That I like to call

"knock knock".

You ready? All right.

Go, and ready, and wakey-wakey!

There we go, that's a good

little boy.

Here he comes.

He's so confused.

Why isn't he moving?

I don't know. Let's speed

up the door.

Okay.

What the f***?

Where's he going?

Why doesn't he care

about the door?

Not in his bedroom.

He's not outside, I...

The garage.

Sh*t. I told you we

needed a camera in there.

I mean, this is one of these

vital moments where...

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Is that...

Jesus f***ing Christ.

He's f***ing crazy.

Holy sh*t.

What the f***?

Is he... is he looking at us?

Holy sh*t, dude!

Hold on!

He knows!

He does not know!

Just hold on!

Of course, he knows!

Look at his f***ing eyes!

I mean, he's probably coming

over here right now!

Sean, hold on! Relax.

Zoom in.

See? He's just staring

at the wall.

Now this guy is fascinating.

Ethan?

Wait, where is he going?

He's going outside.

Check the other cameras!

Okay.

No. No. No.

Well, where is he?

Ethan?

You swear he didn't see us?

Uh, maybe he'll leave.

Okay, take the camera.

No, I'm not gonna take the

camera! We need to hide, man!

Shut up! Just take the camera!

Are you f***ing kidding me?

What? He's not gonna kill two

people on their own door step.

He's not that crazy.

You're sure?

Okay, if this is done,

then it's done.

So we either call the cops...

Or go to the door and see

what he wants.

Either way, if you don't record

this...

I'm gonna come back here

and kill you myself.

Sh*t.

Ethan.

Dude, no!

Ethan!

Ethan?

Ethan!

There you are!

I get one night with you...

And I have to spend it coming

across town hunting you down?

Why didn't you answer

your phone?

You crazy old man.

Oh, that's nice.

Yeah.

Get you in the limo.

F***, I...

Jesus, man.

You have a problem.

It's 10:
00 in the morning.

I... I...

We are 11 days in.

Some definite incidents

to report.

Uh, this is the first time that

Mr. Grainey has not left...

His house at the usual time

in four weeks.

Also, a few slight hiccups

in our disturbances.

The first of which was alerting

the police...

With our electrical

interference.

And the second, and more

interesting being...

What can only be described as a

psychotic, violent assault...

On the old man's own property.

Uh, one thing is for sure, it

doesn't seem that he suspects...

Any human interference, but his

behavior is definitely changing.

As such, the experiment at this

point, can only be described...

As a success.

I just think we should

be careful.

Why don't you tell everybody

why you feel this way?

Why don't you turn

the camera off?

I'm just saying, why do you

want to stop this?
