Look, I'm sorry. I didn't know that.

I mean,

I knew you guys served together.

I didn't know

you were related, though.

Man, she really f***ed him up good,

huh?

()

I'm just trying to think of reasons

why I shouldn't kill you!

I'll... I'll pay you more.

What's that?

You kill me, you get nothing.

You pull this off, I'll give you 400,000.

Okay? I was supposed

to give you 2, right?

But you should have your brother's share.

That's only fair.

Plus, I'M throw in an extra 100. Each.

If we can finish this. Okay?

That's half a million for you.

And 300,000 for you. I'm looking at, uh...

(FELIX GRUNTING)

I won't... I won't be able to pay you

until my inheritance comes through

but I'll have it soon.

We just need to finish this!

We did make it this far, man.

You two better be getting

enough money to pay us!

Would I be doing this if I wasn't?

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

I got it.

(GRUNTS THEN COUGHING)

Get up! Get after her! Get after her!

Hell, the cops could be driving here

right now, for all we know.

What it they come across her down the road?

Did you even think about that?

You need to calm down.

Don't f***ing tell me to calm down, Tom.

This entire situation is out of control.

We don't even know

what's going on.

She's hurt.

She's not faster than us.

You stick to the road. You don't

see her, you come back here.

Well, where are you going?

Back to the house

to check on Craig

and to make sure

she's not doubling back.

Wait, give us the crossbow.

Look, you got your machete.

We don't have any weapons.

What are you standing there for?

Give it to me!

(LAUGHS)

You know how to use that thing?

I know how to f***ing use it.

I pull the trigger, arrow shoots, right?

Two bolts. Two shots.

You see her, you make it count.

Of course.

(GLASS CRUNCHING)

Sh*t.

FELIX:
What the f***?

I f***ing hit her, didn't I? Get in there.

Give me the crossbow.

Come on!

All right. I'm right behind you.

Okay.

Goddamn it.

(KEYPAD BEEPS)

MAN:
(OVER PHONE)

Felix?

Hey. Felix, is it all done

in there or what?

I saw my signal came back.

Is it over?

Look, I know you're pissed at me

for not helping out.

I just... I couldn't do it, man. I...

I told you this might happen.

(CRISPIAN SIGHS OVER PHONE)

I saw Mom, and the blood,

and you know I'm a pacifist.

I can't... I can't deal

with the violent stuff.

Come on, now. I can hear you breathing

on the other end of the phone.

Felix?

It's... It's f***ing freezing out here.

I'm coming inside.

Felix?

Felix?

(FOOTSTEPS)

Erin.

You're okay.

Where's Felix?

I stuck a blender in his head

and killed him.

Oh.

Okay.

I can't believe you were in on this.

(SIGHS)

Come on, babe. You do know

how broke we are, right?

You would have killed me.

No! That was never

supposed to happen.

Even if you hadn't meant to kill me,

you must have known I could have died.

No.

You were supposed to

be the witness.

A person with a clean record

that could attest that our family

and neighbors had been murdered

by unknown lunatics.

It was, in fact, a very important part

of my plan that you be unharmed.

We needed someone with no motive

to see what had happened here.

(SIGHS)

Someone other than Zee,

obviously.

Where is Zee?

I killed her too.

Oh.

Totally understand.

Listen. I'm sorry

things got so out of control,

but how were we

supposed to know

that you were really good

at killing people?

Which is actually sort of weird,

by the way.

Had you reacted, um, normally,

my parents and siblings

would have been killed,

you'd have been untouched...

and we'd be rich.

We'd be on our way to,

like, a vacation in Paris.

Maybe an engagement?

Okay. Okay.

(SNIFFLES)

There is a silver lining here,

by the way.

I'm now the sole inheritor

of my family's estate.

We're talking millions, babe.

You. Me.

Us.

Look.

Regardless of

our current situation...

or whatever

we're going through right now...

it would be insane

to throw that away.

I mean, look at all

that would be wasted.

I understand it might take a while

to make this up to you.

But in the meantime,

let's think about this logically.

I know you've got

your student loans.

How would $500,000 go towards

fixing that problem?

You could quit your bartending job,

just study full time.

You know you hate that job.

You could have 500,000

within the month.

(SIGHS)

Or I go to jail...

and you get nothing.

(SOFTLY) Hey.

I love you.

I promised you that

I'd come back, didn't I?

Here I am.

(COUGHING AND GASPING)

Why?

Why the f*** not?

(GUNSHOT)

(INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER)

Oh, f***.

(GASPING)

We need medic and backup

immediately at 5 Edelweiss Drive.

No! Don't!
