Very smart.

Are you sure you're okay?

Yes. That I will do.

- Okay. See you at home.

- Okay.

What do you want?

- I wonder if I can ask if ...

- Who is it?

Let me fix it.

- Can we talk about ...

- Come in.

Hi, I have received more information.

20 people died in the same week

in October 2010.

But I do not know if it is of

ergot poisoning or something else.

I need more time

to piece this together.

I have been informed that some thing

will happen in a few weeks.

- You only have a few days time.

- You get the article soon.

- I'm sending Sam if needed.

- No, I can handle myself.

- I tell if I need help.

- The item will be ready on the 29th

I know that. Goodbye.

Are you sure you're okay?

Yes. That I will do.

- Okay. See you at home.

- Okay.

Why did you choose this location

to your script?

I wanted a good story to film.

I read an article about a city

which is completely self-sufficient.

They are shielded

from the rest of the world.

The film will be about a society where

residents turn against each other.

They have their own government.

They believe neither in sex, marriage

or to have children.

Neither sex or marriage?

- They probably died out.

- Bingo.

There is certainly some

who practice it.

I want to do thorough research-

And write a really good script.

Then maybe I can get back

my apartment.

Apartment as your girlfriend

threw you out?

Yes, that's right.

- What happened between you and your girl?

- She does not understand my job.

She wants to

I provide "a real job".

She wants me to be something I'm

not. She sees me as a loser.

She does not support me.

I want to show that she's wrong.

The only thing you need to prove anything to

is yourself.

Greg?

This is Greg. Leave a message

I will call.

Greg, it's Rachel.

I was just wondering where you are.

Call as soon as you get this. Goodbye.

The first thing to look into is that it

has been more than an outbreak here.

There have been both small and large

outbreaks. It has been going on for years.

She's in there.

WE should get her now,

before it becomes dangerous.

- What do you know about ergot poisoning?

- I know quite a lot about it.

I grew up in a town near Salem.

In school, we learned much

the witch trials.

We talked about that ergot may have

poisoned grains and arable land.

And that the poisoning was the villagers

to believe that they were possessed.

I became interested and have read

many books and done research.

My essay was about it.

When I graduated in

School of Journalism, I read-

-About a city in western Massachusetts

who had many outbreaks for years.

You have reached the right place.

I'm obviously not here
