THE COLLECTOR

I can't be of much more help,

I'm sorry.

I wish I could, but I don't know how.

My brother came searching for inspiration.

He's a writer, or he's trying to be one.

He's very talented, he writes beautifully.

He wanted to finish his book
and thought being alone would help.

I see.

He'll turn up, don't worry.

The police said there's no trace
of him in the house he rented,

they don't know where he may be.

It's been two months.

That's why I'm here,
I hope to find some clue... Anything...

I spoke to him sometimes and he seemed...
He seemed happy.

He mentioned this shop,

he said there were very special objects.

That's true.

Each and every object in the shop
has something magical about it.

Your brother came here often.

He's a very nice boy,

just like you.

He showed interest for a book,
some old pens...

And the dollhouse.

A dollhouse?

Yes, he loved it
since he came here the first time.

Would you like to see it?

Want to see it?

Yes, yes, please.

I walked by the house where your brother
was staying the other day,

and I saw that
the dollhouse was still there,

so, I brought it back so I could give it
to him when I saw him again.

My brother bought this?

He didn't seem to have a lot of money,

so, I gave it to him.

I never thought

my brother would be interested
in this sort of things.

He looks just like my brother.

The doll, he's just like my brother,
he's even dressed the same.

Grab it.

Pull it out to get a better look.

I can't!

Help me, help me!

Well, that's unfortunate!

If we had only stopped three kilometres
later we'd be in the town.

Don't worry, my love, don't worry.

I'll solve this.

I'll check if there's a garage
open that can fix the car.

It's so odd, I had it checked recently.

I'm sure it's nothing serious.

Will you wait for me here?

Don't get out of the car, okay?

I won't be long.

Good afternoon!

FOR RENT

Margarida,

why did you get out of the car?

My love, I told you,

you must be careful.

The doctor said
that you have to take it slow.

Love, I get it, I get it...

You just want to go out for a walk,

that's great, no problem,

but let me know.

Okay?

Did someone come by here?

No?

Everything is okay, everything is fine.

I'm here, I'm here.

We're in luck,

I found an open garage.

The mechanic's on his way.

He'll take a while, perhaps days,
or so he said.

But he'll try to be quick.

And, because of that,
and here's another surprise,

which is why I took so long.

I rented a house, what do you think?

We'll spend some days here...

I'm sure that staying here
some days will do us good,

we'll work on your recovery, okay?

A TOWN BETWEEN TWO WORLDS

We'll sleep down here,

what do you think?

I'm doing it for you, love,
I think it's easier,

this way you won't have to climb stairs.

Isn't this beautiful?

I'll work at this table,

it's just perfect.

I'm going to the kitchen to check
if they left food by any chance,

like a welcome gift.

They didn't leave us anything.

That's not nice...

Well, I'll go into the town
to buy something to eat.

Don't leave the house, love, okay?

I promise I won't be long.

Good day.

We're all going to die.

We're all going to die...

Good evening.

Anybody here?

Who's there?

Good evening, Margarida.

Don't be afraid,

I'm not here to hurt you.

Help! Help me!

This town is magical.

Everyone who visits it,

end up living a life-changing event.

Are you ready for yours?

Who's there?

I brought you a gift.

Don't tell Elías that I came to visit you.

He'd get worried without any reason,

he may not understand
that you and I are friends now.

Help me! Help me!

Please!

Please, please! Help me!

Please, please! Help me! In here!

Yes, here, here! Please, help me!

Help me! Please! Help me!

Help me! Help me!

Here!

Why are you here?

I saw that the store was open
and I walked in.

- Was anyone here?
- I haven't seen anybody.

Come on, let's talk outside.

Where are you staying?

At a family estate.

At "Da Ribeira?"

My wife and I are staying there.

Leave this town as soon as possible.

The two of you should go.

Good evening.

Good evening, Filipe.

Don't go near them, Fátima.

You've caused enough evil.

Don't focus on the way,

but on the results.

I'm back.

Nothing... Everything was closed.

I'll go shopping tomorrow.

That wasn't here before.

Did you go get a flashlight?

Where was it?

In the drawer?

It doesn't work...

Margarida, for the last time,

please, when I'm not here,
when you're alone,

don't wander around the house.

If you start walking around,

you'll fall.

Who will help you if I'm not here?

You know it's for your own good,
my love, that's all.

You're still recovering.

For the love of God.

Everything is okay, everything is fine.

Come on, I'll help you.

I'm sure you're tired, aren't you, love?

Easy does it.

Let's go to the toilet and,
then, we're off to bed.

Slowly.

That's right.

One, two, three, up... That's it.

This way.

Margarida?

I'm back.

I bought water, meat, vegetables, eggs,

and your yoghurts...

Anything for the love of my life.

I called Dr. Henriques
and he said we should start working

on our lifelong memories,

which are right in here.

And we can start

by this one.

Remember this day?

We took this picture
two years ago in the Algarve.

We rented a small house,
it was very quaint, you loved it.

We'd go on long walks...

You were so happy back then, my love.

Remember?

No, no, don't worry, don't worry,
it's okay, everything is fine.

Step by step...

The doctor said we should take it slow.

We just need to have a little patience,
that's all.

Well, then...

Let's start the day with some energy!

I'll make breakfast and, afterwards,

we'll do our exercise, okay?
We'll stretch...

I'll be right back, love.

Margarida, we're here.

Who's there?

Who's there?

Who are you?

My love...

Did you make this yourself?

See how you're slowly getting better?

Open the door, I know you're in there!

Open up!

Can't you hear me?

I'll tell you one thing, let me be clear!

Either you leave this house today,

or I'll call the authorities.

It was the garage,

the car's finally ready.

We can leave this afternoon.

I'm going to pack our bags, love.

I'm so proud of you, so proud...

Didn't I tell you to leave?

We couldn't leave any sooner.

The car broke down
and I just managed to fix it.

Listen,

I don't care
that you squatted in this house,

it so happens that I know the owners.

That's not why

I told you to leave town
as soon as possible.

Why did you come here?

Yes, you're right, I lied.
We've squatted the house.

The car stopped three kilometres from here
and I had no cash

to fill the tank.

That's what happened.

Why didn't you tell me the truth?

What did you want me to say?

That we're broke
because my wife had an accident

and now she behaves like a five-year-old?

Is that it?

No.

I had to quit my job

to dedicate myself totally
to her recovery.

I don't regret it, don't get me wrong,
I regret nothing.

But, to be totally honest, Father,
I'm completely broke right now.

Do you follow?

How did you end up here?

We were

on the way

to a house, a family home,
that's 200 kilometres away.

And we passed by here,
but it's all solved now.

I fuelled up and we're off,
we won't spend another night here.

- I hope it all goes well.
- Thanks.

Don't go...

Don't go, Father.

She needs your help.

May I speak to her?

With whom?

Your wife.

I just want to meet her.

I'll help you

pack the car later.

Okay?

Sure,

let's go inside.

My love,

there's someone here to see you.

Perhaps she has gone to the toilet.

I'll go get her.

SUSPECTED m*rder*r OF A MAN
AND HIS DAUGHTER HAS FLED JUSTICE

WOMAN WHOSE HUSBAND
AND DAUGHTER

WERE k*lled
GOES MISSING

MARGARIDA COSTA IS STILL MISSING

Elías!

Elías, come up!

My love, where are you?

Elías!

Margarida?

What are you doing here?

My love,

we have to go.

Remember?

We were expecting you, Elías.

Who are these people?

You know fully well who they are.

Why did you k*ll them?

I did none of that!

I'm your husband, Margarida. I love you.

I just want to take care of you.

You were just my neighbour,
you're nothing to me.

That's a lie.

Please, love, let's leave.

- Let's forget all this, the car is ready.
- m*rder*r!

Help me!

Help me!

Help me!

Help me!

Help me!

Help me!

It was an accident...

Let me out, let me out...

Help me!

Help me!

- Help me, Father. Help me!
- Open, if you're there.

That's it, that's it.
It's over, it's over.

Thank you.
