You must be sleeping.

It was a big night.

Oh, Andrew.

I haven't changed you since you got here.

Let's get you cleaned up.

I hope you're just sleeping, Andrew.

I feel like I'm by myself again.

(dramatic music)

Shh.

You have to be quiet.

You're not here yet.

(doorbell rings)

That might be you.

May I help you?

- Hello, I am from Foundation Star Energy

and we think that you

might be paying a little

too much for your eclectic bill.

- [Agnes] Oh I hope not.

That would be awful.

- Well can I take a

look at your last bill?

- [Agnes] Of course, come in.

I would like you to meet my brother.

(phone rings)

Hello?

- Hey is this Agnes?

- Yes.

- Hey it's me Darryl.

Do you remember me?

I was with your brother

when they brought him home.

- I remember.

Hi, Darryl, how are you?

- I'm good.

What are you up to right now?

- I'm a little busy at the moment.

Why do you ask?

- Oh wondering if you

wanted to go for a walk

or grab some dinner or something?

- Oh.

I'm afraid I already have dinner, Darryl.

- Oh then I guess maybe

some other time then?

- Maybe.

- It's beautiful tonight.

- Is it?

- Yeah.

So I guess I'll let you go then.

- Okay.

Goodbye, Darryl.

- Bye.

- He seemed nice, but I don't

really have time in my life

for boys.

Never did really.

I'm the kind of woman

they used to make fun of

on television.

Spinsters, they called us.

You don't really hear that

word too much anymore.

I'm not ashamed of the choices I've made.

It's rarely a good idea to

dwell on what could have been.

Speaking of choices, I looked

up Foundation Star Energy.

They're a scam organization,

did you know that?

They aren't the only ones.

I get five or six people

a week coming to my door,

claiming to be from the power company.

My point is you probably should have been

a bit more discerning

when choosing your career.

Not that it matters now.

Best not to dwell.

Did you know you were

here before you were here?

Isn't that something?

I heard you.

Didn't sound like you of course

but I'm certain it was you.

I told you to be quiet.

Do you remember?

You really had no business

being here before you were here.

It's rude frankly.

But then you showed up so I

suppose it doesn't matter now.

My brother wants to meet you.

You aren't going to like him.

He's going to like you.

He likes pretty girls.

He likes them even better

with their clothes off.

Boys are funny like that.

All they want is what's under our clothes.

He just wants a warm

place to put his thing.

Andrew is no exception.

But he's my brother.

And I want him to be happy and healthy.

I get scared sometimes.

But I would do anything for him.

Oh he's awake.

You stay right there, I will go get him.

- [Man] Hey.

- Yeah?

- This movie is terrible.

- Yeah.

- Why don't we watch something else?

- It might get better.

- I don't think so.

They front-loaded this thing with tits,

that's never a good sign.

- I don't want to put

on anything I have to

pay attention to.

- Hey did you call that girl?

- Yeah.

- And?

- She was acting real weird.

She turned me down.

- Oh yeah?

She tell you to go f*** yourself?

- No.

- Hey, so you going to try again?

- Maybe.

We'll see.

- I'm looking for something else to watch.

- I'm watching this.

- [Man] Yeah but by the

time I find something,

this will be over.

- Fair enough.

- I'm getting a beer before

I come back, you want one?

- [Darryl] No thanks.

- Tell me something, why

do you always go after

difficult girls?

- Define difficult.

- You never date regular chicks.

- Because there are no regular chicks.

Everybody's got sh*t.

I got sh*t, you got sh*t.

- You know what I mean

though, you like weirdo's.

- That's inaccurate.

(laughing)

- Oh yeah?

Name one girl you've dated

that wasn't on mood-altering

prescriptions.

- Leslie wasn't.

- Well Leslie should

have been, because Leslie

was f***ing crazy, she was a bunny boiler.

- She was all right.

- Oh yeah, you guys still friends?

- F*** no.

She set my laundry on fire.

- [Man] There you go.

By the way, I am absolutely

just amazed that one

human being could amass

so many shitty movies.

It's like you do it on purpose.

- I do do it on purpose.

That's what I like.

- [Andrew] Where are we going?

- [Agnes] I told you I had a surprise.

Her name is Charlotte.

- [Andrew] Let me see her.

(dramatic music)

- [Agnes] Is she pretty?

- [Andrew] You're pretty, Agnes.

She's trash.

Not even human.

- [Agnes] Can't decide if

it should be quick or slow.

- [Andrew] Slow, definitely slow.

- [Agnes] I took her clothes off for you.

I knew you would like that.

I wanted you to be able to see.

- [Andrew] Cut her.

Cut her for me.

(dramatic music)

Her blood is such a beautiful hue.

- It's the color of roses.

- [Andrew] Just like roses.

(dramatic music)

Do you want to pop her eye?

- I do.

I really do.

- [Andrew] Do it, I want to see you do it.

Make it hurt, I want her to hurt.

- I felt it.

I felt the bone.

I wasn't sure I could get through it.

But I did.

- [Andrew] Good girl.

I want to taste her.

Let me taste her.

- Good?

- [Andrew] Very good.

- I'll go get the syringe.

- [Andrew] I want it in my mouth.

I want to taste it.

More.

Yes.

I can feel it.

It's working.

Watch my eyes, Agnes.

I'm coming back.

(dramatic music)

- Will you stay awake for a while?

I get lonely when you sleep.

- [Andrew] I'll sleep when you sleep.

- I have some questions for you.

- [Andrew] You can ask me anything.

- I want to know what it's like.

Does it hurt?

- [Andrew] It hurt at

first but now it doesn't.

I can't feel much of anything really.

After the accident, it

was like tumbling through

a void for a long time.

- How long?

- [Andrew] Years I think.

Then I started to hear mother's voice.

I started to see light in the blackness.

It was like falling passed

brightly-lit windows.

Just blurs and flashes.

They passed and I would watch

them shrink into the void.

Eventually I started concentrating.

By sheer will I slowed my

fall, util finally I was

looking directly into one of the windows.

It was so bright it hurt.

I pushed towards it.

I willed myself to move through it.

That's when I saw her.

I saw mother.

She was crying.

She was sitting in her

chair in the living room

in her night gown crying.

Every ounce of me wanted

to go to her, to hug her,

to fix things, but I couldn't.

That's when I started screaming.

I screamed and screamed for

her but she couldn't hear me.

I slipped back into the darkness.

My awareness came in bursts.

Suddenly I would be in front

of the television watching

a movie, then I would be in

bed staring at the ceiling.

Then I would be back in the living room.

Every single time I screamed for mother.

I just wanted her to hear me.

But then I started screaming for you.

And then I started feeling you.

I would call your name

and then feel the hairs

on your neck stand up.

I would feel the shiver down your spine.
