[film reel ticking] [piano music] [rain falling] Do you want to hear a story? Do you want me to tell you about the Wildling? His teeth are long and sharp like this. And so are his nails. Long and sharp like this. And his hair is long and black. All over his whole body. [thunder rumbling] Do you wanna hear more? No. Okay. You're my special little berry. [instrumental music] [door locking] [instrumental music] [loud thunder] [crow cawing] [music continues] [crow cawing] [loud thud] [footsteps approaching] [door opening] Good morning, Anna. Good morning, Daddy. I'm gonna listen to your heart and I'm gonna tell you to breathe. Okay now. [inhales] Breathe in. Okay. [clock ticking] [footsteps] The men are getting worried. They don't see you around anymore. Hunt's over. Sure, but that don't mean you can just disappear. Roger, I'm retired. Alright. I'll see yo.. I'm sorry the door gave you a sting. I told you about that. It's made so that the Wildling will get hurt if he tries to get in. Why does he wanna get in? Because you're the last one left. He ate all the other children. Who was that today? I heard someone talking. There is no one. There is only Anna and daddy. Anna and daddy. There is only Anna and daddy. But only daddy can go outside because Anna is too small. Anna must always stay inside. Anna must stay inside. [instrumental music] Happy birthday to you Happy birthday dear Anna Close your eyes. Okay, now open. I plucked him from the berry-bush. [instrumental music] "Was evident "that the youngster had become so accus -- - Accustomed. - "Accustomed.. To the marvelous.." One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.. Seven, eight, nine, ten. [instrumental music] He's in a better place. I'm gonna take him to where I plucked him and I'm going to bury him there and then after a while a bush will grow out of him and then when the spring comes it'll grow new berries. And Dusty will grow back? Yes, but it will be a new Dusty. [clock ticking] [instrumental music] [music continues] [growling] What's wrong with me? You're sick. [door opening] Anna, this is medicine and Daddy needs to see your tummy. Good girl. Now Daddy is gonna put the medicine in your tummy and it's gonna sting, okay? Anna, close your eyes. Now, one two.. ...three. Good girl. We're gonna have to do this every day. [flies buzzing] [instrumental music] [sighs] Hey, Anna. Anna. It's your birthday. Don't you wanna count your bears? Daddy... can.. Can you take me to the better place? Maybe a bush will grow out of me. [instrumental music] [sighs] [music continues] [sobbing] [gun cocks] [music continues] You'll close your eyes.. ...and you'll go to sleep. Then there will be nothing. [gun cocks] [gunshot] [machine beeping] No. [indistinct chatter] Very good, we're pushing 1000 milligrams. [indistinct chatter] [gasping] [indistinct chatter] [panting] [instrumental music] [music continues] Hi. It's okay. I'm here to help you. I'm the one who found you. Your neighbors called me to report a gunshot. Sheriff Ellen Cooper. I have a few questions to ask you. Would that be okay? Yeah? What's your name? Anna. Anna. It's nice to meet you, Anna. What's your last name? Anna. [door opens] Officer.. ...can I talk with you for a minute? You sit tight. We detected a high concentration of Leuprorelin in her system. One more day and we probably would've lost her. What's that? It's typically used to treat endometriosis uterine fibroids, or conditions such as paraphilia. Thing is, she's got none of those. In fact, we couldn't find anything to justify this kind of treatment. Do you think he was poisoning her? Uh, it's a pretty heavy drug with a wide range of drastic side effects, but it is very efficient at down-regulating the secretion of estrogen in a woman's body. There is no evidence of any menstrual cycle at all. I think whoever did this to her wants to slow down her maturity. That's fucked up. Yeah, I'll leave you to it. - Thank you, doctor. - Yeah. Anna.. I'm gonna undo these straps for you, okay? It's okay. Just gonna undo these straps. Like that. It's okay. There you go. Where's Daddy? Is he in the better place? [instrumental music] [music continues] Good morning, everyone. So the doctors have told me what a bright young girl you are and how well you've responded over the past week to all their crazy tests. I bet you're just about ready to get out of here, huh? Well, we think you're ready to move on too. So the Belington House is a wonderful place. They have a wide variety of special therapeutic programs designed for girls just like you and it's a lot more fun than a hospital. Excuse me, I'm sorry to interrupt, but I gotta say locking her up again doesn't really sound like the right strategy here. With all due respect, sheriff I think we can trust Dr. Rooney's expertise. We haven't even received the DNA results yet. It seems a little bit premature -- I was just explaining to our patient, the Belington House -- I'm gonna go with her! Well, uh.. We'll see about that. [engine revving] So you're gonna be with me until your DNA results come in. DNA is something that we use to identify any relatives that you might have. [indistinct chatter] Until then I'm gonna be responsible for you. You okay with that? You don't like my driving? We're going less than 20 miles an hour. It's safe. I mean, not in, in general. If, you know, for example if you're driving under the influence, but... I don't drink so no need to worry about that. You don't drink? Not anymore. You must be very thirsty. [laughs] [instrumental music] Not many vegetarians in this town. [indistinct laughter] [indistinct chatter] [horn honking] Little shit. What are you thinking? Come on, let's go. You wanna stay away from guys like that. [indistinct radio chatter] [door opens] You hungry? I'm not a great cook, but I know what goes with ketchup. [chuckles] Pretty good, huh? Who's this? Anna, this is Ray. Ray, this is Anna the girl that I was telling you about from the hospital. Why is she wearing my clothes? Because she's our guest and because she needed something to wear. You never wear that shirt anyway, so why do you care. What happened to your head? It's none of your fuckin' business. Excuse me, language, young man. Are you his daddy? [chuckles] No, I'm not his daddy. I'm his sister. Only men can be daddies and women are moms. Everyone has them. Whether you like it or not. [eerie sounds] I'm sorry it smells a bit musty in here because we don't use this room very often. Okay, here you go. [instrumental music] Well if you, uh, you need anything I'm, I'm just across the hall, okay? Okay? Can we close it? Are you cold? The Wildling. What's a Wildling? He eats children. Oh. Did your daddy tell you that? Have you ever seen him, a Wildling? In my dreams. Listen, Anna I've been to a lot of places and I've never seen a Wildling before. It's okay, you're safe here. You get some rest. You've had a long day. Goodnight. [creature growling] [instrumental music] [music continues] [creature growling] [girl groaning] Hey. Good morning. You okay in there? It's 7:00, time for breakfast. [water running] Whoa! [chiming] [instrumental music] [music continues] We only moved here for Ellen's job. Right after our parents died. If we were still in the city we'd be taking the subway. No, subway sucks. No cell phone signal anywhere, ever. Sucks. Only one single chain restaurant and that's Dairy Queen. Sucks. I told you. They're not hamsters. A -- and they're not babies either. No. [chuckles] Do you wanna see where you really came from? Well this should give you the general idea. [woman moaning] [man moaning] [light growling] [light growling] Got a little something for you. You know that's what you use when you're bleeding down there. So it's medicine? No. No, no, you're not sick. You're a woman. [audience cheering] [gunshot] Wooh, go Lady Grizzlies! Do you know where the library is? - Yeah, I'll show you. - Get all those girls back to the start. The party is this Saturday. It's at my house. So you should definitely come 'cause you'll get to meet everyone. - Gonna be super fun. - Thank you. Bye. Bye. [instrumental music] [growling] Oh, God, really? Yeah, I mean probably. She's barefoot. [girls laughing] You think she's the girl who was kept in her father's attic? Oh, my God, really, like a sex slave? Yeah. She must be retarded. Uh, hi. Excuse me, miss. Hi. You lookin' for something? I'm -- I'm looking for Ray. He was supposed to meet me at the library after school You know you should really be more careful there's like broken glass and shit. [coughs] We might be able to help you out. [knock on door] Come on, let me out! Whatcha think? Sure. You guys are so hilarious. Ray, you never told us you had a girlfriend. - I don't. - Well, then what are you, fuck-buddies? - Leave her out of this. - Hey, buddy. You forgot something. [grunting] Who's smokin' pot? - No one. - Oh, good boy. That's a good boy. - Make sure he remembers that. - Mm-hmm [grunting] Hey, that was very impressive. What's your name? You're not doing me any favors. [instrumental music] [music continues] [music continues] [instrumental music] [bell ringing] You always go up like this against the grain. My dad taught me how to do this. He used to shave every single day of his life. Not his legs. His face. Anna, there is something that I need to talk to you about. Those DNA tests came back. They show that Gabriel Hanson is not your real father. He's not your daddy. What? Do you remember what I said about moms and dads? Everyone has 'em. Yeah. We're still not sure who your real mom and dad are. I don't think the state's gonna let you stay with me forever. We're gonna have to find you a more permanent home. [crickets chirping] You can't escape so easily. The test is Monday and you've only gone through half of your stuff. So? What do you know about the Declaration of Independence? Come on, if you flunk this Ellen is gonna kill me. Have you ever been to the Northern Lights? No, you can't see them from here. Why? 'Cause they're really, really far north where there's no more people. [instrumental music] I'd actually like to see the Northern Lights too. My mom.. She showed me pictures when I was like... this. Uh... what are you doing? You smell. I smell? Like a hamburger. I've never got that one before. What's that? What? There. I think Jen is having a party. I know Jen. How do you know her? She's my friend. Hey, where you guys goin'? To a party. Uh, you don't wanna party with me? I thought we were gonna fire up the grill. Yeah, but couldn't we do that tomorrow? - Yeah, sure. - Well, why don't you come to the party? Oh, I don't think Ellen would wanna come to this kinda party. - What kind of party is "This kinda party?" - It's at Jen's house. Yeah, were gonna be home before midnight. [indistinct chatter] [doorbell rings] Hi. Who are you again? Anna. - Anna. Come on in. - Thank you. You're with a girl. Good for you. [indistinct chatter] [screaming] The voice in my head The voice in my head The voice in my head [indistinct chatter] Hey, buddy. Why didn't you bring your mommy? She's my sister, asshole. Oh, wow, I didn't know you could fart out of your mouth. Hidden talents, man. Hidden talents. [laughs] The voice in my head The voice in my head The voice in my head The voice in my head Here. Don't drink it too fast. That's great. [upbeat music] [indistinct chatter] [indistinct singing] [screaming] [instrumental music] [music continues] [indistinct singing] [indistinct chatter] Anna. Anna, what's the matter? Anna, I can take you home. Come out and let's go. Anna? Anna, can you please open the door? [instrumental music] [loud twig snaps] [light growling] [intense music] [growling] [snarling] [screams] [gasps] [panting] [roaring] [choking] [instrumental music] [panting] [door closes] [music continues] It's made so that the Wildling will get hurt if he tries to get in. Why does he wanna get in? Because you're the last one left. He ate all the other children. [howling] [indistinct chatter] [light growling] Anna! Are you okay? Where have you been? Anna, did someone hurt you? Come. Ray and I have been looking for you everywhere. Anna, listen, I.. I want you to know that you can trust me, okay? You can tell me anything. I really need to know what happened last night. Where you've been and what happened to your dress. Did someone try and hurt you or touch you in any way? [light growling] [knock on door] - Roger. - You need any help with her? No, I'm fine, thank you. Well, here's the thing. Richard Fuller just called and his 18-year-old son Lawrence was also at that party and he didn't come home either. He was last seen around 11:00 p.m. Tom and I asked the kids, but no one seems to see him leave, so.. Well, I, I thought maybe we should ask her. I think you should let me handle that. Anna, you need to talk to me. Anna, you need to tell me what happened at that party last night. You don't wanna be painting your nails right now. I'm trying to help you. - I can't help you if you won't talk to me. - Ellen. What's going on? Are you okay? Ray, what do you know about Lawrence Fuller? You mean besides being an asshole? Well, that asshole is missing. You think that Anna has something to do with this? I -- is that what's going on here? I want her to tell me where she was last night. - She won't talk. - Ellen. - I need for you to tell me where you were last night. - I think it would be better if I talk to her. - Oh, you do? Yeah? - Yes, alone. Yeah. Thank you. Don't worry, I won't tell her about the blood. Anna, you can't do stuff like this. How am I supposed to protect you? Let me see. Ellen! [door opens] Ellen! - Yeah? - We need to take her to the hospital. [bird cawing] [panting] [instrumental music] [music continues] [dramatic music] [bird cawing] [grunting] [grunting] Thought so. You're looking for the others... like you. I haven't seen one of your kind in 16 years since the last purge. Yeah, I remember that night. I'll never forget it. Men from the town said they got every last one of them. But that isn't quite true, is it? Do you wanna know where your mother is? [instrumental music] [bats screeching] [gunshot] Gabe, you okay? I'm fine! [baby crying] Any more of them bastards back there? No, we got 'em all. Every last one of them. [baby cooing] You're my special little berry. [breathing heavily] [instrumental music] [light growling] [handcuffs click] [light growling] [handcuffs clicking] What's going on? We found Lawrence.. ...and her dress by his body. [music continues] [handcuffs clicking] I'm sorry, Anna. I really wanna understand. I'll be back. [clock ticking] [light growling] [light growling] [dramatic music] - Goodnight, Roger. - Goodnight [buzzing] [buzzing] [door closes] [footsteps] [sniffing] Before I got you, I had a dog. His name was Jasper. Good dog. Always a bit of a rebel. But then after the night I got you Jasper got crazier and crazier. And then finally one day he snapped. So I had to send him to the better place.. ...you know. I swore an oath, Anna. That I would kill the Wildlings. If I had been.. ...half the true hunter Jasper was there would be no Anna.. ...and Jasper would still be at my side. There's a better place for you. Lift up your shirt. Find the place.. ...and put it in. Now, push it in. Push it all the way in. Daddy, why didn't you tell me that I'm a Wildling? I wanted to spare you. Why? (needle drops) Why did you spare me? Anna was a mistake.. ...and so is daddy. Roger. [instrumental music] [light growling] [music continues] [cell door slams] Good morning, Anna. You okay under there? Come on get up, I need to take you to the district.. [groaning] Ah! No! No! Anna! - Anna? - Drive! - Anna, seriously... Can you go a bit quicker, please? Where are we even going? - To the Northern Light. - Seriously? This is crazy. I mean, you're a fugitive. No, I'm a Wildling. Why are you slowing down? Why are we stopping? What is it, a Wildling? - Keep driving! - What is a Wildling, Anna? I wanna help you, but you can't honestly think that we can just steal a cop car like this. They can trace this thing! [indistinct radio chatter] Hey. Hey, Wildling! [light growling] [water gushing] [instrumental music] Aw, fuck, that's cold. You're gonna get sick in those wet clothes. Hey, come on, Anna. Get up. Raise your arms. [instrumental music] [light growling] [gasps] I won't bite you. [music continues] [music continues] [moaning] [wolf howling] [door opens] You track her down? Get the men. I can't do that, Gabe. Not if she's with the kid. I ran into Cooper this mornin'. I tell ya she's asking too many questions. I'm not going to jail for this, Gabe. Not for your mist.. You let her get away! It's not that bad really. It won't stay like this. [birds chirping] [growling] [growling] What is it? [eerie sounds] - Run. - What? [barking] [gunshot] Ray, stay down. [gunshot] [groaning] [indistinct chatter] [gun fire] Come. [gun fire] [groaning] [dogs barking] - You gotta jump! - What? If we follow the river, it's probably gonna take us back to the lake. From there, we can find our way back to the car and find Ellen. [dogs barking] Come on, let's go. [instrumental music] Ellen. Ray! Oh, my God. - Who did this to you? - No fucking idea. Where is Anna? Gone. [music continues] [birds chirping] [growling] [instrumental music] [growling] [thunder rumbling] [gun cocks] [wolf howling] [car door opens] Over there. Let's head over this way. [indistinct chatter] ...the lead suspect in the murder of fellow high school class mate Lawrence Fuller. Fuller was found dead at a party three months ago and his killer is still at large. Anna was arrested shortly after the murder but escaped and is still missing several months into the investigation. An important warning, authorities are urging residents not to take matters into their own hands as they fear this female suspect may be dangerous. She has been linked to.. [coughing] [groaning] [instrumental music] [growling] - Watch where you're going. - I'm sorry. [baby crying] We gotta go. Now. [engine revving] Go, go! - Ray? - E... Ellen... Ellen, where are you? Fern Creek. Why? Listen, listen, they're on the move. And Roger's with them. [instrumental music] [caws] [music continues] Whoa! [groaning] [instrumental music] She killed him. [eerie sounds] Come on. Move! Move! [groans] [breathing heavily] [groans] [twig breaks] [gunshot] [gunshot] [panting] Watch your step, sheriff. Put it down. Put it down! You shouldn't have been snoopin' around and you should've never taken that girl. You're never gonna get.. [instrumental music] [music continues] This is 185 to dispatch. I need backup. Copy please.

That's it. I promise ya if it's a girl I'll name it Anna. [screaming] [rustling] [growling] [growling] [instrumental music] [growls] [growling] [music continues] [heart beating] Ellen. [instrumental music] [music continues] [baby cooing] [growling] Light so blind Through these endless skies Feel so distant and far Trees that sway Under the moon so brave Is there life beyond these stars?
