Spooky Stakeout Page #4
- What can you tell us
about the ghost?
- I've prepared a file.
- Great.
- This is my daughter Alice.
She'll be chaperoning you today
because she thinks it's funny
to super-glue her
teacher to a toilet.
- The plot thickens.
- Remember,
you don't get paid
unless you find the ghost
and get rid of it.
I don't care how.
Got it?
- Five hundred Euros!
This is gonna be the easiest
money we've ever made.
Hello new camera.
- Uh, it's not about
the money, Brian.
It's about getting actual proof
of paranormal activity.
- Okay, yeah, yeah, of course.
- That was my 500 Euro.
I was going to buy a new phone.
- Well, uh,
if you help us find the ghost,
we can come to some arrangement.
- [scoffs]
There's no such thing as ghosts.
When you're done
playing your stupid games,
let me know so I can go home.
- She seems nice.
- Boring.
- Get to the good stuff.
- I'm getting there.
- Give me a chance.
We went deeper into the hotel
looking for clues
amazing presenting skills.
- What we're doing now, people,
is "searching for clues."
Let's see what's going on.
Noah, what are you doing?
- Searching for clues.
- Sell it a bit more.
Give me energy, passion.
Anything!
- What we're doing now is, um,
searching the area for clues,
and this new piece
of hi-tech equipment
measures air temperature.
And a little fact for you,
that the air temperature drops
when you're in the
presence of a ghost.
- Did ya hear that?
Noah's got a fancy
ghost thermometer.
[toy playing music]
- Wait, guys, I forgot!
I need to take a selfie
for my profile picture.
Come on.
Squeeze in.
Three, two, one...
- [screams]
What was that?
- What was what?
- The ghost!
It was right there!
Check the camera.
[eerie music]
It...
I saw it.
It was right there.
I'm sure of it.
I know I saw the ghost.
- Hmm...
- I don't know.
- You don't know what?
- If I write a ghost
wanted to take a selfie,
I don't know if
people will believe me.
- Well, they'll have to
because it happened.
- I'm not calling you a liar.
- If you don't want
to know the truth,
interview Brian.
I'm done.
- She doesn't like
to be questioned.
It's just like when Noah
didn't believe her.
- Did she really see a ghost?
- It was probably
just the camera.
- I know what I saw.
- Hey!
- Hey, check it out.
The ghost must have left it!
It's trying to tell us...
it used to work here.
- It's just a photo, Cian.
Sarah probably
brushed up against it.
- So, hands up who thinks
we should investigate
the people in the photo.
[techno music] N'.
- Brian!
- Whatever.
[Cian's headset beeps]
- We've decided to investigate
former hotel employees.
Our next task will be to
figure out if the ghost is male
or female.
[headset beeps]
- What are you doing?
- Documentin'.
It's what the pros do.
- Note to Cian:
Get a life.
[door slams shut]
- Stop playing around.
- I'm not.
Check for yourself.
[door handle jiggling]
- It won't open.
[grunting]
It won't open!
- What's wrong with him?
- I think he's claustrophobic.
- Someone open the door!
Someone open the door!
[door handle jiggling]
- Do it!
- Don't!
- Do it!
- Don't!
- Do it!
- Sorry.
- [scoffs]
[lights clinking]
Still think there's no ghost?
There's another
way out over here.
[Cian's equipment beeping]
- We're now searching
the kitchen for clues.
if the ghost is male
or female...
Oh yeah, remind Mum
to get more Coco Pops.
[Cian's equipment beeping]
[thermometer beeping]
- Temperature is
way down over here.
- That's because you're
beside the freezer.
- Oh, yeah.
- Does anyone else smell that?
- Fart and die.
- No.
[sniffs]
Seriously.
- What is that?
- It smells like...
flowers?
[door slams]
[Spooky music]
- Okay, who touched something?
- [screaming]
Please tell me
you got that on camera!
- Got what?
- Brian!
- Sorry.
- Well, was it male or female?
- I don't know.
It was there and then it wasn't.
A female, I think.
- You think?
[Spooky music]
- Sarah,
I really want you
to be part of this story.
I know how important
you are to the team.
Brian thinks you're dead smart.
I'm sure you found loads
of clues in that hotel.
I'm right, aren't I?
Please.
- Well, there was one clue
I'm particularly proud of...
You could help search, y'know?
- I'm documenting.
Pretend I'm not even here.
- I always pretend
you're not here.
- Me, too.
-[chuckles]
[makes exploding sound]
- Well, when I'm rich
and famous,
we'll see who'll be
laughing then.
- Here we go.
Employee's names
and phone numbers.
We should call them,
find out what they know.
- That's a long list.
It could take hours.
[telephone ringing]
- Answer it, Noah.
[ringing continues]
- [screaming]
[strange mixed up
language speaking]
- What's it saying?
[strange mixed up
language speaking]
- Extremely weird.
- Maybe it's
some kind of warning?
- It sounded like
it was stuck on repeat.
- Play it on your camera
in reverse.
- In reverse?
- Just do it!
[camera whirring]
- Seventy. Seventy.
Seventy. Seventy.
Seventy.
- Seventy?
What's that?
A room number?
- There is no room seventy.
- Maybe it's the ghost's age.
- Hey!
Hey look,
there's a birthday card here.
- "Happy 70th Birthday."
Here, let me check.
This must be her.
Mrs. Turner.
- How did you know
how to do that?
- My dad's obsessed with vinyl.
I used to play
his records in reverse.
- Clever.
[radio static]
- Shh!
Listen to that.
- What is it?
[equipment beeping]
- Quick! Hide!
- To anyone listening to this,
if I don't make it through,
I want my action figures
and my games consoles
to go to my brothers.
On second thought,
I want them to be buried
with me just in case.
- Ah!
- [screams]
- I will literally never
- Hi, I'm Alex.
Cian?
- Hey!
- I saw her first.
- Um, where's Noah?
You guys were together.
- Yeah, well, we were...
- Hey, Noah.
Check this out.
This fella looks like my granny.
- Noah?
And then he just vanished.
- Maybe he went home.
- Brian, maybe.
Not Noah.
- Whose idea was it
to come here anyway?
Alex?
- Not me.
- I got an anonymous lead.
here for a reason?
[sinister laughter]
- That's not normal.
- We found this.
- That's so weird!
- Still think
it's a coincidence?
- A bell?
- I don't get it.
- We found one
just like it in the hotel.
[equipment beeping]
- We now believe the ghost
to be an old woman
named Mrs. Turner.
We're now searching
some staff bedrooms
for more information on
why she haunts the hotel.
[headset beeping]
[drawer jiggling]
- Here, let me try.
- I can do it!
- Ugh, I always miss
all the good stuff.
- You alright?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
[desk bell rings]
- Guys, maybe Mrs. Turner
was a receptionist.
- We should take this with us.
It might be valuable.
I mean, a clue.
