Darkness Falls Page #4

...well, psychotic.

Ray's dead.

He's dead?

I think you had something

to do with it.

I didn't kill him. I didn't do this.

No, it must have been....

I don't know.

He hasn't been the same

since his mom's murder.

He's not a killer.

How do you know?

You haven't seen him in 1 2 years.

Because l know. He's a good man.

-He's been a ward of the state.

-But he came to help Michael.

He was in a mental hospital

for nine years.

Caitlin, he's a dangerous guy.

I had a file sent over from State

Hospital about you. Ten feet long.

You spent a lot of time there. MaJor

disassociative syndrome, night terrors...

...sociopathic tendencies,

three suicide attempts.

I didn't do this.

You did it, Kyle. Don't turn away.

You killed your mother

and you killed Ray. Didn't you?

I need to call my lawyer.

-I don't believe this. I'm going.

-Caitlin, l'll be in touch.

Caitlin.

I have to get back to Michael

at the hospital.

Matt.

Keep working on your crap story.

Hope you got a good lawyer.

I can handle this.

I can handle this.

I can handle this.

Black cat.

Why not?

Michael!

Michael!

Michael, open the door! Michael!

-I'll call security.

-Michael? Can you hear me?

It's okay.

-She's gonna get me.

-It's okay.

Your brother is suffering from a form

of Pavor Nocturnus, or night terrors.

Because of his lack of sleep,

he's suffered a psychotic break.

Once that occurs, the subJect can't

discern what is real and what is not.

-They begin to manifest a response.

-How do you mean?

A patient may hurt themselves because

they believe what they dream is real.

Michael feels that something

is after him, wanting to kill him.

And his self-inflicted wounds

are consistent with this fantasy.

The good news is that there is

a procedure we can perform...

...right here, which has had an

overwhelming success rate.

-Is it surgical?

-No, not at all.

Michael is placed in a sensory

deprivation chamber.

He faces his fears and realizes

there's nothing to fear.

Tests.

-Michael hates the dark.

-Yeah.

That's the point.

Is there any other alternative?

Aggressive medication

coupled with counseling.

There are no guarantees. Meanwhile,

Michael might hurt himself again.

Ray and l were Just sitting there,

having drinks...

...and Walsh starts fighting

with Ray....

-Where are my flashlights?

-Lab's not done with them.

That's all you remember?

The words you're looking for

are "thank you."

Hey, Kyle! Kyle, wait up!

I'm having a bad day, Kyle.

I had a dead guy fall on me.

You want to tell me where

you're going, huh? Kyle?

-How about a pistola? Huh?

-No.

Wait here a minute.

-Okay, now what?

-Where's your car?

-Why?

-I need a ride. Now!
