Okay.

No!

Badger!

Colin, you f***ing loser!

Get them, Colin!

Oh.

I'm going to take Dorothy

back with me to the hospital.

With the right treatment there,

I'm confident we can help her.

It's for her own good, Mrs. McMahon.

If I can prove this is a case

of multiple personality,

there's a good chance she'll be acquitted.

You want to keep her gift

all to yourself, don't you?

I couldn't bear to lose

my Mary all over again.

We're talking about

Dorothy, Mrs. McMahon.

Well, my little Mary died 10 years ago.

I thought I'd never see her again.

But the good Lord brought Dorothy

into my home as a gift.

She's worked miracles for me.

She's made your son

speak, hasn't she?

David.

That's his name, isn't it?

Isn't it?

We have to think about Dorothy.

We have to help her.

I'll take good care of her.

You've gotta get away from here.

I've seen death

cast its wings on you.

What is it, Dorothy?

Is it the water?

- And the blood?

- I'm scared.

I don't want to remember.

I'm scared.

It's okay.

You've gone through it once.

And you can live it

again through memory.

I want to take you

back in time, Dorothy.

I'll count from 10 to 1.

Where are you?

There was an accident.

My mother is washing

the dead people.

- How old are you?

- I'm 5.

- Do you know them?

- Yes.

Look, Dorothy. Aren't they beautiful now?

They've a long journey ahead of them,

to the realm of the dead.

Shall we say good-bye to them?

No...

Don't be scared, Dorothy.

Look. It's your cousin Mary.

Give her a kiss good-bye.

- No.

- Give her a kiss.

No!

Dorothy, give her a kiss good-bye.

Come on.

Shh. It's over now.

It's over now. Dorothy. Shh.

Shh.

You didn't kiss the dead bodies.

Your mind created Mimi

as a tiny little girl

who doesn't have

the slightest idea about death.

She kissed the dead for you.

Yeah.

It's all over now.

Shh. Go to sleep. Go to sleep.

We'll leave tomorrow morning.

Shh.

Evening, Colin.

Remember me?

- No...

- You weren't so scared

when you were with your three mates.

No.

You're not real.

Don't pretend you've forgotten,

you f***ing piece of sh*t!

You're dead.

Mary's dead. You're all dead.

We're back.

We've been waiting for you.

Time for payback...

Sheriff.

You tell us who's next!

It's up to you.

There's a man lying dead in the hall.

You tell us who's next.

Don't you tell us what to do!

Quiet, every one of you!

Dorothy, tell me what happened.

I don't know. I don't know.

When I woke up, he was dead.

She's got to be stopped.

Before she comes after all of us!

Can't you see he killed himself?

Dorothy's not the problem.

It's you! It's all of you!

She knows the truth

about your community.

Dorothy is a lunatic,

just like her mother,

and you know that.

Dorothy's a member of our community.

It's our responsibility to deal with her.

My name is Duncan McLellan.

Oh, Duncan.

My dear Duncan...

I was a member

of your community, too.

We're listening, Duncan.

I'll show you.

Tell us, Duncan.

Why did you hurt

the Kearsleys' baby?

His father had to pay.

They all had to pay

for what they did to Mary!

Yeah! Come on, Mary!

Whoo!

Get the f*** away!

- Whoo-hoo!

- Whoo!

Whoo!

Why don't you give us a dance?

Just piss off, would you?

Slapper!

Duncan?

Kurt!

Why the f*** are

youse hiding from me?

Keeping all the booze

to yourselves, is it?

Lads!

F*** it.

- Hey! Come back and dance.

- F*** off!

Better watch your language, you slut.

Yeah, be polite to me friend.

Hey! Let go of me, will you?

Get the f*** off me!

Get the f*** off me!

Duncan! Duncan!

Leave her alone!

Jesus!

Let her go! Or I swear I'll kill him!

Let her go, lads! Let her go!

Back off! Back off!

I'll cut his throat.

F***ing shag this!

I'll f***ing kill him for that!

This is getting out of hand, lad.

He tried to kill you.

Are you with us or not?

It's okay! It's over now!

They're riding our backside!

Hurry up!

Faster! Speed it up, man!

Try the f***ing gas!

Faster!

I can't go faster!

Hurry! Just step on it!

Step on it!

Oh, God.

Hurry up!

They're gonna kill us!

You...

You killed my daughter.

You killed my daughter!

Kurt. My Kurt.

We were just young and stupid!

We didn't mean...

Forgive us, Duncan, please!

Duncan!

- You bastard.

- Get away from me.

Stay away!

Stay away!

Mary McMahon was up for it!

Oh...

you bunch of hypocrites.

You didn't bat an eye

when we took her away, did you?

Hmm?

You all thought she deserved it.

Didn't you!

We're all in this together.

Together.

We can keep this on the island.

- She's the only evidence.

- Dorothy!

Please! Please, don't touch her!

You leave her alone! Please!

- Hush, woman!

- Don't touch her!

Think about it now.

Huh? Do you really want

all the publicity?

Hmm?

Policemen?

Journalists?

Huh?

All poking their noses

all around this island?

Our island?

It'll be the end

of your happy little community.

Huh? Think about that now.

She's the only evidence.

You leave her alone!

This is a time of tribulation.

Fear and anger

threaten to drive apart

those who have lived in fellowship

for many, many years.

We cannot let this pass.

For the sake

of the island, we must act.

We must right this wrong.

We will not hand you to the police.

But you cannot stay here.

You will be exiled

from this place forever,

you and your families.

Your homes will be leveled.

All memory of you will be erased.

If any man should disagree with this,

let him speak now.

We have all sinned.

And we shall all suffer.

So let us now devote ourself

to the worship of the Lord our God,

in the hope of redeeming

ourselves in His eyes.

As for the psychiatrist,

it was her own stubbornness

and refusal to listen to reason

which brought her to tragedy.

Suffice to say

she left us without word

of her destination.

No.

No. It's not possible.

I'm dead?

I'm so sorry, Jane.

It's all my fault.

I should've stopped you

from going on that damned island.

I feel so guilty.

Don't say that.

I'm happy you sent me.

I couldn't save David, you see.

But at least I saved Dorothy.

I saved her, didn't I?

You saved her.

You brought her back to me.

She'll be acquitted,

and she'll stay here

until she's cured.

Yeah.

And now it's up to you, Jane.

You have to leave Dorothy's body.

She won't be free until you're gone.

Will you take good care of her?

I promise.

Keep it.

David loved you so much.

I'll keep it forever.

Good-bye, my love.

Dorothy?

Is that you?

Has Jane been crying?

She was here.

She's gone now.

She's with her son... David.

Do you think they're all gone?

Duncan and Kurt

and Mary?

And Mimi, too?

You have to learn to live

on your own now, Dorothy.

You're free.
