| 0:11.0 | And Bob Frisbee, husband, father, lifelong pilot, feels something snap. |
| 0:18.0 | He wakes in a room he doesn't recognize. |
| 0:22.1 | No windows. |
| 0:23.4 | A door with no handle. |
| 0:25.4 | Light with no source. |
| 0:27.6 | And seated across a carved antique table is a man with a file, an impossibly thick file, |
