Where is the old man? You can't do this to me! I don't care who you are-- do you hear me! Now, i wanna get back to new york.
Well, that's not possible-- There is no new york-- there's only the village.
(man, on tv) look, we've been here before.
it all feels too familiar-- i know that.
truly, we live for today.
This is my home? (man) we must be doing something right.
No, i mean (man, on tv) you can't escape it.
My apartment in-- done in your other life.
This is where you belong.
(reporter) we interrupt this programming for the following public-- (man) will you just, uh, sign this to say that everything's in order? I'm signin' nothin', pal.
(reporter) the palais today identified the missing villager as 93, a man in his late 70's, last seen heading north into the desert two nights ago.
93 is well known to hospital staff following a history of stage seven mental unwellness.
he also suffers from shortness of breath, dizzy spells and a weak heart.
but we wish him well and hope to report his discovery eminently if not sooner.
(door bell clangs) Hey! What can i do you for? I'd like to buy a map.
Hmm street or topographic? Biggest one you got.
That's the biggest? Pull her out.
That's it! Buy one, get one free.
What the hell would i want with two maps? Makes a perfect gift.
Big enough for ya? Here we are You are here.
That's the palais two.
"wow" being the appropriate word.
and that's the clinic and-- Where's the road outta here? (chuckling) ohh-- you crack me up, six.
You've not seen me before.
(chuckles) no, sir.
you, i would remember.
But you know my-- welcome to the village.
Everybody knows everybody! Be seein' ya! (313) six! Six, wait! Why are you calling me that? (313) well, i think that it suits you.
Six hmm, i like it.
Six, where do you think you're going? Goin' home.
You won't get far.
Is there nothing can say that will make you wait? you can tell me the truth.
What the hell is this place? You're one of us.
That's the truth.
Wha-- hey! Aw, man, not my car-- come on! (downtown traffic hustle and bustle) Do you think i could use your phone? Mine's just been stolen.
Yeah.
Go ahead.
(dialing) Actually, i lied.
I lost it.
I'm always losing my phone.
(sighing) i hate leaving messages-- don't you? i noticed you, 'cause you look like you're waiting for someone.
Maybe, i am.
Who you waitin' for? Don't answer that.
i'm late again.
(radio announcer) traffic the same on the g.
w.
as the jersey turnpike.
it's hell on four wheels out there.
so, if you want my advice-- get off your butt and walk! total gridlock from some kind of gas explosion in the heart of brooklyn.
Hey! (laughing) you got my phone.
Oh! Um, i'd say, "sorry" but i promised myself I'd stop apologizing to men.
Having a party? Yeah, you wanna come? ah Can't make it tonight.
Oh There's no party, anyway.
Ah, just what i thought "drinking alone.
" I'm celebrating.
Oh, yeah-- what? Ah You were talking to someone.
You shouldn't listen to other people's conversations.
It's rude.
How come you're interested in my life back there, If it doesn't exist? Of course, i'm interested.
I want to help you with these delusions.
I can't leave here, can i? Why would you want to leave? why would you even think such a thing? All right, doctor.
My delusion is, i met a woman the other night And i invited her back to my apartment.
Did she come back To your apartment? I don't know.
I don't know.
(147) what's that? I haven't opened it, yet.
It's from the clinic.
What's it say? We've been summoned, to the clinic.
What for? An appointment, with two.
Oh, dear! It says someone else here at the bottom.
So, this guy at the hospital.
he wants to know where 93's body is.
Why? That's not a delusion.
That's happening here, right now.
If you did see 93.
Is that why they set me free, to let you loose on me? the caring, sharing doctor, With the big beautiful eyes and the nice, girly smile.
Soften me up-- get me to talk? Of course, you doubt me.
You doubt everything, But that's not you speaking, six.
That's your condition.
my condition is that i'm being held here Against my will.
(bus driver) cabins 29 to 63.
yellow district-- cabins 309 to 357.
green district-- apartments 51 to 299.
Can you see, six, How i might wonder why you are here, If, as you claim, "you know nothing about 93?" I came here to find out who this man, 93, is.
Now that you're here Do you see what he was? A drunk.
A fool.
Maybe he drank, Because he found the lie of this place unbearable.
he knew what i know.
The village is not all that there is.
What is it you're suggesting? A hole in the sky, Aliens landing secretly in the night, Mysterious roads that lead beyond, beyond, beyond.
A magic gateway, perhaps? Some portal leading into "never-never land.
" (chuckling) Take a look outside, six.
People going about their lives, Strolling in the sun, sitting together in the park, Or anywhere where they might choose to sit together.
They take a scooter ride, go dancing, Enjoy a beer in the cafe, While they gaze about the village.
Contented.
hopeful.
every day above ground is a good day.
The problem is in your mind.
Well i want out.
You've tried that! There is no "out.
" (chuckling) There is only "in.
" Now, you can go on tormenting yourself, If that's what you want, Or you can stop.
If 93 were no more than a drunk, A fool, as you say, Then why were they chasing after him? Shooting at him? Because 93 found something, And if he can do it, i can.
I pity you, six.
You refuse to open your mind to the possibility That you're wrong.
If i open my mind, You'll take it away from me.
We might But we will always give it back.
Did 93 show you this-- i need to know.
Did he talk to you about this? Are there other drawings? 554, please.
93 must've trusted you.
There has to be a reason he told me to come to you.
What is this-- what does this do? I'm going to meet my boyfriend.
I'm sorry.
please, help me.
please.
93 said, "the drawings were from his other life "before the village.
" That's all i know.
You have to leave me alone, now.
(clock ticking) (sighing deeply) (clock chimes) (two clearing throat) And you are here to receive a medal For services to the village, And you should keep the medal with you, At all times.
And when you met number six, What did you make of him? He was a little strange.
A-a-actually-- nope.
Number six has been dealt with, So he is no longer a worry to us.
And there was another thing, in the summons.
Uh, yeah, it said, uh, "to bring cake, with cherries in it.
" Did you? Uh, yeah-- yeah.
Oh, no-- leave it there.
(two) "my dear villagers, perhaps two could interrupt your day in the sun to relate the grave news that we have discovered number 93's body in the mountains.
sadly, the old man had succumbed to a weak heart.
he spoke briefly to emergency staff, before dying on route to the hospital.
his last words were to honor the village, and request the anthem be sung in his name.
If you tell me what you know, I promise you, i won't come back.
(two) breathe in, breath out village life goes on.
Do you want, uh, something to drink? 93 was convinced that his dreams meant That he had another life, before this one.
he started saying things-- "that we're prisoners here.
" Prisoners? I've said too much.
I-i don't even know who you are.
It's okay-- you can trust me.
i am not one of them.
I dream this, all the time.
What is it? This is more real, than anything out there.
This is the first bit of hope i've been given, Since i got here.
If there are others like us, who dream, and they got to thinking that 93 escaped, then-- do you think there are others? Do you? Are you for real? I promise you-- you're safe with me.
i'll see you at the cafe tomorrow.
(woman singing opera) What is it, 11-12? Why is six so convinced there is another place? Because for people like six, life is not enough.
The simple life They want to escape it.
What are you doing here? Oh, i'm trying to find out what you're doin' here.
Do something for me, will ya? Lie down beside me.
(chuckles) uh, you're supposed to be trying To convince me you're sane.
Come on.
Uh, okay.
Right.
A hundred billion stars, Over and over billions of galaxies, and that's just what we can see.
Can you honestly tell me That the village is all that there is? Of course not.
Has to be life out there somewhere.
Perhaps, another village.
Oh, it's, um, 400 billion, By the way.
Look at me.
Isaac newton, galileo, Plato, socrates, Karl marx, groucho marx, Darwin-- surely, darwin.
kennedy, bob dylan, david beckam.
Who invented the telephone? Oh, uh, uh Alexander graham bell-- the light bulb? Everyone says it was thomas edison.
It was joseph swan.
where do these names come from-- these memories? I was taught this stuff by a lady named mrs.
radcliff, My teacher.
Now, where does that come from? now, tell me about mrs.
radcliff.
you're humoring me.
(giggling) tell me, anyway.
Okay, she had a big blue nose, Skin like a crocodile.
She actually looked more like a man in a dress.
Not just a man, but a boxer.
Wow! I like her, already.
Do you know what a crocodile is? Are you trying to trap me? Yes-- no.
Yes.
Yes yes.
are you trying to trap me? no.
Tell me about the woman.
I resigned today.
Oh, that's why you're celebrating.
Alone.
Too bad.
Um, i go this way.
Oh! Really? Really.
Uh, what's your name? Lucy.
Lucy.
Well, i'd like to get to know you, lucy.
Well, maybe you can.
Well, i'd like to get to know you, tonight.
Well, maybe you can.
(gasping) maybe, you can.
take your burden to the lord and leave it there if you trust and never doubt it will surely bring you out take your burden to the lord and leave it there What's goin' on? You know what it is, six.
93 deserves a decent burial.
You didn't find his body.
93 is gone-- escaped.
Found the way out.
If 93 found the way out, Six can convince himself that there is an out.
Six must try to escape, because six knows, There is nothing to escape from.
In his mind, in is soul, Six knows that six is six.
(church bell ringing) (woman sobbing) Hey, man-- need a cab? Why would i need a cab, if i'm going into a cafe? Well, you know, people who go into cafes, Come outta cafes, And sometimes, they might need a cab.
Well, i don't know, if i'll need a cab.
Why you hassling me, anyway? hey, six I like ya-- you're a likable man.
And i like giving rides in my cab to people i like.
Sometimes, being nice is, uh, Well, it's just being nice.

I pity you, six.
You refuse to open your mind to the possibility That you're wrong.
If i open my mind, You'll take it away from me.
We might But we will always give it back.
Did 93 show you this-- i need to know.
Did he talk to you about this? Are there other drawings? 554, please.
