Oh, right, 'cause there's

something here watching us.

Well, there's definitely something.

I... I feel it.

I feel something, I'm telling you.

JULIE:
Yeah, I feel something, too.

I'm not gonna lie.

I feel a camera.

The earthquake, and all those...

I don't know,

stuff that's been happening and...

I don't know, I just...

No, it's totally normal.

(SIGHS)

Bye, camera.

Good night, camera.

(KISSES)

(CREAKING)

(PATTERING)

Yeah?

Yeah, probably.

In their bedroom.

Be quiet, so we don't wake Katie up.

(WHISPERING) It's okay.

Why?

Oh.

Yeah, kind of.

He's very sweet.

Yeah, I saw that.

I watched some of the tapes

on the camera

and I saw you

talking to somebody late last night.

If you saw me talking to somebody,

it would be Toby.

(CHUCKLES) Toby's your friend?

Yes. He's my friend.

Yeah, what do you guys talk about?

Mmm, secrets.

- He's big?

- Mmm-hmm.

So, is he old, like Grandma,

or is he young, like you?

He's old, like Grandma.

And what does he look like?

Is he tall? Is he fat?

He's tall. He's tall.

Don't call him fat.

Kristi, when you say that

if you tell one of your secrets

that you'll be in trouble with Toby,

what does that mean?

Well, I won't be safe.

He's gonna...

Did he say he's gonna hurt you?

No.

But I won't be safe.

That means, I will be, like...

Be in very, very big trouble.

Big trouble.

DENNIS:
You saw her.

JULIE:
That's how it is.

It was like he was actually there, right?

I know.

Because that's how active

kids' imaginations are.

It's crazy.

I mean, imagination is one thing.

She got up in the middle of the night.

I mean, it's a little odd

that she got up in the middle...

You haven't been around kids

for that long. They do weird things.

They... Katie used to get up

in the middle of the night

and she used to sleep on the toilet.

(LAUGHING) What?

Okay? I'm serious.

Really?

Yes. Toby is a phase and he's going to

be gone in a couple weeks.

I know it.

RANDY:
How many hours of footage

do you have?

This is the job, man. I got two cameras,

six hours each. Twelve hours.

- Twelve hours of footage?

- Yeah. Got to do it, man.

- I'm seriously gonna review it.

- ...of footage every day.

Yes. Now, please,

I'm trying to concentrate.

That's so stupid.

There's only 24 hours in a day, Dennis.

- RANDY:
Hey, Julie.

- ...going?

DENNIS:
Um... Good.

You want to step into my office

and do some work with me or...

No. You find anything?

RANDY:
Yes, actually.

We did find something.

We found that

your family sleeps all night. Oh!

Very funny, Randy.

- Keep up the good work.

- DENNIS:
Okay.

I love you with all of my heart and soul.

I love you, too.

It should either be called

Back to the Past...

RANDY:
Present. Back to the Present.

- No, no.

- End of story.

- That doesn't make any sense.

- It makes total sense.

Let's Get Back to the Present, maybe.

But Back to the Past...

- Back to the Present.

- (SIGHING)

(THUDDING)

- You hear that?

- Yeah.

(THUDDING CONTINUES)

- Was that... That's it.

- What the hell?

It's happening again.

Come on.

(SHUSHING)

(CLATTERING)

- Did you hear that?

- Yeah.

(METAL CLINKING)

RANDY:
(WHISPERING)

It's in your closet.

(KNOCKS)

- (WHISPERING) Are you getting that?

- Open it.

- Are you getting it?

- Yeah, I'm gettin' it.

- (ROARS)

- (MEN SCREAM)

RANDY:
Holy sh*t!

(LAUGHING)

Holy sh*t! That's not funny.

(IMITATES SHRIEKING)

- RANDY:
Oh, my God. You're both crazy.

- I got you guys so bad.

- Oh, oh, I got you.

- RANDY:
You're both crazy.

I got you good.

I got you, too. Are you okay?

Just go ahead

and take your crap right there,

'cause I nearly crapped my pants.

Holy f***!

You almost gave me a heart attack.

- Oh, my God, get away!

- (LAUGHING)

- Get away from me.

- Are you okay?

Get away. I hate you.

(KRISTI AND KATIE

TALKING INDISTINCTLY)

DENNIS:
Wow. Look at that tent.

Gosh. I like this tent.

KATIE:
"...and disguised his voice

to sound like Little Red Riding Hood.

"The poor old woman, before she could

even scream, the wolf gobbled her up."

Hello. Shh. Hey, guys.

- How you doing?

- Good.

- DENNIS:
Good.

- That's a little bright.

I'm sorry.

Guys? I got you a little...

- Mmm!

- KATIE:
Give it to me.

Hey, guys. Don't tell Mom, okay?

- BOTH:
Okay.

- All right.

What are you guys doing?

KATIE:
You'll see.

We've got a little surprise for you.

- One, two, three!

- ...two, three!

- Oh! Ow! Come here.

- (BOTH LAUGHING)

Here, tickle torture,

tickle torture, tickle torture!

(ALL LAUGHING)

That's enough.

You guys are locked in the dungeon.

All right. Good night, girls. I love you.

- BOTH:
Love you, Dennis.

- Love you.

(DOOR OPENING)

(FOOTSTEPS PATTERING)

(SWITCH CLICKS)

(FOOTSTEPS)

(SWITCH CLICKS)

(FOOTSTEPS PATTERING)

(FOOTSTEPS THUDDING)

Dennis. Dennis.

- What?

- Listen.

- What?

- Shh!

I think the girls came inside.

I'll go check on them. I got it.

(SWITCH CLICKS)

Girls?

(SWITCH CLICKS)

Dennis.

Dennis?

(GASPS) Don't do that to me.

- Sorry, sorry, sorry.

- You scared me.

Did you check on them?

Why is this door locked?

Did you lock this?

What's the matter?

JULIE:
We're just checking on you guys.

Move that light.

We're gonna move inside, okay?

- I want to stay here.

- Why?

I'm sorry. It's gonna be fun inside,

too, though.

Come on. Get your stuff.

We're gonna camp inside.

- Mommy. Why?

- What?

KATIE:
Dennis, will you film me?

- DENNIS:
Yep.

- I wanna show you something.

You know Spud Webb?

One, two, three, slam dunk!

- Whoo!

- Very impressive. Very good.

Thank you. Thank you.

Katie, are you sure you didn't sneak

into the house last night?

My gosh, I pinky swear,

- I did not go into the house.

- Okay.

You wanna do me a favor?

Can you tell your mom that?

LOIS:
Where's Dennis?

Uh, he's out, buying more tapes.

With your credit card?

Mom.

He doesn't have any money.

That is not true.

The girls love him.

I mean, they just about think

he's the coolest guy ever.

I mean, I really, really do like him.

I mean that.

It's just that the girls miss their father.

I don't know.

I wish he were

a little more financially secure.

He is financially secure, Mom.

He has a job.

- He shoots wedding videos.

- No. That's... No.

- He has his own business.

- (SIGHS)

You know? It's a whole different thing.

My God, Mom. I just told you,

I don't want to have any more kids.

I'm not gonna get pregnant.

You always said

you wanted a big family.

I changed my mind, okay?

I have two beautiful girls.

- You always wanted a son.

- (SIGHS)

I'm happy with the way things are.

Let's go.

(CREAKING)

DENNIS:
What the...

F***.

(LOUD BANG)

DENNIS:
Oh, this is great. Hang on.

That's great! Katie, that's great.

You're doing really good.

- Thank you.

- Let her go, Jule.

RANDY:
Dennis, I totally

believe in this sh*t.

DENNIS:
Randy, watch the language.

All right, nice and slow.

My brother saw one once.

- DENNIS:
Really?

- Yeah.

What's Bloody Mary?

You don't know what Bloody Mary is?
