Changes: The Incurables

Revision as of 18:53, 10 January 2020

"The Incurables" is the thirteenth episode of the eighth season of the Murdoch Mysteries and the one hundred-ninth episode of the series. It first aired February 9, 2015.

Summary

Detective Murdoch investigates the death of Nurse Collins who has been killed at the asylum where Dr. Ogden works.

Somehow, the extremely violent patient Rose Maxwell managed to get out of her room and knock out the guard, Samuel Drainie. It appears she then used his knife to stab Nurse Collins – 11 times and there are also bite marks on the victims body. The possible motive: convicted murderer Rose blames Dr. Ogden and Dr. Grace for her current incarceration and has vowed revenge.

Ogden explains Rose has a severe psychiatric condition and isn't responsible for her actions, which Murdoch points out doesn't make her any less dangerous. Murdoch thinks one of the inmates may have taken a key. Crabtree finds all of the women's fingermarks on the murder weapon.

Mrs. Lynd explains she picked up the knife because it was handy. She also claimed Nurse Collins got what she deserved, as she was wicked. She also refused to explain what she did, but told the Doctor and Detective to talk to Charlotte, as she was Nurse Collins' "favourite." Dr. Ogden tells Murdoch she has all the files related to Nurse Collins to look for proof of her mistreatment of the patients.

Checking the guest log, William and Julia discover Cedric Maxwell visited his sister every single day. Julia finds his address on file, and Crabtree and Murdoch bike to his cheap apartment. They discover the key mold, the tickets, and suspiciously passionate letters. Cedric admits that Rose is his adopted sister, and that they love one another. Cedric also confesses to taking the key and making a copy after the guard left it on his desk. They had planned to flee the city together and start a new life, and Rose wouldn't have killed Nurse Collins to lose that chance. All they wanted was to be with each other.

Rose tearfully confesses that Cedric never succeeds and begs the Detective to let her out to protect him. When asked about the door, Rose admits that the door was unlocked. She only wanted to make sure the "witch" wouldn't hurt anyone else. Murdoch and Ogden are convinced the person who opened the door killed Nurse Collins and is blaming it on Rose. Julia decides to stay and review the files, while William returns to the Station House.

While she is reviewing the files, Samuel brings Julia tea and tells her they were all locked up. Questioned about Eva Pearce, he says that Eva Pearce was never out of her cell, and she was the least trouble. Soon Julia falls asleep and wakes in Ward C, surrounded by the women. Eva tauntingly tells her that no one can hear her screams, as no one hears one of them. Hannah keeps asking Dr. Ogden to look at her "baby," while Rose demands to be freed from her straitjacket. Eva reveals that the women plan to escape, but only after taking their revenge of Dr. Ogden.

Back at the Station House, Murdoch finds an arrest report for Samuel Drainie, aka Jamison Wilkes. He was tried and found guilty as a minor for an assault on his own father. William attempts to call Julia, but still receives no answer. He rushes to the asylum.

Samuel Drainie peers in and refuses to let Dr. Ogden out. Eva reveals that Mr. Drainie was the true molester, and that she persuaded him to help them after telling Nurse Collins about Mr. Drainie's behaviour. The guard then killed Nurse Collins in front of her eyes to protect his secret, and she manipulated him to get Dr. Ogden into Ward C. Julia then fights with Eva for the key, but is knocked out with a bedpan by Charlotte. The other women release Rose and gives her a pipe.

Murdoch catches Eva Pearce escaping, but is forced to let her go to rescue Dr. Ogden.

Julia knocks out Rose with her cast-bound broken wrist, but then Maddie picks up the pipe. Forced to think on her feet, Julia warns Maddie that Girlie, Charlotte, and she will be punished if she hurts her. Reaching out to the Charlotte persona, she pleads with her to stop, promising Drainie would pay for what he's done. At that moment, Charlotte regains control and lowers the pipe, as Murdoch enters with a security guard. Mrs. Lynd then tells Murdoch off for taking his time.

Back at home, William and Julia talk about Drainie's modus operandi: he would don a nurse's uniform and touch women, most under the influence of drugs. After serving time, Drainie was in and out of institutions his whole life. Julia is incredulous that no one checked his credentials, and resolves to make changes.

Meanwhile, Eva Pearce tricks a man into giving her a cab ride by telling him she's been robbed. She turns with a look on her face promising revenge.

Character Revelations

Continuity

Third time the Provincial Lunatic Asylum is scene of a crime.
Julia's broken wrist is still healing in its cast from The Devil Wears Whalebone.
Previous antagonists are revealed to have been sent to the insane asylum, such as:

Julia realizes William is trying to protect her; he admits he isn't comfortable with Rose Maxwell since she attempted to murder the doctor, but Julia reassures him she can take care of herself.
Rose tells her to give her regards to Emily Grace, unnerving Dr. Ogden. (ep.714) As the doctor turns away, Rose leaps from her bed and tackles Julia, punching her in the back. As the other man hesitates, Murdoch bodily removes her, and the security guards lock her in once more.
Mrs. Lynd greets Crabtree with happiness and tells him that she's sorry for trying to kill him the last time he saw her.
Inmate Hannah asks Crabtree to take her doll's (who she believes is her child) fingermarks as well.

Historical References

Provincial Lunatic Asylum, also known as Toronto Lunatic Asylum, on Queen Street has been dedicated as space for treating mental illness for over 150 years. The asylum was state of the art: central heating, mechanical ventilation and indoor plumbing. The architect, John George Howard, was inspired by the National Gallery in London. Dr. Joseph Workman was the asylum’s medical superintendent from 1853 to 1875 and Dr. Daniel Clark from 1875 to 1905.
The term "asylum" is now associated in popular culture with Victorian Gothic Revival architecture and imaginary ghostly appearances, but at the time, these institutions were founded as benevolent places of refuge. Over time, however, many of these institutions succumbed to chronic overcrowding and shortage of staff. Subsequently, most of them offered no remedy, rehabilitation nor compassion because of their violent behaviour.

Trivia

Dr. Ogden works at the historical Provincial Lunatic Asylum which also houses the "incurables", first mentioned in Season 2 by Dr. Roberts at the Toronto Hospital for the Incurables.

The possible motive: convicted murderer Rose blames Dr. Ogden and Dr. Grace for her current incarceration and has vowed revenge.
+Ogden explains Rose has a severe psychiatric condition and isn't responsible for her actions, which Murdoch points out doesn't make her any less dangerous. Murdoch thinks one of the inmates may have taken a key. Crabtree finds all of the women's fingermarks on the murder weapon.
-Dr. Ogden takes Murdoch to Samuel Drainie, the security guard, who explains that if they behave themselves they're allowed half an hour of free time in the recreation room, after which they're locked back in their room. Rose wasn't allowed out of her room, due to her always being agitated, and he brought a knife to protect himself after being attacked four times. Drainie explains he was working there for fifteen years, and all the doors share a common key. He then explains he saw Nurse Collins being attacked and ran to help her, and wasn't sure if all the inmates had been out of their rooms at the time.
+Mrs. Lynd explains she picked up the knife because it was handy. She also claimed Nurse Collins got what she deserved, as she was wicked. She also refused to explain what she did, but told the Doctor and Detective to talk to Charlotte, as she was Nurse Collins' "favourite." Dr. Ogden tells Murdoch she has all the files related to Nurse Collins to look for proof of her mistreatment of the patients.
-Dr. Ogden admits it was possible he forgot to lock one of the doors, but not all of them, something Murdoch agrees is unlikely. Murdoch thinks one of them may have taken a key.  Julia explains Rose has a severe psychiatric condition and isn't responsible for her actions, which Murdoch points out doesn't make her less dangerous.
+Checking the guest log, William and Julia discover Cedric Maxwell visited his sister every single day. Julia finds his address on file, and Crabtree and Murdoch bike to his cheap apartment. They discover the key mold, the tickets, and suspiciously passionate letters. Cedric admits that Rose is his adopted sister, and that they love one another. Cedric also confesses to taking the key and making a copy after the guard left it on his desk. They had planned to flee the city together and start a new life, and Rose wouldn't have killed Nurse Collins to lose that chance. All they wanted was to be with each other.
-Drainie signals one of the other men to stand by as Rose and Dr. Ogden speak, the former referring to their time on the island. She expresses that she wishes she killed all of them for congratulating "that witch" for taking her Cedric away. Rose admits to killing Nurse Collins due to her enjoyment of the feeling of killing someone. She tells her to give her regards to Emily Grace, unnerving Dr. Ogden so much that she leaves. As the doctor turns away and asks the man to lock the door, Rose leaps from her bed and tackles Julia, punching her in the back. As the other man hesitates, Murdoch bodily removes her from Dr. Ogden, and the security guards lock her in once more. Julia, though shaken, is all right.
+Rose tearfully confesses that Cedric never succeeds and begs the Detective to let her out to protect him. When asked about the door, Rose admits that the door was unlocked. She only wanted to make sure the "witch" wouldn't hurt anyone else. Murdoch and Ogden are convinced the person who opened the door killed Nurse Collins and is blaming it on Rose. Julia decides to stay and review the files, while William returns to the Station House.
-Crabtree finds all of the women's fingermarks on the murder weapon.
+While she is reviewing the files, Samuel brings Julia tea and tells her they were all locked up. Questioned about Eva Pearce, he says that Eva Pearce was never out of her cell, and she was the least trouble. Soon Julia falls asleep and wakes in Ward C, surrounded by the women. Eva tauntingly tells her that no one can hear her screams, as no one hears one of them. Hannah keeps asking Dr. Ogden to look at her "baby," while Rose demands to be freed from her straitjacket. Eva reveals that the women plan to escape, but only after taking their revenge of Dr. Ogden.
-Rose is questioned once more wearing a straitjacket. She admits to biting Nurse Collins but she was still alive then. Meanwhile, Hannah tells them that Nurse Collins was cruel as she would take away her "babies," at the slightest provocation. Then, Mrs. Lynd explains she picked up the knife because it was handy. She also claimed Nurse Collins got what she deserved, as she was wicked. She also refused to explain what she did, but told the Doctor and Detective to talk to Charlotte, as she was Nurse Collins' "favourite."
+Back at the Station House, Murdoch finds an arrest report for Samuel Drainie, aka Jamison Wilkes. He was tried and found guilty as a minor for an assault on his own father. William attempts to call Julia, but still receives no answer. He rushes to the asylum.
-While Murdoch and Dr. Ogden attempt to question Charlotte, another personality, Maddie, comes to her defense. When Dr. Ogden questioned her about the knife, she told Dr. Ogden she grabbed it to keep Rose away from Girlie, another one of her personalities, as she wasn't all there. Dr. Ogden then asks to talk to Girlie, the more shy, innocent personality inside Charlotte, and she greets her. When she asked what Nurse Collins did to Charlotte, Girlie fears she'd get in trouble. After Dr. Ogden assured her she wouldn't, Girlie explained that Nurse Collins would touch Charlotte in places she wasn't supposed to. Dr. Ogden tells Murdoch she has all the files related to Nurse Collins to look for proof of her mistreatment of the patients.
+Samuel Drainie peers in and refuses to let Dr. Ogden out. Eva reveals that Mr. Drainie was the true molester, and that she persuaded him to help them after telling Nurse Collins about Mr. Drainie's behaviour. The guard then killed Nurse Collins in front of her eyes to protect his secret, and she manipulated him to get Dr. Ogden into Ward C. Julia then fights with Eva for the key, but is knocked out with a bedpan by Charlotte. The other women release Rose and gives her a pipe.
-Finally, they talk to Eva Pearce, who appears to be desperate. When asked about Nurse Collins' alleged molestation, Eva refuses to speak ill of the dead. Dr. Ogden attempts to talk to Miss Pearce, but she rambles about how Rose is insane, and how she blames Dr. Ogden, but Eva tells her Rose was waiting for her to let down her guard, and then she'd get her. Eva then threatens Dr. Ogden by telling her when she got out, they'd figure out exactly who the deluded one was. Dr. Ogden, losing her nerve, chastises her by exclaiming she will never leave, as she's exactly where she's supposed to be. With William, she admits she lost her temper, which Murdoch assures her is perfectly reasonable.
+Murdoch catches Eva Pearce escaping, but is forced to let her go to rescue Dr. Ogden.
-Checking the guest log, William and Julia discover Cedric Maxwell visited his sister every single day. Julia finds his address on file, and Crabtree and Murdoch bike to his cheap apartment. They discover the key mold, the tickets, and suspiciously passionate letters. Cedric admits that Rose is his adopted sister, and that they love one another.

-Julia reviews the files of four out of the five women. Samuel intrudes, bringing Julia tea and telling her they were all locked up. Questioned about Eva Pearce, he says that Eva Pearce was never out of her cell, and she was the least trouble. Julia falls asleep, then wakes in Ward C, surrounded by the women. Eva tauntingly tells her that no one can hear her screams, as no one hears one of them. Hannah keeps asking Dr. Ogden to look at her "baby," while Rose demands to be freed from her straitjacket. Eva reveals that the women plan to escape, but only after taking their revenge of Dr. Ogden.
-Back at the Station House, Murdoch finds an arrest report for [[Samuel Drainie aka Jamison Wilkes|Samuel Drainie]], by the name of [[Samuel Drainie aka Jamison Wilkes|Jamison Wilkes]].
-The women blame her for their mistreatment under Nurse Collins, though she pleads ignorance. Julia attempts to plead with Charlotte, (actually Maddie) who tricks her and reveals to the others her escape attempt. Eva, in new clothes and with the key, explains she has many friends. Maddie then tells Dr. Ogden that when they get out, the two of them will find men and live the life of luxury. Hannah pleads with them to be quiet for her baby's sake, but Maddie takes the doll jumps on it, shattering its china figure. Girlie then appears, trying to comfort Hannah.
-Samuel Drainie then peers in, though Dr. Ogden screams at him, he refuses to let her out. Eva then reveals that Mr. Drainie was the true molester, and that she persuaded him to help them after telling Nurse Collins about Mr. Drainie's behaviour. The guard then killed Nurse Collins in front of her eyes to protect his secret, and she manipulated him to get Dr. Ogden into Ward C. Julia then fights with Eva for the key, but is knocked out by Charlotte with a bedpan.
-Murdoch is surrounded by reports of Jamison Wilkes' assault on his father, where he was tried and found guilty as a minor. He attempts to call Julia, but still receives no answer. He then immediately rushes to the asylum.
-The other women release Rose and give her a pipe, watching as Dr. Ogden desperately tries to fight them all off. Murdoch catches Eva Pearce escaping, but is forced to let her go to rescue Dr. Ogden. Julia knocks out Rose with her broken wrist, but then Maddie picks up the pipe. Forced to think on her feet, Julia desperately tells Maddie that Girlie, Charlotte, and she will be punished if she hurts her. Reaching out to the Charlotte persona, she begs her to stop, promising Drainie would pay for what he's done. At that moment, Charlotte regains control and lowers the pipe.
-Murdoch enters with a security guard, assuring himself of Dr. Ogden's wellness. She tells him about Drainie, and he tells her he knows. Mrs. Lynd then tells Murdoch off for taking his time.
-Back at home, William tells Julia about Drainie's behaviour. William reveals that Drainie would don a nurse's uniform and touch women, most under the influence of drugs. Drainie's dark history was that he was sent to jail after attacking his abusive father, and kept going in and out of institutions his whole life. Julia is incredulous that no one checked his credentials, and resolves to change things about the ward.
 Meanwhile, Eva Pearce tricks a man into giving her a cab ride by telling him she's been robbed. She turns with a look on her face promising revenge.
