Scanner Darkly A
|
| 00:03:00 |
I looked them up. |
| 00:03:03 |
They're aphids. |
| 00:03:05 |
They're in my hair, on my skin, |
| 00:03:08 |
And the pain, Barris, it's unreasonable. |
| 00:03:12 |
They're all over the place. |
| 00:03:15 |
- They've completely gotten Millie too. |
| 00:03:19 |
Listen, you gotta get out of there. |
| 00:03:22 |
Calm down, everything's gonna be fine. |
| 00:03:24 |
Put a couple of them in a jar |
| 00:03:27 |
I'm sure they're aphids, |
| 00:03:29 |
Just in case, okay? Just do it. |
| 00:03:55 |
Gentlemen of the Anaheim 709th chapter |
| 00:03:59 |
...we have a wonderful opportunity |
| 00:04:02 |
The county of Orange has provided us |
| 00:04:04 |
...to hear from and put questions to... |
| 00:04:07 |
...an undercover narcotics agent |
| 00:04:11 |
...fighting this awful |
| 00:04:14 |
It's no secret we're living |
| 00:04:17 |
Nearly 20 percent of the population |
| 00:04:21 |
And as far as anyone can tell, |
| 00:04:24 |
...that is working and helping |
| 00:04:27 |
That company is our sponsor, New Path. |
| 00:04:36 |
You will notice |
| 00:04:39 |
...because he is wearing |
| 00:04:42 |
The exact same suit he wears |
| 00:04:45 |
...during certain parts, |
| 00:04:47 |
...of his daily activities |
| 00:04:50 |
This man, whom we will call Fred |
| 00:04:53 |
...under which he reports |
| 00:04:56 |
...once within the scramble suit, |
| 00:04:59 |
...by even the latest in |
| 00:05:02 |
The scramble suit itself |
| 00:05:05 |
...of approximately a million and a half |
| 00:05:09 |
...of men, women, and children |
| 00:05:13 |
...making the wearer of a scramble suit |
| 00:05:17 |
This is terrible. |
| 00:05:20 |
He looks, does he not, |
| 00:05:23 |
...and nothing more, am I right? |
| 00:05:26 |
Let's hear it for the vague blur. |
| 00:05:37 |
If you saw me on the street |
| 00:05:40 |
"There goes a total dope fiend." |
| 00:05:43 |
You'd feel aversion and walk away. |
| 00:05:46 |
I don't look like you. I can't afford to. |
| 00:05:49 |
My life depends on it. |
| 00:05:52 |
I'm not going to tell you first |
| 00:05:55 |
...tracking down dealers and the source |
| 00:05:59 |
...in the streets of our cities |
| 00:06:02 |
...here in Orange County. |
| 00:06:04 |
I'm going to tell you what I'm afraid of. |
| 00:06:08 |
What I fear, night and day, |
| 00:06:12 |
...your children and my children... |
| 00:06:13 |
I have two little ones, very little... |
| 00:06:18 |
...but not too little to be addicted. |
| 00:06:20 |
Calculatedly addicted to Substance D |
| 00:06:27 |
As many of you know, |
| 00:06:29 |
...are actively engaged in countries... |
| 00:06:31 |
...where it is believed |
| 00:06:36 |
...a small, highly toxic flower, originates. |
| 00:06:41 |
And while our troops are down there |
| 00:06:44 |
...it is up to each and every |
| 00:06:47 |
...to do our part in eliminating |
| 00:06:52 |
It's important you as citizens |
| 00:06:55 |
...all suspicious activity and individuals... |
| 00:06:59 |
...for, simply put, if there were |
| 00:07:03 |
...there would be no market |
| 00:07:13 |
Each day, this disease |
| 00:07:16 |
And each day, the flow of profits |
| 00:07:25 |
Well, it isn't about the profits anyhow, |
| 00:07:31 |
What'd you see happen? |
| 00:07:36 |
If you were a diabetic |
| 00:07:39 |
...would you steal to get the money |
| 00:07:42 |
I think you better go back to the, |
| 00:07:47 |
I forgot it. |
| 00:07:51 |
Repeat after me, |
| 00:07:54 |
"Where the profits flow, |
| 00:08:01 |
- and then |
| 00:08:03 |
At that moment, I would not |
| 00:08:07 |
You know why I've got a block |
| 00:08:10 |
Because this is what gets people |
| 00:08:13 |
It's all so disgusting you want to |
| 00:08:17 |
Come on, Fred, just say this shit |
| 00:08:27 |
Anyway... |
| 00:08:30 |
Substance D. |
| 00:08:33 |
D. |
| 00:08:35 |
D is for dumbness and despair |
| 00:08:40 |
The desertion of your friends from you, |
| 00:08:44 |
Everyone from everyone. |
| 00:08:47 |
Isolation and loneliness... |
| 00:08:51 |
...and hating and suspecting each other. |
| 00:08:56 |
D is, finally, death. |
| 00:09:00 |
Slow death. |
| 00:09:03 |
From the head down. |
| 00:09:09 |
Well, that's it. |
| 00:09:23 |
Okay, let's eat. |
| 00:09:40 |
All right, what's your name? |
| 00:09:42 |
My name... |
| 00:09:46 |
You don't know your name? |
| 00:09:49 |
Probable cause. Out of the car, sir. |
| 00:09:53 |
Now, you have the right |
| 00:09:56 |
And... And anything you say can and |
| 00:10:03 |
When what? |
| 00:10:04 |
You know, fuck this shit. |
| 00:11:32 |
- Hello? |
| 00:11:35 |
Oh, I'm all right. |
| 00:11:37 |
Anything wrong? |
| 00:11:39 |
Just this fucker stole 50 bucks' worth |
| 00:11:43 |
My boss said it was somehow my fault, |
| 00:11:47 |
...which I don't even think is legal. |
| 00:11:52 |
Yeah, they can't do that. |
| 00:11:56 |
At least, they used to not |
| 00:12:00 |
Hey, Donna, |
| 00:12:03 |
Yeah, how much? |
| 00:12:05 |
- Ten. |
| 00:12:07 |
Yeah, I'm hurting really bad. |
| 00:12:12 |
- Yeah, okay. Say, day after tomorrow? |
| 00:12:16 |
I'll come by later, like around 8? |
| 00:12:19 |
Yeah. I'll see you later. |
| 00:12:23 |
- Okay. All right, bye. |
| 00:12:28 |
You see, all symptoms are purposeful, |
| 00:12:32 |
You see? |
| 00:12:34 |
Just the idea of turning yourself |
| 00:12:38 |
...is only naturally gonna make you |
| 00:12:40 |
But that's just a manifestation |
| 00:12:43 |
It's just the: |
| 00:12:46 |
You know, the first thing I hear, |
| 00:12:50 |
...what they do to you, |
| 00:12:53 |
They could never get away with that. |
| 00:12:56 |
It's actually the spleen |
| 00:12:59 |
- The what? |
| 00:13:01 |
Everything is super good. |
| 00:13:03 |
Not with me. |
| 00:13:06 |
No, no, come on. |
| 00:13:09 |
And more people each day. This is |
| 00:13:12 |
Can we not agree on that? |
| 00:13:14 |
- What's on the dessert menu? |
| 00:13:18 |
Like what? |
| 00:13:21 |
Well, we have fresh strawberry pie... |
| 00:13:24 |
...and fresh peach pie |
| 00:13:31 |
- No, we don't want any dessert. |
| 00:13:35 |
Fucking fruit pies are for old ladies. |
| 00:13:38 |
- What do you think about New Path? |
| 00:13:41 |
...what I think, I kind of |
| 00:13:44 |
...that can bring |
| 00:13:47 |
I mean, imagine this: |
| 00:13:50 |
...managed to eliminate the middlemen |
| 00:13:55 |
Wrapped it up in a bow |
| 00:13:57 |
I mean, come on, this is: |
| 00:14:02 |
This is awe-inspiring stuff. |
| 00:14:05 |
I heard you have to go cold turkey. |
| 00:14:07 |
Cold turkey doesn't even apply |
| 00:14:12 |
Unlike the legacy |
| 00:14:15 |
...to addictive behavior |
| 00:14:18 |
...this needs no genetic assistance. |
| 00:14:21 |
There's no weekend warriors on the D. |
| 00:14:25 |
...or you haven't tried it. |
| 00:14:27 |
- Well, I like it. |
| 00:14:31 |
How many caps do you take per day? |
| 00:14:37 |
Very difficult to determine. |
| 00:14:40 |
But not that many. |
| 00:14:42 |
Well, like the old-school pharmacopoeia, |
| 00:14:46 |
These visions of bugs, |
| 00:14:49 |
...but a clear indication |
| 00:14:52 |
...over the initial fun and euphoric phase |
| 00:14:56 |
...to the next phase. |
| 00:14:58 |
News from the guinea-pig grapevine |
| 00:15:02 |
...we won't know |
| 00:15:06 |
You see that we're all canaries |
| 00:15:09 |
I do think I have another source. |
| 00:15:12 |
That Donna chick. |
| 00:15:14 |
- Bob's girl? |
| 00:15:16 |
Yeah, his girl. Although I know |
| 00:15:20 |
Really? |
| 00:15:23 |
- But he talks like he does. |
| 00:15:26 |
That's Bob Arctor. |
| 00:15:29 |
That's not the same, my friend. |
| 00:15:32 |
Donna has an aversion to bodily contact. |
| 00:15:35 |
I mean, junkies lose their interest in sex, |
| 00:15:38 |
...due to organs swelling up |
| 00:15:41 |
And I have observed in her |
| 00:15:46 |
...not just toward Bob Arctor... |
| 00:15:51 |
...but other males as well. |
| 00:15:52 |
I can't believe she doesn't put out. |
| 00:15:55 |
Well, she would |
| 00:16:02 |
For instance, I could show you |
| 00:16:05 |
...for less than 3 dollars. |
| 00:16:09 |
I don't wanna sleep with her. |
| 00:16:13 |
Donna does coke, all right? |
| 00:16:15 |
Three dollars doesn't get you |
| 00:16:17 |
That's where you're wrong, pal. |
| 00:17:06 |
What they've deliberately done... |
| 00:17:08 |
...is mix the cocaine with the oil |
| 00:17:11 |
But my knowledge of chemistry |
| 00:17:15 |
...that I know precisely how to |
| 00:17:21 |
Now, now I will freeze it. |
| 00:17:25 |
Cause cocaine crystals to rise to the top |
| 00:17:29 |
The terminal step, of course, |
| 00:17:33 |
...it involves an intricate and |
| 00:17:39 |
How long is it gonna be in there? |
| 00:17:41 |
Just about a half an hour. |
| 00:17:43 |
You know, I've been thinking, Barris. |
| 00:17:46 |
Even if we do get a pure gram of cocaine |
| 00:17:50 |
...I don't wanna use it on Donna |
| 00:17:53 |
- That'd be like buying her. |
| 00:17:56 |
You give her a gift, |
| 00:18:02 |
Besides, we're talking about |
| 00:18:07 |
And this is his house. He's my friend. |
| 00:18:09 |
He lets you and Luckman live here. |
| 00:18:13 |
There's a great deal about Bob Arctor |
| 00:18:23 |
How did New Path rig it? |
| 00:18:24 |
They're the one place in our entire |
| 00:18:28 |
All the rest of us can be tracked |
| 00:18:30 |
...but no, not at New Path. |
| 00:18:32 |
Hey, that's their contract |
| 00:18:36 |
But I think you're right, it would be |
| 00:18:42 |
What about Donna Hawthorne? |
| 00:18:46 |
I'm systematically working up |
| 00:18:49 |
The quantities I'm buying now |
| 00:18:53 |
She doesn't have |
| 00:18:55 |
Matter of time before she's hooking me |
| 00:18:59 |
I think soon we'll have somebody |
| 00:19:02 |
...and they'll be worth busting. |
| 00:19:04 |
What about Jim Barris |
| 00:19:07 |
Same shit. Nothing new. |
| 00:19:09 |
Well, what about Charles Freck |
| 00:19:14 |
- Up to pretty much the same old thing. |
| 00:19:19 |
Arctor? |
| 00:19:21 |
Yeah, he doesn't seem |
| 00:19:25 |
Still working his nowhere, |
| 00:19:28 |
Drops a few caps of Death |
| 00:19:32 |
I'm not so sure. |
| 00:19:33 |
We just got a tip in from an informant... |
| 00:19:35 |
...that Arctor has funds |
| 00:19:38 |
...what he gets from his little job. |
| 00:19:41 |
And when we checked into it... |
| 00:19:43 |
...we found he wasn't even |
| 00:19:47 |
Yeah. |
| 00:19:49 |
Who's this informant? |
| 00:19:51 |
We don't know. |
| 00:19:52 |
Undoubtedly it's a vengeance burn. |
| 00:19:56 |
I mean, phoning in on each other |
| 00:20:00 |
Anyhow, as of now... |
| 00:20:01 |
...I'm officially assigning you |
| 00:20:07 |
If we're ever gonna get to the bottom |
| 00:20:11 |
So will that mean |
| 00:20:14 |
We got no choice. |
| 00:20:16 |
We'll install a new |
| 00:20:19 |
You'll let us know |
| 00:20:21 |
We'll want storage and printout |
| 00:20:28 |
Total, total, total, totally, |
| 00:20:34 |
I am walking home, |
| 00:20:37 |
...and look what I obtain for a mere $50. |
| 00:20:40 |
- What is it? |
| 00:20:44 |
...of the all-terrain variety. |
| 00:20:45 |
I noticed it in a neighbor's yard, |
| 00:20:49 |
They had four of them. |
| 00:20:52 |
- Don't. Drugs. |
| 00:20:55 |
They threw in these |
| 00:20:58 |
Even hoisted it over the fence for me, |
| 00:21:01 |
That's weird. I didn't know you could |
| 00:21:06 |
It's amazing what you can get for $50. |
| 00:21:08 |
I'll give you 60 right now, |
| 00:21:11 |
You know, |
| 00:21:13 |
...that this girl lives across the street |
| 00:21:18 |
This bike could be hot. |
| 00:21:19 |
They probably jacked it, |
| 00:21:22 |
Sure did, if they've got four |
| 00:21:25 |
Right? You should at least show it to her |
| 00:21:29 |
Yeah. Okay, I can do that... |
| 00:21:30 |
...but this is a boy's bike, okay? |
| 00:21:33 |
Not to invalidate your intuition, |
| 00:21:37 |
Why do you say it's an 18-speed |
| 00:21:41 |
Huh, what? |
| 00:21:43 |
Yeah. Yeah. Six right here, |
| 00:21:47 |
Six plus three equals nine. |
| 00:21:50 |
- It's a nine-speed bike. |
| 00:21:53 |
...for 50 bucks. He still got a good deal. |
| 00:21:56 |
Okay, those guys told me |
| 00:21:58 |
I just got Greeked. I just got... |
| 00:22:00 |
Wait. Wait. |
| 00:22:03 |
Now I count eight. |
| 00:22:05 |
Six here and then two in the front. |
| 00:22:07 |
- That makes eight. |
| 00:22:10 |
...to the missing gears? |
| 00:22:12 |
They were working |
| 00:22:14 |
...with improper tools, |
| 00:22:16 |
No understanding of reverse engineering. |
| 00:22:18 |
When they attempted to reassemble it, |
| 00:22:21 |
They left nine orphan gears there |
| 00:22:24 |
They're still there |
| 00:22:26 |
Let's just go rescue |
| 00:22:28 |
Don't you see |
| 00:22:31 |
They're going to try to sell them to me, |
| 00:22:34 |
...as they rightfully should have as |
| 00:22:38 |
Oh, my God, there's no telling |
| 00:22:42 |
Yeah, but if all of us go together, |
| 00:22:45 |
Oh, you bet they will. |
| 00:22:48 |
- Let's just go as a team, okay. |
| 00:22:51 |
Are you sure there are only nine gears |
| 00:22:54 |
- Eight. |
| 00:22:57 |
Don't you think that before we go over |
| 00:23:02 |
...we should find out for sure? |
| 00:23:03 |
Right, Donna. |
| 00:23:06 |
...on this type of bi...? |
| 00:23:09 |
Get off me! |
| 00:23:11 |
Let me... |
| 00:23:13 |
We are all way too close to this. |
| 00:23:17 |
There's only one thing we can do... |
| 00:23:19 |
...to thwart these albino, |
| 00:23:22 |
We are gonna take this outside, |
| 00:23:25 |
Introduce some novelty. |
| 00:23:28 |
Yeah. |
| 00:23:30 |
By the way, I might take you up |
| 00:23:33 |
No, that was for an 18-speed. |
| 00:23:35 |
You know, for this, 18 minus 10, |
| 00:23:37 |
Are you certain |
| 00:23:42 |
Come in. |
| 00:23:47 |
You are Officer Fred? |
| 00:23:50 |
- Yes. |
| 00:23:59 |
All right, Fred. |
| 00:24:01 |
We're going to administer |
| 00:24:04 |
...and there will be no |
| 00:24:07 |
If this is about the speech I gave to the... |
| 00:24:10 |
What this is about stems from |
| 00:24:13 |
...showing that undercover agents |
| 00:24:16 |
...to neural-aphasia clinics |
| 00:24:19 |
You're conscious of the high factor |
| 00:24:23 |
Of course I am. |
| 00:24:24 |
Of course, |
| 00:24:27 |
...to the addictive properties |
| 00:24:31 |
Well, let's start |
| 00:24:34 |
Within the apparently meaningless lines |
| 00:24:40 |
You are to tell me what that object is |
| 00:24:44 |
In many of those taking Substance D... |
| 00:24:46 |
...a split between the right and the left |
| 00:24:50 |
...which results in a defect within both |
| 00:24:54 |
Although apparently the cognitive |
| 00:24:57 |
You located the familiar object |
| 00:25:00 |
It should just jump right out at you. |
| 00:25:03 |
I see a Coke bottle. |
| 00:25:06 |
A soda-pop bottle is correct. |
| 00:25:10 |
Was it in the speech I gave? |
| 00:25:11 |
Maybe it seemed I showed |
| 00:25:15 |
I mean, might have seemed |
| 00:25:20 |
Are you getting any cross-chatter? |
| 00:25:24 |
- What? |
| 00:25:28 |
If there's damage to |
| 00:25:30 |
...where the linguistic skills |
| 00:25:33 |
...then sometimes the right hemisphere |
| 00:25:39 |
I don't know. |
| 00:25:42 |
What do you see in this second picture? |
| 00:25:50 |
A sheep. |
| 00:25:54 |
Show me the sheep. |
| 00:25:57 |
An impairment of set-background |
| 00:25:59 |
...can get you into a heap of trouble. |
| 00:26:02 |
Instead of perceiving no forms, |
| 00:26:08 |
So there is no sheep here, is there? |
| 00:26:12 |
Was I close? |
| 00:26:14 |
This is not a Rorschach test, |
| 00:26:16 |
...can be interpreted many ways |
| 00:26:19 |
This has one specific object. |
| 00:26:21 |
In this case, a dog. |
| 00:26:26 |
A dog. |
| 00:26:29 |
What's that mean, |
| 00:26:32 |
Who knows. |
| 00:26:35 |
...can we determine... |
| 00:26:38 |
...is it's not interpretive. |
| 00:26:39 |
There are many wrongs, |
| 00:26:43 |
You either get it or you don't. |
| 00:26:44 |
And if you show a run of not getting it... |
| 00:26:47 |
...then we have a fix on |
| 00:26:49 |
...and we dry you out for a while, |
| 00:26:54 |
At New Path? |
| 00:26:55 |
- Undoubtedly. |
| 00:26:57 |
Now, what do you see in this drawing... |
| 00:27:00 |
...among these particular |
| 00:27:06 |
Plastic dog shit. |
| 00:27:08 |
The little kind you can buy |
| 00:27:11 |
Can I go now? |
| 00:27:13 |
You know, Fred, if you keep |
| 00:27:17 |
...you just might make it after all. |
| 00:27:20 |
Make it. Make what? |
| 00:27:22 |
The team? The girl? |
| 00:27:24 |
Make good? Make do? |
| 00:27:26 |
Make out? Make sense? |
| 00:27:29 |
Define your terms. |
| 00:27:31 |
The Latin for "make" is facere... |
| 00:27:33 |
...which always reminds me of fuckere... |
| 00:27:35 |
...which is Latin for "to fuck." |
| 00:27:38 |
And I haven't been getting shit |
| 00:27:42 |
If you guys are psychologist-types... |
| 00:27:44 |
...and you've been monitoring my |
| 00:27:49 |
What the hell is Donna's deal? |
| 00:27:52 |
What do I do? I mean... |
| 00:27:54 |
...how do you make it with that kind of |
| 00:27:59 |
You could buy her flowers. |
| 00:28:01 |
Really? |
| 00:28:03 |
This time of year, you can get |
| 00:28:06 |
Give them to her. |
| 00:28:17 |
Yeah. |
| 00:28:20 |
Hey, Fred, glad you could make it. |
| 00:28:24 |
This is the informant who phoned in |
| 00:28:30 |
- Yes. |
| 00:28:31 |
...and we challenged him to step forth |
| 00:28:36 |
Do you know this man? |
| 00:28:39 |
Sure do. |
| 00:28:41 |
You're James Barris, aren't you? |
| 00:28:45 |
So, Mr. Barris, what's your information? |
| 00:28:48 |
I have evidence that Mr. Arctor is part of |
| 00:28:53 |
They are well-funded and they have |
| 00:28:57 |
And what is this organization? |
| 00:28:59 |
I believe it to be political in nature |
| 00:29:04 |
An enemy of the U.S. |
| 00:29:06 |
Can you give us any specific names of |
| 00:29:11 |
...persons Arctor meets with? |
| 00:29:13 |
Yes. Miss Donna Hawthorne. |
| 00:29:15 |
On a variety of pretexts, he will |
| 00:29:19 |
...and colludes with her regularly, |
| 00:29:23 |
Colludes. |
| 00:29:25 |
- Colludes. |
| 00:29:27 |
Well, I've followed him in my own car |
| 00:29:30 |
- He goes there often. |
| 00:29:32 |
- She is his girl. |
| 00:29:35 |
- Mr. Arctor also seemingly... |
| 00:29:38 |
You think there's anything to this, Fred? |
| 00:29:41 |
I think we should definitely |
| 00:29:44 |
All right. Bring in your evidence. |
| 00:29:46 |
All of it. We want names most of all. |
| 00:29:49 |
Now, have you seen |
| 00:29:53 |
...in any large quantities of drugs? |
| 00:29:56 |
To be certain. |
| 00:29:59 |
Again, without his knowledge. |
| 00:30:01 |
- when the opportunity presented itself, |
| 00:30:04 |
- I can bring those in as well. |
| 00:30:07 |
Is there anything else |
| 00:30:10 |
There is. Mr. Arctor is an addict. |
| 00:30:15 |
And I fear that his mind has become |
| 00:30:18 |
...and he is now officially |
| 00:30:24 |
- Dangerous. |
| 00:30:26 |
...that would occur with |
| 00:30:29 |
I'm quite certain, also, that the optic |
| 00:30:33 |
...due to a weak ipsilateral component. |
| 00:30:36 |
This sort of unsupported speculation, |
| 00:30:40 |
...is completely worthless. |
| 00:30:42 |
Now, we'll be sending an officer |
| 00:30:47 |
- All right? |
| 00:30:49 |
An officer out of uniform, of course. |
| 00:30:52 |
No, see, I could be murdered. |
| 00:30:55 |
As I've already said, |
| 00:30:59 |
Mr. Barris, we appreciate this |
| 00:31:05 |
And if it works out, and your information |
| 00:31:10 |
...then naturally... |
| 00:31:13 |
You see, this man is... |
| 00:31:15 |
His brain is damaged from the use of |
| 00:31:20 |
Nonetheless, the reason I am here is |
| 00:31:25 |
...that would qualify me |
| 00:31:29 |
To surrender and come to |
| 00:31:31 |
- I would like an employment application. |
| 00:31:35 |
We only care whether your evidence and |
| 00:31:40 |
The rest is your problem. |
| 00:31:48 |
Perhaps at the desk |
| 00:31:54 |
You are about to witness... |
| 00:31:55 |
...for approximately 61 cents of |
| 00:32:00 |
...the perfect homemade silencer. |
| 00:32:03 |
Barris, the neighbors are gonna hear. |
| 00:32:05 |
No, they only call in murders |
| 00:32:08 |
Plus, Freckledeck, it's a silencer. |
| 00:32:11 |
Well, I'm pretty fucking sure |
| 00:32:17 |
In this day and age, the type of society |
| 00:32:21 |
...every person of worth... |
| 00:32:22 |
...needs to have a gun at all times, |
| 00:32:26 |
And we're off. |
| 00:32:42 |
That sure is some silencer. |
| 00:32:43 |
Yes. What it did was augment |
| 00:32:49 |
But I almost have it. |
| 00:32:52 |
Oh, well, the good news is, |
| 00:32:55 |
...it'll be a silencer to us, |
| 00:33:13 |
What happened? |
| 00:33:18 |
How'd I get here? |
| 00:33:28 |
Okay, it's your move now. |
| 00:33:37 |
Anyone want some popcorn? |
| 00:33:39 |
- Yeah. |
| 00:33:52 |
Fuck! |
| 00:34:01 |
The pain... |
| 00:34:03 |
...so unexpected and undeserved... |
| 00:34:05 |
...had, for some reason, |
| 00:34:09 |
I realized I didn't hate the cabinet door. |
| 00:34:12 |
I hated my life, my house, my family... |
| 00:34:17 |
- Are you okay, Daddy? |
| 00:34:20 |
...my backyard... |
| 00:34:23 |
...my power mower. |
| 00:34:26 |
Nothing would ever change. |
| 00:34:29 |
Nothing new could ever be expected. |
| 00:34:33 |
It had to end, and it did. |
| 00:34:39 |
Now in the dark world where I dwell... |
| 00:34:42 |
...ugly things and surprising things |
| 00:34:48 |
...spill out at me constantly... |
| 00:34:52 |
...and I can count on nothing. |
| 00:35:10 |
Medfly, got it. |
| 00:35:12 |
- That would be a Thelma Kornford. |
| 00:35:15 |
If I had known it was harmless... |
| 00:35:17 |
...I would have killed it myself. |
| 00:35:20 |
Thanks for the mammaries. |
| 00:35:26 |
She had such beautiful... |
| 00:35:28 |
Daddy slowpoke. |
| 00:35:30 |
- Oh, get around him, will you? |
| 00:35:33 |
That's a big ten-four. |
| 00:35:35 |
Got nothing on us. |
| 00:35:37 |
- There we go. |
| 00:35:40 |
Okay, Bob, no rush. |
| 00:35:42 |
- Not so fast. |
| 00:35:43 |
Decelerate. |
| 00:35:46 |
Steady. |
| 00:35:48 |
- Decelerate. |
| 00:35:50 |
- Jesus. |
| 00:35:54 |
Come on. Decelerate! |
| 00:36:06 |
Let us over. |
| 00:36:08 |
It's an emergency. |
| 00:36:10 |
We're getting over. Emergency. |
| 00:36:18 |
- What the hell was that? |
| 00:36:20 |
What the hell in the hootenanny |
| 00:36:23 |
The return spring |
| 00:36:26 |
Look, the gas. |
| 00:36:27 |
Was it cut or broken? |
| 00:36:29 |
Let's give her a look. |
| 00:36:40 |
Oh, my... |
| 00:36:47 |
It's not the spring. It's the linkage |
| 00:36:51 |
It fell apart, so the gas pedal didn't push |
| 00:36:56 |
...but doesn't explain why... |
| 00:37:00 |
- When the linkage parts, it's... |
| 00:37:03 |
Shouldn't this ring |
| 00:37:06 |
I mean, how could it |
| 00:37:08 |
Let's have a look. Let's probe a little. |
| 00:37:11 |
All right. This screw has been turned |
| 00:37:15 |
So when the linkage parted, it went |
| 00:37:19 |
Wait. Now, how could that happen? |
| 00:37:22 |
There is no way that that screw... |
| 00:37:24 |
...could turn itself all the way out |
| 00:37:28 |
No way. |
| 00:37:31 |
Motherfucker! They did it deliberately! |
| 00:37:35 |
We almost died! |
| 00:37:39 |
To loosen the lock ring |
| 00:37:41 |
...that holds the linkage rods together... |
| 00:37:44 |
...a special tool would be needed. |
| 00:37:46 |
It'll take half an hour |
| 00:37:49 |
- I have the tools, though. |
| 00:37:53 |
Correct. We can always go to |
| 00:37:56 |
...or get a tow truck out here. |
| 00:38:08 |
Here. |
| 00:38:11 |
You know, maybe that's what's |
| 00:38:17 |
- We're gonna wind up like Freck soon. |
| 00:38:21 |
Okay, these are for us. |
| 00:38:24 |
And I'm going to suggest that you take |
| 00:38:28 |
...of the fact that Substance D |
| 00:38:31 |
...or a carb-idle adjustment. |
| 00:38:37 |
- Come on. |
| 00:38:38 |
...our great road trip to San Diego, Bob. |
| 00:38:41 |
I told you we should have gone |
| 00:38:44 |
What, like going to San Francisco... |
| 00:38:46 |
...would not have caused |
| 00:38:49 |
Yeah, because when you're going north, |
| 00:38:52 |
When you're going south, |
| 00:38:54 |
If we were in Australia. |
| 00:39:04 |
This proves you got somebody |
| 00:39:08 |
I just hope the house is still there |
| 00:39:10 |
Yeah, I didn't think of that. |
| 00:39:12 |
- I wouldn't worry about it too much. |
| 00:39:15 |
Christ, they may have broken in |
| 00:39:19 |
All Bob's got, anyhow. |
| 00:39:21 |
What if they stomped the animals? |
| 00:39:24 |
Don't worry about it. |
| 00:39:28 |
What? |
| 00:39:30 |
Yes, anyone entering the house while we |
| 00:39:34 |
Little something I perfected |
| 00:39:37 |
What kind of surprise? |
| 00:39:39 |
You should ask me before |
| 00:39:43 |
Why so uptight about |
| 00:39:46 |
Why would you care? |
| 00:39:47 |
I'm just saying, |
| 00:39:49 |
You can't start going around |
| 00:39:53 |
Okay, okay. I mean, jeez. |
| 00:39:56 |
...which translates to "be cool." |
| 00:39:59 |
So, what did you do? |
| 00:40:01 |
If the front door is opened |
| 00:40:04 |
...thumbnail-sized, auxiliary, |
| 00:40:08 |
...digital-memory cameras |
| 00:40:10 |
You should have told me. |
| 00:40:12 |
What if they come in through |
| 00:40:16 |
...like that infamous Beatles' song? |
| 00:40:18 |
To increase their chances of entering |
| 00:40:21 |
...rather than in other less usual places... |
| 00:40:24 |
...I., fortuitously, |
| 00:40:26 |
- Suppose they don't know it's unlocked. |
| 00:40:31 |
- You're kidding me. |
| 00:40:34 |
Yes. But no. But yes. |
| 00:40:37 |
Are you bullshitting us or not? |
| 00:40:39 |
I just simply never know with you. |
| 00:40:42 |
- Is he fucking with us, Bob? |
| 00:40:45 |
If there's a note on the door and it's |
| 00:40:49 |
They'd probably take the note down... |
| 00:40:51 |
...after ripping off |
| 00:40:54 |
...and locking the door behind them, |
| 00:40:56 |
We will never know. |
| 00:41:00 |
Of course I'm kidding. |
| 00:41:02 |
Leave the front door |
| 00:41:05 |
What'd you write |
| 00:41:06 |
I wrote, "Come on in, |
| 00:41:10 |
He did it. He really did it. |
| 00:41:12 |
This is the only way we'll know |
| 00:41:15 |
And is that not what is |
| 00:41:18 |
Okay, I'm still gray here. |
| 00:41:22 |
Is it really that suspenseful? |
| 00:41:24 |
- Did you? |
| 00:41:26 |
Doesn't matter. |
| 00:41:28 |
- Did you? |
| 00:42:16 |
Well, Barris, I can see you're right. |
| 00:42:19 |
This scrupulous covering-over of all |
| 00:42:24 |
...testifies to their thoroughness. |
| 00:42:28 |
You're an idiot. |
| 00:42:30 |
Oh, wait, wait. This... What's that? |
| 00:42:36 |
Come here, come here. |
| 00:42:39 |
A still-hot cigarette butt. It sure is. |
| 00:42:43 |
They lit a joint |
| 00:42:45 |
Fuck it. Barris is right, |
| 00:42:48 |
This roach is still hot, smell it. |
| 00:42:50 |
Yes. And that roach may not have |
| 00:42:54 |
This evidence may not be a slip-up. |
| 00:42:57 |
- So, what now? |
| 00:43:00 |
...to plant drugs in the house. |
| 00:43:02 |
Setting us up, |
| 00:43:05 |
It could be in the phone, |
| 00:43:07 |
We have to go through this house |
| 00:43:10 |
...before they phone us in, |
| 00:43:13 |
We might only have minutes. |
| 00:43:16 |
You check the wall sockets. |
| 00:43:18 |
Wait, hold on. |
| 00:43:21 |
...before the raid... |
| 00:43:22 |
If we're frantically trying to |
| 00:43:25 |
...we can't allege, though true, |
| 00:43:28 |
They're going to find us holding them, |
| 00:43:34 |
Shit, shit, shit. |
| 00:43:37 |
We can't do anything. |
| 00:43:43 |
- Fucked, man! |
| 00:43:44 |
...what about the super-secret |
| 00:43:47 |
- The what? |
| 00:43:50 |
Oh, yes, of course. Right, of course. |
| 00:43:54 |
This should be extremely informational |
| 00:43:57 |
I believe this will tell us a great deal. |
| 00:44:06 |
Although it probably wouldn't have |
| 00:44:12 |
Let me guess: didn't record. |
| 00:44:16 |
Allow me to suggest that it's highly |
| 00:44:21 |
...thus affording them ample time and |
| 00:44:27 |
...to diffuse and otherwise erase |
| 00:44:31 |
But we have no other recourse, |
| 00:44:34 |
There is, of course, one thing you could |
| 00:44:41 |
Sell the house and move out? |
| 00:44:45 |
But hell, this is our home. |
| 00:44:48 |
You could make a profit. |
| 00:44:50 |
On the other hand, you might have to |
| 00:44:54 |
I know a good realtor. |
| 00:44:56 |
What reason should I give for selling? |
| 00:44:59 |
Can't tell the truth. |
| 00:45:01 |
Why can't we tell the truth? |
| 00:45:03 |
We put an ad in the L.A. Times. |
| 00:45:06 |
Modern, three-bedroom tract house... |
| 00:45:08 |
...with two bathrooms |
| 00:45:11 |
...high-grade drugs stashed throughout |
| 00:45:15 |
It could actually increase the value. |
| 00:45:18 |
But they might call and ask |
| 00:45:21 |
...and we don't know, |
| 00:45:23 |
Prospective buyers might inquire |
| 00:45:26 |
And we don't know at this point. |
| 00:45:27 |
It could be ounces of weed or pounds of |
| 00:45:32 |
Hey, you guys. |
| 00:45:34 |
Fuck! Jesus. |
| 00:45:38 |
What the fuck is wrong with you? |
| 00:45:42 |
I came in, like the note said. |
| 00:45:45 |
It didn't say when |
| 00:45:49 |
I just sat around for a while |
| 00:45:54 |
- Love your sweater. |
| 00:45:57 |
Man, you guys were |
| 00:46:00 |
- Sorry. |
| 00:46:04 |
Did you smoke a joint |
| 00:46:08 |
Yeah. |
| 00:46:10 |
Otherwise, I can't ever sleep. |
| 00:46:14 |
You know, |
| 00:46:17 |
...maybe locking the doors |
| 00:46:20 |
Otherwise you could get ripped off |
| 00:46:24 |
This is all your fault. |
| 00:46:26 |
Did I hear you say |
| 00:46:30 |
Or was that, you know, me dreaming? |
| 00:46:34 |
Because what I heard sounded weird. |
| 00:46:37 |
Yeah, we're all dreaming. |
| 00:46:39 |
Quiet. Steady. Steady. |
| 00:46:41 |
Kidney. Kidney. Kidney. |
| 00:46:44 |
So the information from the holo |
| 00:46:48 |
...are transmitted back here, |
| 00:46:53 |
This'll be your new |
| 00:46:57 |
It's pretty intuitive. |
| 00:47:00 |
You'll just be watching and |
| 00:47:05 |
You can go live, of course, but that |
| 00:47:10 |
And then, you see |
| 00:47:13 |
What would be great is if they ever |
| 00:47:18 |
...you could do that yourself |
| 00:47:20 |
But wouldn't you then see me |
| 00:47:24 |
No. For that, you just edit yourself out. |
| 00:47:26 |
But be sure to include yourself |
| 00:47:30 |
...because if you systematically |
| 00:47:32 |
...we can deduce who you are through |
| 00:47:36 |
...whether we want to or not. |
| 00:47:39 |
I'm not sure I exactly... |
| 00:47:41 |
We take it for granted that you are |
| 00:47:44 |
...that are in Arctor's circle |
| 00:47:47 |
...that frequent the house. |
| 00:00:05 |
...Charles Freck... |
| 00:00:08 |
...even Arctor himself. |
| 00:00:10 |
Hell, you could be Donna, |
| 00:00:12 |
As my superior, |
| 00:00:16 |
How the hell would I know? |
| 00:00:17 |
I'm just a little guy behind a big desk. |
| 00:00:20 |
You'd have to go way up the food chain |
| 00:00:24 |
You know, instead of me |
| 00:00:27 |
...send someone to the house |
| 00:00:30 |
...and have him say, "Good morning. |
| 00:00:32 |
I'm here to service |
| 00:00:35 |
...covertly installed on your premises." |
| 00:00:39 |
Maybe that sucker Arctor |
| 00:00:43 |
Actually, I think Arctor would probably |
| 00:00:49 |
If it's proven that Arctor is, |
| 00:00:52 |
Believe me, Arctor is hiding a great deal. |
| 00:00:56 |
We've got more recent |
| 00:00:58 |
...and there's no doubt about it, |
| 00:01:03 |
A three-dollar bill. The guy is a phony. |
| 00:01:07 |
So keep on him until he drops... |
| 00:01:08 |
...until we have enough to arrest him |
| 00:01:12 |
You think he's high up in the, |
| 00:01:17 |
What we think is of |
| 00:01:20 |
You report your limited conclusions, |
| 00:01:24 |
- You got it? |
| 00:01:27 |
I got it. |
| 00:01:31 |
I'd say Arctor is doomed |
| 00:01:36 |
And I have a hunch, |
| 00:01:44 |
The idling jets could be replaced with |
| 00:01:48 |
And with a tach, he could just watch |
| 00:01:52 |
Usually just backing off |
| 00:01:54 |
...causes it to upshift |
| 00:01:57 |
What are you grease monkeys up to? |
| 00:02:00 |
Bob's got a bent choke shaft. |
| 00:02:02 |
- How much does this Impala weigh? |
| 00:02:05 |
Thousand pounds traveling at |
| 00:02:08 |
That's 1000 pounds with passengers |
| 00:02:12 |
- For a fact? Okay. |
| 00:02:14 |
- Twelve. |
| 00:02:17 |
No, that's 11 in the back |
| 00:02:20 |
Extra weight on the rear wheels |
| 00:02:23 |
We talking about |
| 00:02:25 |
- Kids' soccer team. |
| 00:02:29 |
- Metal cleats for safety. |
| 00:02:32 |
You are just heckle tweak, |
| 00:02:36 |
- What kind of bug? |
| 00:02:39 |
- Hey, come on. Cool it, you guys. |
| 00:02:41 |
Step back. Freck-and-frack, |
| 00:02:46 |
- What is this? |
| 00:02:47 |
- I'm desperately afraid. |
| 00:02:50 |
...up into your nostrils |
| 00:02:53 |
All right. |
| 00:02:56 |
You are constitutionally incapable |
| 00:02:59 |
- Bring it! |
| 00:03:01 |
No, no, proctology boy, |
| 00:03:03 |
Shut it. Hey. Hey. |
| 00:03:05 |
I have the perfect tool for this job. |
| 00:03:13 |
- I was only kidding him. |
| 00:03:16 |
Fuck! |
| 00:03:18 |
What if he goes in there |
| 00:03:21 |
I'm leaving. |
| 00:03:25 |
No, hey, hey, Freck. No, come on. |
| 00:03:32 |
What's the hammer for, Barris? |
| 00:03:35 |
No, I just saw it inside and thought I, |
| 00:03:42 |
- Same with this. |
| 00:03:44 |
Yeah, what do you want? |
| 00:03:46 |
- Come on, hammerhead. |
| 00:03:48 |
- Make a move. |
| 00:03:49 |
Okay. If you guys are gonna |
| 00:03:53 |
- It's getting very fucked up over here. |
| 00:03:56 |
The most dangerous kind of person is |
| 00:04:00 |
- What is that supposed to mean? |
| 00:04:02 |
It means that if you take |
| 00:04:05 |
...you not only start seeing |
| 00:04:07 |
...but you start talking like... and |
| 00:04:10 |
What'd you say, Barris? |
| 00:04:14 |
See, you guys are fucked up. |
| 00:04:16 |
No, no, it is y-uck-uck-ou |
| 00:04:19 |
Hey, go Freck yourself. |
| 00:04:21 |
Don't take the car, you'll kill yourself. |
| 00:04:32 |
So this guy's been going around claiming |
| 00:04:38 |
Says he's posed, at one time or another, |
| 00:04:42 |
...as a theoretical, |
| 00:04:45 |
...particle-research physicist |
| 00:04:49 |
...as a Finnish novelist |
| 00:04:53 |
...as a deposed Argentinean president... |
| 00:04:55 |
...who was married to a go-go dancer |
| 00:04:58 |
He got away with all that? |
| 00:05:01 |
- He never got caught? |
| 00:05:03 |
...so now I guess I'll just have |
| 00:05:06 |
That's just it. |
| 00:05:09 |
He just posed as |
| 00:05:13 |
It came out later in the L.A. Times. |
| 00:05:15 |
They checked up, and he was pushing |
| 00:05:19 |
He saw that old DiCaprio movie. |
| 00:05:21 |
You know, the one where |
| 00:05:24 |
...before Leonardo hit his Elvis stage. |
| 00:05:27 |
And his first thought was: |
| 00:05:28 |
"Hey, I could pose as all those |
| 00:05:32 |
But then, his next thought was, |
| 00:05:34 |
I could just pose as an impostor, |
| 00:05:39 |
They say that he made more money |
| 00:05:43 |
...although I'm not sure |
| 00:05:49 |
Well, you know, |
| 00:05:51 |
...but not posing |
| 00:05:55 |
Oh, as a narc, you mean. |
| 00:05:57 |
What's a narc look like? |
| 00:05:59 |
That's like asking, |
| 00:06:02 |
I talked to this dealer |
| 00:06:04 |
I asked him what the narc |
| 00:06:07 |
What did he say, he looked just like us? |
| 00:06:11 |
More so. |
| 00:06:13 |
So I guess the moral of that is... |
| 00:06:16 |
...stay away from guys |
| 00:06:23 |
Well, there are female narcs. |
| 00:06:25 |
Oh, hey, I'd like to meet one of those. |
| 00:06:27 |
No, I don't mean a female. I mean |
| 00:06:31 |
Sure. So you could positively know. |
| 00:06:35 |
When he slaps the cuffs on, you'll know |
| 00:06:38 |
How could a guy do that? |
| 00:06:40 |
Pose as a narc? |
| 00:06:43 |
- What? |
| 00:06:45 |
Pose as a narc? |
| 00:06:47 |
- No, you said it. So yeah. |
| 00:06:51 |
Oh, sh... Shit, I'm spaced. |
| 00:06:55 |
Pose as a narc, wow. |
| 00:06:58 |
Pose as a narc. |
| 00:07:02 |
My brains are scrambled today. |
| 00:08:27 |
Christ, Barris, what the fuck? |
| 00:08:46 |
Yes, hi. How are you? |
| 00:08:48 |
I have something |
| 00:08:52 |
I don't know if I should be summoning |
| 00:08:55 |
...or the resuscitation squad. |
| 00:08:58 |
Yes, ma'am? |
| 00:08:59 |
I don't know. I don't want to say |
| 00:09:02 |
...but it's either that or an involuntary |
| 00:09:07 |
The address, yes. |
| 00:09:10 |
...although I've never sent myself |
| 00:09:13 |
Seven... Seven... Seven-zero-niner. |
| 00:09:17 |
- Come on. |
| 00:09:21 |
Does that technically qualify as a street? |
| 00:09:23 |
I'm pleased to report we won't |
| 00:09:27 |
Thank you. Have a nice day. |
| 00:09:29 |
There you go. Took care of itself. |
| 00:09:34 |
- Okay. |
| 00:09:35 |
You all right? There you go. |
| 00:09:38 |
I must've passed out. |
| 00:09:39 |
- Yeah. |
| 00:09:44 |
- Must have almost died. |
| 00:09:46 |
Shit. |
| 00:09:49 |
And what were you doing while |
| 00:09:53 |
...to the bright light? Jacking off? |
| 00:09:55 |
No, no, no. You saw me. |
| 00:09:58 |
I summoned the paramedics. |
| 00:09:59 |
- I sprung into action without delay. |
| 00:10:03 |
I was wrapping my pipe. |
| 00:10:05 |
You the only person in the universe who |
| 00:10:09 |
All right, |
| 00:10:11 |
...since you seem to be proceeding |
| 00:10:16 |
...perpetually caught |
| 00:10:19 |
Your life and watching you live it... |
| 00:10:21 |
...is like a gag reel |
| 00:10:24 |
I swear to God that a toddler |
| 00:10:29 |
...of the intricacies of |
| 00:10:31 |
...don't kill yourself on your TV dinner. |
| 00:10:34 |
And yet, you've managed to |
| 00:10:37 |
...into a moral referendum on me. |
| 00:10:39 |
- You are a monster! |
| 00:10:42 |
- You are a billy goat. |
| 00:10:50 |
Charles Freck, becoming progressively |
| 00:10:53 |
...by what was happening around him, |
| 00:10:57 |
There was no problem |
| 00:11:00 |
...in putting an end to yourself. |
| 00:11:01 |
You just bought a large quantity |
| 00:11:04 |
...and took them with cheap wine. |
| 00:11:06 |
The planning part had to do |
| 00:11:08 |
...he wanted found on him |
| 00:11:12 |
He had spent several days deciding... |
| 00:11:14 |
...much longer than he had spent |
| 00:11:17 |
He would be found lying on his back |
| 00:11:20 |
...with a copy of Ayn Rand's |
| 00:11:23 |
...and an unfinished letter to Exxon... |
| 00:11:25 |
...protesting the cancellation |
| 00:11:28 |
That way, he would indict the system |
| 00:11:32 |
...over and above |
| 00:11:35 |
At the last moment, he changed his mind |
| 00:11:38 |
...and decided to drink the pills |
| 00:11:41 |
...instead of Ripple or Thunderbird. |
| 00:11:43 |
So he set off on one last drive, |
| 00:11:47 |
...which specialized in fine wines... |
| 00:11:49 |
...and bought a bottle |
| 00:11:52 |
...which set him back almost $70. |
| 00:11:57 |
Back home again, he uncorked the wine, |
| 00:12:01 |
...and tried to think |
| 00:12:04 |
And then, with a glass of merlot, |
| 00:12:10 |
However, he had been burned. |
| 00:12:12 |
Instead of quietly suffocating, |
| 00:12:18 |
The next thing he knew, |
| 00:12:21 |
...was standing beside his bed, |
| 00:12:26 |
You're gonna read me my sins? |
| 00:12:32 |
It's gonna take 100,000 hours? |
| 00:12:34 |
Your sins will be read to you ceaselessly, |
| 00:12:40 |
The list will never end. |
| 00:12:45 |
"The Sins of Freck." |
| 00:12:47 |
Charles Freck wished he could take back |
| 00:12:51 |
"Age 6, in the first grade: |
| 00:12:54 |
3:08 p.m. Theft. |
| 00:12:56 |
You did knowingly and with malice |
| 00:13:00 |
Kicking the dog. |
| 00:13:01 |
December: theft of Christmas presents. |
| 00:13:04 |
One million lies. Destruction of..." |
| 00:13:06 |
One thousand years later, |
| 00:13:09 |
...the year he had discovered |
| 00:13:11 |
"November 14th: Percodan. |
| 00:13:15 |
Vicodin. Cocaine." |
| 00:13:17 |
Charles Freck thought, |
| 00:13:22 |
Where did Substance D come from? |
| 00:13:24 |
Why can't we stop it? |
| 00:13:25 |
The bigger this war gets, |
| 00:13:29 |
...the more Substance D |
| 00:13:31 |
Can't you figure this out? |
| 00:13:33 |
Look around you. |
| 00:13:36 |
Humanity wasn't meant to live like this. |
| 00:13:39 |
Our every waking moment |
| 00:13:43 |
It's time to stop |
| 00:13:45 |
It's time to realize |
| 00:13:48 |
It's our tax dollars at work. |
| 00:13:51 |
Hey, guys, I used to be one of you. |
| 00:13:53 |
Stop selling out your own species. |
| 00:14:05 |
Hey. Get in. |
| 00:14:10 |
You scared me. |
| 00:14:11 |
Got something for you. |
| 00:14:15 |
I'm seeing some crazy shit tonight. |
| 00:14:20 |
What do you mean? |
| 00:14:21 |
That fucking Barris. |
| 00:14:23 |
You know how he works? |
| 00:14:26 |
He doesn't kill anybody... |
| 00:14:27 |
...but he hangs around until |
| 00:14:32 |
And then he just sits there. |
| 00:14:36 |
And he sort of sets them up |
| 00:14:41 |
But I'm not sure how. |
| 00:14:45 |
Hey, do you have that money |
| 00:14:49 |
- Yeah. I have it. |
| 00:14:53 |
You know, I don't like Barris. |
| 00:14:56 |
And I don't trust him. |
| 00:14:57 |
Guy's fucking crazy. |
| 00:14:59 |
And when you're around him, |
| 00:15:02 |
And then when you're not around him, |
| 00:15:05 |
You're acting crazy now. |
| 00:15:08 |
- I am? |
| 00:15:13 |
Hey, will you take me to a concert |
| 00:15:18 |
Sure. |
| 00:15:19 |
- Yeah? |
| 00:15:22 |
Yeah. Which night? |
| 00:15:25 |
It's Sunday afternoon. |
| 00:15:30 |
Whatever you want. |
| 00:15:33 |
Well, I'll just drive over to my place. |
| 00:15:37 |
You have the money, |
| 00:15:39 |
We'll kick back, drop some Death... |
| 00:15:42 |
...maybe get some tequila. |
| 00:15:46 |
All right. |
| 00:15:51 |
All right. |
| 00:15:57 |
Hey, Donna, do you like cats? |
| 00:16:01 |
Drippy little things. |
| 00:16:03 |
Moving along |
| 00:16:08 |
Above? |
| 00:16:11 |
You mean, on the ground? |
| 00:16:13 |
Just dripping... |
| 00:16:16 |
...behind furniture. |
| 00:16:18 |
Little spring flowers with blue in them |
| 00:16:24 |
Yeah. |
| 00:16:26 |
- Before the... |
| 00:16:28 |
...and they're all gone. |
| 00:16:32 |
It's like you know me. |
| 00:16:35 |
You can read me. |
| 00:16:40 |
Can I put my arms around you? |
| 00:16:47 |
- I wanna hug you, okay? |
| 00:16:50 |
- What? |
| 00:16:53 |
I just have to be really careful |
| 00:16:56 |
So just leave my body alone, okay? |
| 00:17:00 |
Okay. |
| 00:17:03 |
Sure. |
| 00:17:05 |
Yeah. |
| 00:17:09 |
You know, fuck it. |
| 00:17:13 |
Hey, I... I'm sorry. |
| 00:17:15 |
I just don't like it |
| 00:17:17 |
...and I have to watch out for that |
| 00:17:21 |
That's fucking lame. I gotta go. |
| 00:17:23 |
Your car's not fixed. |
| 00:17:26 |
I drove you here, I'll drive you back. |
| 00:17:30 |
Bob. |
| 00:17:34 |
Bob. |
| 00:17:37 |
Bob, wait. |
| 00:17:40 |
Please. |
| 00:17:42 |
Please wait. |
| 00:17:43 |
I didn't mean... I'm sorry, |
| 00:17:47 |
I'm just... I'm so out of it right now. |
| 00:17:50 |
I... Sometimes after I've worked |
| 00:17:54 |
Please, come back. |
| 00:17:55 |
Come on. With the tequila. |
| 00:17:58 |
How much do you do? |
| 00:18:04 |
Not that much. |
| 00:18:07 |
I never have and I never will. I... |
| 00:18:10 |
Once you start shooting, |
| 00:18:14 |
And even tap water. |
| 00:18:15 |
You get a habit. |
| 00:18:17 |
You have a habit. |
| 00:18:21 |
We all do. |
| 00:18:23 |
I mean, so what? What's the difference? |
| 00:18:26 |
I'm happy. |
| 00:18:28 |
- Aren't you happy? |
| 00:18:32 |
I think it's starting to get bad. |
| 00:18:41 |
You know what |
| 00:18:45 |
I wanna move north, live on a farm... |
| 00:18:48 |
...near the mountains, in a cabin. |
| 00:18:53 |
Can I go with you? |
| 00:18:56 |
I hope so. |
| 00:19:00 |
I hope so. |
| 00:19:20 |
All right. You weren't kidding. |
| 00:19:43 |
Do you have a toothbrush? |
| 00:19:45 |
What? |
| 00:19:47 |
Well, screw it. Screw it. |
| 00:19:49 |
Teeth are teeth. |
| 00:19:51 |
I'll... I'll brush them. |
| 00:19:58 |
Know where the bathroom is? |
| 00:20:01 |
What bathroom? |
| 00:20:06 |
In the house. |
| 00:20:10 |
Who are those guys out there? |
| 00:20:12 |
Rolling joints and rattling on and on? |
| 00:20:16 |
They live here with you? |
| 00:20:17 |
Two of them do. |
| 00:20:21 |
So you're gay? |
| 00:20:24 |
Try not to be. |
| 00:20:27 |
So you're putting up |
| 00:20:31 |
You better believe it. |
| 00:20:35 |
Guess I'm about to find out. |
| 00:20:36 |
If you're a latent gay, then |
| 00:20:41 |
You want me to undress you? |
| 00:20:44 |
Sure. |
| 00:21:38 |
Oh, Jesus, fuck. |
| 00:21:59 |
Hello? |
| 00:22:00 |
Fred, we've processed |
| 00:22:04 |
How are you feeling? |
| 00:22:07 |
Okay. |
| 00:22:09 |
Any problems? |
| 00:22:11 |
Well, I had a fight with my girl. |
| 00:22:13 |
Any confusion? |
| 00:22:15 |
Are you experiencing any difficulty |
| 00:22:20 |
Any language disorientation? |
| 00:22:23 |
No. |
| 00:22:24 |
Can you come back over to room 203? |
| 00:22:27 |
What did you find to be a problem? |
| 00:22:30 |
We'll take that up when you get here. |
| 00:23:38 |
Connie. |
| 00:23:41 |
Donna. |
| 00:24:11 |
All right, Fred. Very good. |
| 00:24:14 |
And this next test, |
| 00:24:18 |
...reach out and feel an object |
| 00:24:22 |
You are to tell us if the object |
| 00:24:25 |
...is identical to the object |
| 00:24:53 |
One more thing, Fred. |
| 00:24:55 |
We need an updated blood test. |
| 00:24:57 |
So go down the hall to the |
| 00:25:00 |
And by the time you get back, we should |
| 00:25:04 |
I'll be upstairs with Hank. |
| 00:25:06 |
You certainly seem |
| 00:25:08 |
...than you did when we first saw you. |
| 00:25:14 |
Pardon? |
| 00:25:15 |
Last week, when we first saw you, |
| 00:25:19 |
Did you ever get her the flowers? |
| 00:25:29 |
Crazy job they gave me. |
| 00:25:32 |
But if I wasn't doing it, |
| 00:25:35 |
And they might get it wrong. |
| 00:25:37 |
They might set Arctor up, |
| 00:25:42 |
Better it be me, |
| 00:25:46 |
Just protecting everyone from Barris |
| 00:25:53 |
What the hell am I talking about? |
| 00:25:55 |
I must be nuts. |
| 00:25:57 |
I know Bob Arctor. He's a good person. |
| 00:26:01 |
He's up to nothing. |
| 00:26:08 |
In fact, he works for the Orange County |
| 00:26:12 |
...which is probably why |
| 00:26:16 |
But that wouldn't explain... |
| 00:26:18 |
...why the Orange County |
| 00:26:23 |
Something big is definitely |
| 00:26:27 |
This rundown, rubble-filled house... |
| 00:26:32 |
...with its weed-patch yard... |
| 00:26:34 |
...and cat box that never gets emptied. |
| 00:26:36 |
What a waste of a truly good house. |
| 00:26:40 |
So much could be done with it. |
| 00:26:43 |
A family and children could live here. |
| 00:26:46 |
It was designed for that. |
| 00:26:48 |
Such a waste. |
| 00:26:50 |
They ought to confiscate it |
| 00:27:07 |
I'm supposed to act like they aren't here. |
| 00:27:10 |
Assuming there's a "they" at all. |
| 00:27:14 |
It may just be my imagination. |
| 00:27:17 |
Whatever it is that's watching... |
| 00:27:20 |
...it's not human... |
| 00:27:22 |
...unlike little dark-eyed Donna. |
| 00:27:25 |
It doesn't ever blink. |
| 00:27:29 |
What does a scanner see? |
| 00:27:32 |
Into the head? |
| 00:27:34 |
Down into the heart? |
| 00:27:37 |
Does it see into me, into us? |
| 00:27:41 |
Clearly or darkly? |
| 00:27:44 |
I hope it sees clearly, because |
| 00:27:49 |
I see only murk. |
| 00:27:52 |
I hope for everyone's sake |
| 00:27:56 |
Because if the scanner sees only darkly, |
| 00:28:00 |
...then I'm cursed and cursed again. |
| 00:28:05 |
And we'll only wind up dead this way... |
| 00:28:08 |
...knowing very little and getting |
| 00:28:19 |
You show what we regard... |
| 00:28:21 |
...more as competition phenomenon |
| 00:28:26 |
Yeah? |
| 00:28:28 |
Competition between the left and |
| 00:28:32 |
It's like you have two signals |
| 00:28:35 |
...by carrying conflicting information. |
| 00:28:37 |
It's as if you have two fuel gauges |
| 00:28:40 |
They're studying |
| 00:28:42 |
...but one says your tank is full, |
| 00:28:46 |
They can't both be right. |
| 00:28:47 |
And you as the driver have only |
| 00:28:51 |
...via the gauges. |
| 00:28:54 |
So, what does all this mean? |
| 00:28:56 |
Well, I'm sure you know already. |
| 00:28:59 |
You've been experiencing it |
| 00:29:03 |
Two hemispheres of my brain... |
| 00:29:07 |
...are competing? |
| 00:29:09 |
- Yes. |
| 00:29:12 |
But why? |
| 00:29:16 |
Substance D. |
| 00:29:17 |
It often causes that, functionally, |
| 00:29:21 |
Damage has taken place to the |
| 00:29:25 |
...and the right hemisphere |
| 00:29:27 |
Crosscutting, we call it... |
| 00:29:29 |
...related to split-brain phenomenon. |
| 00:29:31 |
We could perform |
| 00:29:36 |
...but I'd... |
| 00:29:37 |
Will this ever go away? |
| 00:29:41 |
Probably. It's a functional impairment. |
| 00:29:43 |
It may be organic damage. |
| 00:29:46 |
It may be permanent. |
| 00:29:48 |
Time will tell, and only after you've |
| 00:29:54 |
I'll never take Substance D again |
| 00:29:59 |
How much are you taking now? |
| 00:30:02 |
Not much. |
| 00:30:04 |
More, recently, because of job stress. |
| 00:30:15 |
Death is swallowed up in victory. |
| 00:30:18 |
Behold, I tell you the sacred secret now: |
| 00:30:22 |
You shall not all sleep in death. |
| 00:30:29 |
We'll do the other half |
| 00:30:33 |
The Air Force arsenal at Vandenberg |
| 00:30:36 |
What about that anthrax |
| 00:30:39 |
When do we...? Aren't we supposed to |
| 00:30:43 |
We need the weapons first. |
| 00:30:45 |
Drugs in the water supply is step B. |
| 00:30:47 |
Okay, but I gotta go. I got a customer. |
| 00:30:50 |
I can also identify |
| 00:30:53 |
It's indicated throughout the course |
| 00:30:56 |
Do you have any more material of this |
| 00:31:00 |
No, I have a veritable cornucopia... |
| 00:31:01 |
...and much of it is directly referencing |
| 00:31:05 |
Who are these people? |
| 00:31:08 |
It is primarily Arctor and Hawthorne. |
| 00:31:11 |
I have coded notes here, which may be |
| 00:31:15 |
I... My own cryptology |
| 00:31:20 |
As of now I'm impounding all of this. |
| 00:31:23 |
It is our property temporarily, |
| 00:31:26 |
You will be on hand |
| 00:31:31 |
...if and when we get to the point where |
| 00:31:35 |
Mr. Barris, you will not be released |
| 00:31:41 |
You will be charged, as a formality, |
| 00:31:45 |
...with knowingly giving the authorities |
| 00:31:48 |
This, of course, is just a pretext |
| 00:31:54 |
I always wanted to go |
| 00:31:56 |
- Is that satisfactory, Mr. Barris? |
| 00:31:59 |
Though I wonder, |
| 00:32:01 |
...may I be provided with some lotion, |
| 00:32:11 |
So, what do you think |
| 00:32:18 |
Seems like what he played... |
| 00:32:22 |
- sounded pretty genuine to me. |
| 00:32:25 |
It's fake. Worthless. |
| 00:32:29 |
Made on a home computer. |
| 00:32:31 |
Maybe you're right. |
| 00:32:35 |
Is that my medical report |
| 00:32:38 |
Yep. |
| 00:32:40 |
What does it say? |
| 00:32:43 |
That you're completely bonkers. |
| 00:32:48 |
Completely? |
| 00:32:50 |
There's maybe two brain cells |
| 00:32:54 |
Rest is just... |
| 00:32:56 |
...short circuits and sparks. |
| 00:32:59 |
Two? |
| 00:33:04 |
Listen, when you go to pick up |
| 00:33:08 |
...there will be a substantial difference |
| 00:33:12 |
I get some sort of bonus for this...? |
| 00:33:15 |
For this having happened to me on duty? |
| 00:33:20 |
No. Read your penal code. |
| 00:33:24 |
"An officer who willingly becomes an |
| 00:33:28 |
...is subject to a misdemeanor charge... |
| 00:33:31 |
...a fine, and/or six months." |
| 00:33:34 |
You'll probably just be fined. |
| 00:33:37 |
Willingly? |
| 00:33:40 |
No one held a gun to your head |
| 00:33:43 |
No one dropped something in your soup. |
| 00:33:45 |
You knowingly and willingly |
| 00:33:48 |
...brain-destructive and disorienting. |
| 00:33:51 |
I had to. |
| 00:33:53 |
You could have pretended to. |
| 00:33:56 |
Most officers manage to cope with it. |
| 00:34:00 |
And from the quantities |
| 00:34:05 |
My God, Fred, I... |
| 00:34:09 |
Hey, you know what I would do |
| 00:34:13 |
Once you get out of New Path and, |
| 00:34:16 |
But it may never be over. |
| 00:34:20 |
Cigarette? |
| 00:34:23 |
I'm getting off that too. Everything. |
| 00:34:27 |
Including chocolate. Yeah. |
| 00:34:30 |
And... |
| 00:34:32 |
Like I tell my kids... |
| 00:34:36 |
I've got two kids. Two girls. |
| 00:34:40 |
Little ones. |
| 00:34:44 |
I don't believe you do. |
| 00:34:48 |
You're not supposed to. |
| 00:34:52 |
Maybe not. |
| 00:35:14 |
Listen, is there anywhere specific |
| 00:35:19 |
Maybe over to |
| 00:35:22 |
From the information you brought in, |
| 00:35:29 |
Yes, we are. |
| 00:35:32 |
How'd you know that? |
| 00:35:34 |
Process of elimination. |
| 00:35:38 |
I know who you aren't... |
| 00:35:40 |
...and we're talking about |
| 00:35:43 |
...that we hoped would lead us higher. |
| 00:35:45 |
And maybe Barris will. |
| 00:35:47 |
I pieced it together a long time ago |
| 00:35:55 |
I'm who? |
| 00:36:00 |
I'm Bob Arctor? |
| 00:36:05 |
Yeah, get me |
| 00:36:08 |
...or just patch me through |
| 00:36:11 |
Thanks. |
| 00:36:13 |
Bud, you are in a very bad way, |
| 00:36:17 |
Maybe Jim Barris poisoned you. |
| 00:36:19 |
We're really interested in Barris, |
| 00:36:22 |
The whole scanning of the house |
| 00:36:25 |
We hoped to draw him here, and we did. |
| 00:36:31 |
He is deep into it |
| 00:36:37 |
Then I'm a what? |
| 00:36:41 |
Well, we had to get to Barris |
| 00:36:44 |
So how we arranged it was... |
| 00:36:46 |
...he grew progressively |
| 00:36:49 |
...that you were an undercover cop... |
| 00:36:51 |
...trying to nail him |
| 00:36:54 |
So he did what you or anyone |
| 00:36:57 |
Hey, Donna. |
| 00:36:59 |
Yeah, hi, this is a buddy of Bob's. |
| 00:37:04 |
Yeah. |
| 00:37:05 |
Listen, he's in a... He's in a bad way. |
| 00:37:11 |
Yeah, way bad. |
| 00:37:13 |
I was wondering if I could |
| 00:37:18 |
You're a sweetheart. |
| 00:37:20 |
Yeah, I'm sure he'll |
| 00:37:24 |
Great, thanks. Good news. |
| 00:37:27 |
Donna Hawthorne said she'd pick you up |
| 00:37:33 |
You fuckers. |
| 00:38:36 |
You're a good man, Bob. |
| 00:38:39 |
You've been dealt a bad deal. |
| 00:38:42 |
This is not fair, but it has to be this way. |
| 00:38:46 |
You just... |
| 00:38:47 |
You gotta... You gotta just wait it out, |
| 00:38:51 |
And someday... |
| 00:38:54 |
...a long time from now... |
| 00:38:57 |
...you'll see the way you saw before. |
| 00:39:00 |
There'll be a recognition... |
| 00:39:03 |
...and some spark in a disguised form... |
| 00:39:09 |
...will reveal itself to you... |
| 00:39:12 |
...and guide you. |
| 00:39:39 |
- Substance D? |
| 00:39:42 |
Ate his head. |
| 00:39:44 |
Another loser. |
| 00:39:47 |
It's easy to win. |
| 00:39:51 |
Anybody can win. |
| 00:40:01 |
Goodbye. |
| 00:40:11 |
Living and unliving things |
| 00:40:16 |
The drive of unliving things is stronger |
| 00:40:24 |
The living should never be used |
| 00:40:31 |
But the dead should, if possible... |
| 00:40:35 |
...serve the purposes of the living. |
| 00:40:55 |
Hey, good news. |
| 00:40:56 |
I think I got you transferred |
| 00:40:59 |
- Can I work with animals? |
| 00:41:02 |
...for a while. In the open, |
| 00:41:05 |
- I wanna be with something living. |
| 00:41:08 |
The earth is still alive. |
| 00:41:11 |
Do you have |
| 00:41:13 |
I worked in an office. |
| 00:41:16 |
Well, you'll be outside from now on. |
| 00:41:42 |
Your name is Bruce. |
| 00:41:44 |
My name is Bruce. |
| 00:41:47 |
We're gonna try you on farming |
| 00:41:51 |
- Okay. |
| 00:41:55 |
I think you'll like it here. |
| 00:41:57 |
I think I'll like it here. |
| 00:42:01 |
Come on, I'll show you |
| 00:42:05 |
You like mountains, Bruce? |
| 00:42:07 |
Look up. |
| 00:42:08 |
Mountains. |
| 00:42:10 |
No snow, but mountains. |
| 00:42:13 |
I like mountains. |
| 00:42:15 |
The air is good here. |
| 00:42:18 |
I like air. |
| 00:42:21 |
Yeah. |
| 00:42:22 |
We all like air, Bruce. We really do. |
| 00:42:26 |
That we have in common. |
| 00:42:31 |
4G. |
| 00:42:33 |
Yours is 4G. Can you remember that? |
| 00:42:35 |
4G. |
| 00:42:39 |
Will I be seeing my friends? |
| 00:42:41 |
What, you mean |
| 00:42:44 |
The Santa Ana facility? |
| 00:42:47 |
Mike and Laura... |
| 00:42:48 |
...and Mike and Eddie. And... |
| 00:42:52 |
The people from |
| 00:42:55 |
...they don't come out |
| 00:42:57 |
- See, these are closed operations. |
| 00:43:01 |
But, you know, |
| 00:43:04 |
...couple times a year. |
| 00:43:06 |
You know, |
| 00:43:09 |
...and the next one is Thanksgiving. |
| 00:43:10 |
Thanksgiving. |
| 00:43:12 |
So you might see them in three months. |
| 00:43:29 |
Hey, Audrey. |
| 00:43:31 |
Glad you could meet. |
| 00:43:34 |
So tell me, are they |
| 00:43:37 |
No, not at all. The guy's so burnt-out. |
| 00:43:41 |
And we're still convinced |
| 00:43:44 |
They have to be. Who else? |
| 00:43:48 |
I just wonder |
| 00:43:52 |
It matters, Audrey. |
| 00:43:55 |
It matters when we can prove |
| 00:43:58 |
...manufacturing and distributing. |
| 00:44:02 |
How does he look? |
| 00:44:04 |
I mean, do you think he's gonna |
| 00:44:08 |
All we can do is hope |
| 00:44:11 |
...a few charred brain cells will flicker on |
| 00:44:16 |
It's just... |
| 00:44:18 |
- It's just such a cost to pay. |
| 00:44:22 |
But there's no other way to get in there. |
| 00:44:24 |
I couldn't, and think how long I tried. |
| 00:44:27 |
They got that place locked up tight. |
| 00:44:29 |
They're only gonna let a burnt-out husk |
| 00:44:33 |
Harmless. You have to be, |
| 00:44:36 |
Yeah, but to sacrifice someone... |
| 00:44:39 |
...a living person, |
| 00:44:43 |
I mean, if he'd understood, |
| 00:44:46 |
...but he doesn't know and he never did. |
| 00:44:48 |
He didn't volunteer for this. |
| 00:44:51 |
Sure he did. It was his job. |
| 00:44:53 |
It wasn't his job to get addicted. |
| 00:44:57 |
We took care of that. |
| 00:44:58 |
Look, Mike, I gotta get out. |
| 00:45:01 |
I can't do this again. |
| 00:45:03 |
I want it to end. I... |
| 00:45:06 |
I lay in bed at night, and I can't sleep, |
| 00:45:09 |
- "Shit, we are colder than they are." |
| 00:45:13 |
I mean, I believe God's m.o. |
| 00:45:16 |
...and if he's active here, |
| 00:45:19 |
...although our eyes can't perceive it. |
| 00:45:22 |
The whole process is hidden |
| 00:45:25 |
...will only be revealed later. |
| 00:45:28 |
And even then... |
| 00:45:30 |
...the people of the future... |
| 00:45:32 |
...our children's children |
| 00:45:36 |
...this awful time that we have |
| 00:45:42 |
Well, maybe some footnote |
| 00:45:46 |
A brief mention |
| 00:46:35 |
You're seeing the flower of the future. |
| 00:46:38 |
- But not for you, Bruce. |
| 00:46:42 |
No, you've had too much |
| 00:46:45 |
Get up, get up. Stop worshipping. |
| 00:46:49 |
This isn't your god anymore, |
| 00:46:53 |
Gone. |
| 00:46:55 |
Flowers gone. |
| 00:46:57 |
No, you just can't see them. |
| 00:46:59 |
Back to work. |
| 00:47:04 |
I saw. |
| 00:47:06 |
Back to work, Bruce. |
| 00:47:13 |
I saw death rising from the earth... |
| 00:47:18 |
...from the ground itself... |
| 00:47:22 |
...in one blue field. |
| 00:47:32 |
A present for my friends... |
| 00:47:35 |
...at Thanksgiving. |
| 00:52:28 |
