Straw Man
In Chapter Three: Fionn Rafferty is being held by a man hiding in the family barn. He has given the man water and wants to help with the wound bleeding through a sleeve of the man’s anorak, but is refused; and the stranger assures Fionn he’ll be on his way when the rain stops. The gardai (policemen) arrive and, with Fionn’s father, come to check for Mick Bellaghey, a wanted man who just recently escaped capture at a farm in the next town. Fionn is shocked the man lied about his name and, even moreso, that "Mick" has requested transport to a central hospital in the area’s largest hospital, and plans to take Fionn as cover.

Abandoned Wishes Ep1
A video monitor switches on to show a square windowless room. The picture is glitchy, a wave of grainy fuzz passing upward on the screen every thirty to forty-five seconds. In the center of the room is a square table and a chair. There is a bottle of sparkling water on the center of the table. The room is gray. The table is gray. The chair is gray.
