00:02 - This is patrol volunteer J1987.
00:20 Reporting a stray in wooded area.
00:22 - Okay, just stay calm.
00:24 They're not hostile.
00:25 - Yes, they are.
00:28 They are.
00:29 - Beth, you can't keep blaming yourself what happened.
00:34 - Something's happening that I don't understand.
00:40 I keep having these dreams.
00:44 These dreams are so vivid,
00:50 but they're not real.
00:53 And yet, they're connected to something real.
00:58 Something in me.
00:59 Do you think it's possible for the things we do
01:03 in our dreams to change our lives while we're awake?
01:06 Those people, things, they're getting worse.
01:10 And I wonder if it's nuts.
01:12 - Just because you have some witchy immunity
01:15 doesn't mean you can drag me into dangerous situations.
01:18 - How come everyone's turning except you?
01:26 (dramatic music)
01:29 - Humanity.
01:46 You gotta treat 'em with a little humanity.
01:48 'Cause that's what we do.
01:51 We care.
