The Diabolical Page #4

---

Well, you do know that CamSE Holdings owns the mortgage on your home.

We'll get the ball rolling and have you

and your family out of here in no time.

That doesn't make sense.

Okay, play it again.

There, there. Do you hear it?

- It's a pattern.

- We need to isolate it.

Okay, play it one more time.

What is that?

- What are those?

- Sequenced intervals.

- Is it energy output?

- No. No, not this.

This is too... No, it's too regular.

It's repeating,

like it's on a constant loop.

Jacob, go downstairs.

What is Project ECHO?

- What?

- What is it?

How did you hear about ECHO?

Why didn't you tell me

that you worked at CamSET?

Madison, the work

that I was doing there was horrible.

I was afraid that if you found out

about the things that I'd done,

you would hate me or I would lose you.

I didn't want that, Madison. I'm sorry.

What exactly were you working on?

- Are you part of this?

- Part of what?

They're doing this!

Doing what? What do you mean?

You were experimenting on people.

No. No. ECHO wouldn't be

possible for another 40 years.

- This teleportation is impossible.

- Then explain this.

Madison, look. This isn't me.

Okay? The state...

They offered us volunteers...

that were prisoners,

were injured or worse.

No one at CamSET cared.

I tried to stop them, I swear.

I just found out too late, Madison.

Let me help you.

Okay? I know what's going on.

I can show you what's happening.

The patterns... The patterns that

I've been measuring from your house...

They've been coming up

regular intervals,

constantly looping over and over again.

- What do these numbers look like?

- Coordinates.

Right.

Look at this first one.

Okay?

Now, look at the second.

- The signal is coming from CamSET.

- Exactly!

CamSET is trying to force us

out of this house.

They're expanding here.

We need to shut them down.

No. No, you can't.

- Watch me.

- No, no. Madison, you don't understand.

You can't.

What's happening

isn't happening right now.

Like I said, it was 40 years out,

even in our most optimistic projections.

The prisoner that's coming here?

He's coming from the future.

And I don't know how to stop that.

Then we'll kill them.

Don't touch any of these.

Hey. I mean it.

Jacob, if you need to.

Come on.

- Jacob...

- I know, Mom.

Haley. Hey.

I need you to be brave. Okay?

I need you to listen to your brother.

And no matter what,

do not come out of that basement

until I come for you, okay?

Mama, come with us.

I can't. I will be back so soon.

Okay? I love you.

Go! Go.

Ms. Heller.

Ms. Heller, I brought

the contract with me.

Goddamn it. Ms. Heller...

- 911, what's your emergency?

- Help me.

Help me!

Hey!

Hey, over here! Come on!

What's happening?

It'll be okay.

Madison, you have to kill it.

Are you okay? Are you okay?

Ma'am, step away from him.

Sebastian to backup, 1214 Woodbine.

Officers, there's a man

outside trying to kill us.

Ma'am, what's the situation here?

Officer, my kids are in the basement.

Please.

Haley! Jacob! Come here, baby.

Ma'am?

Are you okay?

What's going on in there?

No!

Stay away!

Go away!

Mom!

Hey.

No.

Why?

Oh, my God. Oh, God.

No. No.

- Hang on. Hang on.

- Mom?

Madison. Hey. Hey. Hey.

Hang on. Hang on.

Okay? It's going to be okay.

You stay with us.

Hang on.

Hang on.

Haley. Haley, get over here.

Press down right here.

Okay? Not too hard.

- Can you do that?

- Yes.

Jacob, you watch him.

(SOFTLY) Hi.

Come on, Mom.

- Shh. Shh. Shh.

- Mama.

It's okay. It's okay.

Hey, hey, hey. You stay with me.

- Mama, stay with us.

- You stay with us, please.

- I can't.

- Yes, you can.

- Yes, you can.

- Someone needs to stop this.

Hey.

Don't.

We need you.

Jacob, you won't understand right now.

Please stay.

Mama, stay.

Come here. Come here.

Mom's gotta do something.

Come here.

Yeah, that's it.

Nice and easy now, Jacob.

Man, they said not to call these guys

by name 'cause their brains are scrambled.

Don't let the file fool ya.

He's got something going on up there.

It ain't much, but...

it's something.

Hey. So you think

he knows what's going on?

Maybe. They've had him

here for the past 40-some odd years.

They caught him trying

to blow the place up.

- No sh*t?

- Yeah.

Something about revenge for his mother.

I mean, the things they

put this guy through, man.

- Turn your blood cold.

- What are they doing today?

They're going to teleport my man

about 10 miles away from here.

Should be quite a sight.

Yeah, they tried this with some others,

but it wasn't quite so pretty.

This man can usually take

whatever it is they dish out to him.

This little ride would be

a piece of cake for him.

Stop!

Nothing to see here.

Please get back in your homes.

Jacob, come on.

Let's go upstairs.
