I don't know, Libby. How many times do
you have to tell someone you're not

to make a commitment before they'll
believe you?

No.

I had no choice but to break the whole
thing off.

I'm serious.

I just couldn't take it.

No. I think one of my tires blew.

Yeah, I'm fine. I'll call you when I get
home.

Okay.

Yeah, operator, can you connect me with
the auto club, please?

Just a minute.

Get your hands off me. Come on, come on,
come on. Give me your money. Let go.

Hey, I ain't kidding around, lady.
Where's your money?

Help! Help! Somebody help!

Somebody help!

We

need

some help here.

Dr. Field, what are you doing in the ED?
I'm short -handed again.

Quarter of May 18th.

What do we got here?

Name's Aunt Marie Reynolds.

Police told us some low -light factor in
the head with a pipe.

Breathing's rapid and shallow, but heart
is steady.

Got a new line. On an EEG. Dad, when did
this happen? About an hour ago.

Crosstown traffic's a bitch tonight.

BP's dropping.

She's in a raft.

We're losing her.

Defib now.

Clear.

Clear here.

Crank to 300.

Moving.

Clear. Clear. Again.

To no ground with adrenaline.

Give me 360.

Again.

She's gone doctor.

Again.

At the time of death, for the record.

There is nothing wrong with your
television. Do not attempt to adjust the

picture. We are now controlling the
transmission.

We control the horizontal and the
vertical. We can deluge you with a

channels or expand one single image to
crystal clarity and beyond.

We can shape your vision to anything our
imagination can conceive.

For the next hour, we will control all
that you see and hear.

You are about to experience the awe and
mystery which reaches from the deepest

inner mind to the outer limit.

What happened to me in the Iraqi desert?

was just the beginning.

There is no treatment. Yet here you are.
Now I've been recruited for a new war.

We need a special investigator on cases
involving criminal abuses of science.

But I'm not sure who I'm really fighting
for.

I don't know who you are anymore.

From the producer of The X -Files and
24, Strange World, a sci -fi original

series, premiering Friday at 8 on Sci
-Fi.

The Outer Limits.

Please stand by.

Within each of us, there is an internal
voice that tempers our actions.

But what happens when that inner self
overwhelms the face we show the world?

Good morning.

How are you feeling?

Like an idiot.

I can't believe I argued with that guy
over a lousy 37 bucks.

How are you lucky he didn't have a gun?

God,

I must look like hell.

Did I need stitches?

A few.

The pipe didn't cause much of a
laceration, but it left you with a nasty

hematoma. A bump.

A small price to pay for misplaced
bravado.

I'm afraid there's a little more to it.

What?

Well, the blow severely jarred your
brain.

Your cerebral cortex underwent a
substantial shock.

Well, I feel all right now.

That's quite amazing that you do.

And we lost you on the table last night.

What do you mean?

You had no discernible brain function.

No heartbeat.

You're saying for a few seconds I was
actually dead?

Clinically speaking, yes.

And it was more than a few seconds.

Well, how long?

We're not sure.

Ten, maybe fifteen minutes.

Fifteen minutes? That's not possible, is
it?

Well, yes and no.

Resuscitation after total cessation of
life signs is not unprecedented.

Toddlers have been pulled from the
bottom of icy ponds and survived even

an hour without breathing.

This isn't like that, is it?

Oh, we know for certain, Ann. You have
an extraordinary will to live.

No,

they're beautiful, Libby.

Yeah, it was pretty stupid. Next time
I'll drive on the rim until I can find a

gas station.

Um, yeah, I should be out of here
tomorrow.

I'll stop by the gallery. Maybe we can
grab lunch or something.

Great. I'll see you tomorrow then.

Bye.

Would you mind getting rid of these
flowers? I can see bugs on them. Thank

Hi.

May I come in?

Hi. I got here as soon as I could. I was
in Boston visiting your Uncle Jerry.

That's okay. I couldn't get very much
information at first.

Apparently you were unconscious for a
time.

You could say that.

How are you feeling?

I'll survive.

I always do.

I know you're probably not up to
visitors.

I spoke to that doctor.

What is it, Field? He said you took a
pretty good hit.

Yeah, the human head wasn't...

designed to be whacked with a lead pipe.

I must say, I don't understand why you
would argue with a mugger.

I mean, your life is much more important
than whatever was in that purse.

Mother, I really don't need a lecture
right now.

No, of course not.

I was thinking on the drive here about
that fall you took on the back stairs of

Granbury Street. Remember?

I picked you up and ran all the way to
Children's Hospital.

It was a block and a half.

We were very lucky.

That was one of the reasons Daddy and I
picked that neighborhood.

I'm sorry.

I know you miss him very much.

You know, I'm kind of tired. I think the
sedatives are kicking in.

I just worry about you, that's all.

Is that why I only hear from you on
holidays and birthdays?

Sweetheart, that's not my choice.

Every time I make an effort, let's be
honest, you don't make it particularly

easy.

I mean, it's ridiculous. We live in the
same city. We never see each other. We

never talk. We're both busy. I've got my
life. You've got yours.

This isn't a really great time.

It's never a great time.

I shouldn't be doing this.

I'll try and call you when I get back
home.

Fine.

Isn't there anything I can do?

No.

Knock, knock.

Can I come in?

Hi, you must be Anne's mom. I'm Eric
Tanner. Maybe Anne's mentioned me.

I'll leave you two alone.

Nice to meet you, Eric. You too, Mrs.
Reynolds.

So, how are you feeling?

Fine.

All things considered.

Well, you'll be happy to know they
nailed that guy that assaulted you.

I'm thrilled.

You know,

I'm almost as surprised to see you here
as my mother.

Yeah? Well, I don't give up that easy.

You should know that about me.

Please, Eric, don't make it any harder.

How are you feeling?

Okay, I guess.

What happened?

What do you mean?

Where's Eric?

The young man who came to visit? He left
a few hours ago.

A few hours ago? You're kidding.

Then you ate some lunch and you took a
nap.

You don't remember?

The last thing I remember is saying
hello to Eric.

Ah, the rest of it.

Memory loss is relatively common with
this kind of head injury.

I don't think it's anything to be
worried about.

The test will tell us more.

I hope so.

In the meantime, I think I'd rather be
at home in my own bed.

I can imagine you're eager to leave, but
I'd like to keep you here for a few

more days so we can observe you. Well,
no offense, Doctor, but I'm really not

interested in becoming an article in a
medical journal. You think that's why we

want to keep you here?

If you want to run your tests, I'll come
back for them.

I promise.

Anne, I'm going to be blunt with you.

Your medical records make it quite clear
you've had your share of problems.

Alcohol, substance abuse.

I'm concerned if you go back home, it's
the last thing in the world you need

right now.

Consider me warned.

You're determined?

Absolutely.

I'll need to see you at least twice a
week.

Just until we get this all sorted out.
Fine.

Come on in.

We're serious about getting the hell out
of there. I thought they wouldn't let

you go without a fight.

Hey, hey, hey.

It's so great to have you back.

I, um, just came by to get the rest of
my thing.

I'm sorry?

My thing.

Maybe the trouble of garage sale.

Did I, uh... Missed something here? I
thought that we were going to talk about

it.

I don't know what there is to talk
about. I mean, we've thrashed this thing

death.

Oh, sweetheart, you're losing me here. I
thought that we just discussed that we

were going to give it another shot.

What?

When?

This morning at the hospital.

Erica, I don't remember much of what we
talked about this morning.

Um, the last... 24 hours are kind of a
blur.

Look, if you've had second thoughts,
that's fine. I just wish you were more

straight up about it.

Look, I'm sorry if I led you to believe
otherwise.

I meant what I said the other night.

I'm just not in a position to make any
kind of commitment right now.

Look, what do you think I'm going to do?
Do you think I'm going to swallow you

whole?

Maybe it would be best if you just
packed up my things. Libby can come and

them.

I don't believe that.

You know, you claim it's all about
independence, but you're just scared of

letting somebody in. You're scared of
letting go.

Anything else?

Just good luck.

You know, because if you think that
you're going to find a man, any man,

can live up to that half -saint, half
-Greek god that you've turned your

father's memory into, then, well, you're
going to need it.

Again.

Doctor, please tell me what the hell's
going on inside of me.

Neither MRI or CAT scan were 100 %
conclusive, but we were able to identify

unusual foreign growths you described.

They're extraneous muscle masses.

We think the tissue, at least in its
incipient form, has always been there.

I was born with it?

And it appears you may be carrying some
unformed portions of an absorbed twin.

What?

Let me show you.

There are cases when twins are initially
conceived, one quickly becomes dominant

and the other withers. In some very rare
cases, the dominant twin actually

absorbs those tissues.

My God.

I know it sounds frightening.

It's unbelievable.

The tissue from the latent twin doesn't
form into functioning organs, but rather

rests within the host body.

You have several growths, including...

This one on your spine.

But all of them are completely benign.

But they were moving, Dr. Field, as if
they were alive.

I'm sure it may have felt that way.

But it was a tissue mass, nothing more.

When your brain was jarred, it may have
triggered some involuntary muscle

reflexes, which caused the mass to
shift.

It just doesn't seem possible.

I never even knew I was a twin.

As far as we know, this situation poses
absolutely no medical threat to you.

Great. And we have every confidence your
body will regain its equilibrium.

My body?

I'm sure it doesn't feel like it
anymore.

Hey, Libby Ann. I've been trying you all
night.

Yeah, I'm fine. Back at my place working
on that campaign. Hey, what are you up

to tonight? I was thinking... Oh, the
guy from your gym.

Good for you.

Yeah, yeah, tomorrow's great.

I'll stop by the gallery.

Okay.

Have fun.

I'm not interested in changing Long
Dutton's carrier.

Perfect homecoming.

To me and my friend, Mr. Dan.

Thank you.

So...

Who moved my furniture?

What's all going on?

Hello?

Yes, you have to help me. I think
someone's been in my apartment.

I don't know if anything's been taken. I
just know that somebody's been in here.

Front door.

Yes.

It's still bolted, but...

The

night is mine, Marie.

How could you lie to me all this time? I
was afraid. I thought it might be too

upsetting for you.

And then I wasn't sure how important it
was. I just got back from Rosemary

Hospital. Not only was I a twin, I was a
Siamese twin.

According to this, you agreed to take
part in some kind of experiment that

terminate one of the babies? Try to
understand.

All we wanted was to give the surviving
twin, to give you a normal chance at a

normal life.

And did they tell you that the dying
twin would be partially absorbed into

survivor?

The doctor said it was a slight
possibility.

What choice did I have?

At first they told me I was carrying a
normal set of twins. I was so excited.

And then I was told the babies were
conjoined.

Your father was devastated when he heard
the news. We both were.

We decided we would never burden you
with the truth.

Daddy would never have lied to me.

Certainly didn't have any problem lying
to me.

I don't believe you. You're still trying
to turn me against him. Nothing ever

changes. Your father worshipped you.

That's where his fidelity ended. Stop
it.

You drove him away. You broke his heart.

That's what killed him. I know. That's
what you want to believe.

Of course.

That's why you sent me away to school.
You couldn't bear to be around your

show of a child.

Don't say that.

You never loved Daddy, and you never
loved me.

I always loved you. I did.

You were all I ever had to hang on to.

Every time

I look at you, I have to face the
decision I made all those years

ago.

I consciously took the life of one of my
own daughters.

Did you have a name picked out for my
sister?

Wait, let me guess.

Marie.

When your sister died, I gave you both a
name.

So you could... What?

Always carry a little of her with me?

You succeeded, Mother.

More than you'll ever know.

What's going on?

Hey.

How did I? What happened?

What? Something wrong? How did I get
here?

I don't know what you mean. You showed
up at my door about an hour ago.

Oh, my God.

What? You don't remember?

Are you okay?

No. No, I'm not.

I better go.

Hey, listen. You're in no condition to
leave.

Let's talk about this.

I can't. Not now.

Then when?

You keep sending so many mixed messages,
I don't even know what the hell is

going on anymore. I mean, one day it's
on, the next day it's off.

You gotta stop jerking me around.

I'm sorry, Eric.

I owe you answers.

And you'll get them.

As soon as I find out what they are.

I'm Marie, your sister.

It isn't happening.

It's been a long time, Annie.

You don't exist.

You died in the womb.

Reports of my death have been highly
exaggerated.

This is impossible.

If you want something badly enough,
nothing's impossible.

And you have what I want.

What?

This is my life.

Not anymore.

Leave me alone. Sorry, Annie.

You had your chance, but you made a
mess.

No.

Look,

I'm being stalked from the inside.

I mean, I know it's all in my head, but
I don't know how much more I can take.

Some of it is psychological, but some of
what you're experiencing is

physiological as well.

Meaning? We did an extensive diagnostic
on the mass in your spine, and it turns

out to be something other than random
cell growth.

It's an aggregate of cerebral tissue.

What do you think?

I know it sounds crazy, but it has all
the signs of a growing, functioning

brain.

A brain.

Oh, God.

She's growing inside of me.

You do whatever you have to do to cut
her out of me. Do you understand?

I want it out of me now.

I'm afraid we can't do that.

What do you mean you can't? You don't
expect me to live like this.

Anne, the tissue has integrated filth
into your spinal cord. If we attempt to

remove it, we could end up
incapacitating you.

I could become paralyzed.

It may even kill you.

Could it be that Marie is trying to get
me to kill myself?

Well, that hardly seems likely.

You'd end up killing her, too.

Doctor, I know you said that an
operation was too dangerous, but what if

incapacitated Marie's brain somehow? I
mean, didn't try to cut it out, but made

it so she couldn't think anymore,
couldn't send me these haunting images.

It's too risky.

Why?

This spinal brain, Marie's brain, if you
will, may well have taken over your

autonomic functions.

Breathing, heartbeat.

So the only way I can go on living is to
coexist with her.

It seems that way, yes.

Based on her latest tests, the stronger
her brain gets, the more risk yours

will atrophy.

She's watching me. I'm always watching
me.

Always waiting for a chance. She's
trying to kill me.

She's trying to kill me. She wants me to
die.

I don't want to die.

I don't want to die.

I'm not going to surrender. I'm not
going to surrender. I've got to stop her

now.

What are you doing?

Go away.

I'm worried about you, Anne.

I know what you want.

Do you?

You want me to disappear. You want me
dead.

You don't understand.

Goodbye, Marie. Anne, don't. Listen to
me. I'm not trying to hurt you.

I'm the only reason you're alive.

That's a lie.

Think about it.

You died that night in the emergency
room. Something brought you back.

It wasn't the doctors.

I brought you back.

And when you tried to take those pills,
I'm the one who threw them away.

I have been keeping you alive all this
time.

Why?

Because I care about you.

Because you didn't deserve to die like
that.

Because I love you.

I'm saying, I can feel it.

It's all right.

It's okay.

All I ever wanted was to be happy.

To really love somebody and to have
somebody love me.

You will, Anne.

I promise.

Now it's over. Don't pretend it's not.

Listen to me.

You're not going away.

You'll always be here.

You'll always be a part of me.

That's a promise.

You gave me life.

And now it's my turn.

How much time do I have before I go?

Not long.

There's something I have to do.

I understand.

If only I had known.

But you know now.

That's what matters, isn't it?

Hello, Mother. Please come in.

After our last conversation, I didn't
know if I was going to see you again.

We've got to talk.

I've already said I'm sorry.

I don't know what else I can... No, no,
please.

I have some things I need to say.

Daddy took his life.

My whole world came crashing down.

I couldn't deal with it. I needed
somebody to blame.

I know.

Believe me, I know. Let me finish.

Even though you two had split up, I know
that it was just as hard for you.

I guess we both took our grief and...

We withdrew into ourselves.

Making it so we could never be hurt
again.

But the price we both paid is that we
could never love.

Not another person.

And not each other.

You don't have to say anything else,
Ann. Yes, I do. I need to tell you

What you did before I was born.

I was very brave.

I was very unselfish.

But I'd lost you.

You'll never lose me, Mom.

All I've ever wanted was to chance to
see you with my own eyes and to touch

with my own hands.

To tell you how much you mean to me.

Marie?

There's something different about you.

What?

Tinted contacts, right? Oh, I like it.
Very sexy.

Thanks.

I'm ready.

Without darkness, there would be no
light.

Without error, no sure path to the
truth.

In a world where absolutes reign, what
may be most important?

is finding the balance.
