PSI Factor: Chronicles of the Paranormal (1996–2000): Season 1, Episode 14 - Forbidden North, The/Reincarnation - full transcript

These stories are inspired
by the actual case files

of the Office of Scientific
Investigation and Research.

Let's go!

Okay boys, get your gear.
We're heading back to camp.

Jacquard !
Jacquard !

- Boss ?
- We're heading back.

Yeah, I'll be there in a minute.

Don't be long. It's getting dark.

Come on, you sucker!

Come on, let's move !
Let's go !

Damn tree huggers !



Hey guys !

Give me a hand !
Help me!

Guys !

Somebody give me a hand!

No!

No!

No!

God, no!

Please, no!

There is a a well-known legend
about giant ape-like creatures

roaming the woods of the Pacific
Northwest, walking upright

and exhibiting a high
degree of intelligence.

Sightings, photographs, film and video footage,
as well as footprint molds and hair samples,

all comprise compelling evidence that might
indicate the Sasquatch could really exist.



A man-beast, not quite simian,
and not quite human.

Something strangely in between.

We gotta punch our way to
the ridge before first snow,

and that idiot's gonna put
us way behind schedule.

Jacquard probably just got drunk as
a politician and wandered off, boss.

We've all been up here too long.

Yeah, well,
we ain't goin' home until the job's done.

Three huggers or not.

Over here, boss !

You got him ?

Jacquard ?

Jack ?

Jack?

I'll kill you, son-of-a-bitch !

He's alive, boss.

Looks like he ran into a little
present from our protestors.

Cut him down.

I saw it! I saw it right here!

He came right after me!

Saw what, Jacquard ?

The Bigfoot!

Right here in real-life goddamn life!

Hey, there's nothing funny here!

I swear to God if you've been boozing again,
I'm gonna ship you back to Nelson tomorrow.

I'm not lying, boss.
He came right up to me growling.

I must have been seven feet tall,
but with a goddamn inch.

Hey, boss.
I think you better take a look at this.

I told you, real as goddamn life.

Don't let anybody touch anything.
The company's gonna want to look at all this.

Get out of here!

Go home, you tree killers !

Get out of here !

Case file number 260140,
case manager Connor Doyle.

We've arrived at a remote
road building site

to investigate several claimed sightings
of a humanoid animal in the area.

Our objective is, if possible, identification
and observation of the creature.

That certainly was a nice situation.

Always is when big business
meets mother nature.

Come on, they're just building a road
to access a hydro dam 200 clicks east.

Oh, just the road.

Took the last pristine
habitat of several species.

Advanced security reports say that the
conflict is intense, but so far peaceful.

The company's bringing in more lawyers!
The cops weren't enough!

Save our trees! Save our trees!
Save our trees! Save our trees!

I tell you, Professor, you're on a fool's
errand and you're not the only fool around.

How long have the protesters been here?

After about a month after we did,

they tamed themselves to trucks when
we tried to get in here to set up camp.

They haven't gone since,
and I don't expect them to either.

Now they're putting spikes in the trees.

See, some of the more
radical environmentalists

are putting iron spikes in the
tree trunks to stop chainsaws.

They pitched the chain
right off in mid-cut.

Jacquard hit one the night that we...

... he saw the creature.

What exactly did you see when you
were out there looking for Jacquard ?

A big animal,
walking upright through the trees.

What, was it a bear, perhaps?

i don't know what i saw i
didn't get a good look at it.

But you all saw something...

Gentlemen, nobody's come this far into
the valley to build a road before.

The hydro company asked me to find the
toughest team of workers i could find.

Half of them wanted to go on that day. J had
off of them bonuses just to stick around.

What the hell else was i going to do ?

Damn tree huggers !

They laid that trap for me.

And trust me, you don't want to be
hanging from a tree like some fool

when that thing comes looking for dinner.

So it came right up to you.

Like a kodiak bear wanting
to rip your head off.

There's no bear I know looks at you
straight in the eye like this one did.

Didn't attack, it just left you alone ?

I was so scared I must have passed out.

Must have thought I was dead or something.

I haven't seen one of these
since I was in the Boy Scouts.

Poor bugger hung here for two hours.

At least he's alive.

Yeah, this is a professional job.

Whoever did this knew
what they were doing.

And had a size 28 shoe.

Those are big tracks there, LQ.

Yeah, but look, I studied these big foot
tracks from all over the Pacific Northwest.

I've never seen this before.

What? Tracks this big ?

Two distinct sets of tracks in one place.

Could be there's more than
one creature out here.

Oh boy !

I'm not buying it.

The Bigfoot is just a hoax cooked up by
the construction company to scare us off.

It's just fiction.

What about something cooked up by
you to scare off the road crew?

Look, I would never risk our
movement's credibility like that.

We're going to win this battle through
protest and raising awareness.

Hearts and minds, Professor.

The Foreman Rennquist
claims that your people

planted iron spikes in the trees
to destroy their equipment.

No one in my organization
was stoop that low.

What about someone
outside your organization?

We don't work for Rennquist or the company.
We're independents.

All right, there were two wingnuts
we tossed up three weeks ago.

Where'd they go?

Deeper in the bush.

Has anyone seen your beast,
it's them.

It seems Brad and Nancy are pretty
adept at living off the land.

I bet they haven't gone too far.

That's far enough !

Good instincts.

Okay, you've got our attention.

Are you Brad Harper ?

Stay right where you are !

We just want to talk, that's all.

We've got nothing to say to you.

Relax, Brad, they're just Bigfoot hunters.

You don't seem surprised to see us.

I figured Mullen would crumble
under any pressure.

So we have to be careful out here.

What exactly are you doing out here ?

Those hydro Nazis are trying
to destroy this forest.

- We're gonna stop them.
- By any means necessary ?

Yeah.

This planet alert whimps are going nowhere.

- At least here we can take the fight to them.
- Brad...

Planet alert would prefer to write
pamphlets and sign petitions,

while the ecology of this
whole region is being raped.

- We're making a stand out here.
- We're not here to take sides.

Hey, if you're not part of the solution...

We're here to do research, that's all.

Research is why they put the road up here.

This is sacred land, home of the
Chehalis tribe, home of the Sasquatch.

No one's supposed to be here.

Physiological and psychological
tests of the witnesses

reveal nothing to suggest that
they're lying about what they saw.

Although Brad and Nancy wouldn't cooperate.

I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't
trust their own mother, they're so paranoid.

Regardless, we still have enough
circumstantial evidence to move forward

under the assumption that someone or
something is even deeper in the woods.

Well, we lifted casts of two sets of prints.

Both of them are too large to be
any animal indigenous to the area,

and they're definitely not the bear family.

They're closer to primate in bone structure.

Cooper, what is it?

These two tracks differ in detail.

They're very close to other Bigfoot
prints we've seen over the years.

Are they both real?

Both prints indicate a human-based walking style,
impossible to replicate without real movement.

We've also collated all the Bigfoot
information gathered over the last 50 years.

It seems there's two
rules about the creature.

One, it's a hominid of unknown species,
and two, it's always been spotted alone.

We got two sets of tracks here.

Well, unless it's a male and a female pairing,
or it could be a mother and her offspring.

What happens if you
cross into its territory?

It could get ugly.

Axon, this is Doyle. You copy?

This is Axon, I copy.

What's the position ?

200 meters westy and closing.

No readings on the scans.

Doyle!

I got motion ahead.

Through the trees, faint,
moving at 10 kilometers an hour.

Human?

Maybe. Two meters in height,
three meters, I can't get a fix.

Charles!

I'll bring the medical team.

I saw it!

We're going to get you some help.

I saw it! I saw it!

Check the tape.

Case log update.

After coming across an injured
environmentalist in the nearby woods,

we've secured video footage which may help
reveal what is roaming the forests in this area.

The witness, Nancy Byatt,
remains in shock in our medical lab.

It appears authentic.

We sent the original back
to HQ for verification.

Any sign of her friend?

Nothing.

He's either gone, or he knows these
woods better than your average bear.

What about Nancy?

Can't we regress her,
find out what happened?

According to our psychologist, her current state
of shock would make regressing her dangerous.

We have to wait until she comes around
and get over whatever it was she saw.

The footage suggests that she was filming
one creature when a second one attacked her.

We tried to enlarge some of the images,
but they're too grainy to identify anything.

But we did find more prints at the site,
both light and heavy.

You know, what might help,
is an aerial survey of the terrain.

Get a better idea of what's on it.

Get started on it.

I want to look into any aboriginal
legends surrounding this creature.

They may help us explain
why this is happening.

We need some answers. Soon.

Something in the tool shed.

Jacquard, give me the gun.

Boss !

This is going to push my schedule
back at least another month.

Damn Green Movement punks.

The cops are going to
come and get them today.

Think protesters did this?

What, are you saying it was a creature?
Because I ain't buying it.

I don't know.
You said you saw it yourself.

Look, I saw something.

We got to hunt it down.

It's coming into the
compound at night now.

Just a matter of time before it comes
into the camp, rips one of us apart.

Jacquard, the company says...

Oh, the company says.

Look, the company sent us into
this creature's territory.

And if we ain't leaving,
then let's at least hunt it down.

Nobody's hunting anything down.

Oh, is that a fact?

Well, tell me why not, science boy.

Because you don't have a hunting license.

Now this is our investigation.
We will decide how to proceed.

You let us handle it.

Not bad, huh ?

Almost case manager material.

Unless of course they find out all
we have are tranquilizer dart guns.

Professor, talk to them.

They move us out, they can do
anything they want to the forest.

I have no mandate to interfere
in this dispute, i'm sorry.

You know we didn't do this.

To the police you do have a motive.

You want to see the
construction of the road stop.

You're right. I'm not sorry about
the damn construction equipment,

but we had nothing to do with it.

The innocent always get blamed for the
sins of the rich and powerful, Professor !

Give us a second.

If there's some kind of creature out there,

I hope they march right into its face.

Why ?

Trees can't fight back.
Sounds like this thing can.

Stories...

Well, the stories say the Sasquatch
lives in the hidden ground.

The sacred ground,
where even the Chihalas can't go.

He's supposed to be the
spirit of a great warrior.

He helps the forest survive by
protecting it from people like me.

Do you believe these stories?

Hey, I got miles to feed.
I need this job.

I might be a little out of touch
with the traditions of my tribe.

I'm a good father, you know ?

I mean these stories...

They're supposed to be just that.

And, every now and then,

you got to wonder that maybe a story exists.

Because what it's saying is true.

Whatever he saw, has caused him to
reassess his entire belief system.

Connor, how old is this Chihalas legend?

It's ancient.

The Chalice aren't the only North
American tribe with a Bigfoot legend.

I think it's significant to
note that almost every culture

has some mythical creature
that acts like a missing link

between them and their
proto-human ancestors.

The aerial and environmental assessments

show a limited amount of animal life to sustain a
creature as large as the one we're talking about.

Yeah, if the Bigfoot is as
large as we suspect it is it,

would have depopulated the
entire area if it only ate meat.

So it's probably an omnivore.
It's anything and everything.

What about the creatures movement?

Well, there are a million places that they could
hide or roam about freely without being detected.

These patterns here indicate an area
where the foliage is less dense.

You know... Peter, it is possible for an
animal this large to create worn down paths.

Well, or or patterns of movement, at least.

This would be a good place to start looking.

Testimony ?

Tracks it's hard to dismiss.
This is a longtime hoax.

The rate of Bigfoot sightings in this part of
North America is the highest in the world.

So, do we accept these ancient warnings
of a man-beast guarding the forest ?

If we heeded every ancient warning,

we'd be out of a job pretty fast,
wouldn't we?

More tracks.

Leading north.

Heavy or light ?

Light and heavy.

Looks like we found our legend.

Too late by the looks of it.

It's not quite as big as
I thought it would be.

Cooper ?

What is it ?

- It's human !
- A fake ?

Oh great !

His tactics got him killed.

What throw that heavy machinery around?

What attacked Nancy?

Probably the same thing that killed him.

Whatever it was, it was bigger than him.

A lot bigger.

It was Brad's idea.
He knew someone who could make the suit.

It was the perfect way to get
rid of the construction crew.

He thought that...

If he could make a video and leak
it to the media, they'd back off.

I was filming Brad and this this animal burst
in from the right, hit me across the face.

I don't remember what happened next.

Final case log entry.

After Nancy by it emerged
from her state of shock,

we were able to learn
what we had suspected

since we first encountered her
and Brad Harper in the woods.

They had executed a hoax to try to scare off
the construction crew, with tragic results.

Harper's fatal injuries appeared consistent
with an attack by some predatory creature,

most likely a grizzly bear.

Ironically, due to a prolonged
delay in the completion schedule,

construction has ceased
indefinitely in the region.

As to the evidence suggesting a second larger
creature, no further traces were found.

Connor Doyle, out.

As nature retreats before man, new insects
and even mammals continue to be discovered.

In 1995, a hitherto unknown species of deer
was found in an isolated area of Vietnam.

Findings like this clearly mean
that we should not cease our search

for elusive mysterious and possibly
very genuine primal creatures.

Perhaps the Sasquatch is
another unknown animal species

whose existence is only
waiting to be verified.

So you think I could have been a
king or something in my past life?

We'll see, Mr. Lindenauer.

Yeah, right.

If I was a king, I'm sure
I was a real nasty one,

probably did all kinds
of bad things to people.

Now, why would you say that?

Well, I must have done something to deserve
all the crap I've had to live with, right?

I hope that you are doing this because
you think it's going to help you,

not because it'll give you an excuse.

Well, to tell you the truth,
I'm doing this for Annie.

She's become obsessed with
it since she's had it done.

She's really the only thing in my
life that means something to me.

It's my fifth birthday.

My parents are there,

blowing out the candles on my birthday cake,

not watching me.

They're fighting.

They're yelling loudly.
Everyone's watching them.

No one's watching me.

I want you to go back farther now.

Go back to when you
were just two years old.

What are you doing?

Playing in the kitchen.

There's a kettle whistling on the stove.

There's no one there but me.

Relax, Garth.
You're okay.

Everything's okay.

Relax.

I want you to go even farther back now,
to the time before you were born.

Go back, Garth.

Back.

Farther.

Where are you?

In a hospital room.

What's your name?

Ian Vethamany.

How old are you?

I'm 80.

Do you know what day it is?

Chicken salad for lunch.

It's Friday.

Friday, July 13th.

What year is it?

2040.

Are you sure?

Absolutely.

It says so right there on my comm screen.

July 13th, 2040.

Okay.

Let's go back farther.

Go back to 1995.

October.

Where are you?

Walking down Michigan
Avenue in downtown Chicago.

It's a pretty good day outside.

Got about 20 minutes to my next meeting.

Just checking myself out
in the window in my office.

I need an hair cut.

Past life regression under hypnosis

has been explored by some therapists
with varying degrees of success.

Now in this research,

some people claim to have traced back

and discovered who they might have been
in a previous incarnation.

But what if hypnosis revealed
a parallel existence?

Explaining this perplexing phenomenon

was the challenge in the
following case of two men

who seemed to be experiencing
intersecting lives.

A lot of the guys think I'm running
some sort of circus sideshow here.

Now how long have we known each other, Lisa?

About ten years?

For my mind,
what you do is very important and legitimate.

You'll see.

He can predict the future.

New world order,
people flying around on anti-gravity devices.

Regress him.
You'll see.

You said you haven't told Mr. Lindenauer
about the unusual nature of his past life.

No, I thought it might be damaging to him.

I agree.

I would like keep this
investigation covert.

Well, I'll simply tell Garth
that Anton's an old colleague

who's interested in the
regression procedure.

Well, we do use brain mapping technology.

Don't worry.

Lindenauer's not the type
who asks too many questions.

Good.

Anton will inform you
about the rest of our procedures.

Let's get started this afternoon.

What year is this?

2001.

Who are you?

Ian Vethamany.

Where are you?

I see bars.

I'm in jail.

Why?

Five years ago as an investment broker.

I made a few personal
investments that went sour.

That's not
illegal.

Well, it is when you
borrow your client's money

and invest it on your own behalf.

This Vethamany sounds
like a real swell guy.

You mean,

Lindenauer actually
remembers being Vethamany?

Anton regressed Lindenauer backwards through
his own life into what should be his past life.

And yet, somehow,

he's able to remember
what is actually the future.

Okay.

I want you to go back even farther.

Back to 1995.

It's the fall.

Leaves are changing and it's
the morning of October the 26th.

What's happening ?

Listen to radio on the way to the office.

Major earthquake in Chile this morning.

Panthers beat the Leafs six to one.

Man, I'm in trouble.

Why ?

Goal took another nosedive.

Wasn't supposed to happen.
Marty told me it was a lock.

Dammit !

Okay, Garth.

I want you to wake up slowly.

And when you do,

you're not going to remember anything
that we've talked about.

I knew I should have made that bet.
6-1 Panthers, just like Lynn never said.

Ian Vethamany is alive and living
at 355 Armory Lane Chicago Illinois.

He's 35, married, no children.

He's an advisor at Tillwood and Brock,
a midsize investment firm.

This came over the wire service.

A quake measuring 6.8 on the Richter scale
hit Santiago Chile just about an hour ago.

We could have warned them.

But there's no way of knowcing that the information
we had would be correct.

Nor can we say if it would
have been right to act on it.

How can you say that?

If Lindenauer really can see the
future through Ian Vethamany,

we could be getting into
a very dicey situation.

Without wanting to sound
overly dramatic here

we could also be on the verge of
discovering the very fabric of our existence.

I'd say that was dramatic.

We'll proceed very slowly.

We must all understand the
dangers of knowing the future.

We can't possibly predict the
consequences of altering the events.

Case log update.

After completing 15 sessions
with Garth Lindenauer,

we've discovered there may
be three intersecting lives.

We're proceeding to attempt
contact with Ian Vethamany.

We're hoping to lure Vethamany into
a regressive hypnosis session,

in the belief that understanding the
connection between these two men

is the key to something even
greater than we may have suspected.

That's him.

Double check !

Copy that !

You guys getting this back there ?

Video link is up

and I have visuals on Vethamany.

Take Lindenauer back to the present
day in Vethamany's life

and recount exactly what's about to happen.

All right, Garth,
let's go back to October 1995.

It's October the 27th, it's in the afternoon
and you're walking down Michigan Avenue.

I'm about the 2300 block,
headed toward the newsstand.

Man !

Gold went down again.

It doesn't turn around soon, I'm fried !

Oh, if I could just get my hands
on a little more cash flow,

I could...
I could climb back on top of things.

Of course there's always Trisha's jewelry.

Who's Trisha ?

Now my spoiled rotten witch of a wife.

Man ! Something tells me I'm
never gonna own one of those now.

What ?

The blue convertible just drove by.

Oh !

Man !

I'd trade Trisha straight
up for one night with her.

You're right, Mr. Lindenauer.

She's hot !

What a charmer this guy is !

Vethamany or Axon ?

Okay. I'm going in.

Okay.

Good luck !

That's what, I need a fresh sucker.

Ff he bleeds green,
I can climb back into the black.

Well, what are you gonna do ?

Beggars can't be choosers.

Ian Vethamany.

You have made the right decision
coming to Tillwood and Brock.

Come on in.

Actually, you're lucky, dr. Thompson.

Normally I wouldn't be able to squeeze
someone in at the last minute,

but, I just happen to have a cancellation.

Mr. Vethamany, I'm not here to
make an investment.

You've been randomly chosen to be part of an
experiment on stress in the workplace.

Excuse me ?

You will be paid if you
choose to participate.

Now, I want you to move
farther into the future.

Slowly, just a few minutes at a time.

What's happening ?

Being arrested.

What ?

I knew it they'd catch me !

They're handcuffing me.

Donner, Axon here.

Linda and I were saying that Vethamany is
gonna be arrested in approximately ten minutes.

Connor gets in the way,

he could change everything.

I've got to warn him.

I think that's a good idea.

Long-term projection is really,
say the least, quite stable.

Excuse me.

Dr. Thompson here.

I see.

Okay.
Yeah, I see.

All righty, sorry.
Something very important come up.

We'll get back to this another time.

When ?

I'll get back to you.

How much were you gonna pay me
for that experiment thing ?

Thanks for your time.

I'll be in touch.

You know, this deal closes this afternoon.

You're gonna miss out.

You know, you could just write me a check
and I can get the whole thing started today.

I'll give you a call.

Well, thanks for coming
in and don't forget to call.

Dr. Dimstick...

Can I help you ?

Good morning.
- Hi.

We're here to see Mr. Vethamany.

Uh, certainly.

After they handcuffed,
you what's happening ?

Leading me out through the office.

Humiliating !
Everyone's staring !

Running down the stairs.

What do you mean ?

Those... Those two guys at
the reception, they were cops.

I know. Tthey're around
really asking questions.

- They're after me.
- I thought they handcuffed you.

And we're leading you out.

No. Now that never happened.
I saw them coming.

I'm getting away.
I think I lost them.

I was afraid of something like this.

Connor, at the experiment we plan never involved
helping Vethamany escape from the police.

Well, we didn't actually help him escape.

No, but if I hadn't left Vethamany's
office as the police were arriving,

he never would have seen them coming.

but now according to Lindenauer's memories,

Vethamany is no longer caught
by the police in the future.

Did the change in Vethamany's life
have any ripple effect on Linderauer ?

Are you suggesting that they
could be linked to karmically ?

That somehow Vethamany's life
could change Lindenauer's ?

I'm just considering all the possibilities.

I interviewed Lindenauer
extensively after the session.

As far as I can tell he left ***
office the same man that went in.

As far as we know the arrrest
in Chicago never happen...

What the hell have you done to me ?

What are you doing ?

I'm gonna kill you both
for screwing up my life !

What the hell are you really doing
in the end of those sessions ?

Garth, what happened to you ?

Annie left me.

Why ?

She saw me for what I really am.

And she was right.

I'm a loser

and I always have been.

No you're not not.

I'm not, huh ?

Two hours after Annie walked on me,
I got laid off.

In one day what little life I had
is completely falling apart.

There are too many coincidences.

The changes in Linderauer's life must be affected
by the change that we made in Vethamany's life.

Are you saying because he never gets
arrested and atones for his crimes,

Lindenauer suffers the consequences ?

Exactly !

If there is some karmic
connection between the two,

then why wouldn't the changes in
Lindenauer's life be retroactive ?

What do you mean ?

I mean, once Lindenauer's
past life was altered,

then his entire life should have
changed right from the day he was born.

But that just seems to have taken
a downward turn since yesterday.

What if the past is written in
stone and can't be changed ?

Well, Lindenauer remembers
Vethamany's future changing.

Yes, but perhaps the future can't change,
because it hasn't actually happened yet.

Well, how is it that Lindenauer can see
the future through the eyes of Vethamany

if that future hasn't happened yet ?

Well, maybe Lindenauer can't see the future.

Maybe he sees a future.

What he sees can be altered.

He sees possibilities, premonitions.

It's like he has a clairvoyance
specific to Vethamany's life.

It's an interesting theory.

So we can all agree that Vethamanyi's life
seems to directly affect Lindenauer's, right ?

That also sounds like a relationship consistent
with certain aspects of reincarnation.

If that is the case,

then how is it possible that they
could both be living at the same time ?

I want this investigation shut down.

I can't do that.

You defy a direct order ?

We may have significantly
altered a man's life.

However unintentional it was, I think we have
a responsibility to try to fix the situation.

ian Vethamany and Lindenauer's life
could have been coincidental.

It's possible.

There's too much at stake.

Too many unanswered questions.

I strongly recommend not
closing the investigation.

I'll give you 24 hours.

Bring Lindenauer into the
loop, explain everything to him.

If he's willing to take the risks,

you may proceed.

But be careful !

I assure you will do our best to
consider every potential outcome

and take every possible precaution.

We'll be watching you carefully.

Let me see if I get this straight.

This Vethamany guy is my past life,
but he's actually alive right now.

That's right.

Now how is that possible?

We don't know.

But you think that what happens
to him can change my life?

Do you know what karma is ?

If you can catch Vethamany and make
him go to jail like you did before,

then Annie will come back to
me and I'll get my job back.

It might not be quite so cut and dried.

We're not sure what'll happen, but you
may be able to help us catch Vethamany.

He is a wanted criminal.

That's pretty wacky stuff.

Hell, what have I got to lose, right?

I'm at the bank.
I'm opening the safety deposit box.

There's bonds

and jewelry.

The last of everything we've got.

Trisha's gonna go ballistic.

I wish I could see the look on her face.

Alpha team to base.
We're ready to move.

Base over.

You were right about Vethamany.

He's laying low.
He's on his way to the First National Bank.

And according to Lindenauer,

he's gonna empty out the contents
of the safety deposit box.

Where's Vethamany gonna be in 15 minutes?

Garth, let's move ahead a little bit.

It's been a few minutes since
you emptied the deposit box.

Where are you?

In the parking garage.

Getting into my car.

I can't believe it.

I actually think I'm gonna make it.

What level are you on?

Four.

Ian Vethamany?

Step out of the car.
We'd like to speak with you for a moment.

Get out of the car.

Investigator down !

This is unit one.

We need an ambulance stat.
Investigator down.

I didn't mean to hurt her.

Is she okay?

She's dead.

I didn't mean to hurt her.

Is she okay?

Oh my God ! I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Doyle, we have a problem here.

Doyle, do you copy?

Axon,

you're breaking up. Stand by.

Ian Vethamanyi?

Step out of the car.
We'd like to speak with you for a moment.

Get out of the car !

- You okay?
- Yeah, yeah.

Nice dive.

Thanks.
Helps when you know what's gonna happen.

Doyle?

Yeah, we're fine.

Lindenauer was right.
So are you.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to hurt anyone.

I swear.

We have Vethamanyi.

Thankfully, Lindenaur's version
of the future can be changed.

Garth...

When you wake up, you're not going to remember
anything that happened in the last three days.

This is what you will remember.

You came to see Dr. Dressler
for regressive hypnosis therapy.

That was three days ago...

We turned Vethamany over to
the Chicago authorities.

He's being held without
bail pending trial.

He seemed extremely remorseful.

In fact, he's vowed to pay back
all the clients that he stole from.

That's quite often.

Criminals harbor an enormous
feeling of guilt for their crimes,

but they won't actually admit it until they're
caught and forced to face what they've done.

Headquarters has officially ordered us to
close all investigation into this case.

What? That's it? We're just heading home?

Let's stick around.

I want to see what effects
we might have caused.

She said that our time apart made her
realize that she couldn't live without me.

You really look terrific, Garth.

Yeah? Look at this.

Hi, Annie.

Hi, Dr. Dressler.

Garth,
where did you get the money for this?

After Annie came back to me,

we took one of those personal investment
courses you see all the time on TV together.

I made a bundle on gold futures.

You believe that? A chump like me?

How did you know to invest in gold futures?

I don't know.
It just kind of came to me out of thin air.

I don't know what I did to deserve all
this stuff, but I'm not complaining.

Thanks. See you.

Did you guys get all that?

Further research by the OSIR uncovered
a third intersecting consciousness

that Garth Lindenauer
and Ian Vethamany shared.

A young boy living in Australia.

What could be the determinants behind
this kind of existential cross-circuiting?

A function perhaps of powerful
random telepathic transmission?

Or maybe as the population
of this earth plane expands,

there just aren't enough
souls to go around?

One thing is certain.

Garth and Ian were connected by a bond
that drastically affected their lives,

past, present and future.

Perhaps we all share a similar connection.
