The Chameleon Page #2

Synopsis: Based on a true story, this film looks at what happens when a serial impostor in Europe passes himself off as a missing boy from Texas. The missing boy's family welcomes him as their son, but the FBI quickly realizes something is amiss. Does the family's eagerness to accept the impostor mean they are just happy to have their loved one back, or are they trying to hide a more sinister event - perhaps what happened to their boy? But even more - who is this impostor who has talked his way into the United States and a family's home?

Oh, yeah? What have you done now, still the same?

What would be the "same"?

It tastes as good as me. Probably memorized your file, right?.

Have you seen Nicholas since he returned?

Yes

How was it? Four years is a long time. Are you changed?

I'm not playing their game of cat and mouse.

I do not know what you're looking for, but I do not care. Yes, I saw my brother.

I went to see him, wanted to see how it looked, I was curious, you know?

What I know is that four years ago, Nicky was crap.

It gives me the impression that has changed too.

That's all.

I will not pretend that I love my brother.

He and I did not get along well, never did.

Yes, it has become. It's great for those who are happy to see him.

"Nicholas? Are you Nicholas, right?

I am researching your abduction.

Why is there an investigation?

Well ... because kidnapping is a crime, and you're the victim.

Our job is to find out who did it.

I do not want to talk more about that. The doctor said ...

What doctors?

Do you refused to do since you came back?

"Do not hurt me.

- What?

Nicholas, I just ...

"I just want ...

- Do not hurt me!

Do not touch! Do not you dare touch it!

Get out of here. Let calm to our family!

This article is incredible. Her sister could not praise you more.

"Harassment? "Verbal attack? And what says the guy is moving.

I told you to go quietly, Jennifer. The boy is under ...

your family is in shock.

Mitch is lying.

Is lying about her age, her accent, her abduction.

His attack in the parking lot was impressive, but it was a performance.

And the mother, brother, sister ... Is everyone lying?

Look, Mitch, just ... just give me one more week. Two, tops.

All right. But I want evidence, hard evidence, scientific.

Hey. I've forgotten, right, Nicky?

Come on up.

Come on!

Well, Nicky has grown a lot, right?

You're a man now. Right?

A man cursed.

Are you happy to see me?

"Yes.

"Me too.

I am very happy, Nicky. Very happy indeed.

Little Nicky.

You can walk home from here.

Do not miss, do not get hit by a car.

Would be a pity.

You should return from the dead and all that.

Come on, drink a little.

"No, that's fine.

"Come, drink a little.

Come on. Vamos!

That's right.

Hey, brother. No need to tell Kathy about our trip, right?

"Okay.

"We had a good time, is not it?

I thought I told you not come.

- "I escaped by Brendan?

- Escape?

Have not you been kidnapped?

Is not that what you told the police?

What reporters, all people with whom you spoke?

What happened exactly the day I disappeared?

Do not you remember anything?

Maybe it's better.

Please tell me I need to know.

You know what I mean? There are many people who would do anything ...

to forget their past and start fresh.

This may be your lucky break. You should use it.

"Mom, wait.

- Go!

I was never a good mother to you.

I guess you forgot that too, huh?

Was always weak. Never had a strong point.

There you have it with you all day.

What about the money that Brian and I got paid for the ticket?

How the hell we a. ..?

You were so stupid as to borrow the money. I told you.

You know, Brendan is right. We never should have gone for.

Do not say "we." You were.

"Come on Nicky, we'll be late to school.

"I'm not.

Come on, let's crap. You sister does it for you ...

Trust your sister. I just try to start from scratch, right?

I do not want to go. Nobody will force me to do what I want.

Nicky ...

So everything is as before, eh?

Are you here for a manicure?

I want to apologize for what happened the other day. I should not have insisted so.

Forget it, save yourself the trouble. What do you get?

- Are you here alone?

"Maybe he's waiting for his mom.

My mom gave me permission to be out until midnight.

Until then, I can do what I want.

Where'd you get that accent sexy?

France:

Is France? Are you French? What are you doing in this dump?

It is difficult to bond with a family again when he returns.

You do not dare to talk about what happens, even among you.

Then you start to imagine things. The worst.

And little by little, you get scared.

Then you hate yourself for it. Ashamed.

Nicholas Are you scared?

A little.

Y. .. "Before you scared too?

Nicky has never been easier to treat.

Before I was young, he was a boy.

It was still difficult, but ...

You know, Kathy, Nicholas might help to see a psychologist.

"He's not sick, OK?

"No, of course not, but ...

has gone through a traumatic experience

need to talk to someone, someone who is not part of the family ...

someone who will listen without judging.

- Out!

- Are you crazy?

He's afraid too, you know? He is ashamed.

- What bug has bitten you?

"I needed a change.

What is that? What?

What is she doing here? Did you know that?

Nicholas, okay. I am convinced that your sister.

Need to see a doctor. He specializes in post traumatic disorder.

Do not worry. Is here to help.

Is to get you better. I just want to help you get better.

Yeah, right. Just want to get rid of me ... Like everyone else!

Do not say that, Nicky! Not true!

Could you put the radio, please?

Is not gonna ask why I did the guys who kidnapped me?

So here I am, right?

Turn your hands, please.

Would you tell me?

Answers a question with another ... is a real doctor, huh?

Do not move, stay still.

Well, you can relax.

You can take off the vest.

- Have you seen many doctors?

"When you see one, you've seen them all.

Do not trust them.

Nobody trusts me. Why should I trust others?

"You did a lot of sports as a kid?

I do not know ... maybe. Like most people.

You know what I mean, right?

My brother and I used to fight.

Do not you mean it used to hit you? Does or someone else?

We used to fight, right?

He was bigger than me, but I'm not scared.

Once he smashed. Really.

When I finished with him, not moving. I thought he was dead.

Well, it was very interesting, is not it, doctor?

"I can see it? Alone.

Kathy? Jennifer Johnson speaks. Listen ...

I know this is hard to hear, but ...

the doctor does not believe that this boy is your brother.

Sorry. Can you hear me?

Kathy ... Kathy, calm down.

From now on, the case is in the hands of the FBI, right?

I need your signature to file charges.

"So what the doctor told you?

- What do you think?

What I am Nicholas Marc Randall? Not otherwise you'd be so happy.

I'm not happy.

"It's what you wanted to hear, right?

"No, I wanted to hear the truth.

The truth ...

Kathy, I have documents to sign.

"Hey, you okay?

"It's better if he stays in the car.

"Open the door, please.

-Leave the car.

"Hey, come on.

"I have it.

He is my brother, okay? I identified, my mother.

Nicky is a minor and can not do anything without my consent

not a single thing.

"Open the door. Now.

"Let him out of the car, okay?

Out of the car. Out of the car!

Do not turn around here anymore.

Did they say why I left the department of missing children in New York?

No, they did not.

Alec, a boy of ten years, disappeared.
