00:00I don't know what I could have said to change the course of things.
00:09You said that you had had, from your earliest time, a sense of being kept for something.
00:16A sense of being kept for something.
00:19You called it rare and strange, prodigious and terrible, and you felt it in your bones.
00:25I'd always felt it in my bones.
00:27A foreboding.
00:30I'm remembering where we met.
00:32You don't remember where we met.
00:34I do. The house at Weatherhead.
00:36That isn't where we met, John. That's where we meet again.
00:40You know me from somewhere, but you can't quite place me.
00:47I remember what you told me. I mean, who could forget it?
00:51You called it your beast. Your beast in the jungle.
00:55Because it was silent, and it was waiting.
01:02Once in a while you meet with me.

01:12Are you afraid of it, John?
01:15Perhaps this thing that's coming is a good thing.
01:21I understand.
01:23I will watch for it.
01:25I can watch with you from far away.
01:28I can watch with you right here.
01:32Why did I choose you to tell it to?
01:35You didn't choose me, John.
01:39I'm the same.
01:41I can watch with you. I believe you.
01:49I am never alone again.
