Season 1, Ep. 7: All Good Things…
1 — Fatima and Julie talk in their Colony House room. Fatima is celebrating her first anniversary in the town. The residents want to celebrate it with a party. Julie compliments how positive Fatima is. She is the soul of the Colony House.
2 — Kevin leaves another floral bouquet on the porch railing. It is a daily routine. The flowers are for the beautiful female monster that visits him outside the window every evening.
3 — Boyd walks the road, ringing the bell to announce night is approaching.
4 — Tabitha reads Ethan the Cromenockle book and he is falling asleep. “There was so much joy on the faces of all the new wondrous friends she had made, so much magic in all the marvelous places she had been. Yet the Cromenockle had a feeling there was still more yet to come, and that her adventures in this strange new world truly had just only begun.”
Ethan now sleeps on the sofa. Tabitha closes the curtains as the night approaches.
5 — Kenny says his mom wants Jade to help get dinner started. Jade is busy drawing multiple sketches of the symbol that obsesses him. Kenny takes the book Jade was sketching on and scolds him. Kenny was reading that book. Jade had ran out of paper and took the book instead. Jade yells if he wants him to draw on the walls like a psychopath.
6 — Boyd finishes his bell-ringing round and meets Father Khatri outside the Sheriff’s Station. Father Khatri tells Boyd they have some things to talk about. Father Khatri holds the bag he buried when he first arrived at this place. Boyd tells him to come back in the morning, but he insists it must be now. Boyd invites him in for a sleepover, then. Father Khatri looks at the large amount of supplies on Boyd’s desk and perceives he is going somewhere. Boyd confirms and says he was going to talk to him about it soon.
7 — Jim is putting his engineering knowledge into a diagram of a twin tower construct at the Colony House, the highest point in this place, for the most efficient CB Radio broadcast possible.
Tabitha and Jim talk about Ethan. He passed out. Jim jokes about Tabitha breaking every child labor law making him empty outside many dirt buckets from the basement. She is still reeled about Sara’s actions and can’t let Ethan out of her sight. Jim is confident the windows and doors are shut in the evening and Ethan couldn’t open them if he wanted to. Tabitha worries about Julie in the Colony House, though. Jim convinces her that Donna is a tough person and won’t let any shenanigans happen in the house.
Jim tells her he plans to inform Sheriff Boyd he needs all the materials he can spare to build the twin towers and drain every single battery they’ve got in broadcasting the CB Radio signal to find out if they can communicate with the real world. They also need to convince Donna to allow them to build the towers outside the Colony House. Enough annoyance that he guarantees everyone hating on him when the broadcast fails.
8 — At the Colony House, the party continues. Ellis is drunk and moody when confronted about it. Donna talks long about Fatima before the residents and thanks her presence in their lives. Julie feels uncomfortable when she sees a female resident kiss Fatima on the lips and she reciprocates for several seconds.
9 — Father Khatri tells Boyd he buried this bag the day he arrived and asks Boyd to open it. He finds a bottle of alcohol. Boyd jokes: “Holding out on me?” Next, he finds the bloodied priest’s garment. He asks if all the blood belongs to him. Father Khatri ignores the question and asks Boyd to search for another item in the bag. He finds the chocolate bar. Boyd grows agitated with the nonsense and asks what the fuck is going on.
Father Khatri says they have never really discussed who they used to be before arriving at this place. He begins a story about a young boy in his congregation and how excited he was when his mother allowed him to place a dollar on the collection plate. One day he found the boy lingering outside the rectory. It was strange to see him alone because his parents were strict. The kid asked him to let him stay a while. He couldn’t because he was getting ready for late mass and he didn’t want the parents to worry.
Father Khatri went to his drawer and pulled out a candy bar. He always kept a stash for the neighborhood kids. He could see the boy didn’t want to go home. But he handed the candy bar to the boy and sent him on his way home. Later that evening, he went by the boy’s house to check on him. He wasn’t in the habit of making house calls. The boy’s mother came running hysterical. He could smell the alcohol the moment he stepped through the door. The father was standing there with this panicked, dumbfounded look on his face. “Get up! Get up!” He said. I walked over and I stepped into the room, and there he was. This sweet, innocent boy, just laying there, broken.
His neck was bulging in a way — it was… and I could see, in his pocket… the candy bar. “He’ll be fine.” That’s what the father said. Sounded indignant. The next thing I knew, I was on top of him. I smashed his face as hard as I could. I couldn’t stop. I kept hitting him over and over again. I was the one who was supposed to listen and defend the defenseless. That sweet little boy came to me begging for help and all I could do was give him a candy bar.
The next thing I remember, I was holding that bottle in my hand, standing on a bridge. The first time I heard the voice of God. He told me to get in the car, that there was another path for me to follow. Two hours later, I was here.
Boyd: Why are you telling me all this, now?
Father Khatri: Because I have Sara tied up in the basement of the Church. I have always known that there’s a reason we’re here.
Boyd gets angry and points his gun at Father Khatri. He panics and asks if he is gonna shoot him. Boyd cusses him out and says not too long ago he convinced Boyd he had to lock Frank in the box, and now he is harboring Sara, who killed 4 people.
Father Khatri argues that Sara might be the way they all go home. Boyd asks him to keep talking.
[Damn. This guy deserves an Oscar nomination.]10 — At the Colony House, Kevin sneaks into the room he visits every evening to talk with the beautiful monster in front of the window. He calls her Jasmine. She says she only came to say goodbye. Why won’t he let her in? He responds she knows why. He can’t. She says you said you like me. She guilt trips Kevin, that he feels disgusted by her. Kevin always tells her how lonely he is in there. She says he doesn’t know how lonely it is for her to be out here. It wasn’t her choice to be this way. She says farewell to Kevin.
Kevin stops her. There is a party of people downstairs, but she is the only one he wants to be with. The only one he can really talk to. Kevin asks Jasmine if she promises she will be the only one getting inside the room and nobody else. She responds she promises not once they shut the window.
Kevin uses a tool from the drawer to remove the nails from the window.
Downstairs, Dale — the a-hole guy who always handles the shotgun — is drunk, talking to a lady. He is babbling about String Theory and other science stuff. How many dimensions she think are out there? Bosonic string theorists believe there are 26 dimensions, but superstring theorists say there are only 10.
Stacey asks if he thinks this place is another dimension. Dale answers no. This is a pocket universe. Ellis is drunk too and had enough of the conversation. Asks him to shut the fuck up. Suddenly, Ellis slaps the alcohol bottle from Dale’s hand. Fatima intercedes to stop Ellis.
As Fatima succeeds in pulling Ellis away, Dale comes out with a snarky comment. Take him upstairs before he starts shooting people. Ellis doubles back and lifts his fist. Fatima and now Donna stop him.
Ellis goes upstairs alone. Dale cusses out and calls Ellis an animal. Like mother, like son — he says. Donna turns around and punches Dale straight to the face landing him on the ground on his arse.
Kevin opens the window, and Jasmine (the monster) enters the room.
They kiss passionately, and she slides her arms around his back, lifting his shirt. Her fingers and nails shift into large horrific claws and cut the skin off his back. He is in pain but can’t pull back. They were French kissing. She has got a hold of his tongue, rips it out of his mouth, and spits it out. He stumbles backward as his mouth bleeds. Her face transforms into a monster.
11 — Kenny knocks at Jade’s door and announces dinner is ready. Jade isn’t hungry. Kenny says he has been staring at the book for a day and a half. Jade asks him to fuck off. Kenny’s mother walks into the room and scolds Jade in Cantonese. Jade can’t understand a thing but gives up and agrees to come eat dinner to make her stop.
Kenny recommends not to take too long (knowing his mother well). Jade rolls his eyes and says something in Cantonese. Stands up and heads to the dining room.
12 — Upstairs, Fatima finds Trudy on a sofa alone and sad. She tries to cheer Trudy up, and she brushes her off because she doesn’t mean to be nice to her. She knows Fatima doesn’t like her. Fatima stays silent for a few seconds and decides to give her favorite yellow sweater to Trudy to demonstrate that’s not true. Trudy can’t believe Fatima gave away her favorite sweater and gets all cheered up. She tells Fatima now she needs to gift her something back. Asks her to wait until she gets back from her room.
Julie shows up at that moment and asks Fatima about the kiss with Stacey. Julie thought she was with Ellis. Fatima responds that Ellis is her man, but that she and Stacey just fool around. Julie asked if she could kiss Fatima. Fatima turned around concerned — and Julie read that as a rejection and ran away saying she was only kidding.
13 — Boyd is angry. So Sara says she’s hearing voices and you just believe her. Father Khatri explains that he was skeptical too. But then, Sara showed him this sketch. Boyd recognizes the logo of the Chocolate Bar. Father Khatri says he arrived here almost three years ago. Sara and Nathan have been here 4-5 months.
Boyd rationalizes that Father Khatri told someone else and that person told Sara. He responds he never told a soul. There is no possible way she could have known. Something was watching him that day, the same thing that told Sara. Boyd interrupts and asks if he thinks this voice is trying to help them by killing an old man and a child.
Father Khatri says that whatever it is, it’s a part of the fabric of this place. Whatever connection Sara has with this thing makes her valuable in ways they might not understand yet. He encourages to put Sara in the box if he wants, but the fact Boyd is preparing for a journey at the same time this connection with Sara is revealed, that’s not just a coincidence. That’s providence.
Father Khatri suggests that Sara and he accompany Boyd on his journey. To use that connection to their advantage.
Boyd jokes: “So a Sheriff, a Priest, and a murdering psycho walk into a bar. Father Khatri responds yea, something like that. Boyd laughs and takes a sip from the alcohol bottle.
14 — Tabitha has been digging the basement of her house all night. The hole is 6 feet deep. Jim walks down to the basement and whistles. If she digs any deeper, they will need a taller ladder. She responds she will dig as deep as they have to.
15 — Jasmine (the monster) finishes feasting on Kevin and opens the window. All the monsters approach the Colony House.
16 — Julie knocks Victor’s door. She asks if she can come in. Victor prefers not to let her in. Julie pleads this is the only room in the house where she can be alone. She’s having a really bad night.
Julie asks why he dug those graves. He prefers not to say. She asks if all these car plates are from all the cars that have come into town. He confirms yes. She reminds him that the first night she arrived he told her that two cars hadn’t come to town on the same day in a really long time and that it was special. Why? Do you know what this place is? Victor ignores her.
17 — Kenny and his mother wash the dishes. Jade continues to look at the old notebook with the symbol. Kenny scolds him for staring at it. Jade notices one of the pages feels wrong. Upon close inspection, he discovers the page is two pages stuck together. He tries to unwrap both pages and a polaroid photo falls on the table. The polaroid shows a man in his 40s-50s. Kenny’s mother talks to warn them. Victor. Victor. Kenny tells Jade in the edge of the polaroid, that boy with the lunchbox is Victor.
18 — At the Colony House, Trudy talks to her pillow. She plans to gift her favorite pillow to Fatima. As she walks toward Fatima’s room, she hears a woman laughter. She asks the woman what is she laughing at. The door closes behind her loudly. It is the monster with the big smile.
Jasmine (the monster) says Hi to Trudy. Trudy asks how she knows her name. Jasmine says they all know their names. All 3 monsters bite into Trudy’s throat. Blood splashes the pillow.
Bale is sitting on the stairway with Stacey, complaining that he’s been here longer than Ellis. The disrespect. Suddenly, he feels something on his arm. He inspects it. Blood? Another drop hits him. He looks up and sees one of the monsters. They sound the alarm that they are inside the house. Chaos ensues as everyone runs. The monsters slowly walk down the stairs with smiles. Fatima tries to run and sees shadows through the main entrance’s mosaic door.
Julie hears the screams and ask Victor what’s going on. He says it has started. He grabs a thick and long rope from one of his cabinets and ties it to the frame of the wall. It’s an escape route through the attic window.
Many residents make it into the van or run down the hill toward the Town.
Julie climbs down the long rope from the attic, with Victor next. Victor sees the boy in white.
19 — Victor says they will hide in the woods, but Julie is scared. Victor says if she wants to see her family again she has to trust him.
Ellis is the last in the Colony House and he is slow walking the stairs. Ellis finds Turdy’s corpse. But because she is wearing Fatima’s favorite sweater, he thought it was Fatima. Turning her around, he discovers she is Turdy. Ellis turns around to see one of the monsters behind him.
20 — Ellis throws a large object through the window to break an impromptu exit to the side roof of the porch. He jumps onto that roof. Then he jumps down and lands badly on the grass from such a height. Fatima finds him and helps him. Monsters approach them and he barely manages to stand up and walk.
Ellis is badly hurt. Possibly some broken ribs as he landed on his back. Fatima decides to enter the Colony House. She closes the door behind them, and closes a second door near the first one. Then holds the talisman and wishes with all her heart for protection. Somehow the monsters weren’t able to enter this small room between the entrance and the house.
Ellis slides down to the ground in disbelief, looking at Fatima. He asks how she knew it was going to work. She responds she didn’t. She remembered Boyd, the talisman, and the RV.
21 — In the forest, Victor asks Julie to enter a Farway Tree. She refuses. Victor says she will be safe. He promises. She has to find her brother and warn him. He pushes Julie through the Farway Tree and says he will be right behind her. She goes into darkness and hears his last words far away.
22 — Julie appears inside the closet in the Root Cellar. Victor’s hideaway place as a boy.
23 — Boyd tells Father Khatri that both may come with him but if she even blinks the wrong way. Both are startled by a car blaring its horn. Donna arrives in the van with many residents. Both come outside to find out what happened. There is no time. Everyone runs inside the Sheriff’s Station. Father Khatri looks to his left and sees a group of monsters slowly approaching. As he turns toward the Sheriff’s Station, a monster he didn’t see coming from his right flank slashes his throat. Boyd shot at the monster, and pulled Father Khatri inside.
Father Khatri didn’t want the end to be like this. He asks Boyd to pray with him. They start the “Our Father” prayer as he gasps for air. He dies as Boyd finishes the prayer. The screen goes dark.
