1
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 1: You were listening to Strawberry Spring, based on a short

2
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:20,440
Speaker 1: story by Stephen King. M I couldn't leave my eyes.

3
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:23,919
Speaker 1: I stood there staring at the two of them. The

4
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 1: currents were a mess. Mrs Curran's cheeks were swollen from crying.

5
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 1: Here you go, ask I have a tissue. I could

6
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 1: see the puffiness. The whites of her eyes, well what

7
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 1: was left of them, anyway, were bloodshot. She had crow's

8
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: feet around the corners of her face, nothing unexpected considering

9
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: how much time had passed. Even still, when I looked

10
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: at her, I could see the same woman that I

11
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 1: saw all those years ago in the New Sharon Home

12
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: for Boys. She was a mere image of her younger self.

13
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: In a weird way. She hadn't changed a bit. She

14
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: would damage been shattered back then, a woman who would

15
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 1: never have her own children, but she had a glimmer

16
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 1: of hope when she was looking for a child to adopt.

17
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: Now there was no hope left. She wouldn't be the

18
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 1: woman who couldn't have babies. Instead, she would be the

19
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: mother who adopted and no longer had a daughter. Here

20
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: I have some water. Please say believe me when I

21
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 1: tell you we have the entire department on this thank you.

22
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: Mr Curran's voice cracked. He was trying to be the

23
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: strong one. He wasn't even close. He was all we had.

24
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: He was her only daughter. The irony was palpable here

25
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: I was standing right in front of them. In another life,

26
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: I would have been their son, a thirty year old

27
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: man with a child of his own on the way,

28
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: but instead their daughter, Marcia, the latest victim of spring

29
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: heel jack. It's hard to believe was one alternate decision.

30
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: They would have never needed to know the pain of

31
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: losing a daughter, and I would have had to know

32
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: the pain of being unwanted, of being left behind a

33
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: fence for myself in an orphanage. Do you really think?

34
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 1: Do you really think it's the same man from all

35
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:35,239
Speaker 1: those years ago? We do? But why? Why? Now? Why

36
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,679
Speaker 1: would he come back after all this time? Why are Marcia?

37
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 1: I don't understand. I wish I could say something to

38
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 1: make you feel better. We're all here last time, and

39
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,679
Speaker 1: we're going to do everything we can to help find

40
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: him and stop him. Please don't despair, Mr Mrs. Current

41
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: police work has come a long way in the past

42
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: few years. I have a file right here with the

43
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: full side report on the oiler disassociative behavior, obsessive compulsive disorder,

44
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: possible child to trauma, physical and psychological abuse. He's a

45
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: textbook serial killer. We will find him this time and

46
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: bring him to justice. Henry here is an expert on

47
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: spring Hill Jack. We have the latest forensics techniques, and

48
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: between the citywide man hunt and our determination, there's no

49
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: way he's going to get away. Isn't that right, Henry Um? Yes,

50
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: Chief Spencer is right. Please please don't despair. Don't despair.

51
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: I wonder if that's what I should have echoed to

52
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: the currents. Don't despair. They'll find her body. Don't despair.

53
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: She probably didn't feel a thing. Don't despair. There's plenty

54
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: more orphans to go around. Don't despair. Hi, everyone, I

55
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: don't know if you can hear me. I replaced the

56
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: transistor on my hands, so hopefully this pose well, here goes.

57
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: I have some news. President Kennedy says they'll be launching

58
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: a Saturn rocket before the end of the year. How

59
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: neat would that be in sports? For just a few

60
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: months away from the beginning of baseball season. Spring training

61
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: has already started, and some people are saying the Yankees

62
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: have what it takes to win the one World Series.

63
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: In other news, Henry Denton was left behind at a

64
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: new share in home for boys. It's looking like you'll

65
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 1: never get adopted. But why would anyone adopt him? He's

66
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: a teenager with lingering psychological issues from seeing his mother

67
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: and brother die right in front of his very eyes.

68
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: He sustained head injuries and his emotional scars run deep.

69
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:57,679
Speaker 1: Isn't that right, Henry? What hi, Henry? Are you doing? Okay? Um? Yeah, fine,

70
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: I guess don't despair. We'll find a home for you. Yet.

71
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: I hate to have to break the news to you.

72
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: What news. I don't know if you've heard. But the

73
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: Currents who you met last week, Yes, I remember them.

74
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 1: They decided that adopting a teenager right now might be

75
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: too much for them, and I figured, I hope you understand.

76
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: It's all about finding the right fit. But chin up,

77
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 1: there's always families looking to adopt. Like I said, we'll

78
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,279
Speaker 1: find a home for you, yet, just wait and see.

79
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: Don't despair. The Headmaster was a kind man. I'm pretty

80
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,719
Speaker 1: sure somewhere deep down inside he felt for all of

81
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 1: us boys. He tried his best to go room to

82
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 1: room instead of making an announcement over the p A system.

83
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 1: I think he figured it was a little more personal,

84
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: like some sort of surrogate father and Sun chat by

85
00:05:52,720 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: the fireplace. Isn't that right, Henry? I said, isn't that right, Henry? Yes,

86
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: of course, don't despair Mr and Mrs Current. For all

87
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 1: intents and purposes, the Currents were too total strangers. But

88
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 1: somehow I couldn't help thinking we were connected. Maybe we

89
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: were in more ways than one. What would my life

90
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 1: had been like had they adopted me? Fate was cruel.

91
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: Fifteen years later and here they were standing right in

92
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: front of me. Thank you. Yes, we appreciate all of

93
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: your help. Now I remember you. You haven't changed. Excuse me.

94
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: The Home for Boys Henry Henry Hartigan, Oh, I'm sorry.

95
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: My last name is Denton. I was coincidentally at the orphanage.

96
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: But you must have mistaken me with one of the

97
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:57,039
Speaker 1: other boys. No, I'm sure it's you. It's in your eyes.

98
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: Are you okay? Yeah? There must have been another Henry

99
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 1: at the boys phone. It was so long ago, I

100
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 1: can't remember either that, or they were so busy looking

101
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: for someone to adopt. They went somewhere else, whatever it was,

102
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: I feel bad for them. They have my sympathy. I

103
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: didn't have much sympathy for them. If I'm being honest

104
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: with myself, I'm not sure I felt any sympathy for

105
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: them at all. But that's when she Spencer interrupted. I

106
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: didn't want to bring this up with the currents here,

107
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 1: but we should go see Dancy. What do you mean

108
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: we haven't been a holding sale downstairs. He was picked

109
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: up right before they came in. Do you really think

110
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: he's spring heel jack? Let's go find out for ourselves.

111
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: Where are we going? Holding sales are in the BASEBA

112
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: and knew me well enough to tell with one glance.

113
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: Seeing the currents change my demeanor. Are you okay? Do

114
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,559
Speaker 1: you look like you've seen a ghost? I nodded her way.

115
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: I wanted to say something, but what I feel more

116
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: like the ghosts just saw me. Follow me. Dancy cell

117
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: is just a back Oh my god. We got to

118
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: Dancy's holding cell and what we saw was jarring. Time

119
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: had not been kind to John Dancy. His hair was long, scraggly,

120
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: and unkept. He was filthy, wearing a beat up and

121
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: blood stained army jackets streaked with dirt. His fingernails had

122
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 1: grime under them, and his teeth were stained yellow and chipped.

123
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: He stood there with a hunch that made him look

124
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 1: like an old man, not someone in their late twenties.

125
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: It was hard to wrap my head around who were

126
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: what I was seeing. I didn't know him well back

127
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 1: at school. Wasn't that long ago? What could have happened

128
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 1: in eight short years that could have transformed him into this?

129
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 1: Take a good look. He's our number one suspect, John,

130
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,839
Speaker 1: that's whatever it mean? Hurt you? Why would we do that?

131
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 1: And realized right away what I failed to see. The

132
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: blood on his jacket wasn't from a murdered victim. It

133
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,599
Speaker 1: was his. The cops had been the ship out of him.

134
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,559
Speaker 1: When he turned to the light, we saw his face.

135
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: His eyes were swollen, not like Mrs Curran's, though Dancy's

136
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 1: swelling was from the bare knuckles of New Sharon's finest.

137
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: He must have been in that cell for hours. They say,

138
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,559
Speaker 1: if you corner a wounded animal, the best way to

139
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: keep them from attackinginess to make eye contact. I didn't

140
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: think Dancy was going to attack anyone, not in the

141
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: shape he was in. Plus he was behind bars, but

142
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: none of that stopped an from making the effort. What

143
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 1: happened to you? I'll tell you what happened to him?

144
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 1: He refused to confess. How long has he been in here?

145
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 1: Not long? A few hours at most, Henny, can you

146
00:09:55,600 --> 00:10:01,319
Speaker 1: form me a cup of water? Here? You got there, thirsty?

147
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 1: What happens here? I'll tell you what happened to him.

148
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 1: We picked him up and he resisted arrest, and the

149
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 1: officers they did what they had to do in order

150
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 1: to bring him in. You beat the ship out of me,

151
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: You and your fucking pigs. You're lucky you still have

152
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: breath in your lungs after what you've done. Come closer.

153
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 1: I want to make sure you can hear me. This

154
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:42,199
Speaker 1: close enough, plenty, I'm gonna make sure you fry for

155
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 1: what you've done. You and Alma Laura, you're fucking crazy,

156
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: old man. I've been telling him for hours. I didn't

157
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 1: do anything. I didn't kill anyone. I mean I did,

158
00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:02,439
Speaker 1: but but what they were orders I had to I

159
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 1: had to kill. But it was Vietnam. They gave me orders.

160
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:11,079
Speaker 1: They were orders. I didn't have a choice. They may

161
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: be kill. It was hard to watch. I couldn't just

162
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 1: stand there and do nothing. I took Anne and the

163
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: Chief aside. This guy is not a killer. Look at him,

164
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: Chief Spencer, you're grasping at straws. This guy has damaged goods.

165
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 1: That's exactly my point. Come on, the ward did amend

166
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 1: if he was spring Hill Jack? Do you think he'd

167
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 1: be suffering like this over his time in Vietnam? Jack

168
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 1: loves what he does. He lives for it. He takes

169
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: pleasure in killing. We're looking at a man that's been

170
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: weduce drugs and alcohol in order to live with what

171
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: he's done, not what he wants to do. Chief Spencer

172
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 1: didn't like hearing what we had to say. Chief. I

173
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 1: know your history with this case is personal. We were

174
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: friends with Chelsea too, So I'm going to cut you

175
00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 1: some slack. You're gonna cut me some leg If you

176
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,319
Speaker 1: don't have a reason to hold Dancy, let him go.

177
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 1: If he's here tomorrow with just one new bruise, I'll

178
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 1: make sure you're on the front page of every paper

179
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 1: in New England as the poster boy for police brutality.

180
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: I hope I've made myself clear. Let me make myself clear.

181
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 1: I want to know where he was last night, and

182
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,559
Speaker 1: I want to know where Ama Lara is, and if

183
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: it turns out either one of them had anything to

184
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 1: do with this, then you'll have something to print. Let's go, Henry.

185
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 1: We'll be back first thing in the morning. If you

186
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 1: find Ama Lara, let us not JAF Spencer has lost it.

187
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 1: I know Dancy didn't kill anyone. Am Lara isn't going

188
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 1: to turn anything up either. Where your part, I'll walk

189
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 1: into your car. What are you gonna do? I'm going home.

190
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,839
Speaker 1: Rachel is alone. She's gonna have pay be any day now.

191
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 1: The last thing she needs is for me to be

192
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 1: out until all hours of the night, chasing the goats

193
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: of Christmas past. M Laura will turn up, but it

194
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,080
Speaker 1: won't matter. He's not going to be the guy. That's

195
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 1: to say. I'm sure you're right. Dancy is a mess.

196
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: He couldn't plant a murder scene like always thought. Tonight

197
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: let alone went eight years ago. When I look at him,

198
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: I don't think he could tell you what he had

199
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: for lunch. I'll do you one better. I don't think

200
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: he ate lunch. Come on, Skinna late, I cannot tell

201
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,320
Speaker 1: you how much I hate this fog. It hasn't been

202
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 1: this bad since since when since five women were murdered

203
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 1: since spring heeled Jack got away. Since I had a

204
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 1: migraine since the murders, Yeah, since then, I'll talk to

205
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: you in the morning. Drive carefully best. I watched the

206
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 1: red tail lights disappear into the fog. I got a

207
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,599
Speaker 1: chill up my spine. My visions started to blur. I

208
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 1: knew feeling like when an old friend comes to visitor,

209
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: except this one was uninvited. The pain was searing into

210
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 1: the back of my brain. My ears started to ring,

211
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: and I could feel the pressure building up through my

212
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 1: head like a tea kettle, except there's nowhere for the

213
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,679
Speaker 1: steam to go. My hands clenched in A rage of

214
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 1: pain started to wash over me. That's when I heard

215
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: my name, Mattery, Henry Datton. Is that you. I turned

216
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 1: and saw a shadow running out of the police station.

217
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: It was the outline of a man, but I wasn't

218
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: sure why he was running towards me. Your wife just called.

219
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 1: She needs you to come home right away. She's going

220
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 1: into labor um ship. I raced across the lot. Each

221
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 1: time my feet hit the pavement, the pain amplified. But

222
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: before I got to my car, I saw a shadow

223
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: under the street line on the opposite side of the

224
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 1: parking lot. It's starting to come closer. It's the shadow

225
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: of the man, the same shadow I saw at the porphanage,

226
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: the same shadow from school, the same shadow that's been

227
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: following me my entire life. In the dark. I can

228
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: barely see them. Where are they? They're there? Are I've

229
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: bent over to grab hive. That's when I heard the voice,

230
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: familiar and distant, all at the same time. Henry, is

231
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: that you? I recognize that, police, but it can't be.

232
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: It's impossible. Tonight of all nights, ghosts all coming back

233
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: to hunting first hand, then Chief Spencer, Mr Curran, Mrs Curran,

234
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 1: John Dancy, one ghost after another. Why now? Who is

235
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 1: that coming closer? My head hurts. I haven't had a

236
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: headache like this year's. The pain is unbearable, and not

237
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: since the last killings, not since the first time Spring

238
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 1: Heeled Jack showed up. My god, I would do I

239
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: didn't think to make the pain go away. It is you?

240
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: Who is it? Who's there? I can see him, but

241
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 1: I can't believe my eyes. I missed you, Henry, Dad,
