7. Dream Interpretation Segment (39:00–44:00)

• Jeff’s Dream About Becky: Jeff recounts a nightmare elevator scenario, which sparks a call from a dream interpreter.

  "We were in an elevator...the door opened, you got stuck between...I was freaking out...But I did save your life. I got you out." – Jeff Lewis (23:56)
