Ted is a 1930s serial killer who has been skipping towns after murdering his victims. However, he gets sloppy and when he's burying his latest victim (a man who was known for being… touchy with several women) he hears a tiny “hello!” and he sees a four-year-old Nicky approaching him wide-eyed, innocent and curious! Ted plasters on his biggest ‘I'm a good person!’ grin and tries to subtly shoo Nicky away like he's a dog going “run along now your mummy and daddy are probably worried” and Nicky flat out states “They’re gone…” but he doesn't elaborate! Nicky does get rather dirty and Ted gets a genius but not very legal plan. He takes Nicky back to the hotel where he is staying and well... Kidnapps him. Taking Nicky back with him to the big city where Ted lives and works (he's a radio show host) but he doesn't tell Nicky that he's never going back home and tried to get the help of Diane (whose a singer at a bar and a exstremely good friend of his) to raise Nicky and give him pointers of what to do since he's never had a child and isn't married! Ted figures he is going to give a few white lies about Nicky and where he is from before dumping him in a field somewhere later and wait for someone to get him. However, he ends up revealing to much of himself to Nicky so that plan goes out the window and well… ted gets a little to attached to Nicky
