SSonia
[to Harrison] Can you say "Bye-Bye daddy?"
HHarrison
Die-Die.
SSonia
Did you hear that?
He said "Die-Die".
SSonia
Don´t be silly. he said "Bye-Bye". Harrison´s first words. He´s a good boy.
[voiceover] I hope so.
[voiceover] Lumen didn't witness her mother's murder, but she was born in blood like me. Some experiences are so big they change your DNA.
I remember your first words: shoes. You were very girly once upon a time.
That's funny. I always remember my first words as being, 'Hurry the fuck up.'
What in the mother of fuck went on in here?
I know exactly what happened. Two words: autoerotic mummification. See, Mr. Plastic Man shot Captain Bloody Underpants while Underpants was in the choke.
Why do you have that in your purse?
It's not a purse.
I know you. What you are, deep down. Aside from your police job and your "extracurricular activities". You're a father. I saw the pictures out there. Three children?
The two oldest are with their grandparents. Their dad's mom and dad.
You have a son?
Harrison. He just started talking, today. He's tremendous.
It's just the two of you?
And an Irish superhero nanny. I never thought my life would turn out like this.
I had imagined a totally different life for myself too. I always did everything by the book, you know? Go, go, go. I never stopped to think. There was high school, and college, and graduate school. Owen. We were gonna get married at the house that I grew up in. On my wedding day I, I tried on the dress, and I looked at the window in the backyard where the aisle was, and I saw everything that that aisle was leading to. Babies, and matching dinnerware. Sunday barbecues. And I couldn't breathe. I had to get out of there, and find something ... more. Then, everything happened, and [pause] I actually thought "This is what I get. For trying to live my own life." Do you have any idea what I'm talking about?
[quietly] A little.
But tonight, I felt this like, this... peace. And it's because he's dead. [Pause, and then painfully] And I know that it's not gonna last. And when it wears of, I'm gonna have to find the rest of them. [tearfully] Because that's the only way that I'll find that peace again. I don't even have a name for what I'm feeling.
[voiceover] I do. The Dark Passenger. I can't get revenge for Rita's death, but I can help Lumen avenge what was done to her. [Pause, and then aloud] How many more were there?
Any idea where you want to live? I'm sorry. That was a stupid question. You should take the apartment.
No. No, that's yours.
No, I insist. It's really always been yours.
The night that I was taken, I had gone to a bar. I thought that they spotted me there, so I went back to that same bar night after night, hoping that one of them would walk through the door. I wore a disguise.
Disguise?
A wig, so they wouldn't recognize me.
I know what a disguise is for. So, you went to the bar, you waited for one of them to show up. Where? What bar?
Hurricane 26.
Hurricane 26 is all the way over on Ocean Avenue. How'd you get all the way out here?
That's what I've been trying to tell you.
So, go on.
Tonight one of them showed up. He didn't know it was me, so I...I flirted with him. I asked him if he wanted to go someplace else. We got in the car, I pulled out my gun, and I forced him to drive. This place seemed deserted, so we stopped, and I marched him inside.
And you shot him.
No. I asked him for the names of the other men. He called me a cunt. Then I shot him.
