A Haunting at Silver Falls Page #4

---

I need to talk to her alone.

Like the others.

So...

How's little doc Parrish?

- He's an a**hole.

So what do you tell

the giris that come here?

- Depends.

- On what?

- What they tell me.

- Are you afraid to die?

- Holly wasn't afraid to die.

She's a good girl.

She believed in God.

Heather, on the other hand,

she was afraid

that she'd be forgotten.

She had a mean streak,

that one.

- Is that why you killed her?

Is it hard to take off?

- What's that?

- Your ring?

- No.

- Mine is.

- Where'd you get that?

- Found it.

- Why do you wear it

on that finger?

- I guess I picked

the wrong one.

- Last time I saw my giris,

they were on a school bus.

Holly... holly pointed

to her ring,

Heather to hers,

and me to mine.

We bought these

at a flea market.

Holly liked the idea

that it was one ring

and we each got a part.

Three parts to a whole.

I never thought that'd be

the last time I'd see my kids.

Put that on when you go home.

Watch out for Heather.

She's not the same

since she died.

My giris are trying

to tell you something.

I don't know what it is,

but you better listen.

- You're innocent?

- Guards.

- Wait, what am I supposed

to tell Dr. Parrish?

- Tell him what he wants

to hear.

Tell him you don't see

the twins anymore.

[Door buzzes]

- He doesn't have to stay.

I'm not gonna kill myself.

- He's just doing his job.

And we'll be right down the hall

if you need us.

- God, I can't believe

Wyatt killed his own kids.

- He was a sick man.

- Do you have anything

that might help me sleep?

I hate to ask.

It's just been such a long day...

- I have just the thing.

- I guess he's dead now.

- Here you go.

You'll sleep for hours.

And I'll let you sleep in.

- Thank you.

- For what?

- For taking the time to care.

- Good night, honey.

Both:
You're next.

- [Screams, gasps]

- I'm going into town.

Do you want to come?

- I kind of just want to veg.

[Telephone ringing]

- It's Robbie.

Are you two friends?

He has a past.

- What kind?

- The "no means yes" kind.

- Um, got it.

- I'll be in the living room

if you need me.

- Hello?

- I know you're not crazy.

- How?

- Come with me to silver falls.

I'll show you.

- Show me what?

- I can't tell you.

You just have to see it.

- Did the other giris like it?

- This is about you, Jordan.

- Right.

- Meet me behind your house

in an hour.

But don't tell 'em

I'm picking you up.

- Don't come near me.

- You have to trust me here.

[Beep]

- Hey, you okay?

I don't feel right

leaving you here.

- I'm fine.

Besides, Kevin's here.

- Morning.

Did you want to try?

- Sure.

- If she's gonna let me.

I'll get you a log here.

All right.

You want to do,

you want to put the blade

where you're gonna strike.

Slide this hand

up a little bit.

Raise the ax.

And go for the kill.

Very good.

Want to do it again?

All right.

Let's try this guy.

Okay?

Nice.

Feels good, right?

- Yeah.

I just have to catch my breath.

This is a lot of wood.

- O'Leary gives us a better deal

if we buy it in bulk.

- Sheriff O'Leary?

- Yeah.

Everybody buys their wood

from him around here.

It's a little side business.

He says

it's for Robbie's college fund,

but I think it's for bail.

- Like father, like son.

- He's a good man.

He just lets Robbie...

- Get away with murder?

- Better watch what you say.

- I thought

you didn't like them.

- It's important to keep the law

on your side around here.

To keep an eye on your enemies.

- Right.

- You want to do another?

- I'm gonna go take a break.

Lie down maybe.

Money.

- I really wish

you hadn't opened that drawer.

- We promised we weren't

gonna do this anymore.

- I didn't have a choice.

- We stopped.

- Do you really want to argue?

She already wrote the note.

It's just another suicide.

- You want a new plaything.

- Why do you do that?

Why do you always make this

about me?

- Because, Anne, it usually is.

- I wonder if she's still out.

- Don't change the subject.

- I'm not.

- Okay.

We dump her in the lake.

- Why would we go to the lake?

We've always gone to the falls.

Stick to the falls.

- You talk to me

like I'm a kid.

- Oh.

I thought you liked it

when I did that.

- Holly, enough with the lights.

- So you still talk to her?

Do you see her?

- No.

- But you think about her.

You still fantasize about her.

That's why she's still here.

Because you can't let her go.

- I let her go a long time ago.

I let them all go.

But you...

- I love you.

- I love you.

- We don't have to do it

right away.

- Not really my type.

But if you want to...

I'm game.

[Knocking at door]

- Larry, she doesn't want

to see you.

- Look, I just want

to say I'm sorry.

- She's not going

to forgive you.

She's very depressed.

We're worried.

- You have

to let me talk to her.

Look, I shouldn't have said

those things in the woods, okay?

And I started it.

I realize that.

But I didn't mean to.

- Good night, Larry.

You're not being a gentleman.

- I could just talk to her

through the door.

- Kevin.

- Jordan is upset.

- Can I just say it

so she can hear?

And then I'll leave.

You guys

were in high school once.

You remember how it is.

- Then you'll go

and never come back?

- Yeah.

- Tell her from there.

- Is she in her room?

- Mm-hmm.

- Jordan!

Jordan, I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

So sorry.

- You said that.

- I didn't mean

to break your trust.

I just didn't want to lose you

like the other giris.

I wanted to save you.

That's all I wanted to say.

- Good night, Larry.

- Help.

Help!

Help!

Help!

Help!

- Jordan, honey,

nobody can hear you.

- Help!

- Eggs, bacon, cheese,

toilet paper...

- Vodka.

I want vodka.

- Vodka.

- It's been so long.

Do we need a tarp?

- Garbage bags.

- Sleeping pills, bleach.

And gloves.

Plastic gloves.

- Do you want a blade?

- We'll use the mallet.

- Anything else?

Sweetie?

Anne?

Maybe you should go.

- No playing till I get home.

Or mommy would be very angry.

[Car door opens and shuts]

[Engine turns over]

[Car drives away]

- It's okay.

It's okay.

Jordan, sweetie,

come on.

Come on out.

Please?

Okay, I'm gonna take

these cuffs off.

Come on out.

We have to hurry.

I want to take the cuffs off.

Please.

But we got to hurry.

We got to hurry.

I need you out now.

Please.

Come on.

Trust me.

Come on.

Come on.

Listen.

Turn around.

Okay.

Okay.

I got you, baby.

Okay.

Okay, you can go.

Go on.

Go.

- You're not gonna kill me?

- Anne's out of her mind.

Go.

I said go.

- It's locked.

- It shouldn't be.

- Well, it is.

- Try harder.

- I did.

[Rattling]

You said

you were gonna let me go.

- I just did.

Come here.

Isn't that better?

See, Anne,

she's all about the pain.

Me, I like pleasure.

Come here, come here.

There you go.

You're okay.

Look.

Jordan, hey,

hey, hey, hey, hey.

Shh, shh, shh.

This is our playtime, okay?

All right, I need you

to do something for me.

I want to play a little game.
