This place gives me
the creeps. Always did.

:06:12
I think you'll be okay, Joey.
You got your gun with you.

:06:22
Murder, betrayal, revenge...
:06:25
ghosts, witches, sex...
:06:30
drugs and sword fights
with a few jokes thrown in.

:06:34
If you can find something with
all of that, that is fine by me.

:07:04
They found a body
in the river this morning.

:07:07
Saying it's Gus Pierce.
:07:09
Jesus.
:07:10
They're saying
he killed himself.

:07:13
Who are?
:07:14
I'm just telling you
what the dean told me.

:07:17
A bright boy,
no doubt about it.

:07:20
But he'd been behaving oddly
these last few weeks.

:07:23
In what ways?
:07:24
He wouldn't change
his clothes.

:07:26
Wouldn't go to classes,
stayed in bed day after day.

:07:29
He was in Chalk House,
you see.

:07:33
Well no, actually,
we don't see.

:07:36
What exactly is
the significance of that?

:07:38
Only that it's our most
venerable boy's house.

:07:41
We have four.
:07:43
Sharpe, Otto, Denton
and Chalk.

:07:49
Everyone wants to be
in Chalk.

:07:51
Gus was there because of his
perfect scores in his aptitude tests.

:07:55
There are distinct advantages
to being there.

:07:57
They have a maid,
for instance.

:07:59
A maid?
