Dad?

God, Cameron, no.

Sunday.

Five an hour ago.

I just read my dad was in the room.

Did he feed Cameron?

I'll get up.

No, no, no.

He needs some sleep.

I rest when I'm dead.

You go back to sleep.

One, one, one, two.

One, one, one, two.

Paperboy, every time it rains in, the puddle never fails.

Look at all the rain up there. Look at all the rain up there.

Look at all that.

It's coming down.

Greg?

Honey, you know where the spare key is.

Yes? Kathy Allen?

Are you the wife of Greg Allen?

Oh, my God.

May we come in? Oh, my God.

I'm afraid we have some bad news. Oh, no.

No.

And then he actually starts, like, crying.

Oh, no way.

Swear to God, crying.

You know, I was like, yeah, right.

I like you so much.

I just think about being with you all day long.

You know, he said the same thing to Tanya. Yeah, but I didn't fall for it.

Can we just go over the rest of this stuff later?

I guess. But he said the exam's going to cover chapters 11 and 12.

He's going to focus on the iris.

What about the retina, though?

That, too. I mean, just highlight both of them.

So we need to get together, because, like, I don't get this stuff at all.

Hi, this is Marion. I can't get to the phone. Please leave a message at the

beep. Thanks.

Hi, this is Marion. I can't get to the phone. Please leave a message at the

beep. Thanks.

Hi, this is Marion. I can't get to the phone. Please leave a message at the

beep. Thanks.

Hi, this is Marion.

I can't get to the phone. Can you leave a message at the beach? Thanks.

Hi, this is Marion.

I can't get to the phone. Can you leave a message at the beach? Thanks.

Hi, this is Marion.

I can't get to the phone. Can you leave a message at the beach? Thanks.

Hi, you've reached Kathy and Greg. We can't get to the phone. Please leave a

message. Thanks.

Who are Kathy and Greg?

Hi, you've reached Kathy and Greg. We can't get to the phone. Please leave a

message. Thanks.

Hi, you've reached Kathy and Greg. We can't get to the phone. Please leave a

message. Thanks.

Hi, you've reached Kathy and Greg. We can't get to the phone. Please leave a

message. Thanks.

Well, it was like a voice in my head, but it wasn't, and it was my voice, but

heard Kathy and Greg.

Do you know any Kathy and Gregs? No.

So there's a message they need to receive.

Can you help me out here?

Well, no, that's why I'm asking you. He's asking his other guides.

We all have them, all of our lives, and they change as we change.

We see seven people in the room. Elmer sees about 30. I'll get more chairs.

No, Warren.

It's hard to get a read.

It's not a ghost.

This must be a new spirit.

Doesn't know yet how to get his message across to this Greg and Kathy.

Wouldn't the spirit's guide on the other side help?

What, they're taught to communicate with us?

Well, you're being taught to communicate with them.

That could be why Marion got this message.

She's new at this, too.

She and that spirit are speaking the same language at the moment.

Oh, no, we're not, though, because I don't get it.

Spirits new to the other side communicate in abstract ways.

To us, it's a big pain in the ass. For instance, a message machine because it

wants to get a message to Greg and Kathy.

Yeah, new spirits use what you might call easy access energy.

Lights, telephones, answering machines.

It's easier to tap into than a person's energy. When they get good at it,

then...

some bad news.

His stomach has probably gone with that big toe save on the first shot he's

experienced in the NHL.

tough to be a Boston fan.

Place the ring on the table, please.

Thank you.

Is your mother's ring?

I never left her finger from the day she was married to the day she died.

I have so many questions to ask her.

Okay, there is a woman. Who's Ellen?

Oh, no, it's Ellen spelled with an A.

Adeline? Adele.

That's my mother.

She's angry.

That's my mother.

Okay, there's another woman coming through. Not that office. A sister, a

My sisters are alive.

She's talking over your mother.

My mother's sister.

Sounds like Maxine.

That's right.

Okay, there's something you should do about... Who's Anthony?

My son.

Okay, there are three men pushing through. A small child, an old man.

Black suit, tie, his son standing not with him.

Damn it. It's not my husband and father.

No, he's not here for you. He's here for me.

Well, tell him to get out of here.

He can't go away.

There's blood all over him. An accident.

He has a message he needs to get through to me.

I paid for this time. Someone is sad, angry. Someone can't move on.

This is a dime, so he can call us when he gets to heaven.

a birthday, a year.

That'd be an 888 -year -old ghost.

Warren, honey, set that furniture and those allen wrenches aside and put that

together later.

No, no, they're telling me I should do it now.

You didn't receive any other feeling about this number? Oh, Miles, I've never

had a spirit come through when I wasn't using psychometry.

Oh, you were. You were holding that woman's wedding ring.

If it wasn't a personal object of the guy who presented himself, that I could

think. It's just odd that you, Mark, and Marion all have such indefinable

paranormal episodes in the same week. I mean, there's got to be a connection.

What would connect them? The spirit.

Huh?

Look, the spirit guy, he needs to communicate with someone on this side,

But he needs help.

So first, he plugs into Marion. Because she's new at this, right? Just like him.

I'm still not sure I believe that. No, Marion goes to a meeting where there's a

whole bunch of people who have the ability to receive these signals. And

like what Elmer said, this new spirit, he's still learning on the other side.

don't know if that's true. Just, just, just, okay.

The spirit advances, attempting communication with the next most

others, Mark. And then when that falls short, he moves on to the person who is

most advanced, next to Elmer, you.

Well, that I could see.

All right, now, Marion hears Kathy and Greg, and Mark feels extreme grief.

You're presented with 1 -1 -1 -2.

Got to be an address.

Kathy and Greg, somebody, must live at 1 -1 -1 -2 something street.

We check every street with a 1 -1 -1 -2 address, see if Kathy and Greg live

there. Should we borrow the MIT matrix factorization computer to do that for

Oh, right.

Guess we would sort of need their last name, huh? Yep.

Alan Wrench.

Alan.

Their last name is Alan.

Oh, man.

He's more advanced than me.

Mrs. Allen?

Mrs. Allen?

Mrs.

Allen?

Are you okay?

Kathy?

What? What are you doing here?

I'm so sorry. The door just opened, and I thought... I don't know how

to begin.

First of all, please accept my sympathy and understanding about your recent

loss.

I didn't come here to make your pain deeper.

What I have to say may help.

I don't know if you believe in this kind of thing.

I'm a spirit medium.

And your husband has come to me and to others I know.

He has a message for you.

He needs for you to move on.

It's causing great pain on the other side.

Not death?

Oh, no, no. No one ever really dies.

Your son has passed on.

Good.

But your husband hasn't.

See, you're preventing him.

I realize life may never be the same, but you really need to move on by

him go.

Get out of our house.

Please, I really... Get out of our house.

She loses her husband and her three -month -old boy in a car accident. And a

week later, there's a stranger in her house saying that her husband's spirit

in pain.

I believe you, Ellen. I do believe you. But how can you expect her to believe?

Well, most people do. No, you do.

We do.

Not everyone.

Mark, do you realize 70 % of husbands and wives who lose their mate experience

after -death communication with them? You need to let her recover.

She had to grieve in her own way.

What about his grief?

It's going to stay in that house.

It's going to stay in her.

He's begging her to let him go.

And if she's unable or refuses to understand that, I don't think he ever

Let me take you home.

I need to check on a patient first, then David can cover for me.

Okay. You'll be all right?

Excuse me, miss. Is anyone helping this man? This gentleman just over here. I'll

be with you.

All right, Ellen, I'm all set.

What's going on?

She's not dead.

Mark? What?

Greg Allen.

Glasgow Coma Scale is a standardized system to assess the degree of brain

impairment and to identify the seriousness of injury to outcome.

13 to 15 is a mild brain injury. 9 to 12 is moderate.

Greg Allen's Glasgow score is 2.

The auto accident created complete loss of motility, sensation, and

consciousness.

He'll never recover.

He has, however, been removed from a respirator and retained autonomic

functions, and so he may remain alive for many years.

Their son Cameron was killed on impact.

How could you not know he was still alive?

It's my fault, okay? It's my fault. I checked death certificates for Alan.

I found the son Cameron. He died on the day of the accident. Then I checked the

newspaper, and I found a report of the incident. It said the father, Greg, had

been driving the car hydroplane. He suffered major injuries. He wasn't

to survive, so... We never followed up on his death certificate.

I mean, Marion, Mark, Warren, we all had contact with his spirit, so

I just assumed he was dead.

Well, my other guides couldn't help him because Greg hasn't passed over.

He's neither here nor there.

Well, why can't he pass on?

Our bodies die, so there's no physical pain on the other side.

But our souls live on, so there is spiritual pain.

Greg will suffer there as long as Kathy suffers here.

He can't move on until she lets him.

She's like Miles.

She doesn't see it all.

I mean, like this kind of stuff.

Yeah, I'm well aware of my limitations. Thank you, Warren.

Well, can't you take her and show her the other side like you did with me? You

were already there.

I couldn't show her the other side without the possibility that she might

come back.

And I blew the opportunity of us presenting her with anything we know.

did.

Kathy's heart is shut down to this world, let alone the possibility of any

other. Look, I have to make up for what I did.

So, Elmer, is there any way that I can make her aware of the way he's trying to

reach her?

There may be a way, but it can't be you.

Mrs. Allen, my name is Elmer Greentree.

The nurses won't know that I'm here.

I came into this world in 1917.

I've been talking to the other side since, well, before I could talk to

this side.

When I was 25, the Royal Air Force asked...

General Eisenhower himself. They could borrow an army private.

I was sent to England, and I helped pilots shot down and killed over Germany

find their way home.

It was the Apollo fire, Marines in Beirut,

and I hope now your husband.

We all have to leave.

I intend to leave soon.

But I'll be back, and so will you.

Your boy, Greg.

Greg is alive.

His body is here.

But not his soul.

It has gone.

I don't even recognize him.

My best friend.

I spend hours looking at him and I know my best friend is

gone.

I can't accept that I'll never sit beside him in our seats at the game.

Let him do and go on about his hatred of the Montreal Canadiens.

Ever see how he looked at his son?

It hadn't rained that morning. If the coffee pot hadn't broken, if I had

up, if that damn kid had just slept ten more minutes.

Mrs. Allen, there are no ifs.

We come to this side to learn and grow on the other side.

We choose these events.

Our heartaches, our disappointments.

Our grief.

All have a purpose.

What purpose could this have?

You and Greg and Cameron have lived many lives.

And you'll live many more.

Each time there's a lesson that makes your eternal love greater.

Stronger. Shut up!

If it's gone, I will never know it again.

Life's a bitch and then you die.

I wish that stupid thing on a stupid T -shirt until that Sunday

morning.

Now it's the only truth I know.

Goodbye.

The butterfly is a symbol of transformation.

He showed it to you because he wants to move on.

It was a visit, Mrs. Allen.

Not a dream.

Good afternoon.

I know three's a crowd, but I...

Brought Miriam here along. She's new at this and wants to learn.

She's pretty good at it, too.

I heard you met Satori.

Hi.

Hi.

Living room's this way.

I'm sorry.

Did he have a personal effect made of metal?

Metal is a conductor of energy and a departed person's energy.

usually remains best in a metal object.

Maybe something that was dear to him?

Oh, I think this is plastic.

I know something with metal, but you can't hold it in your hands.

They were his seats at the garden.

It was our first date.

He proposed to me in them.

1 -1 -1 -2 became our way of saying I love you.

Okay, there's a woman coming through. She's standing very close to you. That

means she is close to you. A mother, a grandmother.

Does this make sense to you? Not really.

Yes or no?

Who is Louise?

My great -grandmother. She's dead, yes?

Yes. She wants you to know she's okay.

Gramps is with them, but not now.

Who's Da?

My great -grandfather.

Okay, he's come in. He's all right. They died when I was 10. I'm over it. What

about Greg?

They're showing me a car, a Cadillac. This was their car?

What about Greg? Yes or no, please.

She can't ask questions. She can only convey what they show her. Okay, I'm

getting shoes. There's shoes hanging from the mirror.

They keep showing me this car.

They want you to move on. I want Greg.

They can't see him.

That something's keeping them from seeing him.

Something's preventing him from moving on.

I see a bear on a shirt.

Sometimes it's like cosmic charades, how they get their message across.

Pictures, symbols.

We have to find a connection.

Water, a frozen lake. This is why you're not moving.

Does this make sense to you? Okay, Gramps is here now. He's showing me a

player. Does this mean anything to you?

There's a bear on the jersey. The number is eight.

This is your answer.

You're fooling me. He played for the Boston Bruins.

Number eight, Cam Neely.

Cameron.

They've left.

Because we got the message.

Your husband won't leave until you're no longer angry with your son.

Shut the front door when you leave.

Maybe we should move on from their life.

Yeah.

There's only one person can help her.

It's plastic.

And rubber.

It'll do.

I know babies can communicate with their mothers, but this is a pretty complex

idea.

Well, Cameron was only three months old.

His spirit is timeless.

I don't know how Cameron will express to her what she needs to understand.

Kathy's stuck on what ifs, how life would have been.

I suspect the answer lies in there.

Mark, are we ready, Dr. Wise?

As a physician, I'd advise against it. As one of the others...

Yeah, I'm ready.

Didn't have any children this time around.

But I have an idea how being a parent must feel.

Every time I go to the other side, chances get greater that I won't be

You're not the chipper young dude you were, say, six months ago?

No, Miles, I'm not.

But the reason I may not be back is I like it over there.

If I stay.

I fed him an hour ago.

I'll get up.

No, you need some sleep.

One, one, one, two.

Oh, Cameron.

Are you hungry?

Come on, sweetie. Mommy's here.

I'll speak. Okay, sweet. Nine to have in this area.

Drink only your milk.

The Bruins are the Stanley Cup champions!

I guess there's things to do on this side, yeah.

Is there any food?

How are you looking?

I can't take you guys anywhere.

Come on, bud.

The only thing I wish is that not just my son had made contact.

I wish my husband could tell me if he's all right.

He'll find a way.

Mrs. Allen, do you wish to say your final goodbye?

There's no such thing.

Hello?

Hello?
