[Man] I'll get
it Mrs. Tredoni.
Hi Tom, how are you?
It's so good to see you.
Mommy said you
wanted to see me.
Oh, did she now?
And now, why would
I wanna see ya?
You know.
And did you make
a good confession?
Oh yes Father.
Do you have a present for me?
Of course I do,
in the dinning room.
(rattling)
Did you find it?
Where?
Here, here, some
of Mrs. Tredoni's
delicious cookies.
Sit down.
Are you sure
this is my present?
Alice, why don't you sit down?
No thanks Father Tom.
I have to go to the bathroom.
It's alright sweet heart, go
ahead, you know where it is.
(eerie music)
Oh!
You nasty child,
out of my kitchen.
(clack)
Take that thing of your face.
Who said you could
go wandering around?
I thought you had to
go to the bathroom?
I'm sorry Mrs. Tredoni.
You probably frightened
her half to death.
Now go inside and sit down
and try to act like a lady.
Tom, I'm sorry.
It's alright, I'm sure
she didn't mean any harm.
Karen, open your present,
we all wanna see what it is.
(inhales)
[Mom] Oh, it's beautiful.
Belonged to my mother.
Oh Tom, you shouldn't have.
What if she loses it?
Who else would
I give it to Cait?
I love you Father
Tom, I really love you.
I know you'll take
good care of it.
Just lovely.

[Girl] Mommy, mommy.
Alice?
Alice?
(clacking)
Mommy, mommy, mommy.
What is it?
What did she do to you now?
(sobbing)
Are you alright?
She took it, she's
going to break it.
I had it all to myself
and she took it.
What did she take?
She took my doll,
the doll daddy sent me.
She's going to break
it, I know she is.
No she won't, I promise
you she won't break it.
Honey, I have to get to
Cela's before they close.
You want me to get
your dress don't you?
Yes.
Okay.

Mommy says you're to come

Give me my doll back.
Where are you?
Why are you running
away from me?
(suspenseful music)
(screaming)
[Alice] Didn't I tell
you never to follow me?
Where's my doll?
(bang)
No, no, let me
out. Let me out.
Let me out, let me out.
(bangs)
If you tell mommy about this
you're never gonna see that
doll again now go home.
(eerie piano music)
(footsteps tapping)
[Mom] Where's your sister?
Oh she's coming mom, my dress.
Where have you
been going Alice?
Don't think you can
keep things from me.
You're not gonna
get away with this.
Why should you care
where I do? I'm not Karen.
I want the table
set immediately.
I don't like this
new habit of yours
disappearing when you're
told to do something.
You're old enough
to know better.
Sometimes I think you don't
care about anybody but yourself.
She's ruining my veil,
make her take it off.
Take your sister's veil off.
Make her take it off mommy.
Alice.
Take your old
veil, I don't want
that stupid thing anyway.
Alice, what's wrong
with you sister, sister?
I don't understand you.
It's ruined.
It's ruined.
It's ruined.
Alright.
See, nothing happened to it.
(coughing)
Oh, you look beautiful, go look.
You're gonna be the
prettiest girl there.
Wait 'til Father Tom sees you.

Annie, it is not necessary,
I was just out there
and she's not there.
Well, where can she be?
I don't know.

Father wouldn't give me the...
Let's find Karen.
[Father] Sister.
(crowd screaming)
(bang)
Let me go to her.
No, no.
Let me go, get out of the way.
Where did you get that veil?
I found it on the floor
when I came in.
Is that Karen's veil?
Where is she?
I was gonna give it to her.
Come on.
Catherine.
No, I don't want to.
What's the matter
with you? Come on.
Catherine,
Catherine, Catherine.
Let go of me.
She's dead.

[Police Radio] 10-4.
Affirm.
The fat one didn't show up.
Did you find out
where the girl was?
The mother says she
was helping the nuns.
[Passenger Man] Did
you talk to any of them?
[Driver Man] No, not yet.
(breaks squeaking)
Who's that?
The father.
Well, at least he
managed to get here
before they put
her in the ground.
Annie please, not now.
(bang)
(crying)
I'm so glad you came.
(police radio in background)
[Driver Man] What
are they, separated?
[Passenger Man]
He's remarried.

Hi Ali.
Alice, sit on the fold-up,
make room for your father.
I want to stay where I am.
Please do what you're told.
Annie please, there
is plenty of room.
No problem, I can
sit on the fold-up.
Never mind, I'll
sit in the second car.
There's room up here Annie.
Move over.
What?
(bangs)
I said move over.
(car engine revving)
I want you to find out
exactly where that girl was.
And I'd like to talk to
that Alphonso character
before they get
back from the grave.
Let's go.
(car engine revving)
[Man] It's such a
tragedy, we're not even safe
in a church anymore.
That darling little Alice,
she's taking this so well.
Your husband and
I were just saying
what a great help she's
been to her mother.
Hey, will you make
sure you tell Catherine
that she must call me at
once if she needs anything.
Thank you, there's
nothing anyone can do.
I'll be staying
here with my sister
for as long as she needs me.
(squeaking)
Angela, stop eating,
haven't you had enough?
Jim, help me clean up this mess.
You don't need that drink.
I've made arrangements
to stay in town
for the next few day, I'll
be here if you need me.
Don't you have to go home?
You don't have to stay,
I'll be here for a while.
Annie you're only
10 minutes away
and Jim and the
children need you.
Catherine please, Jim
wants me to be here.
My Angela can take care
of everything at home.
Isn't that right Jim?
Beg your pardon?
Angela can take of
everything at home?
Of course dear, yes.
Okay then, I know this is a
bad time to bring it up but,
there's some things
we have to talk about.
It's no ordinary situation.
I know.
I just don't know
where to start.
Is it necessary to
have this conversation
in front of the children?
God damn it Annie,
the child was m*rder*d.
Or don't you understand
what that means?
Ask the kids to leave, there's
some things I'd like to know.
Listen, there's an
awful lot of cake left.
It's a shame to
let it go to waste.
Alice, would you bring
this down to Mr. Alphonso?
And thank him for
the lovely flowers.
Angela, Robert, go with her.
Don't disappear,
keep the noise down.
(footsteps tapping)
(bangs)
(cat meowing)
I heard everyone
leave, it's all over huh?
Well, you die and they put you
in the ground and it's over.
Such a shame, such
a pretty girl too.
Too bad she was the one
to end up in the box.
(squeak)
My mother thought you
could use some cake fatty.
Thank your mother for
me, such a lovely lady.
God always takes
the pretty ones.
(bang)
Wow, is he fat?
[Robert] He scares me.
Really? That ugly
b*stard doesn't scare me.
Come on Alice,
let's get out of here
before my mother hears you.
(eerie music)
[Angela] Robert
don't follow us.
We taught you, we
don't want you with us.
(bang)
[Dad] What the hell's
the matter with you people?
[Annie] You have no idea
what I'm talking about.
[Dad] What's
she trying to say?
[Jim] Alice was the
last one in that church.
[Dad] So what's
that supposed to mean?
[Annie] What do you think
it's supposed to mean?
[Catherine] Stop it, I
won't listen to this again.
(bang)
You saw the photographers
at the church.
The police do investigate
a m*rder you know.
I still don't understand
what that has to do with Alice.
Everyone knew she was
the last one in the church.
They wanna talk to her,
they think she may
have seen someone.
What if the police find
out about the veil?
What veil?
Jim, what's she talking about?
She had Karen's
veil in her pocket.
For Christ sake, she
probably found it on the floor.
I'm sure you didn't even
ask her where she got it.
Annie, why'd you
have to start this?
I think you've gone too far.
Shut up, I know
what I'm doing.
(eerie music)
(rattling)
(thunder roaring)
(violin music)
I have an appointment
with Detective Brennan.
Take the elevator
to the third floor.
Make a left, his
name's on the door.
(thunder roaring)
(soft music)
(bang)
(banging)
(bang)
It's open, come in.
Sit down.
(tapping)
(phone ringing)
Sorry about your daughter,
I guess you got a
lot of questions.
Yeah, you're right,
I was hoping you could
tell me something.
As a matter of fact,
my partner's down
in your neighborhood now
checking on a few things.
Is anything being done
to protect Catherine
and my daughter?
What makes you think
you need protection?
I don't know, I couldn't
imagine anyone k*lling Karen.
People do crazy things.
Mr. Spages, you mind
if I talk to Alice?
Where's that gonna get ya?
Alice was the last one
to go into the church.
She might have seen something,
something she
knows nothing about
but might set us in
the right direction.
For example, the veil, exactly
where'd she find that veil?
(click)
Ray.
Listen, about the veil,
it's obvious to me that Alice
came in after the m*rder.
I spoke with her, she said
she found it on the floor
when she came in.
Karen must have dropped
it during the struggle.
Mr. Spages, how did Alice
know it was Karen's veil?
They're all alike, they all
come from the same store.
Alice never said
it was Karen's veil.
Everyone just assumed it
was, and the name is Spages.
According to you sister-in-law
Alice said it was Karen's veil.
She's always
jumping to conclusion
especially where
Alice is concerned.
Well, your wife didn't
disagree with her.
Well my wife's been under
a little strain lately.
Does you sister-in-law
dislike your daughter?
It's probably more accurate
to say she doesn't like me.
Come on, you really think
she dislikes you enough
to implicate your
daughter in a m*rder?
(thunder roaring)
I don't like where
this is leading.
You can just forget
about talking to Alice.
(squeaking)
I spoke to the principal,
she's made a repeated request
that the kid see a psychiatrist
and for some reason the
requests have been ignored.
Here, there's the
record, see for yourself.
(thunder roaring)
This kid is nuts.
(thunder roaring
and rain pouring)
(phone ringing)
St Michael's residence.
[Dad] Father Tom please.
I'm sorry, he's
having lunch right now.
[Dad] Well, he's expecting
my call it's very important.
I'm sorry, but
Father don't like to be
disturbed at meal time.
Tell him it's Dominick Spages.
Fine, if you leave your
number I have him call you back.
Look, damn it.
Hey, don't raise
your voice to me.
I don't care who it is, I'm
just following the rules.
(rattling)
Look, it's very important
I speak to Father Tom.
[Mrs. Tredoni]
Well, if I gave in
every time someone told me that
he'd never eat a meal
without interruption.
That's okay Mrs. Tredoni.
Hmm.
Sorry Tom, I told her to put
you through when you called
but I guess she forgot.
Where are you?
I'm at the police station.
[Father] Did they mention
anything about the school?
No, what about the school?
Well, they came and
took Alice's records away.
I couldn't stop 'em.
You know, I don't
believe those b*stards.
You know what
they're trying to do?
Now, take it
easy, I know Brennan
he's not that kind of guy.
Yeah well, now he
wants to talk to Alice.
I wanna talk to you
alone for a few minutes.
I've got some things to tell
ya and I haven't had a chance.
(rain pouring and
thunder roaring)
I'll be going out for a
couple of hours Mrs. Tredoni.
[Mrs. Tredoni] Are you
coming home for supper Father?
(bang)
I knew that was going to happen
and that is precisely
why I don't like
interrupt him at meal time.
A-huh, there is a good
reason for everyone.
(soft music)
(Karen Voiceover singing
drown out by music)
[Annie] Alice,
put that knife down.
That's too heavy, be careful.
(bang)
What did I tell you?
Don't hit me, don't
hit me, don't hit me,
I didn't mean it.
I'm not going to hit you.
Stay still, when
have I ever hit you?
What you need is
a few good smacks.
You liar, you were too.
(cracking)
[Catherine] Alice, don't move,
you're walking on the glass.
Don't move.
[Annie] She called me a
liar, now I am gonna hit her.
Annie, get the dustpan.
You see, she was gonna
hit me, it was an accident.
Stay still before
you cut yourself.
Look at this mess, I
just finished cleaning.
I told her to be careful,
she never listens to me.
It was an accident
Annie, she didn't mean it.
Tell your aunt you
didn't mean it.
It's always an accident.
She hates me, I
didn't do it on purpose.
I told her it was too heavy
and she goes right ahead
and does it anyway.
This is why she should
be back in school.
I'm not going back to school.
I'm never going back,
I wanna stay with you.
You belong in school.
Your mother doesn't
need you here, I'm here.
Yes too, she does too.
I'm never going
back, I won't go.
Annie why must you
keep insisting on
this school business?
With all the
trouble she's been in
she can't afford to
miss a single day.
What trouble? I
spoke with Father Tom
and we agree that
Monday is soon enough.
Not Monday mommy please.
Have it your way Catherine
but the child belongs in school.
This is my house, you
won't be here forever.
I can't wait 'til you're gone.
I forbid you to talk
to your aunt that way.
She makes me so nervous,
I do everything wrong
when she's around.
But you don't mean
what you're saying.
Aunt Annie loves you,
she only does things
for your own good.
If you'd listened to her you
wouldn't have dropped the milk.
Why is she always right?
Catherine.
[Alice] You know
what, take her side.
That's enough.
Aunt Annie is very
generous to stay with us
and I don't wanna hear anymore
about not going to school.
I know that you
miss Karen, so do I,
but we both have to get
back to our usual lives.
Don't you need me here?
Of course I need you
and you can help me.
But you can't stay
out of school.
Would you take the rent check
down to Mr. Alphonso for me?
Don't take too long love,
your daddy'll be here soon.
Move over.
Alice.
Thank you.
(kiss smack)
[Annie] Did you
find the cross?
[Catherine] No, I'm sure
it was lost at the church.
[Annie] Well Alice
doesn't have it,
I've been through her things.
[Catherine] Annie,
why did you do that?
I told you I would ask her.
Why don't you trust her?
[Annie] I know how important
that cross is to you Cai.
I think Alice knows where it is.
(opera music)
I know you're there
Alice, you can come in.
(squeaking)
I won't bit you.
(laughing)
How did you know it was me?
(squeaking)
(bang)
I have the rent check.
I was gonna slide
it under the door.
Where do you want me to put it?
There's so much junk
around this filthy place.
I bet you never clean it.
It smells like cat piss.
My aunt says you should be
reported to the Board of Health.
What's the matter fatty?
Stuck in a chair?
You don't like
your aunt do you?
I don't like you.
You know why
you don't like us?
Your aunt and I are two
very perceptive people
we know what you
did at the church.
(laughing)
I can't wait to tell your
father all I know about you.
What the hell do you know?
Come on, the check.
(opera screaming)
Damn it, look what you've
done to this check.
Let me go.
(laughing)
Where are you goin?
You're not in a rush are you?
I know what you have downstairs.
Have you been snooping
through my things?
Your things? They're
not your things.
(laughing)
Karen will come for them.
The dead have ways.
The dead don't rest easy.
(laughing)
You better let me out.
(bang)
I'll scream.
I'll scream and my
mother'll call the police.
(laughing)
The police were
already here today
and if they come back
I'll take them downstairs.
Get away, go, you weirdo.
I'm k*lling your cat.
No.
You pressed up
against me once before
you disgusting slob,
you'll never do that again.
(bang)
[Mr. Alphonso] No,
don't k*ll my cat.
Don't k*ll my diamond.
Ah, stop it, I can
reason with you.
If things were
so bad at school,
Catherine should have
been the first to know.
I don't understand why
you let it go on so long.
It wasn't that
serious until recently.
Anyway, they weren't really sure
exactly what should
be blamed on Alice.
She has knack of making
things look like accidents.
Thought I could
handle it myself,
I used to talk a lot with her
but lately she set up a barrier.

No!
Alice.
Alice, stop.
- What's going on, Alice?
- Annie?
[Mr. Alphonso] It's Alice!
It's Alice, it's Alice!
[Catherine]
Annie, Annie, Annie!

Someone, help me please!
Help me!
Help me please!
Someone help me!
(tires screeching)
Dom!
Dom!
Christ, what happened?
Lots of bleeding,
someone attacked her
Lets get her to the hospital
in the hall.
Get her to the hospital.
(screaming)
Alright, okay, I got you.
Did somebody call the police?
I don't know.
Jim.
Jim.
Jim.
[Father Tom] Tell the police
I'm taking her to St
Michael's Hospital.
Dom, find Alice,
make sure you find her.

You can have it.
Oh daddy, daddy help me.
It's alright baby it's okay.
It's okay.
I saw Karen.
I will, shh.
I saw Karen.
Daddy, I never meant
for her to die.
I know you didn't.
[Alice] I know
it was Karen daddy,
I think she wants her doll.

[Intercom Voiceover] Dr.
Sarno, 383, Dr. Sarno, 383.
Mmh.
Okay.
Bye.
(clack)
Is she alright?
Yes.
She's just so frightened.
Oh Tom, what am I gonna do?
Everything's happening so fast.
Dom said whoever did it
frightened her half to death.
[Father Tom] Where was she?
She was in the basement.
Who's doing this to me?
Haven't I had enough?
Alphonso told the
police it was Alice.
They're on their way here.
Did he her?
Of course not, how could he?
He's only repeating what
he heard Annie scream.
Don't you see, people believe
what they want to believe.
Well, what's important
is what the police
will think about this.
Well they don't know her.
No one knows her like I do.
What if Annie tells
them what she told me?
Well we'll just have to
wait and see what happens.
What are you saying?
She was hysterical, she
didn't even know me.
Annie would never say
something like that
if she were herself.
Catherine, there's
Detective Spina.
Tom, talk to 'em.
Let me go to Annie, just give
me a minute please, please.
Catherine.
(footsteps stomping)
Annie.
Annie.
Annie, I wanna talk to you.
I wanna talk to you Annie.
I know you won't do this to me.
You didn't realize
what you were saying.
How could you,
you were so upset.
Don't turn away like that.
What is the matter with you?
You've gonna crazy, am
I some kind of stranger?
Please Annie, please.
I will never forgive you
if you do this to me.
Never, never.
Excuse me Father.
Get through here.
Hi Mrs. DeLorenze.
I won't keep you long.
You know I have to talk to you.
I want you to tell me
everything that happened.
Where's Jim? I want Jimmy.
Leave her alone,
I'm her sister.
I was there and I can tell
you anything you wanna know.
I'm sure you can Mrs. Spages
and I'm very
interested in hearing
everything you have to say.
But right now I wanna be alone
with your sister for a while.
Uh, Father, you think
you and Mrs. Spages
could leave the
room for a minute.
I'll be right with you.
Annie.
[Annie] Oh Jimmy.
Jimmy.
Annie, Annie.
What happened?
(crying)
Jim, oh Jimmy.
(crying)
Honey, I was so worried.
Somebody called and said
somebody tried to k*ll you.
Oh my God Jimmy it was awful.
She stabbed and stabbed my legs.
Who Annie? Who?
Annie, don't.
She tried to k*ll me.
Oh my God, I don't believe it.
I don't believe it.
Annie, shut up.
Cait, for Christ
sake, let her talk.
Alright, what's going on here?
She's like my own,
I love her Catherine.
You hate her!
Because you knew I was
pregnant when I got married.
That's not true.
I love Alice, may God
strike me dead if I'm lying.
Annie don't, you realize
what you're saying?
It was Alice, it was Alice.
Liar!
Liar!
You're all liars!
I'm not lying, I'm not lying.
I wanna believe it was her.
Why not Angela? She
wasn't in the church?
See, you see.
Don't you see what
they're trying to do?
This is Detective Mike Spina,
I wanna be connected with the
Paterson Police Department.
(crying)
(piano music)
Now, remember Alice, I want
you to say no to every card.
I want you to lie.
Is it the six?
No.
[Interviewer] The four?
[Alice] No.
It was the six wasn't it?
Yes.
Yes, now we know it's working.
Now let's get to these
questions shall we, yes.
Now, do you intend to answer
truthful to every question?
(rattling)
Please answer yes or no.
Yes.
Do you know for sure
who stabbed your aunt?
No.
(rattling and clicking)
[Interviewer] Did
you stab your aunt?
No.
During your entire life, did
you deliberately hurt someone
who trusted you?
During your entire life, did
you deliberately hurt someone
who trusted you?
I put Debbie's coat in the
toilet if that's what you mean.
But I didn't lie, I told
the sister I did it.
Now, please Alice,
answer yes or no.
Yes.
In the suitcase
found in the basement
were a white dress and
a mask, are they yours?
Yes.
Are you deliberately
withholding any information
regarding the
attack on your aunt?
No.
(rattling)
Do you know who
stabbed your aunt?
No.
(rattling)
Do you know who
stabbed your aunt?
Yes, it was Karen, it
told them it was Karen
but no one believes me.
It was Karen.
Alright Alice, thank you.
They're finished.
The matron will take
you back to my office
and I'll give you the
test results there.
[Catherine] What about Alice?
I'll bring her back with me.
Will you give me Alice's coat.
[Dominick] What do
you need that for?
You'll get it back.
Thank you.
(clacking and bang)
(thunder roaring)
(bang)
(exhales)
Well?
I don't know what to tell ya.
Well for Christ sake,
did she fail or didn't she?
Technically, I
guess she failed.
What do you meant technically?
Well, I asked her if she
knew who stabbed her aunt,
she lied, she said no.
So I asked her again, she
said it was her sister.
But her sister's dead.
Yeah, but she wasn't lying.
So what do you want from me?
It's obvious the
kid is off the wall.
I wanna book her,
if not for the m*rder,
for the stabbing of her aunt.
We'll let the psychiatrist
give us some answers.
She is a weird little girl.
Did you notice her t*ts?
When I went to put
the tub around her
she looked up at me like she
wanted me to feel her up.
(scratching)
Hey, the little b*tch
is bumping your machine.
Hey, hey, hey, hey stop that.
(banging)
Damn you, stop that.
(bang)
(bell ringing)
In the name of the Father,
the son and the
Holy Ghost, amen.
Bless us our Lord
for these, our gifts,
which we are about to
receive from thy bounty,
through Christ our Lord, amen.
In the name of the Father and
the sun and the Holy Ghost.
Amen.
Why couldn't I stay upstairs?
You know I'm not feeling well.
Because I can't be
running up and down.
And tell the
children to stay out.
What children?
You know there's no
children in the house.
You want me to feed you, or
you can manage by yourself?
I am not dead yet.
Then eat.
Where's my wine?
I have only two
hands Monsignor.
Father's not coming to lunch?
You sure you don't wanna
come to the shelter with us?
No, I don't think
that'd be a good idea.
She only needs the
two of you now.
Well, come inside, I'll get
you the information you want.
(bangs)
Oh, that must be Tom now.
And everything is ice cold.
Cold?
No, tell him not to
worry, she's a good woman.
What are you talking about?
You don't make sense.
(bang)
You didn't eat your lunch.
I want my cake, now.
I'll help you.
Now, this is only the
order sheet for the coats.
I'll call them on the superior
and tell her you're on your way.
She has the complete list of
all the names and addresses
of those who purchased one.
Angela has one, doesn't she?
Why Angela, what
are you groping for?
Well, Alice said she saw
Karen in one of those coats.
It's obvious she saw
someone, maybe it was Angela.
You realize you're
doing to Angela
what you think Annie
is doing to Alice.
Well if it wasn't her,
whoever it was might
be on this list.
(bang)
If this lead doesn't work out
how long will you stay
around and play detective?
I don't know Tom, I have to
stay until a k*ller is found.
And what about Julia?
I can't answer that right now.
And thanks for the car, I'll
drop it off tomorrow alright.
(eerie music)
Subject, Alice Spages,
12 years one month.
Normal physical development.
(banging)
Subject represses
hostilities toward her mother
and estranged father.
(bang)
(knocking bangs)
What do you want?
Strong indications of
a schizoid personality.
Subject's capable of
extremely violent action.
(knocking banging)
Come in.
[Nurse] Dr. Whitman, Mr.
And Mrs. Spages are here.
Yes.
Sit down.
I had a session with Alice
this morning and I thought
perhaps I should talk to
you before you see her.
Is anything wrong?
Well, it's far too soon
to be making judgements.
As understaffed as we are here
we try to give the
children as much time
as they would have
in private practice.
I've diagnosed hundreds of
cases exactly like Alice but
to eliminate any
possibility of error
one tires to suspend judgement
until one can observe as
much as you possibly can.
Dr. Whitman I
think you should know
that my attorney is doing
every he possibly can
to get Alice back
home with her mother.
That's exactly what I
want to warn you against.
I don't think you should
encourage Alice to believe
that she'd be coming home soon.
Perhaps being at home with her
mother is not the best thing.
What does that mean?
Be prepared for
hostility from Alice.
I mean, it's certainly natural
that she would think
that you were responsible
for her predicament.
You might say, that
like all of us,
she blames others
for her troubles.
She is here because of
a lot of other people.
Alice has many
deep seeded problems.
But she is not a m*rder*r.
Alice needs
psychological help.
Well in that case, I assume
you'd have no objection
to our using our
own psychiatrist.
Not at all.
Would you take the Spages
down to the playground please.
[Nurse] Yes.
Let me remind you to be candid
about the issue of coming home.
Be assured she will get the
best possible treatment here.
Oh, Mrs. Spages, why did
Alice conceal from you
the fact that she's
begun menstruating?
The parents so often
don't know their children
as well as they presume.
(bang)
(eerie music)
[Dominick] Ali,
how you doing honey?
[Alice] Fine.
[Catherine] Did
you sleep alright?
How's your room?
(bang)
Why'd you bring the suitcase,
aren't you taking me home?
Not until the doctor
says you're ready.
We met Dr. Whitman.
What did you think of her?
She said you had a nice talk.
What'd you talk about?
A lot of things.
Like what Ali?
I told her aunt Annie
lies and that you let her.
That's not true.
You're just like aunt
Annie and that slob Alphonso.
You wanna keep me here.
Alice, now you're
hurting your mother,
I don't want you
to talk like that.
Now listen, I don't
want you to worry.
I'm going to find out the truth.
How can you? You have
to go home to your wife.
Honey, I promise,
I intend to stay
until I find out who was
in the hall with your aunt.
Come on.
I don't wanna stay here.
Why can't I go home?
[Dominick] You
heard the judge,
you have to stay until the
medical tests are completed.
Medical tests?
She's a psychiatrists.
Everyone thinks I'm crazy
cause I said it was Karen
and you don't believe me either.
Can you understand
that there are
two different reasons
why you're here?
One is because you
were in the basement
when your aunt was attacked.
But I didn't do it.
I know you didn't do it and
I'm gonna find out who did.
I saw Karen.
Look, many times we
think we see things
and later we realize
we were wrong.
But sometimes it's
important to find out why.
Dr. Whitman wants you to sign
a release form for medication.
What does she need that for?
[Dominick] Stay here,
I'll see what it's about.
(footsteps clacking)
Would you like to
show me your room
and I can help you
put your things away?
I don't want to.
(zipper squeaks)
I packed your heavy
robe just in ca...
I don't need it.
(eerie music)
I didn't put you here Alice.
What's wrong with you?
Why won't you talk to
me, I'm your mother.
I have nothing to talk about.
Well you had plenty
to say to Dr. Whitman.
Why didn't you tell me
you had your period.
Why doesn't everybody
just leave me alone?
Leave you alone?
Don't you know that I love you.
You're on my mind every minute.
Take this, you
know it's not mine.
I thought maybe you
might want it now.
Well I don't, I don't
play with dolls anymore.
I'm sorry.
I guess I just keep
forgetting how old you are.
I'll be back tomorrow.
Is there anything
you want from home?
No, just leave me alone.
Don't take this
out on me Alice.
I am trying.
(eerie music)
[Alice] Mommy no, don't go.
Please don't leave
me here, I'm sorry.
(crying)
(eerie music)
And why can't you
see that it makes
just as much sense that
Angela could be guilty?
[Catherine] Dom, you're wrong.
You're looking for
something that isn't there.
[Dominick] Her name
is on the coat list.
(clack)
Look how small
Karen's coat is.
It's a size seven, Angela's
would be at least a 14.
How could Alice confuse
the two of them?
It was dark, she was so scared
she didn't even recognize me.
Dom, I don't know.
What do you mean
you don't know?
You said yourself no one
knew where Angela was.
(phone ringing)
Hello?
(heavy breathing)
Hello?
(dead phone line beeping)
(clack)
I think it was Annie.
What does she expect me to do?
Forgive her and pretend
nothing has happened?
I think you
should talk to her.
Oh I will, when she
admits that she lied.
But why antagonize her,
it can only hurt Alice.
(phone ringing)
I can't.
Please answer.
(clack)
I can't, I just
can't deal with it.
Hello Ann?
(dead phone line beeping)
She hung up.
(clack)
Sorry.
I shouldn't have asked you to.
We can do it without her.
I'll make everything alright.
Can you?
Can you?
(crying)
(piano music)
(phone ringing)
Hello?
[Woman Voiceover] Hello
Catherine, it's Julia.
Oh.
[Julia Voiceover] I hope
I'm not disturbing you.
I've been trying to
find Dom, is he there?
Yes he's here.
It's your wife.
Julia, what's wrong?
[Julia Voiceover] I thought
you were going to call.
Is everything alright?
How can it be?
[Julia Voiceover]
Why you so annoyed?
I'm sorry honey, I
didn't mean to snap.
What's the matter?
[Julia Voiceover] Nothing,
it's just that I'm
kind of lonely.
Look, I can't talk right now.
I'll call you there
tonight alright.
[Julia Voiceover] Are
you sure nothing is wrong?
I miss you, can't wait
'til you get back.
Do you love me?
Do you love me?
Yes, I love you.
I'll call you there tonight.
Bye.
(click)
Alice was right, don't
play detective, go home.
Dom.
I wanted it as much as you did.
It was nice to be held.
You know you're even
more beautiful now.
That's nice.
We're both so dumb.
I guess you're right.
(kiss smack)
(clack)
Dom, don't you think
you should go back?
It's not fair.
I can't.
(eerie music)
(bang)
(eerie music)
Oh, oh Mr. Spages, I was
just ringing your room.
You've got a call.
Why don't you take it from here?
[Dominick] Thanks.
You bet.
Hello?
[Girl Voiceover] Uncle Tom?
Who is this?
[Girl Voiceover] Angela.
Angela, what's wrong?
[Angela Voiceover] I
ran away, I'm hiding.
I got Karen's...
Honey, I can't hear you,
you're gonna have
to speak louder.
[Angela's Voiceover]
I've got Karen's cross
and mommy won't let
me give it to you.
Listen, let me
meet you somewhere
and we can talk about it, okay?
[Angela Voiceover]
Will you tell?
(crying)
Now you know better than that.
Has uncle Dom ever done
anything to hurt you?
[Angela Voiceover] No.
Look, I'm leaving
right now, where are you?
[Angela Voiceover] I'm at,
I'm in the Ivan home building.
(crying)
Alright, I'll be
there in 15 minutes.
(crying)
Angela now, stop crying honey,
there's nothing to be afraid of.
Thank you.
(clack)
(suspenseful music)
(bang)

God wants you vanished.
(screaming)
Me-ah protection against
the sneers of the devil.

Father belongs to the church.

That's mine, mine.

Mine.

(click and inhales)
[Woman] Alright,
let's settle down now.
Don't keep Father waiting.
In the pews.
[Father] Hello boys and girl.
[Children] Hello Father.
Today is your last
confession as a group
so I want you to
think very carefully
what you're going to say.
But remember, you
don't have to tell me
everything you've done
since last Sunday.
After all we don't want
sister to miss her lunch.
(laughing)
And please remember
Karen in your prayers.
(eerie music)
(thud)
[Father] Is someone in here?
Bless me Father
for I have sinned.
[Father] We're only hearing
the children this morning.
Bless me Father
for I have sinned.
Please Father I need confession.
Father, please.
Please hear me
Father, I'm troubled.
[Father] I have time.
I lost my temper, I got
angry with the Monsignor
and I neglected my
morning prayers.
[Father] Oh, this
can't be the reason
you wanted confession
this morning.
Oh no Father,
there is something.
[Father] Yes?
I know you, you're a good woman.
It can't be as bad as you think.
(exhales)
I lose patience
with the Monsignor.
Sometimes I wish Father,
oh I can remember
when everyone
respected him so much.
[Father] I understand,
it's not easy
to see someone we love suffer.
No, you don't understand.
Sometimes I think that it
would even be better if God,
oh, it is a sin to
think such thoughts?
[Father] No, it's not a sin.
You've devoted so
much of yourself to us
it's only natural that
you should want God
to spare us from pain.
Yes, Father.
[Father] You have great faith.
Now it's because of this
that you can look forward
to death as a resolution.
Yes, Father.
[Father] Now, there's
no greater reward
than to spend eternity
with our Lord.
Yes, Father.
I only wish you'd come
to me sooner about this.
Oh, so do I Father.
[Father] There's no need to
come to confession for this.
Oh.
[Father] When you're
upset come see me.
I am your confessor but
I'm also your friend.
Oh, thank you Father.
(eerie music)
(squeaking and thud)
(calm music)
(banging)
(banging)
I'm sorry to bother
you Mrs. Tredoni.
Father's not here.
No, I'm looking
for Mr. Spages.
I knew he had to
drop Tom's car off.
I didn't see him.
I'm very sorry, I'm cooking
supper you'll have to excuse...
No, but Dom was supposed
to pick me up this morning
and I haven't heard from him.
I thought maybe he was with Tom.
Well, could I wait
for a little while.
Suit yourself.
(clack)
Maybe he won't be back so soon.
Do you think
maybe there could be
something wrong with the phone?
I tried to call several
times this morning,
there was no answer.
I was out.
You can turn on the light
and there are some magazines.
Thank you.
(shallow breathing)
(eerie music)
I made you some coffee.
Oh thank you.
It's in the kitchen.
(eerie music)
Sit down.
This is really
very nice of you.
I didn't mean to put
you to any trouble.
It's no trouble.
(eerie music)
(clacks)
Aren't you going to have any?
I make it a rule not to
have a coffee after breakfast.
(clack)
[Catherine] I know
this is silly of me,
I really should go home.
I don't know why I'm so worry.
I just can't imagine
where he could be.
Maybe you were afraid that
God will send St. Michael
to take another of
your loved ones.
When St Michael
took my little girl
I only thought of
how cruel God was.
Mrs. Tredoni I'm sorry.
I never knew you
had a little girl.
God took her from me the
day of her first communion.
Don't you see?
He waited until then to
teach me that children pay
for the sins of their parents.
And then I was sent here
to look after Father,
not you.
[Father] Mrs. Tredoni?
It's Tom.
Tom.
Tom.
[Father] Catherine,
what are you doing here?
I've been looking for
you all afternoon.
[Catherine] Where's Dom?
[Father] There's
been an accident.
Dom?
(Bang)
[Catherine] Oh God, no.
(screaming)
(eerie music)
The left humerus is fractured,
the left clavicle is fractured,
contusions and
abrasions of the thorax.
Have you heard
from his wife yet?
No, not yet.
[Detective Brennan]
He give any indication
that he knew
something, anything?
Last time I saw
him I got him a list
of the families that
bought school coats.
He was convinced that Alice
had confused Karen
with somebody else.
Because of Annie's attitude
he suspected his niece Angela.
We never did find
out where that kid was
at the time of the m*rder.
(phone ringing)
Brennan, yeah?
You won't believe
this, I found
a cross lodged in his throat.
It had to have been
worn by the k*ller.
It wasn't forced down his throat
he bit down on it, there
are teeth marks all over it.
[Detective Brennan] See if
it matches the description
of the one belonging
to Karen Spages.
(clack)
(calm music)
(thunder roaring)
(calm music)
[Father] The train's gonna
be at least a half hour late.
What'll I do about Alice?
Let's go get her, there's
no need to stay here.
(calm music and rain splashing)
I'm not gonna
tell her just yet.
She's been without a
father for a long time.
I'm afraid to take him
away from her so soon.
[Father] You're wrong, I
think you should tell her.
I've lost control
of my life Tom.
I can't.
[Father] Death
does this to people.
Well haven't I had
more than my share?
There's no such thing
as share Catherine.
(thunder roaring)
(footsteps tapping)
I'm frightened.
Maybe I should leave her
here at least she's safe.
Don't be ridiculous
Cai, she needs you now.
Police will watch you both, you,
I promise you have
nothing to fear.
For how long?
What happens if they
don't find the m*rder*r?
Alice is waiting.
(footsteps clacking)
(kiss smack)
Where's daddy?
He had to go back.
[Alice] How come?
Let's go home.
We'll talk about it later.
He didn't even say goodbye.
Please don't feel that way.
He kept his promise to you.
It's because of him
you're coming home.

She's inside, Father
Pat's watching her.
Let's go.
Wait a minute, she's too
close to Catherine and Alice.
She sees her there's no
telling what she'll do.
Now, it's almost
time for communion.
Come with me into the sacristy
when she comes up to receive
I know I can get her to
come with Father Pat and me.
What if she doesn't come up?
Look, I know her, she'll come.
She hasn't missed.
I want to have a
marksman in the balcony.
Not in my church,
I can handle her.
She wouldn't do anything to me.
Okay Father we'll
play it your way
but my men will be
covering all the exits.
Nothing'll
happen, she'll come.
[Detective Spina]
Let's go Father.

Faster.
(speaking in foreign language)
[Father] Please come
with me Mrs. Tredoni.
I want communion Father.
I'm sorry Mrs. Tredoni,
I can't give it to you now.
I promised the police
you'd come with
Father Pat and me.
But you give it to that wh*re!
