Ramsley
(about his job as a butler)
Attending to every detail. Understanding priorities. And, above all, knowing one's place!

Jim Evers
(catchphrase)
Hello, Jim Evers, of Evers & Evers Real Estate?
Master Gracey
(opening line)
Haven't you? (about the fireplace when Sarah says she hasn't seen anything like it)
Jim Evers
(opening line)
It's fantastic isn't it. Sometimes, when you step into a house, you know straight away whether its good.
Jim Evers
(reading Elizabeth's letter)
"Yes, my dear heart, I will marry you. I will love you for all eternity, and tonight at last, we will be together. I do. Forever yours, Elizabeth."
Ramsley
(to Jim)
May I confide in you? The master is not well. He must leave this house, Mr. Evers, he must move on.
Master Gracey
(to Jim)
Tell me, Mr Evers... do you believe in... ghosts?
Jim Evers
(last lines)
Hey, guys, keep it down!
Emma
[grabbing the reins from Ezra]
Move over.
Ezra
What are you doing?
Emma
If you keep driving, you'll kill us all.
Ezra
Well that's where you're wrong, because some of us are already dead. Ha-ha!
Jim Evers
[firmly]
Why'd you kill her [Elizabeth]?
Ramsley
Because the master would not listen to reason. He had everything in the world, and yet he was willing to throw it all away for love. I did tell him it would end badly.
Jim Evers
You're a real cold dude.
Ramsley
No, Mr. Evers, I am a rational man. It was my responsibility to the house, my duty, sir, to see to it that the boy did not make a foolish error in judgment. Running away with that girl would have destroyed this house. It would have destroyed everything, and I could not stand by and watch it all fall to ruin.
Megan Evers
[encouraging her father]
Punch his face in, Dad!
Jim Evers
[angrily]
Yeah, but first, I'm gonna talk to his master.
Ramsley
The master must be left alone. Edward and his love will be reunited, and this curse will be broken.
Jim Evers
[shocked]
But that's not her. That's my wife.
Ramsley
And what she sees in you, I'll never know. But that is of little importance now. The only thing that matters is that the master's pain must end, and it will end tonight. The curse will be broken, and we can all finally move on.
Jim Evers
[sternly]
Alright, that's it, man. Where's my wife?
Ramsley
Getting ready for her wedding, of course.
Jim Evers
What wedding? He can't marry her. He's dead, and she's not.
Ramsley
True, but that can be easily corrected. Life, I'm afraid, is such a delicate state.
Jim Evers
Hey, man, if you put one finger on my wife, I swear, I'll kill you! [Jim launches punches at Ramsley, but passes through the ghostly butler]
Ramsley
How wonderful. You're going to kill a ghost.
Michael Evers
Leave him alone!
Megan Evers
Stop it! [Ramsley locks Megan and Michael inside a small trunk]
Jim Evers
Let them go! [He lunges at Ramsley, but passes through him once again. Jim angrily puts his foot down with Ramsley] You're gonna let my kids out of here, you're gonna take me to my wife, and you're gonna let us out of here right now!
Ramsley
You want out? Fine. Let me show you out. [Ramsley grabs Jim by his throat, and he hoists him up in the air] Now, for the last time, good night, Mr. Evers. [He throws Jim outside of the mansion window, breaking all the glass in the process.]
Jim Evers
Hey, honey, you know they have dead people in the backyard.
Sara Evers
Well, some people have swimming pools, others have private cemetaries. It can happen.
Jim Evers
I gotta help my wife. She'll be...
Singing Busts
[singing]
Comin' round the mountain when she comes...
Jim Evers
Wait a minute. You're telling me this guy is dead, and the only reason we were brought here is he wants to get jiggy with my wife.
Ezra
Pretty much. Are you upset?
Jim Evers
The guy is dead, and he's trying to get with my wife? And the house isn't really for sale? Yes, I'm upset.
Jim
[to Ramsley, although he's gone]
Get away from us! Leave us alone!
Megan
No, Dad. It won't hurt us.
Madame Leota
Dark spirits from the grave come forth. Lift us from the black. And show us, show us the way back.
Jim Evers
Dark spirits? Hey, no dark spirits! Don't you make no dark spirits come out!
