It scared me a lot, so I came here.

What kind of noises?

Tell Michael not to come into my room.

He is leaving marks of dirty hands everywhere.

Hey, big guy!

Something's bothering you, right?

Hi, Jeff. I was seeing what's wrong with your dog.

You have a new cat?

No, Jeff. We have a new cat,

a bird, a fish, and a jerboa.

We do not have animals.

Maybe you should take your to the vet.

Yes, I'll do that.

A**hole.

Oi!

Get out of here!

But what is this? Get out of here!

- Get out of here! - I just want to help!

- Stop it! Get out of here! - Stop it!

- Stay out of it! - I'm trying to help you!

- I do not want your help! - I'm trying to help!

- Let me go! Stop it! - I hate you!

Get her off me!

- She's crazy! - I hate you, b*tch!

She is sick!

- She is very sick! - B*tch evil!

Your...

- I hate you!

- She eats,

then she comes here and throws up.

She is very sick.

Honey.

- I'm sorry, Dad. - It's okay, come here.

- Excuse me. - No...

Can I go to my driving test?

Promises are promises in this family, right?

You know your MAEM and I are not enemies?

We just want to stay healthy, happy and strong.

Leave all that sh*t back.

We just want to improve, dear.

Sure.

- Look at you! - Growing up!

- Diga oi.

- TV, TV, TV, TV...

- Sure sure.

Oi, querida.

Thank you for staying with him last minute, mother.

Stephanie is not feeling so well,

we need to spend time alone with her.

All right, but at any time, honey. You know it.

- All right, I have to go. - Right.

- See you later. - Do not worry.

Thanks Mom!

- Goodbye. - Goodbye.

Okay, boy.

How about peanut butter and jelly.

I think it's time to see your favorite program.

I'll just end here ...

And Kenzie can keep you company.

Kenzie! What has gotten into you?

Michael, it's best to leave it quiet today.

Mikey!

Bronny, where is your mother?

She's up there under observation.

- I'm Dr. Jones.. - What happened?

The mother of his wife said a snake into the house.

A snake?

When the paramedics arrived, he was gone.

But she was very upset,

then we gave something to calm her.

It's all right.

She said she was hearing strange noises in the room,

but when he arrived, he was alone.

Mr. Taylor, his son was trying to kill her cat.

Do not.

No, no, no. This is not right.

He would never do that.

Oi!

How are you doing? Are you alright?

I'm available if you have questions.

- Right, thank you. - We are in the hospital.

What happened?

I was Mikey,

where I'd hide?

Michael!

Michael! Ei!

Peter...

Get down!

- Dear ... - This has gone too far.

- He needs to learn. Mikey! - Getting angry does not help.

- He needs to learn, come on. - Darling.

- No one was injured. - This time.

Calm down.

- You're scaring him. - He's scaring me.

Look ...

I can handle the count,

to the camp in the living room,

toys on the way to I step,

but he crossed the line, starting fires.

He's getting dangerous.

Why can not you see it?

Honey, I do not ...

Mikey...

What? What is personal ...

- Hello?

- Sammy.

- Oi, o Pete.

- Oi.

Sorry to call so late.

It's all right.

No problem. It's all right?

Yes Yes. I was seeing this last drawing I received,

and is a complete mess.

I think I'll need to do a complete review

and the term, need help. Why would you be willing

to work late a few days, or a weekend?

- What can help.

- Great, see you tomorrow.

Open fire!

Honey, was lucky you have seen when it happened.

because the damage is mostly superficial.

It's just paint again when you have time.

I can fix.

I am very good with my hands.

Now seriously, Peter ...

How did he do that?

I do not know. By accident, I think ...

He was playing and caught fire.

I did not mean it. How he got the matches?

They are in the closet, on the refrigerator.

Maybe we let down, or Stephanie, whatever.

Okay, wait, wait.

- I'm listening. - What I mean...

Do you think it has to do with us? As parents.

Wait a minute, please. Let's not start blaming us.

Children are affected by problems and parental emotions,

you heard Dr. Mitchell.

And these expensive experts never miss it.

You're not listening to me, Peter.

What I mean is ...

Sim?

I think it has something else in the house.

Wait, let's not start ...

How do you explain the matches?

How do you explain the smell? How do you explain the strange sounds?

There are ghosts, honey.

Just Autism Michael manifesting otherwise.

Stop being a sucker and listen.

Stephanie said she heard something too.

Peter, maybe there is something here.

I do not know, perhaps ...

some kind of karma.

Karma?

Karma for what? Bad things we did?

What, dear.

Not really believe this nonsense, is not it?

Can you please,

please open your eyes?

At least one time.

Wait, Bronny.

Defenseless?

when the community ceased to keep their sacred laws.

These beings are in the form of a coyote,

a snake, a raven, a buffalo and a wolf.

They terrorized the population.

Often appearing to children

before taking them away forever.

No, do not bring it to me. Enough.

They are ready for you to review.

Give the rest later tonight.

It's always like that?

Yes, in fact that is the average of panic and confusion

What makes this place so great.

Maybe when this project is done,

you and I can have a coffee,

talk about how it will be going forward.

Maybe I can take some work ...

Maybe we can have a drink ...

Yeah, I thank Sandy, but maybe ...

best if we kept meetings with colleagues.

So no one will miss our bright ideas.

Yes Yes. It's ok. Okay.

- Air these days. - Oh really? I am fine.

To be honest with you, boss ...

judging by his work, it is not.

Your whole team is low 10%.

So...

My question is:
What's going on?

Simon, you need to trust me, right?

You know that the project is complicated

and we will recover us down the stretch, as always,

I promise. No problem.

Well, listen.

So you're the man of the piece.

Hit here.

You are very competent. Was always!

- See you at dinner? - Yes.
