I'm sorry, Mr. Morgan. There's no record. My attorney made the

It's about an inheritance.

Oh. Will you excuse me? Sure.

Mr.

Peterson will see you now. I apologize for the confusion.

No problem.

Yeah, it probably will be splitting.

Hi, I'll be with you in a sec.

That's right.

Peterson, call.

I'm sorry, he's in conference.

May I return your call?

Is everything okay, Mr. Morgan?

Pick up's not here yet. We can't wait.

This is the guy we've been looking for. LAPD. Thank God you're here.

This man, he just walked in, he killed my boss, and then he just walks out.

Can you describe him? He had a gray suit on, a bright tie with flowers on it,

average height, average weight. I don't know, just very average. That's our guy.

Is he armed?

I don't... Did you see which way he went?

No. I'm sorry.

It's okay.

Better get back inside.

We should split up.

Okay, but Sammo, if you see this guy, I will be careful.

Police, could you please?

Jake Abernathy, developer, killed last July in Beverly Hills.

Milo Shaw, plastic surgeon, found on his lawn six weeks ago.

And now, Forrest Peterson, financial manager.

Grady Morgan, an accountant, kills three people, damn near kicks Sammo's butt,

and then steps in front of a bus.

I mean, anybody else find this weird other than me?

It's weirder. Morgan had no record, not even a traffic ticket.

But his prints were found at every crime scene. And there were plenty of

witnesses at the Peterson killing, which means we just cleared three cases.

Maybe. Maybe.

Well, I'd like to know how this man was connected to his victims. I mean, he

doesn't fit any profile I know.

Boy, sounds flat out deranged to me.

Which matches with random targets.

If they are random.

Thanks. It'd be nice to find out a motive for these crimes.

Maybe we'll find something at Morgan's home.

And that's where you're going.

Grace, you take a look at the reports on these killings and check for

consistencies, inconsistencies, whatever. Got it.

Terrell, I want you to head back to Peterson's office.

Re -interview the witnesses.

Let's find a reason why Grady Morgan, model citizen, killed three people.

You don't look happy to see me.

I'm not.

I thought you swore you'd never speak to me again.

Well, I did.

But I need a cop.

That building over there is full of them. You go over there and take your

Arrest me.

You didn't hear me wrong. I want you to arrest me now.

You know, being a control freak isn't a crime, Nicole. No, no, no. Just listen

to me. Who changed?

And I've become dangerous. You always were.

Look, this has been fun, but I gotta go.

I hope you still like handcuffs.

Mrs. Morgan, we know your husband killed Mr.

Peterson. You're wrong.

Okay, you can ask anybody, and they will tell you that Grady couldn't kill a

weed. He almost killed me with martial arts.

Martial arts.

Grady, you're talking about someone else.

I wish they were true.

I'm sorry.

We've been together since college.

And all that time, he's been stable and reliable.

Until... Grady was having an affair.

Or at least I'm pretty sure he was, because there were the late nights at

office and, you know, the...

Unexplained trips and mysterious phone calls. Any calls today?

Yeah, this morning.

But, you know, Grady said that the phone never even rang.

I guess he forgot he'd already used that ploy.

Are you still checking into Grady Morgan?

Nope. Now I'm checking out a friend of Terrell's. Or an ex -friend.

Therapists, doctors, nothing else is worth.

And even if I got myself committed, I'm not sure the other patients would be

safe. Nicole, the problem... Things have happened. Things I can't really

remember. Maybe I don't want to remember.

Nicole.

I've been having dreams.

Dreams? Yes, I'm running down the street, and blood is dripping from my

From your claws.

At first, I thought it was just nightmares.

But a few months back, there was a full moon.

And when I woke up from my dream, there was blood under my fingernail.

I killed somebody.

The moon rose, and I changed, and I killed somebody.

You're a werewolf?

Now you're giving me the same look that the doctors did. With good reason. We

think you're nuts.

We don't.

Excuse me, but maybe we can indulge your Chinese superstitions when your ex is

around? It's not a superstition. It's science.

Neurology, to be precise.

You sued the city last year over a bike accident? Well, the road was poorly

maintained. I hit a pothole. And landed on your head.

She was in a coma for a week.

Neurological damage can cause hallucinations, and sometimes they can

real. It's not about my accident of being in a coma.

There's a full moon tonight, and I need help.

And I can see I'm not going to get it here.

Wait.

Help her.

She's very scared.

Very crazy.

You still care about her? No, I don't. Look, whatever her problem is, she needs

someone right now. Someone else.

Okay, I'll take her home. But that's it.

Okay, I'll walk her to the door. But then I am outie.

He still cares.

Of course he does.

So everything looks okay here.

Of course it does.

The only problem is me.

It's kind of like our relationship all over again.

You're trying to bait me, aren't you?

So I'll get mad and throw you out.

Now why would I do that?

Because of what you used to do when we had plans and you wanted to play

basketball with that gang of losers.

They weren't losers.

You knew?

Mm -hmm.

You weren't exactly subtle.

I guess not.

Well, if you knew what I was doing, why did you fall for it every time?

Not every time.

Not when it really mattered.

So do you think I picked an argument with you intentionally so you'd call off

the wedding?

No. I really believe that you forgot the rehearsal dinner. I explained that to

you. You know what? I'm not going to go through this with you. You can get me on

my cell phone any time.

Just break my windshield.

Wait. Just wait, Terrell.

It's a full moon tonight.

Nicole.

You're not a werewolf.

You gonna call?

Nicky!

That's your idea of interagency cooperation. Don't expect a friendly

time I see you on the freeway. And the finger I hold up won't mean you're

one.

What does the THP say? Same as everybody else. Low priority, unless I want to

press charges.

I'm amazed Nicole could do so much damage.

Sucker punch me. She got moves you don't even have, Samuel.

Nicole.

Where did you fight her?

She walked in downstairs.

She found us.

Somebody attacked you?

No.

This isn't mine.

So will I kill somebody?

The woman you attacked, her name is Janet Lane.

Is?

Not was?

She's in intensive care, but she's banged up. Pretty bad. She's doing all

Thank goodness.

What do you have against this girl, Nicole?

Nothing. I mean, I don't even know who she is.

Now, do you believe that I belong in jail?

Well... I'll be right back.

You two look very good together.

Sarah, she almost pulled somebody's lugs out. No time to play Cupid. I see how

much you care about each other.

Whatever. Any luck with Mr. Lane?

He picked Nicole out of our photo lineup.

Look, Nicole has never been violent or dangerous.

That was then. This is now.

So you're going to arrest her?

We don't have any other choice. She nearly killed Lane. She may very well do

again. But she has no history of violence. No connection to the victim.

Which actually reminds me of somebody we just met yesterday.

There may or may not be a tie to Grady Morgan. If there is, we will need

Nicole's help.

Gosh, you know, I remember setting you up on the couch, going to bed, and

it.

I broke this?

Over my head.

Oh, gosh, it's the only present you ever gave me that I actually liked.

Some things that are broken can't be put back together.

I was on the couch.

As to what happened in there, I have no personal knowledge.

Well, you know, I put on my pajamas and got into the covers, and the next thing

I remember, I was standing in front of the police station.

How about the phone call?

What phone call? The phone call that woke me up in the middle of the night

before you tried to reconfigure my face.

No one called.

What? What is it?

Brady Morgan's wife heard him get a call yesterday. A call he said he never got.

Which means what, exactly?

Nothing.

Unless we find out who made the call.

The call to Nicole came from that pay phone.

I hate that damn phone. And dealers tied up. People bug you for change.

Anyone bug you last night? We're looking for somebody who might have a phone

call. I sell sunglasses, man. It's in daytime, sunshine, you know.

Who might have been here last night?

Yeah, I should.

Jerry, talk to these guys.

You talk to them, okay?

One of us should...

Still close to Nicole.

Shy? Chinese.

And very, very proper.

Where he's from, he's not used to women dressing so... informally.

Really? I saw Last Emperor, and he seemed pretty informal to me.

Anything?

If there is too well with fighter, he cares very much about you.

And he's still single.

You look like bright girls. I know you remember it.

Did you find out anything?

It seems most people are here only in the day.

Oh, that guy was here last night.

And according to him, so was the president.

Maybe we have the president on tape.

Okay, fine, fine.

Thank you.

No, this isn't getting us anywhere. You don't know that yet.

So what's the plan? I don't have a plan.

Oh, of course not.

You don't always have to have a plan to get somewhere. Well, you don't, but the

rest of the world does. When did you start speaking for the rest of the

McCoy?

Are you sure your partner never met Grady Morgan?

The man who killed him?

Been through every file, all of his calendars, his computer.

And Grady Morgan's not in there? He just walked in off the street.

I'm sorry.

Is there any reason why someone might have wanted to do your partner harm?

No.

I mean, for it could be difficult at times, but who isn't?

My God, nobody would want to kill him. Are there any financial problems,

lawsuits?

Nothing I wasn't also liable for.

So there were problems.

Which were being dealt with.

There were some unauthorized trades.

It was a stupid clerical error, and we expect it to settle soon.

What about his personal life? Any problems there?

I was his personal life.

What little he had, and... No, we weren't having any problems.

Well, we'd like to take a look at some of these files.

And your financial records. That would involve handing over a lot of

confidential information, both ours and our clients'. We are the masters of

discretion.

You can look at whatever you want, but I can save you some time.

I was for a sole beneficiary.

I get the brokerage.

I have insurance policy.

I get it all.

Only right now I feel like all I've got is nothing.

Come on, Mr. Turlington. They both paid you a lot of money. You must recognize

them. Yes, I know her. That's Roxanne Cole.

Oh, and this is William Lane.

Yeah, they're both clients of ours.

Anything special about them?

Well, they're like most folks that come here. They're normal, decent people in

need. I think I can say that without violating the doctor -patient privilege.

Especially since you're not a real doctor.

Someone murdered Roxanne's partner, and someone else tried to kill William

Lane's wife.

The only thing they have in common is you.

You know, something that we teach here is the first rule of coincidence.

Never rely on the vagaries of... Really? Our favorite motto is, leave no stone

unturned. You never know what's going to crawl out.

Yeah, that's a good one. Our version of that is, persistence is a virtue.

Now, I don't recall Roxanne or William ever hinting at anything criminal in or

out of their sessions.

Exactly what sort of sessions do you have here?

Motivation.

We help our clients achieve their maximum personal potential.

Here you go, Doctor. Thank you.

We provide the guidance to achieve their goals. We help them reorganize their

lives.

You ever try to reorganize the lives of Nicole Banyan or Grady Morgan?

Let's see.

Nicole Banyan or Grady Morgan.

Now, I'm sorry, they're not in our database.

But you know what? Just so your visit isn't a complete waste, how about 10 %

your first seminar?

I think you two would have a good time.

Hope to see you there, ladies. Oh,

thank you.

I've got that tape from the security camera at the beach, Detective.

The call we want was made at 3 .02.

Slow down and enhance.

Where'd you get this?

From the beach.

Surveillance camera.

You know him?

Don Turlington. Grace and I were at his office earlier today.

He called Nicole last night.

Can you tell what he's saying?

Fortunately, he made it easy. Face toward camera, speaking clearly.

The moon in June is very, very blue.

I don't understand.

Maybe it's my English.

It's not your English, Samuel.

But I'm sure Turlington will explain it when we show up with a warrant.

I didn't attack you. I wasn't even at the beach today. Why do you keep saying

that?

You don't remember trying to kill Detective Law? No.

No, the last thing I remember is Danzig.

The University of Danzig, 10 or 12 years ago, right?

Mrs. Morgan?

Banion.

I wore glasses back then. I had short hair.

We took two classes together.

European history.

And a poli -sci?

Yeah. What's his name?

Grady Morgan.

This wedding couldn't get any weirder.

It does.

Why do I think I'm never going to get ahead of this one? Because you are

Coffee. And Nicole probably does, too.

Yeah. I am dying for a cup of coffee. Let's go find them.

Yeah. Yeah.

The moon in June is very blue.

The moon in June? Okay.

Please pour your soda onto the table.

Yo, what was that about?

A trigger phrase.

Hypnosis? I mean, some kind of mind control?

Whatever it is, it's a waffle.

Oh, my turn.

Let me try.

Kay, Miss Morgan, did someone give you orders?

Did someone tell you what you were supposed to do at the beach?

Yes. And what was that? What were you supposed to do?

She doesn't know what she's doing.

You're not a werewolf.

I'm not?

Well, what happened to me then?

I'll be damned if I know.

I don't believe this.

They're sleepers. Those people in there are actually sleepers.

Operative, spook, secret agents.

So you're saying Nicole's a spy? An unwitting spy.

I mean, I've heard rumors. I've read conjectures on the Internet.

Saw the Manchurian candidate four times.

It's something of an urban legend, like Bigfoot or alien abductions. Oh, wait,

wait. You lost me at Bigfoot.

Sorry. I'm a little fired up.

Maya, hypnosis, drugs, or God knows what else. Those people have been superbly

conditioned to commit murder.

Murder, arson, sabotage, whatever their controller wants.

You give them the right code phrase, they'll blindly follow any order.

There's one hell of a paper in this.

Maybe a book.

Don't start counting your Nobel Prizes before you find a cure, Doc.

They don't have headquarters. I can't just hand out aspirin.

Before I treat these people, I'll need to do some serious research.

The problem is, I don't even know who did the original conditioning.

According to Nicole, they were all studying in Danzig 12 years ago. That

the Sazi were still active then. The East German secret police?

They all dead and gone. They are, but they're all out there. A lot of people

have been rummaging through their files since the wall fell and selling what

they find to the highest bidder. So maybe somebody bought a list of the

and their control codes and started a business.

You know, like, need a killer?

Call Don Turlington.

And for a fee, he'll find you a killer that has no connection to the victim. Or

the person who wants the murder.

And as a bonus, the killer's only memory is that of being a werewolf.

I doubt that Nicole was programmed to think she was a werewolf.

That's probably just her interpretation of her memory leaks.

Oh, the bike accident.

A severe hematoma could have caused synapse degradation and interfered with

ability to consolidate memory.

Or there may simply have been a flaw in Nicole's original programming.

So how long will it take to deprogram her?

Weeks, months, years.

Who knows?

Where's Turlington?

Looks like they're all gone.

They must have cleared out right after we left.

It's a shame we don't have an extradition treaty with Brazil. If I

Turlington, I'd head for Rio.

And violate your own credo?

You're thinking he's got a plan B.

I'm thinking I'd hate to say he doesn't and be wrong.

Well, maybe we should get one, too.

Anybody here?

You startled me. I thought everybody left for lunch.

They're trying to kill me.

Get the novel and hurry.

Hey, hey, it's okay.

We're cops, remember?

What is it? What's wrong?

In there, your men.

They're after me.

Come with us.

Where? We've searched all around.

Nobody's here.

They were here. It was a mailman and a bike messenger.

And they were trying to kill you.

Why? I don't know. There's no reason.

Like yesterday, when your partner was killed by a total stranger, and now

strangers are after you?

I don't know. She's pretty upset.

Maybe it's some kind of stress reaction.

She imagined it all. They were here. They were going to kill me. Maybe you

some counseling.

Wait, aren't you going to protect me? From what?

You say no one has any reason to kill you.

What if there were a reason? Would you protect me?

That depends.

Forrest was bankrupting us.

I paid Don Turlington to arrange his death, and now Turlington's trying to

me.

Is that enough?

In this state, it is.

I'll take her down.

Good work, guys.

See you back at the station.

Look, we're all out of tea, so...

I put a bunch of cream and sugar in here, and maybe you won't hate the

taste so much.

Maybe I don't hate coffee. I mean, maybe I really love this swill, or maybe

someone just hypnotized me and ordered me to hate it.

Let me get you something you like. Don't drink it. How do I even know what I

like? I mean, how do I know that anything I do is really me and not some

crazy scientist?

Well, Nicole, I know.

Look, I got to go look at them files or something.

And I need to drink this coffee. Yeah, you do that. You drink and I'm going to

look at them files.

Or something.

Yeah, or something.

You see?

Get to the point.

You still have feelings for her. Yeah.

Anger, frustration, and irritation.

Why?

She never wanted me to play ball on Saturdays.

So play on Sunday.

That's not the point.

I don't understand.

When I met Nicole, she said I was perfect.

But then she always wanted to turn me into somebody else.

Couldn't hurt.

Stop, Samuel. I tried, but I didn't want to change.

And the more she pushed me in one direction, the more I pulled in another

direction. You played? Yeah, I went to the playground and played with the

biggest bunch of losers you've ever seen. Drove her crazy, though. That was

point?

Well, the point is, the more she tried to change me, the more I resisted. Then

she became controlling, and she drove me away.

You were both unhappy.

We made each other unhappy.

And we both deserve better than that.

They've breached the firewall and introduced a data one that's chewing

our file.

You've got to give one thing to Turlington.

Thorough. And smart.

You risk to destroy evidence of his murder for higher business.

What's our most important evidence?

The sleepers.

I'm going to call SWAT, have them meet us at the hospital.

If Turlington acts... SWAT will go in shooting.

Nicole and the others may die.

They never meant to hurt anyone. Never had a choice.

Okay, then we go in on our own with non -lethal weapons, stun guns and pepper

spray. And we take the laborers down as gently as we can.

While they try to kill us.

Any problem tonight?

Hello? Where's Dr. Wag?

It's Kay Morgan.

I count the opposition as Turlington, Nicole, and the other two sleepers.

four against four, not bad odds. If your math is right.

Turlington could have caught in most sleepers. We don't know how many he had.

I'm so not looking forward to this.

The digital timer.

A few gallons of astrolite.

Throw in some C4 for good luck.

And the only uncertainty is how deep the crater will be.

What's your guess?

In 15 minutes, no one will ever know you guys existed.

Ms. Benjamin, do me a favor, please.

Stay here.

Kill anybody who enters this room.

Thank you.

A man came.

It must have been Turlington. He used a code phrase. And suddenly, the sleepers

wouldn't respond except to him.

Three block, coming your way. Get out of here.

Now.

Snap. Eight minutes and 20 seconds.

More than enough time to say goodbye.

Nicole!

Look,

I know this has to be hard for you, Nicole,

being the little control freak that you are, having to obey everything that

Charlie just said. But it's over now, baby. And what I need you to do is...

kicking me, Nicole! Let me turn it... Nicole, not even sleepers want to be

up.

Damn it, Nicole!

It's Terrell! The guy whose life you ruined!

Twice!

I get it.

Nothing's changed.

You're the control lady. And your idea of a relationship is still the same.

Nicole wants a man that Nicole can control.

It's like that opera thing.

When I got a flat tire and missed Madam Butterfly. That was a lie, Nicole.

I've seen the fat lady's thing twice. There's this thing one more time, I lose

my damn mind.

You want to know what I was really doing? I was playing basketball with my

friends. On the blacktop, getting jiggy with it, baby.

afternoon I've ever had.

I knew it.

You lying bastard.

I should have.

Joey!

I'm taking the bait.

Just like the old days.

I can't. They won't stop until their mission's completed.

There has to be another choice. No, there isn't.

Oh, relax, Don.

Think of an appropriate motto. How about all's well that ends well? You don't

understand. We've got to get out of here now. There's a bomb.

It's in rooms well.

Yeah, it's turned off.

Everybody's safe.

Could you give us a private moment, please, bro?

And how about the time?

The

sleeper

list, all his customers, every time he's ever jaywalked in his life, he gave it

all. Oh, and I take it one of those customers was Janet Lane's husband.

Yeah, poor guy was pretty upset when you went after his wife.

The wife I almost killed.

Well, don't forget, that wasn't your idea. That's why you're not facing

charges. Yeah.

So how's it all working out, the whole sleeper thing?

Well, Dr. Wagner says I should make a full recovery.

But it'll take time.

He's sending me to this clinic in Berlin.

I never realized what I was doing.

Of course not. That's the whole point of the program.

Not that.

What I was doing to you.

I never realized what it feels like to have someone turn you into something

you don't want to be.

Almost as bad as turning yourself into something you don't want to be. And I

didn't have the cool excuse of brainwashing.

Well, when I finally do get over this sleeper thing, we'll be there for you.

All right.

So, the deprogramming takes just six weeks and...

Let's plan on getting together that Thursday.

Or we could just wink.

Don't even say it.

You are perfect for each other. You can have a good one.

What's up with the kids in the police station, man?

Remember that time you was mad because they changed lines on the Jefferson?

You was all bugging out.

Nicole said they all were

studying in Danzig 12 years ago.

I'm sorry, I'm looking around the camera.

No, no, no, no, no. It's like you're retarded. I'm like, you're in the scene.

Excuse me, sir.

What's up with the kids in the police station, man?

Come on, let's go to Harlem.

Tonight at 9 .55, Red Troop will be face -to -face with their new captain in

Ultra 4.

But coming up next on ITV4, it's police camera action.
