Épisode Le Miroir recomposé S02E16 - The Pretender Saison 2

Sydney	Jarod, you’ve done this a dozen times before. Choose a photo and become the person. Jarod’s been uncommunicative before, but never during such a routine exercise. And never with such disturbing results.
	Paducah - Kentucky
Miss Parker	Your merchandise is… fascinating.
Jim	That’s the word Jarod used. He was blown away by all the stuff we make He even tried his hand at some mirrors, the warped face, the torso crusher. The shattered image was his specialty.
Broots	Oh, this is weird.
Miss Parker	That is twisted.
Jim	You think that’s twisted, come see this, Jarod’s own house of mirrors. Jarod would stay in here for hours just staring at himself and working.
Broots	Wow. Huh. Check this out.
Jim	Jarod made that. He said it gave him another look into his soul.
Sydney	In child development, mirror stage is where the ego is born. The child realises he’s distinct from his mother. Identity begins.
Miss Parker	What’s it mean?
Sydney	Jarod’s attempting to reconstruct a shattered personality…. shattered life.
	El Paso - Texas
Jarod	Everything okay in here?
Carla	Fine.
Jarod	Hi Nicky. Get down! Take cover and stay down!
Carla	Nicky get down! Get down! Get down! Get down! Baby.
Jarod	It’s okay, it’s okay. Nicky, it’s okay. It’s okay.
Carla	Hey baby, mommy’s okay.
	The next day
Bingham	Dr Leary.
Jarod	Actually, it’s Agent Leary.
Bingham	Special Agent Roger Bingham. This is Andrew Stess.
Jarod	Nice to meet you, Agent Stess.
Stess	I heard you weren’t here 30 seconds before the bullets started flyin’ and that you’re the one that jumped on the kid.
Jarod	Lucky timing I guess.
Bingham	I guess you’re gonna want a medal.
Jarod	Actually, I was just doing my job.
Stess	Meaning we weren’t?
Bingham	Listen ahh… Freud, it’s bad enough Davis thinks someone in the department is leaking safe house location. We don’t need him riding us because some outsider did our job.
Stess	If you wanna be a hero, go do it on somebody else’s watch.
Davis	Jarod, what are you still doin’ here?
Jarod	Commander Davis. I was trying to decide which welcome was worse the ambush last night or Bingham and Stess.
Davis	Look, we’re all under a lot of pressure. Unless that rug rat testifies to what he saw the biggest drug dealer in the Southwest walks away. What’s all this?
Jarod	Nicky was traumatised by what he witnessed. This could help open him up and bring him out of his silence.
Davis	That kid watched Emiliano Vasquez execute one of the best DEA agents in Texas. Then a Vasquez hit team tried to kill him and you think this damn slinky’s gonna help him talk.
Jarod	Well, it’s not that simplistic. You see, studies have shown that if you take a child who’s been…
Davis	Listen, nothing personal Doc, but between you, me and that shot-out window I don’t give a damn about your studies. You got two days to make the kid talk. After that we do it my way.
	The Centre - Simulation Room
Raines	Angelo has been moved. Do you know anything about that Miss Parker?
Miss Parker	Are you talking to me?
Raines	Exactly one hour after he was moved I was notified I’m under Tower review. As we speak, three sets of Cleaners are scouring my personal files, my office, everything.
Miss Parker	I’m crying on the inside.
Raines	Review sessions don’t happen without a directive. If I find out you’re behind this…
Miss Parker	You’ll what? Throw me in front of another T-board? What secrets are you protecting Dr Raines? The same ones my mother found? The ones that got her killed? Maybe they’ll get Angelo to talk, or is it Timmy?
	In a motel
Carla	Nicky, I think we’ll be safer here.
Jarod	Thanks, hi Carla.
Carla	Hi.
Jarod	Hiya Nicky. (he gives him a box full of his own toys) Oh, those are great toys. This, my friend, is my own personal stash of toys. You sir, can play with whatever you want. I got your Mr Potato Head, Magic 8 Ball. This is my personal favourite.
Carla	You know, I’ve never seen a shrink wear a gun before.
Jarod	By definition, I’m a psychological reconstructionist. I use memory and emotion to unlock the truth in somebody who’s suffering from post-traumatic stress.
Carla	Can you give me back my son?
Jarod	That’s the idea. Carla, in order for me to reveal his memories, I have to reconstruct the events of what happened that day.
Carla	Yea, I work as a nurse and I had a few hours before my shift started so I decided to take Nicky and Charlie down to the Laundromat.
Jarod	Charlie?
Carla	He’s Nicky’s cat. I put Nicky in a chair, gave him some chocolate milk. I turned to load the machine, and I started talking to another woman. I lost track of time, and later I heard this popping sound that was coming from behind the building.. I turned around, Nicky was gone.
Jarod	What happened next?
Carla	I panicked and I ran outside behind the Laundromat. And… I saw a man lying there in the alley.
Jarod	Where was Nicky?
Carla	He was gone. I looked everywhere for him while the other woman, she called the police. I’d warned Nicky never to go out by himself. But his cat, Charlie, he …. must’ve gotten out.
Jarod	Then he went to find him.
Carla	I was talking to one of the cops, that’s when we found him.
Officer	There’s the kid!
Carla	Nicky? Oh, little guy. He’d been trapped under the body the whole time. And he hasn’t said a word since then. Can you imagine that kind of fear?
Jarod	It must have been terrible.
	On a parking - The Centre
Raines (under attack)	Willie.
Dannie	Einnad, no!
Miss Parker	Hey!
	In the motel
Carla	Okay Nicky, wash time. Let me clean behind your ears. Come here, reach over.
Stess	I don’t hear this kid tellin’ us that Emiliano Vasquez shot Agent Cruz.
Jarod	Takes time.
Bingham	Sometimes it takes a good swat in the ass.
Stess	Odds are better that Bingham’s gonna match six in the next lottery than this kid locks Vasquez as the shooter.
Bingham	Don’t jinx me. The lottery’s up to 30 million.
Jarod	You know the rumour in Washington is you boys thought that Cruz was dirty, that he wasn’t tryin’ to bust Vasquez, he was selling to him. And that he was using the seizure warehouse as his own personal drugstore.
Stess	Rumours are just rumours. That little boy in there is the only one that knows the truth, and hopefully, before Vasquez finds and silences him for good, you’ll stop playing with your little toys in here and get him to talk.
Jarod	And what would suggest I do? An interrogation?
Stess	Something scared the kid silent. I’m damn sure we could scare him into talking.
Carla	We’re all done here in the bath.

Carla	Hey, Nicky, I’ve got a treat for you. Chocolate milk.
Jarod	(amazed) Now, I’ve heard about this powder. It somehow dramatically alters the composition of the milk right?
Carla	You’ve never had chocolate milk?
Jarod	It wasn’t allowed where I grew up.
Carla	Wow, can you believe that Nicky?
Jarod	Hmmn. Nicky, can I try?
	Fire shots are heard. Jarod saves the boy.
Carla	Jarod, I’ve been shot. I’ve been shot.

Paramedic	Ma’am, we’re gonna roll you out now.
Jarod	Don’t you worry Carla, I’ll take care of Nicky.
Davis	I want the leak sealed. If that means every agent takes a polygraph, then do it. I don’t trust anybody around here.
Jarod	Nicky, your mom’s going to be fine, just as soon as the doctor takes a look at her. In the meantime, would you like to go with me to check out your new place? (he talks about his female playmobil nurse that is locked in a plastic box) Do you think maybe she needs a safe place? (Nicky is still silent) You can trust me Nicky. Would you mind if I put something in here too? (he shows him a photo) This is my mom, I always keep her close. Will you take care of her for me? There. Nicky, after a while, it wont be so bad. And you’ll feel strong enough to put the hurt in a safe place.
	At the Mansion
Jarod	This house sits on a maze of tunnels. This is just one way in or out.
Davis	Why would anybody build something like this?
Jarod	Paranoia. People with everything are always afraid somebody’s gonna take it away.
Davis	They’re usually right.

Davis	Listen up people. Now this house has been built on a series of tunnels. Each tunnel connects the four sections of the estate with entrances and exits both within the house and on the grounds, like these drainage vents here in the driveway. I want every access point secured. Let’s get to work.
Agent	Right.
Agent 2	Okay. I’ll take the point opposite.
Agent	Yeah.
	The Centre
Raines	Get me a real doctor.
Miss Parker	Who attacked you?
Raines	I don’t know.
Miss Parker	I’m trying to help you here.
Raines	Willie, let’s go.
Willie	No problem Mr Raines
Miss Parker	He’s hiding something.
Sydney	He’s still delirious from the anaesthesia. He kept repeating the same thing over and over. Name Enaid mean anything to either of you?
Miss Parker	Enaid? Disgruntled ex-employee?
Sydney	Possible, but those injuries aren’t random. The attacker slashed this into Raines’ arm.
Broots	155. That’s the room in SL 27 where Raines used to run his experiments.
Sydney	Judging from the violence, Enaid may have been one of those experiments.
Miss Parker	You think my mother was trying to save Enaid too?
Sydney	We know she died trying to stop Raines. Possible.
Broots	What the hell was he trying to make out of him?
	At the mansion
Jarod	Blake, Jackson, where the hell are you? Nicky? Nicky where are you?
	He finds them, trying to force Nicky to speak.
Stess	Hey kid, I know you were scared but I’m not buyin’ your little silent act. You look at me when I talk to you. Tell me what you saw.
Jarod	Stess!
Stess	Not now.
Jarod	I need to show you something. (to Nicky) Hey, why don’t you go to your room? I’ll be there in a sec. (to Stess, after he punched him) You so much as look at that little boy the wrong way again and his mother won't be the only one in the hospital.
Stess	Your way inst working.
Jarod	This isn’t just another assignment to you is it? Vasquez is personal. The way I see it, you are not a bully by nature and I don’t think that it’s that innocent little boy’s silence that’s eating you alive.
Stess	You’re the shrink.
Bingham	Hey! What the hell’s goin’ on here?
Jarod	Just a free therapy session.
	The Centre
Broots	No reference to Enaid in the mainframe but I found out it’s a Welsh name. It means life or spirit.
Miss Parker	That’s useful. I need to know who Enaid is and why he attacked Raines.
Sydney	You sure you wanna lock swords with Raines? This tactic backfired against your mother.
Miss Parker	I’m not my mother. (turning towards Broots) Broots.
Broots	Please don’t ask me to search Raines’ office again. My colon can’t take it.
Miss Parker	Relax your backside. I have a better idea.
	At the mansion
Jarod (playing with Nicky)	Hi. What you doin’? Boy, she doesn’t look too good. Maybe I could fix her. Want me to try? There, now she’s all better.
Carla (entereing the room)	Can I play? Come here, ohhh I missed you so much.
Nicky (jumping into his mother's arms)	I missed you too.
Carla	You spoke. (to Jarod) He spoke.
Jarod (smiling)	I heard.
Carla (hugging her son)	Oh baby. Oh.

Jarod	Boy you surprised me Agent Stess.
Stess	How’s that?
Jarod	Well, I never would’ve guessed you to be a decorated officer.
Stess	What the hell are you doing with my file?
Jarod	Let’s see. Decorated in ’93. But every year since then you’ve been on disciplinary review. Excessive force, questionable investigative techniques. In clinical terms Agent Stess, you’re losin’ it.
Stess	I’ve had just about enough of you.
Jarod	Your brother worshipped you didn’t he? But unfortunately his addiction got the best of him. And maybe he was just tryin’ to live up to you. Or maybe he just OD’d on purpose for the attention.
Stess	I could kill you.
Jarod	Save your anger for Vasquez. It was his operation that sold your little brother the heroin that killed him. Look, I know you miss your little brother. You are so hurt and so angry that you can’t see straight. I need your help. Help me bring down Cruz’s killer. Help me save that little boy’s life.
	In front of a warehouse
Miss Parker (after hearing Broots laugh)	What’s Marmaduke up to this week?
Broots	Ahhh, oh I haven’t got to Marmaduke yet.
Miss Parker	That was a quick butt.
Sydney	Since when does Willie smoke?
	They run inside to stop fire.
Broots	I got it, I got it! Phew, there’s gasoline everywhere. He was tryin’ to torch this place.
Miss Parker	The question is why.
Sydney	He was trying to cover Raines’ tracks.
Broots	What tracks?
Miss Parker	It’s written all over the walls. Einnad
Broots	Look at this! It belonged to a Daniel Hilton Minor, Davidson Psychiatric Hospital.
Miss Parker	That’s a surprise, another fun house. Where are the mirrors Syd?
Sydney	Miss Parker, a lot of these prescribed to DH Minor by a Dr Williams. Some of these go back 20 years.
Miss Parker	Williams, as in William Raines.
Broots	Huh.
Miss Parker	What about this wallpaper though?
Sydney	Obsessive. Methodical.
Miss Parker	And wrong. Strange way to spell Enaid, wouldn’t you say?
Sydney	But is that what he’s writing? The answer is in the mirror.
Broots	D-A-N-N-I-E. Dannie. Who’s Dannie?
	At the mansion
Jarod	Hey.
Stess	Yeah?
Jarod	Check this out.
Stess	Check the Mexican bank account that Cruz was trying to check out?
Jarod	Look at the last transaction.
Stess	500 thousand on April 9th.
Jarod	The day after Cruz was murdered. How much heroin did you say was missing from the seizure warehouse?
Stess	Half a mill.
Jarod	Mnn. There’s no name on the account, just a reference number. Hey, how did you get out of your r…. (he sees Nicky entering the room) You couldn’t sleep huh? Is everything safe in there? (he notices the look on his face when he sees the photo) Nicky, do you remember this man? Is this the man from the alley?
Carla (entering the room)	Nicky?
Jarod	It’s okay, why don’t you go back to bed? (Nicky gets out, Jarod talks to Stess) If Vasquez is the murderer, how come his photograph didn’t traumatise Nicky?
Stess	Well, maybe all your Slinky stuff is workin’.
Jarod	Maybe we’re just not seeing the whole picture.

	*DSA*
Sydney	Jarod has been silent for 36 hours, however he’s showing signs of lucidity. Attempting to sketch an image over and over, this woman without a face. I’ve decided to intervene. Can you tell me who she is?
Young Jarod	I can’t see her.
Sydney	Who Jarod?
Young Jarod	I cant remember. I cant remember anymore.
Sydney	Is it your mother?
Young Jarod	Can’t remember, she’s gone. She’s gone Sydney.
	End of DSA
Jarod	She’s gone.
	The Centre
Broots	Out boy Einnad is actually Daniel Hilton Minor, part of a Centre study group in the late ’60s. This file ends in 1982.
Miss Parker	Right after the fire in SL 27.
Broots	That’s right.
Miss Parker	Once Raines lost Room 155, he had no place to work.
Sydney	So he took it elsewhere.
Miss Parker	Preliminary diagnosis, mild depression. What a crock.
Sydney	Well, mild depression can always be amplified.
Broots	Brain-wave manipulation.
Sydney	Whatever Dannie’s initial treatment, the outcome warranted drugs, prescribed in increasing dosages.
Miss Parker	That’s Dr Raines. You got a headache, lobotomise.
Sydney	And a perfectly treatable illness becomes a dissociative identity disorder, multiple personalities. two of them we know as Dannie and Einnad. Looking in the mirror can be comforting to someone suffering from DID. The mirror reflects the image of a unified self.
Miss Parker	My mother couldn’t save him.
Sydney	She tried Miss Parker, she tried.
Miss Parker	But Raines got in the way.
	At the mansion
Jarod (playing with Nicky)	Look what I found. (he gives him the playmobil he found at the laundromat earlier) Do you know what this is? That’s a very very nice hat. And who are you?
Nicky	Mommy.
Jarod	Well, hello Mommy. It’s okay, I’m here to help you and Nicky. you have a cat don’t you?
Nicky	Charlie.
Jarod	Charlie. Well I bet Charlie loves to play in the alley. Is that what happened the day at the Laundromat?
Nicky	I found him.
Jarod	Okay, you found him. And then a man came up right? (Nickys says no with the head) Two men?
Nicky	I was in the boxes. No one could see me.
Jarod	But you could see them. These men, did they look like they came from Mexico? One of the men? And the other man? Jackpot. Um, Mr Jackpot was with the other man? They both had suitcases. And they switched them.
Nicky	And that’s when it happened. Another man came.
Jarod	Agent Cruz. What happened next Nicky?
Nicky	They got really mad and Mr Jackpot pulled out a gun. He shot the other man. Then he fell on me and I was scared and I couldn’t move.
Stess	Jarod, it’s Bingham.
Jarod	Then the policeman came and your mommy came and you were okay.
Carla	Don’t you remember honey? Agent Bingham came with the others and while Mommy was talking to the police, he was talking to you.
Nicky	He took me away.
	*Flashback*
Bingham	Kid, you tell anyone, this is your mommy. (he decapiates the female playmboli nurse)
	*End of flashback*
Bingham (entering in the room)	Any progress?
Jarod	Nothing. Transfer’s gonna happen tomorrow night at 8:30.
Stess	Why?
Bingham	Dr Shrink’s time is up. They wanna take the kid over to divisional headquarters.
	Einnad's warehouse
Miss Parker	What have you got?
Sydney	Dissociative identity disorder where both personalities are compelled to carve out a living space even if it’s within the same home. So far we’ve found only Einnnad’s space.
Miss Parker	We didn’t find Dannie’s.
	An alley
Stess (in a car)	Anyone ever tell you you’re an odd duck?
Jarod (in the car)	Duck? Mnnn-mmm. Odd occasionally.
Bingham (heard thanks to technology)	Howdy.
Vasquez	We’re running out of time.
Bingham	We nail this kid, and five keys will be waitin’ in the alley south of Querube Avenue.
Stess	Brown heroin from the lockup.
Bingham	They’re gonna transport this kid tomorrow night in a government van. Here’s the address. I want you to make sure that transport never leaves the driveway.
Vasquez	No problem. That’d better be primo junk, or I swear, you’ll end up like Cruz.
Bingham	No problemo.
	Einnad's warehouse
Broots	I checked all the doors. Uh, nothing.
Miss Parker	It’s not the doors, it’s walls.
Dannie	Make him stop. kill….kill me please. Please. Kill me and he’ll stop.
Miss Parker	I’m not here to hurt you Dannie.
	At the mansion
Jarod	It’s time to move.
Bingham	Good luck.
Jarod	Thanks.

Stess	I don’t know about you but it’s gonna be a cold day in June before I wanna see that kid again. I’ll call it in.
Bingham	I’ll take a drive around the perimeter.

Stess (welcoming Jarod, Nicky and his mom in secret at the mansion after their car "exploded")	You okay?
Jarod	Thank goodness for paranoia.
Carla	What do we do now?
Jarod	We get the bad guy.
	In an alley
Bingham	Jarod?
Jarod	Don’t look so shocked. I couldn’t resist surviving that explosion. I had to see what a little boy’s life was worth to you. What is it? Five keys? Ten? Now, these guys, they think Nicky’s dead. And Vasquez is gonna want his heroin pronto.
Bingham	I’m gonna have to kill you.
Jarod	Like you killed Cruz? Well, before you pull that trigger, I strongly suggest you check out your primo junk. Mnnnn chocolate. Somehow I don’t think these guys are the chocolate milk type. What’s the matter Rog? Cat got your tongue? Imagine how Nicky felt. he witnesses a brutal murder, has a dead body fall on top of him. Do you have any idea what that kind of fear can do to a child? And then when it’s all over, you threaten to kill his mother if he talks. Well, he’s talking now. He’s telling Davis all about how you deal drugs, how you killed Cruz.
Bingham	You got nothing on me.
Jarod	Come on Rog, admit it. I can stop these guys. I’ve got the real stuff right here.
Bingham	Okay, I killed Cruz, give me the keys.
Jarod	Whatever you say Rog. Got milk.
	Simulation Room - The Centre
Miss Parker	You’ve healed nicely.
Raines	Where did you get that?
Miss Parker	Handball.
Raines	Tower review has been given new evidence. Something about my extracurricular activities.
Miss Parker	You should hire better people. Smoke?
Willie	N… no.
Miss Parker	Oh.
Raines	You remind me of someone I used to know, someone who looked exactly like you.
Miss Parker	I’m not my mother. Don’t make the mistake of forgetting that.
Raines	We should all be careful about the mistakes we make. Shouldn’t we?
Sydney	I just spoke with the hospital. Dannie has been transferred, he’s now my patient.
Broots	Why would Raines wanna create something like him?
Miss Parker	Maybe he was trying to make his own little assassin, but it backfired.
Sydney	Only God knows.
Miss Parker	God and the Centre. When Dannie attacked me, my instinct was to kill him. But when I looked at him, he was begging me to shoot him. I saw someone who might’ve had a chance if the Centre hadn’t gotten its claws into him.
Sydney	You saw yourself.
	In a park
Stess	Looks like Vasquez and Bingham will be going away for a long time. You think you know a guy, and then you find out you don’t really know him at all.
Jarod	Tell me about it. Hey! Thank you for keeping her safe. I have something for you too.
Nicky	Charlie, you came home!
Jarod	So did you Nicky. So did you.
	A telephone cabin / Sydney's office - The Centre
Sydney	This is Sydney.
Jarod	Do you think it’s possible to forget all the terrible things that happened to us when we’re young?
Sydney	Forget? Hell no. But I believe we can use them to make ourselves stronger.
Jarod	I try to be strong, but sometimes all I see is darkness, fragments of who I am. Will I ever feel whole?
Sydney	I don’t know Jarod. I hope so.
Jarod	Me too.
