Night Terror: Season 2: Ep 006:  Yuppo Knows


Remember playing hide and go seek as a child, watching silently from that special place as they walked right by you never realizing that you were so close that you could reach out and touch them?  There's one little boy who's learned how to hide so well that no one knows he's there - even when he's standing right in front of them - especially his mother.  She's can't see him, but he always sees her.

Madness:  Ep 001

Four old friends on an annual weekend camping trip spend their days fishing and nights catching up around the campfire.  It becomes glaringly obvious that their glory days are fading behind them as family ties, failing business ventures, and corporate woes slowly force them apart.  But the bonds of friendship will be shattered completely when the group's subtle personality quirks are magnified beyond measure.  Worry turns to outright paranoia, optimism to lunacy, detachment to sociopathy, and jealousy to psychopathic rage.

Which is worse?
What about your life is going along nicely only to be suddenly mixed up, muddled and basically turned inside out when it takes an unexpected turn... such as discovering that you never liked your mother before you ever met her?  Want to know more?  (Clue:  Talk to Tala.)
What about closing your eyes, knowing you're in control, then opening them a moment later to discover that you're really not?  (Clue:  Ask Vaughn)
What about being offered something and being *this* close to getting it... and then are denied it?  (Clue: Anyone seen Siren and Trevor?  I bet they'd know.)
