to the old cemetery.

Well, and you just let him go?

Well, I didn't know what to do, Daddy.

Clem! Wait a minute!

I'm coming with you.

He was carryin' on about

a child of glass and restless spirits.

- I didn't know.

- He had a concussion.

Now, you should've

called your mother and me.

Well, you just better

start sayin' your prayers, young lady,

that your little brother's all right.

Blossom, it's me.

Blossom!

- Blossom, why don't vou...

- Gotcha, you little brat.

Didn't think you'd come this way.

Hear them dogs? Well, they're after me.

- You better get outta here.

- No, not before there's a little accident.

See, you're the only one

can put me away.

You're the only one who seen

what happened. Ain't that true?

- I didn't see anything.

- Ah, You're just sayin' that

30's you can save your skin.

You'd tell it like that

the moment you got free.

Well, I hit my head.

I'll tell 'em I can't remember.

Nah. I can't take no chances.

- Theyll know it was you.

- They won't know it was me.

They're gonna think it was an accident.

You're gonna hit your head

on this gravestone.

Blossom, let's go.

Come on!

The doll!

Ah!

Alexander, wait!

Alexander!

You bows, youre on the left,

move out to the left.

Youse on the right, get out on the right.

That's it.

Let's move out.

Hurry!

Whew! Think we gave him the slip.

Yeah.

Alexander.

It's probably close to midnight.

You better give me the doll.

Guess that's it. Just hope we're in time.

I wish we could see her again.

Yeah, I'd like to tell her

I'm sorry for what I said.

And at least say goodbye.

I reckon she's restin' now.

There you are, you little brats.

I ain't done nothing.

You got the wrong guy.

I'm coming.

Help! Stay away! Help! Help!

Help me! There's a haunt back there!

Help! Get away!

Help!

He's runnin' right at us. No.

Hold your fire. Hold your fire.

Help. Help me!

There's a haunt back there.

There's a spirit, right over there!

Come on, let's get outta here, quick!

I give up! I give up! Let's go.

- Thanks, Inez.

- Yeah.

You saved our lives.

It was my pleasure.

Inez, I'm really sorry for those

things that I said last night.

I didn't mean them, honest.

I know that, Alexander.

You and Blossom showed me

that such little differences

between friends do not matter.

It is only a sign that you care

for each other, n'est-ce pas?

You have found her.

You have found my little Babette.

That's the child of glass, Inez.

The last part of the riddle.

Mes arms, you have been very brave.

Both of you.

You faced much danger and hardship

to help me, a stranger, a lost

soul from the other world.

You gave much

of yourselves for another.

And because you did so,

I may now go to my eternal rest.

If only I could repay your kindness.

Does this mean we'll

never see you again?

Not in this life, Alexander.

We ain't gonna get haunted no more?

Only by memories, perhaps.

"When the two shall be as one,

the spirits journey will be done. "

Goodbye, my friends.

Do not forget me.

Inez?

I got something in my eye.

Me, too.

Look, Alexander, the doll!

Diamonds.

It's the treasure that Captain

Jacques Dumaine was looking for.

It's her gift to you and me, Blossom.

Alexander!

Blossom!
