[Simon] Previously onSchool Spirits...

I don't think Maddie slept in her bed last night

-and I don't know where she is. -I'll look for her.

Oh, you're bleeding.

I'd sooner die again than set foot in that school.

Didn't Simon tell you that Dawn crossed over?

-I promised I'd give her proof. -What?

If you want Janet back here,

you're gonna have to dig up something.

Maybe they're all connected.

It's a path.

This is the way into Dawn's scar.

[Wally] I wish you would be stuck with me here forever.

Found ya.

[insects chirping]

[Simon] Janet?

[ominous music]

[Simon] Janet!

Shit.

Janet!

-What's going on? -I can't find her.

-Oh no! Janet! -Janet!

-Where the hell is she? -If I knew that,

I wouldn't be yelling to the fucking dark.

Janet!

-Janet! -Janet!

Janet!

[Simon] Janet!

How did they know your name?

[Simon] Janet!

What have you told them?

[Nicole] Janet!

You know you can't trust them, Janet.

You wouldn't have gotten in this boat with me if you did.

Wait, so Maddie didn't run away. It was just her body?

Yeah.

[Diego] Claire, what you're telling me is insane.

Okay, we do not have time for this, please.

I held up my end of the deal. Now I need you to drive.

I'll drive, but I got some questions for the road.

[car starts]

[eerie music] [insects chirping]

Smile, Janet.

We did it.

I know that this isn't exactly

the version of getting out that we had imagined,

but, but we now have a second chance at life.

The future you always wanted.

But this isn't my, my body.

This isn't...my life.

But, but it can be. It will be.

You should go.

You don't need me to escape.

Alone?

It's been you and me for 66 years,

trying to figure out how to cross over.

We couldn't.

But...this? This.

Maybe this is even better.

Look, you know, I always said

we need more time.

Well, now we have it.

In a way it counts.

You know, think of the difference we could make!

We deserve this!

Dawn crossed over.

She figured it out.

It's not about that anymore, and, and even if it were,

do you even know where you'd be crossing over to?

Don't say that.

I saved you from making bad decisions in the past

and I'm gonna keep helping you do that.

-You're leaving. -No!

[intensifying music]

[Janet gasps]

You don't forget, Janet! You owe me!

No, no!

There were so many flowers. You wouldn't have believed it.

It really was that beautiful, huh?

Yeah. It wasn't scary.

It was...I don't know. Peaceful.

Could it really be that simple?

You just walk through a door with an exit sign above it?

I mean, I haven't seen a door like that

in any of the other scars. Have you?

I definitely didn't see one in mine.

But maybe there's a way to make it,

I don't know, appear.

[clacking]

Hey.

I'm sorry that I missed your reunion.

Oh, it's fine. If I'm gonna take you on a date,

I definitely want it to be at a spot

that's much nicer than that, so...

Like this.

[giggles]

So that's what this was all about?

Taking me on a date?

I just figured it couldn't hurt for you

to get away for a couple hours, you know,

take your mind off everything.

Did you ever go to any of these places in real life?

No.

I did go to Minnesota one time for an away game.

It makes me sad

that we couldn't have gone to any of these places together.

What do you mean?

We're here right now.

[music]

[music stops]

Watching people pretend to sleep

is considered socially unacceptable behavior, you know.

What's wrong?

Why are you looking at me like that?

I found something.

It's bad.

It's really bad.

What, what, what happened?

When, when my mellophone didn't get me into my scar,

I thought it was worth it to keep trying to find my key.

You found it?

It's my field marker.

I completely forgot about it.

I had left it in my uniform jacket.

Quinn, did you go inside?

[tense music]

Are you okay?

Um...

It was...

It was predictably horrible.

I guess I don't know what I was expecting, but...

not that.

Do you wanna talk about it?

[melancholy music]

The thing is, it wasn't just the scar.

I found this inside the bus.

That.

And it's also kind of hard not to think of

You know...

I can make pancakes for you when the sun comes up.

-You like pancakes? -Yeah.

Well, I do too. I'm a big fan.

I can make you pancakes every morning.

I can make pancakes for you forever.

-Wally. -I know.

I know.

I know this is probably selfish, but...

I just wanna say it one time, please.

Can I just say it one time, Maddie?

I want you to stay.

I really wish you would stay.

In this world, can I have blueberries in my pancakes too?

I'm more of a banana guy myself, but...

you're the boss.

Oh, god!

I'm gonna need you to peel yourselves off each other

and come down to the library stat.

What are we looking at?

Remember the missing page from Janet's journal?

Turns out our sweet old Janet had a sadistic streak.

She was gonna lock us up, torture us

as an experiment. That was their endgame.

So, what?

You found this in the bus stop scar?

Inside the bus, yeah.

Uh, they must've hid it in there thinking

me and the band would never get in, never find it.

She wanted to use us to get her and Mr. Martin out.

But we stayed here, caged inside a cage.

-For her own gain. -And Mr. Martin's.

-She's a monster. -Yeah.

And if you two swap bodies, then that means that

we're gonna be stuck here with that monster for eternity.

Fuck.

Janet!

"Let's give her a last few moments to be alive."

Simon, I swear to god...

I don't need you making me feel any worse, okay?

I don't know, I was trying to be a decent human being.

Janet!

Yeah, let's keep yelling! We haven't done that enough!

Whoa, okay, chill out, aggro!

Yeah, chill, Xavier, thank you, Nicole.

I'm not on your side either.

And I bet you're glad I brought my taser now, right?

[thud]

[ominous music]

Janet?

Take me to the school.

Now.

[pants]

[insects chirping]

This is insane, right?

Which part?

Maddie might get her body back.

Yeah.

That's a sentence I never thought I'd hear.

You know, I...

kind of wish I could still write to Shredhead99

and tell him--well, you-- everything that's happened.

Me too.

What was that fisherman thing about?

In your last message, you said you saw...

-I saw Maddie's dad. -What?

At the hospital when I flatlined.

I didn't put it together until

I saw his picture at Maddie's house,

but, I mean, it was definitely him.

I messaged you 'cause I, I didn't really...

You can't tell Maddie about this.

Why?

Well, if we want her to come back to us,

you'll just be giving her more of a reason to wanna stay there,

wherever she is.

Nicole, I don't think it's that simple.

No, please don't bring it up.

You'll just freak her out.

Did he ask about Maddie?

No.

He just asked me if I was staying.

What did you say? Did you want to?

Good.

For the record...

I'm glad it was you too.

[ominous music]

No way I'm taking out the trash.

The bugs out there are the size of my head.

[bell ringing] [train whistle]

Janet?

What were you doing out there on the water?

Nothing.

Is that blood?

Are you hurt?

I'm not just gonna leave you guys here

with someone who wants to lock you all up.

Isn't the whole point of getting her back here

so that we can get you back into your body?

Yeah, we don't even know how that works.

We don't even know if we can do it.

We're going to figure it out. Okay? We will deal with Janet.

If the opportunity presents itself

for you to get back into your body,

you have to take it.

Right, Wally?

[PA beep, Simon tapping mic]

[Simon] Hello? Hey, uh, Maddie,

you're gonna wanna come to the cafeteria.

Now.

[suspenseful music] [clock ticking]

[tense, eerie music]

[tense, suspenseful music]

Hi.

Welcome back.

Oh.

You're all here.

How can she see us?

I guess technically she's still a ghost.

She can also hear you.

You can speak to me directly.

What happened to her?

Why is there blood on her hand?

She won't say.

You have some explaining to do.

[insects chirping]

[dramatic sting] [muffled scream]

Let's start with this.

I was hoping you'd never find that.

[Rhonda] God, I can't believe I actually ever defended you.

It turns out you've been lying to us all along.

Hell, you even lied about how you died.

Why did you lie about your death, Janet?

We didn't want anyone to know.

Know what?

That it was me.

I started the fire.

What?

The fire that burned down the chemistry room?

I'm the reason why we are both trapped here.

I killed Mr. Martin.

[tense music]

Maybe twice.

[Janet's voice] It was an accident, the fire.

At first, I was overwhelmed with guilt.

But Mr. Martin was kind and forgiving.

So we tried to make the best of all the new time

we had in our afterlives.

Mr. Martin was the first to discover our hidden space.

He was hesitant to show me,

but he took me in, and it was terrifying.

We wanted to understand what it meant, why it was there.

We wanted answers.

But for five years,

we couldn't make sense of any of it.

-Everything all right? -Fine.

[Janet] So we just kept ourselves busy

the best we could.

Oh, jeez, Janet, will you get the lights, please?

[ominous humming] [electrical zapping]

[Janet] And the feeling of contentment and safety,

it all ended that day.

Did you feel that?

[Janet] We suddenly weren't alone anymore.

[somber music]

[Janet] It was you, Rhonda.

And you looked so...scared.

And I just, I wanted to help.

Are you okay?

[shakily] Who are you?

What's happening?

Welcome.

To the...

Split River High afterlife.

I'm, uh...

I'm, I'm afraid you've died.

[Janet] I'm sure this is quite overwhelming.

But it does get easier.

We're dead, too.

We...

I am Everett Martin, a teacher here.

-And this is Janet. -Hi.

You see, I arrived here first.

And Janet joined me,

uh, a couple years later.

What happened to you?

S-she...she had a bad fall down a flight of stairs.

Didn't you, Janet?

Mm-hmm.

He lied to protect me. And I allowed it

because a weight had been lifted.

You're not alone.

We take care of each other here.

You don't need to see this. Let's go.

I'm certain it feels like everything's changed.

But as you'll see, part of the comfort and the curse

is that nothing's changed.

Here, come along this way.

It's, it's only natural that you'll need some adjusting time.

[eerie music]

[Wally] So then you just started stealing our keys

from under our dead bodies?

We didn't know they were keys until that moment.

When we stumbled upon our personal hell,

we had no idea what triggered it.

And then we saw Rhonda's letter,

and something just snapped into place.

We came to the conclusion that Mr. Martin and I

must have a shared key.

His wristwatch. He was holding it when he died.

So, like our shared key,

we kept sharing the lie about our death.

He was protecting me.

So all those years, in that circle together,

you, you couldn't trust us

with all of this, with, with the truth?

Mr. Martin convinced me to keep it all a secret.

The keys, how we died, everything.

What other secrets are you keeping?

What the hell?

Where is everyone?

Simon?

Xavier?

Nicole?

[tense music]

This is bad.

I'll try calling her again.

Yeah, good luck with that.

Xavier? Simon?

[whispers] Come on...

Nicole? Simon?

[dramatic sting]

-Jesus! -[gasps]

Oh, Nicole!

I can't find him.

Who, Simon?

No, no, Simon went to take Janet back to the school.

And then Xavier went to take out the trash

-and now he's gone. -Shit.

Nicole, I, I saw Anderson in the parking lot

-when we stopped for beer. -What?

-He had to be heading up here. -Fuck, fuck, fuck.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Freaking out is not gonna help anyone, okay?

We just need to find Xavier and get out of here.

What if something's already happened to him?

Like, what if he's out there--

There's no way that Anderson beat us here, okay?

I'm sure Xavier's fine.

We've just gotta find him first.

We're good. Let's go.

[screams]

[screams]

Okay, what about group?

Was there even a point of sharing all our personal shit?

What?

It was never a support group.

It was a control group.

That was just part of the experiment too?

As the years went on, more students died

and more rooms appeared, but there were variables.

[sobs]

[Janet] Things we couldn't control.

[Dawn] You okay?

Of course, I'm fine. Dawn, thank you.

[Dawn] Was it really bad?

I saw you go in.

I've seen you go in a bunch of times.

I finally went into my room, too.

Pretty freaky how it gets everything so right.

Even down to the smell of the coffee.

How did you--

People never think I'm paying attention,

but I really am.

I saw the lights going bonzo and wanted to figure out why.

Why is that, you think?

What?

The electricity?

Why does it go bonzo

whenever someone's inside one of those creepy rooms?

-You really went in it? -Mm-hmm.

Weren't you scared?

I guess.

But high school is pretty scary too.

So I always think about what my mom used to tell me

whenever I had to do something scary in school,

like public speaking...

or badminton.

She said,

"Just close your eyes and pretend

you're in a field of flowers."

I always picture marigolds, personally.

[bright, gentle music]

That conversation led me to this, this theory,

as well as mistakes.

What, what mistakes?

Pain is power.

What she said about electricity, the lights.

I realized that the rooms, the scars,

they were fueled by trauma.

That's what makes them exist.

That's what makes those objects stay and not reset.

How the hell did you go from flashing lights and clay pots

to locking up all of your friends

in a Nightmare on Elm Street?

[tense, pulsating music] [insects chirping]

[door slams shut]

[Diego] Xavier!

[Nicole] Xavier!

[intensifying music]

[Nicole] Xavier!

-[Diego] Xavier! -[Nicole] Xavier!

[Claire] Xavier!

[Nicole] Xavier!

Guys, I, I fucked up. I should've gone with him.

I'm sure he's fine.

[screaming in distance]

What was that?

Xavier!

There!

I think it's coming from out there!

[Xavier screaming]

How the fuck did he get out there?

Go!

-Me? -You're on the swim team!

[tense, pulsating music]

Okay.

When do we get to the part

where she says something even remotely meaningful?

Chill out, Rhonda, okay?

We're all trying to get to the truth.

Don't snap at me.

I'm not the reason we're sitting around,

listening to a bunch of half-hearted excuses.

[Wally] Okay, what have you done--

[Charley] Guys! Would you shut up?!

You said earlier you wanted to find a way out for everyone.

If that's true, then why did you keep it a secret?

[Yuri] She had to.

Whose side are you on?

Once a subject knows it's being observed,

it changes its behavior.

Is that a real thing?

It's the Hawthorne effect.

How do you know that?

I've read about it, and honestly,

it sounds like Mr. Martin was using it on her

as much as she was using it on you.

[Rhonda] But none of this explains your evil plan.

How did it go sour so fast?

Another variable.

So, who wants to share first?

[cheerful Christmas music]

Sure! I will.

Well, uh, usually we would go to church for Christmas Eve,

and then we would go to my grandmother's

for oyster stew.

Ew.

-It's an acquired taste. -What a lovely memory.

Do we really have to do this, Mr. M?

I mean, it's the same song and dance every year.

We just talk about traditions

and then we steal stale cookies from the teacher's lounge

and then we just go off

and we feel miserable about ourselves.

Why miserable?

Isn't it nice being able to celebrate together?

All it does is remind us where we aren'ttonight.

Home, with our families.

If our families are even still around.

Well, stale though they may be, I am off to get the cookies.

Janet, would you like to help me?

-Sure. -Okay.

Oh, and uh, merry Christmas to you, Charley.

Okay.

He gave me the hat.

They're right, you know.

This tradition does make everyone sad.

Feelings are useful, Janet. Even the negative ones.

You should know that more than anyone.

You read it? Does it make sense?

It's a fascinating hypothesis.

Trauma is energy.

It's a bit oversimplified,

but it does have a nice ring to it.

♪ Good tidings we bring ♪

♪ To you and your kin... ♪

We know that going into these rooms

creates an energetic surge.

And we've been hypothesizing for years

that the fence around this school

that keeps us from leaving

is a sort of electromagnetic barrier.

So, if one enters these strange spaces,

aggravates that energy,

maybe if one activates all of those spaces

all at the same time,

creating an unbelievable amount of power--

We could overwhelm the hypothetical system,

get beyond the barrier, past the fence.

Maybe even make it disappear.

This is brilliant work, Janet.

It's truly very clever.

So, now all we have to do is figure out

how to get them all in there at once.

-What do you mean? -Your plan.

Oh no, Mr. Martin, it's not a plan.

It's purely theoretical.

Well, it is now.

But isn't that how all experiments begin?

We can't just lock them in there.

That would be torture.

We're scientists, Janet.

Do you think Jonas Salk would've eradicated polio

if he stopped and considered the costs of discovery?

But we live with these people. We celebrate holidays with them.

You just told them that you, you are grateful to them--

Controlled experiments lead to greater good.

And maybe the answer to crossing over

is outside this building.

If we could get beyond the school grounds,

we, we could...

we could go back to our families.

We could sit at their holiday gatherings.

They wouldn't see us.

But we could see them.

And, and maybe find the clues to resolve

whatever's holding us from moving on to the next plane,

from crossing over.

Mr. Martin--

Didn't I promise you I'd get you out of here?

Hm?

What did you think was going to happen when you wrote it?

I don't know what I thought. I just...

I stopped trusting myself.

I lost myself in my partnership with Mr. Martin.

Our shared loss, our shared secret?

I never thought I could lose myself

in a person like that.

But I did.

Well, where he is going?

Wait, where did Quinn go?

[upbeat marching band music]

Quinn?

Quinn!

Hello!?

Stop it! Stop ignoring me!

You're not even looping!

So what?

I'm so confused. What are you doing?

Everything's a mess now, and it's because of me.

Quinn, this has nothing to do with you.

It does! I found that page.

I brought it to you.

Now you're turning on each other.

I basically blew you all up.

Quinn.

[insects chirping]

I've done this before, you know.

I joined the marching band...

so that I could feel...

like I was part of something...

and not feel so alone.

But pretty soon,

I was causing tension in the brass section.

And before you knew it, the woodwinds hated me,

uh, because I pointed out

that they were overpowering the xylophone.

But I had to say something because the xylophone...

And then we all died.

And I died knowing that

everybody was mad at me.

Quinn, you didn't blow up anything.

I just wanted to connect.

I didn't have that in life.

And it feels like...

I'm not gonna have it in death either.

That's why I went back to the marching band.

You don't feel anything when you're looping.

Listen to me.

You aren't alone, Quinn.

Okay? You never have to be alone again.

Look, I know that feeling

of never quite...connecting?

But somehow...

I've let you in.

So you can't just leave me now.

[gentle music] [insects chirping]

[insects chirping]

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

I brought her here, just like you asked.

We're just sitting around, talking.

What's the hold-up?

-I need to protect my friends. -Excuse me?

Your actual friends,

your living, breathing ones,

are out there trying to help you.

And they might be in danger,

and there's no way for me to communicate with them

because I'm stuck here trying to help you.

Do you not...

Do you not wanna come back?

It's not that simple.

Is this because of Wally?

What?

Is this about Wally?

[scoffs] Unbelievable. Look, Maddie.

I'm happy you found someone. I really am, but...

I miss you.

I miss our normal life.

Stupid fucking simple real life.

You don't think I miss you too?

I know how hard it's been on you,

on all of you.

But these people,

they don't have anyone else, you know?

I have to think about their futures.

Okay, what about my future?

Hartman's about to suspend me,

and I basically gave up any shot

at getting into Northwestern when I tanked that interview

because I was trying to help you.

I didn't ask you to mess up the interview.

I was there trying to stop you. You just couldn't hear me.

I would never ask you to throw away your future, Simon.

And I can't believe you'd think I would.

[Charley] Was it me or was...

it something that I said or did

Nothing.

Okay. You said you wanted to stop Mr. Martin, right?

Is that what happened the night of your birthday?

Rhonda heard you guys arguing.

You were upset when you opened his gift.

That wasn't a gift. That was a threat.

He was trying to remind me of what was at stake,

of all the years of hard work.

That night, I knew that I couldn't convince him

to abandon the plan.

But I was hoping that he would settle for

a slight change of course.

I convinced him we could start small.

Rather than put everyone in their scars at once,

what if I just went into mine for greater periods of time

more often?

[whimpers]

We told you I'd crossed over to avoid outside exposure.

Anything that could impact our results.

I'm not sure I can do this.

[Janet] But after a while,

I didn't feel like part of the experiment.

I felt like a prisoner.

-I don't wanna go! Please! -I know. I know.

[Janet] It seemed like the entire thing

was gonna be a failure...

until one moment.

Mr. Martin was certain that my stoking of the energy

hadn't impacted the fence around the school,

but it had very briefly thinned the veil

between the living and the dead inside the school.

[unnerving music]

[door slams shut]

[Janet] And there was no stopping him after that.

Are you telling us you volunteered to go in there?

I did.

At first.

But then everything changed.

Once Mr. Martin realized that it was kind of working,

I felt like there was no way out.

The only thing that was... [sniffs]

...allowing me to get through it

was knowing that it was happening to me

and not to any of you.

It was my burden. It was my idea.

And if I was in there,

it meant that you guys were safe.

And then...

And then you showed up, Maddie, and I, I...

I needed to get out.

Okay, I wasn't trying to hurt anyone!

I just needed to get out!

Give her the key, Maddie.

I'm sorry that happened to you.

I know you can't take it now, but it's here when you're ready.

So you can get into your scar once we do the swap.

You still think I have a chance at crossing over?

The only way out is through.

I wouldn't blame you if you never wanted

to go back in there again.

I was there. I know how bad it is.

The charred walls, the chaos.

And that woman, who is she?

-What woman? -[Maddie] I don't know.

She was definitely from your time.

And she kept trying to tell me something,

pointing out the watch.

No, there was never any woman, nor charred walls.

Nothing you're describing sounds familiar.

But your scar is in the fallout shelter, right?

It's where the old chemistry lab burned down?

[Rhonda] Where you died.

Yes.

That's where Mr. Martin died too.

Wait, you...you don't--

I didn't go into Janet's scar.

It was Mr. Martin's.

No way.

Maybe...

-[sobs hysterically] -You have to go.

Maybe he didn't have his wristwatch on

when he was dragging me inside.

The subject needs to have their key on them

in order for the door to open.

So if that's not your key...

-It's Mr. Martin's. -Oh my god.

So what's Janet's key?

Can it be a person?

[notification chimes]

Yes! Yes, I got bars!

[phone ringing]

-Hello? Hey. -[Xavier] Oh, thank god!

-[Xavier] Hey, it's me! -Xavier, are you okay?

I've been trying to call you all night.

Simon! Yeah, yeah, we're fine, sorta.

But listen, Anderson was here.

Are you okay?

[Xavier] He threatened us, and it's a long story,

but we lost him and he took Diego's car.

Shit!

[Xavier] Yeah, shit.

Now we're stranded in dead freakin' nowhere.

Okay, I don't think I can get you guys.

What if he comes back here?

Fuck, fuck, wait, what do you mean

-you can't come get us? -Simon!

Is Maddie back? Did it work?

No, no, not yet. Long story.

Look, I need you guys to get here

as soon as possible, okay?

I gotta tell Maddie that we lost him.

You've gotta find a way to get here.

[insects chirping]

Simon?

Maddie, we need to talk.

Listen, I'm sorry.

I'm so, so sorry.

The truth is, yes, it is about Wally.

But it's also not just about Wally.

It's about everything that's happened here.

Everything I... we've been through.

I know I've asked too much of you.

I know that.

But I need you to bring Mr. Martin back here.

He's Janet's key.

She needs him to cross over.

If we can get him back here, she'll give me my body back.

It may be too late.
