All language subtitles for Lou Grant s05e10 Ghosts

Hello, I'm calling from the crib. I'd
like to determine...

Constance. Why couldn't we have done
this during the day?

Because I work for a living. I hate this
house at night.

Oh, yeah, if you would give me the key
and I could have done this by myself.

Yeah, well, if I'd let you come along,
you would have taken everything but the

walls. Sure, I would have stolen a six
-foot arm wall.

Not you, your lawyer.

What is that stuff?

Come on in.

Oh, no.

What's that?

I wouldn't hear, but it's a ghost.

Lay back and have a beer.

Who has a cigarette?

I'm not kidding you.

Kids have been sneaking in here.

I'm going to have to put a lock on this.

You haven't had the phone turned off
yet?

I'll get to it. Sure.

They're going to pick this up on Monday.

What?

Wait a minute. We agreed.

I need this for my apartment.

Howard, I have a client who wants this
for his restaurant.

Well, fine.

You take what you want, and I'll take
what I want. Haven't you already done

that, lover boy?

But you want to talk about it? Well,
Howard, I want to talk about it. Talk to

yourself. Howard.

Oh, I love you. Baby, you are just how
stupid you think I am. Do you think that

I wouldn't find out about it? Look, you
don't like it. Well, that's tough, baby.

Shut up, because I've had it.

I don't feel it.

Really? Well, I don't, sir.

Yeah, well, just leave me alone.

I'm telling you, just leave me alone.

Howard, did you knock the lights? Why
would I turn off the lights?

I don't want to scare you. I don't want
anything to do with you. I just want to

get rid of you. Howard, you're not going
to get rid of me that easily, knowing

what I know now.

Yeah, we've always been on the same
wavelength.

I wanted you to have a photographer at
the harbor tomorrow morning at 7.

Cover the arrival of the world's largest
floating dry dock.

Gee, how did you forget something
fascinating like that?

Okay, I've got it. Okay, thanks.

Luke, wait a minute.

Don't hang up. I called you, remember?

Oh, yeah.

I've decided to go to my sister's
wedding in Phoenix, so I'll need someone

cover for me Friday night.

I'm writing a note to myself now.

Also, there's been a homicide in South
Pasadena.

Everyone here was busy, so I sent Billy.

She's the only one I can find home at
this hour.

Ted's gonna love that. Do you ever think
of becoming a marriage counselor?

It's Billy's kind of story.

What do you mean?

Well, it's the Shepard house.

Shepard house? Yeah. A bunch of
parapsychologists have been studying it.

Why? It's supposed to be haunted.

and shut.

Well, let's just say he's a suspect,
okay?

Witnesses?

Nobody.

Except the ghost.

Huh?

You know, there's supposed to be spirits
in there. You're kidding.

You see anything spooky?

Nothing I'd admit to you. Oh, come on.
Tell me. I won't print it. I'm just

curious.

Famous last words. I swear, I won't
print it.

Look, it wouldn't be good for my hard
-boiled image. If you saw something, you

saw something.

It doesn't mean you believe in ghosts.

Okay, but it wasn't much.

Standing in the kitchen there, and this
bar stool starts turning all by itself,

and nobody was standing near it.

Royal Cops just love to put on
impressionable young girl reporters.

You? I wouldn't put you on.

Kids over there.

What do you think that is?

Evident.

Oh, hi,

Billy. Glad you busted your buns to get
in time for lunch.

I didn't get home till three in the
morning on that story.

Oh, that's right. I'm inside in South
Pasadena.

I pulled some clips on that house. It's
supposed to be haunted, you know. I

know. There was a little girl murdered
there ten years ago.

I remember that. Did you ever find the
guy?

No, I never did.

That's funny. Sergeant Rose didn't
mention that to me last night.

Unsolved murders are not a source of
pride in a police department.

The house has been sold several times
since then. People can't seem to live in

it. They hear footsteps, see vases
floating, hear screams and disembodied

voices. That's the least, Lester.

This is creepy.

The little girl who was murdered there
was found on the staircase.

That's exactly where the woman last
night was still.

Can I have this? Sure.

I wanted to ask you, do you drive a red
car?

No, and I'm not in your face, Charlie.
If somebody else, my car is blue.

Marion had one of her dreams.

It's about the fight. Let's hear it. I
went with her dream the last time I won

bundle. Nothing that big.

She dreamt that Rossi was driving a red
car.

Well, if you weren't in one today, I'm
alive.

Well, a guy did give me a lift from the
garage in a red van. Does that count?

That count, of course it counts.

I'm telling you, Marion is uncanny. So
what does it mean? What happened in the

dream? Do I come out all right?

I'm not going to tell you what happened.

Keep your hands off my wife.

Just came in on city news service. Going
to make your story a whole lot more

interesting. Police book Howard Brass.
Why is that interesting? He was alone in

the house with him. He was killed. It's
pretty open and shut.

Maybe not.

Felix Cunningham has signed on as his
attorney.

Is that like a dinosaur bone?

I think it's like a fragment of a whale
vertebrae. Well, then, what's it doing

up here in the mountain?

Well, we are. Used to be the bottom of
an agency, don't you know that? Are you

an archaeologist or what?

No, I just volunteer on the weekend.

May I ask you a question, too?

Sure.

Why did the defense lawyer with an
exceptional track record take on a

case like Howard Craft?

That question doesn't have a lot to do
with paleontology.

Because it isn't hopeless.

Mr. Cunningham, I'm Billy Newman from
the charity.

You don't mind walking for a story, do
you? No. I read this as one of your

interests. Are you on the newspaper's
time or your own?

I guess my own.

Very enterprising.

You drop things a lot?

No. Why?

Yeah.

That's it.

Very careful.

I took the case because, number one, In
interviewing Mr. Kraft, I was convinced

he didn't kill his wife.

And secondly, the history of that house
persuades me there are other forces

operating inside it that could have been
responsible for her death.

Other forces?

What are you talking about?

Some people call them poltergeists. I
don't care what the term is.

But experts in the field have been
studying the shepherd house for a long

So I've read.

That house had six... owners in the last
ten years.

And since that child was killed there,
other people have had strange

experiences. They've fallen down, have
been thrown from those stairs, where the

little girl was murdered.

I spoke with the young man hurt at the
same spot. He was chewing.

He said he was pushed by a pair of
strong hands when there was nobody else

him. Who is the young man?

You'll see him at the trial.

You know, the victim, Constance Craft,
was convinced the house was haunted and

believed it had destroyed her marriage.

This notion was reinforced by her
sister, Josephine, who was kind of a...

psychic.

Well, with these arguments and some
scientific evidence I plan to provide,

I think I can make it difficult for the
state to prove Howard Cramp is guilty

beyond a reasonable doubt.

A poltergeist killed her. That's how
you're going to plead in court. A

poltergeist could have killed her.

That's how we're going to plead in
court.

Lou Grant will continue in a moment here
on A &E.

A &E returns to Lou Grant.

What are those UFOs?

I don't know what they are. I wish I
did.

I thought you'd be getting into the
extraterrestrial after your last story.

It was interesting, wasn't it?

You had fun writing it?

Yeah, I did.

Good job.

What do you mean?

Now, don't get defensive. That approach
is probably okay for a story like this,

except for the fact that a man is on
trial for his life.

Calling it the poltergeist defense tends
to make light of it. Well, I'm sorry

you feel that, Rossi, because if ever
there was a time for healthy skepticism,

it's when a lawyer claims that ghosts
did the victim in.

Like the kid who claimed watching TV
inspired him to murder four people.

Or the guy who said that eating too many
cupcakes gave him a homicidal sugar

high. Here are your notes.

All I know is a man's life is on the
line, and I myself would think twice

writing it up like a Halloween present.

Of course you would.

A friend of mine used to hunt spooks.

In an old farmhouse once, they thought
they heard breathing. There was always

this cold spot in the dining room.

They found the cold spot all right. The
attic was drawing in air from the

outside and creating a draft, and the
breathing was a wild cat up in the

Yeah, I think all these things have
simple explanations.

It just takes common sense. I mean,
spoon bending is a fraud.

And oddly enough, Ouija boards always
work better when everybody already knows

the answer.

That's what this is.

What is?

This. This.

Where's Lou?

I guess he just, uh, vanished.

He went to lunch.

Lou? Lou, don't leave me.

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry. That was clumsy.

Sam.

Oh, I'm glad I caught you. Charlie asked
me to bring a copy on Burroughs Street

at lunch. So naturally I forgot it. I
figured out what the cops found outside

the house the night of the murder. It's
a marker to a Ouija board.

And those kids I saw running away may
have been witnesses.

What makes you think so?

Well, you don't play with a Ouija board
outside in the dark on a cold night.

I bet those kids were inside the house.

Could be. Who do you think they are?
Neighborhood kids? I don't know. Can I

to find them? How are you going to do
that?

Maybe with a Ouija board.

Hi, Danny.

Yeah. Are you Walter?

Mm -hmm.

Hi. I'm Billy Newton. Can I ask you a
couple of questions?

Billy Porter?

Yes. How did you find me?

I asked around the neighborhood.

Not many guys your age have a cast on
their own.

Oh, right.

I saw you hanging around the Shepherd
House the night of the murder.

Both of you.

Not us.

Well, it was somebody who looked a lot
like you.

The police found some evidence there,
you know?

Part of a Ouija board.

That little thing that moves around.

It's called a planchette.

Oh, really?

What's that for?

I just want to write that down.
Planchette.

Well, that's what it's called, just in
case you ever want to know.

The Ouija board wasn't ours.

But you were playing with it?

Inside the house?

Okay, look, we were there, but we
didn't... Stop it, Bess. What are you

All they have to do is trace our
fingerprints, you idiot.

We didn't see anything.

I'm not kidding.

I mean straight with you.

Okay. We heard someone coming and split
before anything happened.

Whose Ouija board is it?

Usually takes more than two people to
play.

Who's the other guy?

There wasn't another guy.

Okay.

How'd you do that?

I fell.

Where?

Like some steps.

Sounds like you don't want to talk about
it. I can understand. Did Mr.

Cunningham say you shouldn't before the
trial?

Yeah.

Okay.

Walter, Danny, thanks.

Give it a big help.

As we lay my beloved sister Constance to
rest, let us not dwell on death, but on

the fragile nature of life that God has
given us.

We mustn't think that Constance has left
us. Rather, she has just moved on to

another plane of existence, perhaps more
peaceful than the one she left.

I believe this world is a laboratory.

where we work out the mistakes of the
past, to live without ego in the present

moment, to be aware of the beautiful
eternity before us and after us.

And we go back and forth from different
planes of existence

until we have fulfilled our karma, and
we are ready to move on to higher

until we have reached the inner circle,
and we are one with God.

Constance came to share these views with
me.

And although she has been taken from us
by violent means, the lessons that she

learned in this life have been her
wisdom.

She is safe now.

She has come home.

I know she is with us.

And in her happiness, she is able to
forgive those who treated her

ill.

Mr. Cunningham.

You certainly turn up in the strangest
places.

I know this isn't a good time, but do
you think I could speak to Mr. Kraft?

Howard, this is Billy Newman from the
Tribune. You feel like talking?

What do you think, Clark?

Nothing. Hi.

May I ask you if you feel your interests
are well served by going with the

poltergeist defense?

You're calling it that. We didn't. I
don't care what you... call it frankly i

have no other explanation i know i
didn't push my wife so you believe the

is haunted well i didn't before but you
know constance did we used to argue

about it in fact i think it contributed
to the failure of our marriage but now

there isn't any doubt that there are
forces in that house which we cannot

logically understand would you care to
expand on that look i was five feet from

her when she fell None of my research
has turned up evidence of poltergeist

hurting people. They're supposed to be
rather benign, almost playful.

She went over that banister with a
tremendous force, and I didn't touch

Now, that doesn't sound very playful to
me, does it to you?

I'm innocent.

It really is.

Then why not just plead innocent?

Can't you make a case for it?

He had a deteriorating relationship with
his wife.

People saw them fighting in public. It's
not that simple. Couldn't it have been

an accident?

The way she fell and the trajectory of
the body indicate the victim was pushed.

It's not going to be an easy argument.
You can't put a ghost on the stand.

I can hope to convince a jury that there
was something unnatural in that house

at that time.

Sounds to me like you're trying to shift
the issue from whether he's innocent or

not to a debate on the existence of
ghosts.

I'm glad you're not on the jury.

Lou Grant will continue in a moment here
on A &E.

Thank you for coming.

Were you a friend of my sister's?

Not really.

Billy Newman.

I'm sorry.

You're a writer.

How did you know?

Oh, your hand. I can tell these things.

I was told you were psychic. Yes.

May I ask you how you feel about this
poltergeist defense that your brother

-law and Mr. Cunningham are relying on?

Well, I don't know, but I certainly
don't approve of the seance.

Seance? To prove the house is haunted,
they've asked a team of scientific

experts to hold a seance and testify to
their findings. Who are the experts?

Dr. Lucille Haas.

Lucille Haas?

Even I've heard of her. The house is
full of unrest.

Anyone can feel it.

They don't know what they're unleashing.
But wouldn't the results be crucial to

Howard's defense?

Howard brought my sister to that house.

You can understand why I'm not terribly
concerned with his defense.

Excuse me.

I don't have my credit card number.

Because I don't have my credit card.

I lost it.

Well, I lost my wallet.

Don't you people file accounts by name
anymore?

Grant.

Comma. Lou.

I'll wait.

Music to get high blood pressure by.

If you check all of the pockets of all
your pants, I've looked everywhere.

Could it have slipped out when you bent
over or something?

Last time I did somersaults in the city
room.

You left it in the store.

It was gone when I got to McKenna.

I hope the old lady pickpocket from
Bunker Hill didn't get it. You remember

82 years old. And what a pro.

Oh, boy.

That's all I need at this moment all
over town. Support stockings and

statuettes of shepherds are being
charged to my car.

I have a great idea. The art for Billy's
story?

A time exposure taken at night.

See, you set up the camera like in front
of this haunted house, open the lens,

expose the film for a couple of minutes.
The effect is kind of ghostly and

weird. As long as it's legit, you can't
alter it in the darkroom.

No way. I'll only print what's in the
negative.

I want the reader to know that. Your
credit line should say, time exposure

photography by.

Gotcha.

90 % of these cases, the person is
haunted, not the house.

So those cases you treat clinically.

And the rest?

10 % of the time, we really do find
something interesting.

Dr. Haas, you're a conventionally
trained psychologist with, what, 25

experience? Nearly 30.

And you didn't have any trouble
accepting these way -out theories of...

apparition, ESP, paranormal experiences.

Much of what was considered way out is
commonplace in medical practice today.

Hypnosis, near -death experience.

I'm afraid I'm skeptical.

Good. Stay skeptical. It's a healthy
place to be.

I want proof myself.

The problem is you can't get a ghost to
appear in a laboratory, so you can't

measure it. But that doesn't mean these
things don't exist.

Have you ever seen an apparition?

I've been with people who are sensitive
who've said, don't you see that over

there? And no, I don't see it.

I simply don't have that gift of vision.

Of course, non -psychics see apparitions
too.

Maybe I'm just not lucky.

You have an excellent reputation. Why
are you allowing yourself to be used by

the defense in a murder case?

Oh, I don't feel I'm being used.

Mr. Cunningham says he won't interfere
with the seance.

It's just an opportunity for research.

May I come?

If you follow my instructions carefully.

I will.

First of all, don't have high
expectations.

Most psychic research is boring and
nothing happens.

Okay. We hold a seance because it's
traditional.

We don't know why it works.

We also observe the traditions that go
along with it. The joining of hands, the

not breaking the circle. You mustn't
break the circle under any

What would happen?

First of all, it's dark.

And in the dark, people like human
contact.

The power of suggestion is strong.
You'll be glad to have someone to hold

Beyond that, there well may be powers
we're stirring up that we don't

understand.

In that case, all of us together are
strong. One isolated is vulnerable.

Lou Grant will continue in a moment here
on A &E.

Are we doing the right thing?

With that story about the poltergeist
defense, I'm very uncomfortable with

making it an amusing piece.

The readers love it. They're eating it
up.

Well, it's just not a subject that
amuses me, dealing with the afterlife.

You know, you may laugh at me, but when
I had my stroke,

apparently at one point things got
rather dicey, and they tell me I stopped

breathing.

Now, I remember a peculiar feeling of
being lifted out of my body and

floating above the scene, looking down
on myself.

I remember passing through a long tunnel
with light at the end of it.

And there were friends that I had known
waiting for me.

Well, I never did reach them because I
woke up and found myself in the

That's called an out -of -body
experience.

Is it really?

It's quite well documented.

They think they have an explanation for
it.

And what would that be?

Well, when a person is close to death,
there's a neurochemical reaction in the

brain. Sort of like if the switchboard
went crazy. All the neurons fire at

The things you've described are quite
common.

Similar to the hallucinations under
drugs.

And I am just as uncomfortable with
mysticism as you are.

But I tell you, that experience was very
profound and quite real.

But I have come to accept the fact that
there are many more mysteries on this

earth than I could have accepted a few
years ago.

Now, concentrate all of your attention
on that point where my fingers are

contact with the spoon. All of your
energies at that point.

We'll see if we can make something
happen. I feel the spoon getting warmer.

Something's starting to happen.

Concentrate. Concentrate all of your
attention there. Don't laugh.

Concentrate. Something's happening.

How did you do that?

Can you keep a secret?

Yes. So can I.

But I assure you there's nothing psychic
about it. Any master magician can bend

a spoon these days.

So all those spoon bendings and key
bendings are fake?

Those that I've observed.

What's this?

Don't touch it.

We've pinned sewing thread top to bottom
on all the doorways.

That way, if anyone tries to sneak in or
out when it's dark, they'll break the

thread. Very clever.

What else?

Well, Dr. Hopp and I have measured the
entire house inside and out and compared

those measurements with the architect's
plans.

We're looking for secret rooms, wide
crawl spaces, evidence of the house

settling which could account for
creaking noises or doors closing by

that sort of thing. Did you find
anything unusual?

Nothing at all. I think we can be
certain that when we start tonight,

all alone in this room. Excuse me. Let's
go through some ritual here.

Would everyone witness that these tapes
and this film has never been opened?

Witnessed.

Witnessed.

Billy?

How do you find the house? Well, there's
definite coldness on this staircase.

And just above the baluster where she
fell, I'm getting some activity.

This is Rose, our medium.

Hello.

May I ask you how much the defense
attorney is paying for your services

I never take money.

I believe we should give freely of that
which is given to us.

Shall we settle down?

Over here, Billy.

Lucille, do we know if there's been a
poltergeist agent anywhere in the house?

What's that?

There's a correlation between
poltergeist activity and the presence of

teenagers, especially adolescent girls.

Unconsciously, they project sexual
energy into the environment, causing

to happen, objects to fly, doors to
open.

Alec, there was a young girl here when
that boy fell and broke his wrist a few

months ago. A girl? One of his friends?

Presumably.

This is not fairy dust.

This is to mark footprints.

The shoe size of the entity is very
important.

Well.

Are we ready?

Not quite.

Is there room in your circle?

I wanted to show this to you before you
went home.

Good. Nice effect.

House really looks weird. Look closer at
that downstairs window.

What's that?

Looks like someone's standing there.

Yeah, I know. But nobody was.

There must be dust or something on the
negative.

Not that I can tell.

You know, there's a theory these
entities don't go through the lens, but

impress themselves directly on the film.

Are you asking me to buy that?

Oh, no, I don't believe any of that
stuff.

So what are some other explanations?

Oh, reciprocity failure, old developing
chemicals, flaw in the paper stock.

Did you check all those things? Yeah.

I don't think it's any of them.

So what's your explanation?

Are you telling me this is a picture of
something supernatural?

Well, I don't know. I think it just kind
of happened.

Keep your eyes open.

Don't be afraid to speak up if you see
something so a photographer will know

where to shoot.

Now familiarize yourself with every
reflection and glimmer of light so

know if you see something unusual.

If there's anyone or anything in the
house, we ask that you make yourself

present to us.

We want to communicate.

We wish you no harm.

What's that?

Where? Over there, against the wall.

Is that... Oh, no.

I'm sorry.

It's coming from the flash gun, the back
of it. It's the ready light.

I knew it was too good to be true.

Billy, are you all right? Yeah. You
squeezed my hand so awfully tight.

I just didn't expect it, that's all.

Tell us if you want to stop.

We've all been through this before.

Thanks. I'm fine.

Join us.

Contact us.

Make a physical noise.

Push something. Knock on something.

Make a noise and let us know you're
here.

We come with only good intentions.

Everyone, clear your mind.

Feel the energy flowing through our
hands.

Round and round, blue energy, like blue
light.

Does anyone feel a draft?

Yes.

It's getting colder down around our
hands.

I can feel it, too. It's definitely
getting colder.

If you are the spirit of the child who
was killed in this house, please come to

us now.

What was that?

Where? What direction?

Toward the stairs.

What did you hear? A creak or a
knocking.

Come to us now. Speak through me.

Tell us your name.

Give us a sign.

Keep shooting!

Don't stop!

Lou Grant will continue in a moment here
on A &E.

Look at that. Look at that.

I love it. A book on the floor. Stop the
presses. Yeah, but a second before it

was on the shelf.

Stop the presses again.

I mean, it was flying through the air.
The photographer just couldn't catch it

in time.

Uh -huh.

Listen.

First there was the cool breeze. We all
felt it, even though the windows were

closed and it was hot and stuffy in
there. And then right after we felt it,

book comes flying out of the bookshelf,
I swear to God, all by itself.

Come on, nobody was standing near it?
No, and there was not a mark on the

powder, none of the doorway threads were
broken.

How did that book move?

Today's army wants you. Me?

I'm not kidding.

Just had a call from the U .S. Army.
They would like you to brief them on

everything you know about the Shepard
House and the Kraft murder case. Oh, no.

Do you agree to that?

Gave me a lot of stuff.

Boy, is it impressive.

For instance, the Army, the Navy, the
CIA, the National Security Agency,

all been involved in psychic research.

That's cute. Each one trying to find out
what the other's doing.

You mean the government is really
putting money into this? Apparently they

They don't say how much. The Russians
are doing it, too, and they're supposed

be ahead of us.

They've spent millions on psychic
research and apparently they make

breakthroughs in Kirlian photography.

You mean taking pictures of auras?

Right. That's the energy given off by
living things. Yeah, but the army now

claims that auras are nothing more than
body moisture interacting with the

Earth's magnetic field.

They've gotten pictures of auras around
wet sponges and bowls of spaghetti.

Hey, that research is important.

I've heard the Russians have a spaghetti
bomb.

I can't believe you'd give those guys
access to what Billy learned.

Are you crazy?

I'd never do that.

What did you tell him? I told him that
we wouldn't cooperate.

And I turned him over to a great source,
Marion.

She'll keep him busy for a while.

You know, Lou, I did find out something
interesting last night.

There was a girl in the house the night
that boy Danny broke his arm. I thought

they were protecting somebody, but it
never occurred to me it was a girl.

You think she was there that night and
witnessed the murder? She may have seen

something they didn't.

Why don't you follow that up?

But first you better tell the police
what you know about it. Okay, I'll call

Sergeant Roach.

Oh, by the way, I asked the medium about
your wallet.

She said look in the track.

Thanks.

Hey, Lou.

You haven't hired anybody new, have you?

Not controlling you? Of course not.

Good morning.

Oh, hi, Donovan. No, no, no, no. That's
not why I'm asking.

Marion had another dream last night.
She's quite disturbed by it.

She said there was a new man in the
sitting room who was in terrible danger.

saw blood all over the place. I know it
sounds silly, but she didn't sleep all

night. No new men around here. No new
women.

So right at.

Billy Newman?

This is Joseph.

Bowers. I'm calling from the Shepherd
House. I had to let you know there's

something very wrong here.

What is it?

Ever since last night, I've had the very
strong feeling that a child

was still trapped in this house.

What we saw was an entity letting us
know it was here.

Now I know it's in great pain.

It's talking to me.

Talking?

through the car.

It needs to be freed.

The poor thing doesn't even know it's
dead.

I think it's the ghost of the little
girl who was murdered and it hasn't

over to the other side.

It's still trapped.

Listen, Josephine, what we saw last
night may have been the house settling

trick of some kind. No.

I'm here and I feel it.

I'm going to set it free.

Will you come here now?

I think we should have other witnesses.

We shouldn't be there alone.

We won't be alone.

All right.

Here's the schedule for the new shuttle
bus to the garage.

Mrs. Pinchon went for it. Listen, she's
hiring new security guards as well. Hey,

hey, hey, you must have some magic
influence over her.

I think it's called guilt.

You know who the new man in the city
room might be? The one that Marion saw

her dream? Who's in terrible danger?

Who? Billy.

Billy?

How's that?

Newman. Billy New Man.

I'm sorry. Are you all right?

Yes, I'm all right. I was just trying to
see how Constance could have fallen

where she did.

It's true.

An object would have to be thrown to go
that far.

I'm glad to see you.

Don't be afraid.

Oh, I'm not afraid.

Spirits aren't evil, just people.

I just felt too sick to tell anybody.

And the more I waited, the more I knew
you'd all be mad.

I didn't know anything about this.

She'd been in bed all week with a
stomachache.

It's okay, Emily.

Nobody's mad at you.

Just tell me what you saw.

I was hiding, but I could hear what they
were saying.

They hated each other. They were
fighting.

About what?

They were on top of the stairs.

Josephine, I'm more worried about you
than I am about the ghost.

Don't worry about me.

I think you're very upset about your
sister's death.

And maybe your imagination is a little
vivid after last night.

I'm here to cover the story, but I do
wish you'd call Dr. Haas and explain

you're feeling.

The ghost talking to you and stuff.

It doesn't matter whether you believe
me.

It only matters that you're here.

They were saying stuff about this woman.

What kind of stuff?

That she and the man, you know.

I think I do.

but you have to tell me because this is
very important.

That he and this other woman have been
making love.

What was this other woman's name? Did
they say?

Oh, they said it a lot.

Josephine.

Josephine? Right.

She was saying, how could he do this
with my own sister?

Right in front of my nose with my
sister.

This is the spot that it always happens.

So are you getting any feelings?

Look how far she fell.

Yes, you see?

Something had to push her.

Oh, no.

It's back, and it's coming from the
basement.

You've got to be kidding.

Come on.

No, I'll wait right here, thanks.

is here i'm sure i'm okay as long as
there aren't rats if we see one rat

we're leaving

over here

These are good things.

That's it?

There it is.

If you've ever seen a trial turn around
on a dime, you should have heard the

testimony today.

A little girl told the jury all about
how she heard Howard and Constance

fighting. It turns out that Howard was
having an affair.

With Josephine, his sister -in -law.

Josephine was sitting in the courtroom.
She turned as red as a beet. And I

thought Cunningham, the lawyer, was
going to have a stroke.

The poor man was trying to keep his
cool, but you could tell it was the

he'd heard of it.

Isn't that the way?

The poltergeist defense will always hold
when lust nears its ugly head. Let's

not go knocking luck.

So, Howard will change his plea to
Gillian. This will wrap up in a few

You've got 600 words.

I need more.

What? The police also proved today that
the doll we found in the house belonged

to the murdered child.

And since we took it out of the house,
there's been no strange activity.

The spirit was laid to rest.

By the way, Lucille Haas called me.

I know. She invited me to another
seance.

I said no thanks.

Would you like to be scared?

Not scared like that.

I know in the history of the world, one
book moving out of a bookshelf

apparently all by itself is no big deal,
but it can't be explained, and I

don't want to think about it.

City desk.

Yeah, I'll accept.

Hello, Lieutenant.

Yeah.

Yeah, that sounds like mine.

Great.

Send it back anyway.

Yeah, it has sentimental value.

Thanks a lot for calling.

Yeah, okay.

I found my wallet.

Where was it? San Francisco.

Somehow it was stolen. They took the
money and most of the credit cards and

threw the wallet away.

They found it in the bus station.

In the trash.
