doctors were beginning to remove the bandages from his
head. “Hello, Detective Carlson. I guess we’re going to
finally see what kind of damage has occurred to my face. I
hope I haven’t ended up looking like Quasimodo.” He
started to laugh. “And who is this with you?”
“Told me what?”

to remove the bandages. The doctor indicated that it would
be fine for them to remain during the process.
John let out a loud gasp. “Oh my God! How can this
be?” He was looking directly at Richard. “You’re me! What
is going on?”
