White Noise 2: The Light

Synopsis: The family man Abe Dale is having lunch with his wife and son in a restaurant, when a man kills them in front of Abe and shoots himself in the mouth. A couple of days later, the grieving Abe misses his family and commits suicide ingesting many pills at home, but is rescued by his friend Marty Bloom and saved by the doctors. His Near Death Experience makes him see white light in some people and to hear Electronic Voice Phenomena, i.e., manifestations of voices of ghosts or spirits through static on electronic devices. Soon he discovers that the white light means that the person is going to die, and Abe saves three lives including his nurse Sherry Clarke. While watching a video recorded by his son, Abe finds that the killer had saved the lives of his wife and son three days before the murder. He investigates the incident and finds that when you save, you must kill; otherwise many innocents will die three days later.

You'll like this. I guarantee it.

Yes!

Oh, Abe, I love this.

Well, you loved it

when you picked it out.

- OK, open yours.

- I will.

- Did you know?

- No.

- He didn't tell you?

- No! I swear to God.

Like father, like son.

The two of you are from the same mould.

Happy anniversary.

Happy anniversary.

Are you OK?

- You were tossing and turning all night.

- I know. I don't know what this is.

Come on. Let's go get some breakfast.

- Danny, are you hungry?

- Yeah, sure.

Come on. Let's get something to eat.

Danny, if you're gonna

play with your food,

at least you've gotta have fun doing it.

There. How's that?

- Are you OK, buddy?

- I don't feel so good.

Honey, are you all right?

Come on, let's get out of here.

Can I get some help over here?

Just relax. Sit down.

Here, let me help.

I'm so sorry.

It's the whys that are killing me.

Why were we in that restaurant

on that day at that hour?

Why did that lunatic get it into his head

to kill my wife and my son?

Why not kill me, too?

I mean, he leaves me behind?

Why?

It's just so...

random.

Nice job.

I'm the king.

Here, Dad's gonna catch you.

- You better throw far.

- Don't kill me.

What could go wrong?

Careful.

I see you.

My dad taught me to swim.

Would you consider Dad

tall or short? Very short?

We short people have thick skin cos

it doesn't get stretched over a tall frame.

The reason my wife and son

were murdered...

was because of me.

Because I wasn't able to help them

when they needed me most.

Happy anniversary.

I should've saved them.

I should've saved them.

Slow motion.

Yes!

The winner. The winner!

I know this is upsetting,

but I have to be with my wife and son.

Goodbye.

Christ, Abe, don't do anything

foolish, all right? I'm coming right over.

- Is this our OD?

- Yeah.

- You know how many of these he took?

- I don't know, man.

Get him on an lV.

Start him on normal saline.

Pulse rate 47 and dropping.

- Putting a line in.

- He's crashing.

Give him atropine. Saline wide open.

- Give him the full amp.

- We're losing him.

- Asystole.

- Checking respirations.

Starting CPR. Come on.

- He's dying.

- Come on.

- He's still in V-fib.

- No pulse.

- Did you give him the full amp?

- Yes. He's not responding.

Come back to us. Continue compressions.

No response. Do you wanna call it?

Could be fine V-fib. Give me the paddles.

Charge to 200.

Charged to 200.

Clear.

- 300.

- 300.

Clear.

- 360.

- 360.

Clear.

- We've got a sinus rhythm.

- Pressure's climbing.

We're getting a response.

It's OK. We brought you back.

Check his oxygen saturation.

Oxygen saturation is good.

Blood pressure is 140 over 60.

Hi. You're awake.

I'm Sherry Clarke.

You're in Saint Elizabeth's lCU.

- Are you my doctor?

- Better. I'm your nurse.

The light hurts my eyes.

- How long have I been here?

- A couple of days.

Dr Karras has been keeping an eye

on you. You're his latest project.

Do you wanna watch some TV?

- Anything in particular?

- No.

Oh, dude, you lucked out.

This is my favourite movie of all time.

We belong dead.

Hello, Abe. I'm Dr Karras.

I'm just gonna have a little look.

- Are you OK?

- I've been better.

Remember why you're here?

You were legally dead, but, lucky for you,

modern medicine knows no limits.

- I died?

- Technically speaking. You had an NDE.

- I don't know what that is.

- Near-death experience.

It's my field of expertise. I fought to make

sure you were my patient. Let me guess.

You saw a white light that engulfed you,

almost seemed to beckon you to stay.

Yeah, that's exact...

How did you know that?

As many as eight out of ten people who've

had an NDE report seeing a white light.

- Freaky, huh?

- What about the light I'm seeing now?

- It's probably an aura, a type of residue.

- So it's normal?

I'd say we're well beyond

the bounds of normal here, but yes.

You'll see 'em less frequently as time

passes and eventually they'll disappear.

She's with us.

She's with us.

She's with us.

So everything looks fine.

No masses, no deviations

in your intracranial space.

But I've seen it three times

in the past few days.

- Seen what?

- The white light.

And there's something else.

You're gonna think I'm crazy, but, um...

I'm seeing and hearing

all kinds of electrical stuff.

EVP stands for

electronic voice phenomena.

Precognition, the light you're seeing,

all that is part of supernatural white noise.

- I've got a grant to study these things.

- So EVP, what exactly is it?

It's the recording of the deceased using

a detuned apparatus like a TV or radio.

Some people believe that EVP

is the afterlife manifest all around us.

Others think it's a charge

or electromagnetic fields,

still others that it's a means through

which the dead can communicate with us.

Frankly, who knows? As long as

we're not exactly sure what it is,

they'll keep funding my grant.

What are you doing down here?

This... is my EVP room.

These have been detuned and I record 'em

to see if I've captured any transmissions.

I suppose that's an important part

of your work, then?

That? Oh.

No, I didn't want to detune that one.

That's Change of Habit.

I'm recording it for research purposes.

I thought I might learn something

from Dr Presley.

- You're not a fan of this one?

- No, it's just...

I just saw one of those things

on the screen.
