( "Potion Jar" by A.
Wolf & Her Claws)
Dum da dum dum
Da da dum dum dum
Dum da dum dum
I was a child
In the Illinois woods
Down a gravel road
No TV
No phone, no
Just my brother and me
Magic all around
Well it used to come so easy
Dancing in the shaded yard
When I knew the recipe
For the potion jar
Da da dum dum dum
Dum da dum dum
Da da dum dum dum
Dum da dum dum
City street
And now I am grown
Got a tune in
Reaching down through
the floorboard
The TV
And the phone
Make it harder to hear
Magic all around
Now it doesn't come so easy
But it might if I try hard
To remember the recipe
For the potion jar
Da da dum dum dum
Dum da dum dum
Da da dum dum dum
Dum da dum dum
Da da dum dum dum
Dum da dum dum
Da da dum dum dum
Dum da dum dum
Da da dum dum dum
Dum da dum dum
[Driver] Hey, sweetie.
Thanks for the ride.
(door banging)
When I said you gotta
start getting out,
I didn't mean babysitting.
Some of us need money.
[Driver] Money's just
something you buy sh*t with.
(smirks) Says the girl
in daddy's $40,000 SUV.
F*** off, b*tch.
(girls laughing)
(phone whooshes)
( "Elder of Zion"
by The Softrocks)
With dirty fingers
in your mouth
Who's that?
Baby brother.
He's 15 years old and
he's sitting at home
chatting with a bunch
spooky spirits and
the great beyond.
(chuckles) Nice Saturday night.
You should talk.
(crickets chirping)
[Babysitter] Didn't we
turn at that sign last time?
I don't know.
Well, who the f***
interviews twice
for a babysitting job, anyway?
In the middle of
nowhere, I might add.
(chuckles) I got
the job, didn't I?
[Driver] Whatever.
(phone beeps)
Now that it's official, they
can pay for my f***ing gas.
It's up there.
(phone whooshes)
(crickets chirping)
(engine rumbling)
Text you to pick me up later?
Maybe.
(laughs) Thanks Cali.
(knocking)
(crickets chirping)
(suspenseful music)
(dramatic music)
(Ranae gasping)
[Man At Door] Ranae.
You scared me.
Sorry about the
wait, come on in.
Tanya just put the baby down.
[Ranae] He's already in bed?
Three months old and all he
does is eat and poop and sleep
and he's already
eaten and pooped so,
you should have a
pretty easy night.
[Ranae] That's amazing.
Oh, hi, Ranae.
Probably a little
harder in the dark.
My friend Cali dropped me off.
Oh, that's nice.
If you would need
a ride home later,
Roman can take you.
Cali will pick me up.
Perfect!
But if you need a
ride, of course, I can.
What are you
guys doing tonight?
Just dinner and a late movie.
It's our anniversary this week.
Happy anniversary.
An excuse to go out, anyway.
You guys don't get out much?
[Roman] You are, actually,
Miller's first babysitter.
[Tanya] Okay, well,
Miller's not gonna wake up,
but if he does...
[Roman] He won't.
[Tanya] But if he does...
[Roman] But if he does.
Diaper and wipes are on the
changing table in the nursery.
His bottle's in the fridge.
He likes the white
noise machine,
so you can just leave that on
and there's a monitor
here on the tablet.
[Roman] We should
get going, honey.
Ah, what else?
Oh, there's chicken in the
fridge if you're hungry.
You can just nuke it.
Soda and stuff by
the bar downstairs.
Snacks everywhere and...
And a couch, bathroom,
doors, the works.
Okay, I get it.
I get it.
I'm just gonna go check
on him one more time.
We'll be late.
Okay, it'll be fine.
(sighs) The movie won't
be done 'til after midnight,
but we'll be home by
one at the latest.
Call or text if you have
questions or need anything.
You know, I'm just...
I'll be real quick,
I'm just gonna check
on him one more time.
(Roman sighing)
( "The Rose" by The Softrocks)
Well, I was just at bay
When I left the other day
For my mother
(baby crying)
So I sang myself a song
To keep me busy
Oh
All you spirits
have no choice
But you dwell
inside my voice
Oh
Well, I saw
Michael in the sky
With his sword held out high
Let it out in the sky
With his sword held out high
(baby crying)
So I
(music distorts)
A song to keep me busy
(music distorts)
Oh
All you spirits
have no choice
Echoing the
Dwell inside my voice
(music distorts)
(baby crying)
(music crackling)
(baby whimpering)
(distorted rock music)
(baby screaming)
(baby crying)
(dramatic music)
(phone thuds)
(sighing heavily)
Call me.
(Ranae scoffs)
(ominous music)
(phone ringing)
[Ranae] Hey.
[Cali] I'm bored,
entertain me.
(scoffs) Your Snap
scared the crap out of me.
I was having the weirdest dream.
[Cali] Sleeping
on the job already?
That's impressive.
What are you doing?
[Cali] Saturday night
in Disfunction Junction.
Grace and J?
(guy laughing)
[Cali] Sh*t!
I told you to f***ing
knock it off, baby dick.
Hey, I'll hit you back in five.
(phone beeps)
(water splashing)
(clock chiming)
(ominous music)
(stairs creaking)
(electricity zapping)
(suspenseful music)
(door creaking)
(indistinct haunting whispers)
(door shuts)
(white noise machine crackling)
(text message dings)
(suspenseful music)
(phone beeping)
J is such an a**hole.
What the hell was that?
[Cali] I said sorry.
That picture, what was
[Cali] What picture?
That picture you just sent me.
[Cali] What picture?
That sick picture.
[Cali] I have zero idea
what you're talking about.
(scoffs) I can't
believe you'd do this.
[Cali] Sweetie, I
didn't send you anything.
This isn't funny.
[Cali] You sound really
freaked, should I come over?
No.
[Cali] (scoffs)
I think I should.
No!
[Cali] I'm going to.
[Ranae] Don't.
(phone beeps)
(baby crying)
(heavy sighing)
(crickets chirping)
(phone ringing)
(suspenseful music)
(dramatic music)
(soft music)
(ominous music)
(loud knocking)
Jesus.
(suspenseful music)
[Group Of Friends] Surprise!
(fingers tapping)
There's no beer in here!
What he say?
I have no idea.
[Jeremy] I said there's
no beer in the fridge.
Stop yelling, Jeremy.
The baby's sleeping.
[Jeremy] Relax.
The baby's room's
like six miles away.
This place is f***ing huge.
[Ranae] Well, if
you wake him up,
you can get him back to sleep.
Oh, sorry, I don't
take care of kids.
I just make 'em.
Get off.
Yeah, you're a real man, J.
Now, tell us about the
time the cop made you cry.
(laughing)
Hey, I wasn't f***ing crying.
That dick used pepper spray.
(laughing)
Besides, if a baby
wakes up crying
you just let it cry
itself back to sleep.
Everybody knows that.
