<v Speaker 1>Bridgewater is a production of I Heart Radio three D

0:00:03.120 --> 0:00:06.120
<v Speaker 1>audio and Grim and Mild from Aaron Mackey. For a

0:00:06.160 --> 0:00:24.480
<v Speaker 1>full exposure listen with headphones. Listener discretion advised, a Athanan baby,

0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:28.040
<v Speaker 1>where are you? Ethan? Hey, we're going to find him. An.

0:00:28.920 --> 0:00:31.880
<v Speaker 1>I know, you know, I think about all the all

0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:33.960
<v Speaker 1>the people that have gone missing here that you have found.

0:00:34.720 --> 0:00:37.879
<v Speaker 1>I didn't find everyone I know, but you are going

0:00:37.920 --> 0:00:45.440
<v Speaker 1>to find Nathan. I know it's gonna be okay. Yeah, yeah, no,

0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:48.920
<v Speaker 1>we are going to find him. I'm sure that, but

0:00:49.000 --> 0:01:00.120
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't mean that things are going to be okay.

0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:29.640
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's go over it again. They left for

0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:33.600
<v Speaker 1>the trip on Friday morning. Everything was fine Friday, Saturday night,

0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:36.959
<v Speaker 1>the trip. Woke up Sunday morning to find Ethan sleeping

0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:42.800
<v Speaker 1>bag empty and cold. This morning. What Sunday morning is?

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:46.119
<v Speaker 1>This morning? It's only been a few hours after nine hours. Yeah,

0:01:46.200 --> 0:01:48.840
<v Speaker 1>it's been nine hours. Yes, and thank you. I'm aware

0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:52.080
<v Speaker 1>that it is still Sunday. I'm a cop. Specificity is

0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:56.680
<v Speaker 1>important to me, retired cop. Excuse me, if you're retired,

0:01:56.720 --> 0:01:58.880
<v Speaker 1>if you can, if you care about specificity, I'm just

0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:03.279
<v Speaker 1>sorrying all right, Jesus Christ Bradshaw my grandson is missing.

0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:05.160
<v Speaker 1>You really think this is an appropriate time to give

0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:09.800
<v Speaker 1>me some lip. I'm not trying. You're right, I'm sorry,

0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:13.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm just I'm wound up. All right, it's been a

0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:20.600
<v Speaker 1>stressful thirty six hours. Hey, how's it been doing. Oh,

0:02:20.680 --> 0:02:23.280
<v Speaker 1>he's all right. I guess I'm glad I insisted on

0:02:23.360 --> 0:02:25.120
<v Speaker 1>him staying at my place last night. I don't think

0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:27.079
<v Speaker 1>waking up in an empty apartment in the middle of

0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:29.600
<v Speaker 1>the night it would have been good for him. Nightmares,

0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:34.720
<v Speaker 1>wake up screaming, Yeah, how do you know that the lights?

0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:37.880
<v Speaker 1>That's what they do. The same thing happened to Thomas,

0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:44.840
<v Speaker 1>even what my dad mm hmm. After he saw the

0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:47.320
<v Speaker 1>lights and heard the voice for the first time, he

0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:50.720
<v Speaker 1>didn't sleep a full night through for months. He'd wake

0:02:50.800 --> 0:02:54.880
<v Speaker 1>up screaming. I don't remember that. I don't remember him

0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 1>ever screaming in the middle of the night. Wait, and

0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:00.920
<v Speaker 1>when you say no, he was just really good at

0:03:00.960 --> 0:03:02.920
<v Speaker 1>hiding things from you, not because he was trying to

0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:06.200
<v Speaker 1>lie to you or anything. He just wanted to protected

0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:09.360
<v Speaker 1>from the darker things. And I have a feeling that

0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:13.640
<v Speaker 1>we have differing opinions about what the darker things were.

0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>I knew my dad. Okay, I knew that he worked

0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:20.680
<v Speaker 1>on murders and kidnappings because he told me, and he

0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:23.240
<v Speaker 1>told me all kinds of other scary stuff. But he

0:03:23.320 --> 0:03:26.600
<v Speaker 1>was my dad, and so that made it all a

0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:30.160
<v Speaker 1>lot less scary. He was protecting me, but he wasn't

0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:32.440
<v Speaker 1>protecting me from sasquatch or aliens or any of that

0:03:32.520 --> 0:03:35.960
<v Speaker 1>other nonsense that you seem to believe. Oh, come on,

0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:41.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe in aliens. That's where you draw the line. Okay,

0:03:41.640 --> 0:03:46.200
<v Speaker 1>what you believe in aliens? No, of course, Actually no,

0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:49.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe in alien abductions. But yes, you know,

0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:53.480
<v Speaker 1>in an infinite universe, statistically it makes sense that there

0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:57.560
<v Speaker 1>would be aliens. Okay, of course, yes, the statistics rely

0:03:57.640 --> 0:04:01.680
<v Speaker 1>on the precious numbers of it. All numbers are reliable,

0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:05.680
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, so as hundreds of years of history, Jeremy,

0:04:05.840 --> 0:04:10.800
<v Speaker 1>so are facts and bigfoot sightings are not history. Okay. Well,

0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.200
<v Speaker 1>don't you think it's a bit strange that people have

0:04:13.280 --> 0:04:16.640
<v Speaker 1>experienced the same things in the same spot for centuries?

0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:18.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, doesn't that tell you that there's something to

0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:21.600
<v Speaker 1>all of it? Or almost people just lying. I never

0:04:21.600 --> 0:04:23.600
<v Speaker 1>said that they were lying. I'm saying that humans are

0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:27.320
<v Speaker 1>susceptible to narrative. People haven't seen the same thing for centuries.

0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:31.120
<v Speaker 1>They've just experienced things that they can't explain and they

0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:34.960
<v Speaker 1>don't understand, and then they latch on to whatever the

0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:38.520
<v Speaker 1>most common story is that can fit around that. Great,

0:04:38.560 --> 0:04:40.920
<v Speaker 1>So you agree that there are events that are unexplainable.

0:04:41.080 --> 0:04:43.880
<v Speaker 1>Of course, there's plenty in the world that we don't

0:04:43.880 --> 0:04:48.520
<v Speaker 1>have answers for yet, but most sightings or supernatural encounters

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:51.880
<v Speaker 1>can be explained by people in the past just not

0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:59.040
<v Speaker 1>understanding science, or people being high or exhausted or mentally ill. Okay,

0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:01.800
<v Speaker 1>all right, So which one of those categories does vipp

0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:05.520
<v Speaker 1>And fit into? And Vippin was scared and he was

0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:09.839
<v Speaker 1>filled with adrenaline, and he's already inclined to believe in

0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:14.800
<v Speaker 1>fantastical things, and that's a mental illness, isn't it? Believing?

0:05:15.760 --> 0:05:18.640
<v Speaker 1>That is not what I said God, and every single

0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:23.680
<v Speaker 1>little thing. I'm not going to apologize. I'm not for

0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:27.600
<v Speaker 1>being rational and for treating my own discipline and my

0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:32.000
<v Speaker 1>own work with serious thought. Oh, serious thought. Of course,

0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:35.000
<v Speaker 1>this is all about serious thought. Of course it is

0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:40.560
<v Speaker 1>That is my entire profession. And no, it isn't excuse me.

0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Do you know why you're a folklore professor, Jeremy Oh?

0:05:44.279 --> 0:05:47.320
<v Speaker 1>I can't wait. Please tell me. Okay, because you're a coward.

0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:50.760
<v Speaker 1>You hide behind myths to learn everything about them so

0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:53.279
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to face them head on. That is

0:05:53.320 --> 0:05:57.400
<v Speaker 1>a ridiculous assertion. I don't Yeah, I don't think that

0:05:57.440 --> 0:06:00.479
<v Speaker 1>you can call someone a coward for not believing in

0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:03.360
<v Speaker 1>ghost stories. It doesn't work like that. Look at where

0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:06.159
<v Speaker 1>you are, No, please, look at where you are. Look

0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:08.480
<v Speaker 1>what's happened in the past two weeks. You can't deny

0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:11.520
<v Speaker 1>that something's going on here that your book can't explain.

0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:14.720
<v Speaker 1>I can deny that. In fact, I can offer several

0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:19.000
<v Speaker 1>fact based explanations. Sweetie, all the facts in the world

0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:22.080
<v Speaker 1>won't change the fact that you are terrified and you're

0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:24.800
<v Speaker 1>not How could you not be terrified right now? There's

0:06:24.839 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 1>a kid in the woods, your grandson who's missing. Don't

0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:31.960
<v Speaker 1>you dare throw that in my face. Look, my dearest

0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:35.039
<v Speaker 1>friend is lying on a couch with a bloody head,

0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:38.560
<v Speaker 1>and there's potentially dangerous cult in the area. I don't

0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:41.919
<v Speaker 1>need supernatural reasons to be stressed right now. There is

0:06:42.000 --> 0:06:45.719
<v Speaker 1>plenty piling up in the real world, And none of

0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:47.800
<v Speaker 1>those things are going to get better if you keep

0:06:47.800 --> 0:06:50.560
<v Speaker 1>your head buried in the sand. And you're not going

0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:52.880
<v Speaker 1>to find your grandson if you think that he's been

0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:56.760
<v Speaker 1>taken by Puckwages. Well, thinking that hasn't slowed me down

0:06:56.760 --> 0:07:00.560
<v Speaker 1>in the past. I am sure that hasn't helped. Well,

0:07:00.640 --> 0:07:06.200
<v Speaker 1>I found you. What the hell are you talking about? Nothing?

0:07:06.320 --> 0:07:10.120
<v Speaker 1>Just forget it? Just nothing, Athan Man? What do you

0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:14.080
<v Speaker 1>mean you found me? You found me? I came to you.

0:07:14.080 --> 0:07:18.920
<v Speaker 1>You went missing for a bit when you were a kid? Athan, What? No,

0:07:19.040 --> 0:07:22.240
<v Speaker 1>I didn't Yeah, okay, sure, I'm sure you remember the

0:07:22.280 --> 0:07:25.200
<v Speaker 1>seventies much better than I do, So I don't know.

0:07:25.280 --> 0:07:27.840
<v Speaker 1>I actually don't know what you were smoking in the seventies.

0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:31.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh please, what did I say about you giving me live?

0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Tell me what you're talking about? Anne, I didn't realize

0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:37.000
<v Speaker 1>that you didn't remember Okay. I always thought that you

0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:40.360
<v Speaker 1>became a folklore professor because of what happened. I didn't

0:07:40.760 --> 0:07:42.560
<v Speaker 1>you know. But when you you said that you didn't

0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:45.400
<v Speaker 1>remember me from when you were a kid. And if

0:07:45.400 --> 0:07:47.679
<v Speaker 1>you didn't remember me, then chances where you've forgotten everything

0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:52.120
<v Speaker 1>else too, forgotten what else? And it makes perfect sense right,

0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:55.440
<v Speaker 1>you're repressing the hell out of all of it. That's

0:07:55.480 --> 0:07:58.080
<v Speaker 1>why you're so obsessed, and you know you just don't

0:07:58.080 --> 0:08:03.040
<v Speaker 1>even realize it, rep saying what what happened to you? Oh?

0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:08.160
<v Speaker 1>What happened to me? Please tell you? Got lost in

0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:14.200
<v Speaker 1>the forest? This forest? Yeah right, I got lost once

0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:18.160
<v Speaker 1>for about two minutes, but my dad found me almost immediately. No, no,

0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:20.000
<v Speaker 1>that was just the first time they tried to take you.

0:08:20.680 --> 0:08:24.000
<v Speaker 1>Excuse me, you got lost. You got genuinely lost for

0:08:24.040 --> 0:08:26.960
<v Speaker 1>a whole afternoon. Really, how did that happen? I wasn't

0:08:26.960 --> 0:08:29.880
<v Speaker 1>exactly taking myself on hiking trips. When I was five

0:08:29.960 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 1>years old. I was with my dad. You were four, actually,

0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:38.320
<v Speaker 1>and you were at my house. You were hanging out

0:08:38.320 --> 0:08:40.160
<v Speaker 1>in the backyard while Thomas and I went over some

0:08:40.200 --> 0:08:44.160
<v Speaker 1>case files, and something, something just lured you into the woods.

0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:46.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, why do you think your dad was so

0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:48.880
<v Speaker 1>adamant about figuring out what was in here? His son

0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:52.240
<v Speaker 1>was talking about floating nights and little gray faced men

0:08:52.400 --> 0:08:55.800
<v Speaker 1>reaching out their hands. I mean he was, he was terrified.

0:08:56.679 --> 0:09:00.839
<v Speaker 1>What are you talking about? Plug tookulately, That's that's what

0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:03.920
<v Speaker 1>we think. I guess they don't like hurting little kids,

0:09:03.920 --> 0:09:06.439
<v Speaker 1>because we found you seven hours later, happy as a clam,

0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:09.520
<v Speaker 1>playing with some sticks, and I told you a story

0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:13.040
<v Speaker 1>about a pub. Well no, I mean you didn't really

0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:14.560
<v Speaker 1>know what to call it. You said it was a

0:09:14.600 --> 0:09:17.120
<v Speaker 1>little man, that's all you said. But one of the

0:09:17.200 --> 0:09:19.200
<v Speaker 1>sticks you were playing with had been sharpened into a

0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:23.520
<v Speaker 1>sphere and not something a four year old could do. Wow,

0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:28.400
<v Speaker 1>well that sounds like irrefutable evidence. You had nightmares for

0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:33.000
<v Speaker 1>weeks and weeks something I got a hold on you

0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:37.640
<v Speaker 1>and it just wouldn't let go. I don't remember having Well,

0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:41.000
<v Speaker 1>I didn't have nightmares about that. Anyway. You know your

0:09:41.040 --> 0:09:44.080
<v Speaker 1>dad weren't missing a year later to the day, So

0:09:44.120 --> 0:09:49.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm guessing that's what your nightmares became about. Yeah they did.

0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:56.600
<v Speaker 1>Wait wait, Anne, my dad not sleeping through the night.

0:09:56.600 --> 0:09:59.319
<v Speaker 1>How did you know about that? How did you know

0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:07.439
<v Speaker 1>about nightmares? My nightmares? What you said that he didn't

0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:11.400
<v Speaker 1>sleep for months? Did he did he tell you that? Did?

0:10:11.480 --> 0:10:15.280
<v Speaker 1>Did he tell you about me? And how else would

0:10:15.280 --> 0:10:19.680
<v Speaker 1>I know? And it's getting dark, so we need to

0:10:19.720 --> 0:10:30.240
<v Speaker 1>keep moving, Athan and athenh. It's probably just someone else

0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:34.400
<v Speaker 1>from the search party. I don't know. Come on, come on,

0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:45.720
<v Speaker 1>fuck Jesus Hello, what are you doing? Hello? Someone there?

0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:51.240
<v Speaker 1>Can you? Can you please point your flashlight down? Jeremy

0:10:51.760 --> 0:11:10.560
<v Speaker 1>get back this episode of Bridgewater. It was made possible

0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:13.720
<v Speaker 1>by the Zebra. Sometimes the past won't stay buried and

0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:16.120
<v Speaker 1>it comes back to haunt you, like when you're searching

0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:18.760
<v Speaker 1>for car or home insurance and whether you're part of

0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:21.960
<v Speaker 1>a nineteen seventies style satanic cults or your credit is

0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:25.280

<v Speaker 1>here like this, and your girlfriend should have told you

0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:38.520
<v Speaker 1>that you're lucky that we didn't report your little meeting

0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:40.920
<v Speaker 1>the other night, and yet you did go out of

0:13:40.960 --> 0:13:44.880
<v Speaker 1>your way to acquire the police file on me. Batista

0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:47.840
<v Speaker 1>told you didn't she We don't keep secrets from each other,

0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:51.760
<v Speaker 1>and you don't keep secrets from your cult. It's not

0:13:51.960 --> 0:13:54.600
<v Speaker 1>a cult, you know. I have half a mind to

0:13:54.600 --> 0:14:00.240
<v Speaker 1>report Batista. No. Please, She's good at her job and

0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:03.880
<v Speaker 1>confidentiality is part of the job. So you don't have

0:14:04.160 --> 0:14:07.079
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of police files just sitting in your home. Man,

0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:09.880
<v Speaker 1>there's no privacy in this time. Not to mention, you

0:14:09.960 --> 0:14:13.360
<v Speaker 1>coerced her into giving you confidential information about Celeste. Don't

0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:15.800
<v Speaker 1>we have a more important task to focus on at

0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:19.160
<v Speaker 1>the moment. You don't seem particularly bothered by us looking

0:14:19.160 --> 0:14:23.560
<v Speaker 1>into your past. Why should I be? Did you find something? No,

0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:27.720
<v Speaker 1>it seems that other than cult activity in the seventies,

0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:31.560
<v Speaker 1>which was never proven to be criminal. Right, so your

0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:36.440
<v Speaker 1>your record in Freetown is squeaky clean, as it should be.

0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:39.200
<v Speaker 1>I have nothing to hide from those who seek the truth.

0:14:39.760 --> 0:14:43.000
<v Speaker 1>That's no more true today than it was forty years ago.

0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:45.880
<v Speaker 1>You were hiding something back then, and you're hiding something.

0:14:45.960 --> 0:14:49.680
<v Speaker 1>Now what secret do you think I have? You and

0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:54.080
<v Speaker 1>your friends, the other children? I told you I found

0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:58.360

<v Speaker 1>But you all did some thing. Thomas new. He knew

0:15:02.640 --> 0:15:05.280
<v Speaker 1>that you were messing with things that you could never

0:15:05.440 --> 0:15:09.680
<v Speaker 1>hope to understand. And you think you can understand them.

<v Speaker 1>You think you're the one is going to selve the

0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:15.720
<v Speaker 1>ancient secrets of this world, of the world's beyond. I'm

0:15:15.760 --> 0:15:18.880
<v Speaker 1>going to solve something, So you just better hope it

0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:25.720

<v Speaker 1>damn it. Man. And are you okay? No? I am

0:16:46.080 --> 0:16:48.800
<v Speaker 1>not okay. Those things got away again. What are you

<v Speaker 1>you have no you have no idea, you have no idea.

0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:05.440
<v Speaker 1>What's going on here? We're all stressed, and it's dark

0:17:05.480 --> 0:17:07.240
<v Speaker 1>and it's windy in this place is full of shadows,

0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:09.600
<v Speaker 1>and I'm seeing it too. I get it in for

0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:13.119
<v Speaker 1>fuck's sake, Bradshaw, open your goddamn head for once. What

0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:16.119
<v Speaker 1>do you think just happened? What did you just see?

0:17:16.400 --> 0:17:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I've I don't know. I saw lights and there was

0:17:20.240 --> 0:17:25.080
<v Speaker 1>a voice, and it's all power of suggestion. I don't

0:17:25.080 --> 0:17:27.480
<v Speaker 1>know all I've done for the past two days, and

0:17:27.520 --> 0:17:29.879
<v Speaker 1>talk about lights and voices in the woods. Of course,

0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:32.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm seeing that, right. And then you experience it yourself,

0:17:32.760 --> 0:17:35.400
<v Speaker 1>and you think it's just it's just because you've heard

0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:37.920
<v Speaker 1>a story. Okay, do you think that that that your

0:17:37.960 --> 0:17:40.879
<v Speaker 1>mind is that malleable? I don't know, and I just

0:17:40.880 --> 0:17:44.600
<v Speaker 1>think I am stressed and exhausted and scared for Ethan

0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:47.199
<v Speaker 1>and oh no, no, no, you you don't get to

0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:49.879
<v Speaker 1>be scared for Ethan. I am scared for Ethan. I

0:17:49.920 --> 0:17:52.840
<v Speaker 1>am scared for him and Olivia and my daughter and me.

0:17:52.960 --> 0:17:57.240
<v Speaker 1>But but you know who I'm scared for the most. You.

0:17:57.240 --> 0:18:00.520
<v Speaker 1>Your stubbornness is gonna get you gone, just like it

0:18:00.600 --> 0:18:02.879
<v Speaker 1>did with your father if he hadn't gone out alone

0:18:02.960 --> 0:18:06.480
<v Speaker 1>that night, if he if he had just woken me up.

0:18:08.359 --> 0:18:11.040
<v Speaker 1>I am telling you, what is happening again? That is

0:18:11.080 --> 0:18:18.080
<v Speaker 1>what the message said? What what message? And Thomas's Thomas's message.

0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:21.760
<v Speaker 1>He said that it's happening again. And something is broken here, Bradshaw,

0:18:22.400 --> 0:18:26.520
<v Speaker 1>something it's just not right in this forestingmore. Yeah, I

0:18:26.640 --> 0:18:31.720
<v Speaker 1>know it's full of coltson frank Ster's God knows what

0:18:32.640 --> 0:18:34.919
<v Speaker 1>you really think that that's what it was? Some teenagers

0:18:34.920 --> 0:18:39.040
<v Speaker 1>were flashlights? What else could it be? Reasonably realistically? What

0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:42.560
<v Speaker 1>could it be? Have you ever seen anything move that fast.

0:18:43.000 --> 0:18:45.960
<v Speaker 1>Do you think a flashlight can move on its own?

0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:50.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know a drone? What about the pattern? Okay?

0:18:50.680 --> 0:18:53.639
<v Speaker 1>They were in the exact triangle that Vipen described. Can

0:18:53.680 --> 0:18:57.359
<v Speaker 1>you explain that? I don't know? I can't. Everyone keeps

0:18:57.400 --> 0:19:00.920
<v Speaker 1>asking me to explain everything. I don't know. And this

0:19:01.000 --> 0:19:03.600
<v Speaker 1>isn't getting us anywhere. We just need to keep looking.

0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Don't you think I know that? Well? We were prepared, Bradshaw,

0:19:08.480 --> 0:19:11.399
<v Speaker 1>just just like you said. I was half out of

0:19:11.400 --> 0:19:13.520
<v Speaker 1>my mind with worry when I said that there is

0:19:13.560 --> 0:19:16.960
<v Speaker 1>no monstrous dog waiting to attack us. Okay, no, that's

0:19:17.000 --> 0:19:19.840
<v Speaker 1>not what I'm talking about. Then what what are we

0:19:19.920 --> 0:19:25.000
<v Speaker 1>unprepared for? For something to open and then never close?

0:19:26.840 --> 0:19:34.480
<v Speaker 1>What does that mean? You? Watch? What the fund is that? Look?

0:19:34.560 --> 0:19:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Someone's over there. There's someone over there on the shore. Hey, Hey,

0:19:40.119 --> 0:19:48.680
