All language subtitles for Brainstorm (1983) Christopher Walken, Natalie Wood_track3_[eng]

LILLIAN: Just a little phase compensation.
MICHAEL: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I can see something.

It's parts of the grid, but it's still rotating.
It's not locking up.

HAL:
Maybe we all need a little break, Lillian.

LILLIAN:
Hal, you take a break.

Michael, we're almost there.

How's that?

MICHAEL: Yeah. It's getting better,
but it's still rotating. It's all scrambled.

LILLIAN: How's that?
MICHAEL: It's better.

Up the sync.

LILLIAN:
Plus 25. Better?

MICHAEL: I can sort of make out
more of the grid, but it's, ugh...

I don't know.

LILLIAN:
Maybe something's wrong with the grid.

Hal, kill the grid.
And, Gordy, take a look around the lab.

MICHAEL:
Oh, this is weird.

Try something else.

How's that?

It's an image of the lab, but it's rotating.
It's all out of phase.

LILLIAN:
I think I've got it.

Gordy, go back to the grid for a second.

A little more phase compensator.

Up the sync signal.

What do you see, angel?

Clockwise rotation.

It's still all scrambled.

LILLIAN:
Okay, just a little more.

Hold it a second. I think I got it.

MICHAEL:
Hey, there it is. You got it.

LILLIAN:
Okay, Hal, let's slate it.

Gordy, follow Hal around with the slate.

Hal, get the slate in there.

I got it.

Hold it one minute.

Okay. Slate it.

We've got speed.

Test, October the 11th,
10:41 p.m. Mark.

To the kitchen.

GORDY:
Good idea. Let's eat.

Lou, what do you got for me?

Here you go, Gordy. Everything you said.

HAL: Slating.
- It's all bad.

Hot and cold, sweet and sour...

...chewy and melt-in-your-mouth and--

Let's try something exotic.

LOU:
You name it, Gordy.

- A little steak.
- A little steak coming up.

GORDY:
Peanut butter.

Peanut butter.

Hot fudge.

Hot fudge?

GORDY: A few nuts.
- A few nuts.

GORDY:
And some marshmallow sauce.

- Heh-heh-heh.
- Marshmallow sauce.

And put a cherry on top.

Man, marshmallow and cherry on steak?

What in the world
have you been drinking?

HAL: What's he been smoking?
- Mmm, mmm.

[KEYBOARD PLAYING]

GORDY:
Hey.

Hey, spaceman,
welcome back to planet Earth.

GORDY: What you see before you is the
latest fashion in full-sensory gratification.

- Come on, give us a kiss.
- No.

GORDY: Come on.
- No. Come on, let's go back to work.

- Gordy, go on.
GORDY: For science.

Gordy, try to contain yourself.

- This is a test.
- Come on.

Andrea, give us a 90 dBf
in sine wave, please.

Okay, I'm ready.

Slate.

[KEYBOARD PLAYS NOTE]

Gordy, this is not on our itinerary.

GORDY:
Just a few seconds. I think I got an idea.

MAN:
Well, hi, Hal. How are you?

- What are you guys up to, anyway?
- Just wanna see my old buddy Lena.

[GIBBERING]

How are you, Lena, honey?

Aw.

Lena, I know what it's like
to be guinea pig.

Is her output on standard interface?

Regular plug.

I don't know...

Perfect mate for Dr. Brace.

I don't know if that's such a good idea.

Ha.

MAN: That's not so funny, Gordy.
GORDY: Come in, Lena.

[STATIC AND LENA GIBBERING]

[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE]

Lena.

[BEEPING]

LILLIAN:
Michael?

Michael?

Michael.

Michael!

What did you do?

Nothing. Just a little experiment
in animal behavior.

[SNARLING]

There's something wrong with you.
You know that?

You didn't like Lena.

LILLIAN: What happened?
MICHAEL: Nothing.

- So?
- I'm telling you, it works.

- The tests? Sound? Taste? Smell?
- Everything, everything.

- One hundred percent. In fact, better.
- What did you taste?

Steak, overdone. Right?

Peanut butter, hot fudge sauce,
slight orange flavor.

- Disgusting.
- Nuts?

Walnuts. I hate them.

That's it?

Marshmallow.

- Cherry on the top.
- That's it, man.

- How do you feel now?
- Like a glass of champagne.

- Get some glasses.
GORDY: All right.

Congratulations.

MICHAEL:
What's this?

One lousy beer.

I would like to make a toast.

To the one who never gives up.

Lillian Reynolds...

...E.E., M.D., Ph.D...

...B.M.T...

CHRIS:
Hi, Dad.

Hi, Mike.

You worked late.
Did you have a good day?

Hello, Barry.

MAN [IN DISTANCE]:
Let's go on to the last movement.

Success.

We made it.

ALEX:
Talented man, your husband.

Impossible at times, but talented.
What do you think? Can you handle it?

Yes, I think I can, uh...

I think I can get it down to size
and make it look attractive.

Maybe something like...

...stereo headphones.

Oh, I'm not worried about that.
I know you can.

It's Michael.

You're gonna have to work
very closely with him.

Is that a problem?

No.

- That won't be any problem.
- Good.

Not for me.

- Hal, I'm gonna kill you after this.
- You don't understand. It's part of my--

- It's slow and agonizing.
- Why are you upset?

- Part of my job.
- It's not part of your job.

I know what you wanted to do.

- Grease yourself with the boss.
HAL: I did not.

Why don't you wait and see
what he has to say?

Why don't you grow up?

Be careful.

I hate this junk.

ALEX:
Hello, Michael.

Good to see you.

ALEX: Lillian.
- Hello, Alex. How are you?

- Hi, Lillian.
- How are you?

Well, won't you sit down?

Well, congratulations.

For what?

Hal said you had a breakthrough.

Well, Hal's crazy.

Did you have a breakthrough or not?

Yes.

Alex, dear, it was just another test.
A little better, but still crude.

What's the big problem?

The superconductors have to be chilled
to 270 below to work.

The whole thing's too big and heavy.

Your hotshots, Evans and Wetmore,
failed on that one year after year.

Courtesy, Evans-Wetmore.

It's a superconducting chip.
No cooling needed.

When did they do this?

You need it, it's yours. Keep it quiet.

Data-processing division
will go through the roof...

...with the high-speed computer
applications of that.

Karen has expressed enthusiasm
to help us market it and package it.

Alex, I think you're moving too fast.

You haven't even seen it yet.

There's more to it
than just practical applications...

...and packaging.

Lillian...

...I know you can do it.

I know you can do it.

I'd like a demonstration.

I want you...

...to knock my socks off. Okay?

[CHUCKLES]

Good.

And thanks.

Don't lose that.

You did it again, Alex.

- Michael.
- Thank you.

Any problem working with, uh, Karen?

No. Not for me.

Thanks, Mike.

MICHAEL:
Chris.

Chris.

I told you to get out of the pool.
He pays no attention.

I'll get him, honey.

- Chris.
- Hurry up.

- Dr. Brace.
- Chris.

Dr. Brace, I'd like to introduce
Dr. Harris and Dr. Bock.

- Call me Ted.
- Ted.

- Janet.
MICHAEL: Hello.

You saw the house before.

Yeah, we're sold.
We just wanna get all the details.

- We signed all the papers today.
- Good.

- That's for you.
- Hey, Dad, is that it?

- That's what you wanted.
- All right. You got the right one.

Say thank you.

As you can see...

...this is a very special house.

I spent a lot of time to get it right.

Why don't you show them
the secret closet?

Good idea. Right this way.

The house is wonderful.
Ted loves all the special things you've done.

Do you like them?

KAREN:
No.

- It's theirs now.
- I know.

I can't stay here now.

Oh, well, that's okay. I can, uh,
take care of all the packing and stuff.

- You sure?
- Sure.

It's a lot to do.

Do you have cardboard boxes?

Yes, I have cardboard boxes.

I can take care of it all. Don't worry.

You could go live over at the center.

- Lillian's there.
- Mm-hm.

WOMAN [OVER RADIO]:
This is Flight Simulation Lab Control.

Sold your house yet?

- Yep.
WOMAN: All flight data...

I keep telling you
the rooms at the center are so cheap.

I know.

At 9:38 p.m., pilot Gordon Forbes is
performing a low-level simulated assault.

WOMAN [OVER PA]:
Range, 100 yards and closing.

Ninety-five.

Ninety. Simulated altitude, 600 feet.

Ground speed, 512 knots.

Assault range, 85.

Eighty.

HAL:
It's not worth it, Gordy. Don't do it.

Uh, Pilot Forbes, you're...

...off of the simulation.

Sweet target in sight.

Dr. Reynolds, Dr. Brace...

...your pilot has lost control.

GORDY: Okay?
- Okay, Gordy.

GORDY: Helmet's on?
- Go.

GORDY:
Contact. Okay, let's get in.

Right, down.

- Okay, then seat belts, right.
- Okay, Gordy. Hit it.

GORDY:
Brake, gas pedal. Let's go.

WOMAN 1:
Come on.

WOMAN 2:
Come on, Gordy.

MAN: Come on. Come on, let's go.
WOMAN 2: Come on.

GORDY: Yeah, I'm coming.
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Tallyho. Here we go.

- I'm gonna die. I'm freezing!
GORDY: You're gonna make history.

So it's chilly. It's gonna be great.

WOMAN 1:
Talk him out of this one. It's too cold.

[WOMEN SHRIEKING AND GIGGLING]

Come on. One more time for science.

It's getting ready to rain. Let's go home.

- Too cold. It's not even--
GORDY: Come on, come on.

One more time. Come on.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You didn't see me up there--

GORDY:
Come on.

[WOMEN SHRIEKING]

[CHUCKLING]

[LAUGHING]

KAREN: Nobody is gonna put
a thing like that on their head.

It's gotta be pared down
to the absolute essentials.

Just enough to house the sensors.
You know, it can't look intimidating.

What do I care what it looks like?

[BEEPING]

Put a chip here...

...another here...

...here...

...an op-amp, spread flat across.
That's all. Just do it.

- Put the rest of the stuff remote.

ALEX:
Oh, God.

That's remarkable.

A true one-of-a-kind
scientific breakthrough.

Oh, God, that's wonderful.
We'll have to tell the division heads.

And, Karen, maybe we can modify it
and simplify it even a little more?

- Oh, yes. That's already in the works.
ALEX: Good.

We'll need to make a demo tape.

We wanna show the potential
for travel and education and news.

- Can we do that in the conference room?
- We could pump it right through the phone.

ALEX:
Excellent. And thank you all.

You've blown communication
as we've known it right out of the water.

And I'm very proud of all of you.
You blew my socks off.

I think he likes it.

MAN:
All right.

[CHATTERING]

It's great.

Really?

- It's great.
- Good.

I'm glad you like it.

...we never worked together before.

I always tried to avoid that, you know?

- Thank you.

Well? So tell me about it.

- The damnedest thing I've ever felt.
- Yeah?

Knocked my socks off.

What was it like?

Like you were there.

Taste, smell, everything.

Incredible.

I even feel like I just ate.

What about, um, military application?

It's wide open.

Missile guidance? That kind of thing?

Jim, they're gonna be able to plug
right into the old noodle.

Hm.

[BAND PLAYING JAZZ MUSIC]

- This is for us?
- Just you, just me.

[CHATTERING]

Just for us.

MAN: Congratulations, you guys.
- Hello.

This is great.

I've never had so many people
wanna talk to me before in my life.

- That's because you're famous.
- Oh, God. You love it.

I do.

You're good-looking too.

Hey, get me a light, will you?

MICHAEL: Can I borrow that?
- Sure. Here.

You smoke too much.

I know I do. I know I do.

ALEX: How you doing?
LILLIAN: We're doing fine.

Listen, I got some people I want you
to meet upstairs in a few minutes, okay?

You're my stars. I wanna show you off.

I'll have Hal come back and get you.

Don't disappoint me.

A few people upstairs.
That's it. That's it.

Yeah. Mm-hm.

- Hi, Lillian.
LILLIAN: Hi. How are you?

- Hi.
- Good to see you. Hi.

Well, I'll see you.

KAREN:
Barry, I'd love some more white wine.

- Sure.
- Ah, yes, some drinks.

I'll call you tomorrow, Wendy.

- You look nice.
- Thank you.

Thanks.

Why do you still see him?

Because he's a perfectly wonderful,
thoughtful, uncreative guy.

[WOMAN SHOUTS INDISTINCTLY]

Congratulations, Michael.

You must be proud to be married
to such a brilliant man.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

He never spoke to me before.

It's good to see you
enjoying yourself so much.

For you.

I'll see you later, upstairs.

This is the result of teamwork,
gentlemen.

A group of brilliant, creative scientists
cocooned for 10 years in a laboratory...

...without outside intervention.

My job has been to protect
that environment.

That lab is sacred ground,
and with due respect to you all...

...I don't wanna muddy it with any boots
from outside, military or civilian.

That's all very well, Dr. Terson,
but we paid for that cocoon.

I think we have every right
to know what goes on.

I accept that responsibility, sir.

I'm not talking about
a military or civilian potential now.

I am talking about a breakthrough.

A communications breakthrough.

Words don't do it.

Pictures don't do it. This...

...might be the beginning.

But you've got to let my people breathe.

You've got to-- Ahem.

Well, here they are.

COLONEL:
Lillian, good to see you again.

I didn't see you downstairs, colonel.

Well, we all just got in,
and we can only stay a few minutes.

Captain Barty.

Mr. Zimbach.

- Colonel Easterbrook.
- How do you do?

- And Landon Marks.
- It's a real, real pleasure, Dr. Reynolds.

- Do I know you?
- Yes. Caltech, '56.

I wanted you all
to get to know each other.

Dr. Reynolds, of course.

Karen Brace.

- Dr. Brace.
- Very nice design.

- Thank you.
- And Mr. Abramson.

We're tremendously enthusiastic
about your recent breakthrough.

Yes, we've been working
on an array system ourselves...

...but with slow progress.

That's understandable.

COLONEL: Of course, we've been looking
at the application...

...from a different point of view.

What point of view is that, colonel?
Blowing people to kingdom come?

[LAUGHING]

Lillian, I think we can let
the colonel express his opinion.

Well...

...not everything in the military
is blowing people up.

We're interested in tapping
into higher brain functions.

Thoughts, emotions, that kind of thing.

Now I remember you.

We're working on that too.

Shut up, Michael.

You don't know
what's going on, do you?

Why don't we all have a drink?

- I don't get it.
LILLIAN: No, you don't.

Excuse me.

Lillian, I don't think Dr. Marks' presence
will be a detriment to the project.

Alex, I'm sorry.

No. I have to say no.

MARKS: Dr. Reynolds, for your own sake,
I'd like to help you complete your records.

A woman of your stature
can't just sloppily jot down--

Alex, please.
You promised you wouldn't do this.

He's a spy for the feds.

The feds, as you call it,
are here to protect the American public...

...from potentially dangerous research.

Alex, no. No.

I want you to understand, Dr. Reynolds,
that my function is not to be a spy.

I do have a certain expertise.

Listen, you were a hack at Stanford
and a hack at Bell.

- He's on your team.
- Why?

- He is on your team.
- No.

- Lillian, goddamn it, the man just wants--
- Alex.

Don't "goddamn" me, sweetheart.

- Just don't "goddamn" me.
- Come on.

And don't take my project.

This is my project.

And I don't want to see it end up
on some defense scrap heap...

...before we know what it's really about.

You have no idea.

Well...

I'm sorry.

[GROANING]

You're gonna spoil the whole thing.

- Oh, you're so stupid.
- I wanna tell you something.

I don't like the way you treat me.

You keep calling this thing "mine."

I've been next to you from the start.
It's mine too, so don't do that.

- Oh, you don't get it.
ALEX: Lillian?

- Keep him out. Keep him out.
- Go.

I have tried to keep those people
off your back, but you've--

What is it?

- Are you--?
- I'm fine. I'll be fine.

ALEX: You look bad.
- Oh, thanks.

ALEX:
You want a doctor?

I am a doctor.

What's going on? Are you crazy?

This is the ladies' room.
It's the ladies' room.

Can I help you?

It makes me sick when I lose my temper.

GORDY: Here she is.
- I don't want that thing, Gordy.

Hal, I can't believe
that you didn't know about it.

Everybody at the party played it.

Now, you don't wanna
get left behind, Hal.

Hey, this is hot.

[CHUCKLING]

It sure beats dirty magazines.

[CHUCKLING]

Yeah, thank you, Gordy.

Hey, enjoy yourself.

Yeah, sure.

- You're crazy. No!
GORDY: Come on, let's do it.

- Let's do it for science, baby.
- Science. Sure, I can trust you.

I'm not gonna do it.
Anybody can come in.

GORDY: Lillian won't be back tonight.
I promise. She won't be back.

- You promise?
GORDY: Come on, I promise.

Come on, babe.

All right.

Are these real?

I hope so.

This is it.

What do you call this?

We call it "the Hat."

What do you do with it?

Put it on your head.

Come on, Chris. Hands off.

What's it for?

With a thing like that, you could finish
the seventh grade in five minutes.

Okay. Start it up.

Not today.

Hmm.

What's that?

I don't know.

MICHAEL:
Scan sync's on.

LILLIAN: You got that?
- Mm-hm.

Interlock's open.

- Okay.
- Okay?

It's hot off the mold.

Take a look.

MICHAEL:
Looks great.

Sit, please.

KAREN:
"Looks great. Sit, please."

Now, just empty your head.

Empty my head?

Okay?

Relax.

Empty my head and relax.

Just lean back and forget everything.
It'll be okay.

That's good.

KAREN:
It's hot off the mold. Take a look.

Relax.

You can take the house, the kid, the car,
the whole goddamn thing.

I don't want anything. I'll live in a hotel.

What about my work?
I can't live like this, Karen.

Go.

Why don't you just go?

Take the house, take the car.

I'll go to a hotel.

I can't live like this, Karen.
You're strangling me.

What are you talking about,
you can't live like this?

Are you talking about the house?
I never wanted it.

- It was you.
- No, no. It's you.

That's not me you're looking at. It's you.

Can you describe what you were feeling?

I don't know.

I got mad.

At you.

What were you thinking?

- When you were recording my thoughts?
- Yeah.

I was thinking about my new design.

But he always ignores me, and it just...

...made me furious.

Feelings.

KAREN:
It's hot off the mold. Take a look.

- You're so selfish! You're arrogant!
- You're strangling me.

I wanna ride my bike. Big deal.

You take him. His pants are full.

You could put flowers all around it.
I don't know what you're so upset about.

[SINGING AND PEOPLE LAUGHING]

Aha.

KAREN:
You are a genius.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

I made that for you.

It's a gift.

What is it?

It's me.

MAN:
You may kiss the bride.

[CHEERING]

[SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]

MICHAEL:
That's where they flew.

KAREN:
But what made them come here?

It's the wind.

The wind?

It's constant here.

He took off from the bottom of that hill.

And the first flight...

...was less than the wingspan
of a modern jet.

And I wanna tell you something.
He was scared to death.

I'm crazy about you.

MICHAEL [WHISPERING]: It's a secret.
That's the girl I'm gonna marry.

[LAUGHING AND SHRIEKING]

[MICHAEL CLEARS THROAT]

We blew it, didn't we?

We sure did.

- I didn't get it.
- I didn't understand.

Nothing's changed.

You feel so good.

So do you.

[PIANO PLAYING]

I never thought I could do this.

[LAUGHING]

- Oh!
- It always does that.

- Try that.
- Oh.

They're beautiful.

Are you ready to take the plunge?

Sure.

KAREN [SINGING]: In this place
We're all together now

Figuring out and figuring out
Who's crazy

And afterwards, we go out
And have a nice coffee

And we smoke a cigarette
And make a dream

That everybody in the world
Will feel good

And they will be nervous no more

And these are the hopes and the dreams

Of beauty people like me

And the other people

It's so quiet.

I was afraid you didn't like me anymore.

Marry me.

I will.

CHRIS:
Mom?

- Hi, Dad.
KAREN: Good morning.

Hi, sport.

I knew you couldn't live without us.

- You want breakfast?
KAREN: Sure.

MICHAEL: French toast.
KAREN: Orange juice.

MICHAEL: Juice.
- All right.

KAREN:
Bacon.

[PHONE RINGING]

Yeah?

He's in the den.

KAREN: Are you all right?
WENDY: He's out of control.

KAREN:
But are you--? Are you okay?

WENDY:
Karen, he's been down there all night.

I thought he was reading
until I woke up this morning...

...and I found him down there twitching.

[GRUNTING]

[BEEPING]

Give it here.

Give it, Michael.

Please. Oh, God, please. Please.

Please.

Mike.

We'll keep this between us, okay?

MAN [OVER PA]:
Barometric pressure equalized.

Dr. Brace, you may enter the chamber.

Damn.

HAL:
Hey, you wanna jog a few laps?

No, not today, Hal.

I don't know where I'm getting
all this energy.

Well, you look good.

I'll tell you, Mike, boy,
I'm getting a whole new outlook on life.

I'm packing my bags
and leaving this place.

Why is that?

Hell, the good folks at the lab
are paying me disability leave...

...of indeterminate duration.

Is that good?

Hell, it's the best piece of luck I've had.

[BEEPING]

What is it?

Something happened to me.
It was more than just a sexual fantasy.

It was a-- It was a feeling I had.

I'm more than I was, Mike.

More.

MICHAEL [ON MONITOR]:
Thanks, Hal.

Okay, make a dupe tape
and a transcript of that right away.

You got it.

MARKS:
Ten degrees right.

Good.

Dr. Marks, Dr. Brace
and Hal Abramson are in the lab.

Go ahead.

[GRUNTING]

Maybe it's not a good idea, huh?

MICHAEL [ON MONITOR]:
Well, wait a minute.

I can rewire the output...

...right here.

Disconnect respiration, heart function...

...right here.

Give me that case.

MARKS: Frank, please, get me Bob Jenkins,
Alex Terson...

...Mr. Zimbach and Gordon Forbes
immediately.

Yes. This is it.

ALEX:
What is it?

What is it?

What, is he crazy?

We do have a unique opportunity here.

No, I can't authorize this. This is not
the research we're interested in.

I'll take full responsibility, Alex.
There might be something on it we can use.

The tap will be undetectable,
Gordon has the necessary experience.

This is on your back, Jim.

This is on your back.

Dr. Marks?

Um, Dr. Brace said something
about rewiring this output.

Something about respiration and--

I know what I'm doing, son.

[SHRIEKING AND GROANING]

[GRUNTING AND PANTING]

What's happening to him?

Shut it off, Landon.

Shut it off! Goddamn it, shut it off.

Jesus Christ.

[CHUCKLING]

- Ooh.
- Wow.

Bet you I can do that.

You can't do one more.

You can't do it. Not one more.
You can't do it.

Oh.

- Have a Coke.
- You have a Coke.

- Pow. Heh, heh, heh.
- Oh. God.

No, no. Five minutes, please.

It's important, come on.

One cup of coffee. Come on.

ALL:
Happy birthday, Lillian!

[CHEERING]

Come on. No, no. Come on.

Happy birthday, Lillian.

I gave you two years. I've been fighting
Washington for the last year.

It's over. TRIAD is over,
don't you understand, Lillian?

If it were up to me, I would give it to you.
But it's not up to me, babe.

Now I have to go tell Michael.

I've been with you. I've supported you.
I try to support you. What can I do?

You don't look so well.

Are things kind of tough for you?

- I'm just tired.
- Tired?

You know I work all the time.

- But that's the way it's always been.
- Yeah?

Do you know, I wonder sometimes
if there isn't something more than that?

More than work? Not to me.

Lillian, I have never broken my word
to you, but I'm sorry, it is dead.

- You don't keep your promises.
ALEX: I have never broken my word.

- I've never broken my word.
- We're so close.

Well, I guess I wanna believe
there is more.

Mike. Mike.

- TRIAD is dead.
- I never could.

It is dead.

[BEEPING]

Mike, I'm gonna shut it off.

- You're fine.
- Chlorpromazine?

It's okay.

I promise.

I'll never leave you.

You feel better now?

Michael.

I want these personal experiments
stopped.

You've abused your responsibility.

You've endangered your life.

I want a mind I can use.

I don't want some kind of vegetable.

The idea of playing that tape is sick.

- It makes my skin crawl.
- Where is it?

It's locked away.

Secure.

Alex, I told you, I wanna play it out.

You didn't hear me, did you?

Nobody plays that tape.

Ever.

MICHAEL: When I found her dead,
she was beautiful.

But why do you have to die to let go?

All my life I've had trouble with people.

I didn't need them.

Always had my own way.

Total confidence.

Now, because of this thing she left me,
this tape...

...I'm scared.

For the first time.

I'm so scared.

But the thing is, I like it. I want more.

Look.

You're married to the first man
in the history of the world...

...who has the chance
to take a scientific look...

...at the scariest thing
a person ever has to face.

I've gotta do it. I've gotta play it.
Play that tape.

And you'll have to help me.

But you have to promise me...

...that you'll never leave me again.

I'm not going anywhere.

Promise me.

It's a deal.

Look at those stars.

KAREN:
Let's go to bed.

MICHAEL:
Okay.

But if you put the terminal box in here...

...we're not gonna have any room
for processing.

MAN: Put it next to the output dial.
- I don't want to see it.

This is getting, you know...

- What are you doing?
- No--

Oh, Dr. Brace,
I'd like to introduce you to--

Stop that. What are you doing?

This is a valuable piece of equipment.

We felt it should be protected
from unauthorized use.

- Who is "we"?
- Well, the company.

I work here too. It's my lab.

Alex Terson has authorized me
to clean up after your sloppy work, Brace.

Your notes are impossible to decipher.

Yes, that's right.

Oh, we'll figure it out.

No, I don't think so.

Take your hands off that.

You can lock it up,
but you can't make it work.

Get off it. Go on, get off.

All of you, get out.

- You've no right to be here. It's my lab.
- No.

I'm sorry, Mike.

No.

MICHAEL:
Mind if I take a look?

MAN: You know this security pass
expires tomorrow?

Anyway, Dr. Brace,
you go through the door...

-...take a hard hat and a pair of goggles.
- Thanks.

MAN [OVER PA]: Dr. Brace,
please stand clear of the orange work zone.

Hi, Hal.

Michael. Gosh.

- Hey, it's good to see you.
- Good to see you.

You really had us worried, Mike.

So playing a lot of golf.

It's become a real whore to me.
I can't shake it.

- Everything okay?
- Let me tell you, it's great.

You know what I always wanted to be?

A scientist, just like you guys.

They locked me out, Hal.

- I have to get back into the computer.
- It's illegal.

Wouldn't want you to get in trouble, Hal.

Hell, I don't care.

Try "Brainstorm."

It's in the open project file.

Brainstorm.

- Thank you.
- I'll do what I can to help you, Mike.

Hey, Mike.

Don't be a stranger.

[BEEPING]

Mr. Jenkins, you better get in here.

Who do you think it is?

I have an idea.

Should I cut him off?

No, let's see how far he gets.

See if he's as good as he thinks he is.

[KEYBOARD CLICKING]

MICHAEL:
Flight data tape, adhesive tape.

What's File DXO-9?

He knows it's a code.

He's trying to get in.

- He's good.
- Ha, ha.

MAN:
He's in.

Son of a bitch.

Dream states?

Trauma.

Physical pain threshold.

Negative memory?

Psychotic episode?

Wait a minute.

What do you want me to do?

- Play it for him.
- Jimmy, load it up.

Hey, whatever you want.

In a few moments,
you will have an experience...

...which will seem completely real.

It will be the result
of your subconscious fears...

...transformed to
your conscious awareness.

Warning: This tape must not be played
by government personnel.

It can be extremely harmful
and result in severe trauma.

You have five seconds
to terminate this tape.

Five, four, three, two, one.

[SCREAMING]

Alex sold us out.

What?

MICAHEL:
Lillian and I are working away.

Alex turns the thing over to some covert
operation called Brainstorm Project.

He's turned my work into something bad.

Marks and a bunch of his people
are locking everything up.

The production line's been retooled
to make military versions of the helmet.

Hal just gave me a code name,
"Brainstorm"...

...which has been a secret project
in the computer for weeks.

It's bad, Karen.

I just can't believe it.

I never figured Alex could do
a thing like this.

I can't believe this.

They're using my invention
for brainwashing people.

I just found a tape
of some kind of psychotic episode.

If Marks is...

[CHRIS SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY]

You wanna see something?

I'll show you something.

Now you're gonna find out.

It's mine!

What are you doing?

Take that off. Chris?

Don't scare me.

Why don't you just take a seat here?

This boy has had
a serious psychotic break.

But he's gonna come out of it, isn't he?
I mean, he's gonna be okay?

Yeah, he'll come out of it,
and he'll be okay.

But you ought to go home and rest.

Because we're gonna have to watch him
for two days under sedation.

What do you think?

Nothing like this
is ever gonna happen again.

ALEX:
There they are. Hello, Karen. Michael.

Dr. Pederson, this is Dr. Graf
from the Psychiatric Institute.

What's the Brainstorm Project, Alex?

Brainstorm? I don't know.

You don't know? Have you seen my kid?

They can't stop him shaking.

Have you seen, Gordy?

- No.
- He's dead.

He monitored that tape, unauthorized.

You plugged him in.

I didn't plug him in, Michael.

- And I've locked that tape up--
- Nobody locks me out.

You need a rest, Michael.

We'll take care of your son.

- That tape is mine.
KAREN: Mike.

Nobody locks me out.

KAREN:
Mike, listen. He's right.

You've gotta get away for a few days.

Sure. Take a rest.

KAREN:
Come on.

Okay, okay. Take a rest.

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

MAN: How are you doing today?
- Fine, thanks.

The keys. These two cases.
The metal ones. Be careful.

Thanks a lot. Yeah.

- Little more java?
- I don't want your--

Knock it off, you guys.

Yeah, they're both here.

Okay, fine. Thank you.

I can't believe this. I cannot believe it.

- Just forget about it.
- Well, it bothers me.

- Just ignore them.
- Why should I ignore them?

We're on a vacation, that's why.

He's been doing that all day.

Just ignore him.

I hate this.

What are you staring at?

KAREN: Mike, forget it.
MICHAEL: What?

- Mike.
MICHAEL: Can I help you?

Hold your voice down.
Come on, don't make a scene.

Don't do it. Mike.

MICHAEL: Wait a minute.
I said, can I help you?

You wanna hear
what we're talking about?

Why don't you come sit at the table?
No, wait a minute, just stay right there.

- Mind your business.
KAREN: Don't push.

MICHAEL: Wanna know
what we're talking about? Come sit--

KAREN: Mike--
- Don't do that.

KAREN: You go to hell.
- You go to hell too.

KAREN:
You go to hell.

- You go to hell too.
- Don't push me.

You go to hell too.

- You go to hell.
- You go to hell.

MAN [ON PHONE]:
Yeah, they had a blowup.

And the woman left in a taxi, yeah.

JENKINS:
What do you think?

They had a blowup.

- Well, stay with Dr. Brace.
- Right.

[RINGS]

- Hello?
KAREN [ON PHONE]: Mike?

I'm glad you called.

I needed to get away and think.

MIKE [ON PHONE]:
Where are you?

KAREN:
I'm at Mother's.

I'm going to stay a few days.

I'll stay with you on the phone here.

Until we work this thing out.

I'm gonna lock the door, Karen.

Starts here at A-32,
goes up to plus five...

...and then stops here at JO-6.

Karen, what's done is done.

Let's start back at the beginning.

Figure out where we lost it.

I think we might still have a chance.

He's in.

I agree. Let's try.

We need to reach out.

Try to connect again.

I wish we didn't have
to do it over the phone.

Maybe this will be easier.

GUARD:
Hello?

You'll probably be glad this happened.

Hello?

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTING]

I'd like to go somewhere.

Maybe we could meet someplace...

...where we had a good time
together before.

You've got a deal, Mike.

Why don't you tell me a story?

You know, the way we used to.

KAREN:
A story about us.

- My work is my life.
- We're working for them. It's not up to me.

The girl fell head over heels,
madly in love...

...with a very tall, odd weirdo...

...and he was totally impossible.

- Can you turn it up?
KAREN: And he was also a genius.

Shut the damn things down.

We can't.
The whole operation's been bypassed.

Must be somebody
who knows the system.

GUARD:
All lines are dead.

Door is jammed. I'll go down to security.

Hold it right there.

Here's a transcript
of their conversation so far.

They're still at it.

- What's going on?
- The doors are stuck. Everything is locked.

[BEEPING]

- Bill! You gotta open up!
MAN: Hold on, hold on.

The whole place is up for grabs.
Someone bypassed the control system.

The production line is going crazy.

Cut Brace's phone. Arrest him.

Yes, sir.

Karen?

Karen?

They're onto us. That means
I can't get back to Mike anymore.

But I can still get to the company
on another line.

Whoa!

MAN 1:
Brace. Brace.

[WOMAN SHOUTS INDISTINCTLY]

MAN 2:
Hey!

Hey! Hey! Hey!

That guy's nuts.

[ALARM BEEPING]

ALEX:
What the hell is happening?

Somebody has snafued all the controls.

- That's the security code.
- Right.

- That's the control code.
- Okay.

- And that should do it.
- Okay.

- At that time, do that. Watches the same?
- Right.

Thanks, you guys.

- I love it.
- Take care.

MAN:
It won't open.

Here, move. Get out of the way.

Shit.

I bet they're making phone contact through
the lab computer. Have them run a trace.

Doug.

What?

Can you tie into the lab computer
and trace a call?

Master card-key won't work.

MAN [OVER RADIO]:
Well, break it down.

DOUG:
We're inside, Bob.

Get out of the way. I'm gonna try.

Here it is. Five--

I'm sorry, 919...

...555-3820.

Got him. Kill Devil Hills area,
on the Outer Banks.

Marty? Kill Devil Hills, on the double.
I'll get the exact location for you.

[SIGHS]

[MOANING]

Everyone stand by. We'll have him soon.

He got away from our guys.

MICHAEL:
Please don't touch it.

[CHUCKLING]

Cut it off. Cut it off, Landon.
Don't just stand there.

Cut it off. Cut the power off.

Okay, pull the floor.

Hurry up, come on.
Hurry it up. Hurry it up.

We'll have to go into the floor,
find the main electrical conduits...

0050 and break.

0050 and break.

[HAL LAUGHING]

We did it.

I think we got it.

DOUG: We just lost power in the lab, Bob.
- Goddamn him.

ALEX:
Let go, Landon.

Just let go.

MAN:
Get down.

I'm finished.

KAREN:
Oh, no!

No, no, don't!

[CRYING]

No, no.

No. No.

No.

No.

KAREN:
Don't go! Don't die!

Mike! Oh, God.

Mike!

Mike!

You promised me!

Mike!

No! Don't leave me!

Michael Anthony Brace!

[KAREN'S VOICE ECHOING]

Michael Anthony Brace!

We made a deal!

Get up! Michael!

Get up! Get up! Mike!

Get up!

Mike! Get up!

Mike.

[KAREN CRYING]

Mike.

MICHAEL:
We made it.

We made it.

Look at the stars.

[LAUGHING]

I love you.
