So...
508
00:39:57,629 --> 00:39:59,723
We weren't responsible
for her death after all?
509
00:40:00,732 --> 00:40:02,098
Any of us?
510
00:40:02,934 --> 00:40:06,234
TESSA: Oh, my God. LIAM:
"You are not responsible."
511
00:40:07,071 --> 00:40:11,031
That's what she was trying to
spell out with the Ouija board.
512
00:40:11,109 --> 00:40:12,975
That's why she
came back, isn't it?
513
00:40:13,678 --> 00:40:14,805
I wish it was.
514
00:40:15,980 --> 00:40:17,039
What do you mean?
515
00:40:17,148 --> 00:40:19,845
I read in the newspaper that
the police found Sash's body
516
00:40:19,918 --> 00:40:21,648
10 yards from where
the car crashed.
517
00:40:22,186 --> 00:40:23,745
That's crazy. That...
518
00:40:23,821 --> 00:40:25,983
That's stupid. We moved her.
519
00:40:26,424 --> 00:40:28,552
We put her in the driving seat.
520
00:40:28,626 --> 00:40:32,358
You were confused. You all
were. You still are, aren't you?
521
00:40:34,599 --> 00:40:37,398
What's going on? If you
know something, tell us.
522
00:41:26,918 --> 00:41:28,682
(GAGGING)
523
00:41:30,154 --> 00:41:32,817
It must be difficult.
Have you, um...
524
00:41:33,424 --> 00:41:36,986
Have you talked with the other
kids who were in the car? Her friends?
525
00:41:37,061 --> 00:41:38,154
What are you talking about?
526
00:41:38,930 --> 00:41:40,474
Just that they must
be having a hard time...
527
00:41:40,498 --> 00:41:43,024
- What... What are you talking about?
- Adjusting...
528
00:41:45,470 --> 00:41:48,406
I saw your photographs
in the newspaper.
529
00:41:50,074 --> 00:41:51,736
I read your names.
530
00:41:52,944 --> 00:41:57,075
Four teenagers side by side,
killed outright in a car crash.
531
00:41:59,550 --> 00:42:03,009
Everything that you've experienced
since then has seemed real to you.
532
00:42:03,087 --> 00:42:04,988
But for most people...
533
00:42:05,056 --> 00:42:07,491
- (INAUDIBLE)
- You were simply gone.
534
00:42:15,099 --> 00:42:20,197
That's why everything's
felt dreamlike and unreal.
535
00:42:25,610 --> 00:42:27,772
You've been in
limbo since the crash
536
00:42:27,845 --> 00:42:31,839
because you thought that it
was your fault that Sash died.
537
00:42:31,916 --> 00:42:35,250
Your guilt has prevented
you from crossing over but...
538
00:42:36,287 --> 00:42:38,085
It wasn't your fault.
539
00:42:40,391 --> 00:42:44,522
Sash came back not
because she needed help
540
00:42:44,595 --> 00:42:48,760
but because she wanted to help you.
But your denial kept blocking her out.
541
00:42:48,833 --> 00:42:52,031
And that's what she was trying
to tell you via the Ouija board.
542
00:42:52,770 --> 00:42:53,863
"You are not..."
543
00:42:53,971 --> 00:42:54,971
"Alive."
544
00:43:33,478 --> 00:43:34,478
Thank you.
545
00:44:18,022 --> 00:44:19,251
(HONKING)
546
00:44:20,458 --> 00:44:22,984
We can't keep on
meeting like this.
547
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,773
Oh, that's Kirsty, me youngest.
548
00:44:39,243 --> 00:44:41,474
Doing biochemistry at Bath.
549
00:44:42,013 --> 00:44:45,211
(CHUCKLES) Must have
got her brains from her mum.
550
00:44:46,484 --> 00:44:49,113
Picked her up from
a twenty-first at Wells.
551
00:44:49,187 --> 00:44:50,464
Couldn't have her
hanging round the streets
552
00:44:50,488 --> 00:44:52,252
freezing her
dimples off, could I?
553
00:44:52,323 --> 00:44:54,883
- KIRSTY: Dad, shut up!
- (MINI-CAB DRIVER LAUGHS)
554
00:45:05,169 --> 00:45:07,638
ROBERT: Alison,
pick up the phone.
555
00:45:08,573 --> 00:45:11,771
Please, Alison, pick up
the phone if you're there.
556
00:45:11,842 --> 00:45:13,743
Alison, are you there?
557
00:45:14,779 --> 00:45:16,372
(SIGHS) Alison?
558
00:45:23,921 --> 00:45:25,082
