CHARLES #3<br />

Is this cheap or what?<br />

DELIA and CHARLES run upstairs, leaving the grumbling guests.<br />

ADAM<br />

What has he done to<br />

Cathy?<br />

NEW ANGLE ON THE CROWD OF GUESTS --<br />

They are parted like the Red Sea as an unseen ADAM and BARBARA<br />

push through them in order to get upstairs. For the guests, this<br />

is the first ominous indication that something may actually be<br />

very wrong.<br />

INT: CATHY'S ROOM -- NIGHT<br />

CATHY lies on the floor, torn and bloody, as if attacked by an<br />

animal several times her own size. The wooden box that held the<br />

Squirrel lies in splinters around her. DELIA kneels at CATHY's<br />

side, applying first aid. LYDIA runs in with more bandages.<br />

CHARLES<br />

Cathy! Cathy! Wake up.<br />

Speak to us. Tell us what<br />

happened.<br />

DELIA<br />

We know what happened.<br />

It was the ghosts.<br />

CATHY opens her eyes a little. She makes a feeble motion of<br />

shaking her head no.<br />

Unnoticed by anyone in the room, the bedroom door is pushed open.<br />

CATHY<br />

They're <strong>here</strong>.<br />

DELIA<br />

We know they're <strong>here</strong>,<br />

darling. And don't worry.<br />

Otho's going to tell us<br />

how to get rid of them<br />

for good.<br />

INT: ATTIC -- NIGHT<br />

Dark and quiet. The door is pushed slowly open, and OTHO's round<br />

fat fearful face appears.<br />

OTHO<br />

Yoo-hoo.<br />

Getting no response, OTHO enters the room. He's brought along a<br />

bottle of wine for courage.<br />

He sees the model town in the moonlight, and his curiosity is<br />

peaked for a moment.<br />

OTHO<br />

How quaint. An exact<br />

replica of the dullest<br />

town on earth.<br />

He continues his search of the room. Circling the model, he<br />

trips on something, leans down, and retrieves the HANDBOOK FOR<br />

THE RECENTLY DECEASED.<br />

OTHO<br />

Well, this is interesting.<br />

I wish t<strong>here</strong> were moon light<br />

in <strong>here</strong>.<br />

As if in answer to his wish, the whorehouse in the model town<br />

bursts into lurid flame. OTHO stares at it a moment, and then<br />

douses the flames with the wine.<br />

INT: CATHY'S BEDROOM -- NIGHT<br />

CATHY has been moved to the bed, and looks a little stronger,<br />

ADAM and BARBARA stand on the opposite side of the bed from the<br />

DEETZs. (In this scene the DEETZs cannot see or hear ADAM and<br />

BARBARA.)<br />
