5 Souls Page #4

Just since we moved to Dallas.

Before that

I worked at an office

that specialized in importing

building materials.

Is Bickman one of your clients?

Yes.

That's how I got the job.

Do you plan on leaving town

anytime soon, Ms. Hawkins?

We're not made

for the darkness.

What have you done, Noah?

I'm here for you, Noah.

I didn't want to lose you.

Then come with me.

Remember how it use to be.

It's never too late

to turn back, Noah.

What if you're wrong?

What if I'm right?

And that, gentlemen, is why

we are down 50% in profit.

Morning, David.

Excuse me, Mr. Bickman, sir,

I tried to stop him.

Give me a coffee.

Everybody get out.

What do you want?

Miranda Hawkins.

Miranda's head of

the purchasing department.

Lovely girl.

It is a shame, though.

What?

Well, that her fianc Noah's

in a coma.

Why do I give a f***?

He's an architect here.

He was head

of the Quorum project.

Oh, you didn't know that.

I am afraid

he's not gonna make it.

Not this time, uh-uh.

I've figured it out,

what you did in Houston.

You used Miranda's company

to bring in materials,

then you sold and resold

through local companies

so that the origin

would not become an issue.

I sincerely hope that Miranda's

not trying to implicate me

in anything that she or her

fianc got tangled up in.

Funny thing is the paper trail

leads right back to your door.

This time I can prove it.

Innocent people died, you f***.

And you're gonna be

held accountable.

Don't you threaten me,

Reynolds.

If you got proof, then you

lay it on the table right now,

otherwise you get the f***

out of my office.

You know what, David?

First time

was negligent homicide.

This time it's murder.

Too bad it wasn't another member

of your family in there.

[MONITOR BEEPING]

What are you doing here?

I'm praying for you.

I'm passed that.

He's not listening.

You can come out of this, Noah.

You can beat them.

I can't.

Stop waiting for me!

I have to.

It's your soul.

You're beautiful,

the soul that you're

going to give away.

Don't you love yourself

more than that?

I love myself enough to do

whatever it takes.

I want to live.

I want to go on,

and that is my antidote.

Don't you f***ing judge me.

We can't all

be as perfect as you.

Do I look perfect to you, Noah?

You made us this way.

You didn't have

to do this to us.

To me.

He's coming.

And he's stronger than me now.

Don't forget me.

Twice.

Only this time,

it's not trespassing, is it?

What do you want

from me, Sarah?

How about what you promised?

That you were gonna do it right,

no crazy psycho bullshit.

- I had to find out.

- Oh, and now you did.

You found out that in 10 days

you're gonna be arranged

on felony assault charges,

that the city of Dallas issued

an official apology to Bickman,

and that I'm suspended

without pay.

Are you happy now?

And you just ensured

he's gonna get away with it.

Get out of the car.

[MONITOR BEEPING]

[CHUCKLES]

You look like hell.

Listen, my boy.

Just think about this.

One more soul.

One more soul,

and you'll have crossed through

your own personal hell.

I may even indulge myself

and help you over

the final threshold.

Who is it?

You're so close to finishing

your masterpiece.

You only have one more soul.

In your heart, Noah, you knew.

You knew you didn't deserve

the life you planned.

And now, my friend,

you'll make

the right decision again.

Bickman told me that

Miranda's fianc's in a coma,

so I followed her here.

If I can get Miranda to talk,

I can get her turn on Bickman.

Oh, come on, Sam, really?

You want me to arrest her while

I'm on suspension? For what?

I don't care. Bickman's about

to pin this on the fianc.

- We questioned her already.

- Not in front of him.

We can't let him walk.

By the book.

Noah.

Are you awake,

or am I dreaming?

I'm awake.

I'm gonna go get the nurse.

No. Stay.

Stay for a minute.

I just wanna hold you.

I didn't think

you were coming back to me.

- I'm back.

- [CHUCKLES]

I came back for you.

I missed you.

I dreamt about you.

There's so much

I have to tell you.

There's so much I have to say.

Shh.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Everything's gonna be perfect.

We have enough money.

And I'm gonna stop everything.

I already have.

We just...

We have to go away

and not come back, okay?

He was the architect,

she was the buyer.

Bickman was the boss.

It was a chain.

They're all

accessories to murder.

I am so sorry that I made you

do those things.

I know you didn't want to,

but... it was for us.

It is for us,

and I took care of everything.

The bodies.

What?

They haunt me.

Shh.

No.

I took care of everything,

the evidence.

It's all gone.

Nobody needs to know.

But you're gonna haunt me, too.

Babe. Baby, stop.

You're scaring...

It's okay. Noah, stop.

No.

Hi. I'm looking for

Noah Benedict's room.

Through the double doors,

214 on the left.

Great. Thank you.

Noah, you're hurting me.

Stop.

Noah, sto...

[SCREAMS]

No!

[RAPID BEEPING]

Oh, my God. Hey!

Oh, jeez... Sam!

Sam! Help!

- [GRUNTS]

- [SUSTAINED BEEP]

Oh, Jesus Christ.

Code blue, 214.

I love you, Dad.

SARAH:
Sam?

Sam?

Sam?

Sam?

Sam, Sam.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Hey, did I ever show you

a picture of my daughter?

She's beautiful.

Yeah, she is.

Now what?

[SUSTAINED BEEP]

You made it.

You delivered.

Am I alive?

More than you know.

What does that mean?

You really don't give

much thought about things,

do you, Noah?

I mean, other than

what you can get out of it.

Don't get me wrong.

You passed.

With perfect marks.

Passed what?

You killed,

never asked questions.

You just followed orders.

Just like in life.

You made deal after deal

with Bickman.

You made your fiance

happy and rich.

Your greed and manipulations

began at an early age.

But they blossomed...

into profit and opportunity

with Bickman.

And it all led

to this building.

You remember the building,

don't you?

You helped build it,

you and Miranda.

Yes.

Inside the rubble...

are the four people you,

Miranda and Bickman killed.

So the question is,

as per usual:

If a person knew...

that his choices would lead

to someone else's death,

would his choices have been

different if he knew?

And you killed them again...

in person this time,

with your own hands.

To survive,

you will kill anyone.

Absolutely anyone.

And that is

what makes you perfect.

What's next?

It's your job now, Noah.

You know what you need to do.
