Animal Page #4

You sure?

I don't see anything.

I'm positive, Carl.

It's right there.

T-Ten yards ahead of you.

Dude, just don't go any further.

Looking.

Don't worry.

It's not close enough for me to see.

Matt, this is your shot.

Let's do this.

I love you too, baby.

Carl, I'm coming now.

Uh... I, uh... I...

Uh, it-it-it ducked

behind a bush, I think.

You think?

You're gonna have

to focus, Sean.

Okay, it's there.

It's there, I think.

I can't see.

I lost it. I'm sorry.

It was there... It was there a second ago.

I definitely saw it.

Where?

It's, like, right ahead of you.

What is it?

What's going on?

Matt. Matt!

It's...

It's... coming.

Fall back.

Fall back!

- What are you doing?

- You heard him. It's coming.

Yeah, but they're gonna

have to get back in.

I know, but we cannot let that thing in.

They're coming back in.

Guys, I'm outside.

Open up.

My husband's out there.

Vicky, you have to understand.

Guys, I'm here.

This is our best chance.

Open the door, d*ckhead!

- Shut the f*** up!

- Listen, Vicky... Vicky!

- Hello!

- What's going on?

I don't know.

Carl!

Vicky, listen to me!

Doug, open the door.

We can't take the chance.

It's what's best for us.

Douglas, open the door!

Open the door!

Mandy! Alissa!

Oh, my God!

Guys! Guys! Guys!

I know how hard it is.

Carl! Carl!

Guys, open the door!

- Carl! Carl!

- Vicky!

- Don't!

- Carl! Carl!

Vicky.

Vicky, can you hear me?

- Guys, please open up!

- That's it, a**hole!

Stay back, or I'll bash your skulls in,

so help me God.

No one is opening

this f***ing door!

- Guys! Guys!

- Vicky!

Vicky!

Vicky!

Carl. Carl.

Carl, come in.

Carl, do you copy?

Kitchen door.

Carl, do you copy?

Carl, come in.

Carl, do you copy?

Copy. On our way.

No, no, no!

Oh, my God!

Get it, get it, get it!

Oh, sh*t, Carl.

Thank God...

You gotta be shitting me.

Hey! Hey!

You're gonna have

to keep it down.

That thing will

hear you, remember?

You're kidding me with this, right?

It's a joke.

What do you think you're doing?

Protecting the others

from monsters.

Really funny, Carl.

Call me what you want,

but I did what was necessary to survive.

I was willing

to make the tough call.

You can't save everyone, Carl.

You'll... You'll try,

but we'll all die.

You know, at least

I can cope with reality.

At least I can see

the forest from the trees.

Who's the monster now?

Huh?

Hey.

Liss?

Alissa.

I can't stop.

If I do, I'll think about what

that thing might have done to him.

Or relive watching

what it did to Jeff.

But if I keep my eyes here

and I focus,

I can imagine

what I'm gonna do to it.

I'm gonna kill

that thing, Mandy.

I'm not gonna run anymore.

I'm gonna kill it.

I don't know how, but I will.

Or at least let me think I will.

I'm pregnant.

Whatever it is you're thinking,

count me in, okay?

I just wanna get

our asses out of here.

Sean?

Hey.

What's the name of that song...

that David Bowie

and Freddie Mercury sang?

You know...

It's a famous duet.

Uh...

Oh, you know,

it's like really...

It's on the tip of my tongue.

I'm, like, blank. I'm, like, an idiot.

Are you okay?

Under pressure Oh, my God.

I'm such an idiot.

You know, I'm sorry. It's been,

like, stuck in my head all night.

You know, and I just...

I've had to run for my

life twice tonight.

Like, that's twice more than

anyone will ever have to do,

like, in their entire lives.

You know?

And it's just, like...

You start thinking

about all this weird sh*t.

about, like, your life flashing

before your eyes or something.

But, like,

that's... it's not been my experience.

My experience is,

like, thinking, like,

"What was the last song I listened to on

my iPod?" Like, Taylor Swift. Really.

Like, that's gonna be

the last thing I hear?

Like...

Remember junior year...

when I was breaking out,

like, horrible.

Remember I was, like, using a lot of

foundation? Going through a period.

I stole, like, 99%

of that from the MAC store.

Like, you start thinking about,

like, secrets, you know.

Like... Like sh*t you don't wanna die with,

you know.

Like secrets you

don't wanna die with.

Or like secrets

that other people...

have to die with.

We're gonna get out of here and we're

gonna forget all about this place.

Mandy, um...

I was... I was

in love with Jeff.

Of course you were.

Who wasn't?

No, like,

I was in love with Jeff.

That's great. Let's just drop it.

No, no, please.

I need you to hear this.

I-I-I can't be buried with this.

You're not getting buried at all,

so let's just drop it, okay?

You had a gay crush on my boyfriend.

That's fine.

Okay? He's dead now.

Oh, my God.

Like, how can you even talk like that?

I don't wanna talk at all.

I wanna drop it. So does Alissa.

Right?

We get it, Sean.

Just move on.

It wasn't one-sided.

- Look, I know this is not the appropriate...

- You're an a**hole.

- Please, Mandy, I'm just trying to...

- You're an a**hole.

- I'm not an a**hole. I'm just trying to tell you the truth.

- You're lying.

Why... Why would

I ever lie about this?

- Then why are you telling me this now?

- I'm just trying to tell...

Why are you telling me now?

What am I supposed to do about this?

What do I do with this

information now, Sean?

- I'm just trying to tell you before I can't!

- Stop!

The both of you.

We can't do this right now.

Is anyone else hearing this?

- What's that?

- Hey!

Hey!

Matt, is that you?

Matt, where are you?

Where are you?

Is that a battery?

No, it's a page.

He's trying to tell us something.

He could be anywhere.

But that's impossible.

Is that...

Close.

I'll help.

Somebody untie me. Hey!

Wherever he is,

that thing is probably with him!

- Oh,

come on, you gotta be kidding me.

He's in the cellar.

Sh*t.

You're not seriously

going down there, are you?

I have to.

But, Alissa, what if he's...

He's alive.

You heard him. Here.

But what if he's barely alive?

How does that make a difference?

Give me that.

You swing better with less in your hands.

You guys are insane.

Wait. Hey, Al...

Uh, is it okay if I...

Can I sit this one out?

I don't think I can do it again.

I know.

Thank you.

You do realize that thing tried

to leap out of there earlier.

- If you open that door...

- Stop!

Here are your choices.

You can come with me

or you can stay here.

I don't trust you

to do anything else.

What'll it be?

That's what I thought.

If anything happens to me,

my blood is on your hands. You hear me?

On your hands!

Okay, you guys, ready?

Here we go.

You close the door behind us.

No, no. I'm going with you.

Vicky, no.

I'm going with you, Carl.

You can't come with me.

I can't... I can't keep running.

Stop. You gotta stop.

Carl, I'm going with you.

Stop.

No!

Stop!

I know you hate when people

tell you what to do,

but I can't very well go down there

and tell that thing who's boss...

if I have to worry about you.

I'll be safe if you're safe.

Okay?

Let's go.

Shh.

It's kerosene.
