00:02:32 [crickets chirping]
00:02:50 - Miss Diver?
00:02:52 It's Deputy Lara, Ma'am.
00:02:55 Got a phone call from this house.
00:02:57 Somebody hung up.
00:02:59 Everything all right?
00:03:05 Miss Diver?
00:03:22 Somebody in there?
00:03:28 I can hear you, you know.
00:03:35 Miss Diver, is that you?
00:03:40 [wind whistling]
00:03:50 Jesus!
00:03:52 [very loud horror music playing]
00:04:04 - Mm-hmm.
00:04:08 Okay.
00:04:11 My aunt died.
00:04:14 - Did she?
00:04:15 - Yeah, they just found her.
00:04:16 Looks like her heart.
00:04:17 - Oh, God, that's awful.
00:04:20 - Look at the bright side.
00:04:22 We got the house.
00:04:23 - What is the matter with you?
00:04:25 - come on, Robin.
00:04:26 Don't suddenly act like we were all close.
00:04:28 That woman was cold as hell to us.
00:04:30 - That's not the point.
00:04:31 - What is the point, Robin?
00:04:32 The point is, when someone just dies,
00:04:35 It's a time to say a prayer
00:04:40 - I am counting' my blessings.
00:04:42 I get the house.
00:04:44 - Marlene Diver was not a great catholic.
00:04:47 But she was a great bingo player.
00:04:50 [laughter]
00:04:51 But I'm guessing God will take her,
00:04:54 she loved her neighbour
00:04:57 - You've got to be kidding' me.
00:04:59 He doesn't show up
00:05:00 - He's in mourning.
00:05:07 - He looks in a good mood.
00:05:08 Someone should make sure he knows
00:05:11 - He's very strong, Carl.
00:05:15 - Hello, Carl.
00:05:16 - Sorry for your loss, Bryan.
00:05:17 - What?
00:05:18 Oh.
00:05:20 It's a sad day.
00:05:24 So what'd I miss?
00:05:25 - Her eternal soul
00:05:28 - Oh, shit.
00:05:29 I really wanted to catch that.
00:05:31 Hey, do you want to take a ride
00:05:32 I'll drop you back.
00:05:33 - My aunt's house.
00:05:35 I just got the key
00:05:36 - Thank you.
00:05:37 I may stop by.
00:05:41 Bryan Becket.
00:05:42 - Thank you for doing this, Father.
00:05:44 She would've appreciated it.
00:05:45 - Well, at least she came on time.
00:05:48 You don't take any of this seriously,
00:05:50 - What?
00:05:51 - Religious ritual, the church.
00:05:53 - Hey.
00:05:54 I'd love to take the church seriously,
00:05:56 but it's kind of hard
00:05:58 wearing' those hats.
00:05:59 [laughter]
00:06:01 - You want to know what I think
00:06:03 - Not really.
00:06:04 - You don't believe in anything, you know?
00:06:06 You don't believe in a higher power.
00:06:07 You don't believe
00:06:09 - You're right.
00:06:10 Life would be easier if I were gullible.
00:06:12 - You think I'm gullible, Becket?
00:06:13 - Sully, you believe in everything.
00:06:15 - I don't believe in everything.
00:06:16 - Yes, you do.
00:06:17 - Okay, didn't you once tell me
00:06:20 - They're going to catch that sucker.
00:06:22 You'll see.
00:06:23 Scottish scientists went down
00:06:27 - And their results were inconclusive.
00:06:29 - Wrong!
00:06:30 They picked up a large moving mass
00:06:34 So what else could it be?
00:06:35 - I don't know.
00:06:36 I don't know what the military
00:06:39 Does that make it aliens?
00:06:40 - No, but alien bodies
00:06:42 - You know what your problem is, Sully?
00:06:44 - What?
00:06:45 - Oh, here we go.
00:06:46 - Really, I mean it.
00:06:47 How big a stretch can it be
00:06:49 once you bought the Holy Trinity?
00:06:54 There it is.
00:06:56 It's a monster.
00:06:57 She lived there alone?
00:06:58 I wouldn't be caught dead
00:07:00 Creep me out.
00:07:01 - I can't wait to get in there.
00:07:03 Hear there's all kinds of antiques,
00:07:05 - You hear?
00:07:06 This is the aunt that didn't like you,
00:07:08 - I don't care if she didn't like me.
00:07:09 She's dead now.
00:07:10 I'm inviting' myself over.
00:07:12 - Yeah, but why didn't she like you?
00:07:15 - Don't know.
00:07:16 - You know, I got to admit,
00:07:19 - Yeah, well you also find
00:07:27 - [whistles]
00:07:28 Wow.
00:07:30 How rich was she?
00:07:32 - She wasn't rich.
00:07:33 This house is the last
00:07:36 - Yeah, but it's yours to sell, right?
00:07:38 - Yep.
00:07:39 - You know, I heard about all
00:07:41 You were never invited,
00:07:43 - Look at this.
00:07:44 This is a genuine Iroquois vase
00:07:46 - Did you offend her in some way
00:07:48 to insult her religious beliefs
00:07:51 'cause, you know,
00:07:53 - The woman wasn't religious, Sully.
00:07:55 - She went to church every Sunday, Bryan.
00:07:56 - Yeah, so did all those people in Salem
00:07:59 - Yeah, right there, that comment?
00:08:00 That's the kind of thing that might
00:08:04 - I wasn't offensive, Sully.
00:08:05 I was sweet and thoughtful,
00:08:06 and I was the lawyer in the family.
00:08:08 Get you out of a parking ticket,
00:08:12 Solid mahogany.
00:08:13 - Yeah, but, you know,
00:08:16 You got your classic mystery here.
00:08:19 Don't you see that?
00:08:20 - Yeah, it's right up there
00:08:22 - Okay.
00:08:24 I don't care how high
00:08:26 You lack common curiosity,
00:08:28 It is.
00:08:29 And I've got it.
00:08:31 You know,
00:08:32 I'm like a two-year-old.
00:08:33 - You want to hear my theory
00:08:35 - You have a theory?
00:08:37 - I don't think she was the saint
00:08:42 I think she was hiding something
00:08:49 And she feared being around
00:08:51 someone who was smart
00:08:54 I just might figure it out.
00:08:58 That's a pretty juicy theory.
00:08:59 It's right up your alley.
00:09:02 What do you think, Sulk?
00:09:03 - [gasping]
00:09:04 - Sully!
00:09:05 [crashing]
00:09:08 Hey!
00:09:09 Sully?
00:09:10 Sully.
00:09:11 Where's your juice?
00:09:12 Where's your juice?
00:09:15 Where's your... okay.
00:09:16 I got it.
00:09:18 All right, just hang on, pal.
00:09:19 You're going to be fine.
00:09:20 Let's just get some juice in you.
00:09:21 - There's something upstairs
00:09:25 behind the crucifix.
00:09:27 - What?
00:09:29 come on.
00:09:30 Sip this.
00:09:32 Sip it.
00:09:33 Good, good.
00:09:35 That better?
00:09:36 - Yeah.
00:09:38 Is it working?
00:09:39 - Good.
00:09:40 You didn't eat today, did you?
00:09:41 - No.
00:09:42 - Well, God damn it, Sully.
00:09:43 You can't take those pills
00:09:45 How long's it going to take you
00:09:47 - Apparently a little while longer.
00:09:49 - Yeah, have a little more.
00:09:51 - Okay.
00:09:53 Oh.
00:09:55 - What was that you were
00:09:57 A closet upstairs with a crucifix?
00:09:59 - Did I say something?
00:10:01 Did I say something weird?
00:10:02 - What's this?
00:10:04 - I think it was on the desk.
00:10:06 - All right, come on.
00:10:07 You need food.
00:10:10 Hey.
00:10:12 You and I need to have a little talk.
00:10:13 - Man to man?
00:10:15 - Man to man.
00:10:20 Now, your mom and I told you
00:10:23 - Her heart got old.
00:10:24 - Yeah.
00:10:25 And I'm in charge
00:10:28 She's got a lot of expensive
00:10:30 so I'm going to have to go
00:10:34 make sure nobody takes anything.
00:10:36 - Okay.
00:10:38 can I visit?
00:10:39 - Of course you can.
00:10:42 Whenever you want.
00:10:43 And you can call me too, okay?
00:10:45 - Okay.
00:10:47 - I got to go tell Mom.
00:10:50 - Be careful.
00:10:51 She's still mad from breakfast.
00:10:59 - Hey.
00:11:03 Look, my aunt's house is just
00:11:06 So I was thinking maybe I'd use it.
00:11:11 You know, just for a few weeks
00:11:14 - Like we talked about?
00:11:15 - Yes.
00:11:16 Didn't we talk about this?
00:11:17 Didn't we talk about how
00:11:20 might be exactly what we need
00:11:21 Didn't we say that was something
00:11:24 - Yes, we said that.
00:11:25 But one of us was bluffing.
00:11:27 I guess we know now it wasn't you.
00:11:29 - No.
00:11:33 It wasn't me.
00:12:13 [sighs]
00:12:21 [garbled voices]
00:12:33 - Hi, this is Marlene Diver.
00:12:34 Please leave a message.
00:12:35 Thank you.
00:12:39 - It's Bryan Becket.
00:12:40 Please leave a message.
00:12:42 [loud thud and shaking glass]
00:12:44 [glass shaking]
00:14:00 [stairs creak]
00:14:03 [wind whistling]
00:14:12 [bed creaking]
00:14:18 [people chatting]
00:14:24 Morning', Carol.
00:14:25 Hey, it's no rush,
00:14:27 but I still need
00:14:29 Are you okay?
00:14:31 - I'm fine.
00:14:35 - Morning, Riley, Sarah.
00:14:40 What is wrong with everyone today?
00:14:42 Hey, could I talk to you
00:14:43 - Mm-hmm.
00:14:46 - Please be seated.
00:14:48 Are you and Robin separated?
00:14:50 Now, I only know this because
00:14:53 who called Karen,
00:14:55 so it's going to be on O-SPAN
00:14:57 - That's between Robin and me.
00:14:59 - And Celeste and Karen.
00:15:04 Robin thinks that I'm too unemotional.
00:15:14 - Unemotional?
00:15:15 [laughs]
00:15:16 She knew that going' in.
00:15:18 - Thank you.
00:15:19 She knew that going' in.
00:15:21 I haven't changed.
00:15:22 I'm the exact same guy
00:15:24 12 years ago.
00:15:25 You bet I'm unemotional.
00:15:26 She used to be fine with that.
00:15:27 It was a turn-on.
00:15:28 But suddenly it's not enough
00:15:30 'cause she turned 40,
00:15:31 and she wants someone to panic with.
00:15:34 And she wants me to cry.
00:15:36 - About what?
00:15:38 - It's my choice.
00:15:39 She just wants me to reach down
00:15:42 - Could you even do that?
00:15:43 - Are you kidding' me, Sully?
00:15:44 I'm a guy.
00:15:45 I haven't cried since I went
00:15:47 - The Lou Gehrig speech.
00:15:49 So what's your plan?
00:15:51 - My plan is to stay separated
00:15:53 she can't change me,
00:15:54 gets scared that if she keeps
00:15:56 she's going to lose me forever,
00:15:58 gets used to being' 40.
00:15:59 We live happily ever after.
00:16:00 - Dismissed.
00:16:25 [door creaking]
00:17:05 [door creaking]
00:17:21 [wooden creaking]
00:18:00 - Becket!
00:18:01 Beck!
00:18:04 - Hey!
00:18:05 - Don't you answer your door?
00:18:07 - You're a crisis addict.
00:18:09 What is it now?
00:18:10 - This is your crisis this time.
00:18:11 Come on.
00:18:16 - Okay, what?
00:18:18 - This is your aunt's will.
00:18:19 - What?
00:18:20 My aunt didn't have a will.
00:18:21 - Well, her good friend Martha Corn
00:18:24 so I checked it out.
00:18:25 This is your aunt's will.
00:18:27 She wrote it herself,
00:18:29 and it's completely legal.
00:18:31 This isn’t your house, Beck.
00:18:32 - What are you talking about?
00:18:35 I'm her only kin.
00:18:36 I have this house through succession.
00:18:37 - You are her only kin.
00:18:38 - Then who the hell did she
00:18:40 - The Delano Institute.
00:18:42 I don't know why...
00:18:43 - But she left it to
00:18:45 run by one Dr. Warren Coven.
00:18:49 - Okay, what do we know about
00:18:51 - He runs a sleep lab.
00:18:52 - Which is what, exactly?
00:18:54 - I don't know;
00:18:56 And now they've got your house,
00:18:58 I'm sure they're going to sleep a lot easier.
00:19:09 - So this is a sleep lab.
00:19:11 - Yeah, it's not a typical one.
00:19:12 The Institute had space issues,
00:19:15 But we're very proud of our work.
00:19:17 We're regular contributors
00:19:18 to The Poly graphic Journal,
00:19:21 - People with problems sleeping.
00:19:22 - Uh, yeah.
00:19:23 Do you have sleep problems, Mr. Becket?
00:19:25 - Sometimes.
00:19:30 - Well, we're here to help.
00:19:32 Yeah, please take a look.
00:19:33 Ms. Carl is with us tonight.
00:19:35 She's a sleepwalker,
00:19:38 - And what was my aunt's problem?
00:19:42 I mean,
00:19:44 for some sort of sleep disorder.
00:19:45 Is that right?
00:19:46 - No, actually, she...
00:19:50 - Then how did you know her?
00:19:52 - She had an interest
00:19:53 in a different lab
00:19:55 - Another sleep lab?
00:19:56 - No, actually, it's a lab
00:19:58 on various topics
00:20:02 - And would that be the lab
00:20:05 - Probably.
00:20:07 - Then I believe that's the lab
00:20:15 - Three.
00:20:17 - Welcome to the Coven Project.
00:20:19 Tonight's concept is a very simple one.
00:20:21 Oases meditates as random
00:20:24 on Dillon's screen.
00:20:26 A vibration signal is sent down
00:20:27 into the studio
00:20:29 to the electronic ball
00:20:32 where she makes the determination
00:20:34 whether the number
00:20:36 - She makes a determination about what?
00:20:38 It seems to me it's just a guess, right?
00:20:41 - Well, there we go.
00:20:42 That's the million-dollar question.
00:20:44 Is it a guess?
00:20:45 See, what we're trying to do here,
00:20:46 under the most stringent
00:20:48 is to quantify one human being's
00:20:53 - Oh.
00:20:55 Psychic.
00:20:56 - Well, ESP, to be more general.
00:20:58 - Warren, she's gone below 50%.
00:20:59 - All right.
00:21:01 Excuse me one second.
00:21:03 Derek?
00:21:04 I need you to drop the room
00:21:07 - Are you sure you want to do that?
00:21:09 You want to heat the bed?
00:21:11 She's been down too long.
00:21:12 - All right.
00:21:13 - So that's what you study here, ESP.
00:21:16 - Yes, amongst other things,
00:21:18 mostly dealing with psi energy
00:21:21 - Paranormal activity.
00:21:22 And you're telling me
00:21:24 believed in all this stuff?
00:21:26 - Absolutely.
00:21:27 I mean, that's why she's funding us.
00:21:29 See, your aunt experienced
00:21:31 around the house.
00:21:32 - I'm sorry.
00:21:34 - She experienced paranormal
00:21:37 - Meaning what?
00:21:38 - Well, meaning that she,
00:21:39 you know, she thought the place
00:21:41 - She wasn't serious.
00:21:43 - Oh, no, she was very serious,
00:21:45 She even brought us photographs.
00:21:47 - Photographs of what?
00:21:48 - What she believed to be the centre
00:21:51 - This is absurd.
00:21:55 - I believe that's a closet
00:21:57 - Yes, I know where it is.
00:21:59 Taking pictures of it means...
00:22:03 - I'm not saying her house
00:22:05 But I am saying that she
00:22:07 - Doc.
00:22:08 - Paranormal disturbances,
00:22:09 - Warren, we got a problem here.
00:22:10 - Oh, shit!
00:22:11 God damn it.
00:22:13 - She fucked up the entire TLS.
00:22:15 - Fuck you!
00:22:16 [crashing]
00:22:18 - Jesus!
00:22:19 - Jesus, she's out of control.
00:22:21 - What?
00:22:24 - Ross.
00:22:26 - I called it.
00:22:28 - You weren't concentrating.
00:22:30 It sucked?
00:22:32 - I sucked?
00:22:33 Y... no.
00:22:34 I just... you could be so m...
00:22:36 Oases!
00:22:38 - You lied to me.
00:22:39 - God damn it.
00:22:40 - Understand?
00:22:41 - Oases, please.
00:22:47 - What's in the briefcase?
00:22:50 - Just some New York State
00:22:52 on the succession of property.
00:22:54 Listen...
00:22:55 - I apologize.
00:22:57 It's just, she's very high-strung
00:22:59 She is very gifted.
00:23:01 Hold up, Mr. Becket.
00:23:02 Could you hold up a second please?
00:23:03 Listen, so the girl's an eccentric.
00:23:05 So what?
00:23:06 - You think this is about the girl?
00:23:08 It's your entire operation.
00:23:09 - Really?
00:23:10 - Representing to a dying old woman
00:23:12 that you have answers
00:23:15 Giving supernatural significance
00:23:18 - No, not supernatural.
00:23:19 Natural.
00:23:21 - We told her we could give natural,
00:23:24 to whatever she heard.
00:23:26 - Scientific, paranormal, ESP,
00:23:27 - Yes, they're as scientific as gravity.
00:23:29 They're just not yet fully understood.
00:23:31 Go look up
00:23:33 their Sony Zapper lab.
00:23:34 Don't get me wrong.
00:23:35 We're not looking for ghosts here.
00:23:37 What we do is science.
00:23:38 - I know a little bit
00:23:41 Who is officially behind
00:23:44 - Oh, I get it.
00:23:46 You're contesting the will.
00:23:47 That's what this is really about.
00:23:48 You didn't get the money.
00:23:49 - No, what this is about
00:23:52 of an old woman whose faculties
00:23:54 - Faculties?
00:23:55 She was more lucid than you.
00:23:57 Wear a blue suit when you
00:24:01 - You're a close-minded man, Mr. Becket.
00:24:05 - And why is that, Doctor?
00:24:07 Because I don't happen to think
00:24:10 - No, because you don't think.
00:24:11 You know.
00:24:12 And that's where
00:25:04 [metallic clink]
00:25:10 [door creaking]
00:25:48 "Though I walk through the valley
00:25:49 of the shadow of death"...
00:25:54 "The demon walks here. "
00:26:01 [scoffs]
00:26:02 [door creaking]
00:26:04 Hey, hey!
00:26:06 Hey!
00:26:07 Hey!
00:26:29 [laughs]
00:26:39 - Why is he sent?
00:26:43 [indistinct whispering]
00:26:48 [clicking noises]
00:27:01 Do you believe it's him?
00:27:02 Please.
00:27:03 What does he want?
00:27:05 - What does he want here?
00:27:06 - That's...
00:27:07 [crashing]
00:27:18 [phone beeping]
00:27:25 - 911.
00:27:27 - There's someone in my house.
00:27:29 - What did you say, sir?
00:27:30 Someone in the house?
00:27:31 - Yes.
00:27:33 [phone beeps]
00:27:37 - [whispering]
00:27:45 Look in the trunk.
00:27:47 Old trunk.
00:27:52 Old trunk.
00:27:55 - Hey!
00:27:56 Hey!
00:28:03 [horn honks]
00:28:08 - Get rid of the flake factor.
00:28:09 - Oh.
00:28:10 - May I talk to you for a minute?
00:28:13 - Give me the room, would you, guys?
00:28:20 - First of all, I'd like to apologize
00:28:23 I came on too strong.
00:28:24 And for that I'm sorry.
00:28:26 - Hmm.
00:28:27 Did something happen?
00:28:28 - Let's just say
00:28:29 that I now understand how my aunt
00:28:33 and thought her place was haunted.
00:28:34 [laughs]
00:28:35 I thought I heard something
00:28:37 I'm staying there
00:28:39 - What did you hear?
00:28:40 - Whispering outside my door.
00:28:42 I do not believe in ghosts.
00:28:44 And I got the sense
00:28:46 - I don't.
00:28:48 I don't believe
00:28:49 - Then we're kindred spirits.
00:28:51 But that still leaves me
00:28:54 - Mehh.
00:28:55 Sit.
00:28:59 The human voice
00:29:02 It's a sound that nature
00:29:04 has very little difficulty mimicking.
00:29:07 Now, what I'm going to play for you is real.
00:29:11 It was recorded in a farmhouse
00:29:15 It was heard by multiple witnesses,
00:29:18 sworn to in an affidavit.
00:29:19 Okay?
00:29:20 It's the real McCoy.
00:29:21 Please.
00:29:28 [indistinct screeching]
00:29:41 Isn't that amazing?
00:29:42 This is an authentic aural event.
00:29:46 And it's probably what we call
00:29:48 It's a build-up of chi field energy,
00:29:50 then released
00:29:52 - But it's not words.
00:29:53 - What do you mean?
00:29:54 - How does it come out as words,
00:29:57 in an intelligent sentence structure?
00:29:59 - Well, it doesn't.
00:30:01 I mean, maybe it does
00:30:03 like those monkeys
00:30:04 - No, but it did for me.
00:30:08 The voice that I heard spoke.
00:30:10 It did not just say,
00:30:13 It said something like
00:30:18 And it kept repeating it
00:30:20 "An old trunk" or "in an old trunk"
00:30:26 - Bryan, is it?
00:30:27 - Yeah.
00:30:28 - How well can you hear
00:30:30 - Pretty well, I guess.
00:30:31 Okay, now, what was the volume like?
00:30:33 - Like I'm talking now?
00:30:36 - Maybe a little lower.
00:30:38 - You know,
00:30:39 and I don't want you to get embarrassed,
00:30:43 But you heard whispering sounds.
00:30:46 And presuming that they must be human,
00:30:48 your brain strove
00:30:50 So "old trunk," or "in the old trunk"
00:30:54 It's called psychoacoustics.
00:30:55 Excuse me.
00:30:57 - Really.
00:30:58 I respect the concept.
00:30:59 I really do.
00:31:01 But I don't know.
00:31:02 - What I heard was so...
00:31:05 - What'd I say?
00:31:07 - What?
00:31:08 - Oh, did you catch that?
00:31:10 - Yeah.
00:31:11 You said, "What'd I say?"
00:31:12 - No, I didn't.
00:31:13 I said, "Rudd lie stay. "
00:31:14 [whispers]
00:31:17 You made it into
00:31:22 - Huh.
00:31:23 Shit.
00:31:24 - Your aunt did the same thing.
00:31:26 She took a garden variety
00:31:28 and made it into a haunting.
00:31:30 - [chuckles]
00:31:31 I'll be damned.
00:31:32 - You're surprised, huh?
00:31:33 You thought I'd accept your
00:31:35 as an everyday thing, didn't you?
00:31:37 - No, I thought it was an
00:31:43 Don't they have nuns
00:31:46 - [laughs]
00:31:48 Careful.
00:31:49 You'll get me in trouble.
00:31:50 - I'm late for our meeting, Father.
00:31:52 My apologies.
00:31:53 - You know, some people would say
00:31:55 being late for a meeting
00:31:56 shows a subconscious hostility
00:32:00 - You think it's subconscious?
00:32:02 What'd you want to see me about?
00:32:04 - Your aunt's place.
00:32:05 I drove by there last night,
00:32:10 and I was very curious about
00:32:14 - I'm staying' there.
00:32:17 - You are?
00:32:18 - Yeah.
00:32:19 Robin and I are taking
00:32:21 Why, is something' wrong?
00:32:22 - Oh, you're going to think
00:32:26 - Oh, I think half what you say
00:32:27 It's part of your charm.
00:32:29 So what is it?
00:32:30 - Be careful in that house.
00:32:34 - What does that mean?
00:32:36 - It means
00:32:37 there's something not quite
00:32:40 - Are you trying' to tell me you
00:32:43 - You don't believe
00:32:45 - No, I do not.
00:32:46 - Do you believe in evil?
00:32:48 - No, I do not.
00:32:49 - Your aunt believed
00:32:51 - Would you like to know how I see
00:32:53 this whole haunted house business?
00:32:55 - Yes, I would.
00:32:57 - My aunt in her younger, stronger days
00:33:00 would never have fallen prey
00:33:03 But at 81, in failing health,
00:33:06 living all alone in a great big house
00:33:10 some regrets, no doubt,
00:33:13 whatever it was,
00:33:15 she was ripe to run with it.
00:33:17 Now, you mix that in
00:33:18 with hardening of the arteries,
00:33:23 - You're a good lawyer, Becket.
00:33:24 - I'm a doubting Thomas, Father.
00:33:26 No offense.
00:33:27 It's just in my nature.
00:33:28 - None taken.
00:33:30 - Still, it's always good to see you.
00:33:31 - And you, my friend.
00:33:34 Just remember one thing, Becket.
00:33:39 Thomas was wrong.
00:34:00 [wooden creaking]
00:34:15 - Ah!
00:34:17 - Jeez.
00:34:19 You are such a dick.
00:34:21 - You shouldn't leave
00:34:23 - [sighs]
00:34:25 You scared the shit out of me.
00:34:27 - Ah.
00:34:28 Where were you this morning?
00:34:29 - Huh?
00:34:34 Oh, God!
00:34:36 Damn it.
00:34:37 God damn it!
00:34:39 I missed the conference
00:34:41 Oh, shit.
00:34:43 Aw, I'm sorry.
00:34:44 - Screw sorry.
00:34:45 What's going' on with you?
00:34:46 - Nothing’s going' on with me, Sully.
00:34:48 I missed a meeting.
00:34:49 I can't miss one meeting?
00:34:50 - No, you cannot miss one meeting.
00:34:52 And do you know why?
00:34:53 'Cause you're a control freak
00:34:55 You missing' one meeting is like
00:34:57 his own flicking' wedding.
00:34:58 And now I'm good and worried.
00:35:01 Yeah, 'cause I think you're
00:35:03 - Oh, get out of here.
00:35:04 I'm not having' a breakdown.
00:35:06 - Oh, how would you know?
00:35:07 See, people that are having'
00:35:08 that they're having' a breakdown.
00:35:10 They just think the water tastes funny.
00:35:11 You left your wife.
00:35:12 You left your son,
00:35:14 both of who I know you adore.
00:35:15 You move into this creepy old house.
00:35:18 And then you miss a meeting.
00:35:19 - Okay, I will never miss
00:35:22 That's an oath.
00:35:23 - Becks,
00:35:24 you have amazed me
00:35:27 So if you need a break,
00:35:29 you raise your hand.
00:35:31 You don't have to be
00:35:33 until his heart explodes.
00:35:38 Look, I'm sorry I had to bust your balls.
00:35:45 Need a hug?
00:35:46 - [laughs]
00:35:47 Not from you.
00:35:49 - Well, check your inventory, pal.
00:35:51 I'm all you got left.
00:36:02 [door creaking]
00:36:25 - Hm.
00:36:28 Old trunk.
00:36:54 [sighs]
00:36:56 Well, my dear Watson,
00:37:01 what do you suppose
00:37:06 The remains of someone murdered
00:37:32 [wind blowing]
00:38:01 [wooden creaking]
00:38:16 - [whispering]
00:38:17 [thumping sound]
00:38:29 - Who's in here?
00:38:34 Who's in my house?
00:39:15 - I want your lab work Friday, okay?
00:39:18 Oh, yeah,
00:39:20 between night terrors
00:39:22 We already spoke about that.
00:39:31 - I saw something this time.
00:39:34 A woman at the bottom of the stairs.
00:39:37 She was just sitting there.
00:39:40 There's no woman in my house, Doctor.
00:39:42 It's empty except for me.
00:39:45 So what did I see?
00:39:50 - I have no idea.
00:39:53 - Are you telling me that no one
00:39:57 - Yeah.
00:39:59 Not that held up.
00:40:00 - Held up?
00:40:03 - I know this is difficult,
00:40:05 but is there any history
00:40:09 - Are you serious?
00:40:12 [scoffs]
00:40:14 You're serious.
00:40:17 You're trying' to pin this on me?
00:40:18 - I'm not trying to pin anything on anyone.
00:40:20 But as rational people,
00:40:23 - I am not a possibility.
00:40:25 - So your answer's no.
00:40:26 There's no history.
00:40:27 - That's right.
00:40:28 - All right, so just...
00:40:30 - No.
00:40:31 - Hallucinations?
00:40:32 - Manic depression?
00:40:35 - Any bipolar disorders, Bryan?
00:40:37 - One uncle, maybe.
00:40:39 So what?
00:40:40 - Well, I'm just going off a list.
00:40:43 But if there's any familial history at all,
00:40:45 and you've had this episode,
00:40:49 - [laughs]
00:40:52 You think I should see someone.
00:40:53 - I do, I do.
00:40:54 And I know a very good man...
00:40:55 - How dare you try to pin this on me?
00:40:59 I happen to be, Doctor,
00:41:01 one of the most boringly sane people
00:41:04 that you have ever fucking met!
00:41:22 Tell him it's Bryan Becket.
00:41:25 [kids chattering]
00:41:56 I just don't get the way
00:42:00 Murder victims, Lizzie Borden.
00:42:01 And then we stand back
00:42:03 as though it's something
00:42:05 right up there with our first communion.
00:42:07 - What's troubling you, my friend?
00:42:08 - Oh, just my usual.
00:42:10 Insomnia.
00:42:11 - Ah, well, we can fix that.
00:42:13 - Hey, Doc,
00:42:17 can it lead to other symptoms?
00:42:18 - Sure.
00:42:21 - Hallucinations.
00:42:25 - You've been having hallucinations, Bryan?
00:42:27 - Just one.
00:42:28 Maybe I was sleepwalking,
00:42:31 sort of ghostlike, I guess.
00:42:33 I flicked on the light,
00:42:35 - Yeah, yeah.
00:42:36 Sleep deprivations can cause
00:42:40 But if it occurs again,
00:42:41 All right?
00:42:42 - All right.
00:42:43 - Why aren't you sleeping?
00:42:45 It's brutal right now.
00:42:47 Tons of big cases.
00:42:48 And on top of that,
00:42:53 - Oh?
00:42:54 - Yeah, I think with Robin and me,
00:42:56 it's a game of marital chicken,
00:42:58 Just give each other
00:43:00 I think we'll be all right.
00:43:01 - Yes, I think it'll work out.
00:43:02 You're a good couple.
00:43:03 - But in the meantime,
00:43:06 And I got to tell you,
00:43:09 - I'm sorry.
00:43:10 - To my aunt's house for now.
00:43:12 - Oh.
00:43:14 And is that where you had
00:43:16 - Yep.
00:43:17 - And this ghostlike image,
00:43:24 - It was a woman.
00:43:26 - Oh.
00:43:27 Was there anything about this woman
00:43:31 Anything about her face
00:43:35 - I couldn't say.
00:43:38 I just saw it from the back.
00:43:39 - It?
00:43:43 - Her.
00:43:45 Her.
00:43:47 - [chuckles]
00:43:48 Excuse me.
00:43:49 I was just struck with the memory
00:43:51 of the first time your father
00:43:55 It was just after your mother passed.
00:43:57 I was new to my profession,
00:44:00 And you were this
00:44:03 who looked at my diploma wall
00:44:05 why I hadn't been
00:44:07 - Oh, Jesus.
00:44:09 Did I?
00:44:10 - Yeah, we did good work though.
00:44:12 We were making progress.
00:44:13 And then...
00:44:15 well, I always thought your father
00:44:19 - My dad hated shrinks.
00:44:20 I think he feared that if you
00:44:23 you might discover some
00:44:26 - Hmm.
00:44:27 Well, whatever the reason,
00:44:31 - Hence my insomnia.
00:44:32 - And your issues with death.
00:44:33 What I think you need...
00:44:35 - Is to spend more time on your couch.
00:44:37 Yeah, I know.
00:44:38 You suggest that every year.
00:44:39 - Well, what do you think of it this year?
00:44:41 - I think you drive a fancy enough car.
00:44:44 You don't need another patient.
00:44:46 - Ooh.
00:44:47 You're getting better.
00:44:49 - Thanks, Doc.
00:44:50 Appreciate it.
00:44:57 It's funny though.
00:44:58 You mentioned my mother.
00:45:00 It's sad.
00:45:02 I can barely remember her.
00:45:05 Except for titbits,
00:45:11 there's nothing.
00:45:12 - She's in there, Bryan.
00:45:13 She's in there.
00:45:30 [birds cawing]
00:45:55 [glass shatters]
00:45:58 [loud shattering]
00:46:00 [women screaming]
00:46:09 - Ver. Staten.
00:46:10 Dr. Sheppard.
00:46:11 Okay, I'll be right there.
00:46:15 Hi.
00:46:16 Hey, you.
00:46:18 I can't do this right now.
00:46:20 I have a meeting.
00:46:21 This is for him.
00:46:23 He thinks you left us
00:46:26 Come on.
00:46:34 - You a werewolf?
00:46:35 Whoa.
00:46:37 Scary werewolf.
00:46:38 No.
00:46:39 Not scary.
00:46:40 - Oh, okay, not scary.
00:46:41 There's nobody here but me, pal.
00:46:43 Do you want to look for yourself?
00:46:45 You want to explore?
00:46:47 Okay.
00:46:48 Hurry up.
00:46:49 Dad's got a meeting.
00:46:56 - What are you doing here?
00:46:58 - We need some time apart, Robin.
00:46:59 - I want us in therapy.
00:47:01 - Therapy.
00:47:02 - Yeah.
00:47:04 - I have my doubts about therapy.
00:47:05 - Oh, you have your doubts
00:47:07 All you do all day is have doubts
00:47:10 - Well, uh, what would you rather, Robin,
00:47:11 I was one at those fanatics
00:47:13 - You are every bit as certain
00:47:16 - Okay, that's absurd.
00:47:17 That is an absurd thing to say.
00:47:19 I am not certain about anything,
00:47:21 we're even farther apart
00:47:23 - So what do you call it then
00:47:24 when you are so positive
00:47:26 flawed in our thinking?
00:47:28 I call that certain, arrogant.
00:47:30 And I don't think it's 'cause
00:47:32 I think it's 'cause you're lost.
00:47:33 - Well, guess what, Robin.
00:47:35 I hardly care what you think,
00:47:36 'cause I got trial in the morning,
00:47:38 and I got a 200 page deposition...
00:47:40 - Is it your mother?
00:47:42 - What?
00:47:44 - I said, is it your mother?
00:47:46 Is that why you're messed up,
00:47:52 'cause of what you saw that day?
00:47:55 - My mother died when I was five.
00:47:57 I barely remember her.
00:47:59 - I don't believe it.
00:48:00 - Oh, you think I'm lying?
00:48:01 - I think that you've buried stuff.
00:48:03 I think that you saw more
00:48:05 then they told you.
00:48:06 - All right, you know what we're
00:48:08 We are not going to play
00:48:11 - Listen...
00:48:12 - My mother is not the problem
00:48:14 So for you to try to pin it on a woman
00:48:16 - Do you know you
00:48:18 - I what?
00:48:21 - And I've never told you before,
00:48:23 because I thought it would
00:48:25 When you talk about her,
00:48:27 you talk about her face.
00:48:28 All right, God damn it, that's enough.
00:48:30 Let this alone!
00:48:31 - This is the shit that is
00:48:32 - No, you're doing it,
00:48:34 - You sit up in bed like a child
00:48:36 terrified,
00:48:39 You know what you're looking at?
00:48:40 You're looking at her!
00:48:41 You see her!
00:48:42 - Stop this!
00:48:43 - [screams]
00:48:44 - Mama!
00:48:45 - Michael!
00:48:46 - Michael?
00:48:48 - Michael!
00:48:49 Michael!
00:48:58 - Baby?
00:49:00 - Someone's in the closet.
00:49:05 - What?
00:49:07 - They said my name.
00:49:09 - Oh, no, sweetheart.
00:49:11 There's nobody here but Daddy.
00:49:12 - Maybe it's a ghost.
00:49:14 - Oh, no, baby.
00:49:15 Remember what Daddy and I
00:49:18 So what did Daddy and I
00:49:21 Daddy?
00:49:22 What did we tell Michael about ghosts?
00:49:25 - They're not real.
00:49:26 - They're not real.
00:49:28 Okay?
00:49:29 It's just your imagination again,
00:49:31 - Come here, pal.
00:49:39 They sure do seem real
00:49:42 [door creaks]
00:50:03 - Hmm.
00:50:05 Sully.
00:50:26 [leaves rustling]
00:50:31 Oh, come on.
00:50:54 Oh, Jesus Christ!
00:50:59 It's you.
00:51:00 - So this is the big, bad, house, huh?
00:51:02 I might be too nervous to come in.
00:51:04 - Nobody asked you in.
00:51:09 What, are you planning'
00:51:11 - Uh-huh.
00:51:12 I heard you saw something here.
00:51:13 And I'm intrigued.
00:51:15 - What I saw was not real.
00:51:17 Excuse me.
00:51:19 Excuse me.
00:51:21 You can't just walk in here.
00:51:23 Hey!
00:51:24 What do you think you're doing?
00:51:26 This is my house.
00:51:30 - There's something here.
00:51:32 - Okay.
00:51:33 What?
00:51:34 What do you think I saw?
00:51:36 - A ghost.
00:51:37 - I don't believe in ghosts.
00:51:38 - Well, that's ironic,
00:51:41 - What I saw was a hallucination
00:51:43 - Yeah.
00:51:44 My shrink would say that too.
00:51:46 [chuckles]
00:51:47 Look, it's not as out there
00:51:50 the whole ghost thing.
00:51:51 In fact, 46% of the people
00:51:55 46% of the people in this country
00:51:58 - Oh, wow.
00:52:00 You know something?
00:52:01 You're very arrogant.
00:52:04 - I'm sorry.
00:52:05 - Don't be.
00:52:06 I like that.
00:52:08 - You still can't stay.
00:52:10 - You're a lawyer, right?
00:52:11 - Yes.
00:52:13 - That means you get off on logic, proof.
00:52:15 - I don't know if I get off on
00:52:17 - Even Coven, the fool,
00:52:19 - I don't believe in ESP.
00:52:20 - No, no, no.
00:52:22 You're missing my point.
00:52:25 You saw something here.
00:52:27 So just suppose for a moment
00:52:34 And since you haven't described
00:52:36 except as a woman at the bottom
00:52:39 then if I see her too,
00:52:45 I mean, that would be proof
00:52:50 Good proof.
00:52:52 - You can have this bedroom
00:52:53 It's got its own bath.
00:52:55 I'll be up on the third floor
00:53:00 Oh, no.
00:53:01 No, no.
00:53:03 This was my aunt's room,
00:53:04 the one that died.
00:53:05 - Oh.
00:53:06 So it's vacant.
00:53:08 - Yeah.
00:53:10 Whatever.
00:53:13 Hey, let me ask you something.
00:53:14 How does a girl your age
00:53:16 - I come from money.
00:53:17 - And your folks?
00:53:18 - My mother ran away when I was six,
00:53:20 and my father passed away
00:53:22 - Hmm.
00:53:23 I'm sorry then about your
00:53:24 - No, don't be.
00:53:26 - What, you two weren't close?
00:53:27 - Not in a good way.
00:53:33 - Do you have siblings?
00:53:34 - Yeah, I have a brother.
00:53:35 He's in a mental institution.
00:53:38 He's been there since he was 13.
00:53:40 And you probably figured
00:53:42 I don't mean to be rude or anything,
00:53:46 - Go do what you do.
00:53:47 - Thanks.
00:53:56 [screaming]
00:53:57 - Jesus Christ!
00:54:07 - Someone died in here.
00:54:10 A man.
00:54:12 Oh.
00:54:14 His head.
00:54:16 Severe pain.
00:54:19 - My aunt's husband, my Uncle,
00:54:20 died in this house 25 years ago
00:54:25 I don't know where in the house exactly.
00:54:27 - It was here.
00:54:28 - How do you know that?
00:54:31 There are a lot of people
00:54:36 - Nobody told me anything.
00:54:46 That's fine.
00:54:47 Thank you.
00:54:53 - I'm glad you didn't sit in that chair.
00:54:56 It's funny.
00:54:58 The other night I walked past
00:55:00 and I could've sworn
00:55:03 You know, for someone who scorns
00:55:05 you sure do report a lot of incidents.
00:55:08 [glass shatters]
00:55:17 - What the fuck was that?
00:55:18 - The house is waking up.
00:55:20 I got to get some things.
00:55:23 Oh, wow.
00:55:25 - Leave it.
00:55:26 I'll get it.
00:55:28 - Are you going to help me?
00:55:29 I can use your help.
00:55:30 - Uh...
00:55:32 You know what?
00:55:33 Why don't you think about it?
00:55:35 I'll be downstairs soon.
00:55:37 - You know,
00:55:39 This is not usually the way I prepare.
00:56:02 - Age.
00:56:04 [loud crashing]
00:56:05 - Oases, Oases!
00:56:08 Oases!
00:56:09 - What?
00:56:10 - Did you hear that?
00:56:11 - All I heard was you yelling.
00:56:12 - You didn't hear someone
00:56:14 - Oh, God, no.
00:56:15 - You didn't hear that?
00:56:17 - Oh, that's weird.
00:56:20 The house talks
00:56:21 but only to you.
00:56:23 - Or I'm talking to myself.
00:56:25 - Don't do that.
00:56:27 You're not imagining things, Bryan.
00:56:28 Why would you all of a sudden imagine
00:56:32 - My mother died falling down
00:56:52 - Wait.
00:56:54 - What is it?
00:56:55 - Something's moving in the house.
00:56:58 Do you feel it?
00:57:00 - Me?
00:57:05 Upstairs to the right.
00:57:11 [chuckles]
00:57:42 [door creaks]
00:57:45 [wind howling]
00:57:52 Oases, are you all right?
00:57:54 - I'm fine.
00:57:55 - What the hell was that?
00:57:56 - That was a warning.
00:57:57 Whatever is in this house
00:58:00 - Well, are you going to?
00:58:01 - [scoffs]
00:58:03 - We're done with this.
00:58:04 Leave that light on.
00:58:05 This house needs all the light
00:58:07 - Yeah, good.
00:58:08 Don't know why you wanted
00:58:15 What?
00:58:16 What is it?
00:58:18 - The stairs where you saw the woman.
00:58:22 They're the ones back there,
00:58:25 - Yeah.
00:58:32 Oases,
00:58:34 this is where I step off, okay?
00:58:35 I just have too much work to do,
00:58:42 Oases?
00:58:44 Are you all right with that?
00:58:50 Oases?
00:58:55 Oases?
00:59:18 Why are you looking' at me like that?
00:59:24 - You don't know, do you?
00:59:26 - What?
00:59:29 - Who she was,
00:59:30 the woman you saw.
00:59:33 Bryan,
00:59:35 it was your mother.
00:59:38 - What?
00:59:39 Helen, I think, or...
00:59:41 - Helena.
00:59:44 - Helena.
00:59:45 Yeah.
00:59:47 Helena Margaret.
00:59:55 Something about her frightens you,
01:00:01 something about her face.
01:00:07 Your mother died falling down stairs,
01:00:11 Where?
01:00:12 - At our house outside Boston.
01:00:14 - Where in Boston?
01:00:16 Where in Boston exactly?
01:00:17 - Near Braintree.
01:00:18 We moved just after.
01:00:20 - That's interesting.
01:00:28 You should come with me.
01:00:30 Please.
01:00:41 I don't know why you've been
01:00:44 but your mother fell here,
01:00:48 down these stairs.
01:00:50 - What?
01:00:55 No.
01:00:56 That doesn't make any sense.
01:01:00 They told me that it...
01:01:01 - They told you what?
01:01:02 - She fell in our...
01:01:07 Why in God's name would they
01:01:09 - Maybe it wasn't in God's name
01:01:12 There's a very bad secret
01:01:14 I know that much.
01:01:16 And if you want me to help you
01:01:21 But it might get worse before it get...
01:01:23 - I want to know.
01:01:24 - All right.
01:01:26 You got to tell me what you remember
01:01:28 - Not much.
01:01:29 I've never had much memory of her.
01:01:32 She used to fight with my aunt a lot.
01:01:34 - About what?
01:01:35 - I don't know.
01:01:40 - Do you remember the day she died?
01:01:47 - Pieces.
01:01:50 - Did you see her fall?
01:01:52 - No.
01:01:53 But I...
01:01:55 - What?
01:01:56 Tell me.
01:01:58 - I heard it.
01:02:03 I heard her fall.
01:02:07 It's a horrible sound,
01:02:11 - Do you remember what you were doing
01:02:13 - I was playing.
01:02:15 Where?
01:02:16 - In my room over there.
01:02:23 Oh, my God.
01:02:26 That was my room.
01:02:51 Oh, God!
01:02:53 Oh, God!
01:02:54 [screaming]
01:02:58 I don't remember.
01:03:03 I just feel it.
01:03:05 - It's all right, Bryan.
01:03:06 It's all right.
01:03:07 - I just know it happened in there
01:03:09 and that it happened to me.
01:03:16 Do you know?
01:03:17 - No, I don't.
01:03:19 - Do you know what it was?
01:03:20 - No.
01:03:21 - [whimpering]
01:03:40 They say that the unknown
01:03:47 - Yes.
01:03:49 - Therefore, I should be less scared
01:03:53 - That's the theory.
01:04:01 - Huh.
01:04:06 Huh.
01:04:13 - Does anything here
01:04:16 - No.
01:04:17 I assume it's stuff
01:04:22 or my mother.
01:04:25 But none of it means anything to me.
01:04:26 - Maybe it's the wrong trunk.
01:04:33 Oh.
01:04:34 Bryan, look at h...
01:04:38 What is it?
01:04:40 - Get it away.
01:04:45 - You mean...
01:04:46 - Get it away!
01:04:48 - All right.
01:04:49 Right.
01:04:50 - Bryan, it's away.
01:04:52 What is it?
01:04:57 - I don't know.
01:05:00 It moves, I think.
01:05:06 It floats through the house.
01:05:09 It does horrible things.
01:05:12 - What, the doll?
01:05:14 - It's not a doll.
01:05:20 [laughing]
01:05:27 I'm sorry.
01:05:29 It's just, did you see
01:05:30 when we found her hiding spot?
01:05:32 [laughing]
01:05:35 [toy bell rings]
01:05:37 [laughing]
01:05:38 Oh, God.
01:05:41 The look on her face was priceless.
01:05:45 It was absolutely priceless.
01:06:01 - Good morning.
01:06:03 Eggs, coffee?
01:06:09 - Coffee would be great.
01:06:12 - How'd you sleep?
01:06:13 - Oh, I slept like a baby,
01:06:17 a baby that's fearing crib death,
01:06:18 [chuckles]
01:06:25 I'm not crazy.
01:06:26 - I agree.
01:06:28 - What happened last night, I think,
01:06:30 is that I've been so sleep deprived
01:06:34 that when I mixed in the alcohol
01:06:36 I made myself unstable.
01:06:37 You know,
01:06:38 that insomnia alone can cause
01:06:41 - My God.
01:06:42 You are one diehard rationalist.
01:06:45 - Well, what the hell's the alternative?
01:06:46 Dolls come to life?
01:06:48 - No, they can be possessed.
01:06:50 - Oh, stop it.
01:06:52 - Bryan, you're not crazy.
01:06:55 You're not the type.
01:06:58 Something supernatural
01:07:00 And your episode last night,
01:07:02 I think it was some
01:07:05 - [scoffs]
01:07:06 - Don't scoff at what you don't know,
01:07:10 You witnessed something
01:07:14 And whatever is here,
01:07:15 maybe your mother
01:07:18 Give me one last chance
01:07:21 I can be back here tomorrow.
01:07:22 And if you need me,
01:07:25 - Tomorrow?
01:07:26 - Yeah.
01:07:27 - You expect me to spend another
01:07:29 I'm shaking at breakfast.
01:07:30 Bryan, if whatever is in this
01:07:33 it would have already.
01:07:36 - You're sure, huh?
01:07:38 - Oh, yeah.
01:07:40 Yeah.
01:07:41 [thunder crashing]
01:07:50 - Morning', Father.
01:07:51 Need a lift?
01:07:53 I have a question.
01:07:54 - Okay.
01:07:55 - Who's the woman at the house?
01:07:58 - You've been spying' on me?
01:08:00 - Yes, I have.
01:08:03 - She's a psychic.
01:08:04 She's been helping me remember
01:08:08 - You want to remember that place?
01:08:10 Come on in to the rectory.
01:08:14 What are you remembering?
01:08:15 - We lived there for a time.
01:08:16 My mother died there.
01:08:17 - Where did you find the psychic?
01:08:19 - It's more like she found me.
01:08:21 She heard that I saw something
01:08:23 - Hmm?
01:08:25 - I hallucinated something
01:08:31 I saw my mother.
01:08:34 She part assures me it's just
01:08:38 - You've been sleep deprived before.
01:08:40 Ever see anything?
01:08:41 - No.
01:08:43 - Well, that's interesting,
01:08:45 because I remember
01:08:48 - Pardon?
01:08:50 - Eight days after she was buried.
01:08:52 - Is that true?
01:08:54 - That time frightened you so badly
01:08:56 it led to a breakdown
01:08:57 and to them having to get you away
01:09:00 Your father sold it
01:09:03 and then bought the one up
01:09:05 - That's what happened.
01:09:07 - Of course,
01:09:10 until something happened to your uncle.
01:09:12 I don't know exactly what happened,
01:09:14 but he became thoroughly convinced
01:09:19 - The shrine in the closet.
01:09:21 - That was his.
01:09:22 - Your aunt thought he was a fool.
01:09:25 She was a skeptic like you.
01:09:27 But interestingly enough,
01:09:28 she couldn't bring herself
01:09:30 even after he died.
01:09:31 And then, in the last year of her life,
01:09:34 she began to believe it herself,
01:09:38 felt that it was angry at her
01:09:42 - This has a history?
01:09:44 - This has a history.
01:09:46 - What else do you know?
01:09:47 In the church,
01:09:50 You spoke of this evil presence.
01:09:51 - What did you mean?
01:09:55 - Have you ever wondered why you
01:10:00 - Because she died when I was five.
01:10:02 - Five-year-olds have memories,
01:10:04 unless they don't want to have memories,
01:10:07 unless they're bad memories,
01:10:09 unless they're memories
01:10:11 when they were terrified of darkness,
01:10:14 of being hit so hard with a curtain rod
01:10:18 of being half starved to death
01:10:20 because they forgot to say grace
01:10:23 - You're wrong, Father.
01:10:24 My mother was a good person.
01:10:26 - You've made her a good person
01:10:31 She was a monstrous person.
01:10:34 I knew her.
01:10:36 And some monstrous part of her
01:10:40 I would've told you earlier,
01:10:41 but everybody was so afraid
01:10:45 that you didn't remember.
01:10:46 [table rattling]
01:10:54 - Tell me something, Father.
01:10:56 These alleged abuses you talk of,
01:10:58 did you witness them firsthand
01:11:00 - No, they were relayed to me
01:11:03 - Then it's hearsay,
01:11:06 testimony of conduct
01:11:09 It's hearsay.
01:11:18 - No, you know what's rude?
01:11:20 A child having a liver lacerated
01:11:22 by a doctor who's hopped up
01:11:24 That's what's rude.
01:11:25 - That's not fair.
01:11:27 - Kid comes under your care.
01:11:28 You know this guy's history.
01:11:29 Have a conversation about how he
01:11:33 - No, Jennifer Burckhardt had
01:11:36 - I don't care who it was.
01:11:38 You were aware that he...
01:11:43 - [screaming]
01:11:44 No, no!
01:11:48 No, no!
01:11:49 [gavel bangs]
01:11:51 - You going to object to any of this?
01:12:03 - That's courthouse gossip.
01:12:04 - It's not.
01:12:06 - Hey, partner.
01:12:08 How you doing', buddy?
01:12:09 Listen, um, I was wondering' if
01:12:15 Hey.
01:12:17 Riley said you're acting'
01:12:19 What the hell is going' on
01:12:20 Huh?
01:12:21 And don't say "nothing'."
01:12:22 And don't say, "It's personal,"
01:12:24 "We don't go there,"
01:12:26 - You want to go there today, Sully?
01:12:27 Want me to open up?
01:12:28 Tell you everything?
01:12:29 - Yes, I do.
01:12:31 - I've been having' a little
01:12:33 since I started having these
01:12:35 of being severely abused as a child,
01:12:37 locked in a closet,
01:12:40 - What?
01:12:42 - And all this on no sleep.
01:12:43 Sheppard gave me some pills for it,
01:12:46 Except when you mix ' with scotch,
01:12:49 sort of enhance the scotch.
01:12:50 But no.
01:12:51 I can't concentrate on getting dressed,
01:12:54 And about the only thing keeping'
01:12:56 is a morbid curiosity
01:12:58 of where exactly it'll be
01:12:59 that I totally fucking' lose it.
01:13:04 So how do you like
01:13:09 the opening up thing?
01:13:14 - I like it better.
01:13:22 - Well, bless your heart, partner.
01:13:24 I think it rots.
01:13:30 - Hey.
01:13:32 What's happening'?
01:13:33 - Where is he?
01:13:34 - He's in the back, man,
01:13:36 - Thank you.
01:13:37 - Want a beer?
01:13:38 - Yes.
01:13:48 - I have an idea.
01:13:50 Why don't we go back
01:13:53 - I have a better idea.
01:13:54 Why don't you sit down
01:13:56 you've been keeping from me
01:13:57 and I won't sue you
01:14:00 - All right.
01:14:11 What have I been keeping?
01:14:12 - That I lived there
01:14:15 - True.
01:14:16 - And you let me go back
01:14:19 - You knew, Bryan.
01:14:20 Some part of you knew.
01:14:21 That's why you went back,
01:14:24 - And you're certain of this problem
01:14:29 - How do you mean?
01:14:30 - That I lost touch with reality
01:14:32 that I was so young and traumatized
01:14:34 that I couldn't grasp
01:14:37 So I blocked memories,
01:14:39 - Yes.
01:14:40 Something like that.
01:14:41 - And what if I told you
01:14:45 that you have totally
01:14:47 - Which is?
01:14:49 - That I am truly being haunted.
01:14:53 - You don't really believe that.
01:14:55 I am seeing things
01:14:57 and hearing things all the time.
01:15:00 You think I'm that crazy
01:15:03 - Yes, I think you're quite ill.
01:15:06 - You are wrong.
01:15:08 There's something supernatural
01:15:11 And I have all kinds of corroboration.
01:15:13 - Well, let's have it, Counsellors.
01:15:15 Let's try this thing.
01:15:21 - My Uncle Chester, to start with...
01:15:24 - Your Uncle Chester was a fool.
01:15:26 He was superstitious, gullible.
01:15:27 Did you know
01:15:28 he reported so many
01:15:31 the police wouldn't take
01:15:33 - No, I didn't.
01:15:36 But my aunt was no fool.
01:15:38 And in the last year of her life...
01:15:39 - The last year of her life,
01:15:41 she was suffering
01:15:44 due to advanced
01:15:47 I have people who will swear
01:15:49 - She was lucid part of the time.
01:15:51 That's how it works.
01:15:56 Father Wyoming at Saint...
01:15:58 - You're going to quote me a priest?
01:15:59 They think they're dealing
01:16:02 You want to stake your sanity on that?
01:16:08 - Do all kids who are abused
01:16:14 Or am I just weak?
01:16:15 - I don't think you're weak, Bryan.
01:16:17 I think you're carrying more.
01:16:20 - More.
01:16:23 - What is the last memory you
01:16:27 not including her death?
01:16:31 - My last memory.
01:16:33 Hmm.
01:16:38 She was cooking, I think,
01:16:40 - What was she cooking for?
01:16:43 - A picnic.
01:16:45 We were going on a picnic.
01:16:46 - Yes.
01:16:47 And what happened with the picnic?
01:16:51 - Well, I don't remember.
01:16:52 We wound up not going
01:16:54 - What was the reason?
01:16:57 - I don't know.
01:16:58 Maybe it rained.
01:16:59 - No, it didn't rain, Bryan.
01:17:01 It was a beautiful, sunny day.
01:17:03 - Then why didn't we go?
01:17:06 Because that morning,
01:17:10 you left a sock on the floor.
01:17:13 So instead of going on a picnic,
01:17:16 you were locked in the closet
01:17:20 and half the next.
01:17:31 - A red sock.
01:17:33 - Yes.
01:17:37 - I remember.
01:17:39 Hmm.
01:17:42 God, how sad is that?
01:17:44 - Sad?
01:17:45 It's infuriating, don't you think,
01:17:47 to be locked in the closet for a sock?
01:17:50 And you were angry, Bryan, very angry.
01:17:53 You wanted to lash back.
01:17:57 So you left some toys
01:18:04 on the stairs
01:18:05 near the top.
01:18:06 - What?
01:18:09 A toy truck
01:18:10 and an antique doll
01:18:14 You were five years old.
01:18:16 She had abused you for five years.
01:18:18 No one knew about it, no one.
01:18:26 - Mom, no!
01:18:27 [retching]
01:18:30 - Press up against my hand.
01:18:31 - Press up.
01:18:32 - Easy.
01:18:33 - What did I do?
01:18:40 - Any dizziness still?
01:18:42 - No.
01:18:43 I had to make a judgment call
01:18:46 You were in a form of crisis.
01:18:47 - I'm glad you told me.
01:18:49 - What are you going to do right now?
01:18:50 - I'm going to go check into
01:18:52 get my stuff
01:18:54 - That's exactly what you should do.
01:18:56 I'll call you later on.
01:18:57 We'll set something up
01:18:59 All right?
01:19:00 - That's what was wrong with her face.
01:19:02 - What's that?
01:19:03 - That's what was wrong
01:19:10 She was looking at me.
01:20:08 [phone ringing]
01:20:11 This is Bryan Becket.
01:20:12 Please leave a message.
01:20:13 Oases, it's Bryan.
01:20:14 Pick up.
01:20:18 What the hell are you still doing in there?
01:20:20 Didn't you tell me you had to leave?
01:20:23 Oases, pick up.
01:20:27 Oases.
01:20:30 Oases.
01:20:31 [answering machine beeps]
01:20:45 Oases?
01:20:47 Oases!
01:20:52 Oases?
01:21:15 [phone beeping]
01:21:30 - Hello?
01:21:31 - Oases?
01:21:32 - Bryan?
01:21:33 - Oases, where are you?
01:21:34 Why'd you leave your car here?
01:21:36 - I didn't.
01:21:37 - What are you talking about?
01:21:38 It's right out in the driveway.
01:21:46 - Bryan?
01:21:48 Bryan.
01:22:01 - Very good, Mother.
01:22:06 You got me back in.
01:22:11 Why?
01:22:14 Do you want to punish me again?
01:22:18 Is that it?
01:22:19 [crashing]
01:22:20 I'm not five anymore!
01:22:22 [screaming]
01:22:26 Come on!
01:22:29 Come on!
01:22:34 You know what you can do, Mother?
01:22:37 You can go straight to hell.
01:22:38 [crashing]
01:22:47 [screaming]
01:23:29 [clicking noise]
01:24:04 [wind whistling]
