I got nothing against the candy, but that stuff's crap.
The real secret is the cheese.
Go out and get yourself a good piece of parmesan.
You don't wannaskimp on the cheese. No American crap.
You sure we're going the right way?
I'm sure I'm sure.
Never let them grate it. Grate it yourself. Fresh on the pasta.
That 's the secret. Believe me. Gotta do right by the cheese.
If not, forget it. Go get a hamburger.
The parmesan makes the world of difference.
Your guest is gonna be blown away.
Look, I know it 's a lot. But believe me, it 's worth it.
I'm getting a little hungry myself.
Fuck me.
-That 's not even on the map. -The map sucks.
Drawn up by retards in 1919.
-I'm calling in. -No wait. Let 's try it.
-Its not even on the map. -You're such awuss.
Bingo. See, I told you. Here's the main.
Let 's follow it and get the hell out of here.
-It 's not on the map. -Forget the map.
If that 's main three, the valve station must be past this door.
Why'd they block it off?
Let 's go out and we'll find another way.
-We can bust it down. -Are you nuts?
What 's the worst that could happen?
Knock yourself out, big boy. I'll find another way.
Thanks a lot, pal.
That 's the money.
Your mother's ass.
What the...
Kevin, let 's go. I found it.
Where the fuck are you?
Watch your head.
You guys have a court order?
You can't drop her in here. We're a private institution.
It 's all in order.
Lenny?
Get down here, please.
-Okay. -Let 's go.
Samantha, right?
Samantha Klein?
I'm fine now... really.
Welcome to Brookdale.
I'm Matilda, the head nurse, and this is Lenny.
We're going to take good care of you.
After you.
Ernst? Buzz barfed in the art room again.
I'll clean it up.
Hey, Alvin!
We got a new one.
Ain't she pretty?
Come on.
This way.
Cameron's feature's a little shaky, don't you think?
-How's your story going? -Working on it.
The Administrators at Brookdale are all tight lipped.
I hope I don't have to remind you...
-You're walking on thin ice. -The challenge of writing...
about the privatization of a mental health hospital...
...well, it 's private. -This Modern Care Corp...
it 's messy.
I can't believe they're in the drug rehab business.
The police found the utility workers' truck.
-Still no sign of the workers. -Get me the copy by nine.
We're not gonna have this one forever. Can you get on it?
Relax.
I'm Dr. William Winslow...
and I'll oversee your care while you're here.
Please let me go. I can't be here.
You're under court order, so that will be impossible.
This place has a great deal of help to offer...
if you are willing to be helped.
-I don't need help. -You...
You drank a bottle of tequila...
you tried to commit suicide in a dance club bathroom...
It wasn't serious.
To me, that 's someone who is screaming out for help.
Lenny, she'll be in 2O1B with Rose.
Samantha...
shall we take that walk on the way to recovery?
We work on a point system. The more points you have...
the greater your privileges. We run a tight ship...
...but we're not unreasonable. -I don't want to be here.
Give me your coat.
Your coat.
I know this is hard, but we're going to help you.
Have aseat.
We're going to give you a mild sedative to calm you down.
Why? I'm calm now.
It would be much easier if you cooperate, you do need rest.
Not a needle. Please. Could you give me a pill?
I'm really scared of needles, please don't.
This may sound ridiculous right now but...
Look upon your time here as a luxury. After all...
how often do we have nothing to worry about?
No jobs, no bills.
Nothing to worry about but working on ourselves.
Come on.
You'll be all right.
You'll see.
Just lie back and rest.
They're watching us.
Tell Ernst that there's a mess in my office to be cleaned up.
They sure doped your ass up.
-I'm Samantha. -I don't give a fuck.
-This is my room, okay? -You must be Rose.
See this mark?
From here to the door is an invisible line.
Come on my side and I kick your ass.
You look like the type who puts her nose where she shouldn't.
What was it?
Coke? Booze?
Did you try to kill yourself?
Fuck you.
Where are you going? I'm not done yet.
Stay on your side of the line.
We didn't get a chance to meet earlier. Samantha.
Can I bum one of those?
She's suicidal. And she doesn't talk.
She talked to me earlier.
-I doubt it. -No really, she...
Come over and sit by me sugar.
What 's your name? I'm Naomi.
-Samantha. I just got here. -I can tell.
What happened to your arm?
I gave myself a little rush.
Give me that and get out. You don't have smoking privs.
No smoking until you earn some points.
Go to the lounge.
How many have you smoked today?
Not nearly enough.
Goodnight, Samantha.
Hey, new girl. We need a third for hearts.
I don't know how to play.
It 's easy. You can't throw hearts early. Don't throw them early.
Are you that guy on TV?
I can't shuffle an incomplete deck, l...
There're two cards missing, Johnny.
I don't have them, Morgan.
You took my cards.
-No, I didn't. -You took my cards.
I can't shuffle an incomplete deck. I want my cards back.
Stop it, you're scaring her.
What did I tell you?
Sit down in the chair.
Calm down.
Are we gonna be all right here...
or do we have to go back to your room?
-Thanks -No problem.
He's just a little OCD, that 's all.
-I'm Johnny. -Samantha.
Is everybody here always this crazy?
-First time in rehab? -I don't know what to expect.
The place is a little run down. I'm sure you figured that out.
A little welcoming present for you.
The staff are okay and the patients are mostly like me.
Guests of the state.
-I'm court order too. -You're in good company.
Is everybody here court ordered?
Sometimes you get a rich kid who's parents have had it.
-And they send them here? -Security's tight.
For many this is the last stop. Myself included.
People, let 's get ready for bed.
Good night, Sam.
Another present for you.
This is my stuff.
What the hell is your problem?
Get ready for bed! It 's almost lights out.
The lights are out. Something happened.
Ernst will look at it, get ready for bed.
I saw a rat in my room, and it hissed at me.
-Okay, where'd you get it? -What?
-Where'd you get the drugs? -I took no drugs. I saw a rat.
Get ready for bed.
I'm taking away two points.
Now I have to worry about things crawling on me at night!
-What? -I saw a rat on my dresser.
What did I tell you? Get to bed.
Everybody, lights out! Let 's go!
You're in my way.
Do you hear that?
Something in the walls. Do you hear it?
What 's you're problem? It 's mice or something.
Right. Mice or something.
Shit. Fuck.
Get off me!
How did she get out?
I don't know. I checked the exits...
and everything's locked down. She vanished.
She won't last aweek without supervision.
The family will find her in the gutter...
or discover her in the night stealing the silver.
From now on, we'll have to check the beds every hour on the hour.
We don't have the man power.
MCP will have to approve the overtime.
-Don't hold your breath. -They'll have to...
or they'll lose funding.
We should be the last stop, the place they can't run from.
-She figured it out somehow. -Right.
And I'm asking you to fix it.
We'll fix it.
-It won't happen again. -Good.
If anybody asks, Naomi was transferred.
Addicts are a flight risk, let 's not encourage them.
Grouptherapywillbe delayed andwillnowbeginat four.
When we left yesterday...
Johnny was talking about his self-sabotage.
I've been thinking about why the studios didn't hire me.
It 's because I keep sabotaging myself.
Whenever my life is good...
I feel I have to fuck it up.
I recreate the cast from my childhood...
and repeat the behavior pattern of my dad's alcoholic rages...
and my mom's drug abuse. I end up back here every time!
The session must end early. I have an unexpected meeting.
Why don't we end it with aserenity prayer?
God, grant me the serenity...
to accept the things I cannot change...
and courage to change the things that I can...
and the wisdom to know the difference.
What do you think of Dr. Winslow?
He loves when you get emotional and talk about childhood.
To have it easy, throw him the odd bone...
and he'll be a happy man.
You don't think he's a good doctor?
He does the best he can with a hard job.
That 's a canned answer.
I'll spice it up. Is it for the 6 or the 1O o'clock news?
What do you mean?
If it weren't for the doctor, I'd be in big trouble, so...
Are you gonna play cards with me or not?
-You wannajoin us? -Maybe later.
Visitinghours willbe over in 15minutes.
-Hit it, would you? -You got it.
I like the blond. You should keep it, Jennifer.
-It 's Samantha, remember? -Right.
Got enough for a Pulitzer or just the Enquirer?
-Cut it out. -I'm serious.
-Jack wants an explosive story. -Tell Jack to wait.
These things take time. Did you get the camera?
What else you got?
A patient, Naomi, ran away. The staff's covering it up.
Not exactly the earth-shattering scandal we're looking for.
They said she was transferred.
I bet they didn't call the police or file a missing persons.
I'll check on that.
But if that 's it, Jack will be pissed we wasted money on this.
What else you got?
The Modern care provider isn't very modern.
I saw a rat in my room.
That 's something we can use. That 's what, a code violation?
It hissed at me.
I agree, that 's not good. It could be rabid.
-Stop it. -Do you share a room...
...with a killer or nutcase? -That 's really sensitive.
That 's me.
Many rich addicts whose parents didn't want them around anymore.
-There are also movie stars. -Who?
Johnny Falls.
He's not a movie star, he's a guy who jumps of buildings...
and says things like "whoa".
-He's very articulate. -Put that away.
Try a bit harder to blow your cover.
We can always go to the Enquirer.
You're gonna get caught. I knew it was a bad idea.
-I'll be fine. -Be careful.
-I always am. -I'll see you tomorrow.
Oh, man.
-I need a break! -I hear you.
Did I say I found a cigarette butt in the stairwell?
I think Naomi smoked one before she ran.
-I hope she's okay. -You kidding?
After a nuclear war, only Naomi and cockroaches would survive.
-I know you're in there. -Duty calls.
-Deal with it before I do. -Calm down. Let 's go.
What?
Gross.
I gotta talk to you.
-You've gotta deal with this. -Put it down. Don't touch it.
Do you know how many germs that has?
-You've got rats. -Where did you find it?
I've been trying to tell you about this for so long.
The rat I saw in my room? I think it was rabid.
-You gonna do something? -You never brought this before.
I'll call the exterminators.
I won't have things like this on my ward.
-Meds, Samantha. -You get pills.
Stop bouncing that. I can't concentrate.
-I don't need these again. -Are we gonna have a problem?
You're still on watch, right?
Suicides get pills.
Sedatives? I'd be happy to take them off your hands.
It 's not fair. Suicide is aself indulgent act.
Then you get here and get pills and they coddle you...
This is nobody's business but Samantha's.
Open your mouth.
Stick out your tongue.
Swallow them.
I can't. I throw up on pills.
Pills or a needle, your choice.
-Good girl. -Baby takes her meds.
Get ready for bed. It 's almost time for lights out.
Get them out!
Help me. Get them out!
Wake up.
It 's okay.
-There's blood. Somebody's hurt. -No, it was just a nightmare.
-Someone was cleaning it up. -You've been sleepwalking.
Let Matilda take a look at you.
I'm telling you, there's blood.
Let 's check your dosage.
Let 's have her check your dosage.
Everything will be okay.
Blood everywhere...
There was no blood. You had a bad dream.
I'll talk to the doctor about changing your meds.
Will you shut up?
-It 's not the meds. I saw it. -I got beds to check.
Want me to stay here until you fall asleep?
I think maybe.
-Prods. -Check.
-Bug bombs. -Check.
You guys from Rodent Master?
-Looks like you got a problem. -I think so.
You have to deal with this straight away.
One pair of rats can have 6OO babies per year.
That 's not our problem. We've only seen one.
Take these gentlemen to the basement.
Okay. All right.
You made a big scene last night.
I had the craziest nightmare.
Next time give me your pills. Nightmares make me feel alive.
It has nothing to do with you. It 's not your fault.
I was just teasing him.
What 's going on?
Do I look like an information center?
It was just a fucking question!
Morgan got transferred out and Johnny thinks it 's his fault.
Morgan's gone?
That 's what I said.
It makes no sense. Transferred in the middle of the night?
How should I know?
I knew this guy who had a rat problem...
so he decided to get two cats.
The next morning...
all he found were the cats heads in the center of the kitchen.
They would never hurt me.
Rats are smart...
...but they're no match for us. -We're packing!
We got every high-tech gismo to stop the little buggers.
Would you care to join us?
I can't.
I've got things to do.
Jesus.
Look at you jonesing for chocolate!
A stay here might do you good.
Fuck you.
My fucking trap.
Mother fucking thing broke my goddamn fucking fingers.
It wouldn't be the first time.
Listen!
Come on!
Quick, get him!
Fry that little fucker!
Good job, man.
Keep your eyes open.
It can't be...
...they're huge! -It must be some kind of joke.
They're goddamn rat turds.
That looks like a human tooth...
My God.
This could be interesting.
What 's this?
Videos I found of recorded sessions.
Wait! You stole something from a confidential file?
Not stole. Borrowed. Humor me and watch them.
The weird thing is I found it in the patient files...
but it 's one of the staff members, the janitor.
You can't keep taking unnecessary risks.
Look at the tapes and bring them back tomorrow. Trust me.
Borrowing this is the last of my worries.
What do you mean?
They give these pills...
and I had a crazy nightmare. I think I passed out.
Maybe we should get you out of here.
I can handle it, it 's just part of the job.
I don't know.
We make a great team...
and I'm not gonna jeopardize that, okay?
Do me a favor.
Be careful. I don't wanna end up flying solo.
Oh, my God!
Turn it off!
Help me!
Let me out of here!
Watch it!
Nut case.
Probably some industrial "help you clean" video.
We administertwo sets ofinjections.
The first ones were uneventful.
Afterthe secondset...
Dr. Winslowobservedanti-social behaviorinrats282to 289.

What'shappening?
What are youexperiencing?
They're talkingto me.
Idon't like what they're tellingme.
What,Ernst?
Lookat the camera.
They're saying you want to hurt them.
Patient believeshe can communicate withrats...
asaresult ofbeingbitten byarat.
Is it the washroom?
My God! Are those rats?
What happened? I think I've seen the same thing.
You saw this, didn't you? I can protect you.
I need help down here!
If you're gonna disrupt class, go to your room! Go!
I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry.
-What 's happened here? -Samanthasaid something to her.
Cypress.
Hold her, please.
Put her in a quiet room.
You're acting like you're tweaking.
There was something really weird on that tape.
The janitor...
used to be a patient here ayear ago...
and he got released on awork program in hospital.
He believes he can talk to rats telepathically.
Telepathic communication with rats?
I can hear his insanity defense. Another patient ran last night.
I know he's involved.
Look.
The nightmare I had last night was real.
A guy was cleaning blood of the floor. This is what I saw.
This is the your proof? This is a painting.
It 's what I saw.
Let 's finish the story outside. It 's getting weird here.
Please.
Please, Jennifer.
-Get me out of here today. -I'm on it.
In the meantime...
Iay low.
I said we'd get in trouble.
This is really not...
What?
Please, no.
It 's not that hard to get out.
But I don't think out there is so good.
Neither is in here.
She's in there on a court order from the state.
As the paper's attorney, I advised against this.
You've already said "I told you so".
-But will you help us? -Not before I say this.
-They may be charged for this. -That 's not important.
-Can you get her out? -Tonight? No way.
Where are you?
There must be away out of here.
Time for bed check.
And no cigarette breaks.
Okay, mum.
There's gotta be an exit.
I didn't say anything. I told no one about you.
Nobody knows about you.
What?
Can I help you? Are you lost?
Come back.
-I need to see Samantha Klein. -Visiting hours are over.
I understand, but it 's urgent.
Stop talking. We're in trouble now.
Shut up!
You have two choices: Leave on your own...
...or with asecurity officer. -Thanks for nothing.
Come with me. You're trespassing.
I'm Doctor Winslow. What can I do for you?
It 's about Samantha Klein.
I see.
Her name's Jennifer Lawrence. She's a reporter...
and so am l.
I see.
She's here undercover...
to write about the privatization of the hospital by Modern Care.
I welcome any investigation. I have nothing to hide.
-I run a tight ship. -I'm sure you do.
Jennifer said the same. But she's got to go home.
There's a family emergency.
I quite understand.
-It 's urgent. -We'll release her right now.
-I'll get her paper work. -Thank you.
-What was her name again? -Jennif...
you know her as Samantha.
Here's some dirt on Modern Care Provider.
There's no love lost between us and MCP.
This is a medical...
Your research skills sorely lack.
-Two more ran. -What are you talking about?
-Samantha and Rose disappeared. -Are you sure?
Samantha?
Come out, wherever you are.
-I know what you're doing. -It wasn't me.
What 's going on?
She started hitting me.
No, I didn't. He attacked me.
Where are you hurt?
-Listen to me! -Sit down!
-Listen to me. -Get Dr. Winslow.
The patients are disappearing. Naomi and Morgan.
He is behind it. He thinks he can talk to rats.
He's insane.
He's crazy.
Anything here but bullshit?
Double bullshit.
Samantha, is that you?
Wait, no!
-You have to lock up the cleans. -I didn't do anything.
See what happens when they act?
Let me go. I don't belong here.
She really tried to hurt me.
-Come on. -Let me go.
-Back to bed! The show is over. -Let me go.
-Let 's go, people. -Open up, Karl.
My name's Jennifer Lawrence. I'm a reporter.
I will pay you money.
And I'll be on easy street. Stand up!
Morgan and Naomi didn't run away.
Someone killed them.
Please don't leave me.
When you calm down, you can come back up.
Don't leave me here alone.
Please, don't leave me here alone.
Matilda!
What 's going on?
-Samantha attacked Ernst? -She's babbling...
about Ernst killing people. She and Rose tried to run.
I'll check on Samantha. Tell Ernst I want to see him.
Get me out of here!
Cypress, is that you?
My God!
Christ!
We need to get those exterminators back.
Why?
What?
Get out of my way.
Get the fuck away from me.
Get me out of here.
What the hell...
Take this thing off me.
Are you all right?
Cypress is in the next one. We have to get her.
My God, she's dead.
Jesus!
Let us out of here!
Come on. Let 's get the fuck out of here.
-What 's going on? -Not my fault.
The sewer workers broke in where they shouldn't and let them out.
-I tried to stop them. -Stop who, Ernst?
We can do it together, but not like this. Untie me.
-What are you doing? -I'm sorry.
This is their favorite thing.
You're on dangerous ground.
You're playing a game that can only hurt you.
-Untie me at this instant. -I can't do that!
I can sense you're confused and afraid.
Yes, you are, but I can help you. I really can.
You know I've always taken care of you.
Now I have to take care of them.
I know...
you told me to destroy them after the research...
but I couldn't. This is their home too. They have rights.
Now they need to prepare.
Are you talking about the rats again?
I thought that was over.
The voices in your head aren't real.
They have nothing to do with reality.
To be healthy you must listen to me.
Stop it!
I listen to them and they're right.
You're patients are better off this way.
My patients?
-What have you done? -You couldn't help them.
Listen.
As your doctor, I can protect you from the police.
There's no problem we can't solve.
-But you have to untie me. -You don't understand!
Killing them is killing myself.
Remember rat 282?
You should, you named her.
She remembers you.
My God.
She reaches into their minds. And I can see into hers.
She fed off my thoughts. They nourished her.
-My God. -Made her grow.
Help!
No one can hear you scream. Like no one heard them...
...when you experimented on them. -Help!
Its time for some one on one therapy, Doctor Winslow.
Help!
I think I know away out.
This must be the old lab.
Check this out.
Good.
My God! It 's Dr. Winslow.
What is that?
-Run! -Let 's go.
-What the fuck was that? -Some kind of mutant rat.
Tell me I'm on acid because I don't know what we just saw.
Rose?
What are you doing down here?
No fucking way! This is not good for my sobriety.
This is insane!
Morgan.
Okay, it 's me.
It 's so horrible.
I know.
-What happened to you? -I was drugged and thrown here.
Ernst. He attacked me too.
He's breeding a new kind of rat that 's killing everybody.
We gotta go.
That huge rat is coming after us. You can feel him.
-Come on. -Let 's go.
Are you all right?
-Listen. You hear that? -What?
-They're here. -What?
The rats. All around.
-Come on. -Can't you hear them?
I'm bleeding.
Come on.
It bit me. I'm okay.
I'll catch up.
They're here.
Let 's go!
There's nowhere to go.
You've been bit. You're one of us now.
In your dreams, buddy.
Come on.
It was all for you.
Go.
Matilda!
-How did you get out? -We have to evacuate right now!
-Who are you? -Do it now, please.
-What bullshit is this? -Call the cops right now.
What are you talking about?
Matilda, what is she doing out of her cell?
-Lenny, just shut off the box. -You're the boss.
Get out of here. Go.
-You've gotta call the police. -Listen, please.
-Security... -Get out of the cage.
Get out of the cage.
Help me. Please.
Help me. My God!
Mother fucker!
Get out now!
Get out. Go.
Hurry! Go.
Go back to your rooms.
-Open up the gate! -What 's going on?
Unlock the gate. We need the keys.
My God!
Open the gate.
Open the fucking door.
Help me with this.
Go!
Ready, here we go. All right.
You're gonna be okay.
-All this for an award. -I'm glad it 's over.
Can you tell us what happened?
You can read about it in the paper tomorrow.
Come here.
