Silent Hill: Homecoming

Deputy Wheeler:
[Siam jumps in and attacks Alex and Wheeler] [Wheeler looks at Alex] Alright, You cuff him, I'll read him his rights.

[Travis pulls his truck to a stop in Shepherd's Glen]

Travis Grady:
[to Alex] Hometown?

Alex Shepherd:
You could say that.

Elle Holloway:
The town seems empty. All the stores are closed or boarded up. What's going on?

Judge Holloway:
It's complicated, Alex. A lot of things have happened since you left.

Alex Shepherd:
I noticed a banner out front that said something about an anniversary.

Judge Holloway:
Yes, the town's 150 year anniversary.

Alex Shepherd:
But wasn't that celebration, like, years ago? I thought I remembered being here for it.

Judge Holloway:
You're right. Things tend to stay in one place around here. I guess it's time we took that down, huh?

[Alex goes home and finds his mother]

Lillian Sheperd:
Alex. What are you doing here?

Alex Shepherd:
I just got discharged. I was in the hospital for a bit, but I'm all right now.

Lillian Sheperd:
You've been gone too long.

Alex Shepherd:
Yeah. Where is everybody? Where's Josh?

Lillian Sheperd:
I don't know. Your father went to look for him. But now he's gone. Everyone's gone.

[Alex notices that his mother has a revolver in her lap]

Alex Shepherd:
Mom, what's going on here? What happened? Mom!

Lillian Sheperd:
[sorrowfully] I miss your brother, Alex.

Alex Shepherd:
You've got a lot of clock parts in this place. There a reason?

Curtis Ackers:
Yeah, there's a reason. For fixing clocks! Haven't you noticed that every single clock in this town has stopped at exactly 2:06?

Alex Shepherd:
No, I hadn't.

Curtis Ackers:
Well, take a look around, son.

Alex Shepherd:
Why do you think that is?

Curtis Ackers:
Hell if I know. I just try to fix 'em. But it's no use. They won't start running again. It's like something's not letting us move on.

[on the way to Silent Hill]

Elle Holloway:
You know, I never understood why you left. One day, you were just gone. Look, I didn't say it before, but I'm glad you're back. I feel safer with you here. Everything's just been falling apart around us, you know but you just keep moving forward.

Alex Shepherd:
I don't have a choice.

Elle Holloway:
Yes you do. You could just leave again.

Deputy Wheeler:
Alex, tell me what you know about Silent Hill.

Alex Shepherd:
I know Joshua and I were told a hundred times never to go there.

Elle Holloway:
Yeah, my mom was pretty strict about it too.

Deputy Wheeler:
Yeah, well, your parents were right. I can tell you, it all fits. All those things we've seen in Shepherd's Glen, the nightmares...

Alex Shepherd:
What do you mean?

Deputy Wheeler:
Silent Hill is what I mean. The place has bad history. Always has.

Alex Shepherd:
You've been there?

Deputy Wheeler:
Didn't need to, I heard enough. When I decided to move east, I was looking at a job in Brahms, working with the police. At the time, they had this cop, I can't remember her name. She had gone to Silent Hill.

Elle Holloway:
What happened to her?

Deputy Wheeler:
No one knows. They found her bike outside of town. But I heard rumors about the people who live there. Let's just say, they're not too friendly to people who don't share their beliefs.

Alex Shepherd:
The Order.

Deputy Wheeler:
Yeah. When I met with your father about working in Shepherd's Glen, he told me I would never have to go to Silent Hill. I guess there's some sort of irony here.

Elle Holloway:
Do you really think we're gonna find anyone there?
