"facing the blind, deaf stone alone

"with nothing to help you

but your hands and your own head."

There's a big wave coming!

Rainey, I'm freezing!

Could you put your arms around me?

The Navy bulldozed and abandoned this

base down there,

and all that's left is this huge grid

of concrete foundations, or slabs.

- Man, you would dig the Slabs.

- You would like it. You would like it.

- If you're on the road still.

- You'd love it.

Fellow travelers.

Just living on the cheap under the sun.

Can't beat it.

Sounds good.

If you come, I'll make you a proper hat.

- Promise?

- I swear to God.

Oh, baby. Baby.

- Stop it. Wait.

- Yeah.

- Oh, yes.

- Okay.

Let me turn off the light.

- He reminded me of...

- I know.

Such is the way of the world

You can never know

Just where to put all your faith

And how will it grow?

Gonna rise up

Burning back holes in dark memories

Gonna rise up

Turning mistakes into gold

I mean, you're really good.

I mean, you're like

any apple I've ever had.

I'm not Superman, I'm Supertramp.

You're Superapple.

You're so tasty.

You're so organic, so natural.

You're the apple of my eye.

Hey! Such is the passage of time

Too fast to fold

And suddenly swallowed by signs

Lo and behold

Gonna rise up

Find my direction magnetically

Gonna rise up

Throw down my ace in the hole

In early September, Mom and Dad

got a call from the Annandale police

notifying them that

Chris' abandoned car

had been identified

by the Arizona Highway Patrol.

A group of rare flower hunters

stumbled upon it in the desert.

There were no signs that

Chris had intended to return to it.

But there wasn't

any evidence of struggle, either.

The police thought

Chris had chosen to leave it behind

and not that it was taken from him.

The initial comfort

that gave Mom and Dad quickly turned

to the realization that Chris

was actually trying not to be found.

Strong.

You can do anything.

You can go anywhere.

Money, power is an illusion.

It's up here.

You can be here.

Me and you.

One, two. No, no, no.

Two,

three...

Don't be shy with it. Get it moving there.

That's good.

- That's your speed right here.

- Right.

You go too fast,

you won't get all the wheat.

That's it, straight line, straight line,

little straighter.

See how you're bearing? Just a little

straighter. Now you're a combiner.

Wow, look at this view!

But keep your eye on the wheat, here.

Make sure you're cutting it.

You can look back here and see

how much is coming out, all right.

- How do you feel?

- I feel great.

Okay, keep it straight. God bless you.

Make yourself some money, my friend.

I'll see you in a little bit.

Okay.

Wayne. Where you going?
