I went looking for the mountain

Derry thought I knew something
about your brother.

4

I stayed in Mount Affinity after
my folks died."

111
00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,879
the messages to Derry and Aileen
came from Emma's phone.

112
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,599
That's who brought them to the hut.
That's who sent Mervin there, too.

he played and when he played
it, the whole world just...

Why did you put the gun
on the island, Mervin?

00:47:30,559 --> 00:47:32,279
What fucking island?

510
00:47:32,319 --> 00:47:35,160

meet up with Tanya?

I'm hanging up now.

00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:17,480
Look, Mervin, listen to me, OK?
Tanya isn't real. She doesn't exist.

'Come into us, Mervin.'

528
00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:29,040
Or tell us where you are,
we can protect you, OK?

No, you're talking shit, again.
