Missouri knows something's wrong. She can't necessarily see into the future, but she knows when something's happened to someone close to her.
She's been awake since she woke up with a start in the early hours of the morning. An owl was shrieking outside her window. She's been pacing about the house trying to keep busy ever since, as she waits for the inevitable phone call.
She called her family first, checking in on them. Then she tried John; he didn't answer, but that didn't necessarily mean anything.
The phone rings while she's playing Solitaire at the kitchen table. She starts, and the cards fan out from her hands. She closes her eyes, finally visualizing who's on the other end.
Picking up the phone, she says wearily, "Hey Sam, honey. What's happened?"
