National Emergency is a psychological horror audio drama that explores disturbing themes and intense moments. Some content may be unsettling for some listeners. Listener's discretion is advised. The Midnight Mystery presents National Emergency, season one, episode eight, The Forest. Come on, move, move, move.
How far? 30 minutes. Maybe less if I push.
Chapter 4: How does the conversation shift towards the concept of the forest as a refuge?
What happened? Did they say what happened? No details. Just incident at 847 Maple Street. Could mean anything. Yeah. That's what worries me. I wanted to bring her with us.
Chapter 5: What inconsistencies arise in Jenkins' story during the investigation?
I wasn't bringing Lisa. She's already been through enough. I know. You made the right call. I just... I hope she's okay. I should have had a unit follow her home. You couldn't have known something would happen.
Chapter 6: How does Owen justify his decision to enter the forest?
I'm a detective. It's my job to know. The emergencies are accelerating. What do you mean? Fifteen months ago, 200 incidents per week globally. Last week, over 1,500. Jesus. Survival rate's dropping, too.
Chapter 7: What shocking revelation does Lisa uncover about the survivors?
Started at 90%. Now it's 65. There's no pattern to them. No way to predict when they'll happen. No. There isn't.
Chapter 8: What final decisions are made regarding Owen's journey into the forest?
So what are we supposed to do? Just wait for the next one? We survive. It's what we do. We follow the instructions and we survive. Why are you helping me? What? You could have arrested me after the bus. Let the feds take me. But you didn't. You've been protecting me. Standing between me and Shen. Why? It's not the time for this. I need to know. You still don't remember me.
You remember Crescent Creek? The old swimming hole? Yeah. I went there as a kid. Summer of 98. I was there alone. Some high schoolers showed up. Decided it'd be fun to see how long I could hold my breath. They held me under. I was drowning. Then someone pulled them off. Started swinging. Broke one of the kid's nose. Pulled me out and made sure I could breathe. That was you. Yeah.
You were sitting on the bank, soaking wet. I asked if you were okay. You nodded and left. I was embarrassed. Didn't want anyone to know. I went home that day and told my parents I fell. Didn't tell anyone what really happened. But I thought about you. The kid who didn't even know my name, but fought for me anyway. I didn't even remember until now. You just did what was right. So were you.
There.
Oh, God. Is she inside? She better be.
Move! Out of my way!
Lisa! Thank God!
They're here.
Are you okay? Are you hurt? I'm fine. We got here as fast as we could.
