(MUFFLED, INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(FAN BUZZING AND WHOOSHING)

DOCTOR: You're not cold
or anything, are you?

Everything all right?

Are you taking any medication?

- Hmm?
- (MAN LAUGHING)

Thank you.



How are you doing this morning?

Did you have a restful sleep
last night?

- MAN: Oh, yeah.
- (DOOR CREAKS SHUT)

- DOCTOR: You did?
- MAN: I did.

- Any dreams?
- Nope.

DOCTOR: Sometimes we don't
remember our dreams, you know?

- MAN: That's right.
- (DOOR CLANKS SHUT)

DOCTOR: We do dream,
but we don't remember

- when we wake up.
- No.

DOCTOR:
But if we are dreaming some

just before we wake up,
we remember those.

MAN:
That's right.

DOCTOR:
Did you know...

A little, uh...
uh, useful information.



(INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT
OVER P.A.)

- MAN: Yeah.
- DOCTOR: When we wake up

and say, "The whole night,

I was dreaming
this and that and everything,"

- it's only 45 minutes maximum.
- (ORCHESTRAL MUSIC PLAYS)

- Did you know that?
- Yeah. No, I did not. Yeah.

DOCTOR: So the ordinary dream
is ten or 15 minutes.

I'll see you all later.

- Where are you going?
- I'm going to see my patients.

DANA:
Testing. Testing.

Check, check, check.
One, two, three.

Testing. One, two, three.

We are now at Smith's Grove,

uh, rehabilitation facility.

AARON: We're here today
to interview a patient

that's spent the last 40 years
in captivity

and, by all accounts,
has not uttered a word.

This monster...

- (BUZZING)
- (LOCK CLUNKS)

- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon.

I'm Dr. Ranbir Sartain.

- Great to finally meet you.
- (DOOR CLOSES)

Thank you so much for taking
the time to meet with us today.

We were hoping to have
this opportunity

before he's transferred
to the new facility.

Glass Hill
is far less accommodating.

Glass Hill is the pit of hell.

For years, he's been kept here
to be studied.

I suppose the state
has lost interest

in discovering
anything further.

Well, that's why we're here.

SARTAIN: Michael has been
my life's obsession.

I've examined every single
case file written on him.

I was a student of Dr. Loomis
before he passed away.

And then I lobbied
the University of Illinois

to be assigned
to Michael myself.

Any progress?

Well, he's been seen by
over 50 clinical psychiatrists,

and with each,
many different opinions.

Dr. Loomis was the only one
to see him in the wild.

And he concluded he was
nothing more than pure evil.

Our patients get fresh air,
sunshine,

a view, proper exercise,
healthy diet.

It pains me
to see him transferred

to that less-than-desirable
facility.

And there he is.

He can speak.

He just chooses not to.

I'd love to stand
closer to him, if I may.

Get a sense of his awareness,
or lack of awareness.

Oh, make no mistake,
he's aware.

He was watching you
as you arrived.

Perhaps you'd like to tie
your left shoelace?

Mr. Tovoli here, the gentleman
with the umbrella,

has a fixation for such things.

Underestimate no one.

Of course.

And now step up
to the yellow line.

And no further.

Do not cross the line
under any circumstances.

Michael.

Michael.

I've got some people
who'd like to meet you.

Hello, Michael.

My name is Aaron Korey.

I've been following your case
for years

and still know
very little about you.

I'd like to know more.

About that night.

About those involved.

Do you ever think about them,
Michael?

Feel guilt about their fate?

I borrowed something
from a friend

at the attorney general's
office, Michael.

DANA (WHISPERS):
What is it we're after?

AARON:
Okay, well,

having witnessed the animal
in its captive state

and failed to provoke
any sort of response,

we now track down
its counterpart.

Could it be that one monster
has created another?

And although the iron bars
and barbed wire

that separate them
are both strong and sharp,

the metaphysical lines
are blurred and slight.

Both exist in isolation,
fettered by their own fear

- and hatred of one another.
- DANA: This one.

AARON:
Here?

Could it be that the only hope

- of rehabilitation...
- DANA: Spooky.

AARON:
...is through confrontation?

DANA:
"Access has been denied.

We're, uh, um...

we're-we're making a podcast,

We're investigative

If you have a moment,
we've traveled a very long way.

How does $3,000 sound?

(JINGLING QUIETLY)

(CAR PULLING UP)

(BUZZING)

(CLUNKING)

Hello.

May we come in?

And-and sit down and talk?

(BEEPS)

So...

Aaron and I have made several

award-winning
public radio exposés.

Our last project shed new light

on a murder case
from 20 years ago.

We like to reexamine incidents
with an unbiased lens.

I believe there's
a lot to learn

from the horrors
you experienced.

There's nothing to learn.

There are no new insights

or discoveries.

So, is he real?

Who?

The Boogeyman.

I read you quoted...

You don't believe
in the Boogeyman?

I believe in Michael Myers,
deranged serial killer, but...

the Boogeyman, no.

Well, you should.

Okay.

Michael Myers is a human being

who killed his sister
when he was six years old.

Then he came after you.

We just want to know why.

We want a glimpse
inside his mind.

That's why your story
is so important.

My story?

AARON:
Two failed marriages.

Rocky relationship with your
daughter and granddaughter.

Michael Myers
murdered five people.

And he's a human being
we need to understand?

I'm twice divorced.

And I'm a basket case.

They're transferring him.

Tomorrow, 7:00.

He'll-he'll be locked away
until the end of his days.

That's the idea.

Let's talk about
when the state came

to take your daughter away.

She was 12 years old.

They said you were
an unfit mother.

How long until
you regained custody?

I didn't.

But you already knew that.

Laurie, we saw him.

We met with Michael.

I showed him the mask.

There was nothing.

No response. Nothing.

He won't talk to anyone.

Never has, but...

I think he might speak
with you.

So, why don't you sit down
with him

and say all the things
you must be longing to say.

Come with us,

and let us help you
free yourself.

Please.

LAURIE:
Time's up.

I'll accept my payment.

Get out.

You want to shit under my sink?

I will murder you
and your whole family.

- (CHUCKLES)
- (SIZZLING)

I switched from marshmallow
fluff to peanut butter.

See if those little bastards
eat that.

- That ought to kill them.
- Morning.

I rescheduled my last session,
so I can make it tonight.

You really didn't
have to do that, Mom.

It's not a big deal.

RAY: You made it into
the National Honor Society.

- KAREN: Yeah.
- That is a very big deal.

I just made it to the top
of my shop class,

making birdhouses and, uh,
a checkerboard made of teak.

- (CHUCKLES)
- We're excited to meet Cameron.

That whole family, though,
they had a reputation.

- KAREN: Ray, come on.
- RAY: But it's true.

- It's a relevant factor.
- Ray.

- Ray.
- Do you remember the one time Lonnie

punched that cop in the face?

- Ray.
- That was a...

- (TRAP SNAPS)
- Oh! Mother...

Oh, man!

I got peanut butter
on my penis.

- (RAY GROANS)
- Ew, Dad.

Instant karma.

Cameron is a good guy.
He's nothing like that.

You're gonna see
when you meet him tonight.

They're all nice guys
until they get you pregnant,

and then you gotta drive
in their pickup trucks,

and you clean their guns,
and you got children,

and you clean guns, and you
like to get high with them,

and then y'all get fat.

Hey, Dad?

- What?
- Can you stop?

I gotta clean
this peanut butter off my hand.

Did you invite Grandmother
like you said you would?

About tonight.
You said that you'd...

- Oh.
- ...invite her.

Right. I did.

- You did?
- Yeah.

I talked to her yesterday.

She's not gonna be able
to come, honey. I'm sorry.

Really?

Yeah.

Baby, she's agoraphobic.

She needs cognitive
behavioral therapy,

- so don't take it personally.
- (DOORBELL RINGS)

That's Vicky. I gotta go.

Hey, I love you.

Have a good day.

- ALLYSON: Bye, Dad. Love you.
- RAY: Okay.

ALLYSON:
So, my mom's a liar.

VICKY:
What happened?

(SIGHS)
She said that she invited

my grandmother tonight,
but she didn't.

I mean, she never even
contacted her.

- How do you know?
- Because I called her myself.

- That's bullshit.
- Yeah.

Dude, what's your mom's deal?
Why would she say that?

I don't know. She just tries
to keep me away from her.

Everyone in my family, like,

turns into a total nutcase
this time of year.

If I were you guys,
I wouldn't celebrate, either.

I would just put up
a Christmas tree instead.

Just skip all over the
creepy Halloween shit, right?

Does your grandma
ever talk about it?

Yeah, it's pretty much
all she talks about.

It defines her life.

She's been traumatized
ever since.

Wasn't it her brother
who, like,

cold-blooded murdilated
all those teenagers?

No.

That's just a bit
that some people made up

to make them feel better,
I think.

I mean, that is scary to have
a bunch of your friends

get butchered
by some random crazy person.

Is it, though?
Because, all things considered,

there's a lot worse stuff
that's happening today.

And, like, I mean, what,
a couple people getting killed

by one guy with a knife
is not that big of a deal.

Dude, her grandmother
was almost fucking murdered.

And she escaped,
and they caught him,

and now he's incarcerated.

I-I'm just saying, like,
by today's standards...

Just shut the fuck up, Dave.

Shut up.

Oh, I'm sorry.
Yeah, shut up, Dave.

Hey, is it cool with you guys

if I explode one
of these pumpkin heads?

(BOTH LAUGHING)

- Yeah. Yeah.
- Go for it.

VICKY:
Oh, he's serious?

- He's serious.
- Oh, God, he's really blowing it up.

I know.
He's such a fucking moron.

- Oh, God. Oh, God.
- Oh, Jesus.

- (LAUGHING)
- Go, go, go, go, go.

- DAVE: Happy Halloween!
- (WHISTLES, EXPLODES)

- Ah!
- (GRUNTS)

(CHUCKLING):
Cameron.

I got you.
That was a good one.

Yes, that was very good.

Hey, do you have everything

for your costume
tomorrow night?

- Bonnie and Clyde must roll as one, after all.
- Um...

no, I mean,
I-I'm more focused on tonight.

Tonight?

I-I thought you were joking
when you said

your parents
were old-fashioned.

- Be nice, okay?
- Okay.

It'll be fun.

- I'm excited for tonight.
- I need to calm down.

- I'm excited for tonight, okay?
- Okay.

- (GRUNTS) Ooh...
- (ALLYSON CHUCKLES)

Ugh. You guys are just barf,
you know.

You're just...
you're two yucky dumpsters,

- and I want to go diving. Come here. Mwah!
- No.

- Dude, dude.
- Right here, right here, right?

- Oh. Mwah, mwah.
- CAMERON: Dude, you-you got

your little chapped-lip
crusties

all over me, man, so thanks.

I know. And you're welcome.

- It's gross.
- It's a little part of me for you.

For the rest of your day.

(CHUCKLING):
All right? So, do you have

everything ready
for your costume tomorrow?

- Um... about that...
- What?

Are we seriously not?

You said we were gonna do this
whole Halloween dance together.

Now-now you just...
you ditch me.

I mean, you just...
you-you can't walk

- all over town breaking hearts.
- Okay, okay, okay.

- Hey, listen, listen.
- All right?

- Love. Truly.
- Okay, lovebirds, later.

- (SCHOOL BELL RINGING)
- (STUDENTS MURMURING)

TEACHER:
Now let's open our books to...

Frankl's interpretation.

He said,
"Fate took a different course.

"I understand how someone who
has nothing left in this world

may still know bliss."

His message is totally hopeful.

Even in the most disparaging
of conditions,

life can find its meaning,

and conversely,
so can one's suffering.

ALLYSON:
I...

can't accept this.

Use it for whatever
your heart desires.

I'll save it for college, then.

Fuck college.

Go somewhere. Go to Mexico.

Could you imagine?

Yeah, I can.

Look, don't worry
about your mom.

She will freak.

But she'll get over it.

Why can't you?

The Boogeyman?

All this hiding,
all this preparation,

it was for nothing.

I mean, it took priority
over your family.

It cost you your family.

If the way I raised your mother
means that she hates me...

...but that she's prepared

for the horrors of this world,
then...

I can live with that.

Maybe you can explain to me

what's so special
about Judith Myers.

As she sat combing her hair,
unaware,

her six-year-old brother
crept in quietly

with a kitchen knife.

AARON: He then proceeded
to slice the base of her skull,

scraping her spinal cord.

When she turned,

raising her hands
in self-defense,

he continued stabbing

into the nerves
and arteries of her palms.

Three more stabs
into her sternum,

penetrating her heart.

the other side.

Oh, here we go.

No, a banh mi sandwich.

Banh mi is essentially just

the Vietnamese version
of a French baguette.

- Mm-hmm.

to the bread and not so much
the contents therein.

- Mm.

your very own

peanut butter and jelly
