You got 20 minutes.
To get inside my mind
Is this what you wanted
Get me all turned around
Tell me baby
Hello?
No! No!
What's going on in there?
John own memories are intruding.
He's having a seizure.
Marjorie! Get in there! Now!
Senator Rockford has been
identified as the target...
of an FBI investigation, involving
embezzlement and accusations of blackmail.
Senator!
I whole heartedly and emphatically deny any
and all allegations leveled against me.
services of Mindscape...
the world's top memory
detective agency...
to gather information about his past and
help the FBI with the investigation.
Memory detectives, as
they're commonly known...
have experienced a resurgence
in recent years...
thanks to the growing number of cases
solved using the remote viewing technique.
In the early 70 s, the
Defense Intelligence Agency
began conducting top secret experiments
with people with psychic abilities
to help gather intelligence
for modern warfare.
They came across a
group of ESP's...
that had the ability to
access people's memories
and observe them as they were experienced
in the past by the subjects.
The findings of memory detectives do
not yet carry the same weight...
as DNA evidence in court...
but currently prove more
reliable than polygraph tests.
They say, remote viewing is nothing
more than an elaborate scam...
but the reality is, remote viewers
have been solving cases...
that have been cold for years.
Most recently, the murder of
child actress Kate Henderson...
was solved by memory
detective John Washington.
Sh*t.
Hello?
- Ah, hello!
- Good Morning!
I'm calling about
the house for sale.
No... no... we're not selling
the house anymore, I'm sorry.
Well... the agency listing says
it's still active.
Yeah, I know it's still listed at the
agency, but we're not selling it, okay?
Mr. Washington's own
traumatic memories...
were blending in with
his clients memories...
which impaired his ability
to focus during sessions.
And thank you.
Now it seems, Senator Rockford is betting
his political career on Mindscape...
the prime memory detective
agency in the world.
The rumors that the Mindscape program
is dangerous, are unfounded.
John is here.
John... how are you?
I'm great.
You're still taking the medication?
No, I'm done with all that.
Well, you're lucky
the stroke was mild.
You could be relearning
your abc's right now.
That's true.
Yes?
Uh... I'm good.
Nice.
You met anybody recently?
You know, John, maybe it's time
to get back in the running.
I'm not there yet.
It's been two years.
You should move on from
what happened to your wife.
And you know it wasn't your fault.
Yeah, well...
Oh, sh*t! Sh*t! Sorry.
Ah, don't worry about it.
Don't worry!
I'm so sorry.
Don't worry about it.
I'm sorry.
Here... sit down!
Sorry.
I heard Senator Rockford on... TV...
talking about the possibility
Oh, yeah, yeah. Peter Lundgren
is already working on the case.
Rockford hired him.
Lundgren?
C'mon! I was better than him
on my worst day!
Yeah, but gifts like
yours need to be used.
You've been out of
the game for months.
And Lundgrens' success nowadays
is close to 100 percent.
What's the matter?
To be honest, I'm
running out of money.
You still have the beach house?
Yeah.
Go ahead. Sell it.
I'm not ready to sell it yet.
What I was wondering was whether I
could do something for Mindscape.
As it happens, I, uh...
right for, perfect actually.
Her name is Anna.
Oh, you're kidding.
Forget about the name, right?
She used to be my patient
when she was little.
Very special girl...
she's a teenager now, but I don't
think a... a doctor can help.
Maybe a viewer can.
Well, what's her problem?
She's on a hunger strike.
All you have to do is get her to eat.
Just tell the parents to
hide the fashion magazines.
John...
You know, it could be a quick one for you,
if you didn't wanna sell the beach house.
Hi John, I'm so happy
you're back in the saddle.
Anna's still refusing to eat,
trying to pressure them...
into letting her out of the house.
She's very fragile,
so tread carefully.
Try to find a trauma for her
therapist to work on... bye.
Thank you so much for
working on Anna's case.
I'm Michelle.
John.
And this is Anna's
stepfather, Robert.
Sebastian speaks
very highly of you.
Even as a baby, Anna was unusual.
She didn't smile when you smiled at
her, but she didn't cry much, either.
I would say she was unusually
focused for a child, always calm.
She looked at things as if she
already knew what they were.
Later, of course, we took her to a specialist,
and her IQ score came back off the charts.
When was the last time she ate?
She stopped eating one week ago.
She's taking vitamins and
drinking water, but nothing else.
In my opinion, she should be... in a
place that can provide the proper care.
I'm sure Anna can get better here.
Mr. Washington, ah... as I'm
sure you can appreciate...
this is a matter that
requires great discretion.
I will need you to sign a
non-disclosure contract...
that anything revealed in Anna's memories can't
be disseminated beyond Michelle and myself.
Of course.
Anna is so special, she's
so many talents, she's...
Gifted.
Yes, gifted.
I think there are
better words for it.
Such as?
I would say haunted.
What happened to
Anna's real father?
He died... when I was pregnant.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Does Anna get along with Robert?
Not well, lately... but he's
tried to do his best for her.
I see.
This way.
Is there any specific reason
why Anna is refusing to eat?
She wants to go back to school,
but that's impossible.
I'm sure Sebastian told you
about her cutting herself.
We've had to remove all sharp
objects from her room.
We need to protect her.
From what?
To protect her, from herself.
Sweetie. This is John...
the gentleman I told you
was coming to visit.
Aren't you late for
your AA meeting, Mom?
Can I have a seat?
Can I have a seat?
Do you mind?
Do you mind?
We won't guess the next one for sure,
so go ahead, make yourself comfortable.
That's quite the party
trick you have there.
What's the metronome for?
I like the rhythm when I draw.
It's soothing.
Better?
Much.
Anna, you know what catabolysis is?
If you don't eat, your
organs are gonna fail.
John, do you know what "prana" is?
It's sanskrit, it means vital life.
There are Yogis in
India who rarely eat.
They get all their energy or
"prana" from the air and the sun.
Is that what you're doing?
Are you a doctor?
No, but I do have to ask
you some questions.
I would like you to tell me
what expression you see.
What am I getting in exchange for
making you earn some of Robert's money?
Well, you might get to
know yourself better.
What do you see?
Malice.
I'm kidding.
He's expressing happiness,
maybe even affection.
What about this guy?
