Ezra
- Jim: [just escaped from the haunted musical instruments that were chasing him and runs into Michael, Megan, Ezra and Emma] Michael! Megan, you okay?
- Megan: We're fine, thanks.
- Jim: Alright, get your things. Let's get out of here. Let's go.
- Megan: But dad, we have a problem.
- Jim: What? Because of the rain? Look, we're gonna get a little wet. Let's just find your mom and let's get out of here. Let's go!
- Ezra: I'm afraid that's not possible. She can't leave!
- Jim: And why not?
- [Ezra apparates from upstairs, right behind Jim, startling him]
- Ezra: Because she can't! If l could tell you, l would. But l can't, so l won't, okay?
- Jim: Hey, how'd you... Hey, look. Come on. Daddy's having more hallucinations. Let's go right now. Let's go.
- Megan: They're ghosts, Dad.
- Jim: They're not ghosts. We're just having hallucinations from that dinner that we ate. It was that chicken. It didn't taste right.
- [Emma apparates right in from of Jim from the top of the stairs, startling him again]
- Emma: Hey! It's not the chicken!
- Jim: All right! It's not the chicken! It's not the chicken. But we're still getting out of here.
- Megan: But dad, we have to help them.
- Jim: Hey, you can't help the dead, honey. They're beyond help. That's the nature of being dead.
- Ezra: The man's talking sense. Everyone should just keep their noses in their own business.
- Megan: But dad, we have to help them break the curse.
- Jim: Why is everybody talking about a curse? Wait a minute, have you been talking to that crazy green gypsy in the giant paperweight?
- Emma: [to Ezra] Gypsy! He found the gypsy! We've gotta go back to see her.
- [Jim panics]
- Jim: No back! I'm not going back!
- Megan: But, Dad!
- Jim: Hey, they had me floating all around the room!
- Megan: Dad!
- Jim: [pantomimes what he just went through as he's saying it] Hey, l was strapped to a chair, floating around the room with a marching band chasing me! I'm not going back anywhere! Forget it, Casper!
