Ep. 3: Hayakawa untersucht die Angst seines Freundes Irie vor dem 44. Schaf nach einem mysteriösen Verschwinden.

3

A college student named Hayakawa finds his friend Irie looking ill; he has insomnia, and even medication doesn't help. Hayakawa suggests counting sheep, but Irie angrily refuses out of fear of the 44th Sheep, and storms off without explaining. That night, Hayakawa, out of curiosity, decides to try it anyway. Upon reaching 44, he gets a frantic call from Irie saying the 44th Sheep has come for him, which ends abruptly. Hayakawa tries repeatedly to call him back, to no avail. The next morning, he angrily confronts Irie, who tells him that the 44th Sheep is coming for him next. Hayakawa demands that Irie faces him, but is horrified by his face. A professor distracts him, and Irie vanishes; in truth, Irie has been missing. That night, Hayakawa hears Irie's voice counting sheep; he begs in vain for it to stop, seeing a spectral ram. The count reaches 44, and nothing happens. He sighs with relief... then his eye transforms into that of a sheep... (Source: Wikipedia)
