at the Wilshire memorial hmm

how about you you lived here a long time

since 47 right after the war

you've lived here since 1947 and still on my feet

hell I was here before Jack Lusman disappeared

lusman as in this building lusman

yep he built it

I wanted it to be a getaway

for all the movie stars shared his proclivities

but they're fickle

discard one fad just to embrace another

can't count on it for anything

of course it didn't help

that a lot of the guys working construction here

made a bad end

what do you mean

Ja

here you go catch

you're a lifesaver hey

it's a full time job with you

isn't it all this huffing and puffing

and running around in circles

to get back to where you started

one of these days I'm gonna get you to come with me

oh no

no no

I'm a stand in one place kind of a guy

it's working ooh yeah

missus Barrow need you to take a look at this

they were rehearsing

oh oh dude this part is mine

I'm so sorry

I really thought something awful was happening

that's all break a leg

so these guys were acting

yeah they were actors

hahaha

how can you laugh at that

I can't believe you

we have to shell out 80 bucks to fix that door

that's a great story

in two days you'll be calling your whole family

I'm sorry no

it's alright it's okay it's okay

Jesus these walls are cardboard

that is what I'm talking about

it has been like that all night

you know what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna put up some uh

acoustic tiles

some baffling here

oh leave them alone

they're finally making up

oh God

hey honey you

you wanna call the cops or should I

oh

Steven

they aren't

yeah

they are

perhaps a family that lived here long ago

maybe this is the way they handled the tooth fairy

those are not children's teeth

they have gold fillings in them

the roots are still attached to them

like they were wrenched out I know no visuals

well the building's been here since the 20s

so I'd say from the look of the box that uh

it's been here a long time

a lot of black magic uses various body parts

the ancient Saxons built whole temples out of bones Ned

go take care of the damage in the burrows apartment

please and uh

dispose of the teeth yes sir

you said these

renovations would be a minor inconvenience

well they're not even happening

and yet we're living in a madhouse now

I need to get some rest

and Nell shouldn't have to put up with all this

hey folks you know

I'm unsettled too I mean

teeth in the wall equals weird

no question about it but

it's just part of the building's charm and character

it's a lot of history here and you're part of it

and by the way

if you break your lease

you lose your security deposit

we will be okay without it

I don't think so this move set us back

Steven it just feels wrong here

I can't get another day off to move

all right we have to wait till the end of this rotation

I don't know

I'll be back as soon as I can

all right we'll figure this out I promise

hi Julia

Julia Cullenham she lives here

the walls listen

the last one's an odd bird

what do you mean Chaz

buildings have personalities just like people

I've lived here for decades and haven't figured out

this one

took me a long time to feel at home here

now I can't be anywhere else

well I'm glad to hear that

I can't believe how long you've lived here

what is it 60 years

I came out as a contract player

at Grand Street Pictures

look at me right there

handsome devil wasn't I

they paid me $50 a week

more than enough to cover my fees here

this is a great picture of you

see you now

oh your magazine all these changes

these renovations

they can't be good opening the place up

like a patient anesthetized upon a table

not good well

at least we have a doorman

it's not about what can get in

it's about what's already here

don't worry

you'll find your friend

okay

this one should be

this way

no 5 0 4

don't you think that's weird

I'm really not understanding

your fascination with a building you despise

is this about the deposit or look

there's no 3 0 4 either

all the keys are on the wall

each floor is missing the same apartment

look no

4 0 4 no

2 0 4 no

1 0 4

you've got a sharp eye

no one's ever noticed that before but why

there is no why

there's no mystery here I mean

you know skyscrapers don't have a 13th floor

this building doesn't have certain rooms

just chalk it

up as another one of the lessman's charming oddities

is that all

you live at the last one oh

you're there right at the end

baby pale riders galloping in yeah

you're lucky to see what it once was for the

quote unquote improvements

there's some strange things about that building

you wanna know about the symbols right

I can tell you some stories

what stories I thought they were just decoration

oh hell no

last man had those symbols there for a reason

bad juju that's what they're about

you sure you wanna hear all this

yes

Lesman hung out with these hipsters

and all sorts of black magic

the Talon Lunar Cult

main guy was some aerospace pioneer

tried to fuse science and magic

back in the day

the Lustman was as scary to the squares as CL Drive was

after Manson

did you know it's missing apartments

lay that on me again yeah

each floor is missing the same apartment

and there's no record of it

huh

wild check this out

it's one of the great untold stories

Lesman got all these stars to invest in his place

and then all of a sudden Bam

shit goes down the scandal sheets

start blasting him for his cold connections

construction workers are dying

city goes in and shuts him down

poor old Jack

spent 10 years finishing the place by himself

didn't you say the symbols meant something

oh yeah

each one's part of a spell

so they say they're all over the blueprints

oh let me see that

oh man

oh this is awesome

oh yeah

wacky Jack done good

everything's connected where's the side view

right here

oh yes see

see they're stacked on top of each other

like a deck of cards

with stairs running through the whole thing

from the basement on up

there are whole rooms in there

you see our minds don't work

with these sort of spatial anomalies

each room takes a little bit here

and a little bit there so nobody knows the difference

oh wacky Jack's a fucking genius

wait wait

slow down what are you saying

I'm saying

there's a whole townhouse inside your building

the only problem is there's no entrance

it's like a wonderland without a little green pill

it's it's like Oz without a yellow brick road

um do you have anything else

yeah yeah

they took a bunch of photos of the groundbreaking

okay first floor

so you get the part you know the saying

you win some you lose some

and some get washed away

by an Old Testament style flood

yeah I hear you

hey good evening now hi

Louise I'm stuck in the goddamn elevator
