Mia gets a new sibling, only for strange things to start happening.
to:
The Curious pushes a pram through a busy street.
Mia's mother and stepfather Julian have just had a new baby boy. The baby constantly cries whenever Mia is around him or tries to hold him. Whilst attending to the baby, she hears the closet door rattling and when she opens it, everything falls out, causing her mother to think Mia deliberately made a mess. Mia is woken in the night by the sound of her mother's music box, and when the music finishes, the box somehow winds itself up again. Mia sees her newborn brother standing up by himself and screams, alerting her mother and Julian. Mia's mom thinks her daughter is upset by having a new brother and stepfather, and is playing around to get attention. She does not believe Mia's claims to have seen and heard strange things.
One day when Mia is taking care of the baby, he disappears. She searches the house for him, and hears a demonic giggle. Mia again sees the baby standing up by himself, but when her mother returns, the baby is back in his crib and someone has written "I AM THE ONLY CHILD" on his mirror. Mia's mother is angry and thinks Mia is just being selfish. Julian is more understanding, and tells Mia that they have been trying for a baby for a long time; her mother will be devastated if anything happens to the baby. When the baby uses his alphabet blocks to communicate with Mia and transforms into an imp in front of her, Mia getsa new sibling, only for strange things the idea to start happening.
provoke him into doing it again and capture it on camera. But when she tries to show her mother the video, it actually shows her trashing the baby's room and setting up the alphabet blocks herself. Mia's mother now cannot cope and wants to send her to boarding school.
Through a conversation with Julian, Mia realises she ''did'' vandalise everything - the baby is controlling her mind and distorting her memories. She also works out that the high-frequency sound from Julian's guitar amplifier is dangerous to the imp. Mia locks herself in the baby's room and wires up the amplifier, planning to use the sound to destroy the imp. But when her mother pleads with her not to hurt the baby, Mia decides that she can't do it because her mother wanted the baby so much. She asks the baby what she must do to make their mother happy; he moves his alphabet blocks to give her his answer. A week later, Mia seems to be getting along with the baby and her mother is relieved. But when Mia is alone with the baby, it is revealed he is using her as his slave. The camera shows his answer to her a week previously: "WHATEVER I WANT."

She wasn't. It was the imp doing things offscreen.
