His eminence said you had quite the
turnaround.

I sure did, and as I wrote him, I'd like
to offer my services. Yes, I'll hear

you out, but I question the need for
another therapist on the panel. This

be a volunteer position.

I am so sorry.

I've been baptized.

Look.

As I wrote...

Out of gratitude.

I'm not suggesting that you would
replace Ms. Bouchard, no.

Although, she is not a believer.

Well, exactly what we need, an impartial
observer.

What I would hope to provide would be
kinship, radical empathy.

I'm in the unique position to counsel
the spiritually afflicted. I can look

in the eye.

and tell them I know exactly what you're
going through. Thank you, Sister.

Thank you.

When Adam sinned, human nature was
transformed, and thus all of mankind

inherited original sin.

You don't think they'll ask why I want
to be a priest?

This isn't a cruise director interview.
This determines whether you'll be

ordained or not. It's a given you want
to be a priest.

Or is it?

Sister.

When did you take your vows?

When I was 19. Why?

And you never wanted a family or
children?

This isn't helpful.

Sister, I don't know if I'm doing the
right thing.

To spend my whole life without a wife?

Without... Children?

To be alone?

Are you alone?

No.

I didn't want children.

But?

There was a man who fell in love with
me.

But he... Look, David, I have a gift
like you have a gift.

A door has been opened up to us, and it
comes with some responsibility.

But when you're in Plato's cave and you
break the restraints and you turn to the

light, you can't go back.

What if I want to go back?

Leland Townsend is pressuring the
Monsignor into giving him a permanent

at the church, counseling the possessed.

That'll never happen.

If you're having doubts, David, go
satisfy them.

Because the war is beginning.

So we'd be reporting to Leland? No, no,
like I said.

He would sign paperwork.

Paperwork that would fend off future
lawsuits. It comes down to liability.

Everything comes down to liability.

What happened to God? Look, this is all
happening so fast. Give me a few days

just to catch my breath, David.

Now, don't you have an ordination with
you to prepare for?

Oh, thanks for coming in, Kristen. I
wanted to call you. Sorry. No, please,

let me go first. No, no, you don't have
to. I want to, Kurt, just a therapeutic

apology.

The last time I was in here, I was...
The drugs and everything

were playing havoc with my perceptions,
and I blamed you for things that

obviously were not true, and I
apologize.

Thank you.

You do seem...

No more hallucinations.

Really? Yep, for the last four days.

What happened?

A greater respect for the placebo
effect.

Well, now that alone can't do all the
work. I know, and I want to come back

here.

Good. Next Thursday?

Yes. In the meantime, if you don't mind,
I need to refer someone to you. Refer?

A friend of mine has asked to meet you.

All right.

My wife passed away a year ago, ischemic
heart disease.

She was only 44.

I'm so sorry.

In the last month, Nathan has been
sensing a presence in his house. He

his grief has opened a door to
something.

I told Nate about your work. He wants to
see if you can help.

My work is tied to the religious stuff.

Well, look, to be honest, I'm Catholic,
but I'm not that religious.

Neither is Kristen. I don't believe in
ghosts or things that go bump in the

night, but there's something going on in
my house.

Something I've seen.

What?

A shape.

A shadow of a man.

I caught glimpses of it in a mirror.

behind me, or a window reflection.

This went on for weeks.

And then all of a sudden, it seemed like
it wasn't interested in me anymore.

I started seeing it near my son, Elijah.

It's going after him now.

What do you mean, going after him?

There was an accident.

Elijah broke his arm. It wasn't an
accident.

There's something in my house.

And this is targeting my son.

Well, it could be demonic infestation or
it could be nothing.

Yeah. He wants me to drop by tonight.

Why tonight?

Well, that's apparently when this entity
appears.

Well, demonic entities aren't just like
haunted house ghosts.

They don't just wait for nightfall.

I know.

I'll probably just go by myself.

No. I'll go too. You don't have to. I
don't mean to drag you into it. It's...

Kristen, just give me the address and
the time.

All right. Thanks, David.

I knew you wouldn't be able to resist.

Friendly visit.

When's ordination?

Next week.

Ah, the countdown.

You want to find out if there's
something better?

No.

Just talking.

Well, let me do my song and dance.

The Catholic Church has some good
points, but they're not worth the loss

freedom. You go where they say, do what
they want.

While here, this is my church.

That's our youth fellowship rehearsing
for their theater night.

Our literacy station can get a little
noisy.

Volunteers try and assist people who
need it.

Job applications, school, essays.

We're just getting ready for a BLM march
downtown.

How long would it take to get that
authorized through the archdiocese?

They'd still be arguing liability by the
time we're out on the streets

protesting. So you leave the church
instead of trying to change it.

2 ,000 years is a lot to try to change.

Does it bother you that you'll never be
pope?

I don't want to be the pope.

And I'm not so sure that's true.

Italians would never allow a black pope.
Come on. I'm made in God's image.

Not the pope's. God's not the one that
we see on TV.

There'd be a place here for you if you
wanted.

You'd be a major force.

Think about it.

What are you looking for? Oh!

Oh, sorry.

What's that for?

Oh, well, people sometimes think they
see something, but they're actually

reacting to sounds. So I listen for the
sounds of a house settling.

Got it. Yeah.

I already told David this, but I'm
thinking of following you guys around,

writing a book about it. Why?

Because your work is fascinating.

What did David say?

No.

Yeah. He's probably worried that you're
going to make us look like a cartoon.

No, I wouldn't do that. I would be
respectful.

I... I got

pushed.

By whom?

I don't know. I wasn't home when it
happened, but he was alone in the house,

he said it felt like someone pushed him.

Does it itch?

There's something else.

What? It feels like bugs are crawling
underneath, and when I try to scratch

it feels like they're biting.

When does it come off?

Three weeks, then they'll assess.

What's that?

Uh, water damage from the rain?

What's above there?

The attic.

Oh my gosh.

Are you okay?

Sorry, I should have warned you.

You want me to go up? No, I'm fine.

What?

Nothing. Just the smell.

Sorry, Terry. Things are stored up there
and I can't. Nobody goes up to clean.

No one has to come up there and help
you, do you?

No, I'm fine.

Oh, man.

Okay.

I'm gonna make this fast.

Okay, the bedroom in.

Nothing. I'm just talking to myself.

Another thing about a book is it could
convert people.

You mind holding this? No. Have you ever
been to Bali?

A lot of belief in medicine and spirit
there. They take it all as one.

It's a mill.

Something died up here.

Here's something.

There's the water damage.

You can help.

No, I got it.

I forget sometimes that we're working
with a 12 -year -old.

Oh, my God.

What is that smell?

But it's not rain damage.

Looks like rust.

I don't know. Maybe we shouldn't open
it.

Why not?

What is it?

I don't know.

A mummy?

In bubble wrap? If I had a mummy, I'd
wrap it in bubble wrap.

Thank you so much for doing this, Lynn.

He's a very sweet boy.

We're biased, of course.

Well, he's a little bit shy at first.

But we're sure he won't give you any
trouble.

Call us if he does.

All the emergency numbers are on the
fridge.

I'm sure we'll be great.

I'm sure, too.

Sebby!

Want to come say goodbye to Mommy and
Daddy?

Oh, um, bedtime is at 8 .30, and we
should be home around 9?

Sounds good.

Okay.

You're going to listen to Lynn tonight,
yeah?

Bye.

Bye. We'll see you two later. Bye, guys.
Bye.

So what should we do?

Any ideas? Is there a game you want to
play?

I don't pick the games.

My friend does.

Your friend always decides what games
you're going to play?

Yeah. And you never get any say?

He says I have to listen to him.

Because he's older than me.

Well, we're friends now.

So, what about Jenga?

Hide and go seek?

Okay.

You hide and I'll find you.

Count of ten?

Close your eyes. Okay.

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Five.

Six.

Seven, eight, nine, ten. Ready or not,
here I come.

If Debbie isn't here, I'll have to keep
looking.

Wow, I can't find him anywhere.

Why aren't you hiding?

Sebby?

What are you doing?

Come on, Sebby.

Let's go play.

My friend said I couldn't.

That's your friend?

The doll?

He told me not to move.

So I can't play.

I'm really sorry.

It's okay if you want to play something
else.

You can tell me.

No.

I like hide -and -seek.

But I have to do what he says.

Because he just seems small.

But he's actually big.

It was my wife's, but she'd sworn she'd
gotten rid of it. Why did she get rid of

it? She bought it at some flea market a
decade ago, and the guy she got it from

told her some bizarre story about rules
for care.

She thought it was funny, but it always
creeped me out. What are the rules?

If you don't do what Eddie wants, he
hurts you.

Eddie? That's his name. And how are you
supposed to know what it wants?

Well, she told me she'd thrown it away.

Maybe it told her not to.

I should check this chemical for
toxicity.

You mind if I take the doll?

Please.

Remember, which is more important, being
smart or... Becoming!

Right, exactly. Now go get a marginal
education.

Bye, Grandma.

Bye, Grandma. Love you.

Bye, Grandma. Bye,

Grandma. Love you. Bye. Go.

Okay.

Hey. Hey. Do you have a kid here? No, I
followed you.

You did? That's sinister.

What are your plans? I need your help.
With?

There's a game I'd like to play, if
you're up for it.

It depends. What is it?

I ask you to do two things.

If you do them, I give you one thing.

Okay, I do two things, you do one thing.
That does not seem fair. But the one

thing I do for you is invaluable.

Invaluable is subjective, right?

No, it's really not.

So what are the two things that I do for
you? Well, that's the game. You don't

know.

Don't you hate every street you walk
down, every corner you turn? You know

what'll be there?

This time, you won't.

Are these your offices?

I don't do permanent offices. I float.
Oh, I didn't know you could do that.

Oh, I can do a lot of things that might
surprise you.

Oh, I need you to put these on for the
meeting.

Oh, so there's a meeting. There is.

Solve this.

When? Now, for the whole meeting.

Last thing.

There is another man inside that room.
His name is Asa. He does not exist.

The only thing you care about is that
puzzle.

Solving it.

Until you hear me say the word daffodil.

Then I want you to go to him, count to
three, and slap him across the face.

You aren't serious.

Am I not?

Asa, how are the kids?

Can I call my own children annoying?

Maybe go with cute.

Asa Linder.

Shall we start?

Yeah. You remember Jim, Tom, and Jerry?

Ah, yes.

Three wise men.

Okay, Ed.

We're all ears.

Thank you.

You will need to transfer the fleet out
of the LLC's name and the apartment. I'm

sorry? Once a business has been
dissolved, you have to transfer any

of the LLC's name and back... I thought
we were finding solutions.

Your firm provides too many services to
cut a profit.

You want to be an all -things -to -all
-people company, and you are not.

I've spent the last 15 years building
this place. And that's part of the

problem. 15 years.

That's too long. I've paid you millions
of dollars to find a path forward.

My grandmother used to say...

If you woke up a daffodil and want to be
a rose, then it's going to be a long

day.

Here is your problem, Asa.

You are a daffodil.

Cheryl, do you need something?

Oh, my God.

Nice seeing you, Asa.

You were amazing.

Yeah.

Hi, we're Whitney and Travis Vesta,
Lynn's babysitter, Sebi. Oh, yeah, hi.

Nice to meet you. We're sorry to just
stop by.

The thing is, Sebi's favorite doll is
missing.

And he's quite, he's emotionally
attached.

He can't sleep without it. We're really
worried about disrupting his routine.

Sure, yeah, that's understandable.

So, we hate to ask this, but is there
any chance Lynn has his doll?

We're not trying to suggest that she
took it. Maybe just that she

put it in her bag. I don't see how she
could have done that.

Could you ask your daughter, please?

We'd really appreciate it. Sure, I'll
ask and I'll give you a call.

Could you find out right now?

No, she's asleep.

I'll call you.

Good night.

I don't want you to babysit for them
anymore.

I have their doll in my bag, but I
didn't steal it.

Then why do you have it?

I don't know.

I think Debbie put it in my bag. I think
he's scared of it.

Okay.

Well,

his parents want it back, so why don't
you grab it and I'll explain it was a

mistake. Okay.

What is it?

There was a doll in my backpack and now
it's gone.

You're always touching my stuff. He
wasn't doing anything.

You definitely stole my stuff.

Let's all get a grip. What's going on? I
think Lexa stole it. No, she didn't. I

don't even know what you're talking
about. Okay, it must be somewhere. Let's

just all look. Everyone take a room. I
got this. I'm moving on my way. Just lay

him on me.

What is it?

What's on your mind?

Does it ever bother you that you'll
never be Pope?

No.

Does it ever bother you that you might?

No.

Sister, that man that fell in love with
you, do you ever regret not going off

with him?

That man?

Hmm.

He became a top real estate agent in
Philadelphia.

He married.

He had three kids.

And then on August 18th, 2008, he went
into a Wendy's, bought a cheeseburger,

went back to his car, ate it, and shot
himself.

Why?

Because his wife was divorcing him,
because his kids wouldn't talk to him,

because he was alone.

I'm sorry.

So when you ask me as a nun if I'm ever
alone,

No, I'm not.

I'm never that alone.

I know why I'm alive, and it's not to
sell real estate. It's warfare at its

highest level.

And it's why you're alive, David.

Who's been in your ear?

No one. Bull.

Whoever's asking you these questions,
you ask them this.

How do they contend with evil?

Do they believe in the demonic? And if
they don't, why listen to them?

I just want a normal life.

Too bad you can't.

This man had my photo and my number in
his wallet. That's why the police called

me to the Wendy's.

And that is the saddest part of this.

He didn't have the number for his wife.

He didn't have the number for his kids.

He had the number of a nun he hadn't
seen in 30 years.

You're not alone, David.

That's the good news and the bad news.

God is here.

And the devil is too.

Why'd you leave the church?

Are you getting serious about leaving?

I just want to know.

I didn't leave the church. I left the
priesthood.

Why? I stopped believing in it.

The scandals?

Of course.

Child rape has that effect on me.

And not the fact that you met a nun you
wanted to marry?

You googled me.

Look, did I leave the church because I
fell in love? Sure.

But I'm here at my church.

Doing God's work.

And I think you should join me.

Part of my role with the church is
assisting with exorcisms.

Helping people who are under spiritual
attack.

How do you deal with that here?

People here are under spiritual attack.

But it's from red linings, from student
loans, from police shootings.

And the evil of the satanic?

Ah, the hocus pocus stuff.

Look, I love the church.

I love its robes, its incense, its
chants.

But I'm in the 21st century. I don't
believe in a devil with spiked horns and

tail.

I believe in the devil of the burning
cross and the corrupt cop.

Then why believe in God?

What do you mean?

It's the 21st century.

Why believe in the God of miracles and
answered prayers?

You think I need to believe in the devil
to believe in God?

I think you need to believe in what you
call hocus pocus.

God is as much hocus -pocus as the
devil.

I have a question for you.

Look at the people in your church who
handle exorcisms.

Watch them.

In my experience, they're all show
-offs. Not you.

But look at the other exorcists. They're
all performative. They're all into

showing off their spiritual warfare.

That's not biblical.

That's comic book Christianity.

Stay. Come on, help me get this protest
started.

No.

They need me. They pretend they need
you.

But they don't, really.

A 15 -year -old just tried to thaw his
arm off because his house is demonically

infested.

I hope the doll being out of the house
would solve the problem.

But the shadow came back here last night
in this room. Is Elijah all right? He

felt bugs crawling under his calf, so he
took this knife and carved the calf

off. Oh, my God.

I'm gonna turn off the lights. Why?

Ultraviolet.

I found a toxic chemical called EBS in
the doll.

This will help me find traces of it.

How is he? Is he still in the hospital?

Overnight. He damaged his arm in the
process.

Had to have surgery.

Uh, guys?

What is this?

I believe Nathan Katsaras and Elijah are
suffering from a possible panic

disorder. It's a very common stress
reaction for widowers.

That speaks to his mental state.

But these shapes on the wall?

Ben? Well, possible thermal bridging.

It's all about the way heat moves
through space. If indoor humidity is

ventilation is poor, then dust particles
can clump together.

But into these shapes?

Well, if the previous owners had
Halloween decorations on the wall, for

David? I don't know. His family thinks
it's demonic infestation.

Okay, then I'll dispatch Gregory.

Shouldn't Father Amara handle this one?
No. For an infestation, you don't need a

priest.

We have a trained layman who specializes
in clearing houses of demonic entities.

Gregory can do it.

I am Gregory.

I am here to deal with your infestation.

I know.

Let's get one thing straight.

You lie to me about anything I ask
tonight, I'm out the door.

He has no reason to lie.

It's imperative that I get an accurate
sense of the moral standing of this

family. You know why there's no
infestations in abandoned houses?

Because there's no one there to notice
them.

Because evil only attacks where there's
a soul that's fallen off. That's not in

the catechism. It's in the catechism of
Gregory Beale.

born out of 11 years scouring evil from
places like this one.

I'm opening it. Then do it faster. Just
wait.

That's Grandma's doll.

What? That's Grandma's. No, it's not.
It's Lynn. And Lynn took it from

What are you doing?

Lexi, come back.

Lexi, give it back.

This is where she keeps it.

What does she do with it?

Why does she have a doll?

She has for things.

Like what?

I only want to eat this for the rest of
my life.

It's like a flower, isn't it? The way
they arranged it.

It looks like daffodil.

May I help you?

No need to be formal, Charles.

What are you... I got tested, like you
suggested.

There you go.

I don't know this woman.

Oh, are you the wife? Because there's
nothing to worry about. It's all good.

I'm going to need everyone.

Except David to stand as far away as
possible while we do this.

It's for your own safety.

Ah, Zepar.

My old adversary.

Again, you again?

But this will pop you. No, don't do it.
It'll make it look ridiculous.

Don't.

This dwelling.

is now yours.

Hello?

What's going on?

I... Never mind.

Hold on.

You've got something on your nose.

Two tasks.

Yep. Now it's your turn.

My turn for... For the one priceless and
one -of -a -kind thing that we all need

to remember.

Let's go.

You have already received it.

You learned the greatest lesson of all.
Your inner strength.

No, I was joking. I was joking. Thanks.

That hurt.

What are you doing for me?

You have graduated.

This is the head of my great
-grandfather.

Our family always wanted to keep a piece
of our patriarch close to us.

This heirloom has been passed down
through generations.

And now, you are my successor.

This is your signal.

I want the doll back.

Why?

I didn't tell you everything.

When my wife was alive she would give
Eddie little gifts to keep him happy.

She'd laugh it off, but she was
superstitious about it.

I know it sounds weird, but maybe I need
to do the same.

Did something happen?

I saw the shadow again last night.

The exorcism didn't work. Giving to the
doll isn't gonna do anything.

Do you know that? He doesn't, but I do.
Well, it couldn't hurt.

And for years, my wife gave to the doll.
Nothing happened.

I convinced her to stop.

I bundled the doll into the attic, and a
month later, my wife died of heart

disease.

Well, that was...

You seem more thrown than usual.

I've been really struggling this last
week.

About your ordination?

Yes.

I just don't know if I'm doing the right
thing.

David.

You and I have been talking for a year
now about everything from God to death

how to be.

And...

You inspire me. I don't agree with you,
but I know you want to be good.

There are so few people who want to be
good.

I'm worried what will happen if you turn
away.

I know I'm a hypocrite for saying that,
but I think you offer balance.

There are all these bad people, and I
think you offer balance to them.

Confess, I... I like our time together.

But what's more important, I realized,
is... is you being this, a

priest, different.

You ever wonder what it'd be like if
things had happened differently?

If I'd met you before all this?

What do we say to each other?

You know I do.

Would we be in love?

Hello it.

Excuse me.
