1 00:00:07,207 --> 00:00:12,245 DAVID: I had another vision. Write it down. Symbols matter. 2 00:00:12,312 --> 00:00:13,413 KRISTEN: Little side hobby here? 3 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:17,283 DAVID: No, I was, uh, trying to decipher something, in my dreams. 4 00:00:17,350 --> 00:00:27,560 KRISTEN: My youngest daughter, Laura, she was born with a heart defect in her mitral valve. There's a 50-50 chance that she'll die before she's 20. 5 00:00:30,430 --> 00:00:39,172 If you knew what you were playing with, Kristen... you would be staying at home and protecting those cute little girls. 6 00:00:43,176 --> 00:01:21,748 TONY: There's a lot of scary stuff in this world, things any sane person would run from. My name's Tony Pacuci. I don't run from nothin'. This is Dougie Martin. His camera catches stuff you may not want to see. And that's Vanessa Dudley, scientist, resident skeptic. If she believes it, you better believe it. Together, we hunt Gotham Ghosts. It's Halloween night, and our investigation takes us to Jersey, to one of the most haunted strip clubs in Jersey City. A lot of negative energy... Yeah. ...that we've walked into right now. 7 00:01:21,815 --> 00:01:29,722 CALIENTE: Then something just grabbed me around the neck and began to squeeze. I couldn't breathe. I couldn't scream. 8 00:01:29,789 --> 00:01:56,850 VANESSA: We're taking along a professional skeptic this time. Everything we do, he'll check and recheck. 'Cause we don't run from the truth. Yep. I'm skeptical. Because... this show is a stupid moneymaking enterprise that uses shaky cameras and a fictional device called an EVP in order to inject drama into nothing happening in dark rooms. Don't hold back, Ben. Tell us what you really think. Y-You're not gonna use any of that, are you? 9 00:01:56,916 --> 00:02:15,535 You said "yep," so we'll keep in "yep." Ben Shakir works for the Catholic Church, investigating and debunking demonic possessions. We found one another online when he and I got in a tweet fight over Gotham Ghosts. (phone vibrating) He doesn't believe in the spiritual world, and he thinks everything we do here is a lie. Hey. What's up? 10 00:02:15,602 --> 00:02:39,859 DAVID: I have an issue at the Hopkins' house. I need a devil's advocate. The Hopkins' house? That was three months ago. That was the assessment. The issue is the exorcism. Oh, uh, well, I h... I have that thing tonight. You know, the, uh, TV show, so... probably gonna be here till midnight. Oh. I forgot. Right. probably gonna be here till midnight. Oh. I forgot. Right. Hey, why don't you call Kristen. Uh, she's a great devil's advocate. Trick-or-treating! Trick-or-treating! Trick-or-treating! And what does that mean for Laura? 11 00:02:39,926 --> 00:02:48,000 DOCKER: We hoped her heart valve would develop more, but it hasn't yet. Now, that doesn't mean it won't. We need to wait another three weeks and pray for good news. Pray? 12 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,235 and pray for good news. Pray? 13 00:02:49,302 --> 00:03:01,581 A figure of speech. Hope for good news. We'll do a test in another three weeks, and then we'll know. Trick-or-treating! Okay, I'll bring her in in three weeks. We'll go in one second! That was one second! Just now! (exhales) That was one second! Just now! (exhales) 14 00:03:04,951 --> 00:03:07,687 (sniffles) David, everything all right? 15 00:03:07,754 --> 00:03:14,928 Actually, no. There was an assessment before you joined us, one that we approved for an exorcism, and now the monsignor is having second thoughts. You need a new assessment? 16 00:03:14,928 --> 00:03:31,444 Yes. The only problem is, we are four days into an exorcism. Four days? Is that usual? No. And I know it's last-minute, but I need your help here. It's... getting bad. Trick-or-treating! Trick-or-treating! Okay, can I give you a call back in an hour? 17 00:03:31,511 --> 00:03:38,751 I promised to go trick-or-treating with the girls. Trick-or-treating! But I'll try to get a babysitter. Trick-or-treating! But I'll try to get a babysitter. (hiccups) 18 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:57,337 I'm sorry. I've never had hiccups like these before.

I knew a man that had hiccups like that-- he had a heart attack and died. 27 00:04:43,583 --> 00:04:54,927 (chuckling softly) (chuckles) I'm so sorry. It's all right. He was suicidal anyway. That's a bit chancy, don't you think? 28 00:04:54,994 --> 00:05:00,600 Making a joke about suicide and a heart attack. I mean, how do you know I wouldn't be offended? 29 00:05:02,435 --> 00:05:25,491 About three years ago, I realized that I was too worried about offending anyone for anything. I was constantly saying, "Sorry, sorry, sorry," and then... I stopped. It just lifted like a black fog. And now I say whatever I think or feel. I don't look back, and do you know why? 30 00:05:25,558 --> 00:05:26,626 Why? 31 00:05:28,161 --> 00:05:30,963 Because kindness is hypocrisy. 32 00:05:32,532 --> 00:05:35,568 (whispers): Wow.

Who? 70 00:10:10,810 --> 00:10:20,987 Caroline and how she behaves. Oh, Caroline is... Possessed. We think. Um, we are not sure if the exorcism was successful, and now we're dealing with a medical condition. Ready? 71 00:10:23,823 --> 00:10:29,295 When we enter the room, whisper to me if you need to leave for any reason, and I'll escort you out. (crying) 72 00:10:42,875 --> 00:10:44,643 It's okay. 73 00:10:52,485 --> 00:10:55,221 It's just to keep her from making eye contact. 74 00:11:40,866 --> 00:11:56,015 So she looked around, and she couldn't seem to find her family.

Hey, I was saving those ones. Didn't you trick-or-treat? 79 00:12:32,985 --> 00:12:42,962 A bit. These are Hayley and Kelsey. Hi. Uh, they live next door. You could take your mask off. No. Why not? 80 00:12:44,430 --> 00:12:46,932 So what're you guys doing? 81 00:12:46,999 --> 00:12:55,040 Telling ghost stories. Yeah. I have one. After mine. No, let's let Brenda go first. She's our guest. We'll all get a chance. I don't have an iPhone. Where is the flashlight? 82 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,544 Oh, here. You get a real flashlight. There it is. There you go. 83 00:13:01,413 --> 00:13:24,236 Once upon a time, there was a little girl. She lived with her mommy and her daddy. One day, she misbehaved so badly, that her parents locked her up in her room, and lit a fire... outside her door to kill her. 84 00:13:26,438 --> 00:13:50,029 The little girl tried to get out, but there were bars on her window, so she screamed and screamed and screamed, but no one came. So, finally, she squeezed so hard through the bars, she slipped through them, but they burned her everywhere. 85 00:13:53,098 --> 00:13:55,534 That's it? 86 00:13:55,601 --> 00:13:57,102 That's the whole story? 87 00:13:57,169 --> 00:14:13,886 Mm-hmm. But something's supposed to happen. She's supposed to turn into a ghost or something and haunt people. Ooh... But that's not what happened. I can tell you the rest, but do you want to do something really scary? 88 00:14:13,953 --> 00:14:18,624 Define really scary. Yeah. I'm down. Let's go downstairs. 89 00:14:21,093 --> 00:14:22,294 Where'd your phone go? 90 00:14:22,361 --> 00:14:25,598 Oh, there it is. (siren wailing) 91 00:14:27,132 --> 00:14:47,553 Lights low... pulsing dance music... these are the exact conditions when the demon first started tormenting these women. BEN: Just a thought, but they do have light switches. We can turn on the light. Shh. Okay, I'm starting to get something. Yeah, this is definitely a reading. Wait. We need to let the demon reveal himself. 92 00:14:51,257 --> 00:14:52,258 Whoa. Did you get that? 93 00:14:52,258 --> 00:14:54,000 DOUGIE: Sure as hell did. Did you get that? 94 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,296 DOUGIE: Sure as hell did. You ever see anything like that in your Church job, bro? 95 00:14:57,363 --> 00:15:18,350 BEN: No. But it probably helps that you got the light generators on the other side of this drywall. And that creates just enough vibration to shake the mirror loose. Okay, let's take a break. And we'll do it again for camera. MAN (over radio): Copy. So I am guessing that Tony wasn't thrilled with that. He wasn't, but I was. (laughs) 96 00:15:20,319 --> 00:15:23,222 So you don't really believe in this crap? 97 00:15:25,224 --> 00:15:42,441 95% of what we shoot is helped along. But the other five percent: I've seen some stuff that you can't exactly explain. You must've seen a few things you can't explain. Some. Come on. I'm not asking if you believe, I just-- I'm just wondering if there's anything you can't explain. 98 00:15:44,610 --> 00:16:05,497 There was a miracle. (chuckles) No, no. Uh, it's not what you think. Uh, it was a... a video. Just six frames. Someone who had died. And... I can't figure out how it was done. An angel? 99 00:16:05,564 --> 00:16:08,267 No. I-I don't know. 100 00:16:10,269 --> 00:16:52,010 We live in a world that is made up of bits and pixels. And it is so easy to manipulate them and create whatever we want. And I hate that because it encourages superstition and conspiracy theories. And... I-I just don't like when you can't tell what is real and what is fake. It's actually been eating at me, too, because... I couldn't talk to my partner David because, you know, I'm the one who's supposed to be rational. I'm supposed to be... Uh, hey, Ben, maybe we should get back to it. 101 00:16:54,179 --> 00:16:55,347 Okay. Why? 102 00:16:55,414 --> 00:17:01,754 It just feels like we should talk later. TONY: What the hell, Vanessa? We were getting great stuff. Why'd you cut him off? 103 00:17:01,820 --> 00:17:03,389 They were recording us? 104 00:17:03,455 --> 00:17:07,326 They record everything. And you let me go on? 105 00:17:07,393 --> 00:17:08,560 Yes. Until I didn't. 106 00:17:10,329 --> 00:17:13,732 TONY: That is not cool, Vanessa. We could've used that stuff. 107 00:17:19,538 --> 00:17:42,094 (fierce snarling) His enemies are scattered and those who hate Him flee before Him, like smoke is driven away by a wind. And the wicked shall perish in the presence of God. (growling) Out! Out! Out! AMARA: St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in this, our day of battle; be our safeguard against the wickedness and the snares of the devil. 108 00:17:44,229 --> 00:17:46,432 You want to step out? 109 00:17:46,498 --> 00:17:51,236 CAROLINE: Ego ex patre meo; et desideria eius volo facere! What is your name? 110 00:17:51,303 --> 00:17:54,773 In the name of God, I demand your name. 111 00:17:59,611 --> 00:18:01,180 What is your name? 112 00:18:01,246 --> 00:18:04,650 Help me. 113 00:18:06,251 --> 00:18:07,486 They're killing me. 114 00:18:21,567 --> 00:18:22,734 Are you okay? 115 00:18:22,801 --> 00:18:25,170 Was she given a psych eval? 116 00:18:30,476 --> 00:18:46,458 Bipolar I. Schizophrenia. Dissociative identity disorder. Epilepsy. (door opens) Five psychiatrists gave five different diagnoses. Both Caroline and William didn't feel treatment or medication was helping. She felt "attacked," as she put it. How long has she been restrained in that chair? 117 00:18:46,525 --> 00:18:50,229 12 hours today. Has she eaten anything? 118 00:18:50,295 --> 00:19:17,356 Food and water. When the demon rests, she consumes. And when the demon awakes, she vomits. She should be under a doctor's care. AMARA: She is. Father Thomas is a certified medical doctor. And Sister Anne is a nurse. She should be under a non-Catholic doctor's care. AMARA: She is preying on your compassion, Kristen. But it's not her. It's the demon that occupies her. That's why the demon talks to you. Am I here to be objective? 119 00:19:17,422 --> 00:19:33,605 Yes. Then, objectively, Yes. Then, objectively, you should stop this. She's dehydrated, she's bleeding, and she's mentally impaired. AMARA: Once an exorcism has begun, it must be finished. An unclean spirit, if improperly exorcised, will return with seven more spirits more wicked than the first. 120 00:19:37,943 --> 00:19:39,478 What do you suggest? 121 00:19:39,545 --> 00:19:41,680 A doctor. 122 00:19:45,484 --> 00:19:48,320 Doctor, it's Kristen. What are you doing? 123 00:19:53,625 --> 00:19:54,860 What are you girls doing? 124 00:19:54,927 --> 00:20:00,365 LILA: Getting juice. Okay. Don't spill. (girls giggling) 125 00:20:01,500 --> 00:20:06,371 So now it's time for the dare part. I haven't been down here in so long. 126 00:20:11,877 --> 00:20:16,748 If I dared you to kill your mom, how would you do it? 127 00:20:16,815 --> 00:20:23,422 I don't want to kill my mom. BRENDA: It's just a game. It's pretend. How would you do it, Laura? 128 00:20:23,488 --> 00:20:24,823 Um... 129 00:20:26,858 --> 00:20:28,293 With kisses. 130 00:20:29,795 --> 00:20:35,434 Shut up. That's not how you play. LEXIS: Don't say "shut up." It's rude. Maybe poison? 131 00:20:35,434 --> 00:20:36,000 Lila. Maybe poison? 132 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:51,683 Lila. Rat poison. You'd say, "Mom, "you work so hard and you do so much for us. Let me bake you a cake," and then you'd put rat poison in it. Yeah, or-or you could just stab her in her sleep. Hayley, why would you say that? 133 00:20:51,683 --> 00:20:56,555 (overlapping chatter) I think I just found a perfect place to hide the body. 134 00:20:57,723 --> 00:21:01,460 Look. (wind whooshing) 135 00:21:04,997 --> 00:21:04,997 What do you think's inside? 136 00:21:04,997 --> 00:21:06,000 Bugs. What do you think's inside? 137 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:11,436 Bugs. Probably bugs. (overlapping chatter) Maybe it's cats? 138 00:21:11,503 --> 00:21:16,575 (giggling) Well, if there are cats, then they're all dead. Why would you say that? 139 00:21:16,642 --> 00:21:28,387 If they're alive, then they need someone to save them. Lexis. No. Lexis, they're cats. Lexis. You have to. You want the cats to die, Lexis? 140 00:21:28,453 --> 00:21:31,523 Go ahead. Crawl in. 141 00:21:35,794 --> 00:21:50,409 Okay, I don't think this is right. We should go tell Grandma. (all protesting) Why? We're just having fun. Just having fun. Lexis. Wait. Just having fun. Lexis. Wait. LAURA: No, Lexis, it's fine! It's a game! Uh, okay. She's gone. But do you want to do something really scary? 142 00:22:16,034 --> 00:22:45,097 Dr. Kurt Boggs. VANESSA: This strip club was built on top of a colonial brothel. One of the girls had a father who was so ashamed of his daughter that he ended her prostitution career. Permanently. That means he killed his daughter. Yeah, we get that. Whoa. Thought I saw something. Vanessa. Yeah, I saw it, too. (exhales) All right, we'll go ahead. You stay here. 143 00:22:50,702 --> 00:22:54,973 Look, um... Are we being recorded? 144 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,642 (whispering): Not now. Not if we whisper. 145 00:22:58,677 --> 00:23:08,587 I liked you online because... you were honest. And you were, too. So let's continue that. 146 00:23:09,955 --> 00:23:14,459 (soft whooshing) (gasps) 147 00:23:19,030 --> 00:23:24,035 (ghostly hissing) (loud wailing) 148 00:23:25,103 --> 00:23:27,105 Ben. 149 00:23:28,907 --> 00:23:30,675 What was that? 150 00:23:30,742 --> 00:23:38,216 You-you guys did it. No. (scoffs) Okay, your team did that. There are no cameras. No one's filming this. 151 00:23:42,087 --> 00:23:43,922 Vanessa, are you messing with me? 152 00:23:43,989 --> 00:23:45,157 No. 153 00:23:57,569 --> 00:23:59,037 Let's get out of here. 154 00:24:01,173 --> 00:24:06,144 TONY: Oh, my God. Dougie, come on. Shoot it. Shoot it, man. Shoot it. Come on, give me the camera. Shoot it. Shoot it. Tony, stop. How did this happen? Come on, give me the camera. Shoot it. Shoot it. Tony, stop. How did this happen? 155 00:24:06,211 --> 00:24:22,794 It just started bleeding. We need a medic. Get Jim. We need a medic in here now. It's 10:38, and we have a violent case of a demon attack. Everybody just suddenly started bleeding. Dougie is bleeding. Our other producer is bleeding, too. It just happened, man. Vanessa. Okay. Put your head back, just like this. What is it? 156 00:24:22,794 --> 00:24:24,000 It's like a forcefield of paranormal-- What is it? 157 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:31,803 It's like a forcefield of paranormal-- Hey. Okay. It's probably something toxic in the building. Hey, we need to get you back. Do it again for camera! 158 00:24:39,211 --> 00:24:42,214 AMARA: ...from us, whoever you may be, in the name and by the power of our Lord, Jesus Christ. 159 00:24:47,252 --> 00:24:50,188 Don't look at her, demon. She can't help you. 160 00:24:52,090 --> 00:24:53,558 I demand your name. 161 00:25:01,132 --> 00:25:02,801 God has forsaken you. 162 00:25:06,972 --> 00:25:13,111 Your visions are hell, not heaven. The three stars... 163 00:25:14,145 --> 00:25:17,916 ...are of hell. David? 164 00:25:20,151 --> 00:25:43,108 It's... my vision. CAROLINE: Turn from God. Follow him. Power is with him. (groaning) I drive you from us, whoever you may be. (Caroline groaning) Delusions, hallucinations, aggravated body movements-- they're all symptoms of schizophrenia. And demonic possession. 165 00:25:44,209 --> 00:25:55,220 Well, the patient has been indoctrinated through religion that pain and suffering are caused by demons. That has played into her delusions. So you think the exorcism is feeding the delusions? 166 00:25:55,287 --> 00:26:05,730 Yes. When you're dealing with schizophrenia, playing along with the delusions only escalates the illness. In my opinion, that's what's happening here. 167 00:26:06,731 --> 00:26:08,934 What if it's not delusions? 168 00:26:09,968 --> 00:26:24,015 Dr. Boggs graduated Johns Hopkins. He's got 30 years treating schizophrenia. But, I mean, sure, let's just get his professional opinion and ignore it. (chuckles) I understand that. All I'm asking is, what if her possession is not a delusion? 169 00:26:24,082 --> 00:26:45,070 KURT: You're calling me here, asking me to believe. Mm. But I deal in facts. Psychiatry. I look at her and I see a very sick woman who needs a doctor's care and may die without it. And we see a very sick woman who may die if we stop. 170 00:26:46,137 --> 00:26:49,975 And I need to get back in there. (door opens) 171 00:26:53,044 --> 00:26:57,148 (door closes) You changed your mind. You think it's possession? 172 00:26:58,183 --> 00:27:04,189 I think she saw my vision, and she's using it against me. 173 00:27:05,190 --> 00:27:09,394 Yes, I... I-I think she's possessed. 174 00:27:16,067 --> 00:27:21,840 So, if we believe and they don't, how do we solve this? 175 00:27:46,731 --> 00:28:03,114 God the Father commands you, God the Son commands you, God the Holy Spirit commands you. (groaning) God the Father commands you, God the Son commands you, God the Holy Spirit commands you. Stoop before the all-powerful hand of God. God the Father commands you... All right, she needs a doctor. This is all a pose. (Caroline groaning) What are you talking about? 176 00:28:03,181 --> 00:28:06,151 That's not holy water. I switched it with tap water. 177 00:28:09,754 --> 00:28:46,858 She responded to the tap water. That was not your place, Kristen. I'm here to offer my psychological guidance. Yes, I'm here to offer my psychological guidance. Yes, which you did not do. You just decided by fiat that you would... No, I wanted to see if there was a psychological root to her condition. And there was. As soon as the tap water was sprinkled, she pretended it had an effect on the demon and, therefore... I-If you want to experiment, you talk to me. You don't just do it. I need to call the paramedics for an involuntarily commitment. No, sir, that is not your place. This is not supernatural, Father. This is a sick woman who is in dangerof harming herself. No, she is in danger of being harmed by supernatural forces, especially if she's placed in a hospital that is not ready for it. She reacted to the tap water as if it were real. That means it is an illness of the mind, not the soul. It doesn't matter. 178 00:28:47,926 --> 00:28:47,926 What? 179 00:28:47,926 --> 00:28:48,000 What are you talking about? 180 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:48,000 What? 181 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:49,928 What are you talking about? 182 00:28:49,994 --> 00:29:09,514 I believed it was holy water. I wanted to bless Caroline with holy water. Therefore, by my volition, it was holy water. With all due respect, Father, but you're rationalizing what happened to fit your belief system. And you're doing the same thing, Kristen. No. I'm doing my job here. It is not. Your job is to help assess. You... Wait, wait. It is my decision. I will decide. 183 00:29:11,483 --> 00:29:16,521 Why did my wife react to tap water like it was holy water, Father? 184 00:29:17,388 --> 00:29:27,465 The demon responds to God's power, and God can use any element He desires-- water, blood, sand, ash... Then why is God letting that happen to my wife? 185 00:29:27,532 --> 00:29:32,437 DAVID: Because Satan is a presence in this world, and God wants us to triumph over him through our choices. 186 00:29:32,504 --> 00:29:41,146 KURT: Sir, demonic possession is not a recognized psychiatric diagnosis. If you're right and it's medical, why is my wife speaking in those voices? 187 00:29:42,180 --> 00:29:42,180 Glossolalia? 188 00:29:42,180 --> 00:29:54,526 Yeah. Rare but possible. During severe manic episodes, deeply religious but highly delusional people have been known to speak in other languages. WILLIAM: I saw her throw a man against the wall. How can she do that? 189 00:29:54,592 --> 00:30:05,003 Excited delirium. Excited delirium. Patients show incredible reserves of strength from adrenaline. It's scientific, sir, not-not supernatural. 190 00:30:07,472 --> 00:30:13,211 I'd like to continue with the exorcism, but I want you two in the room with her. 191 00:30:21,085 --> 00:30:22,320 You okay? 192 00:30:22,387 --> 00:30:28,826 Yeah. I'll live. (sniffles) Good look for me, isn't it? 193 00:30:28,893 --> 00:30:31,362 Well, it actually is. 194 00:30:34,432 --> 00:30:43,141 (sniffles) So, you're not punking me, are you? What, getting a nosebleed to make you look bad on the show? 195 00:30:43,208 --> 00:30:47,478 No, actually not. (sniffles) And that thing we saw in there? 196 00:30:47,545 --> 00:30:48,947 The ghost? 197 00:30:49,013 --> 00:30:52,250 Yeah, "the ghost." You had nothing to do with that? 198 00:30:52,317 --> 00:30:54,452 No. 199 00:31:28,119 --> 00:31:30,021 TONY: Hey. What the hell are you doing? 200 00:31:30,088 --> 00:31:45,069 Showing how you did it. That... is a Phantograph projector. It sprays particulate-- a chemical mist-- and then it projects light onto it to make things appear like real ghosts. That is some cutting-edge stuff there, Tony. You were filming us? 201 00:31:45,136 --> 00:31:56,080 It was a Halloween prank, Vaness. The only problem is the chemical you used-- some people are allergic to it. That's why the bleeding. You bastard! 202 00:31:57,482 --> 00:32:04,155 Okay, take it off. I'm practically naked here. Wait. What-what color are your underwear? 203 00:32:04,222 --> 00:32:08,426 Let me guess. Um, they're boxers, and they're cupid hearts? 204 00:32:08,493 --> 00:32:10,328 Worse. Jedi Knights. 205 00:32:11,562 --> 00:32:11,562 Oh, my God. 206 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:12,000 Oh, my God. 207 00:32:13,498 --> 00:32:29,947 Oh, wait. Hold on. It's my call-waiting. Ignore it. No, I can't. Come on. Stay on. I want to set up a date for dinner. No. No, just give me a sec. I may have to go. No. No, no, don't. I'll be... I'll be right back. Hang-hang on. Be right back. Hello? 208 00:32:30,014 --> 00:32:31,115 WOMAN: Kristen? 209 00:32:31,182 --> 00:32:32,250 No. Who's this? 210 00:32:32,317 --> 00:32:35,286 Michelle Philips. (gasps) From the Mamas and Papas? 211 00:32:35,353 --> 00:32:36,454 Excuse me? 212 00:32:36,521 --> 00:32:46,230 (laughs): Never mind. Um, this is Sheryl, Kristen's mom. Oh, uh, could you tell Kristen, I'm so sorry Brenda couldn't make it tonight. She's been sick. Brenda? 213 00:32:46,297 --> 00:32:53,171 Yes. But she's here. She's in their room. No. She's in her bed. But then, uh...? 214 00:32:53,237 --> 00:32:55,606 Well, wait. Are-are-are you sure? 215 00:32:55,673 --> 00:33:05,049 Yes, I'm looking right at her. But I... I-I don't... I don't understand. Then... Then who...? 216 00:33:09,654 --> 00:33:11,656 Girls? 217 00:33:12,690 --> 00:33:18,129 (quietly): Oh, my God. (panting) Lexis, where are your sisters? 218 00:33:18,196 --> 00:33:20,498 They went to the graveyard. What? Why? 219 00:33:20,565 --> 00:33:23,434 The new girl took them. She wanted to show them something. 220 00:33:30,541 --> 00:33:33,578 AMARA: Save me. God the Father commands you. (shrieks) 221 00:33:33,578 --> 00:33:39,117 KURT: Stop. I should sedate her. No. I should sedate her. No. We have to keep going. Yeah, but-but I... (shrieks) 222 00:33:50,628 --> 00:34:00,538 "The unclean spirits came out, entering the swine; and the herd, numbering 60..." But this time, the pigs will not perish. 223 00:34:01,706 --> 00:34:06,511 The pigs are here amongst you, and they will cause great suffering. 224 00:34:12,550 --> 00:34:14,552 Your daughters will be buried. 225 00:34:17,554 --> 00:34:22,493 (phone vibrates) Mom, everything all right? 226 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:37,574 SHERYL: Kristen, the girls aren't here. They've gone out. Uh, what? Why? You've got to come. One of the girls who came over tonight-- she isn't who she said. And Brenda's mom called and said she was sick. And the girls followed her to the graveyard. Please come now. Please! 227 00:34:46,918 --> 00:34:48,219 What was that? 228 00:34:48,286 --> 00:34:50,321 My tummy aches. How much candy did you eat? 229 00:34:50,388 --> 00:35:12,610 You said we were gonna play another game. This isn't a game. It is a game. It's called "funeral." Look. (giggling) Look over there. Look over there. Oh, my God, this is so cool. Go touch it. Go touch a grave. No, I don't want to touch it. (giggling) So you lie down here. 230 00:35:13,644 --> 00:35:22,520 I don't want to. You have to. You're dead. It's kind of like being buried at the beach. Then why can't you do it? 231 00:35:22,587 --> 00:35:35,633 I have to finish the story. You don't have to be afraid. It's just a game. Laura's your mom, and you killed her with rat poison, and now you have to bury her. (panting loudly) 232 00:35:44,675 --> 00:35:46,677 Take over. 233 00:35:56,721 --> 00:35:58,723 We see the same vision. 234 00:36:00,558 --> 00:36:05,396 Christ the Savior, the three stars in his outstretched hand. 235 00:36:06,664 --> 00:36:23,281 Tell the 60 to let you go. (shrieking) The three stars are arrayed against them. They are not of the devil. They are sent by heaven. They will protect you. And the tomb? 236 00:36:23,347 --> 00:36:37,261 Yes. The 60 can't stand against you. (crying): They are too strong for me. No. They only pretend to be. I'm afraid. I'm afraid. (whispering): I am, too. But... 237 00:36:38,629 --> 00:36:43,634 I am here. We've seen the same thing. 238 00:36:49,774 --> 00:36:54,378 (gasps) You're in danger. 239 00:36:56,314 --> 00:37:02,853 He's coming... for you. Then tell him to leave you. 240 00:37:04,755 --> 00:37:10,561 (groaning, hissing) (wheezing) 241 00:37:17,068 --> 00:37:19,270 Caroline? 242 00:37:23,674 --> 00:37:24,942 Caroline? 243 00:37:29,580 --> 00:37:31,582 Where's my husband? 244 00:37:34,685 --> 00:37:37,888 (whimpers softly) William? 245 00:37:37,955 --> 00:37:40,625 Oh. (gasps) 246 00:37:44,895 --> 00:37:46,530 CAROLINE: Oh... 247 00:38:25,636 --> 00:38:27,571 You heading home? 248 00:38:27,638 --> 00:38:30,007 Yeah. Thinking about it. 249 00:38:33,144 --> 00:38:35,579 So, uh, how's your nosebleed? 250 00:38:35,646 --> 00:38:37,748 Better. Yeah. Better. Yeah. 251 00:38:39,583 --> 00:38:41,919 So, are we gonna keep tweeting each other? 252 00:38:52,563 --> 00:38:54,565 Call. 253 00:39:00,771 --> 00:39:04,608 (whimpers, sniffles) (crying) 254 00:39:06,610 --> 00:39:08,446 So, do you want to hear the end of the story? 255 00:39:08,512 --> 00:39:10,448 The burned girl story? 256 00:39:14,518 --> 00:39:35,406 Once upon a time, there was a girl who was so burned by her parents that she looked like a monster. No one could look at her for more than a minute. She couldn't go outside because people were too scared of her. They would scream, and they would run away. 257 00:39:36,674 --> 00:39:53,657 But Halloween night... (train horn blows) was the only night she could go out, because she could wear a mask, and no one thought it was weird. (train horn blows) And no one was scared of her. 258 00:39:55,593 --> 00:39:59,497 Until she took it off. (train chugging) 259 00:40:11,809 --> 00:40:15,179 KRISTEN: Lynn! Lila and Laura! 260 00:40:15,246 --> 00:40:17,748 LILA: Mom! There! 261 00:40:19,850 --> 00:40:19,850 Laura? 262 00:40:19,850 --> 00:40:25,990 (sobbing) (sobbing) It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. Where's Laura? 263 00:40:26,056 --> 00:40:30,161 Here. Come on. Come on. (crying) 264 00:40:31,595 --> 00:40:47,711 It was a game. We were playing "funeral," and Brenda made us bury her. It's okay. What?! It's okay. What?! In the game, Ms. Bouchard. We had to kill our parents, and Brenda told us to. It's true. Brenda said it was a bonus round. (sobbing) Where's Brenda? 265 00:41:00,958 --> 00:41:03,727 Boo! (both yell) 266 00:41:10,100 --> 00:41:14,939 Captioning sponsored by CBS Captioned by Media Access Group at WGBH access.wgbh.org
