Nightlight
1
I had a bad couple of days,
a few days...
I actually had
a suicide attempt.
Um...
anti-depressants.
Sometimes I think I should
just take this flashlight
and... just go out to
Covington and disappear.
My friend has seen some of these
videos that I've recorded,
And she made us this.
Matching key chains.
It's a picture of us from
middle school at a dance.
And it's really nice of her.
Um... She's one of
the best people I know.
I think I'm going
to ask her to the dance.
Maybe things will
change after that.
Who knows?
You stupid fucking flashlight.
Piece of shit.
How am I supposed to play
flashlight games
my flashlight doesn't work?
OK.
You're fine.
Damn it.
All right.
Stop crying.
forget about him.
Hey!
Hey, boy.
According to Facebook...
Ben likes... sports.
And he likes rock climbing.
He likes Abercrombie & Fitch.
I know.
so you are going
to be my wing man. OK?
OK? OK? OK.
Good boy. You're such a...
Damn it.
Hey, Ben.
Hey, how you doing? Yeah.
Not how you doing...
How are...
Thank you for
inviting me to play
flashlight games with you guys.
Oh, it's going to be
so scary in Covington.
Oh, that sounds
fucking desperate.
OK. Um...
- Hey guys.
- Hold on.
Can we just talk about
our faces for a second?
- Hi, puppy.
- What up?
Hey, what's your name?
Robin.
I was talking to the dog.
Oh no, I know.
Yeah, that's Kramer.
Well, If you could
keep Kramer away from me,
that would be sweet.
It looks like you were crying.
No, no.
No, I wasn't, I wasn't crying.
I was just, like...
I was laughing so hard
so my eyes were watering.
Does he know any tricks?
I think it's kind of weird
that you brought a dog.
- It's not weird.
- It's weird.
- It's not weird.
- It's weird.
Does anybody know
when Ben's coming?
Why?
- What?
- I said why?
I'm just, I'm just wondering.
You are so weird.
I'm just wondering when
everybody's coming.
Uh huh. You're wondering
when everybody's coming?
Or are you wondering
when Ben is coming?
Very funny. Can I have
my flashlight back please?
Everybody knows you have
a f*ck crash on Ben.
Is it because he's British?
No I don't, I don't,
I don't like Ben.
- Hi Ben.
- Hey.
Hey Ben.
Aah!
Hey boy.
Are you excited?
I know we said
Lincoln Forest. But, uh...
it's going to be
way cooler in Covington.
Yeah, I've always wanted to play
flashlight games with you guys.
I brought my own flashlight.
Ooh, she brought
her own flashlight.
Whoa. Where did
you find the dog?
- Hey Kramer, buddy.
- So Ben, you've...
you've played
Nightlight before right?
- How does it...?
- Oh, by the way...
How does it work?
Is it like hide and seek?
- 'Cause...
- Robin.
'cause I am
awesome at that game.
Yo, Robin.
Do you work at the
Me?
Yeah.
Yeah, Cathy told me
that she thought
she saw you yesterday
cleaning counters or something.
No. No, I
wouldn't work there...
Memorize the Wikipedia page?
Funny.
Guys? How much
further are we going?
It's kind of
good marketing I guess.
Like, you're not cool unless
you kill yourself in Covington.
We're not going
to the church are we?
A fucking possum.
Ah!
People come
here to die, it's so pretty.
Maybe it's the altitude.
Like it makes people do things
they don't want to do.
The only thing that makes me do
things I don't want to do...
is vagina.
Not mine.
Are you OK?
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm cool.
No you're not.
Oh, my God. The
scariest shit I've ever heard.
What?
