388 Arletta Avenue (2011) - full transcript

Jesus says, "John, I can
see your house from here."

It's so early.

Hey, this was your idea.

Give me your key.

You don't have yours?

Uh-uh.

Here, I got it.

James, that's the
most obvious place

in the world
to put it.

Luckily, we've got
nothing worth stealing,

lazy legs.



Let's do it.

Don't run so fast.

You're like my
high school gym teacher.

What's going on?

What are you doing?

Why did you set the alarm?

I didn't set it.

But... I don't want to
go running.

I didn't set it, Amy.

Well, the bogey man
must have set it.

Morning, Deaks.

Jesus Christ, Amy!

Just gotta

♪ Baby... ♪

Did someone
send this to you?

Me?

One of your undergrad students,
or the professor

what's-his-face
with the nose hairs?

No.

I highly doubt it.

'Cause I didn't make it.

Okay, James,
you have so much music.

Every time I walk into
your office

you're downloading
something.

I don't even
make CDs anymore.

Okay so,
what are you saying?

Somebody just made a CD,
they put it in the car.

Wasn't this car door
locked?

Yes, okay.

So all I know is
that I didn't make it.

I didn't make it
either, Amy.

So who made it?

Isn't it weird to you
at all?

Yes.

I don't know, maybe.

You forget things
sometimes.

What's that
supposed to mean?

Nothing.

I'm just saying

that you forget
things sometimes.

What?
Like when I drink?

James, all I'm saying is that I bet all of this music

is right on your computer.

No, no, no.

Wait!

What's that?

"The Doo Ron Ron Mix."

Aren't those
the same songs?

What?

See?

I told you.

What is this, your idea
of a joke?

What, you think that
I put those on there?

I know
I sure as hell didn't.

James, you have
eight thousand songs

on your computer.

You probably just forgot.

You think that I have
nothing better to do

than to come into your office
and sneak around

and make a mixed CD?

Honestly, I don't know
what it is you do here

all day, Amy?

You've been working on this
Afghan embroidery thesis

for seven years.

Or is it eight?

You're an asshole.

Relax, I was joking.

No, you're not.

Hey, come on.

Help me figure this out.

Nasty little shit.

Amy, please!

Amy.

Hey.

Come on, Amy.

Is that you?

Amy!

Hey, you home?

Amy!

Katherine, it's James.

Yeah, what's up?

Is Amy there with you?

No.

Why would she be here?

Are you sure?

Of course, I'm sure.

Did she say she was going away
at all?

No.

She didn't?

No.

I got this note from her
saying that she needed to

clear her head.

Why?

She didn't say.

Did you guys have a fight
or something?

No, we didn't have a fight.

Is she mad at you?

Not that I know of.

"Not that you know of?"

What does that mean?

It means what it means.

Well, James, I don't know
where she is.

But if you talk to her
please tell her to call me.

Please, I'm worried.

What are you talking about?

Could you just do that?

Fine.

Thank you.

Hi. You've reached Amy's cell.

Leave a message.

God, forgiveness and mercy
for His children and family.

Those lost in battle with evil
will find glory ...

Hello?

Amy?

Amy, is that you?

Hey, Deakin, you scared me.

I left you outside.

Come here.

Hello!

Amy?

♪ You can stand by me ♪

♪ Honey, I'm a fool ♪

♪ Hey, baby, let it be ♪

♪ Honey what a fool ♪

♪ I've been ♪

Likes the oldies.

Who likes the oldies?

Whoever made this.

You like
this kind of stuff.

I like everything.

You really didn't as some kind
of joke or something?

Is this funny?

Did she pack a bag?

A bag was packed.

Okay.

So there you go she's
just clearing her head.

She's taking a vacation.

From what?

From--

You got to admit
you're not always the--

What?

I don't know.

I don't think Amy
made this CD.

Who did, then?

I don't know.

You think somebody's screwing
with your head?

I don't know.

Okay.

Do you have a crazy
ex-girlfriend?

Somebody you work with?

Bill Burrows, maybe?

Yeah, we were really hard
on that guy.

We?

Hey, no one laughed harder
than you, Alex.

You know,

in the original version
of this song,

they don't say Jill,

they say Bill.

"His name was Bill."

♪ Yeah, my heart ♪

♪ Was Jill ♪

♪ And when I walked her home ♪

Hey, Sherry.

Hey.

What's up?

We're cool, right?

Yeah.

Are you sure?

Why wouldn't we be cool?

There's no reason why,
it's just...

I don't know.

But we're cool, right?

Yeah.

Get over yourself, James.

Yeah.

That's what I thought.

Amy, it's me again.

Look, if you don't want me
to know where you are,

that's fine,

but just let me know
you're okay, all right?

With everything
going on right now

it would be shitty of you
if you just took off

on vacation or something.

You know.

So just let me know
you're okay.

That's it.

I'm worried about you.

She's not here.

Well, she's got to
be here,

'cause I don't know
where she is

and this is the only place
she could be.

What's this about?

Well, my wife is missing
and I know

that she's hiding out
with you guys.

Where did she go,
to a hotel, is that it?

Get out of my house.

So you did, right?

You sent her
to a hotel?

I told you
she wasn't in there!

This is
really, really fucked.

Really good day for it.

Serves you right
for screwing around on her.

That's what this is?

It's teach-James-a-lesson time?

I told her to leave you
when you broke her wrist.

You know what,
she hit me in the head

and broke it herself.

You were holding her.

We were drunk.

We were fooling
around, Jesus.

I never bought
that story, James.

Yeah, whatever.

Yeah.

Katherine, stay away from me,
stay away from my house.

Got it?

I'm serious, Katherine.

Stay away from my house.

Tell your sister
I know what she's up to.

Hey, Bill.

James.

Good to see you.

What's up?

I was just in
the neighbourhood

seeing if you...

I don't know,
if you're not busy

you want to
take a little drive

and have a coffee,
or something.

There's something
I've wanted to

talk to you about
for a long time.

You sure,
we can't get you

some breakfast, some eggs?

Coffee?

No, I'm good.

I'm surprised
I caught you at home

at this time of the day.

I work evenings, mostly.

Doing what?

They got me down at the
Humane Society some nights.

Oh yeah?
You an animal lover?

Someone's got to
be there at nights, you know,

in case there's
any freak-outs.

Cousin got me the job.

Oh, shit.

Sorry if I woke you up then,
working nights.

Naw, I don't sleep much.

No?

Why not?

I heard you were
in Afghanistan.

I remember you were
all into that military stuff

in school.

Joined the cadets, right?

I remember you got teased
a little bit for that.

Yeah, I suppose.

We were friends in
third grade, you and me.

If you remember
we would play Star Trek

on the playground.

I'd always be Kirk
and you'd be Spock.

Remember that?

You used to do the Vulcan--

Yeah.

I got it.

I got it.

And then we just kind of
drifted apart.

Still I feel shitty
for teasing, you know.

I feel shitty
for my part in that.

And, I mean, it must
make you angry to think back

on those days.

Now I know
that it was mean.

It was really mean.

It was...

It was weird, you know,
we were friends for a year

and then I spent the
next ten torturing you.

It was just relentless.

I mean, it must have just seemed
totally random to you.

You know, "Why?"

"Why me?"

And I can't even answer
that question, to be honest.

It was just our
screwed up idea

of having fun.

Hey, everything okay, man?

Yeah. Sorry.

That's all right.

Hey, it's good to take
your stuff home with you,

but it's got to get done.

Yeah, I know.

I have a bit of a situation.

I will get it to you.

What's the ETA on
the Myers account?

James.

Yeah, sorry.

The Myers account.

When is that happening?

I'm really sorry.

I have a bit of a situation
at home,

but I will have that to you
by the end of the day.

Yeah, promise.

Okay.

Amy, you home?

♪ ...far, far away ♪

♪ But the cat came back
the very next day ♪

Oh, come on.

♪ He thought
he was a goner ♪

Hey Deaks, how you doing?

You alright, boy?

So you don't think
this is your cat?

No.

He's different.

He's skinnier.

There, that.

He's never done that before.

He's never growled before?

Not like that.

Not at me.

But, otherwise,
he looks the same?

Like I said, it's not just
the cat, there's the CD.

Someone's been messing around
with my computer.

Something is going on.

This is really what
concerns me right here.

Is this her handwriting?

Yeah, I think so.

So, she needed to
clear her head.

Something's going on.

I mean, really, Mr. Deakin,
who is going to go

and replace your cat?

Hello?

Anybody home?

Anybody here?

Hello?

What the hell are you doing?

Jesus.

How did you get in here?

I want to speak to Amy.

Come on.

Let's go.

What are you doing?

Get out.

What are you doing home
on a work day?

I want to speak to Amy.

Amy?

She's not here.

Katherine, she's not here!

She's not answering
her phone

so I want to know
what's going on.

Amy?

Go.

I want to talk to
my sister, James.

Yeah, and I want to talk
to my wife.

Get out.

Come on, Katherine--

Don't touch me.

Get out of my house.

What is
the matter with you?

You're hurting my arm.

Get the hell
out of here then.

You've done something,
haven't you?

So why can't I go
and look then?

I got a bit of a
situation, Katherine.

I don't want
you meddling.

Meddling in what?

I'm handling it, okay.

Just go.

Get your hands off me.

I'm really calling
the police now, James.

I've called
the police.

They don't do shit.

I'm dealing with it.

Jesus Christ!

What the hell?

Yes, they cut
his head off.

But you said the fake cat
is still there?

Yes.

Amy is still gone.

I haven't heard from her.

Have you checked with work,
her friends?

Yes, I called all her friends,
I checked with the school,

I checked her e-mail.

I called the airlines

to see if she booked a flight,
nothing.

The note asked you not to
contact her though, right?

I told you, I don't think
she wrote that note.

Listen, I need you to figure out
what's going on.

All right?

I need you to
find my wife.

We can file a report.

That's great.

Without any real evidence,
it's all we can do.

Listen, I'll just handle this
myself then, okay.

Mr. Deakin--

You don't believe me.

I'll get you
some evidence then.

Amy?

Amy, you there?

Who is this?

Jesus.

Oh!

Jesus Christ.

Who the hell?

Yeah, give me
the police.

Is anybody down there?

Hello? Is anybody
down there?

All right,
it takes a second.

Right there.

Who is it?

I don't know who it is.

Now watch this.

He doesn't come out.

He obviously, you know,
got in here.

And you say they
did something to your cat?

Did something?

He cut his head off!

There is still a cat.

Yeah, there's a cat.

It's a fake cat.

It's a fake cat?

Yeah. It looks the same
but it's--

You're sure
it's a fake?

Yeah, I'm sure.

Come here.

This is what my cat
looks like now.

Jesus Christ.

It's gone!

What, you lost
the head?

No, I didn't.

Whoever did this, came
and they took it back.

They took
the cat head back?

You saw the video.

Someone's been coming
and going in here.

But you put the cat head
in the freezer?

Yeah.

This hasn't come up
a lot in my life.

Is there a different protocol
for severed cat head storage

I should know about?

I'm going to need you
to calm down, sir.

Calm down?

When's the last time
your cat was murdered?

When's the last time
your wife just disappeared?

There was a note though,
right, from your wife?

Yeah.

What are you
going to do?

What are you going
to do about this?

Well, what would you like us
to do about it, Mr. Deakin?

Take it seriously,
for starters.

I can assure you
we are taking

the disappearance of
your wife very seriously.

Have you and your wife
had any trouble

with any neighbours lately?

No.

Anyone from work, school?

No.

Can you think of anyone
that might want to do this?

You know, the last
time we met,

I remembered you were
a big Jays fan.

Got the whole team
on there.

Ninety-two championship
team.

Yeah, I know it.

It looks new.

It's mint condition.

You're the first person
to touch it

in probably twenty years.

Hmm.

This must seem
pretty weird to you.

Just having
a bad week.

In fact, you might say

I have a new-found
understanding

of probably what you went
through in school.

Just to be harassed,
you know.

Not know what's coming next.

Not knowing
what horrible shit

they're going to do next.

Look, I'm sorry
about all that stuff.

I mean it, Bill,
anything you need ever,

you let me know.

I'm serious, man.
I am not that guy--

Alright.

--From school,
you know.

I mean, that guy
was a monster.

I'm not him.

Yeah, all right.

Has anyone ever
done this before?

No.

Apologized
for the bad stuff?

No one's ever
done this before.

Does it help?

The bad stuff
still happened.

Let me ask you
a question, Bill.

You know where
my wife is?

You don't you know
where your wife is?

No, I don't.

Well, how would I know
where your wife is?

I'm not screwing
around here, okay?

If you've got
a problem with me

let's keep it between
you and me.

Amy didn't do
anything wrong, okay?

What?

Is something funny?

I'm just going to--

You're not going
anywhere, Pock.

Where's Amy?!

Where the hell is she?

You're still the same
asshole, Deakin!

You know that?

Okay.

If I'm wrong,
I'm sorry.

Okay?

But you got to understand

what I'm going through
right now, all right?

I understand.

Karma's a bitch, huh?

I don't know.

What do you mean
you don't know?

I'll say it again,
I don't know where she is.

As far as I know

she could be next to you
laughing her ass off.

James, I will
bring the police.

Bring them over, Katherine.

They're not going to
do anything, trust me.

I don't trust you, James.

I'm hanging up the phone
now, okay.

You better not
have done any--

Oh, what's next?

What's next, asshole?

Yeah.

Bring it on.

Bill.

I'm coming.

You in there?

Amy?

No.

Amy...

Amy, where the hell are you?

Where the hell are you?

Hi. Is this a bad time,
Mr. Deakin?

Yeah, well, I was...

Yeah, is... what?

Have you heard from Amy?

Anything on Amy?

Police Officer
No, I'm afraid not.

But we did
get a call today, however,

from a Bill Burrows.

What?

Yeah, he said you've been
harassing him.

Today he called?

About an hour ago.

An hour ago.

You're familiar with him then?

Yeah, we went
to school together.

I haven't seen him
in years.

So you're suggesting
he made this all up

out of the blue.

No.

I called him.

Like I said,
I was checking people out

from my past.

But you didn't see him?

No.

Mind if I come in for a minute,
Mr. Deakin?

Why?

Well, I just need to fill out
a report.

I'm heading to work.

Well, if you prefer

we can go down to the station.

Yeah. Sure.

After you.

This is really against
my better judgment, dude.

You don't have to...

Trust me it's in there.

Okay. Thanks.

You're not going
to use it, I hope.

I don't... I don't know.

Well, you didn't get it
from me, right?

No.

Okay.

You want to fill me in
on what is going on?

I'm getting calls
every goddamn day

from your sister-in-law.

She's freakin' out.

Katherine called you?

Yeah. She's worried
about Amy.

You haven't spoken to her?

Me? No!

Nothing happened?

What do you mean?

Between the two of you?

Like... like what?

Anything I should be
worried about?

I'm dealing
with it, okay.

What about Bill?

What about him?

You eliminate him?

What does that mean?

From your list.

You said you were
going to go check him out.

Yes.

It's not Bill.

Not Bill.

No, not Bill.

Whoever you are...

I get the feeling
you can hear me.

You're somehow listening.

I don't know
why you're doing this.

I think you're playing
some kind of game with me.

But I'm done.

I'm not
playing anymore, okay.

If you want me,
I'm here.

If you want to play,
you come and see me.

Hello.
I need to talk to you.

Don't hang up.

Don't!

Hello! Shit!

Listen, I'm coming up.

I just want
to talk to you, okay.

Hey!

Hey!

Stop!

Hey!

Come on. Come on!

Where'd you go?

Shit. Shit!

Come on.

Shit.

Oh, no. No...

You son-of-a-bitch.
You son-of-a-bitch.

Where'd she go?

How would you feel

about me calling the police,

white Chevy Van,
license plate EM3 6PC?

Here's what we're going to do.

I'm going to come home
from work tomorrow

and Amy's going to be there.

And everything's
going to be back to normal.

Okay?

You're going to
forget about me

and I'm going to
forget about you.

You hear me?

We're going to move on.

Unless you'd rather
deal with the police.

Because they could
fry us both at this point

if that's what you want.

If you agree
then just hang up the phone.
