I can assure you that all our tests

are done in a controlled...

child-friendly environment.

We have experience

with cases like yours.

Night terrors, hallucinations,

odd obsessions.

Our approach is actually very gentle

compared to standard treatments.

I understand your concerns,

but you don't have to worry at all.

Mom, help me pack?

Yeah.

It's two days.

Do you want your ripped jeans

or your regular ones?

- What's wrong?

- Mom, it's them.

- What?

- It's the skin people from my dream.

- Honey, you need to stop this.

- No, you have to listen to me.

What's going on?

He's not human.

- That's not his real face.

- For Chrissake.

Shut up, Lon.

You actually hope I'm crazy,

just so you can get me out of here.

Mom, you have to believe me.

- Lon, maybe this...

- Can't you see he's gotten worse?

You're gonna go with them right now.

Or, I swear to god,

I will drag you down the stairs myself.

It's one weekend, kiddo.

If you don't like it,

then I'll come get you.

I promise.

Okay, I'll go.

- I love you, mom.

- I love you too.

I'm just gonna get my toothbrush.

- He's just getting his things.

- He's trying to escape.

Escape?

Jake?

Jake?

Chrissake.

Jake? Jake!

Jake!

- Jake!

- Get him.

- Come back here!

- Don't worry.

Toby will get him down safely.

Stop running.

- Mom? You okay?

- Where are you?

You can't just run

away like that, Jake.

- Please come home.

- Sorry, I can't.

Right now.

Jake?

I'll call you later.

Love you, mom.

Greetings, traveler.

Please enter destination.

One, nine.

One, nine, one, nine.

Mid-world.

Mid-world.

One-way destination.

Let me go!

Stop!

What?

Whoa.

Okay.

This is good.

It's all real.

New candidate.

Female, age 11.

Looks good.

Arriving!

Welcome back, sir.

Find yourself a face, rat boy.

You're in my house.

How was your trip?

Fine. Do we have any new leads?

Got it.

What have you got?

These are all showing promise.

Our trackers are going out to them

as we speak.

There's been a serious breach of...

I'm not fantastic at waiting.

Unauthorized crossing, sir.

One of the old portals

on keystone earth.

Has that ever happened?

Find me a portal close by.

- Love your mask.

- Sir?

Choose a pretty face

and the world is your oyster.

Aligning, sir.

Who are you?

It's you.

I'm...

I'm Jake.

Jake...

Jake chambers.

I dreamt about you.

Please.

Here.

Look.

You're a gunslinger, right?

There are no gunslingers.

Not anymore.

- But I saw you.

- Your dreams deceived you, boy.

Told you what you want to hear.

I came a long way to find you.

From another world!

Have a nice trip back.

Hey. Wait!

Dude, come on.

Look, I saw you.

There was a battlefield,
