You know him?

No, no he ran a garage

in town.

And I heard he was

a really nice guy.

But he wasn't racing,

he was there...

Somebody broke

into the garage.

We figure Jason surprised

him and he gave chase.

Any suspects?

No, I don't know.

Jason's wife said there was

a real pissed off customer

last week,

almost put his fist

through a window.

So we're trying to track

him down but...

Why?

Do you remember what the

make of the other truck was?

No.

But this Jason...

I mean, he's the father of

the girl that I saved

and the same day

as his accident,

she stops by my house.

You know that

I'm not spiritual.

For some reason I believe

that I returned

to look out after this girl.

And what makes her

so special?

I don't know! It's just...

Don, if you feel that you

returned to save this girl

then maybe that's exactly

what you were meant to do.

Yeah, and sometimes a cigar

is just a cigar.

I think I got a pretty good

handle on how

Jason ran things.

Just might need some help

entering work orders.

Cops have any luck

finding the a**hole that

smashed the window?

Shouldn't be so hard

to track this guy down.

It's okay, we'll find him.

You hang in there, and I'll

let you get back at it.

See ya later, kiddo.

Bye Uncle Kit.

Can I help you

with anything?

Uh, no...

uh...

Uh, yeah...

maybe.

Do you have any

scientific case studies

on maybe deja vu, patterns...

recurring patterns?

Oh, um... actually.

This is new.

Haven't read it but I believe

it's sort of in the vein

of what you're talking about.

Feel free to take

your time,

my daughter can

ring you through.

You took off pretty fast

yesterday.

You knew that saw was

going to fall, didn't you?

No.

You still in the

raking business?

I could use some help.

I thought you said

no soliciting.

I said "no soliticing"

'Kay.

That's pretty advanced math

you're doing there.

What are you, 12?

13?

Uh... 17.385.

17 rounded down.

Took off pretty

fast yesterday.

We were lucky

you were there.

Just next time,

ask before you leave.

Uh-huh.

Oh, uh... stack them

brand side out.

Thanks.

"Can't shake this feeling.

What triggered it?

Keeps replaying through

my mind like an old memory.

The bridge will collapse at

12:
15 on November 6th.

Midnight."

Now, let's see...

Andy Andreasen...

...design standards?

Huh. Failed inspections.

Can't build a load that long.

Where is it?

Ah, here we go.

Hold it right there!

Donovan?

Hey, hey Finn!

Hey.

What the hell are you doing?

I didn't want to wake you,

I just wanted to...

...borrow your rake!

Borrow a rake?

Don't tell me you've

been drinking.

No, no I don't drink

and drive.

Well what're you doing breaking
