If it catches Jaime, it will kill her and pursue the previous person to have passed it on: Hugh. Jaime sees an old woman in a hospital gown walking towards her, invisible to others. Jaime flees the house; her friends catch up to her at a nearby playground. Jaime’s friends ward it off by breaking a chair over its body and Jaime shoots it in the head, but it recovers unharmed and attacks Jaime again, this time taking the form of a boy who lives next door to Jaime. The group plans to kill the entity by luring it into a swimming pool and dropping electrical devices into the water. Instead of entering the pool, Jaime spots the entity and shoots it at her deceased father. Later, Jaime and Paul drive through town, passing prostitutes and walking down the street holding hands as a figure walks behind them.
