ADD TRIVIA-
We find out that Ned plays volleyball, and that he desperately wants to help Melinda with her ghost stuff.
-
There are three other ghosts appearing but they don't get in touch with Melinda: the little girl in the hospital play area, the gang member with a shot in his head and the lady who is reading the newspaper in the waiting area of the hospital.
-
In "Dead Man's Ridge" Dennis Mcloughlin was having out of body experiences, too, and didn't have the same blue glow that Hugh Bristow has now.
-
If the words on Jim's back were written from the inside, the letters should be mirrored and they should appear from right to left on his back, so why are the letters all facing in the right direction, and why do they appear from left to right.
-
Professor Payne translates the Latin phrase "mors dilecti" to "death of a loved one" in the last scene, and Melinda turns to her husband, indicating that he is the person referred to. But the translation is not entirely correct, since the Latin word "dilectio" actually translates to "brotherly love" (in contrast to "amor" for "romantic love"), so Jim should be out of mortal danger.
-
In his first translation of the writing on Jim's back, "mors dilecti", Professor Payne obviously confused it with the phrase "corpus delicti", which actually means "body of a crime".
