Murder in the Dark Page #2

enough self-control

to layoff my daughter?

I just-- I'm not used

to having somebody

just tell me something

straight to my face.

We all know that

she's a grownup.

She's an adult.

Hey, Taylor, let's go.

Taylor, now!

I don't wanna talk, Ajay.

Let's just enjoy it.

We're here, let's

just have a good time.

I want you to--

No, no.

Lily, this is

totally different.

I know, I know, those

times, I flaked out.

But I'm working on

some stuff right now.

I want you to work with me.

This would be great for you.

It'd be great.

It's what I've

always wanted to do.

But, Ajay--

[speaking foreign language]

OK.

Kill you.

- OK.

- I will kill you.

OK.

And you're on your

own with the girl.

I'm not helping with that.

I can't do a thing.

[crickets chirping]

[chatting]

How do you say "that

was fantastic" in French?

C'etait fantastique.

What about in Spanish?

Fantastico.

Fantastico.

In Danish?

Det er fantastisk.

Det er fantastisco.

I could it-- I could do it--

What is it?

(INDIAN ACCENT)

That is fantastic.

No, that's not it!

That's not it!

Oh my god.

That's so offensive.

That's so racist.

You're such a racist.

I'm not, I'm not.

Well, we can play a game.

Yeah.

What do you want to play?

That's a good idea.

It's called Murder in the Dark.

That's so fun.

So for those who

haven't played before.

one person is going

to be the killer,

and we all walk around in

the dark shaking hands.

And then the killer marks his

victims by pressing a finger

into the palm of the hand.

And the point of the game is

to figure out who the killer

is before he can kill you.

And if I'm the killer, you

should know that I'm very good,

and you're all going to die.

No, that's not it.

OK, sorry.

Let's do this.

3, 4.

And if you have the black

cross, then you're the killer.

OK, we can go everywhere.

You ready?

All right, go.

[scream]

[laughter]

Turn on the lights.

Turn on the lights.

There has been a murder.

Which one of you

bastards killed me, huh?

It was you.

It must've been

somebody over there.

Maybe we should do a

second run right away.

Yeah.

'Cause we just were--

OK, let's do it again.

So let's just go back again.

Another round.

Lights off, lights off.

Turn off the lights.

Hey, lights off.

[gagging]

Have we learned nothing?

Who killed Lily?

[laughter]

All right.

My condolences.

It has to be Matthew.

No.

What?

Look at his position.

Wait, you were there too.

No, hold on, hold on.

You were right there.

No, she died right here.

[chatting]

First guy to talk.

Yeah, first guy

to talk, so sure.

OK, everyone who thinks Solo is

the murderer, raise your hands.

Uh-- I'm sorry.

I am not the killer.

Oh.

Told you.

Oh, well.

OK, next round begins now.

Lights off.

Hey, everybody, pay

closer attention.

We don't wanna lynch

another innocent person.

Hey, let's get outta here.

Lights off, lights off.

Sorry, Solo.

[rocks clattering]

Oof, sorry.

Sorry.

[groaning]

Sorry.

Somebody's dying.

[gasp]

Lights on, lights on.

[groaning]

[laughter]

Well, that only

leaves five of us.

Taylor?

Where were you guys?

We were playing.

Kevin, where were you?

I haven't seen you.

How obvious to judge

the hitchhiker, really?

It's so easy.

So?

Why is it not the hitchhiker?

I think it's the person

next to the hitchhiker.

She's being very quiet.

Oh, I can tell.

That is pure guilt.

I don't know.

Look at your face.

You look so guilty.

You look so guilty.

You both look guilty.

I didn't do it.

Oh, that's a guilty look.

That, I can vouch for.

Yeah.

- Who's gonna vote for Taylor?

- OK, OK.

My votes up.

So did you do it?

I can bank on it.

Sorry, sweetie.

Was it you?

Oh my god, it was.

Nope.

[gasp]

Sorry.

Luca, we play again?

Not many left.

I'm gonna pay for that one.

[scream]

[gasp]

Oh!

Oh my god.

Very interesting.

This is weird.

Oh my god.

Ajay, we've won, because it

ain't me, and I think it's you.

It's not me.

Why is it not you?

You would know if it was

me because I start laughing,

and I start, like,

not-- I can't say.

Look, it's not me.

That's pretty convincing.

My flashlight's

not working at all.

OK, so how about you?

Is it you?

Look at me right in the face.

Wait a minute, OK, do it too.

Get the light.

Did you kill him?

Today?

No.

It's not me.

Was it you?

No.

Was it you?

It's Matthew.

It's not Matthew.

Why would it be Matthew?

I'm not a murderer.

It's not in my blood.

If they gave me the

little piece of paper,

I would've refused it, that's

how much I'm not a murderer.

Oh.

I would've just-- the

game would've gone to pot.

I'm a family guy.

Family guys don't kill, OK?

Come on.

How about you?

Did you kill your sister?

You think I'd kill my sister?

I don't know.

She died.

If you're the killer,

you killed her.

She did die very early on.

And you killed her quick.

Never.

She's the reason I'm here.

Aww.

OK, I buy that.

Actually, I buy that.

I don't think you'd

kill your sister.

Second, anyway.

So that leaves you.

I wish it was me,

that would be more fun.

But I didn't get it.

Go on.

I didn't get the [non-english].

I can't--

She's playing the

cute card on us.

But she is cute.

I know, but she's

playing the card.

Don't be fooled by it.

No, I told you,

I'm not a killer.

You got the little

piece of paper.

No, if I got the piece of

paper, I'd have thrown it away.

I would have.

You wanna do it?

- You wouldn't.

- I would have.

You wanna do it?

Let's do it.

Uno.

Ajay, is it you?

Dos.

- 'Cause if it's not you,

it's her.

- Tres.

It's Matthew!

OK, I'm dead.

So did you do it?

No.

What?

No, who was-- ah!

[laughter]

I told you.

[wails]

I told you.

It's so unfair.

[guitar playing]

[singing]

Simone.

Come here.

I love you.

I do.

You do?

I love you so much.

There's something that

I need to tell you.

I mean, whose do you

think this was, you guys?

I wanna see what's in it, man.

Do you think there's any

way we can get this working?

Wait, is there

something like, in it?

Yeah, check inside.

Like batteries?

Wait, wait, wait.

Like here.

Yeah, look.

Look at you.

Do you have a camera?

Do you have something

to put that in?

Yeah, that's what I'm doing.

Meanwhile, I will

snap that photo of you.

I wanna see.

Aww, she's cute.

That's so weird that

they left it here.

She's really cute.

She's cute.

Aww.

So pretty.

I wonder how long

ago they were here.

That's beautiful.

I don't know where that is.

Oh my god.

She looks really scared.

It's weird, no?

Yeah, it is a little weird.

Oh my god, do you see that?

What?

What?

Look.

Look, that's like-- there's

a person behind her.

Are you serious?

That is scary.

Woo.

OK, no, seriously,

look at this.

Stop trying to scare me.

I don't want to

look at this anymore.

Let's turn it off,

and we'll go to bed.

Jeez.

SOLO:
I never said that!

[shouting]

SIMONE:
Say that to my face!

SOLO:
Shut up, you stupid b*tch!

SIMONE:
Stop that!
