Ask Dr. Death.

- 90 degrees.

- What's going on?

Nothing. Bringing Rachel back early.

That's all.

- That's all?

- Don't start now! Think about Rachel.

Joe's right. 91 degrees.

Let's be ready.

I told you not to go in there!

I told you not to do that!

It's your fault!

- Nothing!

- Take me up to 300.

- You're hot.

- Clear.

- Come on, Rachel.

- Not a thing. 2:05.

- You're hot.

- Come on, Rachel.

- Got her!

- You don't have her!

- It's okay, we'll get her.

- Step me up to 360. Clear.

What the hell is going on?

What'd you do to me? I had her.

A fuse. Short.

Maybe a circuit.

- Joe, you charged the battery, right?

- Sh*t!

Starting CPR.

Bag her.

- 3-1,000. 4-1,000. 5-1,000. Breathe.

- No pulse.

Begin. 1-1,000.

- This is not working. Joe, take over.

- I got her.

She's been under four minutes.

We're moving to Bretylium.

It's the only way.

- It's our last chance.

- Don't. You will fry her.

Please don't.

You bring her back.

Come on.

Lidocaine in.

Come on, Manus.

Come on back to us.

I got something.

I hear something.

O2. O2.

She's back.

- Why did you stop us?

- Something strange happened on the EI.

- That's why you stopped us?

- There was this girl. Winnie Hicks.

I was in elementary school with her.

We used to make fun of her.

I was on the train.

I heard someone call me names.

I turned, I swear to God,

and she was standing in front of me.

- Still only 10 years old.

- Maybe it was an hallucination.

Maybe you fell asleep,

thoughts triggered by submerged guilt.

I was not asleep.

I've seen odd things from my past, too.

I thought it might be brain damage.

In your case, it probably is.

I'm getting this on tape.

- Shut that off. This is personal.

- Go ahead, Joe.

I've been haunted by images of women

I videotaped without them knowing.

They're all members

of the Joe Hurley video library.

What?

What about you, Nelson?

Who's come looking for you?

I think his name's Billy Mahoney,

an eight-year-old kid we picked on.

- It was no big deal.

- No big deal, huh?

Then tell us what happened

to your face.

Sometimes the little fella

gets carried away.

Wait a minute. Wait.

I can understand...

Dave nodding off and pervert here

having flashbacks.

This guy physically touches you? It is

not hallucination and is not possible.

This whole lab's not possible.

Or is it?

- This is too weird.

- Weird? We've experienced death.

Somehow we brought our sins

back physically, and they're pissed.

When did you know about this?

I had my suspicions after Joe went.

- Before we went? You didn't say a word!

- That was wrong.

I thought we were doctors, scientists.

You call yourself a scientist?
