Touch (2012–2013): Season 2, Episode 11 - Accused - full transcript

Previously on Touch...
MARTIN: I got your files,

a hard drive full
of information,

waiting to be handed
over to the police.

TANNER: Ms. Farington,

we've spotted Lucy
Robbins' vehicle.

NICOLE: I'm sending Tanner.

No, that is really
not necessary.

I'm still in complete
control of the operation.

How should we proceed?

Get rid of her.

[gunshot]



You said they found one body.

Jake? Jake?

MARTIN: That means
Amelia's still out there.

She's alive.

I put my money on Rigby.
I should have put it on you.

The work we're doing at the
sleep clinic is extraordinary.

You had one.

We have six,

and a seventh is arriving today.

MARTIN: The nest of seven.

Do you have any idea
what that could mean?

You scan their brain
waves while they're sleeping.

It's yielded an almost
90-digit sequence.

The God sequence.



I'm in. Welcome home, Calvin.

AMELIA: He's
coming for us, Jake.

He's coming for you.

He's here.

[alarm blaring, grunting]

The killing's over.

No!

Jake, stop! Jake!

[siren blaring]

I need to see you at the
station tomorrow, 12:00 noon.

[distant siren wailing]

Got any reservations,

this too risky for
you in any way,

you let me know now.

Let's go.

[sighing]

[phone ringing]

Trevor... thanks for
getting back to me.

Guillermo's dead.

[sighs] You're serious?

I was there. He's
gone. It's over.

The police were called.

I couldn't get Jake and Amelia
out of there quick enough.

The detective who's
investigating the murders

at BreakWire, Detective
Lange... He was in charge.

At first, I couldn't
believe my bad luck.

And then I started thinking,

no, this is what's
supposed to happen.

I've decided to
tell him everything

about Aster Corps, Amelia, Lucy,

why Jake and I had
to leave New York,

go on the run, everything.

I think this might be the police
officer I've been looking for.

Trevor, I got to go.
I'll call you tomorrow.

Hey, buddy.

You can't sleep?

Come on, I'll read you a book.

Jake?

[sighs]

Amelia?

My mom stood here.

Yes, she did.

She said my name.

She cried.

On this wall,

your mother pinned up
every piece of evidence

she uncovered
trying to find you.

She never gave up.

Never.

[voice breaking]: I know.

[panting]

I never believed
what I was told.

Sweetheart.

[door clicks open, squeaks]

[whispering]: Don't say a word.

Both of you stay in this
room. I'll be right back.

♪♪

[footfalls]

[panting]

[panting]

[door opens]

[whispering]: Jake,
Amelia, we need

to go out the back now, quickly.

Let's go.

[Martin panting]

Follow me.

Come on.

Go, go, go.

[footfalls approaching]

Nicole, we've got a
little bit of a problem.

Uh-huh.

There's, um, been a little
incident with Dr. McCormick.

He was spotted downtown
by an old marine buddy.

Was there contact?

Yes, there was.
Our-our security team

managed to get him out of there

and back to the sleep
center safely, but,

uh, his friend, uh,
got a little roughed up.

Okay. Then be more
careful, we have no problem.

No, actually, we do.

This buddy, this marine...

Shane Stevens... has now
filed a missing persons report.

[scoffs] I see.

And he's got a Web
site, and he's posting

flyers up all over town.

And I'm telling you, this
guy is not going away.

The patient
furloughs have to stop.

Well, we can't have them feel

as if they're prisoners.

We go into overdrive,
work round the clock.

We finish the sequence
and be done with it.

I don't know if that's possible.

McCormick has regressed
since the incident.

He has not slept.

So up his dosage.

That's not that simple.

Side effects emerge.

The guy's developed tremors.

He's showing signs of paranoia.

Is he dying?

Well, not...

No... of course he's not dying.

Well, then, the side
effects are irrelevant.

Just go back to work
and finish the sequence

and up his dosage.

And double it if you have to.

Uh, Liz? Hi. It's Dr. Linus.

I need you to, uh,

double the sleep
medication for McCormick.

Yes. I'm sure.

[knocking] MARTIN: Avram? Avram?

Martin Bohm, is that you?

Kids, get inside. Grab a seat.

Avram, lock the door.

We got to turn
out all the lights.

Two men with guns
broke into the house.

AVRAM: Aster
Corps. MARTIN: Yeah.

Did they see where
you went? I'm not sure.

We knew this might happen.

Avram, does anybody else
know about this address?

You are safe here.

These two men
were professionals.

They came to kill me
and take the children.

I need to check the back.

JAKE: I am one of 36 people

responsible for maintaining
balance in the world.

There are dangerous people
trying to prevent that from happening.

You children are okay, yes?

I'm fine.

So is Jake.

Very well.

We stay quiet and we wait.

JAKE: They are getting
close... but so am I.

MARTIN: Amelia,
grab your jacket.

It's on the couch by Jake.

Avram, is that my car out front?

Yes. My cousin and his friends

went to the duplex to retrieve
your car and belongings.

Tell them thank you,
but we can't stay here.

I'm going to talk
to a detective.

His name is Lange. I trust him.

I'm gonna tell him everything.

Hey, buddy.

"3021."

Perhaps we should figure
out what this number means.

I'll keep an eye out for it.

But right now, I've got to go.

Look, uh, please
just watch Jake.

Make sure he doesn't leave
the house until I get back.

Of course. I should
only be a few hours.

Be safe, Martin Bohm.

Thank you.

Amelia, are you ready?

Yes.

Okay, let's go.

Hey, buddy.

We'll be back in
a little while, okay?

NURSE: You told me to
up McCormick's dosage.

And now he's unresponsive.

LINUS: What do you
mean he's unresponsive?

We can't lose him.

I administered 20 milligrams

methylprednisolone; no effect.

500 milligrams of
adrenaline, now.

Right away, Doctor.

LINUS: Let's go,
let's go, let's go.

[coughing]

LINUS: Well, well,

and there you are.

[sighs]

My throat's dr... dry.

That's very good.

Liz will get you some fluids.

Right away, Liz.

Get your electrolytes up.

But you slept.

And that is progress.

Lift your head for me.

There you go.

Good job, Dr. McCormick.

You should feel
very proud of yourself.

He's all yours.

[sighs]

I made you some food.

It's important to
keep up your strength.

You should eat.

Jake... where did you...?

You took this from Guillermo...
the man who tried to kill you.

Jacob, my boy,

this amulet is a
very important object.

This symbol, the Tree of Life,

represents how the
universe came into being.

The sacred and secret
story of this amulet is that

whosoever possesses it
shall become the Protector,

the guardian of the
Lamed Vav Zaddikim,

the 36 righteous ones.

Guillermo had this amulet.

Yet, in his hands, this
became an instrument of death.

You took this amulet from him.
Why? Why would you do this?

"3021." 3021.

That's-That's the number
that you gave to your father.

3 + 2 + 1... six.

Six... the number
of love and healing.

The six levels of healing.

The sixth level is the
working of miracles.

Mir... Miracle.

Miracle. Miracles, healing.

Jake, are we
looking for a doctor?

A doctor. Adding your
numbers of 3021. Miracle.

"Missing person
file number 3021.

"Commander Robert McCormick.

"The 'Miracle Surgeon.'

"Saved the lives of five
marines in Afghanistan."

Oh, my. "Missing. Last
seen in Los Angeles."

A name... Private First Class
Shane Stevens... is listed

along with a phone number

to call if anyone
has any information.

Jake, your father
made it very clear

we were to not
leave this apartment.

This man, Shane,

he has been looking
for the doctor for weeks.

I believe that Dr. McCormick
is one of the 36

and that he is in danger.

Just like you, Jake.

I believe that we are to
find and protect this man.

Perhaps by helping

the doctor, we are
also helping you.

Yes, your father would
understand this, yes?

Very good, Jake
Bohm. We will do this.

We will meet this Shane.

We will commit ourselves
to finding Dr. McCormick,

a member of the 36, and
we will give him safe harbor.

Please have a seat here.

Thank you.

Are you nervous?

A little.

Me, too.

Thank you for coming down.

Just wait for me
here, sweetheart.

I'll call you in in a minute.

Have a seat right there,
please, Mr. Bishop.

That's not my name.

Bishop.

My name is Martin Bohm.
I'm wanted in the state

of New York on one
count of kidnapping.

And you've come
here to turn yourself in?

No.

I came here to clear my name.

Last night two men
broke into my home.

Their intention was to
kill me and kidnap my son.

Who were these men?

They work for Aster Corps.

Aster Corps the company?

Yes. I have an eyewitness
who will corroborate

everything I'm
about to tell you.

Her name is Amelia Robbins,
daughter of Lucy Robbins,

who was murdered four days ago.

And you're saying these two men

are responsible for her murder?

Well, I'm not sure
it's the same two men,

but I'm absolutely certain
Aster Corps had her killed.

Her body was found 15
miles west of Newberry Springs

in the middle of
the Mojave Desert.

I'm sorry. I'm confused.

Why would they do that?

For years Aster Corps has
had a secret research division

run by Calvin Norburg.

They're set up to study
advanced brain activity.

They wanted Amelia
as one of their subjects.

So, 3√ years ago,

they kidnapped her
and faked her death.

They altered her autopsy report

and her death certificate.

They even gave her a
new name: Adeline Danvers.

That's when they transferred
her from New York to Los Angeles

and began conducting
experiments on her.

On this flash drive

I have evidence that will
back up all of my accusations.

Aster Corps is a $30
billion corporation.

You realize that, right?

Yes. Look, I understand

that everything that I'm
telling you sounds crazy,

but I swear to you...

every word of it's true.

And what proof
do you have again?

The evidence on
the flash drive...

Amelia's testimony, her DNA.

Also, you should
question Tony Rigby.

He headed up the
division for Aster Corps.

I'll talk to the girl first.

Thank you.

[sighs]

Amelia... right?

Come on in.

Joe. Yeah?

Put out an APB on Tony Rigby.

Bring him in right
away. You got it.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

Ticket to New York, one way.

$417.62.

Doing a little sightseeing?

Yeah, this is Elite Bus Lines.

I have a Homeland
Security alert.

This restaurant is
owned by a friend of mine.

We will be safe here, my boy.

Are you Avram?

I am.

I'm Shane.

Thank you so much for your call.

I've been searching for
Dr. McCormick for weeks.

I could use your help.

We are glad to help.

When I was in Afghanistan,

Dr. McCormick, he was
a battlefield surgeon.

Five marines were
critically wounded

by a roadside bomb.
I was one of them.

Dr. Mac, he, uh,
he kept us all alive.

Later, when I went to
thank him for saving my life,

he said it was nothing.

"It was as if my hands
were, were guided by God."

I'm certain they were.

Then you know
the rest of the story.

After his discharge,

he came, he came
home, he couldn't sleep.

He was agitated.

He was no longer himself.

And then, three months
ago, he just vanished.

I think his life is in danger.

How do you know this?

Because I was
downtown. I saw him.

I called his name.

He turned, he saw
me, I know he did.

What happened?

This guy came and grabbed
me, another guy joined him.

Punched me, kicked me,
told me never to return.

I passed out. Before
I did, I saw them take

Dr. McCormick and put
him in a van and drive away.

This is terrible, my friend.

[bangs table] I'm
not gonna give up.

Tell me, how do you
know Dr. Mac again?

In truth... we do not.

But, please, we were sent
here to help you find him.

Yeah. [chuckles]

Yeah, I'm sure you were.

It's nice talking to you.

No, please, wait.

Come, Jake.

Shane!

Please, stop!

May I explain?

Why are you doing this?

Dr. McCormick's in danger.

I need to find him
before it's too late.

And I don't need
anybody getting in my way.

Shane, watch out!

Look both ways much?

AVRAM: Are you hurt?

[siren wailing]

When I was eight years
old, my mom and dad took me

to a board-and-care
facility in New York

where they had
me do a lot of tests.

Who exactly?

The man's name was Dr. Teller,

but he's dead now.

After a while,

they told me that my mom
and dad didn't want me anymore

and that I had to leave.

That's when they gave
me my new name...

Adeline Danvers... And
flew me to Los Angeles

where they started to do
more tests on my brain.

So how did you escape?

It's all right, sweetheart.

You can tell the
detective everything.

They murdered the woman that
was taking care of me... Frances.

I watched her die.

Then they drove me

to a place in the desert
where they continued

to do experiments on me.

That's when Martin
came and got me.

He took me to my mother.

My mom and I were
on our way home

when these men
ran us off the road.

And then they killed my mother.

I miss her.

Can I have some water?

I'll get it.

Here you go, sweetheart.

My son Jake

has a lot of the abilities
that Amelia does,

but he doesn't speak.

He uses numbers to communicate.

He gave me this

before I came here today.

I'm sure you don't believe me,

but I promise you,

at, at some point today,
that number will matter.

Okay.

Amelia, would you mind
repeating all of this on a recorder?

I guess so.

Okay, how about we
start with you telling me

about this compound
in the desert?

Tony Rigby.

Freeze!

Hands behind your back.
Okay, okay, okay, all right.

Okay.

I'm gonna have the evidence
on this flash drive analyzed,

but I'm gonna have to
ask you not to leave town.

And what about the
outstanding warrant

for my arrest in New York?

I'll pretend you
never told me that.

And what now?

Until this case is resolved,
you go and be with your son.

[door opens]

Let's go.

[sighs] Thank you.

Thank you.

I think it went so well.

You were amazing.

When you stood there, you
looked at him, you told him the truth,

it was... it was great.

Avram, it's us.

Avram.

Stay right here.

Avram?

Avram?

Jake? Avram?

They're gone.

Maybe they went for a walk. No.

I told Avram not to take
Jake out of the house

until I got back... come on.

We shall return home, Jake.

This will give us time to decide

what our next course
of action will be.

What is this?

"If found, return
to Randy Kitson."

There's an address...
A marketplace on 3rd.

Returning this may possibly
lead us to the doctor, yes?

Then that is precisely
what we will do, Jake Bohm.

His name is
Dr. Robert McCormick.

This is the test subject
you told me about?

Battlefield surgeon, brilliant.

His scores are off the chart.

So far what we've seen is
beyond our wildest dreams.

Interesting.

And how's he coping
with the process?

Uh, there are issues.

Minor ones.

Dr. Linus is still adjusting

for the side effects.

The side effects?

Well, reactions.

You know, tremors, small
seizures, memory loss.

But he's being
closely monitored.

As they all are.

Detective Lange.

This is Tony Rigby.

[whoops]

That was fast.

Picked him up getting
on a bus downtown.

Once we put out the APB,

it came up on the computers.

This is insane.

Why the hell am I
here? I've done nothing.

Mr. Rigby, I want to ask
you a couple of questions

about the murder
of Frances Norburg.

I'd heard she'd been
killed... It's a tragedy.

I don't know
anything else about it.

Serious accusations
have been made

against you and your
company Aster Corps.

Former company.

Former... you have
any questions, ask them.

Oh, I plan to... trust me.

Anyone in particular
I should see there?

Yeah, Nicole Farington, the CEO.

Farington.

One "R"?

Yeah, I've got
nothing else to add.

Can I leave now, please?

Actually I have
grounds to hold you over

for further questioning.

I want my lawyer.

[laughs] I bet you do.

Let's put him in

Interrogation Room 1 for now.

Yes, sir.

Come on, let's go.

Sweetheart, I want you
to stay here in the car.

Okay.

Avram?

Jake.

Avram.

[whispers indistinctly]

Avram, Jake.

They're gone.

How do you know
that, sweetheart?

I see things.

What do you mean you
see things— what things?

I see visions.

People.

Sometimes I see them
before they happen.

How often?

I see things when I see them.

I don't when I don't.

Amelia?

I see Jake.

Detective Lange, LAPD Homicide.

Is there someplace
we can speak privately?

And what could we possibly
have to speak about?

Amelia Robbins.

Detective,

we are in the middle of
our corporate year end.

I can't express to
you how busy we are.

Amelia Robbins is a 14-year-old
girl who was kidnapped

from a boarding care facility

called Stanford House
in New York City.

She was taken to Los
Angeles against her will

and given a new identity.

Exactly what does
this have to do with us?

The boarding care facility

that she was in

is a division of Aster Corps.

Uh, actually that
boarding care facility's

part of a health care
division that's been sold off

to an investment
group in Singapore.

Clearly not our responsibility.

The kidnapped girl

was given a false name...

Adeline Danvers.

Now we found a plane ticket
issued to a Miss Danvers

on a flight from New York to
L.A., paid for by Aster Corps.

Would you kindly look into our

human resources database?

Adeline Danvers is
junior counsel in our labor

and contracts division...
She's on the 28th floor.

I can have her come up
to meet you if you'd like.

Excuse me.

What can I do for you? Um,

yes, we are looking
for Randy Kitson.

That's me.

Yes, my young
friend Jake found this.

Uh, we believe
it belongs to you.

My glasses.

You...

were there when

I crashed my bike.

Yes. [laughs]

Thank you, thank you so much.

You are most welcome.

Can I... can I do

something for you?
Uh, free smoothie?

No thank you.

Come along, Jake.

Thanks, guys.

I don't understand,

Jake Bohm... what is the
significance of this journey?

WOMAN: Not good news, D.L.

What am I looking at?

A story falling apart.

I'll call you back.

Took a drive out to Newberry
Springs, brought my camera.

Desert compound?

It's a distribution warehouse.

Yeah, but what about the
prison... the holding cells

and the guards?
None of the above.

Place has a staff of 25.

They ship weatherproof
computer cases to China.

Site manager says they've
been fully operational

going on five years.

I don't get it... why
would that little girl lie?

No idea, but none of
what she said stands up.

No razor-wire fence,

no guards with guns, no
bad guys, no conspiracy...

Just computer cases.

There's more.

I found this.

Partially hidden
in the underbrush,

like someone discarded it there.

Same caliber as the one
that killed Lucy Robbins.

You run the prints?

Running as we speak.

Amelia, what do you see now?

I see people.

A lot of people around Jake.

People around Jake.

Left, go left.

Oh, damn it.

I must've been
speeding... don't worry,

I'll just explain to them
that we're looking for Jake.

[sirens chirping]

Officer, I'm sorry if it looked

like I was speeding.
Down on the ground!

Get on the ground!

My son is missing.
Mr. Bohm, get on the ground!

How do you know my name?
Okay, I'm getting on the ground.

What am I being charged with?

You're under the arrest for
the murder of Lucy Robbins.

What?

You need to call
Detective Lange, please.

Just call Detective Lange!

[cell phone dings]

Interesting text.

What is it?

It hasn't been reported yet, but

Martin Bohm was arrested

for the murder of Lucy Robbins.

How do you know that?

Well, I have friends
in influential places.

You think he actually did it?

Calvin, that's decidedly
beside the point,

now, isn't it?

Good luck.

[breathing heavily]:
Detective Lange.

Please, my son is out there.

I need to find him.

I didn't do anything.
I swear to you.

The evidence is telling
me something else.

What evidence?

We found the gun.

What gun? The one you
used to kill Lucy Robbins.

You shot her, left her in the
car and tossed the weapon.

Your prints were all
over it. You kidding me?

Anyone could have planted that.

How would they do that?

I don't know!

[sighs]

The D.A. considers
you a flight risk.

He's going for the maximum bail.

Amelia. Wait, wait...

Amelia. Cross-reference
Amelia's DNA

with her mother's so
you can prove who she is.

You'll know that Aster Corps

faked her death and
that I'm telling the truth.

Detective, I need
to find my son.

I need to find my son now!

We have been here
long enough, my friend.

We should go home.

Doctor.

Dr. McCormick.

Do I know you?

No, you do not.

My name is Avram.

This is my friend Jake.

We believe that your
life may be in danger.

[sighs]

I don't-I don't know
what you're talking about.

If-if you'll just listen,

I believe that we
were sent here,

uh, to find you, to help you.

I-I don't want your help.

And I don't want to be found.

We-we met with Shane.

The young marine
whose life you saved.

You know Shane?

Yes, we met. He
explained everything.

How you saved his life.

How your trouble began.

How you stopped sleeping.

Doctor, what...

what are they doing to you?
Something's happened to me.

My mind has begun
working too fast.

It made sleep impossible.

I went weeks
without a single night.

I felt like I was dying.

But at the sleep center,

they're helping me.

Last night I slept.

I actually slept. Doctor,

I believe that you are one of
36 extraordinary individuals.

Jake is one of them as well.

I can explain.

If you come with
us, I can protect you.

I won't listen to this.

I want you to leave me alone.

Doctor, please.

What's happening?

Bohm, you made bail.

Hey, Martin.

As far as anyone knows, you
have a rich aunt somewhere, okay?

You did this?

You paid my bail?

Why?

Judge set the bail at the max:

$2 million.

If I didn't do this for you,

you would have
been looking at a year

before you even got a trial.

They said they had a
gun with my prints on it.

Any idea how that happened?

I had nothing to do with it.

Then who?

Does it really matter?

We both know you
didn't kill Amelia's mother.

How can I trust you?

Look, we both want to
take down Aster Corps.

These people had
my mother killed.

Think I'm going to let
them get away with that?

Besides, you don't have
much of a choice, do you?

What now?

I got you out,

the rest is up to you.

Here's your car.

It's outside in Lot B.

I'll be in touch.

Jake?

Amelia?

Ja...

Oh, sweetheart.

I am so sorry.

I promise you,

we're going to get
everything straightened out.

Earlier when you
were having your vision,

you could see Jake.

Can you still see him?

Yes. Where is he?

We should get in
the car, I'll show you.

Okay, let's go.

Are we getting any closer?

Yeah, we're almost there.

Right, go right.

Doctor, i-if I can just have
another moment of your time...

Please, Dr. McCormick.

That was them.

Jake.

Martin.

Jake, get in the car now.

Get in the car, now!

I don't understand.

I told you not to take
Jake out of the house.

You did it anyway.

It-it's not what you think.

Two men came into
my house last night

and tried to kill me
and take my son.

Don't you realize
how dangerous this is?

Jake's number led us here.

This man may be one of the 36.

I don't care about the 36.

I'm trying to protect
my son. Martin, listen.

No, Avram, it's you who
should have listened.

Now, are you getting in or not?

Dr. McCormick may
be one of the 36.

I-I must find him.

Suit yourself.

Martin.

[tires screeching]

Martin Bohm!

What's happening?

Please! Please!

NICOLE: Calvin, I
know what you did.

I really don't know
what you're talking about.

Amelia Robbins.

What about her?

You've been experimenting
on her in a secret location.

[sighs]

I was doing it for my brother.

William.

You know about William?

Of course I do.

I know everything that happened.

Well, then you
understand that...

I'm responsible
for him being there.

And, uh, I just, uh...

I have to save him.

That's why I want
your focus here.

We have seven of them, Calvin.

Seven.

All as transcendent as the girl.

Now, you hold the
key to everything.

Your mind can lead

Aster Corps out of the darkness

and into the promised land.

So, well, what do
you want from me?

The same thing
you want from them:

The numeric sequence that
their brain power can provide.

Besides the remapping
of your brother's brain,

I'm assuming you're aware
of its predictive capabilities.

Yes.

Then you know what it
would mean to a corporation

like ours to be in possession
of such a sequence.

Well, with seven of them,

you ought to be able to crack it

within a matter of days.

That's why I want your
passion, your inspiration.

I want you to work longer

and harder and better
than you ever have before.

Then your brother
can get his life back.

[sighs]

All right, peanut butter only.

PB and J in quarters.

Jake.

I know Avram's your friend.

But I'm your father.

And I'm responsible to
make sure that you are safe.

And I gave Avram
specific instructions

not to let you out of the
house until I got back.

So, when...

You're right.

He's my friend, too.

[sighs]

[over voice mail]: This is
Avram. Please leave a message.

Avram, it's Martin.

We're back at your house.

Look. [sighs] I-I
was scared, okay?

When I got home and-and
you and Jake weren't here,

I... I thought something
had happened.

Maybe that you had been taken.

Look, I'm sorry for yelling.

Please just come
back so we can talk.

JAKE: My father has sacrificed
everything to keep me safe

and to help me find the
other special people like me.

Before it's too late.

I may be running out of time.

[breathing heavily]: Hello?
