Hide Your Kids

At the hardware store, Doc and Rebecca talk to the owner and learn that Kit Nelson stole the real Warren's uniform. The owner says he also stole some fishing poles and that there is, somewhat conveniently, only one place where people go fishing nearby.

Also kind of strangely convenient? Even though it's the weekend, Nelson and Dylan appear to be the only people on the lake. After pretending to fish for a while, Nelson orders Dylan into the water. When the kid hesitates, Nelson throws him in and then jumps in after him. "Now I want you to hold me under for as long as you can," Nelson says. "I can't -- you're bigger than me," Dylan says. "Just do it! And don't let me up!" Dylan, his teeth chattering, finally shoves Nelson's head under water. After a few seconds, Nelson pops back up and says, "Your turn."

Rebecca and Doc arrive at the lake some time after Nelson and Dylan have left. The rental guy told them that the two were wet when they left. Rebecca thinks out loud. "They went swimming? So he wants someone to play with?" Doc says a witness in 1958 saw Nelson playing miniature golf with one of his victims. They figure that Nelson is letting his victims pick fun things to do before they die. Doc looks sick at that. "You okay?" Rebecca asks. Of course he's not okay! He's a normal human being unlike the rest of you lot! Anyway, he pretends like he's fine and off they go looking for clues.

1960. Warden James visits Nelson in the infirmary with a wheelchair and takes him for a little ride through the prison. After he's wheeled Nelson a good distance from the infirmary, he brings up the reason for their meeting. Nelson's father wants to visit him. At hearing this, Nelson looks panicked. He doesn't want to see his father. In fact, his father's not even on his list of approved visitors. Warden James magnanimously volunteers to amend the list, saying they both served two tours in the war. After that, he makes Nelson get out of the chair, then wheels it away, making Nelson hobble all the way back to the infirmary on his own.
