1
00:00:08,617 --> 00:00:10,053
Have you heard this crazy story?

2
00:00:10,097 --> 00:00:11,402
Up next.

3
00:00:11,446 --> 00:00:13,535
APR is under fire today...

4
00:00:13,578 --> 00:00:15,189
- APR is...
- APR...

5
00:00:15,232 --> 00:00:17,104
APR is under fire today

6
00:00:17,147 --> 00:00:20,063
for a recent interview
that went disturbingly south.

7
00:00:20,107 --> 00:00:21,891
Disturbingly south.

8
00:00:50,833 --> 00:00:51,921
Hey, Mark.

9
00:00:51,964 --> 00:00:53,966
Long time no see.

10
00:00:54,010 --> 00:00:55,490
Hi Allen.

11
00:00:55,533 --> 00:00:57,187
How's
newfound fame been for you?

12
00:00:57,231 --> 00:00:59,165
You know, I was just talking
to my producer, Kim, here

13
00:00:59,189 --> 00:01:01,017
about how your episode

14
00:01:01,061 --> 00:01:03,280
was our most downloaded to date.

15
00:01:03,324 --> 00:01:04,934
Oh, yeah... it...

16
00:01:06,066 --> 00:01:08,677
Things have been
strange, I guess.

17
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,809
Cool, man.
Hey, hold on a second.

18
00:01:10,853 --> 00:01:13,073
And we will start
this live stream shortly.

19
00:01:13,551 --> 00:01:14,900
Okay.

20
00:01:15,684 --> 00:01:18,426
Hey, does he seem off to you?

21
00:01:18,469 --> 00:01:20,341
- What do you mean?
- I don't know.

22
00:01:20,384 --> 00:01:22,275
He just seems weirder from the
last time we interviewed him.

23
00:01:22,299 --> 00:01:24,171
Show's called
U.S. Sane, Kim,

24
00:01:24,214 --> 00:01:25,409
everyone we interview
is a little off.

25
00:01:25,433 --> 00:01:26,564
Remember, that's the point.

26
00:01:40,535 --> 00:01:42,276
This is U.S. Sane.

27
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,626
Hello, all
you crazies out there.

28
00:01:44,669 --> 00:01:46,193
Allen here.

29
00:01:46,236 --> 00:01:49,109
This is a special
live edition of U.S. Sane.

30
00:01:49,631 --> 00:01:52,895
We're steering away
from our normal podcast format

31
00:01:52,938 --> 00:01:56,159
to bring you this
special live update episode.

32
00:01:56,203 --> 00:01:58,030
You all remember my friend, Mark

33
00:01:58,074 --> 00:02:01,121
from our Halloween episode
titled, "Follower."

34
00:02:01,686 --> 00:02:03,577
Please stop now if you
haven't checked it out yet,

35
00:02:03,601 --> 00:02:07,344
it's definitely
our spookiest episode to date.

36
00:02:07,388 --> 00:02:08,606
Yeah.

37
00:02:08,650 --> 00:02:10,434
So, Mark,

38
00:02:10,478 --> 00:02:12,828
you emailed us stating you
have an update to your story?

39
00:02:12,871 --> 00:02:14,873
I do, Allen.

40
00:02:14,917 --> 00:02:20,096
First, briefly remind
our listeners about your story.

41
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,143
Well.

42
00:02:23,186 --> 00:02:24,274
Allen, I...

43
00:02:28,104 --> 00:02:30,106
A few years ago,

44
00:02:30,150 --> 00:02:31,934
I started noticing this

45
00:02:31,977 --> 00:02:34,241
shadowy figure
that followed me around.

46
00:02:34,850 --> 00:02:37,635
Yeah, yeah, and I...
I think what we all found

47
00:02:37,679 --> 00:02:40,508
the creepiest about it,
about the whole thing,

48
00:02:40,551 --> 00:02:43,206
is that this so-called follower

49
00:02:43,250 --> 00:02:46,035
actually appeared
in some of your photos.

50
00:02:46,078 --> 00:02:49,038
I... You know,
I think I actually have one.

51
00:02:50,561 --> 00:02:52,389
I really want to, uh,

52
00:02:52,433 --> 00:02:56,132
I really want to thank you
for all of your help.

53
00:02:56,176 --> 00:02:59,266
Ever since you interviewed me...

54
00:02:59,309 --> 00:03:01,746
I've received countless
emails from people...

55
00:03:03,444 --> 00:03:04,967
just giving me
their theories and...

56
00:03:07,230 --> 00:03:10,233
just comforting me with kind
words of encouragement.

57
00:03:10,277 --> 00:03:13,149
That's great.
That's great to hear, Mark.

58
00:03:13,628 --> 00:03:17,240
So, you have an update for us?

59
00:03:17,284 --> 00:03:19,851
Yeah.
I do, Allen.

60
00:03:22,071 --> 00:03:23,681
A week ago, I...

61
00:03:24,943 --> 00:03:26,641
actually...

62
00:03:26,684 --> 00:03:28,469
finally found
this follower,

63
00:03:28,512 --> 00:03:31,298
and I... I currently have him
trapped in my basement.

64
00:03:32,951 --> 00:03:34,170
Excuse me, what?

65
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,043
Would you like to see him?

66
00:03:38,870 --> 00:03:41,264
Uh, hold on a second, Mark.
You did what?

67
00:03:41,308 --> 00:03:43,135
Here, here, just...
Let me show you.

68
00:03:59,282 --> 00:04:01,066
Mark? Hello?

69
00:04:01,110 --> 00:04:02,827
- Can anybody hear me?
- Uh, Mark? Mark, Mark!

70
00:04:02,851 --> 00:04:04,331
- Let's uh...
- Mark!

71
00:04:04,374 --> 00:04:05,767
Let's...

72
00:04:05,810 --> 00:04:06,898
I finally confronted him.

73
00:04:06,942 --> 00:04:08,596
Like they told me to.

74
00:04:08,639 --> 00:04:09,988
Who... Who told you?

75
00:04:10,032 --> 00:04:11,425
Our fans.

76
00:04:11,468 --> 00:04:13,296
Can anybody hear me?

77
00:04:13,340 --> 00:04:14,645
I need you
to listen to me, Mark.

78
00:04:15,298 --> 00:04:17,257
Everything's going to be okay.

79
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,216
Whoever you have

80
00:04:20,260 --> 00:04:22,131
is not...

81
00:04:23,219 --> 00:04:24,394
the follower.

82
00:04:24,438 --> 00:04:26,091
We can help you.

83
00:04:26,701 --> 00:04:28,442
I'm just done.

84
00:04:28,485 --> 00:04:30,835
Hello? Mark?

85
00:04:30,879 --> 00:04:32,533
Mark, why are you doing this?

86
00:04:32,576 --> 00:04:34,186
Mark, please let me out.

87
00:04:35,884 --> 00:04:37,712
I finally got what I wanted.

88
00:04:37,755 --> 00:04:39,191
Listen, Mark...

89
00:04:39,235 --> 00:04:40,835
I've already called
the police on myself.

90
00:04:42,586 --> 00:04:43,586
I... I know...

91
00:04:45,328 --> 00:04:46,416
I...

92
00:04:46,460 --> 00:04:47,635
I know that...

93
00:04:49,376 --> 00:04:50,986
I have to be
the one to stop this.

94
00:04:51,029 --> 00:04:52,422
Mark.

95
00:04:52,466 --> 00:04:53,902
Please stop.

96
00:04:55,033 --> 00:04:57,906
Don't...
Uh, don't do anything stupid!

97
00:04:57,949 --> 00:05:00,343
This story
needs the ending it deserves.

98
00:05:00,387 --> 00:05:02,040
- Mark!
- Police, open up!

99
00:05:02,084 --> 00:05:04,347
Stop this!

100
00:05:04,391 --> 00:05:06,044
- Come out, now!
- Mark?

101
00:05:07,568 --> 00:05:09,004
Come back.

102
00:05:09,047 --> 00:05:10,484
- Come back.
- Open up!

103
00:05:10,527 --> 00:05:11,876
Stop this.

104
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:13,008
Mark?

105
00:05:13,051 --> 00:05:14,705
Shit!

106
00:05:14,749 --> 00:05:16,620
He's got a gun!

107
00:05:16,664 --> 00:05:18,622
- Come back, come back.
- Put the gun down.

108
00:05:18,666 --> 00:05:20,386
- Mark, Mark, stop this.
- Put the gun down.

109
00:05:25,020 --> 00:05:28,110
Hello, everyone,
and welcome back

110
00:05:28,153 --> 00:05:31,200
to U.S. Sane,
on American Public Radio,

111
00:05:31,243 --> 00:05:32,767
the show where we interview...

112
00:05:33,898 --> 00:05:36,553
strange people
doing grand things.

113
00:05:37,337 --> 00:05:39,382
I'm your host, Allen Wolfe.

114
00:05:40,688 --> 00:05:42,559
Everyone who works with me

115
00:05:42,603 --> 00:05:44,605
knows I keep
a box in my office...

116
00:05:46,389 --> 00:05:48,304
full of letters
from potential guests

117
00:05:48,348 --> 00:05:50,393
asking if they can
be on the show.

118
00:05:52,613 --> 00:05:54,136
Usually,
I get about a hundred a week.

119
00:05:55,442 --> 00:05:56,965
I get a... I get an email,

120
00:05:57,008 --> 00:05:59,010
I print it out,
and I put it in the box.

121
00:06:03,101 --> 00:06:05,365
Mark's letter
sat in that box for...

122
00:06:06,540 --> 00:06:09,369
months before I decided
to interview him.

123
00:06:10,805 --> 00:06:13,198
I never should have interviewed
Mark the first time,

124
00:06:13,242 --> 00:06:14,548
let alone a second.

125
00:06:16,419 --> 00:06:18,465
I ignored my gut
telling me not to

126
00:06:18,508 --> 00:06:20,075
for the sake of entertainment.

127
00:06:21,859 --> 00:06:24,122
I failed you, listeners.

128
00:06:35,786 --> 00:06:37,179
How bad is this?

129
00:06:37,832 --> 00:06:39,790
I mean, how much should
I expect to get sued for?

130
00:06:40,269 --> 00:06:43,403
Did you even mean anything
that you said earlier

131
00:06:43,446 --> 00:06:45,492
about failing the listeners?

132
00:06:46,231 --> 00:06:48,799
Mr. Franklin
would like to see you.

133
00:06:50,845 --> 00:06:53,195
In an
effort to distance themselves

134
00:06:53,238 --> 00:06:56,459
fromU.S. Sane's
reckless interview style,

135
00:06:56,503 --> 00:07:01,116
APR has already
parted ways with Allen Wolfe.

136
00:07:01,159 --> 00:07:02,552
American Public Radio

137
00:07:02,596 --> 00:07:04,293
released
a statement saying, quote,

138
00:07:04,336 --> 00:07:06,948
"As we continue with our
internal investigation

139
00:07:06,991 --> 00:07:09,167
regarding Mr. Wolfe's
reckless actions,

140
00:07:09,211 --> 00:07:10,604
our thoughts and prayers

141
00:07:10,647 --> 00:07:12,388
go out to Mr. Bowers' family.

142
00:07:12,432 --> 00:07:14,869
Here at APR, no one's life
should ever be put

143
00:07:14,912 --> 00:07:16,914
in harm's way for an interview.

144
00:07:16,958 --> 00:07:18,481
Police are still investigating

145
00:07:18,525 --> 00:07:21,223
how exactly
this event transpired.

146
00:07:21,266 --> 00:07:23,007
Bowers could be seen

147
00:07:23,051 --> 00:07:25,053
on the livestream
talking about having someone

148
00:07:25,096 --> 00:07:27,142
locked in his basement.

149
00:07:27,185 --> 00:07:29,057
At first,
some thought this was a hoax.

150
00:07:29,100 --> 00:07:31,189
However, it quickly became clear

151
00:07:31,233 --> 00:07:33,714
that this was real.

152
00:07:36,238 --> 00:07:40,460
♪

153
00:07:56,563 --> 00:07:57,694
Is everything okay?

154
00:07:58,173 --> 00:08:00,784
Oh, yeah.
As good as things can be.

155
00:08:05,223 --> 00:08:07,356
Do you want to...
talk about it?

156
00:08:10,315 --> 00:08:11,969
Aw, it's okay.

157
00:08:12,013 --> 00:08:13,580
It's okay.

158
00:08:14,363 --> 00:08:16,583
Oh, Jesus.

159
00:08:17,105 --> 00:08:19,324
I guess that's one place
you can keep your awards.

160
00:08:19,368 --> 00:08:21,588
I may move them
to the shallow end.

161
00:08:23,241 --> 00:08:24,547
Who knows?

162
00:08:25,809 --> 00:08:28,551
- Thought you might want this.
- I don't, thanks.

163
00:08:30,161 --> 00:08:32,337
I don't want
anything to do with this.

164
00:08:34,122 --> 00:08:35,297
Okay.

165
00:08:36,254 --> 00:08:38,692
You're going to make it
to the end of this.

166
00:08:38,735 --> 00:08:40,302
It isn't going
to be a smooth ride,

167

but you will, and when you do,

168
00:08:43,392 --> 00:08:45,002
you're going to need
a redeeming story.

169
00:08:45,046 --> 00:08:47,701
And maybe,
just maybe, your redemption

170
00:08:47,744 --> 00:08:49,267
is in that box.

171
00:08:52,183 --> 00:08:54,055
Okay, we have a P.O. box.

172
00:08:54,098 --> 00:08:55,535
Ooh.

173
00:08:56,144 --> 00:08:59,451
Mine is from some lady,
named Josie.

174
00:08:59,495 --> 00:09:02,629
Claims her birdfeeder
is haunted by...

175
00:09:02,672 --> 00:09:04,065
Oh, my God.
Allen.

176
00:09:06,894 --> 00:09:08,025
Listen to this.

177
00:09:09,940 --> 00:09:11,463
"Dear Mr. Wolfe.

178
00:09:11,986 --> 00:09:13,770
My name is Don Thomas.

179
00:09:13,814 --> 00:09:15,555
Before my wife Jean died,

180
00:09:15,598 --> 00:09:17,687
she would listen
to your program every week.

181
00:09:18,558 --> 00:09:20,081
She was a huge fan.

182
00:09:21,648 --> 00:09:23,016
I, on the other hand,
find you annoying."

183
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,042
Great.
That's great, Kim, trash it.

184
00:09:25,086 --> 00:09:27,131
"With that said,

185
00:09:27,175 --> 00:09:29,394
I think I have something
living in the woods

186
00:09:29,438 --> 00:09:32,049
near my house that might
pique your interest.

187
00:09:32,093 --> 00:09:34,443
What I'm asking you
to help me with is dangerous.

188
00:09:34,486 --> 00:09:38,578
So I've attached a check
for $25,000...

189
00:09:38,621 --> 00:09:40,623
Holy shit.

190
00:09:40,667 --> 00:09:43,104
There it is. Okay.

191
00:09:44,671 --> 00:09:47,369
"In the woods
near my house lives a beast

192
00:09:47,412 --> 00:09:48,762
with a thousand eyes.

193
00:09:48,805 --> 00:09:50,720
If you meet me
at my P.O. Box,

194
00:09:50,764 --> 00:09:52,853
I will take you
to the beast and kill it.

195
00:09:52,896 --> 00:09:55,507
A hell of a story awaits
for you if you accept my offer.

196
00:09:55,551 --> 00:09:57,292
I'll sign the check
if you accept it.

197
00:09:57,335 --> 00:09:59,163
Are you in?

198
00:10:00,687 --> 00:10:02,253
Jean would have wanted this.

199
00:10:02,950 --> 00:10:04,560
P.S.

200
00:10:04,604 --> 00:10:06,190
I'll be at the post office
in Hobart, Oklahoma

201
00:10:06,214 --> 00:10:07,476
every Wednesday.

202
00:10:07,519 --> 00:10:09,260
If you show up,
I'll pick you up.

203
00:10:09,696 --> 00:10:12,568
I have no phone,
so it has to be this way.

204
00:10:13,656 --> 00:10:16,311
I can't promise you that
I won't have killed the beast

205
00:10:16,354 --> 00:10:17,791
by the time
you answer either."

206
00:10:18,574 --> 00:10:20,794
Signed, D.T.

207
00:10:29,716 --> 00:10:31,239
What do you think?

208
00:10:31,282 --> 00:10:33,894
First of all,
a monster sounds like

209
00:10:33,937 --> 00:10:35,896
fairy tale fantasy bullshit.

210
00:10:36,461 --> 00:10:37,917
You're not seeing
the real story here.

211
00:10:37,941 --> 00:10:39,377
Which is?

212
00:10:39,421 --> 00:10:40,901
That you would be interviewing

213
00:10:40,944 --> 00:10:42,859
a recently widowed man

214
00:10:42,903 --> 00:10:45,688
who's making his dead wife's
dying wish a reality,

215
00:10:45,732 --> 00:10:48,082
which is to hang out
with Allen Wolfe.

216
00:10:48,125 --> 00:10:50,650
Her favorite host.

217

The recently fired,
internationally acclaimed

218
00:10:54,871 --> 00:10:57,526
podcast host,
all while monster hunting!

219
00:10:58,309 --> 00:11:01,225
When you say it like that,
it sounds decently poetic.

220
00:11:01,791 --> 00:11:03,314
Listen, it's your call.

221
00:11:03,837 --> 00:11:05,708
You can also just
sit here and do nothing.

Perfect chance to have
a kick ass comeback story.

223
00:11:15,413 --> 00:11:18,373
APR'll be begging
to have you back.

Okay.

225

- Okay.
- Really?

Yeah, it's the perfect way
to get my mind off

227
00:11:33,170 --> 00:11:35,695

You're an entertainer,

All you care about
is telling stories

Had.

00:18:44,253 --> 00:18:45,385
Cool.

331
00:18:47,691 --> 00:18:48,823
I know it ain't much...

332
00:18:49,519 --> 00:18:50,738
but it'll do.

333
00:18:51,956 --> 00:18:53,262
Let me know
when you get settled.

334
00:18:53,306 --> 00:18:54,437
I'll show you around.

335
00:19:03,533 --> 00:19:04,752
You hungry?

336
00:19:05,274 --> 00:19:06,362
I'm good.

337
00:19:10,845 --> 00:19:13,005
Thought you said in your letter
you don't have a phone.

338
00:19:14,544 --> 00:19:15,676
I don't.

339
00:19:16,329 --> 00:19:18,461
That one's hooked
directly to the shed.

340
00:19:19,854 --> 00:19:21,464
Jean used to use it
to let me know

341
00:19:21,508 --> 00:19:22,987
when supper was ready.

342
00:19:29,298 --> 00:19:31,378
I'm just going to point out
the elephant in the room.

343
00:19:34,434 --> 00:19:35,957
Why is this house empty?

344
00:19:37,088 --> 00:19:40,309
I decided to downsize
after Jean died.

345
00:19:41,919 --> 00:19:43,791
I don't like clutter.

346
00:19:44,531 --> 00:19:46,185
I mean, there has
to be a limit to...

347
00:19:46,228 --> 00:19:49,623
- You like the Twilight Zone?
- Like the show?

348
00:19:49,666 --> 00:19:52,756
My uncle was a set decorator
on the Twilight Zone.

349
00:19:53,322 --> 00:19:56,020
He gave me this
when I was much younger.

350
00:19:56,586 --> 00:19:59,198
It was prop in a famous episode.

351
00:19:59,241 --> 00:20:00,721
What episode?

352
00:20:01,548 --> 00:20:02,636
Does that matter?

353
00:20:03,767 --> 00:20:05,682
I just thought
it was interesting.

354
00:20:07,467 --> 00:20:08,946
Cool.

355
00:20:08,990 --> 00:20:10,992
Let's get going, shall we?

356
00:20:13,386 --> 00:20:16,258
Ah, don't touch that switch.

357
00:20:16,302 --> 00:20:17,433
You got it?

358
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,131
Okay.

359
00:20:27,138 --> 00:20:29,097
Two things
we need to get straight.

360
00:20:29,140 --> 00:20:31,230
First, no cell phones.

361
00:20:31,839 --> 00:20:33,275
Why?

362
00:20:33,319 --> 00:20:35,239
I don't want you knowing
my location, that's why.

363
00:20:35,625 --> 00:20:37,148
I don't get service out here.

364
00:20:38,628 --> 00:20:39,910
This is stupid,
I couldn't get maps out...

365
00:20:39,934 --> 00:20:41,174
- The quicker that you...
- Fine.

366
00:20:42,284 --> 00:20:43,870
I'll give it
back to you before you leave.

367
00:20:43,894 --> 00:20:45,548
I assume
you planned on giving it back.

368
00:20:45,592 --> 00:20:47,158
The second thing
you need to know

369
00:20:47,202 --> 00:20:49,726
is that this entire place...

370
00:20:50,945 --> 00:20:52,338
is boobytrapped.

371
00:20:52,816 --> 00:20:54,644
So, now you got the basics.

372
00:20:55,123 --> 00:20:56,777
Hold on, boobytrapped?

373
00:20:59,345 --> 00:21:00,694
Like, homemade bombs and shit?

374
00:21:01,477 --> 00:21:02,957
Some of 'em, yes.

375
00:21:05,089 --> 00:21:06,177
Are you telling me this...

376
00:21:06,743 --> 00:21:08,441
This place contains

377
00:21:08,484 --> 00:21:11,835
random things that could
kill me?

378
00:21:12,358 --> 00:21:14,518
How is that the second most
important thing to tell me?

379
00:21:15,317 --> 00:21:17,101
Just don't flip
that switch inside,

380
00:21:17,145 --> 00:21:18,364
and you'll be fine.

381
00:21:18,407 --> 00:21:20,627
Keep in mind that if it is red,

382
00:21:20,670 --> 00:21:22,193
you could be dead.

383
00:21:22,716 --> 00:21:24,631
Just stay with me.

384
00:21:24,674 --> 00:21:26,981
You'll be fine.
Oh, and here.

385
00:21:27,416 --> 00:21:29,418
If the shit hits the fan,

386
00:21:29,462 --> 00:21:30,854
I wrote up a set of guidelines

387
00:21:30,898 --> 00:21:31,986
for you to follow.

388
00:21:32,769 --> 00:21:34,075
- Follow?
- Yeah.

389
00:21:34,118 --> 00:21:37,296
So, you don't get
blown up and shit.

390
00:21:37,992 --> 00:21:39,950
D... don't worry about it.

391
00:21:39,994 --> 00:21:41,434
I'll show you
where most of them are.

392
00:21:43,084 --> 00:21:44,520
The ones I remember anyway.

393
00:21:44,564 --> 00:21:46,522
There are ones you forgot about?

394
00:21:46,566 --> 00:21:50,265
Ugh, damn stray cats
keep knocking my shit over.

395
00:22:12,287 --> 00:22:15,116
This is where I build
all my traps.

396
00:22:15,159 --> 00:22:17,074
Can you elaborate on the traps?

397
00:22:17,118 --> 00:22:18,946
Elaborate how?

398
00:22:19,860 --> 00:22:22,428
I don't know.
Why are there traps?

399
00:22:22,471 --> 00:22:25,735
There's a giant beast
that lives in the woods.

400
00:22:26,214 --> 00:22:28,521
My plan is
to lure it to my house,

401
00:22:28,564 --> 00:22:30,305
trap it and kill it.

402
00:22:37,443 --> 00:22:38,835
Is this a trap?

403
00:22:39,749 --> 00:22:42,056
No.
Why would you think that?

404
00:22:42,099 --> 00:22:43,250
I don't know,
I mean... It looks...

405
00:22:43,274 --> 00:22:44,363
What is wrong with you?

406
00:23:11,477 --> 00:23:12,956
You know,

407
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:14,828
for a guy
who doesn't like clutter,

408
00:23:14,871 --> 00:23:16,438
this place says differently.

409
00:23:16,482 --> 00:23:18,875
One thing you'll find out
about me, Allen,

410
00:23:18,919 --> 00:23:22,139
everything I have around me
at any particular moment

411
00:23:22,183 --> 00:23:25,491
is there
for a very specific purpose.

412
00:23:29,843 --> 00:23:31,453
So, Don,

413
00:23:31,497 --> 00:23:33,020
you promised in your letter

414
00:23:33,063 --> 00:23:34,674
I was going to see

415
00:23:34,717 --> 00:23:36,415
the monster you were hunting.

416
00:23:36,980 --> 00:23:39,026
Well, yeah...

417
00:23:40,984 --> 00:23:42,464
I ain't no artist.

418
00:23:44,118 --> 00:23:45,554
But I sketched this...

419
00:23:46,512 --> 00:23:48,644
the last time I saw

420
00:23:48,688 --> 00:23:50,037
Eye.

421
00:23:51,821 --> 00:23:54,128
- Eye?
- That's what I call her.

422
00:24:01,788 --> 00:24:03,790
I remember
the first time I saw her.

423
00:24:04,660 --> 00:24:05,792
She was...

424
00:24:06,793 --> 00:24:08,272
beautiful...

425
00:24:10,057 --> 00:24:11,232
in some way I...

426
00:24:12,102 --> 00:24:13,930
can't really describe.

427
00:24:21,764 --> 00:24:24,027
I can't wait to kill her.

428
00:24:35,604 --> 00:24:37,214
Man,

429
00:24:37,258 --> 00:24:39,058
I think it's funny
you wrote your letter to me

430
00:24:39,086 --> 00:24:40,261
on a greeting card.

431
00:24:41,131 --> 00:24:42,393
Why is that funny?

432
00:24:45,484 --> 00:24:47,311
You're an interesting guy,
Don, but...

433
00:24:49,009 --> 00:24:50,726
I don't take you
for the greeting card type.

434
00:24:50,750 --> 00:24:51,838
They were Jean's.

435
00:24:53,143 --> 00:24:54,841
She had
a bunch of 'em left over.

436
00:24:55,494 --> 00:24:57,278
She was
the kind of person that cared

437
00:24:57,321 --> 00:24:58,845
when nobody else did.

438
00:25:00,194 --> 00:25:01,891
I'm just trying
to get rid of them.

439
00:25:10,378 --> 00:25:11,466
Huh.

440
00:25:13,468 --> 00:25:15,731
Everybody needs a plan B.

441
00:25:16,427 --> 00:25:18,821
That thing doesn't look like
it's been fired in years.

442
00:25:18,865 --> 00:25:19,909
Trust me.

443
00:25:20,475 --> 00:25:21,607
She's old,

444
00:25:21,650 --> 00:25:23,217
but she'll still
get the job done.

445
00:25:24,740 --> 00:25:27,351
Oh, hey, before I forget.

446
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:36,491
What is it?

447
00:25:37,144 --> 00:25:39,755
No, no.
What is it?

448
00:25:40,495 --> 00:25:41,801
It's bait.

449
00:25:44,064 --> 00:25:45,805
It's got a bell
on the other end.

450
00:25:47,458 --> 00:25:49,548
There's two kinds of people
in this world, Allen.

451
00:25:50,113 --> 00:25:52,986
Those that wait
and those that can't anymore.

452
00:25:54,727 --> 00:25:56,729
This beast took my cattle,

453
00:25:56,772 --> 00:25:59,601
I am done
waiting on this fucker.

454
00:26:02,212 --> 00:26:04,214
Monster took my livestock,

455
00:26:04,258 --> 00:26:05,999
cancer took my wife.

456
00:26:08,828 --> 00:26:10,351
You do the math,

457
00:26:10,394 --> 00:26:12,135
I've got nothing left to lose.

458
00:26:13,833 --> 00:26:15,269
What is that?

459
00:26:16,966 --> 00:26:19,273
It is time to do
some monster huntin'.

460
00:26:20,535 --> 00:26:21,580
Monster hunting?

461
00:26:22,189 --> 00:26:23,277
What does that entail?

462
00:26:42,644 --> 00:26:44,733
This thing starts beeping,

463
00:26:44,777 --> 00:26:46,082
you just follow me?

464
00:26:47,606 --> 00:26:49,172
Follow you?

465
00:26:49,216 --> 00:26:51,056
What would you be doing
if that starts beeping?

466
00:26:51,653 --> 00:26:53,612
Running like hell
back to the house.

467
00:27:03,099 --> 00:27:04,884
So I saw you had a horse.

468
00:27:04,927 --> 00:27:06,015
Do you ride?

469
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,328
My family had horses
in Agoura Hills growing up.

470
00:27:15,372 --> 00:27:16,504
Horse ain't mine.

471
00:27:17,853 --> 00:27:20,464
It just showed up one day
and wouldn't leave.

472
00:27:21,248 --> 00:27:23,293
I decided
to build a fence around it

473
00:27:23,337 --> 00:27:24,947
so it wouldn't get hit
by a car or truck.

474
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,602
I don't give
two shits about that horse.

475
00:27:28,081 --> 00:27:29,169
Gotcha.

476
00:27:40,571 --> 00:27:42,051
So what's the plan here, Don?

477
00:27:42,095 --> 00:27:43,115
- 'Cause right now...
- You know what, Allen?

478
00:27:43,139 --> 00:27:44,663
You talk too much.

479
00:27:45,272 --> 00:27:46,882
Let's try not for a while.

480
00:27:47,622 --> 00:27:50,669
You do realize I'm interviewing
you for a podcast, right?

481
00:27:50,712 --> 00:27:53,323
I don't care how you choose
to tell the story.

482
00:28:18,914 --> 00:28:20,046
No luck today.

483
00:28:21,569 --> 00:28:23,223
I'm going to bed.

484
00:28:23,266 --> 00:28:24,354
What?

485
00:28:46,159 --> 00:28:47,551
I'm here now...

486
00:28:48,770 --> 00:28:49,858
on the farm.

487
00:28:51,164 --> 00:28:52,252
Alone.

488
00:28:55,037 --> 00:28:56,125
Don...

489
00:28:58,562 --> 00:29:00,086
Don called it a day and...

490
00:29:01,174 --> 00:29:02,305
he's asleep now.

491
00:29:05,700 --> 00:29:06,832
He's very...

492
00:29:08,659 --> 00:29:10,139
There's something
about him, I can't...

493
00:29:13,882 --> 00:29:15,405
I can't tell if he's lying...

494
00:29:16,711 --> 00:29:18,800

495
00:29:18,844 --> 00:29:20,541

It's so weird.

497
00:29:24,110 --> 00:29:25,198
It's creepy in here.

498
00:29:25,807 --> 00:29:28,027
All the walls are empty.

499
00:29:30,290 --> 00:29:32,031
He claims it's boobytrapped.

anything more to do here.

I also know

Is that a threat
I'm hearing in your tone?

663
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,098
I don't know if you noticed,
but I'm not carrying a gun.

664
00:42:16,751 --> 00:42:19,058
Now, shouldn't you
be more worried?

665
00:42:19,101 --> 00:42:20,668
I don't know,

666
00:42:20,712 --> 00:42:23,105
maybe the thing
that I'm threatening you with

667
00:42:23,149 --> 00:42:25,499
was meant to stop something
much bigger than you?

668
00:42:31,070 --> 00:42:32,462
Showtime front!

669
00:42:33,507 --> 00:42:34,595
Showtime front!

670
00:42:35,117 --> 00:42:36,205
Show... God!

671
00:42:36,249 --> 00:42:38,033
Shit!
Shit!

672
00:42:38,077 --> 00:42:39,731
Showtime front!

673
00:42:41,428 --> 00:42:42,734
Hey!

674
00:43:04,364 --> 00:43:05,495
I think...

675
00:43:07,585 --> 00:43:10,849
I think it just might be
best if I go home now.

676
00:45:13,449 --> 00:45:15,408
I've met some unique

677
00:45:15,451 --> 00:45:18,716
and odd people doing this show.

678
00:45:20,892 --> 00:45:22,458
But Don takes the cake.

679
00:45:24,722 --> 00:45:26,201
He really is the craziest person

680
00:45:26,245 --> 00:45:27,463
I've ever met.

681
00:45:39,954 --> 00:45:41,802
There's no way any of you
are going to believe me

682
00:45:41,826 --> 00:45:43,392
when I tell you
what I saw today.

683
00:45:45,786 --> 00:45:47,786
It's like something
out of a science fiction movie.

684
00:45:50,182 --> 00:45:51,792
There were these masked people,

685
00:45:53,185 --> 00:45:55,230
almost like they work
in Area 51 or something,

686
00:45:58,277 --> 00:45:59,408
and they were...

687
00:46:01,671 --> 00:46:03,231
well, I don't know
what they were doing.

688
00:46:05,414 --> 00:46:08,243
The truth is, I don't know
what I'm doing here.

689
00:46:14,032 --> 00:46:15,642
I can't
tell what's a bigger mystery.

690
00:46:19,167 --> 00:46:20,778
If the monster
is actually real...

691
00:46:26,131 --> 00:46:27,306
or if Don...

692
00:46:28,786 --> 00:46:29,830
is...

693
00:46:39,448 --> 00:46:40,798
I just can't read Don.

694
00:46:45,541 --> 00:46:48,022
I keep trying to find
meaning within Don's story,

695
00:46:48,588 --> 00:46:49,807
but I just... I can't.

696
00:46:52,418 --> 00:46:53,680
Maybe there's no meaning.

697
00:47:00,948 --> 00:47:02,080
Maybe this whole thing...

698
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:05,648
is crazy...

699
00:47:06,736 --> 00:47:07,825
random.

700
00:47:10,958 --> 00:47:12,046
And nothing else.

701
00:47:19,749 --> 00:47:20,838
As far as...

702
00:47:22,796 --> 00:47:24,232
do I think the monster is real?

703
00:47:29,063 --> 00:47:30,586
The answer is no.

704
00:47:35,853 --> 00:47:36,984
I think in stories...

705
00:47:38,943 --> 00:47:40,509
there's always more
than meets the eye.

706
00:47:47,038 --> 00:47:48,126
In this case...

707
00:47:52,173 --> 00:47:53,453
there's nothing more
to see here.

708
00:48:19,548 --> 00:48:20,636
You good, Don?

709
00:48:25,467 --> 00:48:27,600
I'm good.

710
00:48:27,643 --> 00:48:29,036
Wonderful.

711
00:48:30,603 --> 00:48:31,909
Never been better.

712
00:48:46,575 --> 00:48:47,837
Don?

713
00:48:47,881 --> 00:48:49,317
Let it be, Al.

714
00:48:50,057 --> 00:48:51,232
Just let it be.

715
00:48:51,841 --> 00:48:53,408
Everything was for nothing.

716
00:48:53,452 --> 00:48:54,757
Did great.

717
00:48:54,801 --> 00:48:55,889
Do you want to talk?

718
00:49:00,850 --> 00:49:02,635
Don, do you want to talk?

719
00:49:02,678 --> 00:49:06,900
What I would like
is for you to shut the fuck up.

720
00:49:25,963 --> 00:49:28,791
I... struggle...

721
00:49:29,531 --> 00:49:31,446
with staying in the moment.

722
00:49:34,754 --> 00:49:36,190
Jean would remind me.

723
00:49:36,669 --> 00:49:38,497
She'd say, "Come back."

724
00:49:39,411 --> 00:49:40,934
When she saw me daydreaming.

725
00:49:43,284 --> 00:49:45,895
She'd keep me grounded
when I'd wander.

726
00:49:49,290 --> 00:49:51,945
When she died, everything that...

727
00:49:52,990 --> 00:49:56,906
That... that kept me
grounded was gone.

728
00:49:56,950 --> 00:49:58,908
It didn't matter
what things I had anymore.

729
00:49:58,952 --> 00:49:59,997
I couldn't...

730
00:50:00,910 --> 00:50:03,391
Oh, God.
There I go again, I...

731
00:50:03,435 --> 00:50:05,350
I lost track
of where I was going.

732
00:50:07,004 --> 00:50:08,179
I can tell you this, though.

733
00:50:09,223 --> 00:50:11,051
The things that hurt the worst

734
00:50:11,095 --> 00:50:12,792
are the ones
that you don't see coming.

735
00:50:15,795 --> 00:50:17,710
- I would like to add...
- No, I know... I know...

736
00:50:17,753 --> 00:50:20,060
I know what I was going to say.

737
00:50:20,104 --> 00:50:21,279
The boxes.

738
00:50:22,193 --> 00:50:24,238
When Jean got sick,

739
00:50:24,282 --> 00:50:26,588
she decided
to leave me these things

740
00:50:26,632 --> 00:50:29,374
for me to find,
long after she left.

741
00:50:32,246 --> 00:50:33,900
And I put 'em in these boxes.

742
00:50:37,860 --> 00:50:38,948
And they'd...

743
00:50:39,906 --> 00:50:42,169
bring me back to reality
when I'd wander,

744
00:50:42,213 --> 00:50:43,344
which I often do.

745
00:50:47,479 --> 00:50:48,697
Jean told me, she'd...

746
00:50:50,743 --> 00:50:53,311
She left me 52 things.

747
00:50:54,747 --> 00:50:56,749
One for each year
we were together.

748
00:50:58,881 --> 00:51:01,841
I still haven't found number 52.

749
00:51:03,886 --> 00:51:05,975
I see these boxes
scattered around,

750
00:51:07,934 --> 00:51:09,283
and it's... it's kind of like

751
00:51:09,327 --> 00:51:10,763
Jean is watching me.

752
00:51:13,635 --> 00:51:15,028
Does that make me weird?

753
00:51:19,424 --> 00:51:21,121
You're weird,
but that's not the reason.

754
00:51:24,690 --> 00:51:26,344
In fact, that's probably

755
00:51:26,387 --> 00:51:28,347
the most normal thing
you've said since I met you.

756
00:51:28,911 --> 00:51:30,130
Well,

757
00:51:31,305 --> 00:51:32,915
Where do you think number 52 is?

758
00:51:35,657 --> 00:51:39,966
Honestly, Allen,
I don't think there is a 52.

759
00:51:42,186 --> 00:51:43,752
Jean's sense of humor.

760
00:51:51,195 --> 00:51:52,239
Are you good now, Don?

761
00:51:54,502 --> 00:51:55,677
Yeah, I'm good.

762
00:51:59,333 --> 00:52:01,466
Tomorrow I'll take you
back to your car.

763
00:52:03,250 --> 00:52:04,338
Sounds good.

764
00:52:18,700 --> 00:52:20,093
I never did tell
you why I wanted

765
00:52:20,137 --> 00:52:22,313
to kill Eye so bad, did I?

766
00:52:23,749 --> 00:52:26,360
You said it was
because she ate your cattle.

767
00:52:26,404 --> 00:52:27,796
No.

768
00:52:28,667 --> 00:52:30,190
I was going to get
rid of the cattle

769
00:52:30,234 --> 00:52:31,626
and move away from here anyway.

770
00:52:34,238 --> 00:52:36,501
Then why did you want to become
a monster hunter so bad?

771
00:52:37,545 --> 00:52:38,633
Monster hunter...

772
00:52:40,374 --> 00:52:42,855
never thought of myself
that way, but I'll take it.

773
00:52:44,335 --> 00:52:47,773
No, the reason that I wanted
to kill Eye so bad...

774
00:52:50,906 --> 00:52:51,994
Shit.

775
00:52:53,300 --> 00:52:54,540
Has that been on the whole time?

776
00:53:20,284 --> 00:53:21,459
Don.

777
00:53:23,896 --> 00:53:25,767
Don, are you okay?

778
00:54:17,341 --> 00:54:19,647
Okay, okay.

779
00:54:27,786 --> 00:54:30,005
911. What's your emergency?

780
00:54:30,049 --> 00:54:31,964
Yes, yes. Yes, I...

781
00:54:34,009 --> 00:54:35,141
Excuse me, sir?

782
00:54:42,975 --> 00:54:44,281
Did I just hear gunfire?

783
00:54:46,935 --> 00:54:48,546
Sir, are you okay?

784
00:54:56,031 --> 00:54:57,381
What is your current location?

785
00:55:15,399 --> 00:55:18,532
Hello?

786
00:55:27,541 --> 00:55:29,064
Sir,
what is your current location?

787
00:55:42,774 --> 00:55:43,992
Sir, are you okay?

788
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,957
Don! Don!

789
00:56:04,186 --> 00:56:06,101
Sir, can you hear me?

790
00:56:13,195 --> 00:56:14,588
Do you need help?

791
00:56:14,632 --> 00:56:15,652
What is your current location?

792
00:56:15,676 --> 00:56:16,764
Shit!

793
00:57:22,003 --> 00:57:25,137
Okay, uh...

794
00:57:25,180 --> 00:57:26,617
What do I say?

795
00:57:26,660 --> 00:57:28,009
I'm currently trapped

796
00:57:28,749 --> 00:57:32,361
in a house
that is a... booby...

797
00:57:36,540 --> 00:57:38,498
Yeah.

798
00:57:42,894 --> 00:57:47,072
I think Don broke something
when he got mad.

799
00:57:48,465 --> 00:57:50,815
Now the house has gone rogue.

800
00:57:50,858 --> 00:57:52,773
If the shit hits the fan,

801
00:57:52,817 --> 00:57:54,737
I wrote up a set of
guidelines for you to follow.

802
00:57:55,123 --> 00:57:56,211
Wait, the envelope.

803
00:57:56,821 --> 00:57:58,387
Don... Don left me a note,

804
00:57:58,431 --> 00:57:59,998
for when things go south.

805
00:58:00,041 --> 00:58:02,783
So you don't get
blown up and shit.

806
00:58:02,827 --> 00:58:08,267
The note says, number one,
"Avoid every fridge."

807
00:58:08,310 --> 00:58:10,138
The word "every" is underlined.

808
00:58:10,182 --> 00:58:12,924
Number two,
"Avoid all gray tiles."

809
00:58:12,967 --> 00:58:15,753
Number three, I quote,
"Truck will shoot at you

810
00:58:15,796 --> 00:58:18,103
if you get too close
and the red light is on."

811
00:58:18,799 --> 00:58:20,409
Number four,
"Some doors are fake."

812
00:58:21,367 --> 00:58:24,326
Number five, "Do not let
Bladey get too close to you."

813
00:58:24,370 --> 00:58:25,893
- "Not" underlined.
- " Six,

814
00:58:25,937 --> 00:58:28,330
find the encore button
in the garage.

815
00:58:28,374 --> 00:58:32,030
Bait and other shit
rigged to explode. Don."

816
00:58:41,561 --> 00:58:42,997
Okay. Okay.

817
00:58:43,737 --> 00:58:45,478
Okay, I'm going to cut
the bullshit.

818
00:58:49,177 --> 00:58:50,657
I have no way
of getting out of here

819
00:58:50,701 --> 00:58:52,267
because I have
no idea where I am.

820
00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:57,142
So, where does that leave me?

821
00:59:01,146 --> 00:59:02,887
I might not make it out of here.

822
00:59:08,414 --> 00:59:10,547
So let me leave you
with some final thoughts.

823
00:59:12,549 --> 00:59:13,593
Right now...

824
00:59:15,552 --> 00:59:16,596
I'm terrified.

825
00:59:20,426 --> 00:59:22,123
My actions have led me here.

826
00:59:26,258 --> 00:59:27,346
And for what?

827
00:59:30,784 --> 00:59:32,394
Hello?

828
00:59:32,438 --> 00:59:33,787
Is anyone there?

829
00:59:35,354 --> 00:59:36,573
Hello?

830
00:59:52,850 --> 00:59:55,417
If someone's there,
please pick up.

831
01:00:09,301 --> 01:00:10,389
Anyone?

832
01:00:22,009 --> 01:00:24,185
I need to know
if anyone can hear me.

833
01:00:24,229 --> 01:00:25,839
- Hello? Yes, I'm here.
- Hello?

834
01:00:25,883 --> 01:00:27,841
Good. Thank you,
thank you, thank you.

835
01:00:27,885 --> 01:00:29,016
I need your help, I'm hurt...

836
01:00:29,060 --> 01:00:30,148
I'm hurt really bad.

837
01:00:31,671 --> 01:00:32,735
I actually need your help, too.

838
01:00:32,759 --> 01:00:34,326
I'm stuck in a house that...

839
01:00:34,369 --> 01:00:36,197
No, listen.
You don't understand.

840
01:00:36,241 --> 01:00:38,809
I... I... I'm currently
stuck in this truck.

841
01:00:39,984 --> 01:00:41,246
And it's just me right now.

842
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:43,683
Everyone I'm with got eaten.

843
01:00:43,727 --> 01:00:44,771
Eaten?

844
01:00:46,686 --> 01:00:49,297
It somehow got loose
and we couldn't contain it.

845
01:00:49,341 --> 01:00:51,691
The latch on the trailer
must have been insecure.

846
01:00:51,735 --> 01:00:54,868
Are you one of them,
those people from earlier?

847
01:00:57,001 --> 01:00:59,046
I don't want to die.

848
01:01:00,047 --> 01:01:01,527
What is it?

849
01:01:01,570 --> 01:01:03,137
It can't be stopped.

850
01:01:03,181 --> 01:01:04,965
No. No, no!

851
01:01:05,879 --> 01:01:07,272
Hello?

852
01:01:07,315 --> 01:01:09,013
No. No!

853
01:01:09,056 --> 01:01:10,710
Hello?

854
01:01:42,742 --> 01:01:43,787
Okay.

855
01:01:47,225 --> 01:01:48,661
I made it out of the house.

856
01:01:51,533 --> 01:01:54,623
But, I don't think...

857
01:01:55,886 --> 01:01:57,931
I'm out of harm's way yet.

858
01:02:04,024 --> 01:02:05,243
If I can just...

859
01:02:06,635 --> 01:02:10,117
get to that truck...

860
01:02:12,206 --> 01:02:13,773
without that light turning on...

861
01:02:18,604 --> 01:02:19,692
I should be okay.

862
01:02:21,912 --> 01:02:24,088
Otherwise, I'll be dead.

863
01:02:48,939 --> 01:02:50,027
Okay. Okay.

864
01:02:52,290 --> 01:02:55,380
New plan.

865
01:02:55,423 --> 01:02:57,164
Don's envelope...

866
01:02:58,818 --> 01:03:02,300
said something
about an encore button...

867
01:03:03,214 --> 01:03:05,390
to find in the shed.

868
01:03:06,304 --> 01:03:07,392
If I can just...

869
01:03:10,874 --> 01:03:13,267
Oh, shit! Shit!

870
01:03:13,311 --> 01:03:14,878
Oh, shit. Shit!

871
01:03:15,487 --> 01:03:16,836
Shit, shit!

872
01:05:46,594 --> 01:05:47,682
Okay, Don.

873
01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:51,643
It's showtime, damn it!

874
01:05:58,780 --> 01:06:00,739
Huh?

875
01:06:00,782 --> 01:06:04,569
Game over,
you crazy-eyed son of a bitch!

876
01:06:47,655 --> 01:06:50,702
Oh, God.

877
01:07:47,802 --> 01:07:49,282
Well, folks.

878
01:07:49,891 --> 01:07:51,937
I don't think
there's a way out of here.

879
01:08:02,469 --> 01:08:04,384
Why am I here?

880
01:08:04,863 --> 01:08:06,169
You may be asking yourself.

881
01:08:08,345 --> 01:08:09,998
"How lame is this?"

882
01:08:10,042 --> 01:08:13,393
This was supposed to be
a story about...

883
01:08:14,351 --> 01:08:18,311
About a man hunting a monster.

884
01:08:19,747 --> 01:08:21,053
Instead,

885
01:08:21,097 --> 01:08:22,794
I'm going to die

886
01:08:22,837 --> 01:08:25,927
in the escape room from hell.

887
01:08:38,810 --> 01:08:40,290
What's the point?

888
01:09:03,051 --> 01:09:05,271
No, no. Please.

889
01:09:05,315 --> 01:09:06,490
Please.

890
01:09:08,709 --> 01:09:09,971
No!

891
01:09:47,487 --> 01:09:50,098
Keep moving forward, Don.

892
01:09:50,142 --> 01:09:52,753
Life is crazy.

893
01:09:52,797 --> 01:09:54,973
But so am I, for you.

894
01:09:56,148 --> 01:09:57,758
Stay crazy for me.

895
01:09:59,151 --> 01:10:01,371
Love always, Jean.

896
01:11:17,316 --> 01:11:20,276
Six, find the
encore button in the garage.

897
01:11:21,886 --> 01:11:24,758
Bait and the other shit,
rigged to explode.

898
01:11:36,727 --> 01:11:37,815
Shit.

899
01:11:41,819 --> 01:11:42,907
Shit!

900
01:13:12,605 --> 01:13:13,824
Ugh. Gross.

901
01:13:24,095 --> 01:13:25,357
How do I even...

902
01:13:27,403 --> 01:13:28,404
begin...

903
01:13:29,492 --> 01:13:31,015
to describe what just happened?

904
01:16:57,090 --> 01:16:58,178
Bye, Don.

905
01:16:58,222 --> 01:17:03,270
♪

906
01:17:56,454 --> 01:17:57,542
I'm confused.

907
01:17:58,848 --> 01:18:00,648
We're having a hard time
following your story.

908
01:18:01,981 --> 01:18:03,940
You said that you were
interviewing Mr. Thomas

909
01:18:03,983 --> 01:18:05,071
for a podcast.

910
01:18:05,115 --> 01:18:06,377
What about?

911
01:18:12,862 --> 01:18:14,167
I don't know anymore.

912
01:19:12,399 --> 01:19:13,923
I have no idea where Allen went.

913
01:19:13,966 --> 01:19:15,686
It's like he fell off
the face of the earth.

914
01:19:18,449 --> 01:19:19,537
Yeah, I know.

915
01:19:22,670 --> 01:19:23,759
Hey, hold on one second.

916
01:19:30,722 --> 01:19:32,811
Oh, my God.

917
01:19:34,204 --> 01:19:37,076
Still haven't found number 52.

918
01:19:39,165 --> 01:19:41,428
I see these boxes
scattered around.

919
01:19:42,952 --> 01:19:44,910
It's kind of like
Jean is watching me.

920
01:19:47,130 --> 01:19:48,914
The second thing
you need to know

921
01:19:48,958 --> 01:19:53,049
is that this entire place
is booby trapped.

922
01:19:53,092 --> 01:19:54,528
They loved your story, Allen.

923
01:19:56,792 --> 01:19:58,445
- Are you serious?
- Yeah.

924
01:19:59,011 --> 01:20:00,665
I loved your story.

925
01:20:00,708 --> 01:20:05,322
It's got so much heart
and suspense.

926
01:20:06,236 --> 01:20:08,151
It's a survival story,
people love that.

927
01:20:09,892 --> 01:20:11,347
It's got a bit of everything,
doesn't it?

928
01:20:11,371 --> 01:20:12,459
Yeah.

929
01:20:13,417 --> 01:20:14,505
It was a bitch to get.

930
01:20:15,419 --> 01:20:16,463
Yeah, I bet.

931
01:20:17,595 --> 01:20:21,120
So listen, APR wants you back.

932
01:20:21,642 --> 01:20:22,730
Oh, I don't know.

933
01:20:24,732 --> 01:20:26,082
I mean, what about the lawsuit?

934
01:20:26,125 --> 01:20:27,823
I have a meeting

935
01:20:27,866 --> 01:20:30,042
with the board of directors
at APR in the morning,

936
01:20:30,086 --> 01:20:34,177
but word is that the case
is not going anywhere.

937
01:20:37,876 --> 01:20:39,225
They really
want you back, Allen.

938
01:20:42,272 --> 01:20:44,491
They did have one note
for the story.

939
01:20:46,232 --> 01:20:47,364
What?

940
01:20:48,060 --> 01:20:49,192
We never see the monster.

941
01:20:50,454 --> 01:20:52,325
And? It's a podcast.

942
01:20:52,369 --> 01:20:55,415
I know that, but...
maybe we do, like,

943
01:20:55,459 --> 01:20:58,070
a video and get somebody
to animate your story.

944
01:20:58,114 --> 01:21:00,768
I just... I feel like people
are going to be disappointed

945
01:21:00,812 --> 01:21:03,075
if they don't get
an image of the monster.

946
01:21:03,119 --> 01:21:06,774
I mean, you did see it, right?

947
01:21:07,471 --> 01:21:09,821
I mean, the focus
of the story is Don, isn't it?

948
01:21:10,822 --> 01:21:12,041
Does the monster even matter?

949
01:21:12,084 --> 01:21:14,565
Yes, Allen, it does.

950
01:21:14,608 --> 01:21:16,238
Of course it matters,
it's a monster story.

951
01:21:16,262 --> 01:21:18,182
You can't have a monster story
without a monster.

952
01:21:22,051 --> 01:21:23,139
Let me think about it.

953
01:21:24,531 --> 01:21:26,794
- I'll get back to you.
- Awesome.

954
01:21:28,187 --> 01:21:29,275
Welcome back, Allen.

955
01:21:31,451 --> 01:21:33,411
Can't wait to see what
your next story's gonna be.

956
01:21:34,541 --> 01:21:37,501
Hey. Also, I'm curious,

957
01:21:37,544 --> 01:21:39,111
this monster
with all the eyes...

958
01:21:40,417 --> 01:21:43,550
do you think there's more
in the woods near Don's house?

959
01:21:48,991 --> 01:21:52,429
For Don's sake,
I really hope so.

960
01:22:26,245 --> 01:22:27,986
This is U.S. Sane.

961
01:22:31,685 --> 01:22:32,904
Whenever you're ready.

962
01:22:51,749 --> 01:22:53,011
I'm not ready.

963
01:22:57,929 --> 01:22:59,626
I have an amazing
story, but I'm not...

964
01:23:00,845 --> 01:23:01,933
ready to tell it.

965
01:23:04,066 --> 01:23:07,243
Life is complicated.

966
01:23:10,202 --> 01:23:12,117
People... people are complicated.

967
01:23:15,555 --> 01:23:18,080
You don't need a podcast host
to tell you that.

968
01:23:21,170 --> 01:23:23,085
People are always
trying to find...

969
01:23:24,521 --> 01:23:27,785
a meaning
in life's complications.

970
01:23:28,873 --> 01:23:30,092
Even when that meaning is...

971
01:23:31,963 --> 01:23:33,486
Even when that meaning
makes no sense.

972
01:23:35,749 --> 01:23:37,795
Sometimes crazy things happen.

973
01:23:38,970 --> 01:23:41,755
And they add up,
and they add up,

974
01:23:41,799 --> 01:23:44,845
and add up, and the meaning...

975
01:23:47,022 --> 01:23:48,066
is nothing.

976
01:23:51,243 --> 01:23:52,462
That's okay,

977
01:23:54,029 --> 01:23:56,857
because eventually the meaning
will rise to the surface.

978
01:23:58,468 --> 01:24:00,426
Maybe not in a clear,
decoded way,

979
01:24:03,255 --> 01:24:04,517
but it will.

980
01:24:05,736 --> 01:24:07,216
In the meantime...

981
01:24:08,391 --> 01:24:10,697
let me tell you
the important facts,

982
01:24:13,657 --> 01:24:15,398
and together
we'll find the story.

983
01:24:18,270 --> 01:24:19,358
Let me begin...

984
01:24:22,013 --> 01:24:23,493
with a free-spirited...

985
01:24:24,494 --> 01:24:28,715
and unpredictable man
named Don Thomas...

986
01:24:30,021 --> 01:24:31,066
and...

987
01:24:32,415 --> 01:24:33,764
his wife Jean.

988
01:24:35,157 --> 01:24:36,288
Who kept him grounded.
