Where is Mr. Pembroke?

The patient was in this room, where is it?

I thought you were Pembroke.

You know what used to be prescribed for the common upset stomach?

The application of leeches.

Since the diagnosis, always I pitied leeches.

Sr. Lockhart...

please, with us?

The sturgeon is excellent, unless you prefer deer.

I could not waste it.

Where is Pembroke?

Unfortunately, Mr. Pembroke fell.

I fear that their conversation about business ...

He made it worse.

But it does not matter. He passed to the next stage of treatment.

I saw good.

But you're not a doctor.

Perhaps we should ask for a second opinion.

That's a decision Mr. Pembroke.

And it is not available.

Since I arrived...

I have been giving evasive.

I ask you to lower your voice.

We do not want to upset customers, right?

Mr. Lockhart, what I want is to give evasive.

My only concern is the welfare of my patients.

It's bad for business people to improve.

It is not true?

What do you mean, Mr. Lockhart?

The elderly will pay a fortune for water.

What is your operating costs?

That's not your business.

I do not want to involve a lawyer ...

but I came to take me to Pembroke ...

and that I will do, if I have to beat him ...

and take it in tow.

Does it feel good, Mr. Lockhart? Appears pale.

I'm fine.

It's bleeding.

What?

You should sit.

No sign of concussion.

Sore head, hallucinations?

No.

You can get dressed.

Have you been drinking?

Yes.

Good.

Not quit.

I took the liberty of making some tests after the accident.

Hannah.

It's not her?

Yes.

It is a very special case.

What does that mean?

He suffered a severe trauma when he was very small.

Its development was delayed.

Hannah did not say a word until eleven.

Please understand ...

Sr. Lockhart...

which is like a daughter to me.

But we're here to talk about you.

Imbalance in fluids.

Stress in the major organs.

weakened immune system.

Many indicators in common with most of my patients ...

but I had not seen a case ...

as advanced as this ...

in one so young.

Do not tell me.

Tell me, Mr. Lockhart ...

When was the last time you felt good?

Before coming, when was the last time?

What slept all night?

The mind can lie ...

but the body does.

I would help.

What we offer ...

It is a simple purification process.

Away from the pressures of the modern world.

The return to a simpler time.

Mr. Pembroke will not travel on one or two days.

If you are willing ...

I can recommend treatment.

I'll talk to the nurse ...

and we could start tonight.

If you find it necessary.

Good.

Greta?

Greta?

Lucky, Mr. Lockhart.

We can start immediately.

"VR".

From Reichmerl.

He was found during reconstruction.

Would you belonged to Baron?

The baroness, actually.

Vanessa From Reichmerl.

He was very sick.

Baron was obsessed with finding a cure.

It was he who discovered the medicinal properties of this water.

He sacrificed everything.

Surely he loved her very much.

Yes.

Like a sister.

The story is right to try him for moral reasons.

But, as a scientist ...

I can not help but admire him.

The nurse will take you to the isolation area.

Thank you.

Sr. Lockhart.

If you do not mind.

To keep track of your progress.

Are you ready, Mr. Lockhart?

Let us begin.

Life on this planet emerged in the water.

We spent the first nine months of our existence submerged.

Much of our body is liquid.

This sensory deprivation chamber simulates the return ...

the embryonic state.

Consider a cleansing of the mind ...

like body.

Some patients experience increased heart rate ...

visions ...

even primal memories.

But know that toxins are leaving your body.

Give yourself completely to the process ...

and you will see results.

Viglenlo.

Yes sir.

Sr. Lockhart...

treatment lasts 30 minutes.

I'll be monitoring it. If you have trouble ...

hit the side of the tank.

Behind!

In the last five days, absolute crash.

The Dow fell 508 points ...

and panic spread through Wall Street ...

razing more than one third of the profits ...

five-year bull market.

More than half of that in one trading day.

The director of the New York Stock Exchange, John Phelan ...

He tried to reassure investors.

Dad?

Dad!

Mr. Lockhart, are you all right?

Let me.

Keep calm.

I am so sorry. Something happened with the machine.

There's something in the water.

There's something in the damn water!

There is nothing in the water, Mr. Lockhart.

I saw them.

As explained the director ...

Some patients have visions with this treatment.

They are toxins leaving the body.

It is part of the cure.

Needs to rest.

I'll help you go to your room.

To atrap.

Good day, Lockhart.

Feel better?

Do you eat breakfast with us?

The Kitchiri is excellent.

I'm not hungry.

You must conserve his strength.

Mrs. Watkins?

The building was formerly the church ...

What used now?

I can not tell.

He was right about the baron and his sister.

But that was not why the villagers torched the place.

It was for the experiments.

Some sort of medical experiment.

Experiments, sister, wedding fire.

Apparently he is experimenting with his peasants.

People disappeared.

And later...

in 1814 ...

farmers plowing their lands discovered human corpses ...

defaced and skeletal.

Desiccated like mummies of Egypt.

He is seeking a cure.

- A cure? - For the baroness.

I was sick.

I get it.

If you like crossword puzzles.

CARE:

Of course.

Ms. Watkins ...

It's time for your treatment.

Are you sure?

I did one this morning. I'm sure.

I have it on the agenda.

Surely I'm not very good today.

Here is a terrible darkness.

What is this place?

I am sorry. I do not understand.

I thought I had seen a patient.

No patient.

It's okay.

Thank you.

Are you going to swim?

I have not allowed it.

Why?

My illness.

I thought the water was helping you heal.

I already told you. I'm a special case.

Clear.

What is so far the people?

A few kilometers, I think.

Are you going to walk there?

Unless you about my bike.

What do you give me in return?

It was my mother.

His eyes are closed.

Yes, you are dreaming. But she does not know.

What if he wakes up?

I do not know.

My mother did not end the story.

How will you use?

You could come with me.

I'm not allowed.

Do you always do only what they have permission to do?

No problem.

Viennese?

Do you want a beer or something?

I dont know. I want?

I do not know what you want.

It's okay. If you're going to take one.

Are you still here?

I thought just came to visit.

He has had better days.

Ditto.

How's the car?

That car was a scrap.

Sanatorium offered me enough money to buy a new one, so ...

Things happen for something, right?

Drink too much.

I hope you're not going to drive.

You. Both come from the mountains?

So is.

Many patients do not come here.

In the background are good guys.

But not educated them well.

Do not respect the traditions.

Do you know if there's a doctor?

All doctors are on the mountain.
