Aah! [Chuckles]
Mommy, Daddy?
[Coughing]
My throat hurts.
Run! Run!
[Male Announcer] Pedia Ease cough suppressant.
- Gentle, fast, effect... - Cole.
I don't care what they say, this thing is broken.
Take 'em off.
I don't want them on my table.
I saw what was in your bureau drawer when I was cleaning.
Got something you want to confess?
Hmm? The bumblebee pendant?
Why do you keep taking it?
It was Grandma's.
You know, what if it broke? You know how sad I'd be.
You'd cry 'cause you miss Grandma so much.
That's right.
Sometimes people think they lose things,
and they really didn't lose them... it just gets moved.
So, did you move the bumblebee pendant?
Don't get mad.
So, who moved it this time?
Maybe someone came in our house, took the bumblebee pendant out of my closet...
and placed it nicely in your drawer.
- Maybe. - [Sighs] God, I am so tired, Cole.
I'm tired in my body, I'm tired in my mind,
I'm... tired in my heart.
I need some help.
You know, I don't know if you noticed, but our little family isn't doing so good.
I mean, I've been praying,
but I must not be praying right.
Looks like we're just gonna have to answer each other's prayers.
If we can't talk to each other, we're not gonna make it.
Now, tell me, baby. I-I-I won't get mad, honey.
Did you take the bumblebee pendant?
- No. - [Silverware Clattering]
You've had enough roast beef. You need to leave the table.
Go!
[Dog Whimpering]
[Gasps]
Hey, come on. I'll show you where my dad keeps his gun. Come on.
[Whimpering]
[Sobbing] Sebastian, come on!
- Mama? - [Dog Whimpering]
[Sobbing]
If you're not very mad,
can I sleep in your bed tonight?
Look at my face.
I'm not very mad.
- [Sobbing] - Baby, why are you shaking?
Cole, what's wrong?
Oh, God, please tell me!
Oh, please.
[Sobbing] Oh.
It's Edwardian, beautifully worked...
with mine-cut diamonds and an actual color Burmese sapphire.
It's timeless.
- Oh. - [Door Closes, Bells Jingling]
You, uh... [Clears Throat]
Got anything a little plainer?
Plainer? You want a plain ring to go with your plain fianc�? Is that how it is?
No! Baby, don't get in a tissy.
Uh... You're so beautiful.
You're like a Burmese sapphire all by yourself.
- You don't need all that. - Uh-huh.
Why don't you try it on...
and see how you both feel about it.
There. How does that feel?
I think this piece, um, communicates a longing.
I imagine that the woman who owned it...
loved a man that she couldn't be with.
Did he have wavy hair and chestnut eyes?
- Huh? - Um, I don't know, but...
a lot of the pieces in this store communicate,
and I think you should choose a piece that speaks to you.
I think maybe when people own things and then they pass away,
a part of themselves gets printed on those things,
like... like fingerprints.
I'll just wrap it up.
You don't need a guy with a Master's.
You need a wrestler with a neck larger than his head.
[Chuckles] No, I need a wrestler with a Master's.
- What's this? - Happy birthday.
- For me? - Mm-hmm.
It's a... first edition.
- Wow. - [Chuckles]
- You know, this is too much. - No.
Took it out of your Christmas bonus.
[Chuckles] It's perfect, Anna.
- Thanks. - [Chuckles]
[Cole] What do you want more than anything?
[Malcolm] I don't know.
- [Cole] I've told you what I want. - [Glass Breaking]
[Malcolm] I know what I want.
I want to be able to talk to my wife again.
The way we used to talk to each other.
Like there was no one else in the world except us.
[Cole] How are you gonna do that?
Can't be your doctor anymore.
I haven't paid enough attention to my family.
Bad things happen when you do that.
Do you understand?
- I'm going to transfer you. I know two psychologists. - Don't fail me.
Don't give up. You're the only one who can help me, I know it.
- I can't help you. - [Sobbing]
You...
Someone else can help you.
You believe me, right?
Dr. Crowe, you believe my secret, right?
I don't know how to answer that, Cole.
How can you help me...
if you don't believe me?
Some magic's real.
[Vincent] Do you know why you're afraid when you're alone?
I do. I do.
[Door Opening, Closing]
[Malcolm's Voice] I'm sorry, Vincent. I hope I didn't leave you alone too long.
Whew. It's cold in here.
[Vincent Sobbing Quietly]
Vincent, why are you crying?
[Vincent Sniffles] You won't believe.
[Malcolm] Sorry, Vincent. I hope I didn't leave you alone too long.
Whew. It's cold in here.
- Vincent... - [Tape Machine Rewinding]
Whew. It's cold in here.
- [Tape Machine Clicks] - Nah, you know what? I never liked him either.
When I was a kid, I had this blood test done,
- and I threw up chili cheese fries all over this male nurse. - [Vincent Laughing]
[Woman] Excuse me. Dr. Reed is on line two.
[Malcolm] Vincent, will you excuse me? I have to take this.
- Just give me a minute, okay? - [Vincent] Okay.
[Door Opens, Closes]
[Volume Increases]
[Faint Voice, Indistinct]
[Tape Noise]
[Faint Voice Continues]
[Man Speaking In Spanish]
[Man Sobbing] No entiendes.
Yo no quiero morir.
[Continues Speaking In Spanish]
Yo no quiero morir.
- Oh, my God. - Yo no quiero morir!
You been running around?
Make you feel better?
I like to run around. It's good exercise.
Do you want to ask me questions now?
Want to be a lance corporal in Company "M," Third Battalion, Seventh Marines?
We're being dispatched into the Quang Nam province.
Maybe later.
Something happened, didn't it?
You wigging out?
Yes. I think I am.
Do you know what "Yo no quiero morir" means?
It's Spanish. It means "I don't want to die."
What do you think these ghosts want when they talk to you?
I want you to think about it, Cole.
I want you to think about it really carefully.
What do you think they want?
- Just help. - That's right. That's what I think too.
They just want help, even the scary ones.
I think I might know a way to make them go away.
How?
Listen to them.
What if they don't want help?
What if they're just angry and they just want to hurt somebody?
I don't think that's the way it works.
How do you know for sure?
I don't.
[Door Opens, Closes]
- [Engine Starts] - Hey!
- [Tires Squealing] - Hey! Hey!
[Lynn Sobbing] What's happening?
[Whispering] What's happening?
Go! [Sobbing]
[Quietly Sobbing]
[Breathing Heavily]
What's happening to you?
Is someone hurting you? I'll kick their ass.
Cole, if they're hurting you... [Sobbing]
[Moans]
Mama, you sleep now.
[Exhales Deeply]
[Panting]
[Snapping]
[Whimpering]
[Sobbing]
[Swallowing]
[Gagging, Panting]
[Sobbing]
I'm feeling much better now.
[Quivering] Do you want to tell me something?
[Hydraulic Brakes Hissing]
[Gasps]
She came a long way to visit me, didn't she?
I guess she did.
[Sobbing]
Can you get some water?
That's her sister.
You know, when I went through this with my father's cancer...
I just can't imagine a child being in bed for two years.
[Woman] How many... How many doctors?
- I think it was six. - Six different doctors?
I think so, yes.
I just heard the, uh, little one is falling ill now.
God help them.
Don't go home, okay?
I definitely won't.
Aah! [Panting]
Mister?
Excuse me, mister.
Are you Kyra's daddy?
It's for you.
Sh-She wanted to tell you something.
[Static]
[Kyra's Voice] Oh, no, here he comes. He's coming my way. Psst!
Would you like to dance?
Well, actually, I just came with my friends.
Oh, well, how about this?
We can dance for a little bit, and if you don't like the way I dance,
you can kick me.
Oh, okay then.
[Liquid Pouring]
[Woman] It's time for lunch, Kyra.
- [Kyra] I'm feeling much better now. - That's so great, honey.
[Kisses] It's time for your food.
Can I go outside if I eat this?
I don't know. You know how you get sick in the afternoons.
We'll see.
Don't say that it tastes funny. You know I don't like to hear that.
Tami's mom called.
You were keeping her sick.
You liked it, she said.
She looked out for you.
Is Kyra coming back?
[Cole] Not anymore.
[Woman] I think that's enough. That's enough makeup.
[Cole] Okay.
- They're calling for the stable boy. - We have to hurry!
Who, uh... Who were you talking to?
Just practicing my lines.
Thanks for giving me this part, Mr. Cunningham.
You know, when I went to school here, there was a terrible fire in this section of the theater.
They rebuilt the whole thing.
Yeah, I know.
[Audience Sighing]
Only he who is pure of heart can take the sword from the stone.
Let the boy try.
[Scattered Applause]
He is a stable boy. He cleans up after the horses.
- Silence, village idiot. - [Scattered Giggling]
Let the boy step forward.
[Children Gasping]
[Children Together] Hail, King Arthur!
[Applause]
[Children] Yea!
- [Cheering] - [Applause Continues]
[Audience Laughing]
[All Laughing]
[Chattering]
[Malcolm] I thought you were really great in the play, Cole.
- Really? - Yeah.
- You know what else? - What?
I thought Tommy Tammisimo sucked big time. [Chuckles]
[Chuckles]
I got an idea how you can talk to your wife.
Wait till she's asleep.
Then she'll listen to you and she won't even know it.
I'm not gonna see you anymore, am I?
I think we said everything we needed to say.
Maybe it's time to say things to someone closer to you.
Maybe we can pretend like we're gonna see each other tomorrow.
Just for pretend.
Okay.
I'm gonna go now.
I'll see you tomorrow, Cole.
- [Siren Blaring] - [Chattering, Indistinct]
I'm okay, Officer. I-I'm okay.
I don't know what happened.
[Lynn] Hmm.
Geez, I hope nobody got hurt.
You're very quiet.
You're mad I missed the play, aren't you?
I have two jobs, baby.
You know how important they are for us.
[Sighs]
I'd give anything to have been there.
I'm ready to communicate with you now.
Communicate?
Tell you my secrets.
What is it?
You know the accident up there?
Yeah.
Someone got hurt.
They did?
A lady.
She died.
Oh, my God. What, you can see her?
- Yes. - Where is she?
Standing next to my window.
Cole, you're scaring me.
They scare me too sometimes.
They?
Ghosts.
You see ghosts, Cole?
They want me to do things for them.
They... They talk to you?
They tell you to do things?
They're the ones that used to hurt me.
What are you thinking, Mama?
- You think I'm a freak? - Look at my face.
I would never think that about you. Ever.
- Got it? - Got it.
Just let me think for a minute.
Grandma says hi.
She says she's sorry for taking the bumblebee pendant.
She just likes it a lot.
- What? - Grandma comes to visit me sometimes.
Cole, that's very wrong.
- Grandma's gone, you know that. - I know.
- She wanted me to tell you... - Cole, please stop.
She wanted me to tell you she saw you dance.
She said when you were little,
you and her had a fight...
right before your dance recital.
- [Sniffles] - You thought she didn't come to see you dance.
She did.
She hid in the back so you wouldn't see.
Sh-She said you were like an angel.
- [Sobbing] - She said...
you came to the place where they buried her,
asked her a question.
She said the answer is...
every day.
What did you ask?
[Sniffles]
[Voice Breaking]
Do...
Do I make her proud?
[Sobbing] Mama.
[Sobbing]
[Laughing, Chattering]
[Man] Hi, everybody. As most of you know,
I'm not used to doing this,
and I promised Anna that I'd try not to embarrass her.
I'll leave that to her mother. [Chuckles]
But we do want to thank all of you for coming...
and for sharing this wonderful day with us.
It's bittersweet almost, for me,
'cause I hate giving her up.
[Malcolm] Anna?
[Applause On Television]
I miss you.
I miss you too.
Why, Malcolm?
What?
- What is it? - Why did you leave me?
I didn't leave you.
[Object Clatters]
[Cole] I see people.
They don't know they're dead.
- [Malcolm] How often do you see them? - [Cole] All the time.
[Cole] They're everywhere.
They only see what they want to see.
[Malcolm On TV] Okay, Mikey.
Come on. Give me a minute.
[Doorknob Turning]
[Panting]
[Exhales Deeply]
[Shivering]
[Gunshot]
[Anna Screams]
[Whimpering]
- Oh, God. - [Groaning]
- [Mumbling] It doesn't even hurt. - Let me see.
- Let me see. Put your hand... - [Groaning]
Oh, God.
- [Breathing Heavily] - Okay.
[Grunts]
[Sobbing]
I think I'm okay. Really, I think it just went...
went in and out.
It doesn't even hurt anymore.
I think I can go now.
I just needed to do a couple things.
I needed to help someone.
I think I did.
And I needed to tell you something.
You were never second.
Ever.
I love you.
You sleep now.
Everything will be different in the morning.
Good night, Malcolm.
Good night, sweetheart.
