[Boyd] Previously on From...
Everything's so... nice
in that place I've seen.
Victor...
he wears a shirt and tie.
And we have a grandson.
He has your eyes.
These things I'm seeing...
could they be real?
[heart monitor beeping]
Do you want to stay here, Henry?
How?
You have to forcibly disconnect.
You have to eliminate the anchor.
This morning, I saw this.
Is it possible that I'm turning into one of them?
No.
That's not what's happening.
Tell her that's not what's happening.
Her heart rate is 19 beats per minute.
That's impossible.
Fatima shouldn't even be alive right now.
This is the chamber where the bones are buried, right?
What happens when they block
our only exit out of that chamber?
We are standing
right above the cavern those bones are buried in.
You wanna cut down the tree?
I wanna pull it out by the roots.
What's plan B, when the tree doesn't come out
and we have people barricaded in a death trap
with no place else to go?
You're probably gonna lose some people,
but you could save a whole lot more.
So, suck it up, make a choice, and live with it.
[Thomas] Come to the RV or I'll hurt Julie and Ethan.
You're about to do something you've never done before.
[whimpering]
You may have finally found
the key to setting those children free. Or...
you're about to unleash
a type of suffering you can't even begin to imagine.
[gasps]
This was really nice.
Oh, my God...
He was in my house, Boyd.
That fucking thing was in my house!
-Wait. Are you sure? -Yes!
He had Ethan's drawings!
That means he came inside!
Even with a talisman on the door,
it was inside, in the middle of the day.
[softly] Okay. All right.
He killed Jim.
What? How do you know that?
Because he told me!
-Jesus... -We're not safe here anymore.
Look, hey. I get it, Boyd.
Okay? I know you want to protect everybody.
I know you want to keep everyone safe,
so do I.
That's why I'm gonna be the one going down into those tunnels.
Boyd, listen, there is no
perfect version of a plan, all right?
This is it; this is the best chance we've got!
You're right.
-What? -Walk me through it again.
Wait. What just happened?
That guy in the yellow suit, he's back.
When the sun comes up tomorrow,
I wanna be ready to put shovels in the ground.
We're getting those fucking bones.
[sighs]
[tense music playing]
[groaning]
[bones cracking]
[groaning]
[bones cracking]
[groaning]
[bones cracking]
[screaming]
What are you guys doing?
Boyd told us to gather
all the rope and chain we could find.
For what?
You didn't hear?
When people go into the tunnels tomorrow,
they're gonna dig up those bones.
Really?
Yeah.
Jade, Kenny, and a couple of others, I think.
Wow. I hope it works.
We're gonna be up all night making a rope ladder,
if you wanna come by.
Sounds like fun.
Can you handle this? I'm gonna go check the shed.
-Yeah. -Can I help?
Sure.
You're Clara.
Yeah. Um, Sophia, right?
That's right.
Hm.
But, um...
...do you know who I really am?
What?
Maybe if you look closer.
[chuckles uneasily]
Does this help?
Oh, God.
Do you remember the bargain we made?
Good,
because I need you to do something for me.

Hey.
-Hey. -What are you doing?
How's Fatima?
She's doing the jigsaw puzzle.
I told her it was a cognitive test.
Good; that should keep her occupied for a bit.
What are you looking for?
Epinephrine shot from the ambulance.
I swear I put it in here. I just...
There it is.
'Kay, I gotta go to talk to Boyd.
Just keep her here, keep her busy.
If anything happens,
if her heart stops...
Okay. I've done these shots before.
Right.
-I got it. -Just... be careful.
We don't know what any of this means yet.
-Yeah. -'Kay.
I love you.
Love you too.
[sighs]
Sara?
Hello?
You home?
Come on in.
[door slams]
Let's go to my room.
[tense music play]
Sara painted it for me.
Isn't that lovely?
It's not my favorite color.
Come sit.
You don't have to be scared.
When you first came here, we made a bargain,
and I told you, at some point,
that I was gonna need your help.
That day we met, I...
started to wonder if it was real.
Are you really gonna let me go home?
First, you need to help me with something.
You want me to stop them from digging up the bones.
Oh, no.
You see...
when they go into those tunnels tomorrow,
that's not gonna work out very well.
They have the right idea, of course,
but this place...
it's built on ritual,
and with rituals, how you do something
is just as important as what you do.
Then, what do you need from me?
Do you like games, Clara?
Answer me when I ask you a question.
Yes. Yeah, I-I like games, I guess.
I love them.
I'm playing so many right now, but...
there's one or two
that need a little push,
speed things up a bit.
Give me your hand.
Clara, give me your hand
or I'm going to do horrible things to you.
That's a good girl.
[gasps]
This next part will feel strange.
[gasps]
Just relax.
Let me in.
[exhaling sharply]
[breathing heavily]
So, once the group in the tunnels have the bones,
then we pull the tree, and then we get 'em out with the ladder
that they're putting together at the, uh, diner.
And how are the people in the tunnels
gonna protect themselves while they're digging?
Those things down there wake up, they're fucked!
We're gonna cover the entrance to the chamber with a tarp.
We're gonna hang a talisman on it, and it should be
-as good as a wall. -Yep.
If the talismans work down there.
We haven't exactly field-tested them yet.
It'll work.
Listen, I don't wanna be the asshole,
but once you pull out that tree,
it's like opening a window.
Talismans or not, those things are coming inside.
[Donna sighs]
Whoever's in that tunnel is gonna get slaughtered
long before they climb that ladder.
Once the bones are out of the ground,
they'll keep the chamber safe.
Come again?
It's why they're buried.
Those things down there are afraid of them;
I could feel it in my trip.
Once we have the bones out of the ground,
they will keep those things from coming into the chamber,
at least long enough for everyone to get out.
You are putting a whole lotta faith
in a handful of mushrooms.
Okay. Let's say this works.
Let's say you actually dig up these magical bones
and get outta the chamber alive,
what happens next?
We all just gonna hop in our cars and go home?
We don't know.
Of course not.
You have figured out just enough
to get yourself killed, but not what to do if you actually--
Look, we can't wait around for this prick in the yellow suit
to keep picking us off one by one!
I know!
I just hope you're right.
[Kristi] Boyd?
Kristi?
-Can we talk? -[Boyd] Wha...
Um, Jade and I will go get those radios started.
Okay. Uh, we'll finish.
Hey, what's up?
Let's-- yeah, let's go for a walk.
Come on.
I, um, I don't know how to say this,
but Fatima is presenting with the vital signs...
[speaking inaudibly]
You okay, Henry?
Why is this here?
-What? -Did someone...
bring it in their car?
Who travels with a carousel horse?
I just figured it was always here.
I baked some cookies. Do you want one?
No, thank you.
I don't blame you.
I always used to bake when I was nervous.
It used to help with my...
It used to help. But...
...nothing ever really turns out the same here.
Yeah.
Someone'll be hungry enough.
[PA beeps, indistinct chatter]
Dad? Dad.
-It's okay. -[Henry gasps]
Hey.
Hey!
Hey. Okay. It's okay.
Wha...
Dad.
Hey. Look, I got your favorite.
I even-- I brought some provolone cheese from home.
Here.
Just like you like it.
Yeah.
Yeah?
So, have you thought about
what Doctor Boyd said?
Doc-- Doctor Boyd?
Yeah.
That's-- That's right,
the sheriff's name is Boyd.
How do you know that?
Because you mumble sometimes, Dad;
so we've heard all the names - Boyd and Donna,
Ethan...
I-I-I...
Yeah.
Okay. I'm, um, okay.
Have you thought about what she said
about the anchor that's keeping you there?
[stammers] Yeah, I can't-- I can't. No.
Okay. Why?
No, because...
Because it's you.
Victor, you're the anchor. You're the anchor.
You're-- You're-- you're what's keeping me there.
So, the doctor wants me to eliminate you?
To kill you? No. I...
Dad...
-No! -Dad, that's not me.
No, that broken boy who grew up alone,
he's not-- he's not real.
He's not real, Dad. Look at me.
I'm not alone. I'm here.
Yeah.
Okay.
I have a family,
one that misses you very much.
And if what the doctor is saying is true,
and you just let go of that-- that version of me,
then you get to come back to us.
Isn't that what you want?
Don't you want that?
Well, of course. Of c...
But how-- how could I? Even if--
Even if I wanted to, how could I...?
You know, with my bare hands? Or...
Dad, the doctor said that
once you accept that it's a dream,
the dream is gonna provide you with everything that you need.
You just need to accept it isn't real.
But how can I do that?!
[gasp]
[Victor] Dad?
-[groans] -Dad?
Are you okay?
[clears throat]
I'm-- I'm fine.
Well, you don't look fine.
I'm...
-Dad, please-- -I...
need you to just...
I need to be alone right now.
Dad...
[door closes]
And where is she now?
We're trying to keep her at the clinic as long as possible.
Marielle's up there with her now.
Okay.
Boyd, what's the plan here?
I don't know.
Okay, you're gonna have to do a bit better than that.
I can't, all right? I'm--
Okay.
Okay, how 'bout we talk to Ellis?
No. No.
You do not talk to Ellis. You don't talk to Fatima.
The best thing we can do right now
is get her the fuck outta here,
and that means tomorrow has to work.
Okay, I'm gonna need you to come out there.
-Boyd, I-- -We got a group of people
going down into those tunnels.
I don't know what kinda shape
they're gonna be in when they come out.
Somebody gets hurt, we might not have time
to make it to the clinic.
So, Marielle stays with Fatima,
you bring as many supplies as you can out to the Bottle Tree.
We're gonna-- we're gonna get through this.
And then, we're-- we're gonna go home.
We are gonna go home.
What? What do you mean he was here?
He was in the house?
Yeah.
Why didn't the talisman stop him from coming in?
I don't know.
Is he the one that killed Dad?
Yes.
Was it because what you and Jade figured out?
Is that what "knowledge comes at a cost" means?
Yes.
[Julie] Okay, so, who's next?
You're still looking for answers, right?
Who's he gonna kill next?
Ethan?
Me?
I'm not going to let that happen.
How? How are you gonna stop that, Mom?
Can't you see what this place is doing to you?
It lies. Do you honestly believe
that you've been here over and over and over again?
That you're some kind of ancient savior?
I saw the Man in Yellow once.
I saw him standing in the middle of the street,
eating a bunch of dead people.
Wait. What?
I thought that I was traveling through time,
that I could change things and that I could save Dad.
But you know what I was really doing?
I was giving myself seizures.
Where are you going?
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
How do these work?
Who made them? Did you make them?
I don't know.
But if you have all these memories,
you should know this, right?
It doesn't work that way.
Maybe that's because it's not real.
Mom...
this place lies to us so that
we hurt ourselves and we hurt each other.
Please stop giving it what it wants.
[pensive music playing]
[ominous music playing]
[winces]
[groans]
[winces]
[ominous music playing]
-[Marielle] Hey. -Hey.
Everything okay?
Yeah. I, um...
I just brought something for Fatima.
A family remedy.
Uh, she's inside.
Great.
Hey, Fatima.
Hey.
What are you doing here?
I heard you weren't feeling great, so I made this for you.
What is it?
It's, uh, an old family recipe,
a mix of berries, herbs.
I had to improvise with a couple of ingredients.
That's very sweet. Thank you.
You really need to drink it while it's fresh.
It'll make you feel better; I promise.
Uh, yeah. Sure.
Can't hurt, right?
[chuckling nervously]
I know it doesn't taste great, but, um...
Take care of yourself.
I'll see you back at Colony House.
Yeah.
I'm sorry I don't come here much.
But I don't really know what to think anymore.
Boyd told Dad and I that you're Tabitha now.
If you're Tabitha,
that means that you're not with Eloise.
That means you're not even there.
But I don't know where else to go.
I think there's something wrong with Dad,
and I-I don't know how to help him.
Tabitha says that we're gonna go home...
...but what if he doesn't make it that long?
I don't know things that I'm supposed to say to someone.
Go away.
This is private.
What do you want?
You know what the others are doing?
Going into the tunnels to get the bones,
so everyone can go home.
Did you know they're gonna pull down the tree?
The Bottle Tree?
I've told you before;
that tree is important.
You can't let that happen!
I just want you to know...
that I'm not here for me.
I don't fuckin' like you.
I think I've made that pretty clear.
I've made peace with...
whatever shit you got planned for me.
I'm here for my son.
I'm here for Fatima.
Don't do this. You hear me?
Whatever this shit is you're pulling, don't do this.
Whatever it is you have against me,
there are good people here.
Get these people home! You--
Boyd?
Kristi said you were looking for me.
I need to ask you not to repeat anything I'm about to say.
Okay?
Of course.
All right.
Fatima is down at the clinic, having some tests done.
Uh, her heart rate,
her blood pressure are not...
She should be dead right now.
But, instead, she's walking around like nothing's wrong.
When Fatima went missing,
you came to me and you said the voices were laughing.
Right? Because they knew that I couldn't save her.
But we did. We found her.
She's okay.
The voices were wrong.
We-- We saved her.
Didn't we?
I don't know.
Okay.
I'm coming with you tomorrow.
I wanna be there.
[indistinct chatter in distance]
[door opens]
Hey.
Do you think he was really Dad?
What?
We went to the settlement
because Dad told me to find the Lake of Tears.
Then, bad things happened.
Do you think it was really him?
I don't know, honey.
[exhales heavily]
I think this place tries to make us afraid,
so we won't believe in the things that can help us.
All those things you remember?
You should listen to what it's trying to tell you.
Don't be scared to believe.
Come here. Come here.
[ominous music playing]
Mom?
What's wrong?
And we boosted the signal as much as we could.
We're not gonna be able to talk to each other, but we do have...
[static beeping]
Huh?
Poor man's Morse code.
So, you can signal us from the chamber.
Exactly.
Okay, that's good.
-Nice. -Pack all this up
and bring it to Colony House.
-Yes, sir. -Yeah, we need to-- Victor?
Is it true? Are you pulling down the tree?
The Bottle Tree, are you pulling it down?
We need to make sure that we can get our people
out of the tunnels safely.
-You can't do that! -We don't have a choice.
Victor, this is a good thing.
No, you don't understand. He said you can't.
-Wait. Who said? -The Boy in White;
he said that the tree is important.
You can't pull it down.
Because the Boy in White said not to.
-That's right. -Okay, then,
where is he, Victor? Why doesn't he just come
-in here and tell us himself? -It doesn't work that way!
He told me! He's my friend, and he knows things!
Why won't he help us?
Victor, there are things here,
there are things here that play games with us.
-No. -And I think this little boy
is one of those things.
No! No! You-- you can't do this!
You can't! I'm gonna stop you!
Hey, Vic-- Aww, fuck.
Victor, listen, hey.
Victor? Listen to me.
Slow down. Victor, slow down.
No.
Victor, hey, Buddy. Hey, listen.
I'm gonna need you to come with me to the station, Victor!
Okay? Victor, come here.
-Get off me! -Hey, Victor, come on!
-No! No! -Come!
-No, no! No! -Take it easy!
-No, no! -[Boyd] Okay, Victor, all right.
Stop! [screaming]
Stop it! I am trying to help you!
-I know! -I'm trying to help you!
Yes, Victor. I know, I know, I know.
-I'm sorry, buddy. -[screaming]
I know, I know, I know. There are people...
-You don't understand! -...risking their lives,
and we just can't take...
-Stop! -...any chances.
Okay! Okay. Come on, come on, come on.
-Tabitha! Stop! -No! Wait, wait, wait!
Don't let them do it! Don't let them!
Take him to the station, all right?
-'Kay, Victor, come on! -Why is he in handcuffs?!
Because I'm trying to prevent a problem before it happens.
The Boy in White told him that we can't take down the tree,
so he's gonna try and stop us.
Look, you tell me you wanna scrap this whole thing,
forget about the bones, then I'll let Victor go.
We don't know who the boy is or what he wants.
Exactly! Exactly. Excuse me.
Boyd, wait.
It needs to be me.
I need to be the one who goes down into the tunnels,
Hey, we've got plenty of people going down there, and--
Boyd, you don't understand.
It needs to be only me and Jade.
What? Hold on, this--
Boyd, we're the ones
who failed to save those children.
We're the ones they've been calling to over and over again.
Okay, listen, look.
Look, look, look, look, look. Look at the talisman.
There are two people here, right?
Who do you think those people are?
It has to be us.
I ca-- I can't. I can't.
Something goes wrong, what happens to Julie and Ethan?
Who do you think I'm doing this for?
Boyd...
we only get to do this once.
And I think here, in this place,
the way that we do this matters.
You have to trust me.
[bell ringing]
Time to get inside.
Oh, um, I thought I'd help out
with the rope ladder in the diner.
It seems really important.
They'll really appreciate that; we all do.
Just doing my part. Goodnight, Sheriff.
Night.
[bell ringing]
[indistinct quiet chatter]
Those buttons don't actually work.
You know, they're just for show.

[Kenny] He's just sitting there.
Yeah, he's angry and he's scared.
Hey, look.
There's something we need to talk about.
You're not coming out there with us tomorrow.
-What? -I need you to stay behind.
No.
Kenny, listen to me.
Listen to me. All planning aside,
we have no idea what's gonna happen tomorrow.
If we end up looking at the worst-case scenario,
okay?
Donna's gonna need some help keeping this place together.
Think of it like a...
a continuity of government in the event of a catastrophe.
You want me to just sit here--
I want you to do your part.
You asked me to stand down
when I wanted to be the one to test the totem, and, hey,
you were right.
I'm asking you to stand down now.
Please.
Okay.

[clears throat]

Yeah.
To better days.
[glasses clink]
I know.
[Ethan] Why can't we just stay at the house?
Honey, you'll be safer here.
Can't somebody else go down in the tunnels?
I wish they could, but it has to be me.
Don't be scared to believe, remember?
What if you don't come back?
Hey. Remember what Jade said.
The bones are gonna protect us when we're down in the chamber.
And once we're back,
we'll be so much closer to going home.
How are the bones gonna protect you?
It's just the way they work.
See?
We're going to be okay.
I love you.
You gotta be strong, okay?
[Ethan] Okay.
-[Tabitha] Okay. -We should get going.
I'll see you in a few hours.
I love you.
I love you too.

I thought you'd want to know; things changed a little,

You should've told me sooner.

I-I still get to go home, right?
Sophia?

there's a person in this photo, um...
