Complete story — includes the ending

Eli treats a patient who is a shut-in and has serious OCD about security. After discovering that his sister died when she was 9 years old, Melinda and Eli think that she is the ghost that's haunting him, but when Mel hears an audio clip of what everyone else thinks is footsteps, she realises it is an unborn baby's heartbeat, meaning that the ghost is/was pregnant. Mel and Eli must work out who the ghost is and stop her son from doing something stupid for revenge. Melinda is worried when Aiden reveals he has 'shiny' friends who are not ghosts, because she can't see them.
