Well...
[chuckles nervously] Hi, Sister Helley.
Why weren't you two on the bus?
- Uh, Kat needed me to be a witness?
- It's my fault.
Didn't want to see
my parents' grave alone.
I see.
Well, we have a long, cold walk back.
[eerie music playing]
Eh, she'll show up at some point.
Meanwhile...
I say it's time to test the cream!
Look, a fresh-dug grave!
- Time to eat dirt, Sparky!

- [Wendell grunts]
Ooh, that is one
messed-up man of the cloth.
Sure, but if we can raise him up,
we can raise up anyone in the cemetery.
[grunts curiously]
- [Wild] Wendell?
- Mm-hmm?
[Wild] It's not working.

Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

You're a Hell Maiden.

I'm... kind of an expert.
And you do not want

Why do you care about me?
I care because I was just like you.
[Kat] Oh, so you were stupid too!
- You aren't stupid, Kat.
- Stupid enough to get my parents k*lled!
Stupid enough to just watch 'em drown,

Sure! Have 'em all cleaned up,

Gah!
By the way, do you plan to raise
anyone else from the dead?

No, no! No, no, no, no, no!
If you raise anyone else in the cemetery...
It's no funfair, no RBC money!

will be raised. [chuckles]

It was this kid, Raúl.
Raúl?

I... I don't have friends.

- Maybe.
If he's in danger,
then we gotta go help him.

We've finally won the vote!
Uh...
Mummy, Daddy,
I know the truth about your prisons.
And what is that, Siobhan?
Well, you make a pile of money
for every prisoner you take.
So you pack them in like sardines,
provide crap food, crap medical,
dangerous conditions,
and zero rehabilitation.
[laughs]
I am proud of you, dear.
That's our business model, exactly.
Don't some people deserve
a second chance? Like Kay-Kay?
Oh, we love those Break the Cycle kids.

Then, we make it impossible
for them to succeed there.
And when they fail...
