- Looks like a tracer.

- Looks like a little
eye flicker over there.

I think he might be coming to.

- You can see the fire
in his eyes again.

- It's about time
your sorry butt woke up.

- Hey Tyler.

- I'm glad you're okay, man.

You gave us all a
really big scare there.

Anyway, get well soon, okay?

We got some gigs lined up.

- Not to mention
homework assignments.

Monty, how are you feeling?

- Hey professor.

I've felt better.

Can somebody to tell
me why I'm here?

And why I have such
a massive headache?

- Let's just say

that you gave Humpty
Dumpty a run for his money.

- You had a great fall.

- So then when are
all the king's horses

and all the king's
men showing up?

- I'm afraid you're
looking at 'em.

Monty, you may be wondering
who this gentleman is.

It's Detective Shek.

He would like to ask
you some questions,

but only if you feel up to it.

- Hi Monty.

If this gets to be
too much for you,

we can do it another day.

- Got nothing else
better to do so hit me.

- Apparently you were
walking down the sidewalk

on Westover Avenue
and you collapsed,

hit your head on the pavement.

You've been unconscious here
for the last three days.

- Three days?

- Yeah.

The staff here has
taken some blood tests

and they found traces of
gamma hydroxybutyrate,

GHB in your system.

You ever heard of that?

- No, are you kidding me?

- I wish I was.

You don't seem like
the kind of guy

that would do that consciously.

It's the kind of drug that's
usually given to somebody

without their
consent or knowledge.

It's kind of like
a date rape drug.

- That's awful.

- It was probably given to you

about a half hour
before you collapsed.

Do you remember coming
in contact with anyone

prior to that?

- Off the top of my head.

- Well, what's
left of it anyway.

- Lame.

- I'm drawing a
blank, detective.

- Can we just let this
young man get some rest?

They'll be plenty of
time for questions later.

- Sure.

- Wait, I do remember now.

Professor Derring.

He stopped by the apartment
while I was there.

- What on Earth for?

- That's what I thought.

He dropped off this book.

Kind of weird, you know,

he just popped up unannounced.

- Yeah, it sure is.

Where you one of his students?

- No, but I stopped
by his office one time

to ask him a physics question.

- We can pick this
up another time.

- Monty, we've got to go

but you take care of yourself

and you get plenty
of rest, okay?

- Thank you.

- Yeah, rest up champ, okay?

- Hey Tyler?

- Yeah, what's up?

- Thanks for being there, buddy.

- Daisy.

- Hey professor.

It's sad this happened to Monty.

- I know

but you know he was
actually pretty lucky.

It could've been worse.

But hey, thanks for stopping by.

- Luck?

- What was that?

- You said Monty was lucky
that it wasn't worse.

Did you say that for me

because you know
I'm a non-believer?

Deep down did you
really want to say

that maybe his guardian
angel stepped up?

It's okay, it'll be our secret.

I'll say a prayer
for him just in case.

- You know I,

I've never had a good
feeling about that guy.

- Who?

- My colleague,
Professor Derring.

- Charles.

- Yeah?

- We still haven't given
up on your grandson.

- I know, thank you.

- Shay, where are you?

- Three years
sober, not too shabby.

- But every day is like day one.

- And the flashbacks?

- I thought you therapists
had this magic wand

that you could just
sort of erase them.

- Yeah well I had to send
mine out to be recalibrated.

- Touche.

- Okay, so tell me about
your new job situation.

- Well, you know,
out of the blue,

I got this offer to teach.

- Well folks, once again,

we're having a banner year,

which means we're gonna
be adding an elective.

- Crip course.

- Sorry, crip course?

- Useless and meaningless,

fluff, for lack
of a better word.

- However, whatever we call it,

let's give 'em
their money's worth.

Charles, even though
you're a full professor

from a much larger university,

we've always had the policy
of the last man or woman in

gets to teach the crip course.

- I accept my medicine.

- Thank you for being
such a team player.

I think you're gonna enjoy it.

- I'm sure.

What's it gonna be?

- We're calling it
"Why Religion?".

There's no textbook

so you'll be free to
take it where you want.

- Professor, I,

I don't think I'm the one you
want to teach this course.

I mean well I'm not
really into the Bible

or theology or
anything like that.

- Come on old, man.

You can handle it.

- But then there was
this colleague of mine,

he's just, I don't know.

- Just what?

- Well I guess there's
always one, you know?

- One what?

- I can't put my finger on it,

but something's just not right.

- So Monty, I know you've
been through a lot,

but I want to try to piece
together all the details.

So why don't we
reconstruct everything

starting with when you
first started school here?

- Well Tyler and I were
roommates and best of buds.

We formed this musical duo.

Man, I thought we'd have a
recording contract by now.

- Well all is not
lost, my friend.

At least we'll have some
sort of degree this year.

- Yeah, I'm thinking bigger.

- Well, if we work hard

and with the big guy's approval,

it could happen.

- Better pray harder then.

- I don't think that's
how it works, bro.

- Hey, you owe me one, Tyler.

If you would've
signed up on time,

we wouldn't have been
stuck in this crazy class.

- Listen dude,

I thought I would be
working this semester,

but my uncle threw
me a few bucks.

- Lucky you.

Anyway, I'm psyched
about tonight.

First day of classes always
brings a packed house.

- Man, I'm excited for
that overflowing tip jar.

- Dude, what are you
doing picking up trash?

You turning into some
granola eating hippie freak?

- No man, it's glass.

I collect it everywhere I go.

I've been doing that for awhile.

- Dude, that's weird.

I guess the apple doesn't
fall too far off the tree.

His Uncle Lewis is
an archeologist,

sends him bits of
glass from everywhere.

Like his last dig, he
was in the Middle East.

- All right, all right, look,

let's see what we have.

Now that's it.

Let's call it a day, huh?

- Wait, over here!

- Ah let's see.

Ah look at that.

- What is it?

- Most likely first century,

probably Roman glass.

Then again, it could just
be a broken beer bottle

left behind by
some drunken Turks.

Strange how it's glowing though.

I know just who to send this to.

- Someone who likes
rare antiquities?

- You could say that.

Thank you.

Good job.

See what else is in there.

- And you and Tyler
had Professor Bando

for one of your classes, right?

- Yeah, for the
"Why Religion?" class.

- What was that like?

- Good morning.

I'm professor Charles Bando.

Welcome to "Why Religion?"

- I heard it's a crip
course so easy A.

- Well, isn't it?

- Gentlemen, I may
look over the hill,

but rest assured my
hearing is stellar.

- Sorry, Monty Lawrence.

- And your friend?

- Tyler Samuel, sir.

- Nice start.

- So here we are,
my young friends,

"Why Religion?" and why not?

Our job over the next few weeks

is to make a case if you can,

but don't expect me
to teach you the Bible

and I don't need to
know what faith you are.

- Ah, oui oui, mademoiselle.

Hey, you should come
see us play tonight.

- Ah, are you any good?

- I think we're pretty good.

- Pretty good?

We're really good.

- Okay yeah, we're pretty good.

- And you gonna tell me where?

- Beans and Vines.

- Yeah, past Columbia and Main.

- Okay, so see you guys.

- My glass collection.

I've got a whole
box full of these.

- Hmm, one man's trash is
another man's treasure.

- Glass making goes
back thousands of years

in Egypt and Mesopotamia.

I just, I just hope the class

doesn't think it's too weird.

- Oh dude, the class?

You can't share the class.

They'll find it too weird.

- Really?

- Dude, I'm kidding.

Gosh, lighten up.

- Well, what about you?

You said you didn't
have any hobbies.

- Sound, sound fascinates me.

- In what way?

- What happens with sound
when we no longer hear it?

Does it leave a footprint?

- Yeah, CDs, cassettes, tapes.

- But this conversation,

what happens when
we stop talking?

Is it gone forever?

Now while you're
chewing on that one,

let's get going, we got a gig.

That's when things started
getting a little weird.

Weird, in what way?

- I don't know
how to describe it,

strange things
started happening.

I heard this kind
of whoosh sound

and it gave me
this weird feeling.

Then, after, Tyler tells
me about this phone call

he gets from his Uncle Lewis,

something about this new
artifact he's sending.

- Hey Tyler, I
think I may have something

of interest for you.

I'm gonna send it in the mail.

♫ Heavy line

- Thank you, thank you.
- Thank you.

- Hello, you too.
- Oh hey.

- Wow.

Huh.

Nice find, Uncle Lewis.

- Good afternoon,
how's it going?

- Couldn't be better.

- What can I get for you?

- Shot of whiskey
and a bottled water.

- Sounds like a good choice.

- Hi son, I just want to talk.

Please give me a call
when you get a chance.

I love you.

Dad.

- Saving the best
for last, I see?

- Not today.

Thanks.

- Not gonna throw
that away, are ya?

- I had another close call

but I was able to
pull through it.

- Charles, as of yet,

you haven't really told me

exactly what you're
having flashbacks about,

only that you have them.

- Well, it's a long story.

My wife, my son,
my daughter-in-law
don't talk to me.

We haven't spoken
for three years.

- I understand.

Well, tell me about the classes
you taught last semester.

- Well, the class that I
had least looked forward to

I actually liked the best.

It's got a great bunch of kids.

- Professor, if your lesson's
a complete flop today,

blame Tyler and Monte.

They played so well no
one wanted to leave.

- That good, eh?

- Yeah so so.

- All right, gang,
let's get to it.

Why do people
engage in religion?

- Well I mean isn't it whether
you just believe or not?

- No, it's not that easy.

- Well explain
yourself, Miss Tenna.

- It doesn't explain

all the different
religions or churches.

- You would've thought they
would've narrowed them down

after a few thousand
years, right?

- I think church goers are lazy.

- Well that's a
pretty profound statement.

Do you mean churchgoers
or just believers?

- Both, I have no
use for religion.

- For now.

- What was
that, Mr. Samuels?

- I said she has no use for now.

- Well how about I play
the devil's advocate

and ask you to explain yourself?

- Devil's advocate, doesn't
that assume the devil exists?

- Well, what do you believe?

- I believe in the power
of the Lord Jesus Christ

and that the devil
exists in his absence.

Hey, hey, so thanks for
that hearty endorsement

of our performance last night.

- Just trying to make you
better, challenging you.

- So a cup of coffee
at the Beans tonight?

- Mmm, you will
be serenading me?

- No, I could never do
that to my worst enemy.

- Good, see you at eight.

- Ready man?

- Let's do it.

- All right.

- Asking me for coffee
twice in a week,

I'm not sure about that.

- Okay, well Tuesday
was for coffee.

On Fridays, I work
on fan appeal.

- Is it hard work?

- If they're as tough as
you yes, it's hard work.

- Oh the kids are
making me feel old.

- Must be tough.

- Hey, you're not exactly
a spring chicken yourself.

- White wine for the
lady, a red for myself.

Make sure they're
both in a real glass.

- Don't worry, we won't
bring out the styrofoam

until at least your third glass.

- Just get the wine.

- What's with the no glass look?

You doing a Harold
Lloyd impression?

- That's for me to know
and for you to find it.

- So basically, Tyler
gets this crazy idea

to take the artifact
he got from his uncle

along with some of the
other pieces of glass

and solder them together.

Hey, why'd you decide to
do this with the glasses?

- My uncle recently just
sent me another piece

and I thought, you know,
it was being put to waste.

So I put all my glass in to
a piece of lens and you know,

it's pretty cool, look at the
world through colored glass.

Yeah listen, I
was gonna ask you,

how do you feel about
playing everything tonight,

you know, even the
Christian songs we wrote?

- Okay, I mean if you
feel that confident.

- Oh I do.

- All right, I mean I guess so.

- All right, well we
gotta head out though,

because it's soon and we
got practice there, okay?

- But wait, do me a favor,

just make sure you
don't blow our careers.

- Alrighty, let's go.

- I wanted to get this-

- Hey man, some guy just
ran past me out front

with a long stick or tool.

He just ran out back,

you might want to go catch him.

- Um, nice glasses.

- Forgot I had 'em on.

- Well, it's probably
just a street bum

and I'll check it out
when I go on break.

- Okay.

- That boy needs help bad.

- He does, really bad.

These kids these days.

- Tell me more

about this Professor Derring.

- To be honest, he kind
of strikes me as rather

distant and cold.

- Excuse me, Monty?

Detective Shek,
how can I help you?

- Detective,
this is Charles Bando.

I was just checking
to see if Lee and Ben

had made it in to sign the
declaration of death for Shay.

- No, they never
showed up or called.

I'll let you know when they do.

- Thanks detective.

- Welcome professor.

It looks like you're making
the most of that crip course.

- And how's that, JL?

- Marguerite and I

were at the Beans
and Vines Coffee Shop

a couple of days ago-

- And a couple of your
students going on and on

about how your lectures were
so divisive and you know,

upsetting, disturbing.

- I actually think
they call that passion.

And as both of you know,
young folks have a lot of that

or maybe I'm just
interesting enough

that the students
actually learn.

Oh I'm sorry I have to go,

but you two have a nice day.

- You too.

- So the one thing
that concerns me

is that recently I had a
flashback during my class.

Miracles and coincidence-

- You left off one other
important word professor.

- All right Daisy, enlighten us.

- Hoax.

- Interesting, but
why would someone

want to try to fool someone

into believing something
that isn't true?

- I think a lot of them

are just trying to
convince themselves.

- Yeah, they're just looking
for someone or something

to justify their beliefs.

- How can you say it?

Miracles happen all the time,

we're just not paying attention.

- I agree, the old saying

if a tree fall in the forest,

we cannot hear them all.

- Good point.

- I have another angle.

What if people were in the
wrong place at the wrong time

or the right place
at the right time?

- No!

- I'm done, I am done with you.

- Wait, wait!

- Mr. Bando, we were
interested in what you think.

- Um,

listen class, I'm going to
hold my opinions for now.

I asked for your
unabashed thoughts

and we got them.

So let's turn to the assignment

on our hobbies and interests.

You know I thought this
would really be a good way

that we could maybe
get a better feel

for where we're all coming from.

The floor is yours.

- I'm a sound man.

- Seems natural for a musician.

Must be a gift.

- From who?

Where did he get that gift?

- From God, of course.

- Yeah right.

You mean his parents.

- I've always wondered

whether sounds leaves
behind a fossil.

Like wouldn't it
be great to hear

and listen to what people said

long before they had recordings?

- So let me guess,

so you can like hear Jesus's
words in his own voice?

- Yeah kinda.

- Whatever.

- You're not from the valley.

- What do you know?

I'm originally
from Encino, dork.

- Oh all right now, that's
enough, no putdowns.

Tyler?

- So this might sound
a little strange,

but I collect unique
pieces of broken glass.

I've been doing it
since I was a kid

and I just look for
it wherever I go.

- This is true, I have
seen him in action.

- Any particular reason?

- I believe that pieces of
glass can capture an image

of what was happening
at that time.

- Interesting.

- Are you ready now to tell
me exactly what happened

the day your grandson
was kidnapped?

- It was a typical
Sunday, beautiful day.

My son and daughter-in-law
were out of town

so we had Shay for the weekend.

- I slept wonderfully.

- Me too, grandma.

Here's your breakfast.

Grandpa and I woke up
early just to surprise you.

- Well actually Shay
did most of the work.

I really didn't help that much.

- This is so sweet.

It looks absolutely delicious.

Oh Charles, it's
such a beautiful day.

Let's do something really
fun and neat with Shay

before we take him home.

- I think that's great

so we'll go right after church.

- Can't we just
skip church today?

- Well, I mean it's only an hour

and well I kind of think we
need to set a good example

for Shay and besides,

I kind of think that's what
Ben and Lee would want.

I'll be right there, Shay.

We don't want to be late.

- He's all ready to go.

- All right, you take care.

- I will babe.

I'll see you in
just a little bit.

- I'll see you
after church, yeah?

Okay Shay, let's go.

- Oh hey Shay.

Hey good morning, Charles.

How are you?

- Hey Charles, we might
need a little help

with some of the elders.

- Okay, all right.

Hey, good morning, Mrs.
McKendree, how are you?

- I need to go to the bathroom.

- Oh, can you wait until
I seat Mrs. McKendree?

- Charles, I can take him.

- Okay well, it's
always a pleasure

when you're here with us.

- Oh I'm so glad to be here.

- No, no, I'll take him.

- Oh thanks.
- Come on, Shay.

- Oh good, here's your seat.

It's available, good, good.

- Thank you so much Charles.

- Watch your hand.

- Barry, where's Shay?

- I was washing my hands,

I turned around he
was out the door.

I thought he'd be
back in his seat.

- Folks, let's take
a moment to pray.

- Shay!
- Shay!

- Where are you?

- Shay!

- What happened there
affected everybody

and many left.

The giving dropped
down to almost nothing.

The pastor had to step down.

It was a royal mess.

I, the whole church,

we searched the entire
building, we, every office,

every classroom.

- Oh no, have you been drinking?

Have you really
been drinking again?

Charles, I can't do it.

I can't do it.

I am not gonna do this anymore.

We've been over it and over it.

- No honey-

- I am done!

I am done with you
and your excuses.

- Wait, wait!

You've got to listen
to me because-

- No, I'm not gonna-

- He was my grandson, too.

- You make me sick.

- I never had a drop that day.

- Get off of me.

- Don't you believe me?

- I've had it, I'm done.

I'm not doing this anymore.

Don't you get it?

- Not a word.

Not a trace.

My wife blames me and-

- I can't even imagine
what it's like for you,

for all of you.

So your daughter-in-law
and wife both blame you

because they
suspect you might've

gone back to drinking again?

- I didn't have
a drink that day.

Now I admit I came
close to a relapse

but you know I was able
to keep it together,

but nobody, including my son,

none of the family
will talk to me.

My wife is planning
to divorce me

and it's all based on
a false accusation.

- Charles, I admire
you remaining sober.

And from what I can tell

what happened is not
your fault whatsoever.

- Well, thank you.

- There's a recording,

a never ending loop
going around your head.

So you need to listen to
me, Dr. Charles Bando,

you're a good man.

You hear me?

A good man.

Yeah, you've messed up
in life, we all have,

but at your core, in
your heart of hearts,

you want to do the right thing.

- But how do I convince my wife

and my son and my
daughter-in-law?

Because all they know is
that their son is gone

and that it happened on my watch

and I'm the drunk
that let it happen.

I,

You know I so hope that
we can find that monster

who took my grandson.

- Mrs. Bando, how long
has he been like this?

- It started this morning and

he just started to get
worse as the day went on.

- We need to run tests now.

- Oh gosh honey,

oh you're burning up.

- I was curious about Bando

so I tried to find
out a few things.

Our college won't release
very much about him

other than to say he was
quite the history professor.

- And?

- I think he's a liar.

He told Professor Knowles

he wasn't into the Bible,
theology or anything like that.

He's running

or he's hiding.

Listen, I have an idea.

- So back to these glasses,

you're seeing
really weird things.

So then what happened?

- Sorry.

- Dude, what did you lose?

- Nothing.

Hey, hey, where'd you
put those glasses?

- They're in my pocket man.

I told Dreann that I'd show
them to her at the park.

Let her see all the
different colors it makes.

- And other things.

- What?

- Nothing, nothing.

- All right.

- Hey.

- What?

- So after, after, do
you mind if I use 'em?

- I don't know yet.

Are you ready to practice?

- Yeah, don't forget.

We got to rehearse tonight.

- Yeah, I know.

- Right.

By now, I'm obsessed with what
those glasses can really do.

So I decided to test
them out one more time.

So I waited for Tyler to
get back from his date

with that really
hot French girl.

I mean Tyler still
really doesn't know

what those glasses can do.

- Wow, what a show.

Check these out.

Well?

- Uh, I just see trees and dirt.

- What?

Well you got to get
your eyes checked

'cause this is amazing.

Look, try again.

- Oh my God.

Oh you're right.

Oh.

- Well it seemed

every time I went to
that convenience store

weird stuff would happen.

So I intentionally brought the
glasses with me just in case.

Oh um, what'd you do to him?

I'll call the police.

Don't come any closer.

If you're homeless, I'll buy
you a sandwich or something.

The civil war reenactment group
meets monthly at the local,

what did you do to him?

Is he okay?

- Are you a local courier?

Tell Mrs. Steale that Noah,

he fought really bravely
right until the end.

- Hey I forgot to ask

what are you presenting as your
hobby or interest for class?

- I will talk about dolls.

- Dolls, that's pretty unique.

- Do you know that dolls making

go all the way back to ancient
Egypt, Greece and Rome?

- I did not know that.

- And started in
15th century Germany?

- That's new to me,
that's very different.

- Not that different
than broken glasses.

- Aren't you maybe
a little worried

that the class will think it's
a little out of the ordinary

that somebody your age
is collecting dolls?

- I knew this really young

that it's less painful

when you don't make
other people opinion

more important than yours.

- You know, a lot of
people pay a lot of money

to learn what you did as a kid.

- I really liked what
you said in class.

- Which was?

- You know the power of
the Lord Jesus Christ.

Wow, this takes
a lot of courage.

- I don't know about courage,

just staying true
to my convictions.

- And this makes
me like you more.

- Okay.

I'll see in class, right?

- Morning, Charles.

How are you today?

- Just fine.

How about yourself?

- You know, I
couldn't be better.

This is a little hard for me,

but I was wondering if maybe
we could go for a cup of coffee

or a drink sometime.

- Well I must say that
I'm really flattered

that such an attractive,
intelligent woman

would be interested in me

but I'm married.

- Oh I'm, I'm sorry.

When I didn't see a
ring on your left hand,

I just thought you
were a free man.

- Well, it's personal reasons

but thanks for asking.

- Bye.

- Good Monday morning all.

Our word for today is death.

And for some that may
bring cold chills,

but to others it
represents a new beginning.

- Yeah right.

- Dad and Daisy at it again.

- Would you
like to say something?

- I would.

Why do people have such
a hard time with this?

Why can't they just admit,
lights out, game over?

- Because that's permanent.

Death doesn't
offer much to life.

Jesus knew that we
would fear dying.

That's why he told us that
eternal life would be ours

if we walk in his steps.

- Oh please.

- Look, you can either believe

that all of us are accidental,

meaningless lumps of protoplasm

meandering around with
no purpose or value or,

or that we are created beings
made in the image of God

with an eternal destiny,

with purpose and value,

placed here to fulfill
a divine master plan.

- All right class,
on a lighter note,

are there any
interests or hobbies

that you'd like to disclose?

- I didn't want to leave
my prized glass in a box

so I turned them into glasses.

Professor, professor,
are you okay?

- Yeah somehow it just,

just sort of made
me a little dizzy.

- So Monty,
tell me the first time

you made contact with
Professor Derring.

- Well, after I had

that weird thing happen
at the convenience store,

since I knew he taught physics,

I thought I'd stop
by, pick his brain.

- Hold on.

Jesus.

- Hey, I heard you're
a physics teacher.

- Go on.

- I've always been
interested in sound

and what happens to
it when it stops?

- I recognize you now.

You're one of the musicians
from the coffee and wine house.

Look, if you've come here

for me to help you with
a project, I'm too busy.

- No, no that's not it.

I read in one of
the theory journals

that time could be
happening all around us

just at a different pace.

- I'm aware of that theory.

- So theoretically,

something that may have happened
50 or even 100 years ago,

could be happening all
around us now, right?

- That's right.

If the theory's correct.

But it doesn't matter.

There's no way to
prove it or see it.

Did you watch a
movie or something

that got you
thinking about this.

- No, I guess I'm just curious.

- Oh.

- Well, what do you
think it would take

to make the past visible?

- A miracle.

- Thanks professor.

Hey, ever heard of a Noah
Steale from the Civil War?

- Sounds familiar, I'm not sure.

Those are some seriously
funky looking glasses.

Where'd you get them?

- From a friend.

Well hey professor,
I'll see you around.

Thanks again.

- Noah Steale?

- What is so interesting?

- Just daydreaming.

Hey man, you mind if I
use those glasses later,

just for a bit, I'll be quick?

- I'm gonna start
charging you, man.

Hey, you in love or something?

- No, man, that
would be you, champ.

Just got a lot on
my mind, that's all.

- Alright well, don't
forget we have rehearsal

and if you remember,
we have a gig Friday.

- That's right.

Thank you, I appreciate it.

See ya.

- That's who we're waiting for.

- The musician kid?

- That's right.

- And why exactly
are we following him?

- It's just a hunch, but
I think this Monty kid

is seeing Noah Steale.

- Noah Steale.

Who in God's name
is Noah Steale?

- Well that's just it.

You, a college professor,

doesn't know an obscure
local but noble person.

Then how does an out-of-town
21 year old know about him?

- Well maybe met him.

- Perhaps, but he died
over 150 years ago.

- And you made this
fantastical astronomical

leap of logic because?

- I know it sounds crazy but-

- Do you?

- Somehow, I think he's
found a way to see him.

- Okay.

Guess we're waiting
for Noah Steale, right?

- Bingo.

He's not out here for nothing.

That's it, that's what
I was waiting for.

- It was?

- Young man, how's it going?

- Oh, hey Professor Derring.

- I see you got those dope
looking windows on again.

- Yeah.

- I'll bet the
view is super cool.

Mind if I try 'em on?

- Sure.

Pretty cool view, huh?

- Yeah, thanks for
letting me try 'em on.

- Yeah.

Hey, come on out to
Beans and Vines Friday,

we're gonna be playing again.

- I'll try to do that.

You take care.

- Thanks professor.

- Then there was
this grateful night

that I got the call that
no one ever wants to get.

- You doing okay?

- What do you think?

- Charles, I was
gonna call you next week

but I may as well tell you now.

- What is it?

- I got a call
from your son, Ben.

- What'd he say?

- They're going ahead
with the declaration of death.

- Mine too.

- The truth is Rob,

you've become a liability
that we can't afford.

- What does that mean?

- We can't afford to
make payments on the
church any longer.

We're gonna bulldoze and
sell the land outright.

It's in a good location so
I'm sure we'll find a buyer.

- You can't do that.

The people will come back,

just give it a little more time.

- I'm afraid we've
run out of time, Rob.

Three years is long enough.

- Now what?

- You've got 30 days.

Also, the entire
board is voting.

We will no longer be
supporting you financially.

- We are all very sorry, Rob.

And we thank you so very
much for everything you did.

- That's it.

- I want you to know I've been
praying for you, Reverend,

and I know God has a plan.

- Well, I appreciate
your prayers.

No man of the cloth should
feel as useless as I do.

- Ben, I love you, honey.

Oh I'm so sorry you're
in so much pain.

- Mr. And Mrs. Bando, I
have the test results.

- Yes, he's gonna be okay right?

- Well it looks like
you have some form

of Legionnaires' disease,

which one we don't know.

- What does that mean?

- It's a type of pneumonia.

And there is a possibility
that you could go into a coma

and not recover.

I'm sorry.

But we're doing everything
possible to fight this.

- Everyone encounters tests

where everything they
hold near and dear to them

comes crashing down

and it forces them to
come face to face with us,

our feelings and what
makes us who we are.

Something men in particular
have difficulty dealing with

is feelings.

They're taught all
through childhood

they have to squash
their emotions.

They're told not
to be a cry baby.

And I'm sure with your
military background,

that's especially difficult.

The problem with that

is that God created
those emotions in you.

They're meant to be expressed.

In my opinion,

your experiences over
the last three years

are equivalent to
post-traumatic stress disorder.

- Yes, it has been.

- Call dad.

- Ben I'm sorry honey,
what did you say?

What'd ya say sweetie?

- Call dad.

I want to see him before I go.

It's okay.

- Hello?

- This is your
daughter-in-law, Leigh.

- Hey Leigh, how are you?

- This isn't a social call.

- Okay.

Where's Ben?

- That's why I'm calling.

- I know, I mean I know

about the declaration
of death signing.

- Ben wants to talk.

- Okay.

Okay, what's your new address?

- I'll text it to you.

I got to go, bye.

- My son wants to talk
to me after three years.

- See, what did I tell you?

Put that away, go see your son.

- God bless you, Charles.

- I got a text from Leigh

and the address brought
me here to the hospital

so why are you here?

- I don't know.

I got a phone call from someone

who said they needed me here.

- Someone, no name?

- No name but I got
it on the phone.

It's not there.

- Hmm.

- We didn't call you, reverend.

- I didn't call anyone.

- He's dying, Charles.

And if it would be
up to Laura and me,

neither one of us
would've called you.

- Dad.

Thanks for coming.

- Oh, no, I'm the one who-

- Please, don't say anything.

I need to talk 'cause
I think I'm dying.

- No, no.

- Don't tell Leigh.

I love you, dad.

You're a good man.

How stubborn and
unforgiving I was.

It wasn't your fault.

It wasn't your fault.

- Excuse me, Mr. Bando,
he needs to rest now.

- Okay.

- You know Charles,

I thought losing Shay
was enough for one man.

- I've lost my grandson

and now it looks like
I'm losing my son.

So far so good.

- What's that?

- It's for the kid.

- What?

- Relax, it'll just
keep him asleep

long enough for us to get
ahold of those glasses.

- I don't know about that, JL.

- We scientists know
that every experiment

begins with a
theory, a hypothesis.

Doesn't necessarily mean
it's scientific or true,

but it's worth looking into.

It's what we do.

Besides, what have
we got to lose?

- Our jobs, our credibility,
getting thrown in jail.

Other than that, I mean-

- Wait here.

- JL!

JL!

Oh.

- Oh, hey professor.

Come on in.

- Thanks.

- What do I owe the
honor of this visit?

- I've been thinking

about the question you
asked me about time.

It's refreshing

to see students wanting
to expand their knowledge.

I was close by

so I thought I'd bring
you the title of a book

that you might find
interesting on the subject.

- Thanks.

- Yeah.

Y'all have another
gig tonight I see?

- Yeah, Beans and Vines.

- Tell me, how did
you get interested

in the whole space-time
continuum thing?

- I guess I just
kinda stumbled on it.

- Yeah.

- Well hey professor,

I got to go, I'm gonna
be late for the show.

- Oh, oh yeah sure,

I won't take any
more of your time.

Hey, good luck tonight.

- Thank you, I appreciate it.

- Um, maybe I'll see you there.

- Yeah, yeah.

- So how many
members in your band?

- It's just a few, it's just
me and Tyler from school.

- All right, have fun tonight.

- Thank you.

- Well, you get them?

- Another couple of
minutes I would have.

I forgot to factor in
his youth and fitness.

Title of a book you
might find interesting.

- Looks like a tracing.

♫ A good time is all we
need to have a good life ♫

- Thank you, thank you.

I'm gonna take a short break.

I'm sure my better
half will be here soon.

Professor, thank you
so much for coming.

I'm solo right now

but I think you'll
like this next song.

- I'm sure it's gonna be great.

- Yeah, all right,
here we go again.

I wrote this song
with my friend, Monty.

- Tyler, can I see you?

- Just a few moments, people.

♫ If you think that you
have lost your way ♫

♫ All you feel inside
are clouds of gray ♫

♫ Let me tell you
what I learned ♫

- You seemed really
tired, professor.

- Yeah, I've been driving out
of town several nights a week

because I have a person
that I'm very close to

that's in the hospital.

- I'm sorry to hear that.

I'll make sure to say a prayer.

- What do you think happened?

- I really don't know.

Last two weeks, he's
been very secretive.

- You think it's psychological?

- No, no, I don't
think it's that.

He's been very possessive
of those glasses I made.

I hardly got the
chance to use them.

- Is that it?

- He said he had to deliver
a message for some guy named

Noah Steale.

- Noah Steale.

- Anyway.

I overheard some of the nurses

and they're not positive.

- Would you like us
to pray together?

- Honestly professor,
I'm all out of prayers.

- I was wondering if
you happened to know

where your uncle picked
up that piece of glass

that he mailed to you?

- I don't know,
Middle East, why?

- But just curious, any
place in particular?

- I don't know.

Jerusalem maybe,

I think it said something,
the place of the skull.

- All right I'll see you soon.

- Lot of people
worried about you.

Your buddy Tyler, your
schoolmates, Professor Bando,

all the people at
Beans and Vines.

- Monty, where
are those glasses?

- Hello, Mr. Bando?

- Yes.

I'm Dr. Fernandez at
St. Joseph's Hospital.

- Okay.

- I promised to keep you updated

on your son's condition.

- Yeah, how is he?

- Well, I hate
to have to tell you this,

but this morning he
slipped into a coma.

- Hey, where's dad?

- Ben, Ben.

Oh baby.

- Detective, this is Charles.

I need you to listen
and don't interrupt.

I need you to run these plates

and find out who they belong to.

South Carolina JTV 2656.

Also, I need you to get Barry
Crane back in for questioning.

I know, I know, but technically
he didn't kidnap Shay,

he had someone else do it.

- Hey Gills, I'm
gonna take him to number one.

- Hello?

- Charles, I
don't know how you did it,

but we did find the
owner of that vehicle.

He lived by himself.

- Great.

- But he died of
a heart attack 18 months ago.

But Charles, we know
where Barry Crane is.

Can you believe he only moved
50 miles from the church?

Charles, are you there?

- I am.

- Let's go find out

what happened to your grandson.

Go to this address
and wait for me.

Wait for me.

- Great, I'll be ready.

Professor Bando?

- This is Chief
Detective Murch calling back.

- Oh yeah, hey Chief.

- I understand you
know Professor Derring?

- Sure, I know
Professor Derring.

- We arrested him
for drugging Monty Lawrence.

- Really?

- Okay Derring, I need to
know what you were doing

at that kid's apartment.

You weren't the last
person he had contact with.

So did you or did you
not slip him that drug?

- I told you everything.

I brought him a book on
the space time continuum.

- Is that right?

- That's right.

- I'm trying to be nice here

so let me ask you one last time,

did you or did you not

slip Monte that drug while
you were in his apartment?

- No!

- You really must think
I'm pretty stupid.

You should know that when
I'm asking the question

that I've already
done my homework.

You see Derring,

we have a sworn affidavit

from your colleague
Professor Hanson

that says you indeed did slip
that drug into his drink.

So care to revise your story?

- You ready, Charles?

Look, I know you're
worked up over this.

You're gonna have
to play it cool

if this is gonna go right.

- He kidnapped my grandson.

- Drive this thing like a pro.

Now Charles, don't ask me why

but I had a strange feeling

you were gonna
show up here today.

I know you won't understand, but

I got no one.

I mean I wanted a
family too, a son,

a son that loves me

the way your son loves you,

the way your grandson loves you.

Charles, I swear, I
swear I never hurt him.

I never laid a hand on him.

I swear, Charles.

I'm so sorry.

- Grandaddy!

- Barry Crane,
you're under arrest

for the abduction of Shay Bando.

You have the right
to remain silent.

Anything you say

can and will be used against you

in the court of law.

- Shay.

Shay.

Shay.

- Shay.

My baby.

- I'll call you
right back, thanks.

Well look at you.

You look-

- Happier, vindicated?

- All that and a bag of chips.

- I just came by
to say thank you.

- You're welcome.

I'm glad I could be of help.

You remember what I told you?

- You got it.

All the best, Dr. Weber.

- You as well.

- Take care.

- Hello Charles.

It's so good to be home.

- Well, we are so
delighted to host.

Good morning.

- Everything's fine
but there's no music.

- Well look who
the cat dragged in.

I think our music
problem is over.

I'm so glad to see you all.

Honey, these are
some of my students.

In fact, these are the
ones that I told you about.

This is Tyler

and this is Dreann.

This is my wife.

- It's a pleasure to meet you.
- Nice to meet you too.

- And our grandson, Shay.

- Good to meet you.
- Glad to meet you.

Dreann, glad to meet you.

- Excuse me for one second.

- Sure.

- Hello?

- This is Tyler Samuels right?

Hey Tyler, my name
is Bill Gentry.

- Okay yeah, what
can I do for you?

- I'd love to meet you guys.

I think it'd be
great for us to meet.

- Okay I really appreciate that.

- And see if we
can do something together.

I happened to be in town
a couple of weeks ago

and I visited the Beans
and Vines Coffee Shop,

coffee and wine shop there

and you and your partner
there were singing

and I got to say, I hear

and...
