Jane!

You didn't take your pills again...

C'mon... be a good girl... drink up.

And now try and get some sleep.

Please, Richard, stay here with me.

I have to be in Oxford at 10 in the morning.

I have to check out all the forms... l'll be busy for a while.

No Richard! Please, don't leave, please!

Ok, I'll wait here until you fall asleep.

I can't! I can't!

Jane! Please Jane, look at me!

Oh Richard, help me, please!

C'mon Jane... calm down!

No thanks... Oh damn, it's late! I'm missing the 8:40 train.

I'm very sorry to leave you alone.

Barbara's supposed to call me later...

I bet she'll tell you about her psychiatrist again!

She thinks he could help me...

Sure! He's a quack like all the others, always spouting Freud.

Trying to pull you in with the same old nonsense!

You shouldn't talk like that about Dr. Burton.

After all Barbara works with him and if she appreciates him, it means that...

Oh, sure. I have no problems with your sister

but please Jane, leave psychoanalysis out of it!

But Richard... you don't know what happens to me when I'm sleeping!

It's just weakness. Your body is still weak after the operation.

You don't think I know how you feel about losing your baby?

The baby was also mine and I suffered too!

Goodbye dear... come back soon!

Goodnight, love. It was a fantastic evening.

All the same Richard should be grateful to you. If you hadn't helped him

with that psycho-technical exam, he would never have got his job.

Obviously he holds me responsible for what happened after that...

What do you mean?

Having introduced him to you. What's the stuff he gives to you?

A concentration of vitamins. I feel sick when I take them but...

I think Richard takes himself too seriously.

After all he's just a pharmaceutical salesman, not a doctor.

Don't judge him badly. He just wants to help me.

Giving you all those vitamins?

Taking so many vitamins without medical supervision could be dangerous.

I don't know what to do... I know he loves me, but he can't understand me.

Day after day, it's like I'm falling into a pit.

This is nonsense, Jane! You need a good psychiatrist.

That's why I set up an appointment with Dr. Burton

Sit down dear, he'll see you in a minute.

Jane, come in.

That woman was your mother?

Yes.

How old were you?

Five.

I don't know if you know this, but you began treatment

right where it usually ends.

That is, from the trauma you suffered during childhood.

Don't you think this is a good sign?

I'd like to believe you, but is that really the case?

It's only an interview. Ever spoken with your husband about this problem?

Well... Richard isn't... Richard and I aren't married yet.

And that stops you from confiding in him?

No but... you see, he wouldn't understand.

In his opinion everything comes from the car accident that...

...where I lost my baby.

Stillborn?

Yes.

And from that moment you couldn't have full sexual relations, right?

Yes, that's right, but it isn't the car accident, or even the memory

of the baby that stops me. It's the other thing.

The man with the knife?

Yes, but how can I tell that to Richard?

He'd probably end up hating me. His life with me is already so difficult...

and I don't want to lose him. I have to get better.

Are you afraid of the dark?

No.

Tell me, have you ever felt you were living out your dreams?

Yes. In the waiting room, there was a man... your patient I suppose.

He looked at me with the same eyes that are in my nightmare.

Are you really sure?

He was sitting in the other room!

I'm sorry to contradict you, but I never have my patients wait together.

Come with me please.

But... he was here. I'm sure of that. He's gone.

Apparently.

You saw him, right? He was here, sitting in this armchair.

Yes, sure. He asked for you, but he wasn't one of your patients.

I told him to wait. Maybe he was tired of waiting.

I must apologize, Miss. You were right, there was someone.

However, the point is that, whoever he was, you were scared of him.

In our next meeting we must find out why that happened.

When can I come back, Doctor?

Barbara will take care of the appointment.

For the moment I suggest that you stop taking your husband's vitamins.

You are not ill by any means. You must convince yourself of that.

Your worst enemy is loneliness.

Consider yourself neither crazy nor someone who's seeing things.

Real madmen never think of themselves as crazy.

What do you want from me!

Excuse me.

I can open the door if you want.

After you. I live on the top floor, and you?

I live on the third floor, thanks. I've only been here a few days. I'm Mary.

I'm Jane. Nice to meet you.

I've been living here for three months and I hardly know anyone.

Here in the city it's hard to make friends.

We people from the suburbs haven't learned not to be nosy yet.

Would you like some tea? Tea for me is still a social ritual

I hate having it alone.

I don't know. Maybe I shouldn't.

Waiting for someone?

You're very kind, but my husband is tired when he gets home from work

and I have to make dinner.

Well I don't want to force you, but it's early. It's only 5 o'clock!

Ok, I'll have some tea.

Make yourself at home.

Don't stand there, come in.

At the door you seemed very scared, am I right?

It's true. Someone was following me here.

Me, I'm scared of the time when men won't follow me any more!

How do you know he was a man?

Men have been following women since the world began.

With or without a club.

It's very nice here. How did you fix it up so quickly?

It was already like this. I prefer them already furnished. I just add the mess.

More cookies?

No thanks, I have to go.

I'd like to prepare something for Richard that's not out of a can.

Mary, why don't you come have dinner with us? I'd like that.

Absolutely not! I don't want to come between a couple of newlyweds.

Ok. See you tomorrow. Richard goes to work and I'm all alone.

Would you like have lunch together?

Sure. Here at my place.

I can even make something that's not out of a can.

We could go shopping together... OK?

Right. So... l'll see you at 10 tomorrow morning.

Yes, thanks. Bye, Mary.

Hello?

Miss Jane Harrison?

Yes, who's speaking?

I'm Franciscus Clay, a lawyer. I must see you.

See me?

Yes. Can you come to my office tomorrow at 3:30?

Wait a second...

The address is Rolands House 5

So I'll expect you.

But... what about? Hello?

The eggs!

Jane! What's going on?

Good evening.

I would have preferred you ask my advice before taking her to Dr. Burton.

I don't believe in psychoanalysis. I've never seen anybody come out cured.

On the contrary I think it's just a way

of convincing people that the world is populated only by madmen.

Go on... your logic is amusing.

You should take less care of Jane and more of yourself, Barbara.

Sorry, could you pass me the dress on the chair please?

Why do you hide yourself under this stuff?

You surprise me, Richard. Think I can still take your compliments seriously?

This time it's not even so you can get

a good recommendation for a lousy salesman job.

You've never forgiven me for that, have you?

Janet will continue with Dr. Burton with or without your permission.

Have you ever asked yourself why Janet hasn't agreed to marry you yet?

I've thought about it for a long time.

And I'm sure it's partly your fault too. You treat her like a baby

who still can't make a decision on her own.

Jane is still a slave to her childhood. Maybe that's also my fault

but at the moment you don't give her the reassurance she's looking for.

You and your stupid psychoanalysis books!

Why are you blaming other people for what's your fault?

It's all your fault even according to your own crude logic!

If you hadn't hit that tree with your car, Janet wouldn't have problems now!

I often walk in this park. I like the solitude.

Hear the birds? They are complaining about our being here.

They're very resentful, you know.

Not as much as men are. This might sound strange to you, Mary

but I'm sure that someone is chasing me. Someone coming very deep

from my childhood. Do you believe in that sort of thing?

I believe in a lot more.

Don't worry about it... c'mon!

I had my problems too, not like yours, but maybe more serious.

But I got rid of them.

How?

Do you know what a Black Mass is?

You're scaring me...

It makes sense to be afraid sometimes. You have to find it

and it'll disappear. But... what do you want from me?

Me?

See? You look like a scared little baby without her mom.

Do you really want to get well?

It's all I want.

Don't think about psychiatrists anymore. I know the right person for you.

Who?

My friends don't like questions. They just want trust. They're waiting for you.

When?

Do you really want to come?

When?

Even tonight if you want...

I have a meeting with a lawyer who called me yesterday.

Make sure to be back home at 5.30. I'll be out at the door.

Why so late? What happened? We can't be so late getting there.

But... what's the matter?

That man I was talking about... he tried to...

Rape you?

Kill me!

I think it's better put off for another time... let's go to my house.

No... I'm afraid I'm going crazy! Let's go where you wanted, right now.

But you drive. I couldn't.

Ok.

Oh Richard, my love, my dear love!

Now everything's like before, Jane.

Yes but... I don't know... lt doesn't seem real to me...

And me? Do you think I'm real?

Tomorrow I'll take the day off. We'll go out to lunch. Would you like that?

When I told Barbara that I'm not going to Burton anymore she hung up.

Let's not talk about it anymore. Sorry, I have to phone a client.

You're here! Can you tell me what happened to you?

What are you hiding behind you? So now you rummage in my books...

And you? You read this stuff now?

I bought it in a used bookstore. Could you explain why you ran away like that?

And where were you?

The phone was broken. I had a phone meeting with a client in Liverpool.

I had to call him from another phone nearby... what's so odd about that?

Nothing... nothing...

Welcome back, Jane. We were expecting you.

She offers herself to you! Free from her fears... forever!

You're free Jane.

Now that woman doesn't exist any more. She gave you to us.

Now she's free not to exist.

No, Mary!

It's time to say goodbye Jane. Be happy!

No, Mary, I don't want to!

Now you're one of us, Jane.

You can't turn your back on us any more!

Come, he's waiting for you.

No, this can't be real! It's horrible!

Careful what you say!

What have I done?

Did you drug me?

Or is it just a nightmare...

It's all a nightmare.

Where's Mary?

With us you won't be alone any more! You belong to us forever, Jane.

Where is Mary? I want to see her!

As you wish. Mary wanted to be free.

Anyone who wants to go away has to bring a new adept.

Mary brought you and now she's free.

Permanently.

Take care of her.

You were sleeping so soundly that I didn't want to wake you.

See you tonight. I love you very much. Richard.

Mary! It's not possible! It couldn't be real!

Where's Mary?

She lives here! She must be here!

Sorry? How dare you barge into my home!

A woman named Mary lives here... Where is she?

Look, I don't know who you are and what you want, but I won't answer

anyone who barges into my house like this! But... Are you all right?

It's OK... it's over. I'm sorry, but I was here with a woman...

The same furniture... Everything... I couldn't have dreamt it!

I had the furniture put in last week, but I got here just last night.

Maybe you met a person from the agency... they took care of everything...

Wait!

Here's the address, you can ask them.

Thanks. Sorry for my behavior but... I had no way of knowing...

You can stay here a while if you want until you feel better...

No thanks. I've bothered you enough.

Hi, love, how are you? Unfortunately we went on until late.

I'll be there tomorrow morning... Hello? It's me, Richard... What's going on?

Oh Richard! Come home!

Jane? What happened to you?

Come back Richard!

Sure, sure, with the first train... are you listening? Say something!

I can't now... but everything will be all right if you come back!

Stay home, don't move. Wait for me!

Ok, but hurry!

Doctor's Burton's office?

Sorry. I'm Barbara's sister. Is she in? I tried her house but nobody's there.

Barbara's out of town. The Doctor sent her to take care of a patient.

Wait! Don't hang up!

I'd like to speak with Dr. Burton.

Call tomorrow morning after 8 a.m.

It's very urgent... please! I'm Dr. Burton's patient. I'm not well, I need help.

Ok, hold on.

Yes, can I help you?

A man like the one in my dream is following me! But it's not a nightmare.

He's really here! Please help me, doctor!

Calm down, Miss. Come to my office. You can explain everything in person.

I'm scared, I'm scared to death!

Well, I'll send the nurse with my car. She'll be there in ten minutes.

Now calm down and wait for her.

OK, but hurry up!

Ten minutes, Jane.

It looks like a cabalistic symbol; like that used by the Jews to indicate God.

It was used in the Middle Ages

by the witches and charlatans for their black magic rituals.

In that castle that symbol was everywhere...

So I wasn't dreaming... I really killed that woman!

Don't be in such a hurry! Everything could be just a nightmare...

Like what happened tonight. You're in a clear state of emotional shock

so it's impossible to judge how much is just a figment of your imagination.

So this is just a hallucination as well?

No, Miss, believe me! The only thing you need is dreamless sleep.

Take two of these pills and tomorrow we can talk about all this calmly.

But I am calm, Doctor! OK, I'm not calm, but I have no intention of sleeping.

You treat me like a mythomaniac, like a madwoman!

No, don't say that! Trust me and I'll get you out of this. I promise.

Don't send me away! I don't want to go home without Richard!

No, sure. I'll bring you to somewhere quiet.

Are you cold?

Yes, a little bit.

Why does your husband leave you alone so often?

You know... he works. He's a salesman. He has to be on the road.

Any other problems between you and him other than what you've said?

I don't know, money problems... sorry, but indiscretion is part of my job.

This is my country house. It's closed in winter. We're here in the summer.

Only the keepers are there now.

Good evening.

Let me introduce you to Mr. May. He and his wife will be glad to help you.

It's my fault we're coming so late...

Don't worry Miss! You can get used to it. I don't know if the Doctor told you.

Yes, don't worry about it. I think you can find a room for tonight.

You're safe here. Unfortunately I have to get back to my office now.

I have to check my notes for a convention I'm going to.

Thanks, Doctor.

Call me tomorrow as soon as you wake up. Tonight I'll be at my office.

OK, Goodnight.

There's a letter for you!

Nobody writes me...

To me neither! It's for my wife.

Stop it Boo Boo. We don't have a chance with that man anyway!

Barbara? Is Jane with you?

Jane? No, I was out of town. I got back at dawn. Why? What happened?

Last night I called and she was upset. I don't know why. She wouldn't say.

You shouldn't leave her alone... Since you don't believe in psychiatrists!

For God's sake Barbara! This is no the time to make an issue of it!

Call your doctor and let me know as soon as possible if he has any news!

OK. Don't worry.

Miss May?

He's here! He killed them!

What are you saying, Miss? OK, I'm on my way. Calm down... Right away!

Sorry, I have to go.

Doctor... if you know anything...

I don't, but there's nothing to be worried about yet.

Maybe she left early this morning... She'll be back soon.

Wait a second...

It was your sister on the phone.

I understood that. What did she want?

She was scared. She's afraid of being killed. I thought

it was better not to tell him the truth. I don't like that man.

Maybe it's just a feeling, but I don't trust him at all.

When Jane was with me she was fine. Maybe he's the one who...

I don't know. Let me get to your sister. After, we'll see what can be done.

But he has a right to know. Try to make up something.

You can't repudiate us Jane! You should have understood that by now!

Look at this knife... You recognize it? It's the one that killed your mother...

Your mother tried to leave us years ago. It's the one you killed Mary with!

No it's not true!

You've crossed the borders of reality, Jane. You can't go back.

Now the truth is within you!

Go away, damn you! Go away!

So you have to die! It's the only way to leave us... And you know it.

There's no escape now! You belong to us!

Doctor! Doctor Burton!

You have a mark on your skin... but you've a deeper mark on your heart

in your flesh and in your blood... like your mother!

Stop!

Who is it?

It's me.

What do you want?

So you know!

Yes.

How?

You shouldn't have shown yourself naked that day.

What do you mean?

People marked like you shouldn't ever show their naked bodies...

I wanted you to see me! I couldn't allow that hysterical woman to take you!

You don't need that woman, you need me! Look at me Richard!

I'm yours Richard... and you've always known it. Don't worry about Jane...

She'll understand someday... She never gave you anything... she couldn't.

She had to pay for our mother's betrayal.

The roots of our faith lie far away.

You can be part of us if you want.

You won't be a useless salesman going traveling from door to door.

You'll become whatever you want. We're much stronger than you imagine.

This explains why you wanted to get rid of Jane.

I'd like to have a word with that woman...

I'm sorry, Officer, but they're administrating a sedative.

Just few seconds...

It's better she rests... She can't listen to you now.

Jane? Do you hear me?

They didn't want me to come in but I did.

We must escape Richard! That man came back!

He's here, I've seen him! Oh Richard... take me away!

OK, hold on to me. We'll go out the main door... Nobody will stop us.

Get dressed!

C'mon... hold onto me.

Damn! They must have left the door open. Wait here.

Help that woman.

You take care of the body.

What happened?

That woman... it seems she killed her husband.

Make way...

A mysterious case...

Officer! Is that woman the killer?

Just some info...

Jane? Do you hear me? Answer me!

At last! The officer let me see you.

I don't know what's real any more! Richard...

Maybe I'm dreaming right now and you're not here... You're not here!

No Miss, you weren't dreaming. But it's all over now!

George Harris, Glenda Scott, David Means, Mark Corgan, Recognize 'em?

Betty Ryan, Sylvester Cole, Clelia Morgan, also known as Mary.

Ex actress, but most of all drug pusher and addict.

We thought she was dead years ago but her body's been found

in the cellar of the castle with the other victims.

What happened to the others?

In jail, except, of course, for the dead ones, the story turns your stomach.

Unfortunately we're still missing Gerald McBrian, the High Priest

a regular at all the asylums for the criminally insane...

But don't worry, we'll catch him!

What about Barbara?

Barbara committed suicide. She was the diabolical mind behind the sect.

She exploited their rites for her own criminal purposes.

Send Clay in.

It seems the man who killed your mother died months ago in New Zealand

and named you and your sister heirs to a decent fortune.

The lawyer will tell you the details.

Good morning. I called you, Miss, but you didn't come to the meeting.

I have also written to you... it was easier to get in touch with your sister

but I also needed your consent.

We're talking about 300,000 pounds. Here's the will.

Now that my sister's committed suicide... Do I get her share?

Of course.

So... If I were dead...

Everything would have gone to your sister.

Today we begin to look for another house. What about Buckingham Palace?

Elevator! Damn! They left the door open. Wait for me here.

Oh my God! I've already lived this moment... Richard, stop!

You killed Barbara! You must die!

You killed Barbara... I've always known that... I don't know why...

Like now, when I knew that man would try to kill you in the elevator.

Oh Richard! I'm scared of not being myself any more... Help me!
