...I'd take some personal time,

just till I was thinking right again.

Excuse me, Miss Raymond?

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to startle you.

I'm Detective Jack Andrews. I heard

what you were saying...

...and, well, Detective Lee's a good cop...

...but she's a little short

on imagination, you know?

- What are you saying?

- I don't really know.

Except Shelley Baum interned

with my sister at Saint Luke's.

My sister Jean, she died in a fall

two days before Shelley drowned.

Oh, I'm sorry.

But then, you see what I'm saying.

Everybody seems to be

linked together somehow.

Something doesn't make sense here so...

...if you can think of anything else,

give me a call.

You didn't get a call, did you?

But my number was in Brian's cell.

I'm gonna be next.

I can feel it.

No, you don't know that, okay?

Because my number is in Brian's cell too.

Here.

No power, no problem.

Any dead people call...

...we're not home.

- Which one is it?

- Uh!

Who?

Oh, God.

Oh, God.

This can't be happening.

There are no batteries.

It says 8:
32 p. m. On Friday.

That's two days from now.

Everything I'm seeing is there. It's real.

I'm seeing it and it's happening...

I do not. Okay?

Okay, you wanna delete it? Do it yourself.

Look, I'm... I'm sure you'll be fine.

I wanna do mine.

- You wanna do it too? Go ahead.

Go on, you can all do it.

There you go.

- That's a...

- Wait.

Sorry, ladies.

It just doesn't work that way.

Right. You're telling me

that we can't cancel the service?

You don't have to cancel.

Just use up your minutes.

That's what I'm trying to tell you.

We don't wanna use this phone at all.

Well, the phone is yours, so you

can do whatever you want with it.

Miss Anthony?

- Taylor Anthony?

- Yeah.

Ted Summers.

I'm a television producer. I work

on the program American Miracles.

Oh, I've heard of that.

Yeah.

Some students called us

about what happened...

...and they told us

all about your problem.

- Can we help you with something? We're...

- We were very moved by your story, Taylor.

- We think we might be able to help you.

- How?

About five years ago,

my son suffered a possession.

Yeah. It was pretty devastating

for the whole family.

So when I created my show,

I wanted to make it a point...

...to build an extensive resource

of people who were able...

...to deal successfully

with those evil influences like that.

What do you mean,

like, you do exorcisms?

- I think this is nonsense.

- Do you have the telephone on you, Taylor?

- What? No, we threw it away.

- Do you have the phone?

Well, it would really be helpful.

Here. Here.

Now, you show me...

...exactly what happened

when the phone call came in.
