After the ceremony, I'll have you transferred back to the hotel.

I'm also taking the liberty of contacting a real estate agent.

We need to talk.

I'm busy.

Who's the guy?

Not now, okay?

My sincerest apologies.

Welcome to what I'm sure is the beginning of exciting new lives as

citizens. If you'll raise your right hand and repeat after me. I hereby

on oath.

I hereby declare on oath.

That I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure.

That I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure.

All allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince.

Did you see the look on that poor woman's face?

I know she's blind, but she acted like she'd seen the devil himself.

There are pretenders among us.

I was taken from my family.

36 ,000 is already demonstrating more talent than any of our others.

How many people died because of what I thought up?

Since I broke out, I've spent every moment searching for my past. He's a

pretender. A genius who can become anyone that he wants to be.

Lucinda wants him alive.

Preferably. He defends the weak and abused.

Life's a gift.

Are

you a

doctor? I am today.

Pulled a still frame off the front gate security camera.

Well, he signed in under the name P. Mark.

Sounds Thai.

Cambodian. Run it through our Interpol server. See what pops up.

He has a tattoo.

Tattoo? On the back of his right hand, it's a snake eating itself.

Make a note.

Think Lyle is up to something?

I know Lyle is up to something. The question is what?

Just make sure these invoices are signed and initialed.

Agent Berger, INS.

Um, no, sir, I can't deport someone because you don't like the price of

cigarettes. Well, I suggest you shop at another store.

No, sir, that's not a joke. That's America.

Can I help you, Mr... Agent Ellis, Jared Ellis.

I was sent down about a blind woman.

Sent down?

Yes, from D .C.

I was working a case outside of Stockbridge when we got the call from

office. From what agent?

Jack.

Excuse me.

Carol, is Jack Rinker still in his office?

He's gone.

Would you get me his car phone?

Thanks.

I give up.

One hour and all I get is her name and the same thing over and over again.

I'm fluent in five Asian languages.

I'll be damned if I know what she's trying to say.

She's thirsty.

She would like a drink of water.

You speak Cambodian.

Doesn't everybody?

I've got Jack Rinker on the car phone.

Should I put him through?

Have a good vacation She's all yours

Can we try this in English?

Could you tell me what happened today at the ceremony?

I mean you no harm.

Well, you're my second surprise visit from D .C. today.

Second. Agent Jared Ellis.

Jared.

6 '2", 180 pounds, dark hair, dark eyes. You know him.

We met.

May I see your identification?

I'm Agent Green. This is Agent Hill, Internal Division.

I realize this is all very confusing, but I can't help you unless I know

going on.

It was reported that you kept saying the word butcher over and over again at the

ceremony. Can you tell me why?

Where is he?

He's in the last interrogation room right down the hall.

Damn! This problem must be dealt with immediately. I don't understand.

The woman you saw at the ceremony this morning is an unfortunate link to my

past, which now makes her a link to yours.

I'm sensitive to your concerns, but if I'm not mistaken, she was also blind.

Underestimating the meek has brought more than one army to its knees.

We have a very good army here.

Taken? By whom?

By Jared.

I suggest you tell your soldiers this is war.

Here, let me get that.

Is that a picture of your family?

Mother.

Father.

Brother.

Where are they now?

Dead.

All murdered by the butcher.

All murdered by the butcher.

Mock came to the United States three months ago from Venezuela.

I'm more interested in his connection to Lyle. Well, I don't know if it's

related, but Lyle's made three business trips to Caracas in the past 12 months.

As far as I can tell, the center has no tie to anyone or anything in that

country. Not on paper, you mean.

I did hear something else. I was in the bathroom, and I overheard a couple

sweepers saying that Willie had a close encounter with Jared today.

Where? The men's room, SL10.

The encounter with Jared, you boob. Oh, Virginia.

Across the river.

But not all. Willie has been assigned special temporary duty to Lyle's team.

Where are you going?

A little talk with baby brother.

I'm going to have a little bit here.

In a hurry?

Extreme. Hey, do you ever wonder why a Cambodian citizen would choose to live

Venezuela?

That's not interesting.

I suppose it could be the climate or the coffee. Or is it perhaps Venezuela has

no extradition treaty with the West?

Something on your mind, sis?

Who's Keymock?

And why is Raines' guard dog babysitting him?

Shouldn't you be out hunting for Jared?

Funny you should ask that, considering I heard your people had a close encounter

with him today.

Can I get a little privacy?

No. Now, do you want to talk to me, or should I go put my foot down on Willie's

throat?

Mok is a former leader of the Cambodian Freedom Fighters. He fled Southeast Asia

after Saigon fell. He went underground for his own safety.

What's he doing here?

We met in Thailand about five years ago. He helped me out of a situation.

I promised to return the favor. Trust me, our little brush with Jared was

coincidence.

Go on.

Locke needed a sponsor to become a U .S. citizen.

I pulled some strings, got him a commission as a cultural liaison at the

port authority.

Now, I suggest you refocus your attention on Jared and climb off my back

I run out of paper.

Is that a threat?

What do you think?

You must really like sugar dates.

Actually, they're for a friend.

These prayer beads belong to... Who are you? I'm a friend of Kim Chase.

I need to ask you some questions.

I built this for the other Cambodians in the area, a little piece of what we

left behind.

Come, we'll talk in the back room.

My country is very beautiful, but it has seen much pain. The war with America,

the genocidal march of Pol Pot.

The leader of the Khmer Rouge.

Yes. Please, sit.

Nearly 25 years have passed, but I can still smell the burning bodies.

I keep these to remember.

To never forget what man is capable of.

Kim Che was tortured by the Khmer Rouge.

Worse, I'm afraid.

I had a brother who lived in her village.

Kim Che's family was at home when the soldiers came.

Her father, her mother, her brother were executed in front of her.

You see, she wasn't born blind.

It is told that she attacked the officer in charge to try and save her family.

That she drew his blood with her bare hands.

She was six years old.

This man.

Yes. This man is Colonel Chen Fan.

He was officer in the Khmer Rouge.

An evil, killing monster.

Did you witness Thawne commit these murders?

No.

The only witness still alive is Kim Che.

Some of the worst officers fled to the Golden Triangle and flourished in the

heroin trade.

If Colonel Thawne is here, then Kim Che's life is in great danger.

And now, I fear, so is yours.

Turns out Mock is being sworn in by the Port Authority tomorrow afternoon.

And you intend to be there?

Miles knows his ticket to the top is still Jared, but all he seems to care

is making good on a promise he made five years ago to a virtual stranger.

No point.

There's more to this than we know. And this Mock character is the key.

Well, maybe Jared will even make a surprise appearance.

Well?

It's like Mock just appeared out of thin air.

There's no birth certificate, school records, nothing. Records can disappear.

They can also be erased.

I tried to open up a computer file on Mok I had found earlier today to double

-check some information.

It was gone.

Wiped out.

It's like any history of this man is... Being destroyed before our eyes.

Fine. He told me he met Mok in Thailand.

Bruce, take that photo. Run it again for a visual match, and this time isolate

the primary search to Southeast Asian targets' books.

magazines, newspapers, and hurry. This guy could be gone before we find out who

he really is.

Kimchi.

Let me see.

I know you don't want to talk about what happened, but I'm not going to just go

away.

I never had a real home.

I understand pain.

And loss.

Tell me about your blindness.

It was the time of year zero.

Pol Pot and his followers wanted to stop Tom.

Begin the war with themselves as the only power.

The killings began with the teachers.

Then the spiritual leaders. And finally, the artists.

Your mother and your father.

They were writers of poetry.

Words of comfort and joy to the people.

Colonel Don.

Make my father read from his own book.

Then he killed him and the other members of my family.

This was the day the son went away.

I want to help the son return for you.

But I have to examine your eyes.

Can I do that?

I feel your pain and loneliness You have lost many people

that you love

I've checked Kim Che's eyes.

There's no sign of damage or disease.

Have you ever encountered something called terror silence?

First cases surfaced after the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Hospitals began seeing patients quite unable to communicate.

And yet these people showed no signs of physiological damage.

Their afflictions were psychosomatic reactions to the horrific savagery they

witnessed.

I believe that Kim Che's blindness is a form of terror silence.

Well, the human mind is capable of almost anything in order to protect its

She doesn't deserve a life of darkness, Sidney.

What approach should I take?

Some cases.

The stricken have responded by confronting the object of their terror.

very careful. If she's pushed too hard, she may never emerge from the darkness.

Sidney!

Oh, by the way, Miss Parker is planning a little trip across the river this

afternoon. It seems she has become interested in local politics.

A certain Port Authority Commission hearing, to be more precise. I thought

be interested to know.

Very interested.

Kim Che.

I believe you have something that's known as a conversion disorder.

I do not understand.

When something emotional, something dramatic happens to a person.

It can manifest itself in a physiological way.

In your case, blindness.

Can the disorder be cured?

I believe it can.

But... What?

You're going to have to face the thing that triggered it.

You're going to have to face Colonel Thawne.

He's going to remain a free man unless you step forward.

Kim Chi, there's so much beauty in the world. Don't let this monster take it

away from you.

I have loved a dead man for so many years.

Trying to erase the face of the killer.

I cannot let the monster back in again.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

It's okay, it's okay.

We'll find another way.

We'll find another way.

I found a picture of Mock who got a hit from a Bangkok newspaper.

A story that ran five years ago.

Turns out Mock's real name is Chen Thong and that he was some military bigwig

with the communists.

So Lyle lied about Mock. What a surprise.

What's the thing?

Well, I would have taken the time to have the newspaper translated, but I

you spoke the language.

Well, I'm not getting it all, but apparently Lyle was arrested for

couple of prostitutes. Lyle?

What is with this guy?

First it's the murder of Shae Lynn, then it's the two sisters in college, and

then the bloody torture chamber, and now this?

Parker, you okay?

Fine.

I don't need excuses. Just get it done. I want any remaining trace of Thon's

previous life wiped out. I want to make sure the suppliers in Thailand are ready

to move.

Excuse me, Mr. Lyle.

Mr. Mott called and asked if you could meet him right away. He said he has new

information concerning the woman from the ceremony.

He's waiting for you downstairs in his car.

Lucy. Yes, sir?

That's a lovely dress you're wearing.

Thank you, sir.

Driver, where's... What the hell is this? Where's Mock?

I am sorry, sir.

Well, there's been a slight change of plan.

You didn't think I'd let you sleep through all the fun, did you?

Take this thing off my head.

Oh, quit your whining.

You all get away with this.

They'll be looking for me. Meaning Colonel Thun?

You didn't think I was going to allow you to let that genocidal maniac free

world again, now did you?

That's a done deal.

Oh, yes.

The port commission thing.

Not a totally idiotic plan.

You have your guy appointed to the port commission, and then you have an open

pipeline to smuggling heroin from Southeast Asia.

It's just business.

Just business.

With a man who butchered thousands of innocent people in cold blood.

You know my philosophy, Jared.

Don't ask, don't tell.

Besides, you and I both know you can't show your face at that hearing. Miss

Parker will have a small army waiting for you.

Oh, Miss Parker.

Well, that could pose quite a problem, couldn't it?

Up to date.

What do you want from me?

Time.

I'm going to dial Miss Parker.

You're going to tell her that you captured me. You're going to give her

address here.

She's going to come down those stairs.

Trip. This wire... I think you can guess the rest.

If I refuse, that's not really an option.

When you used to torture me at the center, I had to apply a technique that

learned as a little boy.

To help block out the physical pain, I had to go to places in my mind.

You, on the other hand, have not perfected this particular survival

Have you?

Intimidating, isn't it?

I took it off this rancher in Montana who was abusing his cattle.

I know. You're thinking it's not the same thing.

You're right.

Cattle didn't deserve it.

That's how we make that phone call.

Interesting reading?

Or can't you believe what it says?

I've known you since you were a little girl, Parker.

I can tell when you're trying to hide something.

Just doesn't seem like the kind of thing you could say about a blood relation.

The story isn't about an assault.

It's about a double murder.

Lau was the prime suspect.

And according to the paper, he used an unidentified military source to cut a

deal with the police.

Colonel Thorn.

And that isn't all, is it?

These girls weren't just killed.

They were mutilated.

Some of their internal organs were ripped.

What?

Are you sure?

I hear you.

I'm on my way.

That was Lionel.

He's captured Jared.

I call this appointment session of the Port Authority Commission to order.

Today's business includes the confirmation of Mr. Keymock as cultural

the PAC.

Good morning, Mr. Mock. Mr. Lewin, gentlemen.

As I review the data before me, I have to say I have never in my 23 years as a

member of this council come across such an exemplary list of recommendations.

My life has been dedicated and devoted to serving my fellow man. I believe.

Each of us is given the opportunity to make a difference.

It is our obligation and duty to do our very best.

Well, if there aren't any objections, I suggest that we dispense with formality

and proceed to the vote. That would be a very bad idea.

Who are you?

Oh, it's not important.

It's the man to whom you're about to give the keys to the city you should

correctly identify.

You know him as Key Mock, scholar, humanitarian, family man.

But his real name is Colonel Chen Thon.

And his legacy consists of the torture and genocide of thousands of people.

Mr. Mock, do you know this man or understand any of these outrageous

accusations? Madam, my life is an open book. One you have sitting before you.

for this man, I can assume that he's confused me with someone else. What's

confusing is that you've been allowed to live this long.

Colonel Thon was the commander of an elite killing squad.

responsible for the cold -blooded murder of innocent men, women, and children.

This is nonsense.

I demand that you remove this... I realize all that sounds incredible, but

you would just suspend these proceedings long enough to investigate these

charges, you would overturn a law with torture, murder, and death!

Mr. Mott, can you speak to these charges?

America stands at... The last great hope for liberty.

A liberty many of my countrymen have fought and died for.

Let me just say, if I am this monster that I'm being accused of,

let there be one voice, one person, step forward and prove that

I'm guilty.

I agree.

Clearly this is meaningless without eyewitness testimony.

Is there anyone that can confirm these horrific accusations?

I can.

And you are? My name is Kim Che.

I was born in the Siam Valley of northern Cambodia.

And the man standing before you is responsible for the murderous death of

mother, father, and brother.

You witnessed these killings? I did. And you can confirm the identity of this

man that stands before us as this Colonel Thawne? This is ridiculous.

This woman is obviously blind.

How can she accurately identify anyone?

For so many years, I have lived in the dark.

Afraid of the memory of your face.

I will not be afraid anymore.

This is the man who killed my mother, my father, and my brother.

This is his blood.

Blood drawn by a terrified six -year -old girl.

And that was me.

I suggest that we seal the building and have security to hold the accused for

proper authority.

I'm attacking!

I'm attacking!

I'm attacking!

No!

Miss Parker, I know you're not in a very good mood having to spend the night

trapped with Mr. Lyle. Lord knows, anybody would be bummed out. Not to

being duped by Jared again. I mean, it's like the guy...

The guy gets inside your head.

You can't make a decision without him being two steps ahead of you. Go away.

I found out what the tattoo on Thon's hand means.

Congratulations.

It's a Cambodian symbol for cannibalism.

If you're thinking of jumping, I suggest you go up on the roof and do it right.

Still haven't mastered the curiously simple art of the knock.

You look terrible.

I had trouble sleeping last night.

Couldn't stop trying to figure out why Jared didn't finish you when he had the

chance. I now know the reason.

What's that?

He didn't want to kill the drama.

I mean, there are so many tasty...

Little secret left to be served out.

Not a very flattering picture, is it?

I know you killed those girls.

And after seeing that artwork on your arm, I can only imagine what happened to

the rest of them.

Well, you must not have finished the article.

Because I was acquitted of all the charges.

And as for the tattoo, well, it's just one of several.

I want to see the other.

You bought yourself out of jail and used a war criminal to broker the deal.

Well, you have been a busy little beaver.

I know.

Okay.

For the sake of argument, let's say that...

I did these horrible things you're accusing me of.

There's still no way to prove it. I have Mok, or Colonel Thawne, as it turns

out. I put the right deal on the table he'll offer up you and your psychopathic

sins on a silver platter.

No pun intended.

And to whom are you going to give this information?

The triumvirate, for starters. I'm sure they'd be very interested to know they

have a flesh -eating serial killer running their organization.

I cut a deal with Thawne, and you're finished.

Oh, I'm sure the colonel would be interested in your Oliver.

Yep. Of course he could hear it.

So I guess you didn't read the paper this morning, huh?

The authorities are calling it a tragic accident.

I prefer to think of it as karma.

I'm just crazy about leftovers.

Are you?

My God.

You're insane.

And that I take this obligation freely without any

mental reservation or purpose of evasion.

So help me God.

Congratulations. You are now all United States citizens.

I didn't think that you would come. Are you kidding me? I wouldn't have missed

it for the world.

How does it feel to be a citizen?

Like I finally have a home.

You heard that Colonel Thon died in a car accident.

I saw the paper, but you are wrong.

He died when you gave me the courage to face him.

What made you change your mind about confronting him?

A friend reminded me how much beauty there was in the world.

Thank you, John.

I hope you fire away to light the light back into your life.
