Fractured (2015) Movie Script
1
In other news today,
The police have
found yet another unidentified
Body on the shores
of lake Michigan.
It had...
Authorities believe it
is the latest victim
Of a potential serial killer.
Michigan residents are urged
to remain vigilant
In the wake of
these senseless murders.
A witness to the latest attack
has been transported
To unity hospital
where she's undergoing...
...is said to be suffering
from psychological trauma.
The much anticipated
book, "fractured,"
By the acclaimed
Dr. Jason Ballard
Has shattered previous studies
In the field of psychoanalysis.
If anyone can reach her,
it's Dr. Ballard.
He's highly skilled
in cases of this nature.
Police still have no
leads at this hour in the hunt
Tension is rising in this
normally sleepy neighborhood
As police discover
a new crime scene.
In a surprise move, Detroit
P.D. Has assigned detective
James Harding as lead
investigator in the case.
Harding's troubled history
has been well documented.
I'm close.
I'm real close.
I need to redeem myself.
Police have arrived on
scene and are scouring the area,
Going door to door
searching for clues.
In a shocking turn of events,
police now believe witness,
May Oster, could be
withholding information
Related to the series...
That may hold the key to
the killer's identity.
Crisis, returning a patient...
Miss, hi.
I'm, uh, I'm looking
for a Dr. Ballard.
Upstairs.
Thank you.
Upstairs.
I had him on the lithium.
He's having a weird
reaction to...
I think because he is
a valium addict.
I'm looking for
a Dr. Ballard.
Yes.
...have Anderson moved
if I can.
If this is about
the book signing,
Leave your home address.
I'll have my office mail you
a signed copy, okay?
It isn't.
Um, I'm detective James
Harding with the Detroit P.D.
I have a couple questions for
you about one of your patients.
Excuse me.
All right. Let's head
across the hall.
Was there anything mentioned,
anything suspicious?
Anything suspicious?
Doctor/patient conversations
are confidential.
I would need to see
a court order
Before I could really help.
Court order, all right.
Patients with extreme conditions
are confined for their own
Protection, detective.
Protection.
They suffer from
a multitude of conditions.
I would know.
Been after this one for a while
and I want some closure.
You look perturbed.
You okay?
Yeah, I'm fine, thanks.
Nurse, will you escort detective
Harding to the seclusion room?
Yes, doctor.
And detective Harding,
please don't upset anybody.
Thank you.
They say sue
Fell off the bridge.
And you came in...
Hello.
And I didn't see.
I had no...
I'm living
In a dark story
that I can't escape.
You're late, detective.
I'm late.
You're late.
What...
What am I late for?
You're late, late, late,
For your end.
Your end.
For your end.
I'm sorry. Sorry.
Have you seen this man?
Um...
the jackal knows about them.
Yep, jackal.
The jackal knows.
About them?
Mm-Hmm. Yep.
You mean there are others?
Yes.
I don't have that in here.
Who is the jackal?
You've got to get
out of here, okay?
Just leave.
Get out of here, why?
Before it happens
to you, get out.
Just go.
Before what happens?
Just go.
Calm down and it's okay.
I'm... I'm... Can you just
tell me what you know?
Nobody's gonna hurt you.
I can't.
I promise.
I can't. I can't.
He's gonna kill me.
I promise nobody's
gonna hurt you.
I'm... I'm with the police.
Okay.
She was at the apartment
when it started.
She met a man that altered
our entire existence.
Life became a dream.
You know how I said
I'll be busy later?
Yeah.
Well, I'll be busy
making you dinner.
All right.
May?
May Oster?
What time did
you see her leave the building?
May!
May!
All right, I'm coming in.
Hello?
Hi.
You okay?
Wh... Wh... What happened?
Something wrong?
Where am I?
Oh, baby, you blacked out again.
Dr. Ballard.
Yes, good.
See, things are coming
back to you.
Oh, baby.
We spoke before
Many times.
You remember Maria?
She helps us around here.
Hi.
See, she remembers you.
Thanks, baby.
And so does my wife, Barbara.
Barbara?
Mm-Hmm.
Barbara.
Blacked out again?
Yeah.
That's goblin making sure
we don't ignore him.
I don't recall speaking
to any of you.
Oh, baby, let me see
your right hand.
No more trembling.
Oh, that's great.
Ought to be fine for the night.
The night?
May?
I want to go home.
You are home.
That's preposterous.
I'm not at home.
See for yourself.
Look at this.
These are your clothes.
There's a picture of you.
And over here is something
you're very proud of.
Here's your tennis
trophy, remember?
My boyfriend.
Your boyfriend.
I need to call him.
No, baby, you've been dreaming.
That's a hallucination.
Take two of these and
everything will be great.
How did I end up here?
Well, you were disoriented when the
medics brought you to the hospital.
After conducting several tests,
It was apparent
your case is unique.
To better understand
your condition,
It was in your best interest
to bring you here
And to monitor your condition.
You've been here
for three weeks.
Three weeks?
Mm-Hmm.
Some medic...
You tried to commit suicide.
That's... That's absurd.
I'm...
it's all right.
You'll be all right now.
First day of therapy
today, okay?
Therapy?
Yeah. That's where you'll
meet all the others.
So there are more?
This...
Dr. Ballard...
do you think I'll try
to kill myself again?
That's what we're here
to find out.
Have to check on goblin.
Feeling better, may?
Um, yeah.
This is Bella.
And with the flag, that's Gina.
And this, with the book
there, is Mattie.
Okay, ladies.
May is now part of our group.
Her case only adds
to the diversity...
Dr. Ballard, why don't
you be frank
In saying that, I don't feel
too comfortable around
Fresh sickos.
Your choice is like your
taste in decorating.
It stinks.
Barbara won't like that.
Okay, we're here to break ground
in the field of psychoanalysis.
I think you're making a fool
of yourself professionally.
Don't be rude, okay?
Bizarre.
Bizarre, noted.
I only do this type of therapy on
patients that are special to me.
And we're so flattered.
May's case only helped
the group understand
The complexities and problems
that face young women.
No need for insecurity.
Not insecurity,
Dr. Ballard.
I take offense to that.
I remember when Mattie first
joined how you both reacted.
Am I right, Bella?
I'm fine with it as long as she
understands we have seniority.
On the contrary,
you all can be her peers.
That's fine, I guess.
As long as she understands
we're not gonna be friends.
Now, let's talk about a problem
that faces women these days.
During our last session,
Mattie, you said...
You said, men are thorns.
Men are the problem, period.
I blame them for my jealousy,
my insecurity, my loneliness.
The reason I masturbate so much.
I believe that stems from hate,
a result of phobia,
When negative past experience
with the opposite sex
May lead to mistrust, blame,
Even fear.
I think may is going to be a
catalyst for successful research.
I really do.
Yeah, congrats, fuck head,
you're the chosen one.
Makes you a target.
Mattie.
Did you do something bad?
Gina, that's enough.
May, it's gonna be okay.
Paranoid, soon fear.
One more comment.
You can go to hell!
Want to be relocated?
Didn't think so.
I can't do this.
Okay. We are done for today.
Hey, look.
Hey, you shouldn't
have stormed out like that.
Place me in another group.
I can't handle their
whole macho hostility thing.
You look so worried.
Is there something
you're not telling me?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I think that I did try
to kill myself.
Okay.
And why did you try
to kill yourself?
I had this...
I may have done
something terrible,
Something so...
take two of these.
Look, you're new.
They were threatened.
They just have to get
to know you, that's all.
It'll all be fine.
In time, it'll work out.
Trust me.
Hey, look, I'm on
call at the hospital tonight.
If you need me for anything,
just dial this number, okay?
I don't think I can trust you.
Barbara is a trained nurse.
She's worked with me many times
in these kind of situations.
Okay.
Okay.
So... So what are
you up to today?
I may drop
by the market. Why?
Just asking.
Who is this?
Hello?
I miss you.
What have you done, may?
What's going on?
What are you guys doing?
Gina, you don't have to do this.
Just put the gun down!
Gina!
Gina, put it down.
End it this week.
You said you'd do it.
That was the plan.
Don't worry.
I'll take care of her.
Shit.
Come on.
Where is she?
I saw her going upstairs.
So did she make the call?
No.
Why?
The doctor would brush it off
As one of her blackout episodes.
And Barbara, she was
just suspicious of her.
Yeah.
But she seemed sweet on her.
Decent.
Jackals aren't decent.
Ladies.
Ooh, let's get started,
shall we?
Everybody getting to know
one another this morning?
Now, this group will
benefit once we find
And contain
everyone's individual...
What's the word I want?
Problem?
Conflict?
Confusion?
That being said,
I hope you all understand
I'll be reminding each of
you of events
You may have wanted to suppress.
So... may?
Tell us more about your past.
Perhaps about a pet, a friend,
Maybe a boy.
I don't want to talk
about that today.
Regression is understandable
at this point.
Ladies, it's not my intention
to present anything
Malicious about any of you.
That's fine, may.
You don't want to talk.
I understand.
How about Gina?
Oh, the pressure.
No pressure.
Um...
I, um...
taught history.
At the time, I desired
to remove myself
From the dark despair
that encompassed my life.
And Europe became my euphoria.
I was a bare canvas searching
for my own colored life.
Suddenly, I became alive.
I met a brilliant student.
You should've seen this guy.
You... You married him,
didn't you, Gina?
Yeah.
Several years
in the marriage, though...
he changed.
As people tend to do.
We relocated after I discovered
A great job
at a local university.
We needed to escape our former
life to reinvent our relationship.
And, as time eclipsed,
We became happier
than we'd ever been.
It was as if we drifted
out of time once again.
Gina, you up?
What are you doing?
Wait, what are you doing?
Stop, what are you doing?
Stop.
Who was it this time?
Stop.
I gave you everything.
I gave you my heart.
Don't, don't!
I said, don't, all right?
It's late.
I'm going to bed, all right?
You should, too.
No more beds, Marcel.
What are you...
Get off me, Jesus!
Get off of me.
What the fuck?
You crazy bitch.
You bit my face!
Oh, my god!
Don't do this to us, all right?
Came too far for this.
One damp Sunday afternoon,
I roused out of my happiness
And into my current misery.
I received a call.
His slashed body was
at the bank of a river
Six blocks from our apartment.
To this day, the... The police
never found the killer.
I am so sorry
to hear that, Gina.
Okay. Let's call it
a night, huh, girls?
I'm watching you, may.
May?
May.
Oh, baby.
Oh, honey.
It's just a bad dream.
That's all it is.
Come here.
Oh, baby, okay, look at me.
Here, follow my light.
Follow the light.
Okay, good.
What's happening to me?
You're a young woman full an
emotion of life's disappointments.
Past situations
muddle your consciousness.
It's nerves, may.
It's nerves, baby.
Here, here you go.
This will make you feel better.
No more pills, please, please.
They already dug your grave.
Get some rest, babe.
Come on, baby.
Pick up, pick up...
Looking for something?
Uh, just, um,
a good magazine, actually.
Your credibility just died.
I'm just gonna...
sit.
I've often contemplated
the similarity
Of fear and desire.
You don't fear desire, Barbara.
You shouldn't either.
Friends?
That can work.
But without fear.
Are you ready?
For what?
For that match.
Oh, okay.
10 minutes.
What do you think you're doing?
I'm just playing tennis, Gina.
Geez.
Getting comfy?
What?
Fooling us with that face,
one sly piece of shit.
You should be a
motivational speaker, Gina.
Doesn't she make you feel
right at home, may?
What'd you do after the game?
Go out for a drink?
One cannot deny
the existence of hell.
What do you mean?
It means I'm gonna
make you live in it.
Ladies.
Bella.
It's your turn today.
We're gonna cover you.
Whenever you're ready, darling.
Um, what can I say about him?
He had the kind of face
you just wanted to caress.
There was a childlike persona
about him that was magnetic.
He was spontaneous,
free, and uninhibited.
His playful spirit lured
the child inside of me
And this liberated atmosphere
propelled my desire to write.
It seemed as though
he created the illusion
I required in this world
of disappointment.
Nothing is worse
than broken dreams.
He went to Yale
to study English.
Ivy league dick.
I joined the navy
to win him back.
There was a party.
I went to see him.
Hi, honey, how are you?
What's wrong?
Brad, what are you doing?
That's what I got
serving my country.
A homecoming party.
What was odd is when he got
his degree,
He came back.
And I took him in.
And you took him back?
Ever orgasm with every fuck?
He did that over and over,
Again and again.
Write that man down.
Own it.
I surrendered to brad and
everything went back to normal.
I doubt any couple were happier
than we were at that time.
We're not working out.
I want to move on, leave.
It was the greatest
chapter of my existence.
It was as if I had lived an
entire life in that moment
Because I worshipped
every second of it.
But I guess there is
a time to die.
I adored him.
I adored him.
I adored him.
He couldn't face the whole
reality of being poor.
He took some pills.
I found him in our tub.
I was called to serve
in other wars.
Being a hero is not all
it's hyped up to be.
Did you try writing again?
I wrote because of him.
Ladies, let's call it a night.
You did it and got away with it.
Marcel.
I'd watch your back.
Quiet!
Bella.
You have to make a move.
What?
They're in here.
What the hell
are you talking about?
You have to make
a run for it, may.
And if you don't get through,
you have to just keep going.
Just keep going.
Shit.
Gina, don't!
Please god!
Do her, Gina!
She's gonna keep her mouth shut.
Isn't that right, may?
She's lying.
No, no, Gina.
No, I won't say anything.
I won't say anything.
Gina, Gina, no, Gina, no.
Look at her, Gina.
She can't hide from us.
It's gonna be okay, may.
Good people are
the first to die.
So tired, may.
Lonely, worried.
You're in on it.
Don't.
I should call the police.
Listen to yourself.
You saw them.
There was no one there, may.
Telling Jason or the police
will make you look foolish.
I heard you on the phone.
You said, I'll take care of
her and end it this week.
What are you talking about?
Human blood.
Not exactly a storm in a teacup
type of a thing, is it?
Hiding something, may?
Secrets protect us both.
You saw nothing,
you heard nothing, clear?
Take your pills.
Goodnight.
Uh, how did they... How did
they get into the house?
Barbara gave them
a key... A key.
They were... They
were watching.
They stalked may like wild dogs.
So did, uh,
May... tell the doctor?
Oh, it was difficult for her.
She was given pills
to make her more manageable.
Going somewhere?
Barbara.
There's no nobility
in innocence, may.
I don't feel that way about you.
I'm sorry.
You loved him and you
chose to kill him.
I love him.
I couldn't have killed him.
Couldn't?
You're unsure.
It was in the news, may.
Body found in the lake
Was the one missing
from the apartment.
You're lying.
And you're so sane, right?
Therapy will do
you good, Barbara.
Don't fuck with me.
I'm your genetic superior
With your suspicious
bloody scarf.
I'm watching you.
Kiss me now.
You saw nothing.
You heard nothing.
Understand?
I saw and heard enough.
You better back off my shit,
Or I'm gonna get that 12-Gauge,
I'm gonna fucking dust your ass.
Sleep is your enemy.
Ladies.
May, you okay?
Yeah.
Good, let's move on.
Mattie, it is your turn.
Tell us why you are here.
I don't want to remember.
I'm sorry. You want to pick
on someone else?
Mattie, we are all here for you.
Go on.
I loved tuning pianos.
I was a piano tuner.
You'll go from schools
to colleges and...
the piano is an
instrumental force
In invoking a sense of love.
But as it turns out,
being content wasn't enough.
When he smiled at me,
It was perfect.
I forgot the world.
I knew then how lonely I was.
It's beautiful.
I teach, also.
Classical mostly.
I wish I could play like that.
Let me teach you.
Really?
It'd be my pleasure.
Okay.
Start with C there.
Okay.
Good. Good.
You make it difficult
to concentrate.
Sorry. Well, let's try
this one, then.
He was absolutely
beautiful like that,
Like the music he played.
Magnificent.
I didn't want
to leave that moment.
I felt a fervent pull
toward this man.
A tune in both of our
souls joined harmoniously.
And just like that,
I was teaching him.
It was beautiful having
him sitting next to me.
We lost ourselves in the music.
I didn't want him to forget me
So I focused on teaching him.
In the end, he became
a remarkable pianist.
I wanted him to be
better than me.
Sly bitch.
It was the most beautiful
music I had ever heard.
In the end, he got it, playing.
I wanted to marry him.
I wanted him to remain
inside my heart.
The music he played
filled my veins with a...
A deep, wet current.
It's beautiful.
What's it for?
Sit with me.
It's for bringing
that old piano back to life.
Sell me your piano.
Why?
So you'll have a reason
to come play with me.
He was mesmerizing,
Adorable,
Watching him play, time halted.
Everything I thought I knew
about passion subsided.
I could stare at him
every minute of every day.
Unfortunately, that feeling
came to a sudden crash.
He was involved in a drug deal
that went terribly wrong.
A motorcycle gang threw
his live body off a bridge.
His remains were
found six days later
Washed up on shore.
You can't imagine
what that did to me.
He was a douche.
Don't be harsh.
Elitist snot.
That's enough, Mattie.
Annoying twit.
She'll be back
If she knows
what's good for her.
Things have changed,
haven't they?
What do you mean?
Join us.
For what?
Dummy, when he's done with us,
He's making sure
we're all locked up.
Ballard's insurance plan
is nifty.
This is just all so wrong.
Yeah, listen, nobody here
in particular likes you.
You can change that.
You're all hookers.
Oh, I don't understand.
May.
I saw nothing.
I heard nothing.
I saw nothing.
I heard nothing.
I saw nothing.
I heard nothing.
Ow!
You know, I can have
her any time I want.
If you had anything going
for you, Gina,
Why would she come on to me?
You guys, as of today,
Little May's in
as deep as we are.
So, um, you try going
to the police,
We'll accuse you of being
part of the plan.
Tell me, may, do you
think I'm a murderer?
Don't you dare lie.
I think that
You all killed your men
And you got away with it.
Wow. You're micromanagement
skills are impressive.
Now, for sure, you're one of us.
I'm on my own.
Well, welcome to hell.
Oh, no.
Oops.
Hey, girls, help me carry her.
She blacked out again.
Here we go.
Got her feet?
Here we go.
Why don't you stop dicking
around with her, huh?
Make me.
Stick to the plan, bitch!
Gina, no!
What the hell?
Get up!
What are you doing?
Did you see them?
Who?
They were... They
were right here.
I don't think I believe you.
Call the police.
No, no, no!
Do not call the police.
They already know
everything, okay?
Do not call the police.
I don't understand.
My work, it's not complete.
Screw your book.
Our lives are in danger.
You've got to believe
in what I'm doing.
I don't know who to believe.
May!
Mattie!
She's had enough.
Go inside the house.
Make sure we're alone.
You're not gonna scream
some more, are you?
What? What?
Gag her!
Let's bury her...
alive.
Think for a minute, you fool,
Was any of us all meeting
a coincidence?
All of us in this
fucking shit house.
He knew you killed
your lover all along.
I didn't kill anyone.
He brought you in for depth
for his fucking research.
He's a sick shit.
He knows we all killed our men.
He's gonna turn us all in,
including you.
He doesn't give a shit about us.
It's payback time.
He's done with.
Now, before I drop your ass,
are you in or out?
What?
Okay, okay.
Okay, what?
I'm in.
It goes down tomorrow.
I like that, Bella.
It's progress.
All right, may.
I believe it's
your turn to share.
Has there ever been
a boy in your life?
May?
May.
It was Christmas when
he brought me to his cafe.
He was lonely, just like me,
But he held himself
with dignity.
He had nothing to drink but tea.
But we drank for hours,
just looking at each other.
And he winked at me.
He smiled so softly
that it went right through me
And out the other side.
The softness in his voice
struck me immediately.
It was the voice
I had prayed for.
It was like a whispering,
but deeper,
Like the sound of
a breeze playing over
The open end of a glass bottle.
A light was ignited in my soul.
I knew only a fool would
let this slip away.
Beautiful.
I'm still trying to recover
from that moment.
It was like a...
A childhood song,
just unforgettable.
So what happened?
I kept going back,
More tea, and he kept smiling.
His words melted on his lips.
The type of love we
shared only happens once.
And when he touched my face,
my mind melted
With the thought of him.
I wanted to wake up
next to him forever.
May, get up.
I woke up with butterflies
in my stomach.
So how'd you get the bugger?
It was perfect?
I couldn't have asked for more.
We started going
to his favorite places.
It was thrilling.
A charge of bliss
surged through me.
We found poetry in the islands.
My eyes, once opaque, were
suddenly colored bright,
In a hue of beaming happiness.
He awakened a vision of a new
world and ultimately a new me.
I found myself falling.
Christmas doesn't last forever.
Then what?
There's voices.
These damn voices.
Playing with my head when...
when he spoke to another woman.
Jealousy is normal.
This wasn't jealousy.
I was possessive.
Very.
My heart fell those 20 floors.
Was it him?
May?
May?
I was supposed to make
him dinner that night
And I woke up with guilt.
You filthy slut.
Aah!
She took him from me!
Stop it, stop it, stop it.
Sit.
All right, girls,
out of the room.
Out of the room.
You stay. You sit.
Girls, out of the room.
Out of the room!
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
How fast can you move, Gina?
You planned this and
those pills you give me.
I want you to calm
down right now.
I have to know how you girls
reactor I can't help you.
It's simple.
Dr. Ballard, I think
I killed my boyfriend.
Oh, baby.
Do the police know what I did?
They do.
And you knew about him and
the scarf this entire time?
Oh, yeah.
I protected you from them.
Look, I'm sending them back
to the psych ward.
Now, you can go with them
or you can go to prison.
There has to be closure.
I can't... I can't
believe I killed him.
Every man's got
a breaking point.
Oh, my god.
Gina!
Get off!
Get off of me!
Oh, my god.
Oh, my god.
I told you I was
on top of things.
No. Stop it.
A man has urges, you know.
Mine are a little different.
Mine require very,
very sharp, sharp blades.
I'd close my eyes if I were you.
So she managed
to survive somehow.
I woke up in here.
And soon, they'll sedate
them with those pills.
Save yourself.
So she, um, she talks in
that third person, huh?
Oh, may Oster has many
friends in her head.
The difference between
this book and the others
Is this is a complete
analogy on may.
Patients like her help us break new
ground in the study of psychotherapy.
Yeah.
Oh, your signed copy.
Thank you.
Poor girl.
Thinks she's a famous writer,
won a Pulitzer prize
And a tennis champion.
And she's been here for,
um, three weeks?
Yeah.
Her schizophrenia reflects
a unique case
Of false fixed belief,
Cause and response
to three issues.
Auditory, commanding,
and visual hallucinations.
May Oster, who calls
herself Bella Mostow,
Mattie Todd and Gina stamp
Thinks she was married
to brad, lance, and Marcel.
Yeah.
So she must've had a very traumatic
experience at some point.
Oh, yeah.
Resulting in her multiple
visual hallucinations.
May created quite a world for
herself after she got here.
So may is her
dormant personality.
Yeah.
She misrepresents
every external stimuli
And interprets all
images and sound into fantasy,
Inventing stories using her past
And present interactions.
Yeah.
Have you seen them?
May, may, may, may, may,
sit down, baby.
There you go.
It's okay. It's okay.
When she's caught
beating herself,
In her mind she was imagining
it was them beating her.
But in reality, of course,
she's beating herself.
And once, she tried to choke me.
That's why she has
on the jacket.
The jacket.
The jacket.
She mentioned, um, the jackal.
Is that something
you know about?
Who knows, right?
Her post traumatic
stress disorder
And manic depression are
a direct result
Of abandonment by her mom.
The, um, the skin we found
underneath the dead body's
Fingernails matched her DNA.
So she killed him.
Hence, the jackal.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, the gloves
that we found next to the body
Are a bit of a concern.
The evidence found
underneath the fingernails
Could've been planted.
And not to mention the fact
That she hasn't ever confessed
to killing anybody.
Foul play could
still be involved.
We're waiting on
the forensics of the gloves
To get back from the lab.
But the real question is,
where is that white scarf?
What? Why are you looking
at me like that?
Heh.
I made a few calls.
You were suspended twice
from your duties.
Disciplinary action.
D.U.I., Probation.
Are you still on probation?
I am in the middle of a case
right now and I'm very close.
Is that a fact?
Are you covering
something up, detective?
What makes you think that?
I should call the police,
but I won't.
Get out.
Don't.
Detective?
The lies I've told
Are to cover the truths
I've lived.
The person at the lake was
a patient that escaped.
And the jackal killed him.
Detective!
And soon enough, I knew why.
That's enough, detective.
The doctor pins murders
on his patients
We're done here.
Let's go.
And he uses the pills to make
us feel like we're guilty.
Save me.
May?
I was him.
How can I compete with your boy?
Stop flirting with the sickos.
You hurry up.
We have a tennis match.
Make sure you tell them,
Detective, about him.
Still going on about that?
Time for your rest, may.
Unh-Unh. Unh-Unh.
Not today, not today, Barbara.
Okay.
Just today.
I love you, may.
Yes, Dr. Ballard?
Barbara, I'll be out of town
for almost a week.
I have a patient
I have to bring in.
Make sure that may
takes her medication.
For sure, Dr. Ballard.
You saw nothing.
You heard nothing.
Goblin, do you think
he'll visit today?
We found poetry in the islands.
My eyes, once opaque,
were suddenly colored bright
In a hue of beaming happiness.
He awakened a vision of a new
world and ultimately a new me.
In other news today,
The police have
found yet another unidentified
Body on the shores
of lake Michigan.
It had...
Authorities believe it
is the latest victim
Of a potential serial killer.
Michigan residents are urged
to remain vigilant
In the wake of
these senseless murders.
A witness to the latest attack
has been transported
To unity hospital
where she's undergoing...
...is said to be suffering
from psychological trauma.
The much anticipated
book, "fractured,"
By the acclaimed
Dr. Jason Ballard
Has shattered previous studies
In the field of psychoanalysis.
If anyone can reach her,
it's Dr. Ballard.
He's highly skilled
in cases of this nature.
Police still have no
leads at this hour in the hunt
Tension is rising in this
normally sleepy neighborhood
As police discover
a new crime scene.
In a surprise move, Detroit
P.D. Has assigned detective
James Harding as lead
investigator in the case.
Harding's troubled history
has been well documented.
I'm close.
I'm real close.
I need to redeem myself.
Police have arrived on
scene and are scouring the area,
Going door to door
searching for clues.
In a shocking turn of events,
police now believe witness,
May Oster, could be
withholding information
Related to the series...
That may hold the key to
the killer's identity.
Crisis, returning a patient...
Miss, hi.
I'm, uh, I'm looking
for a Dr. Ballard.
Upstairs.
Thank you.
Upstairs.
I had him on the lithium.
He's having a weird
reaction to...
I think because he is
a valium addict.
I'm looking for
a Dr. Ballard.
Yes.
...have Anderson moved
if I can.
If this is about
the book signing,
Leave your home address.
I'll have my office mail you
a signed copy, okay?
It isn't.
Um, I'm detective James
Harding with the Detroit P.D.
I have a couple questions for
you about one of your patients.
Excuse me.
All right. Let's head
across the hall.
Was there anything mentioned,
anything suspicious?
Anything suspicious?
Doctor/patient conversations
are confidential.
I would need to see
a court order
Before I could really help.
Court order, all right.
Patients with extreme conditions
are confined for their own
Protection, detective.
Protection.
They suffer from
a multitude of conditions.
I would know.
Been after this one for a while
and I want some closure.
You look perturbed.
You okay?
Yeah, I'm fine, thanks.
Nurse, will you escort detective
Harding to the seclusion room?
Yes, doctor.
And detective Harding,
please don't upset anybody.
Thank you.
They say sue
Fell off the bridge.
And you came in...
Hello.
And I didn't see.
I had no...
I'm living
In a dark story
that I can't escape.
You're late, detective.
I'm late.
You're late.
What...
What am I late for?
You're late, late, late,
For your end.
Your end.
For your end.
I'm sorry. Sorry.
Have you seen this man?
Um...
the jackal knows about them.
Yep, jackal.
The jackal knows.
About them?
Mm-Hmm. Yep.
You mean there are others?
Yes.
I don't have that in here.
Who is the jackal?
You've got to get
out of here, okay?
Just leave.
Get out of here, why?
Before it happens
to you, get out.
Just go.
Before what happens?
Just go.
Calm down and it's okay.
I'm... I'm... Can you just
tell me what you know?
Nobody's gonna hurt you.
I can't.
I promise.
I can't. I can't.
He's gonna kill me.
I promise nobody's
gonna hurt you.
I'm... I'm with the police.
Okay.
She was at the apartment
when it started.
She met a man that altered
our entire existence.
Life became a dream.
You know how I said
I'll be busy later?
Yeah.
Well, I'll be busy
making you dinner.
All right.
May?
May Oster?
What time did
you see her leave the building?
May!
May!
All right, I'm coming in.
Hello?
Hi.
You okay?
Wh... Wh... What happened?
Something wrong?
Where am I?
Oh, baby, you blacked out again.
Dr. Ballard.
Yes, good.
See, things are coming
back to you.
Oh, baby.
We spoke before
Many times.
You remember Maria?
She helps us around here.
Hi.
See, she remembers you.
Thanks, baby.
And so does my wife, Barbara.
Barbara?
Mm-Hmm.
Barbara.
Blacked out again?
Yeah.
That's goblin making sure
we don't ignore him.
I don't recall speaking
to any of you.
Oh, baby, let me see
your right hand.
No more trembling.
Oh, that's great.
Ought to be fine for the night.
The night?
May?
I want to go home.
You are home.
That's preposterous.
I'm not at home.
See for yourself.
Look at this.
These are your clothes.
There's a picture of you.
And over here is something
you're very proud of.
Here's your tennis
trophy, remember?
My boyfriend.
Your boyfriend.
I need to call him.
No, baby, you've been dreaming.
That's a hallucination.
Take two of these and
everything will be great.
How did I end up here?
Well, you were disoriented when the
medics brought you to the hospital.
After conducting several tests,
It was apparent
your case is unique.
To better understand
your condition,
It was in your best interest
to bring you here
And to monitor your condition.
You've been here
for three weeks.
Three weeks?
Mm-Hmm.
Some medic...
You tried to commit suicide.
That's... That's absurd.
I'm...
it's all right.
You'll be all right now.
First day of therapy
today, okay?
Therapy?
Yeah. That's where you'll
meet all the others.
So there are more?
This...
Dr. Ballard...
do you think I'll try
to kill myself again?
That's what we're here
to find out.
Have to check on goblin.
Feeling better, may?
Um, yeah.
This is Bella.
And with the flag, that's Gina.
And this, with the book
there, is Mattie.
Okay, ladies.
May is now part of our group.
Her case only adds
to the diversity...
Dr. Ballard, why don't
you be frank
In saying that, I don't feel
too comfortable around
Fresh sickos.
Your choice is like your
taste in decorating.
It stinks.
Barbara won't like that.
Okay, we're here to break ground
in the field of psychoanalysis.
I think you're making a fool
of yourself professionally.
Don't be rude, okay?
Bizarre.
Bizarre, noted.
I only do this type of therapy on
patients that are special to me.
And we're so flattered.
May's case only helped
the group understand
The complexities and problems
that face young women.
No need for insecurity.
Not insecurity,
Dr. Ballard.
I take offense to that.
I remember when Mattie first
joined how you both reacted.
Am I right, Bella?
I'm fine with it as long as she
understands we have seniority.
On the contrary,
you all can be her peers.
That's fine, I guess.
As long as she understands
we're not gonna be friends.
Now, let's talk about a problem
that faces women these days.
During our last session,
Mattie, you said...
You said, men are thorns.
Men are the problem, period.
I blame them for my jealousy,
my insecurity, my loneliness.
The reason I masturbate so much.
I believe that stems from hate,
a result of phobia,
When negative past experience
with the opposite sex
May lead to mistrust, blame,
Even fear.
I think may is going to be a
catalyst for successful research.
I really do.
Yeah, congrats, fuck head,
you're the chosen one.
Makes you a target.
Mattie.
Did you do something bad?
Gina, that's enough.
May, it's gonna be okay.
Paranoid, soon fear.
One more comment.
You can go to hell!
Want to be relocated?
Didn't think so.
I can't do this.
Okay. We are done for today.
Hey, look.
Hey, you shouldn't
have stormed out like that.
Place me in another group.
I can't handle their
whole macho hostility thing.
You look so worried.
Is there something
you're not telling me?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I think that I did try
to kill myself.
Okay.
And why did you try
to kill yourself?
I had this...
I may have done
something terrible,
Something so...
take two of these.
Look, you're new.
They were threatened.
They just have to get
to know you, that's all.
It'll all be fine.
In time, it'll work out.
Trust me.
Hey, look, I'm on
call at the hospital tonight.
If you need me for anything,
just dial this number, okay?
I don't think I can trust you.
Barbara is a trained nurse.
She's worked with me many times
in these kind of situations.
Okay.
Okay.
So... So what are
you up to today?
I may drop
by the market. Why?
Just asking.
Who is this?
Hello?
I miss you.
What have you done, may?
What's going on?
What are you guys doing?
Gina, you don't have to do this.
Just put the gun down!
Gina!
Gina, put it down.
End it this week.
You said you'd do it.
That was the plan.
Don't worry.
I'll take care of her.
Shit.
Come on.
Where is she?
I saw her going upstairs.
So did she make the call?
No.
Why?
The doctor would brush it off
As one of her blackout episodes.
And Barbara, she was
just suspicious of her.
Yeah.
But she seemed sweet on her.
Decent.
Jackals aren't decent.
Ladies.
Ooh, let's get started,
shall we?
Everybody getting to know
one another this morning?
Now, this group will
benefit once we find
And contain
everyone's individual...
What's the word I want?
Problem?
Conflict?
Confusion?
That being said,
I hope you all understand
I'll be reminding each of
you of events
You may have wanted to suppress.
So... may?
Tell us more about your past.
Perhaps about a pet, a friend,
Maybe a boy.
I don't want to talk
about that today.
Regression is understandable
at this point.
Ladies, it's not my intention
to present anything
Malicious about any of you.
That's fine, may.
You don't want to talk.
I understand.
How about Gina?
Oh, the pressure.
No pressure.
Um...
I, um...
taught history.
At the time, I desired
to remove myself
From the dark despair
that encompassed my life.
And Europe became my euphoria.
I was a bare canvas searching
for my own colored life.
Suddenly, I became alive.
I met a brilliant student.
You should've seen this guy.
You... You married him,
didn't you, Gina?
Yeah.
Several years
in the marriage, though...
he changed.
As people tend to do.
We relocated after I discovered
A great job
at a local university.
We needed to escape our former
life to reinvent our relationship.
And, as time eclipsed,
We became happier
than we'd ever been.
It was as if we drifted
out of time once again.
Gina, you up?
What are you doing?
Wait, what are you doing?
Stop, what are you doing?
Stop.
Who was it this time?
Stop.
I gave you everything.
I gave you my heart.
Don't, don't!
I said, don't, all right?
It's late.
I'm going to bed, all right?
You should, too.
No more beds, Marcel.
What are you...
Get off me, Jesus!
Get off of me.
What the fuck?
You crazy bitch.
You bit my face!
Oh, my god!
Don't do this to us, all right?
Came too far for this.
One damp Sunday afternoon,
I roused out of my happiness
And into my current misery.
I received a call.
His slashed body was
at the bank of a river
Six blocks from our apartment.
To this day, the... The police
never found the killer.
I am so sorry
to hear that, Gina.
Okay. Let's call it
a night, huh, girls?
I'm watching you, may.
May?
May.
Oh, baby.
Oh, honey.
It's just a bad dream.
That's all it is.
Come here.
Oh, baby, okay, look at me.
Here, follow my light.
Follow the light.
Okay, good.
What's happening to me?
You're a young woman full an
emotion of life's disappointments.
Past situations
muddle your consciousness.
It's nerves, may.
It's nerves, baby.
Here, here you go.
This will make you feel better.
No more pills, please, please.
They already dug your grave.
Get some rest, babe.
Come on, baby.
Pick up, pick up...
Looking for something?
Uh, just, um,
a good magazine, actually.
Your credibility just died.
I'm just gonna...
sit.
I've often contemplated
the similarity
Of fear and desire.
You don't fear desire, Barbara.
You shouldn't either.
Friends?
That can work.
But without fear.
Are you ready?
For what?
For that match.
Oh, okay.
10 minutes.
What do you think you're doing?
I'm just playing tennis, Gina.
Geez.
Getting comfy?
What?
Fooling us with that face,
one sly piece of shit.
You should be a
motivational speaker, Gina.
Doesn't she make you feel
right at home, may?
What'd you do after the game?
Go out for a drink?
One cannot deny
the existence of hell.
What do you mean?
It means I'm gonna
make you live in it.
Ladies.
Bella.
It's your turn today.
We're gonna cover you.
Whenever you're ready, darling.
Um, what can I say about him?
He had the kind of face
you just wanted to caress.
There was a childlike persona
about him that was magnetic.
He was spontaneous,
free, and uninhibited.
His playful spirit lured
the child inside of me
And this liberated atmosphere
propelled my desire to write.
It seemed as though
he created the illusion
I required in this world
of disappointment.
Nothing is worse
than broken dreams.
He went to Yale
to study English.
Ivy league dick.
I joined the navy
to win him back.
There was a party.
I went to see him.
Hi, honey, how are you?
What's wrong?
Brad, what are you doing?
That's what I got
serving my country.
A homecoming party.
What was odd is when he got
his degree,
He came back.
And I took him in.
And you took him back?
Ever orgasm with every fuck?
He did that over and over,
Again and again.
Write that man down.
Own it.
I surrendered to brad and
everything went back to normal.
I doubt any couple were happier
than we were at that time.
We're not working out.
I want to move on, leave.
It was the greatest
chapter of my existence.
It was as if I had lived an
entire life in that moment
Because I worshipped
every second of it.
But I guess there is
a time to die.
I adored him.
I adored him.
I adored him.
He couldn't face the whole
reality of being poor.
He took some pills.
I found him in our tub.
I was called to serve
in other wars.
Being a hero is not all
it's hyped up to be.
Did you try writing again?
I wrote because of him.
Ladies, let's call it a night.
You did it and got away with it.
Marcel.
I'd watch your back.
Quiet!
Bella.
You have to make a move.
What?
They're in here.
What the hell
are you talking about?
You have to make
a run for it, may.
And if you don't get through,
you have to just keep going.
Just keep going.
Shit.
Gina, don't!
Please god!
Do her, Gina!
She's gonna keep her mouth shut.
Isn't that right, may?
She's lying.
No, no, Gina.
No, I won't say anything.
I won't say anything.
Gina, Gina, no, Gina, no.
Look at her, Gina.
She can't hide from us.
It's gonna be okay, may.
Good people are
the first to die.
So tired, may.
Lonely, worried.
You're in on it.
Don't.
I should call the police.
Listen to yourself.
You saw them.
There was no one there, may.
Telling Jason or the police
will make you look foolish.
I heard you on the phone.
You said, I'll take care of
her and end it this week.
What are you talking about?
Human blood.
Not exactly a storm in a teacup
type of a thing, is it?
Hiding something, may?
Secrets protect us both.
You saw nothing,
you heard nothing, clear?
Take your pills.
Goodnight.
Uh, how did they... How did
they get into the house?
Barbara gave them
a key... A key.
They were... They
were watching.
They stalked may like wild dogs.
So did, uh,
May... tell the doctor?
Oh, it was difficult for her.
She was given pills
to make her more manageable.
Going somewhere?
Barbara.
There's no nobility
in innocence, may.
I don't feel that way about you.
I'm sorry.
You loved him and you
chose to kill him.
I love him.
I couldn't have killed him.
Couldn't?
You're unsure.
It was in the news, may.
Body found in the lake
Was the one missing
from the apartment.
You're lying.
And you're so sane, right?
Therapy will do
you good, Barbara.
Don't fuck with me.
I'm your genetic superior
With your suspicious
bloody scarf.
I'm watching you.
Kiss me now.
You saw nothing.
You heard nothing.
Understand?
I saw and heard enough.
You better back off my shit,
Or I'm gonna get that 12-Gauge,
I'm gonna fucking dust your ass.
Sleep is your enemy.
Ladies.
May, you okay?
Yeah.
Good, let's move on.
Mattie, it is your turn.
Tell us why you are here.
I don't want to remember.
I'm sorry. You want to pick
on someone else?
Mattie, we are all here for you.
Go on.
I loved tuning pianos.
I was a piano tuner.
You'll go from schools
to colleges and...
the piano is an
instrumental force
In invoking a sense of love.
But as it turns out,
being content wasn't enough.
When he smiled at me,
It was perfect.
I forgot the world.
I knew then how lonely I was.
It's beautiful.
I teach, also.
Classical mostly.
I wish I could play like that.
Let me teach you.
Really?
It'd be my pleasure.
Okay.
Start with C there.
Okay.
Good. Good.
You make it difficult
to concentrate.
Sorry. Well, let's try
this one, then.
He was absolutely
beautiful like that,
Like the music he played.
Magnificent.
I didn't want
to leave that moment.
I felt a fervent pull
toward this man.
A tune in both of our
souls joined harmoniously.
And just like that,
I was teaching him.
It was beautiful having
him sitting next to me.
We lost ourselves in the music.
I didn't want him to forget me
So I focused on teaching him.
In the end, he became
a remarkable pianist.
I wanted him to be
better than me.
Sly bitch.
It was the most beautiful
music I had ever heard.
In the end, he got it, playing.
I wanted to marry him.
I wanted him to remain
inside my heart.
The music he played
filled my veins with a...
A deep, wet current.
It's beautiful.
What's it for?
Sit with me.
It's for bringing
that old piano back to life.
Sell me your piano.
Why?
So you'll have a reason
to come play with me.
He was mesmerizing,
Adorable,
Watching him play, time halted.
Everything I thought I knew
about passion subsided.
I could stare at him
every minute of every day.
Unfortunately, that feeling
came to a sudden crash.
He was involved in a drug deal
that went terribly wrong.
A motorcycle gang threw
his live body off a bridge.
His remains were
found six days later
Washed up on shore.
You can't imagine
what that did to me.
He was a douche.
Don't be harsh.
Elitist snot.
That's enough, Mattie.
Annoying twit.
She'll be back
If she knows
what's good for her.
Things have changed,
haven't they?
What do you mean?
Join us.
For what?
Dummy, when he's done with us,
He's making sure
we're all locked up.
Ballard's insurance plan
is nifty.
This is just all so wrong.
Yeah, listen, nobody here
in particular likes you.
You can change that.
You're all hookers.
Oh, I don't understand.
May.
I saw nothing.
I heard nothing.
I saw nothing.
I heard nothing.
I saw nothing.
I heard nothing.
Ow!
You know, I can have
her any time I want.
If you had anything going
for you, Gina,
Why would she come on to me?
You guys, as of today,
Little May's in
as deep as we are.
So, um, you try going
to the police,
We'll accuse you of being
part of the plan.
Tell me, may, do you
think I'm a murderer?
Don't you dare lie.
I think that
You all killed your men
And you got away with it.
Wow. You're micromanagement
skills are impressive.
Now, for sure, you're one of us.
I'm on my own.
Well, welcome to hell.
Oh, no.
Oops.
Hey, girls, help me carry her.
She blacked out again.
Here we go.
Got her feet?
Here we go.
Why don't you stop dicking
around with her, huh?
Make me.
Stick to the plan, bitch!
Gina, no!
What the hell?
Get up!
What are you doing?
Did you see them?
Who?
They were... They
were right here.
I don't think I believe you.
Call the police.
No, no, no!
Do not call the police.
They already know
everything, okay?
Do not call the police.
I don't understand.
My work, it's not complete.
Screw your book.
Our lives are in danger.
You've got to believe
in what I'm doing.
I don't know who to believe.
May!
Mattie!
She's had enough.
Go inside the house.
Make sure we're alone.
You're not gonna scream
some more, are you?
What? What?
Gag her!
Let's bury her...
alive.
Think for a minute, you fool,
Was any of us all meeting
a coincidence?
All of us in this
fucking shit house.
He knew you killed
your lover all along.
I didn't kill anyone.
He brought you in for depth
for his fucking research.
He's a sick shit.
He knows we all killed our men.
He's gonna turn us all in,
including you.
He doesn't give a shit about us.
It's payback time.
He's done with.
Now, before I drop your ass,
are you in or out?
What?
Okay, okay.
Okay, what?
I'm in.
It goes down tomorrow.
I like that, Bella.
It's progress.
All right, may.
I believe it's
your turn to share.
Has there ever been
a boy in your life?
May?
May.
It was Christmas when
he brought me to his cafe.
He was lonely, just like me,
But he held himself
with dignity.
He had nothing to drink but tea.
But we drank for hours,
just looking at each other.
And he winked at me.
He smiled so softly
that it went right through me
And out the other side.
The softness in his voice
struck me immediately.
It was the voice
I had prayed for.
It was like a whispering,
but deeper,
Like the sound of
a breeze playing over
The open end of a glass bottle.
A light was ignited in my soul.
I knew only a fool would
let this slip away.
Beautiful.
I'm still trying to recover
from that moment.
It was like a...
A childhood song,
just unforgettable.
So what happened?
I kept going back,
More tea, and he kept smiling.
His words melted on his lips.
The type of love we
shared only happens once.
And when he touched my face,
my mind melted
With the thought of him.
I wanted to wake up
next to him forever.
May, get up.
I woke up with butterflies
in my stomach.
So how'd you get the bugger?
It was perfect?
I couldn't have asked for more.
We started going
to his favorite places.
It was thrilling.
A charge of bliss
surged through me.
We found poetry in the islands.
My eyes, once opaque, were
suddenly colored bright,
In a hue of beaming happiness.
He awakened a vision of a new
world and ultimately a new me.
I found myself falling.
Christmas doesn't last forever.
Then what?
There's voices.
These damn voices.
Playing with my head when...
when he spoke to another woman.
Jealousy is normal.
This wasn't jealousy.
I was possessive.
Very.
My heart fell those 20 floors.
Was it him?
May?
May?
I was supposed to make
him dinner that night
And I woke up with guilt.
You filthy slut.
Aah!
She took him from me!
Stop it, stop it, stop it.
Sit.
All right, girls,
out of the room.
Out of the room.
You stay. You sit.
Girls, out of the room.
Out of the room!
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
How fast can you move, Gina?
You planned this and
those pills you give me.
I want you to calm
down right now.
I have to know how you girls
reactor I can't help you.
It's simple.
Dr. Ballard, I think
I killed my boyfriend.
Oh, baby.
Do the police know what I did?
They do.
And you knew about him and
the scarf this entire time?
Oh, yeah.
I protected you from them.
Look, I'm sending them back
to the psych ward.
Now, you can go with them
or you can go to prison.
There has to be closure.
I can't... I can't
believe I killed him.
Every man's got
a breaking point.
Oh, my god.
Gina!
Get off!
Get off of me!
Oh, my god.
Oh, my god.
I told you I was
on top of things.
No. Stop it.
A man has urges, you know.
Mine are a little different.
Mine require very,
very sharp, sharp blades.
I'd close my eyes if I were you.
So she managed
to survive somehow.
I woke up in here.
And soon, they'll sedate
them with those pills.
Save yourself.
So she, um, she talks in
that third person, huh?
Oh, may Oster has many
friends in her head.
The difference between
this book and the others
Is this is a complete
analogy on may.
Patients like her help us break new
ground in the study of psychotherapy.
Yeah.
Oh, your signed copy.
Thank you.
Poor girl.
Thinks she's a famous writer,
won a Pulitzer prize
And a tennis champion.
And she's been here for,
um, three weeks?
Yeah.
Her schizophrenia reflects
a unique case
Of false fixed belief,
Cause and response
to three issues.
Auditory, commanding,
and visual hallucinations.
May Oster, who calls
herself Bella Mostow,
Mattie Todd and Gina stamp
Thinks she was married
to brad, lance, and Marcel.
Yeah.
So she must've had a very traumatic
experience at some point.
Oh, yeah.
Resulting in her multiple
visual hallucinations.
May created quite a world for
herself after she got here.
So may is her
dormant personality.
Yeah.
She misrepresents
every external stimuli
And interprets all
images and sound into fantasy,
Inventing stories using her past
And present interactions.
Yeah.
Have you seen them?
May, may, may, may, may,
sit down, baby.
There you go.
It's okay. It's okay.
When she's caught
beating herself,
In her mind she was imagining
it was them beating her.
But in reality, of course,
she's beating herself.
And once, she tried to choke me.
That's why she has
on the jacket.
The jacket.
The jacket.
She mentioned, um, the jackal.
Is that something
you know about?
Who knows, right?
Her post traumatic
stress disorder
And manic depression are
a direct result
Of abandonment by her mom.
The, um, the skin we found
underneath the dead body's
Fingernails matched her DNA.
So she killed him.
Hence, the jackal.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, the gloves
that we found next to the body
Are a bit of a concern.
The evidence found
underneath the fingernails
Could've been planted.
And not to mention the fact
That she hasn't ever confessed
to killing anybody.
Foul play could
still be involved.
We're waiting on
the forensics of the gloves
To get back from the lab.
But the real question is,
where is that white scarf?
What? Why are you looking
at me like that?
Heh.
I made a few calls.
You were suspended twice
from your duties.
Disciplinary action.
D.U.I., Probation.
Are you still on probation?
I am in the middle of a case
right now and I'm very close.
Is that a fact?
Are you covering
something up, detective?
What makes you think that?
I should call the police,
but I won't.
Get out.
Don't.
Detective?
The lies I've told
Are to cover the truths
I've lived.
The person at the lake was
a patient that escaped.
And the jackal killed him.
Detective!
And soon enough, I knew why.
That's enough, detective.
The doctor pins murders
on his patients
We're done here.
Let's go.
And he uses the pills to make
us feel like we're guilty.
Save me.
May?
I was him.
How can I compete with your boy?
Stop flirting with the sickos.
You hurry up.
We have a tennis match.
Make sure you tell them,
Detective, about him.
Still going on about that?
Time for your rest, may.
Unh-Unh. Unh-Unh.
Not today, not today, Barbara.
Okay.
Just today.
I love you, may.
Yes, Dr. Ballard?
Barbara, I'll be out of town
for almost a week.
I have a patient
I have to bring in.
Make sure that may
takes her medication.
For sure, Dr. Ballard.
You saw nothing.
You heard nothing.
Goblin, do you think
he'll visit today?
We found poetry in the islands.
My eyes, once opaque,
were suddenly colored bright
In a hue of beaming happiness.
He awakened a vision of a new
world and ultimately a new me.
