The Civil Dead (2022) - full transcript

A misanthropic, struggling photographer just wants to watch TV and eat candy while his wife is out of town, but when a desperate old pal resurfaces, his plans are thwarted, with spooky consequences.

- Did you hear that?

Babe?

- No.

- It was really loud.

It was upstairs.

- Oh, it's okay, it's nothing.

- No, it's not okay.
- Let's go back to sleep.

- Well, you didn't hear it,
it's really, really loud.

Can you please check?

- Nothing's gonna happen,
we're in the middle of nowhere.

- No, I know that we're
in the middle of nowhere,



but that makes it scarier.

- Oh, it's.
- Houses

is in the middle of
nowhere get broken into.

Houses in the middle of
nowhere have things happen.

- If somebody wants to break in

and that's the only
sound they make,

then they can have
everything they want.

- All right.

- Also, this isn't
even our house,

so as long as they don't
wake me up, I don't care.

- All right.

Wait, my iPad's downstairs too.

- Your iPad?

- Yeah my iPad.



Did you lock the door?

- Yes.

- Are you sure?

- Yes.

- Okay, I'm gonna check.

- Check myself.
- Fine, I will check, I will.

I got it.

I'll never end of it.

- Okay, thank you.

Anything, anything weird?

- No, your iPad is safe.

- I think you came
from upstairs though.

- The attic?

- Yeah.

- It's probably just a
raccoon or something.

- I think I know what
a raccoon sounds like.

This was like a man sound.

- It's probably a big raccoon.

- No, like.

- No case closed.

- Have to be like a
really big raccoon.

- Please turn off the light.

- Okay, I'm turning
off the light,

but it's not a big raccoon.

And I love you.

-  I know.

-  No, not I know.

Not I know.

-  I love you too.

-  Okay, thank you.

- Oh, do you to
get Lenny cat food?

- I don't think so.

Is it this way?

- No.

- Okay.

- You been here before?

- I don't know. I don't
know what I'm doing.

- It's this place
right over there.

- What are we doing again?

Buying a hard drive.

- Oh yes, we have
to get hard drives.

- Isn't there like a producer
that does that for you?

- Yes, normally a producer
does that or a PA.

I guess producers are too
busy to do crap like that.

- How are you gonna be gone for?

- I think just a few
days. I really hope not more.

- Isn't there a pizza
place? Like bread up here.

- Yeah.

We've gone there
before, it's good.

But I don't know, I don't
really feel like sitting down.

- Wait, is that the one with
the macaroni cheese pizza?

Is it?

- I think they do have that,

but that does not sound
good, and I do not want that.

And I also don't want
anything with meat.

Oh my God, I'm so full, I
think I'm gonna lay down

when I get inside.

- I kinda want a sweet treat.

- What?

- What?

I want like, you know, like
a brownie or something.

- We ate so much,
I'm about to bust.

- Yeah, I'm full of dinner too.

But I think I would like
to cap off the night

with a sweet treat
is what I'm saying.

- I think we have
some grapes in the freezer.

- Babe, no I
said a sweet treat.

I don't want like a
frozen fruit salad.

- No, you put
a little lemon on them.

- There are some
people who believe in ghosts

and there are some
people who don't.

If you are the believe
in ghosts kind,

then this story is about one.

And if you are the don't
believe in ghosts kind,

well just for fun, this
story is about one anyway.

His name was Casper
and he was surely

the most unusual ghost
there ever was or wasn't,

depending on how
you feel about it.

Every time.
- Can I turn this off?

- What's that?
- The TV?

- Oh yeah, you
can turn that off.

What's your thoughts
on this haircut?

-  Hmm, weird.

You want it for yourself?

- Yeah.

Weird in a good way?

Like full weird?
- I mean on him,

it's kind of weird
on a good way,

but I don't know if it
would be the same on you,

'cause he has completely
different hair than you.

-  What do you mean?

It's both brown.

What other?

It's straight brown hair.
- His is like way thicker,

so it like sticks out further.

But when you do it, it's gonna
like clinging to your head.

- Okay.

I think this is what
I need right now.

I need something to make me
stand out as a photographer.

I feel like this is my
key to getting more work,

is to have an ugly
ass, fucked up haircut.

- But you wanna
get recognized for your work,

not for your hair.

- I mean, if's
the same end goal,

I don't know why it matters.

It's me getting
more work, you know,

I'll do anything
to get more work.

Cut off my fucking head

if it would help to
get a deal, you know.

- This is based off
of the photograph?

Oh.
- Yeah.

You not like it?

- We can go clean it up.

Do you wanna, should
we go clean it up?

- What's wrong?

Just tell me what's wrong.

- That's a full on mullet.

This is what you wanted?

- Yeah, I like it,
I think it's fine.

- It's definitely
like British looking.

Oh my God.

Babe, did you hear that?

- What?

What's going on?

- Shh.

Shh.

There's someone,

something just got knocked
over in the kitchen.

I think someone's in here.

- What did you say?

- Did you lock up the house?

- Yes.
- Shh, shh.

Do you hear that?

- What's wrong?

- We should go look,

we should go look to see if
someone's in the kitchen.

- Someone's in the kitchen?

Wait, Lenny, what are you?

Wait, no don't,
wait don't eat that.

What the hell?

What the hell?

Oh it's okay.

Lenny just knocked
over one of your bowls.

You okay, boo?

- No, it just feels weird here.

I just don't like it.

- What do you mean?

- 'Cause I just, I never
got spooked like this

at my last place.

- It's okay.

You just need to get used to it

and you gotta know that
there's no one out to get us.

And if there were and
they break into our house,

I'll just whoop their ass.

It's just that
simple, okay, boo.

All right?

Okay, can you turn
off the light now.

- Babe, don't
forget, we gotta pay rent.

-  Oh, okay.

- I'll just send you
my half right now.

You got some big
plans while gone,

you gonna have some guy time?

- No, I'm not.

I mean, who would I
have guy time with?

- Budd.
- No.

No, I don't really hang
out with funny anymore.

He's became a full
blown gambling addict.

You know about this?

- No.

- Yeah he is.
- What happened?

- He just gambles, He
gambles all the time.

And Jane almost left him
cause he gambled his rent.

- What?

- Like two months in a
row, it's really bad.

Every time I hang out with him,

it's just sob story after
sob story, and it's just ugh.

- What about Andy Sandberg?

- The big actor that
I'm friends with.

Yeah, he doesn't
have time for me.

Is that surprising at all?

- Didn't he say he had like a
set photographer gig for you?

You guys could like, hang
out, do a little work.

- What do you want,

you want me to hang
out or to get a job?

- I mean, both.

You need to take advantage of
this free time that you have.

Like you don't have any photo
gigs and yeah that sucks.

But you have a ton of free time.

Like you could go out,
you could have a show,

you could create, get
a bunch of photos.

- Yeah, maybe I'll do a
show while you're gone.

Maybe the next few days,
I'll just do a show.

That's a really good idea.

- Just
promise me something.

- Right, okay.

- You'll try to go outside.
- Right.

- Take some photos.
- Okay.

- Be inspired.
- Right.

- You won't just lay in the
living room and drink beer.

- Okay.

- Maybe you try to call Budd,

maybe he could
use you right now.

- Okay, gotcha.

- I'm definitely calling Jane

to see what all
of this is about.

- Yeah, you maybe you
need to do that for sure.

- Just call Budd.

- Okay, I will, stop.

- You know, this
gambling thing is crazy, man.

I'm in Gamblers Anonymous,
did I tell you that?

There's a guy in there
who bet his family dog.

Anyways, I'm not one to talk.

'Cause I don't know if I
actually told you this before,

but I bet Jane's car.

I was in a real bad spot

and I really didn't have any
more money left to gamble,

so I was like,
hey, you know what?

I do have the pink slip in
my pocket, which is weird.

Anyway, there's no real
coming back from that.

I mean, you gamble
someone's car.

I mean, that's just
like all time low.

But anyway, that place is great.

I'm learning a lot.

And a lot of the people in
there have similar situations.

I mean, some of them were even
a lot way worse than cars.

Hey man, are you listening to
me, can you hear me, hello?

- Yeah, man, that
sounds sounds crazy.

Hey, listen, the reason
I called you originally

was because I'm kind of
in a pinch right now,

money speaking, and
I might need a borrow

like a couple of hundred
from you for rent.

And you know, if you don't
got it, it's totally fine.

- But wrong
with you, dude?

I don't have any money,
I gambled it away.

I'm in Gamblers Anonymous.

- Yeah, no, sorry, I guess.

- Weren't you
listening to my story.

- Yeah, no, no, it's cool,
it's cool, it's fine.

- Dude, even if I had
a buck for you to borrow,

Jane manages all my accounts,

I don't have access to anything.

I mean, if I found a
crumble cash in my cargoes,

you know I'm gonna put it
straight on Caveman Keno.

- All right, Lenny.

I'm gonna have you
in the studio today.

But guess what I got you, dude.

I got you some tune on toys.

So there's some tuna right here.

I got you a bed right here.

Papa's gonna be in the
house for about two hours

and I'm gonna come back, I'm
gonna grab you and that's it.

- We just love this
neighborhood so much.

- Yeah, it's a great
neighborhood, it really is.

- It feels like it's
gotten so popular.

I mean, we're like having to

be like 10th in line
for every place.

- That's the annoying
thing about this whole area.

- I guess so.

Stop put that down.

Don't touch, you don't
need to open anything.

Sorry.

-  It's okay.

- So are we the first
people seeing the place?

- Technically you are the
second couple to see it.

- Okay.
- But to be honest with you,

the first couple didn't
really seem that interested.

- Okay.
- So if you put in an.

- Put that down.

- So all you have to do is
just send me this application.

- Okay.

- And also there is a
$50 application fee.

- That's okay.

- There's a background check.

- Totally get that.

- Yeah, so you can send it
to that email right there.

And there's instructions.

If you have any questions
at all, just let me know.

- Okay.

Put that down.

No, put it back where it was.

Nope, it wasn't.
- Come on in.

- CJ, put it
back where it was.

- So welcome gang.

Just to let you know, the past
tenant stuff is still here,

but they're moving out in a week

and we're gonna
repaint everything

and this place will be ready
the first of the month.

- Amazing, thanks.

Oh my God, I love it, I love it.

- It's a big place for 1,600.

- No, I know, that's
what I'm saying.

It's like a really good deal.

Like I think we
should jump on it.

- Yeah.
- Honestly.

- Hey gang.

Any questions, concerns?

- Yeah, is it really just 1,600?

- Yes, and that's monthly.

- It's amazing.

We've been staying in a
sublet around the corner

for a month, a month now.

And this is just the
best neighborhood.

Like we love it.

- We haven't seen
anything around here

under two grand though.

- Shut up.

He thinks it's a scam.

Can you believe that?

Just you are so.

Sorry.

- Well, you know what?

The landlord of this
place is like really old

and I don't really think
he cares about money.

So it's kind of like a
perfect, you know, situation.

- I did see someone
else leaving.

Was she interested or?

- Who was that?

Oh yeah, so there is
one person ahead of you.

But to be honest,

that person didn't really
seem that interested in it,

so I'd recommend getting
an application in ASAP,

which I put some right there.

- Yeah great.
- Great let's do it.

- Cool.
- Great.

- Okay.
- Awesome.

- Let me know if you
have any other questions.

- No, I got a question.

Is that you,

in the painting?

- Who, that guy?

-  Looks just like you.

- Oh, that does look like
me, weird, oh my God.

And he is, what the heck?

I didn't even notice
that, that's just crazy.

- Yeah that's not me.

But yeah, if you guys
have any other questions

I'm gonna be down there.

- Thank you so much, okay,

care about how it looks.

- Yeah, thanks man.
- Holy shit,

are you friends with Nick Kroll?

- No, that's actually
Andy Sandberg.

- You're friends
with Andy Sandberg.

- Yeah, I am actually.

Well old friends, I don't really
see him that much anymore.

- I love, "Always Sunny."

That's the kind of I want to do.

I want to make like
prestige television,

like that's the new movies,
you know what I mean?

But I just keep getting
these little parts

in these indie
movies, which is cool

because you know, there's
a chance, a bunch of 'em

could go to Sundance and
then I can just blow up,

which sounds lame
or whatever, but.

- Seems like you're
acting a lot lately.

So you're like staying busy.

- Yeah, I mean, honestly, yeah.

I've been busy, you know,

like I've been
working quite a bit,

just like, you
know, small things,

but like I'm trying to take
it seriously because you know,

it's a privilege to get work
in general in this business.

It's a harsh, like vicious
business, you know.

And so I take it seriously.

Like I'm either shooting
something or if I'm not shooting,

I'm prepping for something
or I'm auditioning or.

- Are you prepping
for something now?

I mean, I'm only saying that

because of what you're
wearing, which is.

- I mean, oh shit, I totally
forgot I was wearing this.

- Yeah.
- I know.

No, I mean, in a way, yeah.

I was doing a fitting earlier
today and in the costumer,

she told me to wear this
to kind of break it in

because it's.
- Oh, right.

- Right, you know.

Who knows, right?

And you took this photo?

Yeah, that's, yeah, I took that

photo, yeah.
- Yeah,

this was in that photo book.

- Yeah, yeah it is.
- I think when I'm seeing,

when I look at it, I'm thinking.

- All the locks are.
- The locks

are just like popping out.

- And the red is cool.
- The red, yeah,

the red part of the locks.

Yeah, see, I would never,

I would just walk right by
that and say, okay, you know.

- Yeah.
- That's why

I don't do photos,

I would just walk right
by that and go, eh.

Morning pal.

- Morning.

- Did you stay over last night?

- Oh yeah, man.

Drank a lot.

You passed out, just wanted
to make sure you were okay.

- Yeah, I did drink a lot.

Hey, just a heads up on today.

Ow my head.

I have a pretty packed
day today and so.

- Gotcha.

What you getting into today?

- I have some, I gotta
do a lot of emails,

but I have to do
some photo stuff.

- Oh yeah, you gotta show
me some of your new photos.

- Yeah, for sure.

I think we can, yeah,
we should do that.

I mean, not today, but
later, I think would be good.

But for right now, I
think we just need to.

I know this is
awkward, I'm sorry,

but I need you leave, so.

- I can't leave.

- What's that?

- I'm dead, man.

- Right, yeah, no,
I feel bad too.

So if we can just.

- I can't, I can't leave.

I think you're the only
guy who could see me.

- What do you mean by this?

What are you telling me?

- I think I'm dead.

I think I'm a dead ghost.

- Okay.

How much did you have
to drink last night?

- Nothing.

'Cause I can't drink, I
can't really do anything.

I can't take my shoes
off if I wanted to,

'cause I'm dead, I'm
dead, I'm a ghost.

- Okay, cool.

Just please get the
fuck outta my house.

- Dude, I know
this sounds insane.

I know this sounds crazy.

I know what it sounds like okay.

I've been walking
around for the last,

I don't know how long
and nobody has noticed me

and then suddenly you
can talk to me and see me

and it feels really good.

And I don't wanna
lose this right now.

And so if maybe we could
figure something out

to where we keep being
able to talk to each other.

Maybe I can understand what
the fuck is going on right now.

- Just stop talking
for two seconds please.

I think I need some coffee
before I hear this bullshit.

You wanna come?

You wanna come and get
some coffee with me?

- Oh yeah.

Thanks for understanding man.

- Right.

- It's kind of a
trip, dude, it's like.

-  That's fine.

- I don't know where I've
been or what I've been doing.

I just sort of showed up.

To be honest with you,
this is the first time

I've even been inside in the
last, who knows how long.

- Hey man, are you homeless?

- What?

- Oh, sorry, not you Steve.

- Oh, that's cool.

Hey man, let me
ask you a question,

did you drop any
grapes last night?

- I don't think so.

- All right, well someone
dropped some grapes

and it wasn't me.

- Right.

- I'm not a grape guy myself,

but my fucking dog got into 'em

and I guess dogs aren't supposed
to eat grapes or something.

Anyway, if you ever do get
any grapes at some point,

please keep an eye
on your grapes.

- This guy's
obsessed with grapes.

- Dude, shut up stop.

- What?

- Again, sorry not you it's.

- Oh, that's okay.

- He can't see me.
- I mean,

I'm probably
rambling here grapes.

You don't understand, like,

I didn't get much
sleep last night.

- Just to demonstrate.
- I was grabbing

my poor dogs.
- He cannot hear or see me.

He's looking through
me right now at you.

- She's terrified.
- He's talking to you.

- And I'm like
hey, I'm terrified.

- I don't exist to this man.

Look at this, watch.
- It's so weird

to be in this moment
because 10 years ago,

if you would've told me
that I would be terrified

of a little dog dying.

- I'm sorry.

I know you feel crazy.

I mean, imagine being me,

that guy just looks
right through me man.

Like that's crazy.

I feel nuts.

- Okay, well listen,

I feel like what's
happening here

is that you're going
through a lot of stress

and I'm curious if you have
family that you can call.

If not, then I can probably
help you find a shelter,

if you need one, or something.

- I can't call anybody
because I'm dead.

I can't use a phone, I
can't even talk into it,

nobody'd hear me.

I'm about as dead as old
grape dog over there.

I'm dead.

Maybe you could set me on fire.

If you set me on
fire, you could see

that the fire doesn't
do anything to me,

'cause I'm dead, man.

What are you doing?

-  Looking for my camera.

- Why?

- Well, I
mean, if you're dead

and I take a photo of you,
nothing's gonna show up, right?

- Oh yeah, smart.

Why don't you use your phone?

- Oh, phone's dead.

- You didn't charge
it last night?

- No, leave me alone, stop.

Okay, go, shift, yeah.

Do I need the?

Oh the flash is on.

You ready.

Three, two, one.

- Just to be clear, I'm
hoping I'm in this photo.

I'm on your side.

I really want to be in this
photo, I want you to be right.

Hey, fingers crossed I'm in
it, to tell you the truth.

I mean that would just be,
that would make my day,

if it was all, you know, some
kind of prank or something.

- Nope.

- I'm sorry, Clay.

Clay, I'm sorry.

Clay, dude, I'm
really sorry, man.

-  Go, go away please.

- I know that this
is freaky, dude,

I'm freaked out too, you know.

- Hey man, I don't
really know you that well okay.

So can you just go
away now, please?

- I know that you don't
know me that well, like,

but you're the only guy I knew

whenever I moved
out to L.A. okay.

I texted you, you never
even responded to me man.

And now I'm dead and you're
the only person who can see me.

And I mean, I'm scared, dude.

Like I don't wanna
be alone, man like,

this sucks.

Clay.

- I need to use the restroom.

- What does this mean?

- Please stop.

Just stop talking please.

Do you wanna close the door?

- Yeah, I already
started so I can't.

There's nothing I
can do about it now.

- Okay, I'll just
give you some privacy.

-  Thanks, yeah.

- How's the coffee?

- It's good, I mean it's
not great, that's fine.

Stop asking me questions,
I can't think right now.

- Okay.

You can ask me some
questions if you want.

- Okay, how did you die?

- I don't know,
man, I wish I knew.

- Do you have a last
memory or something

that you can work off of?

- No, totally hazy, I got
nothing for you there.

- Right, okay cool,
that's very cool.

- I don't know, man,

I just like kind of began to
exist in a new kind of way.

- Right.

- All I do is follow
people around.

- Yeah.

- Been following you around
for who knows how long.

- Okay, and that's
just what you do now?

- Oh yeah, follow people around.

I follow people around,
I look at people,

then people go inside
and then I'm outta luck.

- Right, 'cause you
can't go through walls,

you can't pick up anything.

- Dude, I can't move any,

everything weighs
like a billion pounds.

- Right.

What about an online obituary,
have you looked into that?

- Dude, I can't open a door,

you think I can click
clock away on the keyboard?

- Okay.

All right, let me see here.

Yeah, dude, I'm not really
finding your obituary anywhere.

Oh wait, here's a Whit Thomas.

Died 2019, does
that sound right?

- No.

- Oh wait, he's a
convicted pedophile.

Wait, why would
they include that?

- Dude, you're not
gonna find an obituary, man.

My family probably doesn't
even know I'm dead.

- God, this is fucking annoying.

- Why are you
taking this so hard?

I'm the ghost.

All that changes about your life

is now you got a
special little gift.

- What gift does that?

- Dude, you shine.

- I do what?

- You shine, dude, like the
kid from, "The Shining."

"I see dead people."

That's you, you got that now.

- Why do I only see you?

- I don't know.

You didn't know I was
dead until I told you.

-  Right.

- So maybe you see dead
people all the time,

you just don't know it.

- Stupid gift.

- Oh, oh this is interesting.

Maybe I'm here to help you.

And that's how I get
to the afterlife,

I'm supposed to fix
you in some way.

- There's something to
fix here man, I'm good.

- Dude, I've been falling
around for a week now, man,

you're a loser,
there's a lot to fix.

You got money trouble,

I can help you with that, I bet.

- I do have money trouble yeah.

- Okay, so how can I help
you with money trouble?

- Help me rob a bank,

or you rob a bank and
I'll keep the money.

- I can't touch anything.

- Oh right.

How can you help me?

- Okay, just gimme
a sec, let me think.

You think too.

- All right, I'll think too.

- You got anything?

- No, all I got was I was
trying to remind myself

to think and all I was doing
was thinking about thinking,

but I'll think now.

Well I got an idea.

Hi Budd.

- Hey Clay.

Thanks.

Thanks for letting me
own this game, dude.

- Yeah, I didn't
really know you played.

- Yeah, I play.

- What the fuck did you
do to your hair, dude?

- I think I'm
trying something new

and I think I fucked up, but.

- It looks terrible.

- Yeah thanks.

Hey, is this this a nice car.

- Thanks.

- This your back seat?

- Yeah.

- Oh, it's like
great back seat, man.

Is this Jane's?

- Yeah, it's, come
on let's just go.

Look, do you got my buy-in?

- Yeah, I got it.

- That haircut makes
you look like Roman Polanski,

by the way.

-  Oh, that's not good.

My Woody Allen glasses.

-  Yeah.

-  Yeah, that's not good.

- All right, so we
get in and we get out

and then we bet,
once we're up we bet.

- Right, right.

- Get up, get out.
- Good.

Yeah, it makes sense.

- Hey, this is not your
money, so there's nothing

for to worry about.
- Right exactly,

it's not my money, so
it's not a big deal.

- Right.
- Yeah.

Look, these guys in
here they're losers.

They're not the normal type of
person I would hang out with.

- Okay, yeah, I
didn't think they.

- Just want you to
know that going in.

Don't judge me on that.

- Oh my God.

- Oh yeah.
- Oh what a view.

- Dude, this Arnold guy, look,
he really, really likes me.

- Is he the host of this thing?

- Yeah.

That's the only reason why
we're at this home game.

- This is a home?

- Yeah, I told you
it was a home game.

I've been kicked out of
every other home game.

This is the only
one we can go to.

- This is a house
we're walking in to?

- Yeah, dude, this guy's
a big time movie producer.

Come on.

- What kind of
movies does he make?

- Oh, look, I've said this
a million times already,

but I have to say again,

you absolutely cannot say
anything about this to Jane.

- Right, of course.

- Got it?

- If you get a chance
would you ask him

what movies he does.
- I'm not gonna tell anyone.

- Okay.
- I can do you one better.

- Okay let's go.

- What movie says this guy done?

- Hey Budd.

- Hey, how are you?

- Is this your plus one?

- Yes.

- Okay, come on in.

- Thank you.

- What movies as this guy done?

- Buddy.

I love you.

- Hey Arnold.

- Hey, hey, hey, hey.

-  How you doing, man?

- Oh, I'm good, I'm fucking
slaughtering tonight.

- All right, good to hear.

- You ready to get
your ass wiped?

- Hell yeah.
- Yeah.

- This is
my friend, Clay.

- Hi.

- Belle, would you get
my buddy a drink here?

- No thank you, I'm fine.

- No, no, you bring
Budd a vodka cran

and for you Craig?

- Oh, I'll do a beer,
any style please.

- Okay, be right back.

Cool hair.

- Thank you.

- That's Greg,

he's a fucking mess.

- Wow.
- What?

- So what's been going
on, man, how you been?

- Oh man.
- What's new?

- I'm killing, I'm
killing, it feels so good.

- All right.
- Yeah.

What's your deal?

- No, no, he's cool, man.

He's just a friend
that bring with me

to play poker sometimes,
we go way back.

- Here for the free drinks?

This isn't a casino dude.

- Right, no, no, no,
I'm here to, the poker.

- What do you think you can,
"Rain Man" this game, Budd?

No offense, dude, but
with that haircut,

you kinda look
like a, "Rain Man."

- Holy hell, that really is him.

- I'm fucking with you.

- He's fucking great, right?

- Come on up.

- So funny, that's great.

- I love this guy.

Chucky, get your fucking
head off the table.

All right, so how
much today guys?

- 300.

- 300.

- New guy, 600.

-  What?

- Yeah.

New guy pays 600 or he
doesn't play at all.

All right.

Five, 10, no limits.

You're not outta money.

Look at the money you
got around your neck,

put that fucking pendant there.

- Hey man, you
need to worry about

what you got over
there by you, man.

-  You'd bet a ring,

I'll bet my fucking
wedding ring right now.

I will.

- Is it better you
bring your wife.

- You never met her or you
wouldn't say that shit.

Would you get me a
vodka cran, sweetheart?

- Yeah.
- Sure.

- Yeah.
- Thank you.

- I'll have a whiskey and soda.

- You like how I got a
hostess for this game.

She's hot as fuck, isn't she?

She's the PA at one of
the shows I work on.

I would love to smash that.

But you know.

I hate it.

If I wasn't married, I
would cheat on my wife like.

- Go ahead and
show me your cards.

Just lift 'em up casually.

- You okay there, "Rain Man?"

You're gonna be glad I
made you buy more chips

'cause 300, I would've
wiped you out 10 minutes.

- Okay, everybody
else has folded.

It's just you and the
big, don't look at me,

it's just you and the big man.

He's only doing that to see
if you're gonna raise him,

so call it.

- You sure you want
to do that little man?

Last night we had fun

But today I don't know what

I'm outside, too
drunk in the backyard

I'm dreaming dreams of her

White wine and shrimp cocktails

Big money, handshakes,
congratulations

And I know, I know, I know

It's not what I should be doing

But this is what I'm doing

I know, I know, I know, I know

This is what I'm doing

This is what I'm doing

And I know, I know, I know

It's not what I should be doing

This is what I'm doing

This is what I'm doing

- The road is a
lot easier to get.

Yeah, I wanna sit down too.

You're ready to go Whit?

- Yeah.

- Who's Whit?

- Oh, I didn't say
that, I said what.

- I said what.

- What?

-  Oh yeah, I gotta go.

-  Get off my grass.

-  This a blanket.

Oh yeah, let me just
yeah, oh, you got it.

- Okay, can
I have the remote?

-  What's that?

-  The remote.

- Oh.
- For the TV.

- Yeah, it's right here.

All right.

- Thank you.

- I think you're
all set up here.

- Thank you so much,
that was really?

- Yeah, that's good.

You dropped something.

Oh, there remote,
do you need that?

Oh, okay you're out.

- When was the
last time I saw you?

- I don't know,
I don't really remember.

- Was it at your mom's
shrimp bucket brawl,

whenever you were visiting
home, like five years ago.

- Oh yeah.
- Dude, you won man.

- Yeah, I ate a lot of shrimp.
- All that shrimp.

- Yeah, but you know
I got sick that day.

Remember that?

- Oh yeah, you were throwing
up all over the place.

- 'Cause I
had all that snapper.

- Well, you
know the saying.

-  Yeah.

- You never mix
snapper with shrimp.

-  Yeah, exactly.

- Oi, you like taking my
girlfriend's money, do you?

- Hello.

- Hey, so my
flight is getting delayed,

like 30 minutes, I
think they're saying.

I'll just like text you
right before we depart.

- Okay.

-  Are you okay?

You sound tired.

- Yeah, I am tired, sorry.

- What, are
you seeing right now?

- Yeah.

-  Babe, come on.

- Okay, I can't wait to see you.

-  I know me too.

Okay, I love you.

- Love you too.
- Bye.

- I'm almost positive
your cat can see me.

So what's the plan today?

- I gotta go pick Whitney
up at the airport.

- Oh, whoa, are you
gonna tell her about me?

- No.

- So am I just gonna
stay here in secret?

- No man, you're
not gonna live here.

Fun's over dude.

- What?

No.

- I mean, you kind of don't
have a choice here, man.

- You can't just throw me
away like I'm fucking trash.

- Okay, let's just, okay,

no, we don't need
to get heated here.

I think what I meant to say

and I'm sorry if I
wasn't being clear,

is I'm not totally ready to
have you and my life 24/7

while I'm also trying to
live with my wife, right.

We need to slowly
work you in on this.

And the only way we can do that,

is if we're on the
same page, okay.

Does that make sense?

- Okay.

All right, yeah.

- Okay, this is
what I'm thinking.

Give me a week.

- A week, dude that's
a long time, man.

- A week's not that bad.

- What am I supposed
to do for a week?

- Just think about all the
things that you can do,

that other people can't,

hop on a bus, go to Disneyland,

stay there for seven days,
you can sleep over there.

There's so many things
that you can do.

Is there anything
that you wanna do

that you couldn't do
when you're alive?

Well, I think now's a good time

to think about what those
are, right, and do 'em.

So, right, seven days,
give me a week, deal?

- Yeah, I mean, I don't
feel like I have a choice.

- Okay.

All right.

- I'm
not alive, I'm a ghost.

I am a ghost.

I can walk wherever I want
and I can see whatever I want

and nobody knows I'm here.

I hate walking, I miss driving,

I miss sweating, I miss
being hungry and thirsty.

I miss burping and farting.

I'm in L.A. and I'm alone

and I'm dead.

Does anybody know I'm
dead, other than Clay?

Maybe Clay's right, maybe
I should try having fun.

I could do whatever
fucked up shit I want

and nobody will even care.

And there's so much fucked
up shit to get into in L.A.

Wish I would've done more
fucked up shit when I was alive.

- The next stop
is, Southwest Museum Station.

-  Taco Bell.

-  Do you remember this?

-  What happened to that?

- I feel like we got
like in a lawsuit.

I feel like you, you can't
use the word Baha, right,

that's like, gotta be copyright.

- Oh, like what, like Baha Men?

- No, is that the same Baha?

Don't they spell
it with an H, like?

- Oh yeah, it is Baha with an H.

Do you have my jacket?

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.

- Okay, if you're not
cold, gonna be cold.

Thank you.
- Yeah.

I have sweater so I'm
warm, you're warm.

- Well, I have heat at my place

if you wanna, just down there.

- Yeah, let's do it.
- Yeah.

I not a Mountain Dew kind of.

I know it's weird, it's
not just bad for you.

- It smells so good in here.

- Oh thanks.

Oh, it's the candle.

I thought you were
talking about my perfume,

but my roommate
actually makes those.

- Oh.

- Yeah.
- Yeah, I think

it is the candle probably.

Is that her job?

- Sort of.

She has a lot of
jobs, she's like me,

you know, just an artist.

Do you want wine?

Probably shoulda asked
before I poured it.

- Yeah, sure.

Is she home, is
your roommate home?

- No, she is out of town,
she gets back Monday.

So, it's just us.

- That's cool.

- Do you live with anyone?

- Yeah I do.

- Oh yeah.
- Yeah, I live with my,

it's like my
brother I live with.

- Oh cool.
- Yeah.

- It's yeah, it's weird.
- Not but.

- I know it's like,
you know, whatever.

It's like your
siblings kind of not.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

- But.
- I feel like

it gets lonely by myself.

Sometimes I'm like,
I wanna get a pet.

Do you have any pets?

- Yeah, we have a little
family dog, a Yorkie.

- Oh my God, no way.

You're so cute.

- Yeah.

- That's why you're so
cute, runs in the family?

- You're cute.

I'm sorry, I have to go to
the bathroom really quick.

- Oh, it's okay.

It's fine, it's fine.

It's right over there,
just through that door.

- Okay, cool.

I'm sorry, should have done it

when I came in.
- It's fine,

you don't have to say
sorry, I have bathrooms.

I've got another
one upstairs too.

- Okay, yeah. I'm gonna do
this one, thank you, sorry.

Sorry, that's better.

- Good, you wanna
go see my room?

- Yeah, let's do it.

- Okay.

- Not like do it, sorry.

I mean.

-  What did you mean?

- I meant like,
let's see your room.

-  I'm just kidding.

My room was just here.

-  Oh wow.

Cool.

- Oh yeah, that's that light
I told you about, remember?

- Oh yeah.
- Changes colors.

- Oh my God, it does look
like a seashell kind of.

It's like The Little
Mermaid or something.

My jacket's stuck.

Fuck.

-  What, what is it?

-  I'm sorry.

- Oh, it's okay, it's
fine, it's really.

-  I'm sorry.

-  No, I'm sorry.

I should not push this.
- No it isn't, no what?

No, it's not you, I'm sorry.

This.
- It happens.

You don't have to
explain, it's fine.

- I'm there pal.
- It's really fine.

- Hey mom, hey.

Not much.

Hey, I was wondering if
you could gimme a ride,

I'm in Highland park right
now, I don't have my car and.

Okay, cool.

Do you have Eggos at home?

Okay.

- Oh man, I haven't gone to
this Farmer's Market in so long.

I'm gonna get an ice
coffee when we get there.

Oh yeah, and I think
we should drive,

'cause I'm gonna get

a bunch of groceries.
- No babe, let's walk,

we spend like half the time
looking for parking room.

- No, no, no, no, I'm gonna
get a bunch of groceries.

- Actually, yeah let's drive.
- Oh yeah.

- Let's drive.

Let's drive.

- I had kind of a crazy
night last night man,

I was wondering if you.
- Do you have the keys?

Do you have the keys?

- Yes, I have the keys.

- So you don't
gotta react to me.

- Why you acting

like such as spas?
- Just unlock the door.

Yeah, no, just keep it the
keys before we get in here.

- Where are you guys going,

maybe I could just sit with.
- You need to calm down.

This is what I'm
always talking about.

- It'll be cool
if you just let me

go with you.
- You're not calm.

- I promise, I'll be cool.

-  You need to chill.

- Clay.

- And I absolutely cannot
forget to get flour

because it is the ingredient
in the recipe that I'm making.

What's that smell?

Babe, is that the trash?

- I don't know.

- Do you smell that?

- No, not really.

- Babe, oh my God.

That smells so bad, babe,
you gotta take it out.

- Right now?

- Yeah, take out
the trash please.

You just think I wanna
live in this stench.

- Hey Clay.

I know that we had an agreement

and I'm not supposed
to talk to you,

so you don't go
out to react to me.

Especially, 'cause
Whitney's probably in there.

But ghost time is like way
different than human time.

I think it's closer to dog time.

It's kind of a trip man.

Like I don't really know
what to do with myself.

I'm getting into some
sort of creepy situations.

And so I thought
maybe we could come up

with a new agreement, you know.

Actually maybe if you could
just give me a thumbs up

so I know that you can hear me

because this is kind
of freaking me out,

you're not responding.

You do still have your
gift, right, Clay?

Clay.

Hey Clay, dude,

I'm sorry man, that's
all my shit, dude.

I shouldn't have, you know,
burdened you with that stuff.

So, you got every.

Hey dude, dude, I crossed
the line, pal, I'm sorry.

I deserve that, dude.

So I'll, you know, I'll
give you some time.

I'll see you around dude.

-  Okay, he's out here.

There he is.

Get out of here, leave me alone.

Leave me alone.

- Yes.

- Hi.

Is there a Sydney
that lives here?

- What's this about?

- Okay, how do I explain this?

She posted something
online that.

- Ceramics.

- No, no, not ceramics.

It's something, it's different.

And she's experiencing
something I'm experiencing.

And I was wondering if I could.

Is she here?

- Sydney died.

- Oh okay, I didn't
know, I'm sorry.

- Yeah.

So, so, yeah.

- Can I ask how she died,
if that's not too much or?

- She killed herself.

-  I'm so sorry.

- No, it's cool.

It's fine, man, it's fine.

She'd been struggling
for a long time.

-  Yeah.

- Haunted, haunted they said,

haunted by
hallucinations, you know,

veering in and out
and then just snapped.

And just wasn't wasn't here

and couldn't get
back that's all.

It's what the doctor said.

-  I'm so sorry.

- No, no, no,
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

I felt bad for her.

I felt really, really,
really badly for her, I did.

She was a good friend,
she was a good person.

- Oh, hey babe,

I'm making that spicy
stew for dinner,

the one that we
were talking about.

And yeah, I got that
wine that we both like.

- Oh.

- What's wrong with you?

- I don't know, I
don't feel good again.

So, I think I'm gonna
go lay down actually.

- Okay.

I feel like you're not
drinking enough water.

- What was that?

- What was, what?

- What was that noise?

- Oh, I just took
out the recycling

because someone decided
to drink a lot of beer

while I was gone.

- You closed the door?

- Yeah, the door is closed.

Why would I leave the door open?

-  Whit, get outta there.

- No,

- Get the fuck outta my
house right now please.

- No, I hate it out there.

- I don't care if you hate it,

I want you outta my
house right fucking now.

- Babe, are
you in the bathroom?

- What's that?

- Are you
talking to someone?

- What?

- Come back to
bed, what are you doing?

- I'm just goofing
off in the bathroom.

I'll be back in
bed soon, okay boo.

-  Okay.

- You making me look
like a fucking weirdo

in front of my wife.

- Maybe you look like weirdo
'cause you are weirdo.

- Mean me outside
right fucking now.

- Or what?

- Or I won't be
your friend anymore.

Ow, ow.

Okay, get in the car, let's go.

- Dude, Clay, I
don't want to man.

- Get in the car, man.

- What, why?

- I'll explain when
we get in the car.

- Well, you gotta close
your back door, dude.

- Oh God dammit.

- Where are we going?

- Just I'll explain everything

when we get in
the car, let's go.

Okay, here we go.

Let's go.

- I'm not getting in here until
you fill me in a little bit.

Gimme some details.

- Okay, I can't talk to
you around other people.

So we're gonna get in the car
and drive far away from people

so we can have a
conversation okay.

Now please get in the car.

- Okay, all right, thank you.

Clay, Clay don't.

Don't do that Clay.

Clay.

-  Morning.

Morning boo, boo.

Wake up.

- What time is it?

-  It's like 5:30 I think.

So I got a job I think.

- Oh, through Randy?

- Yeah,
one of his friends

is like directing something

and they just need an
onset photographer,

but it's in the mountains
and they need me like today.

- Right now?

- Yeah, I'm wondering if I can
use the car if that's cool?

- Yeah, you can use the
car, I don't need it.

- Yeah, so all right.

I gotta go right now.
- You're leaving now?

- Yeah.

Aw.
- Bye.

Have fun.

-  Thank you boo, boo.

-  Call me.

-  Okay, I'll call you.

All right.

Bye.

Bye, boo.

- Unacceptable, dude
unacceptable, man.

What the?

You locked me in a fucking car.

That's not something a
friend would do, man.

I'm not a dog in a
Walmart parking lot, Clay.

What the fuck man?

-  Oh shit.

- You know Clay, that money
that's in your pocket right now

is my money, dude.

I helped you win that
with my abilities.

You get to live a
comfortable life right now

because of me, man.
- Okay, okay, okay,

stop, stop.

I owe you okay.

- Yeah, you do.

- But you have to understand,

what you did last night
is creepy as hell.

You haunted me like a ghost.

You haunted me like
Casper the ghost.

- Casper is a friend.

And that's all I'm trying
to do is be your friend.

- You were acting like your
friend last night, okay.

So I will admit that wasn't
the best reference, okay.

- Yeah, it wasn't.

But it is, from my perspective,
it is a perfect reference.

'Cause I am your
friend, like Casper.

- I think you missed
the point here.

What I'm saying is you acted

like a fucking creep last night.

And I said, give me seven
days and you gave me a day.

- Dude, I'm telling you,
time is totally different.

- Do you know how
to track the sun?

If the sun's out and it
goes down and comes back up,

that's one day.

Just keep a tally in your head.

You know how to keep

the directions to my
house in your head,

just keep a tally of the days.

- I'm a ghost, I'm
not a mountaineer.

I don't know how to
keep a tally of the sun.

What do you?

How do you, what do you even
know about that language?

I don't know.

- What language?

- The language of the sun.

I'm not.
- What do you think I said?

- I'm not fucking
Leonard da Vinci, dude.

I don't know about that shit.

- Let's just, okay,
let's do this,

I still need to slowly work
you into my life, right.

Well, I can't have
it all at once, okay,

you understand that?

But I understand
that's tough for you.

So how about this?

I give you seven
days, just me and you.

Hey, 10 days, I'll give you 10
days, just me and you, okay.

- When does the 10 days start?

- It starts right now.

I just lied to my wife that I
have a job in the mountains.

And so here's my plan,

we take the money that
we want playing poker,

we put into a cabin for 10 days.

And then after that, we
can start in the plan

of working you
slowly into my life,

but not all at once, okay.

Does that sound
like a good plan?

- I don't know, man.

- Isn't this exactly
what you want?

- You locked me
in a fucking car,

like a goddamn dog
all night long, dude.

- Well, can't you just
sleep or something?

- No, Clay, I can't sleep, man.

I can't eat, I can't jackoff,

I can't do any of the
stuff that feels good.

- Well, I'm sorry.

- For what?

- I mean, don't let me go into,

just your whole situation.

Let's not get into
specifics here.

I'm sorry about everything that
you're going through, okay.

- Okay, cool, let's go.

See the snow, that's cool.

- I didn't really didn't think

it was gonna be snowing up here.

It's cold as a dog though.

- Kinda rocks.

- Yeah.

Hey, remember when that
guy was beating my ass.

- Dude, yeah.

I can't forget that.

- And remember when he got
sucked off me at the end,

remember that?

- No.
- What?

- You don't remember that
you don't remember the guy

getting violently yo inked off
me at the end of the fight?

- No.

How do you remember that?

Well, are you suggesting
that I did that?

- No, I'm just wondering
if you remember

the same thing I remember.

I remember it getting beaten up

and having the
guy sucked off me.

- That's because probably
you're all heated

and in the moment,

and you probably don't
really know what's going on,

'cause how heightened
everything is.

I bet you just hit him
and then he ran away.

You know, you don't know.

- Well, remember that one time
I kicked you outta my house

and you stood up in
anger and a plate

magically flew off my counter.
- Dude,

that's not because of me,
that's because of Lenny.

Lenny got spooked
because Lenny can see me.

So when I stood up.
- Lenny wasn't even there.

- It scared Lenny.

No Lenny was there.
- Okay I don't remember.

- I'm telling you,
Lenny can see me.

I had an idea for something
we could do with your hair.

- Get a haircut?

- No.

So once I had a
really bad haircut.

And then.

- This bad?

- I mean, you know, close,

and I was shooting something,
right, I was on set.

So this guy, the makeup guy
or a hair guy or whatever,

he said, we should
just bleach it

and make it look
like more purposeful.

Like if you just kind of
doubled down on a bad situation,

it makes things
better somehow so,

maybe that's what we
do with your hair.

- It's not a bad idea.

I feel like it would work.

- Hey, look at that view.

- Oh wow, what the hell?

- I get why people
wanna leave California,

but it's so pretty and
like so close to L.A.

- Why do people
wanna leave California?

- Because of taxes or
something, that's what I read.

- Where do you read that?

- I heard it on the
Joe Rogan podcast.

- Joe Rogan?

Did dying give you brain damage,

why you listening to that?

- I like Joe Rogan.

I think he's funny.

This is nice.

-  Yeah.

I wish there was more snow.

There's like snow
where there's no view.

But like when there's a
view, there's no snow.

- Yeah, what do you
think that's all about?

- I think it's
the sun hitting this side

and melting all the snow.

- Yeah, I guess
there's no way to really know.

- Well, I think
of what I just said was.

Okay, you wanna take
a photo right there?

-  Oh yeah.

-  Okay, point.

All right, got it.

Whoa, watch yourself, man.

-  Stepped in a hole.

-  I saw.

You wanna go back.

-  Yeah.

Even if I fell through that hole

and I fell into the center
of the earth, I wouldn't die.

- But you
were still scared.

- Yeah,
isn't that weird?

It's like, I'm afraid of dying,

but I'm already dead,
so why am I afraid?

- When do you
think it's gonna wear off?

-  I don't know.

It's kind of a spooky thought.

You know what's a
really spooky thought?

- What?
- That Chucky doll.

Oh, I was thinking about what
if him and Freddy Krueger

had to have dinner together.

Think about all the messed
up things they'd talk about.

- I wouldn't want to
be in the table next to that.

I'd have nightmares.

You're not gonna believe this,

absolutely will
not believe this.

Guess what they had.

- You see that guy?

- Do I see who?

- Do you see that
guy right there?

- Yeah, I see him.

Guess what they had, you're
not gonna believe this.

- What?

- Guess.

They had hair bleach,
isn't that crazy?

A gas station
having hair bleach,

have you ever heard of that?

That's so crazy.

Yeah, I got it though.

Isn't it crazy.

Wait, why did I close the door?

Okay.

All right.

Dude, it's cold as
a dog out there.

Ready to go?

- Thank you.

- Okay, you ready?

Oh, look at this, what the hell?

Just, this is great.

This is like the first time

a place has been better
than it's photos.

Who's taking these photos?

This is amazing.

What the, I thought this
place was gonna be a dump.

You know what this place
reminds me of reminds me of?

It reminds me of something
vintage or like old.

I guess that's the same thing.

I don't know what
I mean by that.

Okay, what is this?

- What is that?

- "Welcome to Horse Heaven."

Is that what they
call this place?

"Instruction for the cabin.

"Make sure both sets
of keys are placed

"in the back of the key
box before leaving."

Okay, I could do that.

"First aid, flashlight and
lantern in the kitchen drawer."

Okay, I guess it's
just one of those.

"This is normally
a family cabin.

"A lot of the horse
trinkets are exact replicas

"of our beloved horses.

"Most notably Mr. Blueberry
on the living room credenza."

What the hell?

So be careful around that.

"These are extremely
precious items to us,

"so please treat our belongings
with the utmost respect."

Okay, gotcha, I can do that.

You think this
place has a bathtub?

I would love to take
a bath right now.

If they care so much
about Mr. Blueberry,

why'd they leave him behind?

- I don't know.

Yeah, they get a bathtub.

I'm taking a bath.

Okay, where's my stuff.

Oh wait, I didn't bring
my stuff in, stupid.

What's up pal?

- Hey, dude.

- Are you good?

- I'm good.

I really appreciate that we get
to spend this time together.

- Right.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, me too.

- I guess I just got a lot
going on right now, you know.

- Yeah man, I get it.

It's.

- I mean you don't but.

- No, I mean like I, sorry,

I understand that you're
going through a lot

and then, but also like
I'm going through a lot,

but I think right now,

I think we need to look on
the bright side of things.

Like you have someone to talk
to, which is really good.

But I guess what I'm trying
to say is I understand.

- Don't say that.

- What's that?

- Don't say that you understand.

You have no fucking clue about
me or what I'm going through.

So don't say that
you understand.

-  What is going on man?

I'm getting the fuck outta here.

- Clay.

- No, stay away from me dude,
you're freaking me out out.

Ow God dammit.

Fuck.

You're freaking me out, dude.

- Why?

- Because you just
turned the power off

with your weird powers, dude.

- I did not do that, man.

- Yes, you did, dude.

How else did it happen?

- I don't know, maybe a
critter chewed on a cord man,

a lot of things could happen.

- No, every time you get angry,

something fucking weird happens.

Like the time the plate
crashed down my kitchen,

the power just now
and that one time

that guy got sucked
off in the alley.

- I don't know how I did that.

- So you admit it, you admit
that you sucked the guy off?

- No, I,

yes, no, I mean,

I admit that the three of
us went into the alleyway

and that guy got sucked off.

I don't know how it happened,
I don't know who did it,

but yes, it did happen.

But you gotta admit on
the scale of scary shit

that's going on right
now, this isn't that bad.

- It's really bad, dude.

It's so fucking scary, man.

- I don't think
you're actually scared.

- I'm spooked as hell.

- I think you're
making it all up.

I think you are
using being scared

as an excuse to bail on me.

I'm the one that's scared.

Do you know what
it's like being me?

I could end up a ghost on
the side of the freeway

for the rest of my life,

or whatever that means.

That's scary.

If you were really scared,

you would've just run off
into the woods just now.

- No, it would hurt my feet,
I need to get my shoes, okay.

- Well, okay, fine, then you
would've gotten in your car,

you would've driven away,

you wouldn't have
left the door opened,

you sure as hell wouldn't
have grabbed your hoodie

on the way out.

- It's like fucking 10
below out here, dude.

I don't wanna freeze.

- I just, I hate that
you think I'm scary, man.

I'm not scary, I'm your pal.

- Okay.

I'll admit that maybe I have
some trust issues, okay.

And just friend
issues in general.

But you have to admit, man,

you do fucking spooky
shit all the time

and I just don't know
how to respond, okay.

Can you admit that?
- Yes, deal, I admit it.

It's just embarrassing, dude.

It's embarrassing that I
can't control this shit.

I'm sorry.

Like I want to be just
like pals again, you know,

I just want to like
hang out or whatever.

I don't want you
to be afraid of me.

Let's go back inside.

Let's try to figure out
how to turn the lights on.

- Okay.

Yeah, no, hi, so I turned
the breaker back on,

but I'm curious if there's
like a security system

I need to reset or anything.

No.

That's, okay.

- Just hang up.

- No, everything's fine.

It's just the thing that I.

- Dude, just hang up.

-  My fucking horses.

No, I.

- They
got Mr. Blueberry.

- Click.

- She's getting wilder.

- Yeah, just hang up.

- Okay, sorry, I'm
just, okay sorry.

Okay, thank you.

- What'd she say?

- I don't know something
about a horse, I don't.

What do you wanna do?

Wanna bleach my hair.

In heaven

Nothing will matter

Anymore

Not in a bad way

Like before

'Cause we'll be sure
that we're in heaven

Where the time moves so fast

The things we like always last

'Cause that's how
it is in heaven

And those years
spent in uncertainty

And fear were all a joke

We'll just look back
and laugh about it, ha

On the white horse

- You okay up there, pal?

Oh, you okay?

I got bad news for you, dude.

- What's that?

- Mr. Blueberries broken.

- What,
how'd that happen?

- I don't know.

I think you were karate
kicking all over the house.

- I karate
kicked that down?

- Maybe, I don't know.

Did you see all the karate
kicks you were doing earlier?

-  Yeah, I remember that.

I don't remember
kicking Blueberry.

- Well, Blueberry's broken,
right on the ground right there.

Where are you going?

Why are you looking
at me like that?

Okay, cool.

-  Goes off.

- Are you sure
you feeling okay?

- No, I'm not feeling good,

I feel drunk and I feel
like I'm gonna throw up.

You understand?

- Okay.

- Okay, so I'm gonna
go sleep, okay.

- Okay.

- You understand me?

- I understand, stop doing that.

- I'll leave the
door open for you.

- You don't gotta do
that, man, it's cold.

Well, thank you.

-  Okay.

- Thanks pal.

Hey dude.

- Oh, what's up?

- Thanks for leaving
the door open all night.

- Oh yeah, for sure.

Man, last night was, ass wild.

Yeah.
- Your hair looks really cool.

- Thanks man.

Yeah, I didn't think it was
gonna turn out so blonde,

but it just, I like it.

- Yeah it's good.
- I really do.

- Yeah.

Hey, there's something
I gotta tell you, dude.

It's stupid, but I just
need to get it off my chest.

I've been thinking
about it all night.

- Yeah?

- I know how I died.

I lied to you.

I'm not a successful actor
with unreleased projects.

- Really?

- I was just always really
cool man in high school,

like after we stopped hanging
out, I was killing it.

Everybody thought
I was so funny.

People were always telling me

that I was gonna do cool shit.

And then we graduated and I
did nothing, I just floundered.

And I became aware of that.

So I decided to save some
money up and move out here

to be an actor.

But it's fucking
hard out here, man.

It's fucking so competitive,

I couldn't even get
a job as a waiter,

'cause everybody working there

looked like a
goddamn gossip girl.

- Right.

- And so I was going broke

and I didn't know
what else to do,

so I decided I would
just play Joker

on the Hollywood Walk Of
Fame in front of Grauman's.

I was doing Heath
Ledger's Joker.

And you know, I'm
really good at it.

So there was always
a ton of people

lined up to take photos with me,

like loads of people whose days

that I was brightening
with my talent.

And it was making
me happy for a sec,

but I was still so lonely man.

Like I didn't have any friends.

None of the other actors
on Hollywood Boulevard

would hang out with me.

They were all so jealous.

Anyway, I was taking my
makeup off by my car one night

and I realized that I
had been being followed.

It was Pennywise and Deadpool.

And I don't know
why they're there,

I don't know if they
were there to rob me

or just scare the
hell outta me, but.

They beat the fuck
outta me, man.

They wouldn't stop,
just taking turns,

kicking me and punching me.

The last thing I
remember is Deadpool,

raising a crowbar over his head.

I guess he smacked the fuck
outta me, left me there to die.

- Stop, you don't have to.

Okay, please don't go
into detail, right.

Listen, I'm so sorry
what you went through.

And honestly, I should
have checked in with you,

I should have called you,

I should have even
texted you once

and I didn't and
I'm sorry, okay.

So I know none of
this is really on me,

but I think some of it I
need to take blame for.

And I'm sorry.

- Well, I'm not
saying any of this

so that you'll apologize
or anything like that,

that's not why I'm
saying this, man.

I'm just saying this
because I'm a grown up

and the way that I
acted is unforgivable.

And I promise I will never
do anything like that again.

I'll never haunt you.

I'll never do anything
like that again.

I'm so grateful that
you're my friend, dude.

Like, I'm so lucky that
I'm stuck with you.

And I think that
if we just continue

to communicate with
each other like this,

then we're gonna be cool.

'Cause we'll know
how we're feeling

. And then I can just, you know,

keep haunting you forever

until I go to heaven
or until you die.

And then we get to haunt
the world together, man.

I'm just,

I'm really lucky, dude,

I'm really lucky
that you're my friend

and that I get to haunt you and
not some dickhead back home.

- I mean dude, I mean, you're
being honest, thank you.

I just don't know what
to say, I really don't.

- It's fine.

- But hey, I'm so glad that
you opened up like this.

I think we need to be
more honest, you're right.

So I think here on out we can.

- Right.

- Yeah.

- Cool.
- So.

- What you got
going on up there?

- Oh, this will remember
Mr. Blueberry from last night?

- Oh yeah, you gonna tell
the owner you broke it?

- Oh, absolutely not.

Yeah, the goal here is not
to talk to them ever again.

So what I did was I
took Mr. Blueberry,

wrapped him up and I
put him in the attic.

And if they ever realized
Mr blueberry's gone,

I could tell 'em but until
then I'm not talking to nobody.

So, just.

- Good plan.
- Yeah.

I just don't know if
I hid it well enough.

- What's it like up there?

- I don't know,
it's like an attic,

wood beams, that
little foam stuff.

Yeah, so, I don't know.

I think I need to like find
something to put in front of it.

It's just up there.

- Yeah, I don't know, so.

- I mean, if you wanna
go up there, you can.

It's just, I don't know if
I did a good job hiding it.

- Whoa.

It's cool up here man.

Yeah.

I mean it's hidden,

a little bit, I guess.

I don't know why you would
really wanna hide it though.

Clay.

Clay man, this isn't funny dude.

Please Clay, let
me outta here, man.

Please Clay, come on,
man let me outta here.

I'm freaking out, Clay come on.

I'm sorry Clay, I'm sorry dude.

You'll never have
to see me again.

Clay, just let me outta
here, man, please.

Please Clay.

Please don't leave, Clay.

Don't leave me out here, man.

Dot leave me, Clay,
please don't leave me.

I'm sorry Clay, please.

Don't leave me, Clay.

I'm sorry man, please.

Clay, please man.

Something follows you
back from the other side

From the locked up basement
at the house of blue light

Close your eyes and you'll
fall right through the floor

There are things in
this world that are real

As your life but
you're taught to ignore

All the strength that
waits at your side

On the wings that
heave and they sigh

Painted in the
corner of your eye

Where once there were
halls and gardens

Where captains'
wives would bathe

And tattoo the names of
sailors lost to the waves

But nobody lives there anymore

In the castle in the clouds

Nobody lives there anymore

In the castle in the clouds

They'll leave you
pounding on the door
