- [Kai] I think this trip might be what you need, babe.

The semester's over.

It's time to celebrate.

- [Mia] What sort of vacation home is this place again?

- [Kai] [chuckling] Honestly, don't know much

about it other than it's a free trip

and Angel and his girl invited us.

- Angel girl?

What bimbo is it this week?

- [Kai] Be nice, babe.

She's actually not as bad as some of the other.

[phone ringing]

[phone clicking]

And I know it's not Paris or a Milan.

I just thought after the year you had

that some quiet time away would be nice.

- [Mia] Thank you.

You're right.

A change in scenery is what I need.

[crickets chirping]

[car whooshing]

How can you see anything in this fog?

- Can you turn on my defrost?

- Slow down a bit.

I can't see.

- I got this, baby.

- Kai!

[tires screeching]

- Why did you scream?

- You didn't see that thing in the middle of the road?

- No.

- It was in the middle of the road.

You just hit it.

- Hit what?

What did it look like?

Dude, you just screamed to save something's life.

What was it?

- [Mia] I don't know.

- [sighing] A squirrel?

A possum?

Deer?

- It looked big and green.

- Big and green?

Babe, no animal looks big and green.

- [Mia] I dunno.

Oh God.

- Do you think your medicine is

causing you to see things?

- What?

- You know, all those

pharmaceutical drug commercials always have like

a whole minute where they list off all the,

the, the side effects.

I don't know.

Maybe hallucinating is one of them.

- This is real.

I know what I saw.

- It's okay.

I believe you.

[Kai sighing]

[engine revving]

- What?

What?

- I think we have a flat.

- Oh God.

How far are we?

- About 20 minutes out, I think.

Luckily I know how to change a tire.

- [scoffing] You know how to change a tire.

That kind of turns me on.

- Oh yeah? [exclaiming]

[Mia laughing]

- I'll be right back.

No, stay in.

I got it.

- It's dark out.

The least I could do is hold a flashlight.

[door clicking]

[ratchet clicking]

[brush rustling]

- [Kai] Babe, I need some light.

- Sorry.

- I'm talented, but I'm not a magician.

- [Mia] Sorry.

- You can leave the, the flashlight here

and get back in the car if you want.

- I'm, I'm good.

I'm good.

How much longer?

- That's it.

[sighing] I don't think

this donut spare is gonna get us back on Monday though.

I'm gonna have to call AAA.

[brush rustling]

[crickets chirping]

- Oh my god. - Hey.

No, babe.

No.

- Oh. - Damn it.

- Oh, I'm sorry.

- The, the front camera's broken.

No, no face ID and I can't use the screen.

So how am I supposed to unlock this?

- You can unlock your phone using your watch, right?

- There's my little genius.

- Hey, Siri, call AAA.

[crickets chirping]

[ominous music]

[twig snapping]

[brush rustling]

[ominous music] [Mia gasping]

Babe, come on.

Let's go.

AAA is gonna be at the house in the morning.

[door clicking]

[door clicking]

AAA's gonna be here in the morning with a new tire.

- [Mia] I'm sorry about today.

[sighing] Let's go have fun.

- Angel's Dad let him drive the car this weekend and-

- [Mia] Oh God.

He's gonna be insufferable.

[crickets chirping]

[ominous music]

[people shouting indistinctly]

[footsteps thudding]

- They're here. [screaming]

I am all sticky.

- Oh God.

[upbeat electronic music]

[upbeat electronic music continues]

- Hey, Mia.

Good to see you.

You're here just in time.

The hot tub is ready to go.

- Great.

What's her name again?

- Vicki.

- I think this is the one.

- Hey, V fam, we are streaming live

from Lake Pearl.

Huge shout out to Antoninias for these super hot swimsuits.

- Oh, don't tell me she's one of those.

- 20% discount. - She makes more than me

and you combined with those millions of followers.

- Not everything's about money.

- Mia.

Of course you feel that way

with that [laughing] mythological studies degree.

- Ah.

- You're wasting your money on an education

that you can get for free on Wikipedia.

- That's enough.

- Yeah.

- We'll be in soon.

- I'll be up early.

- Mm-hmm.

Fuck.

[Kai sighing]

[door clicking]

[doors clicking]

[ominous music]

[intense music]

- [Mia] Mom!

[Kai sighing]

- I'm sorry.

I, I didn't know it was a lake house.

We can go if you want.

Oh shit.

The tire.

We can go first thing in the morning.

- It's okay.

- No, it's not.

Let's go.

- I can't be scared of water forever.

- [sighing] Well, we, we won't get on any boats.

We'll just, we'll stay away from it.

Okay?

- It's fine.

It's been here.

I can do this.

[Vicki shouting indistinctly]

- [Kai] He's in love apparently.

- He's horny. - Same thing.

Come here.

- Babe, not here.

Not here. [laughing]

- Don't be shy, guys.

Show us what five years in love looks like.

- [Angel] That's what's up, Kai.

Show us honeymooners how to keep that fire burning.

[all laughing]

[upbeat rock music]

- Oh no, no.

Kai, no, no suitcase on the bed.

- I need you to loosen up just a little bit, babe.

- You just dragged that through the dirt

and put all that on the bed.

- Okay.

That's fair.

[box clicking]

[box clicking]

- Good evening.

- Oh.

Who are you?

- Greetings.

Welcome to Lake Pearl.

It's truly my pleasure to host you and my family's home.

My name's Sabrina.

- Kai Oats.

- Mia Daughtry.

- Welcome to Lake Pearl.

What brings you here?

- Couldn't pass up on a free trip.

YOLO.

[Mia laughing]

- I'm sorry, what is YOLO?

- It's a saying.

You only live once.

- I see.

We would say live for today, for tomorrow may never come.

- Ah. - Same sentiment.

- Exactly.

Um, I guess we just wanted some

peace and quiet this summer.

Place seems pretty secluded.

- Good fences make the best neighbors.

- Do you have wifi?

I don't have service anywhere.

- Our wifi will be down for tonight.

Tech guys can't come till tomorrow to fix it.

However, we do have a landline in the kitchen.

- Might be good to disconnect for a day or two.

- Yeah, you're probably right.

- God is often found in seclusion and solitude.

- Right.

- Well, if you need anything, I'll be downstairs.

- Oh, you're staying in the same house?

- Oh, you won't know I'm here.

I promise.

- [laughing] I hate these Airbnbs.

- This is not an Airbnb.

- And what Backpage of the internet did you find this place?

- Actually, my family

and I used to spend every summer here.

Sabrina hasn't aged one bit.

Like how is she still this fine? [laughing]

Wait until I tell my brother about this.

- So you guys used to spend every summer here?

- We'll come every few years,

from when I was five until about 15.

- [Mia] Why'd you stop?

- I'm not sure.

I vaguely remember some sketchy shit

in the news about this area.

Or maybe my parents just got tired

of spending every summer in the same lake.

Who knows?

I'm sorry.

I know family is touchy for you.

- Oh no.

You should be able to talk about your

childhood and parents.

- And it's okay for you to still grieve.

There's no, there's no timeline for that kind of stuff.

I just want to create new memories with you,

see you smile again.

That was pretty good.

That was good.

- So it is an Airbnb.

- Potato, potato.

Hurry up and unpack.

[Mia laughing]

- No.

- Around.

- And who the hell are you?

- Call me Mr. Leonard.

I'm the groundskeeper on this property.

Okay.

You need help with your bag?

- No, I'm good.

- You sure are a pretty thing.

By the way, no, sir.

- [Vicki] Excuse me.

- Where I come from,

we show our elders a little bit of deference.

Yes sir, no sir, the whatnot.

- Well, you see where I'm from,

we keep the sirs and ma'ams, you know,

for the person cutting the check.

- Yeah, that so?

That's plain unfortunate for you.

- Well, [laughing] goodnight.

- Yeah, you too.

Good night.

Ain't no bed bugs biting that.

That's a shame.

[ominous music]

I pay my respect

and I wasn't writing you any check.

Yeah, well,

gonna be writing you a check here pretty soon, little girl.

Let's see how you and this slutty outfit like that.

Let me help you with your bag.

Mmmm.

Yeah, fuck her.

[Vicki exhaling]

- How can I cook with her crotch on the counter?

[Vicki exhaling]

- Ah.

It looks like the king

and queen finally decided to join the party.

- I'm not much of a partier.

- Obviously.

- How is the hot tub?

Hot?

- Very hot.

- Well, I'm starving,

so what are we gonna eat for dinner?

- We could do fish and chips.

- Ooh, I love night fishing.

- This lake is not known for fishing.

As many times as I've come here, I have yet to see one fish.

- You don't seem like the fishing type anyways.

- Yeah, babe, maybe they were just hiding from you.

- Whatever.

It's a known fact

that, that there's no fish in that lake.

Now that I think about it,

I rarely saw any wildlife out there.

It was always very quiet.

- Seen any green animals?

[Angel laughing]

Listen RL Stine, there's no Frankenstein out.

There might be a goon.

- Well, way way way back in my day,

this place was bustling with fish, bears,

birds, and every possible creature you can imagine.

- Well, what happened?

- Man.

Humans doing like humans do.

- Death and destruction.

- Bingo.

- But nature always gets her revenge.

- She sure does.

Well, I didn't mean to intterrupt,

but I just wanted to make sure you're all good

before I retire to my quarters for the night.

- Your place is amazing.

- Yeah.

It's very vintage and shique.

You know, I can help get the word out about this place.

My followers always love to know what I'm up to.

- Who's your service provider?

I don't have any signal anywhere.

- I don't have a signal either.

I just record for the recap.

I wait to post my location till after I leave.

You can never be too safe.

Besides one tag for me on Monday

and your whole season will be sold out.

- Trust me, she's legit.

- Well, you're too kind,

but I think I'd rather the springs remain a hidden gem.

- She's gold.

- Back to business.

What the fuck are we gonna eat if we can't fish?

- Well, I brought some packs of fish with us.

We can go out back and cook 'em over a fire.

- Rugged.

I likee, I likee.

But first let's have a little fun.

- Oh.

- That is why I love this girl.

- Yes. - Always thinking ahead.

- Shrooms.

I haven't done those since summer 2019.

- Little microdose for the hell of it? [chuckling]

- Ah, I think I'll,

I'll keep it in 2019.

- Pussy.

- Shut the fuck up.

- Hey babe, why'd you invite this square ass couple?

- Excuse me.

- Look, it's gonna be a long ass weekend.

At least we're gonna have some fun.

[upbeat music]

[water gurgling]

- Fuck it.

Give it to me.

- [Kai] Babe, no.

[upbeat music continues]

[upbeat music continues]

- Here's to a happy trip.

- Let's get out of here.

[upbeat music continues]

- You sure this is a good idea?

- You said we were here to have fun, right?

- I mean how is this gonna mix with your prescriptions?

- I guess we'll find out.

[upbeat music continues]

[Mia laughing]

[upbeat music continues]

- Hmm.

All right.

Who's got it?

- Got what?

- The scary fireside story.

This is the prime location and ambiance for one.

- I know some, real creepy, tragic ones.

- What you kids doing?

[ominous music]

Doing some kind of campfire bullshit?

- Guys, this is Mr. Leonard.

[can thudding]

- I am acquainted with your girlfriend,

and seeing that I'm a tad under-dressed

or over-dressed for this party.

Y'all about to tell ghost stories, right?

- Yeah.

- Yes, sir.

Yes we were.

- Mmm.

Yeah.

More like it'll be some lame story about a man

with a hook for a hand, right?

Some stupid story about some animal eat sheep or whatnot.

You look like you've had an alien go to town on you

more than one time.

[all laughing]

There's only one story really worth telling here,

and Andre know it.

It is a true story.

It ain't no bull story.

- I can't mess that one up, Mr. Leonard.

I know that one like the back of my hand.

- Back of your hand.

Couple hundred years ago had these folks

live right here on the edge of this lake.

They had a water god. [indistinct]

That guy in Egypt what said

that thing about water that one time.

- I am water.

- I read that somewhere.

Anyway, these is really angry folks

what live up on a hill,

took into their heads one day they wanted

the land down here for themself.

He come charging down out the hill,

stoning or swording everybody in their prime.

Wonder folk, they kind of peaceful,

they outnumbered our clan

and far back best they could.

Last hundred or 150 men,

they wound up down there with their backs

to the water, wondering why their water goddess

ain't coming to save 'em.

Finally decided what's the best way

to get the attention of a God.

They all walked into that one on their own.

Round themselves.

Every single one of them.

Meaning not every single one of them.

She come up out the water all right.

If you played some hell with those hill people.

Trouble is you drag something like that up outta hell,

it's kind of hard to control.

And once in a while they get a taste again.

You know?

Night like this.

It all wet and black.

That little breeze coming in on the lake.

I know you feel it.

Maybe she come outta here tonight.

She bite into one of y'all.

Sucked the soul right out you.

It won't even take a long time

and know you to live through it.

They only gonna wish they died.

You have a nice evening.

Don't be making stains on the cushions.

I just Scotchgarded them.

- [Angel] Take care, Mr. Leonard.

- [Mr. Leonard] You too, Andre.

- My name's Angel.

- Scared the shit out of me.

- Who's it gonna be?

Who's gonna be the sacrificial lamb?

- Oh God, - I'll do it.

Me.

- It took forever.

Like, damn.

He was the scary story.

Jesus Christ.

You know him?

Hey, it's all mental, it's all mental.

Hey, take a deep breath.

Deep breath.

[Mia breathing heavily]

It's okay, it's okay.

No.

[ominous music]

[Mia screaming]

What, what?

Hey, what, what, what?

What, hey.

It's okay.

Hey, hey, sit down.

[Mia breathing heavily]

[Mia whimpering]

[Mia breathing heavily]

- Hey, bro.

We're going for a swim in the lake.

Coming with?

- [Kai] No, I'm gonna chill here.

Make sure she's okay.

- Well, the nights that I can't remember

usually hold the best memories.

[Mia breathing heavily]

[upbeat dance music continues]

[crickets chirping]

[Vicki gasping]

- Something just touched my foot.

- It was probably just seaweed

or something.

- Seaweed in a lake?

- Fine.

It was a lakeweed.

Relax.

[water splashing]

- Did you hear that?

- You're acting a lot like Mia.

Are you sure the shrooms were okay?

- I just, I don't like this.

Can I go inside, please?

- Babe, just give me five minutes.

All I need is a rub and a tug.

Fine.

Let's go.

[water splashing]

[ominous music]

[crickets chirping]

[crickets chirping]

- If it's bothering you,

just take it off.

- Yeah.

- Just take it off for a second.

- I think my arm's just sweaty, babe.

- One second.

It's probably not healthy

to wear those things 24/7 like you do anyways.

- My watch is the only way I can use my broken phone.

Remember?

- Sorry.

[both laughing]

- Make it up to me.

There's something, [clearing throat]

there's something I've been meaning to ask you.

- Oh wait, before you start,

I just wanna say thank you for this weekend.

Sorry for tripping out earlier.

- No need to apologize.

Do you, you wanna go swimming?

[chuckling] Baby steps.

- No, I'm good but don't let me stop you.

- You sure?

- How about I sit on the rocks and watch you swim?

- Hmm.

Okay.

Deal.

[Mia laughing]

[crickets chirping]

[Kai groaning]

- Are you gonna swim with your watch on?

- It's waterproof.

[water splashing]

[laughing] Babe,

the water's the perfect temperature.

Ah.

[upbeat dance music]

[water splashing]

- Mom!

[ominous music]

Kai?

Kai?

[voice echoing]

Baby?

[bag unzipping]

[phone thudding]

[both moaning]

[hand knocking]

[hand knocking]

- [Angel] Yeah?

[door clicking]

- Have either of you seen Kai?

- I thought he was out with you.

- He disappeared.

- Are you back from your trip yet?

- I'm, I'm good.

If either of you see him can you please let him know

I'm looking for him.

- Kai is always off exploring something.

This place has so many little nooks and caves.

He'll be back.

I'm sure.

So yeah.

Do you mind?

I don't wanna lose my momentum

if you know what I mean.

Tick tock, you can fuck off now.

- Fine, fine.

[door clicking]

[both moaning]

- [Angel] I got stamina, baby, I got stamina.

[door rattling] [ominous music]

[wind whooshing]

[Mia screaming]

- My apologies.

I didn't mean to startle you.

- Oh no, no, I, I was actually just looking for you.

- Well, perfect timing.

How can I be of assistance?

Is it the phone?

That thing can be so finicky?

- Oh no, no, no.

Nothing like that.

I seem to have lost track of Kai

and I was wondering if you might know where he could be.

- You can't find him.

Well, where did you last see him?

- The lake.

He was swimming.

- Well this land has lots of history.

I'm sure he is off exploring.

- I told you, he's off being Kai.

- Maybe he's just giving you some space.

- Yeah, maybe.

- If I were you,

I would rest my eyes.

I have no doubt that once you wake,

he'll be right beside you

ready to tell you Of all the history he's uncovered.

- What sort of places do people typically

explore this late at night?

- Well, these old lands have so many nooks

and crannies to get lost in.

I wouldn't go searching for him.

Perhaps something to help you sleep?

I do have some melatonin in the cabinets.

- Yeah.

Actually that doesn't sound too bad.

- Excellent.

Why don't you wash up

and I'll place them on your nightstand.

Normally ladies run away from me.

- I'm sorry.

I thought you were my boyfriend.

- Well, we can talk later.

Prefer you buy me a drink first.

- You see anyone out here?

- No, miss.

I have not.

Just me.

- [Mia] Okay, thank you.

- Is there something I can help you with?

- No, sir.

Actually, yeah, my boyfriend's missing

and I'm starting to get really worried.

- Oh, I don't know.

He look like a big dumb kid to me.

He probably just out, just blowing all over the place.

Nooks and crannies. - Nooks and crannies

to get lost.

- Yeah, you got the brochure left on your pillow I see.

- Can you keep an eye out for him?

- Yes, ma'am.

I surely will.

I'll let you know if I see anybody.

- Okay.

Thank you, sir.

I, I really appreciate it.

- Not at all.

Mmm, uh huh.

That'll do, pig.

That'll do.

[watch buzzing]

[ominous music]

- God.

[watch buzzing]

What?

[watch buzzing]

[Mia breathing heavily]

Kai?

Kai?

Wake up.

I think Kai's in trouble.

- I'm sick of this shit.

Mia, you've gotta stop with this

on edge scared school girl act, okay?

- I think something's wrong with Kai.

- And we've all told you, he's fine.

You just refuse to have a good time wherever we go.

- Babe, that's enough.

- No.

Ever since your parents died,

we've been walking on eggshells around you.

Kai probably ran as fast as he could

to get away from your miserable ass.

- I see how you feel about me,

but I found Kai's watch

and he doesn't go anywhere without it.

- I said let it go.

If you want to go play Nancy Drew in the forest,

then he my guest.

But leave me and my woman

out of your little fantasy. - Is there a problem?

- There is no- - Yes.

- Look, I heard yelling and I just wanted to check on you.

- There's something wrong with Kai.

I found his watch and he never takes it off.

We have to call the police.

- Are you out of your mind?

- I'm sorry about her.

She's just a little on edge after all the drugs.

- Excuse me?

- Always, he will.

The authorities around here, they don't take too kindly

to drugs and psychedelics.

Are you sure you want to go down that route?

- Yes. - No.

Some of us care about our future

and don't need any sort of record fresh out of college.

- Oh, I'm not feeling very well.

- Clearly.

- Babe, why don't you go to bed?

I'll take care of it.

- What was in those pills that you gave me?

- Completely harmless.

Your standard melatonin.

Just strong enough to knock a wild toddler out.

- I got you.

[ominous music]

[voice whispering]

- Your aggression.

- Sorry about that.

That girl's just so uptight.

- I liked it.

- Oh?

- I like the big bad masculine energy.

It's quite intoxicating.

My how you've grown up.

[ominous music continues]

- You have something on your face.

- Do I?

Show me.

- [Vicki] She's knocked out.

- All right, well goodnight.

- You okay?

You look shook.

- Yeah, I'm fine.

I just need to lay down.

- Aren't you worried about Kai at all?

- Who?

Mr. Loner?

He'll pop up around here.

- Vicki, what are you doing here?

- I was actually coming to check on you.

- I'm good.

I'm going to look for Kai.

I already know what you're gonna say,

but I know Kai

and he wouldn't just run off.

Something's wrong and I intend to figure out what.

- I was actually gonna say,

let me help you.

- Thanks.

I was actually going to the car to get one of these.

- Great minds think alike.

[keys jingling]

When do you last remember seeing Kai?

- At the Cove.

- Okay, so we'll start there.

- Good idea.

Thank you, by the way.

It's really nice to have someone help.

- Well, us girl's gotta stick together, right?

I'm sorry about Angel earlier.

I've never seen him get so amped before.

It's like the vibes

of the lake are doing something to-

- I think you're right.

Something's felt off since we got here.

- Yeah. - Let's go.

[crickets chirping]

Let's go this way.

- Okay.

- You got it? - Yeah.

- Okay.

There.

That's where he took off his clothes

and jumped in the water.

- I'm sorry but it's kind of hard to believe that, you know,

he's just gallivanting in the woods in the middle

of the night with nothing but swim trunks.

- Exactly.

- Do you remember hearing anything

or seeing anyone while you guys were out here?

- No.

No, I was listening to music.

- Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

- Have you ever used one of these?

- Does it look like I've ever used one of those?

- Neither have I, but there's a first time for everything.

Slow, slow, slow. - Uh huh.

- Alright, I'm gonna hold the boat and you're gonna get in.

- Okay.

- Up against the rock and you're gonna step in.

[tense music]

- Fuck, fuck, fuck.

Okay, we're good.

We're good.

[tense music continues]

- If I remember correctly, he swam out this way.

- This water gives me the creeps.

- I thought water was life.

- Yeah.

Beautiful beach water.

Not this murky bullshit.

If you don't mind me asking,

what is your thing with water anyways.

You know, I can kind of feel the vibes.

- Um, last year my mom drowned.

I tried to save her but there was nothing I could do.

- Sick.

I'm sorry about that.

I'm sorry for being such a jerk to you earlier.

God, you must hate me.

- No, I don't.

It's so odd that there's no fish,

no, no wildlife.

How many lakes do you know like that?

- I don't know.

I don't go fishing.

- Oh my god.

[water splashing]

[ominous music]

What sort of animal could do this?

- Maybe they just fell off when he was hurrying.

[ominous music continues]

Wait, what are you doing?

- Kai's in the water.

I'm gonna find him.

- If whatever did that to his shorts is in the water,

you're gonna need like a weapon or something.

- Don't have time for this.

- Kai's been down there for hours.

[ominous music continues]

Let's just, let's go back

and help us find something to search, okay?

And Angel and I were here earlier.

We saw like an old RV

and there was a bunch of diving equipment.

I'll go with you.

- Yeah.

Okay.

The water's too dark anyways.

So we'll all go for something for help.

[water splashing]

[indistinct]

- Just searching.

That's all.

- Are you sure it's over here?

- I'm positive.

- Can't see anything through this fog.

- It's this way.

Just trust me.

[voice whispering indistinctly]

- Hello?

[voice whispering indistinctly]

Vicki?

Vicki?

Vicki?

[voice whispering indistinctly]

Vicki?

Vicki?

Vicki?

- Mia. - Vicki?

- Mia. - Oh my God.

- Mia, what happened?

- Where did you go?

- I found the trailer.

I thought you were behind me.

- I'm sorry.

I'm fine, I'm fine.

Let's just go.

Let's go.

- [Vicki] This is it.

- [Mia] How the hell did you find this place?

- [Vicki] Angel knows this land like the back of his hand.

Plus we fucked on the little couch in the RV.

- Of course.

[cans clattering]

[door creaking]

[Mia screaming]

What the hell are you doing out here?

- I'm the groundskeeper, remember?

My job is to keep the grounds.

This here my workshop.

I should be asking you girls that question.

- Her boyfriend went missing.

We were coming for some diving equipment we saw earlier.

- Oh, you come here looking for some diver's equipment

that you saw earlier

when you was here with your lover.

Right?

- You saw us.

- Oh darling, Mr. Mr. Leonard, he saw everything.

Now this diving equipment you're talking about,

I hope you're not thinking of using it to go out on

that lake right now.

I would highly recommend against it.

There's a lot of stuff out in that lake

to avoid this time of night.

- What's in the lake?

- Stuff.

Stuff ought not to be messed with.

Stuff ought stay in the lake.

- I thought everyone said that

there's no wildlife in the lake or forest around here.

- Oh there isn't.

- Then what stuff are you referring to?

- Well you see, there's a lot more things in this world

than just wildlife, trees, stuff like that.

There's some things in this world

that just kind of need their own classification.

Will you hold onto that, darling?

There you go.

Mmm.

Oh yeah.

There your suit.

- Will you help us?

My boyfriend went swimming and now he's missing.

- Oh, did he?

Well that sound about par for the course.

- What does that mean?

I mean stuff like that tend to happen around here.

Like some kind of unavoidable thing

that is, well, unavoidable.

- What's in the lake, Mr. Leonard?

- Like I said, stuff.

However, if you two have taken it into your head

that you absolutely gotta go play crabby ass

out there at this hour,

well, you are going to need a little bit more

than that flashlight, Nancy Drew.

That little bitty thing.

- Hell no.

I did not sign up for no "Hunger Games" shit.

- I like her.

She got her head screwed on right.

- With you or not, I'm gonna go find Kai.

- Oh you ain't gonna find him?

Mm-mm.

See, folks that go missing out in no water.

You can take it, I don't bite.

They seldom come back.

- I intend to be the exception to the rule.

- Oh, I know what you intend.

You let me know how that work out for you.

You just gotta jiggle the little red thing.

It'll open up, you'll find it.

Watch your step on the way out.

Please close it on your way out.

Watch your step.

I get it.

I'm used to that.

- Mia.

Mia, slow down.

For Christ sake, I'm in heels.

Mia, just because I don't wanna go in the water

does not mean I don't wanna help you find Kai.

- The lake is the only lead we have.

- Well maybe I could just take the car and drive around.

- Drive around where?

There's only forest around here.

- I don't know.

When Angel and I came up earlier,

there were so many dirt roads.

Maybe, just maybe Kai's at a nearby property.

- You and Angel sure did notice a lot when you came in.

- Well we kind of had some time to kill.

- You should check out the nearby properties

and I'll check out the lake.

- Okay.

Meet back at the car in 30?

- Vicki? - Yeah.

Thanks again.

- It's nothing.

Us girls gotta stick together.

Right?

[ominous music]

[ominous music continues]

- [Angel] Going somewhere?

- It's Mia.

She's still looking for Kai.

I figured take the car and go.

- [Angel] You know as well as I do

that there's nothing down those roads for at least 10 miles.

- I know, but peace of mind.

[Angel sighing]

- Before you go, get me right.

- Babe, now's not the time.

- Are you serious?

Get out.

- Babe.

- I said get out.

[door slamming] - Jesus.

Can I help you?

- I got a message the shower wasn't working.

- It was working just fine for me earlier.

Maybe it's Angel.

He's in there asleep,

but you can check it out.

- Well if this is a bad time, I can come by later.

- Well how long is it gonna take?

- Well that old thing just needs a good hand, right?

- Well you can go in,

just don't wake him.

He's in a grumpy mood.

- I'll be quiet as a mouse.

Going somewhere?

- Yeah.

I just wanna clear my head.

- Understood.

Some advice from a native.

- Sure.

What?

- Make your first right.

You'll see the most perfect view of the lake.

- Thanks.

Oh, sorry, I thought you were Vicki.

- I told Victoria my shower wasn't working.

She said it was all right if I used yours.

She said you wouldn't mind.

- Really?

Did she?

- She said you were sleeping and to be careful

because you can get frisky when you wake.

- Yeah, I'm feeling frisky indeed.

- Would you mind helping me

reach those hard to reach places?

- With what should I reach?

- [Sabrina] Give me your hand.

- I can do a whole lot more than that.

- That's not Kai's phone.

- What is Kai's phone doing in your bag?

- Look, I know what this looks like,

but you're gonna have to trust me.

- Answer the question, Vicki.

- There's something else going on here.

- What is his phone doing in your bag?

- I don't know.

I don't know how his phone ended up in my bag.

Okay?

- Where is the car?

- That's what I came back to explain.

- You took the only working car to go search

for Kai and now that's gone.

- That woman, Sabrina, she told me where I might be able

to find him and the road she sent me down,

there was some sharp in there.

I don't know, the tires just burst.

I had to walk back.

- That's convenient.

Now we're trapped here with no car and no cell service.

- I'm telling you, it's the old hag.

She was lurking in my room right before I left.

- Why would she put his phone at the bottom of your bag?

- Because of this moment right here.

Mia, she wants to divide us up.

- Where is Angel?

- I don't know.

But we can look for Angel and Kai together.

We can not split up.

We have to stick together, Mia.

- Yeah, yeah, you're right.

We can use the kitchen line to call for help.

- Okay, that sounds good.

[Vicki sighing]

- [Operator] Emergency services.

How may I help you?

- Yes, my boyfriend, friends,

and I at the Lake Pearl Inn.

My boyfriend's missing- - Emergency services.

How may I help you?

Emergency services. - Yes.

Can you hear me?

Hello? - You will all die tonight.

One move, one sound and I will jam this up your throat.

- All right.

- Now tell me what the fuck

is going on around here.

- Well, since you asked so nicely,

but not here, this lake out here.

Won't mind if we go to my place?

- Lead the way. - Just up the hill there.

[dramatic music]

You know, you don't gotta use that.

I'm on your side.

- Didn't seem that way.

What were you dumping in the lake?

- Well now that a long story

I can't make short.

I'm over here.

- [Mia] Don't try anything funny.

- [Mr. Leonard] Why would I do that?

Like I told you, I'm on your side.

- [Mia] And which side's that?

- [Mr. Leonard] The only side.

[door clicking]

[cans clattering]

- Tell me what the hell is going on.

- Yeah, let me just,

nah, [coughing] I guess there really ain't

much point taking these no more.

[coughing] Why don't you have a sit down there.

I think we got a little bit of time before the next phase.

[Mr. Leonard sighing]

I'll just light a cigarette here.

- Enough games.

- Ha.

Don't do me any favors.

You won't hit me right now, but you pull that trigger,

I guarantee y'all be dead before the sun come up.

I'm no mathematician,

but I figure if you listen to me, you got about a,

I don't know, 10% chance of living through the night.

Yeah, you're a smart girl.

Listen, my family,

we've been caretakers at Lake Pearl Inn

property for generations.

It is part of our duty that I call it in.

It's a, it's a family curse.

We gotta work for the goon.

- The goon?

The water goddess legend you were telling us about?

- Water goddess.

She a monster.

- I know you told us the legend earlier.

- Now the story is true,

all of it, but there is a piece

of important information I always leave out when I tell it.

- And what's that?

- All them years ago when all them men

had their back against that water,

that going be right here on this piece of land.

The goon didn't exist.

She was just a, a water spirit.

You know, kind of a source of energy and whatnot.

It took the sacrifice of 100, 150 men

to get her to walk up out that water in corporeal form.

You hear?

- That's a cute story, but how does that help me here?

- I am getting to it.

I just need to catch my breath.

The point is [lighter clicking]

that without the sacrifice, there is no goon.

You see?

So years ago the local news,

some of you internet watchdog influencers,

they kinda got wind of what was happening down here,

left us some pretty bad reviews on Yelp.

Anyway, kind of shut our operation down for a bit.

She ain't had a sacrifice in over 15 years.

If she don't get a sacrifice tonight,

she'll return to her water form forever.

- I assure you, I have no intention

of sacrificing myself to that fish bitch.

- She don't care about your skinny ass, girl.

But your boyfriend, [coughing]

he not going be so lucky.

- Kai would never.

- "Kai would never."

Nobody ever would.

But extreme torture,

that make people do crazy things.

- Human torture.

- She got away

with getting men down the edge of that water.

- And why would she spare you?

- Were you not listening to the whole family curse thing

two minutes ago? [coughing]

My ancestor, great-great grandfather, whatever,

he was that last man alive

when she come up out the water,

and he was the first one

to go down to his knee

and bow to her, bow to the goon.

Goddesses being what they are,

she kind of dug that.

She let him live,

but he got the bow.

From then on him and all his descendants,

they work for her now.

So all these generations,

we have been doing her dirty work for her.

Pulling the grass,

inviting the guests,

burying the bodies.

That all stops tonight with me.

[lighter clicking]

Many years ago, I made sure there wouldn't be

anymore Mr. Leonards.

[clippers snipping]

That bloodline's done.

Meet here tonight.

What I need to know from you...

[Mr. Leonard groaning]

My father, he read up some things about the goon.

Apparently this is the only thing that can kill her,

but I gotta get her when she in the water in goddess form.

See?

So what I need from you,

you just gotta keep her preoccupied for a minute

or two till I can get this all up in her.

All right?

- How?

[footsteps thudding]

- You need to hide right quick.

She coming.

I have room back there.

[cans clattering]

[tense music]

[lighter clicking]

- Leonard. - [coughing] Yes ma'am.

- Did you harvest the eggs?

- Of course I did.

When am I not?

- Good.

[lighter clicking]

- Shall be ready to hatch next season?

- Yes, they will be.

[lighter clicking]

- Seems you've had company.

- Yeah, them brats.

They've been stalking

around here since they showed up.

- I've since made waste of one girl.

- I hardly think that other one gonna be much of a match-

- You dare suggest otherwise.

- No ma'am.

I apologize.

I didn't mean any disrespect by that.

How can I help you, goddess?

[cans clattering]

- You live in fifth.

- I apologize.

My fault. [coughing]

Oh, I apologize.

That's pretty nasty.

I'm sorry you had to see that.

[dramatic music]

- It appears I shall need a new groundskeeper very soon.

- Yeah, pretty likely.

How about one, one of the boys up there?

You think they'd be a suitable replacement?

- I haven't had the ritual in many years.

- Yeah, that local news,

they did a job on us.

That's for sure.

- I can't afford to lose another sacrificial soul.

My earthly powers are waining.

Two men should sustain my powers

for getting longer.

- Yes.

- This would do nicely.

[can clattering]

[cans clattering]

[Mr. Leonard coughing]

I shall see you at the lake before dawn.

- As you wish, goddess.

[door clicking]

[door slamming]

[ominous music]

You need to get out of here quick.

We don't got much time.

- Where is he?

- He's in the garage.

- The garage?

I checked in there.

He's been in there this whole time?

- Got a secret room in the back to the left

you walk in.

Remember, [coughing]

I just need a couple minutes

you keeping her busy.

I take care of the rest.

Now go on, get outta here.

And please remember to shut the...

Oh fuck my life. [coughing]

[Mia sobbing]

I have your watch.

[ominous music]

[Sabrina grunting]

[ominous music]

- Two is company.

Three, three is a crowd.

I debated heavily whether or not to outright kill you.

I surmise that you have a very strong will,

and a strong will makes for a great sacrifice.

[electricity crackling]

[Mia grunting]

[Mia groaning]

This one loves you as only a fool would.

He's been crying "Mia" all night.

[Mia screaming] [electricity crackling]

Why are you doing this to us?

Stop.

[electricity crackling] [Mia screaming]

- I suppose we have time.

Sacrifice is an important tool.

The balance.

For without it, we are merely immortal energy sources.

Each sacrifice makes you stronger

and more than just energy.

This holds the power of the first tribute

the tribes of Pearl gifted me.

- Tribes?

- They were the kind folks

who lived in this land.

I was their water goddess.

They kept their lakes clean and full of fish.

I appeared to them as a beam of light

or a kiss of wind on their cheek.

- I know the story.

The war.

- Their war drove out all the wildlife.

It poisoned the land.

Like you said, nature always gets her revenge.

That sacrifice,

those souls bound to the mortal were,

and goddess in the physical realm,

is a mortal being.

And that sacrifice granted me power

that lasted hundreds of years.

But as the years went on, the days of old faded

and the sacrifices stopped.

Mortality weakens.

So I had to get a little bit more creative.

[Kai groaning]

- Stop! [electricity crackling]

Stop, you crazy bitch!

- I've tried, unsuccessfully, of course,

to sustain my power in other ways,

but what can not be cured must be endured.

And this is the only way.

- How is any of this gonna make us sacrifice

our lives to you?

- Sacrifice is born out of love or fear.

[electricity crackling]

And if I cannot make you love me,

I will make you fear me,

and I will torture you till you choose death.

- We'll never choose death.

[electricity crackling]

No!

[Angel gasping]

[ominous music]

- I'll do it.

- No. - I'll do it.

- You should have spoken for yourself.

- Angel, don't, please.

I'll get us outta here.

I promise.

- Your will is admirable.

Your soul will taste the sweetest.

Say it again.

- Please, just kill me.

- Well, you have to kill yourself for it to work.

Do you vow to do it in my name?

[electricity crackling] [Angel groaning]

- Yes, anything.

I'll do it.

Just please make it stop.

- Perfection.

- Angel, don't give your life

to this crazy bitch!

Here, you're gonna need this too.

[ominous music continues]

[Sabrina gasping]

[Sabrina breathing heavily]

- [Sabrina] Are you ready?

- Yes.

- No, Angel, stop.

- Silence her, Leonard. - Gladly, Mrs.

[ominous music continues]

[punch thudding]

- Hello again.

Hello, lady.

You well enough to finish this job?

I got one left.

There's a knife behind that white rock,

behind this over here.

You gonna have to stab her

while she in water form.

All right?

I'm done.

[dramatic music]

[chains clacking]

- Now repeat after me.

I, Angel Parrish-

- I, Angel Parrish-

- [Sabrina] Sacrifice myself-

- Sacrifice myself-

- To the water goddess.

[chains clanking]

- Sacrifice myself to the water goddess.

- Now walk into the lake.

[Angel sobbing]

[dramatic music continues]

- Stop.

[water splashing]

[ominous music]

[voices whispering]

- I can feel his life force leave his body

and join mine.

[Mr. Leonard coughing]

- That can't be good. [groaning]

Absolutely. [lighter clicking]

I should have picked one up at the 7-Eleven.

[voice whispering]

[Sabrina gasping]

- You're next. - Mia.

Mia. - Mia is gone.

[punch thudding]

And it's not about her.

It's about me.

- Mrs., please, we gotta sacrifice

we need to get going.

- Oh yes.

Now repeat after me.

I, Kai Oats-

- I, Kai Oats-

- Sacrifice myself-

Say it or I'll kill you slowly.

[Sabrina gasping]

[dramatic music]

[Mia breathing heavily]

[dramatic music continues]

Silly mortal.

[knife thudding]

[Mia grunting]

As delicious as your sacrifice would've been,

it appears I need a new groundskeeper.

You and your future generations

will serve my will until the end of time.

- [Mia] I will never allow that to happen.

- Once I have my final sacrifice, it won't be your choice.

[Mia grunting]

[Mia grunting]

[ominous music]

[bone snapping] [Mia screaming]
