Just a sec.

Hi, Alison.
Good to see you.

Come on in. Close the door.

Oh, shit! I can't get this damn hair
to stay in place.

What took you so long?
You're 15 minutes late.

Uh, well, I-I-I...
I'm sorry I was late.

I was late because...

Oh, goddamn! Where is that brush?

So, Norman, what do you think?

Uh, about what?

What?

Oh, the dress!
It's beautiful. It looks great.

My hair!

Oh...

Yeah, it's totally awesome.

I mean, it's awesome.
It's really good.

I went with my mom
to the beauty parlor and...

Well, she really wanted us to have
the same hair for tonight's party,

and I didn't want her to feel bad, so...

- What is that, Norman?
- What? What?

Jesus Christ, that's awful!

That has got to be the ugliest shirt
I have ever seen in my entire life.

Where in the world did you get that?

Well, it was my brother's.

Uh, for his wedding.
It's his wedding suit.

Well, this is a birthday party,
remember?

Yeah, well, I thought I could borrow it
and it'd look fine, but I guess...

Yeah, well,
it's definitely more of a...

more of a, uh, wedding shirt.

You know...

Alison, I really missed you.

Oh, you didn't shave, huh?

No, I-I-I didn't have time.
I didn't want to be late.

Would you... would you do me up?

Careful, this dress is killing me.

- Shall we?
- We have to hurry.

Uh, okay.

- So, how was your trip?
- Oh...

You know, I'm a little bit nervous
about meeting your parents.

I mean...

You know, not too much,
just a little bit anxious.

Uh-huh.

But I think it's a good thing, I mean...
you know, meeting them and everything.

Because, I mean, we've been going out for
almost a year now, and I've never met them.

You know, I think it's important
at this point in our relationship to evolve.

I think it's probably important
for both... for both of us.

Uh-huh.

- Look at that, I found your brush.
- Oh, great.

- Here.
- Oh, what's this?

It's a fountain pen. Dad loves them.

Oh. Uh, well, um...

You know, if you wouldn't mind too much,
I'd like to be there when you give it to him.

Uh, I just think that it would be
a good first impression

if we gave it to him together,
and he thought it was from both of us.

Don't worry about it.

Well, with that in mind,
I'd like to help you pay for it.

Maybe I could just give you
some money to chip in if you...

Seriously, Norman.
Forget it, will you?

It's not a problem.
I... I got money.

Just how much was it?

Really, because...

You have a cold?

Uh, just a little one.

I'm... I'm taking antibiotics.

Matter of fact,
you got a glass of water?

Here.

Oh, shit! Oh, you've gotta get
out of here right now.

- Come on!
- Why? What's the problem?

My mom left her valium here,
and I know she'll be back for it any minute.

- I don't want her to see you here, come on!
- I'm sure your mom would love to meet me.

Not in the bedroom, okay?

Okay, but Alison, wait, there's something
I wanted to talk to you about.

What are you talking about?
Come on, let's go.

I'll see you downstairs, okay?

- But I wanted to give you...
- Bye!

But, Alison, I...

That's alright.
I'll just give it to you later.

What? Oh, no.

Shit! Come on!

Great.

Oh, hi. How you doing?
You going down?

Or you going up?
Either way. No, it's fine!

- Watch out, you're gonna
- Shit! You alright?

What's up?

Oh relax, man. The only reason
he's here is cos he's the boss's son.

Get yourself another drink, man.

Vincent?

Come on now, open the door.

For Christ's sake.

Totally unreal, man!
Norman Forrester!

Face!

Hi, Vincent, how you doing?

Good to see you.
What are you doing here?

I guess you could say I'm working, man.
What are you doing here?

- Oh, you're working here in this hotel?
- No, not here, man.

Brannigan Labs.
Pharmaceutical research, man.

It's like, testing new drugs,
you know?

It's like, pills on Monday,
injections on Thursday.

Hangovers are on Saturday,
it's pretty much always the same, man.

But you know what, I can't complain.

We got this kick-ass party going on
right over here, man.

You should come check it out.

Hey, nice shirt, man.
What, didn't shave today?

Guys, this is Norman. He's gonna be
hanging out with us tonight, man.

Hi, nice meeting you guys.

I'd love to hang out,
but I really gotta go.

Aw, come on, man. We've got strippers
showing up and everything.

Keep it down, guys. Keep it down.

I'd love to, but I...
I gotta make like a tree... and leaf.

No, seriously.
It's my girlfriend's birthday, it's a dance.

Girlfriend?
Come on, don't give me that, man.

Stay a while, have a drink.

You know, I would really love to,
but my train is leaving.

You know, after all the times
I watched your back in gym class, man,

I can't believe you can't stay
five minutes and have a drink.

I know, I know, you're right.

But I'm actually... I'm on antibiotics.
So I can't drink anyway.

And besides that,
I got a girlfriend waiting downstairs.

- I gotta get back to her...
- Yeah, Norman Forrester and women, man.

I know. I'm a mess.

When you get down there and you see
that party sucks, come back up.

Bye.

Hi, how you doing?

Well... Oh, I'm sorry.

Oh, you must be, uh...

Anjelica? Anjelica!

Mr. Fulton, you didn't have
to give them more money.

Listen, don't worry about it.
Everything's just fine.

I told Mr. Nelson our sound system
would take up half the stage.

I swear that's the tiniest stage
I've ever seen!

- I'm sorry.
- Morris, forget about it.

- Let's just get on with this party.
- Yulia!

Trust me, everything
will be perfect. Perfect.

Hey, you.

Are you with the Fulton party?

- Oh, yeah.
- Step over here, please.

Okay.

Your name?

I'm actually... I'm with Alison Fulton.

She was just with me a second ago.
We were...

- You're Marcia Adams?
- Uh, no.

- My name is Norman Forrester.
- You're not on the list.

Oh, well, it should be
right there under F.

Uh... O-R...

But I don't suppose you'd be lying to me.

- Morris? Are you Morris?
- Yes, ma'am. You are...?

- We spoke on the phone. The Beresfords.
- Oh, I see.

- Do you have your invitations?
- Yes.

Emma, dear!

- Oh, god, there she is, the Black Widow.
- Now, now, Jonathon, not tonight.

Fuck!

Excuse me, sir.
May I take your coat?

- What? What?
- Your coat.

That's odd.
I just saw Casper a minute ago.

Your coat?
Your coat, I'll put it away for you.

I'm not wearing a coat.
I don't know what you're talking about.

Where did you leave it?

I just came in. I'm wearing a jacket.

Do you understand
what I'm trying to say to you?

No!

Please excuse me, sir.
It won't happen again. Enjoy the party.

Oh, my god!
That is the tiniest stage I've ever seen!

You. I've been looking
for somebody like you.

- Really?
- Abso-fucking-lutely.

Hey, man, this place...

Fantastic! Wow!

Me and my boys, we're gonna
fucking kick ass here tonight, man!

You want I should hang up your coat?

My coat? No.

- Take me to the stage, man. The stage!
- Of course, sir. It's right this way.

Hey, could some of your pals from the kitchen
bring me a Bloody Mary?

It's for the voice, you know?

Yulia?

Yulia!

Alison?

Hi. Is that good?
You like that?

Oh, my god, that's awful.

Where's your parents?

It's alive.

It's hard to choose, isn't it?
They all look delicious.

A-ha! That one looks good.

I'm sorry. It's our fault.
The heat should come on soon.

The old boilers just don't work
like they used to.

A bit like this family.

Wait a minute. I'm sorry, son,
but I don't believe I know you.

- Am I interrupting something?
- Of course not. Ron, come on.

- Uncle Casper.
- Sweet Ali...

Mmm, I want one, I'm starving.

- It's freezing in here.
- We were just talking about that.

Dear Alison, you look wonderful.

You know, you look a little more
like your mother every day.

By the way, where is she?
I haven't seen her yet.

- She's in her room.
- She's not feeling well?

Casper, don't ask questions
you know the answer to.

She's just a little dizzy, that's all.
She'll be down in a few minutes.

Oh, no, not again.
Don't worry. Don't worry.

Alison!
Can we talk for a second?

I told you to wait until I came down.

Alison, that's what I was doing.
Alison?

- 'One, two...'
- That's what I was doing.

Jesus, Norman, you were talking
to my Uncle Casper.

Of course I was talking to your uncle.
He was talking to me first.

What do you expect me to do?
I mean...

First of all, everybody was calling him
Mr. Fulton. I thought he was your father.

On top of it, you guys,
your eyes are identical.

What are you talking about?

What are they doing?

Fuck! Oh, shit!

- Norman!
- What?

That's the glass from my bathroom.

What did you want me to do with it?
I was trying to hide it for you.

You said that you didn't want your mother
to see it in case I ran into her.

- You ran into my mother? Oh, god.
- Yeah. As a matter of fact, I did.

You talked to my mother?
Oh, god, Norman.

No, I didn't talk to her,
but what does it matter if I did?

So what? I mean, I thought
that's why you invited me here,

cos you wanted me
to meet your family.

Jesus, Norman.
It's not that easy, okay?

Look at my father.
He's very upset.

I mean, the funeral was a total mess.
I mean, totally crazy.

Well, most of the family backed out
at the last minute tonight.

Excuse me? Excuse me?

There's tons more food than we need.

That band sucks.

Listen, just give me
a little time, okay?

- There'll be a better moment.
- I'm waiting.

When is it gonna be a better moment?
You're gonna be busy all night.

Just give me that stupid glass.

Thanks.

I've been trying to get rid of that
all night.

- Wait, you know what?
- Norman!

- Would you like something, sir?
- No, he doesn't.

No, thank you.

You're on antibiotics, no?

Alison, come here!

- Ah. I'll be right back.
- Wait, Alison...

- Just two minutes...
- Don't move.

Okay.

What are you looking at?

- You're not well.
- What? What did you say, kid?

You know what, beat it...

'Well, well, now.
What do I see here?

'Beautiful crowd we've got here tonight,
beautiful!

'This is Nelson.

'Tiny Ricky Nelson.

'And this is my band, the Baltimore
Flamingos Rainbow Orchestra!

'It is truly an honor to be here
with you folks tonight.

'Ladies and gentlemen...
it's Tiny Time!

'Boom! Magic!
And there she is, the lovely Yulia!'

- Were you in Barcelona?
- Barcelona?

I don't think so.
No, we were in the south.

- Seville?
- Seville? Was that Seville?

No, it was Murcia.

Sweetheart?

Is there something
that you'd like to tell me?

Uh...

Good evening, sir.
What can I get you?

Uh... I guess...
I guess a Pepsi would be great.

- By all means, sir.
- Thanks.

- Sir.
- Thank you.

Cold, isn't it?

What? Oh, yeah.
It's a bit chilly in here.

This building's just one big freezer.

Ever been in a freezer?

No, uh... not lately.

I have. Once.

He was a butcher, you know?

Hello?

Oh, sorry. I don't have a light. Sorry.

Thanks.

Don't worry about it.

Madeleine.

Hi, Madeline. How are you?
I'm Norman.

Norman, hmm...

You seem like a nice guy, Norman.

Thanks.

That's funny.
Haven't we met before?

No, I don't believe we have.

That's what I meant.

Who the hell are you?

Um, my girlfriend's right over there.
I gotta go. Sorry.

Norman?

Just whistle.

Get over here, goddamn it!

Daddy, it's okay. Calm down.

Is everything alright, Mr. Fulton?

My guests are freezing to death,
can't you do something for Christ's sake?

- I'm trying.
- Trying is not enough, Morris.

Sir, I'll see what I can do.

Oh, for the love of god,
it shouldn't be so difficult.

Oh, Mom!

Sorry, sir, please have a seat.

Are you okay?
You look beautiful, Mom.

'Thank you, thank you,
thank you very much.

'This is Nelson, Tiny Ricky Nelson.'

Tiny Ricky Nelson?
What kind of a name is that?

That's his stage name, Marion,
just a stage name.

'Now, ladies and gentlemen...

So, go on, Ron.
What kind of business are you in now?

We've got the restoration of the East Wing
of the National Aquarium underway now.

Finally.

It's been out of use ever since
some thugs broke into it ten weeks ago.

The funny thing is, the only thing
they stole was a machine

some college kids
from New Jersey invented.

Luckily, that damn machine
wasn't worth anything anyway.

- What kind of a machine was it?
- It was an amplifier.

They used it in the dolphin show
as a translator from our language to theirs.

How fascinating!

You've never been
to the aquarium?

- No.
- That was a popular show.

But what was the name
of that machine, anyway?

Uh, actually, it was it was called
the, uh... the Dolphin Voice Decoder.

The Dolphin Voice Decoder.
That's right, exactly! I'd forgotten.

- Were you there?
- Uh, yeah. I-I-I was.

So did you actually get
to see those dolphins talk?

Well, the way it worked was...

Well, somebody
in the audience would...

have a request, a trick that
they wanted to see the dolphins do.

And they had...
the trainers had these synthesizers,

and they would just hit a note
on the synthesizer

which would emit
a high-pitched frequency sound

that only the dolphins could hear.

Kind of like if you heard a song
in your head, and you were trying to...

I'm probably not explaining this very well.

You're explaining it very well.

No, no, really, I'm fascinated.

What do you do, young man?

Uh... I work in a pizzeria.

An Italian restaurant.

- Where?
- Brooklyn, actually.

- Brooklyn? Are you from New York?
- Uh, no.

Uh, Brooklyn in Baltimore.

Brooklyn in Baltimore, that's funny!

- Well, my parents are from New York.
- Oh, that's interesting.

Well, anyone listening would think
you were an expert in dolphins.

Where did you learn to talk like that?

Um, well, I was actually at... the park,

and I was with my cousin Timmy,
and we, uh...

we picked up one of those pamphlets...

A pamphlet?

So he read it in a pamphlet.

What a shame
they closed it down.

I would've loved to have heard
that machine. It sounds so interesting.

A pamphlet.

It's hard to believe we can communicate
with animals through a machine.

You're right, Jonathon.
It is hard to believe.

- In fact, it's unbelievable.
- I'm sorry, I don't get it.

Oh, for crying out loud,
it was a scam.

The dolphins only did
what they were trained to do.

A shark if wrong and a fish if right.
That's how it worked.

The kids loved going up to the machine,
if only to touch it.

But I can assure you of one thing.

That damn piece of junk
had only one function,

and that was to make loud noises.

Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm afraid I've given it away.

Well, I'm going to get myself a drink.

What can I bring for anyone?
There's plenty of food.

- What would you like?
- Wait a minute, Casper.

You said you worked in a restaurant,
isn't that right?

Well, may I ask you
exactly what you do there?

Oh, I...

Ron, please.

What's the matter, Casper?
We're just chatting. Aren't you interested?

Answer me, boy.

Oh, my god,
it's little Roger Ming O'Pie.

Well, would you believe it?
Look at that. I just can't...

I mean, look at him. He has grown.

Alison, where's Marcia Adams?

Wasn't she supposed to be
your guest tonight?

- Or am I mistaken?
- Daddy, please. I already told you.

'Thank you. Thank you, folks.'

- 'Man, it's cold in here!'
- Sorry.

What are you doing?
Where are you going?

I'm going out for some air.

Care to join me?

No, no.
No, I'm staying right here.

Okay. Cool.

Fucking bullshit, I'll tell you that.
I'm not gonna put up with that shit.

Dude, fuck, dude!
I've never seen puke like that before.

It feels like I've got razors in my throat.

- Yeah, let's just keep on drinking!
- That's the best thing I've heard all day.

So, why'd you leave like that?

Oh, well, you know, I was feeling
very uncomfortable in there.

I mean, it... it...

I don't think your father likes me
very much at all.

And I would have appreciated it
if you would have, you know,

stood up for me or something.

I mean, I felt like I was...
just kind of left all alone.

Don't be silly. I mean,
my father is like that with everyone.

Well, maybe you could've warned me
about that, you know?

A little... heads up, you know?

Maybe I wouldn't have acted
so... so stupid.

God, Norman. You know, you're always
thinking about yourself.

Don't you think I felt bad?

Yeah, you know what?
Don't worry about it. I just, I...

I just want you to be fine, okay?
I want you to be okay, and, um...

I'll be alright.
I just wanted to talk to you.

I'm sorry.

I just didn't get a chance, that's all.

It's fine. It's fine.

It's fine. I just,
I feel like, you know...

The wrong corpse at the wrong funeral
in there or something.

What?

Do you really have to make jokes
about funerals now?

- What is wrong with you, Norman?
- Oh, my god. I-I'm sorry.

- You are unbelievable.
- Alison, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it.

You are such a coward.

I mean, you always give in
just to keep from arguing.

You're right. I'm sorry.

It's okay.

- Actually, it's wonderful.
- 'Thanks a lot, folks.'

- It is?
- Shit, I gotta go.

Alison? Wait a second.
Come on. Wait, wait.

- Alison! Alison, wait a second!
- What?

'I'll be back with you
in a minute, so don't you go away...'

Wait a second.
Listen to me for two minutes, okay?

I just need you to stay with me
for a little bit here.

Okay?
I'm feeling a little bit awkward.

Look, Norman, I can't be holding
your hand all the time.

Holding my hand?
Holding my hand, Alison?

We've hardly been in the same room
together tonight, okay?

Listen to me, I wanna help, okay?

I wanna make things better, but...

I can barely fit in here, okay?

It's hard enough for me,
let alone to try and do it by myself.

Yeah...

Maybe that's the problem.

What... what's the problem?

Alison, what's the problem?

- Norman...
- Alison!

It's a wonderful party, Ron.
Honestly.

Don't worry, Jonathon.
It'll soon be over.

Excuse me.

- Hi, Daddy.
- Alison.

Okay. Just one minute, okay?

They're bringing out the cake.
We've gotta take the family pictures.

- Okay?
- Okay, that's great.

What do you want me to do to help?
Because I'll do whatever you want.

- I'm here for you.
- Look, I gotta go. I'll see you later.

Okay, I'll just wait here, then.

'Oh, my god.
Lovely cake!

'That's not a cake,
that's a heart attack on wheels!

'That's not a cake,
that's a fire hazard!

'Frosted cakes, they're grrrrrrreat!'

Why didn't they light
all the candles, goddamn it?

Daddy, please.

What in the hell is going on?

Alison!

- I don't run in my pantyhose!
- Alison! Alison!

Alison? Are you okay?

Okay, okay.

- Shit! I lost my bracelet.
- Your what? Your what?

Idiots! It's upside down.
Turn it around.

Then it goes in the kitchen.
Get it in the kitchen. Come on!

Hey, you! What are you doing?

What the hell is going on here?

What are you doing in here?

Morris, what the hell is all this?

- I'm sorry, Mr. Fulton...
- You ain't got no idea how much...

...how these people got in here.

Let me go, bastards, let go!

I'm very sorry. Stay calm.
This takes one minute.

- Williamson, how many you got?
- Only two.

- Theodore?
- Four. Five at most.

- Daddy, no!
- Alison!

- Get your goddamn hands off me!
- Morris! I'm talking to you!

It's okay, they're gone, Daddy.
Daddy? Oh, my god, Daddy!

Don't run away from me, you bastard!

Ronald! Ronald!

Just make sure everything goes ahead,
will you do that for me?

Make room.
Give him air, he's choking.

- Are you okay?
- Ron, goddamn it.

- His pills, Casper.
- That's it, son. Hold him right there.

Okay.

Make room.
He needs air, for Christ's sake!

Let go of me!
Get away from me, goddamn it!

I'm alright, I'm alright.

What did I say?

No matter what happens tonight,
this party will go on.

- Well said!
- That's the way, Ron!

'Go ahead, give it to him,
he deserves it!

'Hey, help him, come up on the stage.'

Yeah, give us a speech, Ron!

'Say a few words
to your charming guests.

'Come on, come on.

'Come to the stage.

'Everybody, it's Big Ron time.'

It's hard to believe,
this building is 37 years old today.

You didn't know that, did you?

Next week, it's going to be torn down.

It will no longer exist.

But I'm not sad, because
this is more than just a hotel.

It's a dream come true, a dream Casper
and I, my brother Casper and I had,

before we even set foot in this city.

City Hall wanted to build
a garbage incinerator on this site,

but we had a plan.

We were little guys,
but we weren't about to give up.

We'd find a way.

We signed up as paid volunteers,
guinea pigs...

for a research program
for a vaccine.

And six months later,
we laid the cornerstone

for the first of the Royal Fulton hotels.

And this is it.
This is the proof that it can be done.

And even though this building
will disappear,

there's something
that can never be destroyed.

The will to dream.

The future only exists
because we dream it today.

And we're tearing down
this building so that others

can lay the foundations
of a new dream.

But remember, there's always
that first brick, that first step.

My father, our father,
used to say, "The cowards..."

"The cowards never started anything."

Thank you.

Guinea pigs? What the hell
is he talking about?

Thank you.

I can't believe this shit.
Why is she doing this tonight?

Stupid fucking bow tie.

Where the fuck are the strippers, man?

- Uh, I don't know.
- Here, hold on to this.

Do you know where Vinc...?

Your momma's so fat,
if they had to haul her out,

they'd have to make two trips, man!

- Vincent! Vincent!
- Hey! Norm!

How you doing?

Hey, man! I didn't think
they'd let you out so soon, man.

- Well, I got lucky.
- Hey, I'd say so.

Got up here early.

Did you happen to notice
those weird lights?

The lights were like going down?

Hey, yeah!
Yeah, did you do that?

- Not!
- So not. No, no, listen.

I don't know what the hell happened,
but it was really weird.

There were all these guys
that came into the party,

and they were checking everybody out
and checking everybody out.

"There were all of these guys,
they were really weird,

"they were checking everybody out.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah!"
Relax, Norman, man.

Come on, dude, look.
Look, look!

Even Elmer's having
a fucking good time, man.

- That's rare.
- Yeah. Wow, it looks fun.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Relax, relax, man.

I know you like the back
of my hand, dude.

If you're squiggin' like that,
something's up, dude.

- Yeah, well...
- What's wrong, man?

You remember Alison Fulton?

Alison Fulton?
The Euro Princess from high school?

Yeah, I remember her
on the palm of my hand, man.

Yeah, I do.

Yeah, well, she's my problem.

This is fucking incredible, man.

Oh, man... Ugh...

Dude, I'm sorry, man.

Step into my office. Let's talk.

Shit, man.
It's this fucking pain again, man.

Oh, damn, it hurts, man.
I just don't know what to do...

...oh, with myself tonight.

I've, uh...
I got my own problems.

A different kind of pain, though.

Aw, come on. Would you like
a little cheese with that whine?

Seriously, man.
It can't be that bad.

Right.

Earth to Norman!
Come on, man. Just talk to me.

- Tell me what's going on, dude.
- Alright.

I don't know, it's Alison.
I mean...

Ever since she got back from Europe,

I haven't seen her till tonight.

It's just not what I expected, you know.
I mean, she's acting weird.

Well, maybe that did it.

Maybe what did it?

Her going to Europe.

Yeah...

I don't know.

I mean, uh...

I really wanted tonight to be...
like a special night for us.

I brought her this gift and...

I was planning on giving it to her,
but now I don't know if I should.

What, man, was everybody born
on the same day in that family or what?

No, it's not a birthday gift.

It's, um...

Well, it's...

It's...
It's something to show her.

Well, you know,
how I feel about her.

I love her.

Not any of my business,
but, uh, seriously...

if somebody gave me
a present like that,

I'd be thinking
they wanted to marry me, man.

So, just be careful.

Marry you?
That's what you'd be thinking?

You'd think that?

So you're saying I shouldn't do it, then?
I shouldn't give it to her, then?

Well, I...

Norman, I didn't say that, man.

I mean, but, you know,
just think about it.

If you do give it to her, you know,
things could change in her mind.

I mean, it couldn't get any worse.

I mean, I... I don't know
what's wrong with her tonight.

She's not acting the same.
It's just everything is different.

So, Alison Fulton is one of those, huh?

Always likes to turn things around.

Anything you do is wrong.

She always has the last word.
She wins, Norman.

You're right. You're right.
You know a lot about these things.

And, I mean, she always has to win,
she always has to turn it around.

Well, you know, maybe
she's just testing you, man, or...

Or, you know, maybe she's just trying
to tell you something.

But she doesn't know
how to go about doing it.

Like what? What do you think
she's trying to tell me?

I don't know, but she's a woman.

You're not gonna get anywhere asking her
anything directly, that's for sure.

She's not gonna listen to you anyway.

What you gotta do
is you gotta find something

that she's not gonna be able
to turn around, man.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

It's that present, man.
Give her that present.

It's perfect. You'll catch her
totally off guard, man.

Do you really think so?

Do you think I should give it
to her tonight?

Norman, if what you want to find out
is if there's any shit under the rug,

you're going to have to lift it up, man.

You know what?
You're onto something.

That's it, I'm gonna go in,
I'm gonna go downstairs,

and I'm gonna walk
into that stupid party,

and I'm gonna pull her right out of it,
and I'm gonna give her a piece of my mind.

I'm gonna tell her exactly what I feel.

You do that, man.

Oh, fuck, I shouldn't be drinking!
Alison's gonna kill me.

Everything'll be just fine, man.
Don't worry about it.

Hey, look at that. It's a sign.

- It'll be what it's supposed to be, man.
- Right.

- Thanks.
- Take care.

Fucking Forrester.

Okay.

I'm just gonna go down there
and I'm just gonna say, "Alison,

"you don't treat me properly,
and we need to talk about that.

"I want you to treat me with more respect,
because I deserve it.

"Now, I bought you a gift.

"And I'm totally in love with you,
and that's why I got you that gift, but...

"if you don't start treating me properly..."

And that's it.
That's what I'm gonna do.

Okay...

So here you are.

What?

What? What?

You walked out on me, you know?

I-I did?

Naughty boy.

- Sorry.
- I know what you're up to.

You're looking for Alison, right?

Yeah, why? Where is she?
Did she leave?

Go.

- She's in the ladies' room.
- Oh.

Let me fix you up.

What are you waiting for?

Nothing.

Alison?

Alison, are you in here?

Alison, we need to talk.
I'm not gonna...

What's wrong with you?

Nothing, nothing.

Well, you look like you've been crying.

I'm fine.

Let's just go back to the party, okay?

A-Alison?

Wait, where are you going?

Norman...

I know you deserve
an explanation for all of this.

But now is not the right time.

It's my fault for making things
so hard for you.

But, Norman...

- We...
- Shh!

Ali, don't.

It's alright.

I just want you to be okay.

It's okay, honey.

It's okay.

I don't know if you understand me.

Sure.

Sure, I do.

I understand you.

Really?

Yeah. Sure.

For god's sake,
we can't just walk out like this.

Damn Ronald Fulton! I don't have
to put up with that pompous bastard.

Who's he to talk
about lowering standards?

- I'd like to stick a fork up his...
- Oh, Alison, what a surprise!

Hi!

What a pity we have to leave so soon.

Yeah, we almost forgot
we have another party to go to.

We have the opening of a mini-golf,
we can't let them down.

Oh, no, really, it's fine, don't worry!

Well, you know
what these things are like.

If you don't turn up,
they forget all about you.

- Thanks for everything.
- Oh, no, we're leaving.

- Let me through.
- Excuse me, gentlemen.

Don't you touch my husband!
What are you doing?

Norman?

Do you know who we are?
We're the Beresfords!

Now, get out of my way, goodness me!
Oh, my gosh!

Come on.

'Thank you, thank you.

'Now, for our all-time favorite:
"Smoke Gets In Your Eyes".'

Isn't she just beautiful?

Yeah, she is.

She looks just like her mother did
at that age.

Yeah...

You're one hell of a lucky guy.
You know that, don't you?

Yeah, no, I feel pretty lucky.

Excuse me a moment.

Where are we going? Alison?

I didn't know you danced so well.

You never took me dancing.

That's true.

Well, I guess it's a good time to start.

Better late than never.

Are you feeling better?

Yeah.

Good.

You smell like alcohol.

Have you been drinking?

Oh. Uh, well...

No.

Yes, I...

When I was in the lobby,
I ran into an old friend of mine.

He was having a party upstairs.
And, uh...

Ah, Brannigan Lab's party.
Some old friends of Dad's.

They heard we were opening up
the hotel for the party tonight,

and they asked us for a room,
you know, as a favor.

You knew about that party?

Norman, my father owns this hotel.

Sometimes I feel so stupid, you know?

Don't say that.

'Okay, everybody.

'The Fulton brothers are finally
gonna open their presents.

'The special moment has arrived.'

- The present! Shit!
- Oh...

Don't have a cow, Alison.
We can fix it.

Oh, God.

Alison!

You're not gonna leave me again.
Not this time.

Well, you're coming with me,
aren't you?

Yeah, of course.

'We hope that
you've been good to the hosts,

and made them even happier
than they are now.

'When they ask that question,
"Where is the love?" I know it's here.'

'Okay, okay, party people...'

What?

What, Alison? What?

What are you doing, Alison?

Wait. Wait. Ali... Alison.

- W-w-wait.
- What's the matter?

Wait a second.

- You don't want to?
- It's not that.

Of course...
Of course I want to.

Um, it's just that...

There's a couple of things
I would like to talk to you about first.

Um... I mean, it's probably not
the best time right now, but...

I mean, we gotta get upstairs
and we got to, you know, we gotta...

I mean, you look great in the...

And, you know, the party is...

But, um...

Yeah?

Alison...

Okay, um...

You know it's hard for me sometimes
to... express my feelings.

And, um...

Well, there's a lot of things
I have on my mind that I, um...

I need to say.

Well, the point is that I...

I made a decision
about something and...

Well, Alison...

...here's the deal.

I am totally in love with you.

What?

What?

God, Norman!

I thought you understood.

Understood what?

What don't I understand?

Oh, god. Oh, fuck.

Oh, Jesus Christ.

You found someone, didn't you?
You found someone else!

Well, thanks for the warning.
I appreciate it.

I mean, couldn't you have
at least warned me?

Well, are you gonna say something
or are you just gonna stand there?

Norman.

- I have a lump.
- What?

- Here.
- What?

- Oh, my god!
- Oh, god, Norman.

- I'm sorry, I...
- Just don't touch me, okay?

Just leave me alone!

I'm sorry, I mean, what happened?

When did this start?
When did it happen?

When did you find out about it?

It started a few days ago in London.

A few days ago?
A few... It's freaking huge!

Oh, god, Norman.

I mean, where the fuck
did it come from?

- Have you talked to a doctor about...?
- Jesus, Norman, fuck!

Okay, it's not that easy!

My whole family gets cancer.

My grandparents, my Aunt Susan,
my mother!

Norman, my mother had
a double mastectomy last year!

I mean, what do you want me to do?
I can't tell them!

God!

Sorry. I'm sorry.

What can I do to help you?
How can I help you?

It's not just this, okay?

The reason why I haven't wanted
to go to the doctor...

...is because my...

...my period is late.

Well, maybe it's nothing, okay?

It's not like it's the first time
it's happened.

It's... it's mine?

Well, no!

I mean, yes.
With you, I mean.

Before...

I, uh...
We should probably...

Yeah.

Hey, dude,
you're Vinny's buddy, aren't you?

It's Vinny's buddy!
He's been talking about you all night.

Sorry.

Dude, you were locked
in there with her? Nice!

Why don't you all come up
to the party for a while?

No, actually, we have to go upstairs.
There's something we gotta handle.

- Just go, Norman, go ahead.
- No, really, it's fine.

No, really, it's fine.

Whoa, whoa, the four of us.
Let's do it.

Yeah, screw all that, man.
Let's go upstairs to the party.

You know what, Alison,
why don't we go up?

You can come with me,
and we'll go get the present.

Look, just do whatever you want, okay?

Okay, you go back to your party.
I'll get it.

You got a key?

It's open.
You know where I am.

'Ladies and gentlemen, my band,
the Baltimore Flamingos Rainbow Orchestra!

'On the drums we have...'

Sweet!

Some girlfriend of yours, huh?

She's hot.

Are you alright, Norm?

Hey, we'll tell Vinny you're okay.

Stupid gift.

Goddammit.

Why do I have to be the one
to do all the dirty work?

Dirty work.

Come on.

I'll be there.

Come on.

Stairs!

I'm such an idiot.

Shit!

Shit! Where the hell did it go?

Hello?

Hi. Sorry, I didn't mean
to bother anybody.

I had a little accident.

I dropped something
and I wanted to see what was...

Oh, you don't have to help, I got it...
Oh, shit!

Jesus! Fuck!
This is fucked!

Oh, shit!

- Please, don't hurt me.
- Shh! Don't move a muscle, kid.

What are you doing here, kid?
You're not one of them.

One of who?

Oh, shit. Listen, I just dropped
something, I shouldn't be here.

You were telling the truth.

For a moment there,
I thought you were...

It doesn't matter.

Hey, wait a second.
You were at the party, weren't you?

Uh, yeah, I...

Shut up and listen to me very carefully,
we don't have much time.

My name is Theodore Burn.
I'm not gonna kill you.

But you have to make an effort,
understand?

I... do.

You saw those guys were armed,
didn't you?

Okay, listen,
everybody working at this hotel,

the manager, the waiters, everybody,

they all belong to a very dangerous sect
called the Children of Ikira-Loa.

According to their belief,
their god is gonna be born here tonight.

God? What are you talking about?

I know it sounds like a bunch of bullshit,

but the weirdos that believe this crap
are killing innocent people.

- Oh.
- We've been sent here to stop them.

- We?
- The other three and myself.

Three good men who only want
to save their families.

It was simple!

We had to find ten individuals
with a set of common characteristics

and help them escape.

But we didn't find more than a pair.

You think I'm lying, eh?

All of them have it.
You see it?

Yeah, it's a tattoo, so what?

I'm sorry, kid, but you are gonna have
to help me, you understand?

- Yeah, sure.
- Good. Listen.

These nuts think that their god is being
gestated inside one of the guests.

According to them,
at some point tonight,

the individual in question is gonna have
a heart attack or epileptic fit.

They need brutal temperatures
for this birth.

That's why I came down here,
but too late.

Uh-huh...
Uh, oh.

The individual dies, or so it seems.

Then they activate some kind of device
that wakes it up.

Like an alarm clock.

The dead rises, and that's when
we enter the second phase.

Huh? Second phase?
Go on. What?

Once it regains consciousness,
its first act will be to invoke its troops.

- Yeah, sure.
- They will be the god's arms and legs.

Eyes and ears. Everything it needs
to move in this dimension.

Once the second phase is completed,

you will know that the third
and final phase has started, when...

When what?
The third phase what?

Well, you're still here.

Good.

Are you okay?

No, I'm not fucking okay!
Do I look okay?

- Try to calm down.
- I'm calm. I'm fine! Don't worry about it!

Look, if we can get everyone
out of the building, we'll be okay.

You know, everybody was acting
a little weird downstairs.

There were lots of waiters
there, too, and...

And there were waiters upstairs
at Vincent's party!

Another party?
Why didn't you say so before?

- What kind of a party is it?
- You know, a corporate party.

- I mean, a business thing.
- How old were they?

- How many were there?
- About my age. I don't know!

Maybe eight, ten. Why?

Oh, my god.
Look, we gotta get outta here, kid.

- Come on. We gotta get outta here.
- No, wait, wait, wait!

No, wait, you don't understand.

My girlfriend, I gotta warn her.
I gotta tell her when.

Your girlfriend and her family
don't have anything to do with this.

It's obvious now that
your party was just a decoy.

Why didn't I see it before?
Come on!

- What's your name, kid?
- Norman. Norman Forrester.

Write down this number, Norman.
You got a pen?

What's that?

- Well, it's a pen.
- Good.

But you can't use it because
it's my girlfriend's father's gift,

and it's very...

Never mind, just go ahead. Fuck it.

Okay, this is the plan, Norman.

They've closed off all the exits
to the building.

So, go up to the roof
and climb down the fire escape.

It's the only way out.

They were trying to tear it down before,
but I don't think they managed it.

Now, listen up.
We've lost the radio equipment.

So you've got to call this number.

Tell them it's all over, but that we need
reinforcements to finish them off.

- But it hasn't ended.
- Because it's not gonna start.

I'll go up to your friend's party,
and we'll all head up to the roof to escape.

How are you gonna get down
to leave again?

Don't worry about that.
I'm making this up as I go along.

Okay. It's clear.
Take the elevator.

You won't be recognized.
I'll take the stairs.

Good luck, kid. Go on.

Come on. Come on.
Close the fucking door.

Oh, shit.

Having a good time, sir?

I'm okay.

We brought some more
of the special house cocktail.

Delicious, aren't they?

Yeah, they're fine.

- We can get you another.
- No, no, I'm okay.

I'm okay.

Enjoy the party, sir.

Shit!

Come on, come on.

Vincent!

- Norm!
- Shh! You gotta be quiet!

Hey, did you do it man?
Did you do it?

- Listen to me...
- Oh, come on, man.

Did you give Alison
the fucking present or not?

We gotta get you out of here.
You and all your friends...

Oh, you chickened out, man.
I knew you would, man.

Listen to me, we gotta get outta here.
Do you understand? It's very important.

You do it first, Norman.
You cut it off with her.

Before she does Norman.

Cut it off? Cut what off?

Hey, Vinny! Marshall's got
something for you in the bathroom.

- Yeah.
- How's that girlfriend of yours, Norm?

Hey, hey, just leave him alone, man.
We'll be right back, Norman. I swear.

Vincent, you gotta listen to me.
Believe me! Vincent! Fuck!

- Norman, what are you doing here?
- What am I doing?

I was on the elevator, and these waiters,
they pushed me off into the hallway,

so I had to look natural.

- What was that beeping?
- It's a beeper.

They've ruled out Providence.

It was one of the four places
the Children of Ikira-Loa

were preparing for their ritual,
but only one counts.

The rest are smoke screens.

The trouble is, we don't know
which one's the real McCoy until the end.

The real McCoy? So, wait...

You're saying there could be
three other places?

But if this beeper beeps
two more times, that's it.

This hotel will be the last place
in the whole goddamn world we wanna be.

Damn it!

- If only Philip was still alive.
- Who's Phillip?

He was the only one
who knew the password

for contacting a mole
who's infiltrated the sect.

One ally.

But I've got you, Norman.
And you have to act now.

- Can you handle this?
- I-I-I don't...

Take this. It'll beep again.

That'll be the sign that nothing's
happened in the other birthplaces,

and that we have to be ready here.

Okay.

And take the gun, Norman.

No, no, no, no. I can't take that.

I-I can't be responsible
for that kind of thing.

- Norman.
- I'm not a gun guy.

Norman, there are more than I thought.
Take it.

Okay, okay.

Come on.

Trust me, Norman.
You're doing the right thing.

Come on, come on.

What the fuck am I doing with this thing?
I don't even know how to use it.

Oh, shit.

No, please. No.

Don't do it. Don't do it.

Fuck!

Help?

No!

Alison?

No...

Why?

Oh, Jesus. Oh, Jesus. Oh, god.

Okay. Okay.

Oh, my god.

You guys?

You guys?

Wake up!

Wake up!

Hello?

What are you guys doing?
What are you...?

Vincent? Vincent!

Vincent, come on, wake up, man.
We gotta get out of here.

This hotel's going crazy.

Oh, my god.

Oh, my g-god...

What the fuck?

Shh! Norman, it's me.

What happened on the roof?
The fire escape?

What the hell's going on here?
What the hell's going on?

Are these guys dead? Are they sleeping?
What the hell's going on?

- Are they gonna wake up?
- Don't worry, they're not dead.

They've been sedated with this.

It's a panacetylene derivative
mixed with some kind of heavy sedative.

Wait a minute. I drank from that.
Am I gonna get sick? Am I gonna die?

No, you obviously didn't drink
as much as they did.

A cocktail alone couldn't have
done this to your friends.

Are they gonna recover?
Are they gonna get better?

Get away from the door.
Come here!

Why are they all dressed up like that?

Why are they all lined up
and dressed up and fixed up like that?

What the fuck is that?

Looks like some kind of vaccination.

Something's missing. I don't get it.
Yeah, every last one of them.

These kids must've had contact
with the vaccine before.

The drugs they were here testing.
They were... Brannigan Lab's party!

They were here testing drugs.

Drugs? What kind of drugs?

I don't know, new drugs,
vaccines, prototypes.

Finally something makes sense.

It's not good news,
but at least we know.

Shit.

Now tell me, what happened?
The fire escape?

It fell. It collapsed.

The whole thing just fell apart
right in front of me.

There was nothing I could do about it.

There's no way out of here,
Theodore.

There's no way out.

Norman, if you're gonna flake out
on us now,

I suggest you give me back my gun
and go back to the ballroom

with your girly friend,
you understand?

Do you understand?

How?

I don't know.
But we have to think of something.

We can't give up now. Not now.

Norman, you can't lose your faith.

You never know what's
gonna happen until the end.

Don't forget that.

Listen...

Do you hear that?

The buzzing.

- What?
- Come here.

They've got a device
here at the hotel.

A broadcaster that produces
a heightened state of anxiety in people.

Makes them more receptive.
Can you hear it?

This must be the way they wake up
their guard, and this is a trial run.

- I don't hear anything, Theodore.
- Put your hand on the glass.

- Oh, Jesus!
- It'll get stronger.

Theodore, watch out!

It's okay, Norman.

Norman?

Norman, wake up!

Wake up, Norman!

Thank god.

Ah! Get the fuck away from me!
Get the fuck away from me!

You fucking psycho,
get the fuck away from me!

It's okay, Norman. Calm down.

You had me worried, kid.
For a moment...

Stay away from me!
Don't fucking get any closer!

Stay the fuck away! You're psycho!
You're all fucking psycho!

- What's wrong?
- You just tried to fucking kill me!

You fucking psycho! What was that about?
Huh? You fucking tried to kill me!

- Stay the fuck away!
- You see him?

This son of a bitch was trying
to strangle you, don't you remember?

You fainted,
and I was just trying to...

Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!
Shut the fuck up!

All night long,
all you've been telling me is bullshit!

Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit!

Ever since you came into my life,
my life has gone straight to hell!

Damn you, I've saved your life
twice tonight.

You trusted me before.

Well, I'm sorry, kid, but you're just
gonna have to trust me a little longer.

Trust! You call that trust?
You had a gun. That's not trust.

That's not trust! That's coercion.

But you know what? I don't believe
anything that you're saying anymore.

And I don't think
you even fucking believe it!

Right, Norman.
Do you want to know why?

Yes, Theodore,
I would like to know why.

Alright, then. Listen up.

I don't have to believe all this Ikira-Loa
bullshit because I'm not one of them.

Pay attention, Norman!
Read my lips. I am not one of them.

Theodore?

What? What the fuck is that?
You guys know each other?

There's no time to lose.
We can still stop it. Norman!

No, no. You can go to hell.
You're both fucking crazy.

Norman, no! No, wait!

Norman,
if you get in that elevator now,

you're turning your back
on the last chance we've got.

Think of your girlfriend!

Think of my girlfriend?
Think of my girlfriend?

I've been thinking
about my girlfriend all night.

And let me tell you something,
Theodore.

'Come on... Come on!

'Come on, everybody!
Everybody sing!

'Hey, you! Hey, you!
Come on! Join in! Join in!

'Be a joiner! Be in the crowd!

'Come on, lady!
Come on, lady, sing!

'See? You don't need to die!

'Come on, come on!'

'Come on, everybody! Come on!'

'Beautiful fucking crowd!

'Beautiful fucking crowd!'

Watch out! Watch out!

Alison? Alison!

- Are you okay? What's wrong with you?
- I'm fine, I'm fine.

- You sure?
- Is that blood?

Don't worry about it. Listen.
There's a huge problem in this hotel.

Where's the fucking gift, Norman?

Don't worry about it right now,
listen to me.

- What's going on?
- Nothing is right here, okay?

It's not right here.
Nothing is what it seems!

What are you talking about, Norman?
What? What?

- Norman, what are you...?
- Shh!

Follow me very carefully, Alison.

Alison, listen to me.

Listen to me.
They're everywhere.

- What?
- They're everywhere. They're watching us.

- Norman, this is disgusting.
- No, no...

You're drunk, and you don't even know
what you're saying.

No, I know what I'm saying.
We gotta get out of here.

- We gotta get everybody out of here.
- What?

Well, I haven't seen you for a while,
and I thought you left us.

Um... am I interrupting anything?

No, Daddy, we were just talking.

And what were you talking about?
Maps, or boats, or squirrels, or...?

Or was it pizzas?

Do you mind if I join you
in the conversation?

- Sir!
- I... I...

Hey, sir, sir!

I do believe I frighten that young man.

- Sir, listen to me.
- Who's that?

- Are you one of those fucking weirdos?
- No, it's not like that.

I've been working undercover for months.
We still got time to stop this.

- Yeah, by what? By killing a god?
- No, by killing the host of Ikira-Loa.

He wasn't at the party upstairs,
so he must be down here somewhere.

There's still one more thing...
Oh, for Christ's sake.

- Listen.
- Hey, what the...?

Listen to me, alright? I'm gonna fucking
save these people's lives, alright?

I'm getting them the fuck out of here
and saving their asses.

- That's the way it's gonna go.
- You're getting it all wrong.

It won't do any good anyway.
Ikira-Loa will be born no matter what.

You believe this shit, don't you?
You fucking believe them!

Please, put the gun down.

It won't do you any good.
Believe me.

The first sign.

The first stage is happening.

I'm alright. I'm alright.

See? It's not happening.
Nothing's happening. It's not real.

Thank god. Not yet.

It's not gonna happen. I'm telling you.

So shall we meet with them?

I've seen things
you'd just never believe.

Things that have made me change
the way I see the world.

You could be our last hope.

What do you mean, last hope?
What happened to Theodore?

I couldn't do anything to help him.
If I tried to save him, we'd both be dead.

Then I'd never have found you.
Oh, my god...

Listen. Listen very carefully.

There's no decoy.
Both parties are real.

The energy of Ikira-Loa
is upstairs and downstairs.

Now the ritual will be completed down here,
but we gotta stop it before the third phase.

Third phase? What the fuck
are you talking about?

Wait! Theodore told me
about first phase and second phase.

What the fuck is the third phase?

Remember, okay?

Hey, the boy in the wheelchair,
he's important somehow.

The boy... The boy in the wheelchair!

- 'Wow, what the hell was that?'
- Oh, my god. This is really happening.

'There's nothing to worry about.
Good vibrations!'

Norman! Norman!

What was that all about?
I mean, my father...

- Alison, shut up and listen to me!
- What?

- Listen to me for a second.
- What's the matter with you?

There's a lot of important stuff
going on right now, okay?

It's very important that you just focus
for one second.

Alright, now do you understand
what I'm talking about?

Listen, we have got to get organized.

- What are you doing with that?
- Listen to me!

- Are you crazy?
- The people around...

- Put that away!
- We can't let them know.

We gotta get everybody out
before it's too late.

- Oh, Jesus.
- I'm gonna tell everybody!

- No!
- Listen! Listen!

- What the hell are you doing?
- Norman, no!

'Good vibrations!'

Oh, my god!

Call an ambulance!

Somebody call
an ambulance!

That's it. There it is.
What the fuck?

Shit!

Oh, shit!

Fuck! Oh, fuck! Oh, shit!

What are you doing here?
There's no one left to stop it.

- You're alive!
- What are you doing here?

What am I doing? I don't know
what the fuck I'm doing here.

I followed this handicapped kid in here.

And I don't know why
I am doing any of this.

That doesn't matter.
If you're here, it's because they got you.

A new age begins.

Hopelessness, disillusion...
The age of Ikira-Loa.

If you knew about all this,
why didn't you do something to stop it?

Because you never know
where they're gonna be.

Do you have any idea how many children
of Ikira-Loa there are in the world?

We're just a chance in a thousand.

These poor bastards have no idea
what they were getting themselves into.

Fifty years ago,
we stopped the ritual in Cleveland.

Hope was the only thing
keeping us together.

But now... the whole world's turned
against each other.

You can't trust anyone anymore.

There will be no more hope,
no more love...

- There is no love.
- That's bullshit!

There is hope! There is hope,
because I am in love.

And if there's hope, we can...

Fuck.

Get up.

Get up!

Fuck! Shit!

Shit, shit.

What...?

Oh, no. Oh, god.
Oh, god. Come on.

Boys...
Boys, please, let's be reasonable.

This doesn't make sense.

What is it you want?
Is it... is it money?

If it is, just tell me how much.

I've always believed in the love of god.
Let's get my brother out of here.

What's going on?

It just doesn't make sense.

Alison?

Don't turn your back on me this time.

I know what's going on here.

It's happening.

Whether we like it or not,
it's happening.

They were right.

Who are you, anyway?

Give me a minute.

We're all gonna die here tonight.

Do you understand me?

We're all gonna die.

I'm sorry, Emma.
I don't know what's wrong with him.

Let me have a second with him, okay?
Just a second.

What the hell are you talking about?

It's the waiters.

- They all have guns.
- What?

And they're killing people, one by one.
And we're next in line.

Shut up, Norman, just shut up, okay?

You're totally freaking me out!
Why are you doing this to me?

- Listen to me.
- No!

You think I'm crazy?
I'm not crazy, Alison, okay?

The psycho waiters are killing
your guests.

Don't believe me, go look in the kitchen.
Go look in the fucking kitchen!

You will find the Beresfords.
They're lying there. They're fucking dead.

They never left the hotel, Alison.

- No!
- Trust me, I'm telling you the truth.

- The waiters are killing people.
- You're fucking crazy!

- Where do you think you're gonna go?
- Let me go!

- What are you gonna do?
- Just let me go, okay?

- No!
- I don't wanna listen to this.

I'm not gonna let you go,
because I'm gonna help you.

Help me? I don't want your help.

Alison, you don't know
what you're saying.

I don't? Have you been listening
to yourself lately?

Yes.
Yes, as a matter of fact, I have.

But you haven't heard a word I've said.

You know why?

You never hear me.

You never listen.

Well, guess what?
This time, it's gonna be different.

This time you're gonna hear
every word I have to say.

Alison, I started off tonight
with a very special idea.

I bought you a gift.

A gift that I bought with my own money.

And you know what?
It doesn't fucking matter now!

That's over with.

Look at me, Alison!

Look at me.

I took that gift and I threw it
off the goddamn roof!

And it's gone now.

It's gone.

And only one thing remains.

There's one thing that's certain.

And that is how much I love you.

I really do love you, Alison.

And all I'm asking is one thing.

For you to tell me right now,
because I don't know how you feel.

And I need to know.

So, please, tell me how you feel.

Please.

Norman...

I-I thought I had decided already
in England.

I mean, you weren't even supposed
to be here tonight, but...

Well, Marcia Adams,
she couldn't make it,

and I thought if I invited you,
and I didn't feel anything...

- I didn't. I didn't, Norman.
- What?

I am sorry. I am sure.

What are you saying?

Look, I think
it would just be better if...

Well, if we just stopped seeing
each other for a while.

You know, I've been trying
to tell you all night.

That's what you've been trying
to tell me all night?

That's what you've fucking been
trying to tell me all night?

Then why didn't you
just fucking say it?

Norman...

What do I look like to you?

Why am I fucking here?

Do I look like a fucking guinea pig?

Look...

Look at what's happening around here.

- Look, we'll talk tomorrow, okay?
- Oh, no. No.

There ain't gonna be
a fucking tomorrow. Okay?

Norman...

Might I interject a new concept
in this moment?

Shut up, you pathetic drunk!

- Hey, man, it's your party.
- You're damn right it is.

Yeah, it is. And, uh... it seems that
our services are no longer required,

and as we've been paid, there's
absolutely no reason for us to stay.

Light me.

Get out of my way, you fucking clown.

Boys, let's go. Gig's over.

We don't want to piss on your parade.

Yulia, let's go.

Ricky, why don't you
just shut the fuck up?

You're gonna get us all killed.
You understand?

Don't worry, kid.
You can hear me sing another night.

Richard! Richard!

See? I told you!
But you wouldn't listen!

I told you! I told you! I told you!

You, I fucking knew it.
Boy, come here!

Mr. Fulton, listen,
you gotta listen to me.

I know you don't like me very much,
but please, put that aside for two minutes!

- They want your brother's body!
- What?

They want your brother's body.
Listen!

These freaks have been waiting
for this moment to happen for years, okay?

And I think it's still not too late.

We can still do something
to change the course of events.

- Just shut up now!
- I'm talking to your father right now!

- Boy, go on!
- Listen to me!

What they said is that the host body
was supposed to have a heart attack!

And then they said that
at some point in the evening,

he was gonna rise again,
come back to life.

- Yeah
- Norman! Just get out of here, okay?

Shut the fuck up!
I'm talking to your goddamn father!

What is it?

I think the best thing to do
will be to cut his head off.

You should probably be the one...

...that should do it.

Get out of my sight.

Ipov-la Ikira!
Ipov-la Ikira!

Ipov-la Ikira! Ipov-la Ikira!

Alison!

Oh, god...

I did it. I did it, Theodore.

- Norman?
- Alison!

- Oh, my god!
- It's okay. It's over. We did it.

- It's not over!
- What?

My god, you gotta tell me
what's going on here.

- Norman?
- Ikira-Loa! It's a god!

- What?
- Ikira-Loa!

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

It's happening. The third phase,
we're supposed to stop it before the cycle.

- What are you saying? I don't understand.
- You never listen, Ali.

We're listening, son.

Tell us what you know.

- Come on, come on.
- What? What?

You said my brother
would rise again, and he did.

- Daddy, please...
- Be quiet, Alison.

- What do we have to do to stop this?
- Ikira-Loa...

Okay, let me try...
Let me try to remember.

It's the third phase.
This is very important!

Oh, my God,
it's getting closer.

The third phase...
Okay, I can remember.

It was the assimilation.

We can't... We can't...

We can't let it get any closer.

Well, the cycle closes with...

...when the host body assimilates with...

...with the person
genetically closest to it.

I see.

In order to save everyone here,
I'd have to die.

- Oh, I wasn't suggesting that, I was...
- Do you have a better idea?

- Somebody has to do it.
- No!

- Daddy!
- Do it! Just look around you!

Do you want all these people to suffer more?
Do you want Alison to suffer?

What are you waiting for?

I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry, son.

Do it.

- Alison?
- Norman... Norman?

I just wanted to say that
you've shown great courage, Norman.

Oh...

Thanks a lot, Father.
Thank you.

Oh, god. No.

Alison?

- Alison!
- No! No!

No, Casper! No!

- Not your daughter!
- What?

Oh, no. Oh, god.

Alison!

Alison!

Norman!
