SYD'S VOICE: David?

* When my fist clenches, crack it open *

* Before I use it and lose my cool *

* When I smile *

* Tell me some bad news *

* Before I laugh and act like a fool... *

FAROUK : * If I am evil *

: * Please give me a blanket *

* Keep me warm, let me wear your coat *

*

* No one knows what it's like *

* To be the bad man *

* To be the sad man, man, man, man, man... *

Uh, it's not much, it's, uh, it's a bit drippy sometimes,

But we're happy.

Cube sweet cube.

We've been here for about an hour.

No. What's the word?

Um... "soup"?

No, don't think it's soup.

We've been here longer than that.

Anyhoo...

Oh. What happened. Uh, well...

the world ended.

: Oh... sweetheart, don't be so dramatic.

-It didn't end. -It...

-It's still out there. -I'm exaggerating.

-Sunrise, sunset. -She had some...

-You know, everybody toiling away. -Toil, toil, toil.

-You know, good versus evil, all that sort of thing. -Mm-hmm.

We just...

well, we just don't...

-do that sort of thing anymore. -No.

We were just losing too much hair.

Time. Time.

It was time that we were losing,

uh, my beloved and I.

Mm.

-Groom and bride. -Hmm.

-Our bodies. What do we do with... -Our bodies.

...what do we do with our bodies?

They're... safe.

Um, somewhere.

They're hidden.

To tell you the location would be un... genius.

I-It's actually better without them.

-Mm. -You know, all those aches and pains and...

-aging. -Mm-hmm.

Not to mention various gases.

: Oh! Stop.

Oh, but it's so much more romantic now.

It's just...

well, every meal is a feast,

-every day a blessing. -Hmm.

"O dandelion, rich and haughty,

"King of village flowers!

"Each day is coronation time,

"You have no humble hours.

"I like to see you bring a troop

"To beat the bluegrass spears,

"To scorn the lawnmower

"that would be like fate's triumphant shears.

"Your yellow heads are cut away,

"It seems your reign is o'er.

"By noon you raise a sea of stars

More golden than before."

*

-We miss them, our friends. -We miss people. Of course.

-You know, our coworkers, -Mm-hmm.

like, um...

of course, uh, Glasses McLabcoat

and, uh, the...

-...the-the girl who would kick, -Oh.

-kick everyone, I miss her. -Yeah.

Oh, and Sydney. Don't forget Sydney.

-I had forgotten Sydney, yes. -Oh, it...

oh, what happened to her was so sad.

Very sad. Uh...

: What was it that happened to her again?

-The betrayal. -She was betrayed.

-After the fight with Farouk, -Mm.

when David...

-The Turn. -...turned.

The Turn. Uh...

there was a great battle with...

what's his face.

-Fa... Farouk. -Farouk. Farouk.

Uh, very soothing voice, I found. Very hypnotic.

Mmm.

I remember helping him.

Yes, I... I do, too.

Hmm.

Why did he turn again, this David person?

Because she showed him his future.

No.

-No, no, no, no.

SYD: We need to talk.

Sure.

Let me just finish killing this asshole.

You haven't had a lot of girlfriends, or you'd know--

when a woman wants to talk, you talk.

Could you maybe not point that thing at me?

You read the stories.

The women who marry serial killers and have six kids--

meanwhile, he's driving around Portland every night

with a van full of duct tape.

What?

They have to know.

Right? The wives, deep down.

At least a feeling, something's wrong.

I know, with you. Now.

Syd, I'm the good guy.

He's the monster.

No.

You're not that.

A good guy?

I thought so for a long time.

And then I saw the things you hide.

And it hit me.

What if you're not the hero?

What if you're just another villain?

The real villain.

Why? 'Cause...

because I didn't tell you the whole truth?

Because I

-He kills people. -You...

kill people.

Dozens at Division 3 last year.

No. That was him.

He had c-control.

The Son of Sam had a dog who gave him commands,

but every time he pulled the trigger, he pulled the trigger.

Seriously, why are you doing this?

I... know.

That's the thing.

I've seen your true face.

You hid it so well.

I love you.

Maybe.

But here's what matters more.

You lie to me.

You leave me.

-You keep secrets. -No.

You're doing it right now.

Unless maybe you don't know the difference-- truth, lie.

Maybe...

it's not even your fault.

He was in your head for so long, poisoning every thought.

Are you okay? Y-Your neck, that's a lot of blood.

It's not mine.

Listen to me, I know it's been hard...

I saw what you did to Oliver.

To the soldiers at Division 3.

I saw the look on your face.

You liked it.

No, I did what I had to.

You tortured Oliver.

You were beating him to death.

That's not a love story.

*

Wait, I...

I'm just, we're just, this is...

We're just doing what you said. You.

This is war. We're in a war.

What am I willing to do?

How far am I willing to go?

-I know I said that, but... -And that's all I'm doing.

That is all I am doing-- what you said.

No. No.

Baby, please.

What happened to "God loves the sinners best"?

: It won't work.

We're all powerless now.

Goddamn it, put the gun down and talk to me.

He's gonna... it's gonna wear off, and then he'll be--

you heard them-- unstoppable.

And, look, I'm sorry if you have abandonment issues.

And I was taken away by you, if we're being--

if we're laying all our cards out on the table,

so think about that. I didn't leave.

You kidnapped me from the future.

Did you ever ask why? Why would I do that?

Reach out from the future?

Why ask you to help Farouk find his body?

Because of the world-- the end of the world?

And who does that, end the world

Otherwise, why would I ask you to save him?

I don't know. You wouldn't, you didn't tell me.

-It's you.

You're the one who destroys everything, who ends the world.

No.

It never occurred to you

that you're the problem, not the solution.

-H-How could you even... -He showed me-- Farouk.

He went to see her, too-- me, in the future--

after you quit.

See, in her timeline, you killed Farouk,

and then there was no one powerful enough to stop you

-when you turned. -When I...

So she tricked you into helping him-- your enemy--

so that he could stop you

when you showed us who you really are.

I know.

It's cold to do that to someone that you used to love.

Used to?

Baby, please, I'm right here.

Your man. Don't you trust me?

Maybe I just trust myself more.

No. He's...

You're being tricked. Syd, please.

Syd, please.

You know me.

Yeah, I do.

And guess what? You're not the hero.

Then who is?

Me.

NARRATOR : A delusion starts like any other idea,

as an egg.

Identical on the outside,

perfectly formed.

From the shell, you'd never know anything was wrong.

A delusion starts

like any other idea, as an egg.

Identical on the outside, perfectly formed.

DIVAD: You see it now,

A delusion starts like any other idea...

Stop it. Stop it.

...as an egg.

NARRATOR: A delusion starts like any other idea,

as an egg.

You're the chicken, man.

She said I killed all those people...

-in the future. -You're delusional, baby.

No, I'm not. I'm not crazy. I'm not.

All the voices, the things I saw,

they said I was schizophrenic, but that was a...

They didn't know the truth, what I am, who I am.

I have powers, I'm powerful.

And then Syd came, and now I know.

-I know that I'm... What?

Normal?

No. Special.

A mutant. Omega.

-I'm the one who saves them.

-Everybody. I-I-I'm the hero.

I save love. You get it? Farouk, he's the devil.

What he did to me, what he does to everybody...

Why can't she see that?

-Saint David. -No, I'm not saying that.

I make mistakes, but...

I'm trying to help people.

A delusion starts like any other idea...

NARRATOR: ...starts like any other idea...

...as an egg.

You stop saying that.

You know what your delusion is?

Hold the phone. Is that...

Ooh, a dark horse candidate,

late entry to the race.

DIVAD: There. You see it?

The egg cracked just then,

and the delusion was born.

What are you talking about?

I'm a good person.

I deserve love.

I'm a good person.

I deserve love.

DIVAD: In order for a delusion to thrive,

other, more rational ideas must be destroyed.

I'm a good person.

So I deserve love.

No. That's not...

She saved me.

She showed me what I could be.

She made me good.

She made you good?

So, what, you weren't good before?

David Haller, the little piece of shit.

No, that's not... That's just... words.

You're-you're-you're trying to confuse me.

She said, "Junkies and masochists and hookers

"and those who have squandered everything

are the ring of brightest angels around heaven."

Oh, I remember.

God loves the sinners best.

NARRATOR : A delusion starts...

Do you really believe that?

Deep down

DVD: Don't listen to him.

There is no God.

Except you.

So the question is, do you love yourself?

No, that's not what I'm...

She said...

Stop doing that!

Making her right. All of them.

Caring about what they think.

They owe you everything.

This world.

A baby abandoned by his parents

with a demon stuck in his head.

Used, tricked, judged,

chucked in a Dumpster like fat from a clinic.

And they tell you it's you. That you're disgusting,

like somebody's used condom

that keeps getting stuck to people's shoes.

You want to know the truth?

They're terrified you're gonna wake up one day

and realize you're a god,

that you don't need any of them.

So they put you in a mental hospital.

DIVAD: You are not helping.

He is sick. I'm trying to...

DVD: No, they're sick.

She's sick.

This blonde thing who pretends to love us,

lowers our defenses, crawls inside our head.

She's the delusion, the parasite.

Stop it. That is not...

We are in love. That is real.

Our love is real.

Then why'd she just shoot you?

He's got a point.

Oh.

Syd, please. You know me.

Yeah, I do.

Shit.

And guess what? You're not the hero.

Take that...

-...mother...

Me.

LENNY: Oops.

MAN: Halt! Don't move, you're surrounded.

NARRATOR : A delusion starts like any other idea...

So, we know what we have to do.

Yes.

David, I need you to say it.

Yes.

I know what I have to do.

*

This is going to hurt.

What happened?

You had a bad dream.

Give me a minute. What are you gonna do with him?

VERMILLION 1: There will be a trial.

VERMILLION 3: You will be expected to testify.

Of course. Just be careful.

Remember, you can't believe anything he says.

It's, uh, straight to the electric chair for me, kid.

No, God has plans for you.

I don't believe in God.

I think you do.

You sure you're okay?

Yeah, yeah, just... long day.

Yeah, we fought a Minotaur.

You're pretty beaten up.

Come to the lab, let me do a CAT scan.

No, I just need some sleep.

I'll join you.

No, if-if you don't mind, I just need some sleep.

You have your own room.

Just for tonight.

It's right near ours.

I'll show you.

*

* Met a girl, fell in love *

* Glad as I can be *

* Met a girl, fell in love *

* Glad as I can be *

* But I think all the time *

* Is she true to me? *

* 'Cause there's nothing in this world *

* To stop me worrying *

* About that girl *

* I found out I was wrong *

* She was just two-timing *

* I found out I was wrong *

* She just kept on lying *

* Now she tries to tell the truth *

* And I just can't believe *

* 'Cause there's nothing in this world *

* To stop me worrying about that girl *

* 'Cause there's nothing in this world *

* To stop me worrying about that girl. *

DIVAD: We agreed.

This isn't the plan.

I can fix it.

DVD: Another delusion.

I just need time.

You saw Syd, she didn't remember.

A trick. You tricked her.

It can't last.

She's confused.

I just need... we just need time together

so she can remember what we had. Have.

No, we don't belong here, with them.

Anyway, Farouk's still alive.

I got to finish it.

Oh, now you're changing the story.

Would you just get out of my head?

I'm trying to think.

DAVID : Syd, my love...

MAN : Sixth floor purge in three, two, one...

How are you...?

It's a projection.

My body's in my room, but my mind's here.

We don't need the White Room anymore to do this.

: I love you so much.

I love you, too.

Syd...

Hmm?

Run away with me.

What?

We just go, right now, you and me.

Find a cabin by a lake somewhere.

Get a dog, some chickens.

Start a farm.

What about Farouk?

-After.

The moment he's dead, we go and never come back.

What?

Nothing.

You seem...

...different.

Maybe it's me.

After everything we've been through.

We're together now.

That's all that matters.

Don't you see? It's over.

It's over. We won.

We won.

*

*

DAVID: How's it feel,

knowing I beat you?

Knowing you lost?

Did I?

Well, you're in a cage, powerless,

about to be executed.

Oh, no,

they won't kill me.

I'm too...

Valuable.

They'll put me deep in a basement somewhere,

a secret weapon.

No, you're gonna die.

What makes you so sure?

Because if they don't kill you tomorrow,

I will.

Mm-hmm.

You tried once,

and yet here I am.

You know what I missed the most,

being locked in that grave for 30 years?

Coffee.

Be a dear and make me a cup.

No.

I give the orders now.

It wasn't an order.

It was a request.

The last request of a dying man.

Don't do that--

try to make me feel sympathy for you.

Why not?

Is it working?

Go to hell.

I'm leaving.

I just came to...

What

No.

To say good-bye.

Good-bye.

It's really sick,

what you're doing to her.

Don't you think?

Your love.

How do y...

The horse with the bridle

can still walk.

I saw you on the hill,

what you did to her--

suppressing her memory,

tricking her into loving you again.

I didn't trick her. She loves me.

She just f-forgot.

Oh, and you helped her remember

by controlling her.

What a kind man you are.

Shut up.

Trust me...

You can't make someone love you.

I've tried.

With who, your toadies?

No.

With you.

For 30 years, since you were a baby.

My baby.

Oh, please.

You make me sick.

You know that? Physically sick.

Every time I look at you, every time I hear your voice,

I want to throw up.

Good.

Remember that feeling,

because soon you will see it in her eyes

when she looks at you.

*

SYD : I love you, too.

You look ridiculous.

I'm reconstructing what happened on the hill

from available sensor data.

Did I tell you I cut off the head of a Minotaur?

Yes, you did. In graphic detail.

Do you know what its blood smelled like?

Oh, please, Kerry...

Okay, this is weird.

You remember those, like, beef bouillon cubes

-Stop.

The kind that you would pour boiling water onto?

Stop.

It didn't taste like that, though.

Oh, no.

KERRY: What?

It's treachery.

*

(faint, distorted whispers fading)

*

*

CARY: In the old days--

not so long ago--

madmen were packed onto boats

and shipped off to sea.

They were said to be searching for their lost sanity.

They called these boats...

the Ship of Fools.

*

And for a long time, we thought

we were the sane ones,

left behind on dry land.

But what if we're not?

What if so much time has passed

that we've forgotten the truth?

That we are, in fact,

the fools...

afloat on an endless sea,

pretending to be...

normal.

*

David.

Over here.

Just want to thank you.

You saved us all.

That's what I do. Where's Farouk?

They're bringing him in now.

Let me just... I have a few questions before we get started.

Let me just grab my pad.

: Yeah, okay.

Aah! Syd? What's...

Whoa!

Aw...

SYD: David, stop.

Please?

-SYD: I know that you don't want

to believe me,

-but we want to help you. -Let me out. Now.

VERMILLION 1: David Haller, your treachery has been discovered.

The inevitability of your future crimes.

VERMILLION 3: We are informed by Sydney Barrett

and the Shadow King of events that will transpire

in the days to come.

The remains of the orb that took you have been analyzed.

The probability that they have been created

decades from now by the male Loudermilk is 98%.

Th... This is a mistake.

Future crimes?

Things I might do? Are you...

Wha...?

Wait.

What's...

what's really going on?

-This is you.

Seeing you like this--

what you have become--

the sweet boy undone by revenge...

...it fills my heart with such sorrow.

Liar.

SYD: David, I know how hard this was for you.

What he did to you.

The life that you lived.

To think that you were sick for all those years,

and then to be told that it was a lie,

that you have these powers.

This monster in your head, everything Melanie said,

that you weren't mentally ill,

-when the truth is... -Syd.

...you're both.

DIVAD: I told you.

Why didn't you listen?

DVD: You see what she is?

What they are?

Small-minded animals,

terrified of what they can't comprehend.

No, shut up and let me think.

Just let me think.

Uh...

Something I do in the future?

That hasn't happened yet?

That isn't even me?

Don't you see? This is some kind of mass psychosis.

CARY: You're upset.

Your mind can't reconcile the person we see

with the person you think you are.

SYD: But we can help.

Medicine and therapy.

Back to the psych ward?

David the zombie.

Well, bullshit.

You want me gone so bad? Fine, I'm gone.

-No. -VERMILLION 1: You will allow treatment,

or we will be forced to terminate.

-DIVAD: Run.

Get out.

No. No.

I want to hear you say it. That you're gonna kill me

if I don't let them turn me into something different.

Something easy.

Something clean.

David.

You drugged me...

...and had sex with me.

: No, that's not...

I need you.

I am a good person.

I deserve love.

I am a good person.

I deserve love.

I deserve love.

I deserve...

-I'm a good person. -I deserve love.

*

(distorted whispers stop abruptly)

You know what? I'm done.

You had your chance.

-CARY: David... -SYD: No.

Cary...

The gas.

Cary?

The field should hold.

FEMALE VOICE : Secure the building.

Secure the building.

Secure the building.

-I'm going. Right now.

You coming?

Shit, yeah.

* Solution, hangin' with the raisin girls *

* She's gone to the other side... *

What about blondie?

-There ain't no blondie no more.

* And I go to sleepy time *

* This is not real, this is not real... *

What do we do now?

-* This is not real... * -Now we pray.

* This is not real, this is not real *

* This is not really happening *
