The Silent Scream Page #3

I'm sorry.

I just really don't really like it there.

Oh, it's alright.

I really like you...

(MUSIC STARTS)

Now listen, come on now, Hey,

I don't care how many years ago it was,

Manny, Come in here please.

Now I want you to go through the files

and find everything we've got.

Everything! Court records too.

Ok, it seems there was an incident

involving Victoria Engels in the early 1960's

- Yeah?

- She was in High School,

She got dumped by some kid.

So she attacked him and the

new girlfriend at a party.

- With a Knife?

- With a Knife.

Where is she now?

We gotta find out.

It's only me.

Hiya.

- Can you believe this place?

- I know.

How you doing?

I don't know...

Ever since Peter I...

Feel sort of weird.

Your telling me...

I think I'm going to school tomorrow

and see if anything opened up.

- Yeah?

- Yeah, I gotta get out of here.

- Let me know what you find out, ok?

- Yeah...

- You think your going to be long?

- No...

-Ok.

- Call me when your done.

Can't you stay and talk for a little while...?

No...

I got two chapters to get through tonight,

I'll see you later...

Ok.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't want Mason to see me.

What do I do with the beer?

Is there someone there?

Jack are you awake?

Wake up,

because it's time for you to go.

You mean another for the night?

No.

No?

I have alot of studying to do.

Ok you go ahead, you kick me out,

I'm going to find somebody else.

Here!

Try Nigel.

Hmm.

Doris?

Doris...

What are we going to do now?!

I don't know!

Scotty!

Scotty!

Doris?

Ok you guys,

I can take a joke.

Are you down there?

I don't know why you had

to bring people into this house!

I told you it was going to be too dangerous,

and now look what she's done!

Why did you have to rent those rooms?!

- You know we needed the money!

- We could have sold the house!

-We could have started over.

- What about Victoria?

- Victoria! What about me?!

The only thing you ever thought

about is Victoria!

Can you see how you let

her ruin my life?!

You don't know what your talking about...

Your the one...

Your the one who's ruined her life!

Mother,

how can you say that to me?

Don't you understand?

Haven't you ever guessed

the truth about Victoria?

...and about yourself?

It's been 3 years and the only way

we could keep Victoria from destroying herself,

...was to treat her surgically.

I can't leave her here in this horrrible

place for the rest of her life!

Mrs. Engels you have the child...

Victoria needs me.

What happens when you're too old

to look after her?

Mason...

...will help me.

He'll help me look after his mother.

The my...my father.

My husband...

...wasn't your father.

He was your grandfather...

and he died 2 years before you were born.

You always told me...

- Told me...

- Yes...Yes...

I thought that you needed something...

someone...

Even if it was a lie!

It's not a lie!

Mason is that you?

Hello?

Hey Mason,

Have you seen Scotty?

Hey what's going on?

Wait till you hear what I got on

Victoria Engels!

Let's have it.

Ok, after she tried to kill

her boyfriend,

She tried to commit suicide,

but she blew that too,

- Court ordered her institutionalized

- Oh yeah?

That's right,

they had her locked up for 3 years!

Finally she got so violent,

they had to lobotomize her!

Wait a minute!, what do you mean

they had her locked up?

That's what I'm trying to tell you!

About 15 years ago, her mother

took her out of the place,

Took her home and as far as anybody

knows, that's where she is now!

Let's get over there.

Mason!

You shouldn't have talked to him like that.

You shouldn't have told him that I wasn't his father.

But I'm here to help now.

What would you like me to do with this one?

I could kill her couldn't I?

That's what you'd like me to do, isn't it?

Mason!

But how else could we protect

poor Victoria?

That's the important thing,

isn't it?

There must be another way...

There's only one way,

that all of us can be free...

Mason!
