You're very kind
but you don't lie very well.

:52:05
- So, you were trained by Dr Nix?
- I took my residency with him.

:52:09
- Why him?
- Because he was the best.

:52:11
I was interested in his work
on multiple personalities.

:52:14
We wrote a book together
based on one of his patients.

:52:18
In the book, we called him Cain.
:52:20
- Three Faces Of Cain or something?
- He had many more faces than that.

:52:24
Down here.
So, what was the book called?

:52:27
Raising Cain:
The Creation And Evolution

:52:30
Of The Multiple Personality.
:52:32
It was a bestseller.
They even made a TV movie out of it.

:52:37
I heard he made quite a lot of money.
:52:40
I wouldn't have it.
I had my name removed from the book.

:52:43
- Why?
- I didn't want that kind of money.

:52:47
What kind of money was that?
:52:49
Money profited
off the misfortune of another.

:52:52
You still wrote the book.
:52:54
I didn't know all the circumstances
surrounding the case.

:52:57
- What were they? This way.
- Yes. Let me explain.

:53:01
All multiple personality patients,
regardless of their background,

:53:05
seem to share
certain childhood traumas.

:53:08
Then the original personality
splinters into others.

:53:12
For instance,
if a boy is molested by his mother

:53:15
or abused by his father,
the original...

:53:19
Ah.
:53:22
The original personality
forgets it ever happened.

:53:25
How could his loving parent
do such a terrible thing?

:53:29
And he creates
an alternate personality.

:53:32
This becomes the person
it happened to.

:53:35
He is the one who suffers the pain
for all the rest.

:53:38
Hm, you do something bad,
the other personality takes the rap.

:53:43
Very convenient.
:53:44
It is not a psychological state
one wishes to acquire.

:53:48
With each trauma
there may be another personality.

:53:51
Soon scores of them
are running around inside your head,

:53:55
squabbling amongst themselves as to
which one controls the consciousness.

:53:59
Only one personality can control
the consciousness at one time.
