Where are we going?
Sweetie, I know it's hard,
but...
we're here to say goodbye
to your mom.
No! No!
You can't burn her.
She's coming back.
Mommy's coming back
in seven days.
She's not coming back, Katie.
No! No, Mommy. No!
No! Mommy! No!
She's with God now.
No God would allow people
like Anna and my mother
to suffer the way they did.
You want to come in, sweetie?
Okay.
You can come in
when you feel better.
Mommy?
Is that you?
God forgive me.
God forgive me.
It started a month ago
with Saint Benedict.
This morning the Web sites
of three other churches
were attacked
in the exact same way.
Might it not just be a prank?
Corporations and governments
get hacked. Why not the Church?
We're not dealing
with a hacker here, Father.
The defacement may look it,
but...
the code used in the attacks is
like nothing I've seen before.
Employing such a sophisticated
code to hack a church Web site...
It's like... It's like using
a laser to... to kill a fly.
I... I'd really like to help you,
but I just don't see how I can.
The Tower of Babel...
I need to know more about it.
The Bible mentions many towers.
But it was Man's
use of one tongue
that led to
his spiritual suicide.
But God destroyed the Tower and
confounded all the languages.
The one tongue is no more.
This is binary.
It's the language of computers
and the Internet.
The ones and zeros correspond
to the two basic states of
electrical signals...
On and off.
Now, whether you speak English,
Spanish, Japanese, French...
Binary captures every language
out there,
making it the language
of languages.
It's the new one tongue.
Where are you?
Is my mommy coming back?
Who's he?
Just make sure she feeds
in a while
and then
She can do it on her own,
but just, you know, remind her.
Got it.
I'm sorry.
You're not a babysitter.
I just...
I don't know anyone here.
It's fine, and I love kids,
plus it gets me
out of the bureau.
- So...
- Thank you.
Um, I shouldn't be long.
Don't worry.
We'll be fine.
Is this about Anna?
Jamie, wait.
Let me help you.
You didn't care
when you dumped my sister,
so why the concern now?
For all I know, you're the
reason why she killed herself.
Miss Waters.
I'm Ravi Sharma.
You said your sister killed
herself. So did my wife.
I have something
you need to see.
Darling.
I'll be back in seven days.
Wait for me.
I love you.
She had removed her own womb.
It was all captured
on the baby cam.
A few days ago I was putting the
baby stuff away when I saw this.
What is it?
You've seen it before.
In the room
where my sister died.
May I take a look around?
Charlotte was an accountant.
Retired.
But she still did some freelance
auditing once in a while.
Was your wife sick?
No, that's for the IVF.
We've been trying to have a baby
for years.
But the doctors said Charlotte
was too old to get pregnant.
Well, she paid the day she died.
Hey, Tara.
It's Majorie.
Hey, listen, I'm wondering,
are you still with Chester Tan?
Yeah.
Katie.
It's time you fed.
Danny?
- Can't she stay?
- No.
Mommy?
Mommy?
Don't hurt us.
Mommy, is that you?
Mommy?
He killed us all!
He will kill every one of you.
- Who is he?
- He has many names.
Jamie, wait.
Let me help.
Charlotte removed her womb
because she was infertile.
Anna suffocated herself,
starving her brain of oxygen,
because that's where
Huntington's starts.
Charlotte told Ravi
she's coming back in seven days.
Katie said the same about Anna.
Then there's the symbol.
The two cases are linked.
Let me help.
I want to find the truth
as much as you do.
Katie?
There you are.
Are you drawing something?
Is that a word game?
Can I play?
Hmm.
They look like names.
Danny says he has many names.
Who's Danny?
Well, they look similar.
I know. It's an anagram.
- What's that?
- An anagram's a word
formed by rearranging
I'll show you.
Okay.
Katie.
That's your name.
Now let's see.
And this is an anagram
of your name.
Eli...
The plot was confiscated by
the British government in 1938
and later resold at an auction
in 1953 to the Harris family.
Anna?
Miss, are you all right?
Katie?
- How is she?
- In bed.
What is it?
That thing you have in there,
it can give people a real scare.
I nearly died of fright
when I saw it.
What thing?
That.
It was...
It was right here a moment ago.
Um, what was it?
I was right here with Katie.
I turned around, and it was
right here on this chair.
- Are you okay, Majorie?
- Uh...
That's my cab.
I... I have to go.
Are you sure you're okay?
Yeah.
Uh, I spoke to my friend
who works for the lawyer
that your sister used, and...
it wasn't Sam
who wanted the divorce.
It was Anna.
I just thought you should know.
Hey.
She's coming back.
Just two more days.
Katie.
There.
He demands the Tower, but
rejects the tongues I offer.
I have sacrificed my blood,
but he will not do my bidding.
What tower does he speak of?
- Miss Waters?
- Yeah?
Something just happened.
Charlotte's computer
deleted three names
from her address book.
I didn't see the first two.
It happened so fast.
But the last one is someone
by the name of Josh Lim.
- Do you know him?
- No.
There's something else.
It's exactly seven days
since Charlotte died.
Are you okay?
When you called, I thought
something had happened to Katie.
No.
She's fine.
Why didn't you tell Katie
that Anna was the one who wanted
the divorce, not you?
I didn't want her to blame Anna.
- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.
After Katie got sick,
Anna felt guilty for
not telling me the truth.
I told her it didn't matter,
but it ate away at her.
She said she didn't want me
going through life
dragging around a sick wife
and daughter.
She said she wanted me
to be free.
You have to tell Katie
the truth.
She can't go through life
hating you.
Katie.
Hello?
Josh?
Josh?
Josh? No! Josh!
No!
We've got to get you
to the hospital.
- Seven days. She... She said...
- Who?
- Who said seven days?
- She... She...
So you will kill
in the name of your God
just to save?
- I adjure you!
- No, Father!
You've killed him.
Danny?
Danny?
No! Ah! No!
Spare him, Nigel, please.
I beg you.
He wants you too.
Sam. I found something.
First, thank you, Anna,
for an amazing meal.
May I propose some
post-dinner entertainment?
All right. Let the sance
begin. Everybody.
Miss May Wong?
Spirits, ghosts, ghouls,
we wish to converse.
Are you present?
Okay, can we have dessert now?
I have the most amazing
chocolate cake ready for you.
What the hell was that?
Did you do that, Wayne?
Okay. That was me.
You idiot!
Um, there's something.
Tell us your name.
May?
May, are you okay? Oh!
Oh, sweetie, are you okay? May.
Oh. It's okay.
It must be the wine. I'm taking
medication for my heart.
- I'd better go. Sorry.
- It's okay. It's okay, dear
