Coming, Mom.

00:00:07,540 --> 00:00:11,644
My name is Mitchell Taylor. And I've lived in Eerie, Indiana, all my life.

4
00:00:11,678 --> 00:00:15,348
Up to now, my biggest complaint was that everything was too normal.

5
00:00:15,382 --> 00:00:19,252
I always wished something would happen. Something weird even.

6
00:00:19,285 --> 00:00:21,087
If only I'd listened to that old saying,

7
00:00:21,121 --> 00:00:23,356
"Be careful what you wish for. It might come true."

8
00:00:25,392 --> 00:00:28,461
That's my family. Officially, the most normal average family

That's nice.

Mom's a software engineer.

She programmed the entire Eerie nuclear plant from right here at this table.

16
00:00:51,518 --> 00:00:54,320
Maybe that's why downtown Eerie has that funny glow at night.

My sister Carrie spends way too much time looking in the mirror.

19
00:01:08,902 --> 00:01:13,840
I've never peeked in her diary but something tells me nobody else makes an appearance.

20
00:01:13,873 --> 00:01:17,177
That's my dad. He's a science professor at EU.

21
00:01:17,210 --> 00:01:20,847
People figure science professors are kind of old fashioned and boring.

Those people have probably met my dad.

Has anyone noticed anything strange happening lately?

24
00:01:27,387 --> 00:01:31,591
The only thing strange I know about is a young man who hasn't cleaned his room in two weeks.

25
00:01:31,624 --> 00:01:34,627
Well. That's not strange.

26
00:01:34,661 --> 00:01:37,697
It's not good. But it's not strange.

Well, I meant, you know, odd.
