This place is fucking with your head

because it knows how much you miss your dad!

I watched you have two seizures in two days.

You're only angry at me right now because you know I'm right.

When I found Mom out by the Bottle Tree, I saw him.

He was eating her.

What's wrong with you?!

- Show him what he did! - Okay. Okay. Okay.

There's something about those dolls.

I think I've seen them before.

No! No!

- We have to... - Donna!

- Donna! - Donna!

What just happened?

I remembered.

I remembered how to hurt them.

Boyd.

I think the mushrooms kicked in.

Oh.

Show me what I used to know.

It's me. When I was 12 years-old.

This is where the children were sacrificed.

Tell me how we save them when we've already failed!

Hi, Jade.

No! No!

Anghkooey.

Jade! Jade! Hey, hey!

How the fuck did we get here?

Jade, you never left.

I know what we have to do to go home.

I know how we can save the children.

You can't be serious.

I am telling you it is the only way.

To what? To get everyone killed?

You wanna go into those tunnels

where those things live, because you think the bones

of those children are buried down there?

Yes!

It's getting late, all right?

We should get some sleep.

Listen, I... I understand that this all seems a little shaky...

A "little shaky"?

Is that how you'd describe this, a little shaky?

We knew going into this, it was an out-of-the-box swing.

If you're just gonna flatly reject everything I found

based on how I found it,

then what the fuck did I even do this for?

All right, all right...

All right.

Let's just forget for a second that you saw all this

during a mushroom-infused fever dream, let's just...

...let's just put that aside for a second.

Even if you're right, right,

and the bones are down there...

so what?

How does finding bones help us go home?

I'm not entirely sure yet.

Right.

Bones.

Okay, listen to me,

there are countless examples throughout history

of cultures, of religions that hold the remains...

the remains of the deceased... in great reverence.

What do you think the Egyptians mummified their rulers for?

This place, this fucking nightmare that we are stuck in,

was built...

on a sacrifice.

What if the bones

are what anchor the spirits of those children here?

I mean, have you ever wondered why those creatures

never come out of the tunnels during the day?

What if they're down there protecting the very thing

that makes this place possible?

Which brings me back to the part where you get everyone killed.

Nah. Not if we do it right.

Oh. Okay.

Tell me what the right version of this plan looks like.

Well, I mean, that's sort of where you come in.

Look, I realize that there are a lot of things in your head

right now that may turn out to be really important.

But look at it from where I'm standing.

You want me to help plan a suicide mission

because of some things that you saw in a mushroom trip!

What do I have to do,

what do I have to do to prove to you this is real?

Yeah, I don't know.

- The door. - What?

You and I went into the basement in Colony House.

I already told you, we didn't go anywhere.

Yeah, that's right, we didn't.

And I've never been inside the basement at Colony House

so I would have no way of knowing

what it looks like down there.

Jade, describing the basement of Colony House

isn't gonna prove...

There was a hidden door.

Do you remember seeing any doors

in the basement of Colony House?

No.

So if we go there,

and we find that door,

would you at least consider

what I'm telling you about these bones is true?

It'd be a start.

Come on. Here you go. All right.

Explain to me why this was fun for your generation?

- We didn't have phones. - Interesting.

It's like social media from the Stone Age.

This is it! This, this is the basement I saw.

It's a little more organized.

Yeah, we're trying to build a narrative

for the people that came before us.

See if we missed anything...

Boyd's just trying to keep me busy

because he knows that I want to kill myself.

Oh. How's that going?

I haven't slit my wrists yet.

So it's going well then.

What do you need?

I'm looking for a secret door that I saw

while I was on mushrooms I found in the forest.

People have strange conversations here.

Yahtzee!

Come on! Gimme a hand!

Okay.

Come on!

Just gimme a hand! Come on!

No, no, no. No, no, no. It's supposed to be here.

- Jade... - It's supposed to be here!

Everything else... Everything else is exactly the same!

All right. Jade...

It's supposed to be here.

"

Maybe the door... Maybe... maybe it's just a metaphor.

Maybe the bones were a metaphor.

No! No! Listen. Look.

I understand that you have doubts.

Okay, if the situation were reversed, I'd have doubts too.

And I realize what I'm suggesting is incredibly risky...

It's fucking suicide.

Maybe... Maybe for some, yeah.

Oh, you're okay with that?

What, we lose a couple of people?

Maybe a dozen? How many is too many, Jade?

How many people are gonna die if you keep

sitting on your goddamn hands doing nothing?

How many have you already lost, huh?

What the fuck did you say to me?

Say it again! Go ahead! Say it again!

Boyd, there is only so long

that you can hold this place together

with grit and good intentions.

At some point, something's gonna give.

Something's gonna change.

You're gonna lose this whole fucking town.

Don't push me, Jade.

This is our chance, Boyd.

I went looking for answers and I found answers.

This is our shot.

What was that about?

Let's go outside.

So, Jade thinks that digging up these bones

is gonna somehow help us get home?

If the bones are even down there in the first place, yeah.

That's his theory.

And Jade and Tabitha have these memories because...

reincarnation.

Yeah.

Boyd, what do you think?

If you'd asked me before I got worms under my skin,

or before I found magic rocks in the forest

that protect us from monsters, what the...

Oh, look, I wasn't...

I wasn't tryin' to keep any of this from you.

- I just... - I know, I know, I know.

And I know things haven't exactly been quiet lately.

They have not.

Remember the good old days when we used to count the nights

where nothing bad would happen?

If you'd have told me that was the good part...

There is something else we need to talk about.

Look.

Oh my God, what's he doing?

Hey. What's goin' on?

- Victor's on the roof. - What?

- Shit. - What the...

Goddammit.

Victor!

Pretty nice view.

What are you doing up here?
