The space shuttle Inspire,

returns to earth tonight

after 10 days in orbit,

bearing a very

unlikely passenger,

Jacob Worthy,

known for both

his bestselling nonfiction

and his audacious personality,

became the first author

in space on this mission,

It will be interesting to see

how his outsider's take

on the experience

meshes with the image

conscious space program,

JAKE:

As the first author in space,

this the part where I am

supposed to get

all gooey-eyed

and humble,

Look out

at that big blue marble

and wax on and on and wonder

about secure blessings

of liberty for

generations to come,

Sorry, folks,

But, the account

of this experience

isn't going to talk about

the tranquil sea of space

or the courage of those

landed-god pioneers

who explored the unknown,

It's going to be

the unvarnished truth,

MAN: Shuttle Inspire,

this is Mission Control,

Once you initiate,

the burden will last for

two minutes and 50 seconds,

Entry interface will

occur 28 minutes later,

Now, that's three minutes

before communication blackout,

Roger that, Jim,

Tell Cathy to get

those ham hocks simmering,

I got a mean craving

for some red beans and rice,

Commander McCarty

smells home cooking,

I smell a seven figure

advance,

Unfortunately,

I may have to shatter

some illusions

to get there,

It's a dirty job,

but a hero's work

is never done,

Jake, I need you to

prepare for re-entry,

Time to buckle up,

Whoopie,

And the Inspire

is now in its final descent

over the Kennedy Space Center

in Florida

All right,

we got way too much soup,

So we'll go to

instrument approach,

tactical error and

application online,

(BEEPING)

Look, your glide slope's

just, uh, too steep,

Pitch it up +8 degrees theta,

Runway zone

should be appearing

on the top of your combiner,

Prepare to deploy

landing gear,

Roger that,

Air speed 300 knots,

altitude 250 feet,

-(ALARM BEEPING)

-Control, I am reading

hydraulic system one

pressure not available

to release,

Uplock hook,

Deploy pyrotechnic initiator,

Repeat,

Deploy pyrotechnic initiator,

-(ALARM BLARING)

-Yeah, it won't deploy, Jim,

It's not budging,

Too steep, Inspire,

-(ALARM BLARING)

-Okay, okay, uh, ,,

Ears booming, ,,

But, your nose is

under the horizon,

Come on, pull up!

Strut failure,

Sparks everywhere,

(INDISTINCT CHATTER ON RADIO)

(GASPS)

(SIRENS WALING)

CONTROL VOICE:

There is nothing wrong

with your television,

Do not attempt

to adjust the picture,

We are now controlling

the transmission,

We control the horizontal

and the vertical,

We can deluge you

with a thousand channels

or expand one single image

to crystal clarity

and beyond,

We can shape your vision

to anything our imagination

can conceive,

For the next hour,

we will control

all that you see and hear,

You are about to experience

the awe and mystery

which reaches from

the deepest inner mind

to The Outer Limits,

CONTROL VOICE: It is said

that those who survive

a brush with death,

see the world anew,

But what if

that second chance,

became a second life?

Welcome back, Jake,

How you feeling?

Like hell, (GRUNTS)

Where am I?

It's our debriefing center,

outside Seattle,

What happened?

The shuttle exploded

when it attempted to land,

Exploded?

That's right,

What about the crew?

I, ,, I'm afraid we lost them,

Everyone?

Afraid so,

How did I get out alive?

We're still trying to

sort it out,

You walked out of that fire

but other than being

covered with soot,

there were no broken bones,

no lacerations,

no injuries of any kind

as far as we can tell,

You collapsed shortly after

walking away from

the wreckage

and you've pretty much been

asleep for the last 48 hours,

Nothing short of

a miracle, Jake,

Don't talk to me

about miracles,

What the hell happened?

AGENT: Well, I am afraid

we don't have

an easy explanation,

That's why you're here,

So as soon as you're up to it,

we would like to begin

the debriefing,

De-briefing? What?

Why am I in isolation?

What am I, quarantined?

No, it's just

a routine precaution,

Nothing showing up

on our preliminary tests,

Well, I have got to

get to New York, okay?

My editor is expecting pages,

Well, nobody is going anywhere

until Dr, Bader here certifies

that you're safe to go home,

So in the meantime,

we'd like to see about

getting some answers,

JAKE: It's been days,

When do I get out of here?

AGENT: Just, uh,

try to relax, Mr, Worthy,

Oh, yeah!

Yeah, right, I'll relax,

What are you people? Crazy?

I don't even have a phone,

Even a prisoner gets

a phone call,

-So, Jake,

-(DR, BADER SIGHS)

Let's talk about the mission,

Do you remember

an electrical disturbance

that happened

on the second day out?

What?

The blackout,

The instruments went haywire

for a couple of minutes, ,,

We lost contact

with the shuttle,

(CHUCKLES) Oh, right,

Yeah, the uh, ,,

Commander said

something about hitting

an electromagnetic field,

but I am the last one

you ask about whatever

the hell that was,

Well, at this point,

I am afraid you're

the only person

that we can ask,

(GROANING)

God!

Are you all right, Mr, Worthy?

JAKE: Yeah,

It's these migraines,

I feel like somebody's

lobbing grenades around

inside my skull,

The nurse will give you

something for it

as soon as

the debriefing is over,

This electrical disturbance

what does that,

what does that have to do with

whatever happened to me?

We think that there may have

been far more serious damage

to the shuttle systems

than we had first anticipated,

The navigational controls,

the landing gear,

both malfunctioned

on re-entry,

Well, that sure as hell

doesn't explain

how I survived a blast

like that, does it?

No, it doesn't,

The NSA is expecting me

to report on your

preliminary findings by 2200,

What am I

supposed to tell them?

A man walks through

an inferno hot enough

to vaporize exotic alloys

with nothing but dehydration

and crushing migraines

to show for it,

I cannot offer you

a scientific explanation

because there is

no scientific explanation,

Couldn't something

have happened in

the explosion itself,

something that shielded him

from its fury?

What are you not telling me?

Jake Worthy was given

an exhaustive physical

before the mission,

just like the rest

of the crew,

Dr, Bader can tell you

there was nothing abnormal

about the man

that we sent up there,

And now?

There were second

and third degree burns

that were observed

by the emergency workers

on the ambulance,

By the time they got to

the ER, they were gone,

The skin was virtually

unblemished,

DR, BADER:

I'm reluctant to speculate,

but somehow his body's

natural healing properties

have, uh, accelerated,

Gentlemen,

I don't need to tell you

the potential significance

of all this,

If you would just allow us

to complete our test

before making any report to

the National Security agency,

I can stall them a day,

Maybe two,

But eventually, this is

going to the president,

Ah, Mr, Worthy has a visitor,

It's his ex-wife,

I don't think

we want him talking

to the public just yet,

We can make it clear to Jake

what the perimeters are

and we can monitor

his conversation,

I suggest it would lessen

press speculation

if we allow some

limited contact with

the outside world,

I'll need approval,

(DOOR OPENS)

ALEXIS: Hello, Jake,

Well, I'll be damned,

How are you, Alexis?

The question is how are you?

Well, I have always been

able to walk on water,

I guess, I am just, ,,

,, , expanding my repertoire,

I wasn't even going to

watch the landing,

I was afraid that you might

say something to the press

you'd regret,

Moi?

It was so terrifying,

I sat there

and came apart at the seams,

It was like losing Timothy

all over again,

Yeah, well,

at least this time God picked

on someone his own size,

It wasn't always like this,

When Timothy was alive

and I could drag you away

from your work,

Yeah, well,

it was my work that

put food on our the table,

Do you remember?

I never said you weren't

a good provider,

No, just a cold unfeeling

son of a bitch, right?

I don't believe that

for a minute,

Do you want you know

what I really think?

I think that if you had

let yourself grieve

after we lost Timmy, ,,

I'll tell you what, Alexis,

if I want advice

on how and when to grieve,

I'll give you a call, okay?

I guess I'll go now,

What is it, Jake?

Headache,

I'll get over it,

(GROANING)

You said you were going to

teach me how to ride,

(INDISTINCT VOICES)

TIMOTHY: You said you were

gonna teach me how to ride,

(LAUGHING)

(INDISTINCT VOICE)

(VOICE ECHOING)

Dad, Daddy!

(PANTING)

(EXHALES)

(COMPUTER BEEPING)

(JAKE SIGHS)

Good morning, Jake,

Huh?

I said good morning,

Yesterday you were ravenous,

today you haven't touched

your breakfast,

That's not true,

I had a banana,

And an entire shaker of salt,

No ill effects?

No,

What about the headaches?

They're getting worse,

I hope you got

something stronger,

I'll talk to Dr, Bader,

Okay,

Well, that was, uh,

quite a creative spurt

last night,

I was delirious,

My fingers ran away with me,

So you have no idea

what significance

those symbols

or those numbers had?

No, Why, do you?

No, it's just that

you were very prolific,

It was over 100 pages,

And, uh, ,,

What about the drawings?

I was doodling

and that's what came out,

When do I get out

of this fish bowl?

Listen, Jake, I was wondering

if you would be

up to seeing someone?

Is this where you roll out

the head shrinkers?

It's Commander McCarty's

widow,

Great,

Mr, Worthy,

they don't want me

to stay very long,

I just wondered

during the mission,

if Phil said anything,

anything personal

about me or Grady?

To be honest with you,

I, uh, ,,

I spent most of my time

on my journals,

I was busy writing,

So I don't think

your husband and I

exchanged more than

half a dozen words,

I see,

Oh,

I don't know maybe if I, ,,

Yeah, he did say something

about, um, ,,

,, , your son and what

a handsome boy he was,

And he got his looks from you,

You didn't have to make it up,

Excuse me?

Grady was adopted,

Phil never would have

said that,

It didn't have to be much,

I just wanted something small,

something true, something, ,,

,, , that I could hang on to,

I didn't ask to be

the one who survived,

Well, they tell me that

it all happened so fast

that he didn't feel any pain,

I am grateful for that anyway,

My son,

our son,

he wants to go up there

like Phil,

That's what kids do,

they dream,

(VOICE BREAKING)

I don't know what to tell him,

I couldn't bear to lose him,

Could you imagine

what that would be like?

Yes, I think I can,

As soon as I finish this EEG,

I'll give you an injection

for those migraines,

I was gonna suggest

the guillotine,

(KEYBOARD CLACKING)

You always dress like this

for inoculations?

The word around here is

you're pretty special

I could have told you that,

(MACHINE BEEPING)

What is it?

Nothing,

It's just your brain activity,

I don't think I have seen

the needles jump

like this before,

Better than being brain dead,

I suppose,

(CHUCKLES SLOWLY)

The lump,

I'm sorry?

The small lump

on your left breast,

It's a fluid filled cyst,

It's completely benign,

-(GASPS)

-(OBJECTS CLATTER)

Years ago,

the French government

funded research

into what was known as

the Pre Aura project,

It applied

electromagnetic energy

into the terminal tumors

of laboratory animals,

Now, by altering

the electrical currents

within cells,

there were able to

time reverse them back

to an earlier state,

to a healthy state,

Of course, that explains

his cravings for salt,

And potassium rich food

like bananas,

All of it increases

the conductivity of his blood,

Something occurred during that

brief electromagnetic event

on the second day

of the Inspire's mission,

Something that, that altered

Jake Worthy's body,

You're telling us that his

body uses electrical currents

to heal itself?

Reduced to its essence, yes,

And it may have altered

more than his body,

My nurse tells me

that he diagnosed

a medical condition in her

that she only just confirmed

with her doctors,

(GROANING)

(TIMOTHY

SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)

I meant to teach you

to ride a bike,

I swear to God,

DISTORTED VOICE: Daddy,

(ALL LAUGHING)

TIMOTHY: Daddy!

Daddy! Daddy!

(VOICE ECHOING) Daddy!

(MUFFLED) Hey!

Let me out of here!

You hear me?

I can't take it!

I can't take it anymore!

(ALARM BLARING)

I can't see him,

-(JAKE GRUNTING)

-(GROANING)

(ELECTRICITY CRACKLING)

You're telling me he survived

a hit of 50, 000 volts?

If there is one thing

we learnt, General,

is that Jake Worthy

appears to be impervious

to physical injury,

(DOOR OPENS)

What about his state of mind?

I'm afraid we can't

be definitive, General,

We know that

if he tries to harm himself

he won't be successful,

for reasons that are

all too obvious,

More to the point,

is he a threat to the others?

Ask the security guard

he knocked unconscious,

(EXHALES)

I warned them about using

civilians on these flights,

Who knows what he'll say

to the press,

Can you imagine

the panic he will create?

(SIGHS)

Now what do we know

for certain about

this phenomenon

you have documented?

That it defies all reason,

The real problem is that

without further tests

we could never

fully understand

how he could be altered

so profoundly,

I want Worthy found

and brought back,

I'll authorize whatever

manpower is required,

Just get the man back,

(DOOR OPENS)

JAKE: Sorry to bother you,

Mrs, McCarty,

Mr, Worthy?

My God, what happened?

May I?

No one can know I am here,

so I'd appreciate it

if you didn't call USAS,

CATHARINE: What's this about?

I'm scaring you,

I don't mean to,

No, it, ,,

-They must be looking for you,

-This will just take a minute,

Um, ,,

I feel like our conversation

wasn't finished,

To be honest I was, uh, ,,

I was completely insensitive,

I had no right to

patronize you,

You asked an honest question

and you deserve

an honest answer,

Um, ,,

You're husband

told me a story,

The night before the crash,

I put it out of my mind

because I was jealous,

I was angry,

Really, I was angry

that he had a wife and

child to come home to

and all I had

was an impatient editor

and a bunch of

so called friends,

who loathe me as much as

I loathe them,

You don't have to do this,

He told me about

the night that, ,,

,, , he told you he was

picked for the assignment

and how happy

you pretended to be,

even though he knew

you were dying inside,

And how brave you were,

And how giving,

And that he was

one lucky son, ,,

S-O-B,

(CHUCKLES)

That's all,

Thank you, Mr, Worthy,

You're gonna need

some clothes,

You can go through

Phil's things,

You'd probably need

some cash, ,,

Your husband was a good man,

Catharine,

Let's see about those clothes,

Audrey, damn it!

Will you stop worrying about

how tough things are for you?

I spent the night

on the street, Remember?

Audrey, listen to me,

You're my editor,

Listen to me!

If I can get all of this

down on paper,

I am going to

blow the roof off of

the publishing industry,

I am telling you, ,,

No, I can't, ,, (SIGHS)

I can't come to New York,

Audrey!

They're all over the place,

They're after me!

That's what I'm trying, ,,

Audrey, listen to me,

Something is happening to me,

something I don't understand,

I don't know,

It's like, uh, ,,

It's like I'm being watched,

it's like I'm being observed,

I don't know,

Like I'm being judged, ,,

,, , from the inside, I don't, , ,

Look, I can't explain it,

I know it sounds crazy,

but it's happening!

You gotta trust me on this,

No, no, no, no, no,

I will call you,

LANDLORD:

Rent's paid by the week,

We don't allow any loud music,

or pets,

or any kind of carrying on,

I just need

a quiet place to work,

What was it you said you did?

I'm a writer,

Okay,

Uh, sheets and towels,

pillow cases, uh,

kitchen things,

You got pretty much everything

you need,

(GROANS)

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine,

(CLOCK TICKING)

What am I doing?

Why am I doing this?

Why did I call

Catharine McCarty?

(SIGHS)

Why the hell were

my wisdom teeth

extracted without anesthetic?

I'd apologize to someone

for being callous,

That's who I am for God sake!

It's always been that way,

Jake Worthy against

the unworthy,

the undeserving, the unwashed,

(BREATHS DEEPLY)

What's happening to me?

It's unreal, it's a fever,

it's a sickness,

It's a nightmare,

That's what it is,

And I am going to wake up,

God help me if I don't,

(SIREN BLARING

IN THE DISTANCE)

(JAKE GRUNTS)

(GROANING)

(GRUNTS)

It's not the technology

that makes these things go,

it's not the gizmos,

It's the humans,

(ELECTRICITY CRACKLING)

(MACHINES BEEPING)

What the hell is going on?

(CHOKING)

(ECHOING) The instruments

are going crazy!

(MACHINES BEEPING)

(BEEPING STOPS)

Yeah,

A-Okay,

(CHOKING)

(GRUNTS)

(COUGHS)

(DOOR OPENS)

JAKE: Here,

Let me help you with that,

I'm telling you, Audrey,

This thing,

it's making me crazy,

I see a kid on a bicycle,

I turn into

a blubbering idiot,

I'm helping old ladies

with their groceries,

Does that sound like

the man you know?

(SIGHS)

I can't control my thoughts,

I can't control my actions,

It's turning me inside out,

(SIGHS)

(MAN SHOUTING)

Hey, stop!

MAN: Jake! Jake!

Just me your money!

(WHIMPERING) Don't hurt me!

(GRUNTING)

Please help me,

It's all right,

We are going to get you help,

You're going to make it,

You hear me?

How did you do that?

We got a lead on our man,

He made a series of calls

to his literary agent

from a phone booth in

downtown Seattle,

Check in every hotel

and flophouse in the vicinity,

General, we've finished

running, uh, computer programs

on the electromagnetic event

on day two of the mission,

-And?

-Well, it didn't show up

on the instruments,

but apparently

there was a corruption

of the programing's

of the onboard computers,

and once the landing routine

kicked in,

the air began to compound,

What was it?

Some kind of virus?

I don't know,

I wouldn't begin

to characterize it,

But it just overwhelmed

the computers,

And there's

ample evidence

it may have infected

more than

the shuttle's systems,

Dr, Bader believes

the transformation

of Worthy's body chemistry

may have happened

at the very same time,

(SIGHS)

(BEEPING AND WHIRRING)

(CRACKLING)

(GROANING)

ALIEN: It's all right, Jake!

The pain will subside,

(CONTINUES GROANING)

What are you?

A stranger,

Much like you,

(COMPUTER BEEPING)

(CHOKING)

You saved my life,

I was only returning a favor,

I don't understand,

Our ship collided

with a meteor,

Our bodies were reduced

to electrical impulses,

The others faded into

the ether one by one

and I was the last survivor,

I had only hours left

when I found your craft,

So you entered my body?

I had no choice,

I would have died

without a suitable host,

Why me?

There were six others

aboard that craft,

It could have been anyone,

You were the nearest vessel,

(CHUCKLES)

I'm going off to deep end,

This isn't happening,

You're a figment

of my imagination,

I didn't know beings like you

were possible either,

So, you entered my body,

you merged with me,

so you could stay alive,

That's right,

But you are not in me now,

No,

So, you don't need me anymore?

The only way I could

leave your body

was through

the machine we built,

We have a machine,

So, you don't need me anymore,

I'll die, Jake,

If it was the machine,

I could only exist outside

of you for a short while,

I'm not even sure how long

I'll live inside of you,

I find, I'm growing

weaker by the hour,

Wait a minute,

You're the reason this, ,,

This ship crashed,

That electrical disturbance

they were talking about,

that was you!

I never intended it,

You have to believe me,

Because of you,

six people are dead and, ,,

You almost took me as well,

And in weighs upon me

more than you could know,

but together we

can make amends,

You've already

witnessed a miracle, ,,

I hate what you've done,

do you understand?

I want my life back,

I wanna be the person I was

before you invaded me,

A man who used to care

about no one but himself,

I've seen your thoughts,

The anger, the loneliness,

So, that's it,

This guilt, these, ,,

These pangs of conscience,

that was made all up, ,,

That's you,

Is that what you believe?

You have no right

to take me over!

I'm bleeding,

(GLASS SHATTERS)

-Your powers of healing

will disappear,

-Good,

I don't wanna be

some freak of nature,

You lost your child

to cancer, didn't you?

I don't wanna talk about it,

You think about it

all the time,

How do you know

what I think about?

You don't know

anything about me!

Perhaps you're right,

Perhaps I've given you

the benefit of the doubt,

Why couldn't I have had

the power when it mattered,

when I could

save my son's life?

We've both experienced

loss, Jake,

My mate,

my child,

both died when that

meteor hit our ship,

It was a grief I wish no one

else ever has to know,

(MACHINE RATTLING)

(YELLS)

It's overloading! (GROANS)

God Almighty!

-How's he doing?

-He's heavily sedated,

Anything turn up on

the brain scan?

Yes, and it's quite troubling,

Now, you'll notice

the most of the synaptic array

reads normal,

That's the blue shades here,

here, here,

And the reddish color?

It's my conclusion

Mr, Worthy's neurological

engrams

have been hijacked by this,

this creature you described,

You're telling us what,

that half his brain

has been taken over

by this other being?

Oh, it's more than that,

I believe it's continuing to

encroach in every key region,

from the autonomic to

motor and the sensory,

to higher cognitive function,

At the rate displacement

is occurring,

I would suggest that

72 hours from now,

there'll be no more

Jake Worthy,

I can assure you

we're not gonna allow

things to get that far,

What are you proposing

that we do, General?

Find some answers, damn it!

Our best experts have

been unable to come up

with a reason

for this machine's existence,

We have no idea

what the agenda

of this creature is!

What we do know,

is that it's made

the body it's occupied

virtually indestructible!

That's all the more

reason to study its

incredible properties,

Curing life-threatening

diseases, treating injuries,

Don't forget this

eerie little sprite of yours

caused a crash that bought

down a billion dollar shuttle

and killed most of its crew,

We have no idea what's

gonna happen once it

gets up ahead of steam,

Worthy will have to be

sacrificed so that we

can eliminate that threat,

We don't have a whole hell

of a lot of choice, do we?

We gotta find a way to reduce

the creature in him to dust,

My God! We devote

billions in resources,

countless lifetimes

of manpower,

in order to look for

intelligent life

outside our planet,

and what do we do

the minute we find it?

We order its destruction!

Look, the MEG gives

a pretty good map

of the affected areas,

Now, based on that,

I believe that we can

selectively target

the invading brain activity

with pinpoint radiation,

Now, if my theory is cracked,

we just might be able

to rid him of the invader

without irreparable harm,

Theories?

You know what's frightening?

Is that nobody can assure me

that we can kill this thing!

But what I do know,

is that we've got to try,

(METAL THUDS)

(GASPS)

(SHIVERING)

(SNIFFLES)

ALIEN: Jake,

I'm trapped inside you,

And it's slowly

killing both of us,

It's clear now,

we can't co-exist,

If you're going to

survive this, I've got to die,

He didn't ask for much,

You know, I, ,,

(EXHALES)

He just wanted me

to teach about, uh,

how to ride a bike

without training wheels,

(SIGHS) I missed his

birth because I, ,,

I wouldn't cancel a trip,

Tell me, do I have more

of a right to this body

than you do?

Listen to me,

We don't have much time,

If you're gonna survive this,

you gotta do

exactly as I tell you,

He wants to talk to us,

Well, you should know that,

that kind of radiation

holds the risk of

serious collateral damage,

Look at me,

It's my only chance,

You have to trust me,

it's the only way,

Since when did you become

a medical authority, Jake?

Let's just say I was given

a crash course,

Why should we believe

anything this, this thing

communicates to you?

It's benign,

It's more than that,

it's good and it's decent,

And it's willing to sacrifice

its life to save mine,

We could try a moderate dose

of meson radiation,

measure it's effect on

the invading engrams and

then decide from there,

I won't lie to you, Jake,

if Dr, Bader can't find

an effective way to

purge this creature,

you are looking at

the gravest possible measures,

So I guess I don't have

much to lose, do I?

(SIGHS)

Are you ready, Jake?

Hell, yes,

(MECHANICAL WHIRRING)

He's here,

How's he doing?

Jake is doing as well

as could be expected,

considering what

he's been subjected to,

But even better,

all signs of the invasive

brain activity have

been eradicated,

You're certain?

Take a look yourself,

Even the moderate dose

began to eat away at it,

so I went for broke,

The red areas that we

determined were

the creature's,

are gone completely,

All indications are

that the brain,

it's back to normal,

Thank God,

The hell we've done

the right thing,

I still need

one more assurance,

This is gonna hurt, Jake,

God, I hope so,

(JAKE GROANS)

(BREATHES HEAVILY)

No healing, General,

Okay,

But let's give it

a few minutes,

It's gone,

I can feel it,

DR, BADER: Oh, my God,

What's wrong?

I just had a scary thought,

What if the electrical

activity in the red areas

we assumed were

taking over his brain,

were actually Jake's?

What the hell are you saying?

If the creature's synapses

were actually in retreat,

then we would have killed off

the wrong inhabitant

of Jake Worthy's body,

Your father loved you

very much, Timothy,

And he missed you,

until the day he died,

Tell me what I have to do,

Buy some time,

I'm dying, Jake,

In two-three days the most,

there won't be a trace of me,

Meson bombardment

is the only thing that

might bring me back,

But you'll

never survive it, Jake,

Never,

I understand,

JAKE: "How do you make up

for a life time of mistakes?

"A life of

squandered opportunities,

"For once I had to

make the right choice,

"to leave behind something

that could make a difference,

"That legacy,

"my otherworldly friend,

"that legacy is you,"

CONTROL VOICE: Few of us

have the opportunity

to truly begin again,

to redress the flaws

that tarnish our souls,

But only when we

remake ourselves,

can we remake the world,
