Junction Page #3

Synopsis: Michaela, a lost and lonely young woman, gets a mysterious message from the father she never knew, sending her on a journey to discover twisted family secrets. As she uncovers each piece of the puzzle, she descends even deeper into their warped world of pilgrims and pyromania. Dragged out to the desert, and pushed to the very edge, Michaela is forced to make a choice: preserve the delicate web that history has woven for her family, or strike out on her own and destroy the cycle of evil in her blood. That is, if she can survive the fire.

I wasn't crying.

Oh, for God's sake.

No, you said I was a puss.

I'm not a puss.

Did Tai say I was a puss?

I don't feel good...

He's the puss.

Not me.

- I want to go home.

- Okay.

Let's go home.

That's so wrong.

I got 'em.

No!

Who's the puss, now?

What are you doing?

I'm taking charge.

Someone has to.

Don't touch her!

Kari, give me a hand.

It's okay, nobody's

going to hurt you anymore.

My eye, man!

- Leave her alone!

- Shut up!

You knew what he was watching!

You saw those DVDs

and you did nothing!

- Let me go!

- It's okay!

You're safe now!

Okay, she's tied and gagged.

We should tie up

the little girl and go.

No.

You just said you wanted

to go home.

That was before I saw her.

Saw who?

Now what?

The little girl.

I can't leave her.

- Maybe you can adopt.

- Spot!

Serious, I think all the psycho

drug addicts are doing that now.

You don't scare me.

Spot, your eye.

Oh, really?

Get him some ice.

He can get his own ice.

Get him some ice.

Get her some ice, too.

We have to tie her up.

Absolutely not.

She's been through enough

already.

Donald, listen to me, you're

not thinking clearly here.

We're not tying her up.

We can't keep her loose.

There's no controlling her.

I said no.

Look, I know you're upset.

I know you're trying to do

what's best for this girl.

But you don't know these people,

Donald.

We don't know anything

about them.

We don't know this man,

we don't know this woman

And we definitely don't know

this little girl.

Which means they all

have to be tied up.

No.

Donald, be reasonable.

No one touches her.

She's been through enough.

You have one new message.

That's none of your business.

Here, hold this to your eye.

Or not.

- Babe...

- No.

Look, I know we're having issues

right now...

We don't have anything anymore.

I'm a jerk, fine,

and I admit

I'm not always the first

to come up with a good idea.

But it doesn't take a nice,

smart guy,

It doesn't take David to know

this is going to end badly.

Let go of me.

Listen, we can go out

that back door.

We can get the television out

the backseat and go see Tai.

You want to still hate me

after that, fine.

But at least we'll be away from

here and away from Donald,

Away from what is,

I guarantee,

Going to turn into the worst day

of our lives if we stay.

I'm taking this

to the woman you punched.

You do whatever you want.

Stupid.

Central.

I have a car parked

without a permit.

Over.

Uh, hey, Ross.

Just make sure it's not

a resident's car.

We don't want a problem

like last time.

Donald, no matter

what you're feeling,

No matter what

you're going through...

He has to die.

It's okay.

It's okay,

I won't hurt you.

Here, this should help.

Thank you.

What?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

She's a beautiful girl.

What's her name?

Mia.

Her name is Mia.

Mia, that's a pretty name.

What's your name?

Kari.

Kari's a pretty name, too.

Oh, thank you.

What is her gag doing off?

She's fine.

I'm Jennifer.

What's your name?

Irrelevant.

Keep an eye on the brat.

No, no, no,

Donald...

Listen to me, this is the only

way to protect her.

Now I can't make you

feel good

About doing

the right thing here.

You'll have to deal with that

on your own.

Deal with what?

Nothing.

He needs to know.

Know what?

Donald wants to kill that guy.

- You are crazy.

- It's still going to happen.

You want to go down for

this guy, that's on you.

I'm out.

No you're not.

Watch me.

Oh, and this,

this is for my eye.

You want some, too?

Keys.

Give me the keys or I start

hurting everyone.

Last chance.

Enjoy the ride down.

Help!

Okay, okay.

I think we're okay.

No.

No.

You're dead!

Get off of me!

Get off!

Get your hands off of me!

I'll kill you,

I'll kill you!

No.

That's it, that's it, it's over.

Listen...

They have the car.

The television.

There's a way around this.

Eventually, they'll put it

together and we're done,

I'm done.

Look at me!

When we all first met, I should

have made a different choice.

Kari, this...

Listen, I know,

there's never a good time

To say something like this,

But we still have choices,

you and I.

There's still time.

How do we get past Donald?

Last words?

Don't do this.

Noted.

Where's the knife?

Where is it?

You can't do this, Donald.

It has to be done.

What about her?

Her's who I'm doing it for.

You're going to kill this guy

in front of his daughter?

You'll be traumatizing her

for life.

He's right, Donald.

Think.

I'll take him to the basement.

No!

Help me with this.

Please!

What's wrong?

I'm sorry.

What?

Hey!

Get me out of here!

There's no lock.

I need a hand.

Hurry!

David!

Open this door!

David!

Act normal.

Okay.

We have to find out

where the car is.

No, we have to report it stolen.

They'll connect it to the house.

Right, you're right.

We'll report it stolen.

Where do we go first?

My place?

Okay.

Maybe we can get another

television

And then we can

go see Tai.

What,

what's the matter?

Can we just leave Spot?

I can.

I can, too.

That's not...

But, if Donald

gets out of the basement...

If he kills that guy,

Spot's...

We'll make it fast.

And then he can go his own way.

Just you and me.

Just you and me.

David?

Untie me.

Hold on.

David.

Hurry up, man.

David!

David.

Kari.

Look, Donald...

I'm looking, David.

I see.

Where's the girl?

The girl?

It's the craziest thing.

I got locked in the basement,

And when I got out

she was gone.

Imagine that.

There's no reason to...

To what?

Get mad?

I'm past mad.

We were just going

to get the car.

Oh?

Get the car,

come back pick us all up.

Was that it?

Something like that,

more or less!

Hello?

Mia.

Seven.

Uh-huh.

Um-hm, yes.

Okay.

Okay.

It's for you.

Hello?

This is Lieutenant

Charles Tarelli.

Am I speaking to the person

in charge?

They want to talk to you.

Hello?

Is this the person in charge?

You told them I was in charge?

Oh.

Hello?

Hello?

Yes.

Are you in charge?

Yes.

Didn't I speak with you first?

You did.

Why are you telling me

someone else is in charge

When it's you I'm supposed

to be talking to?

Normally David's

in charge.

He has the car.

He drove us here, and that was

his car they towed... oh...

So you're in charge?

Yes.

So, talk to me.

Why would I talk to you?

Because we've got

the entire house surrounded

And talking to me is going to be

your only way out.

What did he say?

We're surrounded.

SWAT's secured the perimeter,

sir.

Good.

Good.

Both neighbors

have been moved out.

Okay.

Outgoing calls on the house

phone have been routed to us

And the psychologist

is on his way.

E.T.A.?

Well, there's a four car pile-up

on the one so...

Right.

- How's my favorite Neapolitan?

- Jimmy.

It's good to see your boys

haven't lost their touch.

Promotions.

Priorities.

Where's our command post?

Find out who has access

to that community center

Up the street

and get us in ASAP.

Yes, sir.

Practice my table hockey.
