House of Bones Page #3

---

It's just smoke and mirrors.

I promise.

It's movie magic, really.

Please?

Thank you.

My name is Sarah Minor.

Simon has my number.

If you run into

any problems, call me.

Thank you.

I could lose my job.

Here, grab this.

The camera.

Here.

Okay.

What are you doing?

Don't touch anything, man.

It's Tom's rules.

Sorry. Hey, who handles

take-out around here?

No, no, no.

Not that, Bub.

Nobody touches that.

Touch this.

Don't touch that.

Dude, don't you

make up those lines.

Listen, these work

on suction, okay?

Get it on the wall,

then pump it up.

A little suction, okay?

You get it?

We need one of these

in every room

on the far wall.

Tom will tweak the angles

once they're up.

Okay? You with me?

Got it?

This is what they, like,

climb buildings with, right?

Yeah, you sure can.

What's that toy, man?

This toy?

Well, this is no toy, okay?

Bub, this is Chucky.

Chucky, Bub.

Chucky's got balls of steel.

Literally.

He's a little bit higher up

on the food chain than you are.

All right?

EMF reader, infrared lenses,

DAT recorder.

Sennheiser MD-421 mic,

500-gigabyte hard drive,

lab kit. Okay?

Quentin had said

there would be free t-shirts?

Does that still happen?

You haven't had the talk

with him, have you?

No.

Hey, Bub, listen.

Uh, don't talk so much.

And just listen. Okay?

Stay out of the way,

stay out of the shot.

- Stay out of the shot.

- 10-4. Absolutely.

And just do what

we tell you to do...

and only what we

tell you to do.

- Is that okay?

- No problem with that.

Shh.

Is that his tech guy,

camera guy?

What's the deal?

Lead investigator.

Cinematographer.

Wasting everybody's time.

Don't do that.

- It's beautiful, isn't it?

- Oh, jeez.

Sorry.

You have to be careful

in a house like this.

Uh, yeah.

There is so much pain

surrounding us.

How was the drive?

It was fine.

Good.

Uh, I have your contract

in the van, by the way.

If you want me to get it,

I can bring it in.

- We can sign it now or later.

- Whatever you like.

Okay.

This is a very special house.

There's just...

There's just so much pain

and pleasure,

it's overwhelming.

Listen... Heather, is it?

Uh, let's wait for the cameras

to start rolling.

We'll get some interviews

and some close-ups of you

walking around the house.

You don't have to convince me

of anything, honey.

You got the part, trust me.

So you don't believe.

No offense.

I mean, really,

I just, uh...

I've been on the show

for four years.

I've been to over 50

haunted houses,

and the scariest thing

I've seen is a girl

that tried to pick up Greg

in a bar in Tuscaloosa.

I mean, you can definitely

walk the walk,

and you've got a great look.
