Hello!

This isn't real. This isn't real.

This isn't real.

It's not real. No! This isn't happening!

This isn't real.

No!

Miss Woodson?

She rips out her own hair before she

slits her throat.

Now I've been on this job for 25 years,

and that's a first for me.

Is there some shitty new drug we

don't know about?

They never took anything.

What I want to know is where you got

the elevator footage that you posted.

For the last time, I'm not posting any of this.

Well the good news for you is we can't link

your IP-address to any of these videos.

We can't find any address at all,

which doesn't make any sense.

Unless you're familiar with our IT department.

It all has to do with this girl.

You really know a lot of dead people,

Miss Woodson.

I don't think this was a suicide, Laura.

I think it was a ritual.

Um... that... what you're looking at here,

these are black mirrors.

They've been used in the occult for

thousands of years.

And they say if you stare into it,

you can communicate with some other

side. It's called scrying.

But sometimes, these witches,

if they were being hunted, if they didn't

have any other way out...

they would hang and burn themselves in

front of a black mirror,

and become something else.

Call it whatever you want, an evil spirit...

um... a demon.

The point is how they got revenge on people

by possessing them and haunting them

and killing them.

How'd they ever stop it?

It says they had to find the original mirror,

the one they burned themselves in front of

and destroy it.

You mean...

her laptop.

It's her black mirror.

We need to find out where she killed herself.

What?

There has to be something here.

Something that can help us.

I think I'm going home.

I can't handle this.

I'm so sorry for everything.

- Please don't go.

- Sorry.

I can't.

- Paying your respects?

- Disgusting.

You're late.

Why is everyone talking about you.

What have you done to this girl?

I haven't done anything to her. She just...

attached herself to me.

Now everyone thinks that...

Please, baby I want you home.

You're coming home with me.

I can't, I can't! I have to stay and

figure it out.

Figure what out?

...suffered serious injuries. Police have

a suspect in custody. But are not releasing

any information until they complete

their investigation.

Moore's Grove. It's a deserted farm town

about two hours away.

There was a fire there about 20 years

ago at some weird commune.

Marina's mother, Ada Nedifar lived there until

somebody burned the whole place down.

What?

They kept some husk of her body alive...

until Marina was delivered.

She was alone in the womb for months.

Jesus, she was always alone.

Do you think this is where she went

to kill herself?

It's the only lead we have.

What's going on with her profile?

What's that on there?

Leave me a thing.

Something's wrong. Something's wrong.

Stop right here!

Oh my God!

Olivia!

- Olivia...

- Help...

Get out! Get out! Help her!

- Help her!

- Help...

She's stable. She might actually make

it through this.

Even if she does...

Marina's never gonna stop.

Sh*t.

Just stay here.

Stay with Liv. Please.

Don't let her be alone.

Where are you going?

Whoa! Someone had a rough day.

What happens if there's still people living

there? What is this place now?

I don't know.

No matter what, I'm finding that laptop

and I'm gonna f***ing smash it!

- Kobe?

- Yes?

- Thanks for coming with me.

- Who says I'm doing it for you?

Where the hell are you? The cops are

asking me a million questions.

I... I'm going to Moore's Grove. I'm sorry.

Don't go there alone!

I... I'm not alone. I'm with Kobe.

I'm coming to meet you.

So? Where is she?

I don't know, man. Bad reception.

Alright. Keep trying.

Sh*t.

- Charming.

- Yeah.

Thanks.

Sh*t, there's no service.

What are you so f***ing nervous about?

You're going to be fine.

- What are you talking about?

- Well she wants to make you lonely.

If that's true, you're the only

one that's safe.

Hi, sweetheart.

No, no Chinese noodles.

No, no, no. I said NO Chinese.

No Chinese. I said...

No, I mean... Sure, we could have

Chinese.

Yes.

From the one down the...

Wait, I'll call you back.

Don't shoot. I don't want to die.

Please please...

Jesus.

Really?

Laura?

- Kobe.

- What?

She's not here.

Did you check the basement?

What basement?

Kobe?

Kobe?

Kobe.

Kobe.

What's wrong?

I'm sorry.

She can't make you lonely if

you're dead.

Laura!

Laura!

Hey, it's Laura. Leave a message.

What do you mean you don't know where

she is? What happened back there?

Hey dumbfuck I'm talking to you!

What happened?

Listen to me. If you touch her, I'll f***ing

kill you. Now where the hell is she?

She's absolutely fine!

We are completely f***ed!

She's just peachy.

- Tyler...

- Thank God!

I thought something happened to you.

I just texted you an address.

Laura? I... I can't hear you.

You're breaking up.

Tyler?

Are you sure you don't want me to

take you to a hospital?

Take me to the factory.

- I still think we can beat this.

- Shut up, man.

Seriously.

You have no idea what we're dealing with.

- I do. I saw where we're headed.

- Shut up, Kobe!

- I saw it.

- Shut up!

Are you telling me you're willing to

die for her?

Because we've all been dying for her!

Stay in the car.

Mom.

Laura, where have you been?

I can't reach you.

Mom, are you okay?

I'm seeing things, Laura.

I keep seeing that girl.

I'm sorry... it's my fault.

What's happening to us?

Listen to me. I'm not going to let

anything happen to you.

I'm going to sort this out, somehow.

I'm going to stop it, somehow.

Mom?

- Mom! Mom!

- I'll protect you.

Mom!

Mom!

Mom!

Laura!

Laura!

Tyler.

Tyler.

I was so worried about you.

Laura, hey.

Laura, look at me.

- My mom, she's...

- Jesus, what happened to you?

Hi.

What do you want from me?

What else do you want from me?

I just want to be friends, Laura.

Best friends.

Forever.

Laura.

Laura.

Come to me.

Come to me.

Come to me.
