PREVIOUSLY ON "THE WHISPERS"...

Lena: DRILL, I WANT YOU
TO LEAVE MY DAUGHTER ALONE.

I'LL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES.

DRILL SAID HE WANTS
SOMETHING FROM YOU.

MAYBE YOU CAN MAKE
A DEAL.

I LIVED WITH THIS THING
IN MY HEAD FOR THREE MONTHS.

WHAT DOES IT WANT?
TO DESTROY US, SIR.

[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLES ]
IT'S DRILL. HE'S HERE.

WES, WE CAN END THIS,
GET RID OF DRILL FOR GOOD.

[ EXPLOSION ]

TAKE MY CAR.
YOU RUN. GO.

CLAIRE BENNIGAN
WAS RESPONSIBLE.

Bennigan's son --
I want him in our custody.

ARE YOU SURE MY MOM'S
GONNA BE THERE?

DON'T WORRY, HENRY.
IT SHOULD BE JUST UP AHEAD.

[ CAR DOORS CLOSE ]

I'M RIGHT HERE, SWEETHEART.
HEY.

LOOK, I CAN EXPLAIN.
[ GRUNTS ]

OHH.

[ COUGHS, GROANS ]

WHAT THE HELL
WERE YOU THINKING?

I WAS THINKING ABOUT
MY COUNTRY, SIR.
NO, NO, NO,
DON'T PLAY THE PATRIOT, SON.

YOU AIDED AND ABETTED
SOMEONE WHO'S --
WHAT SEAN AND CLAIRE DID --

WAS TREASON, WES.

AND WHEN WE FIND 'EM,

THEY WILL BE PUNISHED
ACCORDINGLY.

NO, YOU WON'T, SIR.

YOU ORDERED AN FBI AGENT
TO KIDNAP THEIR SON.

NOW IS THAT HOW WE'RE DOING
THINGS THESE DAYS?

BECAUSE I'M SURE
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

WILL BE INTERESTED TO KNOW

THAT THAT'S HOW
YOU'RE RUNNING THINGS.

EASY. YOU'RE OUT OF
YOUR DEPTH HERE.
AND WHY STOP THERE?

MAYBE IT'S TIME TO GO PUBLIC
WITH EVERYTHING --

THE MELTDOWN, THE ROCK,

THE ALIEN MANIPULATING
OUR CHILDREN.

EVERYTHING THAT
WE HAVE KEPT SECRET

IN THE NAME OF
NATIONAL SECURITY

WHILE EVERY DAY
WE'RE BECOMING LESS SECURE.

YOU'RE NOT THAT GUY, WES.

NO.

I CAN BE IF I HAVE TO.

SIR, I KNOW THIS DIDN'T GO DOWN
THE WAY YOU PLANNED IT,

BUT LOOK AT THE RESULTS.

WE HAVE ILLUMINATED A VERY REAL,
VERY IMMINENT THREAT.

HOW DO YOU CONFIRM THE DEATH
OF SOMETHING YOU CANNOT SEE?

DRILL IS
AN ELECTRICAL ENTITY.

WE SET OFF AN E.M.P.
WHILE HE WAS IN THE ROOM.

MY TEAM HAS NOT EVEN FOUND
ONE SHRED OF ELECTRICAL ENERGY.

NOW IF I MAY BE SO BOLD, SIR,
DEPENDING ON HOW YOU PLAY THIS,

I JUST HANDED YOU
THE PRESIDENCY.

MAKE SURE THIS PLACE
IS CLEANED UP.

DO WE HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING
ABOUT SEAN AND CLAIRE BENNIGAN?

I'LL LET YOU KNOW
WHAT I DECIDE.

[ CAR DOOR CLOSES ]

WHY'D YOU DO IT?

LOOK, ALL THE SECRETARY WANTED
WAS UPDATES ON OUR CASE.

IF ALL HE WANTED
WAS UPDATES ON OUR CASE,

HE WOULDN'T HAVE ASKED YOU
TO SPY ON YOUR PARTNER.

HOW COULD YOU JUST --
HOW COULD I WHAT?

FOLLOW A DIRECT ORDER?
OBEY CHAIN OF COMMAND?

SO WHY STOP NOW?

THERE'S SOME THINGS
YOU DON'T ASK A MAN TO DO.

OKAY, SO WHAT NOW?

THREE OF US GET IN THAT CAR,

LAY LOW UNTIL WES
CAN CLEAR THE AIR.

BUT WHAT ABOUT DRILL?

HENRY, DRILL'S GONE,
SWEETHEART.

NO, HE'S NOT.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

RIGHT BEFORE MR. ROLLINS
CAME TO PICK ME UP,

DRILL CAME OVER.

HE WANTED TO TALK.

TALK ABOUT WHAT?

ABOUT YOU AND MOMMY.

HE SOUNDED...DIFFERENT.

DIFFERENT HOW?

LIKE HE WAS MAD
ABOUT SOMETHING YOU GUYS DID.

HE WANTED TO KNOW
WHERE YOU WERE.
OKAY.

OKAY, OKAY.

[ KISSES ]

GO WAIT FOR US IN THE --
IN THE CAR, OKAY, BABY?

MOMMY AND DADDY HAVE TO TALK.

IF HE'S LOOKING FOR US...
CLAIRE --

WE CAN'T RISK HAVING HENRY --
I CAN PROTECT OUR SON.

HOW? YOU HAVE SEEN
WHAT DRILL CAN DO.

IS HE SAFER WITH THE FBI?
WITH YOUR MOM?

CLAIRE, IT DOESN'T MATTER
WHERE HENRY IS.

IF THERE IS ELECTRICITY,
DRILL CAN FIND HIM.

WE'RE BETTER OFF TOGETHER.

COME ON.

EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE
OKAY FOR NOW.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

DRILL. HE'S GONE.

WE ELIMINATED HIM.
OH, MY GOD.

[ CHUCKLES ]
WE ELIMINATED HIM.
OH, MY GOD.

OH, WHEN?
[ KISSES ]

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT, UH, THREE,
THREE, FOUR HOURS AGO.

WES, HE WAS HERE
AN HOUR AGO.

THAT'S NOT --
THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE.

I SHOULD'VE TOLD YOU
THIS SOONER,

BUT, UM,
I'VE BEEN TALKING TO HIM.

YOU TALK...TO DRILL?

WELL, NOT DIRECTLY,
BUT THROUGH MINX.

I ASKED QUESTIONS,

AND SHE TOLD ME
WHAT HIS ANSWERS WERE.

LENA --
LOOK, I KNOW, I KNOW, WES.
I'M SO SORRY.

I JUST --
YOU'RE -- YOU'RE SURE
THIS HAPPENED AN HOUR AGO?

MINX CAME IN HERE,
AND SHE WOKE ME UP,

AND SHE TOLD ME HE WANTED
TO PLAY A GAME WITH ME.

WHAT KIND OF A GAME?

SHE TOLD ME HE'D SHOW ME
WHEN HE'S READY.

[ Whispers ] HEY, MINX?

WHAT IS IT, DADDY?
IT'S OKAY, SWEETIE.

I...I JUST NEED TO KNOW
IF YOU WERE HELPING MOMMY

TALK TO DRILL TONIGHT.

IT'S OKAY.
I ALREADY TOLD HIM.

TELL HIM WHAT YOU SAID.

[ Whispers ] IT'S OKAY.

I'M SORRY.
I WAS JUST PRETENDING.

NO.

TELL DADDY THE TRUTH

ABOUT HOW WE'VE BEEN
PLAYING WITH DRILL.

[ SIGHS ] I WAS JUST TRYING
TO MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER, MOMMY.

I KNOW HOW MUCH YOU WANTED
TO TALK TO DRILL,

SO I JUST MADE IT UP.
I'M SORRY.

I THINK...

WE ALL JUST NEED
SOME REST, OKAY?

[ SWITCH CLICKS,
DOOR CLOSES ]

SHE'S LYING.
WHAT MAKES YOU THINK
SHE'S LYING NOW AND NOT BEFORE?

DID YOU EVER HEAR
DRILL YOURSELF?

NO, BUT --
SO ALL YOU REALLY KNOW IS

WHAT MINX TOLD YOU
HE WAS SAYING, RIGHT?

LOOK, ISN'T IT POSSIBLE
THAT SHE JUST MADE IT UP TO --

TO GET
HER MOTHER'S ATTENTION?

I MEAN, LOOK, WE -- WE HAVE
ALL BEEN THROUGH A LOT, OKAY?

[ KISSES ]
BUT IT'S OVER NOW, OKAY?

THINGS WILL GO
BACK TO NORMAL.

LET'S GO TO BED.
[ KISSES ]

SO WES CAN REACH US.

IT'S NOT TRACEABLE.

[ PHONE BEEPS ]

I NEED TO WASH UP.

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

[ INHALES AND EXHALES DEEPLY ]

YOU REMEMBER THE LAST TIME

WE WERE IN
A HOTEL ROOM TOGETHER?

NEW YEAR'S EVE,
TWO YEARS AGO.

IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE
A GETAWAY TO RECONNECT.

WE BOTH GOT FOOD POISONING.

IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL ROOM,
HUGE BED,

AND THE TWO OF US CURLED UP
ON THE BATHROOM FLOOR TOGETHER,

ALL NIGHT.

YOU SAID THE COLD TILE
WOULD MAKE US FEEL BETTER.

[ SIGHS ]

YOU WERE RIGHT.

BATH MATS FOR PILLOWS,
ROBES FOR BLANKETS.

YOU KNOW WHAT
I REMEMBER MOST?

HOW WE TALKED,
ALMOST THE WHOLE NIGHT.

SOMEHOW WE STOPPED
DOING THAT --

TALKING TO EACH OTHER.

MAYBE WE JUST
STOPPED LISTENING.

MAYBE.

BUT WE MADE IT THROUGH
THAT NIGHT TOGETHER.

THAT'S HOW WE'RE GONNA
MAKE IT THROUGH THIS.

WHAT IS "MAKING IT THROUGH"
MEAN, SEAN?

IT MEANS WE'RE GONNA BE
A FAMILY AGAIN.

[ INHALES
AND EXHALES DEEPLY ]

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

[ TELEPHONE RINGING
IN DISTANCE ]

IT CAME IN.
HMM?

THE RESEARCH AGENT BENNIGAN
ORDERED LAST WEEK.

I WASN'T SURE
WHERE TO PUT IT.

I'LL TAKE IT. THANK YOU.

[ CELL PHONE VIBRATING ]

JESSUP?
IS EVERYTHING OKAY?

Remember when you had research
look into case studies

on imaginary friends?

How you wanted to go beyond
what's in the FBI database?

YEAH.

Well, they pulled something
from a psychology journal

about childhood
disassociative disorders.

AND WHAT DOES IT SAY?

Well, one of the subjects

IS AN 8-YEAR-OLD BOY
WHO REPORTS TALKING TO

A FRIEND NAMED DRILL,
A, UH, "MALEVOLENT PRESENCE

FROM ANOTHER WORLD,
WHO SPEAKS ONLY TO CHILDREN."
Malevolent?

SOUNDS LIKE HE'S THE FIRST KID
TO SEE THROUGH DRILL'S ACT,

WHO IS HE?
HOW HE IS CONNECTED TO THE --

It's not the who
that's interesting here.

IT'S THE WHEN.

THIS ARTICLE WAS WRITTEN
IN 1982.

DRILL'S BEEN HERE BEFORE.

♪♪♪

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

CLAIRE, YOU ALL RIGHT?

Yeah, we're fine.

YEAH, YOU NEED TO LAY LOW
A LITTLE WHILE LONGER, OKAY?

I'M STILL WORKING
ON THE SECRETARY.

WES, LISTEN, THE SECRETARY ISN'T
OUR BIGGEST PROBLEM ANYMORE.

DRILL SURVIVED.

WES?

LENA TRIED TO TELL ME
THE SAME THING.

I-I DIDN'T BELIEVE HER.
WHERE ARE YOU NOW?

[ SIGHS ] WE'RE IN DELAWARE.

What are you doing there?

He could know everything.

If he's known Drill
for 30 years,

he damn sure knows more

about what we're up against --
OKAY, DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA
WHERE HE IS NOW?

NO, NO, BUT JESSUP WAS ABLE
TO TRACK DOWN AN ADDRESS

FOR THE KID'S FATHER.

IT'S 115 PINE CREST ROAD
IN HOCKESSIN.

BE CAREFUL, OKAY? IF DRILL
IS OUT THERE, THEN --

Yeah, you guys, too.

[ CELL PHONE BEEPS ]

LENA, IT'S ME.

YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT DRILL.

[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLING ]

I'm gonna be home soon,
but until I am,

I just want you and Minx
to be careful.

Maybe get out of the house,
get away from any electricity.

Just -- just call me
when you get this.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]
[ GASPS ]

MOMMY?

I'M SORRY I LIED.
BUT YOU LIED TO DRILL.

YOU PROMISED YOU'D KEEP
OUR GAMES WITH HIM A SECRET,

BUT THEN YOU TOLD DADDY.

I DON'T WANT DRILL
TO BE MAD AT YOU.

I WANT YOU TO BE FRIENDS.

HONEY, I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD
BE FRIENDS WITH DRILL ANYMORE.

BUT DRILL SAYS HE HAS
AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR YOU.

WHY CAN'T YOU JUST TELL ME
WHAT THE MESSAGE IS?

DRILL SAYS IT'S A SECRET MESSAGE
JUST FOR YOU.

IF YOU DO WHAT THE LETTERS SAY,
HE'LL GIVE YOU WHAT YOU WANT.

[ TILES THUD ]

[ TILES CLATTER ]

WHAT IS IT, MOMMY?
IS IT FUN?
NO.

NO, HONEY, IT'S NOT FUN.
AND I WON'T PLAY.

EVER.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

MR. HARCOURT?
YES?

WE'D LIKE TO SPEAK WITH YOU
ABOUT YOUR SON.

UH-OH.

GREG DONE SOMETHIN' WRONG?

NO. NO, NO, WE'RE JUST
LOOKING FOR SOME INFORMATION.

BUT I...I THINK WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT AN OLDER SON

WHO PARTICIPATED IN

A PSYCHOLOGICAL STUDY
BACK IN 1982?

YEAH, I'M SORRY.
THIS ISN'T A GOOD TIME.

WHY DON'T YOU COME --
PLEASE, PLEASE.

PLEASE, I'M NOT ASKING YOU
AS A FEDERAL AGENT.

I'M...
I'M ASKING YOU AS A PARENT.

OUR SON...HAS BEEN
SPEAKING WITH DRILL.

DRILL?

DRILL WAS THOMAS' IMAGINARY
FRIEND. HOW IS YOUR SON --

HE'S NOT IMAGINARY.

HE'S REAL.

THERE WERE RUMORS THAT
YOUR DOMESTIC TERROR PLOT

WAS RECENTLY FOILED AT
THE HARBOR POINT NUCLEAR PLANT.

WELL, ROGER, IT'S, UH,
IT'S NEVER A GOOD POLICY

TO COMMENT ON RUMORS.

WELL, CERTAINLY PEOPLE

HAVE LEGITIMATE QUESTIONS
AND CONCERNS.

I REALIZE THAT, SO --
SO LET ME JUST SAY,

THERE WAS NO DOMESTIC
TERROR PLOT FOILED

AT THE HARBOR POINT
NUCLEAR FACILITY.

THIS WAS SIMPLY
A SECURITY EXERCISE

DESPITE WHAT THE BLOGGERS
AND CONSPIRACY THEORISTS

MIGHT WANNA BELIEVE.

THANK YOU, MR. SECRETARY.

ALWAYS A PLEASURE, ROGER.

WES?

WHAT'S GOIN' ON?

WE WERE WRONG, SIR.

THE ENEMY WAS NOT NEUTRALIZED
AT THE BLACK SITE.

I APOLOGIZE FOR JUMPING
THE GUN ON MY ANALYSIS --
THIS IS NOT THE TIME
FOR APOLOGIES, WES.

HOW LONG DO YOU THINK
WE CAN CONTAIN THIS?

CLAIRE BENNIGAN IS CURRENTLY
WORKING ON A LEAD

THAT MIGHT GIVE US --

ARE YOU SERIOUSLY TELLING ME
YOU'VE HAD CONTACT WITH HER?

SHE IS -- SHE IS OUR BEST CHANCE
OF GETTING THROUGH

THIS PROBLEM, SIR.
NO, NO, THERE WAS A TIME WHEN
OUR BEST CHANCE WAS YOU, SON.

CLEARLY,
THAT TIME'S OVER.

I'M STRIPPING YOU
OF YOUR CLEARANCE.

PACK YOUR THINGS,
GO HOME.

AND WATCH OUT
FOR THAT FAMILY OF YOURS.

WHAT DO YOU WANT ME
TO DO?

[ INDISTINCT WHISPERING ]

WHERE IS IT?

[ INDISTINCT WHISPERING ]

ARE YOU SURE IT'S SAFE?

OKAY, I'LL HELP.

MINX, TIME FOR LUNCH!

[ KNIFE CLATTERS ]

MINX?

MINX? WHERE ARE YOU?

UP HERE, MOMMY.
[ GASPS ]

OH, MY GOD.

MINX,
STEP BACK FROM THE EDGE.

IT'S OKAY, MOMMY. DRILL SAYS
THERE'S A KITTEN UP HERE.

I'M GONNA SAVE HER.

[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLES ]

OKAY, HONEY,
I'M SERIOUS NOW.

I NEED YOU TO --
TO GET DOWN FROM THERE

AND GO INSIDE.

BUT THE KITTEN'S UP --
THERE IS NO KITTEN.

BUT DRILL SAID THERE WAS.
I KNOW,
BUT DRILL WAS WRONG, SWEETIE.

SO JUST GO BACK INSIDE,
OKAY?

OKAY.

[ INDISTINCT WHISPERING ]

MINX?

OKAY, I'LL ASK.

DRILL WANTS TO KNOW IF YOU'RE
READY TO PLAY HIS GAME NOW.

[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLING ]

JUST GO INSIDE,

COME DOWN,
AND I'LL BE RIGHT IN, OKAY?

WILL YOU PROMISE
TO LEAVE HER ALONE

AND NEVER TALK TO HER AGAIN?

[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLES ]

OKAY, OKAY, I'LL DO IT.

BEFORE GREG,
I HAD TWO OTHER SONS.

THOMAS --
HE WAS THE YOUNGER ONE.

ELIOT WAS TWO YEARS OLDER.

[ THUNDER RUMBLING ]

[ SIGHS ]
I WAS AT N.A.S.A. THEN,

WORKING AS AN ASTRONOMER.

AND EVERY DAY, WHEN I CAME HOME,
THE BOYS WOULD ASK,

DID I HEAR
FROM THE ALIENS TODAY?

AS IT SO HAPPENS,
IN THE SUMMER OF '82, WE...

PICKED UP A STRANGE SIGNAL.

WHAT KIND OF SIGNAL?

NARROWBAND RADIO FROM
THE CHI SAGITTARII STAR GROUP.

AND WHEN I TOLD THE BOYS,
THEY GOT SO EXCITED,

THOMAS ESPECIALLY.

HE SAID HE WANTED TO MEET THEM.

A FEW WEEKS LATER,
HE CAME TO ME.

HE SAID THE ALIEN
WASN'T OUT THERE.

HE WAS ALREADY HERE
IN HIS HEAD.

MR. HARCOURT,
WHAT DID THOMAS DO?

THOMAS, HE, UM...

HE KILLED HIS BROTHER.

SAID DRILL MADE HIM DO IT.

HEY, CALLIE, WHERE'S LENA?

SHE'S AT
A DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT.

SHE NEVER MENTIONED
AN APPOINTMENT TO ME.

WHERE'S MINX?
SHE'S UPSTAIRS.

WHAT'S WRONG?

MINX, HONEY,
WE NEED TO TALK.

WHAT'S THAT STUFF, DADDY?

CAMERAS. SPECIAL CAMERAS.
SO WE CAN SEE IF DRILL'S HERE.

I TOLD YOU,
DRILL ISN'T HERE ANYMORE.
ENOUGH.

I KNOW THAT YOU LIED TO ME
ABOUT DRILL

AND WHAT YOU TOLD
YOUR MOMMY.

I'M SORRY.
I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

DRILL SAID NOT TO TELL YOU.

IT DOESN'T MATTER
WHAT DRILL SAYS ANYMORE.

OKAY? I NEED YOU TO PROMISE ME
IF HE CONTACTS YOU, YOU TELL ME.

THIS FAMILY, WE DON'T HAVE
ANY SECRETS ANYMORE, ALL RIGHT?

OKAY.
OKAY.

THEN I THINK YOU NEED TO KNOW
SOMETHING ABOUT MOMMY.

WHAT?

I THINK SHE'S GONNA DO
SOMETHING BAD.

THOMAS AND ELIOT HAD GONE OUT
TO PLAY IN THE WOODS

DOWN BY HANGER'S POND.

I TOLD THEM TO BE BACK
BEFORE IT GOT DARK

'CAUSE A STORM WAS ROLLING IN.

WELL, THE STORM CAME IN --
THUNDER, LIGHTNING, HARD RAIN,

AND NEITHER OF THE BOYS
WERE HOME.

SO I SET OUT TO LOOK FOR 'EM.

WHEN I FOUND THOMAS,

HE CAME WALKING OUT FROM THE
TREES LIKE HE'D SEEN A GHOST.

LOOKED AS IF HE WAS
DRENCHED TO THE BONE.

BUT WHEN I GOT CLOSER,
I COULD TELL...

IT WASN'T JUST RAIN
HE WAS SOAKED IN.

I'M SO SORRY.

AND WHAT HAPPENED TO THOMAS --
WAS HE --

YES, HE WAS, UH, SENT TO
THE ROCKWOOD INSTITUTION.

IT'S A PSYCHIATRIC FACILITY.

HE SPENT 10 YEARS THERE
BEFORE HIS EMANCIPATION.

AND THEN YOU HAD
ANOTHER SON.

YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND,
I DIDN'T JUST LOSE ELIOT,

I LOST BOTH OF MY SONS
THAT NIGHT.

AND I JUST --
I COULDN'T, UH...

LIVE WITH THE MEMORY
THAT HURT ANY LONGER.

LENA, WHATEVER YOU THINK
YOU'RE DOING,

WHATEVER REASONS YOU THINK
YOU HAVE FOR DOING IT,

JUST PLEASE DON'T,
JUST CALL ME.

Harcourt: MAYBE I SHOULD'VE
PAID MORE ATTENTION.

MAYBE I SHOULD'VE...BELIEVED.

I DIDN'T.

ANY IDEA WHERE WE MIGHT BE
ABLE TO FIND THOMAS NOW?

NO.

THIS IS THE ONLY THING
I HAVE LEFT OF HIM.

THOMAS IS ON THIS?

IT'S OLD HOME MOVIES.

I STILL HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE
TO BRING MYSELF

TO WATCH 'EM, BUT PLEASE.
[ TIN THUDS ]

I SHOULD --

NO, I'LL CHECK ON THE KIDS.
I'LL BE BACK IN A SECOND.

I HOPE YOU FIND SOMETHING
THAT CAN HELP YA.

[ BOX THUDS ]

[ PROJECTOR WHIRRING ]

Sean: THERE'S ELIOT.

THAT MUST BE THOMAS.

Claire: THAT LOOK LIKE
A KILLER TO YOU?

OH, MY GOD.

IS THAT HANGER'S POND?
THAT'S WHERE IT HAPPENED.

WAIT.

STOP.
PLAY IT BACK AGAIN.

[ PROJECTOR CONTINUES WHIRRING ]

[ MOUTHS WORDS ]

"I'M SORRY."

HE'S APOLOGIZING.

[ SWITCH CLICKS ]

WHY WOULD DRILL
HAVE WANTED THIS BOY DEAD?

IT'S NEVER ABOUT THE KIDS.

IT'S ABOUT THE PARENTS,
WHAT THEY CAN DO FOR DRILL,

WHO THEY HAVE ACCESS TO.

DAD WORKED FOR N.A.S.A.
THEY GOT THAT SIGNAL.

IF WE FOLLOW DRILL'S PATTERN,

THEN ELIOT'S DEATH WOULD'VE KEPT
HIS FATHER FROM DOING SOMETHING.

[ Lowered voice ]
BUT WHAT?

[ Normal voice ]
DAD DOESN'T KNOW ANYTHING.

WITHOUT THOMAS,
WE GOT NOTHING.

MAYBE WE'RE LOOKING
FOR THE WRONG HARCOURT.

Jessup, I need you to do
another search,

but this time
for Eliot Harcourt.

OKAY, I GOT TWO HITS.

ONE DECEASED IN 1982,
THE OTHER...

CURRENT RESIDENCE,

2-1-7 SPRUCE STREET,
WILMINGTON, DELAWARE.

217 SPRUCE STREET,
THANK YOU.

WHAT --

IT'S A PSYCHIATRIC
COPING MECHANISM CALLED

IDENTITY TRANSFERENCE --
A WAY TO WORK OUT HIS GUILT

BY TAKING HIS BROTHER'S NAME,
ELIOT LIVES ON,

AND IT'S THOMAS, THE --
THE BAD ONE,

THE GUILTY ONE
THAT GOES AWAY.

I NEED YOUR HELP.

WITH WHAT?

I NEED TO FIND MY WIFE.

I CAN TRACK HER CELL.

WHAT'S SHE DOING

WHERE SEAN AND CLAIRE JUST WERE.

SHE'S GOING AFTER THEM.

WHY?

'CAUSE THAT'S WHAT DRILL
WANTS HER TO DO.

[ GUN COCKS ]

MADE PEOPLE THINK I WAS

CARED ABOUT ME THE MOST,

NOT EVEN THEY BELIEVED ME.

BUT I-I COULDN'T BLAME THEM.

WE WERE THE ONES
WHO CALLED HIM HERE.

WE JUST DIDN'T KNOW IT.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
"WE CALLED HIM"?

"NOW I AM BECOME DEATH.

DESTROYER OF WORLDS."
THE QUOTE.

PEOPLE SAID IT WAS
OPPENHEIMER.

ACTUALLY, IT'S FROM
THE "BHAGAVAD GITA,"

BUT IT EXPRESSED
HOW OPPENHEIMER FELT

AFTER REALIZING WHAT
COMPLETING THE ATOMIC BOMB

REALLY MEANT FOR OUR WORLD.

I'M SORRY.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

IT'S ALL RIGHT HERE.

BETWEEN 1945 AND 1982,

THERE WERE OVER 1,703
NUCLEAR TESTS AROUND THE WORLD.

EACH EXPLOSION SENT A TRAIL
OF ENERGY WAY OUT INTO SPACE.

OVER TIME,
WE CREATED A BEACON.

AND THEY JUST FOLLOWED IT HERE.

THEY EVEN SENT BACK
A SIGNAL OF THEIR OWN.

MY FATHER WAS THE ONE
WHO PICKED IT UP.

AND IT HAPPENED
SOON AFTER THAT.

WHAT?

THAT'S WHEN
THE WHISPERS STARTED.

[ Muffled voice ]
SOMEBODY HELP ME!

Thomas:
THEY SAID HE WAS DYING.

NOT JUST HIM --
HIS WHOLE PLANET.

THE ENERGY THEY NEED TO LIVE
OFF OF IS ALMOST ALL GONE,

SO THEY SENT DRILL OUT,

AFTER THAT BEACON OF HEAT
COMING FROM US.

WHEN HE GOT HERE,

HE REALIZED ONLY THE KIDS
COULD HEAR HIM.

ANY IDEA WHY HE CHOSE
TO SPEAK TO YOU?

HE NEEDED A WAY TO SEND
A SIGNAL BACK TO THE OTHERS.

AND YOUR FATHER WORKED
WITH SIGNALS -- SATELLITES.

BUT I KNEW.

I KNEW WHAT WOULD HAPPEN
IF DRILL SENT THAT SIGNAL OUT.

[ VEHICLE APPROACHES ]

OH, SHE STOPPED AGAIN.

217 SPRUCE STREET,
SAME AS SEAN AND CLAIRE.

HOW FAR OUT ARE WE?
THREE MINUTES.

Sean: THOMAS, DOES DRILL
STILL SPEAK TO YOU?

THE DOCTORS SAID I JUST
STOPPED HEARING THE WHISPERS

BECAUSE THE MEDICATION
WAS WORKING.

BUT YOU AND I KNOW BETTER.

WE KNOW BETTER ABOUT WHAT?

WHEN DID HE STOP
TALKING TO YOU?

IT DOESN'T MATTER.

THOMAS, WE ARE HERE BECAUSE
WE WANNA HELP OUR SON.

WE WANT DRILL
TO LEAVE HIM ALONE,

AND ANYTHING THAT
YOU CAN TELL US --
DRILL IS TALKING
TO YOUR SON?

AND OTHER KIDS, TOO.

NO, THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE.

THAT...

THEY MUST'VE SENT
ANOTHER ONE TO FIND US.

WHAT --
WHAT IF HE FOLLOWED YOU?

YOU HAVE TO LEAVE!

YOU -- I CAN'T --

I DON'T WANNA
HEAR HIM AGAIN!

ANOTHER DRILL?
THAT'S THE ONLY WAY!

THE ONLY WAY THAT WHAT?

IF YOUR SON IS TALKING
TO HIM NOW,

HE CAN'T BE
THE SAME FRIEND I HAD.
WHY NOT, THOMAS?

BECAUSE I KILLED HIM!

I KILLED DRILL.

IT'S GONNA BE OKAY.

ALL RIGHT, SIT DOWN.
SIT DOWN, SIT DOWN.

[ GROANING ]
IT'S OKAY.

THERE'S NO EXIT WOUND.

WE NEED TO GET SOMETHING
TO STOP THIS BLEEDING.

GET IT, GET IT, GET IT,
I GOT IT.

LENA? LENA?

I GOT THIS.

I WILL MAKE IT OKAY,
ALL RIGHT? PROMISE.

THOMAS, LOOK AT ME.

LOOK AT ME.
HIS PRESSURE'S DROPPING.

NO, NO.

THOMAS...

LOOK AT ME.
I NEED TO KNOW, PLEASE.

I NEED TO KNOW.

HOW DID YOU DO IT?
HOW DID YOU DO IT?
STOP.

HOW DID YOU DO IT?
HOW DID YOU DO IT, THOMAS?

PLEASE. WES!

HELLO, WES?!

OKAY, I GOT THIS. I GOT IT.
[ PANTING ]

WE CAN'T TAKE HIM TO A HOSPITAL
WITH A GUNSHOT WOUND.

THEY'LL HAVE TO REPORT IT
TO THE POLICE.

I UNDERSTAND, WES,
BUT HE KNOWS.

HE KNOWS HOW TO KILL DRILL.
