Before Before.
According to the cadastre solar belonged Steven Prescott.
He had a house there from 1960 to 1968.
Probably acted as John Wayne Gacy and then buried in his backyard.
Can you access files Automotive Department at that time and take a look at this Prescott? Received.
This is the aspect that was 35 years ago.
Should you be kidding? Would you explain how you have Young remained so over the years? I do not know.

And seeing my photo manipulated the article in the newspaper.

There are more than 2500 codes destroy the second level protection from intrusion detection.
Okay.
You have accessed my permission.
Beautiful.
But I have answered.
Who would want to get involved in a crime 34 years ago? Or some clown put his picture at random.
"An enemy? A former amok? Wherever Steven Prescott has left a trail of bread crumbs.
I could only find his ex-wife.
That's something.
Let's see you get out.
He told my detective.
But this involves you directly You can not go there Someone is getting involved.
Not far away.
He has not said a word since who suffered a stroke 5 years ago.
I'm afraid it has been up here for nothing.
Could you tell us your ex-husband, Steven Prescott? The truth is that it does not seem appropriate discuss the private lives of my patients.
She is a nurse.
His work is caring for people.
If he were truly concerned about this lady Now you can help.
I remember Agnes called Steven, "the big mistake.
" In fact, I myself I started to call it.
Do you know why they divorced? The cheating bastard.
Who was the lucky one? Not sure.
Agnes swore not speak its name.
It felt so betrayed by she, like her husband.
Someone close, a friend, a sister.
Is there a photo album that we see? He came here without any personal effects.
All your memories are Inside.
Yes.
Mrs.
Prescott Murderer.
I assure you.
I called him in the face: a murderer.
Well, this is sharing too.
You're not getting any easy to be your friend, John.
She thinks I'm her husband, and it is not possible, right? You should have about eighty.
The average male reaches facial maturity at age 18.
Be 18 years You do not have 52 years.
The old have 52.
Like you're a vampire, or something.
Karen, I'm serious.
I do not know how I know.
Could be an alien reliving your old identity? But seriously, have you medical tests done To see if you are human? I'm glad I shared this with you.
You could be a time traveler.
That's why you have not aged at all.
Jumped in time.
Time travel is impractical according to all theories.
Current, "but in the future? I can not believe you do this.
The course is called "Physics and Time Travel.
" My boyfriend says that the type served until 13:00.
I give it five minutes.
Open mind, John.
Beautiful flowers.
Let me guess: Have you been a week with your boyfriend? I'll tell you that pesticides used to cultivate endanger the tiger beetles.
Toma.
Read a little.
And you, what is that If you question something ignore it.
Leather, "animal skin.
" Do you know how many creatures have died for you can go around in the latest fashion? None.
His shoes are cloronol, a litter synthetic alternative to provide the same elasticity and appearance of leather.
Nonsense.
No nonsense.
Absolutely.
You blouse, on the other side Is wool.
No sheep died for it.
For the two strands dyed fiber Handmade wool is Australian.
The Australian government aware of the killing of 5,000,000 kangaroos annually.
They are considered a pest because they eat the grass they need for their sheep.
A pleasure chatting with you.
All this is hypothetical.
But using two laser beams Rotating in the opposite direction could find a new solution To the field equation Einstein's gravitational for a circular power source.
Not work.
Note account of the paradoxes.
I've done.
But protection conjecture Chronological Hawkins states that the laws of physics Conspire to prevent bodies to convey information the past.
An outstanding, Mr.
Doe.
Should get a house and build a family.
Are you saying that a passenger in time would run out of memory? In theory, yes.
It would be a cosmic device intended to avoid the paradoxes.
My hypothesis is that a time traveler would have encyclopedic knowledge.
Does this mean that people the future would be more ready? Yes.
Homo Sapiens evolve.
It's the most logical.
In 100 years, perhaps 100,000 years people use a greater percentage of the brain.
Perhaps they know everything.
Sure.
Why not? Tell me this Doctor.
Is it possible that my friend has traveled to You're kidding.
There is only one way to know.
MRI.
What do we say? I imagine that time travel is like sending a fax.
The information is transmitted from point A to point B, but some Bits of information are lost or altered in part.
The copy is never exactly the same.
An MRI will tell us if there is any flaw at the molecular level.
That betray a trip back in time.
At least in theory.
It is crucial to remain totally immobile.
The first resonance apparatus Magnetic called him "the wild".
Now on display at the Smithsonian.
Yes, I know.
- Alto, take me out.
- What happens? - I think I'm claustrophobic.
- Do you believe? Karen, I am claustrophobic.
What do you think? Every day something new about me.
Is it always like this? It's complicated.
I think it's best sedation.
The tranquilizer is good.
What gave me? "Frazlin? "Clorozepan? Remember to keep quiet.
It gets noisy inside.
I know.
Did I mention that I know everything? The machine is not taking any pictures.
What happens? Something is interfering.
"Mr.
Doe, have Piercings? No.
"Bypass, aneurysm clip? Has any metal object inside that distorts the magnetic field.
I have to leave.
I saw something.
I saw something.
No no John! Where can you ? Here you are.
Where were you? I looked everywhere.
Talk to me.
What's wrong? If something goes wrong, I want to help.
You can not.
No one can help.
Can not be you, unless you have had surgery or something, right? What about John? What? Hello? Are you at least listen? How long am I here? That's funny.
Was a second ago in my department.
No.
You were saying that neither even know your age.
I see things.
Memories, visions or something.
I see everything in color.
Big deal, I also like everyone else.
No.
I'm monochromatic vision or at least it was.
This must mean something.
What is happening to me? This makes no sense.
Look're scaring me.
First was that of "I woke up in a island, "you slam the door in my face, and then you're viewing monochrome and now you're not.
Sorry.
What's not happening.
It's just that .
Your whiskey on the rocks.
Did I ask for this? It is a difficult question.
Maybe I had a concussion when I hit my head to make the resonance or maybe the electromagnetic field MRI sparked memories.
Or they can be abductions.
Maybe was so time travel.
I'll take the whiskey back.
It seems that you are intoxicated.
Whatever.
When you had those visions were actually in 60 in Woodstock? How old pretend? Another difficult question.
My second wife used wondering the same thing.
Always ended in a discussion.
"Do I look fat in this dress? "that was different.
So this is where you spend your time when you're not bothering me.
Frank, Digger.
Digger, Frank.
I think you already know my assistant, Karen.
Hello.
It seems that our case "Closed" has been reopened.
Did they identify the victim? Who is it? Prescott was employed.
Records show that he worked for them more than 5 years.
Then calculate what happened: The husband has an affair with employed.
The woman suspected And the husband kills employee cover-up.
What's your name? Elizabeth Menzogna.
Now we the reason, we only Prescott.
I think not Look, I have serious doubts about you.
But I know you did not kill anyone But it is a good idea to show because it is impossible and that Avery has to explain this to their superiors.
That Prescott is elusive.
No record of him until 1960.
As if out of nothing.
And then the police started investigate the disappearance of the employee.
And he disappears from the map.
Disappears as Copperfield.
So the only way to go after he is through his victim.
Had a whole life ahead.
I have to know more about it.
"You're hiding something? Well, let's go.
Where? It is not the only one with brain Mr.
Mysterious.
I located a cousin of the victim.
How's your wife? It is all very clear.
I only care about my work.
I'm never at home to read bedtime stories.
And when was the last time I went to a baseball game? When was the last time? Work as usual to give them a better world.
- Your child has been in Hawaii? - No.
Why? Should take.
I doubt very much that you want go with me somewhere.
His father is always here there does not make it funny.
That glass container, has a capacity of 15 gallons.
Each candy measures approximately 0.
6 inch By 0.
3 inch wide taking into account the compression and unit weight.
I would say containing 21,773 sweets.
What if in the middle has a balloon? It would be unethical.
Welcome to the real world, John Doe.
You know, you could be the realistic type and I the mysterious and intuitive.
I always hope that Elizabeth was alive.
It might seem ridiculous, after so many years.
Absolutely.
Sometimes we can only hope.
So at the time of disappearance worked for such a Steven Prescott, right? I'm back from everything and do not walk around the bush, Detective.
My cousin was having an affair with that man.
She knew it was wrong.
But love is love.
I could not help.
Any idea where can be Prescott? Hope died.
Excuse me.
My pastor always preaching about forgiveness, but Quiet, in this case may be an exception.
It was rumored that when the police began to investigate Elizabeth's disappearance, he vanished.
Perhaps fled the country.
How can you be so sure Prescott was killed? Did you know? No, but I feel it in my bones.
As found out about the baby.
What baby? Your baby.
His son.
Son? What was it? I have to know.
I was afraid of what Prescott might do if he found out and I gave up for adoption.
To protect it.
If we were a child, a paternity test demonstrate that Prescott was justified.
The adoption records were dealt with long ago.
I never wanted to know.
We must find records now.
Disc?lpelo.
're A novice, is training.
All I have is this.
"I can ask some questions? John, I thought that it would like.
It seemed that the house had too look for housing.
It will be because I live here.
Truth.
I know.
But going to try A tribute to the work of Omaz MC, 1946.
The eye.
No.
Is that the eye is a Hook logo.
You know, for the business.
"Private Eye" do you like? Although I know very little about my own tastes, I know I do not like.
Fussy.
All right.
Paint it again.
The only reason I have not gone running and screaming murderer is that I have to believe this madness, it means something.
Something important.
Me too, Karen.
Wait.
And this photo? Is our first official track? Prescott has a son.
Born in 1968.
- Are you kidding? - No.
.
.
could be me.
So let the hypothesis of time travel? This really makes sense.
So I'm sorry.
None of this makes sense.
What happens to your mental vision? Some flaw in my brain or damage by magnetic resonance imaging, do not know.
This photo.
See? Prescott could be my father.
Discusses family resemblances.
Your father is a murderer.
It could be my fault.
Y Vanessa could hold the key to all that.
She knew me, cared me, I prepared for adoption.
Great, you gave up for adoption as me.
As always tell me glad not to have known my real parents.
Who knows how sick could be.
given up for adoption in 1968.
What if I was one of them? I have to talk to Vanessa.
I just did.
No.
But Hayes.
About me, about Elizabeth.
Maybe she can unlock my memory.
And to answer that.
"John are you okay? I see a bit worn out with this.
I mean, this could be just a coincidence.
A second of these on your computer and the next second appears on Vanessa.
What you ask me to believe? Why you went there, if had to be finished? - Just wanted to talk.
- On what? About me, my past.
On the infant.
And that has to do with you baby? I'm really fed up of this routine, John.
Sorry, I just Were with the victim, question her applying the third degree hours earlier.
What happened to that? This is you is getting ugly, John.
I have had gaps, from the resonance.
These visions, voices The voice of who? How Vanessa? Was the voice of Vanessa? Did she scream? Not.
It's too blurry.
Going to be better than begin to concentrate.
Just beginning to trust you.
We've seen a lot the bloody bastards and there is something in your eyes, I can see.
But who is John Doe, do not think it such.
I heard you.
It's all you have.
You can not echo on a hunch, Frank.
Give me some time.
Let me try.
I just lay in this work.
I can not keep track a guy who has fallen from heaven, despite much to help us.
I have an idea.
Maybe give us some answers.
It is too late for that.
We are preparing the inmate's clothing.
"it is better to risk saving a guilty person than to condemn an innocent one.
" Voltaire, Zadig.
Chapter VI.
Are you now also a philosopher? Only 5 minutes, Frank.
Please.
State v.
McCartney, New Jersey, 1992.
What happened with it later? The analysis of traces of blood exonerated the suspect.
Will you try to do that here? It is worth trying.
Pretend that this is the fourth where Vanessa was killed.
The table was here, and Most of the blood here.
Now, by gravity, by air resistance and the direction that the blood had, Vanessa would be sitting right here.
"I did all this in your head? The majority.
Sorry to take, you are ready.
Now, for the angle tear between the third y.
.
.
Fourth vertebra, the murderer would have been here.
Tu, best you turn away.
Was better away If you had killed 'd be covered in blood.
Not only pants.
I musta bed and crawl over it.
You have only 12 hours find out who did this.
Frank, "thou wilt it.
Where did you learn all this? On the Discovery Channel.
Frank, I want to thank you.
All this Yes .
.
Let's not get very sentimental, right? Papi! What are you doing T-Man? Mom said she was tired of expect that we will spend looking.
Frank! When will you learn? Can you talk to me friend John for a moment? Papi is coming soon, right? What is that you have in your clothes? Only fatty acids, corn syrup concentrated food dye # 7.
Fake blood.
Did you know that Alfred Hitchcock used syrup Bosco chocolate to mimic blood in "Psycho"? And did you know that the fear of blood is called "Hemophobia"? Did you know you talk weird? Did you know that your laces are untied? "Return, return, and there we go!" Please calm down.
Tyler, listens Daddy has to work late today so that you will go home to mom.
Yes? Again? You still owe me a hug last night, and I will collect today earlier.
Give it to me.
Very good friend.
Great guy.
Yes, it's having a hard time this issue of separation.
If I'm correct, I would say that you have your own.
That trick to tie his shoes.
Where did you get? In truth comes from I do not know where it comes from.
It's something that I do not know.
Well, there seems to First time for everything.
Come on.
The clock is ticking.
Hand me the pliers.
What do you have? Strange.
Quercus petraea.
French oak.
It has more tannin than any other species.
Extremely rare.
Not grow at less than 6000 miles away.
Did not you say that the body was found in a ? Barrel of oil.
Made of stainless steel, double coating capacity of 14 bbl.
Just like a barrel of oil but it is not.
It's a tank fermentation.
Used to produce wine.
So, whoever killed Elizabeth had to have access to something like this.
This restricts the search a bit.
A winemaker.
Someone working in a fermentation plant.
Great, a winemaker.
Only 3 companies exported this type of wood in 1968.
The last time I checked.
I got it.
Vineyard "Columbia Terrace.
" Founded in 1968.
The only winery in the entire Northwest French oak that still matters.
It says here that the owner is William H.
Leverton.
William Henry Leverton, born in 1967, died in 1968.
So it was that Prescott did.
Stole the identification of a dead child established a new industry and continued to produce wine.
We'll bring some friends with us.
This guy could run away at night.
Nothing.
Quiet! Hold your arms.
What's happening? This man is very ill.
Is this man Steven Prescott? No.
His name is William Leverton.
This is your home.
How long is in that state? And are 2 years.
Are you Steven Prescott? Do I seem familiar? What do you want? Sorry.
I think we committed a serious error.
Are we related? There is nothing like staying empty-handed.
Where are we? What? Is this some kind of game to you? Just leave the house of Leverton 5 minutes ago.
I'm getting tired of this.
I have had another fainting spell.
I do not know what is happening.
Your brain is not receiving enough oxygen.
Oxygen Turn around.
Leverton is Prescott.
It is the murderer.
Really? then let me raise again the tactical unit.
Your respirator.
Oxygen focused on a viral system M5.
A pressure system a switch to adjust valve cycles that compensate for the altitude.
Still had the factory defaults.
- That said a nurse or whoever? - I was pretending.
Not even going to use the oxygen.
It was an illusion to have an alibi.
- And the nurse Raches? - No team had configured properly.
I bet your pretty dress was a Halloween costume.
It was probably the wife of Prescott.
If we are wrong twice I'll make a better day.
Trust me.
Damn.
He will take 10 minutes ahead, wherever you go.
You may have another residence.
Going to the airport.
Now we are clairvoyant? They confirmed it.
Mr.
and Mrs.
Leverton.
Come on.
To the left.
It is not there.
The normally congested traffic at the entrance 520 of the Evergreen bridge.
And usually there is a traffic congestion in the east of the city.
So turn left and take the South by Rainier.
To the left.
Then take the floating bridge I-90.
Will run into the truck Street Cleaning 515 We will reduce the advantage.
You're better than GPS.
Accelerates in the 519.
So what intercepted on the 149 with the 8th.
Hold on! Hold on! What remains? We analyze the DNA of the body.
What body? Look at this, the car completely melted.
There is nothing.
No.
.
No, I have to confirm it was Steven Prescott? I think you confirmed that.
You are officially out of suspicion.
What about the Doctor? Did he say that you alien? That's funny.
I'm not.
Do you still see in color? No.
And the gaps are gone? Unfortunately, not I've had in a week.
Retrograde amnesia could be post-traumatic gaps in neurological trauma, result of a concussion.
Why unfortunately? I you were happy not to have acid hallucinations.
Karen, I saw some figures.
a woman, maybe.
What if these visions were a window into my subconscious? Memories of my past, who I was.
And now they're gone.
"We did X-rays? Yes.
Small traces of metal in my chest, right here.
Nothing of the device then Travel in time? I know nothing about that.
If a brand could have metal particles what burns my skin.
But what kind of brand? And why? Or maybe it's a simple tank of iron in the epidermis.
Basically, the Doctor answered your questions with more questions.
The story of my life.
Did you find an answer? Prescott How was your father? No.
You know, never replied really your question.
When asked if they could trust me for this.
Can.
He was right.
Wait a minute.
If your father was Prescott, that means the woman who found In a barrel was your Yes.
The granite can last a long time.
It is very nice.
Now take care of it.
