Evil (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 12 - 100 Days - full transcript

Leland tries to get serial killer Orson Leroux's conviction overturned. Kristen is in court when her daughter, Laura, needs emergency heart surgery. David is a witness to a woman's evil nature.

Good afternoon, Mr. LeRoux.

I have 567 true-or-
false statements.

I use my wife's e-mail account
to avoid detection.

I said I want out!
Oh, you're never getting out.

Three missing Hispanic youths.

- I think the husband did it.
- Me, too.

You miss it. You should take

the tour of Everest
in the spring.

My youngest daughter,

Laura, she was born
with a heart defect.

In America, men are so lucky.



In my country...

you wake up, you are 22,

you have 15 wives and 42 kids.

But I am kidding.

I only have 32 children.

My ex-wife,

she's always mad
about something, yeah?

"Why did you give Joseph

"the peanut butter sandwich?

Now he has a rash."

And all I can think is...

"Who is Joseph?"

♪ The baby's gonna
have himself ♪

♪ A biscuit today.
Wait, what?!



That's not how it goes.

We're not barbarians.
Are you kidding me?

I'll do it again.

♪ Everybody's happy that...

- One more.
- You got it.

Hi.

I really enjoyed your set.

Yeah?

Are you an aspiring comedian?

- No accent.
- Yeah,

it's, um,
part of my schtick on stage.

- Ah.
- Ah.

What's your name?

Sonia.

I made you laugh.

Oh. This is a
nice apartment.

Are you independently wealthy?

No.

I just, um...

I invest well.

I should give my money to you.

How do you do it?

I anticipate disasters.

I sell short at bad times.

- Hmm.
- Some scotch?

Sounds good.

Sorry. Um...

I only carry it

because I've been jumped
a few times going home.

I don't like guns.

Neither do I.

Y-You know what?
It'll be...

far over here,

right there,

where you can see it.

And I'll be over here,
where you can see me.

Do you ever bring back
your earlier jokes?

- My earlier jokes?
- Mm-hmm.

Which ones?

You used to do one
about dancing.

Oh, wow, you've been
following me for a while.

A long while.

Oh, should I be worried?

Very.

The earlier jokes. Hmm.

Tell me one.

Mm.

Ah...

Hello, my friends.

I want to teach you a new dance.

It's called
"Kill the cockroaches."

Ah! There's
a mama cockroach.

Cha-cha-cha.

And father and brother.

Cha-cha-cha.

Oh, and don't forget the babies,

because they
will grow up to breed.

Cha-cha-cha.

What's wrong?

Who are you?

Sonia.

Wh...
Why, who are you?

I'm gonna go.

Sorry.
Thank you.

Oh! God.

I'm here, I'm here, I'm here.

I know, and I need you here.

Yeah, well,
just give me 20 minutes.

I'm just...
getting my files together.

Okay, but...
just know this looks bad.

They're never
gonna let LeRoux out.

Hurry.

Okay.

Sashi pukyi

jukshing metok tram,

Sashi pukyi jukshing metok tram.

Sashi pukyi jukshing metok tram.

Sashi pukyi...

Sashi pukyi jukshing metok tram.

Sashi pukyi jukshing metok tram.

Sashi pukyi jukshing metok tram.

Sashi pukyi

jukshing metok tram.

Sashi pukyi jukshing metok tram.

Hey!

Nothing.

Hey, sorry.

- What is it?
- Nothing. It's okay.

- Don't worry.
- No, I'm not worried.

I just want to know what it is.

Let me see.

It's a...
it's a mandala.

They use it in, uh,
Kagyu Buddhism.

I learned about it in Tibet.

So you're...

you're... a Buddhist now? No.

No. I'm just, uh...

I don't know, um...

exploring.

Okay. But don't worry,
I'm still me, so...

No, I know you're still you.
I just, I mean, Yeah.

I find it weird that you're
criticizing the Catholic stuff

in my job, while at yours...
Oh, no. Oh, no.

Buddhism's not a religion.

It's-it's a practice.

Okay.

Well, I got to go.
They need me in court. Okay.

- Bye.
- Bye. Oh, hey, hey, hey.

The Everest expedition's,
like, three months away,

and there's a prep meeting next week.
Where is it?

Denver.
So you got to decide

- if you want to lead the tour.
- Um...

can we talk about this later?
I'm kind of running late.

Oh, no, of course. Yeah, yeah.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Oh, don't leave that
bowl of rice out.

Birds eat it, and their
stomach explode.

Really?

So, what is this?

Just someone who needs
some spiritual advice.

What, like eating meat
on Fridays?

No.

She's just hearing
some kind of demon.

Okay.

All right, well, look,
uh, give me a call

if there's actually any real

supernatural crap to debunk.

I'll pick you up
at 4:00. Go.

Sonia?

Yes. David.

Thanks for coming.

Just one moment.

Oh. Please.

Dwight Ferrell.

And where do you
currently reside?

Rikers Island.

- Enhanced Supervision Unit Three.
- On November 10,

2019, you were arrested
for the murder

of three Hispanic youths.

Later you confessed
to these killings.

Is that correct?

Yes. Two weeks later,

you confessed
to other murders as well.

Yes. These were the three
families that Orson LeRoux

has been convicted of murdering.

- Yes.
- How did you kill

these families,
Mr. Ferrell?

In New York,

the easiest way to gain
access to a house

is by attending open houses.

I would go
to Mr. LeRoux's showings,

because he always had
large turnouts.

I would go unnoticed,

and then I would hide...

in closets,
children's playrooms,

sometimes the attic...

and I would wait.

And then?

I would hurt them.

Kill them?

Yes.

Starting with the father,
and then the mother.

I saved the children

for last.

Why are you admitting
to this now,

- Mr. Ferrell?
- Because I'm looking

for redemption.

I don't want to be responsible

for somebody like Mr. LeRoux

spending the rest of his life

in prison.

Mira.

Hey.

There's no way Dwight
killed those families.

There's no shared M.O.

Their forensic psychologist
saw a similar pattern.

Yes, and that forensic
psychologist is Leland Townsend.

Mira, don't help the defense.

LeRoux will be released,
and he will kill again.

Thank you for coming, David.

You do know I'm not a priest?

I do.

I just need some advice.

I hear a voice.

It was quiet at first,
uh, nonverbal.

Then it-it...

it grew...

into something of a whisper.

It's like Kings, chapter 19.

"God's voice was in the whisper"

after the earthquake
and the fire.

What'd the whisper say?

It said to kill.

That's not God's voice.

God doesn't tell people to kill.

He told Saul kill them all.

Amalek, and his men

and his women, his children,

and all infants.

That was the Old Testament.

And why does that matter?

Because...

God needed to protect
his chosen ones.

And does he not anymore?

Not in the same way.

The New Testament is different.

David.

Forgive me.

That's not good.

It's usually green.

You should call the doctor.

Go do your homework.
I got this.

- No, I'm here.
- Hello?

Hello, Doctor?
Uh, Dr. Docker? - Yes.

This is Andy Bouchard here. Uh,
I'm calling about my daughter

Laura. I was just online.

Yes, I was just
about to call your wife.

Why don't you bring
Laura in right now?

That time we discussed,
I think it is now.

What time? Is... I mean,
is there a problem?

What do these numbers mean?

It means we have to do
an immediate EKG

and if there is
severe regurgitation,

we'll have to execute
the procedure we discussed.

I'll see you
in about 30 minutes.

Wait, wait. What procedure?

- Procedure?
- I think it's best

that you come in
in 30 minutes, Mr. Bouchard.

Of course. We'll be right there.

What is it?

Um, where's Laura?

Guys, if you kill someone
who's not a zombie,

then they're gonna turn into a zombie.
Wait, wait.

Is it a running zombie or is it
a slow-walking zombie like...

It really doesn't matter.

That's why you have to
shoot them in the legs.

That's how they slow down.

Quiet, quiet.
Hold on. Quiet, quiet.

We all need to get ready

because, uh,
we're going on an outing.

- Where?
- We're gonna take Laura

- to the doctor.
- Why? What happened?

No, I don't want
to go to the doctor!

And then we're going for I... and
then we're going for ice cream.

- You want ice cream?
- Yeah! Yeah, yeah!

Okay. So get ready
in ten minutes, please.

Ten minutes. Quickly.

- Ten minutes, ten minutes.
- I love you.

Hi, this is Kristen Bouchard.

If you leave
your name and number,

I'll get back to you shortly.

Hey, it's me. Uh, the doctor
wants me to bring Laura in

for a procedure, uh,
that is in 20 minutes.

...believes you are
demonically possessed.

Why would she believe that?

I can't answer...

It's important, so call me.

Idam guru ratna mandala-kam
nir-yatayami.

Idam guru ratna
mandala-kam nir-yatayami.

Idam guru ratna mandala-kam
nir-yatayami.

Detective, after you
arrested Dwight Ferrell,

what did he tell you?

He said there were more victims.

Not just the three boys.

He had also killed

three families that Mr. LeRoux
was convicted of killing.

So, in that case, Mr. LeRoux

should not be imprisoned
for these murders?

Correct.

But it is true that sometimes

people confess to murders
they didn't commit.

It is. And why would you say
that didn't happen here?

Because Mr. Ferrell led us
to trophies

he'd buried from these families.

Would you describe
these trophies

for me, please?

Uh, fingers
from Mrs. Gilbert,

one of the victims.

A pacemaker taken from the
desecrated body of Mr. Gilbert.

A kitchen knife used in one
of the other killings.

No further questions.

Your witness,
Mr. Cormier.

Your Honor, I have a few
questions for the detective,

but I need a short recess.

I'm sorry, David.
I didn't mean

- for this to happen.
- I need a doctor.

- I'm hurt.
- I'm so sorry.

I can't.

My friend Ben dropped me off.
He's coming back any minute.

You have to let us go, Sonia.

♪ All that she wants

♪ Is another baby

♪ Yeah...

That is "All That She Wants"

from Ace of Base, number four
on the American hit charts.

And a favorite
of our Hutu brothers.

But not our Tutsi brothers?

To be my brother,
you must share a mother.

And my mother was no cockroach.

And what do you say

to those who argue Tutsis
are just like us?

- Blood runs through their veins.
- So do cockroaches.

But I'm not a cockroach.

Who was that?

My neighbor.
Oops, here comes his wife.

Now you've made
a mess of my floor.

I think you have a
Tutsi intern to clean it up.

Hey, Ngabo.

Y-Yes, sir, what do you need?

Can you just clean up there?

Clean up what where?

You have to bend down.

- Oh, no.
- Get very close.

- See?
- Yes.

I-I think it's...

That wasn't me.

Yes, it was.
I worked at the radio station,

but that, I never did that.

April 4,

1994.

That was the broadcast
three days before it started.

You can download it from the...
II understand.

- But that wasn't me.
- Sonia.

You called me
because you wanted to talk.

Let's talk.

Radio Two encouraged

the Hutu majority to take to the
streets to massacre the Tutsi.

That man over there
is Jean Bakunda,

the funnyman of Radio Two.
No, Sonia.

I am Lando Mutabazi,
an immigrant

from Rwanda.

I suffered, too, just like you.

I'm sorry. Did you want to talk
to me about how you suffer?

Sonia.

I am not who you think I am.

Don't! Sonia.

Look at me.

You said you felt this thing,

this evil oppressing you.

Killing him is evil.

He broadcast for the
next hundred days.

Wasn't me.

He encouraged the Hutus
to take to the streets,

to break into homes, churches,
raping Tutsi women,

hacking innocent people.

- With machetes exactly like this.
- I did not...

I did not. I swear.
I'm just a comedian.

Two million Tutsis murdered,

hacked to death
by their neighbors.

Two million!

What is the difference between
a car and a hundred dead Tutsis?

What?

I don't have a car in my garage.

How many dead Tutsis does it
take to change a lightbulb?

Oh, no. How many?

It must not be 30 because
my basement is still dark.

And now more hits from America.

Number three
on the Billboardcharts.

Boyz II Men's
"I'll Make Love to You."

Sonia, you said
you heard a voice.

That was the voice of revenge.

Listen to God's voice.

He's the voice of justice.

Lando, tell the truth.

Admit what you've done
and plead for mercy.

Sonia is merciful.

She is a truly good person.

I was under orders
from the government militia

to work at the station.

But I was just an engineer.

Sonia, every night I go

to bed, and I hear the screams

of the children
who were murdered.

Every night!

Let me help you with that.

No!

No!

You may begin,
Mr. Cormier.

Thank you for the recess,
Your Honor.

Just a few questions.

Detective Byrd, is it true
you're writing a book

about the serial killer
Dwight Ferrell?

You're shaking your head,
Detective.

Does that mean no?

No, it doesn't.

I understand why you
might be embarrassed.

Are you writing a book?

Yes.

And it would increase
the book's salability

if the body count

of the serial killer
was increased.

Objection. Offensive
and prejudicial.

It's a post-conviction hearing,

Counselor.
The only person to prejudice

is me. I'd like to hear
the detective's answer.

My guess is what would
improve the salability

would be the truth.

Yeah. That's how it works.

- Objection!
- A cheap shot, Counselor.

Sustained.

I will happily withdraw.
Nothing further.

You are excused, Detective.

The elevated troponin and BNP

was a sign that Laura's
heart was being overworked,

and the EKG shows severe
mitral valve regurgitation.

The valve isn't healing.
It's worse.

Okay. Uh, so, okay.
So, what do... what do we do?

I need to perform an emergency
cardiac catheterization.

What is that?

A guide wire is led up to the
heart valve from the groin.

It gives a diagnostic view

of what is going on

and allows us to
repair the valve.

Okay, I just...
I need to get my wife.

I-I understand.

But I need to prep her
for surgery right now.

Now? I mean, right now?

Why? Why right now?

I'm sorry if I haven't
made myself clear.

I was hoping
that the valve would heal.

Now I'm certain that it won't.

It's too dangerous
not to deal with this now.

Hi, this is Kristen Bouchard.

If you leave your name
and number, I'll...

Okay.

Okay. If you got to do it,

- you got to do it. Okay.
- Yeah.

Oh, my God.
You're just going to cut me up...

Lando, wait.

Sonia, you believe in
mercy, right?

That was mercy.

Remember,

Jesus healed the ear
of the soldier.

"Those who draw the sword
will die by the sword."

Yes, but he also said,

"Think not that I am come
to bring peace on Earth:

"I came not to bring peace

but a sword."

This sword.

I'll get the first aid kit.

You have to find the key.

Quick, unlock me.

There's no time.

Sh-She's not gonna
let you live either.

She's going to kill both of us.

What are you doing?

Help!

Help us! We're trapped!

Help!

Help! We're trapped!

Help us!

Help!

Please!

Help us!

Help!

And it was during
one of these sessions

that Mr. LeRoux physically
attacked you? Yes.

He leaped across the table,

forced me to the ground
and strangled me.

Multiple prison guards had
to pull him off.

Thank you, Doctor.

Mrs. Bouchard, did my client
actually jump at you

because you taunted him?

- No.
- Really?

You do remember
you're under oath, right?

Doctor? Is it "Doctor"?

Yes, "Doctor."

And I do remember...

that I'm under oath.

Okay, did you

not tell Mr. LeRoux that he
will never get out of prison?

Do you need a moment,
Mrs. Bouchard?

I did say those words

but not at the moment

when Mr. LeRoux attacked me.

Well, good.

That is a relief.

And did you not taunt
Mr. LeRoux by saying to him...

here it is... "You are 48 years
old, and prisons have

good health care, so you won't
get out till you are 100"?

I did say that.

But, again,

not prior to Mr. LeRoux
attacking me.

Do you usually taunt
your patients?

Mr. LeRoux
was not a patient.

And, also,
I had already... resigned

- from the case.
- Resigned or been fired?

Objection.

- Help!
- Help!

- Please!
- Help!

- Help us!
- We're-we're bleeding!

Please. Help!

Shh. Wait.

What's wrong, Joker?

Help!

- Help!
- Help!

Please!

All right, leave it.

Leave it. Joker, come.

No!

Wait!

Help us!

I'm maimed for life.

She-She's going to kill me.

Just-just tell her the truth.

I am telling her the truth.

I am just a comedian.

I am not a soldier.

Then tell her that.

Explain that.

She's struggling with herself.

- She...
- Hello?

Wait.

Help us!

- We're here!
- We're down here!

- We're here! Please!
- Help!

Hello?

Hello?

He-Hello?

You shouldn't have done that.

You are a man of God.

You shouldn't want
anybody else in this.

Shh.

This is your responsibility!

Don't do anything.

May I help you?

Is everything all right?
I heard screaming coming

from your basement,
someone calling for help.

Oh, I think you
must be mistaken.

Actually,

I can't leave
until I know everything's okay.

Like, ethically.

I really hate how New Yorkers
don't care about each other.

Help!

Help! Shh!

Shut up. You're gonna get
somebody else killed.

So what?

She's killing me!

Help!

Help! Help!

I'm watching a horror movie.

I think that's what you heard.

I know what a horror movie
sounds like.

And if you are not willing
to investigate the situation,

then maybe the police will.

I'm sorry.

I recognize I'm
being a little cagey.

I'm just, uh,
embarrassed, is all.

My husband and I,

we are in the middle of, um,

a bit of role-play.

We've been going
through a dry spell,

and, uh, I thought
the situation was hopeless,

until we started exploring

- and...
- I'm sorry.

I feel like an idiot.

Um, ha-have you tried
the Pleasure Palace on Wyeth?

They have
some really great stuff there.

Good idea.

I will.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

he's in a very...
compromised position.

Got it.

Oh.
Oh. Hey.

All right.

Hey there.

Sonia, right?

I'm Ben. I'm here for David.

Ah. Right.

Come on in.

- Yeah.
- David is just, uh, out back.

Such a pretty day.

Um...

I-I'm sorry.
Just-just one second.

- Yeah. Hello?
- Uh, hey, is this Ben?

- Yeah, who's this?
- This is Andy,

- Kristen's husband.
- Oh, hi.

Hey.

Uh, listen, I'm-I'm trying
to get in touch with Kristen,

uh, but I can't.

Um... is she with you?

With me? No.

Look, it's-it's okay if she is.

I just need her to know
that Laura is in the hospital

for an emergency procedure.

Oh, my God. I'm
so... I'm so sorry.

Uh, uh, I think she's
in, uh, court today.

Well, she's not answering
my calls. I mean,

uh, c-could you try her or...

I just need her to get here.
Oxwell Hospital.

Well, if she's not
answering your calls,

she's probably not
gonna answer mi...

O-Okay, le-let me... let me try.

I-I'm so sorry.
Just a minute.

Take your time.

Would you like a cup of tea?

What? No, no, no,
thanks. Yeah.

Come on, come on,
come on, come on.

Hi, this is Kristen Bouchard.

Yeah, I can't, uh,
get her either.

I think, uh, her cell
is probably off.

Uh, look, I can head down to
the courthouse and tell her.

- You sure?
- Yes, definitely.

Okay, just tell her that the
operation's going on right now.

Wow. Okay. Uh, got it.

Uh, we'll-we'll talk later.

Uh, I'm so sorry.

Please tell David that
I'll be back in about an hour.

Uh, there's been a bit
of an emergency.

Certainly.
Uh, I hope it all works out.

Yeah. Me, too.

Hey. Here we are,

just the two of us,
coming full circle.

Oh, my goodness.

Your testimony went
poorly today, didn't it?

I think the judge was
leaning againstLeRoux

until you testified.

What do you think?

And the sad thing is

you had so many chances
to not get involved.

How many times did I tell you
to go home to your daughters?

Don't get involved in David.

But then, every step of the way,

you did the opposite.

And now your husband's
offering this gift:

go climbing.

And, yet, here you still are.

I'm gonna do for you
what God did for Job.

Job had only three daughters.

God killed them.

You have four daughters.

I'm gonna kill every last one,

then your husband,

then burn down your house.

I'm not gonna touch you though,

no, because I want you
to live with the realization

that you're responsible
for their deaths,

that you let them die

through your obstinacy,
your need

- to win...
- God, you talk too much.

If I were you, I would not...

What, tempt you?

Seriously?
Is that how the Devil works,

he needs to be tempted
to do wrong?

I am not to be trifled...

Jake Perry.

What?

That's your real name.

You're an insurance adjuster
from Des Moines.

Or at least you were
until your second divorce.

Then you moved to New York,
went to college and decided

to recreate yourself
as Leland Townsend,

a forensic psychologist
psychopath.

Is that what the Devil does?

Uh, you...
Yep, the Devil may be techsavvy,

but so are we mortals.

And all I had to do

was use some of the genetic
material that you left

on a glass in my kitchen, ask
the help of a detective friend

and, bang,
there it was, a match.

The Devil can use anybody...

Really, Jake?

"Jake the Flake,"

shyest boy in the class of 1979
at Roosevelt High School.

Honorary member of band club.

How was playing the tuba
in marching band?

And let's talk
about your first wife.

Aw. Janey.

She wanted to have children,

but you had trouble
getting it up, didn't you?

None of this is true.

And then
your second wife, Tina...

she married you for the money.

Do you want to know how I know?

I just gave her a call.

I mean, you'd think if-if the
Devil had anybody to inhabit,

he'd use a better specimen.

No?

I am going to...

What? Hurt me?

How?

You're a nothing man
from Des Moines

who is using the imagery
of satanism...

a satanism you probably
don't even believe...

to pretend you weren't
the third chair tuba player

in the Roosevelt
High School band.

Here's a thought... Jake.

Get a life.

Kristen!

- You're making a mistake!
- No, don't do it. Please!

Don't do it, Sonia. I am only...

This is wrong... asking if you are
right-handed.

No. No, no, no, no, no!
I'm left-handed.

Then this is the hand
that held the machete.

Lando, tell her!

Just... tell her.

I did not use a machete.

- I did not!
- Just... what did you do?

I was funny.

That's all.

I-I said what I was told to say.

And you said those things?!

Yes! Yes!

I never hurt anyone.

I'm a comedian.
I make jokes.

I-I love Robin Williams.

I love Richard Pryor.

I-I punch up.
I don't punch down.

Punch up at what?!

Tutsis.

They were wealthy.

They-they had power.

They had cattle.

I told jokes about them.

Every comedian
makes fun of people,

but you make fun
of people in power.

It doesn't make
people into killers.

That was a confession, Sonia.

Let him go.

Please.

...nir-yatayami.

Idam guru ratna mandala-kam

nir-yatayami.
Idam guru ratna...

Kristen?

Idam guru... Is Laura okay?

She's fine. She's fine.
Where is she?

She's in the recovery room.

Ben, the Magnificent!

- They're operating on Laura.
- Hey. Hey. Aw.

Come here. We're
gonna make...

Hey. Oh.

What were they doing?

I-I don't know.
I didn't see.

They were chanting. Were they?

Yeah. Isis that a
problem if they were?

I just think we should discuss

before sharing any
religion with the girls.

I didn't share anything
with them.

Well, then how did they...?
Oh, I don't know.

How do they find out anything?
The Internet.

I was in the church when I heard
the... the gates torn open.

I ran, but I was struck
from behind with a metal pipe.

I fell.

And my sister fell next to me.

Half her face was gone.

I pretended to be dead.

Even as I heard
the Hutus take the babies

from the arms of their mothers
and crack their heads

on the western
wall of the church.

Oh, there were so many...

terrible things I heard.

But the most terrible sound
was the laughing.

The Hutu men telling your jokes

about cockroaches and laughing

as they hacked everyone
to pieces.

Sonia.

I believe God sees everything.

He will understand
why I do what I do.

No! No!

I'm sorry!
I'm sorry. I'm so sor...

I'm just very sorry.

Believe me.

Thank you.

I forgive you.

Your soul is clean.

Ah.

Why did you do that?

He asked forgiveness.

And I forgave him.

But you killed him.

Yes.

But not for revenge.

For justice.

Hello.

There has been a shooting
at 1865 Grand.

Yes, one dead body.

Sonia Kamanzi.

I shot him.

Yes.

And please send an ambulance.

There's an injured man
here, too.

The question is always
about justice.

How best to servejustice.

These murders may have
at first appeared

to be two separate cases,

but after careful consideration,

there is only one.

Orson LeRoux,

I overturn your conviction
on all counts.

You are free to go.

Your Honor!

I have ruled, Mr. D.A.

He's gonna kill me.
He's gonna kill me.

He's gonna kill me. He's
gonna kill me.

May I hug you, sir?

I want you to have this.

It's my personal Bible.

I hope it helps you
find some peace.

I was so brave.

You really were, and
I'm so proud of you.

It's over.

Are you all better?

- Yeah, a little bit.
- It still hurts there.

- Can I see your scar?
- Yeah.

It's underneath.

They're gonna bandage around it.

Did they put you to sleep?

Yeah.
Did the medicine taste good?

No.

Doctor gave it to me,
but I didn't like it.

No medicine tastes good.

Doctor, is Laura
gonna be all right?

- Oh, the doctor.
- Hi, Doctor.

Can I see a picture
of the heart?

Guys, guys, guys, guys, guys.
Like, I really wanted to hold it.

Shh, shh.
We need to talk to the doctor.

Okay, Mommy.

Is everything okay?

The results are a bit unusual.

Okay.

Sometime between the EKG and
performing the cardiac cath...

Mm-hmm.

...the mitral valve
in Laura's heart

has completely healed.

It has?

Yes. And I don't know how.

Young bodies
are mysterious to us.

Sometimes they heal
unexpectedly, sometimes

even... miraculously.

Idam guru ratna
mandala-kam nir-yatayami.

Idam guru ratna mandala-kam
nir-yatayami.

I've made a choice.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

Tell me.

I'm gonna stay.

You go to Denver.

No. It's your turn.

Laura's well.
The kids are great.

I can take care of them.

I know you can, but I'm-I'm
not doing it for you.

I'm doing it for me.

I have a career here...
something that's challenging me.

I... I don't want
to give it up.

Okay. Okay.

I'll go to Denver to set it up,

but I'm gonna get
one of the boys to run it.

You don't have to.

I know.

Okay.

So, um...

the chant.

Mm.

What does it mean?
What were you praying for?

Tong-Lin.
It-it means "giving and taking."

It's like an exchange.

What were you exchanging?

Uh... well, I...

I asked for Laura to be healed.

Um... in exchange
for my life.

Andy.

No. Don't worry.
It's just a mantra.

Come on. Hey.

She has this way
of getting to me.

I'll be feeling all-knowing
and all-powerful, and then,

she's in my face,
and I just feel... impotent.

When you say "impotent,"

do you mean sexually?

No. Uh...

She's talking about Jake
the Flake and the marching band.

And why do people make fun
of marching bands?!

That's a worthy entertainment.

And I just...

I should have ripped out
her heart.

Why didn't you?

It's not part of the plan,
or has that changed?

Do you wantthe plan to change?

No.

Good.

Then find someone else
to take her heart out,

and you and I will
eat it together.

Now tell me about your dreams.
