The Unwilling Page #2

Synopsis: When five relatives come to the perfectly ordered home of David Harris, a shut in, to hear the reading of the will of his hated father, they are surprised by the delivery of an old antique box. Once activated, the box starts to reveal special items to each one in turn, which lead to surprising and mysterious deaths. As each person succumbs to the box's mysterious hold on them, David fears his father's dangerous spirit has returned from the dead demanding retribution. But he soon realizes something far more ancient and terrifying has invaded his protected home, and if he can't solve the puzzle of the devilish box, he will surely die with the rest of them, all entombed in his house forever.

Yeah.

I'm sorry about your father.

Thank you.

I'm sorry about the divorce.

You know, you grow up,

you get past it, time heals,

and it makes room

for great things to happen,

like my fiance, Cheryl.

This is David.

It's really great to meet you.

Hi. Really great to meet you.

He's a very lucky man.

And so are you.

Not that you're a man, 'cause...

you're not a man.

You're a woman.

Ok, why don't you guys

come on in,

make yourselves at home,

and I'll be there in a sec.

Ok?

He seems

like a pretty normal guy.

Strike that.

Soap. One, two, three.

Water. One, two, three.

They'll only be here

an hour or three.

Just an hour or three.

[doorbell and knocking]

I think

there's someone at the door!

I'll get it!

[doorbell]

There he is!

Hey, David,

is there a lawyer

coming from the estate?

- I don't know.

- Michelle is coming, right?

Yeah.

How exactly do you make money

if you can't leave the house?

Will you all please shut up?

I'm sorry.

What is it?

A box.

You're gonna pick it up?

- Maybe you should.

- Yeah. I've got this, boss.

[doorbell]

- Why don't you let me get it?

- Thank you.

- Ok.

- Ok.

So sorry, I'm late.

It's just you have such an

adorable little town here,

and I just couldn't help myself,

and I picked up

a couple of things for...

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm Michelle.

- I'm Cheryl.

- Cheryl.

I'm here with Rich.

Rich is here?

- Hey, Michelle.

- Hi.

How are you?

So great to see you.

These do not go here.

That's right,

I should have known.

- Silly me.

- Right.

I just picked up

a couple of groceries.

Well, that was

very thoughtful of you.

Well, actually, is just...

I mean, you don't have

anything that I like.

- You look great!

- Oh, do I?

Thank you, sweetie.

God, this whole thing must be

absolutely awful for you.

Let's just get through it

as quickly as we...

Hi, Michelle.

It's good to see you.

I'm surprised you didn't

tell me you were coming.

I thought you knew.

I was surprised

when they called me.

Look, I'm not here

to make a problem.

You met Cheryl?

I did.

It would have been nice

to know you were coming.

Kelly!

- Hi, Michelle!

- Hi! Oh, my gosh!

God, it has been forever!

You look great.

This is gorgeous.

Oh, you know,

your mother gave it to me?

Really?

How are you, how's the job?

Junior partner.

Killing my social life.

I don't see

you have a nicer car.

What the hell

is this supposed to be?

Is it some kind of joke?

Jesus, what is that smell?

No letter came with it.

Maybe the will

is inside the box.

There's no opening.

Nobody makes a box

that doesn't open.

Jesus!

What the hell was that?

What was that?

What's that, f***ing fracking?
