Archie who is grieving the death of his mother gets drunk after her funeral.  He is spending the next few nights in his mothers manor house that he inherited to pack up her belongings. Him and his mother were never close as she was always away at work or they were arguing. After pouring himself another drink of whiskey he sits in a old leather chair and cheers the portrait of his mother out of respects. You can see on his face that he feels like there is a part of him missing.  He ends up sleeping in this chair the whole night still in his funeral suit. 

The next morning he is on the phone with his aunty jane as she is checking up on him. They start uncomfortably talking about what to do with the manor as it is too big for him to live there alone.  They discuss ideas to sell it. Archie starts to walk down the hallway to a landing with photos spread across it. Picking one up he shows a small smile and then dusts it off. Wondering over to the window he looks at the view of the estate But from the corner of his eye he sees a hunched figure who turns and looks up at Archie with a grin that could creep any human out.  Archie releases it is just the gardener. Although he knows this he is still curious so goes downstairs to the backdoor to look for him. He can’t see anyone or even clues that there was anyone ever there.

Archie starts to get hungry so he goes to the kitchen in hope that there is something to eat.  He's looking in cupboards but there isn't anything he fancies. He looks in the fridge and there's some expired milk, a few rotten vegetables and a container with a note on. He picks it up to inspect it, its cabbage soup with a note saying ‘Fresh From The Garden’.  He thinks its a little odd but he's so hungry that he doesn't care. Moving over to the huge dining room with a radio on that is echoing and dull. He sits down and starts eating his cabbage soup slightly. After taking another bite he looks a bit concerned as he pulls out a long hair that is similar to his own but far to long.  He shrugs it of thinking his mother made for her maid or something.  Suddenly the radio stops and the lights flicker out.  Frustrated he gets up to investigate and get a torch.

As he walks outside to the junction box he looks at the grounds taking in its emptiness. He creeks open the box and looks at it cluelessly as he has no idea what to do. He spots a switch out of place,  he puts his torch on his shoulder and with this you see the gardeners behind his with a shovel that is lit up with the light from the torch.  Flipping the switch the humming from the electricity gets louder until Archie turns around and nothing was there. Archie decided to investigate the grounds more and relive some memories from his childhood. Walking down the long gravel path looking sombre.  Archie starts walking through the gardens and reaches an overgrown area.  You can hear crunching from Archies feet,  him thinking it is just some rubble but it is actually pearls. He sees a little shed that he never had the curiosity to explore when he was younger but now has a burning curiosity to find out what is inside. 

Pushing open the creaky door he sees a lit candle next to some gardening tools.  As he looks closer he realizes there is a photo of his mother surrounded in other lit candles which almost looks like a shrine for her. He looks creeped out and keeps looking, seeing a perfume bottle he takes a whiff and he recognises the smell but cannot pinpoint what it is. Lifting up the photo he sees that there is a nightdress underneath which he recognises was his mothers. There is also a tin which he rattles and then opens finding a box full of teeth which he drops on the floor out of fear. All of the candles goes out. Looking around he sees the gardener in the mirror standing outside the window with more candles ready to replenish his shrine. 

After catching the gardener standing, staring deadly at Archie he swings open the door of the shed.  Terrified he looks around looking for the gardener but once again he is nowhere to be seen. Feeling like he is being watched Archie starts running back up the gravel path, almost tripping along the way. He runs into the house and locks the door frantically and then finally stopping for a second to catch his breath. Scrambling around the kitchen to find a knife but they are all packed away so the best thing he found was a rolling pin to defend himself. Looking outside he sees the gardener standing just a couple feet away from the porch with a spade in one of his hands. He sprints up the stairs and tries to open any door he can get into but he finds that all of them are locked shut until he comes to the drawing room. Almost giving up hope he tries the door knob and to his surprise it opens. Losing all hope he pours himself a drink whilst standing face to face with the portrait of his mother. Whilst taking a big swig the gardener creeps up behind him with the spade raises high above his head. Suddenly the glass slips from Archies hand and plummets to the floor.  Blood splatters all over his mothers portrait and gets ripped apart by the old rusty spade. The gardener looks down at the boy who looking up at him with merciful eyes. The whiskey and blood slowly seep together and blend into the carpets. All the gardener does stand there, with a look of achievement on his face. Archie closes his eyes accepting his fate.  BANG.  The spade strikes into Archies head for the very last time. 

The gardener is putting the last little piles of dirt on a grave like mound that is surrounded by cabbages.  It seems to be a cabbage patch. There is a slightly older looking dirt pile next to it. There is a fair amount of dried up blood that is on the spade being used to finally pat down the final dirt pile.  The gardener looks happy with himself like he has just succeeded the plan he has been coming up with since Archie was a child.
