and enjoy this food

before it gets cold, OK?

OK.

[Brandon]:
Ellie...

Not yet.

Ellie...

[Tamara]:
I can't go in there.

I can't.

You go.

You talk to them.

Tell them I didn't mean it.

Tell them I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to.

Don't go! Please!

Ellie! Ellie!

Please help me! Please!

[ Indistinct voices ]

[Woman]:
Ellie,

I need your help.

Do you hear them calling?

They're calling for you.

They need you just

like that little girl.

Just like me.

There are more, Ellie. More than

you can possibly imagine.

Who are you, and how

do you know my name?

It's like blood in the water.

They can sense you.

They can feel you.

And they're coming.

Stop right there.

Don't come any closer.

They will seek you out.

They will find you.

And when they're ready, they'll

reveal themselves to you.

You can give them.

You can give us the one thing

we want more than anything.

The one thing we can

A voice.

You can give us a voice.

No. This isn't happening.

Please, don't be afraid.

I won't hurt you.

Please.

Why?

Why me?

It's the light, Ellie.

You touched the light.

Or maybe more to the point,

the light touched you.

My name is Dwayne.

I mean you no harm.

I don't want to scare you.

But I need your help.

[ Bell over door ringing

Come on. It's OK.

Hi. Can I help you?

Yeah. Hi.

You're Matthew, right?

I'm sorry.

I know you're going

to think I'm crazy,

but I have a message for you.

From your brother.

From Dwayne.

I'm sorry, miss.

You must be mistaken.

My brother died.

In Vietnam.

A long time ago.

Come on. What are

you waiting for?

I'm sorry.

This was a mistake.

Ellie, please.

Don't go.

Do you have any idea

how long I've waited

for a chance like this?

OK. I'm sorry.

I know this must

sound crazy but...

he's here.

OK, what are you?

A psychic or something?

No. Believe, me.

This has never happened

to me before.

I need you to talk to my mother.

Her name's Mary.

Mary?

Mary?

Could you come out

here for a second?

She doesn't remember.

Tell her about the pictures

she keeps by her bed.

He wants me to tell you about

a picture you keep by your bed.

It's of all of us, taken after

a softball game when I was 8.

It was taken on a day you

all played a softball game.

Of Cub Scouts.

Matt and I look angry

because the moms just

whipped our butts 10-0.

I remember how...

...years later you

all had a good laugh

when you told them

that the moms tried everything

you could not to win

but the boys were so lousy,

you couldn't help it.

Please tell her, Ellie...

that I'm here.

Tell her that I know.

Even now,

even after all these

He wants me to tell you that

he knows there's still

a tiny little part of you
