Original subtitles

-[Boyd] Previously on From... -You feel it? You do?

When I walked inside the ruins, I think I went somewhere.

You're a Storywalker.

But you can't change a story once it's been told.

Me and Jade,

we tried to save those children and set them free.

We've come back over and over again

because we failed the first time.

Knowledge comes with a cost.

[gasping]

[Tabitha] Where's your father?

He's not back yet.

-Wasn't he with you? -Yeah.

We just got separated.

[tires squealing]

[indistinct chattering]

Sir, can you hear me?

-Dad! -[Boyd] Okay. Come on, kiddo.

-Dad! -[Boyd] He's okay.

[Jade] We need to tell people.

We have no idea what happened out there.

We don't even know if it's true.

-You, me, Jim-- -Jim's not home.

Put that down. She's here to help.

Sara took his eye out with a screwdriver.

-Can you stitch him up? -[Acosta] I got you.

Once the baby was born, we were supposed to go home.

That's okay. We got you. I got you.

You think you're some kind of hero?

What you did to that kid up there,

you're a fucking monster.

[exhales heavily]

You played a very special role

in a very important story.

I couldn't come to them as I was.

[groans]

Not with everything they learned.

Are you all right?

I'm lost.

[gasping]

[tires squealing]

I'm sorry you won't be here to see what comes next.

It's always my favorite part.

This is when they tear themselves apart.

[muffled choking]

Hey, Sophia?

Sophia?

[weeping hysterically]

[weeping]

No. No, no, no, no, no.

Sophia!

[weeping hysterically]

Hey, hey.

Hey. Okay. Come back inside. Okay?

-No, I can't. -We need to get back inside!

I can't go back in there, please.

Kenny?

Okay. Get inside!

Hey! Hey!

-[door locking] -What'd I tell you?

I told you, you don't go outside! I told you!

He's dead.

What?

My-- My father died.

-[sobbing] -Oh.

[sobbing]

Okay, okay. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. But okay.

Okay, I didn't-- you don't go outside, okay?

I didn't mean to. I just...

I'm sorry.

Hey, what's going on?

-[sobbing] He's gone. -It's okay, it's okay.

I don't know what now. He's gone.

-[sobbing] -[Kenny] Shh, shh, shh.

[sobbing continues]

[Kenny] I'm sorry, but you don't go outside, okay?

We're gonna take care of you now, okay?

[sobbing]

[door opens]

Boyd?

Uh...

would you step back inside for a minute?

[Elgin stammers]

What I'm about to say is not for me.

It's for everyone here.

If people find out what happened,

if people find out what you did,

what we did...

that's the kind of thing

that could tear this place apart.

And I can't let that happen.

So, if anybody asks,

and they will ask...

you're gonna tell them that you lost your eye

trying to help Fatima.

And if I don't?

[thudding]

Then I will tell everyone that you killed Tillie.

And then, I'ma put you in the box.

You understand what that means, right?

Right?

Good.

They're gonna find out.

One way or another,

the truth always comes out.

Well, if I was you... I would make sure it doesn't.

No, God, no.

Oh, God.

Oh, God. [breathing shakily]

No, no, no, no.

No, no, no, no.

-No, no... -What's that?

-Mom, what is that? -Hey.

-Inside! -No, Mom! What is that?!

-What's in the bag? -I don't know.

-What happened? -Nothing. It's okay.

Mom!

Ethan! Come on!

Ethan! No, no, no, no, no! Ethan!

-Ethan! No, no, no, whoa! -Is that my dad?

-Hey, no. -Is my dad in there?

Hey, everything's okay.

-[Boyd] Hey, look... -Mom?

-Okay? Everything is okay. -You shouldn't be here, honey.

[Ethan] It's not him, right? It's not him!

Hey, hey, hey, hey. Listen to me, okay?

You're gonna go--

You're gonna go with your sister.

You're gonna go down to the barn, okay?

You're gonna check on the animals.

-No, no! -Yes. Please, please, Julie.

-It's not him, right? -Listen...

-[Ethan] It's not him. -...Listen to me.

-Julie, please. -No.

I need you to go out to the barn with Ethan.

I need you to be brave.

Can you do that?

Okay. Take him. Okay.

[Boyd] Just try to breathe. Look at me.

Ethan, we're gonna go for a walk.

It's not him! We'll go find him, right?

It's okay, it's okay. Come on. Come on, please.

-We'll find him! Right? -Come on.

[breathing heavily] Tabitha.

-Oh, my God, Boyd. -Tabitha.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

[exhaling sharply] Get it down.

[Boyd] Okay.

Just... Hey, Jade.

It's not him, right? We need to go find him.

Julie?

We're gonna find him, right?

We're gonna find him.

You promise?

Okay.

[grunts]

-[Jade] I got it. -[Boyd] Okay.

[tense music plays]

[Boyd] Nice and easy.

Okay.

Why? [sobbing]

[sniffling]

[breathing shakily]

[sniffling]

Thank you.

Yeah. Uh, of course.

[sniffling] What happens now?

Um...

Well, I'll-- I'll talk to Boyd about a burial.

Who's Boyd?

He's the sheriff.

He's the one that helped get you out of the car.

He seemed kind.

He is. He is. He's, uh...

He's kinda the thing that holds this whole place together.

[breathing shakily]

Hey, if you want,

we could take a walk down into town.

You know, I could show you around a little bit,

and, uh... maybe get you a spare set of glasses

from the storage room.

I'd like that very much, thank you.

[sniffling]

Okay.

[Ethan] I hate it here!

I hate this place!

-I don't wanna be here anymore! -Hey! Ethan! Ethan!

You need to stop, okay?

What did you do? Why didn't he come home?

I did nothing!

You're lying! You're a liar!

You guys always fight!

I want Dad! I hate it here! And I hate you!

Please...

We didn't fight!

It doesn't matter.

[sobbing]

I'm... [sobbing]

-[Boyd] You got it? -[Jade] Yeah, I got it.

One sec.

[Boyd grunting]

[grunts]

I'm gonna go check on Tabitha and the kids.

-I'm good. -[Jade] Okay.

Dad.

I'm gonna need some help.

Okay?

Yeah, okay.

Okay.

[mournful music plays]

[Jade] Up.

[Boyd] All right?

[grunting]

It's okay.

[grunting]

All good?

All the way to the end.

[grunting]

We need to clean him up before Tabitha and the kids see him.

[Boyd] Yeah.

"Knowledge comes at a cost."

The fuck does that even mean?

We need to talk.

Sara?

Sara, what's...?

What's going on?

They found Jim in the barn this morning.

Is he, um...

Uh...

Um... [clears throat]

I'm gonna-- I'm gonna need you to head back up to the clinic.

But-- But you said we'd get new glasses.

Are you going to the storage room?

Yeah.

Uh...

I can take her.

No. Um...

You're Sophia, right?

I'm Sara.

I used to work at the diner.

I know where all of the good stuff is.

[stammers] Okay. Yeah.

I know you two were close.

I'm sorry.

Come on.

[pensive music plays]

[Jade] The children,

the seven kids, they kept saying this...

word, over and over again: "Anghkooey."

[Boyd] Okay.

When we played the song at the tree,

it was like something... unlocked,

and we finally understood.

Anghkooey...

...it means 'remember',

and we did.

"Knowledge comes at a cost"?

That's why they wrote it.

They killed Jim because of us.

"If we push too hard, something would push back."

What's that?

Something Sara said once. We were out in the woods.

Her brother, he had a theory about this place.

He didn't think looking for answers was a good idea.

[exhales]

So, what do we do now?

Assuming you're right, that you and Tabitha

have been coming back here over and over and over,

that these kids keep calling you back to help them,

how do we do it?

I mean, how do you even begin to save something that's...

already dead?

I don't know.

I'm working on it.

Yeah.

Work harder.

Come on.

[door opens]

[door closes]

[door closes]

-Give me a second. -Mm-hmm.

Hey.

Are you all right?

We're not friends.

Don't talk to me like we're friends.

Okay.

It's right through here. Come on.

Ethan?

[thoughtful music plays]

Julie?

Where's my mom?

Uh, she'll be back.

She just had to, uh, step out for a minute.

Can I get you something?

I'm going for a walk.

I want someone to go with you.

It's the middle of the day, Donna.

I'll be fine. I-I just need to...

Okay.

Uh, Ethan's asleep.

[Donna] Julie?

If you need anything...

you just ask me, okay?

Randall?

[exhaling sharply]

Randall!

What the hell do you want?

[breathing shakily]

Hey, what happened?

My dad is...

[exhaling sharply] Jesus Christ.

Hey, look, I'm-- I'm sorry.

No, don't, don't.

I need your help.

Yeah. Okay.

I need you to come back to the ruins with me.

Why?

Because I'm gonna save him.

[Randall] Julie?

[indistinct muttering]

[door opens]

Tabitha?

[breathing shakily]

Get out.

-No, listen, please, I just-- -I said get out!

This means it's real.

The memories,

everything they showed us,

it's real.

It is real.

I don't give a shit.

Do you understand? I don't fucking care.

Look, I can't even imagine what you're going through.

I know you don't want to hear this right now,

but what they did,

this message,

I think they're doing it to stop us from digging further.

They're trying to make us afraid.

Well, then, it worked...

...because I'm fucking terrified.

My husband's dead.

Do you understand?

My husband's dead.

You have to think about your children now.

[scoffs]

Know what?

Fuck you.

Fuck you!

What do you know? Huh?

What do you know?

Do you wanna go back to the Bottle Tree

and play your stupid violin?

Because you've got nothing to lose.

Because you don't give a shit about anybody but yourself.

That is not true.

It should have been you...

hanging from the fucking rafter.

It should have been you.

Fuck it.

[engine revving]

Hey!

Fuck.

Hey, hey! Whoa!

Turn it off!

Fuck!

Turn off the engine and get out of the ambulance.

No, look! Don't!

Babe!

Are you insane? Get the fuck outta the ambulance!

You wanna go for a ride? I'm coming with you.

-Jesus Christ! -It's okay. It's okay.

-Get out, Kristi. -It's okay.

Fine.

[Marielle] Hey! Stop!

Kenny.

I, uh, heard about Jim.

Yeah.

They left us a message this time? That's new.

Yeah. Jade has a theory about that.

Sure. Everybody's got a theory.

No, there might be something to this one.

Boyd!

Kristi's in trouble.

-What? -Acosta took the ambulance.

She's got Kristi inside.

[Marielle breathing heavily]

A tad big.

Okay. Um...

Oh, no. Those do not work.

How about these?

Those look good.

So, um... it's so sad.

All these-- All these things, they, uh--

they belonged to people that were trapped here?

Yeah.

I wonder who these belonged to.

Um, it's kind of nice though.

I mean, there's a part of them that's still here,

a part that's...

-[string twanging] -...not forgotten.

I've never really thought of it that way.

[gasps]

What happened this morning to that man?

Does that sort of thing happen a lot?

It never used to.

For a long time, after Boyd found the talismans,

things were...

It happens a lot more often now.

I'm sorry.

I-- I shouldn't have said that.

It's-- it's okay.

It's important to be honest about things.

Um, my dad used to always say that.

Do you have family here?

No.

Not anymore.

[exhaling sharply]

Uh, you must be hungry. We should get some food.

Yeah, I am. I'm-- I'm starving.

Come on.

[ominous music plays]

[engine revving]

What the fuck?

[vehicle accelerating]

Here they come. Look.

[engine revving]

Hey! Hey! Wait! Wait!

What's going on?

Acosta's got Kristi in the ambulance!

Where the fuck are they going?

[woman] What are they doing?

-[Boyd] Goddamn it, Acosta. -[Donna] What the hell?

[Boyd] All right.

So, everyone says there's no way out, right?

You just go round and round. Well, I didn't.

The night I got here, we drove in, we stopped in the road,

and then everything just... it all fucking exploded,

and then I took all of you at your word.

Why should I believe a single thing you people say?

Look, is this about Elgin? Look, you need to understand--

No, I don't need to understand shit, all right?

[sighs] Fuck, you're a doctor!

You're supposed to help people. You're really okay with that?

Oh, I'm not okay with any of this.

And you're a cop,

and what you're doing is gonna get people hurt.

No. What I'm doing is getting out,

right fucking now.

[engine revving]

[Randall] Julie.

Julie, slow down. Slow down.

So, what? We step inside the ruins, and then what?

I mean, walk through time?

Ethan called it Storywalking.

Okay, great. That doesn't make it any fucking better!

-Look, Julie, stop! You can't-- -What?

Like, what happened...

with your dad,

what you're going through right now...

Hey, you gotta take a breath.

And what?

What do I do then? Huh?

I am telling you,

when I walked into those ruins, I went somewhere.

Okay? And if I did it once, I can do it again.

Even if there is the slightest fucking chance,

I have to try. Please.

Just tell me what you need me to do.

[door creaking]

[breathing unsteadily]

Why didn't you come home, Jim?

[sniffling]

I was waiting for you.

Why didn't you come home?

I'm so angry at you.

All night, I thought about

what I wish I'd said to you in the woods.

[sniffling]

I thought about the fact that...

I have loved you since the first moment I saw you.

There's been so much fighting and so much pain.

[sniffling]

You were still my person.

You were my everything,

and I'm so afraid you didn't know that.

How am I supposed to do this without you here?

[sniffling] We're gonna be okay.

Julie and Ethan...

I don't know how,

but I'm gonna find a way to take care of them,

to keep them safe.

You don't have to be afraid.

[sniffling]

I love you, Jim.

Goodbye.

Just-- Oh, here we go.

Hey, get-- get out of the way.

Hey, stop!

Slow down.

Stop!

Slow dow-- slow down!

Stop! Stop!

Hey, Acosta!

[whooshing]

Fuck! You're going way too fucking fast right now!

We've been through town twice. What more do you need to see?

There's gotta be a way! I'm not gonna just sit around

and wait for those things to pick us off one by one.

You guys just hang your rocks at night.

You pretend you're safe, thinking that Sheriff Boyd

is gonna what, somehow save you?

Let me tell you something, Boyd?

Boyd doesn't know what he's doing.

None of you people know what the fuck you're doing.

But you do?

Yeah, well, at least I'm trying.

-That was a lot faster. -Yeah, that's the pattern.

If she's looking for a way out,

she's just gonna get more and more...

-What do we do? -Get the strip.

Yeah.

Victor?

You in here?

[Victor] You shouldn't have come here.

Hey, I, uh...

[stammering] I heard about Jim.

I'm sorry.

You shouldn't-- you shouldn't have come here.

You should never have come to this place.

Uh...

Have you gone to see, uh, Ethan yet?

-No! -No? No, okay.

No. I can't.

You can't?

Well, Victor, he's-- he's your friend,

and-- and he needs you, so when you're ready...

No. Those words on the wall...

The words, sure, yeah.

You see, it takes everything good.

It takes everything... everything good away.

And then, what if-- what if t takes you next time?

Me? What? I'm not going anywhere.

No, no!

You don't know that.

No.

You don't know that.

Okay.

So, you just shouldn't have come.

[stammering]

You shouldn't have come to this place.

You should never have-- never have come.

Hey, hey, hey, hey. Listen.

No one should have come to this place.

Hey, right? None of us.

But, you know, we're here, you and me,

and we're together.

I'll take that any day of the week,

no matter what gets written on the-- on the walls.

We-- we face this together.

Okay? Okay?

So, you just... walk inside?

Yeah.

And then what?

Then I find my dad.

You go first.

What?

Just walk inside.

-Why? -Will you just do it, please?

[ominous music plays]

What's supposed to happen?

Nothing.

I-- I-- I just had to make sure that the same thing

wasn't going to happen to you when you come in to get me.

Come back.

Look, look,

I need you to give me some time before you pull me out.

Okay? Even if it looks bad.

What do you mean "if it looks bad"?

-Julie, what's gonna happen? -Promise me?

Please.

Okay, fine.

You have to promise.

-Promise! -All right, yes.

-I promise. -Okay.

[ominous music plays]

[creature screaming]

[creature screaming]

Dad!

[Boyd] Well, you guys, let's get out of here. Go!

Go! Go!

[gun firing]

[gun firing]

Dad!

[groans]

[straining]

Get off of me!

But I want to play.

[grunting]

Come on. Come on.

Randall!

Randall, pull me out!

There's no one here to help you.

No!

[screeching]

[screams]

I got you. I got you.

No, no, no, no, no!

Hey, hey, hey. Shh. Shh. Look at me. Look at me.

Look at me. Breathe. You're okay.

I saw him. Oh, Randall!

Oh, my God! I saw him! I saw him and...

-I have to go back! -No, no, stop.

No, no, no. Hey, stop, stop, stop.

-I've got you. -[sobbing]

-I have to go back! -I know.

Ethan?

Ethan, can I come in?

Ethan?

[ominous music plays]

Donna?

Ethan's not up there.

What? I was here the whole time.

Ethan!

Tabitha, he was upstairs!

Ethan!

Ethan!

-Perfect. You got it? -Yeah.

Hey, she's gonna be okay.

My mom, she, uh...

she always believed in hell.

But you know what I think?

I think hell is for people

who think that they deserve to suffer, and I don't.

I'm a good person, and I don't deserve be here.

None of us deserve to be here.

I don't know that. I don't.

I don't know a single thing about you people.

And, you know, maybe the real reason that you don't try harder

is that, deep down, you think that you deserve to be here.

The real reason we don't try harder is because,

every time we do, someone fucking dies.

Do you know how many people I've known

who thought they knew exactly what this place is,

how many theories I've listened to on why we're all here,

or brilliant ideas of how to get out?

You wanna know what they all have in common?

They're all fucking dead.

There is no way out. Do you understand that?

No! Okay? There's a way!

There's a way! There's always a way.

Ethan.

Okay, pull over.

He's fine.

He's a fucking kid in the woods whose father just died.

Pull over.

No, no, no, no, no.

-Hey. Come on, Marielle. -Okay.

Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.

Fuck.

[tires screeching]

-Stop! -[tires screeching]

[Marielle] Kristi!

Are you okay?

Hey! You get the fuck out of the car!

Get the fuck out!

-[Kenny] Hey, you good? -Ow. Yeah.

What the fuck is wrong with you? Huh?

You could've killed somebody, you know that? Turn around.

Fucking driving like a crazy fucking person out here.

Huh? Answer me!

Boyd!

[Boyd] Let's go. Let's go.

-[Kristi] Ethan. -What?

Ethan. He was walking on the road.

-[Boyd] What? -Yeah.

Dad?

Ethan.

[exhaling sharply]

What are you doing out here?

I came to get the radio.

[exhaling sharply]

It's broken.

I thought maybe I could send Thomas a message,

the real Thomas,

that he should look for you so you wouldn't be alone.

What's wrong?

Everything's okay.

Do you remember what I told you

last time we were here at the RV?

That when bad things happen,

we have to look after each other and always do our best?

That's right.

And your mom and your sister,

they need that from you now, more than ever.

You're not staying, are you?

I wish that I could.

Dad, what's happening?

[emotional music plays]

I need you to do something very important.

The night we arrived here,

when we crashed the RV and we were trapped inside...

you had a dream.

Do you remember what you dreamt about?

Lake of Tears?

That's right.

Do you know why?

It's here, and I need you to find it.

Why can't we find it together?

-[Tabitha] Ethan! -[gasps]

[Tabitha] Ethan!

Dad?

Dad, where are you?

-Ethan! -Dad, come back!

-Dad, please come back! -Ethan, Ethan!

Oh, baby. Why are you here? I was so worried.

I saw Dad. He was right here.

Oh, my baby.
