Mirrors Page #2

Synopsis: In New York, the former NYPD detective Ben Carson is hired to work as night watch of the remains of the Mayflower Department Store that was partially destroyed by fire many years ago. Ben became alcoholic and was retired from the police force after killing a man in a shooting. His marriage was also destroyed and now he is living in the apartment of his younger sister Angie.

When he goes to the rounds in his first night, he finds that the mirrors are impeccably clean and his colleague explains that the former night watch was obsessed with the mirrors. After a couple of nights, Ben sees weird images in the mirrors, but due to the lack of credibility of his past, his ex-wife Amy believes he has hallucinations as a side effect of his medication.

I'm fine. I feel a lot better.

I'm leaving in a couple of minutes.

Are you sure you're all right?

Please, not you.

Okay. I'm just saying,

you can talk to me if you want.

I'm your little sister.

It's that new job, isn't it?

Yeah, well, I need that new job.

I can't take care of Amy and the kids

and myself on my pension.

I'm not gonna sleep on your couch

for the rest of my life.

Okay, well, maybe you get a daytime job,

a regular job.

It's not that simple.

Well, you should think about it.

Ben! What happened?

Just leave me alone.

Please, just leave me alone!

Angie, get out of here! Now!

What is happening to you, Ben?

Pull yourself together.

Help!

Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my...

No!

"Gary Lewis."

Esseker.

Esseker.

Hello?

Hello?

Where are you?

I want to help you,

but I need to know where you are!

Damn it!

I'm coming!

Anybody here?

Is anybody in here?

F*** this place.

Mom! Mom! Mom!

- Mom! Mom!

- Michael?

Are you okay? What's happening?

Michael. What's the matter, sweetie?

- There's a lady screaming.

- Where?

- There, in the mirror.

- In the mirror?

I don't see anybody

but you and I in the mirror.

- You just had a nightmare, sweetie.

- Okay.

Sometimes they can feel really real,

but they're not, all right?

- Okay.

- Okay, let's go back to sleep.

Come on. In you go.

I'm right around the corner, all right?

- Love you.

- I love you, too, sweetie.

- Can you leave the door open?

- Sure, sweetheart.

- But you go back to sleep, okay?

- All right, Mom.

...not clear how it happened.

The 42-year-old is expected to go

on trial this month for allegedly

sexually assaulting a former co-worker

in her apartment

for 13 hours on Halloween night in 2005.

Braunstein's lawyer says his client

was mentally ill at the time.

The Feds say they'll seek the death

penalty against a former mob boss

accused of ordering a hit on a rival.

The trial of Vincent "Vinny Gorgeous"...

I swear to you,

I could feel my flesh burning.

I couldn't breathe.

It was like my lungs were full of smoke.

It was like a nightmare, but I was awake.

I know I was awake.

- You think I'm crazy, don't you?

- I don't know what to think.

I think you're just going through

a hard time in your life.

You're under a lot of stress.

You've been having those nightmares

since the shooting.

- You know it wasn't your fault.

- They're everywhere.

- What are you talking about?

- The f***ing mirrors, they are everywhere,

in the department store,

on the corner of every street,

in the window of every building

in this city.

I feel...

I feel like I'm not the one

looking into the mirrors

but they're looking back at me.
