Make a commitment,
make a decision to love.
And you're healed.
You're made whole.
It's not a new idea, Alex
Get rid of the troublesome ego.
Pow! Pow! Pow!
Go, ego. Run free.
I'm still not sure she
belongs in the group.
You don't have to be sure, Alex.
You don't have to come to a decision.
You know, the important thing
is that she recovers her memory.
Now she relates to you, she
likes you for some reason.
I don't know why, but she does.
So let's just press on.
Alright?
Drop down to first gear,
honey. it's Miller Time.
What are these?
Vitamins?
Beauty secrets from the Orient.
Look what they've done for me.
- Ralph.
- Hello!
You in a cooperative mood, or
do I have to tie you up again?
Promises, promises.
Open.
Next time it'll be lower.
She's crazy about me.
Hey, I've got a great idea. Why
don't you come up to my room?
And I'll catch you
up to date?
I got a hi-fi VHS VCR,
a CD, and MTV.
I don't think so.
You know what I do when it
all gets to be too much?
I make a little hole,
and it all escapes.
Well, there's the assistant
Ayatollah. See you later.
Can I buy you some lunch?
I've been watching the others.
They belong here. I don't.
And I'm feeling stronger, I'm
getting used to things,
Like VCS's and MCD's.
I want to leave.
Cynthia, we've been trying to
locate your family for years,
and we haven't come
up with anything.
Where would you go?
I'd find some people,
like at Unity.
Cynthia, there aren't any more
places like that. And the fire
that injured you took everything
with it. They're all gone.
I know that.
Yes, you do.
And I know this is a lot to take,
but it's a buried memory and
it needs to be uncovered, and
put in the proper place in your mind.
Maybe it's something you
could work on with the group.
Sooner or later, Cynthia, we
all have to move on.
The sooner you do, the better.
Let's catch this.
Would somebody hit eight, please?
It stopped!
Great.
I think this is the
fourth time this week.
Come on, why can't
you fix this thing?
Come on, open it up!
Excuse me.
Unity's coming here.
- Cynthia!
- Now and forever.
Come to us, Cynthia.
We love you.
You belong to us.
Forever.
Come to us, Cynthia.
We love you.
Let me out of here!
Let me out of here!
Excuse me. Coming
through! Cynthia!
He's in there. He's in there.
He's in there. He's in there.
Cynthia, what happened?
- He's alive. He's in there.
- Who's in there?
He's in there. He's alive.
He's in there.
Well, first off, we're gonna feel a
little silly, and we're gonna look
- a little silly.
- I don't think it's silly.
I'm glad.
But let's see if this
technique can help
release a little hidden aggression.
Alright, who's gonna go first?
- Lana?
- Hmm. Um.
I was wondering how many
helpless and defenseless geese
had to die to fill up these pillows.
They're polyester, honey.
Alright, well let's do the first one
all together. All right?
Ready?
One, two, three!
Outstanding. Truly
outstanding.
Alright, what are we
feeling? Gilda?
His power is transcendent. The
day of reckoning is at hand.
That's so weird. That's
exactly what I was feeling.
Ralph.
Miriam?
I was thinking about my first husband.
Or maybe the third.
What's the difference?
About four inches.
Cynthia?
I know it's hard. Try
to participate.
Alright. Let's try this one again,
only let's really let loose.
Miriam?
Ready? One, two, three!
Our love will never die.
You fail me, Cynthia.
You failed us all. All of us
make the same journey.
But you made us wait all
this time while you slept.
The waiting time is
over, my love child.
Come to us.
We were happy.
And we were going to make
our break with the world.
'Cause...
'Cause it didn't like us, and, um...
Their- Their faces, and
there was, uh...
Gasoline.
He put gasoline on us. And, um...
Somehow I knew it was
wrong, and I ran, and...
There was this big wind that
picked me up and threw me.
And then, I don't know, um...
When I opened my
eyes, I was here.
Why wasn't any evidence found?
Jerry cans would have been burned
up completely before anything else.
We knew there was an explosion.
We just didn't know how or why.
Well, Lieutenant.
You must be pleased to close
the case after thirteen years.
Who said it was closed?
What do you mean by that?
Well, Sleeping Beauty
here woke up.
She didn't remember anything about the
thirty deaths. So now she remembers.
It was a goddamn Jonestown.
A suicide pact.
Who knows what she'll
remember tomorrow?
If she ran for her
life like she says
or that she though the whole
thing was a nifty idea.
Hell...
Maybe she bought the damn gasoline
and helped pour it on the babies.
- That's enough.
- That's out of line.
Please, if you don't mind. Please.
That man's a candidate
for shock therapy.
A jumper cable right up his ass.
No, he's right.
They expected me to keep
And they still do.
Man, there's nothing
like a hot shower, huh?
Mm. Um, Cynthia.
Oh. Are you alright?
- I thought that after today, that, um-
- I'm fine.
You know what? There's a hole
where my heart's supposed to be.
It's like it hurts here,
because I'm empty.
Um, you know, what you
were saying about togetherness
and everything makes perfect
$9086 llo me.
Mm, you know, maybe there's
a little hope for me, sort of.
I think you want to help people.
Not, um, not like some others.
Um, if you need a friend here...
All of my friends are dead.
Oh. Oh. Okay. Um, if you need, um,
a friend, a new- A new friend, um-
Please.
Will you just leave me alone?
- Um.
- Please.
Leave me alone.
Lana, wait a second.
She didn't mean it!
Sh*t.
Look. Look! Lana may be a
little weird, even for this place,
but she means well.
I probably pull her chain too much,
but she's reaching out. We all are.
You should try to help her.
I can't help myself.
Cynthia.
Unity. Unity.
Cynthia.
- Unity.
- Join us.
Come here, my child.
Cynthia, you're now
part of the whole.
Embrace the unity
of spirit before you.
Heart of the mind,
soul of the self.
Spirit of the body.
Cleanse. Cleanse. Cleanse.
Cleanse. Cleanse!
I warned you, Cynthia. I warned you
someone else would take your place.
Bob! We got a girl
drowned in the pool.
Get her legs. Get
her legs up. Come on.
She's got no breath.
- God!
- How long was she under?
Did you see the police this morning?
They're all over the pool.
Fingerprints. Photographs.
Yeah, next they're gonna have the
f***ing Coast Guard out here.
Lot of good that's gonna do Lana.
Ralph! We are gonna start
billing you for those outbursts.
Yeah, you bill us and our family
for every goddamn aspirin!
You bill Lana for a body bag?
Dr. Freeman to gynecology.
Dr. Freeman to gynecology.
[WHISPERINGJ
You are defenseless against him.
Shithead.
Jesus.
You can't blame yourself about Lana.
She was unhappy. And sometimes
unhappy people do stupid things.
