Exorcist II: The Heretic Page #3

Get thee hence, Satan!

Be uprooted!

Be expelled from this creature of God!

I command you to the depths of hell!

- Merrin defeated you.

- No!

In his own piace of power,

he gained a iittie time.

It was because the boy was a heaier

that you attacked him. Now I see.

- But Merrin saved him!

- Never!

I couid ciaim Kokumo even now.

- I'ii show you power.

- He's stiii aiive!

- Where is he?

- You want me to take you to him?

Yes.

Are you sure?

Show me.

come fly the teeth of the wind.

Share my wings.

- What was it?

- A leopard.

He jumped at me.

The boy's still alive.

He frightened Pazuzu.

- Do you remember anything?

- Was it in Africa?

why do you say that?

It was like what I saw

at the Natural History Museum.

- But you weren't supposed to remember.

- I know.

- Okay, Regan, that's all for today.

- Okay.

Pazuzu showed me that boy. He's a man

now, in a strange mud city in Africa.

Perhaps I can find him.

He has a power over evil.

Regan recognized one of those places.

But she told us it was something

she remembered from the museum.

Let me ask her.

Just a minute. Take it easy.

I want to take a look at you.

Hi.

Hi. Are you waiting for Dr. Tuskin?

She's very nice, isn't she?

what's the matter with you?

I'm autistic.

How do you mean?

I'm withdrawn.

I can't talk.

But you're talking now.

Yes, you are. I can hear you.

- You can hear me?

- Sure!

what's...

...the matter with you?

I was possessed by a demon.

oh, it's okay. He's gone.

Dr. Tuskin would like Sandra

to visit her voice therapy class.

Hey, Mom. You know

what happened to her?

You're talking!

Talking!

can you hear me, Mother?

She's talking!

- God...

- Call Gene.

Are you all right?

Mother, it's all right.

- What is it?

- Regan's got Sandra talking!

- What?

- I've got to take her right home!

Her father's got to hear

before she stops!

- She's not going to stop.

- No, don't stop, baby, no!

- Keep talking!

- Come on in my office.

No! Her father would never forgive me.

I've got to take her home!

All right, take her home.

Liz, you go with them.

come on.

what did you do?

Nothing. I just started

talking to her.

First she was talking inside,

and then she started talking outside.

Gene, do you think I could start

helping some of your other kids?

You know, Regan, it's very dangerous

to fool with other people's heads.

Sandra seems to be all right...

...but don't try that again.

- Until...

- Until what?

well, until you're older.

okay.

well, there's Sharon. Bye!

Don't tell Sharon because she'll just

call Mom and worry her. Okay?

- I don't want to hear any speculation.

- She entered her mind!

- Let's stick to science.

- Don't hide behind science.

Listen, I'm responsible for Regan

while her mother's away.

- You stay away from her! Cut it out!

- You must fight that demon inside her!

- It keeps her from spiritual power.

- Demons?

we make our own, up here.

You're obsessed with the idea!

I'm not! I'm fascinated,

but I know the dangers.

Father Merrin was afraid

he'd slip into admiration.

How about adulation?

Hello, Father.

How did you know I was coming here?

well, I didn't...

...for sure.

I'm not allowed to talk to you.

Doctor's orders.

Father?

- Do priests believe in ESP?

- Some do.

A French priest thought we'd all come

together in some sort of telepathy.

A kind of "world mind" in which

everybody would share.

when is that supposed to happen?

I don't know.

Father Merrin believed that, with

modern research, it could happen soon.

I mean the kind of research

Dr. Tuskin is doing.

But if it happens

before we're ready...

...we may find ourselves pointing

in the wrong direction, toward Satan.

Look, Father.

That's it!

That's where Father Merrin

fought Pazuzu.

You remember Father Merrin?

what else do you remember?

Everything.

Aren't you afraid?

I wish I could tell you not to be,

but I can't.

why wasn't that man with the leopard

afraid of Pazuzu?

I don't know.

- I'll try to find out.

- His name is Kokumo.

Kokumo...

If he can teach me

how he has survived Pazuzu...

...I'll come back and let you know.

I must go to Africa right away!

If I can find this man Kokumo,

it will prove...

...that the exorcisms were valid.

But more than that...

...remember how Merrin prophesied that

new men would arise to purge evil?

They may already be among us.

Kokumo could be one of them.

I saw him in a vision.

I saw his power over evil.

I've asked you to investigate

the exorcisms of Father Merrin...

...not to step into his shoes.

You are in dire need of prayer.

- I suggest you make a retreat!

- Why not an advance?

Lamont, you are in open defiance of

the church! I beg you to reconsider!

I have no choice but to relieve you

of your assignment.

You will refrain

from any further action.

we'll speak again after your retreat.

Thank you.

I am in mortal sin...

...disobedience, pride...

...but evil overwhelms us!

I had to disobey!

I had to disobey!

where is she?

She's on the roof. She's always there.

I can't lock her up.

- I wish you'd help Father Lamont.

- What do you mean?

He needs your help.

How can I help him? I don't know how.

Yes, you do.

Regan, what are you talking about?

well, you know. Going into synch,

trying to reach him like that.

But you told me he's in Africa.

when you're in synch, it's different.

I mean, it doesn't matter

where you are.

You can find them.

You know...

...help them.

Is that why you haven't been

coming to see me?

- Because I won't let you go into synch?

- Yes.

I can't.

I have to do what I think is

best for you.

Is there anyone who would remember

Father Merrin?

Perhaps the abbot. I can ask him.

He knew Father Merrin.

He says he was very holy.

Did he know Kokumo?

Merrin came up here once

with a boy who was very sick.

There was an accident.

A wind, what do you say...?

A devil wind.

And a monk fell to his death.

The big wind raised much dust,

and the body was never found.

They searched all over, everywhere.

He didn't fall there. He bounced

on that ledge and fell there.

I'll show you!

Be careful!

wait! Wait for me!

over there!

In the cleft of that rock over there.

- How did you know the body was here?

- He was killed by the demon Pazuzu!

I flew with Pazuzu in a trance!

It's difficult to explain.

I was under hypnosis.

No, Father! Please wait!

Stop, Father, wait!

Father!

Please!

No!

Father Abbot! Listen to me!

He will not speak

to a devil-worshiper!

I am not a devil-worshiper!

Please don't drug me.

Don't put me under, Gene.

I'm okay now.

- It'll make you sleep.

- But it will stop me from dreaming.

Maybe that will be good for a while.

But he needs me.

I've got to find him.

You'll be fine. You'll be just fine.

You're trying to kill my...

My soul.

A Muslim city with mud walls, golden.

Mud city with golden walls?

Sounds like Jepti.

- You know it?

- I know every holy place in Africa.

Religion's my business.
