All language subtitles for Shannen Doherty Almost Dead (Thriller) Full Length Movie

Thank you

No

Is Jim in? I need to talk to him. He's
with a patient right now.

Well, buzz him. I need to talk to him
right now.

These feelings that you've had that
everyone was out to get you, how far

you remember having them?

Excuse me.

Yes? Dr.

Schneider, Catherine's here to see you.
No, not now.

Tell her to come back at four.

He says he can't see you right now.
He'll come back at four.

I'm sorry.

Now, tell me about these feelings.

Uh, excuse me. I'm sorry to interrupt,
but, Jim, it's an emergency. I need to

talk to you.

I'll be right back.

What do you think you're doing? I'm
right in the middle of an appointment.

Jim, I'm sorry. I needed to talk to you.

I'll go see if that coffee's still
brewing.

This had better be good.

I just saw Mother.

What?

Look, I was having lunch, and she was
looking at me like she was angry. I

to follow her, but... It's all right
now, Catherine.

Now I want you to breathe, slowly and
deeply.

Feeling yourself calming with every
breath.

Letting your whole body relax.

There now.

That's better, isn't it?

Now, Catherine, I know you think you saw
your mother.

Jim, she was right there.

She was this close to me.

It's a very simple explanation for this,
and you know what that explanation is.

Kubler -Ross.

Five stages of grief. First stage is
denial.

And what are you denying?

You know what I'm denying.

Then say it.

That mother is... For the past four
years, I've been refusing to admit

that she's... Dead.

Don't you think it's time to put this
behind you?

You don't want to believe that she's
dead. Your mind won't let you believe.

So your brain wants to help out and it
creates a lifelike image of your mother

as you would have wanted her to be.

It wasn't an image.

It didn't look like an image.

Of course it didn't. But it was
Catherine.

You know that, don't you?

Are you guys alright?

Come here, please.

David, hi. Catherine Roshek here.

Oh, no, I just need to ask you some
questions. The usual ones.

Say hi to your brother for me.

All right, bye.

Recent studies have shown a high degree
of concordance.

Hello?

Jim, hi.

Okay.

I'll see you then.

Recent studies have shown a high degree
of concordance in identical twins in the

cases of mental deficiency, manic
depressive psychosis, criminality.

You are not there.

A lot of primitive cultures practice
ancestor worship.

Iris, worshipping your ancestors is one
thing, but having them come back from

the dead, that's quite another.

Hey, I wouldn't mind having my
grandfather come back. He gave me my

and he used to let me look at his girly
magazine.

Hey, come on, you guys, that's not
funny.

Hi.

Uh, Jim, I need to talk to you.

Catherine, what happened?

Your mother?

You saw your mother?

But Catherine, your mother's dead. How
could you?

What does she look like?

Catherine?

Catherine, where do you think you're
going?

I don't know.

Look, maybe I'll go to the cemetery
where she's buried. Well, you're not

reasonable.

Jim, I want to see if her body is still
there. You don't think that's being

reasonable? Look, you're upset, so why
don't you sit down? We'll have a nice

dinner, and then tomorrow... Oh, you'll
take me down, run some tests on me, find

out what's wrong with me?

There is nothing wrong with me, Jim. I
saw her. I saw Mother. Catherine, you're

acting crazy.

Maybe I am going crazy. What do you
think, Dr.

Schneider? Catherine?

Hello, is anyone here?

Can I help you?

Well, it sounds like the coffin just
collapsed. I mean, that'll happen in

weather like this.

I want it opened.

I want to pee for myself.

So what do you think you're going to
see?

Grave collapsed.

That's no crime.

No one was injured.

No complaints filed.

Then I'll file a complaint.

Okay.

Okay.

Got the perfect man to take down your
complaint.

Dominic!

Say hello to the young lady.

You're a cop?

Dominic de la Serra. It's Detective de
la Serra. He doesn't mind going up to

cemetery at night.

Spent a lot of time up there, don't you,
Doc?

Why were you looking at me like that?

You reminded me of someone.

Sounded to me like your boss had a
problem with you.

No problem.

We just don't get along too good, me and
him.

Must be hard in a small town like this.

So you're really a professor, huh?

You look kind of young.

Assistant professor.

Let me guess.

Some kind of psychology.

Very good, Detective.

Abnormal psychology.

You don't look like you work around
crazy people.

I don't.

I do research and lectures.

Well, let me tell you something,
Professor.

There's probably a very simple
explanation for all of this.

I want the grave opened tonight.

Nothing here, Dom.

Grave robbers.

Probably after a jewelry.

There was no jewelry on Mother when she
was buried.

Well, maybe they thought otherwise.

Funny smell down here, Dom.

Well, it just needs airing out.

Smells like something's burning down
there.

You're imagining things.

All right, guys.

Let's call it a night, huh?

tell me where's her body there's a lot
of crazies out there so you think some

crazy dug up mother's grave took out her
body just because they felt like it hey

look you're an educated woman you're not
going to stand here and tell me that

you really believe that your mother dug
her way out of a grave that she was

lying in for four years no of course not
dominic but i saw her

look i'll tell you what

How about you let me take you for a
drink?

I could use one myself.

It's two in the morning. Where... We'll
go to Eddie's. He's a friend of mine.

He'll open up for us.

Anything, Don?

Eddie.

Catherine Rorschach.

Eddie Herbeck.

Hi.

Hi. Eddie.

You saw your mother in a restaurant.

And? I saw her again.

This afternoon, I was going over some
lecture notes on schizophrenia and

monozygotic twins.

Mono -what?

Monozygotic.

Identical twins. I've been involved in
an ongoing study for a number of years

now.

You know, it's funny.

They're just research subjects, but...

Some of them are better friends than my
real friends.

Like the D twins.

The D twins?

They're part of my long -term control
group.

We've never actually met, but I talk to
them four times a year.

So they got a name or what?

We don't use real names.

To protect their privacy.

We wind up talking about all sorts of
things.

It's a research technique.

If I want them to open up to me, then I
have to open up to them first.

So you're doing these lecture notes.

Your mother shows up again.

Anything unusual about the way she
looked, her clothing?

She was wearing a blue gown.

Blue chiffon.

The one that she was buried in.

I, uh... I think I'm a little dizzy.

Hey there, Professor.

You better get up now.

It's about 1 o 'clock in the afternoon.

I bet you slept good, though, huh?

It's the bed.

That mattress is a beauty sleep.

Top of the line, $700.

But my wife says it's worth it.

She always wants the best mattress, the
best sheets.

She says there's nothing more important
in this world than a good night's sleep.

She's in the Mayo Clinic right now.

She just goes up there once a year for a
checkup.

Where's Dominic?

Well, he might be up at the cemetery.

He says it's a quiet place to think.

A lot of people think he's crazy, the
way he goes up there all the time.

But you're a psychiatrist.

You think he's crazy?

He seems fairly normal to me.

Well, you must be hungry.

I wanna make you breakfast.

Hi.

There's your coffee.

Eddie, tell me, why does he go to the
cemetery?

It's his wife, Kara.

She died about eight months ago.

There's a tumor on her spine.

For the last two months, he went up to
her hospital room and he watched her

Now he goes up to her grave.

And he stopped talking to people.

Except me.

I mean, I'm almost like his best friend,
but he's got to snap out of it.

Unresolved grief.

He's unable to transfer his emotional
needs to another person.

Until he does.

No, but he's a good cop.

I mean, he had an attitude, but who
cared?

But ever since Carver, it's like he's
looking for an excuse to get fired.

And with that asshole boss he's got...
Excuse me.

What?

Okay, tell her.

Something happened to your car.

You had no business leaving this car
here.

I'm gonna have to repay this whole
driveway. Do you have any idea what

gonna cost?

Where is Dominic?

Dominic? I wouldn't be looking for
Dominic to help you.

You got a problem?

Call your insurance company.

And while you're at it, why don't you
mention my driveway?

So the car just exploded, is that right?

That doesn't make any sense.

The car wasn't running. It can't just
explode.

Don't push your luck, lady. Opening that
grave was a violation of city

ordinances and county health laws, and I
could arrest you right now if I wanted.

I can't believe this.

I had every right to do what I did, and
now you're threatening me? I am doing

you a favor. I am letting you off easy.
That's what I'm doing.

Miller? Take Miss Rorschach here down to
the station. Put her on the next bus to

Los Angeles.

You can't do that.

Watch me.

I'm sorry about what happened. Call me.

Jim again.

Catherine, I was really insensitive. I'd
like a chance to make it up to you.

Will you please call me?

Hi, Jim, it's me.

I just got home. It's kind of a long
story, so call me and I'll tell you

it.

believes me. They think I set the fire
myself.

Listen to me.

You're in danger. I want you out of that
apartment now. You understand?

Everything's gonna be alright.

Show me.

You saw that same message before, didn't
you?

In another bathroom, just like this.

Well, your mother committed suicide.

No. Why didn't you tell me she committed
suicide? Just stop it. Why didn't you

tell me? Because I never believed it.

Mother wouldn't kill herself.

She never exhibited any self
-destructive tendencies.

She's dead, Catherine.

You just can't accept that, can you?

I don't want to talk about it.

The fire stayed right on the surface.

Must have been tremendously intense, but
fast.

That's what the arson squad said.

Were they able to determine a cause?

I told them Mother did it.

Get some clothes on.

Let's get out of here.

Excuse me?

I want to show you something.

What?

Something.

Then you act politely.

And then you can tell me what it is you
want to show me, and then I'll tell you

whether I'm willing to go or not.

Catherine?

Jim?

Hi.

Are you all right?

What the hell happened here?

Professor Rosak believes that this fire
was set by her mother.

It's insane, Catherine.

Well, somebody had to have started it
unless you believe in spontaneous

combustion. Who are you?

Dominique de la Serra.

He's with the Santa Paula Police
Department.

This is Dr. James Schneider.

This must have been a real shock for
you.

You need to get away from this place.

Catherine, you need a rest.

You think I'm crazy.

You think I set this fire myself.

Let's just take me someplace quiet,
secluded.

Put me under observation, get me all
medicated until I become reasonable

Good idea, Jim.

Well, I gotta say, Professor, you are
pretty crazy, all right.

But she didn't start this fire.

I'm taking you away from here. Come on,
let's go.

I don't think so, Jim.

You're gonna show me something,
Detective?

So, tell me, Professor, kidding aside,
how are you?

Really?

I know how the mind works.

In cases of extreme bereavement,
patients report seeing all kinds of

But what they see isn't real.

In my case, it's Mother.

And her image seems so real that it
feels like I could reach out and touch

There is one thing I was hoping you'd
explain to me, though.

What's that?

How in the hell did an image from my
subconscious walk into my apartment and

start a fire?

It happens at night.

And in the morning, another body's gone.

If you ever see anybody, you'll hear
anything.

Oh, there's 40 ,000 graves here.

The cemetery is two square miles.

There's no way you can watch every
grave.

And all the coffins were empty.

That's right.

But you know, there's one thing I don't
get.

The relatives that showed up.

One time it was the widow, and another
time it was the son.

And they came here before the cemetery
notified them.

It was like they already knew the grave
was empty.

They were scared.

They were shaken.

Like they'd seen a ghost or something.

Those two people you saw, did you know
they both committed suicide?

Oh, God rest their souls.

You don't think that I can handle this?

You don't have to worry about me. I am a
psychiatrist, remember?

Psychiatrists are just as crazy as the
next person.

Oh, and now you're an expert on
psychiatrists.

Well... I know they're a waste of time.

Well, maybe if you went to one, you
wouldn't have the problems that you do.

Maybe.

I doubt it.

Are you going to tell me what we're
doing back here?

Yeah.

I'm going to tell you.

Hey, Dom.

Hi. Hey, Catherine.

Hey, I like that suit.

Listen, I fixed up your room. I got
brand new sheets on the bed. Thanks,

Listen, you want a nightcap? Oh, I don't
think so. Not tonight.

Let me tell you something about your

supernatural manifestations.

They followed you here all the way from
Los Angeles.

Between those buildings.

I don't see anything.

Keep watching.

There.

Stay in the room.

Keep the doors locked.

You don't open up for anybody except for
Eddie or myself.

You understand?

Who is it? It's me, Eddie.

You need to eat.

Dominic said you hadn't had anything all
day.

Don't you worry about Dominic. He knows
what he's doing.

You come on over here and sit down.

Thanks, Eddie. It looks good.

Well, with my wife gone, I got nobody to
cook for.

Well, she's very lucky to have a husband
like you. Well, I'm the lucky one.

I mean, Phyllis, she's so beautiful.

I mean, she's got so much style.

People are jealous of me.

They can't figure out how I can attract
a woman like that.

You're hurt.

It was mother.

I don't know that.

But I found this.

Look familiar?

We buried her with this.

Couldn't be your mother.

She's dead.

Dominic, she's out there. You saw her.
There was someone out there.

I didn't get a clear look.

It could have been anyone.

It's her rosary. It has to be her. No,
it doesn't. That's impossible.

It's been a long day.

You should get some rest.

You really think I'm going to be able to
sleep?

I'm going to leave you with something.

No. Catherine, it's for your own
protection.

Take it.

All you have to do is pull the trigger
like this.

You don't even have to aim.

You just wait until somebody gets as
close as I am to you, and bam, you're in

business.

I'm going to leave this over there.

A gun's not going to work. Not against
Mother.

You're wrong. This gun will stop
anything, alive or dead.

Maybe I should just check myself in a
hospital like Eddie's wife did.

Eddie's not married. Never has been.

He said her name is Phyllis.

And that she's a beautiful woman.

There was a Phyllis around here. She
used to work in the bar.

Eddie had a crush on her, but she ran
away with some truck driver.

He's a lonely guy. He invents these
stories to make himself feel better.

Don't worry about it.

He's harmless.

You keep the door locked.

I'll be back in a moment.

Breakfast is served, Professor.

How did you get in here? I had the chain
on the door.

No, no, no. There wasn't any chain on
the door.

Look, I made you eggs, Benedict.

The door was locked.

I have extra keys for all the rooms,
Catherine.

I don't mean any harm.

I just wanted to look at you without
disturbing you.

You are very beautiful, Professor.

Especially when you're sleeping.

I could look at you for hours.

I think you've got to leave, Eddie.

You know, it bothers me to see you with
that look on your face.

It reminds me of Phyllis.

Phyllis used to get scared, too.

I thought she was so different.

But she turned out to be just like all
the rest.

And then she made a fool of me with that
truck driver. I mean, right here in

this bed.

That's when I knew I had to get rid of
her.

Everybody believes that she took off
with them out of town.

She never left the building.

She's still here.

You eat your breakfast now before it
gets cold.

What is it?

I put the gun underneath my pillow last
night.

When I woke up, it was gone.

Eddie must have taken it. He was in here
while I was sleeping.

Eddie wouldn't do that.

Eddie is a pathological liar who lives
in a fantasy world.

Stealing would come perfectly natural to
him.

Did you look around? Maybe you put it
somewhere else.

I put it under the pillow.

You sure about that?

That's not all. That woman, Phyllis, she
didn't run off.

Eddie killed her, Dominic. He is crazy.

What makes you think Eddie killed
anybody?

He told me he killed her.

What did he say?

You don't believe me.

He's threatening me. Catherine, what did
he say?

He said she never left the building.

I'll be right back.

What was it, Eddie? What did you say to
her?

About the woman who used to work here,
huh?

Come on, Eddie, what was it? It was just
something I made up.

I told her I killed her.

I was just kidding.

I didn't mean to scare her, Dom.

Bullshit! I swear to God.

Where's the gun, Eddie?

What gun?

I don't know anything about any gun.

It better be here when I get back.

Right where she left it.

Come in.

I owe you an apology.

Eddie's got more problems than I
thought.

I want to go back to L .A.

I can't let you do that.

I'm not asking for your permission.

Catherine, I'm asking you to stay.

If you try and leave, I'll stop you.

Something's happened, and you're not
telling me.

I got a call from that caretaker of that
cemetery in L .A.

Last night, they found the widow of the
man whose body was missing.

They found her in the cemetery.

She'd hanged herself.

Police say it was a suicide, just like
the other suicides.

I don't buy it. Why not?

Her husband's body is missing, and the
shock of seeing him come back to life

is... You're saying that those graves
are empty because people are coming back

from the dead? I don't know about other
people. I know about Mother. God damn

it! The dead don't come back.

No matter how much you want them to.

You want to see the reality of death?

I'll show you the reality.

I'll show you why your mother will never
come back.

I like to consider myself a doctor to
the dead.

When a regular medical doctor finishes
his work, that's where mine begins.

The only difference, I suppose, is that
my patient is deceased.

Eye caps.

We cement them under the eyelids. This
keeps the lids closed and also gives the

eyelids that nice natural shape.

Surgical wire.

I could use plain old copper wire and
nobody would know the difference.

Except me, and I like to use quality
materials.

This little piece of wire is what gives
the deceased that peaceful look.

We pierce the jawbone, insert the wire,
twist it until the jaws come together

and the lips meet. The excess wire is
then folded between the teeth.

And now we drain the body of blood.

I shall begin by making an incision at
the groin.

Then I will insert the injection needle
into the artery. This will push the

embalming fluid to the heart.

And then I will insert the drainage
instrument into the vein.

And now we can start pumping.

The blood is forced out of the body and
down through these channels here,

through this tube and down the brain.

The embalming fluid is then pumped into
the body. It can be tinted any shade,

just like mixing paint.

It's fascinating watching the color come
back into the deceased, almost as if

they were coming back for us.

No. It's okay.

It's okay.

Mr. Rorschach, your mother's body may be
missing, but it's filled with

formaldehyde. There's no way it could be
going on its own.

You did the embalming on her mother?

No. That was an apprentice, David
Effenbeck. He was only here for a short

One morning, he was just gone.

The kid was a real artist.

effective what you just did.

I know that none of this is really
happening.

It's all just a figment of my
imagination.

And so is this.

Mother was an only child.

When she got married, she refused to
have more than one herself.

She said it would be unlucky.

What did your father think of that?

He divorced her.

I mean, I was only three years old at
the time.

After the divorce, he made a fortune in
real estate.

But he never gave Mother a cent, so she
wouldn't let him see me.

He died in 1978 in a plane crash.

Mother wouldn't let me go to his
funeral.

Wouldn't even let me see his picture on
the obituary page.

What happened to his money?

It was his one chance to get even with
her.

So he left it all to me.

That really must have pissed your mother
off.

Yeah, I think it's what finally drove
her over the edge, you know, always

thinking about the money.

I remember the day we buried her just
like it was yesterday.

I know it's crazy. I know she can't be
alive again.

Would you believe she's dead when I find
the body and show it to you?

Yes, if you can do that.

There's a light in the cemetery.

Dominic, I want to go down there. No,
I'll check it out, okay?

I just want to go... Let me take you
somewhere safe.

No one can help.

No

one

can help. Mother,

she's here.

And she had this wire coming out of her
mouth like the undertaker said.

It's all right now.

She was right behind me.

You believe me, don't you?

I believe someone was sitting in this
seat.

It was Mother.

There's a way to find out.

Look at these carbon crystals.

It's fascinating, isn't it?

Look at this.

Those match perfectly.

Yes. This is from a sample that Dominic
brought me yesterday.

It's from your mother's grave.

That means that the sample from the pew
is the same as the gravesite. No, better

than that.

I can place this sample inside the grave
right next to the coffin.

Whoever you saw in that church has been
down in that grave.

But these are just soil samples, right?

You see, what we really need is the
piece of the body.

And that means skin scales.

And the place that we're most likely to
find skin scales is on a fabric sample.

This is your sample from the church.

It's from a blue chiffon material.

This is what we're really looking for.

Now, this is a picture of the dust
sample that we took from the bottom of

coffin. You see these items right in the
middle? These are skin scales.

They're for Mother.

Yes.

Now, watch.

I think we have a match.

Yes, it's a definite match.

This is incredible, but I'd be willing
to testify in court that whoever

Professor Rorschach saw in that church
has been inside that coffin for the last

four years.

There's got to be another explanation.

You think all that evidence he found
isn't real?

I didn't say that.

Do you think that this is all just a
figment of my imagination?

Hey, I didn't say that.

Where are we going?

Eddie's.

I'm not sleeping there.

You mean because of Eddie?

Eddie's not the one you've got to worry
about. Your mother is.

I thought you just said she didn't
exist.

What I'm saying is that there's someone
out there who looks a lot like your

mother, okay? You know, you were really
starting to piss me off.

Now, why is that, Professor?

Because every bit of evidence we get,
you reject it.

If you don't have an explanation for it,
you pretend that it didn't happen. Why

can't you just accept that this is
really happening?

I'll tell you what.

If I see your mother, I'll accept it
then, okay?

I'm still not sleeping there.

Fine. We'll get your things.

Where's Eddie?

In the storeroom.

Where's the gun, Eddie?

What gun, man?

My gun, Eddie. The one I gave to
Catherine.

The one she put under her pillow. Where
was it? Tom, I swear I don't know

anything about any gun.

It's all my friend.

I am your friend.

Friends don't steal from friends.

And friends don't lie to friends.

What's the matter? Nothing.

What's that smell?

She was here. Catherine, calm down. No,
Dominic, she was here. What did you

want? It's going to be all right, I
promise you.

You have a lot of books on the occult.

On the devil, on Satanism.

Do you believe in all of this?

If you believe there is a God, you must
surely believe there is a devil.

Father, do you believe that a dead body
can rise from the grave?

Of course I believe that. The very basis
of our faith rests on the resurrection

of Christ.

I'm talking about now, Father.

Is it possible for the physical body of
a dead person to rise from the grave?

I think you should tell me what this is
about.

Catherine believes her mother has risen
from the dead.

I saw her in Los Angeles last week,
twice.

Then I came here to visit her grave, but
her grave was empty.

Your mother's body disappeared. Yes, I
know about that.

Then I saw her again, here in Santa
Paula in a church.

Are you certain it wasn't hallucination?

I'm afraid not, Father.

There was conclusive forensic evidence.

Something happened tonight, didn't it?

We went into Eddie Herbeck's to get some
of Catherine's things.

When we came out, there was... There was
a smell in Dominic's car.

The outline of her figure was burned
into the front seat, right where I'd

sitting. Catherine, when you saw your
mother in church, did you

notice any particular smell?

Oh, there was a stench.

A terrible odor, a lot like the one that
was in Dominic's car.

There was a smell in the grave, too.

The smell. And the odor of sulfur had it
not.

What you smell were the fires of hell.

The devil is among us.

You must be joking. Oh, no, no, no. It
is the devil himself.

He announces his arrival through the
stench of hellfire.

But it was Mother that I saw.

He could create apparitions that appear
real.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

You mean the devil, like in the Bible?
This is no joking matter.

Satan is as real as you and I.

Now, the only way to defeat the devil is
to ally yourself with the Lord.

Here are scapulas, and they will afford
you some protection.

No, thank you, Father. That's all right.
Put it on. Put it on.

Don't leave her alone, Dominic.

A lonely mind is easy prey for the
devil.

Good night, my children.

May God go with you.

I'm not sitting there.

All right, how about I sit there and you
drive?

Don't have a lot of people over.

My wife was a painter.

May I?

Go ahead.

At the police station, you said that I
reminded you of someone.

It was... the last thing she painted.

Was this before she was hospitalized?

What are you talking about?

The painting.

Did she do this before she went into the
hospital?

Kara was never hospitalized.

But Eddie said she was.

When the tumor was diagnosed, after the
x -rays came back,

they wanted to put her in a hospital,
but she didn't want to go.

We had an argument, and I had to go out.

While I was gone, she took my gun,

put it in her mouth, and...

Dominic, I'm sorry.

I found her when I came back.

She was sitting... right here.

Father Ambrose, he told me that... that
she's at

peace now.

You don't have to do that. Come on,
you're my guest.

Give me a spine.

Do you realize what time it is?

Maybe we should wait until the morning
to do this.

Well, I want a clean kitchen for when I
cook tomorrow.

I didn't bring you to cook for me.
You're my guest.

Look, with all that you've done for me,
the least I can do is cook for you.

Besides, I'll be cooking for myself
tomorrow anyway.

She looks very happy here.

You brought a lot of happiness into her
life. You know that, don't you?

She looks like she could be my sister.

It must be pretty weird for you when you
look at me.

When I saw you, I thought... I thought
you'd

come back to life.

Been a long time since I've wanted to
clean up for anybody.

Glad you brought me here.

Hello. Mr. Delisera, this is Angelo
Breska.

I hope I'm not calling too late.

My business, you never get to sleep.

There's going to be plenty of time for
that in the next life.

Those three corpses that went missing, I
understand you're the man who buried

them all.

Did you do all the work on the bodies
yourself?

No, I never cared too much for that part
of the business, fixing up the bodies.

I had an assistant.

He was the best cosmetologist we ever
had.

You know, people used to comment on how
healthy our corpses looked.

Then one day he just up and left.

That's kind of a coincidence. Same thing
happened up here.

We have a corpse that disappeared.

Buried four years ago.

The man that did the embalming was named
Effenbeck.

Effenbeck? The kid that worked for me
was named Effenbeck, too.

You got anything on him?

Driver's license, social security
number, anything?

No, I paid him cash under the table.

It couldn't be the same one.

Four years ago, my guy was working for
me down here full time.

As far as I know, one person can't be in
two places at one time.

Thanks, Mr. Brush.

Thanks.

What is it?

I'm not sure.

Are you expecting someone?

Hey, Dom.

Hope we didn't wake you. To what do I
owe the pleasure?

Found something of yours, Dom.

In a dumpster behind Eddie Herbig's bar.

You just happen to be out that way?

Eddie's dead.

How? Shot in the head.

Slug came from a .357 Magnum. Ran a
ballistics test, and guess what?

The gun disappeared yesterday.

I thought Eddie had taken it.

I understand you two had an argument
about that.

So the gun disappeared, that's your
story?

That is the story.

I thought I told you to get out of town.

I hope we're not interrupting anything.

What are you doing up here?

Read him his rights.

Dominic de la Serra, I'm arresting you
as a material witness in the homicide of

Edward Herbeck. Come on, that's a
bullshit charge and you know it. Screwed

big, Dominic. You and your lady friend.

You leave her out of this.

Can't. Homicide investigation.

Hell, for all I know, that story about
her dead mother, that could be a cover

case she decides to plead insanity
later.

The way I understand it, you're a
psychology professor.

So that would be right up your alley,
wouldn't it?

Let's go.

You want to arrest me, that's fine. But
she can't stay here alone.

Why? You gonna give me those ghost
stories again? They're not stories.

There's something going on here.

I'm fine, Dominic.

It'll only be for a few hours.

Kathy, no one can help.

No one except you.

No one except you.

I'll do anything.

Father's money.

is evil.

Burn it in my grave at the

hour of my death,

and I can rest

in peace.

cooperating with the devil won't save
you.

All I need is a safe place to sleep,
Father.

If you do as he asks, you're only
putting yourself under his power.

You said you had a room.

You know what's wrong with the world
today?

Everybody wants to go to heaven.

Nobody wants to die.

I'm really very tired, Father.

The room is ready, Father.

You're going to let him stay in jail
after all he's done to help you? As long

he's in jail, he's safe.

I want to put a stop to all this before
any harm comes to him.

Good night, Father.

Wait!

You just think I'm a crazy old priest,
don't you? You don't believe a word I've

said.

There'll come a time when you think all
hope is gone, Catherine.

When that time comes, call on me.

No matter how impossible it may seem.

I'll be there. I give you my vow as a
priest.

Wherever you are, I'll hear you.

I will, Father.

I promise you I will.

Miss Rorschach, you're not in some sort
of trouble, are you?

Because if you are, I think you ought to
go to the police.

I've already been to the police.

I need the money my father left me.

Now.

This is a considerable sum of money. Are
you absolutely certain that this is

what you want?

Yes.

Now where do I sign?

You know, I've never actually seen this
much cash.

I just deal with numbers in a computer.
Nine, ten, twenty million a day, but

it's all just numbers.

After a while, you forget you're dealing
with real money.

Two million, seven hundred and twelve
thousand, eight hundred and ninety -two

dollars, as you requested.

Thank you.

Have a nice day.

You too, Miss Rorschach.

You have a nice day, too.

You're out of here.

Someone made bail.

Chief's releasing you on your own
recognizance.

It was a bullshit charge.

He knows you didn't kill Eddie.

Yeah.

So how's it feel, being behind bars?

Did some thinking.

Figured out a couple of things.

Like what?

Like the person that set the fire in
Catherine's apartment was no ghost.

And the person that stole my gun was no
ghost. And the person that killed Eddie,

It was no ghost.

No shit?

I could have told you that.

I only got one problem, though. How is
it possible for one person to be in two

places at the same time?

I'll tell you how.

It is impossible.

Benarek, that's it.

It is impossible.

What the hell are you talking about?
I'll tell you later.

Hey, watch out.

Catherine.

Catman.

I hate

you!

No way.

Catherine, your mother's at peace.

She doesn't need you now.

Father, how can I ever thank you?

I have something for you.

What is this for?

I must go now.

Father Ambrose.

You're supposed to be in jail.

What does it matter?

No one's going to be looking for us.

I guess.

Not the way we look.

You all right?

Yeah.

Look, Dominic, we've got to get out of
here, okay?

What's that smell?

You are not my mother. My mother is

dead.

She looks just fine to me.

You're the one who involved Mother.

David?

Effenbeck? No.

I'm David Effenbeck.

You're the D -Twins from the study.

You thought you were studying us.

But we were studying you.

No one can help you.

No one can help you.

No one.

See, I still can't believe it happened
the way you say it did, Professor.

They were twins.

What one felt, the other one felt.

The pain of the knife, the shock of
seeing his brother die sent him into

arrest. See, I'm not talking about the
twins.

What I'm trying to understand is how you
got out of the grave.

I told you, Father Ambrose dug me out.

Now, you don't really expect me to
believe that, do you?

Why don't you go ask him yourself?

I can't.

He died this morning.

See, he was dead a good 12 hours when he
was supposed to be digging you out of

the grave.

He was there, I swear.

The letter opener, if he hadn't given it
to me... Whatever you say, Professor.

Whatever you say.

You believe me, don't you?
