The real world seems a million miles away.

It's the time to create your own place.

In your own reality.

Why? You're not scared, are you?

It's like magic!

What is it? Can you see them?

Oh yeah, just like in a comic book.

It's like magic!

anything you want, anything you want.

Just like in the comic book.

I told you to come back here.

You should have known you were going to get caught.

Too bad that life isn't like a comedy.

Common. Commonies?

Do they always jerk like that?

Commonies? Yeah. They kick for a while.

Then they stop.

I don't know why.

It doesn't look like I thought it would.

Definitely never does.

Commonies.

If you did your job, little sister, you'd be proud.

Too bad that life isn't life.

Allison.

Allison!

Quit fucking around in that comic book and get downstairs and clean that shit

up.

Go!

I remember this watch.

It was his watch.

He said it kept perfect time.

Never slowed for a second.

I think this guy really liked me.

He was different than the rest.

Hey, what you got there, sis, huh?

You better not be trying to hide anything, Allison. Especially if it's

money. You know what Mama will do to you.

Not to mention Jonah.

That's nice.

It was Daniel.

He liked it a lot.

He liked me a lot, too.

No one likes you. You're crazy.

I'm not crazy.

They like me and they take me to dinner. Yeah?

Then look what he gets them.

Now hurry up and finish.

Mama says it's time to eat.

And I'm going to show her this.

And I'm going to tell her you tried to keep it. No, Rizzo, don't. I'll get in

trouble.

But you owe me.

We're all part of the family.

What, you think she's different?

You think she can just turn it off?

I don't think so.

We're killers.

That's what we do.

God, I met the cutest guy this weekend.

There was a club that I went to with a few friends. That was great.

So how about you?

Do you have anything noteworthy, or do you just sit at home as usual?

Well, define noteworthy.

No, you know, I just don't like the club scene anymore. I'd rather just sit at

home and watch TV or read a good book. Of course, the whole time you're

polishing off a fifth of bourbon.

I know, right?

Alright guys, don't you think it's time we get back to work?

I

thought

you might like this.

Now you owe me.

Next weekend you're coming out with us, like it or not.

I'll let you know.

What do you think the odds are that I'd be the first one on this crash scene?

Especially on this country road so far away from anything.

I don't know.

Please help.

I think my girlfriend's dead.

Oh, she's dead, all right. Her face spattered all over that glass.

He's stuck in there pretty good, ain't you, boy?

You know, all that squirming you're doing is just going to make it hurt

I got to ask you something.

Something real important.

Yeah, you won't be a cripple wreck your life now, do you?

No?

No, don't. I don't want to be crippled.

I wouldn't think you would, son.

I wouldn't want to go through the rest of my life being no damn crippled

What? What?

Nope.

Stupid fucking cripple just ain't no way to go.

Car 3, Car 3, you read me, Jade?

Yes, Sheriff, I'm here.

Come back?

Looks like we got ourselves a double fatality car wreck out here on Route 29.

That's terrible.

Anybody I know?

No, just a couple dumbass teenagers drinking and driving.

Better send the wagon.

And, oh, call up that cousin of mine and tell him to expect a couple visitors

shortly. I guess that's the benefit of being the only mortuary in town, huh,

Sheriff?

I'd say it's more like the benefit of being my fucking cousin.

Car 3 out.

I wonder why these kids got this kick -ass weed.

It looks good, Danielle.

Really good.

As a matter of fact, it looks a little too good.

The one thing that I do love about your work is you are so detailed.

I mean, you really do give new meaning to the term, dot your I's and cross your

T's. The amount of time it takes you to do this is sometimes, well, for lack of

a better word, overkill.

I'm sorry, sir.

I was just raised to do a job the best that I could do.

Everything has to be planned and thought out.

If you flip up, the devil's in the details, right?

Oh, don't get me wrong. I do love your work.

I just never thought I'd hear myself say this.

Just don't be so damn perfect.

Yes, sir.

I'll try to be a little less detailed.

Right?

Great.

That's all then.

I'll take that.

Keep up the good work.

You're headed for Employee of the Month, Danielle.

Employee of the Month.

Don't let me down now.

I know you can do it.

What's the matter, babe?

I wouldn't let that old man get to you if I were you.

Well, you're not me.

And I'm not letting that old man get to me. He just gave me some insight on my

work. And that was that.

It's really none of your business, Ray.

Au contraire, my dear.

See, I'm the corporate food chain staring at the top. It goes something

this. You got the real rich guys, uh, him, me.

some other people I barely know, and then you.

And I'm always concerned with the overall performance of my employees.

Things can go a lot easier around here if you just lighten up and be a little

bit more friendly with them.

Now, I'm a new millennium guy, and I know all the rules about sexual

believe you me.

But there's nothing wrong with two fellow employees, such as yourself and

going out together for dinner one night.

You know, like buddies.

Look, Lee, I've only been here for six months.

And you've been here a lot longer than that.

But your reputation around here with these women are a thing of legend.

And on top of that, you're a married man.

So I don't think your wife would be too happy with me taking you up on a dinner

invitation, buddies or not.

So please, Ray, let me get back to work.

Okay, I hear you.

But just remember, when you're ready for that night out, I'll be around.

Okay.

Look, you idiot. Just tell your brother I got a delivery for him.

Yeah,

yeah, I know the drill.

Okay, I just thought you'd like to know that I was here.

Man, you need to see a shrink or something, man. You ain't playing with a

deck.

Fuck you.

What'd you say?

Fuck you.

You better start showing me some respect. Your ass is going to be the

fuck on that slab, whether I'm wearing a fucking pirate suit or not.

Do you understand me?

Yeah, I understand.

All right, okay, okay, okay.

Just tell your brother I got a delivery for him around the goddamn back.

Man, this is one fucked up family.

What was that?

I didn't say I got it.

Cut yourself shaving or what?

No, I didn't.

You need to have a talk with that little brother of yours, Jonah.

He about killed me a minute ago over something completely ridiculous.

Ridiculous? Well, you might think it's ridiculous.

Why not be ridiculous to him?

Trust me on that one.

What a waste.

Jonah, thanks for the help.

Yeah, by the way, in the future, I wouldn't fuck with Randall.

Yeah.

That good, ain't it, boy?

You're welcome.

All right, Jonah, that's enough of that shit.

Look him over, see what he's got to offer us.

From the looks of him, not much.

Yeah, well, either way, get him ready for tomorrow.

You know what I feel like cooking?

See what he's got for the pot.

What the hell happened to him?

Because of Jimmy's, what happened to him?

That was after the car wreck.

Yeah, well, nothing's going to happen now but you, Jonah.

Randall, you help your brother.

I'll get the girl. I'll get the girl.

You'll get what Jonah tells you to get.

Now, I don't want either one of you forgetting about your sister, by the

Where the hell is she?

I don't know, Mama. I've never seen her.

It's been six months.

Things ain't been the same without her.

You two can't do half the collecting she did.

Now, Mama, me and Jonah do just fine collecting. The hell you do. Now, I've

waited long enough. You go out there and you find that little bitch and you

bring her back.

Nobody leaves me high and dry unless they're in a pine fucking box.

Like your dear departed father.

God rest his soul.

Put it aside, Danielle.

for you to finally come out with us with a Monday morning muffin.

Hey, is that some kind of freaky lesbian come on?

No, you idiot. I was talking about the muffin I gave her the other morning.

I believe I was talking to her and not you drunken whores.

No,

it wasn't that.

I didn't even get the hell out for a change.

Too much focus on work and not enough focus on me.

And according to that boss of mine, I'm focusing too much on my work.

Well, looks like Danielle Holzer's on the prowl.

No, I'm not that drunk yet.

I did say yet, didn't I?

Men are just really too complicated to really get to know.

Mama always said the best men are running scared.

Yeah, that's a real educational thing.

Mama must have been a real killer with the men.

Girl, if you only knew.

Hi, ladies. How you doing? My name is John. This is Steve.

We were wondering if you girls would like to dance with us.

My friend right here would. Right, Danielle?

Oh, no, no, no. I don't think so.

Oh, yeah, she thinks so. She's been begging for it. All night.

All right, all right.

John, you say it wise?

So, one down,

one to go, right?

You're the one that has to go.

Oh.

So horrible.

I didn't step on you, did I?

No, no.

It's not you.

Give me a drink.

you

Welcome to my home, everyone.

It's a small and humble abode, but I'm sure you'll find the finer points to

liking. And what would those finer points be?

Well, they would be the alcohol in the cabinet and

the gorgeous naked lady in my bedroom.

Naked lady?

Some sort of swinger joint or something?

No, you idiots. I'm talking about me.

Come on, you. Let's get fully acquainted.

And you two make yourselves at home.

In case you need to know, that couch turns into a nice -sized bed.

You have to be nice to us.

I don't know about you, but this is a little awkward.

Yeah, it is a little awkward.

How about a picture filled with drinks?

Sounds good, but not too much for me.

I've had enough of one night.

No problem.

Came here last night with Jill.

Two guys.

Don't want my clothes on, so nothing happened.

Is everyone alright in there?

Jill, can you hear me?

Is everything alright?

What is it? Are you all right?

Of course I'm all right.

I need you to take that bag of food down to your little sister in the basement.

I know she's hungry by now.

Mama.

Why do I got to do that? She scares me. Quit your whining, Randall.

You're the death of me. You're doing it because your brother ain't here, or your

fucking sister for that matter.

How could Emily scare you? She's so sweet.

And you know she loves you.

Not like the other whore sister of yours who ran off and left her pie and dry.

Get downstairs, like I said.

Right, Mama.

I'll go.

Mama, why are you always watching that crappy TV? We got a good one with cable,

you know.

I don't need cable.

It's the work of the devil.

Get the fuck out of here!

How'd you get out of your room?

You know Mama don't like that.

I brought you some food.

I got some food for you.

Mama fixed it the way you like it.

All right, Emily, look.

Enough with the games. I got work to do. So if you want this food, you better

show yourself right damn now.

Shit.

Scared me.

Good night, Bella.

I thought it were you and Jonah paint the lady.

That's nice, Emily.

You look real pretty that way.

You've got to stop sneaking out of your room.

You get hurt in a big place like this.

Here.

Here's a good girl.

What you got there?

A magazine?

I don't know.

I'll hide it behind some box.

I know what that is.

Those are stupid comic books your older sister used to draw and when she'd start

cracking up. Cracking up.

Cracking up?

Well, you see, Allison couldn't always handle her job as good as me or Jonah.

She'd start drawing in these books like she's creating some better world for

herself or something.

I didn't get it, because all she had to do was get the boys to take her to

dinner. Me and Jonah did the hard part.

We all got jobs to do, Emily. And one day, when you're a little bit older,

You'll have an important job, too.

Although it probably won't be to bring home the men, because your sister was a

little bit more of a looker.

Huh?

Don't worry about that, you just eat your food.

I don't know why that stupid bitch had to draw in these comic books.

Our world's a whole lot more fun than the ones she put in here.

Well, I guess by now all of you have heard the terrible tragedy that has

befallen one of our most cherished co -workers,

Jill Stevens, a few nights ago.

There wasn't a better person.

that you would work with or have her work for you, as with my kid.

I hope we can all get on with our lives and our work without too much

distraction.

Remember, if there's anything I can do to help you through this terrible

my office is always open.

I have the...

funeral arrangements with the time and location.

Of course, all of you will be excused from work during that time if you wish

go.

That's about it.

I hope we can all put this behind us and move on.

Thank you.

Let's get back to work.

I know you were really close to Jill.

I'm sorry for you as well.

Such a terrible tragedy.

Get out of here.

Get out of there.

Get out of there. I said get out of there.

Allison.

I'm sorry.

How are you holding up?

You know, you should really take me up on that offer. I know that would make

feel better.

Okay, I will.

What'd you say?

Okay, I will.

All right.

How's Friday night at 8's on?

Sounds like we're going to dinner.

I'm really glad you accepted my invitation for a night out, Danielle.

And to be completely honest with you...

I was a little bit nervous about asking.

Nervous about asking me?

You could have any girl at work read.

I don't think it's... Yeah, I know. I know. But it's you I like.

You're not like the rest of those girls.

I think we have, uh... I think we have a chemistry.

And plus, the rest of those girls might not be so understanding about my little

predicament.

Is that what they're calling marriages these days, Reed? A predicament?

No.

Well... Yeah, I guess as it pertains to me anyway.

See me and my wife, we just don't see eye to eye anymore, Danielle.

You seemed like you understood when we talked about it at the office.

I know, I know.

I'm just kidding with you.

I'm glad we're here.

Honest.

And I won't tell a soul.

I promise.

What's wrong, Danielle?

Did I say something wrong?

You're shaking.

Is that better?

Yeah.

Are you ready to go?

Yeah, sounds good at the moment.

You can throw your coat over here.

Sorry, Reed.

What about the other girls at work?

Have you had any relationships with any of them?

No, Danielle.

You know I can't answer that.

Plus, I think you'd respect me a lot more if I wasn't a kiss -and -tell kind

guy.

To be perfectly honest with you, Reed, I would have respected you a hell of a

lot more if you hadn't just been a kiss -and -tell kind of guy.

Well... You know what? It doesn't matter anyways. All that matters is that I'm

here with you.

So let's think about us.

Deal.

So does that lead to the basement?

No, it doesn't. There's no storage closet.

Looks like a basement door to me.

Well, the doors and the rooms in my house are my business.

That should make sense to someone as conceited as you, Reed.

Damn, girl.

All right, calm down.

Geez, who would have thought talking about a door would have turned you into

Linda freaking Blair?

I'm sorry.

Hey, you want to see my head spin around?

Well, I gotta go to little girl's room.

Will you be okay for a few minutes by yourself?

Sure thing, milady. And I'll wait for your most anticipated turn.

Look at that.

They still twitch like they used to.

Thank you.

We'll be right back.

Damn it, Jonah, you gave me the heavy side.

Allison. You know Allison, there was a time when I wanted to leave here too.

See what was out there.

I thought I'd been missing something. Thought I'd like to spread my wings.

You were really young then, so I left you with Jonah to look after you.

I know, Mama. I'm sorry.

I'm not done, girl.

I had myself a time there for a while.

I thought I was different. I thought I was special.

And then one night after I was closing up at the restaurant that I worked at,

Walk into my car, and I didn't even see the van that was parked next to me.

Before I could even unlock my door, they had me.

I didn't even have time to scream.

They threw me in the van and punched me until I blacked out, and the next thing

I know, there was excruciating pain all through my groin.

Five men had escaped from the asylum down in Brownsville, and they gang

me for three days.

dumped my body at the riverside.

Some old man and his son found me. I was halfway to Jesus by then.

Six months in the hospital.

So much internal damage and broken bones.

But one good thing came from it.

Your little sister Emily.

God blessed us with another one of the specials.

So you see, the grass is not always greener on the other side.

I'm glad you're back.

We missed you.

And that is all that will be said on the subject.

Now, you get out there.

And you bring home somebody for dinner, girl.

I know, Mama.

I understand now.

You're right.

And I'm glad to be back as well.

You know, I kind of miss this.

What do they say?

Old habits die hard.

Girl, you look so beautiful.

Just like I was here, eh?

Get out there.

Get him in the damn box, Rendall.

I am trying, Jonah, but they won't all fit in here.

I'll make them fit.

You'll make them fit.

Come on, motherfucker, you want them to fit? I'll make them the fuck fit.

In the damn bucket! In the damn bucket!

God damn it, Jonah! You filled him too fucking full!

You idiot.

I know how to unball my body.

Get out of there.

You see this?

You see this?

Yeah.

This is how we make our money, Randall.

The devil is in details.

This goes in our pockets.

This... Now,

let's get out of here. We've been out here way too long.

Get the good casket back in the car.

Yeah, Mama ain't gonna like it.

I don't give a shit what Mama likes.

Ooh, she's gonna get you.

She is gonna whoop your ass.

And I'm gonna laugh my ass off. You know why? You wanna know why, huh? You wanna

know why? You wanna know why?

Because, Jonah, I've been thinking, you know what?

I've been thinking that I don't like the way you're always bossing me around. Do

it this way, Randall. Do it that way, Randall.

I swear, Jonah, one of these days I am going to get me a... What?

You're going to what?

Nothing.

Let's just go.

I'm hungry.

Let's go.

She must be the lady that called in.

Yes, I'm Gladys. How could you tell?

Just called instant.

So you think something happened here?

Yes, I do.

So why don't you just tell me what you told them at the station?

Well, there was a young woman living in that house right there, and she was

there for about six months, maybe longer, and I would see her a lot

see, I observe things.

Of course you do.

Uh -huh. Well... I would pass her quite often, and some days she would be, like,

really nice to me, but then some days that girl wouldn't give me the time of

day. I mean, I don't understand what makes a person just want to ignore your

neighbors like that, because when you really think... Would you get to the

point, lady?

I got better things to do than to look inside some old house.

Frankly, this is a job for patrol, not me.

Well, that could be my fault as well.

No.

Yes. You see, I specifically asked for a homicide detective, because between you

and me, I think there's been... A murder.

Thank you so much for all your help.

Have a great day.

Hello?

Anybody home?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Fuck you.

Go home, Disney party.

Hello?

Yeah, it's the Durant.

Yeah, send over a crime scene unit.

Yeah, 112 South Durant.

Yeah, I'll be here.

Alright, thanks.

Shit.

Guess that crazy lady was right.

How have you been, Emily?

I've missed you.

Missed you too?

I played with your dolls.

I see that.

I hope you had as much fun as I did.

Mm -hmm.

Where did you go?

I just went away for a while.

But I'm back now, though.

We can have fun like we used to.

Linda and Jonah paint the ladies.

And the men sometimes, too.

You and I have other jobs.

You'll learn soon enough.

As for now, you just play.

Mama said you get out of here sometimes.

How do you do that?

I don't know.

Okay, Emily.

But don't get out.

It's dangerous out there.

Mama's right.

I know that now.

She's always right.

Now eat all your food now, Emily, so you can grow strong, okay?

I got some work to do.

If you're good, I'll let you play with him later.

Mama,

I'm going to go out for a while.

See if anybody missed me.

That's fine, my dear.

Now, you find yourself a traveling man, all right? Someone that won't be missed.

Yes, Mama.

Well, it looks like it's just you and me, big boy.

Alright, you want a girl?

You want a fucking girl? I'll get you a fucking girl.

See that?

If you'd stop running your fucking mouth and pay attention to what's around us,

you'd see that.

She's pretty, Jonah.

Shut up, you little assbag. Just go around the corner and we'll see where

going.

Showtime.

Save some for me, you bastard.

Well, Trevor, what do you think I am, bringing some strange truck driver home

have sex with?

Well, I've not thought that at all.

You might have brought me here for a little midnight confessional.

Want to go to my room?

Well, I hope you hadn't planned on taking me in there.

Give it to me, son. Come on. Give it to me. You said I could have the goddamn

girl. You want the girl?

Take your goddamn girl.

Don't stop, baby.

I'm getting so hot.

What the hell is that?

What the hell is going on here?

I doubt if you know what to do with her.

You know those people?

Shh.

What the hell is going on around here?

What did I tell you about that crying, huh?

After all I do for you, get up the goddamn stairs.

Bitch.

Must be out of my freaking mind coming home with some strange broad. Lives in a

freaking mortuary.

You know, one of these days, that wife of yours is going to figure your ass

You think so?

Oh, I know so.

Not if the woman's supposed to keep their mouth shut, actually keep their

shut.

You must be Sheriff Rydell.

I'm John Durant. We spoke a few days ago on the phone. The girl at your station

told me you usually make the rounds here this time of day.

Oh, he makes his rounds all right.

And you must be that big city detective that was looking for some girl.

Some girl I told you wasn't here.

That's well and good a few days ago, but the more I looked into it, the more I

found that she is here.

And where would this mystery girl of yours be residing?

If she was here, that is.

I don't know, but you sure as hell have a lot of houses.

Oh, there's a lot of those, all right.

All right, girl, that is enough out of you. Get your ass back inside.

I don't know what you want me to do about this. This really does not concern

does it?

Look it, Sheriff, this is your time.

All I'm looking for is a little law enforcement cooperation.

I don't see how that's going to be a problem for you.

You're only causing me a problem just by showing up here.

But I'm a lawman, just like you. And I want to see right done right.

That's what I thought you'd say.

Follow me back to the station.

You reading me, Jade?

Yes, Sheriff.

I'm here.

I'm coming back to the station. And I got that damn detective with me.

All right, Sheriff, just calm down.

I am calm.

I'll be there in about ten minutes. Look busy.

Okay, Jimmy, I'll see you when you get here.

Yes, I know, ma 'am, death can be a terrible thing.

You never expect it, and then when it comes, it's just a shame. It's a

shame.

I know.

All Roger ever tried to do was provide for his family.

So, I guess it's only fitting that we provide for him now.

And that he's gone.

Well, the burial plan that you've selected is a beautiful one.

Happens to be my favorite.

I think he'd be very proud of you, the way you handled things and held yourself

together. No, that's very nice of you to say.

Yes, ma 'am. Well, I guess that just about does it, then.

How will you be paying for this today, ma 'am?

Cash?

I don't have that much cash.

But Roger does have somebody on his credit card.

Well,

I guess that'll have to do, then.

Well, I don't have it on me, though. I'm going to get back to you, you know.

Yes, ma 'am, whatever course you have to take.

Because I really don't have a choice, do I?

I'm sorry, Mr. Holliday.

You know, my friends told me to be careful coming here.

They told me all kinds of wicked things about you, but they were wrong.

You really are a nice man.

Yes, I am.

Sweetheart, I'm home.

Did you miss me?

I've been working so hard all day, and I brought home a big surprise for

you.

Aren't you glad to see me?

Hey,

hey. Is that any way to treat your goddamn husband, huh?

After all I've done for you, I slave away on a dirty job site all day long

so you can have all of this.

And this is what I get, huh?

This is for you, bitch. You got one way out of here.

My way or Mama's way.

And I'm telling you right now, my way's gonna be a whole lot easier on you.

and I'd be of help in the Nashville investigation.

Well, it seems we had ourselves a little murder back there. The suspect just up

and left town, and the thing is, I keep running into a bunch of dead ends.

There seems to be a lot of assuming different identities and name -changing,

curious things like that.

And that led you here?

It led me to this town.

Exactly where in this town, I haven't quite figured out yet.

Well, obviously, it led you to my place.

It's the name, Mr. House.

The suspect is going by the name Danielle Hollister. And to be perfectly

with you, from everything I've gathered in this town, there's a lot of people

scared of you.

They say that your entire family is, well, downright mean.

Oh, Mr.

Dumont. Detective Durant.

The job of an undertaker is never taken lightly.

Some people don't like those of us that work with the dead.

Sometimes they think we're...

Crazy.

Yes, that's why we sometimes are cast in a bad light.

Doesn't necessarily mean that everyone in my profession is a killer, now does

it? Of course not. I understand that.

I sure as hell wouldn't want to do your job. I see too many dead people as it

is.

So the name Danielle Houser doesn't ring a bell?

She's a good -looking blonde -haired woman, probably early 30s?

No, it really doesn't.

Well, I guess we're done here.

Thank you for your time. I'm sure you had a lot of work to do.

I'll be on my way.

Well, you just let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

Anybody that knows me knows I'm a big supporter of the law.

Cousin Jimmy and I'll be in the sheriff.

Cousins, huh? I didn't know you two were related.

That's a distant cousin.

Huh, way off in the distance.

Way, way off.

Well, thanks again. You've been a big help.

Thank you very much.

Anything else I can do, just let me know. Okay. Thanks a lot.

You have a real nice day now. All right. Thank you.

Damn.

Now that girl is busy.

I'll be right with you.

I think

I got enough.

Well, it is so nice to have everyone together again.

Yeah, Mama. And Emily's here, too.

On second thought, that might not be such a good idea.

You know, Randall, Emily can have her good days and her bad days.

Now, who is your new girlfriend?

Mama.

Randall's girlfriend is his right hand.

Randall never had a girlfriend in his life.

Fuck you, Jonah. Don't you talk about me and my lady.

Hey, Emily, hand me your plate so I can put some of this beautiful food onto it.

Can I say something funny, Mama? Can I say something funny?

No. I don't want this beautiful night ruined by your stupid comments.

Yeah, that'd be a first.

Yeah, that'd be a first.

Here, Mama. I'll hold it for her.

Oh, that's so sweet of you, darling.

There you go, darling.

All right.

Well, now, it looks like our collection is finally starting to pay off.

I told you boys, once we got your sister back here, it'd be just like the old

days. So, bon appetit.

Oh, she's so pretty,

Randall. Yeah.

Prettier than only that.

Staking them out to prove one thing.

That girl's taken way too many guys in that house.

And I haven't seen one come out yet.

At least not through the front door.

She's on the up and up. And this badge I'm wearing don't mean jack shit.

Right there.

The Hollis mortuary is on wood lawn.

The railroad tracks run right behind it.

That bullshit sheriff's not going to send me out of this town empty -handed.

I'm coming for you, Hollis!

The hell's coming with me!

This is Rydell. Are you there?

Always, Sheriff.

Ain't it past your shift?

It's getting close.

Well, listen.

I got to make one more stop.

Somebody owes me something, and I got to collect it.

My wife's starting to call in her chips.

What do you want me to do?

Nothing. I'm just letting you know.

So if you want to go on home, go on home.

It's slow out here tonight. Just patch everything on through the answering

machine.

Okay, Chef. That's a big ten -four.

I'll see you in the morning.

That you will.

Rydell out.

You know, Emily, you're the only one I can talk to around here.

You're the only one that doesn't want me to do something bad for them.

Uh -huh.

You don't want me to do anything bad, do you?

No, she's right.

Well, I know I said Mom was right.

Well, I was wrong.

They're just killers.

And I'm better than them.

I live in the big city.

You'd like it there, Emily.

People are nice to you no matter how crazy you are.

Or ugly.

That's right.

No.

Who told you that?

You're not ugly, Emily.

You're just, you're just special.

Between you and me, I've had enough again.

And I'm gonna tell him, you watch.

And if I go,

well, you can go with me. Would you like that, Emily?

Uh -huh.

I hate this room.

I know you do, Emily.

I know you do.

Well, whose fault is that, Jonah? It sure hell ain't mine.

What are you saying? It's my fault?

Well, it ain't my fault.

Fuck you, Mama.

Don't you talk back to me, boy.

You ain't so big I can't fix your ass.

Oh, fuck this. Allison!

Allison, get in here!

What, Mama? What is it? What's wrong?

I want you to take a look at the casket.

Come on, take a look at the cat.

What, Mama? I don't see nothing.

That's because there's nothing fucking in there to see!

You were doing so good there, girl, but now nothing, absolutely nothing. What

the hell has gotten into you?

What, are you tired?

You tired of doing your job?

Yeah, I'm tired.

I'm tired of your old ass. You and Jonah.

And that stupid fucking Rendell.

I'm tired of going to dinner.

And making these guys like me.

Because it makes me like them back.

And then you kill them.

You're nothing but killers.

Nothing but fucking freaks.

You're all going to hell.

We're not going to hell. We're in hell.

And you stand right in the fire with us.

And you are not leaving this house.

I know a lot of things other people would love to know.

Damn, Jonah!

Y 'all fuckin' deaf?

Damn. Jimmy, what the fuck are you doing here?

What the fuck are you doing here? You're supposed to be back in Memphis.

Nurse Bill.

What the fuck, nurse?

Shut up.

What the fuck, Durant? Why did you come back?

I had to come back. I know they're in there. I'm going to get them. Better

what the fuck are you doing here?

I was thinking about it. What you said. It has to be him. And you know what? He

has a sister.

Matches that description perfectly.

So I'll come back to check it out.

We say we team up. Get ourselves a major collar.

Why am I supposed to trust you? You're family with these degenerates. I took an

oath to uphold the law. So family or not, these fuckers are going down.

Like I said, distant cousins.

So bring me up to speed. What's going on?

All right.

What I thought was I'd climb up this tree and go through that second room.

Sounds like too much fucking work to me. I passed the basement door back there.

You want to check it out?

Fine. Go ahead. I'll follow it.

Go on, I'll cover you.

Fucking nothing.

Yeah, over there.

What the hell? Damn!

Holy shit.

It's a little girl.

Well, a reasonable facsimile of one.

Hi, sweetheart.

I'm Detective Duran.

I'm a police officer. Are you okay?

I think she wants out. Well, what she wants and what she gets are two

things. Damn it, Jimmy. We can't just leave her in here.

Deformed or not.

Get her out of here.

Come on, honey. You're free.

Jimmy, I think she's shown us the way in. If you wouldn't go to read and

you would.

I guess I'm coming with him.

He's sure in hell cannot be related to me.

Can I help you?

Okay.

Come here.

Are you all right?

Are you all right?

I will. I will.

This is Officer Rydell. Can you move?

Okay, good.

Okay, you go to him.

Get her out of here. I'm going to go find the others.

Get her back to safety, but then get your ass back here. I'm going to need

as backup. I can do that. Be careful.

Oh, my.

Are you sure you can walk?

I don't think so. Maybe you better just lie down for a minute.

Seriously, you are beat to hell.

You got faces all messed up.

You got scars everywhere.

You know?

To be perfectly honest, you are basically beat to hell.

You ain't gonna get no fellas looking at you no more.

That's for sure.

You are downright fucked up.

Now, let me ask you a question.

You don't want to go through life being no double faggot now, do you?

Jimmy,

you son of a bitch!

What are you doing with my wife?

My wife, you bastard!

She loved me! She really fucking loved me!

the one you've been looking for.

What, Jonah, what?

You didn't have to kill him.

You could have let him take me away.

And let him live?

He would have taken us all down, Allison.

Think you would have just forgotten about it?

No!

I hate you, Jonah!

All my life, you just barely abused me!

Will you two shut the hell up? Can you help me?

we want.

We're free to live our lives now, Emily.

Are you all finished?

Did you get enough to eat?

Mm -hmm.

Good.

You've got a long way to go.

Going far?

I'd ask if you were going far.

How far do you have to go?

Oh, I don't know.

I guess I'll know when we get there.

You start.

You start your good.

Help to clear your head.

I suppose.

You two all finished?

Yes, we are.

All right, then. Here you go.

Come back and see it.

Here you are.

Let me get that for you.

Oh, no, I got it.

No, I... Let me get this.

Well, if you...

You just told my mama he's your baby boy.

Give him a song.

He's a good old boy.

Took her last breath and I saw him laughing.

It was the year of Chastain and I saw him laughing.
