"Oh shit, thanks." "I didn't see that." "Neither did I." "People say, "seeing is believing"." "But for me that's not entirely true." "I lost my sight when I was five years old." "Those memories of what I have seen have faded so much that I doubt I'd even recognise myself anymore." "Now I see using my other senses." "I can smell the rain before it drops, but I can't watch it fall." "I can feel the sun on my face, but I can't see it rise or set." "I want to see the world like everyone else, to see the sun, the rain, the music." "I bet the music looks beautiful." "Thank you, thank you." "Happy Birthday." " Good evening, Miss Wells" " Hi, Miguel." " Thank you." " You're welcome." " Lilies." " Came just this morning." "It was roses before, but uh, you're the first one that's noticed." "Nervous about tomorrow?" "No." "Actually, I have never been so scared in my entire life." "Listen, the night before my mother's surgery, she drank two glasses of sherry." " Steady as a rock the next day." " Thank you." " Good night." " Good night." "This is Dr. Haskins's office calling from County General." "Your procedure is still on schedule for tomorrow, be sure to arrive at the hospital four hours early for pre-op, thank you." "Hi sweetie, it's your sister, I finally got a flight out." "My housemate's got a lay-over, so I'll find someone to give me a ride straight to hospital." "I love you Sydney, can't wait to see you." "Bye." "Twelve-ten A-M." "Hello?" "Shhhh!" "Nurse Grouch, she's on from twelve to six and unfortunately she takes away my M  Ms if I get out of bed." "I'm Alicia, I'm holding out my hand to shake." "I'm Sydney." "I know, Sydney Wells." "I uh, kinda read your chart." "You had a cornea transfer." " How old are you?" " Nine and a half." "There's this like... well golf ball thingies on my head." "Made me so dizzy I couldn't even ride my bike, so the doctors are trying to get it out." " When will you get to see?" " Pretty soon, I think." "Good, I'll come back, and you can take a look at me." "OK." "Bye, nice to meet you." "Bye." "I'm starting to lose the feeling of my fingers." "Oh, me too." "OK" "Would you excuse me, please?" "Alright." "All right, Sydney?" "We'll take the bandages off." "OK." " Ready?" " Yeah." "That's one." "That's two." "Now, I'm gonna help you, open your eyes, very slowly." "Okay." "Slowly, slowly, slowly." "Great." "Tell me what you're seeing." "I can't..." "I'm gonna hold up my hand..." "I want you to tell me how many fingers I have up, okay?" "Those are your fingers." "Yes, they are." "Here we go." "All of them?" "Yes." "Very good." "Sydney." "Yeah." "I want you to try and reach out... grab my hand." "It's okay." "Its okay." "Not everybody can do this right away, it's okay." " It burns a little." " Is that normal?" "Yeah, it's perfectly normal." "Thank you." "Am I how you pictured?" "I don't know." "You're really blurry." "I wish Mom and Dad were here to see this." "Yeah..." "I think I wanted this more than you did." "Helen, you were twelve..." "I've waited for this for fifteen years." "And now I feel sense of..." "It's not your fault." "Hey." "It's not your fault." "I'm sorry." "I just need time." "You'll see." " Good night." " Good night." " I love you." " I love you, too." "Sydney, can you see me?" "Don't feel bad if you can't." "What's that on your head?" "A bandanna, my Gram-pa gave it to me." "Maybe tomorrow we can take a walk and I can see the park outside." " Palm trees..." " Alicia." "Oh, coming." " Nurse Grouch, I gotta go." " Bye." "Please." "I don't want to go." "Mrs. Hillman?" "Mrs. Hillman?" "Where are you taking her?" "Mrs. Hillman?" "Where are you taking her?" "Freezing." "Freezing." "Freezing." "Where's Mrs. Hillman?" "Oh, I'm sorry, she passed away last night." "Everything is just perfect." "You're recovering quite nicely." "And the tearing is stopped." " I think so, yeah." " Good." " So... so, whose eyes were they?" " Excuse me?" "My uh, donor?" "I'm afraid I can't help you with that Sydney." "These are your eyes now and they're working." "I shouldn't matter where it came from." "That hurt?" "Yeah, a little." "When will I be able to see more clearly?" "Well it varies with each patient." "A couple of days, couple of weeks." "But your vision itself, isn't the issue." "Because you were blind so long so I'm going to refer you a specialist," "Paul Faulkner, he'll help you." " You alright?" " Yeah." "Alright." " Have a nice day off tomorrow." " Thanks, Sydney." "OK." " Hi." " Hey." "Are you ready to be my tour guide?" "Are you leaving?" "Yeah, I'm afraid they've had enough of me here." "This is my sister Helen." "Helen, this is Alicia." "Hi." " Hey, can we get a picture together?" " Of course." " I'll do it." " Okay." "I know you're scared, Sydney." "Don't be." "The world is... really beautiful." "Look up... smile." "My trailer's attractive." "I just put in a couch in there." "We can do meals, we can clean, we can go to art galleries." "Do you trust me?" "I just want to see that everything's okay." "We can talk everyday, you can come over and check on me, I just..." "I really think I just need to do it my own way, okay?" "Okay, I understand." " I got some new lamps for your place." " Thanks." " Here, I'll do it." " Okay." "Surprise!" "This too soon." "I don't know what I was thinking." "It's okay." " Do I know any of you?" " Welcome home." "Oh, hi Jim." "How are you?" " Nice to see you." " Nice to see you, too." "Sydney, it's Brett." "Welcome home." "Hey, Syd." "It's me, Alex from upstairs." "Alex, wow, nice to see you." "It's your cousin, Sarah." "Sarah." " It has been so long." " I am so happy." "Recognise my voice?" "Hi, Cynthia." "How could I not, Cynthia." " Hi girls." " Richard, hi." " How are you doing?" "So, this is how bald looks like." " Hey, Sydney." "How are you?" " Miguel, how are you?" "You look good." "Hello honey." " How are you feeling?" " Take a breath." "Hi, how are you?" "Are you okay?" "Do you need some water or anything?" "Yeah, I'm gonna go get some water in the kitchen." "Why don't you stay with the guests?" "Thanks for coming." "One-O-six A-M." " Hi." " Hi." "Sorry, I'm late." "That's Henry." " I'm Paul." " Sydney." "Have a seat." "You damaged your corneas when you were five?" "Yeah, my sister and I were playing with firecrackers." "I tried a transplant when I was 12, but I rejected them." " This is part of my research, did you want to try it again?" "No, my... my sister was really the one who kept up with all that stuff." "These are Dr. Haskin's test results." "There's nothing physically wrong with you." "Operation went flawlessly, what your problem is you're in shock" " Why?" "You've already felt the information from sound, smell and touch." "But now, you're gonna be assaulted by a million things you never even knew existed." "There are whole new levels of confusion." "Do I look here, here, is that grey thing important, is this dark one moving toward me or away from me dangerous or not?" "As long as your eyes are open, there are just too many distractions, and how do you concentrate?" "I'm talking to you and... you're looking at that woman and you're thinking is she's gonna eat that?" "Those are pineapple, by the way." "You cut it open." "I like pineapple." "Sorry." "Anyway, because you can see, people are gonna expect you to deal with things that you can't do, read signs, recognise body language, people's gestures and facial expressions and just get out of their way." "Your eyes will wanna dominate how you perceive the world, but you can't fully trust them, not yet." "And the next few weeks," "I gonna help you to see the world like it really is, okay." "Some of its gonna be wonderful, a lot of is gonna be difficult, but the main thing is to be prepared." "And that's where I come in." "We're in this together." "You scared me." "Have you seen my report card?" "Your report card?" " Do you live here, sweetie?" " My father will be so mad at me." "Have you seen my report card?" "Sorry." "Let's take five." "I'm sorry..." "I don't know what's wrong with me?" "Relax." "You're pushing too hard." "You know, when I first went to London to work with the Philharmonic," "I was so nervous." "In Prague, I was a big fish, in London one of the hundreds." "But you did very well in London." "I never thought I would be ready, but when it was time to go on, everything faded away, it was just me." "Then there was nothing to worry about." "Will you be ready?" "We're all counting on you." " I'll be ready." " I'm sure you will be." " Twenty-two!" " Twenty-two?" "That's us." " You stay seated, I'll get it." " Thank you." "Did you think I'm just gonna let you go?" "You think I'm not gonna do something?" "That's it, right?" " I'm gonna do it." " I'm sorry." "I told you I was gonna do it." "I'm gonna do it." "What happened?" "There was a woman, she came at me." "What woman?" "What woman?" "Christ Sydney, you gotta get hold of yourself, please." "Sorry." "Sorry." "I apologize." "It's alright." "Well." "For the latest results..." "there's nothing wrong with your eyes." "Maybe there's something wrong with the tests." "Tests aren't made to gauge abnormal responses." "Creative ones, yeah, like with artists and musicians give, but last I checked you are a musician." "I'm sure other musicians don't see what I'm seeing." "Come with me." "I'm not an idiot." "I understand what you're telling me." "My brain's having to re-learn how to decode the world around it." "But that's very different from me seeing things that don't seem to be real." "How?" "Look... you're real." "Okay." "You're here." "My perspective and.." "and focus is off, but... you're real." "I can see you." "We see what we look at." "But the way that we see things is affected by what we know." "And there is a lot around that doesn't make sense to you." "What are you saying to me?" "You think..." "I'm making this up?" "You think I want this to be happening to me?" "You think you're not gonna be able to push through this." "You think you were better before." "More special." "Well, you just discovered that now you are like the rest of us." "You know when we've first met, I didn't think you were such an ass." "That's cause you didn't know how to spot one." "See?" "Progress." "Have a good evening Mrs. Chaline." "Ahh..." "Miss Wells, your new TV is here." "My buddy from the cable company hooked you up." " Thank you Miguel." "And welcome to the 200 channel universe." " Thanks, bye." " Good night." "Help." "This is Helen." "I'm out of town until Saturday, so if you need to contact me leave message after beep." "Hey, it's Syd." "Please call me." "What are you doing?" "Hi, you've reached the cell phone of Dr. Paul Faulkner, leave a message after the beep." "Hi Paul." "It's Sydney." "I'm at a Chinese restaurant on the corner of Fourth and Figueroa." "Something's happening to me." "I need you to come... please." "Excuse me." "Sydney, Sydney... it's me." "It's me." "This place." "I was just here..." "I was just here." "What are you talking about?" "What are you talking about?" "This place..." "There was a fire in here..." "a fire in here weeks ago, five people were killed." "It was in the newspaper, it was all over the press." "I was here." "I was just here." "Where is this place." " What's wrong?" " Everything's wrong." "Everything's wrong." "My apartment keeps changing." "It was full of smoke and I was attacked by this man." " What do you mean "attacked"?" " He was on fire and then he was gone." "Everything was gone so I had to get out there." "And I was walking down the street and this woman walks through me." "She walked right through me." "And I saw this shadow." "I saw it before at the hospital, it's some kind of escort that takes people away when they're dead." "There's something so angry about them." "They don't wanna be seen." "And then this, I see people, like nothing's wrong." "but they don't seem to see me." "Sydney, listen to me." "I'm seeing thing that aren't real." "I'm seeing things that I shouldn't see." "I'm dreaming things that I've never seen." "This surgery was supposed to make me normal." "Sydney, your eyes are not the problem." "These eyes are not my eyes." " Yes, they are." " No, they aren't." "Yes, they are." " No, they're not." " Yes, they are." "Listen to me." "You've got a disorder, alright?" "We've gotta teach your brain how to separate out these ghost images from the real thing." "You're not listening to me." "I'm not seeing ghost images." "I see..." "What?" "Dead people." "Rooms that change, phantom escorts, whatever it is that you believe you're seeing is not real!" "It's not." "It's not real." "You don't believe me." "I wanna help you." "How can you?" "How can you if you don't believe me?" "You gettin' on or what?" "It's not real." "No, no, it's not real." "It's not real." "It's not real." "It's not real." "It's not real." "Have you seen my report card?" "No." "I've already told you." "Have you seen my report card?" "Stop asking me." "No!" "Have you seen my report card?" "It's Helen." "I'm on my way to the airport." "Are you okay?" "Will you call me?" "On my cell, okay?" "Please." "You're scaring me sweetie, pick up." "OK, I'm gonna call someone..." "I'm gonna call someone unless you pick up, Sydney." "Sydney?" " Miss Wells." " Sydney." "It's Paul, are you in there?" "Miguel is going to let me in, alright." "Miss Wells." "Can you give us a minute?" "Sure." "Your sister called, she said you haven't answered the phone..." "What is this?" "You wanna be blind again?" "At least you were right when you were blind, you had a life, you were... engaged with the world, you had a job." "Now, what is this?" "You get scared, you just drop out, run back to your own special life." "So what now?" "I'm gonna take you to the hospital and get these cuts sutured." "Is that really necessary?" "Yeah." "We'll figure this out." "I think you should keep her here over night, this is my home phone number." "Sydney Wells?" "You're back." "Alicia." "What are you doing here?" "My golf ball's gone Sydney Wells." " What?" " I have to go now." "Hey, hang on..." "Alicia." "Alicia?" "I know you're scared, don't be." "Because the world really is beautiful." "No." "Alicia." "Don't go with him!" "Alicia." "Alicia." "How are you?" "Whatever is happening, there is nothing that can't be fixed." "Good Morning." "Good Morning." " How's the arm?" " It's fine." "Alicia's mother wanted you to have this." "She said she talked about you all the time, she was smiling up to the very end." "Who is she?" "That's you, Sydney." "That's not me." "Of course it is." "Who else would it be?" "What are you doing?" "Sydney." "You're scaring me." "What do you see?" "CELLULAR MEMORY: based on the theory that all living tissues have the capacity to remember, cellular memory explains how energy and information from a donor's tissue can transfer, consciously or unconsciously, to the recipient." "Recently, recipients of organ transplants have begun to report episodes of new found memories thoughts, emotions and characteristics that are often associated to the original donor." " I can't talk right know, I gotta go..." " Listen." "There is no history of schizophrenia in my family," "I have never suffered any mental condition." "No depression, no migraine, nothing." "So for argument's sake, let's just pretend I'm not crazy." "Alright, walk with me." "There have been cases of transplants who've actually shown characteristics of the donor." " That's cellular memory." " Yes." "There was liver transplantation in Kentucky last year." "She almost immediately felt the urgency to take up smoking and hadn't her entire life." "Donor was a chain smoker?" "Down to the same brand." "And a few years ago this little girl helped the police solve the murder of the person who she got a heart from." "She was having visions of the crime." "There's some kind of chemical..." "Peptides, its how the mind and body communicate." "So it's not too far off to suggest that memories can also be accessed from these organs too." "No, because corneas aren't a major organ, it's like changing a windshield in a car." "But there is still a chance, isn't there?" "I..." "I need that chance." "I need to find out who the donor was." "I see her in the mirror everyday." "I have to find out who she was." "That is confidential information." "You can't ask me to do that." "I could lose my license." "Your license?" "By all means, hold on to that license." "Sydney, come on." "Sydney, come on." "Thank you" " What floor?" " 14." "Excuse me." "Sorry." "Thank you." "He's here, isn't he?" "My Tommy." "What was that about?" "Who is Tommy?" "Her son." "Where was he?" "He's dead." "Who are you?" "What do you want?" "I wanna help you." "But how can I if you won't even tell me." "Sydney." "Are you okay?" "Sydney, open it up." "Open up." "Sydney, open up." "What the hell is going on?" " I need to find out who she is." " Who?" "My donor, her eyes are my eyes." "I'm seeing what she saw." "I'm seeing what killed her." "Sydney, please." "Helen, don't." "I love you, but there is no way you can help me." "You're not making sense." "It's all happening to me." "Everything that happened to her is happening to me." "Until I find out who she is and what she wants, it's gonna keep happening." "To the center please." "Hey." "The only cornea transplant that matches the day of your surgery came from" "Clínica De Santa Haviera Mosianos." "Your donor was from Mexico." "Do you get car sick?" "Why?" "It's a 15 hour drive." "Thank you." "File says that your donor was Ana Christina Martinez" "One living relative, mother worked in a ceramics factory." "Hopefully we can track it down." "So, what made you change your mind?" "About what?" "About coming down here with me?" "What don't you just let me sabotage my career in peace?" "I'm just wondering why you've changed your mind, that's all." "Was it because you believe me?" "Paul, stop the car." "What did you see?" "There was a fire here." "I keep seeing fire." "Maybe they know something." "He says, all the doors were locked and nobody could get out." "He lost a brother." "How did it happen?" "He says something about a witch." "You see that?" ""Bruta"" "I have seen it before." "What's it mean?" "It means witch." "I don't think anyone is here." "No, I work here." "Is someone from the Martinez family here that we can speak to?" "Señora Martinez is here but she is resting." "Oh uh, we can wait." "It's important." "Come in." "Come in." "Please don't be long." "She's not well." "Mrs. Martinez, my name is Sydney Wells and this is my friend Dr. Paul Faulkner." "What do you want?" "We would like to talk to you about your daughter." "I was wondering about..." "how she died." "What business is that of yours?" "It's hard to explain." "I have a connection... with your daughter." "You have her eyes." "I'm sorry for how I look." "There was a fire in the factory where I worked." "Did your daughter die in the fire?" "No, but many others did." "If they had listened to Ana, they would have been saved." "What do you mean by that?" "It doesn't matter now." "Did Ana ever... see things she couldn't explain?" "Do you see things?" "Things that are not real?" "Yeah." "It is that terrible thing, to see the spiritual world isn't it?" "To see souls destined to repeat their death everyday and unable to find peace?" "Yeah." "Ana was always alone." "People around here were always afraid of her." " They would blame her." " Why would they blame her?" "Sometimes, when she was a little girl, she would sit in front of a person's house and she would just cry." "And soon after somebody in that house would die." "I know that she wasn't doing these things, she wasn't bringing death to anyone, but she... she always could... see death." "This is a small town with many superstitions." "Well uh... we should be outside." "It not anything written on the doors or houses..." " Call an ambulance!" " What?" "Call an ambulance!" "Every night... she does it again and again." "Please save her." "Save her." "What happened?" "She is having an heart attack." "We gotta get her to the hospital." "Where are your keys?" "They're in the car." "Hey, open the door." "Put her head in first." "Go around your side." "Pull her in, head first." " Can you hold her legs for me?" " Got it." "Alright, close the door." "Keep the keys, you drive." "You know the way." "Hurry up." "Come on." " I need to stay here." " What?" "I'm fine." "Just go." "I'll be quick." "Don't go anywhere." "All right, Ana." "I'm here." "What do you want me to see?" "Paul?" "Paul, is that you?" "Ana?" "Ana?" "Ana, no!" "No!" "Help me?" "Stop." "Please." "God." "No, no!" "Come on, come on." "What am I supposed to do?" "Please, tell me?" "Your mother asked me to save you, but I don't know how." "What am I supposed to do?" "I don't know what to do here." "What?" "What do you want from me?" "Tell me." "Help me." "I believe you." "I see what you saw." "I know what you've been through." "I believe you." "It was never your fault." "How is Mrs. Martinez?" "She didn't make it." "Thank you." "Hey buddy, what's going on?" "Some high speed chase down the American side has all the border shut down." "Nearly an hour now." "You might as well make yourself comfortable." "Great." "Thanks." " How long was I out?" " Not very long." "It's freezing." "What's going on?" "Some kind of chase on the other side of the border and we're all held up." "Really?" "Do you wanna play a game?" "Mommy?" "Come on, get back in the car." " You're scaring little girl." "Let's go." " Wait." "Get back in the car!" "What?" "Oh, God!" "Sydney!" "Sorry about that." "You all right?" "Sorry." "I see the Shadows." "They are everywhere." "Excuse me, please." "Open up." "Listen, there's gonna be an accident." "We don't have a lot of time." "Please, just let me to talk to the driver." "Okay?" "Please!" "Miss, what are you doing?" "Oh my God." "Don't you understand?" "This is what she wanted me to see." "Everything I dreamt wasn't from Ana Christina's life." "It was from this right now." "She let me see that this was going to happen so I wouldn't end up like her." "She wants me to save these people." "That's what she wants me to do." " Sydney." " You have to believe me." "You have to believe me." "You need to get off this bus." "Everyone needs to get off this bus." "All of you..." "You can't stay here." "Everyone listen to me." "You have to get off this bus." " Is it like a terrorist thing?" " Yes." "That's exactly what it's." "There is a bomb in the bus." " There is a bomb." " Quickly." "Get out." "Come on." "Get out of the car." "Everyone." "Come on." "Go from here." "There is a bomb in the bus." "Come on." "Get out." "Go, go, go." "Come on." "Out of your car." "Wait here, sweetie." " What's going on?" " Out of your car." "Mom." "Come on." "Get those people out of here." "Get out of your car." "Mommy!" " You all right?" " My God, she is inside." " Open the door." " How?" "Please." "Please, help me..." "Help." "Stay back." "I'm gonna break the window." "Close your eyes." "Come here honey." "Paul, let's go." "Hurry up!" " Come on, come on." " Mom!" "You saved them, Sydney." "You saved them." "Some say, seeing is believing." "Now I know what they mean." "Ana Christina tried to prevent death." "But she was ultimately powerless to stop it." "Ana and I share both have a blessing and a curse." "I know, now, I don't need eyes to see what truly matters." "The gift of Ana's sight made me see what I was afraid to, to use that vision, to not only save myself and others, but to give Ana the peace she never found in life."
