(KEYCARD SWIPING) (DOOR UNLOCKS, OPENS) (BREATH QUIVERING) (TV SWITCHES ON) (TV PLAYING) (TV SWITCHES OFF) (BREATHING HEAVILY) I had this old dog, and the same thing happened to him. He got real fat. We tried cutting back on his food, but he just got bigger and bigger. Pretty soon we had to roll
him around in a wheelbarrow. He loved to chase
after squirrels, that dog. Wasn’t chasing much after that. Are you concerned about your weight? It doesn’t help that I
can still see park benches with my fa
ce on them, the ones they haven’t trashed yet, looking about 50 pounds lighter. Those are only two years old. Well, I don’t see it, but weight gain is a side effect of the medication. Anyway, that’s not what it’s about. It’s about what I can’t do. I’m a social creature.
I need human contact. Nobody says you can’t
have human contact, Arthur. Have you tried? (SIGHS) I’ve tried. I’ve tried those dating services online... Women, and men. They don’t want them old and... They like them young and... An
d tight. Okay, let’s talk about something different. I’m trying to tell you about... I don’t want to trigger you. Trigger me? I’m not a gun... Not loaded, anyway, and you see that’s the problem, doctor. There are other ways to have
a relationship with someone. Friendship, for example. Who’s going to want to be friends with me? -The world is changing. -(SCOFFS) There people who
sympathize with your situation. “For me the world is just the world. A stage where everyone has a part to play. And mine
a sad one.” Do you feel hard done by? No. No... I take responsibility But I don’t accept that
I should have to suffer for the rest of my days. Should I? You shouldn’t have to suffer But I can’t adjust your medication. There are regulations. If I take you off, they’ll send you back. No, no! I’m not going back! I’m sorry, doctor, I can’t... I can’t... I can’t live in a world without love. Then maybe you’ll have to try harder. Maybe I should take
the toaster in the bath. I’m sorry, doctor... I can
’t go back there. ♪♪ ARTHUR: It looks real. WENDELL: Hey, I’m a professional. What about the... Yeah, that’s real too. Impressive, isn’t it? Why don't you take a whiff? Come on, take a whiff. Come on, go ahead. We need to know whether you think it smells like the real thing. It's for science. Science? Yeah. Go on, it’s okay. You’re not going to get
into any trouble or anything. (SNIFFS) (MOANS) (BREATH QUIVERING) How did you do that? I bet you’d like to know, you sick fuck. -(DR. CARROLL CLEARIN
G
THROAT) -(WENDELL CHUCKLING) We extracted samples from a few live ones. ARTHUR: What’s the point of this, doctor? It will give you a chance
to have what you want. Why give me that? Because we think it will help you. And it may help others
who don’t like the options they’ve been given. Are you making money off of these? No... it's not... A small percentage. I've invested money in
this because I believe in it. You have a disease and this is a treatment like any other. And we want to see if it wo
rks. And you designed this? WENDELL: Used to work
in the business in L.A. before I got into the
medical supply racket. I’d like to think I’m returning to my roots. You’ve done a good job. I mean, does it feel... (GASPS) Don’t fucking touch it. (BREATHING HEAVILY) (GULPS) What the fuck is he doing? He thinks it’s a trick. (GROANS) WENDELL: Ugh, how can you watch this? DR. CAROLL: I’m observing
the results of an experiment. Feels like I’m watching
a kiddie porn I produced. Makes me sick. DR. CARRO
LL: You can leave. No, no, no. I need to see this. I need to know this works. I need to know I’m
doing the right thing here. We are. Yeah, forgive me if your
words are little comfort. You got skin in the game, just like me. Hard not to affect your
professional judgment. Would you rather these
people spend their lives in jail? To be raped and beaten?
Or chemically castrated? You think they deserve better? That’s the problem with
you bleeding heart liberals. You took it too far. Thought
people lik
e him deserved rights. Thank you, Mr. Carmody. You’re a real salesman. I was in sales once. Well, real estate. But you understand people. Even people like me. Most want me to suffer my whole life because they think that I’m a...
a monster. That I deserve this. “It is easy for the one who stands outside
the prison wall of pain to exhort and teach the one who suffers.” What’s that from? A Greek play, Prometheus Bound. I used to teach youth community
theatre in my spare time. Brought a little cultu
re
to the neighborhood. What the fuck are you writing?
Something for your book? I want to help people, Mr. Carmody. Just like you. And your doll... Don’t you fucking say that! It’s not my doll, okay? Okay?! It’s his! For sick fucks like him. (ARTHUR CRYING) ARTHUR: A Greek play, Prometheus Bound. I used to teach youth community
theatre in my spare time. Brought a little culture
to the neighborhood. Right. Hey, do you know how they
separate the men from the boys in Greece? With a crowbar. Greek p
lays? Late rehearsals? Impressionable kids from fucked up homes, desperate for someone to look up to, and you think you’re the one
who suffers? That you’re the victim. Well, you’re not. I’m not doing this to help you. I’m doing it to keep kids safe
from pieces of shit like you. You know, people were against
safe injection sites at first. If there’s a chance to help
these people by letting them express themselves in a
controlled environment, then maybe they’ll be less likely to seek
out their des
ires on their own. Yeah, well you don’t have kids. Now... If you get off on this, then I can with live it, because I know if you’re
fucking one of these things, you ain’t fucking one of my kids. (GROANS) WENDELL: I’m going to fucking kill him! -Stop, Wendell! -Get out of my way! - Get out of my fucking way!
- (DR. CARROLL SCREAMS) (DR. CARROLL WHIMPERING) Oh, fuck! Hey... Hey, I’m sorry. Don’t touch me! Don’t touch me! It's okay. Hey, I’m just
trying to help you out! Get off of me! -(WENDELL GRU
NTING) -(DR. CARROLL GASPING) (DR. CARROLL CHOKING) (GASPING) Oh, fuck! (GRUNTING) (ARTHUR CRYING) Do you want him? Then take him. Go! Go, it’s okay. It’s okay. (CHILDREN PLAYING ECHOING) ♪♪
