0:00:08 > 0:00:10And if you ever hear his whistle,

0:00:10 > 0:00:13you know something creepy is about to unfold.

0:00:16 > 0:00:19No-one knows where he's from, or where he's going to,

0:00:19 > 0:00:22but somehow he senses when a tale is about to happen.

0:00:23 > 0:00:26He's...drawn to them.

0:00:30 > 0:00:34Have you ever wondered what might be going on behind closed doors?

0:00:34 > 0:00:38A door only just across the street might have behind it something you

0:00:38 > 0:00:40wouldn't get within a mile of.

0:00:55 > 0:00:56SHE SIGHS

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Don't tell me you're still on that level?

0:01:00 > 0:01:01And loving it.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18You won't need to fight the bank robbers.

0:01:18 > 0:01:22Yeah, well, we're not all cheaters like you, little brother.

0:01:22 > 0:01:23Hey!

0:01:23 > 0:01:27I'm offended you would even suggest such a thing.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29Anyway, it's not cheating.

0:01:29 > 0:01:30It's winning without the pain.

0:01:32 > 0:01:33If I don't practise on the bank robbers,

0:01:33 > 0:01:36I won't have the skills for the coin fountain.

0:01:37 > 0:01:38SHE SIGHS

0:05:31 > 0:05:32Weird.

0:05:34 > 0:05:36ALARM SOUNDS

0:05:44 > 0:05:46Well, what you doing over there?

0:05:46 > 0:05:48I didn't want to get behind,

0:05:48 > 0:05:50so I thought I'd catch up on some school work.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53Oh, that can wait, silly.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56Now, I was saving this for your birthday, but I thought you could do

0:05:56 > 0:05:58a cheering up.

0:05:58 > 0:06:00- MUFFLED:- It's a two-headed trick coin.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03You know, heads always wins?

0:06:03 > 0:06:04Stu?

0:06:04 > 0:06:06It's great. Thanks, Mum.

0:06:29 > 0:06:31Whoa.

0:06:31 > 0:06:32False wall.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37How's she so strong?

0:06:47 > 0:06:48She's a freak.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56LIQUID BUBBLES

0:07:00 > 0:07:01What is she doing?!

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Stu?

0:07:08 > 0:07:10Mum, something majorly weird is going on.

0:07:10 > 0:07:11What are you doing in my room?

0:07:11 > 0:07:15Mrs McMurtle was carrying crates of cat food bigger than her!

0:07:15 > 0:07:17And she was pouring them into the cauldron in a hidden space in the

0:07:17 > 0:07:19- garage...- Oh, you're all hot.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21Just look, there's a false wall in the garage!

0:07:21 > 0:07:22Oh, my days.

0:07:22 > 0:07:23What? What?

0:07:23 > 0:07:25This fever's worse than I thought.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27Now, you're hallucinating.

0:07:27 > 0:07:28Come on, bed.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30- But the wall...- Bed!

0:07:31 > 0:07:33HE SIGHS

0:07:40 > 0:07:41DOGS BARKING

0:07:55 > 0:07:57CAMERA BEEPS

0:08:15 > 0:08:17Ugh!

0:08:21 > 0:08:23What is she doing?

0:08:25 > 0:08:26Grim!

0:08:37 > 0:08:38GROWLING

0:08:38 > 0:08:40HE GASPS

0:08:45 > 0:08:47Oh, great.

0:09:23 > 0:09:24"Steals your body."

0:09:33 > 0:09:35HE GASPS

0:09:35 > 0:09:37- What happened to sleeping? - Mum, she's a monster!

0:09:37 > 0:09:40- Who?- Mrs McMurtle, look!

0:09:40 > 0:09:42I just saw her turn into that!

0:09:42 > 0:09:45Stu, stop this. You're not well.

0:09:45 > 0:09:48Look for yourself. She's bathing in melted cat food!

0:09:48 > 0:09:51This is the little old lady across the street we're talking about?

0:09:51 > 0:09:52She's also one of them!

0:09:52 > 0:09:54I saw her change!

0:09:54 > 0:09:56- A koekoeken!- Enough.

0:09:56 > 0:09:58If you're well enough to be making up stories,

0:09:58 > 0:10:00you're well enough to go to school.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Wait.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05If she's not a monster, then maybe she's losing her marbles.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07Why else would someone do that?

0:10:07 > 0:10:10Well, maybe you didn't see what you think you saw.

0:10:10 > 0:10:13What if I did and she needs help?

0:10:13 > 0:10:15We should call the police.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17They can go over and check it out.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19She could be in danger.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21I'm not calling the police over this.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24I'll go over and check out the garage.

0:10:24 > 0:10:25What? No!

0:10:25 > 0:10:28- Mum, you can't.- Don't worry, I'm not going to embarrass you.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31I won't tell her you were spying on her when you've should've been

0:10:31 > 0:10:33in bed. I'll just pretend I'm there to borrow her lawn mower.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36Mum, please. I don't want you going over there alone.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38I think I can handle a little old lady.

0:10:51 > 0:10:53Don't answer, don't answer.

0:10:57 > 0:10:58Oh, no.

0:11:06 > 0:11:08Mum, keep focused!

0:11:18 > 0:11:19Man...

0:11:24 > 0:11:26HE SIGHS

0:11:31 > 0:11:32Be careful, Mum.

0:11:39 > 0:11:40PHONE RINGS

0:11:40 > 0:11:42Don't answer the phone!

0:11:46 > 0:11:47What's that?

0:11:49 > 0:11:50She'll be back soon!

0:11:54 > 0:11:56The wall, Mum. The false wall.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02Keep looking. I know it's there.

0:12:05 > 0:12:07Yes, I knew it!

0:12:10 > 0:12:11What?

0:12:11 > 0:12:13No.

0:12:13 > 0:12:15The bath, she's hidden it.

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Turn around, Mum. Turn around!

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Mum, behind you.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27She's coming!

0:12:28 > 0:12:32Oh, thank you. Your garage is...

0:12:32 > 0:12:33No.

0:12:38 > 0:12:39Kidding me.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46Look what the monster sent over for you.

0:12:46 > 0:12:50She's perfectly sane by the way, unlike some people.

0:12:50 > 0:12:55That gardening stuff, it must've been a false wall or something.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57She must've moved the bath.

0:12:57 > 0:12:59We're not talking about this any more.

0:12:59 > 0:13:00You are going straight back to bed,

0:13:00 > 0:13:03while I take care something at the office.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06- Since when?- I got a call while I was at Mrs McMurtle's.

0:13:06 > 0:13:08Don't worry. I've arranged a baby-sitter.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10Thanks for the idea, by the way.

0:13:10 > 0:13:12No more monsters!

0:13:20 > 0:13:21Baby-sitter?

0:13:21 > 0:13:22DOORBELL RINGS

0:13:22 > 0:13:24Oh, no.

0:13:26 > 0:13:27DOORBELL RINGS

0:13:30 > 0:13:32DOORBELL RINGS

0:13:46 > 0:13:49Hello, duck. Aren't you going to invite me in?

0:13:50 > 0:13:54So, your mum tells me you're ill?

0:13:54 > 0:13:56What is it, duck? A poorly head?

0:13:57 > 0:14:00You need vinegar and brown paper.

0:14:02 > 0:14:05"Jack fell down and broke his crown.

0:14:06 > 0:14:11"Up Jack got and home did trot as fast as he could caper.

0:14:11 > 0:14:16"He went to bed and bound his head with vinegar and brown paper."

0:14:19 > 0:14:20Care for a mint, duck?

0:14:22 > 0:14:23Oh, well.

0:14:23 > 0:14:25Your loss is my gain.

0:14:25 > 0:14:30This old lady routine might work on my mum, but you don't fool me.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Routine?

0:14:32 > 0:14:33I saw you in the garage.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36I know you did, duck.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38I made sure of it.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40I got your attention with the delivery...

0:14:42 > 0:14:45..and I allowed you to see my sure strength on the driveway.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48And then, the garage.

0:14:51 > 0:14:52GROWLING

0:14:52 > 0:14:56You needed to see everything you saw today.

0:14:56 > 0:14:59I wanted your mum to come over.

0:14:59 > 0:15:04It only took one fake phone call to get her out of the house.

0:15:06 > 0:15:07Why?

0:15:07 > 0:15:09So, I could end up here...

0:15:09 > 0:15:12with you...

0:15:12 > 0:15:13alone.

0:15:18 > 0:15:23Do you think you're the only one that spies on your neighbours, duck?

0:15:24 > 0:15:27SHE CHUCKLES

0:15:27 > 0:15:30I've seen you, at the end of every term,

0:15:30 > 0:15:34break into your poor father's study and copy his exam questions.

0:15:35 > 0:15:40I suppose you sell them on to fellow cheats at a price?

0:15:42 > 0:15:44Bingo.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46Why would you do all this?

0:15:46 > 0:15:48What would you do, duck,

0:15:48 > 0:15:52if at the end of your life you could start all over

0:15:52 > 0:15:55by taking a fresh new body?

0:16:00 > 0:16:04I've taken many forms over the years.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08SCREAMING

0:16:14 > 0:16:17When I acquired this body,

0:16:17 > 0:16:19it wasn't much younger than you.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23Acquired? You mean stole?

0:16:23 > 0:16:25Oh, no, duck.

0:16:25 > 0:16:28I didn't steal it.

0:16:28 > 0:16:29It were given to me.

0:16:31 > 0:16:36Just like you are going to give me yours.

0:16:38 > 0:16:41I'm looking forward to being a boy again.

0:16:49 > 0:16:50You looking for this?

0:16:53 > 0:16:56I expect you're wondering about the cat food.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59It's the taurine inside -

0:16:59 > 0:17:00we need it for nourishment.

0:17:02 > 0:17:07Of course, 500 years ago, there was no cat food.

0:17:07 > 0:17:11We had to boil up cow's urine to sustain us.

0:17:11 > 0:17:13SHE CHUCKLES

0:17:13 > 0:17:15Can you imagine?

0:17:15 > 0:17:16KNOB TURNS

0:17:20 > 0:17:22KNOB TURNS AGAIN

0:17:26 > 0:17:28I've written a letter, duck.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30All I have to do is post it.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34- What letter?- To your school.

0:17:34 > 0:17:39Imagine what they'd say when they find out that you've been selling

0:17:39 > 0:17:41exam questions.

0:17:41 > 0:17:45You'd be expelled...instantly.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48People would know that you're a cheat.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51Your father's the vice principal.

0:17:51 > 0:17:53He'd be fired.

0:17:53 > 0:17:59And your loving sister Kelly, she works so hard for her grades.

0:17:59 > 0:18:04Imagine if people thought she were involved, too.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06I don't want to do that.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08I just want you to play the game.

0:18:09 > 0:18:11What game?

0:18:11 > 0:18:15The koekoeken are not without their morals, duck.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17I can't just take your body.

0:18:17 > 0:18:21First, I have to win it.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23How?

0:18:23 > 0:18:28Best of three games of chance - of the host's choosing.

0:18:28 > 0:18:30And if you lose?

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Then I stay in this body.

0:18:33 > 0:18:37Sometimes the koekoeken don't live for ever.

0:18:37 > 0:18:41It all depends on how well you play the game.

0:18:48 > 0:18:49This game...

0:18:50 > 0:18:52..it can be anything I choose?

0:18:52 > 0:18:53Mm-hm.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00OK, the game is heads or tails.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02I call heads.

0:19:06 > 0:19:08Oh, now, Stu.

0:19:08 > 0:19:11You know I see everything,

0:19:11 > 0:19:14including Mummy's little presents.

0:19:15 > 0:19:16Choose another game.

0:19:20 > 0:19:21I know.

0:19:22 > 0:19:23Why don't we...

0:19:25 > 0:19:27..play cards?

0:19:31 > 0:19:36We both choose a card and the highest card wins,

0:19:36 > 0:19:41so all you have to do is to pick a card higher than me.

0:19:41 > 0:19:42Easy.

0:19:54 > 0:19:55Oh, my dear duck.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57What are the chances?

0:19:57 > 0:19:59That's one-nil to me.

0:19:59 > 0:20:03Lose again and you lose your body.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05SHE GIGGLES

0:20:17 > 0:20:19SHE GASPS

0:20:19 > 0:20:20HE SIGHS

0:20:20 > 0:20:22It's all down to the final game.

0:20:22 > 0:20:24Winner takes all.

0:20:26 > 0:20:27My turn to pick.

0:20:35 > 0:20:36Oh, my.

0:20:37 > 0:20:41You do know the only thing that beats a king is an ace?

0:20:42 > 0:20:44I don't want to play any more.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46If you don't play, you forfeit.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48I win by default.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59HE SIGHS

0:21:13 > 0:21:14SHE GASPS

0:21:14 > 0:21:17- Boom!- No.

0:21:17 > 0:21:18No!

0:21:18 > 0:21:20HE CRACKS HIS KNUCKLES

0:21:24 > 0:21:25SHE GASPS

0:21:29 > 0:21:31You cheated!

0:21:32 > 0:21:34It's not cheating.

0:21:34 > 0:21:36It's winning without the pain.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40You!

0:21:51 > 0:21:53Stu, breakfast is ready.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00Finish up, now. Can't be late this morning.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08I'd show you a cool trick with those,

0:22:08 > 0:22:11but I know you don't like cheating.

0:22:12 > 0:22:14No, I don't know.

0:22:14 > 0:22:15People can change...

0:22:17 > 0:22:18..can't they, duck?

0:22:22 > 0:22:27Turns out Kelly would do anything to protect you from being expelled,

0:22:27 > 0:22:29including playing a harmless little card game.

0:22:36 > 0:22:38What have you done?

0:22:40 > 0:22:43Thank you for teaching me that camera trick, Stu,

0:22:43 > 0:22:45otherwise I might never have beaten Kelly.

0:22:46 > 0:22:51But it isn't cheating, right, duck?

0:22:51 > 0:22:54It's simply...winning...

0:22:54 > 0:22:55without the pain.

0:23:04 > 0:23:07A quick cheat, a lifetime to regret.
