Age: Undeterminable/Undeterminable

Epilogue:

Junior (narration): We had won the contest, and now, we were about to receive our deepest desire. We had done it, we won! It was time to get our mom back!

(Nergal and Son step out of the vehicle)

Calypso: Nergal and Junior, you are the winners of my twisted metal competitions and are hereby to receive a wish for each of you.

Nergal: Much obliged Calypso, but we came here for only one thing. We wish for you to change the past and to make it so that my wife was never shot by Hoss DelGato. This is what we want.

Junior: But dad? Why don't we just wish that mom were alive?

Nergal: Because Junior, I know this man…and I know what he is capable of. I will take no risks, grant our wish so that we may be once again reunited as a family.

Calypso: Very well Nergal.

Calypso (narration): (Lightning) Using my powers I granted their wish and sent them back in time to the day of Sis' death.

(Nergal and Aunt Sis are sitting at the picnic site)

Nergal: (Looks around) Everything seems normal, but where's Hoss DelGato?

Aunt Sis: Sweety, is everything all right?

Nergal: Huh? What? Oh yes darling. Oh, it's good to see you!

Aunt Sis: Honey, what are you talking about? And why is that red dot on your forehead?

(Nergal notices the dot and moves out of the way before Hoss is able to fire.)

Nergal: (Grabs Aunt Sis) We must go darling, now!

Hoss: Oh no you don't you being of another nexus! (Hoss fires a buzz saw)

(Nergal throws Aunt Sis out of the way and turns to confront Hoss.)

Calypso (narration): Later that evening…

(The scenery is Nergal home. The front door opens)

Junior: Mom? Dad? (Thinking) Did the wish work? Is mom alive?

(Junior sees Aunt Sis standing in the doorway)

Junior: Mom! Da–!

(Junior notices Nergal's headless corpse in the arms of his mother. Junior becomes stricken with tears like his mother.)

Aunt Sis: I'm sorry sweety, but there's nothing we can do…(sniff) you're daddy's gone now and you can't change the past…(sobs)

Junior: (looks up with a dark face) …Yes I can…
