[Boyd] Previously on From...

[Ethan] Ever since you fell asleep

and your eyes got all white, you've been different.

All I remember is being more scared

than I've ever been in my entire life.

[screaming]

[Tillie] You really need to get some rest.

Boyd said it was okay to sleep again.

It's not that. It's--

I feel like something is watching me.

[breathing rapidly]

Help me.

You're-- you're Victor's father.

Miranda used to call it the bottle tree.

The original is in a park a few towns over.

You need to take me there right now.

[engine roaring, horn honking]

- Aah! - [crash]

- [siren wailing] - Where am I?

There's a tree in the middle of the road.

- [crows cawing] - Just take a detour!

- Go around it! - You have to listen to me.

It's not safe to stop out here once it gets dark.

There are things in this town that will hurt us.

- [screeching] - [yelping]

- Jim! - Tabitha.

Please help us!

- There's a toolkit on the bus. - I got it.

I can't find the fucking keys!

Are you looking for these?

We get to keep Randall, though.

- [buzzing] - [screeching]

- What the fuck? - [grunts]

- [woman] What was that? - [man] Nicky's been shot!

She's bleeding internally. Nicky, stay with me.

[pants]

You look much better.

You've been eating a little more?

[Fatima] Yeah.

Finally found something I could keep down.

[Boyd] Donna?

[sobbing] Why is this happening?

Why can't they stop?

[gasping, coughing]

Everyone out of the way.

Out of the way! Clear a path!

We're gonna need some fresh towels!

Okay. This needs moving.

[woman] Okay, okay. Out of the way. Out of the way.

All right. Get him down.

[people chattering]

[grunting]

[woman] Hurry!

- Please. Please! - [woman] What happened?

- Get him some water. - Jesus.

- Tell us what you need. - [Randall groaning]

Easy.

Here.

Um, um, uh, I need something to clean and stitch his face,

- and I need more towels! - Why would they do this?

- Boyd? - [Randall groaning louder]

Hey, hey, hey, hey. All right. Okay.

No, no. Stop! Okay. No, no, no. Hey. Oh. It's all right.

Stop. Take it easy. Take it easy. Take it easy.

No, no, no. You're gonna hurt yourself.

You're gonna hurt yourself. Take it easy.

You did this. You fucking left me out there, man.

You fucking left me out there!

You did this. You fucking left me!

[grunting]

Hey, what happened?

Where the hell did that come from?

- [Kenny] Okay. Easy. - It was a long night. Come on.

- Is everyone okay? - Yeah.

Kristi! Oh, my God!

- [Kristi] I'm okay. - Jesus.

Okay. It could have been a lot worse.

Here. Let's get you inside.

- Yep. - Ow, ow.

- Careful. - Here.

- I got her. - Okay.

[Kristi grunting]

Where's the food?

Dale and the others are bringing it to storage.

What the hell happened last night?

Boyd.

Tabitha's back.

What?

She was on the ambulance when it came into town.

How?

Those weird trees in the forest, she went through one.

She said it took her to a lighthouse.

There's a meeting in the diner this afternoon.

- Hey! - It's okay.

Just let him go.

Let's go. All right.

Okay.

[people chattering quietly]

I don't think that's quite your style.

I was told I could look through these.

Of course. What's ours is yours.

Thanks.

I, uh, I've sent some people out to look for Victor.

It's not a big town.

I-I-If I'd known I-- I was gonna see him, I...

[chuckling]

...I would have worn a better shirt.

[chuckles]

You know what?

There is a closet upstairs where we keep the good stuff.

How 'bout we get you fixed up?

I'd appreciate that.

Okay. Let's do that.

Come on.

- Up here. - [door creaks]

I thought you said Jasper was in the tunnels.

He is. We need supplies.

We can't go into the tunnels unless we have supplies.

What supplies?

We need to make sure we don't get lost.

[door closes]

What happened?

Last night was... It was a bad night.

I'll wait outside.

[footsteps approaching]

- Victor. - [door opens]

- Who died? - [door closes]

Um... Nicky.

Oh.

And Randall got pretty torn up.

He's at the clinic now.

I need some things from my room.

Um, look, Victor.

Here. Come. Come. with me.

Come on. Um...

[lowered voice] Something else happened last night.

What?

- Tabitha came back. - Really?

And she had someone with her.

Victor, your dad is here.

- That's not possible. He-- - He's upstairs.

- No. - Look, look.

I know this is a lot to take in.

- No. No. No. - Victor.

No. No. No.

- Victor! - No!

That was quick. Did you... Hey.

Victor! Where are you going?

Victor, will you please just tell me what happened?

I thought you said we were going to get Jasper.

Hey, stop!

You're not being fair.

You came into my house,

you made me sit in that fort, and now--

Donna said my dad is here.

What? How?

It doesn't matter. You should go home.

Uh, we'll get Jasper later.

So, what was it like?

Uh, it was, um--

You know, it was scary, waking up in the hospital,

not knowing if it was real or if I was still dreaming.

So, you really talked to Grandma?

I did.

I just-- I just don't understand.

How do you go from a lighthouse in the woods

to a hospital in Maine?

Honey, I don't-- I don't know.

I wish I could explain.

The important thing is that she's back,

- and we're all together. - [door opens]

- [Jade] Hey! - [door closes]

- I need to talk to you. - Hey. Back off, man.

No, no, no. No.

Jim, it's okay. It's okay.

Please.

Boyd said... [exhales deeply]

Boyd said you went through a tree?

They're called Farway trees.

There's a bunch of them in the forest,

but this one has bottles on it.

The lighthouse.

Was it the same lighthouse Miranda was looking for?

I mean, it has to be.

Can you get back there without the tree?

I don't know. I don't-- I don't know.

Okay. Then we need to go to the tree.

All right. So, hold on.

She just got back, and you want to do what?

I'm not saying go through it again, but I need to see it.

I've been there, okay?

It was the first place I looked when she didn't come back.

There is-- there is nothing to see.

Oh. You mean besides the magic tree.

Uh...

Okay. The bottles. What about the bottles?

Was there anything special about them?

I took a few of 'em down.

There were slips of paper inside with numbers written on them.

Oh, my God. And you don't think that's important?

I think this place does a pretty great job

on messing with our heads.

Wait. No. This is different.

It has to be.

Look. I get that this place is one giant mindfuck, but--

[clears throat] Pardon my French.

But she went home, okay?

That's not a trick. It's not a dream!

That's real, and there is a whole town full of people

who are gonna be banging down your door demanding answers

whether you have them or not. Take me to the tree.

Let's see if we can find some.

I told Boyd that I was gonna go to that town meeting.

Oh, fuck the town meeting! Sorry.

Uh, okay. Look.

Town meeting isn't gonna solve anything,

but going to the tree,

at least it's a start.

[grunting]

We had to leave some of the food back at the settlement.

We, uh, we'll probably need to send another team out

before the next snowfall.

Yeah. We'll figure it out.

Boyd, there is something out there,

something different.

We heard it both times now,

walking around outside the cabins at night.

Okay.

If walking around is all it's doing,

then, uh, we got bigger things to worry about.

[scoffs]

[sighs]

[Randall grunting]

What they did to Randall...

Why'd they leave him alive? Why not just kill him?

[Boyd] I think they want us to look at him.

When the sun's up,

they want us to remember what's coming at night.

Part of the thing that keeps people sane here

is we get to pretend during the daytime,

pretend that we're safe.

With Randall walking around,

then we don't get to pretend anymore.

I removed the bullet, stabilized her.

One minute, she was fine,

and then all of a sudden, she wasn't.

Jesus.

- [inhales sharply] - Sorry.

[groans] Yeah.

Okay.

God. It's a miracle there are no fractures.

- Mari. - Probably have ligament damage.

This should be elevated. I'm gonna get you another pillow.

Mari, just stop for a second, please.

Look, last night wasn't easy,

and it wasn't your fault, okay?

Yeah, well... tell that to Nicky.

I'm telling you.

Look. I know what it's like. I just... [sighs]

I don't-- I don't want you to--

What?

If you think I'm gonna start spiraling

and stealing morphine again--

- I didn't--I didn't say that. - Well, you didn't have to.

- [groans] - Hey. Come here.

Come here.

Hey, you are the patient right now.

Can you please just stop worrying about me

and let me worry about you?

Can we worry about each other?

[chuckles]

[Randall groaning in pain]

I gotta go.

- Wait. - Just get some rest, yeah?

- [door opens] - [sighs]

[sighs]

[Randall groaning in pain]

- No. Boyd-- - I just wanna help.

I understand that. Boyd, you being here

is just gonna make things worse.

[grunting]

I'm sorry.

No. You're right.

Look, people need you out there.

They're gonna need you at the meeting later--both of you.

There's only so much people can take,

and now, with Tabitha being back,

- the fact that she went home-- - [grunting]

- I gotta-- - Yeah.

[groaning]

Hey, Randall. It's okay.

Squeeze my hand. I'm going to take a look.

- All right. - Yeah.

[Marielle] Yeah. You're okay.

This is where he stays...

...most of the time.

Oh.

Uh, it--it's, uh... [chuckles]

It's a little different from his room at home. [chuckles]

[exhales deeply]

For the first few years,

every time I'd turn a corner,

there'd be this little spark of hope

that maybe, just maybe,

I'd see all of them there--

Miranda, Eloise, Victor.

[stammers] And they-- they'd smile and laugh.

We'd all cry together about what a terrible mistake it all was.

[chuckles] Then...

That was the hardest part...

that little bit of hope. [sighs]

That was the part I-I couldn't bear.

As the years went by,

it became easier to tell myself they were dead.

They were gone.

So, that's what I did.

All that time, my little boy was here, alone.

What kind of man gives up on his family?

No wonder he doesn't wanna talk to me.

Just give him a little time.

He'll come 'round.

[exhales deeply]

Sorry to interrupt,

but, uh, we're all heading to the meeting.

I'll be right there.

Meeting?

People have a lot of questions about what happened,

about Tabitha.

Sure.

It was kind of a big deal that she got out of here.

[indistinct conversations]

[Dale] Come on.

Come on!

Okay, everybody, just take a seat.

- Hey, come on in. - [Donna] Sit down here. Come on.

[door closes]

[Boyd] Everybody grab-- grab a seat.

All right, everybody. Okay. All right.

All right. Look.

I understand that everybody wants answers, right?

- [all chattering] - So do I, all right?

But the truth is,

there's no easy explanations to any of this, okay?

- There's nothing that-- - Where the hell is Tabitha?

[all] Yeah. Yeah.

She's coming, all right?

Just try to remember, she's been through a lot.

All due respect, Boyd, but we've all been through a lot.

- [woman] That's right. - [all murmuring]

- I understand that. - [Dale] Are--are you sure?

'Cause I feel like if you had any clue about anything,

she'd be the one talking instead of you.

[all] Yeah.

Look. Everybody calm the fuck down.

Hey, why were you in the ambulance?

Well, uh, we were in an accident.

I was taking Tabitha to a park near my--

Tabitha's here.

[chattering]

What do I say?

Just tell 'em the truth.

[chattering]

- Thanks for coming. - Yeah.

Yeah.

Did you really go through a tree?

Hey, let's let her talk.

It's okay. Um, uh, I did. Yes.

Um...

I-I imagine some of you already know this,

but, um, there are some trees in the forest

that aren't like the other trees.

Hey. Town meeting's already started.

Yeah. I just gotta grab something.

[door closes]

[knock on door]

Hello?

Why did you bring me here?

[Fatima] 'Cause I wanted you to see

that if you climb high enough,

even a nightmare can look like a dream.

Hello?

- [sighs] Hey, Elgin. - [grunts]

[gasps] Oh, my-- What the fuck?

I'm so sorry. I-- [stammers] I thought you--

- Oh, my God. - I'm sorry.

Are you okay?

No. Not really. I...

- I'm sorry. - Uh, no. Wait.

I could use some company,

if you're not, uh, you know, busy.

Sure.

Victor? What are you doing?

It's cold out here.

I never drew pictures of him.

What?

When I was alone here, I never...

I always drew pictures of things that I saw,

because I knew the pictures would remember,

but I never-- I never drew pictures

of what came before.

And now I told myself that was a dream and that--

that he was...

Victor...

None of that matters.

- He's here. - [murmurs]

Somehow, your father is here,

and he's waiting for you back in town.

No. No. He's waiting for a little boy

that drove away a long time ago.

What's he gonna think...

...when he sees... me? [sighs]

I don't know.

I know I'm supposed to tell you that it'll be okay,

and he'll love you no matter what.

But I don't know if that's true.

You're really bad at this.

Sorry.

I don't know you that well,

but you seem like a really good person,

and that's something to be proud of here.

I would give anything to feel like a good person again.

Maybe...

Maybe you're not the only one who's afraid.

Maybe he's afraid of not being the dad

that little boy remembers.

So, you see this woman in the kimono

even when you're awake?

Now, I do. Yeah.

Well, is she trying to hurt you?

I thought she was at first,

but when I saw her last night,

she asked me for my help.

With what?

I don't know.

If my grandma was here, she'd probably tell me

it was an angel or somethin'.

"Remember now, there's a reason why angels say 'Fear not'

when they saw someone.

Even Gabriel was terrifying."

[chuckles] Wow.

Look at you, Mr. Bible Study.

- [chuckles] - [scoffs]

You wanna know the fucked up part?

I would take the creepy kimono woman in a heartbeat

over the shit I hear in my head now.

[laughs]

Like what?

Mostly just screaming.

But I don't...

[sighs] I don't just hear it. It's like...

It's like I can feel it, too.
