His book nook — that’s what he calls this spot.

Is this where it happened?

I was surprised. He gets up at 4 am and is always in bed by 8:30.

Tell me exactly what transpired.

We’d just finished Fargo’s Season Five, Episode Nine. It was 8:45. He said: We’ve got to watch the last episode.

I was shocked.

How did he look?

Committed.

So, what did he do when Fargo was over?

This is what’s so strange. He pulled the nook light cord. I didn’t think it even had a bulb.

Did you find him here this morning?

Sound asleep.
