But we've been so worried about you.

Why did you come back here again?

It's quiet.

I belong here.

- There's her car.

- She must be in there.

Hurry up.

Please. We're only trying to help you.

Of course, Nancy, of course.

You have helped me.

- But you can't stay here like this.

- I must. I must.

I'll call Dr. Beaumont.

Let him have it.

What's the matter with you?

Give it to me.

John.

Yes?

- Yes, Nancy.

- John has been shot. He's dying.

What?

Please hurry, doctor.

All right, Nancy.

Do what you can for him till I get there.

- I fixed a place for him.

- Thank you.

Quickly, doctor.

What is it, doctor?

One bullet struck the base of the skull

in the area of the blood clot.

If he can only hold out for a little,

Oh, can't you forget your questioning?

You're supposed to be a doctor.

Now, John.

John, look at me. Try to remember.

You must.

It's so strange remembering.

What, John?

All the things you wanted to know.

How I knew I had been framed.

But how did you find out?

You knew nothing before your execution.

How do you know now?

It's hard to explain.

Try, John, try.

That's why I brought you back

from death.

Leave the dead to their maker.

The Lord our God is a jealous god.

But, John, what is death?

Can't you put it into words?

Tell me.

Tell me. You must.

What is death?

I think I can.

- After the shock...

Yes?

...I seemed to feel...

Yes?

...peace and a...

He's happier now.

It will never be known.

The Lord our God is a jealous god.
