[woman singing in Thai]

[woman vocalizing]

[broadcaster] ...been keeping a very close eye

on the typhoon over the last few days.

It always was forecast to be a very powerful, violent typhoon,

and that's turned out to be exactly the case,

and you can see it clearly here on the satellite.

See of course the eye very well defined,

and around the eye,

well, we've got some very ferocious wind

that's been causing incredible damage.

Gusts have been up to around about 320 kilometers an hour,

and it may landfall pretty much at its peak,

and those gusts of winds,

well, throwing the large objects around,

causing, uh, structural damage,

widespread destruction.

-And it's not finished yet. -[cat meows]

[reporter] The typhoon right now is quite far away,

with winds in the eye wall that could exceed

over 200 kilometers per hour.

The typhoon is due to make landfall in 12 hours.

[rapping on glass]

That's 7 p.m. local time.

You need to evacuate

if you're in the path of the typhoon immediately.

[raps on glass]

[water drips]

[music playing]

Neil.

Neil, are you okay?

Neil.

Honey.

Neil.

[gasps] Oh, my God.

Look at this room.

[groans]

Oh, my God. Neil, we're late!

[broadcast continues indistinctly]

Neil, seriously, get up!

...large and violent typhoon

makes its way across the South China Sea.

[sighs]

...make landfall in Vietnam on Sunday.

That really is the one to watch over the next few days.

Thank you, Michael. The typhoon right now is quite far away.

However, if you live in this zone over here,

-you should be careful. -[water running]

Oh, that doesn't look good.

[water running]

...could potentially make a direct hit.

The typhoon is due to make landfall in 12 hours...

Is that blood?

What happened last night?

If you're in the path of the typhoon,

you need to evacuate, get yourself somewhere safe.

Do you think we'll still make the boat?

Yeah, we'll make it.

Did you buy me this?

I have no idea.

Doesn't really look like either of our tastes.

You know, I can't even remember

how we got back to the room last night. Can you?

No. The important thingis we did, so good for us.

Oh, wait, wait. Wait, wait.

This isn't right.

He has to turn towards the water to get to the ferry.

Sir. Uh...

pai taing qua...

to ferry.

[driver speaking Thai]

What did he say?

Something about a festival.

Do you know of any festival?

San Khabuga, but it's not for another two weeks.

Oh, well, then he's padding the fare by going the long way.

Hey, yeah, yeah.

-Hey, hey, hey, hey! -[pounds seat]

[speaking Thai]

Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.

Rae...

rae ka pe sei saam rap.

-Okay? Yeah? -[speaking Thai]

We pay you extra for direct.

[speaking Thai]

Could you slow down, please? I-I can't...

[speaking Thai]

Hey, buddy, lis-- Mi mae cha sakaal.

Okay, no-- no festival.

Okay? No festival.

Yes, ferry. No festival.

-Ferry. -[Neil] Wait.

What is he doing?

You, get out!

No, no, no. Sir, sir, we're sorry.

We have to get to the ferry, okay?

If you want more money, we'll pay you.

No, no, no, no, no.

Lakaa thos chanmi nuei.

Yeah?

[speaking Thai]

You get out!

Get out!

[scooter horn honks]

My passport and my wallet are in here.

-[Neil] You sure? -Your passport, too.

And where ismy fucking phone?!

-What-- -Hey, madame,

no I.D., no board.

No, no, no. Come on.

Sorry.

Next, please!

Okay, let's justretrace our steps.

When was the last timeyou had your passport?

Well, I paid for dinner, remember,

and then I put it away.

I never touched it again.

Oh, no. Did I leave it in the room?

It's okay.Don't worry about it.

-[groans] I'm so stupid. -We'll figure it out.

It's okay.

W-We'll figuresomething out.

[radio chatter]

I'm sorry, but we are already late getting under way.

If you find your I.D., there is another boat at 7:00.

Well, what about the storm?

That's land.

No, I saw it on TV.

There's a hurricane or a typhoon coming.

No, no, no. In 200 year,

we never had a typhoon or hurricane.

200 year.

Yeah. I know. I read the brochure.

Enjoy one more day, okay?

Thanks.

[engine rumbling]

[speaking Thai]

Sweet.

Wait. Where's the luggage?

Wait!

Wait, wait, wait!Our luggage!

Wait! Wait a minute!

Hey! Can you stop them?!

Um, c-can you call the boat back, please?

They have our luggage. They took our luggage.

No phone on the boat.

Are you kidding me?

[worker] Don't worry.

It will be waitingfor you on the other side.

[bird squawking]

[wind blowing]

[Neil sighs]

Passports are gone.

So's your phone.

Why don't we take a walk on the beach?

Relaxed dress code.

Optional, even.

It would have to be,

because they tookmost of our luggage.

Neil, we have to findour passports.

We have to take the 7 p.m. ferry.

We can cancel the credit cards.

Once we get back to the mainland,

we can go to the embassy.

I mean, they must handle this sort of thing

all the time, right?

Okay.

Hey, honey, relax.

[woman vocalizing]

[speaking Thai]

[distorted singing in Thai]

Hey.

What's all this?

I started thinking.

I must have taken some photoslast night. All right.

Okay.

Let's see if we canfigure out what happened.

This could get ugly.

Oh, great.

Here's dinner at Hang-sen's.

Looking sober.

Drinks at Ping-Pong's.

Dancing at this place, looking very sexy.

See, I remember all of this.

Whoa.

I was way drunk.

You're deletingall of this.

Shit, there's a video,

2 1/2 hours long.

[chatter on video]

All right, this is Neil Oliver

taking you off the beaten path.

We are in a bar, uh, off the coast of Thailand.

[chatter on video]

Drinks.

Did you get a good look, Neil?

Oh, come on.

-Over here! -[Neil] What are you doing?

-We got an 18-hour flight. -[waitress] ...is intense.

-Are you sure? -Oh, absolutely.

Shh!

The hot waitress is trying to offer us a drink.

-[Neil] Oh! -It's Madee.

[Neil] Hi, Madee![laughs]

But it's still an 18-hour flight.

Then stay.

Why leave paradise?

Yeah. I mean, why leave paradise?

Uh, can you tell me what exactly that is

that you're putting in there?

Oh.

Oh. Oh, good.

[Madee cheers]

This is like an out-of-body experience.

I don't remember any of this.

[Madee] And one for you, too.

-No. I'm okay. I'm okay. -Come on, baby.

-Come on, baby. -No, no.

Okay. Well...

[chuckles]

This is SangSom, right?

[Madee] No, seiysla.

Call it island magic.

[Neil grunts]

[soft whispering]

-[cheering] -[applause]

Oh, it's so smooth. Thank you.

[laughter]

Oh, what's this?

-Aww. -Ah.

So sweet.

A gift.

For your brave deeds, may you endure.

It will bring you good health.

[Neil] Brave-- Brave deeds?

Brave enough to do what, exactly?

Leave it on you always.

For good luck.

-Wow, that's... -Guess we figured out

where you gotthe necklace.

-I've never seen... -You've never-- Excuse me.

You stumped the expert.

My husband is a travel reporter.

He's doing a-a piece on the island.

-It's why we're here. -I-I'll do a piece on you.

[laughs]

[laughter]

[groans]

Sweetheart, you all right?

No. No.

Are you joking?

-[video crackling] -You need help?

-Sweetheart? -[panting]

-[pounding] -Open the door!

Christine, listen to me.

We're okay.

We were drugged. That's all.

[pounding]

Now, will you open this?

Oh, my God.

Oh, my--

[faint] Open up the door.

It's all right. It's all right.

Let's get you out of here.

Come on. Let's get you out of here.

What the hell is this?!

Look at the door, Mommy!

Nathida, you stay there, okay.

We booked this placeon Airbnb.

You're the Olivers.

You were supposed to be checked out by now.

-Are you okay? -Yeah, she's fine.

She's just--She's feeling a little sick

and locked herselfin the-- the bathroom.

-We missed our boat. -Okay.

I'd like to hear her say that.

I'm okay. [panting]

[birds chirping]

[woman singing in Thai]

[wind blowing]

It's from Samantha.

[singing continues]

I called a cab. He's 15 minutes away.

[grunts]

[Nathida] Samantha, the room is a mess.

It's "Mom," sweetie.

She likes to show off.

Where did you get this?

What did Mommy say about touching other people's things?

Only to do it when they're not looking.

Oh, you're so smart. Off you go.

[singing continues]

[necklace clinking]

[Samantha] She needs to see a doctor

Yeah, I can--I can take care of her.

I think it's bestwe get out of your hairand go find a hotel.

Oh, you are not gonna find a hotel.

It's our busy season.

We have room. It's fine.

-[sighs] -Listen,

I know the doctor on the island.

I can get you in today if you want.

[children laughing]

[Man] Hey. [speaking Thai]

[womanspeaking Thai]

Uh, any English?

A little.

You are no Thai?

No, I'm American.

You American.

[speaking Thai]

[doctor speaking Thai]

Ahhhh.

Ahh.

-Good. -[Christine] Okay.

Doc, listen. We were dosed with something,

given a strange drink.

She was very sick this morning.

She was-- She was vomiting dirt.

Dirt.

[conversing in Thai]

I think Nam Mun Prai.

Nam Mun Prai. What's--

What Nam Mun...

Nam Mun Prai.

Okay.

N-A-M...

M-U-N...

P-R-A-I.

Okay. It's, uh--

It's a hard-core Buddhist drink,

It's very poisonous,

and it's a powerful hallucinogen.

You, hallucination.

Paranoia, vomiting...

basically everything except death.

Nope, death as well if you drink too much.

[Christine] You think this was a hallucination?

Show him the video.

[gagging]

[bone cracks]

[Neil panting]

[speaking Thai]

Hollywood.

No. No, he...

-thinks it's a film. -No.

[speaking Thai]

This is a real video, okay?

It's real. It's not Hollywood.

[laughs] Real video.

Yeah, real video.

These bruises are real.

I choked her, okay?

I can't remember it.

I can't remember the last 12 hours.

[doctor speaking Thai]

[speaking Thai]

Take.

I'm not going to drink this.

Everything will be okay.

-I'm not drinking this. -No.

[speaking Thai]

[tone whining]

[children laughing faintly]

Bad medicineon our island.

[paper rips]

Very good food.

Turn it off.

Turn it off!

I-I don't even understand what I'm seeing.

Yeah? Well, it looks a lot like you to me.

You know that's not me, right?

I was throwing up dirt, Neil.

Well, you were covered in it.

You must have swallowed some of it--

And what aboutthese bruises on my neck?

They're from you.

From me?

What's on this video is impossible.

We watched you snap my neck!

Do you understand how insane that sounds?

You're standing here right in front of me, and you're fine.

Look, what's on this video,

there must be a less crazy explanation for what we're seeing.

Right?

[tone whining]

Neil?

Neil?!

Oh, my God.

-[gasps] -Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Cafe is likea two-minute walk from here

Wait. Wh-Where did you go?

Where were you just now?

What are you talking about?I just--

Christine, are you okay?Come here.

-Don't. -What?

Look...

I understandyou're scared, okay?

I-I'm scared, too,but don't be scared of me.

I would neverintentionally hurt you.

If you want some space,

I can go and tryand find the passports.

Are you seriously suggesting that we split up right now?

-No, I'm just saying-- -You know what?

Just go take your pictures, Neil,

'cause that's what you wanna do.

I'm just tryingto do the right thing.

I-- Only I don't knowwhat that is.

[panting]

I just wanna go home.

Seven p.m. tonight,we're getting on that ferry,

and we're gettingthe hell out of here.

I'm sorry. I...

I don't haveany other words.

I don't knowwhat happened last night,

but whatever it was...

I'm sorry.

[overlapping chatter in Thai]

[drums beating]

Is thisthe mystery festival?

[music playing]

[man trills]

Yeah, I guess.

You're welcome to get closer.

Bon appétit!

Did you see the wayshe looked at this?

Yeah.

So creepy.

[whooping continues]

[musicians playing]

[music distorts]

Hey. Have you seen her?

[chef] Mr. Oliver!

We found your wife!

[dogs barking]

Christine?

Christine, sweetheart.

Say something.

-[chef] Her arm! -I got you. Got you.

Yeah, I can seeher fuckin' arm.

Ah, it's okay.

What the fuck happened to her, huh?

[dogs barking]

-[wincing] -Sorry.

Sorry.

Hurts.

Aw, what happened?

Huh? Come on, sweetie.

I-I must have looked around the entire town looking for you.

Where'd you go, huh?

God.

[festival drums beating]

Did you put this back on me?

What? No.

I left it on the tableat the cafe.

Why won't you tell me what happened?

You won't believe me.

What are you talking about?

After today, try me.

Let's go get this bandaged properly, okay?

[Christine]When I got my vision back,

I looked up at them, and theywere completely faceless.

Their eyes were sewn shut.

Their mouths were sewn shut.

I sound totally crazy.

No. No, look...

I believe you.

Check this out.

It looks just like you.

-Kind of. -Yeah.

[sighs]

-Wait. She gave me the necklace.-Christine--

Hey!

[ranat music playing]

[ranat music continues]

[bells ring]

[coughs]

Excuse me.

There was a woman who just left here.

Can you tell us something about her?

[boy coughs]

[coughing]

Chakrii...

[speaking Thai]

My son.

Needs a doctor, don't you think?

No, just rest.

What do you know about this necklace?

Anything?

Hey, hey, easy. Easy.

[Neil] Okay.

Thank you.

What the fuck was that?

It's an honor on our island,

special giftfor celebrated guest.

A celebrated guest?

I'm a tourist, all right?

Do you know Madee?

The woman who just left here,

she gave this to me.

[chuckles] You want to thank her?

Yes. I want to thank her

for the 12 hours that have gone missing

since she gave me this necklace.

Our passports have been stolen.

I was gone again for another hour.

My husband looked for me everywhere.

He couldn't find me.

He didn't knowwhere I was!

I've been seeing shit that Idon't even know is real!

It's all right.

Look, we just want to know one thing, okay?

Tell us how to find Madee.

Madee's bar.

I don't recommend you go.

It's not for westerners.

[scoffs] Yeah, well, it's too late,

'cause I think we've already been.

[distorted singing in Thai]

Ms. Christina, Mr. Neil.

What surprise.

You ran from us.

Run from you?

[laughs]

We all look alike, right?

Come. Come.

Neil, that looks like my dress.

I try to find you.

You went home fast, and you forgot it.

Oh, yeah, it must have been really tough

to find two foreigners in a town this big, huh?

[chuckles] Everybody are foreigners here.

I came from somewhere else...

as did many.

Wait. Wh-Where's the other--

Where's--Where's my wife's passport?

Only you.

What? Listen.

After we left herelast night,

I choked my wife and thenburied her in a ditch.

[laughs]

Kinky.

That's what happen when you ride the manu miti.

The what?

Dream bird.

They say it-- it opens up your mind,

free your soul.

But I wouldn't touch it.

Too many side effects.

Like hallucination,

scramble the brain.

So you wouldn't take it,but you serve it?

My friend, you're the one

who asked for the drink yourself,

and I rewarded you...

for your bravery.

Take your bravery back.

No.

It's not yours to give.

What the helldoes that even mean?

I am so sickof this cryptic bullshit.

[crowd cheers in Thai]

What happened last night?

-And where is my passport? -[crowd cheers]

I think we should get out of here.

[crowd cheers]

I'll see you around.

[flies buzzing]

[distorted vocalizing]

[distorted singing in Thai]

[insects chittering]

[wind blowing]

Hey, one of Samantha's neighbors is a fisherman.

He's gonna take us to the mainland now.

What? Really?

[Nathida] No!

You can't go.

[Samantha] Isn't the ferry at 7:00?

We found another boat that will take us off the island.

They have to go backto their own home, sweetie.

Why don't you help Neilwith the bags, okay?

O-Okay. Uh...

-[Samantha chuckles] -lead the way.

He'll make a great father.

Thank you for everything.

Oh...

And the juice made mefeel so much better.

Oh, yeah? Island magic, right,

just like your necklace.

[faint vocalizing]

What is that? Is that a real thing?

Or is that just superstition?

I mean,I used to think so.

But I used to bereally sick.

I went to a specialistin America, Canada, China.

Finally someone saidI should come to this island.

I had no ideawhat to expect.

I mean, I thoughtI was gonna meet

a witch doctor or something,not that I care.

I mean, at that point,everything was on the table.

But, uh, I got here.

I don't know.It was the best thing for me.

I haven't been sick since.

So whether youcall that clean air,

climate, or magic,I'll take it. [chuckles]

Well, listen.

I-I'm not a believer.

You clearly are, so...

why don't you just take this?

I can't, no.

It's, uh--It's not meant for me.

You should probablyjust keep it for good luck.

Right.

Well, look, if you're ever in Boston...

Ah, I did 26 yearsin Minnesota,

so if you're lucky enough to find paradise,

why try to leave, right?

[insects chittering]

[knife slicing]

[engine sputtering]

[speaking Thai]

Hey. I was just thinking.

No one knows where we are.

What are you talking about?

Well, we were supposed to be on a flight

to the States this afternoon.

Let me borrow your phone.

-Honey? -[faint singing]

Your phone.

Who are you gonna call?

My Dad. My sister.

The FBI. I don't know.

Who did the guyin The Wicker Mancall?

No one. They burned him to death.

Oh, yeah.

He didn't havea cell phone, though.

I'm gonna try and get reception.

H-He's on the dock.

The tide is out then.

There couldn't have been a boat.

There was a boat.

Oh, God.

Hey! You!

You saw the boat and the water!

You saw me, right,

and my husband on the dock?

Uh... [speaking Thai]

Christine... [speaking Thai]

...Neil.

[speaking Thai]

He-- He said one.

He said it was just you, not Neil.

He said only one.

Wh-What is he trying to do?

[gasping]

What is he trying to do?

What is...

-Just calm down, please. -Oh, God.

[speaking Thai]

Witnesses heard you screaming.

Wait. Where's his phone?

His-- His phone?

[speaking Thai]

-You camera? -No, his phone.

On him.

No, I had it.

I had it. Somebody took it.

[speaking Thai]

Uh, he said, "Did you and Neil fight?"

No! No!

My husband and I were fine!

Oh, my God, what are you doing?

What is he doing?!

What is this?

No, why don't you come on? Come on.

Neil, speak up, honey.

I can't hear you.

[garbled speech continues]

Hello? Hello?

[crackles]

[speech ends]

I lost the signal.

-What did he say? -I just--

The reception was bad.

He just said, "Neil," and...

Did he say he was okay?

I just ran to give you the phone.

[gasping]

Oh, this is bullshit.

Somebody's messing with us.

Do you want to call the police?

I know who's doing this.

[Christine] I know where he is.

A typhoon warning is in effect...

Typhoon Maicala, a major typhoon

is poised to make landfall in five hours.

Expect pounding rain, flash flooding...

What are you and Nathida going to do?

...240 kilometers per hour.

A storm hasn't hitthe island in 200 years.

...could sweep away anything not nailed down.

Just to put this in context for you...

[faint singing]

...winds of 130 kilometers an hour.

It is shaping up to be the storm of the year,

if not the decade, and it's already

been classified as a super typhoon.

[birds chirping]

This is the part where Itell you not to go in.

This is part where I don't listen.

Neil!

[sighs]

Honey?

[telephone rings]

Mommy.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hey.

Easy. Easy. Hey.

How did I get here?

You don't remember?

Whoa!

[panting]

How did I get back here?

Uh, as soon as you left the car, you passed out.

You collapsed right in front of us.

No, that's not possible.

You don't remember?

I need a minute, please.

Yeah, sure.

[groaning]

Neil?

Christine?

What's happening?

I don't--

Where is it?

-What? -[winces]

This?

[panting]

I've heard of those things

healing the sick, healing worse.

You need to see a doctor.

If Neil were here--

He's not.

It was in your head,what you saw.

Neil didn't kill himself at the end of my dock.

Then what happened?

He, uh...

He showed me the video.

Why would he do that?

I--

He was freaking out when I found you in the bathroom.

He said he didn't know how or why,

and he was scared he would do it again.

And you'rejust telling me this now?!

If I saw a video of me putting hands on my daughter,

I'd wanna get as far away from her as possible.

Look, I know you don't trust me.

You don't even know me.

But whatever is going on with you,

you need to see a doctor.

I'll do it when I get back to the mainland.

You need a doctor from here.

[sighs] Christine.

[woman speaking Thai]

[doctor speaking Thai]

[speaking Thai]

Hmm. [speaking Thai]

You are pregnant.

[woman vocalizing]

That's not possible.

Our island is goodfor fertility.

Pregnant womenare sacred here.

Neil will be so happy.

Congratulations.

That's not happening.

There's no way.

[woman] Do you want to see?

[steady thumping]

Oh, my God.

That's amazing.

Is that the heartbeat?

-Yeah. -[laughs]

Doctor, this hallucination?

Nam Mun Prai?

No. No Nam Mun Prai.

[speaking Thai]

They said it wasn't possible.

-[squealing] -[gasps]

[gasping]

[growls]

-[speaking Thai] -What was that?

He wants you to relax. He's worried about you.

Oh, no. Don't you dare.

Don't you dare!

[speaking Thai]

Wait! Christine, wait! It's ok--

[announcer speaking Thai]

[alarm blaring]

What is this?

What's happening?

Storm. You need to leave.

I haven't found Neil yet.

My-- My husband.

No husband.

Ride?

Boat?

I-- No, I don't wanta ride or-- or a boat.

I need to find my husband,and then I'll get a ride.

[blaring continues]

Can I borrow your--your phone?

Your cell phone?

[sighs] No service.

Of course.

-[announcement playing in Thai] -[blaring continues]

[bell rings]

[door creaks]

Hello?

Kanda?

[rattling]

I'm pregnant.

Stop.You already know that.

There was a time when everybody didn't have a phone in their pocket.

[distorted laugh]

You were never meant to see what happened.

You would haveremained unaware.

I am brutally aware that my husband

forced himself on me and then strangled me.

Forced?

No, encouraged...

to create a new life.

Being pregnant,

there is no stronger spiritin our faith.

No, no, stop. I was dead, okay?

I saw the video. How am I standing here?

Not quite dead.Not quite living.

That necklace keepsthe scales from tipping

in the wrong direction.

Right now, you existon the spiritual plane,

where the spiritscan prepare youfor the final ritual.

I know this sounds--

Fucking insane? Yeah.

[sighs]

For hundreds of years,

they have beenburying pregnant women

under the postof the town square.

They believe that these sacrifices get them what they want,

to keep the island safe.

and tonight, they sacrifice you to stop the storm.

Oh, fuck that. I can't even believe

this conversation we're having right now.

Are you kidding me?

The man that I've loved since I was 19,

he conspired to kill me by order of these crazy people.

It wasn't him.

Nam Mun Prai...

corpse oil.

It can control your mind.

They gave it to Neil,and he buried youin our soil.

[Chakrii coughing]

My son, he doesn't have much time left,

days, maybe weeks.

I don't believe in their rituals.

I don't believe an unwilling sacrifice can stop the storm,

but I do believe in that.

It has the power to heal.

I can help you if you help my son.

Just give me the necklace--

No, not until youhelp me find my husband

and get usoff this fucking island.

Then you can havewhatever you want.

[vials clink]

[thumping]

Kanda?

Oh, no. Oh, no.

[panting]

[group chanting]

Run!

Oh, God. Oh, God.

[woman vocalizing]

Run.

[distant woman screams]

[vocalizing continues]

[blaring siren continues]

Hello?

Is anybody--

I need help.

Shit.

Excuse me.

Can you help me?

Can you help?

Excuse me.

I need--

[screams]

Excuse me!

I need a phone. Can you help me?

No, no, no.

Christine, oh, my God.

I've been lookingeverywhere for you.

-She's dead.-[announcement playing in Thai]

Who?

-Kanda. -God.

Come on.Let's get you out of here.

Are you taking me to the ferry?

Yeah. Come on.

Why are you dressed like them?

What, this?This is for the festival.

Come on. I just parkedover here. Let's go.

Right now, the typhoon is only 1 1/2 hours away,

so if you are still within the path of the typhoon,

then you need to evacuate

or get yourself to somewhere safe immediately.

If your power goes out, remain calm.

Mom, this isn't the way to the ferry.

It's a shortcut.

This is against the rules.

Nathida.

Sorry. She plays these games.

Sweetie, Mama needs to concentrate, okay?

She wants to goto the ferry.

You have to take her.

Stop the car.

I'm taking youto the ferry.

Stop lying.

Mommy...

she knows.

I'm not a bad person.

What happened to my husband?

You saw Kanda's son.

That's what happenswhen you only believewhen it's convenient.

This, this isthe real deal.

The real deal?

Ritual sacrifice?

Kanda used to believe, and her son was fine.

You're bat-shit fucking crazy.You know that?

-I love my daughter! -Your daughter?

Back there wasthe first timeyou ever saw an ultrasound.

[laughs]

She's not very good at this.

Shut up, Nathida!

Where's your Mom?

Stop lying.

Where is your Mom?

Down below.

She loved this island.

It was a sacrifice she was happy to make.

It's an honor.

You killed her mother?

I didn't do anything.

She volunteered.

She loved this island and her little girl.

I said I was sick when I came here.

Stage-three pancreatic cancer.

But here, there's no such thing as cancer,

heart attacks, stroke, not for those who believe.

That life growing inside of you

when it wasn't possible everywhere else...

Yeah. [chuckles] A gift this island gave you.

This is some bastardizedfanatical backwash

that you soulless motherfuckers came up with

to-- to feel like you have some kind of control,

that you have a sayin any of this!

Where the fuckis my husband?!

Your husband is dead, Christine.

He killed himself right in front of your eyes.

That is this island,

and its people believe in something

far greater than you or your fucking--

[grunts]

[car horn honking continuously]

[glass rattles]

[Nathida screams]

[group vocalizing]

[distorted singing in Thai]

Ms. Christine.

[growling]

What are we doing here?

[hiss]

[insects chirping]

Will you just let me go?

For generation, it was a great honor, Ms. Christine,

to be marked as celebrated.

And tonight we celebrate you.

We thank youfor your gift...

for our island.

[crowd cheers in Thai]

And at all times, people volunteer for this honor.

You should be proud.

Volunteer?

I didn't volunteer for this. Fuck you!

The drink, you asked for.

The necklace,you accept.

No. We had some shots,

and you put some stupid trinket around my neck.

You did that.

You had free will, Ms. Christine.

You could have left, but you chose to stay, find your husband.

[bindings creak]

There were boats, Ms. Christine.

I believe he offered you one.

[Madee chuckles]

Because free will is so essential.

Of course, something, free will is an illusion.

You saw Neil died,

but you chose not to leave.

No.

Did you just not run right to us right here

at our old city pillar?

[panting]

[creaks]

Don't fucking touch me.

I'm not pregnant, you motherfucker!

Pregnant, you very much are.

She is one part from your husband

and one part from this island.

No, what did you put inside me?

[creaks]

Island magic.

[speaking Thai]

[crowd cheers in Thai]

I never had free will.

[panting]

If I have free will, untie me.

You don't haveto believe it...

but we do.

We will honor our gods.

[panting]

[screaming]

[whoops]

[distant screaming]

What are we doing here?

It's a girl.

[groaning]

[sighs]

[chuckles]

You're goingto be a great Dad.

She's gonna do amazing things.

Both of you are gonna do amazing things.

But I need you to wake up.

I wanna stay here.

Wake up!

[screams]

[groaning]

[islanders yelling]

[Madee screams]

Stop! It has to be her choice!

Stay back!

Stay the fuck back.

You, where's your boat?

You!

If you go, I'll die.

They'll all die.

It's not real, Nathida. It's just a storm.

-It is real! -No!

Come with me.

Save us, Christine.

[woman singing in Thai]

[reporter] Reports are coming in from Thailand

that super typhoon Maicala

has bypassed the majority of the islands,

with the exception of the tiny island

of Little Ko Kut.

[reporter 2] Ko Kut hasn't seen a storm

of this magnitude in over 200 years,

so long, in fact, that they advertise this to tourists.
