- He's being treated like a prince.

He is. He's royalty, unique.

The Chinese don't have one,

the Soviets don't have one.

In all the world,

there's no one quite like Robin Sandza...

unless it's this girl.

How can you hold him against his will

and get any kind of results?

Against his will?

You don't understand Robin's needs.

We do.

Are you testing the girl today?

She's failed every test.

She's a fake. I'm sending her home.

- I don't have time to waste on people...

- Don't do that to me, Doctor.

Don't ever try lying to me.

For God's sakes, she's just a child.

She doesn't know anything.

She has no control

over what she's doing.

Robin had no control

when he came here.

Just raw ability.

Doctor...

I wish you could see him now.

For God's sakes.

I want you to get yourself together,

stop fudging your responsibilities.

This girl is important to me.

I'm assigning extra security.

Why?

If I know Peter,

he penetrated your security weeks ago.

He probably knows

I have Gillian Bellaver.

I don't know who his confederate is,

but I'm looking into it.

Oh.

- She's all right.

- Try that one.

I will, I will.

'Kristen, where's Dr McKeever?'

'He's checking out

the new testing equipment.'

- 'Do you know when he'll be back?'

- 'He said not before dinner.'

- 'Where's Gillian?'

- 'Having breakfast.'

'I could use a cup of coffee myself.'

A club...

Good morning, Gillian.

You're not eating much.

I'm not very hungry.

Did you hear

what happened yesterday?

Dr McKeever's hand started bleeding.

Yes, I do know about that.

Well, what are you gonna do about it?

I mean, it's why I'm here, isn't it?

Can't anybody help me?

Gillian, we have to work together.

Gillian.

Do you remember much

of what we talked about last night?

Last night?

- Were you here last night, Dr Lindstrom?

- That's all right.

While you were with Dr McKeever,

you had a vision that upset you.

You were in a fugue state for a while.

We gave you something

to help you relax,

and I suggested that you consciously

forget whatever was troubling you.

And apparently...

it worked better than I thought!

So you don't remember

anything about Robin Sandza?

No. Who's Robin Sandza?

He's a boy your age...

with powers like yours.

Like me?

Well, where is he?

I mean, do you think I could talk to him?

Do you know him?

I feel like I do.

What can you tell me about him?

He's...

He's not very clear. He's...

He's, like, dreaming or...

...or not... not awake yet.

Drugged.

Stop!

Just relax, Robin. Relax.

It's gonna be OK.

Gillian, where are you?

Get that light off him.

Disturbance of the magnetic field

on the last PK.

Trial was stochastical,

with a parametrical resonance

on a frequency of five cycles.

We'll go for a

magnetometer check now.

The infrared scanning system

is operational.

We want a two-dimensional

view of the field potentials.

We have a mild

electrostatic field fluctuation.

We have differentiation

between the P and T waves.

Heart action slightly arrhythmic.

Let me have

that electroneurogram reading.

Pulse 66. Pressure 114/92.

Pulse steady at 67.

Pressure 115/94.

Robin, we're going

to show you a film.

Now, there's nothing in there

that can possibly harm you,

but you must keep watching, OK?

(Man) Pulse beginning to rise. 73.

Pressure 115/94.

Magnetometer holding at 640.

Pulse is 78. Pressure 129/111.

No. Keep watching.

Keep watching.

(Man) We have a mild

electrostatic field fluctuation.

- (Woman) Body temperature 89.59.

- (Man) Pulse steady at 65.

Robin, please keep watching.

No! No!

Robin, please, for God's sake,

watch the screen.

Gillian! Gillian!

Where is Robin now, Gillian?

(Screams)

(Machine gun fire)

My dad!

They're after my dad!

Dad!

No!

Oh! Oh! Oh!

(Ringing)

- Hester?

- Oh, thank God!

Oh, my God. Listen.

I need to talk to my mother.

Do you think I could call my mother?

You can talk to your mum

in a little while,

but you've had an awful shock,

and you need to rest.

- Here.

- What is that?

It's a sedative. It's like aspirin.

You take aspirin, don't you?

Here's some water.

Drink plenty of water.

Oh, that's a good girl.

I need to see Dr McKeever.

I have to know what happened to Ellen.

He'll be here in a little while.

I'll stay here with you.

Just lie down and relax.

No! No, I gotta get outta here.

I gotta go home.

It's all right, Gillian.

Everything'll be all right.

We'll take good care of you. Don't worry.

Ellen's x-rays were encouraging.

She's beginning to show

signs of consciousness.

- It had to be a cerebral haemorrhage...

- "She's a fake."

You were gonna send her home.

Is that the kind of cooperation

I can expect, Doctor?

I want Gillian Bellaver

at the PSI facility tomorrow.

Do we let her mother know?

She's wealthy, with powerful friends.

Gillian can't just dis...

Peter, it's impossible.

I'll never be able to get that girl

out of that place. I'll blow it.

Getting out of Paragon

is a hell of a lot easier than getting in.

- What do I say to Gillian?

- Tell her everything.

Tell her what they did to Robin.

They'll do the same thing to her.

- What if she won't listen?

- I don't have much time.

That girl can lead me to Robin.

- She was doped the last time I saw her.

- Everything's set for tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

I need your help. Please.

You feel all right, Robin?

You know,

that wasn't a very smart thing to do.

You could have been

very badly hurt.

Why were you running away?

You didn't have to use the window.

There is a door.

(Robin) Yeah, like they'd really

let me just walk out the door!

(Woman)

Why didn't you come to me?

Because you're one of them.

I just wanna get outta here.

I hate this place.

I hate these doctors and the tests.

They're driving me crazy.

I can't even sleep.

And you want to get away

from me, too. Is that it?

- What do you care'?

- Well, I care very much.

What's the matter, Robin?

Don't you trust me anymore?

I don't know.

But you do want to get out of here,

don't you?

Yeah.

All right.

Then we'll go together.

- Go where?

- Gillian!

(Woman) Well,

I have this place in the country,

north of Chicago, in Lakeview.

Gillian?

You can do whatever you like.

You don't have to see anybody.

You don't have talk to anybody.

Not even me.

Really?

Yes, really.

Would you like to do that?

Sure.

Gillian?

Gillian?

Hi, Hester.

I've been lookin' everywhere for you.

This was Robin's room

when he was here.

Yes, it was.

He's in terrible trouble now.

Those people,

they should be trying to help him.

What people?

Where Robin is.

They won't leave him alone.

I mean, it was like they were

deliberately trying to hurt him.

- Hester, don't!

- Please, please, it's OK.

It's OK.

I'm not bleeding.

- You know where Robin is?

- Yeah, I do.

Would you like to see him?

I need to see him.

Well, I think we can work that out.

HOW?

Dr McKeever says

I'm supposed to give these to you

to keep you happy and harmless.
