Necessary Evil - English Transcript

The eternal life since the dawn of time countless fortunes have been spent in its pursuit, only to meet with the inevitable. What would you give to live forever? And be careful what you wish for. My experiment began in the underground caverns outside the ruins of ancient Babylon. Through some connections with the military I contracted a team of mercenaries Ied by Captain Frank Sanders. - We're close. - It should be just ahead. It? Let's move. They haven't a clue what they're about to encounter. Thermographic studies indicate the presence of an advanced life form. Stay close. - Hey. - You ***. It's a haunted place. Get her! Get down. Got her. Shh shh, keep it quiet. Keep it quiet. Shut her up. - Quiet. - Shut that *** up! Shh! What is that? At that moment Sanders and the being became one the mixing of human blood with that of the gods. Now that he's captured, the creature's D.N.A. will be extracted, analyzed and catalogued at a secure location. Was that where I said it was? I've got men down, Fibrian. Captain Sanders said a monster touched I ordered that no one would touch it. A monster, General? No. It's written in the sacred text the uniting of angels with men. Where the hell are you gonna put it, Doctor? This thing gets loose it's game over. I know just the place. And that's Phase One. Thus begins Phase Two. Well, it's early, Deborah, but everything seems just fine. For the morning sickness. - What is this? - Reficul makes giving birth as easy as getting pregnant. Oh, no. You know how I feel about the whole pharmaceutical thing. Yes, I know and I want you to continue with your organic regiment, but supplement it with this prescription. Dr. Logan, I really don't think Uh uh uh, doctor's orders. Dr. Feldman, pick up line one. Dr. Feldman, line one. Deborah, as long as we've known each other, have I ever steered you wrong? Okay, fine. But I'll have you know, this is way out of character for me. There. You've been taking your vitamin supplementation? Yes. I hate to bring it up, but the baby's father... Oh, not a matter of discussion, so yeah... Deborah, I'm only thinking of the baby. You know, a single birth can change the entire world. And we're here for you every step of the way. Thank you. Every experiment requires a laboratory. The perfect neighborhood lawn sprinklers, two-car garages and 401(k)s you never know what's just below the surface. Frank Sanders's ex-wife Helen Green has found herself in a maze so intricate she couldn't find her *** with both hands. Patience. I know. Hello. No, she can't come to the phone. We're in the middle of a birthday party. Leave a message. I'll be sure she gets it. Okay, hang on. Coldwater Cafe, right? Wednesday, 10:00. I will huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your *** house down. Helen! The creature's blood provided benefits I'd never imagined healing qualities that became my fountain of youth. Your usefulness to us is at at end. What would you give for one more day of life? - Oh, God. - The universal question. As a major stockholder in Phoenix Pharmaceuticals, Helen's knowledge of our research posed a threat to the project. And sometimes that means having to gobble up their young. Another time then. Happy birthday. - Let's take a ride. - No. - Yes. - No! Stephen! Let me go. Deborah is a fascinating case study. Thinking herself to be a budding journalist, she goes about her business blissfully unaware that she is but a carefully supervised prototype. But the programming is wearing off along with the rose-colored glasses. I will scoop her up in a butterfly net. Help me! Help! Somebody help! The boy was next in line. Help me! Someone help! The only fly in the ointment is Detective Alex Russo from a long line of Russos, a typical cop, part of a mop-up squad, always there after the crimes occur. But his never-ending search for Melissa could be his undoing. Good day, Alex. Deborah, hi. How are you today? - Hi, Mrs. Gamble. - I didn't know you'd be back so soon. I would have gotten your mail for you. That's okay, Mrs. Gamble. Got it handled. - Oh oh, Deborah. - Yeah? How's your mother? She's really good, thank you. Good. Hey, Mom. Yeah, the appointment went great. Uh-huh. Everything went fine. Oh my God, school's great. My thesis is gonna blow the lid off these F.D.A. creeps. Mm, one of my sources is this woman from Phoenix Pharmaceuticals. I think we really hit it off. Yes, Mommy, I'm fine. The baby is fine. The F.D.A. is corrupt. Everything is where it should be. All right, Mom, I gotta go. I gotta go, Mommy. Okay, I'll talk to you later. Kisses. Bye. Speak of the devil. Dr. Logan? Mommy! Daddy! One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Push me on the swing, Daddy. I'll push the swing later. I promise. Come on, baby. Love you, Mommy. Love you, Daddy. Edgewater. Here comes the Kitty Kitty. Kitty wants to play with you. Meow. Pull my bow. That's right. Oh, you've been a bad boy today, honey, huh? I'm gonna have to punish you. Mm, bad. Oh, is this your girl? You could say that. I could say whatever I want. Mm, yeah. This better be good. All right, I'll be right there. I gotta go. - Go? - Yes. Oh, give me a spankie for the road. One more. Gosh, you're so hot. It wasn't my call. - Hey, Alex. - What's up? The call came in around 5:00. 5:00? I was right around the corner. The blood comes up green. Someone comes through the door... Mr. Green's on the phone there... The happy family never stood a chance. It's an ancient Hebrew warning "Know your place." They're back. Hey, Detective, paramedics took the parents over to County Medical, but there's no sign of the boy. They took him like they took Melissa. Hey, Russo, where is your little Limey friend when you need him, huh? We would have never decoded this if it wasn't for Arends. ***. That looks like a bunch of gang graffiti if you ask me. Wrong. When are you gonna let go of that conspiracy crap, huh, Russo? About the time you wipe that frosting off your chin. Hey, Professor Colbert, got a minute? Oh, no. No no no, not so fast. Something's rotten at Edgewater, Professor. Deborah, don't go there. You and I both know they contribute a large percentage of this university's annual budget. The almighty dollar, huh? What, are you on the payroll too, Professor? All you have are unsubstantiated claims bordering on slander. Okay, look, if you can get me in there, I swear I can get us the story of the millennium. You've got to get me in there. Otherwise they're not gonna give me the time of day. I need hard facts, solid research. Oh, okay, you want hard facts. How about 1967, a C.I.A.-sponsored experiment known as Project Often toxicology, transmission and behavioral effects of drugs tested on-- I'm sorry, what? Human subjects. If you so much as accuse Edgewater of human test trials Please. Researchers paralyzed 64 Edgewater inmates using a neurological compound called cesanyl choline which suppresses breathing, Doctor. It's like drowning. How about 1981 when they tested cloinen on elderly patients. Why would they do that? I'm sure the list is endless, Miss Fielding, but I'm afraid if you had your way people would still be dying of smallpox - or polio. - Wow. I took you for a serious journalist, and here you are with all this Area 51 crap. Creative Writing's on the third floor. I'm late for a lecture unless you have something else. Yeah. And Reficul is? A replacement for spinal epidurals during childbirth. - A maternity drug? - Mm-hmm. Why would Edgewater want? I don't know, but Edgewater's patients are a "Who's Who?" of government PhDs and linguists and experts in fields ranging from molecular biology to unarmed combat. And yet Reficul is listed as a pregnancy drug in its l.P.O. statement. - God. - Yeah. That guy look pregnant to you? Where did you get this disk? Don't tell me it's that woman from Phoenix Pharmaceuticals. Deborah, you can't use stolen material as evidence. Look, what's going on here is nothing more than neural cosmetology plastic surgery for the brain. Ask for Dr. Neil Fibrian. Mention Reficul and Captain Frank Sanders. Come on. Please please please please please. All right. Go on, get out of here. Thank you. You are an amazing human being. Miss Crandall, get me Edgewater. If I give you a shot of this, with your body weight, it will kill you dead. So I'm gonna give you a break, you mutt. I'm gonna give you a break. I'm gonna let it go in through your skin. Your skin's as smooth as a baby's ***. There you go. Yeah. That's right. You are really something. You are the heir apparent, aren't you? But you're not. You're the stepbrother. We're gonna take your daddy and chop him up and sell him by the pound. Oh, yeah, we are. There you go. Yeah, fear. It's all fear. How do you feel about coulrophobia? Hmm? How do you feel about clowns? The minute man stood on his hind legs he was terrified. We've been living with that every since. We gotta shed light into the darkness of ignorance and abuse. When I was at that crime scene it smelled like sulphur. Sulphur, eh? Then it really should take the game up. The only game I'm good at is drinking. You know, Iife can't be all theological essays, archeological digs and ancient code-cracking any more than your life can be. Bring on the usual suspects. What's wrong? Upsetting? Can we get to the point, please? More lessons on the Ancient Hebrew. Another child missing, I presume? You know, it took me weeks to find out what this ancient text really meant. I doubt if there are 10 souls on earth who would know those symbols. The text is from the Chiseled Tomb of the Nephilim angels gone bad, a rather unsavory lot who bedded all the women and produced a new race of men. And you believe in this crap? Do you? You smelled sulphur. In any event, Nephilim owners today would be a nigh unstoppable force. So I should watch my back? And your step. And, Alex, give up the Scotch. Seems the long-standing feud between my loyal attack dog Barro and Russo is finally coming to a head. Leaving so soon, Russo? A coward dies many times before his death. *** you, Barro. The valiant die but once. From soldier to Edgewater patient on to Gordian Labs C.E.O., Frank Sanders's rise was meteoric. But his ego is eating him alive. I am gonna flip this mutt. Thank you for joining me today, gentlemen. Hold on, please. Colbert knows about Reficul. What? We should have killed the boy. According to you, bringing Deborah here was necessary for us. "Us"? What do you mean, "us"? Don't speak. I'm back. Gordian Labs stands at the forefront of pharmaceutical innovation. With our l.P.O. going public tomorrow, coupled with Reficul's F.D.A. approval in less than two weeks our wonder drug will hit the marketplace between New York and Beijing. Our investors reap the benefits of 20 years' worth of Gordian Labs' R&D. Thank you. Listen to me. Going public now will attract... too much *** attention. Oh, that hurt. You need me. We need each other. I'm the one that extracted the D.N.A. from the creature. Without me there's no Reficul. Know your place, Doctor, Iest your precious fountain of youth may suddenly run dry. - You want it? - Yes. Thank you. By the way, Deborah's smarter than you realize. Let's hope not, for your sake. You are so pathetic. Your days are numbered, buster. Hi, honey. I was just tidying up. Hi, Mrs. Gamble. How are you? I'm okay. Oh, your face looks so drawn, Deborah. Have you lost weight? No. You know, I told your mother and father I would take great care of you, Deborah. Oh, good. I'm sorry, how did you get in here? Oh, you left the door unlocked. - Really? - Yeah. Wow. Okay, I don't mean to rush you off, but I've really got to get some stuff done. Oh, I'm sorry. Okay, all right. - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. - There you go, sweetheart. - Thanks. You're doing such a good job. You're not my mother. Hey, you've reached Deborah. Leave a message and I'll call you back. Hey, Deborah. It's Professor Colbert. I spoke with Dr. Fibrian and mentioned Frank Sanders and, well, he said he'd make room for you on his schedule. Thank you. Deborah, it's Dr. Logan. You missed our 4:00 again. I thought we agreed we would meet once a week, for the baby. Call me to reschedule. I haven't heard from you. Are you okay? Have you been taking your pills? You stay the hell away from me. Deborah, I'm only thinking of the baby. Yeah, I'll bet. Listen, I know who you are. I know what you did to me. And I'm gonna go do something about it. Oh, Mrs. Gamble, you should have checked the mail, yeah. She came to maybe 20 minutes ago, just heard her son's missing, mentioned Edgewater a few times. - Thanks. - You got it. Mr. Green, I'm Detective Russo. My wife's not ready to see anyone right now. I'm here to help you find your son, Mr. Green. Who are you meeting at 10:00 at Coldwater Cafe? I don't know. She's a friend of my wife's. She called when the door blew open. "Know your place." Whoever took your son also took a little girl 16 years ago. We don't know anything about that. Reficul. Remember that. Lower. What do you need now? You, me, a moonlit beach, margaritas. Gonna take more convincing than that. Do me a favor, pull up Reficul and tell me what you get. Gordian Labs to offer l.P.O. Their drug Reficul is getting the F.D.A. nod. Phoenix lndustries is doing their stage testing. Oh, I read about this a pill that replaces the epidural. Do me a favor, print that up for me. Okay. There is no "us." There's only me. This boy is like a fat worm on a fishhook makes one hell of a lure. Stephen, where do you think you're going? All right, guys, get over here. Let's get this *** over with. Let's get out of here! - Daddy. - Sweetheart. Oh, please. Oh, please be okay. Oh, please. Oh, please be okay. Oh my God, I'm sorry. Opening these files this isn't gonna bring your Dad back, Alex. Your father was a great cop. And this thing that you have with the Edge it's getting in the way of you moving up the ranks. I'm touched by your concern. Russo, get in here. Keep this *** up and Hummel gets the case. "1989, on Edgewater grounds without a warrant 1990, harassment, stopping employees' cars for questioning." And the list goes on and on. Let's get one thing straight this town gets all the government subsidies it applies for. Every school has new computers. Not a pothole on the road. And all our wage requests are greenlit. A kid is missing. The M.O. matches the Sanders girl kidnapping to a tee. Are you gonna tell me this has nothing to do with your old man? My dad went into the Edge and came out in a bag. The F.B.I. investigation proved Proved nothing. A little girl goes missing, my father killed in the line of duty, and both of them were just so neatly swept under the rug. You know why you're still a lieutenant after 14 years? 'Cause you just can't leave well enough alone. But at least we have new computers, right, Captain? Get the hell out of my office, Russo. We're gonna need backup, Alex. Call it in. We're out of our jurisdiction. They took the girl. A man commits a crime on your watch you are the jurisdiction. You got that? - Yes, sir. - Come on, son. Hey, let's go. Okay. Russo. Okay, I'll be right there. - You couldn't keep him isolated? - Don't look at me. We called as soon as we could. His folks are down the hallway. Hey, Russo, you look like yesterday's meatloaf. I feel like it too. - I need to speak to your son. - No no, Detective. We have Stephen back now and we just want to move on. Who are you meeting at Coldwater Cafe at 10:00 AM? Tell me what I need to know to shut Edgewater down. You be careful what you wish for, Detective. Hey, Russo... We got the woman who found the kid. We found this in her car. What do you suppose she's got against... Edgewater? I'm Detective Alex Russo. What's your business at Edgewater? I'm sorry, is this what I get for being a good Samaritan? I bring an injured kid to the hospital I go to jail. You know, if I'm not charged with anything you can't hold me. Where did you get the information in this manuscript, Miss Fielding? I don't divulge my sources. Is that so? A little F.Y.I. I can lock you up for 72 hours just for *** and giggles. Wow. So much for "protect and serve," huh? I got it from a woman at Phoenix Pharmaceuticals. What do you care? I'm here to help you, Miss Fielding. I'm on your side. Really? And what side would that be exactly? Did you say "Alex Russo"? So you're Detective Michael Russo's kid. Do you want to tell me what happened to your dad or would you like me to do it? The door! You know what? Walk away. That's fine. I'm a little too much woman for you anyway. Love a man in a uniform. I'll be here. - Hey, Tammy. - Yeah? Give me a background check on Deborah Fielding, please. Okay. Bishop County Sheriff's office. Parsons here. Uh-huh. I see. I'll take care of the girl. You make sure Russo stays out of the way. And be blunt. You follow? Mm-hmm. The crime scene at the Green home begs the question what is the connection between Phoenix Pharmaceuticals, Gordian Labs, Edgewater's development of Reficul and Helen Green? Could Phoenix be nothing more than a dummy corporation tucked away in a hidden room? Oh, what a tangled web we weave. You're getting warmer, Detective. You're good. You're free to go. Thank you. - Gail. - Hey. Hey, was there a lady in here, maybe in her 50s - looking for someone? - No. About 15 minutes ago, though, there was a young girl, 20-ish, blonde, pretty. She just left. She I could be 20-ish, blonde and pretty. Salaam, Russo. You just freed a key witness in a kidnapping. Did you hold the door open for her too, Captain? Now why on earth would a man in my position want to hinder a journalist's First Amendment rights? How many potholes are you gonna have filled on this one, huh, Captain? You have no idea what you're up against. I know one thing this case just fell under my jurisdiction. And if Edgewater cut you any checks you'd better get to the bank. - Russo. - What? What's wrong? I'm done with this place. I quit. Okay, well, look, I ran the backgrounds on Deborah Fielding F.B.I., lnterpol everything. Nothing comes up. It's like she doesn't exist. She's a ghost. It's the Greens' statement on the attack. Thanks. Where's Russo? I'm supposed to give him this lab work for the Green investigation. Oh, I'll take care of that. Good job. - Can I have your name, please? - Deborah Fielding. Oh, Miss Fielding, we've been expecting you. Proceed through the gate. This is all about meditation and sanity as opposed to delusion. All right, who wants to finish this? You want to finish it? Okay, Norm, you are delusional. No eating the clay. If you finish this right I'm gonna let you go home. He's gonna go home. Okay, go ahead, Norm. It's all yours. - You're lost? - I don't know. - Maybe I can help. - Maybe you can. Are you Deborah Fielding? I am. Allow me to introduce myself No, I know who you are, Dr. Fibrian. How? Well, I've read pretty much every article you've ever done on higher brain function and the effects of neurological drugs on patients with compromised immune systems. - I'm flattered. - Okay. - It's a little embarrassing. - Oh. Buon giorno. You're an investigative journalist, aren't you? - Of sorts. - Yeah. Andiamo. Please. This is our reception area. I love that perfume you're wearing. They're gonna have to check your jacket and bag. You know, I just did a workshop on digging up the dirt, yes. Psychiatric hospitals are not the house of horrors that most visitors imagine, I'll tell you that. Well, you could have fooled me. How so? Avery, is my docket clear? Your schedule's clear, Neil. Let me see. Good good. Would you like some tea? - Sure. Why not? - Good. Make sure, Avery, that Naomi takes her medicine, all right? - I'll see to it. - Thank you very much. Follow me. - Your tea. - Thank you. - Tea to your liking? - It's perfect, thank you. I usually bring guests to my office first, but I thought we'd tour the ward. Doctor, do you mind if I record our conversation? Dr. Neil Fibrian, Director of Psychiatric Medicine, Chief of Staff at Edgewater Psychiatric Hospital, Bishop County, California. How's that? - That was very good. - Good. - Your professor... - Colbert. Yeah, Colbert, he called me about your visit. He said it's something about Reficul. Well, it's just one of a long list of drugs being engineered here, isn't it, Doctor? Is this gonna be an interrogation, Miss Fielding? Are you gonna deny that Edgewater is an incubator for government drug design? Have it your way. Interrogation it is. Deny it? I revel in it. Every drug on the market, prescription or otherwise, eventually gets government funding in its development. And what exactly do you mean by the word "development"? - What do you think I mean? - I don't know. You tell me. Wouldn't you agree that the creation of a drug for the better of mankind as a whole that all means should be explored in the advancement of the human genome? Oh, please. I'm sure that every mad scientist has used the exact same rationalization in their work. How sophomoric of you. I'm sorry? I can assure you that nothing that happens at Edgewater could be construed as mad. Yeah, listen, I'd like to show you another part of the ward. Basta. Listen, your professor told me of a Captain Frank Sanders. Who is Frank Sanders to you, Miss Fielding? Are you feeling all right, Miss Fielding? Fine. Now about Edgewater. When we're done with the tour you'll know everything. So I'm not gonna be allowed to see your patients? I wouldn't say that. You were coming here expecting to find straitjackets and rubber rooms, weren't you? But you know what? I think it's something far more personal. Wasn't it? There's no place like home. Dr. Fibrian! Dr. Fibrian. Why are you doing this to me? Oh, God. Hello. Hi, this is Detective Russo with the Bishop County Police Department. Do you have a student - by the name of Deborah Fielding? - Yes. I'm just going over some names across my desk. I was hoping we could meet. Is there anything wrong? It's in regards to Edgewater. Yes yes, that would be fine. Come on by. - Hello? - Hello? - Hello? - Hello? Goodbye, Doctor. I'm Detective Russo with the Bishop County Police Department. Now why on earth would we need detectives here in Bishop? You'd be surprised, Miss... Oh, I'm Mrs. Gamble. You know, as good as things are going here in Bishop, someday soon we won't need detectives here at all. Is this Deborah Fielding's apartment? OH, yes, this is her apartment. Is she okay? I just need to take a quick look around. I get my *** kicked by Betsey Crocker. Mrs. Gamble the watcher, you've outlived your usefulness. Know your place. A girl after my own heart. When a child dissects a frog for his biology class, would any sane, rational person say that this exercise could be construed as evil? Feeding time, eh, Doctor? Yes yes yes yes. It feels her, wants her. Yeah, like a spider devouring its young. It's not what it was when it came to earth. Nor am l. You're the ears. You're the eyes. You're the link the link. There it is. What are you up to, Doctor? Okay. Thank you. Oh, yes. Ahh. Feels like everything's unraveling, doesn't it? Doesn't it? Yeah yeah. By the way, how does Deborah know your name? You tell me. Miss Fielding, are you with us? Miss Fielding, Miss Fielding, are you with us? Hello? You don't mind if I tape our conversation? I thought we might start with why are you here? If I don't answer, are you gonna shock me again Iike you did Katherine Sanders? Oh, God. You don't mind if I call you Deborah, do you? Sure. Let's be friends. I'll take a cup of drugged tea with two sugars. Why are you here, Deborah? Stick it up your-- Oh, God. You're pregnant, young lady. I suggest that you protect your fetus. Tell me your business here. Convince me you're not the F.D.A., so mired in their own bureaucracy, it takes them a year just to pass gas. You're here why? I'm here for the truth. The truth? Would you like to know the truth about your mother? How about that? She lives just outside of Bishop. See, see, I don't have a mother. And my father's not a what do you have in there? A bank supervisor? He was brought here for treatment. And you want me to think that that's where I grew up, but that's not my house. And I don't know the woman in that photograph. And I'm not the baby in that photograph. Oh, God. So whose file do you have there, Doc? Why don't we switch places? Eine zigarette, bitte. You received a package. What was in it? Girl Scout cookies. As much as I dislike other people's pain... A disk. - A disk? - Yeah. What happened to you when you saw what was on that disk? Did your life pass in front of your eyes, Deborah Fielding? I'm not Deborah Fielding. You're right. You're not Deborah Fielding. She was a patient of mine. She had a flesh-eating bacteria on her eyes. I had to slice her eyelids off and record her sleep deprivation for the military in pursuit of my Mad Scientist's degree. It was so bad I wanted to commit suicide, but I did not want to suffer the humiliation of autopsy. When your mother calls do you feel the need to pick up the photo album that you keep beside your bed, similar to this one perhaps? You know 15 languages, in fact. You know how much time we invested in you, all for the advancement of the human genome? Let me ask you something. This the answer, please. People are gonna come looking for me. They are. Why are you here? Oh, please please, stay away from me. Oh, God. You came to me, Deborah. Don't call me that. What did you do to me, you psychotic piece of ***? Let me ask you something. Who is Captain Frank Sanders to you? Hmm? What is he to you? He's my father. So he is. But it isn't your love for him that brought you back, is it? No. I had to know the truth. He stole you from your mother, brought you to me. I created you with his blessing. He gave you up to it, flesh of his flesh, blood of his blood. How can a father do such a thing? You hate him, don't you? Know your place. What will you do when you see him again, Melissa? What will you do? Kill him. Russo. Russo, thank God. I've had a *** of a time trying to reach you. - Go ahead. - You won't believe this remember that green blood sample I showed you? - Yeah. - It's blood, human blood. - Stay with me on this one. - I'm here. The blood sample I took is infected. It's D.N.A. sequence's been overwritten by something that mimics a virus. So the guy's sick. Whatever it is replicates at a rate faster than H.I.V. Mental capabilities, physical strength everything that makes us who we are gets radically changed. A new race of men. Yeah, but instead of happening over the next couple hundred years, it could be overnight. Thanks, Dennis. Got a 187 reported at Bishop College a Professor Richard Colbert. All units respond. Copy that. - Hello? - Tammy, are you sitting down? I am now. I've waited 15 years for this. Deborah Fielding is Melissa Sanders. Sanders is slowly piecing together the puzzle. He and the creature's usefulness are at an end. Fortunately, in their treatments I thought ahead and implanted a time lock in their D.N.A., making them weak and helpless, their fates so intertwined. It was you all along. You sent the package to Deborah. You altered her D.N.A. What did you have to gain from this, Doctor? You exposed us to a great deal of danger. You cannot catch a falling knife. Your Gordian Laboratories l.P.O. is in the crapper because of your greed and your vanity. Oops. You know what? You are numero freakin' zero. Deborah's all alone now. All she has is me. Do you understand? Melissa is awakening to the fact that her entire life has been but a carefully scripted illusion, complete with fake parents, false memories and artificial surroundings. Nephilim. Who's there? We don't want any visitors right now. Open the door, Mr. Green. I need to speak to your son. Detective... It's not a request. Who is it, Marcus? Helen Green... How can I help you? ...or is it Sharon Sanders? Excuse me? I need the truth. I never stopped looking for your daughter. When did you? My daughter? That's why you didn't want to see me at the hospital that night. That's why your husband mentioned Reficul, hoping that I could do something. I don't know what you're talking about. Stop the ***, Mrs. Green. The handwriting is identical. - That doesn't prove anything. - You greenlit their testing. They took Melissa and both of you were under their thumbs. - That's enough. Get out. - It's not enough! I didn't hurt Melissa! You knew it was a bad drug and you gave it a pass. They made me. I wanted to expose them. You have no idea what they can do. She's been through enough. And so has my son. They haven't done anything to deserve this. It only takes one person to start a chain reaction. Double a penny a day. Would you rather have a million dollars or double a penny every day for a month? It's just a penny, right? One becomes two. Two becomes four. At the end of a month you have 1.3 billion pennies in 31 days. There's a garbage chute. It's behind the hospital. There are trees stretching over the fence. You shouldn't go back there. I just love a good family reunion. All the world is a stage, Melissa. Let's see how you play dead, sweetheart. - Dad. - Melissa, behind you. Get him. En garde! I'm coming to get you, Russo. You ready for round two, esse? It's all been lies. Come to Papa. You're mine. You're mine. You're mine. Honey. We have to get out of here. We're in danger. Remember? No matter how far apart we are, in our hearts we'll always be together. I love you. I love you too, Daddy. Daddy? Daddy. We have to go. You hate him, don't you? What will you do when you see him again, Melissa? What will you do? Know your place. We have to go. Ah, like father like son. Hmm? Yeah. Officer, did you ask yourself-- why did I take Stephen Green, the brother? What could be revealed that's been hidden behind these walls for decades?
