Uh, yeah, uh...

I-I'll be right over.

Okay, thanks.

Luke's in the hospital.

Try not to worry, honey.

You know boys,

it's probably just

a couple of stitches.

The police officer,

Kurowski, or Kowalski,

or something,

said that Luke had

been in an accident.

Sergeant!

- Ms. Quinn?

- Yes.

I'm sergeant Kurlanski,

we spoke on the phone.

Where's my son?

I want to see my son.

There's been an accident.

I need to speak with you...

what happened to Luke?

Mrs. Quinn, I need to

speak with you alone.

Please.

Excuse me,

are-are you a friend

of the family's?

Yes.

Everybody did all they could.

I'm-I'm very sorry,

but it was too late.

I can have someone

take you home, Ms. Quinn...

no, I want to see my son.

We can handle all of

the arrangements...

I want to see my son.

I want to see my son!

I'll see to it.

I want to se my...

Excuse me.

She would like to see her son.

Yes. Of course.

Who are you?

This is Josh Camden.

He's the one who pulled

your son from the water.

I'm so sorry.

I did everything I could.

I tried. I'm so sorry.

Thank you.

This way, please.

Please come with me?

Shh...

No!

No...

Ms. Quinn...

no! No!

Ms. Quinn, let me

take you home.

Let him go. Let him go...

Let him go. Please...

Shh...

Let me take you home.

I wish to God

you could have lived, kid.

What happened?

Where am I?

Oh, sweetie.

Are you okay?

What the heck happened?

I'm not sure.

He put his hand

on the boy's shoulder,

- and the boy came back to life.

- Is that true?

I-I didn't do anything.

Well, you must have

done something.

The boy's alive.

What's going on?

What did you say to him?

I-I-I...

I just said

that I wished he could live.

No, I distinctly heard you say

"God" in there somewhere.

Maybe I did, I don't know.

Look,

I've been on the force

for over 16 years,

I've seen a lot of

really strange things,

but this is the first time

I've ever seen anyone

rise from the dead.

Thank you for saving my son.

Honestly,

I-I didn't do anything...

thank you.

I didn't do anything.

I really didn't.

Yes. Yes, you did!

You did, Josh.

You brought that boy

back to life.

I saw it.

We all saw it.

It's a miracle.

It's a miracle, folks.

We're coming to you today live

from the picturesque Hamlet

of Bethany, Wisconsin,

where a young boy

had a terrifying

brush with death.

The boy, Luke Quinn,

was unresponsive

for over an hour

and was pronounced dead

by doctors here

at Bethany Memorial Hospital.

The boy was declared dead

at 9:
47 A.M., but...

Delia, it's Jack.

Meet me at Dante's now.

...and the boy

regained consciousness.

You heard it here, folks.

He came back to life.

The accident occurred

at Fryman lake

just outside of Bethany.

The boy became trapped

under a fallen tree branch

and was submerged underwater

for several minutes.

We caught up

with the boy's mother,

Sarah Quinn of Bethany,

shortly after her son's

release from the hospital.

Yeah, I don't know,

I mean, it's, um...

It's a miracle.

I don't know.

That's all you can call it,

a miracle.

This is a big story.

I can feel it in my gut.

Excuse me,

can we get another

rye and ginger,

and a Martini, extra olives,

for the lady, please?

Thank you.

There's no such thing

as miracles, Jack.

How many times

have we seen a guy

raise a kid from the dead?

And right before easter?

Are you seriously asking me

to cover this?

It's bogus!

No, no, it's a gift, Delia,

and it's exactly

the kind of piece

the chairman loves.

It's his favorite meal,

schmaltz on wonder bread.

Oh, Jack...

and if the raising the dead

angle isn't enough,

the guy's initials are "J.C."

And get this, he's a carpenter.

- A carpenter?

- Mm-hmm.

And the kid's name is Luke.

So?

So last I checked...

chicken for me, thank you.

Last time I checked,

it was biblical.

Oh...

And if this whole thing
