Samantha:
Not again.

Not ever again.

You've betrayed me
for the last time.

God, I was such a fool.

A woman in love.

No more.

I wouldn't bother to kill you

except I'm so looking forward
to every last ounce of blood

seeping out
of your wretched body.

If I believed in demons,
I'd damn your soul forever.

I'd put a stake
through your heart,

if only you had one,
you bastard.

(gun cocks)

I just wish
that I could do to you

what you did to me.

But this will have to do.

(gunshot)

I don't believe it.

( laughs )

- No?
- Stryker: No.

Audra could never
pull the trigger.

A woman discovering her lover

in bed with someone else?

You don't know much
about women--

or love...

or me.

Well, what do you think?

I mean, I know
it needs work.

The lighting will help.
Camera moves.

( Lights click )

Stryker?

( Footsteps )

( Whispers )
Stryker?

May I help you?

We're here to see
Dr. Pendleton.

Have you got
an appointment?

He's expecting us.

Your name?

Stryker.

There's a Mr. Stryker
and a lady to see Dr. Pendleton.

Woman on phone:
Do you know who that lady is?

That's Samantha Sherwood,
you know?

Yeah, I knew that.

Uh, the doctor
will see you right away.

It's the first room on the right,
just down the corridor.

Excuse me, Miss Sherwood.

May I have your autograph?

Some other time.

- Ah, Jonathan.
- Arthur.

- It's good to see you again.
- Good to see you.

Samantha, this is
Dr. Arthur Pendleton.

Hello, won't you sit down?

Well, now, everything
seems to be in order.

I spoke with Dr. Harrison

and he confirmed
what you told me, Jonathan.

So, we're all set?

Yes. I just need
a couple of signatures.

Now, if you'll sign here.

All right.

It's an honor to have you
here, Miss Sherwood.

I'm a longtime fan of yours.

I am looking forward
to seeing "Audra."

The film's been shelved,
temporarily.

I didn't realize.

Oh, I need one signature
from you, Miss Sherwood,

if you'd sign here.

That's it.

I must say, Miss Sherwood,
from Dr. Harrison's report,

I expected somewhat
more severe behavior from you,

but I see no reason
why you shouldn't be back

in front of the camera
in no time.

Stryker:
Those days are over, Doctor.

I only hope she faked--
Samantha!

Arthur:
Attendant! Get in here!

Let go of me!
Let go of me, I say!

Let go of me!
Let go of my hand!

Let go of me!

What are you--
No! Don't do this!

- ( Grunting )
- Go away!

No!
What are you doing?

Get off! Get--

Arthur:
Set her down over there.

Good.

- You all right?
- Yeah.

I see what you mean.

I think you should leave now.

Doctor, I'd like to have a moment
alone with her, if I may.

- Do you think that's wise?
- Well, look at her.

What harm could she do me
or anyone else like that?

All right.

We'll be outside
if you need us.

Come with me.

( laughing )

Audra herself
couldn't have done it better.

I think that poor doctor
was in shock.

- He's not the only one.
- Are you all right, darling?

You almost took my head off.

Well, the thought
did occur to me.

- What a performance.
- ( sighs ) Method acting.

- You have to believe it to do it.
- Well, I'm convinced.

Do you really think this
whole charade is necessary?

Well, if I'm going to play
a mad woman,

I've got to know
what it's really like.

Don't you think
this is going a bit too far?

( Sighs )
Call it research.

Oh. All for the sake of
a role in the film?

All for the sake of getting it right.
And you as my director,

you should applaud
my dedication.

You'd better go.

- I liked you like this.
- Oh, yes?

What sort of women
have you been seeing lately?

- None like you.
-( laughs)

(woman humming )

( sobbing )

(giggling )

( hysterical laughing )

Samantha,
you look beautiful.

Stick to directing, Jonathan.

You make a terrible actor.

I've missed you, too.

I believe you.

Why so defensive?

Oh come on, Jonathan.

Get enough psychiatric babble
in here as it is.

Dr. Pendleton said
that you're doing well.

Crazier than ever.

That's what you
wanted, isn't it?

( Screaming )

(whimpering )

( sobbing )

Alice, what a pretty dress.

Never seen you wear
that one before.

Oh, it's nothing.

Don't get too many chances
to wear it here.

It's pretty.

May we dance?

( Woman laughing )

I think we better dance.

( laughing )

( laughter echoing )

I like the look.
It's very convincing.

They believe it.

They believe everything.

Are they all so vacant?

The sane ones.

That's how you get by in here.

Well, you can drop
all of this in front of me.

Relax, save it for the film.

So sad.

- Stryker: What is?
- Even their laughter's sad.

Makes you cry.

( Screaming )

( screaming continues )

( humming )

( breathing heavily )

( bell rings )

( cheering )

Have you ever
wanted something so badly

you would do anything for it?

( Audience laughs )

Well, me,
I want to be an actress.

( laughing )

I wanted to be in pictures
so badly,

I screwed a guy
from Fotomat.

( laughing )

You know when they say
in and out in 24 hours?

He was in and out
in 24 seconds.

( laughing )

I am off to a casting session.

Audience:
Whoo!

Don't you wish you were
going to be there with me?

Now, kind of imagine this--

six actresses
going to the same house

to audition
for the same part.

Well, it sounds like a lot of fun
if you like blood baths.

I mean, I can see it now,
the actress saying to me,

"Excuse me, but I think that's
my knife in your back."

( cheering )

Monty:
Single audition for Stryker.

Look, who does he think he is?

I mean, God,
who does he think I am?

Relax, lady.
The man has strange ways,

but he gets it done.
Have you seen the script?

Brooke:
It's here somewhere.

- Did you read it?
- I don't read without an offer.

Monty:
Brooke. Jesus, Brooke.

I mean, if you wait
for an offer from Stryker,

we'll both starve to death.

Brooke: Fuck you.
You're the agent. Get me one.

It was all I could do to
get you the audition, dear.

What you do for me
is cash my checks.

Nice work
if you can get it, Monty.

Monty:
Just go see the man, okay?

God, I look like shit.

I should look so bad.

- Have you seen the trades?
- Brooke: The trades?

Yes, have you seen
Friday's "Variety," dear?

You know I never
read that crap.

Right.

Jonathan Stryker said
that there was only one actress

in the world who he'd
consider for Audra...

you, cuckoo head!

He said that about me?

Yes, of course he did.
Well, not in so many words,

but that was the general
gist of the thing.

Brooke: But I thought Samantha
Sherwood was playing Audra?

Samantha Sherwood?

Health problems.
You're the one.

Samantha:
That bastard.

I still can't believe
Stryker left me in the asylum.

If you hadn't sent "Variety,"
I never would have known

he was going ahead
without me anyway.

Woman:
I figured you'd be upset.

What are you going to do now?

Samantha: Whatever I have
to do to get it back.

Well, aren't you
in enough trouble already?

By now, they're bound to know
you've escaped.

Let them come after me.

What I have to do
won't take long.

Why don't you
just forget about it?

That's the one thing
I'll never do.

I didn't help you get out
to see you thrown back in again.

- Why did you?
- You're my friend.

I felt sorry for you.

Samantha: Stryker's the one
you should feel sorry for.

This time,
he's gone too far.

( Classical music playing )

( muffled screaming )

( gasping )

(crying )

( panting )

( laughs )

( kisses )

Wow, you didn't put up
much of a fight.

I didn't want a run
in my stocking.

( Panting )

( sighs )

This is getting
a little boring.

Well, there's always
the pizza boy.

( Chuckles )
No, too messy.

Besides, the pepperoni
always sticks to my ass.

That's the only way
to keep it warm.

- What about Pac-Man?
- What's that?

Well, a depressed spinster
buys a home video game.

She takes it that night.

The monster comes alive
and eats everything in its way.

Not tomorrow night,
he doesn't.

Well, he's easy,
how about Saturday?

Sunday. Keep the little
guy warmed up.

Why, you going somewhere?

Told you, this weekend
is Stryker's casting session.

What kind of
an audition is that?

The guy invites six women
up to his house and calls it work.

At least he's original.

I wish you wouldn't go.

I want the part.

More then you want my part?

( laughs )
Don't be silly.

Much more
than I want your part.

It'd be funny
if it weren't true.

I won't pass up this chance.

Might not be here
when you get back.

Well, then I just better give you
something to remember me by.

Peter: You mean, straight?
No games?

I'm just me,
and you're just you?

Reality.

That's different.

( Thunder crashing )

Radio announcer:
The cold weather should continue

with a good chance we'll see
some snow before it's over.

So, find somebody warm
and dig in.

Peter?

Peter?

Peter?

Come on, Peter,
no more games, huh?

(gasps)

(grunts)

( body thuds )

I first read the book
when I was a little girl.

It was so beautiful.

Do you know it?

Christie:
I am Audra.

I am Audra.

I'm not Audra.

I am Audra.

I am Audra.

I'm not Audra.

( Birds chirping )

Uh, that's $10.25, lady.

Well, it's here somewhere.

Maybe you can work it off.

I like older men, you know.

14? 15?

Hold this, please.

- Are you a writer?
- No, actress.

Yeah, I thought I'd seen you
on TV before.

Not a chance,
I would have remembered you.

Where you headed?

Jonathan Stryker's place.
You know it?

Yeah, just follow the road
up the hill.

Say, do you know
Miss Sherwood.

Samantha Sherwood?
I've heard of her.

God, she was great.
Still is, I guess.

Thanks.

Thanks.

- ( Dog barking )
- ( owl hooting )

Christie: Are we really
all here for the same part?

Brooke: He obviously doesn't
know what he wants.

What could we all
possibly have in common?

Sex?

( laughs )

I mean, we're all women.

( laughing )
You could have fooled me.

Aren't you Brooke Parsons?

Yes, I am.

The rest of us might
as well pack it in right now.

What are you doing here?

I'd kill for the part.

- I'd fuck for it.
-( laughing )

Don't much want
the part, huh?

- What would you do for it?
- Oh, I don't know.

Uh, tell a few jokes,
do a little song and dance,

sell my mother into slavery.

- Go down on him.
-( laughing )

Stryker:
That shouldn't be necessary,

but I'll keep it in mind.

One of you is missing.

I trust you'll keep us
amused, O'Connor.

( Clock chimes )

Parsons,

I've long admired your work.

Summers, hello.

DeMillo. I look forward
to hearing you perform,

DeMillo's a musician.

Burns, you bring your skates?

- Yes.
- Good.

This is Matthew.

And one of you is Audra.

Which one,
I don't yet know.

The next two days will be
unlike any you've ever known.

Not all of you will make it,

but I promise, each of you
will have learned something

about themselves
and their craft.

Samantha:
For all the good it will do you.

We missed you at dinner.

Ladies, may I present
Samantha Sherwood,

an actress I've known
for some time.

You may remember her work.

Samantha,
may I introduce--

No, don't bother, darling.

They all look alike to me.

Well, Stryker,

is this your idea
of a casting session?

Are you going to play,
Samantha?

You know I am.

( Owl hooting )

( Tara laughing )

( moans )

( laughing )

Hey!

It's like old times,
isn't it, Samantha?

You haven't changed
a thing, Stryker.

It's exactly as I left it.

Why are you here?

Why have you brought
those girls here?

Forget it, Samantha.

Perhaps once you were Audra.

Today...

But, I bought you
the rights to Audra.

For which I am grateful.

It was for us.

Not anymore.

Come on.

You know I like you.

Well...

Come on.

Just once.

Come on.

No, I don't.

Come on, okay?

Well...

okay-

Oh! Oh boy!

You give great head!
( chuckles )

Gross.

Wee bit past your bedtime,
isn't it, darling?

Oh. Has anyone
seen my skates?

I can't seem to find
my new pair.

The girl thinks
she's on holiday.

Oh no.
It's bad for your wind.

I'm still in training.

God knows why.

I get up every morning
at dawn to practice.

- Dawn?
- I bet you're fun on dates.

It makes me feel good.

Guess you got to want it
more than being loved.

Isn't that how you feel
about acting?

It depends on the love.

( laughs )

I suppose.

Well, I'll see you
in the morning.

You don't like her?

What's she doing here?
She's just a baby.

You nervous, too?

Me?

I'm scared to death.

But you've been
doing this for years.

I can remember
seeing you in...

I started early.

- It never gets easier.
- ( Tara laughing )

Well, there's always
the casting Jacuzzi.

Brooke:
What?

Patti:
It's like the casting couch,

only wetter.

Samantha:
I won't give up.

Stryker:
Spare me the melodrama.

Samantha:
If it wasn't for me,

you wouldn't even
have a project.

Stryker:
I'd find something.

Samantha: Oh, you're
a hypocrite and a liar.

You never intended
to get me out, did you?

Stryker: I did what I felt was best
for everyone involved.

Samantha:
Deserting me in an asylum?

Stryker: It was your idea
to commit yourself.

Samantha:
But not forever.

Stryker: I'm not convinced
you're cured yet.

Samantha: Oh, Stryker,
I was never insane.

Stryker: Perhaps I should call
the good doctor.

Let him know where you are.
I suspect he'd be most interested.

Samantha:
Well, I'll tell him the truth.

Stryker:
And I'll deny everything.

And you, my dear,
will move back

into Restview Manor
permanently.

Samantha:
I'll die first.

(gasps)

I was just passing by
and I heard voices.

Come in, my dear,
come in.

What you heard is a scene I wrote
many years ago for a play.

Samantha:
A very bad play.

A very bad play indeed.

Saved only by your talent
and beauty, Samantha.

A play?

You mean,
it was all a joke?

Well, let's call it
a performance.

But it sounded so real.

Tricks of the trade, my dear,
tricks of the trade.

Give the people
what they want to believe in.

It's part of our profession.

Christie: But how did you know
I was standing outside the door.

Stryker: Well, it seems
I've developed a sixth sense...

Brooke:
Has anyone seen Christie?

She's gone.

She left a note under
my door this morning.

Apparently,
she couldn't handle it.

I know how she feels.

How did she get out
with the road snowed in?

Maybe Matthew took her.

Well, I wonder
what changed her mind.

She was perfectly alright
last night.

And then there were four.

Christie must've had
a difficult night.

Did she?
I wouldn't know.

Brooke:
Wouldn't you?

Let's start with you, Parsons.
You're the veteran.

( Door opens )

No, I am.

This isn't really
necessary, Samantha.

( laughs )

Oh, but it is, obviously.

I know what you can do.

Then why are they here?

Can we talk about this later?

I don't want to talk.

I want to act.

All right.

Take center stage.

( Footsteps )

So, what the hell
are you doing here?

- I'm an actress.
- You're an actress.

There's an echo in here.

Your turn will come.

What makes you think
you can act?

- I know I can.
- Could?

- Can.
- So, act.

- What?
- Act for us.

I could do a prepared piece.

I've seen them all before.

You're such a perfect lady.

So beautiful, so refined.

What if you weren't so gifted?

How would you act then?

- I don't think--
- Good.

Don't think, just do it.

Make yourself ugly for us.

Can you?

What if your face
were different?

It could be one day,
you know.

Hideous, repulsive.

Put it on.

Put it on.

( Heavy breathing )

Now seduce me.

No words.

You can make sounds
if you like, but no lines.

No touching.
Just the mask.

Use your eyes,
your mouth...

and horrible beauty.

Make me love you.

Make me desire you.

You're beautiful remember?

You can't be denied.

This is a mask, too.

Are you satisfied?

All right, page 58,
the seduction scene.

( Gasps )
Medics!

You want me
to sit there, right?

Right.

( Sighs )

Ah, so...

I guess you're wondering
why I called you here, right?

( Sighs )
Well, Doc, you see,

it all started when my mother
locked me in the closet.

I was 21 at the time.

You want me
to wear the mask?

No, that's not necessary.

Too bad.
Might be an improvement.

Mm.

Oh, boy, this is what
you call bombing, right?

Are you on something?

Oh, God, don't I wish.

Oh, I'm on nerves, actually.

Sheer, raw nerves.
And if we don't get on with this,

I'm liable to break down
right before your very eyes.

Oh, I don't think
that's necessary either.

In fact, this whole session
isn't necessary.

Why?

- You're a very talented--
- Joke, right?

Good for a laugh
but nothing serious, is that it?

Oh, yeah, tell me something
I don't know.

What makes you think
you're right for Audra?

I'm as right as anybody else
you've got here.

I mean, God damn it,

you haven't spent
five minutes with me

and now you're telling me
I'm wrong for the part?

Why?
Because I haven't got a staple

through my navel
like that centerfold?

Because I wouldn't
pirouette into bed with you

and skate on your face?

I mean, what the hell
are you looking for anyway

and what do you want from me?

I mean, who the fuck
is Audra anyway?

You enjoying yourself?

Showing a little bit of Audra.

( Softly )
You bastard.

Where's the mask?

What do you mean?

What the hell are you up to,
Samantha?

What am I up to?

You bring five totally
different girls here

on a bogus casting session

for a part that was mine
in the first place,

and you ask me
what I am up to?

Brooke: No more.
I wouldn't bother to kill you,

except I'm so looking forward
to every last ounce of blood

seeping out
of your wretched body.

If I believed in demons,
I'd damn your soul forever.

( Water dripping )

I'd put a stake
through your heart

if only you had one,
you bastard.

( Taps )

( taps )

Oh! Oh.

( Sighs )

( piano music playing )

( nervous breathing )

No,no,no,no,no.

You're a man
seducing a woman.

Now forget your sex.

Enter into his imagination.
Become one with him.

Use your vulnerability.

( Water dripping )

( taps )

No!

Brooke?

(crying )
Christie.

What about her?

She's dead.

No, you've had a nightmare.

- No.
- No one is dead.

- But I saw her.
- You're imagining things.

Let me take you
to your room.

- No.
- Maybe I should.

Stryker:
We'll continue later.

- Come on.
- Please, no.

- There's nothing there.
- Please.

- Come on.
- ( crying )

- Come on.
- No, no, no, no!

- Come on!
- Please, no!

What the hell
is frightening you?

Christie.

- Christie.
- Don't, don't go in.

( Panting )

( shower curtain slides )

There's absolutely
nothing in there.

Go on, take a look.

Don't, please.

There, in there.

No!

(crying )

Come on.

Come on.
You're gonna lose it.

Get some rest.

How is she?

I don't know,
the door's shut.

Stryker's probably
trying to calm her down.

( laughs )
I'll bet.

Why would she say that?

Christie's dead?

She's been drinking a lot.

Yeah, but that doesn't explain
Amanda never arriving,

Matthew's disappeared.

I'm scared.

Maybe Brooke is smarter
than we think.

What do you mean?

Brooke is acting
just like Audra.

Well, yeah, I suppose,

but aren't you being a little...

- Cynical?
- Yeah.

Well, all's fair in love

and auditions.

( Door shuts )

Stryker's voice: It's like old times,
isn't it, Samantha?

( Samantha laughing )

Stryker's voice: Audra herself
couldn't have done it better.

Samantha's voice: I thought that
doctor was going to go into shock.

Stryker's voice: Are you going
to play, Samantha?

Samantha's voice: Why have you
brought those girls here?

Stryker's voice:
Forget it, Samantha.

Perhaps, once
you were Audra.

Today...

Is she anything like me?

Is she anything
like the others?

- Can't you tell me?

( Bottle clatters )

There's plenty more
in the refrigerator.

Audra would know how to
open a bottle of champagne.

She would have smashed
the bottle against the counter

and drank
from the broken neck.

How do you know'?

It's what I would do.

( Clicks tongue )

Too violent.

Audra was mad.

Did you know
that I was in an asylum?

I heard you were sick.

He thought so.

He left me there.

Stry k?

I had myself committed
to learn what Audra knew.

And what did you find out?

That an actress
must always be in control.

If you know what you're doing,
you're doing it wrong.

That's what Stryker
would have said.

We're the same.

He would have liked that.

He was fond of disciples.

Young, pretty ones.

Was?

Where is he?

Gone.

He left?

He's dead.

It wasn't supposed
to be like that, I--

It's all over now.

Go back.

Go back to the acting classes
and the dinner theater,

the chorus line.

Wait tables,
be somebody's secretary,

get married,
grow old together.

Forget about Audra.

Have I shocked you?

I'm not sorry.

- Tell me what you've done.
- I killed Stryker.

You want to call the police,
90 ahead.

I'm not going anywhere.

Don't worry, I won't hurt
any of your friends.

It's only me.

What do you mean?

They're dead, too.

What?

You?

Why?

( Screaming )

Have you ever wanted
something so badly,

you'd do anything for it?

Me?

I wanted to be an actress.

( Audience laughing )

Patti's voice: I mean, I wanted
to be in pictures so badly,

I screwed a guy
from Fotomat.

( Audience laughing )

You know when they say
in and out in 24 hours?

He was in and out
in 24 seconds.

( laughing )

Well, I know
what you're wondering.

The question is,
can she act?

( Echoing ) Right?
That's what you're wondering.

Can she make it?
I mean, can I act?

Just ask my boyfriend.

Better yet, ask my mother.
