Lisa?

Go to back inside, Lisa.

I got a lot of work here to do.

Go on.

You, uh, go ahead, sweetheart.

Good night.

Good night, dad.

Lisa.

Who are you?

Why are you here?

What do you want?

Lisa Johnson.

Get away!

Lisa... Lisa, are you there?

Wake up, please.

Something's wrong. I'm hiding.

Come downstairs quick.

Bruce, stop it!

Stop it!

What?

Stop it!

Then tell me where they are.

I have no idea.

You stole them from me.

Why would I do that, Bruce?

You stole them.

Stop lying!

Mom?

Dad?

Lisa, go upstairs.

Take Robbie with you.

Do you know where the

spark plugs are, Lisa?

The... the what?

I have been trying to fix the

car all morning, and I've now

discovered that it's just the

spark plugs.

They're missing from the engine.

Somebody's taken them.

Was it you?

Was it you?!

No.

No, dad.

I don't know what

you're talking about.

- Mom, no, don't answer it.

- Why not?

Please. Please, mom, don't.

Lisa, I am not gonna shut out

the rest of the world just

because your father

gets upset sometimes.

Good morning, ma'am.

I'm from the phone company.

We're checking the lines

in the neighborhood today.

Has your phone been

out this morning?

Well, yes, in fact, it has.

We get a lot of static

because of the fog.

I'm terribly sorry for

the inconvenience.

Do you mind if I come

in and check the Jacks?

Yes, of course.

Well, it looks like you folks

got quite a mess on your hands,

down here.

I'll check upstairs first.

Lisa? Laundry.

Cold, not hot.

Lisa, do what your mother says.

I... I forgot something in my room.

I'll... I'll be

back in a minute.

How long have you been awake?

What?

How long have you known,

understood?

Um...

I don't... I don't know.

Um, a... a week, maybe.

I... I'm not sure.

Who are you?

What's going on? What...

What happened to us?

I...

Whenever you hear strange

noises in this house,

or voices calling out

to you, ignore them.

Pretend they don't exist, Lisa.

If you should try to contact

the living,

or anyone else,

you and your family

will suffer in ways

you cannot fathom.

Have yourself a wonderful day.

Okay, thank you.

So, Lisa, you gonna start the

laundry?

Did you put something different

in the meat loaf tonight, honey?

'Cause it's... it's fantastic.

I put a little bit

of paprika in it.

That might have done it.

Mom, can I go play with Edgar?

What about chocolate

ice cream for dessert?

Me and Edgar will both

have double scoops.

No, you and Edgar will each

have one scoop.

Go ahead, yosemite Sam.

Lisa, you haven't even

touched your meat loaf.

Ah.

That was amazing.

Where's your cigarette?

I'm sorry?

Don't you always

smoke after dinner?

I don't know what you're

talking about, Lisa.

I don't smoke.

Don't you start

either, young lady.

The surgeon general just came

out with a warning that if...

Wait. How... how can you just act

like nothing even

happened this morning?

This morning?

Are you talking about the clothes

that are missing from the laundry?

Do you know where they are?

Have you decided

where you want to go

for your birthday tomorrow?

Your father gets home at 6:00, so

I was thinking that we could just...

Sorry.

What?

I just... I can't do it anymore.

You can't do what?

I'm sorry.

Where are you going? You

haven't been excused, Lis.

Lisa, where are you going?

It's not safe out there.

Lisa!

Lisa, stop! Come back here!

Lisa!

Lisa!

Hello?

Hey, is anyone out there?

Hello?

Hello?

Please I don't want to

be stuck here anymore.

You hear me? I said

I don't want...

There you are.

Come on back inside, pal,

it's just not safe

riding out there.

Bring your bike back

into the garage.

You can then... Lisa!

Okay, no more games, young lady.

Get inside now.

Mom's got dessert on the table,

and "murder, she wrote"

is just about to start.

Are you here?

I'm sorry I told you to go away

last night.

I was just scared.

I know it should be the other way around...

right?... Since...

You're the one who's alive and

I'm the one who's... Dead?

God, it feels weird

just saying that.

I don't know how I died or why

or...

How long I've been stuck in this

stupid routine with my family.

It's kind of like we've been sleepwalking

for a really long time, but...

Now I'm awake.

There's someone else here, too.

He's dead like me, I think.

He doesn't want me to be awake

or aware.

He told me not to contact you.

But I need to find a way out of

here, and you're the only hope

I've got to figure it out, so...

Please.

Please just talk to me.

Who are you?

What's your name?

What's the first

letter of your name?

You have to move the piece to

the first letter.

Just move it anywhere.

Just say something!

Lisa?

Help me, Lisa.

Please help me.

Olivia?

What are you doing in there?

Look under the floor.

Olivia, what's happening?

You okay?

Open the door.

Olivia!

Lisa Johnson.

Lisa!

Me and Edgar found

the pirate treasure.

Meet us down in the secret cave.

We're gonna spend all

Sunday morning there.

Hello?

Help me.

Lisa!

Sweetheart, pancakes are ready.

Come and help set

the table, please.

You know this is

homemade syrup, huh?

Homemade syrup?

What, you tap the trees

in the backyard?

No, Bruce.

- Mom?

- Mm-hmm?

Edgar wants more pancakes.

Ask and Edgar shall receive.

Phones are working again.

I've got it.

Hello.

Yes.

Can I ask who's calling, please?

Certainly.

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

Just a sec.

Lis, it's a Mr. woods.

He says there's been some

changes to your lab assignment.

He wants to talk to you about it.

Lise, come on. Don't

keep him waiting.

I'm sure he's got lots of other

students he's got to call.

Lis, take the phone.

Goodness sakes.

I thought I told you to mind

your own business.

You are a busy Betty,

and I don't like busy betties.

What's down in that room

under the basement?

Who's down there?

I mean, that's your scrapbook

under my bedroom floor, isn't?

This is my house, Lisa.

It always has been.

Why are you keeping us here?

Stop opening doors that

are meant to be closed.

Why?

What are you gonna do to me?

I'm already dead.

Lisa.

Come and finish your

breakfast, please.

It's gonna get cold.

Mom, can I go play with Edgar?

Okay.

Finish your pancakes first.

You get away from him!

Lisa, no! He's my friend!

Lisa, what are you doing?

Don't you see him?!

See who?

Edgar!

Lisa, stop teasing your brother.

I'm not! He's right...

Lisa.

They only see what I let them

see, Lisa, and so do you.

Mom... Dad?

Robbie?

Oh, Robbie!

No, no, no, Robbie!

Please wake up!

Mom, dad, wake up.

Wake up!

Please wake up.

Oh.

Oh. Oh.

No!

No, no, please!

Please, I don't

want to be alone!

I don't want to be

alone in this house!

Please!

Please bring them back!

Please!

Lisa?

Lis, what's wrong?

Talk to me.

Sweetheart, it's okay.

It's okay.

Everything's all right.

I got you, pal.

I got you.

Lisa.

Leave me alone!

Please!

This is all a mistake.

Things need to go back

the way they were.
