And quite frankly,
an allegation from a woman
with a history
of mental illness
and a juvenile conviction
for manslaughter--
well, I'm just not sure
how that's gonna help me--
or you,
for that matter.
I mean,
it's all in here.
You were admitted
to this hospital
for a psychiatric
evaluation
and then later transferred
Okay!
Go home to your husband,
make up with him.
It's for the best.
It really is.
The thing is,
Mrs. Hanniger,
you had access
Tell me about the conviction
for manslaughter.
It's all there.
It's all there
in my father's file,
right there.
I want you to tell me.
It was my birthday.
September 3rd,
my 1 0th birthday.
What happened?
I don't want to play
Daddy's special little game anymore
because it hurts.
I don't want Daddy
to kiss me on my mouth
and make me sticky.
I don't want him
to lift up my dress
and tear off
my panties.
There must be somebody
who can make him stop.
Roslyn.
No, Daddy. I don't want
to play that game, no.
Roslyn.
Mommy.
Mommy, help me.
Roslyn.
Roslyn.
No. No.
Mommy, help me.
No Daddy,
I don't want to.
Mommy, help me.
The door is now
half open, Roslyn.
Whatever else
is beyond it
will find a way out
sooner or later.
Before Cole,
I never thought
there could be anything
other than sex with a man.
He taught me how to love.
He's not a killer.
Even the cops say he's not.
I love my husband.
Let me out of here,
you piece of sh*t.
They have you
listed as--
Motherf***er!
They have you listed
as Jane Doe.
So why don't you
tell me your name?
F*** you.
Well, there's a whole
chart on me.
All it says is
that you're a woman
age 25 to 35,
blonde hair,
green eyes.
That's all
we have on you.
So why don't you
fill in the gaps, hmm?
Okay well,
I've been here before.
You have?
Oh really?
Yeah, there is a whole--
there's a whole file on me.
B*tch.
Well, if there's
a whole file on you...
Hi.
What are you
doing here?
I'm covering your shift.
You have the night off.
It was Beth's idea.
She was supposed to call you.
Hmm.
I mean, are you--
are you sure?
Yeah, I'm positive.
Go enjoy your evening.
You're gonna be
okay though?
Yeah, there's plenty of work
to keep me busy.
Come on.
You're kidding me.
Come on.
That was delicious.
Thank you.
We should be able to talk
about things, you know?
Like what?
Like--
Iike what's going on
inside your head,
Iike how you feel.
You know I love you.
I love you too.
But that's not
what I meant.
What?
You don't know what's
real anymore, do you?
Well...
whatever it is
that's going on
inside your head,
it's destroying
our marriage.
I had a fairly normal
childhood, Roslyn.
You know that.
And I've tried
to imagine
what it must have
been like for you.
But they're your
nightmares, not mine.
I can't make up for
what happened to you.
But whatever it is
that's haunting you,
you gotta deal
with this now,
before it's too late
for us.
Roslyn.
I'm sorry, what?
You were daydreaming.
What were you
dreaming of?
My mother.
She died,
what, 1 3 days after
you killed your father?
Yes.
Tell me,
what is your earliest
memory of her?
Do you recall?
one evening
in the hallway.
She was in her bedroom
brushing her hair.
She had
the most beautiful
Iong blonde hair.
I wanted
hair like that.
And what else
were you thinking of
as you watched her
brush her hair?
I wanted her dead.
I wanted her dead.
Why?
Because she was a woman.
Because she could
understand how I felt
each time
he touched me...
but she ignored me
when I screamed
for help.
She just--
she walked away.
Did you know
that the Nighthawk
also chooses women
with a common
characteristic?
Each of his victims
share a similar feature.
They all have
blonde hair.
Mommy,
you're hurting me.
I won't hurt you if you
keep up with me.
- Where are we going, Mommy?
- We're going on a journey, okay?
No!
Where are you
going, Mommy?
To the car.
Mommy, where are you
taking me?
Come on, Roslyn.
Oh sh*t.
No.
What are you
doing, Mommy?
Mommy!
Mommy, no!
Mommy!
No. Mommy,
what are you doing?
Oh sh*t.
Mommy, stop it.
Mommy, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Stop it.
I don't like
this smell, Mommy.
No.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I don't want your children
to suffer like you did.
It has to stop here.
Please, no.
No. Help!
Mom, don't!
Mom!
Help me!
Help!
Why did your mother
not want you to live?
I got out.
I got out
of that car.
Yes yes, you did.
But look at the scars
it left,
the deep
psychological scars.
You still haven't
told me why,
Roslyn--
why your mother
wanted you to die.
Stop it.
You can tell me.
Stop it!
Remember our
breathing exercises.
What are you doing?
Breathe breathe.
No.
No?
All right,
then I'll tell you.
- Stop it.
- It's because she knew, didn't she?
- Stop it.
- She knew what you would become.
She knew that you
would carry on
the cycle of abuse.
The abused becomes the abuser.
Isn't that right?
- Yes.
You see,
you must never be allowed
to have children.
Please stop.
No, please.
Please don't.
Stop.
No no no no!
No no!
I want my baby!
What's going on, Roslyn?
Where have you been?
The psych ward.
The psych ward?
Do you want to tell me
what you're doing with this file
and with blood
all over it?
You're supposed to be
filing these away, not ruining them.
Why do they call him
the Nighthawk?
What?
Why the Nighthawk?
Because of the way
he kills--
to the back
of the neck.
You're scaring me
with this sh*t.
What were you doing
up in the psych ward?
Your hand.
I cut it
peeling potatoes.
Maybe you would change
the dressing for me?
It's this place,
isn't it?
It must be creepy
at night.
But if it's
any comfort to you,
if you go up
to the fifth floor,
will be around.
What?
Dr. Diaz-- the doctor
I told you about.
turn up tonight,
start with
the psych ward records.
Dr. Diaz?
No. Dr. Clement.
Doctor...
Dr. Clement.
Dr. Irvin Clement.
I told you you weren't
supposed to be
Iooking at those files.
That's where you got
that name.
It's the doctor that admitted you
to the psych ward
when you were a kid.
He had an unorthodox way
of dealing with his patients.
What are you
talking about?
He was killed.
One of his
psych ward patients
stabbed him in the head
with a scalpel.
He was alive for days
fighting for his life.
What are you saying?
Have you been talking
to Cole?
Roslyn!
Roslyn!
Shut up.
Did I frighten you?
What do I do?
...violent killer.
Bodies were all found
in the same neighborhood,
so he's someone
in the area.
A psych ward patient
stabbed him in the head.
Dr. Clement.
F***!
No no no no!
Why do they call him
the Nighthawk?
...bring anyone here because
they know it has been closed.
Useless!
Roslyn!
What's with the tape
