told me.

That what I see is the real

truth.

This is the body that took

over Finch's life before me.

This is the source.

Whatever's left rotting under

here,

I've got to destroy.

He can't escape me,

there's nowhere else to go.

- What makes you think I won't

stop you?

- You would've stopped me a long

time ago

if you wanted to.

You're too selfish to care about

anything

but yourself and the life you

stole

from the real Van gogh,

the one who was my only true

friend.

Unless you'd rather go back

to your original body also.

- You know me well enough,

but don't think your desires

are much different from mine.

You may not have to dig

as deeply this time.

- It's time we met

face-to-face.

My true shape of what you knew

as Finch.

I am the soul we are both

sharing.

- Dwight, it's that pain that

connects you

to your old life.

'Cause that's all our life was,

pain.

It's the pain that forced you

insane

so you could forget it.

If you kill this thing, you

can live that life again.

- Ellen.

No, Ellen, get out!

- That's

what happened before.

And that's what will happen

again.

That's where you left

me when you killed me.

You meant to kill yourself

afterwards,

but you went crazy

before you could finish.

- No.

- Think of anything else you

would force yourself to forget?

Anything as horrible?

- No.

No, you're right.

I can never remember this life.

- I know.

And that's why I forgave you.

Every

single

time I came to see you at the

hospital.

I can never let you touch me

or you'd remember all the pain.

It would destroy you before

i could have you back.

- That was all that kept me

going.

It was good at first.

You were so good to me.

Please, please let Ellen go.

- You can't love her.

- Help!

- I came back from the

dead to be with you.

I took over this body

and I gave you Finch.

Back from the dead to be with

you.

I made sure you got free.

- We were no good for each

other.

Look at where we ended up.

- You'll kill her, Dwight.

Once you're free of Finch,

you'll go insane again.

- Since you want her body and

not mine,

this is how you did it, Dwight.

Switch with her

at the moment of death.

That way, we can be together

at least for a few moments.

So you see, you'll have me

whether you want me or not.

- No.

Not Ellen.

- You'll have to kill me

again, Dwight.

It's what you are and what you

were.

But at least we'll be together

for a few moments.

It will be beautiful.

- Don't worry,

my friend Van gogh had enough

of his sad part in this world.

He wanted to end his life

a lot more than you wanted

to take it from him.

- Well, I try to do justice

with what he created.

Tell me what you think of this.

It's yours, to remind you

of what you did to be free.

- I want you to finish it.

- It is finished.

- No.

I want you to add my face to it.

- Do you know what'll

happen if I did that?

- I know what'll happen if you

don't.

I know who I was now.

Who I am.

I'm Dwight stroud, a

psychopathic killer.

And I know I'll kill Ellen

eventually

if I go on living.

But I want you to add one more

thing

to it first.

- Don't touch him.

He's at the point of death.

- No!

No!

What are you?

Why would you let him do this?

- If you had touched him,

you'd have found out.

He saved you from that

and perhaps much worse.

The painting is yours.

He had me finish it to save you.

But it's not mine.

Dwight lived that painting.

And he signed it as his own.
