00:31 That is so not fair.
00:33 What's not fair?
00:35 You know that club that I belonged to at school?
00:37 The ring club?
00:39 Oh, you mean that snobby club with the jocks and what not?
00:42 It's a service club.
00:44 Andy tried to get in and they turned him down.
00:47 Didn't you say something?
00:49 Sure, I told them what a great guy he is and they'd be lucky to have him and...
00:54 They turned him down anyway.
00:56 Snobs.
00:58 Look, he probably knows by now, so when he gets here, don't say anything.
01:03 No problem.
01:05 Hey guys.
01:07 Andy, I'm sorry.
01:09 You okay?
01:10 It's okay. I'm not upset.
01:12 But it's not fair.
01:14 Well, things aren't always fair.
01:16 And I got a good story out of it.
01:19 If it's about those guys, it's a horror story.
01:23 Hey, they're not that bad.
01:27 It's a story about trying to join a club.
01:30 And about the different things you could do if you don't get in.
01:35 You could let it go and move on.
01:38 You could get mad.
01:41 Or you could get evil.
01:45 [Music]
01:49 In order for the approval of the Midnight Society, I call this story...
01:56 The Tale of the Photo Finish.
02:00 [Music]
02:07 [Music]
02:16 [Music]
02:23 Those who dare enter this place must pay the ultimate price.
02:30 [Music]
02:37 You four are the last.
02:40 You must pass the test or suffer the consequences.
02:47 These bowls hold the cold intestines of a wild boar.
02:54 You must reach inside and grab a handful.
02:58 [Music]
03:05 Now eat.
03:07 Eat.
03:10 [Music]
03:21 No way. I'm out of here.
03:24 [Music]
03:30 Well, I guess you didn't have the guts.
03:33 [Music]
03:37 Cherry gelatin. Delicious.
03:40 Nicely done, gentlemen. You've passed the test of bravery.
03:45 Only one test remains before you can join the Lion Society.
03:49 [Music]
03:53 Man, I almost puked.
03:56 Did you really thought those were guts?
03:58 Nah, I hate cherry gelatin.
04:00 Oh, man. I can't believe we're getting into the Lion Society.
04:06 I'm gonna ruin this school. Are you psyched?
04:09 I'll be psyched once we're in.
04:12 What could happen? You and I, we're a team. We're in.
04:16 The school's never gonna be the same. All right?
04:19 [Music]
04:27 You three are all that remain of this year's candidates.
04:31 The Lion Society has a long tradition of accepting only the most worthy of members from the students here at Tillinghast Academy.
04:40 We'd be proud to have each of you. Congratulations.
04:45 But one test remains.
04:49 The most difficult of all.
04:52 The tradition is that before a candidate can join the club, they must pull off a bold prank.
05:00 A joke. Something daring, original, and creative.
05:06 All the traits of a lion.
05:09 Oh, and you can't get caught. Good luck.
05:14 [Cheering]
05:21 Chandler, can I speak to you for a minute?
05:24 Sure.
05:26 Congratulations. You're in.
05:29 Really? That's great. But you gotta see my prank first.
05:32 I'm not worried about that.
05:34 But there is a slight problem. Your roommate.
05:39 Oh, Alex? Oh, he's a great guy.
05:42 Is he?
05:43 We don't exactly feel that he's Lion Society material.
05:47 Frankly, we didn't think he'd get this far.
05:51 He's on the honor roll. He's an athlete. He's the best.
05:54 This isn't a discussion. I'm telling you.
05:58 You're in and he's out.
06:01 And if you have any problem with that, you can both be out.
06:04 Don't be an idiot.
06:07 Oh, and would you mind telling me yourself?
06:12 I think it would be easier coming from you.
06:17 [Music]
06:25 Maybe I'll send out a bogus email declaring some sort of a school holiday.
06:30 Or, uh, oh, I know. I'll put something in the school paper.
06:35 Yeah, big headline.
06:37 Lizards from biology lab lost in sewers. Be careful where you sit.
06:42 Hey, what are you gonna do?
06:46 I was thinking of swiping the painting from the hall of headmasters
06:51 and hanging it up on the detention board.
06:53 Hey, that's cool. Man, this is gonna be great.
06:56 We're gonna have a...
06:57 They don't want you, Alex.
07:01 What?
07:03 Renfrew told me. He said you're out.
07:06 But why? I didn't even...
07:08 I don't know.
07:11 Yeah, you do. It's 'cause I'm a scholarship kid.
07:15 I'm not from some rich society family.
07:19 I'm sorry, man.
07:21 So what are you gonna do?
07:26 My grandfather was a lion owl.
07:30 And my father was too. I can't quit.
07:35 Oh, wow. So much for the team.

08:30 (siren blaring)
08:45 - Hey, stop!
08:56 (siren blaring)
08:58 - I'm dead meat.
09:05 - I thought you were gonna hang her on the detention board.
09:08 - The guard showed up, I had to book.
09:11 Search every room.
09:13 Find that painting.
09:15 - Campus security, open up!
09:23 - Quick, he's coming.
09:25 - Oh, I'm fried.
09:27 Try here.
09:27 - Campus security, open up!
09:36 - What am I gonna do?
09:39 - Hold on, let's hide the painting and then...
09:42 Whoa!
09:46 (knocking)
09:51 - Campus security! - Just a minute!
09:54 (dramatic music)
09:56 - Campus security!
10:05 - It's the Hubba.
10:15 Room search.
10:18 - Shh. (dramatic music)
10:23 - Something wrong?
10:36 - No.
10:39 (dramatic music)
10:41 - Sorry to bother you.
10:51 - Oh man, I could've got expelled for that.
11:03 Thanks, man.
11:05 - No problem.
11:06 Anything to get you into the Lion Society.
11:09 (dramatic music)
11:12 - Chandler?
11:29 (dramatic music)
11:32 What was that?
11:43 - What was what?
11:48 - I heard a...
11:48 (dramatic music)
11:53 (dramatic music)
11:55 - Wait, wasn't there a guy in this picture?
12:06 - Why?
12:08 - Well, he's not there anymore.
12:11 - Maybe because he wasn't there in the first place.
12:17 Go to sleep.
12:19 - What about that creaking noise?
12:22 - I don't know.
12:24 The closet.
12:25 - I'm gonna go check the hall.
12:34 (dramatic music)
12:44 (dramatic music)
12:47 (dramatic music)
12:49 (dramatic music)
12:52 (dramatic music)
12:55 - Alex?
13:20 (dramatic music)
13:23 - Wait.
13:25 - You'll wake the dead.
13:26 - Alex, I think you oughta come and see this.
13:36 (dramatic music)
13:39 - The guy in the picture, he's back.
13:42 Chandler!
13:45 (dramatic music)
13:49 (dramatic music)
13:52 - Help, somebody help me!
13:58 Help!
13:58 - What is your problem?
14:00 - Chandler, he was sucked into the picture.
14:03 - What?
14:03 - I swear.
14:04 And there's a kid in the picture.
14:06 He's got a...
14:06 He's gone again.
14:11 But he was on the porch.
14:13 And he had a camera.
14:15 And there were sounds like creaking.
14:17 - You know the Lion Society doesn't want you?
14:21 - Yeah, but--
14:22 - Then don't bother pulling off a prank.
14:25 Good night.
14:26 - But it's not a prank!
14:27 - I said, good night.
14:30 (dramatic music)
14:35 - The portrait of Headmaster Brothman
14:46 was done in the mid-1940s.
14:50 It hung right there until last night when it was stolen.
14:53 - Would you know if there was something under it?
15:01 - Under it?
15:02 Like what?
15:03 - Well...
15:04 Nothing.
15:08 - If you want more information,
15:11 check the old yearbooks in the sacks.
15:16 (dramatic music)
15:18 Lion Society, 1944.
15:44 Bet they were a bunch of jerks back then, too.
15:47 Bent,
15:49 Honkytonk,
15:51 Camera Club.
15:54 Jasper Davis?
15:59 Died 1944.
16:00 (dramatic music)
16:08 the Lion Society.
16:10 (dramatic music)
16:12 (dramatic music)
16:15 - Do you have it?
16:36 - Oh, Professor Barish.
16:38 - Do you have the photo?
16:40 - What photo?
16:42 - The one behind the painting.
16:44 - I don't know what you're talking about.
16:45 - Now don't be coy, Alex.
16:47 If you have it, tell me.
16:48 - I don't have it.
16:50 - Where's Chandler, Alex?
16:51 (dramatic music)
16:54 - You won't believe me.
16:57 - He's in the photo, isn't he?
16:59 - How'd you know?
17:00 - Because my friend is in there, too.
17:02 Jasper Davis and I came to Tillinghast in the same year.
17:08 He was my best friend.
17:10 - That's right.
17:11 I joined the Lion Society and I got Jasper the job
17:15 of taking the official photograph.
17:17 That's us.
17:19 Stuffy looking crew.
17:22 - Not much has changed.
17:23 - No, I suppose not.
17:25 Well, the members decided to play a prank
17:27 and they told Jasper they wanted him to join the club.
17:30 - But he wasn't Lion Society material, right?
17:33 - No.
17:35 Of course, Jasper was thrilled.
17:37 He thought he was gonna finally fit in.
17:39 - He wasn't.
17:40 - No, he wasn't.
17:42 And when they told him that they had no intention
17:45 of accepting him, he got upset and he ran off.
17:49 But the boys wouldn't stop.
17:50 They chased after him, making fun of his clothes
17:54 and the way he spoke.
17:56 Oh, it was inexcusable.
17:58 What an arrogant group of fools.
18:02 - What happened?
18:05 - Jasper ended up running onto the roof.
18:09 It was a terrible accident.
18:12 He fell.
18:13 - And died.
18:15 - Yeah.
18:17 The clubhouse was moved across the campus
18:21 to this building right here.
18:24 And about a month later,
18:26 the photo mysteriously appeared on the wall.
18:29 And that very same night, I saw two boys pulled into it.
18:33 - Yeah, like Chandler.
18:35 No one believes me.
18:38 - No one believed me either.
18:40 I didn't know what to do.
18:42 So I hid it behind the portrait of Brofman,
18:46 hoping one day I'd have the courage
18:48 to find out what happened.
18:50 - So what are we gonna do?
18:51 - I don't know.
18:52 But we can't let that photo get anyone else.
18:56 - What do you want?
19:01 - I'm looking for Chandler.
19:05 - Yeah, well, he's not here.
19:08 (door opens)
19:10 - Did I invite you in?
19:16 - Listen, Alex, about the Lion Society--
19:19 - I don't wanna hear it.
19:21 - You wouldn't have been happy with us, trust me.
19:23 - Whatever, see ya.
19:25 - Where'd you get this old thing?
19:28 - Get away from that.
19:29 - Wait, I know this.
19:33 It's the old Lion Society clubhouse.
19:35 - It is?
19:36 - Well, yes.
19:38 The one that's on the old part of campus.
19:40 Look, there's even a kid on the porch.
19:43 - Don't look at him.
19:44 - And why not?
19:45 - Oh, man!
19:52 Oh, man, oh, man, oh, man.
19:55 Old part of campus?
20:00 (eerie music)
20:03 (car engine roars)
20:06 (eerie music)
20:08 (eerie music)
20:11 (eerie music)
20:23 (eerie music)
20:32 (eerie music)
20:35 (eerie music)
20:40 (eerie music)
20:45 (eerie music)
21:02 (eerie music)
21:05 - Welcome to my club.
21:27 - Jasper Davis?
21:32 But you're dead?
21:34 - Yeah, I know.
21:34 Ouch!
21:36 And it was all their fault.
21:39 They rejected me, you know,
21:40 and then they killed me right outside.
21:43 Well, you're not so high and mighty now, are you, Lions?
21:49 - Where are they?
21:51 - Right there, in the pictures.
21:53 And that's where they're gonna stay forever.
21:55 - But you fell off the building.
21:57 It was an accident.
21:58 - Was it?
21:59 If only they had let me in their stupid club,
22:02 I never would have followed them.
22:03 But no, I wasn't good enough.
22:06 I didn't dress like them.
22:08 I didn't have lots of money.
22:10 Well, I got the last laugh, didn't I?
22:12 Because I took some of them with me.
22:14 And now it's your turn.
22:17 - Jasper, leave him alone.
22:19 - Felix?
22:22 Is that you?
22:23 - Yes.
22:24 - You got old.
22:27 - Felix was my friend,
22:29 but it was more important for him to be a Lion.
22:33 He chased me under the roof with the others.
22:35 - No, I came to help you.
22:38 - Then he covered up my picture for all those years.
22:42 I was all alone.
22:44 - Well, I had to stop you.
22:46 You were gonna take more of the Lions.
22:48 - You're right, I was.
22:51 And now I've got a prime spot saved just for you, old buddy.
22:57 - No, Jasper.
22:58 - Welcome to my club, Felix.
23:00 - Stop it!
23:01 - Looks like that won't work.
23:06 Smile for the birdie.
23:07 - Jasper, no!
23:08 - Your turn.
23:15 Oh, come on, it doesn't hurt.
23:21 (suspenseful music)
23:24 (suspenseful music)
23:27 (suspenseful music)
23:30 - Jasper, don't do this.
23:56 - Sorry, you're gonna be part of my club now.
23:59 - Okay, okay.
24:04 But if I'm gonna be stuck on that wall forever,
24:08 I wanna at least look good.
24:10 - All my photographs look good.
24:12 I'm an excellent photographer.
24:13 - Right, yeah, sure.
24:14 I want a good closeup.
24:18 Get in real nicely close.
24:21 - Say cheese!
24:26 (suspenseful music)
24:29 - No!
24:30 (suspenseful music)
24:33 (suspenseful music)
24:52 (suspenseful music)
24:55 - Hey, Alex.
25:10 Nice shot, man.
25:13 - Chandler!
25:15 Are you guys all right?
25:16 - We are now, thanks to you.
25:19 - Hey, what about those other guys from back in '44?
25:23 - Let's hope they've gone to a better place
25:25 along with Jasper.
25:26 Poor fellow.
25:29 I wish I could be angry with him, but I just feel sad.
25:32 - Good show, Alex.
25:34 I believe we've made a mistake.
25:38 Welcome to the Lying Society.
25:40 You're in.
25:41 Tell you what.
25:43 You line-sided geeks have fun telling each other
25:48 you're better than everyone else,
25:50 and I'll hang with people who have better things to do.
25:53 - You can't be serious.
25:56 Chandler convinced the boy.
25:58 - Of what?
26:00 That he should hang around with a gang of loser snobs?
26:03 I don't think so.
26:04 I'm out too.
26:05 - Yeah, I should have said that years ago.
26:08 - I gotta return the picture of Roffman.
26:13 - Come on.
26:15 (dramatic music)
26:18 - Oh, wait for me.
26:20 Please.
26:23 - The end.
26:29 - Good story, Andy.
26:30 - It was great.
26:30 - That was creepy.
26:31 - So, you're gonna get even for not getting into that club?
26:35 Nah, that's not me.
26:36 And as it turns out,
26:38 they let me in.
26:42 - That's great.
26:43 - Really?
26:44 - It's all 'cause of Tucker.
26:45 He really fought for me,
26:47 and when they still said no, he quit.
26:49 - Really, you quit for Andy?
26:52 That is so cool.
26:54 - But they changed their minds?
26:56 - Well, since you quit,
26:58 there was an extra spot in the club, so--
27:01 - So you took my place?
27:03 Oh, I gotta get to those guys.
27:08 - Did you really take his spot?
27:12 - No.
27:13 I just like seeing him go all snaky like that.
27:16 He's still in.
27:18 And so am I.
