YOU ALWAYS DO THIS
THE HARD WAY, DON'T YOU?

WHY MESS WITH TRADITION?

( sirens wailing )

HEAR THAT? THEY'LL BE HERE SOON.

GIVE ME THE GUN.

I DON'T THINK SO.

I'LL GET IT. I ALWAYS DO.

NOT... THIS... TIME.

WRONG AGAIN.

WHY MESS WITH TRADITION?

SO,

THAT'S ANOTHER ONE FOR ME.

YOU'RE KEEPING SCORE, RIGHT?

BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME.

NOT AGAIN.

NOT AGAIN!

HOLD IT RIGHT THERE, PAL.

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.

THIS ISN'T WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.

YOU GET DOWN

AND YOU STAY DOWN!

OR YOU'RE AS GOOD AS DEAD.

GO AHEAD AND SHOOT ME, OFFICER.

IT WON'T MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE.

( 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.

IS VIOLENCE BORN
IN THE HEART OR IN THE MIND?

IF WE MUST KILL
TO PROTECT OURSELVES,

WHAT WILL THAT DO

TO OUR SOULS?

HEY, HEY, PARTNER,

I THOUGHT YOU WERE TAKING
THE REST OF THE WEEK OFF.

NO, I OKAYED IT WITH THE
LIEUTENANT THIS MORNING.

THREE DAYS OFF THE JOB AND
THEY GIVE YOU YOUR BADGE BACK?

I.A.B. REVIEW'S
NOT WHAT IT USED TO BE.

YOU SHOULD KNOW.

I CLEARED THOSE THREE CASES
WHILE YOU WERE GONE.

YES, SO I HEAR.

IF YOU'RE NOT UP TO SPEED,

I'LL TAKE THE LEAD
ON THIS ONE TOO.

THANKS FOR CARING.

WHAT HAVE WE GOT?

WELL, ACCORDING TO
RENT-A-COP NUMBER ONE...

NAME?

HIS NAME'S KIMBALL.

HE'S GOING TO CHECK OUT FRONT
WHEN THE PHONE RINGS.

IT'S RENT-A-COP NUMBER TWO
ON PATROL.

HE THINKS HE'S SEEN
OR HEARD SOMETHING,

OR SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING
REAL FREAKY.

ALL OF A SUDDEN... BANG,
AND THE LINE GOES DEAD.

SO KIMBALL STARTS TO FREAK
AND CALLS US.

ON OUR WAY IN
THERE'S ANOTHER BANG.

WE FIND NUMBER TWO

DEAD ALONGSIDE JOHN DOE,

ALSO DEAD.

( male detective )
YOU'VE GOT A POSSIBLE?

YEAH, CAUGHT HIM TRYING
TO LEAVE THE SCENE.

HE SAID THE OTHER DUDE
SHOT HIMSELF.

WHAT?

HE INSISTED ON THAT ONE.

SO, GOOD GUY COMES ACROSS
TWO BAD GUYS DOIN' BUSINESS.

HE PHONES IT IN, GETS A BULLET
FOR HIS TROUBLE.

BAD GUYS HAVE A DISAGREEMENT,
IT GETS PHYSICAL.

SOMEBODY PULLS A GUN, IT'S OVER.

THIS GUY YOU ARRESTED,

DID HE HAVE

ANYTHING ON HIM? DRUGS? MONEY?

NO, NOTHING LIKE THAT.

HE WOULDN'T HAVE TIME
TO STASH ANYTHING.

SO, WHAT WERE THEY
FIGHTING ABOUT?

POLITICS.

MAYBE RELIGION.

IT'S MORE CONTROVERSIAL.

MR. KIMBALL, HAVE YOU EVER
SEEN THIS MAN, OR THE MAN

WHO WAS ARRESTED BEFORE?

NO.

DO PEOPLE COME HERE OFTEN? NO.

THE MAN YOU ARRESTED...

WITHOUT ANY WITNESSES YOU'LL
HAVE TO LET HIM GO, WON'T YOU?

IT'S HARD TO SAY AT THIS POINT.

POSSIBLY. THAT MEANS YES.

IT'S ALWAYS
THE SAME WITH YOU GUYS.

YOU'VE HAD SOME BAD EXPERIENCES
WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT?

SORRY, I JUST HAD
A ROUGH MORNING.

CAN I GO NOW?

SURE. HERE.

ANYTHING ELSE YOU REMEMBER,

GIVE US A CALL.

GO AHEAD.

THIS WAS ALL HE HAD ON HIM.

WHAT IS HE, AN ENGINEER?

HE HASN'T SAID
MORE THAN TWO WORDS

SINCE THEY PICKED HIM UP.

CARE TO GUESS WHAT IT IS?

I GIVE UP.

THE BOMB SQUAD SAYS
IT'S NOT AN EXPLOSIVE.

WHAT ABOUT THE GUN?

TWO SHOTS, TOO MANY PRINTS.

IT'S GOING TO BE
IN BALLISTICS FOR A WHILE.

SO, UH, WHAT ABOUT THAT OTHER
SECURITY GUARD... KIMBALL?

HE MIGHT BE INVOLVED.

WE'LL GO AT HIM

AFTER WE TALK TO THE SHOOTER.

YOU SURE YOU'RE UP
FOR THIS CONVERSATION?

YES.

HE'S ALL YOURS.

ALL RIGHT, SIR.

EXCUSE ME.

WOULD YOU COME TAKE A SEAT?

THERE YOU GO.

SIT DOWN.

I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE
NOT MUCH OF A TALKER.

IF YOU'RE GOING
TO START OUT LIKE THIS,

IT'S GOING TO BE
A REALLY LONG DAY.

WELL, YOU KNOW, I FEEL THAT
THE ONLY POINT IN TALKING IS

IF THERE IS SOMEONE
WHO'S WILLING TO LISTEN.

THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR,

SO START NICE.

YOU GOT A NAME?

TOO MANY.

WELL, ONE WILL DO.

YOU BEGIN.

TERI.

WELL, YOU KNOW THAT
YOU HAVE TO LET ME GO, TERI,

BECAUSE I DIDN'T KILL ANYONE.

THAT'S RIGHT,
'CAUSE YOUR STORY IS

WHAT AGAIN NOW?

THE GUY KILLED HIMSELF, RIGHT?

WHAT A SHAME WE CAN'T ASK HIM.

WHAT A SHAME.

WAS HE A FRIEND OF YOURS?

NO, NO,

HE WAS MORE OF
AN ACQUAINTANCE REALLY.

OH, BOY.

SO, LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT.

YOU AND YOUR ACQUAINTANCE
WERE AT THE SCENE,

YOU GOT PISSED OFF

AT EACH OTHER, YOU FIGHT,

THE OTHER GUY GETS THE
GUN AND SHOOTS HIMSELF.

WHY?

OUT OF REMORSE FOR KICKING
YOUR ASS, IS THAT WHY?

DO YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW?

NO, WE JUST WANT TO SPEND TIME

WITH FASCINATING PEOPLE
LIKE YOURSELF.

OF COURSE WE WANT TO KNOW.

I WANT YOU TO TELL ME THE TRUTH.

TELL HIM TO WAIT OUTSIDE.

HEY, I DO NOT TAKE ORDERS
FROM PUNKS LIKE YOU.

WHY DO YOU WANT HIM
TO WAIT OUTSIDE?

HE CAN'T APPRECIATE
WHAT I'VE GOT TO TELL YOU,

AND I DON'T LIKE HIM.

YOU DON'T LIKE ME?

I DON'T LIKE YOU
THAT MUCH EITHER.

FRANK.

ALL RIGHT.

I'LL JUST GO RUN THE PICTURES.

GOODBYE, FRANK.

I'LL JUST BE OUTSIDE.

THE NAME'S GERARD.

OKAY, HEY, GERARD.

SO TELL ME, WHO'S THE KILLER?

IT'S NOT A WHO, IT'S A WHAT.

YOU'LL HAVE TO DO BETTER.

IT'S NOT HUMAN.

THEY NEVER ARE.

I CAN PROVE IT, OF COURSE,

AND ALL YOU HAVE TO DO
IS LOOK INTO MY EYES.

GIVE ME A BREAK.

TERI, HAVE YOU EVER WISHED THAT
SOMEONE COULD JUST LOOK AT YOU

AND KNOW EXACTLY
WHAT WAS IN YOUR MIND,

OR IN YOUR HEART?

WOULDN'T IT BE NICE

IF PEOPLE COULD JUST SEE THINGS
THE WAY THAT YOU DID?

NOT BY MAKING WEAK INFERENCES
FROM SOME VAGUE DEPOSITION

OR A COLD BALLISTICS REPORT,

BUT BY ACTUALLY SEEING
THE EVENTS... FOR THEMSELVES.

THE WAY IN WHICH
THEY ACTUALLY HAPPENED.

HAVE YOU EVER WISHED THAT
BEFORE?

DO YOU EXPECT ME TO BELIEVE
THAT YOU CAN DO THAT?

SURE.

HEY, IT'S JUST A LITTLE TALENT

THAT I'VE DEVELOPED
OVER THE YEARS.

AH, COME ON, TERI.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE?

YOU BETTER MAKE THIS GOOD.

OKAY.

THE PLACE IS LONDON
AND THE YEAR IS 1888.

A MAN IS DRIFTING
THROUGH HIS LIFE.

HE'S DISSIPATING HIS TALENT

AND HIS PRIVILEGE

IN ALCOHOL AND LAUDANUM.

A SAD MAN, TERI.

A USELESS MAN WITHOUT A PURPOSE,

UNTIL ONE NIGHT,
WHEN THE MAN SAW SOMETHING.

HE SAW SOMETHING

THAT HE WOULD NEVER FORGET.

( women moaning )

( woman screaming )

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

I'M A DOCTOR.

HELP, POLICE!

MURDERER! MURDERER!

GET UP.

WHY?

DAMN IT, GET UP! MOVE!

THE DISORIENTATION THAT
YOU'RE FEELING IS NORMAL.

IT WILL PASS.

HEY, YOU'RE NOT HURT.

WHAT ARE YOU SO SCARED OF?

I DIDN'T TRY TO ESCAPE.

WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME?

I TRANSMITTED THOSE
IMAGES THAT YOU SAW

DIRECTLY INTO YOUR MIND.

DON'T GIVE ME THAT CRAP. HOW?

THEY'RE LIKE MEMORIES.

IT'S A FORM OF COMMUNICATION.

IT'S LIKE TELLING
A STORY WITH PICTURES.

LISTEN TO ME.

I'M AFRAID THAT I AM NOT EXACTLY

WHAT I APPEAR TO BE.

I AM NOT A HUMAN BEING, TERI.

I AM AN ENERGY BEING.

DEVOID OF ANY PERMANENT
PHYSICAL FORM,

LIKE THOSE THINGS
I JUST SHOWED YOU.

YOU EXPECT ME TO BELIEVE THIS?

YOU KNOW WHAT YOU SAW.

YOU READ A BOOK
ON HYPNOSIS... BIG DEAL.

YOU DON'T BELIEVE THAT.

BUT I'M SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE
THAT YOU'RE AN ALIEN?

YEAH.

TELL ME SOMETHING.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN YOU, TERI,

AND A BODY LYING IN THE MORGUE?

I MEAN, CHEMICALLY
YOU'RE PRETTY MUCH THE SAME.

SO, WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?

WHAT'S DIFFERENT IS
THE UNIQUE COLLECTION

OF ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS
AND ENERGY PATTERNS

WHICH YOU REFER TO
AS TERI'S THOUGHTS,

TERI'S CONSCIOUSNESS.

YOU MEAN A SOUL.

WELL, WHATEVER YOU LIKE.

WHERE I COME FROM,
THAT IS WHAT WE ARE.

THIS BODY, IT IS A CONTAINER.

IT IS A CONVENIENT MEANS
FOR ME TO INTERACT WITH YOU.

THERE HAVE BEEN MANY OTHERS.

THERE WILL BE MANY MORE.

THE ONE RESPONSIBLE
FOR THE MURDER,

HE IS ALSO FROM MY WORLD,

BUT HE IS A PSYCHOPATHIC KILLER,

AND I HAVE BEEN TRACKING HIM
FOR OVER A CENTURY.

ARE YOU SOME KIND OF COP?

SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

THE ENGLISHMAN I SHOWED YOU...

HE IS JUST ONE IN A LONG LINE
OF INNOCENT VICTIMS.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

WELL, COME HERE
AND I'LL SHOW YOU.

UNLESS YOU DON'T CARE

TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM.

WHERE'S YOUR CANE NOW, JACK?

RIGHT HERE!

SURPRISE.

WHAT IN GOD'S NAME ARE YOU?

I'M A NIGHTMARE, JACK.

YOU'RE NOT EVEN OF THIS WORLD,

ARE YOU?

BRAVO.

WHY DON'T YOU GO BACK
TO YOUR OWN KIND?

WHY DO YOU THINK?

YOU CHOOSE TO BE HERE.

I MUST APPLAUD
YOUR PERSISTENCE, JACK.

NO ONE'S EVER COME
QUITE THIS CLOSE BEFORE.

IT GIVES ME A CERTAIN
FRISSON OF EXCITEMENT.

AND ARE THERE...

ARE THERE OTHERS?

OTHER RACES BESIDES YOUR OWN

OUT THERE?

BEYOND IMAGINING.

BUT WHY ME?

WHY DID YOU HAVE TO PICK ME?

YOU'RE THE PERFECT
LIGHTNING ROD.

THEY ALREADY HAVE

ENOUGH CLUES TO SUSPECT YOU

OF THE MURDERS.

I'LL JUST KEEP
ENTERTAINING MYSELF

UNTIL THEY FINALLY HAVE
ENOUGH CLUES TO CONVICT YOU.

GOODBYE, JACK.

NO!

AHH!

BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME.

SHE'S THE ONE YOU WANT.

I'M TELLING YOU.

SHE'S NOT EVEN HUMAN!

OH, INSPECTOR LANGFORD.

INSPECTOR LANGFORD,
YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME.

THAT THING IS STILL OUT THERE.

I'M AFRAID THAT'S NOT
MY CONCERN ANYMORE, MR. YORK.

I'M RETIRING.

WHAT?

I'M GOING TO AMERICA
FOR MY HEALTH.

I SHALL ESCORT LADY ELLEN
WHILE SHE VISITS THERE.

IT'S THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY.

DON'T WORRY.

SHE'LL HARDLY FEEL A THING.

NO! NO!

SO, TELL ME SOMETHING, TERI.

ARE YOU GOING TO HELP ME,

OR ARE YOU GOING TO STAND AROUND
UNTIL THE KILLER KILLS AGAIN?

I NEED TIME TO THINK.

MM-HMM.

YOU DO THAT.

I RECOMMEND YOU DON'T TELL
ANYONE ELSE WHAT YOU SAW

BECAUSE I'LL DENY EVERYTHING.

I WON'T HAVE YOUR SCIENTISTS

DISSECT ME LIKE
SOME LABORATORY ANIMAL.

AND MAKE NO MISTAKE,

IT WILL BE YOU WHO ENDS UP
IN AN ASYLUM, JUST LIKE JACK.

YOU GO AND THINK NOW.

SO, HOW'S IT GOING IN THERE?

HIS NAME'S GERARD.

GERARD?

THAT'S IT?

HE LEADS A RICH FANTASY LIFE.

I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT
THE BEST WAY TO COME AT HIM.

IF YOU'RE HAVING TROUBLE...

I'M GETTING TO HIM.

SURE.
THEY GOT AN I.D. ON THE CORPSE.

RIGHT ON THE TOP OF THE STACK

AT MISSING PERSONS.

MARK ESTERHAUS.

HE'S AN INSURANCE SALESMAN.

WHAT IS AN INSURANCE SALESMAN
WITH A WIFE AND THREE KIDS

DOING MIXED UP IN THIS?

EXACTLY.

EXCUSE ME.

ARE YOU DETECTIVE RUSSO?

YEAH.

I'M PATTY RIDELL.

I'M BILLY RIDELL'S MOTHER.

OH, MA'AM, WE'RE VERY SORRY,

BUT THERE'S NOT MUCH
WE CAN DO FOR YOU HERE.

I NEED TO SPEAK TO YOU.

IT WON'T TAKE LONG. IT'S OKAY.

I HEARD THAT

YOU WERE CLEARED OF ANY
WRONGDOING FOR SHOOTING MY BOY.

THAT'S CORRECT.

YOU PEOPLE CALL THAT
A GOOD SHOOT, DON'T YOU?

YEAH.

A GOOD SHOOT.

BILLY'S LIFE STARTED WITH ME
AND ENDED WITH YOU.

WE'RE ALWAYS GOING TO BE
CONNECTED THAT WAY,

YOU AND ME.

BECAUSE OF THAT,

I JUST WANT YOU
TO UNDERSTAND SOMETHING.

WHEN BILLY WAS REALLY YOUNG,

HE STARTED HANGING OUT
IN SOME BAD PLACES

WITH SOME BAD PEOPLE,

SO I STARTED YELLING AT HIM.

YOU GOT TO TRY
AND DISCIPLINE THEM

WHILE YOU STILL CAN, RIGHT?

HE KEPT TELLING ME

THAT HE WASN'T DOING
ANYTHING WRONG,

BUT I DIDN'T BELIEVE HIM.

I JUST KEPT YELLING
AND YELLING AND YELLING

UNTIL FINALLY
HE JUST STOPPED DENYING IT.

MRS. RIDELL,

YOUR SON WAS ON CRACK
AND WAS ASSAULTING

A 9-YEAR-OLD GIRL
WHEN I FOUND HIM.

HE TURNED A GUN ON ME.

I HAD NO CHOICE.

I KNOW.

I'M SORRY.

I KNOW THAT HE HURT
A LOT OF PEOPLE

AND THAT
IF YOU HADN'T STOPPED HIM,

HE WOULD HAVE HURT A LOT MORE.

YOU'RE NOT THE ONE
I'M POINTING THE FINGER AT.

I JUST CAN'T HELP BUT THINK
THAT IF I BELIEVED HIM,

WHEN HE TOLD ME
HE WAS BEING GOOD,

THAT MAYBE HE WOULD HAVE
TURNED OUT THAT WAY.

BECAUSE I KNOW...

I KNOW THAT HE WAS GOOD ONCE.

I JUST WANTED YOU TO KNOW THAT.

DETECTIVE DANIELS,
I THINK WE SHOULD TALK.

SURE.

ANSWER A QUESTION.

IF YOU ARE WHAT YOU SAY YOU ARE,

WHY DON'T YOU JUST
WALK OUT OF HERE?

I DOUBT ANY OF US COULD
STOP YOU.

IF YOU WERE SHOT,

YOU COULD JUST TRANSFER
INTO SOMEBODY ELSE.

YES, THAT'S TRUE.

HOWEVER, IF I ATTEMPTED ESCAPE,

MANY PEOPLE WOULD BE INJURED,

MOST LIKELY KILLED.

THE THING I'M CHASING
WOULDN'T CARE ABOUT THAT.

BUT I DO.

LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING
ABOUT MY ACQUAINTANCE.

YOU SEE,

EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE
WE COME ACROSS A HUMAN

WITH WHOM WE SHARE
A PARTICULAR AFFINITY.

IT'S IN THESE BODIES
WE'RE ABLE TO EXERCISE

CERTAIN NATURAL ABILITIES.

IT WOULD BE AS IF
YOU WOKE UP IN THE BODY

OF A PROFESSIONAL ATHLETE.

YOU'D BE ABLE TO BREATHE DEEPER,
JUMP HIGHER,

RUN FASTER THAN
YOU EVER COULD BEFORE.

AFTER THE INCIDENTS IN LONDON,

I EVENTUALLY TRACKED MY QUARRY
TO THE OLD AMERICAN WEST,

WHERE HE HAD FOUND SUCH A BODY.

SHOW ME.

( hammer clanging on anvil )

SORRY, BOYS,
I'M CLOSED FOR THE DAY.

WE NEED SOME NEW HARNESSES
AND SADDLES.

COME BACK TOMORROW.
I'LL BE HAPPY TO OUTFIT YOU.

RATHER NOT.

THIS'LL DO. TRY IT OUT.

I'LL PICK OUT SOME BRIDLES.

HEY, YOU GOING TO PAY FOR THAT?

WASN'T PLANNING TO.

THAT'S FAR ENOUGH.

THE MAN'S BENT ON DYING, J.D.

I THINK HE IS.

NEXT ONE IS DEAD CENTER.

IT SURE IS.

YOU SON OF A BITCH!

NOW, THAT'S THE KIND OF MAN
THAT I'M TRYING TO STOP.

SO, YES, TERI, I COULD
FORCE MY WAY OUT OF HERE,

BUT I WON'T HAVE INNOCENT
BLOOD ON MY CONSCIENCE.

ONE MUST HAVE A REASON TO KILL,
MUSTN'T ONE?

IF YOU WANT ME TO BELIEVE YOU,

YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE
TO TELL ME MORE...

A LOT MORE.

THE BODY YOU'RE IN NOW...

WHO WAS IT?

AN INDIGENT.

NO FRIEND OR FAMILY.

A LOST SOUL

BENT ON KILLING HIMSELF
WITH DRUGS

AND ALCOHOL.

I DON'T ENJOY WHAT I DO.

I ONLY DO WHAT I MUST.

AS CONVINCING
AS YOUR IMAGES ARE,

UNFORTUNATELY,
THEY DON'T PROVE ANYTHING.

IF YOU WANT ANYONE
TO BELIEVE YOUR STORY,

YOU'LL NEED SOME HARD EVIDENCE.

HAVE YOUR DOCTORS
COMPLETED THEIR AUTOPSY

ON THE MAN WHO SHOT HIMSELF?

I DOUBT IT. WHY?

THEY WILL FIND
HIS INTERNAL ORGANS WERE,

FOR WANT OF A BETTER WORD,
CONSUMED.

THERE WILL BE
NO EXPLANATION FOR THIS.

WHY?

A SIDE EFFECT OF THE WAY
WE OCCUPY A HOST.

SOONER OR LATER, THE BODY,
IT... IT BURNS OUT.

EVEN IF HE HADN'T BEEN SHOT,

HE WOULD HAVE DIED SOON ENOUGH.

WHY NOT TRANSFER INTO SOMEBODY
ELSE BEFORE THAT HAPPENS?

UNFORTUNATELY,
IT'S NOT THAT SIMPLE.

WHEN WE TRANSFER INTO A HUMAN,
WE BIND TO ITS NERVOUS SYSTEM.

THE ONLY WAY TO TRANSFER OUT

IS WHEN THE HOST BODY IS
BRAIN DEAD.

WE MUST TAKE OVER
A NEW HOST WITHIN MOMENTS,

OR WE CEASE TO EXIST.

THAT'S WHY ESTERHAUS
SHOT HIMSELF...

TO GET AWAY FROM YOU.

WHO DID HE TRANSFER INTO?

I DON'T KNOW THAT.

I WISH I DID.

YES, THIS IS DETECTIVE RUSSO.

I NEED THE MEDICAL EXAMINER.

THANKS.

NEIDOR, HOW ARE YOU DOING?

WELL, THAT'S VERY CYNICAL.

OKAY, YOU'RE RIGHT,
I NEED A FAVOR.

THE ONE THAT CAME IN
THIS MORNING...

A .38 IN THE CHEST?

NO, NO, I WON'T HOLD YOU TO IT.

LIKE HIS INSIDES WERE
ALL BURNT UP.

NO, IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE
TO ME EITHER.

THANKS.

I'M GLAD YOU TOOK
THAT INTERVIEW BY YOURSELF,

'CAUSE I MIGHT HAVE MISSED OUT

ON ONE OF THE GREATEST
LOONY TUNES

I'VE EVER TALKED TO...

KIMBALL, THE SECURITY GUARD
WHO CALLED IT IN.

MAYBE HE MISSED THE LOCAL
STAR TREK CONVENTION.

HE'S UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT
HE'S POSSESSED BY SOME KIND OF

ALIEN ENERGY BEING,
OR SOMETHING.

WHAT?

OH, MY GOD.

WHAT?

YOU JUST MADE MY JOB
A WHOLE LOT EASIER.

I SEE HE'S ALREADY MADE
AN IMPRESSION ON YOU.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

HE'S BEEN SHOWING YOU
THE THINGS I'VE SUPPOSEDLY DONE.

IT'S AN IMPRESSIVE LIST.
SHOWING YOU?

HE'S BEEN LYING TO YOU,
DETECTIVE RUSSO,

ABOUT A LOT OF THINGS.

YOU SEE, I'M NOT SOME KIND

OF PSYCHOPATHIC MURDERER.

HE IS, AND I'VE BEEN AFTER HIM
FOR LONGER THAN I CAN REMEMBER.

THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU
TELL US THE TRUTH?

I WASN'T SURE
YOU COULD BE TRUSTED.

HE HAS THIS KNACK
FOR MAKING FRIENDS EASILY.

YOU TOOK THE BODY

OF AN INNOCENT MAN.

WOULD YOU PREFER I TOOK
A POLICEMAN'S BODY INSTEAD?

I DIDN'T HAVE MANY OPTIONS.

DO YOU BELIEVE THIS GUY?

YEAH, GERARD TOLD ME
THE SAME THING.

I BELIEVE HIM.

DO YOU HAVE A REAL REASON?

OR IS IT JUST A FEELING?

BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT
HE'S COUNTING ON.

I WANT TO KNOW
WHAT THE TWO OF YOU...

YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW.

WHAT ARE YOU TWO TALKING ABOUT?

I'D BE HAPPY TO TELL YOU.

BEFORE HE TRANSFERRED
INTO THE BODY OF GERARD,

HE WAS ROMANTICALLY
INVOLVED WITH A YOUNG

FBI AGENT,

WHO HAD ACCESS TO A REMARKABLE
PIECE OF TECHNOLOGY.

( phone ringing )

GRAND CENTRAL STATION.

I HAVE TO GET THAT.

I HAVE TO.

HELLO?

AGENT PRATT, THERE'S A MATTER

THAT DEMANDS
YOUR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION.

TIME TRAVEL...

A MEANS TO STOP CRIME
BEFORE IT STARTS.

THIS IS A SICK JOKE.

A FETUS'S PRETEMPORAL LOBE CAN
REGULATE AN ENERGY FIELD.

THAT FIELD BECOMES
A DOORWAY TO THE PAST.

LOOK WITHIN YOURSELF.

SOMETHING HAS CHANGED.

CAN'T YOU FEEL IT?

FEEL WHAT, DR. GIVENS?

DO YOU KNOW WHY THE N.S.A. IS
SO INTERESTED IN ME?

BECAUSE I COULD HAVE MADE
MY TIME MACHINE WORK EVEN THEN,

BUT I DIDN'T WANT THEM
TO HAVE IT.

NOT BEFORE I HAD
SET THINGS RIGHT.

DAYS LIKE PEARLS,
A STRING OF PEARLS,

EACH PEARL AN EVENT.

THE PAST SEEMS IMMUTABLE, SOLID,

BUT GO BACK IN TIME,
CHANGE ONE EVENT

AND YOU LIQUEFY EVERY PEARL
THAT FOLLOWS.

YOU CHANGE THE ENTIRE STRING.

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT,

BUT I'LL ADVISE YOU
OF YOUR RIGHTS.

I KEPT PUTTING IT OFF,

BUT NOW I AM OUT OF TIME.

AND IT'S TEARING ME APART.

PUT THAT WEAPON DOWN.

DR. GIVENS, PUT IT DOWN.

( machine activating )

EVEN IF THIS WERE POSSIBLE,

WHY WOULD ANYONE DO
SUCH A THING?

TO KILL THE KILLERS
BEFORE THEY CAN KILL.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT?

DR. GIVENS,

YOU NEED HELP.

I'M SORRY YOU FEEL THAT WAY.

THAT TIME MACHINE...

WE FOUND PLANS FOR IT ON GERARD.

THAT'S BECAUSE HE STOLE THEM.

HE MURDERED THE AGENT WHO HAD
BEEN USING THE DEVICE

AND HE'S BEEN TRYING
TO RECONSTRUCT IT FOR HIMSELF.

WHY?

TO ENABLE HIMSELF
TO TRAVEL WHEREVER

AND WHENEVER HE WANTS.

TO PREY ON PEOPLE
THROUGHOUT HISTORY,

AND TO ESCAPE ME FOREVER.

AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT
HE'S GOING TO DO.

UNLESS YOU HELP ME STOP HIM.

THE FBI WILL ONLY CONFIRM
THAT AGENT JAMIE PRATT

WAS REPORTED MISSING
SEVERAL WEEKS AGO.

LAST SEEN WITH HER BOYFRIEND.
NO.

HER ASSIGNMENT WAS CLASSIFIED.

YOU MEAN, THESE GUYS COULD BE
ACTUALLY TELLING US THE TRUTH?

THIS IS REALLY NUTS.

KNOW HOW NUTS THIS IS?

TIME MACHINES?
ALIEN ENERGY BEINGS?

WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO,
CALL NASA?

WE'LL PROBABLY END UP IN AREA 51

WITH BAGS OVER OUR HEADS,

IF WE'RE NOT
INSTITUTIONALIZED FIRST.

ANY PROGRESS?

NOTHING DEFINITE.

WE HAVE TWICE AS MANY SUSPECTS.

SO, WHO DO YOU LIKE?

WE NEED MORE TIME, LIEUTENANT.

TRY NOT TO KEEP ME IN SUSPENSE
FOR TOO MUCH LONGER,

ALL RIGHT?

ALL RIGHT.

OKAY, ONE OF THESE GUYS HAS
GOT TO BE LYING.

KIMBALL CAME IN ON HIS OWN.
A GUILTY MAN DOESN'T DO THAT.

BUT GERARD ISN'T LYING.

HOW CAN YOU BE SURE?

I CAN'T.

RIGHT.

LET'S SEE HOW HE REACTS
TO WHAT KIMBALL SAID.

ALL RIGHT.

HE'S HERE.
HE'S IN THIS BUILDING.

WE CAN SENSE WHEN
THE OTHER IS NEAR.

HAVE YOU ARRESTED HIM YET?

ON WHAT? ON YOUR SAY-SO?

OH, I SEE.

OH, LET ME GUESS.

HE'S TOLD YOU THAT EVERYTHING
THAT I'VE SAID IS A LIE.

ACTUALLY, HE'S CONFIRMED
EVERYTHING YOU'VE SAID,

EXCEPT HE SAYS THAT HE'S THE
COP AND YOU'RE THE KILLER.

THAT'S NOT TRUE.

HE SHOWED US YOUR MACHINE.

OH, MY MACHINE?

YEAH, THE MACHINE THAT YOU
KILLED THE FBI AGENT TO GET.

I HAD TO KILL HER, TERI.

I HAD TO PREVENT HIM FROM
GETTING TO THE DEVICE.

I AM NOT THE CRIMINAL HERE.

HE HAS KILLED HUNDREDS.

TERI, YOU'VE GOT TO BELIEVE ME.

YOU DON'T KNOW
WHO YOU'RE DEALING WITH.

I KNOW WHAT HE'S THINKING.

WE'RE ON THE SAME WAVELENGTH.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE
WHAT I HAVE SEEN?

THROUGH HIS EYES.

ARE WE FINISHED YET?

NOT QUITE.

GERARD ADMITS
TO KILLING THE FBI AGENT.

WHY DOES HE CONFESS TO A MURDER,

IF HE'S LYING
ABOUT THE REST OF IT?

THAT'S WHAT
HE WANTS YOU TO THINK.

DETECTIVE DANIELS,

YOU HAVE

A SIMPLE DECISION TO MAKE.

ARE YOU GOING
TO ARREST HIM OR NOT?

I DON'T KNOW
IF WE CAN MAKE ANYTHING STICK.

DETECTIVE RUSSO BELIEVES
HE'S INNOCENT, DOESN'T SHE?

AND YOU KNOW
SHE'S MAKING A MISTAKE.

DO YOU TRUST HER JUDGMENT

BETTER THAN YOUR OWN?

I TRUST HER JUDGMENT
BETTER THAN YOURS.

YOU WANT SOME PROOF
OF MY JUDGMENT?

THESE MENTAL MOVIES
WON'T CONSTITUTE PROOF

TO ANYONE.

I SAID PROOF...

SOMETHING TANGIBLE,
SOMETHING REAL.

( woman screaming )

( man laughing )

NO.

PLEASE.

NO.

YOU'RE NEVER GOING
TO KNOW WHERE I AM, BUDDY.

I'VE BEEN TOO CAREFUL.

I'VE BEEN LOOKING
FOR A GOOD CLEAN HOST.

GOTTA TELL YA...
THEY'RE VERY HARD TO COME BY.

DR. M. HERE,

SHE'S MY LAST HOPE
OF GETTING A GOOD ONE.

BUT ONCE YOU'RE ROTTING
AWAY IN JAIL,

I'M GOING TO HAVE
TO STOP LOOKING.

SERIAL MURDERS.

SIMPLE, VICIOUS ACTS
OF BRUTALITY.

HE ENJOYS THEM.

HE TAUNTS ME WITH THEM.

EVERY TIME I COME CLOSE,

HE FINDS A WAY

TO ESCAPE.

YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE
WHO CAN STOP HIM.

HOW?

SHOOT HIM AND HOPE THAT HE
DOESN'T JUMP INTO SOMEBODY ELSE?

YOU'RE NOT TELLING ME
ANYTHING NEW.

IF YOU LET HIM GO,

HE'S ONLY GOING TO DO IT AGAIN!

I TRACKED HIM HERE

WHEN I WAS IN ESTERHAUS'S BODY.

I FOUND HIM BUILDING THE DEVICE,

AND THAT'S WHEN HE CAUGHT
ME SNOOPING AROUND.

THEN HE SHOT ME

WHEN I TRIED TO GET AWAY.

IF THIS DOESN'T
CONSTITUTE EVIDENCE,

I DON'T KNOW WHAT DOES.

IT'S NOT FINISHED YET?

NO, BUT IT'S CLOSE.

LOOKS LIKE YOU STOPPED
GERARD JUST IN TIME,

NO PUN INTENDED.

I COULDN'T HAVE DONE IT
WITHOUT YOU, CHIEF.

MAKE SURE YOU MENTION THAT

TO LIEUTENANT BATES

AND MY PARTNER DETECTIVE RUSSO.

I'M GETTING
THE LAB BOYS DOWN HERE.

THEY'LL LOVE THIS.

I HAVE A BETTER IDEA.

WHAT?

HERE.

LET ME SHOW YOU.

TURN AROUND.

THEY'RE MOVING YOU
DOWN TO CITY CENTER.

I'LL TAKE YOU THERE MYSELF.

YOU LET HIM GO?

WE COULDN'T HOLD HIM.

HE WASN'T UNDER ARREST, YOU ARE.

I TOLD YOU WE COULD
SENSE EACH OTHER.

I KNOW WHERE HE IS.

LOOK.

THEY'VE GONE BACK
TO THE WAREHOUSE.

HE'S DECEIVED YOUR PARTNER.

NOW, TELL ME SOMETHING...

IF HE IS WHO HE SAYS HE IS,

WHY WOULD HE START UP
THE TIME MACHINE?

HOW CAN I STOP HIM?

YOU CAN'T DO IT BY YOURSELF.

GOOD,

I KNEW YOU'D COME.

FRANK, WHERE'S KIMBALL?

MOVE AWAY FROM HIM.

YOU'RE BACKING THE WRONG GUY.

THAT'S NOT DANIELS ANYMORE.

MOVE AWAY FROM HIM!

THAT'S NOT HIM, TERI.

TERI!

( cocking gun )

NO!

WOO-EEE! LOOKS LIKE I WON.

( laughing )

OH, MY GOD.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

NO, NO, I WON.

NO, HE BELIEVED ME
ENOUGH TO SHOOT YOU.

SO? I HAD HER CONVINCED ENOUGH

TO SHOOT HER PARTNER.

ALL RIGHT, WHAT DOES
THAT MAKE IT THEN?

I DON'T KNOW. I'VE LOST COUNT.

NEXT TIME, I GET TO KILL MYSELF.

NO WAY... WE WRESTLE FOR IT
LIKE WE ALWAYS DO, BUDDY BOY.

I DON'T BELIEVE THIS.

YOU ARE A TRADITIONALIST!

YES! THIS WAS ALL FOR FUN?

IT WAS SOME KIND OF A GAME?

HEY, YOU LIVE FOREVER,
YOU GET BORED.

WE DO THIS
TO RELIEVE THE BOREDOM.

YOUR POLICE CREDENTIALS
WILL MAKE IT

SO MUCH EASIER TO COMPLETE

THE TIME MACHINE, AND THEN
WE ARE GOING TO HAVE SOME FUN.

YOUR BODY'S DYING.

WHEREVER AND WHENEVER WE CHOOSE.

GET IT OVER WITH.

WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
A WONDERFUL TIME TOGETHER.

TAKE THEM ALL OUT,

TERI.

BACK OFF, SHE'S MINE!

WHAT ABOUT ME?!

SHE BELONGS TO ME.

WHERE AM I GOING TO GO?

NOWHERE EVER AGAIN.

NEITHER ONE OF YOU.

BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME.

NO! NO!

( Control Voice ) IN THE
STRUGGLE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH,

SOMETIMES SURVIVAL IS NOT
THE ONLY WAY TO WIN.
