The next day, David and Lynn attend a local swimming competition. The mysterious woman hitchhikes with a local man to the competition, apparently stalking the children. David notices the woman beckoning him from behind the bleachers. In the pool, Lynn meets Kenny, who takes romantic interest in her. When they return home, they find the police gathered near the property, removing the corpse of the man from a pond. Police tell the grandfather that the man's van is missing. That afternoon, a family barbecue is held at the house with the Sacketts and their children, Raymond and Darlene. While exploring the surrounding orange orchards with Raymond, David is told that a woman was allegedly murdered inside the tunnel of an irrigation ditch, and that her body was stuffed behind the stone wall. Convinced there are other bodies in the connected pond, Raymond fashions a makeshift bomb and detonates it, hoping to dredge them.
As the Sacketts leave, David sneaks into the attic, where his grandfather follows him. David escapes onto the roof of the house, accidentally severing the house's phone line in the process. Moments later, Kenny arrives to take Lynn on a date, leaving David alone at home with his grandparents. While driving in the orchard, Kenny and Lynn get the car stuck after running over an old pipe drain. Lynn returns to the house on foot to retrieve a jack. David confronts Lynn in the garage, where they find the woman seated in their grandparents' large truck, handcuffed to the steering wheel. David is shocked to find the woman is still alive, and she explains she is being kept prisoner, and that she came to warn the children about the dangers of living in their grandparents' house. They manage to undo the woman's handcuffs, after which she begins to attack David.
It had been many years since I had seen the old house and I was almost certain that it would have been replaced by a sub-division or a pharmacy. But I took a drive by it after an Easter visit with my family in West Virginia last weekend. I was delighted to see it was still there even though the area has seen a lot of new development. Many of the trees have disappeared in the last 40 years, but the new owners have kept it almost exactly the same and it really looks great.
