00:03:55 >> Gentlemen of the Anaheim, 709th chapter of the Brown Bear Lodge,
00:04:00 we have a wonderful opportunity this afternoon.
00:04:03 For you see, the county of Orange has provided us with a chance to hear from and
00:04:07 put questions to an undercover narcotics agent from the Sheriff's Department
00:04:11 who is out there on our behalf fighting this awful substance D epidemic.
00:04:15 It's no secret we're living in a culture of addiction.
00:04:18 Nearly 20% of the population can now be classified as addicts.
00:04:22 And as far as anyone can tell, there is but one company that is working and
00:04:26 helping the situation.
00:04:28 That company is our sponsor, New Path.
00:04:32 >> [APPLAUSE]
00:04:38 >> And you will notice that you can barely see this man,
00:04:41 because he is wearing what is called a scramble suit.
00:04:44 The exact same suit he wears, and in fact must wear, during certain parts,
00:04:48 in fact most parts of his daily activities of law enforcement.
00:04:52 This man, whom we will call Fred, because that is the code name under which he
00:04:56 reports the information he gathers, once within the scramble suit,
00:05:00 cannot be detected by even the latest in voice and facial recognition technology.
00:05:04 The scramble suit itself is purportedly made up of approximately a million and
00:05:09 a half fraction representations of men, women, and children in every variant.
00:05:15 Making the wearer of a scramble suit the ultimate everyman.
00:05:19 >> This is terrible.
00:05:21 >> He looks, does he not, like a constantly shifting vague blur and nothing more.
00:05:25 Am I right?
00:05:26 >> [LAUGH]
00:05:27 >> Let's hear it for the vague blur.
00:05:29 >> [APPLAUSE]
00:05:38 >> If you saw me on the street without the suit on,
00:05:41 you'd probably say there goes a total dope fiend.
00:05:44 You'd feel aversion and walk away.
00:05:47 I don't look like you.
00:05:49 I can't afford to.
00:05:51 My life depends on it.
00:05:53 I'm not going to tell you first what I do as an undercover officer engaged in
00:05:57 tracking down dealers and the source of their illegal drugs in the streets of our
00:06:01 cities and corridors of our schools here in Orange County.
00:06:05 I'm going to tell you what I'm afraid of.
00:06:09 What I fear night and day is that our children,
00:06:12 your children and my children, I have two little ones.
00:06:17 Very little.
00:06:19 But not too little to be addicted.
00:06:22 Calculatedly addicted to substance D for profit by drug terrorists.
00:06:28 As many of you know, our military and their associates are actively engaged in
00:06:32 countries where it is believed the organic component of substance D,
00:06:37 a small, highly toxic flower, originates.
00:06:43 And while our troops are down there fighting for us,
00:06:46 it is up to each and every one of us here to do our part in eliminating the demand
00:06:52 for this drug.
00:06:54 It's important you as citizens continue to report all suspicious activity and
00:06:59 individuals.
00:07:01 For simply put, if there were no demand in our society,
00:07:05 there would be no market for these leeches to exploit.
00:07:09 [applause]
00:07:15 Each day this disease takes its toll on us.
00:07:18 And each day the flow of profits and where they go.
00:07:24 Uh.
00:07:27 Well, it isn't about the profits anyhow.
00:07:29 It's something else.
00:07:32 What did you see happen?
00:07:38 Like if you were a diabetic and you didn't have money for insulin.
00:07:41 Did you steal to get the money or just die?
00:07:43 I think you better go back to the prepared text there, Fred.
00:07:49 I forgot it.
00:07:50 I think I have a block against this shit.
00:07:53 Repeat after me, but make it sound casual.
00:07:56 The profits flow, we will soon--
00:08:03 And then retribution will swiftly follow.
00:08:05 At that moment I would not for the life of me want to be in their shoes.
00:08:08 Got it?
00:08:09 You know why I've got a block against this bullshit?
00:08:12 Because this is what gets people on drugs.
00:08:15 It's all so disgusting when I lurch off and become a user.
00:08:19 Come on, Fred, just say the shit and get it over with.
00:08:26 Um.
00:08:29 Anyway.
00:08:32 Substance D.
00:08:35 D.
00:08:37 D is for dumbness and despair and desertion.
00:08:41 The desertion of your friends from you, you from your friends.
00:08:46 Everyone from everyone.
00:08:48 Isolation and loneliness and hating and suspecting each other.
00:08:58 D is finally death.
00:09:02 Slow death.
00:09:05 From the head down.
00:09:11 Well.
00:09:13 That's it.
00:09:17 [applause]
00:09:25 Okay, let's eat.
00:09:26 [music]
00:09:42 All right, what's your name?
00:09:44 My name, man.
00:09:47 Oh, you don't know your name.
00:09:49 That's interesting.
00:09:51 Probable cause.
00:09:52 Out of the car, sir.
00:09:54 You have the right to remain silent until...
00:09:57 And anything you say can and will be used against you.
00:10:02 When you...
00:10:04 When...
00:10:06 Fuck this shit.
00:10:26 [sirens]
00:10:34 [music]
00:10:46 [door slams]
00:10:49 [music]
00:11:14 [door opens]
00:11:17 [door closes]
00:11:19 [music]
00:11:34 Hello?
00:11:35 Hey, how you doing?
00:11:37 I'm all right.
00:11:39 Anything wrong?
00:11:41 This fucker stole 50 bucks worth of shit from us today.
00:11:44 My boss said it was somehow my fault and it's coming out of my paycheck,
00:11:48 which I don't even think is legal.
00:11:51 I mean, can you legally do that?
00:11:54 Yeah, they can't do that.
00:11:56 At least I...
00:11:57 At least I'm not being held to account.
00:11:59 I'll check.
00:12:01 Hey, Donna.
00:12:02 Can I get anything from you?
00:12:04 Yeah, how much?
00:12:06 Ten.
00:12:08 Ten?
00:12:09 Yeah, I'm hurting really bad.
00:12:11 I'll pay you back later.
00:12:13 Yeah, okay.
00:12:15 Say, the day after tomorrow?
00:12:17 Sooner?
00:12:18 I'll come by later.
00:12:20 Like around 8?
00:12:21 Yeah.
00:12:22 I'll see you later.
00:12:25 Okay.
00:12:26 All right, bye.
00:12:27 Okay, bye.
00:12:29 See, all symptoms are purposeful, be they positive or negative.
00:12:34 See what I'm saying?
00:12:35 In this case, I wouldn't feel strangely about it
00:12:37 because the idea of turning yourself over to New Path for rehabilitation
00:12:40 is only naturally going to make you a little apprehensive,
00:12:43 but that's just a manifestation of the fear.
00:12:46 It's just the--
00:12:47 What's the "D" talking?
00:12:49 The first thing I hear when you go into the New Path,
00:12:52 what they do to you,
00:12:54 they cut your pectoral.
00:12:55 No, no, no, they can never get away with that.
00:12:57 You're kidding me?
00:12:58 Come on, that's an urban myth.
00:12:59 It's actually the spleen that's for a man to put in custody.
00:13:01 What?
00:13:02 Hey, how is everything?
00:13:04 Everything is super good.
00:13:05 I got a lot of problems nobody else has.
00:13:08 No, no, come on.
00:13:09 More people than you'd think, and more people each day.
00:13:11 This is a world getting progressively worse.
00:13:14 Can we not agree on that?
00:13:16 What's on dessert, maybe?
00:13:18 Would you like to maybe order some dessert?
00:13:19 Like what?
00:13:21 [groans]
00:13:23 Well, we have fresh strawberry pie and fresh peach pie
00:13:27 that we make here ourselves.
00:13:29 [groans]
00:13:32 No, we don't want any dessert.
00:13:35 All right.
00:13:36 Fucking fruit pies are for old ladies.
00:13:39 What do you think about the New Path?
00:13:41 Well, it doesn't matter what I think.
00:13:43 I kind of have to tip my hat to any entity
00:13:46 that could bring so much integrity to evil.
00:13:48 I mean, imagine, a seemingly voluntary privatized gulag
00:13:52 just managed to eliminate the meddling middlemen
00:13:54 of public accountability and free will
00:13:56 and wrapped it up in a little bow
00:13:57 and give it to the public like a gift.
00:13:59 I mean, come on, this is--
00:14:00 [imitates explosion]
00:14:03 This is awe-inspiring stuff.
00:14:06 I heard you have to grow cold turkey.
00:14:09 Cold turkey doesn't even apply to substance, D.
00:14:13 Unlike the legacy of inherited predisposition
00:14:17 to addictive behavior or substances,
00:14:19 this needs no genetic assistance.
00:14:22 There's no weekend warriors on the D.
00:14:24 You're either on it or you haven't tried it.
00:14:29 Well, I like it.
00:14:31 Yeah?
00:14:32 How many caps do you take per day?
00:14:35 [sighs]
00:14:37 Mm, very difficult to determine.
00:14:41 But not that many.
00:14:42 Well, like the old-school pharmacopia,
00:14:46 tolerance develops.
00:14:47 These visions of bugs,
00:14:49 they're just garden-variety psychosis,
00:14:50 but a clear indication that you've hurtled
00:14:53 over the initial fond and euphoric phase
00:14:55 and passed on to the next phase.
00:14:59 News from the guinea pig grapevine suggests
00:15:02 that whatever it is, we won't know
00:15:04 until it's way too late.
00:15:06 You see?
00:15:07 You see the royal canaries in the coal mine on this one?
00:15:10 I do think I have another source.
00:15:13 That Donna chick.
00:15:15 Bob's girl?
00:15:16 Mm-hmm, yeah.
00:15:17 Yeah, his girl.
00:15:18 Although I know for a fact he never gets in her pants.
00:15:21 Really?
00:15:22 [chuckles]
00:15:24 But he talks like he does?
00:15:26 Oh, yeah.
00:15:27 That's Bob Arcture.
00:15:28 He talks like he does many things.
00:15:30 It's not the same reference.
00:15:31 It's not the same thing.
00:15:33 Donna has an aversion to bodily contact,
00:15:36 and junkies lose their interest in sex, you realize,
00:15:39 due to an organ swelling up from vasoconstriction.
00:15:43 And I have observed in her
00:15:45 an inordinate failure of sexual arousal,
00:15:48 not just toward Bob Arcture,
00:15:51 but other males as well.
00:15:54 I can't believe she doesn't put up.
00:15:57 Well, she would, if she were handled right.
00:16:01 For instance, I could show you how to sleep with her
00:16:07 for less than $3.
00:16:09 [sighs]
00:16:11 I don't want to sleep with her.
00:16:13 I want to buy from her.
00:16:15 Donna does coke, right?
00:16:17 $3 doesn't get you a line of coke.
00:16:19 That's where you're wrong, pal.
00:16:22 [engine revving]
00:16:24 [tires screeching]
00:16:26 [engine revving]
00:16:28 [tires screeching]
00:16:30 [engine revving]
00:16:32 [tires screeching]

00:16:40 [tires screeching]
00:16:42 [engine revving]
00:16:44 [tires screeching]
00:16:46 [engine revving]
00:16:48 [tires screeching]
00:16:50 [engine revving]
00:16:52 [tires screeching]
00:16:54 [engine revving]
00:16:56 [tires screeching]
00:16:58 [engine revving]
00:17:00 [tires screeching]
00:17:02 [engine revving]
00:17:04 [tires screeching]
00:17:06 [engine revving]
00:17:08 What they've deliberately done is mix the cocaine with the oil
00:17:11 so that it cannot be extracted,
00:17:13 but my knowledge of chemistry is such
00:17:16 that I know precisely how to separate the oil from the cocaine.
00:17:21 Now, now I freeze it.
00:17:25 I cause the cocaine crystals to rise to the top
00:17:28 because they are lighter than the oil.
00:17:31 The terminal step, of course, I keep to myself,
00:17:33 but suffice to say it involves an intricate and methodological process.
00:17:37 The filtering.
00:17:39 How long is it gonna be in there?
00:17:42 It's about a half an hour.
00:17:45 You know, I've been thinking, Barris,
00:17:47 even if we do get a pure gram of cocaine out of this deal,
00:17:52 I don't want to use it on Donna.
00:17:54 I mean, you know, to get in her pants, that'd be like buying her--
00:17:56 No, it'd just be an exchange.
00:17:57 You give her a gift, and she gives you one.
00:17:59 [sneezes]
00:18:01 Besides, we're talking about Bob's girl here.
00:18:07 Um, and this is his house.
00:18:09 He's my friend.
00:18:10 He lets you and Lachman live here.
00:18:14 There's a great deal about Bob Arcter you're not aware of.
00:18:18 How did Newpath rig it where they're the one place in our entire country
00:18:28 that can't be scanned?
00:18:30 Well, the rest of us can be tracked 24 hours a day,
00:18:32 but no, not at Newpath.
00:18:34 Hey, that's their contract with the government.
00:18:37 But I think you're right.
00:18:39 It would be a good place for a dealer to hide.
00:18:41 Hmm.
00:18:43 What about, uh, Donna Hawthorne?
00:18:46 I'm systematically working up to her supplier.
00:18:50 The quantities I'm buying now are basically beyond her capacity.
00:18:54 She doesn't have enough front money to handle it,
00:18:56 so it's just a matter of time before she's hooking me up
00:18:58 with the next person up the ladder.
00:19:00 I think someday soon we'll have somebody who really knows something,
00:19:03 and they'll be worth busting.
00:19:05 What about, uh, Jim Barris and Ernie Lachman?
00:19:08 Same shit, nothing new.
00:19:10 What about, uh, Charles Frick and Robert Archer?
00:19:14 Up to pretty much the same old thing.
00:19:17 Even Archer?
00:19:19 Archer?
00:19:22 Yeah, he doesn't seem to be doing much.
00:19:25 Still working his nowhere, handy-breaking, tired job.
00:19:29 Drops a few caps of death cut with meth during the day.
00:19:33 I'm not so sure.
00:19:35 We just got a tip-in from an informant
00:19:37 that Archer has funds above and beyond what he gets from his little job.
00:19:42 And when we checked into it,
00:19:44 we found he wasn't even working there full-time.
00:19:47 Hmm.
00:19:48 Yeah.
00:19:50 Who's this informant?
00:19:52 We don't know.
00:19:54 Undoubtedly, it's a vengeance burn.
00:19:56 That's how these druggies are.
00:19:58 I mean, phoning in on each other every time they get pissed off.
00:20:01 Anyhow, as of now, I'm officially assigning you to observe Archer.
00:20:07 If we're ever going to get to the bottom of this,
00:20:10 I have a hunch it'll be through this guy.
00:20:12 So will that mean full-time viewer recording?
00:20:15 We got no choice.
00:20:17 We'll install a new holographic scanning system.
00:20:20 You'll just let us know when they're out of the house,
00:20:23 and we'll want storage and printout on everything.
00:20:26 [ grunts ]
00:20:29 Total, total, total, totally, total, total, total providence.
00:20:35 I am walking home. I find myself on the street.
00:20:38 I am rarely on, and look what I obtained for a mere $50.
00:20:42 What is it?
00:20:43 Oh, this would be an 18-speed bike of the all-terrain variety.
00:20:47 I noticed it in a neighbor's yard,
00:20:49 and I acquired as to its availability.
00:20:51 They had four of them.
00:20:52 So I made a cash offer of $50.
00:20:56 They acquiesced.
00:20:57 They actually threw in these lemon-yellow racing pants.
00:20:59 They actually even hoisted it over the fence for me.
00:21:01 Which I found to be very neighborly.
00:21:03 Well, that's weird. I didn't know you could get
00:21:05 an 18-speed bike nearly new for $50.
00:21:08 It's amazing what you can get for $50.
00:21:10 I'll give you 60 right now, no questions asked.
00:21:13 You know, this bike looks a lot like the bike
00:21:15 that this girl lives across the street from me had
00:21:17 that got ripped off about a month ago.
00:21:19 This bike could be hot.
00:21:21 They probably jacked it, these hoister frenziers.
00:21:24 Sure they did. I mean, if they've got four,
00:21:26 instilling it that cheap.
00:21:27 Right? You should at least show it to her
00:21:29 so she could see if it's hers.
00:21:31 Okay, I can do that, but this is a boy's bike, okay?
00:21:34 So it can't be, not to invalidate your intuition,
00:21:37 but it's not possible. Thank you.
00:21:39 Why do you say it's an 18-speed when it only has 9 gears?
00:21:43 Huh? What?
00:21:44 Yeah, yeah.
00:21:46 6 right here, 3 at the other end of the chain,
00:21:49 6 plus 3 equals 9.
00:21:52 It's a 9-speed bike.
00:21:53 Yeah, but even a 9-speed bike for $50,
00:21:56 you still got a good deal.
00:21:58 Okay, those guys told me it was 18-speeds.
00:22:00 I just got griefed. I just got--
00:22:02 Wait. Wait.
00:22:04 Now I count 8.
00:22:06 6 here, and then 2 in the front.
00:22:09 That makes 8.
00:22:10 What do you think happened to the missing gears?
00:22:12 Think? I know.
00:22:13 They were probably working on it,
00:22:15 these gypsy grifters, with improper tools
00:22:17 and no technical knowledge,
00:22:18 no understanding of reverse engineering,
00:22:20 and when they attempted to reassemble it,
00:22:21 they panicked, they got scared,
00:22:23 and they left 9 orphan gears.
00:22:24 They're just laying on the floor.
00:22:25 They're probably still there on the floor of the garage.
00:22:27 Let's just go rescue the orphan gears, dude!
00:22:30 Don't you see that that's part of the plan?
00:22:33 They're going to try to sell them to me,
00:22:35 not give them to me, as they rightfully should have,
00:22:37 as included in part of the original sale price.
00:22:40 Oh, my God, there's no telling what else they've...
00:22:43 If all of us go together,
00:22:45 oh, they'll give them back.
00:22:47 Oh, you bet they will.
00:22:48 Oh, you bet they will.
00:22:49 Let's just go as a team, okay?
00:22:51 Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:22:53 Are you sure there are only 9 gears on this bike?
00:22:56 8.
00:22:57 Okay, 8, 9, whatever.
00:22:59 Don't you think that before we go over
00:23:01 and accuse and start some shit,
00:23:03 we should find out for sure?
00:23:05 Absolutely right, Donna.
00:23:06 Who do we know who's in authority on this type of bike?
00:23:09 Oh!
00:23:10 Oh!
00:23:11 Get off me!
00:23:12 What?
00:23:13 Let me go!
00:23:14 We are all way too close to this.
00:23:18 There's only one thing we can do
00:23:20 to thwart the plot of these albino,
00:23:22 shape-shifting lizard bitches.
00:23:23 We are going to take this bike outside,
00:23:25 ask the first person we see,
00:23:26 we're going to introduce some novelty.
00:23:28 That way we can get an objective viewpoint.
00:23:30 I'm fired, but I'm legal!
00:23:32 By the way, I might take you up on that $60 offer.
00:23:35 No, that was for an 18-speed.
00:23:36 Oh, God.
00:23:37 Now for this, 18 minus 10, I'll give you 23.75.
00:23:39 Are you certain that's the right math on that?
00:23:43 Come in.
00:23:44 You are Officer Fred?
00:23:51 Yes.
00:23:53 Have a seat, please.
00:23:55 All right, Fred.
00:24:03 We're going to administer several easy tests
00:24:05 and there will be no physical discomfort involved.
00:24:09 If this is about the speech I gave today--
00:24:11 What this is about stems from a recent departmental survey
00:24:15 showing that several undercover agents
00:24:17 have been admitted to neural aphasia clinics
00:24:19 during the last month.
00:24:21 You're conscious of the high factor of addictiveness
00:24:23 of substance D?
00:24:24 Of course I am.
00:24:26 Of course these tests in no way pertain
00:24:28 to the addictive properties of substance D,
00:24:31 but to--well, let's start with the set-ground test first.
00:24:36 Within the apparently meaningless lines
00:24:38 is an object that we would all recognize.
00:24:41 You're to tell me what that object is
00:24:43 and point to it in the total field.
00:24:46 In many of those, taking substance D,
00:24:48 a split between the right hemisphere
00:24:49 and the left hemisphere of the brain occurs,
00:24:51 which results in a defect within both the percept
00:24:54 and cognitive systems,
00:24:55 although apparently the cognitive continues to function normally.
00:24:58 Have you located the familiar object in this line drawing?
00:25:01 It should just jump right out at you.
00:25:04 I see a Coke bottle.
00:25:07 A soda pop bottle is correct.
00:25:10 Was it in the speech I gave?
00:25:12 Maybe it seemed I showed a little bilateral dysfunction there.
00:25:16 I mean, it might have seemed a little slushed.
00:25:21 Are you getting any cross-chatter?
00:25:25 What?
00:25:26 Cross-chatter between hemispheres.
00:25:30 If there's damage to the left hemisphere
00:25:32 where the linguistic skills are normally located,
00:25:34 then sometimes the right hemisphere will fill in
00:25:36 to the best of its ability.
00:25:39 Um, I don't know.
00:25:42 Not that I'm aware of.
00:25:44 What do you see in this second picture?
00:25:52 A sheep.
00:25:56 Show me the sheep.
00:25:59 An impairment of set background discrimination
00:26:01 can get you into a heap of trouble.
00:26:04 Instead of perceiving no forms, you perceive faulty forms.
00:26:10 So there is no sheep here, is there?
00:26:14 Was I close?
00:26:15 This is not a Rorschach test
00:26:17 where some abstract block can be interpreted
00:26:19 many ways by many subjects.
00:26:21 This has one specific object.
00:26:23 In this case...
00:26:25 a dog.
00:26:28 Dog.
00:26:31 What's that mean that I saw a sheep instead?
00:26:34 Who knows?
00:26:35 Only after the entire set has been run
00:26:37 can we make a determination--
00:26:38 The way this is superior to the Rorschach
00:26:40 is that it's not interpretive.
00:26:41 There are many wrongs, but there is only one right.
00:26:44 You either get it or you don't.
00:26:46 And if you show a run of not getting it,
00:26:48 then we have a fix on a functional impairment
00:26:51 and we dry you out for a while
00:26:53 until you test better later on.
00:26:55 A new path?
00:26:57 Undoubtedly.
00:26:59 Now, what do you see in this drawing
00:27:02 among these particular black and white lines?
00:27:07 Plastic dog shit.
00:27:09 The little kind you can buy and put in someone's bed.
00:27:12 Can I go now?
00:27:15 You know, Fred,
00:27:16 if you keep your sense of humor like you do,
00:27:18 you just might make it after all.
00:27:21 Make it?
00:27:23 Make what?
00:27:24 The team? The girl?
00:27:26 Make good? Make do?
00:27:27 Make out? Make sense?
00:27:29 Make money? Make time?
00:27:30 Define your terms.
00:27:32 The Latin for "make" is "facere,"
00:27:34 which always reminds me of "facere,"
00:27:36 which is Latin for "to fuck."
00:27:39 And I haven't been getting shit in that department lately.
00:27:43 If you guys are psychologist types
00:27:45 and you've been monitoring my endless debriefings with Hank,
00:27:49 tell me, what the hell is Donna's deal?
00:27:52 What do I do?
00:27:54 I mean, how do you make it with that kind of sweet,
00:27:57 unique, stubborn little chick?
00:27:59 You could buy her flowers.
00:28:02 Really?
00:28:03 This time of year, you can get little blue flowers at any nursery.
00:28:07 Give them to her.
00:28:09 Yeah?
00:28:19 Hey, Fred.
00:28:23 Glad you could make it.
00:28:25 This is the informant who phoned in about Bob Arker,
00:28:28 and I mentioned him.
00:28:30 Yeah.
00:28:31 Anyway, he phoned in again,
00:28:33 and we challenged him to step forth and identify himself.
00:28:37 Do you know this man?
00:28:39 Sure do.
00:28:42 You're James Barris, aren't you?
00:28:45 So, Mr. Barris, what's your information?
00:28:49 I have evidence that Mr. Arker
00:28:51 is part of a covert terrorist drug organization.
00:28:54 They're well-funded,
00:28:55 and they have arsenals of weapons at their disposal.
00:28:58 And what is this organization?
00:29:01 I believe it to be political in nature
00:29:03 and very much against this country,
00:29:06 an enemy of the U.S.
00:29:08 Can you give us any specific names
00:29:10 of anyone else in this organization
00:29:13 a person's Arker meets with?
00:29:15 Yes, uh, Ms. Donna Hawthorne.
00:29:17 On a variety of pretext,
00:29:19 he will go over to her place of residence
00:29:21 and colludes with her regularly, I've noticed.
00:29:24 Colludes?
00:29:26 Colludes.
00:29:28 What do you mean?
00:29:29 Well, I've followed him in my own car without his knowledge.
00:29:32 He goes there often?
00:29:33 Yes, as often as--
00:29:34 She is his girl.
00:29:36 Right. Uh, Mr. Arker also--
00:29:38 Hold up, hold up.
00:29:40 You think there's anything to this, Fred?
00:29:42 I think we should definitely look at his evidence.
00:29:46 All right, bring in your evidence, all of it.
00:29:49 We want names, most of all.
00:29:51 Now, have you seen Mr. Arker
00:29:54 involved in any large quantities of drugs?
00:29:57 To be certain, and I have carefully taken samples,
00:30:00 again, without his knowledge.
00:30:02 When the opportunity presented itself,
00:30:04 strictly for you to analyze, and I can bring those in as well.
00:30:07 Great.
00:30:08 Is there anything else you wish to state at this time?
00:30:12 There is. Mr. Arker is an addict.
00:30:15 He is addicted to substance d,
00:30:17 and I fear that his mind has become deranged over time,
00:30:20 and he is now officially to be considered dangerous.
00:30:25 Dangerous?
00:30:26 Yes, he is having episodes that would occur
00:30:29 with brain damage from substance d,
00:30:31 and I'm quite certain also that the optic chiasm
00:30:34 has deteriorated somewhat due to a weak ipsilateral component.
00:30:38 This sort of unsupported speculation,
00:30:40 as I've already warned you, Mr. Barris,
00:30:42 is completely worthless.
00:30:44 Now, we'll be sending an officer with you
00:30:47 to gather your evidence, all right?
00:30:49 May I--
00:30:50 So, right?
00:30:51 An officer out of uniform, of course.
00:30:53 Ah, no, see, I could be murdered.
00:30:56 As I've already said, Mr. Arker has this cachet of weapons.
00:31:01 Mr. Barris, we appreciate this and the extreme risk you are taking,
00:31:06 and if it works out,
00:31:07 and your information is valuable in obtaining a conviction,
00:31:11 then naturally--
00:31:12 But that is not the reason I am here.
00:31:14 You see, this man, he just has a soul sickness.
00:31:17 His brain is damaged from the use of this toxic
00:31:20 and most terrible substance.
00:31:22 Nonetheless, the reason I am here is I feel that I may have
00:31:26 certain qualities that would qualify me
00:31:29 to perhaps come over to your side to surrender
00:31:31 and come to the side of law enforcement in general.
00:31:33 I would like an employment application.
00:31:35 All right, we don't care why you're here.
00:31:37 We only care whether your evidence and material amount to anything.
00:31:42 The rest is your problem.
00:31:45 [indistinct chatter]
00:31:47 Perhaps at the desk I can get an employment--
00:31:55 Gentlemen, you are about to witness for approximately
00:31:58 $0.61 of ordinary household materials
00:32:02 the perfect homemade silencer.
00:32:05 Barris, the neighbors are going to hear.
00:32:07 Nah, they're only calling murders in this neighborhood.
00:32:10 Plus, Freckledeck, it's a silencer.
00:32:12 They're not going to hear anything.
00:32:14 Well, I'm pretty fucking sure they're illegal.
00:32:17 In this day and age, the type of society we find ourselves living in,
00:32:23 every person of worth needs to have a gun at all times
00:32:26 to protect themselves.
00:32:28 And we're off.
00:32:30 [speaking French]
00:32:33 [gunshot]
00:32:38 [dog barking]
00:32:40 That sure is some silencer.
00:32:45 Yes, what it did was augment the sound rather than dampen it.
00:32:50 But I almost have it. I believe I have it in principle anyway.
00:32:53 Oh, well, the good news is, regardless of what you do next time,
00:32:57 it'll be a silencer to us because we're now deaf!
00:33:01 [music playing]
00:33:03 What happened?
00:33:16 How'd I get here?
00:33:21 [music playing]
00:33:23 Okay, it's your move now.
00:33:32 Anyone want some popcorn?
00:33:40 Yeah!
00:33:42 [music playing]
00:33:44 Ah! Fuck!
00:33:55 The pain.
00:34:04 So unexpected an undeserved head for some reason cleared away the cobwebs.
00:34:11 I realized I didn't hate the cabinet door.
00:34:14 I hated my life, my house, my family.
00:34:19 Are you okay, Daddy? What happened?
00:34:22 My backyard.
00:34:24 My power mower.
00:34:26 Nothing would ever change.
00:34:30 Nothing new could ever be expected.
00:34:33 It had to end.
00:34:36 And it did.
00:34:40 Now in the dark world where I dwell,
00:34:43 ugly things and surprising things and sometimes little wondrous things
00:34:49 spill out at me constantly.
00:34:52 And I can count on nothing.
00:34:56 [music playing]
00:35:01 [car engine]
00:35:03 Bed fly. Got it.
00:35:14 That would be a dumb accord for it.
00:35:16 Oh yeah, Miss Bicketts. If I'd known it was harmless...
00:35:19 I would have killed it myself.
00:35:21 Thanks for the memories.
00:35:24 [laughing]
00:35:28 You had such beautiful memories.
00:35:30 Daddy's slow, Pop.
00:35:32 Ha ha, getting around the wind.
00:35:34 Your move, Peterbilt.
00:35:35 That's a big ten-four.
00:35:37 You got nothing on us.
00:35:39 Nothing on the air.
00:35:41 Hit a light!
00:35:42 Hey, Bob, don't run.
00:35:44 Not so fast, Bob.
00:35:45 You are flying.
00:35:46 Accelerate.
00:35:47 Steady.
00:35:49 Accelerate.
00:35:50 Slow down.
00:35:51 Easy.
00:35:53 Son of a bitch!
00:35:55 Hey!
00:35:56 Sorry!
00:35:57 That's over!
00:36:09 Emergency!
00:36:11 We're getting over!
00:36:13 Emergency!
00:36:14 What the hell was that?
00:36:20 Jesus fucking Christ!
00:36:22 What the hell in the putnany was that?
00:36:24 The return spring on the throttle cable.
00:36:27 Look, the gas.
00:36:29 Must have caught a broken.
00:36:31 Give her a look.
00:36:32 Ah!
00:36:47 It's not the spring.
00:36:50 It's the linkage from the pedal to the car.
00:36:52 See, it fell apart so the gas pedal didn't push back out when you took your foot off.
00:36:57 But that doesn't explain why.
00:36:59 There's a safety override on the car when the linkage parts.
00:37:02 Why did it fall?
00:37:04 Shouldn't this locking ring hold the cable in place?
00:37:06 I mean, how did it just come off like that?
00:37:09 Let's have a look.
00:37:10 Let's probe a little.
00:37:12 All right.
00:37:13 This screw has been turned all the way out, the idle screw.
00:37:17 So when the linkage parted, it went the other way, up instead of down.
00:37:21 Wait.
00:37:22 How could that happen?
00:37:24 There's no way that that screw could turn itself all the way out like that accidentally.
00:37:29 No way.
00:37:30 Motherfucker!
00:37:34 They did it deliberately!
00:37:36 We almost died!
00:37:38 They almost fucking got us, man!
00:37:41 To loosen the lock ring and nut assembly that holds the accelerator linkage rods together,
00:37:45 a special tool would be needed, several in fact.
00:37:48 I'm going to estimate it'll take about a half an hour to get this back together.
00:37:50 I have the tools, though.
00:37:52 Back at the house.
00:37:54 Correct.
00:37:55 Well, we can always go to a repair center and borrow theirs or get a tow truck out here.
00:38:00 Here.
00:38:10 You know, maybe that's what's fucking us up, fucking up our brains.
00:38:18 We're going to wind up like Freckson.
00:38:21 No.
00:38:22 Okay, these are for us.
00:38:25 And we're going to suggest that you take several,
00:38:28 with the implicit acceptance of the fact that Substance D cannot screw up an accelerator linkage or a carbide adjustment.
00:38:33 Yeah, dude, don't blame the drugs.
00:38:35 Nice.
00:38:39 Well, so much for our great road trip to San Diego, Bob.
00:38:43 I told you we should have gone to San Francisco.
00:38:46 What, like going to San Francisco would not have caused this problem with the engine?
00:38:50 Yeah, because when you're going north, it screws this way, and when you're going south, it screws that way.
00:38:56 Not if we were in Australia.
00:38:58 This proves you got somebody out to get you real bad, Bob.
00:39:09 I just hope that the house is still there when we get back.
00:39:12 Yeah, I didn't think of that.
00:39:14 I wouldn't worry about it too much.
00:39:15 You wouldn't.
00:39:16 Christ, they may have broken in and ripped off all we got.
00:39:20 All Bob's got, anyhow.
00:39:23 What if they stomped the animals?
00:39:25 Don't worry about it.
00:39:27 I left a little surprise for them.
00:39:29 What?
00:39:31 Yes, anyone entering the house while we were gone today will receive a little surprise.
00:39:36 A little something I perfected early this morning.
00:39:38 What kind of surprise?
00:39:40 It's my house, Jim. You should ask me before you start wiring up my house.
00:39:44 Why would you get so uptight about protecting your house from intruders? Why would you care?
00:39:48 I'm just saying it's my house, that's all.
00:39:51 You can't start going around booby-trapping my house.
00:39:54 Okay, okay.
00:39:55 I mean, geez, or as the Germans would say, "Liza," which translates to "be cool."
00:39:59 Just...
00:40:00 So what did you do?
00:40:03 If the front door is opened while we are in absentia,
00:40:06 thumbnail-sized auxiliary motion detector digital memory cameras start recording.
00:40:11 You should have told me.
00:40:14 What if they come in through the back door or the bathroom window like that infamous Beatles song?
00:40:19 To increase their chances of entering via the front door rather than in other, less usual places,
00:40:25 I fortuitously left the front door unlocked.
00:40:28 Suppose they don't know it's unlocked.
00:40:30 Well, that's why I left a note on the door.
00:40:32 You're kidding me.
00:40:34 No, no.
00:40:35 No. Yes. But no. But yes.
00:40:38 Are you bullshitting us or not? I just simply never know with you.
00:40:43 Is he fucking with us, Bob?
00:40:45 We'll see when we get back.
00:40:46 If there's a note on the door and it's unlocked, we'll know he isn't lying.
00:40:51 We'll probably take the note down after ripping off and vandalizing the house
00:40:55 and then locking the door behind them so we don't know.
00:40:58 We will never know. It's still that great area.
00:41:01 Of course I'm kidding.
00:41:02 Only a psychotic would do that, leave the front door of the house unlocked with a note on the door.
00:41:06 What did you write on the note, Jim?
00:41:08 I wrote, "Come on in the door some more."
00:41:10 He did it. He really did it.
00:41:14 This is the only way we're going to know for sure, Bob, who's been doing this stuff.
00:41:17 Is that not what is of primary importance?
00:41:20 Okay, I'm still gray-haired. Now, did you do it or not?
00:41:23 Is it really that suspenseful?
00:41:26 Did you?
00:41:27 He did it.
00:41:28 Please, it doesn't matter. We're going to be home shortly.
00:41:30 Did you?
00:41:31 We'll be home presently.
00:41:32 [door creaks]
00:41:35 [door creaks]
00:41:38 [door creaks]
00:41:42 [door creaks]
00:41:46 [footsteps]
00:41:49 [door creaks]
00:42:06 [footsteps]
00:42:09 Oh, wow.
00:42:19 There, as I can see to the right,
00:42:21 this scrupulous covering over of all the signs that would have otherwise left,
00:42:26 dust-a-pies to their durness.
00:42:29 You're an idiot.
00:42:30 Huh.
00:42:31 Wait, wait, wait.
00:42:33 What is...
00:42:34 What's that?
00:42:35 Huh?
00:42:36 Uh-huh.
00:42:37 Uh-huh. Come here.
00:42:38 Come here, look at this. Look at this.
00:42:39 Oh, oh, oh.
00:42:40 Oh, oh, oh.
00:42:41 It's still hot cigarette, buddy. It sure is.
00:42:42 Wait a second.
00:42:44 They lit a joint while they were here, Bob.
00:42:47 Bucket beer is right. There was somebody here.
00:42:49 This roach is still hot. Smell it.
00:42:51 Yes.
00:42:52 And that roach may not have been left here by accident.
00:42:55 This evidence may not be a slip-up.
00:42:57 So what now?
00:43:00 Maybe they were here specifically to plant drugs in the house,
00:43:03 setting us up, then phoning in a tip later.
00:43:06 It could be in the phone. It could be in the wall outlets.
00:43:08 We are going to have to go through this house and get it absolutely clean
00:43:11 before they phone us in unless they already have.
00:43:13 Have?
00:43:14 We might only have minutes.
00:43:16 Huh.
00:43:17 You check the wall sockets. I'll tear this phone apart.
00:43:19 Wait, wait, wait. Hold on, hold on.
00:43:21 If they see us scrambling around right before the raid...
00:43:22 What raid?
00:43:23 If we are running around frantically trying to flush the drugs,
00:43:26 then we can't allege, even though it's true that we didn't know they were here,
00:43:29 they are going to find us holding them.
00:43:31 Or maybe that's part of the plan.
00:43:34 Oh, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit!
00:43:38 We can't do it like that!
00:43:40 We're...
00:43:41 Fuck, man!
00:43:42 Fuck, man!
00:43:45 Ferris, what about the super-secret surveillance cameras?
00:43:47 What?
00:43:49 The doodads, man.
00:43:51 Oh, yes, of course. Right, of course.
00:43:53 How could I have forgotten?
00:43:54 Oh, this should be extremely informational at this point.
00:43:58 I believe this will tell us a great deal.
00:44:02 Although it probably wouldn't have...
00:44:10 proven to be that important.
00:44:13 Let me guess. Didn't record.
00:44:16 Allow me to suggest that it's highly likely that the tow truck was bugged,
00:44:23 thus affording them ample time and opportunity to deploy an operative
00:44:28 to diffuse and otherwise erase the evidence obtained.
00:44:31 But at this point we have no other recourse.
00:44:35 Maybe with their evasive tactics.
00:44:36 I mean, there is of course one thing you could do, Bob,
00:44:38 although it would take time.
00:44:40 Sell the house and move out?
00:44:44 But, hell, this is our home!
00:44:49 You could make a considerable profit.
00:44:51 On the other hand, you might have to take a loss in a quick sale.
00:44:53 I know a good realtor.
00:44:56 What reason should I give for selling? They always ask.
00:45:00 Can't tell the truth. You really shouldn't tell the truth.
00:45:02 Well, why can't we tell the truth?
00:45:04 We've put an end to the L.A. Times.
00:45:06 Modern, three-bedroom tract house with two bathrooms for easy and fast flushing.
00:45:12 High-grade drugs stashed throughout all rooms, included in sale price.
00:45:16 It could actually increase the value.
00:45:19 But they might be calling and asking what kind of drugs are stashed,
00:45:22 and we don't know. It could be anything.
00:45:24 And prospective buyers might require us to the quantity.
00:45:26 And we don't know at this point.
00:45:29 It could be ounces of weed or pounds of heroin or hits of E or kilocaps of D.
00:45:33 Hey, you guys.
00:45:34 Doc!
00:45:36 Mark! Jesus!
00:45:37 What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:45:41 I came in, like the note said.
00:45:45 It didn't say when you were going to get back.
00:45:48 So I just sat around for a while and ended up crashing.
00:45:54 Love your sweater.
00:45:56 Don't touch me!
00:45:57 Man, you guys are making so much noise.
00:46:00 Sorry.
00:46:02 Woke me up.
00:46:03 Did you smoke a joint before you crashed?
00:46:07 Uh, yeah.
00:46:09 Otherwise I can't ever sleep.
00:46:16 You know, you guys should seriously think about maybe locking the doors when you leave.
00:46:21 Otherwise you could get ripped off and it'd be your own fault.
00:46:25 It was all your fault.
00:46:27 Did I even say you were going to sell the house?
00:46:31 Or is that, you know, me dreaming?
00:46:35 That's what I heard sounded weird.
00:46:38 You had a wrong dream.
00:46:40 Steady. Steady.
00:46:42 Kidney. Kidney.
00:46:44 Ow! Kidney!
00:46:45 So the information from the holo-scanners installed in Archer's house are transmitted back here.
00:46:51 To station 12-8-7-9.
00:46:53 This'll be your new home away from home, pal.
00:46:57 It's, uh, pretty intuitive.
00:47:01 You'll just be watching and scanning through recorded information.
00:47:06 You can go live, of course, but that tends to be excruciatingly boring.
00:47:11 And then you see where these holos are placed.
00:47:14 What would be great is if they ever need servicing or changing out, you can do that yourself while no one else is around.
00:47:21 But wouldn't you then see me on the tapes doing that?
00:47:24 No, for that you just edit yourself out.
00:47:27 But be sure to include yourself in the tapes from time to time.
00:47:31 Because if you systematically edit yourself out, then we can deduce who you are through the process of elimination, whether we want to or not.
00:47:40 I'm not sure I exactly...
00:47:42 Well, we take it for granted that you are one of the individuals that are in Archer's circle of roommates and friends that frequent the house.
00:47:50 I mean, undoubtedly you're either Jim Barris or Ernie Luckman, Charles Freck, even Archer himself.
00:47:59 Hell, you could be Donna for all I know.
00:48:01 As my superior, I figure you'd know all this stuff.
00:48:05 How the hell would I know? I'm just a little guy behind a big desk.
00:48:09 You'd have to go way up the food chain to access that kind of info.
00:48:14 You know, instead of me doing any maintenance, you should send someone to the house once a month in uniform and have them say,
00:48:20 "Good morning, I'm here to service the monitoring devices covertly installed on your premises."
00:48:27 Maybe that sucker Archer would even pick up the bill.
00:48:33 Actually, I think Archer would probably kill the guy and then disappear.
00:48:37 If it's proven that Archer is in fact hiding that much.
00:48:42 Believe me, Archer is hiding a great deal.
00:48:45 We've got more recent information on him analyzed and there's no doubt about it.
00:48:51 He's a ringer, a three dollar bill. The guy's a phony.
00:48:56 So keep on him until he drops, until we have enough to arrest him and make it stick.
00:49:02 You think he's high up in the, you know, Substance D network?
00:49:06 What we think is of no importance to your work.
00:49:09 You report your limited conclusions and we evaluate. You got it?
00:49:15 Okay, okay. I got it.
00:49:18 I'd say Archer is doomed if he's up to something.
00:49:24 And I have a hunch from what you're saying that he is.
00:49:31 Actually, the idling jets could be replaced with smaller jets that would compensate for the attack.
00:49:37 It just watches RPMs so it didn't over-rev.
00:49:40 Usually just backing off on the gas pedal causes it to up-shift if the automatic linkage doesn't do it.
00:49:45 What do you grease monkeys up to?
00:49:47 Bob's got a bent choke shaft. How much does this one ball away?
00:49:51 Weighs about a thousand pounds.
00:49:53 All right. A thousand pounds, traveling at 80 miles per hour, built up a force of...
00:49:56 That's a thousand pounds with passengers in it and a full tank of gas.
00:50:00 For a fact, okay.
00:50:01 How many passengers?
00:50:02 Twelve. Six in the front, six in the back.
00:50:05 No, that's eleven in the back and the driver's sitting alone up front.
00:50:08 The extra weight in the rear wheels is to keep the car from fishtailing.
00:50:11 What are we talking about? Twelve 50-pound passengers?
00:50:13 Kid's soccer team. Is that metal or plastic cleats?
00:50:16 Metal cleats, for safety.
00:50:18 Okay, my computations are complete. You are just hackle-tweak.
00:50:21 But you are bug-bite-squared.
00:50:23 What kind of bug?
00:50:24 About to get fucked up, bitch beetle.
00:50:26 Hey, come on. Cuckooly, you guys.
00:50:28 Step back, you fricking frack. Ernie's on the attack.
00:50:32 What is this?
00:50:33 Come on. I'm desperately afraid.
00:50:35 I'm gonna knock your nads up into your nostrils for talking to your betters that way.
00:50:40 All right. I'm a technician. You're an interloper.
00:50:42 You are constitutionally incapable of not...
00:50:44 Shut the fuck up.
00:50:45 Shut the fuck up!
00:50:46 No, no, proctology boy. I'm coming in.
00:50:49 Shut it. Hey, hey. I have the perfect tool for this job.
00:50:53 I was only kidding.
00:51:00 Fuck. Fuck!
00:51:02 What if he goes in there and he gets his gun and his silencer?
00:51:06 I'm leaving. This place has become unsafe.
00:51:09 No, hey, hey, Frick. No, come on. You're a bro, man. Stick around.
00:51:14 What's the hammer for, bears?
00:51:17 No, I just saw it inside and I just thought I'd bring it along with me.
00:51:20 Same with this.
00:51:25 You ready? Huh?
00:51:26 Yeah. What do you want? Come on, hammer-turd.
00:51:28 Shut up!
00:51:29 Make a move.
00:51:30 Okay. If you guys are gonna kill each other, I'm splitting.
00:51:34 He's gonna bury the fucker.
00:51:36 What the fuck?
00:51:37 I'm gonna kill you.
00:51:38 You're gonna kill me?
00:51:39 I'm gonna kill you.
00:51:40 You're gonna kill me?
00:51:41 I'm gonna kill you.
00:51:42 I'm splitting. He's gonna bury the fucker.
00:51:45 Hey, Frick.
00:51:46 The most dangerous kind of person is the one who's afraid of his own shadow.
00:51:50 What is that supposed to mean?
00:51:51 I'll tell you what it means, Freckles.
00:51:53 It means that if you take too much of that stuff, you not only start seeing and feeling buggy bugs all over you,
00:51:57 but you start talking like... and no one can understand you.
00:52:00 What did you say, bears? I didn't understand.
00:52:02 See? You guys are fucked up.
00:52:06 No, no. It is you-guh-guh-goo that are fucked up.
00:52:09 Hey, you're a fricking wreck yourself.
00:52:11 Don't take the car. You'll kill yourself.
00:52:13 Hi-yah-gah-gah-gah.
00:52:15 So this guy's been going around claiming to be a world-famous imposter, right?
00:52:27 Says he's posed at one time or another as a surgeon at John Hopkins,
00:52:32 as a theoretical, sub-molecular, high-velocity particle research physicist on a federal grant at Harvard,
00:52:38 as a Finnish novelist who won the Nobel Prize for Literature,
00:52:43 as a deposed Argentinian president who was married to a go-go dancer from Chicago.
00:52:48 You done away with old guy?
00:52:50 You never got caught?
00:52:52 Okay, you broke my flow, so now I guess I'll just have to segway down to the near.
00:52:56 And that's just it. You see, he didn't pose as any of those.
00:52:59 He just posed as a world-famous imposter.
00:53:02 It came out later in the L.A. Times. They checked up.
00:53:06 And he was pushing a broom at Disneyland or something.
00:53:09 He saw that old DiCaprio movie, you know, the one where he plays a world-famous imposter,
00:53:14 before Leonardo hit his Elvis stage.
00:53:17 And his first thought was, "Hey, I could pose as all those exotic guys and get away with it."
00:53:22 But then his next thought was, "Hell, why bother? I could just pose as an imposter. It'd be a lot easier."
00:53:29 They say that he made more money than the actual imposter,
00:53:33 so I'm not sure if they adjusted for inflation.
00:53:38 Well, you know, we all see imposters now and then, but not posing as subatomic physicists.
00:53:45 Oh, it's an arch, you mean. What's an arch look like?
00:53:49 That's like asking what's an imposter look like.
00:53:52 I once talked to this dealer who'd been busted, and I asked him what the arch of Buston looked like.
00:53:57 What did he say? He look just like us?
00:54:01 More so. So I guess the moral of that is, stay away from guys looking the same as us.
00:54:09 [laughs]
00:54:13 Well, there are female Narcs.
00:54:15 Oh, hey, I'd like to meet one of those. No, I don't mean a female. I mean just a Narc, knowing me.
00:54:20 Like a positive, sure.
00:54:22 Positively know. And you will, because when he slaps the cuffs on you, you'll know for sure when that day comes.
00:54:29 How did a guy do that?
00:54:31 Poses as a Narc.
00:54:33 What?
00:54:34 What?
00:54:35 Poses as a Narc?
00:54:37 No, you said...
00:54:38 Poses as a Narc.
00:54:41 Oh, shit.
00:54:43 [laughs]
00:54:44 Shit, I'm spaced.
00:54:46 Poses as a Narc. Wow.
00:54:48 Poses as a Narc.
00:54:50 [laughs]
00:54:53 My brains are scrambled today.
00:54:55 [music]
00:54:59 Hmm.
00:55:00 [music]
00:55:05 [music]
00:55:10 [music]
00:55:15 [music]
00:55:20 [music]

00:56:00 [music]
00:56:05 [music]
00:56:10 [music]
00:56:17 Christ, Paris, what the fuck?
00:56:19 [music]
00:56:31 Oh. [clears throat]
00:56:36 Uh, yes, hi. How are you?
00:56:38 I have something somewhat, uh, emergent, uh, to report.
00:56:42 Uh, I don't know if I should be sending the inhalator squad or the resuscitation squad.
00:56:47 [clears throat]
00:56:48 Uh, I don't, I don't, I don't want to say it's not cardiac arrest,
00:56:52 but it's either that or an involuntary, uh, asphyxiation of the whole list within the...
00:56:57 Uh, the address. Yes, the address is simple.
00:57:00 Although I've never sent myself a piece of mail here.
00:57:03 It's got something to do with 709...
00:57:06 Is that street relevant?
00:57:07 Come on.
00:57:08 I'll tell you this much, it is a coal shack.
00:57:10 Uh, it's technically not on the street.
00:57:13 Oh, I, uh, please report you won't be needing assistance, uh...
00:57:16 Thank you. Have a nice day.
00:57:18 [coughing]
00:57:19 There you go. Took care of itself.
00:57:21 [coughing]
00:57:23 [coughing]
00:57:24 Oh, Jesus.
00:57:25 You all right?
00:57:26 Oh, there you go.
00:57:28 I must have passed out.
00:57:30 You, uh, I was dreaming.
00:57:33 I must have almost died.
00:57:35 Yeah.
00:57:36 Shit.
00:57:37 So what were you doing while I was being escorted by dead relatives to the bright light?
00:57:44 Well, Jack, you going off?
00:57:45 No, no, no, no, no. You saw me. I was on the phone.
00:57:47 I summoned the buried medics. I was probably...
00:57:49 Bullshit!
00:57:50 ...after that delay.
00:57:51 You were cleaning your pipe?
00:57:52 No, I was wrapping my pipe. You were unconscious.
00:57:55 You're the only person in the known universe who never heard of the Heimlich maneuver?
00:57:59 All right, I'm gonna give you a little feedback since you seem to be proceeding through life
00:58:03 like a cat without whiskers perpetually caught behind the refrigerator.
00:58:09 Your life and watching you live it is like a gag reel of ineffective bodily functions.
00:58:14 I swear to God that a toddler has a better understanding of the intricacies of chew, swallow, digest,
00:58:21 don't kill yourself on your TV dinner,
00:58:24 and yet you've managed to turn this near-death fuck-up of yours into a moral referendum on me.
00:58:29 You are a murderer!
00:58:32 You are a Billy Gov...
00:58:33 A sex depraved un...
00:58:35 Charles Freck, becoming progressively more and more depressed by what was happening around him,
00:58:44 decided finally to off himself.
00:58:47 There was no problem in the circles where he hung out in putting an end to yourself.
00:58:51 He just bought a large quantity of downers and took them with some cheap wine.
00:58:56 The planning part had to do with the artifacts he wanted found on him by later archaeologists.
00:59:02 He had spent several days deciding, much longer than he had spent deciding to kill himself.
00:59:07 He would be found lying on his back on his bed with a copy of Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead
00:59:13 and an unfinished letter to Exxon protesting the cancellation of his gas credit card.
00:59:18 That way he would indict the system and achieve something by his death,
00:59:22 over and above what the death itself achieved.
00:59:25 At the last moment he changed his mind on a decisive issue
00:59:28 and decided to drink the pills with a connoisseur wine instead of Ripple or Thunderbird.
00:59:33 So he set off on one last drive, over to Tiney's Liquors, which specialized in fine wines,
00:59:39 and bought a bottle of 2001 Azalea Springs Merlot, which set him back almost $70.
00:59:47 When he was home again, he uncorked the wine, let it breathe, drank a few glasses of it,
00:59:51 and tried to think of something meaningful but could not.
00:59:54 And then, with a glass of Merlot, gulped down all the pills at once.
00:59:58 However, he had been burned.
01:00:03 Instead of quietly suffocating, Charles Frack began to hallucinate.
01:00:08 The next thing he knew, a creature from between dimensions was standing beside his bed,
01:00:13 looking down at him disapprovingly.
01:00:16 You gonna read me my sins?
01:00:18 It's gonna take a hundred thousand hours.
01:00:24 Your sins will be read to you ceaselessly in shifts throughout eternity.
01:00:30 The list will never end.
01:00:33 The Sins of Frick
01:00:37 Charles Frack wished he could take back the last half hour of his life.
01:00:41 In 1986, in the first grade, theft of fingernail clippers.
01:00:45 8 p.m. theft.
01:00:47 You did knowingly and with malice punch your baby sister Evelyn.
01:00:51 December. Theft of Christmas presents.
01:00:54 One million lies.
01:00:56 One thousand years later, they had reached the sixth grade, the year he had discovered masturbation.
01:01:02 November 14th.
01:01:03 Percodan. Vicodin. Cocaine.
01:01:07 Charles Frack thought, "At least I got a good wine."
01:01:11 Where did Substance D come from? Why can't we stop it?
01:01:15 The bigger this war gets, the more freedoms we lose, the more Substance D is on our streets.
01:01:21 Can't you figure this out?
01:01:23 Look around you! Look how far we've come!
01:01:26 Humanity wasn't meant to live like this!
01:01:28 On every waking moment, tracked and traced and scanned!
01:01:32 It's time to stop submitting to this tyranny!
01:01:34 It's time to realize that we're being enslaved!
01:01:37 Uh-oh, it's our tax dollars at work! Protect us from ourselves!
01:01:41 Hey guys, I used to be one of you! Stop selling out your own species!
01:01:45 Hey! Get in!
01:01:58 You scared me.
01:02:01 I've got something for you.
01:02:05 I'm seeing some crazy shit tonight.
01:02:08 What do you mean?
01:02:11 I'm fucking embarrassed.
01:02:13 You know how he works?
01:02:15 He doesn't kill anybody, but he hangs around until the situation arises where they die.
01:02:21 And then he just sits there.
01:02:25 And he sort of sets them up in the first place while he stays out of it.
01:02:30 But I'm not sure how.
01:02:35 Hey, do you have that money for the stuff? I need it tonight.
01:02:39 Yeah, I have it.
01:02:41 Okay.
01:02:42 You know, I don't like Barris.
01:02:46 And I don't trust him.
01:02:48 He's fucking crazy.
01:02:50 And when you're around him, you start acting crazy.
01:02:52 And then when you're not around him, you're fine.
01:02:55 But you're acting crazy now.
01:02:58 I am?
01:02:59 Yes.
01:03:01 Oh.
01:03:03 Hey, will you take me to a concert next weekend at Anaheim Stadium?
01:03:07 Sure.
01:03:08 Yeah?
01:03:09 Yeah.
01:03:10 Yeah.
01:03:13 Which night?
01:03:14 It's Sunday afternoon.
01:03:17 Whatever you want.
01:03:21 Well, I'll just drive over to my place.
01:03:26 You have the money, you'll give it to me.
01:03:29 We'll kick back, drop some death, maybe get some tequila.
01:03:34 All right.
01:03:38 All right.
01:03:43 Hey, Donna, do you like cats?
01:03:49 Mmm, drippy little things.
01:03:53 Moving along, about a foot above the ground.
01:03:58 Above?
01:04:00 You mean on the ground?
01:04:03 Just dripping behind furniture.
01:04:08 Little spring flowers with blue in them that come up first.
01:04:14 Yeah.
01:04:16 Before someone stomps on them and they're all gone.
01:04:21 It's like you know me.
01:04:25 You can read me.
01:04:28 Can I put my arms around you?
01:04:34 I want to hug you, okay?
01:04:39 No.
01:04:40 What?
01:04:41 Look, I do a lot of coke, okay?
01:04:43 And I just have to be really careful because I do a lot of coke, so just leave my body alone, okay?
01:04:50 Okay.
01:04:53 You sure?
01:04:55 Yeah.
01:04:57 You know, fuck it.
01:05:03 Hey, I'm sorry.
01:05:05 I just don't like it when people grope my body and I have to watch out for that because I snort so much coke.
01:05:11 That's fucking lame. I gotta go.
01:05:13 Your car's not fixed.
01:05:16 I drove you here. I'll drive you back.
01:05:21 Bob!
01:05:23 Bob!
01:05:26 Bob!
01:05:28 Wait!
01:05:30 Please.
01:05:32 Please wait.
01:05:34 I didn't mean to. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.
01:05:37 I'm just so out of it right now.
01:05:40 Sometimes after I've worked really hard all day, please come back.
01:05:45 Come on.
01:05:47 Tequila!
01:05:48 How much do you do?
01:05:51 Not that much.
01:05:56 I don't shoot up. I never have and I never will.
01:06:00 Once you start shooting, you have like six months, maybe.
01:06:04 Even tap water. You get a habit.
01:06:07 You have a habit.
01:06:10 We all do.
01:06:13 I mean, so what? What's the difference?
01:06:16 I'm happy. Aren't you happy?
01:06:19 Listen to me.
01:06:22 I think it's starting to get bad.
01:06:26 You know what I want to do someday, Bob?
01:06:34 I want to move north.
01:06:37 I want to have my farm near the mountains.
01:06:41 And a cabin.
01:06:43 Can I go with you?
01:06:46 I hope so.
01:06:49 I hope so.
01:07:10 Oh, Ratty. You weren't kidding.
01:07:14 Do you have a toothbrush?
01:07:35 What?
01:07:37 It's great. It's great. Teeth are teeth.
01:07:41 I'll, uh... I'll brush some.
01:07:45 The bathroom is?
01:07:51 What bathroom?
01:07:54 In the house.
01:07:58 Who are those guys out there?
01:08:03 They've been joints and rattling on and on.
01:08:06 They live here with you?
01:08:08 Two of them do.
01:08:11 So you're gay.
01:08:14 I try not to be. That's why I called you tonight.
01:08:17 So you're putting up a pretty good battle against it.
01:08:21 You better believe it.
01:08:24 I guess I'm about to find out.
01:08:27 If you're a latent gay, then you'll want me to take the initiative.
01:08:32 You want me to trust you?
01:08:34 Sure.

01:09:42 Hello?
01:09:52 We've processed some more recent material on you. How are you feeling?
01:09:57 Okay.
01:09:59 Any problems?
01:10:01 I wanted to fight with my girl.
01:10:03 Any confusion?
01:10:05 Are you experiencing any difficulty identifying persons or objects?
01:10:10 Any language disorientation?
01:10:13 No.
01:10:15 Can you come back over to room 203?
01:10:17 What did you find to be a problem?
01:10:21 Take that up when you get here.

01:11:54 All right, Fred, very good.
01:12:03 In this next test, with your eyes covered, reach out and feel an object with each hand.
01:12:12 You are to tell us if the object presented to your left hand is identical to the object presented to your right.
01:12:17 Uh...
01:12:26 Um...
01:12:30 Um...
01:12:34 Um...
01:12:36 Uh, one more thing, Fred.
01:12:45 We need an updated blood test, so go down the hall to the pathology lab and they'll fix you up.
01:12:50 And by the time you get back here, we should almost be through with our evaluation.
01:12:54 I'll be upstairs with Hank.
01:12:56 You certainly seem much more depressed today than you did when we first saw you.
01:13:01 Pardon?
01:13:03 Last week, when we first saw you, you were kidding and laughing.
01:13:07 Did you ever get her the flowers?
01:13:09 Uh...
01:13:14 Crazy job they gave me.
01:13:19 But if I wasn't doing it, someone else would be.
01:13:22 And they might get it wrong.
01:13:24 They might set Arctur up, plant drugs on him, and then kill him.
01:13:29 Plant drugs on him and collect a reward.
01:13:32 Better it be me, despite the disadvantages.
01:13:36 Just protecting everyone from Bear is his justification in itself.
01:13:40 What the hell am I talking about?
01:13:45 I must be nuts.
01:13:47 I know Bob Arctur. He's a good person.
01:13:50 He's up to nothing.
01:13:53 At least nothing too bad.
01:13:58 In fact, he works for the Orange County Sheriff's Office covertly.
01:14:02 Which is probably why Bear is his after.
01:14:05 But that wouldn't explain why the Orange County Sheriff's Office is after him.
01:14:11 Something big is definitely going down in this house.
01:14:18 This run-down, rubble-filled house.
01:14:22 With its weed patch yard and cat box that never gets emptied.
01:14:27 It's a waste of a truly good house.
01:14:30 So much could be done with it.
01:14:33 A family and children could live here.
01:14:36 It was designed for that.
01:14:38 Such a waste.
01:14:40 They ought to confiscate it and put it to better use.
01:14:45 [Door opens]
01:14:47 I'm supposed to act like they aren't here.
01:15:00 Assuming there's a "they" at all.
01:15:03 It may just be my imagination.
01:15:07 Whatever it is that's watching.
01:15:10 It's not human.
01:15:12 Unlike little dark-eyed Donna.
01:15:15 It doesn't ever blink.
01:15:18 What does the scanner see?
01:15:22 Into the head?
01:15:24 Down into the heart?
01:15:27 Does it see into me?
01:15:29 Into us?
01:15:31 Clearly or darkly?
01:15:33 I hope it sees clearly because I can't any longer see into myself.
01:15:39 I see only Mark.
01:15:42 I hope for everyone's sake the scanners do better.
01:15:46 Because if the scanner sees only darkly the way I do...
01:15:50 Then I'm cursed.
01:15:52 And cursed again.
01:15:54 And will only wind up dead this way.
01:15:58 Knowing very little and getting that little fragment wrong too.
01:16:05 [Sighs]
01:16:07 You show what we regard more as competition phenomenon than impairment.
01:16:16 Yeah?
01:16:18 Competition between the left and the right hemispheres of your brain.
01:16:22 It's like you have two signals that interfere with each other by carrying conflicting information.
01:16:27 It's as if you have two fuel gauges on your car.
01:16:30 They're studying the same amount of fuel but one says your tank is full, the other registers empty.
01:16:36 They can't both be right.
01:16:38 And you as the driver have only an indirect relationship to the fuel tank via the gauges.
01:16:43 So what does all this mean?
01:16:46 Well, I'm sure you know already.
01:16:49 You've been experiencing it without knowing why or what it is.
01:16:53 The two hemispheres of my brain...
01:16:57 Are competing?
01:16:59 Yes.
01:17:01 But... why?
01:17:06 Substance D.
01:17:08 It often causes that functionally and this is what the tests confirm.
01:17:12 Damage has taken place to the normally dominant left hemisphere and the right hemisphere is attempting to compensate.
01:17:18 Cross-cutting, we call it, related to split-brain phenomena.
01:17:22 We could perform a right hemispherectomy but I...
01:17:28 It's never go away.
01:17:30 Probably. It's a functional impairment.
01:17:33 It may be organic damage.
01:17:36 It may be permanent.
01:17:38 Time will tell. And only after you've been off Substance D for a long while.
01:17:43 I'll never take Substance D again for the rest of my life.
01:17:48 How much are you taking now?
01:17:51 Not much.
01:17:53 More recently because of job stress.
01:17:58 [Music]
01:18:04 Death is swallowed up in victory.
01:18:08 Behold, I tell you the sacred secret now.
01:18:12 We shall not all sleep in death.
01:18:15 We'll do the other half of Southern California tomorrow night.
01:18:23 The Air Force arsenal at Vandenberg will be hit for automatic weapons.
01:18:26 What about that anthrax Anwar ripped off for us?
01:18:29 When do we... Aren't we supposed to carry this stuff up to the watershed area?
01:18:33 We need the weapons first. Drugs and the water supply is step B.
01:18:37 Okay, but I gotta go. I got a customer.
01:18:40 I can also identify the aforementioned terrorist cell. It's repeatedly indicated throughout the course of my observations.
01:18:46 Do you have any more material of this sort or is this tape substantially it?
01:18:49 Oh no, I have a veritable cornucopia and much of it is directly referencing the organization and its directives.
01:18:55 Who are these people? What organization?
01:18:58 It is primarily Arctur and Hawthorne.
01:19:01 I have coded notes here which may be of some interest to you.
01:19:05 My own cryptology is very difficult to...
01:19:09 As of now, I'm impounding all of this.
01:19:12 It is our property temporarily and we will sort through it ourselves.
01:19:16 You will be on hand to explain anything to us if and when we get to the point where we feel we need anything explained.
01:19:24 Mr. Barriss, you will not be released pending our study of this material.
01:19:30 You will be charged as a formality to keep you available with knowingly giving the authorities false information.
01:19:38 This, of course, is just a pretext for your own safety.
01:19:42 I just want to go to the Galapagos.
01:19:45 Is that satisfactory, Mr. Barriss?
01:19:47 Not entirely. Though I wonder, when I'm locked down, may it be provided with some lotion and perhaps some...
01:19:53 [door closes]
01:19:55 So, what do you think of Barriss's evidence?
01:20:06 Seems like what he played, knew what we heard anyway, sounded pretty genuine to me.
01:20:15 It's fake. Worthless. Made on a home computer.
01:20:21 Maybe you're right.
01:20:24 Is that my medical report you have there?
01:20:28 Yep.
01:20:30 What does it say?
01:20:33 That you're completely bonkers.
01:20:36 Completely?
01:20:40 There's maybe two brain cells that still light up. The rest is just short circuits and sparks.
01:20:49 Two...
01:20:51 Listen, uh, when you go to pick up your next paycheck, there will be a substantial difference this time.
01:21:02 I get some sort of bonus for this? For this having happened to me unduty?
01:21:10 No. Read your penal code.
01:21:13 An officer who willingly becomes an addict and doesn't report it promptly is subject to a misdemeanor charge.
01:21:21 A fine and/or six months. You'll probably just be fined.
01:21:27 Willingly?
01:21:29 No one held a gun to your head and shot you up. No one dropped something in your soup.
01:21:35 You knowingly and willingly took an addictive drug. Brain-destructive and disorienting.
01:21:41 I had to.
01:21:43 You could have pretended to. Most officers manage to cope with it.
01:21:49 And from the quantities you were taking...
01:21:55 My God, Fred.
01:21:57 I... Hey, you know what I would do if I were you?
01:22:03 Once you get out of New Path, then, you know, it's all over.
01:22:06 But it may never be over.
01:22:10 Cigarette?
01:22:12 I'm getting off that, too. Everything.
01:22:17 Including chocolate.
01:22:19 And?
01:22:21 And?
01:22:22 Huh. Like I tell my kids.
01:22:26 I've got two kids. Two girls. Little ones.
01:22:32 I don't believe you do.
01:22:38 You're not supposed to.
01:22:41 Maybe not.
01:23:04 Listen, is there anywhere specific you'd like to go?
01:23:09 Maybe over to Donna Hawthorne's place from the information you brought in?
01:23:14 Sounds like you guys are pretty close.
01:23:17 Yes, we are.
01:23:22 How'd you know that?
01:23:24 Process of elimination.
01:23:28 I know who you aren't.
01:23:30 And we're talking about a very small group of people that we hoped would lead us higher.
01:23:35 And maybe Barris will.
01:23:37 I pieced it together a long time ago that you're Arctur.
01:23:42 I'm who?
01:23:47 I'm not Arctur.
01:23:55 Yeah, get me Donna Hawthorne's number or just patch me through when you locate her.
01:24:01 Thanks.
01:24:03 But you are in a very bad way, my friend.
01:24:07 Maybe Jim Barris poisoned you.
01:24:09 We're really interested in Barris, not you.
01:24:12 The whole scanning of the house was to keep an eye on him.
01:24:15 We hoped to draw him here, and we did.
01:24:21 He is deep into it with some very dangerous people.
01:24:26 Then I'm a what?
01:24:31 Well, we had to get to Barris to set him up.
01:24:34 So how we arranged it was, it grew progressively more and more suspicious that you were an undercover cop,
01:24:41 trying to nail him or use him to get higher.
01:24:44 So we did what you or anyone would have done.
01:24:48 Donna. Yeah, hi. This is a buddy of Bob's, Arctur.
01:24:54 Yeah, listen, he's in a bad way.
01:25:01 Yeah, way bad.
01:25:03 I was wondering if I could ask a favor of you.
01:25:08 You're a sweetheart.
01:25:11 I'm sure he'll appreciate it very much.
01:25:14 Great, thanks.
01:25:16 Good news. Donna Hawthorne said she'd pick you up out front in about five minutes.
01:25:23 You fuckers.

01:26:32 This is not fair, but it has to be this way.
01:26:36 You just-- you gotta just wait it out, just get through it.
01:26:42 And someday, a long time from now, you'll see the way you saw before.
01:26:51 A recognition and some spark in a disguised form will reveal itself to you and guide you.

01:27:51 Living and unliving things are exchanging properties.
01:28:06 The drive of unliving things is stronger than the drive of living things.
01:28:14 The living should never be used to serve the purposes of the dead.
01:28:20 But the dead should, if possible, serve the purposes of the living.
01:28:28 [♪♪♪]
01:28:31 [footsteps]
01:28:43 Hey, good news. I think I got you transferred to one of our farms.
01:28:48 Can I work with animals?
01:28:50 I think you'll be working with plants for a while.
01:28:52 Out in the open where you can touch the ground.
01:28:54 I want to be with something living.
01:28:56 The ground is living. The earth is still alive.
01:28:59 Do you have any agricultural background?
01:29:02 I worked in an office.
01:29:04 Well, you'll be outside from now on.
01:29:07 Hmm.
01:29:09 [♪♪♪]
01:29:12 Your name is Bruce.
01:29:34 My name is Bruce.
01:29:36 We're gonna try you on farming for a period, Bruce.
01:29:41 Okay.
01:29:42 Staff thought you'd be better off.
01:29:45 I think you'll like it here.
01:29:47 I think I'll like it here.
01:29:50 Come on. I'll show you where you're gonna be sleeping.
01:29:54 You like mountains, Bruce?
01:29:57 Look up. Mountains.
01:30:00 No snow, but mountains.
01:30:03 I like mountains.
01:30:05 The air is good here.
01:30:08 I like air.
01:30:10 Yeah.
01:30:12 We all like air, Bruce. We really do.
01:30:15 That we have in common.
01:30:18 4G.
01:30:23 Yours is 4G. Can you remember that?
01:30:25 4G.
01:30:27 Will I be seeing my friends?
01:30:31 What, you mean from back where you were?
01:30:34 The Santa Ana facility?
01:30:36 Mm-hmm. Mike and Laura.
01:30:39 And Mike and Eddie.
01:30:42 The people from the residence facilities,
01:30:45 they don't come out to the farms, Bruce.
01:30:48 See, these are closed operations.
01:30:50 Closed operations.
01:30:52 But you might get back up there a couple times a year.
01:30:56 You know, the gatherings.
01:30:58 Christmas and the next one is Thanksgiving.
01:31:01 Thanksgiving.
01:31:03 We'll see them in three months.
01:31:06 Hey, Audrey.
01:31:21 Glad you could meet.
01:31:24 So tell me, are they getting paranoid about him?
01:31:27 No, not at all. The guy's so burnt out.
01:31:31 And we're still convinced they're growing the stuff.
01:31:34 They have to be. Who else?
01:31:37 I just wonder if it even matters.
01:31:41 It matters, Audrey.
01:31:44 It matters when we can prove that Newt Path
01:31:47 is the one growing, manufacturing and distributing.
01:31:50 How does he look?
01:31:53 I mean, do you think he's gonna be able to pull through for us?
01:31:57 I guess all we can do is hope that when he finally gets in there,
01:32:00 a few charred brain cells will flicker on
01:32:03 and some distant instinct will kick in.
01:32:06 It's just... it's just such a cost to pay.
01:32:10 Yeah. There's no other way to get in there.
01:32:14 I couldn't. Didn't think how long I tried.
01:32:17 They got that place locked up tight.
01:32:19 They're only gonna let a burnt-out husk like Bruce in.
01:32:22 Harmless.
01:32:24 You have to be or they won't take the risk.
01:32:26 Yeah, but to sacrifice someone,
01:32:30 a living person, without them ever knowing it.
01:32:33 I mean, if he'd understood, if he had volunteered.
01:32:36 But he doesn't know, and he never did.
01:32:39 He didn't volunteer for this.
01:32:41 Sure he did. It was his job.
01:32:43 It wasn't his job to get addicted.
01:32:46 We took care of that.
01:32:49 Look, Mike, I gotta get out.
01:32:52 I can't do this again.
01:32:54 I don't want it to end.
01:32:56 I lay in bed at night and I can't sleep,
01:32:59 and I just think, "Shit, we are colder than they are."
01:33:02 I don't think so.
01:33:04 I believe God's M.O. is to transmute evil into good,
01:33:07 and if he's active here, he's doing that now.
01:33:10 Although our eyes can't perceive it.
01:33:12 The whole process is hidden beneath the surface of our reality.
01:33:16 It will only be revealed later.
01:33:19 And even then, the people of the future,
01:33:23 the children's children, will never truly know
01:33:26 this awful time we've gone through
01:33:29 and the losses we took.
01:33:32 Maybe some footnote in a minor history book.
01:33:36 A brief mention with no list of the fallen.

01:34:18 You're seeing the flower of the future.
01:34:28 But not for you, Bruce.
01:34:30 Not for me.
01:34:32 No, you've had too much of a good thing already.
01:34:35 [laughs]
01:34:36 Get up, get up. Stop worshipping.
01:34:39 This isn't your God anymore, although it once was.
01:34:43 But the flower is gone.
01:34:47 No, you just can't see them.
01:34:49 Back to work.
01:34:51 I saw.
01:34:56 Back to work, Bruce.
01:34:59 I saw death rising from the earth,
01:35:08 from the ground itself,
01:35:12 in one blue field.
01:35:17 A present for my friends at Thanksgiving.
