I love you, lisa.

I love you so much.

Listen to me, lisa.

Man's voice:

Listen to me, lisa.

I have something

to tell you.

Woman's voice:

I have something

Listen to me.

I have something

to tell you, lisa.

Man's voice:

I have something

to tell you, lisa.

- Mama?

- ( gasps )

oh, god!

What are you

doing up, sweetie?

Did you have

another bad dream?

I dreamed

about a swing.

Is there one

at the new house?

Well, if there isn't,

I bet your daddy might

just put one up for you.

( chuckles )

Come on, let's go

get some breakfast, okay?

- I'll meet you in there.

- Okay.

( sighs )

Girl:

What does our new house

look like?

Lisa:

It's way out

in the country

And there's just lots

of room for you to play.

Girl:

Can we bring my bike?

Girl:

Even though I don't know

how to ride it yet.

Lisa:

You are gonna have

lots of places

To learn

how to ride your bike.

- Hey. Howdy.

- Daddy!

( laughs )

Oh! Mmm!

- You done good, daddy.

- Why, thank you.

What about you, huh?

What do you think?

- Who lived there before?

- Nobody, honey.

That's why the bank gave us

such a good deal, right?

- Thank you, mama.

- Mwah!

Well, maybe you'd

rather live in there.

- No.

- That can be arranged.

- No, thank you.

- You'd have the whole place

to yourself.

- Nope.

- Teddy bear could

have his own room.

Come on, let's go.

I'll race ya. Come on.

Go, go, go.

Race mama.

( static crackling )

Oh, what

the hell, baby?

You can't find a clearer

station than that?

We're out

in the boondocks, babe.

We're lucky we get

running water. Thank you.

Well, we don't need water.

That's what beer is for.

- Mm-hmm.

- This is my beer,

by the way.

- Mm-mmm.

- ( rattling )

( scratching )

- ( squeaks )

- ( shrieks )

( lisa laughing )

Shoo! Git!

God! Shoo!

Shoo! Git!

You think

that's funny, do you?

( door creaks )

( rattling )

( car horn honking )

Aunt joyce!

- ( honking horn )

- ( radio blaring, stops )

- Aunt joyce!

- ( screams )

Kid, you grow

like a weed.

Hi.

Look at you,

miss homeowner.

( laughing )

That didn't take long.

No suitcase?

I am not

a freeloader, andy.

- Today or historically?

- Stop it, andy.

Joyce is just here

to wish us well.

Is that so?

It's a goddamn curse

being right all the time.

It truly is.

Joyce:

It didn't work out

with ray.

Was he the married one

or the drunk?

Bit of both,

it turns out.

- ( chuckles )

- lisa:
What about you?

- Are you...?

- 11 weeks sober.

- ( voices whispering ) heidi.

- Andy:
Sh*t, call guinness.

- Help us. Help us.

- Andy:
On second thought,

That's probably

a bad idea.

- Joyce:
I can get by.

- Voices:
Heidi.

Heidi...

Joyce:

I've got alimony coming in.

I want to be near family.

Well, find

a place near here.

Just not here.

Who lives over there?

That's just some old wreck

someone left behind.

- I'm gonna haul it away.

- A girl lives down there.

Hmm? Nobody lives

around here, baby.

- When'd you see a girl?

- Just now.

You know,

I've lived in worse.

"near here,

but not here," right?

You did

say that, babe.

- ( andy groans )

- ( lisa laughs )

( sighs )

( sobbing, whimpering )

( sobbing continues )

( rustling, sobbing )

( moaning )

( moaning resumes )

( screams )

Stop it.

- Heidi:
Mama?

- ( sobbing )

Why are you

crying?

It's nothing, sweetie.

It's nothing.

Aunt joyce is out front,

so go say good night.

And I'll come

tuck you in, okay?

Okay.

Heidi:

Mama's crying.

Do you know why

she gets sad?

Your mama...

Gets feelings

sometimes.

Feelings she doesn't

much care for.

What kind

of feelings?

Tell you what.

I want you to try

something for me.

Can you do that?

Look out there.

At what?

Don't really focus

on anything specific.

Just take it

all in.

( woman's voice humming )

( children laughing )

Feel anything?

Woman:

Help us.

- I think so.

- Help us.

And sometimes...

I see things.

( sighs )

That's 'cause you were born

with a veil, sweetie,

Just like your mama

and me and our mama.

What's a veil?

It means that

when you were born

You had a sheen over

your face like a wedding veil.

And sometimes folks

born that way have a gift.

They can--

They can sense certain things

that other people can't.

Mama never said

anything about it.

Your mama doesn't like

this kind of talk

Of gifts and feelings.

So let's just keep this

conversation between us, okay?

Now run

to bed, please.

( laughs )

Love you.

I love you, too.

( birds chirping )

( buzzing )

( water dripping )

( pipes rattling )

( voices whispering )

lisa...

I know, mama.

Listen to me, lisa.

I have something

to tell you.

Listen to me, lisa.

I have something

to tell you.

Just be

a good girl...

( voices moaning )

And listen

to your mother.

Listen to me!

( gasps )

- Andy:
Lisa.

- ( gasps )

It's 6:
00 a.M.

How long you been

in here this time, hmm?

You saw something again,

didn't you?

Here.

If these pills

ain't working,

We sure as hell shouldn't

keep paying for them.

They're working.

It just gets a little tricky

when they wear off, is all.

You should finish

getting dressed.

You'll be late

for work.

- All right, darling.

- Take care.

Careful, heidi.

- You need any help?

- I can do it.

Okay.

All right.

( grunts )

( groans )

( whimpering )

Voices:

Heidi.

( yelps )

( radio playing )

little girls,

they love to dream

close their eyes

and try to see...

( turns engine off )

Hey, neighbor.

Heidi's been gone an hour

and I don't know where she is.

Well, she's probably

just wandering.

- Heidi is not a wanderer.

- That's 'cause she's never

had anywhere to wander to.

Now she does.

You're just gonna have

to get used to it.

Heidi. Baby.

Where have you been?

I've been worried sick.

I'm not

supposed to say.

Who said that?

Damn it, heidi,

who told you that?

Mr. Gordy.

- Who's mr. Gordy?

- An old man I met.

He said there's

a swing set in the woods

just like in my dream.

Remember, mama?

Okay. Okay.

Come here.

Joyce, get andy

on the phone.

This is it.

Mr. Gordy told me

there's a swing here.

Well, babe,

I don't see a swing.

I'll be damned.

There may not be

a swing here now,

But there used to be.

( grunts )

- ( gasps )

- ( laughs )

- ( groans ) jesus.

- Walk much?

Babe, did this mr. Gordy

say anything else to you?

He said there's money

buried in the garden.

Okay, sweetie, I want you
