Always Watching: A Marble Hornets Story Page #3

Synopsis: On the hunt for an intriguing news story, a small-town news team follows a crew inspecting repossessed houses. Inside a particularly strange house, the news team discovers a box of video tapes inside a locked closet. Sensing a story, they decide to take them back to their studio. From the tapes, they learn that the family who had lived in the house was not pushed out by the banks, but fled the house in fear for their lives. Trying to decode the story, the crew keeps seeing a faceless figure dressed in a dark suit appear in the footage that causes the videotape to scramble. Their fear mounts when this figure, The Operator as he is deemed, starts to appear in their real lives, standing quietly and always watching them. Tortured and terrorized, the three crew members must track down the mystery of The Operator before it's too late.

Did you survive two years at the affiliated Boston and you are stressed out here?

Well, I... I got to kicked off Boston.

What?

I got to show you guys something. I got to show you something right now.

Charlie, grab the camera.

- Alright, as if. - What are you...?

Two seconds, I got a whole bunch of stuff to show you guys.

I'll look at it. Come on.

Watch.

Alright, come here.

Come here, girl. Alright.

Good job.

- Alright, birthday girl. - Okay, Tara.

- Just like I showed you. - Let me get this.

- Got hairs on your face too. - Milo, seriously,

What is the point of this?

Just be patient, okay? Just watch.

- Alright, let me spin you. - Not much too dizzy.

Turn you around.

What happened to the sound?

No idea, but it happens on a bunch of these tapes.

There. You see that? You see that?

See what, Milo?

Birthday girl's gonna be defeat.

You see? There ... Look, there's somebody standingbrback there by the trees.

- Look. - There. Yeah, there.

Looks like a guy in suit.

Hold on. Alright, just listen.

Rose, I'm telling you.

I look through the camera, he there. I look up, he's not there.

I'm not lying. I don't know how's the put.

Right, because you can only see him through the camera...

I'm not crazy, you've seen it. I don't know how else to...

Wait, what is that? Look.

Right there.

- What is that? - I didn't see it this one.

I didn't see it.

Is that it?

Should we had to stop rewind and show it this tape to the police? I don't understand.

Maybe he tried to and they were just tired enough of them.

In the 60s there was that serial killer, do you remember?

- What was his name? - Zodiac.

- Yeah. - I used to make entire, you know, uh, code messages

and the press to the police station.

- So yeah, one of the most of them was actually... - Oh yeah.

- with this little cross over it. - Yeah.

So ... I don't know. I mean I guess that this guy was not that imaginative.

You can always return an X. It is a similar symbol.

- This guy... is a serial killer? - It could be.

You know, we just found knives clean and blood in the kitchen.

That thing is that the one trade most serial killer is, that

they are somebody for a while and then they choose them.

You know, and if this guy keeps popping up for the kids birthday

in the woods in the backyard, I guess this is ridiculous thing to say.

And in fact I have a friend in the Bureau in Boston.

Let me see if I still have his numbers. Hang on.

Yep. I'll giving a call, to see if something is ringing the bell.

Are you okay?

Hey, is Barbara pissed with us or that just your face looks like this all the time?

- Hello, Barbara. - Hey.

Oh yeah?

Two hours late.

Yeah, well, it's a lot difficult working on two stories.

- Oh, really? - Yeah.

- That's the problem. - Well, it doesn't have to be a problem.

Yeah, you know what? I think we need to get inside and talk.

Alright, we... I mean, look, there's no reason we can't do

- Both this story. - Be my guest. Be my guest.

- Come on, Milo. Let's go. - Me too?

- Yeah. - Really?

Well, I can't believe she pulled this story. That's, that's bullshit.

- I don't know how she runs that place. - Sara,

Remember the guy, uh, from Atlanta, the rare teeth?

- Yeah. - Wait, who is he?

- This dude came from... - Yeah.

A months ago. We helped him out and he kinda owe us a favor.

Look, to be honest, I think this can go in national.

So if you think you got enough footage, then buy on me. Just keep ...

Up here, guys.

Hey, Marty?

Marty. Marty, out.

Out. Now.

- God. - Is this your dog?

He does not understand anything I say.

You know, that's everything on the van.

Okay.

We should've start this from decade ago.

Yeah, who needs sleep or whatever?
