Ghosts

You made out with Patience?

Puritans don't do casual hookups.

She probably thinks we're engaged now.

I believe that we shouldst be together.

Yeah, but... different worlds.

Oh, but that can be remedied. I have met your friends,

and you can meet my people.

-Where is this going? -Trevor Lefkowitz,

allow me to introduce you to The Others.

Oh, nice to meet you, The Others.

Hey, I'm Bruce, and this is Brother Richard,

my beautiful wife Sunrise

and her husband Male Number 28.

Sometimes people call me Ted.

So, is this like some sort of cult?

Oh, we don't like that word.

It's not a cult, it's a family.

Great legs, by the way.

Oh, thanks. Died on leg day.

- Like to think I retained some pump. This is Trevor.

The Jewish fellow I was telling you about.

Oh, we're a monotheistic religion as well.

We worship Bruce.

Yeah, he's a guy

we met at a Cream concert,

and now he's our one true god.

The meteorite chose him.

Wait a minute. Meteorite?

Has anyone seen my glasses?

Oh, wait. Never mind.

Flower?

Bruce.

-You knoweth him? -Yeah.

He was my cult leader.

Babe, check it out.

The GEK 3000,

the most powerful

street-legal metal detector you can get.

-Okay, but why did you get this? -It's for Bimini.

All those white sandy beaches and drunk honeymooners,

I find two wedding rings, the trip is paid for.

Oh, that's right. You guys are leaving

for your big group trip to Bimini today.

Were you just in the bathroom?

Oh, yeah, yeah. New thing I'm doing.

- You know, I was thinking about it... Hey, babe.

It's got an injection-molded grip.

Sorry, Pete's just explaining why he still uses the bathroom.

- Yeah, I'll hold for that. - Yeah, back when

I was alive, sure, going to the bathroom

served a practical function,

but it was also just a nice little break in the day.

So, you just...

-sitting in there? -Yeah. You know,

why let the fact that I can't metabolize food

or produce feces keep me from enjoying a moment's peace?

Sam.

We got four new ghosts.

It's Bruce, and some old friends

-from my cult. -Not a cult. A family.

So, this is the Living who can see ghosts?

Yeah, and her husband.

He's just, uh, regular.

Sam, you won't believe it, this thing can detect a coin

up to 12 feet deep.

Sorry, Jay, there's a bunch of new ghosts.

One of whom is Flower's old cult leader Bruce.

Tough day to debut

the metal detector.

But where they all come from?

Thor been on property a thousand years.

Never see.

It was summer 1970.

Our community was being unfairly targeted by the authorities,

so we needed to go into hiding,

and one of our members knew about an old bunker.

A Cold War-era fallout shelter

where we'd be safe and secure forever.

There was a carbon monoxide leak

and we all died on the first night.

We chosen ones stayed behind,

but most of the family ascended to the Great Asteroid Belt.

Oh, I believe you said they went to Io,

Jupiter's third largest moon.

Right.

Richard.

- On it as usual. - Wait.

You're saying there's a bunker full of dead bodies

-on the property? -Seriously?

Well, if they've been here since the '70s,

this feels kind of like an "after Bimini" situation

to deal with, so I'm gonna go pack.

Bruce, I can't believe you're back.

We have so much to catch up on.

I'm Thor, boyfriend of Flower.

Oh. Well, nice to meet you, Thor.

You know, we have a saying in the bunker.

Boyfriends come and go,

but family is forever.

-Actually, I believe the saying... -I swear to God, Richard.

I mean, peace and love, Brother Richard.

So, what did you think of my friends?

Oh, they seem great.

Oh, good.

Then with the formality of introductions behind us,

our courtship can proceed with the intention of marriage.

Wait, marriage?

There she is.

How youse doing?

Is this the man I've been hearing so much about?

Cutie.

I'm sorry, who's this?

Oh, tis my truest friend Barbara.

We met in the dirt.

Hey, Legs, did you know your hoagie's out?

-Are you from Philadelphia? -Does a Mummer take

a leak on Two Street?

South Philly girl, born and raised.

Wow.

Ask if we want to go to the beach for dessert.

Youse want to go down the shore for some wooder ice?

Oh, my God.

You know, I once went down to the shore.

Uh, beautiful place to drown a witch.

You led the surrender from Fort Ticonderoga?

I read about that in high school, man.

That's far-out!

Well, any surrender is the work of many hands,

but I did sort of get the ball rolling

-on the whole "giving up" thing. -Hey.

It takes great courage to run away like that.

You might even be family material.

Oh, great. Hope you don't like sleeping with women.

- I don't. - Hey, guys.

Oh, hey, Isaac.

I was just sitting here when they came in.

Now we're hanging out.

They think I'm cool.

Flower,

I can't believe our heavenly souls have been reunited,

but in fact, it is just as the meteorite predicted.

All hail the meteorite, the source of all wisdom.

- Yeah, um, a-about that. - Hmm.

When I was alive, you said that the meteorite predicted

the world would end on February 13, 2025.

-Exactly. -But that day came and went

and the world didn't end.

Right, well, the thing about that is...

when I received the math from the meteorite,

I forgot to carry the one.

So, you're saying that the meteorite

didn't give you a date that the world would end,

it gave you an equation?

That's right.

Makes sense to me.

Math is hard.

Yeah.

You ready, babe? Garrett and Libby

are picking us up for the airport.

They're gonna be here any minute.

Yep, I'm ready.

Are you still bringing the metal detector?

Uh, that depends. Do you want to be

the most popular people on this group trip?

He's got a point. Everybody wants

to talk to the guy with the metal detector.

It's a great icebreaker.

Thor use axe to break ice.

I come with news.

Flower has rejoined the cult.

Oh, no.

This very bad.

And more news.

I also got in.

Great, they're almost here. I'm gonna get the bags.

Uh, Jay, we might have to meet them at the airport.

There's a bit of a ghost situation.

Damn it.

You know, I got in on the first try.

Bruce says not a lot of people get in on the first try.

-This is awful. -Yeah, Thor thought Flower

put all that cult stuff behind her.

That car ride to the airport with Garrett and Libby

was gonna be prime bonding time.

Oh, I see, he's upset about something much more trivial.

It's about winning a group trip: the car ride bonding

leads to the airport bonding,

and by the time we're in Bimini, everyone else

is on the outside looking in at us.

I'm sorry, Jay, I'm just worried about Flower.

It's okay, we still have the metal detector.

We still have our ace in the hole.

Hello? Is anyone worried about me?

Because I also, as previously mentioned,

-got in. -Congratulations, Isaac.

Flower make so much progress.

Many say is thanks to Thor.

Not for Thor to say.

But now, Thor very worried for Flower.

Well, go talk to her, big guy.
