Se- what?
So...

Sometimes high school boys don't have anything to do on a Friday night, so they decide to get together for a seance...you know, for kids! And sometimes high school kids' dads offer to drive them to their friend's house. And sometimes they have the following awkward conversation in the car:
"So, J. What are you up to tonight?"
"Oh, we're going to have a seance, maybe say 'Bloody Mary' 13 times to the mirror at midnight, that kind of thing."
"J, you know things like that can only channel bad spirits, right?"
"Uh...sure, Dad."
"Good. I just want you to make the right decisions because bad spirits can be really terrifying."
(sarcastically) "OK...why? Have you ever encountered one?"
"Yes. And it was the scariest moment of my life. I still remember it after 30 years."
Right... Sometimes your parents can be really religious, and you can get used to the fact that while they are both highly intelligent people, they simply believe very strongly in their faith. But sometimes you're faced with conversations like that and you can't help but think that they just might be a little nutty!
Not that this happened. I'm just saying.
