Silent House
Hey, sweetie. Hey, Dad.
I hit the Internet cafe.
You know how many e-mails
I had in my box?
Eighty-three.
Oh, you're a popular guy.
Very.
Of course, 60 of 'em were ads
trying to get me to buy something.
Sarah, did you leave
these tools on the ground?
I might have.
Let's get them in the bag and
bring them in the house, please.
We don't want it
to rain on them.
Oh, I checked
your Facebook page.
What's-his-name
wrote on your wall again.
God, I should
never have added you.
Yeah, he, um.
Wants to get back together.
Of course he does.
I told you. Princess,
he doesn't deserve you.
There you are.
And there you are. Here I am.
Mmm-hmm.
Hey, we have a problem.
I've barely been gone
an hour. What now?
You'll see.
Great. Do I have to? Yeah.
Hey, I was looking for you.
Did you go into town?
Mmm-mmm. I didn't think so.
Where were you? Outside.
JOHN:
Working veryhard on the garden.
Hmm. We have a garden?
(CLEARING THROAT)
I had a headache.
Haven't you heard that one before?
(PETER LAUGHS)
I did!
I know, honey.
Are you all better now?
JOHN:
So, what isthe big problem?
All right, all right. This way.
Why can't you just
tell me about it?
No, this is something
you have to see.
(ROCK MUSIC PLAYING ON STEREO)
I'll give you a hint.
It's in here.
JOHN:
Funny.What do you think?
How are you supposed to
tell anything from that?
What, do you need
binoculars, old man?
Just get your face up there.
Look in there.
Okay. Oh.
That's really...
ls this necessary?
I made a hole! What are you...
(SARAH LAUGHS)
Are you impressed with your dad?
I'm impressed with your dad.
JOHN:
Now that, littlebrother, is a hole.
PETER:
Nicely done.That is not good.
No, not good.
SARAH:
What is it?Oh, it's mold.
Honey, you know what, I want you to stand back.
This is really bad.
I don't want you breathing it in.
It can make you really sick.
Just looking at it
is making me sick.
infected, for all we know.
Affected, not infected.
Affected, infected, whatever.
Well, if you cover it up,
who'll ever know, right?
That's true. Just a minute ago
we had a tiny hole to deal with.
Now we have a big hole.
Well, the insurance
will cover it.
It's obviously
part of the leak.
(SIGHS) Did you remember
to bring the...
(POLAROID WHIRRING)
So what do you want to do?
Why are you asking me?
We're out of here in a few days.
Oh, okay. See here, this
is where it gets tricky.
You're gonna dump
But it comes with the perk
of you not being here.
So, dare I complain?
It's what you do best.
All right, I'll deal with it.
Just don't give me shit later
when you find out how.
Well, if you do it right the
first time, I won't have to.
Have you checked the wall all
the way down to the basement?
I just figured out
that it got down here.
Okay, come on.
Bring the work light, please.
(LAUGHS) Have fun.
(LAUGHING SPOOKILY)
SARAH:
(LAUGHING) UnclePeter, don't do that!
Come on. You used to love that
when you were a little girl.
JOHN:
Any day now!Coming!
(GROWLS PLAYFULLY)
How are you, Sarah?
I'm okay. Yeah?
Yeah. How are you?
(LAUGHS) Look at you.
I can't get over
how grown up you are.
JOHN:
You gonnacome down here or what?
Bite me! See you later.
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
(KNOCKING CONTINUES)
(FAINT RATTLING)
Sarah? Yeah.
Wow, I can't believe
you're here!
You don't remember me, do you?
I'm so embarrassed.
I'm Sophia.
We used to play together.
Oh, of course. Yeah.
How are you?
