It's cold out there.

- Can we take my dolly for a ride up the street?

- [Sarah] We're staying in the backyard.

- But I wanted to meet my friends.

- Backyard.

Have you seen my boots?

Did you hide them again?

Hello, Kinmount residence.

Oh, hi, Mom.

♪ East Side, West Side ♪

♪ All around the town ♪

♪ The tots sang ring-around-rosie ♪

♪ London Bridge is falling down ♪

♪ Boys and girls together ♪

- Oh, hi, what's your name?

You have a cute doll, what's her name?

Huh, huh?

Come on.

- [Laurie] Sarah!

Let me go!

Sarah! - Don't worry.

I gotta go, bye.

Laurie.

Laurie!

Laurie!

Laurie!

Laurie!

Laurie!

Laurie.

Laurie.

Are you ready?

We need to go.

Hey, you okay?

- Yeah.

(crying)

It's all my fault.

- What are you talking about?

- Mom and Dad were driving down to see me, Sarah, in my car.

- No, Laurie, it was an accident.

- They were only on that road because of me.

- And that is what they would have wanted.

They were doing what they loved most

and what they've done from the minute we both were born.

They were looking after us.

- Sarah.

Sarah.

- They died happy.

Oh, as happy as the day that you came home to us.

And they went together.

Like two people who really love each other should.

Come on.

We've got a church full of people waiting.

- John and Marie Kinmount exemplified the values

of home and family.

They understood that a strong family could only take root

in a community that looked after everyone's needs.

They left this world a better place

and they leave behind two fine young women

who embody their values.

One a county prosecutor,

the other an honor student with a bright future.

John and Marie never asked anything for their good works.

They conquered great adversity with an amazing grace.

In their memory,

please join me in singing their favorite hymn.

♪ Amazing grace, how sweet the sound ♪

♪ That saved a wretch like me ♪

(Laurie screams)

- Laurie.

(crowd murmuring)

- Is she all right?

- Come on, I'm a doctor.

Come on here, come on.

You're all right, you're all right, yes, you're okay.

Huh?

You're okay.

Huh?

That's good.

Just a little overwhelmed.

Would be best if she went home.

(church bell ringing)

- I don't know what came over me.

It was so weird, I've never fainted before.

- Well, you've been through a lot.

Let me get this.

- And don't be too hard on yourself, my dear.

These things happen.

- Do I know you?

- No, we just came to pay our respects.

Now forget me and let your big sister take care of you.

- You both have been so kind.

I haven't even asked you your names.

- Hawkins, Billy Hawkins, my wife Carla.

- Our condolences.

- Allan Grant.

What kind of doctor are you?

- Pardon me?

- What kind of doctor are you?

- Oh, philosophy actually.

It looked like you needed somebody

to take control of the situation, so.

- [Carla] And Billy's a good judge of human nature.

He just understands.

- Television.

You're that Random Acts of Generosity guy.

- Actually, he's the competition.

My message is more about helping others

in order to help yourself.

- [Allan] Good work feels great.

- Pays well too.

Your parents were wonderful people, Sarah.

I want you to know their lives were much appreciated.

- Thank you.

- And now go.

Take care.

You and Laurie make a lovely couple.

- Oh, we're not.

I'm her English professor.

- Oh.

Forgive me, you seemed so close.

- (laughs) Billy.

Did you really have to do that?

- I needed to be certain.

- And are you?

- I'm not sure.

(dramatic music)

(Laurie screaming)

- Laurie, Laurie, it's okay.

It's okay.

Honey, it's a nightmare.

(Laurie gasping)

- The knife, Sarah.

The knife's back.

- When Laurie was four years old, she was abducted.

And she was gone for two years.

It was hell for my parents.

Me too.

I was babysitting her when it happened.

She was eventually found alone and lost near Pittsburgh.

- What was she like when she came home?

- Different.

Afraid to go to bed.

She refused my father's attention

and even then I was sure she'd been abused

but she didn't remember anything.

- Did she have a thorough medical examination

after she was found?

- Mm-hmm, she had a few sessions with a psychiatrist

but my parents never said what went on.

- Yes, pretend it didn't happen was

the prevailing attitude of the time.

Most people felt that if you ignored abuse,

it would just be forgotten.

- And I guess I did the same.

Laurie seemed to get better.

She even dated in high school.

She was never really interested in men

until Gregg Bennett came along last year.

And then she ended that.

- How's she been since your parents' deaths?

- She's been having nightmares.

The same one she had as a child.

And I feel so responsible.

- What kind of nightmares?

- There's just one.

She calls it the knife dream.

In it, someone cuts her throat.

Dr. Donnelly, I feel uncomfortable talking

about Laurie like this but--

- But I've consulted on half a dozen of your cases

and you didn't know who else to approach.

- Thank you for agreeing to meet with me.

Can you recommend anyone who can help?

- No.

I have an open appointment tomorrow.

You don't think I'm qualified.

- No, you're one

of the most respected psychiatrists in the state.

I can't ask you to treat Laurie.

- Well, all you'll do is convince her to see me.

She'll decide who treats her.

- Well, that may be the hardest part.

He's a wonderful doctor, Laur.

- I don't need to see a shrink,

I need to get on with my life and go back to my classes.

- Okay, but wouldn't it be easier

if you got a good night's sleep?

- The dream doesn't happen every night.

- Do you remember the sleepwalking case I prosecuted?

The guy who killed his wife

while fighting monsters in his nightmares?

- Yeah, I remember.

- Well, the defense had three psychiatrists

who all claimed it was possible.

In 10 minutes,

Dr. Donnelly completed destroyed their argument.

And he's an expert.

- Sarah.

- One appointment.

And if you don't like him, I won't mention it again.

- I'll think about it.

Now I've got to get back to this English paper.

I'm gonna be up all night as it is.

- Okay.

Just, I need an answer by the morning.

- I promise.

Bye.

- Bye.

- The message of the universe is clear.

Good work feels great.

Give up your life and you receive a hundredfold.

You've all felt it.

Buy a bum a cup of coffee.

Toss a street kid a quarter.

You feel good, you feel great.

But I know you're asking "Where's my cup of coffee?

"Who's got a quarter for me?"

Right?

Remember, good work feels great

and being rich feels a whole lot better.

Let me show you how.

- [Man] And cut.

- Bravo, Billy.

That was your best show ever.

The warehouse won't be able to keep up with all the orders.

Do you think maybe we could get away for a few weeks,

somewhere warm?

- I've been thinking about the girl.

She was so childlike, lost,

and in need of compassion.

We should get in touch.

- [Carla] Billy.

- I don't like the way that professor looked at her.

She's vulnerable right now.

He might take advantage.

- Billy, now's not the time.

Money's rolling in,

your engagements are booked weeks in advance,

Seen and Seen Magazine is at work on a cover story.

- The universe took her parents to make room for us

and you know we always must do what the universe asks.

We need to find a reason to see her

and make sure she doesn't remember.

- Billy, I just--

- She'll be quiet, Carla.

All we need to do is remind her of her promise.

(phone ringing)

- Hello?

Laurie's room, a sleepy Sharon speaking.

- Hey, Sharon?

Is Laurie there?

- I picked up because her machine conked out

on her the other day.

Sarah?

- Yeah.

Do you know where she is?

She told me she'd be working all night.

- No, she went out.

And by the look of her, she had a really hot date.

You wanna leave a message?

- No.

I'll call in the morning.

- Cool.

(phone beeps)

(ominous music)

(phone ringing)

- Hello?

- Laur, I'm sorry it's so early

but you were out when I called last night.

- [Laurie] Out?

Who told you I was out?

I was up until four with that damn paper.

- Whatever.

Did you make a decision about Dr. Donnelly?

- You're not letting this go, are you?

- [Sarah] Can you be there at 10?

- Okay.

Bye.

(sighs)

- Sarah tells me that you feel responsible

for your parents' accident.

Is that a fair statement?

- I broke an appointment for a DMV inspection.

My dad took the car in for me.

He and my mom were driving into Colbert when...

- Why'd you break the appointment?

- The mechanic was a creep.

He kept leering at me.

- Do men often make you feel uncomfortable?

- Some.

Look, two things have gone wrong in my life

and they're both my fault, I admit it.

- Two things, your parents' deaths and?

- And somebody grabbed me off the street when I was four.

I was away two years.

- Why would that be your fault?

- I was forbidden to go in the front yard alone but I did.

- I see.

Well, what do you remember from the times you were away?

(gentle music)

- Nothing.

- But you remember things from before.

You must remember something.

Most people remember a great deal of their formative years.

The first day of school, (mumbles) their pets.

You must remember something.

Find it a little hard to believe.

It's okay, you can tell me.

- Leave the kid alone!

She's been through enough.

- Who are you?

- Kate.

- How long have you been with Laurie?

- Since she was four.

- And what can you tell me about the knife dream?

- If you make her talk about that, the dream will come true

and I will not stand by and let you kill her!

(dramatic music)

(cars honking)

- Have you ever noticed any significant moments

where Laurie can't remember where she's been

or what she's done?

- Lots, there was one last night.

She said that she was staying in to work on a paper

and her roommate said she went out.

And this morning, she claimed that she was home.

- And that happens often?

- She's very protective about her privacy.

- More than you might imagine.

Your sister's manifesting a condition

called Dissociative Identity Disorder, DID for short.

It means she has multiple personalities.

- What?

- There's nothing to be afraid of.

In fact, it's quite remarkable.

A child powerless against abuse often creates

other personalities or alters to help survive the trauma.

- As a defense mechanism?

- Exactly.

The alters help the child say this isn't happening to me,

it's happening to someone else.

- And this has happened since she was abducted?

- More or less.

I've only met one so far but there may be others.

They're her way of dealing with pain

and the pain of your parents' deaths

most likely brought them back.

- Will she need clinical help?

- Maybe.

But right now, I need your help.

- Anything.

- The greatest danger in treating DID will be Laurie's fear

of losing the protective wall she's built.

You need to watch for any signs that she might harm herself.

- Oh my god.

- I'll be there for both of you every step, Sarah.

But this has to be done,

otherwise Laurie won't ever be well.

(singing in foreign language)

- Hi.

- Hello, stranger.

How's life in the big city?

- Normal.

Traffic from Manhattan was murder.

Why can't you get tenure at Columbia?

- Well, I keep hearing that they have travel agencies

in New Jersey too.

- Not ones with Anne Webster's millionaire client list.

- That's true.

How is the old broad?

- More maddening by the day.

But in one month, business gets transferred to me

and you can get a job in the city.

- Okay.

- Thanks.

Here, you have a letter from Leona.

What is it now, another oath of her undying love

or (mumbles) remembrance of your last tryst?

- Pretty remembrance.

Oh, it's kinda juicy.

You should try this.

Look at that.

(mumbling)

- Pain in my heart?

Why aren't you taking this seriously?

- Because they're obviously just fantasies.

- Why haven't you been to the dean about it?

- Because they're from some student

who has some personal issues.

- That can ruin your career.

- And her life.

- What about our love song?

- Karen, I'm not gonna turn some poor misguided girl

who writes bad porn over to administration.

They'll have her tarred and feathered.

As soon as I find out who this Leona is,

I'll do what I can to get her some help, okay?

- All right, well, you know you'll only make matters worse.

Sometimes I think you like this kind of attention.

- What?

- I heard this campus gossip.

Female students calling you Sexy Allan, flirting with you.

- Oh, Karen.

- Sometimes I think this secret admirer

is only a secret from me.

- Don't be ridiculous.

- No, I'm not, listen, we can't leave it like this.

If you don't wanna do it for your career, do it for us.

I mean it, Allan, I'm not gonna put up with this anymore.

- Okay, okay.

(kisses)

- That's not it.

Why can't I get this right?

- [Woman] Maybe you're not smart enough.

- [Woman] That shrink's confusing you.

You shouldn't see him anymore.

- [Woman] You're trying too hard, honey.

Sexy Allan already likes you.

You don't need to impress him.

- God!

(phone ringing)

- Hey, Mark.

How's my miserable heartless senior prosecutor?

- Still miserable and heartless.

So how's the Mays' case shaping up?

- Slow but sure.

Did we set a trial date?

- A week from Thursday.

- What?

- [Mark] Wanna hand it off to Durant?

- No, I'll be ready.

- Sarah, you've got a lot on your plate.

- I can handle it, Mark.

Nobody else knows this case like I do.

I'll convict this guy.

- Okay.

If you need anything, just ask.

- Hi. - Laurie.

- Have you had a chance to read over my paper

on Emily Dickinson yet?

I hope I'm not interrupting anything.

- Not at all.

Professor West and I were just finishing up.

Could you bring those back

when you finish those assessments, Vera?

- Of course.

- Have a seat, have a seat.

- I'm sorry it was so late.

- Nonsense, it was very well written.

Although you've changed your mind

about Old Em since last term.

- I have?

- Before, you used to feel her genius came

from her being a recluse.

Now apparently you feel she should have had an affair

with her mentor.

- (laughs) Her mentor?

- Charles Wadsworth.

- Oh, I guess I just thought

she should have a physical outlet for her emotions

instead of being afraid of them.

- Very astute.

Always amazed at your ability to think

in several directions at once.

Laurie, did you write this margin note?

- Yeah, um, I can print you up a clean copy.

- No, no, no, no.

Laurie, we need to talk.

(knocking)

Karen.

- I took the afternoon off, I wanted to surprise you.

Looks like I did.

- No, no, no, Laurie Kinmount, my wife Karen.

- Hi. - Nice to meet you.

- [Allan] Laurie and I were just--

- No, it's all right.

I should get going.

- Thanks, Laurie.

- She the one?

- Karen.

- You weren't home when I called you last night.

You weren't home when I called you this morning.

- I had a faculty dinner and a early class.

Do you need to check my calendar?

- No.

Look, I want to know what's going on between you and Leona.

- Can we talk about this later?

- Okay.

- Karen.

- I just love this staircase.

And here we are, back where we started.

Is there anything else that you'd like to look at again?

- All of it.

No, no, it's perfect.

I have a million ideas about redecorating.

- And isn't that just how you always know

that something's perfect?

(phone ringing)

Oh, shoot.

I have to take this.

Would you just excuse me for a minute?

Thanks.

Betsy Lincoln.

(phone ringing)

- [Justin] Sarah, it's Justin Donnelly.

I have to shift Laurie's next appointment (mumbles).

Could you have her call me?

Thanks.

- So are we thinking of making an offer?

I'm sure that I could persuade Sarah

to consider lowering the price.

- Oh, we're not haggling over the cost.

- We're not?

- Mm-mm, the girls have been through the mill.

Billy is willing to pay them what they want.

- (laughs) Well, what part of heaven did you fall from?

Let's go back to the office.

(dog barking)

- Don't know what to say to her.

- You'll have to let the dean see this.

- Karen, even if he believes I haven't encouraged this,

it'll change the way the faculty looks at me.

Either way, it'll be devastating to her.

- [Karen] That's not your problem.

- Yes, it is.

- [Karen] Why?

- She's very sensitive.

She just lost her parents

and I promised her sister I'd look after her.

- What about me, what about us?

(ominous music)

(phone ringing)

- Hello?

- Laurie, it's me.

I got a call today from Gregg Bennett.

He called to offer you his condolences.

He wants to see you.

- Well, I don't want to see him.

Don't give him my number.

- He just wants--

- No.

Look, don't let him fool you.

He's not the nice guy everybody thinks he is.

- Okay, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to upset you.

Oh, I know this is odd,

but you know where the carving knife in Mom's kitchen went?

- No, you know I never go near those things.

I hate knives.

- Okay.

It's just weird.

I can't find it anywhere.

- Look, I've got more important things to think about

than some stupid knife, okay?

- Are you okay?

- I'm just busy.

Anything else?

- Yeah, actually there is.

Dr. Donnelly needs you to call,

we're shifting an appointment.

- Sarah, do I have to keep seeing him?

Why can't you all just leave me alone?

- Laurie, he's helping you, I know he is.

Please stick with it?

For me.

- All right.

Look, sorry to blow up about that stupid knife.

I'm just tired, okay?

- Okay.

Sleep tight.

- Yeah.

(sighs)

- Billy, are you sure this is a good idea?

I don't want people to suspect I took that knife.

- That's the least of our problems.

Leigh may have given herself to another man, Opal.

- Billy, you're not Bic anymore and I'm not Opal

and Laurie is not Leigh.

Put her out of your mind.

Seen and Seen Magazine called today.

Hiding the scams we pulled before this one

will be hard enough.

We don't need any more problems.

- [Billy] We don't have problems, Opal.

All we have now are opportunities.

- Did you get a chance to read the data I gave you

on dissociative disorders?

- Mm-hmm.

- Anything you didn't understand?

- Uh, no, but it's kind of creepy.

- Oh, don't think of it that way.

We've all gone for a drive, drifted off,

missed some of the journey.

That's all dissociation really is.

- Only I have people fill in for me.

- Exactly.

Why don't we talk about some of the things

that came up last time?

Do you know anyone named Kate?

- Katherine's my middle name.

When I was a little kid and I wanted to be grown up,

I called myself Kate.

- And what else stands out from your childhood?

- Um, I loved to read.

Summer at the beach.

Cheerleading in high school.

- [Justin] Did you have a boyfriend?

- Nobody serious.

(laughs) Well, one.

Gregg Bennett.

- When was this?

- Last year.

We're not together anymore.

He was too demanding.

Look, I don't want to talk about him, okay?

It was unpleasant.

- Would unpleasant be a word you'd use

to describe the knife dream?

- I should've known we'd get back to that.

Did Sarah call you about the missing knife?

- No.

Is there a reason you relate your dream

to this missing knife?

- Well, they're both carving knives.

Sarah probably thinks I'm planning to kill myself.

- Why would she think that?

- I don't know, she's always watching me,

trying to see if I'm about to flip out or something.

- Why would she think that?

- How do I know?

Look.

Why do I have to answer all of these questions?

- Because we're trying to find out

why you have these nightmares.

- [Laurie] I told you everything I know.

- I don't think you have.

- You're doing it again, aren't you?

- Kate, thank you for looking after Laurie,

but I'm not gonna harm her.

- Oh, aren't you sweet?

- Laurie?

You okay?

- I've got a headache.

- Okay.

Well, that's all for today.

We don't need to do any more.

(screaming)

- He's wearing me out!

Sometimes I think he's making me lose my mind.

(phone ringing)

(screams)

- Hello?

- Sarah, it's me.

How is she?

- Pretty upset.

What happened?

How can a severed chicken head end up in your office?

- I'm not certain.

I have a difficult patient who's part of a cult.

This is the sort of thing he'd do.

- Well, I hope you convince Laurie it won't happen again.

She's insisting she's not going back.

- I understand.

But the fear she's describing means we're getting somewhere.

Now we just have to find out

why this event had so much meaning.

- I hate to push her.

- Look, I know how hard this is for you

but she's not gonna get any better

unless she deals with her problems herself.

- Well, what am I supposed to do?

- Just be supportive.

That's what you've been doing.

That's what she needs right now.

(Sarah sighs)

(ominous music)

- Hi.

- Hi.

My name's Gregg Bennett, I'm looking for Laurie Kinmount.

- I'm sorry, she got called in for a meeting

with Professor Grant.

- I'll come back later, thanks.

- Anytime.

(knocking)

- Professor Grant?

- [Allan] Laurie.

Thank you for coming.

Please have a seat.

- I hope nothing's wrong.

- No, please leave the door open.

Thank you.

Laurie, it's not uncommon

for a student to develop an attraction to a faculty member,

especially if she's in need of compassion, kindness.

And it's not unusual

that that relationship can be misinterpreted.

- What are you talking about?

- Laurie, I understand the need for fantasy.

I couldn't teach literature if I didn't.

And I also understand

how a fantasy can become real to someone--

- You think I wrote these?

- They're in your handwriting.

Laurie, I know you've just lost your parents

and you've been lonely--

- I did not write these papers.

They're sick and disgusting, I'd never write this!

- Laurie, I had no intention of making these public.

That's why I wanted to--

- Wanted what?

To humiliate me?

Maybe you're the sick one.

Get the pretty girl alone in your office

and see if she gets hot reading filth like this?

- Please keep your voice down.

- Why?

Do you like it better

when people whisper this kind of garbage?

Is that what turns you on?

You sick!

- That's it, stop right there.

- How could you think for one minute

that I would find you attractive,

that I would want to sleep with you?

(screams)

You're pigs, every one of you!

You've only got one thing on your mind!

- Hell is wrong with you?

That's it, I'm dropping you from my classes

until you get some help.

- You do what you like.

I never want to see you again, you disgusting!

You'll regret this.

As God is my witness, you'll regret this.

- [Allan] Laurie!

- All right, let's move along here.

There's nothing more to see.

(upbeat music)

- He is so sweet.

- Professor Grant?

- Nobody nicknamed him Sexy Allan, he earned it.

I can tell.

- [Woman] Did you hear about him and Laurie Kinmount?

- No.

- They had a big lovers' quarrel

over in the English department.

- No way.

- It's true, she wrote a bunch of steamy letters.

I'll bet he had to make a preemptive strike

to make sure his wife didn't get upset.

- Well, if he wants to give me a try,

I will certainly, certainly give his wife something

to be upset about.

(clatters)

- I was trying to handle it as discreetly as I could.

- No, it's not your fault, Allan.

I should have told you what she was dealing with.

I guess I was trying to be discreet too.

Could you send those letters to Dr. Donnelly?

- I'll mail them in the morning.

Does he know about this Leona character?

- I'm not sure but anything you could send him would help.

- Never seen her so angry.

When you see her,

can you tell her I didn't mean to embarrass her?

- Oh, don't worry, I'm sure she'll understand.

Anything else?

- No.

Now I have to call my wife and tell her she was right.

This isn't my day, is it?

- Good luck.

- Thanks.

(phone ringing)

- Hey! - Where is she?

- Whoa, I don't think she feels like speaking to anybody.

- Well, I'm not anybody!

Laurie!

Laurie?

- Gregg, get out of here.

I told you I never want to see you again.

- Why, because of your other boyfriend?

- You are not my boyfriend.

- Then what's going on with the professor?

- Nothing!

No, stop it.

Get out of my room.

- No, this has gone on long enough.

You're gonna tell me what's going on.

And if he touched you, I swear--

- Get out of my room!

Get out of my life!

Get out, get out!

- You better leave or I'm calling the police.

- Get out.

Get out.

(screams)

(ominous music)

(knife clatters)

- There you are.

Ha.

We should get going.

Mrs. Germaine's flight arrives soon.

- Doesn't take more than 40 minutes

to go to Kennedy at this hour.

- Well, we may need to arrange a wheelchair.

She's not well, you know.

- [Karen] And I thought of it.

- Well, I don't see the booking.

- Here it is.

Right there.

- Oh.

Well, what about a red cab?

You know how she shops.

(phone ringing)

- Anne Webster Travel.

- [Allan] Karen, it's me.

- Hi.

You settle the letter business?

- Not really.

- Now are you gonna go to the dean?

- Karen, we need to talk.

- You need to go to the dean, Allan.

- [Allan] We need to talk.

- I can't right now.

Anne and I have to go to Kennedy,

we have to pick somebody up, I can't do it.

- Please, this is important.

- So is my job.

You know, just because you're ready to deal with things,

it doesn't mean I can drop everything here.

- Call me later?

- [Karen] I'll call you from the airport.

(ominous music)

(screaming)

- [Woman] Miss Kinmount, your sister's on line three.

- Laurie?

- Sarah.

Sarah, Professor Grant's been murdered

and the police think I did it.

- What?

Where are you?

- I'm at the state police station.

Sarah, please come and get me.

- Sarah.

- Don't say anything until I get there.

- I just got a call from the state police.

They've arrested Laurie.

- I know.

I'm on my way.

- The only one they'll allow her to see is her lawyer.

- Well, then I guess that makes me her lawyer.

- You can't.

You're a county prosecutor.

- Not anymore, I'm on leave.

(phone ringing)

- Anne Webster Travel.

No, she's away from her desk at the moment.

May I help?

Oh my god.

Yes, I'll get her right away.

- What's wrong?

(crowd mumbling)

- It's just a formality.

- The judge said $150,000.

We don't have that kind of money.

- Don't worry about it.

I'll get you out in a few hours.

(ominous music)

- [Woman] I loved him, I didn't want him to die!

I loved him!

- [Woman] I told you to stay home.

Look what you've done to her!

- [Woman] Karen didn't want Allan, he wanted me.

I wish she was dead instead.

- Miss Kinmount, bail's posted.

Your sister's waiting.

- Oh, it'll be okay, Laur, it'll be okay.

- Where's Laurie?

- Upstairs, she's resting.

Dr. Justin Donnelly, this is Brendan Moody.

I don't know if the two of you have crossed paths

at the prosecutor's office.

- Never had the pleasure.

Heard a lot about you though, Doc.

- Brendan's in our investigations office.

He's gonna help us.

- Well, I've never seen Sarah lose,

so I didn't want to be on the wrong side.

- Well, that's great

because we're gonna need all the help we can get.

Have you read the police reports?

- I watched them type it up.

Sure doesn't look good.

Laurie's threatened the victim,

time of death was around midnight,

nobody can account for her whereabouts during that time.

Knife's the one gone missing from the kitchen.

Allan's blood was on it

and it was on her clothing and on her bracelet.

- Now I don't remember Laurie owning a bracelet like that.

- Well, she probably won't recognize it either.

Neither it nor the dress she was wearing

match her belongings.

It was probably purchased by Leona.

- Her other personalities have that much control?

- Laurie's only hope may be convincing a jury

that an alter committed the crime.

- And that's a dangerous argument.

Even if she's found innocent,

she still might end up in an institution.

- Then we're gonna have to dig up some other evidence.

The papers are full of that fatal attraction angle,

painting Laurie as the jilted lover.

But they're ignoring our professor's situation.

- Which is?

- His wife was never home and I'll wager Sexy Allan

came by his moniker fair and square.

Laurie may not have been the only one

who was involved with this Romeo.

Wanna spend a couple days around the college.

They're burying Allan tomorrow.

I'll be there.

In my experience, the killer usually drops by

to make sure the victim is really dead.

I'll see you later.

- Thanks.

Laurie?

- [Laurie] Come in.

Don't.

- Are you sleeping?

- I was just thinking about things.

I always like this time of day.

It's always quiet, not filled with all those things

you think about in the daylight.

- What were you thinking?

- Allan.

How he came to Mom and Dad's funeral but I can't go to his.

I feel so sorry for him.

He was really good to me.

I can't believe I did this.

- It wasn't you, Laur.

- It was some part of me.

Dr. Donnelly says

that I'm not supposed to be afraid of them,

that they're just other versions of me,

but I don't know how I could be so evil and angry

and not know it.

He was so kind, Sarah.

He made me feel really smart and special.

I didn't mean to hurt him.

I didn't.

(kisses)

- Which one's the widow?

What does a college professor make these days?

- Hour's half gone, Laurie.

You've hardly said a word yet.

Anything you want to tell me?

Okay.

There's something else I'd like to try if you're willing.

Hypnosis.

You see, right now the alters decide who will visit

and when and I'd like that to be my call.

And having you hypnotized would let us go deeper.

You willing to give it a try?

- Is it gonna feel weird?

- All you have to do is fall asleep.

(slow music)

Okay.

Just relax, Laurie.

Do you feel comfortable?

- I guess.

- I haven't met you yet, have I?

- No.

- You wanna tell me your name?

- Debbie.

I'm four.

- How are you feeling today, Debbie?

- Sad.

I'm always sad.

- You're always sad?

Why?

- 'Cause I'm always doing bad things.

- What sort of bad things do you do?

- Not supposed to tell.

- You talk to your friends about it?

- I only have one friend and she can't talk.

- She can't talk?

Why can't she talk?

- She's a chicken.

- [Justin] She's a chicken?

(Laurie laughs)

- Yeah.

- Well, tell me about your yard and your house.

- It's a farmhouse.

- Well, who lives there with you?

- I can't tell.

- Yes, you can.

You trust me?

Look at me, you trust me?

Then you can tell me.

Who lives in the house with you?

- Can't tell.

(screaming)

- Debbie, what is it, what do you see?

- The knife.

- [Justin] What is the knife doing?

- Doesn't like me having a friend.

- Is someone holding the knife, Debbie?

- I can't tell.

No, no!

He killed my chicken.

He killed my friend.

(crying)

- Mrs. Grant?

My name is Brendan Moody.

I just wanted to offer my condolences to you.

I'm working your husband's case

and I know that this is not the time or place

but I'd like to talk to you about what happened.

- I told the police everything I know.

- Yeah, I know, I read the reports.

I'm investigating on behalf of the defendant.

I know, I know, this is difficult.

- She took my husband's life, Mr. Moody, I don't think--

- Yeah, I know, she just doesn't remember a thing

about what happened.

I mean, she's sick

and I'm trying to help a jury understand that.

- So she can get off scot-free?

Is that it?

- So we can prevent this tragedy

from hurting more people than it already has.

A lot of people said a lot of nice things

about your husband this afternoon

and I know that he was trying to help Laurie.

And...

- Out of respect for his memory,

you want me to do the same.

- Yeah.

- You can come to the house.

- Thank you.

- [Justin] You sure you feel okay?

- Yeah, I feel a little weak.

What's this?

- That's a journal.

I want you to start writing down your thoughts,

no matter how trivial they might seem.

- And what about the others?

- Well, if they've got something to say,

they'll make entries too.

Just relax, see what ideas or memories come to you.

There's no right or wrong to this and I think it'll help.

Okay?

- Okay.

- I'll see you tomorrow.

- Bye.

(ominous music)

- Billy, aren't you supposed to be looking

at pictures of us from our early days

for Seen and Seen Magazine?

- She was such a lovely child.

- Billy, they should have been burned like the others.

- No, no, no, these are precious.

This one was taken when she made the cheerleader squad.

And here is the graduation photo.

- They need to be burned.

That doctor's digging around in her head.

No one should find them.

- You worry too much.

Leigh won't betray us.

She knows we're watching.

She got our message.

- [Carla] Maybe we need to send her another message.

- [Brendan] How long had Allan been receiving these letters

from Leona?

- A few months.

And they were patently ridiculous.

She was talking about nights

where Allan and I had been together,

describing things that I knew just weren't Allan.

- Did you think there was any truth in what she was writing?

- No.

No, I didn't.

I just wished he would have turned them over to the dean.

- Why didn't he?

- I don't know, I told him.

He was just too good-hearted.

He was a friend of their family

and he just couldn't bear to hurt her.

- [Anne] Brought you some tea before I go back to the city.

And the mail came.

Lots of cards.

- Thank you, Anne.

- Now you sure I can't do anything else before I go?

- No, it's all right.

- No?

I'll get going then.

Nice to meet you, Mr. Moody.

- Likewise.

- And Karen, we'll cover for you

until you feel up to coming--

- I'll come in tomorrow.

Thanks. - Okay, sweetie.

- I can't stay here.

Thank you.

- It must have been tough.

Being away so much.

Why didn't you find a job closer to home?

- Mrs. Webster was retiring.

I was taking over the business

and Allan and I would have finally been financially set.

- When did you last talk to him?

- At 10:30.

He was upset about Laurie.

- Did he call you at your apartment?

- No.

We were at the airport and,

because Anne and I went to Kennedy to pick up a client

and the plane was late.

We only came home after midnight.

And I wanted to call, but I didn't.

- Something wrong?

- It's a letter from Leona.

She's threatening to kill me.

- Now Sarah, I need you to sign these on every page

and then I want you to initial where you see an X.

Good.

- And thank you for agreeing not to take possession

until the trial's over.

- Is it okay for us to drop by?

I want to give the decorators what they need but--

- [Sarah] No, no, no, not a problem.

- What about Laurie?

- Oh, we'll manage, thank you.

- And there we are.

Mr. and Mrs. Hawkins, welcome to your new home.

And Sarah, you have found yourself some fine new owners.

Now I always bring along a bottle of champagne,

I've got it chilling in the car.

I can go get it.

- Well, we really should be going now.

- Yes, we've imposed enough.

Save the champagne

for the day we finally throw these squatters out.

(laughs)

(slow music)

(phone ringing)

- Hello?

- Sarah, it's Mark Levine.

- Hey, Mark, what's up?

- Karen Grant just got a threatening letter from Leona.

The handwriting is identical to the others.

- Oh no.

- It's a clear violation of Laurie's bail

and Mrs. Grant is on the warpath.

I have no choice but to return Laurie to custody.

(Laurie screaming)

- Please believe me, he'll never stop.

He'll never stop.

(screams)

(clears throat)

- Laurie, I need to speak with Debbie.

Why'd the picture scare you, Debbie?

- I can't tell you.

- Debbie, why can't you tell me?

Why not, Debbie?

No, no, no more secrets, Debbie.

No more secrets.

We need to know and we need to know now.

- Well, just burn the damn photograph, it's dangerous!

- Why's it dangerous, Kate?

You know where it was taken?

- We all know and we're not talking.

Every word brings the knife a little closer.

- Debbie's exactly like she was at four years old.

And the other one, Kate,

is a close impersonation of my mother.

- Kate's the protector.

She's based on the adult

who protected Laurie most at that age.

- Justin, I need to know more about this.

The trial date gets closer every day

and we still haven't found anything that might cast a doubt

on the police version of what happened.

- Have you heard anything from Moody?

- He's still nosing around the campus

but believe me, if he found anything,

he'd be shouting it from the rooftops.

I need to be in on the sessions.

- Sarah.

- If I'm gonna save her,

I need to know exactly how her alters operate.

I want to be in on the sessions.

- Okay.

But you may not like what you see.

- Everybody knew Sexy Allan had to be seeing someone.

Always saw him sneaking around the campus late at night.

He was seeing someone.

- You think it could've been Laurie?

- Well, one time I was teasing her

about not having a boyfriend, she said there was someone.

- Who?

- She wouldn't tell.

Then I asked when she dated him

because she never went out on weekends.

She said "What's the point?

"He's busy on weekends."

(knocking)

- [Gregg] Hi.

- Hi.

- I heard Laurie was in jail.

I just figured it'd be safe to come over.

- Gregg.

- Nobody's telling me anything, Sarah.

And I'm so worried about her.

I want to help.

I can't stand by and watch this happen.

- Come on in.

- Thanks.

I never felt closer to anyone.

You know, I could've sworn she felt the same way.

- You guys made a great couple.

Our parents were hoping to be grandparents.

- Yeah.

We're a ways from being that close.

- What happened between you two?

- One morning, she just came over and she started screaming

that she never wanted to see me again.

- Do you want me to see if she'll let you visit her?

- I'd love that.

But I don't want to cause her any more pain.

- Oh, no, I understand.

But let me run it by Justin.

He's convinced if she discovers what triggers her anger

and fear, it'll cure her.

Maybe that's the way you can help her most.

- Yeah.

- [Justin] I see Kate and Leona have seen fit

to write me some notes.

- Yeah, I don't think they like you very much.

I'm sorry.

- Don't apologize.

The better we both get to know them,

the easier it'll be to find out everything they know.

- I don't know what that is.

I must have been doodling.

- [Justin] They're from Debbie.

She can't read or write yet, so she's drawing us pictures.

- What do they mean?

- Let's ask her.

(gentle music)

Can you hear me, Laurie?

I want to talk with Leona first.

- I was wondering when you'd finally want to see me.

Worth the wait?

- Oh, yes.

- Got a cigarette?

- No, no, I'm sorry, I don't smoke.

- I hope that's the only thing you don't do.

- Um, tell me about Allan, Leona.

What kind of relationship did you two have?

- He was the kiss and tell, not me.

- But you'd been to his house.

- Uh huh.

I went over any time I wanted.

There was a terrace door he always left unlocked.

He was so lonely.

He didn't deserve the way Karen treated him.

I would have been so much better for him.

- Would have been?

You weren't sleeping with him?

- I told you, I don't kiss and tell.

- Right.

Tell me about the night Allan died.

- I don't want to talk about that either.

- Okay.

Then can you tell me how you felt

when you knew he was dead?

- Look, I'm sorry I had the knife.

I was so angry at him.

I shouldn't have brought it along but I did,

but I won't talk about it.

- I wanna talk with Debbie.

(Laurie giggles)

I got your pictures, Debbie.

Wanna tell me what they are?

- Um, that one is a little girl

and a man singing and rocking in a rocking chair.

- Rocking in a rocking chair.

That sounds like fun.

What are they singing?

- They're singing.

♪ East Side, West Side ♪

♪ All around the town ♪

(screaming)

- Debbie?

Debbie, Debbie, Debbie?

It's all right.

(crying)

What's wrong, what's wrong?

- It's time to go upstairs.

I don't wanna go!

I don't wanna go!

- [Justin] You don't have to go today,

you don't have to go today.

You don't have to go today, Debbie.

- Hope you got enough room for another patient, Doc,

because this case is starting to drive me nuts.

- You haven't found anything?

- No.

There's enough smoke to suggest

that Grant was lighting somebody's fire,

but I can't figure out who.

- Well, it may have been Laurie.

Leona's a very sensual woman, she was obsessed with him.

And having that knife is definitely not a good sign.

- Well, maybe I should take another run

at the professor's wife.

She's got an airtight alibi

but I still feel that I can get something from her.

- I spoke with Laurie about Gregg earlier this afternoon.

She's agreed to see him.

- That's good.

I'm convinced that whatever happened between them

is somehow related to whoever abused her.

If she can trust him again, she may open up.

- One problem solves the other.

- Exactly.

- Tell me something.

You think any of this other stuff is related?

- What do you mean?

- I don't know.

Chicken head seems a long way out of its turf.

Knife goes missing well before Laurie

and lover boy have their blow up.

Chicken, picture.

I don't know, it all seems to me

like somebody's trying to shake her up.

- Who?

Why?

- Hey, I'm just a cop.

You're the college boy.

Look, all I'm saying is it's a little out of the ordinary.

- Yeah, well, we better come up with something fast.

Right now, the only responsible option I have

is pleading her guilty.

By reason of insanity.

- Okay, Laurie, I just want you to relax

and go with whatever you feel.

Sarah and I are right here with you.

It's early on a Saturday morning

and you've just gone to Gregg's house.

- I'm wearing a dress.

Hey, sleepyhead.

Brought you some muffins.

- What are you doing here so early?

- I'm going home for the weekend.

Look, offer to tag along is still open.

- I can't, this term paper's due tomorrow.

Blueberry, all right!

- Once they were open,

I got them to make you an extra batch.

- [Gregg] You're amazing.

- Sure, look, I gotta go, okay?

Call me?

- [Gregg] You bet.

- Okay.

- Hey, thanks for being so thoughtful.

(Laurie screams)

- Debbie?

Is that you?

What did Gregg do that upset you?

- He grabbed me.

- Grabbed you.

What happened when he grabbed you?

Debbie, what happened when you were grabbed?

- I don't know.

Whenever he grabbed me, I floated away.

- [Billy] 48.

- All right, 48.

You know, we can't tell you how much we appreciate this.

Our architect is finalizing

the renovation drawings right now.

- Yes, he would have come himself

but we didn't want to disturb by strangers.

33.

- 33.

Oh, we're not keeping you from anything, are we?

- No, I'm expecting a phone call.

Laurie's being examined by a court psychiatrist

and if he approves, her bail will be reinstated.

- Wouldn't that be wonderful?

Carla, that's wonderful.

- Good news, they released Laurie into my custody.

- Oh, thank God.

- There is nothing we've wanted more

than to see dear little Leigh come home.

- Laurie, dear, not Leigh.

- Oh.

Now I know I've been working too hard.

Some days, I don't remember my own name.

(laughs)

- [Vera] I already told the police everything I know.

- Well, I'm just trying to get some background.

Find out what kind of man Professor Grant was.

- He was wonderful.

- Did you work together?

- Yes.

Allan nominated me for the faculty

and helped me get the job.

We became good friends.

Professional friends.

- How much,

(laughs) how much did you know about his home life?

- Only that he didn't have one.

Karen came home most weekends

but she didn't get involved in his life here.

- Well, she indicated they had an understanding on all that.

- All I know is that he was very lonely.

- How close was your friendship?

- He used to come by my place quite often to talk

or simply to be with someone.

- You know, I've been hearing a lot of rumors.

You think he could have been involved

with one of his students?

Perhaps Laurie Kinmount?

- Allan would never do that, he had too much integrity.

- Miss West, there had to be something

to the Sexy Allan reputation.

A guy doesn't have half the student body drooling over him

for no reason.

I mean, he had to be involved with somebody.

- You didn't know him.

He wasn't like that.

- How can you be sure

that he wasn't sleeping with Laurie Kinmount?

- Because he was sleeping with me.

(crying)

- According to Miss West,

Allan's call to Karen wasn't to talk about Laurie.

It was to ask for divorce.

- I don't know if that will make much difference.

The Leona alter admits she was in Allan's den

with the knife.

- I don't know, Sarah.

Maybe it's this crappy cafeteria food I'm eating,

but my gut's telling me there's something more to this.

- Yeah, well, where do we go from here?

- Well, I'm looking over the campus police records

for the night of the murder.

Calls on prowlers, break-ins, anything suspicious.

Hopefully something will turn up.

Get yourself some rest, all right?

(Sarah sighs)

- Leona.

I want to know what happened in Allan's den.

(laughs)

- I've already told you, I was there.

- No, I need to know exactly what happened

from the moment you walked through the terrace door.

- He'd fallen asleep on the couch, as usual.

And the door was open.

I set my bag down.

- What were you thinking?

What were you thinking?

- I was thinking about how lonely he looked.

I know what it's like to feel lonely.

- What else?

- I thought of all the times I wouldn't let Daddy hold me

after I came home.

We were so much the same.

I just, I...

I sat down and I cried.

- [Sarah] What happened next?

- I...

I left.

I heard someone coming.

- [Sarah] You just left?

- I heard someone coming and I got scared.

- Leona, tell me about the picture that scared Debbie.

Where'd it come from?

- It was in our room.

- You'd seen it before?

- Yeah.

Yeah, when she was away.

- It was taken after she was abducted?

Leona, who took it?

Leona.

Who took it?

- The one who took her.

(crying)

- She's sleeping.

- There is no way that photograph would have been

in her room all these years.

I mean, if it scared her,

Kate would have gotten rid of it a long time ago.

- After the accident, we searched all over

for documents the insurance people needed.

Could have fallen from one of the boxes.

- Has anyone been in the house since?

- Dozens of people.

The house has been up for sale for weeks.

Can you get her to remember who took that picture?

- That face is locked deeper than what happened to her.

- [Brendan] Campus police picked you up for prowling?

- I'm no prowler.

I'd been out with some friends

and it was way past team curfew.

I was just trying to get home without anybody seeing me.

That Kinmount girl was gonna be my alibi

until I saw the morning papers.

- Laurie Kinmount.

- Yeah.

- She's not mentioned in this report.

- I know.

I didn't want to get involved, I was in enough trouble.

- What time did you see her?

- After last call.

One thirty.

- Hey.

Got a cigarette?

- Yeah, what's it worth to you?

- Did you notice any blood on her clothing?

- No.

And I was looking real close, if you know what I mean.

- [Brendan] Did you offer her a cigarette?

- Offered to sell her one.

Babes like it when I tease them.

- And did she pay you?

- She didn't, she wasn't carrying her purse.

- Wait here.

- So I waited, who wouldn't?

She was looking hot.

- Waited how long?

- A while.

Was just about to give up when she came out,

running full tilt, hugging her purse.

She had blood on her bag.

- She left the knife behind.

- With enough time for somebody else to use it.

- Yeah, but she was still there, Sarah, blood or no blood.

- But the dots aren't connecting.

There is something else going on here.

(knocking)

- Oh, hello.

I'm afraid Karen isn't here.

- It's you I want.

- (laughs) Oh, well.

Have a seat.

- [Brendan] Tell me what you

and Karen did the night Allan died.

- Well, we went to Kennedy to pick up an elderly client.

She called from London asking for our help.

Poor dear, wasn't feeling very well.

- What time was that?

- That would be before nine.

Her plane was due in at 9:30

but it was delayed until midnight.

- Karen talk to her husband during that time?

- Yes, he called on her cell phone about 10:30

and they talked for quite a while.

- And how did she seem after she hung up?

- She was angry, you know, distracted, but we both were.

Our whole evening was shot.

So we watched a movie in the VIP lounge while we waited.

"Spartacus."

Oh, and Karen left to make some calls.

- You really sat there for three hours and watched a movie?

- Well, I may have dozed off a little.

I mean, I love "Spartacus" but I have seen it 50 times.

- Did anything seem out of the ordinary?

- Well, when I woke up, Karen wasn't there

but a clasp on her bracelet had come loose

and she'd been all over the airport looking for it.

- Anything else?

- Well, yes.

When she drove to the airport, her fuel light was on.

I thought we were gonna run out of gas.

But when we went home,

I noticed that the tank was almost full.

- Okay, just relax, Laurie.

Going to look in your journal.

- There's not much new.

Kate says she hopes Laurie goes to prison

so she'll be safe there.

No one can get to her.

- So she thinks her job as protector is almost done.

Anything else?

- There's a new drawing from Debbie.

My dad gave my mom that necklace when we were teenagers.

It was a kind of an iridescent stone, a birthstone.

- Laurie, I wanna talk with Debbie.

It's a pretty picture, Debbie.

- No, it's not.

- [Sarah] Wait.

- Don't, don't.

- She hated that necklace.

- Don't, don't say that word.

Don't say that word, it's a forbidden word.

- What was the name of that stone?

- Describe the stone.

- It's a milky white with bright greens and blues.

- An opal?

- No, no, no.

- Debbie, why is Opal a forbidden word?

- No, no, I'm not supposed to say it.

I'm not supposed to say it.

- Do you have any other forbidden words?

- One, one.

- Well, we already know about Opal,

so you can tell us, okay?

It's all right.

- Bic.

(screaming)

- Debbie, why are the words Bic and Opal forbidden?

Who told you that?

- She learned those words from the people who took her.

- Well, you're new.

What's your name?

- I don't know you well enough yet.

- Okay.

You know who killed Allan Grant?

- None of us did.

He was dead when we came back for Laurie's bag.

- Tell me what happened.

- [Woman] Take the knife, Leona, take the knife.

(gasps)

- [Justin] What did you pick up from the floor?

- [Laurie] A bracelet.

I thought it was Leona's.

- All right, you've been very helpful.

We know Laurie didn't try and hurt Allan.

Thank you.

Can you tell us your name now?

- My name is Leigh.

(sirens wailing)

- Thank you.

- Mrs. Grant, thank you for coming.

You've met Brendan Moody.

- Yes.

I thought we'd already gone over my testimony.

- Yeah, we just need to ask you a few more questions.

Please, sit down.

- Sure.

- Mrs. Grant, you have the right to remain silent

and refuse to answer any questions.

Anything you say may be used against you in a court of law.

You have the right to an attorney.

You have the right-- - What are you talking about?

What's going on here?

- Is this your signature?

- Yes, from the gas station.

We go there all the time, it's a block away from our house.

Is this supposed to be significant?

- It's dated around the time that Allan died.

- That's impossible.

- Professor Vera West is willing to testify

that Allan asked you for a divorce

on the night that he died.

- That's ridiculous.

- His voice is on her answering machine,

saying just that.

We found this bracelet in Laurie Kinmount's bedroom.

Ever see it before?

- No.

I hardly know the woman.

- Are you sure?

- This appraisal from the jewelry store next to your office

indicates that it was sold to you.

- I don't, I may have one like it.

- No.

It's yours.

You see, the clasp here slips.

The store offered to change it.

You were supposed to take it in the day after Allan died.

But you didn't keep the appointment.

- He said there was someone else.

(ominous music)

You creep!

You've been sleeping with her,

you've been sleeping with her!

(crying)

I really loved him.

I loved him.

- Opal, this is such good news.

Our Leigh is finally free.

Opal, we must go and embrace her.

- Billy, please try to understand that you--

- Look at that face.

She still looks like a little girl.

Look at her face.

- Stop it, Billy, stop saying things like that!

(smacks)

- The universe tells me what I need to do.

- Really?

Then what does the universe tell you to do about this?

They lied to us.

It's an expose.

- Leigh can't see this photograph.

She can't.

- No, no!

Please don't!

(gasps)

- The knife dream?

- It's all right.

I told you it would intensify

before it disappears, remember?

Old fears kinda die hard.

- The sun's come out.

- What do you say we go for a walk?

We'll work up an appetite

before our last dinner at the house.

- Okay.

- You guys go ahead.

I got a couple calls to make.

- [Sarah] Okay, come on.

- [Laurie] It was a day just like this when I left you.

- [Sarah] You didn't leave, somebody took you from me.

- No, I wasn't supposed to be out front.

You know, no matter what you or Justin say,

if I'd have listened to you, it wouldn't have happened.

- If somebody grabbed one of those little girls

and they wanted to hurt her, would that be her fault?

- No.

No, it wouldn't.

- Then forgive yourself like you forgive her.

- I didn't know what to do, Sarah.

He put me in his car.

I was crying and the lady with him slapped me.

Then he grabbed me and he hurt me.

We'd sing, we'd sing all around the town.

He's in the rocking chair.

- Who, who, Laurie?

Who was he?

- His name was Bic.

And Opal, and she'd slap me when I cried.

Don't make any noise, Leigh, he'll use the knife.

- Leigh?

- Their names were Bic and Opal and they called you Leigh?

- There is nothing we've wanted more

than to see dear little Leigh come home.

- Oh my god.

- Bic, he killed my chicken.

And Opal said he'd do the same if I told.

I couldn't tell, I couldn't tell.

- It's okay.

- No one is going to hurt you again, Laurie.

- Let's get her inside.

- [Sarah] Yeah.

- [Justin] We'll call Moody.

- It's gonna be okay, hon.

It's okay.

- Did my alters know all this and keep it from me?

- Yes.

And now that you've remembered,

they'll begin to blend into you.

- Because they've been parts of who I really am all along.

- Yes.

Debbie is the child you used to be.

Kate is your sense of self-preservation.

Leona is the self you suppressed because of what happened.

- I'm a sex kitten?

What about Leigh?

- Leigh was the key.

He was the imaginary friend

who floated you away from the pain.

He helped you endure

until the others could assume their roles.

What did Moody have to say?

- He's got every cop in the area on the case.

Moody wants Justin and I to go to the command center now.

Are you sure you'll be okay?

- I'm okay with this, Sarah, don't worry.

(dog barking)

(ominous music)

What are you doing here?

- You forgot your promise, didn't you?

Make sure we are not disturbed.

(slow music)

Time to go upstairs.

I'm sorry, Leigh,

but you knew this would happen if you talked.

You thought I'd left you behind, huh?

No, I never forgot you.

You were such a dear, sweet girl.

I touched you at the funeral,

I had to get close to you again.

- I felt your evil presence in the church.

That's why I fainted, but I am not afraid of you anymore!

Now it's your turn to feel trapped.

- Drop it!

- Freeze!

(smacks)

- I'm okay, Sarah.

It's over.

This time, it's over.

- Yep, Moody's quite a guy.

Stops for coffee, he sees the picture of Bic and Opal,

and puts two and two together.

- Well, you're quite a guy yourself.

Wasn't for you, we wouldn't know their names.

- Well, I think we owe it all to her.

Took a lot of courage for her to agree to be bait.

- I can't remember the last time she was this happy.

- Well, she's with someone she loves.

I hear it does that to you.

- So will her alters come back?

- Not likely.

She doesn't need their protection anymore.

- Any signs I should look for?

- You know, I think you should stop worrying about Laurie

and try and get on with your own life.

Let's leave the kids to play.
