RAYMOND DALTON,

GINA BEAUMONT,

YOU'RE A VERY
LUCKY MAN, MR, DALTON,

HOW LONG WERE YOU
OUT THERE?

I... I'M NOT...

I'M NOT SURE,

WHERE YOU COMING FROM,
ANOTHER ENCLAVE?

I DON'T KNOW,

WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER?

ANYTHING?

IT'S ALL...

JUMBLED UP... PLACES AND PEOPLE,

I, I CAN'T REALLY PUT THEM
IN ANY KIND OF ORDER,

ALL I REALLY REMEMBER

IS THAT IT WAS COLD
AND THERE WAS THIS STORM,

LIKE... I WAS SO COLD,

GINA,

MAY I SPEAK
WITH YOU PLEASE?

OF COURSE, DOCTOR,

I'LL JUST BE
A MOMENT,

IT'S OKAY,
IT'S WARM IN HERE,

WHAT IN GOD'S NAME
WERE YOU THINKING OF?

I WAS THINKING OF
SAVING HIS LIFE,

SOMEONE HAD TO,

WHAT WILL
VALLE SAY?

ANOTHER
10 MINUTES OUTSIDE

HE COULD HAVE DIED,

OR DOESN'T THAT
INTEREST YOU, DOCTOR?

THE WELL-BEING OF
THE PEOPLE INSIDE

THIS REFUGE
COMES FIRST,

IN PARTICULAR
YOUR WELL-BEING,

DREEDEN,
WHO THE HELL

LOWERED
THE BARRIER?

NOT ME,

THERE WAS A MAN
FREEZING TO
DEATH OUTSIDE,

HE HAD FROSTBITE,
HYPOTHERMIA,

I TOLD HER NOT TO,

PLEASE!

YOU'RE AS MORAL
AS YOU ARE

BEAUTIFUL,
MS, BEAUMONT,

BUT YOU SHOULD HAVE
COME TO ME FIRST,

THOSE ARE THE RULES,

YOU WILL FOLLOW THEM
IN THE FUTURE,

WHAT'S DONE
IS DONE,

INTRODUCE ME TO
OUR NEW GUEST,

HE IS SUFFERING
FROM AMNESIA,

HE REMEMBERS HIS NAME
BUT NOT HOW HE GOT HERE

OR WHERE HE CAME FROM,

PROBABLY A RESULT
OF THE HYPOTHERMIA,

AS CORE TEMPERATURE DROPS,
A VICTIM CAN

SUFFER FROM CONFUSION,
DISORIENTATION,

I'M SANFORD VALLE,

WELCOME TO THE REFUGE,

RAY DALTON,

WHAT DO YOU MEAN
"REFUGE"?

WELL, I BUILT IT BEFORE
THE COLLAPSE,

TOTALLY SELF-SUPPORTING,
SELF-CONTAINED,

COLLAPSE?

YOU REALLY DON'T REMEMBER
ANYTHING, DO YOU?

NOTHING,

WHAT THE HELL WAS IT
I HIT OUTSIDE?

A PARTICLE BARRIER,

A FORCE FIELD, IT PROTECTS
THE HOUSE FROM INTRUDERS,

IMPRESSIVE, ISN'T IT?

HA,

WHERE THE HELL AM I, ALASKA?

NOT QUITE,

TRY FLORIDA,

IT ALL STARTED
AT AN OIL RIG

OFF THE COAST OF
SOUTH AMERICA,

ONE OF MY COMPETITORS
SANK HIS WELL SO DEEP

THAT IT UNEARTHED BACTERIA THAT
HADN'T SEEN THE LIGHT OF DAY

IN 10,000 YEARS,
MAYBE LONGER,

YOU'RE KIDDING,
HOW COULD BACTERIA
CAUSE ALL THIS?

IT DID SOMETHING CALLED
POLYMERIZING THE WATER,

CHANGED IT INTO
A NEW KIND OF WATER,

THE STUFF FREEZES NOW
AT 40 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT

INSTEAD OF 32,

IT DOESN'T START TO THAW OUT

UNTIL THE MERCURY HITS
90 DEGREES,

THIS BACTERIA
SPREAD ALL OVER
THE WORLD?

WITHIN A YEAR, EARTH'S OCEANS
WERE ALL POLYMERIZED,

WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF
A NEW ICE AGE, MY FRIEND,

EVERY SOURCE OF

FRESH WATER TURNED TO ICE,

TEMPERATURES DROPPED
40 DEGREES OVERNIGHT,

POWER PLANTS SHUT DOWN,
CROPS FAILED,

FOLKS WHO DIDN'T DIE
FROM EXPOSURE

DIED FROM HUNGER,

A LONG ENDLESS WINTER,

HOW MANY OTHERS
HAVE SURVIVED?

I CAN'T IMAGINE THERE ARE

MORE THAN 2,000 OR 3,000 PEOPLE
LEFT ALIVE

IN ALL NORTH AMERICA,

NICE,

I TOOK
THE LIBERTY OF

GETTING SOME CLOTHES
FOR YOU,

YOU'RE ABOUT THE SAME SIZE
AS MY SON,

YOUR SON?

THANK YOU,

YOU KNOW HOW MANY OTHERS
ARE AT THIS PLACE?

YOU MAKE EIGHT,

YOU'LL MEET THEM ALL
SOON ENOUGH,

DINNER'S AT 7:00,
MAIN DINING ROOM,

DON'T DRESS UP,

WE THINK OF THIS AS
AN INFORMAL APOCALYPSE,

MR, VALLE,

I CERTAINLY
DO APPRECIATE
YOUR HOSPITALITY,

I KNOW I'M NOT HERE
BY INVITATION,

NONSENSE,
THE MORE THE MERRIER,

WE NEEDED SOME NEW BLOOD,

EVERY TIME YOU DO
AN ACT OF KINDNESS

FOR ANOTHER PERSON,
IT'S A MIRACLE,

MIRACLES DO HAPPEN,

MIRACLES LIVE IN YOUR HEART,

EVERY TIME YOU DO AN ACT OF
KINDNESS FOR ANOTHER PERSON,

IT'S A MIRACLE,

EVERY TIME YOU THROW A LITTLE
LIGHT INTO A DARKENED ROOM,

IT'S A MIRACLE,

MIRACLES DO HAPPEN,

MR, DALTON,
HOW ARE YOU FEELING?

MUCH BETTER,
THANK YOU,

LET ME MAKE
SOME INTRODUCTIONS,

I BELIEVE YOU'VE MET
DR, DREEDEN,

NURSE BEAUMONT,
OF COURSE,

AND MY SON THOMAS,

AND HIS LOVELY WIFE
JUSTINE,

RAY DALTON,

I GUESS YOU'RE THE ONE
I HAVE TO THANK FOR

GIVING ME THE SHIRT
OFF YOUR BACK,

THANK MY FATHER
THE GREAT PROVIDER,

GRACIOUSNESS IS NOT AMONG
MY HUSBAND'S VIRTUES I'M AFRAID,

WELCOME TO OUR LITTLE SANCTUARY,
MR, DALTON,

AND MY LOVELY
FIANCEE, DEBI,

- ONE "B", ONE "I,"
- ONE FOR EACH BRAIN CELL.

SISTER ANGELIQUE, MEET...

WE'VE MET,

YOU DRESS LIKE A WHORE!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
THE FASHION ADVICE,

MISS SACKCLOTH,

ANGELIQUE, PLEASE BEHAVE YOURSELF,
WE HAVE A NEW GUEST.

YES, MR, DALTON,

AREN'T YOU LUCKY
TO HAVE FOUND US,

I MUST APOLOGIZE FOR
MY SON'S RUDE BEHAVIOR,

AT LEAST THOMAS
ACKNOWLEDGES

HIS GREED
AND ENVY,

HOW MANY OF YOU WILL
ADMIT TO YOUR SINS?

GOD'S SAKE!

OWN UP TO YOUR SINS
AND YOU FIND FORGIVENESS,

LET ME HELP,

HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN
SINCE WE GATHERED TOGETHER?

NOT LONG ENOUGH,

QUIET, I THINK THE GOOD SISTER
MAY HAVE A POINT,

BEFORE THE COLLAPSE,

SISTER ANGELIQUE WAS
AN INSPIRATION TO MILLIONS

AND BEST-SELLING AUTHOR,

NOW, OF COURSE,
SHE'S ONE TREE SHORT

OF A HAMMOCK,

WE COULD ALL BENEFIT FROM
THE SISTER'S MESSAGE,

WHAT DID YOU HAVE IN MIND,

ANGELIQUE, SOME SORT OF
A SPIRITUAL CEREMONY?

YES,
YES, EXACTLY,

THEN IT'S DECIDED,
TOMORROW AFTERNOON AT 5:00

RIGHT HERE IN THIS ROOM,

I'LL SEE

ALL OF YOU THEN,

LET HE WHO IS
WITHOUT SIN

MAKE UP FOR LOST TIME,

WELL, I THINK
THE GOOD SISTER

CAN HELP YOU WITH
YOUR BIBLE STUDIES,

SISTER?

SELF-ORDAINED
FOR GOD'S SAKE,

GIVE ME A BREAK,

MS, VALLE, IF YOU
DON'T MIND ME SAYING SO,

I DON'T THINK
YOU'RE SOBER,

IF YOU LIVED IN THIS HOUSE
FOR FIVE YEARS,

WOULD YOU BE?

THOUGH THINGS ARE

BEGINNING TO LOOK UP,

WHY NOT?

WELL, TWO REASONS,

YOU'RE DRUNK
AND YOU'RE MARRIED,

I DON'T THINK THERE'S
MANY DIVORCE LAWYERS ALIVE,

SEE, NOT SUCH A BAD WORLD
AFTER ALL,

YOUR LOSS,

HA, MAYBE,

ALL OF THE GUILT
AND NONE OF THE FUN,

HARDLY SEEMS FAIR,
DOES IT?

GINA, CAN WE TALK?

WHAT DO WE HAVE
TO TALK ABOUT?

WELL, LAST NIGHT,
IT'S NOT WHAT YOU...

MORNING, DARLING.
HUNGRY?

I'VE LOST
MY APPETITE,

YOU ADAPT QUICKLY,
MR, DALTON,

YOU ARE SOME
KIND OF BITCH,

RAY,
I THOUGHT YOU HAD

MORE OF A SENSE OF HUMOR
THAN THAT,

LOST OUR WAY
LAST NIGHT,

DID WE, DARLING?

I KNEW EXACTLY
WHERE I WAS

AT ALL TIMES, THOMAS,
BELIEVE ME,

MORNING, EVERYONE,

THOMAS,
YOU LOOK TIRED,

DID YOU GET
ENOUGH SLEEP?

IT WAS FITFUL,

I HAVE THAT PROBLEM
MYSELF SOMETIMES,

USUALLY
WHEN I SLEEP ALONE,

LAST NIGHT
I SLEPT LIKE A BABY,

JUSTINE,

YOU'RE LOOKING PARTICULARLY
LOVELY THIS MORNING,

WHY THANK YOU,

EXCUSE ME,

DID I SAY SOMETHING
TO OFFEND HIM?

GINA, WAIT,

THIS PLACE ALWAYS
THIS MUCH FUN?

YOU'RE WRONG ABOUT ME,

I DID NOT SLEEP
WITH JUSTINE,

I'D RATHER SLEEP
WITH A RATTLESNAKE,

AT LEAST YOU CAN
HEAR IT BEFORE IT BITES,

WHY DO YOU CARE
SO MUCH

WHAT I THINK?

OUT OF THIS
WHOLE DAMN PLACE,

YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE
I REALLY RESPECT,

I'D LIKE TO HAVE
YOURS TOO,

NOT EXACTLY THE FAMILY
NEXT DOOR, ARE THEY?

ONLY IF YOU
LIVE NEXT DOOR

TO THE MANSONS,

IF YOU DON'T
MIND MY ASKING,

WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?

NOT THAT I'M
COMPLAINING,

I, UM, WORKED
FOR VALLE,

I STILL DO,
I SUPPOSE,

FOR ONE OF HIS COMPANIES?

YES...

YES, THAT'S RIGHT,

HOW LONG AGO DID YOU
COME TO THIS REFUGE?

I DON'T REMEMBER,

IT'S JUST BEEN SUCH
A LONG TIME, I DON'T...

MY OLD LIFE JUST SEEMS
A MILLION YEARS AGO,

SOMETIMES I WONDER
IF IT EVER HAPPENED,

IF THE SUN EVER SHONE
IN THE SKY,

IF THERE WAS...

IF THERE WAS EVER
A SUMMER AT THE BEACH

OR A HOT JUNE NIGHT

OR A WARM SPRING RAIN,

THERE WERE,

AND I REMEMBER THEM TOO,

DO YOU?

YEAH,

RAY, DO YOU REMEMBER
WHO YOU ARE?

I...

I REMEMBER
I MOVED AROUND A LOT,

YOU KNOW, FROM JOB TO JOB,
CITY TO CITY,

I THINK I WAS...

A JOURNALIST

OF SOME KIND,
I'M NOT SURE,

YOU KNOW WHAT?

ALL I REALLY TRUST IS
WHAT I'M FEELING RIGHT NOW,

CHEER UP, DARLING,

THERE'S ALWAYS
THE GOOD DOCTOR,

THANK YOU

FOR COMING
TODAY,

MIRACLES DO HAPPEN,

THEY LIVE

IN YOUR HEART...
SISTER,

EXCUSE ME, WOULD THIS
BE A MIRACLE?

THIS?

OUR BEING HERE ALIVE
WHEN SO MANY OTHERS ARE NOT,

IS THIS A MIRACLE?

IN, IN A WAY, I SUPPOSE,

SO ALL THOSE WHO DIED,

THEY DIDN'T DESERVE
A MIRACLE?

WHENEVER YOU DO
AN ACT OF KINDNESS

FOR ANOTHER PERSON...

IT'S A MIRACLE,

LIKE
MY FATHER

LETTING YOU IN
HERE, YOU MEAN?

HALLELUJAH
FOR THAT,

WHAT ELSE
COULD I DO?

POOR WOMAN HAD
NOWHERE TO TURN,

BECAUSE HER CONGRESSMAN HUSBAND
TOOK SOMEBODY ELSE

INTO THE GOVERNMENT SHELTERS,

WAS SHE YOUNG?

DID SHE DRESS LIKE
A WHORE TOO?

I DON'T BELIEVE THIS,

EVERY TIME YOU THROW...

A LITTLE LIGHT INTO
A DARKENED ROOM...

IT'S A MIRACLE!

PRAISE
THE LORD!

MR, DALTON,
THE SERVICE IS NOT OVER,

I THINK IT IS,

I GAVE HER SOMETHING
TO HELP HER SLEEP,

WE HAVE TO
GET OUT OF HERE,

THERE'S NOWHERE TO GO,

VALLE SAID THERE'S
OTHER ENCLAVES, OTHER REFUGES,

MAYBE,
BUT WHERE?

HOW WOULD WE GET THERE?
ON FOOT?

OVER HUNDREDS, MAYBE
THOUSANDS OF MILES,

THERE IS NO OTHER REFUGE,

NOT FOR US,

THERE IS ONE,

HELLO,
THOMAS,

WE HAVE TO GET
OUT OF HERE,

THIS IS
JUST GREAT,

HOW LONG HAVE YOU
BEEN DOING IT?

SINCE WE MOVED
IN HERE?

EVEN BEFORE THAT,
RIGHT, JUSTINE?

IT WASN'T LONG AFTER
THE WEDDING AS I RECALL,

BITCH!

HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?

IF YOU MOVE,
I'LL BLOW HER BRAINS OUT,

I MEAN IT!

STOP POINTING
THAT THING AT
YOUR WIFE,

IT'S ME
YOU WANT TO
POINT IT AT,

GO ON, GO AHEAD,

I SHOULD HAVE DONE THIS
YEARS AGO

WHEN YOU PUT MOTHER
IN THE HOSPITAL,

YOU DIDN'T HAVE THE NERVE,
YOU STILL DON'T,

SHUT UP!

YOU'VE BEEN A FAILURE
ALL YOUR LIFE,

YOU'RE NOT ABOUT
TO CHANGE,

FOR GOD'S SAKE,
VALLE!

YOUR FINGER ON
THAT TRIGGER, THOMAS,

FEEL THE TENSION THERE?
THAT'S POWER,

YOU'VE BEEN AFRAID
OF IT ALL YOUR LIFE,

YOU RUN AWAY FROM IT,
REJECTED IT,

WHAT WILL YOU DO
NOW THAT YOU HAVE IT?

WILL YOU RUN AWAY AGAIN
OR EMBRACE IT?

BASTARD,

THOMAS, GOD!

SON OF A BITCH!

WHAT THE HELL?

WHAT'S YOUR
PROBLEM, DALTON?

WHATEVER IT IS,
THERE'S VERY LITTLE

THAT CAN'T BE CURED
WITH A DRINK,

SCOTCH?

IT'S THE BEST AVAILABLE,

MY FATHER DOES HAVE
EXCELLENT TASTE,

YOUR FATHER?

DOCTOR,
WHAT HAPPENED HERE?

DOCTOR?

HELL, I BARELY GOT
MY B, A,

DR, DREEDEN, SCOTCH?

AT THIS HOUR,
I THINK NOT,

MR, DALTON,
HOW'S THE MEMORY?

GETTING BETTER?

ACTUALLY, I THINK
IT MIGHT BE GETTING WORSE,

I'M SORRY
TO HEAR THAT,

DO YOU REMEMBER
MY NURSE AT LEAST?

PERHAPS WE SHOULD RUN
MORE TESTS,

MORNING, RAY,

HUNGRY?

LOST OUR WAY
LAST NIGHT,
DARLING?

I KNEW EXACTLY WHERE I WAS,
FRANKLIN, BELIEVE ME,

MR, DALTON,

HOW ARE YOU FEELING?

I DON'T KNOW,

WELL, STILL A LITTLE
DISORIENTED, I UNDERSTAND,

YOU DO REMEMBER
MY FIANCEE ANGELIQUE?

CALL ME "ANGEL,"

OF COURSE, YOU
DO STILL KNOW

THE GOOD SISTER,

GINA,
MY GOD,

SISTER GINA,
HOW ARE YOU?

AS WELL AS
CAN BE EXPECTED,

YOU DRESS LIKE A WHORE,

THANKS FOR
THE FASHION ADVICE,

IF YOU WANT TO RID
YOURSELF OF SIN

YOU HAVE TO
OWN UP TO IT,

LET ME HELP YOU,

ALL OF YOU, PLEASE,

NO, NO, PERHAPS

THE GOOD SISTER HAS A POINT,

WE ALL COULD

LEARN SOMETHING FROM HER,

PERHAPS SOME SORT OF
SPIRITUAL CEREMONY,

NO!

MR, DALTON, SOMETHING WRONG?

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT'S GOING ON,

BUT I'LL BE DAMNED
IF YOU'LL DO IT TO HER!

GINA,
PLEASE,
HOW DARE YOU,

GINA, PLEASE!

DON'T TOUCH ME!

YES, RAY, SHE'S
THE BLOODY VIRGIN MARY,

UNLESS YOUR SEX IS
ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE,

BLASPHEMER,

EVIL, ALL OF YOU,

YOU WALLOW
IN EVIL!

GINA,

DELIGHT IN YOUR WICKEDNESS,
KEEP AWAY FROM ME!

WHAT THE HELL IS
GOING ON HERE?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
"GOING ON"?

YOU KNOW
DAMN WELL...

EVERYBODY IS CHANGING
PERSONALITIES

EXCEPT YOU AND ME,

I'M NOT CAUSING IT,
I BET YOU ARE,

I MUST ADMIT,
I'M INTRIGUED,

NONE OF THE OTHERS HAVE
RESISTED MY ALTERATIONS, WHY YOU?

HOW ARE YOU DOING THIS?

LET'S JUST SAY I CAN,
LET IT GO AT THAT,

I DON'T GIVE A DAMN
HOW YOU'RE DOING IT,

I JUST WANT GINA BACK
TO THE WAY SHE WAS...

HER TRUE PERSONALITY,

WHAT MAKES YOU SO SURE
THAT WAS HER TRUE PERSONALITY?

MAYBE YOU
FELL IN LOVE

WITH A FACADE,
A MASK I CREATED,

MAYBE YOUR BELOVED GINA
IS AS COLD AS MY SON'S WIFE,

I DON'T BELIEVE THAT,

MAYBE WHAT YOU JUST SAW
WAS HER TRUE PERSONALITY,

MAYBE SHE REALLY IS
SISTER GINA,

YOU DON'T KNOW
FOR SURE,

YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING
FOR SURE,

I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU WON'T BEND
TO MY WILL, MR, DALTON,

BUT THE REALITY, THE ONLY
REALITY THAT MATTERS TO YOU,

IS THAT I AM THE MASTER
OF THIS HOUSE,

AND IF YOU STAY HERE,

YOU HAVE TO PLAY
BY THE HOUSE RULES,

IF THAT MEANS WATCHING YOU
JERK THESE PEOPLE AROUND,

YOU CAN FORGET IT,

I'VE JUST DROPPED THE BARRIER
THAT SURROUNDS THE HOUSE,

IF YOU'D RATHER TAKE
YOUR CHANCES OUT THERE,

YOU'RE WELCOME TO TRY,

LET HE WHO IS WITHOUT SIN,
MAKE UP FOR LOST TIME,

YOU'RE DRUNK,

IF YOU LIVED HERE
FOR FIVE YEARS

YOU WOULD BE TOO,

THOUGH THINGS ARE
LOOKING UP,

NOT AGAIN,

NO,

WHY NOT?

BECAUSE I REFUSE TO
PLAY VALLE'S GAMES,

- YOUR LOSS.
- YEAH, MAYBE, MAYBE.

GREAT,

EXCUSE ME, SISTER?

I WANT TO APOLOGIZE
FOR MY BEHAVIOR,

IT WAS COMPLETELY
INAPPROPRIATE,

WELL, I SUPPOSE

YOU'RE NOT A MAN OF
EVIL INTENT, MR, DALTON,

NO,
ABSOLUTELY NOT,

IF GOD CAN FORGIVE
OUR MISTAKES, SO CAN I,

YOUR APOLOGY IS ACCEPTED,

THANK YOU,

I HOPE GOD IS
AS FORGIVING
AS YOU ARE

FOR WHAT I'M
ABOUT TO DO,

YOU'RE INSANE!

THAT HOUSE IS INSANE,

MAYBE IT'S THE SOURCE
OF VALLE'S POWER,

MAYBE THE FURTHER AWAY
FROM IT WE GET,

THE BETTER OFF WE ARE,

I HAVE TO STOP,

I HAVE TO REST,

ALL RIGHT,

DEAR GOD IN HEAVEN,
I'VE NEVER BEEN SO COLD,

PLEASE, TAKE ME BACK,

I CAN'T,

NOT YET, I'M SORRY,

NO SUN,

NEVER
ANY SUN,

SOMETIMES I WONDER
IF IT EVER SHONE AT ALL,

IT'S BEEN SO LONG,

I WONDER IF THERE
REALLY EVER...

WERE SUMMERS AT THE BEACH,

OR HOT JUNE NIGHTS,

WARM SPRING RAIN,

HOW DID YOU KNOW
WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY?

DON'T YOU REMEMBER?

WE WERE STARTING TO MEAN
SOMETHING TO ONE ANOTHER,

CAN YOU FEEL THAT?

CAN YOU FEEL ANYTHING
WHEN YOU LOOK AT ME?

THERE IS NO OTHER REFUGE,

THERE IS ONE,

RAY?

YEAH, OURS,

RAY,

MOVING,
TREMENDOUSLY MOVING,

I WAS GETTING
THROUGH TO HER,

I ALLOWED YOU,

NOTHING HAPPENS HERE

THAT I DON'T CONTROL,
DALTON, NOTHING,

YOU WANT MORE PROOF?

RAY, HAVE YOU MET

MY FIANCEE GINA?

GINA WITH A "G,"

DAMN YOU!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME?

TAKE IT EASY
NOW, MR, DALTON,

YOU'VE BEEN UNDER
FOR QUITE A WHILE,

B, P, 110 OVER 7O,

RESPIRATION
NORMALIZING,

WHAT...

WHERE...

WE FOUND A CURE,
YOU'LL BE FINE,

I THINK WE CAN MOVE HIM NOW,

NO, PLEASE, WAIT,

I HAVE TO GO BACK,

EVERYTHING'S ALL RIGHT,
YOU HAD A BRAIN TUMOR,

YOU WERE PLACED
IN COLD SLEEP

UNTIL IT
COULD BE REMOVED,

YOU'RE GOING
TO BE FINE,

NO, I, I, I WAS IN
A HOUSE IN A STORM,

YOU WERE DREAMING,

JUST RELAX,

THIS WAS MORE
THAN A DREAM...

IT WAS HIS DREAM,

HE, HE... WAS

CONTROLLING...

HE'S STILL DISORIENTED,

NOW LOOK,
YOU'RE GOING BACK

TO SLEEP,

WHEN YOU WAKE UP,
YOU'LL BE GOOD AS NEW,

NO, I HAVE TO...

I WAS NOT HALLUCINATING,
DAMN IT,

PEOPLE DO DREAM
IN COLD SLEEP,

IN FACT, FOR THEIR
PSYCHOLOGICAL HEALTH

WE USE BIO-FEEDBACK
REGULATORS TO ENSURE
MORE VIVID DREAMS,

IT WASN'T
JUST A DREAM,

I WAS CONNECTED WITH
THE OTHERS,

NO, MR, DALTON, IMPOSSIBLE,

WHY?

THE BIO-FEEDBACK REGULATORS
CAN ALTER OUR BRAINWAVES, RIGHT?

WELL, YES, BUT THAT'S
A HUGE JUMP

TO A KIND OF TELEPATHIC LINK
BETWEEN SLEEPERS,

EVEN IF THIS WERE TRUE,
WHY WOULD ONE PERSON

CONTROL THE ENTIRE DREAM?

MAYBE VALLE
KNOWS HE'S DREAMING,

MAYBE THAT ALLOWS HIM
TO MANIPULATE THE OTHERS,

LUCIDE DREAMING,
I'VE HEARD OF IT,

BUT YOU DIDN'T KNOW
YOU WERE DREAMING,

WHY WEREN'T YOU CONTROLLED
LIKE THE OTHERS?

I DON'T KNOW,
MAYBE IT WAS THE TUMOR,

I KNOW THEIR NAMES,
FOR GOD'S SAKE!

WHICH YOU PROBABLY SAW
ON THEIR CHAMBERS

BEFORE YOU ENTERED COLD SLEEP,

JUST WAKE ONE OF THEM UP,

I CAN'T DO THAT,

IT TAKES A FULL DAY TO BRING
SOMEONE OUT OF COLD SLEEP

AND AS THEIR
BODY FUNCTIONS
ACCELERATE,

SO DO THEIR
DISEASES,

AND WITHOUT A CURE
WAITING FOR THEM,

WE SIMPLY CAN'T
TAKE THAT RISK,

MR, DALTON,
YOU HAD A DREAM,

PUT IT OUT OF
YOUR MIND,

YOU'RE WHOLE,
YOU'RE HEALTHY,

YOU HAVE AN ENTIRE LIFE
TO GET BACK TO,

RAY, YOU'RE LUCKY,

I'VE WRITTEN LIVING TRUSTS FOR
PEOPLE TO MANAGE THEIR ESTATES

WHILE THEY'RE IN COLD SLEEP,
SOME ARE IN THERE FOR DECADES,

YOU GOT REVIVED
IN LESS THAN FIVE YEARS,

GET ON WITH YOUR LIFE,

YOU THINK I'D BE
GOOD AT THAT?

ALL MY LIFE I MOVED ON FROM
ONE CITY TO THE NEXT,

NEVER PUTTING DOWN ANY ROOTS,
NEVER WANTING TO,

NOW YOU WANT TO
PUT DOWN ROOTS
IN A DREAM?

SHE ISN'T A DREAM,

LOOK, HER NAME IS
GINA BEAUMONT,

ALL RIGHT,

SHE ISN'T A NURSE,
SHE'S A DOCTOR,

HARVARD MED,

CLASS OF '99,

SHE WORKED IN THAILAND
FOR A YEAR

HELPING PEOPLE WITH
THE OSAKA VIRUS

UNTIL SHE CAME DOWN WITH IT
HERSELF,

EVEN THEN SHE WOULDN'T LEAVE
UNTIL SHE WAS TOLD

IF SHE DIDN'T GO INTO
COLD SLEEP, SHE WOULD DIE,

WHERE THE HELL
DID YOU GET THIS?

I'M A JOURNALIST,
REMEMBER?

I KNOW ABOUT
ALL OF THEM,

I LOOKED THEM UP
ON THE NET,

I FOUND BIRTHDAYS,

I LOOKED UP
ADDRESSES,

LOOK, I PHONED NEW YORK,

I TALKED TO
GINA'S SISTER
AND HER FATHER,

I SPOKE TO TOM'S WIFE,

YOU DIDN'T TRY TO GET THEM
TO THAW THEM OUT?

THEY WOULD HAVE THOUGHT
I WAS CRAZY,

DAVE,

THIS IS THE WOMAN I KNEW,

ALL RIGHT,
I MAY NOT HAVE KNOWN

ALL THE LITTLE DETAILS OF
HER REAL LIFE,

BUT THIS WOMAN,
THIS IS GINA,

SHE WASN'T A DREAM,

I'VE NEVER HEARD YOU SO...

PASSIONATE ABOUT
ANYTHING BEFORE, RAY,

I NEVER HAVE BEEN,

I LOVE HER,

YOU'VE GOT TO HELP ME,

MR, COHEN,

WE HAVE RUN EXTENSIVE SYSTEMS
CHECKS SINCE MR, DALTON AWOKE,

HE OBVIOUSLY
HAD A DREAM,

A VERY VIVID,
A VERY DISTURBING DREAM,

I TOLD YOU,
IT WASN'T A DREAM,

SHE WAS REAL,

YES, I BELIEVED
YOU EXPLAINED
TO MR, DALTON

THAT COLD SLEEPERS DREAM
MORE VIVIDLY THAN NORMAL,

EXACTLY, MR, DALTON
IS SUFFERING FROM

A CRYONICALLY INDUCED
DELUSION OF SORTS,

SO YOU ADMIT

THIS CRYONICALLY INDUCED
DELUSION IS A RESULT OF

YOUR NEGLIGENCE?

I, NEVER SAID THAT,

YOU KNEW SLEEPERS WERE
PRONE TO NIGHTMARES,

YET YOU TOOK NO STEPS
TO GUARD AGAINST IT,

MR, COHEN,
YOU HAVE NO CASE HERE,

WHETHER OR NOT,
I HOPE YOU ARE

READY TO HANDLE
THE PUBLIC FALLOUT FROM THIS

WHEN IT HITS
THE MEDIA,

I SEE,

TELL ME, MR, COHEN,
WHAT EXACTLY WOULD IT TAKE

TO MAKE YOUR CLIENT...

"WHOLE" AS YOU'D SAY,

NOT MUCH REALLY,

I JUST WANT TO BE
PUT BACK INTO COLD SLEEP,

RAY, ARE YOU

ABSOLUTELY SURE
ABOUT THIS?

I'VE NEVER BEEN MORE SURE
OF ANYTHING,

WE'RE READY,
MR, DALTON,

THANKS, DAVE,

HEY, MAYBE SOME DAY
YOU'LL GET TO MEET HER,

WELCOME BACK, MR, DALTON,

DOM PERIGNON, 2002,
JOIN ME?

WHY BOTHER?
THIS ISN'T REAL,

IT'S REAL ENOUGH
TO SUIT MY TASTE,

I LOOKED
YOU UP, VALLE,

MADE YOUR MONEY IN OIL,
BILLIONS IN ASSETS,

DOESN'T THIS ALL SEEM
KIND OF...

LOW RENT IN COMPARISON?

QUITE THE OPPOSITE,

IN BUSINESS YOU EXERT YOUR POWER
INDIRECTLY AT BEST,

YOU KNOW,
SO MANY VARIABLES,

BUT HERE,
HERE I EXERT POWER DIRECTLY,

NO VARIABLES,
NO GO-BETWEENS,

JUST THE APPLICATION OF
TOTAL CONTROL

OVER ANOTHER HUMAN BEING,

THERE IS NOTHING ELSE
LIKE IT,

RECREATIONAL THERAPY
FOR SOCIOPATHS,

LIKE I SAID,
I DON'T LIKE VARIABLES,

AND YOU'VE BECOME
ALTOGETHER

TOO MUCH OF ONE,

WHEN SOMEONE DIES IN A DREAM,

DO THEY DIE IN REALITY?

WHAT DO YOU THINK, RAY?

KILL HIM,

THOMAS, LISTEN TO ME,
THIS IS ALL JUST A DREAM...

YOU'RE NOT A KILLER,

YOU'RE NOT HIS SON,

YOU ARE THOMAS LAWRENCE,
A TEACHER!

HE LIES!

HE WANTS
TO DESTROY
THE REFUGE,

KILL HIM,

YOU HAVE... YOU HAVE A WIFE

AND THREE CHILDREN,

YOUR WIFE'S NAME IS ANNE,

YOUR CHILDREN ARE
DENIS, KIMBERLY, MICHELLE,

YOU'RE NOT
A KILLER,

THIS IS JUST
A BAD DREAM,

KILL HIM!

ANNE!

DENIS,

KILL HIM!

JUSTINE, YOU HAVE
A BROTHER NAMED HOWARD

AND A SISTER THAT DIED,
HER NAME WAS...

MARIE,
MARIE,

HE'S TRYING TO
CONFUSE YOU!

THE SLEEP CHAMBER!

HE JUST WANTS TO DESTROY
THE REFUGE!

GINA,

WE'LL ALL DIE!

DO YOU REMEMBER?

NO, DAMN YOU!

... MEMORIES...

YOU'RE MINE!

... THE PEOPLE YOU LOVED...

I'M TELLING YOU,
HE MOVED!

- IMPOSSIBLE,
- I SAW IT!

SOMETHING WENT WRONG,

LOOK AT THIS,

MY GOD,
HIS BRAIN STEM...

IT SHATTERED,

WE'RE LOSING HIM!

I CAN'T BELIEVE
THIS IS ALL A DREAM,

IT'S OUR DREAM NOW,
NOT HIS,

YOU CAN TELL ALREADY,

LOOK, THE SNOW IS MELTING,
IT'S BEAUTIFUL,

WE'RE TOGETHER,

WHEN YOU LEFT,

WAS IT BECAUSE
THEY FOUND A CURE?

I COULDN'T HELP IT.
I CAME BACK AS SOON AS I COULD,

RAY,

YEAH?

YOU CAN'T STAY,

YOU HAVE TO GO BACK,
YOU'RE CURED,

I'M NOT, I COULD BE HERE
FOR YEARS,

I COULD BE HERE
FOR DECADES BEFORE...

THEY'LL THAW ME OUT
AS SOON AS THEY THAW YOU OUT,

I CAN'T LET YOU DO THAT...
STAY HERE JUST BECAUSE OF ME,

GO BACK,

IF YOU REALLY LOVE ME,
GO BACK TO YOUR OWN LIFE,

YOU DON'T
UNDERSTAND,

LIFE OUT THERE WITHOUT YOU,
THAT'S A DREAM,

YOU AND ME,
THIS IS REAL,

A POET ONCE WROTE,

"IN DREAMS BEGINS
RESPONSIBILITY,"

SO TOO, PERHAPS, WITH LOVE,

WITHOUT DREAMS,

WITHOUT THE HOPE OF
A BETTER LIFE,

A BRIGHTER FUTURE,

IT IS DIFFICULT FOR LOVE
TO FLOURISH,

AND WITHOUT LOVE,
