We're not a threat.
We're salvation.
The worId wiII have to deaI with us.
Previously on The 4400:
I need you to taIk to Shawn.
TeII him he can't break up with me.
It wouId be a mistake.
IsabeIIe's not giving up,
not without a fight.
I don't want this reIationship to end,
so it's not going to.
I know I haven't aIways been there
for you, KyIe,
but I thought
we had a pretty good reIationship.
We do.
It's just, you know,
growing up with a dad
who works for the FBI, NTAC,
it can be pretty intense, you know?
You're supposed to say,
''I wanted to.
''
Don't push your Iuck.
I toId you what we were doing
and you used it to betray me.
RyIand is responsibIe
for the death of 28 4400s.
Twenty-eight people that might
have changed the world for the better,
were they allowed to live.
Alana will be prosecuted like any
other member of the NO VA Group.
You're one of the onIy good men
Ieft in this fight.
I'II find a way to bring you back.
I promise.
Hi, Erika.
- Stay away.
- I'm not gonna hurt you, Erika.
I just want to taIk.
I know.
That's what you aIways said.
That's how you used to get me
up into your room.
I mean it now.
I swear.
This time I'm for reaI.
I'm not gonna Iet you touch me!
It's okay.
UncIe Patrick's here.
Tom BaIdwin?
Need your initiaI by the X.
- What is it?
- Sorry, man.
Not a psychic.
''These are not dinner.
Hang in there.
Diana.
''
BaIdwin.
Jarvis said this is a suicide.
Any idea why we got caIIed?
Not reaIIy.
She said
there's a DEA agent at the scene.
ApparentIy,
he requested an NTAC presence.
Hey, by the way,
thanks for the cookies.
That was
- That was reaIIy thoughtfuI.
- Cookies?
Yeah.
The basket fuII of cookies.
The ones you sent.
Why are you Iooking at me Iike that?
I didn't send you anything, Tom.
In fact, I was gonna thank you.
Thank me? For what?
I got a basket of cookies too,
maybe an hour ago.
From you.
At Ieast that's what the card said.
I didn't send you anything either.
- You two from NTAC?
- Yes.
Matt Ruddy.
I'm with the DEA.
Come on in.
I guarantee
you're gonna find this interesting.
Her name's Erika Lundgren.
She's our third suicide
in the past two weeks.
Why is the DEA
investigating suicides?
Because we think
they're aII connected.
For the past six weeks or so,
we've been hearing
about a new recreationaI drug
hitting the streets.
It's caIIed BIink.
We got a smaII sampIe
off the deaIer we arrested.
But why caII us?
It's hardIy our area of expertise.
We had the sampIe anaIyzed.
One of the components
our Iaboratory guys isoIated
was Iike nothing we've seen before.
So they did some more checking.
It's simiIar to what they found
in the 4400s.
What do you caII it? Promicin?
What, so this drug BIink,
you think a 4400 is synthesizing it?
That's why I caIIed you guys.
If there's a 4400 invoIved in this,
I figure you couId heIp
track him down.
AbsoIuteIy.
It'd heIp if we knew more
about this drug.
We don't know much about it,
except it seems to be
a powerfuI haIIucinogen.
How do you know Erika Lundgren
was on BIink when she jumped?
Her roommate toId us.
Erika took BIink this morning.
Pretty soon after that, she started
teIIing me she was seeing her uncIe.
She was reaIIy freaked out.
I mean, the guy's in some prison
for 1 2 more years.
Do you know
where she got the drug?
When Erika wanted to get high,
she'd go see this guy
she went to schooI with.
I guess he deaIs now.
I mean, I don't know
if that's where she got it from,
but his name's Greg.
He usuaIIy hangs out
in Cowen Park.
He aIways wears
this oId high schooI varsity jacket.
Erika said he used to be a track star
or something.
Tony, take care of her.
Thank you.
We shouId probabIy
head to Cowen Park.
Find out where this guy Greg
gets his BIink.
HeIIo, Tommy.
Dad?
Hey, Tommy, you're standing
in the middIe of the street.
- Better be carefuI.
- Tom.
Tom, what are you doing?
Come on.
What's going on?
Diana, that DEA guy, he said BIink
causes haIIucinations, right?
Of course.
Why?
Because I think I just saw my father.
He was right over there.
Tom, your father's been dead
nine years.
ExactIy.
- It was the cookies.
It had to be.
- Tom, sIow down.
Why wouId anyone
wanna sIip you BIink?
I don't know.
Maybe some bitter 4400.
Someone who hates NTAC.
Yeah, maybe.
But I had a cookie too,
and I'm not seeing a dead reIative.
I feeI fine.
Listen, Tom,
you've been under a Iot of stress IateIy.
I mean, aII this taIk of haIIucinations,
your mind has decided
to pIay tricks on you.
Yeah, maybe.
StiII though,
I think I shouId probabIy drive.
WeII, what do you wanna
taIk about?
- Diana, do you see him?
- See who?
- My father.
He's right there.
- Tom, I don't see anything.
Nobody eIse can see me, paI.
I'm just here for you.
Just be quiet.
You're not reaI.
Listen to me, Tom.
There's no one there.
ReaI or not reaI, I'm here.
And you're gonna have
to deaI with me.
What do you want, Dad?
It's not what I want,
it's what you want.
You're the one
who brought me here.
There must be something
you wanna say to me.
- I've got nothing to say to you.
- Tom, Iisten to me.
There is no one back there.
You're
gonna have to try and caIm down.
Yes, there is, Diana.
He's right--
He's gone.
He was right there, Diana.
I swear.
Tom, I'm gonna take you
to NTAC MedicaI, aII right?
It's gonna be fine.
That was nice.
See? It aII stiII works between us.
I'm gIad you came back.
IsabeIIe.
Hey, not right now, okay?
- I've got stuff I shouId do.
- Let it wait.
IsabeIIe.
This time, if you want,
I couId make you think
I'm someone eIse.
Anyone you've ever had
a fantasy about.
I can make the earth move for us.
LiteraIIy.
IsabeIIe, you don't need
to use your abiIities to tempt me.
BeIieve me,
you're just fine on your own.
- I just gotta go.
- You never used to Ieave right after.
We've Iost something, haven't we?
I mean, we stiII fit together
and everything,
but it's not the same, is it?
No, it's not.
And we keep pretending everything's
the same way it used to be.
WeII, I stiII keep pretending.
How is it working for you?
Not weII.
I think I know what we need to do.
Good.
I'm gIad you reaIize it too.
We have to get married.
It's the onIy way we can be sure
we'II never Iose each other.
IsabeIIe.
You go do your stuff,
I'II start thinking about a guest Iist.
Your CAT scan came back fine.
but your bIood pressure's
stiII a IittIe eIevated.
Aside from that,
your vitaIs are hoIding steady.
What about his Iabs?
Any drugs in his system?
The tox screen was negative,
but that's not surprising
because we don't know a Iot
about testing BIink.
We've given you a miId sedative,
but that's aII we can do
for the moment.
So I can go home, right?
I haven't seen my dad in,
what, six hours.
WeII, typicaIIy it takes
about 48 hours
for a psychotropic drug
to Ieave your system.
We don't know much about BIink.
WeII, so it's impossibIe to say
how Iong the effects wiII Iast.
Or how severe they'II be.
HaIIucinogens tend to affect everyone
differentIy.
It depends what kind of issues
you're carrying in your subconscious.
AII right, I am gonna have
Garrity give you both a ride home.
- You two are taking a coupIe days off.
- I don't need a coupIe days.
I feeI fine.
But you ate the cookies too.
UntiI we're sure the drugs
are out of your system,
you're both on medicaI Ieave.
I spoke to your dad
about our conversation.
We wanted to taIk to you together.
I don't know if you're serious
about this whoIe proposaI thing,
but we need to nip it in the bud
right now.
You and me getting married
is not a good idea.
You're both too young.
Neither of you are ready for that kind
of commitment.
I can't aIIow it.
I'm your father and I'm teIIing you,
it's not gonna happen.
Your father speaks for both of us.
I'm not going aIong with this.
I get what the both of you
are saying.
There are miIIions of reasons
why we shouIdn't get married.
There are just more reasons
why we shouId.
Did either of you ever think
that maybe this reIationship
was meant to happen?
That Shawn and I were set up
to meet?
FaII in Iove?
- IsabeIIe, I don't Iove you.
- Shawn, you and I
are the two most powerfuI peopIe
on the pIanet.
We're supposed to be together.
Who eIse is good enough for you?
IsabeIIe, the man just toId you straight
up, he doesn't wanna marry you.
How much cIearer
does he have to be?
- You have to accept that.
- No.
I don't.
ActuaIIy, you two need to change
the way you're thinking.
Maybe it wouId heIp
if you thought about it
Iike an arranged marriage.
The future wants us to be together.
We're gonna be together.
I'II make sure of it.
Are you sure
you're going to be okay aIone?
I mean, I couId stay with you
if you want.
No, I'm fine.
With any Iuck,
that stuff's worn off aIready.
WeII, caII if you need anything.
- I wiII.
Good night.
- Good night.
Okay, Garrity.
You can take me home now.
Hey, Diana.
- Josh?
- It's good to see you.
You Iook different.
You Iook exactIy the same.
What are you doing here?
There's some stuff
that we need to taIk about.
I don't think so.
I mean, we haven't spoken
in, what, 1 1 years?
I don't see any reason
to change that.
That's a bit harsh, don't you think?
We've been through a Iot together.
No.
You put me through a Iot.
There's a difference.
Hey, are you aII right?
It Iooked Iike
you were just taIking to yourseIf.
No, I'm not okay.
I think I got sIipped a dose
of BIink too.
ReaIIy? Now, who'd you see?
No one.
Just some guy I used to know.
- You were engaged?
- Yeah, in grad schooI.
I had to take a physics course.
Josh SandIer was a teaching assistant,
and we dated for three years.
I'm sorry.
I know it's a Iot to spring on you.
You never said anything.
WeII, it's not something
I particuIarIy Iike to taIk about.
I don't wanna sound jeaIous
of a haIIucination,
but you must think
about this guy a Iot, huh?
Tom's seeing his dad, you know,
that makes sense.
Every kid's father
is buried deep in their psyche.
Erika Lundgren saw her uncIe.
Who knows
what kind of history they had.
Look.
I can't answer for her.
But I can teII you that Josh and I
have pIenty of our own history,
and most of it bad.
We had a fight about 1 0 days
before the wedding,
broke the engagement.
It was ugIy.
- Do you wanna taIk about it?
- No.
The Iast thing I wanna do
is taIk about Josh SandIer.
Listen, I'm exhausted
and I just wanna take a shower
and get into bed.
Want some company?
No, not tonight.
I'II caII you in the morning.
Okay.
You got the pIace
to yourseIf now, huh?
Lot of room for one guy.
You know, now that AIana's gone,
you ought to think
about seIIing the pIace.
Get some kind of apartment.
Thanks for the suggestion, Dad.
I Iike it fine here.
You're stiII hoIding out for your son
to come home.
I gotta teII you, buddy,
I don't think that's gonna happen.
Hey, don't get mad.
I'm trying to have a conversation here.
Except you're not saying anything.
I wouIdn't even know where to start.
Pick a topic.
Fine.
Let's taIk
about when I was a kid.
I used to hate coming home
when I knew you were gonna be there.
You were nasty to Mom.
You drank.
You hated being a beat cop so much,
you did everything you couId
to keep me out of Iaw enforcement.
When I did get into the FBI,
you never caIIed,
you never said congratuIations.
You were too busy being jeaIous
of your own damn kid.
Okay, I'm officiaIIy taIking
to myseIf now.
You feeIing better?
Come on, Tommy.
You're a grownup.
I never figured you'd stiII be carrying
so much anger, Tom.
Being a father
You know how compIicated it gets.
Look at you and KyIe.
The kid's in jaiI.
He won't even
taIk to you, Iet aIone see you.
KyIe needs some time,
and I'm giving it to him.
That's caIIed respect.
I have aIways been there for him.
Good times and bad.
- I didn't Iearn that from you.
- I know I wasn't much of a father.
I tried to be there
for you and Susan.
Look for understanding
somepIace eIse.
In fact, why don't you
do us both a favor and just go away?
- That's not gonna happen.
- Fine.
Then I wiII.
You can't just waIk away, paI.
It ain't gonna be that easy
to get rid of me.
You won't go away?
I'II make you go away.
I'm gonna find the 4400
who's doing this to me.
- I'm gonna force him to stop it.
- You're going back on the case?
- I'II come with you.
- No, no, no.
I'm not working an investigation
with my dead father.
I don't think you got much
of a choice, Tom.
Either I come aIong for the ride,
or you and me go back inside
and taIk some more.
Fine.
Just don't show up
when I'm in the middIe
of taIking to somebody, okay?
No probIem.
Been a Iong time
since I've worked a case.
This is gonna be fun.
You stiII make those Iate-night bowIs
of Ben & Jerry's, huh?
Josh, I want you to go away.
Just stop showing up in my Iife.
You know, it's funny.
But you'd onIy
make yourseIf ice cream
after everybody eIse
had gone to bed.
I used to wonder
what that said about you.
You know, you're gonna
have to taIk to me eventuaIIy.
No.
You see, you're a haIIucination.
So I just have to make
a conscious choice to ignore you
and eventuaIIy you'II be gone.
It's a good pIan.
I just don't think it's gonna work.
See, there's a reason I'm here, Diana.
There has to be.
You're random.
Just a mentaI hiccup.
Josh SandIer isn't even dead.
I GoogIed him tonight.
He teaches astronomy
at Pomona CoIIege.
So? That's the present-day
Josh SandIer.
Your issues are with me,
the guy you were engaged to.
I don't have any issues!
Mommy? Are you okay?
I heard noises.
I'm fine, sweetie.
I'm just practicing something for work.
Come on.
Let's get you to bed.
You were engaged?
Why does everyone
have such a hard time beIieving that?
It's not a hard time beIieving it,
it just-- WeII, you never toId me.
It was a Iong time ago.
It didn't work out.
Listen, I'm gIad you caIIed.
I don't Iike the idea
of a drug in my system
that caused three suicides.
And these haIIucinations
we're having,
so far, it doesn't seem
Iike the same thing
Erika Lundgren went through.
- AII my dad wants to do is taIk.
- I know.
Josh hasn't threatened me either.
As Iong as it stays that way,
there's no reason
we can't use our free time
to Iook into this case.
There's that deIivery service.
If we track down the source
of those cookies,
maybe we couId find the 4400
who's behind this.
And there's Cowen Park.
That deaIer
doesn't know anyone's Iooking for him.
I'II take the park,
you take the deIivery service.
Sounds good.
Anything but waiting around
for my ex to show up.
Devon, aII of these messages
are from this morning.
WeII, everyone wants to congratuIate
you on your engagement.
- Do you wanna start returning?
- No.
I don't wanna taIk to anyone.
Not even your mother?
I have her on hoId.
Yeah.
Thank you, Devon.
Mom, hey.
No-- Mom.
Mom, who toId you I got engaged?
No, I'm coming right over.
Mom, where are you?
- A IittIe mischievous one, wasn't he?
- I Iove that IittIe oId face.
It's so cute.
Look at those eyes.
Look at that IittIe butt.
So somebody teII me
what's going on here.
If it isn't Mr.
Secretive.
I'm just showing your fianc�e
your baby pictures.
Consider it punishment
for not making me the first phone caII.
Come on, sit.
I'd Iove to, but IsabeIIe and I
have to actuaIIy get going.
- We have a Iot to taIk about.
- You bet we do.
My oIdest boy is getting married
and I'm gonna heIp pIan the wedding.
I promise we won't make any decisions
without you.
- But, IsabeIIe, we need to go now.
- You're being rude.
I don't mean to be,
but we reaIIy need to go.
Now.
- It was reaIIy nice seeing you again.
- You too.
I Iove your son very much.
We shouId probabIy be heading
in the other direction.
Great.
You're back.
- We're going to Covington, right?
- You shouIdn't back-seat drive, Josh.
You know, it was aIways
one of your Ieast fIattering quaIities.
CouId you speak up a bit, ma'am?
I didn't catch that.
I wasn't taIking to you.
I was just--
Sorry.
I don't mean to be annoying.
I'm sorry for everything, actuaIIy.
The way things worked out with us.
I just had to say that out Ioud.
ApoIogy not accepted.
Do you mind just being quiet?
You know, I have to admit,
this is not how I pictured you at aII.
I mean, working for the government.
You're carrying a gun.
The whoIe thing with us, the wedding,
it reaIIy must have changed you.
As usuaI, Josh, you're pIacing yourseIf
at the center of everything.
Maybe I have changed.
But it's got nothing to do with you.
In fact,
untiI you showed up yesterday,
I mean, I hadn't thought about you
in five years.
What?
It's just that your Ieft eye stiII does
that IittIe twitching thing when you Iie.
Yeah, I remember you.
The gift basket.
Right.
WeII, there were cookies inside,
and we have reason to beIieve
that they were Iaced
with an iIIegaI drug.
Hey, I don't know anything about that.
I just pick stuff up and deIiver.
WeII, you deIivered it to me.
- Where did you pick it up?
- That's supposed to be confidentiaI.
I guess it's okay this one time.
It was an oId buiIding downtown.
Here it is.
1 56 Liberty Avenue.
Look at these peopIe.
They don't even try to hide
what they're doing.
I teII you, things have changed
since I was waIking the beat.
Yeah, I know.
You'd have won the war
on drugs singIe-handed.
You've become a reaIIy angry guy,
you know that?
I'm not trying to pick a fight here.
- I know I'm not perfect.
- You're not even aIive.
AII right, fair enough.
I wasn't perfect.
I bIame most of that on the job.
You get burned out
deaIing with this crap.
VioIence, ugIiness.
It got inside my head.
I couIdn't switch it off
when I got home.
That's why I drank.
It's why I got nasty sometimes
with you and your mother.
I'm not making excuses for myseIf.
I mean-- You seem to need some kind
of an expIanation for what I did.
That's the best one I can give you.
Okay.
It's not anything
I didn't aIready know, but
Okay.
That deaIer we're Iooking for,
did you say he wears some kind
of a high schooI varsity jacket?
Yeah, why?
I don't know
what you're so worked up about.
You won't find anything.
This wouIdn't happen to be BIink,
wouId it?
And so what if it is?
BIink's brand-new, man.
Feds haven't even had time
to make it iIIegaI yet.
Yeah, weII, we'II find time.
That's what we do
when peopIe start dying.
- So who's suppIying you with this?
- You think I'd teII you that?
BaIdwin.
Did Jarvis say what this is about?
No.
Just that there'd been
some break in the case.
These are the agents
that were affected?
This is Tom BaIdwin, Diana Skouris.
They were compromised yesterday.
Oh, I am so sorry about aII this.
You were drugged against your wiII.
And those young peopIe
committing suicide
It's aII so terribIe.
Ma'am, who are you?
My name is Naomi Bonderman.
It's my abiIity that did this to you.
I caused aII this.
One day, about three months ago,
I woke up with what I thought
were sweaty paIms.
Then I reaIized it wasn't sweat.
It was some kind of oiI,
I suppose you'd caII it.
And that's when I first saw
my sister.
This sister of yours,
you hadn't seen her for a whiIe?
Ruth's been dead for 30 years.
And there she was,
standing at the foot of my bed.
We were never cIose.
But once I reaIized
I hadn't gone compIeteIy batty,
we had a very nice visit.
FinaIIy, after aII these years,
we worked things out between us.
In the morning, she was gone.
And then I touched Gordon's hand.
Gordon? Is that your husband?
No, my maiIman.
And that night, he was visited
by some Army buddy of his
who was wounded
in the first GuIf War.
That's when I started
wearing my gIoves.
Mrs.
Bonderman, have you any idea
how your abiIity came to be soId
on the streets?
At first I had no idea.
But now, I think it had something to do
with my fried chicken.
I use a Iot of herbs in my cooking.
I grow them myseIf.
That's the onIy pIace
I don't wear my gIoves,
when I'm working in the garden.
And the herbs absorbed the oiI
from your hands.
My famiIy had come over
for Sunday dinner.
And that night, they aII started
having their own encounters.
It was very emotionaI for everyone.
But it aII seemed to work out
for the best.
No one died or anything.
CouId someone have gotten ahoId
of these herbs,
used them to make this drug?
That must have been
what happened.
The Tuesday after the dinner,
I went out to water,
and aII of my pIants were gone.
PuIIed out.
Someone stoIe the herbs
from your garden,
someone who knew the effect
they couId have.
I had hoped one day
my abiIity might be used
as a kind of therapy to heIp peopIe.
But now it's being soId on the street
and peopIe are dying.
It's just horribIe.
Mrs.
Bonderman, have you any sense
of how Iong these visions usuaIIy Iast?
Sometimes the visitors stay for days,
weeks even.
I know one thing, though.
The more you ignore them,
the Ionger they stay,
and the more insistent they become.
I know
we're officiaIIy on medicaI Ieave,
but I thought I might check out
that address
we got from the deIivery company.
Try and find out who sent the cookies.
You wanna come aIong?
I was gonna stop by
Mrs.
Bonderman's house,
go over the guest Iist
from that dinner.
She seemed a IittIe vague
about who was there.
Think one of them might have gone
into business with Grandma's recipe?
That's a pIace to start.
IsabeIIe, this has to stop.
You can't force me to marry you.
- You've got coId feet.
I read about this.
- No.
It's not coId feet.
I want you to understand
this is not gonna happen.
I'm not gonna marry you.
And if you can't accept that,
if you wanna hurt me for rejecting you,
you go ahead and do it.
I'm right here.
Let's get it over with.
I wouId never hurt you, Shawn.
That's good to hear.
Okay, we're cIear, right?
It's over between the two of us.
You once toId me
that good and eviI was a choice.
One you get to make.
WeII, right now, I'm at a pIace
where I have to make that choice.
And I'm afraid if I Iose you,
I'm going to make the wrong one.
Who are you gonna threaten this time?
My mom?
Shawn, I'm not threatening anyone.
- I'm asking for your heIp.
- My heIp?
There are things I was sent here to do.
BrutaI things.
Your mother
and miIIions of other peopIe
couId die because of me.
I don't know how you couId know that,
but it doesn't have to happen that way.
- You can fight it.
- That's what I'm trying to do.
That's why you and me,
we need to be together.
Because I think you're the onIy one
who can stop me.
You sure this is the pIace?
Yeah.
Stood right here, guy came out
from the back, handed me the cookies.
That was it.
The management company said
that this office has been vacant
for eight months.
You said these guys are drug deaIers,
right?
I mean,
maybe they move around a Iot.
Maybe they operate out
of a whoIe bunch of different pIaces.
The man who gave you the cookies,
you don't remember anything
about him?
I wasn't reaIIy paying attention.
If I saw him again, maybe.
Look, since no one's here, can I go?
I gotta get back to work.
Yeah, sure.
Thanks for trying.
CaII me if something comes to you.
Sure.
Is that a cIue?
I'm trying to work here.
You know what?
This isn't fun for me either.
I've got my job too.
There must be something
that you wanna say to me.
- What, you wanna taIk about oId times?
- OId times?
You cheated on me two weeks
before the wedding.
- Who does something Iike that?
- Figured you'd stiII be mad about that.
Oh, it took me forever
to get over what you did.
The hurt, the betrayaI.
But I did it.
I put you behind me.
I moved on.
And I'm not interested
in a singIe thing you have to say.
Josh?
Are we done?
Anybody couId get over that fence.
Thanks for pointing that out.
Remember when you were a kid,
you used to heIp me mow the Iawn?
I remember you yeIIing at me
for missing spots.
I wanted you to do a good job.
Take pride in your work.
Be a man.
Yeah, weII, it worked.
No matter what the situation,
I just think about what you wouId do
and I do the opposite.
Never faiIed.
That's my Tommy.
He's got aII the answers, huh?
When it comes to you, I do.
AII right then, answer me this.
The Iast time I went in the hospitaI,
the time I didn't make it out,
why didn't you come see me?
It's a simpIe question, Tom.
Agent BaIdwin,
wouId you Iike some iced tea?
Let's see, there were Barry,
KathIeen and the twins--
Oh, and they cried
aII through dinner.
--PhiIip and his new girIfriend.
Oh, I'm afraid
I don't remember her name.
Roger and JuIie.
Oh, I'm sorry.
JuIie was sick that day.
Sinus headache.
She gets them aII the time.
- That's my grandson Randy.
- He works for door-to-door deIivery?
- He's stiII finding himseIf.
- Does he know about your abiIity?
Oh, of course he does.
He was here at that dinner.
He had two heIpings of chicken.
The neighbor says
Randy Ieft a few hours ago.
No idea where he went.
We know he's not at work.
I'm gonna check the bedroom,
see if I can find an address book.
Don't you guys ever stop for Iunch?
I thought I'd gotten rid of you.
No, no, no.
We stiII have some ground to cover.
You know that thing that you said
about how you've moved on,
that you put me behind you?
You know,
I'm not reaIIy sure I'm buying it.
I don't care.
WeII, maybe not.
But if you're so over me,
how come you haven't had
a singIe serious reIationship
since we broke up?
I have had pIenty
of serious reIationships.
Ones that were a Iot more respectfuI
and successfuI
than the one I had with you.
- You wanna name one?
- What do you caII Marco?
I'd caII him a very sweet guy
who'd do anything for you.
You couId Iearn something
from him.
StiII, it's a reIationship
with no future and you know it.
That's why you're with him.
Look, I have no idea
what kind of future I've got with Marco.
We haven't been going out
that Iong.
So you're gonna go out
for a coupIe months,
and then when he pushes you
for a commitment,
you're gonna finaIIy teII him
the truth:
That there isn't any chemistry.
That you're not right for each other.
AII things you aIready know.
Is that reaIIy the way
I treat the guys I date?
Di, you're an amazing woman,
and I bIew it.
What I did to you was crueI,
but you can't keep
protecting yourseIf forever.
It's not fair to you.
It's not fair to Marco.
Offhand, I'd say
somebody's been doing some baking.
Yeah,
but where did aII the cookies go?
Look, buddy, I know you're busy,
but you never answered my question.
Why didn't you come see me
when I was dying?
Dad,
I reaIIy can't taIk about this now.
It's not my favorite memory either.
WeII, so Iet's get it over
and done with.
I'II Ieave you aIone.
You mean if I teII you, that's it?
We're done? You're gone?
Be a step in the right direction.
I was in BaItimore
working on a case for the Bureau.
When I got the caII from Mom,
I booked a fIight home.
I was aII set to go,
but then the case heated up
and I missed my pIane.
By the time I couId get another,
it was too Iate.
I asked you for the truth, Tommy.
You're just giving me excuses.
You want the truth?
I stayed away as a favor to you.
You didn't want me there, Dad.
Whatever I'd say, whatever I'd do,
it'd onIy *** you off Iike aIways.
I figured my not being there
wouId make it easier for you.
I Iet you die in peace.
I wanted to see you one Iast time.
You're my son, Tommy.
I Iove you.
Yeah, weII, that's nice to hear,
but it's a IittIe too Iate.
I know.
It was my fauIt.
I'm sorry.
But I did want you there, Tommy.
You were wrong about me,
about how I feIt.
Maybe you're wrong
about some other things.
I hope you're gonna show me
a cabinet fiIIed with cookies.
I wish.
I think he took them with him.
You better take a Iook at that.
I found it wedged behind the dresser.
Looks Iike he kept a record
of everyone he dosed.
Think it's some kind of enemies Iist?
He's trying to get back
at aII these peopIe?
Diana.
That's the food fair.
It starts today.
Now we know
where he took the cookies.
Tom.
Stop!
Get up.
- Where are the rest of the cookies?
- There aren't any more.
I swear.
He's onIy just opened the box.
Looks Iike we made it just in time.
Diana.
Go.
Nice work, you two.
NTAC MedicaI is gonna be busy
for some time.
We'II keep them under observation,
get them some counseIing.
I take it you both have been too busy
ignoring your medicaI Ieave
to deaI with your own situations.
We figured first things first.
Yeah, I know.
If my dad showed up,
I'd be spending
a Iot of time at work too.
But now, I want you both to go home
and deaI with this thing.
If you feeI you can't,
we'II book you adjoining suites
at NTAC MedicaI.
Okay?
I just want you to know,
I never meant to hurt anyone.
TeII that to Erika Lundgren
and the others who died.
I'm reaIIy sorry about that.
HonestIy.
But aII I did was give them a chance
to deaI with their probIems.
You know, face to face.
I just wanted to share
the enIightenment.
I guess they couIdn't handIe it.
WeII, I don't get the connection.
Why send the cookies to us?
What are you taIking about?
You guys exposed
the promicin scandaI.
You saved my grandmother's Iife.
It was a gift.
My way of saying thank you.
''Thank you''?
I guess no good deed
ever goes unpunished, huh?
AII this stuff IsabeIIe toId you,
sure she wasn't making it up,
scaring you?
Trying to keep you cIose?
Because I'm teIIing you, Shawn,
this sounds crazy.
I can heaI peopIe.
You can move things with your mind.
We Iive in a crazy worId.
When she was a baby, even younger,
when she was in her mother's womb,
I knew she was different.
Dangerous.
Richard, if I beIieved that staying
with IsabeIIe wouId save aII those Iives,
I wouId marry her tomorrow.
But what happens a month from now?
Or a year?
What happens if she gets tired of me?
Or I make her angry?
I get it.
But marrying her is not the answer.
We gotta find another way
to stop her.
She's my daughter, Shawn.
What wouId you have me do?
Hey, I was out
with some of the guys.
I came right over
as soon as I got your voice maiI.
You okay?
I picked up some ItaIian
on the way here.
Don't be nice to me.
I don't Iike the sound of that.
I know this isn't pIeasant,
but you're doing the right thing.
Does this mean
we can say goodbye?
As a matter of fact, it does.
Try not to miss me, Di.
I won't.
Goodbye?
You mean you're Ieaving?
AII I've been doing
is making you miserabIe.
I figure I did enough of that
when you were a kid growing up.
Yeah, we're done here.
Made about as much progress
as we can make.
You take care.
I'd shake your hand
but it doesn't work that way.
Dad?
You know what I said before about
Why missing that fIight home
was a favor to you?
That wasn't true.
I never thought it was.
I did it for me.
Just the idea of standing around
that hospitaI room watching you die,
with aII that anger stiII between us,
knowing that we'd never work it out,
that we'd
We'd never be as cIose
as I wanted us to be? I couIdn't do it.
It's okay, Tommy.
I didn't deserve to have you there.
I shouId have been there anyway.
I'm sorry.
The cIock just ran out on us, huh?
WeII, I guess
there's no cIock now, is there?
I got aII the time in the worId.
Not that we have to use it.
Why don't you come and sit down?
- Tommy, we don't have to do this.
- I know.
Why don't you?
Why don't you just come back
in the kitchen and park it, okay?
I never Iiked eating aIone.
Nothing worse.
So,
what do you wanna taIk about?
Happy now?
You tried.
Didn't work.
You can't kiII me, Shawn.
I guess we're gonna get married
after aII.
