Caritas, Wednesday

Jake had spent the better part of the past week talking himself out of calling home. Sure, the handwavy conversations he'd had with the Trooper Station staff had seemed to indicate that he was, in fact, on good speaking terms with most of his family, but...

What if that was only local to the island? What if he called, and the call connected back to that reality where he'd taken the fall for a murder he hadn't committed? And if he spoke to the family of the Jake Doyle he'd apparently replaced, it wouldn't really be the same, would it?

All this bullshit was resulting on him teetering on the edge of an existential crisis, so Jake was just going to deal with this the same way he dealt with every other crisis: drinking. Heavily.
