Silent Rage

Answer the phone!

Answer the phone!

Yeah...

Yeah!

Alright!

Will you kids quiet down?

There's a phone call for you.

If I have to come in there, you'll be sorry! Do you hear me?

Shelly, will you get off my couch?

You're a bunch of wild Indians!

- He shot me and he lied. - You think just because...

- Doc Halman, that you? - ...you're in the 5th grade, you're big.

You ain't shit.

- You ain't shit. - Doc, I need help.

I'm losing it.

Shit!

- I'm losing it. - Shit, shit!

- Shit, shit! Shit, shit, shit! - I'm losing it.

I warned you kids! Now you get on outside, you hear me?

Right now! Come on, outside!

Come on. Let's go out in the back and play.

John, are you there?

Doc, I don't feel so good.

John...

Doc...

- I can't make it. - John? John?

Those kids can drive you nuts, don't they?

Don't they?

And you don't have to be rude!

Sometimes I feel like exploding!

Will you boys come out of that tree?

- Come on, get out of that tree. - Okay.

What are you kids doing out there? You trying to kill each other?

You nuts?

You kids stop that noise!

You hear me? Stop that fighting! You're getting those chickens all upset!

Now come back in the house right now!

Come on.

Stop that fighting, just stop it.

Now I've got a splitting headache, and you're not helping it one little bit.

You all go down to the playground and stay there...

...until you get all of this noise out of your system.

- I don't wanna see your faces till you do. - Okay.

No! No!

Oh, God!

Oh, God, no! Help!

Help! Call the police!

No!

No! No!

No!

We used that phone to call you, sheriff.

Stay out here, Charlie, and get the story.

Okay, okay, calm down, everybody. Just tell me what you saw and that's it.

Hello?

- Oh, look! - There he is, up there!

Jesus!

Halt! Freeze!

Shit.

Got him, sheriff.

Come on.

You okay, sheriff?

- Yeah, I'm okay. - Officer, that man is my patient.

- I have to speak with him, please. - Talk to the sheriff right over there.

- Excuse, me you're the sheriff? - That's right.

My name is Dr. Tom Halman, I'm from the institute.

John Kirby's my patient.

Charlie, go in the house and get my gun and hat, will you?

- In the house? - Yeah, in the house.

Look, sheriff, why don't you tell me what happened?

Your patient killed two people.

I'd like to talk to him.

You can talk to him at the county jail.

Two-five, are you in the area?

Two-five, please report.

Don't do, it! No!

Hold it! Don't shoot! Hold it!

He should be taken to the county hospital. Call an ambulance.

To hell with the ambulance, give me a hand. Come on, this man's hurt!

- No chance, he's in shock. Let's get him out. - He's alive!

Oh, we got a bleeder here, I'm gonna need some help. Sponge.

- How does it look, Paul? - He's in and out.

- God dammit, suction. Come on, come on. - Yes, doctor. We're moving as fast as we can.

Hold it.

Got it.

Was it really necessary to butcher him this way? Whatever happened to the swift clean kill?

Our patient wasn't killed by Manolete, Philip.

- Who? - He was a bullfighter. Cloth. Let's go.

We're losing him.

- Ciatrol, 25 cc. - 25 ccs? That'll put him on the ceiling!

- Make it 35 CCs. - 35 CCs coming up.

Sponge.

How are we doing?

Bingo, that did it. You were right.

Not always.

You really should have stuck with surgery. You've got a real flare for it.

Come on, instead of jerking off and all that behavioral bullshit of his.

Let's not get into that again now, Phil, okay?

- Let's go, sponge. Come on, today, today. - Stabilize, stabilize.

Okay, that's it. Let's sew him up.

Well there are no breaks sheriff, but there's some heavy contusions here.

Your muscles will be a little bit tender for the next couple of days.

Now, I can tape it if you want.

That will take some of the pressure off under here.

- No, that's okay, doc. Thanks anyway. - Okay.

Wow, this is some hospital you got here.

Yes, well it's not only a hospital, you know.

We do research and molecular medicine...

...such as genetic engineering. Things like that.

Don't usually work on ordinary cases, though.

You mean like, you work on monkeys, or something like that?

Yeah, something like that.

I thought so.

Thank you, ladies.

I think we've done all that we can do.

That's alright, we'll finish him.

This guy's body is fantastic.

With the kind of wounds that he sustained...

...it is amazing he's managed to survive this long.

Yeah, too bad his brain didn't survive. His body just hasn't learned that yet.

Tell you, for all practical purposes, he was dead before he hit the ground.

Yup, he's checking out.

Well, sorry we couldn't do anything more.

You wanna try more Ciatrol?

No.

Where are you going?

Where is he going?

The other process just takes too long. Let's accelerate it.

But our formula isn't perfected yet.

I mean, we never tested it on a human being before.

What do we got to lose?

The man's gonna die anyway. Start out with 25,000 units.

Wait a second. Wait a second. Wait a second. Hold it, Paul.

Are you serious, Phil?

Phil, you can't use the Mitogen 35 on a human being.

There's always a first time, isn't there?

Dan?

Charlie, why don't you go back to the station?

- I'll wait here. - Oh, it's alright, I'll wait here with you.

I have nothing to do.

Charlie...

How ya been?

Since when?

- Since... - Since us?

I don't know. It's hardly a memory.

Zero. It's back to the test tubes.

Our process failed.

No, damnit.

Just give it a little bit more time.

Come on, it's over, Phil. The man is dead.

Oh no, he's not.

No he's not! He's coming back.

Increase the unit count. Make it 50,000.

Phil, what are you talking about?

Look what the Mitogen is doing to his brain pattern.

This isn't right, this is illegal, and this is immoral.

We have a vegetable laying here on the table...

...that was a human being with a mind as well as a body.

Is this where you're gonna start talking to me about souls and playing God?

No, I'll tell you exactly what I'm talking to you about.

We don't know what the formula's going to do to this man's mind, Phil.

Will you do me a favor? Will you look at that?

Look, this guy's mind was unbalanced to begin with.

Phil, I'm telling ya, I say let this man die in peace.

You guys wanna flip a coin or something?

- Yeah, you're right. - Yeah.

Let him die in peace.

Okay, look, it was a long night. You want a drink?

Yeah.

In my office. I'll be with you in a minute.

Phil.

We did the best thing.

Goodnight, Tom.

Now...

...we do the right thing.

Come on, live.

Live.

Live.

He's dead, I'm sorry.

We did all we could do. He was too far gone.

- Okay, thanks anyway, doctor. - Right.

How are you feeling? You feel any better?

Well, I'm feeling fine, thanks.

You know, I just wanted to tell you that, I really feel terrible...

...about what happened today.

If there was any indication he was capable of doing what he did...

...he would have been in an institution. I guarantee that.

He would not have been out on the street.

- I know that. Thank you. - Okay.

Sheriff, look, if I could be of any further assistance...

...or help you out in any way, I'd be happy to.

- Okay, sure I'll be sure to contact you. - Okay, thank you.

- Tom. - Yeah.

Nancy called. She was worried why we weren't home for dinner...

- ...and I told her that you had an emergency. - Oh, okay.

- Okay. - Oh, I'm sorry.

- Sheriff... - Stevens.

Stevens, this is my sister Alison, Sheriff Stevens.

- Yeah, we've met. - Really?

I need a ride back to the station.

- Are you interested? - No.
