until we can evict it.

What's all that for?

Uh, this is gonna lower

his heart rate and EEG

to a stasis state,

leaving the brain

as close to death

as physically possible.

When I hit REM, I'll ride

into Cameron's subconscious,

begin dismantling the illusion.

The trick is

I only have eight minutes

before my heart gives out,

which isn't a lot of time.

Sometimes we get lucky.

It's as easy as the glitch.

- The glitch?

- The time glitch.

We've discovered that time is

meaningless in the subconscious,

so watches, clocks,

anything that tells time,

freezes at the time

of the victim's possession.

It'll be OK.

I'm gonna help your son.

OK, boss.

You're good to go.

Keep this area clear

in case he tries to jump.

You know the drill.

Don't let the boy touch you

or anyone else.

Don't let me

touch you or anyone else.

Oliver, I get anywhere near

flatlining,

you yank my ass out

with the Narcan.

Yeah. I've got the escape hatch

right here, boss.

Only if you

absolutely have to.

Dr Ember.

Good luck in there.

Thank you.

Dr Ember.

So nice of you to join us.

Starting the clock, boss.

Are you ready,

Dr Ember?

Then let the games begin.

Nice, Cameron. Keep it

going. Fastball next, buddy.

Over the plate. Nice!

Nice catch.

Beautiful.

How is he?

Seven minutes to go.

So far, so good.

Cameron.

Cameron. Listen,

I know you don't know me.

But I'm here to help you.

I just want to talk.

What's wrong?

You're...

You're bleeding.

- What?

- Help! We need help over here.

- Oh, no.

- Cameron.

Cameron, come with me, buddy.

Come on.

- Wait. Cameron.

- It's OK. You'll be OK.

Sir,

I need to lay you down.

No, no, no, no, no.

Lie down. Lie down. You need to

lie down. This is serious.

No, no. Hold on.

Oh, crap!

He's gonna flatline.

Ah, there's a man bleeding.

I'm in the south-east section

of Douglas Park.

Get away from me.

This isn't happening.

You have to calm down. I'm...

I'm not sure what's wrong.

Sir.

I think I've found your problem.

I'm sorry, boss.

Your EKGs were off the chart,

OK, so we had to pull you out.

Well, I'm not gonna say

I told you so.

Yeah, well, you just did.

Alright, boss.

Let's get you to the hospital,

get you checked out, OK?

I'm fine, Oliver.

You're fine?

What the hell happened

in there?

It was only a few minutes,

Oliver.

A couple of minutes?

Boss, your heart stopped.

Where are you going?

Dan used to play

in the park with Cameron,

before he lost his job.

The entity is playing into Cameron's desire.

- His desire?

That man has never said

"I love you" once to that boy.

Cameron doesn't want anything to

do with his father, believe me.

Well, maybe you don't want that,

but I'm telling you,

Dan was in the park

with him.

She's giving him

what he wants.

We need to break down

her illusion.

It's the only way

to free the boy.

Where's his father?

- He's probably getting drunk.

- We need to bring him here.

That man is not coming

anywhere near my son.

- Listen...

- He broke Cameron's arm!

This entity is strong.

Probably the strongest

I've ever encountered.

To get your son back, I'll need

all the ammunition I can get.

- No. It's not gonna happen.

- Damn it, listen to me!

I am too close.

I have come too far.

So you either work with me

or you lose your son.

Ms Sparrow, just please tell us

where to find him.

There's a bar

on 20th and Scarborough.

That's where

he usually goes.

Thank you.

You know,

I'm so old-fashioned

- I'm so old-fashioned...

- Hey!

I'm in a wheelchair.

I can see you're not a fan

of self-preservation.

- Not much left to preserve.

- Is that self-pity I hear?

No. That's freedom, baby.

Freedom.

Focus on the important sh*t.

Mmm. Found him.

Mr Sparrow.

Your son's in trouble.

I need you to come with me.

- What are you, another lawyer?

- Do I look like a lawyer?

Your son is in trouble.

I need another beer,

so unless you're buying...

You're so funny.

You want me

to break YOUR arm, huh?

I don't know what they told you,

but I never touched him.

I don't give a sh*t.

I said your son's in trouble...

because of you.

Dr Ember!

Ember, stop!

Why didn't you call me?

- You're here, aren't you?

- Jesus Christ, Lindsey!

How long were you gonna

keep this from me?

- Why would I tell you anything?

- Because he's my son!

If we're done flirting here?

- Cameron needs us.

- Dan.

You need to go

with Dr Ember now.

- Show me where my son is.

- With pleasure.

Call him by his name.

Remind him you're in the room.

Tell him you love him.

Talk about details that only

you and he would know about.

OK? He'll hear you.

He'll wake up.

- You sure this is gonna work?

- No. I'm not.

- Then why should I do this?

- I would. If it were my son.

Like I said before, I don't know

what they told you, OK,

but I never touched him,

OK, ever.

- I never touched him.

- Save it for Cameron.

Alright, we have your back -

if something goes wrong,

you get a bad feeling,

we'll get you out.

Like what?

What's gonna happen?

Like green vomit?

Are you talking about the whole

head-turning thing? Come on!

No matter what,

don't touch him.

- Come on.

- Dan, I mean it.

No physical contact.

Do you understand me?

Yeah, I won't...

I won't touch him.

Let's go.

Hey, Cam.

It's me. It's Dad.

It's been a while, buddy.

I haven't...

Haven't seen you, like, forever.

You know,

I tried calling a few times.

I guess my messages

weren't getting through.

I remember you had

that sick curve ball.

Just me and you

down at the park.

You were good, man. You should

try out for the team.

Cameron.

It's...it's Dad.

Slow and easy.

It's working.

Cameron's surfacing.

- Dad?

- Yeah, buddy, it's me. It's Dad.

Cameron, I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry I hurt you.

You've gotta believe me.

It was an accident.

If I could take it back,

I'd take it back.

- What do we got?

- There's a lot of movement.

Yeah, it's bouncing around

all over the place.

What happened to you, Cameron?

How did this happen?

I forgive you.

What? I can't...

I can't hear you, buddy.

Say it...say it again.

I forgive you, Dad.

You do?

Yeah. I want it to be

like it was.

- Can it be like before?

- Yeah. It can be...

It can be like before. Promise.

I'm gonna clean up. OK?

I'll do anything for you.

Can we go to the park again?

We can go to the park.

We can go to a carnival.

You want to go on the rides?

- We can do all that.

- Really?

Really. Just as soon

as you're better, OK?

I love you, Dad.

Cam...

- Oh, my God!

- No, stay back! Don't touch him!

Oh, God!

God is not here.

Stop! Don't do this.

It's me you want.

Please follow me.

Our people are downstairs.

Why did you say,

"It's me you want"?

There's something

you're not telling me.

You're not here to help Cameron.

You're here

for some other reason.

- Doesn't matter why I'm here.

- Dan is dead!

What the hell is going on here?!

Talk to me or get the hell out!

When I was 26...

..I discovered
