Ceresia (2015) - full transcript

Having suffered with psychosis for twenty years, Eddie is on advanced trials for a new drug called Ceresia. Near FDA approval, his progress breaks down as a new romance begins to invoke memories of his mother's fatal accident.

[silence]

- [Voiceover] If you are being
medicated for depression,

anxiety, psychosis, or any
mental illness

and taking medications to manage
symptoms

of deadness, malaise, or
inability to feel affection

and to find love,

there is now a miracle waiting
for you.

Ceresia is a groundbreaking new
medicine

being used to treat chemical
imbalances

from emotional conflicts
buried deep in the psyche.

The things that other drugs
are trying to cover up.



Ceresia works in the memory
itself.

At the source of your issues,

regulating the hormonal
flux of your emotions

and clearing new pathways in
your brain

as you re-experience life in
perspective.

If you feel you aren't
fulfilling your need to live,

a life of true potential,
joy, and purpose,

Ceresia may be the answer.

Ask your doctor about Ceresia
today.

Side effects may include
sleeplessness,

unusual dreams, catatonia,
sexual dysfunction,

headaches, nausea, irritability,
aggressive behavior,

and thoughts of suicide.

Do not take Ceresia...

[ambient instrumental music]

- Hey.

Oh shit, ow.

Ah god.

- Are you okay?

- I think so.

- Uh, you're bleeding.

- Yeah.

Straight from my heart.

- I'm a nurse, let me at least
bandage this up or something.

Okay?

- Okay.

- You might need stitches.

- Oh, it's just a scratch.

- Yeah, but it could get
infected or something.

You should probably go to
a clinic or a hospital.

- I'm okay, thank you.

- New York rugged hipster type,
huh?

- Alright, fine.

I'll go to see a doctor. -
[Woman] Thank you.

- I'm Eddie, by the way.

- [Woman] Oh.

- What's your name? - I'm Leila.

- [Eddie] Leila.

- Were you following me?

- No.

I'm sorry, you reminded
me of someone but...

From a long time ago.

- [Voiceover] Yeah?

- Yeah, sorry.

- Well, um.

I should probably go.

- Sure.

Well, thank you for your help
and...

Listen.

Do you think I could call you?

- Uh huh.

Okay, good.

- Ahhh.

Ahhhhh.

- Breathe in.

And blow out fast.

140 over 90.

You're just nervous.

But everything else is okay,
right?

Nothing crazy happening
you want to tell me about?

- [Eddie] Besides the night
sweats

and delusions you mean?

- I'm serious.

- I'm fine, perfectly normal
Doc.

- You sure Edward?

We are very close to getting
what we need for approval.

- I had my doubts about
this whole trial thing

but I have to admit I
feel pretty damn good.

I mean just feeling again is
good.

It's weird.

But it's good.

- Fantastic.

Just two more weeks
and with these reports,

and the drug will undoubtedly
be approved by the FDA.

You have been such a good
patient.

And I know the Euphorus
lab really appreciates

your willingness to take part in
this

truly groundbreaking trial.

For me, I'm just happy it's
working.

- Thanks.

So, when do I get paid?

[laughing]

- Two more weeks.

After that, you'll have a
lifetime prescription of Ceresia

and can eliminate all the
other drugs you're on.

And we'll get you paid.

- Alright.

- Are you heading out to your
beach house this weekend?

- Yeah, probably.

- Cool, I'm going out there
myself.

Late season sailing lesson.

Since I'll be out there,

you call me if you need anything
alright?

- Alright.

Sounds good Doc, have fun.

- Thanks buddy.

- Hi.

Yeah, okay good.

I have to go now Jerry, my
sister's here. Okay?

Thanks.

Ciao love, bye.

Hi.

- God, it's so beautiful up
here.- Yeah.

So tell me, how was your
first day in the big bad city?

- It was good.

- [Brown Haired Woman] Good.

- Yeah, thanks for lending
me your bike, Paula. You can see
so much of the city
that way.

- Yeah, Travis got that
for me a while ago.

I never ride in the
city, it's too dangerous.

- It was fun.

- [Paula] Good.

- [Leila] How was your day?

- Not bad.

I don't love doing the drug ads,

but the money is too good to
pass up, so.

- Well you gotta keep
those reps buys peddling.

- That's right.

I'm so glad you're here.

This is the best thing for you,

you're going to have so much
fun.

Oh, honey.

You're gonna be just fine.

You did the right thing moving
here.

We're gonna take good care of
you

and you can stay here as
long as you want, okay? Travis
is gonna set you up.

What's that about?

[laughing]

- Nothing.

- Mhm.

Okay, what's his name?

Come on.

♪ Everything changed

♪ Everything changed, I
knew this day would come

♪ What's worrying worth

♪ It's hard to give up anger

♪ I wish I was in love

♪ And I couldn't speak to
sadness before

♪ But I can now, please no more

♪ I think I've seen enough ♪

- Did you have a nice day
sweetheart?

- Huh?

- You go first.

- Well.

There's not much to tell about
me.

- Where are you from?

- I'm from Long Island.

- Mm, Long Island.

That's a pretty big place, no?

- Yeah, it's pretty long.

[laughing]

Anyway, what about you?

- Well, I was born in Oaxaca in
Mexico.

- Oaxaca is on the Pacific,
right?

- Yeah, yeah.

Have you been?

- No.

- [Leila] Well it's so beautiful
there.

- You go back?

- No, not very much.

Basically just been in L.A.

and now I'm a city girl.

- Yeah, how long have you
actually been in New York?

- I just got here yesterday.

- Mm, no way.

- [Leila] Yeah.

- Really?

- [Leila] Yup. - Oh my god.
- [Leila] Yup.- So how do you
like it?

- So far, so good.

- Can you excuse me a sec?

[strange ambient music]

[baby crying]

- [Voiceover] Eddie.

[wind chimes clanging together]

[inaudible whispering]

- Sorry.

- So, do you live around here?

- Ever since I was seven.

But I go back and forth
between here and the beach.

I'm in the city during the week

working with a...

For a laboratory.

Studying...

- You're like a scientist or
something?

- I'd like to be?

For an artist, maybe.

- Artist?

Wow.

- I draw a lot.

Anyway, yeah my place
is just a couple blocks.

- I would love to see some of
your work.

- Sure.

- So, you have any good stories?

- This might be the best one I
ever had.

[laughing]

So can you tell me something?

- Yeah?

- How is it that somebody hasn't

swept you off your feet yet?

You're just perfect to me.

- Well, um.

I was with somebody.

- Oh yeah?

- Yeah.

Yeah, I was married for seven
years.

- It's over now?

- Yeah.

Yeah.

- What's wrong sweetie?

- This is the wrong life.

- You're gonna feel so much
better

once this is finalized.

Trust me.

- Totally.

- I feel ashamed.

- He should too.

- And now this guy I just met is

asking me to go away
with him to his house.

- What, where?

- I don't know, it's on Long
Island

by The Hamptons or something.

- Maybe you should go.

- Really?

- [Paula] Yeah.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa whoa
whoa there horsies. Listen to
what you're saying
here.

Alright look, Leila.

I know that you've had
a hell of a few months

but I don't know if
running away with some guy

having a one night stand

and then going up to some beach
house

this fast is the best idea right
now.

- [Paula] Travis, rude.

- No, no he's probably right.

- Or grandpa, she can
grab life by the horns

and have the best time ever.

Wash some of the blues away.

This could be the best
thing to happen to you. - Yeah,
or this guy could
be a complete psychopath

or just want another roll in the
hay.

- [Paula] Well, they
already slept together Trav,

so I mean...

- Yeah, and it was a pretty good
night. - Oh.

[laughing]

- I could use another
good roll in the hay.- Maybe we
can meet him.

- [Travis] Babe, please.

- Tell her, we were fast and
foolish when we first met. We
knew each other a week

and we went off to Hawaii for
the weekend

and it was passionate, and
amazing.

- [Travis] This is not the time.

- Okay, well it was the
best week of my life, so.- Well,
I wouldn't mind
laying out in the sun

for a few days.

- Yeah, and have some good sex.
What is wrong with some good
sex?

You should follow through with
this.

- Nobody is getting swept away

to some deserted island
unless I feel right about it, is
that clear?

- It's Long Island, Travis.
He's so dramatic.

- Oh yeah, I'm the dramatic one.

Hey Leila, how do you like
your steak nice and bloody?

[calming instrumental music]

So tell me about this beach
house.

It sounds pretty remote, huh?

- Ah, yeah.

It's about a couple of hours
away.

Just south of The Hamptons,
actually.

I basically grew up there
in the summers as a kid.

My family has had it for years.

My mother left it to me when she
died.

- Oh god, I'm sorry to hear
that.

Still, beach house growing up

sure beats my youth in
Cincinnati for christ's sake.

You know, I would like to
have something like that

for our kids to enjoy some
day, what do you think?

Honey?

- Well, I mean you're welcome to
come out

whenever you like.

- Well tell us more about this
place.

- It's nice there, fairly low
key.

Beautiful sunsets.

I think you'd really like it.

- What happened to your parents?

- Honey, I don't think we need
to...

- Oh no, it's okay.

They died when I was young.

And so I was moved by my great
uncle

to New York City for boarding
school.

And then I got the house

when I was eighteen.

- Excuse me for just one moment.

- I'll be right back.

- She has an irritable bowel.

[vomiting and dry heaving]

- [Leila] Are you okay?

- He seems nice.

- He is nice.

- I don't know, I just...

I feel, I don't think
you should go with him.

I feel very uneasy.

- You're the one that
started this whole thing.

- I am so sorry but my
stomach is in knots.

He seems very sweet but
I feel very strange.

- It was amazing, it was
really quite incredible.

- We should probably get going.

Right?

- Yeah, sorry it's a bit
of a drive and all that but
thank you so much for
having me for breakfast.

And like I said you're welcome
to come out

whenever you like.

- Ah, thanks man.

Is she alright?

Okay.

Listen, can I get a number

in case we need to get ahold of
you two?

- I gave Paula his number.

- Oh okay, great.

Well here is my card so...

- Great.

Great, so nice to meet you.

- Oh, our pleasure.

Call if you need anything

and she is our guest so I only
ask

that you take good care of her
for me.

Sound good?

- Yup.

Okay.

- Okay, I'm gonna...

Have fun you two.

- Ready?

- Mhm.

- Hey, you okay?

- Did she go?

- Yeah, seemed like a
pretty cool guy to me.

We're gonna have a baby?

[laughing]

- Did we just make a huge
mistake?

[alternative indie music]

- Too fast.

I just can't wait for
you to see the coast,

you're gonna love it, I promise.

♪ If I could see you ♪

Can I ask you a personal
question?

- [Leila] Sure.

- Do you still believe in love?

I mean after all that you went
through

being married and everything.

- Um.

I don't know.

What do you think about love,
Eddie?

- I've never been in love.

I thought the maid was gonna

- Who is she?

- That's my mother.

- Oh, she's beautiful.

Wow.

It's amazing.

- [Eddie] I knew you'd like it.

- I do.

- I know we just met and
everything,

but I feel...

I've never been good with
feelings.

- Hey, don't worry.

I'm glad I came.

A nice relaxing weekend
is exactly what I need.

- Will you leave the guy
alone for christ's sake Paula?

- There's something
going on inside of him,

I'm telling you.

You know I can feel things like
this.

- Mhm.

- Oh my god.

- What?

- It says he killed his mother.

- Oh come on.

- Look.

- Oh god.

Oh god that poor kid,
he was seven years old

and it says here that it was an
accident.

Come on, the media twists this
shit for drama you know that.

Can we just... - Travis.

- Can we just go to bed?

- Travis I'm...
- Now please.

No hormones.

- Fine.

[haunting instrumental music]

[knocking]

- [Leila] Come in.

- Hey.

- [Leila] Hey.

- Got everything you need?

- Eddie, you sure about this?

Why don't we just sleep together
tonight?

- I think maybe we've
been going a little fast.

You know, we should just
get some rest tonight.

- One second.

Hello?

I'm fine, how are you?

It's Paula.

- Oh.

- Yes, Paula relax okay?

Everything is really great here.

Eddie is being the perfect
gentleman.

Uh no, why do you?

Paula can you just please,

can you just drop it and relax,
okay?

Hey.

- Oh hey.

- Sorry about that.

- Paula's checking up on me,
huh?

- Concerned like a mother I
guess.

[laughing]

She's pregnant.

- Really?

- Yeah.

- [Eddie] Wow.

- I know.

- That's great, that's
fantastic.

- I know, I'm so happy.

I guess I'll see you in the
morning.

- Yeah.

- Goodnight.

- Goodnight.

[muffled talking]

- Eddie, Eddie.

Hey wake up.

- Oh thank god you're okay.

- [Leila] I'm okay, are you
okay?

- Yeah.

Yeah I just...

I had a bad dream.

- Then I'm gonna get in with
you.

- Good morning.

- Hey.

What time is it?

- Who cares.

- I haven't slept that
good in a long time.

[laughing]

- Sorry about last night.

Sometimes I just get
really horrible dreams.

- Hey, it's okay.

Everybody has bad dreams.

- [Eddie] Do they?

- Of course they do.

Let's go have some fun.

- Good morning.

I can't find my phone.

- I don't know, I haven't seen
it.

- Was your maid here?

- Maybe your husband came and
took it

for all I know.

- What is wrong with you?

Where did you get this?

- Took them from your cell
phone.

- You shouldn't have taken it.

- You shouldn't have lied.

[knocking]

Um, I was calling your phone
earlier.

Did you hear it anywhere up
here?

- No.

- I'm sorry about earlier, okay?

I didn't mean to see that.

I'm an asshole I'm sorry,

I just want to...

I'm sorry.

- Can I just please have
a minute by myself, okay?

- I'm just gonna go get some
groceries.

Do you want anything?

Do you want to come with me?

I'll be right back, okay?

Leila?

[knocking]

Leila, are you here?

Leila?

Hey beautiful.

How's it going?

- Fine.

- Listen, I'm really sorry about
earlier.

Okay, it wasn't right for me
to be digging around like that.

I ran across it by accident
and I just didn't have the guts

to leave it alone.

It wasn't right and it
was none of my business.

So I'm really sorry.

- You're right, it's not your
business.

- I was angry.

You know, finding out that
you were still married.

It was weird.

- It's just a piece of paper,
Eddie.

- I know, I'm an idiot but...

- That's right, you are an
idiot.

- Listen, I'm gonna make you
an incredible dinner tonight

to make up for it.

Okay?

That sound reasonable?

- Better be good.

- Okay.

Wow.

Nice dress.

Please.

- Thank you.

Wow, I'm impressed.

Where did you learn?

- TV mostly.

- Oh, um.

I still can't find my cell
phone.

Do you have Paula's number?

- I have Travis's card, I think
he put

the home number on it.

- Okay, can I use your phone?

- Right now?

- Well, I want to call
Paula she's been crazy.

Hormones, pregnancy.

- Right, sure of course.

How about after dinner?

- Oh yeah, of course that's
fine.

All of this looks really great,
thank you.

- Good.

Bon appetit.

I hope it's good.

- Mmm.

It's good.

- Okay good.

- It feels so good to be in your
arms.

It's been so long since
I've felt anything.

Or anyone.

- Will you tell me about him?

Your husband?

- It's a long story, Eddie.

Now that it's in the past I
just...

I just want to forget about it.

- Well maybe I can help.

- You do help.

- So...

Tell me about your husband.

- I don't want to talk about it.

- Why not?

I don't understand...

- [Leila] Seriously?

Can we just drop it please?

- I don't get it, I mean...

Are you still in love
with him or something?

I don't understand why...

- [Leila] Are you serious right
now?

- What are you doing?

What are you doing?

- I think that we should
probably just

go home tomorrow, okay?

- Do you want to run
back to your husband now?

Is that what this is...

- Let's just go home tonight,
okay?

I am so done.

- Leila, Leila I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry I
shouldn't have said that okay?

It's late, I'm really tired.

I'm sorry.

Can we just go to sleep?

I'm sorry.

- Fine.

Goodnight.

- What the fuck are you doing?

What the fuck are you doing?

You piece of shit.

You got the perfect girl in your
house,

and you're fucking it up.

Fuck.

[ambient instrumental music]

- [Voiceover] Tomorrow's a brand
new day.

- What the fuck?

- Oh god, you're already awake.

- Eddie what the fuck is this?

Untie me right fucking now!

- I was gonna let you go

as soon as I got back...

[loud screaming]

Be quiet, be quiet, be quiet.

I'm gonna let you go, I'm
gonna let you go okay?

I just...

I didn't want you to leave is
all.

That's it.

- Well, I'm gonna leave right
now. You're fucking sick Eddie.

- [Eddie] Don't say that, come
on...

- Get the fuck outta my way. -
We got a good thing going
here, okay? Just calm down, calm
down okay?

Come on, please.

Come on.

- [Leila] Stay the fuck
away from me Eddie!

- You still love him, I know it.

- Shit.

Why would you go off with a guy

you barely fucking know!

Oh that's really smart Leila.

- Is everything okay in there?

- [Leila] Please give me my
phone.

- If I find it will you
just promise to calm down?

- If you find it you fucking
asshole.

Okay Eddie, I'm calm now.

- Oh hey look I found it,

it was behind the bed.

Hey, I found it.

It was just behind the bed.

You want to come out now?

Hey, I can explain everything.

- Oh my god.

Paula, Paula it's me.

Paula you have to come get me
now.

You have to call the police.

Do you know where I am?

Do you know where it is?

I've been trying.

I think he's having a
psychotic episode or something.
He tied me up.

I don't know, can you just get
the police

to triangulate the phone call
or whatever they do please.

I just...

No, Paula!

- Let me just explain.

- Yes, she's over 18 officer
please.

Why did we let them go?

Why did we let them go out that
doorwithout knowing exactly
where they were going?

- Give me the god damn phone.

- Yes, officer please...

- Give me the phone.

Hey, officer.

24 hours?

No, no, no, no that is
not possible officer. Look, she
might be dead
by then for all we know.

Look, his name is Edward Fallon.

We know he owns a house
south of The Hamptons.

Can't we just send out an APB

or check ownership records or...

I don't have an exact
address, that's the point!

Look, just check the
records for the name Fallon

and help us out here,
how hard is that to do?

You can act on a felony
suspicion right?

So she called, the phone went
dead,

she told us to come pick her up.

Now, we think that something
is very wrong here, can...

Oh my god, I need to speak

to your commanding officer right
now.

Fucking useless...

- If you're gonna kill me Eddie,

why don't you just get on with
it?

- Kill you?

Leila, it's not like that.

I made you something,

would you eat something please?

[knocking]

- Help!

[continual shushing]

[knocking]

- Shh.

Hey Doc, what's up?

I thought we were just gonna
meet...

- Did I just hear someone
scream?

- Yeah, it was my girlfriend

she was singing in the shower.

- Your girlfriend?

- Yeah, my girlfriend's here.

- Right.

Well this is news, Ed.

And I'm sorry to be so direct
but

I thought we talked about you
not getting

emotionally involved with
someone

during these drug trials.

I told you it could have
consequences that are not...

- Yeah well, I mean this
isn't anything emotional Doc,

so you don't have to worry.

Okay, we just hit it off and
she came out with me okay?

So what?

- The hormones, Ed.

She's inside?

- I'm sorry, what do you want
Doc?

- Well, there were changes in
your hormone

and cortisol levels that
showed up on the blood test

that I thought we should talk
about.

- Look, hey.

You're gonna be on the
gravy train soon Doc,

okay so good work, go
have fun sailing alright?

- Well look.

You were under contract,
and I could legally make you

submit to an examination...

- Listen to me, okay?

I have been more than
happy to play lab rat

for the past few months

but this shit can wait, Ethan.

[groaning and grunting]

I think I've been pretty
cooperative

with all the checkups and
the whereabouts and the...

Whatever, I'll see you on Monday
okay?

- Anyway.

The real reason I stopped by was

to give you this.

Figured a celebration was in
order,

and I don't think a sip
of wine would kill you.

Again, I'm sorry to barge in.

It's just a huge
breakthrough and I don't want

anything to go wrong
for us down at the lab.

Or for you.

We're so close.

[groaning and grunting]

Oh no.

[shushing]

Holy shit.

- I'm glad you stayed, Doc.

I may need your help with this.

- Edward!

Where is he?

- I don't know where he is. -
Tell me exactly what
the hell is going on here?

- I don't know what the
hell is going on here,

okay I woke up like this.

I think he went crazy or
something.

- He's not crazy.

But he has had some social
behavioral issues in the past,

we're treating him.

- You know this man?

- Yes, I'm his doctor.

Ethan Long.

- We can fix this.

We can fix this.

- So, doctor.

Maybe you can tell me what the
fuck

is going on with this lunatic.

I found a whole cupboard of
anti-psychotics in the bathroom.

- It's a long story.

- I'm a nurse.

Make it fast.

- He has a rare form of
psychosis

in which a trigger from his
past,

his mother's death in a house
fire that

he accidentally started
when he was seven years old

has given him great
difficulty in establishing

a permanent connection to a
present

and continuous social reality.

And for that he was
selected as one of a few

perfect candidates for a new
treatment

designed to release these...

- Drug trials?

Don't you usually keep your
subjects

locked up in a lab or something?

- Generally, yes.

But in these trials he needs to
be

in his natural environment
so the actual memories

can be invoked.

He's been in treatments of
Ceresia.

A drug I developed designed to
pinpoint

the range of these emotions and
memories

from his past and diffuse them.

Specifically, his guilt about
them.

It's a drug that could
possibly help millions.

- So you don't think it's
the drugs that set him off?

- I don't know what's happened
now.

My guess is that this new
relationship has set him off.

- Oh, so it's my fucking fault
now.

- Hopefully we could talk him
down.

Whatever you do, stay with me.

Okay?

We'll figure it out.

- Everything's gonna be fine.

Okay?

I promise.

[coughing]

- Edward, I need my inhaler.

[coughing]

[kettle steaming]

- Does anyone take sugar or
milk?

- Sugar please.

- Milk.

- You do realize the gravity
of this situation Edward.

You've taken two people hostage
here.

It's my duty as your physician

to illustrate the seriousness of
this.

- All you have to do is explain,
Doc.

Then everything goes back to
normal.

- Yes, that's just what I want
to do

but you have to help me
understand what's happened.

- Well, I don't know.

I don't know exactly, I mean...

You know how these things go,

I mean people in love do crazy
shit.

- You're not in love Eddie.

You're sick.

- See what I mean by that?

I don't like that.
- What you need to do Eddie,

you need to pull yourself
together

and you need to let us fucking
go.

- Leila please.

Just stay with us here.

Edward is trying to explain.

- I'm not sick.

Okay, I just didn't want her to
leave, so.

Simple enough.

Would you help me here, Doc?

- What do you want him to do?

- He can help us, he's a doctor.

That's what they do.

Therapy and...

- Okay, can you at least untie
us?

- I'm tied up.

You're not, I am.

I'm tied up, I'm tied up inside
okay?

I'd let you go, but
you're just gonna run back

to your husband, I know you.

She doesn't care about me.

You don't care about me.

Nobody cares about me.

- I do care about you Edward.

- I care about you as well,
Eddie.

- Thanks.

She's beautiful, isn't she Doc?

Look at her.

I mean you'd be a little
crazy too, wouldn't you?

I don't know why I got
all these feelings inside,

I just feel so stuck.

I feel...

I don't know, love sucks
sometimes.

Am I right?

[fast mumbling]

- Eddie, tying somebody
up and keeping them

locked in a house is not love.

- What do you want me to do
Eddie?

- I want you to tell her.

- Tell her what?

- I want her to see that
I'm in love with her.

I've finally fallen in
love, and it's amazing

and it's crazy.

The feelings I'm having
inside are in the way.

I don't know how to explain it

but I feel like they're just
pulling me...

- Where Edward?

They're pulling you where?

- It'll just be a moment.

- Tell me what you're feeling.

- I feel like I need to make
this work.

You know?

Let me ask you...

Am I in love with her?

Because I feel like I need to do

whatever it is I need to do to
keep her.

- You're not in love with me
Eddie!

- Leila please!

Edward, we are both medical
professionals.

You are showing symptoms
of being very sick.

We need to get you to a hospital

before this gets out of control.

- Well, I'm sick alright.

I'm lovesick.

- [Voiceover] Looks like
you've had quite a few of those

since I saw you last.

- Well, their your drug
and they seem to be

making me feel again, so.

- Listen to me Eddie.

We've come a long way with this
trial,

but I'm afraid it's the drug
that's causing these feelings.

- Yeah go ahead, make
it all about yourself

why don't you.

- We need to figure out
what is going on with you and
not get you thrown in jail

before the trial is approved,

so it's about both of us for
damn sure!

- Nothing has been done here
Eddie,

that cannot simply be undone.

Okay, it's just the drugs
that are causing you to feel...

- You hear the soothing sound
of this woman's voice Doc?

I am a prisoner of love.

- Eddie it's just these drugs,
they're making you crazy.

- Don't call me crazy.

- [Voiceover] You okay Edward?

- I need you to help us, Doc.

- I'm trying to help you Ed.

- God my fuckin' head fuckin'
hurts!

My fucking head hurts!

- [Voiceover] Come in
here and talk to me then.

- [Eddie] Alright.

- Leila, can you understand
what Edward's trying to say

through all this?

- No.

No I really can't.

Eddie.

Will you come sit down next to
me?

Eddie come sit down.

What did you want to tell me?

- You asked me if you loved her
Ed.

Let's talk about love, can we?

Maybe that's a good place to
start.

- [{Leila] Eddie, will you
come sit down next to me?

Eddie come on.

- I guess, if she wants.

- [Voiceover] Leila?

- Yes, yes I do.

- [Voiceover] Okay, um.

Leila I think what Eddie is
trying to say

is that he has somehow
fallen in love with you.

He seems madly in love with you

as a matter of fact.

- Yeah, mhm that's the problem.

- What's the problem with it Ed?

- I don't know, I don't know.

Tell him what you told me.

- What?

What do you want me to tell him?

- I want you to tell him
why you don't love me.

- [Voiceover] Edward
what's happening there?

- Stop, no.

Don't do that!

- Hold it now, calm down.

Leila, calm down!

Ed your lip.

You're bleeding, are you okay?

- Nobody cares about me Doc.

But after what I've done,
how could they really?

[crazed laughing]

- You've gotta work with me
here.

- I am fucking trying.

- Ceresia.

[haunting whispers]

How you feeling buddy?

- I'm fine.

- [Voiceover] 183 Overbay
Drive that's Fallon, yeah?

Aw, thanks man I really
owe you for this one.

- [Voiceover] What else can we
do here Ed?

- [Leila] Please let us go.

- Why don't you tell
him about your husband?

Still married.

- Yes, I'm still married.

I was married for seven years,

I never actually signed the
paperwork.

I'm so sorry that my failed life

is somehow now your big problem!

You're unbeliveable.

- See what I mean?

You love her, right?

- You say you love me and
this is how you treat me.

You don't know anything about
love.

You need help.

You're mentally ill, Eddie.

I don't deserve to be
tied up and held hostage.

- Leila.

- Have you ever killed anyone,
Leila?

- Your mother, I know.

- Yeah.

Yeah, yup.

Killed my own mother.

- It was an accident, Edward.

You know it wasn't your fault.

These trials were specifically
designed

to deal with that guilt.

- That's what you keep
telling me Doc, and so

I guess I don't feel guilty
anymore.

You're a huge success,
congratulations Ethan.

- I know what it's like to kill
someone.

Someone you love

more than anything in the whole
world.

- How could you know that?

- I had an abortion.

- Why?

- Will you still love me Eddie?

- Why?

Why did you do that?

- We weren't happy.

I didn't want to bring
a child into that world.

- Did your husband leave
you because of that?

- Yeah.

Yeah he did.

- Maybe she does understand.

- Leila.

Eddie has suffered with
delusions since the incident.

The doctors that treated him
originally

did think he was schizophrenic.

He's a smart guy, but from his
early teens

he managed his symptoms

with various anti-depressants...

- Total fuck up is what he's
saying.

- No, you're not a fuck up Ed.

But you do realize that you have
taken

two hostages here.

You have sliced my head open
pretty bad,

this is very serious.

- I kept you here to help us
doctor, okay.

Not to make me look
like a fucking lunatic.

I mean it was you who
came knocking at my door

wanting to check me out,
remember?

You were concerned about
your precious salvation drug,

fucking selfish bastard.

You know, that's all
these people care about. They
care about their
drugs and their money,

they don't give a shit
about me I'm a guinea pig.

That's what I am.

A fucking guinea pig.

- Your dosing is not helping
this Ed.

- Well right now it's the
only thing fucking helping.

- And making you totally insane.

- Please Edward, don't try to
justify

what you're doing here.

The police are going
to lock you up, not me.

- I thought you said I was
innocent.

- I don't deserve this fucking
nightmare,

just let us go Eddie, god damn
it!

- I can't bear to lose another
one.

- You say you love her,

then listen to her for christ's
sake.

- It's a strong feeling, love.

- But you can't make her love
you.

[creepy instrumental music]

Forgive me for saying this
Eddie,

but she's not your mother.

[loud yell]

- I don't need your help
anymore.

- Eddie, untie me I could help
him.

Untie me, untie me.

I need glasses of water,
and call an ambulance!

- Hi, hi.

Could you please send an
ambulance to 183 Overbay Drive?
A man is pretty badly hurt.

A fucking guy, okay?

Doc wake up, wake up.

Wake up god damn you!

Leila?

Leila!

I'm sorry honey, this is just...

- Get away!

- Relax, I swear they're coming.
Maybe we're meant for each
other.

I mean you've hurt
people, I've hurt people.

Both hurt other people...
- Stay the fuck away from me

Eddie, I swear to god I
will fucking kill you!

- Almost there baby, almost
there.

- Stop the car, now.

- Baby?

Baby, baby?

- There she is!

Leila!

- Stay right there.
- Leila!

- Please don't leave.
- [Leila] I swear.

- Please don't leave me okay,
I'm sorry.

- Stay away from me!

- Don't you see the beauty in
this?

We deserve each other.

- No!

- Come on, come on.

I'm not letting you go.

- Stop it.

I'm so sorry.

[crying and sobbing]

[ambient instrumental music]

- Almost home my love.

- Mom?
