Hear is another clip. I just love true blood. And bill and sookie. I miss that show
As far as tonight’s episode
I’m not sure if I believe the kid or not. I’m also not sure why you’re saying that other people mistake him for someone else. I’m starting to wonder about a time schism causing 2 differing futures for Henry after his disappearance but that doesn’t explain the racial change or even more bizarre is the possibility that the disappearance caused the ultimate split personality)
Ruth saw the kid as her dead husband and he was able to access his memories and provide her with information like the combination to the safe. He even mocks her and says "You're the one arguing with your dead husband" or something to that effect. In the same episode a voiceover describes things that are dead but don't die and mask their appearance in order to deceive. The father that put young Deaver in the basement even mentioned that he felt he had been deceived by him. But to stay open to other possibilities, considering the new information from this episode the kid could have known that information from his history in his own "when".
As for Deaver/Deaver, in the episode with the deaf acoustic expert he talks about multiple "wheres" and "whens" existing parallel to each other with infinite complexity. I don't necessarily think that there was a cause of their differences other than that infinite complexity, but I won't rule it out.
There are more clues to the kid being difficult to believe and possibly dishonest. In the scene where he walks with his love interest in his own world the first thing we hear her say to him is "You actually said that? With a straight face?" Usually that implies facetiousness at best and deliberate dishonesty at worst. Then she follows up saying it's a good thing people like her don't trust people like him (with money.)
It could be possible (by TV rules) that the kid hasn't aged because he's not in his natural "when".
I also don't believe Molly got hit by the warning shot. Someone on the other side that she was seeing into shot her.

Also, for anyone watching on Hulu and waiting eagerly for next week's episode I would recommend the movie Asylum of Darkness. It's clearly a low budget B-movie with barely passable acting but it is bizarre. I haven't been this confused since the first time I watched Lost Highway.
There's going to be a LOT of discussion and debate here after you see the final episode. A lot.
Plus, stick around for the mid-credits scene in the finale. It's a hoot.

I believe the kid. It definitely has to be some sort of parallel/alternate universe. It's interesting that both Lacy and Daddy Deaver killed themselves for keeping the kids they found locked up. Bad things happen around the Deaver boys when they are in the wrong universe because they are not supposed to be there. It is the universe telling them to leave. The same thing happened to Jake in 11/22/63 when he went back in time. The past didn't want to be changed so it fought him. Bad things didn't happen on a grand scale like they are in Castle Rock because he was still in his universe but not at the right point in time.
It’s likely that you are right. For some reason I find that explanation disappointing.
The fact that the kids story parallels the events of what we know seems like a good lie to me. There were even subtle hints like how the kid knew how Ruth liked her eggs cooked, and then in the alternate world the recording has the father talking about asking his alternate Deaver how he liked his eggs cooked. In 11/22/1963 it was Time that was obdurate. I don't disagree that the bad things happen because they're both out of place, just that they're not time travelling. They're slipping between worlds. For all we know they're experiencing the same time span. Plus only one of them is aging. But the season was different when young Deaver crossed over, so you may be right.
But when Alan called business-man Deaver he sounded roughly the same age as the Alan we're familiar with, so they can't be too far apart. I guess even a second out of time is still out of time, though.
I think the kid is dead. I think he died sometime after crossing over and this is an imposter with his face. His skin color is warm and alive in his world, but he's pale like a zombie in this one. Of course 27 years in the dark might do that to someone, too.
I never finished 11/22/1963, though. The past was obdurate obdurate obdurate blargh. The story seemed to meander around school dances. By the time I got to the meat of the book I couldn't make myself finish it. Stephen King is still my favorite author, though lol.

One scene from last night’s episode has started playing in my mind
when the mother (?Ruth) tries to kill the baby. Where does that fit in anything?
That was Ruth's husband's mother. When the story begins the father narrating says his mom told him a story about resurrection. She's telling him about the time she attempted to kill him and he returned to life. There's also that quote that popped up somewhere "Death is swallowed up in victory" or something like that.
What I want to know is why that scene didn't twist me inside as badly as the scene in Mr. Mercedes (the book) with Frankie?
I'm sincerely hoping Mr. King is not letting J.J. Abrams make this story up as he goes along.

does it at lest give us a sense of ending... and reslolves some plot point.
You'll have to wait and see!
I watched episode 9 which was awesome. I have abandoned any attempts to solve the mystery; just going to ride it out for the final episode. Also, how are we already at the final episode? Does anyone have a confirmation of whether there will be a second season/continuation of the story from this season?
Just finished ep. 9 Henry Deaver. WTH??! Had to do a double and triple take the first 5 minutes because
Hard to believe there's only one episode left. This one was so CRA-ZY that it's hard to comprehend how they will tie everything together. I'm with Coolallosaurus - just going to enjoy the ride!
Bill Skarsgard actually looked like a completely different person! Such a transformation. What an amazing job!

Ah. It all makes sense now!
Wooo Hoooo!!!!!
