"Previously on "Miracles"" "Father's got some guy who's supposed to check the site for miracles." "I'm the guy." "I'm waiting for you." "Thomas?" "There's someone's here to meet you." "What did Tommy do?" "He heals people." "Father Calero used to take all us kids to the games." "He ran the orphanage, where I grew up." "You don't have parents?" "Everyone's got parents." "I just never knew mine." "You have no idea what this takes out of him." "For God's sake it's killing him!" "He healed people, I saw it." "He died healing me." "Paul, there's no proof here." "With all due respect, Monsignor, I resign." "I've seen what you've seen." "Why would God do that?" "Who said it was God?" "We may be able to help each other." "Hi, Paul." "Good evening, Sherwood." "How are you tonight?" "I have to give a speech at the symposium." "Can you believe my luck?" "I really need you to keep trying." "Just move your eyes a little, Sherwood." "Pick a letter." "Any letter at all." "Well.. we're gonna keep at it." "We're not giving up." "I enjoy an Arcane Medical symposium as much as the next man who has no life, but why the sudden interest in Sakovsky's Syndrome?" "A small percentage of those who carry the genetic marker for Sakovsky's have been known to exhibit paranormal abilities as well." "Dr. Bauer is one of the world's foremost researchers on the disease." "So, we're just gonna listen to the good doctor?" "As opposed to...?" "As opposed to asking questions at a scientific forum with words like "paranormal" in them." "But I have no intenteion of keeping quiet, if that's what you mean." "I'll be in the back." "Suit yourself." "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen." "I only have a few minutes to answer your questions about Sakovsky's disease." "But first, I'm going to ask you to do something for me." "I'd like you all to do me a favor." "Sit as still as you can and imagine you have this disease." "You cannot move a single muscle, not even your eyes." "You cannot feed or care for yourself." "If something goes wrong with your ventilator, you'll be dead in a few short minutes." "Polio was stubborn." "Sakovsky's syndrome is stubborn." "But then again, so am I." "Now, if there are any questions.." "Uh, Dr. Bauer." "According to Dr. Linden's studies at the Rygard Institute, there's an overlay in the genetic predisposition for Sakovsky's with those who display paranormal abilities." "You're quoting junk science from an unaccredited institution." " Dr. Bauer... ?" " Yes, ma'am?" "Well, actually Dr. Bliss' research at Heidelberg supports these findings." "I'm curious, have you noticed any anomalies in your patients?" "Well, none of them were predicting the future or trying to read my mind the last time I checked." "He's kind of a blowhard, huh?" "Now, if there are any relevant questions.." "Doctors can be kind of pompous." "Actually, I was talking about Sherlock there." "But if they can't communicate, how do you know what they were experiencing?" "Ah." "Him." "Do you know him?" "Uh, only in the sense that, I, uh.. work with him." "Oops." "My bad." "All right." " Dr. Bauer." " Yes, ma'am." "I'm Raina Bauer." "Paul Callan." "Nice to meet you." "Pleasure." "Bauer.. are you, uh, related to..?" "Only by blood and temperament." "I'm his daughter." "I'm sorry that I called him "pompous", but.." "Oh, he is pompous." "And brilliant, charming and funny when he's had some sleep." "So, what do you do with the Englishman?" "Are you a ghostbuster or something?" "It's a little hard to explain." "I work for an organization called Sodalitas Quaerito." ""Brotherhood in Search of Truth."" "You've heard of it?" "I know Latin, eight years of medical school." "You're a doctor." "Do you work with your father?" "God, no." "It would be a disaster." "No, I'm just in town visiting for a few days." "Where do you practice?" "California." "Dad and I get along better with a little distance." "So, you look for Truth outside the normal boundaries of things?" "Yeah." "Found any?" "Ladies and Gentlemen.." "That would require a longer converation, which we could have." "Gotta jet." "Nice to meet you, Paul Callan." "You too." "Miss me?" "Sherwood exhibits a mild elevation of alpha waves." "A stress reaction, no doubt, to the flux treatment." "We will continue treatment, until we're certain." "No progress." "A" "Sherwood." "Is that you?" "Y" "E.." "S.." "Sherwood." "You did it." "No, you did it, doctor and now all you need to do.." "is re-formulate the stats." "The pheracine is more tolerable than the current model allows." "This is because y in the x factor.." "Sherwood." "..occuring as the cells divide." "Infusion every four hours is the answer to this dilemma." "Dr. Bauer?" "Are you getting this down?" "s01e03 The Patient" "..where Z is the proximate sheath decay in the temporal nerve discard will help insure that platelets and interferon levels remain in relative stasis." "Sherwood." "Sherwood?" "Beddy-bye time for Sherwood." "And you, by the looks of it." "Imagine not being able to sleep." "Yeah." "Are you gonna go home and get some?" "Soon." "I may be losing my mind, but apparently," "I'm getting information from my patient." "Sherwood Nicholls is providing me with the cure for his own disease." "Now is it possible to increase the dosages radically by using pheracine in conjuction with its antidote?" " Morning." " Hi." "Oh, some woman just called for you." "Who?" "Said her name was Raina." "Raina Bauer?" "You know more than one Raina?" "No." "That would be the one." "Dr. Bauer's daughter." "I met her last night at the symposium while I was hiding in the back." "What were you hiding from?" "Me." "I'm afraid I embrassed Paul with some of my questions." "You'll get used to it, someday, maybe." "Shouldn't we be more, uh, more discreet?" "Not everyone knows how to handle all this darkness." "What?" "Oh, I wouldn't want to overstep my bounds." "No, please." "In terms of handling the darkness, I was just wondering, uh.." "Is it everyone you're worried about or just you?" "Did she leave a number?" "No." "Why not?" "Because she didn't." "She did say that she was walking through" "Braddock Park and that she would call back later." "Braddock Park." "You like this girl, don't you?" "I hardly know her." "It's only a couple blocks to that park." "I just want to review your son's history, Mrs. Nicholls." "Sure." "How is he?" "Well, Sherwood is doing as well as can be expected." "Look, I was curious, what subjects was he interested in before he got sick?" "Well, he loved cars and tv, going to the beach, things like that." "But he never showed an interest in say, uh, genetics or molecular biology?" "I don't believe so." "He always knew when the weather was going to change and who was going to win the football games." "And puppets, Sherwood loved puppets." "All right, thank you very much, Mrs. Nicholls." "Let me know if you have any other questions." "Yes, we'll keep you posted." "Thank you, Dr. Bauer." "Good day." "Paul?" "Hi, uh, I was just.." "I heard you called." "Yeah." "Thanks for coming." "Is everything all right?" "I'm not sure." "Last night, your friend said that people with Sakovsky's sometimes have paranormal abilities." "You believe in that stuff, right?" "Yeah." "You've seen things?" "Here and there." "My father's been working on this disease for, years now, and last two have been especially hard for him." "Last night, he came home with a new theory and formula, a big breakthrough, given to him by one of his patients." "I thought they couldn't move or speak." "They can't, they're hooked up to communication devices and no one in the advanced stages has been able to use one, until last night." "I sort of snuck on dad's computer at home after he passed out, and he downloaded all this new data from his patient's computer." "It carries special codes the voice box will broadcast." "This breakthrough came from the patient." "Have you talked to your father about this?" "My father and I don't talk." "There's kind of a gulf there." "Don't get me wrong, he's a great man." "He overcame tremendous obstacles in his life and made sure mine was a whole lot cushier." "But we're not, um.." "Are you close with your father?" "Not really." "So you get it." "Even if I won the Nobel Prize, I'd still be his little girl." "He'd never be able to hear this from me." "I was hoping.. you could talk to him." "You're nice and more approachable than your friend Keel." "He might be able to accept the notion of something occuring outside of his rigorous mindset if it came from you." "I'd pay you." "No." "You won't do it?" "No, yeah, uh.." "I want to help." "I just don't want you to pay me for it." "I'll look into it." "The patient telling the doctor how to cure the patient." "Now this... is interesting." "I wonder if this patient is acting as a sympathetic conduit for Dr. Bauer." "The doctor spends untold hours with him." "Central to the doctor's mind is his tremendous need for a breakthrough." "The patient somehow broadcasts this need into the void." "I don't believe it." "Well, Raina said it came.." "Not that, that you didn't get her number." "I'm not doing this because I want to date her." "Tricky thing... broadcasting wishes into the void." "Why?" "It can play games." "It can mirror our own worst impulses and.." "reflect them right back on us." ""Be careful what you ask for."" "But any breakthrough in this disease is positive, so.." "whatever force is behind it is positive also, right?" "Perhaps not." "If it's a Dark Energy, it won't appear so at first blush." "The devil always comes in wondrous guise." "It's very preliminary," "I've just only this morning started the trial on patient Nicholls." "But the idea is fairly simple, stimulation of the neurotransmitters with extremely high dosages of pheracine with equally high dose of doxaclin." "Pheracine's antidote?" "Now, the idea is that pheracine clears the synapses, hopefully helping them to fire." "And the doxaclin detoxes before they clog from the high doses." "I would have thought of it.. in, like, twenty years or so." "Now, we have to proceed with caution." "I want to set up a double-blind immediately." "Julia, what is Sherwood doing here?" "I don't know." "You told me to bring him." "I.." "I don't believe I did." "I just got your e-mail." "It said," ""Bring Sherwood to the lab immediately."" "Well, it's, uh.. it's time for morning rounds." "We'll take him back to his room." "Run the numbers on all this to make sure I'm not off my rocker." "Dr. Bauer is a great man." "His new treatment is working for me already!" "Oh, my God!" "Dust your tux off, boss." "Nobel prize, here we come!" "Way to go, Dr. Bauer." "Dr. Bauer." "Are you all right, sir?" "Who are you?" "I'm Paul Callan." "I work with Alva Keel, the man at the symposium last night who was asking about the Linden and Bliss.." "I don't have time for this." "Look, I just want you to know, if there's anything going on that doesn't quite make sense, we might be able to help." "I have real work to do." "Mr. Nicholls?" "Sherwood." "Do you know things?" "Sorry." "I'm, uh..." "I'm really sorry." "Some things." "There definitely was a breakthrough." "A big one?" "The Lord's "take up thy bed and walk" kind, by the looks of it." "Did you talk to Bauer?" "I did." "I also tried to talk to the patient." "And?" "Nothing, except..." "What?" "Well, it's silly, but I thought I could smell tar in his room." "Really?" "Is that significant?" "Yes, it might indicate the presence of a 'merry prankster' entity." "Or something worse." "Look, I got to run an errand." "I'll be back later." "Are you gonna ask her out?" "Goodbye, Evelyn." "9:06 P.M." "I've done something I shouldn't have." "I've used information.." "that was given to me.." "in a way that I don't fully comprehend." "I have never done anything dishonest or unethical in my life." "I acted alone." " Hello." " Hi, Dr. Bauer." " Sherwood?" " Whatcha doin'?" "What do you want?" "You haven't done anything wrong." "You're a great man." "Everyone says so." "Why don't you close the door so we can talk." "Hi." "So, you're stalking me?" "No, I was just, uh.." "Parked alone.. in front of your house at night." "Want some coffee?" "Sure." "Here's hoping you're wicked shy and not a serial killer." "It's really good." "Only thing I know how to cook." "Is this a decaf with three sugars?" "Mm-hmm." "How do you know what I drink?" "Mmm, lucky guess." "You seem like a guy who's half easygoing, half big jolt." "Is this what we look like to you?" "Father and absentee daughter at opposite ends of a childhood home?" "I know a little something about absentee parents." "Paul, you're someone who tries to help people." "That's one of the things I find attractive about you." "There's other things?" "But you've got to understand." "Although I love my father and he loves me, there will always be a gulf." "It's unbridgeable." "And I've accepted that." "Okay." "Can we drive?" "Yeah." "Okay, this car doesn't seem like you." "It's Keel's." "Mine kind of got hit by a train." "When I left for med school in L.A., everyone thought I was nuts." "All they do is drive around in cars out there." "Ooh, I love watching the world go by." "Practice keep you busy in California?" "It's always something." "I still try and get out, have a life." "How about you?" "What do you do for fun?" "Well, we went to Pennsylvania a few weeks ago." "We?" "Keel and I." "There was this set of identical twins born to 2 separate mothers." "And then there was this shining cross in Calexico." "None of which really sounds like fun." " My work is.." " Freaking weird." "If you're gonna go poking around in the dark corner of things, you got to balance it out a little." "You're a nice guy." "You seem pretty smart." "Are you sure this is what you want to do with your life?" "No." "Still, you're doing it." "Is it like a calling?" "Yeah." "I guess I'm drawn to the dark corner of things." "How come?" "What are you looking for in all that dark?" "I keep hoping I see some light." "Maybe you're not looking hard enough." "Why don't you pull over?" "Look, I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to, uh.." "Do you want me to take you home?" "No." "I want you to pull over so you can kiss me." "Sorry!" "Could you, uh.." "Thanks." "Hello." "Dr. Bauer?" "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "Is everything all right?" "No, I can be there in 15 minutes." "No, I want to help." "I'll be there." "Okay." "He says there's something at his clinic he wants me to see." "I guess I should drop you off." "No, no." "I'll grab a cab." "Thanks for doing this." "Oh, and, uh, rain check on the other?" "I appreciate you coming." "Look, you said you could help if something was happening that didn't make sense." "Yes." "So, something's definitely happening." "And my only credible hypothesis is I think I'm losing my mind." "Sherwood.." "did you somehow.." "call my home tonight?" "And ask me to have Paul Callan meet us here?" "I thought he gave me your number." "Dr. Bauer." "The man I work with has great deal of expertise in this area." "Why don't I give him a call." "Paul, I wouldn't do that if I were you." "Paul, we don't want Keel in on this, do we?" "Three's a party, four's a crowd." "Keel doesn't trust you." "You know that, right?" "If he did, he'd be telling you a whole lot more." "Layers within layers, that one." "What's going on?" "Just chattin' with my friend Paul here, doc." "How do you know my name?" "Oh, it's on everyone's lips where I come from." "And where's that?" "Ha ha." "Oh, speaking of, Tommy says "Hi"." "Who-who's Tommy?" "Paul had a friend." "He died." "It's very sad." "How'd he die, again, Paul?" "Oh, that's right." "He died saving your skin and you let him." "A little boy." "Nice." "Exsurgit Deus et dissipantur inimici eius!" "What was that?" "Is that an exorcism?" "Pray." "It worked." "Well, no." "Nice try, Paul." "I just don't swing that way." "Merci pour l'assistance, Dr. Linden." "Yes, yes, yes, of course I'll get you a photo." "Uh-huh." "Okay." "Well, good night." "What are we sending Dr. Linden a picture of?" "Das Unterweimer." "Okay." "That doesn't sound like a "Merry Prankster"." "It's a similar pedigree." "They both give off a scent of tar when present in a human being." "But this one is extremely malevolent." "It's deadly, in fact, a parasitic energy always looking for ways to get in." "Get in?" "To us?" "I'm afraid so." "If Dr.Bauer's patient did have paranormal abilities before he got sick, this would only make him more vulnerable to this kind of an intruder." "So, what does it want, to kill the patient?" "No." "The patient is just it's ticket into our realm." "It wants to destroy us." "Us?" "Humanity." "It's quite seductive." "It makes you think it's on your side, and then, what it does is it uses your deepest doubts and fears to destroy you." "Goody, so, it's going to start by destroying Dr. Bauer?" "I believe so." "Him and his work." "Well, what about Paul?" "Wouldn't this thing target Paul in two seconds flat?" "Oh, yes!" "Let's keep him away from it and not have to find out." "What are you looking for?" "Aha!" "We have any film for this?" "This Unterweimer carries an electric charge." "It loves to meddle with phones and computers." "And that charge also gives off an aura invisible to us" "But, uh... guess what?" "It shows up in photographs." "So, how do we get rid of it?" "That gets a little tricky." "See, it thrives on the energy of the human host, so, the only way to send it back from where it came is to kill.." "the host." "Smile." "Dr. Bauer, you're a good man." "Why have you gotten mixed up with Paul?" "Do you have any idea who he is, what he is?" "Go ahead, answer it." "It's from an old friend." "What?" "You don't want to talk to your mom?" "That's not very nice of you." "Dr. Bauer, you need to leave now." "No!" "Paul Callan doesn't even exist, doc." "Listen to.." "Don't listen to him!" "He's not your patient anymore." "He's some kind of entity." " Paul's the entity." " Doc!" "He's a projection of your own.." "doubts and fears brought on by exhaustion and.." "Doc, look at me!" "And those little pills you've been gobbling the last three months." "Oh, nice." "Shove a cripple." "You leave with him, you'll be ruined, and you'll never get the answers." "Ignore him!" "Tell him about his daughter, Paul." "What about her?" "Paul.. are you in love?" "What about her?" "!" "Man has a right to know if you're seeing his daughter." "You're what?" "!" "Raina is very worried about you." "She asked me to look into this to help you." "All right?" "Paul, I don't like what you're thinking." "Paul, you're hurting me." "It's all right, doc." "You did the right thing." "Now listen." "You can have all the answers, you can know everything." "If you just do what I tell you." "Doc, look at me." "You can cure this disease." "Isn't that what you want?" "The key is in the dosage." "The real benefits occur at ten milligrams, for us and for you." "Me?" "Give it to everyone on the B-ward." "Then take it yourself." "All your questions will be answered." "All your worries will be stilled." "And you won't need me anymore." "Will you do that for me, doc?" "Yes." "Yes." "Doo, do, doo..." "Hey!" "You cannot enter a patient's room without the.." "Oh, my god." "What happened?" "Paul." "How'd you know I was here?" "Raina called." "She said you were in trouble." "Where's her father?" "I think he's gonna hurt the patients.. and then himself." "You were supposed to be out cold." "Did someone tell Dr. Bauer to overdose the patients?" "Wasn't me." "Ten milligrams will kill them!" "That isn't my good side." "Dr. Bauer!" "He's not on this floor!" " Where's the B-ward?" " Upstairs." "And the patients?" "He hasn't hurt any of them yet." "All right, you got me." "Let's chat." "Oh, you're locking us in." "That's kinky." "I know you're a man with questions, and I can answer every one." "The ritual murders in Geneva." "What's coming next?" "Wouldn't you like to know?" "Don't touch that." "Alva.. wanna talk to your mother?" "I can put you in touch." "I know you blame yourself for her death, but.." "after what your father did to her.. and you.." "I do have one question." "Now we're talking." "What is it?" "Do you have a name?" "Well.." "they call me.." "Mr. Friendly." "Goodbye, Mr. Friendly." "Don't." "Dr. Bauer!" "Dr. Bauer!" "He's not up here!" "Dr. Bauer!" " Should this be locked?" " No." "No!" "Don't!" "I have to know!" "I have to know!" "Open up!" "Open up this door!" "Let me in there!" "It's all right." "He's gone." "Raina." "You're gonna be all right, dad." "I love you." "How's he doing?" "Whole lot better." "Thank you for saving his life." "He's a good man." "I know." "He didn't have it in him to harm his patients, just himself." "You know, he did have an honest-to-God breakthrough before that thing distorted it." "His ideas for the new treatment were sound." "Patients are starting to respond." "How much do you think I should tell him?" "You have good intuition, Paul." "You tell him whatever you think he can handle." "So, you're going back to California?" "This very day." "You, uh, need a ride to the airport or anything?" "Uh, no, I've got that covered." "I'm gonna miss you." "California's not that far away." "You're a good man." "You keep looking for that light." "You'll find it." "Can I kiss you?" "Please." "See you 'round, Paul Callan." "Hey." "How'd you know to send my people to help me at the clinic?" "The same way I knew how you liked your coffee." "Some things, you just know." "Dr. Bauer?" "Mr. Callan." "Hello." "Please, come in." "Thank you for coming to see me." "I believe I owe you a great deal." "How are you feeling?" "Like I finally slept after two years." "What do you remember?" "I remember.." "I thought you weren't even real." "But then you did something smart, you brought up Raina." "So, has all this brought you closer to your daughter?" "Yes." "I was lucky to have her for as long as I did." "I only wish.." "I had told her more often before she got sick." "I'd like to think somehow she knows." "What do you mean?" "Well, you're the one who subscribes to these kinds of things, Mr. Callan." "When she died two years ago, from Sakovsky's.." "I vowed I wouldn't rest until I found a cure." "Now I feel.." "that she wants me to rest.." "and let go." "Mr. Callan?" "Are you all right?"
