The Visitor Page #3

I'm a pretty bird.

Inspector one...

Help us get him out of here!

Somebody must be hurt!

We can't reach him!

The tank's gonna blow!

We gotta get outta here!

Get the hell outta here!

- Come on, let's go!

- Let's go!

Oh, put on the skillet,

put on the lid

Mama's gonna make

a little short'nin' bread

That ain't all she's gonna do

Mammy's goin' to make

a little coffee too

Mammy's little baby likes

short'nin', short'nin'

Oh, Mrs Collins, I gotta warn you.

I don't do windows.

Oh. Jane, what do you

think of my daughter?

- Katie?

- Yes.

- You want the truth?

- Mm-hm.

She's bad.

What are you talking about?

Bad? She's just a little girl.

Mammy's little baby loves

short'nin', short'nin'

Mammy's little baby loves

short'nin' bread

Mrs Collins...

Wh... Maybe this just

isn't the right time

to bring children into

this bad, mixed-up world.

Some of them... are confused.

They think that the forces of evil are

stronger than the forces of good.

Is that another one of your

astrological theories?

Mrs Collins, a great philosopher said

that our characters are our fate.

And some scientists now believe that

planets somehow understand this.

You be careful. You ward off

the influences of Saturn.

You have suffered enough.

You understand?

- Yes.

- Good evening.

- Can I help you?

- Uh, I'm the baby-sitter.

Baby-sitter?

- The baby-sitter.

- People are often surprised.

- From the agency?

- The home service.

- What happened to Nancy?

- I've no idea.

They... telephoned me and sent me.

Come in.

Excuse my surprise.

We usually get teenage girls.

Well, I'm definitely not that.

This is Katie.

Katie, stop playing with

the elevator. It's not a toy.

Mrs Collins is confined

to a wheelchair.

Barbara, this, believe it or not,

is the baby-sitter.

I'm sorry, I didn't catch your name.

Jerzy Colsowicz.

- Please call me Jerzy.

- I'm Mrs Collins. Nice to meet you.

- Well, I'm ready.

- You look beautiful tonight, Barbara.

Thank you.

And you, young lady,

be in bed by 9:
30.

Hm? Good night.

A strange guy.

He's got to be the oldest

baby-sitter I've ever seen.

I forgot to tell you,

James said he was coming.

You don't think he's

a child molester?

Oh! Of course not.

The agency screens out

their sitters very well.

What about you?

Aren't you a cripple molester?

Well, I would be if

you gave me a chance.

You know, Barbara,

tonight is a very special night.

- I've got a wonderful surprise for you.

- You have? What is it?

Close your eyes.

Now, try to remember...

a very deep part of you.

Another world, another time,

another existence.

Other beings.

Yes.

Yes.

Why did you come here?

Before we get on with the dancing, there's

one final announcement I'd like to make

of a more personal nature.

I feel that we're all one big family.

And I want you to be the first to know that

as soon as we can make the arrangements,

I intend to marry the lovely

Miss Barbara Collins.

- You wanna kill me?

- I don't want to kill you, Katie.

I want to take you away with

me when the time comes.

Only, if you refuse to go...

Why don't you just see if

you can do that? Right now?

When the time comes.

When my friends arrive.

- Your friends?

- Oh, very special friends.

You'll come with me.

I'm beginning to get

the hang of this.

I won, I won!

- See?

- You used your powers to make it go faster.

No. No, I didn't. I used the switch.

You want my advice, old man?

- Yes.

- Go back to wherever you came from.

This world is not for you.

It's not for you either, Katie.

Barbara, where the hell

do you think you're going?

Let me go! How could you

dare say a thing like that?

I want my freedom!

Freedom? You know,

you can't even walk!

I don't need anybody.

Not you or anybody.

Listen, Barbara.

It's not going to get any easier,

as the years go by, to find someone.

Then I'll grow old alone.

No. No, you won't.

I'm going to be right there with you.

Come here.

How did everything go?

Quite all right.

Katie went to bed right on time.

Good. How much do I owe you?

Uh... $15.

$5 an hour, agency charges.

She's a remarkable little girl.

You must be, uh, very proud of her.

Yes, I certainly am.

Here you are.

Good night.

"Mommy, you have to marry Raymond.

"You have to marry him.

"I don't want you to be all

alone in this house any more.

"You're selfish, Mommy.

I love you very much.

"Katie."

My God! What are you doing here?

Call for you, Mommy.

Aren't you gonna answer it?

Come on.

- Hello?

- Barbara?

Oh, it's you, Raymond.

- Are you alone?

- No. Katie's here with me.

Oh, Momma, let me say hi to Raymond.

- Hello, Raymond.

- Hi, Katie.

Yeah. Wouldn't it be great if

we were all here together?

You and Momma could make love

and I would have a baby brother.

Oh! Katie! It's getting

so out of hand.

That's not true, Mother.

Raymond, you can talk

her into it, can't you?

You know I love the both of you, Katie.

But let me talk to your mother now.

Barbara, I have some very important

business in San Francisco

and I have to leave first thing.

Please. Please.

Come and say goodbye

to me at the airport.

Oh, Raymond.

I feel so confused right now.

I'll think about it.

Good night.

Bye.

- Mommy?

- Hm?

- Did you read my note?

- Yes.

And I tore it up.

Oh, Momma. You're so beautiful.

Thomas.

Give me one more chance.

No.

It will be useless, Raymond.

We were wrong to leave

Barbara in your hands.

She's too strong for you.

She's refused intervention.

Now...

a more efficient method

has been chosen.

If you came to see Raymond

off, you're too late.

Why, Dr Walker!

What are you doing here?

I came to see my daughter off.

She left on the same flight.

Where did Katie disappear to?

Here. Let me help

you try and find her.

I'm pleased that we met here

by chance today, Mrs Collins.

You haven't been to see me

these past few weeks.

Well, uh...

It hasn't been easy, Dr Walker,

adjusting to this whole

new way of life.

That's exactly why I

wanted to see you.

- May I call you Barbara?

- Yes, of course.

Katie! Why do you

do things like that?

Sometimes I think it gives you some sort

of strange pleasure to see me suffer.

Mommy, I'm sorry. I just got lost.

- Katie.

- Hi.

Why don't you try and convince your

mother to come over to my house?

Let's go, Mommy!

We're always stuck at home alone.

Dr Walker, I promise that

we'll come another time.

But I'm exhausted right now,

and I think it would be better

if Katie and I would go home.

All right.

We'll let you off this time.

But we'll take a rain check, agreed?

Oh, sh*t.

What the hell is wrong with this?

Mommy? Are you scared?

No! Why should I be?

They'll probably help us.

Idiot!

- Hello, can I help you?

- Yes.

My number is 7514197020.

Can you give me your name

and location, please?

I'm Mrs Barbara Collins. And, uh...

We're stalled on Interstate...

I mean, we're stalled on Route 28,

about 15 miles from Interstate 85.

I'll need a description
