Cat Cam (2026) Movie Script

1
Oh!
Oh my god!
You scared the shit out of me.
Thats not funny.
It was kind of funny.
Where did you even get this creepy thing?
I found it in the closet.
I thought it was one of your weird
Halloween costumes.
I do cute Halloween and
sometimes sexy Halloween,
but never scary Halloween.
Uh huh.
It's just that
you were so busy intently
setting up those stupid cat cams.
Well, theyre new.
I wanna make sure they work.
Yeah, but you've gone overboard.
We've left the country before
and not had any cameras.
I'm just worried about Nug.
I mean, we haven't left her home alone
since we moved in here.
Yeah, but she's not a little blond boy.
She's a cat.
She'll be fine.
Well, do you know where she is?
Because I didn't see her on any of the cat
cams, so maybe I need to get more.
No, I think you have enough.
One would have been enough.
Five is enough.
How many are there exactly?
Oh, look at this.
I found the cat without needing a camera.
One camera was okay in our little
apartment, but this is a whole house.
I want to know what she's doing.
I wanna know how she's doing it.
Hey baby...
This isn't about our trip, is it?
It's that you don't trust Jay to cat-sit.
Well, he's an idiot.
He's my brother.
I said what I said.
He can take care of a cat.
She'll be fine.
Yes you will...
Oh, but you're not a cat, are you?
You're a fuzzy princess,
you're a fuzzy little princess.
Riley.
Take a deep breath.
You know what?
Im going to go pack you more Xanax.
Probably smart.
Is that seriously, another cat camera?
No...
Okay yes, but this one is different.
It dispenses treats. See?
So I can talk through it and
Nug will come out
after I give her a treat.
It'll be great.
Take it back.
We don't need it. And Nug
certainly doesn't need any more treats
Dont fat shame our cat, okay?
The vet said that she's healthy, husky.
The vet was flirting with you.
Well, that's because me
and Nug are both adorable.
Please, I--
I just--
Nugs been weird since we moved here,
and I just feel bad about leaving her.
You're lucky I love you.
Yes, yes, I am.
All right, let's give this a try.
Okay.
All right.
Here we go.
So all I have to do
is push this button and--
Wow!
Look at that.
- She likes it.
It works.
Okay, let me show you something else.
- Okay.
So with this camera--
Look at this.
I can adjust it.
So even if Nug moves off camera,
we can still see her.
Oh, and I forgot to show you,
I can talk through the camera
on the treat dispenser.
Hi, baby.
Oh. Ha!
Sound investment.
Just wait until we're halfway
around the world.
You will thank me.
What was that?
It came from the bedroom.
Thats weird.
Did you not close the door all the way?
I thought I did.
Another strange thing happens.
That I'm sure there's a perfectly
reasonable explanation for.
If only we had a camera.
Oh, wait.
Funny.
That's so creepy.
It's an old house.
The floors not level, probably.
And the door's, like, 80 years old.
It probably doesn't even close.
- It seemed fine to me.
Hey-oh!
Thatll be Jay.
Coming!
- Impeccable timing as always.
Happy house warming!
Youre early.
Yeah, well, I'm trying to be punctual.
Theres a first time for everything.
Hey, Riley, nice to see you too.
Shoes off please.
Okay, sure.
Let me show you around.
Okay.
Made a lot of improvements
since you last saw the place
when we bought it.
Oh my God!
You know, dining space coming along.
- So clean.
What is this? Look at this. What is this?
Playground?
- Cat tree.
Cat tree.
Got the blue tile, just like
at moms house.
It's the exact same one.
I'm gonna leave these here.
Yeah, just leave them on the counter.
- Okay.
Cool, get your sweat on.
- Yeah.
Got the big TV put in and everything.
Oh, is this like, the frame?
It looks like the pictures?
- Kind of like the endless thing.
Cool. Hi.
Hi!
Okay!
- Theres Nug.
Sammy this place is incredible.
Riley, you two, congrats!
I mean, this is such--
I'm stoked!
I'm stoked you got it.
If Sams good at one thing,
its finding a deal.
Hey, I'm not afraid of a good bargain.
I know.
- Dad taught us that.
Oh, she only drinks filtered water.
She's serious.
I read our city's water report.
It's not good.
Yeah. Cool.
Let me just write this stuff down.
Don't worry.
I have it all printed out for you.
- Oh, cool.
And there's a picture of Nug at the top
in case you forget what she looks like.
Or you can just look at, like,
any of the pictures around the house.
Hey, I am not going to apologize
for my art choices, all right?
If you've got it, flaunt it.
And Nug has got it.
No, I love them! These cat
pieces are cool.
You bullshitting me?
No. I'm serious.
Theyre really cool.
I mean, like, contemporary and stuff.
Oh, well, speaking of shit...
let me show you the cat box.
Riley, I'm pretty sure he
knows how to scoop poop.
Well, it could be a different type
than he's used to.
No, I'd love to. I'd love to.
You mocking me again?
No. I'm not.
Im serious.
I'm just gonna make sure
that Nug has extra food.
I mean, how have I pissed her off already?
I don't understand.
She's been acting more high strung
than usual.
Both her and Nug are having a
hard time adjusting to the new house.
How? This is like a massive
upgrade from the last place.
Yeah, but Nug keeps getting spooked,
and Riley says that she hears weird noises.
What, like this place is haunted?
That is not a real thing.
And don't let her hear you say that,
because she is already acting
neurotic enough.
I wasn't trying to make
her feel bad earlier.
I promise.
I really want to prove to her
and to you that I can do this.
Okay?
And I know how pissed you
two are about me
breaking the window in your
last place, so it's like--
Its fine.
Honestly,
Okay.
Whoa.
Now, she definitely won't run out.
Oh, but only give her one scoop
because we've got her on a diet.
Nug, your cat--
Shes on a diet?
Don't don't stress about it.
It's just for ten days.
So if you don't get the scoop right
its not a big deal.
- Yeah, not stressed at all.
I've got this covered, you know,
I've got my my list.
I've got my hang buddy.
You know, me and Nug, Im gonna
come over and were gonna party.
Aint that right, Nug?
No parties. Please.
No, I didn't mean I was gonna--
Right.
No, I will come every day.
I will check on Nug.
I will follow this list to the tee,
and then I will leave.
And if anything goes wrong,
you can call or text us anytime. Yes.
Yes, I splurged on the
international data plan.
Cool...
Okay, I'm going to walk Jay out.
Hey, have such a fun trip.
It's like I said,
she's been a little extra lately.
Yeah,
Im an idiot.
No, don't worry about it.
Can you go enjoy your trip, please?
Little brother is going to
take care of everything.
I know.
Ah!
Yes, very important.
I can tell that you're trying
to make some changes and improvements.
And I want you to know that
I notice.
Riley doesn't.
Well, Riley will come around.
I was going to wait until
after our trip to tell you this, but,
What the heck?
When we get back, we are going to start
trying to have a baby.
Fuck you.
Oh, I I don't know why,
but I feel like I knew it.
Yeah?
- I'm so happy for you, Sammy!
Thank you.
Am I allowed to scream?
That is incred--
Holy shit.
What?
Im gonna be an Uncle.
Yeah, that's how that works.
I'm gonna be the greatest uncle.
I'm gonna be the greatest uncle.
I'm going to be the guncle.
Call me Guncle.
No.
- Yeah.
No.
100 percent.
- I dont think that word means
what you think it means.
I think I just made it up.
Its like great--
greatest.
And uncle. Guncle.
Why cant I just say that?
Try gay uncle?
Unless there's something
you want to tell us
which, you know, we're
very supportive here.
Oh, shit.
It did sound familiar.
Okay.
No. Not that.
Nothing to tell you.
Awesome.
Best.
Best uncle.
Okay.
- The buncle.
Buncle?
Mr. Buncle.
Uncle Buncle!
Oh, yes!
- Okay.
All right.
Well work on it?
- Yeah.
Okay. Well, I love you.
Love you too.
- Text me all the cool pics from
your cool trip.
I will.
- See you later.
Thank you for watching Nug.
Seriously.
You got it. Uncle Buncle in
the house, baby.
Bye Uncle Buncle.
Bye.
Long talk.
Yeah, I told him about the baby thing.
Were telling people about that?
He's really trying, Riley.
Jay it's just so loud and--
He totaled your car!
And he broke our glass window.
- Yeah, he broke his face.
That's what happens
when you walk into a glass window.
Okay, but he's not, like,
high all the time now.
We are going to be a family soon,
so can you please just go easy on him?
Thank you.
Babe, you good?
- Yeah, Im almost ready.
Okay, your purse is out here.
Thank you.
Oh, man.
I am ready for champagne.
What on earth is that?
It's huge.
It's my suitcase.
I thought we said we
were doing carry ons.
Yeah, but I can't even fit all my jackets
and shoes in a carry on.
And I've got that cute dress
that you like in there.
You are ridiculous.
Are you ready for me to call a car?
Yes. Let me just go pee
really quick, okay?
Okay, go.
Are you--
What the hell, Riley?
You put a camera in the bathroom?
What? Nug Likes to sleep in
the sink sometimes.
That is creepy and gross.
Okay, fine. Fine.
I can't believe you.
I wasn't trying to be creepy, I promise.
But you didn't even tell me
it was in there.
You saw it, didnt you?
I wasn't trying to hide it.
Sorry.
Okay,
Okay, baby.
I love you the most-est.
I love you, I love you.
Oh, I'm gonna miss you so much, baby.
Okay. Don't let uncle Jay
do anything bad, okay?
I love you.
I love you.
Love you.
Oh, wait, baby. Oh.
All right.
Are you ready to go, creeper?
Please, please, please don't
do that the whole trip.
Morning, Nug.
I miss you so much.
Hey, Come say hi to our daughter.
She looks confused.
I don't I don't think she knows it's us.
Of course she knows it's us.
Right, Nuggie?
Your mommies miss you very much.
We just got to France
and we're very tired.
Yes we are, because someone spent
all our extra money
on cat cameras instead of
upgrading to economy plus.
I have no regrets.
Im going to give her a treat.
That's a good girl.
It's dinner time here, Nug,
so I'll check on you later.
I love you.
- I love you, Nuggie.
My God, I can't believe
I'm encouraging this.
Nuggie, Nuggie, Nug. Boom!
Right on time for no man.
That girl.
Lady.
Hey-oh! Nuggie Nugsters!
Uncle Buncle is in the house.
Shoes off.
Bag down.
Nug! Where are you?
Tree.
No. Tree. No cat in the tree.
No kitty cat at the food.
Uh oh!
What is up, sister?
Hi. Hey, hey.
That's right.
Your mom's trusted me to take care of you,
so we are going to be the
best of friends, okay?
We're going to party.
I'm gonna be responsible, okay?
Can I get a kiss?
Oh, no. Pound.
Love you too.
Okay, time for the list.
Time to get it all done.
Okay, where did I put the list?
Fuck.
Okay.
Cats need to eat.
That's right.
You get to eat.
All right.
Very good.
Here you are.
Dinner!
What is this, chicken or turkey?
Not bad, Nug.
Youre living large, huh?
I've had fast food
that's worse than this stuff.
All right, give me a big ol--
A big ol bowl.
Big bowl.
Because there ain't no diets
with Uncle Buncle.
Ain't no diets in this home.
All right,
come on, dude,
isnt that like the sound of joy?
Just gonna sit there?
Huh...
Gross.
Its like a little baby log, man.
Fucking light a candle next time, man.
All right.
Water.
Weird.
All right.
You are all set, Nuggerino.
But your mom's got to hear about this.
No, no.
Hello?
Hey. Oh, shit. Shit.
Sorry. Is it late there?
Like the middle of the night.
What's up?
Oh, man. Sorry.
Oh. Hey, Riley.
Is Nug okay?
- Yeah, Nug is awesome.
Nugs great. Right bud?
Were just broing out, hanging.
Its a great time.
I just want to tell you, your
sink is leaking.
It's got a leak.
Okay, Jay you could have
just texted us that.
Can you turn it off?
Oh, yeah.
Obviously, I turned it off, Sammy.
Im just trying to be thorough.
Can I see Nug?
Okay, you got it, Riley.
But don't say I never got you nothing.
All right, who's that?
Is that mom?
- Hi baby.
Hi Nuggie!
See look at it.
- Hi, its mommies.
It's your mommy's and it's your buncle.
Okay.
All right, Jay were going to
go back to bed, okay?
Okay.
Bonjour.
Fuck, its the only word I know.
Call anytime, just not when
were sleeping. Goodnight.
Goodnight.
- Call anytime.
No, goodnight.
Okay. Gotcha.
Bye, Jay.
- Bye.
Well, that went well.
Alright, you like my finger?
Okay.
Okay.
Sleep well.
Have very fun kitty dreams.
Mwah!
Hello.
My best friend.
Uncle Jay's in the casa.
Best uncle.
Where are you?
Let me see...
What?
Weird.
Nuggie, your mamas are
into some freaky shit.
What the hell?
Blegh, let's get that out of here.
Where are--
Oh, I see you.
I think I see you.
Hi.
You just in your favorite spot, huh?
All the protection of a
big fluffy bed?
What do you want?
You want some food?
Yeah? Okay.
Were gonna feed ya.
Get you nice and fit.
All right, Nug-a-roonie.
La creme de la creme,
my friend.
I learned some French for your moms.
That's cream of the cream.
I don't really know what it means,
but they love it.
Okay...
What is going on here?
What the hell?
Freaking thing...
All right, you're all full up.
Fresh food, fresh wa-wa.
This freakin sink...
Whoa.
You okay?
Hi.
- Hi!
Sorry, is it late there again?
No, it's not that bad.
We're just having dinner.
Little bit of wine.
Getting little loosey?
You guys look like you're having fun.
Having fun, having fun. Whats up?
- Riley.
Riley, always having the most--
Well, all is good here.
What?
- Nothing, just--
Youre looking like youre
having a good time.
I just-- This faucet,
it keeps leaking.
I don't know, Im not really sure.
It does that sometimes, Jay.
Riley was supposed to take
a look at it before we left.
It just wasn't high
on my priority list
with the trip and everything...
Are you sure you didnt
just leave it on?
Yeah, no, Ive been turning
it off of course.
I just, like, I was using it
the other day and
it just keeps doing that, you know?
Are you giving Nug tap water?
What?
No, no
- Are you?
I saw on the list,
it's give Nug water
and that's what I've been doing.
Okay, I will call a plumber and text you
when you can let them in?
Yeah. For sure. Sure thing.
Hows everything else?
Man, thanks for asking.
Yeah, it's going pretty well.
I, actually-- I've been applying
for jobs, and just had a really
really great interview the other day, and,
also been working out a little.
So I'm trying to get some abs going.
I meant with Nug...
Oh, yeah.
Right. Of course.
Yeah, I think, I mean, we're, like,
the best of pals, you know.
Im Uncle Buncle.
So, like, that's great.
And all is good, but,
she's been a bit weird.
She's staying under the bed here a lot.
Shes probably just getting
used to you, Jay.
Yeah, did you try giving her a treat?
She's very food motivated.
Yeah Ive given her the treats.
Ive been giving her the little cat crack.
I've been feeding her.
Okay.
- Yeah.
All right, well,
speaking of food, we're probably going
to get back to dinner.
Okay. Do you want to see if
you can talk to her?
Yes. Oh, yes.
Oh, okay.
There she is.
- Oh baby!
Oh, hey, don't hide behind the pole.
Yeah. Oh.
- Honey...
I knew it.
We miss you baby!
There, she's peeking out.
See, she keeps doing this.
She'll come-- she'll peek out like that.
But then she just goes--
She comes right back under.
So weird.
See? I'm sorry.
Sorry. That was a lot.
I didn't mean to get scare
her that way.
Okay.
But all is good.
We're gonna get back
to our romantic dinner.
Okay.
Escargo for it.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
Bye Jay.
- Bye.
Oh, why?
Why you got to make me
look bad, huh?
You're a freak.
You're a little sexy freak, you know that?
That's just kidding.
I love you, I love you, you're gorgeous.
You're my best friend.
Best friend in the world.
What the fuck?
Nug, dude,
I thought we were friends, man.
Why are you doing this to me? Come on.
This is like the thing.
Okay.
Okay.
So much for coasters.
Now, this is a bad idea.
Just gonna leave it there.
Nuggie...
Oh, I heard you're having a hard time.
Hey, baby girl, theres my Nuggie.
There she is.
Have you been turning the faucet on?
Of course she hasn't.
Why would she do that?
I dont know, but it would be
one explanation.
I can just move the camera to the kitchen
so we can see what's going on.
Love you, Nuggie.
Love you, baby.
Nug!
What's up, little bug?
What is up,
my dude?
Dudette!
Where are you?
I'm back here again.
Hi.
Hi, lover.
Dont hiss. Whats going on?
Never hiss like that.
Okay.
All right.
One sec!
Oh, hey.
Yeah. Thanks for coming.
Just, please-- Oh, look at that.
Got the booties.
- Sure did. Professional.
Thanks for paying.
Oh, it's not actually my house,
so I won't be--
I wont be paying but my sister--
Okay well, I'm here to help
whoever's sink it is that's leaking.
Cool, right on.
Yeah.
Blake
Im Jay.
Jay who doesn't live here?
Yeah.
- Yeah, you wanna maybe--
Yeah. Yeah. Please.
Let's go.
Alright so--
I can't figure it out.
I left it on for you, so you could
just, like, see what's going on, but--
Yeah, let me know.
It looks like the knob was just turned on.
- Right, no, I know that.
I know--
I didn't turn that on, though.
Okay,
let's take a look.
Well, doesn't appear to be
leaking now, though.
The hardware looks fine and
the pipes are not leaking, so...
Look, I dont know what to tell you.
That's what I do every time.
I don't leave it on.
Okay, well, it's an old house, and
sometimes the foundations
are a little uneven and so maybe it's
slowly tilting
and turning itself on or something.
I don't really have a good answer
for you, because
Alright, alright.
- There's nothing wrong.
So. Yeah.
So there's nothing you can do?
I mean, I could try to
replace the whole thing,
but I'm not convinced that
that's your problem.
Right.
Okay.
Weird.
Well,
I mean, what what would you do?
You know, I respect you.
I respect your opinion.
Honestly, I would find out
who in the house is pranking me.
Right, like I said, just me and Nug, so.
Well, maybe there's a
ghost who doesn't care
that we're in drought.
That's for you.
Good luck with your ghost.
Hey, hey.
- Hi.
Howd it go witht he plumber?
Yeah, so she thinks you
have a ghost.
No, I'm not--
I don't think she's wrong.
Im not kidding,
Jay, that is not a real thing.
- What's he saying?
Nothing.
The plumber couldn't
figure out what was wrong.
Oh. That's weird.
We can look into it when we get back.
It's fine.
You know what? Can you go grab
me one of those sparkling waters
from the lobby, please?
Bye.
- Bye, Riley.
I told you not to say
that stuff around Riley.
She's already paranoid as it is.
I dont want her thinking
The house is haunted.
- Okay, well, I don't know--
I don't know what you want me to tell you.
Okay? There's not another
explanation for this.
Yeah, there is that the sink doesn't work.
Okay, fine. Sure, the sink doesn't work.
But how is this happening every time?
I'm not leaving it on.
Okay, sure, that might be a possibility,
but like the plumber said so.
She said so, and I believe women.
Yeah, it's fine.
You know what?
You know, my ex,
Delia, actually used to have a pretty,
pretty good
knack for the supernatural stuff.
Yeah so that was the one who sold
your laptop for her cult initiation fee?
No, that was Delilah.
Jesus.
Delia is the one who writes the
horoscope podcast.
Jay, I just need you to leave
this one alone, okay?
And focus on watching Nug.
Thank you again, and we'll
talk soon, okay?
Let it go.
I'm doing a good job.
All right.
Bye.
Bye.
Hey, bud.
Hey. You doing okay?
I know,
Is there a ghost trying to scare you?
It's just me.
Not to worry.
Look, you and me are
in this together, okay?
There's no ghost
that's going to scare you or scare me.
All right?
Im going to take care of you.
That's why I'm here.
Uncle Buncle.
That's right.
Don't you worry.
You watch.
I'll take care of it.
What do you want, ghost?
What do you want?
Get out of my sister's house!
Yeah,
yeah, that's what I thought.
Don't hear any drip drop now,
do you, motherfucker?
Uncle Jay got you taking care of.
Mwah!
Nuggie Nug...
Uncle Buncle's in the house.
Im gonna take care of you, all right?
I've been reading all night.
We want to get rid of this--
this little spirit in here.
Okay.
Spiritus Sancti,
Spiritus left.
Spiritus right.
Spiritus forward
Spiritus left.
Spiritus right.
I'm gonna take care of
your tree, Nuggie.
All right.
Hey.
Hey Nuggie.
Hey my best friend.
I think we're--
I think were safe now.
Hey, Pal.
Hey. Oh. Hey, baby.
Yeah.
It's okay.
Uncle Buncles going to take
care of everything, all right?
Yeah.
No, I'm here.
Okay.
All right.
I know you're scared. It's okay.
I'm taking care of everything.
Don't worry.
I'm here. Okay?
I'm going to get you a little more food
and a little more water.
Look whos calling.
I'm gonna get her on for you soon, okay?
Hey-o.
- Hi.
What's up?
What's wrong?
It's been a long day.
Riley heard our conversation last night.
How?
She was watch--
It doesn't matter.
Just that she is
very mad at me for not telling her
that you thought there was a ghost.
Oh, no. I'm sure there's a ghost.
Jay...
No, seriously, I was reading up
on it all last night and--
Well, especially with Nug, like,
cats can see things on different planes,
like whole different planes than we can.
So to us, she's probably been
seeing this stuff since like, you moved in.
This is too much.
No, it's the truth.
I'm telling you,
I think we we got to take care of it.
I'm going to take care of it.
Just leave it, okay?
No, see, I know you want to do
that, but, like online,
they were saying if you
leave it for too long, that the
the haunting can just get worse and worse,
and especially if you've made it mad.
And for some reason, I think
it's a little something.
Jay, please stop.
Please. Okay?
Riley is very upset.
She's so not happy.
She wants to cancel the trip
and come home early.
No, dont!
Hey, Sammy, don't do that, okay?
Just enjoy your trip.
Really.
It's--I've done the research.
I've got this.
Okay? I'm going to take care of it.
Fine, just be careful.
Yeah, I've done the research,
I know.
Im gonna take really good
care of Nug.
We're all good.
Okay.
- Nuggie says hello.
Okay.
- Okay.
Bye.
- Bye.
Hey.
- Hey.
Can I come in?
Oh, yeah. For sure.
Please, please.
Oh. Your shoes.
I'm sorry. Please take off your shoes.
Oh, sorry.
Whoa, I'm def feeling some bad vibes.
You are?
Oh, yeah.
My 12th house is in cancer,
so I can just feel all that energy.
Thats spooky.
Okay, I don't know what that means,
but this is exactly what I called you.
Is that the only reason?
Yeah.
Oh, I thought
maybe you missed me.
Oh, no.
Yeah, I--
I did, but just like...
last time we talked, you said, don't
communicate with me, until
you have a job, you lazy bum, so...
I don't think bum was the word I used.
I'm assuming you don't have a job, then?
Well, no. Yeah. I'm cat-sitting.
Nug! Youll meet her.
- Thats disappointing.
Oh. No.
Well, hey, I've actually been
interviewing a bunch this week.
I had one the other day.
Went, like, super well.
And, you know,
I think I'm going to get it.
This place is cute.
It's cool that your sister
could afford a house in this market.
Yeah,
even a haunted one.
Well, we don't know that it's haunted.
It could just have bad energy.
But, yeah, even haunted
houses are expensive.
It's annoying.
Well, it did get in in an auction.
Is that a thing?
I guess. I mean it was like
foreclosed on or something.
So they had a bunch of shit
they had to take out of here and
yeah now it's theirs.
Looks great now.
So do you.
Sorry.
All right. I, I shouldn't have said that.
No, I'm glad you did.
Expecting someone?
No, I don't know who that is.
One sec.
Hello?
Oh, hi.
I'm Anne. I live right across the street.
I just wanted to come over and say hi,
Introduce myself.
Hi, I'm Jay. I don't live here.
You don't?
No, I'm just cat-sitting.
This is my sister's place.
Oh, okay. Well, that kind of explains it.
The lights were on all night last night.
I guess you just forgot to turn them off.
Oh, I didn't leave the lights on, so...
They were flickering a lot.
Okay, well, it's an old house
so I'm sure you get it.
Well, you know,
it could be a wiring issue.
You should tell your sister.
You know, it could start a fire.
It could cost a lot of money, you know?
Yeah.
Thank you.
Anne?
- Anne.
Yeah, thanks. I will tell her that.
Anything else?
Well, you know, the the other people here,
they didn't really
take care of the place.
Wait, you knew the previous owners?
Yeah, they're a nice couple.
They were just in over their heads,
You know, that was obviously
before they disappeared.
Wait. They disappeared?
Apparently they just up and left.
Wait. Sorry.
How is that possible?
Because my sister didn't tell me this.
Arent you-- don't you have to
disclose if someone vanishes
before buying a house?
No, thats when somebody dies.
Nobody found any bodies.
What do you mean, found bodies?
Look just--
They ran out of money.
They took off and went back to,
I don't know, Ohio or something.
Listen, you have a nice
rest of your day.
Tell your sister about the wiring.
Okay?
Okay.
Thanks, Anne.
That was weird.
So weird.
Okay.
I'm now more convinced than ever
that this place is haunted.
Then why did you just tell her
it was an old house?
I don't know, I didnt know her.
You know, I didn't want her thinking
I'm, like, crazy or something
Dont be silly, that's
just a religious superstition.
Wait, is this your joint holder?
Yeah...
It was all I could find, so just--
Let's leave that.
It doesn't matter.
What we need to do is a sage burning.
Yes. Let's do it.
I'm in.
Do you have it?
No. I assumed your sister would have some?
You assumed?
Delia...
I don't remember you being so homophobic.
Just because she's gay, you assume she--
Shes into gardening!
Oh...
Yeah, that tracks.
Okay.
Well, where would a gay
gardener keep sage?
They might have some in the kitchen?
Duh! In the kitchen.
Very good.
We have, basil.
No. Oregano...
Thyme...
Spearmint.
I suppose it's the intent
more than the herb.
Okay, if I was a spirit, Id
get the fuck out so...
You said you felt, 12th house stuff--
- Right around here.
Right around here.
I don't know any chants, do
you know any?
No, we don't need any chants,
this is serious.
Delia, I'm being serious. Just--
All right,
so I'm just going to go for it?
Oh. All right.
Is it working?
[Chanting]
This is serious.
Okay.
Here, give me.
That's a lot of smoke.
That did not work.
- No.
It smells horrible in here.
Like burnt pizza...
What do we do now?
This should help.
What is that?
Crystal, duh.
- No.
Yeah, I know, I know,
What's it supposed to do?
Oh, it helps to ward off
against bad energy.
I always keep it with me.
Cool.
Think itll work?
At the very least, it should
help mellow out the cat.
Poor thing probably feels all the
same bad vibes in here that I do.
Yeah, she's my best friend.
Okay.
I don't know
what do you want to do now?
Maybe open some wine,
order a pizza or something?
I blame the aroma,
if that's what you can call it.
Yeah, well, I was craving it so...
Okay. Cool.
Gotta remember the coasters.
You are trying, aren't you?
Yeah.
Well, it's been a
rough couple of years
between Sammy and I,
and I just really want to
prove to her
and myself
that I can do this, so, you know,
By watching her cat
and getting rid of her house spirit?
Yeah. Its a start.
See you joke, but I'm serious.
I'm going to be an uncle.
Cat uncle?
No, no, like a real live uncle.
They're trying.
When they get back from their trip.
I like this new Jay.
It's kind of hot.
Sorry.
As much as I want to do this and,
I really do,
I want to respect Sammy's place.
So, maybe for now, we don't?
Fine.
Fine.
But you're paying
for extra cheese on my pizza.
But you're paying
for extra cheese on my pizza.
Yeah, you got it.
Coming right up.
One sec.
The house?
No I just--
I gotta pee.
How romantic.
Okay, well let's be quick.
Be right back.
Just dont move.
Are you serious?
That perv!
Whoa. Wait. Why?
I don't believe I thought you changed.
Well, I didn't I was just in the bathroom.
What are you talking about?
Youre a perv.
Wait, Delia, I don't-- I seriously,
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Please, can you just calm down?
- The camera?
I should have known.
You go on and on
about wanting to turn over the new leaf
and do the right thing
just so that you could sleep with me
and you could record it.
No, no, no.
- I'm pretty sure that's illegal.
I should call the cops on you.
I can you just listen to me?
Don't do that.
Delia, please.
Look, no--
This was so nice. Please.
I had no idea!
- Lose my number!
I don't know-- I didn't know
anything about that!
What the fuck?
What the fuck is this?
What the fuck?
What?
Oh my God.
Oh my God!
Oh my fucking God.
Oh my God, she's right.
I'm not the perv.
I'm not the perv, Sammy. Riley.
That's how you knew who I was
talking about, isn't it?
You guys are the creepers.
You've been watching me, huh?
Oh, yeah?
Okay.
You think that's cool?
See how you like this.
No coasters.
No coasters.
Fuck them!
Get them out of here!
Im raw-dogging it!
Raw-dogging it on your table.
What do you think about that, huh?
Oh, look at this carpet.
No shoes inside.
No shoes inside, we say.
Well, since we're all breaking
the rules of society,
why do we break the rules of the house?
How about we just break
the rules of the house?
Yeah.
I don't even know where
these shoes have been.
No idea. Now your carpet is gonna know.
You know what?
I know,
I know.
Sammy, you
you used to hate
when I would drink
milk out of the carton.
Well, let's just see about that.
Let's just see how you like that.
We're all doing things people don't like.
Like getting spied on,
ruining the love of my life.
How about this?
How about this?
I think it's bad.
Oh, no its just oat milk.
No, it's still bad.
You know what?
Screw it.
Fuck it.
You know what, Sammy?
You know, the most heartbreaking part is?
It's not that you didn't even
trust me with your house.
You didnt trust me with Nug.
I'm going to be a great uncle.
I'm going to be the best uncle.
Watch this.
Nuggie, come out!
Come out, baby!
Nug? Come here sweetie.
Mama wants to see you.
Nug!
- Nuggie?
Cmon baby.
Come out!
Nug, cmon. Please?
Where are you, babe?
Come out for mama.
Nuggie.
We're worried about you, sweetie.
Come on, girl.
- Come on baby, come out.
Hey, are you at the house?
- Hey.
Yeah, I'm there now.
Which, you know, because of the cameras.
One sec. Just getting in.
All right.
Nuggie? Nug.
Hello? Nuggie?
Yeah...
No sign of her.
Here, you know what?
Let me just switch you to video,
just to show you.
All right?
Nug hasnt been on any of
the cameras all night.
I'm really worried.
Okay? Yeah, I know, all right, I ready.
Did you check the bathroom?
Sammy made me take the
cameras out of there
and I know she likes to be in there.
Okay. All right. I'm going.
Hold on.
Okay.
No, nothing.
Say hello to yourself.
I know that
you left the back door open for a while.
Is it possible that she got out?
I mean, I can check.
Nug! Nug!
Beautiful? Best friend?
Uncle Buncle's here now.
Nuggie?
I have, like, treats out and stuff,
so I dont...
Yeah, I don't see her.
Okay.
What exactly happened
when the cameras were covered last night?
Did she get hurt?
A lot of weird stuff
was happening with the camera.
All right, look, Riley, please
just don't start accusing me of stuff.
You guys are the creepers
who had the cameras on.
All right?
I didn't think that you would take it well
and clearly I was right.
Yeah, you should have told me.
Can we please not do this right now?
I'm just worried about Nug, okay?
Can we focus on that?
Yeah, sure.
All right.
I feel like something's happened to her.
I don't think anything happened to her
because it's not that strange.
She's been hiding the entire week.
This is not that abnormal.
No, this is different.
It feels like something is off.
Okay, look, I hear you.
I don't I don't think something's off,
all right?
This is just, like, standard run
of show for her.
Jay...
I know that you and
I have never really gotten along.
Yeah, well, that's
because you're not nice to me, Riley.
And I am very sorry about that.
But what is important right now is Nug.
I'm worried that something happened to her.
Because I messed up, right?
That's what you're saying.
Just say it.
Jay, I don't want to do this, okay?
This is not--
No! Say it, Riley.
Say I messed up.
Okay, fine.
Because you messed up.
Yeah.
Jay.
Jay.
Yeah. I got to go.
I'll talk to you later.
Nug.
Nug!
Nug, buddy please.
Come back for Uncle Buncle.
Please bud? I love you.
Come back, please, I--
I really need you, man.
Please, girl.
Whatever you are,
if you did something to Nug, I swear.
I swear,
whatever it is, this is your fault.
Not mine.
It's not mine.
Please bring her back.
Nug? Nug, baby.
Nuggie.
Nuggie come out.
Where are you, babe?
We just want to know that you're
okay, honey.
Come on.
Come on, good girl.
I can't see that spot in the closet.
I can't see it.
Well, that's probably where she is.
She's really smart.
Hi.
- Hey, I'm here.
Im unlocking.
Ill be in in a sec.
You doing all right?
I mean, I've been better, Jay.
Right?
Alright, you said it was
in the kitchen, right?
Yeah. Kitchen. Corner.
Yeah, there it is.
All right, the--
Reset, the modem, right?
All right.
Yeah, a little button.
- Got it.
Alright, one sec.
Jesus, Sammy,
you guys werent fucking around huh?
Thats Riley for you.
Alright.
Got it set. Let me switch over to video.
Alright.
Hello.
- Hi.
Okay,
does that look right?
Yeah, I think that's good.
All right.
Cool. Shit.
Let me get these treats off the ground.
Theres still treats there?
That's not good.
No, its from when it tipped over.
But usually she comes running
when there's treats, Jay.
That's not good.
Did you check, like, everywhere?
I mean, in the corners of the closets,
like underneath things?
Just let me throw these out, one sec.
Yeah, I was pretty thorough.
Let me look one more time.
Okay, nope.
Theres like no sign of her anywhere?
Still nothing.
Okay, look, I am going to hang up and call
a couple of the local shelters,
see if anybody's turned her in,
and then I will call you back after.
Okay?
Yeah.
Okay. Great. I'm going to go.
All right. Bye.
- Bye.
Thank you for setting up the camera.
I appreciate it.
Okay.
Nug!
Come on, girl.
Nuggie!
Come on, it's Uncle Buncle.
Nuggie Nug cmon!
Nug. We love you.
Making Uncle Buncle look bad.
I'm sorry.
I love you, youre beautiful.
Hey, any luck on your end?
Nope, none.
I did call two shelters.
I left a message for a third.
I can do a post in this community
alert group
and see if anybody's
seen her around the neighborhood.
Alright, yeah.
I mean, I can keep checking and
I can look out back, but like,
I just hope she's hiding.
You know, Nugs sneaky.
Maybe she found a new spot.
She's been doing it all week.
And Sammy, I really--
I don't think I let her out.
I don't know what else to tell you.
I know, Jay
but you have to
understand, Riley is very, very upset,
and I can't be the middle man
for the two of you right now.
Yeah, sorry.
Look, just hear me out.
I did find the previous
owners of your house.
Devin and Kayla Johnson.
You know, the one your
neighbor was talking about?
Jay, I asked you not to bother them.
I just--I said, hear me out.
I haven't bothered them, okay?
I was searching and I found them.
I mean, it is a little odd they
just disappeared, right?
They didn't disappear.
They just didn't
make some big announcement
to the neighbors they were leaving.
Well, I feel like we should reach out
and ask them if they were also
experiencing strange things in the house.
Jay, I need you to stop
with the house stuff, okay?
And focus on finding Nug.
Sammy, I think they're related.
Riley got us a flight back.
We are leaving tomorrow.
Are you fucking--
- Well be back late.
I can take care of this.
You have one job-- focus on
finding Nug. Thats it.
Alright, Im just gonna do both.
Youre not listening.
Fine. Whatever.
I will see you tomorrow. Okay?
Can't wait.
The fuck?
When did that happen?
That can't be good.
Hello?
Hi. Is this, Devin Johnson?
Who's asking?
My sister--
I think she bought your
your old house on on Oak Avenue.
I just-- I had a couple questions about it.
Hello?
Devin is my son.
Was my son.
We haven't heard from
him or his wife in two years.
Im sorry.
They disappeared?
I don't know,
Right. Okay.
Something strange went on in that house.
They were having some sort of issues
with their plumbing.
I don't know, just weird stuff
they kept explaining away.
The plumbing.
But you're saying something strange.
Like what?
I don't know, I told them to get out
many times, but it was their first home,
and they loved it.
And they loved that house.
So they stayed till they didn't
Did they call the police?
Of course I did.
Okay?
The police said
there was no sign of a struggle,
so they must have just left
without any of their belongings.
It makes no sense. None at all.
Okay.
And you haven't--
You haven't heard from them?
No.
I wish I just gone out there
and dragged them out of the house myself.
Instead, I--
I think something else did.
What do you mean, something else?
Hello? Mr--
If I were your sister,
Id get out of that house now.
Wait.
Sir, could you please
could you tell me a little more? Sir?
Nug!
Nug?
Fuck this,
fuck this.
Nug, we're getting out of here.
Come on, buddy, come on.
Nug!
Bud! Hey girl...
Okay, okay.
Uncle's coming. I'm sorry.
Uncle Buncles here.
Hey.
What?
Jay! Jay!
Answer me! Jay!
Jay, what's going on?
Come on. Why aren't you picking up?
Do you think it's like a glitch?
I mean, he hasnt moved.
- No, the timecode is moving
and you can see his phone light
up when you call.
Jay, move! Answer!
Jay, it's not funny.
Oh my God.
He knows how important this was
to us so he wouldn't mess around.
It doesn't matter if you're a drug addict.
You're a drug addict.
It doesn't matter.
- Okay, but something is wrong.
Nobody's there.
- I know somethings wrong.
I can tell something's wrong. Jay.
Well, I think your cameras are broken.
The cameras are not broken.
He probably didn't, like,
connect it right or something.
And the Wi-Fi is really bad here.
Okay, so, like, I--
Jay. Jay, please answer.
Jay. Jay, please answer.
You're really freaking me out.
You're really freaking me out.
Jay this is not funny.
It's not funny. Move.
Jay, can you just talk to me, please?
I know you're mad, but I promise
everything is going to be okay.
Please, Jay.
I'm not mad at you.
And we are not mad at you, okay?
We're really worried
and we care about you.
Please.
Come on, baby brother.
Just answer.
- You're not in trouble. Please,
Jay. Come on, just move.
Somethings wrong.
Somethings fucking wrong.
Please.
- I dont like this.
Why isnt he moving?
Jay, I fucking swear to God.
I fucking swear to God.
We will come home right
now, and I will fucking rip your head off
if you don't fucking move
or just fucking acknowledge us.
This is so mean
if this is a fucking joke.
- Jay its not funny.
It's not funny.
Please just stop.
Just move.
Jay.
Nug? Jay?
Come on.
Please, please, please.
I don't get it. I don't get it.
Jay, please.
Oh no...
Nug?
- Jay? Jay...
Jay, look at me!
Jay what the fuck is going on?
Jay! What the fuck is going on?
Jay? No.
Oh my God! Jay, what the
fuck are you doing?
Jay stop it!
Jay, stop!
Stop! Jay!
Jay, no!
Sammy...
Oh my God...
Riley,

Riley, cmon I need you.
Riley. Jay.
Jay. Oh, my God.
Jay Im sorry.
I dont know what to do,
Im sorry.
Im having an emergency.
I need you to send somebody to

Oh my God, Riley.
Riley, baby.
