They look like us and they act like us. But they are not us. And one of them is missing. Holiday? Whoa, slow down, kiddo. Mom, is Holiday home yet? She didn't get on the bus. She got home a few minutes ago. Said she wanted to clear her head. Did something happen? Cyrus?

Dr. Farber, this is how... This is Jane Doe on the roof. Better get used to that since I don't know who I am anymore. If I ever knew. I'm realizing I'll never be able to share these recordings with you anyway. Mom and Dad hired you to be my therapist. If they're lying to me, then you probably are too. Maybe you're just doing all this to spy on me. Paul, you okay if I come out here? No! Go away! Unless you're ready to tell me the truth. I am. I'll tell you everything.

Where did you go after school? I was waiting for you by the buses. I walked to the hospital. The hospital? Are you sick? Are you going to answer my question or not? Because I just checked my medical records. Mom signed me in as a Jane Doe. You hacked into the hospital computer? Something's going on, Cyrus. Either you tell me, or- We pulled you out of the bay. We were on a whale-watching trip. Yeah, I know.

The water was choppy. I fell off the side of the boat and hit my head. You didn't fall off our boat. What do you mean? Birdie was the one who fell in, and while she was in the water, she saw you... floating. But how did I... We don't know. Mom said it was a miracle you were alive. We pulled you into the boat and took you to the hospital and... And what? And the next thing I knew...

Mom and Dad were saying you were gonna be my sister. They said we should let you believe you'd always been with us. But you didn't know me. I was a total stranger. Yeah. We thought it would take some time to adjust, but really? It kinda didn't. It just felt like you'd always been there. I wanted to tell you the truth so many times. Not just the first day in the hospital, but every day since. And...

Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad what? Every time I asked them questions about you, where you came from, how you ended up in the water, they shut me down. They said it was better this way. Better than what? I don't know. That's why I have this binder. Since we first brought you home, I've been making notes on all the weird stuff Mom and Dad have said and done. News clippings about Mom's old job at the lab, Dad's military base.

What do those things have to do with me? I don't know, but I definitely think there's more to your story than anyone's saying. Like, the marking you used to have on your left hand. You mean the scar? There was something else on there when we found you. It was like... An infinity symbol. From that first day, I got the sense mom and dad were hiding something. It's all very fascinating. So, I'm a mystery for you to solve. Might as well put me under your microscope.

Just a girl with no memory he found floating in the water. You're a lot more than that, Halls. Wherever you came from, you're my sister. I'm just trying to make sure it stays that way. Oh jeez, you're not crying, are you? No, I... It doesn't make sense. Why would Mom and Dad lie? I'll help you. I'll help you find out everything. This binder has so much in it. I don't even know where to start. Why don't you start by telling your father and me what you two are up to? We're waiting.

I'm Ryan Shanahan, and I play Badger in six minutes. For more great adventures, go to GZMShows.com. Shh. It's starting. GZM Shows.
