The Outer Limits (1995–2002): Season 2, Episode 17 - Paradise - full transcript

AND IT'S CALLED

AN OFFENSIVE FOUL...

EXCITING GAME?

UM... NO, NOT REALLY,

CHICAGO IS KICKING
THE HELL OUT OF THEM,

I'M NOT MUCH
OF A BULLS FAN,

GOOD THING
I'M FROM NEW YORK,

YOU A SPORTS FAN?

DEPENDS ON THE SPORT,

MAYBE WE GOT ONE IN COMMON,
WHAT DO YOU LIKE?

HUNTING,



WE DON'T HAVE
MUCH TIME,

IT DIDN'T WORK,

WHAT?

I DID WHAT I PROMISED,

BUT I FAILED,

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

THANK YOU FOR TRYING,

FOR BEING THE ONE,

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG
WITH YOUR TELEVISION,

DO NOT ATTEMPT
TO ADJUST THE PICTURE,

WE ARE NOW CONTROLLING
THE TRANSMISSION,

WE CONTROL THE HORIZONTAL

AND THE VERTICAL,

WE CAN DELUGE YOU
WITH A THOUSAND CHANNELS



OR EXPAND ONE SINGLE IMAGE
TO CRYSTAL CLARITY

AND BEYOND,

WE CAN SHAPE YOUR VISION

TO ANYTHING OUR IMAGINATION
CAN CONCEIVE,

FOR THE NEXT HOUR,

WE WILL CONTROL
ALL THAT YOU SEE AND HEAR,

YOU ARE ABOUT TO EXPERIENCE
THE AWE AND MYSTERY

WHICH REACHES FROM
THE DEEPEST INNER MIND

TO THE OUTER LIMITS,

IT IS SAID
THAT THROUGH OUR CHILDREN

WE ATTAIN
A KIND OF IMMORTALITY,

AN UNENDING CHAIN OF LIFE

IN WHICH MOTHER AND CHILD
ARE FOREVER LINKED,

CARRYING IN TURN
THE BURDEN OF HUMANITY,

IT'S GOING TO BE ONE OF THOSE DAYS,
ISN'T IT?

I JUST TALKED
TO MY SISTER,

IS SOMETHING WRONG?

WHATEVER COULD BE WRONG
IN CINDY'S LIFE?

SHE'S MADE PARTNER,

SHE AND JOHN
JUST BOUGHT A NEW PLACE,

AND NOW SHE'S GOING TO
HAVE A BABY,

THAT'S GREAT,
THAT WILL MAKE
YOU AN AUNT,

I'M HAPPY FOR HER,
I REALLY AM,

BUT IT JUST SEEMS SO UNFAIR

WITH EVERYTHING ELSE
THAT SHE HAS,

THAT SHE CAN HAVE CHILDREN
AND I CAN'T,

WHY CAN'T THAT
HAPPEN TO US?

IT JUST ISN'T IN
THE CARDS FOR US,

BESIDES, WE'RE BLESSED
IN OTHER WAYS,

SHE WANTS ME TO TELL MOTHER

BECAUSE SHE CAN'T DEAL WITH
MOM'S CONDITION,

SHE PROBABLY THINKS YOU CAN GET
ALZHEIMER'S OVER THE PHONE,

GRADY, THAT'S NOT FAIR,

SAM'S READY
TO CUT INTO
THAT GIRL

THAT DIED
AT JIMMY'S,

SURE COULD USE SOME HELP,

SAYS HE'S NEVER SEEN
ANYTHING LIKE IT BEFORE,

MAKE SURE YOU'RE
READY FOR THIS,

IT'S TIME YOU GAVE ME
SOME CREDIT, SAM,

I'VE BEEN A DOCTOR NOW
FOR 10 YEARS,

TRUST ME,
THIS IS NOT

YOUR BASIC KID
WITH THE FLU,

I DON'T WANT ANY
FAINTING IN MY MORGUE,

I CAN HANDLE IT,

OKAY,

JIMMY SAID THAT SHE TRANSFORMED
FROM A YOUNG WOMAN TO THIS

RIGHT BEFORE
HIS EYES,

DON'T SAY I DIDN'T WARN YOU,

WHAT HAPPENED TO
THIS POOR WOMAN?

THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION,

NECROTIZING FASCIITIS,

THE FLESH-EATING DISEASE?

YOU'VE BEEN WATCHING
TOO MUCH TELEVISION,

WHAT ELSE COULD IT BE?

HAVE YOU RULED OUT

ALL THE OTHER
GROUP-A STREPTOCOCCUS?

AS THE CAUSATIVE AGENTS

I'VE RULED OUT ALL BACTERIAL
AND VIRAL INFECTION,

BUT THIS WOMAN WAS RACKED WITH
A BEVY OF OTHER DISEASES

LIKE I'VE NEVER SEEN,

OSTEOPOROSIS, HEART DISEASE,

THREE DIFFERENT KINDS
OF CANCER,

ALZHEIMER'S,

THEN THE CAUSE OF DEATH IS...?

ALL OF THE ABOVE,
AND ALL AT ONCE,

HOW OLD WOULD YOU SAY SHE IS,
CHRISTINA?

WELL, I DON'T KNOW,

JIMMY SWEARS SHE'S ABOUT 25,

BUT TWO OF THE CANCERS SHE DIED OF
ARE NORMALLY VERY SLOW TO DEVELOP,

WHICH POINTS TO AN OLDER WOMAN?

MAKES SENSE,

WELL, IF WE DON'T THINK
IT'S CONTAGIOUS,

WHAT DO WE DO NOW?

I'D SAY WE SHOULD JUST WAIT,
SEE IF ANY OTHER CASES TURN UP,

I BET
NONE DO,

WHAT A HORRIBLE
WAY TO GO,

I DON'T KNOW,

SOMETIMES I WONDER IF
WE WOULDN'T BE BETTER

TO BURN OUT FAST
THAN FADE AWAY SLOWLY,

HELL, YOU DIDN'T EVEN
KNOW HER NAME, JIMMY,

I CAN'T BELIEVE
I HAVE TO LECTURE
YOU ON PROMISCUITY,

YOU KNOW ME,
GRADY,

I DON'T PICK UP
STRANGE WOMEN LIKE THAT,

THERE WAS SOMETHING
ABOUT HER, SOME MAGNETISM,

I JUST COULDN'T RESIST,

I WASN'T THINKING
STRAIGHT,

IT WAS LIKE I WAS
TOTALLY DRUNK,

WERE YOU?

NO, I ONLY HAD
THE ONE BEER,

YOU'VE NEVER
SEEN HER BEFORE?

I WOULD HAVE REMEMBERED
SOMEONE LIKE THAT,

OKAY, OKAY,
CALM DOWN,

NO I.D.?

NO,

HOW ARE YOU FEELING,
JIMMY?

LIKE A DEER
CAUGHT

IN THE SIGHTS
OF A GUN,

WELL, UM, I THINK
YOU CAN RELAX A BIT,

THE RISK OF CONTAGION
IS MINIMAL,

I'D LIKE YOU TO REST
FOR A FEW DAYS...

MONITOR YOUR TEMPERATURE,
THAT SORT OF THING,

IF YOU CAN SRE HIM,

DO I HAVE
A CHOICE?

IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME,
I'M GOING TO GO VISIT MY MOTHER

WHILE I STILL HAVE
THE STRENGTH,

HI, SYLVIA,

MOM DIDN'T WANT TO
SIT WITH YOU TODAY?

I'M GOING BACK INTO
THE LIGHT,

OKAY,

UM...

YOUR SON MIGHT NOT BE ABLE
TO COME SEE YOU FOR A WHILE,

JIMMY'S A POLICEMAN NOW,

YES, I KNOW,

AND HE'LL BE BUSY,
SO IF YOU DON'T SEE HIM...

I WILL,

I'M GOING BACK INTO THE LIGHT

AND THEN I'LL SEE HIM AGAIN,

SURE YOU WILL,

I'M GOING TO GO SAY HI
TO MOM NOW,

MOM?

WHO ARE YOU?

IT'S ME,

IT'S CHRISTINA,
YOUR DAUGHTER,

CHRISTINA?

HI, CHRIS,

HI, UNCLE JERRY,

HOW'S SHE DOING?

FINE,

HER SPIRITS HAVE
BEEN UP LATELY,

I'M FIXING HER HAIR
THE WAY SHE LIKES IT,

YOU'RE SO GOOD TO HER,

I REALLY APPRECIATE IT,

WELL, I PROMISED MY BROTHER
TO TAKE CARE OF HER,

THAT'S WHAT
I'M GOING TO DO,

I'M SURE DAD APPRECIATES IT,

I'LL LET YOU HAVE A FEW MINUTES
ALONE TOGETHER,

JERRY?

NO, NO,
IT'S ALL RIGHT, HELEN,

I'LL BE BACK
PRETTY SOON,

BUT I DON'T KNOW THIS WOMAN,

HELEN...

CHRISTINA IS
YOUR DAUGHTER,

SHE LOVES YOU
VERY MUCH,

YOU BE NICE TO HER?

ALL RIGHT,

OKAY, I'LL BE RIGHT BACK,

DO YOU WORK HERE
IN THE HOSPITAL?

YOU'RE NOT IN A HOSPITAL
ANYMORE,

THIS IS YOUR HOME NOW,

I CAME TO TELL YOU THAT

YOUR DAUGHTER CINDY
IS GOING TO HAVE A BABY,

BUT I THOUGHT YOU SAID

YOU WERE MY DAUGHTER,

I AM, BUT CINDY'S
YOUR DAUGHTER TOO,

AND YOU'RE FINALLY GOING TO HAVE
A GRANDCHILD,

THAT'S NICE,

DO YOU HAVE ANY CHILDREN?

NO,

WHY NOT?

I DON'T KNOW,

HERE, LET ME FINISH
YOUR BRAID,

JERRY DOES MY HAIR,

- JERRY'S A WONDERFUL MAN,
DON'T YOU THINK? - YES, I DO, MOM.

I'M GLAD YOU HAVE
EACH OTHER,

I'M GOING INTO
THE LIGHT,

SYLVIA MENTIONED
THE LIGHT,

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

THE LIGHT THAT SURROUNDS YOU,

I STILL REMEMBER,

IT FILLS YOU WITH LIFE,

WHAT LIGHT?

IT'S ALMOST MY TURN,

MOM, NOW YOU'RE SCARING ME,

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

WHO ARE YOU?

YEAH, SHERIFF,
IT'S RIGHT OVER HERE,

WHO FOUND IT?

THOSE KIDS,

YEAH, IT LOOKS LIKE
SHE BROKE HER ANKLE,

I'D SAY SHE'S BEEN LAYING HERE
A COUPLE DAYS,

ISN'T THIS PART OF
THE OLD ANDERSON ESTATE?

YEAH, IT'S BEEN
DESERTED FOR YEARS,

WHAT SHE WAS DOING
OUT HERE, I DON'T KNOW,

ANY I.D.?

I DON'T NEED IT,
I RECOGNIZE HER,

MRS, VIRGINIA MASTERS,

SHE'S BEEN STAYING
AT A NURSING HOME

SINCE HER HUSBAND
PASSED AWAY,

HER ROOM IS JUST BEYOND
THAT ROW OF TREES,

SHERIFF...

IS THIS SOME SORT
OF PLAGUE?

I DON'T KNOW,

HAVE YOU TOLD THE CDC ABOUT
THE SECOND DEATH YET?

I'D LIKE TO
AVOID THAT,

I'VE BEEN INVOLVED IN
ONE CDC CASE BEFORE

IN ANOTHER TOWN,

BROUGHT IN
THE FRIGGIN' ARMY,

TANKS, HELICOPTERS,
THE WORKS...

QUARANTINED THE TOWN,

SCARED THE BEJEEZUS
OUT OF EVERYONE,

PUSHED US LOCALS AROUND,

THEN AFTER ALL THAT,

GUESS WHO FIGURED IT OUT?

YOU?

BINGO,

NOW TELL ME,

WHAT DO YOU MAKE
OF THIS CASE?

HOW IS IT DIFFERENT
THAN THE LAST ONE?

THE FIRST WOMAN
WAS IN HER 20s,

ACCORDING TO JIMMY,

AND VIRGINIA MASTERS
WAS IN HER 70s,

SO IN THIS WOMAN

THESE DISEASES MAY BE
NATURAL OCCURRENCES?

I DON'T THINK SO, SAM,

I WAS HER DOCTOR AND SHE WAS
IN RELATIVELY GOOD HEALTH,

THE ODD THING IS
THAT THERE WERE

TRACES OF SEMEN
IN THE FIRST WOMAN,

WELL, OF COURSE,
FROM JIMMY,

BUT WAS ALSO SEMEN
IN THIS WOMAN,

SO, SAM,
A 75-YEAR-OLD WOMAN

HAD INTERCOURSE
48 HOURS BEFORE HER DEATH,

I KNOW, I ALREADY FOLLOWED
THAT LEAD,

IT GETS STRANGER,

TAKE A LOOK AT THIS,

BOTH OF THESE WOMEN

HAVE A DEFECT
IN THEIR UTERUS,

IT'S ALMOST LIKE
A THIRD OVARY,

WELL, THE ODDS
OF THESE TWO WOMEN

HAVING THE SAME ABNORMALITY IS,
IS ASTRONOMICAL,

HI,

I'M GLAD
YOU'RE HERE,

WHAT?
WHAT'S WRONG?

SYLVIA MIDDLETON
JUST WENT MISSING,

HI, MOM,

IT'S CHRISTINA,
YOUR DAUGHTER,

MY DAUGHTER'S NAME IS CINDY,

CHRIS IS YOUR DAUGHTER TOO,
HELEN,

MOM, DO YOU KNOW WHERE
SYLVIA IS?

SHE'S GONE INTO THE LIGHT,

WHAT LIGHT?

WHERE IS THIS LIGHT?

WHERE IT'S ALWAYS BEEN,

VIRGINIA WENT TO IT,
AND LUCY TOO,

LUCY, WHO'S LUCY?

AND SOON IT'S GOING TO BE
MY TURN,

I WANT TO SEE IT AGAIN,

FEEL IT AGAIN,

PLEASE, TELL ME MORE ABOUT
THIS LIGHT,

BUT I DON'T KNOW YOU,

YES, YOU DO,

I'M CHRISTINA,
YOUR DAUGHTER,

CINDY'S MY DAUGHTER,

I DON'T KNOW YOU,

PLEASE LEAVE,

MOM, I NEED TO KNOW
MORE ABOUT THE LIGHT,

PLEASE LEAVE!

WHO'S THERE?

IT'S ONLY ME, JIMMY,

DO I KNOW YOU?

HOW'D YOU GET IN HERE?

I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU
STILL HAVEN'T FIXED

THE LOCK
ON THE BACK DOOR,

ARE YOU...
A FRIEND OF LUCY'S?

YOU KNOW, I KNOW YOU
FROM SOMEWHERE...

I CAN'T QUITE PLACE IT,

I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU STILL HAVE
THIS PIECE OF JUNK,

EVEN IN ITS DAY
IT WAS TACKY,

I THINK
YOU'D BETTER LEAVE,

MA?

I LOVED YOUR FATHER SO,

IF ONLY HE WERE
STILL HERE,

STILL YOUNG,

THEN IT WOULD BE EASY
TO FULFILL MY PROMISE,

JIMMY, OPEN UP,
IT'S ME, GRADY,

JIMMY!

IT'S ABOUT TIME,

I THOUGHT YOU'D
DIED IN THERE,

NO, I WAS JUST
SLEEPING,

LOOK, THERE'S BEEN A BREAK-IN
AT BEN REILLY'S STORE

A FEW HOURS AGO,

YOU'LL CHECK IT OUT TOMORROW?

I'LL BE THERE,

I'M AFRAID THERE'S NO WORD

ON YOUR MOTHER,
THOUGH,

I KNOW YOU'RE WORRIED,

BUT SHE PROBABLY WANDERED OFF...
MIGHT EVEN SHOW UP HERE,

SURE,

EVENING, MA'AM,

CAN I OFFER YOU RIDE?

NOW THAT'S FUNNY, COWBOY,

BECAUSE I WAS JUST GOING TO
OFFER YOU THE SAME THING,

I'M NOT SURE I WANT TO STAY
IN PRESCOTT, GRADY,

I THOUGHT YOU WERE
HAPPY HERE,

WE BOTH THOUGHT
IT WOULD BE SUCH
A GREAT PLACE...

TO RAISE A FAMILY?

I WASN'T GOING
TO SAY THAT,

BUT YOU WERE
THINKING IT,

THAT'S OKAY,
I WAS TOO,

I'M SO LUCKY TO HAVE YOU,
BUT SOMETIMES I...

I WONDER IF THIS IS
ALL THERE IS,

YOU KNOW, IF ALL THE OPTIONS
THAT WERE OPEN ONCE

ARE CLOSING OFF,

IF I'M GOING TO END UP
A MINDLESS OLD WOMAN

WHO NEVER MANAGED TO ESCAPE,

MY MOTHER SPENT HER LIFE HERE

AND WHO'LL REMEMBER ANYTHING
SHE EVER DID?

YOU WILL,

SHE DOESN'T EVEN
KNOW WHO I AM,

SHE'S SICK,

BUT EVEN BEFORE,

I MEAN, I WAS NEVER CLOSE TO HER
THE WAY CINDY IS,

I SPENT MY WHOLE LIFE TRYING
TO GET HER TO NOTICE ME,

AND NOW SHE LIVES IN A WORLD
I CAN'T BREAK INTO

EVEN IF SHE WANTED ME TO,

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?

I'M SORRY,

BUT THERE WAS SOMETHING
THAT I HAD TO DO,

IT'S OVER NOW,

WHAT IS?

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

IT DIDN'T WORK,

I DON'T KNOW WHY,

IT JUST DIDN'T,

I HAVE A FEELING,
IF IT HAD BEEN YOUR FATHER,

SOMEONE I REALLY LOVE...

BUT IT DIDN'T WORK,

MA,

JERRY, WAKE UP,

HELEN,

HELEN, IT MUST
BE PAST MIDNIGHT,

YOU SHOULD BE
IN BED BY NOW,

NO, JERRY,
IT'S TIME TO GO,

WHY ARE YOU
DRESSED LIKE THAT?

I'M GOING BACK INTO
THE LIGHT,

NOW YOU KNOW
THAT YOU CAN'T LEAVE,

YES, I CAN,

HELEN, I...

I CAN'T LET YOU GO,

IT'S NOT GOOD FOR YOU,

I'M GOING BACK,

I HOPE YOU'RE COMING WITH ME,

WHERE?

WHERE DO YOU
WANT TO GO?

TO PARADISE, JERRY,

I'M TAKING YOU TO PARADISE,

COME ON, JERRY,
COME ON,

HELEN,
THIS IS CRAZY,

WE OUGHT
TO GO BACK,

NO, NO, IT'S NOT
VERY FAR, REALLY,

TRAIPSING AROUND
THE COUNTRYSIDE...

PLEASE,

WE SHOULD NEVER HAVE
LEFT THE PLACE,

IT'S
THIS WAY,

OVER HERE,

THIS IS IT!

THIS IS IT!

HOLD MY HAND,

HELEN, WHAT ARE
WE DOING?

I TOLD YOU,

WE'RE GOING INTO THE LIGHT,

NOW CLOSE YOUR EYES,

HELEN, YOU KNOW
I PROMISED

TO TAKE CARE
OF YOU,

BUT THIS IS GOING
BEYOND ANYTHING...

WHAT'S HAPPENING?

IT'S WONDERFUL,

BUT HOW?

WHY?

IT'S A GIFT, JERRY,

IT'S A GIFT FROM
THE STARS,

PLEASE, I DON'T
UNDERSTAND,

YOU DON'T
HAVE TO,

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO
IS ENJOY IT,

YEAH?

JIMMY?

JIMMY, HOLD ON,
I'M LOSING YOU,

JIMMY, I DON'T UNDERSTAND
WHAT YOU'RE SAYING...

YEAH, WELL, JUST CALM DOWN,
I'LL COME RIGHT OVER,

THAT WAS JIMMY
NOT MAKING ANY SENSE,

WHATEVER IT IS,
HE'S REALLY SPOOKED,

MAYBE I SHOULD COME TOO,

JIMMY!

JIMMY,

MY GOD, SHE'S
STILL ALIVE,

JIMMY, YOU'VE GOT
TO LET GO OF HER,

HELP ME,

JIMMY,

JIMMY, LET HER GO,

COME ON, LET
CHRIS DO HER JOB,

IF YOU CAN HEAR ME,
HANG ON,

I'M GOING TO GET YOU TO
A HOSPITAL,

I'M GOING TO NEED
A PARAMEDIC UNIT HERE STAT,

SHE KEEPS CHANGING,

THE NIGHT
IS NEARING ME,

NO, DON'T SPEAK,

IT'S TOO LATE,

MAKING YOU YOUNG
DRAINS THE LIFE FORCE,

WE CAN STILL DO IT,

THERE'S ONE LEFT,

MOM?

I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU SMILE
LIKE THAT IN 40 YEARS, JERRY,

PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS,

THIS IS A DREAM,

IT'S REAL,
VERY REAL, JERRY,

NO,

I'VE DREAMT OF THIS
FOR 45 YEARS,

OF WHAT?

A MOMENT LIKE THIS,

I'VE WANTED TO SAY SOMETHING
TO YOU FOR SO LONG,

BUT NOW I'M NOT SURE
IT'S PROPER,

WHY NOT?

BECAUSE OF...

OUT OF RESPECT FOR CHARLES,

MY HUSBAND DIED
A LONG TIME AGO, JERRY,

HE'D WANT BOTH OF US
TO BE HAPPY,

OKAY,

WHAT THE HELL,

I LOVE YOU, HELEN,

I HAVE SINCE THE FIRST DAY
I MEET YOU,

THERE, I SAID IT,

EVER SINCE MY BROTHER
BROUGHT YOU BACK

TO MEET THE FAMILY,
I'VE BEEN IN LOVE WITH YOU,

AND I'VE HAD TO
KEEP IT TO MYSELF

BECAUSE
HE GOT THERE FIRST,

I KNOW, JERRY,

REALLY?

YOU WERE SUCH A SWEET MAN,

WELL, I GUESS I'M JUST
AS MUCH TO BLAME,

I SHOULD HAVE CHASED
AFTER YOU,

WELL, WHY DIDN'T YOU?

WELL, IT WASN'T PROPER
BACK THEN...

A WOMAN CHASING AFTER A MAN,

IS IT PROPER NOW?

WE NEED SOMETHING THAT
CONNECTS THE THREE OF THEM,

MEDICAL RECORDS
OF A COMMON DISEASE,

A GROUP VACATION TO
SOME STRANGE PLACE,

ANYTHING THEY HAVE IN COMMON
FROM THEIR PAST

THAT MIGHT EXPLAIN
THIS DISEASE,

DID YOU KNOW
YOUR MOTHER
WAS A FELON?

YOU'RE KIDDING,

NO, IT'S RIGHT HERE,

SHE WAS PUT IN JAIL
FOR TRESPASSING ON

THE OLD ANDERSON
PROPERTY,

ISN'T THAT WHERE YOU
FOUND VIRGINIA MASTERS?

YEAH, IT SEEMS
THAT A GROUP
OF YOUNG WOMEN

SNUCK IN THERE
ONE EVENING,

OLD BEN ANDERSON
FOUND THEM,

SAID THEY WERE ALL
INTOXICATED,

THERE WERE FOUR OF THEM,

SYLVIA, VIRGINIA, LUCY

AND YOUR MOTHER,

GRADY, SHE'S
ONE OF THEM,

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THEM,
WE'VE GOT TO STOP HER

BEFORE SHE ENDS UP
THE SAME WAY,

WHAT ARE
WE DOING?

THIS IS YOUR
DAUGHTER'S BEDROOM,

THIS IS WHY THEY
MADE US YOUNG, JERRY,

WHY WHO
MADE US YOUNG?

I'M GOING TO BE THE ONE
TO SUCCEED,

YOU AND I WILL BE THE ONES
TO FULFILL THE PROMISE I MADE,

HELEN,
WHAT PROMISE?

YOU KNOW WHY
I BET

WE'LL BE
THE ONES?

BECAUSE WE LOVE EACH OTHER,
NOT LIKE THE OTHERS,

NOT JUST LUST,

BUT LOVE,

A MIRACLE
CONCEIVED BY LOVE,

WHAT WILL BE?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

THIS IS YOUR DAUGHTER'S BEDROOM,

MY BROTHER'S DAUGHTER,

DON'T YOU WANT ME?

YES,

GOD, YES,
AND FOR GOD KNOWS HOW LONG,

BUT THIS?
THIS ISN'T...

IT'S NOT RIGHT,

IT'S...

THIS IS PERFECT,

A PLACE SURROUNDED
BY LOVE,

LOVE OF FAMILY,

LOVE OF EACH OTHER,

THIS IS SO PERFECT,

WE WILL CREATE
A MIRACLE HERE,

HELEN,

MOM?

HER BED HASN'T
BEEN SLEPT IN,

I DON'T UNDERSTAND
IT, SHERIFF,

MAYBE UNCLE JERRY
KNOWS,

TWO OF THEM WALK OUT
AND NO ONE SEES THEM?

WHERE
IS SHE?

THIS IS
IMPOSSIBLE,

JIMMY, JIMMY,

RIGHT HERE,
GRADY,

CALL HOWARD NEVEN,

WAKE HIM UP
AND GET HIM LOOKING,

I WANT EVERY UNIT,

OKAY, SHERIFF,
WE'RE ON IT,

OKAY, GOOD,
I'M TAKING

CHRISTINA HOME IN CASE
SHE SHOWS UP THERE,

WHO'S THERE?

JERRY?

JERRY, THANK GOD,
WHERE'S MY MOTHER?

IT'S IMPOSSIBLE,

WHERE'S MOTHER?

IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE...
IT'S ALL A BAD DREAM,

WHERE IS SHE?
JERRY, SHOW US,

JERRY,

MOM, ARE YOU OKAY?

IT'S CHRISTINA,
YOUR DAUGHTER,

I'VE COME TO TAKE
YOU HOME,

I KNOW WHO YOU
ARE, CHRISSY,

MY GOD,

WHO'S THAT?

I THINK IT'S MY MOTHER,

IT'S ALMOST TIME,
I CAN TELL,

YOU'RE FULLY DILATED,
ARE YOU IN PAIN?

NO MORE THAN WITH YOU
OR YOUR SISTER,

YOU WERE
THE WORST,

YOU JUST DIDN'T
WANT TO COME OUT,

YOUR FATHER MUST HAVE SMOKED
A CARTON WAITING FOR YOU,

SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY,

I'M GLAD YOU REMEMBER,

SO AM I,

BUT I HAVE TO TELL YOU...

IT'S SO IMPORTANT THAT YOU KNOW,

SOMETHING
HAPPENED HERE
50 YEARS AGO,

SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY,

IT HAPPENED TO FOUR OF US,

WE WERE PLANNING
A PICNIC IN THE PARK

AND WE WERE DRAWN TO
THE OLD ANDERSON FARM,

AFTER THAT NIGHT
OUR WHOLE LIVES CHANGED,

WE COULDN'T TELL ANYONE

BECAUSE THEY WOULDN'T
UNDERSTAND,

BUT WE COULD
WAIT,

AND WE WAITED 50 YEARS
FOR THIS VERY MOMENT,

SHE GAVE US FOUR CHANCES,

CHANCES TO DO WHAT?

TO CONCEIVE,

TO CREATE
A VERY SPECIAL BABY,

A MIRACLE,

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

WHAT CAME FROM JERRY
IS HUMAN...

BUT THE EGG ISN'T,

MY GOD,
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?

THIS CHILD COULD TEACH US ALL
SO MUCH,

- I CAN'T BE PART OF THIS...
- LISTEN TO ME!

LIKE US, THEY LIVED IN
A PARADISE,

ANOTHER WORLD
OF BEAUTY,

WHO?

SHE WAS THE LAST OF THEM,

I DON'T UNDERSTAND,

WHO ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

SHE CHOSE US BECAUSE
WE WERE THE SAME AGE,

STILL INNOCENT AND HEALTHY,

SHE WAS YOUNG LIKE US,
ALONE AND FRIGHTENED...

VISITING OUR EARTH,

HER STORY
MOVED US

SO MUCH THAT WE AGREED
TO WHAT SHE WANTED,

WE LET HER IMPLANT

AN ALIEN EGG IN EACH OF US,

IT WAS REALLY QUITE PAINLESS,

WE WERE TOLD

TO LET IT GROW INSIDE OF US

UNTIL IT WAS READY
FOR FERTILIZATION,

BUT IT TAKES
THEIR EGGS

50 YEARS TO MATURE,
THAT'S WHY SHE LEFT THE LIGHT,

THE LIGHT?
WHAT THE HELL IS THE LIGHT?

SHE LEFT IT FOR US
TO BECOME YOUNG AGAIN,

BUT ONLY LONG ENOUGH
TO CONCEIVE,

WE KNEW SHE WAS LEAVING
TO DIE,

ALL THAT'S LEFT

OF HER RACE NOW
IS IN THIS BABY,

THEN WE'LL HAVE TO
MAKE SURE

IT COMES INTO
THE WORLD SAFELY,

PUSH,

MY GOD,

WHAT? WHAT?

WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE?

PLEASE,

SHH, IT'S OKAY,

HONEY?

LOOK, MOM,
SHE'S SO BEAUTIFUL,

SHE IS BEAUTIFUL,
ISN'T SHE?

HELEN,
YOU'RE RIGHT,

WE MADE A MIRACLE,

HEY, SHE'S GOT...

SHE'S GOT YOUR EYES,
CHRISTINA,

SHE ALSO HAS
YOUR MOTHER'S EYES,

NO,

I HAD SO MUCH I WANTED
TO SAY TO YOU BEFORE...

IT'S ALL RIGHT, CHRISTINA,
YOU STILL CAN,

REALLY?

YOU KNOW WHO I AM?

YES,

THEIR GIFT TO ME,

I WON'T GET
TO SEE IT ALL,

I WON'T BE ABLE
TO WATCH HER

GROW UP WITH YOU,

DISCOVER THE WORLD,

FALL IN LOVE,

BUT I KNOW YOU'LL BE
A WONDERFUL MOTHER, CHRISSY,

SHE'LL ALWAYS BE
THE ONE PERSON

YOU THINK ABOUT
MORE THAN YOURSELF,

AND THOUGH YOU MAY NOT SAY IT
WHEN YOU SHOULD,

YOU'LL ALWAYS LOVE HER,

YOU'LL ALWAYS WORRY ABOUT HER,

AND YOU'LL ALWAYS BE
SO PROUD OF HER,

AND NO MATTER
HOW OLD YOU GET,

SHE'LL STILL BE
YOUR LITTLE GIRL,

THE LOVE OF MAN AND WOMAN,

THE LOVE OF A MOTHER
AND CHILD...

IT IS ONLY FROM THESE PLACES

THAT MIRACLES CAN BE BORN.
