In the fourth episode of the series, the evil and deranged figure of Jim Dooley catches Lisey by surprise, and we see the abject torture of Lisey in the hands of Dooley. It is far from a happy sight, and some people may find it acutely distressing. But as the healing process begins, Lisey is taken back to her second visit to the world of Booya Moon. We see that the conjuring of the world is presupposed by a flow of water. As Scott and Lisey enter the magic realist landscape, they are threatened by the fantastical creature called the Long Boy. Lisey gets scared, and Scott tells her about the time when he took Paul to Booya Moon. We revisit Scott’s childhood and are formally introduced to the pool that has healing powers. Lisey is taken by an overwhelming outpour of emotion, and the final scene sees her breaking into tears.
