[background talking]
- Sorry.
Sorry.
I got caught up downstairs.
There was a jumper on the boarding bridge.
- I heard.
- I don't know what he was thinking.
Hardly high enough.
- Mm.
- I'm sorry I'm late.
I know you have your whole routine.
- Stop apologizing.
It's fine.
- Oh, the shuttle isn't running, by the way.
- That's OK.
I'll take the bus.
- The bus?
- It's only three transfers.
- That's disgusting.
- Bye.
- See you.
Be safe!
- Mm-hmm.
- You told me that emotional support animals
can stay in the cabin.
- Yes, they can, but they have to be able to fit in the crate.
- Yes, he does when he lies flat.
- But he's not--
- I need you to get somebody, because I--
I'm not getting on the plane without him.
[ominous music]
[ding]
[music stops]
[ding]
- Oh, hey.
I thought you'd be out.
- No, I took a nap.
I actually slept really well.
- That's great.
Are you still seeing Dr. Chen today?
- No, I don't think so.
I don't need to see him anymore.
- Are you sure?
- Yeah.
I feel really good today.
- I'm so happy to hear that.
[clunking]
Noah?
[mysterious music]
[phone ringing]
[vibrating]
[ominous music]
[sirens]
[panicked shouting]
[ominous music]
- Things have been a lot better the past few weeks.
I left Security, finally.
I'm in Parking Enforcement now, and it's been all right.
Only two people told me to go fuck myself today,
so I'll take what I can get.
To be honest, it's not that bad.
I like the constant moving around.
I like that I'm always doing things now.
I had too much time to just sit and think before.
It still comes back, though, and I can feel it when it's close.
I say to myself, here it comes.
It's in flashes and waves.
The last thing she said to me, the hours of searching deep
into the night, (CRYING) her jacket floating
at the bottom of the bridge.
[sigh] I still struggle with it, but keeping busy
has made it a lot easier.
- Thank you, Aaron.
That brings us to the end of our session today.
For those of you who have shared,
thank you for your trust and your honesty.
And for those who have yet to share, thank you for listening,
and thank you for being here.
- So I don't know why we're still here and not moving yet,
especially somewhere where we're doing group therapy.
- Excuse me.
Uh, uh, excuse me.
I, uh, don't believe we've met.
- Oh, it's my first time.
I-- I got time off work for bereavement.
- Fuck, yeah!
That's great.
The-- the time off, I mean.
Not the bereavement, obviously.
I would kill for time off.
Well, not-- not, like, kill, kill.
I-- I'm Brian.
- Miranda.
- So, uh, you didn't introduce yourself in there.
Why not?
- [sigh] I guess I thought Sam would introduce me.
- Like, point at you?
Put you on the spot?
- Yeah.
- In a support group?
- Yeah. - Nah.
[laughs] I don't think he'd do that.
[laughs]
- Well, I gotta--
- Your eyes are green.
Oh, I'm nearsighted, so these details are usually
a mystery to me at first.
You looked like a blurry blob thing in there.
- Why don't you wear glasses?
- Oh, I don't want to hide the moneymaker.
[laughs]
- So you really couldn't see me in there?
- No.
- Well, can you see me now?
- Oh, yeah, I can see you.
- How about now?
- Yep.
- How about now?
- Uh, yeah, I can see you.
- How about--
- Uh, yeah, I can--
[door clunking]
Uh-huh.
Very nice.
Very funny!
- --still got control.
Spiritual healing is invaluable for your emotional health.
Modern solutions are far too predictable.
- Is this herbal? - Yeah.
- Because I can't-- - Can't do caffeine.
I know.
It's herbal.
So why the urgent phone call?
- He's back.
- Who?
- Damien.
- Oh, boy.
- When I came home this evening--
- Hold on--
- There was a rose at the foot of my door.
- Stop. - It's him.
I know it's him.
That piece of shit found out where I live.
He knows I'm alone now.
I can't believe this is fucking happening again.
Fuck! - Miranda.
- (SHARPLY) What?
(QUIETLY) Sorry.
- You don't have to apologize.
He is a piece of shit.
- I want him charged.
- I can't really--
- I mean, he broke the restraining order.
- A rose is not evidence.
- Can't you look into the footage on my building's
security cameras?
You told me that I could call you any time I had a problem--
- I don't think I said any time.
Miranda, you have not heard from Damien in years.
- But Noah--
- What happened to Noah was a tragedy.
And you owe it to yourself to use this time
to take care of you and to heal, to do more yoga
or whatever it is you're doing.
- Group therapy?
- Exactly.
Same thing.
- He gave me a rose on our first date.
[tense music]
Is there any way that you could please look
into the security cameras?
Or-- or maybe just find out if he's been in the area.
- I'll see what I can do.
- Thank you.
- Now, can you try to take it easy?
Just relax, you know?
Watch some reality TV.
Turn your brain off for a while.
You've got to focus on you right now.
- Don't worry.
I don't plan on dating for a long time.
- Well, that's-- that's not what I meant.
Miranda, there are good people in the world.
- I'm sorry that the guest room isn't set up yet.
- No, this is great.
I mean, I can't believe you own a house now.
You're, like, living the dream.
- Yeah, a bungalow two hours from work
was definitely our first choice.
- Well, you know, it beats a roach-infested basement.
- Hey, we had some good times in that basement.
You know, you were the only roommate that stuck it out
with me for all four semesters.
- Mm.
Well, the rich kids have no resilience.
- You were the best roommate.
I had never seen a 100-pound girl chopping firewood before.
- Well, that's about all I could do.
- I've missed you.
- I missed you too.
Hey, I caught Tom before he left.
He-- he said you'd been a bit down lately.
- Oh.
No, no.
It's it's-- just work stuff.
I'm-- I'm just tired.
Like, all the time.
It's fine, really.
Um, have you talked to your mom yet?
- No.
She doesn't know anything.
- I figured since I didn't see, like, 20 in memoriam posts.
- Mm.
I still can't believe she added you.
- Stop!
I love your mom.
- I'm sorry.
I'm keeping you up.
- No, no, no.
It's-- it's fine.
Hey, do you want to have late dinner tomorrow night?
I mean, Tom's gone all week.
We could order pizza, watch a movie.
You know, just us.
- Yeah, I'd love that.
- It's month end, so I should be home around 9:00 or something.
[sigh] I fucking hate my job.
- [laughs] You want to trade lives?
- You know what?
Yeah, I would.
OK.
Good night, girl.
- Goodnight.
[ominous music]
- I feel really good today.
[whoosh]
[gasping]
[labored breathing]
[jolt]
- So what are you going to do all day?
Isn't your session this evening?
- I'll just go to the library.
- I don't think I've been to a library since college.
You know, I got thinking last night
after our talk about our time at school.
- Oh.
- Those were some of the best times of my life.
Well, when we got to see you.
Damien was always dragging you off with his bullshit.
Sorry.
I didn't mean to bring him up.
- It's weird.
Sometimes I wish he would just cease to exist,
but I also fantasize about facing him, finding
the perfect words to tell him exactly how he hurt me.
Leave no room for him to convince me that I'm wrong.
Really bring him to his knees.
- That's funny.
I feel the same way about my manager.
- [laughs]
- Personally, I'd like to see you
with someone who has their shit together,
someone that makes you feel safe, you know?
[gasp]
[brakes screeching]
[ominous music]
[smack]
God, I fucking hate this city!
Um, library's just up there, right?
[background music]
- The lovers.
Have you met someone recently?
- Um, no.
No, not at all.
- Hmm.
The fool.
- Oh.
Um, yeah, I guess I did meet someone.
Um, but it wasn't like that.
I mean, I-- I met a lot of people.
I just started group therapy.
- Have you seen a psychic before?
- No, I'm just exploring.
I was on medication before, but it made me nauseous,
so I'm trying some natural remedies.
My-- my mom used to give me these essential oils, and--
well, I guess that didn't really work either.
So I started listening to this podcast about self-care
and mindfulness.
- Meditation?
- No.
No.
I would not want to sit with my mind for that long.
- I see.
Did you suffer a loss?
[ominous music]
This was your child.
- No.
Well, I guess I sort of took care of him,
so maybe that's why.
- He was sick?
- Honestly, I don't really want to talk about it.
I had issues long before him.
I was just better at keeping my mind preoccupied.
I had everything under control.
I had a very strict routine, and-- and I
guess I just lost the motivation.
- There is a darkness that follows you.
- Yeah, that's a good way to put it.
- It's called a killgrin, an infection of the aura.
The more miserable you are, the stronger
it gets until the pain is so unbearable it consumes you.
That's when it takes control.
[laughs] I have just the thing you need.
These are healing crystals.
Amethyst, bloodstone, and howlite.
Very effective for depression, anxiety, insomnia.
I'll give them to you for $250 even.
- Um, yeah, I don't think so.
- You'll be back for them.
- Usually, Aaron likes to speak first,
but since he's not here with us tonight,
uh, I'd like to open up the floor to anyone
who hasn't spoken yet.
OK.
Um, well, let's get started.
No, actually, I have something I'd
like to share with you all this evening.
Most of you know my story fairly well by now,
so I won't bore you with that.
But I had a thought driving home from work last night.
Work ran late, and there must have
been a concert or something, because the traffic was
bumper to bumper.
It's the worst commute I've had in I don't know how long.
It took me three hours to get home.
And it was exactly as you'd imagine it.
Dozens of people beeping their horns, sweaty, angry faces,
screaming profanities, shaking their fists at the world.
It wasn't anything new, but it really got to me this time.
My heart was beating out of my chest.
The air in the car felt thick, and I--
I couldn't breathe.
[ominous music]
I put the window down and stuck my head out the way
a golden retriever would.
And I breathed in the cold air and looked up at the sky.
And I swear to god, I could see every star up there.
It was the most beautiful night sky I have ever seen.
[sigh] The thing is, the pain we carry
with us can contaminate the world as we perceive it,
as we experience it.
And the world can be a very unforgiving place
if we choose to see it that way.
I want you all to just look up, just right up
there at the ceiling.
Now, I know I'm not the greatest photographer,
but I wanted to memorialize the moment, the feeling I had, just
as a reminder that no matter how painful each
of our circumstances, we are all under that same beautiful sky.
- Fancy a drink?
- [gasp] Oh, god.
You scared me.
- Is that a yes?
- What?
No.
No, why-- why would that be a yes?
- OK, Uh, please don't take offense to this,
but you really seem like someone who needs a drink.
- I'm not interested.
- Well, what are you doing right now anyway?
Just being sad?
Just going from place to place and being sad over here,
and sad over there--
- I have dinner with a friend.
- Right now?
- Yes.
- Oh.
- Well, at 9:00.
- Oh, well, you've got plenty of time.
Let's go.
Pints on me.
- Brian--
- Miranda.
- The answer is no.
- OK.
Well, here.
Take my card in case you change your mind.
- Bye.
- See you soon.
[door creaking]
- Andie?
Are you back?
Andie?
Oh.
Are you still working?
Andie?
[ominous music]
[jolt]
[screaming]
[sirens]
[chatter on radio]
[ominous music]
[gasp]
[phone vibrating]
[swoosh]
Noah?
[light whooshing]
Noah, is that you?
[sniffling]
[crackling]
[jolt]
[ominous music]
[music fades]
[crying]
Fuck.
- Reading your horoscope?
- Hey.
Welcome back.
You didn't take the full two weeks?
- I was just sitting around.
I prefer to get back into things.
- How's Ashley?
- She moved out.
- Ah, fuck.
Sorry.
- It's for the best.
Trust me.
That is the Andie Selford file.
- Ah, OK.
- Are you thinking Ivanoff?
- No.
Seems our friend was already detained.
- What about her husband?
- Conference.
Do you remember Damien Waters?
- The stalker case?
- Yeah.
Can you find out where he was last night?
Thanks.
Good to have you back.
- You're really quitting?
- Yeah, they won't give me any more time off,
and I'm just not ready to come back yet.
- Of course.
No, I get it.
[sigh] It's just not going to be the same without you.
Do you know him?
- They really need you tonight?
- Yeah.
The VP of media is joining, so I've
got to be there for appearances.
[speaking over intercom]
- I liked your speech, by the way, at the funeral.
- Thanks.
Your mom sent flowers, you know?
- Yeah, I saw.
- It's just funny, the night--
I wasn't even supposed to be at that conference.
[ominous music]
They asked, and I just said yes because I say yes to everything.
If I was there--
it's my fault.
- No, it's not.
- She warned me about this.
- What do you mean?
- She said she felt like something horrible was
going to happen to her.
She said that life was so painful for her
and she didn't know if she was going to live much longer.
I thought she was doing better.
She was just in group therapy a few months ago.
I never should have left her.
- Tom, this didn't happen because
of what she was going through.
It was a random, horrible tragedy.
- She said she didn't know how to be happy anymore.
[ominous music]
She said she felt like there was a dark shadow following her.
- Flight 71, all passengers to the gate.
- That's my flight.
I'm really sorry about Noah, by the way.
I don't know if I ever said that to you.
- Thank you.
- Miranda, you're leaving early.
- Yeah, and you're--
you're really late.
- Yeah.
I had a bit of a night last night.
Oh, um, uh, I had a missed call a couple weeks ago.
Was that you by any chance?
- Yeah.
Yeah, that was-- that was me.
- Oh.
Why the late call?
Bad dream?
[laughs]
- My friend died.
[sputters] Sorry.
Seriously?
Oh, Miranda, I'm sorry.
I-- fuck!
I was--
- It's fine.
- [sigh]
- I'm starting to think I might be cursed.
- OK.
Well, why-- why do you say that?
- A psychic told me that I have a darkness following me.
- I see.
Well, um, what do you think?
- I don't know.
I thought I saw something, and I couldn't tell if it was a dream.
God, I feel like I'm losing control of my thoughts.
Horrible things just keep coming in and out.
- OK, well, that's not a curse.
That's just-- that's life.
At least, life in here.
So you're seeing a psychic.
- I don't know.
I guess I'm just desperate for some healing.
[laughter]
- Oh.
Well, I, um, I have some wine at my place if you want to--
- (WHISPERING) I don't think I'm that desperate.
- Yeah.
[ominous music]
[knocking]
- It's unlocked.
Aaron, are you there?
Thanks for coming with me.
I've been trying to get a hold of him for days.
Aaron?
I'm going to check upstairs.
No.
[screaming]
- I'd like to open the floor to anyone
who'd like to share their feelings about what
happened to Aaron.
Please, no details about the circumstances of his death.
It might be triggering.
- It's fucking hell.
We live in fucking hell.
[ominous music]
[gasp]
- Hey!
Hey!
Damien!
Damien, I know it's you!
[scream]
- Oh!
Hey, hey, I came to check on you.
What's going on? - It's him.
I know it's him.
I saw him in the doorway. - Who?
- Damien.
- Who's Damien?
What's going on?
- I gotta go.
- Miranda!
- Everything OK?
- I know who killed Andie.
- I'm listening.
- It was Damien.
- Miranda--
- Did you look into the security cameras?
- Those cameras have been broken for years.
Your building's run by morons.
- Well, I know that he's been following me.
He was going to kill me, but he got Andie instead.
- Miranda, it couldn't have been Damien.
We spoke with him yesterday.
He was working that same night.
He's back at that gym.
We saw the sign-in sheets and everything.
- Why didn't you call me?
- [sigh]
- Well, someone could be covering for him.
- Why would they do that?
- So what if he didn't do it?
I mean, it doesn't mean he's not stalking me again.
- Miranda, I really think you need to get some help.
- Well, I'm obviously not getting any here.
- Sounds like she's really trying to get back at her ex.
- Fuck.
- [sigh]
[growl]
[ominous music]
[ominous breathing]
[yell]
[background music]
Oh.
Thank you.
- Sorry about the mess.
- Did you have a party?
- No.
Did-- did you want to have a party?
I can invite some friends over.
- No, that's OK.
Uh, unless you want to?
- No.
No, I don't--
I don't want to.
No, I just-- uh, I just--
I want you to feel comfortable.
- [sigh]
- I didn't think I'd get you here so fast, so--
or at all.
Sorry.
No, I didn't-- uh, I just meant, uh, your call was unexpected.
- It's fine.
Uh, thank you for letting me stay here.
I, uh-- I don't feel safe at home right now, so--
- Oh.
Do you want to talk about it?
- Not really.
- It's not really your thing, right?
Talking about how you feel, letting people in.
So do you still, uh-- do you still think you're cursed?
- Sort of.
- And Damien, is he like, your, uh, Imhotep?
You know, from "The Mummy."
The-- you open the tomb, and you--
you release the curse.
- [laughs] Um, no.
Um, he's just a problem that will never go away.
- Hmm.
Sort of like a curse.
Mm.
Um, you want a beer?
- I'm still drinking this wine.
- Oh.
Right.
Um-- so, uh, why are you in group therapy?
- I don't really want to talk about that--
- You don't want to talk about it, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[laughs] I guess you prefer a psychic.
- Well, why are you in group therapy?
I've never heard you speak.
- Well, I have, just not since you've been there.
- Well, if you don't tell me anything,
I'm not going to tell you anything.
- All right.
Fine.
Uh, my brother was, uh, successful,
married, baby on the way.
Three degrees.
He ran a fucking marathon for charity every year.
[laughs] I mean, he was everything.
Everything I'm not, that's for sure.
[laughs] Uh, and then things started to change.
He became, uh, mean and distant, you know?
[ominous music]
He would disappear for long stretches of the night.
And then his wife, she would call me crying and begging me
to--
to talk to him, as if he'd listen to anything I'd say.
And then I tried to talk to our folks, you know?
But they wouldn't listen.
They-- [sigh] they thought I was being petty.
And then-- and then I talked to his best man.
He said I was overreacting.
Said it was work stress.
And then I went to school with one of his coworkers,
so I talked to them too.
I mean, I--
I talked to everyone.
Everyone except for-- for him because, you know,
that would have been uncomfortable.
[laughs] So, um--
anyway, one day he went to work and he shot three people,
and then he shot himself.
- Holy shit.
- Yep.
[background music]
So uh, what about you?
- Uh, you-- you got anything stronger than this?
- Oh, yeah.
[upbeat music]
- This is fancy.
- There are some things I take very seriously.
And stir.
Cheers.
- (SINGING) Oh, I kind of lost my mind
- Ugh, this is disgusting.
Ooh!
- (SINGING) And me, we're kind of different.
- Mm.
She is most motivated by screaming so loud
that your eyeballs explode.
- Does that happen in the movie?
- Yes, and she wants to make the whole world blind.
Whoa!
- [laughs]
- (SINGING) Make me feel not like the other girls
Locked in another world.
- You mean, like, metaphorically, right?
- [laughs]
- (SINGING) You know, you make me feel rich
You know I--
- I feel like I'm in college.
- [groan] College sucks.
- Yeah, I didn't exactly thrive there.
- Really?
But you're such a social butterfly.
[laughter]
- Not all of us are meant to, you know, thrive.
Some of us just got to chop the firewood.
Is that a projector?
- Mm, mm-hmm.
Yeah, I got a vampire movie from the '40s in there if you want
to watch.
- Is that when you were born?
- What?
- [laughs]
- I will have you know that I am much, much (DEEP VOICE) older
than that.
Ha, ha, ha.
[laughs]
- I'd be down for a movie.
- Hmm?
[music playing]
- Oh, hey, is that the file on Aaron Fowles?
- Yeah.
Oh my god, you OK?
You look terrible.
- Oh, yeah, no, I, uh, just couldn't sleep.
Hey, look, I talked to the guys over at Oshawa County
about the homeless man they found in the woods.
The injuries are identical to both our victims.
Scars on the wrists, dislocated jaw, total avulsion of the face.
- Hmm.
Maybe it was a bear.
- Sure looks like it.
- Jesus Christ, and he was homeless.
Like they haven't been through enough.
- Yeah, sure.
- What's on your arm?
- I don't know.
I must have scratched it in my sleep or something.
- You sure you're OK?
- Yeah.
Yeah, I'm fine.
[ominous music]
- [snoring]
[phone vibrating]
- Hello?
Mom, what number are you calling from?
No, that's not why, Mom.
Uh, I'm sorry.
I've just been busy.
Yeah, he did.
I didn't want to bother you.
I'm sorry.
No.
No, no, don't come here.
I'm fine.
[fast breathing]
Don't cry, Mom.
Listen, I'm going to come visit soon, OK?
I-- I'm just--
I've got a lot going on right now.
Um, I gotta go, Mom.
I'm-- I'm getting on an elevator and I'm going to lose signal.
OK, bye bye.

How have you been?
[clunk]
I love you too.
- Fuck off, Damien!
I thought we were done with this shit,
and yet somehow, you keep managing
to slither back into my life.
- God, you're so hateful.
- You violated the restraining order.
- Hey, you came here.
- I am talking about the fucking roses!
If you come back to my apartment again, I will go to the police.
- Good night!
- Didn't you already go to the police?
My manager got a call from them, asking
where I was last Wednesday.
You really think I fucking killed your friend?
You have such a high opinion of yourself.
- [stressed breathing] Why'd you have to come back?
Why can't you fucking leave me alone?
[gasp]
- Doesn't seem like things have been going too well without me.
How's group therapy?
- Have you been following me?
Have you been following me?
- You're recording this, aren't you?
Hmm?
Where is it?
Hmm?
- Damien, stop it.
- I bet I can find it.

- (SINGING) Take me back.
- Hello there, Houdini.
Where'd you disappear to?
Uh, I have your, uh, hair elastic here, in case that, uh,
entices you to come back by any chance.
Anyway, uh, call me.
There's my man.
What are you doing right now?
Work?
What?
Why-- why are you at work, dude?
Jordo, what up, bro?
You, me, margaritas, right fucking now.
I got a-- I got lime, I got tequila.
- (SINGING) Closer or farther away.
It's all--
- When'd you have a kid?
Miranda, pick up your phone.
I made margaritas.
(SPANISH ACCENT) Margaritas for Miranda.
[laughs] (NORMAL ACCENT) Call me back.
[phone ringing]
James?
Hey, James.
James, hey, what's up, dude?
It's-- it's Brian, man.
You, um-- yeah, it's been a while.
Hey, wh-- what are you doing tonight?
You want to-- you want to hang out?
James?
[sigh]
[music playing]
- Easy.
Easy.
It's hot.
So what's on your mind, kid?
- I think I might be going crazy.
- Why would you think something like that?
- I keep hearing the same noise.
It sounds like grinding teeth.
And then I see this shadow.
Tonight, I could feel it.
It was pulling at my skin, like it was trying to rip me open,
and (CRYING) for a moment, I think I wanted it to.
- You know, uh, I've been doing this for three years now,
and I thought providing people with a place to heal
would help me manage my own pain.
Relying on the company of others [sigh]
can get a little tricky when you're
a cranky old bachelor like me.
Sometimes I could escape my thoughts
with television or a good book, but then I would drop my guard.
And it's like Aaron would say.
Here it comes.
[sigh] The first time I saw it, I
was sitting right where you are.
[ominous music]
I felt a cold chill that was almost electric.
And I saw it in the corner of my eye,
staring at me from the doorway.
[jolt]
Real ugly motherfucker.
In the beginning, it-- it was difficult,
but I've become better at controlling it.
It's hardest when you're alone.
Sometimes it feels like the more miserable you are--
- The stronger it gets.
You've seen it too?
How do we get rid of it?
- I wish I knew.
- Is it here now?
- [sigh] I don't think we're ever alone.
- Someone told me that I have a darkness following me, an aura
infection.
Do you think that's what it is?
- No.
I think that pain is a powerful thing,
and maybe one place can only handle so much of it
until it starts to leak.
[phone vibrating]
[clatter]
- Fuck!
Hello?
Miranda, hey.
Who, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Slow down, slow down.
Uh, fuck, yeah!
Come-- come over.
All right. Yeah.
See you-- see you soon.
Uh-- [sniff] [groan]
[clattering]
[ominous music]
[heavy breathing]
Hello?
Miranda?
Ooh!
Shit!
That's enough of that.
[crackling]
(SOFTLY) Danny?
[light whooshing]
[growling scream]
[knocking]
- Brian, it's Miranda.
[gasp]
[ominous music]
- Pain is a powerful thing.
And maybe one place can only handle so much of it
until it starts to leak.
[music stops]
[soft music]
- [sigh]
[ominous music]
- (WHISPERING) Where are you?
[gasp]
Damien?
- Miranda, I'm so sorry.
I had to see you right now--
- Don't you fucking come near me.
- Miranda, I--
- Don't!
- Hey.
OK.
Listen, I'm so sorry.
I truly am.
About the roses-- it was a bad idea.
I just wanted you to know that I am here for you.
- You sent that fucking thing after me, didn't you?
- What?
Wh-- what thing?
Miranda, listen to what you're saying.
Listen-- listen to yourself.
You're not well.
I know it must have been so difficult with Noah and all.
You can't feel guilty about that--
- Don't you fucking say his name!
- I may not be perfect, but I would never
do that to you, ever.
I will never leave you like that.
- Oh my god.
[crying] Oh my god.
This isn't happening.
- Just-- just put the ax down and talk to me, OK?
What are you doing?
Miranda, stop it!
Stop it.
You're delusional.
- Dodge's Community Center.
- Miranda!
- 810 Fillmore Ave--
- Hey!
- [groaning]
- Stop!
Stop!
[struggling]
Why are you making me do this?
All I want to do is love you, and you're just
trying to ruin my life!
[crying]
- I don't care.
- [crying]
- I don't care if you kill me.
You can't control me anymore.
- [crying] Oh my god.
Oh my god.
I'm so sorry, Miranda.
I didn't want to hurt you!
I don't know what's wrong with me.
I'm so sorry.
[crying] I'm so sorry.
I never wanted to hurt you.
I don't want to live without you.
I love you. I love you.
[crying]
[ominous breathing]
[ominous music]
[crying]
[growling]
[whimpering]
[yelling]
[squelch]
[thunk]
[growling]
- [sigh]
[silence]
[crackling]
[ominous music]
[deep gurgling]
[panicked breathing]
[clatter]
- Police!
[growling]
- Miranda!
[gunshots]
[growling]
[squelch]
- [yelling]
[growling]
- Miranda, get up.
[ominous breathing]
Miranda!
Get out of there!
[moaning]
[growling]
[dramatic music]
- I feel really good today.
- Are you OK?
[growling]
[intense music]
[growling]
[soft music]
[crying]
[sirens]
- So, uh, any chance you know what the fuck just happened?
Is it gone, or is it going to come back?
[peaceful music]
- I'd like to open the floor for anyone who hasn't spoken yet.
- I'd like to speak.
Two months ago, my boyfriend jumped out our apartment window.
The last thing he did was smile at me
and tell me that he was doing better.
But I understand now.
He was only happy because he knew that it was all
going to be over soon.
I still think about those moments before he died.
The images come and go.
And sometimes it can really get a hold of me,
but I'm better at controlling it now.
[crackling]
[silence]
