No, ma'am.

In all honesty, I do not.

- It's Courtney.

- Okay, Courtney.

Do you mind if I come back here tomorrow

and have a look around?

No, but on one condition.

- Anything.

- Nobody gets to know that we're here.

No one.

I don't know who I'd tell.

Good.

Goddamn it. Damn it!

Karen! Karen?

Boys, let's, uh...

Let's get ready for bed.

Brush your teeth.

Can we just watch till the next commercial?

- No, now.

- Come on!

I don't like it when you boys

watch stuff like that before bed, okay?

It's not real, Mom. It's

okay if it's not real.

Yeah, but it'll still give you nightmares.

So let's go, come on.

Brush your teeth.

What did that man want today?

- Uh...

- Was he one of Daddy's friends?

No, no, no. He was just

looking for something.

Was he here about what

happened in the church?

What do you mean what

happened in the church?

We know about the church, Mom.

We're not stupid.

Hey, who told you two about

what happened in the church?

We just heard about it.

Yeah, everyone knows.

All right, well, I don't want you two

thinking about that, okay?

Dylan? Is that why you're

afraid of the church, baby?

You don't have to worry about that, okay?

There's nothing in that

church that can hurt you.

Hey! Hey, you guys.

Hey, hey, okay, okay.

Okay, okay, come on.

Brush your teeth, let's go.

What happened in the church?

What?

What the...

What...

What?

Come on. Let's watch another.

No, I don't want to watch any more of them.

Hi, Emma.

Are you having the dreams?

We all had the dreams.

The movies make the dreams go away.

Once you watch them all,

you never have a bad dream again.

For real?

Swear.

Let's watch another.

No. I don't wanna watch any more movies.

But you have to.

You haven't watched the best ones yet.

Besides, you won't have

any more bad dreams tonight.

Or tomorrow if you watch another.

Good night, Milo.

You aren't so special, you know.

- What?

- I can see them too.

You aren't so special.

Aren't you gonna say anything?

Hey, answer me. P*ssy.

Zachary Collins, what did

you just call your brother?

- Nothing.

- Don't you tell me "nothing".

Okay, remember what I told you boys?

Speak only when spoken to,

and tell you what he asks us.

So here it is.

The scene of the crime.

So how were they killed? Do you know?

Unfortunately, I do.

Tell me.

Trust me, you don't want to know.

Uh...

I'm gonna look around in

here for a few minutes.

I'm gonna compare the space to

some of the crime scene photos.

Yeah, sure. Uh, please.

Come back to the house

if you have any questions.

I will.

Thanks.

Okay.

Oh, you gotta be kidding me.

Oh.

Come on.

What?

Oh!

Hello?

- Deputy?

- Well, I'm not really on the force anymore.

No, right. Of course, I'm sorry.

Who is this?

I'm Dr. Stromberg. We

spoke a few months back.

You're like, the new

Professor Jonas or something?

God, I hope not.

Jonas is missing.

The police just

called off the search.

Well, what happened to him?

Look, I need you to, uh...

to come out here as

soon as possible.

Uh, I'm a little tied up

with something right now.

Look, Jonas left...

he left something behind.

Something unbelievable.

I think it could be

the key to all of this.

Then tell me.

No. No, no, no. I can't-I can't risk that.

- Not on the phone.

- Okay.

- I'll be there tomorrow.

- Yeah, okay, that's good.

Great, thank you.

Hey.

Dylan, right?

How do you like it out here?

Be better if I didn't live

where so many people got killed.

So how you dealing with that?

I get it.

I'd be scared too.

And I'd have nightmares

in a place like this.

You having nightmares?

Yeah.

Yeah, I have really bad

dreams too sometimes.

About dead people?

A friend.

What do you do?

To stop the dreams.

Well, when I'm awake, I try to help people.

You know, make the real world

a little less like the dreams.

You let me know if the dreams start to feel

a little too real, you know?

I'm pretty good at dealing with nightmares.

Oh, no.

You cut your hair.

Bastard.

How dare you show up here?

What the f*** is this?

I told you this would happen.

Told you I'd come for 'em.

No, no, this is bullshit.

You don't have a court order.

- You can't do this.

- Step aside, ma'am.

You need a court order.

Boys, get back in the house!

- Step aside.

- Get back.

- Ma'am...

- No, you can't do this!

- You need to step...

- Let's see the order.

Step aside, sir. Now.

Who's the officer in charge?

I'm in charge, a**hole.

Okay, okay, Officer...

Shermer. Where's the sheriff?

We're state troopers.

We don't have a sheriff.

- Now if you could...

- I know, I know. I can read the car.

I know that you're state troopers.

But I also know that

child custody transfers

is the responsibility of the sheriff.

And I can tell you from experience

that the only reasons that

the sheriff isn't here today

is because he either doesn't know about it,

or he doesn't want to know.

So, you want to call him? You know what?

I'll call, I got it. Don't worry about it.

Sir, put the phone away

or I'm gonna throw you

in the back of the car myself.

Are you saying that you'd arrest me?

In a heartbeat.

Well, then I should probably inform you

that I was arrested a few years

ago on a big capital offense.

It was a major news story.

All the charges were dropped.

But if I were to be arrested again,

that'd be pretty big news. Yeah.

Whew! If the press got a hold of it...

Ugh. I would hate to be the uniform

that was trying to make a child abduction

look like a custody transfer.

State cars and everything?

That just might be the

worst day of that guy's life.

Sir.

- Let's go.

- Gary? Hey.

I'm not leaving without my boys.

Look, that douche canoe

over there is right.

We don't have any legal

authority to be here.

He called our bluff.

I'm sorry, I can't lose my job over this.

I got kids too.

This isn't over.

Whore.

Thank you.

Thank you so much for doing that.

It's, uh... it's really no problem.

We gotta get outta here.

What? No, no... No.

- No, no, you, um...

- What?

You can't leave.

- Why?

- Uh, did you, um...

Did you have a restraining order?

No. No.

He had too many character witnesses.

I was lucky I got custody.

You have to stay because those officers

can testify that they saw you here today,

and if you leave overnight, then...

he will have a case that

you're a flight risk.

And he could get the boys.

Yeah. Yeah, he could.

But you saw him.

He'll come back.

Will you stay?

Maybe just... for dinner?

Sure.

Sorry, I, uh...

They're used to...

Clint always ate first.

Well, I'm not Clint, so go ahead, eat.

So, were you a cop or something?

Oh, yeah.

A sheriff's deputy.

So you saw dead bodies and stuff?

- Zachary.

- What?

Cops see dead bodies.

That's okay. Um... Yeah, I did.

More than I'd like.

- Did you catch...

- Did you catch a lot of bad guys?

Uh, not bad guys. Just people.

Having bad days.

But you're not a cop anymore.

- No.
