Blood Child (2017) Movie Script
1
Good throw!
Oh, there you go, woo!
Ah!
You're too fast.
Which way are you gonna go?
Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha!
Here I come!
I got it, you can't get it,
you can't get it!
You can't get it,
okay, okay, okay.
Now I'm gonna get you,
now I'm gonna get you!
Comin' to getcha!
Gotcha, I gotcha!
I gotcha.
I'll always play with you.
Thanks.
Okay, be good for Siti.
I love you.
Uh-uh, Sunday, uh-huh.
Ma'am?
Ma'am?
Ma'am?
Are you okay?
I call sir now!
I'm really sorry.
We did everything we could.
Will she ever be
able to conceive again?
That's unlikely to happen.
I just, I don't understand.
Hey.
Everything's fine.
What happened to the baby?
We'll talk
about that later, okay?
No, Bill please,
don't do this.
We suspect the fetus
had already self-aborted
in the first trimester.
It somehow went undetected.
You're lying.
I don't believe you.
I just want my baby.
Mrs. DiAngelo, I understand
how hard this must be for you.
No.
You don't understand.
Hey, Ash...
You will never understand.
Hey, come on, come on.
It's all right, come
on, it's gonna be okay.
Just get away from me.
Ma'am, I clean for you.
It's okay, Siti.
I got it.
I just must be tired.
Yes, ma'am.
Ma'am?
Good morning, beautiful.
You came to bed late.
I'm running late.
It's gonna be a late night,
so don't wake up, okay?
Love you.
Siti!
Hm?
There's dirt by
the front door again.
Can you make sure
it gets cleaned up?
It's gonna ruin the floors.
Yes, sir.
- Oh-oh-oh...
- Oh!
Sorry, Naomi.
Someone's in a
hurry this morning.
I didn't see you there.
Yeah, obviously not.
Nice tie, matches your eyes.
Uh-huh.
I'm sure my boss
would appreciate me
matching my tie to
my eyes as well.
I'm yankin' your
chain.
Ashley's inside, I'm sure
she'll be glad to see you.
Okay.
Try to
stay outta trouble!
Yeah, why don't
you come back here
and see how much trouble
I can be.
Good morning!
Ash?
Siti?
- Good morning, ma'am.
- Jesus!
You scared the crap outta me.
Sorry, ma'am.
You shouldn't do that.
I don't know what you
people do back home,
but here, it's impolite
to sneak up on people.
Yes, ma'am.
Ma'am, Ashley in the room.
Great.
Good morning, Naomi.
You know Ash, I'm telling you,
there's something not quite
right about that Siti of yours.
Coffee?
Yeah.
I just,
I don't even know why you guys
brought her back with you.
She's fine.
Her English isn't great,
but she's good at her job,
and besides...
Oh god, I know, I know.
She's been with you
and Bill for forever,
and she doesn't have any family,
and her husband passed away,
I know, blah, blah, blah.
I'm just saying
that not everyone
is as understanding as I am,
and they're gonna think
she's a little weird.
Stop already.
Anyways, what are you
doing up so early?
It's not even noon.
Well, I was thinking
that since you've been back
you hardly ever go out.
It's not good for you
to always be cooped
up in this old house.
I have a lot of stuff I
need to get done around here.
I've got more stuff due to
arrive from Singapore next week
that I have to make room for,
and it's not gonna get
put away on its own.
Okay, you're right, but you
have superwoman Siti here, so?
What do you say we have
girls day at the spa
and you just leave the rest of
this for her to take care of?
Come on.
After all, she's
really good at her job.
You're impossible.
I know, and that's why
I'm still your friend.
So let's go, come
on, we're going.
Come on, let's go.
Come on, get your shoes on.
Bye.
- Did you?
- What?
Oh nothing,
I don't know, nevermind.
Come on, coming.
Whoa, you should
really get superwoman
to clean these floors,
they're gonna get ruined.
Yes ma'am.
God, Siti, you're gonna
give me a heart attack.
Sorry, ma'am.
Come on,
before I change my mind.
I'm coming.
PS, why do you have an umbrella,
are you a vampire or something?
I'll be home for dinner.
Not if I can help it.
Get in.
Oh my god.
So, how was
adjusting to buying a house
in suburbia, buddy?
It's good.
Really good.
Well I heard life was
pretty sweet for you guys
in Singapore.
Yeah, it was great.
But you know, I think it as
just time for us to come home.
You're kidding, right?
First of all, you
were paid to be there,
secondly, you were
living in party central,
and the best part is, you
were among smokin' hot women
who would do anything to
get with foreign guys,
and you gave that all up
to come back here because?
You're so full of shit, Tom.
Okay, well, am I right?
Or am I right, hm?
Hey, don't chicks do
anything for foreign guys?
I don't know, man.
Are you trying to tell me
that after spending
five years there,
not one woman threw
themselves at you?
- What?
- Ah, see!
I knew it, huh?
They did, didn't they, huh?
For god's sake, come
on, give this guy a break.
Well shit.
That's it.
We're so done with
this conversation.
So, how is Ash doing, anyway?
She's okay.
You know, she has her good days
and she has her days where she
doesn't wanna get out of bed.
Hey, she's a strong
girl, and she'll get through it.
I know.
And before you know it,
you're gonna hear the sound
of little pit-a-pattering feet
through that house.
Dork.
Yeah, I suppose you're right.
Do you wanna know the
crazy part, though?
Sometimes I think I can
hear those little feet
running through the house now.
Yeah.
I think somebody
needs to get laid.
I think, I think that's it.
- You guys.
- Do you think so?
Looks like there's gonna
be a hell of a storm tonight.
Yes, ma'am.
Put her under the porch
before you go to bed.
Uh, ma'am.
Inchik say no good to move her.
Yeah, well Inchik would
be singing a different tune
if he ever spent the
night in a storm.
We'll put her back
in the morning.
But ma'am.
And can you set this out
only after sir gets home?
Yes ma'am.
And make sure
that there's no more dirt
in the house in the morning.
Yes ma'am.
Good night, Siti.
Good night, ma'am.
Ma'am!
Ma'am.
Ma'am, must eat.
No good eat no food.
You know what it feels like
when your world
suddenly goes dark?
And all your hopes suddenly
taken away from you?
Yes ma'am.
Of course you do.
What on earth does a woman
from some remote
village in Indonesia
know about a world going dark?
You barely understand me
when I ask you to
go boil some water.
Fuck.
My husband die
in accident, ma'am.
He is on motorcycle,
and bus hit him.
I'm so sorry, Siti.
I didn't know.
It's okay, ma'am.
Slowly, you be okay, too.
I don't wanna be okay.
I just want her back.
I've heard stories, you know?
They say she can be kept.
Bad magic, ma'am, no good.
So it's true,
then, it can be done?
I don't know, ma'am.
Then bring me to
someone who does.
God damn thing doing here?
Siti?
Ash?
- Sir.
- Ah!
For god's sake, Siti, you
nearly gave me a heart attack.
Sorry, sir.
What the hell are you
doing up at this hour?
Ma'am asked me wait
for you for dinner.
It's okay, I already ate.
You should get to
bed, it's really late.
What?
Nothing, sir.
Must lock door.
Good night, Siti.
- Naomi.
- Hey.
Oh, uh, you'd think all the
bathrooms in my house would work
considering what I paid for it.
What are you doing
here at this hour?
All the plumbers are over
to fix a water main leak, yay.
Oh, good morning, handsome.
Naomi, wow.
Nice to see you makin'
yourself at home.
Oh well, you
know what they say,
- Uh, shouldn't that be...
- Go.
By the way, you guys,
you should probably get
your downstairs checked.
There's like some funky
smell coming from your den.
Oh well, maybe
it's just your...
Hey, I said go now.
And you, downstairs.
Okay.
We're gonna find out
about this funky smell
you're talking about.
You know what
you need in here?
You need some light, and
you need some fresh air.
I don't notice
any smell in here.
Trust me, there's a smell.
You gotta let that go.
I have.
You can bullshit everyone
else, Ashley DiAngelo,
but you can't bullshit me.
Do you think I have what
it takes to be a good mother?
Think?
Ash, I know.
I know that you'd
be a great mother.
She would've been
six months old today.
Yeah.
Like you really
can't smell that?
Maybe it's just musty in here.
It happens with old houses.
No, it smells
like rotting meat.
Hey, do you have a flashlight?
Uh yeah, I think so.
I'll go take a look.
I'm gonna find you.
Ash, is that you?
Do you have the flashlight?
Ash.
Siti, god!
Sorry ma'am.
Torchlight.
How many times do
I have to tell you?
It's rude to sneak up on people.
Okay, we do not do that here.
We make our presence
known to others.
Do you even understand me?
What happened?
- Are you okay?
- You have to,
you have to tell her to
stop creeping up on people.
I'll take care of this, Siti.
Why don't you go see if
breakfast is ready, okay?
Yes, ma'am.
Sorry ma'am, I
didn't do on purpose.
Are you serious right now?
Hey, we're all okay.
Why don't you go see if
that plumber of yours
knows how to use his snake?
He's gonna need a real
big snake for the job.
Call me when you're up, okay?
Yeah.
And get rid of this
hideous statue!
Are you laughing at me?
Hey, I'm serious.
I can't keep cleaning
up after you every day.
You only at the
candy last night.
You didn't like the meat?
That's the best that I
can do right now, okay?
I need you to work
with me on this.
I know, it's the 14th.
You must promise me to
be good, am I clear?
Are you spying on me?
Uh.
I um, I'm just headed out,
so I thought I'd say goodbye.
I'm gonna be late,
so don't wait up.
Well try not to be too late.
I've got a surprise for you.
A surprise
I like surprises.
Or maybe I could
just call in sick
and you could surprise
me all day long.
Right.
Dream on, pal.
Sir?
Shit, yes?
Headphone, sir?
Fuck Siti, just
leave it there.
Hey hey, calm down.
It's okay.
Thank you, Siti.
What's going on?
You're all jumpy.
The way she does
that all the time.
Does what?
Nevermind.
You're always on
her side anyway.
What's
going on with you?
I gotta go, I'll
see you later.
What is your name?
Actually, actually,
you know what?
Ladies, ladies, ladies.
This is my friend Bill.
- Hey, Bill.
- Hi, Bill.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Now Bill has been
a very bad boy.
Phil has given up the joy
of getting his brains
fucked every night
by smoking hot women for the
wonderful world of monogamy
in suburbia hell.
Aw.
Fuck you.
See but, as his best friend...
Oh really?
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, okay.
As his best friend, I
think it's only right
that I save him from himself
by making sure that his
balls get sucked dry tonight.
So any volunteers?
Bottoms up, pants down.
Cheers.
I think I can volunteer.
- Well there you go.
- Wonderful.
Ooh.
Wait, wait, wait,
I got an idea.
You do?
You're a naughty boy.
I am.
How naughty are you?
Very naughty.
Ah!
- What, are you okay?
- Get away from me.
Are you okay?
Don't touch me!
- What the hell?
- Whoa.
Hey, are you guys okay?
I think your friend here
has a slight case of
a guilty conscience.
Bill?
You feelin' all right?
Guys, I'm sorry, I just.
I think it's just the
drinks getting to my head.
Buddy, I think it's Ash
is getting to your head.
Right.
Why don't I get
you another drink?
No, it's fine.
It's late.
I should be getting home.
I promised Ash I'd
be home early, so...
Why don't I give you a ride?
No, it's okay, I.
Well, you guys stay,
have a good time.
I can give you a
ride, it's just...
No, it's fine.
Honestly, I'm good.
Hey, next round's
on me, everyone.
You asleep?
I'm sorry about this morning.
You've just been a
little on edge lately.
Is everything okay at work?
Mm.
It's just.
You know, um, I believe
you owe me a surprise.
Stop that, it's not
that kind of surprise.
Well I would like it to
be that kind of surprise.
I bet.
It's actually that
kind of surprise
that led to the surprise
I'm about to spring on you.
What are you talking about?
Is this accurate?
Yeah, I tested three
times just to make sure.
Oh my god, baby.
I don't even know what to say.
Hey.
Wait, do you know if
it's a boy or a girl?
Because we're gonna have
to convert one of the rooms
into a nursery.
Or maybe we just
have a nice neutral
Or maybe we could have
the baby in here...
Okay, let's just
slow down a bit.
I only just found out.
I got a doctor's appointment
set for Thursday.
Do you wanna come?
Are you kidding?
I wouldn't miss
it for the world.
What was that?
Eh, it's probably just Siti.
I'll go take a look.
Bill?
I'll be right back.
Ah!
Fuck!
Fuck.
Are you okay?
What happened to your foot?
I stepped on some broken
glass in the kitchen.
Broken glass, how?
I don't know.
Doesn't look too bad,
I'll get some peroxide.
I don't understand
why she would just
leave it lying there.
Who?
Siti.
She probably just
missed a piece, that's all.
I'll talk to her in
the morning, okay?
I'm exhausted, let's go to bed.
Yeah.
Never makes sense.
Broken glass, sounds.
I saw something, Ash.
In the den.
It's probably just Siti.
You're always saying she likes
to pop out of nowhere anyway.
It wasn't Siti.
It was something else.
- Do you think...
- Honey?
You've been out
drinking with the guys
and you've had a long day.
Your eyes and your mind
are probably just playing
tricks on you, that's all.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Remind me to reset the
clocks in the morning.
I think I must've
shorted them out
'cause they've all stopped.
Mom!
Sweetheart.
Mm.
I've missed you.
Me, too.
I don't know why we
don't catch up more often.
I think we saw more of each
other when you lived in Asia.
I know, Mom.
I'm sorry.
You comin' in?
Yeah, just had
to catch my breath.
Well, hello, Siti.
Good afternoon, ma'am.
How are you adjusting
to your new home?
Glad to see you're
as talkative as ever.
Mother, let's
not start, shall we?
You just got here.
This house sure has
personality, doesn't it?
It's called character, Mom.
Mm.
You still haven't gotten
rid of that god-awful thing?
It was a gift, Mom.
A gift that
should've been re-gifted.
Sorry, are you gonna
congratulate me, or what?
Oh, I was getting to that.
Oh.
How are you feeling?
I'm good.
The doctor says that everything's
going along just fine,
and that I don't have
anything to worry about.
What was that?
I'll go take a look.
Stop that.
What is that smell?
It's an old house smell.
I live in an old
house too, dear,
and I certainly don't have
the smell of rotting flesh
in my den.
Yoo-hoo!
I see that mama's here!
- Naomi!
- Hi!
- Hi, honey!
- Oh.
I see you're still looking
as ravishing as always.
Well, thank you, I try.
God, honestly it's
so nice to see you.
I've missed you!
I've missed you, too.
So?
Anything new in your life?
Well, you know what they say.
So many men and thank
god I have so much time.
Come on guys, I think
we need a picture.
Wefie time, come on,
come on, come on.
Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit, sit.
Sit, sit.
Okay, ready?
Smile.
The three musketeers.
Ah, there he is.
The man of the hour.
Uh-oh, what did I do?
With any luck,
what you is gonna make
me a happy grandmother.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait.
What?
Seriously?
Yeah, I just had to make sure.
I can't believe
you didn't tell me!
You weren't the only one.
That's it, I'm
telling everyone, sorry.
Right, well, you
ladies have a good day.
I've got back to
back meetings today,
and the first one starts
in 30 minutes, so.
Okay, bye.
Bye.
Okay, now that he's gone,
I think we should
go baby shopping.
No.
Great idea!
Come on, I know just where
we can go to get started.
Perfect.
Come on, Ash, we'll be
waiting for you in the car.
That's enough.
We're not discussing that now.
When's the baby due?
December sixth.
Winter baby!
- Want wine?
- Oh, it's gonna be so cute.
Why not?
So Renee, how
do you like the house?
Well, I suppose it
has its own charm.
It's a creepy ass
house if you ask me.
Not as creepy as the maid.
I have a toast to make.
I know
that it isn't always easy
being married to me.
You've put up with a lot,
including me dragging you around
all corners of the world
these last few years,
but I just wanna say that
there isn't a day that goes by
that I don't thank God for you.
I must have done something right
to deserve someone as
perfect as you are.
I love you, honey.
You are going to make
an amazing mother.
Hear, hear!
Hear, hear!
I'll toast to that.
Hear, hear!
Cheers.
You two are gonna
be the best parents.
It's like the luckiest
baby, seriously.
Yeah, yeah, but can he
play soccer with the kids?
I don't think so.
That's why I have Siti.
Having a child,
let me tell you what I know.
Are you hoping for a girl?
So you're not gonna find
out till the very end?
Yeah, I mean,
it's gonna be busy.
- It's a lot of work.
- You know?
It's a lot of work, but...
And listen, you're in
it for the long haul now,
I'm telling you now.
Stop, you gotta
stop scaring her.
No, no,
no, just talking.
Has anyone seen Naomi?
She in toilet, ma'am.
We say restroom, Siti.
Be nice, Mother.
I'm only helping Siti
understand the nuances
of our language.
Nothing the matter with
that, is there, Siti?
No, ma'am.
See, no harm done.
I wouldn't worry
about Naomi, Renee.
She can make herself
feel at home, for sure.
Hello!
Help!
Hello, let me out, let me out!
Someone help!
So have
you decided what room
you're gonna turn
into the nursery?
Well, uh, we thought
it would be good
to keep the baby close
for the first bit,
so we're gonna have
the cot set up with us.
No, bad idea.
Yeah, I second that.
Why?
Marriage bed, though.
I hear ya, pal.
Huh!
Babies are sex police.
New baby, your new schedule,
you have leaky and sore nipples,
and your body becomes
a fart factory.
Next thing you know it,
your vagina becomes
a Venus fly trap,
and you are in a dry
spell for 18 years.
18 years, Bill.
Sounds
about right.
- Aw!
- Oh, god.
Naomi?
Oh, let me out!
Ma'am, you okay?
Get away from me!
God, it was you, wasn't it?
I know it was you!
What is going on here?
That fucking bitch
locked me in the bathroom!
No, no ma'am!
Ma'am, Naomi cannot open
door, so I help her open.
Okay, you're a lying
bitch, I know you did it!
Hey!
You know what, it is late,
I think we've all had enough
excitement for one night.
Yeah, we've got an early
start with the kids tomorrow,
so we'll see you later.
Come on, Naomi, I'll
walk you home, all right?
Hey.
Get some rest, okay?
Aw, come here.
Listen, it's been a long day.
Go get some sleep.
Come over for breakfast,
I'll make you some of my
famous berry maple waffles.
- Okay?
- Okay, okay.
Go.
Never a dull
moment around here, huh?
Night, Mom, I'll see
you in the morning.
Night, sweetheart.
Good night, ma'am.
Good night, Siti.
Bill, is that you?
Ash?
You all right?
I'm fine.
I'm just tired.
Okay.
Let's get you to bed.
What the hell is that?
Oh my god.
What is she doing?
You're messing with the
wrong old lady, little girl.
Get out.
What did he say?
Oh, morning, sweetheart.
Morning, Mom.
I see someone's
preparing her specialty.
They're just waffles.
They're only the best
waffles in the world.
Where's Bill?
Early morning meeting.
I don't even know
what time he left.
That means you slept well.
Not too bad.
What about you?
Like a baby.
You're really going to have
to take care of yourself
this time.
I know, Mom.
Well at least you're home now,
and not in some
third world country.
It was Singapore, it's
hardly a third world country.
As a matter of fact,
CNN says it's one of the
world's greatest cities.
Well, I don't
care what CNN has to say,
any country that touts itself
as an English-speaking country
and can't even string a
proper sentence together
can hardly call
itself developed.
Mother.
You're gonna have
to do something
about that smell in the den.
There's no smell, Mom.
It's just musty.
Honey, I was
with your father for 40 years,
and trust me when I
tell you, I know musty,
and that smell in your
den is nothing near musty.
I wonder where Naomi is.
She's always here,
even before I'm up.
I called her, but
she didn't answer.
Oh!
So, how does it
feel to be pregnant?
Stressed.
Oh, you don't know stress
till the baby arrives.
What do
you know about that?
I think it's his two ex wives
and his four kids talking.
That's the
checkbook talking, eh?
Hey, did you guys
see that weird picture
that Naomi posted last night?
Mm-hm.
Nope.
Oh, you got to see this.
Look at that.
What the hell is that?
I don't know,
maybe some kind of double
exposure or something?
What century
are you living in?
There's no such thing as double
exposures on cell phones.
Okay, well maybe
the maid's hand moved
while she was
taking the picture.
Are there any more of these?
That's the thing, this
is the only one she posted.
Social media queen has hundred
of these by the morning.
She's been oddly quiet today.
Naomi, quiet?
You gotta be kidding me.
We'd sooner have the
world come to an end
before that happened.
Naomi, you in there?
Where the hell is she?
Naomi?
Oh my god.
Naomi?
Naomi?
You up?
Naomi, you up there?
Oh.
Oh.
Oh, sweetheart.
What have you done?
Ash.
Oh sweet
Jesus, Mother.
Didn't anyone ever tell you
not to sneak up on
someone like that?
I think we have to leave.
Naomi is not here.
Well, she was.
We just need to go now.
I need to show you this.
We can talk about that when
we are out of this house.
But...
Ash, now!
Ash!
Ash!
Renee?
Ash!
Bill!
Sir, ma'am.
Dinner is ready.
So.
Did you ladies manage to
stay outta trouble today?
What did you both do?
- Groceries.
- Shopping.
Grocery shopping.
Nice.
You know, I was thinking,
seeing as I'm here,
why don't I start to help out
around the house a little bit,
make myself useful.
Mom, there's really no need.
I know.
But you've had a lot
on your plate lately,
and I just thought
I could help you out
with all those boxes
from Singapore.
Get rid of some
of the old stuff,
like, well,
we could start
with that statue out
in the back yard.
That's a
good idea, actually.
I hate that statue, anyway.
You're gonna be
welcoming a new baby soon.
You have to get rid
of the old energy
before you can welcome
in the new energy.
She's right, you know.
I mean, you have so
much to do around here,
and I've been so busy,
I can't help out.
And Siti certainly has
enough to do around the house
as it is.
Mom?
You all right?
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm fine.
I think it's
time to pack it in.
Got a meeting to
prep for anyway.
Good night, Renee.
Good night.
I'll help Siti with the
dishes, I'll be up in a bit.
Sweetheart...
Mom, please.
We've both been
through a lot today.
Can we just talk about
this some other time?
Well, try not to
stay up too late.
Good night.
Good night.
What did he say?
He say must follow paper.
She's yours forever.
I understand.
Every month, 14th,
must feed blood,
and no matter what,
cannot throw her away.
That's ridiculous, I
would never throw her away.
What did he say?
Uh.
He, he wish you
good luck, ma'am.
Thank you.
Hi, Raphael, it's Renee.
Listen, given that
you're the expert
on Southeast Asian mysticism,
I have a couple of questions
I wanna pass by you.
I've been having visions, a
little girl in a red dress.
But you know, there
are other things,
like noises in the
house, some smells.
Any idea what it could be?
I've gotta go,
I'll call you back.
Hush.
Is everything okay in here?
I was just about to
ask you the same thing.
I just went to get some water,
and I thought I heard
talking in here.
We need to talk.
About what?
There's something
unholy in this house.
It's not happy, and it
wants you to know it.
Don't be ridiculous, Mom.
Listen, honey.
I've seen plenty of
things in my life.
And what you have here is a
very deep, dark evil at work.
What did you do?
If you don't tell me
everything, I can't help you.
I don't need your help.
If you wanna keep
this baby, you do.
You need to tell me
everything, everything.
I'll take care of it.
Ash.
Here.
Looks like you could use that.
Thanks.
What?
Nothing.
By the way, have you
heard from Naomi?
No.
You came to bed late last night.
Yeah.
Just tryin' to catch
up on some work.
I have this new account,
and we're shorthanded, so.
It's gonna be another late
one for me at the office, so.
Don't wait up.
I'll leave your
dinner in the microwave.
I love you.
Siti!
Yes, sir.
What the hell is
that thing doing here?
Uh.
Uh.
Why is there all
this dirt on the floor?
Sorry, sir.
I've told you a million times
that the dirt ruins the floors.
What the hell is wrong with you?
Sorry, sir.
I clean now.
Yeah.
I want that damn thing
out of here today!
Ashley?
- No, Mom!
- Oh!
- No, Mom, no, no.
- It's okay.
Siti!
Yes, ma'am.
Siti, call the doctor now!
Yes ma'am.
It's okay.
It's okay.
Oh, it's gonna be okay.
Everything's fine, there's
nothing to worry about.
Make sure she gets plenty
of rest, lots of fluids.
Try not to do any heavy lifting
over the next few months
and keep your stress
level to a minimum, okay?
Thank you, doctor.
Thanks so
much for coming.
Call me
if anything changes.
Thank you, doctor.
Siti, can you show the
doctor out, please?
Yes, ma'am.
Looks like we're
adrenaline junkies, huh?
I'm sorry, honey.
It's okay.
I wanted to get out of
the damn meeting anyway.
Why don't you get some rest.
So.
How are things going for you?
Pretty good.
I haven't been
sleeping very well.
Then there's the pregnancy.
I need to talk
to you about that.
- Look, Renee...
- Sir, ma'am.
Look, Renee, I promise
I'll take good care of her.
That's not what I mean.
She's just been through
a lot this last year.
And I know she's worried
she's going to lose the baby
a second time.
Haven't you noticed
any strange things
going on in this house
since the pregnancy?
The only thing strange
in this place is Siti.
I'm not talking about Siti.
The smell in the den,
the sounds in this house.
The visions.
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Look, Bill, we can't
play around with his.
We've got to do
something and fast.
Siti.
The only thing we need to do
is to make sure that Ash
gets through this pregnancy.
If we don't do anything
about what's happening here,
the pregnancy is going to be
the least of your worries.
Yes, sir.
Can you check on Ash?
See if she wants
anything to eat.
Okay, sir.
Look, there's
nothing going on here.
It's just an old house.
It's doing what
all old houses do.
Oh, Bill.
Are you really that stupid
or are you just playing dumb?
You brought back something
with you from Asia
that you should never have.
Renee, I know you blame me
for what happened in Singapore.
I'm not talking about that.
Bill?
Siti?
(Ashley breathes heavily.
Oh, no!
No, no, no!
Ah, no!
Ma'am, ma'am!
Ma'am!
What do want, Siti?
Sir ask if you want
to eat something.
I'm not hungry.
Okay, ma'am.
It's the 14th tonight.
I didn't forget, ma'am.
Look, we haven't
got much time.
It's getting
stronger by the day,
and at some point, Ash
is going to lose control.
And trust me when I tell you,
it's not going to go
down without a fight.
What the hell are
you talking about?
Sir, ma'am say
she's not hungry.
All right, thanks.
Whatever you brought back,
it wants Ashley all to itself.
It sees this new
baby as a threat,
and it will stop at
nothing to destroy it.
And that means
everyone and anything
that gets in its way.
The body of Twin Cities
resident Naomi Richardson
was just discovered
by local authorities.
Ms. Richardson was found
dead by the city police.
According to a spokesperson,
Ms. Richardson was found
dead in the water tower,
security have said
they first believed it.
Authorities are perplexed
as to how she managed to get
into the secured facility
where it is believed
that she drowned.
According to a
police spokesperson,
her death is currently
being ruled as suicide.
This is such a sad story,
and our hearts go out to
Ms. Richardson's family.
No.
Now, at the top of the
weather, spring hasn't sprung.
Oh my god.
No, no!
Ma'am, ma'am, ma'am.
I have problem, ma'am.
This can't be happening.
We've gotta do something.
I cannot, ma'am.
Too late.
Contract broken.
What are you talking
about, what contract?
What the fuck is going on?
Oh my god.
He told you something else
that night, didn't he?
Warning, ma'am.
You sad over baby, I
did not tell you, ma'am.
What did he say?
He say, hey say, cannot
get pregnant, ma'am.
Give that to me.
What do you do, ma'am?
Undo a mistake.
Ma'am, no ma'am!
Ma'am!
No ma'am!
Ma'am!
Ma'am.
Ash!
Ah!
Hey Bill, it's me,
um, just call us back.
We heard about Naomi.
Why would Naomi kill herself?
She wouldn't.
What the fuck?
Bill.
We need to get out of here.
We need to get out of here fast.
What do you want?
Mommy!
She's not your mommy!
Yes, she is!
What the hell was that?
Help me, Daddy!
Don't listen to it.
It's trying to trick you.
What?
Ashley has been
raising a ghost child.
That amulet she wears
around her neck,
it holds the oil from
the corpse of a fetus.
The statue in the backyard
is where it lives and feeds
and Siti has been helping
to take care of it.
You've got to destroy
both of these things
by midnight tonight.
Mommy?
Mommy?
I love you.
You're wrong.
Ash would never do
something like this.
It gets stronger on
the 14th of every month.
And it's the 14th
tonight at midnight.
Hurry.
Time's running out!
I'm not your mommy.
I'm so sorry.
Please don't leave me, Mommy.
I promise I'll be good.
No, you are not my child.
You never were.
Anna DiAngelo,
come stay with me.
Anna Di Angelo,
come stay with me.
Anna DiAngleo,
come stay with me.
Mommy.
Mommy.
She exhibits
signs of paranoia,
combined with bouts
of severe depression
that can last for several weeks.
She has moments of
psychotic manifestations
which include hearing
voices, delusions,
hallucinations.
Something terrible
must've happened to her.
Her entire family
perished in a house fire.
She's been here ever since.
And the doll?
She believes that's her child.
She suffered a miscarriage,
but not in the fire.
We believe that's what
triggered her psychotic break.
Mommy, don't leave me.
Good throw!
Oh, there you go, woo!
Ah!
You're too fast.
Which way are you gonna go?
Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha!
Here I come!
I got it, you can't get it,
you can't get it!
You can't get it,
okay, okay, okay.
Now I'm gonna get you,
now I'm gonna get you!
Comin' to getcha!
Gotcha, I gotcha!
I gotcha.
I'll always play with you.
Thanks.
Okay, be good for Siti.
I love you.
Uh-uh, Sunday, uh-huh.
Ma'am?
Ma'am?
Ma'am?
Are you okay?
I call sir now!
I'm really sorry.
We did everything we could.
Will she ever be
able to conceive again?
That's unlikely to happen.
I just, I don't understand.
Hey.
Everything's fine.
What happened to the baby?
We'll talk
about that later, okay?
No, Bill please,
don't do this.
We suspect the fetus
had already self-aborted
in the first trimester.
It somehow went undetected.
You're lying.
I don't believe you.
I just want my baby.
Mrs. DiAngelo, I understand
how hard this must be for you.
No.
You don't understand.
Hey, Ash...
You will never understand.
Hey, come on, come on.
It's all right, come
on, it's gonna be okay.
Just get away from me.
Ma'am, I clean for you.
It's okay, Siti.
I got it.
I just must be tired.
Yes, ma'am.
Ma'am?
Good morning, beautiful.
You came to bed late.
I'm running late.
It's gonna be a late night,
so don't wake up, okay?
Love you.
Siti!
Hm?
There's dirt by
the front door again.
Can you make sure
it gets cleaned up?
It's gonna ruin the floors.
Yes, sir.
- Oh-oh-oh...
- Oh!
Sorry, Naomi.
Someone's in a
hurry this morning.
I didn't see you there.
Yeah, obviously not.
Nice tie, matches your eyes.
Uh-huh.
I'm sure my boss
would appreciate me
matching my tie to
my eyes as well.
I'm yankin' your
chain.
Ashley's inside, I'm sure
she'll be glad to see you.
Okay.
Try to
stay outta trouble!
Yeah, why don't
you come back here
and see how much trouble
I can be.
Good morning!
Ash?
Siti?
- Good morning, ma'am.
- Jesus!
You scared the crap outta me.
Sorry, ma'am.
You shouldn't do that.
I don't know what you
people do back home,
but here, it's impolite
to sneak up on people.
Yes, ma'am.
Ma'am, Ashley in the room.
Great.
Good morning, Naomi.
You know Ash, I'm telling you,
there's something not quite
right about that Siti of yours.
Coffee?
Yeah.
I just,
I don't even know why you guys
brought her back with you.
She's fine.
Her English isn't great,
but she's good at her job,
and besides...
Oh god, I know, I know.
She's been with you
and Bill for forever,
and she doesn't have any family,
and her husband passed away,
I know, blah, blah, blah.
I'm just saying
that not everyone
is as understanding as I am,
and they're gonna think
she's a little weird.
Stop already.
Anyways, what are you
doing up so early?
It's not even noon.
Well, I was thinking
that since you've been back
you hardly ever go out.
It's not good for you
to always be cooped
up in this old house.
I have a lot of stuff I
need to get done around here.
I've got more stuff due to
arrive from Singapore next week
that I have to make room for,
and it's not gonna get
put away on its own.
Okay, you're right, but you
have superwoman Siti here, so?
What do you say we have
girls day at the spa
and you just leave the rest of
this for her to take care of?
Come on.
After all, she's
really good at her job.
You're impossible.
I know, and that's why
I'm still your friend.
So let's go, come
on, we're going.
Come on, let's go.
Come on, get your shoes on.
Bye.
- Did you?
- What?
Oh nothing,
I don't know, nevermind.
Come on, coming.
Whoa, you should
really get superwoman
to clean these floors,
they're gonna get ruined.
Yes ma'am.
God, Siti, you're gonna
give me a heart attack.
Sorry, ma'am.
Come on,
before I change my mind.
I'm coming.
PS, why do you have an umbrella,
are you a vampire or something?
I'll be home for dinner.
Not if I can help it.
Get in.
Oh my god.
So, how was
adjusting to buying a house
in suburbia, buddy?
It's good.
Really good.
Well I heard life was
pretty sweet for you guys
in Singapore.
Yeah, it was great.
But you know, I think it as
just time for us to come home.
You're kidding, right?
First of all, you
were paid to be there,
secondly, you were
living in party central,
and the best part is, you
were among smokin' hot women
who would do anything to
get with foreign guys,
and you gave that all up
to come back here because?
You're so full of shit, Tom.
Okay, well, am I right?
Or am I right, hm?
Hey, don't chicks do
anything for foreign guys?
I don't know, man.
Are you trying to tell me
that after spending
five years there,
not one woman threw
themselves at you?
- What?
- Ah, see!
I knew it, huh?
They did, didn't they, huh?
For god's sake, come
on, give this guy a break.
Well shit.
That's it.
We're so done with
this conversation.
So, how is Ash doing, anyway?
She's okay.
You know, she has her good days
and she has her days where she
doesn't wanna get out of bed.
Hey, she's a strong
girl, and she'll get through it.
I know.
And before you know it,
you're gonna hear the sound
of little pit-a-pattering feet
through that house.
Dork.
Yeah, I suppose you're right.
Do you wanna know the
crazy part, though?
Sometimes I think I can
hear those little feet
running through the house now.
Yeah.
I think somebody
needs to get laid.
I think, I think that's it.
- You guys.
- Do you think so?
Looks like there's gonna
be a hell of a storm tonight.
Yes, ma'am.
Put her under the porch
before you go to bed.
Uh, ma'am.
Inchik say no good to move her.
Yeah, well Inchik would
be singing a different tune
if he ever spent the
night in a storm.
We'll put her back
in the morning.
But ma'am.
And can you set this out
only after sir gets home?
Yes ma'am.
And make sure
that there's no more dirt
in the house in the morning.
Yes ma'am.
Good night, Siti.
Good night, ma'am.
Ma'am!
Ma'am.
Ma'am, must eat.
No good eat no food.
You know what it feels like
when your world
suddenly goes dark?
And all your hopes suddenly
taken away from you?
Yes ma'am.
Of course you do.
What on earth does a woman
from some remote
village in Indonesia
know about a world going dark?
You barely understand me
when I ask you to
go boil some water.
Fuck.
My husband die
in accident, ma'am.
He is on motorcycle,
and bus hit him.
I'm so sorry, Siti.
I didn't know.
It's okay, ma'am.
Slowly, you be okay, too.
I don't wanna be okay.
I just want her back.
I've heard stories, you know?
They say she can be kept.
Bad magic, ma'am, no good.
So it's true,
then, it can be done?
I don't know, ma'am.
Then bring me to
someone who does.
God damn thing doing here?
Siti?
Ash?
- Sir.
- Ah!
For god's sake, Siti, you
nearly gave me a heart attack.
Sorry, sir.
What the hell are you
doing up at this hour?
Ma'am asked me wait
for you for dinner.
It's okay, I already ate.
You should get to
bed, it's really late.
What?
Nothing, sir.
Must lock door.
Good night, Siti.
- Naomi.
- Hey.
Oh, uh, you'd think all the
bathrooms in my house would work
considering what I paid for it.
What are you doing
here at this hour?
All the plumbers are over
to fix a water main leak, yay.
Oh, good morning, handsome.
Naomi, wow.
Nice to see you makin'
yourself at home.
Oh well, you
know what they say,
- Uh, shouldn't that be...
- Go.
By the way, you guys,
you should probably get
your downstairs checked.
There's like some funky
smell coming from your den.
Oh well, maybe
it's just your...
Hey, I said go now.
And you, downstairs.
Okay.
We're gonna find out
about this funky smell
you're talking about.
You know what
you need in here?
You need some light, and
you need some fresh air.
I don't notice
any smell in here.
Trust me, there's a smell.
You gotta let that go.
I have.
You can bullshit everyone
else, Ashley DiAngelo,
but you can't bullshit me.
Do you think I have what
it takes to be a good mother?
Think?
Ash, I know.
I know that you'd
be a great mother.
She would've been
six months old today.
Yeah.
Like you really
can't smell that?
Maybe it's just musty in here.
It happens with old houses.
No, it smells
like rotting meat.
Hey, do you have a flashlight?
Uh yeah, I think so.
I'll go take a look.
I'm gonna find you.
Ash, is that you?
Do you have the flashlight?
Ash.
Siti, god!
Sorry ma'am.
Torchlight.
How many times do
I have to tell you?
It's rude to sneak up on people.
Okay, we do not do that here.
We make our presence
known to others.
Do you even understand me?
What happened?
- Are you okay?
- You have to,
you have to tell her to
stop creeping up on people.
I'll take care of this, Siti.
Why don't you go see if
breakfast is ready, okay?
Yes, ma'am.
Sorry ma'am, I
didn't do on purpose.
Are you serious right now?
Hey, we're all okay.
Why don't you go see if
that plumber of yours
knows how to use his snake?
He's gonna need a real
big snake for the job.
Call me when you're up, okay?
Yeah.
And get rid of this
hideous statue!
Are you laughing at me?
Hey, I'm serious.
I can't keep cleaning
up after you every day.
You only at the
candy last night.
You didn't like the meat?
That's the best that I
can do right now, okay?
I need you to work
with me on this.
I know, it's the 14th.
You must promise me to
be good, am I clear?
Are you spying on me?
Uh.
I um, I'm just headed out,
so I thought I'd say goodbye.
I'm gonna be late,
so don't wait up.
Well try not to be too late.
I've got a surprise for you.
A surprise
I like surprises.
Or maybe I could
just call in sick
and you could surprise
me all day long.
Right.
Dream on, pal.
Sir?
Shit, yes?
Headphone, sir?
Fuck Siti, just
leave it there.
Hey hey, calm down.
It's okay.
Thank you, Siti.
What's going on?
You're all jumpy.
The way she does
that all the time.
Does what?
Nevermind.
You're always on
her side anyway.
What's
going on with you?
I gotta go, I'll
see you later.
What is your name?
Actually, actually,
you know what?
Ladies, ladies, ladies.
This is my friend Bill.
- Hey, Bill.
- Hi, Bill.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Now Bill has been
a very bad boy.
Phil has given up the joy
of getting his brains
fucked every night
by smoking hot women for the
wonderful world of monogamy
in suburbia hell.
Aw.
Fuck you.
See but, as his best friend...
Oh really?
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, okay.
As his best friend, I
think it's only right
that I save him from himself
by making sure that his
balls get sucked dry tonight.
So any volunteers?
Bottoms up, pants down.
Cheers.
I think I can volunteer.
- Well there you go.
- Wonderful.
Ooh.
Wait, wait, wait,
I got an idea.
You do?
You're a naughty boy.
I am.
How naughty are you?
Very naughty.
Ah!
- What, are you okay?
- Get away from me.
Are you okay?
Don't touch me!
- What the hell?
- Whoa.
Hey, are you guys okay?
I think your friend here
has a slight case of
a guilty conscience.
Bill?
You feelin' all right?
Guys, I'm sorry, I just.
I think it's just the
drinks getting to my head.
Buddy, I think it's Ash
is getting to your head.
Right.
Why don't I get
you another drink?
No, it's fine.
It's late.
I should be getting home.
I promised Ash I'd
be home early, so...
Why don't I give you a ride?
No, it's okay, I.
Well, you guys stay,
have a good time.
I can give you a
ride, it's just...
No, it's fine.
Honestly, I'm good.
Hey, next round's
on me, everyone.
You asleep?
I'm sorry about this morning.
You've just been a
little on edge lately.
Is everything okay at work?
Mm.
It's just.
You know, um, I believe
you owe me a surprise.
Stop that, it's not
that kind of surprise.
Well I would like it to
be that kind of surprise.
I bet.
It's actually that
kind of surprise
that led to the surprise
I'm about to spring on you.
What are you talking about?
Is this accurate?
Yeah, I tested three
times just to make sure.
Oh my god, baby.
I don't even know what to say.
Hey.
Wait, do you know if
it's a boy or a girl?
Because we're gonna have
to convert one of the rooms
into a nursery.
Or maybe we just
have a nice neutral
Or maybe we could have
the baby in here...
Okay, let's just
slow down a bit.
I only just found out.
I got a doctor's appointment
set for Thursday.
Do you wanna come?
Are you kidding?
I wouldn't miss
it for the world.
What was that?
Eh, it's probably just Siti.
I'll go take a look.
Bill?
I'll be right back.
Ah!
Fuck!
Fuck.
Are you okay?
What happened to your foot?
I stepped on some broken
glass in the kitchen.
Broken glass, how?
I don't know.
Doesn't look too bad,
I'll get some peroxide.
I don't understand
why she would just
leave it lying there.
Who?
Siti.
She probably just
missed a piece, that's all.
I'll talk to her in
the morning, okay?
I'm exhausted, let's go to bed.
Yeah.
Never makes sense.
Broken glass, sounds.
I saw something, Ash.
In the den.
It's probably just Siti.
You're always saying she likes
to pop out of nowhere anyway.
It wasn't Siti.
It was something else.
- Do you think...
- Honey?
You've been out
drinking with the guys
and you've had a long day.
Your eyes and your mind
are probably just playing
tricks on you, that's all.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Remind me to reset the
clocks in the morning.
I think I must've
shorted them out
'cause they've all stopped.
Mom!
Sweetheart.
Mm.
I've missed you.
Me, too.
I don't know why we
don't catch up more often.
I think we saw more of each
other when you lived in Asia.
I know, Mom.
I'm sorry.
You comin' in?
Yeah, just had
to catch my breath.
Well, hello, Siti.
Good afternoon, ma'am.
How are you adjusting
to your new home?
Glad to see you're
as talkative as ever.
Mother, let's
not start, shall we?
You just got here.
This house sure has
personality, doesn't it?
It's called character, Mom.
Mm.
You still haven't gotten
rid of that god-awful thing?
It was a gift, Mom.
A gift that
should've been re-gifted.
Sorry, are you gonna
congratulate me, or what?
Oh, I was getting to that.
Oh.
How are you feeling?
I'm good.
The doctor says that everything's
going along just fine,
and that I don't have
anything to worry about.
What was that?
I'll go take a look.
Stop that.
What is that smell?
It's an old house smell.
I live in an old
house too, dear,
and I certainly don't have
the smell of rotting flesh
in my den.
Yoo-hoo!
I see that mama's here!
- Naomi!
- Hi!
- Hi, honey!
- Oh.
I see you're still looking
as ravishing as always.
Well, thank you, I try.
God, honestly it's
so nice to see you.
I've missed you!
I've missed you, too.
So?
Anything new in your life?
Well, you know what they say.
So many men and thank
god I have so much time.
Come on guys, I think
we need a picture.
Wefie time, come on,
come on, come on.
Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit, sit.
Sit, sit.
Okay, ready?
Smile.
The three musketeers.
Ah, there he is.
The man of the hour.
Uh-oh, what did I do?
With any luck,
what you is gonna make
me a happy grandmother.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait.
What?
Seriously?
Yeah, I just had to make sure.
I can't believe
you didn't tell me!
You weren't the only one.
That's it, I'm
telling everyone, sorry.
Right, well, you
ladies have a good day.
I've got back to
back meetings today,
and the first one starts
in 30 minutes, so.
Okay, bye.
Bye.
Okay, now that he's gone,
I think we should
go baby shopping.
No.
Great idea!
Come on, I know just where
we can go to get started.
Perfect.
Come on, Ash, we'll be
waiting for you in the car.
That's enough.
We're not discussing that now.
When's the baby due?
December sixth.
Winter baby!
- Want wine?
- Oh, it's gonna be so cute.
Why not?
So Renee, how
do you like the house?
Well, I suppose it
has its own charm.
It's a creepy ass
house if you ask me.
Not as creepy as the maid.
I have a toast to make.
I know
that it isn't always easy
being married to me.
You've put up with a lot,
including me dragging you around
all corners of the world
these last few years,
but I just wanna say that
there isn't a day that goes by
that I don't thank God for you.
I must have done something right
to deserve someone as
perfect as you are.
I love you, honey.
You are going to make
an amazing mother.
Hear, hear!
Hear, hear!
I'll toast to that.
Hear, hear!
Cheers.
You two are gonna
be the best parents.
It's like the luckiest
baby, seriously.
Yeah, yeah, but can he
play soccer with the kids?
I don't think so.
That's why I have Siti.
Having a child,
let me tell you what I know.
Are you hoping for a girl?
So you're not gonna find
out till the very end?
Yeah, I mean,
it's gonna be busy.
- It's a lot of work.
- You know?
It's a lot of work, but...
And listen, you're in
it for the long haul now,
I'm telling you now.
Stop, you gotta
stop scaring her.
No, no,
no, just talking.
Has anyone seen Naomi?
She in toilet, ma'am.
We say restroom, Siti.
Be nice, Mother.
I'm only helping Siti
understand the nuances
of our language.
Nothing the matter with
that, is there, Siti?
No, ma'am.
See, no harm done.
I wouldn't worry
about Naomi, Renee.
She can make herself
feel at home, for sure.
Hello!
Help!
Hello, let me out, let me out!
Someone help!
So have
you decided what room
you're gonna turn
into the nursery?
Well, uh, we thought
it would be good
to keep the baby close
for the first bit,
so we're gonna have
the cot set up with us.
No, bad idea.
Yeah, I second that.
Why?
Marriage bed, though.
I hear ya, pal.
Huh!
Babies are sex police.
New baby, your new schedule,
you have leaky and sore nipples,
and your body becomes
a fart factory.
Next thing you know it,
your vagina becomes
a Venus fly trap,
and you are in a dry
spell for 18 years.
18 years, Bill.
Sounds
about right.
- Aw!
- Oh, god.
Naomi?
Oh, let me out!
Ma'am, you okay?
Get away from me!
God, it was you, wasn't it?
I know it was you!
What is going on here?
That fucking bitch
locked me in the bathroom!
No, no ma'am!
Ma'am, Naomi cannot open
door, so I help her open.
Okay, you're a lying
bitch, I know you did it!
Hey!
You know what, it is late,
I think we've all had enough
excitement for one night.
Yeah, we've got an early
start with the kids tomorrow,
so we'll see you later.
Come on, Naomi, I'll
walk you home, all right?
Hey.
Get some rest, okay?
Aw, come here.
Listen, it's been a long day.
Go get some sleep.
Come over for breakfast,
I'll make you some of my
famous berry maple waffles.
- Okay?
- Okay, okay.
Go.
Never a dull
moment around here, huh?
Night, Mom, I'll see
you in the morning.
Night, sweetheart.
Good night, ma'am.
Good night, Siti.
Bill, is that you?
Ash?
You all right?
I'm fine.
I'm just tired.
Okay.
Let's get you to bed.
What the hell is that?
Oh my god.
What is she doing?
You're messing with the
wrong old lady, little girl.
Get out.
What did he say?
Oh, morning, sweetheart.
Morning, Mom.
I see someone's
preparing her specialty.
They're just waffles.
They're only the best
waffles in the world.
Where's Bill?
Early morning meeting.
I don't even know
what time he left.
That means you slept well.
Not too bad.
What about you?
Like a baby.
You're really going to have
to take care of yourself
this time.
I know, Mom.
Well at least you're home now,
and not in some
third world country.
It was Singapore, it's
hardly a third world country.
As a matter of fact,
CNN says it's one of the
world's greatest cities.
Well, I don't
care what CNN has to say,
any country that touts itself
as an English-speaking country
and can't even string a
proper sentence together
can hardly call
itself developed.
Mother.
You're gonna have
to do something
about that smell in the den.
There's no smell, Mom.
It's just musty.
Honey, I was
with your father for 40 years,
and trust me when I
tell you, I know musty,
and that smell in your
den is nothing near musty.
I wonder where Naomi is.
She's always here,
even before I'm up.
I called her, but
she didn't answer.
Oh!
So, how does it
feel to be pregnant?
Stressed.
Oh, you don't know stress
till the baby arrives.
What do
you know about that?
I think it's his two ex wives
and his four kids talking.
That's the
checkbook talking, eh?
Hey, did you guys
see that weird picture
that Naomi posted last night?
Mm-hm.
Nope.
Oh, you got to see this.
Look at that.
What the hell is that?
I don't know,
maybe some kind of double
exposure or something?
What century
are you living in?
There's no such thing as double
exposures on cell phones.
Okay, well maybe
the maid's hand moved
while she was
taking the picture.
Are there any more of these?
That's the thing, this
is the only one she posted.
Social media queen has hundred
of these by the morning.
She's been oddly quiet today.
Naomi, quiet?
You gotta be kidding me.
We'd sooner have the
world come to an end
before that happened.
Naomi, you in there?
Where the hell is she?
Naomi?
Oh my god.
Naomi?
Naomi?
You up?
Naomi, you up there?
Oh.
Oh.
Oh, sweetheart.
What have you done?
Ash.
Oh sweet
Jesus, Mother.
Didn't anyone ever tell you
not to sneak up on
someone like that?
I think we have to leave.
Naomi is not here.
Well, she was.
We just need to go now.
I need to show you this.
We can talk about that when
we are out of this house.
But...
Ash, now!
Ash!
Ash!
Renee?
Ash!
Bill!
Sir, ma'am.
Dinner is ready.
So.
Did you ladies manage to
stay outta trouble today?
What did you both do?
- Groceries.
- Shopping.
Grocery shopping.
Nice.
You know, I was thinking,
seeing as I'm here,
why don't I start to help out
around the house a little bit,
make myself useful.
Mom, there's really no need.
I know.
But you've had a lot
on your plate lately,
and I just thought
I could help you out
with all those boxes
from Singapore.
Get rid of some
of the old stuff,
like, well,
we could start
with that statue out
in the back yard.
That's a
good idea, actually.
I hate that statue, anyway.
You're gonna be
welcoming a new baby soon.
You have to get rid
of the old energy
before you can welcome
in the new energy.
She's right, you know.
I mean, you have so
much to do around here,
and I've been so busy,
I can't help out.
And Siti certainly has
enough to do around the house
as it is.
Mom?
You all right?
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm fine.
I think it's
time to pack it in.
Got a meeting to
prep for anyway.
Good night, Renee.
Good night.
I'll help Siti with the
dishes, I'll be up in a bit.
Sweetheart...
Mom, please.
We've both been
through a lot today.
Can we just talk about
this some other time?
Well, try not to
stay up too late.
Good night.
Good night.
What did he say?
He say must follow paper.
She's yours forever.
I understand.
Every month, 14th,
must feed blood,
and no matter what,
cannot throw her away.
That's ridiculous, I
would never throw her away.
What did he say?
Uh.
He, he wish you
good luck, ma'am.
Thank you.
Hi, Raphael, it's Renee.
Listen, given that
you're the expert
on Southeast Asian mysticism,
I have a couple of questions
I wanna pass by you.
I've been having visions, a
little girl in a red dress.
But you know, there
are other things,
like noises in the
house, some smells.
Any idea what it could be?
I've gotta go,
I'll call you back.
Hush.
Is everything okay in here?
I was just about to
ask you the same thing.
I just went to get some water,
and I thought I heard
talking in here.
We need to talk.
About what?
There's something
unholy in this house.
It's not happy, and it
wants you to know it.
Don't be ridiculous, Mom.
Listen, honey.
I've seen plenty of
things in my life.
And what you have here is a
very deep, dark evil at work.
What did you do?
If you don't tell me
everything, I can't help you.
I don't need your help.
If you wanna keep
this baby, you do.
You need to tell me
everything, everything.
I'll take care of it.
Ash.
Here.
Looks like you could use that.
Thanks.
What?
Nothing.
By the way, have you
heard from Naomi?
No.
You came to bed late last night.
Yeah.
Just tryin' to catch
up on some work.
I have this new account,
and we're shorthanded, so.
It's gonna be another late
one for me at the office, so.
Don't wait up.
I'll leave your
dinner in the microwave.
I love you.
Siti!
Yes, sir.
What the hell is
that thing doing here?
Uh.
Uh.
Why is there all
this dirt on the floor?
Sorry, sir.
I've told you a million times
that the dirt ruins the floors.
What the hell is wrong with you?
Sorry, sir.
I clean now.
Yeah.
I want that damn thing
out of here today!
Ashley?
- No, Mom!
- Oh!
- No, Mom, no, no.
- It's okay.
Siti!
Yes, ma'am.
Siti, call the doctor now!
Yes ma'am.
It's okay.
It's okay.
Oh, it's gonna be okay.
Everything's fine, there's
nothing to worry about.
Make sure she gets plenty
of rest, lots of fluids.
Try not to do any heavy lifting
over the next few months
and keep your stress
level to a minimum, okay?
Thank you, doctor.
Thanks so
much for coming.
Call me
if anything changes.
Thank you, doctor.
Siti, can you show the
doctor out, please?
Yes, ma'am.
Looks like we're
adrenaline junkies, huh?
I'm sorry, honey.
It's okay.
I wanted to get out of
the damn meeting anyway.
Why don't you get some rest.
So.
How are things going for you?
Pretty good.
I haven't been
sleeping very well.
Then there's the pregnancy.
I need to talk
to you about that.
- Look, Renee...
- Sir, ma'am.
Look, Renee, I promise
I'll take good care of her.
That's not what I mean.
She's just been through
a lot this last year.
And I know she's worried
she's going to lose the baby
a second time.
Haven't you noticed
any strange things
going on in this house
since the pregnancy?
The only thing strange
in this place is Siti.
I'm not talking about Siti.
The smell in the den,
the sounds in this house.
The visions.
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Look, Bill, we can't
play around with his.
We've got to do
something and fast.
Siti.
The only thing we need to do
is to make sure that Ash
gets through this pregnancy.
If we don't do anything
about what's happening here,
the pregnancy is going to be
the least of your worries.
Yes, sir.
Can you check on Ash?
See if she wants
anything to eat.
Okay, sir.
Look, there's
nothing going on here.
It's just an old house.
It's doing what
all old houses do.
Oh, Bill.
Are you really that stupid
or are you just playing dumb?
You brought back something
with you from Asia
that you should never have.
Renee, I know you blame me
for what happened in Singapore.
I'm not talking about that.
Bill?
Siti?
(Ashley breathes heavily.
Oh, no!
No, no, no!
Ah, no!
Ma'am, ma'am!
Ma'am!
What do want, Siti?
Sir ask if you want
to eat something.
I'm not hungry.
Okay, ma'am.
It's the 14th tonight.
I didn't forget, ma'am.
Look, we haven't
got much time.
It's getting
stronger by the day,
and at some point, Ash
is going to lose control.
And trust me when I tell you,
it's not going to go
down without a fight.
What the hell are
you talking about?
Sir, ma'am say
she's not hungry.
All right, thanks.
Whatever you brought back,
it wants Ashley all to itself.
It sees this new
baby as a threat,
and it will stop at
nothing to destroy it.
And that means
everyone and anything
that gets in its way.
The body of Twin Cities
resident Naomi Richardson
was just discovered
by local authorities.
Ms. Richardson was found
dead by the city police.
According to a spokesperson,
Ms. Richardson was found
dead in the water tower,
security have said
they first believed it.
Authorities are perplexed
as to how she managed to get
into the secured facility
where it is believed
that she drowned.
According to a
police spokesperson,
her death is currently
being ruled as suicide.
This is such a sad story,
and our hearts go out to
Ms. Richardson's family.
No.
Now, at the top of the
weather, spring hasn't sprung.
Oh my god.
No, no!
Ma'am, ma'am, ma'am.
I have problem, ma'am.
This can't be happening.
We've gotta do something.
I cannot, ma'am.
Too late.
Contract broken.
What are you talking
about, what contract?
What the fuck is going on?
Oh my god.
He told you something else
that night, didn't he?
Warning, ma'am.
You sad over baby, I
did not tell you, ma'am.
What did he say?
He say, hey say, cannot
get pregnant, ma'am.
Give that to me.
What do you do, ma'am?
Undo a mistake.
Ma'am, no ma'am!
Ma'am!
No ma'am!
Ma'am!
Ma'am.
Ash!
Ah!
Hey Bill, it's me,
um, just call us back.
We heard about Naomi.
Why would Naomi kill herself?
She wouldn't.
What the fuck?
Bill.
We need to get out of here.
We need to get out of here fast.
What do you want?
Mommy!
She's not your mommy!
Yes, she is!
What the hell was that?
Help me, Daddy!
Don't listen to it.
It's trying to trick you.
What?
Ashley has been
raising a ghost child.
That amulet she wears
around her neck,
it holds the oil from
the corpse of a fetus.
The statue in the backyard
is where it lives and feeds
and Siti has been helping
to take care of it.
You've got to destroy
both of these things
by midnight tonight.
Mommy?
Mommy?
I love you.
You're wrong.
Ash would never do
something like this.
It gets stronger on
the 14th of every month.
And it's the 14th
tonight at midnight.
Hurry.
Time's running out!
I'm not your mommy.
I'm so sorry.
Please don't leave me, Mommy.
I promise I'll be good.
No, you are not my child.
You never were.
Anna DiAngelo,
come stay with me.
Anna Di Angelo,
come stay with me.
Anna DiAngleo,
come stay with me.
Mommy.
Mommy.
She exhibits
signs of paranoia,
combined with bouts
of severe depression
that can last for several weeks.
She has moments of
psychotic manifestations
which include hearing
voices, delusions,
hallucinations.
Something terrible
must've happened to her.
Her entire family
perished in a house fire.
She's been here ever since.
And the doll?
She believes that's her child.
She suffered a miscarriage,
but not in the fire.
We believe that's what
triggered her psychotic break.
Mommy, don't leave me.
