Aw.

Aw, Gus-Gus, such a good boy.

Gus-Gus, aw.

That's a good boy, Gus-Gus.

Hey, my boy.

Hey, Cameron, can you guys
turn it down a scooch?

I'm gonna give your dad a call.

Such a good boy.

Yeah, hm.

Hey, babe.

Hey, honey, what's your ETA?

Probably 10, 15.

Okay, good, we're about
10 minutes out ourselves.

How's Cam doing?

Ah, he's good.

He knows that
Gus-Gus and Wembley

need a little more practice if
they're gonna win next year.

Thata boy.

What about our little lady?

Oh, man, she's awake right
now and I tell you what,

earlier, ugh, it felt
like she was doing

backstrokes in there.

I was dyin'!

Hey, Dad, did Uncle
Adrian's gift come in?

Babe, did you hear that?

Yeah, buddy,
I got right here.

I heard you guys put
on a real good show.

Yeah, pretty good I guess.

Sorry I
couldn't be there, Cam.

I'm sorry, these guys just
they flew in for this meeting.

I had to be there.

I'm sorry I couldn't
get out of it.

It's okay, Dad.

You're allowed one miss.

It'll be the last miss.

Keith, so Clara is
already over at Adrian's.

- Yeah.
- And you know how she is.

Uh, she's good for it.

Okay, well, actually I'm about
to Adrian's road right now.

You know how tricky
it can be for me.

I'm gonna go ahead
and get off here.

You got it.

Okay, love you.

- Drive safe.
- Love y'all.

See you soon.

Hey, Cameron,
we're almost there.

It's okay, Gus-Gus and Wembley.

We'll win next
year, don't worry.

Okay, Cameron,
you guys need to make sure

to go in nice and quiet, okay?

You know that your Uncle Adrian

isn't feeling too
well right now.

I said, what are
you gonna do about it, huh?

Arm please and you
know the drill.

Adrian, how many times are you
gonna read that blasted book?

Not enough.

I just keep finding fixes.

I think you'd know it
well enough by now,

you wrote the thing.

Clara does the same
thing with her paintings.

Guilty as charged.

All right, Cheryl, let's
turn things on you now.

You gonna give
Robert that tool set

or you just gonna keep
sitting on it forever?

Our anniversary isn't for
another week, Mr. Smartypants.

You should've written
Monette out of the book,

and put in that mysterious girl
you dated 10 years ago that

you're always talking about,
whose name still nobody knows.

He writes in his terrible
ex-wife, Monette,

and the girl he's really into
never makes an appearance

in any of his books
for some reason.

And I'm his sister and
I can't get a mention.

Well, she may not appear
in any of his books,

but Shannon shows up
in a dream or two.

Oh, Shannon.

We finally have a name.

You do realize you talk
in your sleep, right?

Uncle Adrian.

Hey, hey,
Cameron, how'd you guys do?

Not so hot.

They seem to forget everything
when everyone is watching.

Like what?

They forgot how to shake hands.

No.

Let's see.

Sit, shake.

Good boy.

Shake, good boy.

Now they do it.

He's being stubborn again.

- His usual.
- Mm hm.

So, tell me, how did it go?

So, it went.

The buddies were pretty excited

and everything basically
went out the window.

- Hey, Wembley.
- Oh, man.

Well, Cameron seems to
be taking it really well.

Yeah, he's a trooper.

Where's Keith?

I thought he was coming.

Oh, he's on his way.

He should be here any minute.

I'm actually gonna go
out into the other room

to finish up these charts.

- Okay.
- But it was really good

- to see you guys.
- Thanks, Cheryl.

Thanks for taking care
of our wacky brother.

- Of course.
- How are you doing today?

Are you eating?

Yeah.

Looks like you've been eating.

- Yeah.
- Hey, Dad.

Stop.

Oh, hey, honey.

Hey.

Hey, Keith.

The snow all melted yet?

Yeah, you know Highway 55?

There was some up there near
Cascade, but Payette River,

it was really up right now.

Really?

Man, it seems like that
river is either always up

at the wrong time or always
down at the wrong time.

Uncle Adrian, I know
your birthday isn't

for another month,
but I couldn't wait.

What's this?

I saved up and bought it myself.

- Huh, Dad?
- Sure did.

Yeah.

He saw it in one of those
little shoppers on our flight

in January and he knew
you just had to have it.

What is this?

Wow.

Wow, I'd have to
sell a six by nine

oil painting to buy that.

I love it.

I can't wait to write
something with it.

In fact, I might write
something with it tonight.

Thanks a lot, Cameron,
I really like it.

You're welcome.

All right, gang,
it's getting late.

We have a late night tonight.

We gotta get ready for

- work and school tomorrow.
- Yeah.

- All right.
- All right, sounds good.

- I'll see you next time.
- All right, I'll catch up

- with you this weekend.
- You got it, Keith.

Thanks for reminding me.

I have six packages I have

to get ready for
tomorrow morning.

Oh, your business
is picking up, huh?

- Oh, yeah.
- I'm gonna head out

with them; I'm gonna
bum off some of their

turkey slow roasted chili
that's been going all morning.

Ah.

- Don't think that I forgot.
- No.

Truth comes out.

Well, you know I always
bring you your leftovers.

You better.

All right, I'll
see you next time.

All right, have a
good night. Bye.

Paige, Paige.

What's up, what?

What is it?

I'm thinking about
working on something new.

- Okay.
- It may not be down

in manuscript form
as soon I'd like,

but well, just in
case something happens

and it doesn't get finished.

No, don't do that,
don't do that.

- All right.
- We're not going there yet.

What is it about?

Adrian can't sleep,
that's what it's about.

You still can't sleep, even
with all this pain medication?

Oh, nevermind that,
this is special.

It's nonfiction this time.

Heck, you might even like it.

Paige, you
ready to head out?

Yeah, I'm coming, honey.

I gotta get going.

All right, I'll
see you next time.

All right, have a good night.

- Tomorrow.
- Okay, bye-bye.

The opportunity
will come again

for you to see her again.

- I can't go there.
- Let it happen.

Hey, you ready for
your evening shot?

I guess I have no choice.

You sure, you
usually turn me down.

I'm shocked.

Okay, well, since I'm
getting my way today I guess.

Well, not that much of a way.

Do you want some melatonin
to help you sleep?

Nah, I'm good.

I'm not in pain right now.

Whiskey?

No.

Lullaby?

Now that one's kinda tempting.

Oh, please don't.

I really can't sing.

Yeah, I've heard
you sing before.

Yeah.

- Nah, I'm good.
- All right.

Well, Mr. Stubborn, at some
point you and I are gonna have

a conversation
about you secretly

quitting your chemo
and your radiation.

Now you're not even using the
light duty stuff to help you.

Are you sure you
don't want something

to help you sleep tonight?

No thanks, Cheryl.

I'm gonna be sleeping
real good tonight.

Okay.

I'll come back in later before
I go home for my own sleep

just to check in case you
change your mind, okay?

All right.

- Hey, Cheryl.
- Yeah?

If I woulda had three sisters,
you woulda been the third.

All right, let's go.

When we get there, I want
you guys to wait for me

at the end of the road.

Wait for me, I'm going in alone.

I wanna find him.

Yeah, do we?

His mother
must've been a good woman.

I wanted to do
something, but I couldn't.

Hey, Cheryl.

Do me a favor and take
care of that little one

and sit down first, okay?

Yeah, he's, he's gone.

How?

I don't understand,
we were just there.

He was fine when we were there.

I'm so sorry.

Okay, thank you, Cheryl.

Thanks for calling.

- Is it gonna fit okay?
- Yeah, it's gonna fit great.

- Thanks.
- You got that, sis?

I do.

Did you know he had this trunk?

I was actually
just thinking that.

I've never noticed it before.

That's so odd, it was just
in the closet with his shoes.

But that does remind me of this.

Last night when I went
in after he was gone.

- What's this?
- It was on his nightstand

- addressed to both of you.
- How weird.

You don't
know what it is?

I have no idea.

I've never seen it before.

- Did you know about this?
- No, not at all.

Go ahead and give it an open.

Okay.

"Paige, I wanted to
make sure you and Clara

got this before the
publishing people do.

When you're ready, there's
something in the trunk.

You'll know, Adrian."

So mysterious.

Thanks, Cheryl.

He gave us a
homework assignment.

- He was so mysterious.
- I was just thinking that.

I guess he has one more
chase for you guys to solve.

Yeah.

Speaking of mystery, where is
it that you're headed next?

Pinecliffs Medical Center.

They were trying to get me to
work for them for months, but.

- That's right.
- I didn't wanna leave Adrian.

It didn't feel right.

So, I'll start next week
and complete change of pace.

- Post-op care.
- Oh, wow.

- Yeah.
- Yeah, a lot different.

A little easier on
the heartstrings.

Well, they're
gonna be lucky to have you.

- We have been.
- Yeah.

We really appreciate everything
you've done for Adrian.

Let me know when
services are, okay?

- We will.
- Of course.

- I wouldn't wanna miss that.
- Thank you so much.

We'll see you soon, Cheryl.

Absolutely, you guys.

You take care and
take care of that one.

It's okay, bud.

It's okay.

- We appreciate it.
- Yeah.

Whoa.

It's a lotta stuff, huh?

That's a lotta stuff.

Oh, it's not that bad.

But now you know why
I need to get here

and just organize it.

It'll help take my
mind off of things.

- I have to take this.
- Okay.

- Yeah, go ahead.
- Hello?

This is she.

By tomorrow?

Okay.

Yeah, I can get it done.

Okay, thanks.

Bye.

Don't tell me you're leaving me.

I have to complete my
commission by tomorrow.

- Okay.
- I'm gonna have to go.

All right.

Let me know if you need
help with anything, okay?

Okay, I'll get started on it.

- I appreciate you trying.
- Okay.

- Thank you, good luck.
- Bye.

- Bye.
- Thanks.

- Be safe.
- I will.

"I wanted to make
sure you and Clara

got this before the
publishing people do.

When you're ready, there's
something in the trunk.

You'll know, Adrian."

What's that clicking?

Look how young you look.

What's that?

Adrian.

"Working title
that I don't like."

Wonderland, Utopia,
Melancholy and Terror.

"By Adrian Aytese."

"Forward. "

Not more than one hour ago,
my special nephew, Cameron.

Cameron gave me the best
gift I've ever received,

this pen that instantly
inspired me to write this out.

This journal book has sat with

- "empty pages since 2019."
- Empty pages since 2019,

at which time I intended to
materialize a bizarre experience

as well as a tender, yet
horrific reality from seven years

before that in
descriptive words.

However, I just couldn't.

What is so vividly
ingrained in my memory

from the two most unforgettable
experiences of my life,

were also the ones that I
couldn't bring myself to share.

Historically, I write fiction,

so I don't have to
face some realities.

The mask is off the
pen, so to speak.

Barely two years ago on the
tail end of winter in early.

March of 2019, a simple visit
with my friend and neighbor,

Bud Millen, changed
everything since.

I was still healthy
as I knew me to be,

yet feeling terrible
from the chronic insomnia

that has owned me since always.

As an educated, well-traveled,
and intuitive man,

Bud knew this, especially
since I complained to him

with it every time
I'm working on a book.

Sitting by the warm
fire at his house,

he easily perceived
something not completely free

of destruction with me that day.

Adrian, remember, never, never,
ever, ever, ever get old.

I'm already getting there, Bud.

No, you're not, no, no.

God, you think you're old?

No.

What is it?

You're not happy.

You're not like
you're usually are.

You just finished a
book, haven't you?

Yeah, the scary part is it's
actually doing pretty good.

Yeah, but normally when
you finish a book you're,

you're happy, you're excited.

Aren't you looking
forward to it?

Yeah, I mean, it's good.

I mean, the book's doing about
as well as can be expected,

- but- - No, no, no, no.

I've never seen you like this.

I've seen you on
a number of books.

You're not, what is it?

- Come on, tell me.
- No, it's actually doing

better than I
expected it would do.

Are you dreaming?

Is something bothering you?

- No.
- What, no, well,

if you're not sleeping,
are you dreaming?

Are you having bad dreams, what?

Oh, of course you know me.

Every time I write a
book, I can't sleep.

But when usually when
the book is done...

Sometimes dreams can
help you, you know?

They can, a good dream can
make you feel really good.

Yeah, okay, and how do you
just make those happen?

Well, I don't make those happen.

Um, .

You know, I've done these
archeological digs, right?

Yeah and I was looking
at your picture earlier.

This is one I haven't seen.

Did you just find this and
bring this out or something?

- I don't know.
- I haven't seen this one yet.

You know, I've dug in
Panama and Costa Rica

and New Mexico,
Arizona, but I also,

I dug something else out that
just might be of help to you.

Like a fossil or something?

What are you gonna do, are
you gonna eat a fossil?

Now, this is between you and me.

And I'm not gonna tell you
which one I dug it from,

I'm gonna give you some.

A little pouch.

Here, hold that.

Now, do not take too much.

I, I, um, when I found out it
was safe and wasn't poisonous

I tried a teaspoon.

I didn't know where
I was for two days.

- Um.
- Quarter of a teaspoon.

The tiniest amount.

It's fine, it's not
poisonous, it's healthy.

It'll make you relax.

It'll make you sleep again
like you used to sleep,

but it also gives
you nice dreams.

Good dreams, very,
very special dreams.

I could use that.

Did you get this when
you were doing that?

Um, I found it in an Oya.

Some of the greatest pottery
every uncovered in this area,

but we found dirt, landslides,

all the stuff that
has covered this ruin,

we had to dig that deep
just to hit the bottom

of the first floor.

You startled me.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.

I'm just going through
Adrian's stuff.

- You sure?
- Yeah, I'm okay.

Okay, if I can help
you let me know.

I got it, thank you.

- Okay.
- Thanks for checkin' on me.

- Yeah, okay.
- Up until that evening,

I wasn't exactly
pumped about ingesting

this peculiar sand powder
Bud had discovered years ago,

but had kept secret from
the rest of the world.

It was an afterthought until

I had settled
under the blankets.

All of it
goes in the bag!

Now!

All of it, now!

You better move your ass.

I'll take that,
thank you very much.

All right, now here's
what's gonna happen next.

Blondie, you'll
lock the front door,

and then we're all gonna take
a field trip to the back room.

Nice and easy.

After all we've been through,
I still don't know your name.

I'm Kat.

- And I'm Joe.
- As in Sloppy Joe?

Uh, no.

I'm not that sloppy.

Yes, yes, you are.

I mean, look at you,
you can't even match up

a correct gig line.

- A gig what?
- A gig line.

It's a military thing you do.

My god, it's where
your zipper, your belt,

and your shirt buttons
all line up together.

Okay, enough.

Dallas, my man.

Not a day grace
to clear this up.

Find a number of lockers
there, put it one of them,

and then you'll give
the key to grand

The way we figured it,
we're 830 miles from Malibu.

What the?

- How can that be?
- I don't wanna do this here.

Man, how can you be
around normal people

and still be so slow?

- What the hell's going on?
- Do this here?

Need a shower on the
go no matter where you are?

You can even use it in your
home shower to free you up

of those pesky water hoses.

Call 1-800-SHOWER.

That's 1-800-SHOWER, act now.

It's not really about the money.

I'm just never
liked you that much.

You bullied me, you put me down,

I really didn't appreciate that.

You know?

You know where I'm coming from!

I don't particularly
dislike you,

it's just that you were
in the wrong place,

running with the wrong people
at a very, very wrong time.

Dallas, Dallas, Dallas, Dallas.

You can barely keep your
eyes- Must be the drink.

You don't know if
it's blood or sweat.

Just go to sleep.

Adrian, .

- Oh, you are a loser.
- I'm not Adrian.

I'm Eddie from
"Stealing Sunrise."

You pipsqueak.

You're a sorry excuse for a man.

Just let yourself go.

Oh, Adrian.

I'm not Adrian, I'm Eddie
from "Stealing Sunrise."

You're who I say you are.

Keep running.

Will you just hold still?

Your family doesn't love you.

In fact, you're
an embarrassment.

I shouldn't even
call 'em your family.

It's not like they had a choice
to have you in their life.

Oh, you do look pathetic.

This ain't Cupid's area.

Keep you
from burning yourself.

- Oh.
- And if it looks pretty

enough you could hang it up
and decorate your kitchen.

That's cool.

Adrian, hi.

Hi.

Shannon, I would like
you to meet my grandson.

Adrian, I'd like
you to meet Shannon.

I'd kinda like for
you to be her friend.

I'm too tough for girls.

Girls are for pansies.

Oh, sweetheart.

You're gonna be so
sorry you said that.

10 years from now you're gonna
be doing the exact opposite

in the way of
thinking with a girl.

Shannon.

To me like to her, you know
I didn't mean it, baby.

You know I run off at the mouth.

It wasn't what you
supposed to have heard.

Lisa, come on, baby.

It's me, George,
you know how it is

when I get that
sauce in me, baby.

It's not what you think it was.

And it's not what
you heard, baby.

You just have to give
me another second to...

Adrian?

Adrian!

Me, George.

You always do
that to me, George.

- George from the Cotton Club.
- Oh!

- Oh, yes, from my book.
- Oh, yes!

I wanna thank you because
you helped me out a lot.

If it wasn't for
you and the book,

I would've never made
it into the Cotton Club.

Those fellas around the corner

was gonna rough me up
something really nice.

I would've never it inside and
I went on tour with Callaway.

Yeah, I, I'm
glad I could help.

Hey, come here, come here.

You ever had a woman
like this right here?

I don't know your woman.

Ooh, it's a good
thing you don't.

You don't want a
woman like that.

Check it out, this
is what I wanna do.

You writing another book?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Am I in this book?
- Yeah, you're gonna be in it.

Do me a favor.

Write me another woman.

I want someone that can get
on the dance floor with me,

you know, who can make
it work like this here.

She's gotta be tall,
firm, mocha color,

like a nice cup up coffee.

Can you do that for me?

Yeah, I can do that.

I can do that for sure, yeah.

Really, you can do it for me?

Yeah, you're in the book, man.

'Cause I can't do this no more.

Remember George is my only

I'm writing another one.

It's gonna be called
"Magnificent Truth."

Well, I appreciate it
'cause that was good.

Yeah, George from my book,
"Magnificent Lie," chapter six.

- That's right, chapter six.
- He's chapter six.

- Wow.
- Chapter six.

See, baby, I'm in a sequel.

I don't need you.

Stay up there.

Don't even come down,
I don't need you.

Don't need you.

I'll do fine by myself.

Adrian,
you are a terrible writer.

I'm going to ram your
useless head off.

That ugly head of
yours is useless.

Stop writing books.

Stop writing books.

Stop writing books.

Adrian, I just never
really liked your books.

And you wrote me
outta the novel.

That really put me down.

I didn't appreciate
that, you know?

You know where I'm coming from!

Shannon, I don't
particular dislike you,

you're just in the wrong place,
running with the wrong guy,

at a very, very wrong time.

You can barely keep
your eyes closed.

You're barely dreaming.

Got something better for you.

At first you don't know if
it's hot or if it's cold.

You don't know if it's
blood or if it's ink.

Adrian, I knew I'd be
seeing you sooner or later.

How's Paige, Cammy and Keith?

How are they doing, oh no,
nevermind the pleasantries.

You're wondering
what am I doing here?

And you're wondering
what am I doing here?

Meaning not you, me.

What am I doing

Ah, that's time.

You're gonna have
to figure this out.

Look, I'll be seeing
you again soon.

Bet on it.

Need a shower on the
go no matter where you are?

You can even use it
in your home shower

to free you up of those pesky...

"Saturday Night
Fever" is now rated PG,

because we want everyone to hear

the number one group

Live at the world
famous discotech suburb hub

in the heart of the entertainment
capital of the world,

Las Vegas, Nevada.

Bud said it would work.

Maybe I didn't take enough.

A gentle welcome

Thank you.

Adrian, this is
for your own good.

Yes, Adrian, we know
what's best for you.

This is not
an intervention.

This is not an intervention.

This is not an intervention.

This is not an intervention.

This is not an intervention.

This is not an intervention.

Adrian, as I predicted.

You must excuse the alteration
in my physical cotenants.

That is the direct result
of the chemical components

of the Mojave sand on
the neuro receptors

of your hippocampus,

which be as it may,
observe window.

Windows, it's time for
you to slowly leap out.

Inward, inward, inward
look inward too,

I remember finding your

That is my time.

Shannon?

Hi, Adrian.

Is that you, Shannon?

Girls are for pansies.

Oh, about that, I...

Things change.

Does anyone know
where I can find Bud?

Bud, yeah, he's down
on White House Road,

just over the tracks.

No, no, that's not right.

I saw him over at the gym.

- He was just over there.
- I don't know, man.

I went to the
grocery this morning,

and I saw him in
the meat department.

No, that's not where he is.

He's over at Jack's.

- You don't know.
- He was getting short ribs.

- He's at Jack's.
- Ah, come on.

Jack doesn't have short ribs.

- Come on, you know that.
- Well, he's.

Check next
time in the meat aisle.

Are you guys new,

do you know who we're talking
about?

Are you trying to fall?

This is exactly
where Shannon fell.

I don't remember.

This is the cliff where
you proposed to Shannon.

Right here!

She slipped, you
tried to catch her.

You couldn't, she can't
swim and you couldn't swim!

We can go see
the whole world again.

Shannon!

- Hold on!
- Adrian!

Shannon!

The opportunity will come
again for you to see her again.

Let it happen.

Let it happen.

- I don't wanna fall.

Trust me.

You
bleed so easily, Adrian.

Nobody loves you.

Shannon does not care about you.

Stop writing books, Adrian.

Poor Adrian couldn't
hold on to Shannon.

Keith can't help you now.

Keith's not here.

Bud is not your friend.

He is why you're here.

Monette really dodged
a bullet with you.

There he goes.

- Upgrade to the golden model.

Act now, and you'll get the
Rain Clean Golden Shower model

upgrade for the same price
as the Silver Shower model.

Call 1-800-SHOWER.

That's 1-800-SHOWER, act now.

- Answering machine.
- Yep.

- I'll tell ya what-
- Answering machine.

It's 3:30 in the morning

and the troops are ready to go.

We're gonna have a hot
one tonight, Frank.

Jeff, this week
on "Newsweek Magazine"

which is probably the
most prestigious magazine

in the country today.

It says, "disco takes over."

I mean, we all recognize
the very, very fine talents

of the producer and the
very, very fine artists

that you have available to us.

We are delighted to
have with us tonight

the internationally famous group

who've I've seen on my
nights.

We're really very proud to
have you with us tonight.

But before we do, Jeff,

disco dancing has
really taken over.

And you are known
to be a dancer.

I'm known
to be a few things.

Before we introduce
some of the routines

that you have put together,

Jeff, disco dancing,
it's here and look,

apparently it's here to stay.

And the
adults and the teens.

Monette?

Adrian?

Well, um, this is
my new, younger,

more attractive
boyfriend, Brody.

- Hi, I'm Brody.
- He's a firefighter

if you can't already tell.

And he's like-
Yeah, I fight fires

and put out

He's like also super
good with kids.

He was gonna be Santa Claus
for the kids this year,

but his six pack was
showing too much.

And also, his hair.

You should see his hair.

He looks like me.

Uh, no, he looks
nothing like you.

Like, can you see?

Are you still doing
those what, book writing,

- whatever you call it?
- This guy is book writer?

- He writes books and stuff?
- Yeah, like obviously

nothing too important.

Adrian.

I thought I was very clear.

We were not to meet again.

Now it's too late.

It's too late.

You have no way out, none.

You didn't have a look
in the mirror did you?

You never looked in
time.

You never looked in a mirror
and now your time is up.

There's only one
thing you can do.

Get some sleep.

- Stop writing books.

You bleed and cry
like a baby, Adrian.

If only Shannon could
see you cry, Adrian.

Stop living.

Double time.

It's time for me to go, Adrian.

I'm just gonna have to
leave and say farewell

until we meet again.

Goodbye, Adrian.

Adrian?

Adrian?

Is that a rabbit?

Adrian, you've got to look up.

Shannon.

Hello, Adrian.

I thought it important to come
and spend some time with you.

Your parents and their
well wishes and their love.

I've spent time with them.

They're so incredibly
proud of you.

Adrian, it's mom.

I know you've been
struggling lately.

You should listen to the angel,

she knows what
she's talking about.

I'm sorry you've had
such a restless night.

It's gotta be hard having
all those thoughts,

all those dreams.

You gotta concentrate
more on your books.

Ignore that dream you had.

- That dream wasn't real.
- Oh, yes, you will

have an opportunity
to see Shannon.

You two will have a very
long time to spend together.

Adrian, you've got to
go to sleep sometime.

And honey, that night
of the car accident,

don't feel bad about that night.

Adrian, you stay
put here now, okay?

Shannon.

And I would
imagine every young lady

in this audience
would be privileged

to dance with you tonight.

Well, there
are some young ladies

in this audience that I'd
love to dance with tonight.

In fact, I was waiting for you

to ask me that question, Frank.

You know, before
we invite your group

to participate and
show some of the very,

very finely tuned dance
machine, would you be willing.

Yeah, they're getting warmed up.

Would you be willing
to boogie with me?

- Woo!
- Let's try it.

- All right, let's go.
- Let's go.

- Let 'em hang out, Jeff.
- Come on!

Following the
dreams and nightmares

when I collapsed
after the vertigo,

vision disturbances
and trembling,

I assumed that it
was due to exhausted

or the stuff I had drunk
or something of the sort.

Later that day, I
went to visit Bud

to give him my thoughts
on his special sand.

Adrian, how did that
little drink concoction

that I recommend you make?

Bud, I gotta tell you.

I had some good dreams
on it like you said.

- Good.
- But I had some really

terrible dreams too,
I had nightmares.

I mean, it started out good.

I dreamt of my grandma
who's been dead for years.

And then, I saw
myself in there too,

but it looked like my
nephew, Cameron, not like me.

I mean, a barber shop
quartet tried to attack me,

and they just, they
were singing at me.

It was really weird.

I had a theremin player
try to creep me out playing

this theremin instrument
and all this other stuff.

And he's made up my head.

He's not even real.

A girl in a black outfit tries
to shoot me with crossbow,

and it just kept going on...

My ex-wife, I ran into
Monette on the streets of LA.

Haven't been to LA in years.

She has her boyfriend with
her, a new guy named Brody.

Some young guy in
a fireman outfit.

Why is he wearing fireman outfit
in my dream? I don't know.

And then, to end it all,
I dream about my parents

with this angel trying to
tell me how to live my life.

- Adrian.
- Is it.

Stop.

Don't take anymore.

No, I'm serious.

I think you oughta lay off.

Please.

Please, no more.

Just, just lay off of it.

You don't have to tell me twice.

But I had dreams about you too.

I had good, I mean, you can
be the nicest guy in a dream,

or you can be the most
terrifying guy in a dream.

I don't wanna dream
about either one of you.

That's what my wife used to say.

God rest her soul.

So, you said you had good
dreams on this stuff,

but did you actually have
nightmares like I did?

Bad dreams?

Adrian, there were a great ones.

But I have got to tell you that
I have tasted my own death.

Death.

For years now.

Don't take anymore.

Three days
later, I was proven wrong

in my assumption about the
reason for my collapse.

I was easily and
swiftly diagnosed

with this disruptive
evil called cancer.

- Mom.

Hey, honey.

Are you going to bed?

Not quite yet, but
you should get to bed.

It's getting pretty late.

Okay?

Good night.

- Okay.
- Okay.

I had come
to rely on advice

and many friendly visits
with Bud, but he went away.

That is to say that he disappeared
once my treatment began

and the medications had grounded

and dulled my perception
of my environment.

He was real for 74 years, but
I couldn't see him anymore.

Just as probably no
one else could since.

He didn't move away
with possessions.

You see, he was a spirit.

A ghost living in our
modern material world.

I have a printed file photocopy

to support my knowing of him.

I hastily emptied the
pouch of sand powder

in the sink the morning
after the dreams

and cleansed the suede
of its former contents.

I'll never know what
was really in it.

I haven't seen him
nor anyone else

at Bud's house for
more than a year now.

Bud?

Oh yeah.

I think that you really have
to look for the girl, Shannon.

I can't go there.

You have to go there sometime.

Trust me.

Shannon was real.

The mysterious lady,
as my sisters Paige

and Clara liked to call her.

The dancer, the
halcyon of my life

for the better part of a year.

I thought I saw her
in my dream as a child

with my dear grandmother,
but I could've been mistaken.

She was also the victim of
tragedy at the tip of my hand.

We met 10 years ago in Boise,

but during out time
together while I was on

a year-long retreat, we traveled
the country incessantly.

After her fall, there
was no need for my family

to learn of what was
ours and ours only.

What would that do for anyone?

I knew where Shannon was at
the whole time in those dreams.

I just couldn't bear the thought

of being with her in that way.

But now, it's
inevitable and destined.

Bud told me that I
would see Shannon again

if I wait for the opportunity
and let it happen.

Here we are.

My urge is to forego my
family's longtime resting lawn

in Gorge County for
a specified location

as listed in my
advanced directive.

I know my precious
family will understand.

In these past four hours,

I've written without
inhibition and without rest.

A record for me,
as I usually write

from emotionally afar with
deliberation and facade.

No excessive use of adjectives
to fill in the pages

or to guide the
reader to my lair.

Still, in this book, I
could say more in words,

but I have not much
more left in my hand,

as everything seems to be coming

to a halt in this very moment.

Some believe that
your after future

is what you believe it will be.

I've been believing
in mine for some time,

and I am strangely
looking forward

to being let in
on the big secret.

Of course, as
cliche as it sounds,

we all find out eventually.

Though the visions and
sounds in those dreams

and nightmares appeared
behind my closed eyes,

my mind was stuck,
awake and real, mostly.

I was barely dreaming.

Hey, honey.

Do you know Mr. Volner's number?

Whose number?

It's Adrian's publisher
over at Brain.

I think I still have it in the
junk drawer in the kitchen.

Does he not know?

Well, I don't know
about that, but...

Looks like Adrian has
one more story to tell.

All right, Clara, I
just got to Adrian's.

I'll see you there in
about an hour, okay?

Bye.

- Hey, there.
- Hi.

Hi, my name is Paige.

My brother Adrian owned
the home next door.

Oh, hi, I'm Marsha.

I'm so sorry about your brother.

Yeah, he'll be missed.

Yeah, he will.

Marsha, huh.

It's funny, he never
mentioned a Marsha.

He did talk an awful
lot about a Bud.

Does that sound familiar?

Mm, no Bud, just me.

Huh.

Do you know if a Bud's
ever lived here before?

Um, well, I moved in a year ago.

And well, I understand it
sat empty for several years,

and I really don't know
who might've been here.

No Bud, how odd.

Well, if you don't
mind me asking,

have you ever noticed anything
strange happening here?

Well, I've had some
pretty strange dreams.

Kinda fun really.

I joke around a lot that
I think there's something

in the water 'cause it's
got a very unusual taste.

But you know, I'm
used to it now.

Why, is there a problem?

Oh, I'm sorry, yeah, no problem.

It's just there's
something about your home

that just feels
very familiar to me.

Maybe it reminds me of
something I saw on TV.

Oh, yeah, that's probably it.

Very good, thanks
for talking with me.

- Take care.
- Bye.

Cameron.

Cameron.

Uncle Adrian?

Cameron.

Uncle Adrian, are you down here?

Uncle Adrian?

Uncle Adrian?

I can't see you, Uncle Adrian,
but I can feel you're here.

You do remember this don't you?

I knew you'd stick
around, Uncle Adrian.

This might be good.

Hello down there.

- You forgot to take it.
- Can you smile?

- I am smiling.
- Okay.

I'm only kidding,
that was phenomenal.

You should!

Don't record either.

- Record what, I don't get it.
- Yeah.

I know you're recording.

I'm trying to
set it up for a picture.

I'm trying
to set it up for a picture.

No you're not.

You so are not.

Yeah, I'm
trying to get it right,

but the focus isn't working.

My butt.

Oh.

Do y'all still have
mints in the morning?

- Is that what they are?
- No, maybe.

I'll save you!

Help me.

Help me spin.
