   Summary

   One morning, Early shows up half-dead on Sheriff’s doorstep, and is completely incapable of speaking...and later that day, Sheriff arrests Early for armed robbery...and he’s talking up a storm. Sheriff is determined to get to the bottom of this, and things go downhill from there. A very bizarre alternative in-universe explanation for Early’s drastic voice change.
