HI, EMILY.

DIDN'T NEED TO BE LIKE THIS, DID IT?

EMILY GRAY...

FIRST CLASS HONOURS, HIGH SCHOOL,

GRADUATED VANCOUVER.

EVERYTHING SEEMS TO HAVE GONE

PRETTY SWIMMINGLY UNTIL 1995:

THEN, 1996 COMES ALONG AND...

WOW...

YOU TRY TO DROWN A LITTLE BOY

IN THE LAKE, OUT OF THE BLUE.

YOU SERVE FIVE YEARS FOR THAT,

YOU'RE OUT FOR ONLY ONE,

AND THEN, THIS MESS:

YOU WANT TO TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON?

I MEAN, YOU DO, RIGHT?

THAT'S WHY YOU CONFESSED.

I'M ALL EARS, EMILY.

YOU GOT SOMETHING WORTH SAYING,

LET'S HEAR IT.

WHAT...THE HELL...HAPPENED?

WHAT IF I TOLD YOU THAT

I KNEW THE MEANING OF LIFE?

THE THING YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND IS...

EITHER EVERYTHING HAS MEANING

OR NOTHING DOES.

LOOK AROUND.

LIFE IS JUST AN ACCIDENT, MAN.

RANDOM COLLISION OF PARTICLES IN SPACE.

ANY MEANING IT HAS, IS ONLY ONE

WE'VE GIVEN IT OURSELVES.

JUST LIKE THE RIDDLE.

"WHAT DO THE POOR HAVE,"

"THAT THE RICH WANT AND GOD FEARS?"

LIKE DEATH OR LOVE OR GOD,

THE ANSWER TO A RIDDLE

ALL DEPENDS ON HOW YOU LOOK AT THINGS.

"WHAT THE POOR HAVE,

THAT THE RICH WANT AND GOD FEARS?"

SIMPLE.

NOTHING.

THAT IS SO FOR REAL.

IT'S LIKE EVERYTHING IS JUST ONE

BIG PUZZLE IN YOUR MIND.

MMM...[ DOOR BELL RINGING ]

AND EVERY MIND IS DIFFERENT.

Vern Stepehens: YOU WERE LATE.

Sara Novak: I GOT SIDETRACKED.

THE BUILDINGS HAVE ALARMS,

BUT THERE'S NO ON-SITE SECURITY.

GO.

"WHAT DEMANDS AN ANSWER BUT ASKS NO QUESTION?"

[RINGING]

Vern: OK, SARA, YOU READY FOR THIS?

IT'S IN KIND OF A STRANGE PLACE.

THANKS FOR THE TIP, DAD. WHAT'S THE NEXT CLUE?

YOU'RE HOLDING IT.

YOU'RE ONE STRANGE PUPPY, YOU KNOW THAT, LADY?

THREE YEARS IN THAT STORE,

YOU'RE THE FIRST PERSON I'VE MET INTO THIS SHIT,

THAT'S NOT A KID

OR A FREAK LIKE ME.

IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE WORLD DIFFERENTLY,

YOU HAVE TO PRACTICE SEEING IT DIFFERENTLY.

WHATEVER ROWS YOUR BOAT, BABY.

BY THE WAY...

YOU GOT THREE MINUTES TO GO.

[COIN RATTLING]

"JUST KEEP LETTERS THAT WIN THIS RACE,"

"THEN FIND YOUR FINAL RESTING PLACE."

LETTERS THAT WIN THIS RACE.

FIRST LETTERS...

A PHONE NUMBER.

J...K...L...

J-K-L.

THAT...WIN...THIS...RACE.

[PHONE RINGING]

[PHONE RINGING]

[PHONE RINGING]

FIND YOUR FINAL RESTING PLACE.

GOTCHA.

[ALARM BEEPING]

[ALARM BEEPING]

WHAT IS LIFE?

WHO ARE WE?

WHY ARE WE?

WHY DO THINGS HAPPEN THE WAY THEY HAPPEN?

TODAY IN OUR PHILOSOPHY DISCUSSION,

WE WILL BE LOOKING AT THREE KEY FIGURES:

ARISTOTLE, DESCARTES,AND NIETZSCHE.

THREE DIFFERENT MEN

WITH THREE VERY DIFFERENT VIEWS OF THE WORLD.

NOVAK...

HEY, NOVAK.

I JUST WANT TO TELL YOU

HOW MOVED I WAS BY WHAT YOU SAID

THE OTHER DAY IN CLASS.

UM...

PFFT...

ALL THAT STUFF ABOUT

THE NATURE OF REALITY

AND EVERYTHING...

IT REALLY TOUCHED ME, YOU KNOW.

AND I THOUGHT THAT MAYBE YOU AND I COULD GO OUT SOMETIME

AND DISCUSS IT A LITTLE MORE IN DEPTH?

THANKS CURRAN,

BUT I THINK I'LL PASS.

OH...

I'M SERIOUS.

YOU KNOW MARIE, RIGHT?

WE'VE GOT THIS LITTLE STUDY GROUP GOING,

AND WE'D BOTH VERY MUCH VALUE YOUR INPUT.

BUT, I HAVE TO SAY, THAT IT'S NOT SO MUCH A, UH...

METAPHYSICAL THING, AS IT WERE;

IT'S REALLY MORE HANDS ON, YOU KNOW.

SO, HOW ABOUT IT?

WOULD YOU BE INTERESTED IN A...

GROUP LEARNING EXPERIENCE?

OH, COME ON, IT WAS JUST A QUESTION.

CURRAN, HAVE YOU EVER STOPPED TO WONDER

WHY NONE OF THE LITTLE GAMES YOU PLAY EVER WORK?

OR DO YOU JUST FIGURE IT'S A HYGIENE PROBLEM?

HEY, I'M ONLY RESPONDING

TO ALL YOUR DIRTY LITTLE SIGNALS, HONEYSUCKLE.

HA, HA, WELL READJUST YOUR RADAR, ROMEO.

OH.

OK, SO MAYBE I GOT YOU ALL WRONG,

BUT AT LEAST I'M NOT THE ONE

LUGGING SOME BIG, DARK SECRET

AROUND WITH ME ALL THE TIME...HMM?

YOU'VE GOT A SECRET, NOVAK.

THE WHOLE SCHOOL PRACTICALLY KNOWS IT.

MMM. LET ME GUESS. I'M A CLOSET NYMPHOMANIAC.

OH...AHH...

TWICE A WEEK YOU DRIVE A CAR TO SCHOOL,

BUT THEN TAKE THE SUBWAY HOME AT NIGHT,

AND THEN, BACK THE NEXT MORNING.

SO, THAT MEANS YOU MUST BE GOING SOMEWHERE

YOU DON'T WANT YOUR CAR TO BE SEEN...

RIGHT?

I GUESS, UH, LITTLE MISS ANGEL

ISN'T SUCH AN ANGEL AFTER ALL.

SO, COME ON, TELL ME...

WHERE DO YOU GO WHEN YOU CATCH THE TRAIN?

[CLAMOURING]

ALL RIGHT, PEOPLE.

AS MOST OF YOU KNOW,

THE LOUSY BASTARDS THAT PAY OUR MINIMUM WAGE

HAVE SPRUNG FOR THE PROCEEDINGS THIS EVENING.

THEIR WAY OF SAYING THANKS FOR DOING A GOOD JOB.

LADS...

KEEP FOOLING 'EM.

GO AHEAD AND OPEN IT.

DID YOU MANAGE TO FIT AN ENTIRE SECURITY SYSTEM

IN HERE THIS TIME, OR MAYBE JUST A SHOT GUN?

LOOK AND SEE.

YOU KNOW, I TOOK THE REVOLVER BACK.

THERE'S NO WAY I WOULD EVER USE THAT THING.

IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY,

WOULD YOU GET ON WITH IT?

[GASPING]

DAD, IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

THANK YOU.

HEH HEH HEH, AS A POLICE OFFICER I CAN TELL YOU,

MACE IS EFFECTIVE UP TO SIX FEET AWAY.

HOW THE HELL'S MY GIRL DOING, ANYWAY? YOU DOING OK?

THE USUAL, I GUESS.

STUDYING A LOT.

YOU GOING OUT? SEEING PEOPLE?

MM-HMM.

YOU KNOW, SARA...

WHEN ALL YOUR FRIENDS WENT AWAY FOR UNIVERSITY

AND YOU DECIDED TO ENROLL HERE,

I THOUGHT, WELL, MAYBE IT WAS FOR THE BEST.

AFTER ALL YOU'D BEEN THROUGH,

IT WOULD GIVE YOU SOME...

CONTINUITY.

THEN YOUR GRADES STARTED TO SLIP,

AND I THOUGHT, WELL, THAT'S NATURAL.

BUT TO JUST SIT AT HOME, WATCH THE WORLD SLIP BY--

DAD...

YOU HAVE GOT SO MUCH.

A MAN IS RUNNING LATE FOR WORK ONE DAY.

IN HIS RUSH HE FORGETS TO GRAB HIS UMBRELLA AND HIS RAIN COAT,

BUT HE STILL MANAGES NOT TO GET WET.

HOW?

'CAUSE IT NEVER RAINED.

AHH...

I'M ASSUMING YOU HAVE A POINT.

YOU ALWAYS WANT ME TO BE

SO PREPARED AGAINST FAILURE...

BURGLARY.

YOU HAVE TO LET ME LIVE MY LIFE THOUGH...

FIND MY OWN ANSWERS.

SO, WHILE YOU'RE LOOKING, YOU COULD COME OVER TOMORROW NIGHT

AND SEE ME AND LEA.

WE COULD GO TO THE MOVIES.

GET REAL COZY AND PLAY HAPPY FAMILY?

THANKS, BUT I'LL PASS.

SARA.

I DON'T NEED A REPLACEMENT CAREGIVER, DAD.

YOU MARRIED HER, NOT ME.

I'VE GOT AN EARLY START TOMORROW. I SHOULD JUST GO.

SARA...

YOUR REAL PRESENT.

THIS MOM'S?

YEAH.

IT'S GOOD TO LOOK FOR ANSWERS,

BUT, SOMETIMES, YOU LOOK TOO HARD,

YOU LOSE THE ONES YOU ALREADY HAVE.

I'M OK.

THE CURSE OF HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS

IS THAT IT LONGS TO KNOW ONLY THAT WHICH IS UNKNOWABLE.

FOR ALL OUR PHILOSOPHIZING...

CAN THE MEANING OF LIFE

EVER TRULY BE UNDERSTOOD?

WITH EXAMS ONLY TWO WEEKS AWAY,

LET US HOPE FOR YOUR SAKES

THAT AT LEAST SOME OF IT CAN.

LOOK, CURRAN...

IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN, OK?

NOT HERE...

NOT ON A PLANE, NOT ON A TRAIN.

[GIGGLING]

I HAVE MY SECRETS, TOO.

[CHUCKLING]

Vern: YOU EVER HEAR STORIES ON TV SOMETIMES

THAT DON'T MAKE ANY SENSE?

MAYBE A TRAIN DERAILS FOR NO REASON --

AN UNEXPLAINED FIRE BREAKS OUT SOMEWHERE...

YOU KNOW, A MYSTERY.

A FEW YEARS AGO, POLICE FOUND OUT

ABOUT THIS INVITATION THAT WAS BEING SENT AROUND:

SOME PEOPLE GOT IT IN THE MAIL,

OR ON THEIR COMPUTER...

EVEN PAINTED ON THE SIDE OF THEIR HOUSE.

THE INVITATION WAS A RIDDLE.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

ALL I KNOW IS THE ANSWER LED YOU

TO AN ABANDONED BUILDING SOMEWHERE IN THE CITY.

IF YOU COULD WORK OUT WHERE IT WAS,

THEN YOU BECAME PART OF A GAME,

AND THE RULES WERE SIMPLE.

YOU BEGIN RECEIVING RIDDLES--

ANONYMOUS ONES.

ONCE YOU SOLVED THEM,

ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS RETURN TO THE BUILDING

AND WRITE THE ANSWER ON THE WALL.

IF YOU GOT A CERTAIN NUMBER OF THEM RIGHT,

THEN ONE DAY YOU'D BE SHOWN THE DESIGN.

AH, IT'S THIS IDEA RIDDLE FREAKS ARE INTO.

YOU KNOW, THAT ALL THOSE UNEXPLAINABLE EVENTS OUT THERE

THAT NO ONE CAN MAKE ANY SENSE OUT OF,

THEY'RE ALL JUST PART OF ONE BIG RIDDLE

WE DON'T UNDERSTAND.

WELL, ACCORDING TO THE GAME, IF YOU PLAY IT LONG ENOUGH,

ONE DAY YOU GET A CHANCE TO SEE

THE ANSWER TO THAT RIDDLE.

THIS...

WAS THE CALLING CARD OF THE GAME.

YOU WANT TO TELL ME WHERE YOU GOT IT FROM?

YOU REALLY DON'T WANT TO GET INVOLVED.

UH, JUST A FRIEND. IT WAS A JOKE.

FUNNY KIND OF JOKE.

YEAH, FUNNY KIND OF GUY, BELIEVE ME.

SO, WHAT HAPPENED?

YOU SAID THE COPS FOUND OUT ABOUT IT.

YEAH, THAT WOMAN A FEW YEARS AGO

TRIED TO DROWN THAT BOY IN THE LAKE--

IT WAS ALL OVER THE NEWS.

EMILY GRAY?

YEAH--WHEN THE COPS QUESTIONED HER ABOUT IT,

ALL SHE WOULD SAY WAS THAT IT WAS PART OF THE DESIGN.

YOU'RE JOKING ME.

NO, YOUR FRIEND IS JOKING, REMEMBER?

I'M JUST HITTING ON YOU.

WHEN 34 YEAR OLD EMILY GRAY

ATTEMPTED TO DROWN HER NEIGHBOUR'S CHILD

IN THE CITY HARBOUR LAST YEAR,

ALL OF TORONTO WAS LEFT IN A STATE OF SHOCK.

TONIGHT, IN AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW,

WE GET A CHANCE TO SPEAK WITH EMILY

FOR THE FIRST TIME.

[FAST FORWARDING]

Interviewer: HE WAS JUST A LITTLE BOY,

DENNIS REVENI, 12 YEARS OLD.

WHY DID YOU TRY TO KILL HIM?

A CYCLONE HITS A TROPICAL ISLAND,

KILLS 45 PEOPLE...

A TRAIN DERAILS IN KOREA...

THE BRAKES FAIL ON A SCHOOL BUS IN CALGARY.

WHY?

WHAT REASONS ARE THERE FOR ANYTHING?

Interviewer: NEAR YOUR HOUSE, POLICE FOUND AN ABANDONED BUILDING

WITH WORDS SPRAY PAINTED ALL OVER THE WALLS.

DID YOU TRY TO MURDER THIS BOY AS...

PART OF SOME GAME?

Emily: IT WAS ALL PART OF THE DESIGN.

WHEN HE LOOKS IN THE MIRROR,

HE KNOWS.

I NEVER SINNED.

WHEN IT'S AJAR.

[TRAIN RUMBLING]

"WHAT HAS KEYS, BUT NO LOCK?

SPACE, BUT NO ROOM?"

"YOU CAN ENTER, BUT NEVER GO IN."

"YOU CAN ENTER, BUT NEVER GO IN."

A KEYBOARD.

[BANGING]

HELLO?

[BANGING]

HELLO?

[TRAIN RUMBLING]

[TIRES SCREECHING]

SARA, I JUST HEARD.

WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON? SOMEONE CHASED YOU?

IT WAS THE CLEANER. HE THOUGHT I WAS STEALING.

I THOUGHT...

I OVERREACTED.

Man: MISS NOVAK...

I THINK WE FOUND WHAT SCARED YOU, MA'AM.

IT WAS IN THE COMPUTER-- THE SOURCE OF THE IMAGES.

IMAGES?

IT'S NOTHING. A PRACTICAL JOKE, HA.

SARA, WAS THIS HARASSMENT?

DAD.

I THINK WE SHOULD FILE A REPORT, HUH?

DAD, LISTEN...

I AM FINE...

REALLY.

WELL, AT LEAST LET ME GIVE YOU A RIDE HOME, HUH?

OH, GOD.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT, DEAR?

I, UM...

I HAVE A STUDY THING. I FORGOT.

NOW? YEAH. IN THE LIBRARY.

I'VE GOT TO GO, OK? I'LL CALL YOU.

OH, SARA. SARA!

[CLINKING]

[CLINKING]

[MUSIC PLAYING ON STUDENT'S WALKMAN]

EXCUSE ME?

SARA.

CURRAN'S FRIEND, RIGHT?

YEAH. DO YOU KNOW WHERE HE IS?

I NEED TO TALK TO HIM.

SO, THE RUMOURS ARE TRUE, I TAKE IT?

YOU'RE GOING THROUGH

A YOUNGER GUY THING-- I'VE BEEN THERE.

LOOK, I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'VE HEARD.

I JUST NEED TO ASK CURRAN A QUESTION.

RIGHT.

HE WAS AT THE CHEZ M.

MY WORK. CURRAN DROPPED BY LAST NIGHT.

I HAVEN'T SEEN HIM SINCE.

YOU KNOW, NOW YOU'RE TRYING A FEW NEW THINGS OUT,

MAYBE YOU COULD DROP BY, TOO, SOMETIME.

I COULD SHOW YOU A FEW TRICKS.

WE'VE ALL GOT OUR SECRETS, HONEY.

WHY DID YOU GIVE THIS TO ME, CURRAN?

IF YOU SAW ME, THEN I SAW YOU.

OK, CURRAN, WHAT'S YOUR GAME?

"I KNOW WHERE YOU GO WHEN YOU CATCH THE TRAIN,"

WHAT'S UP, MAN?

JUST THINKING ABOUT THAT SHIT

WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THE OTHER DAY.

YOU KNOW, LIFE AND SHIT.

YEAH, WELL, UH, MEANING IS WHAT

YOU MAKE IT.

IT'S ALL IN YOUR HEAD.

I KNOW, I KNOW, AND THAT IS WHY...

I'VE COME UP WITH A LITTLE SOMETHING:

YEAH, A RIDDLE THAT HAS MEANING

IF YOU LOOK AT IT JUST THE RIGHT WAY.

OK.

GO.

WHAT'S A GHOST'S FAVOURITE COLOR?

BOO.

YEAH.

OH, HA-HA.

I KNOW, I KNOW, BUT THINK ABOUT IT.

OK, THINK ABOUT IT, BECAUSE IF THAT'S TRUE...

THEN WHAT WOULD BE A GHOST'S

FAVOURITE THING TO WEAR?

BOO JEANS, DUDE.

[LAUGHING]

I KNOW, THAT'S PRETTY FOR REAL.

YEAH.

LOOK, UM...

I GOTTA GRAB SOME STUFF FROM THE BACK.

YEAH, OK.

I'M GLAD HE GOT THAT ON TAPE.

ANCIENT RIDDLES.

"RIDDLES OF THE MIND."

"RIDDLES FOR THE SPIDER."

"WHAT HAS RIVERS, BUT NO WATER,"

"FORESTS, BUT NO TREES,"

"CITIES, BUT NO BUILDINGS?"

FINE.

A MAP.

A MAP.

[BEEPING]

"FIND ROMEO'S GIRL...

AND THE WORD OF FEAR"

"WILL THEN BE HERE."

CURRAN?

CURRAN?

OK, SO YOU KNOW WHERE I GO WHEN I CATCH THE TRAIN.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

IT'S JUST A GAME:

NO BIG DEAL.

CURRAN.

CURRAN?

CURRAN.

SARA?

SARA, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

OH, FUCK.

SARA...

COME ON.

SARA, NO: SARA, STOP!

THE POLICE. WE HAVE TO CALL THEM.

NO, WE CAN'T CALL THE POLICE.

HE'S DEAD, VERN--

SARA! YOU WERE PLAYING THE GAME.

THAT'S WHAT YOU WERE DOING HERE, RIGHT?

THEN WE CAN'T GO TO THE COPS.

WE HAVE TO...

SOMEONE IS SETTING US UP FOR THIS, DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!

NOW GET IN THE TRUCK.

GO HOME.

WE'LL MEET TOMORROW,

GO HOME.

GO HOME.

[ALARM BEEPING]

A MAN LIES DEAD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DESERT.

ALL HE HAS WITH HIM

IS AN UNOPENED PACKAGE.

THE UNOPENED PACKAGE EXPLAINS HIS DEATH.

WHAT'S IN THE PACKAGE?

WHAT ARE YOU

MUMBLING ABOUT IN HERE?

NINE ACROSS.

UNOPENED PACKAGE EXPLAINS A MAN'S DEATH?

BING. PARACHUTE.

OHH...

I GOT TO GET TO WORK.

OH, HONEY-- DO ME A FAVOUR, WOULD YOU, HMM?

SOME OF SARA'S MAIL CAME HERE--

I THOUGHT IF YOU RETURNED IT TO HER,

MIGHT BE AN EXCUSE TO POP IN, SAY HI.

YOU NEVER GIVE UP, DO YOU?

HUH?OH, FOR GOD'S SAKES, JEFF,

SHE TREATS ME LIKE A RASH.

THAT'S NOT TRUE, LEA.

ISN'T IT?

[DOOR BELL RINGING]

TOM?

SORRY TO BOTHER YOU, BOSS.

THERE'S BEEN A SITUATION.

YOU LIED.

I'D NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE.

YOU WERE PLAYING THE GAME, SARA.

DON'T YOU THINK THAT'S CLOSE ENOUGH?

YESTERDAY, SOMEONE LEFT A NICE, LITTLE MESSAGE

FOR ME ON ONE OF MY WINDOWS.

AT THE OTHER END OF IT ALL WAS YOU...

AND A CORPSE.

NOW I MIGHT BE A LITTLE SLOW, HERE,

BUT WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?

ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO, MY CAR WOULDN'T START.

I WAS RUNNING LATE, SO I CAUGHT THE SUBWAY.

IT WAS JUST LIKE YOU SAID, VERN.

WRITTEN BY THE TRACKS-- THIS RIDDLE.

I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS.

I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS FROM YOU,

SO I ANSWERED IT.

THE ANSWER LED ME TO THE ABANDONED BUILDING.

WHEN I GOT THERE, THE RULES TO THE GAME

WERE SPRAY-PAINTED ON THE FLOOR.

THEY WERE EASY.

WRITE YOUR ANSWER TO THE SUBWAY RIDDLE

ON THE WALL OF THE BUILDING, THAT WAS IT.

THEN ONE DAY, MAYBE AFTER ONE RIDDLE OR A HUNDRED...

YOU WOULD FINALLY GET TO SEE IT.

THE REASON BEHIND EVERYTHING WE DON'T UNDERSTAND,

YOU WOULD UNDERSTAND SOMEHOW.

SO I DID IT.

I WENT BACK TO THE SUBWAY AND THEY WERE THERE, AND--

YOU ANSWERED THEM.

AND YOU HAD NO IDEA WHO THEY WERE FROM?

REAL GOOD, SARA.

THAT'S REAL GOOD.

I DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING WOULD HAPPEN.

WHAT DO WE DO NOW?

WE?

LOOK--I TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS, OK?

REALLY, I MEAN, THIS WHOLE TIME

I WAS THINKING YOU WERE JUST THIS CHICK,

INTO HER INTELLECTUAL THING, BUT YOU KNOW, NORMAL.

TURNS OUT, YOU'RE A PSYCHO.

OH, SPARE ME THE MISS NAIVE ACT.

I SAW THE BODY, TOO, REMEMBER?

WHAT?

YOU THINK I DID IT?

I FOUND HIM LIKE THAT.

OH, YEAH. OUT OF THE BLUE. THERE HE WAS.

I WAS PLAYING THE GAME, I WAS--

ANSWERING RIDDLES IN THE SUBWAY --

CRAWLING AROUND IN THE DARK,

YOU SAID...

WHAT YOU DIDN'T SAY WAS WHY.

COME ON, SARA.

GOOD LOOKING, EDUCATED GIRL LIKE YOU.

I BET THE BOYS ARE LINING UP A MILE LONG

FOR THEIR PIECE OF WHITE BREAD.

BUT YOU DECIDED TO COME DOWN HERE INSTEAD.

SLUM IT WITH THE LIKES OF ME--

PLAY YOUR LITTLE MIND GAMES--

WELL, SOMETHING DOESN'T SMELL QUITE RIGHT--

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?

WHY ARE YOU PLAYING THIS THING?

WHY ARE YOU PLAYING THE GAME?

I WAS IN A CAR CRASH, OK?

MY MOTHER WAS DRIVING.

IT KILLED HER. I WAS THROWN CLEAR.

IF THERE WAS A REASON, A DESIGN,

I GUESS I JUST WANTED TO KNOW WHAT IT WAS.

SARA, IT'S JUST A GAME. IT'S NOT REAL.

WHAT IS A GAME, VERN?

SOMETHING WHERE YOU HAVE TO GIVE THE PIECES BACK

ONCE YOUR TIME'S UP.

WELL, GUESS WHAT?

THAT MEANS IT'S ALL A GAME--

LIFE, EVERYTHING-- ONE BIG GAME.

WE HAVE TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THIS THING...

WHO ELSE IS PLAYING IT.

ANY IDEA WHERE TO START?

Sara: CURRAN'S FRIEND SAW HIM BEFORE HE WAS KILLED.

SHE WORKS HERE.

NOVAK, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?

WHO'S HE?

WELL, YOU'RE THE ONE

WHO KNOWS ALL ABOUT MY SECRETS--

WHY DON'T YOU TELL ME?

"EVERYONE'S GOT SECRETS,"

"HONEY"--REMEMBER?

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

YOU AND CURRAN HAD SOMETHING GOING ON--

YOUR LITTLE SWINGERS THING.

NOW YOU'RE GOING TO TELL ME ABOUT THE REST OF IT.

WHAT'S MY SECRET, MARIE?

IF YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT WHAT CURRAN SAID,

HE TOLD ME YOU WERE A STRIPPER.

OK...

FOR ANOTHER BAR AROUND HERE.

SOMEONE GAVE HIM THIS CARD.

SOME KIND OF VIP PASS?

Vern: WAS THIS IT?

WHAT ARE YOU? HER PIMP OR SOMETHING?

A STRIPPER?

ROMEO'S GIRL-- THE PLACE USED TO BE

A STRIP BAR BEFORE IT WAS ABANDONED.

SO WHO WAS THE PERSON WHO GAVE HIM THE CARD?

I DON'T KNOW. HE JUST SAID SOME GUY.

JUST "SOME GUY"-- NOTHING ELSE?

ALL HE SAID IS HE HAD BEEN GIVEN THE VIP PASS

FOR A CLUB AND SOME KIND OF PASSWORD:

"I NEVER SINNED."

YOU KNOW...

YOU SAY THE PASSWORD,

YOU GET THE SPECIAL TREATMENT.

"I NEVER SINNED?"

YOU'VE HEARD IT BEFORE?

Interviewer: HE WAS JUST A LITTLE BOY.

DENNIS REVENI,

12 YEARS OLD.

WHY DID YOU

TRY TO KILL HIM?

WHEN HE LOOKS IN THE MIRROR...

HE KNOWS...

I NEVER SINNED.

THAT'S ONE VERY MIXED UP LADY.

SOMETHING HAPPENED TO HER, VERN.

STRAIGHT A'S THROUGH COLLEGE,

A GOOD JOB AND A FAMILY --

SHE WAS PLAYING THIS THING AND SHE WENT CRAZY.

WELL, LET'S SAY SOMETHING DID HAPPEN TO HER--

SOME KIND OF CULT THING MAYBE.

WE'VE GOT WORSE THINGS TO WORRY ABOUT HERE.

SOMEONE WANTED US TO FIND THAT BODY FOR A REASON.

WELL, ACCORDING TO HER PUBLIC ACCESS FILE,

EMILY GRAY WAS RELEASED FROM AN ASYLUM

FOR THE CRIMINALLY INSANE LAST YEAR.

THEY KEEP HER IN A HALFWAY HOUSE

JUST OUTSIDE TORONTO NOW.

WHATEVER'S HAPPENING...

IT AIN'T OVER.

[POLICE RADIO CROSSTALK]

IN BREAKING NEWS, PARTS OF TORONTO UNIVERSITY

ARE BEING SEALED OFF TODAY

AS POLICE INVESTIGATE A MURDER.

KNOWN FOR THE ATTEMPTED DROWNING

IN 1992, OF A SMALL BOY,

EMILY GRAY, THIS MORNING,

HAS CONFESSED TO KILLING

A STUDENT FROM THE LOCAL UNIVERSITY.

WHY'D YOU DO IT, EMILY?

IT WAS ALL PART OF THE DESIGN.

POLICE ARE REFUSING ALL COMMENT

UNTIL A PSYCHIATRIC ASSESSMENT HAS BEEN MADE.

STILL HASN'T SAID ANYTHING?

OTHER THAN HER

INITIAL STATEMENT, NO.

AND OF COURSE, HER REQUEST

TO SEE YOU.

WE FOUND THE BODY IN THE BUSHES

BY THE LIBRARY.

IT HAD BEEN DRAGGED THERE FROM SOMEPLACE ELSE.

IT'S BEEN IDENTIFIED.

THE VICTIM IS WHO SHE CLAIMS.

JEREMY CURRAN.

"IT WAS ALL PART OF THE DESIGN".

IN OTHER WORDS,

HER WHEEL'S SPINNING,

BUT THE HAMSTER'S DEAD.

WHAT ABOUT HER LAWYER?

HE'S GIVEN CLEARANCE FOR YOU TO TALK TO HER.

HE THINKS MAYBE SHE'S SEEN YOU ON TV BEFORE--

IT'S MAKING SOME KIND OF CONNECTION.

OK. TOM, LET'S GET A COPY

OF HER CHARACTER PROFILE.

SHE PHONED IN INITIALLY, RIGHT?

LET'S GET A RECORDING OF THAT, TOO.

DAMNED IF I KNOW WHY SHE WANTS

TO TALK TO ME.

BUT I PROMISE YOU THIS...

SHE WON'T ASK TWICE.

I KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING.

THE BUDDHIST MONKS KNEW IT ALL ALONG.

WHAT IS THE SOUND OF ONE HAND CLAPPING?

WHERE DOES THE ROOM GO ONCE YOU LEAVE IT?

THEY BELIEVED, ONCE YOU OPENED YOURSELF UP TO ENIGMAS,

YOU BEGAN TO SEE THE WORLD DIFFERENTLY.

YOU KNOW WHO THE FIGURE ON THIS CARD IS?

NEITHER DID I, SO, I DID SOME RESEARCH.

NEMESIS?

IT'S THE CLOSEST TRANSLATION

THEY FOUND FOR HIS NAME.

HE WAS AN INDIAN MONK

FROM AROUND 400 BC--

HE BROKE AWAY FROM HIS MONASTERY

TO STUDY THE WAY OF ENIGMAS.

TWO YEARS LATER, HE WAS EXECUTED FOR MURDER.

WANT TO KNOW HOW THEY CAUGHT HIM?

HE CONFESSED:

EMILY GRAY.

NEMESIS CLAIMED THAT JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHER MYSTERIES OF LIFE,

THE MURDERER AND HIS CONFESSION

COULD BE UNDERSTOOD THROUGH

THE CONTEMPLATION OF RIDDLES.

IN THE YEARS AFTER HIS DEATH,

A GAME WAS DEVELOPED BY HIS FOLLOWERS.

THE PLAYERS SOLVED RIDDLES

AND WROTE THEIR ANSWERS ON THE TEMPLE OF PRAYER.

ONE DAY, IF THEY WERE DILIGENT,

IT WAS SAID THEY WOULD GO

TO WRITE THEIR ANSWERS ON THE WALL,

ONLY THIS TIME THEY WOULD FIND

A RIDDLE WAITING THERE INSTEAD.

THE FINAL ENIGMA.

AND IF THEY SOLVED IT...

THEY WOULD SEE THE DESIGN.

THOSE THAT SAW THE DESIGN

WOULD THEN LEAVE MORE RIDDLES FOR OTHERS TO FOLLOW.

SO, EMILY GRAY TRIES TO DROWN THAT BOY

AFTER SHE PLAYS THE GAME.

IF SHE HAD DROWNED THE BOY,

MY GUESS IS SHE WOULD HAVE CONFESSED.

BUT SHE FAILS, SO THEY LOCK HER UP.

AND THEY FINALLY LET HER OUT,

SHE TRIES AGAIN.

THIS TIME SHE DOES KILL SOMEONE--

YOUR FRIEND--

AND THEN CONFESSES.

JUST LIKE NEMESIS.

VERN, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

WHAT I SHOULD'VE DONE FROM THE START.

WHAT, YOU MEAN THE POLICE?

FIRST YOU WANT TO LEAVE THEM OUT OF IT,

THEN WHEN SOMEONE CONFESSES,

YOU WANT TO GET INVOLVED?

SARA, IF YOU HADN'T NOTICED,

SOMETHING'S NOT QUITE RIGHT HERE.

ACCORDING TO YOUR STRIPPER FRIEND,

SOMEONE TRICKED CURRAN INTO

GOING DOWN TO THAT BUILDING.

IT WASN'T EMILY GRAY.

IT WAS A MAN-- SOMEONE YOU KNOW.

THINK ABOUT IT.

THE RIDDLE YOU FOUND IN THE SUBWAY...

THAT WASN'T RANDOM.

THEY HAD TO KNOW WHO YOU WERE, WHAT YOU WERE INTO.

THEY EVEN KNEW ABOUT ME, RIGHT?

THEY LEFT THE RIDDLE AT THE STORE.

WHATEVER'S GOING ON HERE,

IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT EMILY GRAY.

WE CAN'T GO TO THE COPS.

YEAH? WELL, WATCH ME.

VERN...

WHAT IF IT'S REAL?

WHAT IF THERE'S SOMETHING HAPPENING

THAT WE CAN'T EXPLAIN?

DON'T YOU WANT TO KNOW THE ANSWERS?

YOU JUST DON'T GET IT, DO YOU?

YOUR MOTHER DIED-- I'M SORRY.

THAT'S MESSED UP.

BUT IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR SOME KIND

OF MAGIC POTION FOR YOUR PROBLEMS

JUST 'CAUSE YOU'VE HAD A ROUGH RIDE, WELL, GUESS WHAT?

YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE.

TRY WATCHING TWO OF YOUR FRIENDS

DIE IN A CONSTRUCTION FIRE THAT WAS YOUR FAULT.

TRY GETTING OVER THAT IN A HURRY.

WE'VE WITHHELD EVIDENCE OF A MURDER HERE.

IF WE DON'T TELL THE COPS WHAT HAPPENED,

THEN OUR CREDIBILITY IS GONE,

AND THAT'S ALL WE'VE GOT RIGHT NOW.

WE'VE GOT NOTHING BUT OUR WORD HERE.

"FIND ROMEO'S GIRL, AND THE WORD OF FEAR WILL THEN BE HERE."

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

NOTHING.

MAYBE YOU'RE RIGHT.

MAYBE WE SHOULDN'T GO TO THE COPS. GO HOME.

GET RID OF ANYTHING TO DO WITH RIDDLES--

ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE GAME.

YOU THINK WE CAN COVER THIS UP?

JUST OUR PART IN IT.

GET RID OF EVERYTHING

THAT CONNECTS YOU TO THIS THING.

WHAT ABOUT YOU?

I GOT TO CHECK SOMETHING FIRST.

HI, EMILY.

DIDN'T NEED TO BE LIKE THIS, DID IT?

EMILY GRAY...

FIRST CLASS HONOURS, HIGH SCHOOL; GRADUATED, VANCOUVER.

EVERYTHING SEEMS TO HAVE GONE ALONG SWIMMINGLY UNTIL 1995,

THEN 1996...WOW!

YOU TRY TO DROWN A LITTLE BOY IN THE LAKE...

OUT OF THE BLUE.

YOU SERVE FIVE YEARS FOR THAT.

YOU'RE ONLY OUT FOR ONE,

AND THEN THIS MESS.

YOU WANT TO TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON?

I MEAN, YOU DO, RIGHT?

THAT'S WHY YOU CONFESSED.

I'M ALL EARS, EMILY.

YOU GOT SOMETHING WORTH SAYING, LETS HEAR IT.

WHAT THE HELL...HAPPENED?

WHAT IF I TOLD YOU THAT

I KNOW THE MEANING OF LIFE?

AND THAT EVERY LEAF THAT FALLS,

EVERY BEE YOU CRUSH UNDER FOOT,

IT'S ALL PART OF A DESIGN...

SO COMPLEX IT LOOKS LIKE CHAOS,

BUT IT'S NOT.

IS THERE A SANTA CLAUS, TOO?

OK, YOU GOT ME.

WHAT'S THE DESIGN?

DESCRIBE THE COLOUR RED.

SOME THINGS YOU HAVE TO SEE FOR YOURSELF.

RIGHT...

SO, HOW DO I SEE THIS DESIGN?

LOOK, EMILY, IF YOU WANT SOMEONE

WHO'S GOING TO PANT AND BEG

FOR WHAT'S GOING ON IN YOUR HEAD,

YOU GOT THE WRONG GUY.

EITHER YOU TELL ME WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT,

OR I'M OUT OF HERE.

RIGHT?

WHAT'S THE DESIGN?

OK.

THAT JUST ABOUT COVERS IT.

GOOD LUCK WITH THE PADDED CELL.

HAVE YOU FIGURED OUT

WHY IT HAPPENED YET?

YOUR POOR WIFE.

THREE DAYS IN THE HOSPITAL,

HER RIB CAGE CRUSHED

BY THE STEERING WHEEL.

YOU HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE

TO MAKE ANY SENSE OUT OF IT, HAVE YOU?

WHO TOLD YOU THAT?

LOOK...

JUST BECAUSE SOMEHOW YOU GOT A HOLD OF MY FILE,

DOESN'T MEAN TO SAY I'M GOING TO ROLL OVER AND PLAY DEAD.

I HATE TO BE THE ONE TO TELL YOU THIS, LADY,

BUT THERE IS NO DESIGN-- YOU'RE CRAZY.

AM I?

BECAUSE I TRIED TO DROWN A BOY?

BECAUSE I KILLED A STUDENT?

IS THAT SO WRONG?

IS AN EARTHQUAKE WRONG WHEN IT KILLS?

OR A CAR?

OR A FLIGHT OF STAIRS?

WHY DON'T YOU JUST ADMIT IT?

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY ANYTHING HAPPENS,

AND YOU NEVER WILL.

CONGRATULATIONS, EMILY-- YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE

IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD WHO KNOWS THE DESIGN.

NOT THE ONLY ONE, JEFF.

THERE ARE MANY OF US.

WHEN I LOOK IN THE MIRROR,

I KNOW HIS NAME.

ANOTHER WHO HAS SEEN THE DESIGN AS I HAVE.

LOOK AT IT IN THE MIRROR.

LOOK AT WHAT?

ASK YOUR DAUGHTER.

[RINGING]

HELLO?

SARA...I NEED YOU TO LISTEN TO ME.

DAD?

DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT A WOMAN

NAMED EMILY GRAY?

WHAT?

SHE CLAIMS YOU KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT A DESIGN.

WHEN SHE LOOKS IN THE MIRROR,

SHE SAYS SHE SEES A NAME.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS?

DOES THIS MEAN ANYTHING TO YOU, SARA?

YES.

LISTEN,

I WANT YOU TO GO GET INTO YOUR CAR AND GO TO THE HOUSE.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND? I WANT YOU TO GO SOMEWHERE SAFE.

SARA?

UH, YEAH, UM...YEAH, I'LL GO.

IT'LL BE OK. I'LL SEE YOU SOON.

DENNIS REVENI.

Interviewer: HE WAS JUST A LITTLE BOY,

DENNIS REVENI,

12 YEARS OLD--

WHY DID YOU TRY TO KILL HIM?

WHEN HE LOOKS IN THE MIRROR,

HE KNOWS:

I NEVER SINNED.

I'M HERE.

SO, WHERE'S THE WORD OF FEAR?

[BEEPING]

ALL RIGHT, I'M HERE.

THIS IS WHAT YOU WANTED, RIGHT?

I'M SUPPOSED TO COME HERE WITH THE ANSWER.

WELL, HERE I AM.

YOU WIN, MAN.

I THOUGHT YOU WERE THE VILLAGE IDIOT, OK?

YOU WIN, MAN.

WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?

[BANGING]

YOU WANT TO KILL ME, HMM?

IS THAT IT? YOU WANT TO KILL ME, TOO, YOU GHOST?

A RIDDLE.

HA..."WHAT EATS TO LIVE..."

"BUT NEVER DRINKS?"

[THUDDING]

YOU WANT ME TO ANSWER IT?

IS THAT IT?

YOU WANT ME TO COME DOWN HERE, AND WRITE THE ANSWER

TO YOUR RIDDLE ON THE WALL:

"WHAT EATS TO LIVE"

"BUT NEVER DRINKS?"

"WHAT EATS TO LIVE"

"BUT NEVER DRINKS?"

[GASPING]

SORRY.

I WAS JUST THIS LITTLE BOY

AND I WAS PLAYING BY THE WATER,

AND SHE CAME UP

AND SHE TRIED TO PUSH ME UNDER.

SHE TRIED TO KILL ME...

AND I NEVER UNDERSTOOD WHY.

UNTIL I FOUND THIS RIDDLE.

WHEN I ANSWERED IT, I SUDDENLY KNEW.

IT'S ALL PART OF THE DESIGN, SARA.

YOU UNDERSTAND? YOU KNOW, NO MATTER WHAT WE DO.

EMILY SHOWED ME. THERE'S NO RIGHT OR WRONG.

THERE'S ONLY THE DESIGN.

WE KILL BECAUSE THERE'S NO REASON NOT TO.

YOU CAN'T RUN AWAY FROM IT, SARA.

WE ALL HAVE A ROLE TO PLAY IN THIS.

NOW I KNOW MINE.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOURS IS?

AAAAAAGHH!!

YOU'LL SEE IT SOON.

[GUN FIRING] AHHH!

TOM, IS SHE OK?

WHOA, BOSS, BOSS, BOSS.

BOSS, JUST-- JUST GIVE HER A MINUTE.

WELL, WHAT HAPPENED?

A STREET KID ATTACKED HER.

WE'VE GOT TWO WITNESSES.

A STREET KID?

HE DIED 10 MINUTES AFTER WE GOT HERE--

THERE WAS A STRUGGLE. HE HAD A GUN.

WHO WAS HE?

THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO GET FROM HER NOW.

SARA, I NEED YOU

TO THINK REALLY CLEARLY RIGHT NOW.

I WANT YOU TO TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED.

I TOLD YOU, I WAS ATTACKED BY A GUNMAN.

HIS NAME WAS DENNIS REVENI.

WHAT WAS HE DOING HERE?

YOU KNEW WHO HE WAS.

SARA,

WHEN WE SEARCHED THE BODY,

WE FOUND THIS IN ONE OF THE POCKETS.

IT APPEARS HE KNEW WHO YOU WERE.

SARA, YOU OK?

BABY...

ON THE PHONE,

YOU SAID YOU KNEW SOMETHING ABOUT ALL OF THIS.

YOU'VE GOT TO HELP US NOW.

WHAT HAPPENED?

SARA, PLEASE.

YOU KNOW, HONEY,

WE MIGHT NEVER KNOW WHY MOM DIED.

BUT IF WE KNEW ALL THE ANSWERS,

WE WOULDN'T BE HUMAN.

MAYBE...

MAYBE NOT KNOWING THE ANSWERS

BUT GOING ON LIVING...

THAT'S WHAT LIFE IS ALL ABOUT.

TOM.

Tom: YEAH.

I'M GOING TO TAKE HER DOWN TO THE STATION MYSELF.

YOU OK? YOU WANT ME TO COME WITH YOU?

NO, WE'LL...BE OK.

SARA!

VERN?

VERN? ARE YOU IN HERE?

DO YOU KNOW THE ANSWERS, NOW?

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

IS THERE REALLY A DESIGN?

IT'S ALL PART OF THE DESIGN, SARA.
