Nathan: I will not let you live. You deserve hell. You deserve pain. You don't deserve to be happy!
Shirley wakes up.
Shirley: Oh God. What is going on? I'm sorry, okay? I didn't know you were this weak. If I knew you were this weak, I would have never dated you!
Shirley hears Alyssa on the phone.
Alyssa: Do you have time today? Okay good. I'll be there around two o clock.
Shirley: Who were you talking to?
Alyssa: Agent Thomas?
Shirley: You going there? Can I come too?
Alyssa: Yea sure. Tell him exactly what happened.
Shirley: Just give me two minutes.
Alyssa: Please don't take all day.
Shirley: I won't, but didn't you say we gonna go see him around two?
Alyssa: It's 12:45 already.
Alyssa's phone rings.
Alyssa: It's Donnic. Why is he calling me?
Shirley: Yea, I don't know either. See what's going on with him.
Alyssa: Hey.
Donnic: Hey, are you guys done with your ghost investigation?
Alyssa: Not really? What's up.
Donnic: Is she, I mean is Shirley in the house? I've been calling her all day, but she hasn't answered me.
Alyssa: Shirley, where is your phone?
Shirley: Should be here somewhere, why?
Alyssa: Donnic has been calling you on your phone for a while now.
Shirley: Oh, where is it? You know what, just give me your phone.
Alyssa: Okay.
Shirley: Hey, sorry about that. I don't know where my phone is at the moment.
Donnic: It's okay. You busy?
Shirley: No, but I just woke up.
Donnic: I wanna show you something. Can I come and pick you up?
Shirley: Right now?
Donnic: Thirty minutes from now.
Shirley: I was kinda going somewhere.
Donnic: Where though? Come on Shirl, you need to see this!
Alyssa: What is it?
Shirley: Donnic wants me to see something.
Alyssa: Hmm, go ahead. We can meet Agent Thomas tomorrow.
Shirley: No, you go ahead and talk to him, and I'll go with Donnic wherever he's taking me.
Donnic: Sweet! See ya.
Shirley hangs up.
Shirley: I wonder what's so important that he wants me to see.
Alyssa: Probably Nathan's broken down car.
Shirley: Shut the hell up! Tell me how the meeting goes with Agent Thomas.
Alyssa: I will.
Two hours later.
West: Hello there.
Alyssa: Hey there. Sorry, I'm late.
Bella: It's not a big deal. We love latecomers.
Alyssa: Okay... Can I go see him in his office?
West: Yes but let me just confirm with him if he is busy or not.
Alyssa: Yea sure.
Officer West gets a nod from Agent Thomas.
West: You may go.
Alyssa: Thank you.
Alyssa opens the door and finds Agent Thomas listening to an old song.
Thomas: Good afternoon.
Alyssa: Hey, how are you?
Alyssa uses Shazam to track the name of the song.
Thomas: I'm good and I am not going to ask you how you are doing because I know you aren't good.
Alyssa: Yea thanks, but last night, I had the camera in my room, and Nathan came to Shirley's room.
Thomas: Did you bring the camera?
Alyssa: Yea, but you won't see Nathan or anything on it since I had it on in my room all night.
Thomas: You never know. Let me have it.
Agent Thomas connects the camera to the big screen, and he and Alyssa watch the recording in fast-forward.
Thomas: Wait, was that Nathan?
Alyssa: I did see somebody standing there. Go back.
Thomas: It is him. He was standing right next to you as you were talking to Shirley.
Alyssa: We were yelling at one another from our rooms, but what was he doing in my room? Where did he come from?
Thomas: I don't know. Let me rewind a little slower.
Agent Thomas and Alyssa continue watching for another five minutes.
Thomas: He came out of nowhere.
Alyssa: That's weird. So he is dead for sure.
Thomas: I did tell you that it was me and my crew who found his body over a year ago.
Alyssa: Yea but for some reason, I thought he was still alive. When I first saw him, his presence felt so real.
Thomas: Most ghosts feel and look like alive human beings.
Alyssa: You are the expert. So what's your plan?
Thomas: I am gonna come and stay with you and Shirley for a night.
Alyssa: Just you?
Thomas: No officer Bella and officer West too.
Alyssa: Let me call Shirley and ask her if it is okay for you to stay at our place.
Alyssa calls Shirley.
Alyssa: No answer.
Fifty miles away.
Donnic: So you ready?
Shirley: It better be good.
Donnic shows Shirley an old house.
Shirley: What's this place?
Donnic: My dad bought this property and he is going to help me with funds to start a business of my own. It is going to be our business.
Shirley: Really? What kind of business?
Donnic: I am still deciding, but it's going to be really cool.
Shirley: I bet. I'm excited about it! We will be in charge, right?
Donnic: Duh, it's our business.
Shirley notices a sticky note right by the door.
Shirley: Wait a second.
Shirley goes to the front door and picks up the note.
Shirley: Oh my God!
Donnic: What's wrong? What is that? 'You are so dark and fragile.'
Shirley: He is going to ruin this for us.
Donnic: What? Who are you talking about?
To be continued.
