Are you okay?

Sonya, are you okay?

I punched it in the face.

Look, let's... Let's get you

some clothes. Come on.

Sheriff

Flemings, please respond.

We got a situation

down at the sugar mill.

Possible 459.

I'm on my way.

All right, we're gonna

stop off at the sugar mill.

And then we're gonna

go check on Joan.

Stay back. Let me take a look.

Okay. I'll be right here.

Just keep your eyes peeled.

What? Do...

Do you see something?

The door's locked.

He's probably around back.

Let's... Let's go around back.

Scotty, the pizza kid.

They swarmed him,

attacked him, and ate him.

Pizza's warm.

It just happened.

Well, you know, maybe he...

Maybe he's wounded,

and he's just hiding someplace.

Is that possible?

Let's check on the guard.

Hey, get yourgun up.

You see anything flying, just

point and pull the trigger.

Hey. You can do this.

Come on.

Damn.

Okay, I gotta

get back to Joan.

Okay? You gotta

call for backup.

Maybe the National Guard,

okay? I really...

I have to get back to

my daughter, all right?

Just hold on a sec.

Okay, just...

Run! Run!

Oh! God!

Run!

Here. Point. Shoot.

Ammo!

Gale, Kansas, look at that.

We don't need to go

to the Palma house.

I mean, I can hear their gunfire.

They're everywhere.

What's with these fools and their guns?

Let's go.

Get down! Get down! Get down! Get down!

Get down! Get down!

Gotta load the guns.

What?

We gotta load the guns!

Here. Where's your gun?

You just took it.

It's in the car.

Oh, they'll be back.

Here you go.

Drop your weapons!

Drop 'em, now!

What, are you

protecting those things?

No. We're protecting you.

You're making

things worse.

Okay, Bruce Lee, feel free

to make things better.

Shooting them

with your guns

is only causing them

to multiply.

They only die

when we kill them.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on. Me and

James have been killing 'em.

That's why they backed off.

They're calm because

they come in waves.

Trust me.

They will be back.

You seriously don't realize

how they are increasing in numbers

every time you shoot them?

What are

those little toys?

These are ancient weapons

that were blessed long ago

and passed down

through our family.

We wouldn't have to be here if

it could happen any other way.

A week ago, there were only two

of the Xigos left on the planet.

Now, because of

all your shooting,

look at what

you have started!

Hey! You son of a b*tch!

What'd you sell me?

I didn't know. I thought

it was just a monkey.

Oh, you didn't know?

I told him that monkey

was bad news.

Yeah, well, your dumb

ass sold it to me.

And you still owe me

for the rest of 'em.

Now's not the time!

Look, I need to know everything

you know about the monkey.

I bought it from that guy

right there at his pet store.

Seemed like a great pet.

It was very cute.

They'd been bonding.

Bonding?

Yeah!

If one's been in your home,

you should be dead.

And you haven't noticed

anything strange about him?

I mean, to me, it... It really

seems like he loves her.

They're killers.

At night they transform and hunt.

They don't bond.

Your house is his nest now.

No matter what he's like during the

day, your daughter is in danger.

We have to get

to your daughter now.

Let's get

the hell out of here!

What about my money?

No guns!

Oh, God!

Get in the car, now! Drive!

Get in and go!

Hong!

Hey!

No!

No!

You know, one minute he wasn't

there and I was taking a shower.

And then, I opened my eyes,

and there he was, staring

at me, in the shower!

I feel so violated.

Joan! You're safe.

Oh, God. Oh, God.

My God, I was so worried about you.

Oh.

This is Yin.

She's hunting Skippy.

Do you have a picture of him?

Of Skippy? Um, yeah.

That's Nikko. Not Skippy.

Who's Nikko?

He would've been the last

if I had gotten to him first.

He leads the others now.

How do we kill him?

With a sanctioned weapon.

All right, aside from using

these blessed weapons of yours,

what do we do?

I mean, there's way

too many out there

to use just

swords and arrows.

He's the oldest

of all the Xigo.

We kill him,

and the rest die with him.

Okay, well, if he's this

first-born whatever-you-call-it,

why didn't he kill me?

Because he likes you.

Nobody's ever tried to

befriend or be kind to them.

They've always been treated as

the monsters that they are.

When he comes for her,

we will be waiting outside.

Are you suggesting

that we go out there

and leave Joan here as bait?

Yes!

No!

He will come back for her.

We have to.

No way!

Dad, I don't think

he'll hurt me.

He let me live

at the gas station

when he could've

easily killed me.

Here. Take the weapons.

Joan...

Find someplace safe to stay.

I will.

Hey, Joan...

Find someplace safe,

all right?

It'll be dawn soon.

So monkey bat will turn into

Skippy when the sun comes up.

Yes. It'll be easier

to kill him that way.

We just gotta wait,

make sure he doesn't see us,

and we'll be

waiting for him.

Get up.

Hey!

Hey! Monkey bat!

Get off my porch!

Skippy!

Where have you been? Been

looking all over for you.

Can you take

a couple of girls?

Joan. Thank you.

All right.

I'm done. All right? I started this.

It's time to end it.

I'm going in there.

No.

Take Sonya and

go someplace safe.

Now. Joan, go!

Let's go.

Hey! You, monkey dude,

your breath stinks.

Get off him!

Come on.

No more monkey business.

You Okay?

Yeah. I think so.

Didn't I tell you

to go someplace safe?

I saved your life twice.

I think you

should be thanking me.

Mmm.

Well, I guess... I guess

we'll call it even, huh?

Yeah, and don't be bringing

home anymore pets.

Deal.
