Hey, how's it going?
Good.
Good.
Nice day for a hike.
Yeah.
Know much about the area?
About the Terrortory?
Yeah, the Terrortory.
Well actually, I've spent the last two years mapping it.
Really?
Really.
Why?
Curiosity.
Something to pass the time during retirement.
But that first month out of here...
What?
I saw things.
Like what?
The thing is, I could tell you about it but...
that would take time.
And I've only got so much daylight.
I don't stay out here past sundown if I can help it.
If you don't mind, I can tag along,
hear some stories.
Sure.
Gonna have to warn you, I stop a lot to make notes.
No problem.
See, the Terrortory's not what everybody thinks it is.
They think it's this huge area where bad shit happens.
Yeah, okay it is, but it's not just that.
I mean it's huge.
I myself don't even know where it ends.
I'm Greg by the way.
Aiden.
Yeah, it's crazy.
I mean there are whole areas in it that are...
relatively safe to be in.
Hell, there's a whole town located inside the lines.
What town?
Believe me, you've heard of it.
Yeah, the Terrortory's not like one region where random bad things happen.
The things, like you've heard of Smiling Jack?
Each thing has its own area that it stays in.
And there are buffer zones between the areas.
Buffer zones where it's completely safe to be in.
Are we in one right now?
Yeah.
If you take this trail and go off to the left
we'll be heading toward the Fountain.
Doesn't sound so bad.
Oh, you never heard of it?
Uh uh.
Well, I'll tell you the story I've heard.
This can't be right.
There hasn't been another road
since we left the highway.
Maybe we took the wrong exit.
Well we're not on the map.
No man's land for sure.
Who told you about this place anyways?
There were some photos at a gallery.
I asked the dealer.
And he said to vanish off into the middle of nowhere.
You didn't have to come.
And miss out on all the fun?
I think we passed a country store right off the exit.
Maybe we should turn around and ask for directions.
Megs, that's like 20 minutes back the way we came.
Maybe we missed the turn.
We should have been there by now.
Hope I can dodge all this traffic.
Cheery place.
I wouldn't use the restroom if I were you.
Hey.
Hello, I'm Lamia.
Lamia, that's a pretty unique name.
It's my grandmother's.
It's beautiful.
Was there something I can help you with?
Yeah, my wife and me seem to be a little lost.
There's a garden around here,
somewhere in the forest, I believe.
Can't seem to find the road though.
You're not lost.
No?
You're right here.
It's super close, I can show you if you like.
Show me.
Hey Tom.
Hey babe.
Any luck?
Yeah, it's just, we're just,
I was just telling your husband that
behind the gas station is a path that leads to the garden.
It's a really short walk.
You can even leave your car here.
Really?
I can show you if you like.
No thanks, I think I already saw it.
Are you ready?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Thank you.
There's a fountain.
What's that?
In the path, there's a fountain.
Make sure you both make a wish.
Right, thank you.
Thank you.
There.
Pretty lucky, huh?
Mhmm.
Well we could have been driving for hours.
What, what's wrong?
Forget it.
Tell me.
What was going on in there?
What are you talking about?
You were practically drooling on her.
Who, the girl back at the store?
Come on, Megan.
I'm just starting to think that this thing will never happen.
What thing?
Kids, Tom, children?
Okay, you got me there.
What do kids and the chick at the store
have anything to do together?
You say you're not ready to have a baby
but I'm starting to wonder if that's because
you have one foot out the door.
I don't have one foot out the door.
And you're looking for an out.
I'm not looking for an out, Megan.
What happened last year, that was a mistake,
a big mistake.
But you and I, we've worked so hard
to get through that together.
- I don't want you to feel like... - I know, I'm just insecure, okay?
You're all I need, Megs.
You're all I want.
Uh, is this it?
I think so.
Pff.
Well maybe it's out of season.
That's not good.
The water looks disgusting.
Yeah, smells bad too, but fuck it.
Two pennies, two wishes.
What do you say?
You first.
What'd you wish for?
You know the rules, I can't tell you.
Your turn.
Did you see enough, ready to go?
We gotta hike.
Yeah, let's go.
Okay.
It shouldn't take this long to get back.
We haven't left the path.
We stay on it, we get to the road.
We should have been back by now.
Ooh, ow,
What's wrong?
My stomach.
You gonna be sick?
Just give me a minute.
Did you eat something back at the store?
Mm-mmm.
I'm okay.
You sure?
Let's just go.
That can't be the same fountain.
How many fountains do you think are out here, Tom?
What, I don't know.
Maybe we got turned around somehow.
In a straight line, on a path?
Jesus, babe.
Look, sit.
Come on, sit down.
Something's wrong with me.
What should I do?
Are you all right?
Okay, I'm just gonna go up this way for a bit.
Just try for some signal, okay?
Okay.
Don't be long.
I won't.
Come on, come on!
Fuck!
Oh, come on, come on!
Megan, Megan!
Megs!
I wished to be pregnant.
Wish it away, wish it away!
I don't have any change!
Oh God.
Oh I can't feel the bottom.
There's something in here.
Megs!
You wanted to fuck the girl at the gas station.
