Look at you. Come here.
I told you,you've got to double- knot those things.
One of these days...
we'll have to get you some zipper shoes.
Father...
why are we doing this?
I know, Maya.
But you'll understand when you see this man.
Ensemble pour toujours, quoi qu'il arrive.
He's in torment...
the way you were when I met you.
I've got patients. I've got sprinklers.
I've got a flood. I'm ready to build an ark.
Hook me up with maintenance. You're killing me!
Your court order, Dr Allen.
You know I'm not comfortable with this.
The patient is legally entitled to it.
The patient has been plagued by temporal lobe seizures.
It is the patient's request, Doctor.
I am aware of that, but I don't think...
he's in any condition to make requests.
I'm trying to appeal to your logical self, Father.
I'm concerned about harm to my patient.
Father Jeremy...
Deacon John Townsend of St Ursula's...
and our associate, Maya Larkin.
Associate?
Secular assistants can be permit ted...
if they are regarded as qualified.
I'm going in with you.
You wouldn't last five minutes.
Just open the door.

It's supposed to be relaxing.

You know why we're here.
I'm really looking forward to it.
Let us prepare the room.

Mr Silberman...
you worked for your whole life at the same company.
- Is that correct? - That's correct.
And you worked with the defendant George Viznik...
for the last two years in the same room?
Right.
How would you describe him?
Quiet. Real quiet.
And on the day of the murders, his state of mind?
He seemed on edge. A little.
On the day of the murders, what did the defendant request?
He asked to go home early.
He said he was bothered...
by all the people who kept telling him what to do.
He said he was bothered...
by all the people who kept telling him what to do?
Is that what you said?
Tell the jury how many people work in that office...
with you and Mr Viznik.
How many people?
Well, just me.
Could those voices have come from outside?
Next room?
- Hey, Mr Kelson. - Hi, Robert.
Thanks.
Here's the stuff you wanted on pathological narcissism.
What about that psychic? What's his name? Szabo?
He can see you Thursday.
I still think it's a waste of time.
The police used him as a witness in the case.
I'll be at my brother's tonight if you need me.
"D" equals two.
"E" equals three.
So four should be five.
"H" is six. "1" equals seven.
"J" equals eight.
"K"...nine.
"N"...twelve.
So "E" equals...
"K"..."P" is twenty-four.
Thirteen..."E."
Two..."T."
Thirteen..."E."
Twenty-six..."R."
"Kelson."
We welcome Peter Kelson...
author of the current best-seller "Vicious lntent"...
as part of today's story on the trial...
of mass murderer George Viznik.
Thank you so much for joining us, Peter.
Thanks for having me, Sally.
Peter, you're making a career of studying sensational murderers.
How does it feel, day after day...
face to face with killers?
Long-term exposure to these things...
tends to give you a sort of clinical understanding...
of the subject.
It sounds as if you're saying the closer you get to evil...
the less evil it becomes.
No, the less mystifying.
Good and evil are only illusions.
I don't believe in evil with a capital "E."
That suggests some kind of external force...
some third-part bad guy pulling all the strings.
Are you referring to the defence's efforts...
to prove that George Viznik is tormented by demonic voices?
There were no voices.
Not even from mental illness as the defence asserts?
Are you trying to get me to say...
there's another cause for little voices?
No. Viznik's a manipulator.
He has what I call malignant narcissism.
Hey, beautiful.
Uncle James.
- How you doing? - Fine, thank you.
That's great.
And you? Lovely as always.
You ready?
Yeah. These guys have been doing this...
twice a week for ten years...
and they still can't get it right.
All right, you shrieking harpies!
Enough of that racket! Be off with you!
Claire! You guys are a little late.
Hey, little brother.
- Hey,Will. - It's about time, man!
I'm starving!
It's good to see you guys out at the house.
You got to come out here more often.
Here, Claire, after you.
Bless us, O Lord, for these Thy gifts.
Through Thy bounty, through Christ our Lord.
And a special blessing...
for Peter and William's mother Andrea...
and their father Jack...
in whose memory we gather here every year.
May their souls and the souls of the faithfully departed...
rest in peace. Amen.
Amen.
Well, dig in.
I made a reservation at Marco's for Peter's birthday dinner...
but I'm thinking I should have you cater it.
Thank you.
- What time did you make it for? - 8.00. Is that good?
Remember that dream I used to have when I was little...
about the bear on the mountain?
You know, right after--
I don't know. Maybe the trial's been getting to me...
because I've been having this weird dream every night.
Really?
You didn't say anything to me.
It's probably trivial.
If it's recurring, maybe it's not so trivial.
OK, I'll tell you.
I'm reading this book...
and I can't remember what the book is when I wake up...
but I realize halfway through it...
it's something that I've written...
or will write, actually.
And, anyway, I get to the end of the book...
and I'm feeling very satisfied.
And I close the cover to read the title...
and the title, it just says "X- E- S."
Just three letters.
For some reason, that makes me feel great.
Then I wake up.
It usually makes me feel great, too.
But l fall asleep right afterwards.
