Stay there.

Get off of me.

Stop it.

It's Mike. Mike.

Please don't look.

It's Mike.

Oh, God.

He was my best friend.

He's my best friend.

He was my best friend.

What am I gonna do?

Where

are you going?

I'm gonna go outside. I

want you to hide somewhere.

What are you

talking about?

There's an old radio at the barn,

I'm gonna try and call for help.

I don't know

what else to do.

It's okay, I'm gonna

come right back for you.

Listen, I want you to go,

and I want you to hide there.

I'll keep them away.

I'll come find you.

James, no. I want

to come with you.

Kristen, please, it'll

be okay, I promise.

I'll be fine.

Be careful. James.

Oh, sh*t!

James?

Ah!

Oh, f***!

James?

Hello?

Hello?

Can anybody hear me?

This is K-50.

Hello?

Can you hear me? Hello?

Please,

answer me.

Help me.

Where are you?

No!

He's gonna

kill you.

Why are you doing this to us?

James!

You're gonna die.

Kristen, run!

Let me out!

Kristen! Run!

Jamie!

Why are you

doing this to us?

Because you

were home.

I love you.

Baby!

No! Please! No!

No! Please!

You don't have to do this. Please!

You can stop now.

You... Please! No!

Please, listen to me. Please.

You can stop now. You

don't have to do this.

No!

Baby,

look at me.

Look at my face.

Don't look,

please.

Please! Please!

Please, don't!

No!

No!

Can I have one?

Are you a sinner?

Sometimes.

It'll be

easier next time.
