- Shh.

You're all shaken up.

Are you okay?

Hey, Denny,

I've been meaning to tell you.

You know, I never

did get a chance to thank you

for what you did for me.

-What?

-You know, I'd be in prison

if it wasn't for you, right?

Hey. Hey, hey, hey.

- No, man. It's okay.

We gotta go. It's not..

That's not important right now.

It'll be okay.

Everything's gonna be okay.

-What are you..

-You're an excellent kisser.

Every time I saw you at school..

I imagined..

Bashing your face in

with a hammer.

-Why did you hate me so much?

-Because you exist.

-Make it stop! Make it stop!

I'm gonna buy a paper doll

That I can call my own

A doll that other fellows

cannot steal

And then the flirty

flirty guys with their..

-Oh. Well, look at you.

All cleaned up

after today's festivities.

I brought you a sweet.

-Oh.

Dad? Dad?

-It's good to see you.

- Dennis.

-Mom.

- Take this.

Ah!

This is in you!

This is who you are!

You must accept it.

- Dad! Just do

what he f***in' says, Matt!

No! No, stop!

- This is, this is who you are.

-No! Stop!

-It's time, Caleb.

- Son.

-Uh.

-Mom.

-Yes, it's me.

-Ah.

There will be beauty here now..

Because of you.

Your father..

Would be so proud.

-I've missed you so much.

- And I've missed you,

too, Dennis.

We can be together again.

You know how.

You've thought of it before.

Do it.

Do it.

Do it, Dennis.

- No!

No! No! No!

No! No! No!

No! No! No!

Oh, what's happening to me?

-Everything here is a lie.

-Stop, Ina!

- This place twists you.

It changes you.

It feeds our insanity..

Our tragedy..

And regret.

- The Lord

has delivered you unto me

and I will take

thine head from thee!

- Jess. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Jess.

Jess.

- It was all my doing!

My darkness! My dirtiness!

Agh! Kill me!

Do it now!

Agh! Kill me!

-No!

We're trapped here

because you refuse

to see the truth.

-Lies! Lies!

I am dirty! Dirty and broken!

- You are not the one

who did this to me.

-No!

-Come here. Jess, don't.

Come on. I'm right here.

Look at me, come here!

Come here!

Jess! Look in my eyes.

Jess! Look at me. Come here.

Come here! Jess! Jess!

You look in my eyes.

Look in my eyes right now.

Look in my eyes. Come on.

Look at me. Look at me, Jess!

Come on. Come on.

There you go. There you go.

Look at me. Look at me.

There you go.

I'm right here. I'm right here.

There you go. I'm right here.

There you go.

Come on, there you go.

-Caleb.

-Argh!

You're the Devil!

Agh!

Agh!

-Connor, don't! Connor!

-Stick it in, boy!

- No!

No! No!

-I was born before your Gods.

Living in the never-ending

shadows

of your sweet,

black... misery!

-Enough!

-Uh-uh, ah!

-When are you coming to bed?

- Now just close your eyes, Ina.

-Okay.

- It's time for us to leave.

-I'm sorry.

-Oh, f***, okay.

Here.

- Okay. We gotta go. -Hey, listen

listen to me, listen to me.

-Come on, we gotta go.

- Listen, you guys

were never here.

- What do mean?

- You gotta go.

- No, man. -No, we're not

leaving you, Caleb.

- They need a reason not

to come looking for all of us.

- Caleb.

Caleb.

- Come on, Denny.

- Caleb, come on.

- Just help me.

- Come on.

- Come on, Jess. Let's go.

-Wait.

- There's nothing here.

There's nothing here!
