I don't need your f***ing help!

Run away.

She is much hotter than me.

I give up.

- You are insane!

- Dad, stop it!

Just stop it!

You stay here with her.

Try to calm her down.

I'm gonna try and get help.

Do you believe me about nails?

We'll both stay here.

- Get me the wheelchair.

- No, don't!

Get the, the needle.

Ah...

Gemma, my neck.

I can't do it.

- Oh my god.

Come on.

Get up.

I'm too heavy.

Just leave me.

- I'm not leaving you.

Get up.

You are not going to die here.

Now help me.

- Ash?

Ash, where are you?

Jesus Christ,

what a f***ing night.

Ash?

- Mom, I can't see

where we're going.

- Gemma...

- It's okay, mom, I'm okay.

Is anybody there?

Hello?

- Mom?

- Mom?

- Just do it.

- Mom, I can't hold you.

Mom, can you hear me?

Mom?

- Help!

Please, somebody help us.

My mom is injured.

- No, please, just leave me,

will you leave me alone.

- Who's there?

I've been buzzing

and no-one's answering.

- I'm sorry.

I can't help you.

- Please, please.

Please don't leave me.

- Mom?

Mom, can you hear me?

Mom?

Hello?!

- What on earth

is going on here?

My god, Mrs. Milgrom,

what happened to you?

What are you doing out of bed?

- Please, we have to go.

He's coming.

- He who?

You're bleeding.

Your face is cut.

- Please, just take Gemma.

- No, I'm not leaving you.

- I don't know what's going on,

but your mother needs medical

attention immediately.

And you may need a sedative,

young lady.

Jesus Christ!

You're as batshit crazy

as your mother!

No.

What are you doing?!

Open the door!

- I love you.

I will always love you.

You're...

You're so beautiful.

And you are so brave.

- And I will never

let anybody hurt you.

- Mom, don't do this.

Open the door.

Mom!

Stop it.

Please!

- Can you hear me?

Can you tell me what happened?

Do you know who did this to you?

- It was nails.

He killed her.

He killed my mom.

- Who is nails?

- I don't feel safe here.

Someone in my room

last night watching me.

Take me home.

Please.

I want to go home.
