Haunted

Uh, Nick Di Santo.

I'm here to see my mom.

Visiting.

Take the stairs to the second

floor, and someone

will meet you there.

Second?

Can't we go out on the grounds?

I mean, she wants to be private,

can't it be out in

the sunshine or under

a tree somewhere?

Telling you, she never goes out.

In all the years I've been here,

I've never even seen

here in the visitors' room.

Look, she's my mom.

I...

I haven't talked to

her in years.

Yeah, she did get made up

today just to see you.

Look, you get her to go out,

I'll be happy to take you.

Ms. Di Santo?

Your boy's here.

What have you got her on?

She hasn't been medicated today.

Bang on the door when

you're done.

Hey.

You can look at me.

I'm not sure I can.

Yes you can.

Mm.

Look at me.

Oh my.

You look like him.

Why would you say that?

You said you didn't

remember him.

You said it was like trying

to remember a dream.

You said you didn't

know who he was.

Do you know who my father is?

What else do you know, Mom?

Mother!

Mom, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Mom...

No, no, no...

I won't.

Don't, don't.

I won't.

Stop...

Mom...

look, I'm not...

I'm not gonna touch you, OK?

I won't.

Then don't.

Do you... do you want me

to get the orderly?

You want your medication

or something?

I'm supposed to tell you

about your father.

And today is the day that

I promised I would.

Wait, you prom... you

promised who?

The things in the wall.

They listen all the time, and

then they tell me what to do.

And Nicky, today is the day

that they told me I had to

tell you about him.

I'm...

I'm not...

I won't.

I'm warning you.

Oh, Nicky.

Hey!

He's coming for you.

Hey!

Please...

Open the f***ing door!

Your father...

I only remember a nightmare!

So what did she want to say?

She wanted to let me know

that she's still crazy.

So no birthday present, huh?

Let's go find one.

Let's go drink one.

Go, go, go.

Yeah, come on.

That's the guy, right

over there.

Can I buy you guys a beer?

Why?

Is that Nick Di Santo?

What if it is?

You know him?

What if I do?

Can he do it?

You know what?

I don't care.

That is not what I said and

that is not what you said.

Hey, uh, hit me again.

You know what?

I'm through.

Yeah.

No, I'm done.

I'm hanging up.

You got a number for a cab?

Anything I can do?

Bet I got you beat.

For worst day ever.

There's no way you could

beat this one.

What, did your dog

die or something?

Happy birthday!

Happy birthday!

Yeah, 23's kind of a big one.

You don't know?

Um, it takes 23 seconds for

blood to circulate throughout

the human body.

In every person are 23

pairs of chromosomes.

And every 23rd wave that comes

to shore is twice as long and

twice as strong as the one

that came before it.

So 23 is kind of like this,

um, magic number.

I like 23.

How about

you do it, just one time?

I...

I just...

I want to know if you

can really do it.

Hey, what'd I say?

Do what?

What are you doing?

Nick.

Don't...

no.

Relax.

Are you trying

to scare away the first

girl that doesn't think

you're Frankenstein?

Well, if she's the one,

she won't run.

Do not do this.

Please.

If you were sober, you

wouldn't do this.

Hey, uh, Ronny says he'll do it.

Just go up there.

Go put your hand on him.

Touch him.

What?

No, look, it doesn't

work that way.

I have to touch them.

That's rule one.

You can touch me all you want,

but it's not gonna work.

And rule two?

It has to be something bad,

something really bad, or I do

not see you.

There's no way to change it.

There's no information on

why or when or how...

I just see it.

Could somebody just tell me what

everybody's talking about?

Sometimes he can touch somebody

and he can see how

they're going to die.

Seriously?

Hold up your hand.

Nick, please.

Please, just sit down.

Aaaahhhh!

Gotcha.

Whoa!

Whoa, man!

What just happened?

Come on, man, look at me.

Nicky!

Are you kidding me?

Just get out of here!

No, no, no.

What was that?

Did you see... did you

see something?

You just couldn't

leave it alone.

No!

I want to know!

Did you see something?

Dude, come on.

Did you f***ing...

No, I want to know.

What happened?

Shut the f*** up, Nicky.

Ryo!

Shut up, Nicky.

I don't want to get my

ass kicked tonight.

Ryo, look, man.

What?

I'm holding the lady's hand.

And what?

And everything's OK.

You didn't tell him?

I...

I can't understand you.

What did you do?

I did everything.

You were supposed to

tell him about me.

I did everything you asked...

Excuse me?

What?

I was just saying I should

pick up girls

at a bar more often.

Uh, news flash...

I picked you up.

Oh, no, no.

I do not think so.

No, I know so.

Really?

"I'm holding the lady's hand"?

That was your pick-up line?

Do you really see things when

you touch some people?

Bad things?

You're gonna hear some

stuff about me.

You're gonna hear that I moved

from foster home to foster

home since I was nine.

And you're gonna hear that it

was because my mom committed

herself when I was eight.

That's a long scar.

How'd you get it?

When I was seven, I, um, I

thought if I, uh, hurt my

hands, they wouldn't hurt me.

Nicky!

What the f***, man?

Check out the "24 Hour News."

Several area firefighters have

joined the right, and

more are expected.

Again, we have no confirmation

on what started the blaze, but

speculation aside, as this

dramatic footage shows, most

of the facilities residents

caught sleeping on the second

and third floors had little

chance of escape.

Though the number is still

rising, the body count is

already at 74, and the

firefighters expect to battle

the blaze through the night,

with fire departments from as

far west as Pomo and Wheaton

County expected to arrive on

the scene at any moment.

The building has a long and

colorful history and was one

of the oldest...

No, I...

I...

yes, of course.

Yes, I understand.

You can count on me.

You've always been able

to count on me.

Right.

Nick?

Come on in.

Just finishing up a phone call.

I'm Judge Bing.

Have a seat.

Is it necessary to go

over the details of

your mother's death?

Uh, no.

No, I know how my mother

died, Mr. Bing.

Respect Look, it's been

eight months.

I didn't even know

she had a will.

And are you aware that there

is a lawsuit pending against

the institution?

I have no interest

in suing anyone.

Well, I thought you might be

particularly keen on that now.

Given recent unplanned

developments?

Life is full of surprises, Nick.

This is the

reading of the will, right?

And there's no one else here?

In accordance with your

mother's wishes, you alone are

to be here when I give you this.

I'm sorry to say this

is all she left.

I mean, well, what is all this?

Per her instructions, I have

no knowledge of the content.

So if there's any way I can help

once you've been through

it all, anything you need,

don't hesitate to call.

He has it.

And unless I miss my guess,

he's already found it.
