S1 E3: Psychic Driving

that time. This is the control group. Yes, Dr Hayes, I have caring for you showing police. Hello, Okay, have a seat please. I was wondering if I could ask your assistance for a little project of mine. Sure, good, that'll be all ergery. I'll call you if I need you. Very good doctor. Through a generous donation from a private research group, We've got a new audio tape recording system

to help with our therapi is well. We want to record certain positive reinforcements for the residents to listen to, and I thought who better to offer these encouragements than one of the patients. I've prepared a little script, so with your cooperation, no, no, no, no need to They're they're just words. Okay, yeah, okay, wonderful on the microphones right there on the desk. If you'll just lean lean down a little closer, Yeah, a little closer. Yes, put

your script down so you won't shuffle the paper. Yeah. That that's it, that's it. Uh. We'll begin when you're ready. Ready. This is Karen Myers, Wednesday, October four, Take one and mm hmm. If I am ever to get better, I must cooperate with Dr Hayes. God, I can trust Dr Hayes only when I am healthy again? Well I be released? And only by fully cooperating with Dr Hayes can I ever hope to become well again? I have no secrets. There is nothing I cannot tell Dr Hayes. How's that? Yeah? Yeah,

let's go again. Let's have a little more feeling. Can we do that? Sure? Mm hmm. If I am ever to get better, I must cooperate with Dr Hayes. I can trust Dr Hayes. Only when I'm fully healthy again will I be released, and only by fully cooperating with Dr Hayes. What's wrong? Why did you stop? Sorry? I just um. It took me a moment to really hear the words and understand. Can I try it one more time? Sure? Um, If I am ever to get better again, I must

cooperate with Dr Hayes. I can trust Dr Hayes. Only when I'm absolutely healthy again will I be released. And only by fully cooperating with Dr Hayes can I ever hope to become well again. I have no secrets. There is nothing I cannot tell Dr Hayes. Yes, that was that was You make it sound as though you really mean it, Karen. Yeah, it just occurred to me as

I as I was saying it. What alternative do I have but to try to cooperate exactly, But just try to understand that for reasons that I can't explain, there are certain boundaries that I cannot cross. Yes, well, let's say about that. I witnessed news at News six and

eleven weekdays on w e A L t V Channel twelve. Now, when I was a single girl, there was nothing I wanted more than to get married, settled down on a little nest and and decorate it with all the wonderful colors and little flourishes that make a home warm and bright.

Now, I know you'll be just as excited as I am to meet today's guest. Not for Amanda Saint Claire. Creating a home that is comfortable and inviting is not just a dream, it's also a full time job. She's an interior decorator for Shell these home furnishings right here in

New Canaan, and she's my very special guest today. She has so much to show us about the latest trends in the color coordination and decorative fabrics. I just can't wait now. Before that, though, we kind of open the sail day here from some of our viewers out there, open it off. Today is charity day, so blinding very special den from a rightful young man from MS. Oh. Don't let the wheel catch on the threshold, Bay, Okay, I'll set the door. Thank you, Karen. Try not to

jos it's a it's a delicate piece of it. I got it. See, let's roll it into the sleep room. Yes, ma'am, that would be great. You want to go back to whatever it was you were doing. Thank you, Gras. I'll put it in the sleep room. I appreciate its morning. Girls. What have we got going around here? Puzzle? What's that? Irene? It's a Jagsaw puzzle. Jesus Christ, I can see it's at Jakesaw puzzles. It's Versil. That's a big one. Must be a thousand pieces there. What's gonna be Versailles? I think, well,

sure it will be a pretty one. Good luck with that. You can help if you want. Do you want to sit down? Graph? Put it back? What I saw? What you did? Put it back? Mind your own. You took one of the puzzle pieces and put it in your pocket. That's not funny. Put it back. It's not funny. Now the look on their faces when they see their puzzle, all nine hundred and nine nine pieces of it, that'll be funny. I'm telling Ms. Gerdrey, just hold your horses for a minute. Charlotte, of what are hurting me? I

didn't mean no harm. It was just a joke. Here take the puzzle piece. Okay, it's not easy t day today. You're not even supposed to be here. Graph Well, I wouldn't Virgery asked me to come down and help you look nice today. Charlotte, all rosie, I'm telling this Virgery all right. Come on, Charlotte, you got me all wrong. If you just take the time to get to know me, you'd see you've got a lot of comments. You and me, you and I. We just got to get to know

each other like Chinese. Really well, unless i'm miss sweeding a little handsome, then dropping looks you can do your friends at home. No, you couldn't be more wrong. Give me a chance. I'm a married woman. Grad is that effect? Yes? It is? And where's your wedding ring? I'm not saying that. Maybe there's a you know, we're not supposed to wear jewelry or articles of value without that ring on. Technically you're single? Would like that? Leave me alone? Okay? Please,

I'm serious. Would you please not talk to me like that? It makes me It just is not right. I wasn't trying. Oh yes you were. You know you were. Friends are going to be I don't need to be rude. I'm sorry, but really you should be talking to someone like Karen marm She knows how to She's more of the kind of girl you'd be interested in anyway, Karen, she was right here. I just saw no. I held the gate open when I brought her. Karen, Miss Vergery, what is it?

Graph Wait? Why are you still on the ward? I think we got a rabbit on our hands? What? Who isn't see anyone? Karen, Karen, Charlotte, will you check the washroom for me? Graphra, Please please look and see that the dormitory is locked and empty. Yes, ma'am. Karen Myers, come to the nurses station. Please, Karen to the nurses station. She's not in the labatory, Miss Bersery, Yeah, Barbe call security and keep your eyes peeled. One of our patients has slipped out. We think we're not sure Karen may

have gotten out. Karen Myers. She's small, thin, dark hair, pale complexion. Yes, just now, maybe three minutes ago. I know, I know, but she's clever and eager to leave. Sure, sure, thanks, Barbara's locked tight, Thank you, grant. She can't be far no way. She made it to the entrance gate all right, So if they lock it down like they should, she'll be tramping. All right, all right, everyone, we'll see what security says, and then we'll make a clean sweep of

the ward. I can get it for you. You know, I think it's best if we let security. It's all the same. I'll go out living for grab. Don't you want my helper? Don't you nothing at all? And they come through the operations building garage. I know, I know. I'm just throwing out ideas, hoping this someplace we've overlooked. Who's that? Is that her? No? Or it helps us? Yeah? Yeah yeah, call me when you have her. I'll be here. Yes, I know she's a forensic guy. Yeah, I also know

she shouldn't be here. It was a state's brite idea to put a possible murderer in our award. It wasn't mine. Yeah yeah, yeah, goodbye, Graph anything Graph, Please put the plunger back into the washroom and go back upstairs to seaward. Call you if there are any new developments. Nobody has any idea where she might be. No, we've tried everything. The greenhouse. What's that well that I told care about? The green house? It would be a great place to

hide greenhouse, Dr Hayes. I think I don't bother him with your silly hunches. I'm sure she'd never go up there. Just to make sure, I think I'll run up there and have a look around. Just keep quiet about all this. She could be dangerous. I think I can handle it ending up m car. You can trust the I don't call it different kilt anymore. The part people gonna go.

Girl can't bring you a blanket, cock up a coffee and after that, hey, I'll give you a lift end of town and a bus ticket to wherever it is you're from, or wherever the hell is you born to go? Fat fool did in. So unless you can sprout wings and fly through the open roof, I suggest you come quietly, let me take your back. Okay, what do you say? Go on now? Okay, look I'll go, I'll go. What m you submit? You shut your mouth and submit, Aura. So it's just do me right now and the moonlight,

of course, all alone. So I'm gonna give you two options, and I think you know what those are. Do you want Option number or option number two? H M? What's it gonna be for trying to say? What I'm bleeding you a little. Now you have two choices. Come after me again without puncher, and I'll cut you again, only this time it'll be your throat. You can run home to daddy, go whimpering dog. Go ahead and try it. I'll got you wide open. He sit came from a greehouse.

Next time, save the speech. So we're gonna get down to it whenever you're ready to watch up. She's dangerous. Remember this. The next time Hayes puts you under, I'll be there and here I see if she got the hell out of my face? You better dry your weapons. Grath is that her? I'm coming out. I'm coming out. Don't hurt me. Don't hurt me. Okay, go down seeing your dreams. Tough girl. Dr Hayes. I have Mr summer Hill on one. Thanks bart Hey, he's here. Heard you

have a little trouble down there last night. Hey? Everything okay? You did? How? Oh? You know? We like to keep an eye on our different projects to protect our investment. You might say, everything's fine. We had a patient try to escape but you didn't get far. Was it our Was there a criminal case? That's right? Should we be concerned? But really this ward was not intended to house forensic cases or a hospital, not a prison. And we're as shorthanded as it is. What be helpful to you if

you could hire some more additional staff. Definitely, Since you're now juggling projects on our behalf, it only makes sense that we should contribute. Would that be possible, Anything is possible. Drays look into it. Let us know the cost. Okay, I'll get right on it. Oh, I'm sorry, that's all right, VERGERI come in happy to help talk to you soon. By now you look happy. Good news. May have gotten funding approval to hire additional staff. That is good news

as it is. So, how's Karen badly bruised? But nothing broken? Sudden cuts from the glass at the greenhouse? She must have resisted Grass well, she may have. We'll just have to watch both of them more carefully. Actually, I have a solution for the time being, since we've recorded her psychic driving tape. I want to put her under put her in the sleep room right after to day z C t Okay, very well. And on that note, Charlotte, yes, sir, well,

apparently she's the one who told Grath where to find Karen. Really, yes, she's very perceptive. I mean, she's very aware of her changing status within the ward. Healthy amount of jealousy and rivalry towards Karen. Not sure how healthy, but I agree I would call her behavior stable and consistent. Would you agree I would? Pretty soon, we'll have an extra nurse on the ward and won't have to rely on Charlotte

as our trustee. I'm thinking we should excuse Charlotte from e C T to day and start prepper rations to reintroduce her to the world. Oh, she'll be very excited to hear that. Thanks, she will. I don't say anything to her, of course. Includes its broadcast day serving New Canaan, Eden County and surrounding communities.
