00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: Greetings at Bienveniel's, fellow seekers of the dark.

2
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:16,920
Speaker 2: I'm Danny Trejope. Welcome to nocturnal Tales from the Shadows.

3
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 2: By the enchanted frames of this fire, we transcend time

4
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:25,959
Speaker 2: and space to enter the darkest depths of the Latin

5
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 2: American imagination. Legend and lore passed down through the years

6
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,480
Speaker 2: and retold with a twist.

7
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: Across generations, across borders and boundaries. Few legends are as

8
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: interwoven with the dark than el Ko Koi, also known

9
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: as Elkoko. For centuries, countless parents have invoked this monster's

10
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 1: name to keep their children in line.

11
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 3: Behave where KOKOI will get.

12
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 4: You, You might say, Elko Kui help raise many of us.

13
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 4: This shape shifting boogeyman hides in plosets and under beds,

14
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 4: waiting to prey upon you, kids that don't listen to

15
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 4: your parents. But are the children really to blame or

16
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 4: is it the parents that unwillingly invite in the darkness.

17
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 5: Looks like we're about to find out.

18
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 3: Gather around, children, it's story time.

19
00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 6: Oh woo, sir, SNAr.

20
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: Mom?

21
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 3: Mom? Why they did? Why are you yelling? You need

22
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 3: to go to bed? Something's something's under the bed. I

23
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 3: think it's the kokoo.

24
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 7: Oh my god, David, how many times do I have

25
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 7: to tell you?

26
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 3: Did you misbehave today?

27
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: No?

28
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 3: And you have nothing to worry about, right.

29
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 7: The cuckooy only gets kids if they're bad, I know,

30
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 7: or if they don't listen.

31
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 3: So are you gonna listen or what?

32
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: Yes?

33
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 3: Okay? Good?

34
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 7: Because if you keep waking me up, then you're really

35
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 7: gonna have something to worry about more than the kukui

36
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 7: you hear me? Yeah, and I'll go to bed. I'm

37
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 7: not gonna tell you again.

38
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 1: It's me.

39
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 3: It's not real. It's read then in amazing Man, I

40
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 3: give you come. I Ca'm down here the.

41
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 2: Man then call me.

42
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 3: David? Who locked the door? David?

43
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 2: What?

44
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 3: Who locked the door?

45
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 8: Was it you who loocked? Sorry? I think he might

46
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 8: be focusing on the wrong thing here, because you know

47
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 8: I was subducted, missing for twenty four hours before. Oh wow,

48
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 8: that seems like a long note there.

49
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 3: In a story like this, it's important to note.

50
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 8: A story what do you mean? Story?

51
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 3: What I mean? Is? In a memory like this, especially

52
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 3: one so traumatic, it's important to note the details. How

53
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 3: you remember it, how you recount it can offer insights

54
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 3: into what is oftentimes an evolving perception of these past events.

55
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 8: Well, I can tell you. I mean this memory it's

56
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 8: never changed. It's not of remembering that's the problem. It's

57
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 8: the problem is a wow. I just can't stop.

58
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 3: Why don't we talk a little more about this guilt

59
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 3: you've been feeling.

60
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, yeah, I knew today was gonna be a blast.

61
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 3: You're a new author. The el Kukui book series has

62
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 3: been tremendous and successful, and yet, by your own admission,

63
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 3: as the book's popularity grows, so does your sense of guilt.

64
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,039
Speaker 3: Can you help me unpack that?

65
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 8: Well, you watch the news, Monica? Yeah, are you sureation

66
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:36,159
Speaker 8: kway some else?

67
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 3: Monica's fine, But if you prefer to address me another way,

68
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 3: whatever's more comfortable for you.

69
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 8: Oh well, it's not a difficult connection to make my

70
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 8: young adult book. It's about children disappearing, right, And uh, well,

71
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 8: you can't turn on the TV or look at your

72
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 8: phone without there being another report of what children disappearing.

73
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 8: And I don't know, it's just a pretty easy line

74
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 8: to draw. I think.

75
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 3: So this guilt you're saying, you think your book is

76
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 3: in some way to blame And if I do i'd

77
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 3: say it's a stretch. Ah more than a stretch. I'd

78
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 3: say it's unlikely.

79
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 8: So you don't see it? No, well, hey, maybe I

80
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 8: need therapy.

81
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 3: Oh wait, all right, explain it to me. What do

82
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:24,239
Speaker 3: you see?

83
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 8: Okay, Okay, I just I just can't shake this feeling.

84
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 8: You know, people out there that they're being influenced by

85
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 8: the books, but by the lore, and it's making them

86
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 8: or it's resonating in a way that I never intended,

87
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 8: or maybe I did. I don't, I.

88
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 3: Don't, Okay, Okay, I won't sit here and tell you

89
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 3: it's not a valid concern. But I also don't think

90
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 3: that anyone can blame you. So why should you have

91
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,679
Speaker 3: you read the books? I have not no good? Why good?

92
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 8: You know what I could go for? There used to

93
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,159
Speaker 8: be this place in Corpus Jean Grinders. It was called

94
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 8: best chili dogs ever. I mean, I've been all around

95
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 8: the States now, I've been to book signings and things

96
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 8: like that, but I am telling you, nowhere, and I

97
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 8: mean nowhere even comes close to the majesty of those chili.

98
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 3: Dogs in Corpus Corpus Christy, my god, you know it.

99
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 3: I used to go there all the time. As a kid,

100
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 3: we would eat and eat and then play.

101
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 9: Yeah, I used to love that arcade.

102
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 8: How about that? Well, I guess it's good to have

103
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 8: some common ground. So where'd you go to school?

104
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 3: Well, that's gonna be our time, David.

105
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 8: How are you feeling, I'm all right, yeah, no, no,

106
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 8: I feel good. I think I'm I think i'd like

107
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 8: to continue these sessions better than the alternative.

108
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 3: That's that.

109
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 8: I don't know.

110
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 2: It's just.

111
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 8: Look actually, like you said, that's our time.

112
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 3: Right. Well, i'll see you later, David, not.

113
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 8: If I see you first.

114
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 10: But we want to start this morning with the search

115
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 10: for a missing twelve year old boy. Right now, I'll

116
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 10: want to please looking for a.

117
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 11: Child named.

118
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: You, Gaby. Can you at least pretend to be busy,

119
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 3: maybe even some good old fashionable breaking.

120
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 9: I don't know what that is.

121
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 3: Well, when clients are here, please off your phone. Oh

122
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 3: I'm sorry.

123
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 9: It's just there's been another missing child, they're saying, the

124
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 9: governor minded Clara state of emergency.

125
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 3: I know I'm not your therapist, but i'd advise you

126
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 3: to ease up on the dune strolling.

127
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 9: But if I listen to your advice, then I think

128
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 9: that means i'd have to start paying you. Good Night, Cabby,

129
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 9: good night Monica.

130
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 3: If you have any information about where this young boy

131
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 3: can be, you should contact. While he's using the number

132
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 3: of patient is guarded, well, it's more than that, he's

133
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 3: actively guarded. There's a hyper sense of self awareness that

134
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:28,199
Speaker 3: seems to coincide with a discomfort. It's almost as though

135
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 3: he's being held back by something which likely connects with

136
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 3: the guilt he's reporting. And while he says it's a

137
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 3: recent development, I'm not so sure. I believe.

138
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:59,840
Speaker 12: I don't know, bababe Hi, you'll never guess what i'

139
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 12: someone lived two perfectly good children outside.

140
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 3: Can we keep them?

141
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 5: Night?

142
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 3: Oh? My beautiful babies. I've missed you so much. Come here.

143
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 3: I'm not a baby, you're not. No, I'm a dragon.

144
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness. She's been doing that all day. She has.

145
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 9: It's kind of missing.

146
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 3: It's kind of annoying. He don't talk like that, Leo,

147
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:37,199
Speaker 3: what it is? Well? I was going to wait until

148
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 3: you were older to tell you. But what's the secret?

149
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,680
Speaker 3: Tell me? Tell me? Well, you're actually part dragon?

150
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 13: What?

151
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 3: Yeah? On your father's side, crue, we're dragons were dragon? Yes,

152
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 3: so you know do with the information what you.

153
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 7: Will, fine, I'll be a dragon because they don't have

154
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 7: to go to school.

155
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 12: Oh he has a Josh, listen to your mother better.

156
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,959
Speaker 3: That doesn't even make any sense. I'm a dragon, right, it.

157
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 12: Doesn't must be on that school I missed.

00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,320

204
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 3: It's okay, there's sleep. You were having a dream or

205
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 3: a nightmare? I guess, Oh my god, that was that

206
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 3: was terrible. You were starters. Hey one, I knew nothing.

207
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 3: I told you there was someone in the house, and

208
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 3: you just rolled over and went back to bed. That's

209
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 3: what you were dreaming about. How did you do that?

210
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 3: It wasn't me, It was a dream, Josh.

211
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 13: I can't be blamed for what he does or doesn't do.

212
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 3: Yes, you can't, And now I'm out at both of you. Gil,

213
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 3: But I.

214
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 13: Hate dream Josh.

215
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 14: But you don't know that.

216
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 3: For sure, David, the same thinking could be applied to

217
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 3: your perspective, the idea that these abductions are connected to your.

218
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 8: Book cost cost by my books.

219
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, so it's not just a feeling of guilt,

220
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 3: it's a commitment to it. Then what Well, you seem

221
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 3: very motivated to hold on to this guilt, to bear

222
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 3: responsibility for something by your own admission you can't prove

223
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 3: is your fault.

224
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 8: And if I had proof, well do you?

225
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 1: Okay?

226
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 8: Well, hypothetically speaking, I mean this is a safe space

227
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 8: for hypotheticals, right.

228
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 3: Well, I hope you feel this is a safe space

229
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 3: in general.

230
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 2: Okay.

231
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 8: You ever sleep on one of those eggshell maps toppers,

232
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 8: you know, the ones with all the little bump thingies.

233
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 1: In a row?

234
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 2: Have you?

235
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 3: At some point? Sure?

236
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 8: So, you know that I haven't slept in an actual

237
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 8: bed since I was eight. Well, there was that one

238
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 8: time but basically every night since I've been sleeping on

239
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,359
Speaker 8: the floor on eggshells.

240
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 3: Sleeping on eggshells.

241
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I thought that one would get a note.

242
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 3: Well, and what have your partners felt about that?

243
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 8: Partners? Well, the few women I've dated, Yeah, they thought

244
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 8: it was weird. Yeah, and they're not wrong kind of

245
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 8: is not?

246
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 3: All cultures sleep in beds, and before colonization even more so.

247
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 8: Okay, well maybe it's not that I sleep on the floor.

248
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 8: It's why do you feel you're.

249
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 3: Ready to talk about?

250
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 2: Why?

251
00:16:58,560 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 3: Okay?

252
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 8: I mean sure, yes, yes, yeah, that's why we're here,

253
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 8: isn't it? Hey, but doctor patient confidentiality, it's in full effect, right.

254
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 3: Yes, everything we discussed in these sessions is confidential and

255
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 3: protected by law.

256
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,439
Speaker 8: So unless I pose the threat to myself or others,

257
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:21,640
Speaker 8: nothing I tell you leaves this room.

258
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 3: Right again, this is a safe space, and we'll see

259
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 3: what do you mean by that?

260
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 8: I'm gonna stand.

261
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 3: You might if I stand, if you'd be more comfortable.

262
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:39,160
Speaker 8: Sure, Uh so, I just want something to be clear

263
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 8: first and foremost. Okay, So the night I was abducted,

264
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 8: it wasn't some hallucination invented by my psyche to protect

265
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:53,479
Speaker 8: my fragile child mind. I was taken and I was

266
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,400
Speaker 8: held by the kukui.

267
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 3: David, it's the truth. I want to work through this

268
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 3: with you, but maybe may I have your permission to

269
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,880
Speaker 3: refer to the kukui as your abductor instead?

270
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:16,360
Speaker 8: Well, that's is what it was. So I knock yourself out.

271
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:21,359
Speaker 3: Thank you. Do you remember having any conversations with your abductor?

272
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:27,679
Speaker 8: Oh? Yeah, I remember. I remember every damn day we

273
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 8: had one, and that one conversation is actually how I escaped.

274
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 8: You escaped to figure a speech it.

275
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 3: Let me go, what did you and your abductor talk

276
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 3: about my writing? What about your writing?

277
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 1: Okay?

278
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 8: So I I told him that I would spread the myth,

279
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 8: the lore of and by doing this it could take

280
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 8: more children, hundreds, more thousands, if only it would spare

281
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 8: my life.

282
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 3: Josh the ring camera, Josh, what where are you? Josh? Hey?

318
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:14,879
Speaker 8: about the window.

319
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 3: I don't find that at all amusing, David.

320
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 8: Uh okay, no, then I really am sorry. I'm just

321
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 8: I'm I'm getting into character.

322
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,439
Speaker 3: Character. What do you mean character?

323
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 8: Tomorrow? I have another book signing horror author. People expect

00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 3: And do you enjoy playing that character? Yeah?

327
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 8: Oh it's fun. I mean sometimes it's easier pretending to

328
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 8: be someone else. You ever did that?

329
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:48,719
Speaker 3: No, I can't say that I have.

330
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 8: Yeah, my mom was like that. She had this public

331
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 8: facing persona and then there was the one that I

332
00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:01,439
Speaker 8: got to see, look at me. What about you, Monica?

333
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 8: Were your parents like that?

334
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 3: Well? My parents were very religious all the time.

335
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 8: Mom and dad or.

336
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 3: You know, this is our third session and you've yet

337
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 3: to talk about your father.

338
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 8: Oh okay, so you caught that. Huh mm hmm. Okay,

339
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 8: let's see. He he was in and out of our lives,

340
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 8: never around long enough for any you know, real connection.

341
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 3: And how is your relationship with him? Now. I mean,

342
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 3: I'm sorry I should ask is he.

343
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 8: No that last I heard cancer got him, couldn't beat

344
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 8: him a second time.

345
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 3: I'm sorry for your loss. I know all too well

346
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 3: how difficult that journey can.

347
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 8: Be to you, and I guess I'm sorry for your

348
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 8: loss too.

349
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 3: Thank you.

350
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 8: You know you don't actually have to have read my

351
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 8: book to know about the kukui. Your parents ever threaten

352
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 8: you with a visit from the old boogeyman? No, no,

353
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 8: but they believe in the supernatural.

354
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:07,920
Speaker 3: What do you ask?

355
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 1: Wow?

356
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 8: I mean, come on, it's part of our culture. It's

357
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 8: infused into our collective perception of the world. I mean,

358
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 8: some of these stories have been passed down for who

359
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 8: knows how many generations.

360
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 3: Well, that's the thing about having your own family. You

361
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,680
Speaker 3: get to decide what and what not to pass down.

362
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 8: Well, not always so, I just mean sometimes outside influences. Yeah, Well,

363
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:45,359
Speaker 8: they find their way inside.

364
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 3: Patient is also testing boundaries. Disclosures come after these moments

365
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 3: of he wants a reaction out of me, then subsequently

366
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 3: reveals something personal almost Havelovi in it. And that's to

367
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:06,360
Speaker 3: say nothing of his trauma delusion. The connection to this

368
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:19,959
Speaker 3: kakooy is obsessive to the point of, oh, get it together.

369
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 11: Hello, Hello, Josh, kids, Hello, is somebody there?

370
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 3: Hello?

371
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 12: And so if you don't behave.

372
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 13: They who get you?

373
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 3: Actually? Kind of freaking what are you doing?

374
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,399
Speaker 12: Maybe you scared me?

375
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 13: Honey?

376
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 3: What is that?

377
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: What is?

378
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 3: What does it read it to?

379
00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 13: The kids?

380
00:25:55,640 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 3: Have you lost your mind? What's going on? Give me this?

381
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 2: Hey?

382
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Josh, Hey, what's going on? Wanaka?

Speaker 3: He was going to get them signed by your author.

388
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 3: We chatted, the kids were excited, and he gave me

Speaker 3: a copy.

390
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:26,960

00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 8: a bed in my dorm and it came for me right.

478
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 8: You see, I never intended to actually honor our deal,

479
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 8: so it decided to kill me.

480
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 3: Oh come on, yeah, tick lipsy, what are you doing?

481
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 3: Come on?

482
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 8: I don't wear these eternal necks because I want to.

483
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 3: Are those fucking claw marks.

484
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 8: There was nothing else I could do, so I made

485
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 8: another pledge to spread the myth.

486
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 3: The lore.

487
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 8: But it told me that it wasn't enough. It demanded more.

488
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 8: It demanded las angres misakra.

489
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 3: You said you didn't have kids, but you never wanted them.

490
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 8: Well this is why. Look, I know you're not my

491
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 8: therapist anymore. But after I wrote the first book, for

492
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 8: the first time in my life, I felt happy. I mean,

493
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 8: fame and fortune suit me. I mean, who'd have thought.

494
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 8: But I'll be twenty eight soon, and the cuckoo will

495
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 8: come back to kill me if I don't honor the deal.

496
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 8: What I was ready to give up, and then I

497
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 8: learned I might have a half sister who had children. Now, okay,

498
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 8: so you see the stipulation wasn't that it had to

499
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 8: be my kids, but the blood of my kid?

500
