Another Soul

- Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! -

Calm down. Calm down. Calm down.

Breathe, come on.

It's getting worse.

She has an active imagination.

She's really scared.

I know. But there's no signs of anybody coming in so I don't know what we can do.

She wants to move back.

That's it, isn't it? This is part of that?

- I don't think she's making this up. - It's not an option.

This is the only place we can afford, and it's close to my job.

- Uh, we could move back. - We can't. They're still looking for us.

You shouldn't have borrowed from them.

It was the only option.

- You should've... - What? Just let you die?

There was no miracle match coming to that hospital.

- It could have happened! - It was the only way.

We could've found another way.

I found a way, and you're alive.

This is a small town. They're not going to look for us here.

Hopefully, maybe, you can find a job.

Pay them back. I don't know how...

...but we will.

Hello?

Hello?

Come out.

I don't want any trouble.

I don't want any trouble.

Just...

...so just come out!

Maybe you can help your father unpack in the basement.

Do I have to?

No.

But it would be nice to get everything in order so we can enjoy the house.

Will that do it?

Hey, don't worry about it.

You can help out another night. It's all mine tonight.

Once school starts, you'll like it better here.

I don't like it here.

Give it time. You'll make new friends once school starts.

We have to make it work. Hopefully your father gets a job.

Megan, did you just say something?

Rob! Rob! Rob!

There was somebody there.

I checked everywhere. All the doors are locked.

- Maybe it was a mouse. -

It wasn't a mouse. Too big, and that sound.

Well, it's an old house, so...

- Megan didn't say anything? - No, she didn't notice anything.

So... so out of it for that minute.

She seems out of it a lot.

Maybe just the stress of a new school.

Probably.

- -

Bitch is mine! -

What are you doing?

Other...

...There was a...

Bitch is mine!

- We are both tired and stressed. - I didn't imagine it.

So some creature running around, perched on the walls. Is that is?

- You saw something too. - I thought I did, but no faces.

It's just stress, probably.

Something doesn't feel right here.

So you want to go back too? Well, I guess Megan is getting to you.

- I didn't say that. But it's not... - I have to go to work.

We can talk later.

What's happening to me? - Nothing. You just need to rest.

I feel so tired all the time.

It'll pass.

I'm scared.

There's nothing to be scared about.

She's coming for me.

What are you talking about?

I can't see her clearly, but she's coming.

Nobody's coming for you. I won't let anything happen to you.

I feel her every night.

Look.

If anybody's coming in here, we'll catch them. So don't worry.

I'm on watch all night.

Good night, Megan.

Good night.

- -

Megan, I'm going to go wake up your mom. Can you get the coffee going?

Oh, hey, honey, it's just me. Don't be scared.

Wait. You?

What?

- Weren't you just downstairs? - No.

We must have had a blackout. All the clocks reset.

- It was fine last night. - I thought it thundered.

- You see that? - What?

There.

Play it again.

I turned.

Something moved.

It was my shadow.

Maybe.

Hey.

- Got something for you. - It's not my birthday yet.

I know. But I saw this at the antique store.

It's an advance gift.

- It's beautiful. - What's beautiful?

This.

Where did you get that?

Got it at an antique store.

It's beautiful, right?

Open it.

- Love that picture. - Thanks, Dad.

Oh! Oh, you're strong. Going to mess up my new kidney.

- Sorry. - Just kidding.

I know things have been rough, but everything's going to be okay.

All right?

Right.

Hope so.

Time for school.

What store did you say you got that at again?

At the...

What does it matter?

It doesn't. Just curious.

Hi.

Hi.

Uh, sorry to bother you. I'm Skip. This is my partner, Helena.

- Do we know each other? - No. We were just...

- How can I help you? -

Well, it's, um, how we can help you, actually.

- Your daughter's in danger. - What do you know about my daughter?

Your daughter is in danger, and I can tell by your face you know.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Your daughter is being targeted, and we're here to help you.

- Please, Robert, hear us out. - How do you know my name?

Listen, we followed the signs to you. The ones before you.

The birth records. The whole profile.

It's not from the world of the living.

Her birthday is in three days. That's all the time you have.

You're crazy. Both of you. Now get out of here.

You don't have much time left. Please.

- All right, get out of here, now! - Okay, okay, okay. We're sorry.

We're go... we're going, we're going. Just, um, take my card.

- Please. - Go!

Call me.

Are you really going to stay down here again?

- I need to. -

What are you doing?

Backup, in case the power goes out again.

It won't. It's supposed to be clear tonight.

I hope it is!

Susan! Susan!

- Susan! -

Susan! Susan!

Susan.

Hey, Susan.

You should go to the doctor. It's okay. It's just surface cuts.

- It might get infected. -

They won't.

Well, we have to report this. Whoever did this is still out there.

What are we going to report? Someone carved crosses on my back...

- ...and we didn't see him? - That's the truth.

We can't afford for people to think we are crazy.

- No, they won't. - They will.

People don't hire crazies. I can't lose this job.

- Then what can we do? - I don't know!

Cameras.

I had another bad dream. -

- Father Mullins, thank you for coming. - Well, I'll be happy to help if I can.
