- Gabe!

You scared me.

I was just doing my workout.

You know, actually,

I was doing some reading on autism,

and it says dancing is a very good therapy,

so I think maybe you're gonna have to come in here

and humiliate yourself in the name of self-improvement.

Now come on, every guy has to learn how to dance

sooner or later, and this is a good song.

Gabe, relax.

No one under 60 touches when they dance anymore.

Let me teach you some moves.

Then at least one of us will be able to get a date, hm?

- That was Billy and the Lost Boys

with "You Get What Everyone Gets," and coming up next,

the latest from Kyprios.

We got a ton of calls and emails-

- Kyprios, I used to have him as my screensaver.

- He's definitely different, just like our boy Kyprios.

Actually, his video's already stirred up

quite a bit of controversy.

We got a bunch of letters from religious groups,

demanding that we pull it,

so you know we're gonna keep it on the air.

Help me.

- And that was Kyprios,

with his latest track, "Ignorance is Beautiful."

A lot of viewers have been asking us

when they're gonna be able to see Kyprios live in concert,

and the answer, as always, is forget it, guys.

He doesn't do concerts, he doesn't do clubs.

He doesn't even hum in the shower

in case someone might be listening.

In fact, this guy hasn't had a live appearance since birth,

and even then, his publicist came out first.

But the great news, I will have Kyprios right here,

live in studio for a one-on-one interview,

day after tomorrow.

We'll be right back.

- Janis, the network does not pay you to diss the artists.

- Kyprios?

Come on, it's nothing he hasn't heard

in a million late night monologues.

The guy's a freak.

- Where are you going?

- To puke, wanna come?

- Okay, uh.

Yeah, we reserve the last five minutes

for anyone who has an urgent need to share.

Does anyone have an urgent need?

Okay, so I guess we'll wrap it up then?

Will everyone please join me in the Serenity Prayer?

- You know, if you don't say the Serenity Prayer,

you can't have dessert.

- I don't get why I have to do step five

in front of the whole group.

- Well, not the whole thing, just the highlights.

- I've read the book.

It says I do my inventory,

I write down my resentments, and fears, and whatever,

and I admit them to God, to myself,

and to another human being.

One, my sponsor, you, not a roomful of strangers.

- One person works for some people.

- Why not me?

- You've got a lot of secrets.

I figure we'd spread the load.

You haven't reached out

to one other person in that meeting besides me.

- I don't need anybody but you.

- And what happens if you show up one day,

and I'm not there?

You go shoot up again?

- You'll be there.

- I got a newsflash for you, honey, I'm human.

I'm gonna let you down.

You can't just lay it all on one person to save you anymore.

You need people, Maya, and lots of them,

or you're not gonna make it.

♪ Whoa ♪

- Mr. Pym?

Hi, Alicia Pips, I am Janis's producer.

What can I do for you?

- Actually, I need to speak to Janis personally.

It's a private matter.

- I see, office hours are nine to five, Monday to Friday,

give me a call, and I'll see what I can do.

- Night, Rachel. - Goodnight.

- New boyfriend?

- No.

- My name's Morgan Pym,

I'd like to talk to you if you have a minute.

- Yeah, well, I gotta blow outta here right now,

but there's a party at my place later if you wanna drop by.

- Maybe we can talk on the way.

(Janis laughs)

- Pushy, I like that.

God, it is time to get loaded.

I think I'm in the mood for a little ecstasy

with possibly a dash of psilocybin

and maybe, just maybe a sprinkling of Jack Daniels.

- I'm here about your deal with The Devil.

- Oh, yeah I like people who are whacked, but you're crazy.

Excuse me.

- Janis, I'm not here to collect.

- Is everything all right, babe?

- Yeah, let's go.

- Is there a problem? - Tom, let's go.

- No.

(somber music)

- That Kyprios song is totally stuck in my head,

and I've got to hear it again.

- [Janis] I will have Kyprios live, in studio.

It's time for us to be together.

(rock music) (people chattering)

- Looking for Janis?

She's not here yet, but you can come in, everybody does.

I'm Brynn.

I live just downstairs.

She lets me hang here as long as I don't drink or anything.

So what's your name, are you famous?

- No.

- That's okay, I'm not famous either,

but a lot of people here are famous,

but they're just drunk most of the time,

can't be that much fun.

- Have you known Janis a long time?

- Mm, pretty long.

She takes a lot of drugs and stuff,

but she's really nice to me.

I think she's sad, you know, like inside?

But she won't talk to me about it.

Oh, there she is.

That's her boyfriend, Tom.

He doesn't say much, but he's the perfect guy.

Never gets mad at her, just lets her do whatever she wants.

I hope I meet a guy like that someday.

(rock music continues)

- You don't have time to pretend

you don't know what I'm talking about.

(muffled rock music)

- I was lonely.

I mean everybody's lonely,

but I felt like I was the only person on the planet,

so, I made a deal for Tom.

It was,

it was like somebody had read all those lists I used to make

when I was a little girl.

About what I wanted in a boyfriend?

- Because somebody did read those lists you made

when you were a little girl, The Devil.

Then he went and found a real person, Tom,

and changed him into the person that you wanted.

- No.

No, it was love, it was destiny.

- When you sold your soul,

you changed destiny, yours and his.

- You think Tom was the person that I hurt?

I wouldn't do anything to hurt him, I love him.

- What the hell are you doing here?

- Janis, let's get outta here and go somewhere we can talk.

- No.

- You're the one who's gonna leave, right now.

- If you love Janis, you'll stay out of this.

(both grunting)

- Tom, stop.

Tom!

(energy whooshing) (Tom groaning)

(Janis grunts)

- Oh my god, what'd you do to her?

- I didn't do anything to her, she passed out.

Get me a wet towel. - Where's Tom?

- He left, just get me a wet towel.

- If you do not get out of here right now,

I'm calling 911, I mean it!

(Janis moaning)

Janis?

- What's this?

- It's a ticket, sir.

You're in violation of vehicle code section P3704B,

leaving your alarm on in excess of 15 minutes.

- I don't have an alarm.

(alarm blaring)

(energy whooshes)

Shut it off.

(alarm chirps)

- Don't let that go to warrant.

- So you conjured up a fake lover for Janis?

- I got the idea from an old fairy tale,

something about making a woman from some guy's rib.

Do you wanna know what body part I made Tom out of?

- You can't take her soul, you didn't deliver on her deal.

- What do you mean?

- He wasn't real.

- Oh, he was real enough for what she wanted.

- No, something's not right.

Tom was the logical person to have gotten the bad luck

from her deal, but if he wasn't real, who's left?

- I love this gig.

You wouldn't believe what some people will offer

to get out of a ticket.

- You're hiding something.

- I've got a quota to make.

- Help me.

- Things have gotten so prepackaged

that singers don't even need to be able

to carry a tune anymore, all right?

Engineers can pitch correct their voice

during the recording,

so naturally, when they send these pieces of meat

out on stage to perform,

there's no possible way that they can live up

to the artificial perfection

that they've created in the studio, so they lip sync.

What else are they gonna do?

It becomes one big simulated experience,

where you think you're seeing somebody live,

but really, there's nobody there.

That's why I don't do live anymore,

because with me, there is no live anymore.

- [Morgan] Smart guy.

- [Alicia] How'd you get past security?

- How long have you worked for Janis?

- I don't work for her, I work with her.

- So how come you have to show up four hours early

for this promotional event,

and she gets to show up at the last minute?

- Her job is to be the face, she's good at it.

- So how does somebody get to be a VJ?

- Is that what this is about, you're looking for a job?

- How did Janis get the job?

- She used to be sweet.

I liked her, the stars liked her,

now she think she's the star,

and she has no respect for anyone,

and I'll deny I said any of that.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I have a large crowd of teenagers to whip into a frenzy,

so you'll just have to stalk Janis later.

(phone chimes)

- Morgan Pym.

- Yes, this is Dr. Allen Federson.

I'd like to talk to you

about a patient of mine, Janis Eisner.

She came by this morning.

I haven't seen her this upset in a very long time.

- What did she tell you about me?

- That you've been asking questions about her past.

Is she in some kind of legal trouble?

- Not from me.

How long have you been treating her?

- I can't tell you that.

- Well, what are you treating her for?

- I assume you've heard

about doctor-patient confidentiality,

so you know I can't answer.

Now, why don't you tell me what it is you're really after?

- I'm afraid I'm also bound by confidentiality,

but I am trying to help her.

- Yeah, well dredging up this girl's past

isn't gonna help anybody, I can promise you that.

Janis is very fragile,

and I'm afraid your harassment might be causing a relapse.

- A relapse of what?

- You know, I suggested she call the police,

but she asked me to talk to you instead.

Now, as you can imagine,

this isn't a typical situation for me.

But then, Janis isn't a typical patient.

- Because she's famous?

- No, I don't watch TV.

- There's a much better chance

I can help Janis if I know what's wrong with her.

- I'm sorry, Mr. Pym,

but I really must ask you to leave her alone.

You could be causing this girl irreparable harm.

- Irreparable harm is exactly

what I'm trying to save her from.

- Then I hope that one of us is successful.

Good day.

(eerie music)

(someone knocking)

- Phone not working?

- I'm working on my inventory.

- Oh good, which part?

- The first part.

- How's it going? - Good.

- [Tracey] So you haven't started?

- I've gotta go to work.

I'll do it later.

- [Tracey] You told me you were almost done.

- Okay, it's all up here.

Every resentment, every fear,

everything I feel ashamed about.

Believe me, it's all right here.

- Well, that's the problem.

We need to get it outta there.

- Right, so everyone can know

about every embarrassing, humiliating,

and disgusting thing that's ever happened to me?

That'll make me feel a lot better, hm.

Why don't I just kill myself now and get it over with?

- Good question, got an answer?

- Look, this is my private stuff.

My hurts!

And the only thing that makes it bearable

is that no one else has to know.

- Maya, our worst experiences

are exactly what makes us useful to other people.

They need to hear from somebody else

who's gone there first, and come back.

- And what if I write it all down,

and I say it out loud, and I hear it,

and I realize that I don't deserve to be alive?

- My best day is gonna be when you realize

that your pain isn't what makes you special.

(emotional music)

- I talked to Dr. Federson.

We don't have time for you to run me around in circles.

- I thought maybe he could explain.

- About how you sold your soul for an imaginary lover?

All right.

Why don't you tell me why you're seeing a psychiatrist?

- It's stressful knowing you only have 10 years.

- No, Federson talked about a relapse.

There's more, something to do with your past.

- Look, you said I needed to make amends to someone.

Isn't that what we should be talking about?

- Everything matters now.

Anything you think is a secret is probably important.

- He said I didn't have to talk about these things anymore,

he gave me permission.

- Whatever was going on 10 years ago

was bad enough to make you wanna sell your soul.

- Look, it wasn't 10 years ago.

(dramatic music)

Look, I don't wanna get into this.

- Why not?

- Do you like to talk about your childhood?

- This isn't about me.

- Well, that's a convenient answer, isn't it?

So you get to be the big wall,

Freudian psychiatrist with a little notepad,

sitting in the corner in your safe chair saying,

"How do you feel about that?"

You know what, screw that.

I can be a wall, too.

(somber music)

- Okay.

My father died before I could remember.

My mother, she tried to raise me herself,

but there was no money.

She wanted me to have a good education.

The monks were the only ones who knew how to read and write.

- Monks?

You mean like, with hoods?

- Yeah.

(memories whooshing)

Guys in hoods.

- That's why The Devil put me here,

so that you would find me.

He knew.

- He knew what?

- About my parents.

They, they were Satanists.

Every full moon,

the other people in their coven would come to our house.

They'd put on these hoods, and,

and they'd perform these rituals.

- Rituals?

- There,

there was blood, and...

And worse.

They would do things to me.

- Janis, sometimes The Devil influences events

in people's lives to make them more vulnerable

when the time comes to make a deal.

- You think he made them do those things to me?

- Is this what Dr. Federson was treating you for?

- For the voices, in my, my head, that's when they started.

They tried all kinds of drugs on me.

It got to the point

where I couldn't think.

I just heard them talking, all the time.

And...

And now they're starting to come back.

- [Brynn] Let me go!

Let me go!

- Oh my god, that's Brynn.

- [Brynn] Let me go, no, let me go!

(intense music)

No!

- Brynn?

Oh my god.

(Brynn crying)

Oh my god, it's okay, it's okay.

We're here, I've got you.

(Brynn crying)

- They tried to do things to me.

- Somebody was inside, who?

Who were they?

- It's okay, Brynn.

Morgan's big and strong.

He's gonna keep you safe, nobody can touch you.

- They had hoods on, I couldn't see their faces.

- Hoods?

(Brynn crying)

Janis, tell me what's going on.

- It's okay, it's okay, everything's okay.

- Janis, tell me what's going on.

- It's okay, it's okay, everything's okay.

(energy whooshing) (tense music)

(Janis crying)

- Janis, have you ever heard the phrase

dissociative identity disorder?

(somber music)

- That's what he called it.

Dr. Federson.

- They weren't just voices, were they?

How many alternate personalities did you have?

- They weren't real, they were just delusions.

- No, they weren't real.

Not until The Devil made them real.

Is that what you really sold your soul for?

A way to stop the voices by getting them out of your head?

- I swear I didn't know.

I just wanted to be sane.

And after my deal, they stopped, they were gone.

And then Tom came.

- So when you absorbed Tom, you thought he was the only one?

- I didn't know what to think.

We have to get the rest.

Whoever they are, the other people-

- Janis, I know this is upsetting,

but it's just a distraction.

The Devil is trying to keep you off balance

so you won't seek redemption.

- I don't know who's real, I don't know if you're real.

- I've been around a lot longer than you have.

- How do I know?

I mean, it makes sense.

I'm so afraid of going to hell.

(Janis crying)

Somebody pops out of nowhere to save me?

- If I was a delusion, I'd tell you I came to save you,

but I can't say that.

I can only offer you a chance.

I'll stay with you tonight.

I need you to tell me everything that you remember.

(somber music)

(tape crackling)

- Hey, Gabe.

I have a surprise for you.

I figure we should celebrate,

considering I heard you singing yesterday.

I was gonna like, scream,

but then I figured I'd give you a heart attack,

so I left you alone, but I've called both your aunts,

and your grandpa, and your Uncle Bill,

and the guy down the street who mows his lawn all the time,

and they are all very excited.

This is a big deal, buddy.

So, I asked a friend of mine,

and he got us passes to see Kyprios.

Isn't that cool?

- [Federson] When did it start?

- Two nights ago, I think.

She didn't tell me until last night.

- [Federson] She's been in remission for years.

I asked you to stay away from her.

- Dr. Federson, it's critical

that she be able to function today.

Can you give her medication?

- Medication?

She needs to go to a hospital.

- We don't have time for that.

She said you've given her antipsychotics before.

What were they? - He's real, isn't he?

You can see him?

- Janis, you need treatment.

Now I want you to go back to the hospital.

- I don't want to go there again.

No, not again.

- I don't know who you are,

but you don't know what you're dealing with here.

This girl needs treatment, and if I have to,

I'm gonna commit her myself.

- Putting her in the hospital right now

could do more harm than you could imagine.

Please, just give her something

so she can get through the next day.

- Mr. Pym, you don't seem to understand.

Janis is in extreme danger.

- Why do I- - The only option here

is that you leave her in my care.

- I'm sorry, I just can't do that.

Janis?

Janis, come on.

Come on.

(somber music)

(Janis groaning)

(Janis laughing)

What?

- I just realized that this isn't really happening.

I mean, everybody knows The Devil isn't real,

so that must mean there was no deal.

Oh my god, what a total doofus I've been.

But this is totally cool, because that means-

- Janis, we have less than 10 hours

to save your soul from an eternity in hell.

Your deal was real, your cure was real, and now it's ending.

I need you to hold onto that, and work with me.

- Let me go. - Janis.

- Let me go!

(eerie music)

If you'll excuse me, I'm late for work.

- You know, this is a limited parking zone.

Sure, the sign says one hour parking, nine to six,

but you have to read the restrictions.

Street cleaning Wednesdays, 10 to 12,

and absolutely no motorcycles

except alternate Fridays, three to 3:30,

unless driven by someone with a valid handicap placard

who is actively loading or unloading heavy machinery.

- This is a new low, even for you.

Making a deal with somebody who's mentally ill?

- You don't have to be crazy to make a deal with The Devil,

but it helps.

- She doesn't understand what's going on,

there was no free will.

- Darn.

15 minutes left.

You know, people always think the meter expired early,

but they can never prove it.

- It was worse than that, wasn't it?

You got to her parents first, you created her disorder

so that you could take advantage of her when she grew up.

- I didn't cause her problems, dear boy, I cured them.

And as for who I make deals with,

you want me to discriminate against the handicapped?

That is against the law.

There's just something, it's different.

There's nothing I can do for you now.

You'll have to do this yourself.

No, it can't, I can't.

(hand smacking)

I can't do this, I can't do it.

- Yes you can, you've been in control of it all along.

Every time you absorbed one of your alternate personalities,

it was by choice.

You absorbed Tom to protect me,

and Brynn when you were ready

to accept your own childhood again.

Federson was the rational, analytical part of you.

You were telling yourself

that you didn't need that part of you

to be separate anymore.

You were telling yourself that you can get through this.

- How can I make amends to somebody

when I don't know who's me?

- I think you were right.

I think you're gonna have to reintegrate

before we're able to find your redemption.

- Reintegrate?

- I think we're gonna have to find the rest of you.

- I'll make it up to you, there must be something I can do.

- I don't know, I felt,

I felt like you could understand me.

- What did you want me to understand?

- I'm lonely.

- I, I know that feeling.

- You do?

You always seem so happy.

- But I've been running from things

as long as I can remember.

I don't wanna run anymore,

I don't wanna run away from you.

It's time for us to be together.

(memories whooshing)

(people chattering)

(Janis gasps)

(Janis shuddering)

It was, it wasn't true.

It wasn't real.

- I know you, I remember you.

You were scared, you were seeing things.

- And you came for me.

(people chattering)

You were the first one.

(Janis shuddering)

You were the first voice in my head.

- In your head?

- Janis, we don't have much time,

you've gotta end this.

- End this, end what?

What is he talking about?

- He means you need to go back inside me.

- Inside you?

- Kyprios, you're not real.

- Of course I'm real, what are you talking about?

- We've only got a minute,

and you've gotta go talk to Alicia.

- Alicia?

No, it's Kyprios.

He's the one that I hurt.

- No, he's just a part of you.

- What the hell is wrong with you people?

What do you want from me?

- Listen to him!

He's been lonely.

I pushed him away, I made him think that he had a real life,

and now I'm gonna take that away

because I made a deal with The Devil?

- The Devil?

- Janis, there's no one there to hurt.

If he were a real person, you both would've went to hell

when you said The Devil's name.

- No, wait a minute.

Suddenly, I'm going to hell

because you made a deal with The Devil?

- I'm sorry, I didn't know.

- If you don't reabsorb him right now, he will go to hell.

Every part of you will go to hell if you don't make amends.

- But this is my amends.

It has to be.

I have to let Kyprios live.

(emotional music) (voices screaming)

- What is it?

Where are those screams coming from?

- Janis, there's still time, take him back.

- No, just get away from me!

(energy whooshing)

This has nothing to do with me!

- He can't go to hell.

He didn't make a deal, he didn't even know.

(voices screaming)

- Janis, don't do this! (energy whooshing)

(Janis grunting)

(energy whooshing) (Kyprios screaming)

(emotional music)

- She's in my head, she's screaming.

- Kyprios, what's the matter?

- She's in my head, and she's screaming.

- What's, what's happening?

- She's in my head! - Tell me, honey.

Show me, tell me what's happening.

- She's- - Get out!

(dramatic music)

Tell me, tell me, what?

- [Janis] Help me, help me, please.

Oh god, help me.

Help me, please, please.

Oh god, oh god, help me, help me, help me.

(somber music)

- When I was a little girl,

I used to write backwards for a while, with my left hand.

I had forgotten about that until last night.

It was like that little girl started writing.

This is what she wrote.

The first night my father

came into my room and locked the door,

it was a Sunday.

I'd just turned seven.

I didn't know what he was doing, I just knew it hurt,

and I remember noticing his eyes were green.

I'd never noticed his eyes before,

but I did that night, because

I couldn't look at his hands.

I know I should've screamed, or fought, or something,

but I didn't.

I didn't say no.

I just looked in his green eyes, until he got up,

and unlocked the door,

and said, "Goodnight, princess."

A big part of me didn't want you to know

about what happened to me,

but I guess there was a little part that did.

Yeah, Amy, go ahead.

- Hi, I'm Amy, and I'm an addict,

and I wanted to say,

thank you.

I've been here for a couple of months,

and I haven't heard anybody else talk about stuff like that.

Anyway, I don't know if this is how I'm supposed to do it,

but do you sponsor people?

(emotional music)

- Why don't we talk after the meeting?

- Okay.

- That's all I wanted to share, thanks.

- Sartre was right, hell really is other people,

especially if they're living inside you.

- Janis is inside him, and in hell?

- Well, not the real hell.

I mean, they only have one soul between the two of them,

and if I were to send it to hell,

then he'd have to go too,

and that just wouldn't seem fair,

so I created a sort of mini-hell for her inside his body,

sort of a personal single serving hell.

Makes for quite a racket inside his head, though.

- This is insane.

What's the point of keeping him alive if he isn't even real?

- Oh, he was real enough

to make Alicia fall in love with him, hm?

Ah, but you already guessed that.

Actually, I'm curious how Janis could have made up

for sucking in that guy her boss wanted to marry.

Well, I guess we'll never know.

- So what now?

How long does it go on?

- 'Til the day he dies, I guess,

unless Alicia is willing to sell her soul

to get him a little peace and quiet.

Hm, I'll have to mark my calendar,

check back with those lovebirds in a year or so.

I was going to give you a ticket

for keeping that thing in the building, but what the heck?

Let you off with a warning, huh?
