Jude reviews his backlog of voicemails, one of which is from a deceased bandmate and another of which is from his father’s nurse, Arlene, informing him that Martin has been unconscious for 36 hours and will likely die. Jude goes downstairs and sees the ghost of Bammy’s twin, Ruth. Feeling he has failed too many people, he futilely tries to warn Ruth of her abduction. However, he is interrupted by his dog Angus, and the ghost disappears as if whisked away by a giant hand.
