OH, MY LORNA.
>> AUNTIE WHISPERS!
>> I THOUGHT THEY'D STOLEN YOU
AWAY.
>> NO, AUNTIE. THEY SAVED ME.
THEY BANISHED THE EVIL SPIRIT
WITH THE POWER OF THE BELL!
>> YOU CAN HAVE IT BACK AFTER
GREG JR. GOES TO THE BATHROOM.
>> OH, LORNA [SNIFFS] THAT'S
WONDERFUL, DEAR.
>> AUNTIE WHISPERS, WHAT'S
WRONG?
>> WELL, NOW THAT YOU'RE CURED,
YOU WON'T BE NEEDING OLD
AUNTIE WHISPERS ANY MORE TO LOOK
AFTER YOU.
>> OH, AUNTIE, NO.
>> OHH.
>> I WOULD NEVER LEAVE YOU.
YOU ARE MY FAMILY.
>> AH. OHH.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH, WIRT.
>> AND A BIT OF ADVICE -- BEWARE
OF MY SISTER, ADELAIDE.

>> WOW, WIRT!
YOU SAVED THE DAY TWICE TODAY!
>> YEAH, I GUESS.
BUT SO WHAT?
WE'RE STILL NOT ANY CLOSER TO
GETTING HOME.
I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING
OUT HERE ANYMORE.
I DON'T KNOW IF WE'LL EVER GET
BACK HOME.
