All language subtitles for Nowhere Man s01e22 Calaway

My name is Thomas Vail.

Or at least it was.

I'm a photographer.

I had it all. A wife, a friend,

a career.

And in one moment it was all taken away.

All because of a single photograph.

I have it.

They want it.

And they will do anything to get the
negative.

I'm keeping this diary as proof that
these events are real.

I know they are.

They... Have to be.

It's been over nine months since this
twisted audacity began.

With every day that passes, I get
farther away from my old life.

Lately, I'm starting to doubt my ability
to recall events accurately.

Whatever hidden agenda is or was is
becoming less clear every day.

Did I experience what I thought I did?

And if so, were the events themselves
real?

Or could they have been staged?

Maybe these doubts are a side effect of
my current condition.

I haven't slept in the last nine days.
Not an hour.

Not a minute.

Am I doing this to myself?

Or is it what happens to a person who's
been cut off for too long?

Can I get you anything else?

Come on, honey, I don't have all night.

Well, what's it going to be?

What's the matter with you?

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

I didn't like the idea of submitting to
another institution, but I didn't know

where else to turn.

I had to find out what was wrong with
me.

Why couldn't I sleep?

You can tell what it is.

JAMA, New England Journal of Neurology.

What are you looking for?

Look, you want to stop acting like I'm
not here? What are you doing?

Found it.

There was a controlled experiment done
about two years ago at a private clinic.

I don't know what they were looking for.

But what they ended up with was an
induced condition identical to yours.

What do you mean, insomnia?

More. In the worst cases of sleep
disorders, the patient manages a few

day. The side effects of this experiment
were uninterrupted insomnia. The

indications are identical, same
signatures on the lab work.

What do I do to fix it?

Unfortunately, there was nothing more
published after the initial results.

I guess the people at Callaway decided
to scrap it.

It's funny because... Callaway?

He's in the hospital in Illinois.

You've heard of it?

I'm not deluded. I have no paranoid
obsessions.

Calloway was the psychiatric hospital
where I'd been taken nine months ago

this bizarre journey started.

It's where I met Dr. Bellamy, my first
interrogator, the man responsible for my

initial debriefing and evaluation, the
man who tried to convince me from the

beginning that I was having some kind of
breakdown, the man who was machine

-gunned right before my eyes when he
failed to retrieve my negative for

Agenda.

What are you doing here?

This area is restricted to the Emperor
and his Praetorian Guard. I must ask you

to leave at once.

Dangerous times.

Right.

Someone, please, listen. Just listen.

My name is Michael Kramer, and I'm not
crazy.

It's a practical joke. It's gone too
far.

Someone put my family up to this.

Listen, government.

Why is everyone acting like I don't
exist?

You

okay?

Get back to your room.

Get back to your room. I'm trying to
help.

Somebody's not where he belongs.

What do you got?

I don't know.

Keep tracking him.

I'll get an ID.

Hit me, Gilmore.

open the door.

What did you bastards do to me?

Can I sleep?

I'm going to take him to 3A. Tell Dr.
Novick I want to see him right away.

Is this really necessary?

Orders. From Dr. Novick.

It's me, Tom.

Tom Vale.

Yes, I know.

So you do remember me?

No. We've never met.

What are you saying?

My name is Dr.

Novick, and I'm here to help you.

We were both in this place nine months
ago.

Why are you pretending to be somebody
else?

Sidney.

There's been a policy change.

Game over.

Give up the negatives or die.

Do you mind if I smoke?

Is that a yes or a no?

Why are you doing this, JC?

What's happening?

You haven't slept in two weeks.

It's beginning to take its toll.

You're doing this to yourself, Tom.

I just want to go back to a normal life.

And you will, Tom.

Now.

One of the great ironies of sleep
deprivation is that it doesn't shut down

part of the brain that produces
nightmares.

You're not getting a 10 negatives?

But you know we will.

Eventually we will.

Why can't you understand what we do here
is for your own good?

Benefits everyone.

I've seen your better world.

It's full of zombies.

You've seen it too, J .C.? Oh, here we
go again, huh?

Back to J .C.

Okay.

Maybe you're right.

Maybe J .C. doesn't exist.

Just humor me here for a second, Tuck.

What were you doing a year ago?

I was right here at Calloway.

Where'd you go to medical school?

College.

What was your childhood like?

Who were your parents, Doc?

Have it your way.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Give me that.

You're off limits.

Well, I was just taking a walk. Alan,
remove this gentleman to a secure area.

Come on, buddy. Let's go play some ping
pong.

Hey, buddy, you got a cigarette?

A cigarette?

You know, little white tubes with
tobacco in them?

Cigarette.

Great.

Let me guess, your ATM card doesn't
work?

Your key doesn't fit in your front door
and everyone you've ever known treats

you like a stranger?

How do you know that?

Don't give him anyone's name.

Not your family, not your friends, no
one. What are you talking about?

The people you care about are in danger.

Novick is not here to help you.

What are you saying? Novick is part of
this?

I'm just saying from here on in, for us,
nobody.

The people here will stop at nothing to
get what they want from you.

How do you know that?

want from me you know what we want jc
please please

stop you

still think

i'm delusional

I know it sounds impossible, but that's
you.

That's who you really are.

Joe Carter.

No.

Please, you shouldn't be here.

Neither should you.

I didn't make this up.

Why is it such a leap to think that you
were once on the other side?

I'm your only chance, J .C.

I'm your memory.

So let me help you.

I don't need your help.

Now, please.

I have work to do.

Just check out the file.

Hello?

Who is this?

Emily, who are you?

I'm a friend of your daddy's, Emily.

My daddy's in heaven with my grandma and
grandpa.

Do you remember your daddy?

I'm so sorry. Who is this?

Hello?

Hello, is anyone there?

Hello?

What's happening to me?

You got something to want.

I don't have anything.

Yeah, you do. You do. You just don't
know it yet.

What do you do, Michael?

I sell real estate.

But no one in my office recognizes me.

None of my friends recognize me.

Hey, listen to me. Listen to me, man.

Listen to me. The people here are going
to try and make you doubt yourself.

It's time, Doctor.

Time?

The treatment room's been prepared.

It's time to move things along.

Right, right. The treatment room, yes.

Is there a problem?

No, no.

I was just thinking about the case.

It is your opinion that he's ready?

Oh, yes.

Absolutely.

Okay.

Um... After you.

You wanted to sleep Tom?

Sweet dreams.

Felt good for a moment, didn't it, Tom?

Let me sleep.

Let me sleep.

Take him back to his room.

Sleep.

You know the rules when we get the
negatives.

This will all be over when you want it
to be, Tom.

Let's go bail. You know beauty sleep is
enough. Come on.

They don't pay me to answer questions.
Come on. Get his shoes.

How do you know what you know?

I was here, JC.

Were we friends?

Not really.

But I think you were trying to tell me
something. I just couldn't figure out

what it was.

Whatever it is, we'll never know.

I think I have a daughter.

I don't know her.

I don't remember her.

It's what they took from you, man. It's
your soul, JC.

How do I know that?

Because of a videotape?

A voice on the telephone?

It just doesn't make any sense. I'm
real.

I gotta be.

I mean, I know it's hard.

J .C., you got to open your mind, man,
just and look at the facts.

Because that's what's going to get you
through this.

Yesterday, I was a happy man.

A successful doctor.

Everything's turned around.

I know.

But it's the truth.

That's what you gotta face, man.

Why?

So I can end up like you.

On the run.

Without a life.

Unable to trust anyone.

There's one person I can trust.

Myself. Maybe.

But so what?

You don't seem to understand it, so let
me make it as simple as I possibly can.

Joe Carter's dead.

So is Thomas Vail.

Taking some extra interest in the Vale
case, I see.

What do you mean?

I see you've accessed the main computer
to pull down some extra files.

Oh, those.

Well, I felt I could do a better job if
I had a little more background on him.

I don't want to have to micromanage you,
Neil.

We give you everything you need.

Yes.

You're right.

I'm sorry.

All set for tomorrow's procedure?

All set.

Hey, hey. Where you been? I've been
waiting half the night. Gotta wait till

we're safe. The guards are running late.

Are you sure it's clear?

We're gonna find out.

Get you on the side.

Come on, let's go.

What's the matter?

What are they gonna do to us if we get
caught?

Look, we are caught.

If you're not up for it, you can stay.
I'm outta here.

Close the door.

I'll see you right there.

Okay.

It's a trap. It's a trap.

All right, turn around. Put your hands
behind your head.

Do it!

Bad move, Tom.

Why did I listen to you?

They're going to let me go. Now they're
never going to believe me.

J .C., please.

Sorry, Tom.

Where do you want him?

Central. I want him reclassified.

You want to go there now?

Now!

I'm not taking any chances.

Okay.

Get moving.

Come on, get in.

What are you doing?

Probably making a big mistake.

Come on, let's go.

How you doing, Bill?

It's okay. They're with me.

There, they just left the premises.

Someone want to tell me what the hell is
going on?

This has definitely been the weirdest 48
hours of my life. Well, I wish I could

tell you it was over.

Damn. What?

I think we're being followed.

We're almost out of gas.

Put in ten bucks, huh?

I gotta go take a leak.

Be right back.

What do you know about this guy Novick?

I don't trust anybody.

Get in the car.

What's wrong?

Now.

Just get in the car.

I have to get on to it, Snowman.

Why are you asking me?

Michael! Michael!

Man, let's go!

Damn, a homing device.

You son of a bitch!

You gave us up. I'm sorry. They told me
I'd end up like you. I just want this to

be over.

It's over. Let's go. Let's get out of
here.

You're going the state lines that way.

I'm not going that way.

I'm going home.

It's not a good idea, J .C.

That's the first place they're going to
look for you.

You got to see Emily, man.

J .C., you can't. I know.

I know what's ahead of me.

Go on.

I'll be all right.

What is Calloway? What do they do there?

Calloway is a place where certain
members of the scientific community

certain experiments.

So I was an experiment.

What'd they do to me, J .C.? They
rewired you, man.

What are you saying?

Just that.

They reworked your entire neural
architecture.

How? Well, hey, how? I escaped.

Did you?

Or is that just what you remember?

I did. I know I did.

I'll be right there.

Hey, look, I don't have all the answers.

Maybe you did escape, but that's not
even important now. These people, they

a plan.

The agenda, that's what they call it.

Hidden agenda.

Their work in mind control is being
applied to a small sample. The success

unfortunately, is staggeringly high.
They're almost ready to apply it to...

whom?

To whom?

To whomever they choose.

I gotta rethink everything.

There's no time.

What does that mean?

Tell me.

If I knew, I would.

What they did to me was different than
what they did to J .C.

His procedure was surgical.

They took his memory all at once.

What they did to me nine months ago was
electrochemical.

I'm on a clock.

All the things that have been happening
to me, the sleep deprivation, the

delusions, mean the clock is about to
strike 12.

The pills J .C. gave me were just a
reprieve from the inevitable.

Soon, all my memories will be gone.

Without ceasing to breathe, I will cease
to exist.
