Julia later meets the professor Gabriel who takes her to a private part of college to meet “The seven”, a group of people who are involved in some type of experiment that involves that cursed videotape. They watch the tape, films themselves and passes this take to another one, calling this process a “tail”. Julia meets Skye again and goes to her apartment where Skype forces Julia to watch the videotape. However, Holt manages to contact Julia and warns her not to watch the videotape no matter what.

The plot moves on with Holt telling Julia that he has already seen the video and now there are only 12 hours left for him to die. However, Julia is not ready to let anything happen to Holt and decides to watch the videotape as well. Soon after the video ends, the curse starts with the phone ringing. To ensure her survival, Julia turns to Professor Gabriel for help who notices that there is something different in the videotape that Julia saw; it is little bit longer, can’t be copied and has some new clips to it.
