[RATTLING]

HOLD UP.

WHAT'S THAT?

[WHEELS RATTLING]

OH, NO... THE DEATH CART.

NO...

HURRY! HURRY!

OH, LORD, GIVE ME STRENGTH.

[EKG BEEPS]

Man: NO! NO!

UNH! UNH! LET ME GO!

NO! LET ME GO!

OHH...MARTHA!

[MOANING]

[RATTLING]

OH!

AH...

OH...AAH...

[EKG FLATLINE TONE]

Man: I WAS LAYING OUT THE HELMET AND PADS

DOWN BY HIS LOCKER,

AND THAT'S WHEN HE TOLD ME.

WHAT'S THAT, JOSH?

HE'S TELLING ME

HE'S NOT GONNA BE PLAYING NEXT YEAR.

CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT, JIMMY?

A TOUGH KID LIKE DON MEREDITH?

DON MEREDITH DID RETIRE.

NO.

YES.

REALLY?

YES, SIR.

WHEN WAS THIS?

UH...30 YEARS AGO.

WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME

WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT BEFORE I LOST THOSE 30 YEARS?

YOU WERE TRYING TO EXPLAIN

WHY YOU HAD ASKED JIMMY TO COME OUT WITH ME TODAY, DADDY.

YEAH, RIGHT.

THERE WAS SOMETHING I WANTED TO TALK TO JIMMY ABOUT,

AND I PUT IT DOWN

ON THIS TAPE RECORDER YOU GAVE ME, PAULA,

AND I PUT IT OVER HERE.

AND I PUT IT IN HERE.

NOW, I KNOW I DID.

I--I MEAN,

I THINK I DID...

UH...OH, NO...

TIME'S JUST ABOUT UP FOR VISITING HOURS, SIR.

Josh: GO AWAY!

HEY, YOU WANT TO GIVE US A COUPLE OF MINUTES?

HOW ARE THINGS GOING, JOSH?

THEY TREATING YOU ALL RIGHT AROUND HERE?

I DON'T KNOW, JIMMY.

HALF THE TIME I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT I HAD FOR BREAKFAST.

THIS ALZHEIMER'S GOOD AT THAT.

DADDY, PLEASE...

IT'S ALL RIGHT IF YOU DON'T REMEMBER, JOSH.

WE LOVE YOU. WE'LL DO THE REMEMBERING.

WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR TIME WITH THE COWBOYS,

YOU JUST CALL ON TRIVETTE, ALL RIGHT?

I JUST CALL ON "GO LONG" TRIVETTE.

HA HA! YEAH.

THANK YOU.

I'M SORRY I WASTED YOUR TIME.

COMING WAY OUT HERE.

NO. NOBODY WASTED MY TIME, PAULA.

LISTEN, FOR 4 YEARS,

YOUR FATHER WAS MORE TO ME

THAN JUST THE EQUIPMENT MANAGER ON AMERICA'S TEAM,

ALL RIGHT?

IT'S JUST NOT FAIR

THAT SOMETHING TERRIBLE LIKE THIS

HAPPENS TO SOMEONE LIKE...

HEY...

DID I SAY, "NOT FAIR"?

YEAH, YOU DID, BUT THAT'S ALL RIGHT, YOU KNOW.

SOMETIMES LIFE'S NOT FAIR.

YEAH, BUT...

IT DOESN'T MAKE IT ANY EASIER FOR ME TO ACCEPT.

[HUMMING]

Orderly: HEY, YOU OLD BAT.

NO DANCING IN THE HALL.

DON'T...

HEY. HEY.

DON'T YOU THINK YOU'RE BEING

A LITTLE ROUGH THERE, SIR?

JUST DOING MY JOB, RANGER.

IT'S TIME FOR HER MEDS,

AND ALL SHE WANTS TO DO IS DANCE.

THE ETERNAL DANCE OF LIFE!

STOP DANCING,

AND YOU SHALL RETURN TO DUST POSTHASTE.

WOULD YOU CARE TO DANCE, YOUNG MAN?

YES, I WOULD,

BUT MAYBE YOU SHOULD TAKE YOUR MEDICATION.

OH.

OK.

IF YOU SAY SO.

LAST NIGHT WAS THE NINTH PATIENT WE'VE LOST

SINCE WE BEGAN THE NEW ROUND OF TESTING.

SHH SHH SHH SHH.

THE BEDSIDE MANNER AROUND HERE

COULD USE SOME IMPROVEMENT.

YEAH, I SEE THAT.

WE'VE GOT TO SLOW DOWN, JANET.

I AM VERY CONCERNED.

SOMEONE IS BOUND TO CATCH ON.

OH! RELAX, JOHN.

NOBODY'S GONNA CATCH ANYTHING.

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT OLD PEOPLE HERE.

OLD PEOPLE DIE.

IT'S A FACT OF LIFE.

BUT, JANET--

DON'T "JANET" ME.

I'VE STAKED EVERYTHING ON THIS.

MY PROFESSIONAL REPUTATION,

EVERY CENT I'VE GOT--

ALL INVESTED IN YOUR RESEARCH,

ALL BECAUSE OF YOUR PROMISE

THAT WE WOULD HAVE A PRODUCT

FOR THE PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES,

A PRODUCT, JOHN,

THAT WOULD GUARANTEE US MILLIONS.

AND HOW LONG DID YOU SAY

IT WOULD TAKE, JOHN?

A YEAR.

IT'S BEEN ALMOST 2.

ALZHEIMER'S IS PROVING TO BE

MUCH MORE GENETICALLY COMPLEX

THAN I THOUGHT.

I'M DOING MY BEST.

THEN YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO FIND A NEW BEST,

BECAUSE FAILURE ISN'T AN OPTION.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

WHAT?

TROUBLE.

Josh on tape: PAULA, I'M TAPING THIS

LIKE YOU TOLD ME TO, HONEY.

I-IT'S BAD HERE,

REAL BAD.

MONROE AND DANIELS,

THEY BOTH IN ON IT.

THEY GOT THIS...

THIS DEATH CART, AND WHEN IT COMES...

IT--IT COME...

WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?

WHY CAN'T I REMEMBER?

PEOPLE HAVE DIED.

THAT'S IT. GOT TO REMEMBER THAT.

ALL BECAUSE OF THAT DEATH CART.

HEH HEH HEH HEH!

NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!

NO! NO!

NO! NO! WAIT!

JOSH...

THAT'S A GOOD BOY.

NO!

Trivette: I WENT TO SEE PAULA'S DAD THIS WEEKEND.

HE WANTED TO TALK TO ME ABOUT SOMETHING.

ABOUT WHAT?

I DON'T KNOW. HE SAYS, "PAULA, GO FIND JIMMY.

"BRING HIM UP HERE.

I WANT TO TALK TO HIM ABOUT SOMETHING."

I GO UP THERE.

HE FORGETS.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT HE WANTED?

NO.

I THINK IT'S SERIOUS, THOUGH.

YOU KNOW, AND ANOTHER THING...

I BELIEVE THAT CHEROKEE STUFF OF YOURS

IS BEGINNING TO RUB OFF ON ME, YOU KNOW,

LIKE WHEN YOU GET THAT WEIRD FEELING.

IT MIGHT BE CRAZY,

BUT IT ENDS UP BEING TRUE.

DID YOU GET THAT FEELING AT QUIET REST?

ABSOLUTELY. RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF MY SHOULDER BLADES,

LIKE SOMETHING'S WRONG.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

SOMETHING'S BAD.

JEEZ!

WALKER, MAN! THIS IS FRUSTRATING.

[RING]

YEAH. JIMMY.

WHAT?

YEAH. I'M SORRY.

I'LL BE THERE AS SOON AS I CAN.

SO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IT,

AND NOW THIS HAPPENS.

PAULA'S FATHER?

JOSH DIED LAST NIGHT.

PEOPLE AT THE NURSING HOME

SAY IT WAS A HEART ATTACK.

SHE WANTS ME TO RUN HER UP THERE.

TELL HER I'M SORRY.

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

OHH!

Janet: ALZHEIMER'S CAN LEAD

O INTENSE DEPRESSION AND MELANCHOLIA.

WE SEE THAT HERE ALL THE TIME.

DON'T WE, DR. DANIELS?

Dr. Daniels: YES, ABSOLUTELY.

WE HAVE FOUND

THAT THIS HIGH LEVEL OF STRESS CAN RESULT

IN CARDIAC ARREST

AND, SOMETIMES, EVEN DEATH.

WHAT DO YOU THINK, DOCTOR?

DANIELS?

HMM? WHAT DO YOU THINK?

OH. WELL, I AGREE WITH DR. MONROE.

CARDIAC ARREST BROUGHT ON

BY AN ACUTE ANXIETY ATTACK.

WELL, WE'LL SEE WHAT THE MEDICAL EXAMINER SAYS

AFTER THE AUTOPSY.

BY ALL MEANS, MS. LEONARD,

IF IT WILL MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER.

YES,

IT--IT WILL MAKE ME FEEL BETTER. YES.

WELL, THEN, WE'LL ARRANGE TO--

I'LL HAVE THE CORONER PICK UP THE BODY.

THANK YOU.

LET'S GET YOU OUT OF HERE.

WE ARE SO SORRY

FOR YOUR LOSS.

MY GOD, SHE'S SO BEAUTIFUL.

AN AUTOPSY?

[GRUNTS]

OF ALL THE ROTTEN LUCK.

A MEDDLING TEXAS RANGER.

NONE OF THE OTHER FAMILIES

EVEN THOUGHT TO ASK ABOUT AN AUTOPSY.

WHAT IF THE NEW COMPOUND

SHOWS UP DURING THE AUTOPSY?

IT WON'T PROVE A THING.

SO YOU REALLY THINK

SOMETHING'S WRONG AT QUIET REST?

THAT'S WHAT MY NOSE IS TELLING ME.

WELL, HERE.

WHAT'S THIS?

I RAN A CHECK

ON ALL SUDDEN DEATHS AT SENIOR CARE FACILITIES

FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS.

SO YOU TOOK MY CHEROKEE SERIOUSLY.

WELL, YOU NEVER IGNORE THE SPIRIT TALK

OF ANOTHER MAN'S SOUL, TRIVETTE.

CHECK THE LAST PAGE.

THE QUIET REST DEATH RATE

IS 27% HIGHER

THAN ANY OTHER COMPARABLE FACILITY.

YEAH.

AH. JUST THE GUYS I WAS LOOKING FOR.

I JUST FINISHED THE AUTOPSY.

JOSHUA PATRICK LEONARD DIED OF AN EMBOLISM,

BASICALLY AN AIR BUBBLE

THAT ENTERS THE BLOODSTREAM AND SOMEHOW

FOUND ITS WAY TO HIS HEART.

IT'S A FREAKY THING.

NURSING HOME SAID IT WAS A HEART ATTACK.

THEY WERE WRONG.

OR THEY LIED TO ME.

COULD IT BE HOMICIDE?

COULD'VE BEEN,

BUT CONSIDERING THE NUMBER OF INJECTIONS

HE WAS RECEIVING, IMPOSSIBLE TO PROVE.

BUT I DID FIND A TRACE

OF A SUBSTANCE CLOSELY RESEMBLING

PSL-130 IN THE BLOODSTREAM.

WHAT IS THAT, EXACTLY?

PSL-130 IS AN EXPERIMENTAL DRUG

BANNED BY THE F.D.A.

BEFORE IT WAS OUTLAWED, IT WAS USED

AS A COUNTERAGENT AGAINST ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE.

SO WHY WAS IT BANNED?

WELL, THE PEOPLE USING THE DRUG

SHOWED SIGNS OF IMPROVEMENT, BUT...

THE SIDE EFFECTS WERE DEVASTATING.

SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER RATES

OF STROKES AND HEART ATTACKS,

UNEXPLAINED SEIZURES...

YOU MEAN, EXACTLY WHAT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING

AT QUIET REST.

EXACTLY.

ALEX, HONEY, THIS IS PLAIN AS THE NOSE

ON YOUR SWEET FACE.

THOSE QUACKS AT QUIET REST

WERE USING HUMAN BEINGS AS GUINEA PIGS.

JOSH FOUND OUT ABOUT IT.

THEY PUT A BUBBLE IN HIS HEART TO SHUT HIM UP.

C.D., THAT IS AN AWFUL BIG ASSUMPTION

WITH NO PROOF.

WELL, ACTUALLY, TRIVETTE AND I THINK

C.D.'s ONTO SOMETHING HERE.

WHAT ABOUT EVIDENCE?

C.D.: GO OUT AND DIG IT UP.

THERE'S NO MYSTERY TO IT, SWEETHEART.

C.D., COULD TRIVETTE AND I

TALK TO YOU FOR A MINUTE?

SURE.

WELL, YOU KNOW,

I'VE NOTICED THAT YOU'VE BEEN LOOKING...

EXTREMELY TIRED LATELY.

I'VE NOTICED IT, TOO. TIRED?

LIKE WORKING ALL THE HOURS AROUND HERE

IS STARTING TO GET TO YOU.

I THINK THE THING YOU NEED RIGHT NOW

IS A GOOD REST.

GO SOMEPLACE WHERE PEOPLE CAN TAKE CARE OF YOU.

ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?

I NEED SOMEONE TO TAKE CARE OF ME

LIKE A HOG NEEDS A SIDESADDLE.

I KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS ARE UP TO.

YOU'RE GONNA SEND ME IN DEEP COVER OUT THERE,

AREN'T YOU?

BUT WAIT A MINUTE.

THAT'S AN OLD FOLKS' HOME.

WELL, CAN YOU... PRETEND

TO ACT OLD? YOU KNOW, ACT--

OH, YOU KNOW I CAN.

REMEMBER TYLER, WHEN YOU PUT ME IN DEEP COVER?

YEAH, I DO REMEMBER. THAT'S WHY WE WANT YOU FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT.

I CAN DO IT.

WHAT'S THE SETUP, GUYS?

YOU'RE GOING TO BE A NEW PATIENT.

YOU'RE GOING IN AS MY GRUMPY OLD FATHER-IN-LAW.

SUFFERING FROM THE EARLY STAGES OF ALZHEIMER'S.

I CAN DO IT.

Alex: WHO WOULD BE THE DAUGHTER

OF THIS GRUMPY OLD MAN?

GUESS WHO?

[LAUGHS]

I'M GAME.

BUT THERE IS ONE THING.

WHAT'S THAT?

YOU'VE GOT TO GO IN...

PREGNANT.

PREGNANT!

Walker: DR. MONROE?

OH.

MR. HAYES, I DIDN'T EXPECT YOU BACK

FROM YOUR TOUR OF THE FACILITY SO SOON.

HOW IS YOUR FATHER DOING?

WELL, AN ORDERLY'S SHOWING HIM AROUND THE GROUNDS.

OH, MS. HAYES, PLEASE,

WON'T YOU COME AND HAVE A SEAT?

MAY I GET YOU SOMETHING TO DRINK?

OH, NO, THANK YOU.

JUST...SITTING DOWN WOULD BE GREAT.

WELL, IS IT A BOY OR A GIRL?

A GIRL. A BOY.

I MEAN, WE DIDN'T FIND OUT.

WE WANTED IT TO BE A SURPRISE.

PAUL HERE WANTS A BOY,

AND I WANT A GIRL.

WELL, HOW FAR ALONG ARE YOU?

8 MONTHS.

OH.

WELL, IN A MONTH, YOU'LL KNOW.

YES.

AND...

THAT'S EXACTLY THE REASON WHY

WE WANTED TO PUT--

I MEAN, ADMIT MY FATHER HERE.

YES.

I WAS READING THE ADMITTANCE PAPERS.

C.D.: I DON'T WANT TO GO!

HE IS RATHER FEISTY, ISN'T HE?

IT'S REALLY THE ALZHEIMER'S.

I MEAN, HE'S A WONDERFUL MAN.

OF COURSE, BUT...

I CAN UNDERSTAND YOU WOULD BE CONCERNED,

WITH THE BABY ON THE WAY,

ABOUT HIS VIOLENT AND ERRATIC BEHAVIOR.

WE'LL TAKE GOOD CARE OF HIM, MS. HAYES.

BELIEVE ME.

WE HAVE TO THINK OF THE BABY.

YOU'RE DOING THE RIGHT THING.

WOW...

HE'S KICKING.

OHH...

HOW EXCITING!

YEAH...

HE'S KICKING? SHEESH.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU'RE PUSHING ME, SON.

THE EXIT TO THIS MAUSOLEUM IS THIS WAY!

WE'RE GOING TO YOUR ROOM, MR. CARLTON,

NOT TO THE EXIT.

NO! NO! I DON'T HAVE A ROOM!

I DON'T WANT A ROOM HERE!

I DON'T WANT TO STAY IN THIS LOONY BIN!

NO WAY! NO HOW!

I DON'T DIG IT WHEN PEOPLE GIVE ME A HARD TIME...

AND I ESPECIALLY DON'T DIG IT

WHEN OLD PEOPLE GIVE ME A HARD TIME.

YOU UNDERSTAND,

MR. CARLTON?

I UNDERSTAND.

THAT'S GOOD.

'CAUSE IF YOU KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT,

THEN I WON'T HAVE TO HURT YOU.

GOT IT?

I--I GOT IT.

FINALLY GOT ME UNDER LOCK AND KEY!

FINALLY GOT ME ON ICE, EH?

IT'S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD, DAD.

DAD. DON'T YOU CALL ME DAD, YOU SNAKE IN THE GRASS!

HE'S A SNAKE IN THE GRASS!

SNAKE IN THE GRASS!

DADDY...

DADDY, PLEASE!

[DOOR SHUTS]

SNAKE IN THE GRASS?

PART OF THE ROLE.

WELL, I'LL SAY!

HA HA! THESE PEA-BRAINED BULLIES...

PUSH AROUND ALL THESE OLD FOLKS

THAT CAN'T DEFEND THEMSELVES.

I TELL YOU, CORDELL, IT'S BURNING ME, AND THAT'S THE TRUTH.

JUST DON'T SHOW IT, C.D.

I WON'T. I'M JUST AS ANXIOUS TO GET THESE GUYS AS YOU ARE.

YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR--

ANY PAPERWORK THAT'S GONNA VERIFY OUR SUSPICION

ABOUT THEIR ILLEGAL TESTING.

OR A SAMPLE OF THAT PSL-130

THAT WAS IN JOSH

AND ANY KIND OF TESTIMONY THAT I CAN SQUEEZE OUT

OF THESE OLD FOLKS.

YEAH. NOW, TAKE THIS...

AND...THIS.

WELL, I CAN UNDERSTAND THE CELLULAR PHONE.

THEY COULD MONITOR A CALL, BUT...

CORDELL, IS THIS SO DANGEROUS I NEED A BIBLE?

THERE'S A TRANSMITTER IN THE BINDING.

JUST PRESS "HOLY."

OH...

[BEEPING]

WHOOP.

[BEEPING STOPS]

WELL, IT WORKS. C.D.: GOOD.

OK. BE CAREFUL.

I WILL. YOU CAN DEPEND ON ME.

YOU KNOW THAT.

ALL RIGHT, YOU.

BYE-BYE.

AND REMEMBER: YOU'RE OLD.

SMART ALECK.

Trivette: HEY.

EVERYTHING OK?

YEAH. C.D.'s IN.

BOY, YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT THAT PLACE, JIMMY.

I DO NOT LIKE IT.

[CELL PHONE RINGS]

HELLO.

IS HE GONNA BE OK?

WELL, HE'S AN OLD PRO, TRIVETTE.

YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.

HE'S NOT IN THE TEXAS RANGER HALL OF FAME FOR NOTHING.

Walker: THAT'S RIGHT.

THANK YOU.

OF THE 9 PATIENTS THAT DIED

UNDER SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES,

5 OF THE FAMILIES HAVE AGREED TO EXHUME THE BODIES.

WE'LL JUST TRY TO GET COURT ORDERS FOR THE REMAINING 4.

AND IF WE CAN FIND TRACES OF PSL-130...

GIVE US PROBABLE CAUSE FOR A SEARCH WARRANT.

Walker: YEAH.

LISTEN, GOD...

I HATE TO BRING THIS UP,

BUT ALL THESE CONVERSATIONS WE'VE BEEN HAVING LATELY,

THEY'RE SO ONE-SIDED.

MAYBE IT'S ME, MY EARS.

I DON'T HEAR SO WELL ANYMORE.

BUT I SEEM TO BE THE ONLY ONE

DOING THE TALKING.

AND AFTER ALL THESE WEEKS

AND EVERYTHING THAT'S BEEN GOING ON IN HERE...

I'M BEGINNING TO WONDER ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING?

[WIND BLOWING]

I'LL TAKE THAT

AS A SIGN.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU.

I WON'T LET YOU DOWN.

[CRASH]

OH! OH...OH...

ONE OF THOSE LITTLE PLASTIC TOYS,

YOU KNOW, THE KIND YOU GET AT A FAST-FOOD RESTAURANT...

SOLD FOR 26,000 BUCKS.

JUST A LITTLE PIECE OF PLASTIC.

MAN, I NEED TO START EATING OUT MORE OFTEN.

[ALARM BELL RINGING]

DAMN!

OH, NO. OH, NO.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]

[HORN HONKING]

WILL YOU HELP ME? WOULD YOU HELP?

PLEASE...HELP ME. HELP ME, PLEASE!

WILL SOMEBODY HELP ME, PLEASE?

HELP ME, UH...

WAIT A MINUTE. WAIT A MINUTE.

CALM DOWN. CALM DOWN. HOLD ON.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT? ARE YOU OK? HOLD ON.

HE'LL BE FINE!

IT'S OK. HE'S ONE OF THE PATIENTS.

COME ON, MR. WILSON. IT'S TIME FOR YOUR MEDICATION.

OH, PLEASE HELP...

IT'S GONNA BE OK.

[MR. WILSON MOANING]

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

TV: HA HA! IS THAT FANTASTIC OR WHAT?

I WOULDN'T HAVE BELIEVED IT

IF IT HADN'T BEEN ON MY OWN SHOW!

LET'S GO SEE HOW ANN'S DOING,

ALL RIGHT? COME ON!

HOW'RE WE DOING?

GOOD.

I DO RUMBA. I DO TANGO.

OH, I KNOW THEM ALL.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO DANCE?

DO YOU DO THE TUNA,

YOU OLD BAT?

COME ON, EVERYBODY,

LET'S SHOW HER HOW TO DO THE TUNA.

[IMITATES CHOKING]

THAT'S ENOUGH, FISHER.

WHY DON'T YOU SIT AND WATCH SOME TV, MAISIE?

SORRY. TO STOP DANCING

IS TO RETURN TO DUST

POSTHASTE.

OH, DR. DANIELS. DR. DANIELS?

YES, MR. COLLINSWOOD?

THAT NEW...INJECTION THAT YOU GAVE ME,

IT'S CAUSING ME TERRIBLE HEADACHES,

AND IT MAKES ME NAUSEOUS.

WELL, I'M SORRY TO HEAR THAT, BUT...

I--I KNOW--I KNOW

YOU SAID THERE WOULD BE SIDE EFFECTS,

BUT THESE ARE GETTING PRETTY BAD.

MR. COLLINSWOOD,

YOU REMEMBERED I MENTIONED SIDE EFFECTS.

ISN'T THAT A DEFINITE IMPROVEMENT FOR YOU?

YES. HA HA HA!

THAT WAS--THAT WAS...

ALMOST A WEEK AGO,

AND I REMEMBER IT CLEAR AS A BELL!

THAT STUFF YOU'RE USING IS WORKING.

YEAH.

I REALLY REMEMBER IT.

CLEAR AS A BELL!

YEAH!

YOU PROMISED WE WOULD DANCE--

GET OUT OF MY WAY, YOU NUTTY OLD BROAD,

OUT OF MY WAY!

NO MORE!

I AIN'T KIDDING AROUND, SPACE GIRL! YOU UNDERSTAND?

NEED SOME HELP, DERRICK?

HE DOESN'T,

BUT YOU MIGHT!

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

WALKER. C.D.: HEY, CORDELL.

HOW'RE YOU DOING, C.D.? HAVE YOU DUG UP ANYTHING?

I DON'T HAVE A THING TO GO TO COURT WITH.

NOT YET, AT LEAST.

BUT THEY'RE DEFINITELY

TRYING OUT NEW DRUGS ON PATIENTS.

I CAN'T PROVE THE DRUGS ARE THE ILLEGAL KIND,

NOT UNTIL I GET INSIDE A CERTAIN LOCKED ROOM.

WELL, YOU BE CAREFUL.

OH, DON'T YOU WORRY ABOUT ME, CORDELL.

I'M SHARP AS EVER,

PROBABLY SHARPER.

I KNOW YOU ARE. STILL, BE CAREFUL.

I'LL GIVE YOU A CALL TOMORROW.

OK.

WHO ARE YOU, MR. CARLTON?

I BEG YOUR PARDON, MADAM.

YOU DON'T BELONG IN HERE,

SO WHO ARE YOU?

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

I OVERHEARD

MOST OF YOUR CONVERSATION

ON THAT CELL PHONE OF YOURS,

AND I'M NOT STUPID,

SO I ASSUME YOU'RE THE LAW.

I UNDERSTAND YOUR RELUCTANCE,

BUT I'VE BEEN HERE FOR WEEKS NOW,

AND I KNOW THE DIFFERENCE

FROM THE POOR SOULS WHO ARE REAL

AND THOSE WHO ARE NOT,

AND YOU, SWEETHEART,

YOU ARE NOT!

THE WAY YOU TALK, YOU AREN'T, EITHER.

FLATTERER.

YOU DETAINED THAT ORDERLY

SO I COULD GET THOSE KEYS, DIDN'T YOU?

YES.

AND DID YOU GET THE KEYS?

HA HA HA!

YES, I DID. HA HA!

MARVELOUS!

SHH!

YOU KNOW, I'VE BEEN IN HERE SO MANY WEEKS,

AND I NEVER HAD THE RIGHT CHANCE

TO PULL IT OFF.

LIKE YOU, I CONCLUDED

IF A ROOM IS CONTINUALLY LOCKED,

THERE'S GOT TO BE SOME VERY IMPORTANT EVIDENCE.

[DOOR OPENING]

OOPS! OHH...

WHERE ARE MY GLASSES,

YOU LOONEY-TUNES OLD CRAZY?

OH, ORDERLY FISHER, SIR!

WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING THERE, SPACE GIRL?

I'M DANCING SITTING DOWN!

[C.D. LAUGHING]

WHO ARE THESE MEN?

WHERE DO THEY COME FROM?

SHUT UP, CARLTON.

I WANT TO SEE NORMA. I WANT MY BABY!

COME ON. COME ON, SPACE GIRL.

IT'S MEDICINE TIME.

I WANT MY BABY!

FREAK!

RIGHT ON THE HEAD, POP.

WHOOPS!

HERE ARE YOUR DRUGS.

FREAK.

[OWL HOOTS]

[LIGHT SNORING]

[LAUGHTER]

WHAT IN TARNATION IS GOING--

AH! YOU CAN'T DO THIS!

TAKE IT EASY, OLD MAN.

THIS AIN'T GONNA HURT MUCH.

I'M A TEXAS RANGER! I'M A TEXAS RANGER!

[LAUGHING] I'M A TEXAS RANGER!

I'M A TEXAS RANGER!

I'M A TEXAS RANGER.

I'M A TEXAS RA--

I'M A TEXAS RANGER!

UHH UHH! UHH...

[MAN STRUGGLES AND GROANS IN THE DISTANCE]

[EKG MONITOR BEEPING]

[GROANING GETS LOUDER]

[EKG BEGINS BEEPING RAPIDLY]

OH!

OHH!

[GROANING AND STRUGGLING]

[GROANING]

[EKG HIGH-PITCHED ALERT BEEPS VERY RAPIDLY]

[EKG FLATLINES]

WE ARE NOT MAKING PROGRESS HERE.

WE'RE BACK TO SQUARE ONE.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[SNORING]

C.D.: WHERE ARE YOU TAKING ME?

OVER HERE WITH THE OTHER GEEZERS.

I DON'T WANNA GO OVER THERE.

TOUGH.

I DON'T WANNA GO OVER THERE.

FINE, YOU STUPID OLD FOOL,

WHY DON'T YOU JUST SIT OUT HERE AND ROT FOR ALL I CARE!

I DON'T LIKE YOU.

I DON'T LIKE-- GO WHATEVER WAY YOU WANT!

MM-HMM. ALL RIGHT.

C.D.: CORDELL?

YEAH, IT'S ME.

Walker: HEY, C.D.

WE LOST ONE LAST NIGHT.

I'M SORRY. WHO WAS IT?

COLLINSWOOD.

YEAH, THE OFFICIAL LINE IS IT'S A STROKE,

AND IT MAY WELL BE.

BUT I THINK IT ORIGINATED IN A LAB.

LISTEN, C.D., YOU BE CAREFUL.

YEAH...RIGHT.

ADIOS.

MAISIE!

CARE FOR A PUSH AROUND THE GROUNDS, MR. CARLTON?

I'D BE DELIGHTED.

[MAISIE AND C.D. LAUGHING]

Man: OH, DON'T WORRY. I'LL TAKE CARE OF HER.

SHE'S JUST A LOON.

YOU STAY HERE AND MAKE SURE. COME ON.

YOU HEARD HER.

COME ON, MAISIE, TELL ME YOUR STORY.

HOW DID YOU GET HERE?

WELL...

MY BEST FRIEND HELEN SAWYER...

HAD ALZHEIMER'S.

PHYSICALLY, SHE WAS STRONG AS A HORSE.

WE USED TO GO DANCING EVERY WEEKEND

AT THE ASTORIA BALLROOM.

OH! HOW HELEN LOVED TO DANCE.

THEN IT GOT WHERE SHE COULDN'T LIVE ALONE,

SO HER FAMILY DECIDED TO MOVE HER IN HERE.

I HELPED THEM MAKE THE DECISION.

I THOUGHT IT WAS BEST FOR HELEN.

3 WEEKS LATER, SHE WAS DEAD.

OH, MY.

AFTER SHE DIED, I STARTED REMEMBERING

SOME OF THE ODD THINGS THAT SHE TOLD ME--

ABOUT THE DEATH CART IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT...

AND ALL THE NEW DRUGS "THAT NICE DR. DANIELS"

WAS TRYING OUT ON HER.

YOU WENT UNDERCOVER, MAISIE.

YEAH.

TO DR. MONROE AND THE STAFF,

ALL OF THE PATIENTS HERE ARE EXACTLY THE SAME...

A BUNCH OF OLD GUINEA PIGS.

NOW...

WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO USE THOSE KEYS THAT YOU STOLE?

[LAUGHING]

TONIGHT. BEFORE THEY CAN CHANGE THE LOCKS.

I'M C.D. PARKER,

CAPTAIN C.D. PARKER, RETIRED TEXAS RANGER.

THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS A RETIRED TEXAS RANGER.

EVEN I KNOW THAT.

[CHUCKLING]

COME ON, MAISIE.

WE BETTER GET OUTTA HERE.

DEPUTY D.A. CAHILL ALREADY HAS COPIES.

EVERYBODY EXHUMED HAD SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF PSL-130

AND OTHER SUBSTANCES THAT WE HAVEN'T EVEN IDENTIFIED,

THOUGH THEY APPEAR TO BE OTHER VERSIONS OF THE SAME DRUG.

LOOKS LIKE YOU HAVE PROBABLE CAUSE.

GREAT.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

[RING RING]

WALKER.

WALKER, IT'S ALEX. IS KIM THERE?

YEAH, SHE IS. SHE GAVE US THE LOWDOWN.

HOW SOON CAN YOU GET THE WARRANTS?

I WANT TO GET C.D. OUT OF THERE AS SOON AS I CAN.

ABSOLUTELY. I'M GOING TO START WAKING UP JUDGES.

OK. THANKS.

WAKE UP, MR. CARLTON.

TIME FOR YOUR SHOT.

HEY.

I SAID WAKE UP, YA OLD GOAT.

WHAT THE HELL?

PSST! PSST!

HAVE YOU FOUND ANYTHING YET?

GO TO YOUR ROOM!

I'LL WAIT FOR YOU!

GO TO YOUR ROOM NOW!

OH!

[FOOTSTEPS]

[MAISIE SCREAMS]

LET GO! HEY, OLD MAN.

WHAT YA DOIN', HUH?

HA HA. I'M LOOKING FOR ICE CREAM!

I LIKE ICE CREAM EVERY NIGHT.

I LIKE ICE CREAM.

I SCREAM, YOU SCREAM,

EVERYBODY SCREAMS!

[PAGER BEEPS]

C.D.

COME HERE!

[GRUNTING]

THE LORD AIN'T GONNA HELP YOU NOW, OLD MAN.

Dr. Monroe: SO WHAT'S YOUR STORY?

C.D.: I DON'T REMEMBER!

ARE YOU WITH THE POLICE OR A PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY?

I--I DON'T REMEMBER.

NOBODY'S GONNA HARM YOU OR MAISIE HERE.

WHAT COULD WE POSSIBLY GAIN?

MILLIONS OF DOLLARS.

YOU PIECE OF HUMAN GARBAGE!

YOU'LL DO ANYTHING! YOU'VE KILLED PEOPLE!

WELL, THEN...

FINE.

DRAW UP A LYSERGIC ACID,

METHYLPHENIDATE, AND TETRON COCKTAIL.

THAT SHOULD TAKE YOUR MIND OFF THINGS

PERMANENTLY.

LISTEN TO ME, LADY DOCTOR.

I'M A TEXAS RANGER, AND PRETTY SOON,

YOU'RE GOING TO BE HIP-DEEP IN LAWMEN OUT HERE.

THAT'S WHY HE DIDN'T TALK!

HE'S BEEN STALLING TO KEEP US HERE!

HURRY UP. KILL HIM.

HE'S STALLING NOW

JUST TO SAVE HIS SWEET OLD--

DR. MONROE! THE LAW!

YOU BETTER TELL YOUR MEN

THAT IF THEY CAN'T TAKE CARE OF THIS,

THEY'RE ALL GONNA END UP BACK IN PRISON.

GIVE HIM THE SHOT.

JANET...

GIVE HIM THE SHOT,

AND I'LL SHRED THE EXPERIMENT RECORDS.

Orderly: RIGHT THERE.

I'LL GET MONROE!

[GLASSES BREAK] OOH!

WHEW. BUNCH OF FREAKS.

[PATIENTS APPLAUDING]

OW!

YOU ALL RIGHT, C.D.? YEAH, I'M FINE.

WHERE'S DR. MONROE?

UH, MAISIE'S LOOKING FOR HER IN THE OFFICE. LET'S GO.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

JUST DANCING.

WELL, GET OUT!

I THINK NOT.

WELL, I'LL BE DOGGONED.

AREN'T YOU A SPITFIRE.

YOU'D BETTER BELIEVE IT.

ONE PUNCH. HA HA HA HA!

WHAT WILL HAPPEN NOW, MS. CAHILL?

WELL, ONE THING'S FOR CERTAIN.

MONROE AND DANIELS WILL GO TO PRISON,

AND MOST OF THE STAFF OF QUIET REST WILL GO BACK TO PRISON.

YOU KNOW, C.D., YOU DID ONE HECK OF A JOB UP THERE.
