(suspenseful music)

- The doctor said I was in a coma.

Maybe I was, but there is a world beyond consciousness

that they knew nothing about.

(suspenseful music)

But when I came back nothing was quite the same.

And I couldn't leave that other world behind.

My odyssey continues.

(Jay tossing ball)

(water dripping)

- It's been three days and Jay's still here.

- How do know?

- We both know there's no way out.

- You can't be sure I mean, kids are disappearing.

Where are they going?

- I don't know.

But Jay's still here. I've had him under surveillance.

Now I'm gonna finish him off.

- Oh, tell me more.

I love it when you talk sneaky.

- I've forged a message to Jay from his beefy buddy Flash.

It's being delivered as we speak.

- And what does the oath boy want?

- What else?

To do lunch.

Only, Jay won't make it.

He'll never get lunch in this town again.

- An ambush. When?

- Now.

Jay's time's up.

- Well, see you next week.

Maybe you'll have something you feel like talking

to me about. - Like what?

- Anything. Anything you want.

- Thank you.

(suspense music)

- Meet Jay's assassin. You remember Baz?

- Yes. The child from the circus.

What can she do?

- Anything I ask her.

Take them down.

- One at a time or all at once?

- Impress me.

(monitors groaning)

(Finger clapping hands)

- Hi, come on in.

- Hold up. Can I ask you something?

- Good. You must save it for next week then.

- But.

(soft music)

- Hi, Jay. - Hi

- She actually speaks to you.

- How did she know my name?

- Come on.

(door squeaking)

- Hi.

- I've gotta talk to you about something.

- Well, I guess this is what they call progress.

- It's about that girl.

- Okay. Please sit down.

- Now,

what girl?

- The one that had her appointment after me last week.

- Oh yes, that girl. Yes.

What about her?

- That's what I wanna know. Who is she?

- Well she's a patient of mine and I,

I can't tell you anything about her.

- Wait a minute. You said we could talk about anything.

- Yes. Anything about you.

- But this is about me. How did she know my name?

- Nikki Rikowski, get real.

We're talking serial boyfriends here.

Last week alone she went out with three boyfriends

in three days.

(students chattering)

- Jay, hi.

- Hi.

What are you doing in Kevin's locker?

- We traded, so I could be close to my honors English class.

- How do you know me?

- What's the big deal, you got something to hide?

- The answer is obvious.

It's just a matter of asking the right question.

- The only question is how do I get out of here?

My three days are up.

- It's not like playing a scratching wind game.

Big problems need time to solve.

- You're right. And I can't stop looking

just 'cause Finger's gonna come after me.

(knock on door)

- Jay, put that down.

- Password. - Swordfish.

- What's your business?

- I have a message from Flash.

(suspense music)

- Come in. (door opening)

- It's urgent.

- "Meet me at the diner. I have a way out."

How do we know what's from Flash?

- He spelt meet, M-E-A-T.

- When?

- ASAP. I've been instructed to going to escort you back.

I know a safe route but we'll have to wait till tomorrow.

- Show me.

(suspense music)

- This is the route that Jay will take

back to Flash's hang out.

- Well, what about Flash?

The loyal lad can show up when you least expect it.

But, of course you have a plan B.

- Of course my sweet.

One can never be too careful when planning an assassination.

Baz!

It's time.

- Oh, a cross bow.

(Baz fires dart)

- Silent, but deadly.

- There's no mystery. You both go to the same school.

- So do thousands of other kids, but everybody knows me.

I'm famous.

- Or maybe she just likes you.

- I'm the kid that came back from the dead, coma boy.

A medical marvel, a freak.

- Well then maybe you need to tell her who you really are.

- She acts like she already knows me.

- But may, maybe you've already met.

(suspense music)

(suspense music continues)

Jay?

Jay?

What just happened there?

- Nothing.

- You figured out where you know her from?

- I don't know. I just can't tell you.

- Well then, tell me what you can.

Tell me what you want.

- How come you don't know what I'm thinking?

Isn't that your job?

You're the head shrinker.

- Okay but I'm not a mind reader and I'm not the enemy here.

(suspense music)

- If I told you, I'd be back in the hospital.

Only this time, a loony bin and they throw away the key.

- Is that what you afraid of?

- Wouldn't you be?

- Look, how do you account for all the progress you've made?

- They said I've got major brain damage.

- You think brain damage explains the way you feeling?

(suspense music)

Oh, Jay, you gotta give yourself a break.

You met a girl. You like each other.

Is that bad?

- I don't know.

(ducks quacking)

- Why are you stopping?

- It'll be dark soon. - Dark?

It's still at least a half days travel,

we should keep going.

- It's too dangerous. We'll have to stop here.

- I had an accident.

I fell out of a tree fort and banged my head.

I was in a coma for two years.

- That's not why you're seeing a shrink.

- How do you know?

- It's either your mother or your father.

- Who told you?

- Come on admit it. He's never been there for you.

- You don't even know my father.

- Kids and parents, it's like two different worlds.

- What do you mean?

- It's no mystery.

You feel abandoned and nobody believes you.

(suspense music)

(Baz firing dart)

(suspense music continues)

- Who told you about my father?

How I feel?

- Jay, what's your problem?

- Didn't he tell you that too?

He said he wouldn't, but he told you everything.

(somber music)

(door opening)

- You told her everything, didn't you?

Everything.

- Look will you excuse us a moment please.

All right Jay, I understand okay.

- She knows about my dad. How could you tell her?

- All right. Just sit down please.

All right, okay.

Now, tell who?

- Nikki, what else did you tell, huh?

- What am I a fortune teller?

How could I tell her something I don't know?

You haven't told me anything about your father.

- She knows that I come here because my dad abandoned me.

- I see. So, that's why you come here?

- Yes.

No!

Now you must really think I'm crazy.

- No, no. I don't.

Look Jay, if I asked 20 kids if they're having troubles

with their father, 25 will say yes.

- Wait a minute. You just said 20 kids.

- They have friends and their friends have problems

with their fathers too. And their mothers.

You see what I'm saying?

- No.

- It's not exactly a secret.

Kids have problems with their parents.

- Mine are different.

- All right.

Listen, I think that this is a very good starting place

for next week's appointment. So, be on time.

And not two days early, okay.

(door closes)

- You, you, you had him in your sight.

- I can't explain it commander.

Someone must have tampered with it.

- Oh and who might that have been?

- [Baz] I wouldn't know, mam.

(Medea fires dart)

- Seems fine to me.

- Fortunately, there's still time for plan B.

Ambush Jay at the diner.

- Wasn't that supposed to be plan A?

- Well, by switching plan A with plan B,

I hope to create an air of confusion.

- Ah, (Medea laughing)

you're so clever.

But if our assassin happens to miss her mark again,

then have a third plan.

- Plan C?

- Oh no,

I couldn't keep a step ahead of you darling even if I tried.

You, come here.

Fortune cookies, I baked them myself.

- There's no fortune.

- Well, you have to read between the lines, eat it.

(Medea and Finger laughing)

- There's nothing like home cooking.

Now move.

And, as an escort, take along my three-

(Medea clears throat) - Two.

- My two bravest monitors.

- Yes sir. This time the boy is mine.

- [Coach] Go, go, go, go, go.

- Jay.

- I guess I sort of freaked out yesterday.

- Was it something I said?

- It was just that you knew so much about me.

- It's 'cause I like you. I'm sorry if I upset you.

- I know.

Sy said you probably just recognize

something we had in common.

- Like what?

- Sy says, if you ask 20 kids,

if their having problems with their father

- 25 will yes and don't even get him started on mothers.

Did he say anything else?

- He told me that if I ever barged in on him again,

I get to see a whole other side of his personality.

- You did that?

- Yeah.

I really wanted to call you last night and apologize,

but I didn't have your number.

- Now you do. - Thanks.

- Jay, I think people who like each other

just automatically know stuff about each other.

More than just parent trouble.

- I know something. - What?

- We're gonna be late for homeroom.

(bell ringing) - You're right.

- [Both] Meet me here after school.

- Yeah.

(suspense music)

(upbeat music)

- Uh, we're not open yet.

- Look me in the eye and see if I care. Where's Flash?

- Flash comes and goes,

but I'm not expecting to see him at all today.

What's it to you?

- Say hello to your new waitress.

- I don't need any new waitress.

- Look me in the eye and see if I care.

- They're in position.

- So, this is it?

- Mh-hmm.

Not having second thoughts are you?

- No.

Of course not.

- Dearest, you're chocking me.

- Oh. (Finger clears throat)

Sorry, darling.

(suspense music)

- This time he won't get away.

(dramatic music)

(food sizzling)

- Now what?

- Now add the red powder on top of the counter.

- How much of it?

- The whole thing. - All of it?

- You can never have too much of a good thing.

(dramatic music continues)

- Jay, what are you doing over there?

(upbeat music)

- Baz, what are you doing here?

- After the (indistinct) trashed the circus

I was out of a job. Everyone's gotta eat.

What do you have?

- Where's Lila?

- I'm covering for her today. Can I show you to your table?

- Sure.

Where's Flash?

- He said he'd be late and to start eating without him.

- Flash said to start eating without him?

- Those were his words. - It's okay. I'll wait.

- While you're waiting,

try the complimentary fortune cookies. They're delicious.

They'll change your life. - Thanks.

- I'll be right back to take your order

as soon as I feed those two lunks from the tower.

(suspense music)

- Come here, sit with me.

(food sizzling)

- [Baz] Enjoy. - We didn't order that.

- It's the gunk du jour, eat it.

What's the matter?

Don't you wanna know your fortune?

- It's hard to decide which one.

Any one of them will do the trick.

(monitors screaming)

- Aren't you gonna eat it?

- Everyone knows you're supposed to read

the fortunate first.

"Run!"

- Oh no, you don't. Not this time.

- [Jay] Baz, what are you doing?

- Finishing the job.

Get him now!

Monitor. He's getting away.

Wait till Finger finds out what useless fools you are.

- Lila.

- I'm okay.

Now go.

- Monitor, get me down from here!

- Jay, come here. What is it?

- Stay there don't come any closer.

- What's the matter, what happened?

- You can't fool me. I know what's going on.

- Did I do something?

- You won't stop until you get what you want.

- I did it again.

I always come on too strong to the guys that I like,

but what am I supposed to do?

Sit by the phone til you're ready to call?

- I'm sorry I can't be what you want.

- All I want is someone to share stuff with.

And if you ask me, that's all you want to.

Here's a quarter.

You got my number. Call me when you grow up!

(somber music)

- So, she dumped you, huh?

It's far for four.

- Only it wasn't that way.

- Right, like you dumped her.

- Not exactly, sorta.

I was so scared she'd hurt me, I never knew I'd hurt her.

- Life's cruel. Welcome back to the real world.

- It's gonna take a while to get used to.
