Bridgewater is a production of iHeartRadio

three D audio and Grim and Mild from

0:06

listen with headphones. Listener

0:09

discretion advised. This

0:15

way, it's this way.

0:19

Wait, it's coming from over here,

0:22

so last, so last,

0:26

come on, hurry

0:28

there, Wait,

0:40

Dad, dad, Jeremy?

0:44

Who's we have got to stop meeting

0:46

like this? Oh it's just you? Wow?

0:49

Am I already such old news? That is not what

0:51

I meant. I just sorry. I

0:54

Um, I thought you were a big

0:57

foot? Maybe what? Well, I assume

0:59

we're here for the same reason, right the attack on the

1:01

campers, Um right, yeah,

1:04

right right, I guess I should have expected

1:06

to see you. It seems like you and your friends really dodged

1:09

a bullet. Holy crap. Yeah, I mean

1:11

the ground was torn to shreds, and from what they said about

1:13

the dead camper on the news, that was Yeah, I'm starting

1:15

to think that it was a bad idea coming back here. Wait

1:18

did you did? I what?

1:21

No, never mind that you're gonna think I'm nuts. Oh

1:23

No, I think I think we're at

1:25

the point where you should know that I'm the right

1:27

audience for stuff that sounds nuts.

1:30

I thought I heard a voice. I mean just

1:33

now, But it wasn't you. It was a woman. I think

1:35

you heard that. Yeah, yeah, you did too.

1:38

What do you think it was? Or? I guess the question

1:40

is who? Okay, so I recognize

1:42

that voice, at least I think I did. Um,

1:44

Well, who is it? It's it's

1:47

someone impossible. What do you mean

1:49

the woman that I mentioned to you

1:51

before, that the one who died in free

1:53

Time? Yeah, what about her? It was her voice?

1:56

What? Yeah? I know it

1:59

sounds crazy. I'm crazy, remember, right? No, right

2:02

right? I don't know. I don't know. I

2:05

I don't believe in ghosts. What is happening?

2:07

Well, maybe it's some kind of mimic, something

2:10

pretending to be her somehow, a mimic

2:13

like like what, well,

2:16

you're the expert. But that's a thing,

2:18

right, changelings and shape shifters. You

2:21

know. I was just talking about shape shifters with

2:23

my friend. Whatever attack the camper feels

2:26

like the thing that we saw the other day, but some

2:28

of the details aren't lining up. So we were thinking

2:30

maybe there's something that can yeah,

2:33

I don't know, transform in some way, which

2:35

would explain all of the different kinds of attacks

2:37

that have been happening lately. Yeah, you think it's all

2:39

one creature. I don't know. I don't know. I haven't

2:41

actually gotten my eyes on anything except the Howler,

2:44

and that did not feel like

2:46

a shape shifter. This is so strange.

2:50

I mean, I've been feeling like things are off here, you

2:52

know, but I haven't seen anything yet. So

2:54

I think if I hadn't met you, I would think I was going

2:57

completely badge it crazy these days. Well,

2:59

I am happy that I've kept you saying I

3:02

have to say it's funny. Why

3:05

no. I was also talking to

3:07

the same friend about how

3:10

You're one of the first people that I've

3:13

met in a long time that doesn't make me feel like I'm

3:15

a total headcase when I talk

3:17

to them. Well, aren't we a pair, isn't

3:20

it? Rich? We're

3:22

just two middle aged weirdos wandering through the wilderness,

3:25

one of us desperately trying to find a monster,

3:28

the other one tripping over them all the time.

3:30

And amazingly, that feels like the

3:32

least of my problems. Are you

3:34

saying there's more to your interest in all of this, more

3:37

than just childhood obsession. Yeah,

3:42

I'd like to hear about it. I

3:44

mean, if you're if you're willing to talk about

3:46

it, that is, maybe maybe

3:48

we could grab a drink sometime. Oh, I would

3:50

actually really like that. You

3:52

don't have to founce those surprised. No, I'm

3:54

not, you

3:58

know, I just don't have a lot of people to talk

4:00

to about this stuff, or at least

4:02

the people that I do have to talk to about it are all tangled

4:05

up in it themselves. So well,

4:07

it sounds like we'll be eating a few drinks. Then,

4:10

yes, what's your poison,

4:13

let's get trash.

4:51

Okay, So I mean it sounds like it supports

4:53

the shapeshifter theory. Voice mimicry is so

4:55

common. Yeah, but it's too common. I'm

4:58

still not sure about the voice throwing, the ability

5:00

to pull two people who were standing side by

5:02

side in opposite directions. Maybe it was just run

5:05

of the mill magic, something that messed with our perception.

5:07

Well, whatever it was, we need to be more careful. We

5:09

can't keep getting separated like that,

5:11

or we will always find each other, I promise.

5:16

Well, I want to be prepared.

5:19

I've texted Vippin and he's going to pull everything that you

5:21

can about voice mimicry. But even

5:23

with the added detail of it sounding like it

5:25

was coming from two different places. We're

5:27

looking at a lot of possibilities, still, so

5:29

many possibilities. You

5:31

know. It's funny. I always thought

5:34

it was fascinating how no matter the location

5:36

or the culture, human beings they

5:38

come up with the same kinds of monsters

5:41

over and over again. There are these, you

5:44

know, culturally religiously

5:46

specific ones, of course, but

5:49

the basic idea of shape

5:52

shifters, vampires, vengeful

5:54

spirits. There are iterations

5:56

of those all over the world.

5:59

And now I think we're

6:02

all those people actually just

6:04

seeing the exact same thing something it's something

6:07

real that they're actually seeing, and then they add

6:10

the filter of their own cultural

6:12

norms at the time that

6:15

they saw it to shape the narrative

6:17

of that entity. Right. You

6:19

really love this stuff, don't all

6:22

of the folklore and history? Yeah, I mean

6:24

I used to. Anyway, Now it feels like I just it

6:28

feels very different now, it feels like it's a survival

6:31

tool. WHOA

6:34

what happened here? Well it happened

6:36

again? What what happened again?

6:39

The creepy humming house shaking thing and happened

6:41

to you guys the other night, this time with added

6:43

spooky soundtrack. Was

6:46

music? Music? What kind of music? Oh,

6:48

the kind that makes you feel like a killer clown is

6:50

going to pop out at any moment. Killer. Yeah,

6:53

it was classical, some kind of you know, string instrument.

6:55

I think maybe a harp. Music was never really

6:57

my strong suit, but it was Wait wait, what the

7:00

how? Why did that lead you to tear apart your living room?

7:02

Well it sounded like it was coming from inside the house,

7:04

like somebody hidden a speaker somewhere. Oh,

7:06

come on, you did this? Don't

7:08

you think that you would have noticed if someone stuck

7:11

a speaker cabinet behind your couch. Speakers

7:16

can be really small now, like like

7:19

everything else. But you

7:21

don't You don't really think that

7:23

somebody planted something here, do you?

7:25

I don't know, But that doesn't mean something didn't get

7:27

in here anyway. You know, what do you mean? You

7:30

came through the veil to our side, so

7:33

have a bunch of monsters. So's to say that something else couldn't

7:35

have as well? I mean, I don't know, like like someone

7:37

who came in and planted a tiny fairy

7:39

speaker or a magic hor I told

7:41

her it was unlike Jeremy. Come on, well, then,

7:44

the living Why are you helping her, because

7:47

what if it was coming from something that's already

7:49

here, I don't follow. We were

7:51

thinking about the voicemails, the ones who left Thomas right,

7:54

voicemails. What we

7:56

never asked you about it. When you were

7:58

trying to speak to me, trying to get the word out

8:00

about what was happening, it was coming through as a messages

8:03

on my machine. You weren't just hearing my

8:05

voice. I just assumed,

8:07

I'm yet that's how I heard

8:09

Celeste, just a disembodied voice in the

8:11

limital, right. But that's because there's

8:13

nothing in the liminal. So somehow,

8:16

when you were speaking through the veil, it was

8:18

captured by an old message machine. Yeah,

8:21

thank god too, because if I'd

8:23

just been hearing your voice, people would have thought I was really

8:25

off my rocker. You know, I think people thought you were off

8:27

your rocker. Anyway, I am on my rocker,

8:29

son. So wait a minute. So you think that the music

8:32

was coming from something that you already owns,

8:34

that it's from the liminal getting

8:37

here somehow, I don't

8:39

think it's from the liminal. I think it's from the other side.

8:42

It would have to be from the other side.

8:44

My whole time there, I never heard anything close

8:47

to music. Well, that doesn't mean that things haven't

8:49

changed. I mean, could all then somehow

8:52

be doing it? And are you sure?

8:54

Are you both sure that it wasn't actually singing.

8:57

It's not like the connection between here and

8:59

the liminal is exactly like Crystal Clear. No,

9:01

not singing. Okay, it was definitely instrumental

9:03

in it. There's something so weird about

9:06

it? What what? What could be weirder than

9:08

it coming from nowhere? I

9:10

don't know? Right, nothing sounded human,

9:12

nana like, even if it was human

9:15

instruments, it was like they were being played by something

9:17

that wasn't it was I'm

9:20

badly played off key. No, that's

9:22

not it. I can't explain it. It's

9:24

more like it came with a feeling,

9:27

you know. I think that's what you're trying to get it right, like

9:29

feelingly. Yeah, it came with this feeling.

9:33

Oh that can't be good. Well, hence

9:35

trying to find some sort of reasonable explanation,

9:38

you know, reasonable being an extremely relative

9:40

term over here. Okay, dude, have you found

9:42

anything nothing? How

9:45

do you fare in the swamp? Was it that thing that we saw

9:47

killed the camper? Yes, maybe

9:50

it's a little unclear, but

9:52

it is clear that something, something

9:55

is is definitely trying to communicate with us.

9:57

Has So we heard

10:00

Celeste's voice. What

10:02

what isn't she like dead? Yeah?

10:06

And not in the limit? All right? Okay,

10:09

so so we have no idea what

10:11

we're dealing with here. Well what was she saying? I

10:13

don't know. She was saying a bunch of stuff, trusting

10:15

her and it

10:17

happening again. Would be better this time?

10:20

Right? What better? Okay,

10:22

Well, that's that's good. She also said

10:25

we want you and come

10:28

here, which is what Ethan

10:30

said. That's right, Yeah, exactly

10:32

the same thing. Yeah, maybe it was someone who

10:34

got possessed in the same way that Ethan did. It

10:37

wasn't a person. No, that

10:39

voice was coming from two different directions,

10:41

and it was definitely Celeste

10:43

or her voice at least that I know.

10:46

Okay, we don't really know what's on the other

10:48

side yet. Maybe it was some kind

10:50

of afterlife and Celeste's

10:53

spirit is trying to talk to you. I

10:55

think that that would be the best option. Honestly, I don't

10:57

know. Should we hold as

10:59

say answer, find a medium

11:02

medium couldn't hurt. I

11:04

have never done a SANDS before, but I guess I know the

11:06

basics. I mean, I think we can

11:08

probably find a medium in Bridgwater. Well,

11:10

yeah, we have to be careful because

11:12

even if talking to the dead

11:15

is possible, it doesn't mean that there aren't a whole

11:17

shitload of scammers out there. A

11:20

medium, a medium. We need to find the right

11:22

medium, Yes, exactly, we

11:25

need someone reputable. I mean, I can't believe I'm saying

11:27

that, but maybe I can try to talk to some of the

11:29

other folklore folks and see if they do

11:31

not a psychic the right communication

11:34

medium. Okay, think about it. Thomas

11:37

was able to communicate through the answering

11:39

machine, Celeste voice was

11:41

coming through the swamp. There's

11:44

no seeming connection between those

11:46

things. Okay, So what if

11:48

there is a connection and we're

11:50

just not seeing it. Well, I think that describes

11:52

a lot of what we're doing right now.

11:55

Right sure, yeah, but maybe there's a way to get

11:57

more data to connect the dots. How

11:59

so, Alden, Alden, before

12:01

you got here, Thomas, did he ever try to reach out to

12:03

He try to contact someone over here. He

12:06

was a scared seven year old trapped in another

12:08

dimension. He definitely tried to call out

12:10

for help. Okay, so maybe someone

12:12

hurt him, and if we figure out

12:14

how they hurt him, then we say okay,

12:17

okay, but how would we do that the I mean, this

12:19

was eighty years ago. You know his

12:21

parents are long dead, right,

12:25

he had a younger brother, Alden

12:27

as a brother, and he's

12:29

still alive. What really

12:32

I found him? When I was looking into Alden's story,

12:35

I didn't think it was relevant. Honestly, it's

12:37

not like we can tell him anything that would give

12:39

him closure after all these years. And he was

12:41

only five when Alden went missing, so he might

12:43

not even remember it happening. But that doesn't mean

12:46

he wasn't communicated with later exactly.

12:49

You didn't start hearing Thomas's voicemails

12:51

until this year, but who knows

12:53

when he left them. Well, I was always

12:55

calling out to you, Anne, always

12:58

right, So maybe Alden's

13:00

brother heard something he can't explain either.

13:03

You think he would talk to us, well, I mean, I think it's worth

13:05

to try, and he's right here in Bridgewater.

13:14

Hey mister Jansen, Hi,

13:17

thank thanks for agreeing to

13:19

talk to us. Oh please call me Lee.

13:22

Not every day a good visitors. It's

13:24

really nice to meet you, Lee. I'm Thomas and

13:26

this is Jeremy. Has

13:29

your family mostly moved away? Well,

13:31

I never had children myself

13:33

and my sister restaur

13:35

Soul. Her kids live up in New Hampshire

13:38

and their kids are all grown

13:40

now. So oh, they come and visit

13:42

when they can. But there's not a

13:45

lot in the way of entertainment in this place. So

13:49

when they said they were two men

13:51

here to interview me for a book, well that

13:53

was just about me my day.

13:56

Well, we're happy to hear that, although

13:59

I can to being quite

14:01

confused as why you'd want

14:03

to talk to me. Well, I am

14:06

a professor here at the local

14:08

college, and I'm writing a book about the region, and specifically

14:12

I'm looking at unsolved mysteries and

14:15

the like. And I know that you have lived

14:17

here your entire life. I have,

14:20

and

14:20

I also

14:23

know that you have a personal um. This

14:26

is about all of them, isn't it. Yes,

14:30

yeah, I take it. You've been asked about

14:32

him before a few times

14:34

for the year. Every now

14:36

and again, someone will get their heads stuck

14:38

into all the mission person cases

14:41

in Bridgewater. My

14:43

brother is one of the it's kept

14:46

folks interest I think

14:48

because he was so young and there was

14:50

never any evidence at all as to what

14:53

happened. I'm so sorry.

14:55

Oh I don't remember. And if that's what you're

14:57

here for, well, he was two years old

15:00

other than me, and I barely remember him

15:02

at all. That must have been hard for all of

15:04

you. My family, we we

15:07

didn't really talk about it.

15:09

It was a it was a different time back then.

15:12

But I also know that losing

15:14

your child isn't something you ever get

15:16

over. And your parents, they

15:21

did they ever have any guesses

15:23

or talk to you about what might

15:25

have happened? Well, they assumed he was kidnapped,

15:28

like everyone else. What did

15:30

you think? My

15:33

sister, she was there

15:36

right before it happened, and she

15:39

always thought it was some kind of monster

15:41

in the woods. I guess that would make sense.

15:43

I mean, she was a child herself, right, It's

15:46

not a belief she grew out of. And

15:50

and what what did you believe? I

15:54

always thought there was something strange about

15:56

this place. And based

15:59

on the type of folks who have come to talk to me through

16:01

the years, I know I'm not the only one. And

16:05

I suspect you're not here

16:08

to ask me about whatever official

16:10

investigation took place back then.

16:13

No we're not, so go

16:16

on tell me whatever

16:18

wild theory you have. We

16:21

actually were wondering more

16:23

if you had any theories or if there's anything

16:25

through the years that you haven't

16:28

been able to explain about

16:30

it. You may have a Shaane my

16:33

brother's ghost track down

16:35

the monstating we are

16:37

not trying to make a mockery of your family's tragedially,

16:40

we care about Alden his

16:42

story. But I take it a lot of the people who have come

16:44

to you through the years have just been looking for

16:46

something sensational, right,

16:52

that's a way of putting it. We don't

16:54

want anything but the truth. And if that

16:56

truth is that you have no memory of

16:58

your brother and nothing

17:00

of his life or disappearance to

17:02

share at this point, then that's totally

17:05

okay. What truth

17:07

are you expecting to find? What

17:10

do you mean? Folks usually

17:12

have an idea in their heads. You

17:16

say you want my theory, but

17:18

I'm betting you have one of your own. We

17:22

we've heard of missing people being able to contact

17:25

they're loved ones. I've never

17:28

seen his ghost. As much as

17:30

some people might want to believe that, Yeah,

17:32

I guess we're not really talking about a ghost so much

17:35

as I don't

17:37

know. Did you ever hear of a voice? Of

17:39

a voice that might

17:42

that might have sounded like all then a

17:44

ghostly voice is still a ghost. Not

17:46

ghostly. No, it would have been

17:49

It would have come from somewhere like an answering

17:51

machine or a phone or

17:54

some specific place, or maybe any any kind

17:56

of object that can produce a sound, right, I

17:59

mean, as far as we know, to be a record player

18:01

or a radio, a radio,

18:04

yeah, right, it could be a radio. Who

18:07

are you people? Have you heard something?

18:09

Me? Olden? He

18:14

had a little radio on

18:16

his nightstand when I went

18:18

to college. I took it with me. I've

18:22

had it ever since. And you heard

18:25

something from this radio, something other than a broadcast.

18:31

It used to act funny. Yeah,

18:33

I'd have a tune to one of the usual

18:35

stations, strong signal and all that, but

18:39

it gets static in

18:42

well, strange sometimes

18:45

strange. How you said

18:47

other people have heard voices before

18:50

of people who disappeared.

18:53

Yes, well we can't tell you more without violating

18:55

people's privacy. But

18:59

yes, I always thought

19:01

I was imagining it. But but you

19:03

heard something. I don't know what

19:06

it was. It It

19:08

sounded like a little boy, but I

19:10

always I always thought it was interference

19:13

from another broadcast. It was

19:15

an old radio, and there were

19:17

so many more stations than there

19:19

used to be. When was

19:22

this, let me see it

19:24

was that was at the Green Bank

19:26

House. So the seventies,

19:29

well the eighties. Maybe

19:34

do you still have that radio?

19:59

Hello? Hey, Hippin, come in, Hey

20:01

Hippin. Hey is Jeremy here? Oh?

20:04

You just missed him? Yeah? He and Thomas went

20:06

back to talk to Alden's brother. Oh

20:08

Lee, you know. Yeah,

20:10

Olivia and I talked about it a little bit. I

20:13

thought we agreed it wouldn't be good to tell him

20:15

anything. No, we do, we do agree, But I

20:17

realized maybe he could tell

20:19

us something that maybe maybe Alden

20:21

tried to communicate with him the same way Thomas

20:24

did with Anne. Oh

20:26

smart, how are

20:28

you guys doing after the whole earthquake

20:30

thing? I texted him, You're

20:33

not the only one, apparently I've missed quite the afternoon.

20:36

Yeah, how was your coffee

20:38

with m Peyton? Illuminating?

20:41

I'll tell you all about it. But you're okay?

20:43

Really? Yeah, I mean we're okay, but I

20:46

mean it can't be good

20:48

that this is the second time it's happened, right,

20:51

Yeah about that. I

20:54

don't think anyone should be staying here until we figure

20:56

out what's going on. It could be dangerous. That's

20:58

a good point. Yeah, we'll

21:00

figure something out. You could stay with me. I

21:03

mean I only have a couch, but I

21:05

could sleep on that and you could take my bed. I really

21:08

don't mind. I don't actually live here,

21:10

remember, Oh right,

21:13

God, stupid forget I said

21:15

anything, no, no, thank you if it that's

21:17

a really sweet offer. And

21:19

and the offer extends

21:22

to you too. I know Jeremy

21:24

doesn't have a guest room either, but between

21:26

the two of us, wow,

21:29

I think it might be time for us to go

21:32

home with Live. But thank you? Really?

21:36

Are you sure? I don't know how much

21:38

longer we can hide Thomas from your mom

21:40

Live. I'm sure we could couch

21:43

surf, but you

21:45

know it's it's time. So about

21:47

that. What Thomas

21:49

hasn't talked to you about?

21:52

What? I look

21:55

Mom needed to know Live, so I

21:58

brought Thomas to see her and via

22:00

christ Well, it was it was, I mean,

22:02

it became fine. You and I explained everything,

22:05

and she and Thomas talked. So I don't know. I think

22:07

she she might be willing to have

22:09

you guys stay over. Would this be why?

22:12

Maybe she's not returning any of my calls.

22:14

Well, she's pissed Nana, and I think she

22:16

has every right to be. Oh, Olivia,

22:18

I am not okay with you going behind

22:20

my back like this. Oh and I'm not okay with

22:22

you hiding my grandfather's identity for

22:24

forty years. So yeah, I guess we're even. Yeah,

22:27

I guess. So what

22:30

should I expect then? Will she even let me

22:33

into the house? Fifty

22:35

fifty chance? I mean, maybe a little higher,

22:37

since it's it's just her right now, Ethan and your

22:39

dad are still at his parents right, Yeah, for

22:41

the next week at least, I don't like. Gives

22:43

this plenty of time to talk it out. Well,

22:45

that's optimistic, all

22:48

right, I'm gonna go call your mom, make

22:50

sure it's okay, and then pack a

22:52

bag and just give

22:54

me your phone. Boy, she'll pick up

22:56

for you. Okay. So you're just leaning

22:58

into her being kissed off at you that, Well,

23:01

it can't get any worse, can it? I

23:03

mean, only one way to find out. So

23:08

how do you actually feel about that?

23:11

I don't know. I mean, I

23:13

do think my mom has settled down a little,

23:16

but putting her and Nana

23:18

and Thomas and I mean, let's be honest, probably

23:20

Jeremy all in a room is going to be Oh

23:23

yeah, I don't envy that conversation.

23:27

Does that offer to stay apply

23:29

to escaping to yours just for an emergency drink?

23:32

Yeah? Definitely. I'm

23:34

sorry about that. I didn't It

23:36

was that was so presumptuous

23:39

of me. Biffin. You weren't propositioning

23:41

me. You were making a nice offer to a

23:43

friend, you know, unless

23:47

no, no, no, I swear I

23:49

was just friendly not

23:52

to say that. I mean, you know, I think we

23:55

would you like to go out on a date sometime? What

23:58

would you like? Yes? Yes,

24:02

definitely I would yes that that

24:04

would be great good good.

24:07

I mean not now obviously, or even like this

24:09

week, because but after we

24:11

stop the end of the world or whatever,

24:14

then maybe we'll go out

24:16

to celebrate. Okay, perfect, all

24:19

right, your mom's expecting us later.

24:22

How'd that go? Well, she

24:24

didn't yell at me, so so

24:26

really bad. H yeah, this is going to be

24:28

very unpleasant, all right.

24:30

Vivin, how is our favorite

24:33

mystical leader? Um? She

24:35

was surprisingly forthcoming? Really

24:38

yeah, she explained everything she knows. The

24:40

gathering is tasked with protecting our world

24:43

from the other by keeping the gate closed

24:45

through human sacrifice. Well, she said,

24:47

volunteering. I'm sure

24:50

she did. It'll be her in Virginia.

24:53

When the time comes, their leader goes

24:55

into the limino willingly, letting the person

24:57

in there already move on. She signed

24:59

up for that. Apparently she's a legacy,

25:02

and I bet she's not the only one. The gathering

25:04

is just the group here on the East Coast.

25:07

There are what sounds like hundreds

25:09

of other groups around the world doing the same

25:12

thing. So a network of

25:14

supernatural gatekeepers and literally,

25:17

yeah, literally, and sometimes

25:19

that leads to stuff like the children of Tichiba,

25:22

people going rogue and trying to harness the power

25:24

of the fay Realm for themselves. Why is

25:26

that even possible? Peyton wasn't sure.

25:28

She said there's a lot of magic over

25:30

there that we still don't understand, and maybe

25:33

someone could learn it, But she was

25:36

pretty insistent on the fact that the fae

25:38

are not something to be controlled. Did

25:40

it seem like she was interested in learning that

25:42

magic herself. I don't

25:45

think so. I think we can trust

25:47

her. She clearly has a

25:49

lot of respect for the other side. She

25:51

doesn't think that she's more powerful than it, or

25:53

that she could try and harness it in the

25:55

way that the children wanted to. Well,

25:57

respect isn't all that far from reverend.

26:00

I mean, when she got rid of the sasquatch, she

26:02

sent it back instead of killing it, and

26:06

always bugged me she has killed

26:08

monsters before, or well her dad

26:10

did, I guess, but she didn't seem

26:12

bothered by that idea. I just want

26:15

us to be careful. Okay. It all feels a little

26:17

convenient that she showed up here.

26:19

Why isn't she filling in for Celeste? I

26:21

mean that has to happen from gathering group to gathering

26:24

group, right. She said they don't actually

26:26

talk all that much, but that she

26:28

knew something was wrong up here. Yeah,

26:31

And my question is how it's

26:33

not like Bridgewater went from having no paranormal

26:36

sidings to having a bunch of them. I mean, how

26:38

would she even know that things have gone wrong?

26:40

Now? Celeste always said she was attuned,

26:43

right, Maybe they're taught to connect

26:46

to the veil somehow feel it when it

26:48

tears or gets thin. Well, that's what I'm

26:50

worried about. That sounds like magic

26:52

to me. And if Peyton has learned that

26:55

a learned how to banish monsters back to the

26:57

other side. Then what

26:59

else has she learned? What could she be hiding

27:01

from us? I see that finding

27:03

out about literal monsters that want to kill

27:06

us has not made you less suspicious of humans,

27:08

Nana. I'm just saying I

27:10

think we should be careful. Yes,

27:13

yes, yeah,

27:15

Oh that's Jeremy. They're done at

27:17

the retirement home and headed to my house. Ooof

27:21

Okay, looks like it's time

27:23

to face the music. Hey,

27:31

thanks her waiting for us. I didn't think it was a great

27:33

idea to just knock on the door. Are you

27:35

okay? You sure you want to do this? I

27:37

think it's a good idea for us to stay somewhere else,

27:40

And she's

27:42

really willing. I do want more

27:44

time with her. Should I even

27:46

be here for this? I don't. I don't want to overwhelm Shelley.

27:49

I mean, she's already been told all the really

27:51

life shattering stuff, right, and it's not like

27:53

she's never met you. Yeah, but not as

27:56

her brother. Okay,

27:59

did you guys have any luquidly Yeah?

28:01

We actually were able to borrow an old radio

28:03

that he thinks he may have heard Alden through

28:05

back in this happenies. Really, that's

28:08

awesome news. Yeah, so

28:10

we can try to communicate with the missing boy

28:12

from the nineteen forties through a radio

28:15

after we have this weird family reuning

28:17

with my new half sister and my dad. Dad.

28:20

All right, this is gonna be fine. Yeah, yeah,

28:22

yeah, yeah, this is gonna be fun. Yeah. What

28:26

are you waiting for? I don't know. Should

28:29

we knock? I have a key, but I don't know if that's the right

28:31

thing to do. I live

28:33

here. Oh my god, Hey

28:35

Mom, we're home. Oh oh

28:39

great, you're all here, Jeremy.

28:44

Yeah, well it's you

28:49

always said you wished you'd grown up with siblings.

28:52

That is very helpful. Thank

28:54

you live. Someone had to break the eyes, Shelley.

28:57

I no, not

29:00

ready to talk to you yet. So I look,

29:03

I understand that you guys need a place to stay

29:05

for god knows what reason, But Nana's

29:07

house is haunted. Uh wow.

29:09

Just because we're under one roof, it

29:12

does not mean we're a family.
