"Bobby?" "Bobby, where are you?" "Answer me." "I know you can hear me." "Mr. Kane?" "Mr. Kane, do you know where you are?" "Do you remember what happened?" "Try and follow the light with your eyes." "You've had an accident." "You were flying an airplane, and the plane went down." "You've been unconscious for quite a long time." "My name is Dr. Fellows and I'm here to help you get your life back." "What happened to my family?" "I'm sorry, Mr. Kane." "Kristina!" "Kristina!" "Paul Kane?" "Lawrence Augenblick, personal injury solicitor." "l wonder if you could spare me a few--?" "Do you mind?" "Here's my card. I know this is no time to be using the "S" word but you should know the plane you were flying..." "...had parts and maintenance issues." "How did you get in?" "Give us a minute." "This is important." "l have to ask you to leave." "Don't be a victim, Mr. Kane." "Make the buggers pay." "I think we did a very nice job, even though I do say so myself." "The door wouldn't open." "No one's blaming you." "I don't remember anything else." "You will." "It will all come back." "They have a haunting fragrance, don't they?" "I heard about your family. I thought you might appreciate an American voice." "I just can't tell you how sorry I am." "Thank you." "But, Paul, you know, this Dr. Fellows is not...." "She's a private contractor, hired from the outside for your rehab and that means that your discretion is required." "God, it's good to see you again, Paul." "When was the last time?" "I can't quite remember." "I remember." "It was Paris." "Yes, of course, Paris." "Be careful what you say to Dr. Fellows, Paul." "Very good." "Your hand-eye coordination is improving." "Keep this up and you'll be back in the office in no time." "What office?" "lt's a figure of speech." "Your file says you work from home, been in the country nearly two years." "Some sort of consulting business, I think." "Luckily, you don't need good hand-eye coordination for that." "You speak French very well." "Well, I studied in Switzerland for a year." "Yours isn't bad either." "My mother was French." "That's all she spoke around the house when I was growing up as a kid." "What else does it say in my file?" "You're 44 years old, 6 feet tall, 200 pounds, and you have exceptional reflexes." "What does it say in your file?" "That I'm a psychiatrist specializing in trauma." "How did you know I speak French?" "Wild guess." "You ready?" "Look familiar?" "Not really." "Don't worry." "Visual memory is only fragments of images at best." "Your recovery means stitching them together into something that makes sense." "Where are they buried?" "When was the funeral?" "March." "My dad was a flyer, made a career out of the military." "I guess you could say I was an Air Force brat." "Grew up on bases all over the world." "Italy, Germany, lots of different places." "He was shot down over North Vietnam." "His body was never recovered." "Which one is it?" "It's that one." "The sign was Kristina's idea." "She wanted it to be just like home." "I'd like to go in alone, if you don't mind." "This is not going to be easy." "You sure you're ready?" "Thanks for the ride, doctor." "Hello, Paul." "Oh, hello, Frank." "I've been picking up your mail." "It's on the table inside." "Look, Janet and I wanted you to know well, if there's anything we can do, please just let us know." "Thank you, Frank. I appreciate that." "Yes." "Who is this?" "Kelton Reed." "I just wanted to call, see if everything was okay." "Everything's fine." "Did you get the personal effects I sent over?" "Yes, I did." "I'm sorry, but we didn't know for sure if you were going to make it." "If there's anything missing...." "No." "It looks like it's all here." "We'll talk soon, then." "Good morning, Mr. Kane." "Good morning." "I expect when you got home, a lot of things you'd forgotten came rushing back." "One or two." "It's not uncommon." "Familiar surroundings." "Sometime even the most mundane objects can trigger incredibly powerful memories." "Memories can be vivid." "A smell, a sound." "Paul?" "What were you thinking about?" "Oh, nothing." "It was nothing." "I didn't tell Dr. Fellows about the gun, of course." "I didn't tell her about any of it." "My recruitment, my training." "What do you tell her?" "Oh, I tell her about bee stings and tree houses, about my first bicycle about catching frogs in the ditch behind the house I grew up in." "That's what she wants to hear about most of the time." "What kind of childhood I had, what I remember of it." "Does she ask about your work?" "Sometimes. it's a consulting business." "What's to know?" "The reason you're here in London?" "Emerging markets." "That's good." "Safe is good." "You are the best, Paul, the best we have." "Dr. Fellows." "Mr. Kane. I didn't hear from you today." "I was concerned." "Oh, I apologize. I meant to call." "l'm not interrupting anything, I hope." "No, no, I was just in the kitchen." "l'm sorry, were you eating?" "l was gonna cook some pasta." "I eat out." "Every night, in fact." "All by yourself?" "Mostly, yes." "You don't like company?" "Not particularly." "Not unless it has to do with work." "It's the family house." "It's not surprising." "When I do think about them during holiday times, for example, I...." "Must be very painful." "Well, the strange thing is that I don't think about them that often." "People cope in different ways." "I know I'm supposed to feel guilty about that, but for some reason I don't." "And the things I do remember, some details are missing." "For example, I know that I should stop at a red light but I don't remember having ever stopped at one before." "It's the inability to access associative memory." "It's common with injuries like yours." "Thank you." "l hope you like French." "Yes, I do." "My mother was French." "Yes, I know." "That's right, you know everything about me, and I know absolutely nothing about you." "What would you like to know?" "What is your first name?" "Except that." "That's the thing I hate most." "Why?" "Harriet." "That's bad?" "Harriet got five A-Levels and a Double First from Cambridge." "It was an anti-boy signal, forced me to hit the books." "That's some name." "Ever think of changing it?" "Oh, I did." "Oh, I gave myself any number of names that I begged them to call me growing up." "Lulu, Cindy, Anastasia." "Didn't matter, the reality of Harriet prevailed." "Something to drink, sir?" "And what if they had called you Lulu or Cindy or Anastasia?" "Who knows?" "You can't go back and relive your childhood under different circumstances, can you?" "I don't think I'd want to." "I had a very happy childhood but it's an interesting idea." "So after I graduated from Cambridge, I started research into" "Do you...?" "Do you know those two men?" "No, I don't think I do." "Quite a party in prospect." "Cocktails for a president-in-waiting." "Thing is, if he does form the next government we lose all privileges." "What are we gonna do about that?" "Relax, already taken care of." "Madam, monsieur, everything satisfactory?" "Wonderful, thank you." "No, I invited you, remember?" "All right." "If you'll excuse me just one second." "What's your name?" "Maynard." "Are you following me, Maynard?" "Orders." "Kelton Reed." "You tell him I'm ready." "ls everything all right?" "Everything's fine." "You mind if I drive?" "I would ask you in, but...." "No, no, no." "I have an early appointment." "Well, thanks for dinner." "Paul. lt's so good to see you." "You know, Kelton and I, when we lost Ben, I didn't want to live any more." "But you gotta go on." "You know, you're like a son to him now." "Here you go, sweetheart." "Now you be real careful." "That's hot now." "Billy, you back again?" "How many of these things you gonna eat?" "Honey, look what I've got." "Paul!" "Come on, let's get out of here." "You know, you broke Maynard's nose." "The other guy's got cracked ribs." "Who were those guys?" "Local assets." "Ex-British Special Forces." "Not so special." "So you want to go back to work?" "Yeah, I think I do." "Hello?" "Good morning, doctor." "Oh, Mr. Kane." "I'm sorry to get you so early." "is this a bad time?" "No, no, it's fine." "is there a problem?" "No. I just wanted to apologize." "I won't be able to make our next session." "I'm off on a business trip." "A business trip?" "Isn't it a bit soon?" "Well, don't worry, I'm feeling all right." "Where are you going?" "Amsterdam." "What's in Amsterdam?" "Oh, a couple of meetings." "I see." "You may find that you have difficulty getting on the plane." "I don't think it will be a problem." "I didn't want you to be concerned." "I see." "Well, have a good trip." "And if you experience any anxieties at all, don't hesitate to call me anytime." "Thank you." "I'll be in touch." "I'm David." "Joelle." "Give me your hand." "Excuse me, my wife" "That's all right." "Just go this way." "Thank you." "Oh, hello." "Hello." "Lovely meeting you." "Nice to see you." "Yes." "This is my wife, Annette." "Excuse me, sir. I'm so sorry." "Please, let me tend to that immediately." "Excuse us, please." "Here we are, sir." "Make a wish, Paul, and blow out the candles." "Shoot him." "Shoot him!" "Come on!" "Go!" "Ibrahim?" "Oh, God!" "Ibrahim?" "Oh, God!" "l'm sorry." "Money, now!" "Give me your watch." "Now, the ring." "What's the next flight to London?" "Sorry, sir, nothing now until tomorrow morning." "Shite!" "Yes?" "l missed the train." "We know." "Where are you?" "I'm at the airport." "I don't know what happened." "It's all right." "Your partner caught it in time." "l guess I wasn't as ready as I thought." "Forget about it." "There'll be other trains." "When are you flying back?" "ln the morning. I'll be at Heathrow at 6.40." "I'll be waiting." "Hello?" "Hi, it's Paul. I hope I didn't wake you." "No, no, no." "I needed to get up anyway." "Where are you?" "Sounds like you're on a plane." "Yes, I'm flying back this morning." "That was a short trip." "Yeah, let me ask you a question." "Who is Chilly Willy?" "Chilly Willy?" "It's a cartoon character, I think." "A cartoon character?" "A penguin that's always cold." "That's all, nothing else?" "Cartoons can be very meaningful." "The joy of childhood...." "Paul?" "Paul, are you still there?" "Yes, yes, I'm here." "Paul, are you all right?" "No, no." "Come straight here from the airport." "Do you still have my address?" "Yes." "l need to see you right away." "Sir, switch your phone off, please." "l have to go now." "Paul?" "Excuse me, miss." "What is this video?" "lt's a safety video." "If you'd like to take your seat please, sir." "Fasten your seat belt." "Prepare for takeoff." "I need to go aboard." "Maybe if you told me what you're looking for...." "What's happened?" "Paul Kane killed three people yesterday." "Oh, my God." "We have no motive." "Worse, we have no idea of where he is." "Do you?" "No." "Are you sure?" "He hasn't contacted you at all?" "He did call me from the plane." "He wanted to come and see me." "What about?" "Doctor?" "He wanted to know who Chilly Willy was." "He remembers." "What size car, sir?" "Full size, medium or compact?" "Why don't you just give me any car with four wheels and a full tank of gas." "Are you over 25 and with a major credit card?" "He told me he was on a business trip." "Why was I not informed of this?" "I have no idea." "I didn't know anything about it either." "But I'll tell you what we do know." "Your instincts about him are wrong." "lnstinct is not the issue. I keep telling you." "I'm sorry, doctor, but I think it is exactly the issue." "See, I believe in nature." "If nature selects you to be a cold-blooded killer, then that is what you are." "You can't change that." "That's a very bleak view of the world." "lf people can't change, what hope is there?" "lt's been your job to prove me wrong." "I'm still waiting." "Something must've gone wrong, something we didn't anticipate." "Look, I'm not blaming you." "We both knew what we were dealing with." "What do you want me to do now?" "Stay put, hope he makes contact again." "You're closer to him than anyone." "Now, don't worry." "You'll be under 24-hour surveillance, someone nearby at all times." "They made Kane renting a car at the airport." "I've gotta go." "Right, got it." "Just get him before he leaves the airport." "Hey, Paul, what's going on?" "Frank!" "You scared me." "Get down." "Someone's broken into my house." "My God, where?" "Don't let them see you." "Come on inside, we'll call the police." "No, don't do that." "Not yet." "Let's go inside." "You keep an eye on them." "I'll call the police." "Hello?" "Yes, this is Frank Butler, 93 Winfield Lane." "I'm here with my neighbor." "He says there's someone breaking into his house." "Yes, he's here with me now." "That's what I said." "I don't know." "Well, how long do you--?" "You know who I am?" "You're Mr. Kane." "How do you know that?" "Because it says so on the sign in front of your house." "So it does." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Paul, is that you?" "Paul, we want to help you." "Can you hear me, Paul?" "It's like he's circling his territory." "We're not hunting an animal." "Lawrence Augenblick Solicitors." "Hi, Sonia." "Yeah, I know." "It's really quite" "Would you mind if I put you on hold?" "Okay." "Hello, do you have an appointment?" "No." "Could you tell Mr. Augenblick that Paul Kane is here to--?" "Thank you for coming in." "We'll set something up for next week." "Thanks very much." "Bye." "Larry, this is Mr." "No, don't tell me." "Plane crash, severe head trauma." "Mr...." "Kane." "Paul Kane." "Mr." "Kane." "I'm terrible with names, but I never forget an injury." "This is what the newspaper had to say." "According to the official report, that type of plane had six similar episodes recently." "Now, I don't want to count any chickens-- -l want to show you something." "We're now going to take you through our safety procedures and equipment." "As this information is for your benefit, we ask that you watch and listen carefully." "The safety card shows details of the..." "Mr." "Kane?" "...oxygen masks and life jackets." "It also shows the bracing position...." "That's my wife." "Oh, right, I'm sorry." "She was a beautiful woman." "She was never a flight attendant." "She was a graphic designer." "Down toward the rear of the aircraft...." "Something else I wanna show you." "Can you read what it says?" "Looks like, "Chilly Willy."" "Yeah." "Chilly Willy was a cartoon character, a penguin." "Now, you tell me, what's that doing in my mouth?" "You suffered some pretty severe injuries, Mr. Kane." "I mean, head injuries." "You were unconscious for a long time." "That woman is my wife." "I'm telling you, literally, there's something wrong with this picture." "Why me?" "Why not a private detective or the police if something's not kosher?" "Because I don't know who I can trust." "I'm just walking out for some cat food." "I'll be back in a minute." "Excuse me." "What did they tell you?" "What did they tell you?" "That you murdered three people." "What else?" "They want me to help bring you in." "Who wants you to?" "Kelton Reed?" "Don't lie to me." "I took a big risk following you here." "Have you heard from him?" "No, no, I haven't." "He'll contact you." "Be careful." "Why?" "Watch him. I know it's ridiculous, asking you to trust me, but you're the only one...." "You know everything that I've been through." "Paul, what happened in Amsterdam?" "I can't tell you that." "Bloody hell!" "You scared me to death." "How did you get in here?" "You got cheap locks on your door." "I called the airline, tracked down the woman on the video." "She's not a flight attendant." "What did I tell you?" "She's an actress." "Her name's Amy O'Brien." "I spoke to her agent." "They sent me this." "I also found the airfield you flew out of on the day of your crash." "l thought I'd go and see what I can dig up." "l want to see her." "l wouldn't advise that." "She's my wife." "Mr." "Kane" "Paul." "I believe you when you say she's your wife." "I mean, I believe you believe it." "But we've got a good case developing." "Let's not blow it." "She's my wife." "You think she's your wife." "That's why I have to go and find out." "What are you doing?" "What the hell is going on here?" "Don't look so surprised, doctor." "What are you doing with my notes?" "He nearly killed one of my men last night." "You were there." "I don't need to tell you what happens if that material gets out of our hands." "Tell me, how does Paul Kane know you?" "What did he tell you?" "You don't work for the Justice Department, do you?" "No, but I work for a justice department." "You're gonna kill him, aren't you?" "What was Paul really doing in Amsterdam?" "Business." "Was it business for him to kill a Malaysian politician and two of his bodyguards?" "Look, this is over." "I've always admired you and your work." "We'll take that into consideration when we evaluate your situation later." "Blimey!" "What happened?" "Came down near some trees about three miles over there." "The investigator says it was weather." "What do you say?" "Same." "Do you always say what they say?" "We've been over her from top to bottom." "No defects, nothing." "It's all in the official report." "Weather, eh?" "That's right." "Excuse me." "Excuse me, miss." "Are you Amy?" "l'm sorry. I don't...." "You're an actress, right?" "Who are you?" "My name is Paul." "I've seen some of your work." "I haven't really done much." "What did you see?" "It was this thing where you were a wife, a mother." "You had..." "...children, two little girls" "My God!" "You saw that?" "The interactive video thing?" "That was so weird." "You saw it, really?" "Where did you see it, in the U.S.?" "Yes, that's right." "They didn't even send me a copy." "Two days in the studio and then, "Don't call us."" "Since then, it's been a little here, a little there but I'm still waiting for my big break." "Can I ask you something?" "Was I all right?" "I mean, the accent and all." "Was I, you know, believable?" "Yes." "Very." "Well, it was very nice to meet you." "They said it was weather-related." "The skies were clear that day. I checked with the forecasts, newspapers." "Nothing." "No, I remember the weather." "It was bad." "Rainy, very stormy." "That won't hold up in court." "You can't remember a thing." "You're a head case." "Sorry." "I don't know what's real." "All I've got are memories of things that never existed." "Like that plane crash." "No, the plane is real. I saw the plane." "And I saw the girl. I held her hand." "I looked into her eyes, and she wasn't real." "All we gotta do is make sense of something that doesn't make sense." "Chilly Willy." "What?" "You ever hear of somebody getting a tattoo on the inside of their lip?" "What about it?" "Do many people get them there?" "Lots of people, in jail or reform school." "It's an American thing." "Catching on over here." "Jail, you say?" "Yeah." "Tats is against the rules." "Self-mutilation, they call it." "That's why you put them there." "So nobody knows." "I've never been in prison." "That I know." "What, like you knew that actress was really your wife?" "What are you saying?" "l don't know." "Maybe the crash wiped it from your head." "Paul, you have told me everything, haven't you?" "I mean everything?" "Yes." "Yes." "Except someone is trying to kill me." "Actually, a team of men is trying to kill me." "Right, and I was gonna invite you to stay at my place." "Not exactly the Ritz." "My ex-wife cleaned me out." "Lovely woman." "Hey, that swing out there, who does that belong to?" "My son's." "Thanks. I used to have one of those as a kid." "I'd swing high and bail out like a fighter pilot." "My kid does the same thing." "ls he with his mother?" "Yeah, I see him a couple times a month." "How old is he?" "Six." "Nothing in the world gives you more perspective than having a kid." "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to" "No, it's okay." "Look, I've jabbered on long enough." "You get some sleep, okay?" "You got a lot of troubles, Paul, but I'm gonna help you." "Promise." "Thanks." "There you go." "You okay?" "You were talking in your sleep." "Yeah, I'm fine." "You know, I was thinking about what you said about the crash..." "...about me losing those memories." "Yeah?" "Well, Larry, that still doesn't explain Kristina." "I mean, I watched her die." "They took me to her grave." "Who did?" "Paper for Dr. Fellows." "Slide over." "And please, no penguins." "Paul, what happened in Amsterdam?" "You mean you really don't know?" "Where Reed's concerned, I know less than you think." "I need to tell you something." "I kill people." "I'm an assassin for the United States government." "I need to tell you something." "No, you're not." "I was a research fellow at Cambridge when they first approached me." "Who?" "They said the American Justice Department." "They wanted to see if a hardened criminal could be rehabilitated using a technique I'd been developing called clinical memory displacement." "The pilot study needed a particular kind of subject." "He was perfect, a sociopath with a high iq and multiple homicides to his credit." "His name was Robert Willard." "Chilly Willy." "Let me get this straight, you saying I ain't gonna have no memory of my life now?" "That's correct." "That's wild, man." "That's wild." "How you gonna do that?" "Through a procedure called displacement imprinting." "Displacement imprint?" "Man, that's good." "Hey." "Where was you all 1 0 years ago when I was killing all them people?" "Well, maybe it's best." "Do what you want." "Kill me." "Resurrect me." "I don't give a damn." "The first thing we did was to stage your execution." "National press coverage." "Not even the warden knew." "Then, we planted the story about the air crash in all the papers." "We'd already transported you to the lab that we'd set up here in this country." "Reed was there representing the U.S. government." "We're ready, doctor." "Let's party." "My belief was that if we could erase all of your bad memories from 0 to 6 and replace them with memories of love and support that we could eliminate Willard's homicidal tendencies." "Okay, okay." "Make a wish, Paul, and blow out your candles." "We matched your new identity with parts of Willard's an Air Force father, bases all around the world." "But this time happy, more loving." "When we'd fixed your new personality we changed your appearance beyond recognition." "How long did all of this take?" "Seven months." "We kept you in a controlled coma for seven months." "Please, excuse me, sir." "Paul?" "I need to know, those people in Amsterdam..." "...did you?" "No." "I couldn't do it." "But Amsterdam was not my first mission." "It was the first real one." "You mean that Reed--?" "Hijacked the experiment." "Yes." "And implanted another set of memories memories of being a hired assassin." "German cars." "I never saw anyone die like that, close up." "If he found us, Reed can't be far behind." "We need to tell someone." "Look, it's me he's after." "l'll get out at the next train station." "No, don't do that." "Why?" "Because I trust you more than I trust Reed." "Where are we going?" "Somewhere, anywhere they won't find us." "What is it?" "Both Kane and Willard grew up on bases here, right?" "We matched parts of their biographies, yes." "Did young Kane spend any time on an air base here?" "In the U.K.?" "No." "We didn't create anything like that." "You're absolutely sure?" "Yes." "Why?" "Because I think Bobby Willard may have." "There's more." "We played here when I was a kid." "I left my mark on a tree somewhere over here." "Look at that." "lt's impossible." "lmpossible?" "Why, because you didn't put it there?" "Because it's something of my own?" "There was a tin shack right over here somewhere." "Watch your step here." "Man...." "The old guy that lived here used to let us play out back." "I bet he's long gone now." "What are you doing?" "It's 3.30 in the morning." "Where else are we gonna stay?" "I guess I owe you an apology." "For what?" "For all of this, for them." "If I hadn't agreed to do what I did l-- l would be dead right now." "I realized that driving over here." "That, in spite of everything that you did to me if it weren't for you, I would be dead." "We're gonna have to tell people, go public." "It's the only-- lt's the only way." "What's gonna happen when people find out that Bobby Willard is still alive?" "is he?" "Really?" "Well, what if Reed is right?" "What if nature does win out every time?" "I don't believe that." "Bobby Willard cared for nothing and no one." "He was a murderer." "Then who is Paul Kane?" "He's everything I made him." "He's everything I wanted him to be." "Where was you all 1 0 years ago when I was killing all them people?" "Just like a homing pigeon." "Let's keep radio contact to clicks." "And for God's sake, don't shoot me." "Paul, you okay?" "This place is just as I remember." "Well, that must be reassuring." "I mean it's exactly the same." "Thirty-four years have gone by and nothing's changed." "That paint is the same color." "That window was cracked in the same place." "That tree, the shape of those bushes." "That doesn't seem right." "Unless...." "Reed." "All right, stay here and try to stay out of sight." "I'm going in." "Maynard, cover the front." "Ford, take the right." "Maynard, you copy that?" "Ford?" "You copy that?" "Watch yourselves." "There's nobody home." "Maynard?" "Ford, you hear me?" "Paul?" "I know she's here, Paul." "Just want you to know, when I find her, she's dead." "After what she did to me, that's okay." "So long as I get you." "You hear that, doctor?" "You must be so proud." "Paul?" "You know, Paul, your dad used to drive a car just like that." "Come on, son." "Let's see what you got." "Come on." "Don't forget, I know all your moves." "Too bad she gave you a conscience, Paul." "You're an assassin who can't kill." "Now what's the use of that?" "There." "You see how easy it is?" "Paul." "How bad is it?" "Try not to move, just lie still." "Did you empty the gun?" "I'm so sorry." "Last night I just-- l couldn't be sure." "What about now?" "Then it was worth it." "Paul?" "Paul!"
