The family has stopped at a rest area. Daniel is still holding the photo. Outside, the wind begins to howl, but it’s rhythmic. Thump-thump-thump. The sound of breaking trees.

We’re not containing a monster, sir. We’re just waiting for the next person to look at the wrong picture. FADE TO BLACK. The family has stopped at a rest area

A family sedan drives down a lonely road. (12) is looking through a pile of old photos from his grandfather’s attic. He pulls out a grainy polaroid of a mountain range. Thump-thump-thump

It’s back in its cell. Sitting in the corner. Crying. Like nothing ever happened. Reyes looks at his hands. They are shaking.

The room is bathed in the sterile blue glow of dozens of monitors. (40s, weary) sips lukewarm coffee. Beside him, TECHNICIAN CHAVEZ (20s, nervous) is scrolling through thermal feeds.
