What's going on, Claire?
Shhhh.
He killed her.
What?
He did. She's in the picture. I went over to look and she's gone. The table was set for one.
And that means he murdered his wife? This is getting ridic
No, no, no, no. The soil on the shovel, his shovel...that's clay. It's not from here, believe me, I... All right, look at this.
Our house.
No. Look! In the window.
It's a flare.
A flare?
From the sun. It's a reflection on the glass.
It's her! I'm telling you. She whispered and turned on the music. She's trying to contact me!
It's a ghost.
Where is she then?
She could be out. She could be sick in bed for all we know.
Okay. Okay. I'll bet there's...Look at this.
See?
What am I looking at?
I didn't do that.
Who did? Mrs. Feur?
Maybe. Point is...not me.
Right. And why is she here? If he killed her, why doesn't she haunt him?
She was lonely, I talked to her. Norman, I know how it looks, but
Claire, listen to me. I know you're under some strain. But there's no such thing as ghosts. They don't exist. Our neighbor did not kill his wife, and I...wait, why aren't you dressed?
Dressed?
Dinner. With Stan and his new girl.
When?
What do you mean? Claire, we talked about it. You didn't want Japanese, I said, Our first date since...
Oh.
...since Caitlin. You don't remember this?
Tonight?
Yes, tonight. We're going to be
When you do this, I swear...
...Don't get all...
...like it never even happened...
Okay, okay, I'm sure that I just...
What are you doing?
Restaurant. Let them know we're running late.
Five minutes?
You're not at the center.
I know I'm not at the center of the bridge.
We're going to be fine.
There we go.
Well, that's a relief.
I don't need a shrink.
Harvey says he's amazing.
Norman...
What can it hurt to talk to someone?
Claire, she's been a huge part of your life for seventeen years. If you weren't thrown off balance by this, then something would be wrong.
I never said I wasn't upset. Of course I'm upset. I miss her terribly. But I know what I saw and what I heard...and it wasn't some "symptom" of something...
I never said...
...and I don't think I'm some lonely, middleaged woman cracking up.
Are you lonely?
No! And I don't need a psychiatrist!
What are you doing out here?
He killed her. I'm not crazy. He killed her and
This is the Feur thing?
Yes. And he's going to get away with it.
How do you know this?
We had a seance.
Who did?
Jody and I. And she was there, Norman, she was. It scared Jody so bad she had to leave.
How did you
Jody brought a Ouija board and we summoned her.
What?
Maybe you resent how busy I've been.
What are you...? No.
You know what I've got at stake with this paper. You know that. I can't help but think that you're doing this now to hurt me, or to sabotage me somehow.
Sabotage?
Ever since the accident I've been worried that you'd been unhappy, or...
The accident...?
But then you've been so much better...
Norman, this isn't about you. This is something that's happening to me. It's not to get even...and it's not some warped bid for attention. Some strange things are happening in our house, whether you believe in them or not...
Sweetheart
No! Not sweetheart, no. I believe in what's happening. I don't want to, but I do. I guess I was foolish enough to think that would be enough for you.
Keep your voice down.
I will NOT.
Maybe you're right. Maybe I'm losing my mind...
Claire, please...
I'm sorry...
Then where is she?
...I'm pulling up, Yuri. I'll see you for dinner. Sure you won't stay?
No, it's fine. I'm fine.
Really big bed.
Do I have everything?
Yep.
Call ya later.
What?
Are you glad? I'm glad.
You know I am.
Good. You sat in front...I saw you there...
You were lost in the music...eyes closed...your chest heaving...
I felt you...looking through me...
We walked all night...
You told me that I was...
You don't remember?
When she said it, there was something familiar...but no.
You dropped a glass.
I...
