I think I got another one!

Well, it would’ve been six fish, if -

Did you teach Jesse and Miles to fish?

What about Thomas?

Question 5

ANGUS: Miles told you about Thomas? Wow.

Answer 5

Well, did you? Teach him how to fish?

I know what that feels like. I miss my father every day.

Question 7

ANGUS: ‘Course you do.

Answer 7

Mr. Angus, I had this idea.

If I shared the water with Mother and Nana, we’d always be there for each other.

But if my father had known about the water, we would never have had to say goodbye, ever.

He isn’t on a train.

I’m sure he’s in the woods.
