Her soul is at peace now.
(ELECTRONIC MUSIC)
You know what's funny, you don't even know my name.
Let's just call you Mr. Big, shall we?
Mr. Big seemed nice.
Oh...
Just sit down, Aesha.
Okay...
You went out again last night.
I thought you told me you were studying with Imogen?
- Sorry. - Stop saying sorry Aesha!
Sorry doesn't actually mean anything.
It doesn't change the fact that you lied to me again.
Doesn't change the fact you didn't do your work, again,
does it?
Okay I know I messed up all right, again.
I don't want to be that kind of mother you know that.
But I just can't watch you do this to yourself,
not after what happened with your dad.
I need you, you know that.
And sometimes, I see him in you and it scares me,
because you can't become what he ended up being, all right?
You're my little girl
and you've gotta get your head together.
Come here, I've got something for you.
I presume the signal will be bad,
but the guy said there is WiFi,
so I expect a message at the very least.
Okay.
Enjoy yourself, relax, and text me when you get there.
It's snowing as well so you can send me a selfie.
Oh, I wouldn't let you down like that.
Look his name's Dan, and he's picking you up
- from the station, okay? - Okay.
The train'll be here in a couple of minutes, so,
I'll see you soon.
See you soon.
All right, thanks again.
Miss you.
[MOM] I think you need to go away and have no distractions
just for the weekend.
Go and let it all out.
- Ms. Wadia? - (LAUGHING) Hi.
Hello, you can call me Aesha.
Hi, nice to meet you, Aesha.
Nice to meet you too, it's Dan right?
- Dan. - Yeah.
Most people refer to me as the B&B guy.
Oh I see, thank you for that.
Okay, so it's a little over a 40 minute drive,
I got you a bottle of water
and some refreshments in the bag.
Thank you 40 minutes, I could've gotten a taxi.
I'm so sorry.
Don't worry it's my fault for living so far out, let's go.
(ANTICIPATORY MUSIC)
Oh wow, you've got such a nice place.
Thank you.
Feel free to help yourself to anything in the cupboards.
It's a what's-mine-is-yours type of B&B so help yourself.
Most of it is actually from the animals here
so it's all fresh.
No way, that's cool.
Should we go to your room.
Yes, please, I'm pretty tired.
So go ahead and settle down into your room.
I have put fresh towels on the bed, if you do need any more
then just give me a shout.
I have a washing machine downstairs too.
Use and abuse, powder is beside the machine, any questions?
No, no that's great.
Sorry I feel like I have talked myself to death here.
No, it's perfect.
Yeah, thank you and thank you for the lift as well.
My pleasure, have a good first night.
And I'm sure I will see you about tomorrow.
Thanks.
[DAN] If you need anything I will be in my office
for the next few hours, downstairs.
Okay great.
- Night. - Night.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(PHONE BUZZING) (LAUGHING)
Oh my God, what are the bloody chances that you'd call me
as soon as I've got signal?
[WOMAN] Oh my God I know right, it's like (mumbling),
Aesha has WiFi, how is it then, tell me?
I don't know, I just, I thought I was coping in my own way
I didn't think that what I was doing was causing
this big drama like that my mum has to send me what,
hundreds of bloody miles away just to sit on my own
and think about what I've done, it's like I've been
thrown on the naughty step.
[WOMAN] Well what is it your mom thinks you need?
I don't know, I honestly can't say that being stuck here
by myself is like the best thing, I mean.
[WOMAN] Okay, text me the address.
- Nah. - Text me the address!
No, no it's like so far away you don't have to do it,
I wasn't thinking...
[WOMAN] Shut up Aesha okay come on gimme the address okay?
No my mom is gonna kill me, and you.
[WOMAN] Okay, love you lots, see you soon, bye-bye.
Why (LAUGHING)?
(GROANING)
(EERIE CALMING MUSIC)
If you can hear me,
see me,
then I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for what I've put Mom through.
I just miss you,
I miss you Dad.
Just give me a sign, or something.
So I know you're still here.
Hello?
Hi uh, sorry, I didn't mean to just walk in.
I'm leaving now away, so, yeah...
(GASPS) (SUDDEN STING)
Didn't mean to scare you.
I see you found the church.
Oh yeah yeah I was just having a look around.
It should be locked up, gotta be careful,
you get squatters in places like that.
Oh no no I was just inside, there's someone there, a nun.
A nun?
It isn't a working church.
- Well it's open, I saw her. - You went inside?
Yeah.
Oh God I'm so cold it's freezing out here.
You look like you need a coffee, come on.
How do you take it?
[AESHA] Oh don't worry I'll do it,
you sit down, I'll get it.
- How do you take yours? - Black, one sugar please.
Sure thing.
So uhm, do you have WiFi by any chance?
First question I'm always asked.
Yes we do, on the landing there's a do's and don'ts form.
The WiFi is at the bottom.
It does get a bit weaker at point, so bear with it.
So how long have you lived here then, my mom said
something about it being recently converted, is that right?
Yes that's right, it used to be my mother's.
It was her convent that had been in the family
for generations and generations,
that the nuns would live here, (MUMBLING),
practice at the church across the road.
So you're not religious then?
Well I just mean with, so are you, you changing it into
a modern farm.
I see, no, not overly religious myself.
My mom was before she passed away.
We sometimes still get people stop by thinking it to be
the nunnery.
Well, must get really annoying.
I was wondering if it would at all be possible
that you could maybe look after my daughter?
She is in her room, completely full of cold.
It wouldn't be like a babysitting job.
I mean she is sick.
Oh yeah yeah Dan that's fine, sure.
She will most likely stay in home most of the night.
No honestly I like the company, so, it's fine.
Thank you, thank you for this, I, really appreciate it.
(EERIE MUSIC)
(PHONE BUZZING)
Uh sorry who are you?
Who are you?
Actually I'm just staying in...
Ladies, sorry, totally slipped my mind.
Aesha this is Tilda, Tilda is from France,
Tilda (SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE) Aesha,
(SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE).
Bonjour, my toilet is blocked.
(SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE), I'm peeing.
I'm so sorry.
(LAUGHING)
- Oh God. - My bad.
Please forgive me.
Tilda is staying in, next to the outhouse next door.
Aesha, I am heading out, mind if I give you a rundown.
Yeah please, yeah, let's get away quickly.
She's asleep, full of cold, as I said.
She shouldn't be a problem at all.
If something does happen...
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Then, (MUMBLING)...
Worst case, two shots of this, and a paracetamol.
- Okay. - The number is written here.
Hmm-mm.
And you'll need the keys to the front door.
Merci for the toilet, see you soon.
I'll be over in the morning to fix it up.
Merci, (SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE).
Okay, okay, (SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE).
Okay.
I uh, I thought I was the only one staying this weekend?
[DAN] I thought your mom would've mentioned I rent out
the outhouse mobile home.
[AESHA] No she didn't.
I'm sorry if it's some kind of problem.
Oh no no no, no I was just curious.
[DAN] I will have her toilet up and running tomorrow
and then you probably won't see her anymore.
- Anyway, let's dash. - Okay.
Need anything, give me a call.
Signal is pretty bad, but I have my WiFi messages enabled
so, ping me a message.
Okay, where are you going, you're going on a date?
Oh, I have Nothing to worry about.
Oh really, are you gonna come home?
Of course! (LAUGHING)
Well don't do anything I would.

[NUN] Hello?
Uh, sorry who is that?
[NUN] It's Sister Christy Ann.
Sorry I'm just renting out the B&B.
[NUN] I was wondering if you could let me in
so I could discuss with you the options
of potentially joining God.
Sorry, not tonight.
[NUN] Would you mind just letting me in,
to discuss with you?
Sorry no, I can't really, I'm not the homeowner.
[NUN] When you are to return home,
you could return with the knowledge.
Yeah, yeah, totally understand, but uhm,
maybe I'll go and see someone at my local ministry
or something.
[NUN] I would really appreciate it if I could come in,
it's awfully cold outside.
No sorry.
Sorry I really can't let you in, it's not my house.
[NUN] I understand, but I have come all of this way,
wouldn't you open the door?
Sorry, I said no, no.
[NUN] Okay.
(DOOR KNOCKING)
Yeah?
[NUN] I have cookies.
Sorry, I don't have any cash or anything on me.
[NUN] I don't ask for money, just the company in return.
Maybe a drink?
It is cold outside.
Look I'm really sorry, I wish I could let you in,
but I can't, it's not my house.
Miss?
Look I do appreciate the gesture.
[NUN] You're alone in the house aren't you?
Look I have to go now, okay, so is there anything else
I can help you with?
[NUN] Alone in the house, miles away from anybody else.
If I can help you with anything else?
[NUN] I saw you earlier, out in the woods.
Pretty girl, aren't you?
Well anyhow, I'll be off now.
I'll leave the cookies on the doorstep for you.
Okay.
[NUN] I'll be going now.
Okay, thank you again.
[NUN] That's okay.

She came by, wanted to convert me and give me cookies.
[DAN] Never ever heard of her.
Yeah well she wanted to come in but I told her obviously
you're not here, so.
[DAN] Well of course yes don't be letting strangers in.
Uhm, look, I'll be back about 10, if she comes back,
threaten her that I'll be back soon.
Say that I will have her removed from the property
by the police, that should do the trick.
Yeah that's great.
[DAN] All right well sorry about that, I will be off then.
Wait actually there was something else.
[DAN] Go on?
Uh yeah the tennis court lights outside, it's still on.
[DAN] Ah that'll be Tilda puttering about in there again.
Do me a favor and pop and shut the light off would you,
Tilda did this the other night, I don't know if I mentioned
that she does photography and she was out in the back,
which is completely fine.
But the left the light on the other day, cause me all
kinds of problems with my workshop.
It completely killed the battery.
Aesha, if it's too much of an ask?
Sorry, don't worry, you seem to have had an eventful night
look don't worry about it and hopefully it won't cause me
too many problems tomorrow.
No no it's fine, I'll, yeah I'll go outside

Earlier you said you were, you were called Christy Ann?
[NUN] Yes.

[NUN] No, I said my name was Christy Ann.
No you said it was Cindy Lamb, just, literally just now.
[NUN] Are you able to call her?
Yeah, I'll ring now.
Hi uh, is that Sister Juna?
I have a Christy Ann here at my house.
She said that someone was supposed to pick her up
and they haven't turned up, so, would you be able to help?
Uh yeah, yeah that's the place, and yeah, she's here now.

Okay so I hope you get home safely and good night.
[NUN] You didn't call her.
Yeah I did.
[NUN] No you did not call.
Well you must've heard me just now,
I literally just called her.
[NUN] You didn't call her, because she is made up!
So don't you dare lie to me.
Was it you who was messing around in the tennis court

[NUN] No.
Right while I'm going to bed now.
(ANTICIPATORY MUSIC)
(DOOR KNOCKING)
(GLASS RINGING) (SCREAMING)
(RUMBLING) (WHIMPERING)
[NUN] If you are listening,
I'm here because I was trying to help you.
I will admit, I do not have a broken down car.
I'll admit that I have lied to you about my intentions
of being here, I used to be a nun at this convent.
I was passing by tonight, like I sometimes do,
to revisit my memories of the land where I spent a large
part of my life.
But tonight, tonight I saw something,
something not quite right.
There is a man inside your house.
I saw him earlier, on your property.
And I realized who it was.
Pretending, sneaking around your house.
It was the owner, it wasn't a stranger at all.
And he's upstairs, in your house, in the front bedroom.
He never left for the party.
He stayed, his car is out back.
Go check for yourself.
- You stop lying! - I'm not.
Yes you are, you stop lying and you get off
this property now before I call the police.
[NUN] I'm afraid you live in the middle of
the countryside, the estimation for the arrival
of a police unit is at least an hour.
They won't be able to get to you in time.
So what do you want, okay, what the hell do you want?
[NUN] I can't warn you anymore than I have.
In the front bedroom stands a man.
There is no man, okay, there is a child in that bedroom.
[NUN] He does not have a child.
Your mistaken, I am not.
A man stands in the window, and you are in grave danger.
No, no there is a child, a child in that bedroom, okay,
I know there is.
[NUN] Have you seen the child?
If you have seen the child and met with the child then fine,
but I believe you to be lying.
There is a man in the bedroom, watching me from the window.
You're in danger.
You need to leave the house now.
Imogen?
Imogen!
[NUN] Don't go upstairs, don't go.
Imogen, Imogen?
Oh, oh!
(MUTTERING) What, Imogen?
(MUTTERING), look at me, look at me, please, please.
Imogen it's Aesha, do you hear me?
Oh fuck, fuck, oh my God oh my God!
Listen to me, listen to me, I'm gonna go get help okay?

I just need to get help okay, you just, you stay here.
Stay here okay? (DOOR KNOCKING)
Help, help, hey, there's someone, help, oh my God,
there's someone in the house all right,

I never told you my name.
[NUN] Pardon?
I said I never told you my name.
Oh yes you did.
