57.
Followed by the word: Recall Four IMAGES cycle slowly: A green apple... A coiled snake... A pistol... and a rusted red wagon... Reece stares at them, confused. Never squeezing the remote. INT. MRI TECH ROOM -- SAME O’Halloran and the Tech sit in a small control room. The doctor studies a live image of Reece’s brain. DR. O’HALLORAN This guy’s pretty progressed... (to the Tech) Load up the full test. See if he improves with less latency. INT. MRI TUBE -- SAME Reece blinks, staring at the blank screen. DR. O’HALLORAN (OVER THE SPEAKERS) Just squeeze the remote on instinct. Another countdown and a SECOND SERIES of RAPID FIRE images: Cheerleaders at a High School Football Game... A Child Mourns at a Funeral... They’re so fast they almost blur together... Recall Again, time slows. Again, the recall images don’t match up... Reece BREATHES faster, feeling like he’s failing the test... A third wave of imagery... The Empire State Building... A plane hits the Towers on 9/11... and HOLY SHIT, did Reece just see an image of DONNY MITCHELL’S HEAD IN A HELMET?... Recall Try not to think too hard, Commander. The sequences will come faster now. REECE Faster?... Great. DR. O’HALLORAN (OVER THE SPEAKERS) Four simple mundane unrelated photos, including... A kite on a clear day... a homeless man wearing one shoe... AND A DEAD STARLING RESTING ON A PATIO (NOTE: this image matches exactly what Reece saw in his opening nightmare)...
