-Shoemacher. -(glass shattering)

Hey, taxi!

Fort Reed, Kansas.

You'll never guess who I saw yesterday.

Charlie?

What do you want?

What do I... want? I...

My mom said you were in Fort Reed.

Yep. The lovely Dew Drop Inn.

You weren't gonna tell me?

Nope.

Oh! Wait a sec.

It's in the parking lot. I washed it a few days ago,

but it's dirty again.

-You had my truck? -Who did you think had it?

I'm a little busy, so I'll see you later.

Whoa! Hey, Charlie. What is up with you?

Look, I didn't know what happened to you after the cabin.

I didn't know if you were alive or dead.

I'm not dead. Clearly, I'm fine.

What are you doing in Fort Reed?

Why were you buying a gun?

Randy: What's goin' on out there?

Who's this?

You want me to take care of him for you?

"Take care of me"? Who are you?

You know what? You need to go. You need to go.

What? Like, leave?

-Now? -Leave. Go back to whatever trailer park

-or mechanical bull is expecting you. -Whoa

-Hey! -Charlie: Go.

Randy: I'll call you!

-Who was that? -That was Randy.

He's local.

Look, Holden, it's really sweet you looked me up and all,

and hey, our little road trip was fun.

I mean, before the shooting started,

I had a legit good time with you, Holden.

Yeah, and I had a great time with you too, but--

But it was a giant mistake

to look you up in the first place.

And if you haven't realized that already,

you will.

-(knocking) -Charlie, wait! I--

(knocking)

(whispers) Just go, Holden.

Luke: So, you've been having these nightmares?

Holden: Ever since I came out of the coma.

I always wind up in the woods near where I crashed my bike.

These visions or whatever...

they've been getting worse ever since

we were at Hollow Sky with Frost.

When you went into the Matrix?

Just feeling I broke something when I was in there.

Broke something? Like what?

That's what I'm trying to find out.

So, um...

what's with the compass?

Jack Sparrow have a yard sale?

The compass is connected to the Realm.

It used to just spin around.

I though it was busted, but after Hollow Sky...

it just started pointing one direction.

I don't know. Maybe it's like a weird magnetic thing.

Because, like, compasses work off the Earth's magnetic field.

-I know how magnets work, Luke. -So maybe it's like buried treasure.

It's not treasure, all right? My nightmares are trying

to... tell me... something.

I-- wait. Wait a minute.

Okay.

Well, what's Willa's take?
