Eric [Josh Pence] is lethargic and lost; he runs obsessively, in all weather. A voice mail from Melissa Rauch asks him to pick up his things from Gretchen’s apartment.
On a wind-swept beach we meet Rachel Spencer Grammer, an elementary school teacher. She takes a train into the city to go into a church, where the notice board announces a memorial service for Robert J. Austin.
