Storylines[]
On October 4, 2017; a man walked up to "Patient 6", attacked him, and tried to hit him with a pipe. That man was revealed to be Huxley Lynch who was then tied up by "Patient 6." Huxley was outraged and demanded to be untied but "Patient 6" refused. Huxley was then threatened with the same pipe he tried to hit "Patient 6" with and confessed that he assumed that Patient 6 was sent here by the Russians to finish him off. Huxley then introduced himself and asked who "Patient 6" was but he didn't tell him so Huxley told "Patient 6" a little bit about himself. Eventually Huxley asked to be untied and "Patient 6" agreed to let him stretch his legs but he said he would tie him back up because he couldn't take a chance on him getting attacked again. Huxley told "Patient 6" that he won't do it again and even told him where his bag of personal belongings were. When "Patient 6" found the bag and pulled out a newspaper he was shocked to see that the date on it said "October 1, 2017." He then asked Huxley if the date on it was correct and Huxley said that the paper was a week old so "Patient 6" pulled out Huxley's phone and asked him to unlock it. Huxley agreed to do it when he could get untied. "Patient 6" untied him and Huxley unlocked the phone for him to use. He saw that the date said "October 9, 2017." "Patient 6" was shocked that he had lost five years of his life to his father-in-law Julian Jerome. Huxley kept trying to engage in a conversation with "Patient 6" but was slightly frustrated that he wasn't getting anywhere. After "Patient 6" went out and looked around he came back and found Huxley hiding himself. Huxley was afraid that if they were found as stowaways on the boat that they would be turned over to the authorities but "Patient 6" promised him that no one spotted him. Huxley asked him if he wanted to play cards and "Patient 6" agreed so they played a game of poker. "Patient 6" won every hand he played which shocked Huxley so he put in his lucky watch and said that every time he wagered his watch that he would win. They each played a hand and "Patient 6" won and Huxley was shocked once again. "Patient 6" told him to keep the money and the watch but Huxley said he won it fair and square. "Patient 6" assured him he might have some offshore accounts. Huxley was intrigued that he was a coffee importer with those accounts but "Patient 6" said business is good. Huxley asked if he had anyone waiting for him at home and he said he didn't know, so Huxley ended up giving him his watch and said the luck has passed on to him since he won the wager that Huxley bet.
