Speaker A
Again. We're sorry, we just wanted to talk to you for a few minutes. About what? Just a few questions, please. I said no. Please, it won't take long at all, just a few questions. I said no. What now? Plan B. Am I gonna regret Plan B? Only if we get caught. This is a bad idea. You say that about all my ideas. Because they're all bad ideas. You learn more from failures than successes. You must be a genius by now. Okay, I think if I can climb up here, it seems sturdy enough, so I think I can get up and maybe you can lift me. Hey, that might work. It's a good find. Thanks. What are we looking for? In one of the videos he talked about doing years of research, okay, so there's got to be books, journals, photos, something. We're not just gonna steal them, are we? No, we're just gonna get what we need, and I'm gonna grab them on my phone. Good plan. Thank you. Get out. Get out of my house right now. Absolutely. Just five minutes, please, just a few questions. If you cannot see the gun in my hand, I can recommend a good eye doctor. Otherwise, get out of my house or I will shoot you. Five minutes, we would not do this unless we had a really good reason. I changed my name to get away from nut jobs like you who think this crap is real. Wait, so you don't believe it? Of course not. Then why'd you change your name to Fenris? I was actually the one who figured that out, just FYI. I think you believe it. I don't think you're gonna shoot us. How do you know that? You're a doctor, don't doctors take an oath to do no harm? God, I hate that oath. I was living in Wisconsin. A woman was rushed into my ER, unconscious. I removed the arrow and she woke up. Three minutes later, the wound was gone. You mean healed? As if it never happened. I learned two things that day. There are some people in this world who heal with an ability that science can't explain. Imagine what that means to somebody who's dedicated his life to healing. It's like catching a glimpse of the Holy Grail. What's the second thing? There are also some people in this world who want to kill them. You want to guess why they use an arrow? She wouldn't heal until it was taken out. They also cut them in half. Sever the body, there's no way it'll heal. Why did they want them dead? They're the unknown. They're something more powerful than yourself. I can't imagine why anybody would be afraid of someone like this. I spent five years looking for her. Found her here in Beacon Hills and then she disappeared. All I found was this old photograph of her and a young man. Probably her son. When I connected the woman to the werewolf myth, I found that there were differences between those born and those bitten. Those families who are born into it were said to have a ritual once a year on the wolf moon. Wolf moon? Native Americans gave every full moon a name. February is the ice moon, storm moon in March. They call January the wolf moon because hungry wolves would howl outside the villages in mid-winter. What was the ritual? It's like a family reunion, they would get together and perform rites of passage, they would draw power from one another. Supposedly they were stronger together in packs, the Alpha, the Beta, and the Omega, the lowest of the wolves. They've all each contributed to the strength of the pack. They each... Damn it! You okay? My housekeeper doesn't want me to smoke, so she's hiding my cigarettes. You're a doctor and you smoke cigarettes? You know, I think your five minutes is about up. Okay, I know, just one more question, please. Is there a cure? For what? You said there's differences between werewolves who are bit. Can he or her, or whoever it may be, can they be cured? Yes. Cut them in half. Death cures all ailments. Look, I'm sorry. I researched this for 15 years, I've never heard of a cure. Really, why are you so interested in this? It's just a myth, it's a legend. Are you sure about that? I am beyond sure. I have the certainty of someone who has completely and totally destroyed his personal and his professional reputation for some idiotic obsession. Do you have any idea what it's like to know that you have ruined your life? It's one thing to blame others, but it's another when you did it to yourself. God, I could use a cigarette. Your five minutes are up. You still believe it though, don't you? Sometimes. But then I snap back to reality. Maybe there are some people who miraculously heal themselves, have heightened senses, perfect sight or sense of smell. But werewolves... It's not possible. Thank you for your five minutes. And your housekeeper's right, you really should quit smoking. But if you really need one, they're in the bookshelf, third shelf behind the books.
