A karaoke bar? The one on Packer?
Correct.

I need a stick for one night and you
guys go straight to the bottom of the

barrel.

Hey, it was Marion's idea.

Me? You said the guy who teaches you
yoga class is a bartender. And that he's

gorgeous. Which he is. But it wasn't my
idea to go to the bar.

I don't know how I'm even going to show
my face next week. Oh, maybe Kimmy can

take your place.

Can we just cut to the chase here? What
exactly did Kim do?

She sang.

To the bartender. You dared me. Yeah, I
really had to twist your arm. Oh, this

I've got to hear.

Kimmy.

Kimmy.

Kimmy.

Kimmy. Kimmy. Kimmy.

Hey,

Jenny.

Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.

This is Marion Kitt. Marion, this is
Jenny Radner.

Hi. Hi.

Marion and I are doing a paper on how
ecology impacts foreign policy.

Um, good night.

Night.

It was nice to meet you.

So did the bartending yoga teacher ask
her out?

Would you?

You are so mean.

Oh, my God.

The diskette's inside.

Go ahead and make changes on that. The
original's on my laptop.

Thanks.

I think.

Is that girl okay?

Jenny? Oh, yeah.

Yeah, she's just stressing about school
or something.

Yeah. Been there.

She's had a couple of panic attacks.

We try not to act weird with her, but
you don't want to say the wrong thing.

I think I know what you mean.

You need a ride home?

You're going to freeze.

No, it's only a few blocks.

Okay. Be in class. Okay.

Bye. Good night.

Probably could have gotten along with a
smaller bag of pretzels.

Where is everybody, anyway?

Albert's visiting a friend at the
Hartford VA Hospital.

Yeah, I think Warren's following the
signs. We all know how far afield that

take him.

What about Marion?

I don't know.

Figured she'd be here.

She didn't call.

You okay?

I'm getting this image.

It's a circle and a line.

Uh, well, here.

Can you draw it?

Yep. Here you go.

Huh. That's the Greek letter theta.

Traditionally, it's a warning to death.

Mark asked about Marion.

And that's what I got.

No, no, no, no, no. I know what it is.

Marion's working on a history project
with a classmate from Theta Beta Phi,

sorority. You know, the thetas.

I'm sure that's what you're picking up
on. No, she's thinking about joining the

sorority. What makes you say that?

Marion is discovering terrifying things
about herself and the world right now. I

think she would grab at any chance for
so -called normalcy.

Well, you've heard the saying, you can't
push the river.

Marion will come to terms with her
calling, if that's what it is, in her

time.

Oh, my God.

What?

Why didn't someone stop me before I
finished this whole bag of malt balls?

It's okay. You're among friends.

Just don't hurl on the rug.

I'm going outside for my last cigarette.

What time is it anyway?

12 .30.

I've got an 8 o 'clock.

Me too.

Hey, hey, hey.

A little help here with the cleanup?

That's okay. I'll stay.

No, you're a guest.

It's the least I can do after scarfing
all these.

Ever thought about joining a sorority?

The school I transferred from didn't
have a Greek system.

I guess you've heard all those cliches
about how sororities are snobby and just

an excuse to party. And that isn't true?

Of course it's true.

Oh.

No. I think our house is pretty normal,
don't you?

Mm -hmm.

Everyone's really nice.

We don't give up anything to be fated.

It's...

More like we gain a family.

You better come upstairs.

What's wrong? We heard yelling and the
door's locked.

Not too much to ask, is it, old bitch?

You think I'm stupid?

You think I'm just gonna sit here and
take this?

Jenny, unlock the door. It's Lisa.

Jenny? What's wrong?

Who said you could talk? Who said you
could talk?

Who said you could...

troubled teenager.

Psychokinetic violence, that's a classic
poltergeist.

Except there are elements of what could
be possession.

Well, I think we've got to get inside
that house as soon as possible. No.

These are my friends.

Which should make it that much easier.

Well, it doesn't.

Well, Marion, what about the other
witnesses? I mean, didn't they think

was something kind of weird going on? I
don't know. It's an old house.

Maybe it's strong enough guts to win.
Could blow out the window.

Look, Marion, I opened a case file. We,
uh... No.

Please, I just want some part of my life
to be mine.

To be normal.

Elmer, you said I had a choice.

You do.

Right.

I just have to want to pretend that
nothing happened last night.

We've come apart and...

I wish you'd just move out. You know
what? Don't even go there, okay?

She's a good person. And I think if we
just give her a little support, she'll

fine.

At least she saw a shrink.

What did he say? He gave her
tranquilizers.

What is she taking them?

Jenny. Jenny, wake up.

Wow.

Wow.

Know anything about this?

No. Nothing.

No.

Look, Jenny, you need to get some
serious help.

You think I did this? No one's accusing
you. Hey, the alarm was on all night.

It was someone in the house. It wasn't
me.

Maybe it would be less stressful for you
if you moved out for a while.

I didn't. Just think about what I'm
saying.

I didn't do this.

She's not somebody we usually would have
pledged, but she was a legacy, so we

didn't have much of a choice.

But we tried to make her feel at home,
and figured after a while she'd open up.

And she didn't?

No.

She never really tried to fit in, which
isn't a crime, but now she's having

these episodes, and after a while she's
just going to say, get a grip.

That probably sounds harsh, and I do
feel sorry for her, but in the end we

to think what's best for the sorority.

Goddamn.

I forgot I have to copy some stuff.

So I'll just see you later, okay?

Okay. Bye.

Hey. Hey.

You were going to want to see this.

Six hours squinting into a microphone
reader, but it was worth it. Miles. All

right. Different landscaping. Same
house. Murder -suicide. August 24, 1957.

Miles. Now, the guy shot his wife and
hung himself six years before the

moved in. Now, the energy from an event
like that... Miles!

I didn't ask for any help on this.

No, you didn't, did you?

Was that her?

Miles. No, you're right. I'm pushing.
I'm sorry.

Well, I'll let you go.

You need to talk.

I always know where to find you.

Oh, my God.

She tried to drown me.

No.

No. I can't believe I was defending you.

Please, I didn't do this.

You never do it, Jenny.

Get out of this house.

Go! Get out!

What happened?

Oh, God, now what?

Jenny!

What happened?

Keep her here. I need to find out what's
going on.

Camomile with a little honey.

Thanks.

What's that?

It's my mom's charm bracelet.

Do your parents live around here?

Both my parents are dead.

I'm sorry.

I was seven.

Well, who raised you?

My grandmother.

She was a Theta, too.

Long time ago.

That's how I got in.

Are you thinking of pledging?

I haven't exactly been asked yet.

You will be.

You fit in.

When they first pledged me, I thought it
was the best thing that ever happened.

Because I fit in somewhere.

Yes, I knew it. It's too good to laugh.

When did these panic attacks start?

It was probably about a month ago.

And more and more since then.

Well, what do you think they're about?

Well, probably school.

See, you never told me where you were
from.

I grew up in Iowa.

You're a long way from home.

Further than I thought.

Where is Jenny now?

She got up this morning and went to
class.

She seems okay during the day.

It's the house. It's got to be the
house. But I only felt a presence there

time. Well, because of your friendship
with these women, you might not see what

you don't want to see.

Okay.

So what do we have to do?

Under the circumstances, maybe some kind
of deception is justified?

Elmer, I want to know what you think.

Well, something's oppressing that girl.

She needs help.

And right now, you're the only person
she trusts.

Wasn't a better way to do this? Probably
come to us on the way home.

Can I help you?

Hi. Ellen Pulaski, University Building
and Safety Council. You are?

Erin Carey. Hi, Erin.

We've been hired by the university to
conduct spot inspections of fraternity

sorority houses around campus.

For what?

Well, to help maintain the highest
possible standards of housing safety

compliance.

What's going on?

Some safety code thing?

University Building and Safety Council.

Please don't worry. There's no penalty
for infractions. We just want to help

to help yourselves.

Yeah, I read about that in the campus
paper.

Yeah? I don't see how it can hurt.

Okay. Okay.

Great. Excuse me.

See, we calculate the number of smoke
detectors based on the cubic footage of

the room.

Fifteen feet, four inches.

All righty.

Is she looking for something?

Oh, well, yeah, she helped recommend
placement for optimal coverage and

performance.

I didn't realize there was so much to
it.

Oh, safety is no accident.

I'll be back in a minute, okay?

Okay.

18 feet, 7 inches.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Yeah, for some reason I was suddenly
thinking about my father.

That's so weird.

Why?

When we first walked into the room,
something made me think about my father.

Well, you never know how a room's going
to affect you.

Any spirit present here in anger
confusion mischief Please let

yourself be known to us by the flame of
this candle

Could

you knock or disturb any object in the
room

Marion was right.

There's nothing in this house.

Well, what about the murder -suicide?

What can I tell you?

Tragedies don't always leave burnt -down
spirits.

So this whole embarrassing thing was a
waste of time.

Well, we had to be sure. Well, if the
house isn't haunted, then what's wrong

with Jenny?

Jenny?

Jenny?

Jenny?

Jenny? What's wrong?

It used to be like this.

But I got away.

Away from what?

I got away.

But now it's back.

Jenny.

Come on, we gotta get out of here.

No hope for whom? For Jenny, I guess.

It's not blood, though.

Well, what is it?

Jam.

Jam? How scary is that?

It's no joke. I have never felt this
kind of rage directed at one person. I

don't know what Jenny did to this
entity, but... It's probably too late

apology. Well, we have to find her. I'm
afraid she's going to hurt herself.

Would you go back to the sorority?

No, I called. They haven't seen her.
They have any idea where to start

They weren't very interested.

Sisterhood. It's powerful.

Will that help?

That's hers.

Three psychics and one missing person.

Odds should be in our favor, right?

Okay, I'm seeing water.

How much water? I don't know.

Now the water's gone, there are trees.

Gone because she's not there anymore?

A lot of trees.

It's like a park or a forest.

Park by the river?

Maybe.

Look, she's barefoot in a nightgown. How
far could she go?

A road.

A road.

A red road.

A road in a park by the river?

Ellen, you've got to give me a landmark,
a sign or something.

A ladder?

A ladder.

What's the matter?

Didn't you hear that?

What?

The train.

You're hearing what Jenny's hearing.

Maybe you weren't seeing a ladder.

Then what?

Railroad tracks.

River Street to Forest Avenue to Rose
Street.

You drew us a map.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Stop.

This is the car I saw if you've been
here.

It's okay.

It's all right.

You're safe now.

It's all right.

It's all right.

Why were you there, Jenny?

That was your house, wasn't it?

When you were a little girl.

Something terrible happened there.

Until now, you've had to face it alone.

I knew she wanted me too.

If he's been dead 12 years, why do you
wait so long to come after her?

He's not dead.

Not dead?

Well, then where is he?

I thought I was safe.

They said he could never get to me.

Elmer? Elmer!

Hey!

I'd say we are on the right track.

Find what you were looking for? Yeah.
According to the Department of Prisons,

Lewis Purdy is serving a life sentence
for first -degree murder at the Waltham

Correctional Facility. It's about an
hour's drive from here, outside of

Braintree.

Well, so what's our next move?

Well, I believe I should pay the man a
visit.

Right, right.

How'd you go about doing that?

You said yourself it's only an hour from
here.

Yeah.

Okay, well, I'll go gas the car up and
I'll swing back by for you. Gas up the

car? Yeah.

You do that.

Six weeks ago, he collapsed in the yard.
Grand mal seizure, but no history of

epilepsy. We got him an x -ray.

We discovered a .22 caliber slug lodged
near the Sylvian fissure.

Judging from the scar, it's been there a
long time.

Got him into the OR and we're about to
go in after it when he coded.

And by the time we got his heart going
again, it was too risky to operate.

been controlling the convulsions with
phenytoin and phenobarbital.

Appears to be effective.

On the convulsions, yeah, but he's been
non -communicative since surgery.

No speech, no affect.

He's just not all there anymore.

Well, keep an eye on him.

What else we got?

Knowing what I do, I'm just sorry your
daughter wasn't a better shot.

Thank you, Mr. Purdy. I've seen what I
came for.

You can't help.

I beg your pardon?

You can't help.

It's too strong.

What's too strong?

The bond between a father and his child.

Hey, I'm back.

Sorry that took so long, but I thought
I'd better stop and get some cash.

We can make up the time. I'll jump on
the 93 Expressway going south. Send me

Marion's.

Marion's? What about Purdy? I've already
seen him.

Louis Purdy died on the operating table.

But before they brought him back, I
believe he left his body for the first

After that, he must have taught himself
to do it at will.

We used to call it stepping out.

Not as uncommon a practice as you might
think.

Today, we call them OBEs. Out -of -body
experiences.

In fact, the neurological signature of
the brain during an OBE is the theta

wave. There's also evidence they've been
able to induce OBEs in the laboratory

by applying an electrical current to the
sylvian fissure near the right temporal

lobe, which is where the bullet launched
in Purdy's brain.

This is ridiculous.

I haven't seen my father in over 12
years.

Jenny.

The little girl.

Watch Tim kill her mother.

Still waiting in that closet to be
rescued.

Until that happens, she'll never be free
of him.

He'll follow her fear like a shark
follows blood.

Why did I listen to you?

Jenny. This is not my father.

I have put that life and everything in
it behind me.

I have made a new life with friends and
honor roll and good

school.

I'm a different person.

He has no power over me.

Come on, Elmer.

She's like ice.

He's drawing the energy from her.

jenny you have to go back one more time
no i'll be with you

Are you okay?

Nothing broken.

Uh -oh.

Spoke too soon.

What are you smiling about?

I was just thinking about the little
girl who walked into my living room a

back and said,

I'm not one of you.

I'm proud of you.

Thanks, Elmer.

But I don't feel like I know anything
anymore.

You know more than you think.

This might sting.

Yeah,

a little bit.

Sorry.

The sun's coming up.

Gonna be a beautiful day.

Yeah.
