The Uninvited Page #3

I don't know if you remember me.

Listen, we're gonna do

a thorough investigation,

but he must have hit a patch of timber,

fell out of the boat and broke his back.

Were you supposed to meet him?

Listen, we all know

what you're going through.

Anything you need, anything at all,

you come see me.

You understand?

I'm deeply sorry.

It's just terrible.

I'm gonna make breakfast.

You should eat something.

- Coffee?

- Yeah.

- Dad, wait.

- What?

Matt wasn't just in the water last night.

He was coming to see me.

Anna, what happened to Matt

is not your fault.

Dad, that's not what she's trying to say.

One of you come help me.

- Dad.

- I'll go.

- What?

- I saw Matt in town yesterday.

He told me he saw what happened

the night of the fire.

Rachel overheard us.

She didn't want me

to talk to him anymore.

She didn't want him

to come here ever again.

Anna, why would Rachel

say something like that?

It's just...

What?

Is everything all right out there?

- We'll be right in.

- Okay.

Sweetheart, I know

this is difficult for you.

It's been hard for all of us,

but, please, don't do this.

Okay? Just don't do this.

- Come on, have some breakfast.

- I'll be there in a minute.

You okay?

No, I'm not okay.

I'm not crazy, Alex.

Matt was here, and I thought

that I was dreaming, but I wasn't.

- Anna, do you wanna sit...

- And he said

that Mom was trying to warn him.

- Okay, how can that be?

- And he was holding me.

- Anna, listen.

- Look!

Oh, my God.

- Okay, now I'm afraid.

- I'm not crazy.

They're not gonna send me back there.

No, I'm not afraid for you.

I'm afraid for us.

Anna, we're the last ones

standing between Rachel

and what she really wants.

Come on. Look,

last time I checked, you didn't become

some psycho serial killer overnight,

so we need to find out exactly

who Miss Rachel Summers really is.

Yes, hi, I'm trying to

get some information

about someone we hired

through your agency.

Her name's Summers.

Rachel Summers.

Hello, I'd like to get a reference

on one of your nurses, please.

I believe she was on your staff

at the hospital

between July and December of 2005.

Hi, I'm running a background check

on someone who worked for you

several years ago.

Summers. S-U-M-M...

Yeah, as in "mother. "

E- R- S, as in "Satan. "

What? No, that's impossible.

No, no, no, that's fine.

Okay, thanks very much. Bye.

We've got her.

Anna. Come in.

You know,

you have beautifully shaped lips.

You just don't know

what to do with them.

Men will go on about a woman's eyes,

but that's bullshit.

What they really want is

a girl with a pretty mouth.

There.

You seem very interested in these.

Would you like to wear them tonight?

- No, I don't think so.

- Oh, come on. It'll be fun.

There.

What's your real name, Rachel?

What did you say?

The State Nursing Association

has no record of a Rachel Summers.

Your social security number's

for someone named Rachel Summers,

but she's a school teacher

from New Orleans.

She died five years ago.

So, who are you, really?

You know what, Anna?

I don't think this is going to work out.

Where do you think you're going?

To talk to my father.

Well, there's really no need.

We've already discussed it

with Dr. Silberling.

- Discussed what?

- Well, your behavior.

Anna, he's very concerned.

He's beginning to think that

it was a mistake letting you out.

You won't take this away from me.

I won't allow it.

Now, get out. I have guests coming.

I can't believe she sold you out to Dad.

Maybe she can threaten you,

but what can they do to me?

- I'm gonna talk to Dad.

- No.

All she's gonna do is convince him

that we're lying

and that it's my fault, okay?

We just have to get through tonight,

and then tomorrow we go to the police

and tell them what's going on.

You're only gonna make it worse for me.

Fine. But this is gonna

take a lot of alcohol.

Hey. Look at you.

- What?

- You look terrific.

Thanks.

Well, I guess

you've grown up on me, haven't you?

Hey, if it's any consolation,

this is all pretty weird for me, too.

Book launch parties.

Might as well give everyone

a green light

to come into your house and judge you.

Can I ask you a favor?

Would you give Rachel a hand tonight?

The truth is, I don't think

she feels good enough for all of this,

and people here are judging her, too.

Sure.

What?

I just wanted to know

if you needed any help.

Really?

Sure. Open the oven.

Okay.

The key to a good roast is to

let it sit 10 minutes before carving.

It lets the blood flow back in.

Back to the fray.

Take out the garbage, will you?

You're next.

No. No. What did you do?

What did you do?

What are you trying to do to me?

What happened?

You leave her alone.

Just go to bed.

No, no. Listen, I'll be in New York

tomorrow and we can sort this all out.

Sorry about this. Travel safe.

Dad? Can I talk to you?

Tonight. There's a reason for

what happened.

It's Rachel.

She's not who you think she is.

Enough, Anna.

- What has she done this time?

- She's lied to you.

- About what?

- About everything. About her name.

Do you even know where she's from?

I'm not gonna dignify that

with an answer.

No, of course you're not, because

you only see what you wanna see.

All she is trying to do

is make this family work.

She's not trying to make it work.

- She wants you for herself.

- That is ridiculous.

God, if Mom could see you now,

siding with that b*tch

who's trying to tear us apart!

Rachel isn't the one

who's tearing us apart.

Look, maybe we should talk

to Dr. Silberling about this.

Right, because I'm the one who's crazy.

- I didn't say that. You know I did...

- Dad.

You're not wearing your ring.

Are you gonna marry her?

- Tell me!

- Yes, Anna.

We're getting married

sometime this fall.

We talked about going away,

but I wanna have the wedding here,

for all of us.

I'm not ashamed, Anna.

I'm not ashamed to be happy again.

Bye, Daddy.

We shouldn't be late for Matt's service.

Wear something decent.

I wanna look like a family.
