Charlie Keys:
What was wrong with Dad?

Amelia Keys:
He had a... He had a brain disorder. Made him believe certain things.

Charlie Keys:
What kind of things?

Amelia Keys:
Oh, he's dead now, Charlie. Do you really want to remember this part of him?

Charlie Keys:
I want whatever I can get.

Amelia Keys:
He believed he'd been taken... by aliens. Lots of times.

Charlie Keys:
And the men? The people we were hiding from?

Amelia Keys:
Well, I guess they believed that, too.

Charlie Keys:
How about you?

Amelia Keys:
I don't know, sweetie. I don't know what I believe. Your dad said once they were like his guardian angels.

Charlie Keys:
He thought they were protecting him?

Amelia Keys:
No, no. He thought they wanted him for something. He believed that they had saved him from dying in Vietnam. I think, in the end, he thought they were coming after you.

Charlie Keys:
They have come for me. More than once. That's why he screamed the last time he saw me. He could see that they were already taking me. If you were eight, yeah, maybe this would scare you. But you know what, Mom? None of this scares me anymore. Now it just makes me mad. If they come for me again, I'm not going without a fight. And if that lands me in some hospital room, sitting, staring out some window, screaming, then that's what it does.
