The movie then cuts to Adam shooting film of Jill with the intention of turning it into a movie about her and her paintings. He jokingly asks to film a sex tape and despite Jill initially declining, he then films the two of them trying to have sex in various locations. During a drive home Adam points out The Vergerus Institute for Troubled Women, an abandoned hospital rumored to have given various women abortions. He idly mentions that he'd like to hold a party there and have Jill display her paintings, which prompts Jill to push the two into exploring the hospital. The two are nearly caught by a passing policeman, which prompts them to stay in the hospital and explore until they're sure he's left. During this time Adam talks Jill into letting him tie her down to an operating table, after which he pretends to leave her. While he's gone a female ghost attacks and possesses Jill. When Adam returns Jill shows no outward sign of her state and agrees to a sexual encounter with Adam, during which she suffers a nose bleed.

John May est un fonctionnaire communal qui vit seul. Son travail consiste à retrouver les parents les plus proches de personnes mortes dans une solitude totale. Il effectue son travail avec le soin le plus méticuleux et mène une vie tranquille et ordinaire, faite de rites quotidiens qui en deviennent obsessionnels. Un jour, on lui confie le cas de Billy Stoke, un alcoolique mort dans la solitude à quelques pas de sa propre maison. Il commence alors à recueillir des indices sur sa vie et à chercher les personnes auxquelles il a été lié. Mais, à cause de la crise économique, on lui fait savoir que son service est en passe d'être réduit, qu’il est en surnombre et va être licencié. Il ne se laisse pas abattre et convainc son chef de lui donner encore un peu de temps pour terminer sa dernière enquête. Pendant ses recherches, il fait la connaissance de Kelly, la fille que Billy Stoke a abandonnée dans son enfance et, au cours de ses voyages à la recherche des personnes qui ont connu Stoke, John a l'occasion de savourer à nouveau la vie. Cela ne durera pas longtemps et il mourra lui-même dans une solitude totale, comme tous ceux qu’il avait suivis pendant son travail, lesquels, dans un final onirique et fascinant, lui rendront un hommage reconnaissant.
