Mrs. Aylwood : Did you hurt yourself?
Jan Curtis : Oh, it's just a little cut. I thought... I thought I saw something out there in the woods.
Mrs. Aylwood : What sort of person are you?
Jan Curtis : That's hard to say. Just average, I guess.
Mrs. Aylwood : Are you adventurous? And kind? Are you kind?
Jan Curtis : I... try to be.
Mrs. Aylwood : And sensitive? Do you sense things?
-
Ellie Curtis : Boy, Mrs. Aylwood sure is creepy.
Paul Curtis : How comforting to know we're the "right sort of people."
Ellie Curtis : I've seen the iciest of old ladies melted by your charm.
Mrs. Thayer : I think it was your daughter who did the trick.
Ellie Curtis : Me?
Mrs. Thayer : No, dear, not you.
[to Jan]
Mrs. Thayer : She had a daughter about your age.
Jan Curtis : Had?
Mrs. Thayer : Mm, lost. Many years ago. Perhaps you reminded Mrs. Aylwood of her.

Jan Curtis : Something awful happened here. I can feel it. Something awful.

Jan Curtis : Mr. Keller I had to see you, it's about Karen Aylwood.
John Keller : What about Karen Aylwood?
Jan Curtis : She needs help.
John Keller : How would you know that?
Jan Curtis : I've seen her.
John Keller : Where?
Jan Curtis : In mirrors!
John Keller : Oh, mirrors. You say you see yourself as Karen?
Jan Curtis : No! It was her image. Why was she blindfolded at the chapel? I've got to find out what happened that night, it's important to me.
John Keller : Why dear? It's none of your business!
Jan Curtis : Don't you see? She needs my help, she's trapped somewhere...
John Keller : That's enough! I have better things to do than listen to hysterical fantasies. What happened to Karen was a tragedy that touched us all, changed us all and it's best forgotten.
Jan Curtis : Have you ever forgotten?
John Keller : Clear out of here!
Jan Curtis : Mr. Keller, please!
