The group includes Gaz, Nathan, Terry, and Nathan’s girlfriend Mary, who reluctantly joins the heist. After failing to access the safe, Mary enters the house and reveals to Nathan that she’s pregnant. When the Hugginses return, they are tied up by the group, who attempt to force them into opening the safe.
Richard, recognizing Nathan and Terry from their childhood, causes Nathan to hesitate in continuing the robbery. A confrontation erupts, leading Gaz to stab Nathan. Gaz then tries to harm Ellen, but Mary intervenes, killing Gaz with a sledgehammer. As Mary and Terry untie the couple, Ellen seems to recognize Mary, raising tension.
Richard deceives Terry and Mary by pretending to call an ambulance and offering to operate on Nathan. Meanwhile, Ellen secretly drugs Terry, causing him to hallucinate Mary’s missing twin sister, Jane. Mary soon realizes they’ve been tricked. During a tense discussion over tea, Richard and Ellen reveal the tragic death of their daughter Kate and the mysterious disappearances of teenage girls in the area. Mary attempts to escape but is fatally shot by Terry.
As Mary dies, Richard confesses to capturing and imprisoning girls in their safe, dressing them up as their deceased daughter Kate. He reveals that Mary’s sister Jane is still captive and rewards Terry by imprisoning him alongside her. The story ends with the chilling realization of the Hugginses’ dark secrets.
