She has a fever.

We tried to leave 23 times.

Was it that many?

Do you think she was trying

to leave and couldn't?

I don't know.

Would you please be quiet?

I can say whatever I want.

I can't be stuck here!

I don't think any of us

want to be stuck here.

We need to be patient,

because someone is gonna come.

Some of us have a life, OK?

We do!

Oh, Jesus.

[door opens]

[door closes]

I got to get some wood.

[flashlight clicks on]

[owl hoots]

Was that just sitting there?

Yeah.

I was rude.

It's just that...

I start a new shift on Monday.

We can't be stuck here. Right?

I hope not.

What do you do?

I was a third grade teacher...

before kids.

Is he your only one?

He is now.

Someone was here today.

There's fresh shaving cream

upstairs.

Look at this.

Seven cans.

Just enough.

JASON:
Wow.

That's wonderfully creepy.

Gross.

Your mother's really scared.

She's not my mom.

You don't like her.

I can tell.

Jason.

I'm sorry, hon.

No, no, it's fine.

I don't like her.

[door opens]

So, uh, where's your mom?

Hello!

Shut up, Jason.

So how'd you break your leg?

Car crash.

-Yeah?

-Yeah.

Didn't get a ticket, though.

I was able to drive home,

even with a broken leg.

Lucky you.

I'll take the first watch.

Wake you in a few hours.

Want to sleep next to me?

I was just messing around.

Welcome to lot number 6485.

Feel free to take

a look around.

Press the buttons

on the speakers

you see around the house

to hear about this great place!

I think you'll like

what you see!

Welcome to lot number 6485.

Feel free to take

a look around.

Press the buttons

on the speakers...

[recording repeats over itself]

JASON:
Turn that sh*t off!

Feel free

to take a look around.

I think you'll like

what you see.

Press the buttons

on the speakers you see

around the house...

Where's the girl?

Welcome to lot number 6485.

I think you'll like

what you see.

Feel free to take

a look around.

If the girl goes outside,

she could die.

Son of a b*tch, that's him!

Don't go out there!

What if he's chasing after her?

Then we need to have a talk.

Don, stop it! Don't go out!

Stubborn!

Hey!

Stop!

Sh*t!

Where did they go?

Dad!

Get back to the house!

Get back to the house!

That's him, that's they guy

from the restaurant!

I met that guy.

He told me about this place.

Let's get back to the house.

Come on.

I'm going to try

and walk to the road.

But that thing is out there!

Come on, come on,

it'll be--it'll be OK.

Get back, get back to the house.

[Jason yelling]

JASON:
...you b*tch!

What are you doing?

JASON:
You have no idea

what the f*** she's doing!

Wait till you see what I found!

[all yelling]

Come with me.
