Jared Blashlair, we know that much. How long since he left?

About 24 hours. We got a cleanup crew taking the place apart as we speak.

Same old song and dance.

Who's the egghead in the go -kart? That's Dr. Gucci Tushin, the new head of

center's cleanup unit.

Credentials unpackable.

Yeah, he's from Calcutta.

Remind me to cancel the frozen steaks for Christmas.

Ah, Dr. Tushin. This is the infamous Miss Parker.

Excuse me for not standing.

Not a problem.

So, what did our little genius leave us to clean up this time?

I'm afraid it's a bit disturbing in nature.

Ah, so.

Yes.

It's a pain.

Ridiculous. Jared, wouldn't you enjoy it? I'm afraid I will have to disagree.

We ran a series of field tests on the blood residue of the syringes, and it

matched Jared's perfectly.

With what Jared's been thrown, addiction is a distinct possibility.

Jared's a junkie?

We also found this.

It's Jared's writing.

What, you think he left it here by accident?

Maybe he really is caught up in some kind of drug haze.

We've got one over here orbiting the building.

I don't know what he's on, but you're going to have to lock him down. He had a

personal injury. All right, no one's going to hurt you. You just want to make

sure you're okay.

Do this easy, okay, pal?

Come on.

Okay.

Nice and easy.

Nice and easy.

No! No! No, Mommy! No!

No! Mommy!

Daddy!

There are pretenders among us.

I was taken from my family. 36 ,000. He's already demonstrating more talent

any of our others.

How many people died because of what I thought up? Since I broke out, I've

every moment searching for my path.

He's a pretender.

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

The Santa wants him alive.

Preferably. He defends the weak and abused.

Life's a gift.

You a doctor?

I am today.

What do

we

got? Trouble. Better keep both eyes on this one.

Welcome to Vista House, Mr. Joe.

I am Dr.

Earl. I am your staff psychologist. I am here to help you with your recovery.

Understand that no one can stop you from using but you.

Check his bag.

Mr. Jones, I need you to sign this.

What is it? It is a consent form empowering us to place you in lockdown.

Lockdown? I don't like being locked up.

We need to take control during the initial period of your withdrawal. Now,

know that may sound extreme, but I believe our success rate speaks for

Thank you.

What do you got, Garrett?

I changed clothes, bathrobe, wallet, $48 cash, red notebook, blank.

I keep a journal.

Excellent. A big part of your recovery will be writing down a searching and

fearless moral self -inventory.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on, hold on.

We have a code of ethics around here. It's called the circle of trust.

You gain our trust, it comes back to you in the way of privileges.

Betray that trust, the circle is broken.

Consider this a warning.

I don't feel so good.

Get him a bucket.

I'm searching for a special man.

If you are handsome, emotionally secure, and have learned some of life's harder

lessons, we might have something in common.

How does it feel to be the mayor of Loserville? I read that for

Right.

What did you find out about Jared's latest clue?

The 10 -17 -76 clearly relates to October 17th, 1976.

The A -22 part has me stumped, though. It's either August or April 22nd, and it

could relate to SL -22. Maybe if you stop reading the want ads and... I'll be

damned. What? What is it? My lucky day, apparently.

A -22, section A, page 22. Bruce, go get the microfiche from the Blue Cove paper

dated October 17th, 1976.

Maybe we can find out why Jared has hopped up on heroin.

Sidney?

You all right?

Okay, I'm cured. Let me out of here. This is how it plays. The doctors are

the generals. They're sitting up there on the hill. They're watching the

All right, but I'm the grunt. I'm down there in the field. I'm looking out for

my buddies. You be my buddy there, Jared?

Sure, why not? Good answer. Okay, I bring you your meals. I supervise your

tests. I clean your clothes. I will even mop up your puke, man. The only thing I

ask in return is that you don't give me any trouble. This ain't easy, what

you're going to be going through here, but I can help make it a whole lot more

productive, okay?

Come on, we're going to make the kids

stop.

Do it up.

Unlet it.

Hey, it was privacy.

You're holding a cup, aren't you?

Not exactly the Four Seasons, but let's face it, he couldn't afford the Four

Seasons.

It's so cold in here.

You won't think so once the hot flashes kick in.

All right, you got a bucket for whatever comes up, and it'll come up, all right?

Trust me. I don't think I can do this. I just need a little something, you know,

to carry me through. You understand?

Come in for the night, please. I can't do this. You can't knock me, man. Come

on, don't leave me in here. Don't leave me in here. Don't leave me in here. I

said come on.

Don't leave me in here.

Well,

you bought them?

Wait.

We have a new member of our group. This is Jared.

Welcome to Heroin Hilton.

Jared. Thank you, Huey.

Jared, I need to tell the group what brought you here.

A large cop with bad breath.

Very clever. Perhaps you could be a little more specific.

No, man, there's nothing you can tell us we haven't already heard or seen.

Let's just say that I'm going through a slight identity crisis.

Okay.

Today...

I want to talk about responsibility, about how we refuse to take

for our addiction.

Instead, we blame everybody and everything else.

Well, I'll tell you this, Doc.

You know, if I fall back into my habit, I'm blaming Jill.

Shut up, Huey. Chick's driving me nuts, crying every five seconds, yammering on

about her smack binge last week. I'm clean. I didn't use. I don't know how it

happened. The truth, I don't know how it happened.

It's whack, baby.

Hey, I thought this was supposed to be a support group.

She tested positive for opiates, too.

Her denying she even used is a lie. You're a liar. I'm not a liar. Liar,

liar. You don't know that. Okay, new meat.

Maybe the smack just kind of floated down from the heavens and landed right

your bloodstream. I lost custody of my son last week.

Why would I jeopardize the most important thing in my life to you?

Because you're a junkie? I'm not a junkie anymore, Huey.

I don't want him seeing me in here like this.

I have an attitude of gratitude, Jill.

You're blessed.

Your son is going to get to see you again, clean and alive.

What Huey is saying is that you need to accept the fact that you have a problem.

I know I have a problem, Dr. Earl.

I lost my son.

Section A, page 22, had five obituaries. So I ran the names through the

database, and one of them, a guy named David Arnold, used to work here. When?

It doesn't say. And there's no other information on him, which is really

strange, because you know how this place is about background checks.

Which makes your presence here even more of a mystery.

This is ridiculous.

What if something happens to Jared while we're chasing ghosts?

Bruce, keep working the number codes and stay on this David Arnold lead.

Sure, no problem.

And Bruce, you report only to me.

That's a fine -looking little boy you have there.

I never actually knew my mother, but I always imagined how great our

relationship would be.

Look, Jared, right?

I appreciate you defending me in here, but please leave me alone, okay?

Sorry, I can't do that.

You see, the reason I'm in here is to help you.

As a favor to your father.

My father's been dead for over 20 years.

Jill, I know.

Jill, the little boy's here. He's waiting for you in the visitation

Let him see me like this. You're his mother.

Nothing can change the way he feels about you.

Hillary and I have a lot to do with you today, sport. We've got to pick up your

tux for the wedding. I've got to get the plane tickets. So you just say hi to

Mommy, and then let's get going, okay?

Todd, honey, the tuxedo shop is open late, and the travel agent can messenger

you the ticket.

Please, Daddy.

Chris, you spend as much time with your Mommy as you want, okay?

Okay. Okay.

I missed you so much.

I missed you too.

Why are you shaking, Mommy?

Mommy's been sick, Jamie.

Are you going to get better?

Yes. And guess what?

If Dr. Earl says it's okay, I can come home in a couple of days.

Does that mean I get to live with you?

Well, honey, no.

Don't you love me anymore?

Yes, of course I do.

I love you with all my heart.

Oh, God.

Jared!

Circle of trust, Jared. Whatever you're doing in here, you just broke the

circle. Take him back to his room.

Thank you very much.

What are you doing here?

I just want to talk to you. This is the only place that we can talk unmonitored.

Please trust me.

Leave me alone.

I don't think he would have wanted that.

Where'd you get this?

Your father gave it to me.

I was taken from my family when I was a boy. That photograph was your father's

way of giving me a family when I needed one.

I realize that all this sounds crazy.

But it's the truth.

You don't belong in here.

And I know you never would have done anything to jeopardize the custody of

son.

You know, I remember when this picture was taken.

I was a junior in high school.

And that was the year everything went crazy.

I met this great guy.

A dealer.

And your father got you clean?

No guilt trips.

Just unconditional love.

And he died.

But they cleaned through the whole thing.

I was clean for a long time.

That's when I met Todd.

We got married, had Chris.

It was such a good life.

And then you started using again.

I had an excuse for it. I screwed up.

By the time I realized what I had done, Todd had left. He took Chris.

Then Todd met Hillary.

I knew if I was ever going to get my boy back, I could never use drugs again.

So I got clean again.

I got my teaching credential.

Everything was fine. The court was going to give me custody.

Then the day before the final hearing...

I've lost any chance of getting my little boy back.

There is always a chance.

Not for me.

Once Hillary and Todd get married, she can legally adopt him, and then that's

the end.

Tell me about this day that you said you don't remember using.

I remember the morning. I was clean. I came here for my weekly drug test.

I woke up three days later strung out in the park.

I wouldn't have thrown it all away. Not my life.

Not my family.

Hello, Jill.

How are we feeling today?

Good. You should tell me you've been having a little trouble sleeping.

Would you like a clonidine patch?

Yes.

Jill, I just want to let you know, if all goes well, I think I can have you

of here by Friday. Really?

Really. We just want to make sure that you're ready.

There aren't going to be any setbacks, okay? I'm ready. I promise.

Good. You get some sleep, and I will check in on you later, okay?

The Delaware Cartographer's Office is emailing me a map coded 10 -17 -76.

A -22 should be the coordinates that lead us to Jared.

Good work.

Will you let us know the minute it can then? Oh, yeah.

Brutes, I want to review your G -4 report with you.

All right, I'll catch up with you, Sidney.

What do you got?

Okay. You know Winky, the old guy with the facial tics that works down in the

infirmary? We haven't had the pleasure.

Okay, anyway.

He remembers this David Arnold used to work there as an orderly like 20 years

ago. So I cross -referenced Arnold's name with the infirmary's DSA database,

I came up with two matches. The only problem is they're missing from Winky's

archives. Somebody's really gone to some trouble erasing this guy from the

history books around here.

You've been making unauthorized entries into the infirmary's database.

If it's David Arnold you want to know about...

I can tell you he was one of the kindest, gentlest men I ever had the

of knowing.

What's he doing these days?

Pushing out daisies.

Arnold is deader than your hair follicles.

Tell me then, Miss Parker, how does David Arnold get you any closer to

Jared?

We explore all avenues in pursuit of Jared, even the dead ones.

He wouldn't be bugging us about a dadly fit unless we had something to hide.

The answer lies in those missing DSAs, which are most likely in Raines' private

collection.

Great. And one, and two, and three, and four. Keep going.

Almost finished.

Breathe. Good. And arms. And one, and two, and three, and four.

Good job.

Hey,

nice ride, dude.

What are we waiting for? Let's get the hell out of here.

Even if I could start it, they don't let me ride it.

You know anything about motorcycle maintenance?

Well, I read a book on it once.

Nothing to do with motorcycles, however.

There's a plug when you hit the throttle.

Yeah.

The tabs from your float bowl are disconnected from the needle, see?

I'll be damned.

Hey, thanks.

Cool shirt.

What... Get it? Rabbit.

It's a rock and roll band.

We had a big hit in the 80s.

Bloody Love Bones?

I was kind of out of it in the 80s. And the 70s.

Most of the 90s, for that matter.

Yeah, who wasn't? But I was their head roadie.

We went everywhere.

Toured with the biggest.

Stones, Allman Brothers.

Then we released two lame albums.

Next thing you know, we are warming up high school gyms for air supply.

Were they having trouble with their ventilation system?

Exactly. Hey, listen, brother.

I really need to score.

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

Come on, you clammy skin, you beady little pupils.

I think you know exactly what I mean.

Come on.

I'll be out.

Garrett's your man.

Garrett?

Unless he got busted again.

Again? Earl nailed him a few weeks ago dealing smack to an outpatient.

How does an orderly in a drug rehabilitation kind of get away with

Hey, man, there's stuff going on around here none of us will ever know about.

Jill?

Jill? Jill? Jill?

She's ODing.

Jill.

I will take care of her. I will take care of her. Check her respiration. I

an airway and some O2, stat. Get in there.

Get in there.

Get in there.

Jill. Jill.

Jill, how could you do this to yourself?

Raines almost caught me.

I had to hide under his couch for over an hour.

Then his masseuse came in and rubbed them down with oil while they were

Shall We Gather at the River. The DSA.

You're not going to believe this.

Jill. Jared, I swear I don't know how this happened.

It doesn't matter.

What matters now is getting you through this. Come on, come on. Let's get you to

the bed. Come on.

I'm beginning to think maybe I'm doing this. I can't remember what's happening

to me anymore.

I can't go through this again.

I don't have the strength. You're going to have to find the strength for your

son. I've lost him. No, you haven't.

I owe you a father.

What?

Somebody help me!

Somebody help me!

Somebody help me!

So he had a bad flu.

This isn't the flu, Miss Parker.

This self -righteous son of a bitch got Jared hooked on narcotics.

Here.

You have to drink. You must stay hydrated.

One more. Come on.

Why would that place, why would the center give a child drugs?

Because to them I was never a child.

You call for me, Doctor?

I need you to clean up the room.

The boy's sick.

Yes, sir.

Hey, kid.

I'm one of the orderlies.

Help me.

Please. What's wrong with you?

Oh, my God. Who did this to you?

Please help me.

Just hang in there, buddy.

I'm going to help you through this, okay?

Everything's going to be fine.

That's David Arnold.

There's the connection to Jared.

Arnold helped him get through detox.

It's so hot, I feel like I'm burning up.

Hang tough.

It'll pass.

I hurt all over.

Hang tough.

It'll pass.

I don't think I can do this. Yes, you can.

Just stay focused on me.

Come on, come on.

Just a little bit to make the pain go away.

I can't do that, Jared.

I can't do this.

You gotta get me something.

Please, please get me something.

How about him?

Is he enough?

I need my family here to help me.

Where is your family?

I don't know.

I can't remember.

My daughter Jill and I be your family.

I don't know how I'm ever going to repay you for this.

Don't worry about it.

One day you will.

No, wait, Mr. Parker.

You have to see the next BFF.

Mr. Arnold.

Yes, sir.

You're to be commended.

I don't mean to overstep my position here, but what possible reason did you

to get this kid hooked on drugs?

That's not your concern.

Oh.

I'm making it my concern, sir.

You'll be amply rewarded for your efforts.

You know, you can keep your money.

I don't want anything to do with this place.

dated October 17th, the day before David Arnold accidentally drowned in his own

swimming pool.

Reigns had him killed to keep him quiet.

I can't help wondering, where was Sidney during all this?

He was Jared's protector.

How could he let this happen?

That's a good question.

I deserve to lose him.

Hillary will make a much better mother.

How this happened?

Well, it's about time we found out.

Thank you.

Garrett, you got a patient, Luke.

What the hell were you doing out of your room? Were you afraid I was going to

find your drug stash?

All right, you son of a bitch.

How could you do that?

How could you give drugs to a woman who was trying to turn her life around?

What the hell are you talking about?

I'm talking about Jill Arnott.

I'm talking about doctoring her clonidine patch with pure heroin. I

You want to deal with me?

That's what I call the police. Go to hell.

You're the drug supplier here.

Why'd you do it?

I swear, I swear, I don't even have access to the clonidine patches. Only

Earl could have laced them with heroin.

Heroin he got from you.

All right. All right.

All right. When Earl called me dealing to Huey, he threatened to have me

arrested unless I scored for him. All right? I had no idea he was going to use

it on a patient.

Why is Dr.

Earl keeping Jill Arnold on drugs?

I don't know. I don't know. I don't. I swear to God, I don't.

But I can get you into his office.

Hello, Hillary.

I'm calling for Dr. Earl.

It seems a situation has come up regarding Jill Arnold.

He needs you to come down here right away.

Hillary, right?

Dr. Earl said he was running just a little bit late.

Can I offer you a glass of water while you wait?

Somebody help me!

Sidney, how could you let this happen?

It was just a voice, Sid.

And I was dancing.

Santa was working with people who were trying to perfect a synthesized narcotic

that might enhance mental performance.

So you let them experiment on Jared?

That was Raines' decision.

I guess the idea of a great mind like Jared's becoming great Estelle was just

too exciting to walk away from. The drug, of course, turned out had pretty

serious side effects.

Rapid addiction and devastating withdrawal.

So Raines turns Jared into a junkie lab rat and you bury your head in the sand?

Sydney, why?

Turned Sidney into an addict.

Oh, my

God, where am I? I would imagine that Jill Arnold must have asked herself the

very same question.

I think we should have a little group therapy session.

Only this time, the two of you...

Gets me to patience.

What are you talking about?

Circle of trust, Doc.

You give Jill Arnold drugs against her will. I do the very same thing to the

of you. Only this time I use a hybrid narcotic that chemically tricks the

into thinking you've been addicted for years.

What you're experiencing now, physically and mentally, that's what's known as

cold turkey.

Gobble, gobble.

You're sick, you son of a bitch. Now that is not expressing an attitude of

gratitude, Doc.

But not to worry.

I brought along some clonidine patches to help take that pain away.

Please, give me a patch. First, we should talk about investigating our

self -inventory to decide which one of you actually deserves a patch. Give it

me. How are you? I'm somebody that can help end your torment.

Just tell me the truth.

Come on, I can't take this. Don't give it to her. Give it to me. Just talk to

me.

Give it to me.

Okay.

Okay. Please, give me a patch.

I guess you can look forward to the next eight hours with your head in a bucket.

Guys, just give me a patch, please.

One, one of them.

Give it to me.

Okay.

Okay. He did it.

What? He needed the money.

Stupid bitch. Oh, please, come on. You said nobody would find out. No, no.

You're the one who needed that stupid kid. You wanted the money.

Hey.

Give me one of the patches.

Let me guess, it went something like this.

Todd Moffat is a very rich man.

So rich, in fact, that if you two were to get divorced, you could stand to make

one hell of a payday.

Especially if you were to adopt his son.

And what better way to ensure custody than to turn his biological mother into

junkie? And who better to help you than your ex -college sweetheart?

How did you know that?

Let's just say that I took a little peek into the doc's college yearbook.

You two make such a cute little couple.

It seems so sad that college sweethearts such as yourself are going to have to

experience such horrific pain.

You see, I've had my experience with that little devil you're on.

And let me tell you... Somebody help me!

It's a bitch.

Only one clonidine patch left.

It would be a shame to have to white -knuckle it through such a terrible

Okay.

I did it.

I drugged Jill Arnold so she would lose custody of her son. Could I have that

patch, please? Please. No, he did it. Please give me the patch.

Like you say, Doc, recovery starts when an individual admits that he or she has

a problem.

Isn't that right?

Todd. That's right.

Let me tell you, the two of you have one hell of a problem.

We're going to see Mommy in just a few minutes. Okay. So Jill was telling the

whole truth after all. I feel like a real punk laying into her the way I did.

Hey, you live and you learn.

Yeah, but I've decided, you know, I'm going to finish up my time here. You

the right way.

I've just been kind of going through the motions.

I started thinking about my future.

Good for you. Thanks a lot, Jared.

Something for you.

Hey, what's this?

Skint rabbit.

Oh, wow. Bloody love bones.

But don't listen to it backwards.

You'll end up here for real.

Thanks for everything.

I hope I can make this up to Jill.

Now's your chance.

Mommy, are we going home now? We are going to go home in two seconds, okay?

You look good. I'm starting to feel good.

So what now?

One day at a time.

Jared, I don't know how I could ever repay you for everything you've done.

The debt's already been paid.

Sydney. Didn't think you'd still be working.

Cut you the call.

I was getting really worried.

Because you thought I might have slipped back into my childhood drug addiction.

Just tell me why.

Why did you let them do that to me?

Sharon. You're the only person that I trusted.

You were like a... You should have stopped them, Sydney.

Sharon, I couldn't.

Why not?

Because I was a test subject myself.

What are you talking about?

I asked Raines. Rather, I demanded that you be left out of the drug testing and

that they use me instead.

And Raines agreed.

Only when I came out of detox that I realized what had happened.

That he'd lied.

So you sacrificed yourself to protect me?

Why didn't you ever tell me that?

I never wanted you to feel obligated to stay here at the center if you had a

chance to get away.
