When he finds himself sacked from his job and dumped by his lover, Tom realizes he has no one left to turn to and does something he hasn’t thought about doing for 15 years – he heads home. Tom struggles to understand his father’s illness – physically normal and dominating, he is a man locked in a world of confused memories and immature actions. Needing a few hours away, when Sam is asleep one night, Tom heads out to the local pub. Flirting with Mandy, the bar maid, he gets up to his old tricks.

Tom’s hometown was the site for a huge institution for the mentally disabled. Pretty much everyone who lived in the town was linked to the asylum, and Tom discovers Metzler was a doctor within the unit. Wanting to know more, Tom uses some of his contacts to trace Wendy, Sam’s old assistant. Wendy clearly knows more than she’s letting on. Tom gets a ray of hope when Sam talks about the people from a charity event as though he remembers them clearly, and Tom uses the opportunity to dig deeper.
