WEBVTT - Introducing: The Passage

0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:06.640
<v Speaker 1>I am the faery man. I am here in the

0:00:06.680 --> 0:00:07.960
<v Speaker 1>in between.

0:00:10.280 --> 0:00:13.320
<v Speaker 2>In the shadows of the afterlife, where time stands still.

0:00:13.720 --> 0:00:17.400
<v Speaker 2>The ferryman of souls guides America's most influential spirits to

0:00:17.440 --> 0:00:20.800
<v Speaker 2>their eternal rest. You've been looking for me? Yeah, where

0:00:20.800 --> 0:00:21.520
<v Speaker 2>are you taking me?

0:00:23.200 --> 0:00:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Are you death? This road is not on any maps.

0:00:29.080 --> 0:00:29.960
<v Speaker 1>So bizarre the.

0:00:29.920 --> 0:00:32.960
<v Speaker 3>World holds more than mere imagination can contain.

0:00:33.520 --> 0:00:36.200
<v Speaker 1>It stretches beyond identity.

0:00:36.680 --> 0:00:38.680
<v Speaker 2>Do you even know who I am?

0:00:38.440 --> 0:00:40.720
<v Speaker 1>And my reflections?

0:00:40.840 --> 0:00:42.840
<v Speaker 2>Only a shadow and out law shore?

0:00:43.120 --> 0:00:43.680
<v Speaker 1>I am there.

0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:46.000
<v Speaker 3>I was an emperor of the dark.

0:00:46.240 --> 0:00:49.400
<v Speaker 1>I was a real actress. That's all I ever wanted

0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:49.640
<v Speaker 1>to be.

0:00:49.840 --> 0:00:52.199
<v Speaker 3>I saw my reflection in the waters, and I saw

0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:54.360
<v Speaker 3>a different face staring back at me.

0:00:55.640 --> 0:01:00.200
<v Speaker 1>On a course designed by its travelers, it spans the

0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:04.000
<v Speaker 1>thresholds between their most forbidden desires.

0:01:04.640 --> 0:01:05.760
<v Speaker 3>We all know sorrow.

0:01:05.880 --> 0:01:10.520
<v Speaker 1>We deserve to take what's our stand their greatest fears.

0:01:10.880 --> 0:01:13.600
<v Speaker 2>One year, one century, or the next.

0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:15.559
<v Speaker 3>This will be our ruin.

0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:19.360
<v Speaker 1>How much for a ticket? All I ask for in

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:23.240
<v Speaker 1>payment is a tale and accounting of their lives and

0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 1>the great temporary that is the land of the living.

0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:29.640
<v Speaker 2>Tales of triumph and tragedy.

0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:33.360
<v Speaker 1>You want a blood story.

0:01:33.160 --> 0:01:35.680
<v Speaker 2>Moments that shook the foundation of a nation, and the

0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:36.960
<v Speaker 2>ripples they left behind.

0:01:37.560 --> 0:01:40.680
<v Speaker 1>I am here to collect their spirits and carry them

0:01:40.720 --> 0:01:44.240
<v Speaker 1>to what comes next. Be it a.

0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:50.480
<v Speaker 3>Comfortable place of eternal light, a haunted purgatory of regret,

0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:53.640
<v Speaker 3>or I should be made to suffer one of the

0:01:53.800 --> 0:01:55.720
<v Speaker 3>nine rings of hell.

0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:03.800
<v Speaker 2>Join us on a journey through the veils of history

0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:07.320
<v Speaker 2>and the corridors of the afterlife. Is that and the

0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:08.040
<v Speaker 2>fog up there?

0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:11.280
<v Speaker 1>This ms par flesh, part shadow.

0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:14.679
<v Speaker 2>Where the souls of America's past revealed their deepest secrets.

0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:17.560

<v Speaker 2>In the most profound legacies. Fifty years of new stories.

0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:23.600
<v Speaker 2>Using my face, let me play you the songs that

0:02:23.680 --> 0:02:24.560
<v Speaker 2>the devil told me.

0:02:25.120 --> 0:02:26.480
<v Speaker 1>These are their stories.

0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:31.040

0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:34.400
<v Speaker 2>revelation about the threads that weave the tapestry of American culture.

0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:37.040
<v Speaker 1>They were running from the truth, and it was too

0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:39.200
<v Speaker 1>late for them, for all of us.

0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:42.799
<v Speaker 2>These are the tales that shaped the nation. Babies were

0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:46.680
<v Speaker 2>born and died, aunties and grandfathers and left by the

0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:47.880

0:02:47.720 --> 0:02:49.880
