Annie.

Liam!

Liam!

Liam!

Sh*t!

Where are you?!

Please!

Help me!

Rob, are you sure it's all right

me staying here tonight?

I mean, people don't really want

a stranger hanging around after...

You live here now, mate.

Sorry, mate.

I know you and her were, like...

Look, I'm all right.

Come on.

- We got any of that grass left?

- No.

I need some. My heart's

beating like a f***ed watch.

- For Christ's sake, Spence.

- Sorry.

Look, maybe I should go and see

McCann, see if I can get something.

What, now?

You're just gonna go and leave me?

- Yeah. Come with me. It won't take long.

- Spence, I'm in shock.

My friend has just died.

All right.

Well, she was my friend, too, but

I really need something to calm me down.

Lucy, come with me.

I'll be ten minutes, OK?

Bet you wish you'd never

taken the room now.

We won't contact bad spirits, will we?

"A djinn's natural form

is composed of fire,

although it may possess a human

if summoned without a shaman. "

"One can cure the possession

with a banishing. "

Don't take your fiinger

off the glass until I say so.

Why?

We'll be slamming the door shut

before the spirit can return to his world.

- No!

- No, don't!

Sh*t!

Oh, God help us.

Spence?

Spence?

Sh*t!

Oh, sh*t!

What you doin'?

- Spence, is that you?!

- What you doin' on my boat?

- You want trouble, you found it!

- Chill out.

- Yeah?

- Who are you?

- I came to tell you the electric's down.

- I'm not connected to the electric.

I didn't know that, did I? I'm just

trying to help you out, you stupid cow.

Get off.

Whoa.

Hey, he really scared you, didn't he?

It wasn't him.

There was something here.

- It was that bloke wandering around.

- No. It was something else.

Spence, I don't wanna be here any more.

All right.

Let's get your stuff. Come on.

Couldn't you sleep?

I went out.

To get some cigarettes.

I just kept thinking...

if only I'd gone with her.

I must have walked straight past her.

You're right.

We shouldn't tell them.

It's best. You're already shaken up.

Look, don't think about it

and don't say anything.

- All right?

- All right, mate?

We didn't wanna stay on the boat.

- Are you all right?

- Yeah.

It's just I think we should all

be together tonight, don't you?

Yeah, definitely. Come in.

Cheers.

- How'd she get the burns?

- Can we not think about that now?

I can't help wondering

what was going through her head.

She'd still be alive if we hadn't messed

around with things we didn't understand.

- Stella, that doesn't make sense.

- No?

No. Annie was killed by some psycho on

the roof. We didn't invite him to that party.

- Are you saying there's no connection?

- You think there is?
