Medium Raw: Night of the Wolf Page #5

- But I only need one--

just one toe.

Oh, Jamie told me about you.

The blood is traveling to your head--

leaves less blood in your feet.

Won't hurt as much. Won't be as messy.

If you even look at my feet,

I will kill you.

I was only gonna take one--

the second from the last.

You wouldn't miss it.

I know it's not needed for balance

or stability.

It's not needed for anything really.

It's the little piggy who had none.

It's just not important.

They're all important.

Let me down.

Okay.

Where did you get that hat?

The kitchen.

The same place I got these.

The kitchen.

They're leftovers.

Leftovers?

Yeah. They--

they won't be needing them anymore.

No. Mabel.

Sorry. I'm so sorry.

Don't think I'm done with you.

Sorry.

Now, Jamie, the trick is

to gut them while they're still fresh.

Now I know some people would disagree,

but that's the way I like to do it.

And you can maximize the amount of meat

you can freeze for later.

Now the next step is

to take off the head just like a fish.

We'll get the eyes later.

Mm, they're such a delicacy.

Now then

you take a sharp cutting knife like this

and you pierce the flesh

just under the ribcage.

Here, I like to call this

a gutting knife--

you know, cutting knife-- gutting knife.

Anyway, so then you make a straight line

down from the abdomen

just-- just above his wee-wee.

Ooh, looks like he's been cut before.

Oh, I can be so nasty sometimes.

Now comes the fun part.

Okay, hold these.

Come on, hold these.

There.

Good.

Oh, Jamie, that is so gross.

You scream like a girl.

So do you.

You don't see me judging.

Where's Dr. Parker?

I was gonna go check his office.

What are you still doing here?

It's a long story.

You think we should go in?

Dr. Parker?

He's not here.

This doesn't make any sense.

What is it?

This is Dr. Parker's file on Grierson.

You shouldn't be reading this.

Okay, but I am. Look.

if I'm reading it correctly, it says

Grierson was already a patient here,

but under Dr. Parker Senior's care.

But the name on the file is Mason Crane.

Well, I'm sure there's

some sort of explanation for this.

Of course there's an explanation for it,

but this is the first time

I've heard of it,

and I'm gonna ask Dr. Parker why.

Where are you going?

We should wait here.

Right?

Oh, I could get used to this.

On behalf of the board of directors

at Parker's Asylum,

we would like to wish you

a safe and happy holiday.

Carl?

Merry Christmas.

Jamie, are you paying attention?

Good.

Now the next thing we do

with our rib dish--

we put it in the oven for 88 minutes,

not 90. 88,

and cook it at 375 degrees

on the top rack,

because we don't want to lose

the vitamins now, do we?

And then ta-dah!

Simple as dimple pie.

Between us,

I'd say you have a better rack

than old buddy boy in there.

But friends just don't eat friends.

I mean, what kind of person would I be

to eat you for dessert, huh?

I'm not saying you wouldn't taste good.

On the contrary,

I'm sure

your tight legs

are juicy.

And with a cherry glaze--

mm mm mm.

Oh, sometimes I get so carried away.

Let's make the eyeball spread.

Jamie,

I gotta say I'm having a wonderful time.

I'd rather be here with you

than with anyone--

Now what did you have to go

and do that for?

Oh my God.

Argh!

We were having such a good time.

And then you had to go and ruin it

by stabbing me in the back.

Jamie, I thought we were friends.

We were, Mabel.

We were friends.

But what do you expect?

You're cooking half my staff for dinner.

And Pete--

oh my God.

Jamie.

Mabel,

we're not that close.

No, but we're close enough.

Aww, did Jamie have a boo-boo?

Mabel, please.

No more "pleases," Jamie.

I think it's time we made

Jamie a la mode.

Harold,

it's me--

your attorney.

Harold, listen to me.

Listen to me.

I found a file that shows

that you were treated here before

by Dr. Parker's father.

Now they're trying to cover it up

and I don't know why.

But this is new information.

We can get you a new hearing.

We can get you to a new

treatment facility,

take you to somewhere

that has some goddamn windows.

Oh God.

I just-- I just--

I just want to help you.

I--

I just--

I just want to help you.

Okay?

Argh!

I don't-- I don't--

I don't want to die.

What a shame

To miss this

Time of year when all is white

We've been all so busy lately

Now I'm asking you to stay

Let's stay home...

Johnny.

Johnny.

Shh shh shh.

It's okay. It's me.

There's a really big guy

around the corner.

And we don't want to make him angry.

Understand?

Okay.

- Where have you been?

- Jamie's in trouble.

- Where?

- In the kitchen.

Okay, I want you to stay here

and only open the door if it's me,

Jamie or your grandma. You got it?

Got it.

I'll be right back.

Could I have the flashlight back?

Okay.

Thanks.

I got an idea.

Hey big guy.

Remember me?

Beat it.

I can't.

Jamie's in trouble.

The pretty lady?

Yeah, the pretty lady.

Go away.

I wish it didn't have to come to this

and I hope I'm not making

a giant mistake,

but, big guy,

it's time to get nuts.

Hey.

Yeah, that's it.

Come and get me.

Hey, Mabel, chew on this.

Okay, big boy,

let's see what you got.

Johnny.

Shh, it's okay. I got you.

Johnny, Mabel-- she--

I know.

I saw.

She killed Pete, Johnny.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Jamie,

I need you to be strong.

Sabrina's waiting for us.

Sabrina?

Where is she?

Grandma.

Please make the necessary arrangements

with scheduling.

Johnny, wait.

I just wanted to say something.

Jamie, there will be time for all that

when we get out of here.

No.

Johnny, I never stopped wearing

your wedding ring.

I just want you to know

I never stopped wearing it.

Sabrina. Sabrina, you can come out now.

Sabrina. Sabrina, you can come out now.

Sh*t.

Holy Father Who art in heaven,

hallowed be Thy name, Thy kingdom come,

Thy will be done!

- Sabrina.

- Sabrina.

Johnny, I'm over here.

- Sabrina.

- Jamie.

We're over here, Sabrina.

Johnny, I'm over here.

Sabrina.

It's okay.

We got you.

Thank God we found you.

Hey, kid, it's okay. We got you.

He's here.

Go. Get out of here.

I'm not leaving without you.

Just go.

Sabrina, go go go.

If you want them,

you're gonna have to go through me.

Jamie, run! Run as fast as you can!

Jamie, he's gonna cut you off. Go go go!

Jamie?

It's gonna be okay.

Be strong.

What the hell do you want?

I'm sorry,

really sorry.

I'm over it. Now get out of here.

She's gone.

I'm sorry, she's gone.

Oliver, if you know where Jamie is,

by God you'd better tell me.

The walls-- if you listen

they tell you secrets--

secrets only the walls could know.

I know secrets too.

The spirits--

they're crazy too, you know.

What are you babbling about?

The land, this building.

Listen. Listen.

I don't hear anything.

If you want to know, then listen!

Listen.

They hide

deep in the ground.

Your answer

lies there.

Are you the Woodcutter?
