maybe you could give us

a tour of the woods.

- I hunt alone.

I always have and I always will.

I'm set in my ways, Tina.

- It's Gina.

- Yes well, catch you soon.

- Okay we are not

going into the woods.

- Oh come on.

- Oh yeah hi Miss Perkins,

here we are in the woods,

with a f***ing dead body!

Okay you guys get a spade,

I'll go check on Lisa.

- Yeah.

Come on.

(pigeon cooing)

I guess this is as

bad a place as any.

- The worst.

(eerie music)

- Lisa, you okay?

- Either Miss Perkins

really likes picture frames

or there's something she's

trying to hide or forget.

- Okay, well I think we just

need to give her her space.

- Why have all the frames?

- I don't know.

She said she doesn't

have visitors.

Maybe she just doesn't care.

Come on, why don't

we catch up outside?

We haven't caught up in ages

- Yeah and who's fault is that?

- Tell me what

you've been doing,

how's your singing going?

- I haven't sang since I was 14.

- Lisa, don't go in there.

That's Miss Perkins' room.

(shovel clanking)

(ominous music)

Lisa!

- [Lisa] It's not very

organized for someone

who likes their routines.

- Yeah well she doesn't

have visitors, so,

and especially not in here.

What's that?

- "1987, 36-year-old

man Connor Perkins

"is missing after a double

murder in his family home.

"Mr. Perkins is

suspected of murdering

"both his wife Susan Perkins

and her mother Chris Morrey

"after the police found

them in the shed together,

"with blunt trauma to the head.

(dramatic music)

(women screaming)

"His daughter is

also in critical care

"and remains in

Bamshire Hospital.

"Connor Perkins is believed

to have called the police

"prior to his escape,

remains at large."

- Miss Perkins lost

her parents too.

- Do you think that's

who's in the shed?

- Connor?

- I hope we get to shower

before the wedding tomorrow.

Grave digging followed by

a car journey with you guys

is just ugh.

- Yeah.

- Feels weird doesn't it?

Talking about a wedding now.

- It's f***ed.

- I guess it's good to talk

about other things though.

- I think it's you

that's talking.

- Hey, how's your catch?

- I am a catch.

(Gina laughing)

- So you're gonna leave me

to go and catch the bouquet?

I'm kidding.

- Look Gina.

I just, I like you.

I...

- You can be honest.

- I just don't know

what I want, okay?

- You got a funny

way of showing it.

- Let's get married Gina.

I'm so excited by

the idea of marriage

and the smell of grave digging.

I can't wait to tell all of our

grandchildren what amazing...

- Yeah I get it, I get it.

- Do you?

I don't think you do.

Does any of this actually

f***ing bother you?

Lisa's f***ed, I don't even

know what Melissa's thinking.

But you?

- Me?

- Yeah!

What the f*** are you thinking?

- I just want us to...

- To be what?

To live happily ever after?

I don't know how

you can stand there

and pretend that

we can be some...

- If you hadn't of got

out of that god damn car!

- F*** you!

- Oh really?

Are you done?

- [Thalia] You can dig

your own f***ing grave!

(sad music)

(door clattering)

- Shh.

(mysterious music)

- Come on!

(moving to dramatic music)

- Hey you guys come and

help me move the body?

- Where's Thalia?

- I don't wanna talk about it.

(eerie music)

(Thalia grunting)

Let's get this over

and done with, yeah?

Okay go go go go.

Quick, quick.

(eerie music)

- What the f***?

(pigeons cooing)

- Hey!

Mel?

(pigeons cooing)

Melissa?

(moving to ominous music)

You said he was dead.

- He was dead!

- Well what if he calls

the f***ing police?

- Oh Mel, so what if he f***ing

calls the police, all right?

- So what if he

calls the police?

- Yes!

He attacked you!

- Shhh.

- He attacked you!

Why do you f***ing care?

(Melissa stutters)

Oh my god.

Are you serious?

- I can't f***ing deal

with you right now.

Just calm down!

Okay, Thalia is missing

in the f***ing woods okay?

She is missing!

- How do you know that?

- [Gina] You don't care?

- Of course I care.

- No you don't care.

You just care about

that stupid body.

God.

(groans)

(sighs)

- So what's going on

with you two anyway?

- Nothing.

- Nothing?

- Yeah, nothing.

- Didn't sound like nothing.

(both chuckling)

- Did you hear that?

- Yeah thanks.

- Sorry.

- You know she's probably

pulling one of her pranks.

I wouldn't be surprised

if she comes back

in like two minutes time.

Seriously.

Eww God!

- You got dirt on you Mel.

- Come here.

We really have to sort this out.

Did you catch anything?

- Not exactly.

I hope you like vegetables.

- Uh, yes.

- Where are your friends?

- Oh uh, Lisa is

inside and um...

(eerie music)

(Thalia panting)

(Thalia whimpering)

(door squeaking)

(eerie music)

(heavy pounding)

(Thalia gasping)

(pigeon fluttering)

(heavy pounding)

(Thalia gasping)

(ominous music)

(Thalia whimpering)

(Thalia screaming)

(blade slicing)

- I warned you girls

for your own protection.

I said very clearly you

should not go into the woods

and you walk into the woods.

It's like a...

- Like a maze.

Yeah, yeah, we get it.

- Even I would not venture

past my regular routes.

- Do you have any

family Miss Perkins?

- My family have all

passed away sadly.

- Sorry.

- What for?

My mother, she was

a wicked woman.

Drove my father right up the,

whatever word you young

things use these days.

At least that's what I hear.

I don't even remember my family.

I was too young.

- Did you live here as a family?

- Yes.

- Sorry.

It's just I lost

my family is all.

My parents.

- I do apologize for

not having a telephone,

but tomorrow

our gardener will

hopefully, he'll be able to

to get your car ready and put

you in touch with the police

and then maybe they

will find your friend.

I appreciate this is

all very difficult.

- Do you?

- I have let you into my house.

Do not be bitter with me.

And you wonder why I

don't like visitors.

(eerie music)

(Thalia panting)

(Thalia crying)

(door clattering)

(footsteps clomping)

(Thalia screaming)

(Thalia panting)

(ominous drumming music)

(Thalia coughing)

(Thalia screams)

(clock chiming)

- F*** sake.

I don't know what

we're gonna do.

Even if we get gas

tomorrow, Thalia's not here.

Surely she would have

been home by now.

I had the most incredible

day planned for us,

followed by an early

night so we could be ready

for the big day.

This is a nightmare.

- I got you something.

- What?

- Something old.

Gina coordinated.

- What are you talking about?

- She knows, something

old, something new,
