# The sheets are fine and thin #

# And if you like to rest awhile #

# I'll snugly tuck you in #

# Oh no no said the fly #

# For I've often heard it said #

# They never never wake again. #

You sleep upon your bed.

Osiris.

Emma?

Emma?

Emma, is that you?

Emma, what the hell

are you doing?

Are you sure about this?

Missed you, brother.

Emma?

What just happened?

You don't actually believe

any of this stuff, do you?

I don't know.

It... it might have something to do

with what happened to my family.

Oh!

Johnny, what's wrong?

Grab the other side.

You okay?

I evoke thee,

oh God of Osiris

in the virtue of the most holy

sacrament, Jesus Christ.

Who, for our redemption,

was crucified, suffered death,

was buried, and rose on the 3rd day

by the power of the spirit

of the God Osiris.

We pray to thee, oh Lords.

Amen.

Amen.

Amen.

I, Benjamin,

share the gift of the afterlife

with Bryan.

I, Elizabeth,

share the gift of the afterlife

with Bryan.

I, Faith,

share the gift of the afterlife

with Bryan.

Daniel?

- Say it, Daniel.

- Johnny!

Johnny!

What happened?

It was... they were...

they were all right here, all of them.

- Calm down, okay?

- No.

There's no one here but us.

Just you and me.

It was right in front of me,

I could feel it.

I could feel his breath

on my face.

Just you and me, hear me?

What is it?

Do you hearthat?

- Mr. Judson.

- Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I called the hotel this morning.

They said you never

even checked in.

You... you know, I lost track of time

and I decided to crash here.

Well, it would have been helpful

if you'd called to let me know.

You're right, I'm sorry.

I should have.

All right, well,

we're both here now.

What do you say

we get down to business?

Um, sure.

Come on in.

Hold on, hold on.

The offer's well above

market value.

So, probably, if I were you,

I wouldn't even

bother negotiating.

Just sign it,

be done with this dump.

Yeah, I mean,

I'm sure it's great.

Trust me, if you're holding out

for something better to come along,

it will not be happening

in this economy.

I trust you,

it's just I'm not really sure.

I know, real estate can seem

like a daunting task sometimes.

But that's why I'm here,

walk you through it.

What if I didn't want

to sell the house?

Excuse me?

I just... I sort of feel obligated

to keep it.

It's my family's home.

Johnny, you didn't even

know them.

Yeah, I know that.

Listen, kid, I took on this case

under the agreement

that I receive a percentage

of the sale.

I'm sorry, Mr. Judson.

Then maybe you should rethink

making such a detrimental decision.

This is the last thing

that I need.

Who is that?
