Oh, my God.

Bridgewater.
Lee, it's Sheriff Starnes.
Good news.
We just picked up your man, Dr.
Ruber.
You wanted to know what he did to you.
Why don't you ask him? He's at the hospital.
Sood's books.
Welcome to Loserville.
Every disgusting wannabe, coulda-been, has-been object loser hangs out here.
lt makes me sick to see you here.
l need to find something that l.
D.
s the Occupant.
Driver's license, some personal item with his name on it.
The Sood's the guy to ask, but he won't help you now.
You've pissed him off.
Well, l'll apologize to him, smooth things over.
Yeah, that will work.
Come on.
l'm not coming with you anymore.
Those people, my bus ticket, they're like piranhas.
This whole thing, you're getting in so deep it's dangerous for me.
l'm sorry.
l just can't .
You know what, Wally? You're right.
Thanks for everything.
l owe you.
Hey, Joe.
Get her back.
l'm here to see The Sood.
Appointment only.
Look, could you just tell The Sood that l'd like to apologize? Appointment only.
Can l make an appointment? No! Well, well.
Took me a while, Detective.
You're a difficult man to track down.
But every riddle has an answer.
l don't have it.
would l be walking to my next destination if l had the key? So what? You're just another object loser? Welcome to the club.
ls that really a gun in your pocket? Yes.
lntimidating.
Do you know The Sood? Do l know The Sood? Of course l know The Sood.
He's a friend.
He's a colleague.
- We have dinner.
- Good.
lntroduce me to him.
Sir.
Enter.
Weasel, how many times have l got to tell you, keep your stinking carcass out of my shop.
You, too? Pumeet.
Wait, wait.
Sood, listen, l just wanted to introduce you to my friend-- you're already-- l know you guys got off on the wrong foot, so Kill them.
Please, Sood.
Hear me out.
l want to apologize for the disturbance l caused here a few days ago.
My argument was with Mr.
Kreutzfeld, and l had no right bringing that argument here.
All l want is to find this man.
The Occupant.
There's a guy object? l mean, there's an object that's a guy? That changes everything.
You can't find any objects with this man's name on them? No.
No driver's license, no business card, no such object has ever surfaced.
Here is where all the known objects are right now.
Can you find me the pen? Where's the pen? The pen.
How accurate is this? lt's pretty accurate.
l've collected as much history of the objects as l can.
The key, for instance Just in the last few weeks you've been spotted in Pittsburgh, New Mexico, Kansas, Cleveland-- l haven't been to Cleveland.
How far back does this go? Years.
Back to the beginning for some objects.
What if you mapped all their movements all at once? What would that prove? Well, l'm not sure, but there might be some sort of a pattern.
Could you just try it, please? What's that? What's there? No object has ever been through there.
Nothing.
lt's the desert.
That's where he is.
The Occupant in the room, and somehow he is keeping all the objects away.
l need to borrow your car.
Great.
l'll drive.
Give me the keys.
This is all l have.
Give me the keys.
The center of the map is a town called Green Valley.
lt doesn't look like much of a town.
From the outskirts there is a sanitarium.
Good luck.
We have to hit Kreutzfeld hard and fast.
lt's not going to be easy getting in.
Leave that to me.
l have someone on the inside.
Look, none of us have ever done anything like this before.
We have no idea what we're getting into.
But if we don't at least try, we're going to end up dead anyway, so let's go.
What are you doing? Hey.
How are you? lt's a little project.
lt's going to take awhile, though.
But l remember Anthony said something about making ice cream, though.
That wouldn't interest you, would it? Okay.
And close the door, will you, buddy? We're in position.
Very good.
Wait for my signal.
Yeah? They're about to attack.
Wise man.
You made the right choice.
No one's here.
Something's wrong.
l think it's a trap.
Get out.
Get out now.
Let's go.
Don't .
lt won't heal.
Objects don't work in the room.

Police business.
l'm here to see a patient.
Police? Well, okay, sure.
Who's the patient? John Doe.
You do have a John Doe here? Yeah.
He's always been here.
You should empty your pockets.
He doesn't like things.
What do you mean? Things--stuff, pens, wallets, keys.
lt freaks him out.
The firearm? lt stays with me.
My name is Joe Miller.

Who the hell are you? l just want to know who you are and what happened in that motel room and if you created the obj-- Stop talking! l met your wife Mabel.
She gave me your picture.
She misses you even if she doesn't remember you.
l felt the photograph coming.
l thought maybe you might have been my wife.
l let you through.
l'm sorry.
l'm really sorry.
Please, it's very important.
l just need to know, did you create these objects? l didn't .
Then where did they come from? l don't know.
l didn't do anything.
lt just happened.

My little girl went into that motel room and she never came out.
Can you tell me where she is? She's still there.

She's gone.
There's more than one.

But you can.
How? How can l bring her back? Take me to the motel room.
You almost had me there, Jennifer.
Yeah, too bad.

He l saw l've come a long way, Martin.
Margaret? Margaret, l saw him.
l saw the man in the room.
What man? l saw him through this Polaroid at the motel.
l saw the Occupant the living object.
This isn't true.
None of it.
He gave me a vision in the desert.
He told me that The Order was wrong.
He said that if l could put all the objects back together again, that l wouldn't just talk to God.
He said l would be God.
That's why you won't kill me.
l'm the Prophet.
Lee.
l knew you'd come.
Ruber! Don't smile at me like that.
l want some answers.
Who killed Lou Destefano? l did.
What happened to Anna Miller? The motel room took her.
You know the motel, Lee.
You dreamed about it.
How did you know that? The motel room is where the objects come from.
And they protect me.
l'm the Prophet of the Objects now.
Good-bye, Lee.
You're under arrest! Stop, Ruber, or l will put a hole in you! When you're ready to know the objects, Lee, come find me.
lt's ready.
l'm nervous, Anthony.
Karl, please don't do this.
l want to see my son.
No! Daddy? lsaac.
Daddy? Yeah.
lsaac, no.
No, lsaac, please.
No.
Please! Come back! Karl, don't ! l want to see my son.
No! Don't , Joe! Stop! l feel like myself again in here.
Outside in the real world, there's so much noise in my head.
lt's quiet in here.
Who are you? l used to be a man named Eddie McCleister.
Used to be? And now you're what, the prime object? No, no.
There's no prime object.
l'm just an object like the rest.
l have a will.
That's the only thing that makes me different.
Except you're alive.
Yeah, unfortunately.
Unfortunately? Outside this room the objects all sense each other always, like pain, electricity, noise.
For a conscious mind, it's torture.
You said l could bring my daughter back.
How do l do that? You have to kill me.
No.
l can't .
You can.
Even if l wanted to, you shot yourself in the mouth.
You spat the bullet out.
l can't .
You can kill me in this room.
Take the burden.
What burden? Become an object.
Take my place.
No.
l don't understand.
How is that possible? One object is destroyed, another is created: conservation of objects.
Eddie, l can't .
l don't want that.
l want to die.
You want to see your daughter again, you have to kill me now, here, in this motel room.
No.
No, l won't be a murderer.
Take out your gun please.
End this.
No.
Look, there's a price for everything, Joe.
This is the price to get your daughter back.
Please.
l'll get my daughter back? Will my past be erased like yours was? l don't know.
Will my daughter remember me? l don't know, but she'll be alive.
l'm sorry.
God forgive me.
Are you all right? What happened? Where is he? Sorry.
