Struggling with her grief, she fails to notice that James has become secretive and withdrawn, spending hours alone in his room playing out death scenes with his toys. When an overflowing sink brings down the living room ceiling, Bryony is convinced that James is responsible despite his protests that he is not to blame. With their house half-flooded, Bryony bundles James into the car and drives to her parents' house only to discover that her sister, Lisa, is house-sitting. The sisters are not close but, reluctantly, Lisa agrees to let them stay. Soon there are more unexplained incidents and when Lisa notices that strange things happen whenever James is upset she becomes convinced that he must have some form of psychic power.
