[gasps]

[panting]

[sobbing]

[thunder crashing]

[loud banging]

[water dripping]

[door slams loudly]

- DAVID?

SO YOU KNOW...

WHO I AM?

- YES.

- HAVE YOU BEEN LOCKED UP

IN THAT ROOM ALL THESE YEARS?

- HE TAKES ME OUT.

SOMETIMES.

- HAS HE EVER TAKEN YOU

OUT HERE?

- YES.

- THIS IS WHERE I USED TO COME

TO THINK.

MOSTLY ABOUT YOU.

I NEVER STOPPED:

LOOKING FOR YOU, DAVID.

- I KNOW.

HE PITIED THAT.

- HE'S A MONSTER.

YOU KNOW THAT.

ALL THESE YEARS...

NOT KNOWING WHETHER

YOU WERE ALIVE OR--

- I'M FINE.

HE TAUGHT ME.

HE'S A GOOD FATHER.

- WHAT DID HE TEACH YOU?

- HOW WEAK PEOPLE ARE.

YOU TAKE ONE SIMPLE THING

AWAY FROM THEM,

AND THEIR LIVES:

ARE NEVER THE SAME.

THEY CRUMBLE.

HE NEVER WANTED ME

TO BE LIKE THAT.

- AND ARE YOU,

LIKE THAT?

- NO.

- YOU LOOK JUST LIKE YOUR MOM.

DO YOU REMEMBER LIVING WITH

YOUR MOM AND ME?

- YOU'RE CLINGING TO A LIFE

THAT DOESN'T EXIST ANYMORE.

- THAT'S ALL

I'VE HAD TO CLING TO

THESE PAST 13 YEARS, SON.

I AM GONNA BEAT HIM.

YOU KNOW THAT.

- YOU CAN'T BEAT HIM.

WHY DO YOU THINK

HE'S NEVER BEEN CAUGHT?

- HE'S A DEMON.

- AND WHAT DO PEOPLE,

ALL PEOPLE,

HAVE TO CONFRONT?

- [sighs]

THEIR DEMONS.

IS THAT WHAT THIS NIGH IS ALL ABOUT?

- YES.

TONIGHT,

YOU GET CLOSURE.

[thunder crashing]

- HELLO?

IS ANYBODY OUT THERE?

COME BACK.

[static and beeping]

- 23-09, GO AHEAD.

- MAKE SURE THEY GET HERE.

I'M GONNA GO ON THE ROOFTOP,

OKAY?

- OKAY--WAIT!

JUST BE CAREFUL.

OKAY?

I LOVE YOU.

- I LOVE YOU TOO.

- I WANTED TO TELL YOU THIS

EARLIER AT THE OFFICE,

BUT YOU RAN OUT SO QUICKLY.

I DIDN'T GET A CHANCE--

- WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

- THE DARK STRANGER...

THAT'S THE BES THEY COULD COME UP WITH.

OF COURSE THEY COULDN' DESCRIBE HIM.

HOW CAN YOU DESCRIBE SOMETHING

YOU CAN'T SEE?

IT HAS TO JUSTIFY

THE AWFUL DEED IT COMMITTED.

THEY COULD NEVER EXPLAIN HIM

BECAUSE THEY NEVER

TRULY SAW HIM.

THEY COULD SENSE

HE WAS WITH THEM.

BUT HOW CAN THAT BE EXPLAINED?

- HE'S NEVER BEEN CAUGH

'CAUSE HE'S ALWAYS THE PERSON

YOU'D LEAST EXPECT.

- LISTEN, HE'S JUST--

HE'S MESSING WITH YOUR MIND.

I MEAN, THIS IS ONE

BIG F***ING NIGHTMARE, OKAY?

- [sobbing]

THIS ISN'T A NIGHTMARE.

- IT'S ALL GONNA BE OVER SOON.

IT'S ALL GONNA BE OVER SOON.

LISTEN, I NEED YOU HERE,

OKAY?

JUST UNTIL BACKUP GETS HERE.

I LOVE YOU.

ALL RIGHT?

I GOT TO GO HELP DIAMANTE,

OKAY?

- GO, GO.

[thunder crashing]

- YOU SAW HIM TONIGHT,

'CAUSE HE LET YOU.

HE'S GIVING YOU THE CHANCE

TO FORGET YOUR OLD LIFE

AND LIVE THIS ONE,

IN THIS MOMENT.

- SO WHERE IS INKUBUS NOW?

DAVID.

- WHERE HE ALWAYS IS.

- REALLY?

- YOU SURE

YOU'RE THINKING STRAIGHT?

- I'VE NEVER THOUGH MORE CLEARLY IN MY LIFE.

- YOU'RE NOT GONNA KILL

YOUR SON.

PUT THE GUN DOWN.

- SHUT UP.

I'M CALLING THE SHOTS NOW.

YOU TOOK EVERYTHING

FROM ME.

WELL, ALMOST EVERYTHING.

YOU SEE, YOU NEVER REALLY TOOK

FULL CONTROL OF MY MIND.

I ALWAYS FOUGHT YOU.

- NO, YOU'RE WRONG.

HE'S IN YOUR HEAD.

- NO, NOT ANYMORE.

YOU KILLED MY WIFE

AND MY SON.

- DAD!

- DON'T CALL ME DAD.

YOU ARE NOT MY BOY.

[spits]

- CAPTAIN, DROP THE GUN NOW!

- IT'S ALL RIGHT,

DETECTIVE.

I FIGURED IT OUT.

IT'S OVER.

- THAT'S GREAT.

JUST TAKE IT EASY.

DON'T DO ANYTHING CRAZY.

JUST LOWER THE GUN, SLOWLY.

- CLOSURE, RIGHT?

IT ENDS TONIGHT, DEMON.

- NO!

[gunshot]

NO!

[gunshots]

[thunder crashing]

[explosion]

[police sirens wailing]

- IT'S HORRIBLE.

HORRIBLE, YES,

BUT...

THE FACTS ARE:

YOUR WIFE THAT DIED IN LABOR.

AND YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT.

- [scoffs]

YOU'RE JUST LIKE

EVERYBODY ELSE.

YOU ONLY HEAR:

WHAT YOU WANT TO HEAR.

YOU THINK I'M A F***ING LOON.

- HOW CAN WE BELIEVE YOU,

TOM?

HOW CAN WE BELIEVE

THAT DEMONS:

ARE RIPPING PEOPLE'S SPINES

APAR:

AND CUTTING PEOPLE IN HALF?

HOW ARE WE GOING

TO BELIEVE YOU?

- THERE'S EVIDENCE THERE.

- THE TRUTH IS THA YOU HAD A TRAUMA.

THE TRUTH IS THA YOU LOST A BABY.

YOU LOST PEOPLE:

YOU LOVE VERY MUCH.

AND YOU ARE DEALING WITH I BY FABRICATING ILLUSIONS

AND MAKING UP DEMONS.

YOUR MIND IS CREATING

A REALITY THAT YOU CAN LIVE IN.

YOUR WIFE DIED IN CHILDBIRTH,

TOM.

SHE HEMORRHAGED.

THEY ATTEMPTED A C-SECTION...

- DEEP BREATHS AND PUSH.

- AND IT FAILED.

BUT THE MORE YOU LOOK

AT THE COLD, HARD FACTS

FOR WHAT THEY ARE,

THE MORE YOU CAN ACHIEVE

CLOSURE...

- HONEY, HONEY, HONEY!

- REAL CLOSURE.

- THIS IS BULLSHIT!

MY WIFE DIDN'T DIE

IN LABOR.

IT WAS HIM.

EVERY 100 YEARS,

HE FINDS A HOST,

AND THAT HOS HAPPENED TO BE MY WIFE.

YOU DON'T UNDERS--

NO, AGAIN, I'LL TELL YOU!

THE DEMON CAME OU OF MY WIFE'S STOMACH.

- TOM,

DO YOU REALIZE:

HOW THIS SOUNDS?

- THERE IS A DEMON OUT THERE!

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!

I TOLD YOU A MILLION

FRICKIN' TIMES!

ONE MORE TIME,

THERE IS A DEMON OUT THERE!

HE IS KILLING EVERYBODY!

THERE IS A DEMON--

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

YOU NEED TO TALK TO ME NOW!

YOU WANTED TO TALK.

WE'RE GONNA TALK.

THERE IS A DEMON OUT THERE.

GET OUT OF HERE!

THERE IS A DEMON OUT THERE!

I'M TELLING YOU!

THERE IS A DEMON!
