Spirited (2010) s02e01 Episode Script
Changes
1 Like a snake calling on a phone I've got no time to be alone Someone coming at me all the time Babe, I think I'll lose my mind 'Cause I'm stranded On my own Stranded far from home Alright Stranded.
Something's happening here.
We don't know what it is.
I opened a door I wasn't supposed to.
I didn't find answers.
Only more questions.
I needed to be here, no question in my mind.
They asked if they could come.
And I said ".
.
Suzy won't mind.
"She's cool.
" What does this mean now? I opened a door because it was there.
She makes my heart beat like nothing ever did when I was alive.
Some things are meant to be no matter what the risk.
Don't go.
Henry? Sure.
I, uh Oh! Pete! Uh ls Verity awake? Yeah.
She she's having breakfast.
Suzy, I'm still getting used to being seen.
Apologies.
Must have seen lots of things you weren't supposed to then.
Yeah.
But I I do try to be respectful.
It's It's just hard when no-one can see you being good.
Isn't Henry wonderful? I really have to get ready for work.
Yes.
Of course.
Yes, Steve? Yep.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
I can leave it on all day? Yeah.
OK.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
OK.
sure Uh, yeah.
OK.
Sure.
Sure.
So, is she your first? Yeah.
What? You've been seen before? Oh, yeah.
Probably about five times.
Oh, get out! Oh, no, maybe even six.
I'm not Oh! Hello.
Good morning.
Lovely blouse.
Yummy? Cold milk.
Oh! Why are you weird? Sorry? Um, eating your breakfast like you're weird.
Oh! No, I'm not weird.
I'm just thinking, thinking.
Can we get a dog? No.
Do you have a crush on someone? What? No, Verity.
Why would you say something like that? Don't be silly.
Well, when Brianna Jones had a crush on Jeremy, she acted all kind of special, like someone was watching her on TV or something.
Well, maybe I do have a crush on you.
Come on.
That was sweet.
Yeah, very sweet.
This is weird, knowing she can see us.
Having to be polite, Lord.
Like, "Cold milk.
Ooh!" Shut up! Mum, beep-beep.
Beep-beep Hiya.
Hello.
What happens now? Oh, OK.
Um well, when you drive away, we all drop and, um fall really and, uh Come on.
Get in.
You'll see.
If you're the last one to drop, there's this sort of up-draft effect, like you're flying.
Floating, really, but, uh It's quite a buzz, actually.
OK.
I better go.
OK.
Yeah.
OK.
See you later then.
OK.
Good.
Have fun with the flying thing.
Yeah.
Thanks.
Floating, but, um See.
You're smiling to yourself.
Just like you've got a secret.
Maybe I do have a secret.
What is it? Oh, no can't tell you.
It wouldn't be a secret.
Dig it in.
Dig it in.
Linda? Since it's your last day, I think we'll go for the lower eagle beak forceps.
Thanks.
- The eagle.
- My favourite.
Doctor? OK, Adam? You might feel a bit of pressure and some tugging.
If anything hurts, just raise your hand, alright? Just get it out.
I'm dying.
Yeah.
Get it out, come on! Linda? Suction! Suction.
Yes, Doctor.
Oh! Got it! Look at that.
Hey, ninnies, you're missing all the action - hilarious.
A couple of honeymooners are moving into number 4.
And they're not wasting any time, if you know what I mean.
Let's go.
How's your friend, Adam, in London? Uh-huh.
OK.
Well, no eating for two hours.
And Linda will give you some painkillers to take home, OK? Thank you.
This way.
And she'll talk you through the post-op instructions.
You alright? Ha! When does the new one start? Tomorrow.
Oh.
What's she like? Um, she's, uh, very efficient.
Right.
Have you seen Henry around? He's very lucky.
Really? Yeah.
Most of us never get to a place where a living person can see us.
Oh.
Have you met anyone like me? No.
Well There are some who don't like it, who are frightened or go a bit Well, what happens to them? Mr Jones is here.
Don't get a reputation for talking to yourself.
It's the beginning of the end.
Uh, send him in, please, Linda.
Thanks.
That's OK.
How did you find her? I don't know.
Why can she see us? I don't know.
How did we get here? You died, son.
Somewhere, some time, you died.
And now you get to be this.
We may have died but we're not dead.
Dead is so final.
I mean, it's not really Stop.
Stop.
Paperback? You right? Yes, Henry.
You'll find her here most afternoons.
Oh, my.
It's Henry James.
Is it? You chaps like to have a bit of a read then? Brilliant.
Enjoy that.
You and the dentist, what's the story? I'm dead.
She's alive, et cetera, et cetera.
You seem pretty close.
Yeah, well, until you deadheads showed up, she was the only person that could see me.
Without her, I was nothing.
I've been there.
Did 10 years once.
No-one with the gift to see.
None of us around.
This is the first time that I thought we all just lived alone.
Jesus.
How long have you been dead? I died in1917.
You poor bastard.
Thank you.
I'm just pleased that bit's over, really.
Course you are.
Course you are.
Who's next, Linda? There's no more patients today.
We're dusted and done.
Yeah.
Sure.
Great.
So unless you need anything else? No.
No, no.
Magazines look very nice and straight.
Suzy, have you been able to contact my daughter yet? You must be very excited - big overseas trip.
She can't talk, you silly duffer.
I am.
I'm really excited.
But, yeah, a bit nervous.
Mm.
Well, um I'll send you a postcard.
Oh! I bought you a little gift.
A going-away present.
Bon voyage.
Oh, thank you.
Oh! Hey, what's this? It's a travel iron.
It comes with an international plug.
And it takes up no room in your luggage.
Wow! Yeah.
It saved my bacon on a number of conferences.
Bet you none of the other backpackers in China will have one.
You're gonna be popular.
Thank Oh, Linda.
Oh, Linda? Henry told me that you called his mother for him.
He heard her voice.
That's all I want.
It's such a little thing.
Oh, Linda.
There will always be a job here for you.
If there's a vacancy, of course.
Thank you.
Bye.
Bye, Linda.
Oh, golly.
I'm gonna miss her.
You'd do it for Linda if she was dead.
God, you're stupid.
What? Why is Henry so special? Why does Henry get all the special attention? They're very close friends.
He knows a lot about her.
He told me she was the last person he saw before he drowned.
Don't you see what's going on? What are you talking about? You people are so blind.
Henry and Suzy are in love.
Has someone been keeping a secret from us? Please, this is a bathroom.
We're both girls.
You and Henry, hey? What's the story there? Um I don't know what you're talking about.
What's the scoop? Tang! Oh, come on, Suzy, we're all family, all in this together.
Uh I'm not We're going to become the best of friends over the next 50 years or so.
And then you can join us for eternity.
No secrets, Suzy.
Please get out of the bathroom.
Oh! You'll lose that touchy edge very soon, honey.
Out! Now.
Stay here.
I'm gonna go outside for a moment and I want to be alone.
OK.
Verity.
Huh? Turn the TV off and do your homework.
Oh.
Do you mind if we keep watching? Yeah, can't we? Off! Off! Off! Five minutes maybe? Henry, I'm trying to get used to this.
But, seriously, they are in my surgery all the time.
They're in my bedroom.
I just had a very emotional farewell with Linda, with them all watching me.
I can't even do a whiz without them wanting to come in and have a chat.
They are invasive bastards.
What are we gonna do? Did you just say 'whiz? Yes.
They were in the bathroom with me.
Is that funny? Henry perhaps you could ask them to leave? They've had their fun.
I just want them to leave now.
Just please leave now.
Yeah, um Look, they seem to think of this as home.
And, apparently, you are rather special.
Really? Yeah.
You are a, uh mythical creature, to be revered and treasured.
Wow! Yeah.
This is an historic moment and we're right in the middle of it.
Front row seat.
Oh, Dad! What? You got no undies on.
New rule, son.
Now that we are officially living together, and this is a house of no women, when at home, relaxing we free-ball.
Gross.
Nuh.
It feels good.
It feels right.
That toast looks tasty.
That's my breakfast.
Can I have a bite? No Aha! See? That's what I'm talking about.
So what are you doing today? I go to school, Monday to Friday, most weeks.
That's why I'm dressed like this.
I suppose you wouldn't choose to dress like that, would you? Hey? Huh? I'll get it.
Um so, um when are you off to school? About five minutes.
Great.
Hello.
Won't you come in? This way.
Rightio, son.
Go on.
Go, go.
Henry? Be careful.
Of what? Most of us have spent years, decades, completely alone.
No Suzy, no guide book, no other spirits, no Jesus, no Buddha, nothing.
This feels special.
Don't just ruin it because it's slightly inconvenient.
Pete, this is my house, my rules.
That's all.
End of story.
Alright.
Listen up, chaps.
Uh Look, it's been brilliant having you all here.
And, uh, it was very nice to meet you all.
But it's time to move on.
Yeah? Come on.
I mean, why not move on, really? Talk to me, dead people.
Really, you know, what's here for you? We like it here.
It's roomy and the views are nice.
And there's a living person who can see us.
Why would we go, even if we could? This is where we're supposed to be, Henry.
There's nowhere else for us to go.
OK.
Um Look this place is huge, right? What I need you to do is just keep away from Suzy.
Or what? You guys don't get it.
If we don't leave Suzy alone to live a normal life, it won't take long for her to lose her job.
And then she'll lose her children.
She'll be labelled a lunatic and medicated with drugs so strong, she won't be able to see anything at all, not even us.
She'll be taken away and we'll never see her again.
Ever.
Talk to me.
OK.
Can you read lips? Yes I can.
Great.
I'm going to show you a tape.
I want you to tell me what the person is saying.
Pause.
OK.
What's she saying? How much? Huh? How much are you paying? What what? I don't work for free.
Oh, right.
Um well, how much do you charge? Is it one-off or an ongoing stalk? Stalk? This is my wife, OK? I thought she was seeing someone.
I just wanted to know who the guy was, OK? Only fair.
Sure.
But there is no guy.
No-one has seen him.
Dwayne, I'm worried about her mental health.
Can you help me help her? 1,000 bucks a week.
You Hey, hey, hey, hey.
OK.
Sorry.
That's a lot of money.
Read my lips.
1,000 bucks a week.
Cash.
How good are you? You have no idea.
You understand what she was saying? Every word.
Hi.
Hi.
Welcome.
This is great.
Well, it's not as posh as your place.
But I never married a rich man, so Oh don't touch anything there.
That's Zac's study.
Has he started working on the biography yet? Yeah.
Oh Oh! I can have sleepovers here.
And if ever I forget something, I can just go upstairs and get it.
Well, yeah, we can work up to that.
Yay! Come and see the bedroom.
OK.
Well, I haven't finished unpacking yet.
I haven't made it look nice.
Oh, no, no, it's lovely.
Cosy.
This is terrible.
We shouldn't be here.
Apologies, Suzy.
Crap.
They have sex all the time and we like to watch.
It's so private.
And it's so quiet.
When we lie here, it's like the rest of the world doesn't exist.
Lovely.
Let me see the kitchen.
Sure.
Don't worry, Mum, you'll have a boyfriend one day.
You're so pretty.
Yes, Mum, a boyfriend, someone who can give you what you need.
Rock star can't give you that, can he? Thank you.
You're so sweet.
What's she saying? "Henry.
Henry, I can't stand this any longer.
" Unintelligible, unintelligible "Possibly "Why can't you not be?" Hey, hey, hey, hey.
You said you could read every word.
Stan It's Steve.
Whatever.
When her face isn't on the screen, I can't read her lips.
Plus, we are at a distance, which makes it very difficult.
Alright.
Just keep going.
"I want you.
I want Steve now.
"Steve now, or I'll lose my" Unintelligible, unintelligible "Really.
" Steve now.
Steve is here now.
She's pretty.
You think? Yeah.
I'd stalk her too.
No-one's here.
We've come to an arrangement.
They can have the run of the rest of the apartments.
But our house is now off limits.
Oh, great! Where's Verity? School.
Just us? Yeah.
In our house.
OK.
Our house.
Yeah.
Goose bumps.
Shh.
Listen.
I can hear your heart beat.
Oh, for fuck's sake.
I know there are some new rules and that you're possibly having a lovey-dovey moment together, however that works.
But someone very important is here to see you.
Who is it? The King.
The King? Elvis.
Excuse me? Henry Mallet we hear you've caught yourself a live one.
Hello.
I'm Suzy.
Yes, we know who you are.
And who might you be? I am the King.
Oh, right.
The King of fucking what? Oh, sorry.
Forgive me, Your Majesty.
What are you doing here? I go wherever I like.
But to use a modern phrase that I quite like, this is where the action is for now.
Pretty cool, hey? Where did they come from? We don't know.
He was floating.
Floating.
Yep.
I better get Verity.
I can't stop thinking about him, Magda.
Your spirit guy, right.
Mm.
Oh, don't go.
Steve, book club never goes past midnight.
Hamish will worry.
Five minutes.
I died for 92 seconds, and I saw that guy.
I mean, there must be a reason for this - a a purpose.
Why have I been given this gift? Yes.
"Yes"? Are you even listening properly? Sorry.
Do you remember what he looked like? So clearly.
I have a photographic memory, which used to drive the smart kids crazy at school.
I could get Hamish to do an identikit picture of him.
What? Well, my husband's a cop, right? And he has a small penis.
So what? Look, I told you, I don't like you talking about him when we have no clothes on.
Steve, it's his job.
He makes identikit pictures of criminals from people's memories.
You could have a picture of him.
It might help you solve your spiritual riddle.
Unreal.
Well, let's go.
Let's go now.
No, Steve.
I go home now to my husband.
You can't come home with me tonight.
He might have an average penis, but he's not stupid.
I'll set it up.
He loves he loves that computer program.
You said "small penis".
Listen, Your Majesty, this apartment is off limits.
Forgive me.
She's very interesting.
Do you love her? Yeah, I'm not really in the mood for a chitchat right now.
Yeah? You want to be alone.
Yeah.
More or less.
You're getting weary of the party? Do you always speak in questions? Do you feel you need to guard her from them? Listen, Kingy I'm sure, given the circumstances, you and I are gonna get to know each other very well.
And I do look forward to that.
But right now, you need to get your creepy self out of my bedroom.
We don't have much time, Henry.
Something is happening here.
You've started something.
You're gonna have to finish it or fix it.
Familiar? Yeah.
After the taxi, this is what brought me back here.
And all your new friends too.
Where does this go? This will probably take you back to the way things were before.
Probably? Well, it doesn't come with instructions.
But that's what happened to me.
So, what? I just round everyone up, take a trip through the door and everything goes back to the way it was before.
No, no, no.
Just you.
Henry, if you take them, they'll still be with you.
What's Potter doing? Hmm.
Staring at the door.
Why should I trust you? Well, that's up to you.
So, what if you go through the door and I never see you again, and I'm stuck with ghost zoo for the rest of my life.
Look, he said he did it before.
He went through and everything went back to the way it was before.
It resets the order.
Morning.
This apartment is off limits.
Yes, I know.
Does he go too? Yes, I go too.
Suzy? Steve.
Who's this? Ex-husband.
Interesting.
Oh, God.
Steve is here now.
Brilliant.
Hi, Steve.
Where's Verity? She goes to school, Monday to Friday, most weeks.
Great.
Great.
Suze, I want to show you something.
Thank God.
Take a look at that.
You, uh, recognise that man? Yes, it's, um it's you.
What? Well, it looks like you.
Are you in trouble? It's a police identikit picture, isn't it? Of me and Steve's love child.
It's supposed to be my spirit guide the man I saw when I died here.
Yep.
Steve, I'm really busy.
I've got to go to work, so Busy doing what? Talking to yourself? What? Sorry? I beg your pardon? Oh, don't put on your school mistress crap.
Even though it is a slight turn-on, madam.
You need help.
This whole talking to yourself thing is a big problem.
And it's getting bigger.
You're telling me.
If you need something, anything, just ask.
Steve is here now.
This guy was her husband? 15 years.
I'm not going anywhere.
So, talk to me.
He's quite amazing.
Very good-looking.
Yeah, and possibly smarter than I thought.
Yes, Steve, I can tell you something.
Can you keep a secret? Suze.
You can tell Steve anything.
Since I've moved into this apartment, I've been involved in a rather unusual relationship.
Oh, my.
Talk to Steve.
He's here now.
Never seen this before.
I have a an imaginary friend.
Nice.
I talk to him all the time, out loud.
What, are you five? Sorry.
This is obviously how you cope without me.
Yes, Steve.
Thank you for letting me share it with you.
I need to go to the toilet now.
You are great.
Are you here now? Great skin.
Why don't you use your own bathroom? Don't think about that too much.
Come on, let's go.
Hi.
Sorry I'm late.
These things happen.
So, you've found everything.
Yes, everything's in order.
Master Jessop's files.
She's wonderful.
Good.
Right.
Lachlan, you ready? I see you've met my new assistant, Penelope.
OK.
Can't you hear it? A weeping wall.
It's so loud.
She's weeping all the time, and it's getting louder.
Hello? - Is there someone in there? - Who is that? Say it's Jesus.
What? When she's not weeping, she's praying.
She might come out if she thinks her prayers have been answered.
Is that you, Father? Hang on.
Joan? Joan Dart, is that you, love? Father, I knew you'd come.
Joan.
It's so good to see you.
This is Betty and Tang.
Joan died in the dentist's chair.
You must have got stuck here, Joan.
Who are you? I'm Henry.
And you look like you could do with a nice cup of tea.
I wish we could sedate every patient.
I know exactly what you mean.
Suzy, she's got somewhere to go.
She keeps checking her watch.
She was supposed to finish half an hour ago.
She may be a perfectionist.
But she's due for dinner with her mum.
Oh, um do you have to head off? No.
I can stay if you need me.
Um well, when will she come round? Probably 15 minutes.
OK.
Well, why don't you just go and I'll lock up.
If you don't mind.
I'm having dinner with my Mum.
Parents.
Sure.
Parents are important.
OK.
Tell her she did a good job today.
And, uh Uh thank you.
Good job today.
Thank you.
She's amazing.
She smells like a peach.
Oh, Pete, she can't see you.
So? So what? Does that mean I can't feelings for her? Pete, did you have a girlfriend when you were, um before you died? No.
Never.
Never did.
Doesn't matter.
Hmm.
Does Penelope live alone? I don't know.
How old is she? Um, I don't know, Pete.
I'll ask her for you.
Was she born in Australia? I don't know.
Suzy, excuse me.
Um, I think you should know your sister and her fiancé are being watched again.
It's very inappropriate.
Well, they don't know they're being watched, Eddie.
Yeah, but they are trying to be intimate.
And the King is The King is what? He um He is very powerful.
You should stop it.
Please.
Hello.
The King is doing something Untoward.
Untoward to Jonquil.
Jonquil? Jonquil? What? Where is he? Come on.
Where is he? Suzy, what's going on? What's he doing? Hello? Talk to me.
You're scaring me.
What is it? Take it easy.
Just think about this for a minute, Suzy.
Uh Why don't you come and sit down? I just needed to see Zac.
Um, I'm here, Suzy.
What is it? This is what I was talking about.
What? Talking about what? What the King was doing.
The King can do whatever he wants.
So what? So what? Don't start.
Fellas, fellas, can you stop it? It's the last thing she fucking needs, right now.
You're a pervert.
You are disgusting.
You're ruining everything.
Why do you do this? You're ruining everything.
Are you OK? Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma, ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma! You're acting like you've never had sex before.
Hey! Old lady losing the plot big time.
Looks like she might die.
This way.
Suze, you look terrible.
What's happened? Suze? I'm so sorry.
I just, um Suze stay here, drink the brandy.
I better go and see who this old lady is who's losing the plot.
Oh, no.
Oh, no! Jeez, Suzy! Help me.
Someone, please.
You ever seen someone drop dead of fright? Well, um, yes.
She's gonna call the police.
Suzy will lose the surgery.
Settle down, drama queen.
Her children will end up in in an orphanage.
Suze, apparently she's pretty upset.
Henry, I could lose my practice over something like this.
I'm sorry, Suze.
Oh, Mrs Danvers.
You're awake.
How are you feeling, Mrs Danvers? I'm feeling terrible.
Where did you go? I woke up and I was completely alone.
She's very upset.
Terrified.
My family will be beside themselves.
You left me here alone, in the dark, for ages.
It's alright, Mrs Danvers.
I will not charge you.
Goodness me, no.
Do you think this is funny? Is this what you do? Keep your patients locked up in the surgery while you pop out for a drink? I can smell it on your breath.
Give her 100 bucks and cut your losses.
Mrs Danvers, the anaesthetic can sometimes make you This place is a disgrace.
I have been coming here since your father ran this surgery, and he would turn in his grave if he could see how you'd run his business down.
You'll hear from my lawyers.
She's a very good dentist.
Joan.
Joan Dart? You can see me? Yes.
Yes, I can see all of them.
Only me.
And I have to try to be a good dentist.
And I have to try to be a normal mother.
And a person.
And a woman.
And nobody knows that I've got all these voices and opinions.
And Oh! .
.
intrusions hammering at me all day.
Right.
OK.
I'm gonna fix this.
Henry Henry? Henry? Wait.
We can go back to the way things were before.
Paperback's right, you can't live like this.
But do you trust the King? I trust him.
It's gonna be OK.
Good luck.
I hope you find some peace.
Yeah.
So long.
Right, well, that weren't too bad, was it? Mr Sullivan, prepped and ready.
Thanks, Linda.
I'll be right in.
Hello, Linda.
What are you doing back? I thought you'd gone travelling.
Whoa! Suzy, what the hell are those? Suzy? Suzy? Suzy?!
Something's happening here.
We don't know what it is.
I opened a door I wasn't supposed to.
I didn't find answers.
Only more questions.
I needed to be here, no question in my mind.
They asked if they could come.
And I said ".
.
Suzy won't mind.
"She's cool.
" What does this mean now? I opened a door because it was there.
She makes my heart beat like nothing ever did when I was alive.
Some things are meant to be no matter what the risk.
Don't go.
Henry? Sure.
I, uh Oh! Pete! Uh ls Verity awake? Yeah.
She she's having breakfast.
Suzy, I'm still getting used to being seen.
Apologies.
Must have seen lots of things you weren't supposed to then.
Yeah.
But I I do try to be respectful.
It's It's just hard when no-one can see you being good.
Isn't Henry wonderful? I really have to get ready for work.
Yes.
Of course.
Yes, Steve? Yep.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
I can leave it on all day? Yeah.
OK.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
OK.
sure Uh, yeah.
OK.
Sure.
Sure.
So, is she your first? Yeah.
What? You've been seen before? Oh, yeah.
Probably about five times.
Oh, get out! Oh, no, maybe even six.
I'm not Oh! Hello.
Good morning.
Lovely blouse.
Yummy? Cold milk.
Oh! Why are you weird? Sorry? Um, eating your breakfast like you're weird.
Oh! No, I'm not weird.
I'm just thinking, thinking.
Can we get a dog? No.
Do you have a crush on someone? What? No, Verity.
Why would you say something like that? Don't be silly.
Well, when Brianna Jones had a crush on Jeremy, she acted all kind of special, like someone was watching her on TV or something.
Well, maybe I do have a crush on you.
Come on.
That was sweet.
Yeah, very sweet.
This is weird, knowing she can see us.
Having to be polite, Lord.
Like, "Cold milk.
Ooh!" Shut up! Mum, beep-beep.
Beep-beep Hiya.
Hello.
What happens now? Oh, OK.
Um well, when you drive away, we all drop and, um fall really and, uh Come on.
Get in.
You'll see.
If you're the last one to drop, there's this sort of up-draft effect, like you're flying.
Floating, really, but, uh It's quite a buzz, actually.
OK.
I better go.
OK.
Yeah.
OK.
See you later then.
OK.
Good.
Have fun with the flying thing.
Yeah.
Thanks.
Floating, but, um See.
You're smiling to yourself.
Just like you've got a secret.
Maybe I do have a secret.
What is it? Oh, no can't tell you.
It wouldn't be a secret.
Dig it in.
Dig it in.
Linda? Since it's your last day, I think we'll go for the lower eagle beak forceps.
Thanks.
- The eagle.
- My favourite.
Doctor? OK, Adam? You might feel a bit of pressure and some tugging.
If anything hurts, just raise your hand, alright? Just get it out.
I'm dying.
Yeah.
Get it out, come on! Linda? Suction! Suction.
Yes, Doctor.
Oh! Got it! Look at that.
Hey, ninnies, you're missing all the action - hilarious.
A couple of honeymooners are moving into number 4.
And they're not wasting any time, if you know what I mean.
Let's go.
How's your friend, Adam, in London? Uh-huh.
OK.
Well, no eating for two hours.
And Linda will give you some painkillers to take home, OK? Thank you.
This way.
And she'll talk you through the post-op instructions.
You alright? Ha! When does the new one start? Tomorrow.
Oh.
What's she like? Um, she's, uh, very efficient.
Right.
Have you seen Henry around? He's very lucky.
Really? Yeah.
Most of us never get to a place where a living person can see us.
Oh.
Have you met anyone like me? No.
Well There are some who don't like it, who are frightened or go a bit Well, what happens to them? Mr Jones is here.
Don't get a reputation for talking to yourself.
It's the beginning of the end.
Uh, send him in, please, Linda.
Thanks.
That's OK.
How did you find her? I don't know.
Why can she see us? I don't know.
How did we get here? You died, son.
Somewhere, some time, you died.
And now you get to be this.
We may have died but we're not dead.
Dead is so final.
I mean, it's not really Stop.
Stop.
Paperback? You right? Yes, Henry.
You'll find her here most afternoons.
Oh, my.
It's Henry James.
Is it? You chaps like to have a bit of a read then? Brilliant.
Enjoy that.
You and the dentist, what's the story? I'm dead.
She's alive, et cetera, et cetera.
You seem pretty close.
Yeah, well, until you deadheads showed up, she was the only person that could see me.
Without her, I was nothing.
I've been there.
Did 10 years once.
No-one with the gift to see.
None of us around.
This is the first time that I thought we all just lived alone.
Jesus.
How long have you been dead? I died in1917.
You poor bastard.
Thank you.
I'm just pleased that bit's over, really.
Course you are.
Course you are.
Who's next, Linda? There's no more patients today.
We're dusted and done.
Yeah.
Sure.
Great.
So unless you need anything else? No.
No, no.
Magazines look very nice and straight.
Suzy, have you been able to contact my daughter yet? You must be very excited - big overseas trip.
She can't talk, you silly duffer.
I am.
I'm really excited.
But, yeah, a bit nervous.
Mm.
Well, um I'll send you a postcard.
Oh! I bought you a little gift.
A going-away present.
Bon voyage.
Oh, thank you.
Oh! Hey, what's this? It's a travel iron.
It comes with an international plug.
And it takes up no room in your luggage.
Wow! Yeah.
It saved my bacon on a number of conferences.
Bet you none of the other backpackers in China will have one.
You're gonna be popular.
Thank Oh, Linda.
Oh, Linda? Henry told me that you called his mother for him.
He heard her voice.
That's all I want.
It's such a little thing.
Oh, Linda.
There will always be a job here for you.
If there's a vacancy, of course.
Thank you.
Bye.
Bye, Linda.
Oh, golly.
I'm gonna miss her.
You'd do it for Linda if she was dead.
God, you're stupid.
What? Why is Henry so special? Why does Henry get all the special attention? They're very close friends.
He knows a lot about her.
He told me she was the last person he saw before he drowned.
Don't you see what's going on? What are you talking about? You people are so blind.
Henry and Suzy are in love.
Has someone been keeping a secret from us? Please, this is a bathroom.
We're both girls.
You and Henry, hey? What's the story there? Um I don't know what you're talking about.
What's the scoop? Tang! Oh, come on, Suzy, we're all family, all in this together.
Uh I'm not We're going to become the best of friends over the next 50 years or so.
And then you can join us for eternity.
No secrets, Suzy.
Please get out of the bathroom.
Oh! You'll lose that touchy edge very soon, honey.
Out! Now.
Stay here.
I'm gonna go outside for a moment and I want to be alone.
OK.
Verity.
Huh? Turn the TV off and do your homework.
Oh.
Do you mind if we keep watching? Yeah, can't we? Off! Off! Off! Five minutes maybe? Henry, I'm trying to get used to this.
But, seriously, they are in my surgery all the time.
They're in my bedroom.
I just had a very emotional farewell with Linda, with them all watching me.
I can't even do a whiz without them wanting to come in and have a chat.
They are invasive bastards.
What are we gonna do? Did you just say 'whiz? Yes.
They were in the bathroom with me.
Is that funny? Henry perhaps you could ask them to leave? They've had their fun.
I just want them to leave now.
Just please leave now.
Yeah, um Look, they seem to think of this as home.
And, apparently, you are rather special.
Really? Yeah.
You are a, uh mythical creature, to be revered and treasured.
Wow! Yeah.
This is an historic moment and we're right in the middle of it.
Front row seat.
Oh, Dad! What? You got no undies on.
New rule, son.
Now that we are officially living together, and this is a house of no women, when at home, relaxing we free-ball.
Gross.
Nuh.
It feels good.
It feels right.
That toast looks tasty.
That's my breakfast.
Can I have a bite? No Aha! See? That's what I'm talking about.
So what are you doing today? I go to school, Monday to Friday, most weeks.
That's why I'm dressed like this.
I suppose you wouldn't choose to dress like that, would you? Hey? Huh? I'll get it.
Um so, um when are you off to school? About five minutes.
Great.
Hello.
Won't you come in? This way.
Rightio, son.
Go on.
Go, go.
Henry? Be careful.
Of what? Most of us have spent years, decades, completely alone.
No Suzy, no guide book, no other spirits, no Jesus, no Buddha, nothing.
This feels special.
Don't just ruin it because it's slightly inconvenient.
Pete, this is my house, my rules.
That's all.
End of story.
Alright.
Listen up, chaps.
Uh Look, it's been brilliant having you all here.
And, uh, it was very nice to meet you all.
But it's time to move on.
Yeah? Come on.
I mean, why not move on, really? Talk to me, dead people.
Really, you know, what's here for you? We like it here.
It's roomy and the views are nice.
And there's a living person who can see us.
Why would we go, even if we could? This is where we're supposed to be, Henry.
There's nowhere else for us to go.
OK.
Um Look this place is huge, right? What I need you to do is just keep away from Suzy.
Or what? You guys don't get it.
If we don't leave Suzy alone to live a normal life, it won't take long for her to lose her job.
And then she'll lose her children.
She'll be labelled a lunatic and medicated with drugs so strong, she won't be able to see anything at all, not even us.
She'll be taken away and we'll never see her again.
Ever.
Talk to me.
OK.
Can you read lips? Yes I can.
Great.
I'm going to show you a tape.
I want you to tell me what the person is saying.
Pause.
OK.
What's she saying? How much? Huh? How much are you paying? What what? I don't work for free.
Oh, right.
Um well, how much do you charge? Is it one-off or an ongoing stalk? Stalk? This is my wife, OK? I thought she was seeing someone.
I just wanted to know who the guy was, OK? Only fair.
Sure.
But there is no guy.
No-one has seen him.
Dwayne, I'm worried about her mental health.
Can you help me help her? 1,000 bucks a week.
You Hey, hey, hey, hey.
OK.
Sorry.
That's a lot of money.
Read my lips.
1,000 bucks a week.
Cash.
How good are you? You have no idea.
You understand what she was saying? Every word.
Hi.
Hi.
Welcome.
This is great.
Well, it's not as posh as your place.
But I never married a rich man, so Oh don't touch anything there.
That's Zac's study.
Has he started working on the biography yet? Yeah.
Oh Oh! I can have sleepovers here.
And if ever I forget something, I can just go upstairs and get it.
Well, yeah, we can work up to that.
Yay! Come and see the bedroom.
OK.
Well, I haven't finished unpacking yet.
I haven't made it look nice.
Oh, no, no, it's lovely.
Cosy.
This is terrible.
We shouldn't be here.
Apologies, Suzy.
Crap.
They have sex all the time and we like to watch.
It's so private.
And it's so quiet.
When we lie here, it's like the rest of the world doesn't exist.
Lovely.
Let me see the kitchen.
Sure.
Don't worry, Mum, you'll have a boyfriend one day.
You're so pretty.
Yes, Mum, a boyfriend, someone who can give you what you need.
Rock star can't give you that, can he? Thank you.
You're so sweet.
What's she saying? "Henry.
Henry, I can't stand this any longer.
" Unintelligible, unintelligible "Possibly "Why can't you not be?" Hey, hey, hey, hey.
You said you could read every word.
Stan It's Steve.
Whatever.
When her face isn't on the screen, I can't read her lips.
Plus, we are at a distance, which makes it very difficult.
Alright.
Just keep going.
"I want you.
I want Steve now.
"Steve now, or I'll lose my" Unintelligible, unintelligible "Really.
" Steve now.
Steve is here now.
She's pretty.
You think? Yeah.
I'd stalk her too.
No-one's here.
We've come to an arrangement.
They can have the run of the rest of the apartments.
But our house is now off limits.
Oh, great! Where's Verity? School.
Just us? Yeah.
In our house.
OK.
Our house.
Yeah.
Goose bumps.
Shh.
Listen.
I can hear your heart beat.
Oh, for fuck's sake.
I know there are some new rules and that you're possibly having a lovey-dovey moment together, however that works.
But someone very important is here to see you.
Who is it? The King.
The King? Elvis.
Excuse me? Henry Mallet we hear you've caught yourself a live one.
Hello.
I'm Suzy.
Yes, we know who you are.
And who might you be? I am the King.
Oh, right.
The King of fucking what? Oh, sorry.
Forgive me, Your Majesty.
What are you doing here? I go wherever I like.
But to use a modern phrase that I quite like, this is where the action is for now.
Pretty cool, hey? Where did they come from? We don't know.
He was floating.
Floating.
Yep.
I better get Verity.
I can't stop thinking about him, Magda.
Your spirit guy, right.
Mm.
Oh, don't go.
Steve, book club never goes past midnight.
Hamish will worry.
Five minutes.
I died for 92 seconds, and I saw that guy.
I mean, there must be a reason for this - a a purpose.
Why have I been given this gift? Yes.
"Yes"? Are you even listening properly? Sorry.
Do you remember what he looked like? So clearly.
I have a photographic memory, which used to drive the smart kids crazy at school.
I could get Hamish to do an identikit picture of him.
What? Well, my husband's a cop, right? And he has a small penis.
So what? Look, I told you, I don't like you talking about him when we have no clothes on.
Steve, it's his job.
He makes identikit pictures of criminals from people's memories.
You could have a picture of him.
It might help you solve your spiritual riddle.
Unreal.
Well, let's go.
Let's go now.
No, Steve.
I go home now to my husband.
You can't come home with me tonight.
He might have an average penis, but he's not stupid.
I'll set it up.
He loves he loves that computer program.
You said "small penis".
Listen, Your Majesty, this apartment is off limits.
Forgive me.
She's very interesting.
Do you love her? Yeah, I'm not really in the mood for a chitchat right now.
Yeah? You want to be alone.
Yeah.
More or less.
You're getting weary of the party? Do you always speak in questions? Do you feel you need to guard her from them? Listen, Kingy I'm sure, given the circumstances, you and I are gonna get to know each other very well.
And I do look forward to that.
But right now, you need to get your creepy self out of my bedroom.
We don't have much time, Henry.
Something is happening here.
You've started something.
You're gonna have to finish it or fix it.
Familiar? Yeah.
After the taxi, this is what brought me back here.
And all your new friends too.
Where does this go? This will probably take you back to the way things were before.
Probably? Well, it doesn't come with instructions.
But that's what happened to me.
So, what? I just round everyone up, take a trip through the door and everything goes back to the way it was before.
No, no, no.
Just you.
Henry, if you take them, they'll still be with you.
What's Potter doing? Hmm.
Staring at the door.
Why should I trust you? Well, that's up to you.
So, what if you go through the door and I never see you again, and I'm stuck with ghost zoo for the rest of my life.
Look, he said he did it before.
He went through and everything went back to the way it was before.
It resets the order.
Morning.
This apartment is off limits.
Yes, I know.
Does he go too? Yes, I go too.
Suzy? Steve.
Who's this? Ex-husband.
Interesting.
Oh, God.
Steve is here now.
Brilliant.
Hi, Steve.
Where's Verity? She goes to school, Monday to Friday, most weeks.
Great.
Great.
Suze, I want to show you something.
Thank God.
Take a look at that.
You, uh, recognise that man? Yes, it's, um it's you.
What? Well, it looks like you.
Are you in trouble? It's a police identikit picture, isn't it? Of me and Steve's love child.
It's supposed to be my spirit guide the man I saw when I died here.
Yep.
Steve, I'm really busy.
I've got to go to work, so Busy doing what? Talking to yourself? What? Sorry? I beg your pardon? Oh, don't put on your school mistress crap.
Even though it is a slight turn-on, madam.
You need help.
This whole talking to yourself thing is a big problem.
And it's getting bigger.
You're telling me.
If you need something, anything, just ask.
Steve is here now.
This guy was her husband? 15 years.
I'm not going anywhere.
So, talk to me.
He's quite amazing.
Very good-looking.
Yeah, and possibly smarter than I thought.
Yes, Steve, I can tell you something.
Can you keep a secret? Suze.
You can tell Steve anything.
Since I've moved into this apartment, I've been involved in a rather unusual relationship.
Oh, my.
Talk to Steve.
He's here now.
Never seen this before.
I have a an imaginary friend.
Nice.
I talk to him all the time, out loud.
What, are you five? Sorry.
This is obviously how you cope without me.
Yes, Steve.
Thank you for letting me share it with you.
I need to go to the toilet now.
You are great.
Are you here now? Great skin.
Why don't you use your own bathroom? Don't think about that too much.
Come on, let's go.
Hi.
Sorry I'm late.
These things happen.
So, you've found everything.
Yes, everything's in order.
Master Jessop's files.
She's wonderful.
Good.
Right.
Lachlan, you ready? I see you've met my new assistant, Penelope.
OK.
Can't you hear it? A weeping wall.
It's so loud.
She's weeping all the time, and it's getting louder.
Hello? - Is there someone in there? - Who is that? Say it's Jesus.
What? When she's not weeping, she's praying.
She might come out if she thinks her prayers have been answered.
Is that you, Father? Hang on.
Joan? Joan Dart, is that you, love? Father, I knew you'd come.
Joan.
It's so good to see you.
This is Betty and Tang.
Joan died in the dentist's chair.
You must have got stuck here, Joan.
Who are you? I'm Henry.
And you look like you could do with a nice cup of tea.
I wish we could sedate every patient.
I know exactly what you mean.
Suzy, she's got somewhere to go.
She keeps checking her watch.
She was supposed to finish half an hour ago.
She may be a perfectionist.
But she's due for dinner with her mum.
Oh, um do you have to head off? No.
I can stay if you need me.
Um well, when will she come round? Probably 15 minutes.
OK.
Well, why don't you just go and I'll lock up.
If you don't mind.
I'm having dinner with my Mum.
Parents.
Sure.
Parents are important.
OK.
Tell her she did a good job today.
And, uh Uh thank you.
Good job today.
Thank you.
She's amazing.
She smells like a peach.
Oh, Pete, she can't see you.
So? So what? Does that mean I can't feelings for her? Pete, did you have a girlfriend when you were, um before you died? No.
Never.
Never did.
Doesn't matter.
Hmm.
Does Penelope live alone? I don't know.
How old is she? Um, I don't know, Pete.
I'll ask her for you.
Was she born in Australia? I don't know.
Suzy, excuse me.
Um, I think you should know your sister and her fiancé are being watched again.
It's very inappropriate.
Well, they don't know they're being watched, Eddie.
Yeah, but they are trying to be intimate.
And the King is The King is what? He um He is very powerful.
You should stop it.
Please.
Hello.
The King is doing something Untoward.
Untoward to Jonquil.
Jonquil? Jonquil? What? Where is he? Come on.
Where is he? Suzy, what's going on? What's he doing? Hello? Talk to me.
You're scaring me.
What is it? Take it easy.
Just think about this for a minute, Suzy.
Uh Why don't you come and sit down? I just needed to see Zac.
Um, I'm here, Suzy.
What is it? This is what I was talking about.
What? Talking about what? What the King was doing.
The King can do whatever he wants.
So what? So what? Don't start.
Fellas, fellas, can you stop it? It's the last thing she fucking needs, right now.
You're a pervert.
You are disgusting.
You're ruining everything.
Why do you do this? You're ruining everything.
Are you OK? Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma, ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma! You're acting like you've never had sex before.
Hey! Old lady losing the plot big time.
Looks like she might die.
This way.
Suze, you look terrible.
What's happened? Suze? I'm so sorry.
I just, um Suze stay here, drink the brandy.
I better go and see who this old lady is who's losing the plot.
Oh, no.
Oh, no! Jeez, Suzy! Help me.
Someone, please.
You ever seen someone drop dead of fright? Well, um, yes.
She's gonna call the police.
Suzy will lose the surgery.
Settle down, drama queen.
Her children will end up in in an orphanage.
Suze, apparently she's pretty upset.
Henry, I could lose my practice over something like this.
I'm sorry, Suze.
Oh, Mrs Danvers.
You're awake.
How are you feeling, Mrs Danvers? I'm feeling terrible.
Where did you go? I woke up and I was completely alone.
She's very upset.
Terrified.
My family will be beside themselves.
You left me here alone, in the dark, for ages.
It's alright, Mrs Danvers.
I will not charge you.
Goodness me, no.
Do you think this is funny? Is this what you do? Keep your patients locked up in the surgery while you pop out for a drink? I can smell it on your breath.
Give her 100 bucks and cut your losses.
Mrs Danvers, the anaesthetic can sometimes make you This place is a disgrace.
I have been coming here since your father ran this surgery, and he would turn in his grave if he could see how you'd run his business down.
You'll hear from my lawyers.
She's a very good dentist.
Joan.
Joan Dart? You can see me? Yes.
Yes, I can see all of them.
Only me.
And I have to try to be a good dentist.
And I have to try to be a normal mother.
And a person.
And a woman.
And nobody knows that I've got all these voices and opinions.
And Oh! .
.
intrusions hammering at me all day.
Right.
OK.
I'm gonna fix this.
Henry Henry? Henry? Wait.
We can go back to the way things were before.
Paperback's right, you can't live like this.
But do you trust the King? I trust him.
It's gonna be OK.
Good luck.
I hope you find some peace.
Yeah.
So long.
Right, well, that weren't too bad, was it? Mr Sullivan, prepped and ready.
Thanks, Linda.
I'll be right in.
Hello, Linda.
What are you doing back? I thought you'd gone travelling.
Whoa! Suzy, what the hell are those? Suzy? Suzy? Suzy?!
