Respire Page #3

I'm not too big on that.

Bye.

Stop!

Don't ever f***ing

touch me!

Call the f***ing

cops, Morgan!

I wouldn't do that

if I were you.

Unless you wanna

explain this.

I'll get you for this.

I'll f***ing get you

for this, you crazy b*tch!

What are we still

driving around for?

I need to get to

a hospital.

The b*tch knocked

out my teeth.

Morgan.

I'm gonna get her.

Her and that ugly

little b*tch.

I'm gonna get em both.

It's her.

Lady, what is your

f***ing deal?

Where have you been?

Look at me.

Everything's gonna be okay.

Just tell me what's going on.

I don't even remember

drawing those,

And then there's this

noise in my head and...

... everything goes blank.

And this was after

you used the vial?

And those people who

busted up the shop...

that's what they wanted?

Yeah.

Then let's go see them.

Nuh uh. Just you.

It's alright, Ruby.

I was beginning to wonder

if you'd ever show up.

Yeah, well,

My circumstances have changed a

little bit since the last time we met.

Blackouts?

Personality changes?

Something like that.

What else?

This is what else.

So now you've come

looking for answers.

What makes you think

I have them?

When you came into my

shop that day, you knew.

You knew I had opened

that vial.

Do you know what

free radicals are?

Free radicals are the

molecules in our bodies.

Which cause aging.

And they have everything to do

with what's happening to you.

In the 30's,

A doctor named Randolph

Kaminsky held a test study.

It was for a new drug

he developed

Which was supposed to

eliminate free radicals...

creating longevity,

And healing incurable

diseases.

Kaminsky had a hard time

finding volunteers, though.

So, he made a deal with

the penal system.

The inmates on death row

were offered parole

Or a reduced sentence if they

volunteered to be the lab rats.

What he didn't tell

the inmates...

... was what the drug

would actually do.

He gave it to them...

... and they died.

Instantly.

The drug only worked if it had a

chemical reaction inside the body first.

Something about the breath exhaled

at the moment of death made it work.

He collected them.

And the other half

of the group,

Who were all suffering

from terminal illnesses,

Including Kaminsky himself,

Inhaled them.

And they were cured.

If it's a cure,

Then why am I having

these violent urges,

And these visions of

people being murdered.

What you didn't know,

Was the one that inhaled

the breath of those inmates,

Would get something

besides longevity.

New personalities?

And memories.

This is most likely the

formula for the drug.

Is there a way to

reverse this or not?

The only way to reverse what's

happening to you is inhale another vial.

Kaminsky may have had more

of them in his possession.

He's the only one who

knew where they were.

Which means...

you're the only one

who knows.

The vials would have

a certain market value.

So we...

... may be able to

help each other.

Did you come to do the

other side today, or..?

Two Baltimore men were sentenced

to 15 years in federal prison today

For attempting to sell an undercover

officer $40 worth of cocaine.

So you were right.

There are more vials out there.

You found one?

No.

But if we can figure

out where they are,

Then we can help

your sister.

Susan, that's great!

There's only one thing: she's

gonna have to inhale two of them.

One to cure her,

And then one to reverse it.

It's hard to explain,

But it's at least

worth a shot.

Yeah... yeah.

Where do we look?

I don't know.

If you want, we can talk

about it over dinner.

My treat this time.

I gotta get my keys.

Okay.

Police are asking for your

help tonight in finding

The assailant of two teenagers who

were found murdered in Cherry Hill.

Morgan Raif, and Josh Foster,

both 18,

Were found slain in an abandoned

lot just outside of Baltimore,

Victims of a brutal

stabbing.

Police are asking anyone with any

information related to these deaths

To please come forward.

Hey. What's up?

I have to go. I'm sorry.

What are you doing?

I cannot explain.

I just have to go.

Sue?

Where are you going?

To find something.

Susan, how did you know

this stuff was here?

Kaminsky knew.

I can't explain. Let's go.

Hold your breath.

Do not breathe in.

No matter what.

I thought they said that breathing

in another vial would reverse it.

This is something different.

This is something else.

You have to go. You have

to get out of here now!

I'm telling you something is

wrong and I can't control it.

You have to go now!

Nina, I don't want you coming

back here until this is all over.

Do you understand me?

I can help you figure

this out.

No. If anything ever happened to

you I would never forgive myself.

I want you to go home,

And I want you to stay

there until I call you.

This is my sister,

Christine.

You know, I told you

I would call you.

Hey, it's Raif. I think

we should get together and

Talk about why you ran

out of here the other day.

I -- I can't.

I have to go.

Who the hell are

you people?

Susan. Calm down!

Calm down?

I found a film.

That bit -- About breathing

in a second vial --

That was all bullshit!

There is no way to reverse

this, is there?

You said that all of the

vials are from inmates.

You never mentioned anything

about psychotics.

The ones we breathed in

were from the inmates.

The others were supposed to

be for the next test group.

Well thanks to you leaving

out that little tidbit,

My friend almost died

helping me get them.

Hey wait. You found them?

What the hell do you

want with em?

What is it? Some life long dream of

yours to be a f***ing mental patient?

Of course not.

We want them destroyed.

Answers. Now.

I told you Kaminsky was

trying to increase longevity.

It worked.

Immortality?

No no no. We can be killed.

But we'll never get sick,

we'll never grow old.

Neither will you.

Oh. I'll just be a

f***ing murderer.

Susan, we were in the

same boat as you.

The violent tendencies,

the blackouts.

But, together, we beat it.

So can you.

There was another patient

in the film:
a man.

What?

He's the one who

gave me this.

And this.

He wanted us to help

him kill Kaminsky,

And get the formula

for the drug.

And we refused.

He didn't take it well.

He was the only one of us

that seemed to get off on it.

The power of killing.

We never saw him

again after that.

He's the one that paid me for

Kaminsky's breath box in the first place.

That's why i canceled

your bid.

He's alive?

Look. If you're serious about

destroying these, I'm with you.

I swear to god,

if you f*** with me --

No no no. We're serious.

What's wrong?

They aren't here.

Where are they?

I dunno. They were here.

Sh*t.

Shannon.

He's not here.

He was.

Ugh. What is that?

Oh god.

Hey. Long time no see, huh?

This isn't a reunion.

Where are the vials?

I don't have any vials.

Bullshit. You broke

into the store.

And you took them.

Where are they?
