Patient 001 (2018)
2
I gotta tell you it's a great night to celebrate. There out in droves dancing and waving, it's absolute pandemonium. I'm in Times Square where the couple... Should old Acquaintance be Forgot Once every thousand years. And all Get close to someone you love. Ten. Nine. - Eight. - Eight. - Seven. - Seven. - Six. - Six. - Five. - Five - Four. - Four. - Three. - Three. - Two. - Two. One. Happy new year! Happy new year. Happy 2000, what a night and what a great place to celebrate the new millennium. I am one lucky guy and this is indeed a beautiful sight. Oh how I love the new year. Wake up Leo. Wake up. You just have to see. Have my stuff here alright. What is this? Whoa! Happy new year. Is she having sex with him? I wasn't sure what to do. It's gotta be a first, even for this place. That's my patient and his wife, Christ. I guess we could say the erectile dysfunction medication is ready for phase two testing. Is that okay for him? It can't hurt him. Might even revitalize him. Oh no, not him, no, no, no, he's a goner. Category one, he's not coming back. You sound so certain. I am. Look see, he's holding steady. Not a change. I don't know if I can say the same thing for myself however. Oh god shut up. Okay okay, you guys enough. Turn it off will you. Turn it off. Mrs. Kingman, please come join me. Where's Randall? He's on his break. You play? No. No. What happened to the guy in 203? He passed. Yeah and in that room, the boyfriend drank a fifth of whiskey, vomited all over the room. I'm glad I wasn't on that shift. What's the fertility doctor doing in there? Well her stunt last month didn't get her pregnant. So the fertility doctor came in and extracted a sample of her husbands junk. It isn't looking good. It's just that after the accident, well, he's just showing poor morphology and no motility at all. I'm sorry I don't have better news. It's okay. Thank you. Here you go. And the cafeteria's open 24 hours a day in case you should find you need anything. This looks good. He can be a potential candidate. Hello. Hi, this is Dr. Jameson. Yes. The fertility doctor gave me your name. Sorry? The fertility doctor? Yeah. I was just calling to check in. Thank you, thank you for your concern. Are you still trying to get pregnant? He's infertile. They say his sperm doesn't work. It's impossible. Well that's not exactly true. See that's why I'm calling. I've been working on something very cutting edge. And I think it might help you. But not on the phone, I'd like to meet. But first I need your assurance that you can keep this between us. Yeah yeah of course, yeah. I'm in 11 wing room 402. Okay. Bye. I apologize for all the secrecy. But there are people who are scared of this. What they don't understand, they wanna criminalize. I don't want to disappoint you but everyone said that Leo can never make a baby. People say a lot of things. This is the future Josie. We don't need Leo's sperm to get you pregnant. When a loved one dies unexpectedly, that loss is devastating. But that loss doesn't have to be permanent. First, a sample of the loved ones DNA is collected. Then a woman's egg is stripped of all it's genetic material. The DNA and the egg are fused together and form into an embryo. That embryo is placed into a womb and begins to develop and grow. Nine months later a child is born. This reproductive process is called cloning. However, because of the way genes are influenced during the process of reproduction by environment, nutrition, and a variety of other external factors, the clone will not look exactly like the loved one. More like a cousin, a brother, or a son. So theoretically, no one will ever know. In a moments time tragedy can be erased and life as we know it can be re-imagined. There are also some risks. There's a chance that the procedure won't work at all. There's also the possibility that the baby may not be as healthy as a baby conceived naturally. What do you mean by that? Well none of your genes will be in this baby Josie. This will only be Leo, all Leo. That's cloning. This has never been done. But I think this procedure can work. There's my man, look at him. What's for dinner? Raw meat. And chocolate. And chocolate. I love you Josie. Josie, Josie, you smell so good. I wish we could stay like this forever. I love you Josie. Yo, check it out, check it out, check it out! Come here! Da da da da da da. - Da da da da da da. - Boobies! Da da da da da da. Wait what?! Come on! Nice. Think fast! I love you. You ready? Yes. I'm a little nervous, but I followed all your instructions and I made sure no one saw me. Can you see anything? Listen. I think you're gonna be the mother of a very special baby boy. Hey darling, we've got news. Look, he's in here. Ooh. Hello there. He's moving. Is everything okay? Is he normal? Of course, they're just running some routine tests. Can I see him? Soon, you need sleep now. But is he okay? Of course, you've got a gorgeous eight pound two ounce baby boy. Leo weighed eight pounds two ounces when he was born. Should I be worried? No, no absolutely not. You sleep now. Can I see him? Shh. You've got a beautiful baby. Yeah. You're a very special boy. And one day you're gonna grow up and this is who you came from. This is who you are. Shh. Shh. Let's get some air, come on. We don't need you anymore. Give me your strength. Give me your soul. This is Dr. Brock from the Horus Institute. You need to get over here. There's been a change in Leo's condition. You just need to see for yourself. Please, please, get over here as soon as you can. Hey, that was something about that Kingman patient coming out of his coma huh? Yeah, something. Looked like you and the widow were getting pretty chummy. You know, even when they're fine you gotta know when to draw the line. You think this is a god damn joke? You misdiagnosed the case. You said he was irreversible, you said he wasn't coming back. Your expert opinion was bullshit. Huh? This is fantastic. Awe man, I never thought he was gonna make it. Hi. Hi. We don't have much time before the girls get back with the baby. The nurses told me how you climbed on top of me and got pregnant. Shh, no, no. They said some people last but that it was really beautiful. They said I must of done something right. You did bear. I'd of done anything to keep you alive. Show me. What? How you did it. My god. Please. Please. The snow is snowing Wind is blowing But I can weather the storm What do I care How much it may storm You look radiant. You're a dad now. Hello. Hello. Hey! How was he? An angel. Awe he's so sweet. Here's your daddy. I've got my love to keep What happened? Is he okay? Take the baby. Shh, shh, shh. Okay okay. Shh. Leave me alone! Leave me alone! It's the middle of the night. Come to bed. I'll be up in a little bit. Is this tie okay or is the striped one better for a stuffy firm? The one you're wearing is fine. Wish me luck. Oh. Good luck. Kill me? Entry 17 for patient 001. Josie Kingman called me to express concern over incidents she claimed to have witnessed. She asked if it was safe for them to co-exist together. She asked, "Can they have the same soul?" Or share some vital part of themselves that makes them who they are. She said that when they were together, Leo had these recurring nightmares. Visions. It's inexplicable really. Leo, Leo! What's going on?! You're fine, you're okay! Leo! I feel like I'm going insane. You're not going insane. You're not going insane. Here. You need to sleep. Okay. Just sleep. Hello. It's me. There's something... Josie, Josie... There's something really strange happening here. I don't understand. Now calm down, tell me, what's going on? I'm scared. I'm sure we can figure something out. No you need to see. You need to see for yourself. You need to come here and see. Thursday he's got an interview. 11 okay? Okay. I look exhausted, like a zombie. I'm gonna freak these guys out. You'll be fine. Yeah, I'll be fine. I'll be fine. Jesus. If I look as terrible as your face says, that means I shouldn't go. No I'm just, I'm tired. It's the baby and everything. Look I'm sorry. I'm sorry I can't help out more. I just... No, shh. Here. Leo. Hi. Josie. Hello. Josie. Josie, the baby's fine. Listen, Leo has suffered a highly traumatic experience. You'll never know how that'll effect someone. They have the exact same birthmark. Many parents are affected by sleep deprivation Josie. It can do things to the imagination. No you wouldn't of picked Leo if you knew he was coming back would you? No I wouldn't. Oh my god, you used me for your experiment! You put us in a dangerous situation! No, no, you wanted a baby. It was the only way to make that happen! You took advantage of me! I had just lost my husband! I was out of my mind! You shouldn't of done this! What if it's true? What if they share a soul... We have no factual evidence to conclude anything. It's like they're allergic to each other. We can run some tests. He's not like you, he's a clone! There's a difference. Clones. It may be a while before this is normal. No, they have violent reactions to one another. We can run some tests to prove that he's a normal, healthy baby. Just like you and me. He's not like you and me, he's a clone! Normal babies don't cry when their daddies come near them do they?! But Leo's not his daddy is he, 'cause clones don't have daddies. No, a normal natural baby, it's half mommy and half daddy. It doesn't matter how he was conceived. Leo! Get out! I'm Dr. Jameson. Your baby's okay, he's not to be feared! Just get out darling, go! - Please. - Go! Get out! Is that thing me! Tell me god damn it! I can't live like this anymore. I'm so sorry. He's gonna grow up and then what?! I see things that you can't see. Things you can't understand. I don't know what I see is true. I'm so sorry. The visions are getting worse. Now please, please. Shh, shh. How are we gonna fix this? - What choices do we have? - I don't understand. I don't know. I don't know. You know what we have to do now. Don't you? Don't you? Yes. Oh god! Oh god! Swaddling him in your clothing. I'll take him to Wickstrom Woods. Where's Leo? Where's the baby? Did he take him? Where did he take the baby?! Where did he take him?! Where did they go Josie?! Please! He was fine before Leo came back. You loved him, you nursed him. He slept in your bed. It's not his fault. I'll take him away Josie, far away. Please. Don't do something you'll regret the rest of your life. Wickstrom Wood. Wickstrom where he took him to. Wickstrom wood. Thank you, thank you. Hello! Hello? Hello! Hello! Hello! I got there too late.

I've just got him to sleep. Oh my god, he's gotten bigger. I brought something for you. A little rattle. It was mine as a baby. You're a natural at this. Dad? That's my boy, here you go. Dad. Dad. How's my perfect little boy? My woofy. My little woofy. Woof woof. That's me? Rock-a-bye, baby Now that's my boy. The cradle will rock When the bough breaks God damn it! And down will go woofy Cradle and all Cradle and all Cradle and all I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I should never have gotten so upset. No, I'm so sorry, I made a terrible mistake. I don't know what's going on. I just. I don't know. I don't know anything anymore. Dad! Dad! Dad! I think I found my first test subject, his name is Leo Kingman. He's a patient in an irreversible coma. He's expected to die. And his wife Josie Kingman understands the complexities of the experiment and is willing to make an attempt. She knows that cloning is her only opportunity. Experiment has gone terribly wrong. Both baby and his donor cannot coexist. They seem to have violent reactions in each others presence. The family thought they had no option - but to kill the baby. - I don't have a father. They left him Wickstrom Woods where I found and rescued him. There is nothing in his external appearance that betrays the fact that he was conceived as a clone. Same goes for his physiology. Hey It is you Oh yeah Eddie. What are you doing here? Do I taste like Leo? What? Am I like him? What do you mean? Do I feel like him? I need to know. What are you talking about? Do I look like him? Oh yeah First I'm gonna jump on you Do I smell like him? What are you doing? Do I?! Stop it. Stop it. Do I fuck like him? - Huh? - I don't know what you want. And I'm sorry if I hurt you. I'm sorry. Did you make me to take his place?! Please, please, you've got to go. Go, please! Don't you recognize me?! Don't you know who I am?! I don't know but you have to leave! Did you tell him about me? No! About us, how you made love to me. How you couldn't help yourself? Stop it! Huh? Until your precious Leo died huh?! Stop it! Go please! No. No. No. What is that? What is it? No! No! What? It's the doctor. Dr. Jameson, how does he know Jameson? How does he know Jameson?! I don't know. I don't know. I don't understand. I don't understand. I did it. He's in the woods. He's, I did. But I thought that you... I left him in the woods. He's gotta be there. - Is this the place? - I think it is. Is it the right place? I think it is. I don't know. Is it or isn't it? I don't know. Josie. Is he like me? Does he smell like me? Does he taste like me? Does he? Leo! I'm here! I'm here! Leo! Leo! Don't be afraid. No! No, no! No, no! No wait. No Josie, wait. No! Wait, wait, wait! Wait! No, no! Josie wait! No! Josie. Wait, wait, wait, wait! Where are you going? - Don't hurt me! - No, no, no, no please no! Wait, I need you please. I love you! Josie wait! Please don't leave me! Don't leave me! I love you! I'm sorry Eddie. Please don't leave! Wait! No! Josie! I love you! You're lucky. You have a beautiful son. I've never been myself before Da da da da da da da And I'll never be yourself again Da da da da da da da I'll never breathing to hear Your voice I'm never breathing For you But I just might But I just might I've never been myself before Da da da da da da da And I'll never be yourself again Da da da da da da da I never Heard your voice I never again But I just might But I just might It might it might It might break me It might break me It might it might It might break me It might break me And I would never waste my time I said I'd never live your life But I just might But I just might But I just might But I just might But I just might It might it might It might break me It might break me It might it might It might break me And I would never waste my time I said I'd never live your life But I just might But I just might But I just might But I just might But I just might But I just might But I just might But I just might Da da da da da da da Da da da da da da da Da da da da da da da And it might break me It might break me |
