Blind Obsession

Captioning made possible by LIFETIME TELEVISION

HE WAS HERE, HE WAS HERE.

NO ONE WAS HERE.

HE WAS, I SAW HIM.

SWEETIE, HE CAN'TONE. HURT YOU ANYMORE.

HE WAS HERE.

DIRTY ERNIE WAS HERE.

IF YOU BELIEVED IN GHOSTS, YOU WOULD'VE SEEN HIM, TOO.

CALL ME OLD, CALL ME TIRED.

YOU FORGOT MEAN AND UGLY.

OH, WHAT GIVES ?

YOU KNOW, THIS IS A TOTAL WASTE OF TIME.

LOOK, IF TAYLOR THINKS HIS PARTNER IS RIPPING HIM OFF

AND HE WANTS TO PAY US TO PROVE IT, ALL THE BETTER.

WELL, I TURNED DOWN A "G.Q." UNDERWEAR COMMERCIAL TO BE HERE,

AND IT WAS A TOUGH CHOICE.

AND A HUGE LOSS TO MEN'S FASHION, HUGE.

YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR PROBLEM IS, OLD MAN ?

YOU GOT NO FAITH IN HUMAN NATURE.

CHECK YOUR MIC, IS IT ON, TEST, ONE, TWO, THREE.

TESTING, ONE, TWO, THREE.

HOW MANY DO YOU SEE ?

TWO, YOU ?

YEAH, TWO.

OKAY. SEE YOU IN A MINUTE.

CAREFUL.

See anything, Jack ?

Strippers, supermodels.

YOU KNOW, THEY LOOK PRETTY LONELY, TOO.

YOU'D BE BORED.

JUST CUT IT OUT AND STAY SHARP.

THAT'S IT.

SMILE FOR THE CAMERA, BOYS.

MOVE IT.

HEY.

PUT IT DOWN, PUT IT DOWN.

OH, OH !

DYLAN !

DYLAN !

DYLAN !

YOU'RE A DEAD MAN !

OH, MY GOD.

HELP'S ON ITS WAY, JACK, OKAY ?

I'M RIGHT HERE.

JUST BE EASY, JUST BE EASY.

HEY, JACK, JACK, CAN YOU HEAR ME ?

CAN YOU HEAR ME, JACK ?

YES, HARRY.

I CAN HEAR YOU.

JACK, MY NAME IS DR. LOCKER.

THERE WAS A GUN FIGHT, DO YOU REMEMBER ?

YOU'VE BEEN IN A COMA FOR TWO WEEKS.

THE FRAGMENT THAT PIERCED YOUR SKULL

HAS LODGED IN A PLACE WHERE WE CAN'T OPERATE.

THE GOOD NEWS IS IT'S SMALL ENOUGH

THAT WE CAN LET IT REMAIN THERE WITHOUT POSING ANY RISK.

WHAT'S THE BAD NEWS ?

WELL, THE CAT SCAN SHOWS THAT THERE IS NO BRAIN DAMAGE,

BUT THAT FRAGMENT PARTIALLY GRAZED YOUR OPTIC NERVE.

ARE YOU SAYING THAT I'M GONNA BE BLIND,

THAT I CAN'T SEE ANYMORE ?

FOR NOW, IT APPEARS THAT... YES, I AM SORRY.

I STARTED WORKING WITH SOMEONE NEW TODAY.

HIS NAME IS JACK FLETCHER.

* JACK BE NIMBLE JACK BE QUICK JACK JUMP OVER THE CANDLESTICK *

IS HE A "BAT" ?

BEA, I TOLD YOU NOT TO CALL THEM BATS, HE'S A C.V.I.

THAT MEANS--

CORTICAL VISION IMPAIRMENT.

THAT'S RIGHT.

AND GUESS WHAT HE USED TO DO ?

I GIVE UP.

HE WAS A POLICEMAN, JUST LIKE DAD.

DADDY WAS THE BEST POLICEMAN IN THE WHOLE WORLD !

JACK REMINDS ME A LOT OF HIM--

SO STRONG AND HANDSOME,

AND THEN SUDDENLY SO HELPLESS.

PLEASE DON'T DIE, DADDY.

PLEASE.

WHO'S THERE ?

WHO THE HELL IS THERE ?

MY NAME IS REBECCA ROSE.

I'M FROM THE STATE DEPARTMENT OF REHABILITATION.

I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT.

WHAT FOR ?

I WORK WITH THE VISION IMPAIRED.

GO AWAY, LEAVE ME ALONE.

I'M HERE TO HELP.

WHY DID THEY SEND YOU HERE ?

TO TELL ME THAT EVERYTHING IS GONNA BE OKAY,

THAT I'LL ADJUST ?

I'M REALLY VERY GOOD AT WHAT I DO, BUT...

IF YOU'D RATHER, I'LL LEAVE.

WAIT... WAIT.

YOU DON'T DESERVE TO BE TALKED TO LIKE THAT.

PLEASE JUST... COME BACK.

I APOLOGIZE.

APOLOGY ACCEPTED.

JACK.

LOOK, I APPRECIATE WHAT IT IS THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO DO,

BUT DO YOU THINK MAYBE WE COULD DO THIS ANOTHER DAY ?

IT'S REALLY BEST IF WE GET TO WORK RIGHT AWAY, JACK.

PLEASE, REBECCA,

I'M JUST NOT UP TO IT TODAY

ALL RIGHT.

TOMORROW THEN.

TOMORROW.

* REBECCA LOVES JACK REBECCA LOVES THE BLIND MAN *

STOP THAT BEA, BESIDES,

HE MIGHT SEE AGAIN ONE OF THESE DAYS.

* HUSH LITTLE BABY DON'T YOU CRY *

* MAMA'S GONNA SING YOU A LULLABY *

YOU KNOW, BEA, I THINK YOU MIGHT REALLY LIKE THAT SINGING CLASS

THAT I TOLD YOU ABOUT.

IT WOULD BE GOOD FOR YOU TO GET OUT OF THE HOUSE.

I DON'T WANT TO, I DON'T NEED TO.

THAT'S MY GOOD LITTLE GIRL, THAT'S MY GOOD LITTLE BEDELIA.

PLEASE, DON'T.

DON'T TALK TO YOUR UNCLE THAT WAY !

GIVE ME YOUR HAND.

REBECCA !

REBECCA'S NOT HERE, NOW SHUT UP AND DO WHAT I SAY !

NO !

I WISH YOU COULD GET TO KNOW HIM, DAD.

YOU'D REALLY LIKE HIM.

LEAVE ME ALONE, LEAVE ME ALONE, GO AWAY !

GO AWAY !

WHAT AM I GONNA DO ABOUT BEDELIA ?

TURNS OUT THE VINCENZOS ARE WANTED IN 3 STATES FOR LARCENY.

WHAT ABOUT ALEX, I WANT HIS ASS IN A SLING.

YEAH, WELL, THERE'S AN ALL-POINTS, BUT THERE'S NOTHING YET.

YOU KNOW, THEY PROBABLY SKIPPED THE STATE BY NOW.

YEAH, WELL, I JUST WANNA BE SURE.

JESUS, THIS STUFF TASTES LIKE CHALK.

I GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE, HARRY.

YOU CAN'T, WAIT A MINUTE NOW, YOU HEARD WHAT THE DOCTOR SAID.

HE WANTS YOU TO HANG AROUND HERE FOR A FEW MORE DAYS.

WANTS YOU TO STICK AROUND AND RUN SOME MORE TESTS ON YOU.

YOU STICK AROUND.

I FEEL FINE, I WANNA GO HOME.

BLIND AND STILL A PAIN IN THE ASS, YOU KNOW ?

I GOT SOME PAPERWORK TO DO,

SO I'M GONNA CATCH UP WITH YOU A LITTLE LATER.

OH, HI, I'M HARRY.

HI, REBECCA ROSE.

A NURSE ?

YOU COULD SAY THAT.

YEAH, WELL, YOU GOT YOUR WORK CUT OUT FOR YOU.

DON'T LET OLD BLOOD AND GUTS HERE GROWL AT YOU.

HI, JACK.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA SNAP AT ME TODAY, ARE YOU ?

AT THE MOMENT, I'M ALL SNAPPED OUT.

GOOD, WELL, THERE'S A LOT I HAVE TO TEACH YOU.

BUT FIRST I'D LIKE TO TRY SOMETHING.

I DON'T WANT YOU TO ARGUE WITH ME OR ASK ME WHY.

I JUST WANT YOU TO BE STILL...

AND LISTEN.

I'M LISTENING.

FOR WHAT ?

EVERYTHING.

EVERYTHING IN THE ROOM.

( faintly-- clock ticking, cart rolling )

( phone ringing, chatting, buzzing )

YOU'RE RIGHT.

I CAN HEAR ALL SORTS OF DIFFERENT THINGS.

I CAN EVEN... HEAR THE LIGHT.

WHATCHA DOING ?

NOTHING.

FIBBER.

YOU'RE TRYING TO LOOK PRETTY FOR THAT GUY, RIGHT ?

BEDELIA, LET'S NOT DO THIS AGAIN.

IT WON'T WORK.

DON'T YOU REMEMBER, THE LAST GUY JUST TOOK OFF.

THOUGHT YOU WERE WEIRD.

WELL, BENJAMIN DIDN'T UNDERSTAND A LOT OF THINGS.

ANYWAY, IT DOESN'T MATTER, HE WASN'T THE ONE.

THERE IS NO "ONE," REBECCA, IT'S JUST YOU AND ME.

WE HAVE EACH OTHER AND THAT'S THE WAY THINGS ARE.

BESIDES, THEY'RE ALL LIKE UNCLE ERNIE, DIRTY AND FEELY.

BEDELIA, ALL MEN ARE NOT LIKE UNCLE ERNIE.

YOU'RE WRONG, DEAD WRONG !

THEY ALL WANT WHAT UNCLE ERNIE WANTED

AND ALL THEY DO IS TAKE, TAKE, TAKE !

RED ONE MAKES YOU LOOK FAT.

I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS PLACE, HARRY, COME ON, HURRY UP.

THIS IS CRAZY.

DOCTOR TOLD YOU TO STAY PUT.

YOU GONNA TALK ME TO DEATH OR GET ME OUTTA HERE ?

I FEEL LIKE A DAMN GUIDE DOG.

I SUPPOSE YOU'RE GONNA ASK ME TO BARK, HUH ?

GEE, HARRY, WOULD YOU ?

LET'S GO.

I THINK I CAN GET OUT OF THE CAR, HARRY.

I'M NOT A FREAKING INVALID HERE.

YOU'RE ABOUT TO TURN ME INTO ONE.

WATCH YOUR STEP.

COME ON.

I'M ALL RIGHT, I JUST GOT A HEADACHE.

YOU'RE OKAY, ARE YOU SURE ?

I'M FINE, DON'T START, HARRY.
