"fellas?" "Where were you?" "I stopped by to give you a lift." "Had things to do." "How's the party?" "Don't know." "Just got here." "boys let's drop in." "yeah." "Tyler!" "Caleb." "It's not like it's gonna kill us yet." "So give me the scoop." "Who's here?" "The first thing you have to know is that Aaron Abbot is a prick." "Treats girls like dirt." "Okay." "Who's that?" "The new guy." "He's looking over here." "but I intend to find out." "He's cute." "who's that chick with Kate?" "Sarah something." "She transferred in from a Boston public." "She's kind of hot." "Caleb." "They're here." "Who are they?" "The Sons of Ipswich." "Kate." "Caleb." "Hi." "You're late." "I had a thing with the family." "Who's this?" "My new roommate." "Tyler Simms" "Reid Garwin." "Reid Garwin." "Good evening." "Good evening." "Sarah's my grandmother's name." "You kind of remind me of her." "Caleb Danvers." "And you don't bring my grandmother to mind in any way." "Good." "Sarah." "Caleb." "Kira." "How was your summer?" "I'm Kira." "Sarah." "right." "From the Boston public." "how does one go about getting into Spenser from a public?" "Kira?" "Why don't you give it a rest?" "Aaron." "I'm sure you don't." "You posers make me wanna puke." "let it go." "I think you owe Kira an apology." "I think Kira owes Sarah the apology." "You were being kind of bitchy." "Disgusting!" "You idiot!" "Dylan just called." "He said he saw three cop cars headed this way on Old Dell Road." "let's roll!" "Let's go." "boys." "Let's go!" "Sarah drove us out here." "Will I see you back at the dorms?" "It's getting late." "I'm just gonna crash." "Call me in the morning?" "I could use a lift." "No problem." "nice going back there." "Caleb." "Chase." "Thought that guy and I were about to go at it." "His friend's puking sure came at an opportune time." "though?" "yeah." "Hop in my truck." "Good night." "I got room." "Who needs a ride?" "let's go." "We gotta go before the cops come." "man." "Reid." "My car won't start!" "Hop in with us." "I can't just leave it here!" "I could fix it for you." "boys." "man." "Try it again." "Thank you!" "Gotta bolt." "Move over." "It's my car." "baby boy." "Now!" "No sweat." "We gotta pull over." "You wanna stop?" "That'll impress Harvard." "what the hell?" "Let's lose them." "Cut across Marblehead." "We might as well have some fun." "Lose them!" "Step on it." "Go!" "Stupid kids." "you ready?" "Caleb." "It's gonna take all of us." "they don't know." "Hit the horn." "Hit the horn!" "they're going over." "Harry Potter can kiss my ass!" "Stop the car!" "Stop the car!" "Son of a bitch." "We must be the last ones in." "this is us." "my God!" "Hate those things." "And they're all over the place here." "Thank you." "See?" "Chivalry's not dead after all." "it just transferred in." "We're gonna go into town tomorrow for some things." "Do you need to pick up any stuff?" "Sure." "I'm in 311." "Call me." "Okay." "huh?" "Listen to you." "Thanks for the ride." "All right." "Take it easy." "man." "Call me in the morning." "You're home early." "Mother." "What are you still doing up?" "Thinking about my baby turning 18 this week." "God." "You look so much like him in this light." "he was a year younger than you when we met." "Did I ever tell you that?" "Yeah." "You've told me." "let's get you up to bed." "So handsome." "He was the most beautiful man I'd ever seen." "I'm so afraid I'll lose you like I did him." "How many times do I need to tell you that I'm not him?" "That's the same thing he said about his father." "these powers that you and your friends developed when you were 13 are nothing compared with what you'll get when you ascend." "They are 1000 times stronger." "Caleb." "They are so seductive." "You'll suddenly think the world is yours for the taking." "And then you really start to use and use aging each time." "Taking bits of your life until there is nothing left." "I won't." "That's what he said." "I can't lose you both." "I won't survive it this time." "I won't." "So why do you call them "the Sons of Ipswich"?" "a boy band?" "You know what?" "I like you." "You're funny." "Not like all the other stuck up bitches." "No." "They're supposedly descendants of five families that settled the Ipswich Colony in the 1600s." "Old money." "Caleb and Reid were both checking you out tonight." "I'd go for Caleb." "Why?" "He's just one of those majorly good guys." "how do you mean?" "He could stay here and party with the rest of us but he stays at home to take care of his mom." "What's wrong with her?" "she became a bit of an alcoholic." "So is he seeing anyone?" "So we are interested." "So who's the fifth?" "Fifth what?" "you said five families." "They say the fifth was killed during the witch hunt." "huh?" "Or creepy." "Couldn't see nothing but their taillights in the damn fog." "But I swear to God it sure seemed like they went right off the damn cliffs." "What you were probably looking at were the aircraft warning lights on the Marblehead lighthouse." "we have a suspect vehicle with occupant back near the Dells." "Respond and advise." "but he's passed out cold." "Doors are all locked." "Go ahead and call it in." "We're gonna need a tow." "kid!" "Open up!" "Give me your flashlight." "Break out the rear window." "Son." "Somebody there?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "my God." "Didn't mean to scare you." "my God." "Just got back." "Sorry." "I'm just a little freaked out." "It felt like someone was watching me in the showers." "shall we?" "It's okay." "Don't see anyone." "see you." "What makes you think it was Reid?" "It's always him." "I've never felt it when one of us used The Power." "Have you?" "maybe it's because you're so close to ascending." "I don't know." "Maybe." "it was strong enough to wake me out of a dead sleep." "He's only using his powers to piss you off man." "just Jesus!" "Caleb?" "Caleb?" "Pick up." "man." "what's going on?" "I just saw a darkling." "It was in the form of that dead kid they found at the Dells." "I saw his picture this morning in the newspaper." "But who'd send you a darkling?" "I have no idea." "Something's wrong." "I can feel it." "We gotta talk to Reid tonight." "He'll probably be at Nicky's." "We'll see him then." "Definitely." "Caleb." "Thanks." "Caleb." "Kate." "What are you up to?" "I'm just stocking up our room." "I did." "Did you know him?" "he just transferred in." "I heard he lived on Reid and Tyler's floor." "Hi." "Hi there." "You scared me." "man." "Hey." "I'm gonna see if Pogue wants to catch that new Brad Pitt flick this afternoon." "Who else wants to go?" "I will." "I gotta run some errands for my mother." "I already saw it." "Do you feel like running errands?" "Sure." "I wish I'd brought my camera." "This place is so beautiful." "That's the old Putnam barn." "What's left of it." "was the original Ipswich Colony." "what brought you to Spenser?" "A scholarship." "But why Spenser?" "I want to go to Harvard." "My father was class of '81." "That's so cool." "Kate told me he passed away." "You and Kate talk about me?" "just girl stuff." "It's our family's first colony house." "Gorman." "Gorman!" "It's me!" "It's okay!" "He doesn't see that well anymore." "You think?" "Who's with you?" "Just a friend." "okay?" "Okay." "Caleb." "Gorman." "Is there anything else he needs?" "No." "then." "I'm okay." "So you wanna shower or change first?" "For what?" "We're going to Nicky's." "What's Nicky's?" "Hey." "How are you?" "baby!" "You missed a great movie." "I had to get my bike fixed." "That's cool." "Chase hung out and kept me company." "I'll just bet he did." "man?" "It's all good." "You want something to eat?" "I'll just pick at whatever you're having." "fries and a Coke?" "Corner pocket." "Great shot." "well" "How long you guys been here?" "A bit." "and Would you look at that?" "lace." "that girl hasn't worn panties since she was 12." "boys." "Keep the change." "Next time." "huh?" "Families are real close." "We kind of grew up together." "We're kind of like brothers." "That must have been nice." "The best two out of three." "Okay." "Chase." "Mind if I get in a game?" "yeah." "Sure." "Reid and Tyler are here." "Where?" "Pool tables." "With Aaron and the boys." "Great." "That's trouble." "So Caleb tells me you guys are swimmers." "Spenser's best." "State finals twice." "I swam for Hastings." "I was their freestyle man." "You won't be here." "That's Caleb's swim." "what just happened?" "What?" "having fun and now we're watching them have fun." "That's what girls do." "You know boys and their toys." "Give me a quarter." "Why?" "Just give me a quarter." "I'll show you what girls do." "Thank you." "it was a pleasure." "What?" "Blow me!" "Let's take it outside." "Come on." "it's Reid and Tyler." "Grab my jacket." "You guys need help?" "Just stay with the girls." "Reid!" "man." "dickhead." "You bet him he couldn't and he did." "so if you don't like it" "What's the problem?" "and I did." "ladies." "Nicky." "What were you thinking?" "We were just playing them." "Caleb." "They were suckers for it." "Why don't you quit being such a pussy?" "I'm not finished with you yet." "stop." "What will it take for you to get it?" "you moron!" "You've seen what it can do if you abuse it." "You want that?" "That's your business." "you risk exposing us all." "And that I won't let happen." "My power's greater than yours." "Not until you ascend." "tough guy." "Stop it!" "This is crazy." "It's for his own good!" "Keep using like you did tonight and last night you'll be as good as dead." "So I fixed her car." "Big deal!" "Reid!" "I'm talking later and you know it." "The hell I do!" "I didn't use later." "Caleb." "Tell it to Reid." "Reid's lying." "It had to have been him." "How do you know?" "Because it wasn't you." "Tyler doesn't have the balls to lie to me." "Hey." "Hey." "You okay?" "Yeah." "I'm fine." "Let's go." "let's get out of here." "Thanks again for a great day." "I had fun." "me too." "I'm sorry about Gorman." "He's just not used to seeing me with anyone." "I think I'll survive." "you're the only girl I've ever taken out there." "Really?" "Yeah." "And why is that?" "I'm not sure just yet." "Good night." "Good night." "wake up!" "Yeah." "I just saw the same darkling you saw last night." "That dead kid at the Dells." "What the hell is it?" "I don't know." "It's starting to freak me out." "someone's using powers and I mean bigtime." "And I intend to find out who." "Hey." "Hi." "Good morning." "Mr. Danvers" "Provost Higgins requests the pleasure of your company after class." "We're going to study four American contemporary writers of fiction." "then Tim O'Brien and last but not least" "Stephen King." "Yeah!" "Dreamcatcher was the shit!" "but no." "My choice is The Shining." "This is not the kind of publicity this institution is interested in." "Mr. Danvers?" "sir." "But you would know about a fight at a local bar last night." "if I could And if I'm correct" "Chase Collins was with you?" "sir." "Chase Collins comes to us with a brilliant academic record and his family trust has made a generous endowment to this institution." "I want to make sure he has a positive experience at Spenser." "sir." "Good." "I understand you and Chase have already bonded and I would appreciate it if you would continue make sure his stay here is a pleasant one." "Caleb." "Sir?" "No more fights." "sir." "What is that?" "Caleb's family history." "Did you know that the witchcraft thing started here in Ipswich?" "he just tells me it's all nonsense." "what did the provost want?" "Someone told him about the fight at Nicky's." "Feel like elaborating on that?" "You got a piece of glass in your face." "Hold on." "dude." "fag?" "That thing between your legs." "only smaller." "Aaron!" "Aaron." "Size isn't everything." "My man." "Up for some foosball?" "but I think I can hang out for a while." "man." "I'm cool." "You're being ridiculous!" "What is your problem?" "are you jealous?" "he is just a friend." "right." "I'm sure he's interested in just being friends." "This is beyond idiotic." "Thanks for dinner." "How about Saturday?" "What about Saturday?" "Fall Fest." "Just wondering if you wanted to go with me." "it happens to be my birthday." "I don't know." "I'd love to go with you." "you should." "I know what you mean." "I'm really gonna go." "This is me leaving." "Good night." "Good night." "Sleep tight." "I hate him when he's like this." "He's been jealous since the day we met." "It drives me crazy." "You don't hate Pogue." "You guys are perfect for each other." "Maybe not." "Maybe it's time to check out something new." "And maybe that's what Pogue's picking up on." "This is the eighth time he's called." "So talk to him." "No." "Not until he stops being an idiot." "I'll bet Caleb's not the jealous type." "Go for it!" "man!" "Pogue!" "He really is good." "He's the best." "I hear you swim a mean freestyle." "That's what they tell me." "Let's see what you got." "Let's go!" "Push off!" "Let's go!" "man?" "There you are." "Had us going there for a second." "Whacked your head pretty good." "Chase was there to get you out before you sucked up the pool." "He also whipped your ass." "It became apparent that the view of civil liberties needing no special protection was not widely shared." "Come in." "Thank you." "10 eventually ratified." "Ms. Snider?" "The Bill of Rights." "Right you are." "Mr. Simms." "you're wanted in the provost's office." "Mr. Simms." "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof or of the press or the right of the people peaceably to assemble" "come in." "You know one of our students lost his life a few nights back at the Dells." "I heard." "sir." "Why?" "His car was returned to his parents." "His mother was kind enough to send this back to us." "My student ID." "I lost it that night." "It was in the back seat." "That's odd." "I wonder how he got it." "sir." "You're welcome." "I understand you've become close with Caleb and his friends." "sir." "I agree." "You couldn't have picked a better bunch." "I think so too." "Am I gonna see you tonight?" "I hope so." "okay?" "I'll be in my room." "Okay." "What'd she say about Kate?" "Why won't she call me back?" "She's still pissed at you." "Why are we doing this?" "I saw the darkling again." "but why break into the admissions office?" "Because I wanna know more about Chase Collins." "I don't even like the guy." "Are you sure you're not just imagining this?" "his eyes were as black as night in the pool today." "All right." "how sick is she?" "She came in complaining of chills and a headache." "she had a 101 degree temperature." "What could it be?" "The doctor's checking her now." "We'll call you when we know more." "It's okay." "I'm coming over there." "They died in a car accident." "It says Chase's father just lost control." "His real name was Pope." "1988." "The Collins adopted him after his mother died when he was 2 years old." "When did you say his birthday was?" "July 14th." "That's the same day his adoptive parents died." "What year was he born?" "1988." "They died on his 18th birthday." "Why are you taking her to the hospital at Gloucester?" "Her temperature's jumped to 105 and she's showing symptoms of anaphylactic shock." "What does that mean?" "It's a severe allergic reaction." "To what?" "We're not sure." "It's as if she'd been bitten by hundreds of insects." "Like spiders." "Goodwin Pope." "Goodwin Pope." "Goodwin." "Goodwin Pope." "Agnes Goodwin Pope." "That's where I've heard it before." "What are you talking about?" "The Book of Damnation." "They used to call her Goody Pope." "Do you remember her?" "I haven't read the Book since we were kids." "Just call Reid and Tyler." "I told them everything." "what we found in his file" "It's a list of names who brought charges against John Putnam and his family during the Salem hunt." "Pope was one of them." "Goody Pope." "mother to Hagen." "So what?" "So she claims that John Putnam came to her as an incubus in her dreams after she was widowed." "The Book also records births and deaths during the damnation." "1692." "1693." "That's 10 months and 24 days later." "If what you're saying is true and Hagen Pope is the bastard son of John Putnam then the fifth bloodline in the Covenant didn't end in Salem." "And Chase is one of us." "That's crazy." "He can't be." "The night after the party at the Dells someone was using." "The Power was strong enough to wake me." "it happened again." "I felt it then." "See?" "I told you." "I felt it too." "were you lying?" "No." "You swear?" "I swear." "Then it was him." "Kate's been attacked." "wait." "What?" "They say it's like she's been bitten by spiders and I had this terrible nightmare about spiders." "Caleb." "Something weird is happening." "listen." "I want you to go back to your dorm and wait for me there." "okay?" "Okay." "He's put a spell on Kate." "What are you talking about?" "What kind of spell?" "Creation." "Spiders." "They're taking her to a hospital in Gloucester." "Don't do anything until we know what he wants." "We're talking about Kate!" "have we?" "you're too late." "A spider came and sat down beside her and frightened Miss Muffet away." "and I'll kill you." "Hurt her?" "I only used her to get to you." "It's you that I'm gonna hurt." "And you're just my bait to get to Caleb." "These are her things." "Why don't you go back to the dorm and get some sleep?" "I'll call you." "Hey." "What's wrong?" "Have you seen Pogue?" "but I called him and told him about Kate." "how is she?" "Not so good." "But they said they'd call if there are any changes." "Maybe this is him." "Pogue's been in an accident." "Stop right there." "Close the door." "Let's just keep this between the Sons of Ipswich." "Don't hurt her." "She has nothing to do with this." "my friend." "You can't imagine what it was like growing up not knowing what this was." "he filled in all the missing pieces." "But it was too late." "I was hooked." "he was such a bitter old man young man." "that all he wanted to do was end the suffering." "Like all our bloodline before us he was more than willing to break the laws of your sacred little club." "So I got him to give me his share of The Power." "And he died knowing that his son was going to get revenge on your Covenant." "and she'll die." "I know." "what do you want?" "Want?" "I'm Chase Collins." "I have everything I could possibly want." "It's what I need." "More power." "birthday boy at the exact moment when you ascend" "be at Putnam Barn where you will will me your power." "and I'll let her live." "Reid and Tyler and your mom and what's left of the families." "And don't think I won't kill them." "It comes natural to me." "Just ask my adoptive parents." "You killed that kid at the Dells." "he caught me doing a little magic." "well he just wouldn't leave it alone." "So I caught a ride with him over to the bonfire." "What are you doing?" "Just making sure I'm making my point." "Do you see my problem here?" "I like to use." "A lot." "Only no one ever told me about the effects and the damage." "The addiction." "don't we?" "So the way I see it" "I add your power to what I already have." "It won't stop the aging." "Your father obviously found out the hard way." "My father never had this kind of power." "It doesn't work like that." "not the power." "Just think of yourself as a sacrificial lamb." "Hell you're already their golden boy." "Why not go out a real hero?" "the barn." "Where it all started." "A birthday party." "Just you and me." "It's either you or them" "brother." "Don't leave her like that." "She'll die." "What happened?" "You passed out when I told you What?" "Pogue's been in an accident." "Is he okay?" "take it easy." "What?" "Stay away." "He's more powerful than you can imagine." "don't worry." "Don't worry about that." "We can't stop him." "How is he?" "He's hurt pretty bad." "Where's Sarah?" "Waiting room." "I say we all go after Chase." "Right now." "it may not be that easy." "You guys stay here with Pogue." "Call me if there's a change." "How's Pogue?" "He's not good." "What about Kate?" "Have you heard anything?" "but she's still really sick." "look me in the eye and tell me the truth." "The spiders." "I read about them." "They're one of the charges against John Putnam." "aren't they?" "I wanna show you something and then I'll explain everything." "Don't be afraid." "What about your caretaker?" "It'll be okay." "What are you doing?" "It's all right." "Gorman." "It's okay." "my father." "He's 44 years old." "the bloodlines produce only one:" "The eldest male." "And you've always had this power?" "in a way." "and our powers fully mature and it's seductive." "couldn't." "I'll ascend." "And what if you don't will him your share?" "He's already got his father's." "It makes him very powerful." "And what if someone wills you their share?" "I wouldn't let them." "Why not?" "When one ascends" "The Power becomes your life." "That's why it ages you." "and you die." "you cannot do this alone." "We have to go to the others." "including you." "Pogue was the final warning." "We have to go to your father." "No." "and you know what'll happen." "But he loves you." "he'll die with that secret." "changing." "You should never have involved her." "You're right." "But I can't change the past all of you and it's going to stop." "I want you to take Sarah to the dance." "I'll meet you there." "I don't think he'll try anything in the open." "Would you just let us help you?" "You know we've got your back." "I know you do." "do what I ask." "my dear." "Ready?" "Yeah." "Why can't I go with you?" "I won't risk you." "I'm scared." "Don't be." "I'll see you soon." "You better." "I promise." "Be careful." "I'll call you." "any sign of him?" "No." "I'm on my way." "If he does show please promise me you won't do anything stupid." "she's fine." "Hang on." "what's going on?" "Caleb?" "Caleb?" "you know." "Something's happened." "You know" "I'm just getting the feeling that you're not gonna keep up your end of the bargain so I took out a little insurance policy." "She does look quite stunning." "and she dies." "time's running out for Sarah." "So why don't we get down to business?" "Witchy." "wait." "witch"?" "All right." "Tell you what." "I'll make this easy for you." "How about an accident?" "You lose control of your car on the way to the pathetic little dance." "Trust me." "I'm good at car accidents." "Everyone'll miss you." "They'll say great things about you." "Only the Covenant will know the real truth." "you'll become a legend." "The one who gave his life for them." "and I let you live out your life?" "How about I make you my "weyotch"?" "I'll never will you my power." "Then it looks like trouble for Sarah." "I'll never let that happen." "Fine." "Let's do it your way." "Like taking candy from a baby." "Easy as pie." "You find her?" "No." "Twelve minutes past 11." "Caleb." "Are we ascending?" "Finally!" "Caleb this new power you get when you ascend?" "I don't think you're cut out for it." "So why don't we just call it a night?" "Just say the words." "I'm a little impressed." "Not bad." "Thanks." "huh?" "You ready to say uncle?" "I'm ready for you to go to hell." "Gorman." "Just say the words." "and it's all over." "William." "I need you to understand me." "Come on!" "Say it!" "Say the words!" "I" "I "will you will you" "nothing." "He is your son." "think of someone other than yourself." "I will" "you my power." "We searched the entire area." "We didn't find anybody." "How can that be?" "Where is he?" "I don't know." "Subtitles ßy MühàmmáÐ Ü§mâñ"
