[Steve Freeling closes his eyes, clasps his hands, and appears to be concentrating for several seconds]
Diane Freeling: [quietly] Answer her, Steven!
Steve Freeling: [sotto voce] I *am*.
Tangina: [steps out to the top of the stairs] I

Dr. Lesh: We believe it's the heart of the house.
Tangina: This house has many hearts.
[Tangina steps away from the stairtop. Diane approaches Steven]
Diane Freeling: [quietly] What is

Steve Freeling: [with laughter] "What's the matter"?
Steve Freeling: [he composes himself, whispers] I was trying to answer her with my mind and she couldn't hear me.
Steve Freeling: [to Dr. Lesh, whispering even softer] Now, I thought you said this Tangina Barrons was an *extraordinary*...
Tangina: I *am*!
Steve Freeling: ...clairvoy...
Tangina: [steps out again] I just don't like trick answers.
Steve Freeling: I was trying to answer her with my mind and she couldn't hear me. Now I thought you said this Tangina Barens was an extraordinary...

Steve Freeling: ...clairvoy...
Tangina: [steps out again at the top of the stairs] I just don't like trick answers.
