towards where

the dog teams are...

The puppy was really scared...

but I wasn't.

Then I seen the meteors flashing

as they hit the atmosphere.

There was ever lots.

Hundreds.

I started hollering, I

got so happy and excited

that I put that puppy down...

...too close

to the huskies.

By the time I saw...

that puppy was already chewed up.

I mean... they f***in'

tore her up.

Oh, sh*t.

Last June, I saw him

walking down the highway,

'cause his ride left him

'cause he was being an a**hole.

So, I go up,

I say hi...

He just f***in' smokes me and I go down.

And I lay there and I'm thinking,

"Guess we're even."

But he just kept on f***ing

kicking me and kicking me,

about his puppy and how

I f***ed everything up.

I told my mom I just got rolled by a drunk.

You know, you shoulda been even.

Hey, bud.

...Hey.

Kinda late, don't ya think?

I don't know.

Sounds like you do.

Whoa, hey, hey,

hey, buddy...

Jed!

Leave it!

Somehow you step

away from me.

I can't get in.

You won't let me in.

Like I'm doing

something wrong...

I'm doing

the best that I can...

Well, why

am I even here?

I came back for you.

I came for Larry!

I didn't ask you

to come...

Larry!

Come here,

Larry!

No, dad!

So as you see,

the positioning of the organs

within the body is

very precise.

It's like a blueprint

for the body.

One of the most amazing

things about the organs,

is that they operate without

us even thinking about it...

Focus!

And so now we've covered all of the organs.

So, as a reminder

the organs are the structure

of the body, comprised

of at least two tissues

working together

for a common purpose.

Larry Sole...

Larry Sole!

What, pray tell, organ am I pointing at?

Mr. Harrister...

That would be the organ

that you're missing.

You know,

there was this guy once,

his name was Larry.

In that mind of his

but he kept it to himself.

He played guitar.

And one day this angel came down to see him

of yours is great,

we're really happy you found it,

but could you like, spread it around a bit

like the other musicians?

Come on...

And Larry just looked at them

and said, "those other musicians

"are looking for the right note.

"I already

found mine."

So, look at the chap,

he's sprouting some fuzz, hm?

Take it easy, eh?

So...

What happened in the Barrenlands?

Larry...

You said that you thought

something happened.

Jeez...

Where do I begin?

So I guess this, uh...

I guess this Dogrib woman

said her husband was missing.

He had told her he was

going out on the land

to bring her some caribou or muskox.

But he never came back.

That woman, she went crazy

waiting for her old man.

Her six kids were starving.
