They Look Like People

THEY LOOK LIKE PEOPLE

Pix

Can we not do your office?

Can we meet

somewhere in the park...

In the park?

You too, sir.

You are a mountain.

You are a hundred miles high.

You are invincible.

You are forever.

-Those that try to hurt you...

-what?

-How are you man?

-Sorry, are you busy?

-Look at you.

-Your...

Your number changed.

Yeah. It's amazing

to see you.

Yeah, um, I'm just staying

up, with someone nearby,

and I thought I'd say hi.

-What are you doing now?

-Well, I got in this morning,

but now, nothing.

I just,

thought I'd say hi,

and...

Come up.

Give me your bag.

-I got it.

-No, it's cool,

I've been working out.

Come on.

-Jeez.

-Kitchen,

living room area, weird room I

don't really know what to do with,

it used to be Kat's

clothing warehouse.

You guys... i thought you

were getting married.

Yeah. Hey!

I heard you and Hannah

got engaged. That's amazing.

You gotta tell me all about

how you asked her.

So, this is the basement.

It's for killing people,

or raping animals.

Why am I showing

this to you?

You comin'?

Very cool.

Kat and I were always

gonna have a party up here,

but, then we didn't.

Okay, come on.

So, tell me about

your engagement.

So, where is she?

When's the wedding?

No wedding.

What happened?

She...

Cheated on me,

and then broke up with me,

if you can believe it.

-You guys were together...

-stupid, it's better though.

Do you need

help cleaning?

No, man, I'm sorry,

I'm just...

I've been trying to get up the

courage to ask this girl on a date,

for, like, the past five

months, and I finally did,

so I have

this date tonight.

I should

be going anyway.

No. No, no, no, no, no. Seriously, |

it's between, me and her,

and her friend's coming along too,

so it's perfect. You should come.

I don't have anything to wear.

Yeah, but you're

staying close by, right?

When do they get home?

It's fine...

You know,

we'll hang out later.

I got... I...

Stop.

Just stop. Just tell

whoever you're staying with

you're crashing

here tonight, okay?

I've a killer camping mat for

all the b*tches I bring over.

Put your stuff down.

Hey. Remember that

date we have tonight?

Why don't you just get a little

friend to come along with you

at the last second?

Do not be a b*tch.

The only thing that will get in

your way and make you hate yourself

is if you are a b*tch.

You're a mountain.

Hey, man. The girls

are super excited.

Um, can I ask

you something?

Does it really

go down that far?

Are these your jeans?

She's been

at behemoth five months,

she's moved up twice.

She makes dudes cry,

I gotta man up.

She sounds horrible.

You're not gonna answer it?

No, if it's important,

she'll text.

Are you calling

an ambulance?

Okay. Should...

Should we...

Yeah, yeah,

no, we'll just come.

Class and leopard.

Great.

Um... okay.

Change of plans.

I don't know

if a taxi's gonna come by here.

-I can't walk anymore in these shoes.

-Guys, you didn't have to come.

Wyatt's really good

with this stuff.

She slipped on the ice.

Hey, I'm Wyatt,

what's your name?

-Sandy.

-Hey, Sandy.

-Nice to meet you.

-Yeah.

Okay, you mind if I take

a look at your face?

You look great.

-Do you remember hitting your head?

-I... no.

Can you look this way

for just a second?

You might want to take her to a

hospital if you want to be safe.

I hate ambulances. Emts are perverts

who smell like French fries.

-Wakey, wakey.

-Hey.

What you doing

sleeping in the stairway?

-I was...

-My gosh.

-You're um...

-did I fall asleep?

Yup. You look like

you fell asleep.

-I'm sorry.

-It's okay.

Is everybody okay?

-We're okay, are you okay?

-Yeah.

You wanna go get

some snacks?

Ahem. Mara Drake.

Yeah?

Thanks for staying

all that time.

Honestly, it's no big deal.

We're just gonna take

a cab from here.

-You sure?

-Yeah, boy scout.

She's just

really embarrassed.

-Don't get any ideas.

-Don't flatter yourself.

-Okay, night.

-Okay.

Good night.

I think she likes

you anyway.

You want some?

I'm okay.

Hey, I gotta go

to work tomorrow.

Are you looking

for um, a new...

Job?

You're cool.

You're probably cool.

I'm leaving town.

I have

the bus tickets, so.

Well, you're staying

here till then.

Was tonight

just supposed to be a date

between

the two of you?

It wasn't a date.

Thank you.

All I know

is now that you're here,

everything's

gonna get awesome.

You should be very careful.

Do not look

at Christian.

Go down to the basement

of your building right now.

We warned you

not to go into the cities.

In the cities,

they are everywhere.

Their plan

is almost complete.

If we do not stop them,

they will enslave the butcher

in every good person

left on earth.

You must prepare

for the war.

You want to protect

your friend,

but helping him

will be impossible.

He is good.

He is still human.

But he will not believe you.

Leave the city tonight.

We still do not know

how to infect the host.

Never look at their eyes.

When I reveal

my identity,

you must never contact me,

ever.

Here is what you must do.

You've reached the offices

of Dr. James calvino.

Please leave a message.

Hello, sir.

This is Wyatt goodwin. I'm sorry

to be calling you so late.

I was wondering if we could

move our meeting to tomorrow.

Please let me know.

Thank you.

Can I get a copy

of these, please?

-Morning.

-Hey, man. What you doing there?

Just making a sandwich.

I brought some coffee, too.

Thank you.

How'd you sleep

last night?

Great.

-Air mattress okay?

-Yeah. Real comfortable.

Nice.

Hey, were you still working

at that repair store in nc?

Landscaping and maintenance

at the sisters of mercy.

-It was a nunnery.

-That's wild.

Yeah. They didn't need

anybody as much, so.

Wanna grab lunch

with me today?

-I, gotta run some stupid errands.

-Great.

Um, hey, man, I made an extra set

of keys for you. It's no big deal.

I don't,

I don't need keys.

I'm gonna leave

in a few days.

It's New York,

you need keys.

Nuns?

You are an ocean.

Weapons, swords and knives

all flow through you

like nothing.

You encompass

the entire world...

in your depth.

-There he is.

-Hi.

You look ten-feet tall.

I don't think

I'm schizophrenic.

I looked up

some stuff online.

Never any drugs.

No alcohol

for about ten weeks.

No caffeine.

All right.

It's the plight of the lame

and the boring, what a joke.

Did you ever have

a long-term relationship

that didn't wind up

letting you down?

This friend

I'm staying with.

Chris,

the little skinny guy?

Is there some medication

you can give me?

Sure.

-Will it help?

-Yeah.

Anything else?

It's stupid.

There was

this one dream, once.

Where certain people

around me didn't look human.

It started with my fiance.

I never want to see

what she turned into again.

It's like

they're in my head,

they're listening to me.

It's getting worse.

I know

it's silly, right?

Do your parents

know about this?

No, is that all right?
