Original subtitles

Previously on School Spirits.

Patty, you okay?

Can I stay at your place tonight? I saw the universe, Rhonda.

Whoa, whoa, wait, hey.

I just want to find out what happened to Tracy and if she knew how I felt about

her. I will help you find your flute player.

Olivia's mom, the superintendent, doesn't just want to move us to a

different school.

She wants to bulldoze the old one to the ground.

Nine people died in the church that was on the site. Eight were children. And

now the memory of whatever happened.

is trapped here too.

Wait, that's how it happened? What was going on upstairs?

What hit the floor? A body?

I'm so confused.

That's everything I saw.

It's what he showed me.

It wasn't a bedtime story, guys. He grabbed Simon and he made him look into

his milky white eyes and then he transmitted.

It. It was like a mind meld. Why'd you let Mr. Wide Eyes get that close to him?

I told you, he just pounced on him. I thought you said he was hella old. Yeah,

he was hella old, but he's also not like Colonel Sanders, okay? He's fast, and

he's T-Rex tall.

Are you sure you're okay?

Yeah.

Well, I'm good.

What happened after the mind meld? Did he just disappear in a poof? No, can we

not use that word? Once he let go of Simon, we just got the hell out of

there. But why transmit that story?

Well, we know that eight children and one adult perished in that flood.

So is White Eyes, or whatever we're calling him, the one adult who drowned?

Is he Alfred Van Hite? Okay, clearly there is more to this story, and we're

not going to know it unless we go down there. Are you volunteering?

No. No, I can wait. Okay.

Simon, can you let us deal with this and not you?

He didn't hurt me.

Not yet.

Some animals like to play with their food before they eat it. I think we all

need to go. All right, there's strength in numbers, and if T-Rex can really thin

the veil... We have to do it.

Not me.

I'm gonna... sit this one out.

I'm happy to stay up here and keep Simon company.

What? He said he was giant.

Okay, I've had some not-so-great experiences with people over 5'10".

Simon?

foreign

Hey, Tracy, thank you for getting back to me. No problem.

Are you calling about the lessons?

The lessons in what?

Flute. Who referred you?

Uh, no.

No, no, no. I was just wondering about an old band.

Kyle Jensen.

And, um... Tracy, you still there?

I don't want to talk about this.

But you and Kyle, you guys were... Sorry, I can't do this now.

I'm starting a rehearsal at the high school.

Oh, oh, you're performing at the Harvest Festival. If you're looking for free

tickets, call the Historical Society.

What the fuck?

Who was that?

Tracy?

Didn't even say goodbye.

Well, did you lead with the bus crash?

No, I led with his name.

Didn't help, like, at all.

Okay, well, maybe you need to break the ice with a good memory.

Something that happened before the accident.

Right.

Hey, how's Simon holding up?

Not well.

Wally said he was grabbed by a giant creature down in the church scar.

Wait, wait, wait. Simon was what? What time does this thing start?

With the Harvest Festival?

Uh, noon?

You're not weirded out.

About crashing at my place, right? Because that toothbrush was brand new, I

swear. No, it was good to not be home by myself.

Thanks. Did you get any sleep or just toss and turn?

Just toss.

Yeah, I figured.

When you came down to our kitchen this morning, it looked like you were just

staring into an aquarium.

We don't have one.

Let's go. You need to talk to Kyle.

Why do I have more clothes than when I came here?

Maybe because that blue top and denim skirt are mine.

Maybe you should just chill. I'm doing this for Simon.

It's a bargaining chip.

But he's your stepfather.

Why do you need a bargain with him?

If he thinks I'm coming back home, he'll talk.

Then we can find a plan when exactly they're tearing down the school.

But he's going to be at the festival, so, like, why pack? There needs to be a

bag in your car so he knows I'm not bluffing.

You can't fool him.

Is your mom going to be there, too?

On a Sunday? Please.

She's probably getting a vampire facial.

Wow. We really do come from completely different planets, don't we?

I really love your hair, by the way.

Thanks.

Now it's time for a change.

Are my hands shaking, or am I just blinking really fast?

Claire, whatever happens today, I got your back, okay?

But you cannot keep my red socks, you klepto bitch. I love these.

What are you looking up?

Just trying to learn a few simple Finnish phrases, like, please don't

touch me, creature.

Hey, we haven't really spoken about, you know, the thing in the hall when I...

Yeah, we don't need to.

Well, I know that trying to kiss you might have seemed kind of impulsive.

Look, I get it. You were high as a kite. You thought your fingers were popsicle

sticks. That was yesterday, and today's today.

Damn, I do not have enough teeth to speak this language.

So you just keep a thumb drive of horror movies in your locker and you've seen

all of these?

A couple of them are Maddie's picks.

She downloaded them to torture me.

They all look like torture. What are we looking for?

What about a psycho who transfers his evil thoughts into his shrink's brain?

Can't remember the title. You know it?

No, no, I'm not really a horror fan.

Got enough scary stuff going on up in my head. Don't need to seek it out for a

rockin' good time.

We don't need that.

I heard you the first time. If we're gathering information, you don't want to

alienate him.

Sorry, what's in the boxes?

Supplies. Rope.

Flashlight. A hatchet is not a supply, Wally. It's a weapon. Why do we need a

hatchet? You gotta stay prepared.

It's not an ideal way to get answers.

Aggression begets aggression.

Are you seriously waving the yellow card right now? You?

Out of all people?

You've been down there. You were dragged into the water by the creepy little

hands. He's got a point, Wally. I mean, what's the worst that's gonna happen to

us if we're already dead? We don't know, Yuri. We don't know.

White Eyes could just be the tip of the iceberg, okay? There could be 20 more of

him and bigger. We have no idea how that scar works, okay? What if we go in the

hole and he closes up and we're trapped down there forever?

Wow, if this is your idea of a pep talk, you're losing your team, Coach.

We're going into the volcano. We need to bring our A-game.

Why do we need a cheese grater? We also brought snacks.

All right.

Are we doing this thing or not?

Yuri, last night.

Thank you.

The sender. Found it. The sender. Oh, great.

I'll warn you before he chokes and the rats crawl out of his mouth.

Wait, that's a joke, right?

Want to grab some breakfast?

I know how much you love hospital food.

Tempting, but I'll pass.

I'll put you down for one green jello.

Maddie? How are you?

Dr. Chan, I did your psych evaluation before you were released last week.

Right. I was hoping for a follow-up appointment.

Is that why you're here?

No, no.

I'm doing really well.

How are you managing your stress?

I'm not.

I mean, I'm just getting back into my old routine.

Does your routine include intrusive thoughts?

I have a client who finds it helpful to...

Keep a rubber band around her wrist.

When she finds herself panicking, she snaps it.

It startles her into seeing what's in front of her rather than what's in her

head. Sounds easy enough if you're dealing with that kind of thing.

Take care, Maddie.

I'll be in touch about that follow-up appointment.

What do you mean she didn't want to talk about me?

Was her husband there?

Does she have a husband?

Who is this piece of shit? Whoa, whoa, whoa, Kyle, slow down. I barely got past

hello. Tracy heard your name and kind of shut me down. Right.

So I have no answers and I never will.

Look, I'm not giving up. I just, I might need a better way in. Maybe something a

little more warm and fuzzy than a bus crash.

Think, dude.

Did you ever...

Cheat on a test together?

Make her a mixtape?

I asked her to go to senior prom with me.

Right before we got on the bus.

That's promising?

She looked kind of stunned.

Less promising.

We've been friends for so long.

I think I might have changed lanes too fast.

She said she'd let me know the next day, but... I didn't have a next day.

What do you do now?

No guarantee, but let me take another shot at this.

Cool?

Yeah.

If you don't come back, I think I know the answer.

I'm coming back.

We need to talk.

That's everything I saw.

It's what he showed me.

You can't save me. You can't save me.

You can't save me.

You can't save me.

You can't save me!

What's going on?

Nothing.

Kyle and I came up with a plan.

Looks like I'm headed back to the Harvest Festival, too.

Your dad stopped me as I was leaving.

Made me promise to tell you this.

He's been digging for answers to help us with Simon.

And, um... And why?

It turns out there used to be a foundry here.

Where we're standing, a long time ago.

It collapsed.

The place was already filled with ghosts, but when the building was gone,

they lost their ability to cross over.

They're trapped.

Forever.

They call them the forgotten.

Must be what happens to the ghosts when the place where they were living goes

away.

Look, if you want me to be there when you share this with Simon... No, we're

not. Not yet.

He's already acting really strangely.

Maddie, we... I don't want to dump any more bad news on him or anyone else

without giving them a kernel of hope.

I need to find what pulled him in there and get him out.

Okay?

Okay.

Somebody at this fair better know more about that church.

No. Please don't just drive.

Black.

Red.

Zero out of ten.

You know the odds against that?

About a thousand to one.

The same as getting ten out of ten.

People read your mind.

They think your thoughts.

They see your dreams.

They feel your pain.

You may not want to admit it, but they do.

I'm not trying to hurt you.

Wait, she's supposed to be a therapist?

I mean, they don't get paid enough to afford that blazer? I can't.

I can't do this.

I'm sorry, my bad. I won't talk anymore.

Well, but to be fair, you should have told me about the rats.

Why would he be holding those rosary beads in his memory?

Um, who are we talking about?

White Eyes.

Oh, uh, well, he was in a church.

I mean,

he found a hymnal, right? There's probably candles lying around there,

too. It's a Lutheran church.

They have no rosary beads.

Those were mine. They came with me after I was adopted.

Um, wait, what?

They belonged to my birth mother. She died after I was born.

The hospital kept them. My parents wanted me to have them.

It's not a coincidence.

Simon... He has my memories.

Why does he need them?

Why did he suck me in here?

What does he want from me?

I gotta clear my ass.

Does White Eyes sleep under those benches?

What makes you think he sleeps?

Was this whole thing underwater?

Maybe. And it looks like it capsized. Let's stick together.

If he grabs one of us, the rest of us pounce.

Again, we're here for insight.

Why don't we not battle?

You say tomato, I say tomato.

Is that where you got pulled underwater?

Yeah.

Keep your distance.

Where's that, um, cheese script?

Sorry. Just the rope.

What is that?

Sermon? I don't think so.

There's lots of numbers on it, but it's pretty faded.

I'm guessing this is Finnish.

What was that?

It was just me.

Who do you think drew those? The kids that drowned or White Eyes?

What did he draw it with?

Looks like mud.

Or dried blood.

Are they singing or screaming?

Behind every great town are great leaders whose sole purpose is to make

life better for future generations.

But how do you make it better, sir?

I had a vision, Cindy.

I knew that if I split the river, both sides would prosper. Are we supposed to

be taking notes?

Hey, I'm just here to delay paying.

Claire.

If your stepfather knows anything more about the school getting bulldozed, you

need to ask him.

Now. I'm going, I'm going.

Indeed, Split River's first great statesman was Alfred

Van Hite.

Oh, that's him.

Van Hite.

That's the guy that died with the kids.

And today we honor Alfred Van Hite, who had the vision to make our town blossom

and thrive.

So mighty, Cindy.

Why is Simon's mom calling me?

They want to speak with him.

That voicemail you left yesterday wasn't enough. They want to FaceTime with him

today. Oh, shit.

What are we going to do?

We're going to celebrate this new...

That was more running than I've done since I died.

Is your head any clearer? Please say yes.

I still have a lot of questions.

Me too.

Maddie said a lot about you, but she left out a few things, like how fast you

are.

I left out some stuff too.

What do you mean?

I lied to Maddie.

I told her when my sister found me, I emailed her back.

I didn't. I didn't even respond.

Why not?

Why would I?

Sabrina was about four when our mother died, and she probably resents me.

My coming into the world took our mother out.

I mean, I'd resent me.

Why would she reach out to you if she resented you?

Something that makes no sense.

Look, you know, I have a brother.

Had. It's been 30 years since I've seen him.

I've had more one-sided conversations than I can count.

But if I had a chance to go back and reconnect with him, I wouldn't talk

myself out of it.

I'd do anything to make that happen.

You need to get back to your life so you can call your sister.

The only way I'm getting back to my life is finding out why I'm here.

I should never lie to her.

Uh, give me a minute, would you?

Please take your time. I'll just be here.

Murdering an iron lung from Amazon.

Maybe you guys will trust me next time when I say that we need weapons.

What happened down there?

Just be grateful the little hands didn't grab you.

I think this is some kind of deal.

I mean, I think these words mean final offer.

Dude, how can you even read that? A magnifying glass would help.

Oh, I know where there's one.

Hey, I saw somebody down there.

Was he seven feet tall?

No, no, it was a child.

He didn't want me to say anything, though.

I mean, I guess that makes sense.

We already know eight kids drowned in that church. He was probably one of

them.

Thank you for grabbing my hand and pulling me out of there.

It was just instinct.

So was my wanting to kiss you.

Rhonda, I didn't do that because I was high.

I've been wanting to kiss you for a long time.

Is Simon in here?

What? No, no. He's supposed to be with you. He was.

And then he ran.

And then he saw Maddie, and then he ran again. And I tried to follow him. I did.

And within two minutes, I lost him somehow. I'm sorry.

You are literally the worst babysitter of all time. Why does he need to see

Maddie? He had to catch her up on some stuff.

He didn't tell us everything that happened in the mind melt. Wait, what?

What did he leave out? Yo, I'm sorry. I almost died again in St. Hellhole, and

you're telling me this guy's holding information from me? Where did you last

see him?

At the festival.

Wait, I'll come with you.

What about Mr. Martin? Should one of us go back down? Yeah, one of us probably

should go back down, but he insists on figuring this out himself, which is

insane, but he's not budging. Why don't you stay with Yuri and I'll decode

whatever else you can?

My baby.

How could anyone?

How could this happen?

My poor baby.

Wait, wait, wait.

Don't.

Did you do this?

Did you kill eight innocent children?

A toast to the man of the hour. And all it cost him was one family heirloom. Who

knows? There could still be time to get your precious bride back.

Better hurry.

Before the dam breaks.

Nicole? Maddie?

I didn't know you were going to be here together.

Oh, no, we're not.

I mean, we didn't come together.

We just ran into each other at the snow cone tent.

We don't have snow cones this year.

Really? Bummer. It's so hot.

Is there more than this about our town's history?

Oh, sweetheart.

Liv, could you run to my car and get the table easels?

Mm-hmm.

Nice to see you, Nicole.

Marty.

Bet you wish you were a freshman again.

Did you ever dream that your high school would have a puppet course and a wet

sauna?

Actually, I'm trying to find out more about Mr. Van Huyck.

He's not even mentioned in here. Was he a big man or tall?

How would I know?

Well, he was the lead in your puppet show, so I just thought maybe there was

more on his story. I'm not a historian, hon.

I'm just the charming narrator.

What will it take to make you not tear down the school?

Me? The whole community wants this.

You can't stop progress.

When?

When will they tear it down? You'll have plenty of time to clean out your locker.

Besides, I would think you'd be overjoyed to demolish the place that

points to lingering questions about your absence.

Well, if you'll excuse me, I have to treat my public.

Hi! I don't think Stepdad is welcoming her

home.

Oh, there's Maddie.

No, I know Simon.

No, you can't ask her where she can't see you.

Uh, but what if she goes to the greenhouse? There's somebody doing tarot

in there.

You sure you want to tell her you lost Simon?

Holy shit, yo, this new school has an ice rink.

And a frickin' smoothie bar. What?

We'll send another message. Another message is a non-starter, Nicole. They

want to see his face.

Why are you so edgy?

Because my dad just told me that if they tear down the school, the ghosts who are

here are here forever.

Forgotten. What?

Does Simon know?

No. And he can't know. I don't want to push him into doing anything reckless.

And it's not just Simon, okay? It's everyone.

How am I supposed to tell the people that I love that they're powerless?

Their only option is crossing over, and they can't even control that.

Okay, what about this one?

Shit. Who is it?

Simon's mom.

She's relentless.

Here, you gotta answer it. What am I gonna say? You answer it.

What am I gonna say?

Hello?

Oh, hi.

Hey.

Hey. Did you find out anything about the teardown? A timeline?

Nope. We couldn't get past how much I've disappointed my mother.

I backed a suitcase for nothing. Who is she talking to?

Simon's mom.

Yeah, Sabrina said that the service at the lake house is spotty. Yeah, they

want to FaceTime with him.

What else did I miss?

Not much. I mean, Maddie was low-key threatened by Livia's mom when she was

signing autographs. Why does everyone love this woman?

Not everyone.

She ditched her puppet show and called her a bahaulainen, whatever that means.

That means devil in Finnish.

Okay.

Yeah, I'm sure he'll be home very soon.

Bye-bye.

I need a shower.

Yeah, maybe it's time we get out of here.

Not yet.

Why are you down here?

I'm not sure.

More importantly, why are you?

I saw these when he was grabbing my face.

Which blood is that?

I don't know.

Look at this.

Is that finished?

What does it mean?

Do you know who I am?

Is that a threat?

These walls are speaking to us, Simon.

Whatever happened down here, it's connected to all of us. Not us. Not me.

I'm not dead.

But maybe you've been chosen for that very reason.

For what reason? Please, where is he?

Hey, buddy.

How you doing?

Still dead.

Yeah, me too.

What were you looking at?

People leaving.

Flowers and balloons.

Babies.

I was wondering if you wanted to join me on a mission.

Uh, I got a game going here. You've had the same game going for 20 years.

Haven't you won yet?

No, but I'm thinking about cheating this time.

Listen.

I know the waiting feels like the worst part, but it's not.

It's the giving up.

You shouldn't.

If someone had told me two weeks ago I'd be talking again with my daughter, I

would have pushed them out that window.

But I am.

You don't know what's coming tomorrow.

I kind of do.

More of today.

Don't cheat.

It'll be much more satisfying when you win.

What's the mission?

Hey.

Hey, I think we cracked this sucker. It looks like someone wanted to buy the

land under this church.

But it's not signed by anyone.

Maybe they didn't want to give it up.

What's wrong?

Did you find Simon?

We didn't, but...

He may not be the only one who needs saving.

When they level the school, we get level two.

I don't understand.

Our minimum security prison might become maximum, and White Ice could become our

new warden.

What are you saying? We'd be stuck down there?

Or in our own scars?

Does it matter?

Mr. Manfredo isn't exactly Mr. Cuddlebear.

Jesus.

Whoever thought I'd miss the sound of Mr. South's tile buffer?

How can you joke about this?

You just called your killer Mr.

Cuddlebear. Yeah, I was being ironic, you pinhead.

That's how I deal with being reminded that I am powerless.

We're not powerless.

Oh, really? Do you have some escape plan that we haven't tried yet?

All I mean is that we still have the power to save Simon.

No matter where we're living, we're not living.

Simon still is.

And we promised Maddie that we would get him back. So let's do that first, and

then we can figure us out.

Great. I love scheduling my depression.

Where's Mr. Martin's watch?

Uh, did he come up here and grab it?

No. We haven't seen him.

What about Simon?

Did he take the watch so he could go back to White Eyes?

Well, we have to go through all of our scars to get down there.

No.

We can do a shortcut.

Mine's right next to Mr. Martin's.

All right, that's a great idea. Let's go.

Yuri, you didn't have to offer that. It's my fault. I had the easiest job of

anyone in... Charlie, I can deal with people seeing my worst shit.

You did the best you could with Simon.

I mean, dude's a loose cannon.

I mean, anyone who'd want to ditch you isn't thinking clearly.

Go back to the festival.

Okay? Check every time.

I only do one reading at a time.

Would two of you like to wait outside?

No. We come together.

Like a unit.

Well, only one of your unit can touch the cards.

We're not here for a reading.

Why did you call her a devil, the woman narrating the puppet show?

I never said that. You called her a boholainen.

Tell me why you called her a devil.

I wasn't referring to her.

Then who?

Pick a card.

Did you find anything?

Just this.

What was this? Down there.

In the collection plate.

Maybe this is what he was talking about.

The wand is associated with fire, energy.

It can signify new beginnings.

What about terrible endings?

What? Look, if my grandma was alive, I'd ask her. But I can't.

Can you please tell us anything about Alfred Van Dyke?

We know there was a finished church here.

I'm not a history teacher.

Pick another card.

My history teacher says if we don't study the past...

We're destined to repeat it.

Because there's no reason to honor this man. There was nothing great

about him.

He thought of us as vermin, expendable, less than human.

Eight children died in that church because of Alfred Ben Haidt. He killed

them.

Didn't he die in that church too?

Yes.

I can't say why he was there, but...

Sometimes you have to believe in divine justice.

Alfred Van Hite was a twisted, empty, greedy man who only cared about money

and power.

We were a small community, but he wanted what little we had.

Our land, our homes, our church.

He knew that choir was in the basement that day.

He thought, if our children died, so would our spirit.

And we'd leave.

He deserved the job.

He deserved worse.

Oh, my God.

Simon might be in that scar right now with Van Hite.

What? Go.

On, tell us more.

There's not much more to tell.

This is our history in this town.

They'd like to erase it, but a few of us...

If you brought me here, I want to know why.

I need to go into the school. I need to see Simon. Are you going to tell him

what your dad said?

Yeah, he needs to know who he's dealing with. Hey, I don't think this Tracy

thing's happening today. Are you guys all good to leave now? Oh, so good.

Wait, where's my backpack?

What?

Didn't you have it when we... No, no, I must have taken it off somewhere.

We have to find it. Simon's iPad is in there. Okay.

We'll check the town history booth.

I'll check the lost and found. Okay, I'll head to the puppet tent before I go

inside. Meet me out front.

Hey, there.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

I mean, I'm not shocked this whole town is built on lies.

Come on.

If you threw him in front of that bus... You threw Wally into the library.

You could throw me back into my life. Simon, careful.

Lift the fucking veil and let me out of here.

Hey! Get your hands up! Wally, stop!

You have a story to tell? You can tell one of us. Guys! Get away from him! That

is Van Hite! He's the one who drowned all the kids intentionally!

You okay?

Can I get you some water or something?

No, I'm fine.

He found it.

Oh, yeah.

Somebody must have picked it up and left it in the petting zoo.

Not gonna lie, it smells a little like wet sheep.

Can we sit for a second?

I've really got to get inside the school.

I know. Nicole told me. But you can't get to where Simon is, Maddie.

Look, uh... I know a lot's gone down in the last couple of weeks.

But there was a time when you could trust me.

I trust you.

No.

No, but I fucked up big time and I lost that.

But I kind of thought we were getting back to solid ground.

Xavier, this isn't about you.

I don't know how to tell people who need me that I can't help them.

They might be trapped in some version of hell for eternity, and I'm supposed to

what?

Live my life?

Pretend I don't know that?

No, I just keep seeing things that terrify me, and I can't run away from

them. Look, I know this isn't the same, but I, uh, I mean, we all have

weird, messed up fears.

Before I was a patient, Even driving by the hospital just made my skin crawl. I

mean, the place terrified me.

But then you were there.

And I realized maybe I could help you.

Maybe I could help the people that are stuck in there.

Now I'm working there.

Bottom line, I never know what's going to be there when I turn a corner.

Bags of blood, dead people in morgues, dead people playing checkers.

But I surprise myself every day because I go back there I Guess what I'm saying

is This place that scared me is also a place that heals people

Maybe your brains making you see this scary shit because ultimately

it wants to help you I Hate that you know me so well

Sometimes Sometimes I wonder what it would have been like

if we could have been who we are now back when we were together

I Have to go inside

Where is Simon?

Is he still down there?

Um, no, he, uh... He what?

What? Is he okay?

Is he hurt?

I, uh... Quinn, what happened? Where's Simon?

He's in the library.

He's a little bruised, but he's gonna be fine.

Wally's watching over him like Mother Goose.

Uh, Wanda, there's a lot I have to tell you.

My dad... Yeah, we heard.

I'm not going to let that happen.

We know that, Maddie.

We know.

It's one thing at a time, okay?

Just go see Simon.

I can't believe this is all

because of me.

All she asked us to do was to keep Simon safe, and I broke him. You didn't break

him. You were trying to keep him safe.

I think what you did was brave.

If I was brave, I would have smashed the right person.

I was talking about the kiss.

I know I talk a big game, but the truth is

I haven't kissed anyone in 62 years.

After what happened to me in this school, I

haven't let anyone get that close to me.

And I wasn't sure I ever could again.

That's okay.

I can wait.

Another 62 years.

Oh, hell no.

Hold on. That's Tracy.

Hey,

Tracy. Xavier. We spoke earlier.

You're the one who doesn't want lessons.

Right. But I might.

Who knows?

What is it you want to ask me about, Kyle?

So, weirdly enough, I am the captain of the senior prom committee.

And we wanted to honor the students who didn't... What?

Have a good time?

That would be me.

Oh, so you went with somebody else?

No, I went with Kyle, and it was horrible.

Made me sorry I said yes.

Are we talking about the same Kyle Jensen?

He wasn't the same.

Not after the bus accident.

He turned into some swaggering asshole who made me pay for parking.

It's hard for me to even go there because he was once so sweet.

Kind, funny.

Now I cross the street if I see him coming my way.

Are you telling me that Kyle survived the bus crash?

Yes.

Do me a favor.

Lose our prom picture.

I did.

Does this mean Kyle's still alive?

Not the Kyle in the hospital.

Then who's in Kyle's body?
