Hello?
(birds chirping)
(footsteps thumping)
(suspenseful music)
(suspenseful music continues)
You don't have to stay, you know.
You can just go back
to where you came from.
But you look.
I know parallel.
Looks like you hit your head pretty hard.
I mean, I could just be an illusion.
The sun is pretty strong,
even through the clouds.
Anyway,
I guess you could say
this is like a warning
because once you go through with this,
there's no turning back.
Parallel.
I wish I could say more, I do.
But you put yourself in this situation
and only you can decide
to go through with it.
Or, you can leave.
(snake hisses) (snake rattles)
(Tiffany gasps)
Did you see that?
A fervent.
A what?
You're running out of time.
Okay, look, I don't even
know where the hell I am.
And you look identical to me,
so tell me how that's even possible.
Are you afraid of them?
The snake?
No, I mean not really.
You should be.
Oh, is that right?
As far as I'm concerned,
you're just an illusion
from me hitting my head.
So why don't you just tell me this.
Do you have any idea how you got here?
Any at all?
Predictable.
I'm leaving.
(snake hisses) (snake rattles)
(snake growls)
I guess you made your decision.
(footsteps thumping)
(tense foreboding music)
(Tiffany gasps)

(snake hisses) (snake rattles)
(birds chirping)
(tense suspenseful music)
Hello?

(tense foreboding music)

(birds chirping)
Hello?
(footsteps thumping)
(birds chirping)
Hey.
Where are you going?
(tense suspenseful music)
(snake rattles)
(Tiffany gasps)
(birds chirping)
Who the hell are you?
What the hell are you-
(siren blaring)
What the?
(siren blaring)
(items rattling)
(Rainey breathing deeply)
What is it?
(tense suspenseful music)
(latch rattling)
(hinges squeaking)
(birds chirping)
It seems fine.
Get out of my way.
You cannot go out there.
Why the hell would I trust you?
I don't even know who you are.
And you don't know what this place is
or how we got here, right?
So I'm leaving now.
I don't see anything.
Well, yeah, how can you be so sure?
Your guess is as good as mine.
(Tiffany scoffs)
We can actually talk out here.
So,
you woke up here, same as me.
Mm-hmm, that's right.
I have no idea how I got here either.
[Rainey] And the siren?
I'm not sure.
You know, before you got here,
I came outside and I saw this,
this man in the trees.
And then when I went out to
find him, there was a snake.
A man.
Yeah, I didn't get a
good look at him though.
[Rainey] All right.
What kind of snake?
(snake hisses) (snake rattles)
You see? I told you.
[Rainey] Okay. Okay.
So what do we do?
I say,
I say we just go back to the
house where it can't find us.
There is no way I'm
staying inside that house.
I am leaving.
[Tiffany] No wait.
You don't understand.
You're coming with me.
Because if you are, keep your voice down.
(birds chirping)
(gentle foreboding music)
(gentle foreboding music continues)
(gentle foreboding music continues)
I have no clue where we're going.
Which is why I suggested
that we stay at the house.
You said you saw someone out here before.
Well, I think I did.
I did.
Well, maybe he knows what this place is.
I mean, if we can even find him out here.
This place goes on for days.
The trees, the trails.
(snake hisses) (snake rattles)
Did you hear that?
We got to get out of here.
[Tiffany] Wait.
(tense suspenseful music)
(Rainey breathing deeply)
(snake hisses) (snake rattles)
(snake screeches)
(snake growls)
[Rainey] No.
(Rainey screaming)
(tense suspenseful music)
(snake growls)
(gentle foreboding music)
(door slams)
(Tiffany breathing deeply)
Who the hell are you?
(siren blaring)
(Perez grunts)
(Perez breathing deeply)
(gentle ominous music)
All right.
Who the hell are you and
how did you bring me here?
Look, I didn't bring you anywhere.
I showed up in this
house, same as you, okay?
Bullshit.
Bullshit.
Well, you're a cop. That's good.
At least you're armed.
My radio.
You stole my damn radio.
No, I didn't steal anything.
I need your cellphone.
Give it to me.
I don't have it.
I don't have it.
Okay, look, there was this
woman that was here before you
and I warned her not to
go outside and she did.
She ran off into these trees
out here and something ate her.
It was a snake and it had three heads.
(Perez chuckles)
A snake with three heads.
Lady, are you out of your fucking mind?
Well, what about you and your cellphone?
Where are you going?
I'm going back to the station.
You won't make it, even if you're armed.
But a second ago you said
that that was a good thing.
[Tiffany] Look, I don't know, okay.
I'm just as confused as you are.
Did you drug me?
No.
All right.
What is the last thing you remember
before you showed up here?
I was home.
I think.
What the hell is that?
(snake rattles)
It's not safe out here.
Trust me.
All right, walk.
(snake hisses) (snake rattles)
(tense foreboding music)
Huge.
You know, I have a family.
We all have families.
Well, I intend to see mine again.

(siren blaring)
(Perez grunts)
Told you not to go outside.
I'm sorry.
So what do we do now?
(tense foreboding music)
(snake hisses) (snake rattles)
(Perez scoffs)
(gentle ominous music)
(Perez laughs)
(gentle ominous music)
(gentle ominous music continues)
(snake growls)
(snake hisses) (snake rattles)
(gentle ominous music)
(birds chirping)
(tense suspenseful music)
Shot.
Shot the snake
with the three heads.
(tense suspenseful music)
(Perez breathing deeply)
(snake growls)
(Perez screaming)
(birds chirping)
(tense foreboding music)
Perez?
Perez.
Hey!
You know I see you out there.
What do you want from me?
Where are you going?
Hey.
(Hercules whistling)
(footsteps thumping)
(birds chirping)
(tense foreboding music)
Hello?
[Hercules] You have found me.
Well, I heard the whistle.
(Hercules whistling)
Great.
You wanna clue me in
on what's happening here
or do you just wanna whistle?
[Hercules] You don't remember me, do you?
Should I?
Okay, look, I need help
to get out of this place.
There's a snake and it's in the woods
and it's killing people.
That's not the only
thing that's out there, is it?
No.
I mean, there's this man,
and I've seen him a few times,
but he never comes close enough for me
to see if he can help me or not.
Wait, remember you?
How would I remember you?
Well, are you gonna answer me?
[Hercules] This place is so old.
This place is old.
Great. That's all you have?
(earth rumbling)
We shouldn't speak here.
You should follow me.
(footsteps thumping)
(tense foreboding music)
[Tiffany] Why'd you stop?
It can't reach the high grounds.
Okay, it, you must be talking
about the snake then, right?
That's right.
Okay, good.
That means I'm not completely crazy.
Okay, I say we just hang out here.
Somebody can come by.
We'll flag them down for help.
No one's coming here to save you.
Besides, if that snake
doesn't kill you, he will.
Do you know who he is?
Well, everyone knows who he is.
[Tiffany] Well, not me.
You really don't remember
anything about this place,
do you?
No.
Men go to far greater
lengths to avoid what they fear
than to obtain what they truly desire.
[Tiffany] What?
You aren't going to win today.
Do you remember how Olympus fell?
This is what you must do too.
You must form new roots
and feed from the
earth who still loves you,
but you must remember how.
[Tiffany] What are you talking about?
(snake screeches)
That sounded close.
Too close.
Okay, what do we do?
Where do we go?
(tense suspenseful music)
There's another.
Go on now.
Maybe she can help you.
No, she?
No, I'm staying here with you.
I'm not going back to that house.
(Hercules scoffs)
That's going to be impossible.
I'm a mere passerby whose
time has come and gone.
Go on now.
(tense suspenseful music)
Well, what.
Hello?
Hello?
Shit.
(tense suspenseful music)
(footsteps thumping)
Hello?
(siren blaring)
(tense foreboding music)
(tense foreboding music continues)
(birds chirping)
I'm Tiffany.
Diana.
So you don't know where
this place is or how you got here?
I was about to ask you the same thing.
What was that?
The sirens.
I don't know.
All I know is when you speak
loud enough in the house,
that's what happens.
Let me guess, no cell phone either?
No.
Great.
Well, it's impossible to
leave, that much I do know.
Why do you say that?
There were two others
before you showed up here.
And I warned them not
to go outside and they did.
And now they're dead.
And all that's left are these bones.
(birds chirping)
What?
What?
Do you know something about the bones?
Diana, what do you know about the bones?
Diana, you know something
about those bones, don't you?
Hydra.
Hydra? What the hell's Hydra?
What were you before you came here?
Your job, what was it before
you woke up in this house,
like I did?
I don't know.
I can't remember, why?
I do.
In the Greek legend,
Hydra was the offspring
of Typhon and Echidna.
In Hesiod's poem, Theogony,
a large water snake-like
monster with three heads
would rise from a body of
water and hunt the lands nearby.
Anyone attempting to behead Hydra
found out that the creature was immortal.
And by cutting off one head,
another one would emerge
from the fresh wound.
How do you know all that?
I was the chair of Greek studies
at my university back home.
Killing Hydra was one
of Hercules' 12 labors.
He severed the mortal heads,
but there was one that was in fact immoral.
Yeah, but that's a myth, right?
And if it were true, obviously
this isn't Ancient Greece.
If you saw a three-headed
snake, it was Hydra.
(snake hisses) (snake rattles)
I did.
Then the question isn't why you saw it.
It's how.
(gentle ethereal music)
(snake growls) (snake screeches)
(tense foreboding music)
Some people say it would
come up out of the water.
Others say it broke through the ground.
However, it appears
it's only for two reasons.
To feed or shed its skin.
Sometimes it'll drag cattle
back and leave a horn
or a leg or something up here on the banks.
But usually, it'll take it on the whole.
After all, three mouths is a lot to feed.
If it leaves behind a part
of its prey, like a bone,
it's a warning sign that
it's here and that it's hungry.
(tense suspenseful music)
(gentle ominous music)
(gentle ominous music continues)
(birds chirping)
[Recording] Diana, this
message is for you and you alone.
The woman inside is not to be trusted.
She's not who she says she is.
If you continue to befriend her,
you will die by her hand,
the same fate as the
others that came before you.
Take caution.
Hey, I found food.
Whoa, are you okay?
What happened?
What's going on?
Who are you?
It's me.
It's Tiffany.
We went over that inside.
That's not what this says.
[Recording] If you
continue to befriend her,
you will die by her hand,
the same fate as the
others that came before you.
Take caution.
Who gave you this?
Diana, who gave you this?
Wait.
(gentle ominous music)

say this is like a warning

there's no turning back.

(gentle ominous music)
(gentle ominous music continues)
(tense foreboding music)
[Recording] Hello, Echidna.
We know who you are so
there's no use in denying it.
King Eurystheus is growing impatient.
With the stag of Arcadia captured,
there is but one labor left.
The death of the Hydra of Lerna.
That's right, the creature
of your preterition.
Once the final labor has
been completed by Alcaeus,
you will be sent back to the
Underworld for an eternity.
There, you will be
punished for your evil deeds
against these passerbys that
you have lured into your den
and then sacrificed to the evil Hydra.
Alcaeus.
(birds chirping)
Echidna.
(footsteps thumping)
Alcaeus.
One of my many names.
Hercules.
How'd you find me?
After a lifetime of searching, your cave.
Far beneath the crust of the holy earth,
underneath a hollow rock,
far from the deathless gods and mortal men,
the same cave you would
use to take the passersby away.
(snake growls) (snake screeches)
The rest, you fed the Hydra.
(tense suspenseful music)
But you helped me with Perez.
What does daddy think of that?
Helped?
Oh, in order to kill the beast from hell,
I had to keep feeding it.
I kept it close to you.
And now, I intend to destroy it.
Son of Zeus, the great god.
Where is he now?
Doesn't change my
intention on destroying Hydra.
You on the other hand, either way.
Oh, yeah.
And how do you plan on doing that?
By pissing it the fuck off.

You don't have to stay, you know.
You can just go back

I was about to ask you the same thing.
What was that?
The sirens.
I don't know.
All I know is when you speak
loud enough in the house,
that's what happens.
Let me guess, no cell phone either?
No.
Great.
Well, it's impossible to
leave, that much I do know.
Why do you say that?
There were two others
before you showed up here.
And I warned them not
to go outside and they did.
And now they're dead.
And all that's left are these bones.
(birds chirping)
What?
What?
Do you know something about the bones?
Diana, what do you know about the bones?
Diana, you know something
about those bones, don't you?
Hydra.
Hydra? What the hell's Hydra?
What were you before you came here?
Your job, what was it before
you woke up in this house,
like I did?
I don't know.
I can't remember, why?
I do.
In the Greek legend,
Hydra was the offspring
of Typhon and Echidna.
In Hesiod's poem, Theogony,
a large water snake-like
monster with three heads
would rise from a body of
water and hunt the lands nearby.
Anyone attempting to behead Hydra
found out that the creature was immortal.
And by cutting off one head,
another one would emerge
from the fresh wound.
How do you know all that?
I was the chair of Greek studies
at my university back home.
Killing Hydra was one
of Hercules' 12 labors.
He severed the mortal heads,
but there was one that was in fact immoral.
Yeah, but that's a myth, right?
And if it were true, obviously
this isn't Ancient Greece.
If you saw a three-headed
snake, it was Hydra.
(snake hisses) (snake rattles)
I did.
Then the question isn't why you saw it.
It's how.
(gentle ethereal music)
(snake growls) (snake screeches)
(tense foreboding music)
Some people say it would
come up out of the water.
Others say it broke through the ground.
However, it appears
it's only for two reasons.
To feed or shed its skin.
Sometimes it'll drag cattle
back and leave a horn
or a leg or something up here on the banks.
But usually, it'll take it on the whole.
After all, three mouths is a lot to feed.
If it leaves behind a part
of its prey, like a bone,
it's a warning sign that
it's here and that it's hungry.

[Recording] Diana, this
message is for you and you alone.
The woman inside is not to be trusted.
She's not who she says she is.
If you continue to befriend her,
you will die by her hand,
the same fate as the
others that came before you.
Take caution.
Hey, I found food.
Whoa, are you okay?
What happened?
What's going on?
Who are you?
It's me.
It's Tiffany.
We went over that inside.
That's not what this says.
[Recording] If you
continue to befriend her,
you will die by her hand,
the same fate as the
others that came before you.
Take caution.
Who gave you this?
Diana, who gave you this?
Wait.

Looks like you hit your head pretty hard.
Anyway, I guess you could
say this is like a warning
because once you go through with this,
there's no turning back.

You should follow me.

[Recording] Hello, Echidna.
We know who you are so
there's no use in denying it.
King Eurystheus is growing impatient.
With the stag of Arcadia captured,
there is but one labor left.
The death of the Hydra of Lerna.
That's right, the creature
of your preterition.
Once the final labor has
been completed by Alcaeus,
you will be sent back to the
Underworld for an eternity.
There, you will be
punished for your evil deeds
against these passerbys that
you have lured into your den
and then sacrificed to the evil Hydra.
Alcaeus.
(birds chirping)
Echidna.
(footsteps thumping)
Alcaeus.
One of my many names.
Hercules.
How'd you find me?
After a lifetime of searching, your cave.
Far beneath the crust of the holy earth,
underneath a hollow rock,
far from the deathless gods and mortal men,
the same cave you would
use to take the passersby away.
(snake growls) (snake screeches)
The rest, you fed the Hydra.
(tense suspenseful music)
But you helped me with Perez.
What does daddy think of that?
Helped?
Oh, in order to kill the beast from hell,
I had to keep feeding it.
I kept it close to you.
And now, I intend to destroy it.
Son of Zeus, the great god.
Where is he now?
Doesn't change my
intention on destroying Hydra.
You on the other hand, either way.
Oh, yeah.
And how do you plan on doing that?
By pissing it the fuck off.
