First Wave Season 1 Episode 19
Foster arrives in a town where it has been raining for two years.
– – – Quatrain 64, Century 8. “The slayer flees to the shadow of Olympus / Where a mother’ s tears wash away ties to Rome / Fear extracts vain sacrifice / Until the raging pyre of the deluge is quenched”.
The Olympus that Nostradamus foresaw was Olympia, Washington, where convicted mass murderer Glenn Harris had escaped from police custody three weeks earlier. I pegged Harris as the “slayer” from the quatrain, and figured “the shadow” of Olympia laid just to the east… in a small lumber town called Athlone. That’s where I hoped a mass murderer would lead me to aliens.
