that means anything.

- When I first met

your father Olivia,

I was very overwhelmed

with his ability

to move objects with his mind.

Karl Raymar was one

of the only true

practitioners of

telekinesis in the world.

- But I was raised by my

family to believe that he was--

- He was a fake.

No, no, your father was no fake,

he was a genius in

his field until ...

- What?

- There is a phenomenon, it's

called psychic vampirism.

Have you ever known

anyone who's left you

feeling physically

drained of energy?

- Yes.

- Most people who

are psychic vampires

and do this to you

don't even recognize it.

Raymar found that he could drain

the bio-energy from

things and then use

that power to move,

or levitate, objects.

(Allan laughing)

- You mean that my father

drained those girls of life?

- He didn't mean to.

He would pick up a

hitchhiker and then

take them to his apartment.

He would there frighten his

victim to an incredible degree.

Then he would drain the energy

from the adrenaline

that he had stimulated.

He wouldn't listen to me,

it was a negative energy

that he was dealing with

and valuable power

is what killed him.

- Oh brother.

- Olivia.

Your father allowed

himself to die.

Listen to this in private.

The tapes from my

research associate,

he conducted some

studies with your father.

- [Carol] Mom, can you get that?

- [Carol's Mom] Why can't you?

- Mom, please.

- [Carol's Mom] All

right, all right!

- [Steve] Is Carol home?

- [Carol's Mom] She's upstairs.

I thought we weren't gonna

be seeing you anymore, Steve.

- [Steve] I just need to talk

to her for a minute, please.

- [Carol's Mom] All

right, but don't be long.

She still has to

do her homework.

- She still has to

do her homework.

(Steve knocking)

Hi, Steve. What a surprise.

- Yeah, I'm sure it is.

- [Carol] Well,

what's the matter?

- Oh, knock it off, I'm

fed up with your games.

Now if you're mad

about our breakup,

you take it out on me.

- Steve, I have

nothing against you.

I really wish it coulda

worked out between us.

- But since it didn't, you

started taking it on Julie.

- Julie's wanted to be in

The Sisters for a long time.

- [Steve] Oh, right.

- She has to go

through initiation

just like anybody would

who wants to join.

- Carol, how dumb

do you think I am?

I know The Sisters

consist of you three.

- We're expanding.

- Listen, I don't

wanna hear anymore

about any initiations,

is that clear?

Now, you understand me?

Well, I gotta go, I got

basketball practice.

- Steve, I miss you.

- Your mom's downstairs.

- I don't care.
