"[Cheering and applause]" "Oh, my God, I can't believe this!" "[Cheering and applause]" "This is incredible." "[Cheering and applause]" "Who we are, what we've done." "We are Scientific Re-Patterning." "[Cheering and applause]" "Ha ha ha." "Thank you." "Thank you very much." "You know, before I came out here today" "I was backstage, I was working on my speech and I noticed that there were no collisions." "Nobody was getting in anyone else's way." "Everybody had a sense of purpose..." "Of direction." "They belonged." "And I realized that I was watching this pattern where everyone knew exactly what to do and where to be but without disrupting anyone else's flow." "They were embraced by the same energy." "They were connected." "Connected by the path that the work needs in order for it to get done efficiently and comfortably." "Hey, Danny, it's mom." "Listen, honey..." "All that stuff, you know, that happened." "I never meant to hurt you." "Everything's going to be all right." "Good-bye, Danielle." "I love you..." "No matter what happens." "We re-pattern..." "Through the transitions and the precepts." "We learn to live." "We crave life." "Would you guys stand up?" "These guys have re-patterned." "[Cheering and applause]" "They've transitioned." "Thank you, guys, and welcome." "[Cheering and applause]" "And now the precepts-- singularity, courage, resolution, integrity, pride, and, finally..." "Transcendence." "The goal is transcendence." "Believe and be free." "[Cheering and applause]" "I didn't mean to hurt you." "Everything's going to be all right." "Good-bye, Danielle." "I love you..." "No matter what happens." "[Beep]" "John Stafford is responsible for your mum's suicide attempt." "Are you asking or saying?" "I'm just telling you what you want to hear, love." "My mother placed this call from John Stafford's office phone." "I came here prepared to pay you whatever it takes for you to take her away from that man and S.R.P." "Why not start at the hospital, Danielle?" "I did go to the hospital first." "She's not there." "Where is she?" "Back at the mother ship." "She won't speak to me." "Stafford won't let her." "How do you know that?" "I know it." "Trust me." "I'm going to expose John Stafford for the scam artist that he is." "All I care about is my mother." "She says smiling." "I beg your pardon?" "What hospital did they send your mum to?" "Stanton Park." "All right." "Loker, Torres, now." "Is he taking the case?" "If he doesn't believe me, why is he taking the case?" "You had him at suicide." "Mr. Garret Sunderland?" "Dr. Sunderland." "Can I help you?" "Like you helped Carol Ashland?" "I'm sorry?" "Carol Ashland, last night, overdose." "Are you, uh..." "Police?" "Do we need to be?" "We're from the Lightman Group." "I'm Ria Torres, this is Eli Loker." "Maybe you've heard of Dr. Lightman?" "Oh, you have?" "Good." "So, enough about us." "Carol Ashland or do you need more time to think of an answer that sounds like the truth?" "I'm not permitted to discuss this." "Doctor/patient confidentiality." "Gastric lavage would be the standard treatment." "It's stomach pumping." "Batting a hundred so far, but she's not at the hospital." "Isn't attempted suicide an automatic 3-day hold, doctor?" "You have a very negative approach, if you don't mind my saying so." "It's a simple question." "Doesn't violate any laws." "I evaluated Mrs. Ashland." "She's not at risk to herself or others." "She's receiving the appropriate care." "Would that appropriate care be Scientific Re-Patterning?" "3 for 3, Loker, not bad." "Fear dilates the pupils, limits visibility, reaction times." "You might want to take the bus." "It seems simple at first." "Identify the negative patterns that are holding us back." "We have to break down the problem." "Tap the infinite energy within." "Can I get a little bit more volume on my left monitor?" "I can hardly hear myself." "What a load of old bullocks, John!" "Your name is John, right?" "Lie to Me 3x06 // Beyond Belief Brand New Day by Ryan Star" "♪ dream ♪" "♪ send me a sign ♪" "♪ turn back the clock ♪" "♪ give me some time ♪" "♪ I need to break out ♪" "♪ make a new name ♪" "♪ let's open our eyes ♪" "♪ to the brand-new day ♪" "Original Air Date on November 15, 2010 sync, corrected by elderman" "How you doing?" "You all right?" "Doctors Lightman and Foster, from the Lightman Group, good morning." "Good morning." "Dr. Sunderland called." "He's a friend of the Scientific Re-Patterning community." "Oh, yeah." "Welcome." "We're actually in the same line of work, doctor." "Oh." "We help people find a positive truth." "I'll bet you do and then some, eh?" "Ha ha ha." "These are 2 of our initiates." "Well, our initiates are back at the office digging up crap on you, mate." "How's Carol Ashland doing?" "She's doing very well." "Thanks for asking." "No, um, she's very well considering-- that's what you mean, right?" "She's in a re-integration session." "It's part of our program." "Oh." "Well, maybe we should come back later." "Yeah, with some of our police initiates." "We're here on behalf of the concern of Carol's daughter, Danielle." "Right, yes, Carol mentioned her." "She wanted her to leave S.R.P." "You really don't like Danielle, do ya?" "Well, Carol's been with us for a couple of years and she's come a long way." "I'm not sure why her daughter would want her to leave." "So, you have nothing to hide at all?" "Well, suppose I interrupt Carol's session, so you can see her and decide for yourselves." "Think positive." "That's what I always say." "Carol?" "This is Dr. Lightman and Dr. Foster." "Hello." "I'm sorry, were you talking to me?" "Only you was looking at God over there." "Carol, we're here on behalf of your daughter, Danielle." "She's very worried about you." "Oh, please tell my daughter not to worry." "There's-- she's always worrying." "She's as bad as my mother, always getting into my business." "You know..." "You can leave with us right now if you like." "I hear you, Carol." "I really do." "Are you sure you didn't just hear what you wanted to hear from Carol?" "Look, she's trapped in there with those S.R.P. robots." "And you know this because you read it on Stafford when you told Carol she was free to leave with us?" "She's terrified of him." "She doesn't know if she's coming or going." "No, I'm asking what you saw in Stafford, not Carol." "Man's a snake." "You've got nothing on him." "When I've got nothing, all right, that is when I really start to worry." "No, that's prejudice talking, not science." "Hey, hey!" "Where are you going?" "We were just going to go out and get some coffee." "Well, what's wrong with our coffee?" "I don't know, nothing." "Keep digging on Stafford." "You can go out for coffee." "You don't have to do everything he says." "He's right." "This coffee is...good." "Go get the coffee you like." "Now." "Hi, ya." "Dad, uh, this is Liam." "Liam." "No, I got nothing." "What happened to Rick?" "Shut up, dad." "I know, it's whatever you want, you're right." "You said you was just leaving?" "Are you asking me to leave?" "Sorry." "Can I just call you later?" "Yeah." "It was nice to meet you." "I hear you're writing another book." "Can't wait to read it." "Don't hold your breath, son." "Dad, come on, he was just being polite." "See you tomorrow." "He seems like a nice boy." "Does everything have to be a confrontation with you?" "What?" "I was being nice, you know, considering, you know, I just come home from work, you know, hard day, nose to the grindstone and that, you know." "I just want a little bit of piece and quiet, you know, maybe a touch of the old telly, you know." "Just like any normal dad, you know, with their normal daughter." "Well, you picked the wrong house for that." "I know what your game is." "What game?" "You feel that you can mess with me by getting an 8-foot boyfriend, who's built like a brick..." "Oh, come on, he's a good guy." "[Beep]" "Does he treat you well?" "I think you'd really like him, dad." "Liam, short for William?" "Willy." "Is that a work text, dad?" "I think you better get going." "Can I have my hug now?" "These people all share the same essential characteristics-- a projection of certainty, a sense of their own infallibility, a sense of being called to a global mission and so on." "We need to find S.R.P. members to talk to or ex-members." "Find out what's going on over there." "Oh, yeah, I have been looking and, uh..." "I found Jane Prescott, ex-member, very prolific on the blogosphere." "Let's see if she wants to come out and play." "[Typing]" "Carol?" "Oh, I want some of what she's smoking, please." "Ha ha." "Thank you for coming back, Dr. Lightman, Dr. Foster." "I feel the last time we met I didn't express myself clearly enough." "We understand." "You've been through a lot in the last couple of days, Carol." "Oh, I get it." "Carol, I do, I get it." "It's shame, right?" "Only you don't want to talk about it." "I mean, not yet, you know, obviously." "I can take a hint." "Right, I feel like going for a nose about then." "Don't run." "It panics the initiates." "Whoa." "I'm in the wrong game, mate." "Oh, we're not so different." "Well, paycheck for starters." "How did you get started in this racket, then, eh?" "It was a natural transition from work I did earlier in my life." "Part of my personal journey." "What, a sort of fortune 500?" "It's not about the money, Dr. Lightman." "S.R.P. is a not-for-profit organization." "All revenue goes toward helping people." "If you hold down anger like that, well, that's like holding down a sneeze." "Sooner or later you're going to get hurt, mate." "You know, your negative view of the work isn't uncommon." "One of your acolytes..." "Tried to kill herself the night before last." "Let's get one thing clear." "S.R.P. is not a religion or a cult." "We don't have acolytes." "What do you call them then, eh?" "Do you ever wonder how people see you, Dr. Lightman?" "You're going to tell me?" "You override people, ignore them." "And then when you feel threatened, you get mean." "You're a bully, Dr. Lightman." "I'm a bully..." "without acolytes." "Ha ha ha." "Um, do you mind?" "This is Joan." "It's ok, I'd like her here." "Thank you, Carol." "I'm pleased to meet you." "Why did you take the pills, Carol?" "I can't dwell on that." "It was a mistake and now I need to re-direct my energies to purging the negative and focusing on the positive." "Are you happy here?" "Yes, I am." "Can't you tell?" "Danielle misses you." "She's very worried about you." "Misses is such a negative term, but I hear you." "My daughter loves me and I love her." "Carol, can you say her name?" "Don't be so distant." "Danielle." "[Crying]" "Thank you." "See, we all have something that we can offer each other." "Hey, how are you getting along with this lot then?" "I'm moving into the fourth transition." "Oh, the fourth transition." "What's that then?" "Become nothing, embrace the void." "Well, that's better than nothing, I suppose." "It's a process." "That's why we're all here." "Glad you could make it, Dr. Lightman." "I would not have missed this for the world." "Ready when you are." "Carol, let's begin with you, ok?" "Tell us about your regression to transition 6." "I need the group to help me." "You need help self-delivery." "Carol, could you explain what you mean?" "Self-delivering is when we embrace the positive realities that we create for ourselves." "What's that mean, then?" "It means we acknowledge our faults, things holding us back, and we re-pattern." "We self-deliver." "Re-Patterning is possible for everyone." "Hey, Carol, wake up." "This is a nightmare." "Dr. Lightman, I invited you here to see our work, not be a negative disruption." "Right then, well, I think I'll self-deliver back to work." "There's room in the van, all, if anyone needs a lift." "Will you send my love to Danielle?" "Tell her that I'm where I want to be and there's no need to come back." "I'm happy." "If you stick around, he's going to hurt you." "Emily?" "[Door closes]" "Hey, what's going on now?" "How did this get here?" "I don't know." "I've never seen it before." "How long have you been up?" "Since I last saw you, why?" "And you got absolutely no idea how this got here?" "None." "What is it?" "You do lock the doors and that while I'm out, don't you?" "Yeah." "Why?" "All right." "Get dressed." "Go on." "You know, I had plans tonight with a friend." "All right, call your Willy, all right?" "And tell him you can't make it." "Why?" "Because I want you to proofread some pages of my book." "I'll pay ya." "I'll make it up to you, em, I promise." "Well, you can start by dropping the Willy joke." "Done." "All right." "So, you actually wrote some pages." "I've got a little problem, em." "Semicolons." "I never understood them." "But you use them anyway." "[Footsteps]" "Hey, em." "Hey, Gillian." "They snuck this into my house while Emily was there alone, doors locked." "That ex-S.R.P. member is going to be here tomorrow." "Maybe she can help us." "These bastards are going down." "You mark my words." "Cal." "Whatever people may feel personally about John Stafford and S.R.P., it's been a great help in my life." "And in a lot of people's lives." "And John would never hurt anyone." "But you left S.R.P., why?" "You can leave whenever you want." "When your course work is finished, it's time to move on." "Broken eye contact, hesitation." "That's a straight up lie, Jane." "No, it's not." "I still embrace the precepts, but I choose to live my own life now." "Precepts?" "Defensive." "She feels attacked." "I'm not trying to attack you, but from the look in your eye, you got a story to tell." "He's in." "I knew John..." "In the beginning." "S.R.P. started off as..." "A beautiful thing, just a few of us exchanging ideas on how we could change our lives." "People got interested and more people came." "We were doing something special." "We were helping them." "And then what happened?" "Money." "And more money, eh?" "You hate the money, don't ya?" "Ruined everything." "It changed John." "He appointed himself our leader." "My boyfriend at the time, Martin, he was the first one to leave." "So, where's Martin now?" "There was a fire." "The police said it was an accident." "John said it was Martin's own negativity that lit the fire that killed him." "You blame Stafford." "You blame mine." "Blame is a very negative term." "You blame yourself." "I blame no one." "You blame everyone." "[Sighs]" "Head down, eyes down, blocking the eyes with the hand." "Shame." "Were you what they call an initiate?" "What are you suggesting?" "You're the one who's doing that, darling." "You still love him." "I will always love Martin." "I'm not talking about Martin and you know that." "Stafford's done with you though, right?" "He's through." "How old are you?" "I'm 37." "You're outraged at the fact that you're being replaced by younger women, right?" "You ever thought of suicide?" "Shame again." "Send this one on to Florida before she goes running back to Stafford." "Stafford's a narcissist." "He's his own weak spot and we just have to wait and he'll trip himself up." "There's no time for that." "He had his thugs break into my house." "I called him a narcissist and you make this about you?" "Oh, that reminds me." "I want a big wanky picture of myself to put up in my office." "Can you just wait until I get my purse?" "You know, it's easy to be negative." "Everything around us is designed to make us think negatively." "But guess what?" "We ain't buying it." "We ain't buying it." "Go on, say it." "All:" "We ain't buying it." "We ain't buying because we know the truth that can't be bought or sold." "[Whispering indistinctly]" "Young lady, would you come up here?" "Ha ha ha." "Welcome." "Mind your back." "That's it." "How long have you been with us?" "11 months." "11 months." "And how's that going?" "Thank you." "I'm on the fourth transition." "Where's Carol?" "I don't know." "No one's seen her." "Right." "Excuse me." "S.R.P. is the best thing I've ever done." "Come on, you can say it." "It's ok, you're with family now." "S.R.P.'s. the best thing I've ever done." "Ha ha ha." "Whoo!" "[Cheering and applause]" "She's disappeared?" "[Background chatter]" "Yeah." "And he knows it." "[Background chatter]" "Dr. John." "Carol Ashland?" "Any news?" "Would you excuse me?" "Ahem." "Um..." "I don't know where Carol Ashland is." "That's the truth and you know it." "You want to know why you get on my nerves?" "I'm going to tell you anyway." "Although I don't see any lies on your face, also, I can't see any truth." "Look, I'm sure you thought you were helping" "Carol by coming here, Dr. Lightman." "Any fear for her safety?" "I can't even see that, can you?" "Maybe Danielle knows something." "Carol's daughter, Danielle?" "It's just the way you said Danielle's name just now, you seem more familiar with her than her own mother does." "See, you know, even though I don't get sweet F.A." "from your face..." "Huh?" "That's a classic, that is." "Ahem." "Were you ever a member of S.R.P.?" "Not really a question, that one, love." "So...on you go." "How did you find out?" "Stafford." "He told you?" "In a manner of speaking, yeah." "I was in S.R.P. until a few months ago." "It just wasn't for me." "What did he do to you?" "I was in the core group, an initiate." "We had sex every day for nearly a year." "I'd be in the middle of something and someone would say John wanted to see me, so I'd go." "Anytime, night or day." "Sometimes you wouldn't even know where you were going." "They'd send a jet and fly you back in the morning." "At first I liked it." "I was proud of myself." "I felt like I was better than the rest of the women." "But then I saw myself..." "What I was really doing." "It got bad...really bad." "Some nights..." "I would just...scratch myself." "My face." "I wanted to be ugly." "I didn't want him to touch me." "But you didn't leave." "You couldn't." "It feels like there's no world outside S.R.P." "So, you come to see us about your mum?" "But it's not just her." "I want to kill him." "Well, it could cost you a little extra." "[Knock on door]" "What are you so excited about?" "[Beeping]" "John Stafford loves a close-up." "Everything's right here." "He's just hard to pin down, all the distorted micro expressions, so I isolated the most obvious examples." "Stop." "Pan on the left." "Go back." "All right, there." "Subcutaneous muscle damage." "No wonder we couldn't get a read on him." "Do you care to take a guess?" "Surgery." "I was already there." "All right, well, calm down because this is the first time I've seen these." "Do you want to see what he looked like before?" "Yeah, fire away." "[Beeping]" "Blimey, no wonder we couldn't get a read on him." "Meet Carl Weatherly from Ontario." "Wanted by the R.C.N.P. since 1989 for vehicular manslaughter." "Leaving a wife and a kid." "John Stafford is not John Stafford." "[Cheering and applause]" "Thank you." "Thank you." "You are about to begin the greatest journey of your life." "Look around you." "Meet your new family." "These people will be with you forever." "Will be with me forever." "Well, by forever, all right, what John means is for as long as he needs a family, you know or you or whoever, really." "Excuse me, Dr. Lightman." "How you doing John?" "You all right, mate?" "Nice pants." "Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to introduce you to John's wife Sandy and his lovely daughter, Liz." "What do you think, girls?" "Who've been kind enough to join us from Toronto, where they've been living..." "Since he abandoned them 14 years ago." "[Crowd muttering]" "Whoo!" "This is the Stafford family..." "Or rather the Weatherly family, as Mr. Stafford was known before he had to leave town." "Lovely family." "John...you were very handsome." "Let's, uh..." "Let's take a break." "Oh, I think we've been invited backstage, which rumor has it, is a rare honor, you know what I mean?" "Re-pattern amongst yourselves." "Could you clear this area, please?" "Please, now." "Well, go on then..." "say something." "You talk for a living, don't ya?" "They came all this way." "Sandy..." "Liz." "Dad." "I'm really sorry." "I was wrong to leave, but I'm a different person now." "Wrong to leave?" "Just wrong?" "So, everything's good now?" "And young and stupid." "I thought you'd be better off without me, I really did." "No, he believes that." "He's probably standing there trying to figure out how to spin this into a positive." "I don't have to listen to this." "She never stopped waiting for you." "Even when she went to college, she'd call to ask if you'd come home." "Not even a letter." "Nothing." "You just disappeared, you son of a bitch." "I thought you were dead." "I hoped you were dead." "I told Liz you had died, but she didn't believe it." "She always believed that she was going to see you again." "You left us with nothing, Carl." "Nothing." "[Crying]" "You're seeing this for the first time..." "But I've been living with it for 14 years." "Come on." "Let's go." "[Crying]" "No." "[Crying]" "This, John Stafford, is your life." "The only crime I've committed, the only wrong I've done-- abandoning a woman and her child, was done out of youthful ignorance and stupidity." "The only crime my ass." "You're wanted by the Mounties, mate." "That matter was resolved." "Oh, really?" "Well, I'll get right on that one, shall I?" "No extra charge." "Look, I've got a new family that I need to protect." "So, for all their sakes, just go." "I'll take care of my family and..." "You take care of your family." "Are you saying something about my family, mate?" "Emily?" "Em!" "The people who are problems in our lives will re-program also, become less negative." "We change others by changing ourselves." "We find ourselves placing expectations on others, which reflect our fears and have nothing to do with..." "Oy, get out here." "Now, both of ya." "We were just experimenting, dad." "Did you bring her in here with this bullocks?" "We were trying to understand the type of person who would be attracted to that." "Don't play with fire, all right?" "Neither of ya, ever." "Dad, seriously." "All right, take her up to my office and stay there, all right?" "Both of ya." "I'll be back in a couple of hours." "You got it?" "[Dog barking]" "Uhh!" "Give me the keys, give me the keys." "Give me the keys." "Uhh!" "Unh!" "I don't need anymore pamphlets, mate." "Unh!" "Now, I'm keeping this, huh?" "For the police." "Right, you can walk back to the bloody mother ship." "Ok." "If I see you in my neighborhood or anywhere else for that matter, ever again, right, that tire iron is going to have a mind of its own." " You get me?" " I hear you, yes." "Now, you tell John Stafford this is over." "Ok, it's over." "But not in a negative way, ok?" "Yeah, yeah, yeah." "Uhh!" "Marvelous." "Now, sod off." "Aah!" "You all right, mate?" "[Rattling]" "The trouble with hubris, Mr. Weatherly, you know, we hold on to stuff." "Things we shouldn't." "And we keep them in places where if anyone knows our original name, they can find them." "Where's my property?" "Where's my private papers?" "Cops took the lot, mate." "What was this place for then?" "Was it like a record of your life history, you know, for prosperity?" "You plunker, you didn't even divorce Sandy, did ya?" "That's going to cost you an arm and a leg, man." "S.R.P. was never about the money." "Oh, what was it about then?" "We helped thousands of people." "What about all the other ones?" "Did you find Carol Ashland?" "She ran away from you." "She was probably scared that she'd have another go at herself if she stuck around you." "What, do you think I had something to do with Carol's suicide attempt?" "Taking an overdose in your office, at your desk." "Saying good-bye to her daughter on your phone, what was that about then?" "I don't know, I..." "You ran away from your family and a manslaughter charge in Canada." "Did you ever think of just manning up?" "Oh, well, here's your chance." "We'll call this the eighth transition to jail." "First precept, knife, the nastiest bastards you can find in there within your first day." "After that, I heard they leave you alone." "[Sirens]" "William?" "Dr. Lightman." "Right well, then." "Dr. Emily?" "Dad." "What should we talk about next then?" "Semicolons?" "What about sport, eh?" "Dad, come on." "Just because he looks like a jock doesn't mean that that's all he is." "All right, Mr. not jock, semicolons, go." "Well, you can use a semicolon as a soft period." "By using a semicolon instead of a period between two sentences, you show that those two sentences have a closer relationship to each other than they do to the sentences around them." "As in, Emily's my daughter..." "Semicolon..." "And I'm having a hard time adjusting to her being a grown up." "Right." "I'll get tea, then." "Quit your garbage." "Well, some of that S.R.P. stuff actually got me thinking." "I mean, some of it makes sense." "It's common sense dressed up, so people want to pay for it." "There's whole shelves at mall bookstores dedicated to that." "Right, well, the trouble is men like Stafford, they prey on you, they make you feel like you're lacking something and that only they have the answer." "Yeah, it sounds like Lightman." "You get a move on?" "What's wrong with the coffee here?" "Nothing." "It's a lot to carry, you know, to have to-- to have to work through." "I don't think I can do it." "I don't know what to say to her." "What Stafford did to you, to your mother, to all those people, it's horrifying." "But he's a sociopath." "But we push back." "And we hold on and we push back." "And we get help from people who really care about us." "So, take this step." "Take all the time you need, love." "sync, corrected by elderman"
