Don't Kill It Page #5

---

For Pete's sake.

Hold still now.

Sh*t.

What do we do now?

Call for backup.

This was the backup.

Shut your mouth, Dunham.

He was trying his best.

They didn't listen to him.

If your men knew

how to follow orders,

we wouldn't be

in this mess.

I need your car now.

All right.

Where are you going?

I'll do this on my own.

You need us.

Like hell I do.

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna find it.

Four, five, six,

seven, eight, nine, ten.

Ready or not, here I come.

You suck at this game.

You know I only play

so that you'll leave me alone.

When's daddy coming home?

I told you, I don't know.

He's probably still down

at the town hall.

Who's that?

Who's who?

The man outside.

Get away

from the window, jezz.

Stay back.

Help.

Help.

We need to find him.

Look, I've been thinking this

over. Maybe he was right.

About what?

About me.

Maybe it was my fault.

Maybe I shouldn't even be here.

Oh, come on, don't be a coward.

I got a heart condition.

Snap out of it.

Chief Dunham,

regardless

of what jebediah says,

the fact remains, we need

all the help we can get.

I understand if you feel guilty

about the deaths of your men,

but you don't avenge them

by running away.

You stand

and you fight.

Okay? You stand here, and you

fight with me, chief Dunham.

You defend this town.

Chief.

Chief.

Chief Dunham, hey!

Wow.

What's going on here?

You.

Yeah.

Why did you bring

this evil to this town?

Excuse me?

I do not know what your designs

are in chicory creek,

but I do know

that Evelyn Pierce,

like her mother

before her,

had the blood of Satan

flowing in her veins.

And you are in league with her,

are you not?

You got this wrong.

The important thing is now

you calm these people down.

Why, pray tell,

should we believe you?

How are we to know

that you are not in cahoots

with this hell spawn

that is attacking this town?

You better calm down, padre.

I will do no such thing.

I see it now.

You are Lucifer's mouthpiece,

and Evelyn Pierce

is his concubine.

Aren't you taking

this a bit far?

Be gone.

Be gone, hell spawn.

Calm down.

Be gone.

That's rude.

I'd rather

you not do that.

The power of Christ

compels you.

I'm pretty sure

that's from the exorcist.

Be gone, hell spawn.

And tell

your lord Lucifer not--

oh, no.

Calm down, y'all.

Rubber bullets.

Padre, you all right

there, padre?

You all right?

Okay.

He'll be okay.

He'll be fine.

Merry Christmas.

What do you want?

I wanna help you.

You've helped plenty.

I got it from here.

We're running out of time. Plus,

I'm the one it wants, right?

So don't

you want me around?

That's exactly why

i don't want you around.

Pastor.

Pastor Erikson.

Hey. Whoa, whoa.

Pastor, he's-- well,

he's indisposed right now.

Uh-uh. I gotta see the pastor.

My girl, she's gone mad.

I don't know what to do.

What's your name?

Emmett.

Emmett, tell me

what happened now.

Wait a minute, you're the guy

from the town-hall meeting.

What's going on? Is something

making people sick?

Is my little girl sick?

Emmett,

just tell me

exactly what happened.

I got home

about an hour ago.

There was a man

outside on the front lawn

with a bullet wound

in his head.

And I went inside,

and my little one,

my girl, she's got

a knife to her.

So I tell her to run,

and then she looks at me,

and her eyes were

all black. My girl--

lead me to her.

Come on. Let's go.

Come on. What are you

waiting for? Let's go.

She's down there.

No other exit

to that basement, right?

No, sir.

All right.

How will we do this?

Let me think

for a second here.

If she's possessed,

she in a lot of pain?

That's right.

She sure is.

There's gotta be a way I can

help. How can I help her?

There is a way to do that.

How?

The only way is by killing her.

What? What'd you say to me?

You're gonna be putting her

out of a lot of misery.

I can't.

I can't kill my little girl.

That ain't your little girl

down there no more.

I don't understand.

Wouldn't it just

be the same problems

but inside of me now?

What we're gonna do

is make poison,

you drink it, you go

down there, do the deed,

wait to die, you will

be with your girl.

Wouldn't want her

to be alone, would you?

I can't.

All right. I'll do it.

No.

What--?

What's she going

through right now?

She is screaming,

she's down there.

She's burning up, waiting

for the whole thing to end.

Oh, Jesus. There's

gotta be another way.

I can't kill my daughter,

you gotta understand that.

You listen to me.

You wanna honor

your little girl,

better put her out

of her misery.

All right.

I'll do it.

Come on, Evelyn,

let's make this poison now.

How long will I have to bear it?

Couple of minutes, tops.

Jesus, no.

It's okay. It's okay.

Come on. You ready?

So she'll

be at rest?

Once it's inside you,

it's out of her.

What's it gonna

be like for me?

Well, I'd be lying if I said

it was gonna be pleasant.

Here.

So...

I take this, and i--

kill it.

All right.

I know what I have to do.

Drink it while it's hot now.

All right.

Thanks.

Sure.

Everybody get down

on the ground.

What the hell is going on?

I'm sorry. I thought

they'd give me more time.

You damn fool.

Shut your mouth.

Guys,

I'm not doing too good.

Deacon Shepherd, look,

you're making a huge mistake.

It's nice to see

you too, Evelyn.

Give us a few more minutes.

Let us finish what we're doing.

Then you can take over

the operation.

Is that an order?

Sir, something's

wrong with this one.

What have you done to this man?

Drift leaf, mainly.

It's a poison.

You poisoned this man?

Get him the hell

out of here.

Wait. What exactly

is your role in this?

Go to hell.

Got it. Hard case.

Put him in the Van.

As for you, you go outside.

I'll talk to you later.

Wait. You have no idea--

I'll deal with you later.

Scour these premises.

Jebediah.

Jebediah, i--

don't.

They would've come

even if I hadn't called.

What do they know?

I told them everything. I didn't

think they would believe me.

We'll deal with

this later. Get ready.

Check the door.

Turn around right now.

Un-cuff him.

Don't do this.

Un-cuff him right now.

Hold it.

You idiot.

We have to go now. Now.

Get in the damn car.

You're f***ing dead.

She's got the gun, smartass.

What was that?

It was exactly what I told you.

No, that can't be.

There must be some kind of--

there isn't.

We need you

to cooperate with us now.

You wouldn't touch me.

Without my testimony,

you're both gonna be on the hook

for that bloodbath there.

Testimony? I don't

think you understand

the time frame

we're on here.

I have been shot.

I'm wounded.

First we're gonna get me

medical attention.

Then we'll talk about

what happened back there.

Please, okay, okay.

What happened

while we were outside?

The little girl,

she came out

of the back room.

She-- she attacked--

she killed three of my men.

We fired on her.

And then one

of my guys fired on me,

clipped me
