(LIGHT EERIE ORCHESTRA MUSIC) (GHOSTLY ANGELIC MUSIC) (SUSPENSEFUL VIOLIN MUSIC) Somebody help me! Somebody help me, help me! (SCREAMS) Somebody help me! (SCREAMS) (LIGHT PIANO MUSIC) So, definitely no parents busting in on us today. No parents are busting in on us. That's what I like to hear. Tell me more about this best babysitting job in the world, then. Yeah, it was freaky. She booked me to do another shift. Well, that's great. No, it's not. It was weird. Why is it weird? I mean it was weird, like it was crazy Mark. I never saw the kid. MARK: So what was you babysitting? I don't even know, and when I asked her anything about her, she was really full on about the rules of house, there were monitors everywhere. Okay, so let me get this straight, so there's monitors in the house, and you don't see the kid. Doesn't sound like a babysitting job to me. I just heard it through the monitors, I never saw it. MARK: Heard what? I don't know, the kid. MARK: Put the kid through what? Just making noises, I don't know, that's what I mean, it was weird, it's not funny, it was kinda creepy. Did it sound like a old man heavy breathing? Like ah, yes. I'm not sure, actually. Oh dear, how do you get yourself in these ridiculous situations, seriously? How have you even survived this long? That is a very good question, I don't know. Don't make me go back there, please. (KNOCKING) I thought you said your parents weren't coming back today. (CHUCKLES) They aren't, it's probably a neighbor, stay here. Come on, last time your dad caught us in shit like this. Calm down. I thought he was gonna kill me. Calm yourself, lie down. (SIGHS) God, every time. (SOFT OMINOUS PIANO MUSIC) What the hell? Hello! (OMINOUS VIOLIN MUSIC) Can you grab me a bottle of wine, please? Not the expensive stuff, just get the cheap stuff. (OMINOUS ORCHESTRA MUSIC) - What's this? - Oh my. (CHUCKLES) SOPHIE: That is not funny. Well, I thought it was hilarious. SOPHIE: Someone left this. Creepy fucker. You know, that literally looks like you as a doll. How funny. (CHUCKLES) I hate you. Look, he's even got, you got a bit, a bit of a scar there on you? Okay, I'll stop. Have you heard of the Legend of Mandy the Doll? Mandy the Doll? Oh, isn't that about that girl who, she got left in a church or something, and some bullies killed her, is that right? No, she wasn't killed by the bullies. She was left there, and she froze to death, and her soul went into the doll that she was clutching onto, have you heard of it? - The doll? - Yeah. (CHUCKLES) Come on. What, and you think this is the same doll? Yeah. How do you know it's the same one? Look at this, it's exactly the same part, there, look at that. Okay, so when was the doll last seen? Like, 10 years ago, a pregnant lady at a car boot sale bought it. It's been 10 years. I'm really freaking out because the lady that I was babysitting for, she had loads of dolls. Heaps of them. Some people have dolls. Yeah, but she cracked it at me when I left, so what if she sent me this? Look, you're just letting your imagination run wild, okay? It's just the guys trying to fuck with us. It's not, think about it, it makes sense, she had creepy dolls in the house, I never saw the kid, she cracked it when I left, and now this turns up on our doorstep. Oh my god, I'm telling you this is literally just a practical joke, okay? Just chill out, like come on. Oh yeah, it looks like mad, don't it? Ooh scary, it's just a doll, okay? (LIGHT SUSPENSEFUL VIOLIN MUSIC) You're being ridiculous. Stop being ridiculous. (PHONE BUZZING) I said to stop calling me. Look, I don't want to babysit for you anymore. Stop calling me. If you don't stop, then I'll call the police. (SUSPENSEFUL PIANO MUSIC) Mark? Mark, what's going on? Soph? (SUSPENSEFUL ORCHESTRA MUSIC) (SIGHS) What are you doing? (CHUCKLES) You wanna get steamy, do ya babe? SOPHIE: Mark! (SCREAMS) (SUSPENSEFUL VIOLIN MUSIC) (OMINOUS ORCHESTRA MUSIC) Mark? Mark, what's going on? Mark, this isn't funny. If you're trying to freak me out, you can seriously stay somewhere else this weekend. Mark? Mark? (GIGGLING) (SCREAMS) Oh my god! (SCREAMS) (GIGGLING) MANDY: Play with me. (SCREAMS) (SUSPENSEFUL ORCHESTRA MUSIC) Oh, you didn't think we'd forget you, did you? I didn't think you were gonna show. Oh, I'm sorry we're late. (SOMBER ORCHESTRA MUSIC) Fuck. Oh, this tastes amazing! Holy shit. Been a while, huh? Do we have any more? I'll fix you something when we get back to the hideout. Hideout? It's complicated, I mean it's not been easy prepping for today. How long have you guys been back together? Don't be like that, I mean, he still likes to drink, he's got clean, we're getting there. I just care about you. It won't be like before. I don't want things to go back to the way the were. I want this to be a start of a new life. Everything's changed. Okay. What's that face for? What are you thinking? Look, to get that new start we just need to do something first. Take this. Here we are. Let's go. I got out hours ago, and you wanna set me up on a job that could send me straight back in? Look, just come on. (SIGHS) CARLY: Amber come on, it's not a hard job. You know what I mean? Carly's done it before. I swear, you go in there and you don't even have to do anything. Amber, listen to me very carefully. We set you up for a babysitting job, go up in there, like you're little miss perfect, soon as the house is free, you call us. We do the work. Fuck sake, Amber. Think about it, it's not like you gotta do shit. What about the kid? You just call the parents, you tell them something came up, and then you get out of there. It's nothing. Oh hey, we stole all your belongings, kid's fine, catch ya later? Yeah, yeah, yeah, something like that. Fuck you! Seriously, can you just give us a minute? Amber. Fresh start, new beginnings, I should have known that you were full of shit. Look, this is gonna be a new start for us, for all three of us. Look, when we found out you were coming out we gave up everything to start again. We've paid off all the dealers, the lenders, I mean, Neil has even sold his PMR30. So? What are you saying? - Boo hoo, Neil sold his gun. - I'm saying. - I went to jail! - I'm saying we're broke. Yeah you went to jail, none of us wanted that. I wished every day that things had ended differently. But look, you're out now, you're in the clear, everything's paid off. Come on, you just do this one final job for fast, unmarked cash then we can go wherever the hell you want. Come on. What's the worst that could happen, huh? Look, I'm not gonna sugar coat it, we rob some rich fucking family, and then Neil's contact comes in and buys it all off us. We get unmarked cash, Amber. We get 50% dollars, 50% Euros, we get three new passports. We can go wherever we want. You always wanted to go to Italy, we could go there. Come on, you need this. Fine. (SOMBER PIANO MUSIC) It's time for us to take control of our lives, can't change our past, but we can change our future. I want to give you the life you deserve. The life Mom should've given you. You know I don't blame you for anything that happened. None of it was your fault. Whoever our mom was, she wasn't a mother to me. You were. You made me the person I am today. You're right, maybe it is time we take control back. (CLAPPING) Yo, yo, yo! Rise and shine, we have a target. Time to suit up. Alright so check it out, some lady, single parent I think, nice sized house, wants you to look after her kid. Anyways, it is perfect. Quiet, little dusty here and there, bit of clutter, but trust me, hell of a lot of shit to sell. This is for you, it's got enough credit to last you tonight, remember to dash away the phones after. Amber, don't be trying to hold onto this shit after tonight. I can't have him having any way of tracking this back to us. Make sure you call us an hour after she leaves, and we're done by midnight. The fuck, am I talking to myself here? She heard you. Is that right? I heard you. Good. Oh, your profile says Jessie. So I'd use that name unless you wanna risk getting thrown back inside. Alright, it's about that time. Let's do this. (ANXIOUS ORCHESTRA MUSIC) All right, so her name's Dorothy O'Brien, okay? She lives alone, and she's got one child. What kind of stuff do you want me to look for? All right, you just leave that to us. You just go in there, and well do the rest. You ready? Let's get this over with. Let's go! (SIGHS) (SUSPENSEFUL PIANO MUSIC) (KNOCKING) Ms. O'Brien? It's Jessie, the sitter. Hello? Hello. You must be Jessie. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have just walked into your house like that. I'm assuming it was you who let me in. Oh, that will be Mandy. Just after I've settled her to sleep. You go in the dining room, and I'll go up and check on Mandy, I'll be right back. Okay. DOROTHY: That's it Mandy, that's it. Look, I should be back soon, okay? I should be back soon, a nice young girl is downstairs. I know, I know. Shush, shush, it's fine Mandy. All is going to be just fine. That's it, sleep tight. (GIGGLING) I've put together a little list for you, house rules, so we can get the best of Mandy's moods. The attic is completely off limits, that's Mandy's play area. She absolutely hates being left alone, so you're not to leave the house under any circumstances, you don't go in the garden, - you don't answer the door, - Of course. you don't have a cigarette. Of course, I won't. You see, Mandy tends to cry a lot, and if Mandy is to waken, there's no getting her back to sleep. I've provided a monitor for you, so you can hear everything that's happening in the room. I've also provided this visual monitor, which registers any movement in the room. After all, we don't want Mandy out of bed running around, do we? Or anyone else in the room. She tends to sleep quite well at night, and as I've managed to get her off to sleep, she should be fine for the night. If there is any problem, you are to call me immediately. You see, if Mandy were to wake, she is to cry. If she is to cry, I shall have to return home. There is no stopping her once Mandy starts to cry, do you understand? Sure, I got it. Don't go in her room, and if she's to wake or cry, to give you call. You make it sound so much simpler than it truly is. (LAUGHS) She's just a kid, right? She is a special girl. Anyway, must go. Tonight, where are you going? A gathering. I shouldn't be home much after midnight, I shouldn't think. Time to go. Just checking, Mandy, she does know I'm here right? Of course she knows. She knows all about you Jessie. How old is she? I thought it was rather rude to ask a woman's age. (CHUCKLES) Oh, right. You have my number on the information sheet, I shall have my phone by my side all evening. Don't hesitate to call, if necessary. Of course. Have a nice nice, Ms. O'Brien. See you soon. Okay. (OMINOUS ORCHESTRA MUSIC) (HUMMING) MANDY: Shh. Don't go in the attic, remember, don't go in the attic. (PEACEFUL ORCHESTRA MUSIC) (SUSPENSEFUL PIANO MUSIC) (SUSPENSEFUL ORCHESTRA MUSIC) (OMINOUS FLUTE MUSIC) (DISTORTED GHOSTLY VOICE) (OMINOUS ORCHESTRA MUSIC) (GASPS) (HUMMING) (GIGGLING) MANDY: Come up and play with me. (SUSPENSEFUL ORCHESTRA MUSIC) Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god, oh my god. (WHIMPERS) Hey babe, what'd I tell you about trying to put your fucking toes up my ass. What? What are you talking about? What? Fuck off, I didn't say shit. (PHONE RINGING) Why is fucking Amber ringing us? Amber? The child, the child's gone. Someone's been in the house. Carly, fuck! Amber, calm down, calm down, what do you mean she's gone? I heard a voice, a lady's voice on the monitor, someone must've sneaked in when I was asleep, and taken her. Carly, fuck, I'm gonna have to call Ms. O'Brien, Carly, fuck! Okay right away, call her straight away, we'll be there in 20 minutes. What the fuck's going on? Please go, go, go, go. (SIGHS) Come on. Come on, come on. MS. O'BRIEN: Hi Jessie, how's it going there? Ms. O'Brien, I think you need to come home. - What's happened? - Oh my god. (SIGHS) It's Mandy, I think that someone must have taken her. I'm so, so sorry Ms. O'Brien. MS. O'BRIEN: What do you mean Mandy is gone? She can't have just gone. Haven't you checked the house? Yeah! Yeah, she's not in her bed. All that's in her bed is just this, just this doll. O'BRIEN: Mandy should be in the bed. She has strawberry blonde hair, and a pretty white dress. She should be in the bed. Are you sure she isn't in bed, Jess? (OMINOUS BASS MUSIC) Strawberry blonde hair. White dress. She's the girl in the photo with you by the side of her bed? MS. O'BRIEN: Mandy, yes, that's her, that's my Mandy. Yes! Yes. Ms. O'Brien, I see the photo, I see Mandy. She's in the bed, and she's sleeping. I'm so sorry, Ms. O'Brien, I messed up, have a great night. MS. O'BRIEN: Call me if you need me, and try not to scare me half to death again, please. (CHUCKLES) (SOMBER ORCHESTRA MUSIC) (LAUGHS) (SUSPENSEFUL ORCHESTRA MUSIC) (HUMMING) (GROANS) (KNOCKING) Come on! It's fine, it's fine. The child, it's not a child. Oh my god, this is creepy. Check out the photo. The fuck is this? (LAUGHS) You taking the piss? This crazy bitch ain't gonna realize none of her shit's missing. This is perfect! I mean, this is something else. Something else? Babe, this is fucking incredible. (LAUGHS) Let's do this, honestly. Come on, we never had it this perfect before. Let's just get what we need and get out of here. Yeah, yeah, we gotta wait for Diane though. Diane? Oh, she's the contact from the network, she's the one who's gonna buy all this shit. Are you serious? What time is she coming? Ms. O'Brien said she was gonna be back my midnight, it's already like nine! Alright, chill with that shit, alright? She'll be here before then, okay? She's gonna keep me updated. Let us go and investigate the shit out of this place. Come on. (LIGHT SUSPENSEFUL PIANO MUSIC) (SIGHS) I'm gonna be so loaded. Never thought she'd have this much shit, you know? Label that as high priority. I'm gonna go get a drink. (DISTORTED GHOSTLY VOICE) Did you guys hear that? How do I look? Fucking hot. (GASPS) (CHUCKLES) Too much time inside, I'm going crazy. (OMINOUS ORCHESTRA MUSIC) (HUMMING) MANDY: Why did you leave me? (GASPS) (CRYING) Hello? MANDY: I don't like being alone. Who is that? MANDY: I wanna play a game. Will you play with me? Who is that? MANDY: You know who it is. Hello? Mandy? (SIGHS) Take this shit downstairs for Diane. I'm gonna go check out the attic. (LOW OMINOUS ORCHESTRA MUSIC) Fucking shit blood. Are you there?

I wanna be your friend. MANDY: You do? That's why I took this job. MANDY: Then why did you lie? (WHIMPERS) I didn't lie. MANDY: You said your name was Jessie. You are a naughty babysitter.

I tried to change her ways, I tried to change her ways every time, but after what happened. What the fuck is going on? The children locked her in the church, and left her there for a week. (SCREAMS) No one knew, because the church was being repaired, and froze to the death in the church. The priest found her. I'm so sorry. How did you even get her? Mandy was passed down my family from generation to generation. All of us knowing that her soul was still trapped inside the doll. MANDY: Look in the bag. What bag? MANDY: On the floor. Look what they were doing. AMBER: No. Please no, that's not what you think. Ms. O'Brien, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. I let you into my house to look after Mandy, and you steal from me!

It's gonna be great. It's beautiful. This is gonna be a new start for both of us, I think it's what we need, don't you? Yeah, it'd be good to have a fresh outlook on life. Look, loosing a baby is very difficult. We'll get you through it. Just remember that you're my baby, and I wanna look after you. Thanks, Mom. (SOMBER ORCHESTRA MUSIC) (OMINOUS ORCHESTRA MUSIC) SUZANNE: Ra! (gasps) (LAUGHS) Mom! Oh come on, you're supposed to be helping me. What have you got there? Oh my god, what is that? It's like when I got Rebecca. Alright, you've got to stop doing this, relating everything back to what's happened. It's a new start, leaving the past behind, remember? Yeah. This, I hope you didn't get her anything like this. This is ghastly, look at it. Why has grandad got that? I don't know. He used to give dolls out, I think, when we were younger, but I don't remember this one. It's creepy. Yeah. Best place for this. (GASPS) The best place for this, is the bin. Come on, let's go look somewhere else. I think you need to get this door sorted. (OMINOUS BASS MUSIC) (GIGGLING) Mom? (GIGGLING) (SUSPENSEFUL ORCHESTRA MUSIC) Mom? (GIGGLING) Mom? Mom? Mom?
