00:29I'll see you next time.
00:58I'll see you next time.
01:27I'll see you next time.
01:52I'll see you next time.
02:20I'll see you next time.
02:58I'll see you next time.
03:29I'll see you next time.
03:59Beggars can't be choosers.
04:01I think he'll do very well.
04:03Shall we go inside?
04:14She'll be all right in the car.
04:16Stay there, darling.
04:17It won't be long.
04:18We're just going to go in the house with Mr. Powers.
04:19All right.
04:27It needs rather a lot doing to it, I'm afraid.
04:31That's all right.
04:32I don't mind, as long as the price is right.
04:34Yes, of course.
04:35Yes, of course.
04:36House prices are ridiculous these days, aren't they?
04:39Especially to first-time purchasers.
04:41Have you managed to get a job in the area too?
04:44Splendid.
04:48Well, now, we'll just check the particulars.
04:51Just one child, isn't it?
04:54Sophie.
04:55An impressionable age, I always think.
04:57She's very quiet.
05:00Yes, well, this all seems in order, Mr. Peters.
05:03Not exactly ship-shaped condition, but I'm sure there'll be no problem alone on this particular property.
05:14I hope you'll be very happy here.
05:29Hey, what's that paper black platform, Joe?
05:31Yeah, yeah, all right.
05:32Well, over to me a bit.
05:33Take it round a bit.
05:38Yeah, all right.
05:39I'm watching it.
05:40That one's going to go out of there.
05:42Yeah, we'll connect this spot in front room for you, Joe.
06:15You promised.
06:18That's right.
06:20I promised.
06:57That one's going to go out of there.
07:07I don't know.
07:43I don't know.
08:03I don't know.
08:07Stop it!
08:13Mommy!
08:14Mommy!
08:16All right.
08:17What is it?
08:18The wall.
08:25She says it's blood.
08:27Blood?
08:30Someone's got a vivid imagination, haven't they?
08:33I expect it's fine or rust.
08:35God alone knows what you've done to the gas as well.
08:37It's leaking all over the bedroom.
08:39The gas tub.
08:39I couldn't turn it off.
08:51There's nothing.
08:52No gas.
08:54Nothing.
08:54But there was.
08:55I know there was.
08:57It was.
08:57Nothing.
08:58But I couldn't get you to stop.
09:01I couldn't get you to stop.
09:02I couldn't get you to stop.
09:32I live just across the road.
09:34I thought you might like a cup of tea.
09:36How lovely. Come in.
09:45William!
09:46Come through into the kitchen.
09:49By the way, I'm Emma.
09:51We're in a terrible mess, I'm afraid.
09:54Don't envy you.
09:55Yes, there's a lot to do.
09:58Excuse me a minute.
10:03William!
10:05Come down.
10:07He's ready to survive.
10:18Oh, how lovely.
10:20You are kind, thank you.
10:22Oh, this is my husband.
10:23Hi, William Peters.
10:25Hello, Gina.
10:26I do hope you don't think I'm batting me in.
10:28Oh, good Lord, no.
10:39You know, I've read some.
10:41Moving house.
10:42Biggest up heat will you ever have in your life.
10:44Much more stressful.
10:47Jason's job.
10:48Death in the family or getting a divorce.
10:50I don't think I fancy any of those.
10:52Not today, at any rate.
10:54Oh, there's so much need to do it.
10:57You get the feeling that you'll never get straight in a million years.
11:00Hey.
11:03Look at this.
11:06Well, that's not ours, is it, darling?
11:09Oh, no, I didn't say it was.
11:10If it was a spare one going, we might as well use it.
11:13Clear to decks.
11:14Oh.
11:20You must have belonged to the last people, I suppose.
11:23Did you know them?
11:24Me?
11:25No, not really.
11:27Oh, what about Sophie?
11:29She doesn't drink tea.
11:31Milk.
11:32I'll take her some milk.
11:35Why don't you come upstairs with me and meet Sophie?
11:38Um, rules of the hour.
11:40No one's allowed to go upstairs empty-ended.
11:42Oh, fair enough.
11:43What shall I take?
11:44Well, you could load me up with blankets and you could bring the milk.
11:55Oh, and do you think you could get the pillow as well?
11:58Yes.
11:58Thanks.
12:00Oh.
12:03Oh, very good.
12:04You're like a Sherpa going up Everest.
12:05Mm, I am.
12:09You all right?
12:12I'm sorry.
12:13It's just that I didn't see that there before.
12:16Oh, that.
12:17Well, I just found it.
12:18Down there in the cupboard where the tablecloth was.
12:21Oh, Matt.
12:22I'm going to collapse if I stand here much longer.
12:24I'm coming.
12:25I'm coming.
12:37This is Sophie.
12:38Hello, Sophie.
12:41Brought you up some milk.
12:43Sophie, darling, say hello to Jean.
12:47Oh, dear.
12:48She talks more to the cat than she does to us.
12:50Oh, they all go through a phase.
12:53Come along, then.
12:54Good to make your bed up, haven't we?
12:57Can I do anything to help?
12:59Oh, you could just shove that lot in there.
13:02At least they'd be out of sight.
13:07How's Timmy now, darling?
13:09He doesn't like it here.
13:11Oh, dear.
13:13Well, he'll soon get used to it.
13:15Don't worry.
13:16You haven't done any unpacking, have you?
13:20And you know your nightlight's in there somewhere, don't you?
13:24And do you know what an old fusspot you are about it?
13:32Look.
13:42How many more of these are we going to find?
13:49Hey, look.
13:54Snap.
13:55We've got a pair.
13:57Huh?
14:01What are you trying to do?
14:02Kill me?
14:12What are you looking at?
14:14The really nice thing about people who just move in
14:17is that they don't have time to put their curtains up.
14:29You're a dirty old man.
14:31I wouldn't say old.
14:34Well, she'd better put something on.
14:35She'll freeze to death in that house.
14:38Wrong again.
14:40Come on, that's quite woke me up.
14:42You'll be queuing up for blue movies next.
14:45Why should I want to do that?
14:51What else have?
14:53Mmm.
14:56What's the matter?
14:57Nothing.
14:59It's just that...
15:01Well, what were those sore things?
15:02What?
15:03What were they doing there?
15:04I thought the police took everything away.
15:05How should I know?
15:06They've come to bed.
15:12Poor things.
15:14They obviously don't know.
15:15No reason why they should.
15:17They're bound to find out.
15:19Eventually, yes.
15:20But for goodness sake, let them settle in first, love.
15:24They come to bed.
15:30Oh.
15:38Oh.
15:44Oh.
15:52Oh.
17:15I'm George Evans. Where are you off to?
17:16Morning.
17:17Well, I'm starting work today at the hospital.
17:19It's in Stevens.
17:20Oh, it's on me way.
17:21Easily drop you off.
17:22Jump in.
17:33What's your line of work, then? Not a brain surgeon, by any chance, are you?
17:37Not yet.
17:39No, I'm not sure myself. I used to be a steward on a cruise liner, but no, that's no sort
17:44of life.
17:46No? All that sunshine and beautiful girls lying around the swimming pool? Do me a favour.
17:52Yeah, well, that side of it's okay.
17:54No, with Sophie growing up and, well, me always away from home, this is the only kind of job I
18:00could get around here.
18:02Tell you the truth, I'm not even sure what hospital quarters do.
18:05Well, dead bodies around most of the time, I should imagine.
18:08Great. Cut myself shaving. I'm out like a light.
18:13There you are.
18:14Now, off you go and find Timmy.
18:16And when you find him, tell him from me he's to carry his own cat food from the supermarket from
18:21now on.
18:26Now, you don't spit it, don't you?
18:30I feel quite guilty. I don't have a coffee. I don't have much to do.
18:34Because it's always time for me.
18:37Anyway, I'll go.
18:49Timmy.
18:57Timmy.
19:01Timmy.
19:05Timmy.
19:08Timmy.
19:09Timmy.
19:20Jimmy!
19:48Timmy
19:56Timmy
20:14Please
20:16Move
20:17Move
20:17Move
20:18Move
20:18Move
20:38Keep
20:39It's all right.
20:42Poor Timmy.
20:47You're just gonna stay in Mummy's bed with Mummy and look after each other, okay?
21:16Come on.
21:41Come on.
22:15Stupid cat.
22:25She loved that bloody cat.
22:27Well, you know, sorry we're both off.
22:31Emma's taking all the pills the doctor left. I think it's the best thing.
22:36Sophie?
22:36Oh, she went off hours ago. Poor little thing.
22:42Why? That's what I keep asking myself.
22:44I mean, cats aren't stupid, so what does ours have to be?
22:48I didn't even know the damn window was broken.
22:51She thought the world looked a blessed thing.
22:53How'd you get her another one?
22:55Try telling that to Sophie.
22:56Oh, I see. I'm sorry.
22:58No, I'm sorry.
23:04Uh, I think I'll just pop up. I'll see if it'll be right.
23:10Yeah.
23:23There we go.
23:27Hidden door.
23:28What's the way it's going to be, we'll be right out.
23:29Don't forget me too.
23:29Yeah, I think my chce.
23:29As a matter of fact, actually, I think I'll be right back.
23:29I'll just go through myself.
23:29You want to be right back with me too?
23:30Oh, yeah.
23:34Oh, yeah.
23:36Yeah, all right.
23:36It's nice to me.
23:39I'm sorry.
23:42Sophie.
23:46I suppose I'd better run him in in the morning.
23:48Couldn't he take the day off?
23:49Says not.
23:51They could both do with a good night's sleep, if you ask me.
23:54Jenny, quickly!
23:59Darling, it's all right.
24:01Stop. Calm down.
24:09Mummy! Mummy!
24:19Don't go. Please don't go.
24:39I told her before about him, did I?
24:41Yeah?
24:41Well, she's dropped off at last.
24:44It's all my fault. She saw me.
24:46How do you mean?
24:48Well, I was out burying the cat.
24:50I looked up.
24:52I thought she was asleep.
24:54Oh, poor child.
24:57God only knows how Emma didn't wake up.
24:59It's best that she should sleep.
25:01She's had a pretty nasty shock as well.
25:03Yeah.
25:04You sure you don't mind staying the night?
25:06No.
25:07Anyway, I promised Sophie.
25:09All seemed different in the morning.
25:13Well, because of some damn stupid cat.
25:29She's sound asleep.
25:31Oh, good.
25:32You'd better get some sleep, too,
25:33if you've got to get up at the crack of dawn.
25:36All right, sir.
25:37There.
25:39Do you mind if I leave the landing light on?
25:41Oh, sure, sure.
25:43Thanks.
25:44Good night.
25:44Good night.
25:46Good night.
25:47Good night.
25:59Good night.
26:01Good night.
26:04Good night.
26:10Good night.
26:16Uh-hmm, good night.
26:31¶¶
26:51¶¶
26:52It's all right.
26:57I was afraid.
26:59It's all right. Don't worry.
27:21¶¶
27:22¶¶
27:23¶¶
27:26¶¶
27:27¶¶
27:32¶¶
27:38Al! Al! Al!
27:43¶¶
27:43Yeah, he buried bits of her all over the garden and under the floorboards.
27:48Then one day a dog dug something up in the front over there.
27:50That was that.
27:52When the police arrived, barricaded himself in the attic.
27:55I mean, you read about things like this, but...
27:59I just don't believe that a house can relive the past.
28:02Do you?
28:04No, quite honestly, I don't.
28:07Is Sophie all right? I think she's asleep.
28:11Jean.
28:14Tell me again what happened.
28:16I've told you.
28:18Tell me again.
28:20Well, I... I looked up and... there they were.
28:24After that?
28:26I screamed and... I suppose I must have fainted.
28:29And when you came round, there was nothing there?
28:31No.
28:35And I didn't see anything.
28:38And you didn't see anything.
28:41No.
28:43What are you...
28:44Are you saying that I made this up?
28:46I don't know.
28:47I don't know what I'm saying.
28:49I'm trying to make some kind of sense out of all this.
28:52Well, the cat...
28:54It got caught on the broken glass.
28:57Well, the blood. I mean, there was blood and those salt things.
29:03Only you saw that.
29:07Oh, no.
29:09Look, please, Jean, I didn't...
29:11You're saying that I imagined all this?
29:13No.
29:13I don't know what you saw.
29:16I believe that you thought you saw it.
29:19Only... Emma and I didn't.
29:22And it's our house.
29:23And it hasn't done anything to us.
29:28It's our one chance of building a life together.
29:31All our money's in it.
29:33Somehow we've got to be able to live there.
29:35Emma and I have got to believe that it's all right.
29:38For us.
29:40There's no alternative.
29:44William's right, Jean.
29:46We've got to make it work for us somehow.
29:49And to do that, we're gonna need your help.
29:53Promise us that you'll never breathe a word about this to anyone.
29:56I mean, it doesn't matter whether you're right or we're right.
29:59But just a hint that anything's wrong and suddenly
30:03people are gonna remember that murder.
30:07We won't even stand a chance.
30:10Yes.
30:11All right.
30:12I promise.
30:15Don't worry.
30:16You can count on us.
30:21Darling, it's late.
30:23What about Sophie?
30:24Well, she can stay here for the night.
30:26Oh, thanks, George.
30:29I miss you, George.
30:34I'm always happy.
30:44Thanks, George.
30:47I'm not sure.
30:50I'll do it.
30:51I want to watch this.
30:51We'll get it a little bit.
30:52What about Sophie?
30:52I was walking around for a while...
30:53Oh, thanks, George.
30:59Don't be taking it.
31:05William, I'm just going down the shop.
31:07All right.
31:07All right.
31:08It'll be about an hour.
31:09Okay.
31:21Hello.
31:22Hello.
31:23Hello, Sophie.
31:24Hello.
31:25Sorry we've not seen you.
31:26We've been so busy with the house.
31:28It's looking lovely.
31:30Still a long way to go yet, I'm afraid.
31:32We've been meaning to ask you both over, but, well, William's been on nights a lot.
31:37We're just off to the shops.
31:39I'll walk with you.
31:41Lovely.
31:43How's George then?
31:44Oh, he's very well.
31:47I must get something for George for supper.
31:49Maybe I'll get liver.
31:50He likes that.
31:51I know you don't want to talk about it, but is everything all right?
31:54Yes, yes, it's fine.
31:56Look, I'm sorry about that night.
31:58Oh, if it's us, I should say sorry.
32:01You look tired.
32:02Oh, I'm all right.
32:05I think I will get some liver.
32:06Looks nice, doesn't it?
32:12What is it?
32:14Look.
32:15Look.
32:17Look.
32:19Oh, it's all right.
32:20It's all right, darling.
32:21It's all right.
32:21Mommy.
32:21I'm all right, really.
32:28Are you sure you're feeling all right?
32:30Yes, yes, I'm fine.
32:31I don't know what came over me.
32:43Sophie, you won't tell Daddy what happened, will you?
32:45Hmm?
32:46You'll only worry.
32:48Please.
32:49If that's what you want, you'd better give me a shopping.
32:54Thanks.
33:05Hello.
33:06Hello.
33:06We just met in the street.
33:08Well, it's nice to see you again.
33:09You're working wonders, I must say.
33:11We should have a look inside.
33:13In fact, I've just made some tea.
33:14Would you like some?
33:15Yes.
33:16Why not?
33:16Come on in.
33:17Lovely.
33:17Thanks.
33:19Not bad, is it?
33:24Well, this is a bit more like it.
33:26Not bad, is it?
33:29Certainly isn't.
33:31William's worked very hard.
33:33He never stops.
33:34You must come upstairs and look around before you go.
33:44Yes.
33:45Perhaps you were superstitious after all.
33:48We chucked them out.
33:53Sophie, stop gasoline, chocolate, and go and get some milk out of the fridge for Mummy, please.
34:07What is it?
34:08In the fridge?
34:16It's not true.
34:20Get out.
34:22Go on.
34:23Get out.
34:25Nothing has ever happened since that night.
34:27Nothing.
34:27Not until you've come back in here.
34:29Now, we're all right on our own.
34:31You just leave us be.
34:33Now, get out.
34:33Go on.
34:34Get out.

43:23Oh, my God.
43:25Oh, my God.
43:26Oh, my God.
43:36I'm sorry, Mrs. Evans, she's still under sedation.
44:24I'm sorry, Mrs. Evans, she's still under sedation.
44:58I'm sorry, Mrs. Evans.
45:15All on this house, a blood story, are we?
45:18What do you make of it?
45:19Oh, rubbish so far.
45:21Have you managed to talk to everybody, huh?
45:22Well, if you and the mothers are at the party, they're either hysterical or the husband's worn you off.
45:26There has to be a story there somewhere.
45:30Are you staying down the road?
45:32Yes.
45:33Can you have a drink?
45:34Gin and tonic.
45:35Gin and tonic, please, love.
45:44You can see her for a few minutes, Mrs. Evans, but please don't stay too long.
45:48Her husband came with a little girl in the middle of the night.
46:01They've gone.
46:03What do you mean Sophie, you mean?
46:04Mm-hmm.
46:14Who's Mr. Powers?
46:16He's trying to help you.
46:23Sorry, Mrs. Evans, the doctor's here.
46:39It's very good of you to talk to me.
46:42Emma said you were trying to help them, Mr. Powers.
46:45Well, that's what friends are for, isn't it?
46:49Where have William and Sophie gone?
46:51For the time being, just away.
46:54But they're safe.
46:55Don't worry.
46:57I just thank God they're out that house.
47:00Exactly.
47:01The house.
47:05I believe you knew the Johnsons.
47:08The man who murdered his wife.
47:12Only very slightly.
47:14Well, then perhaps you can help me to help William and Emma.
47:27I'm afraid she's gone.
47:29Gone?
47:29Her husband came to collect her in the night.
47:32Where has she gone?
47:33Afraid we don't have an address.
47:35I wonder, could I have a word with you?
47:47It's a little embarrassing after all the terrible things that have happened, but how well did you know the Peters?
47:53We met them when they first moved in.
47:55We can find no trace of Mrs. Peters through any of the social security departments.
48:00It would appear they weren't actually married.
48:03Well, does it matter?
48:04Can't we just leave them in peace now?
48:06I suppose you're right.
48:08No doubt they have their reasons.
48:10Well, thank you.
48:12Come on.
48:37Sophie!
48:46You all right, darling?
48:48Hey, he's done it!
48:50Watch out!
48:51He's actually done it!
48:53Ah, who cares?
48:55A million dollars, you'll go to bathe in champagne for the rest of your life.
48:59A million?
49:00A cool million.
49:02Oh, well.
49:04Mmm!
49:05Now, do you love me?
49:08No.
49:09I love your money.
49:11Ew, what a gold digger.
49:13No!
49:14A million!
49:15Right, that's it.
49:17No!
49:18William, no!
49:19No!
49:21William!
49:22William!
49:40Oh, my God.
49:54Cheers.
49:55Cheers.
49:57To, uh, Andrew James Powers, provider of all wealth.
50:02Hmm, he had the easy part.
50:04Takes a man of vision to know what the public wants
50:06and how to give it to him.
50:08A million for the film rights says that guy's a genius.
50:12And who did all the work?
50:14Who set it up for him in the first place?
50:17Hmm.
50:18Um...
50:19I just wish he knew how really frightened I was sometimes,
50:23never knowing what was gonna happen.
50:27Well,
50:29if you'd known what I was gonna do all the time,
50:31you'd never have fooled anybody, would you?
50:32And you were for real, believe me.
50:36Now we're for real, aren't we?
50:38Didn't know that when he hired you, did you?
50:40Poor unmarried mum with nowhere to go.
50:42Hmm, fell in love with my husband, didn't I?
50:44Prove it.
51:21Hmm.
51:25Yep.
51:27Hmm, I'm willing.
51:29Sure.
51:35I guess...
51:36Well done.
51:36You been good.
51:37Huh.
51:39Huh.
51:40Huh.
51:41Huh.
51:42Huh.
51:43Huh.
51:44Huh.
51:44Huh.
52:03Not a bad life, eh?
52:0620% of two and a half million.
52:09Hmm.
52:12What about Sophie?
52:14Oh, don't worry.
52:15They're only nightmares.
52:16She'll grow out of it.
52:18William, we've been here three years in California
52:20and she's still having them.
52:22I mean, she was so young.
52:23I mean, we don't know what she remembers
52:24or what she makes of it all.
52:26We'll tell her one day, eh?
52:28When she's old enough to understand properly.
52:31Stop worrying.
52:33This story has a happy ending.
52:35Remember?
52:41How many times have I told you
52:42not to come in without knocking?
52:53Where the hell'd you get there?
52:58No!
53:00No!
53:02No!
53:03No!
53:04No!
53:07No!
