Previously on From...

We need to figure out

where you're gonna
live from now on.

I don't think
she's a bad person.

If it's all right,
she would like to live here.

- With you.
- Okay. Sure.

Abby! Stop! No, no!

Hey, Abbs.
I could really use some help.

No! Hey! Hey!

Elgin,
I don't want to hate you.

This place took advantage
of both of us.

There's something
I need your help with.

I think we're gonna need
a little bit more.

So, you just... walk inside?

Then I find my dad.
Ethan called it Storywalking.

He learned about it
from one of his books,

and all his books
are under the house now.

Shit!

I see the bag.

What are the titles?

"Grand Gooligog,"
"The Cromenockle."

Jade, tell me you got something.

The best thing I can do
is just find a way

to unlock
whatever's locked in here.

Henry said Miranda
started seeing this place

after an acid trip they took.

If it worked for her, it stands
to reason it could work for me.

The night we arrived here,
you had a dream.

- Lake of Tears?
- It's here.

And I need you to find it.

- Maybe Jade can help.
- Jade?

The lake of what?

Why were you meditating?

Trying to remember something
that I used to know.

Hey, Victor,
we got a lake to find.

Victor!

Hey, talk to me, Son.

I told myself it wasn't real.
I told myself it wasn't real.

My wife, Miranda,

she painted things
she saw here.

One of those paintings
was of a man in a yellow suit.

You're telling me
this could be the same suit?

You don't see a lot of people
walking around here

in a canary yellow suit.

Well, Victor obviously
recognized it.

He didn't just recognize it.

I watched a grown man
wet his pants.

My question is,
if the suit's here,

then where's
the guy who wore it?

Long gone, maybe.

For all we know,
the suit might have been

laying out there
in the forest for years.

This close to town?

It's not like
it's easy to miss.

Then, maybe those things
that come out at night

left it there
to mess with our heads.

- Come on.
- The point is, we don't know.

The best thing we can do
right now is talk to Victor.

I'll-- I'll do it.
I'll talk to him.

No, maybe we should all--

I.. I will talk to my son.

Alone.

Okay.

If there's
nothing else, I'll...

- Yeah, no.
- Okay.

The young boy,
the one dressed in white,

he said to us that
we're running out of time.

For 40 years,

that boy was nothing
but a painting in my basement.

That suit, this place,

all just paintings
in the basement. And now...

I think there was a part of me

that was still trying to pretend
any of this was normal.

Does he know?
About his wife?

About you?

We don't even know if it's real.

It's real.

No. No, Tabitha's right.

We need to be
pretty goddamn sure.

Have you said
anything to Fatima?

Nah, she's dealing
with enough as is.

All right, then everyone who
knows is standing in this room.

Let's keep it that way
for now. Understood?

Yeah.

The man in the yellow suit,

if Miranda
was able to paint him,

that means,
somewhere in your mind,

there might be
an answer to who he is.

If this is about
your fucking mushrooms...

Boyd, are you seriously okay
with him taking magic mushrooms

that he found
in a haunted forest?

No, Donna, I'm not.

I'm also not okay
with waking up every morning

and counting
how many new bodies there are.

Are you okay with that?
We're losing. Okay?

I'm not gonna say that
out there,

but in here,
whatever game this is,

we are losing.

And then that freaky
little kid in white pops up

and tells Tabitha that
we're running out of time

and we still don't know
the goddamn rules.

If there are answers
in his head, any answers,

we need to get them out. Okay?

I'll be there with him.

Anything goes wrong,
I'm right there.

Well, good luck with that.

Ellis, there are
people waiting

to go up to the settlement
to gather food.

People still need to eat.

And you, you do this,

you go on this little trip,

you know you may
not come back, right?

Yeah.

Come on. Let's go.

Yeah.

Boyd, would you mind
giving us a minute, please?

What? Yeah.
Yes, of course.

Of course. Yeah.

Come in.

I hope I didn't wake you.

I didn't sleep much.

Neither did I, at first.

I, um...

I was...
hoping we could talk.

Okay.

I assume...Kenny
told you about me?

About what I did?

Yeah.

So, why would you
want you live here?

Because when I met you,
I knew you were kind.

I know what
you did was terrible,

but my father
used to always say

that only
good people are tortured

by the bad things
that they've done.

Plus, I figured here
I'd get my own room.

I'll go make us breakfast.

I'll be right down.

Ow.

Ow.

Ow! No, no, no, no, no!
No! Please!

No!

- Sara?
- No!

No, no, no, please!

What's happened?

Why were you
in the woods with Ethan?

You should really
ask Ethan about that.

I'm asking you.

Did he tell you
he saw Jim in the forest?

Yeah.

Well, apparently, Jim told him

that he had to find
the Lake of Tears.

Does that sound familiar?

That's not--
that's not real.

No, it's not.
But it is to him.

I'm not exactly
the best person

to be giving advice about...

well, anything really,

but I do know...

some kids just
feel more comfortable

living in their
imagination. Right?

It's where they go
when the world gets scary.

'Cause, sometimes, believing
in impossible things,

it... helps with the, um...

It just helps.

I'm sorry about
what I said in the barn.

Don't be.

You weren't wrong.

Be careful with those.

Everything all right?

If you can tell me the last time
everything was all right,

you win a cookie.

Are you ready for this?

Fuck no.

Ethan?

Dad?

Can you hear me?

Please, answer me.

Dad.

Yeah?

Why didn't you tell me
about the Lake of Tears?

Why did you go to Jade
and Victor and not come to me?

Ethan.

I need you
to talk to me, please.

I didn't tell you because
I knew you wouldn't believe me.

He told me
I need to find it.

He told me.

And when I find it,
that'll prove it was real.

He's not gone.
He's still here.

Okay, then.

I need you to pack a bag.

Why?

We're going on a trip.

You find anything?

No, they're kids'
books, Julie.

If you don't wanna help me,
I can do this on my own.

I'm not saying that.

I just...

- Hmm.
- What?

Storywalker Fred.

Who?

Who's that?

Uh, he's the distant cousin
of the Grand Gooligog.

Uh, here we are.

"Storywalker Fred was
an elevator repairman

who spent his weekends
Storywalking as he pleased

through all
the wondrous tales

and greatest adventures
of our time."

Julie?

Hide the books.

Ah, yeah. We're in here!

I need you
to pack your bag.

We're going out
to the settlement.

Why?

Ethan's convinced he needs
to find that Lake of Tears.

The magic lake
he used to talk about?

Yeah.

He said
he saw your father,

and then your dad
asked him to find it.

He-- He saw him?

- What does that mean?
- I don't know.

I think he's grieving.

What I do know is that,
if I try to stop him,

then he'll sneak out
and look for it by himself.

This way,
I can keep him safe.

Okay.

So, what do
you need me for?

Well, you're not
staying here alone.

I'm not gonna be alone.
I'll be with Randall.

- Randall.
- Mom, it's not like that.

It's really not.

I'll stay at the clinic.
Kristi and Marielle are there.

Can I talk
to you for a minute?

- Mom!
- It's okay.

Look, first of all,
I just wanna say sorry--

No, no, no.
Stop talking. Just listen.

Okay.

I don't know you, Randall.

I don't know who you are
or what you want.

Julie trusts you.

She feels safe around you,
and she needs that right now.

So, I need you to look me
in the eye and tell me

you understand
what I will do to you

if you ever do anything
to break that trust.

I understand.

Okay, good.

Mom.

Honey.

What?

- I love you.
- And I love you, too.

- Promise me you'll be okay.
- I promise.

Yeah.

I'll be back tomorrow.

Yeah.

This is your water.

Look, I don't need to go.

Ellis, it's your turn.

Yeah, but I'm sure Donna can
find someone to take my place.

I'm fine.

And Donna needs
people out there

that she knows
she can rely on.

Honey, I'm okay,
I promise.

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

Tommy is responsible
for the cans on the door,

Ella and Jordan
will check the windows,

and then about 20 minutes
or so before sundown--

Do a headcount, I know.
I got it.

Just, uh,
keep an eye on Fatima,

with Ellis gone.

Yeah, I got it.

Yup.

- Donna?
- Okay.

Do you have room for two more?

More the merrier.

Okay, let's, uh,
move it out.

Come on.

Let's go!

How's this?

This is, uh, perfect.
Thank you, Elgin.

I can help you with the rest,
if you tell me what this is for.

The rest
I have to do myself.

You should go now.

Okay.

Victor. Hey.

Three, four...

What are you doing?

I have to see
if the trees have moved.

Why-- why would the trees
be moving?

Because everything
is changing,

and first it was snowing,
and now everything's green,

and everything is just moving
too fast.

And I-I used to
measure all the time, and--

and then I haven't been
paying attention,

and I should have
been paying attention.

I should have been
paying attention.

Measure...

Can I help?

See if the trees are moving?

Okay.

Okay, uh, what do I do?

You start with
this leg like this.

- One.
- One.

Two.

What the fuck?

Hi.

You know what they used
to call me in the army, right?

- Mr. Fish and Loaves!
- That's right!

Oh.

Hi.

Boyd!

What's going on?

Is Kenny
in this room right now?

Wha--?

Yes.

Never mind then.

Is he on--?

Mushrooms
he found in the woods.

Right.

You need something?

Uh, it's Fatima.

I think maybe you should
come up to the Colony House.

I should go.

No. Stay?

Please.

Okay.

You remember this is
the first place I met you.

It's funny
how things change.

Do you still see her?

The woman in the kimono?

No.

Do you think it's because
you did what she asked,

so, now,
she leaves you alone?

Sara,
is something going on?

I thought for a while

that the voices
were leaving me alone.

I thought they
were done with me,

but turns out...
they're not.

And what do
they want you to do?

It doesn't make any sense.

They said they want me
to go to the diner,

pour a glass of water
from the pitcher...

take a sip,
and then pour it back in.

And then what?

That's it.

So, how's--
how's that gonna hurt anyone?

I don't know.

But there's
always a consequence.

Sara, it's just water.

- But I'll have drank from it.
- So?

Whatever is wrong with me,

what if it's
like an infection?

What if I pass it on
to someone else

and then the voices
start torturing them?

I don't want anyone
to have to live like this.

Okay.

What if you
just don't do it?

They said,
if I don't do it by midday,

then something bad will happen
to someone that I care about,

and it will keep happening
until I do it.

How many steps?

Uh, 23?

Victor, I want to talk to you
about what happened yesterday.

Nothing happened yesterday.

Victor, can we--

No, Dad, you can't-- you can't
just stop in the middle,

'cause you'll--
you'll mess everything up.

I'm sorry,
but I need you to talk to me.

Whatever it was,

whatever you're afraid of,
you can tell me.

Well, it's--
I think the tree--

I think they moved a little.

You said that you told
yourself it wasn't real.

Did you mean
the yellow suit?

C-Can you tell me
about the man who wore it?

Did-- Was he someone
that hurt-- hurt you?

Look, Victor, please,

whatever it is,

we'll face it together.
You can tell me.

Victor, what--
Victor!

Come. Come with me
and I'll show you.

Hey. Just sit down
and don't go anywhere.

Come on.

Come in.

I told Kenny
not to bother you.

Yeah.

Well, he, uh...

It's a lotta dirt.

Yeah.

You wanna tell me
what's going on?

I'm making a monster.

Here we go.
"The Grand Gooligog

asks Fred about Storywalking.

'How do you choose a point
in the story you wish to see?'"

And?

"Fred replied, 'You have to
create a bookmark.'

Fred discovered that
by leaving a bookmark

somewhere in the story,
he could choose

whatever chapter
he wished to visit."

We have to make a bookmark.

Julie, that doesn't
make any sense.

I know what
you're gonna say.

This is a kid's book
and it's crazy.

That's 'cause it is.

What if that's not
the right way to look at this?

What if Storywalking
existed here first?

The fuck you talking about?

Everything here
is impossible. Okay?

But it's also real.

We're here, right now,
in this impossible place.

What if all of the crazy shit
that happens here,

has been... like,

seeping out into...

My mom. My mom had nightmares
about this place

when she was a little girl.
She didn't realize

that she was dreaming about it
then, but she was. Okay?

Who knows how many other kids
or adults

or fucking
children's book authors

have had dreams about this place
without knowing it?

And what if this author
had a dream

about someone like me
doing what I can do,

he woke up, wrote it down
and called it Storywalking?

But there's literally
thousands of books

that have stories and rules
about traveling through time.

No, no!

Why would this book,

the one with fucking
Fred the Storywalker,

why would this book be the one
that explains anything?

Because,
out of all those books,

this is the one my brother had
with him when we came here.

Okay? And maybe
that means something.

Mm-hmm.

Maybe it's fate. I...

Fate.

Randall, if I'm right,

this could actually be
an instruction manual

on how to save my dad,

and it's all I have.

So, I'm gonna try,
whether you help me or not.

So, what kind of
bookmark do we need?

When you say 'monster'...?

Boyd, I know you're
worried about me,

but you don't have to be.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I hear you saying that.

The problem is, Fatima,
this says something else.

Have you told Ellis
what you're doing in here?

I wasn't trying to
hide it from him.

He-- He has been
so worried lately.

I figured once he was
back from the food run,

once he could see
what I was doing,

it would be
easier to explain.

Okay, great.

Explain it to me?

Where I grew up,
beliefs were very rigid.

They defined you.

But my dad told stories
of all the different faiths.

It used to drive
my mother crazy

because she understood
how dangerous it was.

But he would just smile.

He'd say, "Fatima,
they have it wrong.

They all think
their road is the only way.

Don't they understand that
all roads lead to the Divine?

They simply take different
paths to get there."

Fatima...

Of all the stories
my father would tell,

all the fables and myths...

...there's one story I've been
thinking a lot about lately.

Do you know what
a golem is, Boyd?

Well?

She's, um...

She's making a golem.

A what?

It's a part of
a religious folklore.

It's a giant made of clay.

It protects people.
It's a champion.

She said it's
a symbol of hope.

Maybe, for now,
we just give her some space.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
That's your solution, is...

give her some space?

She's not hurting anybody.

That's not the point.

We have both seen
this place turn people,

change them little by little,

until, one day,

we turn around and...

and the person that...

we knew is-- is gone.

Boyd, that person up there
is not the Fatima that I know.

And I think if you're
being honest with yourself,

that's not
the Fatima you know either.

Hmm.

Can I ask you something?

Yeah.

What the hell
are you doing out here?

I don't know.

I don't know
what I'm doing.

I just keep walking around with
this knot of terror inside me

that feels like
it's going to explode.

And the whole time,

there's this question
and it keeps ringing in my mind.

What am I supposed
to do now?

Jim's gone,

and I keep looking for him,
but he's gone.

I have memories in my head
that belong to other people.

Memories that might have
answers, but I'm terrified

of what it'll cost if--

if I go too far
or if I remember too much.

But if I don't...

I know I'm failing.

What's gonna happen
when Ethan learns

that the Lake of Tears
is not real?

How am I gonna
deal with that?

Hey, everyone?

Let's just take
a little break, okay?

You good?

Yeah, we're fine. Just, uh,

need a little breather.

Okay.

Let's sit down.

I don't know
how to do this alone.

You are not alone.

People keep saying that.

Well, maybe you
should fucking listen.

I don't want to find another
one of those notes

like the one on my nightstand.

You are not going to put me
in the position

of having to explain
to your kids

why I'm still alive
and you're not.

- Donna, I'm--
- No.

You and those kids

are as much my family
as any family I have ever had.

So, from now on,

if anyone is going
to risk their lives

to do something stupid...

that person is gonna be me
and not you.

We clear on that?

I am asking,
are we clear on that?

- We're clear.
- Okay.

Mom!
Come look at this!

Come on.

Looks like a broken wing.

Must have fallen
from a nest or something.

We never see anything here
but crows.

We have to take him with us.

Ethan...

Mom, this is a sign.

If the lake at the settlement

really is the Lake of Tears,
it'll fix him.

That's how we'll know.

We have to take him with us.

I can't imagine
what this is like for her.

At least when I got here,
I found you, you know?

I mean, she lost
the only person she had here.

Yeah.

I can't tell if
she's handling it well

or just hasn't
accepted it yet.

- She prays a lot.
- Yes.

I don't know.
Maybe it helps?

Yeah, that's...

That was always
the one thing about NA

that I just couldn't stand,

the whole giving yourself up
to a higher power.

Mm.

If there were ever proof that
no one's looking out for us,

it's here.

Hey.

We don't see
a lot of you in here.

I-I-I won't be long.

Well, Sara, you can stay
as long as you like.

I-I think it's really nice
that you reopened the diner.

Hm. Well, I thought it'd
be a good way to keep busy.

You used to work here,
right?

Feels like
a long time ago now.

Well, if you ever
want to come back,

I could use the help.

Look, I wasn't here when you...
did what you did.

But who you've become
while I've known you?

That girl deserves a place.

Think about it.

Bakta?

Yeah?

Do you mind dumping
that out for me?

Oh. Sure.

Oh, shit.

Wait, Marielle,
wait up! Wait!

What's happening?

I don't--
I don't know.

I'm coming!

Don't move, okay?

Stay right where you are.
Stay right where you are.

Where does it hurt?

- My-- My arm.
- Okay.

Let me see.
Okay, look at me.

Take a deep breath.
What happened?

I was standing by the edge

and then it felt like
something pushed me.

Okay,
is there anywhere else?

No.

Hey. We done here?

No.

No, not quite.

Because Fatima's
making a mud monster?

Sorry.
I was eavesdropping.

I don't know if I should be
up there stopping her

or if I should be
up there helping her.

Mm.

You know, if it wasn't for what
happened to me and Tabitha,

everything we remembered...

I never would've
even considered

taking those mushrooms.

What's your point?

My point...

is something changed.

Made me realize
I had to do something drastic

before it was too late,

even if everyone around me
thought I was insane.

So maybe the question
you need to ask Fatima

isn't why she's
making that thing.

Maybe the question you need to
ask is why she's making it now.

Jesus.

These things are even
creepier in person.

Jade said they're to
ward off evil spirits.

Heh.
Well, that's, uh....

comforting, I suppose.

Okay, the more food
we collect before dark,

the earlier we leave
in the morning.

So, drop your bags.
Let's go.

Mom, we need to get him
to the lake.

Come on. Let's go.

Julie?

I'm up here!

Got what you asked for.

Got the...

What are you doing?

Last time I tried this,

one of those things
grabbed me by the hair.

That's not
gonna happen again.

Okay.

Ready?

Mm-hmm.

Okay, so,
to create a bookmark,

fold up a piece of paper,

and I bring it with me
when I Storywalk.

Wherever I end up in the past,
whatever "chapter" I'm in,

I just draw the symbol
on the paper

and leave it there.

If this works,
when you pull me out,

the symbol that
I drew in the past

will also be here
on the paper in the present.

You've been waiting
to do that

since we left town,
haven't you?

I have, yeah.

Mm.

Okay.

Let's say this thing works,

let's say you
make it out of this thing

with a functioning bookmark,
how does that help us?

Because,
from that point forward,

whatever point in the story
I want to visit,

like the chapter right
before my father was killed...

I write it here
in the folds,

fold it back up,
cross the threshold,

and that's where
the bookmark'll take me.

You're asking me to watch you
have another seizure.

I'm asking you
for five seconds.

I draw the symbol,
you pull me out.

Randall, if this works,
this changes everything.

Please.

Five seconds.

Five seconds.

Come on.

Be careful.

Yeah.

Hey.
Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Hey, hey.
It's me.

It's me. It's me.
You're okay.

You're okay. You're okay.

No!

Fuck!

It didn't work!
It didn't fucking work!

Victor, come on.

They're in there.

He came in a car
just like the rest of us.

I thought his
yellow suit was funny.

And we thought
he was just like us. We...

We brought him in,
and we made him our friend.

But he wasn't like us.

When everyone died,

when I found mom out
by the bottle tree, I saw him.

He was eating her.

Oh, God. Oh...

So, it's definitely broken.

But we're gonna wait
for the swelling to go down

before we reset the bone.

- Okay.
- Okay?

I know all of this
is a little scary.

It's just another test.
It's why we're here.

God is testing us and allowing
us to prove our faith in Him.

Yeah.

I know this
all sounds silly to you.

No. No, it doesn't.

Do you know
the story of Abraham?

Uh, no. No, I don't.

Oh.

He was a simple man,

with an unshakeable faith
and obedience to God.

One day,
God tested Abraham,

ordering him
to kill his only son,

as a way to prove his faith.

But at the last moment,
God intervened

and offered a ram
to be sacrificed instead.

You see,

God never intended
for Abraham to kill his son.

He simply needed
to know if he would.

Hey.

Okay if Kenny joins us?

Look, I know how strange
this must seem, guys, but...

Fatima, I need to know
why you're doing this.

I told you why
I'm doing this.

Why are you doing it now?

Whatever it is,
I need you to tell me. Please.

Don't let this place
make you afraid to talk to me.

I still feel it.

That thing I carried
inside me, I still feel it.

- Okay.
- Uh, feel it how?

Like we're connected.

Part of me
feels what he feels.

Okay. And this thing that
you're making, it's gonna...

what? Break the connection?

It goes both ways.

Right.

He feels what
I'm feeling, too.

He feels how afraid I am.
He likes it.

But making this,

it makes me feel strong.

It makes me feel less afraid.

Okay.

It's the only way
