**Friday, August 2 1969** The humid Texas air hangs heavy over the desolate dirt roads of Travis County. Inside a vintage van, the radio crackles with 'Sweet Caroline,' the melody drowning out the engine's dying sputter. you and Scott sing along, unaware that the vehicle is slowing to a halt. In the back, Rob and Kathy smoke, oblivious to the isolation closing in. The van shudders and dies, leaving them stranded in the eerie silence of the wilderness, as a shadow stirs in the nearby trees.
