Miss Cole?

Miss Cole, do you know where you're going?

Oh, my God, there's so many tools. I can't keep up.

That doesn't matter. Those names.

It doesn't. It doesn't, even, it doesn't...

Okay. Well... it might because of

-M.E.'s office, this is Jane. - Hi. I'm calling to check

on the status of a report. Last name Cole.

Cole. Let's see here. First name of the deceased.

Eliza, Elizabeth.

Right and her former address of residence?

344 Hollow View Road.

And what's your relationship to the deceased, ma'am?

-I'm her daughter. -Okay, and your name is?

Samantha Cole.

Of course. Okay.

Okay, and the last four digits of her social?

- What? - What are the last four digits

of her Social Security number, Miss Cole?

-Ma'am, I need to verify you're next of kin, ma'am. -

Sorry. Hang on.

Um, 1-3-9-8.

Okay. Okay. Thank you.

So we need to do follow up on some of the findings before we make a final report.

-What does that mean? -The examiner noted some unusual levels in her system.

We need to run additional tests before we make a determination.

Unusual levels of what?

You can discuss that with the examiner, ma'am.

Okay. Can I speak with the examiner?

She's not available at the moment, I'm afraid.

Well, then I'd like to know what kind of tests you're doing.

I'm not able to discuss that, ma'am.

Why is that?

Like I said, ma'am, you need to discuss that with the examiner.

Can you have her call me back, please?

I'll give her the message.

Can I help you?

- Can I come through here? - No.

Noah, it's Sam.

It's Sam Cole.

Yeah.

Left you a message.

Phones don't work.

Huh.

I, um

just wanted to thank you.

For dealing with all that.

You seen Clem?

The dog.

They said you let her out when you found her.

No.

No, you didn't find her or no, you didn't let her out?

I haven't seen the dog.

Okay.

Well, if you do...

Why'd you check on her?

She didn't put out the garbage.

When?

Friday.

You bury her yet?

No.

The time, well, the time, we just changed the whole...

- Oh, yeah. Okay. - Okay.

Hello.

- Is this the, uh, Cole residence? -Yep.

Hi. Hello. My name is Pamela with NEA Life Insurance.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss.

-What? -I'm so sorry to hear about Mrs. Cole.

Uh, hello?

I can't talk right now. Sorry.

Once, once upon a time,

there was a mouse named Maude.

And then he saw something...

Clem.

Clementine!

Clem?

Come here girl.

Shit's weird, Jo.

I can't find her ring anywhere.

The lawn mower is not in the barn.

Everything seems off,

in some way or another.

I don't know.

He's either a creep or an idiot.

He acted like he didn't even remember me.

I mean, not much.

We didn't play together or anything.

He was always odd.

Maybe just shy.

Our families were always friendly.

We're the only ones up here.

- - It's a long story.

She has my shit everywhere.

Like I'm five years old still.

It's been almost a year.

No, since I've been back.

He died two summers ago.

Well, I should've been here.

It's so quiet.

No wonder she couldn't think straight.

- -Nothing, I don't know.

I just think she's been living in the past this whole time.

Even before, when I was a little kid.

Damn straight. I was a treat.

I don't know.

Pretending, distracting herself.

I'll know more tomorrow. They have to tell me what they're looking for.

Nah, I'm okay.

Thanks.

I should do this on my own.

Whatever "this" is.

Nothing.

Bernard snuck up on me.

You ever sure you dreamed something before

exactly as it's happening now?

Dreamt? Fine, dreamt.
