"You feel that, Joe?" " Feel what?" " That." "Like when the objects start to get close together." "That sick feeling." "Like a vibration almost in here." "I've been feeling that for a while now." "I thought it was just nerves." "It's the motel." "All the objects." "The key, the room, everything..." "they all came from this place." " You knew this was here the whole time?" " It's a bad place." "What else don't I know?" "The event happened on May 4, 1961." "1:20 PM." " The event?" " Whatever created these objects." "See, the objects want to be put back together." "You think it was an accident, us meeting?" "You think finding the polaroid was an accident?" "I may have shown you the way, but the objects brought you here." " Where's room 10?" " There is no room 10." "Never existed." "At least not after May 4, 1961." "You know what that is?" "Object chart." "I've seen one before." "What the hell?" "Are...you...him?" " Martin Ruber..." " Yes." "Do you believe in the reunification of god?" "Do you believe in the truth," " the Order, the new religion?" " Yes." "Do you reject your former life?" "Do you give yourself to the Order?" "Yes." "Then pray." "Pray to this object." "What is it?" "It's a piece of god." "Like every other object." "And I want you to pray to it." "If we can reunite all the objects, we can restore the mind of god." "We can communicate with god for the first time in human history." " Do you believe that, Martin?" " Yes." "Yes, I believe." "Then open your eyes and embrace the Order." "Stupid." "Arrogant." "You live only because I was once like you." "But you will learn, Martin." "Thank me for this mercy." "Thank you." "The motel room key is the most important object to the Order right now." "Margaret, I want your group to find Joe Miller and take the key." "We can't have another screw up like Michigan." "Ray Korey's group in New York and Parchman's group in Cleveland will act as support if necessary." "I understand Dr. Ruber knows Joe Miller personally, which is why the job is yours." "I don't think Dr. Ruber's in any kind of shape to help us," " considering his falling out with Miller." " That's exactly why Miller will talk to me." "He'd like to kill me." "There's no such thing as ghosts." "Fine." "I'm just asking you." "You swear you didn't see her?" "Didn't see her." "I don't believe in ghosts, all right?" "Well, yeah, me neither." "I mean, magic bus tickets, sure, but ghosts, no." "Look, I've seen the bus ticket, all right?" "With my eyes seen it." "Well, I saw her." "And whatever she is, she was there." "Here." "Tape that down." " Are you ready?" " Yeah." "Let's go." " I feel stupid." "Do you?" " Just give it a sec." "Great." "The camera's broken." "You know, I might be able to dig it out and fix it." "The key's okay." " Yeah, Miller." " Joe, it's Ruber." "We need to talk..." "about your daughter." "What do you want, Ruber?" " I want to help you get your daughter back." " Yeah?" "Any thoughts about getting Lou back?" "I've joined a group, Joe." "A cabal." "They're called the Order of the reunification." "They believe in the objects." "They want to use them." "Do you have any idea how powerful the objects really are?" "The Order thinks if they can get all the objects back together..." " They can talk to god." " That's insane." "Come with me to the Order." "Give us the key." "If anybody can bring Anna back, we can...together." "Someday, Ruber..." "You're gonna get what's coming to you." "Someday you're gonna need me, Joe." "I've almost got this thing working." "Can you make animal pancakes?" " What kind of animal pancakes you want?" " Elephant." "All right, I don't know how to make an elephant," " but how about a mouse?" " Elephant." "Okay, okay, okay." "I got it, I got it." "All right, wait." "Go back, go back." "Slow it down." "Wow." "She's disintegrating." "You see, somehow the key brings her back just for a few seconds into our..." "time and space." "What's it like for her the rest of the time when she's not in our space?" "I don't know." "But Anna may be trapped in the same place." "I need to find out who she is." " You sure you know where you're going?" " Yes." " How much further?" " I don't know." "Not much." " Doesn't seem like much of a shortcut." " Please don't complain to me now." " Hey, what's the name of this town?" " I don't remember." "Nobody goes there anymore." "Why not?" "You know, the questions get really boring after a while." "I don't know the name of the town, okay?" "Doesn't matter." "What it was a long time ago I don't know..." "You're trespassing." "Sorry." "We didn't know anybody lived here." "We're just heading into the town." "There ain't a town anymore." " Friendly." " That's why I don't like coming here." " Come on." " Just relax." " Where is everybody?" " Exactly." "Make an offer." "What do you think?" "Proud of yourself?" " What's the problem?" " I've been here a couple times." "I..." "I don't like it in there." "Just stick with me a little longer, all right?" "I'll buy you lunch." " Bus station's that way." " Not looking for the bus station." "I'm hungry." "I'd like to eat." "Tell you what." "I'll just have the special." "Turkey, mashed potatoes." " Sounds good." " Some apple pie, coffee, please." " I'll have two of the same." " Two?" " Yeah, two." " See why I don't like this place?" " Relax, okay?" " Anything else?" " Yeah." "I'd like to know about that motel." "What's the matter?" "I can't ask a simple question?" " What happened at that motel?" " Motel's haunted." " What do you mean "haunted"?" " There's these people out of nowhere coming down over the hill thinking they're in hell." "Used to hardly happen at all." "Now it happens all the time." "All right, what about the woman at the motel?" "The woman?" "The ghost?" "Who's seen her?" "Nobody, huh?" "We'll take the rest at the booth." "I know I'm not hallucinating, but I feel like I'm losing it." "You're losing it?" "You see these people?" "They're living a mile and a half from that motel." "It's making them half-crazy, and they don't even know why." "Most people left a while ago, but..." "Uh, they... a lot of them never figured out..." "What?" "There's our ghost." "Hi." "You want to come in?" "Oh..." "I don't think so." " Better?" " Much." "I want to ask you a question." "Do you recognize her?" "No." "Who is she?" "She's a woman I saw at the motel." "The actual motel, room number 9." "What's wrong?" "Joe, don't go back there." " You knew about it?" " You wouldn't understand." "What wouldn't I understand, Jennifer?" "That's the guy from the hospice, isn't it?" "He's my brother." "Drew." "We all have a reason to get rid of the objects." "Drew is my reason." "He became obsessed with room 9." "And whatever happened to him in there..." "Destroyed him." "So, Joe, you promise me you won't go back there." "I am sorry about your brother." "I really am." "But I have to go back, because whatever's happening to that woman could be happening to Anna right now." "So I'm gonna find out the names of everyone in this picture, and hopefully I can talk to one of them." "Because if I can bring that woman back, I can bring Anna back." "I know it." "My brother's research on room 9." "Wow." "Yeah." "Home sweet home." "Jennifer, I..." "You all right?" "Yeah." "Just don't break my heart." "Don't break mine." "Jennifer, get dressed." "We have to go." " What's going on?" " Get everything." "Still here." "Whoever made that print was here in 1961." "I think my brother identified the people on this photo." "These are the collectors." "The woman you saw is the motel manager in 1966." "Arlene Conroy." "Arlene Conroy." " The woman in the picture, right?" " Yeah." "What happened to the rest of them?" "Everyone else is dead." "We need to find out who this belongs to." " Somebody in there?" " Yeah, just working late." " Who's in there?" "Pendergast?" "Yeah, buddy." "I've seen this guy." "I'll be damned." "Who the hell's in there?" "!" "Come on." "Come on, come on, come on." "Who the hell are you?" "Get out of my house!" "Gus Jacobs, I want to know about Arlene Conroy." "I've seen her." "At the motel." " Please, tell me what happened." " I don't know." "I don't know." "I wish to god I could help her." "She's my wife." "My daughter disappeared inside that motel room, same as your wife." " She's only eight years old." " Oh, god." " I'm sorry." " Please help me." "Tell me what happened in room 9." "Do you know how the objects were created?" " Were you and Arlene involved somehow?" " No." "God, no." "How could we?" "We just..." "We just ran the motel." "That's all." "Arlene managed it." "I was a janitor." "It was just a regular place." "It's not like something happened." "It's like, afterward we figured something must've happened." "The motel only has nine rooms, right?" "Except one day Arlene finds the key to room 10." "We tried the key and..." "Well..." "I suppose you know what we saw." "There was still a few objects inside." "I didn't want any of it." "But Arlene got this look in her eye." "She wanted to get all the objects back." "She got some of our friends involved." " Pretty soon we were this group." " The collectors." "By '66, we had found almost all the objects." "And since there wasn't a room 10, Arlene started experimenting in room 9." "And finally she found the watch box." "And that's when everything went wrong." "What do you mean went wrong?" "It's easier if I show you." "This is a copy." "The original was stolen years ago." "She looks the same." "God, she looks exactly the same." "Arlene had been looking for the five objects for years." "She said with the right combination she could open the door the right way." "I think she was insane by then." "Then I'll give her the watch box, and everything went bad." "She opened the door, and it was like..." "Like she opened a tear in reality." " What the hell is happening?" " Gus, was this film spliced together?" "No." "It's one continuous piece of film." "Arlene sacrificed herself to end it." "I saw Arlene a few months later at the motel." "Just for a few seconds." "She begged me to help her." "I couldn't." "I didn't know how." "I got rid of the key and," "I never went back." "I changed names." "Traveled all over." "Eventually I came back." "I guess I just want to be near her." "Gus, what does the box do?" " May I take this film?" " Take it." "I never want to watch it again." "And if you do find my wife, please put her out of her misery." "You're not gonna believe this, Detective." " We had a break-in last night." " Shut up." "Someone came in just to use the fingerprint database." "They logged in under Joe Miller." "Why does Joe still have a login?" "Well, we've got a lot on our plate, Detective." "It's..." "What was he looking for?" "Okay." "Looks like Joe Miller's headed to New Mexico." "I think this must be the box." "Well, if the key brings Conroy back part way, maybe with the box she'll come back all the way." "I don't know." "Something's missing." "How do I get the box?" "If you do this, I'm going in with you." "There's a woman." "She's an object tracker." "She won't deal with the legion, but she might deal with you." "Her name's Suzie Kang." "Who was it referred you again?" "I just heard your name around, that's all." " You work for the legion?" " No." "Good." "Bunch a scumbags." "Always trying to hide the objects from everybody." "It's bad for business." "But they'll get theirs." "I'm on my own." "And I have the key." " You're the new motel man." " Joe Miller." "Yeah, whatever." "Can I see the key?" " Can I point my gun at you?" " I just want to see the key." "Oh damn." "All right, Mr. Guy." "What are you looking for?" "The box." " Well, that is totally ungettable." " Where is it?" "You know, I feel bad for you because you're stupid." "1,000 bucks." "The watch box." "Dampens entropy for a limited radius." "I must've been absent that day." "It prevents things from decaying." "Who has it?" "They call themselves the Order." "Very, very nasty cabal." "Box was their first object." " They based the whole religion around it." " Thank you." " I guess if you were gonna shoot..." " Shut up and listen." "The Order has an object that I need." "The watch box." "Where do they keep it?" " I don't know." " Don't lie to me, Ruber." "You'll never get near it, Joe." " Then close your eyes." " Listen to me, Joe." "You can't get the box, but I can." " I'll get the box for you." " Sit down." "Joe..." "I want to see the motel room again." "I want to go inside." "Why?" "Because when I saw that room..." "I knew that there was something in that room that I was meant to see." "I don't know why, Joe, but I need to see it." "I need to get inside that room." "The only reason that you're alive is because I need that box." "You get the box, you get inside the room." "If I make it out of there in one piece," "I promise I will find a way to wake you up." "Oh, my god, Drew." "The comb." "I wanted to let you know I think I found a way to bring your wife back." "All you'll bring her is pain." "Just let it go, son." "I'm sorry." "I have to give it a try." "Excuse me." " Miller." " Joe, listen." "The last object my brother was missing was the comb." "I got it back from the legion." "I'll be right there." "I have to go." "Joe..." "Arlene didn't disappear the same way your daughter did." "Arlene had the key." "It was the objects that ate her." "It was the objects." "Joe Miller, you're under arrest for the murder of detective Lou Destefano and the kidnapping of Anna Miller." "Want to make a statement?" "Do you want to make a statement?" "Ex-wife, custody battle." "They're gonna put you away and run you up." "Tell me what happened." "I can't do that." "You know me." "You've been to my house." "Our kids play together." "I've seen you with Anna." "You're a good dad." "Okay?" "This isn't you." "Now, let me help you get whoever did this." "Lee, I'm telling you for your girls..." "Drop this case." "What the hell did you get yourself into?" "You know, Lou asked me the same thing, and now he's dead." "And Anna?" "She's alive." "And if I have to rip the world in half to get her back, I will." "Last chance." "Lee!" "Lee!" "Lee, hey!" "Are you alright?" "Lee!" "Get down!" "Sorry." "Get down!" "Do it now!" "Do it now!" "Comply, comply!" "You got the key, Joe?" "Yeah, I got the key, Ruber, and I'm armed." "Stop!" "Put it in park." "Now take the keys out of the ignition." "Now!" "Jennifer, look away!" "He's got the deck of cards." "Put 'em on the dashboard, Ruber, now!" "Get out!" "Get out!" "Up against the van!" "No, no, Joe!" "Give me the watch box!" " Give me the box!" " There it is!" "Joe?" "Joe, take the comb!" "Joe!" "Joe, what are we doing?" "!" "Joe!" "Joe!" "Joe!" "Let me in!" "Arlene!" "Open the box!" "Have you seen a little girl?" "I have lost my daughter." "She is trapped in the room." "Please help me." " Are you him?" " Am I who?" "The man." "The man in the picture!" " Picture?" "What picture?" " Please!" " Make it stop!" " What picture?" " Joe!" " Don't close it!" "Joe, the comb!" "The comb!" "Thank you." "I'm not the man in the picture." "I'm sorry." "I know." "I saw your daughter." "She's waiting for you, Joe." "She said she saw Anna." "I don't understand." " What happened?" " I don't know." "But I think I know what picture she was talking about." " It's this one." " What is that?" "It's the room." "Oh, my god." "Would you move, Ruber?" "This must be exactly how the room was in 1961." "Just before the objects changed." " What was that?" " What?" "What the hell is that?" "It's a man." "There was an occupant in room 10." "Incredible." "Come on." "Let's go." "You can't leave me here, Joe." "I gave you the box." "We had a deal." "Come on, Ruber." "Oh my god." "We're actually in." "The room." "He was right here." "Feel enlightened, Ruber?" "Yes." "Yes, I am." "Objects don't work in the room, Ruber." "He stole it!" "Doesn't matter." "Why?" " The man in the room." " Yeah?" "If I'm right, he's the prime object." "And we're gonna find him."
