Dream House Page #2

It's okay, it's okay.

Who peed their pants?

You did!

Did you pee your pants?

You did.

Did you pee your pants?

You did.

Come on.

You okay?

Mmm-hmm.

Come on, you're

worried about something.

Tell me what's going on.

You're so beautiful.

Stay like that forever.

Sorry. No, not possible,

not forever.

Shucks.

Mommy's sad.

Daddy, aren't you

gonna kill us again?

What are you doing?

Go, go!

Sh*t!

Sh*t.

Get up!

What were you

doing in there?

We didn't know

anybody lived here!

I live there!

Well, you scared

the sh*t out of me!

Well, what were you

doing down there?

It's 'cause of the murders.

What murders?

You live here,

and you don't know

about the murders?

The snowstorm?

In April?

Come on, man,

the whole family

got murdered!

Have you been looking

in through my windows?

He's back.

That is him.

He's back.

Who's back?

He's back.

That is him!

Sweet!

He's back!

Jerk.

Hey. What...

Who is it?

It's nothing, Libby.

It's just some kids.

They were just messing

about. Go back to bed.

I'll be up in a minute.

Okay.

The department doesn't

close unsolved homicides,

so, officially,

the case is

still open.

But I've only

been on the job

a couple of years,

so I don't know a lot

about the old cases.

You must be able to

tell me something.

I mean, who did it,

for Christ's sake?

Well, the focus came

down on the father.

Peter Ward.

He went a little nuts.

I thought you said

the whole family

were killed.

Well, the family was shot.

The father survived.

So he's still alive?

I don't really know.

Well, where is he?

I don't know.

Look. You can let me

look at the case files

and then...

I can't do that.

It's police business. No.

I'll do it on my own.

Well, if you're not

gonna do it, I'll do it.

We can't hand it out

to the general public.

Well, I'm hardly

the general public, am I?

I mean, I bought

the crime scene,

for Christ's sake!

New Ashford is

a safe town now, okay?

So you got nothing

to worry about.

Have a nice day.

Take care now.

Libby?

Libby?

In here.

What's going on?

She heard the kid

from across the

street on her cell.

What did she say?

Everybody who lives

in this house

gets killed.

Oh, God Almighty.

Why would she say

something like that?

I told them we'd wait

till Daddy got home.

Okay. Let me...

Hi, there. Hi.

Look, were you

talking on your phone

near our house just now?

I just...

Mom!

Can I just...

Hi! I'm Will Atenton

from across the street.

I wanted... Can I...

Can I...

Hi. Um, look, we...

We just found out

what happened

in our house.

I didn't mean

to upset your daughter,

but I think she might

have been talking

with some friends

on the phone,
