(FAINT KNOCKING)

(KNOCKING CONTINUES)

(SOFTLY) Honey.

Honey, wake up.

- What is it?

- Wake up.

It sounds like somebody's knocking.

(KNOCKING CONTINUES)

All right. Hit the lights.

(GRUNTING)

(KNOCKING CONTINUES)

What are you doing?

Stay right here, Mary.

- (SIGHS)

- (KNOCKING CONTINUES)

(THUD)

(DOG BARKING)

(SIGHS)

What was it?

It was nothing.

Come on.

Come here.

God.

(RELIEVED SIGH)

- (RELIEVED SIGH)

- (RATTLING)

What is that?

(CLATTERING)

(PANTING)

I'm calling the police.

Hi, I'm at 3301 Cameron Street.

I think somebody is trying

to break into our house.

(DOOR CREAKS SHUT)

Who's down there?

MAN:
Little pig.

MARY:
Oh, God!

(PANTING)

(PANTING)

MAN:
They're in here.

- (THUDDING)

- (GRUNTS)

(DOG BARKING)

John, there's someone out there!

(DOORKNOB RATTLING)

(SIREN WAILING IN DISTANCE)

(CAR DOOR OPENS)

(DOG BARKING)

LAPD! I'm coming in!

(LIGHT SWITCH CLICKING)

(BREATHES SHARPLY)

(BREATHING SHAKILY)

(DOOR CREAKING)

(RATTLING)

- (DOOR CREAKS)

- (GASPS)

- Don't shoot! Don't shoot!

- Don't shoot! Don't shoot!

(PANTING)

POLICE OFFICER:

Detective Clarkin.

The missus says

she got a visual,

...but she's fuzzy on details.

It was dark. She was upstairs

looking down through her window.

Said she was pretty sure she saw a

white female, but couldn't guarantee.

She's still a little shaken,

but, uh,

...maybe when she calms

down a little...

CLARKIN:
Every day

it's something new here.

- At least the weather's nice.

- (CHUCKLES)

- Those the home owners?

- Yeah. Right this way.

(INDISTINC POLICE RADIO CHATTER)

Think of any reason someone

might wanna do this to you?

MARY:
No.

Disgruntled employee,

upset family member, neighbor?

No! No! No one we know

would do something like this.

Of course.

Had to ask.

There's been a rash

of home invasions...

...over the past few weeks,

...so I'm sure this was

in connection with those.

But who would

do something like this?

Runaways, hippies,

radicals, dropouts.

You name it, you got

it all here in California.

Look, I've got a few theories,

...but nothing I can share at the moment.

The good news is, they've all been

relatively minor infractions.

People sneaking in,

moving things around.

MARY:
Excuse me, Officer.

This doesn't seem

to be something minor.

It certainly didn't feel minor.

No. No, I'm sure it didn't.

I admit, this one seems like

they're stepping things up.

Who knows what might have happened

if you didn't call when you did.

I just don't understand.

They're crazy, dear.

Crazy people do crazy things.

(MARIACHI MUSIC PLAYING)

(INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS)

WAITRESS:

Fuller. Party of three.

Hola. This way, please.

(SINGING IN SPANISH)

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

Make a wish.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUDING)

Happy birthday, Abby.

My birthday is in October.

- Ah.

- Oh.

We know.

But aren't birthday parties...

...so much more fun

than going away parties?

What? Not my idea.

- What was your idea?

- WOJCIECH:
I don't know.

Kidnap you. Keep you here

forever and ever.

- How sweet.

- Thanks.

SHARON:

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

One more thing.

What's a birthday party

without presents?

Sharon.

Beautiful.

(CLICKS TONGUE) Aw.

- I took it when we were...

- I know.

It's Zuma.

Our beach.

It's beautiful, Sharon.

We always said it had

a mystical hold over us.

Yeah.

WOJCIECH:
This is actually where we first met.

You remember that?

- Yeah.

- That bonfire party?

That was a good party.

JAY:
Credit where credit's due.

In this case, to me.

I'm gonna miss that beach.

- And we're gonna miss you.

- Yeah.

So, when you get sick of Boston...

...and decide to come back,

...it'll be the first place that we go.

Thank you. I love it.

She's Not There playing

ABIGAIL:

Sharon, who's here now?

(CAR RADIO TURNS OFF)

Thank you.

(GIGGLES)

Thank you.

You promised you weren't

gonna throw a party.

And I kept my promise.

But you know how it is.

People show up

whenever they feel like it.

Well, maybe you should rethink

that policy when the baby arrives.

(SHARON GIGGLES)

RADIO JOCKEY:
That song haunts me.

It just does.

Mmm-mmm-mmm.

Nothing else to say but that.

Sixteen minutes before 11:00.

This is the HJB program,

...where we have

a good time all the time.

We're gonna bop

around all night...

...having fun,

doing things, you know.

Stick around for your favorite

blues and R&B tunes.

72 degrees in Los Angeles

right now, 76 in the Valley.

(CAR RADIO PLAYING FAINTLY)

(CAR RADIO TURNS OFF)

ABIGAIL:
Okay, just tell me

what's going on.

SHARON:
I have no idea

what's going on.

But let's find out.

(SOFTLY) Sharon!

You can't just look in there.

What? Yes.

I'm just investigating.

It's fine.

(TWIG SNAPS)

(ZIPPING PANTS)

- Sorry.

- (BOTH CHUCKLING)

Is William around?

He rents the guest house.

It's just right around there.

Thanks.

You know, you look familiar.

You don't.

You sure we've never

met each other?

If we did, you'd remember.

I can promise you that.

I'll definitely remember

for the next time, then.

You two take care, now.

(GRUNTS)

Needs a few years to mature,

but overall, not bad.

- Oh, my God. You're terrible.

- (GIGGLES)

What's gonna happen

after I'm gone?

Who's gonna keep you

in line then?

Aw. You don't have to go, Abs.

You could stay here.

There's plenty of room.

And then what?

And then...

Ah, who knows?

Isn't that the exciting
