Terrible Angels Page #4

I love my wife. I go

to church on Sunday.

Yeah, well, if you were

such a good person,

then why did he put

you down there?

I don't know.

You're a good person too, right?

What did you do?

Don't go. Don't go!

Is that you? Lily?

Hello?

Please... help me.

Can you tell me why he

put you down there?

I don't know.

I mean, come on, give

me something here.

Where you from? I

mean, who are you?

My name is Dana...

and my parents are filthy rich.

And if you can help

me in any way,

I guarantee they pay

you a lot of money.

My name's Muriel.

I... I have a son. He's...

he's four.

Do you have any water? Any...

Can-can you get me out of here?

Are you still there?

I think I already told you.

I don't want any.

Hello?

Who's there?

Does it f***in' matter?

Yes.

Yes, it does.

By the way, my name is Sam.

Can you... tell me what

happened here?

There's a spi... Sending

spiders down here!

It doesn't do anything.

Doesn't do anything.

I was on my way back

to my dorm room

and, and he pulled up

and asked for directions,

and that's when he grabbed me.

You're telling me

you have no idea

why he put you down there?

No.

[ LAUGHS ]

Sick, ugly bastard.

I haven't done anything!

I'm a really good person.

Well, there has to... there

has to be a reason.

You did something wrong.

Don't try and f***

with my head!

I'm the one that's in

control, not you!

I don't call my mom

and dad enough.

I don't go see them.

I miss my son!

He's only four.

Please!

Can't stop crying.

I keep beggin' him

to let me go...

and he would just

get mad at me.

[ LAUGHS ]

He would just get

really mad at me.

And he said, "I'm gonna

put you in a box!"

[ MUTTERING ]

I like you. I like you.

No, I can tell real quick

about your attitude.

You'll be box-bound soon enough.

The fact is sweetheart, you're gonna

spend the rest of your days

of existence in a box just like me.

Well, guess what?

Up here, I'm the f***in' judge,

I'm the f***in' jury, and

I'm the executioner.

Okay? I decide your

f***in' fate!

I decide!

Yeah, well, today's the last

day. Today's the last day.

It's your day. It's your day!

[ LAUGHS ]

Oh, you sorry ass b*tch.

How many days before he

put you down there?

Only one.

[ LAUGHS ]

Why do you feel like

bullshitting me?

I'm not bullshitting you.

Did you ever actually see the alleged

people in the coffins?

Yeah.

Well, how'd you

see them? Like,

looking down through the pipe?

Did you see Justice kill anyone?

- Yes.

- You actually saw it?

With your own two eyes?

Well, then, how do you know?

I tried to dig her up.

Lily?

Hey, Lily?

How long did you last up here?

What?

You heard me.

How long until he put

you down there?

Two weeks.

Well, did you have

sex with him?

No.

I don't understand.

You survived out here

the longest.

Why?

I don't know.

Maybe because I did

what he asked me to.

He's not stupid.

He's really good at

reading people.

He knew things about me.

When I wasn't telling

the truth.

Did he make you choose?

I don't wanna talk about that.

But...

I almost escaped once.

- How?

- If I tell you,

you have to promise you'll

never leave me here.

You have to get me out.

I won't leave you, okay?

I promise.

I... I found this sharp rock

and I started using it

but I was afraid I was

gonna get caught.

I'll tell you where it's at but

you can't leave me behind!

Yeah, I promise.

Where is it?

It's under the seat

in the truck.

Promise?

Promise?

Have you found it?

This is gonna take forever.

I want you to do something

for me.

What?

If I die,

will you tell my kids

I love them?

I'm...

I am so sorry for

for everything I put

them through with it.

I-I... I didn't mean

to hurt them.

That...

that I was selfish and...

I didn't know

what love was.

[ SOBBING ]

We don't...

we don't think about what we

do with the time. We just...

we think we're going to live forever.

We think we have all the time to

make everything right again.

[ SNIFFS ]

They're the best thing that

ever happened to me.

[ SOBBING ]

Lily?

I'm gonna get you outta there, okay?

I promise.

[ CAR APPROACHES ]

[ WHISTLING ]

You sleep good?

No.

My back hurts.

So?

Did you decide?

I need more time.

Well, you don't listen

very well.

I asked you to do

one little task

and you just sit there and look

at me like a puppy on a leash.

Well, you really

disappoint me.

You know, it's not that hard, Linda.

See, I'll show you

how it's done.

No!

Hey now, hey.

Shh, shh!

Relax!

Relax! Shh, shh. Shh!

Relax now.

Ooh, just breathe.

Breathe.

Shh, shh. Breathe.

Breathe. That's a girl.

Hey, see?

That wasn't hard, was it?

Why?

Why?

You know what?

Everybody wants more time.

But tick-tick-tick.

It's always going.

It's not waiting on you.

When you sleep.

When you're in those long lines.

When you're at work.

I need to know her last name.

It doesn't stop.

Please, just tell

me her last name!

- It's life!

- Please tell me!

Time waits for no

man or woman.

Hmm.

I need to know her

last name, please.

Well, if you wanted to know...

you should have asked.

[ WHISTLES ]

[ BANGS ]

I buried your wishes.

I wanted to read 'em so bad.

But then I'd be breaking the rules.

And as you well know,

you can't do that.

It's a trust thing.

I really need to know

her last name.

Don't do that to yourself.

Decisions are made and we

have to live with them.

I didn't decide anything.

Oh, yes, you did.

It's cause and effect.

Just because you didn't

make a decision

doesn't mean there won't

be an outcome.

I want us to get off

to a fresh start.

A whole new beginning.

I want you to take this

relationship seriously

and honestly!

If not...

then I need to know

right... now.

Okay, I will.

Oh, Jesus!

I sure know how to pick 'em!

I'm telling you the truth.

It's the same old sh*t.

I've heard it a million times.

All you do is try and

scheme and hustle.

'Cause it's what you are.

Hell, it's what

you're good at.

You know what a pilgrimage is?

- No.

- A pilgrimage

is a journey of great

moral significance.

See, Sam there...

he had nothing to gain

by lyin' to me.

You wanna start over?

Yes.

You know, I've never ever given anyone

this many chances before.

So don't disappoint me.

I won't.

My little angel.

There may be hope for you yet.

Now you... have a

big day tomorrow.

Hmm?

I buried your jars, Linda.

Wishes really do come true.

Sleep tight.

I'll be back for you

in a few hours.

What are you doing?

Where are we going?

Take a look around.

See 'em there?

Just look at 'em.

So innocent.

Filled with unconditional love.

A whole world ahead of 'em.

Just look at 'em.

How do you know about my kids?

I have your purse.

Didn't take much to find

out where they are.

Their new family.

I'll have you know, these

are good people too.

That's a blessing.

See, some foster parents, they're

only in it for the money

and the kids aren't

any better off.

But these two...

well, they're the exception
