Thank you.

- I nearly gave up on you.

- I had to buy a tie.

That's a tie?

Oh Mrs. Benson.

Good evening. How lovely to see you.

Let me take your coat.

- Norah, how are you? Good to see you.

Joel.

- A nice surprise. I didn't expect to see you.

Wait just a minute. Hans, Carol...

Noel, how are you?

Make yourself at home. Get a drink.

Hi!

Norah.

I'm gonna get a drink.

How are you, Joel? - I'm fine.

- Of course, it depends on the position of one's moon.

But as a generality,

Leo's are far more aggressive and unpredictable, really.

But I would say the same for a sagittarius.

Mahler were the only composer of any consequence,

but actually, you know, I think he's quite shallow

and image conscious.

Really doesn't know much about music.

His ideas of relevance ended around 1910.

- I told my Butler that I took a bus,

he was simply appalled.

- You've got something to drink, have you? - I don't like your place here and I don't like...

Oh, well,

it's all a question of taste.

But the black panthers aren't natives of this country,

but the young lord...

She looks terrific.

Some women bloom after a divorce.

- I must say, I never thought she'd go that route though.

- What route's that, Amos? - Young lovers.

I hate to see an attractive woman go that way.

- Erica, what a fabulous party.

- Thanks darling. - And I love your gown, isn't that gorgeous?

- I thought you weren't coming.

- Oh, I changed my mind.

- You've been doing a lot of that lately.

- I may do some more.

- Woo hoo, well, let's help yourself, darling.

Beautiful.

Oh, you brought us 10,000 miles for this.

- I'm so... - Well, hello, hello, hello.

- Sherry?

- How've you been?

- Fine, thanks.

How was Europe?

- It was wild.

But I'm glad to be back.

I know.

No, to host a splendid party like that

and be up early with patients even

before I've had my breakfast.

I don't know where she gets the energy.

And I always did admire that about Erica, even in college.

And particularly,

because she doesn't have to work.

Just a moment, Veronica's here.

Just a moment.

- I'm sorry to be late, Mrs. Benson.

I went to a party last night also.

- Please, just bring the coffee, Veronica.

Hurry, get the children's breakfast ready first

or they'll be late. Would you please hurry? Thank you.

Yes, Justin.

Well, tell Erica I'll call her later,

and thank her again for the lovely party, would you?

Thank you, goodbye.

Carrie, Peter, time to get up or you'll be late!

- I'm asleep! - Me too!

- Come on, cut the comedy.

Up you go now and get dressed.

- Okay. - All right.

- Can I make it from Riverdale to midtown Manhattan

in 20 minutes?

- Here's your coffee, mrs Benson.

- Oh, don't put it down there, Veronica.

Bring it over here.

You know, I can't function in the morning without my coffee.

And will you see to it that the children

are dressed and ready in 15 minutes?

They'll be late for school.

- Breakfast will be ready shortly.

- Thank you.

- I'll fix some eggs

for the children.

And, uh... I'll have

wheat germ for you.

Good.

Do you want anything special for dinner?

- Yes, Mr. Delaney will be here.

Let's have, umm, let's have veal

and white wine sauce with mushrooms. He'd like that.

- Wait for me!

What's the matter, don't you like me?

- Of course I like you.

Come on, let's dance.

Hey, what are you doing?

- Oh, not so fast!

Oh, slow down!

- Joel, be careful!

Ow!

You okay?

Hey, how about going out for a drink or something?

- That's not fair, we came to skate!

- Are you all right?

All right, I'll tell you what we'll arrange.

Skate here a little while longer,

and then we'll go home and have a very special dinner, all right?

- I can't tonight, no, I'm sorry.

- Why not?

- Well, I got a meeting, that's all.

- What kind of a meeting?

- Just business.

A business meeting, with whom?

- How about tomorrow night?

- Well, I hadn't planned on tomorrow night.

I'd planned on tonight.

- Well, you didn't ask me. - Just went ahead and planned.

You can't always go ahead and plan like that, y'know.

- Is he coming for dinner tonight?

- Tomorrow night.

- He doesn't skate as good as dad.

Mom, I'm hungry.

We still waiting for Joel?

Yes, it won't be long.

Did you finish your homework?

- This will tide you over. - Not yet.

Veronica, would you mind staying

a little later tonight?

I'd appreciate it.

And let's not use those glasses.

Let's use the crystal, they're much nicer.

Oh, that must be Joel.

Stop fooling with your hair like that, Carrie.

Hello? Oh, it's you James.

No, I was just expecting someone else.

No, I can't do it Friday night.

I'm going to a meeting of the legal defence fund

and Saturday night to a benefit.

Why don't you call me later in the week?

Perhaps I could hold Sunday open for you.

Yes, thank you very much.

Goodbye.

- I'm starving, do we have to wait for Joel?

- All right, I'll call him.

Stop doing that to your hair, Carrie.

Joel?

Joel?

I think I had the wrong number.

It's all right.

Joel answer me, are you there?

I'm going down there.

I'll come with you.

- No, Peter, I'll be fine.

- Well, he can get here by himself if he has to.

- Why don't you call daddy?

- I don't need your father, Carrie.

Now you to begin dinner, huh?

And I'll bring Joel back in time for dessert.

Go ahead, I won't be long, Veronica.

- Come on, Peter, let's eat. - All right.

What's happened?

Ma'am, ma'am, ma'am.

- No, what's happened?

- It's okay, okay, nothing happened.

What is it?

Nothing happen, it's okay.

Joel!

- He tried to kill me!

I'll kill this son of a bitch!

No, officer!

Officer, that man is my brother!

That's her brother.

- I'm Mrs. Norah Vincent.

My husband is Mr. Vincent.

Don't treat him like a common criminal.

He hasn't done anything!

He's Joel Delaney, I've got cards here to prove...

- Lady, clear the way!

- Where are you taking him? - Bellevue, where do you think?

Joel!

Joel!

Joel!

I'm Mrs. Norah Benson,

I'd like some information.

- Excuse me, miss.

- I'm anxious about... - Admissions.

No, we don't have that information.

We don't have that information, I'm sorry.

- I'm anxious about the condition of my brother.

- Everybody's anxious, lady.

Just have a seat over there like everybody else.

- Look, I'm Mrs. Norah Benson.

My former husband, Ted Benson, is the surgeon here.

- No, you're kidding?

My former husband is Joel crenshaw, the plumber.

Maybe they know each other.

- See here, I want information

about my brother, Joel Delaney.

Now, if I don't get it from you,

I shall have to report you. Do you understand?

- You want to report me? Use the payphone.

Hello?

- Hello, marta.

This is Norah, I'm terribly sorry to disturb you.

Is Ted there, it's an emergency.

- Oh, Norah, just a minute.

Ted.

- Who is it?

- It's Norah, another emergency.

Thank you.

Yes, Norah, what is it this time?

Ted, I'm sorry to disturb you but Joel...

- Joel? - Is in trouble.

He tried to attack a man...

- He tried to attack whom?

And where did they take him?

Behevue?

All right, but only for a minute,

we're going out.

Norah, are you sure this is an emergency?

We have tickets to the theatre.

Now look, with Peter it's an emergency.

With Carrie, it's an emergency.

With Joel, it is no urgency.

- I wouldn't have called you... - I'll see what I can do.

- I wouldn't call you if it weren't an emergency.

- Ted. - Wait here for me.

- I do apologise, marta, but after all, Joe! Is my brother.

- Yes, I hope my husband can help him.

- Yeah.

Right.

All right, thank you.

Oh, I think he means me.

- He's under sedation, apparently there's no danger.

They don't know what it is, and they won't know

until they get a chance to run some tests.

He's on his way to the psychiatric ward?

- What could have happened to him, Ted?

- Drugs possibly, bad trip? - No, no, not Joel, impossible.

- Look, marta and I are late.

You and I have talked about Joel before. Enough is enough.

- Don't you have some opinion?

- I really don't know at all.

- Did he say anything about anything?

They'll find out, just let them handle it.

- His keys, did they take his keys?

- They take all his personal effects

and they return them when he's released.

We've got to go.

- But you see, he has a cat.

A stray cat he found in the rain!

- That's wonderful, I'll call you.

Maria!

- I'm Mrs. Norah Benson. - What you want?

- My brother Joel Delaney lives in apartment 5a.

Could I have the key to that apartment please?

- You stay here.

- You're the man who said my brother tried to attack you.

Why did you say that?

He never would've done such a thing unless he was provoked.

- Here, take it.

- Hello, Norah, what are you doing here?

- What's happened to your finger? - Oh, nothing. It's just an accident.

Where's Joel?

He's had some trouble.

- What happened?

- Police say he tried to attack a man.

The police? Is he in jail?

- No, he's in bellevue.

- Really?

I doubt if Joel would try to attack anyone.

He probably tried to kill himself.

That's much more like Joel.

What do you mean?

Oh, Norah,

You know how Joe! Is.

- No I don't know how Joel is,

but apparently you do, so would you please tell me?

- Sometimes he threatened, that's all.

When his dark side showed.

He used to call me up and I'd come over.

Why don't you pull up a chair, Norah,

and I'll tell you a little bit more about Joel.

- Thank you, I'm late for lunch now. - Just give me the cat please.

My car is in the street.

I'll give you a lift, if you like?

- Thank you. What is that?

- That was done by the kid

who used to hang around with Joel.

He left all this stuff here.

Jesus, he was weird.

- What does it mean?

- Joel told me once, but I've forgotten.

It's puerto rican, I know that.

Stop it, no, no, don't touch, no!

Stop it, no, no, don't do that, no!

I want to go!

I want to go!

- Hi, Norah.

Let's go over there.

- I went down and got your cat and took it home.

You went all that way?

Tell me what happened?

- You tried to attack a man, Joel.

- What? - Mr. Perez.

- Who? - The super.

- The super? - Mm-hmm.

- Why would I want to even hurt him?

- I don't know. - Norah, that's ridiculous.

You know me, I wouldn't hurt anyone.

- Have you been taking drugs?

- Norah, I'm so square I don't even smoke grass.

The only drugs I've taken are the stuff

they pumped into me when I got here.

- Well, then what's wrong with you?

- I don't know.

Why did you attack the man?

- Joel.

Don't lie to me.

I know I didn't arrive in time to help you,

but I saw it with my own eyes.

- Norah, believe me.

I don't remember any of that.

- I don't think you should.

Joel, why do you live down there with those people?

- Oh Norah, that's another life. You wouldn't know that.

Look, I'm not naive.

I know there's poverty around,

but one doesn't have to seek it out.

I don't have to. And you don't have to either.

- And you know it. - You only see what you want to.

- Who else was with you the other night?

- Nobody.

Nobody, I was, I was getting dressed

to go to your house for dinner.

And then I was here in bed.

In this ward with all these people around.

- You know you must've taken something.

- No, I didn't.

- The doctors think you took LSD.

Now, all you have to do is admit it

and you could walk right out of here.

- They'll let me go?

- In the care of a private psychiatrist, Erika lorenz.

You've known her since you were a little boy.

All I have to do is call her,

and tell her that you've admitted to taking drugs,

and that's the end of it.

- Okay. I took some acid, call her.

- And you'll stay with me.

Oh, it'll be like old times, Joel.

We'll have such fun together.

- Oh Mr. Delaney.

- Do come in now, so glad to see you. - Oh hello, Charles.

- How are you, let me help you. - Oh, that's all right. I can do it.

- Oh, it's a pleasure Mr. Delaney.

- It's a pleasure. - Well, thank you.

Just go on into the living room

and make yourself at home.

I'm sure Dr. Lorenz will be with you in just a minute.

Thank you, Charles.

- You know, I'm only here because

they said they'd keep me in bellevue unless I agreed to see you.

- Well, I know how you feel Joel,

but you see, we do have to spend an hour a day together for a while.

- Oh, come on now, you know, there's nothing wrong with me.

- Look, Joel, Justin still sees a few patients.

Would you feel more comfortable with him?

- As long as I've got to do it, it doesn't matter to me.

I still don't see why we have to go through with this whole thing.

- Joel, you were committed because you tried to kill a man.

Now I know that you have no recall of this episode,

but we're here to try and find out why.

- Well, what am I supposed to tell you, if I can't remember anything?

- Why don't you bring me up to date?

Now, I was always intrigued why you went back

to live in the east village when you came back from tangiers.

- Oh, for Christ's sake, Erica.

You and Norah are really two of a kind. You know it?

- No, seriously.

I'd like to know why.

- It's very simple.

I feel at home down there.

Why?

- I don't know.

I never feel alone.

There's always somebody to talk to.

Some people down there are really fantastic.

Like this friend of mine,

tonio Perez, the guy that gave me his apartment.

We used to spend hours just sitting around and talking

and listening to music, you know?

- Puerto rican?

- Yeah.

What did you talk about?

- Everything.

That's about the only really close friend I've ever had.

He stands for everything Norah hates.

Joel? I have a robe here.

Huh?

What're you doing?

Joel, stop!

Don't! You're getting me absolutely soaked!

Stop it!

- Cut it out! - Strikes again!

Oh, stop it.

Cut it out!

When is Gonna take us to the movies anyway.

- Right after... mrs Benson? - Yes?

Dinner will be ready in about 10 minutes. It will be on time.

Thank you.

- Does she have any boyfriends?

- Veronica.

I wouldn't have the vaguest idea.

- Why not?

- Well, she's very secretive about her private life.

Anyway, she's taking a typing course,

so I'll very likely lose her to some company,

where she'll meet a nice young puerto rican man

who will make her quite happy.

- I think there's something sexy about her.

Joel.

- Ah, Norah, don't be so serious.

I didn't know you kept this.

- Oh, I've kept lots of mother's things.

Well, I didn't.

Do you have many lovers?

Who? Me?

I have suitors.

Not the best of everyone.

- Do you go to bed with them all?

- Sometimes.

Anyway, that's my business.

How about you?

How's it been for you? How was tangiers?

- I met a lot of women like you in tangiers.

- What do you mean?

- Women like you, who go all the way

to tangiers to get laid.

And then when they come back, they haven't changed at all.

Do you sleep with lots of people?

- Oh, Joel. Quit it.

- How many, how many a night?

- Joel stop.

- Two at a time? - You ever have two at a time?

- Will you stop. Get up and get dressed.

Dinner's almost ready.

Joel, where are you? I know you're there.

J” yeah, a brand new day j'

j' may be the end of me I

Joel, you're hurting me!

You're hurting...

You hurt me.

What have I ever done to you?

Tomorrow's my birthday.

Norah's having a party for me.

You're invited.

I can't wait.

Yay, uncle Joel!

Yay, uncle Joel!

- Okay, get his presents now.

- You like it? - Yeah, that's really swell.

- I like it - this one's from Peter.

Mom really bought it.

- You didn't buy this for me? - No, mom did.

- You let your mother buy it?

What the hell?

Oh, jeez...

- Yay! - Yay, uncle Joel!

- This is from Clancy. - A present from a dog?

- You didn't tell me you got him that.

- What the hell, no I'm not gonna do it.

What is it?

- Oh, I see! - It's a pen!

- Thank you.

- Oh, happy birthday, Joel!

- No, no, not a shake hands.

Give him a real kiss, go on.

- Yes, that's what I'd like, some champagne.

A poem.

- A socialite out of nantucket.

Joel, not that one.

Veronica, bring the cake, please.

- Yeah, hey, Veronica. - Don't burn the cake.

They'll say you're inefficient.

And Mrs. Benson would never forgive with the.

- You're just being silly.

- Sherry? - Hmm?

- Your earring is missing.

Did you know that?

Your earring is gone.

- I must've lost it, Norah.

- Wait a minute, Norah.

I, Joel Delaney

Earring, earring,

Sorry, I'm going home.

Sherry!

- Joel, what was that all about?

I didn't know you spoke Spanish.

- I don't speak Spanish.

- There's no need to lie to me, Joel. - Just a few words.

- There's no need to lie.

- Why should I lie, for Christ's sake?

- Come on, - I'm not lying

- come in and go to bed.

Veronica, forgive him, he just can't take drink.

What did he say to you? I didn't even realise he spoke Spanish.

- If you don't mind, I'd like to go home.

I'll clean up in the morning.

Here, she dropped that.

- I'll take it to her tomorrow.

- I didn't even have time to brush my teeth.

- Oh, I bet. - You're the one that was in the bathroom

- for an hour or so. - Okay, the thing is

you have to get up earlier, that's all.

- But, you wake us up late...

- Well, you fool around in the morning all the time.

Have a good lunch. Maybe a movie tonight.

- No peanut butter and jelly. - Hey.

- Okay, bye. - Bye, mom.

- Hey, I'll race you to the bus. - No... okay.

Sherry?

Sherry?

Sherry?

Sherry?

Yes?

My name is Brady.

I'm with the police department.

I'd like to speak with Mrs. Norah Benson.

Are, uh... you Mrs. Benson.

- No, sir.

Please come in. She's very upset.

- Thank you.

Mrs. Benson?

- I'm detective Brady. - How do you do?

- This is my assistant. - How do you do?

- I'm sure you're busy. - So we won't take up too much of your time.

Just a few questions about Sherry Talbot.

- Please sit down. - Thank you.

- Well, don't get up, please.

Sit.

Now.

What can I do to help you?

- Well, Mrs. Benson, I'd like to know what you know.

I understand that Ms. Talbot was here last night.

- Yes, that's right.

- Yes.

I understand you had a little birthday party.

- Yes. You understand a great deal.

- I pick up a little here, and a little there.

Where's Mr. Delaney?

- He's out at the moment.

- He's not back at bellevue, is he?

- No.

All right. Sure like to see him.

Mrs. Benson, do you know if he has any

puerto rican friends?

- Possibly?

- Well, it's a funny thing

that all of a sudden here we have a case

just like three others we had last summer.

The same thing, you know,

head cut off, hair tied onto something.

Those girls were all puerto rican girls.

I suppose that's why they didn't get much space in the newspaper.

We thought we hadn't figured out at the time.

Some kid. Tonio, uh...

- Perez.

- Hmmm. Perez. But he disappeared.

And those people up in Spanish Harlem,

they just won't talk to us.

You ever been up there, Ms. Benson?

I've driven through it.

- You ought to go up sometime to that big market

they have up there.

Took my wife up once,

she said she got some good bargains.

But she says you have to be kind of careful

picking and choosing.

I suppose you women know all about that, huh?

Where is he, Mrs. Benson?

Call him for me, will you please?

- Veronica, call Mr. Delaney.

- Do you have any children?

- Oh, detective Brady. - You even know their names.

- Joel Delaney?

My name's Brady.

This is my assistant. We're detectives.

Why don't you come down to the station with us,

where we can have a talk.

I don't want to bother your sister here anymore.

I'm sure she has things to do.

Won't take long.

I'll have you back a couple hours.

That's a promise.

- Okay. If I can help.

I didn't want her to go last night.

- Joel.

- I'll be back in a little while.

- Thank you Mrs. Benson.

- Carrie, is uncle Joel home yet?

- No.

- Well let me speak to Veronica, then, honey.

- She's gone.

- Gone, what do you mean gone, gone shopping?

- No, she left a note saying that she was gone

and she's not coming back.

Want me to read the note to ya?

Yes!

- Dear Mrs. Benson. I'm very sorry to have to write this,

but I can no longer work for you

and will not be coming back.

Please understand and give my love to the children.

Yours truly, Veronica savez.

Mom. Why would she go?

Oh, dear. I don't know.

Well, I'll find out.

I tell you what honey,

you and Peter stay there and watch television

until I come back.

I won't be gone long.

Now don't worry, huh?

Okay.

Today's air quality is considered unhealthy.

Tomorrow's is expected to remain the same.

24 hour city-wide levels

.095 parts per million sulphur dioxide.

Yes?

- Could I speak with Veronica please?

Veronica?

- Mrs. Benson, what are you doing here?

- Why did you quit, Veronica? - Why did you leave?

- Well, I no longer work for you.

- I know that, but could we talk, please?

Please, won't you invite me in?

- No, wait here a moment.

Come with me please.

- Why couldn't I go in, Veronica?

- Mrs. Benson, there were some things

you kept me away from,

and there are some things I keep you away from.

- What do you mean? - It's quite simple.

You used to say, "Veronica, leave this alone.

Veronica, leave that alone."

You know, you people are not the only ones

with things to keep to yourselves.

- Veronica, I know I can't force you to answer my questions,

and I know how you hate to see people beg,

but Veronica, you're human

and you must realise that I need help.

- Mrs. Benson. Do you have your police, your hospitals,

your doctors?

Use them. You know them.

- Veronica, it's just possible that the police

can't find out anything about this.

It's just possible that the people in my world

can't get into your world,

that no one will talk to them, you know?

How will they find out about tonio

and the Perez people and the killings.

But I have to find out

because I don't intend to lose my brother.

- And you want to find out through us?

Yes.

- But are you willing to accept and believe what you're told?

Are you going to listen?

- I will do anything for my brother. Anything.

Okay.

- There is a Botanica. - A man named Don Pedro will be there.

I'll write you the address.

- A Botanica?

- If you can believe in Don Pedro, he can help you.

If not, you're wasting your time.

- Will you come with me?

- No, I'm finished with all of this.

I've given you more than I should.

Now I've understood you.

You understand me.

- Thank you, Veronica.

I'm looking for Don Pedro.

Are you Don Pedro?

- Yes, I am Don Pedro.

- Veronica savez told me you would help me.

It's my brother. He's in terrible trouble.

- Why don't you go to the police?

They will help you.

- No, Veronica said you would help me.

- Well, I don't know.

- I'll pay whatever you want.

I'm willing to pay.

- Our practises are not for sale.

You can't buy belief.

- I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend you.

- People like yourself,

you try to buy god.

And your mind is closed.

All you have open is your eyes

and they're full of concern.

Your brother means much to you, huh?

- Everything.

- Can you bring him to me?

- No. No, I couldn't do that.

- Come to this address tomorrow morning

and bring something that belongs to him.

Mrs. Benson...

We know all about Joel Delaney and tonio Perez.

We will help.

We see you tomorrow.

- Yes.

Thank you.

Please, would you take me to 74th and park?

- I'm off duty, lady.

- Please? Please, 74th and park?

Carrie?

Joel?

- Norah? What is it?

- Joel, let me in. - Who's in there with you?

- Nobody.

What is it? What's the matter with you?

Joel

Let me in Joel.

Who was in here?

- Nobody's in here. - Who were you speaking to?

- No one.

- Why is this window open?

Aren't you cold then?

- No.

- Where are the children?

- Where are the children? - I don't know, they went out,

took the dog for a walk or something.

- Joel, what did the police say?

- They said they knew I was in tangiers last summer,

so they let me go.

- Listen to me.

Do you still see that tonio Perez?

- I got a headache, Norah. - Leave me alone, will ya?

- Go on, get out of here, will ya!

- Oh, darling.

I came as soon as I could.

I tried to call you when I heard about Sherry

but the phone was busy.

- Very badly.

Very badly. It's been just terrible.

- Jerry, may I have a Martini on the rocks?

Certainly, Dr. Lorenz.

- Has Joel ever mentioned

a puerto rican friend of his named tonio Perez?

- Yes, a number of times.

- Tell me about him, Erica. I have to know.

- Joel and tonio have been close friends

for some time, Norah.

- The police think that perhaps tonio Perez

is the person that killed Sherry.

They believe he's the killer of those girls

in central park last year.

They can't find him.

They say he's disappeared.

- Well Norah look, you can't assume that tonio is a killer,

just because the police find him suspicious.

We leave those matters to the authorities.

Your Martini, Dr. Lorenz.

- I want Joel to stop seeing him.

I want the relationship between he and tonio to end.

- Norah. You know,

I really think that you should make an effort to understand

why the friendship between Joel and tonio exists.

Joel and tonio have a great deal in common.

Now, although tonio came from

an entirely different environment,

he seems to have had a similar psychological background.

You know, I don't think that you realise how deeply Joel was affected

by your mother's breakdowns and her final suicide.

He felt totally abandoned.

- Erica, after mother killed herself,

Joel was not abandoned.

I did not abandon him.

Every time he wanted me, I was there.

Whenever he needed me, I was there. He was not abandoned.

- Norah, now that's not entirely true.

You see, previously he'd been dominated by your mother

and then by you.

So the contrast was so severe,

it produced a deep hostility in Joel.

Apparently, tonio harbours similar hostilities.

- I don't wanna hear your theories.

I just don't want to hear any of these theories.

Just tell me how I can help my brother.

- Norah. Tomorrow we'll get into this

much more deeply during Joel's session.

Now please leave these things to me

and don't do anything foolish.

You promise?

- Promise.

- Let me have your coat, Mrs. Benson, please.

Through here, please.

Mrs. Perez came to see me about her son tonio.

- I know all about your son, Mrs. Perez.

- It is good that you understand, Mrs. Benson.

Things are much simpler when you believe.

- Believe, what do you mean?

- When you believe what you say

that tonio is influencing your brother.

- Yes, and I would prefer that tonio

not see Joel any longer.

If he does, I shall have to report your son

to the police, Mrs. Perez.

- Then you would be reporting your brother.

- Mrs. Perez came to me

because her son's spirit has entered your brother's body.

What?

- Tonio is dead.

Six months ago. He died.

Oh.

This is absurd. Tonio was in my house just recently.

- Well the spirit of Antonio.

- Tonio's spirit.

- Oh, not his spirit. In the flesh.

Oh, this is ridiculous.

- Have you seen my son?

- Please.

This is my son.

- Please sit down Mrs. Benson.

Please?

- That is tonio.

He died before his time.

He never had a chance to be good.

I was never with him.

His father abandoned us.

Antonio had to live with his grandma.

I never see him.

I work hard.

His grandmother died.

Antonio became...

Bad.

He became so evil.

He did so many evil things.

He tried to kill me.

- Those girls. Did he kill those girls?

- Yes.

His father find out and he killed him.

He killed my son to take this disgrace from us.

Tonio's restless spirit needed a home.

Your brother and Antonio were close, close friends.

And the spirit of Antonio

entered your brother's body.

A restless spirit.

- There is a common sorrow here.

Mrs. Benson, will you please come over here?

Mrs. Benson, these people came to help you.

Did you bring the, something that belong to your brother?

Give it to me please. Thank you.

Will help us catch tonio

to lift him from your brother.

Tonio's restless spirit will enter one of us in this room

and I will try to throw it out.

One! One!

One!

Please, please, please!

- No, no, no, no, it's okay.

- Senora, tonio don't want to come out.

You must bring your brother.

Then we do it again.

But you have to believe.

I feel that you don't believe and you have to believe.

- Should I take this?

Thank you.

- Bring back your brother Mrs. Benson,

and please believe.

Believe, that's the only way out.

You have to believe.

That's the only way we can help you.

But if you don't believe we can do nothing

to help you out, or your brother.

Mom, mom!

Joel's going crazy!

- Mom, mom! It's Joel, he's freaked out!

- What's the matter? Thank you.

- Hurry, hurry mom! - What?

It was just terrible!

- What do you mean?

Is he in the house?

He was screaming and yelling in Spanish!

Mom, what are we gonna do?

Joel, let me in!

Run away, go on, go on.

Joel!

Joel! Let me in!

Joel!

Open the door!

Joel, please!

Joel! Joel please!

Charles, where are they?

- In the bedroom packing.

- Okay, take the children please and the dog.

- But Mrs. Benson, you'll have to wait.

- I want to talk to them privately.

- I'm afraid they won't be able to speak to you just now.

- Charles, something terrible has happened.

Now take the children into the kitchen.

Erica, Erica?

Where are you going?

You can't leave.

- I'm just going to Chicago to deliver a lecture.

What's wrong, Norah?

- I think I'm going out of my mind.

Something terrible has happened.

- My god, Norah. What's wrong?

- It's Joel. - Joel?

- They say Joel is possessed.

- Who's they? Who's been telling you that?

- I didn't want to tell you, but I went to an espiritismo meeting

this morning.

They know all about Joel.

They know all about tonio.

They know all about the relationship.

And then they started sympathising with me.

And you know why?

Because tonio Perez is dead!

Mrs. Perez told me herself,

tonio Perez was killed by his father six months ago.

Now they're telling me

that his spirit is in Joel.

- Tonio Perez is dead?

- I know it sounds silly,

but I went by my house just now.

Joel... was babbling in the hallway in Spanish.

I don't know what to think...

How can this be possible?

Please help me!

- Norah, listen.

Norah...

Instead of saying, as I would,

that the person has a fragmented ego,

identity problem or what have you,

these people say that a spirit has entered him.

If he's weak, vulnerable,

but in the last analysis

call it insanity or possession,

- it adds up to the same thing. - Insanity? No!

Possession, insanity, fragmented ego.

- Are you trying to tell me that my brother

is so weak and so vulnerable

that he can be invaded from the outside

by a maniac who is dead?

- I refuse to believe it! I won't believe! - Norah...

- Norah, please listen to me.

Joel is not possessed.

Now, that's ridiculous.

He is extremely disturbed

and he should be hospitalised immediately,

but there's no time to discuss that.

Now the important thing is your safety

and the safety of the children.

You can't go back to the house, Norah.

You must leave the city and take the children with you.

I don't have any place else to go.

- All right. What will you do to Joel?

- I'll arrange that Joel is taken care of.

Now, please, don't worry.

Norah, we just have no time now.

- Now please go. - You won't hurt him.

- You have to trust me,

- you have to trust me, Norah - you won't hurt him?

- Look, I'll call Ted. - I'll tell him you're leaving.

I'll make arrangements for a car.

- You won't hurt Joel? - Of course not.

Charles, would you call a taxi for Mrs. Benson?

- Thank you.

- All right, children. Come on. - Out you go.

Come on, guys.

Carrie in the front seat. Peter in the back.

Whatever insurance you have.

All right.

Okay.

- Okay, if you'll sign on the red line and initial inside the two circles.

- Thank you.

- Ah, thank you, Charles.

I knew I should forget something.

- Come on, Peter.

Take the bar off for me, honey, would you?

Oh, it's nice to be back.

- Can we go fishing tonight? - I've got the bloodworms.

- Oh, yeah, could we mom? - No, sweetheart. It's too late.

- Then can we at least go down by the beach?

- Yeah, please? - No, no. Maybe in the morning.

It's too late now. Now off with your clothes.

Hang them up in the bedroom.

Keep it neat. Take the sheets off, Carrie.

That sheet off the other sofa, too.

Wooooh...

Hey mom, look, here's a postcard.

- Who from?

- It's from Molly. - She must have written it last summer.

- Oh, yes, you left it here.

We'll take the boards off the windows later.

Why don't you feed Clancy, dear.

- He must be starving. - Okay.

And I'll make some sandwiches, also.

- Veronica showed me how. - All right.

- Good, I'm starving.

What kind you gonna make, Peter?

Carrie! Peter!

Where are you?

Carrie!

Peter!

Carrie!

Hi, mom!

- Mom, look, we caught a fish!

- Why did you go and not tell me?

- But mom, you were sleeping.

- Yeah, we didn't think you'd mind.

- What you got in there?

A flounder.

- Oh! - We got a bag, too.

- Come on, let's go back to the house.

- But can't we go get Clancy?

- He ran off somewhere. - No, he'll be all right.

- But he'll get lost, he doesn't know his way around, mom.

- He'll come back. Come on.

- Carrie!

- Oh, no, Peter, stop!

Stop it, Peter!

- Take off your slippers and your boots.

Put them in the corner of the room. What do you want for breakfast?

Eggs, huh? You want boiled or fried?

Children...

- Ahhh! Mommy!

Help!

Let me go!

Stop it, Joel! Stop!

Don't you ever do that to me, you hear?

Pick 'em up.

- Pick it up.

Sit there. Come on.

I'm a house guest.

Don't forget that.

Be nice, and I'm nice.

Be bad, and I'm angry.

Have you ever cut fish?

I cut a lot of fish when I was your age.

Go ahead. Cut it!

Hey, stupido! Give me that.

You take it like this.

You see? And then... ah?

You open it up.

You see?

You wanna eat that? Huh?

No.

Not yet.

Okay.

We eat later.

No one's hungry, yet.

Now we play a game.

Where I come from, we make our own games.

No television.

Lady, you see them dominoes?

I wanna play dominoes.

You play?

Get the box, ah?

Give me seven and you take seven.

Hey.

Come on.

You got a pretty neck. Just like your ma.

- Joel, please don't hurt her. - Please stop.

- Lady, you better believe it.

- Please don't do that, Joel. Please.

- Rich people don't beg.

You're losing that game.

A smart, rich kid like you?

Your mommy's not training you right.

She's not giving you the right education.

How come you're not giving him the right education?

Can you wipe yourself?

- Yes.

- Yes.

She teach you to say yes?

Yes.

- You say "yeah" to me. You hear me?

You say "yeah" to me.

- Yes.

- Mommy! - Joel!

- Stop it! - Mommy!

Come on!

- Joel, get off me!

- Mommy! - It's all right.

- They've come to see us dance.

Hey, tell them to watch.

Tell them not to be stupid.

- Please don't shoot.

- He's got my children. - Okay.

- It's all right.

It's all right.

Are you getting tired?

- Too warm?

We must do something about that.

Take off your clothes.

Do what I tell you.

Tell him,

- Go ahead baby.

It's all right. Do it. We'll be all right.

Come on, take 'em off.

Are you cold?

I was always cold.

You never been cold in your life.

Dance, dance!

Come on, take 'em off.

Dance! All of you, dance!

See, dance! All of you!

- It's all right. - Let's give them a good show out there.

Mommy!

- Hey take them things.

Throw them out there.

Dance, dance.

- Dance! - Let him cover himself.

He's just a child.

- Bueno. Now we go in the kitchen and eat.

I'm hungry.

Come on, come on.

What do you got to eat?

No, in that shelf.

- Corn.

- Sweet peas.

Dog food.

Bring the dog food here.

Give it to the kid.

You open it.

- But it's Clancy's.

- He won't be needing it.

He killed him. He didn't have to do that.

- He's freezing! Let him get a blanket,

he's freezing! Go on honey, get a blanket.

- Come back soon or your mommy's gonna get it.

Put the food in the dish.

- Are you hungry?

No. No!

- We all gotta eat.

- But you first, okay? - No!

Get down and eat.

How can I use my hands?

I can't eat without my hands!

- I'll kill you!

Hh! Ahh

Oh!

Oh!

Run, run!

Children, run!

- Daddy! Ah!

- Get away from him, god!

No!

No, no!

- Norah? Norah?

Oh, Joel.
