An ITVX exclusive.

Who have you ever revealed your real self to?

Starring Damien Lewis and Guy Pearce.

The man I trusted most, my best friend, has done the unethinkable.

As by among friends, stream free on ITVX.

Brown synthetic fur, round little ears, and black buttons for eyes.

I knew him as well as I knew my own face, my own name.

He had been in my life for as long as I could remember.

In fact, one of my earliest memories was watching my mom hold him by one of his little paws,

dangling him at a careful distance from herself,

as if she held something dangerous or revolting or both.

His name was Mr. Abad, but sometimes we called him the teddy bear,

because that was what he looked like, a simple little teddy bear,

one that had been so well loved that the stuffing spilled out of his rips across his body.

Most of the time, he had no mouth, but sometimes he smiled.

We don't know where he came from.

My dad said Mr. Abad had always been in his life,

that his dad had gotten him from his grandfather and his grandfather had gotten it from his great grandfather,

and so on.

His family speculated about deals made with the devil,

stolen cursed objects that haunted their thieves,

or a child's ghost that haunted their favorite stuffed toy.
