All language subtitles for The Hermit 2025

you

see this once I have bars again.

I'm okay.

This hike just turned out to be a little
more intense than I thought.

But I'm okay. I'm... I'm fine.

I know what to do. At least this time
I'm in America and everyone speaks

here.

My compass seems to be acting up.

It's going to be fine.

I'll be home before dark. I promise.

I love you all.

Be safe out there.

Oh, fuck, I'm lost.

Okay,

I see that you are busy.

But the thing is, I'm lost.

I would just like you to point me in the
direction of the lake and campground.

Sir?

Are you listening?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I startled you.

I'm so sorry. Super, super sorry.

Are you out of hearing?

Is everything all right?

Protect my mom from intruders.

Horror and despair in upstate New York.

Out with victims.

A modern day Sweeney Todd.

Previously presumed missing, Lisa
Phoenix, 18, was found...

What

everyone wants to know is how...

What might a visitor find in the
refrigerator?

Some fruit?

A juicy steak?

For 18 -year -old Lisa Phoenix, the
findings were far more ghastly.

Cut.

You good?

No.

She's 18.

This feels very exploitative.

It's news.

And you're the only one she's willing to
speak to.

It's a feather in your cap.

You want to be taken as a serious
journalist.

What do you want your legacy to be?

I'm sorry.

Was that supposed to be Barbara Walters?
I'm not very good at impressions.

Come on. The kid has been through hell.

He deserves a moment in the sun.

You're helping her.

I hope so, but... A scary hermit in the
woods has been collecting bodies for

years? Come on.

You know that's too simple.

The cops have been making the same
mistake over and over. Every skull they

out of that farm just proves their
laziness.

Everyone is just letting the narrative
play itself out. No one is digging.

But if you ask me, the story they're
selling is just too skinny.

Maybe.

Her interview is the last piece of the
puzzle.

The glue. Without it, we just spent
weeks interviewing rednecks and

for no good reason.

This will be your daytime Emmy.

You did get tobacco spit on your shoe,
and that had to be a fortifying life

experience.

No. I swear, I can still feel it.

How are you feeling, Lisa?

Wow. Starting off with the easy
questions, huh?

I'm finding ways to be hopeful again.

How about your day -to -day?

Have you been able to get some rest?

Are you a shrink?

Because I've seen a lot of those.

No.

The world is just a maze that you made
it through all that you have.

What does the other side of hell look
like?

I'm cool.

Good vibes only.

I just want to know what happened.

Through your eyes.

Okay.

Why don't we start from the very
beginning?

How did that day start?

You woke up and you... I woke up and,

um...

I made breakfast for Eric.

So what's on the menu today?

Just a bacon egg sandwich.

And he can't make his own breakfast
because?

Because I want to. Why do you always
have to piss on things? Lisa, you've

this guy for maybe three months and
you're once again obsessed.

So what? He's sweet. I like him.

You wake up every day early to cook him
breakfast.

What are you, his personal chef?

I heard he was busted for shoplifting at
Target once.

He's a little weirdo.

Yeah, he told me that story.

He has a problem. He's working on it,
okay? He's human.

Not perfect.

You get so clingy and you let these guys
step all over you.

Are you a doormat, Lisa? You need to
find somebody who can really take care

you, okay? Somebody who is kind and
sweet.

Right, says the bitch who finds all of
her dates on Tinder. Look, leave me out

of this. Finding a good guy is a real
issue, okay?

Jokes aside, how are you feeling about
this week?

I could be better.

Lisa, you're going to be late for
school.

Is that your dad? Yeah.

Okay, it's been a tough year for both of
you, so try not to be too angry, okay?

I will. I'll try.

So your mother passed away not long
before that.

Yeah, it was eight months before, but I
was starting to feel better.

I tried to stay away from people,
honestly.

Everyone kind of looked at me like they
pitied me.

I couldn't take it.

Eric was the only one who didn't really
seem to care.

This is why you guys were going to
Linden Park, right?

This was your family tradition?

We would go every year.

My dad was dead set on...

Finding a different spot this time, I
guess it was too painful for him to go

without her.

I hope you don't mind me asking, how did
your mom... Lung cancer.

I see.

Funny, though, because she wasn't even
the one who was smoking.

Lisa, it's our family tradition.

Family.

And he's my... boyfriend.

Will you stop smoking that in our living
room?

You just met the guy. And why does that
matter? He makes me feel good.

Oh, I'm sure.

Oh, please.

Look, I understand if you feel like
slutting around a little bit, especially

after everything we've been through.

Slutting around?

You're disgusting.

Watch the way you talk to me.

You're a few whiskeys away from drinking
your way to mom. I said watch your

mouth. I know about Mary, by the way.

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

How does it feel fucking her friend
right before she died? Enough!

I'm just glad your mother's not here to
see you act like this.

You're a pathetic...

I guess he felt guilty about that.

Spoiled little brat.

After he sobered up the next day.

And he told me to invite Eric on our
fishing trip.

You know how it is. Parents aren't
always the easiest relationships to

Yeah.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm fine.

Do you want to take a break?

No, not now.

The drive up was really fun, though.

But you made a pit stop before the lake.

Oh, yeah.

The gas station.

Owned by Barry and Helen Anderson.

What can you tell me about them?

That they owned a shotgun.

What the fuck are you doing out here?

Can you come to the front? We have
clients.

Fucking idiot.

And don't leave. that fucking thing
lying around?

How many times do I have to tell you?

Bitch.

Here's some money for snacks.

Thank you. You're welcome.

Eric, come on.

Yep.

Don't be all day.

Any good fishing spots around here?

Yeah, I know spots.

Look what I found.

Oh, what is that?

It's a plant book. I'll recognize every
plant in our path.

It'll be a fun activity.

Oh, my God, that'd be so much fun.

It comes with a magnifying glass.

No shit.

What are you eating? It smells like
doggy poo.

It's jerky.

Want some? No, thanks. I'm pretty sure
you're eating dried -up dog shit. Oh,

don't this my jerky, all right? In
pioneer times, this is their Mars bars.

In pioneer times, people died of
diarrhea.

Tyree can kill you?

Everybody knows that.

Jesus.

Lollipop rings.

Get everything you needed?

There's no bars.

I wouldn't bother. There's no celery
sips in this side of the park.

Where are you taking us? The dark side
of the moon?

For your information...

Country bumpkin in a gas station told me
about the perfect fishing spot.

So spoiled.

Just sit back, relax, enjoy the country.

It's your fault.

They should have never been here.

I'm sorry, Mama. I'm sorry.

The guy at the gas station, Barry, he
was the one who told us about this spot.

We had to take down some kind of wooden
gate to get through.

See? No big deal. Are you sure we should
be going in there? We're gonna piss

somebody off.

And your father was fine with that?

Yeah. I felt like it wasn't okay, but he
said that that's what the locals

do, and that's what the guy at the gas
station said.

That's how we ended up on Hugo's
property.

So once you got there, what did you guys
do? Me and Eric went into the forest

to...

Find berries or a snack or something. I
don't know.

But somehow, Hugo knew you were there.

He knew.

Hugo always knows.

Keep them out, Hugo.

Keep them out.

Okay, Mama.

Is this thing on?

Can you repeat the question?

I asked you about Tony.

Tony.

Yeah, he was a little rough around the
edges, but we were two peas in a pod.

Hey, man.

Hey, yourself.

We're neighbors.

I noticed.

Been fishing here before?

First time fella at the gas station
hooked me up.

Me too.

You're in for a treat.

The fish here are biting.

I caught three in the last hour.

It's quiet, and there's no one here to
scare the fish away.

Thank God for that, because I've had all
the noise I could deal with on a ride

up here with those kids.

You do speak my language.

I'm Clarice.

I'm Tony.

Nice to meet you.

Thanks for the beer, Clarice.

When are you coming back, Mama?

I'll be home soon, Hugo.

But remember, if just one thing is out
of place, you will regret it.

We hiked for a while, but then we
decided to head back to camp.

Oh, you son of a bitch. He whipped me.
Yeah, well, stop following so close.

You're right up my ass.

I wouldn't be up your butt if we
followed the trail. Okay, we're

trail. No, we're not.

Yes, I'm not. Holy shit, yeah, where the
fuck's the trail? We passed it 40

minutes ago.

Why didn't you tell me? I did.

Really? You would have known that if you
weren't so busy shooting everything

with your pellet gun.

Okay, okay, I'm sorry, all right? I
just, I can't think straight with all

fucking flies around.

What, like that?

Uh, animal.

Probably.

Okay.

Let's keep going.

Mm -hmm.

I think that we came from that way.

Yeah. Yeah, no, that is familiar.

Okay.

We're officially lost.

How? We're in a park, okay? You can't
get lost in a park.

What?

This park isn't a green place in the
suburbs.

It's 100 square miles of wilderness.

Okay, okay.

I'm not sure when those kids wandered
off. You know, it used to be when you

wanted a teenager to stay put, you had
to tie them down.

But now you just stick them in front of
a video game and watch them fry their

brain. But there's no Internet out by
the park.

That's what I love about it.

This is the shit, huh?

I'll say.

And the bonus is the kids aren't here
bugging the shit out of me.

Mm -hmm.

Oh, I got one. I got a big one.

You're kidding.

Oh, man, I need it.

Oh.

Lisa! Eric!

Lisa, Eric!

Those stupid kids.

I can't believe they actually went to
look for fucking berries.

Do you hear that?

Yeah, it's a wind chime.

My grandma has one of those in the
backyard. It drives me crazy when I

over.

What's that other sound?

Some animals?

Probably.

Sounds like the one we heard before.

Yeah.

Oh, check it out. It's a pig farm.

Of course it's a pig farm. We're not
lucky to stumble across a bus station.

What is a pig farm doing in the middle
of the forest?

I don't know.

Okay, well, you know, maybe we can get a
ride back to the campsite, right?

That'd be sweet.

My feet are killing me.

All right, Lisa, come on. Check out the
pigs.

Oh, look at them. They're so cute.

You know my grandma used to raise pigs?

What are you doing?

Holy shit! What the fuck is your
problem, man?

Don't shoot it.

I wasn't gonna.

Still, you're mean.

I'm mean?

That pig wants to kill us.

You're going to pick on an animal?

Really? Like it knows any better.

Let's just go look for help.

Gosh, I could go for bacon right now.

I said I could go for bacon.

Hello? Hello?

Is anybody home?

Nobody's home. What should we do?

Hang out till someone gets back.

What if nobody lives here?

Someone's feeding the pigs, so.

True.

I don't know. This place is creepy.

I feel like I just walked over my own
grave.

Sugar overload.

By the way, I don't know why you're
sucking on that thing. It looks exactly

a butt plug.

No, it doesn't. It's gross.

It does.

Found it. What?

Will you stop? We're trying to find
help.

You know what?

Maybe you're right.

This place is kind of creepy. Why don't
we just, you know, get out of here?

And go where?

Back the way we came.

Back the way we came?

We're lost, and it's going to be dark.
I'm not going anywhere until somebody

points me in the right fucking
direction.

All right, whatever.

Broken? Hallelujah.

No, no, it just needs an air cartridge.

Do you have one?

Yeah, back at camp.

Hey, you know what? Maybe we should, um,
go inside.

I think there's something to eat. I am
starving.

We could get into some serious trouble.
We can't just go into somebody's home.

Yes, we can.

We're lost and we're hungry.

Wait, we could get into some serious
trouble. Okay, yeah, yeah.

What are we gonna do, huh? Stay out here
all night?

Maybe. We go in if the door's unlocked.

No breaking and entering.

Okay.

Close

the

door.

So you enter the cabin under Eric's
pressure.

I tried to make him understand it was
wrong, but he wouldn't listen.

Seems like Eric and your father share
some traits.

No.

He was just looking out for me.

And my father, he always desired to be
better.

I knew he was suffering.

I honestly did think that Eric and my
father could bond.

But he didn't really seem to care about
either of us, so... I guess that's also

why we went to the woods, to escape.

I thought it would be a fun adventure.

So what did you find inside the cabin?

It was horrifying.

There were animal heads and a bunch of
junk everywhere. It stunk.

Hugo?

The Hermit.

He had this scrapbook with a bunch of
pictures of him and his mom at the

fair.

This seems like a reoccurring theme,
this whole story about him and his

It was strange.

The place was half Hell House and half a
museum of his mother.

We kept looking around.

Eric was looking for food.

At that point, we hadn't eaten all day.

So we walked to this little thing, an
old -timey refrigerator.

We shouldn't have opened it.

There was meat wrapped in strips of
brown paper bags.

I thought it was pork, but... Eric saw a
tattoo.

It was a Libra sign.

Animals don't get tattoos.

The authorities said some of the remains
they found traced back to Doris Baker.

I wouldn't know.

So what happened next after you found
the body parts?

Well, we were scared, obviously, and we
knew that whoever lived there was very

dangerous, and we had to leave.

But that's when...

He came home?

Yeah.

That's when he came back.

We didn't know what to do, so we ran
into the first room we saw, hoping he

wouldn't notice.

And then we heard the lock turn.

He just locked the door.

Oh, shit. Do you think he knows we're in
here?

Like I said, Hugo always knew.

Tony's not the absent -minded father
he's been painted as.

He was worried.

I mean, maybe, I guess, I gave him some
not -so -good advice.

Got something that'll take the chill
off.

Thank you.

Where are the kids?

Disappeared.

What?

Ain't seen them all afternoon.

You think maybe I should contact Park
Rangers?

Park Rangers work business hours.

Probably won't be back till morning.

My advice?

Chill.

The kids will be back when they get
hungry.

They always do.

You're probably right.

Maybe that's them now.

Lisa!

Is that you?

I guess not.

Some animal.

At this point, you and Eric have been in
the room for five hours at least,

right? We were looking for a way out.

A loose floorboard.

Anything. It was more like a cell than a
room.

Your mindset at this point, were you
hopeful?

We were scared.

But being in a cell messes with your
brain.

I mean, I was convinced that my father
would come and rescue me. I mean, he has

to look for me.

But I didn't know that he was in danger,
too.

Maybe this trip was a bad idea.

I don't think I was ready for it.

Hey, man.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

It's tough to be a single parent.

Most people haven't been through what
you've been through.

Thanks.

I appreciate that.

I'm gonna go get some more boots.

You want some more beer?

Why not?

Lisa? Is that you?

Lisa, is that you?

Come on out.

Oh, I get it.

You and that stupid boyfriend of yours.

Trying to scare the old man. Let's go
scare my dad.

Ha, ha, ha. Very funny.

Joke's over.

Come on out. Stop fooling around.

I didn't mean what I said yesterday.

I mean, this year's been so hard on me.

Losing your mom and... I'm so exhausted.

I can't even think straight.

I'm sorry.

I know I haven't been a good dad,
especially lately.

And I know you've been through a lot,
too.

We've been through it together.

If you come out, I promise

I'll try harder.

I love you, Lisa.

I love you so much.

Who the hell are you?

It's the retard.

Can you hear me? Hey, freak.

You stupid pig fucker! S -T

-U -P -I -D.

I'm gonna fuck you up. And after that,
I'm gonna fuck your mother.

Wait, Steve.

This is your fault. You know what you
have to do.

We never wait the meat.

Good boy, Hugo.

Good boy.

The second he looks in the door, we have
to attack him with something.

A shoe, my book, I don't care.

We have to be ready, okay?

I was in complete panic mode.

The, uh, next morning...

I had to pee.

Eric suggested that I pee in the bucket
that was right there.

I couldn't bring myself to do it.

Eric didn't have that issue.

And he smelled it right away.

I'm sorry.

Smelled?

Yeah.

And that was the first time he saw you.

Yes. And the first time I saw him up
close, Eric tried to threaten him with a

broken pistol.

He snapped that thing right out of
Eric's hand like it was nothing.

It's obvious now that we were his
captives and he wasn't letting us go

soon.

Was he feeding you?

He would come in every now and then with
pig food.

And this is what you ate?

I mean, we couldn't, even if I was
starving.

It looked disgusting.

So from what you're saying, it seems
like he was really keen to smells.

It took a while, but eventually I
realized the truth.

I think he's deaf.

At this point, Eric had pretty much
given up, but I still had hope.

I realized that there was a tool that I
could use to remove one of the boards in

the cell.

What was it?

My book.

It came with a magnifying glass, and I
broke it and used it to remove one of

boards.

We waited for him, but he wasn't coming.

Until I had an idea.

I think I'll take that piss after all.

Hugo came in to change the bucket and...
when he got inside,

Eric hit him with the board.

That was our first attempt at escaping.

Shut the fuck up.

Anything broken? No, I'm good. Okay.

Okay, we need to keep moving.

Go, go, go, go.

Evan Smith, you told the police that you
never encountered him.

Yeah, I know.

I have no idea who he was, which makes
me think it seems like because

that happened, it makes it easier to pin
any murder on Hugo.

So you think something else was going
on?

I don't know. I just know that I never
met the guy.

Interesting.

So you made it out.

How far did you get? Not far enough. We
were running and running, and then...

There was a flash of pain.

And I woke up in the shed.

He wasn't going to let us get away that
easily.

Why are you doing this?

Why are you doing this?

Why are you keeping us alive?

She had long hair, was wearing black
hiking boots and was licking on a

or something and the little boy he had
on a pink shirt he had a small bb gun

uh why aren't you writing this down
steel trap used to wait tables so i'm

ordering a goddamn cheeseburger here
buddy i heard screams last night three

people are missing they could be hurt or
in danger well maybe they went on a

hike or left early okay And technically,
ma 'am, you're on private property

right now, so the landowner probably
just asked them to leave.

You should do the same. So if they left,
why'd they leave their shit here, huh?

Why aren't you calling for backup?

Where's your boss at?

I am perfectly capable of handling the
situation, okay, ma 'am? So why don't

call this, uh, landowner person and ask
if he saw them?

Yeah, that's what I was gonna do. I was
planning on that already, so... You stay

safe, ma 'am, okay?

Pack out your trash.

Dumbass.

Park rangers?

They are renter cops for the forest.

I should have gone in there my damn
self.

He gagged me and he left me hanging in
the shed next to the cabin.

Where was Eric?

I don't know.

You didn't see Hugo take him anywhere?

I said no.

I think now would be a good time to take
a break.

You feel okay about that?

Yeah. Good for me.

Should I cut?

Cut, please.

Cutting.

I was the best journalist in town.

Stop it, Mr. Hollywood.

This is proving to be a little more
difficult than I expected.

How's that?

I need more chum for the water.

Like, she's not digging in.

She's not really telling me anything
that isn't already plastered on the

pages. Well, she did live with hillbilly
Jeffrey Dahmer, so give her a break.

Yeah, but there's more than that.

Hey, um, can you help me with something?

What's that?

Can you help me get more information on
Hugo's mother?

I have a first draft, too.

I'll see what I can do.

Thanks. You're the best.

I'll see you when you're back from L .A.

You're not kidding.

There is no service out here, bro.

Can you please focus?

Oh, yeah, right, right, right.

How far are you?

No, sir.

This guy's way off the grid, man. I am
in the bush right now.

You have any family?

Really?

A witch?

Yeah, people in town were really mean to
them.

They said she fornicated with a wild
hog.

With a what now?

to hunt for squirrels. And, like, no one
ever thought to call child services or

whatever? Cadet Scott, you are not from
around here, are you? No, sir. Sharon

Springs, born and raised.

I wanna know more about his witchy mama.

Yeah, not much to say. She disappeared
years ago. Nobody knows what happened to

her. That's kinda sad.

Roger that.

No power lines.

How does he live without electricity?

I can't believe he's the guy who makes
hermit jerky.

Yeah, folks say his mom came up with the
recipe back in the 80s.

Didn't it win like first prize at the
state fair or something like that? So it

did and the rest is local legend.

Now that I see where it comes from.

It doesn't seem like he knows we're
here. That's because he's stone deaf.

But he reads lips better than most
people here.

Calm,

it's me.

Where do you go?

We are looking for three missing
campers.

Father, his daughter, and her boyfriend.

Seen them?

All right.

We won't take up any more of your time.

Jakey.

Jakey.

Do you

think they can hear us?

They're listening to every word you say.

Thank you, man. Fresh.

Thank you, Hugo.

Fresh. Thank you.

Still looking at us, man. Yeah, let's
keep walking.

Why did the Rangers come back?

My lollipop ring.

They thought on the ground outside.

What you got over there?

The piggies are bad.

Couple more questions for you.

What

the

fuck, man?

Oh, shit.

Fuck.

Oh, shit. This is not good. This is not
good, man.

This does not look cool.

That squad's trying to kill me.

Help!

Where's the boy?

I don't know. Is my father here?

Maybe. I don't know. What?

He didn't come here with you? He's
missing, too.

You thought Hugo was dead.

He was on the floor, not moving.

The Rangers freed me, but...

We have to go find Eric.

Shoot him again, just to be sure.

No, no way.

What do you mean no way? What if he's
playing possum? No, I'm not going to

discharge my firearm again. There's
already going to be enough paperwork.

Paperwork, man? This guy just tried to
fucking kill me.

Worry about a piece of fucking paper?

Wait here while we look for this boy.

This is when I learned he was left in
the cell, alive.

All right, if Hugo goes all walking
dead, I'll blast him.

That's when I first learned Hugo's name.

This fucking sucks.

He left the other ranger alone with
Hugo.

For too long, probably.

That was Ranger Cadet Scott, right?

Yeah.

That's him.

Scott!

Scott!

What the fuck?

It was wild. I mean, after his killing,
his social media page went viral.

I heard... Mom, look who's a ranger.
First day on the job. Look at me.

Anthony, stop that.

Do you ever think your son would be a
ranger?

It's dangerous.

At Linden Park.

It's like the safest place in the world.

Look who's a ranger now, Ranger Scott.

Reporting for duty.

Put out that fire, son.

Freeze! Dispose your trash!

Woo!

My mustache looking good.

Got my gun.

When am I ever going to need a gun in a
park? When am I going to shoot a

squirrel? Oh, shit.

What's up, bro? Is the, uh, ranger
station this way?

No.

It's this way.

It's this way?

Walking this way now?

This is gonna be the chillest day.

What? Fuck you! Go ahead!

Is that shooting?

Safety! Eric!

Yeah, where's the fucking safety? I
don't know!

Just stay back. Stay back. Stay back.

Eric!

Eric!

Eric!

I can't move.

I can't run.

I can't run.

I can't run. I can't run.

Keith! Keith! Where the fuck are the
keys?

Fuck!

Okay, I just got fucking stabbed. Okay,
come on, let's go.

Come on.

I am so happy.

We're camping.

Are you going to kill me for the rest of
my life? Yeah, yeah, no, that's the

plan. Come on.

You know that's the fucking plan.

Okay, do you want to try this thing?

Easy. I just have to ransack one of the
rangers. You can't fucking just go do

it. Go get the fucking keys, okay? Okay.

Wait here, okay?

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Yes. Thank you. Thank you for saving me.

Eric. What?

Oh, my God. I thought you were dead.

Really?

You were sad?

About to be.

Lisa, get out. Lisa, fucking get out. Go
get help. Lisa, just go get

help. Go.

Stop.

I rushed back to the campsite as fast as
possible. I didn't think that my father

wouldn't be there.

What about that lady, Clarice?

She was gone, too.

I was alone.

And this is when I realized there was
only one thing that I could do.

I had to go back and find Eric.

Myself.

Yourself. You went back alone?

It was scary, but I had to do it.

When I got to the clearing,

I looked everywhere, but I couldn't find
Eric.

I looked inside a weird little
construction.

That's when Clarice showed up.

Oh, I'm sorry. So Clarice was or wasn't
there?

Yeah, when I went back to the campsite
to look for her, she must have gone to

the clearing already.

We just missed each other. But now she
was there, and I showed her the ice

house.

It's what country people used to use to
store their meat before electricity.

Do you think he's in here?

Eric!

You're going to be okay.

You're going to be okay.

You're going to be okay. When we walked
out, Hugo was waiting for us in his van.

In the van?

He wanted to run us over.

Come get me, you crazy motherfucker!

When the authorities found the clearing,
they said the van had already crashed

into the pig pen.

We had already gone by that time.

We left Clarice with Hugo, hoping that
she'll be okay.

huge motherfucker come crawling out the
van, I bolted out of there as fast as I

could. What?

I wasn't going to stick around and wait
for him to come kick my ass.

I've seen enough horror flicks. Thank
you.

Eric was bleeding so much.

You know, I had to find help as soon as
possible.

What the fuck?

Come on.

Just give me a second.

Give me a fucking minute.

No, emergency.

Shit.

Helen? Yeah, but she wasn't some nice
country lady.

She tricked us.

She locked me and Eric in the back room.
It was all part of her scheme.

She was selling jerky to the whole
county.

That's why they were sending a bunch of
tourists to this place.

More product.

Well, this is new development.

What was he doing with the money?

Hugo lived like a hermit.

It wasn't money that Hugo wanted.

He wanted his mom.

Huh?

Barry and Helen were lying to him.

What did you do, Hugo?

I could never let you slip up like this.
How could you let two stupid kids run

away?

I know.

You've been a bad boy.

Now take care of that, and we'll figure
out the shipments.

Where's Mama?

She called earlier.

She said if you can keep it up a little
bit longer, then she'll come back.

The money that was sent helps.

Let me have this straight.

They made him believe his mother was
getting the money?

They were the ones making him do
everything he was doing.

Hugo would do anything for his mom.

There are different experts studying the
psychology behind what he did.

So you're saying he was tricked.

Hugo is special.

Special.

Lisa, the death toll is staggering.

Why do you think Hugo spared you?

I want to talk about Eric.

Of course.

Help us, please!

He died in the back room where Helen
locked us.

Please! Let us go!

Let us go!

Gary, we're closing early.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

He'll come for them.

What makes you so sure?

He never wastes the meat.

I told

Eric to stay strong. I told him not to
give up.

I'm applying pressure. Why is it not
working?

I tried to stop the bleeding.

I'm the one who invited him to the trip.
I'm the reason he's there. Somebody

help us!

There's no forgiving.

How did you get

out of there?

I told you.

They had a shotgun.

Hey, hold on. Where's the shotgun?

I shot him.

The second Hugo walked in the door, I
shot him.

They left Eric there to die.

I think that when I walked out of the
back room and I saw the window and

the real world, I realized how close we
were to escaping. It didn't have to

happen like that.

I shot them.

I shot Helen. I shot Barry.

And then I called the police.

I didn't really know what to say.

I just kind of freaked out. I hung up
and I went to the nearest town and,

yeah, that's what happened.

There are still some unanswered
questions.

Let me get this straight.

Hugo was never found.

Correct.

How did he survive such a wound?

I mean, from what you're telling me, you
shot him at a really close distance.

He's a really strong man.

Also, Eric's body was never found.

Hugo must have taken him.

Lisa, is there something you're not
telling me?

Huh? Everything you're telling me sounds
really convincing.

But at the same time, the timeline's
off.

I don't know if you realize, but you
disappeared for eight full months.

This all sounds like it happened during
a course of a week at most.

I must have been confused. I didn't
really get to feel Tom like everyone

Lisa, I don't want to make you get
upset.

I can't really speak about all of this
and not be upset. I've had to make sense

of it all. Lisa, I have to ask you the
question that everyone's been wondering.

What did you do in order to survive
Hugo?

I'm not answering any more questions.
Lisa, I don't want to make you get up.

not answering any more fucking
questions.

Miss Lancaster, I think that'll be
enough.

Lisa needs a rest.

Correct. Drew, can you cut the camera?

Cutting.

Thank you for your time, Lisa.

I'll catch you later, Drew. Send me the
link to the footage whenever you get a

chance.

Mike, did you find anything?

Not much.

She was registered as Elizabeth Murphy.

She disappeared 35 years ago.

Became famous for the jerky. And then
not much really after that.

Okay, so Lisa said the gas station
people were forcing Hugo to make the

They somehow made him believe that's how
he was going to get his mother back.

And poor Lisa, I mean, she was just, I
don't know, she thought she was being

saved, but she was in greater danger,
and she called the police hoping to be

rescued, but I don't know if they
actually made contact.

No, she didn't.

She never, she never called the police.
What?

They pulled her over. That's how they
found her. She was driving the ranger's

Jeep really fast down the country road,
remember? No, no, no, no. She called,

but they just were disconnected.

There's...

Oh, my God.

Femi? Oh, she was going back.

She was going back to him.

You need to find somebody who can really
take care of you, okay? Somebody who is

kind and sweet.

God knows when Eric really died.

He might have died months before she
actually said he did.

Eric?

Eric. No more.

Daddy.

Wait. You said his mother's name was
Elizabeth?

Yes.

Evan Smith, you told the police that you
never encountered him. Are you okay?

Good boy, Hugo.

Good boy.

No power lines.

Don't waste the meat, Hugo.

Kill the intruders.

Yes, Mama.

So Clarice came back to the lake months
later.

Is anybody here?

Tony?

Kids? I knew Lisa's recollection of that
was bullshit.

She wasn't trying to be found.

She was actually pissed that Clarice
came back.

A boy that was hidden in an ice house?

Uh, no, I think I would have remembered
that.

And I didn't see the girl either after
they all disappeared.

You know, that park ranger didn't do
shit.

I felt guilty.

I felt like I hadn't done enough.

Months went by, and so I finally went
back.

Around Thanksgiving, you know?

And when I got to the clearing, that
huge monster, he came out of nowhere.

I had to defend myself, you know?

But I did.

Hugo!

I did some damage to him.

My boy.

My Hugo.

I tried to warn people.

I said, hey, maybe that Sasquatch son of
a bitch, he's the one who's taking the

kids and the men.

Nobody, nobody listened to me. They said
I'm the crazy lady.

What are you talking about? Hugo.

Hugo, he's harmless.

Well, guess what?

Guess what?

Hugo!

Hugo!

You're late for the shipment!

Where are you? She didn't kill the gas
station people to save herself.

She was saving Hugo.

She did it for him.

You're not going to lie to Hugo anymore.

Wow. That is... You should really call
the police right now.

Okay. Camera's off.

Let's get out of here.

No. I mean, yes.

But she's here.

Right now.

I need

to get her on camera again.

Hang on, because I've got to grab Drew
before it's too late, okay?

Drew!

Sammy, you there? Sammy?

Good boy Hugo.

Good boy.

The whereabouts of Hugo Murphy are still
unknown.

After more than a month, authorities
can't seem to figure out where the

of Linden Park has escaped to.

In the meantime, all supplies of hermit
jerky have been confiscated by

authorities. Excuse me, have you ever
tried hermit jerky? Oh, hell no.

Why would you ask me that?

I know a friend who did.

He said it was delicious, but he doesn't
talk about it anymore.

No, no, of course not.

Hermit jerky? Yeah, I have. I love that
jerky.

It's my favorite kind.

Actually, that's right here.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Get that. Get
that.
