[Woman] Previously on
School Spirits...

Maddie, or at least her spirit,
it's trapped.

This has to be the notebook
we couldn't find, right?

The one Mr. Martin was keeping
on Janet.

Seems like whatever experiment
he was conducting,

they might've been a team.

[Maddie] There's no way.
She was his prisoner.

It wasn't Mr. Martin.

Janet was the one
who took your death objects.

[Wally] I just saw
Mr. Martin.

There was this big red light
behind him

and then he disappeared.

You saw Mr. Martin
in this school?

[Wally] Yeah, and the way
he looked, he's terrified.

Maybe he locked her up
to protect all of you.

[birds twittering]

[bird cawing]

[train whistle in distance]

[coughing]

[Simon] You guys
find anything?

-[Claire] Nope.
-[Nicole] Nothing over here.

-This doesn't make sense.
-[Claire] Which part?

That we're searching outside

some serial killer's
crispy vacation rental?

Or that you think Maddie
somehow set fire to it?

Neither, Claire.
What doesn't add up

is why Janet would wanna go down
in flames with it.

Guys, can we maybe focus less
on what to call our friend

and more on whether or not
she's alive?

I mean, you said she might've
been inside last night.

Yeah, but the cops made us
go home

before we could find out
for sure,

which means we gotta look
for any sign she survived.

Clothing, footprints,
anything.

Otherwise...

Just keep looking.

[Coroner] I just wanna be clear.

She may be hard
to positively ID.

DNA testing
will help eventually, but, uh...

I understand.

Okay. I'm ready.

So you've hopped on
the bodysnatching bus now too?

No, not necessarily,

but you gotta admit,
it's strange.

Why on earth
would Maddie come here?

How about you?

What put you on the sudden
apology tour with her?

I don't know.
I guess, if I ran away,

I'd want y'all to come
looking for me too.

"If"?

[Simon] You guys!

I found something.

Believe me now?

This is proof.

[scoffs] Of what, Simon?

That your twisted ass has gone
to one too many haunted houses?

No. That Janet was here.

And what? What, Simon,
she crawled out of her grave?

[Claire] This is insane.
Where the heck is Xavier?

Guys, Janet is inside
Maddie's body.

Unless you find proof
she didn't die in that fire,

Maddie's never coming back.

She might as well
be buried in this grave.

Please tell me
you're not buying this.

Nicole.

[Xavier panting]

So talked to the cops.

[Simon] And?

Holy shit.

Xavier, what did the cops say?

It's good news.
Nobody died in the fire.

Maddie--I mean, Janet
definitely escaped.

Amazing. Good.

So then where the hell
is she?

[music]

[Clerk] I got you.

Let me just, uh...

They always put these things
so high up.

Where you headed?

Far away from here.

Wow, Quinn,
this is a lot.

I know, but I was kind of
a huge Veronica Marsfan

when I was alive,

so murder board
felt fitting.

I mean, your life
was taken, right?

Right, so what now?

Oh, you know,
you lead the investigation.

Usually, it starts
with a speech.

Hey! Chief has something to say.

Sorry, I always wanted
to do that.

And can I call you Chief?

Uh, sure. Okay,
so here's what we know.

Janet and Mr. Martin
were working together

on crossing over.

It's why they studied
your traumas.

Why they collected
your objects.

But why did they keep them
from you?

What do they do?

And, most importantly,
what turned?

Okay, so maybe the student
became the teacher.

You know, we know Janet could
stop things from resetting,

so maybe Mr. Martin got tired
of playing second fiddle.

Remind me again how any of this
helps us get Janet back.

Because if we know why
these objects were so important,

what they had to do
with crossing over,

we can finish
what she started.

Dangle the carrot,
then she cooperates.

Classic Mars move.

And you think that,
after all these years

of our two big bads
failing to crack it,

you can just flip
the crossover switch for Janet?

I don't know.
That's why we're trying to...

Follow-up question,
if our objects

do have something to do
with crossing over,

then where the hell
is Janet's?

Again, Rhonda,
I do not know,

but maybe once we finish
with the notebook,

you can lead
the next investigation, okay?

Heyo, Chief, I think
I found something here.

Um, okay,
Janet mentioned "kegs,"

like, 15 times in this thing.

I'm just thinking
maybe in addition

to being Mr. Martin's
secret partner or whatever,

she was also, like,
like a secret brew master.

You know, like
making prison hooch.

That's not kegs,
that's keys.

No, it says...
Oh, no, it does say keys. Okay.

Right, okay,
so let's keep cracking.

[music]

[chuckles]

Ah... Knock much?

I just found out
that you have a brother.

I do.

Yeah, we just met, actually,
uh, in the shower.

-What?
-[Claire] I thought it was you

and you were taking forever,

and I'm sick
of smelling like bonfire,

so I just opened the door
to tell you to hurry up,

-but, instead, it was...
-[Diego] Hey, sis.

You wanna
warn me the next time

you're having one
of your little slumber parties?

First off,
slumber parties are for kids.

Second, why are you back?

Laundry. Machines at my dorm
are busted

'cause some idiot decided to pee

in the part
where the bleach went.

Ew.

Sorry. College kids are animals.

Which you are one.

Touché. Uh, I'm Diego.

Nice to meet you again.

Claire.

Uh, sorry again.

Nope. Hm-hmm. Everybody needs
to stop talking

and put on clothes, now.

[music]

Will that be cash
or card today?

Cash.

[ominous music]

I'll be right back.

No!
No, no, no!

No, no, no, no!

No! [breathing heavily]

Boiler room, cafeteria,
auto shop,

now it's the greenhouse.

Where the other ghosts died,
right.

And you can see them too?

Nope, just Maddie.

Is she here right now?

Don't know.
It's not a scar.

I feel like I should
say something to Maddie.

Just because now that I know,
it feels weird

not to, like,
give her a message or something.

There are so many more
important things

we have to figure out
right now.

Wait, you don't want me
to talk to her?

Oh, shit, does she not wanna
talk to me?

She hates me,
she hates me now,

which I would too, but...

[whispering]
She doesn't hate you, okay?

Sorry, why are we whispering?

Because she could be listening.

We can't see her.
She can see us

anywhere she wants.

The last thing
I want

is to deliver the message
that we lost Janet, okay?

-So...
-So, so no messages.

For the love of God,
no more questions either.

[Leader] Welcome to the regular
12:00 PM Split River meeting.

We're glad you're all here.

This is an open meeting,

and everyone is welcome,
especially newcomers.

[clapping]

Hello, everybody.
My name is Tyler,

-and I'm an alcoholic.
-[Group] Hello, Tyler!

[percussive music]

Stop. Wait.

Um. Is, is everything cool?

Sorry, I thought...
My mistake.

Hey, wait.
I know you.

She looks familiar, right?

Oh, shit, yeah.

You are in
our psych seminar, right?

Totally. God,
what a sleeper, huh?

[Erica] Did you need a ride?

We're headed back
to campus right now, actually.

Just had to stock up.

That's not necessary.
Thank you.

[Erica] Gretchen, get this.

She picks up the cinnamon
and puts it to the side,

and I'm like,
"Cinnamon's healthy.

-You put it in your coffee."
-It has health benefits.

Then she looked at me
and I looked at her,

and I was like, "You know what?"

[Gretchen] We're here.

I know. Processed food,
the worst.

But beats a hangover tomorrow.

Oh, shit, you're
totally invited, by the way.

It starts right after the game.

Unless you're not
feeling up to it.

I don't know if I'd wanna party
if I had all my shit stolen.

Did you wanna use a phone?

Yours was stolen too, right?

Or we could help you call
campus security.

Oh, no.

Uh, you don't need
to do that.

They took your ID
and your meal card

and everything too, right?

Here, we'll call them.
Let me just see.

I said no.

I mean, no, thank you.

I'll find my way.

[indistinct chatter]

[music swells]

Come on, Simon,
where are you?

What are you doing
in my locker?

Sandra. Hi, sorry, I...

I didn't realize
that that was your meeting.

I only just started
recently going again,

so, I mean, I could
find a new one if...

No. It's fine. Really.

Are you sure?
'Cause you kind of...

You ran out of there,
I thought maybe

it might have something
to do with, with me.

Well, it doesn't.

I know that you didn't have
anything to do

with what happened.
Okay?

Hey, listen, I, um,
I heard about

your speech that you made
for when Maddie won the award.

And, uh,
well, I nominated her

for that, actually, 'cause she,
I mean, she was just...

Anyway, I'm sorry
I wasn't there.

I'm not.
I was a mess,

but at least I started
going to meetings again

after that night.

Right.

Anyway, I should
get going.

I have to get
to the Pokegama River.

-It's a long drive.
-Okay. The river, huh?

Why?

They found a body.

What?

Fishermen found a body,

but they haven't identified
who it is yet.

Jesus, Sandra. Uh...

I really do have to go.

Okay, wait, don't...

Don't do this alone.

[indistinct chatter]

[Woman on PA]
Freddie to the main office.

Freddie to the main office
please.

Where are the rest
of the plastics?

No idea. I just quit

the cheerleading squad,
actually.

For real?
Was your body swapped?

This coming from someone

who actually believes these
kinds of things are possible.

I didn't say that.

Well, would it be
so crazy

if what Simon is saying
is somehow true?

Oh, yes.

-Ghosting me again? Really?
-No.

No, I'm not ghosting.

There's just nothing
to report.

Uh-huh? And was Nicole
putting licorice in my locker

some kind
of consolation prize?

Nicole? Why would Nicole
put licorice in your...

Simon, come on, you have to have
something to report.

Didn't you go
to the farmhouse last night?

Yes. With Xavier, actually,

which is the silver lining
because he's on board.

That's good news.

And the bad news?

I know I'm just a recent
addition to the freak squad,

but this is, like,
legit freaky.

Yeah, I know.
Maybe you're right.

[message notification]

Holy shit.

Diego thinks he saw Ja...
Maddie.

[Maddie] Was Janet
not at the farmhouse?

Yeah, she was
at the farmhouse,

but she,
she burned it down.

What?

[message notification]
Why would she do that?

-Uh...
-[Nicole] Simon.

[Simon]
See, the thing is, um...

I actually have a new lead.

So I'm gonna go
take care of that.

Don't even worry about it
because I'm all over it, okay?

Let me see.

Any updates?

Yeah. My body-snatcher

just added arson
to her rap sheet or whatever

right after hit-and-run
and grand theft auto,

so I'll be lucky if my body
is not behind bars tomorrow.

Hi, guys, have you seen
this girl?

Name's Maddie.

Hey, bro, how you doing?
You know this girl at all?

He didn't even look.

So when we did
this exact same thing

at the homecoming game
with the missing Maddie flyers,

you knew where Maddie was
the entire time.

Also a yes.

See, that's crazy.

[Simon] Hey, guys, uh,
have you seen this girl?

And at the dance
with Claire,

Operation Claire,
was Maddie a part of that?

Xavier, it was
her idea, okay?

[message notification]

[music]

[Nicole] Hey,
have you seen this girl?

What?

You got anything?

Uh, no, I was just trying
to reach Diego.

-But he must be in class.
-Yeah, he is.

Excuse me.

How would you know that?

I checked his Insta.

Who posts a selfie
in a lecture hall anyway?

Probably proud
he was still awake.

Excuse me, do you have...

There were a lot of sleeping
students in the background.

Wait. That's actually
not a bad idea.

Hi, have you seen
my friend?

So now you don't need us
to decode the notebook anymore?

No, I do, it's just taking
way too long.

Janet is out there
literally starting fires,

so what I need is for you guys
to think back.

I'll get my tape.

Uh, Quinn, this one's not really
for your murder board just yet.

I just wanna know
what these guys remember.

It's kind of before your time.

Copy that.

Oh. I'll take notes.

Okay, look, I know you guys

think you don't
remember anything,

but there had to be
some kind of clue

that things went south
between them.

Please just think.

[Simon] Nicole,
what the hell?

Your brother could've told us
how freaking big this campus is.

Took us, like, an hour to find
our way out of the library.

Okay, where could she be?

She must be hungry
or tired by now.

No, there's nothing
in the dining halls

and the only sleeping students
we spotted

actually go here.

Claire. Have you found anything?

She's been glued to that thing
for the last half-hour.

Claire, if that's
my brother you're texting,

your ass is on the curb.

Okay, I am not texting.
I'm looking for Maddie too.

See?

Okay, why would
a known fugitive

post a picture
of themself?

She wouldn't,
but somebody else might.

Just look around.

Literally everyone
is posting something.

Maybe they caught Maddie
in the background.

Boom. I got her.

Hey, guys...

I think Janet's
at a college party.

We passed that house earlier.

It's this way.
Okay, follow me.

[music]

See, girls
always get in for free.

We get it, Claire.
It's not your first rodeo.

We'll check this way.

Once we find her,
what's the plan exactly?

How do we make her
come with us?

I don't know, man.
Look, let's just split up, okay?

What? Why?

'Cause I'm sick of playing
fucking 20 ghost questions.

You know, I've already found
Janet. Twice, actually.

Yeah, you lost her twice.

I'm just trying
to be helpful.

What the fuck?
Who did that?

What are you guys?
Freshmen?

Yeah, I'm sorry.
That was my bad.

We can get you a refill on that.

Let's get two more drinks.
Right this way.

Sorry, cherry pop,
we got nothing.

Yeah, I know the feeling.

But if I've learned anything

from investigating
what happened to me,

it's that the clues
are always there.

So what happened
on Janet's last day?

I mean,
there was the party.

-[Maddie] Party?
-Yeah.

What? Like a goodbye type thing?

No, actually, it was
her sweet 17th.

Mr. Martin was worried about
Janet's mood at the time.

So he suggested
that we cheer her up.

Janet had never seen
her 17th

and none of us had ever seen
a sock hop before.

Plus, it was COVID,
so the school was Siberia.

[Martin] Do you know why
it was called that, Charley?

A sock hop?

Uh, honestly,
I just kind of assumed

it was like an outdated
'50s euphemism for sex.

No, it's because you have to
take off your shoes

to not ruin the floor.

Oh, well,
that's surprisingly sweet

or should I say swell.

Okay, let's...

Hey, that's the spirit,
Charley, yeah, get in it.

[Wally] All right,
Mr. M's got moves.

Oh, Jesus,
he even dances square.

Rhonda as Rizzo.
I think I've died again.

And, Wally,
very sharp.

Yeah, well,
thank you, Charley.

You know, honestly, I think I
can get used to this, for real.

Also, I should say

that the last musical
pre-COVID was Grease,

so we had plenty
of costumes to pick through.

For better or worse.

Thanks, you two. Um, just,
yes, put those over there.

-[Wally] Cool.
-Um, Charley.

Can you show them
where the birthday banner is

and the rest
of the streamers are?

[Maddie] Charley, what does this
have to do with Janet?

[Charley] Relax,
I'm getting there.

['50s ballad music playing]

Okay,
it was right after this.

I was the first one to show up
with the banner.

And that's when I noticed
the music had changed.

♪ I look in my mirror ♪

[Charley] They were dancing.

First, I thought it was,
like, sweet, you know,

and, like, maybe it was
nostalgia or something,

but then Janet said...

We're still gonna tell them
tonight, right?

You promised.

[Maddie] So they were romantic?

Did you guys see anything
romantic going on between them?

Not between them.

[Maddie] Sorry, what?

[Wally] Look,
you have to understand

it was a very strange time
to be partying.

I mean, like Charley said,
the school was a ghost town

and that may sound
like no big whoop,

but it was to me.

I didn't realize
how lonely I'd be

without the living people there.

Wally, just tell us
what happened.

Right, okay, so after we were
done dancing,

Mr. Martin started
setting up for...

Limbo! Everybody, line up!

Come on, let's go.
Let's go.

[Wally] And I was all for it.

You know I can't walk away
from a physical challenge,

but, that night,
Janet really wanted to talk.

[Janet] Can I speak to you
for a second in private?

Yeah.

One second.

And I don't know what about,

but I could tell
she was nervous.

There's been something
I've been wanting to tell you.

Good job.
All right. Good job.

I have been holding
something back.

And I was hoping
maybe tonight

my gift might reveal
the, uh, truth.

Sorry, I... I don't know why
this is so hard.

I guess
what I'm trying to say...

Hey, hey, hey, Janet.
It's okay.

I know.

You do?

I do.

Happy birthday.

[Group] Ugh, Wally!

I know, I know, I know,

but, look, she was
talking about a gift.

And she seemed
so nervous,

I thought that maybe
that's what she wanted

for her birthday.

[Quinn] You thought
that was a gift?

I mean, she did cross over
right after that, so...

Except, don't we know
she didn't.

[Wally]
Yeah, thank you, Quinn.

That's exactly why I didn't
wanna say anything so exposed.

The objects.

How about you, Rhonda?

Did you see anything
that night?

If you saw something, anything,
please, I need to know.

Rhonda, come on,
you clearly know something.

Just tell us now.

Wow, enough with
the gestapo approach, all right?

Honestly, you were playing
double agent to us all,

-like, a week ago.
-That's true.

And you only just told us

that you told Mr. Martin
that Simon and I could talk.

Wait. What? Rhonda?

Okay, sure,
but only because I was trying

to get to the truth.

Which is what
I'm trying to do now.

We said no more secrets,
no more lies.

You know what?
I don't need this.

Rhonda, there's a wrecking ball
named Janet

running around in my body
and you've been so sure

about what
she hasn't been doing,

so if you know what she was,
the please just...

She fought with him! Okay?

Is that
what you wanna hear?

She wasn't romantic with him
or with you, Wally.

She was betrayed.

Please, Rhonda,
tell us what happened.

[Group] ♪ Happy birthday
to you ♪

[Wally] Whoo!
Yeah, get it!

[Rhonda] It was right
after her cake.

She didn't seem thrilled
to be there,

but our gifts
seemed to help.

Oh. How did you know?

Well, you talk
about science a lot.

-And you know we listen.
-A lot.

Thank you.

[gasps]
That's for you.

Oh, I wonder
what it is.

It's a hula hoop.

-Spoiler alert.
-Thanks, Rhonda.

These were a big thing
when I was a little girl,

so it means a lot.

Also, they're
an excellent example

of centripetal force

and friction
working hand-in-hand.

Oh. Great.

Let's see
what's next.

Okay, that one's mine.

Yeah, it's a little wet.

Goodness, that one's dripping.
It's dripping.

Yeah, that one...

It was just from your time.

I thought maybe you would
like a root beer float.

Reminds you of malt shops
and soda fountains and whatnot.

It's warm.

Well, I wrapped it,
like, three hours ago.

-[Janet] It's delicious.
-Well, thanks.

Okay. Me next.

[Rhonda] It wasn't until Janet
opened Mr. Martin's gift

that something really turned.

Something was wrong.

Thanks, everyone.

Uh. Excuse me.

[Rhonda] I could tell
something was up.

So I waited
until things wound down.

[indistinct arguing]

[Rhonda]
I couldn't hear everything,

but Janet was upset
about the gift.

About all the gifts,
it seemed.

I didn't mean
to upset you, Janet.

Then why would you give it
to me?

Because it's yours.

I only meant it as a symbol,
right,

that we continue the work,
our work!

You know it's not
what I wanted.

[Martin] We have to think
about timing.

You can't... Look, okay, look.

-Let's take a breath. You're...
-I'm not taking a breath.

No more experiments.
You promised.

[Martin] I know and I'm sorry
for that, but I...

[Janet] You know what?
I'll just do it myself.

-I'll give them all back.
-No, Janet, please...

I'll do it right now,
in fact.

Janet!

Get your hands off me!

You don't know
what I'm capable of.

[Maddie] Did Janet
really say that?

-Holy shit.
-That's intense.

And now she's out there,
destroying my life.

That's why he locked her up.

Because she was
the real monster.

No, that's not it.

Then what? What happened?

She wasn't the monster.
She was standing up to one.

I don't understand.

Look, they may
have been partners,

but the power
was always his.

And she defied him.

So he silenced her,
and then...

When I saw his hands on her,
it was like...

like Mr. Manfredo's
were on me too.

All over again.

Only she was strong.

Don't you see?

She did in death
what I could never do.

And then she crossed over,

so I kept it to myself

because I'm never gonna
get that chance.

But she didn't cross over.

Yeah, and by the time
I found that out,

you guys were already pissed
at me

for keeping stuff
from you.

Look, I didn't realize
what their fight was about

until I heard Charley
and Wally's stories tonight.

Charley, you heard Janet say
she wanted to tell us something.

Yeah, but she
said that to me too.

Right, and then
I heard them fighting

about Mr. Martin's
broken promise.

They weren't fighting
about our gifts.

It was our objects.

That's what Janet wanted
to give back,

because what Janet really wanted
as her gift was to tell us...

Was to tell us the truth.

[Rhonda] That's why
Mr. Martin locked her up.

He didn't want to come clean

about everything
they've been up to.

Did he really say that?

No. I couldn't watch anymore
after that.

I walked away.

And now I have to live
with that too.

You wanted a trip
down trauma lane?

You got it.

Thanks a lot.

I was just leaving.

Wait. Is that my jacket?

-[Erica] Gretchen.
-Stop her!

She's stealing our shit.

-[Janet] Don't touch me.
-[Erica] Get it off her!

I said get your hands
off of me!

So you can steal from us
again?

Oh, that's how
it's gonna be, huh?

What are you gonna do?
Fight us?

You have no idea
what I'm capable of.

[police siren beeping]

Oh, shit, you guys!
Security's downstairs!

Everyone's gotta go now!

[Nicole] Maddie.

Maddie!

[Diego] Welp, party's over.

Probably should bounce
before you get written up.

[Claire] Shit.
We're never gonna find Maddie.

-Watch your step.
-Thanks.

Why'd she run away, anyways?

Honestly, I think
it was because of me.

Then why'd you run away?

I mean, your parents
must be worried.

That'd be news to me.

It's a weird thing to realize

that you're completely
on your own.

I mean, welcome to college.

It's scary, but sometimes
you gotta be on your own

to figure out
who you are. Right?

Sorry, that was
not very helpful.

[both chuckle]

No, it was, actually.

[music]

Maddie. Maddie.

Hey.

Okay, um, you're not
in any trouble.

We didn't tell the cops
about the truck

and Xavier's fine.

You're safe.

You can come home.

[Nicole] Claire.

Where are you?

[Diego] What the hell
happened to him?

I kinda party-fouled
some asshole in there

and Simon here took
the brunt of it for us.

Didn't you, buddy?

[Simon] Did you find her?

Should we maybe go?

-Sandra.
-Mm. Oh.

Sorry. Um,
the last time

I was at a river like this

was when Dave drowned.

Oh, shit.
I'm so sorry.

[Sandra] It's fine,
honestly.

At least, then,
I knew it happened.

But now...

[Derek] How often
do you do this?

[Sandra] The alerts?

Whenever I get them,
I guess.

I was at the morgue
this morning.

The morgue?

[Sandra] Yeah,
it wasn't her either.

I set the alerts up

back when Maddie first became
a missing person.

And, I guess, now
it's all I really have.

I think I thought,
if I found her body,

that it would give me
some kind of closure.

This doesn't feel like closure.
This is...

This is more like torture.

Look, I know
that we just...

I mean, who the hell am I
to judge, right, but, um...

I do know

that returning to your pain
over and over

can be just as addictive
as any thing else.

[Woman] One second, dear.

[radio plays music]

[Wally] We can't find Rhonda.

[Charley] I don't think
she wants to be found.

If anyone
was the monster tonight,

I guess it was me. Huh?

I pushed her too hard.

Uh, you know, I think

maybe there are just some places

that are still too painful
to go.

[Wally] But you needed answers,
Maddie,

and they may not be
in those notebooks.

Also, now that we know
kegs aren't keys,

there's probably plenty
of other words

that Wally messed up.

Woah, woah,
take it easy.

[music]

Wait, Charley.
Keys, the keys.

Holy shit, you guys, what if
the objects are the keys?

Go on.

Rhonda said Mr. Martin gave
Janet that watch.

But I've seen that watch before.

Mr. Martin was holding it
the day he disappeared.

And when he gave it to Janet,
she disappeared too.

Rhonda asked earlier
about Janet's object.

What if that's it?

Her key.
Okay, but where does it go?

Yeah, and where'd they
disappear to?

Hello, Rhonda.

Help! Help! Somebody help!

Help!

[Rhonda screaming]

What's this?

Berkeley?

You're leaving me?

[Rhonda screams]

[heavy breathing]

[ominous music swells]

[electrical humming and buzzing]

[Nicole] Hey.

Are you okay?

It's not your fault.
No one could've convinced her.

Yeah. I know,
I'm just...

I'm tired.

[cellphone vibrating]

Ugh, it's my Dad.
I gotta get this.

Totally.

And then you could
drive us home.

[Nicole] Simon, listen,
I, um,

I saw Maddie too.

-[Xavier] Hey, Dad.
-At the party.

Wait, why, why...
When was this?

It was right before
security came.

But the girl
I was looking at,

she was someone else.

This is what
I've been trying to tell you.

No, I know, I know,

but what does this mean?

That this Janet thing is real?
That fucking ghosts are real?

It means
she got your licorice.

Okay. Okay. Yeah. Bye.

How am I gonna tell her

that we lost Janet?

Again.

Fuck!

We tell her.

Together.

Unless you still don't want
my help.

Do you?

Sorry. I'm sorry.

Was that
another annoying question?

Thank you.

I do.

And it feels new to me.

Not doing this alone.

[light chuckle]

You know, whatever message
that you wanna give

to Maddie,
I'm happy to help too.

Thank you.

Where the hell
is Janet now?

♪ Mama used to sing...

Are you sure you don't want me
to drive you to your car?

Ah, parking lot's
four blocks from here.

I could use the steps.

All right, well,
thanks for dinner

and for coming with me.

It's nice to not feel...

Alone.

-Good night, Derek.
-Good night, Sandra.
