-There are cops all over the f***ing place, would you shut the f*** up?

-I'm saying it's retribution, okay, it's retribution.

We'll find who did this.

How?, You see that?

Would you calm down?

What?

Why should I, mate?

Somebody knows, okay, somebody knows.

What?

I just don't think you

should be drinking.

Come on, just one.

I'm like the f***ing Holy Grail of transplant receptacle.

Holy sh*t, there's a special exhibit from the Korper Museum.

Did you know about this?

They have Harry's skeleton.

Yeah, I just don't think...

Wait, tomorrow's the last day you

weren't gonna mention this to me?

Terry.

Hey, button, button.

The Natural History museum has a special exhibition...

they've got Harry there.

Really? Can we go?

We'll go tomorrow.

I don't think it's a good idea.

It's fine, it's good, it's a great idea.

Will you listen to me?

You heard her, we're going.

Don't tell me what she

can or can't do

Hey, you really wanna keep that door locked.

What are you doing here?

Oh, I apologize...

Don't worry about it, I was just leaving.

Liz, Liz.

I didn't mean to catch you out.

It's just that Angie has been

talking about Harry for years.

I think it's gonna be good for her, I do.

You should come with us.

Fine, you're the father.

My room is pink, I like pink.

I like pink too.

I like red.

I love red.

Button, would you go put a movie on and

let Daddy talk to his friend for a minute?

Okay.

What's wrong with her? She what

she can't move her arms?

She has a genetic disorder.

What do you want?

Sorry for the intrusion.

if you had called me back...

I brought you this.

What is it?

Open it.

You know, if you're going the

way you're going on...

you can fully avenge this

crime by late summer.

And you really shouldn't leave things lying around.

I saw you last night.

Did you happen to see how his head came apart?

Hey, you're wearing the same boots.

I think you should leave.

I was in that house.

I saw what those monsters did.

I want this as much as you do.

Daddy, movie's not working.

Okay, baby, I'll be right there.

You're a good father, Terry.

Please, just go.

Okay, but if you're gonna

what you're gonna do.

You gotta find a cleaner way to do it.

The instructions are in the case.

That's him, Daddy.

Come on guys, this way.

Come on kids, right this way, please.

Alright, this is the skeleton of Harry Erlich.

Harry had a rare disease called

Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva.

which turned a lot of his connective tissue,

like tendon and muscle into bone.

As you can see the disease affected

most of his body so by the time he died...

Right before he turned forty,

he was almost entirely immobile.

And an interesting bit of trivia...

There is not a single wire...

or a drop of glue...

holding the skeleton together.

It's fused together like that

entirely by the disease.

Any questions?

Yeah?

How rare is this disease?

Very, very rare. It is believed to occur on

approximately 1 out of every 2 million people.

So you would have to be

incredibly unlucky.

Coz I think Perry has it.

Yeah, Perry doesn't have that.

I'm a monster, help me.

Shut your mouth, you little punk.

Terry, what are you doing?

That was stupid f***ing idea

taking her there.

It was like asking her to

accept she's gonna die.

That it's inevitable, well I refuse to accept that.

What are you gonna do when

she's older and it gets worse?

What if I die and she's left with you?

Then what are you gonna do?

So this is about, all this going to museum, huh.

You don't understand.

-- I'm not your ex-wife, okay or some 22-year old.

And I've never been scared to

spend my life as part of this family.

You're keeping something from me.

Something wrong with you?

I can't tell you.

Why?

I have to get back.

Three days ago, my brother's

life was brutally cut short.

Today, we've all lost part of us.

My brother meant something

different to each one of you.

But to me...he was my guardian angel.

Damn it.

Hello.

The service went late

and my car won't start.

I think somebody did something to it.

I'm parked two blocks away

on State and Hoover.

I think he's here.

I'll be right there.

Listen, you don't know me.

I didn't do those things.

I'm just an office clerk.

Hello.

We got him, the bait worked.

Please, stop it, listen to me.

I'm not like the others, I'm not.

They find the donors.

They, hurry things along.

They harvest.

Not me.

I didn't do any of that.

I just do paperwork.

I make sure the right person

gets what they take.

You traffic organs?

Have you ever known anybody

who was on the transplant list?

Anybody you care about.

Yes.

Well, you should understand.

We save people.

By killing people.

People who were gonna die anyway.

Terminal patients.

Please, don't you have

mouths to feed, man?

She called me crying.

Wondering where you are.

Well, she'd gone to sleep

half an hour ago.

You said that you'll always be here for her.

You promised her that.

The man with the vengeful heart.

There's your case.

Terry, I can't take that back.

If you're telling me that gun

is one murder weapon...

I can't take it back.

I don't want it anymore.

You can't walk away now.

You have to finish this.

For Vieillard.

I don't have to do anything for Vieillard

Your daughter.

She'll be in better hands.

She'll have no daddy.

Please.

You can't walk away now.

You don't understand.

This has to be finished.

You weren't there.

It took her five minutes.

Five minutes to die.

You didn't know her.

You and her?

Are you sleeping with Vieillard's wife?

Jess.

Nice spar, you see, he won't let you go.

He's got you for good.

I'm through with this.

I am through with this.

Hey, button.

I want you to think real hard, think of

something you always wanted to do with me.

Really?

Anything at all.

Except no trips to the moon.

Okay, my rocket's in the shop.

Go to the ballet.

Is that your first choice?

Then we're gonna go to the ballet, tonight.

Really? Is Liz coming?

I don't know.

She left, didn't she? Like mommy.

No, not like mommy.

Your mom left both of us.

Liz will always be there for you.

Maybe I'll wear my red dress.

Or what about the blue.

Do you like my blue one?

I love them both.

See you later, daddy.

Bye, button.

Is Angie alright?

Did something happen?

She's fine, she's good.

There's a message you left it made it

sound like something terrible.

She's at school, she's perfect.

So what's going on?

Liz, I'm dying and I want you

to watch out for Angie when I'm gone.

I don't buy that.

No, Liz, Liz, you know I love you.

Take care of my little girl.

And give her the things that I can't.

It's not fair.

My heart, my heart is making me kill people.

-- Stop it.

It's making me kill the people

that murdered my donor.

It's crazy.

Terry, stay with me.

Terry.

Terry.

Everything's fine, is it, Terry?

Please.

You're boyfriend is completely

numb when I do this...

I mean, he's not gonna feel any

of the things that I'll do.
