No One Lives

(woman screams )

- ( footsteps rustling )

- ( woman screams )

(woman grunting, panting )

( screams )

( grunting, panting )

Help me!

Wait! Help!

No!

Argh!

No!

( Screaming )

( grunting, sobbing )

( screaming )

( music playing on radio )

I don't know.

It's just not gonna be the same.

Trust me, it will be the same.

I'm going to miss everyone.

You saw everybody.

Sometimes it's necessary

to relocate.

Don't make it seem

like it's not your fault.

Out of every bad situation

comes something good.

Don't you agree?

You have a truly demented way

of looking at things.

If I didn't,

I don't think you'd be

so in love with me.

( Chuckles )

Don't flatter yourself.

I'm tired.

Let's stop somewhere

for the night.

( Pings )

Hey now.

Please don't tell me

you're here for directions.

I got 15 rooms,

all with your name on 'em.

Well, good news is,

I know exactly where I'm going.

The bad news is,

I only need one room.

Well, I'll take what I can get.

I just need a credit card.

Wow.

Pretty, young-

- Just the way I like 'em.

- Yeah.

Well, that's an unusual name.

Yeah.

My father had a unforgiving commitment

to historical reference.

Oh. Well, let's just

get you fixed up, huh?

How does number 8

sound to you?

Infinity-- I like it.

TV anchorman:

...Jet fighters bombed a guerilla base,

killing at least 49 soldiers

and 13 civilians.

- Man:
There it is again.

- Anchor:
Up next, local law enforcement

and the FBI are scouring

the area north of Spokane

for any evidence that can lead them

to missing heiress Emma Ward.

Officer:
From what we can tell,

the carving's about six months old.

It reads "Emma alive."

It's impossible to get

an accurate date,

but tree growth on that particular alder

indicate about a half a year,

probably done in the spring,

right around--

well, after her abduction.

- Clever girl.

- Anchor:
Joining us now in the studio

- is the former FBI investigator...

- You think?

Anchor:
...who has worked

many similar cases.

I don't think I would have

thought to do that.

Anchor:
What are the FBI agents

dealing with...

Now she has a chance.

- There's always a chance.

- FBI agent:
...as much information...

(TV off)

But you know how these things

turn out.

Take off the towel.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for everything.

A man who lacks emotion

is sorry.

I don't lack emotion.

I just process it differently.

Must everything about you

be different?

I like normal.

I would change if I could,

but I can't.

I just can't.

Just tell me you don't love her

more than me.

I don't love her more than you.

I never did.

It was just different.

( Birds chirping )

( rock music playing )

- Burly man:
Put some muscle in it.

- ( grunts )

Youth:

That's easy for you to say.

( Burly man chuckles )

You gotta be kidding.

Jack, can you do me a favor

and go open the gate?

Why?

Why? Because the gate

won't open.

( Chuckles )

I need you to open it, please.

- ( Jack sighs )

- Thank you.

( Music continues )

Trouble! Trouble!

Ho!

( Sighs )

Home sweet home.

- Man:
Who are these guys?

- Woman:
Honey.

Mind my lead.

Let me do the talking.

Talking? Don't you think

it's a little late for talking?

Hand me-- give me the phone.

- ( Woman screaming )

- Youth:
What's he doing?

- Youth:
What is he doing?

- Woman:
Flynn, stop it!

Woman:

Flynn, what the f***?

What the f***, man?

Argh! Motherf***er.

Woman:

Enough!

- Flynn:
Damn it!

- Ethan:
Come on, man. Get up.

Your problem, Flynn,

is you don't f***ing think.

- He had a phone.

- You have a phone.

Should I shoot you?

Every cop in the county

heard that racket.

You made a mess here, Flynn.

Excuse me for saving

our f***ing asses.

I mean, what did you think

was gonna happen?

That we'd just sit down and have

a cup of tea with the Cleavers?

Woman:
You told us

they were on vacation, Flynn.

Flynn:
Well, now

they're on permanent vacation.

- Woman:
F*** this.

- This is so seriously f***ed up.

- Woman:
Sh*t.

- Is he f***ing crying?

- Are you f***ing crying?

- Youth:
What did you do?

Ethan, let's shut it down.

Shut it down? Shut it down?

- What about all the-?

- He said shut it down.

Like we were never here.

Come on, let's go.

I had to.

I'm hungry-

So go eat.

And leave you here alone?

Right.

Why don't you go have dinner

with your girlfriend?

Would you be rational?

I know what you were doing

out there.

You're wrong.

(drill whirring)

Hey, where do you suggest

we eat tonight?

Let's see, uh...

go up here about 20 miles

and take a right on Highway 21.

There's a place called Helen's--

great food, delicious steaks.

Great. Thanks.

This old boy treating you well?

All right, then.

You kids enjoy yourself

and I'll see you when you get back.

Man:

This is all about her, isn't it?

Woman:
Can you possibly imagine

it being about anybody else?

Man:
Can we just enjoy

a pleasant dinner?

( Door lock chirps )

Woman:
Doesn't look like we'll have

trouble finding a table.

Man:
Note to self--

"Do not order the fish."

(woman chuckles )

Man:

Aha. A sign of forgiveness?

Woman:

Don't get carried away.

( Man chuckles )

( cowbell rattles )

( music playing softly )

( cowbell rattles )

Get yourself comfortable.

Sit anywhere you like.

It's awful quiet these months.

Amber will be right with you.

Amber, table!

Hey there.

I'm Amber.

Today's fish is a terrific
