If its gonna bother anyone...

You know, we don't have to.

Do what you were gonna do.

All right, Abby.

Grab the edge of the table

and lift it to make an incline.

Little higher.

What the f***?

That is not a black box.

You shouldn't have brought

that here.

It's just a f***ing black

ball. Who knows what it is?

That is exactly why

you shouldn't have taken it.

What if it is

a military thing?

Absolutely. It could be

something experimental.

A prototype.

So, why do we want that?

- What if it's worth something?

- So it's about the money?

I don't know but it could be

worth a lot.

And if it isn't,

I just wanna know what it is.

What if it's dangerous?

Dangerous how? That you

might step on it and slip?

What if it's radioactive

or something?

- Are you kidding me right now?

- I don't know.

Listen, its fine. I promise.

If at any time, it seems like

it might be dangerous,

we'll contact the authorities.

- The authorities?

- The police.

The f***ing army. Whatever.

We'll hand it right off.

But it might be

worth something

and how will we know unless

we find out what it is first?

This could be good for us.

Help pay for this house

that you love so much.

Okay. If it seems dangerous

at any point, it's gone.

- Abby.

- It's fine.

Now, I'm not scared of...

Whatever it is.

Neither am I.

Rebecca?

Calvin? Calvin?

Calvin!

Honey, what's wrong?

I...

My God... I had a nightmare.

It's okay.

You're awake now.

So, nobody knocked these over?

Honey, I swear.

As much as I like to avoid

incurring the wrath of Abby,

I would not lie

about this one.

I didn't do it.

Oh, my God. I'm really gonna

be late. Vinny's gonna kill me.

Have a good day at work,

honey.

You too. Love you.

Oh, Rebecca, feel free to dig into

the books or movies if you get bored.

Thanks. See you later.

I gotta go too.

I'm sorry

it's so busy this morning.

I didn't sleep well last

night, I lost track of time.

It's fine.

If you need anything, call me.

And if you can't get a hold of me,

Calvin's number is on the fridge.

All right.

Just make yourself at home.

- Thank you.

- Yup.

Hmm-mmm.

Hmm-mmm.

Hello.

Abby.

Wow! Hi, Aunt Linda.

Been a while

since we've spoken.

What's up?

I was checking in on Rebecca. She

hasn't been answering her phone.

Well, she's been doing great.

Really great. I love having

her here. It's just like old...

And your mother's ashes?

Uh...

We took care

of that right away.

Rebecca and I did it together.

Good.

We took them up to the old cabin

and we spread them out on the...

You did what?

Oh! We poured them into

the lake at the cabin.

Aunt Linda?

What did you think

you were doing?

I don't understand?
