previously on ghost whisperer we're getting ready.

For what? - For what's coming.

It's time for you to know who you are.

And to know who your brother is.

Do you really think it was your father in the light? If he's dead, I have to find out what happened.

You are so over your head.

And I really wouldn't come back.

Ever.

All right, I get it.

I understand.

I'll make dinner.

I'll do the dishes, but, uh, you just relax.

Take it easy.

Look, I offered to help.

Did I miss that? Look at me.

Doing my part, going to get the door.

Don't hurt your hand on the doorknob.

Take it easy.

Mel, who is it? What the hell are you doing here? Wow.

You're angry.

I was there when you got hurt.

You think it's my fault.

You were there, smiling, and she wasn't just hurt.

For the longest minute of my life, she was dead.

Yeah.

You know, a part of me didn't mind seeing you like that.

For a very long time I blamed my entire family for leaving me locked up in that where I grew up.

Too bad.

Go.

I'm trying to find dad.

Mine or yours? Ours.

My father's dead.

Why should that keep either of us from looking for him? We both see ghosts.

Are you done? Look, I I figured you'd still be in denial.

Who would want to admit that their old man had an extra family on the side? But are you gonna tell me you haven't seen him? He hasn't come to visit you in your dreams? Yeah, I thought so.

He's been haunting my dreams, too.

How do you think I found out you were my sister? Jim asked you to leave, nicely.

What are you hiding from? We're both trying to find him.

We both have unfinished business with him.

We we should be working together that's enough! Go! Look.

My mother gave this to me when I was a kid.

It belonged to my dad.

It'll mean a lot more to you than it ever did to me.

Patient Personal Property For you, they were family.

For me, they were just more people he had to hide me from.

Where was your mother for all this? She was always close by.

In the next ward the mental hospital This is my dad's parents right after they got married.

And, uh, my dad told me that he got these cufflinks from his aunt and uncle right after he graduated college.

Honey, you know, gabriel could have gotten this stuff from anywhere.

I don't trust him either.

But I just can't shake the feeling that he might be telling the truth about being my brother.

Why do you think that? Too many coincidences.

Gabriel showed up right after that dad told me I had brother.

And let's face it my dad was in and out of the house for a lot of years, so he could have had kids, and I wouldn't have known.

Gabriel didn't get his gift from dad, but he got other things.

Well, he certainly got your dad's gift for tying you up in knots.

I left the lights on downstairs.

I'm going to turn 'em off.

You need anything? Tea? Water? No.

Ok.

So who do you think the picture's of? It's gotta be some relative of my dad'S.

I mean, all these photos are his.

Well, so gabriel says.

Don't worry.

I'm not taking anything gabriel says on faith.

I just faxed a request for his medical records to that mental institution he said he grew up in.

"Trust, but verify.

" Yeah, sounds good.

Only my motto is slightly different.

Trust, but caffeinate.

What will it be? The usual.

Twice the foam, please.

Ok.

Hello? Who's there? - Shh! Who are you? Why are you here? - Please.

Quiet.

They're everywhere.

Who? They told me I was crazy.

They took my baby.

Who are you? What's your name? Wait a minute.

Gabriel gave this to me, and he he said that his mother was in the same hospital he was.

You're gabriel's mother, aren't you? Help me! Help me! First it was ray billings, then there was the stalker guy I saw get sucked under, and now this one, gabriel's mother.

Well, if you're asking me to tell you that there are no dark spirits under grandview, get comfortable,'cause it's gonna be a long wait.

You've taken all of the smug certainty out of being a skeptic.

I'm waiting for you to tell me how they work.

How can dark spirits trap other ghosts, and why are they underground? Well? Oh, sorry, I thought we were waiting.

Look, the basic gist of it is that the dark spirits feed on the darker emotions hate, anger, fear, jealousy, greed, all of that stuff.

And it's very powerful emotion, so it's hard to break their grip.

Yeah, but not impossible? No, it's not impossible.

The things that better them are the same things that better them in life.

All the good stuff love, joy, happiness, forgiveness, melted cheese, great.

Thanks.

Where are you going? You're not actually going to go through with this, are you? - Why wouldn't I? You're going to take a tip from this this gabriel guy to go find your untrustworthy deadbeat dad? Your untrustworthy deadbeat dead dad? I'm simply following some leads.

Leads? How? Think about this.

I will.

Don't worry.

I'm worried.

Hey.

I got your call.

What's up? I was trying to summon gabriel's mother if that's who she is and while I was waiting, I got this.

It's the treatment records from gabriel's institution, correct? Yeah, I asked the doctor for copies,'cause I wanted to know the truth.

Melinda, look, I'm sorry.

I know that I can't imagine what this feels like for you, but there's nothing in here you didn't already know, outside of the fact that he attacked other patients.

He told them he could see ghosts.

They thought he was crazy.

It's why they put him in there.

That could have been me.

No, you have a gift.

He is violent.

He is mentally ill.

He's my brother.

We have a lot of the same genes.

You don't know that yet.

Actually, I do.

That's why dr.

Lawrence wanted to see my birth certificate.

He needed proof that I was family, and he got it.

Gabriel's father was tom gordon.

He's my half brother.

And now you want to save him? After what he did? But this is what I do.

I help people fix their worst mistakes.

Yes, hello.

Um, you have a guest staying with you under the name gabriel gordon? Well, could you check? Sure.

Thanks.

Hello? Mr.

Gordon is not answering.

would you like to leave a message? Yeah! No.

You know what? I'll I'll call back later, thanks.

So this wasn't a haunting, it was more like a vision? Uh, yeah.

Sometimes I get them, and ghosts try to show me things, and I don't always know why.

But it felt like it was real? Oh, very.

My heart was still pounding an hour later.

And did you get a chance to talk to gabriel about it? No.

The thing is this this vision, it was like I think it's something that happened to the ghost gabriel's mother and I, you know, at first, I thought it maybe was the moment that they took her to the hospital, but that wasn't right.

I mean, these guys were rough, you know? They had a big axe with blood on it.

Right.

Bloody axe doesn't really say hospital, does it? I have to find out more before I talk to gabriel, which is my roundabout way of asking you to please watch the store.

Only if you promise to tell me everything you find.

Deal.

Ok.

I'm not hurt.

Uh, just so you know.

I'm bigger than that.

Ok.

Good.

I'm a talker.

I know I talk a lot.

I can't expect people to listen to every single word I say, and that's why it didn't surprise me you didn't listen to me.

What do you mean? I listened.

You listened? Then why are we down here with all of these creepy, spooky ghosts where they live? Because you had some advice from your evil twin half brother.

Look, it was your idea.

You said that we needed to check all the town death records and that any place where there was a dark spirit infestation would probably have a lot of deaths.

No, no, no.

Not not a lot of deaths.

A lot and lot of deaths.

And grisly, awful deaths.

And simultaneous.

Like they all happened at the same time.

Ok, so shouldn't we check the records like you said? All right, I don't like being quoted back to myself.

Especially when I'm right.

While we are looking, why don't you go that direction, and I will go this way? Ok.

Let's see.

I've been looking for you.

Where have you been? Quiet.

They can hear you.

Please tell me what happened.

I can help you cross over into the light.

Oh, no, no.

I I can't do that.

I can'T.

I I don't deserve to be free.

Why? I lost my baby.

It's all my fault.

What do you mean? What happened? They all died because of me.

Who? Give up.

You won't find what you're looking for.

And what am I looking for? It doesn't matter.

Whatever it is, you won't find it.

That's my job.

I make sure what's buried stays that way.

Oh, my god.

What are these? These are teeth.

"Clay 48"?What does that mean? I don't know, but whoever these belonged to is going to have a hard time eating beef.

She said they all died because of me.

Who? - The ghost.

Gabriel's mother.

You think she what? She killed all these people? I don't know.

But what does she have to do with all these deaths? You gave those things to find dad.

Is it just about dad, or are you looking for someone else, too? Like who? I spoke to your mother's ghost.

She said,"they all died because of me.

" What does it mean? I don't know who you're talking to, but that wasn't my mother.

How do you know? To start with, my mother's no ghost.

She's alive.

And insane.

And living in some halfway house in crested butte.

Well, then, who is the ghost that you led me to? I mean, I have followed all the leads in the envelope, and that's the only ghost I can make contact with.

If there were any ghosts attached to dad's stuff, it was something you did, not me.

So who's this ghost you met? You know, I'll call you.

If I find anything.

Of course his mother wasn't the ghost.

I could have told you that.

Then why didn't you? Ok, technically, I could not have told you that until about a minute or two ago, but I would have told you.

See, I have a friend that teaches forensic pathology, and he's been looking at these teeth.

Did you know that these teeth are over 150 years old? So then how are those teeth connected to this ghost? He's going to run some tests on the smoke stains and caraway seeds that are stuck inside these teeth.

But I'm pretty sure the message is going to remain clear.

Never underestimate the power of floss.

So then the mystery is, is who is this ghost, and why did she lead us to that box? The real mystery is, who is this ghost, and why did she lead us to that box? That is what I just said.

Well, what did you mean? I mean, are you suggesting that possibly all these deaths happened somewhere else, and that's why there's no recorded history of them here in grandview? No, because ghosts usually have some sort of attachment to where they died, which is weird, because these ghosts seem to be stuck underground.

Well, then, the real mystery is, is, uh, is what you said.

What is it about this thing? You remember it, don't you? People did terrible things to each other.

Do you remember your name? He called me tessa once.

Tell me how all those people died.

You made it sound like it was your fault.

I don't know anymore.

So many ghosts tell the story.

They each tell it differently.

What's your version? I tried to warn them.

But they wouldn't listen.

What did you try to warn them about? I saw a ghost.

He was from weston.

I gave them the warning that he gave me.

I don't understand.

Were you dead? I was as alive as you.

So you saw ghosts when you were alive? Why are you so surprised? You see me.

I guess maybe there were more of us doing what we do than I ever knew.

Until they find out.

Then they kill us.

Is that why they killed you? That doesn't matter anymore.

All that matters is Tessa, wait.

Where are you going? I I can help you.

Find out what happened to my baby, please.

That's all that matters.

Tessa, wait! I thought you said you were going to the archives? I am.

This isn't the archives.

There's no dust, no cobwebs.

Tessa said that she was warned by a ghost from weston.

These are the weston archives.

They're all online.

You're kidding me.

Let me see.

And here come my search results.

Wait.

Listen to this.

"Rumors from grandview said residents there became sick "with a strange fever.

"The unknown disease killed dozens,"but not before making them insane.

The fever caused many to murder their friends and family.

" "The worst rumor told of a preacher " who slaughtered his flock after locking them up in his church.

" What church is that? St.

Agnes church on clay street.

Well, that's why the box said "clay 48.

" It was the name of the street and the year.

Yeah, but the weird thing is I've never heard of a st.

Agnes church or a clay street.

That's what's weird to you? The slaughtered flock nothing? All right, listen to this.

"Weston doctor eustace green wrote in his diary "that he treated patients with symptoms "like those in grandview.

"He mentions a theory that it might be linked "to tainted bread.

"No traces of the bread survived to confirm his theory.

" Ergot poisoning.

Of course.

That's it.

What's it? - Ergot! It's a toxin that's found in a fungus that grows on grain, even rye.

The symptoms are everything they're explaining here.

Seizures, vomiting.

The psychosis.

Even gangrene.

That explains why they lost their minds.

I think I found the ghost who warned tessa.

"Soon after writing this diary entry,"dr.

Greene died of exposure.

" He was traveling through a blizzard towards grandview, presumably to treat victims there.

" Tessa said that she was warned by a ghost from weston.

Hey.

my girl.

You look tired.

Delia doesn't come for another hour.

You could take a nap before dinner if you want.

If I lay down, I will sleep until next thursday.

Any luck confirming some of that stuff you found in the weston archive? I spent all afternoon there, and I finally found one box of grandview papers from, like,1848, and not one of them mentioned the deaths from the weston records.

It's bizarre.

Did gabriel ever call me back? No.

Did you expect him to? Then I asked delia to check her real estate sources.

You know, hoping that maybe clay street had been renamed or something.

Came up dry there, too.

You know, it's like the whole thing was so shameful, the town just decided to bury it.

Bury it? What do you mean? Well, you know.

Hide it.

Sweep it under the rug.

Put something heavy on it.

I wonder if that's why they're all trapped underground? It's maybe the why, the who, or what? No.

Wait a minute.

Hey, delia's going to be here at 8:00.

No, no, no.

Just keep cooking.

Seriously.

I'll be back in.

Like, an hour.

I just I want to find out what else they buried.

Hello? Tessa, are you here? St.

Agnes church.

Clay street, it's underneath.

St.

Agnes church, clay street.

Sorry, jim.

Oh, my god.

Clay street.

You startled me.

He surprised us, too.

"Us"? You lived here once, didn't you? And died here.

Is that why you're all trapped underneath? Because you died here, and then you were buried? They didn't like the story our bones told, so they pretended we never lived.

Built your town right on top of ours.

If you hear anything from her, please, give us a call, ok? Mel! Melinda! Oh.

It's you.

Is it that painful to see me? No, no, no.

I'm sorry.

We just thought you might be melinda.

Where is melinda actually? Because some test results came back, confirming a theory, we where is melinda? Look, I don't know.

It could be nothing.

But she said she'd be back in an hour.

When? This isn't like her.

Ok? She doesn't disappear.

She doesn't leave her cell phone off.

What was the last thing she said? We were talking about the ghost.

Tessa.

Right.

And I said, you know, something about how I felt like the whole town had buried what had happened to her.

She pops up and says,"I'm going to go find out what else they buried.

" The archives.

Tessa, I know that you don't remember it well, but I need you to try.

I need you to make peace with what happened and then move on.

It won't work.

There's too many others who won't ever make peace with me.

Ok, so talk to them.

We'll make them understand.

No.

I can'T.

Why not? They're not out here.

They're in there.

Tessa, please tell me what happened in that church.

Half the town was already sick.

Brother davis, he thought he was locking them in to protect them from the sickness and everyone out here who had it.

But all they brought in to feed them was water and bread.

Later, after they'd all lost their minds, brother davis decided he needed to destroy the evil.

So he started the fire.

With everyone locked inside.

He killed them all even himself.

So what happened to you and your baby? When I told them the fever was coming before it came, and that I'd heard the news from a ghost what else could they think? I must be a witch.

Yeah, but you knew it wasn't true.

All I know is they locked me up in that church, dragged me away from my baby, said I could spend the rest of my days with the ones I had killed.

No! It wasn't your fault.

There was no magic that did this.

It was just a disease.

No, they they've told me again and again and again well, they were wrong.

You risked your life to give them that warning, and you were right.

Weren't you? I wish someone could tell them.

I will.

And you'll tell them with me.

No! Wait, please! We can't! You don't know what lives in there.

No, please! We can't go in! We have to.

It's the only way you can cross over.

Hey, you guys.

Look at this.

That's melinda's handwriting.

What does this mean?"S.

A"? St.

Agnes church.

That's what she was looking for.

It's a map.

That's town square, right? Yeah.

Hey this is recent.

Who would move these bookcases? Come on, give me a hand.

One of them must have gone through here.

Damn it.

Damn it.

There's no way we can go through there.

Oh, my god.

Jim! Wait, if melinda went in there No, she's alive.

I'd know.

What is youe emergency? Yeah, I need driscoll country rescue and recovery.

Yes.

I'll hold.

Guys, it's melinda we're talking about.

If she wasn't alive, she'd find a way to tell us.

It won't work.

What's done can't be undone.

Why'd she do this to us? They're both witches.

Witches did this to us.

Witches look, this is a map.

I think it shows the way she was headed.

Sir, you want to find your wife.

I understand.

But I've been in the tunnels a hundred times.

There are no branches where this says there are.

This is going to sound a little strange, ok, but these lines I don't think these are tunnels that you've been in.

They're something else, ok? They're what's leftover of old roads, alleyways they're what's leftover of another town, underground.

Another town underground? Actually, this town.

The way it was.

About 200 years ago.

Actually, there's lots of cities that have been built on top of entire towns.

I mean, edinburgh, scotland they covered the royal mile.

Look, I'm sorry, but I've got to go where I know the tunnels are.

Right.

Excuse me.

Wait a minute.

Come with me.

I know you're all angry.

I can feel that.

And I understand.

You died too soon and too horribly.

Your hearts tell you there has to be a reason for that.

And there is.

But it's not what you think.

No evil killed you.

Or witches.

It was just a disease.

What disease? Think back.

The food brought into the church it was bread, wasn't it? Bread that was made of rye.

How do you know that? They found some.

After you died.

And that bread carried a disease.

And made people so ill that they lost their minds.

Is it true? A doctor was coming to warn you, but he didn't make it.

So he asked tessa to give you the message.

It couldn't be true.

Could it? That's the only reason that she knew before you.

Could be true.

It could be true.

Lies.

Lies from another witch.

It's him.

Melinda, go! What about the other ghosts? They need help, too.

You're not powerful enough.

Run! Powerful finally.

my fault, it was my fault.

Help! Don't waste your breath.

You'll need it.

You're not the first to come down here and look for us.

Others have come and been trapped, too.

I I've watched them panic.

Help comes, but they don't last until it gets there.

Is help coming for me? Yes.

But it's too far away.

Ok.

Tessa, I have to cross you over into the light.

I told you I can'T.

What's done can't be undone.

Yeah, but you didn't do anything.

Yes, I did.

I abandoned my baby.

If I hadn't carried that message, I never would have lost her.

It's all my fault she was left alone.

You can't keep blaming yourself.

You were just trying to save lives.

That's a subject you know something about.

Don't you, melinda? Dad? Ok, if this is city hall, and that's the old theater, then the closest building to the alley that fed into church street is right there.

What a coincidence.

I don't know about you, but I'm beginning to think that there's no such thing.

How did find me? Where have you been? Did you die? I don't understand.

Melinda, there's no time.

I can't be here for long, and neither can you.

I can't believe I let myself walk into this.

I everybody told me to stay away.

You didn't walk into anything.

You were led here.

By who? Gabriel? By me.

Why? Did you want me to die? You needed to know the truth.

Why couldn't you just tell me? Would you have believed any of this if I'd told you? Would you believe anything I sd? Ai I don't know if believe you now.

I mean, what's going on? What is it that I need to know? Everything.

The truth about grandview, why you're here, the dangers you're facing, but also, the power that you have and what you can do with it.

Open your locket.

My baby.

I don't know what your mother told you, but the real reason why we split was you.

It was nothing you did.

It's what you could do.

I wanted you to revel in your gift, not hide it.

I don't understand.

The locket is not from my side of the family.

It's from your mother'S.

She wanted to bury that part of your past, so she packed up the photos and the keepsakes, and she threw them away.

I found them and saved them.

How do I know that any of this is true? Tell melinda your baby's name.

Julia lee lucas.

Wait.

I know that name.

That's my great-great grandmother's name.

Your daughter is my grandmother's grandmother? You're descended from me? You see? Your baby was ok.

I know because otherwise, I wouldn't have this beautiful daughter.

I'm sorry.

I'd like to stay and help you if I could, but I have to leave now.

But I have so many questions.

I know.

I'll come back and find you.

Soon.

Jim, have some water.

You haven't taken a break in over an hour.

No.

I'm almost through.

I can feel it.

Thank you.

Is there any ice? This is room temperature.

Damn it! She was right.

It's just like on melinda's map.

There's some kind of tunnel in here.

Come on.

Back up.

Look out.

I'm going to make this big enough to get through.

The air's getting thin.

Your friends are close.

But they won't know where to look if you don't make noise.

Noise? Use your voice.

You have to call out now.

Quickly! Hello? Louder! They won't hear you like that.

I can'T.

There's no air.

I just can'T.

Which way should we go? We're already way past where the church is supposed to be.

You have to try.

I can't lose my baby again.

Your baby? Don't you see? You came for me.

You have to live.

Hello? Can you hear me? That's good.

Now louder.

Hello? Did you feel that breeze? That way.

I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I feel something.

Ok.

It's not possible.

I look, no, hey.

Maybe it is possible.

Maybe it's that ghost.

Her name is tessa.

Melinda's that way.

guys, I think we should go that way.

Wait, wait.

I hear something.

Down here! Can you hear that? Hello? I'm in here! That's melinda.

Come on.

Come on.

I'm down here! Move back.

They're almost here.

Mel! Jim! I'm coming.

almost there It's ok.

Come here.

That's ok.

You know you're 12 hours late for dinner.

That is so not ok.

I I am so sorry.

I am so sorry.

As long as you're ok, babe, nothing else matters.

Your town is so beautiful.

It's your town, too.

I'm glad I was the one that got to show it to you.

I wish the other spirits beneath could see.

They will.

I'll find a way.

There it is.

Hey, it's so bright.

So beautiful.

I I didn't think I'd ever - you deserve it.

Especially for what you've done for me.

And for this town.

It's what we do.

Yeah, I guess that's true.

You and I, we we've seen so many people go into the light, but until the end, we never see it ourselves.

That's ok.

I think I'll wait.

That's right.

You wait.

Wait a long, long time.

Be careful, melinda.

I will.

next time I tell you to help me with your sister try not to kill her instead? So you saw her? Can't keep this up for much longer.

I won't have to.

It's already in motion.

Soon she'll be with us.

And what if she won't? She's a smart girl.

She'll make the right choice.

Because if she doesn't
