As Hobbes (Scott Bairstow) comes to grips with the reality of his situation, Mike Pinnochio (D. B. Sweeney) is lured into a trap by a mercenary bounty hunter. Aided by the mute Florence (Rachel Hayward), Hobbes goes in search of Pinnochio however gets captured himself in the process. The bounty hunter (Mark Rolston), behind the back of his female partner (Kate Luyben), cuts a deal with Santiago (Terry O'Quinn). In exchage for money, the bounty hunter wants access to the mythical portal that allows individuals access to both Harsh Realm and the real world.
