Please. Don't. Don't hurt me. Please?

- Where's the boy?
- Stop!

You... You... You can't do this.

Don't hurt me!

You got one minute.
You got...

You got 30 seconds or
I'm going to put your eye out.

Where's the boy?

What boy?

Where's the boy?
The boy!

Rory? Rory? Rory?

Where is he? Where is he?



Where's the boy? Where's the boy?

Upstairs.

- Out of the way! Out of the way!
- What did you do to him?

Matthew?

Matthew?

Matthew, I'm a cop.

Coming through.

He's in shock, dehydrated,
but he'll be OK.

Everything's gonna be fine
now, kiddo. Wait and see.

- Good job, Harry.
- Thank you, brother.

Way to go.

Better hope he lives.

It had to be done.
The bastard wasn't talKing.

I.A.D. is gonna be all over
your ass for this one.

Fear Itself
Season01 Episode02

Strangling suspects...

Beating suspects.

My God. Burning suspects?

15 pages of this crap,

and yet you never once used
your firearm in the line of duty.

Why not?

Self-control.

Aren't you apologetic at all, Harry?

Not really.

And why is that?

Sometimes you gotta do
a wrong to make things right.

I'm not so sure Rory Bemmel...
would agree with that sentiment.

What's it gonna be, counselor?

You gonna lock me up and
swallow the key? What?

You saved a senator's child, Harry.

That's a pretty big bargaining chip.

100 hours. Community service.

But...

say good-bye to your badge...

and your pension.

Son of a bitch.

Yo, Harry?

FIFTEEN YEARS LATER

You get those caffeine pills I left you?

You know I got you
the cherry chewable ones.

For your old teeth.

You young me one more time,

- I'll make sure you regret it.
- You're gonna have to catch me first.

The label say take 2.
You know that means take 10.

We got some here!

Lovebirds comin' your way, Harry.

We saw action!

You think they're gonna get

right to the eel
in the cave game or what?

No foreplay?

Or just straight at it?

Give me a name, babe.

Give me a name.

I want to show you something.
I want to show you something.

Oh, Richard!

I got a name.

Oh, Janet!

- Get over here, get over here.
- Oh, I'm here, baby.

Oh, my wife never does that.

- I love that.
- What's wrong with her?

Do it again.

Right there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- You like that? You like that?
- I love that.

That is your husband's voice, right?

Yeah.

That's Richard.

This will help
with the divorce proceedings.

How much do I owe you, Mr. Bender?

2,000 dollars.

And 4,000 to destroy the other tape.

What other tape?

- Douglas!
- Oh, baby.

Richard know you're screwing his bro?

You like it like that, huh?

So, the ladies await.
Sure you don't want to go?

- No. I got paperwork to catch up on.
- All right. It's your call.

James?

What is that about?

Yeah. Just picked
this baby up the other day.

Sweet, right?

I thought I told you,
no guns on the job.

Come on, Harry, it's for protection.

There are a lot of sickos.
It's for protection.

I never want to see that gun again.
You understand?

I'm not kidding.

All right. Fine. You got it.

"Officer."

I'll catch you in the A.M.

Bender investigations?

Thanks, Tom.

Mr. Bender?

I'm Meredith King.

Of course. Have a seat.

I've got a very serious problem.

I hope I can be of help.

My husband is...

is having an affair.

Maybe more than one. I'm not sure.
He brings them...

back to our home when I'm gone.

I often work nights. I'm a
social worker for the city.

I'm sorry.

I want you to give me
the evidence,

Mr. Bender.

The evidence I need to make him pay.

That's my job, Mrs. King.
Making them pay.

Give me your address. I'll have a
van out front to eyeball the place.

A van? No, no.

Jack would notice a van
outside the house.

He already thinks that I know.

- That's pretty much how we do things.
- There's a place, a house

across the street.

It's vacant.

That's perfect, right?

That'll work.

Thank you.

Thank you for helping me.

Great.

Great.

Close the door, man.

Harry, I've seen some
hellholes in my day.

This looks like the helliest
and the holiest.

Oh, God.

I never thought I'd be looking
forward to that nasty old van.

Stop the chatter, man.

It's not great, but set up the remote
camera here on a three-hour loop.

I'm gonna go find
a better angle upstairs.

You got it.

You know what?

Now, that I look at it, we might be able
to fix this place up.

Make it into something nice, you know?

- Yo, Harry! I'm finished down here!
- Yeah, I'll be there in a minute.

Got a good angle up here!

Take the van, go down the road,
and find a good surveillance spot.

Be discreet!

"Discreet"'s my middle name.

I hope so, pal.

All right, so, it's 10:00, Harry.

Still nobody home.

Guess he's banging her
at the office tonight.

Yo, Harry. I was wonderin'.

You, uh, you ever get, you know,

hot, excited listening in
on all these little trysts?

James,

shut up.

So, wifey's keeping you happy then, huh?

What was that?

I said, "so, wifey's
keeping you happy then, huh?"

No, no. I'm picKing something up here.

Where? From the house?

Before he could even open his mouth,
this guy starts hitting him.

I got a light on. Second floor.

I don't see it.

Second floor. Far side.

Someone is in her house.

How? I didn't clock any cars coming by

Aren't you getting this?

I got nothing but an empty house.

Before he left, he kicked him.

Once in the head, and then in the ear.

This guy's a monster.

Must have been an auto timer,

radio frequencies, something.

Just keep your eye on the front door
this time. All right? Can you do that?

Harry. I swear to you.
Nobody went into that house.

James, someone's in here.

Where? Where you are? That old house?

Yo, Harry, you find anyone?

Let's go! Let's go, go!

- What the hell are you doing here?
- Nothing.

- Not good enough. What are you doing?
- Piss off, old man.

- Answer me.
- It was a dare. It was just a dare!

- A dare?
- To stay the night.

Don't tell my mom, all right? Please?

Why would someone dare you to stay here?

'Cause of what happened. To those kids.

What kids? What are you talKing about?

It killed them, man!

What killed them?

The house.

This house.

Get the hell off of me!

Big, bad Harry wigged
out by a couple tweens!

You all right, man?

- Punk kids.
- Working your heart out.

Oh, God. Oh, God.

I don't want to do it.

Do it!

Oh, God.

James, I got 'em.

Someone's in the house.

I got 'em, James. First floor.

It's so hard.

There you go, baby. Have a good time.

Take your time.

Just say his name.

Oh, God. He hurt me so bad.

Good. Just tell me
exactly how it happened.

He burned me with his
cigar! All over my thighs.

Listen. Just give me
a badge number, a name.

I can take down a formal complaint.

His name wasSeigel!

I came as soon as you called.

Mrs. King, I'm not going
to be able to...

finish the investigation.

That's yours. Minus
one night, of course.

I don't... I don't
want my money.

See, I want proof
that my husband is having an affair.

He never showed last night.

OK. Well, sometimes
he sleeps at the office.

I'm sorry, but you're going
to have to try again tonight.

What is it? There's something else.

Tell me, Harry. What's wrong?

I'm a good listener.
It's what I do.

If you knew some of the stories
that people have told me.

Broken lives, lost souls.

But I can promise you this...

no one feels worse after telling them.

Come on.

I've done some bad things.

Lots... of bad things.

We've all got skeletons.

Well, mine are starting to come back.

What do you mean?

That house I'm staking out in...
It's making me see things.

It's just a old house, Harry.

It's...

bricks and wood.
It couldn't possibly...

Harry...

Listen... my brother...

my brother, he made some big mistakes.

Big mistakes.

But every night my father would
come into his room and say,

"tomorrow brings another day."

Do you understand that, Harry?
We've all done...

bad things,

but tomorrow...

you can always try to make up for them.

But today...

Please, I'm begging you.
Please go back there, Harry.

Please.

Help me.

And maybe...

somehow...

I can help you.

You're gonna die, man.

I had a date tonight, Harry.
I thought the gig was over.

Changed my mind.

- What's this?
- That's a video loop from last night.

Check it out. See if any lights go on.

"Lights"? Harry, nobody
came home last night.

Just check it out.

Yo, you all right?

Mercy.

Yo, Harry.

What's up?

Look... I'm watching that tape.

And big surprise.

Nothing happened last night.

No cars,

no lights, no voices. Nothing.

Now, don't take this personally,
Harry, but, um...

maybe you fell asleep?
You know, dreamed it all?

What time is it, kids?

- Look, I was thinking...
- There are kids in the house.

James... there are kids in the house.

What?

Did she say she had kids?

All right, Harry, you know what?

I'm done, man. I'm done.

When you sober up, you can hit me back.

I'm signing off.

James?

Oh, no...

James! James!

There's an intruder in her house!

James! Come on, James!

- Call the police!
- How big is it?

Well, how big you want it?

Damn right I keep it loaded.

Don't you touch them. You son...

FOR SALE

Who's messing with me! Who is it? James!

You wanna play games?
OK. I'll play games.

He burned my face with a cigar!

- He kept slapping me!
- He cut me.

Where are you?

I know you're in here!

James!

Where are you?

James! Look at me.

Why are you so bad?

Harry.

You got the wrong guy, man.

Why are you so bad?

Why are you so bad?

I told you I was gonna change.

But you killed me anyway.

This is a dream, dream, dream.

Why are you so bad?

I didn't deserve this, Harry!

I never hurt anybody
who didn't deserve it!

- That girl you burned?
- He hurt me so bad.

- She was innocent.
- He burned me.

- Now all she knows his pain.
- ??

She... she...

- That kid you kicked senseless?
- You kicked me eight times, so stop.

- He was just a witness.
- Guess what...

Why are you so bad!

I am not so bad! I'm not so bad!

- Why are you so bad?
- I am not...

so... bad!

Oh, well, howdy...

doody, boys and girls!

Hey, there, little guy.

And Clara Belle, look at
all the kids at home.

What time is it, kids?

- Hey, you wanna see something neat?
- Sure.

Pop's gun!

Someday I'm gonna be a cop.

Just like him.

Bang!

Don't!

It's not loaded, dummy!
Pop keeps the bullets in here.

- You wanna hold it?
- No.

- Don't be a baby.
- I'm not a baby!

Then hold the gun.

Do you wanna play one ranger?

- Sure.
- OK.

No.

No!

What was that?

- Oh my God!
- Max.

No, no, no, no, Max!

It's better that this never happened.

Better for you.

Better for me.

Harry?

Harry!

I need us to make a pact.

A secret pact.

For how long?

Forever and ever.

Until you and me are in heaven...

with Max and mummy.

You understand me, Harry?

Do you understand me?

They were like you, Harry.

Didn't accept the darkness inside them.

Didn't understand
what it was capable of.

Now they understand.

This place made them understand.

Now they're at peace.

Don't you want to be at peace, Harry?

You deserve this.

Make things right.

Make it right. You deserve this.

Come on. Pay for it, Harry.

There were 4.

The girl...

I told you I'd never
let you forget this.

It was her. She survived.

No. I won't let you go!

- She wanted this to happen.
- Harry...

you have to pay the price!

Yeah. I'm not sleeping.
What's up?

Harry, what's going on!

Frank? Harry Bender.

I need a billing address, this number

917-555-0177.

- Yeah. I'll hold on.
- Where we going?

- To meredith's.
- Didn't we just leave meredith's?

It was a set up.
She tried to set me up, man.

It didn't work. She tried to scare me.

What you got? Pemberton apartments?

Thank you, brother. I owe you one.

Harry, tell me what's going on.

If I'm not back in 10 minutes,

well... call the police.

Call the police for what?
What are you gonna do?

Make her pay.

Harry. Harry. Harry!

Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man.

Yeah.

If I have to...

I will.

I promise you.

I promise.

Harry!

You knew what that house can do!
And you set me up to get me inside!

Why?

Why?

You better tell me right now.

Tell me now. Why? Why?

- They told me to!
- Who told you to?

Rory!

Rory Bemmel.

The man you murdered and
walked away from Rory Bemmel.

He was my brother.

They promised me... they promised me
that I could see him again,

that I could talk to him and...

we went into that houseand we tried.

But that house... that house it just
shows you what it wants to show you.

One thing about yourself
you can't live with.

Took the three of them but see...
Rory...

He protected me.

He's always protected me. You know why?

He saved me so I could find you.

And make you suffer...
like he suffered...

Harry.

HarrySeigel.

You didn't make it easy for me, did you?
Changing your name.

But 15 years is a long time.

I found you.

So you could do what, scare me to death?

Well, look at me, Meredith!

It didn't work! I'm alive!

No. No, you're not, Harry.
You're dead.

In here.
I knew it the minute I saw you.

Rory was right. You're so easy.
All you needed was a little push.

- Shut up.
- What did they show you, Harry?

- What's the {\one}thing you can't live with?
- Nothing.

What's the one thing that
made you a monster?

Harry. Listen to me.

It wasn't your fault, son. But...

sometimes you got to do a
wrong to make things right.

No one can ever know, Harry.

No one can ever know.

- It wasn't my fault.
- He was my brother.

- It was an accident.
- I was going to save him.

I didn't have a choice.

- I didn't have a choice.
- And you took him away.

No! No! No!

- Do it! Do it! Shoot!
- No!

Do it, you monster!

Do it.

Do it.

Shoot.

- Do it.
- No.

No!

- I'm truly sorry for what I've done.
- No, you're not.

I know what I am. And I know why.

- You're gonna pay.
- Things are gonna be different now.

I'm gonna do the right thing now.
The right thing.

Help me!

Harry!

Harry?

Harry! Oh, my God! Harry!

Harry!

It was an accident! It was an accident!
