Episode Quotes
 
Host: When I was 12, I met a magician, Harry Blackstone, who told me to live forever. I decided I could. Mr. Blackstone introduced me to clowns, acrobats, fire-eaters, fat ladies, and some little people, dwarfs. I've never forgotten. Every time I see certain kinds of strange mirrors, this is what I see.
 
Aimee: There are rats in the walls.
Ralph Banghart: It's me, Aimee.
Aimee: Like I said.
