From Closings to Crossings: Quotes from SurrealEstate (2021) on SYFY TV
SEASON 1
EPISODE 1
Luke:
She knows where all
of the bodies are buried.
So to speak.
Luke:
Why don't you wait to
take Susan to your dark,
nihilistic places until after
she's filled out her W-4, shall we?
Luke:
The light of day can fool you.
Susan:
And your boss, Luke, is
kind of a mysterious figure
in the business. But
real estate should have
some mystery, some romance.
Don't you think?
Zoey:
For these people, it's
not just their houses,
you know, it's their lives.
Their lives have become a
Stephen King short story.
And they need someone
nice and smart to talk to.
Someone who wants to make a difference.
One house at a time.
Luke:
No problem, we just
learned some interesting things
about your house. It
would be a violation
of my sacred blood oath to
not disclose them to you.
Luke:
It's like the oath the doctors take.
It just mentions carpet more.
Luke:
There is something old and
very angry in this house.
These things,
they are like global
warming, or liver failure,
or the Easter Bunny.
Whether you believe in them or not,
they could still hurt you.
Susan:
You want me to be
your perky flight attendant
on the ethereal plane,
you're going to have
to open up a little.
Luke:
And one last thing.
Don't rule out the rational explanation.
Ever.
Phil:
No.
But I did shave a few seconds
off my best time in the 40.
Phil:
Man, from a pure emo-energy standpoint,
we're talking Tower of London
meets the Paris Catacombs with,
well, a little Wonderland
Ranch thrown in.
Susan:
We're a hormonal theme
park to begin with, and then
something short-circuits.
We flex a muscle we
didn't even know we had
and then boom!
Things move.
Susan:
And go easy with this guy.
Guys can do stuff to your head.
Make you doubt yourself.
Besides, he's-he's an opening act.
He's not a headliner.
Things get broken.
Luke:
Well, without the energy from
the open portal, he'll move on.
He's probably looking for a
ghostly mailman as we speak.
Luke:
Susan, people die.
Their souls, they pass on.
Only love and low maintenance
composite decking last forever.
Susan:
I believe it's going
to be very interesting
working for you.
Luke:
Still,
person's got to believe in something.
Don't you think?
EPISODE 2
Zoey:
You know, it's amazing
how the introduction
of just one foreign body
can disrupt one's Feng Shui.
August:
Our track record
with new employee
retention has been, um
lacklustre.
Luke:
It's like learning French.
First, you immerse yourself
in it, then you listen,
and study and, before you know it,
you're speaking it all on your own,
murdering the verbs and
giving the locals a good laugh.
August:
If one works at
Yellowstone National Park
one should not be
surprised to encounter a bear
every once in a while.
Luke:
No, it's just sometimes
these properties can
act a little differently
when your back is turned.
Luke:
I had one once I turned my back
and the central chimney
extended by six feet.
Like it was giving me the finger.
Megan:
I don't know when to believe you.
I know we faced down evil together
and tossed it a pork chop,
but I still have these
moments when I think maybe
you should be detained and studied.
Susan:
She's dead, right? Why would she lie?
Luke:
They are dangerous.
And until you learn a
little more about them,
you might want to think
about doing things our way.
Luke:
I still don't have that many friends.
But the ones I do?
The ones I do have are
really, really good.
And that's the way it's
going to be with you.
I can tell.
Luke:
It is a mask!
A disguise for something so powerful
that it could kill you.
Luke:
You need to trust me
or go work somewhere else
Somewhere where the barriers to a sale,
they don't come with
so many sharp teeth.
Susan's mom
Oh, this isn't about
lowering your standards, love,
It's about opening your heart.
Let them see who you really are.
I bet they'll like her.
Phil:
You must be careful.
If this is
what I think it is,
it is old,
it is cunning.
It also has an ego and
is easily distracted.
Use that.
But remember
it only exists to
inflict pain and sorrow.
And it sees you coming.
Luke:
No, you'd rather play kids' games.
Games you can win.
That's really pathetic.
Susan:
You played a minor, yet
integral role yourself.
Luke:
I'm just happy to help the ballclub.
I didn't even mind when
you called me a flake.
EPISODE 3
William Larson:
I have a story
that needs to flow out of me.
And that cannot happen
unless the environment I am in
lets that flow
remain uninterrupted.
William Larson:
Then tomorrow
you had better show
me the most messed-up,
walls bleeding, chain rattling,
Bloody-Mary-in-the-mirror
haunted houses in twelve states,
or I will be taking my business
elsewhere.
William Larson:
I want a house
that's gonna make Amityville
look like the house on Pooh Corner.
I want a house
where every night is
going to be Halloween
and where every day is going to be
Dias de los Muertos.
Zoey:
Next time, consider trusting me.
William Larson:
We don't seem to be clicking, do we?
Perhaps it's time for some
fresh blood, so to speak.
Luke:
Listen to what you're saying.
"We." "Us." Plural.
I'm all for picking your pronouns,
but it feels as if someone is using you
as their Bluetooth speaker.
August:
He's not. Which is perfect,
seeing how we are spelunking
the dark crevices of his personal life.
I don't spelunk.
Susan;
I owe you an apology.
I was dismissive and condescending.
It is a flaw in my character
and I am working on it.
Zoey:
I contain multitudes.
Thanking You.....
Grammy:
I lived in the past.
But one can't turn back time.
And so, with that lovely melody
playing in my head
I said goodbye to this world.
And it was only in the next
that I learned the awful truth
of what I'd done.
That none of us who love this place,
or slept in its water, could move on
until that melody was turned back.
Grammy:
I had no idea that
my final act of despair would
keep you all trapped here.
Susan:
He spent a few seconds in
there and came out looking like
a vegan at Sizzler. What was ?
Luke:
That was my house. I grew up there.
I had a lot of unusual friends.
They couldn't all come
with me to college.
Susan:
I look forward to reading about them
in broad daylight. With the light on.
Susan:
Life is short.
And sometimes you gotta
step up and close escrow
before you get beat
out by a better offer.
Luke's Ghost Mother:
I knew it was you the second that
Oh, the stories we tell ourselves.
You probably had some demented fantasy.
Luke's Ghost Mother:
My only fantasy was that
I'd never see you again.
Luke:
Just the first in a series
of crushing disappointments,
culminating about 73 seconds ago.
Luke's Ghost Mother:
And you're the one seeking the truth
for everyone else,
helping others with
their unfinished business
and yet, somehow,
you can't even face your own.
EPISODE 4
Susan:
There is always a tiny hiccup or two
moving into a new place.
These hiccups are temporary,
but the ocean outside
your window is forever.
August:
Houses are built to live
in and not to look on;
therefore, let use be
preferred before uniformity.
August:
We are looking for wandering souls
in a soulless environment.
Hardly seems productive.
Phil:
It's a creepshow that dares to
look like a creepshow, right?
Luke:
This is why we don't have H.R.
Zoey:
He can duct tape a KitchenAid
mixer to a walkie talkie
and use it to summon a
Sumerian trickster God. And me?
Well, it's self-explanatory.
Susan:
I'm a closer.
That's another way of saying I'm profit.
You're overhead.
Bernard Nightingale:
I designed it
for her.
My fiancée.
Every inch,
every corner.
Just for her.
Bernard Nightingale:
Every one of them a knife.
A knife stabbing into my guts.
Bernard Nightingale:
This house full of misery.
So anybody who ever lives here
is gonna be miserable, too.
It's my pain, but they're gonna goddamn feel it!
August:
This should allow you to instantly
render the entity to
irreparable particles.
Death beyond death.
If the moment comes,
don't hesitate.
Zoey:
Soul mates are
purely mythical beasts.
Like Bigfoot.
Susan:
There could be some
pheranormal Phermanomal
There could be some
spookies I need to observe.
Phil:
She looks so peaceful.
Almost like she's dead.
Susan:
So, if the vengeful
sailors don't fill our lungs
with seawater and kill
us, the influencers
will unleash their Twitter mob.
Zoey:
If this were a movie,
this is where I'd bring in
Eternal Flame by The Bangles.
Luke:
The solution is simple. It's
not easy, but it's simple.
Luke:
Before you go to sleep at night
you might want to take an
extra look under your bed.
Susan:
I'm glad you didn't molecularly
deconstruct a sad old man.
He moved on so easily.
Unfinished business.
Luke:
Principle isn't a principle
until it costs you something.
Luke:
I realize that living
in the past is toxic.
I spend my days trying to
help lost souls move on.
Maybe I should take my own advice.
EPISODE 5
Luke:
What a serene,
inspiring environment to nurture
the muse of a creative artist.
Luke:
There's something still here.
Felt youth. Innocence.
A whole lotta lonely.
Sister Yasmin:
It's time to wake a few sleeping dogs.
Luke:
You gotta tune a Stradivarius
before you play it, right?
Well, you are a Strad, man.
You are the ultimate
Strad of your generation.
And we?
We gotta tune the room to you.
And that takes a little time.
Phil:
It's Mozart's Requiem.
The Lacrimosa.
It was, like, a Thursday night and
they were having choir practice.
And so I walked in.
There wasn't a powerful electric shock
when I touched the door handle,
so I took that as a good sign.
And I'm sitting there in the back pew
and I just let the music wash over me.
I hadn't heard it since I, um
since I left.
And I was surprised how it
helped.
I felt better.
Gave me strength and
And comfort.
You could've taken that away from me.
I'm really glad that you didn't.
Phil:
I miss feeling like
somebody's in charge.
Like our destinies
are being crafted by somebody kind
and benevolent
and wise.
Luke:
You are in touch with something
very real and very special here.
It's the raw, childlike creativity
that we're all born with
before the world takes it away.
You run away from it now, you might never, ever find it again.
Luke:
But the thing about moms is,
they never stop being your mom.
And you gotta believe me because
I know a little bit about this.
Even when they're away,
they're still still kind of there.
Luke's Father
Must be grueling,
lifting those
big pens,
pushing 'em across pages all day.
EPISODE 6
Zoey:
They're like bunnies
in cosmetics testing
you just know something
terrible's going to happen to them.
Catherine:
People are such snobs about
their precious Pernambucos
but carbon fiber provides the perfect
blend of flexibility and strength.
I suppose the murderer proved that.
Susan;
God, Zooey, it's like you have
some strange, hypnotic power
over these poor boys.
Thank goodness you're using
it for good and not evil.
Luke:
She likes to keep to her schedule.
Yeah, she has to.
Gotta take a lot out of you, structuring
destinies to smite your enemies.
Luke:
The truth can be dumb.
But that doesn't stop it
from being, you know, true.
Luke:
Now, see, if you would have said that,
it would have come off
all brilliant and ironic.
Luke:
The house had marked you somehow.
Now she's aware of where you are.
Probably not a constant awareness.
I mean, structuring events.
Luke:
Watchmakers need everything
in sequence, in order.
August:
Imagine a computer with a
spinning wheel that never ends,
searching for an answer
it can never find.
An electronic stroke.
in the mind? That's one thing.
EPISODE 7
August:
Who would like to
accompany me to witness
any horrid transformations
that might take place?
Zoey
It's like
Marie Curie/ Edgar Allen Poe
gave birth to Steve Jobs and we're
looking inside of its brain.
August:
It must be difficult to
focus when you're always
busy trying to formulate
your next ironic remark.
Luke:
I was so eager to believe that
everything would be all right
that I ignored that voice in my ear.
Rather lazy intellectually, though.
Susan:
Some of you believe in other things.
Odd things, amazing things, beyond imagination.
You've opened my mind
and that's never a bad thing.
EPISODE 8
Zoey:
Congratulations on your
low threshold for happiness.
August:
It knows me.
And I think
it likes me.
It seems to be
telepathically reading our desires
and then leveraging
them to keep us here.
Megan (Possessed Roadie):
This house,
it's a feast!
So much pain and
confusion and heartbreak.
You took two of my lives,
but now
I'm home.
Luke:
You start needing people, they need you.
You get attached, bonded
and it gets complicated.
And one day you just
You lose them.
Luke:
Death is a part of life.
Usually the quiet part.
Luke:
We gotta be who we are.
No faking it.
We are built for a particular job.
EPISODE 9
Luke:
These dead souls, they hate change.
They're stuck here like a bug in amber
and a lot of them resent
the ones they left behind
move on with their lives,
change addresses, get married.
August:
But I have to believe that it was you
that brought him into this weird,
awful little world full of death and
monsters and things that
don't make any empirical sense.
Phil:
The groom is carrying some serious
metaphysical baggage.
Phil:
Oh, I love it. It's like existentially Googling your exes.
August:
He walks an odd, often lonely path.
I'm so glad you've chosen to walk it with him, for however long.
Ruby:
If being old is a gift,
I'd like to give it back.
Ruby:
But, still, a broken promise can be a powerful thing.
EPISODE 10
Megan:
The things I've seen
these past few months
feel like one big hallucination:
a fever dream.
House:
This night has been a very long time in the making.
House:
When you closed it,
all those poor souls just
lingered on here.
Their presence
gave me a power beyond what
I had ever imagined before.
They created chaos.
I adore chaos.
And emotion, love,
sadness, longing, regret.
I feast on them.
House:
Your gifts make you a somewhat
unpredictable adversary.
House:
They're all enjoying lovely
little reunions of their own,
inspired by yours.
I can only hope they'll all be as
Complicated.
August:
If I had known how
little time we'd have,
I would have spent
every minute with you.
Father Diaz:
If recent history teaches us anything,
it is that perversion is not
exclusionary to the calling.
House:
I now realize that
some of our worst fears
are not about hell
beasts and nightmares. No!
They're centered on the
ones we loved and lost.
Did we fail them?
Disappoint them?
Will we ever love again?
And worst of all:
were we ever really
loved in the first place?
Zoey:
You just blinked out like a Christmas light, or a dead star.
Kyle:
That was some real
four-dimensional chess
I was playing there.
House:
You taught me that fear flashes bright
and fades quickly.
But despair
Despair is a slow and painful burn.
Phil:
Fascinating, metaphysically complex,
yet ultimately harmless.
And now I find myself
in a very dark place,
made even darker
by how wrong we were.
Father Diaz:
We spent so much time on the
ancient rites of exorcism.
Maybe we should have done a refresher
on the vow of celibacy.
House:
A slow, painful burn.
It just never goes away.
August:
Or, perhaps, we all leave here
now and live to fight another day.
August:
When that portal reopens,
the pressure will suck in every extranormal entity like a Roomba in an ant farm.
Luke's Dead Twin Sister:
And you got to live.
Nearly 37 years experiencing love, joy,
pain, trauma, regret.
All I got was darkness and loss.
But we are still connected, you and I.
Luke's Dead Twin Sister:
We have a link, the connection only twins can share.
Luke's Dead Twin Sister:
She had one job!
I loathed her weakness,
her failure to bring me
safely into the world.
And, later,
it just became a giggle.
Luke's Dead Twin Sister:
A constant song of rage and regret
playing in her head over and over.
Luke's Dead Twin Sister:
It's only fair.
36 years to drink in all of the sensations
and emotions that come with being alive.
And, unlike you, I shall revel in them!
August:
It's better to burn out than fade away.
Susan:
Moving things around,
the fires
It always felt like this
shameful,
secret thing that only
happened when I was
upset or
or scared.
Susan:
Tonight, for the first
time in my entire life,
I I really felt like
I was in control.
It was precise.
It was not emotional. It was
Tactical.
And, honestly, it was a rush!
It was fun!
Luke:
Tell me a joke.
Rattle a chain, knock a ten-pin over
Anything.
'Cause I'm not sure I can
handle losing you again.
SEASON 2
EPISODE 1
Luke:
Some agencies, they help their clients
sell their houses by reducing clutter.
We help them by stopping
the walls from bleeding.
Susan:
These final negotiations
are always a little
tricky.
August:
I find nothing funny about
our current situation.
Nothing electrical seems to work.
Looks like we have
to do this old school.
Susan:
I believe the right
house is like a soulmate.
You can look at a thousand other houses
but when the right one
comes along, you know.
And it's magic.
Zoey:
It's like
it's like a big, angry
bear and with this kitchen,
your house is Leonardo
DiCaprio waving a stick.
August:
I know this agency was
founded on Luke's ability
to see these things,
talk with them, reason with them,
even when they didn't feel like it.
A difficult gift to
replace with technology.
August:
There has to be something more
efficient here than Scrabble tiles.
And yet they came through.
Susan:
Not every house has to be a horror show.
Susan:
I thrive on being busy. Always have.
I'm living my best life.
Zoey:
Yeah, they have gamma rays on vegetables.
Zoey:
When shit gets real and
your walls start to bleed,
they generally call on
Mister Ripley and myself.
Phil:
They say it's only a matter of time
and finding the right situation.
Luke:
You know, Jeopardy is
a lot more challenging
without the voices whispering
the answers in my ear.
Susan:
A reminder that the wonders
of modern life come with danger.
Susan:
Because home is the one place
where you should always feel safe.
August:
I work in real estate.
I'm perfectly aware of what
a middle finger looks like.
Writer:
You know how I like to
start every new novel
in a new and fresh place. I mean,
if you cannot frighten
your own willy off you
from time to time to prove to yourself
that you're still
fogging up the mirror, eh?
Luke:
You know, it feels really ironic.
The things you do Did.
The things you saw and talked to.
Those were the things
that I struggled with.
And, now, they're um
They're kinda gone.
And you're leaving too.
Megan:
Thank you for making
my world so much bigger.
Luke:
There's something about toys
that works particularly well.
Possibly their simplicity
and playful appearance
create a rapport with
those on the other side.
EPISODE 2
Doug:
Some people like the idea
of moving into a haunted house.
In my experience,
they are fine with the idea.
Susan:
Sometimes the truth is
mean.
Director:
The shovel sounds are all wrong. It
It is supposed to sound
like a girl unearthing
her rotting father,
ready to feast on him.
It sounds like you're planting azaleas.
Kit:
Worst part is the silence.
Willa Stans:
Oh, it's it's it's
so nice to meet someone
who appreciates the, you know,
game of telephone that history plays.
Willa Stans:
So often people just want the gossip.
They rarely want the truth.
Phil:
Legends are a lot sexier than the truth.
Susan:
They value the authenticity
the hunka-chunka brings to the table.
Susan:
You're offering a unique
combo of glamping and
humping.
EPISODE 3
Susan:
Why do all of August's machines
look like what people in 1953
thought machines in
1997 would look like?
Luke:
Apparently the other
side is way more sensitive
to the analog stuff than the digital.
August:
The man's a carnival ride
with a loose bolt on a
tight downhill turn.
Phil:
And it always gets my
attention when things rhyme.
Think my mother was
traumatized by a greeting card
when I was in utero.
Tolliver:
Some mistakes you never stop paying for.
Zoey:
Just don't mess with his hair.
It's like a World Heritage Site.
Luke:
Susan, if we learned
anything in the past few days,
that everybody sees everything
through their own lens.
They rationalize. They prevaricate.
Susan:
A woman in business,
working twice as hard
to get half as far. I see you!
You got used by a lot of men.
Susan:
Granted, the age
difference and power dynamic
could have been a lot better, but
he didn't want anything from you.
Except you.
Susan:
I was enveloped by him,
controlled by him and
called it a relationship.
And now I'm here working
for you and it's starting
to feel like the second
verse of a really shitty song.
Susan:
Try, just really dig deep
and endeavor to imagine a world
where it isn't all about you.
EPISODE 4
Luke:
This cabin in the woods is
creating more drama than the million dollar property.
Zoey:
This is like an Oscar Wilde
play about mistaken identity.
They're pretending to shop for a house
and I'm pretending this isn't a complete waste of my time.
Zoey:
Yeah, just testing the
fence for weak spots.
Like a velociraptor.
Kay Bozer:
My nights are full and rich,
so I like to eat early.
When there was only one set
of footprints in the carpet,
that's when you were carrying me.
Luke:
Feels creepy wearing a
metaphysical nicotine
patch on our first date.
August:
Science is often creepy.
August:
You strike me as an oasis of pragmatism
in a place obsessed with fantasy,
like the last personal injury attorney in a
hastily assembled amusement park.
August:
I focused on the primacy of the individual and of individual concerns
above any abstract reality or grand metaphysical system. Still couldn't sell a
salmon to a grizzly bear.
August:
I focused on what they deeply needed,
not what they said they wanted
because seldom are they the same thing.
Kay Bozer:
They've seen a lot.
Most men your age our age
still have the eyes of adolescent boys.
Zoey:
You need to be safe.
You need to be happy. You need sunshine.
But most of all, you need
to come home every night
and close the door against the world
in a house that loves you back.
I bet you can be terribly persuasive.
To the point of irresistibility.
Kay Bozer:
Boys are a dime a dozen.
Dime a dozen.
Boys are like wine
that just went into the barrel.
Just went into the barrel.
They haven't become complex
complex, or interesting.
They're just an amalgam of chemicals.
EPISODE 5
August:
We had everything but time.
August:
An arrogant young man
shaking his fist at the darkness.
Luke:
Every house is a
living, breathing thing.
Some more than others.
Client painter:
The brush in my hand
had a sense of purpose
I'd never felt.
I don't know if you
could call it confidence,
but it was peace.
I truly became an artist here.
It's like I could fly.
Rochelle:
Just because you're used to
doing things a certain way,
doesn't mean you can't
move on from that,
do the same thing just as well.
Only differently.
Client painter:
Became my own little
monument to my existence.
Something bigger than me to
prove I couldn't be erased.
Luke:
Eventually, you stand on one foot, and you squint,
starts to look a lot like destiny.
August:
I don't recall us
ever gazing into each
other's eyes and
murmuring sweet root
passwords to one another.
August:
I saw
nothing.
I saw
everything.
I saw life
and what comes after
from the cold
logical perspective of a machine
that can never live nor die.
August:
I saw Orion
echoing with spirits
crying through eternity.
Atoms warping with the weight of souls
striving to be reborn.
All parts of the celestial
ellipses, the astral ouroboros.
In the end,
Erebuster showed me
there are no answers,
only deeper, more
wonderful questions.
That the best we can do is
stop worrying about death
and focus on life, on
on living.
Luke:
A monument to her existence.
Something bigger than her to
prove she couldn't be erased.
Luke:
It's always the question, isn't it?
How much of ourselves
do we owe to others?
Where do they leave off and we begin?
Susan:
Change is seldom easy.
But there comes a time
when change is necessary.
I find that time is now.
EPISODE 6
August:
It's fine to wander when you're young.
Noble, even.
But one must eventually choose a path
and follow it to the end
because old wanderers
lack direction, purpose.
August:
My sense of common decency
tells me the Masseys
should be sealed in a
bell jar and studied!
Rita Weiss:
You recognize the ultimate
futility of it all.
The trick is to identify
what we can change
and what we can't.
EPISODE 7
Lomax:
Number one, I know what you guys do.
Number two, I currently
sew dead people's lips shut
and scoop out their guts
like a Halloween pumpkin,
so whatever kind of
"weird" you got is
a lateral move at best.
May only be temporary.
Everything's temporary.
August:
The cast changes regularly,
but the story is pretty consistent:
There is something in the house
making it hard for us to sell
and we make it go away.
Luke:
You can ignore it.
But it's always there
because it's a part of you.
It's where you came from.
And until you confront it,
it's your unfinished business.
EPISODE 8
Lomax:
No, seriously, everybody talks about
doing something they love.
My advice? Do something
you're really good at.
Love is for the weekends.
Phil:
Legends become legends for a reason.
Luke:
You know, I should probably
thank you for hitting me
with the big guns early on.
Because every little bump
along the road ever since?
Seemed pretty manageable by comparison.
Luke's mother:
I spent every day all alone with
two strangers: You and me.
And the more I saw you
figuring out the world
the more I just felt it slipping away.
EPISODE 9
Luke:
Universe is a freaky place.
Phil:
It's the ones that don't
look like Castle Dracula
that worry me the most.
Luke:
Because when you love somebody
you want them to be
happy, no matter what.
Even if they're happy
with somebody else.
Zayan:
I thought I loved you
so much that I, uh
I couldn't let you go.
Now I know I love you
so much that I can.
Zoey:
I can actually help people.
I can afflict the comfortable,
but comfort the afflicted.
Luke:
To be honest,
the thought of you with a
law degree is terrifying.
EPISODE 10
Rochelle:
August, you can't be happy
duct taping a VCR to a
a blender so you can
frappé some evil spirit
and calling it science.
Susan:
A real estate agent who
hangs around the office
has no reason to live.
Lomax:
Darkest motivational poster ever.
Thomas Rabbitfoot:
It wants permanence.
It wants somebody to move in and stay.
It wants to be a part
of somebody forever!
Phil:
I'm an exorcist! Augie is a scientist!
Luke is a specialist!
Zooey's an anarchist!
One of us has to be
right about something!
Luke:
I've come to understand
the danger and futility
of holding onto something too tight.
Even
something you love.
So, just so you know,
wherever you go from here,
there is something about home.
And this is home.
SEASON 3
EPISODE 1
Zoey:
What'd you do that for? I was so close.
Always defer to the person in your face
before the person on the
phone. It's why they gave you
a hold button instead of a handgun.
August:
My point is,
we should be focused on
the advancement of mankind, not its annihilation.
Man 5:
You know I think that flipping a house
is very much like dressing up a dead body for an open casket service.
August:
What a charming place
for a clandestine meeting.
It's quickly turning
into our satellite office.
Practically next door. It's
like a second conference room with cold beer on tap.
August:
But in my dark nights of
the soul, I realize that,
in the end, it's
it's just the same.
August:
To do so again would be to
admit I have learned nothing.
That is weakness.
Something I loathe in myself.
Cowboy:
And I went somewhere where
dreams come true.
You can live the life
that you might'a had.
Cowboy:
But I had to come back and tell you
live your dreams.
Don't die with them.
Zoey:
Stop trying to replace us.
You know, find some new
talent, give 'em some love
for who they are instead
of expecting them to be
Well, us.
Megan:
Everyone's evolving.
Making bold moves forward.
And here you are.
EPISODE 2
Rochelle:
Same old story:
A woman comes home
early and catches her man
with a microwave.
August:
Why build a magnetron
when one can simply borrow
from the people who brought
us the six-minute baked potato?
August:
It's like asking a prizefighter
trying to make weight
to hand over his spleen.
Must be nice to play in
the big leagues again.
Tyler:
Our society, we tend to just
put people in a box.
We just put them in a box
and toss them out when
we're done with them.
Just toss them right out,
into whatever. Sink or swim, right?
Mitch (Father of Possessed son):
I was paying the price of immortality.
It turns out that the price was higher.
Luke:
Apparently, we have
a better chance
catching wind with a net.
August:
I've learned over time
this demon-extraction
business is very bespoke.
One size does not fit all.
August:
But standing here with you both
staring down the unknown
and the unspeakable
It just feels right.
August:
I helped save the life
of a nice young man, so
Yes.
It was actually the most
worthwhile thing I've done
in some time.
LUKE:
I guess some people
are irrationally terrified
by your filing system.
EPISODE 3
August:
I was reminded of,
and humbled by the
awesome inspirational power
of unlimited funding
unburdened by supervision
and accountability
Death:
The oldest reason in the world.
I need a favor.
Luke:
You got a whole
universe waiting for you.
What are you doing in
this musty old house?
Luke:
There's a ton of bad
people in the world.
Just take one of them.
Or somebody old.
Somebody that already lived a good life.
Come on.
After all the souls
I've brought across
You owe me one.
Luke:
The time is never right.
But it's always
the time.
Luke:
He will never forget
the strong woman who made him strong.
Sure, someday he'll stop hurting.
Hopefully before too long.
But forget you?
Nope.
Never.
Susan:
Yesterday, I got chased through a field
by a, a vengeful farmer ghost couple
and nearly decapitated by a big, sharp,
rusty, cutting thingy
and that still wasn't
the worst part of my day.
EPISODE 4
Lomax:
Plus, monocles are super dashing. Hm.
I'm sure the monopoly guy has
to fight them off with a shovel.
Susan:
Losing her really felt like losing home.
Think that's why it feels
so good to do this now.
You know, it connects me with her.
Susan:
Nothing sells a house like a story
Luke:
Well, that phrase should
be on our business card.
Susan;
Give yourself some time.
Live and breathe.
Before being trapped and boiled alive.
Tag:
The little girl was named summer,
which is kind of ironic
because she had anything
but a sunny life.
EPISODE 5
Paul:
It's like leaving a painting unfinished.
Susan:
I hate to see you waiting for something
that's not going to happen.
Blake:
Enjoy the garden, Jan.
It's as close to creating
the world as we ever get.
Rita:
I don't ask you how
you cast your spells,
or commune beyond the veil.
Or make your hair do that.
Please don't ask me to
divulge my trade secrets.
Look upon my works and despair.
Blake:
They sit underground and wait.
Just biding their time,
waiting for something magical
to come along and coax
them out of the ground.
It's almost romantic.
Jan:
It smells like joy.
Like
It grew from a happy
memory someone planted.
Lomax:
Sometimes you have to leave
to appreciate what you left.
Paul:
Shouldn't some things
stay the same forever?
August:
But to reach the sun,
new foliage must push
aside the old growth.
It's just the way of things.
Jan:
I'm just trying to remember
why I loved you once.
August:
A child picking daisies in a field
would tell you flowers are harmless.
But the fly ensnared
in the Venus flytrap
Paul?
Might disagree.
Luke:
Cause just when I
thought you hit bottom,
you've managed to find a shovel.
Rita:
For someone in your squirmy
little niche of the business,
that's an awfully sanctimonious view
of death as a sales tool.
Luke:
Luck is not a strategy!
The story reads as folklore,
which means it has a seed of truth.
Lomax:
Coming back has been like
putting on an old hoodie:
All warm and familiar.
It just doesn't quite fit anymore.
Luke:
We are truly screwed as a species.
You know, the cockroaches,
they're gonna take over.
They're gonna move in,
figure out how to unlock doors
and they're going to
operate our small appliances.
EPISODE 6
Bob Livingston:
You're lean, you're
nimble. You're bespoke.
I'm not doing this to
get bigger, just better.
Tag:
Nothing gets your attention
like a scary guy with
a painted face and a gun
in your upstairs hallway.
It certainly sucks the thunder out of my improperly filed home
equity line of credit story.
Harry:
Never gave me a choice.
Never judged me, never
told me what to do.
Only loved me.
Me, who had been led to
believe was u lovable.
Harry:
Not every soul needs to move forward.
Not every immortal spirit
needs a kick in the ass.
Some of us just want to go
back to that moment in life
we were the happiest and just
Just be.
Luke:
You do what you do long enough,
you start thinking you know what's best.
Luke:
Heaven isn't always a
place you never been.
Sometimes.
It's the best place
you ever were.
