00:00 (door opens)
00:02 - Sup Martin?
00:08 Hey man, sorry I couldn't help out this morning.
00:20 Had to work that Dolly Parton shift.
00:21 Yo Martin, you okay?
00:29 - Where'd you go?
00:31 - Uh, nothing much.
00:39 - What's the box?
00:52 - I don't really know to be honest.
00:58 - What do you mean? How'd it get here?
01:00 - Pretty sure it's mine.
01:02 I think it was a birth present or something.
01:06 I mean one day it just appeared in my room.
01:09 I used to spend nights just staring at it
01:13 for hours and hours.
01:14 And then one day my mom, who was always a cautious person,
01:20 noticed me, caught in its gaze,
01:24 just staring motionless.
01:28 And I just couldn't believe it.
01:30 After that night, I never saw it again.
01:37 I used to think it was just all in my head, but,
01:42 it wasn't.
01:44 Then this morning, we were moving out my mom's house,
01:50 I looked in the attic and there it was, just sitting there.
01:54 This whole time it was right above me,
01:55 and I didn't even know it.
01:57 - Did she ever tell you what was in it?
02:01 - I never got to ask her.
02:02 - What do you think's in it?
02:07 - I don't know.
02:08 I was thinking about finding out.
02:10 (door creaking)
02:26 - I can't tell if there's nothing in there,
02:28 or if everything is in there.
02:30 Can't even begin to paint a picture of what's in that thing.
02:33 - I know.
02:34 It's like a blank canvas and all you have is white paint.
02:37 - Listen, Martin, you cannot open this thing.
02:47 - Yeah?
02:48 Why not?
02:49 - It's not normal.
02:50 Whatever's in there should be left alone.
02:54 - Look, can we please, please, please get some help
02:58 before you do something that could be incredibly stupid?
03:01 Someone else might know what to do.
03:07 - All right, all right.
03:10 We can get some help.
03:12 - And?
03:14 - You said your mom gave it to you?
03:18 And what are our working theories?
03:22 - Well, I've personally never seen anything like this before.
03:25 I don't think any of us have.
03:27 - Clearly your mom knew something about it that we don't.
03:31 I mean, she had to have hidden it for a reason,
03:33 but she never got rid of it.
03:36 That means she probably wanted you to have it eventually.
03:38 - Or she just couldn't get rid of it.
03:42 I mean, no offense, Lily,
03:44 but you just can't just throw this away.
03:47 Can't even throw away light bulbs in a trash can.
03:50 - The attic was the safest place for this.
03:53 I suggest that we just leave it somewhere.
03:55 It'll never be found or opened.
03:58 - I sort of agree with Sean.
03:59 - His mom threw it away for a reason.
04:02 - Yeah, but he was also given it for a reason.
04:05 - Or maybe there is no reason.
04:08 - Look, no matter which one you agree with,
04:19 they both agree that you shouldn't open it anytime soon.
04:23 I can't ignore it.
04:24 - Yes, you can.
04:26 - I never said you should ignore it.
04:27 You have to deal with it and live with it.
04:29 You have to--
04:30 - That thing is dangerous.
04:31 - But it's his.
04:32 - We don't even know if it's his.
04:33 - What are you supposed to do?
04:34 Just lock it in a safe and throw it at the TV?
04:35 - I don't see why you shouldn't do that.
04:36 - It is, it's a serious issue.
04:37 - You didn't ask for this.
04:38 Why should you--
04:39 - Guys, guys, let's calm down.
04:40 - We need to help Martin.
04:41 - We are helping.
04:42 - No, don't get into this.
04:43 - How is this helping?
04:44 You are making me lose my mind.

06:12 - Martin?
06:13 I need to know.
06:22 Please don't do it.
06:25 Martin, we don't know what's in there.
06:30 You can't.
06:31 Listen, we were fine before this thing, man.
06:36 We were fine yesterday.
06:37 We were fine this morning.
06:39 Come on.
06:42 Can we please go back to that, man?
06:45 - There was no time before it.
06:48 And I won't be distracted anymore.
