No one is beyond suspicion.

Do you know where I can find him?

- I'll find his number and his address.

- Thanks.

- Detective.

- Yes?

Ted's a good guy.

He couldn't have done it.

He lives with his mother.

- Detective?

- Yes?

I guess I'm not making myself clear.

Ted is gay.

Maybe. Or maybe just real clever.

I'll be in touch.

Come on, Kathleen. You're a big girl.

You've got the Medeco lock and everything.

Hello.

You bastard!

Kathleen, you do remember

we have a date tonight?

Yes. How did you get in here?

Key over the door.

The oldest New York bachelor girl safety device

known to mankind.

Give it to me.

You sure?

You were invited over for

a New England boiled dinner and some wine.

No one said anything about keys.

You don't even know about the lock.

If you don't do it right

it doesn't close properly.

- Why do you think I have that key, anyway?

- Beats me.

Look, can we try to forget about this

and have a pleasant evening together?

You're right. I'monedge. I'mcrazy.

What's going on at the hospital

is too spooky for words.

What do you mean?

You guys in administration

should only know the things that we see.

We see...

And just how much did you see?

Enough to know

that I want you to bear my children.

Brett, you know how I feel

about sex before marriage.

And I know, it's old-fashioned.

And I know that I might be

the last old-fashioned girl.

But that's the way I was brought up.

I can't help it.

Well, couldn't we just practise

some of the first few basic moves?

It's odd.

The girl I attended with Dr Pace this afternoon,

she wa sa... virgin.

It's strange, almost as if in this day and age

it's some sort of guilty secret to be...

...a virgin.

It's funny. I still have trouble saying that.

Brett? Brett?

And for what?

What brings them here?

Who talks them into it?

Am I the only one who does it?

What brings the others here?

The ones who want to hurt them.

The ones who want to kill them.

Hello?

Did you do it?

Was it you?

Was it you, you goddamn creep?

Did you do it?

Hello?

Yes.

- Yes, Alec, the police were here.

- The ones from the other day?

No, there was only one.

A plain-clothes detective.

Great, those other guys were pigs.

Was this one cute?

Alec.

Karinsa was raped and mutilated.

Ted's disappeared and they think he did it.

And all you can think of is it the detective was cute?

You're hopeless.

I'm sort of a material witness.

They're gonna have to come see me.

I'm hanging up now, Alec.

I know you've never had a man

but this is no way to fin done.

I don't want to take the chance with anybody with all the

diseases floating around.

I'd rather be... What's the word? Celibate.

Until I give it for the first time

to somebody who isn't married, isn't gay

and doesn't spend half his time

at the VD clinic.

I'm hanging up now, Alec. It's six o'clock.

I'm going home.

Goodnight, Alec.

Damn.

Must be the main in the basement.

Great.

I brought you some more flowers, Donna.

Do you like carnations?

I'm gonna let some sun in so you can see them

when you wake up. They're pretty.

Pretty as you'll be again

when the doctors fix you up.

Maybe then you'll go have a burger with me.

I don't believe this.

- Yes?

- Mrs Moore?

I'm Detective Dale Andriotti

from the police department. May I come in?

Come in.

It's about time someone showed up.

Forgive the state of this place.

I've been so upset since it all happened.

- Why hasn't anyone come by sooner?

- You know?

I know that my son is missing.

What have you found out?

I beg your pardon?

- What have you found out about my son?

- That's what I came here to ask you.

- But I called you.

- When was the last time you saw your son?

He left for work two days ago

and never returned.

He always calls me if he stays at a friend's.

He knows I need him.

Is there somewhere Ted might have gone?

A certain friend?

No, he never goes anywhere

unless it's work or...

Yes?

He does go off with his group,

but he always calls me before he leaves.

His group?

This stuff was dug up by Ted

in the NY Historial Society.

Sometimes Ted and his friends go off

into the old tunnels underneath the city for days.

He would have told me if he was gonna go.

They find a lot of antiques

they aren't supposed to sell, but they do.

There are so many tunnels under the city.

Ted knows most of them. It's just a hobby.

They're supposed to give the stuff

to the authorities to put in museums.

Ted sells most of it.

Gets good money for this old junk.

Have you ever met any of this group?

My Teddy Bear wouldn't go with a bad crowd.

I thought all this was harmless, but it isn't, is it?

I hope my Teddy's not in some kind of trouble.

He's lost or hurt, isn't he?

Don't worry. We'll find him.

I hope so. He's all I have.

I dont know what I'd do without him.

Dr Blair.

Do you see what I mean, Ira?

This is unreal.

There's a logical explanation for everything

but I told you. Look at this.

What the hell?

It's the same from every girl.

It's not a virus, not a communicable disease.

It's more like the waste matter

of some sort of spore.

It's... incredible.

What?

- It's brick dust.

- It's what?

Let me see another one.

Well?

- More brick.

- What are you talking about?

Brick dust. Red brick dust.

There's only one place where you'll find it.

- Where?

- Under the city.

I saw this when I treated children

living under Grand Central Station.

They were feral.

Abandoned, like little animals.

- Brick dust? It could be from anywhere.

- That's not true.

There was a red brick used when

they were building Manhattan. They ran out.

You don't find it anywhere else.

These particles are on every slide.

That's every girl... victim.

And there's only one place

where this could've come from.

- Ira?

- Gamble.

Whatever is going on,

it's coming from underneath this city.

Donna?

- Hello?

- DrPace?

- Who is this?

- Dale Andriotti. Can you come to the hospital?

- What's wrong?

- They're gone. They're all gone!

What?

Each girl who has been attacked is no longer

in this hospital or the victim programme.

Allfive ofthem.

Wait a minute. We've still got Karinsa.

Hello, this is Dr Gamble Pace.

I want a 24-hour guard on Karinsa Marshall.

Yes. Now. Immediately. This is priority.

- Your first name's Gamble?

- Yes. Put that away, please.

How come?

My dad was a blackjack dealer in Vegas.

His little joke.

I likeit.

- Thanks. Gives me a certain outlook on life.

- Looks like it's about to come in handy.

- You know, I can't figure you out.

- What do you mean?

You seem so concerned.

I think you'd be used to it by now.

- It's never easy.

- No, but it's almost like you're fascinated by this.

You may know about medicine,

but you don't know it all.

When I was seven years old

my older sister was raped.

I watched her go from a happy teenager

to a closed-up old lady in one day.

She never got over it.

Sorry.

When this is over,

maybe we could go for dinner.
