Quotes 

• Nurse : I'm losing my patience...

  A.J. : You're losing *both* your patients!

• Grampa : What's all the fuss?

  AJ : I-I-I saw a girl, and she disappeared!

  Grampa : You saw the birthday girl?

  AJ : You know?

• Grampa : You see, a long time ago, a little girl just about your age AJ, fell down the front stairs during her birthday party.

  AJ : That's what I saw! She was carrying presents! It was her birthday!

  Nicki : She died on her birthday?

  Grampa : She didn't die in the fall. She hurt her leg and had to stay in bed. The girl's mother hired a nurse to take care of her at night. But as the story goes, the nurse was a little crazy. One night when the girl was sleeping, the crazy nurse filled a hypodermic needle with poison and gave it to her while she slept. Poor thing, never woke up.

  Nicki : She was murdered? Why?

  Grampa : Nobody knows, that night nurse claimed she was innocent until the day she died, in prison.

  Nicki : ...Cool.

• Nicki : [reading old newspaper]  Night Nurse Convicted in Death of Girl. What a creep.

  AJ : Why do you think she keeps coming back?

  Nicki : Unfinished business, that's always why ghosts come back.

  AJ : Maybe she's trying to tell us something.
