Yeah?

I'm looking

for Ana Paole.

No, she doesn't live

here anymore.

Do you know

where I can find her?

Yeah.

Ana? I'm home.

Jesus, what's this mess?

Ana, why didn't you clean up?

Aha?

Did you hear me?

Aha?

JESUS.

I can't believe you're still

mad, this is stupid.

Aha?

Are you okay?

Aha?

Aha?

I'm here,

just leave me alone.

Open the door.

Ana, open the door.

Leave me alone, please!

Ana, open the f***ing door!

Aha!

What... what did you do?

I'm sorry.

I had to.

Who is she?

What do we have here?

Hey, that's my spot.

Move your ass.

What's your problem?

You don't wanna

make new friends?

He's higher than you.

P*ssy.

I told you to move,

motherf***er.

Bro,

I think he's deaf.

Move.

Or I'm taking your eye.

What's stopping you?

Did you like that,

motherf***er?

Stop!

Who the f*** are you?

You're gonna kill him.

Just keep moving.

Wait!

Officer!

Officer! Stop! Here.

What's the matter, kid?

Everything alright?

Oh, f***. I'm outta here.

- You handle this.

- Stop! Nobody move!

What the f*** is going on here?

He attacked me.

It was self-defense.

He attacked you?

I'm telling the truth.

You goddamn liar!

- Who is he?

- I don't know, some drifter.

Jesus, he's not breathing.

F*** him.

What the hell are you

waiting for, dumbass?

Grab him before

somebody sees us.

Move!

Get the shovel.

Lieutenant, we got a 16-14

in progress on

Taylor and Seasons.

We need your assistance.

Send Robinson.

He should be in that area.

Negative, lieutenant.

Robinson is off duty, sir.

okay, I'm on my way-

Sh*t.

Cover him up.

I'll finish it later.

I can take care of it.

You can't even

wipe your own ass.

Go home, now.

Copy that.

Here, take my jacket.

Ma.

wake up, ma!

- Shh.

- Ma!

Leave me alone,

I just got home.

- I need you to come.

- Later.

Mom, it's an emergency!

- Who is this man?

- I don't know.

He came to the house

asking about Ana.

Aha?

Yeah, then he was

stabbed at the park.

And you brought him here?

You have to take him

to the hospital.

- I can't treat him here.

- I can't.

There was a cop there.

And he was the one

trying to hide his body.

If I take him to the hospital,

he's gonna find him.

I don't wanna have

anything to do with the police.

Please, Mom,

just do what you can

and I'll get him

out of here soon.

- I promise.

- Oh, God.

okay, just get me

the first-aid kit.

Alright.

No, don't... don't touch me.

I'm sick.

Don't touch my blood.

Here, Mom.

Let me die.

Or I'll kill you both.

Mom.

Why the hell would

you bring him here?

I'm sorry.

You should have left him

where you found him.

What where you thinking?

You idiot!

You're right.

I'll take him to the hospital.

Don't!

Not yet.

Wait until it's dark.

Otherwise someone's

gonna see you.

Son of a b*tch.

Where the f*** am I?

It's okay, you're safe.

I don't need

your f***ing help.

I... brought you something.

Here.

Drink.

Come on.

Drink.

[Elm

Leave me alone...

You deaf motherf***er.

Caleb.

That tagger who

saw you last night,

do you know him?

Why?

Do you know him or not?

F***.

What did he do?

He followed us,

and he took your friend.

- Motherf***er! I'm gonna...

- You're not doing sh*t!

You'll only f*** it up worse!

Do you hear me?

What's this?

Breakfast.

You keep this sh*t

out of my house.

What's the big deal?

It's not like Mom can say

anything anymore.

Wait here until I come back.

Goddamn idiot.

Hi, Peter.

Hi, Mom.

You're very lucky.

Nobody heard anything

at the hospital.

I think we're okay.

Eva?

Where are you?

Eva?

What?

What am I gonna do with you?

Next time you're out.

I won't allow you

to f*** it all up again!

I just can't.

I thought you were

done with this sh*t!

- It was just this once-

- Save it!

You heard me.

Next time you're out!

- Morning, Harris!

- Uh, hey, lieutenant!

How's everything

in our humble little town?

Peaceful.

Been a little fender bender

over on Fourth and Burwash

but nobody got hurt, thank God.

Nothin' else?

No.

Nothing last night?

No.

At least not according

to Russell's report.

Why, did you heard something?

No, just checkin'.

Thank you.

Oh, the chief called

from Black River.

He said he's gonna stay out

there a couple more days.

Thank God his wife's surgery

went so well, huh?

Oh, good, excellent.

Give him my best

if he calls again.

Yeah.

Peter!

It's dark,

take him out now.

Make sure nobody sees you.

okay-

Um, hello?

Sir?

Eva.

Peter!

What happened?

There's someone outside!

Come on out,

you little f*ggot!

- What do you want?

- We want you.

F***ing rat!

Get your ass out here, or else

we're coming' in for you!

I'm calling the police!

Go away!

Go ahead, b*tch, do it.

And I'll burn your house down.

You'll only make it worse.

I'll take care of it.

If you're not out

here in 10...

I'm smoking you out!

burn it all down!

No, Peter!

I'm pregnant!

What?

No, no.

It's... it's impossible. No.

I'm sorry,

animals aren't enough.

But we're sick.

Maybe he isn't.

I'm sorry.

It's too dangerous.

Please, stop it! No!

Martin, Stop!

What did you do with the body?

Where did you hide him?

He wasn't dead.

Bullshit!

I swear

I'm telling the truth, sir.

That's why I helped him out.

So where is he now?

I don't know, sir.

I swear.

He left last night.

By himself?

Lieutenant.

I'm busy here.

I know.

I'm sorry, sir.

We found your son's friend.

He was still alive

when they brought him here.

And they severed his

jugular and he bled out.
