back here again.

Do you understand me?

He is not your husband.

She's, uh, confused.

I think she was

sleepwalking again.

He is lying to you.

He is lying.

He's taken over Olivia's father.

Oh, I mean... God,

I mean my father.

Anne...

You take care of Emily.

I am going to take Olivia

upstairs to her room.

No!

It's all right, Olivia.

It's me.

It's dad.

No!

Hey! Hey! Help!

Help! Please call the police!

Help!

Help!

Oh! Oh!

Silly girl.

Don't you know a ghost can

never leave its house?

Lisa.

Lisa.

Honey, wake up. It's okay.

Shhhh.

It's okay. It's okay.

I'm right here.

You've been out for a while...

a few hours.

You collapsed on the front lawn.

I thought that you were

sleepwalking again, but...

you weren't, were you?

I mean, how could any of

us be asleep, since...

We're dead?

I know.

I finally know.

I've woken up, too.

But how?

You told me that I

didn't try to save us.

But you were wrong.

These are the clothes that have

been missing from the laundry.

I packed them that night.

They're yours and

mine and Robbie's.

I was gonna sneak us out of

the house

in the middle of the night while

your father was asleep...

'Cause I was afraid.

I was afraid of

what he might do.

We never made it out of the

house that night, did we?

Have you talked to dad?

No.

He's in that garage as if

nothing ever happened.

- I'll go talk to him.

- No!

Mom.

No.

Mom, trust me.

It's okay.

All of us are safe now,

and the only thing left

for us to do is leave.

Dad is the last one who

needs to understand that.

You tried to tell

me again and again.

I'm so sorry, sweetheart.

It's okay.

I know what to do.

Oh, hey, there, kiddo.

How are you feeling?

Where are the spark plugs, dad?

What do you mean?

No one stole them.

You lost them on purpose.

Lisa, I don't know what

you're talking about.

You hid them from yourself.

All right.

Why would I do that?

Because you knew what

you were turning into.

Now, where are they, dad?

Deep down, you know.

Take them out.

Why?

Do you feel anything?

Not a thing.

I told you, I don't know

what you're talking about.

Put them back in the engine.

All right, Lisa, I've had just

about enough of this nonsense.

The engine.

Turn the key.

Dad?

Do you remember?

Do you remember what

happened to us?

I used ether...

On you...

And Robbie and your...

and your mom.

And then I carried you...

Downstairs into here...

From your bedrooms.

And then I...

And then you did what?

God.

Oh, God.

You and Robbie and mom...

my whole family.

What have I done?

No.

It wasn't you.

Of course it was me!

No, no, it was someone else.

He got inside you.

He did this to us.

Who?

Bruce!

Bruce!

Carol, I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

What's happening?

We're awake... all of us.

Mommy, where are you?!

I'm right here.

What's going on?

We need to get out of this

house.

Mommy, the sun's out!

Robbie!

Carol!

Carol! Robbie!

It's all right, sweetheart.

We can leave.

Lis?

I love you, dad.

I love all of you.

Lisa!

Lis!

Get out of my my house, Lisa.

Where do you think

you're going, little butterfly?

You cannot hide from

me in this house,

and certainly not in

my own room.

I don't need your

company anymore.

I don't need your family's.

I got a new one to add

to my collection.

Olivia!

Olivia, where are you?

Olivia!

Olivia, bring me back!

Olivia!

Olivia, open this

door right now!

Olivia!

Where are you, Olivia?

Silly girl.

I'm here.

I've got your things, so

listen to me, all right?

Wake up.

All of you, wake up.

We can send this bastard to hell,

but we have to do it together.

Frances... Please.

Please. Help me.

No one can help you now, Lisa.

Shh.

Just go to sleep.

Go to sleep, now.

Hello, Lisa.

You just won't let go

of Olivia, will you?

Such a plucky girl.

You know, you were the same way

when you were alive.

Trying to save your family from

me,

trying to fight the tide.

And yet here we are,

the two of us,

and it ends the same.

History doesn't repeat itself.

It rhymes.

Time for you to go, Lisa.

Go ahead, step across.

Your home is gone.

Your time is gone.

There's nothing left for you

but oblivion...

a place

worse than death.

I don't care.

You can send me wherever the

hell you want, but you're not

killing this family tonight.

You can't get the keys,

so you can't start the car.

Olivia's father leaves the

spare on the workbench.

No!

No!

I always do enjoy killing you.

Goodbye, Edgar.

Aaaaaah!

Aaaaaah!

Olivia?

What happened?

- I'm so sorry, Olivia.

- It's okay, dad.

We're gonna be a

happy family again.

Have a good life, Olivia.

Lisa Johnson.

Lisa, wake up.

Lisa, I found the pirate

treasure.

We're gonna be rich.

Come downstairs so I can

give you your share.

Hurry.

It's your birthday present.

Happy Birthday, Lisa.

Happy 16, sweetheart.

Dad?

Mom?

Where are we?

We're home, honey.

We're finally home.

You want to take it for a spin?

Will you come back for some

cake and pirate treasure, Lisa?

What's out there?

Whatever you want there to be.

Lisa.
