Ashley: Do you want some more?
Alan: No, no thanks. I’ve had my fill. And I– I think maybe you have too.
Ashley: Nope. I’m gonna keep pouring and drinking as long as it keeps me awake. Thank you for staying awake with me.
Alan: Well, if you didn’t insist that traci go to sleep, she’d be standing by your side right now.
Ashley: Oh, I know. She might be my baby sister, but she’s been my rock for years.
Alan: Well, you’re very lucky to have siblings that care about you so much. Going on a trip like this with you and going on a journey to which no one knows the end. Takes a lot of love, and not a little courage.
Ashley: She’s always been the calm, the center of every storm. She loves and her loyalty, they’re just so fierce.
Alan: I’ve seen that in traci. I admire it.
Ashley: She’s stood by my side through so many different things. I mean, really, my whole family has. This particular journey might be pushing the limits just a little bit.
Alan: Well, you may be pushing your own limits. I mean, ashley, your hands are literally shaking.
Ashley: I’m okay. I wanna finish this.
Alan: Okay, exhaustion and adrenaline can be a very messy combination.
Ashley: I’m going to see this through.
Alan: And you will, okay? But, I mean, pushing yourself this hard could ultimately be detrimental. You need rest for what’s ahead. Why don’t we just wait ’til the morning and you can have traci by your side.
Ashley: We’ve already spoken about this, alan. I can’t take the chance of falling asleep and letting one of my alters take over. It could ruin everything. You know this. Come on.
Alan: An alter can take over when you’re awake, right? We’ve been there. We did it together. You were talking to me, and you lashed out. Not at me, but–
Ashley: I know. At one of the alters.
Alan: And the weaker you are, the easier it is for them to take control.
Ashley: I know. I mean, I like to think that I’m in charge now because I’m awake and I’m aware, but I’m really not in control, am I? At a moment, one of them could take control, and I don’t even know when I would get it back.
Alan: Look, your alters could come out at any time, but now with what we know, we can recognize that.
Ashley: I don’t wanna risk it.
Alan: Understandable. Okay. But the positive is that none of them have come out in a very long time. I mean, you are clearly so much stronger than when we began this process. And the more you know about your personalities, the more power you have over them.
Ashley: I don’t have enough power to figure out why they appeared in the first place.
Alan: I– I know. That– that is the goal. To uncover the trauma that caused all this, but I also want you to take in the progress you’ve made in such a short time. All right, you remembered the bar, my brother, and with each memory we regain, we’ll get closer to unraveling what happened that night.
Ashley: Right, right. As much as I wanna know, I’m afraid to find out.
Alan: Well, look, that– that is completely normal, all right? And I won’t lie to you, it’s not gonna be easy, but that is why I really think you need some rest. You can start in the morning fresh with traci by your side.
Ashley: There’s no rest for me. I just found out that your twin brother is a sociopath and he’s targeted me. There will be no sleep for me tonight.
Alan: And unfortunately, martin is a dangerous man. And believe me, as your friend, I am worried about what we’ll uncover. But as a professional, I am telling you that you need to face this trauma in order to reintegrate the alters so that you can become whole again.
Ashley: Are you okay? This must be very difficult for you. I know how hard it was. I mean, you spent so much time and energy trying to save your brother, trying to track him down when he vanished, and now this.
Alan: After I realized I couldn’t help martin anymore and let go, I thought I’d never see him again. And now for him to come back into my life like this, it’S… knowing how dangerous martin can be, it is not unreasonable to think that he was behind your trauma, and I’m just so sorry I put you in this situation. He would not have access to you if it wasn’t for me, and whatever he inflicted on you, I– I…
Ashley: It’s gonna be okay. Come on, let’s talk this through.
Alan: You’re right.
Ashley: Yeah.
Alan: Um, so what else do you remember from that night?
Ashley: Okay. It’s just a blank. What do I do? How do I remember more?
Alan: Well, I mean, doing what we’re doing. You know, try to visualize the place, listen for sound.
Ashley: Isn’t there something else we can do? Can’t we take this a step beyond?
Alan: Uh, well, I mean, there’s hypnosis.
Ashley: Hypnosis?
Alan: Look, it can be an effective therapy, ashley, but I don’t really think it’s appropriate.
Ashley: Wait, wait, wait. Have you used it in your practice before?
Alan: Uh, yes.
Ashley: Okay, was it productive?
Alan: At times.
Ashley: All right, so would it work in my situation? Okay, you’re stonewalling me. Are you afraid that we’re moving too fast? Is this worrying you? I mean, what is it? Just please tell me. Will this work for me?
Alan: It is not without risk.
Ashley: Alan.
Alan: All right?
Ashley: We have everything to gain and nothing to lose. Please. Let’s do this. Sfx: [Birds chirping]
Announcer: Additional sponsorship provided by…
Alan: Ashley, are you sure you’re ready for this?
Ashley: I have never been so sure about anything in my life.
Alan: Look, honestly, you’re not the ideal subject for this therapy right now. I mean, you need some rest.
Ashley: There’s nothing ideal about my situation, period. But that doesn’t mean we don’t try.
Alan: All right. So, listen, once I hypnotize you, you’ll be in a more relaxed state, but you’ll also be able to concentrate better so that you can retrieve your memories, okay?
Ashley: Get some answers, right?
Alan: Well, that is the hope.
Ashley: Okay.
Alan: All right, you comfortable? You ready?
Ashley: Yes, I’m ready.
Alan: Okay, now I want you to start by taking some nice, slow, deep breaths like you’re meditating, okay? Now, I’m gonna count from ten to one backwards and with each count, I want you to imagine you’re going deeper and deeper into a safe and peaceful place. Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven. Six. Five. Four. Three. Two. And one. All right. Now, just picture the bar where you met martin, all right? Imagine the people there, whatever sounds, and then try and describe the bar to me.
Ashley: There’s music playing. People are enjoying themselves. It’s not very crowded. I’m at a table and I order a glass of bordeaux.
Alan: And what– what happens next?
Ashley: I think that alan would like this bordeaux, so I call you and you say you’re gonna join me.
Alan: Except that it’s not alan who you called, right?
Ashley: No, it wasn’T.
Alan: Look, ashley, I want you to know that you are safe, all right? Your memories can’t hurt you. Okay? What happened when martin joined you? How did you greet each other? What did you say?
Ashley: We toasted our friendship. We were happy to see each other and we were catching up. And I talked to him about tucker and what was happening in my marriage.
Alan: How did it feel sitting there with him, just talking and drinking wine? How was that?
Ashley: It felt comfortable. I asked him if he wanted another glass of wine.
Alan: And what happened after that?
Ashley: I can’t remember.
Alan: Okay. Just try to remember the precise details of that moment. Any music you might hear. Any sounds.
Ashley: I can’T. Wait. He whispered something in my ear.
Alan: What did he whisper? Okay, okay. It’s all right, ashley. Just– just do this. Imagine hearing the people around you talking. You hear the music in the bar. Now, screen all of that out and focus only on what martin is saying.
Martin: I have a new piece of art I’d like you to see. I think you’ll find it fascinating.
Ashley: I remember.
Alan: Oh, okay. Ashley, I’m gonna count from one to ten and then you’re gonna come out and you’re gonna be in a calm, peaceful state, all right? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
Ashley: He wanted to show me a piece of art.
Alan: And– and what else?
Ashley: He paid the bill and then we left. That’s it. We have to go to your townhouse, alan.
Traci: No, no, ashley. It’s late and you’ve been pushing yourself so hard.
Ashley: Traci, please, I am so close to getting answers. I can’t stop now.
Alan: Well, are you sure you’re strong enough for what’s ahead?
Ashley: Yes, I’m telling you right now, I am strong enough. Please, I can’t take a chance of one of my alters taking over. Not when I’m so close to this, please. I know that if we go to your place, I’m going to remember.
Alan: Well, we could use all the answers we could get.
Ashley: Traci, please, I’ll be fine. You’ll be with me every step of the way. Tucker called.
Traci: Just ignore him, ashley.
Tucker: Hey, ashley. Uh, I know you’re in paris. Um, as it happens, I’m in paris, too. Actually, as luck would have it, I– I ran into your friend, alan, on the street, but he acted like I was a complete stranger, no recognition of me whatsoever. None. Anyway, I hope everything is working out for you and that you’re finding the answers you’re looking for.
Traci: What did he want?
Ashley: He’s in paris.
Traci: What? Did he follow you here?
Ashley: He says that he ran into you and you ignored him.
Alan: I didn’t ignore tucker. I didn’t even see him.
Ashley: He was positive that he saw you. Was it martin?
You are bountiful.
Alan: So, martin could be in paris right now.
Ashley: There’s no reason for tucker to lie about this.
Traci: What are you doing?
Ashley: I’m calling him.
Traci: What? It’s after midnight.
Ashley: It doesn’t matter.
[ Phone ringing ]
Tucker: Hey, ashley.
Ashley: How’d you know I was in paris?
Tucker: Jack told me.
Ashley: I doubt he would give you any information about me at all, tucker.
Tucker: Uh, he knows I was already coming on business and maybe he finally realizes I’m genuinely trying to help you through this.
Ashley: Where did you see alan? When was this?
Tucker: I bumped into him, quite literally, on the rue de marc. He looked straight into my eyes but seemed to have no recognition of me. Why do you ask? Everything okay? Do you need help?
Ashley: No, I’m fine. You didn’t run into alan. You were mistaken.
Tucker: How do you know who I saw or didn’t see?
Ashley: Listen, you’re here on business, right? Then, just focus on glissade. Don’t worry about me. Just leave it alone.
Tucker: But–
Ashley: Tucker definitely ran into your brother.
Alan: So, martin could’ve been in paris this whole time. I– I’ve had P.I.’S looking for him for almost two years and they found nothing.
Traci: Alan, if a person doesn’t want to be found… ashley, the conversation with tucker really upset you, didn’t it? Listen, if you don’t wanna continue, let’s just take a–
Ashley: No, please stop trying to– I need to do this, please. I need to see this through when I’m so close to getting these answers. Don’t you want answers? Don’t you wanna find martin?
Alan: If martin is off his meds, he is a danger to himself and others, so yes, I need to. But you do not need to do this for him or for me. You need to be your own priority right now, ashley.
Ashley: If you mean what you’re saying, then believe me when I tell you I need to do this, and I need to do it now.
Traci: So, have you been here before?
Alan: Well, we usually met in cafes the parisian way. But, you know, just look around. Anything look familiar or strike a chord or…
Ashley: Yeah, this is the painting that alan wanted me to see.
Alan: Well, it is a new painting.
Traci: How new?
Alan: I got it a couple months ago.
Ashley: So, I was here in the right time frame.
Traci: Are you okay?
Ashley: Hypnotize me again.
Alan: Ashley, it’s– it’s not a good idea. What you’ve been through, the exhaustion you have, I– I really think we should try to remember naturally.
Ashley: Okay. All right. Okay. I was sitting here on the sofa. Martin brought brandies and we talked some more.
Alan: Okay. Do you remember anything specific?
[ Distant noise ]
Ashley: What was that?
Alan: I don’t know. No one’s supposed to be here.
[Coughing]
Traci: I don’t suppose you have a cat?
Alan: No, but maybe I left a window open.
Traci: Or your brother did.
Alan: I’m prepared for that, but just wait here. Let me go see if there’s a sign of martin or if anyone’s been here, all right?
Traci: Oh. Okay, my nerves are officially frayed. I can’t even imagine how you’re feeling and you haven’t had any sleep.
Ashley: Yeah, I’m okay. I’m okay. I’m just trying to focus. You know, it’s taking every ounce of energy that I have to focus on this.
Traci: Ashley, do you know what I see when I look at you? I see my brave, strong sister who’s always ready to charge into battle and you’re doing it, right now, and I am just in awe.
Ashley: I told you before, I couldn’t do any of this without you. I mean, your willingness to just do everything you can to help me get to the other side of this is just phenomenal. Thank you so much.
Traci: Well, just because I have complete faith in you. And– and alan, what an amazing friend he is to you. He’s so dedicated and he’s doing everything he can to help you. You know, I really admire his loyalty.
Ashley: He said the same thing about you.
Traci: Well, maybe you inspire it in people.
Ashley: Something shifted.
Traci: It shifted? What– what do you mean?
Ashley: You know, I had this buzzing in my head. It’s not– it’s not like it was before. The voices aren’t as loud and clear as they were in the past.
Traci: Well, maybe that’s a really good sign. Maybe– maybe the alters are getting weaker.
Ashley: Yeah. Yeah, I’m gonna take it as a sign that I’m getting stronger, right?
Traci: Oh, ashley. I’m sorry you’ve had to face so much uncertainty these last months with these alters. I mean, you– you find yourself in strange places, and– and you don’t know how you got there, what you’ve done. And yet, through all of that, look at you. You’re standing here focused and determined and steady.
Ashley: Don’t give me too much credit. I’m only here because I have to be. You’re here because you love me. That’s the real bravery, trace.
Traci: No. The brave traveling companion and sounding board. Yeah, that’s me.
Ashley: Don’t sell yourself short. Please. Your reassurance is keeping me grounded through this.
Traci: Well, there’s plenty more reassurance where that came from.
Ashley: Good, I’m gonna need it.
Martin: The man is clearly a narcissist, a selfish bastard. I say to hell with him. This is not a man who deserves a second chance.
Ashley: Well, I did throw him for a loop when I told him I wasn’t ready to back away from my family entirely.
Martin: Look, you’re just excusing his behavior.
Ashley: That’s not true. I’m explaining it.
Martin: Ashley, he made himself clear. The violence he showed you was just the beginning, but the question is, what was underneath it? What did he truly want in that moment? It was to berate you, to humiliate you, to terrorize you.
Ashley: I don’t think that was the case.
Martin: You’re diminishing his actions. Ashley, you need to be free of him. You need to move on. You have so much to offer. You’re too fascinating a subject to be held back by petty psychological confusion.
Ashley: Subject? Are you analyzing me now? Is this a therapy session?
Martin: Ashley…
Alan: Ashley?
Traci: Did you find anything?
Alan: Uh, no sign of martin or anyone else having been in the apartment since I was out of the city. Are you all right?
Ashley: I remembered more. I would’ve called yesterday.
Announcer: The young and the restless will continue.
Alan: What did you remember?
Ashley: Martin and I were talking about the fight I had with tucker, but he said it was more than just an argument. He said that tucker was trying to frighten me and humiliate me.
Traci: That’s when it started. That– that’s when you started getting confused about the argument.
Ashley: Yes, and he called me his subject like he was analyzing me.
Traci: That is so strange.
Alan: Well, not so much when you have an understanding of my brother. Once he started transcribing the notes from my sessions, he became obsessed with how I was treating my patients, so much so that he believed because of his own pathology, he had a better understanding of the psyche than I.
Traci: Well, that’s just terrifying. To have someone so troubled not be able to even see their own condition for what it is and to think they have all the answers over a trained professional.
Alan: Or enlightening.
Ashley: How so?
Alan: Well, martin’s arguments got to me on some level. I don’t like to admit that, and I certainly couldn’t admit it then, but, you know, I have doubts. I’ve begun to question how I treated my patients, my brother. I don’t know. Maybe I should’ve listened to him more closely.
Traci: Oh, alan, you’re brilliant at what you do.
Alan: Look, see, martin, he– he lived through what I only observed in my patients, read in books. He experienced reactions to medication, to therapy. I don’t know. Maybe I hurt him more than I helped. I– I should’ve showed him a path forward instead of controlling him. You know, pointed out his underlying gifts. It was definitely an error of judgment treating him and… he suffered for it.
Ashley: You’re being too hard on yourself, alan. You were just trying to help him.
Alan: That’s very kind of you. But we are not here to discuss my issues with my brother. We’re here for you. So… after he said you were a subject, what happened after that?
Ashley: It’s just a fog.
Alan: Why don’t we try hypnosis again?
Traci: Wait, wait. You said earlier that that would be some risk to ashley because of her exhaustion.
Ashley: It’s okay. If alan thinks I can do this, I can do it.
[ Traci sighing ] I’m ready.
Alan: All right. I want you to close your eyes.
Ashley: Okay.
Alan: And bring attention to your breath. You were upset that martin called you a subject. So, what happened after that?
Martin: You came to me as a friend. But you also came to me because of my knowledge of psychology. Of course, you are not a subject. But use me. Use my expertise. I can see you’re conflicted about tucker and what happened at the bistro. Maybe we can resolve it together.
Ashley: How?
Martin: I think it might be a good idea for us to try role-play. Recreate the argument. I’ll be tucker. I’ll say the things he meant to say. And that will give you time to respond so you can stand up for yourself.
Ashley: I don’t get the point of that.
Martin: Don’t you trust me?
Ashley: Of course, I trust you.
Martin: I just want you to see this confrontation for what it was. See tucker for who he is, what he’s capable of, because you deserve more. You deserve to live the life you choose, ashley. We all do. So, let’s change the dynamic. Recreate the fight. But this time, we’ll put the power in your hands.
[ Alan snaps fingers ]
Traci: Oh, ashley, you’re trembling.
Alan: What– what happened? What do you remember?
Ashley: Martin wanted to reenact the fight I had with tucker, with him being tucker, and I didn’t want to.
Traci: Oh, my gosh, why would he even say that? Okay, that’s it. We are stopping. We can do this tomorrow.
Ashley: I am not stopping. Not when I have this momentum. I can’T. So, I didn’t think I needed swiffer.
Traci: Ashley, I know that you are desperate to find out the truth. I’m as eager as you are to get to the bottom of what’s going on with you and see you healed. But you are emotionally and physically exhausted.
Ashley: Traci, I am okay.
Traci: Saying it over and over again doesn’t make it true. This is taking its toll on you. Think about what you might remember. You have to be strong and ready for what’s ahead.
Ashley: I am prepared.
Traci: You told me that i fight for you when you can’t fight for yourself. Look, that is what I’m doing. Right now, ashley, I’m fighting for you. Take some time to process everything you’ve learned. Alan, wouldn’t that be healthier?
Alan: Traci, I– I appreciate your concern, and I respect it, okay? But we are at a pivotal point here. Your sister’s right. We need to push on. Seriously, this needs to happen.
Ashley: Thank you so much. I know that you care about me. I love you for that. I really do. But I know alan would never put me in any kind of a danger. I trust him completely. I’m okay.
Traci: Alan, can you tell me that she is safe to continue?
Alan: I promise you, she is in very good hands.
Traci: That is not what I asked you. Oh, okay. Oh, okay. Okay.
Ashley: Traci, thank you.
Alan: All right. Now, the last thing you remember is sitting on the couch with martin, and he wanted you to recreate the argument you had with tucker. Emphasizing the angry subtext.
Ashley: Yeah.
Alan: So, let’s try to remember what happened after that, all right? You ready?
Ashley: Yeah.
Alan: Okay. So, close your eyes again. Pay attention to your breath. I’m gonna count backwards from ten.
Ms. Abbott: Stop this, ashley. Stop right now. You don’t know what you’re doing. You’re not ready. You’re too weak. I’m the only one who can face the truth.
Traci: Ashley, what happened?
Ashley: Oh. It’s ms. Abbott. She’s trying to take over.
Alan: Look, don’t let that happen, all right? Not now.
Ashley: She says she’s the only one that can do it, that I’m too weak.
Alan: No, you are not too weak. You are stronger than you have ever been. You fight her.
Ms. Abbott: He’s wrong. He doesn’t know you like I do. Let me help you. Let me take over. It’s the only way.
Alan: Ashley, you can do this, all right? You’ve done the work. You can face the truth. Don’t let her out. Don’t let any of them out.
Ashley: She’s getting stronger, though. I can feel it. I don’t think I can stop her.
Alan: You fought hard to get here. Don’t give up now. Stay alert, all right? Only you can do this. Only you can see this through.
Ms. Abbott: He’s lying to you. Listen to me. Let me out.
Alan: Ashley, ashley, listen to me. Ashley, listen to me. Look at me. I want you to listen to my words very closely. This is a good thing, okay? It means you’re getting closer to the truth. That’s why the alters are scared, but you’re not scared, because you don’t need them anymore.
Ashley: Okay. Okay. I think they’re gone. I think she’s gone.
Alan: Okay. All right. Look, let’s try to continue, all right? Think hard. What do you remember happening after that?
[ Alan sighing ] All right. It’s all right. It’s all right. Um, traci, could you make us a pot of coffee and make it really strong?
Traci: Coffee? Now? Ashley, I am begging you to stop and just get some sleep.
Ashley: I can’t stop right now. I have to get these answers. Please.
Tucker: Everything okay? Do you need help?
Ashley: I’m fine. And you’re wrong about alan. You’re mistaken. You didn’t see him.
Tucker: How do you know who I saw or didn’t see?
Ashley: Listen, you’re here on business, then focus on glissade. Don’t worry about me. Just leave it alone, please.
Tucker: What’s going on, ashley?
Traci: Maybe the coffee can wait.
Alan: Ashley needs to focus all of her energy on remembering what happened in this room. That– that is key to her healing. And– and if we lose this momentum, I can’t speak to what will happen next or how long it will take us to get back to this point. Traci, even a loving and supportive sister can be a distraction for ashley right now. Now, I know you mean well, and I completely respect that, but your very presence could be impeding her progress and I know you don’t want that.
Ashley: I’m okay, traci. I swear to you.
Traci: Are you certain?
Ashley: I am me. I am certain.
Traci: Okay. Okay.
Alan: Shall we, uh, try hypnosis again?
Ashley: Yes, yes, yes.
Ms. Abbott: No more hypnosis. Don’t listen to him, ashley. You don’t know what you’re doing. Stop.
Alan: She’s back again, isn’t she? Fight her.
Ashley: I don’t think I can.
Alan: No, you can. You have to. Everything depends on this moment, ashley. Your will and your strength. If you let those alters back in, we could lose everything that we have gained so far. We may not remember what happened this evening or– or what started all of this. This next step is key to your healing. You have to fight for nothing less than your survival.
Ms. Abbott: Don’t listen to him. I’ll deal with this. You’ll be safe.
Ashley: Stop it.
Ms. Abbott: I’ll protect you.
Ashley: Stop it!
Ms. Abbott: You need me.
Ashley: No, I don’t need you! I don’t need you to protect me! Please just go! Oh…
Alan: Ashley?
Ashley: Okay. She’s gone. I think I bought some time, but I don’t know how much.
Ga, the advanced form
Alan: We need to take the next step. Now, that night, martin wanted you to recreate the fight with tucker, but you didn’t want to, right? And you don’t remember anything after that?
Ashley: No. He said it would give me back my power, but I was afraid to.
Alan: Well, I think we need to reenact that night as vividly as we can. You were sitting on the sofa, right?
Ashley: Yeah.
Alan: Okay. Shall we? Let’s sit down here.
Ashley: Okay.
Alan: It’s okay, ashley. Come on. Let’s try it. Like this? You were sitting like this?
Ashley: Yeah.
Alan: Okay. So then, now let’s– let’s close your eyes, all right, take deep breaths, and… oh, take in all the sensations and the sounds and let’s go back to that night.
Martin: I know you’re afraid, ashley, but this is the only way to resolve your conflict with your husband and your relationship. Are you ready?
Ashley: Okay. Yeah.
Martin: All right. I’ll be tucker.
Ashley: Mm-hmm.
Martin: You just speak to me as you would him, your side of the argument. It– it’s all right. This is a safe space, okay?
Ashley: Okay. Um… tucker, I know that we were planning on building a company together, but I– I just can’t back away from my family like that. Um… but I’m not betraying you. I love you. Um, I’m wearing your ring. This is our honeymoon.
Martin: But you know what really happened, right? You saw his rage, the way he knocked over that wine glass, kicked that chair.
Ashley: But he didn’T.
Martin: Ah. I want you to look beyond what you think you see. Understand the underlying moment. See his rage, the way he wanted to control you, to dominate you, punish you for not loving him the way he wanted you to love him.
Tucker: I don’t care anymore. I don’t care where you sleep. I don’t care what you do. I’m done. Goodbye, ashley. You go to hell!
Ashley: He expected a lot from me, but–
Martin: This is where we change the narrative, ashley. You stand up for yourself. You fight back.
Ashley: Fight back how?
Martin: You show them you don’t give up. That you don’t cower. That you push through. Show them your power and then you take it back. You’re so– so strong, ashley. So beautiful. But, tucker, he– he didn’t understand you. He didn’t know what he had. But I do. I– I know what you have to offer. Your beauty. I can be your tucker. A better version. With me, you’ll be strong and safe. You’ll never have to fear again. I will give you everything you want. Everything you need.
Tucker: You made me cut open a vein and bleed for you. Beg you! I had to love you so– no, I didn’t just have to love you, did I? I had to worship you, because that’s the only way to get this ice queen to thaw. Total devotion. You destroyed me, ashley. Destroyed me!
Ashley: I know what happened.
Alan: Tell me.
Ashley: I– I somehow confused the two because tucker was angry, but martin was… so frightening, and he was aggressive, and he was violent with me, and I blended them together somehow.
Alan: Yeah, and then what happened?
Ashley: I don’t know. It’s just a complete blank. It’s just a wall. Is that when my mind just splintered off? Is that when I created the alters, and they came in to protect me, but they were protecting me from tucker and not martin? Is that what happened?
Alan: Well done. I knew I could do it.
Ashley: Do what?
Alan: Crack the code. Solve the riddle.
Ashley: What are you talking about?
Alan: Well, my brother thought he had all the answers. Played god with his patients. Let them think he knew best, but I knew best. I know best and you just helped me prove it.
Ashley: Helped you prove what?
Alan: Well, as they say, if you, uh, figure it out, you will be my favorite subject.
Ashley: You’re martin.
Martin: Hm. Brilliant and beautiful, but a little slow on the uptake today. No, no, no.
[ Ashley screams ] Come here. Come here.
