Passion Fish

It's all so strange.

All I remember is that

I wasn't happy...

was I?

- Scarlet...

- You keep calling me that.

It sounds like

some other person.

Isn't there anything

that you can remember?

There is something.

It's moRe like a dream

than anything that really happened.

I'm walking down a hallway.

It's dark...

and it's so quiet

I can hear my footsteps echoing.

The hallway is very long.

It seems never to end.

While I'm walking, I have this feeling

that when I reach the end of the hall...

I'll find something.

It's very frightening at first...

but if I can stand up to it and face it,

it could be something wonderful.

- But I can't remember my dreams.

- That's my close-up.

Maybe I just don't want to.

He gave her my fucking close-up.

Is something wrong?

I thought that was

the call button.

Do you know where you are?

Yeah.

I'm in the tucking hospital.

- I was here yesterday, wasn't I?

- You've been here tor a while.

My legs tell asleep.

I wanted to get up.

Do you know who you are?

she's the one with the amnesia.

Not me.

ust help me sit up, all right?

You had surgery yesterday.

We put the rods on your spine.

Do you remember?

I'm going to call Dr. Miles. He'll

give you something to calm you down.

No, I don't need to be calmed down.

I need to be helped up.

You did something to me,

didn't you?

You gave me a shot

and my legs went to sleep.

- I'm going to call Dr. Miles.

- No!

just give me a straight tuckin' answer!

What did you do to me?

I think he's on the floor.

I'll get Dr. Miles. He'll give

you something to calm you down.

No. What happened to my legs?

Sometimes the medication

makes it hard to remember.

What am I doing here?

What is wrong with me?

Scarlet, it's good to see you

out of the hospital.

Scarlet, it's good to see you

out of the hospital.

- How are you feeling?

- Fine, DR. Buckner.

Try to hold your position

without using your arms too much.

Now turn your head to the lett,

very slowly.

I'm right here.

I'm not gonna let you drown.

I knew there was a catch.

Look at Carlos. He's doin' ten reps

already with weights on his shoulders.

Carlos is a tucking monster.

Carlos belongs in a circus.

You're just as good a candidate

tor rehab as he is.

Right. Can you take me

back to my room now?

- No.

- My shoulders hurt.

Are you gonna make me stay here?

Go back to your room if you want.

You know the way.

It you had some upper body strength,

you wouldn't have any trouble with that.

F*ck you!

F*ck you too, Carlos!

- Who are you?

- I'm Dr. Kline.

- A shrinK.

- I'm a psychologlst.

- You've got the voice.

- Do I?

I was under analysis

tor seven years.

I see. I'm going to ask you

some Questions about yourselt.

You gonna make me walk?

No, May-Alice.

You gonna make it so I can pee

without sticking plastic inside me?

I'm not a urologist.

Then go peddle it somewhere else.

Okay, I want you to raise

yourselves up on your elbows.

That's it. Not too much

side to side with the head.

Now push your body back to where your

elbows are underneath your shoulders.

That'll give you the leverage.

Hey, that's really good, Chuck.

I want you to roLI to the leFt...

ReALly slowly now,

under coNtrol.

Go right to the supine elbows position.

use your momentum.

Don't lie back.

From the elbows we extend the arms,

keeping balance.

Walk it up to a sitting position.

Wondertul.

Okay, leaning torward, those of you

with your legs still crossed...

I just want out

of this fucking boot camp.

It's like a fraternity here: all

these gang membeRs shot in holdups...

motorcycle casualties,
