Beth, listen to your mother.

Sweetheart,

I think you'll do great.

People are gonna love you.

You'll see.

How can you be worried?

You're lovable.

Do you want me to

put Daddy on the phone?

I just wish you wouldn't

have moved so far away.

Beth, you didn't just win anything.

You should call the police.

I don't wanna watch this.

I can't watch this, Tom.

He was just a boy.

Emmy, just... They're

just f***ing tormenting us.

That's it. They're just

trying to freak us out.

What is this?

I don't know.

Oh, God.

Who does this?

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

No. No.

Did you see them?

What clues?

What is he talking about?

I don't know, Emmy.

He'll never find... There's

gotta be a clue somewhere.

I mean...

Should I answer it?

I don't know.

What if it's a clue?

Please.

Why are you doing this to me?

Happy Birthday.
