The Trial of Hiram McDaniels] Unknown

Synopsis

Things fall apart.

Plot Developments

It is revealed that former Intern Maureen is leading the army of Strangers (which she speculates is from a portal that leads to Hell), and that Chad is the boss of the operation.

Cecil also figures out that Chad is Chad Bowinger, the intern who went into the Used and Discount Sporting Goods Store (which was a front for the World Government) and didn't return for weeks.

Maureen let Michelle (from Dark Owl Records) touch and see the strangers. This lets us know it is possible to avoid becoming a breathing stranger if approached by one up close, but only if someone protects you from them. Michelle also explains that the strangers don't move much because they are in so much pain for so long from the transformation into a stranger.

It is also made apparent that the Sheriff (and by extension, the entire Secret Police) knows little about the strangers.
