2. The Screaming Woman
"When you're living on a street like I'm living on, you just don't think awful things are going to happen. Like shooting, or stabbing, or burying people under the ground, practically in your back yard. And when it does happen, you don't believe it."

3. The Fog Horn
The sea is full of ancient wonders, perhaps even beyond human understanding. And once a year, the sounds of a fog horn reach them...

4. The Lake
Even after years away from the beaches of his childhood, the memories of a young man still remain when he returns.

6. Homecoming
Everyone's coming for All Hallow's Eve, which only serves to remind Timothy how much he feels like the family's black sheep.

7. Jack-in-the-Box

8. The Rocket Man
Doug's father is a Rocket Man, home at last after a three-month trip. Turns out that working in space isn't as wonderful as it seems, and yet it keeps calling him back.
