Black Phone 2 (2025)

1. Hello?

2. Hope. Hope Adler.

3. Who is this?

4. Alpine Lake.

5. It-it's a youth camp in the mountains.

6. I, um...

7. I had these dreams.

8. Seven numbers.

9. No area code, so this call is local.

10. You're here in Colorado, right?

11. The numbers were carved in ice.

12. Yes.

13. Yes.

14. Who is this?

15. Who are you?

16. Hello? Can you hear me?

17. Hello?

18. STUDENTS Fight! Fight!

19. Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!

20. Fight! Fight! Fight!

21. Got to get up, man.

22. Finn!

23. You're hurting him!

24. Finney!

25. STUDENT ON GROUND Please, stop. Please.

26. You done yet?

27. Yes.

28. Stay the fuck away from me.

29. Anyone else?

30. Hey.

31. What the hell was that?

32. New kid.

33. Are you just beating up new kids now?

34. He started it.

35. What was it this time?

36. Uh, the usual.

37. "Heard you were the badass that wasted a serial killer.

38. You don't look so tough."

39. He didn't really say that.

40. Yeah, he actually did.

41. Did you have to go so hard on him?

42. In a situation like that,

43. the more blood, the better— for the crowd.

44. Proves a stronger point.

45. You've made that point more than once,

46. so maybe— and I'm just spitballing here—

47. maybe the point you're actually making

48. is less "don't fuck with me" and more "I'm the guy to beat."

49. Hey, Gwen, Finn.

50. Great fight, man.

51. Thanks, Ernesto.

52. - Hi, Ernie. - So, uh, tonight,

53. uh, I'm going to go down to the Civic Center

54. to wait in line for Duran Duran tickets.

55. - Duran Duran tickets? - He just said that.

56. Simon Le Bon is so choice.

57. A-Are you going, Gwen?

58. I wish. Those tickets cost a mint.

59. My treat. I was gonna buy two anyway.

60. It'd, you know, be cool

61. to have someone to go with who's... who's also a fan.

62. - For real? - For real.

63. That'd be radical.

64. Consider it done.

65. All right, well, I-I got to get to shop class.

66. See ya.

67. You know that's a date.

68. - No, it's not. - Yeah, it is.

69. Okay, so what if it's a date?

70. I don't know, I... I just don't like him.

71. I don't get why.

72. He's really nice.

73. Besides that, don't you think Robin

74. would want you looking out for his kid brother?

75. But that doesn't mean letting him boink my little sister.

76. - Ow. - Don't be gross, jizz mopper.

77. Welcome back to Night Flight.

78. Here's German band FEX

79. with their new hit, "Subways of Your Mind."

80. Night, son.

81. I'm off to bed.

82. Night.

83. Don't stay up too late.

84. Yeah, sure.

85. If you try to touch me, I'll scratch your face.

86. This face?

87. Hey.

88. Still not my thing.

89. Don't tell Dad.

90. Fuck off, slap-dick.

91. I'm no narc.

92. You okay?

93. I'm fine.

94. No, I-I mean...

95. I don't want to talk about it.

96. It's okay that you feel this way.

97. You don't know how I feel.

98. No, but...

99. I know, however you feel, it's okay.

100. FINN Hey, what are you doing?

101. Hey.

102. Hey, Gwen.

103. Gwen, wake up. What are you...

104. Why are you so cold?

105. Finn?

106. It's okay.

107. You were sleepwalking again.

108. Jesus. Your skin is like ice.

109. I had a bad dream.

110. It's okay. Just... go back to bed.

111. I-I said I had a bad dream.

112. I heard you. Just go back to bed.

113. Hey, witch.

114. Hey, Gwen.

115. Hey, Ernie.

116. Check it out.

117. Oh, choice.

118. I can't believe it.

119. So, uh, you're into a lot of that...

120. that woo-woo stuff, right?

121. What? You mean ghosts?

122. Spirits? Glimpses of the world beyond?

123. - Yeah. - Okay, then.

124. Yeah, I believe in all that woo-woo stuff.

125. Cool.

126. Uh, I-I brought you something else.

127. Ernesto, is this lotería?

128. Yeah.

129. My abuela sells them in her shop,

130. and I thought they looked cool.

131. They're like tarot.

132. These are beautiful.

133. I mean, you can use them like tarot.

134. If you have the sight, they can show you things.

135. And you have that, right?

136. Have what?

137. Oh, I mean, like, you have... you have dreams and stuff,

138. and they... they show you things?

139. Where did you hear that?

140. My parents.

141. Back, you know, they said that the police got

142. an anonymous call where...

143. where, um, Robin's body was.

144. But they say it was you.

145. That you dreamed it.

146. Or-or something.

147. I don't like talking about that.

148. Mm, why not?

149. 'Cause it's weird.

150. I'm weird.

151. Maybe I like weird.

152. I'm sorry, but I can't help you.

153. Hello?

154. HOPE Hello?

155. Who's this?

156. Hope. Hope Adler.

157. Who is this?

158. My name is Gwen.

159. Where are you calling from?

160. Alpine Lake.

161. It-it's a youth camp in the mountains.

162. How did you get this number?

163. I, um... I had these dreams.

164. Seven numbers.

165. No area code, so this call is local.

166. You're here in Colorado, right?

167. Yes.

168. The numbers were carved in ice.

169. By boys.

170. Underwater.

171. Yes. Yes.

172. I had the same dreams, but the boys carved letters.

173. Who is this?

174. Who are you?

175. My name is Gwen.

176. Hello?

177. I-I said my name is Gwen.

178. Hello? Can you hear me?

179. You shouldn't be here.

180. Hey.

181. Hey, Gwen.

182. Gwen.

183. Am I really here?

184. You're okay.

185. You were sleepwalking again. You came here in your sleep.

186. I heard you leave, and I followed you.

187. I feel like I'm crazy. What the hell?

188. - Hey, hey. Look at me. Hey, hey. - What the hell?

189. You're okay, you're okay, you're okay.

190. I-I was on the phone.

191. Finn.

192. I was talking to Mom.

193. It was just a dream.

194. N-No, it was...

195. a dream, yeah, but it was her.

196. She called me.

197. From a youth camp.

198. A youth camp?

199. She reached out to me from there for a reason.

200. Come on. Let's get you out of here.

201. - What's this? - Camp Alpine Lake.

202. The camp Mom called from.

203. We have to go there.

204. Gwen, stop this.

205. It was just a dream.

206. About a real place.

207. A place I found. It's why I had the dream.

208. It's a Christian youth camp

209. up near Silverthorne.

210. What's this?

211. They're accepting applications for CITs

212. for middle school winter camp.

213. What's a CIT?

214. Counselor in training.

215. No...

216. I'm not going to be a counselor for junior highers

217. at some weird Jesus camp you dreamed about.

218. No, you're going to be a counselor in training.

219. - No, I'm not. - Come on.

220. Dad has been hounding you to get a job,

221. and this is a job that pays.

222. And we can find out what Mom...

223. I said no.

224. What's going on in here?

225. Uh, Gwen wants us to get jobs at some Christian winter camp.

226. Not Camp Alpine.

227. Hmm.

228. Your mother worked there.

229. Wh-When?

230. Uh, it was long before I met her.

231. It closed in '58.

232. How'd you hear about this place?

233. Uh, um, I-I had...

234. Some kids at school.

235. Said it was a good way to, uh, make some money.

236. Christian camp.

237. You guys, you know I don't...

238. much like any of that religion stuff, you know?

239. It-it's just a job, Dad.

240. Mom worked there.

241. I'm not crazy.

242. I never said you were crazy.

243. Don't let me hear you took that thing

244. any faster than 55.

245. Y-Yes, sir.

246. I would like my daughter back unscathed.

247. - Do you understand? - Yes, sir.

248. Do you say anything else?

249. Yes, sir.

250. Uh, uh, I-I mean...

251. I don't like the way he looks at her.

252. Yeah. Me, neither.

253. Damn it. Wait.

254. "Wait," what?

255. Good.

256. Go look after your sister.

257. Do me a favor while I'm gone.

258. Yeah, anything, son.

259. Don't get drunk.

260. Hey, come on.

261. When are you gonna believe I'm done with all of that?

262. In two weeks, I get my three-year chip.

263. I'll have it when you get back.

264. See you in a few weeks.

265. Okay. Great.

266. Finally get some peace and quiet around this place.

267. I can't see the road.

268. This isn't safe.

269. We could drive off a cliff and not even see it.

270. Stop the car.

271. What are you doing?

272. I'm gonna run in front of the car

273. so I can see the road.

274. Just follow me.

275. Follow me!

276. Mando!

277. I found your stray CITs.

278. Straight ahead about 20 yards.

279. Park anywhere.

280. Thank you.

281. You must be the Blakes.

282. Yeah, how'd you know?

283. Oh, they closed I-6 at Silverthorne.

284. You're the only ones who didn't get the call in time.

285. I'm Armando.

286. Or just Mando, if you like.

287. Come on. Come with me. Let's get you inside.

288. What about all the kids?

289. Aren't they supposed to arrive tomorrow?

290. Camp's canceled.

291. They won't plow the roads until the storm passes.

292. How many people made it here?

293. Just you three.

294. Support staff has only been here a week,

295. but otherwise, you're it.

296. I'm sorry to say it, but for now you're stuck here.

297. Come on, Gwen.

298. You're with me.

299. This is it. Take any bunk you want.

300. Heaters are on, so just give 'em a few minutes.

301. It will be toasty in no time, all right?

302. Have a good night, kids. Sweet dreams.

303. I got to sleep in here alone?

304. Afraid so.

305. State law requires separate housing

306. for male and female minors.

307. I'd stay in here with you,

308. but I'm not a registered counselor, so no can do.

309. But my cabin is just over there, if you need anything.

310. Night.

311. I'm sorry, but I can't help you.

312. Who is this?

313. Hello?

314. Is anyone there?

315. GRABBER Hello, Finney.

316. Hell is not flames, Finney.

317. It's ice.

318. Nothing burns like the cold.

319. Gwen. Gwen!

320. Gwen, Gwen, Gwen!

321. Hey, Gwen, Gwen, look at me!

322. Hey, hey, look at me! Wake up! Wake up!

323. Hey, hey.

324. What's happening to me?

325. Oh, God, I feel crazy.

326. You were dreaming. You're okay.

327. - You're okay. - I feel crazy.

328. You're okay. You're okay.

329. You're okay. You're okay.

330. You're okay.

331. Gwen.

332. I had a bad dream.

333. Okay. Y-You... you all right?

334. Here, uh... lie down.

335. Jesus...

336. please don't let me have another dream tonight.

337. Please.

338. Hey.

339. Y-You okay?

340. Yeah.

341. Did I wake you?

342. No.

343. Was that for real?

344. What?

345. You talk to Jesus just like that?

346. Yeah.

347. You think it's weird?

348. Uh, no. No, not-not at all.

349. I th... I think it's hot.

350. You think it's hot that I talk to Jesus?

351. Yeah. I mean, it might even be hotter if you called him

352. Jesús.

353. You know, my mom is Catholic as hell.

354. She'd love me dating somebody who prays.

355. We're dating?

356. Uh, um, I mean, I was... I was just saying that...

357. I'm a good Christian girl?

358. Sure.

359. Why not?

360. My mom was Christian, too.

361. Dad didn't want us brought up in the church, but...

362. I asked a lot of questions.

363. And when he wasn't around, she answered.

364. Did she know about your dream thing?

365. I got it from her.

366. It drove her crazy.

367. I'm scared the same thing will happen to me.

368. It won't.

369. You're too strong for that.

370. You don't think I'm a freak?

371. What's wrong with being a freak?

372. I'm a freak like my mom.

373. Were you close to her?

374. Yeah.

375. I think about her every day.

376. I can still see her face so clearly.

377. She was beautiful.

378. I think... you're beautiful.

379. What about me? Do you think I'm beautiful?

380. Finn, you rotting shit stain.

381. Have you been listening this whole time?

382. Well, I'm still right here,

383. so it's not like I had any choice.

384. I-I thought he was asleep.

385. Told you Duran Duran is a date.

386. Ernesto, I need to talk to Gwen alone.

387. If it's about last night, he knows.

388. Knows what?

389. Why do you think he's here?

390. He came to help us investigate.

391. Wait, you told him about your dreams?

392. Hmm. Yeah, Finn, I know about her dreams.

393. And about the calls that you get.

394. - Gwen. - We can trust him.

395. Okay, but it wasn't yours to tell.

396. Okay, I haven't told anyone.

397. Because you don't have any friends.

398. I... I have friends.

399. Name one.

400. One you've brought home to hang out.

401. One you've even mentioned in a conversation at all.

402. Gwen, it wasn't yours to tell.

403. I have to tell somebody, Finn.

404. You never want to hear about my dreams.

405. - That's not true. - See this?

406. This happened last night in my dream.

407. One of the kids grabbed me.

408. In... in your dream?

409. - Gwen, this is bad. - Morning, campers!

410. Another glorious God-given day here at Camp Alpine Lake.

411. Breakfast in the mess hall.

412. Come get some grub!

413. Where'd you get those tattoos?

414. Jail.

415. But that was a long time ago.

416. News reports say this is the worst blizzard since '46.

417. Denver is shut down.

418. Best-case scenario is two days, maybe three.

419. It could be longer.

420. You've met my niece Mustang.

421. She works the stables and in the kitchen with me.

422. Mustang? Like the car?

423. Like the horse.

424. Uh, how many other people are here?

425. Just Kenneth and Barbara, who run the offices.

426. Rest of the support staff got out

427. before they closed the roads.

428. So, how did everyone sleep?

429. - Fine. - Fine.

430. I noticed you slept with the boys.

431. I can lose my camp license for that. Don't do it again.

432. Now, for the $64,000 question:

433. Why are you guys here?

434. To be camp CITs.

435. No, I...

436. I get that.

437. I mean, none of you ever attended here as campers,

438. and none of you listed churches on your applications,

439. so that means you didn't get one of our flyers.

440. So, why are you here?

441. Huh?

442. Leave me out of this, please.

443. Our mom went here.

444. Oh. Camper or counselor?

445. Counselor. Her name was Hope Adler.

446. "Was"?

447. She died seven years ago.

448. Mm. I'm sorry.

449. Do you remember her?

450. A lot of kids come through here.

451. Do you know her camp name?

452. Support staff and counselors, they get camp names.

453. It's easier for the campers to remember who's who.

454. Starlight.

455. You're Starlight's kids?

456. You do remember her.

457. Very well.

458. Sh-She was a true light, that one.

459. Um, I-I'm sorry you lost her.

460. May I ask how she passed?

461. She killed herself.

462. I-I... I'm so sorry.

463. Look, I...

464. I-I'm just glad you guys found us.

465. After you eat, you should call your families

466. and let 'em know you're okay.

467. There's a phone in the camp offices.

468. Wait, what about the outside pay phone?

469. That thing's deader than disco.

470. Hasn't worked in over a decade.

471. That dead pay phone rang last night.

472. Did you answer it?

473. Yeah.

474. I'm pretty sure it was him.

475. Him?

476. Like, "him" him?

477. Oh, my God.

478. What'd he say?

479. What'd he want?

480. - What? - It's ringing again?

481. Go call Dad. I'll meet you when I'm done.

482. You got something to say?

483. Then say it.

484. BOY It's cold here.

485. Who is this?

486. I don't remember.

487. What happened to you?

488. We don't know.

489. You don't remember anything?

490. There's three of us.

491. Okay. Where are you?

492. It's cold here.

493. It's cold where?

494. And it's dark here.

495. Tell me where you are.

496. We don't know.

497. My name is Finn.

498. Help us, Finn.

499. You have to try to remember something.

500. How did you die?

501. We don't remember.

502. We're scared, Finn.

503. I understand.

504. - Okay, what do you... - We're not supposed to be here.

505. What do you mean?

506. This isn't where we belong.

507. We weren't supposed to be here.

508. Something bad happened to you?

509. Help us. Please help us.

510. Tell me.

511. Tell me how I can help.

512. Find us, Finn. Please, Finn.

513. - Help us! Please come find us! - Come find us!

514. You have to come find us!

515. We don't want to be here!

516. Yeah, we're snowed in here, as well.

517. You guys just hold tight.

518. I'm sure they'll have you out of there in no time.

519. Love you, kid.

520. Bye.

521. REPORTER Welcome back to KMGH News.

522. The blizzard brought the entire area to a standstill

523. as heavy winds and drifts made all the roads impassable.

524. So much so that police

525. in several cities issued curfews

526. against the vehicles being on the road.

527. And the restrictions still stand

528. to those who violate the order...

529. Yeah, Jake, hey.

530. Listen, I need to call in that favor.

531. Has the company fleet finished plowing the property?

532. Excuse me.

533. Do you have any literature on the history of Alpine Lake?

534. Uh, we have a brochure.

535. Damn. Nothing more in-depth?

536. No, there is no published history of Camp Alpine Lake.

537. We are a youth camp, not a historical society.

538. Barbara, these are guests.

539. No, Kenneth,

540. this is the young lady who decided

541. to sneak into the boys' cabin last night.

542. So, what exactly can we help you with, sweetie?

543. Look, we just want to know about some kids

544. that may have been killed here in the past.

545. You don't need to hear anything about that.

546. We don't?

547. You don't.

548. Philippians 4:8 tells us

549. to think on things that are lovely.

550. Philippians 4:8 also says to think on things

551. that are true, just and honest, right, Barb?

552. Barbara.

553. We don't know the specifics.

554. This is not some haunted tour or ghost camp.

555. This is a Christian organization.

556. We don't discuss those kinds of things here.

557. But some fucked-up shit did happen here, right?

558. Have you always had such a filthy, vulgar mouth?

559. Have you always been such a sanctimonious twat?

560. Hey, hey, I-I think you two should leave now.

561. Let's go.

562. I'll pray for you.

563. Hello?

564. BOY 1 Who is this?

565. Hope.

566. Uh, Hope Adler.

567. Who is this?

568. I can't see you.

569. Where are you?

570. Alpine Lake.

571. It's a youth camp in the mountains.

572. It's so dark.

573. How did you find me?

574. I had these dreams.

575. Seven numbers.

576. No area code, so this call is local.

577. You're here in Colorado, right?

578. Where were the numbers?

579. The numbers were carved in ice.

580. The ice of a lake?

581. Yes. Yes.

582. It's so hard to remember things here.

583. It's so cold and dark.

584. Who is this?

585. Who are you?

586. We don't remember.

587. Hello?

588. Hello? Can you hear me?

589. We're not supposed to be here.

590. Ernesto!

591. Wake up!

592. You don't have to answer it, man.

593. Yes, I do.

594. You have one job: look after my sister.

595. I promise.

596. GRABBER Hello, Finney.

597. What do you want?

598. It took me a long time, but now I remember.

599. You're dead.

600. Oh, Finney.

601. You of all people know

602. that "dead" is just a word.

603. Tell me why you're here.

604. Why do you think I'm here?

605. 'Cause you knew we'd be trapped.

606. Gwen?

607. Gwen! Gwen!

608. Did you think that our story was over, Finney?

609. Did you really believe you could do what you did to me

610. and that would be the end of it?

611. I'm not afraid of you.

612. And why should you be?

613. You killed me.

614. You won.

615. Tell me what you want.

616. What I have always wanted with you.

617. What?

618. You want to scare me?

619. You know as well as I do

620. that fear is just the warm-up.

621. Gwen!

622. - Gwen! - Hey!

623. Hey! What are you doing?

624. It's 3:00 in the morning.

625. G-Gwen isn't in her dorm.

626. I don't know where she is.

627. Have you guessed what it is yet?

628. What it is that I want from you?

629. "Want" isn't even the right word.

630. It's more of an insatiable need.

631. So, have you got it yet?

632. No?

633. Fine. I'll just tell you, Finney.

634. What I want is this.

635. I want to hurt you

636. in ways that you can't even imagine.

637. You will pay for what you did to me.

638. You made me kill my brother,

639. the person on earth that I loved the most!

640. And then you killed me!

641. So now I am going to destroy you, Finney...

642. by destroying the thing you love most.

643. Vengeance is mine.

644. Gwen! Gwen!

645. Gwen!

646. Help me!

647. Help me!

648. Hey. Hey. Hey, Gwen.

649. Gwen, wake up. Gwen, wake up.

650. Gwen, are you awake?

651. Hey.

652. You awake?

653. You got the devil in you, child.

654. I've been on this earth a lot of years.

655. Seen a lot of things I can't explain.

656. But I've never heard of anyone who got dreams

657. like the ones you describe.

658. Where do you think they come from?

659. She's possessed.

660. My God, Mando, isn't it obvious?

661. I'm not possessed, you judgmental cunt wagon.

662. You think this is funny, Mustang?

663. You getting your horns clipped?

664. Yeah, I do.

665. Why don't you mind your own business?

666. Why don't you stop acting like

667. this is the first creepy shit you've seen up here?

668. Stop it.

669. Every single one of us

670. has seen or heard things around here.

671. - You especially, Barb. - Barbara.

672. Shut up, both of you.

673. Gwen, your dreams,

674. are you saying they tell you the future?

675. Sometimes.

676. Other times, it's the dead showing me things from the past.

677. What kind of things?

678. Like the smallest missing boy.

679. Felix?

680. He was running for his life, wearing a yellow down parka.

681. A-And the tallest kid, he wore a white parka.

682. Spike.

683. And scratched letters into the ice above him: "WBH."

684. I think his head was cut in half on the tree stump in the woods.

685. Lord in heaven.

686. The third boy wore a denim jacket.

687. He was all burnt up,

688. like he'd been cooked inside an oven.

689. - How'd you know that? - Mando.

690. No.

691. Gwen, ignore everyone else in the room.

692. It's just you and me right now.

693. The boy who was burnt up, how did you hear about that?

694. I just told you.

695. He came to me in my dream.

696. He wants me to find him.

697. They all do.

698. They can't rest until they're found.

699. - Whoa. You okay there, Mando? - Mando?

700. Burnt pieces of Calvin O'Keefe's denim jacket

701. were found by police.

702. Only they had that detail.

703. The police, the former camp owner and me.

704. What about what we saw in the kitchen?

705. That was no dream.

706. Have you heard of The Grabber?

707. Yeah. Who hasn't?

708. He killed a bunch of kids, and then...

709. got killed when one escaped.

710. Yeah, h-his name was Finney something.

711. Finney Blake.

712. Finn Blake?

713. Holy shit.

714. Gwen, when did all this start?

715. Weeks ago, when my mom called me from this camp in a dream.

716. She wanted me to come here.

717. Wh-What does this have to do with The Grabber?

718. It wasn't the devil attacking me in the kitchen.

719. It was him.

720. I could see him. He's here.

721. This is from the last year of camp before we closed down.

722. I-I was just the camp cook back then.

723. There's me, and there's your mom.

724. After Harlan, the owner, closed this place,

725. I kept coming up here anyway,

726. hiking the area, looking for those kids.

727. Then, when Harlan passed, I bought this place

728. in an estate sale for a song and reopened it.

729. I promised their parents I wouldn't stop looking

730. until I found them.

731. So, every day, weather permitting,

732. I'm still out walking the trails,

733. digging up every mound of dirt.

734. Not a single morning goes by that I don't pray for help

735. to find those boys.

736. I didn't know it was you he'd send.

737. But now that you're here, I'm not gonna pass up a chance

738. to put those kids to rest once and for all,

739. for-for-for them, for their families and for me.

740. No fucking way.

741. What is it with this family?

742. It's him. It's The Grabber.

743. - Are you sure? - I know him,

744. and I know his face.

745. That's Bill.

746. Wild Bill.

747. He worked maintenance.

748. We called him Wild Bill

749. because he wore this brown leather tool belt

750. loose around his waist like a gunslinger,

751. and he got long, wavy hair like Wild Bill Hickok.

752. Wild Bill Hickok.

753. "WBH."

754. This is where he started.

755. These boys were his first kills.

756. And Wild Bill became The Grabber.

757. Mando, when did weird things start happening around here?

758. Mm, not until a few years ago.

759. 1978?

760. Sounds about right.

761. That's the year I killed him.

762. And his spirit was set free to come back here.

763. Okay, but why would he do that?

764. Maybe his spirit draws power from the fear of his victims

765. because their spirits are not at rest.

766. How do we find these boys?

767. Their bodies are underwater, in a frozen lake, I think.

768. But didn't the police search the local lakes?

769. No. Why would they?

770. The lakes were frozen over when the boys went missing.

771. Lake Maru is where we take campers ice fishing,

772. so we store our equipment there.

773. Wild Bill used it for the kids' hockey games.

774. He was a good skater.

775. That's the only lake where he would have the tools

776. to make a hole in the ice and...

777. dump the bodies.

778. Okay, so i-if we find Felix, Cal and Spike,

779. allow them to rest, as you say,

780. that would get rid of The Grabber's power?

781. I think so. Yeah.

782. Okay, then.

783. At dawn, we head to Lake Maru and look for those boys.

784. Very funny, Mustang.

785. GRABBER Look what you made me do.

786. You made me kill my brother.

787. I know you're out there, Bill.

788. You can't have those boys forever.

789. My name's not Bill.

790. Wild Bill, Grabber.

791. Evil is evil.

792. GRABBER I want

793. to hurt you.

794. We are gonna get those boys back, Bill.

795. My name's not Bill!

796. The devil's lettuce is not allowed

797. in Camp Alpine property.

798. So fire me.

799. You've really been through it, haven't you, kid?

800. There's... there's a certain look in a young man's eye.

801. Kind of, um, quiet fury,

802. kind of...

803. deep rage when he's seen too much or done too much.

804. Get in many fights, Finn?

805. So?

806. So, here's what I know.

807. Behind that kind of anger is fear.

808. I'm not afraid of anything.

809. I know one thing you're afraid of.

810. Yeah? What's that?

811. That you can't protect your sister.

812. When I was on the streets,

813. I chose the wrong path.

814. Instead of facing my fears, I chose anger.

815. You're doing the same. I can see it.

816. Finn, son... this is what I do for a living.

817. I meet half a dozen kids like you every year.

818. Kids who are told this is who they have to be.

819. You are stronger than you think.

820. You were strong enough to kill The Grabber,

821. and you are strong enough to let what happened with him go.

822. I don't know how to do that.

823. You got to...

824. face your feelings.

825. You can't just hold them in and numb it all out.

826. You got to face it, and then you can let it go.

827. He wants to kill Gwen, to hurt me.

828. Oh, we're not gonna let that happen.

829. I'm taking this with me.

830. Come on, man. I need that.

831. I'm doing you a favor. This ain't even good shit.

832. We head to the lake in an hour, at sunup.

833. Be ready.

834. Me and Ernesto are gonna take shifts watching you, so...

835. if you have another nightmare, we'll wake you.

836. What if you can't?

837. Then fight back.

838. I mean, it's your dream, isn't it?

839. He makes it more than that.

840. What about those books you read about dreaming?

841. You know, there's got to be something you can try.

842. He's too strong.

843. I thought that once, too.

844. She's out.

845. Can I ask you a question?

846. Did you really talk to my brother down in that basement?

847. Yeah.

848. Yeah, I did.

849. Wh-What'd he say?

850. He said that your dad didn't come back from Vietnam

851. because he couldn't leave his buddies behind.

852. And that he wasn't gonna leave me behind.

853. Yeah?

854. Yeah, that... that was Robin all right.

855. Do you think he's still here?

856. I-I don't really know what's on the other side,

857. but there's something.

858. And I hope it's good.

859. And I hope he's there.

860. But if he isn't,

861. it's not me he's here looking after.

862. Wake me in four hours.

863. Wild Bill.

864. Nope, nope, no, no.

865. Y-You're staying in bed tonight.

866. You look like your mother.

867. Why is she in here?

868. A kindness, really.

869. To you, I mean. A kindness to you.

870. A kindness?

871. It's what I can manage.

872. My mom dreamed about Billy Showalter,

873. the paperboy.

874. He was the first kid taken in our area.

875. She figured out you took him, didn't she?

876. Isn't that obvious?

877. The kindness here

878. is me showing you the truth

879. before I do what I have to do.

880. Abandon all hope,

881. ye who enter here.

882. She didn't kill herself.

883. You killed her!

884. TERRENCE No. No, no, no, no.

885. No, no, no.

886. No, no.

887. No!

888. What did you do? What did you do?

889. What have I done? What have...

890. No, no!

891. This is different than a dream.

892. I conjured this from my hate

893. and from whatever memories hell let me keep.

894. Hell is different than you think.

895. They take the best parts of you, the human parts,

896. and leave only the worst bits, only the sins.

897. I am a bottomless pit of sin.

898. What do you think happens when you die in this realm?

899. I'd wake up.

900. Maybe.

901. Or perhaps...

902. you just die.

903. It's time to find out.

904. Hello?

905. FELIX You have to hide.

906. Gwen! Gwen!

907. Wake up!

908. Gwen!

909. Gwen, wake up!

910. Finn! Mustang!

911. Gwen.

912. What's wrong with her?

913. Gwen. Gwen!

914. MUSTANG Gwen!

915. ERNESTO Gwen!

916. - Gwen, wake up! - Gwen!

917. - Gwen? Gwen, wake up. - Gwen!

918. - Gwen, wake up. - Gwen!

919. - Gwen, wake up. - Gwen, wake up!

920. FINN Gwen, wake up!

921. - Gwen, wake up! - Gwen!

922. Gwen, wake up!

923. - Hey! - Gwen!

924. GRABBER Ah, naughty girl, Gwen.

925. Fuck you with a dinosaur dick.

926. Oh, salty tongue for a girl so young.

927. What are you doing?

928. GRABBER If someone tries to take

929. what power I do have away from me,

930. I have every right to defend myself.

931. Mando.

932. Tell the boys I miss them.

933. Mando!

934. Gwen, wake up!

935. - Gwen! - Gwen!

936. - Gwen! - Keep pressure on it.

937. Got it.

938. All right, help me flip her over.

939. Gwen.

940. FINN Gwen, wake up. Gwen?

941. - Gwen? - Okay.

942. Gwen, can you hear us?

943. Gwen, wake up.

944. Gwen, wake up! -Hey, keep pressure on the wound.

945. - Got it. - Gwen? Gwen, can you hear me?

946. - Is she breathing? - Gwen, come on.

947. - You've got to wake up, Gwen. - Come on. We need help.

948. Gwen, Gwen, if you can hear me, you have to fight back!

949. Gwen, fight back!

950. You didn't bring me here.

951. I brought myself.

952. I chose to come here, and I can leave when I want.

953. I understand now.

954. In a dream, I have power, too.

955. So?

956. What are you doing?

957. Isn't it obvious?

958. I'm fighting back, you grievous, festering ass wound.

959. See you later, Wild Bill.

960. Mando.

961. Mando!

962. Is he dead?

963. I found... I found Felix.

964. I found him. I found Felix.

965. Mustang?

966. - What time is it? - About 4:30.

967. What's happened? Are you all right?

968. Yeah, I'm fine.

969. Mando fell through the ice on Lake Maru.

970. Oh, no.

971. He's okay, but he found one of the missing boys in the water.

972. We're all gonna start looking for the other two at dawn.

973. We need your help.

974. Not with that demon child out there.

975. Her name is Gwen,

976. and she is the reason we got to Mando in time.

977. That demon child, she saved his life.

978. - I-I don't know, Mustang. We... - You know what?

979. You want to be all yellow-bellied and barn-sour,

980. lock yourself in this room until it's safe,

981. you go right ahead.

982. But that ain't no kind of true Christian behavior.

983. Sun's up at 7:00.

984. Gwen!

985. There you are. You okay?

986. Dad?

987. Hey, kids.

988. What are you doing here?

989. Heard you were snowed in, so I called in a favor.

990. Oh, thank God.

991. We can finally get you the hell out of here.

992. We have to stay.

993. - What? - What?

994. We have to stay.

995. Wh-What's going on?

996. Our work here isn't done.

997. He's after her, Dad.

998. He's... Who-who's "he?"

999. Him.

1000. I don't know...

1001. Gwen, um...

1002. - Is this more dream stuff? - Dad, don't.

1003. Okay, we're getting out of here.

1004. - Come on. Let's go. - I'll get my stuff.

1005. I'm not going anywhere.

1006. Gwen.

1007. He's going to kill you.

1008. Okay, and I can't stop him.

1009. But we have a chance.

1010. A chance to protect you, to keep you safe.

1011. You're gonna take care of me, Finn?

1012. You can't even take care of yourself.

1013. You are just like fucking Dad, putting your head in the sand

1014. and numbing yourself into oblivion.

1015. Whoa.

1016. Where did that come from?

1017. You've seen what he's been doing.

1018. You're just ignoring it,

1019. pretending you don't smell it on him, in his room,

1020. - in the backyard. - Narc.

1021. You can't narc about

1022. what everyone already knows, dingus.

1023. You're just smoking your fucking life away to pretend

1024. - none of this happened. - Shut up.

1025. Well, it happened, Finn.

1026. - Shut up. - And it happened to those kids.

1027. - Shut up. - And it's happening now.

1028. And you two just want to run and hide like you always do.

1029. - Shut up. - Bottle, joint.

1030. - Same fucking Friday night. - Shut up!

1031. - Anything to stop the pain. - Shut up!

1032. Anything to feel for a few hours like what happened to you

1033. down in that basement wasn't real!

1034. Shut up!

1035. All right, you don't think I don't know it was real?

1036. You think I don't fucking know it was real?

1037. It's all I ever think about.

1038. All right, you don't...

1039. you don't know what it was like down there.

1040. Nobody fucking knows.

1041. All right, I was...

1042. I was so fucking scared.

1043. God, I don't want to be angry anymore.

1044. I don't want to be afraid anymore.

1045. Hey.

1046. You're the bravest person I know.

1047. Okay.

1048. Gwen, look at me, please. I know you want to stay.

1049. I know, but if you really are in danger here,

1050. we need to leave right now.

1051. No.

1052. Sweetheart, I'm sorry, but I'm not asking.

1053. What are you gonna do, Dad? You gonna beat me?

1054. Take off your belt and whip me into the truck?

1055. Don't, don't...

1056. Go ahead and try. See if it works.

1057. Your mother, right there. There's your mother.

1058. You're just like your mother.

1059. Stubborn! You're so stubborn right to the end,

1060. even in the face of reality.

1061. The end? The end?

1062. Let me tell you about the end, Dad.

1063. Mom didn't kill herself.

1064. Okay. That's it.

1065. Let's all get in the goddamn truck.

1066. No, no, wait, Gwen.

1067. What are you talking about?

1068. Mom's dreams.

1069. She was dreaming about a missing kid, wasn't she?

1070. Talking about camp before she died.

1071. That's why you remembered the camp.

1072. Yeah, but... Yeah, so? So?

1073. She found him long before he took Finn,

1074. and he saw her, and he came to our house.

1075. No.

1076. Holy shit.

1077. He showed me that he killed her.

1078. Dad, what was the first thing you said when you saw Mom?

1079. What?

1080. You asked her,

1081. "What did you do? What did you do?"

1082. And you blamed yourself.

1083. You said, "What have I done?"

1084. We were asleep when it happened, when you found her.

1085. How else could I know what you said?

1086. It wasn't your fault, Dad.

1087. Oh, my God.

1088. And it wasn't hers.

1089. Oh, my God.

1090. The man who took Finn took her away from us

1091. because she was onto him.

1092. Because her dreams weren't just dreams.

1093. And neither are mine.

1094. All right, pass me the cable.

1095. Hey, Jesus.

1096. I'm not doing so well.

1097. I need help.

1098. Some real fucking help.

1099. We got to find those other two boys

1100. to take away his power.

1101. I'm scared he's gonna kill me.

1102. For real this time.

1103. Please don't let that happen.

1104. Get us out of here alive.

1105. Don't let him win.

1106. We're pretty much out of light.

1107. Maybe Spike and Cal are down too deep.

1108. I was thinking the same thing.

1109. We should've seen 'em by now.

1110. Hey, whoa, girl.

1111. You've done enough for today.

1112. MUSTANG Oh, no, Gwen.

1113. Gwen!
