What happened?

Here. Let me take him.

Come on.

Come on. Come on. You're freakin' me out.

- No.

- Penny.

- I'm fine.

- Hey, hey.

- I'm okay. I'm okay.

- Talk to me.

What just happened in there?

Don't yell at me, all right?

I'm tired and I'm... I'm scared.

What are you scared of?

I saw...

What?

Somebody in the house.

It was through the mirror.

She ran by and then she was gone.

I don't know. Maybe I was asleep.

I can't even see straight anymore.

I'm losing it, too.

They say people start to hallucinate.

It's a fact.

I googled it.

I don't know if I can

stand much more of this.

I need to sleep.

I mean, how long has it been?

Five days?

Something like that.

I've lost track.

It'll get better.

I promise.

Get out!

Penny?

Penny.

Penny.

Wake up.

God! What?

What's going on?

You okay?

Yeah.

I just had a really weird dream.

At least you're sleeping.

Can you turn out the light?

Oh, God.

I can handle it.

I can handle it.

I know we haven't known each other,

just maybe a few months now,

but normally I'm not a train wreck.

You know, I'm actually really fun.

Like, not like party girl fun, but fun.

Damn it!

Pretend you didn't see that.

If daddy sells one of his demos...

He'll pay for therapy.

For both of us.

Hey, Alex. It's Michael. Friday.

I left a message

for you the other day.

How's the house?

All that peace and quiet

driving you crazy yet?

Johanna and I would love to come down

and check the place out.

I'm sure you're ready to get drunk

and admit that you screwed up.

Because you know

you screwed up, right?

Big time. What were you thinking?

This is your life now.

Your whole entire life

is nothing but that house.

You haven't written a demo,

not one verse, not one note

of music the whole time

you've been here.

You just stagger around like a zombie,

having nightmares about a woman,

because she told you

she saw a woman in the house.

She put it in your head

and now look at you.

Is that what you wanted?

What the hell are you doing?

Did you not see

Tanner sitting here right in front of you?

Why did you leave him

at the top of the stairs?

I didn't put him there!

You're telling me that you didn't

put him in the wagon and

set him right there?

Yes, I put him in the wagon,

but I had him in the nursery.

You just said you didn't put him in there.

Did you or did you not...

I didn't put him

at the top of the stairs, Alex!

Okay. You have got to

manage this situation better, all right?

I did not put him at

the top of the stairs, Alex!

You just said you put him in the wagon!

I didn't.

You're walking around in a complete stupor!

- Okay, I gotta get outta here.

- It was probably you!
