404 - The Ghost Next Door (2)

Viewer, beware.
You're in for a scare.
Goosebumps.
Hannah.
Hannah.
You know, where I come from we usually just say hello.
Danny! Look out! Ooh! Is somebody here? Hello? I guess you're Danny's mom.
I'm Hannah, your neighbor.
You're not listening to me because you're not really here.
You're a ghost too.
Hannah, hold on.
You said you lived at 49, right? Right.
burned down three years ago.
No.
Hannah, don't.
It's not safe.
You're right.
There is a ghost around here.
It's you.
I don't know what's going on around here, but I know I live in that house.
Danny, are you coming? Danny! Thanks.
Thanks a lot.
This isn't really happening.
It's not true.
It's true.
I am a ghost.
And I'm alone.
Don't be sad, Hannah, you'll always have me.
Who are you? No one.
A spirit.
Why have you been following me? I must speak with you and I didn't want to scare you.
What do you want? To help you.
To teach you.
To teach me what? How to be a ghost.
I don't understand.
Everything was normal.
I sat right over there and wrote a letter to Katie.
So you thought.
Before you knew what you were, you kept going through the motions of your life, day after day, unaware that the things around you had changed.
But now, no one can hear you.
No one can see you.
That's not true.
Danny can see me.
Stay away from him! Danny Anderson is not your concern.
But he's my friend.
You no longer have any friends.
Without me, you have nothing.
Hi.
Go away! Cool! What do you want from me? Come on, don't be so weird.
We need to talk about this.
Get out of my house.
Danny! Danny, why are you acting like this? Stay back, ok? Just stay away from us.
Garlic? What do you think I am, a vampire? Nobody, Mom.
I'm not talking to anybody.
Thanks.
Thanks a lot.
What do you want anyway? Ten minutes ago, we were friends, and now you're treating me like I'm some kind of a Ghost? Ok, so I'm a ghost.
Why are you the only one who can see me? I don't know.
Ghost rules? I need to find out why.
Will you help me? Look, Hannah, I just don't think you should be coming around here anymore.
Are you telling me to get lost? I don't need to see a doctor, Mom.
All right, that's just great.
I guess I won't be seeing you around here after all.
Nothing, Mom.
Just the wind.
Shadow.
Where are you? Come back.
I need you.
As I said you would.
Don't rub it in, ok? I'm ready to learn how to become a ghost.
Good, good.
Let's begin.
Lesson 1: Basic haunting.
First, pick your victim.
Hey, there.
Morning, Mrs.
Smith.
Here he comes.
So I see.
Are you ready? It won't work.
He'll walk right through me.
Not if you concentrate.
Ooh.
See, I told you it wouldn't work.
You're holding back.
You must concentrate harder.
Use all your energy, all your strength.
- You can do it.
- Think harder.
Yes! Ooh.
Gotta quit that coffee.
I'm so tired.
Haunting is hard work.
But you'll learn to enjoy the afterlife.
No, not like this.
What is it? I didn't come back as a ghost to pull pranks on people.
There's got to be some reason.
Danny's the only one who can see me, and I want to know why.
Nice meeting you.
Hannah, come back here.
You stay away from Danny Anderson, do you hear? Hannah? A ghost? In there? I'm telling you, I saw her.
I talked to her and everything you know, I heard about her.
She's got three heads and she plays the piano.
Freddie, don't be such a wuss.
They just make those stories up, you know, to keep little kids from going inside, and falling through the floor or something.
It's not just stories, it's true.
Yeah? So prove it.
I can't.
Nobody can see her but me.
Oh, really? How convenient.
I thought you were cool.
Come on, Freddie, let's leave little Mr.
Ghost Hunter here with his imaginary girlfriend.
Wait, maybe I can get her to do something.
Like what? I don't know.
Something ghostly.
Will you believe me then? It's a start.
Hannah.
Hannah, are you in here? Hello? Hannah? Hannah? Well, anyway, I just wanted to say I'm sorry about earlier, and getting all freaky on you.
And I kinda, you know, miss you.
And I hope you're doing ok.
I was just wondering if, uh, if you don't mind, there's these two guys outside, and they don't believe in you.
So I was thinking maybe you could do something, like haunt them or something.
No! Danny! Danny! Are you all right? Yeah, are you? Just a little tired.
I guess this old place is worse than it looks.
I guess.
You better go.
Hannah, I wanted to ask you something.
I know, you want me to do things for your friends out there.
Would you? Not right now, ok? You gotta leave.
- Well when? - Just get out of here.
Now! All right.
Jeez.
First you saved my life and now you're yelling at me.
I'll never figure out girls.
Why did you do that? Why did you interfere? To save my friend's life? It's too late.
What is that supposed to mean? His destiny is set.
You cannot change it.
Why do you wanna hurt Danny? You wanted to know why he alone can see you.
Hannah.
Because by midnight tonight, he is destined to leave the land of the living, and I will at last have a shape, a body like you.
I will become a ghost, and there's nothing you can do to stop me.
And the beam fell and she pushed me out of the way.
What? You got two strikes against you, man.
First, you play chicken with the mailman and almost wind up part of the pavement.
Second, you go on a simple ghost-finding mission, and what do you know, no ghost.
We're gonna have to have a meeting about this.
Frederick.
Get over here.
Ok, we've decided to give you one more chance to prove yourself worthy of hanging out with us, the coolest guys in town.
Are you ready? I don't know, guys, it's getting kinda late.
Hey, this is a one-time only offer.
Take it or leave it.
What is it? Stink bomb.
Guaranteed to turn your home or office into a stinking sewer of rotten eggs and dead fish.
That's right.
The smell, it never goes away.
And we're going to give you the honor of setting it off.
Setting it off on who? Um, who tried to run you over the other day? You want me to stink bomb the mailman? No one can be an official member of this neighborhood until they mess with Chesney.
It's kind of like the law around here.
Now to make things even easier for you, Freddie has found Chesney's address.
Oh, here it is.
Careful, it's got It's got a gummy stuck on it.
So, what do you say? Are you ready to make town history? Danny was the only one who could hear me.
Danny! Look out! He was the only one who could see me.
Danny! And he's had one too many close calls.
Where do you think you're going? I figured it out.
I know why I came back, not to be throwing mailbags around or scaring people, I came back to save Danny's life.
There's nothing you can do.
Danny Anderson will be gone tonight.
And I will take his form.
But if it was gonna happen anyway, then why did you push that rafter? Don't question me, Hannah.
It's because you're lying, isn't it? Danny's not supposed to be gone tonight.
Admit it, you can't wait to become Danny.
You're just trying to speed things up.
You're trying to get rid of him.
That's enough! You have much to learn, child.
I don't need you to teach me how to be a ghost.
I am a ghost! And you can't stop me.
Danny, are you here? Danny? Great.
Where are you? "Mr.
Chesney, Why is he going to Mr.
Chesney's? "Take one pill every four hours.
" Yeah.
Sure.
Yeah.
Ok.
Now all we gotta do is wait till he's asleep.
Hey, what Uh Come on.
Come on.
Anybody Anybody, uh, down there? Anyone? I, uh, I should warn you, I, uh, I study karate.
Beauregard.
You naughty little munchkin.
You gave me quite a turn.
When did you get so clumsy? Heaven sakes.
Having yourself a bit of time tonight, were you? Take it easy, tabby.
Oh, for heaven sakes.
Well, let's get some shut-eye.
Help! Fire! Mr.
Chesney, wait.
Is Danny in there? It's over, Hannah.
You can't help him now.
I win.
No.
No, you don't.
Danny? Danny, are you in here? No! I've gotta get you out of here.
It's no use.
I don't have enough strength to lift you.
Danny! Danny, wake up! Oh, my goodness! D-do you hear that? There's someone inside.
Please.
Thank you.
Oh! Hello? Anybody Oh.
Oh, no! Come on.
Oh, my God! Somebody call a doctor.
You're gonna be all right.
It's It's gonna be ok, son.
Just take it easy, Danny.
Just try to lay still, huh? It's after midnight.
Do you hear that? It's after midnight, and he's gonna be all right.
You lose.
You lose! No! Hannah, I can't see you anymore.
Danny, I'm right here.
Hannah, Hannah, where are you? Hannah? Goodbye, Danny.
Hannah? Hannah.
You've done a good job, honey.
It's time to come home.
Yeah, I'm ok.
Goodbye, Danny.
Thank you, Hannah.
Just a friend, Mom.
I'm just talking to a friend.
