Look, he tried

to blackmail me, Dan.

Enough is enough!

And he wanted you to disappear!

Oh. Oh.

Oh, that's why he did

it to Halsey.

What? You've seen Halsey?

He lobotomized him, so he could

control him in case

he ever tried to talk or tell

somebody what happened.

So he could protect his discovery.

- Yes.

- Very clever.

I gotta tell Meg.

What does Meg

have to do with this?

Hill's got this weird file on her,

it's full of napkins and hair

and photographs.

I think he's projected some sort

of psychotic need onto her.

Yes.

Alan.

Alan.

Oh... yes...

Alan.

It's... time for you...

to come out now.

Is that you, Dr. Hill?

Of course it's me.

Break time.

That's... better.

Meg? Meg!

Dan? Dan...

- I was so afraid.

- What is it?

What's the matter?

Well... I don't know.

I was just worried about you.

Why?

L...l just feel horrible

about everything.

I guess I'm just getting paranoid.

It's just...

so hard to lose you.

You should go away.

Transfer to another school.

Don't worry about me.

You're the one

that should get away.

Go live your life.

Find somebody.

I tried to hate you.

I wanted so much to hate you.

I love you.

No! Daddy!

Dr. Halsey.

No, Daddy!

Oh, no, Daddy!

Daddy! Daddy!

The door.

Oh... yes.

Dan? Dan?

Dan?

Come on.

Oh, well, you'll be all right.

Meg!

Oh my god.

Where, Herbert?

He's at the hospital I imagine.

Can you stand up?

Let's go.

Oh... Meg.

I've... always...

admired your beauty, my dear.

I think I've always loved you.

You will love me.

You will.

Please!

Please stop!

Let me go!

That's it, my dearest Meg...

more passion!

- Oh my god!

- Yes, my love!

I must say, Dr. Hill...

I'm very disappointed in you.

You steal the secret

of life and death,

and here you are trysting

with the bubble-headed coed,

you're not even

a second-rate scientist.

Mr. West.

I'm actually glad to see you.

It saves me the trouble

of having to send for you.

You'll never get credit

for my discovery.

Who's gonna believe

a talking head?

Get a job in a sideshow.

I wonder why

an intelligent young man like yourself

should make such a foolish,

fatal mistake,

of coming here to challenge me.

Oh... l have a plan.

So do I.

Let go of me!

Enough!

I will show you power, Mr. West!

My discovery,

a laser surgical drill.

It makes possible a new

technique in lobotomy,

which results in total mastery

of the human will.

Re-animated subjects

have proven to be the best.

They will give me power!

Undreamed of power.

Stay behind me.

Daddy, listen to me.

It's Megan, Megan!

- Hill, they'll kill her!

- Then I'll give her life!

Look at me!

Meg, come on!

Let's go! Come on!

Wait!

I am not through here!

Megan, no!

- Let me go!

- I told you, I have a theory!

- Overdose!

- No!

Herbert!

Look out!

Daddy!

My notes.

MY notes!

Let's go.

Come on!

My god! Megan!

Take her into number three!

Bring her this way!

Hurry, hurry,

she's got nothing.

Activating.

Air on.

Somebody give me some paste!

On three.

Okay, everybody off.

Clear.

Nothing.

Bringing back air.

The trachea's fractured.

She's fixed and dilated.

No response.

Cain... Cain.

I love you.
