MATTHEW SAMPSON could be seen hiking through the woods until he reached Wood’s Edge Park.
VOLUNTEER 1, who was in the park at the time the man emerged from the woods, notices him put his hands on his hips and take a deep breath in before the man notices them. “Hey, you’re a person,” he says in greeting. He continues to walk up to the distinctive statue the park was known for. He patted it. “Okay, okay, cool. Looks like the town I know. But how would I really actually know. Right? Could be another universe. Could be another universe,” he mumbled to himself.
Abruptly, he takes off at a run into town.
MATTHEW SAMPSON doesn’t stop running until he finds a newspaper, which he takes out of
RYAN COMLEY’S hand. “New year, but how do I know that the ball drop I missed is the right one?” He asked aloud, though it was more of a rhetorical question. “Then again, would two universes have lame ball drops? I’d hope not.”
MILO WATNEY walks out from a shop nearby and recognizes him immediately. They explain that he’s been a missing person since late December and they need to bring him to the station. The more they talk to him the more they become concerned that they ought to have brought him to see medical attention first.
