The real story, not the fairy tale.
Damn! It's like Jill knows her sister's buried here.
"Perfect spot, yes?"
"I suppose. But, why here?" She's on to me… must've made a mistake… left a clue.
"No reason, it's like she's still here…."
"But, Laura's not here." It's a setup--she knows, she knows!
"Well, we all used to come here—her spirit, I feel it."
"It's creepy with her being murdered. What does her spirit tell you?"
"Nothing really. It just feels restless."
I see it in your eyes. Well, you won't be missing her much longer.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Jack? Jack!"
