Juvenile delinquency,

periodically institutionalized...

some violent episodes.

No criminal charges,

and he's been in my care...

- What the hell have you done?

- Nothing!

In there! They need help!

What's he saying?

He's not making a whole lot of sense.

Something about a

place called "Midian."

He's dying. I think he wants to die.

Inspector, I know Boone.

I know how he talks,

I know how he manipulates.

Now, maybe if the right

words are said to this man,

they'll trigger something.

Go ahead.

I'll do what I can...

but I'll have to have privacy.

Move and I'll slit your throat!

- You've got him?

- I've got him.

Holy sh*t!

Are you from Midian?

- We should take him below, Peloquin.

- He's not Nightbreed.

- He's natural.

- No, I've killed people!

I-I'm like you. That's why I'm here.

Shut the f*** up. You're meat.

If we eat him we break the law!

That's true.

Everything's true.

God's an astronaut.

Oz is over the rainbow.

And Midian is where

the monsters live.

And you came to die.

I didn't come to die.

I came to be with you.

No. Sorry.

I can smell innocence...

From 50 yards.

I've killed people.

I've killed 15 people!

- Who told you that?

- What do you mean?

He lied, a**hole!

You're natural.

That means...

you're meat...

for the beast.

We mustn't! It's the law!

F*** the law.

I want meat.

Let him go!

Peloquin, no!

He's meat. He's meat!

That way. The gate's that way!

Run while you've still got legs!

He's gone! Enough!

What?

Something... natural.

Freeze! Aaron Boone,

you're under arrest!

Boone, listen to him. It's no use.

Stay back!

Inspector, I know how to talk to him.

Boone, it's gonna be OK.

They know everything now.

I've explained everything to them.

They're not gonna hurt you.

I didn't do it. I didn't hurt anyone!

- Of course you didn't.

- Then you believe me?

I believe you.

He's got a gun!

No! Hold your fire!

I said hold your goddamn fire!

Where's the gun?

He reached into his jacket.

Ms. Winston, can you identify

this as the body of Aaron Boone?

You know, you meant

the world to Aaron.

He used to talk about

you all the time.

He talked a lot about you, too.

We don't have to do this

right now, Ms. Winston.

No, I'd really rather

just get it over with.

What was your relationship

with the deceased?

We were lovers.

Deceased is male,

white caucasian, late-20s.

Possible cause of death multiple gunshot

wounds to thoracic cavity and extremities.

Unspecified animal bite adjacent

bullet wound on upper left shoulder.

Bullet wound number one,

upper left shoulder.

Second bullet wound

above left nipple.

Third bullet wound below

costal margin, to the left.

Jesus, they weren't
