Just like Amy and Hertwig had thought, Nancy's expressions seemed as if she had been watching a dream.
—
Sebastian had left to see Samuel in the basement of Bradley's mansion, leaving Bradley and Nancy alone in the study room in Nancy's dream setting. It seemed realistic and nostalgic. They had just played a game of chess before having a heated argument. Nancy had claimed things about Sebastian, and he had claimed things about Nancy.
The only one who didn't have a lot of part during this conversation was Bradley, other than when Sebastian's wife, Bev, was mentioned.
"You're dumber than I had thought," Bradley said as he took his seat.
A rather familiar scene. Somehow, Nancy inside the dream seemed to know whatever she knew in real life at the present moment. Things like how Bradley was long gone, how Sebastian's wife Beverly was Bradley's sister and Samuel's mother, and so on.
