Joey seems distracted, but denies that anything is wrong, and Luke congratulates her for being nine months clean.Īt Hill House, little Luke and Nell are playing with the brass “intercom” system they found. High school? He has lied and stolen from his brother and sisters, and has taken money from them many times. She asks if he is having a hard time with the fearless inventory he is attempting to write about, and he wonders how far back in his life he needs to go. Is this foreshadowing?īack in rehab, Luke is in his room with his pretty friend Joey. She also asks him to get rid of the ropes hanging around the tall iron spiral staircase, because they are an accident waiting to happen. When the twins leave, Olivia tells Hugh her vision of the room they are standing in, which includes a boy in a wheel chair.
#THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE SEASON 1 EPISODE 4 TV#
Image courtesy of Amblin TV and Paramount TV Nell says that Luke loves the hat, and when Hugh asks how she knows he loves it, she replies, “It’s a twin thing.” (Now Nellie is an 11 as well). Hugh puts it on his head (thereby rendering Luke an 11 on the cuteness scale of 1-10), and they agree that it is a “big boy hat.” Hugh tells him that big boys know the difference between what’s real and what is imaginary. In the box of stuff Olivia has brought down is an old-fashioned men’s black bowler hat, and Luke asks if he can have it. She comes out of hiding when her mother says she has a box of old buttons Nellie may like. Around the picture of the ghastly creature he saw in the basement, he places green army men, counting them out loud, “1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.” Then he is in Hill House showing the drawing to Hugh, and tells him the house is “bad.” Olivia walks downstairs looking for Nellie, who is hiding behind a box. To give him credit, he seems ashamed of the way he has mistreated his siblings.Īt Hill House, Luke is in his tree house, with the creepy drawing on the floor. Luke as an adult is shy, and just seems tired most of the time.
In his quiet, unassuming way, he seems proud. Two days before this, Luke spoke in the meeting, and he was 90 days clean for the first time. It’s pretty gruesome, as he found a little girl with her eyes melted “like runny eggs,” and the story ends with the disclosure that the trauma caused him to stab his own eyes out with a knitting needle while on drugs. We cut to adult Luke, in a rehab group meeting, where a blind Iraqi war vet is telling his story.
