Morning, brother.
(Meow)
(Purring)
(Whistling a tune)
Can I help you?
Do you remember me?
I'm sorry, do I know you?
Do you know me?
I know you.
(Grunting)
I know you! I know you!
I got out of bed today
Swear to God
I couldn't see my face
I got out of bed today
staring at a ghost
Oh have you seen my ghost
Seen my ghost,
seen my ghost?
Oh have you seen my ghost
staring at the ground?

Originally Aired October 21, 2013
- Let's go for lunch.
On me.
- What's with you?
- What I can't buy the team lunch?
- No, it's just
you're trying to be nice.
Stop it.
No, no, don't stop it.
I like
the nice Aidan.
And free lunch?
- So, where are we going?
- Kensington Market.
- Tacos?
- Empanadas.
- Attempt ***.
- That's right.
There was
a knife attack in Kensington
Market this morning.
Victim was
slashed 5 times.
Over 100
stitches, but he'll live.
What makes it ours?
Suspect, or victim?
Nothing on the suspect.
He's in the wind.
You're on it for the victim -
Idaris John, 40.
Medical records show
he's been diagnosed with p
pro-so-pag-noss
Prosopagnosia.
For real?
Huh.
It's super rare,
really interesting.
Yeah, layman's term is
"Face Blindness".
- As in?
- As in, if you have it,
you can't make sense of any
facial features.
You can't tell
one person from the other,
unless you heard their voice
or recognized
some other part of them.
The brain just doesn't process
the visual information
of a face the way it's
supposed to.
It's often a sign
of neurological damage,
like a brain injury or a stroke.
OK, you guys get
to the Market, you two get down
to the hospital, see if you can
coax anything out of Idaris John.
We need a description of the
assailant.
Let's get this guy
off the street.
(Knocking on door)
(Door opening)
Mr.
John?
Do I know you?
I'm Doctor Malone.
I work with the police.
This is Detective Wisnefski.
I already spoke
to an officer.
I cannot identify this man.
I understand that.
I've read a summary
of your file.
You've had your condition
for the last 4 years or so?
I cannot remember how long.
You'll have to ask my doctor.
Can you tell me what you see
when you look at me?
You have all the pieces
of a face
a nose,
mouth
and your eyes.
You have very unique eyes.
I might recognize you.
How do you cope?
I have a doctor.
He teaches me tricks,
techniques.
Voices help, jewellery,
tattoos.
I look at you
and mainly I see your gun.
It's how I would be
most likely to know you
if I see you again.
The man who attacked you,
what did you notice about him?
His knife.
"I know you" or "You know me".
That's what the witnesses said
that they heard.
Any description of the suspect?
Black male.
I'm getting
ages from 18 to 45,
height from 5'8 " to 6'2".
So, they noticed he was black.
Figures.
That's about all.
You go this far,
you slash Idaris John 5 times.
Not much more to kill him.
So, why stop?
Stab wounds kill.
He only slashed.
What are you, Dexter?
You're reading blood spatter?
I read the medical reports.
How
many stab wounds have you treated?
So, either he didn't know what he was
doing or he didn't want to kill him.
Maybe he was trying
to send a message.
Jilted husband.
Maybe Idaris
didn't pay protection.
Maybe he gambles.
Or, maybe Idaris was
just a random victim.
Witnesses heard "I know you"
or "you know me"?
So, you think it's personal.
I hope it's personal.
We don't want random.
What are you doing? Where's
Idaris? Is he gonna be OK?
OK, our people are with him
over at the hospital.
He's gonna be fine.
What were you doing with his stuff?
He didn't do anything.
Someone attacked him.
We're
just trying to figure out why.
Look, we're not trying to
cause any trouble for Mr.
John.
Do you work here? Yeah, my shift
was supposed to start now.
- What's your name?
- Julia.
Julia, do you know anyone
who'd want to hurt your boss?
No.
Everybody loves Idaris.
Detective Sergeant?
I found something.
- I think the blade's up.
- I think I got it.
(Firecrackers)
Get the hell out of here!
You'll blow your fingers off!
Yo, Aidan.
You cool?
Yeah, man.
Just a little jumpy,
that's all.
Still doing that group thing?
Not enough.
- You want to take care of that?
- Yeah.
Seems like it's not just faces
he can't remember.
He has short-term
memory problems.
The prosopagnosia
could be part of larger
- neurodegenerative issues.
- Excuse me.
Can we help you?
Uh, oh, do I look
like I need help?
We're just in the middle
of an assessment.
If you could
just give us a moment,
Dr Bruckmann.
Oh,
you specialize
in geriatrics, right?
Yes, I do.
You're assessing my patient?
He was a victim in a crime.
I'm Dr.
Clara Malone.
This is Detective Wisnefski
with Psych Crimes Unit.
So, you're his psychiatrist?
But he's
Young.
Yes, he is.
We're here
because of the face blindness.
We'd hoped for some kind of
a description out of him.
- That's not possible for him.
- I realize that,
but he has
some memory problems.
The prosopagnosia was
one of his first symptoms.
Then memory loss,
some disorientation.
- Early-onset Alzheimer's?
- I'm afraid so.
- He's what, early 40s?
- It's not common.
- But likely fatal.
- How long has he got?
Five or six years.
He's heading
into the middle stages.
His memory comes and goes.
So, he might remember
more tomorrow?
He might.
But if you're hoping to get
a description out of him
that's never gonna happen.
A guy matching our vague
description, he applied
for a job sweeping up at
a barbershop around the corner.
All right,
let's go talk to him.
It's not that easy.
He only left an email contact.
No phone number, no address.
- What about a name?
- Ben.
All right, I'll have Poppy
email him as a barbershop owner,
set up a fake interview,
lure him in.
Wait, so, you're allowed
to lie to people that easy?
- Yeah.
- And it's not entrapment?
No, it's entrapment to invite
a guy to buy a key of coke,
but invite him to a job interview, tell him
he won the lottery, that's all fair game.
Damn.
I gotta start working
on my lying skills.
Leave it to the professionals.
Oh, hold on, one second.
You promised.
- Come on, man.
- All right.
Hiding the knife doesn't
say random.
Well, it's a rational choice.
At least, rational for somebody
who goes around attacking people
with a knife.
- Then there's the "I know you".
- Which Idaris doesn't think is true.
But Idaris is
an unreliable witness.
OK, the prints off the knife
got a match: Benjamin Omari.
A refugee from the Democratic Republic of
Congo.
He's been in the country 6 months.
Ben.
Ben!
Poppy, did you get a reply
to that email?
Crickets.
The kid's still
out there somewhere.
Priors?
- None.
- Then how'd we get a print match?
This new refugee law.
Everyone applying
for status gets fingerprinted.
And we can access that database?
What is this, a police state?
We got a match to our suspect.
That's all I care about.
Does Benjamin Omari have
an address?
Last known was
a refugee shelter.
He got kicked out a couple months ago.
No one's seen him since.
He was sponsored coming over;
human rights organization
called Justice Monitor International.
A Solange Owusu
signed off on him.
Do you know if there's anyone
else hear with him?
- Friends, family?
- I'll get his file.
No one.
He's alone here.
Can I just see that?
Oh, my god.
It looks just like him.
Yes, that's Ben, age 12.
No, not Ben.
Who's that?
Musa Buturo.
Wanted for crimes in the Congo.
He went by the name Melugo -
The Wizard.
He's one of Ben's
commanders.
Why?
He looks just like the man
Ben attacked.
That's Idaris John.
What do you know about the war
in The Democratic
Republic of Congo?
Most casualties in a conflict
since World War II,
and no end in sight.
- What was this man's role?
- Melugo was a commander in the rebel militia
that has killed hundreds,
more likely thousands.
He's been in hiding for years.
This is the only known video
of him.
(Man):This has been
called Africa's
civil war.
Millions are dead.
You yourself have shed blood
for the freedom of your people.
You've said it was God's will.
I've only said it is God's
will for my people to be free.
It is His will for
all His children to be free.
You talk of freedom
for children,
and yet you abducted
and indoctrinated
hundreds of children to fight for your cause.
Is that not true?
I abduct no one.
Force no one.
You see children here because
I give them a safe place.
What does it tell you that they ask
for arms to protect themselves?
We fight for our lives here
every day.
What about you?
What do you fight for?
And you say he's here?
This is the man Ben attacked?
The resemblance is very strong.
But I saw Idaris' personal
documents at the scene.
Everything looked legit.
These men are thieves
as well as killers.
With what they steal,
they can buy a new identity.
So, Melugo was
Ben's commander, and then
he reinvented himself
as Idaris John.
Gives us a motive
for the attack.
And it brings up
another question:
who's the real victim here?
Well it sure looks like
the same guy.
So, what do we know
about Idaris John?
He's been here 4 years,
he's had the fruit market for 3.
There's no record,
no flags from Immigration.
This guy's created a solid
new identity
- for himself.
- Well, if it's false, it's not solid.
Where'd he get the money
for the fruit market?
He runs his finances
through a local credit union
one branch, low profile.
Looks like
he's got money stashed offshore,
- but I can't get the details.
- First question is:
How do we confirm
that Idaris John is Melugo?
- We have the video.
- Yeah, but he's not mentioned by name, and it's no proof
of the crimes he's accused
of committing, so we're not
going to get much hard evidence
from there, I'm afraid.
Then we need to find Ben
Omari.
He can confirm that
Idaris is his former commander
and legitimize this video.
So, the only guy who can pin this on Idaris
is the one wanted for attacking him.
Have you heard from him?
Still no reply to the job interview.
I'm not surprised.
I could try telling him he's hired?
All right,
so when we do ID Idaris,
then what? Can we deport him?
If we can prove he's a war criminal and
he's not facing execution for his crimes.
Not so fast.
With his mental condition,
he can fight deportation
on medical grounds.
- You gotta be kidding me.
- It's the law.
How convenient is that?
What if he's faking?
Idaris started seeing
Dr.
Bruckmann
not long after he arrived.
That's 4 years
of fooling a fairly well-known
expert in the field.
Not likely.
OK, but none of this is
likely.
Our victim is
a war criminal, our assailant is
his former child soldier.
And like Solange said,
this guy's a practiced liar.
OK, if he's faking,
then we've got to prove it.
I can assess him.
Idaris.
Do I know you?
Don't you?
Dr.
Malone.
Your eyes.
I told you.
Why am I here?
Can I show you some pictures?
Do you recognize anyone here?
Do I know one of them?
I believe you know all of them.
I do not know.
Do you recognize this one?
How about him?
- Is that the man who attacked me?
- No.
This one is you.
OK, no more faces.
- Thank you.
Are we done?
- Not quite.
I'd like you
to draw a clock for me.
Just a simple one.
Not so bad
as my doctor says, am I?
You're doing fine.
- So, what did I just see?
- His symptoms are textbook.
Every detail was exactly right.
Is that normal?
Well, the only thing
consistent with the human brain
is its inconsistency,
so no, it's not.
- So, he's lying.
- Not so I can prove it.
The test confirmed
his diagnosis.
Screw the test.
What's your gut tell you?
It doesn't work that way.
Clara, I mean, you look
at this guy, what do you see?
- Is he sick, or not?
- I don't know, Aidan.
It's like I'm looking
at a mask.
- So, how do we take it off?
- I spoke with Legal.
Clara is right.
We can't deport
someone with his diagnosis.
Then we need to put him on trial right
here.
This guy's a war criminal, Dianne.
The War Crimes Act has
resulted in one conviction ever,
and that was a case
with multiple witnesses.
With Idaris' neurological disorder, he may
never even see the inside of a courtroom.
Or maybe he will.
You remember I said
Idaris' symptoms were textbook?
- Yeah.
- A patient in here describes
her condition with the exact
same words Idaris used with me.
So, you're saying
he read the book?
Maybe, yes.
He drew this for me.
Look.
OK, don't try and tell me
that's a coincidence.
To this level of detail?
Can't be.
- So, he's faking.
- Is that plausible? Four years?
Look, this guy knows
what he's done.
He knew
the odds were he'd be found out
someday, so he set himself up
in advance.
He's a sick man,
can't be deported,
maybe not even fit
to stand trial here.
Who was that mobster
that walked around for years
in his bathrobe talking to himself,
running his organization the whole time?
Vinny Gigante,
and it worked.
Even if he wanted to,
Idaris couldn't do this without help.
- What are you saying?
- One of the contributors
to the book is his doctor,
Paul Bruckmann.
- You think Bruckmann coached him?
- I think we have to ask.
So, we'll see you
next week, Mrs.
Dalakis.
OK, bye-bye.
Oh, hello,
Dr.
Malone.
And?
Detective Black.
Can we have a word?
Well, I've got
- 10 minutes between patients.
- Perfect.
Oh, wow, look at those.
Amazing.
Is that an AGPA?
Two thousand and nine, yes.
Affiliation of Geriatric
Psychiatry Award.
Very big deal.
Impressive.
So, we're having a hard time
getting through to Idaris,
and I'm wondering if, in addition to
memory lapses associated with Alzheimer's,
there may be
some transcultural issues.
Do you know anything
about his life in Africa?
Anything that might be affecting the
way he's processing the attack?
I know he comes
from an unstable area,
that he fled
under refugee status.
I'd assumed his story was
not a pleasant one.
But you didn't specifically deal with any
of that during the course of treatment?
My focus has been
on his mental deterioration
coping mechanisms for it,
and his prosopagnosia.
Practical therapeutic
strategies, sure.
But really,
his past never came up?
Not specifically, no.
So you're not aware
that Idaris John is
a wanted war criminal?
What?
Has it occurred to you
that Idaris could be malingering
to escape prosecution?
How could that occur to me?
- That's ridiculous.
- Idaris
did this drawing for me.
You published a very similar image
in one of your books, didn't you?
Fact is, it's
more than similar, isn't it?
We know he's faking,
Dr.
Bruckmann, so why don't you
just tell us the truth?
- You're insinuating that I'm not?
- I'm not insinuating anything.
I'm accusing you of collusion
and obstruction of justice.
No, you're spouting
conspiracy fantasies.
- Idaris John
- Is a very sick man.
And I'm not going
to continue this conversation.
If you ask me, it's the two
of you who need some help.
Thank you.
He's lying.
Definitely.
And he's scared too,
and not just of us.
Four years he's been
coaching Idaris John.
What do you got to pay a doctor to betray
his oath like that?
Good question.
We'll definitely check
his finances.
What's up?
- You still at Bruckmann's office?
- We're just leaving now.
Why?
I got a response from Ben
on the barbershop job.
Email was sent 2 minutes ago
from a web café in the market,
right near you.
I'll text you the address.
(Mumbling quietly)
(Door chimes)
Ben, put the pipe down.
Listen to me.
I know why you did what you did.
I know about Melugo.
I need you to come with me.
I want
to listen to what you have to say.
No.
Look, don't make
another bad choice.
Aidan, he's a soldier,
wired for commands,
intimidation over reason.
All right, I got this.
- Ben, I need you to put that pipe down.
- No.
No, you stay back!
Put it down.
Stay back!
I've killed men before!
Listen to me, man,
put that pipe down!
(Softly): Put it down, Ben.
Put the pipe down.
Ben Omari, you're under arrest.
Ben, you're - you''re facing some
pretty serious charges.
- You nearly killed a man.
- No, I let him live.
And you're lucky he did.
What happened?
Did you lose your nerve?
Never.
He should suffer.
He should live in fear.
You sure you don't want
that sandwich?
'Cause, I mean,
I'll eat it if you don't.
Tell me about him.
His name is
Melugo, is that right?
Ben, I know you've had
a rough life.
I can't even begin to imagine what you've
been through, and how it's affected
Look, everyone wants me to
talk about my life from before.
I am done with that.
That is all.
You say you're done with it,
but you just attacked a man
- with a knife.
- It's not your concern.
I know it's not easy
to walk away from things.
I know what it's like
to be haunted.
Why didn't you kill him?
I was going to!
He made me confused.
How did he do that?
He didn't remember me.
He didn't remember you,
and and he should have
remembered you, is that right?
All of those things that I did
were his orders.
Ben, if you saw him again
would you swear
that he was your commander?
Would you sign a paper?
Yes.
I would.
With respect,
I do not see the point.
You know I cannot identify him.
Maybe you'll recognize his voice.
An article of clothing.
Maybe a mannerism.
I see.
I will try.
(Elevator ding)
Was that him?
Yes.
(Aidan): - Did you see that?
(Clara): - I saw it.
He flinched.
All right.
Let's turn up the heat.
Go ahead.
I know you.
I know you.
Do you recognize his voice?
It might be the voice
I heard, it might not.
It all happened so quickly.
OK, let's sit down.
Is there anything else,
Inspector?
There is one thing.
You say
you can't identify him, but this
young man says he can identify you.
- Oh?
- Mm-hmm.
He claims you're a war criminal
and that you abducted him
when he was 12 years old.
He says he knew you
by the name of what was it?
Melugo.
So disturbed, so sad.
I truly feel sorry
for this boy.
That's generous,
considering he attacked you.
I was a child soldier also.
Did you know that?
No, we didn't.
I was recruited.
I fought.
I lost my way.
But I was freed.
But you made it here.
You're safe.
Seems like you've wiped
the slate clean,
like you've made
a whole new life.
It might not make
a difference, but for my part,
I do not wish to press
any charges against that boy.
May I go home now?
So, how'd he react?
Idaris can't hide the pleasure
he takes in lying.
He smiles without knowing it.
We call it "Duper's Delight.
"
Well, we can't do anything with that.
No.
But we both saw it at
the elevator.
He knew Ben.
We caught him off guard
for a minute,
and then in the observation room
he was back in control.
OK, so we gotta take it away
from him.
Rattling his cage
until he cracks
and drops his charade.
He's good, Aidan.
(She sighs.
)
I know this is my problem, but
I don't know how to solve it.
I'm gonna put a fulltime tail
on him.
He's human,
he'll screw up eventually.
We just need to be there.
We may have
already tipped our hand.
We go further, he could be
on a plane with a new identity.
No.
He runs,
we'll be on him.
(Elevator ding)
Go easy on that sugar.
It's gonna kill you.
All right, let's take a seat.
Hey, Aidan.
It's been a while.
- Yeah, yeah.
- Working too much again?
Little bit.
But, you know, I'm here
now, trying to make the most of it.
Yeah, sure, of course.
OK, everybody,
I guess we'll get started.
I think everybody
knows each other.
Aidan,
you look like you might want
to say something.
Uh, yeah, no, I do.
Um
Well, you know, I've been
coming here for a
(Door opening)
for a while now, and, uh
Hi there.
Everything cool?
I met a guy that said this
would be a good place for me.
Yeah, sure.
Of course.
Come on in.
Come on in, take a seat.
Welcome.
Uh, Aidan was
just gonna say something.
Yeah.
Uh, you know, it's OK.
I can wait.
Um
Why don't you go, man? Tell us
what's what's going on.
Did he just make us?
- I didn't see anything.
(Aidan): - Hard to tell.
Like everything else
with this guy.
How was last night?
You had a thing?
Yeah, no, it was
it was good.
How about you? You look
like you've been up all night.
I went online and read every paper I
could find by Dr.
Paul Bruckmann.
And?
The clock thing was lazy.
So was coaching Idaris
in another patient's
exact set of symptoms.
He's corrupt,
but he's not thorough.
If we can get access
to Bruckmann's files on Idaris,
I swear I can break him.
Anyone ever tell you
you would've made a good cop?
Not until now.
(Cell phone vibrating)
- What's up, Poppy?
- You wanted leverage
on Dr.
Bruckmann.
I think we got it.
Monthly transfers to him
from an offshore account.
Let me guess: going back
as long as Idaris has been here.
- Yep.
- OK, so, we've got Idaris
paying the doctor
to help him fake his condition.
- Find out if that's enough for a warrant.
- Caligra's looking into it.
Admissible proof
of the transfers is tricky.
All right, get Leo
and get down here.
You guys stay with Idaris.
Good work.
- So, what do we do now? Wait?
- No way.
We hit him now.
Tell him the warrant's coming and let
him think through the consequences.
- Let me take the lead in there.
- You got it.
Dr.
Bruckmann?
Oh, my god.
If Idaris figured out that
we were on to him,
Bruckmann was the only one who
could testify that he was faking.
So Idaris cuts the weak link.
But now that Bruckmann's
gone, I mean, maybe we can
get rid of his phony diagnosis.
I mean, the way Bruckmann was
killed, right - at his desk,
from behind - he had to be
comfortable with the killer.
It's like it was somebody
he knew, like a friend, or
Like a patient.
Hey, guys.
You gotta see this.
Julia Grieveson,
the girl who works for Idaris.
She started seeing Bruckmann
after her parents died -
car crash.
Now she lives
with her grandmother.
That's the connection.
Idaris was on the hunt for
an impressionable young helper.
And Bruckmann set him up
with a brand-new orphan.
He's still using children
to fight his battles.
She's 16.
You really think
she killed a man?
Ben was fighting a war
when he was younger than that.
You did a good job in not
leaving any fingerprints
in Dr.
Bruckmann's office.
You're smart, Julia.
But did you know that you can
lose a hundred hairs in a day?
And that we found a hair
in the blood at the crime scene?
And I think we're gonna find out
that that hair belongs to you.
But what I don't understand
is that you haven't been
to see Dr.
Bruckmann in a year.
So, why go back now?
Did someone tell you to?
(Caligra): Did she fall
for the hair thing?
- But she's not talking.
(Leo): - She's protecting him.
(Poppy): Oh, 'cause he'd do
the same thing for her, right?
That's what we need
to convince her
that she's not special
to Idaris, that he's using her.
- So, how do we do that?
- What about Ben?
A guy like Idaris,
been bringing kids
under his power for years,
probably uses the same methods.
- And Ben knows what they are.
- Poppy, go pull him out of holding.
Tell me about Melugo,
the man who calls himself
Idaris John.
When was the first time
you saw him?
When I was 12.
Melugo led a militia
into my village.
They shot all the adults.
Some of them shooting were
even younger than I was.
Your parents?
I saw them killed.
I didn't cry,
not even when they took me
to their camp.
What happened there?
(Melugo speaking quietly)
They gave us things
to drink and to smoke
until I forgot
about where I was,
or who I was.
They told me I was a warrior,
that I didn't need family,
that they were my family.
You know, we've been talking
to your grandmother,
Julia, and, um
she didn't have
a lot of nice things to say.
She said you changed when
you started working for Idaris.
You closed off from her.
Is that true?
If she says so, it must be.
Did Idaris tell you that
you didn't need her anymore?
That he was the only family
that you needed?
She never wanted me anyway.
She also told us
that you got into drugs.
She got one of those tests,
where you send it to the lab,
and they found methamphetamine,
marijuana, ***.
Did Idaris get those for you?
You don't understand.
The first time,
Melugo put me into a room
with another boy.
A boy who had tried
to escape him.
Melugo - Idaris
he gave me a machete.
He went outside with gasoline.
He said I had 5 minutes
to come out with the boy's feet,
or he would burn us both.
As you can see, Doctor,
I have no burns.
Did he tell you
why he did that?
He told me
if I killed enough times
that I would learn not to cry,
that I would take the strength
of those who I had killed.
We also found some things
in your garden shed.
Do you know
what I'm talking about?
Animal skeletons.
Rats, squirrels
a cat.
They all looked
like they had been killed.
I don't know
what you're talking about.
Did Idaris tell you to do that?
That if you did it enough times,
you'd learn not to cry?
Did he tell you that you'd take
on the strength of those animals?
Because that's a lie, Julia,
and I think you know it.
And that's a lie that he's told
other kids in other places.
And I know that he told you
that you are special,
and you are special, Julia,
but not to him.
I deal with people
who commit crimes every day.
Some
are good people
who have done bad things,
but others
(Sigh)
Most psychiatrists don't believe
in good and evil.
But I do.
And the one thing
I have learned
is there is no great wall
between them.
If you can
step over the line
You can step back.
I know you're a good person.
And I know you wouldn't
have done these things
if it wasn't for Idaris,
But I need to hear it from you.
He told me that it was
the only way to protect him
from his enemies.
He told me
I had to kill Dr.
Bruckmann.
(Julia crying)
Surveillance said
Idaris just left his house,
went to Julia's, spoke to the grandmother,
now he's headed west on Dundas.
He's gonna make a run for it.
Probably headed to the airport.
My bet, the credit union.
If he's
gonna rabbit, he'll need money.
Les get there.
- How we doing?
Man: - He's coming out now.
(Aidan yelling)
(Aidan yelling furiously)
You recognize me now?
(Melugo coughing)
Aidan! Aidan, I got him!
I got him.
(Sirens approaching)
(Police radio chatter)
The echo to your yell
The ripple to your dive
The currents under your wave
You're Julia?
Yes.
You're frightened.
Thank you.
And I could come to visit you,
if you like.
Yeah, I would.
Come on, Julia.
It's time to go.
I could feel you
All around me
What will happen to her?
Well, she's a minor,
and Idaris' influence will be
taken into account,
so she's still got a chance
at a good life.
So do you, Ben.
That is why I escaped,
why I came here.
I haven't had the chance yet.
Ben, we've been talking
to the prosecutors.
They're going to reconsider
the charges.
But in the meantime, you're going
to have to get some counselling.
More talk.
Talking is not a weakness,
Ben; hiding is.
I'll make some arrangements to
find someone for you to talk with.
And until then, if you want to
just sit in on a group It's OK.
Uh I got it.
Aidan, you brought
a friend today.
Yeah.
Everyone,
this is Ben.
Hi, Ben.
You were a soldier?
Yes.
In the Democratic
Republic of Congo.
Yeah, Ben's just
he's just here to listen.
Well, if Ben's
going to listen, he's going
to need someone to listen to.
Does anyone have anything
to say?
Yeah.
I'll go.
Um
you know, I've been doing
better.
A lot better.
Uh but this week,
for some reason,
it's been coming back
on me, and
when I sleep
if I sleep - uh
the worst things come back.
Do you want to tell us
about the worst things, Aidan?
Well, I mean, it's nothing new.
You
guys have heard it all before.
He hasn't.
Never saw you
Never heard you
But I knew
that you were there
