you.
I just gave her
a psychological Band-Aid, Matthew.
I should talk to her some more.
You could bring her by my office
tomorrow around four.
What's the matter with her?
It's like there's some kind of
hallucinatory flu going around.
People get over it in a day or two.
All I can do is treat the symptoms.
She's gonna be OK?
A good night's sleep wouldn't hurt.
- Is it contagious?
- Oh, Matthew!
- Take her home to her boyfriend.
- That wasn't what I was thinking.
I was just wondering
if the Health Department should look at it.
Who knows? I don't know.
I wish I did.
OK.
Take her home, Matthew.
Ah, Jack. How was the book party?
Is that Kibner's new book?
Didn't get to read your poetry?
I'm sorry, Jack.
Good evening. Bellicec Baths.
Yes, we recommend the 1 5-minute soak
in Calistoga volcanic ash,
that's followed by
an Aqua-Surge whirlpool dip.
Hey, can you help me outta here?
Bellicec!
I'm talking to you. Give me a hand.
Help me outta this thing.
Stan...
Every week we go through this.
- Why can't you be more cooperative?
- Get me a towel.
You are really gonna get hurt
one of these days.
Give me another towel, would you?
Come on.
Nancy, shut the music off.
It's for the plants, Stan.
Screw the plants. I hate the music.
It's wonderful for my plants.
They just love it.
Plants have feelings, you know,
just like people.
It's fascinating. This type of music
stimulates the growth of the plants.
They've done tons of experiments on it.
- Come on, Nancy. Turn the music off.
- Relax.
You're not gonna enjoy this if you don't.
Oh! Mr Gianni, what are you doing here?
This is must reading, Mrs Bellicec.
Worlds ln Collision by Velikovsky.
Oh, yes. I've read that many times.
Have you read Star Maker
by Olaf Stapledon?
That's must reading, too.
- Well, it's awfully late, Mr Gianni.
- You're so smart.
Oh, Mr Gianni,
you've been sitting in that mud too long.
It is possible to overdo it, you know.
Oh, by the way, thank you for that plant
you gave me last time.
I'll walk you inside.
You don't have to.
Geoffrey?
That was sweet of him.
You all right?
I'll see you tomorrow morning.
Thank you, Matthew.
You've really made me feel better.
And I'm gonna think about
what Kibner said.
OK.
Thanks for helping. Goodnight.
See you.
Jack?
Honey, where are ya?
I don't wanna disturb you if you're
thinking, but I could do with some food.
I haven't eaten all day. Oh...
Oh, Jack, you're gonna suffocate.
My nose...
Let me out! Let me out!
My nose is bleeding.
Who is it?
Who is it?
It's Matthew.
- Come on in.
- What happened?
Back here.
- Matthew, I called you here as a friend.
- Oh, Jack...
Do you report things like contagious
disease or a body in a place of business?
- Let him look at it.
- You found a body?
- No, not necessarily.
- I thought it was Jack.
Is that him?
Yeah, under there.
- What kind of joke is this?
- It's no joke.
What is it?
- What the hell is it?!
- Just keep calm, Nancy.
Is it contagious?
- Did any of your customers see this?
- No.
It'd ruin us.
- I'm calling the police.
- Don't do that.
- Why?
- Nancy, don't.
Because I think Jack is right.
It's not immature exactly.
He's got an adult face.
- It's a monster. It's got hair all over it.
- It's vague.
Nose, lips, hair.
Hands, everything,
but no detail, no character. It's unformed.
Jack, don't touch it.
You don't know where it's been.
No respiration.
It's got no fingerprints.
No fingerprints?
Like a foetus.
You just said it was an adult.
I said it was an adult because it was tall.
- How tall are you, Jack?
- Six foot four.
- How much do you weigh?
- 170.
- Why?
- Oh, no.
No, Matthew.
Oh, Jack!
- Who are you calling?
- Elizabeth.
Why?
Why are you calling Elizabeth?
- Matthew...
- Why?
Hello?
Elizabeth? Can you hear me?
It's Matthew, Elizabeth. Hello?
What's the matter?
Elizabeth, can you hear me?
Who is this?
Hello?
- Where are you going?
- A friend of
