John Dee begins with server Bette and removes her kind demeanor towards her customers, he then turns his attention and that of the Ruby towards power couple, husband and wife Garry and Kate, to just be honest with each other as they squabble over spinach salad and double decker burgers.As Bette's love interest, Marsh, is also exposed to the scrutiny of John’s Ruby as he forces a matter-of-fact confession that the only reason he comes to her home is not to be with her but to be with her 21 year old son Bernard. As John turns his vision of absolute truth on to Judy who has recently broken up with her girlfriend, and on Mark, a hopeful employee of Vanguard Pharmaceuticals, the unconnected group spirals out of control with one another.Judy kisses Bette as Kate gets down with hopeful employee Mark and her husband Garry hooks up with Marsh. As John Dee takes pride in the honesty he has brought to the diner, he has also brought about jealousy and anger overtakes these innocent people when Mark accidentally murders Garry, driving them to murder each other or take their own lives. The Lord of Dreams arrives too late but tries to explain to John that what he thinks are lies are another form of dreams and hopes.But John refuses to listen to him and Morpheus transports him to his Realm to retrieve the Ruby, but where John has other plans as he uses the ruby's power to defeat Morpheus. Crushing the ruby in his hand, John exults in his victory, before Morpheus reveals himself and tells him that by destroying the ruby, its power was released and reforged back into its true master, Morpheus.Taking pity on John, Morpheus returns him to the institution, seemingly in a state of long-term sleep. With the wider world also recovering from John’s intervention, Morpheus's sibling Desire plots against him.The Sandman Chapter 5 CastTom Sturridge as Morpheus The Lord of DreamsEmma Duncan as Bette MonroeDavid Thewlis as John DeePatton Oswalt as Matthew The RavenDaisy Head as JudyLourdes Faberes as Kate FletcherLaurie Davidson as MarkThe Sandman CreatorsBased on the comics written by Neil Gaiman Art by Sam Kieth and Mike Dringenberg.Cover Art by Dave McKeanExecutive Producers are Allan Heinberg, Neil Gaiman and David S.
