Medium (2005–2011): Season 6, Episode 18 - There Will Be Blood... Type B - full transcript

Disappeared.

We're guessing he's
gone off his meds.

His meds?

He's supposed
to co-lead a presentation

For the department of defense on
this bio-fuels project tomorrow.

What's your tomorrow look like?
Do you have a suit?

So this is how
you use your gift.

I'm sorry, do I know you?

So this is how
you use your gift.

She looked at me and she said,

"is this how you use your gift?"



I dreamt about
her, too.

Devalos has just found
another family-- blood gone,

Posed for pictures.

He wants me to go
take a look.

He's getting away!

Stop him!

Turn him around.

You dream things,
don't you?

I'm not telling you anything.

If you change your mind.

Jennifer, is that you?

Stay where there are people.
I'll come and get you.

Now tell me what happened.

I, uh... I had a dream
he was coming after me.



You were right, I do dream.

The thing is, I didn't realize
the things I saw in my sleep

Were actually happening.

Not until I went inside
the prescott house

And saw them all
sitting there-- dead.

It's okay.

We're not going to let
anything happen to you.

So these dreams--
did you see him?

Can you tell me anything
about him?

I never see him.

Can't even really be sure
he is a him.

Although his hands
look like man's hands.

And he's white.

I know he's white.

I only see what he sees.

I only see through
his eyes.

You make it sound like it's been
going on for a while.

Just since the accident.

Just before I turned 16,
I was with my parents.

We were coming back home
from college night.

I was sleeping in the back,

So I didn't have
a seat belt on.

So when the car slammed on
its brakes in front of us,

I didn't even see anything.

They say I never woke up.

Just got thrown through that
window and onto the highway.

But I actually remember
flying past my parents...

Kind of knowing
I'd never see them again.

They told me in the hospital
that that wasn't possible.

But I still remember it.

And that's when
the dreams started?

In the hospital, yeah.

Do you want to tell
me about your dreams?

Okay, but, uh, could we get
some food first?

At first it was just woods--
walking through woods.

Feet.

I think it must have
been near flagstaff.

And then it was sitting
in woods and waiting--

Lots of waiting.

And then...

It was hard-- watching it die.

I love animals.

And then it got weirder.

He started draining
the blood out of it.

At first I didn't think
much of it.

My dad used to hunt, so I knew
all about bleeding your kill

To keep the meat.

It was the posing
that creeped me out.

He seemed to like
taking picture of it.

All shriveled up.

And then he started
taking it places.

It's almost 6:00 in the morning.

You have to be exhausted.

I know I am.

So how does this work?

I can't go back out there.

He knows who I am
and he wants to kill me.

You're not going to take me
back to jail, are you?

Marie, honey, I need you
to come out of there.

No! I'm never coming
out of here!

Not now, not ever!

Marie, everybody has got
to get to school.

Daddy has got a big meeting
with the department of defense,

So I really need you
to unlock this door!

No, I want mommy!

Mommy is not here.

Mommy!
Open this door,
young lady!

The problem is, you've
messed with forces

No man
should ever mess with--

She lost her tooth.

When she looked under her pillow

And saw that there wasn't
any money there...

That's a big screwup.

She lost her tooth
in the middle of the night?

Well... How am I supposed
to get in there?

How am I supposed
to even know?

Hey, you're the parent.

Just go in there
and coax her out.

I'll sneak in, I'll slip
a dollar under her pillow.

What?

I can't do that.

I'm a kid. That would
make me a traitor.

Oh...
Mom still not here?

No. I don't know
what to tell you, ariel.

She left in the middle of the
night to do something for work.

I got a text--
I know she's okay,

But I have no idea
when she's coming back.

How am I supposed
to get to school

If I can't use her car?

I'm gonna take you.
I'm gonna take everybody.

As soon as I get marie
out of her room.

All right, fine.
You got a buck?

Here.

All right,
I'm goin' in.

Marie, it's bridge.

Open up or else
I'm telling mom

Where you hide
your dirty underwear.

That was easy.

I'm here.

Finally. I have to leave
for school right now...

Joe, ariel, say hi.

This is jennifer.

Wow. Dumb tooth fairy

Left a dollar under
my pillow when it was
supposed to be for...

Hey!

You're the girl in
my dream who tried
to kill herself.

Are you serious about this?
She needs our help.

It'll probably just be
a couple days.

If I understand
everything you've told me,

This girl's being pursued
by a serial killer--

A serial killer who
targets families.

That's why I called my boss.

He's arranging to have
a police car

Posted outside of our house
as long as jennifer's here.

Oh, okay then, well, it will
just be like normal.

Allison, come on,
you haven't slept.

You're not thinking clearly.
This girl is a criminal.

She's an orphan.

She stole some food to eat.

Okay, be that as it may,
there has to be another option.

Look, this is the only
protective custody

I could get her
to agree to.

I mean, think about it--
she doesn't have a home.

She doesn't want
to go back to jail.

She's frightened.

Well, so are your children.

They dreamt about her
killing herself.

You dreamt about
her killing herself.

That is not something
I want my daughters around.

That is not something
I want my daughters exposed to.

Now can you guarantee me
that she is stable?

Huh? Can you?

Can you guarantee me
that one of our girls

Isn't going to come home
and find this kid

Swinging from a rafter?

Your point is taken.

Listen, I promise you,

I will not let this girl
out of my sight

As long as she
is here, okay?

I gotta go.
Okay, look, I know.

I know you have a big day.

And I know I haven't
made it any easier.

Good luck.

Well, she's as ready
as she's ever going to be.

And you're sure she understands?

I'm not agreeing
to anything up front,

But if she gives us something
we can use,

I'll withdraw the breaking
and entering charges.

I explained it all to her.

And she knows that if we sense
that she's being

Less than forthcoming, I reserve
the right to re-file?

Well, she's a little girl.

But she knows she's giving
something to get something.

You two get some sleep?

Well, some.

Oh, thanks for sending
the car.

You have to understand--

Up until I actually saw that
family sitting in their tv room,

I just thought it was
a picture-taking thing.

What do you mean?

When I would dream, it would be
about their picture being taken.

He was just always taking
pictures of them,

Of their house.

I never made the connection
to the elk.

Then it was alarm systems.

I realize now he was trying
to learn everything he could

About alarm systems.

And then one night
I was sleeping

Under these high school
bleachers, and I had a dream.

But this dream was different.

There's no camera,
no lens to look through.

He seemed to get
into the house.

And I woke up,
and I was so hungry,

And all my friend
had found to eat

Was someone else's garbage.

So I thought, let's just
go over there, take a look.

So for you, this
was just about
helping yourself

To the contents
of their kitchen.

Okay.

So what happened then?

And then I heard the tv.

David...

So I went into the tv room,
and I saw them.

And what did
you think?

I didn't know what to think.

I didn't know what they were.

I thought they were people,
and I thought they were alive

Or had once been alive.

I just...

I thought I needed
to get out of there,

So I did.

And what about
the second family?

What about them?

Did you dream about him
taking pictures of them?

Yeah. And their house.

But I never saw an address,
or I would have warned them;

I would've called someone.

You're sure about that?

But the night of
the murders--

That night--
you did see an address?

Yeah.

And you saw someone
defeat the alarm system

And break in?

Yeah.

But you didn't call anyone then.

It's okay.

Just tell them the truth.

I didn't call anyone.

I just went over there
hoping to find food.

I got in there
and the cops showed up,

So I hid in that closet.

But in all the time

That you've been
dreaming these dreams,

Seeing things
through this man's eyes,

You've... Never seen his face?

Never seen his license plate,

His home address...?

If there's anything else
you could give us...

He, uh,

He didn't just
take pictures.

He liked to draw, too.

Yeah. Uh, sometimes when
I'm not doing anything...

I draw it, too.

I don't even think about it,

I just look down and it's there.

I don't know, allison...

Caucasian,
takes pictures,

Knows his way around
an alarm system.

Oh, yeah,
and loves clowns.

Not exactly
the da vinci ce.

Lee, you tell me,

Are we any further ahead
than we were this morning?

This morning we had nothing.

Now at least
we have next to nothing.

I guess this alarm thing's
a good place to start.

If she's telling the truth.

If she's telling the truth.

What do you mean,
if she's telling the truth?

Come on, allison,

She's basically a street kid.

Take it from me,
they learn fast

How to say what they need

To keep their
head above water.

I'm sorry, you're wrong.
You're both wrong.

How can you be so sure?

Your dreams, you've been
dreaming them all your life,

Haven't you?

Yeah. So?

Didn't you just
tell me that this girl

Just started dreaming?

Don't you find that
awfully convenient?

Well, I-I'm sorry
I can't explain it.

I don't know how to prove it.

But I can tell you
I believe her.

I believe that this girl
has a direct line

To this guy's head--
which means

She's not gonna
stop dreaming.

And he is not gonna stop
doing what he is doing.

Which means
at some point in time,

She is probably gonna see
something that's of value to us.

Well, I hope
you're right.

In the meantime,
this girl is in your home.

Be careful.

I'll-I'll tell my husband
that you said that.

The paradox of aviation

Is that you need enough fuel
to power your aircraft

And provide lift
for the manpower to fly it,

Your payload and the weight
of the fuel itself.

This is why it's long been
a dream of aviators everywhere

To find a fuel that has
little or no weight.

Colonel reidy,
ladies and gentlemen,

We believe we have come up
with a breakthrough,

Next-generation,
synthetic fuel hybrid,

Whose weight is one-eighth

That of conventional fuels.

Now, the key to this...

This amazing breakthrough

Is the ability to harness

The innate energy found in
the latest synthetic polymers.

Which
synthetic polymers?

Excuse me?

It's a simple question.

maybe I'll give you

The first letter and
you can try to guess.

Who is this man?
How did he get in here?

I'm a genius;
I have clearance.

He's with me.

Joe, come on.

Starts with a "p,"

Rhymes with "bismaleimides."

Keith.

Joey, baby,
you can do this.

Keith, I need you
to turn around and
leave this room.
No, dan.

This is a simple question.

Right? If joe would...
Would do his homework,

If joe would have
applied himself...

I want to know
who this man is.

Who am I?

I am thomas edison.

I am madame curie.

I am steve "the man" jobs!

And this is my apple!

This is my radium!

This is my lightbulb!

And I'll be damned
if I'm gonna let

Somebody else
tell you about it!

You know, if you'd rather
I stay someplace else...

Well..

Why would you say that?

Why would you think that?

I'm just saying
I'm pretty self-sufficient.

I'd find a place to sleep.

Besides, I don't
think that I impressed
your friends too much.

It's not like I had
a lot to offer.

And I think they had
a hard time understanding

How I could go into that house,

See those dead people...

And steal their food.

I know that you have been
through a lot in your life.

We all know that you
have been through a lot.

In your life.

Okay?

Hey.

Come on, let's get you
some dinner, okay?

Hey, are you in there?

No.

You okay?

I don't know, al.

What can I
do for you?

I'm just looking for my husband.

Okay, I lied;
I'm in here.

Go back to bed.
What are you doing?

I can't sleep,
and I can't wander
around the house

'cause there's a stranger
sleeping in the living room.

How many times do you want me
to apologize for that?

I'm not asking
you to apologize.

I'm just saying,
I had the...

The most not-of-this-earth
professional experience
of my life today,

And... And it just
keeps running over and
over again in my head.

Okay. Come on,
you're home now.

Come on, come on,
come back to bed.

I'm trying to sleep,
but I can't,

Not without hearing
that maniac

Call from the back of the room
that he's-he's albert einstein

Or niels bohr
or nicolaus copernicus

Or whoever the hell
he's claiming to be.

All right, take a deep breath.

I mean, he's-he's-he's
full-blown crazy.

He's out of his mind.

That's the scary part.

You're standing in a room
with military guys
and government guys,

And you're trying to get them
to take a leap of faith

And-and invest in
this thing that doesn't
really even exist yet,

And they want to believe.

And then this crazy
guy shows up and says
that he invented it,

And he did.

And then all of a sudden,
everybody in the room realizes

They're in league
with a crazy man.

It's just not what I anticipated
when I woke up this morning.

Shh...

Shh.

Take a breath.

Shh.

Do you really think that this
is gonna make a difference?

Close your eyes.

Shh.

You may be on
to something.

You all right?

I saw you fall.

Ew, you licked it.

It's only blood.

You won't miss it.

Here, put
that on it.

Press it.

It still hurts.

It stopped bleeding,
but it still hurts.

That'll go away.

Here, for the tears.

Thank you.

That's a nice camera.

What are you taking
a picture of?

People.

You.

Those folks
over there.

They're your
parents, right?

It's my little
brother's birthday.

We're here for a picnic.

Nice balloon.

Well, you tell
your little brother

Happy birthday from me.

And who knows,

Maybe I'll see you
again sometime.

I don't know.

I mean, yeah, yeah,
it looks like him.

It's just hard to tell.

I saw his face
in a balloon.

It's just hard
to say for sure.

But the essence
is there, right?

The shaved head,
the beard...?

Yeah.
All right,

I'll get this
distributed internally,

See if we can't narrow down
who this guy is.

Uh... Maybe...

We should mention the accent.
What accent?

You never
mentioned
an accent.

Well, last night was
the first time I ever
heard him talk.

What kind of accent?

It was kind of southern,
kindf... Weird.

Yeah, I'd say
we should include that.

Joe. Good you're here.

Listen, would you, uh, mind
joining us in here for a second?

Keith and I?

Please, joe,
take a seat.

I'm sorry.

What? Something
you wanted to add?

Okay, now, we've got
a situation here, gentlemen.

I had breakfast this morning
with our friends from the dod,

And I offered a formal apology
to colonel reidy.

I explained to him
that keith here

Was struggling with...

Several crises

In his personal life,
that he showed up

Yesterday, despite
being ordered not to,

That he was under
the influence

Of intense antidepressants
and antipsychotics.

Now, the colonel offered
that he's had some experience

With family members who
have been highly medicated,

And he offered us
the opportunity to return.

With millions of dollars
invested in research

And almost
a hundred jobs at stake,

I, of course,
accepted his offer.

So...

I need the two of you
to work together,

To come up with a
joint presentation,

One that you're both
comfortable with.

Now, I've made it
very clear to keith here

That I really don't give a damn
who came up with the science

That makes this fuel possible.

I own it.

So I want the two of you
to go back in there and be

The lovebirds that
I know you're both
capable of being,

And I want you
to sell it.

I want you to sell it
like our lives depend on it.

Because frankly... They do.

With all due respect,
I'd rather not.

With all due respect,
I don't care.

Believe me, I'd send keith
back in there by himself

If I could, but the chance
of him being seen

As anything other than
a lunatic at this point

Was completely
destroyed yesterday.

He is a lunatic.

He's your lunatic.

Count me out.

Hey, joe.

I'm not a lunatic.

I have a bipolar disorder.

Okay?

So...

Usually I can keep it
under control with medication.

Uh, the problem is,

The pills I take,
they-they slow me down,

They dull my thinking.

And normally,
that wouldn't be a problem--

You know, I'm pretty smart,
even on medication...

But this-this light fuel thing

Just...

I knew that the only chance
that I had of cracking it

Was if I took myself
off the meds.

So I did.
Not withstanding

My candor with him this morning,
the dod is unaware

Of the chronic nature
of keith's condition.

Believe me... They'd never
continue to give him

The necessary security
clearances if they were.

I need someone--

We...

Need someone
to help us.

To help keith...

...Put this over.

It would mean
a great deal to me.

It would mean a great
deal to the company.

As a matter of fact,
I would like to draw up

A new contract for you
this afternoon,

One that's more commensurate
with your new level of...

Responsibility.

So, what do you say, Joe?

Whatcha gonna buy me?

That's not funny.

Come on, honey,
it's a raise!

It's a promotion.

It's supposed to
make you happy.

Hey, I'm happy
about the money.

I just don't
like the idea

Of being paid to be this...
This guy's chaperone.

Which is what I am.

Oh, come on, there's
more to it than that.

Don't worry, okay?
I'm not gonna turn
down the money.

I can't; not with a new
mouth to feed around here.

Oh, you should have
seen her today--

Working with the police,
spending time with people,

Having lunch with everybody.

I mean, I actually
sort of see her come out
of herself a little bit.

Oh, well, that's nice, allison.

Ah, please don't rain
on my bad news about me

Getting a job
with the good news

About this girl
that I... Barely know.

That's, uh, that's impressive.

It's like listening
to myself on tape.

Well, you didn't say anything.
You know

There's a limit to what you
can do for this girl, right?

And I'm worried
that you're gonna be

Bumping up against her
really soon.

You know, she's
getting healthier, joe.

She is changing.

I can see it.

Well, you've had her
for a few days,

And the world's had
her for 18 years.

Problems like hers don't
just go away overnight.

And at the end of the day,
it's not your job to fix them.

Woman
Paging dr. Bender.
Paging dr. Bender, please.

Man
You're rushing.
Don't rush.

I'm rushing
'cause my shift is
over, mr. Thigpen.

Your shift is over, too.

You're the only
man I know

Spends all day
taking people's blood,

Soon as you're off work,
anytime you're able,

Can't wait to give it.

I'd think you'd get
enough of this 9:00
to 5:00 every day.

That's the difference
between you and I.

I love blood.

Oh, it's just
so remarkable.

Things it can do.

Think about it.

You put that
needle in my arm

And that little bag down
there fills up with my blood,

With a part of me,

Who knows where
it's gonna go.

Could be anywhere.

I could be anywhere.

Extraordinary, really,

All the times I've donated.

You know, there are dozens
of people out there

Walking around with my blood,

With the essence
of me inside them?

And I have records
on all of them.

They know nothing about me.

But I make it my business

To know everything
I can about them.

Where they're living.

How the life...

I've made it possible for them
to continue is going.

For them, it's a completely
anonymous transaction.

But for me...

It's so intimate.

I wonder if they ever think
about where it came from.

No!

Hey, hey,
you all right?

I've been waiting
for you to wake up.

Hey, listen, listen,
I think I figured it out.

I think I know why you
dream the way that you do.

Jennifer?

I had a dream, too.

He did it.

Allison, he killed
that family,

The one that I saw
in the park.

They're all dead.

Okay. Okay.

It's okay, it's okay.

It's all gonna
be over soon.

No, it's not!

He's never gonna stop
what he's doing!

He is.

I know his name.

I think I know how he
became a part of you.

And after tonight,
I don't think

You're ever gonna be dreaming
through his eyes again.

Okay. It's okay,
it's okay.

I was right?

They're dead, aren't they?

The police just got there.

He killed them last night.

Posed them in their backyard.

It's all almost over, Jennifer.

We got his name,
we've got his face--

We're gonna catch him.

It's just a matter of time
at this point.

Jennifer?

Do you think I could
get it taken out?

I'm sorry, what-what's that?

The blood?

Maybe they could
take it out.

Have you ever heard
of anything like that,

An operation or something?

Allison.

Take a look at this.

This guy look familiar?

that's him.

Name's Jonathan Thigpen,
he's had a couple

Of different addresses
registered with the dmv.

Most recent one's
in an apartment in glendale.

I'm gonna head over,
and I'll call you, okay?

You never accepted
my apology.

That's all right;
I don't blame you.

What do you want, keith?

That girl from
the twilight movies.

But that's not gonna happen.

I think I need to be
my own boss.

I think I need to
live in a world--

Professionally,
I'm talking about--

Where I have more control
over the pressure.

I resigned this morning.

What?!

I resigned. Yeah.

I went and talked to dan,
shared my thinking.

He gets it.

I have to agree to some
non-compete language,

But, uh, he's gonna spring me.

I'm sorry.

I mean, I'm happy for you
if that's what you want.

I told him to make you me.

Minus the medication,
obviously.

I think you'd do a good
job at running this place.

Are you sure?

I'm not edison
or curie or jobs.

I mentioned that to him.

He seemed to understand.

Hi, lee.

No, she's right here.

I brought her home so she
could try to get some rest.

He's gone?

Well, it's just
a matter of time.

Let's talk later.

He's gone, isn't he?
He got away.

For now.

The police are
going to get him.

Maybe.

But I've been
thinking about it.

Even if he does go
to jail forever,

I still have his blood
inside me.

What happens when
I fall asleep?

Do I get to dream about the
walls of his prison cell

For the next 50 years?

I don't know.

I mean, whenever I dream
about something like this,

After they catch the person,

After the person is no longer
a danger to anyone else,

The dreams stop.

That is what I'm hoping
happens for you.

But I'm not really like you,
remember?

I wasn't born with this.

I see these things

Because I'm carrying a little
piece of this killer inside me.

And that's not going to change
when they arrest him.

And an hour later,
they bring down a key.

Keith's office is my office.

Oh, honey!

I know, it's nice.

It's got windows
and a couch.

They've already set up
an appointment for me

To go back and pitch to
the department of defense.

I got to tell you, I worry about
keith out there all by himself.

I don't think he quite
realizes what he's in for.

Mom! Dad!

I had $40 of babysitting
money in there,

And then I got out of the shower
and it's not there.

Are you sure you didn't
put it somewhere else?

Positive.
And why are you doing this?

Why are you protecting her?
We all know who took it.

Hey, hey, hey, ariel,
come on.

We don't know
anything yet.

Okay, fine.

I'll talk to jennifer
about it.

Ariel.

Wow, I didn't realize it was
going to be this easy.

She's gone.

Nice, huh?

Well, the cash we keep in
here for emergencies is gone.

You better check
your purse.

This doesn't
make any sense.

It makes all the sense
in the world.

You invited a thief
into our house.

She stole from us.

That's what thieves do.

Everybody all right?

Quite a ride, huh?

Hope you didn't
get jostled too much.

Policeman
Sir, you want to turn
around slowly

And show yourself, please?

Sorry to startle you, sir,

But you're going to need
to move your vehicle.

This road is private property.

The owner called it in.

Oh, my goodness.
I'm sorry.

I had no idea.

Hey, no harm, no foul.

We're a little out of the way
for someone like you.

You, uh, you got anything
good in there?

I'm sure there's something
there you're gonna want.

Why don't you
take a look?

Ooh, what the...

Oh, my...

No more.

No more.

No more.

Hi.

Hey, what are
you doing here?

I didn't think you were
going to be here till tonight.

Well, you've been here for,
like, 13 hours,

So I thought maybe
you could use a break.

Any news?

She's been like this all d.

She hasn't moved. She hasn't

Opened her eyes.

That hers?

Yeah, it's her journal.

I've been reading it
to see if maybe, uh,

She wrote about somebody
who was in her life

Before the accident.

Somebody I should call.
Somebody who should be here.

And?

Mm. Okay.

You, go on.

Go home. Up, up.

Get some food.
Get a little rest.

Clean up.

I'm going to be here till
you're ready to come back.

Okay?

I don't understand--

A truck like that
with a refrigeration unit?

I mean, how many
of those are there?

How hard can that be
to track down?

Scanlon
Yeah, well, according
to the dmv,

Jonathan thigpen isn't
the registered owner

Of any vehicle,
let alone a truck.

Whatever vehicle you
and jennifer saw him in,

We have to assume it was either
stolen or purchased illegally.

What about that policeman?

There must have been
tire tracks nearby.

There were, but that still
doesn't tell us

What the truck
actually looks like.

You see the problem here,
don't you?

Great, it's starting to rain.

Really? Not a cloud
in the sky here.

Hey, you still there?

I'm going to have
to call you back.

You know where to find me.

Scanlon
Hey, long time, no speak.

It still raining where you are?

No, it's suddenly very clear.

And not just the weather.

Go! Go! Go!

Go!
Go!

go! Go! Go!

Watch it!
Hold the line!

Hey.

Welcome back.

You've been unconscious
for a couple days.

Oh, it's so nice
to see your eyes open.

That man, the... The one
that we've been looking for?

I think he's dead.

I-I think that
he shot himself.

Yeah, day before yesterday.

Looks like you're going
to be fine, by the way.

I think this means that
all of those bad dreams
you've been having--

The ones that you've been
seeing through his eyes--

They're over.

So any bad dreams you
have from here on out,

They're your doing.

I stole from you.

You and your kids.

I know.

As soon as I get out
of here, I...

I'll figure out a way
to pay it all back.

I know that, too.

Hey, you know what?

First, we've got
to get you better.

Then, we've got to get you
in touch with some people

Who know how to help you
put your life back together.

Get your education going
again, help you get a job,

So you're not
living on the street.

Sorry.

I don't know who
those people are.

I don't know how
to do any of that.

Hey, I don't either.

But I have it
from an unimpeachable source

That it is going to happen.

It's all going to work out.

You're going to be just fine.

What "unimpeachable source"?

Your mom.

She told me
so many things.

But the most
important was...

...She wanted you to know
how sorry she was

To leave you all alone.

Sorry that you suddenly
had to fend for yourself.

But more important,

She wanted you to know
that in the moment

Right before she died,

She saw you pass over her.

And she has been
watching you ever since.

She will always
be with you.

So live your life
like it matters.
