Mirrors Page #5

Synopsis: In New York, the former NYPD detective Ben Carson is hired to work as night watch of the remains of the Mayflower Department Store that was partially destroyed by fire many years ago. Ben became alcoholic and was retired from the police force after killing a man in a shooting. His marriage was also destroyed and now he is living in the apartment of his younger sister Angie.

When he goes to the rounds in his first night, he finds that the mirrors are impeccably clean and his colleague explains that the former night watch was obsessed with the mirrors. After a couple of nights, Ben sees weird images in the mirrors, but due to the lack of credibility of his past, his ex-wife Amy believes he has hallucinations as a side effect of his medication.

They've never hurt anybody.

Please.

Take the photo.

Just take the photo.

Look at them.

I'm sorry.

Who the hell do you think you are?

They're just kids!

- Hello?

- Amy.

- Ben, where are you?

- At the monastery.

- Did you find her?

- Yes.

Yeah? Did you talk to...

- Amy?

- Michael?

Michael?

Ben, hold on, Michael's gone.

- What do you mean?

- I don't know.

I fell asleep with the kids on the bed

and now I don't know where he is.

Michael?

Amy, what's going on?

Is everything all right?

Oh, f***.

Amy, what's going on?

Have you got Michael?

Oh, my God.

Ben, there's water everywhere.

Oh, my God.

You've got to be careful of the water.

It creates reflections.

Someone is in the house.

Someone scraped all the mirrors!

Amy, where is Michael?

I don't know. I don't know where he is.

I don't see him anywhere.

Amy, listen to me,

you've gotta stay away from the water.

Get the kids

and stay away from the water!

- Michael?

- Amy?

Amy? Sh*t!

Which room is she in? Which one?

My family is not dying tonight.

You are coming with me.

Michael?

Daisy?

Daisy, come here.

Come here, Daisy.

Mom?

Come here, sweetheart.

What are you doing in there?

Everything's going to be all right.

No!

No! No!

Daisy!

Come here! Get down!

Get down, right now!

Get down, sweetie. Get down.

Oh, my God, are you okay?

Oh, my God! Stay right there.

Don't move, baby! Don't move!

- Mom, why did you do that to me?

- It wasn't me, sweetheart.

You know I would never hurt you.

You know that.

Here. Hold this. Hold it tight.

Okay?

Here, get down, sweetie.

Let me see. Let me see.

Let me see, sweetie. It's gonna be okay.

All right? I know it hurts. Stay right there.

All right. Give me your hand.

I need you to hold it really tight, okay?

Just flat and tight, just like that. Okay.

Now, I need you to listen to me,

okay, baby?

- You have to be very brave.

- Okay.

I need you to stay here

no matter what happens.

No matter what you hear. Do not move

from this closet until I come back.

- You understand me, right?

- Yes.

Okay. Okay.

Do not move. I love you.

Don't move.

Michael?

Michael?

Where are you?

Michael?

Michael!

Michael, what are you doing?

Don't be scared, Mommy.

He just wants to play with us.

Michael, I want you to drop that knife,

right now.

Do you hear me?

You know very well you're not allowed

to play with knives. Don't you?

Come on.

That's a good boy.

Give me the knife, Michael.

Michael! Michael!

Michael?

Michael!

Michael!

Michael?

Michael.

Michael?

Why are you hiding from me, sweetheart?

Michael?

You okay? Come on.

It's waiting for me downstairs.

Bring me inside. From now on,

I have to keep my eyes closed.

Step up. You're in the room.

Strap me in.

I spent the darkest days of my life

in this room.

Are you sure there's no other way?

This is for your family, Mr. Carson.

For your family.

Michael?

Michael? Michael, look at me.

Michael! No, Michael!

No! Give him back to me! Give him back!

No!

No! Get out!

Come on, Michael!

No!

Please. Please.

You must go now.

Thank you.

No!

Why?

Give him back, please!

Give him back! Give him back!

Michael!

No! No!

Michael?

Oh, my baby!

Come on.

One, two, three...

...five, six...

Thank God!

Thank you. I love you!

Anna?

Anna?

Come out, you b*tch!

Oh, my God.

Oh, my baby.

I love you both.

I love you, guys.
