[ominous music]

[Hope] You think something’s actually going on?

[Jeremiah] No, someone probably just forgot to lock a door.

Want me to come with you?

We ain’t paying Sophie an extra hour.

Plus I’ll have to walk the grounds and double check everything.

Dumb.

They better add this to your overtime.

[scoffs] Oh, they will.

Alright, I’ll see you in an hour.

Yep. Love you. Love you.

[Sophie] You guys had a nice date?

Of course. Thank you.

What did you girls do?

[Candace] She studied for like an hour. And then she made me watch TV.

And then we played in the backyard--

She made you watch TV?

That’s one way to put it. I have finals in two days, I told her that.

Does that mean you need to get home early?

No, I’m done.

Candace and I were in the middle of an intense game of monopoly.

And I’m winning.

But whatever works. I can go home in the morning if it’s easier.

Kay. Well, I do need to log in and get some work done.

Okay. [Hope] But, if you need to go home after, one of us can take you.

[Hope] Or…

We can play another round.

As long as Daddy doesn’t play. He cheats way too much.

Why, cause he doesn’t let you win?

You’re not even letting me win.

[gentle, pensive music]

[doorknob clatter]

[wood creaking]

[suspenseful music]

[glass door sliding]

[Hope] There’s--there's cash. There--there's jewelry.

Just take whatever you want and leave.

[Adrian] Anyone else in the house with you?

No. [Tucker] Don’t lie to us.

[Hope] There’s no one else.

[Adrian] There better not be.

Bring her in the next room. [Tucker] Don’t try anything.

I’ll take those, too.

Please, there’s plenty in the safe, you--you don’t need these.

I want them.

[Adrian] Give me the rings.

[somber music]

[Adrian] Here’s what’s going to happen.

[Adrian] You are going to stay down here with Tucker. And if you cooperate…

Once we’re done. We’ll leave.

Cooperate?

You know what he means.

Please you can take whatever you want, just don’t--

Shut up. And put your hands behind your back.

[tense music]

[Hope struggling]

[Hope grunts in pain]

Okay, come on.

[suspenseful, emotional music]

I’m going to text the police so we don’t make too much noise.

We have to help her. They’re hurting her.

It’s going to be okay. Listen, just…

Shut it out and pray. Okay? Here.

[pop music playing through band]

[tense music]

[Adrian] That was stupid.

Don't.

Take a breath. [Tucker] She broke my nose.

I said take a breath.

[exhales]

You’re not even bleeding, you big baby.

[tense, emotional music]

[breathing]

[phone vibrates]

[sighs]

[door knob movement]

[Adrian] Why is this door locked?!

[Adrian] Did you lie to us?

[door hit]

[door hit louder]

[door knocked open]

[suspenseful music swells]

[gunshots]

[Jeremiah] You okay?

[Hope] Check the girls. Go!

[Adrian] Ah, crap.

[window movement]

[music fades out, footsteps]

[Jeremiah] Girls?

In here.

[emotional music] [Jeremiah] Sophie?

[Candace] Daddy!

Candace.

[Sophie] I’m okay. He went out the window. Uh. Kayla said the police were coming.

Is Mommy going to be okay?

Yes.

[window unlatches]

Jer, let the police handle it.

[window opens]

We need you here. Please?

[Sophie] Jeremiah.

[heartbeat, shallow breathing]

[demonic, raspy inhale. Heartbeat stops]

[tribal, percussive music]

If Melissa’s not busy I want to apologize.

You apologized on the phone. And
Melissa told you then it wasn’t necessary.

Well, I ought to say something.

You can’t. They won’t be
home for another two hours.

Melissa got called in for work, but
she’ll be back for her lunch break.

Were you going to tell me
that before I left you here alone?

I just found out five minutes ago.

And no, because I knew you wouldn’t want to leave.

That’s correct. Or I’d
take you back home and let

her pick you up from there on her lunch break.

I can’t. They’re expecting a
package someone has to sign for.

[scoffs] What?

You serious?

[emotional music]

Sophie, someone should be here for you.

Somebody was.

[Sophie] All of you. Last night. And um...

[Sophie] This morning.

Otherwise I don’t think I would have
made it through the night. Mentally.

But um…

I have to be home now.

Your family needs you.

You are family to us.

I wish I was.

I love you. Tell Candace
and Hope I said that, too.

I will.

[Jeremiah] And you better
check in later otherwise

we’re all going to drive right back over here.

Okay.

Love you, too.

[emotional music continues]

[emotional music fades out]

[Kayla] They found him.

[Kayla] He ran in front of
a car in Lacey. Hit and run.

He’s dead.

[Kayla] They found your rings
on him. They weren’t damaged.

[somber ambient music]

I’m sorry, Hope.

[Denny] Morning.

Morning.

How’s everyone doing?

Uh.

About as well as can be expected.

[Jeremiah] But we’re grateful.
It could’ve been a lot worse.

What made you turn around?

Couldn’t find the key to the school.

Thought for sure I left it hanging up.

Well, did you? [Jeremiah] No.

When I took Sophie home this
morning I checked the keychain…

[Jeremiah] And… it was right there.

Must’ve been too dark last night.

Hm. Must’ve been.

So Sophie’s parents waited until now to see her?

[somber music] Uh...
she wanted to stay with us.

And they were okay with that?

Well, they’re…

Interesting people.

Guess so.

Well, I’m glad everything’s okay.

[Denny] Glad everyone’s okay, um…

This kind of thing just…well.

It doesn’t happen around here.

No, it doesn’t.

Take it easy.

[doorbell]

Still sick?

Thank you guys for coming.

We missed you. And...

We were worried.

Just so you guys know, I…

[Sophie] I’ve been sick to my stomach.

Ever since it happened so…

It wasn’t a total lie.

We know.

I just wanted to pretend like it never happened.

[Sophie] So...

I’ve been avoiding it. And you guys.

And I’m sorry.

It’s okay. And if you
need more time, it’s fine.

But, uh… we have to ask you something.

[Jeremiah] We’ve been discussing it for a

while. We spoke to John
and Melissa last week.

[Jeremiah] They were
planning to move you out.

To where?

Uh, they had a few things
in mind. It’s not important.

What is, is that we…

We want you to... come stay with us.

Are you serious?

Yeah.

We know that things…

…have been hard around
here for… for a while.

[Hope] We love you. Candace loves you.

You already spend so much
time at our house already, so...

[Hope] Why not make it official?

What’s the catch?

As far as we’re concerned
you’ve… never had real parents.

A lot of guardians.

[Jeremiah] But… you deserve
better than that. And…

[Jeremiah] We want to give it to you.

So you’re more than welcome to just
come stay with us as a family friend.

[Jeremiah] But uh...

We’d like to adopt you.

[emotional music]

You can take time to think.

Uh. What’s there to think about?

[Sophie] Are you serious?

[uplifting, emotional music]

[Jeremiah] Morning.

Morning.

You know, most kids sneak out at night.

You’re up early.

[Jeremiah] Yeah, I woke up an hour
ago and couldn’t get back to sleep.

You taking a walk?

Yeah, uh. I have pepper spray
on me. The knife you gave me.

Could take the gun, too.

Well, when you’re old enough to
concealed carry, we’ll talk about that.

I’ll be back before you leave for work.

Okay. See ya. See you.

[raspy inhale]

[suspenseful music]

[raspy inhale]

[suspenseful music fades out]

[somber, mysterious music]

[gasps]

Hey, you okay?

[Sophie] Dude. You good?

[somber, eerie music]

[Dylan] Yeah, I just…

Stopped to rest for a minute.

[Dylan] I’m good.

Okay. Sorry to bother you. I just
wanted to make sure you were… alive.

I will be. Till my dad
gets his hands on me.

Do you need help?

[Dylan] No.

You get what you deserve
and I’ve made some…

Bad choices.

Uh, who hasn’t?

I’ve learned it’s what you do after
those choices that really matters.

Maybe for some people.

[Dylan] Too late for me.

But I appreciate your optimism.

Sophie?

That’s your name?

How did you know?

[coughing]

Just heard it in my head. I’m Dylan.

Uh huh. Okay.

You take care of yourself, Dylan. And um...

I hope things get better for you.

[somber, eerie music fades out]

[Santina] What’s it
like having a sister now?

It’s cool, I guess. I really like
Sophie, she’s my best friend.

Second best friend.

[Santina] Who’s first. Mom? Or dad?

Mackenzie. She’s in my class at school.

Do you have any concerns?

No.

[Santina] What about the fact
that Sophie will be the oldest now?

Does that bother you at all?

Not really. She’s in charge
when she babysits, anyways. So...

Kind of the same.

[Santina] But babysitting and being
here all the time are very different.

I know. My parents
talked to me about it a lot.

[Candace] And I care more about
Sophie than I do being the oldest.

[somber, emotional music]

Candace says you’re her best friend.

Second best friend. Kenzie’s first.

What’s your relationship
like with Jeremiah and Hope?

Pretty good.

Has it always been like that?

Yeah. They were always nice, and…

Real.

Sometimes they’d come home
and - and Candace would be in bed.

And we’d talk. Watch movies.

[Sophie] Play games.

Uh, sometimes I’d come by the house when

Candace wasn’t here to…
help out. And hang out.

Uh, yeah.

Okay, the next one’s tough.

Bring it.

[Santina] You’ve had a few
foster parents in the past.

You were with the Castellis since you were ten.

And in your own words, here…

You’ve been let down time and time again.

[Santina] By every parental
figure that’s been in your life.

So, what makes you think the
Tatums will be any different?

When I was just their babysitter.

And they could have hired anyone else, any time.

They stuck by me. Even when I
came over in a mood because of…

Things going on at home, uh...

You know, they…

They set boundaries, they didn’t let
me get away with being a brat but...

They were gentle. And…

Even before adoption came up…

They were the closest thing
to real parents I’ve ever had.

So it’s already been different.

[Santina] Thank you so much
for having me in your home.

It’s been a pleasure.

Of course. Thank you.

Um. Is there anything that we should
know? Anything we should be working on?

Hm. No, not really.

But since you’re adopting a
teenager with… quite the history…

There will be challenges that come with.

[Santina] But you’re both well aware
and prepared as far as I can tell.

And Candace is, too. As much
as she can be for that age, so...

My best advice would be, just stay the course.

Everyone back at the office is rooting for

you guys. We think
it’s a really cool story.

Thank you, we appreciate it.

Of course. See you in two weeks.

[Sophie] So…

Sounds like they’re going to let you keep me?

[emotional music]

What’s this guy doing? Hm?

He added an extra shift to his
prayer walk. Is that a problem?

I didn’t say it was.

[Hope] And he’s a widower with no kids.

[Hope] Imagine if something happened
to me and the girls weren’t around.

Yeah, if something happened to you…

I’d place both of them for
adoption and move to Malibu.

Out.

That was totally in.
And a goal. Six to three.

You think you don’t have to let
me win, anymore? It’s like that?

[laughs]

[mellow, ambient music]

We making a habit out of this?

Guess so? Morning.

Morning.

I’m going to lock this just in case.

Okay.

Well, you never know.

No, I guess you don’t. You weirdo.

Weirdo?

Go kick rocks. Or whatever
you old people say.

[laughs] Old people?

Alright, get out my house.

[laughs]

Good morning, Mr. Atlas.

Morning, Sophie. You out for a
walk or you headed somewhere?

Just walking.

Hope told me you do a prayer walk
or something around the neighborhood.

Every morning for 12 years.

[Denny] Aside from the couple
months after my surgery.

Then I added evenings, too.

Should be pretty safe around here then, right?

Should be.

[Denny] But…

I’d still be careful going
out in the woods this early.

Do you mean um… because of… what happened?

Not necessarily. Uh. I mean.

That was just a symptom I think.

[Denny] Things have been
strange around here, since…

Your parents can tell you
that story. Just be careful.

I will.

[somber, eerie music]

Hey, uh… Dylan?

Have you even left that spot, dude?

[laughs]

You okay?

Yeah.

Yeah, I don’t know, just… hm.
Maybe just need to eat something.

I don’t feel great.

[sliding door opens and closes]

We think it’s Dylan Harris.

[Kayla] His mom tried to report him missing

two days ago. She
hasn’t identified him yet.

But the tattoo on his right forearm is a match.

Of course that doesn’t leave this room until...

Oh, of course.

You said you spoke to him yesterday morning?

Yeah, he said his name was Dylan.

What is it, Kayla?

In the medical examiner’s opinion,
Dylan has been dead for at least two days.

More like three to four.

That’s impossible.

If you spoke to him, yes, I agree.

What do you mean, if? You think I made it
up? How else would I have known his name?

[Hope] That’s not what she’s
saying, Sophie. Calm down.

[Kayla] I’m just trying to make
sense of everything. No offense meant.

Any idea how he died yet?

So far it looks like either natural
causes or possibly an overdose.

[Kayla] He had some minor injuries but
they could’ve come from being in the woods.

Nothing fatal. We’ll know in a couple
days once the autopsy results are in.

What about the claw marks on the tree?

Bear. Maybe?

But it had nothing to do with his death.

[ominous, suspenseful music]

We’ve grilled you enough. I don’t think

they’ll have any more questions for you, but...

If that changes I’ll give you a heads up.

Thank you. You want a
cup of coffee or anything?

I do. But I have to be there when
Dylan’s parents come to ID him.

Lucky me. Right?

Stay strong.

[sliding door opens and closes]

You okay?

I think I’m going to go lay down.

Okay.

[computer ringing]

You know we have stylists for that, right?

[Jessica] Yeah, she was just in here.

I’m just making some… improvements.

I think you should leave it to the experts.

I think you should back off.

Alright, well when you get ripped in
the comments later, don’t blame me.

Oh, speaking of comments.
I mentioned you yesterday--

-and the top 20 were asking when
you’re going to come back on air.

[Jessica] They know that
Candace is almost ten now.

And that you’re not homeschooling her, anymore.

Honestly, we thought about it, but…

We’re adopting a teenager, now.

[Hope] And research takes enough time.

Aren’t teens… independent?

[laughs] Very. But…

Look, you don’t have to explain.
I know what she’s been through.

And… I’m really proud of you.

And Jeremiah.

[Jessica] It’s very noble.

Thank you.

Oh, I had Oakfield send over the
documents from the FOIA requests.

Anything juicy? Mostly just redactions,
but Roger said he’ll work on that.

[Jessica] Figures. Alright.

[Jessica] You’re looking really cold. Maybe
you should get a blankie or something?

The heat’s probably just off again.

How many times are you going to unplug and plug

that thing back in before you just get a new one?

Break a leg on the show today.

[Hope] Please? Go to hell.

[laughs] I’ll see you there. From heaven.

[Hope] You skank.

[ambient, suspenseful music]

[low growl]

[grunts in pain]

[breathing heavy]

What the heck?

[deep, raspy inhale]

[grunting in pain]

Hope.

[grunting]

Sophie.

S - Sophie.

[gasping, breathing heavily]

[eerie, suspenseful music]

[loud, heavy footsteps]

Please. Help.

[panicked breathing] Please. Please help.

Please. [Jeremiah] Sophie?

Hey, you seen Hope?
What’s wrong with you?

Is she downstairs?

Daddy, can you actually call
someone to fix this furnace?

It’s so stupid. I mean,
like, it’s two degrees in here.

[Candace] Like, for real. We have to
go down there every other week, so…

[Candace] Fix it!

You okay?

Uh. I think I had a…

A nightmare.

Was it about our finances?

[Candace] Mommy? Mommy!

[Candace] Daddy!

[somber, eerie music]

Avery Reedus?

[Avery] Yes?

You knew Dylan Harris?

Um… yeah.

[Avery] I heard about
what happened to him. It’s…

It’s a shame.

Can I talk to you for a second?

Yeah, sure. Come in.

[Avery] Any idea how he died yet?

Autopsies can take a few days.

Were you two close?

We were cool. We hung
out like once in a while.

We weren’t like best friends, or anything.

No?

He called you nine times last Wednesday night.

You never answered.

Well like I said. We
weren’t like ‘besties’.

Ya know, I was… busy.

Did he leave any voicemails or any texts?

[Kayla] Anything that seemed odd?

No.

He didn’t leave any voicemails?

Not about anything weird, no.

Can I see your phone?

Is that a lawful command I
have to comply with or a request?

Simple request.

It’s kind of invasion of privacy. I
don’t feel comfortable with that, sorry.

Okay. That’s fine.

Thanks for your time.

[quirky, mysterious music]

Wait, you said the autopsies weren’t in yet.

I said they can take a few days.

Was he… murdered, or anything?

Let’s hope not.

Jer. Jer.

Hey.

How you feeling?

A little dizzy.

Very confused.

[Jeremiah] You’ve been
in and out for a while.

How much do you remember?

Um.

My stomach was bothering me.

I… didn’t think anything of it.

[Hope] And then when I went to check the
furnace it felt like I was getting stabbed.

I must’ve passed out, I guess.

Your appendix ruptured.

[Jeremiah] They said it happened
overnight, probably. Then it got infected.

They, uh… they caught
it before it got too bad.

But, uh…

It was scary for a little while.

I’m sorry.

It’s okay.

[emotional music]

[Candace] You sure you’re feeling okay?

[Hope] I’m fine.

Sophie, how are you? How’s the house?

I’m okay. Uh, we have a little cleaning
to do but uh… everything’s good.

[Hope] Thank you.

Oh, speaking of the house
- someone wants to buy it.

Uh, they left a thingie on the door.

Well, when God gives you a sign.

Really?

No. Stop it.

We can’t move in the middle of the home study.

Whatever.

Mommy, can we come just to say hello?

No, I’m sorry, baby.

[Hope] But I’ll be home tomorrow, okay?

What about Daddy? [Sophie]
He’s staying with your mom.

[Sophie] She needs him. You have me.

[Hope] Thank you, Sophie. Alright,
we got to go. I love you lots, girls.

Love you, too. Love you.

That house better not be a
dang mess. A little cleaning?

It’s probably burnt down. [laughs]

Movie? [Candace] Can
we camp in the backyard?

Candace, you’re going to fall
asleep half an hour into the movie.

No, I won’t. Please? Please?!

Okay. Yes.

[gentle, uplifting music]

[Sophie] We’re all set, Candace.

Are you freakin kidding me?

[Sophie scoffs, walks off]

[eerie, child-like music]

[Young Sophie] Mom?!

[Young Sophie] Look, I don’t know
where to go. I’m sorry about the wallet.

Please, mom?

[large wings flap]

[ambient suspenseful music]

[gasps]

What the hell?

It’s freezing over here. Can you go
downstairs and check the furnace?

Just get another blanket, I’m not going downstairs.

All you have to do is unplug and plug it back in.

Babysitter Sophie would do
that. Big sister Sophie would not.

What if we die of hyperthermia?

You watch too much TV. Just go lay down.

[phone vibrating]

What?

Denny.

[Denny] Hey. Are you guys
camping out in the yard?

Uh.

We were going to, I - I just
didn’t feel like taking the tent down.

[Denny] Oh. Uh, okay.

You called at midnight to ask about the tent?

[Denny] It - it’s a bit cold out and…

[Denny] I just wanted to
make sure you guys were okay.

We’re good, although we probably
should’ve slept outside. It's...

Probably warmer.

[Denny] Jeremiah told me
the furnace has been acting up.

Yep. [Denny] You should
probably check on that.

Thanks.

Goodnight, Denny.

Sir?

[Denny] Uh… yeah, just, uh...

[Denny] It’s probably
going to get colder so…

[Denny] Maybe check on that furnace.

[click]

Weird.

Fine.

[industrial ambient music]

[furnace hissing]

Seriously?

[high pitched noises from furnace]

[raspy inhale]

[suspenseful music]

[gasps, heavy breathing]

[inhales deeply]

[furnace noises continue]

[Candace] Do we have to? It’s
going to be even colder outside.

Not necessarily. Our
body heat will be trapped

in the tent. We’ll warm up even faster.

Here. Go. I’ll be-Why
are you in such a rush?

[Sophie] Hey Kayla, uh, Jeremiah
said to call you if anything came up.

I think there might be a gas leak in
the furnace. It’s making weird noises.

And there’s uh… a smell. In the basement.

Uh, Candace and I got out of the house, so we’re fine.

We don’t have any symptoms but, uh…
I didn’t know if I should call you or 911.

[Kayla] I’ll be right there and I’ll call
for someone to check the house, okay?

[Sophie] Thank you.

[ambient, somber music]

[Tim] Can I shake your hand?

Uh, sure.

Your parents ought to give
you whatever you want for life.

She was right?

Yeah. The levels are already coming down.

But the furnace was definitely
leaking carbon monoxide.

It’s… only five, six years old
and they have two detectors.

The batteries were dead.
I replaced them, but…

Just let your friends know to stay on top of that.

Yeah. Will do.

Give it another two hours, then
you should be able to reenter.

Unless you have somewhere else to go?

I could take you guys to my place.

Oh no, we’re camping out
here. Um… if that’s safe?

[Tim] Perfectly.

You opened up the windows.
You unplugged the furnace.

You set up camp a good distance
away. You did everything right.

Try to get some rest while you
can. Have a good night, ladies.

I better call Jeremiah.

He’s stressed enough at the hospital.
Um, I can tell him in the morning.

Look, it’s already taken care of, right?

Well…

[Kayla] Okay, I can stick around
the area until it’s time to go back in.

Thank you.

I’ll be right back.

[pensive music]

Kayla told me what happened—are you okay?

She did not have to bother you at
the hospital. I took care of everything.

I know.

I called her to tell her Hope’s getting discharged

at 1 and she only brought it up after that.

It could’ve been a lot worse last night.

So… thank you. And I’m sorry.

For what?

Putting you in that position.

I thought for sure I changed
the batteries not that long ago.

Well, the low battery alarm usually
chirps for weeks before it dies.

I didn’t hear anything.

Me either.

But, I am black. And apparently…

[Jeremiah] We hear that thing like
ten percent of the time it goes off.

I didn’t hear anything. Hope didn’t.

Well, we’re family so you’re
going to start getting all the traits.

You’re going to be late to everything soon.

[Jeremiah] Liking chicken. Dude.

[Sophie] There was definitely no warning.

[pensive music]

Something weird happened.

But, um… we’re safe.

That’s all that matters, right?

Right.

Would you and Hope have gone to Malibu, too?

You know that’s not funny, right?

You need to do something else soon.

[Sophie] If your dad wakes
up and finds out you were

playing games this whole
time he’s going to be pissed.

I know, but what else is there to do?

Plenty.

What is that stuff?

I kept things, from…

[Sophie] Everywhere I lived.

I don’t know why.

To keep track. Maybe.

Well, nothing from here’s
ever going in that bag. Right?

No. This is my last stop.

What’s with the comic?

Uh, we stayed in a big parking lot.

[Sophie] Uh… my mom
and I. Close to a church.

A lady at the church gave us these.

And food.

[floor creaking]

It’s time to go get your mom from
the hospital. Either of you want to come?

I do.

I’m going to tidy up. Make
sure everything’s ready for her.

Thanks, Sophie.

[emotional music]

It’s just going to take a little while
for the drugs to wear off, but she’s fine.

[childlike, eerie music]

[Sheila] You know the drill.
All the way up and don’t around.

I mean it, Sophie.

[Sheila] If I see anything more
than the back of your stupid head.

Okay.

[childlike, pensive music]

[large wings flapping]

[eerie, suspenseful music]

[demonic breathing]

[Sophie] When I told my mom what I saw.

[Sophie] She said I must’ve
fallen and hit my head.

Maybe I did.

The police came and now we have
to move to the other side of town.

So I couldn’t go back to look if I wanted to.

That also means I can’t go back to church.

[doorbell]

[Riley] Hi, I’m Riley Betts. I’m a realtor.

Are Mr. and Mrs. Tatum here?

Oh. There’s a lot going on right now.

How can I help you?

I have a client interested in buying this house.

We’ve been trying to get ahold of you for a while.

Okay. Just a minute.

That is, uh… a very generous offer.

Well, it’s a beautiful house.

And the ten acres of woods you have
back there are a strong selling point.

Well, he’s not planning to cut it all down and build-

-like, a warehouse or something. Is he?

I don’t want to do my neighbors dirty like that.

Neither would he. He’s from around here.

He doesn’t have any major plans as far as I know.

Good.

Uh…

I’m sorry I have to get to the pharmacy.

Okay, no problem.

But, I’ll walk the property line
later. I’ll talk to everyone here, and…

-get back to you in a few days.

[Jeremiah] Um. I can’t promise
we’re actually going to sell, but…

You never know.

Well, I appreciate your time.

And please give my best to
your wife for a quick recovery.

Thank you.

By the way, did you already pay for a new furnace?

Unfortunately, yes.

Well, anything else that comes up
won’t be counted against the price.

[Riley] He really wants this
place. Just so you know.

I’ll keep that in mind.

[gentle music] We’re moving?

Probably not. I just
wanted to hear her out.

I need to go to the pharmacy.

Can I come? Mr. Softy’s is right next door.

Who said anything about ice cream?

It is a special occasion and I’d
say we’ve earned it this week.

Especially me.

[laughs]

Alright.

Uh, would you mind sticking around to
make sure Hope’s okay if she gets up?

[Jeremiah] Just text me your order.

I know what she wants. Let’s go.

[mellow, pensive music]

Afternoon.

Hope’s okay?

Yeah, she’s resting.

Good.

I heard you played the hero last night.

[laughs] I wouldn’t have even
gone downstairs if you didn’t…

…randomly call at 1 am.

So were you really that worried
about us being cold in the tent?

[Sophie] How did you even see our yard?

I woke up with a feeling around 11:30.

Couldn’t get back to sleep, so…

[Denny] I took a walk out in the
woods and that’s when I saw the tent.

That’s it?

There was something in the woods.

This was the… third time I had seen it.

[Denny] The first time… a few months ago.

On the way back home from
the hospital out by the highway.

I made the mistake of telling everyone about it.

Then again, I saw it outside your house.

[Denny] And I made the mistake
of not telling anyone about it.

The next day I heard about the break in.

Is this it?

[somber, suspenseful music]

It was in the woods. In Mt
Ephraim where I used to live.

[Sophie] Do you think it’s following me?

Is that why all those things are
happening to the Tatums? Because of me?

I think it’s targeting your family,
but I don’t think you’re to blame.

You’re just seeing what’s behind it.

Why? Why me?

Because you remember it.

And it remembers you.

Whatever it had planned for
you the first time - didn’t happen.

So this is a… second chance.

[Denny] What’s going on here
is bigger than just you and me.

We just happen to be here.

[emotional music]

[doorbell]

[Kayla] Welcome home.

[scoffs] [Hope] What am I
supposed to do with these?

Uh, say thank you. Put them in a vase.

Usual human behavior. [Hope laughs]

I know you can’t take this while
you’re on medication, but… for later.

[Hope] Okay, now that
deserves a thank you. [laughs]

You have no idea how worried I’ve been.

Where’s Sophie?

You’re not alone are you?

Um, Candace and Jeremiah went to the pharmacy.

I don’t - I don’t know where
Sophie is. Probably taking a walk.

Interesting.

I was asleep and I don’t need a babysitter.

There’s nothing about Dylan’s autopsy.

[Hope] I assume his
parents asked for privacy.

Was his death a suicide or an overdose?

They found some drugs in
his system. Including fentanyl.

Lethal amount?

Aren’t you supposed to be taking it easy?

Six milligrams.

So, no.

Hope: Are they still investigating?

Well, the official cause of death is a heart attack.

But they’re saying it could be
linked to the drugs in his system.

His parents did ask for privacy and um,
there doesn’t appear to be any foul play.

Besides the drugs.

Yep.

But the Sheriff isn’t interested in that.

Kayla: I did interview a friend of his--

-that he called multiple times
on the night of his disappearance.

She’s probably hiding something,
but I don’t think she’s responsible.

Hm.

[raspy exhale and growl]

[suspenseful music]

[growl and heavy footsteps]

[heavy footsteps get louder]

[heeled footsteps on pavement]

[doorbell]

[quirky, mysterious music]

Avery? Right?

Yes. Can I help you?

I just want to ask a few questions.

Now’s not a good time.

Wait.

Your life might be in danger.

Why would you say that?

Dylan had a number of chemicals in his system.

Hope: Fentanyl. Other drugs.

If you got anything from him, it may have been laced.

You think because he called me nine
times we were doing drugs together?

I don’t know, but if you were,
then you need to get checked.

And Dylan’s family probably deserves
some answers. Don’t you think?

I’m not admitting to any drug use.

That’s fine.

Were you aware of Dylan using?

I don’t want his family to remember him that way.

They’ve already got the toxicology results.

Hope: Putting context
on everything including

where he may have gotten the substances--

-from will only help.

He sold me - he - he
offered to sell me… stuff.

He got me weed. Which…

is legal now.

Said he could get me anything else I wanted.

How long had he been dealing?
Avery: Just a couple months.

He had a record. He got in
trouble when he was a little younger.

Avery: And he had a
hard time finding a job. So.

Avery: He was always looking
for ways to make money.

And then he met this guy.

Said he was weird but… that gave him a job.

Weird, how?

He didn’t tell me much, but he said
that the guy did rituals over the drugs.

Like… some weird native tribal thing.

To be able to make money on land
without getting into trouble with spirits.

Avery: They needed protection.

And then he’d carry around this mask.

Like, a little wooden mask.

Avery, do you have any
reason to believe that…

anyone, like this person he
worked for, might know about you?

No. Dylan didn’t tell me much.

No names. No locations.

Nothing that would put me into danger.

He cared.

Is that why he called you so many times?

[somber music]

He stole money from me.

The day he went missing.

When he realized I’d figured it out.

Avery: He called to
apologize. Ask where I was.

I hung up on him. Didn’t answer.

I wish I had.

Hope: What happened
to him would’ve happened

whether you picked up the phone or not.

You don’t know that. He was scared.

He sent me voicemails begging for me to talk to him.

And you would’ve helped how?

Maybe get yourself to a hospital and get tested.

The drugs might not be what killed Dylan.

There weren’t any lethal doses in his blood, but…

Hope: Better safe than sorry.

I’ll go tomorrow.

Good idea.

Hope: I’ll leave you my number if--

-you just want to talk or
need anything at all, reach out.

Thank you.

[raspy inhale]

[gasps]

[suspenseful music]

[grunting, pained noises]

[growling]

[coughing]

[heavy breathing]

[snarls]

Avery.

This is Kayla Mitchell.

The deputy you spoke to a day ago.

[Kayla] Are you okay?

[guttural, demonic hissing]

[growling]

Avery?

We need an ambulance at 3215 Cedar Lane, now.

[somber, grave music]

Hey. Is she okay?

[Kayla] She’s alive but she’s on oxygen.
They’re going to do blood transfusions.

[Kayla] She didn’t have any family
around so I rode with her in the ambulance.

[Kayla] She was barely conscious
but she wouldn’t let go of my hand.

What happened? Was it… drug related?

[Kayla] Initial tests won’t
get back until the morning.

[Kayla] And then it’ll be another
day or two for confirmation.

Right. [Kayla] They only
found marijuana in the house…

[Kayla] …but her skin was turning
grey. She was barely breathing.

[Kayla] Her heart was almost beating
out of her chest when I got there.

[Kayla] All possible signs of an overdose.

But? [Kayla] I...

[Kayla] [sighs] I’m going to
sound crazy for saying it, but...

[Kayla] I thought… there was
something else in there when I went in.

[Kayla] I’ll stop by on my
way home. I’ve got to go.

Okay. Thanks, Kayla.

[somber, grave music fades out]

[suspenseful music, phone falls on floor]

[Hope] [gasps] Oh,
jeez. [Sophie] Oh, just me.

I woke up and I couldn't get back to sleep.

[sighs]

Are you okay? Were you on the phone?

Yeah. Um.

Yeah, Kayla called. Something about work.

Uh huh.

[Sophie] Shouldn’t you be resting? Would

Jeremiah get pissed if I told him you were up?

[laughs]

I will get to sleep soon.

I’ll try.

You should, too.

Um.

Denny told me when he gets
up in the middle of the night…

[Sophie] He um… he prays
until he falls back to sleep.

I don’t know much about that stuff
but, um… maybe we could try, too?

Sure. About anything in particular?

Um… [gentle, emotional music]

I should say thank you
for me being here. To start.

[Sophie] Um, but…

For protection, maybe. There’s
been a lot going on around here, uh.

We could use the help, right? [laughs]

Yeah. I would say so.

I did not think you’d be up.

Me either, but um… here I am.

[snorts]

Uh… you’re not walking in that, right?

Uh, can you walk, like, all the way off my back, dude?

[laughs]

[scoffs]

I’ll walk after you leave.
What are we reading?

Uh… Well…

I have been in Ephesians Chapter 4, but...

With everything going on lately, I moved to 6 today.

Why?

You’ll see.

‘Finally my brethren, be strong in
the Lord and in the power of His might.

'Put on the whole armor of God that you may be

able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

[tender, emotional music]

‘For we do not wrestle against flesh
and blood. But against principalities.

‘Against powers. Against the
rulers of the darkness of this age.

Sophie: ‘Against spiritual hosts of
wickedness in the heavenly places.

Sophie: ‘Therefore take
up the whole armor of God,

Sophie: ‘that you may be
able to withstand in the evil day.

Sophie: ‘And having done all, to stand.’

Good morning, Denny.

[kicks something ceramic]

[eerie, suspenseful music]

[Hope] It doesn’t look good.

There’s… a lot of blood.

[Sophie] You sure you
shouldn’t come back and

wait for Kayla or another deputy to get here?

No, I’ll be fine.

Whatever happened here
happened… a long time ago, so...

[Hope] It’s good for me, but...

[Sophie] Not for Denny.

Okay, hold on.

[eerie ambient music]

[mellow, mysterious music]

[knocking]

[Kayla] What the hell is happening?

I thought the home invasion
was a one off, but now all this?

Denny.

[Kayla] I’m just grateful I was at the
hospital and didn’t get there until...

After they took him down.

I know it’s early but...

Are there any leads?

There were bootprints, but…

Assuming they belonged to the killer.

[scoffs] We’ll know his shoe size, at least.

How was Avery when you left?

She’s better. Stable.

You said that…

…you felt like there was something else.

[Kayla] When you went into her place.

What did you mean?

I swear I heard a noise.
When I opened the door.

Like something I’ve never heard before.

And when I went inside the house.

It felt like… hatred.

[Kayla] Evil. Like it was in the air.

I felt it on my skin.

[unsettling ambient music]

I felt this before.

I take the same route to work every day, and…

One evening there’s this big
deer on the side of the road, and…

It looked like it had been
there for a week, but…

It definitely wasn’t there the night before.

[Kayla] At first I thought
someone dragged it there.

[Kayla] But when I got out,
there was no evidence. No tracks.

And…

I mean, why would someone do something like that?

Do you think it has something
to do with how Dylan…

…looked like he was dead
much longer than he was?

That could’ve been the drugs.

Or… whatever was responsible.

Knew that the average person would think that.

[unsettling music fades out]

[Kayla] Well, even if you
don’t sell or skip town…

[Kayla] I just think you should
get out of dodge for a few days.

We can’t afford a vacation.

[Hope] Candace is away, that’s good enough.

You off?

In a couple of hours. I’m just
going to go poke around the woods.

See if we missed anything.

Okay. Just be careful.

Hey.

Hey, um. Can I borrow
some money for an Uber?

What?

I want to go to Mt. Ephraim
where I grew up. Um.

There’s something I want to check.

I’ll drive you, just… tell
me why you want to go.

Can we talk on the way?

Sure.

[Sophie] We might’ve
parked here at some point.

I’m not sure. [sighs]

[Sophie] It looks different, now.
It’s been so long since the fires.

Well, we can look around.

I’m not even sure what I’m looking for.

[mysterious music]

I have an idea.

Follow me.

Maybe the next one fell off.

Maybe.

Or maybe we’re already here.

[tribal, percussive music]

It’s just like the one I found by Dylan.

What the heck is that?

[tapping on drum]

It’s a drum?

[Hope] Probably native.

The Lenape used to live around here.

Want to take it home?

Hell no. [drumstick lands on drum]

[laughs] Smart kid.

[Kayla] I guess the private property
sign is where your neighbor’s yard begins?

[Jeremiah] Yeah, I think I
remember seeing it before.

[Jeremiah] Uh, what the hell
are you doing in my woods?

Uh, you’re welcome.

You told the realtor you would
check out the border didn’t you?

[Jeremiah] You hiked all the
way out there just to help us out?

[laughs] Would that surprise you?

That said, I’m on the clock
so officially I’m checking…

…to see if there’s evidence that
Denny’s murderer came this way.

[Jeremiah] Let’s hope not.

[Jeremiah] Uh, would you mind dropping
a pin just so we know exactly where it is?

You bet.

[photo taken]

[somber, ambient music]

[photo taken]

[Vanessa] Oh, I’m sorry,
Denise moved to Florida

about a year ago to be closer to her family.

How did you know her?

I um. I used to live nearby.

I would walk by the church
sometimes and she uh…

…she saw me one day and invited me in.

I didn’t want to come so she brought
out cookies and these little comics.

You used to keep them in that case over there.

Oh wait, is your name… um…

I want to say… Sophia?

Close enough. Sophie. How did you?

Believe it or not you were on
the prayer list up until she left.

She always hoped you would stop
by so she knew how things turned out.

I’m assuming you’re in a better place, now.

I didn’t have an easy
route getting there, but um…

Yeah, I’m with a great family.
I’m part of a great family.

Uh…

We go to a good church up where we live, now.

Oh, so her prayers were answered.

[somber, ambient music]

[Hope] Are there so many substance
abuse tracks because no one needs them?

Oh, if only. No, this community
has been hit pretty hard.

[Vanessa] It’s been a rough
couple of years. We’ve lost

members and even more in
the extended families from…

overdoses and crime.

Was it that bad when I was here?

It started, then. Like eight years ago.

But it got really bad when the fentanyl came in.

We’re going to hold our ground,
though. God has us here for a reason.

[somber, ambient music fades out]

[static and raspy breathing from radio]

[radio stops]

[static and breathing from radio]

[radio noises stop]

[suspenseful music]

[growl]

[tribal, percussive music]

What the hell?

Jeremiah. When are you getting home?

[tribal music fades out]

[Haley] Did you want a picture with it?

Are there, um, a lot of sightings around here?

Here and there. Um…

[Haley] There were a bunch, like...

nine years ago, maybe.
Uh, if you believe the stories.

Do you?

Um… [ominous music]

Some of them.

How many are in your
party? Uh--or is it just you?

Uh, two.

Okay, I’ll grab another menu.

[Hope] Okay, so the mask represents Meswing.

A forest guardian.

His name means "Living Solid Face".

Guardian? [Hope] M-hm.

Uh, “protects the balance of nature.”

Often associated with animals.

Boring.

[Hope] Boring. Boring. Irrelevant.

[Hope] Okay, the drums were
used in different ceremonies.

Including the 'Big House Ceremony'.

What’s all that have to do with drugs?

And everything that’s been going on?

Well, they needed protection from something, right?

And he’s a forest guardian.

[Hope] The Lenape used
to call the Pine Barrens--

-which back then covered a lot more
of the state… The Place of the Dragon.

So something was out there way before
Mother Leeds’ 13th child and all that?

[Hope] Yep. Most myths…

have some basis in reality.

People just like to put their own spin on things.

[slow paced tribal music]

Sophie found something like this on the dead kid?

In his hand.

[Kayla] He was dealing drugs
and I think he kept it for protection.

It’s a safe bet that whoever was
moonshining used it for the same reason.

If it was used for protection
it’s not all that bad, right?

[laughs]

Well, unfortunately for
us it’d be considered a…

[Jeremiah] Graven image. Which would
make it an accursed object, and uh...

If you bring it into your house
you’re "doomed to destruction like it".

Oh.

I’ll take it in with me to book into evidence.

Appreciate that.

Didn’t work for Dylan, anyway. I guess.

No.

Problem is, who knows how
many more of them are out there.

Yeah.

And if you moved it would
become someone else’s problem.

You really want us out that bad?

I mean… don’t move far.

[Kayla] There are plenty of
houses for sale around the county.

But how many signs does the universe
have to give you before you listen?

[somber music]

I gave Kayla hell for bringing
that thing in this house.

Well deserved.

But I’m not sure it’s going to make
a difference if there’s more out there.

Maybe we should move.

You serious?

No...

But...

We could use the money.

[sighs]

God has always provided for us.

How do we know this isn’t how?

[Jeremiah] We won’t make a
decision without… talking it through.

I honestly don’t want to move.

[Jeremiah] And there’s the
whole home study thing, but…

[Jeremiah] It would be nice
to go to work everyday, or...

drive to my parents’ without
worrying about leaving you guys home.

I know.

[water running]

[distant thump]

[distant thump]

[distant drumbeat]

[drumbeat continues louder]

[suspenseful music]

[drumbeat stops]

[tense music]

[gasps]

[breathing heavy]

[dark, percussive music]

[fire burning]

What were you doing up?

Couldn’t sleep.

Too much to think about.

I know what you mean.

What exactly was that big jug thing Kayla found?

Moonshining still.

In English.

They uh… they used it to produce
alcohol on the black market.

[Hope] There was a prohibition around
that time and people saw it coming.

So they found a way around the government.

We know there’s a connection
between drugs and sightings.

Does that include alcohol, too?

Seems like it.

If that still is from the early 1900’s…

then it lines up with the Phenomenal Week of 1909.

Thousands of people all over the
state claimed they saw the Jersey Devil.

It scared them into
closing businesses. Schools.

So what’s the connection?

What you and Jeremiah read about.

Some evil spirits…

haunt houses or try to possess
people, like in the movies.

But, then there’s the ‘rulers of the darkness’.

[Hope] ‘The spiritual hosts of
wickedness in the heavenly places'.

[Hope] They’re more about
the long game. They...

…influence entire regions
through politics. Ideologies.

Addiction. Poverty.

And the things that cause addiction and poverty.

[dark percussive music fades out]

Hey, good morning.

You’re going to work, now?

Aren’t you doing an overnight
after you drop Candace off?

[Jeremiah] Yeah. An extra shift
opened up and we need the money.

That’s a long day.

I’ll be alright, I’ve done longer.

Coffee?

[peaceful music]

Sorry for being late.
[Jeremiah] It’s okay.

[Jeremiah] We can always
pick up tomorrow. Night.

[Sophie] Don’t drive your
dad nuts, it’s a long ride.

I won’t. And he controls the radio,
you should be worried about me.

I am. You better call me.

I will. I’ll miss you.

I’ll miss you, too.

Hey.

[Sophie groans]

You’ll be much more comfortable in bed.

Come on.

[Sophie groans]

[emotional music]

[Sophie] You okay? Yeah.

Come on.

What is this nonsense?
You’re tucking me in, now?

[laughs]

Candace doesn’t want me to,
anymore. Got to get it in where I can.

She loves it. She just
wants to be a big girl, but…

She’d cry if you didn’t.

[laughs]

Good to know.

I have no shame. Tuck me in, anytime.

[laughs]

When’s the last time anyone else did?

Well, uh.

Between the hotel rooms, cars, and the...

...benches when I was younger.

[Sophie] And then the foster parents
who didn’t know what to do with me.

This might be a first.

[laughs]

I love you.

I love you, too.

[emotional music fades out]

[clicking on mouse]

[pensive music]

[clicking]

[Kayla] Hey, kind of busy. What’s up?

Why did nobody tell me that the neighbor on
the other side of our woods is a criminal?

[Kayla] Um… Mr. Nevell? He's been quiet.

[Kayla] His parole officer
says he’s turned into a hippie.

[Kayla] He seems harmless.

Yeah, aside from spending an inordinate
amount of time on our property line.

[Kayla] Weird. Which is
why I took that picture, but…

[Kayla] Not a crime.

Did you question him about Denny’s murder?

[Kayla] Not personally but
Deputy Mitchell spoke to him.

He have an alibi?

[Kayla] You don’t really need
one unless you’re a suspect but…

[Kayla] He was out of town.

[Kayla] He called Mitchell back
from a friend’s number in Michigan.

[Kayla] Where is this coming from?

I think he’s the one trying
to buy our house. Our land.

The realtor told Jeremiah that, uh...

the buyer was local.

[Kayla] That really narrows it down.

Alright. I’ll talk to you later.

[pensive music]

[phone vibrating]

Hey. [Kayla] Hey.

[Kayla] I was on my way
back from Denny’s when I

Saw a reflector in the woods behind your house.

[Kayla] It looks like there’s
something buried here.

What?

I’m guessing you didn’t bring a shovel?

That would be correct.

I’ll spot you.

It’s your property.

[digging]

[unsettling music]

[metallic clink]

[phone vibrating]

[Adam] Whether I kill you
or not is entirely up to you.

[Adam] That’s not what I came out here for.

But if you give me a problem,

I won’t have any choice.

What do you want?

For you to stay out here with me.

[Adam] Enjoy the night air.

And no matter what you hear,

no matter what you think is going on,

you stay put.

[tense music]

That’s far enough.

[Sophie screaming]

[Adam] You go back into that
house, it’s going to kill us all.

Why?

It wants the kid.

[Adam] It’s wanted her for a long time.

Sophie?

[branches snapping, Hope gasps]

[Adam] You really willing to
give up everything to save her?

She’s not even yours, is she?

She is now.

[Sophie] Hope! Please!

[metallic clinking]

[knife cuts into flesh, Adam screams]

[both grunting in pain]

[screaming]

[pained noise]

Stay down.

Final warning.

[Adam] She’ll die.

But you get to be with your family.

How do you… know that?

If you’re quiet…

you can hear the forest speak.

[Adam] He’ll protect us from it.

But not her.

There’s nothing we can do.

I’m sorry.

Go to hell.

[pained noises]

[stabbing]

[Adam] There’s nothing we can do.

I am sorry.

I really mean that.

Good.

[gunshot, Adam cries out]

[groaning in pain]

Sophie?!

[whimpering]

[Hope grunting in distance]

[Hope] Sophie?!

[gasps]

[growling]

[pained breathing]

[Adam cries out in pain]

[Hope grunts in pain]

[Hope struggling]

Stop!

Kids shouldn’t play with guns.

Do you even know how to use that thing?

[scoffs]

[gunshot, wood cracks]

[gentle music]

[exhaling in relief]

Are you okay?

[out of breath] Yeah. I will be.

You?

Fine. Now.

[both breathing heavy]

The police should be here soon but…

call them anyway, just in case.

Okay, I’m going to go get my phone.

[deep raspy breathing]

[eerie, suspenseful music]

[suspenseful music]

[Kayla] He has an RV not too far
from here. He was working on a lab.

He wanted a fresh local supply, apparently.

And with our property, he’d have
even more cover for his operation.

Right.

Though, if you wanted to move after all this...

No one would blame you, especially
if it’s after the adoption is final.

We thought about it, but…

for one, anybody who wants to buy our
house after everything that happened...

probably not someone we want to sell to.

That’s true.

And...

and we don’t think God wants us to go anywhere.

That church in Mt. Ephraim
is still holding down the fort.

[pensive music]

Maybe in some small way
we’re supposed to do that here.

Candace, I swear I’m going to be
30 by the time you come out of there.

[Candace] I’m almost finished.
Did you print the picture for me?

I can’t concentrate with my bladder full.

And come on, you can do your hair in your room.

How do you know I’m not on the toilet?

Um, because I can smell the hair
product and you're using way too much.

[Candace] No, I’m not.

Wait, is it that bad?

Yeah, I can smell it in the kitchen.

[Jeremiah] Will you step
out and let your sister

use the dang bathroom already so she can help you?

[Candace] Okay, I need to
pee just give me a minute.

[emotional music]

Looks perfect. Thank you.

You guys coming? We’re starving.

[Jeremiah] Yeah, just
go get the car started.

Is that the timing you were telling me about?

[Jeremiah] Yep.

[Sophie] [sighs] Come on.

[Candace] So hungry.

If you’re going to not wear a
tie, at least button up your shirt.

[Hope laughs] [Jeremiah]
What difference does it make?

Not like we’re going to Red Lobster.

Hey, look.

Candace chose it, herself.

[menacing, suspenseful music]

What’s wrong?

If there was something
bigger involved in all this…

it’s not going to give up is it?

I think we bought our area some time, but...

no.

[Hope] Probably not.

[pensive, sobering music]

But if we know what we’re dealing with.

Which we do, now.

Then, we have a chance.

I wish I had your confidence.

[dark percussive music]
