Cam, that's enough out of you.

I'm already fighting

with your brother.

I'm not gonna fight

with you too.

I need your help.

Okay.

- Someone's out there.

- What?

Where?

Where the swings at.

God dammit, Justin.

Why won't you talk to me?

Stop this, it's me. It's Sam.

You have to know

that I still love you.

Okay, all I care about

is our future.

- Together. You, me and Zoey.

- Where's the baby?

What?

Zoey's downstairs sleeping.

Not for long.

What?

Hey!

Why would you say that?

That's your baby.

Your little girl.

- Don't you care?

- Of course, I care.

My brothers and sisters,

we need all the babies

we can get.

They are the future after all.

You're on private property.

It's time to move on.

Did you hear what I said?

Hey!

F***.

What?

Justin,

why are you acting like this?

You're scaring me.

The hell are you doing?

What just happened?

Dad?

Kathy, I need you

to call the police.

Tell them to get up here

as fast as they can.

You're not going out there.

- I'm going with you.

- Campbell, no.

- What was that?

- The cars.

Let's go.

You lock this door behind me.

Okay.

Okay.

Jimmy.

Jimmy!

What do you want?

Now, let's go. Go. Go!

- Mom, open the door.

- Sh*t.

- Where's Jimmy?

- There are people out there.

What people?

- Oh, my god.

- They've come for me.

My brothers and sisters,

they've come for me.

Did you get through

to the police?

The phone's dead.

Someone cut the line.

Andrew, who the hell

is out there?

Justin's cult.

He said they've come

to take him back.

Oh, god.

Right, Kathy.

You make sure

the kitchen windows are locked,

alright.

- Campbell, get my tool box.

- Okay.

Samantha,

there's some kerosene lanterns

- in the hallway.

- Okay.

We need to gather

everything that we can

- that can be used as a weapon.

- Well, how many of them

are there out there?

- I don't know.

- Are there three of them?

- Are there 30 of them?

- I don't know.

- Can we try talking to them?

- We tried that, mom.

Okay, these are crazy people.

You've heard about what they do.

- They already got Jimmy.

- What?

What do you mean?

What happened?

We don't know.

Oh, my god.

Here.

Knives.

How far is the closest neighbor?

At least a mile away.

I need to change her diaper.

Okay.

I'll go with you.

- Okay.

- I'm gonna go

- check on Justin.

- Yeah.

Hey, son.

You okay?

Just wanted

to bring you some light.

Remember when I brought

that lava lamp in here

for you and your brother?

I thought that maybe

you might be scared of the dark.

Turned out that your brother

was scared of the lava lamp.

- Anything?

- No, nothing.

I think if these a**holes

were serious they would've done

something by now.
