All language subtitles for Psi-Factor-S2E11 - Hell Week

These stories are inspired
by the actual case files

of the Office of Scientific
Investigation and Research.

I can't believe they were
out of intro to psychology.

Tragic.

I wanted to get a jump on things,
you know, read the first chapter.

Sean, it's our first week
on campus, away from home.

Can't we just have a little fun?

Hey, baby! Why don't you come on over
here and have a drink with some real men?

No, thanks.

You watch this.

Well, I guess we could
go to a movie tonight.

Or we could just stay in.

Hey!

You sure you don't want a beer?

We said no thanks.

Oh, come on. It'd be fun.

Just leave us alone.

Look, she told you to leave.

Stay out of it, wimp!
I'm talking to her.

So what was your name again?

Oh my...

What...

- What's happening ?
- I don't know.

Just run! Go!

If you were to observe an
object moving around untouched,

unaided, all by itself,
could it be a clever hoax,

random poltergeist activity,
or does someone present

possess the power of psychokinesis,

the ability to move objects
using the mind's will alone?

These were the questions the OSIR initially
had to consider in case file 416209.

I want it gone.
I just want it gone.

There's the fuse box.

There, you see?

We think the presence is
trying to communicate with us

in Morse code when it isn't
calling us on the phone.

I think we have to do a
complete environmental analysis,

air sampling, atmospheric evaluation,

the whole ball of wax.

I'm sorry, Miss Moore, but
this could take some time.

What else can you tell us
about these disturbances?

Well, the presence
interferes with the stereo

and television reception.

It changes the station and the volume,

and it adjusts the thermostat.

You mean you feel hot and
cold spots in the room?

No, no, it literally changes the control

up and down all the time.

It's been going on for weeks, and my
son hasn't slept a wink since it started.

Besides this ghostly invasion,
any other disruptions at home?

No. Well, my husband and I separated
about three months ago, but...

Hello?

The house is mine. Get out or die.

Strangers in the house.
Strangers in the house.

U.O.I.C.O.

Who are you ?

The house is mine. The house is mine.

No intruder shall be tolerated.

What do you want?

I want the house. Get out or die.

Get out or die!

Who are you?

OK, who is this?

It's Elvis, and he's in the building.

And you were going to run a
full environmental analysis?

Yep.

The kid was obviously in
need of some attention.

Hey, aren't we all?

85% of our cases turn out to be a hoax.

Comes with the job.

Ahoy, mateys, let's
batten down the hatches.

We set sail for Braddock
University in 15.

Here goes my Saturday night.

Thanks.

You OK, Pete?

Yeah, I...

I hate getting suckered.

Yeah, me too.

But at least we nailed them before we blew
a ton of resources on ghostbusting, huh?

Yeah.

Oh, hey, a courier dropped
this off for you at Central Lab.

You may have already
won a million dollars.

I'll open it later.

Split it with me. See you in the van.

Yeah.

So both our campus police
and physics departments

felt we should get an outside
scientific opinion on this.

The victim of the attack is an
engineering student, Jared McKagan.

He claims he was pinned against the wall
by this chain link fence late yesterday.

Dean Schueter, it's Hell Week.

Couldn't this be some
sort of initiation prank?

Well, that was my assumption, but this
is more than students having a little fun.

Take a look.

Whoa.

Well, somebody owes me
a very expensive watch.

It's stopped.

And mine too.

This entire area is hot.

Radiation?

Electromagnetic field,
especially this car.

Well, they've been
here since it happened.

None of them will start.

This entire car is like
one big fridge magnet.

Let's see who it belongs to.

Got a parking pass right here.

So you just left your car there?

I guess we should have
reported it, but we're scared.

It was so totally bizarre.

Are you saying your boyfriend
caused this to happen?

I don't know.

He says he didn't, but
something sure happened.

Rip-off!

He won't even talk about it.

We'll talk to him together, okay?

Yeah.

Okay.

Stupid machine.

Sean?

Sean?

Sean, wait!

Just hold on!

Look, I never jimmied
that stupid machine, okay?

I just started doing that.

And who's Sean?

What's going on? Why did she run away?

Who are you?

Who am I?

What are you talking about?

Why are you chasing me?

Why don't you just
mind your own business?

Hey, am I missing something here?

Why are you acting like this?

What's up with her?

So, your name's Alex Cleator.

Well, I noticed your ID says you're 21.

Convenient.

That's the drinking age.

Why do you pay for one of these, anyway?

You know, Sean, you really
shocked your girlfriend back there.

I don't have a girlfriend, OK?

And you don't know anything about what
happened to Jared McKeegan the other day, right?

Sure, I heard about it.

Everybody just figures a
creep got what he had coming.

Look, you people aren't cops.
You can't keep me here.

True.

But if you'd rather discuss it
with the cops, we can oblige.

We tested the area near
the vending machine.

It was highly magnetized,
just like the parking lot.

We know you're involved.

You did that ?

Maybe.

Impressed?

Maybe.

Not bad.

This power you claim to
have, can you control it?

Would you be willing to let
us run some tests with you?

No, thanks.

Ah, it's just a spoon bender.

A fake.

Aren't you, Sean?

Sorry. Alex, right?

Come on, this is a waste of time.

No!

I'm not a fake.

It happened about a week ago.

I can move things, metal things,
just by thinking about it.

I don't know how I do it.

Then let us help you find out.

Yeah, I just think I need a little
more time to think about it, that's all.

Yeah.

I'll tell you what, I'll let you know
by the end of the week, all right?

Thanks, thanks very much.

What did I tell you
about no personal calls?

You all set?

Yeah.

I'm going to start him on a Hasbro test.

If he's accessing some
kind of PK ability,

that should give us an indication
of how powerful it is.

Yeah, I saw the filing cabinet jump.

But remember, this kid
lied about his name.

Who knows what else
he's got up his sleeve?

I don't feel like getting
jerked around again either.

Is there, um, is there something
else we should be talking about?

Uh, no.

I better get rolling on this.

Can I smoke in here?

Only if you're on fire.

Okay.

This program is designed to verify
your psychokinetic abilities.

Now, what I'll ask you to do
is light up a certain color,

and you do so just by concentrating
on that color, alright?

Let's rock and roll.

Good.

Okay. Why don't you try
lighting up the blue section?

That's very good.

Can you, uh... Can you
light up one square?

That's really good.

Why don't you try a yellow one?

Pretty cool, huh?

Yeah.

How about a green one?

And how about you keep that helmet on?

No. How about this?

Bite me.

That's very good.

Just follow me this way.

Right through here.

Okay, okay. Come on, work with me here.

Hey, I'm not doing that.

Hey, everyone.

Look who I found.

This is Sean.

Identical boys happen to
come to the same university,

but they don't know each other exists ?

Studies show that twins separated
at birth often make similar choices.

They could choose the
same type of spouse.

They can even name
their pet the same name.

I don't know. This seems too convenient.

So you never knew Sean
had a twin brother?

No. I still can't even believe it.
I've known him since grade school.

Sean was adopted as well.

Just like Alex, but that's
where the similarities end,

according to Alex's high school records.

He was infamous for his
practical jokes, his pranks.

He also had a behavioral
problem at school.

But Sean, on the other
hand, was a model student.

And Sean has never done
this before, moved objects?

Only since we've arrived on campus.

And stuff just started to happen.

Like what happened in the
parking lot the other day?

It wasn't Sean's fault.

Lindsay, I know this is your area,

but couldn't their PK ability be somehow
triggered by their proximity to each other?

If there were no external forces
at work, it's quite possible.

So you're from around here?

No, I'm from the coast.
My dad's an aerospace engineer.

My old man's dead.

I am sorry.

It's no big loss, really, except
for the bar down on Water Street.

I guess we have a real father
out there somewhere, huh?

And a mother.

Hey, did you do that?

Sure.

Let me try.

Hey, if you guys are...

If you guys are up for it, I'd like to run you
through something a little more challenging.

You all set?

Yeah, just about.

You know, if this turns out to be
Sharon's psychokinetic ability,

it'd be invaluable.

You don't get a shot at something
like this every day, do you?

Yeah, you're telling me.

All right, you guys ready?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

All right, so what I want you to do

is that I want you to pick an object
and try and move it, all right?

Together ?

That's the idea.

All right, go for it.

Wow !
That's it?

You get this?

Oh, wow.

What now?

Try stepping back.

Keep the same distance apart.

That's it!

It looks like Sean's power is
stronger, it's more focused.

You wanna bet?

Alright, guys, go for it!

Hey! Who did that?

Is this for real?

Oops!

Just kind of lost it there.
Sorry.

You think he did it on purpose?

Why would he? We're brothers.

Yeah, but you don't know him.

He's your brother, but he's not.

I know.

It's just so strange.

I mean, finding out you have a
brother, that's one thing, but

it's like looking at
myself in the mirror.

Well, if it means anything,
I think you're cuter.

Hey, guys.

I hope I'm not barging in on anything.

Man, this is a nice place.

You got this all to yourself?

Yeah, still settling in.

I share a two-bedroom
basement with two other guys.

Got it backed up, Sean.

Takes me about three buses to
get here in the morning, but

it's home, you know?

Sean was just telling
me how things went today.

Listen, man, I'm really sorry.

I just... I seriously lost it out there.

No harm done.

What's wrong?

Sean?

What was that?

I don't know, but I felt something.

Felt what?

- Kind of like a shock.
- Kind of like a shock.

Are you okay?

Sure.

Well guys, I think it's time we have
a little toast to the family reunion.

We don't drink, actually.

Seriously?

Whatever.

What's our PSI Factor here?
What are we missing?

Well, the geological report indicates that
the entire area has a highly magnetic field.

It could be these guys are
tapped into the environment.

They may be acting like
a conductor between them.

That could explain why they
didn't exhibit any power

until they came within range
of each other here on campus.

What if these two have some
kind of psychokinetic bond

that grows stronger
when they're together?

Like the positive and
negative poles of a battery.

They need each other for
their PK powers to function.

Whoa, hang on Pete.
Don't jump the gun.

When's your biographical
report coming in?

This afternoon.

Great. That'll help.

Aren't you gonna get that?

I'll just let the service get it.

Do it again.

Now let me try.

Show off.

Hey, let's do this together.

Like before, you know?

Brother power?

Yeah, sure.

That was too weird.

I've got a class. You want to walk me?

Nah. I'll see you later, okay?

Oh. Okay. Bye.

Wish I had some action like that.

You're one lucky man.

Beer?

There's a lot of studies
out there that prove

the twins have this remarkable
telepathic ability with one another.

Funny thing about these
two, though, is that

their personalities seem
to be almost opposite.

That's the nature
versus nurture question.

They were raised in entirely
different situations.

Sean had every advantage growing up.

Alex had to work a lot
harder to get where he is.

What about the birth parents?

Father, unidentified. Single
mother, we haven't located her yet.

She turned them over to Family Services for
adoption when they were just two months old.

Single woman, raising twins.
You may have been overwhelmed.

That may not be the only factor.

She specifically requested that they
be adopted into separate families.

Well, it's usually considered
for the benefit of the children

that the siblings remain together.

That's why the mother's
request was considered so odd.

But respected.

In the mother's own words, the boys
need to be kept as far apart as possible.

I got a class real early tomorrow.
You think I can crash at your place?

Sure, I guess.

It's so strange, Alex.

I always felt like there
was someone else out there.

I know.

You know how it is when you're adopted

and you think your parents are
these big movie stars or something?

And one day they're going to
come and just take you home

or send you a big wad
of cash or something?

I never really thought about it.

I guess you never had to.

You know, I don't know
what it is with you, man.

You've got bucks, you've got a hot woman,
and you don't seem to care about any of it.

What do you get off on, anyway?

I don't need to get off.

I just get by, that's all.

You sure we're related?

Look in the mirror.

You wanna have some fun?

Like what?

Take a look at this.

You sure it was Alex?

He bragged to half the class.

He's trying to make some
sort of a name for himself,

the merry prankster.

It's beyond me how he
pulled this one off.

Oh, boy.

Thanks for calling us.
W'ell, uh, we'll definitely talk to him.

Yeah, you do that.

The next incident like
this, and I'll suspend him.

These readings are too strong
for this to be Alex's work.

It's not Sean's style.

Could they be teaming up?

Yeah, they could be.

The level's this high,
things could get dangerous.

Maybe these two guys shouldn't
be anywhere near each other.

Guess you won't see anything like
this at Wellington University.

I haven't accepted the offer yet.

How'd you find out?

I had a friend there.

Called when he read OSIR on your resume.

Asked if I ever worked with
some guy called Peter Axon.

I told him you were a drooling
moron who couldn't walk upstairs

and chew gum at the same time.

Thank you very much.

Thought they'd be lucky to have
you, if that's what you want.

I don't know what I want.

How are you planning on telling me?

Calling me from the airport?

Sending me flowers and
a dear Prager letter?

Look, I don't know.
They made me a flattering offer.

I just wanted to kick
it around, that's all.

By myself.

Keep this posted.

Yeah.

Hey!

What's your hurry?

Leave me alone.

You tell that freak boyfriend of yours,
next time I see him, he's roadkill.

You hear me?

I hear you. Let go!

Somebody call an ambulance!

Jarred has a punctured abdomen.

It was touch and go for a while,
but he's been moved out of ICU.

He's lucky to be alive.

Lee said that neither Sean nor
Alex were around when it happened.

But the electromagnetic signal
coming from that drain pipe

is consistent with all the other events,
and it's getting stronger.

The twins have to be involved somehow.

You sure about that?

Well, no, I can't be
until I do more tests,

and I'll need both of them to cooperate.

No.

After this stunt, we're
keeping them apart.

Well, how do you expect to
find out what's happening

unless you do a controlled study?

I said no.

You wouldn't put phosphorus
and oxygen together, would you?

I would, under controlled circumstances.

How do you expect me to understand the
reaction of putting the two of them together

if you won't let me do a study?

Not after this.
I'm not prepared to risk it.

Oh, fine.

Hi, Peter.

Ever worked with a Dr. Daniel Pressman?

Elsinger says he's top flight.

Peter hasn't made his
decision yet, has he?

No, but he's got a wandering eye,

and I don't want to be left
scrambling for a replacement.

Have you talked to him about it?

Maybe if you let him
know you want him to stay,

he'd change his mind.

You do want him to stay.

Of course.

Do you think he knows that?

I'll talk to him.

Obi-Wan.

Hey, bro, how's it going?

How did you get in here?

Pretty simple.

Hey, that's my shirt.

Yeah, it's just my size, too.

Go figure.

Those science drones, they
came by here looking for me.

So I had to blow them off.

Told them I was you.

What are you doing
here in the first place?

You said I could crash
here tonight, remember?

Yeah, that was before you hurt that guy.

He's going to be OK.

You know, this is a pretty
cool place you got here, man.

Not only can you afford
to live on campus,

but you got your own pad, too.

Pretty important for those intimate
moments with your girlfriend.

Hey, and beyond that,
you've got most of the power.

So I guess somebody
somewhere likes you better.

But together, Sean, we are so much more.

Nobody can mess with us.

We've got the power, man.

So why don't we use it?

There's nothing that we can't do.

You can feel it, can't you, Sean?

The way it moves back
and forth in between us?

Feels pretty good, doesn't it?

Feel it, Sean.

Stop it, OK?

Had enough.

This is the first time in my life
that I have a chance to be somebody.

So why are you going to
take that away from me?

Look, I'm not going to do it, OK?

Lock the door on your way out.

I know you don't need a key.

You want me to take that apart?

Can you guarantee you'll be around
to put it back together again?

Look, um...

You know how much we'd
all miss you around here.

If you decide to take the gig, that is.

Really?

Well, for about a day.

Seriously, I know we
see things differently,

but if we agreed 100% of the time,

one of us wouldn't be necessary, right?

It's not the job, you know that.

Wellington University's
a lot closer to home,

and to tell you the truth,

I never really thought I'd want
to spend more time with my family,

but there you go.

Oh, boy, yeah.

Boy, oh, boy, oh, boy, yeah.

Sometimes I...

I get so tired of living
out of a suitcase, you know?

Being in a different
place week after week.

I mean, you must feel that.

No, never.

Of course I do.

I spend a lot of time wondering
what my daughter's up to,

what color her hair is this week.

Yeah.

But then not knowing, that's
what I love about this.

Always something new
around every corner.

You really see yourself walking
freshman through E equals MC squared.

Within a week, you'd be itching
to get back in the field.

Maybe.

Maybe not.

Sean?

I'm so glad you're here.

It was so awful what happened to Jarred.

Hold me.

I've run a comparison on all the
electromagnetic data from the events so far.

See, their power is definitely
increasing by over 40%.

The brain scan is still
depressingly normal.

You know, a little over a year ago,

I had a very generous offer from the CDC
to head up the Tropical Disease Division.

Word travels fast.
So tell me, why didn't you take it?

Well, as I recall, we were in
the upper Volta at the time,

chasing after a dinosaur
in the Congo rainforest.

I remember that.

That was the, uh... the combato, right?
It turned out to be a mutant hippo.

Anyway, you know, the offer came and went.
I never gave it a second thought.

Look, this new position is
going to be very rewarding.

But, uh, will it be enough?

You okay?

I wish I'd known.

We could've been more,
you know, prepared.

I'm sorry. I wasn't planning on this.

Don't be sorry.

There's nothing to be sorry about.

Where are you going?

I got a class.

No, you don't. It's Wednesday.

Oh, yeah. Right.

Oh, my God.

Alex?

Okay, you got me.

But I didn't hear you complaining, so...

I guess it couldn't have been that bad.

You son of a bitch!
Get out of here! I hate you!

You came on to me, you remember?

What was I supposed to do?

Get out!

It's Alex. He's the one who
hurt Jarred with that drain pipe.

I'm afraid what he might do next.

We're gonna find Alex and talk to him.

We don't understand how the power
interacts between the two of you yet,

but we're very eager to find out.

Look, I don't care about any of that, okay?
I just want Alex out of my life.

Okay, it'll probably be safer
if you let us approach him first.

I told you to get out!
Just leave me alone!

Lee, it's me. It's Sean.

I thought he was you.

I didn't know. Oh, God, Sean.

You mean you and Alex...

Oh, no, Lee.

When did this happen?

Just now.

Sean, wait!

It's okay. I'll stay with her.

Sean!

It's okay.

It's gonna be okay.

Alex !

Uh-oh, here comes trouble.

What did you do to her?

She wanted it, man.
What could I do?

Give me the power, Sean!

Look, you don't even want it, so
why don't you just give it to me?

No!

Break it up!

Sean, you okay?

When he was holding me down, I could feel
this energy passing back and forth between us.

Then all at once I started
to get colder and colder,

like the life was draining
out of me and into him.

You suffered a trauma
similar to an electric shock.

I want you to rest. You understand?

Okay.

Go easy on him.

Sean what did you feel during the fight?

I thought I was gonna die.

But I was afraid to fight back.

Afraid I might kill Alex.

Maybe we're more alike than I thought.

There's good and bad in all of us, Sean.

You two may look alike, but
you're still individuals.

Let's talk about Lee.

I don't want to talk about her.

Why not?

Lee won't have anything
to do with me now.

Not after what he did to her.

When she looks at me, she'll see him.

We're arranging counselling for Lee.

But what she needs from you right
now is your complete support.

She's blaming herself

and she needs to realise that she
is not responsible for what happened.

And neither are you.

Can you find her for me?

Yeah, I can.

Lee, Lee, Lee.

What do you want?

We need to talk.

Let's go for a little drive.

Anything from the MRI?

Well, tests on Sean
came back totally blank.

How is that possible?

It could be the magnetic
force that he generates

is greater than that produced
by the magnetic scan of the MRI.

So how do we help this kid?

Well, I was considering a CAT scan.

Good.

Any sign of Alex?

Not yet.

But Ray's coordinating a
search with campus security.

Now, what I saw looked like an
exchange of energy between the twins.

Any theories?

Well, there are some
forms of animal life

that transmit electrical
impulses through nerve endings.

Like electric heels.

Yeah, yeah, that's the idea.

But unless I can get some physiological
data on both of them, I'm still guessing.

I thought Axon was compiling that.

Don't be afraid, Sean.

What do you want from me?

You know what I want.

But first, you, me, and
your little girlfriend

have to work some things out.

Someplace a little more private.

Just leave us alone.

I'm not going anywhere, Sean.

For the first time in
my life, I feel special.

I can actually mean something.

But I need your help.

And you are gonna help me.

I'm getting worried.
I can't find Lee anywhere.

I'll let campus security
know to look for her.

Right.

Oh, terrific.

When would he leave?

Call Ray, we can s-

Oh no !

I know where that is.

Come on.

Damn it.
Why are you doing this?

Hey, you've had every break in the book.

So now it's my turn.

For what?
To hurt people?

Nobody has to get hurt.

Not if you cooperate.

Yeah?

You tell that to Lee.

Look, I'll give you the power, OK?
Just let her out of the car.

No.

Give it to me first.

But, Alex...

Look, I'm through talking about it, OK?

I want the power.
Now give it all to me.

No!

No!

- Stop it! You're killing me!
- I don't care anymore!

Why, Alex? You made me do this!
This is your fault!

Let it go, Sean!

Let me have all of
it or she's gonna die!

Take it!

I never wanted it in the first place!

Take it!

Take it all.

You're not my brother.

No N o!

No !

Alex !

It's over.

Case Manager's Final Log.

Alex Cleator died as a
result of his injuries.

His death was ruled as accidental.

An autopsy failed to reveal any cause of
the strange power he shared with his twin.

Sean recovered fully and has had no further
experience of psychokinetic abilities.

Whatever caused the power to
manifest seems to have died with Alex.

Prager, out.

Congratulations. You have twins.

What defines an
individual's personality?

Are we born genetically pre-programmed or are
we entirely shaped by the world we live in?

As identical twins, Alex and Sean
shared many of the same abilities,

but together they were greater
than the sum of their parts.

How each of them chose to
use their paranormal ability

is what made them truly unique.

I'm Dan Aykroyd for PSI Factor.
