previously on the dead zone...
I just had a visionthat you're gonna die.
I need to tell sarah that I saw Walt's death.
I couldn't do anything.
Can you explain how... you, with all your visions,
never saw this coming.
No one will tell mewhat happened.
I need your husband'scomputer.
There are a lot of photosthat are very important to me on here, sheriff.
What are you doingwith the bannerman's laptop?
I'm looking atsheriff bannerman's computer, and I came acrossan unusual bank account.
I couldn't save walt'S.
I had a visionhe was gonna die that day.
How do you live with that?
I don't know. I'm still trying to figure it out.
- These the onesyou looking for? - Yeah.
- Wow. - "Wow, good, "
or, "wow, that'snot appropriate to wear to your daughter's baptism"?
No, that's appropriate.
Just, wow, no one's gonnabelieve you just had a baby lookin' that good, mama.
- Can you zip me up? - Yeah.
We got booties.
We got a bonnet.
What else do we need?
Oh... the christening gown.
Worn for three generations.
Even J.J.Wore it.
Probably shouldn'ttell him that.
So everything's set.
And we're readyfor the party afterward.
It's gonna be great.
Well, let me let youget undressed. Uh, I mean... I mean, go to sleep.
It is a big day tomorrow, right.
Oh, that reminds me, um... I got you this.
They were my father'S.
Sarah?
It's for tomorrow.
I'm really gladyou're gonna be there.
I am too.
They're gorgeous.
Well, uh... I'll find a shirtto wear these with.
Okay, then.
- Good night. - Good night.
Doesn't J.J.Look handsomein his blazer, johnny?
- Mom. - Hey. Ladies likea well-dressed man.
I don't see any ladiesaround here.
Thanks a lot.
Sarah. Good to see you.
Nice day. At least, it is now.
And this is our latestparish member, huh?
Father brendan, this is johnny.
Oh, we've met before.
- Hey, father. - Oh, I didn't know that.
Yes, I've alwaysadmired the work reverend purdy and your familyhave done together.
So is father tony around?
I'm afraidhe's not well today.
I'll be performingthe baptism, if that's okay.
Oh, that's great.
No, we just were looking forward to see him.
Father tonyis J.J.'S catechism teacher.
I'll tell him he was missed.
J.J., I'm going to bea bit shorthanded.
Would you like to help me up there?
Sure, yeah. I can do that.
Perfect.
Well, shall we?
****************
As I anoint hope, may god blessand protect her. J.J...
I baptize you in the name...
Apage satanas ante mortem. Deus miserateur.
It burns!
It's burning!
I renounce satan.
In the name of the father and the son and the holy spirit.
Burns!It burns!
No, father, no!It burns!No!
And the father and the son and the holy spirit.
Amen.
That's a good girl.
This is just how waltwould have wanted it.
I'm glad you're happy.
You really dolook beautiful today.
Thanks for helpingwith all of this.
That what I'm here for.
Sarah, can I hold the baby?
Of course.
I'll be back.
- Father brendan. - Johnny!
Beautiful home.
Oh. Listen... I know this is gonnato sound strange.
But I saw something thatI need to talk to you about.
Saw?As in one of your famous visions?
I had a vision that youwere standing over someone.
Trying to cast out the devil.
With holy water.
Does that make sense to you?
I'm flattered to bein one of your visions, johnny.
But I haven't done anything like that, no.
Does the church believein possession and exorcism?
The vatican acknowledges evilin the world, sure, but, uh,
what you're describingis not normal church practice.
We prefer to focus on hope. And faith.
So it's a matterof balance?
Well, take your gift.
You can use your visionsas you have in the past to help others.
Or you could exploit them to serve a sinful path.
My ability is not a spiritualphenomenon, though, father.
I believe that it's based in science.
My brain suffered a trauma, and now it has that ability.
I'd beg to differ.
I just wish I couldexplain the vision.
People claim to have seenall sorts of things at religious ceremonies.
Yeah, it's A... little more than that.
Excuse me, father.
Hey, welcome.
Um, I heard aboutthe baptism.
Thought I'd come overfor something other than business.
Well, thank you.
Come on in. Have some punch.
I'm on the clock tonight.
I won't tell anybody.
Maybe later.
Oh, this is for sarah.
Oh, great, well, she's inside.
She'll be happy to see you.
You're sucha good girl.
You're such a good girl.
I don't mean to intrude.
But I know we got offon the wrong foot.
And I'm sure my telling youit's nothing personal is little consolation.
I'm sure you're justdoing your job.
Thank you so much.
I wanted to tell you, I- I've almost gotten
all your personal pictures off of walt's computer.
Would you like to come by and pick them up tomorrow?
That would be great. I'll stop by.
Where is he?Where's father tony?!
Do you know that guy?
No.
slow down, brian. take it easy.
Where is he?
Father tony is ill, brian. He's not here.
I don't care. I have to find kelly!
Hey, what's going on?
Johnny, this is brian judd.
He and his wife kellyare volunteers at the church.
My wife is missing.
And she's meeting father tony to plan the spring fundraiser.
That was yesterday.
Well, how can I help you?
Where'd they go, father?
Hey, take it easy, sir.
Don't tell meto take it easy.
Hey, hey, hey!Is there a problem here?
Ask him.
Is this a guest of yours, johnny?
No. I'm looking for my wife.
All right, look. I'm sheriff turner.
Let's talk about thisat the station.
You staywith your family today.
I just feelso sorry for him.
Him who?
The man who's wifeis missing.
Susan says they ownthe pharmacy on laurel.
So sad.
Turner's all over it. I'm sure they'll find her by tonight.
Well, it was definitelymore excitement than I expected at the party.
What, the neighborwith the petition to outlaw leaf blowers wasn't exciting for you?
Although the next party we have, it's shoes off.
Look at this.
That's a job that has J.J.Bannerman written all over it.
- Johnny... - you think I'm kidding?
So many presents, so little time.
St. Michael, the archangel, be our defense against
the wickedness and snares of the devil.
Dear god.
What have you done?
Oh, that one's from father tony.
It's probablya catechism.
That's the traditional presentto give a new... uh-oh.
You just had a vision, didn't you?
I'm gonna go seefather tony.
Now?
Just leave all thistill I get back, okay?
Go ahead. I'll be here.
Johnny.
Did you... forget something?
Listen, father, I- I can't ignore what I saw.
I'm not sure I understand.
I need to see father tony.
He's not up for visitors.
I saw youthrowing away clothes.
Bloody clothes.
Now, eitheryou let me see him, or I have to come back herewith the sheriff.
Come with me.
Hello, emma.
Please try to keepan open mind about this.
He's locked in?
He asked meto lock him in.
Father tony... it's father brendan.
I'm bringing someonein with me.
What's the matterwith him?
father tony has been possessed.
Forgive me.
I'm made of flesh. Just like you.
And I've been forsaken.
Please have mercy.
Try to calm yourself.
Apage satanas ante mortem.
Is that latin?
Even the demons are subjectto us and your name!
Father.
Father tony?
Can you hear me?
My name is john smith. My son is J.J. Bannerman.
Whoever blasphemesagainst the holy spirit... shall neverbe forgiven.
What are these names?
patron saints.
Of what?
Protection.
Against satan.
Kelly!
Kelly.
Let's get thatto the neighboring precincts by tonight.
There's a guy here asking for walt bannerman.
Okay.
Can I help you, sir?
Leo vitali. I'm looking for walt.
I'm the penobscot countysheriff now.
Is there somethingI can do for you?
It's not police business. I gotta talk to Walt.
Is there a numberwhere I can reach him?
I'm sorry, mr. Vitali,
but walter bannerman diedin the line of duty several months ago.
Whoa. That puts thingsinto perspective, huh?
How so?
Uh, his being deceasedsure makes me feel terrible for coming hereto collect a debt.
Kelly.
He was calling out kelly.
Father... the man that came to my house looking for father tony.
- Brian. - His missing wife'sname is kelly.
That's right.
What was the storywith her and father tony?
They were close.
May be even in love at one point before he went into the seminary.
Well, maybe there'smore to it than that.
Father tony is a good man. And a good priest.
I know you wantto believe that.
He was my altar boy.
He's like a son to me.
Something evil has takenhold of him, I know it.
When did this start?
He came to mea few nights ago.
Distraught, not able to sleep.
He saidhe was hearing voices.
I told him to rest.
That night I awoketo his screams down the hall.
And I found him therein his bed, covered in blood.
Could it bekelly's blood?
I have no idea.
He doesn't know wherehe's been or what he's done.
- Did you call the police? - In his condition?
They'd lock him upin an institution.
If he's done somethingillegal father, the police needto know about it.
You didn't actually see father tony do anything wrong, did you?
No, not exactly.
I can't stop you fromtalking to anyone, johnny.
But a man should let his conscience be his best guide.
I'm afraid this man may have done something awful.
What in the worldis this?
father tony put these flowers here yesterday.
They were alive this morning.
Be our protectionagainst the wickedness and snares of the devil.
The devil didn't do this.
Well, how do you explain it?
I've seen enough.
What are you doing?
Sheriff, it's john.
So where did thislovely vision come from?
Flowers.
Can you be a littlemore specific?
They're readyfor you.
Okay.
It's her.
It's kelly judd.
There won't be any tracks. It's way too wet.
If we get a print off her, let me know right away.
Gonna bring the husband in.
Why are youbringing him in?
For questioning.
He's a suspect?
Don't you thinkit's a bit odd that his wife goes missing,
and instead of comingto my office he crashes your party?
He seemed really upset that his wife was missing.
Well, he can explain it all to me when I question him.
Unless there's something elseI should know?
Just coveringall the bases, sheriff.
Trust me.
The husband's alwaysthe first suspect.
Johnny. Did you hearthe news, father?
A terrible tragedy.
Kelly wasa wonderful woman.
The parish is justso shaken with this crime.
What about father tony?Does he know?
I've been with himall night.
He's been beside himself. He hasn't slept for two days.
Guilty conscience.
He's consumed by grief.
He cared for her deeply, as did I.
Well, where is he now?
I've moved himsomewhere safer.
Where, father?
I'm afraid I can'ttell you that, johnny.
father brendan?
Bless me, father, for I have sinned.
I found her.
Her body.
She's dead.
I must've killed her.
I must've killed kelly.
How could I hurt her?
I loved her so much.
How could I have killedkelly, father?
He confessed to you?
Confession is protected bythe sanctity of the church. It's a sacrament.
- But he believes he did it. - That doesn't mean he did.
Oh, come on, father!
Tell me this.
Why is your visionof his guilt more valid than my faithin his innocence?
He is not possessed.
The devil's workis to make us believe he doesn't exist, johnny.
What's more likely?
That he didsomething terrible and he's having some sortof psychotic break
because of his guilt? Or because he's possessed by the devil?
The longer that he waitsto come forward, the harder it's gonna befor anyone to help him.
Are you really willingto sacrifice his life and reputationfor your visions?
Father, you'reso worried about him.
What about kelly?
Who protected her?
Have a coffee.
No, offense, sheriff, but I got things to do besides have coffeewith you.
I need to know whereyou were saturday night.
Do I needa lawyer here?
I mean, you don't thinkI murdered my wife?
Come up with an alibiand you're free to go.
Sarah, what are you doing here?
The pictures?
Oh, right. I'm sorry.
It's just been such a hectic day.
that should beall the pictures from walt's hard drive.
Sorry it took so long to get them back to you.
I guess if it can helpclear things up about Walt, I'm happy to do it.
Which, um, which reminds me.
Did walt evermention anything about somerset county?
I don't think so.
- Have you ever been there? - No.
How about, uh... the name vitali?
Leo vitali?
I don't know him. Why?
It's probably nothing. Just doing some follow up.
Is everything okay?
Not for brian judd.
Unless he comes upwith an alibi.
I can't believeit was him.
You never know whatpeople are capable of.
The nanny left.
Hope's asleep.
What are you doingin here?
I'm just thinking.
I just got backfrom the sheriff's station. Walt's stuff.
More of that, huh?
Yeah, I guess.
Turner was pretty busy questioning brian.
She booked him?
Not yet.
But she seemedpretty confident that brian killed his wife.
Hey, you don't lookso good.
Are you gonna tell mewhat's bothering you?
Why haven't you goneto turner?
Well, father brendan's convinced that father tony is innocent.
Well, that's not upto him to decide.
Well, I want to be sure before I accuse someone that means so muchto you and J.J.
Well, appreciate that, but there may be an innocent manin jail right now.
What if father brendanwas right?
I mean, I didn't see father tony commit the crime.
You're doubtingyour abilities now?
No, I'm just thinking about what I gotta do.
Talk to turner.
Father brendan may betrying to protect father tony,
but you shouldn't have this hanging over your head, johnny.
Even if it mighthurt someone.
You need to tell the truth.
"Behold... the devil shallcast you into prison.
"Be vigilant.
"Your adversary the devilwalketh about.
Ye are of your father the devil.
" Father tony?
Father tony, I know you're there.
What are you doing here?
He wanted to come back to the place of his sins to cast out the devil.
You can't do this. I'm calling the police.
Lord, I beseech you...
didn't you hear what I said? He is not possessed.
...Affliction in the name of the father, and the son...
- it burns! - He is lying!
Look at him.
How do you explain this?
I found her wedding ringin his room.
I have him here now!
I need to do this my own way.
I can't go along with this, father. No.
Please let me finish.
Take this for your protection.
In nomine patris et filii et spiritus sanctus.
Johnny, the holy water, please.
Veni, sancte spiritus ecce crucem domini.
Fugite partes adversae!
In nomine christi, ecce crucem domini.
Now. Now, johnny.
Father, it's acid.
It's part of his plan. Either that, or we're all possessed!
This is an innocent man.
He's manipulating you.
He killed her. Don't you see that?
It was you. I knew it!
easy, brian.
You keep me here all dayand expect me to take it easy?
You son of a bitch!After all we've donefor that church!
enough!Get him out of here.
she trusted you, and you killed her!
I'm very disappointed in you, johnny.
You can't believeall this is real.
What I believe is thatfather tony's suffering is real.
all due respect, that seems pretty delusional, considering the evidence.
Some people might call it faith, actually.
Faith has let me down, father.
I can only trustwhat I see.
Hey. Hey.
That bad?
Father brendan's faithis still unshaken.
I somehowstill feel guilty about it all.
That's probably becauseof all the catholics you've been hanging around.
- You need some help? - Oh, no, I'm okay.
I already got all the mudoff the dining room floor.
I need the distraction, believe me.
This is whereI'm supposed to protest?
A little soap and water.
It's brian.
What about him?
Sheriff turnerwas right all alone.
He killed his wife.
Hey, gladyou're still open.
Oh, I was about to close. Just tying up some loose ends.
Hey, um, thanks, by the way.
If it weren't for you, I'd still be in jail.
Hey, listen, I'm sorry about your wife.
I'm sorry, man.
Brian, what'd you do, you drug him?
Then you plant the evidence?
Are you nuts?You're the onewho caught the priest.
You figured he'd come forward out of guilt over the affair, is that it?
A priestwho committed adultery?
You don't thinkhe's capable of murder too?
You drugged father tony.
I saw you put the powderin his water glass.
What are you talking about? I didn't drug anyone.
What are you doing over there?
What, are you dumping evidence?
None of your damn business. Get out of here.
Brian, you drove himto the brink of insanity with that possession stuff-
killing flowers and poisoning holy water?
Was that your idea of some sort of payback for sleeping with your wife?
He was our priest.
You killed your wife!
And you framed father tony.
- You can't prove that. - No, I can'T.
But I bet the chemicals can.
No one is gonna believe you.
Did you hear all that, sheriff?
I've heard enough.
Don't move!
The lab said you were dosed with pharmaceutical-gradehallucinogens.
Looks like they'd been in your system for days.
Which would account for your blackout, memory loss, paranoid delusions...
all to force you into confessing something you didn't do.
All to shake your faith.
It doesn't matter.
In the eyes of god, one broken commandment,
whether it's murder or adultery is as good or as bad as another.
I've disappointed so many peoplewho put their faith in me.
I was gonna leave the priesthood, let my love for kelly be known,
no matter the consequences.
But I was too late.
That's what I have to live with.
Well, good luck to you.
You'll findyour path.
I was wrongabout his guilt.
And I was wrong to assumeit was the devil's work.
there's enough evil right here on earth without all the satan talk, if you ask me.
There's still plenty of peoplewho do god's good work as well.
You know, father, after allthat happened with walt,
I just feel like I've grown pessimistic about god.
I find that ironic.
What you can see and dois the closest thing I have to hard proof
that god's handtouches all our lives.
Wish I had your faith, father.
Maybe you should tell me what's bothering you.
I just made some coffee.
I'll get you a cup.
I'm really sorry to come byhere again on business.
That's no problem. Johnny's not here yet.
Actually, I came to see you.
It's about somerset county.
Oh. Well, I already told you what I know about that.
I understand.
This may be hard to hear.
But I came across some county records, and it turns out that walt owns
a cabin on a 3-acre parcel of landin eagle cove about three hours north of here.
I've got the deed, the renovation permits.
What?
He's owned it for two years.
I can't believe this.
Do you have any idea why walt would keep something like this from you?
Well, he always told me that he wanted to build usa get away in the woods.
Maybe he was gonnasurprise me.
I really wantto believe that, sarah.
But I'm worried about wherewalt has taken the money from to pay for all of it.
I'm afraid I'm gonnahave to look into it.
I just doesn't stop.
I really don't meanto make things any worse for you right now.
It's just all thesequestions about walt.
I don't have the answers.
I know this is hard.
I know it's been hardfor johnny especially-
especially what?
I've never done anything like confession before, you know?
Anything you tell meis between us.
It's sarah, father.
I've been lying to her.
Maybe I've been so willing to accuse father tony of guilt
because of all the guiltI've been carrying, you know?
What do you haveto be guilty about?
Father, I saw walt diein a vision.
I couldn't stop it.
And I couldn't tell her.
If we've seen anythingthe last few days...
it's that the truth isthe only way back from darkness.
I don't want to hurt her.
You may thinkyou're protecting her, but she deserves to know the truth.
You must free yourselfof this burden...
before you can be at peace.
Is it too late?
Sarah, there's somethingI need to talk to you about.
What?
That you knew waltwas going to die that day?
And when I asked you if you'd seen anything... you lied to me?
Yeah. I saw it.
And you never told me.
How could you tell turnerand not me?
I was his wife, johnny.
This time that we've beenliving together...
I started to believe- I wanted to believe...
that something goodcould come out of this.
And I started to think that that something was you.
And I've lain awake so many nights, just- just wondering...
and-and hoping that... that maybe there could be a future for us again.
Me too.
You lied to me, johnny.
How can I trust you?
All I wantedwas to protect you.
And I was wrong.
I see it now, sarah.
I don't think that there'sa future here after all.
