Thank you.

Sorry.

What about, like, a shot for the pain?

How about, like, a shot of water?

Do you want to tell me what happened this time, Frankie?

Mum's so wasted.

She never remembers the horrible things she says to me.

How'd you hurt your knee?

Jay says I was causing a public nuisance.

And were you?

I jumped out at the lights and ran away.

So what do you want from me, Frankie?

Do you believe in spirits?

Yes, I do.

Do you know Mum's sister, Gracie Dine, the one that disappeared?

Yeah, I heard of the stories.

Everyone says I look just like her.

How does that make you feel?

Something really bad happened back then.

Something really evil.

What if it happens again?

What if it, like, comes to me too?

What's your usual means of contraception?

Condoms. Okay. And you didn't use a condom this time?

Clearly not.

All right.

How many hours is it since you had unprotected sex?

Six, seven, seven.

Can I take a medication, please?

Sure.

Hi. Hi, Joni.

How was the rest of your night?

Oh, fine.

Thanks.

Jane never tells me anything anymore, but I just bumped into the young

on the way in, and apparently they found something at the tip this morning.

Really? What?

Frankie Darling's backpack.

Oh, my God.

I just bumped into Anita. She said that they found Frankie's backpack.

For God's sake.

So it's true?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sadly, it doesn't look good.

Do you think that has anything to do with Peter Darling getting arrested?

Is there anything that doesn't get around this fucking town?

He hasn't been arrested. They brought him in for questioning.

Oh, yeah? That what?

Someone saw him arguing with Frankie the night she disappeared down the old

forest road.

Did they think that he did something?

Well, it's usually the man in the family, isn't it?

Yeah.

Well, because when I saw him last night, I mean, he didn't seem to be... Last

night?

Um, last night I ended up dropping Ruth home and Peter and I had a

drink.

Right. Okay.

Um... Right. Well, you'll be happy to hear he's getting released this morning.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You really should be careful around him, Janie. Yeah.

I've got to go. Jay.

Joanie. What did the police want?

They just had more questions.

About what?

Frankie.

Did you hurt her?

Because I'd really like to know who I just... Come on.

You've known me since we were kids. I know that you had an argument with

the night she disappeared.

I shouldn't have got involved.

What was it about? She was just bringing up stuff.

What stuff?

About the path. About the path.

What? Gracie?

Oh, come on, Peter.

The more secrets that you have, the guiltier you look.

After Gracie, me and Ruth were the only ones that got it.

Okay? Yeah, I understand that. I was left behind too.

We were always closer than cousins, maybe.

It wasn't healthy.

What do you mean?

Spending so much time together.

Well, it's normal that you'd want to support each other.

We tried to stop, okay?

Thank you, Father.

Did you tell the police?

No. Well, you should.

There's no point having secrets when you're trying to find the daughter.

That's just one.

For instance.

Where Pa and I come from in England, there are the Druids.

See, every culture has different rituals.

Like what else?

Well, you've seen smoking ceremonies at school, and it's just a way to...

Morning. Well, look what the cat dragged in.

Where have you been all night?

What, shouldn't I ask?

Sorry, I got caught up.

This is known as a walk of shame.

Mum. Do you have a good date, then?

Date? It wasn't a date. With who? It wasn't a date.

Where's Lulu?

She had another nightmare.

She woke up in the middle of the night screaming the house down.

Lu, your mummy's home.

Hey, baby.

We missed her in the middle of the night, didn't we, Lu? Okay, I can handle

from here. But these nightmares, the bedwetting. We'll just talk about it

I'm just saying I don't think being here is good for you or for the children. I

just need to tie up a few things, okay? That's what I need to do and then we're

going. I need to bite my head off.

Hello. Can I have it?

Yeah, of course.

Oh, look, this is moving.

And it changes colour with your body temperature. It's supposed to tell you

you're feeling.

You've been feeling a bit anxious, have you?

Mm. Oh, honey.

Nan told me that you had another nightmare.

You want to talk about it?

You draw it for me.

Ta -da.

Okay. Yeah.

Yeah.

Lots of branches.

Ah.

There's a tree.

That's good.

Ah, it's a fart.

He's a girl.

Gracie.

Well, why was the dream scary?

had dens in the hills and beer runs everywhere.

Mummy?

Mummy, can I?

Hi, Michael.

Yes.

Samantha? Yeah, we need another file then.

Sorry.

Jay?

Hi,

Samantha. What are you doing? Jay sent me. Katie wants back.

Zach's not answering. She says she'll only talk to Zach.

Okay.

Well, I hope he picks up.

Joanie, wait.

She couldn't get out of bed this morning.

Who's there? Hey, Caitlin, it's me. It's Joanie.

Where's Zach?

Zach's not picking up, so I can talk to you about what's going on.

He's here.

Who's here?

He won't leave me alone.

Caitlin, what are you seeing?

Caitlin, what are you seeing?

No!

Hello?

What's going on?

Hi, everybody.

Hi.

Look, I understand

how worried you

all are.

I can offer my perspective from my work with kids, but I think we're really

lucky to have Joni's expertise as a child psychologist.

Thank you.

So I hope that I can reassure you a bit.

I think what's going on here is a really normal response.

The trauma, the trauma of a friend going missing and the trauma of another

girl's body being found. It's big stuff.

But this is not unprecedented. There have been cases like this all around the

world. It's sometimes called collective psychosis.

For the kids, they're not making this up. It feels very real to them.

even though there isn't any physical illness.

They're not sick.

What we have found to work is we have to keep the kids apart.

So that's no phones.

And I know that sounds harsh, but truly... Look, I agree with Joni. You

this is a really troubling situation for our kids.

But we can help them, yeah? And let me just say this to further reassure you.

These evil spirits that the kids have seen, well, not to be trifled with and

to be feared either.

Jesus Christ not only unmasked the voices of evil, but he humiliated them.

Whether you're a believer or not, the key thing is this.

Let's support our kids.

Let's sit with them. Let's listen to them.

Just support.

Authority and faith.

Yeah?

Okay.

Look, please feel free to stay for the evening service.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thanks, guys.

See you later.

Are you aware of what you're doing?

What am I doing?

Well, you know how powerful suggestion can be, especially with kids.

I'm taking it just as seriously, guided by the Bible. So you seriously think

that this town is possessed by evil spirits?

I believe in a transcendent spirit world, uncontrollable forces that we

fully know. A kid is missing.

And that's what you believe.

What do you believe?

I mean, like, after everything that has happened, where do you find solace and

strength?

Well, I believe in rational thought. I believe in things that can be proven

science and logic, not theological speculation.

This must be very triggering for you.

I'm fine.

Thank you for concern.

As I light these candles, please protect me from any malevolent spirits that

would wish me harm.

And evil forces, seen or unseen.

Gracie, darling.

Gracie, darling.

Gracie darling, can we play?

Gracie, are you there?

Gracie, give me a sign.

Mina, what are you doing?

Are you stupid?

Stop it.

Stop.

What harm is there if it's all bullshit? Make sure you're dead inside.

Oh, you think spirits might be real after all? Mina. You're such a

I'll get inside right now.

What is going on? Oh, this is your fault. Look at what you've done. You've

encouraged her with all your terrorist shit. Don't blame Nan.

No, it's all right, Mina. She can blame me if she likes.

Thank you, yeah.

I know you were doing all this stuff with Gracie.

It wasn't Nan. The whole town knows. Come on, let's go and watch another

of our show, shall we?

Knock,

knock.

You got another one of those?

You know where I keep them.

What's your relationship with Peter, darling?

They're going to jail.

Right.

Can you believe that he and Ruth were fucking?

Well, I looked it up. It's not actually illegal.

Serious?

Is this what you came to talk to me about?

I wanted your opinion.

They found Frankie's phone in a backpack.

Mm -hmm.

Okay.

Okay. Yeah, okay.

I'm the best one. Remember what you have to ask? Yep. Okay.

Gracie doll, Gracie doll, Gracie doll, can we play?

Gracie doll, Gracie...

Can I ask you some questions?

Is Noah going to ask me to the desk?

She wanted me to ask you something.

Gracie.

What happened the night you died?

What's happening?

Gracie.

Amen.

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

Hello?

Why is it okay for you to have done all that stuff, but I can't?

System of hindsight, I guess. I don't know. I'm sorry.

Mina, what were you trying to do?

I just wanted to find out if all that stuff's real.

Like the game and all that.

By playing Gracie Darling?

Yeah.

With Caitlin faking it out in the bush?

What about the others?

the ringleader.

Yeah. She was selling the drugs to her.

Does everyone do what she says?

Yeah.

Everyone's scared of her.

Except Frankie. They weren't amazed.

Sorry. Now they don't wake you up?

And on nights this late. Shh, shh, shh. I just, um, I just thought I'd check in

with Caitlin, have a bit of a follow -up chat.

Well, she's resting too.

Oh, yeah, that's the idea.

Figured we'd go for a two -pronged approach.

Thanks.

Oh,

my God, did you hear about Ruth and Peter?

Mom! Hi, Caitlin.

Oh.

Oh.

Come here, puppy.

Thanks, Matt. We won't be long.

Is that coming?

Yeah.

I thought we could have a little chat while we wait.

Can you tell me again what's been happening?

I feel really weak.

My legs ache.

I'm freezing, but then I'm hot.

Last night, I woke up in the middle of the night and he was in my room.

He came closer and closer, but I couldn't move.

Have you ever heard of sleep paralysis?

Sometimes when the mind is awake, the body is still asleep. This wasn't that.

This was Gracie's killer.

He wants to hurt me.

I used to have some of these when I was your age.

Perfect place for hiding my stash.

Does your mum know that you deal drugs?

Because I've got a whole bunch of kids telling me that you were the one doling

out MDMA right before everyone got possessed.

And, you know, they'll test the drugs.

And if they cause some kind of psychosis that made all your friends sick...

Please don't tell mum.

Did you really see an evil spirit?

Now,

I thought they were supposed to have confiscated your phones.

I know where Mum hides it.

Did you see a spirit in this room, Caitlin?

No.

Okay.

So, tell me what happened in the forest.

Rafi told us how Frankie got possessed.

So you were... you were faking it?

I did feel something.

And what about the others?

I don't know what trip they're on.

Why?

I want Zach to pray over me.

Zach?

Frankie was his favorite.

They always had private sessions in his office.

I was gruffy about it.

I will.

Hi.

Sorry.

Is Rafi here?

No, not yet.

Are you a friend?

Yeah. I'm Zach.

I'm the group leader.

Meena.

Joanie's daughter.

Yeah.

Welcome.

It's great to have you in your face.

Hey, guys.

I hope we're keeping it kind.

So, how are you doing?

It's been tough on you kids?

Yeah, Mum dragged us up here and she's barely looked at us since.

I mean, all she cares about is a dead friend.

Well, look, you're welcome to join us if you like.

Yeah? Yeah. Hey,

everybody, this is Mina.

Excuse me.

Hey, did you talk to her?

No, no, she didn't reply and they're not home. You know, I don't know if this is

cool. Jay, we're talking about a potential sexual predator.

Right, what am I looking for?

Um, teenage girls, they write about this stuff, okay, trust me. Does she have a

diary, a journal?

Uh, what, a real one? I don't fucking know, um... Laptop?

Yeah, yeah, yes.

Internet creeps. Don't tell her I know.

Yep. All right, do a search for Zach.

Nothing.

Look in downloads.

Mina and her friends, they use AirDrop.

Did you find something?

Maybe. What is it? Photos, photos, photos with notes on them.

From Frankie?

Yeah, yeah, I think so.

Zed was there for me.

He wiped the tears from my cheeks.

I kissed him. He kissed me back.

Thunder and lightning. Jesus gave down.

Zed laid me down and fucked me on the desk.

Oh, Mina.

Go to heck.

Yeah.

So I hope you found it helpful being in a supportive space.

It was nice.

Thanks. Yeah, good.

Look, I just want you to know that...

Your concerns are valid.

Actually, I do have a few questions, if you've got time.

Yeah, of course.

Yeah? Why don't you come downstairs? I'll put the cradle on.

Okay. Yeah.

I'm going to go down and talk to him.

No, no.

No, Joni, you can't... This isn't actually evidence. You can't just... Why

I? Why can't I? I'm not the police. It's a friendly visit.

You tip him off.

You've struck the course of justice. Oh, come on.

Justice? You said yourself they're not even looking at him. There's pros.

Fuck.

What are you doing here, Dad?

You're not going to get that?

You know, nothing would piss my mum off more than me turning religious.

I mean, not the most auspicious way to start a relationship with God.

Black, green or chai?

Chai.

Why are you the only adult that believes us?

What do you mean exactly?

There's something bad here.

We've got Frankie and the others, but...

No one believes us.

You know, if there's anything that I've learned, don't jump to conclusions too

quickly.

You know, when I was younger, I was a lot more reckless.

But now, I let the scriptures guide me.

So, how are you reckless when you're young?

Hi, it's Mina.

Call me up right now. You'll leave me a message. Check me.

Hey, Megan.

I want to make sure that you're okay.

Call me, please.

Mina. Tony.

Hey, Mum.

What are you doing here?

Getting close to Jennifer. Go wait upstairs.

Mum, chill. You heard me, Mina. Go wait upstairs.

Okay, she didn't tell you. What the fuck do you think you're doing?

Mina came to me for guidance. Do you make a habit of being alone with young

girls?

I can... I'm available to anyone who seeks my counsel. Because I just had a

long chat with Caitlin, and she admitted she'd been faking it all. You know, the

reason that she gave me was to get your attention.

Jealous of your relationship with Frankie.

And she implied that you and Frankie have been sexually intimate.

What? No, that... You honestly think that I've... We found notes

written by Frankie.

Suggestive notes, details.

Look. I'm a protector, Joni, OK? I'm a servant of God. Great defence.

I've never encouraged any... Why do you have to leave your hometown?

To act with a minor.

Yeah. I was a minor too. It wasn't illegal. We were both underage.

Her parents didn't like me, so a few days after I turned 18, they called the

cops.

You know, I thought you of all people would know how dangerous gossip can be.

You okay?

Have you totally lost it?

We were just talking.

I'm sorry. No, Zach was actually there for me.

Mom?
