Roland goes through the third door. We meet Jack Mort and boy is he terrible. But we also get to see our favorite boy again, Jake! What's going on here? Kevin and Nick go off on tangents as usual. Time works differently here. Timeline confusion is discussed.

Nick rambles a bit about things that happened in 1987 in the SK trivia because he didn't want to spoil the end of The Drawing of the Three, which with we are nearly finished!

It's Episode 50 of Chapter Brothers!!!

They finally make it to the third door. Eddie does a lot of running. Is it the Lady or the wildcat? Or is it a puma? Tension mounts as Eddie screams for ODETTA! Roland tells Eddie to be on guard.. it's been a long and winding road to the third door.

Eddie and Odetta quickly make there way down the beach, leaving the ailing Roland behind. They share a romantic night under the stars together and finally spot the third door. The end of the book is slowly approaching. Disclaimer: Nick was recording in a dim basement and misplaced his glasses, apologies for the poor reading, thank goodness for Kevin's professionalism.

Eddie and Roland continue pushing the wheelchair through sand traps and spinning their wheels. Detta is wary of these two honky mahfahs. Kevin and Nick (two honky mahfahs themselves) attempt to go quickly but end up going long as they discuss consent and racial stereotypes in film and literature. Kevin defends his stance on wearing shoes and socks at the beach.

Eddie gets a rude awakening from Detta. Luckily Roland knows this gunslinger in the making is always slightly dangerous. While he sleeps with one eye open, he waits for Eddie to learn a painful lesson before the mongoose subdues the snake.

As Roland goes off to find water, Eddie and Odetta get to know each other better. Odetta questions if any of this is real and Eddie, the great debater, makes a strong philosophical argument. Nick has flashbacks to Philosophy 101 and his brain breaks. Thankfully, Kevin is able to hold the show together.

Kevin and Nick discuss their greatest fears in the SK trivia. Odetta comes through the door. Roland calls Eddies bluff and needs a minute a minute to process what's next. Eddie seems to be smitten by Odetta.

We meet two new characters who tell us Odetta/Detta's story. Nick and Kevin discuss the circulatory system, racist stereotypes, some more talk of dissociative identity disorder, and the question of consent.
