Previously on The Dead Zone...
County sheriff!
Drop it...
Now!
You're the new sheriff?
Anna Turner.
Mr...
Smith. John Smith.
Resident psychic.
I was wondering when we were gonna meet.
But then I guess you already knew that, right?
What are you doing with the Bannermans' laptop?
I'm looking at sheriff Bannerman's computer
and I came across an unusual bank account.
You investigating Walt Bannerman?
I need to get back to work.
No, no! No no!
Step in front of my weapon again, and I will shoot you.
Wait a minute. You somehow think I caused this?
I think you know just enough to be dangerous.
I'm gonna do you a favor.
You ever just play a hunch?
And not arrest your ass for stalking.
You're working way too hard to try to piss me off.
It kind of makes me think you're hiding something.
Morning!
Good morning.
Okay...
knees bent, hips to the hole.
Here goes.
I don't know how you're doing it.
Just relax. Eyes on the ball, right?
All right.
I'll just relax.
Eye on the ball.
I confess, I don't get the appeal of this.
May I?
Sure.
I think the trick'sin the timing, you know?
Just nice and steady.
Okay.
Hello?
Help!
Hello?
Somebody!
That didn'tlook so steady.
You all right?
I have to find that ball.
I told you, it's a waste of time.
Which of thesewere dumped in here in the last few minutes?
No way to tell.
The tractor mixes them uplike a lotto machine.
What's so special about that one ball?
I have to find that one.
All right, come on.
It's probably still in the tractor.
The ball must have been in here at some point.
Lot's of luck.
Hello!
Help me!
Hello!
Get me out of here.
Get me out of here!
No!
Whoa there.
Dude, you all right?
Yeah, I'm better than somebody else out there.
Don't tell me there's nothing I can do.
This isn't over.
You can be sure of that.
Whatever it is, Smith, today is not a good day to ask for favors.
Telemarketers?
Old case.
What do you want?
I hate to add to all of your problems.
But I think somebody might really be in trouble.
You have to be a little more specific than that.
Well, I was at the driving range...
that can be really scary.
Plaid knickers... argyle socks.
This is gonna sound crazy, but I...
I saw a guy buried alive.
I was this man.
I experienced what he's experiencing.
In the coffin.
A coffin.
There was a skeleton in there, so I assumed it was one.
The guy was suffocating.
You're telling me that there's a guy buried alive at the golf course?
Yeah, I don't know where he is, but that's why I came here.
He was wearing a polo shirt.
I don't know, might be a golfer.
Golfer in a polo shirt.
It's like finding a baseball cap at the world series.
He was wearing a wedding band.
He had a gold watch.
He had his cell phone with him.
Now, here's the deal.
He was bleeding from a head wound.
Emmett, what did you do?
Emmett?
What?
Who's emmett?
My brother. Why?
I just saw something.
Look, I don't need you beaming into my head today, Smith, okay?
So just back off.
Yeah, sorry.
Now, are you done wasting my time or do you have a solid lead for me?
I don't have anything. Yet.
So whatwould you like me to do?
This is the only cemeteryin cleaves mills.
Be the perfect placeto look for a coffin.
Is it really necessarythat I'm here?
We might needto exhume a body.
Goodie.
IN THE BELOVING MEMORY OF HERB Smith 1938-1978 VERA Smith 1940-1997
Your parents?
Your dad dieda long time ago.
Yeah, when I was a kid.
So what are we looking for?
Freshly dug dirt.
Excuse me, sir?
Do you, uh, dig graves here?
I tend the whole grounds.
Digging gravesis just a perk.
We're looking intoa possible... wrongful burial.
Someone's in the wrong grave?
No, we think this personis still... Smith?
We were wonderinghow long someone might be ableto survive
if they were, you know, buried alive. In a coffin.
Basically.
Morbid curiosity?
Or are you some kindof magician?
No, I'm no magician.
I suppose if he could dig sideways and get into the plot next door to him...
a man might be able to find enough airto breathe to live for a while.
And what if he can't?
All he's got to breatheis the air in his coffin?
He'd be a goner.
Faint from asphyxiationpretty quick.
Dehydration.
And even if you didrevive him, he'd probablybe brain damaged.
Be like a zombie.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Thanks forgetting back to me.
There's something I need.
But I'd rather notgo through the department.
Yeah.
Look, let me call you backin ten.
You sure you're notworking anything dangerous?
I'm the sheriff, John. Every day's dangerous.
What happened to me?
I don't know.
All right, well, I work at a bingo booth.
How dangerous can that be?
Walt, we needto take this seriously.
John, after allwe've been through, I do take this seriously.
But I can alsotake care of myself, you know.
today you have no choice.
I'm sticking to you closelike glue.
Walt Bannerman.
Can't seem to escape him.
I have more paperworkon my desk about him than anyone else.
You have your suspicionsabout Walt, huh?
It's none of your business.
Excuse me, it is my business.
Sheriff, let meexplain something to you.
This guy was a hero in this town.
And if you knew thatabout him,
you wouldn't be takingthese allegations so seriously.
Emotions have a habitof blinding one to the truth.
Walt was an honest man.
Says his best friend.
You know what, I'm just wondering something.
All that paper work about Walt on your desk,
does any of it prove thathe was actually into something?
I'm not gonna talk to youabout an ongoing investigation.
You know what I don't get?
You'll run arounda cemetery looking for somebody who's buried alive based on a visionthat I had,
but when I tell youthat Walt was not a criminal based on actual proof, you don't believe me.
What proof?
Well, that's admissible.
Well, let me lookat your files. Maybe I can help.
Okay, stop.
Look, I getthat he was your best friend.
But how about seeing thisfrom my perspective?
I moved up hereto get a fresh start, and what do I get?
This messdumped in my lap the moment I arrive.
You think I wanted my first investigation to be looking into my predecessor who was killedin the line of duty?
You think I get any respectfrom the deputies who served him?
Trust me, if you had actual proof that this entire investigation was a huge waste of time and resources,
I'd love to have it.
Because I could close this caseand move on.
All right, I'll make you a deal, Smith.
You want me to keeppaying attention to your visions?
You don't bring up Walt Bannerman's innocenceagain, unless you can prove it.
I think we shouldcheck the cemeteries in the neighboring towns, you know?
Or at leastrun a missing persons report.
Which is really hard to dowhen I don't even know who I'm looking for.
- Sheriff. - Johnny, we don't have a case.
Face it, the search is a dead end.
- Pun intended. - I can't just drop this.
Look, when you have somethingto investigate, you know where I am.
In the meantime, find yourselfanother nancy drew to playwith your joe hardy.
Please.
Let me out of here!
Help me!
I can make it rightwith deitz, please!
Let me out of here!
I can make it right!
I can make it right.
Are you okay?
The guy in the coffin.
He's running out of air.
Look, look, you should take it easy.
This is getting a little weird, even for you.
I could feelthis guy dying.
And I couldn't do anythingabout it.
You knowwhat that feels like?
Yeah. Yeah, I do.
Something on this boardtriggered a vision.
Who are these people?
Armed robbery, assault, C.C.W.
What are you thinking?
In the visionI was yelling the name of someone-some guynamed deitz.
He's gotta be connectedto the guy that's buried, right?
Deitz.
What?
Jack deitz, loan shark, gambling.
Small time, mostly.
Lately he's beenbranching out.
Getting involvedwith bigger fish in other cities.
Small-time bookie.
Well fundedand armed with mob ties.
Could becomea real danger in a hurry.
Addresses, associates?
You got the man'sblood type in here?
He's been on my radar.
I haven't hadanything specific to tie him to until now.
Something specificfrom a psychic.
Involvementin a possible homicide.
I don't have to sayit came from, you know, you.
Oh, now you're a believer?
Hardly.
Turner.
That's not good enough.
Last knownand I need a confirmation.
Well, keep looking.
- Something wrong? - I'm fine.
You done with that?
Wow! He flew!
The bird's got wings, man!
What did you do?
Birdy's got wings?
What did you say?
Not to pryinto your business or anything,
but there's usually a reasonfor the visions that I get.
Something about that callyou got earlier.
I told you, an old case.
I can actually worktwo things at once.
Can I help?
Yeah, stay on taskand stay out of my business.
Hey.
deitz!
Oh, sheriff Turner.
Welcome back.
You know, if you're gonna pay mesuch regular visits,
the least you could dois throw a little something my way.
We got a great dealon business cards right now.
Spare me, deitz.
Maybe it's wedding invitations you need.
Look, you're wasting my time.
Now, I've got a sourcetelling me that you've dumped a bodyin a shallow grave.
Trouble is, he's still alive.
Sheriff, I don't knowwhat you're talking about.
Got a witness.
He mustneed his eyes checked.
you know... the longer I do this job,
the easier it is for me to tellwhen somebody's lying to me.
Sheriff, you knowwhat I'm gonna do for you?
Give me a coupon.
That's 20% off.
You're just making thisharder for yourself, long term.
Sheriff, you never knowwhen this might come in handy.
You never knowwhen I might need a fingerprint.
Look, that was notproductive!
I told you, the guy's teflon.
No, I meant you.
What do you mean, me?
Look, you justused what I said to go in thereand harass that guy.
We didn't get anywhere.
You know, Smith...
I don't even knowwhy I'm here.
I've got better thingsto do today, believe me.
Look, I can't help what I see.
So what is the dealwith emmett and the bird guy?
You know, why don't youjust worry about your guy in the box?
555-0129.
What is that?
The guy in the coffin. It's his phone number.
Look, can you runa reverse trace on this and get me a name?
Yeah, that shouldn'ttake the techs too long.
Good. 'Cause I saw the date andthe time on this guy's phone.
This is gonna happen todayaround 4:00.
You mean he's not evenin the coffin yet?
All I knowis in a few hours this guy's gonnabe down there.
He's gonnabe running out of air.
Okay, so you see thingsin the future and then catch upto them in real life?
Sometimes. SometimesI see the past.
I wishthis gift of yours came with a rule book.
Tell me about it.
You surethis is the right place?
According to that trace, the number was issuedby vanguard realty.
Somebody left in a hurry.
More like breakingand entering.
At leastwe're in the right place.
How do you know that?
That's the ring and the watchfrom the coffin.
This must be the guyI've been seeing buried alive.
Get the techs over hereas soon as possible.
Thanks.
I've seen these before.
that flier was on the bulletin board at the station.
This mustbe what gave me the-
Help me!
Train tracks.
This guy's buriedin the train tracks.
There are railroad trackspretty much across all of cleaves mills.
Who are you?
Sheriff Turner. Who are you?
Sheriff.
Matt mckenzie.
Call me mack.
I own vanguard realty.
This is Johnny Smith.
He's helping me out with an investigation.
Oh, you're the psychic from cleaves mills, right?
This your office, mack?
Yeah, mine and my partners'.
You have some troublehere today?
Yeah, a break-in.
Did you report it?
No, no, not yet.
Why not?
You've hadsome real damage.
Yeah, I know, but it's a little crazy here today.
My partner and ihave a big deal closing.
This your partner?
Yeah. Yeah, that's jesse.
When was the last timeyou saw him?
He's been M.I.A.All day,
which is a little odd consideringwe've got this deal closing.
Should I be worried, or...
can you tell meabout these fliers?
We've been posting thoseall over town.
That's where our land is.
Some foreign investorsare gonna build condos on it around the golf course.
Deal's closingat 5:00 today.
Look, what aren't you guys telling me here?
Mr. Mckenzie, I had a vision about your partner.
Being trapped underground.
I think he's buried alive.
You sure you gotthe right idea about this?
Look, I don't have a lotof time for this right now.
What do you knowabout jack deitz?
Deitz?
All right.
Okay, my partner has debts.
Last year we thought the deal wasn't gonna go through.
Freaked jesse out.
Freaked him out how?
He's into it big time with this guy deitz.
Jesse's desperate for cashto pay this guy off.
So dietz's peopletrashed this place.
Yeah, a warning.
Can you believe it?
He said next timethey're gonna burn it down.
Interesting.
Looks like I oweour friend deitz another visit.
Hey!
You! Where is he?
He ain't here.
Listen up.
Conspiracy. Obstructionof a police investigation.
Aiding and abetting.
Shall I continue?
He just took off.
He didn't say where.
Do better than that.
Try the fireside lounge.
He just went golfing.
That's what he'd always dowhen he wanted to blow off some steam.
So beth, what was he upset about?
He wouldn't say.
I'm sure it wasabout the deal.
Mack, what's going on?
It's okay.
Johnny and I are just trying to find out where jesse is.
Well, I knewsomething was wrong because he alwayscalls me after practicing,
but I didn'twant to bother him.
If something'shappened to him...
hey hey hey, you don't worry.
We're gonna find him, all right?
Beth, do you mindif I look around?
No, go ahead.
I'm gonna make some coffee.
Here, let me do that.
No, I- it's okay.
Beth's life is overif something happened to jesse.
Newlyweds, you said?
Yeah, six months.
They met at a party.
He was walking into wallsfor weeks after that night.
You never sawa happier bride and groom.
So you really get visionstouching people's stuff, huh?
That's how I found you, mack.
Johnny, if you see anythingabout his gambling,
maybe you shouldn'tsay anything to beth about it.
I think she's worried enoughas it is.
I'll be happyif I see anything.
Oh, god.
Please.
Please!
What's the matter, you see something?
I think someone'strying to dig him out.
Jesse? Who?
I couldn't tell.
I heard bells.
They soundedreally familiar to me.
Like...
like the bellsof st. Mary's.
Which is in gossamer bay, right?
Yeah, st. Mary'sis on the north border of the golf course.
Is there a trainthat runs through that property?
Yeah, one runs throughevery hour, why?
I think he's buriedon your land.
I'll be backin 20 minutes.
Sheriff Turner.
Pleasant surprise.
I have some questionsfor you, deitz.
Ah, well, ask away.
But let's move over here.
I don't look so good against the blueand the white.
there's st. Mary's.
Train tracksrun along there.
There's the final acrewe were clearing for the investors.
Hey sheriff, it's John.
Listen, I'm at the propertyright now with mack.
I think jesse's buried here.
Call as soon as you can.
Those look like coffins.
Yeah.
some sort of burial ground?
We were as surprisedas you are when we found 'em.
Must have beena family plot in the 1800's.
They could bepenobscot indians here.
Does that look likefreshly packed dirt to you?
what do we do?
Start digging.
It's 4:00.
Yeah.
We've caught upto my vision.
What?
I saw usdigging him up.
Been behind my visionsuntil now.
He's in here, mack. He's in here
- Okay, deitz, where is he? - Who?
The guy you buried.
Are we still on that kick, sheriff?
Cooperateand I'll ease off.
Sheriff, am I being charged here?
Because as I see it, you don't have anything.
And that's embarrassingfor you.
But we wouldn't wantpeople to start thinking you're incompetent, would we?
Explain something to me.
A guy owes you money, so you bury him?
He can't pay you backif he's dead.
Or maybe jessehad something on you that wo- uld make your life easierif he disappeared.
Jesse's neverowed me anything.
- I found a crowbar. - great
No! No no!
it's you.
You're good.
But stilla little bit behind.
it's no use.
Don't tell the new owners about the graves?
You're not serious?
Yeah, I am.
Guys like deitzdon't take rain checks, jesse.
This isn't about your debt.
There are people buried here.
They're dead people!
Who cares?
I do. I do.
I'm not ruining my reputationover you.
I'm calling off the deal.
All right, stay with me, man.
Beth.
You're gonna see her again.
Just hang on, all right?
Mack called you to tip you offthat I was coming.
Well, that's be an awfulincriminating thing for me to just volunteer, wouldn't it?
hey sheriff, it's John.
Listen, I'm at the property with mack.
I think jesse's buried here.
Call as soon as you can.
Come on, Smith.
Dig sideways.
Hang in there.
Good. This is good.
Beth.
No, we're getting out of here.
We're getting out of here!
This is good. This is good.
Smith?
Smith, can you hear me?
Down here!
We're running out of air!
Down here!
Hang on, jesse, all right?
You're gonna see beth today.
Hang on.
Here.
You're all right.
Come on.
Give me your hand.
Just breath normally, all right?
You all right?
We're hearing that mackleft first national bank about 35 minutes ago.
The transfer went through?
He took everything?
I'm afraidhe cashed out a payment for $3 million.
I'm sorry.
2.5 he wiredto an offshore account in the caymans.
The other half milhe took with him.
That's a lot of cashto carry.
Unless you're gonnapay somebody off with it.
A bookie, huh?
Don't you worry.
I got it all right here.
You just tell mewe're square,
and I'm onthe next ferry to canada.
Well, happy trails.
Pleasure doing businesswith you.
Police, freeze!
I had a feeling I wasn'tdone with you today, deitz.
This has officiallybecome harassment, sheriff.
What is it now?
How about racketeering, to start?
PENOBSCOT COUNTY SHERIFF
150th street.
Got it.
I owe you one for this.
JAMAICA AVE IMPORT/EXPORT
All right, you're all set.
I don't know what we'd doif it weren't for you.
Thank you.
It was a team effort, right?
Sheriff...
my wife and iwAnna thank you for everything.
Anytime.
Excuse me, I've gotsomething to do.
She doesn't look very happy.
Yeah. Well, just-
it wasa long day for everybody.
You both take care.
Man, you must have madegood time on the 1-95.
What are you doing here?
I'm trying to stop youfrom doing something stupid.
You can fly, man!
I can see your wings!
Yeah?
Fly like a monkey, man!
Emmett!
Hey, sis.
That bird's got wings, man!
Like a bird!
No!
Emmett fell off the roof.
Anyone ever tell you you're onefreaky son of a bitch?
It was an accident.
Emmett's deadbecause of me.
Ronnie goaded him into it.
Ronnie shouldn'thave even been there.
I don't understand.
Ronnie'sfrom the neighborhood.
I found drugs on him.
He gotall weepy with me, so I cut him a break.
He sworehe'd go straight.
Three weeks later I came home and I found him up on the roof with emmett,
wasted out of their minds.
Obviously, you saw the rest.
So ronnie just walked?
I busted him on possession with intent to deal.
He was supposedto get five years, but...
the phone call you got yesterday.
They let him out?
Time offfor good behavior.
How's that for a laugh?
If I'd nailed himthe first time,
he never would havegiven emmett those drugs.
I had a chance to save him, but I couldn't.
I couldn't save Walt, so.
You didn't haveany warning signs beforehand.
Actually, I did.
I had a vision that he wasgonna die that day.
How do you live with that?
I'm stilltrying to figure it out.
I guessthose weren't the lives we were supposedto save today.
Today was jesse.
Anne, you saved my life.
I'm justtrying to help you.
So I do nothing.
Listen, I know you don'twAnna talk about emmett,
but you can talk to meabout it if you want to.
This doesn't make us friends, you know.
All right.
Doesn't meanI can't buy you a cup of coffee, though, right?
Yeah, well, it is a long drive back.
