Original subtitles

- Where am I?

What's going on?

- There, there, rest yourself.

You've been sick with a very high fever.

You're going to be fine, Nicolette, just fine.

You were just having a bad dream.

Sister Aja, you must read this.

It explains everything.

I haven't got much time.

Promise me you'll take care of my baby.

- Yes, I, I promise, we'll take care of him.

Listen to me,

there's evil within that mirror.

You must read her diary!

- I've read it, it's pure lunacy.

The ramblings of a woman gone mad.

Nicolette Chandler, there is no evil in the house of God!

You've been obsessed with that mirror since you got here.

Look at it, it is just a piece of furniture!

- You've got to believe me!

Read it!

- It draws its strength

by granting the innocent wishes of youth.

Go further!

The evil lives within the mirror.

It can take many shapes, man, boy, or beast,

but the simple shall know its true face.

Oh, this book is vile, it's blasphemy.

I won't read any more.

- No, Sister, make a vow.

Keep the mirror covered until it can be destroyed.

The evil must not escape.

- Oh, this is absurd!

We're in a house of worship!

No, stop!

It will escape!

Look, it is just a mirror.

There's no power here, just wood and glass.

Good and evil do not do battle in mirrors!

- My God, what have you done?

What was that?

- The knife, get the knife!

- What knife, what do you mean?

- In the dresser, wrapped in a cloth!

- This?

- Yes, yes, use it!

It's the only way to destroy the evil!

The innocent shall know.

Only the innocent!

Somebody help me-ee-ee!

I can't see!

God, please, I can't see!

- Wow, are those real?

God, they musta hurt.

So are you guys on tour?

- Yeah, we're just finishing up.

- Oh.

- Our manager thought a charity gig

would be good for PR, but it seems pretty dead around here.

This is some kind of church orphanage

or something, isn't it?

Where is everybody?

Well, the nuns took all the kids

to the camp except me and my brother.

- So how come you lucked out?

- Well, we just got here last night.

We had to wait for some unfinished paperwork or something.

Check it out!

- Hey, what's with those guys?

- Eh, they're all right.

Hey, it's been a long tour, what do you want?

- Piwacket!

Hey, this is great!

- That ugly thing?

- It's not ugly, I like it!

It'd be great to practice my dancing.

I'm pretty good, you know?

- Dancer, huh?

Topless?

No, classical.

It's Marlee, right?

- Right.

- So Marlee, what's the deal with your brother?

- Oh, it's been hard on Jeffrey and me.

He just doesn't understand.

It's like he stares into space

like he's waiting for something.

- Bizarre!

- Let me see that violin.

I said, let me see that violin!

Kid's a retard,

just take the damn thing from him!

- Leave him alone!

- What's with you?

I'm just havin' a little fun with the retard is all.

Yeah, we're just playin' with him!

- Play with yourself, asshole!

- Ooh, big talker,

maybe you got somethin' we could play with.

- Ow, in your dreams!

You okay, Jeffrey, you all right?

- Eh, forget her and the retard.

We need to rehearse.

- What a bunch of idiots!

I wish someone would teach them a lesson.

Okay, guys, I don't wanna be here

the rest of my life.

Let's burn!

One, two, three, four!

- Hello, my name is Jeffrey.

Who are you?

I like to play my violin.

How long have you been here?

Can you come out and play?

I know, they were bad.

Her name is Marlee.

- Where's Jeffrey?

Where's Jeffrey, is he okay?

Jeffrey's fine.

He wasn't even touched,

but you were, oh, it's a miracle you're alive.

I, I can't see you!

Why can't I see you?

Talk to me, tell me what happened!

Is everybody okay?

- I'm sorry, child, but they,

they're gone.

A freak accident.

I'm sorry, I'm so very sorry.

- There, there, child, do you feel better now?

- Sister Marion, is that you?

Mm-hmm.

- Gosh, everything seems so blurry.

- Yes, it's me, dear.

Doctor says your vision should clear up in a few days.

Other than that, is anything else wrong?

No, I'm guess I'm all right.

Good.

- Sister, um,

does God hate me?

Am I cursed?

Oh, don't be ridiculous, Marlee!

God loves you.

Except for His grace,

you and your brother both could have been killed!

- Well, then why is this happening?

I just don't understand it.

Well.

My cat, where's Piwacket?

- She's fine!

I just saw her flitting around in the hallway.

I'll bring her into you later.

- Thanks.

I keep thinking I dreamt it all.

- No, it was all very real.

Such a tragedy.

What were you thinking of?

You weren't supposed to be at that rehearsal!

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

It's just been very hard on all of us.

We'll talk later,

and your brother, bless his soul, is just fine.

He's been very concerned about you.

Oh, by the way, I've called for your sister!

She's gonna be here any minute now.

- She's not my sister, she's my step-sister.

- Oh, yes, yes, yes, step-sister.

Well, anyway, she is on her way with a specialist.

And, uh, I've made arrangements for them to stay here

until you're back on your feet, hmm?

- Oh, I wish you wouldn't have done that.

She doesn't care about me!

She's a money-grubbing witch!

Now who's being a witch?

Oh, Marlee, are you all right?

I've been worried sick!

- Oh, stop it, Roslyn.

Why are you really here?

- I'm here because of you.

It's so horrible what's happened that,

first Daddy, and, and now this, I don't know how you cope.

- Well, thanks for the support.

Now, will you please leave?

- That's not very nice, Marlee.

I only wanna take care of you.

- Yeah, right, me and my inheritance.

Marlee, this is Dr. Lasky.

He's very well respected in his field,

and I've asked him to take charge here,

if that's all right with you, Sister.

How do you do?

- We appreciate your concern,

but we do have a very fine doctor, Dr. Lewis,

who's been with us for many years.

He's already examined Marlee.

- Well, I'm, I'm sure that's fine and good,

but Dr. Lasky's a specialist,

and I just can't hear of my sister having anything less.

Perhaps we could leave and give them some privacy.

I want very much to see poor Jeffrey.

Certainly.

- I love you, Marlee.

- All right now, come on, sit up.

C'mon!

You just relax, you're in good hands.

- How can you put up with that witch?

Well, now, that's not a very nice thing to say.

Your sister just wants to take care of you,

look after your well-being, yes.

How are you feeling?

- Oh, great, I'm lying in bed, I'm practically blind,

and my conniving sister shows up with you.

How do you think I feel?

- Well, it certainly doesn't seem

to have affected your mouth.

Oh, look, I do know this must be very upsetting for you,

but you need some rest,

so I am going to give you something

to make you sleep, all right?

Now, don't you worry.

Everything is going to be fine.

Here, now you just relax.

Ah, yes, now lie back.

Here, everything will be fine.

Don't worry, just relax.

We'll take care of everything!

A cat!

- Her condition seems to be deteriorating.

- Poor soul.

- You know, she's been this way for years,

but at least she continues to eat.

- Small miracles.

Well, sometimes that's all we can ask for.

Aja.

Sister Aja?

Can you hear me?

It's been a long time.

I had to come back.

- Christian?

- Some doctor, making me wait for him here

when he knows the sun is horrendous for my complexion.

You still look fabulous, though.

Line here or there, what does it matter?

You keep getting better.

Who am I trying to kid?

Looking old and decrepit.

- Nonsense, you look beautiful,

and besides, when you are immersed in riches, who will care.

- What do you mean, who will care?

You'll be off for some 18-year-old gymnast

leaving me to rot.

Oh, you're just upset, so relax!

Everything is going according to plan.

- How soon do the drugs start taking effect?

- Roslyn, I am the doctor.

- I just can't believe I was left out of the will.

What was Daddy thinking of?

- Well, perhaps he was thinking of

all those wonderful things you never did for him.

After all, you were a little bit

of a spoiled brat, now, weren't you?

- You shut up, it doesn't matter what I was.

I was his daughter, I was the first!

It's not fair,

and then he married that slut, Marlee's mother,

two years younger than me!

- Come on, now, settle down, Roslyn.

- She was no good, no breeding, a bad blood line.

You.

- That idiot son they produced.

- You're beginning to whine.

- And I'm left with nothing.

- But, Roslyn, you are soon

going to be in control of everything.

Now, you must trust me, the drugs will work.

- They're not going to hurt her, are they?

- No.

- Right, you promised you won't hurt her.

- Yes, now stop worrying.

You know, y-you're going to make yourself ill.

I know, it's just--

- Now, come on!

Now, come on, I'm going to take you to meet someone

who will ensure our future, come along!

Roger, my boy!

- Oh!

What do you want?

I thought we already had a deal.

- Well, I want you to meet Roslyn.

Hello.

Uh, Roslyn, this gentleman is going to help us.

- As long as you got cash.

Well, you have some interesting pieces.

Did you make them yourself?

What does he have to do with us?

- Ah, well, you see, I have persuaded Roger

to assist us in our quest to have Marlee relinquish

that which is rightfully yours, eh, haven't I, Roger?

Leave me alone.

- See, uh, Roger has a, uh, most particular imagination.

It's sort of a variation of themes.

- What does that mean?

- Shall I tell her or will you?

- Please.

- See, I do think the good Sisters

might be a smidge put out to discover

that their trusty handyman had a penchant for, uh--

- You son of a--

Oh, no, no, don't be put out.

Don't be upset!

You know, I understand perfectly.

I mean, we all have our, uh, little secrets.

Don't we, dear?

- Whatever you say, darling.

- Have you got everything you need?

I told you, I'll take care of it.

- Just don't get caught.

- No one's gonna catch me.

I know this place better'n anyone.

There's ways in and out of these rooms

that no one else knows about.

- Good.

- Just don't double-cross me.

- Lasky?

- You see, my dear.

Everything's under control, just like I promised.

- Yes, just as long as she doesn't get hurt.

That's right, isn't it, Lasky?

- Well, yes, of course that's right!

Eh, trust me!

Don't worry, I mean, after all, we don't want any more

of those horrid little worry lines, now, do we?

- Oh, please don't stop, it was so beautiful.

Who are you?

- My name is Sister Aja, but who are you?

I've never heard your voice before.

I thought all the children were gone.

- I'm Jeffrey.

What happened to your eyes?

- I know you, you're the brother of that young girl.

- Marlee.

- So tell me, Jeffrey,

why are you playing your violin in this empty room?

You should play for someone to hear.

- He likes it.

He?

Is there someone else in the room?

There's no one else here.

I think you should go back to your room now.

It's late and probably past your bed time.

But I want to play!

- Be a good boy and do as I say.

All right, good night.

- Good night, child!

Maybe tomorrow, you'll come play for me.

That would be nice.

Aja!

- Who's there?

What is this?

Oh, no, no!

No, I can't, not this again, no!

No!

- So they need me for their little plan, huh, me!

Pompous asshole doctor!

What a jerk!

And that woman of his.

She'd steal dead bugs from a blind spider.

Who do they think they are?

Someone should take him.

I'm sorry.

I am really, really s-sorry.

Oh, here, Daddy'll fix it.

Daddy'll fix everything.

There, see, Daddy'll fix everything.

See, there, there you go.

Scare the little girl, huh?

I'll scare her, all right, right out of her pants!

Yeah, I'll scare her.

You'd like that, wouldn't you?

Yeah, you'd like that.

You'd like it!

- Damn, mm, my eyes!

When is thing gonna clear up?

Hey, wait a minute!

I can see this old mirror perfectly!

Well, how come I can only see this mirror?

Huh, this is so weird!

You're the only thing that I can see.

Well, I guess I'll just have to dance for you.

What was that?

- Marlee, Marlee!

Doctor!

Doctor Lasky, please!

- My dear, I thought I told you to stay in bed!

We wouldn't want you to hurt yourself.

Look, there was something in the studio.

- Something, what do you mean, something?

- I don't know, maybe it wasn't real.

Oh, this must sound crazy.

- It sounds like you're hallucinating.

Eh, these are latent manifestations of anxiety.

It all stems from the accident.

- I was there, I saw something!

- Yes, yes, look, my dear, tell me now.

Is your eyesight any better?

- No.

- Hmm, mm.

Look, well I'm going to give you something

to make you sleep.

She needs her rest.

- No more shots, I feel fine!

I'm not sick, now what are you giving me?

- It's just a mild sedative!

- Marlee, I'm sure the doctor knows what's best.

You do seem a little agitated.

- I don't need rest.

I need to see and I need to dance.

- Yes, of course you do.

And the mirror.

- Everything is going to be just fine.

You're going to feel so much better

in just a little while.

Oh, Sister.

Sister, I, uh, I need your help.

Look, I am depending upon you

to make sure that she stays in bed.

- Yes.

I'd hate to have to hold you responsible

if anything should happen to her.

- Is there something you haven't told me?

- Well, unfortunately, I'm afraid she might have been hurt

a good deal more than we originally thought.

She is suffering from acute anxiety.

You can see by the way she's acting.

- Yes, of course, it's obvious.

I'll do everything I can.

- Oh, Sister.

Sister, you are indeed a good woman.

Poor Marlee.

Look, sometimes it takes years

to recover from a shock like this.

We'll pray for her.

- Father, take away the evil.

Please, watch over the children, they are so young.

Thou who are in Heaven, please tell me why!

Why now, have I failed you in some way?

Have I not given of myself?

Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done.

I beg of you, this must stop!

- Piwacket?

Piwacket, are you in here?

Have you seen Piwacket?

Maybe I am losing it.

Piwacket?

Piwacket, are you in here?

You again.

Why are you so clear?

Mm, I don't feel so good.

Piwacket, where are you?

Well, I better go.

What am I doing, I'm talking to a mirror.

Piwacket?

Piwacket, what are you doing up there?

Can't you get down?

Ooh, damn, that's all I need is a broken leg.

Piwacket, I am gonna strangle you!

Now get down here!

How long has she been out now?

- It's been a couple of hours.

Shouldn't we take her to a hospital?

- She's in good hands, Sister, she'll be fine.

You see, she's coming around already.

Well, welcome back to the land of the living!

My legs!

- Just be calm.

You have a sprain at your right ankle.

You may have torn a muscle.

Uh, this time, you have to listen to me.

You must stay off your feet for a week and no dancing.

Eh, if you do, you may never dance again.

- I can't stop dancing!

- Now, Marlee, you better listen to what the doctor says.

If you'd have followed his orders in the first place,

none of this ever would have happened.

You're just lucky you didn't break your neck!

God was watching out for you.

- God, God doesn't care about me or Jeffrey.

If he did, we wouldn't even be here!

- You're just upset.

God loves you!

- Yeah, well, if that's love, I'll find it someplace else.

- Marlee, how can you say such a thing?

You're talking crazy!

How are your eyes, can you see yet?

- Not totally,

but you know that mirror in the dance studio,

I could see that clearly.

Could you bring it in here?

- What, that big, old, ugly thing?

- I can't explain it, there's something about it.

It makes me feel good, kind of reassuring, like a friend.

- If it'll make you feel better,

I'll see what I can do.

Maybe I can get Dr. Lasky to help me.

- There you are.

I thought we agreed no one was to be hurt.

- What the hell are you talkin' about?

I'm not stupid!

What's the matter with you, are you an imbecile?

Hurting her that way, you could've killed her!

- Look, honey, I haven't done anything yet.

I wasn't even near her, so buzz off.

- Let me make one thing perfectly clear.

You're being paid a huge amount of money,

so you do exactly as you're told.

I want control, I don't want her hurt.

- You're the boss, lady.

- Yeah, so let me make one thing else clear.

Dr. Lasky hired you, not me.

- Fuck it!

- Tell ya, this thing is heavy!

- This oughta be right, right here's okay.

There!

Ah, ah, Jesus!

- Doctor, please!

- Sister, I'm sorry, but this is a $900 suit, I.

- Oh my goodness!

- How the--

- Are you okay?

- No, I'm not.

I need my bag, where's my bag?

Oh, God, oh!

- My word!

Mirrors, hmm.

Vanity is its own evil.

- Nicolette, poor Nicolette.

The pain, it.

Lord, give me strength!

I will find you!

As God as my witness, you will not do this again!

Oh, God!

You will not win!

We will defeat you!

This can't be happening.

I have to dance, please, let me dance!

H-how did you get in here?

Who are you?

- I'm Christian.

I mean, that's my name, Christian.

- Well, what are you doing here?

- Um, I heard you crying.

- Oh, I'm sorry.

So do you always walk into girl's bedrooms at night?

- Uh, no, not usually, but tonight,

I'm huntin' down old ghosts and demons.

- Here, at a church?

- Yeah, this place and I,

we got a long, long history together.

Besides, um, I got some unfinished business here.

- Oh, sounds serious.

Well, I'm fresh out of demons,

but there's this crow I'd like to introduce you to.

I'm Marlee Colton.

- Hello, Marlee, no, no, don't get up.

- Oh, that's real funny.

- Eh, I'm sorry.

It's just, uh, you seem so familiar to me.

So what happened to you?

- So what didn't happen to me?

- Aw, come on, it can't be that bad, can it?

- The last few days have been horrible.

My parents were just killed in a car crash,

and I can't see clearly.

Just today, I fell off of a ladder, and I hurt my legs,

and I'm a dancer.

My whole life is dancing.

The doctor says I may never dance again.

- Ah, doctors.

All those guys know about is drugs.

You just gotta believe.

There's more to Heaven and Earth

than any man will ever know.

- What?

- Now, you can have anything you want.

You just gotta believe.

Right, did you see that in a movie?

Christian, Christian?

- Who were you talking to, dear?

- There was a boy here, he said his name was Christian.

I turned away for a second, and he was gone!

You must've seen him.

There was no one here.

- I'm telling you, there was someone here.

Marlee, no one was here!

Now, you're beginning to worry me!

Well, doctor said it would be a while before you recover.

Are you feeling all right?

- Yes, I'm fine, but I'm telling you,

there was someone here.

Christian?

- Yes.

- Ah-ha, here, up, up, up, up!

You know, we had a boy here

named Christian a few years back.

Sad story, his mother, uh, Nicolette Chandler.

Aja used to call her Nicky,

she was very troubled when she first came here,

and then she died when he was no more than a baby.

We raised him for a while, mm-hmm,

and he was very talented, but a real troublemaker.

- What happened to him?

- Oh, he had to follow his dreams.

One day, he just up and disappeared.

He was like that, though, popping up here and there.

You never knew where you'd find him.

Of course, these old buildings,

they have all sorts of doorways and passageways.

I'm sure he knew every one of them.

Well, oh, my word, I almost forgot!

Uh, even though it is rather late,

I thought it'd be all right if you had a real visitor.

I'll leave you two alone.

Jeffrey!

Don't worry about me, I'm okay.

So how's your violin playing, Jeffrey?

- I'm back.

That's wonderful, Jeffrey.

So are you playing your violin?

- How come you're in there?

- Oh, I have to stay here, I hurt my legs.

- How does it feel?

- Ah, it doesn't feel good.

- Can you come out?

- No, not for a while.

Why?

Well, I have to stay here until my legs heal.

No, Marlee's my sister!

- Jeffrey, you know I am.

- I don't like that.

- Well, thanks a lot, I guess I'll have

to find myself a new brother.

- No, you better not, I won't let you!

- Jeffrey, I'm joking!

You're the best brother anyone could ever have.

- That's a lie, I know why you're here.

You should go!

I don't like you anymore!

- Jeffrey, what's wrong?

Something wrong here, we have to leave.

- Jeffrey, everything's gonna be all right, don't worry!

- No, it's not all right,

I don't want anything to happen to you.

I love you.

- Oh, I love you, too.

I miss Mommy and Daddy.

- I miss them, too.

I wish there was someone to watch over us, but there isn't.

It's just you and me, kid.

My legs, they don't hurt!

Oh, this is unreal!

There's no pain!

Thank you, thank you!

Hmm, I guess Christian was right, whoever he is.

You just have to believe.

Marlee!

Marlee, what are you doing out of bed?

Are you crazy?

- It's okay, my legs are fine, look, there's no pain!

- Oh, don't give me that, now get back into bed.

You know you're not supposed to be on your feet.

- Look, I said they're fine.

Why don't you just get out of here and leave me alone?

- Don't talk to me like that, Marlee.

I'm your sister.

I'm just looking out for you.

- Oh, that's a joke!

I don't really need your help or your sympathy.

- What is this?

- I'm trying to tell her that my legs are fine.

They must have healed overnight.

- Look, that is nonsense, now get back in bed!

- Why won't you listen to me?

- Because you do not understand

that the injuries you sustained could take weeks

or months to repair themselves.

Obviously, she has, uh,

aggravated the situation by standing too soon.

- Well, I think she's losing her mind.

- I am not losing my mind!

I just can't explain it, but see for yourself.

They're fine!

Neither of you know what you're talking about.

You're both a couple of jokes.

- No more talk, no more nonsense!

Now this will help you to follow orders and stay in bed!

- Please, leave me alone.

Roslyn, why do you let him do this?

- You are a very ungrateful little girl!

We're just trying to help you!

- Mm, I don't feel so good.

Piwacket?

Oh, Piwacket.

Hmm, I wish I could see you more clearly.

Oh, come here, where were you, huh?

I could've used you a few seconds ago.

These people are driving me crazy.

I can see.

Wait a minute, I can see!

The blurriness is gone, everything's clear!

This is unbelievable, Piwacket, can you believe it?

I can, how about you?

- Christian!

Hi, whoa!

Hold on!

Are you okay?

- Oh, I don't know, I don't think so.

They just gave me a shot of something.

How are your legs?

Can you walk?

- Oh, yeah, they're fine.

It's just my head that's been spinning, hmm.

- You know, you need some fresh air.

Let's get out of this room and this building.

- Yeah, maybe you're right.

Anything would be better than this place, huh.

- Why don't we go to my loft and, uh,

I can play you some of the things I've written?

I think you could use a change of scenery.

- Things you've written?

- Yeah, I'm a musician, a composer.

- Oh, I don't have a good track record with musicians.

Nah, come on!

You'll like it.

- I think we're gonna get wet.

- I'll take care of ya.

- You will, huh?

You know, I've been hearing stories about you lately.

- Huh, can you believe everything you hear?

- I don't know what to believe anymore.

- Believe in me.

Wow, this place is amazing!

Do you perform around here?

- Nah, uh, spend a lot of time in Europe playing in clubs,

but I got restless, so, um,

I had to come back.

Maybe I had to come back for you.

- So is this where you live now?

- Uh, when I'm here, this is where I live.

- Oh, you're so mysterious!

- Can I get you anything?

- No, I feel wonderful.

If feeling this good is a crime, I'm guilty as sin.

- Ah, you guilty?

Never.

I have something I want you to hear.

This is beautiful!

It seems so familiar, did you write it?

- Yeah.

- Well, you should meet my brother, Jeffrey.

He's a musician.

He can play.

This is really nice.

- Thank you.

Eh, it was something new.

This melody keeps haunting me.

- You're so strange, I mean, who are you really?

- Well, I'm whoever you want me to be.

Ask me anything, I can grant your every wish.

- Oh, you can, can you?

I bet you know how to read people's minds, too, huh?

- Maybe.

- Well, tell me what I'm thinking.

- I think you're gonna like this.

- Marlee?

Marlee, what's wrong?

- In my room on my bed, there are spiders.

Spiders?

An itsy, bitsy spider, that's nothing to be afraid of!

- Well, no, not one, hundreds, I don't know!

Hundreds, well, let's hope you're hallucinating.

- No, it's real, why don't you look for yourself!

- What is going on here?

- What are you doing out of bed, young lady?

You must stay off your feet!

- You're so right, Sister,

but I'm afraid Marlee's had a frightful nightmare.

- Look, I'm telling you what I saw!

I wasn't dreaming, someone put spiders in my bed!

- Someone?

Did you see anyone?

No.

- Marlee, do you think someone is following you?

- Well, no, I mean, yes, I mean, I don't know!

Someone had to put them there!

- Oh, poor dear, she doesn't know what she's saying.

- Paranoid delusions, i-it's, uh,

quite usual in cases like this.

Oh, Marlee, I'm afraid you're unable to cope.

- No, but that's why I'm here.

I can handle everything for her.

- Look, I'm telling you what I saw!

- Are your eyes all better?

Is the blurriness gone?

- Well, yes, they're fine.

What am I trying to convince you for?

Why don't you look yourself?

You'll see!

- Wait, wait, listen to me, listen!

Now take a deep breath, you've had a terrible nightmare.

I said take a deep breath!

There, now don't you feel better?

Now, let's take a look at your room.

There, you see?

Nothing, nothing, it was just a bad dream!

- I just don't understand this!

I wasn't seeing things, they were on the bed!

- I think what you need is a good night's sleep, Marlee.

Don't you agree, Dr. Lasky?

- Oh, absolutely, all this unnecessary excitement,

it isn't doing any of us any good.

Marlee, unless you take it easy,

you are never going to get better.

We don't want that, now, do we?

- Come on, Marlee, come on!

The doctor's right, you have to get your rest,

so, thank you, starting to lose control over yourself,

and we can't let that happen!

- Well, why doesn't anyone believe me,

and why do I need another shot?

Because, darling,

you're not being yourself these days.

- I don't want any more, what the hell are you giving me?

It's for your own good!

Marlee, you're hyperventilating!

Hold still!

- Roslyn, make 'em stop!

Just settle down!

We're not trying to hurt you!

My word!

Enough to wake the devil!

- Please help me!

- Uh, Sister, may I see you in your office briefly?

There's something I'd like to discuss with you.

- Certainly.

- Thank you, I'll be there in a few minutes.

Did you see her face?

It was practically over, Sister Marion's sold,

and Roger, ho-ho, Roger really outdid himself.

You know, I wonder where he found all those spiders?

Remind me to give him a little reward,

something lacy perhaps.

- Oh, stop it!

This isn't turning out the way I thought.

We could actually be destroying her mind!

- What are you talking about?

You know, how else are you gonna get control of the money?

- I looked in her eyes, she was really scared!

- Well, of course she's scared!

You know, sometimes I don't know where your mind is.

Oh, oh, don't fall apart on me now.

- Oh, Lasky, I'm so scared!

- We are in this together.

We started together, and we are going to finish together.

I am going to see Sister Marion,

and arrange for Marlee to be put under psychiatric care,

and then you will be named the legal guardian,

so why don't you go to your room

and do something with your face.

- Marlee?

Marlee?

- Jeffrey!

- Marlee, I have to talk to you.

- You should be asleep, Jeffrey.

- I couldn't sleep.

They won't let me see you.

- I can always see you, no matter what!

Now tell me, what's wrong?

- You in danger!

- What do you mean?

Who told you this?

- The old woman with no eyes.

- The old woman with no eyes, I don't understand.

- Down there, she has no eyes.

- You mean Sister Aja?

She's blind.

- I know.

Exactly what did she tell you?

- The mirror is bad.

Don't talk to it, don't ask it for anything.

It's bad!

She gave me this.

- Jeffrey, what are you doing with this knife?

For the bad mirror!

- Well, give me this!

- Marlee, it's bad, I'm scared!

- Don't be scared, this mirror is special!

It makes me feel strong.

- I looked in the mirror.

It lied, it's bad, you in danger!

- Don't be scared, it won't hurt you!

It's all right!

No one can hurt us, Jeffrey, no one!

No one can hurt us.

Roger!

Roger?

- Who's there?

- See nothing's changed around here, Roger!

- Come on out where I can see ya!

- You're up to your old tricks again, huh?

You're pathetic!

- Go to hell.

Get outta here!

- And stupid, too!

In case something goes wrong, and it will,

you're the patsy, man.

I know what's goin' on.

Where are you now?

End this now!

- Where is he?

He's just like all the rest of them!

Never around when you need them.

I'm getting awfully tired of him

telling me to wait here for him, and wait there for him.

I'm a person, and it's just ridiculous.

Oh, joy!

Oh, wonderful!

This is wonderful,

another beautiful day at the nunnery.

- You won't get away with it.

I mean, injecting your own flesh and blood

with drugs to get money!

That's attempted murder!

And then getting Roger involved in your plan.

That was a big mistake!

- I don't have any idea what you're talking about,

and if you don't get out of here at once,

I'm gonna call Sister Marion.

Go ahead

but the wheels are already in motion,

and you stop this before it's too late.

- I'm going to get her right now.

- 'Cause you're runnin' out of time!

- Sister Marion, Sister Marion!

- I was watching you dance, didn't want to disturb you.

Don't worry, I know what's going on.

I won't let them hurt you, believe me, Christian.

Christian!

- Were you calling for me?

- Not in this lifetime.

- There's no one here but the two of us.

Here, let me help you dry off.

- Just get away from me.

- Why do you defy me?

It, it doesn't have to be this way.

We could be friends,

close friends.

Hallucinations,

fits of paranoia, your mind is a very delicate

balance these days, Marlee, it,

it could snap just like that.

Look, perhaps it would be better

if you did go someplace else,

where they could watch over you 24 hours a day,

an institution perhaps.

- You wouldn't dare!

No one would believe you, I'm fine!

- It'd just be for a little while.

- Oh, yeah, well, you'll never get away with it.

- You know, you really should let me help you change.

You, you could catch--

- Get out of here before I start screaming.

I'll say you tried to rape me.

- Another delusion.

- I said get out of here!

- You could have made this a great deal easier for yourself,

but you just will not learn!

I suppose it's time for another shot.

After this, you won't care who I am.

Stop it, stop!

Come on, bitch!

No!

- Stop it!

Get off of me!

Please, get away from me!

No, no!

- Marlee, look, look, I'm gonna break your arm!

- Stop that, please!

- Marlee, I'm scared!

Jeffrey, it's gonna be all right, okay?

It's gonna be all right!

- Marlee!

The blind lady, she knows, she can help!

Talk to her!

Marlee, you have to talk to her!

- Sister Aja?

- Go there, now!

- All right, all right, I'll go,

but listen, you go to your room,

and I'll come get you after I talk with her, okay?

Jeffrey, okay?

He's here, you should go!

- All right, all right, I'll see you in your room.

Sister Aja?

Leave me alone.

It's Marlee Colton.

- Marlee?

- Yes, I've come to talk to you about the mirror.

- Yes, there is evil in the mirror.

Did the boy tell you?

- The boy?

- The innocent one, did he tell you?

- Well, yes, he said to come here to talk to you!

- You are in great danger.

We all are, there is an evil housed inside the mirror,

and it has grown strong.

It can change shape, has it shown itself?

- I don't know.

- It can be anything your heart desires, anything,

even a man or young, like you.

- Like me, my age?

- Yes, he will trick you, deceive you.

Tell you things you want to hear,

make you believe in him.

- Christian.

- But he's a liar, he is the demon,

and he wants you, and your wishes have made him strong!

- Well, what can I do?

- The evil must be destroyed.

The boy, the innocent one.

He is the one who can destroy it!

Now go!

Go before it's too late, go!

I was like you!

You go before it is too late, go!

- What are you doing here?

- I had to see Sister Aja.

- You had to do no such thing!

- Sister, something evil is happening around here!

- Evil, you've been given every chance,

but you refuse to obey the rules.

Now, I cannot allow that any longer!

- You have to listen to me!

- The only thing I have to do, young lady,

is to find a place that can handle you!

You're not only hurting yourself,

but you've caused a major setback to Sister Aja!

Thank God I passed by on the way to the chapel!

- Look, you don't know what's going on, there's a demon!

- Sister Aja has been completely withdrawn

since the Chandler woman disappeared.

Now, we've managed to keep her comfortable

until you showed up, you and again, that mirror!

- Look, will you shut up and listen to me?

There's something in that mirror!

- I am not going to hear anything more about that mirror!

It drove the Chandler woman mad,

and then Aja, and now you!

Now, this time, I, I am ending it once and for all.

Now, g-go get your brother, and start packing.

Your sister and Dr. Lasky have plans for you.

- What, but they're just after the money!

Look, I don't even care about that,

we have to do something about that mirror!

- Oh, dear God, you really do need help, Marlee!

Now, now get going, or I'll pack you myself,

and then I'm gonna get rid of that mirror!

- Jeffrey?

- Where the hell is Lasky?

We've gotta get out of here before everything falls apart!

This wasn't my idea!

He shouldn't have left me out of the will!

I was his best little girl

until he married that slut's mother, and I was young!

Lasky, I'm old and nobody cares!

I'm old, look at those wrinkles!

I hate this, I hate this!

I'm not young anymore, I'm old, oh, God!

Oh my God,!

- Yes, the children are ready and the paperwork is done.

I have the doctor's signature.

Look, you're not getting the point.

They want the children moved today.

What in the world, ye-ya-yes, yes, I'm here.

Um, I told you everything is in order!

What, yeah, what, yes, uh, good, good.

I-I'll have them waiting by the front door.

Yes, yes, thank you.

Thank you, fine, goodbye.

What's going on out there?

Let me out, let me out!

Please, somebody help me!

- Whoever's responsible for this commotion

had better show themselves right now!

If this is a joke, it's gone too far!

Marlee, is that you playing games?

Oh, Marlee!

Oh, no, not again!

Marlee, Marlee!

Marlee!

Marlee!

Marlee!

- Come out this instant!

I'm warning you!

Please, be gone!

- This is enough, come out this instant!

This is a house of God, you will not defile it!

- No!

Somebody please, help me!

- I want you to go!

You don't belong here!

You're bad!

Get out!

- Jeffrey!

What are you doing?

- Let go, no, he's bad!

Take it easy, Jeffrey!

- I have to stop him before he hurts Marlee!

- No one's gonna hurt Marlee!

Jeffrey!

Jeffrey!

It's come.

The demon, he is not what he says he is!

Jeffrey!

Jeffrey!

- Unlock the door, I'm not gonna hurt you!

Now, let me in!

- I'm warning you!

- Jeffrey!

Jeffrey!

Jeffrey!

No!

Jeffrey!

Jeffrey!

Jeffrey, Jeffrey!

What have you done?

What have you done with Jeffrey?

- Marlee, what is going on here?

Where is he?

- Well, I don't know, I don't know!

- How could you do this?

What kind of a monster are you?

- Marlee, there's something wrong here!

- Yeah, something is definitely wrong, it's you!

You're the evil!

- What are you talking about?

- You're telling me to believe,

to ask anything that I want,

when all the time, it was for you!

Well, are you strong now?

Marlee!

- What is it you really want, was it me?

Is that it?

- What, you're talking crazy, Marlee!

Listen to me, I didn't do anything.

Lasky and your sister, I don't know what's going on!

Marlee, I swear, you gotta believe me!

- Oh, yeah, well believe this!

Oh, no!

No, I killed you!

No, this can't be happening!

Please, let this be a dream!

I wish this was all a dream.

What's going on?

Where am I?

- There, there, now rest yourself.

You've been sick with a very high fever.

You're gonna be fine, Nicolette, just fine.

- Nicolette, what are you talking about?

I'm Marlee Colton!

- Everything's going to be just fine.

You were just having a bad dream.

- A dream?

No, the mirror!

My God!

- Nicolette, please, I don't want to hear

any more about this mirror!

Look!

It is just a piece of furniture!

Wood and glass,

good and evil do not do battle in mirrors!

- No, don't, it will escape!

No, you've gotta believe me!

This isn't right, I'm Marlee Colton, please!

You must settle down!

No, not again, somebody!

Please help me, no!
