01:01Andy everything's gonna be okay you know when you say it I almost believe it
01:19when we sleep the subconscious mind takes over our dreams can reveal what's disturbing us in our
01:25waking hours and there are rare occasions in the state between sleep and consciousness
01:31one of the things that most trouble us can emerge
01:42Steven what are you doing
01:47happy anniversary
01:48that's the place that I loved at the art fair
01:51yeah I grabbed the designer's card
01:54I just ruined your surprise
01:56oh hey that's not the only thing I have up my sleeve
02:00no making us dinner tomorrow
02:02and for dessert
02:05I thought we'd have these
02:13Kyle what are you doing up
02:15I can't tell what it is yet
02:25I think he's sleepwalking
02:28Kyle why are you in the kitchen
02:29I'm drawing a picture
02:38she won't wake him up
02:40no let's just put him back to bed
02:43I'm not finished yet
02:45I ran out of wavelengths 640 to 750 nanometers
02:49frequency 480 to 405 terahertz
02:53hex triplet number FF000
02:59what's he saying
03:00he's basically saying he needs more red
03:04come on Kyle
03:27I need to put them in order
03:29you can do that in the morning
03:31okay
03:35good night
03:53I guess I really was sleepwalking
03:56why would I have done that
03:58maybe you reached a boiling point
04:02sleepwalking is sometimes a symptom of stress
04:04I don't feel stressed
04:05well that doesn't mean you're not experiencing it
04:07I mean you're restricted from seeing Amanda
04:10Adam Balin has basically come back from the dead
04:12and Jesse
04:14still being Jesse
04:15that's three major relationships in your life
04:18that are asking you to give an unusual amount of emotional energy
04:21you think that's why I'm sleepwalking
04:24I think it's
04:26kind of a drastic reaction to the pressure
04:28but
04:30yes
04:30I think you may need to simplify your life a little
04:34simplify
04:37back it up
04:38I won the coin toss
04:40coin toss
04:41yeah
04:41for your brain
04:42form a line people
04:49okay
04:51here's the deal
04:52placement exams
04:53they're mostly crap
04:54but they're mandatory
04:56so it must be important to do well
04:57screw up
04:58you're looking at summer school
04:59really screw up
05:00and you have to repeat a grade
05:01how can I help
05:02Mr. Callahan is like smoking hot
05:04for a 35 year old math teacher
05:05as a result
05:07I'm in desperate need of a trig recap
05:09a recap?
05:10I haven't exactly
05:11paid attention
05:12the last semester
05:13in every subject?
05:14not in every subject
05:15I'm just hung up on a couple things
05:17in biology
05:17but does everyone need to study today?
05:19oh no
05:20I already studied
05:21but I'm entering the prom theme song contest
05:23losing is not an option
05:25I'm gonna need to tap into your mental thesaurus
05:27whatever you need
05:28so
05:29I managed to convince my mom
05:30that it wouldn't hurt
05:31to have you tutor me for placement exams
05:34that's great
05:34I'd be happy to help you study
05:37oh
05:37I don't want to study
05:39I just want an acceptable excuse
05:40to spend time with you today
05:41today?
05:43a whole afternoon to run
05:44chaperone quality time
05:48oh
05:50you're not free
05:50I should have asked you first
05:51no it's fine
05:53I'd love to spend
05:54on chaperone quality time with you
05:56good
05:58and I think I'm sensing a thought
05:59where my mom's concerned
06:00if she's letting us study together
06:02a date can't be too far behind
06:04should I ask her if we can go out?
06:06no
06:07you should ask her to think about
06:08considering the idea
06:09whether or not we can go out
06:10she's a glacier
06:11not an ice cube
06:13so if I told her that
06:14letting us study
06:15is symbolic of her trust in me
06:16and that I'd like to continue
06:17to build that trust
06:18maybe in time I can
06:19earn the honor of having a date with you
06:22yeah
06:23something exactly like that
06:25I'll see you later
06:32Nicole advised me to simplify my life
06:34to avoid distractions and commitments
06:37but the people I cared about needed me
06:39and I didn't want to disappoint them
06:42Kyle
06:43Steven
06:43is something wrong?
06:45yeah
06:45the broth from my bouillabaisse
06:47impressive
06:47Nicole will love it
06:48now she can cut it with a knife
06:50I mean it should be vaguely in the realm of soup
06:53could you make something simpler?

21:31you know
21:32just because most people don't use them
21:35you should push yourself to be not so derivative
21:39right
21:47Jessica can I interrupt?
21:49absolutely
21:49we're not finished
21:50I'll take over for you
21:59come on
22:03I need you to try and read me
22:05I read that answer sheet you made for Josh
22:07Josh
22:07that's about all I need to know
22:09when'd you get so ordinary
22:10I'm serious Jesse
22:12you knew something was wrong with me this morning
22:15maybe you can get in my head and figure out what's happening
22:18alright
22:20I'll try
22:29you have to try to
22:30I am trying
22:32it's like the signal's weak or something
22:37what did you do?
22:38what do you mean?
22:40you did something
22:41you pushed
22:42that's not fair
22:42I
22:43I didn't do anything
22:44you made me promise not to push myself
22:46and then you go out and do something new
22:48tell me what it is
22:49this isn't a game Jesse
22:51I don't know what's happening to me
22:52I could really be
22:58you're the best
22:59did you know that?
23:00I guess I do now
23:01what's this for?
23:03the other day
23:04when I was nervous about my test
23:05to see if the cancer was gone
23:06I don't really know you
23:07but
23:09anyway you were just there
23:10it's like
23:10you knew I needed a hug
23:12I don't really know you either
23:14oh
23:14it's okay
23:15hugs are good
23:16what's all the loving for?
23:19I was gonna text
23:20too impersonal
23:21then I was gonna call
23:22but again
23:22digital
23:23this is a strictly analog moment
23:25that should be shared
23:25with real time hugs
23:26and gushy feelings
23:29my test results are back
23:30I'm officially in remission
23:54what did you do?
24:04ask
24:05that you live without reserve
24:16you did it
24:17you cured her
24:19that's impossible
24:19why?
24:20because it is
24:21I healed my hand
24:22Adam Balin healed himself
24:24when he was shot
24:24it's not the same Jesse
24:25Andy's cancer was blood related
24:28manipulating blood cells
24:29to heal a cut
24:30that's not that far off
24:31from what you'd have to do
24:32but I didn't try to do anything
24:34I just wanted to make her feel better
24:36an emotional trigger
24:38which is how we always
24:39discover new abilities
24:41yes but
24:42why are you always trying to deny
24:43what we're capable of?
24:44can you just stop yelling?
24:46I'm not
24:48it's pounding in my head
24:51you're messed up
24:52you did something that taxed your system
24:55now your system is punishing you
24:57look what happens
24:58if we're not strong enough
24:59Jesse I can't do this right now
25:01everyone out there is relying on me
25:03for study groups
25:04cooking
25:06you and I are so much more than that
25:08I don't want to be so much more
25:11I want to help Josh Ace's exams
25:13Lori write her song
25:14and Steven prepare the perfect dinner for Nicole
25:16I want to spend the afternoon with Amanda
25:20I want to be there for them
25:22be the person they need me to be
25:25mediocre
25:27you wouldn't understand
25:30you're right
25:35I wouldn't
25:36Jesse I'm sorry
25:37I didn't mean to
25:38you should die
25:39you should get back out there
25:40I'm sure everyone's wondering where you are
25:50I really have to go
25:51my mom's are taking me out to celebrate
25:53pizza and batting cages
25:55I should get back to studying
25:59I'm glad I'm not a cancer girl anymore
26:01well I guess that means you need a new t-shirt
26:04I really have to go
26:09Hills I'm going to take off
26:10what about the study session?
26:12not feeling it
26:13where's Lori?
26:14upstairs
26:15Mark gave her some feedback on her prom song
26:17my TA Mark?
26:18apparently he's some all-knowing musical big shot
26:20you're kidding
26:21is he still here?
26:22no he left
26:23and he's a little obnoxious if you ask me
26:29okay
26:30all right
26:30uh where were we?
26:32um
26:32right
26:32a cord
26:33is just a straight line drawn between two points on a curve
26:37okay Mr. Traeger
26:39I think we're friends now
26:40can I be honest?
26:42sure
26:43but could Mr. Callahan wait?
26:44it's not about him
26:45it's about Mark
26:47I'm not so sure Lori should get involved with an older man
26:50an older
26:52did I miss something?
26:53apparently everything
26:54once upon a time
26:55Lori and Declan were Lachlan
26:57they were joined at the hip
26:58then they weren't
27:00personally
27:01I think they're meant to be
27:04all right
27:04so how does my TA enter the picture?
27:06oh come on
27:06like you haven't noticed
27:08no I haven't
27:09well
27:10Snarky Mark's a hottie in dork's clothing
27:12but
27:12I don't think Lori's seeing it just yet
27:14she has no idea
27:16their agro flirting
27:17is thinly disguised sexual tension
27:20sexual
27:20what?
27:22exactly
27:22what are you talking about?
27:25sexual nothing
27:26what I meant was

28:57Steven
28:58dad
29:00it's going to be okay
29:10you're back so soon?
29:12Kyle's not feeling well
29:14well if he felt he was coming down with a bug
29:16he shouldn't have offered to tutor
29:17you could have caught something
29:19thing
29:32I remember that song
29:35I haven't heard it in forever
29:36how do you know it?
29:37Kyle needed to get through something once
29:40he loves it when I play
29:45maybe it'll help him now
30:00Amanda's music was a comfort
30:02but I still felt lost and confused
30:06I knew Steven and Nicole were worried
30:08not sure how to help me
30:11all of us were hoping that answers were on the way
30:23you ready?
30:24no
30:31hello
30:31I'm
30:32Adam Balin
30:34it's so good to finally meet you
30:35we've heard a lot about you
30:37come in
30:38thank you
30:45this is my husband
30:46Steven
30:48and Nicole
30:50Kyle speaks very fondly of you
30:52well he's told us a lot about you too
30:55yeah
30:57not about the resemblance
31:00it's pretty striking
31:04I didn't try to heal Andy
31:06I wouldn't
31:07you caution me against pushing myself
31:09well using your mind to affect another person's physiology
31:12is conceivable
31:14someday
31:15but I don't think it's possible at this stage of your development
31:20yet
31:21you're experiencing strange symptoms
31:24especially my hearing
31:26sounds are louder
31:27distorted
31:35there must be a link between what you're hearing
31:37and what you've been drawing
31:49where did you get this?
31:52uh someone left it for Jesse
31:54we don't know who
31:56it was missing from the jukebox
31:57when we went to the diner
31:59well have you listened to it?
32:01yes
32:02how often?
32:04a lot lately
32:04I like it
32:06it relaxes me
32:19listen again
32:23you don't hear anything else
32:27I'm supposed to be hearing something
32:32listen carefully
32:36how can you study when your whole life just changed?
32:40Andy threatened me with my life if I blew off placement exams
32:42just because she's in remission
32:45she's tough
32:45yeah
32:46and without the chemo to make her weak
32:49she could actually kick my ass
32:51I'm just trying to distract myself
32:53from figuring out what's going on at home
32:54you too huh?
32:56why did they kick us out when things were getting good?
32:58I wanted to get the look at the mad scientist
33:00who brewed up Kyle
33:02you say it like that
33:03it sounds kind of creepy
33:04you know what I mean
33:07the dude's smart
33:08I just hope he can help Kyle figure out
33:10what's up with his power outage
33:11and all the mental brownouts
33:13and all the clumsiness
33:14all the drawings in primary colors
33:16Laurie?
33:18hey
33:20you left this sweater?
33:22yeah
33:23and I brought you this
33:25but did you take it upon yourself to rewrite my song?
33:29well
33:29rewriting implies you had more than four chords in it to begin with
33:32I'm a three chord wonder
33:33remember?
33:34you're also a great lyricist
33:37like
33:38rock my world
33:39poetic
33:40and funny
33:41and unexpected
33:43you like my lyrics?
33:45I do
33:46I mean every time I try to write my own
33:47I kind of just
33:48handle the English language like a blunt instrument
33:51hmm
33:53so
33:53you
33:54want to help me with the music?
33:58and
33:59you're gonna wow me with the lyrics?
34:01I'd be happy to do that
34:02exchange for
34:05I DJ the prom
34:08you're killing me
34:10consider it a launching platform for our hot new single
34:18Laurie Traeger
34:21high school girl
34:25you have a deal
34:42Adam thinks this record has something to do with what's wrong with me
34:45what is it about this song?
34:47well
34:47it's not the song
34:49it's the sounds buried beneath the music
34:53can you hear them?
34:54no
34:54I still can't
34:55I can't either
34:57well
34:58you wouldn't be able to perceive them Nicole
34:59they're subliminal
35:00it's not a frequency you'd be able to hear
35:03but Kyle should
35:07this is why you're feeling peculiar
35:09and why your hearing is exaggerated
35:11your subconscious is trying to tell you to listen
35:15listen
35:17that's what the instant message said
35:24you need to clear your mind
35:28block out any outside sound
35:31and focus
35:43I can hear it now
35:49Sarah and I used to take this record
35:52and bury messages for each other within the music
35:55it was our secret game
35:57we translate the sounds into images
36:00how?
36:01just like a fax machine transmits
36:03a series of tones to send a copy
36:06I fell asleep listening to the record last night
36:08and then again this afternoon
36:10and each time after listening you do those pictures
36:12they all seem so random
36:13well
36:14yes
36:15if you look at them individually but blended together
36:18Adam
36:20if someone is sending Kyle a message this way
36:23you said it was your secret game with Sarah
36:25and I'm sorry but
36:26I thought Sarah was dead
36:34she is
36:46all the drawings have been scanned and put in order
36:48we're ready
36:49okay
36:49so let's hook it up so everyone can see
36:52so how does this work?
36:54isn't it just going to be a bunch of blobs
36:56in widescreen format?
36:57more like a flip book
36:58we'll use the computer to view all 450 images in rapid succession
37:02and our eyes will knit together the individual drawings
37:05and the colors will blend
37:07we'll see what it is I'm supposed to see
37:17try speeding it up
37:19no problem
37:34glad not
37:47I'm alive
37:50I gave Sarah a Latinx ring
37:52with a red stone
37:57it was one of a kind
37:59and she must have sent this
38:03it's impossible
38:07she can't be
38:18hey
38:20bet you're looking forward to a good night's sleep
38:24I am
38:27oh
38:27before I forget
38:29happy anniversary
38:33I'm sorry I got in the way of your dinner
38:36no worries Kyle
38:37this was definitely a memorable one
38:40it was?
38:42oh sure
38:42we had a house full of teenagers
38:44a sick kid
38:45a cancer remission
38:47a secret message
38:48and a visit from a self-healing genius
38:50back from months in a coma
38:53how was it for you?
38:57meeting Adam
38:59well
39:00I know I said he was welcome here anytime
39:02but
39:04I did actually have some anxiety about it
39:06he's not used to being around other people
39:09and the message bringing up all those feelings about Sarah
39:11Kyle you don't have to make excuses for him
39:17it's just that you're both such an important part of my life
39:22we'll find a way to coexist
39:25don't start worrying about how Adam will get along with the family
39:27you'll stress yourself out
39:32so what was it that made you anxious?
39:37Adam
39:37Adam
39:38left us in charge with preparing you for some
39:41greater purpose
39:43and all I could show him today was a sick boy
39:47you were right about calling him
39:50doesn't every good doctor call him a specialist?
39:54I'm glad that I did
39:56but I don't think I'm
39:58supposed to know how to handle every situation
40:03you're too special for
40:04me to be able to
40:06handle all that
40:09Nicole
40:12I think you're special enough to handle it all
40:24hasn't everybody we know already been here today?
40:27Amanda says you were coming down with something
40:29you look fine to me
40:30I was just tired, that's all
40:36did I do something wrong?
40:40something happened while Amanda was over here
40:44really nothing did
40:47she came home and played the piano
40:51my daughter hasn't struck a note since she came back from the conservatory
40:54not one single note until today
40:57she did it because she knows you love her playing
41:02you have no idea how much I've missed it
41:08I've missed it too
41:11well, whatever you did
41:13thank you, Kyle
41:14I'll have to make an effort to be less wary of you
41:17even if you did come from a juvenile detention center
41:21Mrs. Bloom
41:23yes
41:25I know it's a lot to ask
41:27but
41:29could I take Amanda to the prom?
41:34we'll see
41:35and by that I mean I will think about it
41:38maybe
41:42yes
41:42and don't you ever strong arm me like that again, young man
42:02fortunately this food survived his little pyrotechnic display
42:05I have no clue what it is
42:06but I think someone needs to sample it
42:08uh, Stephen made that special for Nicole
42:11and?
42:12and maybe you should wait till leftovers
42:17so
42:18all your mental wires are in place again?
42:20I think so
42:21good
42:22I had enough of Kyle unplugged
42:24I mean I was getting kind of worried about you
42:27well I'm fine now
42:28so nothing to worry about
42:34that's great news about Andy
42:35yeah
42:37amazing
42:40she told me she felt better after you hugged her
42:44everyone feels better after a hug
42:46but then your system went all out of whack
42:50it was just a reaction to the message in the song
42:56you can say what you want
42:59but I'd like to think that you helped her
43:03I spent the day unable to be there for the people I cared about the most
43:07yet everyone worked to help each other when I couldn't help them
43:10or myself
43:12the problem was never that I'd taken on too much
43:15or caused myself stress
43:18it was only that I didn't see the simplest way to solve a problem
43:21is to be sure you have someone to help you
43:24I don't want to throw the life to hide away
43:29this is the reason I saved them all
43:32I don't want to think enoughfterly
43:38it was
43:38like to convince her i don't
43:41want to be sure you're he's by the top but I don't
43:42want to know I just want to
43:43be darned you
