Pain exists in two forms: exterior, that which is caused by forces we can't control, and interior, which we can both, though can be managed through will. I know I've researched the techniques: breathing control, hypnosis. What of the spiritual nature have you researched that as well?

The interior is something you deny. No, it's something I manage. Do you... Does that hurt, Cassandra? It feels like being caught in the rain, an annoyance. Does it scar, Bruce? What pain doesn't? Pain cannot be overcome, no, but it can be put in its place.

That place is where pain can work for you. Pain doesn't work for you, you work through pain, Bruce. After all these months, haven't you learned? Why don't you leave? Why? Because this is where I belong. In your life, isn't there such a place?

Uh [Music] Cassandra, are you... You need to leave. What? I just saved you from nothing, Bruce. Like the Fakies, they would have grown tired of their game, they would have left on their own. You, though, must be sent away. It's time.

You've learned what you wanted to, haven't you? Yes, I have. Then go. Thank you. You shouldn't thank me, Bruce. I failed you. [Music] You came asking for help in dealing with your pain, but your pain is beyond my abilities, perhaps yours as well. For your pain

is leading you down a path you desire. Sir, give me your hand. I... I can't.
