Bangkok, June 1972. A twenty-nine-year-old lieutenant in the Royal Thai Police walks his fiancée and his seven-year-old daughter onto a Cathay Pacific flight. He makes sure they're seated over the wing. He seats them, and gets off the plane.

Under the seat in front of them is a cosmetics case. Inside it, two pounds of explosives.

He'd taken out insurance policies on both of them.

He thought the plane would go down over open water. The wreckage would sink. No bodies, no fragments, no case.

Man plans. God laughs.

This is Episode 3.

Before I tell you what happened to them, I want to spend some time letting them be alive again.

A son who built a stone wall by the lake and never finished it. A CEO who talked the board into buying a company plane. A mother who kept the snack drawer full and the door unlocked. A girl behind a camera. A boy with a postcard and a joke about an M16. A girl who danced. A thirteen-year-old who'd just had her birthday cake.

This is Episode 2. The Long Goodbye.

In the summer of 1972 a bomb destroyed a commercial jet over Vietnam. Six members of one Wisconsin family were killed.

I was seven years old. I grew up in the shadow of it without ever fully understanding what I was living inside.

This is Episode 1. The Summer of Less Than.
