Two more weeks.
And these are all the assessments left?
Yup.
BEN: So, how should we do this? Just randomly reach in
- and pick a few? - Yeah.
- Or we each pick one? - Or start with the most urgent.
This one.
Excuse me, Sister?
This is your next assessment. Let's go.
Great.
Right back in Catholic school.
Doing as I'm told.
Paul, these are the assessors.
This is David, Kristen and Ben.
Hello. Sorry to drag you into this.
Were you one of Sister Andrea's students?
No. [chuckles softly] She didn't tell you?
She's not particularly chatty.
She was the love of my dad's life.
- The nun who got away. - KRISTEN: Really?
- No, I don't think we need to go into this. - KRISTEN: Actually,
- I think we need to go into this. - He never got over her.
He had her photo in his wallet...
This isn't important.
Why don't you tell us what the issue is, Paul?
Uh, well, I'm-I'm not sure where to start.
Paul needs an exorcism.
[sighs] I guess I do.
Up to a month ago, I was just a happy dad,
good job, real estate, married to my high school sweetheart.
I'm... I'm one of those irritating people in surveys
who say how happy they are.
And what happened a month ago?
Uh...
So, I decided
to try a different coffee
every morning.
First one up.
Galaão.
That's espresso with foamed milk.
Not bad.
A bit bland.
Tomorrow, affogato.
I don't understand.
This is why you need an exorcism?
Are you afraid that you're vlogging too much?
No. [chuckles softly] That's not me.
What do you mean?
PAUL JR.: That's not me.
That's someone who looks like me.
I'm feeling a little tired this morning.
I didn't get much sleep.
I feel like something's following me.
Do you ever get that feeling?
Like you're being...
haunted?
I might call in sick.
PAUL JR.: His name's Gregory.
He works as a data entry engineer
in Studio City, California.

I-I just saw him online.
I was scrolling, and there he was.
Something's wrong.
I can't get out of bed.
My muscles hurt.
My mom thinks it's black mold, so,
I moved to a motel, but...
I'm still...
You're worried he's possessing you?
Yes.

Paul Stolee was a childhood friend.
He killed himself.

this is generational trauma.
His father committed suicide,
and he's having suicidal ideation.
No, every night at 2:00 a.m.,
this person, this double, possesses him.
That's what he says?
He called me two weeks ago.
He said he was afraid
that he was going to hurt his wife and his children,
so he moved out, he moved into a hotel.
I was there last night watching over him,
and there was something.
- I don't know what it was. - Demonic?
ANDREA: Possibly.
It was 2:00 a.m., and I was interrupted

He needs an exorcism.
Look, Sister Andrea, I do agree
that sometimes the placebo effect
of an exorcism can work, but...
suicidal ideation is nothing to be trifled with.
An exorcism is not a trifle, Dr. Bouchard.

We are. The archdiocese is.
There are certain financial pressures

We have to deconsecrate five churches
to make ends meet.
Your parish has been chosen.
Father, we were promised a certain amount of time
to right these financial difficulties.
Yes, but the archdiocese would like
to expedite the deconsecration process.
Please inform the other priests and the nun residents,
they'll be receiving their reassignments in two weeks

Now, is Leland Townsend attempting
to intimidate you in any way?
Not directly.
But I know what he's capable of.
This is the hardest part of my job,
but I have to ask you.
Are you still willing to testify?
I am.
Good.

I take it, Mr. Cormier, that your witness is a no-show.
CORMIER: Your Honor, if you'll just give me time
to find Ms. Ackhurst...
I will, and when you find her,
we will reopen these proceedings,
but until that time I am dismissing this case.
Your Honor, Ms. Bouchard has a standing restraining order
against Mr. Townsend.
Oh, I know.
And I will admonish Mr. Townsend
to strictly abide by the conditions of that order.
Yes, Your Honor.
I promise you, Kristen.
You and your family will never see me.
- JETER: We are adjourned. - [bangs gavel]
How'd you do it?
Everyone has a price on their soul.
[chuckles]
[water dripping]
It's all coming apart, isn't it?
So, where are they sending you?
I don't know.
What about Sister Andrea?
I don't know that either.
And you don't have a choice?
I'm gonna miss this place.
And Leland's exonerated?
Yeah. Not enough evidence to hold him.
So it all comes crumbling down.
And yet you seem fine.
Yeah.
Just when you have no options, it helps to make big decisions.
I'm gonna start my own practice.
Dr. Boggs is referring some of his clients to me.
Congratulations.
Dr. Bouchard in the house.
I'm gonna send my fucked-up science friends to you.
- [David chuckles] - [door opens]
Ready.
[demonic screaming]
- PAUL JR.: Oh, God. - MULVEHILL: Thank you, David.
- We've got this. - [low growling]
- [Paul Jr. yelling] - MULVEHILL: I command you,
unclean spirit, along with all your minions
now attacking this servant of God.
- Resurrection... - God, hear my prayer. Harken to the words of my mouth.
...and ascension of God.
Andrea.
After all these years,
I found you.
Kiss me the way you used to.
You are not Paul.
You are a demon.
You need to leave his son now.
Andrea, my precious girl.
I loved you more than anyone in my life.
And that is the way that I love God.
I killed myself for you.
No.
You are the evil that killed him,
and you will not have his boy.
We could have had a beautiful life together.
But you left me. You betrayed me.
I needed you, and you abandoned me!
Why did you do that?!
Leave this boy!
- Leave him now! - [groaning]
- [demonic growling] - DAVID: Father.
ANDREA: You are the liar.
I command you, unclean spirit,
- whoever you are... - [screaming]
Further on!
Uh, uh, God, whose nature is ever merciful and forgiving.
[hissing]
[in youthful voice]: Why did he leave me?
I was just a kid.
I needed my dad.
[sobbing]: Why wasn't I good enough for him to stay?
Sister, keep back.
Why'd he do it?
I don't know.
[sniffles]
I wish I did, Paul.
But what I do know is,
no one wants us to follow them into death.
And everyone...
at that instant of extinction...
...knows they made a mistake.

Sorry.

["Still, Still, Still" playing on piano]
Hi, David.
Are you ready to tell me what's going on?
- With what? - The Church.
The heaviness you're carrying--
it has its own gravitational pull.
We're bankrupt.
The building's being deconsecrated and sold.
I tried to save it.
You never stood a chance.
I thought if I followed the path of righteousness,
my life would fall into place, but...
...it hasn't.
I've never been more lost.
Come here.
Give me your hand.
[plays chord]
[gasps softly]
You see?
He's here.
In this very room.
