Cole's mother and Dr. Crowe are seated across from each other, not talking, when the apartment door opens and Cole comes home. She tries to get him to talk, by playing a game where she says three things happened to her as if they were true, but are obviously only wishes: winning the lottery, quitting her jobs, eating a picnic and swimming all day in a fountain. Cole's things (wishes) are being picked first for kickball, winning the game, and being carried on his teammate's shoulders. Then Dr. Crowe tries a game with a similar purpose: he must guess something (pretending to "read" Cole's mind), with right or wrong guesses indicated by Cole taking a step forward or back:

Color is a constant theme of the movie, with trees filled with lush green leavess contrasting with piles of brown leaves on the ground in the fall. Cole barely manages to open the heavy red door of a church (red is used throughout to indicate the supernatural).<ref>"Red is an important color in this film. It is used to underscore important links to the supernatural. Red in our culture is a symbol of blood, and hence, death.  It is also a bright color that pulls the eye. It underscores.  Shyamalan gives it a spiritual connection as well." [http://hollywoodjesus.com/sixth_sense.htm] </ref>
