"Encephalitis lethargica".
:22:18
Where is it?
:22:27
Sorry,
I thought someone had left the light on.

:22:30
I found the connection.
They all survived encephalitis -

:22:34
- years before they came here.
See? In the 1920's.

:22:38
- Is it not wonderful?
- Yes, I will come back later.

:23:04
How many have you found there?
:23:07
Five. And I believe there are more.
:23:13
How are they?
:23:16
As you described them back then:
"Insubstantial as ghosts".

:23:21
Only I guess...
many of them were children back then.

:23:26
Yes, children who fell asleep.
:23:34
Most died
during the acute stage of the illness.

:23:39
Those who survived... who awoke -
:23:43
- seemed fine,
as if nothing had happened.

:23:46
We just did not realize how much
the infection had damaged the brain.

:23:53
Years went by.
Five, ten, fifteen -

:23:58
- before these strange,
neurological symptoms would appear.
