Can you feel it?
Our connection to the spirit world tonight is deep and powerful.
A realm of mystery and darkness just beyond our own.
We open ourselves to the spirit world
and command evil to stay outside the circle.
If the good spirit of Levi is near, then please enter the glass.
Open your eyes.
Put your fingers on.
Are you there, Levi?
How have you been, Levi?
What have you been doing since we last spoke?
Watch.
Watching?
Ask him if he's been watching us in the shower.
-You are kidding. -Why would you?
Okay. You know everything about us, right?
Like… do you know all our secrets?
You said you were stuck in limbo, right?
You… you can't move on?
What happened to you, Levi?
-Did you have a tragic death? -Gracie!
Can we just concentrate, not push the glass?
What was that?
Let…
me…
out.
-"Let me out"? -Huh?
-Let me out? -Let me out?
Let…
me…
What the fuck?
…out.
Guys?
-What the fuck, man? -Holy shit!
-What's happening? -It's an evil spirit.
-We have to end it! -What?
-End it! -We have to end it.
End it!
Shit! Oh, fuck!
Levi! Go to goodbye!
Levi! Move to goodbye! Joni!
Oh, shit. Fuck!
Joni!
-Gracie! -Don't fuck with us, Gracie!
Let me out.
Gracie!
-Who the fuck is it? -Move to goodbye, Levi!
Move to goodbye!
I thought she was out.
-Parole breach. -Shit.
Back in on Wednesday.
It's Friday. What's happened?
Bloody art program, supposed to be therapeutic.
-Drama? -Painting.
Managed to sharpen a brush. Joni's here to see you, Ivy.
I thought I'd seen the last of you.
Fuck off!
All right. Come on. Did you miss me so much you came back?
-I'll do it! -Okay.
-I'll really do it! -Hey. What has happened?
Last time I saw you, you were doing so good.
-They won't shut up! -Yeah? What are they saying?
-Just talking about me. -Yeah?
-Bitch. I need to be punished. -Remember what we said.
-You can choose not to listen. -They're not gonna stop until I do it.
Ivy, I want you to look at me, I want you to listen to my voice.
Jesus fucking Christ. Okay.
Listen, I'm not gonna let you hurt yourself, okay?
-It's all my fault! -It's not your fault, darling. Okay?
It's not your fault. We're just gonna talk.
She's all right.
Can you put the brush in my hand?
-Fuck! -Fucking do it!
-That's it. -Do it!
-Good girl. It's all good. -Do it!
This is good. It's a lovely card. This is all about success and…
-Hi. -Hiya.
-Hey, what's for dinner? -Fish and chips.
We left you some.
Didn't we have fish and chips on Tuesday?
If you want to cook something, be my guest.
-Keep going, Nan. -Now this balances everything.
You had the nine of swords here.
That can show up when you're feeling anxious or fearful.
-Who's feeling anxious or fearful? -Nan's doing a spread for me.
Ah, the Queen of cups, she's a beautiful card.
She's emotional. And this card, this one grounds you.
This is all about trusting yourself and your intuition.
-What's going on? -It's just a friend thing. Don't worry.
Your mother's the real expert in all this stuff.
She was exactly the same at your age,
always worrying about what people were thinking of her.
-Was I? -Yes. Don't you remember?
You used to come home every day crying,
because someone or other didn't like you.
-When was this? -I wouldn't say every day.
Same age as you now, more or less.
-Terrible anxiety. -Considering the circumstances.
Anyway, who didn't like me?
Plenty of people did like you. So, what does it matter?
-When you said that, who'd you mean? -Jeez. Get over it, Mom.
-Jay. Who's Jay? -Oh.
-Hi, Jay. This is… -Unexpected, I know.
Yeah, it's been ages.
Yeah, all right.
How are you? You all good?
Actually, no. I wanted to make sure you'd heard.
Heard what?
I don't know how to say this, but, um…
another Darling girl's gone missing just like Gracie.
-Oh, my God. -I know.
And Raffy was the last to see her.
Your Raffy?
Yeah, it's like it's happening again.
They were even at the old shack.
All she'll say is, um, they were playing Gracie Darling.
Okay. Are you in a comfy spot?
Tuck, tuck, tuck.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
Can we leave the light on?
All right. Close your eyes. Shh.
It's okay.
So I find myself in the offices of…
-You all right, Bear? -Mm-hm.
I'm on leave now, so we can have some fun this holidays.
We can go movies, Sushi Train.
If Sushi Train's your idea of fun,
you need to take a good hard look at your life.
Give me a break. You used to love Sushi Train.
"Used to" being the operative words.
I'm going to bed.
-Night, Mom. -Okay. Night.
Pace mine for you
Hold my horses
Patient
Hey, man
Tricks can't wait to hear
My emotions
Every time the sun comes up I'm in trouble
Every time the sun comes up
I'm in trouble
Okay, thanks.
Yeah, every time the sun comes up I'm in trouble
Imagine when
Every time the sun comes up
I see double
I know. I know. Yeah.
I swear, I'm doing everything I can, Ruth.
Yes, yes.
I promise, and I will call you the minute I have something, all right?
Yeah. Bye, bye.
It's Ruth Darling. She thinks I'm not doing enough.
Are you?
They'd had a fight, but then Raffy told us about the game.
There's no trace of her. Her phone's off.
She hasn't turned up at the hospitals. Or worse.
I thought you weren't coming.
Changed my mind.
-Well, hi. -Hi.
The Darlings have never really forgiven me for Gracie.
Forgiven you?
Well, any of us, but they don't have to look at you every day, do they?
Now, with Anita and this bloody wind farm, the whole town's on edge.
You said you'd be over first thing.
I said I needed to go into work first.
You could've texted if you were changing plans.
I would've texted if I was changing plans.
There's no need for the combative tone.
-How are you, Joni? -Good.
Anita, it's nice to see you.
-Frankie turned up yet? -No, no.
-You reckon she ran away? -Probably.
-Either that or karmic retribution. -Oh, jeez, Anita.
How's Raffy going?
See if you can get any sense out of her.
No, that's only if you feel comfortable with that.
It's the turbines. It messes with their flight paths.
The Darlings pushed the development through.
Anyway, uh, Raffy's in her room.
I lost another two animals this week.
-The Darlings are profiting off my ruin. -Not now, Anita.
Rich get richer while everyone else gets screwed over.
Take off your shoes, please.
It's fine. You can leave them on.
Hi, Raffy.
It's Joni.
It's been a while.
Your mom and dad wanted me to have a chat with you.
Is that okay?
Your dad said that you and Frankie were up at the old shack.
Did he tell you that we used to hang out up there?
We used to do séances. Scared the shit out of ourselves.
-Really? -Yeah.
Well, you know, I mean there's
a lot of stuff that you don't know about him.
Just like how there's stuff he didn't know about you.
-Raffy, what's playing Gracie Darling? -Everyone at youth group plays.
Okay. How do you play?
I just ran away and left her there.
There anything else that you want to tell me?
Might help us find your friend.
Hm.
I'll just…
That's my number.
If you ever wanted to call or text me, you can.
Something evil got inside her.
Something called Levi?
Levi. Levi, I mean, that was something we created, right?
Like some sort of collective delusion.
It was so long ago, Joni. I barely remember.
You and Anita ever mention it?
You know, the things you talk about when you think the kids aren't listening?
No.
We never talk about that night.
Right, okay.
Well, I guess it's just important that you don't shut Raffy down,
that she feels listened to.
Even if what she's talking about seems silly or irrational.
Yeah.
-Well, it was still good to see you. -Yeah.
Thanks for coming up, yeah. I'm…
-I'm sorry if I wasted your time. -No, not at all.
-If there's anything else… -Yeah, I'll keep you posted.
-Good luck. -Yeah, thanks. Okay, bye.
Hello?
Yes. Yes. My granddaughter, Frankie.
Apricot hoodie, red backpack, denim shorts.
Yes. Thank you.
Pray for us.
Moira. Sorry, I knocked. It's Joni.
-Joni. How are you, darling heart? -Hi.
-How are your gorgeous girls? -Oh, they're fine, they're fine.
I'm leaving this afternoon, but I wanted to see you before I left.
I can't believe this is happening to you again. I'm so sorry.
Only God knows God's will.
-Let me put the kettle on. -Oh…
Ruth will be pleased to see you. Ruth!
Jay's doing everything he can, but it's almost…
Have you heard something?
Um…
Joni's come to offer her prayers.
-Hi, Ruth. -Oh. Uh…
Thank you. Um, Mom's got half the district praying,
but what I really need
is people doing something constructive to help find my daughter.
I'm sorry. Is this a good time for guests?
Why are you asking people around? I don't want to hear how sorry they are.
Calm down. People are only trying to help.
If they want to help, they can go and do something.
-No need to be rude. -I don't care if it's rude.
-Go lie down. Calm down. -No.
Well, don't it get you down
Wondering how it ever Got to be this way?
All you know It ain't the first time
And now you're underground
Wasting away, watching your back again
All you gotta know…
Your mom is so fucking cool.
She actually used to wear this stuff?
Yeah, I guess.
-Did it hurt when you flipped the bike? -Fucking oath.
Are you excited for all the tourists over the summer?
Might have more of a chance with guys you don't know.
-Thanks a lot. -Shut up. You know what I mean.
Like guys who aren't from this town. Come on, Joni.
You don't want to be sweet 16 and never been kissed.
Maybe I want to be a virgin forever.
Maybe I'll dedicate my life to Christ.
-What about Jay? -What about Jay?
And when you're coming down Head on the floor…
-It's granddad. Hide it. Hide it. -Shit.
When you come around
-What are the two of you up to? -Project.
Good for you. Staying for dinner, Joni?
Thanks, Mr. Darling, but I'd best get home.
Next time, then.
-You're always welcome. -Thanks.
Mr. Darling. Sorry, I'm…
Mr. Darling, it's Joni.
Where's Gracie?
-Gracie. Gracie, um… -Dad?
Oh, there you are.
Joni. What are you doing in here?
Oh…
Well, your father and I were just catching up.
Come on, Dad. We'll show Joni out.
Dad? You home?
At least I'm not a liar!
A great role model for our daughter.
-Don't talk about role models! -I'll talk about whatever I like!
What about…
All the tracks that are racing up the charts right now.
This is 102 FM, the soundtrack to summer,
playing all the newest hits for you.
I wanna hold the hand inside you
I wanna take the breath that's… true
See you, suckers!
Gracie!
I look to you to see the truth
Wait up!
Some kind of night into your darkness
Colors your eyes with what's not there
Fade into you
Strange you never knew
-This place is definitely haunted. -Really?
Yeah. Bad shit happened here, I reckon.
Oh, my God. Stop it, Gracie. You're freaking me out.
Like someone's died. Or like a murder.
-What was that? -What?
What?
Listen.
Who's there?
Oh!
Oh, my…
-You should see your face! -Shut up, Gracie!
Fucking God! Jesus Christ, Billy! Give us a heart attack.
-What are you doing? -Mind your own fucking business.
Dickhead!
Classy.
Oh. That's disgusting.
-Here you go, Jay. Go wild. -Ooh!
You know what we should do here?
A séance.
Hey, guys. Sorry.
Um, is Raffy in tonight?
-Who's asking? -Oh, I'm a friend. Friend of…
A friend of her dad's.
-Are you his new girlfriend? -No. Not that kind of friend.
Gosh, you guys must be really worried about Frankie.
She's probably just run off.
I heard that they were playing Gracie Darling.
They were playing?
Do you know about that game?
Gracie Darling.
As in that girl that disappeared back in the '90s?
Yeah.
They let out something evil back then.
You should never go into the forest at night or Gracie's killer…
-Oh, yeah. -Okay.
So, the rest of you lot joining us, or…?
-Yeah. -Yeah. Okay. Come on, then.
-Sorry. Hi. You are? -Sorry.
Hi, I'm Joni Grey. I'm a psychologist.
I've been working with Sergeant Rajeswaran.
Yeah. If this is an official visit, uh, I wasn't informed.
So, anyone who is dealing with the kids needs official clearance.
Totally understand. Sorry about that.
Okay. Let's go.
Hey. Does the name Levi mean anything to you?
Goodbye.
-Hi! -Mommy!
-Hi, Lulu. -What's happened to Grandpa?
Nothing. Pa's fine. See?
Hard living finally caught up with you, Bob?
You should be so lucky.
What are you doing up there?
I'm sorry. There was a bit of an emergency.
What emergency? In the middle of the night?
Terrible thing. This girl missing.
-What? Who's missing? -Young Frankie Darling.
I was gonna tell you about it when I got home.
Help!
Get back!
-Are you all right? Are you burnt? -No. I'm fine.
What the hell is that?
Somebody's sending a message.
-To who? -I've got a pretty fucking good idea.
Oh, Jesus.
Joni, what were you doing at the youth group this afternoon?
I wanted to help. I thought…
I asked you to talk to Raffy,
not start your own unauthorized investigation.
I'm sorry.
All right, clear off.
Yeah, a little bit. Not too bad.
My mom and I were watching a show.
She speaks over the contestants, just guessing the answers.
She's asking questions I obviously don't know the answer to.
-We're watching the same show. -Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What the hell were you playing at?
Look, I know it was you or one of your stupid mates.
Do you know how dangerous,
not to mention totally insensitive with Frankie missing?
Anita.
-Hey. -Hi.
I'm keen to help find Frankie. Should I report to you or…
No. No, uh, detectives come up from the city, um,
-I'm too close, apparently. -Oh.
Frankie!
Gracie?
Frankie.
Hey!
Hey, hey, hey!
Frankie. Hey!
Frankie! Hey!
Hey, hey, wait!
Hey!
Hey! I found something! Somebody, please help me!
Someone!
Help!
Yeah, Frankie's body.
-So, just charred remains? -Mm-hm.
Um, I'm gonna get in the car now. So I'll see you in a few hours.
Oh, take your time. I'll hold the fort here.
Thanks, Mom. Yeah.
I've been worried about you, darling. I did a spread and the cards just…
Oh, for fuck's sake, Mom…
I don't want to say I told you so, but it was quite worrying.
-Really, it was. -Okay. Thank you.
Hello?
He heard my voice out of his temple,
and my cry came before him, even into his ears.
I will love thee, O Lord, my strength.
The Lord is my rock, my fortress…
-Hello? -…and my deliverer, my refuge.
-Oh. I'm so sorry to interrupt. -Oh, Joni.
I just thought I'd drop by on my way out of town.
Zac. This is our pastor, Zac Teporoa.
Zac, this is Joni Grey, a dear friend of the family.
-Pleased to meet you officially. -Likewise.
Ruth is in bed. Um, the shock, she needed a lie down.
-Yeah. -I'm not in bed.
I'm so, so sorry, Ruth.
I've got to… I'm gonna head out. If there's anything that you need.
Thank you.
Hi.
-Mrs. Darling. -Uh, Moira, please.
Moira. Ruth.
I'm not really meant to do this, but, um, I wanted to give you a heads-up.
The full forensics haven't come back,
but what we do know for sure is that the body…
is a teenage girl.
The girl has an identifying feature.
A broken arm, fully healed at the time of death.
A double fracture of the left forearm.
Gracie.
-Oh, God. -Oh, God.
-Mommy. -You all right?
Okay, hold her head. Hold her head.
It's all right. It's okay. It's okay.
