[Music]
[Music]

[Music]

martin model
oh well and not yet but i was scouted to
enter this year's torrington academy
student calendar modeling contest
modeling contest
[Music]
please like how shallow can you get uh
oh
sounds to me like someone's a little
jealous
me jealous get real lending your face to
a frivolous calendar is totally
pointless not to mention tacky
i think you're jealous because nobody
asks you to enter
the center
it's coming from here
[Music]
careful you might break it
the caveman player
[Music]
oh sorry billy i didn't see you yeah you
were probably too busy looking at your
reflection in the machine
just making sure i'm still styling my
sister's just jealous because i'm gonna
be a calendar model wow what a cool
winky dink
i was a supermodel in my home planet
whoa
cool
i'm trying to concentrate
whoa alien chess this i gotta see
don't even think about it
for your assignment you'll be going to
montreal canada to investigate the
report of a woman whose face was erased
erased that's horrible it could be a
result of a creepy alien attack i do say
that is quite the immature view of your
intergalactic neighbors we are in fact
intellectual beings that thrive on a
sense of camaraderie and fairness
this is the first time i've ever seen
martin speechless you must come over
more often
[Laughter]
[Music]
this way guys
[Music]
i wonder what a faceless person looks
like
i've so got this modeling gig in the bag
the only thing that's gonna be in the
bag is your head speaking of which is
this the new style
it what now i've got static in my hair
java hairspray please
you're kidding what it gets rid of
static in no time
[Music]
martin c yeah
weird
sophie
sophie are you here
uh
whoa
when mom said erased she wasn't kidding
i'll uh i'll get a pen and some paper so
we can communicate with her
she says there was an electric shadow
then darkness
there was no pain just a smooth surface
where her face once was
wow she was very beautiful and very
photogenic like me um hello she still
has ears martin we'll do everything we
can to find out what happened now why
don't you tell me where you were when
the shadow appeared
right here at the vanity huh maybe
there's a clue i doubt it since we're
obviously dealing with an angry spirit
of some kind oh really well maybe you
could tell me what kind of spirit lisa
can't print well the uh not so spirity
kind
i'll just scan this and send it to billy
for analysis
and while we wait java can take some
pics of me around town for the calendar
yeah java photographer
good
oh don't forget my good side
oh and you'll need one of me pouting
girls love that
if you're gonna be doing this for the
entire mission i swear i'm gonna
it came from down there come on
i feel something tingling
it's static electricity just like with
sophie's apartment it's everywhere
[Music]
we have to do
[Music]
okay that was definitely a 10 on the
barometer oh freakiness
is she all right
[Music]
i'm guessing she's been better martin
what's going on here
maybe we're dealing with some kind of
supernatural entity like a vampire only
instead of sucking blood it's sucking
faces
we should probably check her id
valerie broussard
hey get a load of this she looks just
like sophie i think it's time to call
the center
you have to stop doing that especially
in dark alleys sorry marty couldn't
resist so what did the bio scan reveal
that the handprint belongs to a local
woman michelle dubois
they look like sisters this can't just
be a coincidence
look like diana you're right
although i have to say this is one club
i definitely don't want to be a part of
you haven't heard the rest although the
handprint was an exact match the small
tissue traces contain no human dna you
mean it's not human exactly so if the
handprint belongs to this person
michelle but she isn't a person
what is she i don't know but we're about
to find out
[Music]
oh wait miss dubois she left town trejor
three days ago i remember she was in a
very big hurry to leave
au voir
yeah thanks i mean mercy
michelle can't be out of town and
stealing faces she's gotta be close by
well unless she's able to teleport
or lucid dream
or astral project uh
come on we need to check out her place
open window
[Music]
looks like someone left in a hurry yeah
but who or what drove her away
more electric yeah and i'm not liking it
at all
over here looks like the remains of some
kind of weird ceremony
what smell human hair no other smell
like it
freaky wonder what burnt hair is doing
here
looks like it's part of a spell
a spell to exorcise a dolphin ganger a
doppelganger isn't that like your twin
or something not exactly uh see
according to legend every person on
earth has a doppelganger most of the
time it's just that tiny voice inside
your head that tells you to do things
you know you shouldn't
like uh that little evil guy on your
shoulder in cartoons oh right only
sometimes the doppelganger can get out
of control and have a kind of fatal
attraction to you it's so overpowering
of force that it actually manifests
itself in reality
that's a little unlikely don't you think
well i mean technically it's possible
because the brain's impulses are
electromagnetic but to have the
magnified to such an extent
what is that whatever it is it's trying
to tell us something
michelle must have used a spell to
separate herself from her doppelganger
and now it's trying to find her again
which explains the not so human
handprint at sophie's your theory still
doesn't explain the face stealing java
wanna leave
huh
it's simple the doppelganger can't find
the real michelle because of the spell
but when it finds someone that looks
like her it gets angry and steals her
face well then we have to find michelle
before the doppelganger hurts anyone
else how we find
dear sarah having a great time at the
cottage north hadley isn't the same
without you love michelle anyone up for
a drive to north hatley
that's weird how can there be shadows
everywhere when the sun isn't even out
there
good work job
[Applause]
michelle
michelle dubois please it's urgent it's
about your doppelganger
how do you know about me
and how do you know about it it your
doppelganger is stealing faces from
women who look like you i think you'd
better let us in
now
we're here to help my name is diana
that's martin and that's java we were
back at your apartment when
i can't see a thing out there huh
so when did your doppelganger first
appear almost four years ago at first it
was great
but soon it began to tear my life apart
you brought it with you
wait you have to tell us what happened
we don't have much time all right i had
just made partner at a prestigious law
firm i had a fiance and great friends
but it ruined everything for me it's
coming back
[Music]
so you thought the only way to get rid
of your doppelganger was to exercise it
yes
i thought it worked but obviously look
we have to banish the doppelganger once
and for all michelle i need to know
exactly what you did during the exorcism
okay
i took a lock of hair and a picture
i tore the picture in two making sure
the tear was down the center of the face
and then i had to burn one end of the
lock of the hair and say the incantation
that was it oh it seems like a
straightforward separation ritual to me
we need to
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
it wants revenge it won't stop java's
sad for diana
take her into the closet over there i
don't think we have much time before it
realizes it got diana instead of
michelle it's coming for me you're right
now you're either gonna wait for it to
find you or you're gonna help me banish
it for good
what's it gonna be
what do you want me to do
[Music]
we have to do what you did before only
now we have to do it backwards then
it'll be a binding spell a binding spell
but i don't want to be attached i know
you don't but trust me i know what i'm
doing
[Music]
start it start the spell and remember
don't stop for anything
she's taping the picture back together
now
undone chains the shadow into one one
becomes again one without two
in here
[Music]
i'm sorry i'm sorry please
stop
don't you see what i'm doing
i can't live without you
i need us to be together again like old
times
undone chains the shadow into one
one becomes again
one
[Music]
just one thing left to do before we are
joined once more i have to leave the
circle
nothing like a little hairspray to get
pesky static under control
now what do we do
call in reinforcements
[Music]
contain the target make sure there are
no conductive agents in the retarding
solution
is diana all right
just fine thanks good
the other victims also have their faces
back
hmm that poor doppelganger she's really
just lonely you know after seeing you
like that i think you're right doing the
torrington student calendar is vain my
face is way too precious to lend out
like that wow martin that's so
mature
i'm totally impressed
java's so proud
why i'm not even in it
[Music]
no way i don't believe it uh not jabba's
favorite paint six even better what is
this she's on every page in the library
the computer room the language lab
[Music]
okay what's the big idea take it easy uh
jenny just entered me as a joke but when
they chose me and said it was going to
be about the studious student
well i couldn't refuse so you were just
jealous of me you can call it whatever
you like
