THE 4400
Episode 104
"TRIAL BY FIRE"
By
Robert Hewitt Wolfe
PRESENT
DR MAYHEW
The results are inconclusive but we
must be missing something. People don't
regain consciousness after a three year
coma for no reason.
LINDA
Honestly, we don't care why this happened.
Right, Tom? We're just glad to have
Kyle back.
TOM
You've been poking and prodding him
for a week. When can we take him home?
DR MAYHEW
I don't see why you can't do it now.
LINDA
That's wonderful.
DR MAYHEW
But there is something else.Patients
like Kyle often have difficulty adjusting
to their awakenings. They do best in
environments similar to those they were
in before their comas. In every detail.
Places, the people...
Kyle arrives home. Tom helps him into the house
TOM
All right, come on.
KYLE
Why are we here?
LINDA
We thought you'd be happier at home.
KYLE
Then, why take me here?
TOM
Kyle, this is your home.
LINDA
And this is your room, Kyle. It's just
the way you left it.
KYLE
OK.
Kyle stumbles
TOM
Whoa, whoa, whoa. I got you. I got you.
He grabs some books and looks through them
KYLE
This isn't my room. And this isn't my
house.
TOM
Kyle.
LINDA
Kyle.
He's frantically searching through the bookshelves
TOM
What are looking for, buddy? What are
you looking for? We can help.
LINDA
Kyle, Kyle, talk to us. What is he doing?
TOM
Whatever it is, I say we just let him
work it out.
LINDA
But he hasn't recognised his room.
TOM
Linda, the doctor told us he'd be disoriented.
LINDA
I'm glad you're moving back in.
TOM
I'll try to stay out of your way as
much as I can.
Jordan Collier appears on the Barbara Yates show
YATES
Come on, Jordan, aren't you overreacting?
COLLIER
No, I'm not at all. Publishing the names
and addresses of the 4400 is a crime,
Barbara. It's a violation of the privacy
of over 4,000 people, and whoever did it should be prosecuted
to the full extent of the law.
YATES
So, warning people they may be living
next to a public menace is a crime...
The tv is in on Shawns house and he switches it off. The doorbell
rings
SHAWN
We don't want any!
TOM
Shawn, it's your uncle.Let me in.
He opens the door
SHAWN
Uncle Tommy.
TOM
Hey, Shawn.
SHAWN
Come to take the tour?
TOM
Quite a procession out there.
SHAWN
Yep. They started driving by the house
the day my name showed up on the Net.
They haven't stopped since. Yay for
us!
TOM
Well, I know this is hard for you, Shawn.
I just stopped by to say thank you.
We took Kyle home yesterday and...I'm
grateful.
SHAWN
He's doing good, right?
TOM
Yeah. He's got a lot of work to do but......he's
awake.
SHAWN
Aunt Linda, does she know? About what
I did, I mean?
TOM
No, I figured you wouldn't want that.
SHAWN
Truth is, Uncle Tommy... I don't know
what happened. I put my hands on him.
That's it. He woke up. He woke up and
I don't know why.
TOM
You see, Shawn. This thing that you
can do. Whatever it is, we need to learn
more.
SHAWN
Well how? How? I could go into quarantine
again. They could study me some more.
No! I'm done with all that. With the
hypnosis and the dream journals and
the counselling.
TOM
I hear you. But I can be an ally. Maybe
I can help you.
SHAWN
I don't think so, Uncle Tommy.
Richard and Lily walk back home after seeing a movie
RICHARD
That was some movie. Biggest screen
I ever saw. And the sound and all those,
er...
LILY
Special effects.
RICHARD
Yes.
LILY
So, did you like it?
RICHARD
Not really. But it sure did look good.
They get back to their apartment, and as Richard unlocks the
door, Lily's baby becomes unhappy and Lily doubles over. Richard
opens the door a tiny bit and realises that it's booby trapped
LILY
Something's wrong.
RICHARD
Down
He pushes her to the ground and a bomb explodes
Diana and Tom take a look around the apartment
DIANA
The genie is definitely out of the bottle.
TOM
Three different bombings in one day.
DIANA
Each targeting the 4400s whose addresses
were made public.
TOM
: Wait a second.
DIANA
It's a pipe bomb, tripwire trigger.
TOM
It's about as basic as you can get.
DIANA
Amateur.
TOM
Diana, I just found part of the casing.
DIANA
Mm-hm. It's beautiful.
TOM
Shawn's name is on that list. I had
my sister upgrade her security system,
but...
DIANA
Yeah, I'm worried about Maia, too.
TOM
Did you ever think about putting her
back into quarantine?
DIANA
Yeah, l've thought about it.I've even
talked it over with her. She started
crying. She wants to stay with me, Tom.
TOM
I'm glad it's working out.
DIANA
Who would have thought? How's Kyle adjusting
to being back home?
TOM
Still weak, his memory's a mess but
he's out of that damn hospital.
DIANA
What does his doctor think?
TOM
He's stunned, just like us. lt's a miracle.
I don't have any other way of putting
it.
DIANA
What about Shawn?
TOM
What about him?
DIANA
Where was he when Kyle woke up?
TOM
I have no idea.
Back at Homeland Security
TOM
All three bombs so far were identical
in design and composition. Pipe casings,
tripwire triggers.
DIANA
I did a chemical analysis of the explosive.
It's homemade plastique, basically boiled
down from bleach. You can get the recipe's
on the internet.
TOM
Just like the list of victims. I'd like
to get my hands on whoever leaked those
names.
RYLAND
Come on, Tom. Who do you think leaked
them?
TOM
Barbara Yates.
RYLAND
You're goddamn right. lt's just her
style. Cheap, inflammatory and dangerously
irresponsible. I'll handle Yates. Meanwhile
I want you two back-trace hits on every
website that published these bomb recipes.
TOM
We'll have the results soon.
RYLAND
So will I.
Collier, Lily and Richard take a walk and look at some houses
he has bought
LILY
You own this entire complex?
COLLIER
C80 homes. Once we have this place off
the ground, I'm planning developments
in Chicago and Los Angeles. I intend
to provide a safe haven for any 4400
in this country who needs one. We're
opening sooner than I planned but the
bombings make that necessary.
RICHARD
You do think big, don't you?
COLLIER
I'm a business man. I've been given
a second chance to do something with
my life, besides make money. Cos right
now, that's just not enough. Or maybe
l'm having a mid-life crisis.
They stop outside one of the houses
COLLIER
93 Tomberra Lane, what do you think?
LILY
Oh, they're beautiful. They're all beautiful.
COLLIER
Well, it's yours. You'll be our first
official residents.
RICHARD
Oh, we can't afford a house right now.
COLLIER
Consider it a gift for the two of you
and your new baby.
Shawn leaves a store and finds Nikki waiting outside
NIKKI
It's a small world. You did it, didn't
you?
SHAWN
Kyle waking up?
NIKKI
That was you. You fixed him, just like
you fixed my hand. Have you told Danny?
SHAWN
No, and I don't want you to.
NIKKI
But maybe if he knew what you did, he'd
stop thinking of you as...
SHAWN
A monster.
NIKKI
I've been doing some thinking. This
thing between Danny and me. Maybe it
was a mistake.
SHAWN
I don't want to hear this.
NIKKI
It's not your fault. I mean that. Danny's
sweet. I like him, but......that's all.
SHAWN
He more than likes you.
NIKKI
I know.
Ryland get's a visit from a Homeland Security agent based in
Washington
LYTTEL
Dennis Ryland?
RYLAND
Yeah.
LYTTEL
I'm Warren Lyttel. I believe HomeSec
in D.C. mentioned I was coming.
RYLAND
Oh yeah, they warned me.
LYTTEL
Well, they're never happy. They seem
to think you need to be more aggressive
investigating the 4400. I'm here to
nudge things along.
RYLAND
Authority to review all 4400 case files.
Access to all meetings and briefing
sessions. Permission to ride with field
agents at your discretion. That's a
pretty broad mandate.
LYTTEL
Well, they're looking at five murders.
Three unsolved bombings. Barbara Yates
bashing us all over the airwaves. Seems
to them you could use help.
RYLAND
I suppose it could look that way from
a conference room in D.C.
LYTTEL
It looks that way from everywhere except
this glass tower of yours.
RYLAND
I have 1,000 returnees within 75 miles
of Seattle. I've got two dozen agents
to ride herd on all of them.You wanna
help me? Get me some more personnel.You
wanna help me? Get D.C. off my back.
But you're not really here to help me,
are you?
LYTTEL
No. We're here to clean up your mess.
RYLAND
Where did they recruit you from? FBl?
NSA?
LYTTEL
Doesn't matter where I came from.
RYLAND
How long have you been in public service?
15, 16 years? And suddenly you got a
shot at a command of your own.Well,
you come and take it from me.If you
can.
Kyle is in his bedroom ripping up all his photographs. The bed
is strewn with them. Tom enters the room
TOM
Kyle, what's going on?
KYLE
They're lies.
TOM
What do you mean?
KYLE
These pictures, I don't belong in them.
These people, Idon't know them.
TOM
No, no, no. Of course, you do. Look.
This is you at the zoo with Grandma
Fran when you were eight. Remember?
And this is your birthday party when
you turned ten. You remember George?
KYLE
He was my friend.
TOM
That's right. That's right. And Freddy,
you have to remember Freddy. He was
over here all the time when you were
little. Remember?
KYLE
Bugs Bunny.
TOM
That's right. Exactly. He was crazy
about cartoons.
Tom touches him arm
KYLE
Don't touch me!
TOM
I'm sorry. I'm, I'm...trying to help.
KYLE
It's not my memory.You're my father.
I recognise you, but I don't know who
you are. It's like you're a stranger.
TOM
Kyle, Kyle. Kyle, just look at me. Just
look at me.
KYLE
I need help.
TOM
I want to help you.
KYLE
Why can't you help me?
TOM
I'm trying. I'm trying. I'm trying.
Homeland Security
TOM
The ripple effect. What about it? Every
time we stop by the theory room, you
and Marco always talk about how every
case we work on has a ripple effect.
DIANA
Yeah, every case but the Friday Harbor
murders.
TOM
What if these bombings are that ripple?
Knox went from killing prostitutes before
his disappearance to killing random
women once he came back. What if they
weren't random?
DIANA
That's interesting.
TOM
We should look into Knox's victims.
See if we can find a connection there.
Gail Keating's brother's (Victim that worked in the video store
and was murdered after suggestion from Knox, in Becoming) are
working in a room. Putting together something a homemade bomb.
The Barbara Yates Show is on TV in the background.
YATES
I can't condone these bombings, but
I understand the fear behind them.The
easiest way to stop the violence is
to put the 4400 out of harm's way. Someplace
safe for them and for us. Now, I know
to some of you that that may sound harsh,
heartless even. And I assure you, I
don't mean it to be. Just as I assure
you that
there are those among the 4400 who...
DEAN KEATING
Truck's ready to go. I won't be happy
till we torch them all. They can all
burn in hell.
He turns the television off
GLEN KEATING
Hey, I was listening to that.
DEAN KEATING
I'm sick of listening to it.
GLEN KEATING
She's on our side.
DEAN KEATING
That woman is a parasite. She doesn't
give a damn about us or that our sister
was murdered by one of those 4400 bastards.
OK? Why don't you unload the fertiliser,
eh? Leave the air filter on. Those damn
fumes are killing me.
Kyle is sat in the garden in the pouring rain. Shawn enters and
seems really happy to see him
SHAWN
Kyle! Kyle Hey!
Shawn grabs him and happily hugs him to his chest. Kyle just
seems bewildered
SHAWN
Hey! It's good to see you, man. What
are you doing sitting out here in the
rain? What are you staring at? Listen,
you're looking pretty good. The way
your folks were talking I thought you'd
be some kind of zombie.
KYLE
They won't leave me alone.Asking me
questions, staring at me all the time.
SHAWN
They're just glad to have you back.
My mom did the same thing to me.
KYLE
My parents had you come here, didn't
they? To try to make me remember.
SHAWN
No, Kyle. Hey!
KYLE
I'm going inside. I've got reading to
do.
Kyle stands up
SHAWN
You've got reading to do! Kyle! Come
on! I just got here.
Richard and Lily have moved into their new house. Richard has
on a suit
LILY
Look at you!
RICHARD
I could have bought a car in my day
for the price of this suit.
LILY
How's it going?
RICHARD
We've got a lot of work to do. Five
families moved in today. Seven more
by the end of the week. Got half a mile
of property line to shore up. The fences
are too short. Overhanging trees along
the perimeter.
LILY
Along the perimeter? Well, as long as
you're on the job, I feel safe and so
does the baby. Two happy residents.
That's a start.
Barbara Yates leaves the TV Building and is speaking on her mobile
phone
YATES
It has been a crazy day. No, my assistant's
out. My phone sheet is a mile long.
I never got to the end of it. Anyway...
A man grabs her arm and points to a limousine across the street
MAN
Miss Yates, Dennis Ryland would like
to speak with you.
She get's into the car
YATES
Dennis. What a pleasant surprise! Well,
this is a bit theatrical, don't you
think?
RYLAND
Read this.
YATES
What is it?
RYLAND
It's a story. A good one.
YATES
About the 4400?
He hands her some paperwork
RYLAND
No, about a TV talking head that was
involved in a car accident last year.
A hit and run, actually. It was really
ugly. The pedestrian she hit died instantly.
It was a shame. He was 40 years old,
father of three. No wonder she spent
so much money covering it up.
YATES
So... Are you blackmailing me, Dennis?
I shut up about the 4400 and this envelope
goes in a vault somewhere?
RYLAND
Not good enough, Barbara.
YATES
What do you want me to do?
RYLAND
It's too late for you to do anything.
I gave you a chance and you refused.
Steve Smizick from the D.A.'s office
wants to talk to you. He's going to
charge you with vehicular manslaughter,
among other things.
YATES
Look, face it. Shutting me up is not
going to make the 4400 disappear from
the headlines. And eventually, they
will cost you your job.
RYLAND
We'll see. Goodbye, Barbara.
Tom and Diana speak with Collier at the gates of the 4400 community
TOM
Is this wisest move under the circumstances,
Mr Collier? All these 4400s in the same
place is a target.
COLLIER
There are always dangers. That's why
I hired the security team.
TOM
Mr Tyler, I know you're trying to protect
your family, but you must realise that
by staying here, you could be in serious
danger.
RICHARD
Maybe. But you know l was born in 1922,
in Missouri. And my skin was as black,
then, as it is now. So, I've had to
worry about fire bombings and beatings
my entire life. And if there's anything
I learned, it's this. Eventually a man's
got to take a stand. I'm making mine
right here.
Shawn walks out of school and watches Danny and Nikki arguing.
She seem's to be ending their relationship
Diana arrives to pick Maia up from school and finds her outside
with her teacher
TEACHER
...a sprained ankle.
MAIA
To the other side.
DIANA
Maia, how did you do today?
TEACHER
Miss Skouris, can we talk?
DIANA
Well, give us a sec. Can you? Sorry
I'm late again.
TEACHER
Please understand... I'm afraid you
can't bring Maia back to school anymore.
We have to consider the safety of the
other students.
DIANA
Has Maia been a problem?
TEACHER
Not at all. She's lovely. But it's the
bombings. With Maia's name on that list
we can't risk having her here at school.
l'm sorry.
DIANA
I understand.
The teacher leaves
DIANA
I'm sorry, Maia.We'll find someplace
else, l promise.
MAIA
It'll be OK.
DIANA
No, it's not OK. It's wrong.
MAIA
No, I mean, someone's coming who will
make everything better. We just have
to wait a little longer.
One of the 4400, Mary Deneville, carries some flowers across
the street into a waiting van. One of the flowers is wilting
MARY
Oh, you got too warm. Come on. Let's
look pretty. Don't you want to look
pretty?
She stares at it and the flower begins to regenerate
MARY
That's better.
She get's into the van and starts the engine. A bomb explodes
and the van is destroyed
Tom and Diana arrive at the scene
DIANA
Is that a blasting cap?
TOM
It's a commercial detonator. Which means
it'll be easier to trace than a bottle
of bleach.
DIANA
We'll send it to the lab. lt needs serial
numbers, lot numbers, a purchaser would
be nice.
TOM
What do you have on the victim?
DIANA
Mary Denneville. 27-years-old. The flower
shop was her father's. She disappeared
in 1999 but picked up her life right
where she left off.
TOM
Until today.
DIANA
Are the 4400 that frightening to people?
Are we too close, so we don't see it?
TOM
Something like this isn't fear. This
is hate, pure and simple.
His phone rings
TOM
Baldwin...Right now!
He put's the phone down
DIANA
What?
TOM
We have to go in.
Shawn see's Nikki at school
SHAWN
Nikki.
NIKKI
Shawn. There's something I need to tell
you.
SHAWN
I know. I saw you and Danny talking
yesterday.
NIKKI
I just...want to make one thing clear.
Me breaking up with Danny has nothing
to do with you. OK?
SHAWN
OK.
NIKKI
Do you ever feel like you just......wanted
to get away from your life for a while?
SHAWN
I did that for three years. Don't recommend
it.
NIKKI
You know what I mean.
SHAWN
Yeah.
NIKKI
Find a quiet place where you can pretend
that...things are simple. That nobody's
angry at you, or hurt or sad.
SHAWN
I know just the spot. Come on. I'll
take you.
NIKKI
Yeah?
SHAWN
Yeah.
NIKKI
OK.
Lyttel speaks with Diana and Tom
LYTTEL
I've been studying your case files.
You're the first investigative team
I've talked to, but it seems like you're
the right place to begin.
TOM
Where shall we start, Orson Bailey,
Oliver Knox?
LYTTEL
How about Maia Rutledge? Age eight.
Disappeared in '46.
DIANA
Well, what about her?
LYTTEL
It says here her foster parents returned
her to quarantine, no reason given.
Then there's all these reports of her
making predictions that come true. Next
thing, she's been removed from quarantine
by one of our field agents.
DIANA
I believe it goes on to say, ''For further
study''.
LYTTEL
But you haven't filed any other reports
though, have you?
DIANA
All of this was approved by Ryland.
I don't see what the problem is.
LYTTEL
Next case, Shawn Farrell, aged 17. Disappeared
in April of 2001 . It's a little thin.
Isn't it, Tom?
TOM
Why don't you accuse us of whatever
it is and let us get back to work.
LYTTEL
You two are good field agents. But it
was a mistake to let two people with
such obvious conflicts of interest to
remain on the 4400 investigation.
DIANA
This is not a conflict of interest,
it is a unique perspective. It is a
window into these people's lives.
TOM
You have a gang task force, you want
people on it who know gangs. Same thing
here, we know the 4400 better than any
other agents in the country, that's
why we're on these cases.
LYTTEL
Nice spin. Is this what Ryland thinks?
TOM
Is that who your after? Ryland?
LYTTEL
You know it's ironic. The North-West
Division used to be a backwater. It
was given to Ryland like a pat on the
back for a career of good service. A
quiet place where he could ride out
his last years before retirement. But
his free ride ended the night the 4400
showed up by that lake. Now there's
going to be a change around here, whether
you like it or not. You can either be
part of it or you can get swept aside.
Collier is in his office. His secretary buzzes in
SECRETARY
Lily Moore to see you.
COLLIER
Uh, send her in.
Lily enters the room
COLLIER
Lily, what can l do for you?
LILY
Um... Yeah, Chilean sea bass? Tenderloin
medallions? Lobster sushi? Jordan, I
just asked if I could use the common
area for our support group, I didn't
mean for you to cater it like a black
tie dinner.
COLLIER
People want to eat whether they're wearing
tuxedos or not. It's going to be a really
emotional night. These people are like
me. Their family reunions didn't turn
out as planned. It's all paid for.
LILY
Anyone ever tell you you're a control
freak?
COLLIER
Once or twice.
LILY
Or that throwing money at people might
make them question what you want in
return?
COLLIER
That sounds awfully serious. If I've
made you uncomfortable...
LILY
It's just...you go so far out of your
way to make sure I'm taken care of.
You give me far than I've thought about,
or asked for or needed. You know I'm
in love with Richard, right?
COLLIER
Lily Moore, you are a blunt woman and
I find that attractive, which I know
was not your intent. Look, why would
I try to break up you and Richard? One,
I'm smart enough to know I'd fail. Two,
I just would never do that. Lily, thanks
for coming by and I hope your support
group enjoys the lobster.
Diana's at home, on the phone with Tom
DIANA
The William Wayne Construction Company
bought the blasting caps.
TOM
Ok, good. Check their employee list
with the names from the Knox case.
DIANA
I'm already onto it. I'll call you back
if I find your ripple. Thanks.
Tom checks in on Kyle
TOM
How is he?
LINDA
You better see for yourself.
TOM
What are you doing, buddy?
Kyle is drawing dots on a map
KYLE
I'm looking.
TOM
For what?
KYLE
For me.
Shawn takes Nikki to Mount Rainier
NIKKI
This is the spot?
SHAWN
Yep. Me and 4,399 of my closest friends
popped out of a ball of light right
here.
NIKKI
It's so pretty. I wonder why they sent
you back here? Why not on the White
House lawn? Or in the middle of Times
Square?
SHAWN
I dunno, maybe they just appreciate
a good view.
NIKKI
You think?
SHAWN
I have no idea.
NIKKI
You're such a jerk.
SHAWN
You're just figuring that out now? Hey,
let me see this.
He takes her hand
NIKKI
What are you doing?
SHAWN
Doctor's follow-up. Just... It looks
good. I keep thinking you're still fourteen.
NIKKI
I'm not.
SHAWN
I know.
They kiss, which leads to them having sex on top of the mountain
Diana is at home working on her laptop. She's going through a
list of names
DIANA
Tom? I've found something.
The Keatings base is found
OFFICER
What do you got?
TOM
Gone.
DIANA
We've got fertiliser.
TOM
And tyre tracks.
DIANA
They've got a truck bomb.
They brief Ryland at Homeland Security
TOM
The tyre prints matched the phone company's
service trucks. So, we pulled their
personnel records and found one Dean
Keating.
RYLAND
As in Gail Keating - Friday Harbor murder
victim?
TOM
Dean's her older brother.
DIANA
Not only that. Gail's younger brother,
Glenn works construction and on his
last job the company was short two dozen
blasting caps.
RYLAND
So, one of the returnee's kills their
sister and these guys get their revenge.
TOM
And the 4400 go from being a threat
to being sympathetic victims.
RYLAND
: Your ripple effect. All right, put
out an APB on Keating's truck, and you'd
better not let that truck get to where
it's going.
Diana and Tom are looking at CCTV camera's, watching various
roads, looking for the truck
DIANA
Come on. Where are you?
Tom phones Richard
TOM
Mr Tyler, we're looking for a truck
bomb. Be on high alert.
RICHARD
Understood. Thanks.
DIANA
We're running out of time. There! Truck
number 85. That vehicle's assigned to
Dean Keating. And it's heading north
on...
TOM
Aurora. Heading into Richmond Highlands.
Tom run's out
SID
We need a list of all the 4400s in Richmond
Highlands.
DIANA
There's only one 4400 in that area.
It's Tom's nephew. Tom, hold up!
They run to the roof of the building and get into a helicopter.
Tom put's on a headset
TOM
Operations. Patch me through to that
phone number again.
ANSWERPHONE
Farrell residence.We're not in. You
know the drill.
TOM
Susan, Shawn, Danny. If you can here
this, get out of the house! Is anyone
there?
Danny's there, but he has on headphones and can't hear
TOM
There it is. Number 85. Get us down.
Now!
The helicopter lands on the road in front of the lorry
TOM
Put your hands where I can see them!
DIANA
Out of the truck. Keep your hands where
we can see them.
DRIVER
What the hell...
TOM
Shut up! Stay down.
TOM
You're not Keating. Where's Dean Keating?
DRIVER
He didn't come in.
DIANA
No explosives. The truck's clean, Tom.
They switched vans.
TOM
It's not Keating. Come on! Let's go.
They get back in the helicopter
TOM
We got the wrong van. Re-check all principle
targets. Report anything suspicious.
The Keatings are outside Collier's housing development
SID
We've got a 12ft step van parked near
Collier's housing complex. No plates,
new paint job.
TOM
That's what the phone company uses.
Patch us through to Collier's. Use any
line you can find.
SID
The phones are dead.
Richard see's the truck pull up
RICHARD
Code Red. Main gate.
Lily's baby senses the danger
Back in the helicopter, which is hovering over the house
TOM
There they are. Get me over there.
Richard and other armed security guards point rifles at the brothers.
Meanwhile, the Keatings are preparing the bomb
Tom shoot's one of them, as he hovers overhead. They still manage
to set the bomb.
GLEN
Go!
DEAN
I've set it. Go!
Both brothers are hit and fall from the van, but the code has
been set and the van heads for the gate's. Richard and the guards
continue to fire and at the last minute, Richard shoot's out
one of the tyres, which set's the van into a spin. It eventually
lands on it's side, short of the gate, and explodes. No-one is
harmed.
The helicopter lands and Tom runs over to the brothers
TOM
Hands over your head! Down! Down! Down!
Down!
DIANA
On your stomach now!
TOM
You are being arrested as a terrorist.
You will be treated as an enemy combatant.
You do not have the right to remain
silent. You do not have the right to
an attorney. Whatever you say will damn
sure be used against you!
Lily runs down to the gate and hug's Richard
Lyttel goes to the hospital and finds Dr Mayhew in a cubicle
TANNOY
Doctor MacMillan to...
LYTTEL
Doctor Mayhew. I'm Warren Lyttel from
Homeland Security. I need to ask a few
questions about Kyle Baldwin.
Tom arrives home that night and Linda rushes out to meet him
LINDA
Tom, you have to come quick!
TOM
What?
LINDA
Just come on!
They rush out into the garden. Kyle is sitting naked, with the
garden sprinklers spraying him with water
TOM
Kyle! What are you doing?
KYLE
I know what's wrong with me. I finally
understand.
TOM
What is it, Kyle? Tell me!
KYLE
There's only one explanation. Why I
remember everything, but can't feel
anything. Why all the people in my life
seem like strangers. They're not strangers.
I am. I'm not Kyle Baldwin.
THE END
