The summer I was
8 years old,

:02:28
5 hours disappeared
from my life.

:02:31
5 hours.
:02:33
Lost.
:02:34
Gone without a trace.
:02:44
Last thing I remember I was
sitting on the bench...

:02:46
at my Little League game.
:02:49
It started to rain.
:02:52
What happened after that
remains a pitch black void.

:02:56
Brian?
:02:57
Brian?
:03:00
You, dork.
:03:01
What the heck are
you doing in there?

:03:05
Hey.
:03:06
You're bleeding.
:03:17
Whew! It is
terrible out there.

:03:20
Mom!
:03:21
Hello, sweetheart.
What happened to you?

:03:24
Brian got a bloody nose
hiding in the cellar.

:03:26
Whatever on Earth were
you doing down there?

:03:29
Are you okay, sweetheart?
You poor little baby.

:03:33
They had me cooped up all
night in that awful mailroom.

:03:36
I didn't even know it was
raining till I got off work.

:03:39
Hold still.
:03:40
Ow.
:03:41
Did one of the other moms
give you a ride home?

:03:43
-I'm going to bed.
-I hope you're happy.

:03:47
I knew he'd get hurt playing
sports out there in the field.

:03:50
You know, when I was a kid, I wasn't
exactly a star player either.

:03:54
But at least I gave it my all,
I wasn't a quitter.

:03:57
Sorry, Dad.
