(00:04):
Well, I hope it's on thebears. No, as far as I
don't know, he's still up there. Mm. Well I didn't stay.
No, I left when it's inthe ordinary for him. Hang up the
phone, Justin used to say tosee him. What is it, Richard,
Hang up the phone now, No, it's just Richard, Soimer.

(00:24):
I'll talk to you Leon all right. Yeah, I love you. Samantha
Hopkins. You're still seeing Yeah,I hope this is important, Yes it
is. Now I want you totake a look at peeks. What am
I looking at? And you're lookingat the blood test I just ran on
O'Brien. Yeah, and look atPeak sixteen serrhotomy. Yes, but it's

(00:46):
not natural. Now take a lookat peaks thirty two and twenty five.
Explain what you're getting at, Richard. I'm not a brain doctor. Someone
is giving German O'Brien hallucinogenic drugs.I used to this. I'm positive Derman
O'Brien is no more insane than youor I. Richard. Maybe you looked
at the wrong dammit, Justin.The proof is right there in front of

(01:07):
you. O'Brien's condition is due tothe fact that someone has been supplementing his
medication with the heavy doses of psychoactivecut All right, Richard, just take
it slowed down and tell them what'sgoing on. That must have been why
they took me off the case.They took you off the O'Brien case.
Yes, that's not it, Richard. It was because of me. What

(01:33):
are you talking about? I talkedto Houtmann and Chammer Richard, it all
sounded so ridiculous. I just thoughtthe stress was getting to you. Well,
do you believe me now? Yes? What did you say to them?
I just said that you were workingtoo hard, the stress of moving
and everything. I thought they werejust less than your case throwing d they

(01:56):
did. Did you tell them aboutthe cassador incident? No? They pressed
me for specifics about what you said, but I didn't tell them anything.
That's good. At least I mentionedthe baby. Oh that doesn't matter as
long as they still think we're inthe dark. Listen, from now on,
we talk to no one about this. Okay, all right, are

(02:17):
you still having a part of thisweekend? Yes? We need to start
getting to know these people in thisestablishment a lot better. Even if one
of your guess is the one withthe keys to Ria Cassidors justin. Almost
all of my guests have access tothose keys. There are some areas of

(02:40):
the human mind, and indeed,if the world read them, been that
were never meant for investigation. Thereare always those who delve into the darker
worlds of knowledge, and many paywith their sanity for their interest. Some
of these unfortunates are taken in bythe Habard Foundation, an organization studies paranormal

(03:07):
experiences and their effects on humanity.It is cases such as these that are
sent to a restored mansion in asmall coastal town in Maine, a center
for the care and study of theinsane. Since the nineteen twenties, this
place has been known as the HaywardSanitarium. You grant it will be seventeen

(03:38):
dollars, all right? Change?Oh no, no, no worry about
change. Go ahead and keep it. Thank you very much, Thank you,
ah doctor Ah sure Trumble, ofcourse you remember adjustin Karnamonta in the

(04:00):
basiness wanting to sell the house hehad, doctor, Actually, no,
I've decided to stay. I didn'tdoubt if anybody would actually buy that house
anyway. I suspect you're right there, not many people wanted to buy a
house that had a baby buried inthe basement. I spec if trouble.
You folks always know how to putthings into perspective. It's funny I should
run into you, doctor. Whatoh, why? Why is that?

(04:25):
I just came from the courthouse.We were having a meeting about the placing
the guardrail on the Cutter Street bridge. Where as you know, doctor Bailey's
accident was. Yes, the towncouncils all up in arms about it.
Really fine, folks around here getthat way about intoxicated drivers. I wouldn't
be surprised if the council tries toget the money out of your foundation.

(04:48):
It's not a big sum. Butyou know, yes, Sheriff, did
you say that doctor Bailey had beendrinking before the car crash? You know,
Tooxley showed was liquored up pretty good. His blood alcohol level was about
point two and that was the causeof death alcohol poisoning. Yes, the

(05:11):
autopsy said his neck was broken onimpact. He ran off the back road
coming into town from the hospital.Yes, I know that wrong. Well,
then you know how steep that reallyis, just before the creek.
Yes, the way his power waswrapped around that tree. I'd say he
was doing that. He's plifty whenhe went off the bridge. It's soft.
Old just keeps getting better. Bitches, Are there any ghost doors about

(05:34):
that bridge? Well, truths betold when I was a wee shaver that
I think that'll have to wait foranother time. Share for that, Jesster.
We should get these wopsitions. Yeah, yeah, goodbye, I'll see.
Yes, I wonder what he meantby the very small town of a

(06:00):
very small file. I tell you, bit you, you couldn't have picked
a better place to move to.Are you sure even Boston was the right
thing to do? Justin? Iwant you to call the center tonight and
ask to be relocated to the sanitarium. We look rich and I'm no psychiatrist,

(06:21):
but I'm beginning to have serious doubtsabout your sanity. I've got work
to finished. You do remember thatI have all that dated to Cordy,
don't you. You can do itat the sanitarium. There's plenty of them
at the house for you to stay. I understand with all the strange things
going on around here that you desolved. Justin Bailey was dead before that car
crashed. Hell, I don't thinkyou could have even gotten in that car.

(06:45):
What Doctor Bailey's personal files make mentionof his allergies. He was allergic
to alcohol justin plus four reactions,so he couldn't get drunk on his own.
He'd be so sick after one sip. He couldn't even keep drinking to
get his BAC that high, whichmeans someone is covering up his death.
It means he was murdered. Wherethat work? Why isn't he here?

(07:21):
Doctor Atwater is not your physician anylonger, mister O'Brien. From now on,
I'll be coordinating your treatments. Iwant to put water. I'm afraid
that won't be possible, mister O'Brien, Pole hands, mister O'Brien, Doctor
Chandler knows what's better for you.Really, just try to relax. I'm

(07:44):
gonna put it's train him. Whatyou can't get hard to the Robert you
may administer mister O'Brien's injection. Nolet me talk to talk. No,
No, I thought we'd get awayand notify the authorities. So you and

(08:07):
Achman were getting ready to run,and Fleischer just disappeared, and then he
comes from out of nowhere and cutsJohn's throat with the razor, and I
was amazing you could even move.I mean, John really beat the hell
out of him. He's that specialiston the orient right right. I guess
he was on some karate team too. Well. With John out of the

(08:28):
way, Fleischer came after me.That's when you killed him. Yeah,
that's when. That's when I killedhim. How did that feel, Richard?
Come on, don't think of meas a psychiatrist, tally, I'm
just a friend. Now, comeon, how'd you feel it? It

(08:48):
was horrible, of course. Iremember. I kept hitting him with this
shovel over and the over and overand over again, and he wouldn't stay
up coming at me. I crackedhis skull open, Richard, and he
still came after me. His bloodwas everywhere, and his face was his

(09:11):
face was so mangle. It's okay, Alley, it's not your fault,
I know, Richard. Thanks,he just acted in self defense. Here
take my handkerchief. Thanks. Now, you and Ajma were lucky to escape
with your lives, and death issuch a difficult thing to deal with.

(09:31):
You know. We should talk somemore about this when you have more time.
Yeah, I think i'd like that. Oh, Richard, there were
there were some flowers on my deskthis morning, but there wasn't a card.
You didn't know it wasn't that.Could you have a secret admirer?
I don't know. I guess Ibetter get that to work. Yeah.

source material on the vo doing religion? Well, doing is is. That's

something like voodoo more or less,though the words voodoo is kind of a
misleading term these days. Oh howso, Well, Vodoon is the actual
religion brought from Africa to the NewWorld via the early slave traits, and
voodoo is more of the popular notionis zombies and evil witch doctors like we
