OK, latte. There you go.

Oh, your nails are so cute. I love it.

- You want another? - Yeah, that'd be great.

- You need to calm down. - Do not tell me how to feel.

Do not tell me how to feel!

Did the fucking doctors... did the fucking doctors tell you that?

No, they don't need to.

Jesus Christ!

What, are you gonna break every fucking dish in the house?

Do you want me to pick them up and pack them up for you when you go?

You know what? You need help.

- I've had help, it doesn't help! - I'm done with this shit!

This medicine doesn't make me me, I'm not me anymore when I take it.

I'm perfectly fine. You are not a doctor.

We'll be OK, Wilbur.

Oh, you're gonna take my baby?

Do you wanna go play?

I'll shoot the guys this way. You shoot from the other way.

- I'm gonna pull out my laser sniper. - OK.

Ah! We're being shot at!

Luke?

Luke?

Luke!

Don't ever run away like that ever again, OK?

- Come on. - Wait!

Can Daniel come with us?

- Daniel? Who's Daniel? - Mum, he's my friend.

OK. Sure.

Daniel, would you come to our house for dinner?

Yes, thank...

You're the last hope to guard the king's fortress!

- Ah! - Ah!

But right now, I'm going to skydive out of a helicopter,

- and you will be flying down videoing it. - Yep.

You have to fold that part in,

and then you have to fold it in half.

A-ha-ha.

- What's that? - It's an origami tea set.

Wow! Did you make that?

I wanted you to have a nice tea party because you've been sad.

Oh... thank you.

Three, two, one.

Say, "Cheeseburger." Click.

We are gonna be just fine. Just you and me.

I have a really cool idea.

You have to press it down while you turn it.

- What are these? - They'll give your mum super powers.

Luke?

Luke?

Lu...

Luke?

Baby...

What... what did you do?

What did you do to me?

It wasn't me. It was Daniel.

Daniel?

Baby, no more Daniel.

No more Daniel, OK?

Here, baby, take this key,

and you can lock up your, er... imaginary friend

in Grandma's dollhouse.

I don't want to.

You have to.

You did something bad. Now, get in.

Get in. Get in!

Get in! Get in!

Get in! Get in! Get in!

Get in! Get in!

'Yeah. Yeah, yeah. I'll come by on the weekend.'

- 'When are you coming?' - Like... today or tomorrow. I don't know.

'I mean, you can do that if you wanna do that,

'but just don't do that because you think I need you to do that, because I'm fine.'

- 'I just... No, you don't have to do that.' - Of course I wanna see you.

'Don't just come home because you don't like the school.

'Maybe you just need to make some friends or something.'

Yo! Check her out.

'I'm not trying to be mean...'

Jesus, goddess of the digital age.

'I wanna see you. Of course I wanna see you, but...'

Can't decide if I wanna bang her or worship her.

A successful photograph is not only about technical equipment.

The lens, the focus, the lighting.

I expect you to really have something...

The most important thing is the relationship

between you, the photographer, and your subject.

Mum?

Mum?

Hi.

Beautiful boy.

Mmm...

- I brought sandwiches. - Oh.

It's ham and cheese.

- Yeah. - It's your favourite.

Thank you.

What are you working on, Mum?

Oh, it is, er...

Sometimes it's the words.

Sometimes I feel like they speak to me. There's messages in... in the books and...

- ...a message in the... - Mum, what happened to the mirror?

Oh...

I didn't like what I saw.

'Get in!'

'It's common for people to see things that aren't real.

'Stress, alone, can do that. I wouldn't worry.'

Well, if I faint like a Victorian duchess

every time I get stressed out by college, it's gonna be a long four years, right?

That's why you're here.

My, er... my mum... she doesn't really trust doctors.

She would not want me to be here.

She's not well.

Er... I think it's been worse since I... left home.

I worry about her a lot.

Fuck, I worry that I could become like her.

I mean, this is supposed to be the age where you can start to...

It can be. What else do you worry about?

Er... sex and death, I guess.

The only topics that should interest an adult.

- Yeah? Says who? - Lou Reed.

But he also said, "Life is like teaching Sanskrit to a pony."

That's good.

Have you ever seen things like this before?

Fuck, er...

Never, really.

- No hallucinations? - No.

Well...

I had an imaginary friend when I was a kid.

Er...

His name was Daniel, and he was my best friend.

He was my only friend, really.

- It's really pathetic. - We all have needs.

Well, I must've had some pretty sick needs, man.

Did something happen with this friend?

- No, no. - Something painful?

No. No, no, no.

Just, you know... kids' stuff.

Well, then.

It's kind of a strange notion, but...

...maybe you shouldn't be afraid of your imagination.

Maybe you should try to connect with that part of yourself again.

- Yo, what the fuck? - Er... I didn't see you.

- Are you OK? - I'm practically bleeding to death.

- Really? What? - Yes, I'm fine.

- Yeah. I'm OK too. - Great. Have a lovely day.

OK, yeah. All right.

'But you know how it is.

'You never miss the water until the well runs dry.'

'Oh, big bad lummox like you, hiring an aeroplane to ride...'

You gotta love yourself.

- What? - Hmm...

'I don't wanna brag, but I still got the dimple and in the same place.

'Look, Hilde, I only acted like any husband that didn't wanna see his home broken up.'

- 'What home?' - 'What home?'

Hey, Wilbur.

How's it going, buddy?

Can't sleep?

Mum?

- Mum? - Huh?

Mum?

Mum?

Mum, what's going on?

- I'm fine! - Mum, it's not fine. What's happening?

- Let me in. - Luke, no.

Stay away from the door, OK? I'm coming in.

- Jesus. What did you do? - I can't... I can't look at this face.

I can't look... I can't look at this face.

Don't touch me!

- Don't touch me. - Mum...

Don't you look at me like that.

Like you're any different. Ha-ha!

It'll be OK, Luke.

- I can't let you live like this. - You, what?

- I can't let you stay here. - You can't let me stay here?

- You can't let me? - I can't let you.

That's OK, because I'm leaving anyway.

No, no, no! No, no, no!

- Let go. - Stop it! Stop it.

- Let go! - No, no, no. Stop!

- Hold the blade to your throat. - Let go. Let go.

Put the blade to your own throat.

Let go, Luke. Let go!

No! No, don't!

- Let go or kill me! - No! What are you doing? Stop!

- Let go. - Stop!

Let go!

Oh, my beautiful boy. My beautiful boy!

OK. We can... we can get you help, Mum. It's OK.

She's gonna get through this.

So are you.

I didn't know that you'd be there... after so long.

You needed my help.

Hey.

Hi.

- My blade swings sharp, sire. - Thy blade is a broom, Daniel.

"Symbolic Logic Strategies"... Why would you study this shit?

Because it's gonna help when I apply to law school.

Law school?

Wasn't your father a lawyer?

Last time I saw you, you were this kid bursting with imagination.

What happened?

You know what fucking happened, Daniel.

- Sorry it took me so long. - Oh, I did not even notice.

- Who is this? - Are you always such a space cadet?

Don't let a gorgeous girl leave your apartment, Luke.

Er... let me get you a reward.

Satisfaction of a job well done.

I... just give me a second. I have some...

Ah, here.

Here.

- It's cool, really. - Insist.

I insist. You came all the way from...

I'll just buy some new paint and think of you.

- You're a painter? - You're an artist too, Luke.

I, er... I do photography sometimes.

Yeah, er...

- My mum had an accident. - With a chainsaw?

That was mean. Is she gonna be all right?

I don't know. I mean, she's in the hospital.

No, that's good. Be vulnerable.

She'll be OK. I...

I've just been cleaning up and trying to take my mind off of it, you know?

Mmm...

I'm going to this opening tonight at a space in Greenpoint.

Bunch of different artists and photographers.

Thanks.

So you're a photographer now, huh?

Er... OK.

Er... Oh, yeah.

I'm coming, right?

I don't think this is a good idea.

I usually get really overwhelmed at these things.

That's because I haven't been around, Luke.

Stop. You're really acting crazy, man.

You think I won't smash this bottle across your smug-ass face?

I knew you were gonna do this. I knew it.

Well, then maybe you should've come prepared then.

- Think you can diffuse this one? - What? No.

Trust me. You got this.

- You're crazy. - You're gonna call me crazy right now?

With a bottle in my hand, you're gonna call me crazy?

- Hi! - What?

Oh, my God!

Sorry. I just realised this place is full of fucking bullshit-ass posers.

Whatever, Cassie.

So you're having a rough night?

Yeah. Sorry. Fuck!

This place literally sucks.

You coming?

Yeah. Yeah.

Louise Brooks, she's, er... a silent film star.

Yeah, the German classic about a woman whose raw sexuality

brings ruin to herself and everyone who loves her?

- Yeah, that one. - That one.

- That's the one. Er... - Yeah.

So, you're studying film?

I watch films. I study psychology.

OK, er... so then, tell me what I'm thinking.

'Whatever you say.'

What are we doing?

Trespassing.

These motherfuckers really need to change their locks.

I worked here for, like, three weeks a year ago.

Ooh!

"Where the Wild Things Are"... I've always wanted to be a wild thing.

You like that book?

"The night Max wore his wolf suit and made mischief of..."

"The night Max wore his wolf suit and made mischief of one kind or another.

"His mother called him a wild thing."

I've always wanted to do this because they're so adamant

- about you not hopping seats. - Whoa! Now spin.

I'm hopping them all.

"The Ways of Seeing"...

This one totally blew me away when I first decided to become an artist.

"Ways of Seeing," me, too. It's actually one of my favourite books.

- I believe it's... - "To be naked is to be oneself."

"To be naked is to be oneself."

"To be nude is to be seen naked by others

"and yet not recognised for oneself."

OK, Super Brain.

Oh, yeah, "The Bible"? It's easy. Come on.

- My favourite. - I know it like the back of my hand.

- Exodus 20. - Exodus 20.

- "And God spoke all these words." - "And God spoke all these words."

"I am the Lord, your God, who brought you out of Egypt

"out of the land of slavery."

"There was a man from Nantucket whose cock was so long he could suck it."

"And you shall not bow down to them or worship them, for I am your God.

"And you shall have no other God before me!"

Amen.

- Great. - Yes. That's not a well-known verse.

Mmm... let's go get some fresh air.

- You are so funny. - Why?

I don't know.

It seems like you always have some type of private joke or something

going on in your head, all by yourself.

Oh, hey. I, er...

I have something I've been working on.

I'd love to show you.

I'm taking a lot of photos.

I like that one.

Damn.

These are hot.

You know you're my inspiration for this entire project, right?

Really?

I figure you deserve to be immortalised.

We! We deserve to be immortalised.

Oh, yeah? You think that I deserve to be immortalised?

Shirt off, please.

What's that thing, er... behind me?

What's that supposed to be?

It's like... your shadow.

Your hidden self.

It's like... I saw something full of danger, mystery.

OK, er...

And you can see it, like, visually, or...?

Maybe I'm the crazy one.

Well...

...crazy isn't always a bad thing.

- Is this OK? - Yeah.

OK?

'Help... me!

'Help me! Help me!'

- Right on time. - What?

- Did you order a pizza? - No.

I brought a friend.

- Hi. - Hello.

Welcome, ladies.

If we threw your roommate off a bridge, we could have these girls to ourselves.

Makayla, meet the fabulously talented Luke Nightingale.

Mmm, he's a total perv.

Can we do something fun? I swear to God, if I drink...

- We've been texting. - ...I will die.

These are your friends now.

- Hey, guys? - These are what friends do.

Fucking groovy.

Very erotic.

- Hurry, bitch. - Yeah.

Apocalypse sex, right, guys?

We've gotta get it in while we can. We'll be wiped out

by a nuclear war, a super flu or a fucking tsunami.

I'm so fucking tired of this little muppet.

If we're ever fuck as much as the boomers, we got to pack it in now.

Honestly, I'd rather die of the super flu than fuck you.

Well... Makayla doesn't.

You know, he kind of reminds me of these guys.

I thought it was funny.

You guys, I got a great idea.

Steam tunnels, miles and miles underneath campus.

Yeah!

Hey, check this out.

This place got five stars on Yelp.

Yeah, well, do you think we're gonna be able to get a table?

The, er... jacuzzi is down this way.

Do you ever feel like you're hiding your true self?

What?

- What do you mean? - I don't know.

Like you have to make a whole new identity just to conceal who you really are.

Yeah, I guess.

- I mean, I feel like I have this... - Just kiss her, Luke.

...this voice in my head that tells me what to do, but I don't always do it.

I feel like there's something intense inside you, like an animal.

Oh, I like her.

What do you mean? Why would you say that... animal?

What are you doing?

Is this is about Cassie?

You're not married, man. Just kiss her.

Hey. You there?

Yeah. Sorry.

- I'm sorry. - You OK?

Er... yeah. I'm just... I'm a lightweight.

Just... can you just give me a second?

Hey.

If you're not gonna do this, let me take over.

It's not cheating if it's me.

Oh, wow! OK, we're doing this.

Smile for the camera.

Smile yourself.

Come here.

Shit. Give me my...

Stop it.

That's it, baby.

Stop it!

Stop it!

No. Stop it! I want my body back!

Please, I want it back. Give me my body back.

You look good in that picture.

I want my body back.

I want my body back!

Hey, we... Are we done here?

- Oh, this fucking guy. - It's hot as fuck.

Whoa! Hey. Fuck you, man!

You dumb fuck.

Stop, Luke! Stop!

What the fuck is wrong with you?

Right...

OK. OK.

They're gonna kick me out of fucking school because of you.

Then I've set you free.

Just like I promised.

OK, I'm gonna... I'm gonna count to three.

I'm gonna close my eyes and I'm gonna count to three.

When I finish, you're gonna be gone.

- All right? - OK.

One.

Two.

Three.

I imagined you. I can make you go away.

Well, then you might as well cut your own head off.

OK. Get in.

Get in.

Get in!

- You can't put me back in that box. - Get in!

You're too crazy!

'Can't keep a lid on your delusions.'

Fucking asshole.

'This place hasn't changed much.'

They even put me in the same room.

Do you think you can come home soon?

I don't know.

This time it isn't up to me.

When did this all start for you?

When did I start to lose my fucking mind?

You know what I mean.

Twenty.

I tried to burn down the college radio station

because I thought the DJs were taunting me.

They sent me home for a semester as though that was a better place for me.

What did that feel like?

Er... like being jacked into an electrical socket.

It was awful and wonderful at the same time, and...

and then suddenly it was only awful.

That's because you weren't doing it right.

You don't have to hide anything, you know?

No. You can... you can talk to me.

Did you know this would happen to me, too?

- No. No... - Why wouldn't you tell me?

No. I didn't... I didn't know. I-I-I didn't...

I always hoped that whatever was happening back then,

whatever happened, that you were doing it because you were angry,

so it was a reaction to your father leaving. What is happening?

- I'm fine. - What is happening right now?

Luke, time to say goodbye to Mummy.

I don't know what's wrong. I wanna help you.

- Luke! - I need to help you. My son needs help.

- No. I'm fine. I'm fine. - OK. He needs help. He needs help.

What? What? No, Luke! No! You need help!

I wish we'd killed you when we had the chance!

I can feel it, there's something wrong. You're not safe!

Something's wrong. Let me go! Let me go!

Luke! Luke!

I can't keep this... I can't keep doing this.

If this keeps going this way, I don't know what I might do.

Hey, Sophie!

'I'm scared of what I could do.'

- Don't come any closer. - Sophie!

You're not even supposed to be on this fucking campus!

- All this fuss about what? - I only came here to apologise.

You wanna see what I really wanna do to her?

I don't wanna hear...

You're out of your fucking mind.

Fuck!

No, wait. No, look, Sophie. Look, it wasn't me.

I told you not to touch me!

Fuck!

I'm warning everyone about you, you fucking monster!

"Help me, Doc, I'm... I'm just so confused!"

Shut the fuck up!

This doesn't sound like you.

No, because it's fucking not me! Right? It's... Or maybe it is me.

'You're not a child, Luke.

'You have to take responsibility for what you've done.'

Daniel is simply an aspect of your mind.

'It's not fucking me.

'When I fall asleep, I think he's... he's taking over my body, you know?

'He's making me do things that I... I don't wanna do.'

I need this to stop.

Talk to me, Luke! You hurt someone.

What have you done?

I tried to kill my mother.

When I was a kid.

Because of Daniel?

- God, I'm just like her. - No... No, Luke, you're not.

'You're something so much more interesting.'

Can you help me?

I just want him to be gone.

What the fuck?

- 'Medication may help you...' - You do this?

...which is a fact of brain chemistry, not a judgement of character.

Leave me alone!

What?

I just want him to be gone.

Don't do it, Luke.

It's gonna cripple your brain.

You can say goodbye to all that photography and the women.

Don't do it.

Fuck!

Oh, you should've seen the look on your face.

Get in! Get in!

'Get in! Get in! Get in! Get in!'

It was quite a spectacle, wasn't it?

All that blood.

Who is it?

Are you Percy Thigpen, John's father?

How did you get this address?

I need your help, please.

- It's the middle of the goddamn night! - Please. Please...

How the hell am I supposed to help you?

Look, I'm sorry to bother you, I...

I was there when your son, you know...

You saw it?

Yeah. After the police had come.

But I saw it.

Hard to go on after a thing like that.

Yeah, I, er...

I just... I think that John and I might be similar.

Similar? How?

OK. How did you find out that there was something wrong with him?

Like, when did you... when did you learn?

We tried to help him, er... medicate him.

He'd... he'd get better for a while, but it wouldn't last.

Drawing seemed to calm him.

It's the one thing that made him happy.

Drawing? Did...

Do you have any of his drawings? Can I... can I look at his drawings?

There's one on the fridge.

Did John ever have a friend, a friend that only he could see?

Well, you mean, an imaginary friend?

When he was a kid, I guess.

OK. How about when he was older? Did he ever hear voices or anything?

Why don't you sit down? Let me get you a glass of water.

Look, I need you to tell me everything, OK?

I need... I need to stop this from happening to me.

Please, just sit down, OK?

I can show you more of his drawings.

- You want me to do that? - Yeah, I do.

Here they are.

Can you tell me your name?

Luke.

Luke, what are you afraid you might do?

You know, he's got the cops on the phone.

Show me your hands.

- Your other hand, show me. - It's OK. It's OK.

We can get you whatever help you need, all right?

Whatever you need. Wait, wait a minute. Hold on.

- This is Daniel. - ♪ La, la, la, la, la, la ♪

This is Daniel and he was with John until he was dead.

Hey! I missed you.

- Are you OK? - I have to sit down.

- That's who you saw. - What?

What are you talking about? That's just a drawing.

No. This is a drawing of...

Twelve years ago, the kid who drew this,

this kid, John Thigpen, he killed a bunch of people, Cassie.

The same fucking thing that happened to him is happening to me.

- Luke... - And I...

I'm scared that I could do the same thing.

- Do you understand what I'm saying? - Mmm... no.

OK, you think you're gonna kill someone because of a drawing?

OK. When you painted me, you saw a shadow, right?

What did he look like?

There's no he.

The shadow was a metaphor for what I saw hiding inside of you.

No, his name is... is Daniel.

Whatever you're doing, this freak-out, please stop.

Just talk to me.

You saw him. Look! You fucking saw him!

Look there, there, there. It's right here.

- That's him. - Luke, stop, stop. No!

You saw him. He's right fucking here.

I just saw your darkness and that's OK.

He'll take over.

Please.

'Why don't I come down to your mother's apartment?'

You're gonna regret this, Luke!

Those pills don't work.

To be honest, I try not to depend entirely on Western medicine.

There are other approaches.

The mind reflects its environment.

This was your world when it all started.

I want to know what Daniel has to say.

What, so you think he's real?

He's a real part of your mind, but he doesn't have to be.

I'm going to induce a state of hypnosis in both of us.

The Tibetan singing bowl is said to bring clarity to the mind.

The dagger is strong enough to pierce illusions,

to destroy our demons, or as we call them these days, our trauma.

Do you think this is gonna work?

We need to engage with the delusion on its own terms.

Is Daniel here now?

Of course. He's always here.

What's he saying?

He says, "Fuck off." He says...

He's saying some really nasty stuff.

Lie down.

Close your eyes and go inside this sound.

Fear and loneliness...

...are some of the most powerful emotions humans can experience.

These feelings can grow inside us

until they rule our every thought.

The mind will do anything

to avoid confronting just how alone it is in the universe.

Luke... can you hear me?

In the distance.

Follow the sound... of my voice.

Daniel, can you hear me?

Daniel, talk to me.

Daniel?

Daniel... talk to me.

About what?

It's just like you said. He's weak.

He's lonely.

And he's nothing without me.

What are you?

Oh... just a traveller...

...searching for a home.

This is gonna be really painful. For you.

Oh, my God.

Fuck! Oh, my god!

Fuck!

Oh, my God!

Stay back. Stay away.

You know...

...the more you tell somebody not to do something...

...the more they just go ahead and do it.

It's OK. I feel a lot better now.

I am the abyss.

Get in. Get in.

Get in! Get in! Get in! Get in!

Get in.

Behold.

Your castle, sire.

No!

Wait! Wait!

Wait! Wait!

I need to be sure you're completely calmed down before letting you in.

I know.

I wasn't in control before, but I'm... I'm doing a lot better now.

- Great. - You know how it is.

When you get so angry, you just can't control it.

You know, I really do like this.

People usually don't see me... Not like that.

'Luke...'

Luke.

I know you feel alone and like you can't get rid of your shadows, but...

I don't think we should get rid of the shadows.

I think that we should let the shadows rule us.

Hey...

We should go away together, don't you think?

Yes.

Uh, what did you have in mind?

Uh, I don't know, we could rob a bank,

fly around the world, start a revolution somewhere.

Remember when you painted me?

You wanted to touch that darkness, didn't you?

You don't get it.

I saw the true Luke.

I wanted that shadow to go the fuck away.

Fine.

I've been... I've been kind to you.

I've shown you... sensitivity.

Fuck this whole charade.

I am so sick of this face.

'Oh, my God...

'Luke.'

Cassie.

'I've worn a lot of different faces.'

Cassie?

No!

OK...

Yes!

No!

You John Thigpen?

You're John Thigpen, aren't you?

How do I get out of here?

Get back here!

Where's Luke?

I know you're in there.

What's out there?

The abyss.

And what did they do to us?

Luke!

I know you're in there.

Luke!

You're a fucking parasite!

For centuries, I've helped people. I've solved their problems.

I've given them visions!

And no one's deserved any of it. You're the parasite, Luke.

If I go, you go.

You're not strong enough.

Luke.

Luke.

Luke!
