We can go check into town.

No, let's have a look.

She might have gone around...

- What are you doing?

- You know, to the other side.

What are you doing?

Are you out of

your f***ing mind?

Christine!

Christine!

All right. Hey.

Hey, hey, hey.

Come on, come on, it's fine.

I'll come back in the morning, okay?

It's dark out here.

He's right.

We can't see anything.

Let's get into some warm clothes

and drive into town.

F***.

Come on, I'll come back

as soon as it's light out.

Hey.

Sorry, I was trying to be quiet.

It's okay.

I thought you were her.

I can't sleep.

I was gonna go back to the lake,

take another look.

I saw her out there

the other night.

What, at the lake?

No, no.

In here and then out front.

I was following her.

Kaia, what are you talking about?

Well, she was walking in here,

then over there.

I didn't wake her up.

I used to think that

she was faking it

or trying to tell me something.

All right, but you know

she's not, right?

She's not conscious when

she does that; she's asleep.

Yes.

But I don't understand it.

Okay, don't worry.

Come here.

I think that we should

go to the police today.

But she always comes back.

You okay?

I don't feel so good.

Okay.

I need to sit down.

Okay, come on, let's sit down.

You're just tired.

So am I.

Hey.

Hey, man.

We went out looking at the lake.

Me too.

I woke up,

seemed like everyone

had disappeared

all of a sudden.

Yeah, I..I'm sorry

that we were gone so long.

She wasn't feeling well.

Yeah.

Yeah, you look like sh*t.

You should get some sleep.

Maybe Ira and I

will head back to town,

ask around at the train station.

But she wasn't there.

Well, I don't know.

That was last night.

Maybe she turned up.

What do you think, Ira?

Yeah, sure,

let's head into town.

I'll come too.

No, it's fine.

You stay here.

The truck takes

a little while to warm up.

You mind starting it

while I tuck her in?

No, but why don't we

just take mine?

Great, even better.

Come on.

You'll feel better after a nap.

Yeah, Andrew.

You know how much

I love you, right?

Yeah.

I love you too.

Yeah.

You know, there's one thing

that I cannot accept, is,

I do not like being disrespected.

- I know.

- Okay.

You have your things from inside?

What?

Your stuff, you got everything?

Yeah.

All right, here's

what's gonna happen:

You're gonna go home.

You can wait for Chris there.

We'll go to the police,

and we'll look for her out here.

Okay, is that what Kaia wants?

I'd prefer to stay here.

I'm sure you would,

but it's time for you to go.

All right, well, I'd like

to talk to her first.

Listen.

You have seriously

overstepped your bounds

in this house, bro.

You walk around

like you live here.

You flirt with Kaia

right in front of my face.

Maybe that's why your

slut girlfriend left you.

What the f***

is wrong with you?

Are you f***ing stupid?

Are you f***ing stupid?

Hey, get your hands off me.

- Are you f***ing stupid?

- Get your f***ing hand off me.

You talk to me like that again,

I'm gonna f***ing

break your neck.

- Get your hand off me.

- All right?

Motherf***er!

Are you f***ing serious?

I will f***ing kill you!

I will f***ing kill you!

I will...

You motherf***er. Huh?

You motherf***er,

put your hand down.

Put your f***ing hand down!

I'm gonna hit you

in your f***ing face!

Huh?

I will f***ing murder you!

I will f***ing murder you!

What are you doing?

Ira, God.

You stupid motherf***er!

Look at his face, Andrew!

Look at his face!

- Stop hitting me, Kai.

- Hit me!

This is my fault, so hit me!

- Stop hitting me, Kai.

- Hit me!

You need to stop

hitting me, Kai.

Hit me!

You need to stop.

All right?

Look, I'll leave.

- I'll leave.

- No.

I'll wait outside.

Are you sure you don't

need me to call a doctor?

I'm fine.

I just want a shower.

Okay.

I'll get you something to wear

from my father's closet.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

I think I need to sleep a little.

You should go to the police.

No, I'll stay with you.

If you have a concussion,

it's not something

to fool around with.

I don't think I can sleep.

You should get some rest.

I'll keep an eye on you.

Can I ask you something?

What exactly did Chris

say about our father?

Not much.

She just said that

she couldn't stand him.

That's all.

That scares me.

Mm.

She said that he hit her once.

Yeah.

I was there.

It was after she burned me.

Oh, God.

What are we gonna do?

Okay.

Sorry.

Tell me a little bit more

about your sister's sleep issues.

Hello.

Hello?

Hello.

Hey, it's me.

Ira, hi.

How are you?

I...

I'm okay.

Yeah?

I'm staying with my mother.

Just dropped by her apartment

for the first time today.

It's weird being alone here.

Yeah, I know.

But I'll see you soon, right?

Are you coming up?

Yeah.

Listen.

The reason I'm calling is,

I was going through

all of our mail,

and I found a letter from Chris.

I've already called the police

to let them know.

What?

What?

Are you there?

When did she send it?

Well, that's the thing.

The postmark is from

before she disappeared.

What does it say?

I'm supposed to read it to you.

So I think I'm just gonna

pop in the car right now, all right?

No, what does it say?

It says...

It says, uh...

"Dear Ira,

"Please read this to Kaia.

"I'm currently writing you this

from my old bedroom,

"and it makes me

so happy to hear

"you and Kaia talking outside.

I want you two to be friends. "

It says that?

Yeah.

Should I keep going?

Yes.

"I want you two to be friends."

"It's really important to me

"that you two

continue to get along

"and take care of each other.

"I can hear you

saying something,

and I don't know what you said,

but it's making her laugh. "

There's a smiley face.

"I can see Andrew

pulling everything

"out of the garage

from my window.

"How could you let him do that?

"I came back here

to try and piece together

"what happened to us there.

"I am almost certain now

"that I am not the one

who burned you.

"It's clear that you do not

want to remember

"what he did to us.

"And I have to respect that.

"So if I leave

and I don't come back,

please don't be mad,

and don't go looking for me. "

"You and Ira

have each other now,

and I have my little one

to keep me company. "

"I hope I don't change my mind,

but I think I know

where to go for now. "

It stops there.

Hey, are you there?

Are you okay?

Kaia?

Listen.

You have to tell me what happened.

Kaia.

You have to tell me

what happened to you guys.

Kaia?

Kaia.
