Pay the Ghost Page #5

Why are you showing me this?

What if all of these

missing children,

on Halloween, in New York City,

what if they're all connected?

What if there's

something behind it?

How would we find out?

I have the address

of Alexis Moldanado,

she disappeared on

Halloween two years ago.

I think we should go

talk to her family.

Hello?

Hello?

Excuse me.

Mister Moldanado?

We wanted to ask you

about your daughter.

You see,

our son is missing, too.

Just give me some

f***ing money, man.

He was taken

last year on Halloween.

Gracias, amigo.

I gotta pay the ghost.

Did your daughter say that?

I was there,

at Devon Bodega.

And she said to me,

"Papa, podemos pagar

nosotros a phantasma."

"Can we pay the ghost?"

I was distracted.

I can't remember

she's in front of me.

Next thing I know,

she's just gone.

And one year after,

I started to hear things.

And then I see her.

It's just flashes.

It's real quick.

But she's there.

It's her, I know it's her.

What happened?

It stopped.

Just like that.

She disappeared on Halloween

two years before Charlie.

Just before she vanished,

she said to her father,

"Can we pay the ghost?"

Now that,

is exactly what Charlie

said to me before

he disappeared.

What the hell

you talking about?

Look it up.

On every other

night of the year,

more missing children

are eventually found.

But on Halloween it's different.

On Halloween, more missing

children are never found.

I know how I sound,

but there is

something different,

something mysterious out there,

and it's taking

children on Halloween.

I'm sorry, Mike, but I really

don't have time for this.

He believe you?

Would you?

Carol,

I need you to search

the city database.

I need a printout of all

the missing children cases

from October 31st in

the last five years.

Just get me the ones

that haven't come back.

Well, you're home.

Want to come in?

It's your house, too.

Order dinner, have some wine.

Sure.

Mrs. Wen?

NYPD.

It's about your daughter, Mia.

You find something about Mia?

Can we talk in private?

Just for a minute.

Mrs. Wen, it's possible

that there may be a

link to another case.

It may help us find

out who took Mia.

Two days ago,

something else happened.

Tell me.

I saw her.

Mia?

It was late at night,

I was closing store.

And I think to hear

Mia's voice calling,

"Mama..."

I ran through traffic

to get to her,

but when I arrived,

Mia was gone.

Is it possible that

you just imagined it?

It must have

been somebody else.

Mia would not have

run away from me.

What does that mean?

What you heard her calling?

"Mama..."?

Yes.

Mama, save me from the ghost.

I don't know.

They were wearing old costumes.
