Beyond the Gates Page #3

---

Look out, Bickle,

don't point that thing at me.

Jesus, what the hell

did dad have that for?

Probably to shoot stuff.

Huh.

What do we have here?

Hm.

"Beyond the Gates."

Huh.

Looks like somebody

was playing it recently.

Oh, sh*t.

I wonder why he brought that back here.

Maybe it has something on it

he doesn't want anybody to see.

Then we should watch it.

Uh, maybe we shouldn't.

Oh, come on, man,

aren't you curious

what dad was watching

the last time he was back here?

I mean, maybe it's not even

the tape from the game.

Maybe that's just the label,

maybe...

What if it's a sex tape?

That's even worse.

Do you really wanna see

dad having sex with mom?

I mean, who knows, man,

it could be your first home video.

Oh, John. i/

Welcome, curious viewers. i/

Are you ready to step

into the ultimate nightmare? i/

A world of unimaginable horror i/

with deadly consequences. i/

Have you the courage

to go Beyond the Gates? i/

You may now open

your game board. i/

Dude, turn it off,

turn it off.

What was that?

Why the hell

was he keeping that back here?

I think because it causes seizures?

Or because that lady

was f***ing smoking hot.

I think I want it.

Well, it's, it's yours now.

- How long were we in there?

- I have no idea.

Oh, sh*t, it's 5:00 already.

Really?

What are you doing for dinner?

Oh, are you, you gonna

invite me over to dinner

'cause you don't want

your girlfriend to yell at you

'cause you're late?

Yes.

I don't know, it's tough

'cause it's like McDonald's

or roll the dice

on the G-man's home cooking.

I don't know.

You'll be happy to know

that Margot's the one

handling food tonight.

Alright, yeah, you're on.

- See you at the house.

- Yeah, see ya.

Somebody's hungry.

I know, yeah.

This is, this is delicious.

- Oh, thanks.

- Mm-hmm. Yeah.

So your friend was interesting.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, he can get

pretty riled up sometimes.

Don't tell me you go

pick up girls with that guy.

What?

What, he's not that bad.

I'm pretty sure

he's a date rapist.

So, John,

what do you do for work?

Oh, you know,

just like, uh, odd jobs

and helping out, uh

with errands and things

for people.

Well, like a, like an assistant?

Yeah, exactly.

Um, so how was

your first night here?

Oh, my God.

I haven't slept that well

in months.

Really?

I didn't stumble out of bed

once. It's great.

What do you mean,

like, sleepwalking?

Well, ahem,

she's been taking Ambien

to keep her down at night

with mixed results.

- Really?

- Yeah.

I was having nightmares

after I hurt my wrists

so the doctor

prescribed it to me.

After you hurt your, what?

How did that happen?

I fell.

So how was, um,

the store today?
