All language subtitles for High Potential 02x06 Chasing Ghosts [2025-10-21 22-00] uswabc HQ

Where do I have to put it?

Anywhere you want.

As long as the pumpkin touches the
porch.

Amy, we should just go to the party.
Come on, show some backbone.

We've both done it.

You okay?

Guess who I am.

Uh, a sassy friar?

Hang on.

Dad ordered this for me on time to be
sure I got here before Halloween.

How about now?

Okay, uh, a science friar.

I'm Gavernicus.

He was the first one to realize the sun
is at the center of the solar system.

Oh, yeah.

Okay. Yeah, I see it. I love it. I love
it.

Jeez, fell asleep, huh?

What's that?

Well, this is...

Let's just say it's the reason your
sister and I aren't exactly talking

now. What's she doing? Is she still up
to? She's barely come out of her room

since you got at her. I think you should
talk to her. Oh, you do?

Okay, well, thank you for your advice,
but I think I'm going to Aristotle this

one.

Aristotle, you thought silence was
louder than yelling?

Close enough.

Yes, but Aristotle also believed anger
must always be within the golden mean,

not excessive, at the right time for the
right purpose.

Dead on, kid.

All right, fine. I'm going to talk to
her at some point. Don't worry about it.

Oh, I got a work thing I got to go to.
You? Go to bed. Why are you still even

up? Go.

I love the costume.

This is perfect.

It's our first Halloween together.

Is it?

Yeah. Hop on in here, buddy.

I'm not eating candy to crimson.

Right, right. Why have fun?

I would have thought Halloween was your
favorite holiday.

Why would you think that?

It's like the one day of the year you
can let your hair down, throw a costume

on, be somebody other than you for one
night.

Just take a seat.

Okay, I was wrong.

Can we focus on our dead men? Yeah,
let's do that.

This is Danny Sternblatt, divorce lawyer
to the 1%, including the mayor when he

split from his wife last year.

What happened to the walls?

Who killed the lights the electricity is
on in the block?

That's the motion -centered werewolf
across the street.

No!

He knows.

The power was cut at the main panel, as
in severed, not sure yet by whom or who

went to the walls.

Also, the 911 call was unusual.

A group of teens said that they heard a
scream through the window and claimed to

see something white and flowy attacking
them.

White and flowy?

Come on. As far as I'm concerned, it
could have been the curtains.

Yeah, or their imaginations.

Could be Sternblatt just died of natural
causes, which is part of what we're

here to find out. Okay, well, he's got
marks on his arm. Looks like somebody

grabbed him real hard. Or Danny grabbed
his own arm, maybe during a medical

event, perhaps a heart attack, shooting
pain down the arm.

Certainly or something.

Uh -huh. His hair is either falling out
or he's pulling it out.

That with the dark bags under his eyes.
I don't think Danny was sleeping very

well.

Well, we know who murdered the woodwork.
These blisters on Danny's hand say he

was the vandal.

Benzo's for sleep, which clearly weren't
working very well.

And heart meds, natural blister. It's
another point for natural causes.

I'm thinking he was sitting over here
working when his heart gave out, knocked

over his plate on his way down, and
ended up there.

At least he won't have to read his own
handwriting anymore.

Something doesn't make sense here,
though.

Imagine you're Danny.

He's having a heart attack.

You know you have a bad heart. You have
life -saving medication over there. Why

would you run away from the bathroom?

He must be going towards something this
way.

Obsidian or black tourmaline? Why this?

Maybe an ugly gift from a wife? Could
be. Danny's going through his own

We contacted the wife, Lorraine. She's
on business in London, catching the

flight back. So the white flowy thing,
not a wife.

Depends which wife.

Lorraine Sternblatt or the ghost of
Mattie St. Croix?

Sorry, did you just say ghost?

Mm -hmm.

Okay, just to be clear, I am not
suggesting a ghost killed Danny

You're not not suggesting it. I like
true crime podcasts, sometimes ghost

stories, no shame there. And the Spencer
House, where we are now, checks both.

Have you heard of Dash Spencer and
Maddie St. Croix?

1940s movie stars, screwball comedies,
mostly involved a monkey. Well, they

married in real life, too. They ate a
couple of their day, and this was their

house. Got that from Spencer House.

They died young, right? Well, a little
after they married, Maddie found out

had been cheating on her from day one.

And in a fit of heartbreak, she took her
own life with an overdose of secco

-barbitol. Then, a few months later, on
Halloween, Dash fell from that balcony

and broke his neck.

Which is called a coincidence. Police
ruled the death accidental.

Yes. But the ghost story crowd always
said Maddie's ghost pushed Dash over the

rail. And that she still haunts the
house today.

Look, I am not saying I believe that.
Good, because a ghost definitely did not

kill Danny Sternblatt. We have two
options.

It's either murder or natural causes.

Lieutenant. I'm sending you a text. The
kids who called 911 sat with our sketch

artist. I'm curious to hear your take.

What? What is it?

Sorry, you were just saying...

They even nailed the scalloped lace on
Maddie's veil.

Fine, then you explain it. What did they
see? That photo, Dad.

You found it online.

They could have, too.

It's a Halloween prank.

They did say they came to the house
because of its history.

Verbena. It's calming.

Emmy's prelim is in.

Danny Sternbleck died of a heart attack.

It wasn't his first. He had one a few
years ago. So unless we have something

that proves otherwise, they're going to
rule natural causes.

Anyone else feel that?

No. Here.

Isn't it salt?

Oh, we might want to pump the brakes on
the natural causes.

Because? Because Oz is right.

At first I thought it was just plaster
dust, but it's not.

It's salt.

Yeah, look.

The salt leads to fluorite, carnelian.

Labradorite, obsidian, and I'm thinking
smoky quartz.

Five stones connected by salt.

Danny made a pentacle. It's a symbol of
protection in some cultures.

And so is that bracelet.

Detective Karadek might not believe in
ghosts, but our victim did.

Danny thought his house was haunted.

He was hearing and seeing all kinds of
crazy things he couldn't pinpoint, so he

trashed this entire place trying to
figure out where it was coming from.

Guy had electricians, pest control,
plumbers. Everyone checked this place

Okay, Danny was hearing things that go
bump in the night, but we know it wasn't

a ghost.

I think somebody who knew Danny had a
bad heart staged a haunting to scare him

to death.

That would be murder. All this witchy
stuff is not Danny's style.

Somebody had to help him set it up. And
someone who could stop a haunt might be

able to fake one.

Danny's phone is password protected.
It's going to take TID some time to

it. Any of those invoices over there
have something to do with...

Ghost remediation?

Um... No.

But there is this.

And just for my file, the full name is
Calliope... Just Calliope.

I knew something felt off today.

What was the nature of your relationship
with Mr. Sternblatt? Verbena?

It's good for stress.

Oh, thank you. We got our fill of the
crime scene.

I was Danny's spiritual advisor.

He was raised in a traditional faith and
never really connected with it, so when

he reached a crossroads in life, he
preferred to ask the universe.

Spiritual, not religious.

Would you mind?

We did a very difficult reading for our
client this morning. We need time to

ground.

What sort of crossroads did you talk
about with Danny?

Business mostly.

Managing his law firm, sometimes
investments.

Investments like buying the Spencer
house?

Especially at the Spencer house. He
wouldn't sleep there until I performed a

clearing ritual.

But it was his wife's dream of dream
houses.

Sadly, the work I performed there didn't
last after Lorraine left something dark

welled up. So you're the one who helped
him set up all those protective

elements, right?

Have you been in the house? Mm -hmm. So
you felt the cold spot in the basement,

heard the crying woman?

Mm -hmm. Can't say that we have. Where
was this?

In the butler's pantry.

Well, that's where I heard her.

Danny heard her at the same time in the
sitting room across the house.

The energy in that place is very off.

Yeah. Hey, how much do each of these
clearing rituals cost?

Around $5 ,000.

Dollars? Yes. Why?

I need a minute to ground.

What my partner is saying is it seems
you caught yourself a whale. Danny was

terrified and more than willing to shell
out.

Yeah, and these rituals didn't work, but
you knew that, didn't you?

This green candle over here, you got it
just drenched in bergamot and myrtle.

That's an abundance spell, right?

Only typically those are done during a
waxing moon, and right now the moon's

waning. You know your stuff.

Ah, my cleaning lady must have flipped
that.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, I think I do know my
stuff. I also know that a woman who

to herself and her tarot deck as we
doesn't need to consult a calendar.

To find out the moon phases.

Are you calling me a fraud? I am.

So, Calliope, what happened? Did Danny
catch on to your scam? Cut off the funds

so you scared him to death?

No, why would I do that? My entire
business would collapse if people found

my clients were dying.

Now, unless I am under arrest, please
leave and take your clothed hearts with

you. This is a sacred space.

This is a bungalow in El Segundo.
Morgan, let's go.

If you don't believe the Spencer house
is haunted, fine.

But the things I told you did happen. So
perhaps focus less on me.

And look into what caused them.

What? She put me in a bad mood.

When were you in a good mood?

I'm a delight.

Well, fraud or no fraud, Clappy made a
good point. It wasn't in her best

interest to kill her golden goose. And
she gave specifics we can use. A cold

spot in the basement, a woman crying.

Someone planted those scares to freak
Sternblatt out. And maybe they left some

evidence behind.

Yeah. Hey.

How's it going down there?

Uh, great.

I like spiders.

Otherwise, not much to report.

You? Just a rat. Cute little guy. Or
gal.

Not a lot of differentiating
characteristics.

Morgan?

Calliope said that they heard a woman
crying in two different parts of the

house, right?

Well, my kids used to talk to each
other.

through the vents in their bedrooms.

I think you're going to want to see
this.

Morgan, where are you? What's going on?
Just tell me.

Someone or something.

LAPD, put your hands where I can see
them.

We got another runner.

Not what I was expecting.

On your feet.

On your feet.

Let me go. I didn't do anything.

All right.

Found this in a vent.

Let's see.

Okay. A couple of iPads. Some computer
stuff. Just standard things that

somebody's hiding in a basement wearing.
wedding dress would have.

I'm guessing these are yours. Come on,
let's go to the station. You can tell me

more about how you were doing. Easy,
easy.

Oh, thank goodness.

Hate to think anybody was getting any
sunlight.

I've been outside.

Wasn't impressed.

How's work? Pretty good. I helped stop a
fleeing suspect today.

Mostly by just standing there. But
still, the job got done.

She's being questioned right now, so I
had a little time. I thought I'd come

home and get dinner started before Ludo
gets here. Then I gotta head back.

How were your days?

Chloe go down for her nap, okay?

Uh, yeah. Ava got Chloe down, no
problem.

School was the usual. I'm pretty sure
Mr. Cabral doesn't know the difference

between math and weight. But don't
worry, I pulled him aside after class.

I bet he loved that.

So what do you think? Burritos okay for
dinner?

Still doing this, huh?

Ava was invited to a Halloween party
this weekend, and she really wants to

but I think she's still upset that she's
grounded.

Really? You think it might be a smart
idea to apologize for blatantly

me first, and then we could go from
there?

Ava thinks that she didn't do anything
wrong.

It's not your job to fix this, okay?

We're all right. Why don't you go do
something that doesn't involve a screen?

Okay.

Ava, how long do you want to play this
game? Mom, it's been a week. This is so

unfair.

Children are such a blessing.

Jack and Wagner, forward.

Anytime. This case is a weird one, huh?
It is.

It's not every day a captain insists on
questioning a suspect himself.

Oh, come on. A woman in an antique
wedding dress pretending to be a ghost

scare a man to death? How often do one
of those come along?

The mayor's a family friend.

Wants updates.

Pretty sure he and half his golf buddies
want this case closed before

Sternblatt's law practice and all their
divorce details get dragged through the

mud. I see.

Shouldn't affect you, though. I provide
cover. You work the case. Long as it

takes. That's a nice sentiment, only I
just got off the phone with the

Department of Media.

They were fact -checking a press release
about the arrest.

The one I assume you're holding right
now?

Rushing this out when we don't have the
facts yet doesn't seem to me like

letting the wheels of justice turn.

This arrest.

Sloppy police work?

No. She's our haunter.

Then you have nothing to worry about.

Shauna Kermy.

That's K -H -U.

Is the furniture small?

No, you're big.

Guess the world wasn't built for...

People my size, huh?

Anyway, it's Kermie, K -H -U -R -M -I,
27, special effects whiz, electrical

engineering. Oh, CalArts grad. Wow.

I've asked for a lawyer.

Yes. I heard.

As is your right, it's just that this
release is going to go out before they

here. So I thought I'd give you a
chance. So it is true. New capstone, the

view.

Mind if I watch?

Knock yourself out.

You know, I won't lie.

Lawyers hate these releases.

Court of public opinion.

Once we tell the world you're a killer,
good luck convincing a jury otherwise.

But we're just going to go with what we
know. You applied your skills to stage a

high -tech haunt spanning a matter of
months. You used your fancy toys and an

inspired cameo as the ghost of Maddie
St. Croix that led to the death of

You killed him.

And then you saw those kids at the
window. You knew the cops were coming

right? At least that's the story now.

But, you know, I know you have a lot of
student debt, and I also can't tie you

to Sternblatt, which means someone paid
you.

Shauna, give me their name.

And this press release disappears.

You don't get labeled a killer, and this
whole thing comes grinding to a halt.

Help me help you.

I tried to save him, but I don't know
CPR, and she never told me about his

condition. She who?

Danny's wife, Lorraine.

It's good.

It's good work.

Sure, but he still could have told her.

Lorraine back in town yet?

She should have just landed. She did say
something about having to stop by her

office first before coming to see us.
Well, then have Carradick and Morgan

her there. I think she'll be a good
friend.

I'm just trying to make sure you're
taken care of. No, you're not. You're

to make sure you're taken care of. You
always loved that house more than you

loved my dad.

Excuse me.

LAPD.

Did you just say Danny Sternblatt was
your dad?

Yeah, I'm Paloma Nichols. I'm really
sorry for your loss. It doesn't sound

Lorraine in there is your mom.

Dad's second wife. He and my mom split
ages ago.

Wait, do you think Lorraine had
something to do with his death?

That's too soon to comment.

I wouldn't put it past her. She invited
me here to supposedly make peace.

Really, she wanted to feel out my
intentions.

My dad's body isn't even cold yet.

I'm sorry, Ms. Nichols.

We may have some questions for you, too.
Is there any way we can reach you?

It's Dr. Nichols.

Here's all my info.

When you are ready to comment, I'd love
to hear it.

Joni, I'm Wyatt.

I'm going to head home.

Hey, if the police call again, let them
know I'll go there in the morning.

Saved you the trip.

Ms. Kermie identified you by name.

Says you met when you spoke at a class
she took and a few months later you

approached her for help with a haunting
and offered her a job at your firm in

exchange. Shona says she had no idea
about Danny's heart and we believe her.

The problem is you did know because he'd
had a previous heart attack when you

guys were married.

I know.

His recovery was the last time I could
remember us being good to each other.

So it sounds like you did love each
other at one point.

Yeah, I mean...

He used to write me these letters all
the time.

We were one of history's great couples,
like Dash and Maddie.

Until Danny started acting a little too
much like Dash and cheated on you.

I was devastated.

And then when I decided that I had
enough, he used every trick against me.

changed locks while I was traveling,
swore I'd never get the house.

It was all about winning. So you decided
to play dirty, too, and use the

superstitions to get what you wanted?

Listen, I know that it went too far, but
I never wanted to kill him. I just

wanted the house.

I mean, I figured if I spooked him
enough, he would just sign it over.

Wait, you... You met his daughter on her
way out. The house was in Danny's name.

He left it to her.

She would inherit the house.

You needed him to give it over to you
while he was alive.

Yeah, well, it doesn't change the fact
that he's dead, and I have to live with

that.

Wait, is this Danny's handwriting?

Oh, this doesn't look anything like the
letters at the house.

That writing was really messy, shaky,
like his hands were weak.

Also, I think he was off balance.

That poor guy was stumbling all over the
place like the undead.

Carradoc, I think we've got to check
those sleeping pills. I'll have the ME

track as docs report.

Wait, what's going on?

You could have scared Danny to death,
but I don't think you did.

I think he was poisoned.

Lab reports are back.

Those weren't sleeping pills.

Danny Sternblatt died from a potassium
chloride overdose, which induced a fatal

heart attack.

Emmy said it was a smart way to kill
someone.

Potassium chloride spikes naturally in
the blood after death.

Autopsy never would have caught it.
Which means if we hadn't tested those

Lorraine Sternblatt would have gone down
for a murder she didn't commit.

Solid catch by Morgan.

So, someone knew the wife was
gaslighting Danny and piggybacked on

it look like she haunted him to death.

Who? Had to be someone close to him.
Someone with access to the pills.

You take a closer look at the daughter?

The woman will get the house, but the
money motive feels weak. She's an

orthopedic surgeon married to another
orthopedic surgeon. She's fine.

What about Sternblatt's practice?

Didn't the wife say he was tough as
nails? Yeah, said he used every nasty

in the book. He even came up with some
notes.

Maybe a divorcee he did a number on
wanted revenge?

Or maybe a rival lawyer. We'll head over
to his firm. The guy had enemies over

there. We'll find out.

He was murdered?

Oh, my God.

I figured his heart just gave out. Were
you aware Mr. Sternblatt thought that

his house was, um, haunted?

He made it impossible not to know.

Danny was freaking everyone out. That
woo -woo bracelet, jumping at shadows.

We're wondering if anyone he went up
against with in court might have known

that, too, and used that knowledge
against him.

I wish.

Well, I'm sorry.

That came out wrong. I just meant that
Danny wasn't in court any time recently.

He was too wrapped up in his own divorce
and waiting in that damn house. He had

it off all his other cases months ago.
Stopped coming in at all the last few

weeks.

Look, I was worried about my friend.

Wouldn't you be?

I've had it. I'll have to call my wife.

Well, sounds like Sternblatt wasn't
making any enemies here. Took himself

completely off the board.

Mm -hmm.

Feels like all roads keep leading back
to Spencer House.

What do you say we give Daphne's ghost
here another run?

I just do not get this guy.

I mean, digging in out of spite, that's
one thing. But Sternblatt hated the

house. He wasn't sleeping. He knew he
had a bad heart. At a certain point, she

would think that the fear of having a
heart attack would override the desire

win a divorce.

You're missing out, Guillory. Looks like
one of your crime boards exploded all

over our victim's office.

Only in every direction, it's nothing
but house, house, house.

Maybe it is something.

What's that?

Well, I was doing a little digging
around in the Sternblatt divorce

trying to find something that would pop
out as a motive to kill Danny.

And? Nothing popped. But then I noticed
something weird about the house.

The appraisal when they bought it showed
it as 300 square feet smaller than it

was when it was appraised in the 1940s.
I mean, maybe that's a mistake, but...

No.

Now it's here on the blueprints too.

300 square foot difference between the
old and the new.

How could they lose 300 square feet?

But the footprints look exactly the
same. It's like there's a disappearing

I don't think we're done there yet,
boys.

I think the Spencer house has more
secrets to tell.

And I'm sensing you have a way of
figuring that out.

He didn't need to straighten that.

Mind if I ask why you pulled half my
bullpen down here?

Do you mind if I answer in the form of a
story? Don't answer that. It's

happening. It's starting right now. Deep
in the gloomy glens of ancient Scotland

stands Castle Glam.

Legend has it that the heir of the 11th
Earl of Strathmore was hidden away in a

secret room that was walled up, never to
be seen again.

But then, a few hundred years later,
there was a new lady of the castle, and

set out to find the infamous hidden
chamber.

This lady glams knew that if a room had
actually been walled up, that it would

still have a window. So she asked her
lady been waiting to tie a handkerchief

every window they could find.

And lo and behold, only one window
remained that was hanky -free from the

outside. And that was how she found the
secret room.

And there it is.

I'm guessing this was Lorraine's craft
room before Danny booted her up.

Hey, that secret room's got to be behind
these bookshelves.

Oh!

You see it?

Why don't you help us see it?

This panel, it's plain sawn.

It has to do with how they cut the
lumber. These shelves are all quarter

so is the rest of the house, but this
panel is plain sawn.

Maybe Danny broke that panel when he was
tearing this place up and then repaired

it, but why only make the one fix?

Maybe to hide this?

This is Maddie's old boudoir.

Oh, and that hat.

That's the hat that she wore to the
premiere of the last film she made with

Dash. Can I try a couple of these things
on before they get shipped off to some

museum? They're evidence.

I'll be careful. So we think this room's
been tucked away for 70 -plus years?

Oh, well, Maddie took her own life. Dash
must have walled it up. Probably

because his conscience couldn't handle
any reminders of a woman he'd driven to

suicide. Okay, check out this gem. This
room might have never been found if

Lorraine hadn't started haunting Danny.
This room is part of history. Why would

Danny want to hide that from the world?

Same reason he didn't leave when he
started being haunted.

Gotta be something in here worth
sticking around for.

Like this?

Oh, yeah, that would do it. Speaking of
gems... It's the only thing not covered

in dust.

There is a rumor that when Maddie caught
Dash with his mistress, he tried to

make it up to her with a diamond
necklace. If those diamonds are real...

real. They'd be worth enough to kill
for.

Hey.

Want some of this?

I figure we deserve a little unwind
while we wait to see if that necklace

found is real.

Root beer?

on an unprotected lip. You're a madman.

I'll take it slow.

Did I shame you into that?

No, no. It was time.

All winning streaks have to come to an
end. Is that what we're calling it?

It's okay. I'll take the can.

Hey, you a Dash and Maddie fan?

Yeah,

I was.

A little disappointed in all the gory
details.

Yeah, this case isn't a ringing
endorsement for marriage.

Ever been?

Married? No.

No.

I mean, weddings are great. It's very
sweet. I get it.

It's good for people. The whole
courthouse and the paperwork and the

of it, you know, kind of kills the
romance.

Yeah? Oh, just seeing some things.

I don't think you are. If this was an
interrogation... It's not, though. It's

not an interrogation. So, knock it off.

Well, now I know I'm right.

Okay.

Fine. What things are you seeing?

Well, first of all, you're gripping that
can so tight, I'm worried you're going

to be wearing the soda.

The neck massage, a little self
-soothing, fiddling with the candy.

of yours are jumping around everywhere
but mine. I think the talk of marriage

making you a little anxious.

Okay.

Yeah.

Yeah, I don't like it, you know.

My brain has a way of making sure
relationships don't last.

very long so let's just leave it at that
okay what about you me oh i'm into

a four -year deal that's working out
pretty well really yeah she understands

and for the most part i understand her

she's gorgeous thanks you have a name

ingrid well congratulations ingrid seems
like a real catch thank you what about

an actual human woman have you ever
married one of those

Got real close.

She passed away a few years ago.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, me too.

Looks like they need us.

18 -karat white gold waterfall.

102 cushion antique cut diamonds.

85 French cut for a grand total of 317
carats.

Designed in Paris by celebrated sisters
Ophelia and Josephine Beaumont in 1946.

Strong accent.

So it's authentic?

According to our contact.

Based on the piece itself, she said it
was worth around $10 million.

That and a sexy Providence with a tragic
Hollywood ending and you what? Double

the price?

Sounds about right.

So why was it still there?

Sternblatt must have ballparked its
worth. Why didn't he put it in Fort Knox

try to find a tycoon to buy it?

The guy was a divorce attorney. Nobody
knew better than him that if Lorraine

found out, she could claim half. So
we're thinking he opted to leave it

the wall until the divorce was final.

Anything else would have been too risky.

Then he could sell it and make up a
story about where he found it. But

else knew it was there. And their plan
was to kill Danny, steal the necklace.

Until the kids saw Shauna being Maddie's
ghost and got us down there so fast,

the killer missed the window to complete
the theft.

Well, the good news is this person
doesn't know we have a necklace, so that

could be a good... I don't think Danny
was sleeping

very well. The energy in my body is very
off.

You're going to make sure you're taking
this.

You know who did it, don't you?

Yeah.

So?

So let's give them their window.

Based on evidence uncovered by
detectives in LAPD's major crime squad,

arrested Lorraine Sternblatt on
suspicion of poisoning her estranged

noted attorney Daniel Sternblatt.

You must be devastated.

If it helps to ease your mind, those who
cross over no longer feel the pain we

do.

That's what I'm not so sure of.

The crossing over.

I went there this morning. The police
released the house to me.

Maybe it's all the stress talking,
but...

I felt him there.

Well, energy can linger. But then he
could be in pain.

Trapped.

Wait. Can you help him?

Of course.

I would recommend a clearing ritual.

All I would need is a few hours to
myself in the house.

And then I think we can put him to rest.

Under the wind, the sun, or the rain. It
can be like day or... Come on,

baby.

Baby, take my hand.

Come on, baby.

Boo.

Oh,

I know that look.

That's the who are you and how'd you
guys figure me out look. Hey, partner,

want to start this one off? Sure. Did
you know...

To get rid of decades of tarnish from a
priceless diamond necklace, all you need

is a dab of essential oil. Now, I would
recommend verbena.

Supposedly, it's good for stress.

Yeah, she's crazy about that verbena.

You see, when I saw a bunch of tarnish
-free fingerprints on those links, that

very calming smell led me to believe
that you knew about the necklace all

I think Danny told you that he was being
haunted, and you jumped right on that

opportunity. You knew somebody else was
already gaslighting this very gullible

man. How they were doing it didn't
really matter. You didn't care. All you

needed to do was draft off of their
haunting and collect your paycheck.

Poor Danny trusted you so much that when
he found Maddie's necklace, he told you

about it, right? I mean, after all, he
never made a move in this house without

consulting you. And you came up with a
plan to kill him.

That's right.

You switched out his sleeping pills for
potassium chloride.

And you convinced him to check in with
you every morning to discuss all of the

creepy things that happened the evening
before.

You see, we have a tech team. They
cracked Danny's phone, and we saw the

So the day you didn't receive one, you
knew that Danny had had his coronary

event. If your plan had worked, you
could have just came back here and

the necklace.

But the police got here too fast, didn't
they? Blew your window. So we tried to

help you out. We staged an arrest for
Lorraine. That way, Paloma could lure

back into the house.

Guess it worked.

Happy Halloween.

You're under arrest.

Here, Dick.

Where's the bird?

Bird? Yeah, that giant, awesome black
raven that was perched on the clock,

casting a super creepy shadow when we
first got here. Do you remember?

I guess I was just focused on the body.
Don't know what to tell you.

Hey. Hey.

I heard you out here.

You did?

It's a very loud sigh.

Love it.

Can I go first?

Depends. It's all your fault. No. No,
no. I mean, you're mad at a younger you.

I'm not like you in a lot of ways, but
I'm way too much like you and others.

Did you always listen to your mom?

I mean... Of course not.

It makes me think that the 15 -year -old
you would have done exactly what I did.

Because me and you... You and I... You
and I aren't wired to just sit by

if we want something.

I mean, there's this guy that might be
able to tell us about my dad, and I was

just supposed to do nothing.

I know it wasn't the safest thing to do,
but when all you guys were going to our

favorite diner, I just couldn't help
myself.

So, I'm sorry I scared you.

But I'm not sorry that I went.

I'm done.

Your turn.

Okay.

I accept your non -apology.

And I'm not sorry that I put my foot
down.

I can't keep looking for your dad if it
means you're not going to be safe.

I need you to keep looking for him.

So if that means I have to start
listening, then I guess I will.

There she is.

I love you so much. I love you too, Mom.

So am I still grounded?

Why don't you ask me the question you
really want to ask me?

Can I go to Emma's Halloween party?

Depends. How inappropriate is your
costume?

Zombie cheerleader and my skirt's longer
than yours.

That's fair.

Can I show you?

Yes, but I want to show you something
first.

Okay. Come here.

Is that... That's it?

Have you opened it?

Yeah.

It took me a minute, but I got there.

And?

I don't know yet.

I don't know if any of it means anything
or if it's going to help us find him.

Can we? Yeah.

I'm going to give all this stuff to
Lieutenant Soto tomorrow, but I wanted

make sure that you saw this.

This was from my recital.

Mm -hmm.

First grade.

You guys were all sunflowers, do you
remember?

How did he know about that?

Well,

I think he must have been there.
