Robbie Freeling If I got killed, I could visit her and show her how to get back here. You could tie a rope around me and hold it tight. Then somebody could come and get us and we could live somewhere else.

Sweetheart, last night, when you said "They're here.'...
Can I take my goldfish to school?
Sweetheart, do you remember last night when you woke up, and you said "They're here.'?
Uh huh.
Well, who did you mean, who's here?
The TV People.
Robbie She's stoned.
Dana Oh yeah? What do you know about it?
Robbie More than you. Ask Dad.
Dana Ask Dad.
Ask Dad.
All
Ask Dad. Ask Dad.
Robbie Ask Dad. Ask Dad. [Glass breaks & spills all over Dana's homework] Not my mess.
Dana Thanks a lont jerko. I've got class in 20 minutes.
Robbie Who are all those people?
They're so alone. So alone.
Robbie Where are they coming from?
I don't know.
Some people believe that when you die, your soul goes to heaven.
Robbie When Grandpa was dying, I looked at him in the hospital bed. And I was watching. But I didn't see anything go up out of him.
Well, his soul is invisible, Robbie. You couldn't see it.
Robbie But how come Grandpa isn't there on television with Carol Anne?
Some people believe that when people die, there's a wonderful light -- as bright as the sun. But it doesn't hurt to look into it. All the answers to all the questions that you ever want to know are inside that light. And when you walk to it, you become a part of it forever. (beat) And then, some people die but they -- don't know that they've gone.
Robbie They think they're still alive?
Yes. Maybe they didn't want to die. Maybe they weren't ready. Maybe they hadn't lived fully yet or they'd lived a long, long time and they still wanted more life. They resist going into that light, however hard the light wants them. They just -- hang around. Watch TV, watch their friends grow up -- feeling unhappy and jealous and those feelings are bad. They hurt. (beat) And then, some people just get lost on the way to the light, and they need someone to guide them to it.
Robbie So some people get angry and throw things around - like in my bedroom?
Yes. Just like in school. Like -- some kids are nice to you, some kids are mean.
Robbie I got beat up once by three kids. They took my lunch money. Maybe they got hit by a truck and they're upstairs right now!
