Grandpa?

You're up.

You look like a clown walking around out there like that.

I'm not asking you to march in a parade, Grandpa. I'm asking you to look at me

like you used to.

You don't know a damn thing about the world I came up in.

Then tell me.

Grandpa?

No, no, no, no, this can't... Okay, I'm going back to sleep, and this is going

to be one bad dream.

Good morning, world. What a crazy dream.

God damn it, Hal.

You don't move right now, you're late for the plant.

Right. No phone.

Nobody's even born yet.

Al!

Al!

You deaf this morning?

1,200 an hour, Dale says.

Like that's something to brag on. My hands are gonna fall out before

Christmas.

You bring lunch?

No. You never bring lunch.

Yeah, no, for sure.

Yeah, no what?

I didn't sleep. I think I'm coming down with something.

You want me to tell Dale? He'll dock you, but he won't say nothing. No, no,

it's fine, it's fine.

Creak in my neck.

Sure.

Hey, hey, you got him stacked to the moon over here.

Sorry, my bad.

Your bad what?

Nothing.

Bin, feet, roll.

Bin, feet, roll. Same as always.

Bin, feet, roll.

Same as always.

You've run this line over a year.

I know. I didn't sleep. I told you.

Yeah. Okay.

I'll take the far end. You just keep up. Dale, don't come down until 10.

So Dale says to me, he says, Merrick, if you're going to run your mouth, you

might as well run the line. And I told him I can do both, and he did not care

for that.

What are you doing? Your dad picked you up.

Right, right.

Sorry, I spaced.

Two whole days, though.

No line, no foreman, no nothing.

I thought maybe... Anyway, see you at church tomorrow.

Long day.

I don't much like talking after a long day either, son.

This sucks.

This actually sucks.

How do I get back? There's got to be a, there's no internet. There's no

anything.

What in the hell did you do to your head?

It's just, it's fine. It's how I... Comb it flat. We're not walking in there with

you looking like that.

Say hello to the Whitkers.

Nice to meet you.

To see you. Nice to see you. Sorry.

Hello, Hal.

Hal.

Turn with me now to the book of Samuel. Here is Jonathan, the king's own son.

And here is this shepherd boy, David.

And we are told their souls were knit together, knit like cloth,

one into the other, that the one loved the other as he loved his own life.

Do you have anything on people who lose time, who wake up somewhere they

weren't? Amnesia? There's the medical section, but it's mostly... No, like

somebody else's life.

We have some books on dreams.

Thank you

You're

up can't sleep Dad pop

if I told you something something you weren't gonna believe Then

don't tell me

Whatever it is, it'll keep.

They pulled the fan out of the back shop again. The whole place is like an oven.

Dale's got his shirt off, and I'm telling you, nobody needed to see that.

Nobody.

You've been different since I don't know when.

Everybody else looks at you and sees the same old Hal.

I don't.

I got the truck Saturday.

If you want it.

Yeah.

Yeah?

Yeah.

And that's the ball game.

That's insane. You're cheating. That's actually insane.

You say the strangest damn thing.

Look at you.

What are you reading?

Nothing important anymore.

So Dale's got the whole line down for a busted belt and he's standing there like

it's my fault.

And he still thought I was kidding.

You two ever spend a day apart?

Not lately.

Ah, nobody else will have them.

My cousin says there's a

whole street out there.

A whole street, Hal.

I know there is.

How do you know?

I just do.

Get in my car!

You don't ever do this again.

Either of you.

60 years from now, nobody's even going to know I was here. That's not true. I

know it's not true. There are places, there are whole streets of people like

us out there right now holding hands in the daylight and nobody, it gets better

than this. I know it. I know it in my bones.

Friday, before dawn, the bridge road.

The Whitmer girl asked after you.

Twice.

Okay.

Merrick's boy.

Truck went off the road down by the lake sometime in the night.

Terrible thing.

What, you're up?

Yeah.

You're a long way from home.

Everybody says that.

No, this is your first time here.

But you've been here before.

How do I get back?

Same as anybody.

You need somewhere to land.

What does that mean?

Can't go back to a body that ain't there.

Thank you for calling the Psychic Connection Network. Our gifted advisors

are standing by to guide you.

We're calling him Miles.

The county ruled it an accident.

The truck left the road on a clear night on a road he had driven his whole life.

He was 22 years old.

The officer who investigated was the victim's own father, Deputy Raymond

Merrick. In 2019, a family member came forward with a statement Merrick made

shortly before his death.

In it, he admitted forcing his son's truck off the road that night.

He never gave a reason.

To this day, no one knows what Deputy Merrick believed his son had done.

Raymond Merrick died in 2003.

He is buried in the same cemetery as his son, 40 feet away.

When we return, a disappearance in a neighboring county and the letter that

reopened it 30 years later.

You don't know a damn thing about the world I came up in.

Then tell me.

If that one got you, do us a favor.
