https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gKLrvkGUvkYou decide to take care of the animal you saw in the house, before hiding and waiting for the man to come inside. You dispatch and absorb the cat unceremoniously, then go back into the infant's room, skitter up the wall, and into the attic through the access panel.
After a few moments, the man from outside comes in. You hear some rummaging in the kitchen, then footsteps approaching. He peeks into the room, and does a double take as he sees the grotesque monster that has replaced his infant son. The bottle of vodka he was holding slips from his hand and falls to the floor with a dull thud, and he slowly approaches.
"Isaak? Isaak! Moy syn, chto sluchilos' s vami?" he mutters, choking the words out as tears leap to his eyes. He reaches the crib, and looking down, begins to cry. Full, wretching sobs, he cries "Bozhe, pozhaluysta, net. Pochemu vy eto sdelali s moim synom? Vy uzhe prinyali moyu zhenu, pochemu seychas moy syn? On vse, chto ya ostavil v etom mire!"
At the last words, he reaches out as if to pick up his son, and the infected creature lashes out with the tendrils from its mouth, sinking them into the man's neck, jaw, and mouth. A mixture of green fluid and flesh from the infant are pumped into him, as he screams, as if being skinned alive. He drops to the floor, writhing and tearing at his face with his fingers, managing to rip off his lips and most of his nose in his panicked state. His eyes roll back, and his body convulses harder, his back arching to the point where a loud crack is heard, then he stops moving.
He wheezes, slow and steady, the green liquid slowly dripping from his mouth and pooling on the ground, slowly eating away at the carpet fibers.
