(phone ringing)
Hello?
[Agent] Hi, Suzie.
Can you talk?
Yeah, sure, I'm just on my way home now.
[Agent] How did the book signing go?
Yeah, it was good.
This one guy showed up
with my face embroidered on his T-shirt,
which was kind of flattering, I guess.
[Agent] Did you get my email
with the editor's notes?
Yeah, yeah, I did.
I can get the revisions for
the new draft back by Friday.
[Agent] Perfect.
Listen, the publishers
want to rethink the title.
Really, again?
[Agent] They think it's too ambiguous,
that the modern audience
needs to know exactly
what the story is about
from what it's called,
especially with international readers.
So marketing has come up
with half a dozen suggestions.
Shall I send them over?
(tense music)
Suzie?
Suzie, you still there?
Yeah, yeah, sure, that's fine.
Send them over.
[Agent] Will do.
Speak soon.
Yeah, bye.
(tense music)
(keys jangling)
(tense music)
(elevator doors rattling)
(tense music)
(tense music) (elevator burbling)
(elevator doors rattle)
(tense music)
Thank you.
(shoes thudding)
(tense music)
(keys jangling)
(door thuds)
(tense music)
(Suzie sighs)
(water splashing)
(water splashes)
(wind blows)
(tense music)
(water splashing) (Suzie groaning)
(tense music)
(birds chirping)
(Luke roars)
Nothing?
(Luke tuts)
(Tamesha humming)
Okay.
(Tamesha humming)
Did you feed Bruno?
Yes.
(dog tag jingles away)
Jesus, Luke.
See, that's scary, right?
You are so lame.
Ah, your face is lame.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, (roars).
Mommy help, mommy help, help.
(Luke roaring)
[Tamesha] You just can't
admit defeat, can you?
All right, come on.
All right, give your mom a kiss.
There you go.
Give daddy a kiss.
So bossy.
Yeah, right, I'm out, love you.
Love you too.
(Luke humming)
(gentle music)
Okay, from tabletop position,
gently roll back so your
bum sits over your knees,
and stretch your arms forward
and head melts gently to the mat.
Now let's get into our cobra pose.
Gently rock back up to tabletop, okay,
and extend your legs out
behind you, both legs.
Breathe in (inhales), and out (exhales),
and gently lower yourself
down and glide into cobra.
And breathe in (inhales),
and out (exhales).
(gentle music)
(Fern exhales)
(Tamesha laughs)
Ready for something more advanced?
Sure, why not?
Let's do Superman again.
- Come on.
- Okay.
(gentle music)
[Tamesha] Okay, you ready?
I think so.
Place my feet at your pelvis, okay.
Take my hands, take my
hands, and lean forward,
I'll support your weight.
Like this?
[Tamesha] Oh, yes, oh.
- That's, oh.
- Oh.
(both scream)
(both laugh)
(Fern farts)
- Oh, Fern.
(Fern laughs)
Oh, oh.
It was the dog.
(both laugh)
(wind chimes ringing)
It's so peaceful out here.
Otherwise known as completely boring.
Oi.
I mean, you've literally
chosen the dullest village
in all of the world to live in.
I like it.
Well, of course you do,
because boring people love boring places.
Your face is boring.
Oh, yes, very mature.
Did you get that comeback from Dominic?
Maybe.
Oh.
So I bought one of these the other day
and they sent me two by mistake.
Do you want it, you know,
spice up the old bedroom a little?
Our bedroom is plenty
spicy already, thank you.
Well, if you don't want it.
I didn't say that.
Oh.
Oh, gosh, is that the time?
I need to dash.
How come?
Hot date tonight!
I feel sorry for him already.
(gentle music)
Who says it's a him?!
(gentle music)
Well, enjoy yourself.
(gentle music)
(upbeat music)
[Radio Host] You are
listening to Aurora FM,
today's news headlines in the South.
Police are appealing to
members of the public
for information after the disappearance
of popular science fiction
novelist, S.K Holloway-
(car honks)
In your own time.
Paid by the hour, mate.
Feel free to lend a hand.
(door thuds)
You're late.
Driveway's blocked.
Must be the new neighbors.
(Tamesha humming)
(video game guns firing)
I am gonna go see the new neighbors.
You coming?
Schedule's pretty tight at the moment, hun.
(video game guns firing)
(Tamesha humming)
(door knocks)
Ooh.
Oh, hi, I'm-
(quirky music)
Hello.
Hi, I'm...
I'm Tamesha.
I live next door.
I just thought I'd come over
and welcome you to the neighborhood.
Welcome.
(quirky music)
Oh, ahh.
Thank you, Tamesha.
And you are?
My name is Joseph.
Good to meet you, Joseph.
I've obviously caught
you at an awkward time.
An awkward time?
[Mary] Joseph, do we have a visitor?
Oh, for fuck's sake.
Hello.
Hiya.
Mary, this is our neighbor, Tamesha.
Tamesha, this is my partner, Mary.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
Do you live alone, Tamesha?
No, with my husband and son.
How lovely.
(quirky music) (cars whooshing)
Would you like to come in, Tamesha?
I'd better get back.
But maybe you can come
over for dinner sometime.
When?
I don't know, tomorrow?
What time?
Say, 8:00 PM.
See you tomorrow at 8:00 PM.
Good, great.
I'm looking forward to it.
- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.
See ya.
(quirky music)
(door thuds)
So much for the world's dullest village.
(crowd cheering)
(TV announcer speaking indistinctly)
(Luke yawns)
So what are they like?
Yeah, different.
Seem nice enough.
You missed out.
Really?
I think you would've liked the woman.
What makes you say that?
Never mind.
I invited them for dinner.
Ugh, really?
I have to be sociable.
Why?
We are going to be good neighbors.
Well, do we have to?
We barely saw the last neighbors.
I was pretty tight with the Malones.
Oh, you were?
Yeah, when the moved away
a piece of my heart went with them,
and now you just wanna
replace them with the next bods
to jump straight in their grave.
I'm sorry, but I genuinely thought
you'd be more sensitive to my emotions.
Mm, sensitive, you say?
Yeah.
They were like family to me.
And I'm sorry, but I'm not
ready to meet someone new.
You do realize their surnames were Monroe.
(Luke sighs)
Do I have to wear a shirt?
Preferably wear clothes, yes.
So, Fern got me a little present.
Mm-hmm.
Well, if you are not interested.
I haven't forgotten it's
my birthday, have I?
(Tamesha giggles)
You are my wife, aren't you?
Oi.
I can be adventurous.
(Ominous music)
(cars whooshing)
(birds chirping)
So what are we doing out here, exactly?
Just get a few sexy pics
for my fan page, yeah?
In the woods?!
Yes, in the woods.
It gives my adoring public
a chance to see me at one with nature.
That looks like a nice spot,
doesn't it, doesn't it?
If you say so.
(Willow exhales)
(boots thudding)
I'm gorgeous, I am sexy,
I'm hot, I'm beautiful,
I'm an online sensation,
I'm an online sensation.
Oh, my God, no, Willow, aren't you cold?
It's all in the mind, my young friend.
Although it's fucking freezing,
so let's get a move on, yeah?
Okay.
Yeah, work it, girl.
No, no, no, I can't
believe I just said that.
I know, okay.
Okay, how's this?
Ah, yeah, maybe lose the wellies.
Babe, these wellies are super cute.
Fine, you're the boss.
Finally, you're getting it.
Okay, does this work?
I mean, if I were a teenage boy
I'd probably be solid as a rock so...
Really?
Oh, thanks, babe.
(Cindy laughs)
Okay, now give us a look, give us a look.
(Willow humming)
Cute.
Cute.
Cute.
Oh, my God, I'm so fricking hot.
Oh, my God, what is that?
What, where is it, a blackhead?
Show me, show me now.
No, no, what?
There's something over there.
Hmm?
(suspenseful music)
(twigs cracking)
Willow, come and have a look at this.
Gorgeous, gorgeous.
(suspenseful music)
(Cindy gasps)
(suspenseful music)
Losing daylight over here, babe.
Hello.
(suspenseful music)
No?
Okay.
(suspenseful music) (birds chirping)
Cinds?
Cindy, come out, come out wherever you are.
Hello?
Sleeping on the job, are we?
I wasn't gonna pay you or anything
but it's not very professional, is it?
Cinds?
Wakey, wakey.
(tense music)
(Willow gasps)
(line ringing)
[Operator] Emergency
Services, how can I direct your call?
Hello, anyone there?
(blood splatters)
Emergency services, can you hear me?
Hello?
- Oh.
- All right, vicious.
I thought I'd try something
a little bit different
for dinner tonight and make a
mushroom asparagus linguine.
Mm, risky choice.
Oi.
Don't tease, you'll make me nervous.
Well, you jinxed it now
so you might as well cancel
it while you still can.
Go and make yourself
useful and set the table.
(Luke sighs)
[Dominic] Daddy.
Ah, I'd love to, but duty calls.
So I'll set the table, make the dinner,
and get myself ready then, yeah?
That, my dear, is the
face of modern feminism.
Oh.
Oh, don't.
(Luke laughs)
Cheeky.
Jennifer grips the laser weapon tight,
her fingers poised on the trigger.
She can feel her heartbeat
thumping through her chest.
Two identical versions of
Jonathan stand in front of her.
One Jonathan was the love of her life,
the man who wanted to marry her.
But the other,
the other was a
body-snatching alien invader,
an imposter intent on
destroying the universe.
Only Jennifer could stop them,
but who was the real Jonathan?
Okay, I think that's enough for tonight.
Mm-mm, doesn't mommy look pretty?
Five more minutes.
Come on, it's bedtime.
Night-night, son.
Do you want me to leave the light on?
Nah, lights are for babies.
Made of strong stuff, our Dom.
Night-night, darling.
Goodnight, mommy.
I'm not so sure
you should be reading
him stories like that.
(Luke huffs)
It'll give him nightmares.
It's harmless stuff,
it's just make-believe.
It's spaceships and
aliens not, I don't know,
terrorists and rapists.
Wow.
You really have a lovely
way of reassuring me.
I was watching horror
films when I was his age.
I turned out all right.
I'm not so sure you did.
Oh, whoa, (giggling), okay, okay.
Okay, I give, I give. (doorbell rings)
Here we go.
Please be wearing clothes,
please be wearing clothes,
please be wearing clothes.
- Good evening, Tamesha.
- Good evening, Tamesha.
Hey.
We brought you a bottle of alcohol.
This is the social convention, yes?
Yes, lovely, thank you.
Thank you.
Please come in.
(footsteps thudding)
(floor creaks)
(door slams shut)
(clock ticking)
You have a nice house, Tamesha.
Oh, thank you.
Oh, and here he is.
This is my husband, Luke.
Hi, you alright?
Nice to meet ya.
Alright mate?!
No.
Luke, this is Mary and Joseph.
Alright.
When do the three wise men arrive?
(Luke laughs)
(clock ticking)
Please take a seat.
- [Luke] Yeah.
(Tamesha and Luke laugh)
Very good.
We are gonna have to
keep our eye on you two.
(clock ticking)
So should we put our keys in the bowl now
or wait till after dinner?
(Luke laughs)
I'm so sorry.
Forgive my husband's warped
sense of humor (laughs).
(clock ticking)
Where are my manners?
I didn't offer you a drink.
Wine okay?
I'll be back in a second.
(clock ticking)
I'll help.
(dog tag jingles)
(clock ticking)
(footsteps thudding)
Well, aren't they a hoot!
Shh, they'll hear you.
They certainly broke the
mold when they made her, right?
Really?
Is that an appropriate thing
to say in front of your wife?
They didn't exactly say no
to the swinging, did they?
Oh, I will bludgeon you in your sleep.
Here we are.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
Steady on, the night is young.
So what brings you here?
You invited us, Tamesha.
Oh no, I mean, what brings you to the area?
We are here on research.
Oh, okay.
Is that what you do for a living?
We are researchers.
Cool, and what are you researching?
What are we not researching?
Very cryptic, I like it.
What do you do for a living, Tamesha?
Oh, I'm an accounts manager.
Nothing that exciting,
but work's pretty flexible
so I work from home mostly.
And how about you, Luke?
A landscape gardener, second generation.
Keeps me outta trouble.
Do you often get into trouble, Luke?
(Luke chuckles)
(clock ticking)
(floor creaking)
[Dominic] Boo.
Speaking of trouble.
Oi, mister, you should be in bed.
This is your child?
Yeah, demon child.
Take the mask off.
Ah, it's hideous, put it back on.
(Tamesha laughs) (Dominic laughs)
Come on, rascal.
Take that.
Say goodnight.
Goodnight.
I'll just go check on dinner.
Let me help you.
Okay, thanks.
(clock ticking)
(birds chirping)
(pot bubbling)
How can I help, Tamesha?
You couldn't grab those out
the oven for me, could you?
Okay.
(pot bubbling)
(tense music)
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, oh.
Quickly, let's get that under the cold tap.
Does it hurt?
No.
(water splashing) (tense music)
Should I take the salad
to the dining table?
Yeah, okay.
(tense music)
(pot bubbles)
(tense music)
(Tamesha gasps)
Are you alright, Tamesha?
Yeah, I just didn't see you come back in.
Tamesha, may I use your bathroom?
Yeah, sure.
First one on the right.
Thanks.
Mm.
(Tamesha gasps)
(tense music)
(footsteps clopping)
(door creaks)
(tense music)
(footsteps clopping)
(tense music)
(door creaking)
(tense music)
(pages shuffling)
(bed cover rustles)
(tense music)
(pages shuffling)
(tense music)
(clock ticking)
(footsteps approaching)
Everything okay?
Yes, thank you, Luke.
So do you have a football team?
I don't have a football team.
Oh no, not an egg-chaser, are you?
Egg chaser?
A rugby fan.
Oh.
[Tamesha] And here we are.
I hope you're hungry,
I have made way too much.
There you go.
Hmm.
(Tamesha sighs)
(clock ticking)
This food smells very nice, Tamesha.
Well, I've been trying out a new recipe,
so hopefully it tastes alright too.
Don't wait for us, dig in.
(Joseph and Mary slurping)
(clock ticking)
(chair creaks)
(gentle music)
Will the noise not disturb the infant?
Nah, could sleep through
anything, that boy.
Thunderstorms, fireworks,
parties, ritual sacrifice,
you name it.
(gentle music)
Your child, what is his name?
Oh, it's Dominic.
How lovely.
Well, I wanted to call him Engelbert,
but Mrs here thought that Engelbert Ellery
didn't have a nice ring to it.
I mean, (laughs).
(gentle music)
How long have you and Luke resided
in the village, Tamesha?
Hmm, it's coming up to
about two years now, right?
Yeah, about a couple years, yeah.
And you have integrated
into the local community?
Yeah, like part of the furniture.
It's not very big, but
they're a lovely bunch.
Very close-knit, everyone
knows everyone's business.
(gentle music)
(cutlery clinking)
(gentle music)
So how did you two meet?
We met while doing research.
Ah, work romance, was it?
(gentle music)
I don't think we could spend
every waking moment together
without going insane.
Yeah, too much of a good thing.
Yeah, something like that.
(Luke laughs)
(Tamesha laughs)
(gentle music)
How did you two meet?
I rescued her from a burning building.
Ignore him.
We had a mutual friend who
set us up on a blind date,
and that was almost 15 years ago?
- Mm-hmm.
- Been married for 10.
You get less for murder.
(Luke laughs)
And others do not find this strange?
I'm not sure what you mean.
That you are different colours.
(gentle music)
Okay, I think it's time you leave.
But we haven't finished our meals.
You finished.
I do not understand.
Have we said something to offend you?
What's wrong with you people?
Leave it, Luke.
Is there a problem with our behavior?
Look, I don't know what
planet you guys come from,
but here on Earth, you
can't say things like that.
(Luke screams)
Fuck.
Fucking crazy.
(Tamesha gasping)
Please be aware, this
was never our intention.
Fuck.
(Luke groaning) (Bruno barking)
Fuck
(Luke screams)
(Bruno barking)
Silence the animal.
(Luke screaming) (Bruno barking)
That one is turning blue.
(Tamesha panting)
- Fuck.
No.
Bruno, run, get away from her.
Don't you fucking dare.
(Bruno barking) Bruno run.
No, fucking stop.
No, stop you fucking, ah.
(Bruno barking)
Do it now.
No, no, stop, stop. (Bruno yelps)
No.
You fucking cunt, fucking bitch.
(Tamesha sobbing)
(Luke groans)
(ornament thuds)
(Tamesha sobbing)
(tense music)
(ornament clatters)
(Luke coughing)
(tense music)
(glass shatters)
(tense music)
(Tamesha groans)
(body thuds)
(clock ticking) (tense music)
I need to repair.
The boy knows of our ways.
He must be dealt with.
Agreed.
(footsteps thudding)
Come back.
(Luke grunts)
(footsteps thudding)
(tense music)
(birds chirping)
(tense music)
Oh.
Ow.
Ah.
Luke.
Don't worry, he's still breathing.
(tense music)
(Tamesha shuffles)
(Tamesha panting)
Where's Dominic?
The child is fine.
We wish him no harm.
I need to see him.
Joseph said the child is fine.
(tense music)
Oh.
(Tamesha sobs)
Can you cover my dog, please?
Give him some dignity.
As you wish.
Not her.
You seem upset, Tamesha.
Fuck you.
(tense music)
Are you in pain, Tamesha?
(doorbell rings)
(Tamesha groaning)
(tense music)
(doorbell rings)
[Fern] Tam-Tam, it's Fern.
Tamesha?
Are you home?
If you alert your friend,
we will have no choice but to end her.
(phone ringing)
Understand?
(phone ringing) (tense music)
(doorbell rings)
I've had the worst first date.
Oh, who are you?
My name is Mary.
I'm the new neighbour.
Oh, okay.
I'm Fern, Tamesha's friend.
Hello, Fern.
(tense music)
I didn't realize she was
entertaining tonight.
Is Tamesha about?
Tamesha is unavailable.
Unavailable?
Why is that?
She's indisposed.
(tense music)
Can I come in?
Tamesha is unwell.
Really?
Why, what's happened?
(tense music)
Get rid of her.
Be convincing.
(Tamesha panting)
Hey, Fern
I think I have the flu.
(Tamesha coughs)
Don't come in, I don't
wanna risk you getting it.
Do you need me to get you anything?
No, no, no, no, I'm fine, don't worry.
Are you sure?
Yeah.
I just think I need to get some sleep.
(tense music)
I'll call you tomorrow.
Okay, sweetheart.
Get well soon.
I love your dress.
Oh, thanks.
It was lovely meeting you.
Yeah, you too.
Take care of Tamesha.
We will.
(tense music)
(Tamesha sobs)
(tense music)
You did the right thing, Tamesha.
I want to see my son.
(knife clatters)
(shooting star whooshes)
Did you take this photograph, Tamesha?
Joseph asked you a question.
It came with the house.
Do you like wasps, Tamesha?
Nobody likes wasps.
I like wasps.
I like wasps too.
Of course you do.
Do you know what's fascinating about wasps?
Enlighten me.
When a wasp is killed, it
emits a pheromone panic signal.
This attracts other wasps to the scene.
If one dies, a swarm will
arrive to take its place.
(tense music) (clock ticking)
(Luke groaning)
Luke.
(Luke groaning)
Luke.
Are you okay?
(Luke panting)
(tense music)
[Joseph] For your hand.
Well, you wouldn't want it to get infected.
(tense music)
When can I see Dominic?
When the time is right.
Joseph?
Yes, Luke?
Can I tell you something?
Of course.
(tense music)
I'm gonna snap your fucking neck.
(tense music)
You see your anger as a weapon,
but it only causes you trouble.
(tense music)
We never meant to harm you.
Our mission was purely for research.
But this research must go
undetected and undisturbed.
Unfortunately, you have
become collateral damage.
Are you gonna kill us?
Only if we have to.
(Luke panting)
Who are you?
The question is not who,
the question is what?
What do you want?
Isn't it obvious?
You will never take our planet.
What makes you think it is your planet?
You do not own this world,
you are merely the current tenants.
You do realize you'll have
a fight on your hands.
There will be no fight.
(footsteps thudding)
(tense music)
If we wanted to take this
world from you, we could,
but there is no need risking
casualties on our side.
From our observations, it
would seem your civilization
is already intent on destroying itself.
(tense music)
Once self-annihilation is achieved,
we will inhabit the Earth.
(tense music)
No invasion.
No war.
(tense music)
(footsteps thudding)
Just the evolution into a superior race.
You underestimate us.
(tense music)
Only time will tell.
Where is Dominic?
The boy is safe.
Better than safe.
Then let me see him.
Well, that depends on you, Tamesha.
What do you mean?
(tense music)
We have an offer for you.
An offer?
We would like you to join us, both of you.
(tense music)
We can cure you of your injuries.
And if I agree, you'll let me see Dominic?
You can see him right away.
You promise?
You have my word.
You can't.
What choice do we have?
(tense music)
Fetch the child.
Tamesha.
We can't risk something happening to him.
Absolutely no chance.
I'd rather be dead than anything like them.
Well, it isn't just about you, is it?
(tense music)
(footsteps thudding)
Dominic.
Oh, God.
You okay?
Your wife is a wise woman.
No matter what planet you hail from,
in all forms of life
there will come a time when
we must all make sacrifices
for the greater good.
(tense music)
Would you like to change
your decision, Luke?
(tense music)
What's next?
Next, you will be reborn.
Mummy, no.
It's okay, Dominic,
mummy's going to be fine.
Everything's going to be okay, I promise.
(tense music)
(Luke groans)
[Joseph] Come with me, Tamesha.
Will it hurt?
[Joseph] Not in the slightest.
(tense music)
(Luke grunts)
(knife clatters)
[Luke] Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
(suspenseful music)
(footsteps shuffling)
(all panting)
(Tamesha coughing)
[Dominic] Mummy, are you okay?
I'm fine.
Did they hurt you?
[Dominic] No.
I don't think they followed us.
[Dominic] Mummy. I'm scared!
I know, sweetheart.
Just gimme a second to
get my breath back, okay?
Luke, do you have your phone?
Luke?
No.
How far is the village?
I'm going back.
What?
No.
Don't be stupid.
We need to call the police
or the army or something.
And tell them what exactly?
That our new neighbours are
pod people from outta space.
They're not gonna believe you.
It doesn't matter if they believe me.
They assaulted us for Christ's sake,
they have to do something about that.
But what if they've disappeared by then?
Then good riddance.
But they're not gonna
give up though, are they?
So?
That's not our problem.
What, do you want someone
else to go through that?
No, no, of course not.
[Dominic] Mummy, stop arguing.
It's okay, honey.
Mummy and Daddy are not arguing,
we are just having a discussion.
Joseph, he went somewhere.
He went somewhere to heal.
What?
Did he?
I bet you they've got something
going on at the house.
They could have a bloody
spaceship out there
for all you know.
No, no, they said that
the boy knew of our ways.
When did they say that?
Dom mate, in the book we're
reading, the pod people,
they needed to keep the
human host alive, right?
I can't remember.
Come on think, mate, it's important.
Luke, stop it.
What happens to the alien
if you kill the host?
I dunno.
Do the humans need to be kept alive?
If the host dies then they die, yeah?
I'm not sure.
That's enough, that's enough.
He said he doesn't know.
(Dominic sobbing)
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, mate.
Yeah?
I'm sorry.
Come on.
Let's keep moving.
I'm going back.
No.
I bet you anything, they've got them there.
What if you get caught?
You saw how strong they were.
Well, I won't get caught.
Luke, for Christ's sake,
just for once in your life,
let something go.
They killed my fucking dog.
Our dog.
Look, go find a phone, call for help.
I promise, I promise,
okay, I'll be careful.
Luke.
Go get help.
(footsteps receding)
Luke, please.
(suspenseful music)
(door thuds)
(suspenseful music)
(glass shatters)
(door opening)
(suspenseful music)
(door creaking)
(suspenseful music)
(door creaks)
(Luke breathing heavily)
(door thuds)
(Mary wheezing)
Help me.
Can't move.
Please.
(suspenseful music)
I'm sorry.
(Luke inhales deeply)
(body thuds)
(Mary gagging)
(suspenseful music)
(door creaks)
(suspenseful music)
(door opens downstairs)
(suspenseful music)
(footsteps approaching)
(floor creaking)
(suspenseful music)
(floor creaking)
(footsteps receding)
(tense music)
(floor creaking)
(tense music)
(floor creaking) (tense music)
(footsteps thudding)
(Luke grunts) (knife clatters)
(Luke grunting)
(Luke choking)
You took my partner, Luke.
Now I must make your wife my own.
Sorry Joseph, but I'm not on
the market for a new hubby.
Oh.
(Tamesha panting)
Ahhhhhh...
You could have been part
of something truly wonderful.
(Luke choking)
(flesh squelching)
(Tamesha panting)
I no longer have use for you.
(suspenseful music) (Luke choking)
It is time for you to-
(suspenseful music)
(flesh squelching)
(neck cracks)
(Tamesha panting)
Oh.
(Luke panting)
I told you the linguine was a risk.
(lively music)
Cheers, little man.
Oh, sounds like a removal van.
(Van doors slamming)
Must be the new neighbours.
Maybe I'll just let them settle in first.
Can we play tennis?
I think dad needs to rest a little longer.
No, no, that's alright.
I'll get a rackets.
It's okay, father, I'll get them.
Okay, son.
He's getting rather formal
in his old age, isn't he?
Yeah.
(door thuds)
(gentle music)
No matter what planet you hail from,
in all forms of life
there will come a time when
we must all make sacrifices
for the greater good.
(gentle music)
Help, help.
(gentle music)
(upbeat Rock music)
You turn up here uninvited
To give a piece of your mind
But all these pieces are violent
And you're as cruel as you're kind
You see I hold all the cards now
You want to force me to choose
No matter how this hand plays out
Darling you're just gonna lose
Now I watch you walk away
For the last time
And I love you even
though you are a liar
My hands were reaching out
But you spit on it
Yeah you spit spit spit spit
(upbeat music)
I never thought you'd get sober
And now I guess I was right
You keep on playing the victim
But still there's no one to fight
You know I meant what I said yeah
You know I'm not coming back
My eyes are looking at midnight
I watch you fade into black
Now I watch you walk away
For the last time
And I love you even
though you are a liar
My hands were reaching out
But you spit on it
Yeah you spit spit spit spit
(upbeat music)
(explosion booms)
(phone ringing)
Hello?
[Agent] Hi, Suzie.
Can you talk?
Yeah, sure, I'm just on my way home now.
[Agent] How did the book signing go?
Yeah, it was good.
This one guy showed up
with my face embroidered on his T-shirt,
which was kind of flattering, I guess.
[Agent] Did you get my email
with the editor's notes?
Yeah, yeah, I did.
I can get the revisions for
the new draft back by Friday.
[Agent] Perfect.
Listen, the publishers
want to rethink the title.
Really, again?
[Agent] They think it's too ambiguous,
that the modern audience
needs to know exactly
what the story is about
from what it's called,
especially with international readers.
So marketing has come up
with half a dozen suggestions.
Shall I send them over?
(tense music)
Suzie?
Suzie, you still there?
Yeah, yeah, sure, that's fine.
Send them over.
[Agent] Will do.
Speak soon.
Yeah, bye.
(tense music)
(keys jangling)
(tense music)
(elevator doors rattling)
(tense music)
(tense music) (elevator burbling)
(elevator doors rattle)
(tense music)
Thank you.
(shoes thudding)
(tense music)
(keys jangling)
(door thuds)

(Suzie sighs)
(water splashing)
(water splashes)
(wind blows)
(tense music)
(water splashing) (Suzie groaning)
(tense music)
(birds chirping)
(Luke roars)
Nothing?
(Luke tuts)
(Tamesha humming)
Okay.
(Tamesha humming)
Did you feed Bruno?
Yes.
(dog tag jingles away)
Jesus, Luke.
See, that's scary, right?
You are so lame.
Ah, your face is lame.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, (roars).
Mommy help, mommy help, help.
(Luke roaring)
[Tamesha] You just can't
admit defeat, can you?
All right, come on.
All right, give your mom a kiss.
There you go.
Give daddy a kiss.
So bossy.
Yeah, right, I'm out, love you.
Love you too.
(Luke humming)
(gentle music)
Okay, from tabletop position,
gently roll back so your
bum sits over your knees,
and stretch your arms forward
and head melts gently to the mat.
Now let's get into our cobra pose.
Gently rock back up to tabletop, okay,
and extend your legs out
behind you, both legs.
Breathe in (inhales), and out (exhales),
and gently lower yourself
down and glide into cobra.
And breathe in (inhales),
and out (exhales).
(gentle music)
(Fern exhales)
(Tamesha laughs)
Ready for something more advanced?
Sure, why not?
Let's do Superman again.
- Come on.
- Okay.
(gentle music)
[Tamesha] Okay, you ready?
I think so.
Place my feet at your pelvis, okay.
Take my hands, take my
hands, and lean forward,
I'll support your weight.
Like this?
[Tamesha] Oh, yes, oh.
- That's, oh.
- Oh.
(both scream)
(both laugh)
(Fern farts)
- Oh, Fern.
(Fern laughs)
Oh, oh.
It was the dog.
(both laugh)
(wind chimes ringing)
It's so peaceful out here.
Otherwise known as completely boring.
Oi.
I mean, you've literally
chosen the dullest village
in all of the world to live in.
I like it.
Well, of course you do,
because boring people love boring places.
Your face is boring.
Oh, yes, very mature.
Did you get that comeback from Dominic?
Maybe.
Oh.
So I bought one of these the other day
and they sent me two by mistake.
Do you want it, you know,
spice up the old bedroom a little?
Our bedroom is plenty
spicy already, thank you.
Well, if you don't want it.
I didn't say that.
Oh.
Oh, gosh, is that the time?
I need to dash.
How come?
Hot date tonight!
I feel sorry for him already.
(gentle music)
Who says it's a him?!
(gentle music)
Well, enjoy yourself.
(gentle music)
(upbeat music)
[Radio Host] You are
listening to Aurora FM,
today's news headlines in the South.
Police are appealing to
members of the public
for information after the disappearance
of popular science fiction
novelist, S.K Holloway-
(car honks)
In your own time.
Paid by the hour, mate.
Feel free to lend a hand.
(door thuds)
You're late.
Driveway's blocked.
Must be the new neighbors.
(Tamesha humming)
(video game guns firing)
I am gonna go see the new neighbors.
You coming?
Schedule's pretty tight at the moment, hun.
(video game guns firing)
(Tamesha humming)
(door knocks)
Ooh.
Oh, hi, I'm-
(quirky music)
Hello.
Hi, I'm...
I'm Tamesha.
I live next door.
I just thought I'd come over
and welcome you to the neighborhood.
Welcome.
(quirky music)
Oh, ahh.
Thank you, Tamesha.
And you are?
My name is Joseph.
Good to meet you, Joseph.
I've obviously caught
you at an awkward time.
An awkward time?
[Mary] Joseph, do we have a visitor?
Oh, for fuck's sake.
Hello.
Hiya.
Mary, this is our neighbor, Tamesha.
Tamesha, this is my partner, Mary.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
Do you live alone, Tamesha?
No, with my husband and son.
How lovely.
(quirky music) (cars whooshing)
Would you like to come in, Tamesha?
I'd better get back.
But maybe you can come
over for dinner sometime.
When?
I don't know, tomorrow?
What time?
Say, 8:00 PM.
See you tomorrow at 8:00 PM.
Good, great.
I'm looking forward to it.
- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.
See ya.
(quirky music)
(door thuds)
So much for the world's dullest village.
(crowd cheering)
(TV announcer speaking indistinctly)
(Luke yawns)
So what are they like?
Yeah, different.
Seem nice enough.
You missed out.
Really?
I think you would've liked the woman.
What makes you say that?
Never mind.
I invited them for dinner.
Ugh, really?
I have to be sociable.
Why?
We are going to be good neighbors.
Well, do we have to?
We barely saw the last neighbors.
I was pretty tight with the Malones.
Oh, you were?
Yeah, when the moved away
a piece of my heart went with them,
and now you just wanna
replace them with the next bods
to jump straight in their grave.
I'm sorry, but I genuinely thought
you'd be more sensitive to my emotions.
Mm, sensitive, you say?
Yeah.
They were like family to me.
And I'm sorry, but I'm not
ready to meet someone new.
You do realize their surnames were Monroe.
(Luke sighs)
Do I have to wear a shirt?
Preferably wear clothes, yes.
So, Fern got me a little present.
Mm-hmm.
Well, if you are not interested.
I haven't forgotten it's
my birthday, have I?
(Tamesha giggles)
You are my wife, aren't you?
Oi.
I can be adventurous.
(Ominous music)
(cars whooshing)
(birds chirping)
So what are we doing out here, exactly?
Just get a few sexy pics
for my fan page, yeah?
In the woods?!
Yes, in the woods.
It gives my adoring public
a chance to see me at one with nature.
That looks like a nice spot,
doesn't it, doesn't it?
If you say so.
(Willow exhales)
(boots thudding)
I'm gorgeous, I am sexy,
I'm hot, I'm beautiful,
I'm an online sensation,
I'm an online sensation.
Oh, my God, no, Willow, aren't you cold?
It's all in the mind, my young friend.
Although it's fucking freezing,
so let's get a move on, yeah?
Okay.
Yeah, work it, girl.
No, no, no, I can't
believe I just said that.
I know, okay.
Okay, how's this?
Ah, yeah, maybe lose the wellies.
Babe, these wellies are super cute.
Fine, you're the boss.
Finally, you're getting it.
Okay, does this work?
I mean, if I were a teenage boy
I'd probably be solid as a rock so...
Really?
Oh, thanks, babe.
(Cindy laughs)
Okay, now give us a look, give us a look.
(Willow humming)
Cute.
Cute.
Cute.
Oh, my God, I'm so fricking hot.
Oh, my God, what is that?
What, where is it, a blackhead?
Show me, show me now.
No, no, what?
There's something over there.
Hmm?
(suspenseful music)
(twigs cracking)
Willow, come and have a look at this.
Gorgeous, gorgeous.
(suspenseful music)
(Cindy gasps)
(suspenseful music)
Losing daylight over here, babe.
Hello.
(suspenseful music)
No?
Okay.
(suspenseful music) (birds chirping)
Cinds?
Cindy, come out, come out wherever you are.
Hello?
Sleeping on the job, are we?
I wasn't gonna pay you or anything
but it's not very professional, is it?
Cinds?
Wakey, wakey.
(tense music)
(Willow gasps)
(line ringing)
[Operator] Emergency
Services, how can I direct your call?
Hello, anyone there?
(blood splatters)
Emergency services, can you hear me?
Hello?
- Oh.
- All right, vicious.
I thought I'd try something
a little bit different
for dinner tonight and make a
mushroom asparagus linguine.
Mm, risky choice.
Oi.
Don't tease, you'll make me nervous.
Well, you jinxed it now
so you might as well cancel
it while you still can.
Go and make yourself
useful and set the table.
(Luke sighs)
[Dominic] Daddy.
Ah, I'd love to, but duty calls.
So I'll set the table, make the dinner,
and get myself ready then, yeah?
That, my dear, is the
face of modern feminism.
Oh.
Oh, don't.
(Luke laughs)
Cheeky.
Jennifer grips the laser weapon tight,
her fingers poised on the trigger.
She can feel her heartbeat
thumping through her chest.
Two identical versions of
Jonathan stand in front of her.
One Jonathan was the love of her life,
the man who wanted to marry her.
But the other,
the other was a
body-snatching alien invader,
an imposter intent on
destroying the universe.
Only Jennifer could stop them,
but who was the real Jonathan?
Okay, I think that's enough for tonight.
Mm-mm, doesn't mommy look pretty?
Five more minutes.
Come on, it's bedtime.
Night-night, son.
Do you want me to leave the light on?
Nah, lights are for babies.
Made of strong stuff, our Dom.
Night-night, darling.
Goodnight, mommy.
I'm not so sure
you should be reading
him stories like that.
(Luke huffs)
It'll give him nightmares.
It's harmless stuff,
it's just make-believe.
It's spaceships and
aliens not, I don't know,
terrorists and rapists.
Wow.
You really have a lovely
way of reassuring me.
I was watching horror
films when I was his age.
I turned out all right.
I'm not so sure you did.
Oh, whoa, (giggling), okay, okay.
Okay, I give, I give. (doorbell rings)
Here we go.
Please be wearing clothes,
please be wearing clothes,
please be wearing clothes.
- Good evening, Tamesha.
- Good evening, Tamesha.
Hey.
We brought you a bottle of alcohol.
This is the social convention, yes?
Yes, lovely, thank you.
Thank you.
Please come in.
(footsteps thudding)
(floor creaks)
(door slams shut)
(clock ticking)
You have a nice house, Tamesha.
Oh, thank you.
Oh, and here he is.
This is my husband, Luke.
Hi, you alright?
Nice to meet ya.
Alright mate?!
No.
Luke, this is Mary and Joseph.
Alright.
When do the three wise men arrive?
(Luke laughs)
(clock ticking)
Please take a seat.
- [Luke] Yeah.
(Tamesha and Luke laugh)
Very good.
We are gonna have to
keep our eye on you two.
(clock ticking)
So should we put our keys in the bowl now
or wait till after dinner?
(Luke laughs)
I'm so sorry.
Forgive my husband's warped
sense of humor (laughs).
(clock ticking)
Where are my manners?
I didn't offer you a drink.
Wine okay?
I'll be back in a second.
(clock ticking)
I'll help.
(dog tag jingles)
(clock ticking)
(footsteps thudding)
Well, aren't they a hoot!
Shh, they'll hear you.
They certainly broke the
mold when they made her, right?
Really?
Is that an appropriate thing
to say in front of your wife?
They didn't exactly say no
to the swinging, did they?
Oh, I will bludgeon you in your sleep.
Here we are.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
Steady on, the night is young.
So what brings you here?
You invited us, Tamesha.
Oh no, I mean, what brings you to the area?
We are here on research.
Oh, okay.
Is that what you do for a living?
We are researchers.
Cool, and what are you researching?
What are we not researching?
Very cryptic, I like it.
What do you do for a living, Tamesha?
Oh, I'm an accounts manager.
Nothing that exciting,
but work's pretty flexible
so I work from home mostly.
And how about you, Luke?
A landscape gardener, second generation.
Keeps me outta trouble.
Do you often get into trouble, Luke?
(Luke chuckles)
(clock ticking)
(floor creaking)
[Dominic] Boo.
Speaking of trouble.
Oi, mister, you should be in bed.
This is your child?
Yeah, demon child.
Take the mask off.
Ah, it's hideous, put it back on.
(Tamesha laughs) (Dominic laughs)
Come on, rascal.
Take that.
Say goodnight.
Goodnight.
I'll just go check on dinner.
Let me help you.
Okay, thanks.
(clock ticking)
(birds chirping)
(pot bubbling)
How can I help, Tamesha?
You couldn't grab those out
the oven for me, could you?
Okay.
(pot bubbling)
(tense music)
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, oh.
Quickly, let's get that under the cold tap.
Does it hurt?
No.
(water splashing) (tense music)
Should I take the salad
to the dining table?
Yeah, okay.
(tense music)
(pot bubbles)
(tense music)
(Tamesha gasps)
Are you alright, Tamesha?
Yeah, I just didn't see you come back in.
Tamesha, may I use your bathroom?
Yeah, sure.
First one on the right.
Thanks.
Mm.
(Tamesha gasps)
(tense music)
(footsteps clopping)
(door creaks)
(tense music)
(footsteps clopping)
(tense music)
(door creaking)
(tense music)
(pages shuffling)
(bed cover rustles)
(tense music)
(pages shuffling)
(tense music)
(clock ticking)
(footsteps approaching)
Everything okay?
Yes, thank you, Luke.
So do you have a football team?
I don't have a football team.
Oh no, not an egg-chaser, are you?
Egg chaser?
A rugby fan.
Oh.
[Tamesha] And here we are.
I hope you're hungry,
I have made way too much.
There you go.
Hmm.
(Tamesha sighs)
(clock ticking)
This food smells very nice, Tamesha.
Well, I've been trying out a new recipe,
so hopefully it tastes alright too.
Don't wait for us, dig in.
(Joseph and Mary slurping)
(clock ticking)
(chair creaks)
(gentle music)
Will the noise not disturb the infant?
Nah, could sleep through
anything, that boy.
Thunderstorms, fireworks,
parties, ritual sacrifice,
you name it.
(gentle music)
Your child, what is his name?
Oh, it's Dominic.
How lovely.
Well, I wanted to call him Engelbert,
but Mrs here thought that Engelbert Ellery
didn't have a nice ring to it.
I mean, (laughs).
(gentle music)
How long have you and Luke resided
in the village, Tamesha?
Hmm, it's coming up to
about two years now, right?
Yeah, about a couple years, yeah.
And you have integrated
into the local community?
Yeah, like part of the furniture.
It's not very big, but
they're a lovely bunch.
Very close-knit, everyone
knows everyone's business.
(gentle music)
(cutlery clinking)
(gentle music)
So how did you two meet?
We met while doing research.
Ah, work romance, was it?
(gentle music)
I don't think we could spend
every waking moment together
without going insane.
Yeah, too much of a good thing.
Yeah, something like that.
(Luke laughs)
(Tamesha laughs)
(gentle music)
How did you two meet?
I rescued her from a burning building.
Ignore him.
We had a mutual friend who
set us up on a blind date,
and that was almost 15 years ago?
- Mm-hmm.
- Been married for 10.
You get less for murder.
(Luke laughs)
And others do not find this strange?
I'm not sure what you mean.
That you are different colours.
(gentle music)
Okay, I think it's time you leave.
But we haven't finished our meals.
You finished.
I do not understand.
Have we said something to offend you?
What's wrong with you people?
Leave it, Luke.
Is there a problem with our behavior?
Look, I don't know what
planet you guys come from,
but here on Earth, you
can't say things like that.
(Luke screams)
Fuck.
Fucking crazy.
(Tamesha gasping)
Please be aware, this
was never our intention.
Fuck.
(Luke groaning) (Bruno barking)
Fuck
(Luke screams)
(Bruno barking)
Silence the animal.
(Luke screaming) (Bruno barking)
That one is turning blue.
(Tamesha panting)
- Fuck.
No.
Bruno, run, get away from her.
Don't you fucking dare.
(Bruno barking) Bruno run.
No, fucking stop.
No, stop you fucking, ah.
(Bruno barking)
Do it now.
No, no, stop, stop. (Bruno yelps)
No.
You fucking cunt, fucking bitch.
(Tamesha sobbing)
(Luke groans)
(ornament thuds)
(Tamesha sobbing)
(tense music)
(ornament clatters)
(Luke coughing)
(tense music)
(glass shatters)
(tense music)
(Tamesha groans)
(body thuds)
(clock ticking) (tense music)
I need to repair.
The boy knows of our ways.
He must be dealt with.
Agreed.
(footsteps thudding)
Come back.
(Luke grunts)
(footsteps thudding)
(tense music)
(birds chirping)
(tense music)
Oh.
Ow.
Ah.
Luke.
Don't worry, he's still breathing.
(tense music)
(Tamesha shuffles)
(Tamesha panting)
Where's Dominic?
The child is fine.
We wish him no harm.
I need to see him.
Joseph said the child is fine.
(tense music)
Oh.
(Tamesha sobs)
Can you cover my dog, please?
Give him some dignity.
As you wish.
Not her.
You seem upset, Tamesha.
Fuck you.
(tense music)
Are you in pain, Tamesha?
(doorbell rings)
(Tamesha groaning)
(tense music)
(doorbell rings)
[Fern] Tam-Tam, it's Fern.
Tamesha?
Are you home?
If you alert your friend,
we will have no choice but to end her.
(phone ringing)
Understand?
(phone ringing) (tense music)
(doorbell rings)
I've had the worst first date.
Oh, who are you?
My name is Mary.
I'm the new neighbour.
Oh, okay.
I'm Fern, Tamesha's friend.
Hello, Fern.
(tense music)
I didn't realize she was
entertaining tonight.
Is Tamesha about?
Tamesha is unavailable.
Unavailable?
Why is that?
She's indisposed.
(tense music)
Can I come in?
Tamesha is unwell.
Really?
Why, what's happened?
(tense music)
Get rid of her.
Be convincing.
(Tamesha panting)
Hey, Fern
I think I have the flu.
(Tamesha coughs)
Don't come in, I don't
wanna risk you getting it.
Do you need me to get you anything?
No, no, no, no, I'm fine, don't worry.
Are you sure?
Yeah.
I just think I need to get some sleep.
(tense music)
I'll call you tomorrow.
Okay, sweetheart.
Get well soon.
I love your dress.
Oh, thanks.
It was lovely meeting you.
Yeah, you too.
Take care of Tamesha.
We will.
(tense music)
(Tamesha sobs)
(tense music)
You did the right thing, Tamesha.
I want to see my son.
(knife clatters)
(shooting star whooshes)
Did you take this photograph, Tamesha?
Joseph asked you a question.
It came with the house.
Do you like wasps, Tamesha?
Nobody likes wasps.
I like wasps.
I like wasps too.
Of course you do.
Do you know what's fascinating about wasps?
Enlighten me.
When a wasp is killed, it
emits a pheromone panic signal.
This attracts other wasps to the scene.
If one dies, a swarm will
arrive to take its place.
(tense music) (clock ticking)
(Luke groaning)
Luke.
(Luke groaning)
Luke.
Are you okay?
(Luke panting)
(tense music)
[Joseph] For your hand.
Well, you wouldn't want it to get infected.
(tense music)
When can I see Dominic?
When the time is right.
Joseph?
Yes, Luke?
Can I tell you something?
Of course.
(tense music)
I'm gonna snap your fucking neck.
(tense music)
You see your anger as a weapon,
but it only causes you trouble.
(tense music)
We never meant to harm you.
Our mission was purely for research.
But this research must go
undetected and undisturbed.
Unfortunately, you have
become collateral damage.
Are you gonna kill us?
Only if we have to.
(Luke panting)
Who are you?
The question is not who,
the question is what?
What do you want?
Isn't it obvious?
You will never take our planet.
What makes you think it is your planet?
You do not own this world,
you are merely the current tenants.
You do realize you'll have
a fight on your hands.
There will be no fight.
(footsteps thudding)
(tense music)
If we wanted to take this
world from you, we could,
but there is no need risking
casualties on our side.
From our observations, it
would seem your civilization
is already intent on destroying itself.
(tense music)
Once self-annihilation is achieved,
we will inhabit the Earth.
(tense music)
No invasion.
No war.
(tense music)
(footsteps thudding)
Just the evolution into a superior race.
You underestimate us.
(tense music)
Only time will tell.
Where is Dominic?
The boy is safe.
Better than safe.
Then let me see him.
Well, that depends on you, Tamesha.
What do you mean?
(tense music)
We have an offer for you.
An offer?
We would like you to join us, both of you.
(tense music)
We can cure you of your injuries.
And if I agree, you'll let me see Dominic?
You can see him right away.
You promise?
You have my word.
You can't.
What choice do we have?
(tense music)
Fetch the child.
Tamesha.
We can't risk something happening to him.
Absolutely no chance.
I'd rather be dead than anything like them.
Well, it isn't just about you, is it?
(tense music)
(footsteps thudding)
Dominic.
Oh, God.
You okay?
Your wife is a wise woman.
No matter what planet you hail from,
in all forms of life
there will come a time when
we must all make sacrifices
for the greater good.
(tense music)
Would you like to change
your decision, Luke?
(tense music)
What's next?
Next, you will be reborn.
Mummy, no.
It's okay, Dominic,
mummy's going to be fine.
Everything's going to be okay, I promise.
(tense music)
(Luke groans)
[Joseph] Come with me, Tamesha.
Will it hurt?
[Joseph] Not in the slightest.
(tense music)
(Luke grunts)
(knife clatters)
[Luke] Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
(suspenseful music)
(footsteps shuffling)
(all panting)
(Tamesha coughing)
[Dominic] Mummy, are you okay?
I'm fine.
Did they hurt you?
[Dominic] No.
I don't think they followed us.
[Dominic] Mummy. I'm scared!
I know, sweetheart.
Just gimme a second to
get my breath back, okay?
Luke, do you have your phone?
Luke?
No.
How far is the village?
I'm going back.
What?
No.
Don't be stupid.
We need to call the police
or the army or something.
And tell them what exactly?
That our new neighbours are
pod people from outta space.
They're not gonna believe you.
It doesn't matter if they believe me.
They assaulted us for Christ's sake,
they have to do something about that.
But what if they've disappeared by then?
Then good riddance.
But they're not gonna
give up though, are they?
So?
That's not our problem.
What, do you want someone
else to go through that?
No, no, of course not.
[Dominic] Mummy, stop arguing.
It's okay, honey.
Mummy and Daddy are not arguing,
we are just having a discussion.
Joseph, he went somewhere.
He went somewhere to heal.
What?
Did he?
I bet you they've got something
going on at the house.
They could have a bloody
spaceship out there
for all you know.
No, no, they said that
the boy knew of our ways.
When did they say that?
Dom mate, in the book we're
reading, the pod people,
they needed to keep the
human host alive, right?
I can't remember.
Come on think, mate, it's important.
Luke, stop it.
What happens to the alien
if you kill the host?
I dunno.
Do the humans need to be kept alive?
If the host dies then they die, yeah?
I'm not sure.
That's enough, that's enough.
He said he doesn't know.
(Dominic sobbing)
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, mate.
Yeah?
I'm sorry.
Come on.
Let's keep moving.
I'm going back.
No.
I bet you anything, they've got them there.
What if you get caught?
You saw how strong they were.
Well, I won't get caught.
Luke, for Christ's sake,
just for once in your life,
let something go.
They killed my fucking dog.
Our dog.
Look, go find a phone, call for help.
I promise, I promise,
okay, I'll be careful.
Luke.
Go get help.
(footsteps receding)
Luke, please.
(suspenseful music)
(door thuds)
(suspenseful music)
(glass shatters)
(door opening)
(suspenseful music)
(door creaking)
(suspenseful music)
(door creaks)
(Luke breathing heavily)
(door thuds)
(Mary wheezing)
Help me.
Can't move.
Please.
(suspenseful music)
I'm sorry.
(Luke inhales deeply)
(body thuds)
(Mary gagging)
(suspenseful music)
(door creaks)
(suspenseful music)
(door opens downstairs)
(suspenseful music)
(footsteps approaching)
(floor creaking)
(suspenseful music)
(floor creaking)
(footsteps receding)
(tense music)
(floor creaking)
(tense music)
(floor creaking) (tense music)
(footsteps thudding)
(Luke grunts) (knife clatters)
(Luke grunting)
(Luke choking)
You took my partner, Luke.
Now I must make your wife my own.
Sorry Joseph, but I'm not on
the market for a new hubby.
Oh.
(Tamesha panting)
Ahhhhhh...
You could have been part
of something truly wonderful.
(Luke choking)
(flesh squelching)
(Tamesha panting)
I no longer have use for you.
(suspenseful music) (Luke choking)
It is time for you to-
(suspenseful music)
(flesh squelching)
(neck cracks)
(Tamesha panting)
Oh.
(Luke panting)
I told you the linguine was a risk.
(lively music)
Cheers, little man.
Oh, sounds like a removal van.
(Van doors slamming)
Must be the new neighbours.
Maybe I'll just let them settle in first.
Can we play tennis?
I think dad needs to rest a little longer.
No, no, that's alright.
I'll get a rackets.
It's okay, father, I'll get them.
Okay, son.
He's getting rather formal
in his old age, isn't he?
Yeah.
(door thuds)
(gentle music)
No matter what planet you hail from,
in all forms of life
there will come a time when
we must all make sacrifices
for the greater good.
(gentle music)
Help, help.
(gentle music)
(upbeat Rock music)
You turn up here uninvited
To give a piece of your mind
But all these pieces are violent
And you're as cruel as you're kind
You see I hold all the cards now
You want to force me to choose
No matter how this hand plays out
Darling you're just gonna lose
Now I watch you walk away
For the last time
And I love you even
though you are a liar
My hands were reaching out
But you spit on it
Yeah you spit spit spit spit
(upbeat music)
I never thought you'd get sober
And now I guess I was right
You keep on playing the victim
But still there's no one to fight
You know I meant what I said yeah
You know I'm not coming back
My eyes are looking at midnight
I watch you fade into black
Now I watch you walk away
For the last time
And I love you even
though you are a liar
My hands were reaching out
But you spit on it
Yeah you spit spit spit spit
(upbeat music)
