1
00:00:10,774 --> 00:00:12,207
sammy!

2
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,107
take your brother outside
as fast as you can!

3
00:00:14,140 --> 00:00:15,207
go!

4
00:00:17,941 --> 00:00:20,140
dad's on a hunting trip.

5
00:00:20,173 --> 00:00:21,941
and he hasn't been home
in a few days.

6
00:00:24,774 --> 00:00:27,073
this is dad's book.

7
00:00:27,107 --> 00:00:28,941
I think he wants us to pick up
where he left off —

8
00:00:28,974 --> 00:00:32,641
saving people, hunting things,
the family business.

9
00:00:32,674 --> 00:00:35,707
I got to find dad. It's the only
think I can think about.

10
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:42,874
now I lay me down to sleep.

11
00:00:42,908 --> 00:00:45,073
I pray the lord my soul to keep.

12
00:00:45,107 --> 00:00:47,807
thy angels watch me
through the night

13
00:00:47,841 --> 00:00:50,574
and keep me safe
till morning light.

14
00:00:50,607 --> 00:00:52,008
amen.

15
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:53,541
amen.

16
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,040
night, monkeypuss.

17
00:01:04,073 --> 00:01:05,874
daddy?

18
00:01:05,908 --> 00:01:07,941
is mommy coming home?

19
00:01:11,541 --> 00:01:13,807
no, honey.

20
00:01:13,841 --> 00:01:16,908
she's spending the night at
the hospital with your sister.

21
00:01:16,941 --> 00:01:18,240
hey.

22
00:01:18,274 --> 00:01:20,407
you sleep tight now.

23
00:03:14,757 --> 00:03:17,957
yeah,
you probably missed something.

24
00:03:17,990 --> 00:03:20,124
dude, I ran lexisnexis,
local police reports,

25
00:03:20,157 --> 00:03:22,424
newspapers — I couldn't find
a single red flag.

26
00:03:22,457 --> 00:03:24,524
are you sure you got
the coordinates right?

27
00:03:24,558 --> 00:03:25,658
yeah, I double-checked.

28
00:03:25,690 --> 00:03:26,990
it's fitchburg, wisconsin.

29
00:03:27,024 --> 00:03:28,990
dad wouldn't have sent us
coordinates

30
00:03:29,024 --> 00:03:30,658
if it wasn't important,
sammy.

31
00:03:30,690 --> 00:03:31,990
well, I'm telling you,
I looked,

32
00:03:32,024 --> 00:03:34,024
and all I could find was a big,
steamy pile of nothing.

33
00:03:34,057 --> 00:03:35,357
if dad's sending us
hunting for something,

34
00:03:35,391 --> 00:03:36,424
I don't know what.

35
00:03:36,457 --> 00:03:37,924
well, maybe he's gonna
meet us there.

36
00:03:37,957 --> 00:03:41,124
yeah, 'cause he's been so easy
to find up to this point.

37
00:03:41,157 --> 00:03:43,324
you're a real smartass,
you know that?

38
00:03:43,357 --> 00:03:44,690
don't worry.

39
00:03:44,723 --> 00:03:47,090
I'm sure there's something
in fitchburg worth killing.

40
00:03:47,124 --> 00:03:49,324
yeah?
what makes you so sure?

41
00:03:49,357 --> 00:03:52,524
because I'm the oldest,
which means I'm always right.

42
00:03:52,558 --> 00:03:55,257
no, it doesn't.
it totally does.

43
00:04:11,890 --> 00:04:13,391
well, the waitress thinks

44
00:04:13,424 --> 00:04:16,558
that the local freemasons are up
to something sneaky,

45
00:04:16,591 --> 00:04:17,857
but other than that,

46
00:04:17,890 --> 00:04:20,624
nobody's heard
about anything weird going on.

47
00:04:20,658 --> 00:04:24,057
dean, you got the time?

48
00:04:24,090 --> 00:04:26,357
10 after 4:00.

49
00:04:26,391 --> 00:04:27,957
why?

50
00:04:27,990 --> 00:04:31,124
what's wrong
with this picture?

51
00:04:36,224 --> 00:04:39,457
school's out, isn't it?

52
00:04:39,491 --> 00:04:41,090
yeah.

53
00:04:43,924 --> 00:04:45,591
so where is everybody?

54
00:04:45,624 --> 00:04:49,357
this place should be crawling
with kids right now.

55
00:05:03,124 --> 00:05:05,757
it sure is quiet
out here.

56
00:05:05,790 --> 00:05:07,558
yeah, it's a shame.

57
00:05:07,591 --> 00:05:08,857
why is that?

58
00:05:08,890 --> 00:05:12,357
you know, kids getting sick.
it's a terrible thing.

59
00:05:12,391 --> 00:05:14,690
how many?

60
00:05:14,723 --> 00:05:19,224
just five or six,
but serious, hospital serious.

61
00:05:19,257 --> 00:05:21,957
a lot of parents are getting
pretty anxious.

62
00:05:21,990 --> 00:05:23,524
they think it's catching.

63
00:05:37,257 --> 00:05:39,624
dude, dude,
I am not using this I.d.

64
00:05:39,658 --> 00:05:40,790
why not?

65
00:05:40,823 --> 00:05:42,857
because it says
"bikini inspector" on it.

66
00:05:42,890 --> 00:05:44,823
don't worry.
she won't look that close.

67
00:05:44,857 --> 00:05:46,624
hell,
she won't even ask to see it.

68
00:05:46,658 --> 00:05:47,990
it's all about confidence,
sammy.

69
00:05:49,124 --> 00:05:50,924
hi.

70
00:05:50,957 --> 00:05:53,890
I'm dr. jerry kaplan,
center for disease control.

71
00:05:53,924 --> 00:05:56,024
can I see some I.d.?

72
00:05:58,957 --> 00:06:01,191
yeah, of course.

73
00:06:03,524 --> 00:06:06,424
now, could you direct me
to the pediatrics ward?

74
00:06:06,457 --> 00:06:09,924
okay, just go down that hall,
turn left, up the stairs.

75
00:06:09,957 --> 00:06:11,424
you'll see them.

76
00:06:11,457 --> 00:06:13,257
right.
thank you.

77
00:06:13,291 --> 00:06:15,391
see?
told you it would work.

78
00:06:15,424 --> 00:06:18,191
follow me.
it's upstairs.

79
00:06:52,457 --> 00:06:53,790
dean.

80
00:07:03,124 --> 00:07:05,157
thanks for seeing us,
dr. hydaker.

81
00:07:05,191 --> 00:07:07,057
oh, I'm glad you guys
are here.

82
00:07:07,090 --> 00:07:09,457
I was just about to call
the cdc myself.

83
00:07:09,491 --> 00:07:11,224
how did you find out
anyway?

84
00:07:11,257 --> 00:07:13,424
oh, some g.p. —
I forget his name —

85
00:07:13,457 --> 00:07:16,457
he called atlanta and must have
beat you to the punch.

86
00:07:16,491 --> 00:07:19,257
so you say you got six cases
so far?

87
00:07:19,291 --> 00:07:21,658
yeah, in five weeks.

88
00:07:21,690 --> 00:07:24,191
at first I thought
it was bacterial pneumonia,

89
00:07:24,224 --> 00:07:25,324
not that newsworthy.

90
00:07:25,357 --> 00:07:27,224
but now...

91
00:07:27,257 --> 00:07:29,391
now, what?

92
00:07:29,424 --> 00:07:31,757
the kids aren't responding
to antibiotics.

93
00:07:31,790 --> 00:07:34,057
their white-cell counts
keep going down.

94
00:07:34,090 --> 00:07:36,790
their immune systems
just aren't doing their job.

95
00:07:36,823 --> 00:07:39,624
it's like their bodies
are wearing out.

96
00:07:39,658 --> 00:07:41,224
excuse me, dr. hydaker.

97
00:07:41,257 --> 00:07:43,024
you ever see anything
like this before?

98
00:07:43,057 --> 00:07:44,191
never this severe.

99
00:07:44,224 --> 00:07:46,723
the way it spreads —
that's a new one for me.

100
00:07:46,757 --> 00:07:47,990
what do you mean?

101
00:07:48,024 --> 00:07:49,524
it works its way
through families,

102
00:07:49,558 --> 00:07:52,757
but only the children,
one sibling after another.

103
00:07:52,790 --> 00:07:56,257
you mind if we interview
a few of the kids?

104
00:07:56,291 --> 00:07:58,424
they're not conscious.

105
00:07:58,457 --> 00:08:00,591
none of them?

106
00:08:00,624 --> 00:08:02,424
no.

107
00:08:02,457 --> 00:08:05,624
can we talk
to the parents?

108
00:08:07,057 --> 00:08:08,990
if you think it'll help.

109
00:08:09,024 --> 00:08:12,591
yeah, yeah. Who was your most
recent admission?

110
00:08:12,624 --> 00:08:14,857
I should get back
to my girls.

111
00:08:14,890 --> 00:08:16,124
we understand that,

112
00:08:16,157 --> 00:08:18,857
and we really appreciate
you talking to us.

113
00:08:18,890 --> 00:08:20,924
now, you say
mary's the oldest?

114
00:08:20,957 --> 00:08:22,157
13.

115
00:08:22,191 --> 00:08:24,357
okay, and she came down
with it first, right?

116
00:08:24,391 --> 00:08:25,457
and then...

117
00:08:25,491 --> 00:08:27,624
bethany the next night.

118
00:08:27,658 --> 00:08:29,524
within 24 hours?

119
00:08:29,558 --> 00:08:32,291
I guess.

120
00:08:32,324 --> 00:08:35,391
look, I already went through
all this with the doctor.

121
00:08:35,424 --> 00:08:37,424
right. Just a few more
questions, if you don't mind.

122
00:08:37,457 --> 00:08:39,357
how do you think
they caught pneumonia?

123
00:08:39,391 --> 00:08:41,558
were they out in the cold,
anything like that?

124
00:08:41,591 --> 00:08:43,723
no, we think
it was an open window.

125
00:08:43,757 --> 00:08:46,057
both times?

126
00:08:46,090 --> 00:08:49,658
the first time,
I don't really remember,

127
00:08:49,690 --> 00:08:51,224
but the second time
for sure,

128
00:08:51,257 --> 00:08:54,257
and I know I closed it
before I put bethany to bed.

129
00:08:54,291 --> 00:08:55,790
so you think
she opened it?

130
00:08:55,823 --> 00:08:58,357
it's a second-story window,
no ledge.

131
00:08:58,391 --> 00:08:59,957
no one else could have.

132
00:09:04,524 --> 00:09:07,090
you know this might not be
anything supernatural.

133
00:09:07,124 --> 00:09:08,723
it might just be
pneumonia.

134
00:09:08,757 --> 00:09:10,990
maybe. Or maybe something
opened that window.

135
00:09:11,024 --> 00:09:13,890
I don't know, man. Look, dad
sent us down here for a reason.

136
00:09:13,924 --> 00:09:16,224
I think we might be barking up
the right tree.

137
00:09:16,257 --> 00:09:17,324
I'll tell you one thing.

138
00:09:17,357 --> 00:09:18,324
what?

139
00:09:18,357 --> 00:09:20,090
that guy
we just talked to —

140
00:09:20,124 --> 00:09:22,890
I'm betting it'll be a while
before he goes home.

141
00:09:32,524 --> 00:09:34,957
you got anything
over there?

142
00:09:34,990 --> 00:09:36,658
no, nothing.

143
00:09:36,690 --> 00:09:40,024
yeah, me neither.

144
00:09:50,658 --> 00:09:52,124
hey, dean.

145
00:09:52,157 --> 00:09:53,890
yeah?

146
00:09:55,391 --> 00:10:00,157
you were right.
it's not pneumonia.

147
00:10:03,924 --> 00:10:06,090
it's rotted.

148
00:10:10,024 --> 00:10:12,624
what the hell
leaves a handprint like that?

149
00:10:15,957 --> 00:10:17,690
cheetara.

150
00:10:17,723 --> 00:10:18,890
I am sorry to wake you,

151
00:10:18,924 --> 00:10:20,324
but jaga bids me
to bring you to him.

152
00:10:20,357 --> 00:10:22,357
all right.

153
00:10:23,391 --> 00:10:24,957
you know the drill, dean.

154
00:10:24,990 --> 00:10:27,291
if anyone calls,
you don't pick up.

155
00:10:27,324 --> 00:10:30,658
if it's me, I'll ring once
and then call back.

156
00:10:30,690 --> 00:10:32,024
you got that?

157
00:10:32,057 --> 00:10:35,357
mm-hmm. Don't answer the phone
unless it rings once first.

158
00:10:35,391 --> 00:10:37,990
come on, dude. Look alive.
this stuff's important.

159
00:10:38,024 --> 00:10:39,124
I know, it's just,

160
00:10:39,157 --> 00:10:41,591
we've done it
like a million times,

161
00:10:41,624 --> 00:10:43,424
and you know
I'm not stupid.

162
00:10:43,457 --> 00:10:45,591
I know you're not,
but it only takes one mistake.

163
00:10:45,624 --> 00:10:46,990
you got that?

164
00:10:47,024 --> 00:10:50,391
it's important that he join
jaga on the flight deck.

165
00:10:50,424 --> 00:10:52,990
all right,
if I'm not back sunday night...

166
00:10:53,024 --> 00:10:54,391
call pastor jim.

167
00:10:56,723 --> 00:10:59,291
lock the doors and windows,
close the shades,

168
00:10:59,324 --> 00:11:00,524
and most important —

169
00:11:00,558 --> 00:11:02,090
watch out for sammy.

170
00:11:02,124 --> 00:11:04,457
responsible for lion-o's
welfare, snarf is.

171
00:11:04,491 --> 00:11:05,723
I know.

172
00:11:05,757 --> 00:11:07,391
all right, if something
tries to bust in...

173
00:11:07,424 --> 00:11:10,391
shoot first,
ask questions later.

174
00:11:10,424 --> 00:11:12,524
that's my man.

175
00:11:16,491 --> 00:11:17,790
what's up, jaga?

176
00:11:17,823 --> 00:11:18,890
come closer.

177
00:11:23,723 --> 00:11:26,391
what's happening to her?

178
00:11:28,324 --> 00:11:30,191
what was that?

179
00:11:30,224 --> 00:11:32,790
I know why dad
sent us here.

180
00:11:37,524 --> 00:11:39,624
he's faced this thing
before.

181
00:11:41,690 --> 00:11:45,558
he wants us
to finish the job.

182
00:12:07,963 --> 00:12:09,664
so what the hell is
a shtriga?

183
00:12:09,697 --> 00:12:11,597
it's kind of like a witch,
I think.

184
00:12:11,631 --> 00:12:13,264
I don't know much
about them.

185
00:12:13,297 --> 00:12:15,264
well,
I've never heard of it,

186
00:12:15,297 --> 00:12:17,297
and it's not
in dad's journal.

187
00:12:17,330 --> 00:12:19,963
dad hunted one
in fort douglas, wisconsin,

188
00:12:19,997 --> 00:12:21,431
about 16, 17 years ago.

189
00:12:21,464 --> 00:12:24,297
you were there.
you don't remember?
no.

190
00:12:24,330 --> 00:12:26,798
I guess he caught wind that
the thing's in fitchburg now

191
00:12:26,831 --> 00:12:28,297
and kicked us
the coordinates.

192
00:12:28,330 --> 00:12:30,564
so wait, this...
shtriga.

193
00:12:30,597 --> 00:12:32,531
right, you think it's the same
one dad hunted before?

194
00:12:32,564 --> 00:12:35,063
yeah, maybe.

195
00:12:35,097 --> 00:12:37,097
if dad went after it,
why is it still breathing air?

196
00:12:37,130 --> 00:12:38,264
because it got away.

197
00:12:38,297 --> 00:12:39,397
got away?

198
00:12:39,431 --> 00:12:40,798
yeah, sammy, it happens.

199
00:12:40,831 --> 00:12:41,997
not very often.

200
00:12:42,030 --> 00:12:43,297
I don't know
what to tell you.

201
00:12:43,330 --> 00:12:45,164
maybe dad didn't have
his wheaties that morning.

202
00:12:45,197 --> 00:12:46,997
what else do you remember?

203
00:12:47,030 --> 00:12:49,230
nothing.
I was a kid, all right?

204
00:12:58,997 --> 00:13:00,631
king or two queens?

205
00:13:00,664 --> 00:13:02,230
two queens.

206
00:13:06,330 --> 00:13:07,898
yeah, I bet.

207
00:13:07,930 --> 00:13:09,097
what'd you say?

208
00:13:09,130 --> 00:13:11,063
nice car.

209
00:13:11,097 --> 00:13:13,230
hi. checking in?

210
00:13:13,264 --> 00:13:14,464
yeah.

211
00:13:14,497 --> 00:13:18,030
uh, do me a favor.
go get your brother some dinner.

212
00:13:18,063 --> 00:13:19,831
I'm helping a guest.

213
00:13:23,464 --> 00:13:25,631
two queens.

214
00:13:27,764 --> 00:13:29,063
funny kid.

215
00:13:29,097 --> 00:13:30,930
oh, yeah, he thinks so.

216
00:13:30,963 --> 00:13:32,697
will that be cash
or credit?

217
00:13:32,731 --> 00:13:34,330
do you take mastercard?
mm-hmm.

218
00:13:34,364 --> 00:13:35,364
perfect.

219
00:13:35,397 --> 00:13:36,464
there you go.

220
00:13:36,497 --> 00:13:38,898
thank you.

221
00:13:54,764 --> 00:13:57,364
when's dad gonna
get back?

222
00:13:57,397 --> 00:13:58,898
tomorrow.

223
00:13:58,930 --> 00:14:00,130
when?

224
00:14:00,164 --> 00:14:01,164
I don't know.

225
00:14:01,197 --> 00:14:03,030
he usually comes in late,
though.

226
00:14:03,063 --> 00:14:04,798
now, eat your dinner.

227
00:14:04,831 --> 00:14:07,063
I'm sick of "scabetti-os."

228
00:14:07,097 --> 00:14:09,697
well, you're the one
who wanted them.

229
00:14:09,731 --> 00:14:11,130
I want lucky charms.

230
00:14:11,164 --> 00:14:12,731
there's no more
lucky charms.

231
00:14:12,764 --> 00:14:14,030
I saw the box.

232
00:14:14,063 --> 00:14:15,330
okay, maybe there is,

233
00:14:15,364 --> 00:14:17,930
but there's only enough left
for one bowl,

234
00:14:17,963 --> 00:14:19,531
and I haven't had any yet.

235
00:14:43,297 --> 00:14:45,731
do you want the prize?

236
00:14:45,764 --> 00:14:48,164
sir?

237
00:14:49,963 --> 00:14:51,997
thanks.

238
00:15:02,631 --> 00:15:04,297
well, you were right.

239
00:15:04,330 --> 00:15:08,063
it wasn't very easy to find,
but you were right.

240
00:15:08,097 --> 00:15:10,564
a shtriga is
a kind of witch.

241
00:15:10,597 --> 00:15:11,831
they're albanian,

242
00:15:11,864 --> 00:15:14,798
but legends about them
date back to ancient rome.

243
00:15:14,831 --> 00:15:16,898
they feed off
of spiritus vitae.

244
00:15:16,930 --> 00:15:18,564
spirit what?

245
00:15:18,597 --> 00:15:19,864
vitae.
it's latin.

246
00:15:19,898 --> 00:15:21,963
it translates
to "breath of life,"

247
00:15:21,997 --> 00:15:25,297
kind of like your life force
or essence.

248
00:15:25,330 --> 00:15:27,297
didn't the doctor say the kids'
bodies were wearing out?

249
00:15:27,330 --> 00:15:29,264
it's a thought.

250
00:15:29,297 --> 00:15:30,731
you know,
she takes your vitality,

251
00:15:30,764 --> 00:15:32,898
maybe your immunity goes
to hell, pneumonia takes hold.

252
00:15:32,930 --> 00:15:36,130
anyway, shtrigas can feed off
anyone, but they prefer —

253
00:15:36,164 --> 00:15:37,898
children.

254
00:15:37,930 --> 00:15:39,164
yeah.

255
00:15:39,197 --> 00:15:41,264
probably because they have
stronger life force.

256
00:15:41,297 --> 00:15:44,898
and get this —
shtrigas are invulnerable

257
00:15:44,930 --> 00:15:47,497
to all weapons
devised by god and man.

258
00:15:47,531 --> 00:15:49,731
no, that's not right.

259
00:15:49,764 --> 00:15:53,230
she's vulnerable
when she feeds.

260
00:15:53,264 --> 00:15:54,264
what?

261
00:15:54,297 --> 00:15:56,230
if you catch her
when she's eating,

262
00:15:56,264 --> 00:15:58,798
you can blast her with
consecrated wrought irons,

263
00:15:58,831 --> 00:16:00,664
buckshots or rounds
I think.

264
00:16:00,697 --> 00:16:02,330
how do you know that?

265
00:16:02,364 --> 00:16:05,164
dad told me.
I remember.

266
00:16:05,197 --> 00:16:07,597
oh.

267
00:16:07,631 --> 00:16:11,664
so, uh, anything else
dad might have mentioned?

268
00:16:11,697 --> 00:16:13,997
no, that's it.

269
00:16:16,063 --> 00:16:18,164
what?

270
00:16:20,230 --> 00:16:22,197
nothing.

271
00:16:22,230 --> 00:16:26,030
okay, so, assuming we can kill
it when it eats,

272
00:16:26,063 --> 00:16:27,864
we've still got to find
the thing first,

273
00:16:27,898 --> 00:16:29,397
which ain't gonna be
a cakewalk.

274
00:16:29,431 --> 00:16:31,831
shtrigas take on
a human disguise when
they're not hunting.

275
00:16:31,864 --> 00:16:33,531
what kind of human disguise?

276
00:16:33,564 --> 00:16:35,364
historically,
something innocuous.

277
00:16:35,397 --> 00:16:38,197
it could be anything, but it's
usually a feeble old woman,

278
00:16:38,230 --> 00:16:41,230
which may be how the witches-as-
old-crones legend got started.

279
00:16:41,264 --> 00:16:42,330
hang on.

280
00:16:42,364 --> 00:16:43,431
what?

281
00:16:45,431 --> 00:16:46,664
check this out.

282
00:16:46,697 --> 00:16:48,864
I marked down all the addresses
of the victims.

283
00:16:48,898 --> 00:16:50,898
now, these are the houses
that have been hit so far,

284
00:16:50,930 --> 00:16:52,130
and dead center —

285
00:16:52,164 --> 00:16:53,130
the hospital.

286
00:16:53,164 --> 00:16:54,364
the hospital.

287
00:16:54,397 --> 00:16:57,531
when we were there,
I saw a patient, an old woman.

288
00:16:57,564 --> 00:16:58,963
an old person, huh?

289
00:16:58,997 --> 00:17:00,030
yeah.

290
00:17:00,063 --> 00:17:01,130
in the hospital?

291
00:17:01,164 --> 00:17:03,197
whew!
better call the coast guard.

292
00:17:03,230 --> 00:17:04,531
well, listen, smartass,

293
00:17:04,564 --> 00:17:07,197
she had an inverted cross
hanging on her wall.

294
00:17:22,264 --> 00:17:24,431
good night, dr. hydaker.

295
00:17:24,464 --> 00:17:25,997
see you tomorrow, betty.

296
00:17:26,030 --> 00:17:28,130
try to get some sleep,
aaron.

297
00:17:34,164 --> 00:17:35,564
come on.

298
00:18:36,963 --> 00:18:39,164
who the hell are you?

299
00:18:39,197 --> 00:18:40,464
who's there?

300
00:18:42,597 --> 00:18:44,731
you trying to steal my stuff?

301
00:18:44,764 --> 00:18:46,631
they're always
stealing around here.

302
00:18:46,664 --> 00:18:49,464
no, ma'am, we're maintenance.
we're sorry.

303
00:18:49,497 --> 00:18:51,097
we thought
you were sleeping.

304
00:18:51,130 --> 00:18:52,831
ah, nonsense.

305
00:18:52,864 --> 00:18:55,164
I was sleeping
with my peepers open.

306
00:18:58,631 --> 00:19:01,597
and fix that crucifix,
would you?

307
00:19:01,631 --> 00:19:05,097
I've asked four damn times
already.

308
00:20:02,487 --> 00:20:05,787
"I was sleeping
with my peepers open."

309
00:20:05,821 --> 00:20:09,121
I almost smoked that old gal,
I swear.

310
00:20:09,154 --> 00:20:10,554
it's not funny.

311
00:20:11,581 --> 00:20:13,814
oh, man, you should have seen
your face, dean.

312
00:20:13,847 --> 00:20:16,447
oh, yeah, laugh it on, man.
we're back to square one.

313
00:20:19,014 --> 00:20:21,713
hang on.

314
00:20:30,347 --> 00:20:32,980
hey, what's wrong?

315
00:20:33,014 --> 00:20:35,914
my brother's sick.

316
00:20:35,947 --> 00:20:37,081
the little guy?

317
00:20:37,114 --> 00:20:38,980
pneumonia.

318
00:20:39,014 --> 00:20:41,448
he's in the hospital.

319
00:20:42,847 --> 00:20:44,580
it's my fault.

320
00:20:44,613 --> 00:20:46,281
no, come on. how?

321
00:20:47,448 --> 00:20:50,047
I should have made sure
the window was latched.

322
00:20:50,081 --> 00:20:52,281
he wouldn't have
gotten pneumonia

323
00:20:52,314 --> 00:20:53,947
if the window was latched.

324
00:20:57,780 --> 00:20:59,947
listen to me.

325
00:20:59,980 --> 00:21:04,414
I can promise you that
this is not your fault, okay?

326
00:21:04,448 --> 00:21:06,880
it's my job
to look after him.

327
00:21:13,713 --> 00:21:15,114
michael.

328
00:21:17,548 --> 00:21:20,114
turn on the "no vacancy" sign
while I'm gone.

329
00:21:20,147 --> 00:21:21,880
I've got denise covering
room service,

330
00:21:21,914 --> 00:21:22,980
so don't bother
with the rooms.

331
00:21:23,014 --> 00:21:24,347
I'm going with you.
not now, michael.

332
00:21:24,381 --> 00:21:25,481
but I got to see asher.

333
00:21:25,514 --> 00:21:26,947
hey, michael.

334
00:21:26,980 --> 00:21:28,314
hey.

335
00:21:28,347 --> 00:21:31,114
I know how you feel.
I'm a big brother, too.

336
00:21:31,147 --> 00:21:33,847
but you got to go easy
on your mom right now, okay?

337
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:35,047
aw, damn it.

338
00:21:35,081 --> 00:21:36,347
I got it.

339
00:21:36,381 --> 00:21:39,114
thanks.
you're in
no condition to drive.

340
00:21:39,147 --> 00:21:41,880
why don't you let me give you
a lift to the hospital?

341
00:21:41,914 --> 00:21:43,214
no, no,
I couldn't possibly —

342
00:21:43,247 --> 00:21:46,847
no, no trouble.
I insist.

343
00:21:52,980 --> 00:21:54,780
be good.

344
00:22:01,448 --> 00:22:03,181
we're gonna
kill this thing.

345
00:22:03,214 --> 00:22:05,281
I want it dead.
you hear me?

346
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:24,914
hey.

347
00:22:24,947 --> 00:22:26,347
hey, how's the kid?

348
00:22:26,381 --> 00:22:28,814
he's not good.
where you at?

349
00:22:28,847 --> 00:22:30,381
I'm at the library,

350
00:22:30,414 --> 00:22:32,947
trying to find out as much
as I can about this shtriga.

351
00:22:32,980 --> 00:22:34,613
yeah, what do you got?

352
00:22:34,647 --> 00:22:35,847
well, bad news.

353
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,081
I started
with fort douglas

354
00:22:38,114 --> 00:22:40,281
around the time
you said dad was there.

355
00:22:40,314 --> 00:22:41,548
and?

356
00:22:41,580 --> 00:22:42,713
same deal.

357
00:22:42,747 --> 00:22:46,114
before that,
there was ogdenville.

358
00:22:46,147 --> 00:22:50,014
before that, north haverbrook
and brockway.

359
00:22:50,047 --> 00:22:53,747
every 15 to 20 years,
it hits a new town.

360
00:22:53,780 --> 00:22:57,214
dean, this thing is just getting
started in fitchburg.

361
00:22:57,247 --> 00:23:00,147
in all these other places,
it goes on for months,

362
00:23:00,181 --> 00:23:03,281
dozens of kids, before
the shtriga finally moves on.

363
00:23:03,314 --> 00:23:06,880
kids just languish in comas,
and then they die.

364
00:23:06,914 --> 00:23:09,081
how far back
does this thing go?

365
00:23:09,114 --> 00:23:10,247
I don't know.

366
00:23:10,281 --> 00:23:12,947
the earliest mention I could
find is this place

367
00:23:12,980 --> 00:23:15,448
called black river falls
back in the 1890s.

368
00:23:15,481 --> 00:23:18,281
talk about a horror show.

369
00:23:20,014 --> 00:23:22,281
whoa.

370
00:23:22,314 --> 00:23:23,314
sam?

371
00:23:23,347 --> 00:23:24,780
hold on.

372
00:23:24,814 --> 00:23:27,147
I'm looking at a photograph
right now

373
00:23:27,181 --> 00:23:30,381
of a bunch of doctors
standing around a kid's bed.

374
00:23:30,414 --> 00:23:33,281
one of the doctors
is hydaker.

375
00:23:33,314 --> 00:23:34,847
and?

376
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:38,114
and this picture was taken
in 1893.

377
00:23:38,147 --> 00:23:40,314
you sure?

378
00:23:40,347 --> 00:23:41,914
yeah.

379
00:23:41,947 --> 00:23:44,414
yeah, absolutely.

380
00:24:02,914 --> 00:24:07,114
don't worry.
your son's in good hands.

381
00:24:07,147 --> 00:24:10,381
I'm gonna take care
of him.

382
00:24:10,414 --> 00:24:13,347
so what's the cdc come up
with so far?

383
00:24:13,381 --> 00:24:15,880
we're still working
on a few theories.

384
00:24:15,914 --> 00:24:18,481
you'll know something as soon
as we do.

385
00:24:18,514 --> 00:24:21,947
well, nothing's more important
to me than these kids.

386
00:24:21,980 --> 00:24:22,947
hmm.

387
00:24:22,980 --> 00:24:25,314
just let me know
if I can help.

388
00:24:25,347 --> 00:24:28,548
I'll do that.

389
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,314
we should have
thought of this before.

390
00:24:33,347 --> 00:24:35,780
doctor's a perfect disguise.
you're trusted.

391
00:24:35,814 --> 00:24:37,680
you can control
the whole thing.

392
00:24:37,713 --> 00:24:41,713
huh.
that son of a bitch.

393
00:24:41,747 --> 00:24:43,780
I'm surprised you didn't draw
on him right there.

394
00:24:43,814 --> 00:24:46,780
yeah, well...

395
00:24:46,814 --> 00:24:48,780
first of all,

396
00:24:48,814 --> 00:24:50,747
I'm not gonna open fire
in a freakin' pediatrics ward.

397
00:24:50,780 --> 00:24:52,448
good call.

398
00:24:52,481 --> 00:24:54,047
second, it wouldn't have done
any good

399
00:24:54,081 --> 00:24:55,448
because the bastard's
bulletproof

400
00:24:55,481 --> 00:24:57,047
unless he's chowing down
on something.

401
00:24:57,081 --> 00:24:58,281
and third,
I wasn't packing,

402
00:24:58,314 --> 00:24:59,847
which is probably
a really good thing

403
00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:01,980
'cause I probably would have
just burned a clip in him

404
00:25:02,014 --> 00:25:03,414
off of principle alone.

405
00:25:03,448 --> 00:25:06,014
you're getting wise
in your old age, dean.

406
00:25:06,047 --> 00:25:07,247
you're damn right.

407
00:25:07,281 --> 00:25:09,880
'cause now I know
how we're gonna get it.

408
00:25:09,914 --> 00:25:11,914
what do you mean?

409
00:25:11,947 --> 00:25:13,780
the shtriga — it works
through siblings, right?

410
00:25:13,814 --> 00:25:14,914
right.

411
00:25:14,947 --> 00:25:16,314
well, last night...

412
00:25:16,347 --> 00:25:17,548
it went after asher.

413
00:25:17,580 --> 00:25:19,481
tonight it's probably gonna come
after michael.

414
00:25:19,514 --> 00:25:20,647
then we got to get him
out of here.

415
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,947
no. no, that would blow
the whole deal.

416
00:25:22,980 --> 00:25:24,448
what?
yeah.

417
00:25:24,481 --> 00:25:26,880
then you want to use
the kid as bait?

418
00:25:27,947 --> 00:25:30,713
are you nuts? no. forget it.
that's out of the question.

419
00:25:30,747 --> 00:25:33,247
sam, it's the only way —
if this thing disappears,

420
00:25:33,281 --> 00:25:35,580
it could be years
before we get another chance.

421
00:25:35,613 --> 00:25:37,347
michael's a kid,
and I'm not gonna dangle him

422
00:25:37,381 --> 00:25:39,114
in front of that thing
like a worm on a hook.

423
00:25:39,147 --> 00:25:41,114
dad did not send me here
to walk away.

424
00:25:41,147 --> 00:25:43,314
send you here?
he didn't send you here.

425
00:25:43,347 --> 00:25:45,548
he sent us here.
this isn't about you, sam.

426
00:25:45,580 --> 00:25:47,381
I'm the one that screwed up.
it's my fault.

427
00:25:47,414 --> 00:25:49,481
there's no telling
how many kids have gotten hurt

428
00:25:49,514 --> 00:25:50,613
because of me.

429
00:25:50,647 --> 00:25:54,214
what are you saying, dean?
how is it your fault?

430
00:26:00,014 --> 00:26:01,448
dean.

431
00:26:01,481 --> 00:26:04,713
you've been hiding something
from the get-go.

432
00:26:04,747 --> 00:26:07,381
since when does dad bail
on a hunt?

433
00:26:07,414 --> 00:26:10,448
since when does
he let something get away?

434
00:26:10,481 --> 00:26:15,680
now, talk to me, man.
tell me what's going on.

435
00:26:25,247 --> 00:26:28,014
fort douglas, wisconsin.

436
00:26:28,047 --> 00:26:31,047
it was the third night
in this crap room,

437
00:26:31,081 --> 00:26:33,680
and I was climbing the walls,
man.

438
00:26:33,713 --> 00:26:35,514
I needed to get some air.

439
00:26:35,548 --> 00:26:37,147
if ever I saw one.

440
00:26:37,181 --> 00:26:38,780
command performance.

441
00:27:05,713 --> 00:27:07,047
hey, kid.

442
00:27:08,214 --> 00:27:10,214
we're closing up.

443
00:28:13,613 --> 00:28:14,914
get out of the way!

444
00:28:25,247 --> 00:28:29,481
sammy. Sammy.
sammy.

445
00:28:29,514 --> 00:28:30,780
you okay?

446
00:28:30,814 --> 00:28:33,548
dad, what's going on?

447
00:28:33,580 --> 00:28:35,414
are you all right?

448
00:28:39,014 --> 00:28:42,414
what happened?

449
00:28:42,448 --> 00:28:44,481
I-I just went out.

450
00:28:44,514 --> 00:28:46,181
what?

451
00:28:46,214 --> 00:28:48,847
j-just for a second.
I'm sorry.

452
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,247
I told you not to leave
this room.

453
00:28:51,281 --> 00:28:54,247
I told you not to let him
out of your sight.

454
00:29:06,448 --> 00:29:10,713
dad just grabbed us and booked,

455
00:29:10,747 --> 00:29:16,281
dropped us off at pastor jim's
about three hours away.

456
00:29:16,314 --> 00:29:19,081
by the time he got back
to fort douglas,

457
00:29:19,114 --> 00:29:20,980
the shtriga had disappeared.

458
00:29:21,014 --> 00:29:23,247
it was just gone.

459
00:29:26,281 --> 00:29:30,448
it never resurfaced until now.

460
00:29:30,481 --> 00:29:33,448
dad never spoke about it again.

461
00:29:33,481 --> 00:29:36,481
I didn't ask.

462
00:29:36,514 --> 00:29:39,014
but he, uh...

463
00:29:41,181 --> 00:29:46,281
he looked at me different,
you know, which was worse.

464
00:29:46,314 --> 00:29:47,780
not that I blame him.

465
00:29:47,814 --> 00:29:50,680
he gave me an order,
and I didn't listen,

466
00:29:50,713 --> 00:29:52,847
and I almost
got you killed.

467
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:54,281
you were just a kid.

468
00:29:54,314 --> 00:29:56,147
don't.

469
00:29:56,181 --> 00:29:58,281
don't.

470
00:29:58,314 --> 00:30:02,814
dad knew this was
unfinished business for me.

471
00:30:02,847 --> 00:30:06,047
he sent me here
to finish it.

472
00:30:08,114 --> 00:30:11,914
but using michael —
I don't know, dean.

473
00:30:11,947 --> 00:30:15,147
I mean, how about one of us
hides under the cover?

474
00:30:15,181 --> 00:30:18,047
you know,
we'll be the bait.

475
00:30:18,081 --> 00:30:21,047
no, that won't work.

476
00:30:21,081 --> 00:30:24,081
it's got to get close enough
to feed. It'll see us.

477
00:30:26,647 --> 00:30:29,147
believe me, I don't like it,
but it's got to be the kid.

478
00:30:34,747 --> 00:30:36,713
you're crazy!

479
00:30:36,747 --> 00:30:39,347
just go away
or I'm calling the cops.

480
00:30:39,381 --> 00:30:41,414
hang on a second.
just listen to me.

481
00:30:41,448 --> 00:30:43,914
you have to believe me,
okay?

482
00:30:43,947 --> 00:30:45,514
this thing came through
the window

483
00:30:45,548 --> 00:30:46,713
and attacked your brother.

484
00:30:49,281 --> 00:30:50,347
I've seen it.

485
00:30:50,381 --> 00:30:51,880
I know what it looks like

486
00:30:51,914 --> 00:30:54,381
'cause it attacked
my brother once, too.

487
00:31:01,613 --> 00:31:03,548
this thing —

488
00:31:03,580 --> 00:31:06,214
is it, like...

489
00:31:06,247 --> 00:31:10,780
it has this long,
black robe?

490
00:31:10,814 --> 00:31:13,047
you saw it last night,
didn't you?

491
00:31:13,081 --> 00:31:17,047
I thought I was having
a nightmare.

492
00:31:19,114 --> 00:31:23,081
I'd give anything
not to tell you this,

493
00:31:23,114 --> 00:31:25,181
but sometimes nightmares
are real.

494
00:31:25,214 --> 00:31:28,314
so why are you
telling me?

495
00:31:28,347 --> 00:31:30,114
because we need your help.

496
00:31:30,147 --> 00:31:31,514
my help?

497
00:31:31,548 --> 00:31:36,281
we can kill it, me and him.
it's what we do.

498
00:31:36,314 --> 00:31:38,347
but we can't do it
without you.

499
00:31:38,381 --> 00:31:41,580
what? no.

500
00:31:41,613 --> 00:31:43,314
michael, listen to me.

501
00:31:43,347 --> 00:31:45,081
this thing hurt asher,

502
00:31:45,114 --> 00:31:48,314
and it's gonna keep hurting kids
unless we stop it.

503
00:31:48,347 --> 00:31:49,780
do you understand me?

504
00:31:52,481 --> 00:31:55,414
well, that went crappy.
now what?

505
00:31:55,448 --> 00:31:56,613
what did you expect?

506
00:31:56,647 --> 00:31:59,214
you can't ask an adult
to do something like that,

507
00:31:59,247 --> 00:32:00,947
much less a kid.

508
00:32:09,181 --> 00:32:12,014
if you kill it,
will asher get better?

509
00:32:16,814 --> 00:32:20,347
honestly, we don't know.

510
00:32:23,381 --> 00:32:26,281
you said
you're a big brother.

511
00:32:26,314 --> 00:32:28,514
yeah.

512
00:32:28,548 --> 00:32:30,381
you'd take care
of your little brother?

513
00:32:30,414 --> 00:32:34,247
you'd do anything
for him?

514
00:32:34,281 --> 00:32:36,514
yeah, I would.

515
00:32:38,414 --> 00:32:42,214
me too.

516
00:32:42,247 --> 00:32:43,613
I'll help.

517
00:33:04,750 --> 00:33:06,384
this camera has night vision
on it,

518
00:33:06,418 --> 00:33:08,418
so we'll be able to see you
as clear as day.

519
00:33:08,450 --> 00:33:09,650
are we good?

520
00:33:09,684 --> 00:33:10,817
hair to the right.

521
00:33:10,850 --> 00:33:12,750
there, there.

522
00:33:12,784 --> 00:33:16,051
what do I do?

523
00:33:16,084 --> 00:33:19,684
just stay under
the covers.

524
00:33:19,717 --> 00:33:23,217
and if it shows up?

525
00:33:23,251 --> 00:33:25,117
well, we'll be right
in the next room.

526
00:33:25,151 --> 00:33:27,717
we're gonna come in with guns,
so as soon as we do,

527
00:33:27,750 --> 00:33:30,084
you roll off this bed
and you crawl under it.

528
00:33:32,151 --> 00:33:33,884
what if you shoot me?

529
00:33:33,917 --> 00:33:36,483
we won't shoot you.
we're good shots.

530
00:33:38,117 --> 00:33:41,351
we're not gonna fire
until you're clear, okay?

531
00:33:41,384 --> 00:33:43,850
have you heard
a gunshot before?

532
00:33:43,884 --> 00:33:45,517
like in the movies?

533
00:33:45,550 --> 00:33:49,117
it's gonna be a lot louder
than in the movies.

534
00:33:49,151 --> 00:33:52,750
so I want you to stay
under the bed, cover your ears,

535
00:33:52,784 --> 00:33:56,017
and do not come out until
we say so, you understand?

536
00:33:58,784 --> 00:34:01,617
michael, are you sure
you want to do this?

537
00:34:01,650 --> 00:34:03,384
you don't have to.
it's okay. I won't be mad.

538
00:34:03,418 --> 00:34:05,418
no, I'm okay.

539
00:34:05,450 --> 00:34:08,251
just don't shoot me.

540
00:34:08,284 --> 00:34:11,517
we're not gonna let anything
happen to you.

541
00:34:11,550 --> 00:34:12,850
I promise.

542
00:34:25,650 --> 00:34:27,017
what time is it?

543
00:34:29,117 --> 00:34:30,284
3:00.

544
00:34:32,318 --> 00:34:34,151
you sure these iron rounds
are gonna work?

545
00:34:36,117 --> 00:34:37,550
consecrated iron rounds.

546
00:34:37,583 --> 00:34:41,217
and yeah,
it's what dad used last time.

547
00:34:41,251 --> 00:34:43,951
hey, dean, I'm sorry.

548
00:34:46,784 --> 00:34:47,850
for what?

549
00:34:50,483 --> 00:34:52,384
you know...

550
00:34:52,418 --> 00:34:55,517
I've really given you
a lot of crap

551
00:34:55,550 --> 00:34:59,084
for always following
dad's orders,

552
00:34:59,117 --> 00:35:02,583
but I know why you do it.

553
00:35:02,617 --> 00:35:04,617
oh, god.
kill me now.

554
00:35:09,884 --> 00:35:10,951
wait, look.

555
00:35:45,750 --> 00:35:47,384
now?
not yet.

556
00:36:21,850 --> 00:36:23,384
michael, down!

557
00:36:33,550 --> 00:36:35,251
mike, you all right?
yeah.

558
00:36:35,284 --> 00:36:37,984
just sit tight.

559
00:37:00,450 --> 00:37:01,483
dean!

560
00:37:31,917 --> 00:37:33,817
hey!

561
00:37:36,917 --> 00:37:38,717
you okay, little brother?

562
00:38:11,284 --> 00:38:13,217
it's okay, michael.
you can come on out.

563
00:38:45,757 --> 00:38:47,824
hey, joanna,
how's asher doing?

564
00:38:47,857 --> 00:38:49,891
have you seen michael?
mom! mom!

565
00:38:49,924 --> 00:38:51,524
hey!

566
00:38:53,024 --> 00:38:54,223
how's ash?

567
00:38:54,257 --> 00:38:56,357
I've got some good news.
your brother's gonna be fine.

568
00:38:56,390 --> 00:38:57,557
really?

569
00:38:57,590 --> 00:38:59,557
yeah, really.
no one can explain it.

570
00:38:59,590 --> 00:39:02,424
it's, uh, it's a miracle.

571
00:39:02,457 --> 00:39:04,590
they're gonna keep him
in overnight for observation,

572
00:39:04,624 --> 00:39:06,091
but after that,
he's coming home.

573
00:39:06,124 --> 00:39:07,158
that's great.

574
00:39:07,190 --> 00:39:09,691
how are all
the other kids doing?

575
00:39:09,724 --> 00:39:10,924
good, real good.

576
00:39:10,957 --> 00:39:13,024
a bunch of them should be
checking out in a few days.

577
00:39:13,058 --> 00:39:15,557
dr. travis says the ward's
gonna be like a ghost town.

578
00:39:15,590 --> 00:39:18,824
dr. travis?
what about dr. hydaker?

579
00:39:18,857 --> 00:39:19,924
oh, he wasn't in today.

580
00:39:19,957 --> 00:39:21,657
he must have been sick
or something.

581
00:39:21,691 --> 00:39:24,223
yeah, yeah, must have.

582
00:39:24,257 --> 00:39:28,390
so did anything happen
while I was gone?

583
00:39:28,424 --> 00:39:30,390
no, same old stuff.

584
00:39:30,424 --> 00:39:32,190
okay.
you can go see ash.

585
00:39:32,223 --> 00:39:33,724
now?
only if you want to.

586
00:39:38,323 --> 00:39:39,590
I better get going

587
00:39:39,624 --> 00:39:41,857
before he hot-wires the car
and drives himself.

588
00:39:48,390 --> 00:39:52,091
it's too bad.

589
00:39:52,124 --> 00:39:54,724
no, they'll be fine.

590
00:39:54,757 --> 00:39:56,124
that's not what I meant.

591
00:39:56,158 --> 00:39:57,490
I meant michael.

592
00:39:57,524 --> 00:40:00,357
he'll always know there are
things out there in the dark.

593
00:40:00,390 --> 00:40:02,457
he'll never be the same,
you know?

594
00:40:06,657 --> 00:40:10,323
sometimes I wish that...

595
00:40:11,524 --> 00:40:13,624
what?

596
00:40:13,657 --> 00:40:16,691
I wish I could have
that kind of innocence.

597
00:40:30,190 --> 00:40:34,024
if it means anything,
sometimes I wish you could, too.
