| Synopsis | David sees a psychiatrist about his recurring nightmare of being suffocated in an hourglass. Under hypnosis, he reveals that he was a prisoner of the Japanese during World War II, and collaborated with his captors. As a result, many of his fellow Americans died, including some in a building constructed in hourglass-shape. Dr. Tate tells David he can't treat him.
