- I have to go.

- What took them?

What're you talking about?

Make a salt circle

around the tree

and if I'm not back in

ten minutes, burn it.

Ben.

Ten minutes,

and you do it, okay?

Nathan.

Hey, buddy.

Hey.

Okay,

I need you to wake up, buddy.

- Ben?

- Hey.

We're gonna

get you out of here, okay?

I want you to get up. Okay.

Ready to go?

Ready to go home?

I need you to keep goin', and

I'll be right behind you, okay?

Go, go, go, go, go.

Sh*t.

Oh!

- Ben!

- Ah!

Go, go!

Are you alright?

Let's go, come on.

Mal!

- Pull yourself up.

- Come here.

Come on. Okay.

Come here.

- You okay? Okay.

- Yeah.

Alright, stand back, over here.

Ben!

Ben!

Lily!

Lily, oh, my God.

I'm gonna

get you out of here, okay?

Come on, you gotta,

you gotta wake up, okay?

Lily, open your eyes.

You gotta wake up, okay?

- I don't feel good.

- Okay.

Hey, hey, you're gonna be fine.

You're gonna be fine, alright?

We're gonna get you out of here.

Okay. Okay, here we go.

Come on, let's go! Come on!

Ben!

Mal!

Lily!

Okay. Go that way.

Go back to the house,

and wait for me.

- Now!

- Okay.

- Are you okay?

- Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Go!

Ah!

Mom, we're headed out.

I'm doing pretty good,

considering..

Uh, Lily's getting better every

day, some nightmares.

It's expected. People died.

It's a lot to process,

especially for someone her age.

Uh, before you go,

I... I wanted to, um..

I wanted to ask you

about something

that your sister

said her last session.

She said..

...you had to burn the tree.

What tree?

Do you have any idea

what she's talking about?

Mallory?

Um..

Sounds like

one of her nightmares.

Alright, hold on, team.

Wait for the rest of us.

Let's go.

Hey, Starcrush.

Headed out?

Yeah, headin' home.

- Hey! Hm-hmm.

- So..

Your mom and dad?

Nah, no, she's just, uh..

She's just driving back with us.

- Cool.

- Yeah.

Well, good luck with..

...everything.

Thanks. You too, you know,

with the rest of your summer.

Cool.

Alright, well..

Adios, muchacho?

Yeah, okay.

That is from Lily.

That's from me.

Take care of yourself, Ben.

Don't forget me.

Alright, who's ready to go?

- Hey.

- Hey, stud muffin.

- You ready?

- Yeah.

- Let's go.

- Thank you.

Hey, so when we get back,

I kinda thought..

Listen, I think I'm gonna stay

with your Uncle Rory

for a couple of weeks,

until this heals up

and, you know, until your mom

and I can figure things out.

Hey, however it works out, dad.

It's fine.

Alright.

Oh!

- You good?

- Ow.

So this is Ben's car now?

- She's pretty.

- Ow.

Something to know

about your dad

is that he's a huge baby

when it comes to pain.

No, I'm not.

I got a lot of boo-boos here.

It's a magic fairy.

It is.. It is a spider.

This is a cockroach.
