to see us in Heaven.

but my happy and mostly secure world

had just been flipped over.

-And there were dark things there.

-Judgment Day is here.

Very dark things.

We've been chosen by God.

And my little boy's mind

just couldn't take it.

Adam! Fenton!

Up and at'em, boys!

Morning, kiddo.

Hey, come on,

lazybones. It's late.

We overslept.

Let's go.

Snap to it and

get dressed. I gotta get to work.

Drop you guys off on the way.

What's wrong with you?

Nothing.

Hey, let me have a bite of that.

None of us mentioned it.

It was only a dream, a nightmare.

Nothing that crazy could be real.

Everything was okay,

just like before.

Have a good day at school, boys.

And remember not to tell anyone.

We won't, Dad. Bye.

Okay, now. I want you all to copy

down this sentence. We're gonna go

through the structure.

"The girl in

the blue dress..."

I refused to believe it.

-"walked..."

-That next week was a dream too.

"her...

brown dog."

Like when Dad started bringing

home the "magical" weapons.

He was on his way to work...

when God called to him.

Be careful.

I still can't understand

what these gloves are for though.

Just a long, long dream.

I want you to write this down at the

Top of your pages in big letters.

Boys! Boys, look at this.

We got them all.

It won't be long now.

The angel came again

last night and told me

that God will be sending us

a list of the first 7 demons soon.

It wasn't real.

It couldn't be.

I just had to wait it out.

-Come over here a minute, Fenton.

-I'm washing dishes.

That can wait. Come here.

I want to talk to you.

I know you've had some trouble

adjusting to everything.

And I'm sorry.

But God has willed this

and we must obey God.

Maybe you just dreamed it.

I didn't dream it. I wouldn't

make up something like that, son.

Maybe...

Maybe you're not

right in the head.

It happened, Fenton.

It's true.

You'll see that soon.

That's what I wanted to talk

to you about. I got the first list.

The angel came to him

while he was at work.

Dad,

-these are people's names.

-That's right.

And they'll look

like people too.

But they're not.

The angel said

when I lay my hands on them

I'll reveal them

for what they truly are.

That's what the gloves are for.

I get them and bring them

back here with the gloves on,

and once they're back here, I take

the gloves off and reveal them.

You'll see.

Then you'll believe.

Does anyone know

what this word means?

Do you remember

what this word means?

The dream had finally ended.

It was all real.

And I had to stop him.

The obvious answer was to tell

someone what he was planning.

But I couldn't do that.

I loved him even

if he had gone crazy.
