"Rebecca and Tyler prepare for a week-long stay with their grandparents John and Doris, while their mother Paula goes on a cruise with her new boyfriend. The two kids, who have never met their grandparents, intend to film a documentary following them along their VISIT. Paula has not seen her parents for 15 years, after she eloped with her high-school teacher, who has since left her. She tells Rebecca little about her disagreement with her parents, suggesting that she asked for more details. John and Doris greet Rebecca and Tyler at the train station. Once they are settled in their grandparents' isolated farmhouse, Rebecca and Tyler are instructed to never go into the basement because it contains toxic mold. That night, John tells Rebecca and Tyler that as he and Doris are elderly, they go to bed at 9:30 p.m. An hour past \"curfew\" Rebecca goes into the kitchen for a snack and sees Doris projectile vomiting. Later Rebecca mentions it to John, who dismisses it saying that Doris has the stomach flu. Over the next few days, Rebecca and Tyler notice their grandparents exhibiting more strange behavior. When Rebecca asks Doris what happened the day Paula left home, Doris begins to shake it off until Rebecca restrains her. John and Doris are later confronted by a woman who helps them in counseling; she is seen entering the house but never leaving. Tyler, concerned about the occurrences, decides to secretly film what happens at night. Doris discovers the hidden camera, retrieves a large knife, and unsuccessfully tries to break into the children's bedroom. When Rebecca and Tyler view the camera footage, they contact their mothers. When shown images of John and Doris, Paula panics and says those are not her parents. Rebecca and Tyler attempt to leave the house, but the imposters trap them and force them to \"make it the perfect family night\" and play yatzee. Rebecca excuses herself and escapes to the basement. There she finds the corpses of the real John and Doris, along with uniforms from the mental hospital where they worked, concluding that the imposters are probably escaped patients. The fake John grabs Rebecca and imprisons her in a bedroom with fake Doris, who then tries to eat her. Rebecca stabs fake Doris with a glass shard, then flees. Rebecca tries to save Tyler, but fake John grabs her. Tyler tackles fake John to the floor, then slams his head in the fridge door until he dies. The two escape outside where they are met by Paula and police. In the aftermath, Rebecca asks Paula about what happened the day she left home. Paula states she had a physical fight with her parents and never VISITED them after that. However, John and Doris had tried to contact her afterwards, and Paula concludes that reincolliation was always possible. She tells Rebecca not to hold anger after Robert and hugs her."@en . . . "The Visit (original title: Der Besuch der alten Dame, \"The Visit Of The Old Lady\") is a tragicomedy play by the Swiss dramatist Friedrich D\u00FCrrenmatt. Even though it has a simple (minimalist) structure, it's a complex psychological work with several twists, encompassing 3 acts. The play takes place in the 1950's. The extremely impoverished town of Guellen prepares to welcome home Claire Zachanassian, quite possibly the richest woman in the world, who was born in the sleepy Guellen but moved abroad years before. They intend to woo her with fond memories (since they place wasn't such a sty back then) and have her ex-boyfriend, Alfred Ill, try to woo her into giving them $100,000. She offers one billion, half to the town itself and half to be given out between the people... if the villagers can set aside their morals for her. Due to the many twists in this play, some spoilers may end up unmarked. As many relating to the major twists (from the end of act 1 and the start of act 3) will be hidden as possible. The play, together with The Pirate Jenny, inspired Dogville. \n* The Bad Guy Wins. It was inevitable by the end. \n* Batman Gambit: Claire knew the town needed her money because she set it up that way herself. \n* The Chessmaster: Claire. When asked to invest in the town's mill and mine, both of which could be extremely profitable if someone just used a little cash to open then she reveals she bought them already. She's the one who closed them in the first place. \n* Cloudcuckoolander: The eunuchs Koby and Loby. A tragic variant, because it is implied they were made that way by torture. We know Claire had them blinded and castrated, at the very least... \n* The Cuckoolander Was Right: But they say some disturbing things in the play that make perfect sense once you know everything... \n* Comically Missing the Point: The press thought Ill was screaming \"Oh God!\" in joy. Then again, Claire pointed out before that she can make the press do what she wants. \n* Deal with the Devil: Claire's deal is close enough. Sure, you can have your money... if someone kills Ill. \n* Everyone Calls Him \"Barkeep\": Most of the townsfolk go unnamed and are only known by their professions. Matilda, even though she is named, is called Mrs. Ill by the script. \n* Humans Are Bastards: Every plot point relies on it. \n* Living Prop: Literally, the trees in the forest are actually actors with their arms held out (going by the stage directions). \n* Money, Dear Boy: Another major plot point. Guellen needs money...but what are they willing to do for it? \n* It's also implied Ill married Matilda because her family owned the general store. They don't seem to care too much for each other, outside of the portrait plot point. \n* The Needs of the Many: Used as justification later about taking Claire's deal. to the point where the Mayor tells Ill to just kill himself so no citizen has to murder him. \n* Only Sane Man: It dwindles down to the Doctor and the Schoolmaster, and then just the Schoolmaster, and then it's Ill. \n* Pragmatic Adaptation: A recent Dutch production team realized that the Netherlands don't have any mountain towns (due to there being no mountains in the whole country). The location was changed to a northern fishermen's island, with the train replaced by a boat and everyone doing northern accents. It worked beautifully. \n* Red Right Hand: Claire has a prosthetic hand and foot to represent her inhumanity \n* Rhymes on a Dime: All the names of the people who work for Claire. The butler is Boby, her bodyguards are former Manhattan gangsters Roby and Toby, and her eunuchs are Koby and Loby. Likewise, her three husbands she goes through in the play are named Moby, Hoby, and Zoby. \n* This is all on purpose. Claire admits she renames her husbands to match the butler, since the butler will outlast them. It's implied she did the same with the others, since we also get Koby and Loby's real names in the story. \n* Rule of Symbolism: Claire's pet panther, the yellow shoes, Claire's prosthetic parts, the hotel's name, the teacher being the last sane man... \n* Screw the Rules, I Have Money: Claire insists she can buy justice. \n* Screw the Money, I Have Rules: The towns people's stance, which starts to break down and eventually stops. \n* Serial Spouse: Claire. She arrives to Geullen with her seventh husband, divorces him and marries a film star, then divorces him too, and prepares to marry a Nobel Prize-winner. \n* Took a Level In Jerkass: Played with. Ill hasn't actually changed since the start of the play, but people start vilifying him more and more so they can eventually justify his death for their money. \n* To be fair, he did a very Jerkass thing in the past. \n* Unlucky Childhood Friend: Everyone sees Ill as this to the fabulously rich Claire, though they point out that if she'd married him she'd be as poor as the rest. Except she wouldn't, since it was Ill refusing to take responsibility for impregnating her that set her on the road to her vast wealth...which she used to ruin Guellen. \n* Woman Scorned: D\u00FCrrenmatt took cues from Medea for Claire."@en . .

"Translated from the Danish by Hanna Astrup Larsen and Published in Twelve stories as Ak, hvor forandret, 1828 No sooner had I returned last spring from my visit to Copenhagen, during which I renewed acquaintance with a friend of my youth, the happy Counsellor of Justice S------, than I decided that I would look up another old friend who lived in a quiet corner far away in Jutland. I had witnessed domestic bliss in the metropolis; now I hastened to seek it in rural seclusion. I had not seen my now reverend friend, Pastor Ruricolus, for more than twenty years, but he and Counsellor S------ and I had once been a fine three-leaf clover. All three were jolly fellows, full of high spirits, enjoying the pleasures of youth in every decent and legitimate way; but Ruricolus was the most elegant of us, both in dress and deportment. I cannot say that he was exactly a dandy, far less a coxcomb, but he was always dressed in the latest fashion and looked, as my poor, dear mother used to say of him, like a peeled egg. He had an ineffable knack of tying his cravat and the knee-bands of his black silk breeches, and yet there was perfect symmetry in all his garments. When on a Sunday in summer we would walk in Frederiksberg Park, he attracted most glances from the ladies, although S------ too was a handsome chap, and I was almost six inches taller than either of them. But let me be honest and confess: it was not only longing for a friend of my youth that drew me; in the place where he was now living I had nineteen years ago experienced my twentieth love affair. It was there I first saw Maren the Second, [Footnote: Not to be confused with Maren the First, daughter of the town musician, see _Nordlyset,_ February, 1827, page 233.] the lovely, angelic Maren Lammestrup, the pearl among all Vendsyssel girls. It was there I for the twentieth time gave away my tender heart and for the twentieth time had it returned to me without dent or flaw. Allow me, my fair feminine reader, to relate my innocent adventure. Ruricolus and I made a summer excursion from the City within the Ramparts, in order to cast a few rays of light over the peninsula of Vendsyssel. (Our voyage to Aalborg deserves a special description, and with the aid of the Muses it shall be written when, by studying our great models in this field, I shall have made myself perfect in the style of travelogues.) We two Copenhageners--I a native, he naturalized--made a sensation by the Wild Bog; our broad-brimmed hats, short vests, and long trousers attracted well-deserved admiration. It was only the proprietor of Tyreholm, Mr. Mads Lammestrup--a rude, uncultured, boorish fellow--who took the liberty of scoffing at our costumes. It was the first time anyone in Vendsyssel had seen long yellow nankeen trousers and gaiters to match with points reaching all the way down on the toes. The brute said we looked like flat-footed cock-pigeons. His daughter, Maren, the sweet dove, found a more flattering simile in our tender and amorous cooing; indeed I attributed--and I believe with good reason--to these same yellow gaiters a good part of the hit we two blades made with her and the other Vendsyssel girls. My heart is made of tinder--no! that metaphor is mislead-ing, for though it catches fire easily, it is not consumed; tinder burns but once, my heart any number of times.--My heart is of gunpowder--but, no! that isn't right either, for though it catches fire in a moment, it burns steadily and quietly, without smoke or explosions.--Now then, my heart must be of asbestos--hm! that won't do, for asbestos doesn't burn at all. Well, then, without any metaphor or figure of speech, I will say that from the first moment I saw her I was over head and ears in love with Maren Lammestrup, the fair maid and sweet flower of the rose. There was to be a haymaking feast at Tyreholm the same day that we arrived at the parsonage in Kringelborg where my Ruricolus's father lived. His reverence received us very affectionately. \"Welcome, Hans Mikkel!\" he called to his son. \"Who's the swain you're bringing with you?\" Hans Mikkel explained. The good pastor shook my hand, and said, \"Welcome indeed, Mr. Copenhagener! What'll you have? A drink! Hey, Barbara! Bread and brandy!--You come just at the right time, children, for there's to be a party at, Tyreholm tonight. Well, Mr. Copenhagener, what can we j use you for? Can you play Polish bezique?\" \"Yes.\" \"That's fine! Can you shoot a hare?\" \"I'm afraid not.\" \"Why, that's bad luck! Do you smoke?\" \"Not that either, pastor.\" \"Fie, shame on you! That's too bad! You'll have to learn. Can you drink a tart?\" \"I can eat a tart.\" \"Ho-ho! You don't even understand this _terminus tech-nicus._ Can you stand a tea-punch?\" \"Hm, I think so--if he doesn't punch too hard. I'll take a look at him.\" (I didn't in the least know what he meant.) The good man laughed till the perspiration stood in beads on his round, reddish-brown face. \"Well, well! Just wait,\" he said still laughing, \"when you get to Tyreholm, Miss Maren will introduce you to the Jutland tea-punch; she knows how to brew it.\" Just then a large hunting dog came in. The pastor turned quickly from me to the dog, put both hands on his sides, and cried, \"By all the periwigs! Where do you come from? Are you alone, Argus? Or is your master with you? Have you been down in the goose-bog--hey?\" While he was still examining Argus, the owner of the dog, a landed proprietor of the neighborhood, appeared and offered to take the pastor along to the party. Both gentlemen were soon deep in a discussion of hunting, and I particularly remember that they both dwelt a long time on the dogma that the mallard duck in slyness was almost equal to the fox, an assertion which they illustrated with a good many striking examples. Meanwhile the carriage came to the door, and the five of us--including Argus--set off for Tyreholm."@en . . .
