- I'm not going to hurt you, honey.

I'm not going to hurt you.

Honey, I wasn't anywhere near you.

[Male disembodied voice groaning]

We're going to see the monk.

Right now. Okay?

[Amy gasping]

Better I just sleep.

Let me sleep.

Just sit down.

I'll get you a pillow.

Okay, here you go.

Come on.

Come on. Gently.

LAURA:
Go. Go now.

Okay.

I'll be back in 10 minutes, okay?

Tell me everything.

Omit no details,

no matter how small.

[Phone rings]

Alex Curtis.

- LAURA:
Alex.

- Laura.

- It has to stop.

- What?

You and I.

For myself, I mean.

I can't explain.

What are you talking about?

Why the sudden change?

- I love my husband.

- I know you do.

I love him very much.

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

Laura. Laura.

Laura!

[Voices stop]

MONK:
Demons and ghosts are not

confined to your Christian world.

You moved into a house

occupied by evil spirits,

condemned by their karma,

to stay in the place of their crimes.

Your daughter

did see a face in the bowl.

When she drank,

she swallowed the soul of the kaki.

Why did you not go home?

I wanted to try to understand

what was happening.

The kaki will know

when you talk to me,

and their revenge will be terrible.

You must go.

All right.

[Sighs]

Laura? Laura?

Laura?

Laura?

Honey, you scared me.

Everything's going to be fine.

The monk's going to protect us.

Tomorrow, we're going home.

Please.

Please, keep the door open.

Father, this is my wife, Laura.

Everything will be fine.

You don't have to worry.

Thank you.

[Japanese prayer]

MONK:
Haaaaa!

MONK:
Let no one in the house.

No one.

I will return in the morning.

Thank you, Father.

We're safe.

We're safe.

LAURA [sobbing]:

No, we're not.

- TED:
Yes, we are. Yes, we are.

- No, no!

- No, please!

- Honey, honey, honey, honey.

No, no, please, please!

Please, don't touch me!

Don't touch me please!

Please, don't touch me!

No, no, please!

- No, you can't touch me, you can't!

- Okay, okay, I won't touch you.

It's not okay!

I've had an affair with Alex!

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

ALEX:
Laura! Ted!

Ted, it's me, Alex!

Ted! Ted!

Ted, where's Laura?

[Grunting]

[Disembodied Japanese

No!

No, stop it!

- No!

- Get out of my way!

Ahh!

No! Stop it! Stop it, please!

Stop it, stop it!

Both of you, stop it!

Stop!
