Original subtitles

No, no, no. Don't touch that dial.

Here's what's on my mind tonight.

[laughing]

(male narrator) Emma's new home has a lurid past.

That 80 years ago, some guy killed his wife here.

And he slit her throat from ear to ear.

But then, so does Emma.

Imagine driving a man that crazy.

Are there ghosts in her house?

Does she have skeletons

in her closet?

Find out..

Emma's got a<

distorted view of the world.

on the next "Freddy's Nightmares."

[theme music]

[indistinct chattering]

You're in Springwood now

and you're all mine.

[screaming]

[laughing]

[screaming] No!

[evil laugh]

Haunted? Give me a break.

(male #1) 'I'm not kidding you, lady.'

'This place is famous for it.'

I wouldn't kid about a thing like that.

That 80 years ago some guy killed his wife here.

Oh, and that makes it haunted?

All I know is what I hear.

Well, yeah, and?

Oh, you're interested?

Well..

the way I heard it..

Now, this guy is a real jealous type

you know what I mean?

Cut to the chase.

This guy is sure his wife is messing around on him

but he can't catch her.

So one day, when he's supposed to be outta town

he shows up.

And what do you know?

There she is in the bed with another guy.

Let me guess.

He kills them both and their spirits

have been haunting the house ever since.

Well, I don't know what happened to the other guy

but I know this.

The husband chases her into the study..

and he caught her.

And he slit her throat from ear to ear.

Imagine driving a man that crazy.

(Robert) 'What did you say your name was?'

(Jillian) 'Uh, Jillian, sir.'

Emma, this is Jillian.

Uh, the maid.

I didn't hire a maid.

No, you didn't, apparently she comes with the place.

Well, this house is full of surprises.

The moving man was just telling me that it's haunted.

I guess that figures, I mean

'considering what we pay in rent'

'we should have expected a few extras.'

You know, I'm getting to like this place more and more.

It's got character, it's got history.

Ghosts.

Shall I begin unpacking in the kitchen, ma'am?

The kitchen. Yes, please.

Nice guy.

Well... I'm done.

You know, you and I should talk.

Oh, yeah?

Well...

I mean, here you are, new in town.

Here I am, a native.

I could show you around.

I'll bet you could.

Of course, the fact that I'm married

means absolutely nothing to you.

I never let details get in the way of a little fun.

Maybe some other time.

[instrumental music]

[rattling]

[glass shatters]

My pal, Emma's got a distorted view of the world.

[laughing]

She's about to wind up in a prison..

of her own making.

Is it my imagination or was that moving man

hitting on you?

What makes you think every guy is hitting on me

Experience.

Think they're the haunted couple?

Sometimes I think we'rethe haunted couple.

- Robert.. - Hmm?

- You shouldn't have. - I didn't.

Well, then, who did?

It's an anniversary presen from Colin.

'He says, "If this doesn't keep you together'

'then nothing will."'

His and hers handcuffs.

That ex-husband of yours is one sick puppy.

Yeah, well, he wasyour<row1

Do you think this means he's forgiven us?

I'd hate to think what it means.

[door opens]

I thought you might need this.

The study's always a little chilly.

Thank you, Jillian.

Not that a space heater isn't romantic.

I just wish we'd been told

they were gonna brick up the flue..

Jillian, a-about your boss..

Actually, I've never met him.

He was a friend of my father's.

All I know is he lives somewhere in Europe

and I'm paid on the tenth of each month.

Uh, shall I serve dinner now?

Actually, uh..

Emma and I were thinkin' of giving you the night off.

So we could have the house to ourselves.

That's very kind. Thank you.

Europe, huh?

Well, look at it this way.

He'll never call us and tell us to turn down our music.

[instrumental music]

You've gotta work on this

suspicious side of yours.

Maybe a little physical therapy'll help.

I'm willing to look into it.

Let's go break in the bed.

Ah, we can't forget our new..

play things.

I'll go warm up the sheets

[intense music]

[gasps] Robert!

- What's the matter? - The painting.

The woman, she's bleeding.

[music continues]

I won't let you get away from me again, Emma.

No, Collin. It's over.

Robert! Robert!

[chuckles] He can't help you.

He betrayed my friendship and you betrayed my love.

But I'm willing to give yo another chance.

All you have to do is let me love you.

No, Collin.

[grunts]

You're here for a little fun?

[screaming]

Are you alright?

Where's my husband?

He left early this morning

He said he wanted to buy a new lighting fixture

to replace the chandelier.

[sighs]

[instrumental music]

[door bell rings]

Jillian!

[ringing continues]

[mumbling]

[gasps] Collin?

- What are you doing here? - I wanted to say hello.

That's not a crime, is it?

Well, it's nice to see you haven't lost your

defensive tendencies, I'm just surprised to see you.

It's been a long time.

On Thursday, it'll be a year.

I-I..

I wanted to see your house. I wanted to talk.

I'm not here to make you feel guilty.

The hell you're not.

Very nice.

Looks like the kind of place you always dreamed of.

Did you get my gift?

Oh, yes. Very imaginative. Thank you.

How's Robert?

No, I-I-I don't wanna know. I don't care how he is, uh..

'He wasn't much of a friend.'

I'll be honest, I-I came here to tell you

that I still love you.

I-I want us to get back together.

I'll make everything right. I swear it!

What're you gonna do?

You gonna love me some more?

I don't want your love.

Why won't you let me in, what are you afraid of?

Let me love you. I can make you so happy.

Okay, I think you should go now.

- No. - No, I want you to go.

Emma!

I do not want you to call me!

'I do not want you to visit me..'

and I especially do not want you to love me!

The backdoor was open.

Not a good idea.

One of your boxes was left in my truck.

Uh-huh.

Look, maybe you misunderstood me.

I'm not interested.

No, I understood you just fine.

I told you I'm married.

Yeah, well..

I heard what you told that guy.

(man on phone) 'Springwood PD.'

Yes, I would like to report a break in.

'Your name and address, ma'am?'

I know exactly what you're like.

'Hello?'

You've never been faithful

to anyone in your whole life.

- 'Are you alright, ma'am?' - Hey, you're just like me.

Well, I'm the man of your dreams, honey.

I know more about you..

than you know yourself.

I know what you're thinking.

Is he really as good as he thinks he is?

[instrumental music]

[music continues]

I want you to watch me take off my clothes.

But I wanna be sure..

you can't touch.

[music continues]

Okay, Houdini, how are you doing it?

Doin' what?

How did you make the chandelier fall?

And the painting bleed?

Look, I don't know what you're talkin' about

but if you're not gonna take your clothes off

you better take these cuffs off.

Hey, what the hell's goin' on in here?

Hey, hey, look, all I'm doin'

is bringin' back one of your boxes.

Yeah, with your pants half open?

Well, you better ask her about that.

I don't need to.

This is the jerk that's been haunting the place.

Hey, h-hey, wait a minute. Wait a minute.

- Listen to me. - Why listen?

I can see your lipstick on his face.

'The handcuffs are definitely your style.'

(Emma) 'Iam telling the

(Robert) 'Like you used to tell Collin the truth'

'when you and I used to fool around..'

Hey! Wait a minute! Hey!

Maybe I should just kick his teeth in?

How did he get outta those

So much for your ghost.

It's really lame, Emma.

Can't you see there's something weird

going on here?

[chuckling] Weird? Yeah.

Well, I suppose I should be grateful

you didn't have him up in our bedroom.

Go to hell.

[knocking]

[knocking]

Ahh!

[grunting]

You know you want me.

[instrumental music]

You deceitful little bitch.

I knew you were cheating on me.

And you will never..

cheat on me again.

No. No, no!

No!

[screaming] No-o-o!

[gasps]

[breathing heavily]

More coffee?

What time did Robert leave this morning?

Around 6:30.

I know how you feel.

The last time I had a fight with my boyfriend

we didn't talk for three weeks.

Well, I'm here if you need me.

[instrumental music]

Hi, Colin.

It's Emma.

I was just thinking about you.

And I want you to know that I do love you.

And I'm sorry for what happened.

You were really very good to me.

Please call.

I've been thinking about last night.

I've been thinking about it too.

And I made a decision.

I'm going back to Colin.

You what?

I've betrayed a lot of men in my life.

But when I left Colin I betrayed myself.

He's the only man that's really loved me.

You think you're gonna be loyal to him all of a sudden?

I'm sorry. It's the way it's gotta be

You're not walking out on me.

What are you doing?

Robert!

- Let me out! - Hold it! Ah.

But I won't let you do this to anyone else.

(Emma) 'Robert.'

(Robert) 'I want any man who wants you..'

'...to know exactly what he's dealing with.'

No!

[screams]

[rumbling]

[intense music]

[laughs] You shouldn't have.

- I didn't. - Well, then, who did?

Colin.

I got your message. I came immediately.

You can't imagine how wonderful it feels

to hear you say you love me.

I love you so much, I-I-I'd do anything

to get you back.

I'll make you so happy, you know I can.

You know I will, I-I'll buy you a house better than this.

Come away with me, now.

I can't, now.

But tonight, I'll give you an answer.

Tonight?

Yes. Tonight you'll have my answer.

[footsteps approaching]

Alright, we gotta talk.

I'm not gonna be one of your victims, like Colin.

I wanna show you something upstairs.

(Robert) I don't think we should be doing this.

Robert, shut up for once in your life.

Do you know what love is?

'Cause I'm gonna show you what love is.

Does that say anything to you?

I'm not sure.

Maybe you'd better tell me some more.

I love you.

I may not be very good at it, but..

I love you more than anyone in the world.

[instrumental music]

(male #1) 'No!'

[gunshot]

So... I have my answer.

Colin, d-don't be foolish.

Shut up!

Lie down. Right next to her.

It's what you wanted. And what do you want?

I wanted you, but then I found out

you were watching us all along.

Yes. I was going to give you one last chance

but I didn't want to be fooled again.

How did you know I'd come here to this house?

Your real estate agent was told to bring you here..

and paid to be quiet

and I had had the house remodeled.

'Yeah, well, you'd always told me you wanted a house.'

Once here, I knew you'd fall in love with it.

And hopefully with me.

If you'd only told me... I would've..

Dumped Robert?

But you just said you loved him.

Oh, wait. You used to tell me that, too.

Colin, I think we've both been had.

And I think you should kiss her.

Lie down, Emma.

- What? - Kiss her!

Like your life depended on it.

No, Colin, I love you!

And I love you.

[screaming]

A four letter word for torture.

Got it!

L... O..

V...E.

'Lo-ove.'

[laughs]

[instrumental music]

Hey, wait a minute. Hey!

Hey, wait a minute!

Hey! Hey!

[grunts]

'I woke up in my car a few hours later.'

That's all I remember.

I came back a couple days later, but the people were gone.

You mean they moved?

No, I mean they were gone. Not a trace.

Uh, somehow... this thing opens up.

How bizarre.

You worked for the people who lived here, didn't you

Do you know what happened to them?

Not a clue.

And that's exactly how I remember it.

I left on Friday night, they were fine.

I came back back Monday..

Hmm, fascinating. A house with a sense of intrigue.

I like it.

[coughs]

I'll be alright, my dear.

[clears throat]

Alright, I'd like to go to my room now.

[sighs] Do I need to sign something?

Yeah.

You know, we should talk.

I mean, here you are, new in town. Here I am, a native.

I could show you around.

I didn't know Springwood was such a hotbed of tourism.

And to think we just came for a little quiet.

Well, there may not be much to look at

but there sure is a lot to do.

Thanks... but my dance card's full.

You don't mind showing yourself out, do you?

Hey, uh... moving man.

What's your name?

Turk.

Turk.

Maybe I'll see you around sometime.

Good old Turk think he's one hell of a moving man.

Wait till he sees what happens whenl

Yes?

This got left on the truck

Thought I'd bring it by.

Oh, well, thank you, I'll see that Mrs. Hall gets it.

Well, I'd like to give it to her myself.

Mrs. Hall has gone to bed.

Well, her light's still on

Listen to me.

She's a nice lady and he's a sick old man.

And you, you're nothing but a gutter snake out for yourself.

Why don't you leave them alone?

Why don't you go be a maid

Jillian, who is it?

(Turk) 'One of your boxes was left on my truck.'

It's alright, Jillian, I'll take care of it.

You shouldn't have come.

I had to see you.

I doubt you're that desperate.

I want you to leave, right now.

No, you don't.

Come on, what's the deal with you and the old man?

I know you don't sleep together.

I carried boxes into two bedrooms.

That is none of your damn business.

Beautiful woman like you? It's definitely my business.

How long's it been, a year? A decade?

I love my husband.

What's that got to do with anything?

I think you owe it to yourself.

No!

[panting] Not here.

So how long has it been?

[sighs] Two years.

Before Victor's accident.

Seems like a waste.

Amazing woman like you.

Well, you may not believe it, but Victor..

is the kindest, gentlest man in the world.

even the sexiest.

[chuckles] Then what are you doing in bed with me?

Well, there are some thing Victor can't do, but..

doesn't mean there isn't sex of a kind.

We play games.

Nothing with handcuffs.

No.

Victor has a collection of, uh, antique pistols.

We do role-playing.

Sometimes..

he's a spy.

Sometimes he's a pirate.

And he... holds me at gunpoint and..

makes me strip while he watches.

Makes him feel in control.

Control is very sexy.

So he likes guns, uh?

The gun isn't loaded.

Hmm, I might be crazy.

To me, anything less than a hands on experience is stupid.

[Evelyn chuckles]

[Evelyn moans]

[instrumental music]

[Turk laughs]

[Evelyn sighs]

[Evelyn gasps]

- It's Victor. - Yeah?

Quick. It's Victor. If he find you he'll kill you.

Victor.

I didn't expect you'd come this evening, darling.

Well, I wanted to surprise you.

I thought we might play

a little game of Yankee spy.

[chuckles]

'What's the matter?'

You look pale.

(Evelyn) 'Nothing.'

[dramatic music]

No, there's something the matter. I know you.

Something's wrong, I can tell.

(Evelyn) 'Nothing is wrong. I swear it. Victor.'

[gunshot]

[Turk groans]

[Turk gasps]

I just came to say goodnight, my love.

Victor, I can explain everything.

There's no need to explain. Does he satisfy you?

If he does, ask him to stay.

'I only ever want you to be happy.'

[wheelchair squeaking]

That is one very strange guy.

No.

He's the most wonderful ma in the world.

[sighs] So?

Will you?

What? Stay for the night?

No.

Not for the night. Forever

[chuckles]

[birds chirping]

(Victor) 'Good morning, young man, sleep well?'

I wanna know why you're doing this.

Why are you letting me sleep with your wife?

[chuckles] Do you know anything about guns?

'Oh, that's too bad.'

I've devoted my life to them.

You know, young man

there's more than one way to satisfy a woman.

I'd have thought you knew that.

'After all, I knew that when I was your age.'

'You're exactly like I was.'

One doesn't necessarily... have to fire it

to appreciate it's beauty.

[clacks]

And you really don't mind?

No. I don't mind at all.

Through you I can satisfy Evelyn again.

I can give her the love she deserves to receive.

So, you'll stay?

Good.

Oh, well, would you, uh, mind putting this back for me?

I'm afraid I can't reach.

[wheelchair squeaking]

[dramatic music]

[sighs] You really are magnificent

[chuckles] No, you're magnificent.

That Victor's one lucky guy.

Mmm.

You know, in so many ways you're..

so much like him before the accident.

It's a strange feeling.

It's almost like I'm falling in love with him again.

[chuckles] Yeah, that's kind of strange.

[sighs] Well, it's late.

I've got a thousand things to do.

You'll still be here when I get back, won't you

Yeah.. be right here.

Okay.

[sighs]

I could get used to this.

I'm impressed.

You got through the front door and the bedroom door.

What next?

You know, I get the feeling you don't like me.

You're a fool.

Why don't you pack it in and go home?

No, thanks.

I think I'll stick around a while.

You don't get it, do you?

Victor's made it safe for you.

And you're a guy who likes danger.

How much longer do you think this is gonna work for you

What are you getting at?

Evelyn's a lady. She's got breeding.

She's not like you and me.

She's already fallen in love with you.

You need someone who wouldn't dare fall in love with you.

Someone who could do this.

[instrumental music]

and walk out.

[music continues]

He told you?

[sobbing] Of course he told me.

He loves me.

Look, I'm sorry, okay?

You'll be sorry.

Come on, it's not even loaded, Evelyn.

Oh, no.

Come on, Evelyn, I said I'm sorry.

Just like you said it, what.. A thousand times before?

Evelyn, please.

Mine is the last heart

you'll ever break.

[gunshot]

[sighs]

[clinking]

Oh, ho-hold it. Let's talk about this.

[laughs] Take it.

Go on.. take it.

Now, tell me.

Tell you what?

Tell me what comes off first.

[chuckles] What are you nuts?

Come on, Turk, you're so much like Victor.

I thought it'd be fun.

Now, tell me.

Come on, play.

Victor usually has me take my stockings off first.

Look, can we just do it.. Normally?

No. Play the game.

Is this gun loaded or not?

Course not.

Alright. Take off your stocking.

Don't you want me to take my shoe off first?

Yeah, yeah, take 'em, take 'em both off.

[instrumental music]

Now, take the other one off.

Now, take off your top.

I said take off your damn top.

That's it. Get into it.

Just... just take it off.

Good. Now, make<ro

No, this is stupid, I can't do this.

If you don't play, you get nothing.

I don't like games.

But I do.

So play it for me.

Please.

Take it off.

Take it off or I'll shoot.

- No. - Take it off!

No!

[Evelyn groans]

Turk, what've you done?

The gun, I-I... I didn't know it was loaded. It was an accident.

Well, I have to call the police.

No, they'd never believe me, I..

- I gotta get outta here. - You'll never get away.

Victor finds the body, he calls the police

they catch you, then you'll look really guilty.

What the hell am I gonna do?

First thing is hide the body.

Do you want to leave her here for Victor to find?

Come on. We'll hide her in here.

You know, I bet it was Victor.

He's one shrewd son of a bitch.

What the hell are you talking about?

Let me show you something.

Victor loaded the gun.

No, you crazy?

He loved Evelyn. Why would he want her dead

Because of you. You drove him over the edge.

No, wait. Victor wanted me here.

Victor liked to watch. He was using you.

Sitting here watching you make love to his wife

something must have snapped. He's still a man.

So, what do we do?

We wipe the slate clean. Then we get out of here.

But I can't shoot Victor.

If you don't, he'll call the police

or he'll kill you himself. He hasn't given you a choice.

(Victor) 'Evelyn? Evelyn.'

Push that.

Have you seen Evelyn?

You're not getting away with this.

What are you talking about?

You set me up to shoot your wife.

Shoot my wife? You hurt Evelyn, where is she?

Get off it.

You probably watched the whole thing

you sick, pathetic old man.

What makes you think I did this?

You think I went to the gun case, stood up

took out the gun and loaded it?

There's one thing you know for sure, Turk

it's that I can't walk or move.

Evelyn could have gotten the pistol from the case.

Yes, but, uh, who got the bullets out of the case?

Evelyn? Or Jillian?

You?

Well, if no one else is going to call the police...

Jillian, stop.

You haven't got the guts.

[gunshot]

Bravo.

[dramatic music]

[grunts]

[laughs]

Well, ahem.

Well done, Turk, a magnificent performance. Mmm!

We couldn't have written better.

(male #1) 'I-I'm afraid we've been less than honest with you, Turk.'

My-my name is Colin.

My friends and I have been having a little fun with you.

You mean, uh, none of this stuff is real?

No, no, it.. No, i-it was all play-acting.

Just a... harmless little psycho drama.

[Turk chuckles]

[laughs] It's a, it's a joke?

Well, not all of it.

Oh, no, no, i-it wasn't a joke. W-w-would you call life a joke?

This was theater.

See, we cast you in the role of the ladies man.

(Colin) 'Huh? I mean, isn't that how you've cast yourself?'

I'm sorry it's over.

Me too.

Yeah, well, actually, i-it's not quite over yet.

See, we have one last point to make.

- Point? - 'Uh.'

(Colin) Well, yes, this is, after all, a morality play.

Yes.

The man who lives by his spike..

shall perish by the spike.

[Turk screams]

[instrumental music]

Mmm!

Mm, would you like another espresso

mypetit chou?

Yeah. Thanks, doll.

[chuckles]

[clears throat] Madame and monsieur

the milkman is here.

Oh, milkman.

- Mm-mm. - Yes.

A perfectn'est ce pas?

[laughs] Show him in.

(Freddy) 'Hey, babe, I, uh'

'I think we should talk.'

'I mean, here you are'

'you're new in town.'

'Here I am, a native.'

[clicking]

I could show you around.

[chuckles] I love love games.

[instrumental music]

[theme music]

[music continues]
