Original subtitles

Do you have enough money?

That depends... Do you mean for just a soda,

or a soda and a candy bar.

How can you kids eat all that sugar?

It takes lots...

Lots of practice.

Thanks, Mom.

Yeah, well don't be too thankful.

You're off sweets for the next month.

Start thinking fresh fruit.

So what are you girls up to today?

Just hanging out.

Well, you're not meeting any boys, I hope.

That's gross.

Oh, really? Well, I bet you don't feel that way for too much longer.

Actually, I think Ricky Wilkes might be down here today.

I think he likes me.

Oh, really? And how can you tell?

Well, he told me I had pretty hair,

and Donna said that means he likes me.

And what does he think about ponytails?

How did my sweet little baby

become such a beautiful young lady, huh?

It must be all that sugar.

Must be all my love.

I love you too, Mom.

Bye. I'll be back at 5:15 to pick you up. Don't be late.

I won't.

Hey, Lisa, over here!

What took you so long?

And then Miss Cook asked if anybody remembered what an amoeba was,

and then Jeffrey raised his hand,

and said it was "a one-celled orgasm."

So what exactly is an orgasm?

Sex, stupid. Why don't you ask your mother?

What the...

Oh!

Hello.

Did you get any lunch?

I think I officially missed it.

Lisa had a half day of school, so I dropped her off at the park.

And I think she has a boyfriend.

Party's over for you, girl.

Lisa's about to trade in her Ken doll for the real thing.

As usual, your compassion is overwhelming.

That's what I'm here for

I had lunch at C.J.'s today,

so I grabbed you a sandwich on the way out.

I had a feeling you might need it.

Oh, you had a feeling, huh?

Apparently it wasn't a good feeling.

Uh, careful... a person could lose their arm that way.

Ooh, and something for dessert.

Well, now that you've made it official

we can plan your honeymoon.

If my calculations are correct,

we have only six short weeks.

I have a better idea...

Why don't you take charge of Lisa's love life instead of mine?

I don't think I can handle both.

Ooh, Hawaii... excellent choice.

I guess you figured I'd look great in one of those grass skirts?

Better save that for your man.

Oh, speaking of which...

I still haven't received those P.D. staffing reports.

I think I need your executive clout.

Okay. I'll go rough somebody up as soon as I'm done.

Thanks.

We can't both ride, somebody's gotta push.

I'm always the one that pushes.

Adrian.

I'm gonna go get a soda.

Hello?

Help me.

Who... who are you?

Are you an angel?

Hi, Leslie.

Oh, hi.

Did you get it?

Hi.

Did I get what? Your... recommendation for a bonus?

Dream on... The invitation. You haven't R.S.V.P.'d yet.

Well, I just got it yesterday...

and I don't know if the chief's gonna give me the day off.

I'll put in a good word for you. I want you there.

But I really came to bug you about the staffing projections.

I'm putting together next year's salary budget

and my people are telling me that the police department

just... isn't cooperating.

You're talking to the wrong man.

I only did those last year when I was Acting Chief.

After Mitch came on board,

all the budgetary work fell into his lap.

So, you're telling me to go bug Mitch. Is he in?

I don't think so.

He had a lunch meeting with the Mayor,

he's not back yet.

Really? I guess that's why the Mayor canceled his 1:30 with me.

Oh, well, I always enjoy our little visits.

You enjoy my candy jar, you mean.

Yeah... if I don't stop eating this

I'm gonna hate to see what I look like on my wedding day.

Actually, I'd rather see what you look like on your wedding night.

Lieutenant, we just got a call from 239,

there's been a homicide at Samuels Park.

Grounds keeper discovered a child's body

Oh, god...

I'm on my way.

Are you all right?

I dropped Lisa off at the park about an hour ago.

I'm sure Lisa's fine,

but why don't you ride down there with me. Thanks, Bob.

I want to see... push...

Stop pushing...

Donna, have you girls seen Lisa?

No... uh, she, uh...

Where's Lisa?

I don't know. We were playing on the merry-go-round

but we haven't seen her in a while.

Did you hear they found a dead body?

I think it would be a good idea if you girls went home now.

Lisa... Lisa...

Lisa!

Lisa.

What are you doing in there?

Mommy... Mommy, you've got to help me, help me find it.

Find what?

The grave, her child's grave.

We've got to find it or more children will die.

Who's child?

The lady... she's in there...

Stay here.

There's no one in there, honey, there's nobody in there.

What did this lady look like?

Like an angel...

...covered in light.

Honey, you're just upset, let's go home.

No! He killed that little girl over there,

and he killed the forgotten child, too.

He'll do it again if we don't stop him now,

please, help me find the grave!

Lisa... Lisa, it's just...

What do you think you're doing?

Get away from us, please!

Hey, Peanut, what's all this about a grave?

How do you know they found a little girl over there?

The cops haven't said anything yet, maybe she's an eye witness.

For heaven's sake, she doesn't know anything.

Maybe more than you think.

So, Cupcake, why don't you tell me about this "angel" you saw?

Why don't you find something better to do

than harass a little girl?

Chief Graham, have you identified the body yet?

We'll get you a statement when everybody else does.

Come on, Chief, give me a break,

she says it's a little girl over there. Is that true?

Wait here for a second.

So, what do we got?

It's a child,

little girl. Maybe nine, ten years old.

Is the coroner here?

He's on his way.

Chief, can you give me a second?

Yeah.

How's she doing?

How about I give the two of you a ride home?

Oh, Bob, that'd be great.

Mitch, I'm gonna have Bob run us home,

I want to get Lisa out of here.

That's okay, Bob. I'll take them.

Feel like a ride, Princess? Come on.

Listen, Chief, it's no problem.

I'd do it if you want to stick around here.

Oh, I'm not gonna be long. Just get the area sealed off.

No problem.

A child is a murdered, wouldn't you think the Chief of Police

would want to take command of the crime scene?

We can handle it.

I know that.

I just hope this guy's got his priorities straight, that's all.

Mom, we have to help the lady.

We have to find the forgotten child.

What lady?

In the old shed.

If we find her forgotten child,

maybe we can stop him.

Stop who, honey?

Honey, you were just upset.

Just try not to think about it.

I should have found that grave.

Now I don't know what's gonna happen.

Sweetie, you'll feel better when you get home.

Have a nice hot bath, put on some fresh clothes, okay?

How is it?

Great.

Sweetie... um...

about the park...

about the lady...

Do you have any idea who she was?

I don't know...

but she shined just like the angel on our Christmas tree.

Do you think somebody's going to hurt me...

like that little girl in the park?

No, honey, of course not.

I would never let anyone hurt you. Never.

How's everything?

Lisa's pretty shaken up.

What was going on with her, anyway?

I'm not sure... I think she'll be okay.

So... fill me in.

Well, the coroner's about ready to move the body

he confirms it's a homicide. Big surprise.

Uh, Chief, we're going to need to get the area secured overnight.

I want to call in the State Police Forensic team

to go over the area in the morning.

Done. Anything to go on so far?

Yeah...

We found them on the little girl's wrists.

They have our stamp on them: H.L.P.D.

It'd be a stupid mistake for a cop.

Yeah...

probably stolen.

Hi.

Hi. I rescheduled your four o'clock for Monday.

Nobody minded at all.

Great, thanks.

So, how's Lisa doing?

She's still pretty shaken up, but she'll be okay.

Good. You sounded really upset on the phone.

Well, of all the days to take her to the park, I had to take her today.

This poor kid's had enough death to deal with.

Oh, Ellen, she was only four when Tom died.

Y'know, you're probably right.

I'm just... worried about what's going on with her

Thanks for coming over. I promise I won't be long.

Okay. Bye.

Oh!

Oh, dear God!

Oh, Lisa!

Oh, Lisa...

Two-three-nine to base.

Go ahead, 239.

The Chief wants the coroner down here at the park.

" The coroner"? He's already been and gone.

He needs him again. there's another body down here, in the tool shed.

Advise the watch officer. Two-three-nine out.

Well... based on the size of the skull, it looks like a child.

The forgotten child?

How could Lisa have known that?

Those bones look like they've been there for years

I need to ask her about this "angel" she said she saw.

Oh, no, please. I don't want her involved in any of this.

She's just a little girl.

Well, I know that, Ellen.

I don't want to upset her.

But can't we shield her from as much of this as we can?

I mean, she really frightened me today.

And it's not as if these old bones really mean anything.

That shack could have been built over an old cemetery or something.

Did you identify the little girl?

Yeah.

Her name's Jodie Fischer.

Fifth grader over at Craigmore Elementary.

Her parents live up on Haven Hill Drive.

Those poor people.

How could someone do that to a little girl?

...local officials are saying very little about the connection,

if any, but the exclusive videotape...

Hello.

...station in Haven Lake.

Come here quick.

What is it? Where's Lisa?

She's upstairs.

...let's look at it again.

What did this lady look like?

Like an angel... covered in light.

Honey, you're just upset. Let's go home.

No! He killed that little girl over there, and he killed...

They keep talking about Lisa.

They said she was right about some grave.

Channel 3 keeps showing this video over and over.

What is going on?

Get away from us, please.

I can't believe this is happening.

The newscaster says that Lisa knows something

about the murdered child they found in the park.

That her "lady" knows. Ellen, what does that mean?

It means my little girl's in trouble,

and I don't know how to help her.

And as Lisa has prophesized

will the killer of the Fischer girl kill again?

This is Hank Dodge reporting from Samuels Park in Haven Lake.

I hope I'm not disturbing you, Your Excellency,

but I wanted you to know that I've

referred a number of calls from the media to your office.

Not to worry, Edward.

You can't imagine how many reporters have already contacted us.

They even want to interview me on the late news.

The family doesn't belong to my parish,

they're probably not even Catholic.

But, I'd like to pay them a visit, speak to the girl.

I assume you'll want to establish an official position.

Yes. I'm quite certain that, despite the rumors,

the child has not claimed to have seen the Blessed Mother.

If you could interview her,

then we can disassociate ourselves from this whole business.

It would be good to know exactly what is going on with the child.

I'll try to meet with them as soon as possible.

Goodbye, Your Excellency.

Sorry, I'm late.

Any prints on the cuffs?

We lucked out.

The cuffs were almost wiped clean,

but the killer missed a spot.

Now, it's only a partial, about 50 percent of a full print,

but what's there is mint.

I sent it off to D.C.

Good. We'll get a match without a full print.

Yeah.

Yeah. This is good.

It'll be enough for the F.B.I. Nice going, Warren.

Hi, honey... they in bed yet?

Yep, they're all tucked in.

Rough day for you, honey?

Gina, don't even ask.

Maybe I can make it better.

Just bet you can.

Here...

You are beautiful, baby.

I love you.

Not him again.

I'm sorry, hon. I'll go talk to him.

Buddy?

Open the door...

What's the matter, little man?

I hate him.

He's a good man, Buddy, and he wants to be your daddy.

I hate him. Why do you let him touch you?

Buddy, you know it's wrong to spy on people.

Now when adults love each other...

We don't need him. Mother, I love you.

I need him, Buddy. You'll understand that someday.

Now, let's get back to bed. It's getting late.

Now, goodnight, my little man.

It's bad to spy on them.

Shut up or I'll kill you.

You're the one that's gonna get killed

when I tell Daddy what you said about him.

And I'm going to tell.

He's not our dad.

Mommy loves him, and I do too. Look at the dolly he gave me.

I hate you!

My poor Buddy...

What kind of a devil crawled into your soul?

Sweetheart, I thought you were sleeping.

You're crying? Come here. What is it?

The Lady...

Okay, honey, Mommy's here.

I saw the lady,

except she looked real.

And I saw her little girl,

and their daddy,

and Buddy.

"Buddy"?

"My poor, Buddy.

"What kind of a devil crawled in your soul?"

- Give 'em a little bit here. - Come on, keep it moving.

Come on, come on...

Right there, let's go...

The woman with the little girl saw it?

This is crazy.

What do they want?

Mommy, who's Mary?

Get away from the window.

Oh, honey, I'm sorry. I'm just a little jumpy.

Think I'll go out there and talk to them.

Maybe I can get them to go away.

But I don't want you to go.

Don't worry, it's okay. You saw the policemen out there.

Why don't you go up and get dressed, huh?

...that Lisa has been chosen to hear the Word.

For the Bible tells us: "And from a child..."

Somebody's coming out of the house!

Miss Downey? can we get a statement, please,

Miss Downey! Can you tell us about the vision?

Please, listen to me... Will you please listen to me?

There's nothing here for you to see. Just leave us alone.

All right, quiet down!

Hey, Chief. Are you conducting an official investigation into Lisa's Lady?

My department is dealing with more critical concerns

than the imagination of a frightened little girl.

Those bones weren't imaginary, were they?

We're looking into it.

What about the Fischer girl, Chief? Any connection between her and those bones?

Look, you people are trying too hard.

The top priority of my department is Jodie Fischer,

we know she was murdered.

By Captain Moonlight.

Ma'am, Captain Moonlight is no stranger to your little girl.

Chief, can we talk to the little girl?

Okay, folks, that's it.

I want you to stay back and leave these people alone,

right back to the sidewalk.

Listen, don't worry about all these reporters,

and "Captain Moonlight" out there.

I'm not gonna let things get out of hand, y'know.

You okay?

I just don't want Lisa to have to go through this.

This is getting too much.

There'll be patrolmen out there day and night.

No one will bother you, I promise.

I've, um, brought in a Dr. Perry Azzaro...

to develop a psychological profile of Jodie Fischer's killer.

Now, he's a psychiatrist...

I'm sure he'd talk to Lisa if you wanted him to.

Maybe.

Ellen... I really wish I could...

I wish I could take you and Lisa away to a deserted island,

no badges, no briefcases...

Just be a family.

Me too.

Y'know, I could probably sneak the two of you out back...

Feel like hiding out in your office for a while?

Oh, that's a great idea.

Maybe when we get back these lunatics will be gone.

You don't know your history, you shouldn't be a reporter.

All those people practically in my house,

and I can't make them go away.

Have you considered taking her away?

Why don't you go visit your folks?

The press would probably just follow us there,

and I can't bring my parents into this madness.

Yes!

She seems okay to me.

Chief stopped in this morning.

He wanted the personnel files on all police department staff.

For the murder investigation?

He didn't say, but it's got to be.

Looks like the rumor about finding that girl

in police handcuffs may be true, doesn't it?

It gives me the creeps to think

I might be working in the same building as a murderer.

I'm gonna go talk to Mitch.

Uh, listen, while I'm at P.D. would you do something for me?

Sure.

There was an old man at my house, he was causing quite a stir.

The press was interviewing him.

See if you could find out who he is

and get a number on him if you can?

All right, Nancy Drew...

what are you trying to uncover this time?

This time... I'm honestly not sure.

Hey, Cybernut, want to go for a walk?

Okay.

The F.B.I. haven't been able to I.D. the print so far.

Damn. I hope they're not giving up.

No, they're gonna run it through the criminal database system again.

If that comes up empty, they'll search through the military records.

What about law enforcement?

Well, those, too.

What does the Coroner have to say?

Hi, Alice. Is Mitch in his office?

Hey, girl. I've been worried about you guys.

Oh, we're okay.

I'm gonna go find Mitch.

Lisa!

Ellen, Ann's got a Dr. Perry Azzaro on the line.

Chief Graham asked him to give you a call.

She'll be all right. You can take it here.

Thanks.

Hello.

If you look at item 14,

what's most unusual about the whole report

is what the coroner said about the murder weapon itself.

It isn't some kind of knife?

Some kind seems right.

But on the basis of the entry and exit wounds on both sides of the body,

it had to be longer than any kitchen knife.

Actually, something exactly like this old bayonet

Where'd this come from?

In the shed, with the remains.

It doesn't make any sense.

What possible connection could there be?

I've seen that sword before.

What did you say, honey?

I said I've seen that sword before,

in the Lady's house.

Sweetheart, let's go back to my office.

But, mom...

We need to talk.

Where's Lisa?

She went to the copy room with Ann.

Mitchell, I don't want her dragged into this investigation.

I told you that.

I didn't realize she'd come into the office.

I didn't even know she was there.

Ellen, in order to track down Jodie Fischer's killer,

I have to investigate every possibility.

Now, if Lisa can help me do that...

What could she know?

That's what I need to find out.

Mitch, she's confused,

and she's probably frightened.

I can't believe that Lisa's Lady,

is the most promising lead you have in this case.

Okay. Let's forget about the case for a minute. Let's...

Let's concentrate on Lisa for a moment.

This "lady" business isn't normal, it isn't healthy.

There is something very strange going on with our little girl,

I want to know what it is.

You seem determined to avoid it.

All I'm determined to do is to keep the police department

from involving my daughter in a murder case.

Do you honestly think I'd do anything to hurt her?

No.

But none of this can be good for her.

You've got to support me.

Oh, I have been.

I didn't ask Lisa about her Lady

because you made it clear to me you didn't want me to.

That's being supportive.

And I didn't question you about why you went back

to that shed and pulled up the floor.

But now Lisa suddenly appears in the station,

claiming to have seen the damn murder weapon,

right in front of my investigating officer and my second in command.

Ellen!

I have to get this killer.

I'm also responsible to the people of this city.

And I'm responsible for the well-being of my daughter.

I mean the TV stations think she's the hottest thing since Princess Di.

And those fanatics who are building a shrine

on my front steps think she's Saint Bernadette.

And now you want to turn her into some sort of carnival fortune teller

who's going to miraculously solve a tragic murder.

Well, guess what? She's a nine-year-old kid,

that's all she should have to be.

I agree. But there's still a killer out there,

and he might just be sick enough to hurt another child

if we don't find him and stop him.

I know... I know...

What if Lisa can help?

Oh, you're asking me to put her on display like some kind of freak,

to put her through hell.

How do you know that? We don't even know what's happening.

I know exactly what's happening to her.

From the minute she was born,

I prayed that things would be different for her.

but when I looked under those floor boards I knew.

What's happening to Lisa happened to my mother,

and my grandmother, and probably her mother before her...

and it's happened to me, too.

I don't understand.

My little girl,

my sweet child,

can see things.

She can know things that other people can't know.

You're saying she's psychic.

I'm saying she's cursed.

I would've told you sooner, I just...

I just kept hoping for another explanation.

Ellen,

these kinds of abilities are viewed as...

I don't know... gifts.

Well, I can show you the scars that say otherwise.

I was about five when I first learned about my mother's ability.

She had a premonition,

a vision of a school bus accident.

My kindergarten class was going on a field trip into the city to the zoo,

and Mom showed up at the school just before we left

and she pulled me off the bus and she tried to get the school

to call off the trip...

But they didn't listen to her.

They thought she was having a breakdown.

Anyway...

it was raining when the bus was on its way home that night,

and the driver lost control going around a curve,

and the bus rolled over into a ravine and burst into flames...

and a lot of kids died.

But your mother was right,

If they 'd listened to her, those kids wouldn't have died.

People are afraid of psychic power.

Nobody embraced my mother,

to thank her for what she tried to do.

Some people even hated her. They said that...

she didn't try hard enough to stop the field trip.

Some people even blamed her,

said she jinxed the bus.

And after that, my dad lost his business...

And I still remember what it felt like at school...

all the teachers and the kids,

they just made me feel so guilty for being alive.

Some gift, huh?

You have these visions, too?

Not anymore. I did when I was Lisa's age,

and they scared me to death.

Did they just stop?

Oh, no. I had to learn how to control them, I could always...

I could always feel their onset and I just,

I taught myself how to stop it.

It was no gift that devastated my parents,

and it was no gift that caused my grandmother to be known as the town witch.

I never let that happen to me,

and I'm not going to let it happen to Lisa.

So, Chief,

now that you know about all the crazy women in my family,

you still want to get married?

That depends...

Do you read minds, too?

No.

Okay, then...

I just might have a few secrets of my own.

You have to help me protect her.

You have to help me keep her out of it.

I know how much she can be hurt...

and I can't let that happen.

We can't let that happen.

Please...

Okay, sweetie, come on, we gotta get going.

Just one more minute, Mom.

Here's the information on Simon Falk,

the old man at your house.

He lives in a retirement home.

Come see what I did, Annie.

Nicole, may I speak to Mitch please?

He did?

No, that's okay, I'll talk to him later. Thanks.

Anne?

How far would I be pushing the bounds of our friendship

if I asked you to take Lisa to dinner for me tonight?

Well... how much would you be willing to spend on that dinner?

I'll have to reschedule my date with Brad Pitt.

Forge my signature.

I do it every day.

Munchkin, how do you feel about French cuisine, huh?

Sorbet... pate... fillet...

Have fun, you two.

Bye, mom.

I've been looking out there for a comet,

that nobody's named yet.

But you didn't come here to talk about astronomy, did you, Mrs. Downey?

Why did you come to my house today?

I saw your daughter on the T.V.

and I heard what she said about the forgotten child.

And then I heard about the bones they found.

And you know something about these bones?

Sit.

It was in the early sixties. There was this Captain,

and he was a military policeman from the army base,

and he just married this young woman...

and became stepfather to her two children.

Now, I was teaching school at the time

and the little girl was in my class.

Anyway, one day the Captain went berserk...

and he attacked his wife and step-son,

almost killed the poor woman,

and it was in that shed, in the park,

where your daughter had her apparition.

Now, the grounds keeper came in and saw the woman covered in blood,

and the captain beating on the boy...

he grabbed a tool from the wall...

and... the old timer just didn't know his own strength.

He killed him?

Stone dead with one blow...

And the little girl turned up missing.

They never did find her...

until now, that is.

The bones?

Yeah.

But how does Captain Moonlight fit into all this?

Oh, some policeman came up with that,

it's from Irish folklore, it's a bogeyman.

And the press picked up on it,

and the Captain became known as Captain Moonlight.

But if he was dead, why did you announce

to everyone that Captain Moonlight killed Jodie Fischer?

That wasn't my idea, that was your daughter's.

She said on T.V. that the fellow that killed the Fischer girl,

also killed the Forgotten Child.

So whatever happened to the boy?

He was adopted by a foster family

as I recall... Moved out west.

And the mother, you said, she almost died.

She was in a coma for the longest time...

must be dead by now...

Come on, Buddy, give her back!

Give her back!

Mommy!

Mommy!

Stop it, Buddy, stop it!

I promise, I promise!

Mommy, he's killing her!

Stop! You're killing her!

Mommy, he's killing.

Stop, Buddy!

Mommy, he's killing her! Mommy!

Mommy, make him stop!

Mommy, he's a killer!

Mommy! Mommy!

Sweetheart!

Mommy! Sweetheart, I'm here.

Buddy's a killer and he's gonna hurt me, too.

No, no, no, no, honey, nobody's gonna hurt you.

It's okay, it's okay... Mommy's here.

Mommy's here, honey, nobody's gonna hurt you.

Okay...

You want to look pretty for your son, don't you, old girl?

Today's his visiting day again.

You are truly loved, you know.

Your boy always visits you, and he never misses a week.

I hope you know how lucky you are.

He's such a wonderful son.

I'll get it, that's the doctor.

Okay, I'll get it.

Hello. Is your mother home? Yeah.

Hello...

I'm Ellen Downey. Thank you so much for coming

Oh, Mrs. Downey, I tried to call before coming, but couldn't get through.

I'm Father Edward Aiken from St. Anne's Church.

Lisa, would you wait upstairs, please?

Oh, the policemen are still out there.

Jim Adams used to be one of my altar boys.

I guess he thinks I'm not a lunatic,

or at least not a dangerous one.

Father, I'm not accepting any visitors

and I'm not making any statements.

And if you've come to validate some sort of religious sighting,

I'm afraid we can't help you.

Mrs. Downey, I can assure you the last thing we want to do,

is to declare your daughter's experience to be something religious.

I was asked to stop by so we could truly say... we looked into this matter.

You're not the only one being hounded by the press, you know.

I'm sorry, Father, I didn't mean to be rude.

Please... come in.

Traveling a bit incognito today, aren't you, Father?

Actually, I didn't think it would benefit either of us

if I came marching up your sidewalk looking like The Exorcist.

Good thinking.

Good morning, Chief.

Hey, Bob. Any news from Washington?

Hill says nothing yet.

Mitch, do you think it's possible

Lisa really does know something about this Fischer murder?

I can't guarantee you that it's all in her imagination,

but I don't want to go down that road.

What we need to do is to forget about angels,

and get down to some good old-fashioned detective work.

Get Hill in here.

I want to review everything we got so far.

Right, Chief.

From what you've told me, I don't see anything religious here,

though I wish you would reconsider and let me talk to your child.

Maybe another time.

I'm not sure how well she's dealing with all of this,

and uh, I don't want to push her.

If you don't mind my asking,

do you belong to a particular faith?

Well, we're not Catholic, if that's what you mean.

Sometimes children who have visions,

suffer from an emotional imbalance caused by all the dogma we throw at them.

And I'm not just talking about Catholics.

Devils and angels, Heaven and Hell.

Pretty heavy stuff, for any kid.

Well, Lisa thinks her Daddy's in heaven,

but that's the extent of her religious connection.

Thank you, Mrs. Downey. I'm sure my Bishop will be relieved by what I report.

Hey, Edward...

you're looking rather progressive these days, aren't we?

Just trying to keep a low profile.

Yeah, you and Warren Beatty, huh?

Perry and I were in the army together.

I was a chaplain in his medical unit.

Hi, Mrs. Downey? I'm Perry Azzaro. Nice to meet you.

Call me Ellen.

I'll phone you later, Perry.

You still owe me a beer from the last Tigers' game. I intend to collect.

All right.

Nice guy, isn't he?

Come in.

Well, you have a very, lovely little girl there.

Thank you. I think so, too.

So, did she tell you about her visions?

In vivid detail.

though there seems to be a lot of things that she just can't remember.

I know.

Still, the visions seem very real to her, don't they?

They're real.

Look, Ellen, I'm not a parapsychologist.

I mean, dealing with psychic phenomenon is, uh...

I mean, it's clearly outside the bounds of my practice.

Dr. Azzaro, I know that Lisa's psychic experiences are real,

because I've had them, too.

Lisa's experiences are different, though.

They're stronger... they're more powerful.

I mean, she's... she's actually communicating with someone.

This is beyond anything that's ever happened to me.

And you want me to help her to deal with this experience emotionally?

Yes... and more than that.

I mean, if what Lisa's envisioning is true,

and this Buddy is somehow connected to Jodie Fischer's murder,

then Lisa's connected and she's in real danger.

But I just don't know if I can be helpful with these visions.

I'm not asking you to help her with what she can see,

I want... I want you to help her with what she can't see...

Fill in those memory gaps.

Dr. Azzaro, I need to know who Buddy is.

Well, I have had positive results with hypnotherapy.

I think I could get her to face whatever's in her subconscious.

Look, Ellen, I understand your concern.

I mean, the kind of man that killed the Fischer child is like a ticking bomb,

he'd be enraged,

perhaps reliving some very painful experience from his past,

and probably driving himself mad trying to conceal it.

I think Jodie Fischer was probably just a convenient target

for a homicidal impulse,

that's undoubtedly growing harder and harder to control.

Look, if you really believe that Lisa is somehow in danger...

How soon could you do it?

This evening.

So, my being here is okay with the girl's mother?

Yeah, I called her right after we spoke

and I told her I could use your assistance.

Did I mention you're going to help me out in an experiment?

You're not planning on conjuring up a devil, are you?

Father Edward, can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

Now, when you awaken, you will no longer be Father Edward,

you will be...

Edward the Rooster.

When I count to three, you will awaken.

One...

two...

three.

Did it work?

I'm not sure...

Is there an Edward the Rooster in the room?

I'm so glad you had him call.

He's just wonderful with Lisa,

he's made her feel so comfortable about all this.

Great. I'm hoping he can help me solve the Fischer case.

How do you know Father Aiken?

He's part of our jail ministry.

Seems like a nice guy.

Mitch, you are going to check out the story

that Simon Falk told me, aren't you?

I'm not so sure that old Simon isn't just another nutcase.

I really don't like the idea of you going out there on your own.

I called you, you weren't there.

And he's not a nut.

I really think that you should look into this Captain Moonlight story.

I have this sense that there's a real connection there.

And I love the fact that you want to look out for me,

but I'm not a little girl.

Ooh, I know that you're not a little girl.

Come here.

Uh, Chief... I think you better help me with the iced tea.

Lisa...

What else about he Lady?

She wants me to help her.

Help her with what?

To stop Buddy from... killing again.

Lisa... Who's Buddy?

Lisa, does the Lady know Buddy?

He's disguised...

Don't let his clothes fool you,

he's close.

Who's he?

He...

He's...

Mommy!

Bob... come in.

Thank you.

Sorry if I'm interrupting anything...

Can I speak to Mitch for a minute?

Of course. Thank you.

What's up?

Oh, I hope this isn't bad timing...

it's just that a couple of the men have phoned in sick tonight,

leaving us short on night patrol,

so I've pulled Adams from his position here,

there's only a few people still milling around out there.

I figured one man could handle it.

This could have waited, Bob.

You notify station control?

Not yet.

I'll do it. I want to check in anyway.

She said don't be fooled by his clothes...

Do you think she could've been talking about a police uniform?

Buddy's a cop?

It sure seems like a strong possibility.

I don't suppose that there are any Buddy's on the department's payroll?

I'm sure it's a nickname.

Look, Ellen, I think she knows him. You know...

it's hurting her to have to face it.

Bob... Have you two met?

Dr. Azzaro, this is Lieutenant Bob Marsden. He's an old friend.

Oh, hi Lieutenant, nice to meet you.

My pleasure, Doctor.

I know that you've been working with the Chief on the Fischer case.

Tragic what happened to that child.

Yes, it is.

But I have a feeling we're getting closer to catching our killer.

They're talking about me in there, aren't they?

You know, I thought my mother made great peanut butter cookies,

but I think you got her beat.

Father Aiken,

do you think that the lady's a... an angel?

I don't know.

Before, I thought she was just in your imagination.

Now I think I was wrong.

Well, then what is she?

Something extraordinary.

Maybe from another world.

From Heaven?

Maybe she is.

Uh-oh, let's try that one again.

Hey... you know that print that Haven Lake sent us?

Yeah, I just ran it through military data base.

I got a match on a Marine Corps record.

Yeah, well...

Before you pop the cork, you'd might want to get down here and take a look.

Yeah, you may be the lucky agent who gets to tell Haven Lake,

Michigan their Police Chief is a child killer.

Getting sleepy?

Yep.

Mom...

I'm different from other people, aren't I?

How do you think you're different?

Well, because I can... see things...

Because I can talk to the Lady.

Can you see things, too?

I have...

In fact,

All the women in our family have been given something...

special...

that allows us to see things that other people can't see.

Is that bad?

No. No, it's not bad,

but it can be pretty frightening

when you see things that you don't understand,

and it can be pretty scary when people treat you differently

because you can see things.

It wasn't scary at first, not until I saw Buddy.

Honey, I learned how to stop my vision...

I think you can learn how to stop yours, too.

Do I have to be hypnotized again tomorrow?

Oh, Sweetie...

let me think about that...

In the meantime, it's getting late and you need to get to sleep.

Goodnight.

Hey.

Sorry... sorry...

Hand kisses...

I love you. Sleep tight.

I know it's on the written application,

what about the computer record?

I'm sure it is, Nickname, Sobriquet, one of those.

Are you sure you don't want me to do this search?

It won't take long on the computer.

I've already turned you into a professional babysitter.

I guess I'd better go on my own wild goose chases.

Besides, if I actually find something,

I need to get with Mitch right away, so if he calls,

let him know where I am, will you?

And, Ann... thanks.

That what friends are for.

Anyway, since I've still got your gold card,

I thought, perhaps, I might order your wedding dress tonight.

Oh, my... the wedding.

Here we go.

Ellen, what are you doing here?

You scared me to death.

If the old guy's right about the Captain Moonlight case,

it all happened about 30 years ago.

Our case files upstairs only go back to 1970.

Everything before that's downstairs.

So, Detective Downey...

I know why I'm here in the middle of the night.

Lisa was so upset by the hypnosis I...

was hoping I could avoid putting her through that again,

so I just kept thinking about this Buddy,

and what she said about not being fooled by his clothes.

You were thinking maybe he's a cop,

Yeah, I thought of that, too.

Only there ain't no Buddy in the department.

Yeah. I was checking the personnel files for nicknames.

Beat you to it. Sandy, Rusty, Lefty...

Well, I guess I'll have to let Dr. Azzaro continue.

We have to find out who this Buddy is.

I'm going to swing by Azzaro's office in the morning.

He put together that psychological profile of the killer

I'll talk to him about Lisa.

You know, if necessary, we can postpone the session.

Speaking of postponing...

Maybe we should postpone the wedding.

What do you say that for?

Well, you know how much I want us to be married,

but until the killer's found, this case is just going to follow us down the aisle.

Yeah...

Honey, we don't have to decide anything tonight, just...

let's just think about it, okay?

I wish you could come by my place...

it seems like forever since we've really been alone.

I wish I could, too...

I really need to be with Lisa.

Yeah.

What's up?

I heard from the Bureau.

They got a match on the print.

This can't be...

there's got to be some mistake.

Not according to the Bureau.

Father Aiken!

Dr. Azzaro?

You can feel it, too, can't you, Mommy?

He's coming.

Lisa, I want you to stay right here,

right here. I'll be right back.

Who is it?

Ellen, it's me.

Bob...

Ellen, is Mitch here?

No.

Lisa... where's your mommy?

She's at the front door.

Lisa, I'd like you to trust me.

Would you give me your hand?

Ellen, we need to...

Could you just give me one second...

I want to make sure Lisa knows everything's okay.

Lisa, it's okay, honey, it's just Bob, he...

Lisa...

Oh, honey, don't do this to me.

I told you stay here. Lisa?

Bob... Lisa's gone,

she was just in the kitchen and she's gone!

Take it easy! Take it easy!

Where's Mitch? Have you seen Mitch?

Mitch? No, Lisa! She was just here!

Listen to me! Ellen, listen to me, please!

We have evidence that Mitch is involved in the murder.

Don't be ridiculous!

I didn't want to tell you like this... but if he's got Lisa...

Mitch wouldn't hurt anyone...

Don't say that...

don't you dare say that...

Don't cry... it's all gonna work out. All right?

Please, you've got to help me.

Wait for me in the car. I'll be right there.

Ellen, you've got to keep it together for me. Okay?

Just... just find... find my daughter, just find Lisa...

I'll find her.

The front door's wide open.

What's wrong?

Where's Lisa?

I don't know. Why?

She's been taken, they think you have her.

They think you murdered the Fischer girl, too.

You think that?

Lisa's gone, Mitchell...

my baby's gone.

Ellen, I know who the killer is.

If she's missing, I know where to find her.

Now, please... let's go get her.

Roger that. St. Anne's Church. I need back-up

I saw Aiken leaving Azzaro's office.

That's far enough, Chief!

Listen, Bob, it's Father Aiken.

I said hold it!

Why don't you tell us what you did with Lisa?

I don't have her, Aiken does.

Mitch, please!

We're gonna do this by the book.

Bob, listen to him!

Father Aiken's the killer. He killed Dr. Azzaro and he has Lisa.

That's my Mom! Mommy!

Lisa, no!

Mommy!

Oh, Lisa! Lisa!

Honey, is Father Aiken in the house?

Yeah.

Chief, uh...

It's okay, Bob. Call for back up,

take Ellen and Lisa out of here.

Mitch!

I'm sorry. They said it was your print on the cuffs.

Father Aiken?

Don't make this hard.

Are you going to kill me, Chief?

Make it look like self-defense?

Put 'em on, Father.

It isn't me, Chief...

and if it isn't you...

this nightmare isn't over.

Put 'em on.

Okay, let's go home.

Ellen...

I'm sorry, what I said about Mitch,

Aiken must've set it all up.

It's okay, Bob.

Poor Father Aiken.

What kind of a devil crawled into your soul?

Buddy?

We were supposed to meet for breakfast.

When he didn't show, I went to his office.

Why didn't you call us when you found him?

Perry was convinced that Lisa knows the killer,

and the newspapers were saying it might be a cop.

You thought it was me?

I didn't know.

But when I found Perry, I was afraid that the killer might still be close by.

So I rushed out... and saw you.

I decided to warn Ellen, but when I got there, a patrol car was approaching.

I went around back and I took Lisa away,

but just to keep her safe until someone

could sort out the good guys from the bad guys.

Bob... No!

Mitch!

Bob shot him... And he has Lisa.

Bob has Lisa!

- Dispatch, this is Graham. - Go ahead, Chief.

We need paramedics at St. Anne's Church.

We have an officer down.

All units are to stop Lieutenant Marsden's car.

Marsden shot Hill, he has a hostage...

he's armed and dangerous.

We'll find her, I promise.

Take her home, Father.

Stop the car...

Stop the car.

Take me to the park.

Indulge me, Father... The Park.

I don't understand what you're doing.

Wait for me here. Please.

Patti! Buddy!

Buddy! Patti! Are you two in here?

Your father told you not to play in here anymore.

He's not my father!

Oh, my God! Patti!

Patti! What have you done to her?

She's not my mother! I warned her!

No, Buddy! No!

...Mother, I am the one who loves you.

She loved him.

She loved him. Not you.

You don't need them.

Gina!

You monster! You murderer!

Gina, are you okay?

You stay away from me, I'll kill you, too!

You crazy kid! Give me that hatchet.

What are you doing?

Stop it! Stop it, you're hurting me!

Back off the boy!

Get off me! Get off me!

I hate you!

I said leave the boy alone.

I hate you!

I'm so sorry for you...

Please help me find my Lisa.

Please help me...

Ellen... are you alright?

That house?

Lisa's in there.

Is that Marsden's house?

Buddy's house.

Ellen, I'll go over there. You call Mitch.

Bob won't listen to you. You get Mitch.

Lisa.

Mommy.

Bob... it's okay, Bob.

It's okay... just let Lisa go.

Just let Lisa go, Bob.

Lisa, I want you to go downstairs and wait for me there.

Okay... Bob, I can help you.

Please... Just let me help you.

It's not too late. It's okay.

Bob!

It's Mitch...

Don't you come up here, Chief.

If you do, they die.

I hear ya.

I hate him...

Why do you let him touch you?

You had everybody believing I was the killer. That's pretty clever.

Just a little handcuff switcheroo, that's all...

and I should have shot you at the church for resisting arrest,

then I'd be a hero.

So, what now?

You tell me how you want this to go.

I don't know how I want it to go!

I don't know...

I don't know.

Bob...

Bob, I know you.

You don't want to hurt anybody.

You've always been such a good...

I'm not your good little boy!

It should be my name on that invitation,

I should be marrying you.

Why did he have to come along and ruin everything?

And you...

You always take his side...

No, Buddy!

No, Buddy!

No, Buddy!

Mother, please, she started it! She's the one,

she started it.

Mommy! Mommy!

Shut up, Patti! Shut up! Shut up!

Careful...

Looking good, you two.

Here... let me fix your bow for you.

You look like a princess.

I'm so proud of you.

You look beautiful too, Mommy.

Thank you.

You know, things are gonna be little different for us

with a man in the house.

Not too different I hope.

I mean, between us.

Of course not. You and I share something very special now.

Do you think I'll have more visions?

I don't know, sweetheart.

But if you do, if we do,

then we'll talk about it.

Okay? And together we'll try to understand them.

Deal? "Deal."

Miss Downey, didn't you promise me a dance?

Yes, I did.

Mrs. Graham, would you care to dance?

Why, Mr. Graham, I thought you'd never ask.
