00:01:03amen
00:01:06did you feel it did you feel it that's the blessing
00:01:16that's the blessing
00:01:46in October of 1967 Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin were riding horses when they spotted a bipedal
00:01:54figure on the opposite side of a river in northern California
00:01:57Patterson recorded a strip of film that became so world-renowned anyone can identify the grainy
00:02:05sepia-tone footage of Bigfoot turning to glance at the humans filming across the divide
00:02:10or consider the so-called surgeon's photograph in it a silhouetted creature's neck emerges out of the
00:02:21shimmering rippling waters of Loch Ness did Patterson film a real Bigfoot or did he film Bob Gimlin in a
00:02:29hairy costume did the London gynecologist snap a picture of a prehistoric beast in a Scottish lake
00:02:35or did he take a blurry picture of a toy submarine
00:02:42half his entry later why aren't we capturing endless footage of the Loch Ness monster
00:02:48or Bigfoot
00:02:51have we entered an age where people look at images and are incapable of seeing the monsters within
00:02:59are all monsters a hoax or is it possible the monsters that haunt the 21st century hide in plain sight
00:03:09now consider Larkin Texas and the question of how it's possible an entire town was preyed upon for years
00:03:25in broad daylight and yet even when presented with proof some survivors of the horrors of Larkin did not believe
00:03:32what happened to them
00:03:33and at the center of all of it was my family
00:03:39my parents my brother even myself
00:03:44show the residents of Larkin the Patterson Gimlin film and they can point to Bigfoot
00:03:49show them the surgeon's photograph and they can identify Nessie with no hesitation
00:03:56but show them video taken before during and after the Larkin incidents
00:04:01and they cannot see the monster in front of their faces
00:04:04but just because some can't see the monster
00:04:08doesn't mean he was never there
00:04:15you need to send help to Larkin church right away

00:07:22Lucas, why are you showing me this?
00:07:45Lucas, what is this video?
00:07:53Lucas, what is this?
00:07:56Why am I watching this?
00:08:00I'm going to hang up.
00:08:04Hey, I'm sorry that I hung up, but I just...
00:08:14I don't know why you're doing these videos again.
00:08:23Look, I'll get over it.
00:08:24I just need you to call me or text me back and tell me that you're okay.
00:08:31I'm worried.
00:08:34Okay, bye.
00:08:35Call me back.
00:08:36Bye.
00:08:37Okay.
00:08:38I don't, I don't like this at all.
00:08:47I don't like being on this side.
00:08:51My brother Lucas is a complicated person.
00:08:54He shot to viral fame due to creepy videos he released that went on to be known as the
00:08:58Man Finds Tape series.
00:09:00So my parents have this creepy old barn on their property.
00:09:15Whenever it storms, I have to come back here and flip the breaker.
00:09:33And I did, but this time, out of the corner of my eye, I see this.
00:09:54That is me.
00:10:03Why is this here?
00:10:04What is this doing up here?
00:10:06Am I supposed to find this?
00:10:08Was this put there for me or is this hidden intentionally?
00:10:14Did they think I was never going to find it?
00:10:17Why is there tape with my name on it?
00:10:28My parents, they got a bunch of old camera stuff and I think they might have something
00:10:35that I can watch this on.
00:10:37I don't know if I even want to watch this.
00:10:47So to me, I don't know if I even want to watch this.
00:10:54There are all kinds of people.
00:10:56I'm not sure if you need my health or anything to watch this video or anything.
00:10:58I'm not sure if you want to watch this video before I take it.
00:11:04I'm out of my life and I can watch this video.
00:11:06It is my hope for you.
00:11:08How can you listen up?
00:11:09How could you listen to me or are you?
00:13:13That's me, you know, that kid, that kid is me in that house that is this house.
00:13:24But I have no, no fucking memory of any of this shit ever happening, okay?
00:13:28I, I, I, and who the fuck is filming that?
00:13:31Because it certainly isn't me.
00:13:32While some assumed Lucas hired an actor or some friend's kid to help him go viral, I knew the truth.
00:13:40The boy in the video was Lucas, and it was filmed over a decade earlier when we were children.
00:13:45Okay, so I heard those noises again last night, um, so I'm out here investigating.
00:13:58Over the course of several months, the Man Finds tape series became an unlikely social media sensation, gaining over a million followers, all obsessed with what was happening to Lucas.
00:14:11So some of y'all still think that this is just some elaborate prank.
00:14:21Trust me, I am not that smart.
00:14:23These tapes are capable of recording for about 63 minutes.
00:14:28Now the intruder footage is like a minute, maybe two minutes long.
00:14:31The bookends of the tape, that is the hour after it stops, the minute before it starts, has all been erased.
00:14:38I'm gonna make a copy, I'm gonna send this to an expert, see what else I can find out.
00:14:42As Lucas' story evolved, he drew more followers and more skeptics, which led him to search for proof, debate his own fans, and spiral deeper into darkness.
00:14:51You don't look scared, that's just a doctor.
00:14:53You think a doctor is gonna film him walking through your house at night without your parents present, asleep in bed.
00:15:00I really wish there were more tapes.
00:15:01That would actually shed so much light on this, because then I could figure out exactly, like, there's a pattern, if there's more people in this, is it just me or my own, or is this guy doing it to everyone?
00:15:10Who is this? What's the motive?
00:15:12While this engaged his audience, I'd seen this obsessive behavior before when we were growing up.
00:15:17Have you ever considered that you're a little, uh, effin' bee?
00:15:20Yeah, actually, way more than you'd really think.
00:15:23I kind of just lay awake in bed, and I'm like, oh my god, am I an effin' bee?
00:15:28Do you have a sister? Uh, is she hot?
00:15:31Is your address...
00:15:35So, uh, you guys probably know that I haven't...
00:16:01I've really been sleeping a whole lot since I first watched the tape.
00:16:09I just can't.
00:16:11It's like my body won't let me.
00:16:14But I finally fell asleep the other night.
00:16:18Do you know what happened to me?
00:16:21I dreamed about the man in the tape.
00:16:25And I'm looking right at him.
00:16:27And all I can see is a man in a suit with this black, endless spiral where his face should be.
00:16:36And then I hear...
00:16:57So he also sent a note.
00:17:02There is nothing wrong with this tape.
00:17:05Stop looking.
00:17:07Do not contact me again.
00:17:11After that, Lucas didn't post any updates for well over a month.
00:17:15No videos, no tweets, no Reddit posts.
00:17:18He dropped off the radar.
00:17:20His silence made his fans look elsewhere to keep the mystery alive.
00:17:23Okay, so the cloud coverage is actually really good right now.
00:17:30We're going to have you...
00:17:32I'm going to have you actually start at the top of the stairs.
00:17:34And then as soon as you come down...
00:17:36Yo, is it...
00:17:37Are you her?
00:17:37Are you...
00:17:38Oh, shit.
00:17:39It is Lucas Page's sister.
00:17:40Do you know who she is?
00:17:42She grew up in a fucking haunted house.
00:17:44And now her brother is missing.
00:17:47My brother is actually a pathological liar.
00:17:49My house was not haunted.
00:17:50Please stop.
00:17:51I was pulled into Lucas' story, becoming an unintentional character for his fans to dissect.
00:18:02People harassed me at work and online, demanding to know more about our family,
00:18:07if there were more tapes, and if Lucas was even still alive.
00:18:10Hey, Lynn.
00:18:19Look, I know you hate being the center of attention or whatever, but...
00:18:23People are actually, like, into this whole thing.
00:18:26They get it.
00:18:27And I've got actual fans now, and this is starting to turn into a big deal.
00:18:32I know you're not doing what you want to be doing right now, but you don't have to mess
00:18:39this up for me.
00:18:41So just keep your socials on private.
00:18:42That way, you don't have to deal with it.
00:18:44It's all going to be fine, okay?
00:18:45You'll see.
00:18:47And no.
00:18:49Mom and Dad wouldn't care.
00:18:50It's important that you stay close to family, to a community.
00:19:00Sure, there's this great big world out there, and it's fun to learn and to explore.
00:19:07But you can't forget where you came from, who you came from, and where you belong.
00:19:13You can't forget your roots.
00:19:18Job said, a mother will forget him.
00:19:23The worm feeds sweetly until he is no longer remembered, and wickedness will be broken like
00:19:29a tree.
00:19:33Think about those words.
00:19:36What does that mean to you?
00:19:42You see this?
00:19:43Right here.
00:19:46Okay.
00:19:47Now.
00:19:49Watch this.
00:19:56Right there.
00:19:58Do you see that?
00:20:01That's a pen.
00:20:04That's the same pen.
00:20:08This March, the return of Man Finds tape, with Lucas drawing connections to Reverend
00:20:13Endicott Carr's The Salvation Hour.
00:20:17Well, howdy.
00:20:18I'm the Reverend Endicott Carr, and you're watching The Salvation Hour.
00:20:23God has an important message for you and your life.
00:20:26They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
00:20:31We live in a world that moves constantly, all around us.
00:20:35But we don't have to be of the world.
00:20:38And what does Jesus mean when he says that?
00:20:41Lucas found a villain to keep his followers engaged, baiting his audience to find hidden
00:20:45messages and episodes of the Larkin Public Access show.
00:20:48Now, when he returns, we may not know the time or place, but I'll return right here next week
00:20:55on The Salvation Hour.
00:20:58However, Lucas conveniently withheld the fact that the only reason he had this trove of
00:21:03footage was because our parents were the ones paid to film the show.
00:21:07How will they know how to reach me if I don't say the number?
00:21:14I can throw it on the screen.
00:21:16You can do that?
00:21:17Lose me magic.
00:21:19It's the easy part.
00:21:20What's the hard part?
00:21:22I'm going to get them to watch the TV show without falling asleep.
00:21:26The word of God isn't boring.
00:21:29No.
00:21:30I know.
00:21:31I was just joking.
00:21:32So, yeah, you just worry about your message, right?
00:21:40And let us worry about how it gets out there and we're doing this commercial.
00:21:47Are you ready for a take?
00:21:49Yeah, folks, I don't think so.
00:21:51What's wrong?
00:21:58For years, our parents ran page video.
00:22:02A modestly successful business that made them the go-to couple for everything,
00:22:07from shooting local commercials to installing security cameras.
00:22:14When they decided to start a family, they moved away from the city,
00:22:18bought an old farm in Larkin, and soon after had us.
00:22:21And they passed their love for all things video onto my brother and I.
00:22:34I'm Lucas Page.
00:22:36And I'm Lynn Page.
00:22:36And this is the Page Family News.
00:22:38We have breaking news.
00:22:40Dad caught farting.
00:22:41They led a simple, beautiful life until a mysterious illness appeared first in our mother and then our father.
00:22:59Within six months, they were both gone.
00:23:01Shortly after their deaths, I moved away, leaving Lucas behind in Larkin.
00:23:09Man Finds Tape launched Lucas from a complete nobody living in the middle of nowhere
00:23:19to somebody fielding multiple offers from producers to adapt his story into a feature film.
00:23:26Larkin, Texas might be a small town, but even small towns have the internet.
00:23:29And as soon as Endicott was made aware of what Lucas was up to,
00:23:35he put a stop to it the old-fashioned way.
00:23:43Hello, Lucas.
00:23:44I'm not sure where you found that tape,
00:23:46but you need to leave me and my show out of it.
00:23:49I thought your parents raised you better than that.
00:23:51God rest their souls.
00:23:53I just...
00:23:54I need you to set the record right, son.
00:23:58and tell all your followers, or whatever you call them,
00:24:02that you've made all of this up.
00:24:05And if you can't do that,
00:24:07and you can't do that right away,
00:24:09I will have to get my lawyers involved.
00:24:13Be well, Lucas.
00:24:22I have something I have to say.
00:24:23I would like to retract statements I made in videos
00:24:28uploaded between December 18, 2022 and January 8, 2023.
00:24:34I claimed Reverend Endicott Carr entered my bedroom
00:24:38and secretly filmed me as a child.
00:24:41This is not true.
00:24:42I have no proof of this.
00:24:44I've never sent any tapes to any experts,
00:24:46and any statements to that effect
00:24:49were made for entertainment purposes
00:24:51and without malicious intent to lie
00:24:53or defame the character of Endicott Carr.
00:24:56The error was the unfortunate result
00:24:58of my attempt to conflate
00:25:00real but completely unrelated pieces of footage
00:25:03and in doing so,
00:25:05drawing a conclusion that defamed an innocent man.
00:25:07I completely retract the false information
00:25:11and apologize for my mistake.
00:25:13I'm sorry,
00:25:14and I hope you will forgive me
00:25:16for this lapse in judgment.
00:25:17All right.
00:25:28I have not heard from you,
00:25:30so I am on my way home.
00:25:34Um, I'm about five hours away,
00:25:37but I...
00:25:39Well, we'll just talk when I get there,
00:25:41but I just leave the door unlocked.
00:25:44I don't know if my key still works.
00:25:47Okay. Bye.
00:25:53I once knew a sad, sad husband.
00:25:58He had a very bad day.
00:26:04The worst thing in the world
00:26:07has happened to him today.
00:26:10I lost two...
00:26:10I'm singing.
00:26:11Do you mind?
00:26:12No, go ahead.
00:26:13Two hours.
00:26:15Just...
00:26:16You know when it's Daylight Savings Day time
00:26:18and you feel horrible
00:26:20because you lose one hour?
00:26:21Well, I lost two.
00:26:22You lost two hours.
00:26:23Plus the three hours of sleep I didn't get.
00:26:25You want me to break some dishes or something?
00:26:34I want you to learn how to transcode.
00:26:37I don't know.
00:26:43Okay, so I've got new footage to show you,
00:26:46but I'm gonna need your help
00:26:47because whenever I watch it,
00:26:49because whenever I watch it,
00:26:50it does something to me.
00:26:52I went to film Indicat myself,
00:26:55but now I can't remember what happened.
00:26:59I think I've determined the sections of this video
00:27:02that's giving me blackouts,
00:27:03and I'm gonna keep watching it
00:27:04until I can understand it.
00:27:06Okay.
00:27:12Neighbors, I'll tell you this.
00:27:14As the devil works,
00:27:16so shall the one true God.
00:27:19As the demons are working,
00:27:21so are the angels.
00:27:25And friends, I believe,
00:27:26as in the time of the Bible,
00:27:28that there will be a visitation
00:27:31of man by the angels.
00:27:34God speaks through us
00:27:36in ways that we cannot understand.
00:27:41And my friends,
00:27:42we know our to be.
00:27:45For as the shepherd calls,
00:27:48the flesh shall hear his voice.
00:27:50I say again, hallelujah,
00:27:51for when the shepherd calls,
00:27:52and the flesh shall hear his voice.
00:28:17Neighbors, I'll tell you this.
00:28:19As the devil works,
00:28:20so shall the one true God.
00:28:23Amen.
00:28:24Say again, hallelujah,
00:28:25for when the shepherd calls.
00:28:29Say again, hallelujah,
00:28:31for when the shepherd calls.
00:28:32Say again, hallelujah,
00:28:34for when the shepherd calls.
00:28:36Call.
00:28:39Hey.
00:28:46Lucas, I'm here.
00:28:50Hey, Lucas!
00:29:05Wake up.
00:29:06Wake up.
00:29:07Look at me.
00:29:07Look at me.
00:29:08Show me think of unfair.
00:29:10Even...
00:29:11It's hard to think about
00:29:14what might have happened to Lucas
00:29:15if I hadn't shown up when I did.
00:29:17He'd spent months at a low point
00:29:19after Man Finds Tape imploded
00:29:20and his 15 minutes were up.
00:29:24He didn't remember
00:29:26showing me the van footage.
00:29:27He didn't even remember
00:29:29asking me to come to Larkin.
00:29:31Slowly,
00:29:32and with my repeated reminders,
00:29:34he started to remember
00:29:35what was happening,
00:29:36and then he was right back to filming.
00:29:42This house.
00:29:44Yo, what are you hitting on
00:29:45our fuckin' house?
00:29:46This is never
00:29:46supposed to be
00:29:48our house.
00:29:50Mom and Dad
00:29:51said
00:29:52whenever they leave
00:29:55that we just need
00:29:56to...
00:29:57Is this all
00:29:59some part of
00:30:00this creepy pasta thing
00:30:02that you're doing?
00:30:02Because I swear to God,
00:30:03if it is,
00:30:04I'm gonna get in my car.
00:30:06I swear to Mom and Dad's grace.
00:30:08Lucas,
00:30:08you have gotta stop doing that.
00:30:10They are not some
00:30:10get-out-of-jail-free card
00:30:11for you.
00:30:12Most of it was bullshit,
00:30:14okay?
00:30:14I admitted that.
00:30:16I owned up to that.
00:30:17But the first tape,
00:30:19where it all started,
00:30:20that shit's real.
00:30:20I'm serious.
00:30:21I'm not.
00:30:22No, come on, dude.
00:30:23Please, listen.
00:30:25Listen, stop, stop.
00:30:26I'm sorry.
00:30:26I'm sorry.
00:30:27I'm sorry.
00:30:28Please, Lynn.
00:30:30Fuck's sake, I...
00:30:32I'm so lucky, 3D.
00:30:33I'm sorry.
00:30:35For everything.
00:30:36Literally everything, okay?
00:30:38I know that people
00:30:41do not trust me right now.
00:30:42I have lost that right.
00:30:45Especially with you.
00:30:47And I admit that.
00:30:48I accept that.
00:30:50But something is happening here
00:30:52in Larkin,
00:30:53and I need your help.
00:30:55I cannot do this without you.
00:30:57Look, we both know
00:30:58I was never
00:30:59gonna be the one
00:31:00to live up to anyone's expectations.
00:31:03Alright?
00:31:04That's you.
00:31:05I try.
00:31:08Okay?
00:31:10I try.
00:31:11But I can't.
00:31:13I can't.
00:31:14I'm like a fuck-up.
00:31:16I am a major fuck-up.
00:31:18And I've always been one,
00:31:19and I always will be.
00:31:21You fucking know that.
00:31:22And honestly,
00:31:23I think it's just something
00:31:25in my brain
00:31:26that just doesn't really click.
00:31:27No.
00:31:28And I don't even feel like
00:31:29I ever should be around anymore.
00:31:30I don't even feel like
00:31:31I'm sorry.
00:31:32I'm sorry.
00:31:34I'm sorry.
00:31:47We later sent our footage
00:31:48to a real forensic digital analyst,
00:31:51the kind that determines
00:31:52if a piece of media
00:31:53is at risk of triggering people
00:31:54with photosensitive epilepsy.
00:31:56The results came back normal.
00:32:01On a purely visual level,
00:32:03there was nothing remarkable
00:32:04about the video
00:32:05to explain what happened to Lucas
00:32:07when he recorded himself
00:32:08watching the sermon.
00:32:11So we consulted an audiologist.
00:32:13There was a frequency found,
00:32:15but it was so low
00:32:16it would have been inaudible
00:32:17to human ears.
00:32:18The audiologist stated that
00:32:20even if the frequency were audible,
00:32:22they didn't believe
00:32:23it was medically possible
00:32:24for an image or sound
00:32:25to induce a catatonic state
00:32:27or temporary amnesia.
00:32:30So this is another tape
00:32:31that you shot
00:32:32that you can't...
00:32:34because...
00:32:35That's correct.
00:32:37I just need you
00:32:38to tell him what you see.
00:32:40I say again,
00:32:41hallelujah,
00:32:42for when the shepherd called!
00:32:47Okay, so they're all
00:32:48bowing just like you did.
00:32:51No.
00:32:52Wait, this guy's moving.
00:32:53Wait, what?
00:32:53What guy?
00:32:55What does he look like?
00:32:56I mean, I've never seen this guy,
00:32:59but he's got a long coat
00:33:00and he's carrying a weird bag.
00:33:03Well, like a...
00:33:04like a brown...
00:33:05like a brown satchel?
00:33:06Like this right here?
00:33:09I mean, kind of,
00:33:10but this looks old
00:33:12and it's like more rounded
00:33:13at the top.
00:33:13Yeah, okay, okay.
00:33:14So Wendy has seen this guy.
00:33:16This guy,
00:33:16he comes into Boone's Barbecue.
00:33:18He just sits there.
00:33:20He doesn't order anything.
00:33:21He doesn't eat.
00:33:21Just...
00:33:23Okay, okay.
00:33:24You go to Wendy.
00:33:24You talk to her.
00:33:25See what you can find out.
00:33:27I'm gonna go see
00:33:27if Boone knows anything
00:33:28about this guy.
00:33:29Okay, well,
00:33:30do you want to come win?
00:33:31Nope.
00:33:31Hi.
00:33:32Go to Boone's.
00:33:33Here, take this.
00:33:34I have others.
00:33:35Go to Boone's.
00:33:36Go to Boone's.
00:34:04As it turns out, Lucas was not the only unreliable narrator in this story.
00:34:17Yes, you can actually look at me in one of the lines, if it feels comfortable.
00:34:35Can you tell us a little bit about yourself?
00:34:42Like, before all this? I was Reverend Endicott's surrogate.
00:34:48I guess it was never really, like, official, but I was kind of Lucas' girlfriend.
00:34:55I mean, I lived in Larkin. There's not, like, a whole lot for you to, like, be, you know?
00:35:03You know what it's like.
00:35:05I am Winston Boone. I'm on the best damn barbecue joint in Larkin, Texas.
00:35:09It's also the only barbecue joint in Larkin, Texas.
00:35:13Uh, Joelle Cantor. Born and raised Larkin, Texas.
00:35:17Uh, Proud Mama Three.
00:35:19My name is Abigail Webber.
00:35:21And I'm Vanette Webber.
00:35:23We're the only twins in Larkin, Texas.
00:35:28Can you tell me where you were with Charles Dainford, then?
00:35:31Well, Charlie, uh, yeah, that was a real shame what happened to him.
00:35:36Sheriff Hoyt weren't such a wet fart of a cop, he'd have caught the guy by now.
00:35:40And I'll tell you, I'm allowed to say that because he's one of my oldest friends.
00:35:43He's also one of my best customers, so maybe I shouldn't call him a wet fart.
00:35:48No, he's a wet fart. He knows it.
00:35:50We were in church, must have been.
00:35:54I know now that I was there, um, because you've told me.
00:36:00And you've showed me. I mean, you've tried to show me.
00:36:02I can't really, like, see the whole thing.
00:36:05But, yeah, I was there.
00:36:07I'm actually gonna show you some footage.
00:36:10If you can just watch and tell me what you see.
00:36:15This is Main Street.
00:36:18And, uh, from the angle of the camera, it looks like, uh...
00:36:24I see me and my sister walking down the street.
00:36:29Judging by our hats, it was a Sunday.
00:36:32Yeah, this is me.
00:36:34Looks like I'm walking with our youngest.
00:36:36But that stroller...
00:36:38Well, that must've...
00:36:40Yeah, there's me.
00:36:42I'm...
00:36:43I think I'm, like, carrying groceries or something.
00:36:45This is from in front of, uh...
00:36:48In front of Daryl's Gro...
00:36:50Yeah.
00:37:12Did that answer your question?
00:37:26I'm sorry, what were we, uh, talking about?
00:37:29Wait, I don't know if you stand up.
00:37:31Them Weber sisters, they sure got some big-ass hats.
00:37:34No.
00:37:35No.
00:37:36You and Daryl sent anything with anyone else?
00:37:37Yeah.
00:37:38Charles Danforth dies, and none of us do a damn thing about it.
00:37:45The Danforth footage came from a security camera our parents were hired to install at Daryl's Groceries over a decade ago.
00:37:52Daryl thought he was having problems with the camera, so he asked Lucas to take a look.
00:37:57But the problem wasn't with the footage.
00:37:59It was with the people watching it.
00:38:01And the Danforth footage was not even the first evidence that something was wrong in Larkin.
00:38:06Okay.
00:38:12Okay.
00:38:13Do it.
00:38:14No.
00:38:15No.
00:38:16No, do it.
00:38:17Do it.
00:38:18You can't record me doing it.
00:38:19It's too good to not preserve forever.
00:38:20People are gonna think I'm, like, making fun of...
00:38:21No.
00:38:22Nobody's gonna think you're making fun of me.
00:38:23No one cares.
00:38:24Just do it.
00:38:25Don't post this.
00:38:26Okay, I won't.
00:38:27I promise.
00:38:28Okay, hold on.
00:38:29Get in character.
00:38:31If you're overly...
00:38:32Stop.
00:38:33You can't.
00:38:34If you're over the age of 65, you might be noticing some changes to your body.
00:38:41Hold on.
00:38:45Sir, this is a serious matter.
00:38:47Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:38:48I'm trying to inform the public.
00:38:49Absolutely.
00:38:50If you're over the age of 65, you may have what I have.
00:38:54If you're seeing changes in your body, you may have elderly, type 2, late onset puberty.
00:39:01Oh, boy.
00:39:02Now, if you're noticing these changes, then I hope that you will join me, Wilford Brimley, Wilford Brimley, in learning about the changes to your body.
00:39:13Okay, I've had enough of this.
00:39:14You know, I think Wilford Brimley's gonna be very upset when he sees this.
00:39:18If you...
00:39:19He's not coming from here, Wilford Brimley.
00:39:21He's not coming from here.
00:39:23I've held on you now.
00:39:24Ha, ha, ha.
00:39:37Oh my god, hey.
00:39:48Hey, are you okay?
00:39:49Hmm?
00:39:50What the hell?
00:39:51What happened?
00:39:53Oh my god.
00:39:55Hey.
00:39:56You're bleeding.
00:39:57I am?
00:39:58Yeah, you're bleeding.
00:39:58Are you okay?
00:39:59Oh my god, I...
00:40:00Are you okay?
00:40:00I don't know.
00:40:01Hey, hey, hey.
00:40:01Where are we?
00:40:02What happened?
00:40:03Hey, hold on.
00:40:04Stop.
00:40:05Stop.
00:40:05Let me just...
00:40:06Here.
00:40:06Let me...
00:40:06Oh my god.
00:40:14It was so scary, like, having no control.
00:40:17I just didn't...
00:40:22We're all a culmination of our choices, I think.
00:40:25And, you know, the good ones and the bad ones.
00:40:29And I have made some bad ones.
00:40:33But those were mine.
00:40:36They were my choices.
00:40:38Oh, he took that.
00:40:39He took all of our choices.
00:40:41I think it's a fucking miracle that more of us didn't end up like Charlie Danforth.
00:40:45So how's that going?
00:40:54It was fine.
00:40:56Aside from feeling like the actual Titanic, the whole surrogacy thing was really not a bad gig.
00:41:02Especially compared to the hundreds of other gigs that I've had in Larkin.
00:41:06And, you know, not all of us got the luxury of being able to leave, so...
00:41:11Yeah.
00:41:13Mmm.
00:41:14Speaking of plans changing, I have to show you this.
00:41:17I found this while I was unpacking.
00:41:19It is too good.
00:41:21Lucas, you are also going to love this.
00:41:24Look at that.
00:41:25Can you believe that?
00:41:27Oh, my God.
00:41:28I know.
00:41:30I think that was science class.
00:41:33Oh, my gosh.
00:41:34And look at the MASH game.
00:41:36Oh, my God.
00:41:37You are going to be an artist, drive a motorcycle, have 12 kids.
00:41:41Way too many.
00:41:42Make 200 a year.
00:41:43You are going to be married to our past.
00:41:46And you are going to live in Austin.
00:41:47Beautiful.
00:41:48Well, at least I got one of those right.
00:41:51You're married to our past.
00:41:52Shut up.
00:41:53Uh, can I show you something?
00:41:55I also wanted to know, is...
00:41:56Has Lucas been weird lately?
00:42:01Weird?
00:42:01Lucas?
00:42:02The most normal human boy on the planet?
00:42:05Like, is he partying a lot?
00:42:08Not really.
00:42:09I mean, since I've slowed down, he kind of has to.
00:42:13At least that I know of.
00:42:15Okay.
00:42:16Uh, if you could just watch this and tell me if you notice anything.
00:42:21You're overly aged.
00:42:22Stop, stop, stop, stop.
00:42:23You can't.
00:42:25You know, I'm hoping that Brent Lacy is very upset.
00:42:27And when he sees this...
00:42:28He's not.
00:42:30He's not.
00:42:34Wendy?
00:42:37Wendy?
00:42:37Wendy?
00:42:43Wendy?
00:42:44Wendy?
00:42:44Are you okay?
00:42:50Wendy?
00:42:50Wendy?
00:42:51Wendy?
00:42:52Wendy?
00:42:59Have you noticed a weird guy around town?
00:43:01He's got a long coat and he's carrying this bag that's, like, beat up?
00:43:05Oh, yeah, like some old ass, like, satchel?
00:43:08Yes.
00:43:08Like a weird 1920s doctor?
00:43:10Yes.
00:43:10We saw him, um, where did we, oh, we saw him at Boone's.
00:43:15It was so weird.
00:43:16He was just, like, sitting there, like, staring at Boone.
00:43:18Didn't order anything.
00:43:19Why?
00:43:19Who is he?
00:43:20Well, we think he has something to do with the...
00:43:22Hey.
00:43:23Hey.
00:43:24Am I interrupting anything?
00:43:25Thanks.
00:43:26How are you feeling?
00:43:27Oh, better today.
00:43:28Thanks.
00:43:29Is that Miss Lynn Page?
00:43:30I see.
00:43:31The one and only.
00:43:32Hi, Mr. Carr.
00:43:33It's been a while.
00:43:34Heard you became a filmmaker.
00:43:35Are you making a movie?
00:43:36Hope it's better than your brother's last one.
00:43:38I don't know what I'm doing, to be honest.
00:43:49They know we only have so much attention that can be paid to the world around us.
00:43:57They are banking on that attention being spread thin.
00:44:01They are banking on it!
00:44:05They want your heart, and your eyes, and your mind, focused on whatever loud and shiny
00:44:12and lascivious thing keeps your attention away from what really matters.
00:44:18Richard?
00:44:19They are the hand that distracts you during the magic trick.
00:44:28What can you tell me about Mr. Hancock?
00:44:31I know he ordered his brisket fatty, so it couldn't be all bad, right?
00:44:34Reverend Carr was a great man.
00:44:39Absolute shame what happened.
00:44:41Absolute shame.
00:44:43He's the only thing that kept faith alive in this town.
00:44:46The only thing.
00:44:48If you are righteous, what do you give to him?
00:44:59What does he receive from you?
00:45:02I want each and every one of you to ask yourself that question.
00:45:07What do I give to him?
00:45:09Do I give all of myself?
00:45:11Or is there something more I could give?
00:45:17Everybody in Larkin had a relationship with Endicott, like it or not.
00:45:20After the accident, after we like almost died, this was also pretty soon after my mom passed,
00:45:26and when she was sick I drove her to church every Sunday.
00:45:32Yeah, the Sunday after the accident, it wasn't like a come to Jesus or anything, but I just thought the routine might be nice, so I got in my car.
00:45:47It was like muscle memory.
00:45:48I just drove there, and it's like he knew.
00:45:53That's when he pulled me aside and asked me to be his surrogate.
00:46:00I wish I could say that I thought about it really hard, that I, you know, did my research or prayed.
00:46:09I don't know, but I didn't.
00:46:13He knew that I would say yes.
00:46:16He knew that I needed it.
00:46:21He got really spooked.
00:46:23He was paranoid, like he thought something bad was going to happen to me.
00:46:26I don't know, like die in childbirth for a kid that wasn't even mine.
00:46:30He did really care about me, and I appreciate that.
00:46:39Our God comes and will not be silent.
00:46:44A fire devours before him, and around him a tempest rages.
00:46:48He summons the heavens above and the earth that he may judge his people.
00:46:52Gather to me this consecrated people who made a covenant with me by sacrifice,
00:46:58and the heavens proclaim his righteousness, for he is a God of justice.
00:47:09So that's how I give you my testimony today.
00:47:11You know about his vista and his truth to God.
00:47:12Oh, so I hope he could catchett.
00:47:13I don't know about your leader, and my friend.
00:47:14I will follow him as an assistant boy.
00:47:15So good.
00:47:16Now we'relying here as a friend, for the home division.
00:47:17Well, we figure out what he is.
00:47:19I will Kazakhstan, and he will scholarships to this minister.
00:47:25There's no slight rages in here.

00:50:53Look.
00:50:54I came in here and he's just fucking rooting around with a knife in there and I take this
00:50:58fucking sack and I just put it over his head and the guy fucking drops like that.
00:51:01That.
00:51:02Lucas, what the fuck is that?
00:51:03I don't fucking know, man.
00:51:06But all this is fucking real.
00:51:08Why don't you just call the cops?
00:51:09We need to call somebody.
00:51:10What the fuck am I going to tell them?
00:51:12I mean, tell them there's a hole in his head.
00:51:13I mean, tell them that there's a hole in his head.
00:51:14I mean, tell them there's a hole in his head.
00:51:15Is this a hole in his head?
00:51:16Stop.
00:51:17Stop.
00:51:18Let me go.
00:51:35No fucking way, dear.
00:51:38You're a fucking murderer.
00:51:41You see this?
00:51:43You see this?
00:51:45I got everything.
00:51:46And we're so fucked.
00:51:50I know your tapes quite well.
00:51:57You're drawing his attention.
00:51:59Who are you talking about?
00:52:03Not again.
00:52:06What's happening to them?
00:52:08He's feeding.
00:52:10Let me out.
00:52:12No, I'm calling the cops.
00:52:13Let me go.
00:52:16No one will answer you.
00:52:22No one in this town can help you.
00:52:26I can.
00:52:31Oh my god.
00:52:32Oh my god.
00:52:36You better fucking help.
00:52:37No one in this town can help you.
00:52:38No one in this town can help you.
00:52:39No one in this town can help you.
00:52:40No one in this town can help you.

00:52:57What the fuck is that?
00:53:09You okay?
00:53:30Moon.
00:53:38Where is he going?
00:53:43He'll be done soon.
00:53:45I drifted away with no idea this ever happened.
00:53:49Are those in them too?
00:53:51Well, they live in Larket, don't they?
00:53:53Well, can you fix them?
00:54:08I wouldn't say I trusted him.
00:54:15I would say that I believed him.
00:54:19I would say that I believed that he knew what he was doing and what he was talking about.
00:54:25Is that why you let him go?
00:54:28Well, Boone would have died.
00:54:29He would have bled to death.
00:54:31And it would have been my fault.
00:54:33Because I had no idea what the fuck was going on, but he knew.
00:54:38He knew how to do things that weren't possible.
00:54:45Is this a problem?
00:54:52The new cameras is the reason I'm here in the first place.
00:54:56He said...
00:55:11Okay, can you at least tell us what you're doing?
00:55:14I'm finding the connection between him and the feeder.
00:55:17You keep saying feeder.
00:55:18What is the feeder?
00:55:21It's called the feeder because he's the one who's been feeding on every man, woman, and child in Larket.
00:55:29You've got hitchhikers inside of you.
00:55:34And when he gets thirsty, your hitchhiker is the straw he uses to drink you.
00:55:46So why aren't you helping us?
00:55:49I'm helping myself.
00:55:52So how are we supposed to get rid of the feeder?
00:55:56Well, the straws go both ways.
00:56:04Oh, what is that?
00:56:06Can you please not kill me?
00:56:16Oh, God.
00:56:19Fuck!
00:56:20Oh!
00:56:21Oh!
00:56:25Fuck!
00:56:26Oh, my God!
00:56:30Oh.
00:56:31Oh, my God.
00:56:35Wait, those are all?
00:56:51Yes.
00:56:52Fuck!
00:56:55Oh my god.
00:56:56What are you doing?
00:56:57What are you doing?
00:56:58Hey!
00:56:59You have to help him!
00:56:59Please, you have to save me for...
00:57:01What are you doing?
00:57:03Where are you?
00:57:07Is that not his child?
00:57:09No, no, it's Endicott Cars.
00:57:12I'm a surrogate.
00:57:13It's not...
00:57:13What the fuck?
00:57:20Fuck!
00:57:21A car!
00:57:23What?
00:57:24Talk to us!
00:57:25What?
00:57:25Your feeder is Endicott Cars.
00:57:30All this extra feeders will be great.
00:57:33Fuck!
00:57:34How did you feel when it made you happen?
00:57:39So that was the first time that I really felt him kind of like...
00:57:43Like inside me, like controlling me.
00:57:47But I swear it was not me doing that.
00:57:51Wendy!
00:57:51What the fuck is that?
00:57:55What the fuck is that?
00:57:59Wendy!
00:58:00Wendy!
00:58:01No!
00:58:02Come back!
00:58:03Wendy!
00:58:04Don't!
00:58:05Fuck!
00:58:06Hey!
00:58:07Wendy!
00:58:08No!
00:58:09Come back!
00:58:10Wendy!
00:58:11Don't!
00:58:12Fuck!
00:58:13Hey!
00:58:14Fuck!
00:58:15Fuck!
00:58:16Hey!
00:58:17Hey!
00:58:19Ah!
00:58:20Fuck!
00:58:21��...
00:58:22No, Lucas!
00:58:29Well, all I really will remember is, like, I think I was just kind of on autopilot.
00:58:38I just, like, went home and, you know, ended up back in my apartment.
00:58:42I don't remember making the choice.
00:58:48Wendy? No! Come back! Wendy, don't!
00:58:55Hey!
00:59:00What the fuck?
00:59:18We were only able to theorize why things happened after we discovered the depths of Endicott's paranoia and transgressions.
00:59:33Prior to Wendy's surrogacy, Endicott's feedings must have taken place in the middle of the night, allowing him to prey undetected for decades.
00:59:52When Endicott decided he wanted an heir to his legacy, he began draining Larkin's life force into the bodies of himself and his child in Wendy's womb.
01:00:07As for the stranger, we initially thought he was here to save us.
01:00:22But now know his plan all along was to infect himself with Endicott's power and use it in ways even the Reverend never dared.
01:00:29You have no idea what it's like to not only know that he's inside your head, but also, like, I fucking hate him.
01:00:57He knew that he could just do whatever he wanted, because that's what he'd been doing our entire lives, and he preyed on me.
01:01:09ENDCOTT
01:01:14ENDCOTT
01:01:25ENDCOTT
01:01:33ENDCOTT
01:01:35Despite that decree that all fealty and all worship should be paid to Darius, Daniel defied
01:01:49that decree.
01:01:54No, I just remember waking up tied to that chair.
01:02:24Don't scream.
01:02:47Don't scream.
01:02:52I am going to hurt you, because it has to be real, but if you support me, most of the
01:03:06people will get hurt.
01:03:11I'm going to hurt me or you're going to hurt the baby.
01:03:19Trust me.
01:03:21Don't do this for your own good.
01:03:42What's that?
01:03:46He kept praying.
01:03:48His fate.
01:03:49He's coming.
01:03:50He's coming.
01:03:51He's coming.
01:03:52He's coming.
01:03:53He's coming.
01:03:54He's coming.
01:03:55He's coming.
01:03:56He's coming.
01:03:57He's coming.
01:03:58He's coming.
01:03:59He's coming.
01:04:00He's coming.
01:04:01He's coming.
01:04:02He's coming.
01:04:03He's coming.
01:04:04He's coming.
01:04:05He's coming.
01:04:06He's coming.
01:04:07He's coming.
01:04:08He's coming.
01:04:09He's coming.
01:04:10He's coming.
01:04:11He's coming.
01:04:13He's coming.
01:04:14He's coming.
01:04:15He's coming.
01:04:16He's coming.
01:04:17He's coming.
01:04:18He's coming.
01:04:19He's coming.
01:04:20He's coming.
01:04:21He's coming.
01:04:22He's coming.
01:04:23He's coming.
01:04:24I'll give you anything you want.
01:04:26You want money?
01:04:28I can pay you.
01:04:29Just...
01:04:30She hasn't done anything to hurt you.
01:04:34She hasn't done anything to hurt you now.
01:04:36And then I haven't done anything to hurt you.
01:04:37Now why?
01:04:39You don't know what you're here to do.
01:04:50You know.
01:04:54You've known someone like me who's coming.
01:04:58Right there, stop.
01:04:59Okay.
01:04:59Is this too far?
01:05:00Right.
01:05:15She's not here.
01:05:17Okay.
01:05:18Okay.
01:05:18Okay.
01:05:24I'll let you have anything you want to do so I'm going to hurt her, okay?
01:05:32I'll give you the town.
01:05:34I'll give you the whole town.
01:05:36Oh, thank you.
01:05:37I want a lot more in the town.
01:05:41What?
01:05:43What?
01:05:44It's the child, right?
01:05:46That's all I've ever played.
01:05:49It's the child.
01:05:50I'll let you have everything else.
01:06:04You'll let me.
01:06:07I don't need you.
01:06:09I'll let you in.
01:06:12I don't need you.
01:06:25Get away!
01:06:25I don't need you to curse.
01:06:28I don't need you.
01:06:29I don't need you to curse.
01:06:30I don't need you.
01:06:32I don't need you.
01:06:33I don't know.
01:07:03I don't know.
01:07:33I don't know.
01:07:34I don't know.
01:07:35I don't know.
01:07:36I don't know.
01:07:37I don't know.
01:07:38I don't know.
01:07:39I'm sorry.
01:07:40I don't know.
01:07:41I don't know.
01:07:42I'm sorry.
01:07:43I don't know.
01:07:44I don't know.
01:07:46I don't know.
01:07:47I don't know.
01:07:48I don't know.
01:07:49I don't know.
01:07:50I don't know.
01:07:51I don't know.
01:07:52I don't know.
01:07:53I'm sorry.
01:07:54I don't know.
01:07:55I'm sorry.
01:07:56I don't know.
01:07:57I don't know.
01:07:58I don't know.
01:07:59I don't know.
01:08:00I don't know.
01:08:01I don't know.
01:08:02I don't know.
01:08:03I don't know.
01:08:04I don't know.
01:08:05I don't know.
01:08:06I don't know.
01:08:07I don't know.
01:08:08I don't know.
01:08:09Stop!
01:08:29Stop!
01:08:31Hey!
01:08:33Stop!
01:08:39Where is this?
01:08:46What? What? What? What? What the fuck?
01:08:59Hey! Hey, stop!
01:09:09Oh, my God.
01:09:39You need to send help to Larkin Church right away.
01:09:46Is anyone hurt?
01:09:48Yeah, this guy, he just stabbed my friend,
01:09:51and then he attacked right away.
01:09:54You need to send help to Larkin Church right away.
01:09:58Is anyone hurt?
01:10:00Yeah, this guy, he just stabbed my friend,
01:10:03and then he attacked right away.
01:10:06He just stabbed my friend, and then he attacked Reverend Carr,
01:10:10and he just, he went into the wall, and he just, he disappeared.
01:10:15Ma'am, is the assailant still with you?
01:10:17No, he went, he went into the wall.
01:10:22What's your name?
01:10:24My name is Lynn Page.
01:10:27I am outside of the Larkin Church.
01:10:30And the person who was stabbed, are they conscious?
01:10:32Yes, they are.
01:10:33And the Reverend?
01:10:35He ran away.
01:10:36Are you still in danger?
01:10:38I don't know.
01:10:39He might come back.
01:10:40I don't, I don't know where he went.
01:10:42A unit is on its way.
01:10:43Can you describe the suspect?
01:10:45He's six foot tall.
01:10:48He's white, and he's wearing a long jacket.
01:10:51Is there anyone else with you officers need to know about?
01:10:54It's, it's just me, Wendy, and then my brother, Lucas.
01:10:59Oh, fuck.
01:11:00Everyone else is gone.
01:11:01Oh, fuck.
01:11:02Oh, fuck.
01:11:04I saw an angel standing in the sun, cried in a loud voice to all the birds flying in mid-air.
01:11:14Come, gather together for the great supper of God, so that you have made it the flesh of kings, generals, and the mighty, of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all people free and slaves.
01:11:29Great and small.
01:11:30Then I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies gathered together to wage war against the rider on the horse and his army.
01:11:44But the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who performed the signs of its behalf, and with these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshipped its image.
01:12:09The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur.
01:12:38Lucas took me to the hospital, but the doctors didn't even really see me, because, like, there was nothing, like, the wounds had healed, you know?
01:12:48Like, there was nothing really clearly wrong.
01:12:51Um, you'd still think they'd want to know more information, I mean.
01:12:55We gave Sheriff Hoyt a copy of the footage from that night.
01:13:00The stranger slitting Wendy's throat.
01:13:02The stranger crippling Endicott.
01:13:04Endicott bursting into flames.
01:13:07Everything.
01:13:08We never heard back.
01:13:09He either couldn't see the footage, or is in denial.
01:13:14He wouldn't be the only one.
01:13:20Despite sending it to a cryptologist, we still haven't been able to translate the book.
01:13:24And that left us with the sack.
01:13:28We'd seen him use it.
01:13:30We knew what it could do.
01:13:33No, I'm not putting this on my head.
01:13:39Are you ready?
01:13:40Just do it.
01:13:54I mean, it's dark, but I'm still awake.
01:13:57Whatever the stranger did to give it power seems to have faded along with him.
01:14:08And without being able to read the stranger's book, it was useless in our hands.
01:14:14We still have no idea what happened to the stranger, where he went, how he traveled the way he did, or what he's capable of.
01:14:22It's as if he didn't mind leaving behind several locks, knowing full well we didn't have the keys.
01:14:29We never saw the stranger again.
01:14:33When something like this happens to you, like, you don't trust reality anymore.
01:14:39So, in reality, I knew he was dead.
01:14:43I knew he was gone.
01:14:44But in the moment, like, you know, I just freaked out.
01:14:54And I don't know if it was like a hallucination or whatever, but at one point, it's like he was there.
01:15:03And of course, like, after the fact, it's like, what the fuck was it all for?
01:15:11I thought I was helping somebody.
01:15:14And then everything happened.
01:15:17And then he's dead.
01:15:18And I'm stuck with this.
01:15:20Like, I thought the kid was going to be like some kind of fucking monster.
01:15:24Like, I got, like, one good look at the baby.
01:15:31It looked like a pretty perfect little kid.
01:15:40No.
01:15:42No.
01:15:44A baby's a baby.
01:15:47It doesn't need to be burdened with...
01:15:51Whatever shit his father was doing.
01:15:55Doesn't need that legacy.
01:15:56It deserves a fresh start.
01:16:07After Endicott died, all the physical signs of the infection in Larkin's residence faded away.
01:16:12way. Despite that, some still do not see what's right in front of their faces.
01:16:19Winston Boone here, you know, from the, from the movie that you did. Look, look, I'm calling
01:16:27because that, that interview thing we did, I, I can't stop, like, I don't know, like thinking
01:16:37about it. Did you, did you show me something? Because I, I just, I don't know, I just, look,
01:16:50I guess, I think I'd rather just kind of stay out of the rest of whatever it is you're doing,
01:16:57if that's all right. Okay, hope, hope, hope, hope you're good. Okay.
01:17:07I hate you. I don't like being in.
01:17:30We're going to need to get these tapes.
01:17:37Okay, Lynn, you see this? Okay.
01:17:51Right.
01:17:52What?
01:17:52What?
01:17:52What?
01:17:52What's that?
01:17:58I can't help but think of a detail about
01:18:07H.H. Holmes, one of America's first serial killers. He was a businessman who had a custom furnace
01:18:13built in the basement of an apartment building he owned. It's been reported that after the
01:18:18residents went to sleep, Holmes would descend into the basement, ignite the furnace, and sit
01:18:24in front of it, feeling its all-consuming heat as the bodies of his victims were incinerated.
01:18:29People knew about the furnace. Someone had to build it for him. Someone had to show him
01:18:35how to use it.
01:18:39Our parents installed Endicott's cameras. But like the contractors that built Holmes' furnace,
01:18:45they didn't know the system's true purpose.
01:18:52They didn't know the system's true purpose.
01:18:54Endicott not only wanted to remember every moment of preying on his victims,
01:18:59but he was brazen enough to think no one would ever find his archives.
01:19:08And without the Reverend's vanity, I'm not sure we ever would have been able to piece this
01:19:14together.
01:19:27Lucas and I watched our parents prematurely decline over our teenage years. Their minds,
01:19:33memories, and bodies failing them as an undiagnosable disease took their lives weeks apart.
01:19:39There's nothing more devastating than losing the people you love and not understanding
01:19:43why. But now I believe their proximity to Endicott is what costs them their lives.
01:19:50I can't prove why he did it, but I know it was him. I'm not ashamed to say I'm happy
01:19:58he lived long enough to know my family was there when he lost everything.
01:20:08My brother once told a story about finding a videotape in our barn.
01:20:13The truth was he'd found it in an envelope in our parents' desk.
01:20:18I believe some part of them knew they were complicit in Endicott's plans.
01:20:22Our parents knew they had to get proof, but Endicott's control kept them from understanding
01:20:28the part they played in spreading his influence.
01:20:32I think we all have an instinct for what's right and what's wrong in the world.
01:20:36Because his gut instinct led him to expose the first tape, just like his gut instinct
01:20:41led him to believe Endicott was involved.
01:20:45Where his gut instinct led him down was in believing he was the most important character
01:20:49in the story, that he was the only person Endicott had been targeting.
01:20:56He wasn't.
01:20:58Do you regret bringing Endicott's story in St. Lincoln?
01:21:10I do.
01:21:12A lie doesn't stop being a lie just because it leads to the truth.
01:21:16And I really don't want to be remembered as a liar.
01:21:21Do you know what means we would figure today that we wouldn't have a good story to tell?
01:21:26You know, there are good people in Larkin.
01:21:29People would have figured it out eventually, you know, even if I hadn't done what I had done.
01:21:34I have to believe that the truth would have come out regardless.
01:21:39And people would have believed it.
01:21:59I needed Lucas after our parents died.
01:22:02And I resented him for falling down his own rabbit hole.
01:22:07If I hadn't answered Lucas, his story, our story, would have ended very differently.
01:22:14But that's the thing with family.
01:22:17You always risk giving them one last chance.
01:22:21You always risk hoping they're going to prove you wrong.
01:22:47But after uncovering the truth of what happened to my family, I'm still haunted by something.
01:23:09Why was I not affected?
01:23:13Is it because I left Larkin?
01:23:17Or are there parts of this story even I'm blind to?
01:23:23I might never know.
01:23:30Not all monsters are a hoax.
01:23:32They just don't look like Bob Gimlin in a hairy costume.
01:23:38Or a toy submarine photographed in black and white.
01:23:42The monsters of the 21st century feed in broad daylight.
01:23:48Hello.
01:23:49I'm the Reverend Endicott Carr spelled with two Ts and two Rs.
01:23:54And if you don't know me already, I hope to know some of you real well, real soon.
01:24:00If you let me in, of course.
01:24:01If you let me in, of course.
01:24:07Or there are one who's got a superType wè…¹ in my car blip.
01:24:11But I just wanna learn what.
01:24:13And I guess, uh, we are trying the culture as a head.
01:24:15Although there might cause there, you know, things like...
01:24:20That here's what dream of Gatti had dur effet.
01:24:21Yeah.
01:24:23What do you learn in the situation?
01:24:24Yeah.
