- I know.

- So you're saying we can just walk out that door.

We can get in the car

and drive away

and whatever that,

that f***in' dog does

it will just magically heal?

No, no, it can't be that easy.

It can! Yes,

it can! Right?

I mean, everything up to

this point has been about

keeping us in this house.

And now it has Izzy.

It's alright. We can make

it, okay? We can do this.

Alright. I'll, we'll send

the cops for Izzy, okay?

- What? Wait.

- Okay?

We're gonna send the cops.

Let's go.

- Wait, wait, Jake...

- Right now!

What if, what if I'm wrong?

- Okay. Alright, you ready?

- Jake, wait, wait.

Izzy!

No!

It's okay. It's okay.

- What happened to her?

- I don't know.

- How did she get out there?

- Oh.

We'll ask her when she wakes up.

No.

Sh*t! F***!

Maybe the blood isn't

real, but the pain is.

We'll never make it out

of the f***ing driveway!

Well, what do we do now?

Get her squared away first.

There's a rope in the basement.

Okay. Did you

see her eyes?

Here. If she moves again,

you hit her with this.

- I'll be right back.

- Okay.

Nice.

- Sh*t!

- What is it?

Nothing!

Just some boxes fell!

What the hell?

F***.

What is it?

Shh..

Nothing. Stay up there.

What's happening?

Hey.

What is this?

I was hopin' you could tell me.

Get her legs.

Hold on.

Okay. Alright.

Alright, here we go.

Okay. Okay. Sh*t.

- Who's the boy, Maddy?

- What?

The boy, who is he?

Oh, my god.

- I think he's my brother.

- What?

Yeah, I, I have a brother

or I... I had one.

- God, how old's this thing?

- I don't know.

I saw a plaster-cast

handprint in the basement.

It said '82.

Oh, my god, he'd be

five years older than me.

You've never seen him before?

No! God, I can't believe they

never told me about him.

- Huh?

- What... what are you.. What are you doing?

- Trust me.

- Wait.

If she moves or if she struggles

it'll choke her, okay?

Where did you learn

how to do that?

- TV.

- What have you been watching?

"Dexter." Listen, what does this kid

have to do with any of this, huh?

- I don't know.

- You don't know?

- No.

- And you don't know what happened to him?

No! God, I didn't even

know he was alive.

That ought to hold.

- But maybe she does.

- Stay right there.

Oh, my god.

Stop struggling

if you wanna breathe.

Alright? Stop struggling!

- Let me go.

- Izzy! Izzy, what happened?

Well... well, let me go.

Izzy, tell us what happened.

What happened, Izzy, huh?

You don't understand.

You didn't see.

Seen what, Izzy, huh?

Seen what?

They're so much older

than you think.

And they're so much stronger.

Who?

Sh... she thinks she got

away, but she didn't.

They don't let her go.

They never let her go.

What are you talkin' about?

And she's not gonna stop there.

She's gonna kill us.

- What?

- What?

I know you're afraid

that she's gonna

turn out like your mother

that she's gonna hide her

vodka in the living room

like she always did

when you were a boy.

What?

What is she talking about?

That she's gonna pass out

at your birthday party..

And that she's gonna

drink herself to death.

What is she talkin' about?

What are you talking about?

Who is this? Did they say

anything about him?

- Is this my brother?

- He had an accident.

What happened?

So many people had accidents

around your mother.

He was in the tub..

And she was supposed

to be watching him.

Oh, oh,

they showed me that, too.

They showed me so many things

and it's all I can see now.

Izzy.

Please let me go!

Not until you give us

some f***in' answers.

I don't wanna see anymore!

What do you mean stop..

What did you mean

they were gonna stop?

- Can you please let me go?

- No.

Not until you give us some f***ing

answers, Izzy! What did you mean?

- I don't wanna see... - what did

you mean they were gonna stop?

- With Maddy? What did you mean by that?

- I don't wanna see.

I don't wanna see anymore.

I don't want..

Izzy, Izzy, stop!

Izzy, Izzy, stop!

She's choking!

She's choking!

Jake, Jake, do something!

Jake! Jake, do something!

Do something!

Do something!

- Do something!

- F***!

Izz! Jake, do something!

Oh, sh*t. Huh.

- I'm coming!

- Oh, sh*t.

- Hurry up!

- Ah! F***!

Jake, hurry!

- Oh, Jake, hurry!

- I'm gonna..

Yeah. Uh..

- Oh, my god.

- Oh, f***! Oh, god.

Alright, get it off.

Get it off.

Oh, sh*t. Izzy?

- Is she alright? Oh, sh*t.

- I think so.

God! Damn it, Jake.

How was it supposed to work?

I didn't know she

was gonna choke herself.

- What the f*** was she talkin' about, huh?

- I don't know.

How could she know those

things about my mother?

I never told anybody that sh*t.

That's what this place does.

It takes things from our minds

and uses them against us.

I saw the boy from the picture.

We never should have come here.

We never should have come here.

We're gonna get out of

here, all of us.

Help me get her up.

Come on. Come on!

Get her arms.

Just hold her there, okay?

- Just hold her there.

- Okay.

Give me her hands. Okay.

Alright.

Alright, what now?

We can't stay here.

Come on.

- What?

- We can't stay here.

Madison!

I'm so sorry.

This is all my fault.

None of this would've ever

happened if we didn't come here.

I should've never

brought us here.

I'm scared, Jake.

Look, she's dangerous, okay?

We just have to keep her

in view, alright?

Get her out of here.

She tried to kill us, Madison.

No, it's just,

it's just using her. Okay?

If we can get her out of here

maybe she won't be like that.

Yeah, you saw how that

worked, didn't you?

We just have to get her

out of here.

It's... it's not her.

No, it's... it's not her

in there.

Izzy?

- Izzy!

- Izzy, no!

Jake!

No! Oh, my god, no!

- No! No! No!

- Izzy!

No! Oh, sh*t! Izzy? No!

- Help her!

- Izzy!

Get some water!

Get some water!

Izzy!

- Izzy!

- Water!

- Get some water!

- Okay.

Water!

Ja... Jake,

you have to stop her.

I've got the water.

Ah. Izzy!

Why did you do this

to yourself, Izzy?

- Oh, my god!

- What? What?

Oh, my god!

I... I can see.

- What? Izzy?

- I can still see.

No!

- Izzy.

- I can still see.

Izzy.

- Izzy?

- Izzy.

I can see..

Everything.

- Izzy.

- Izzy?

Izzy! Oh, sh*t.

Oh, my god!

I think she's dead!

- No, no, no.

- Oh, my god, she's dead!

- Izzy!

- She's dead.

Oh, sh*t.

Oh, my god, she's dead!

She's dead!

- Oh, sh*t.

- Oh, my god!

Oh, sh*t. Okay, okay.

Oh, my god, oh, my god,

is she dead?

No, no, no, no, she's alive.

She's alive.

Oh, my god,

this is all my fault.

This is all my fault.

She said they called you

here for something.

- What did she mean?

- I don't know.

What did she mean,

Madison? Huh?

What did she mean?

Madison, tell me.

I don't know, I don't

know, I don't know.

For a long time

I had, had this dream.

You know, I'm hiding like

like I did that day

but... but this time

she finds me.

No matter where I hide,

she always finds me

and she tells me, "you must die.

Don't you see?

Five must die."
