Hello everybody and welcome back to Let's Play Pretend.
00:01:21
Speaker
My name is Jordan Derringer.
00:01:23
Speaker
I am your DM, GM, keeper, handler, and host.
00:01:31
Speaker
And today's going to be a fun episode.
00:01:34
Speaker
And I have with me a Mr. Nick Barnett.
Character Fun Facts and Humor
00:01:39
Speaker
I'm Ned Dalaran, and my not-so-fun fact for this episode is my dog Banjo, he ain't been doing so good lately, and he was at the vet's office getting some blood work done.
00:01:51
Speaker
I was supposed to go and pick him up tonight, but I guess that didn't really get to happen.
00:01:57
Speaker
Because you're stuck in the in-between.
00:01:59
Speaker
The fucking thing.
00:02:02
Speaker
It's the fucking in between.
00:02:04
Speaker
The fucking in between.
00:02:05
Speaker
I also have with me Mr. Breck Black.
00:02:08
Speaker
Hello, I am Ryan.
00:02:09
Speaker
And my fun fact tonight is that I did not have a fun fact.
00:02:14
Speaker
Because I forgot to prepare one.
00:02:17
Speaker
Man, I told you at the beginning of the week to have one prepared.
00:02:21
Speaker
Weren't you the one who said, like, thanks for letting us know?
00:02:25
Speaker
That was me.
00:02:26
Speaker
That was Matt.
00:02:27
Speaker
Speaking of, I was just about to say, to be fair, I have one written down.
00:02:31
Speaker
I just don't know where I put it.
00:02:34
Speaker
somewhere.
00:02:34
Speaker
Alright, well, we'll save that for next episode then.
00:02:38
Speaker
But speaking of Mr. Matt Check, I also have with me a Mr. Matt Check.
00:02:45
Speaker
Oh, I'm playing Arthur.
00:02:48
Speaker
And Arthur's super fun fact is he's an expert whittler.
00:02:53
Speaker
Okay, so you're an expert whittler.
00:02:55
Speaker
You're an expert scuba diver.
00:02:58
Speaker
Oh, yeah.
00:02:59
Speaker
These are all true facts.
00:03:01
Speaker
Uh-huh.
00:03:02
Speaker
I'll be sure to keep that in mind.
00:03:04
Speaker
He's an actual Delta Green agent.
00:03:08
Speaker
He's just he just looks like a teenager to throw you all off.
00:03:11
Speaker
Wait a minute.
00:03:12
Speaker
Wait a minute.
00:03:13
Speaker
What is what is expert in this situation here?
00:03:17
Speaker
Yeah.
00:03:18
Speaker
Well, I mean, I mean, it's so long as you take a knife and you make a stick pointy, I would call that expert.
00:03:24
Speaker
No, no, I could make like a fox, crudely draw a wooded cut fox.
00:03:32
Speaker
It's perfect art.
00:03:34
Speaker
You guys just don't understand.
00:03:35
Speaker
I'm a complex.
00:03:37
Speaker
I don't know how you have time for all that with YouTube channel and everything too.
00:03:41
Speaker
What do you think I populate the videos with?
00:03:44
Speaker
Everyone loves my Wittlin.
00:03:47
Speaker
And you've heard her voice once or twice
Guest Introduction and Podcast Talk
00:03:49
Speaker
already.
00:03:49
Speaker
I have with me my lovely wife, Mrs. Melanie Derringer.
00:03:54
Speaker
Hi, I play Samantha Williams, and her fun fact, which I hope the DM doesn't fuck me over with, is she is partially deaf in her right ear due to swim resume.
00:04:06
Speaker
Oh, so you're saying if I have any monsters to sneak up on your right side, perfect.
00:04:12
Speaker
No.
00:04:12
Speaker
No, that's not what I'm saying at all.
00:04:15
Speaker
Hey guys, I also came up with a fun fact.
00:04:20
Speaker
Are you ready for my fun fact?
00:04:22
Speaker
That worries me a lot.
00:04:23
Speaker
It's not going to be fun.
00:04:24
Speaker
Oh, no, it's going to be very fun because my fun fact is that we are on episode 10.
00:04:32
Speaker
And this is the first episode where we have a guest with us.
00:04:38
Speaker
Isn't that right?
00:04:39
Speaker
Mrs. Shelby Hill.
00:04:41
Speaker
What's up, idiots?
00:04:43
Speaker
You had no idea I was here.
00:04:45
Speaker
I just clipped so bad.
00:04:46
Speaker
I'm so sorry.
00:04:49
Speaker
Welcome to the show, Shelby.
00:04:51
Speaker
Or should I say, Elise Fitzgerald.
00:04:53
Speaker
Hello.
00:04:54
Speaker
My fun fact is Jordan didn't tell me to have a fun fact.
00:04:56
Speaker
My fun fact is I'm here.
00:04:58
Speaker
Welcome to the podcast.
00:05:00
Speaker
This is most weeks with information that God gives us.
00:05:04
Speaker
Yeah, pretty much.
00:05:06
Speaker
We haven't introduced your character yet.
00:05:09
Speaker
And since you're going to be on for a few episodes, I will definitely let you know if we're doing a fun fact next time.
00:05:15
Speaker
Thank you.
00:05:16
Speaker
I'd like to be kept in the loop as I am obviously the most important one here.
00:05:21
Speaker
Of course.
00:05:23
Speaker
Shelby, if you would like to, before we get started, if you'd like to introduce yourself, let people know where they can find you.
00:05:30
Speaker
I'll also give you time at the end to plug your show and all that as well.
00:05:33
Speaker
But if you would like to take the floor and introduce yourself quick, be my guest.
00:05:38
Speaker
hi i'm shelby uh nice to meet you all your listeners um i am melanie's cousin slash we're basically sisters yeah we are i guess we're not related oh yeah i'm also matt's cousin i guess uh do you want me to talk about my show now or do you want me to wait
00:06:00
Speaker
I mean, you could talk about it now if you want.
00:06:02
Speaker
You could talk about it at the end if you want.
00:06:03
Speaker
It does not matter to me, whichever you would prefer.
00:06:06
Speaker
Well, I have had a podcast for two years now.
00:06:10
Speaker
Oh my goodness, probably almost three years.
00:06:12
Speaker
It's called Folk and Fantasy.
00:06:14
Speaker
It's a Dungeons and Dragons podcast, fifth edition podcast, where we...
00:06:18
Speaker
act like idiots and improvise stupid jokes and if you're into that kind of thing you can find us on google podcast apple podcast uh simple cast is where we usually put our stuff out um you can also find us on spotify facebook twitter we're all over the place it's folk with a little n and then fantasy
00:06:42
Speaker
Poorly.
00:06:43
Speaker
Poorly.
00:06:44
Speaker
We play poorly.
00:06:46
Speaker
And we have all listened to the show.
00:06:49
Speaker
All of us here have listened to the show and we can all attest to how good it is.
00:06:51
Speaker
Except Matt, he's an idiot.
00:06:54
Speaker
What?
00:06:54
Speaker
I listened to it.
00:06:55
Speaker
What the hell are you talking about?
00:06:57
Speaker
You listened to like one episode of this.
00:07:00
Speaker
I didn't abandon you.
00:07:02
Speaker
I'm just not caught up.
00:07:03
Speaker
I'm sorry.
00:07:05
Speaker
It's okay.
00:07:06
Speaker
You don't have to listen.
00:07:07
Speaker
I wouldn't be offended if you didn't listen.
00:07:09
Speaker
I have.
00:07:10
Speaker
I just have not caught up.
00:07:11
Speaker
I'm telling you, I'm not caught up.
00:07:14
Speaker
You put me on the spot.
00:07:16
Speaker
Yes, you did.
00:07:17
Speaker
You're welcome.
00:07:19
Speaker
So as Shelby said, her and Melanie are cousins and Matt.
00:07:24
Speaker
Yes, I know, Matt.
00:07:25
Speaker
But I'm getting to that.
00:07:28
Speaker
I'm getting to the point of why Shelby and Melanie are important in this in this.
00:07:33
Speaker
Oh, you just sit down.
00:07:37
Speaker
I already am sitting.
00:07:39
Speaker
Perfect.
00:07:40
Speaker
Back away from your mic, Mr. Matthew.
00:07:42
Speaker
Yeah, you're clipping pretty hard.
00:07:45
Speaker
What?
00:07:46
Speaker
So Melanie and Shelby basically consider themselves sisters, which works really well
Recap of Shocking Events
00:07:54
Speaker
because
00:07:55
Speaker
We kind of consider Folk and Fantasy a big sister to our podcast.
00:07:59
Speaker
So we have it was very fitting that you are our first guest on this show, Shelby.
00:08:07
Speaker
So thank you very much for joining us.
00:08:09
Speaker
Thank you very much for having me.
00:08:10
Speaker
I look forward to it.
00:08:11
Speaker
I'm so excited you're here.
00:08:13
Speaker
You guys haven't published a lot at this point, so I'm not quite sure what I'm getting into, but I enjoyed the first few episodes.
00:08:20
Speaker
It's hell.
00:08:21
Speaker
Oh, God.
00:08:22
Speaker
Let's throw that out there.
00:08:23
Speaker
We at the point of recording this, we have published three episodes and Shelby is on.
00:08:29
Speaker
It is a guest on episode 10.
00:08:32
Speaker
So we're really throwing her into the deep end here.
00:08:34
Speaker
Yeah, nothing really important happened yet.
00:08:39
Speaker
It's all good.
00:08:40
Speaker
No.
00:08:41
Speaker
Yeah, not at all.
00:08:42
Speaker
Not at all.
00:08:44
Speaker
So rumor that someone passed out.
00:08:46
Speaker
So something's happened.
00:08:49
Speaker
Yeah, that'd be Ryan.
00:08:51
Speaker
Yeah.
00:08:51
Speaker
Hello.
00:08:54
Speaker
That being said, how about we get into a recap, guys?
00:08:58
Speaker
Go for it.
00:09:00
Speaker
All right.
00:09:01
Speaker
So in the last episode, you guys started off down in the basement of the movie theater face to face with Chris and Ashley, which was a shock seeing as how to you guys, as far as you knew, they were dead.
00:09:16
Speaker
And now they're standing right in front of you.
00:09:18
Speaker
So you guys had just escaped the monster and we're in the room with Ashley and Chris and you guys kind of caught up.
00:09:27
Speaker
You were talking and all of a sudden the monster decided, hey, even though I've never been in this room before, fuck all of you.
00:09:34
Speaker
I'm coming in, which kind of spurred you guys into a one on one up the dumbwaiter to get away from this thing.
00:09:44
Speaker
A lot was revealed there, which I cannot talk about because we did a lot of single scenes that you guys are unaware of.
00:09:52
Speaker
But a lot was revealed there as you guys were escaping the monster.
00:09:56
Speaker
The episode ended with Chris coming up the stairs and the monster not chasing you.
00:10:02
Speaker
After Ryan, using Chris's sidearm, put two bullets right in this thing's face, took out its eye, took out its cheek.
00:10:11
Speaker
You stood at the top of the stairs as you watched the monster stare from the bottom up at you guys and then turn and walk away.
00:10:20
Speaker
After a very detrimental sanity roll on Ryan's part, you guys all took your sand damage and Ryan passed the fuck out.
00:10:31
Speaker
Luckily, he fell backwards into you guys.
00:10:33
Speaker
You were able to catch him instead of him tumbling down the stairs into the den of the monster.
00:10:39
Speaker
That being said, Ryan also has a...
00:10:43
Speaker
A fun little thing that he has to try to role play as well.
00:10:46
Speaker
We will get to that whenever he decides to role play it.
00:10:50
Speaker
But as you guys catch Ryan and you hit the ground, you hear the door to the movie theater open.
00:11:01
Speaker
And that is where we are now.
00:11:02
Speaker
So, Ryan, you are passed out.
Character Developments and Connections
00:11:07
Speaker
Yep.
00:11:08
Speaker
You are unconscious.
00:11:11
Speaker
I am going to start this part here by asking you to give me a constitution roll.
00:11:19
Speaker
Oh, I was not expecting that.
00:11:20
Speaker
I was expecting no headphones.
00:11:23
Speaker
Yeah, we'll see how this constitution roll goes.
00:11:27
Speaker
Constitution.
00:11:28
Speaker
That is a 73 on an 85.
00:11:29
Speaker
Okay, so we will call it a momentary loss of consciousness.
00:11:38
Speaker
You hit the ground, but...
00:11:40
Speaker
No, no, no, no.
00:11:42
Speaker
He doesn't hit the ground.
00:11:43
Speaker
We caught him.
00:11:45
Speaker
He's still going to hit the ground.
00:11:46
Speaker
He's just not going to hit the ground.
00:11:49
Speaker
We're going to place him on the ground.
00:11:51
Speaker
Let's be real.
00:11:52
Speaker
We're not going to be like, oh, he passed out.
00:11:54
Speaker
Caught you.
00:11:54
Speaker
Drop.
00:11:55
Speaker
As you are gently set on the ground, Ryan, with a pillow under your head and a blanket found from who fucking knows where.
00:12:01
Speaker
I brought it.
00:12:02
Speaker
Because apparently that's what fucking Samantha wants.
00:12:09
Speaker
You come back to and because you rolled a while you didn't roll, you crit failed.
00:12:16
Speaker
So I gave you seven sand damage.
00:12:19
Speaker
You the first thing you think is water.
00:12:23
Speaker
I need water.
00:12:26
Speaker
You guys, you guys got water?
00:12:27
Speaker
Water?
00:12:28
Speaker
Oh God.
00:12:29
Speaker
Oh God.
00:12:29
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:12:30
Speaker
We got some in the pack here.
00:12:31
Speaker
Here, hold on, hold on.
00:12:33
Speaker
And I'll open a little bottle of water we got from the shop.
00:12:37
Speaker
Ryan takes it from him and just opens his mouth and then just dumps it all over his face and mouth.
00:12:43
Speaker
Okay.
00:12:44
Speaker
With that, you are able to feel a little bit better.
00:12:47
Speaker
You're able to get back to your feet.
00:12:49
Speaker
And you guys hear the door to the movie theater open.
00:12:55
Speaker
And as you turn around to see who it is walking through the door of the movie theater, I would like Shelby to describe what they see.
00:13:03
Speaker
One second, I'm so sorry.
00:13:05
Speaker
Through the doors of the movie theater, you see a 19-year-old woman.
00:13:08
Speaker
She's about 5'11", with red hair that reaches down to her butt.
00:13:12
Speaker
It's in a nice braid down her back.
00:13:15
Speaker
She's wearing black Converse jean shorts that cut off right above the knee and a black and red flannel shirt that she has rolled up to her elbows.
00:13:22
Speaker
She has pale skin with lots of freckles and green eyes and a baseball bat with a bunch of nails sticking out of it thrown over her shoulder.
00:13:31
Speaker
Oh, she looks like she's been here a while.
00:13:33
Speaker
All right.
00:13:35
Speaker
The hell is her?
00:13:47
Speaker
Sorry, it's this whole fucking place.
00:13:49
Speaker
It's good to be.
00:13:50
Speaker
Man, you accidentally did a whole new sentence there, bro.
00:13:53
Speaker
Oh, absolutely.
00:13:56
Speaker
I'm going to stand up and I'm going to hold that goofy bat of Arthur's that I took from him.
00:14:02
Speaker
You mean fantastic rock bat?
00:14:04
Speaker
You're welcome.
00:14:05
Speaker
You didn't even put the rock on top, man.
00:14:07
Speaker
It's kind of in the middle.
00:14:08
Speaker
You're welcome.
00:14:10
Speaker
Man, we're making a good impression here.
00:14:13
Speaker
I'm going to go ahead and guess you know Charlie...
00:14:17
Speaker
Or Lance?
00:14:19
Speaker
Uh, yes I do.
00:14:21
Speaker
And you would be?
00:14:23
Speaker
Uh, sorry.
00:14:24
Speaker
My name is Ned.
00:14:26
Speaker
Uh... I like your... Welcome home.
00:14:29
Speaker
I like your accent.
00:14:30
Speaker
It's nice.
00:14:31
Speaker
It's nice to hear someone from down home too.
00:14:33
Speaker
I really appreciate it.
00:14:34
Speaker
Oh my gosh, it's so comforting in these times, you know?
00:14:37
Speaker
Oh my god, a little bit of home.
00:14:39
Speaker
Alright, uh... I got there's two of them.
00:14:44
Speaker
Anyway, you were saying...
00:14:47
Speaker
Uh, we met Charlie and Lance.
00:14:49
Speaker
They saved us from a couple of them grinners that we ran into.
00:14:53
Speaker
And, uh, they gave us a key and they told us to come here and they were heading to some, uh, Sam, what was it called?
00:15:01
Speaker
The Nest.
00:15:02
Speaker
That's it.
00:15:02
Speaker
Yeah.
00:15:03
Speaker
So they're who we were expecting to show up.
00:15:06
Speaker
If anybody was going to, they didn't tell us nothing about you.
00:15:10
Speaker
Right.
00:15:11
Speaker
I was at the nest and Lance and Charlotte came in and they sort of rescued me and gave me a key and told me to come here too.
00:15:20
Speaker
Wait, they didn't come back with... No.
00:15:23
Speaker
I want Ned and Samantha and Ryan and Arthur to give me a history check, please.
00:15:30
Speaker
Oh shit, my history better be good.
00:15:39
Speaker
I got a 97 on a 40.
00:15:41
Speaker
Okay, you don't remember shit.
00:15:44
Speaker
Fuck!
00:15:45
Speaker
That's about right.
00:15:47
Speaker
85 on a 13.
00:15:48
Speaker
I got a 33 on a 40.
00:15:50
Speaker
I got a 13 on an 11.
00:15:55
Speaker
Oh, that's disappointing.
00:15:56
Speaker
So Arthur is the only one to remember this, but it's not anything I need you guys to take your headsets off for.
00:16:03
Speaker
Arthur, when they handed you the key, they told you that this was the spare and they only had the other one other key.
00:16:13
Speaker
I tell them that as well.
00:16:15
Speaker
I was like, oh, yeah.
00:16:17
Speaker
I don't really know what happened to them exactly, but that area, it was just it was crawling with monsters.
00:16:23
Speaker
And I don't really know how I made it out of there.
00:16:28
Speaker
And I'm not sure how they fared either.
00:16:30
Speaker
So they didn't say when they're going to be back?
00:16:33
Speaker
The only information I've been given is that I have this key and I was supposed to come here.
00:16:41
Speaker
Oh my God.
00:16:41
Speaker
These two are so cryptic.
00:16:43
Speaker
Why are they grouping a bunch of random people in one place?
00:16:47
Speaker
Yeah, it's totally Lance and Charlotte that are cryptic and not your God.
00:16:51
Speaker
Yes, 100%.
00:16:52
Speaker
Blame it on the characters.
00:16:57
Speaker
God is telling me conflicting information.
00:17:00
Speaker
Yeah.
00:17:03
Speaker
Charlotte?
00:17:04
Speaker
Not Charlotte.
00:17:05
Speaker
Oh, wow.
00:17:05
Speaker
Wrong, wrong.
00:17:07
Speaker
Yeah, you're not Charlotte anymore.
00:17:08
Speaker
Wrong game.
00:17:09
Speaker
You're Samantha.
00:17:09
Speaker
I'm Samantha.
00:17:12
Speaker
Samantha is going to look over to Chris.
00:17:16
Speaker
And is he still looking downstairs or is he paying attention?
00:17:20
Speaker
Show him his character.
00:17:21
Speaker
He has turned around to face Shelby's character.
00:17:27
Speaker
And but he is still kind of every now and then glancing behind him to make sure that the monster is staying in the basement.
00:17:36
Speaker
She looks at Chris and goes, have you met Charlotte and Lance?
00:17:43
Speaker
No.
00:17:46
Speaker
Like I like I told you guys downstairs, I
00:17:49
Speaker
Ashley and I just woke up in the storeroom downstairs.
00:17:52
Speaker
All we have seen of this new realm, as you call it, is that storeroom.
00:18:00
Speaker
This is the first time we've actually been out of there, so I don't know who this Charlotte or Lance are.
00:18:07
Speaker
She looks at the rest of the group.
00:18:09
Speaker
Do you guys think we should go after them?
00:18:14
Speaker
Maybe the nest has some answers that we don't
00:18:18
Speaker
that might find a way to get out of this place.
00:18:23
Speaker
It seems like it's the only option we got.
00:18:27
Speaker
By the way, money!
00:18:31
Speaker
Whoa.
00:18:33
Speaker
That was a wall of sound that I could not comprehend.
00:18:41
Speaker
Go ahead, Sheldon.
00:18:43
Speaker
By the way, my name's Elise, in case anyone was wondering.
00:18:46
Speaker
Y'all are so nice and welcome in here in the movie theater.
00:18:49
Speaker
I'm Elise.
00:18:52
Speaker
Real nice to meet y'all.
00:18:54
Speaker
Yeah, yeah.
00:18:56
Speaker
It's another one of those southern people.
00:18:59
Speaker
Oh no, now it's hitting me.
00:19:01
Speaker
Hey, that fits you real good.
00:19:06
Speaker
Does Ned still have...
00:19:10
Speaker
the little pieces of string?
00:19:12
Speaker
I don't have any more, but I mean, I can get another piece of string and I can make another.
00:19:16
Speaker
Forget me not.
00:19:18
Speaker
I have duct tape.
00:19:19
Speaker
Chris steps forward and he goes, sorry for the rudeness.
00:19:26
Speaker
My name is Chris.
00:19:28
Speaker
Chris Brooks.
00:19:30
Speaker
This over here, it's great to meet you as well.
00:19:34
Speaker
This over here, and he points at a woman that looks a year or two younger than you, blonde, freckled, really pretty.
00:19:44
Speaker
He points at her and he goes, this is my sister, Ashley.
00:19:48
Speaker
Over here, we have Ned.
00:19:49
Speaker
Yep.
00:19:51
Speaker
Howdy.
00:19:52
Speaker
How you doing?
00:19:53
Speaker
We have Ryan.
00:19:55
Speaker
Hi.
00:19:57
Speaker
And then he turns around and starts to keep trying to light his cigarette.
00:20:01
Speaker
Uh, we have Arthur.
00:20:02
Speaker
Hello!
00:20:04
Speaker
And we have Samantha.
00:20:07
Speaker
She kind of just gives like a small, a small wave.
00:20:10
Speaker
Hi, Samantha.
00:20:13
Speaker
Hi.
00:20:13
Speaker
I want... Oh, go ahead.
00:20:15
Speaker
Do y'all know what's going on here?
00:20:19
Speaker
at all we were actually hoping that you had something anything to say about it because we're shit out of luck then because i have zero information we have the exact amount of information you do well i have a question um how did you get here i walked from the nest no no no that's real suspicious not not to the movie theater how did you get in the in-between
00:20:47
Speaker
So at this point, Shelby, I will let you come up with some background for your character.
00:20:52
Speaker
What was your character doing in the real world when the shockwave happened that brought you to the in-between?
The Shockwave Event Revealed
00:20:59
Speaker
She was in the drive-thru for McDonald's.
00:21:04
Speaker
It wasn't like... Because like I said, I haven't listened to those episodes, so it's literally... Wow, you don't listen to our show?
00:21:13
Speaker
You have not released...
00:21:16
Speaker
Those episodes.
00:21:17
Speaker
How dare you.
00:21:18
Speaker
So people were just doing normal everyday things and they got transported here?
00:21:22
Speaker
Yes.
00:21:24
Speaker
Sure.
00:21:28
Speaker
The party was with Ashley and she was doing a ritual in order to talk to her dead brother, Chris.
00:21:37
Speaker
Like we said, normal things.
00:21:39
Speaker
Yeah.
00:21:41
Speaker
And when Chris came through, he broke Ashley's neck after sticking his thumb into her eye sockets, which sent off a shockwave that brought everybody into the in-between.
00:21:52
Speaker
A completely normal shockwave.
00:21:55
Speaker
Yeah.
00:21:55
Speaker
Yeah, you know, normal things.
00:21:57
Speaker
The things that you would just call a normal Friday night.
00:22:00
Speaker
Yeah, you know when you break your little sister's neck.
00:22:02
Speaker
That's just a Friday.
00:22:03
Speaker
Can I ask what time of year it was?
00:22:05
Speaker
It was on Halloween.
00:22:08
Speaker
You're funny.
00:22:10
Speaker
Okay.
00:22:11
Speaker
Oh.
00:22:12
Speaker
Okay.
00:22:15
Speaker
Well, you know, every year on Halloween, my parents... I grew up on a farm and we set up a haunted hayride and a haunted barn for Halloween.
00:22:24
Speaker
So I was about to scare some kids, you know, dressed as a scary scarecrow or whatever I was dressed as.
00:22:31
Speaker
And I popped in here.
00:22:34
Speaker
Not quite sure how or why...
00:22:39
Speaker
But yep, that's what I was doing.
00:22:41
Speaker
What about you guys?
00:22:42
Speaker
What were you doing?
00:22:44
Speaker
Um, well, you see.
00:22:48
Speaker
Side eye to Ashley.
00:22:50
Speaker
I was going to say Ashley steps forward and she goes, I, uh, I was, I was trying to contact my, my brother.
00:23:02
Speaker
He, uh, he died in combat and, uh, we were very close.
00:23:10
Speaker
And now he's here and I don't I don't know why, but he's here and now we're here and this whole thing is my fault.
00:23:22
Speaker
Oh shit, you broke the world?
00:23:25
Speaker
Girl, that's like I can't imagine having that on my resume, you know?
00:23:30
Speaker
That's a big one.
00:23:32
Speaker
Big whoopsie, but you know, I think we'll get through it.
00:23:35
Speaker
You know, we're a team now.
00:23:36
Speaker
I'm here, you're here.
00:23:38
Speaker
So maybe we can help each other out.
00:23:41
Speaker
I'd like to get back to my haunted barn or whatever I was doing.
00:23:46
Speaker
It seems like you don't really want to go back.
00:23:51
Speaker
I don't understand why you feel that way.
00:23:55
Speaker
You seem rather relaxed to be in this zone.
00:23:59
Speaker
I'm pretty convinced this is some sort of lucid dream and I'm going to wake up any moment actually.
The Quest for Answers
00:24:07
Speaker
So let me be the stark reality in your life.
00:24:11
Speaker
You're awake.
00:24:15
Speaker
Are you sure?
00:24:17
Speaker
Ryan is going to walk up to her.
00:24:18
Speaker
Just flicker in the arm.
00:24:22
Speaker
I mean, I can, I can have pain in a lucid dream, right?
00:24:26
Speaker
No.
00:24:28
Speaker
I would trust Arthur.
00:24:29
Speaker
He's kind of the I like weird shit expert.
00:24:35
Speaker
Apparently a really good whittler.
00:24:36
Speaker
Arthur pushes up his glasses like oh.
00:24:45
Speaker
Oh.
00:24:45
Speaker
Yeah, he's a lot.
00:24:47
Speaker
This is a lot to process.
00:24:50
Speaker
Alright.
00:24:51
Speaker
This is real shit.
00:24:53
Speaker
Okay.
00:24:55
Speaker
Okay, but real talk, real quick.
00:24:57
Speaker
Um,
00:24:59
Speaker
We need to get out of here.
00:25:01
Speaker
Right.
00:25:02
Speaker
Like, not just the movie theater, like this place altogether, because apparently we're all missing, and it's not even Halloween anymore.
00:25:09
Speaker
So... What year was it when you, uh, before you guys came in here?
00:25:15
Speaker
It was 2010, Halloween, 9.
00:25:17
Speaker
Okay, so that doesn't help us, because we still don't know if we're 2001, if we're 2019.
00:25:22
Speaker
We're an enigma.
00:25:23
Speaker
We're an enigma.
00:25:29
Speaker
No, Arthur, you're an enigma.
00:25:32
Speaker
She's from about 10 to 12 years before you guys.
00:25:36
Speaker
Okay.
00:25:37
Speaker
How's the future?
00:25:38
Speaker
It's pretty shitty.
00:25:39
Speaker
Yeah.
00:25:41
Speaker
I mean, if it ends up like this, it does seem kind of shitty.
00:25:44
Speaker
All right.
00:25:46
Speaker
That's it.
00:25:47
Speaker
Nailing it into the wall right now.
00:25:48
Speaker
2019.
00:25:48
Speaker
You guys are 2019.
00:25:52
Speaker
You're before coronavirus, before all that shit.
00:25:56
Speaker
So you have no idea about that.
00:25:57
Speaker
2019.
00:25:58
Speaker
And I'm really fucking hoping that that lines up because I said that Halloween was on a Friday.
00:26:05
Speaker
And if it doesn't, it's my fucking make-believe world.
00:26:08
Speaker
Halloween was on a Friday that year in my make-believe world.
00:26:11
Speaker
I'm checking.
00:26:15
Speaker
What time of day is it?
00:26:17
Speaker
Or like, how long have we been up since I guess the sun never really rises or sets here?
00:26:22
Speaker
So you guys have, yeah, it's a little more flavor for the world shell.
00:26:27
Speaker
The sky is always like a deep red, but it's always the aesthetic of nighttime.
00:26:33
Speaker
Okay.
00:26:34
Speaker
So just so you know, you guys have been in this world,
00:26:40
Speaker
for about, we'll say about six to seven hours.
Exploration of the In-Between World
00:26:47
Speaker
Elise is going to start looking around the movie theater.
00:26:51
Speaker
And is it like yesterday people were in this theater or does it seem abandoned?
00:26:57
Speaker
It seems like it could be open for business right now.
00:27:00
Speaker
Okay.
00:27:00
Speaker
She grabs a pack of like licorice or something that she finds and rips it open, starts eating some.
00:27:05
Speaker
Yeah, totally.
00:27:06
Speaker
I was going to say, you smell the smell of fresh popcorn.
00:27:09
Speaker
The soda machines look like they're ready to work with no issues.
00:27:14
Speaker
The shelves are stocked with candy.
00:27:17
Speaker
It looks like this place could be open for business right now.
00:27:20
Speaker
So yeah, you can totally grab a piece of candy and start eating.
00:27:24
Speaker
Oh yeah.
00:27:25
Speaker
Can we say that I went and found another little piece of string?
00:27:28
Speaker
Yeah, totally.
00:27:29
Speaker
You might want to explain to her what the string is.
00:27:33
Speaker
Working on one right now.
00:27:35
Speaker
And I'm going to, Ned's going to walk up to you and all right.
00:27:39
Speaker
So, uh, Lance and Charlotte, they were saying something about it's possible for something out here to like take over what you look like and pretend to be you.
00:27:53
Speaker
And we'll come up with a good code to have with you too.
00:27:56
Speaker
But right now, all of us got one of these on and I hand you a little piece of like twine string with a knot tied in on the side.
00:28:05
Speaker
Go ahead and stick this up under your shirt, like around your shoulder or something.
00:28:09
Speaker
So that if we all get separated, we want to make sure it's you.
00:28:13
Speaker
We just kind of pat you on the shoulder and we'll feel that knot.
00:28:17
Speaker
You want me to put this string under my shirt?
00:28:21
Speaker
I got one too.
00:28:23
Speaker
Sam looks at Elise and goes, you want me to take this string?
00:28:29
Speaker
I'm trying to tie it around your arm.
00:28:31
Speaker
Ned, just stop talking.
00:28:34
Speaker
You're freaking her out.
00:28:36
Speaker
Just go ahead and wrap it around your wrist or your upper shoulder.
00:28:39
Speaker
High school boys, am I right?
00:28:43
Speaker
Yeah, I know.
00:28:45
Speaker
Elise, I would like you... Yeah, I'll put it on my shoulder.
00:28:48
Speaker
Can y'all turn away for a sec while I just do that real quick?
00:28:52
Speaker
Of course.
00:28:54
Speaker
I would like you, Shelby, to roll me a history check.
00:28:57
Speaker
I have no idea how to do that.
00:28:59
Speaker
What do I roll?
00:29:00
Speaker
Okay.
00:29:01
Speaker
So you're going to roll a, nope, a D 100.
00:29:03
Speaker
So you're going to roll your percentile dice.
00:29:07
Speaker
It's going to be the two D 10s.
00:29:09
Speaker
The one that has the singles and the one that has the double digits.
00:29:12
Speaker
10%.
00:29:13
Speaker
Is that bad?
00:29:15
Speaker
Under 10.
00:29:16
Speaker
Under 10 on a D 100.
00:29:18
Speaker
Yeah.
00:29:20
Speaker
Well, I rolled a 23.
00:29:21
Speaker
Okay.
00:29:25
Speaker
You guys can continue the scene.
00:29:27
Speaker
Uh,
00:29:29
Speaker
I hate that.
00:29:30
Speaker
I hate that.
00:29:32
Speaker
Yeah, that's our daily lives currently with this.
00:29:35
Speaker
She ties the string to her shoulder.
00:29:38
Speaker
I'm going to make my way over and get something to eat.
00:29:40
Speaker
I'm going to grab some Whoppers and a Coke out of the soda machine.
00:29:44
Speaker
All right.
00:29:44
Speaker
So yeah, you are definitely able, like I said before, you're able to find some candy.
00:29:48
Speaker
You're able to find if you guys wanted to make some hot dogs, some pretzels.
00:29:55
Speaker
I'm basically kind of picturing this movie theater like when I worked at the movie theater.
00:30:00
Speaker
theater and I worked for a big movie company that will go unnamed, but you could get like nachos, you could get French fries, you could get all that kind of stuff.
00:30:11
Speaker
You just had to make it.
00:30:13
Speaker
You said you wanted Whoppers and something else.
00:30:16
Speaker
Yeah, basically whatever you think you could get at, yeah, not the burgers, the malted milk balls.
00:30:22
Speaker
Delicious.
00:30:24
Speaker
Basically, whatever kind of food you would want, like that you would take your daughter to to go see a movie, you would get food like any kind of food that you would want there.
00:30:32
Speaker
You can find in this movie theater.
00:30:34
Speaker
If we're going to go and do something, we probably ought to sugar up a little bit.
00:30:37
Speaker
We've been here for a while.
00:30:38
Speaker
We need to have some energy.
00:30:41
Speaker
Arthur tries to grab a bunch of Reese's Pieces.
00:30:44
Speaker
Um, guys, guys, remember, we already have a bunch of, like, beef jerky and waters and all that from Arthur's parents' shop, so we can't be carrying too much, otherwise we're not going to be able to run from these monsters.
00:30:58
Speaker
Have you seen the movie E.T.?
00:31:01
Speaker
What if we run into an alien?
00:31:03
Speaker
I have the perfect counter.
00:31:05
Speaker
It's Reese's Pieces.
00:31:08
Speaker
I highly doubt we're running into aliens out here, Arthur.
00:31:12
Speaker
We don't know.
00:31:13
Speaker
We saw a walking fucking water tower.
00:31:16
Speaker
I mean, he's not.
00:31:17
Speaker
Y'all saw a walking water tower?
00:31:20
Speaker
Yeah.
00:31:21
Speaker
Yeah.
00:31:21
Speaker
That's crazy.
00:31:26
Speaker
Regardless, we need to get a move on.
00:31:29
Speaker
We need to go find Charlotte and Lance because I have a feeling they're the key to getting out of here.
00:31:35
Speaker
I don't know if y'all want to go back to the nest.
00:31:37
Speaker
That thing was...
00:31:39
Speaker
swarming.
00:31:41
Speaker
I don't know how I got out of there alive, but it was a miracle I did.
00:31:45
Speaker
Have we explored everything in the movie theater?
00:31:47
Speaker
What if there's something here that can help us?
00:31:50
Speaker
If you want to go back to the basement, have fun.
00:31:54
Speaker
Yeah, I'm with Ryan on that.
00:31:55
Speaker
I'm not going back downstairs.
00:31:57
Speaker
No, but we got a lot of seats and we got a lot of different rooms up here.
00:32:02
Speaker
Charlotte and Lance said they had like a stockpile of stuff they've collected since they've been here.
00:32:07
Speaker
I think we ought to go ahead and explore up here for a little bit.
00:32:10
Speaker
Yeah, if they need our help, the least we could do is bring some of their weapons and food.
00:32:17
Speaker
Right.
00:32:18
Speaker
And she kind of just walks over and just stands by Chris with her arms folded like she wants to get out of here, but not sure how to go about it.
00:32:26
Speaker
I want you all to roll alertness for me.
00:32:29
Speaker
52 on a 27.
00:32:29
Speaker
14 on a 67.
00:32:30
Speaker
31 out of 33.
00:32:35
Speaker
48 out of 68.
00:32:35
Speaker
2 out of 28.
00:32:50
Speaker
Nice.
00:32:51
Speaker
Okay.
00:32:52
Speaker
Um, I'm sorry, Melanie, I should have told you not to roll alertness because you're the one this is happening to.
00:32:58
Speaker
Okay, never mind.
00:32:59
Speaker
Ignore me.
00:33:00
Speaker
You all see that Chris puts his arm around Samantha.
00:33:05
Speaker
In what way?
00:33:06
Speaker
Around her hip.
00:33:07
Speaker
Okay.
00:33:08
Speaker
Uh, she turns red.
00:33:09
Speaker
Uh, so can I ask how old you guys all are?
00:33:13
Speaker
So Sam is 18.
00:33:14
Speaker
Ned is 16.
00:33:14
Speaker
Ryan is 17.
00:33:15
Speaker
Okay.
00:33:20
Speaker
Arthur is also 17.
00:33:22
Speaker
Ashley is 18 and Chris is 20.
00:33:26
Speaker
Okay, cool.
00:33:29
Speaker
We're all young adults.
00:33:31
Speaker
Well, I'm going to go check out some of these rooms at the theater, y'all.
00:33:34
Speaker
Anyone want to come with me?
00:33:36
Speaker
I'll come with you.
00:33:40
Speaker
Yeah, I'll come with you, Ned, if you would like.
00:33:45
Speaker
Hey, Sam, you going to watch the doors?
00:33:47
Speaker
And I give her a wink and then turn to walk away.
00:33:51
Speaker
She picks up some stray popcorn that's on the ground and throws it at the back of Ned's head.
00:33:57
Speaker
Must be a good arm to throw some popcorn across a room.
00:34:01
Speaker
It was one of them good ones, but it was like a half-pop scene.
00:34:07
Speaker
I deserved that, but it was still funny.
00:34:09
Speaker
Okay, so let me get this straight.
00:34:12
Speaker
I have Ned, and I have Ashley, and I have Elise, and I have...
00:34:18
Speaker
Arthur all leaving together?
00:34:22
Speaker
You are correct, sir.
00:34:23
Speaker
Okay.
00:34:24
Speaker
Which means Ryan, you're hanging back with Chris and Samantha.
00:34:30
Speaker
I didn't get a chance to say it.
00:34:32
Speaker
Ryan is going to just wander off in a different direction than the group.
00:34:38
Speaker
Yes!
00:34:39
Speaker
Yes!
00:34:41
Speaker
Yes!
00:34:42
Speaker
Okay, perfect.
00:34:44
Speaker
I'm going to roll a d6.
00:34:48
Speaker
And that's a six.
00:34:49
Speaker
We are going to... I just want to say I love you all.
00:34:57
Speaker
We are going to resolve Ryan first.
00:34:59
Speaker
Goodbye, everybody.
00:35:01
Speaker
Yay.
00:35:01
Speaker
So, I need Matt and Nick and Melanie and Shelby to all take off your headsets.
00:35:12
Speaker
Ryan, you walk away from the group.
00:35:16
Speaker
You see that Ned's group is kind of taking the the one through nine wing and you see that Chris and Samantha are kind of having a lovey dovey moment as kind of weird as that is for, you know, the current situation.
00:35:35
Speaker
But hey, love finds a way, right?
00:35:37
Speaker
Yep.
00:35:40
Speaker
Where is it that you would like to go?
00:35:44
Speaker
He's going to head off towards the back maintenance area, I'd assume.
00:35:51
Speaker
Like where all the film equipment would be.
00:35:55
Speaker
Okay, perfect.
00:35:56
Speaker
Because from what I know of movie theaters, having not worked in one, a lot of that stuff is kept more upstairs because that's where the projectors and stuff are.
00:36:04
Speaker
Yes, the projectors are all in like...
00:36:07
Speaker
Almost one big room.
00:36:09
Speaker
The so you have in the movie theater, you have your lobby, you have your two wings.
00:36:15
Speaker
The up above you is basically one big hallway that has all the projectors into all the different theaters.
00:36:23
Speaker
Yeah, he's going to go up there because he figures he can then watch the group if need be, because he assumes they're going to be checking out the different theaters.
00:36:30
Speaker
Okay, perfect.
00:36:33
Speaker
Is there anything up there that you're specifically looking for or you're just kind of playing lookout?
00:36:39
Speaker
Before we go too much further, I just want to say I'm only doing this because I literally rolled a dice and rolled a perfect 100.
00:36:46
Speaker
So I was trying to decide something and screwed myself.
00:36:52
Speaker
So just wanted to get that out there.
00:36:55
Speaker
That's fair.
00:36:56
Speaker
Okay.
00:36:56
Speaker
Okay.
00:36:58
Speaker
Yeah, so Ryan is going up there and he's glancing around, but he's not really looking for anything.
00:37:04
Speaker
And he takes the cigarette out of his mouth that he hasn't actually lit and just kind of stares at it.
Tension in the Movie Theater
00:37:09
Speaker
And then takes out his pack, puts the cigarette back in, just kind of stares at it.
00:37:17
Speaker
And then his hand spasms and crushes it and he just drops it to the ground.
00:37:23
Speaker
He just kind of stares, shudders and just keeps moving further into the projectors.
00:37:29
Speaker
Nice.
00:37:30
Speaker
I like it.
00:37:31
Speaker
I like it.
00:37:31
Speaker
I like it.
00:37:32
Speaker
I like it.
00:37:33
Speaker
So my question is, you said you want to kind of do look out for the other group, right?
00:37:41
Speaker
You're kind of keeping an eye on them.
00:37:44
Speaker
Yes.
00:37:44
Speaker
He figured he would glance in like around the projectors into like all the theaters as he moved up just to see if he could see anything.
00:37:52
Speaker
because I believe I still have Chris's handgun.
00:37:57
Speaker
You do.
00:37:57
Speaker
You do indeed.
00:37:59
Speaker
So.
00:38:00
Speaker
I am going to play a fun little game.
00:38:05
Speaker
Okay.
00:38:07
Speaker
So basically the way things are going to work is you are going to have theaters one through five on your left, six through nine on your right, where between where nine and ten are because ten would start the other wing.
00:38:22
Speaker
This is a 16 theater movie theater.
00:38:26
Speaker
OK, so ten would start the other wing.
00:38:29
Speaker
And it started off originally as a nine theater movie theater.
00:38:34
Speaker
And then as they added more, they added the other wing.
00:38:36
Speaker
So that's why there's less than the other way in the middle between nine and ten.
00:38:40
Speaker
It's basically just blank wall because that's where the concessions would be underneath you.
00:38:44
Speaker
And that's like basically where the lobby would be is between nine and ten.
00:38:52
Speaker
You are able to at this point control the lights.
00:38:57
Speaker
You could turn on the projector if you would like to.
00:39:01
Speaker
You could you basically when you look through the window where the projector is, which I will say is an open window.
00:39:11
Speaker
There is no glass.
00:39:12
Speaker
There's no plastic.
00:39:13
Speaker
There's nothing between you and the theater.
00:39:16
Speaker
So when I bring back Ned's group, you can stay in with that because you will be there.
00:39:23
Speaker
Able to hear and see them, yeah.
00:39:25
Speaker
Yes, you will be able to see them.
00:39:26
Speaker
You will be able to communicate with them.
00:39:30
Speaker
I'm going to give you a heads up.
00:39:32
Speaker
Okay.
00:39:33
Speaker
There is something in one of these theaters.
00:39:35
Speaker
Okay.
00:39:37
Speaker
This is Breck talking.
00:39:38
Speaker
Can I still mute myself and just listen in so that way they don't know I'm listening?
00:39:44
Speaker
Okay.
00:39:45
Speaker
Yeah, 100%.
00:39:45
Speaker
Okay, cool.
00:39:45
Speaker
Because they would not know that I could hear them.
00:39:50
Speaker
The only way that they would know is if they were able to see you through the window.
00:39:54
Speaker
So if you're standing far enough back or anything, that is, you know, 100% fine.
00:40:00
Speaker
They would have to like super, they would have to basically crit succeed on an alertness check in order to even know that you're there.
00:40:08
Speaker
Yeah, because Ryan wouldn't turn on any of the lights up in the projectors anyways.
00:40:14
Speaker
Right.
00:40:17
Speaker
And the house lights would basically be up, so there would really be no reason to look into the projector area.
00:40:23
Speaker
Yeah.
00:40:24
Speaker
Okay.
00:40:25
Speaker
So that works.
00:40:26
Speaker
Yeah.
00:40:27
Speaker
Ryan is going to, after doing what he did, is going to just start checking through the different windows, being really hesitant about it.
00:40:38
Speaker
Like just kind of edging up to the side of the wall that has the opening, just kind of glancing around a little bit.
00:40:43
Speaker
Okay.
00:40:47
Speaker
I want you to give me an alertness check and a stealth check.
00:40:54
Speaker
Which would you like first?
00:40:57
Speaker
Give me alertness first.
00:41:00
Speaker
Okay.
00:41:02
Speaker
That is a 10 on a 67.
00:41:05
Speaker
Perfect.
00:41:05
Speaker
Okay.
00:41:06
Speaker
You are able to tell that in theater number nine...
00:41:11
Speaker
there is some movement.
00:41:13
Speaker
And as you are looking down at theater number nine, you see, I'm not sure what theater they're going to go into first, but you see that there is some movement theater number nine and it's not them.
00:41:26
Speaker
What you see is what can only be described as one of the inside out men.
00:41:32
Speaker
So Arthur did open the page to that.
00:41:36
Speaker
Yes.
00:41:36
Speaker
And kind of showed it off.
00:41:37
Speaker
So I'd be able to tell right away that's what it is, right?
00:41:41
Speaker
Absolutely.
00:41:42
Speaker
Okay.
00:41:43
Speaker
Now I am going to say that it does seem preoccupied with something in the theater.
00:41:49
Speaker
So I am going to let you roll your stealth at a plus 20, especially because you're not really making noise up there.
00:41:59
Speaker
So you, you know what, go ahead and give me stealth at a plus 30.
00:42:02
Speaker
All right.
00:42:02
Speaker
That is a 28 on a modified 83.
00:42:06
Speaker
Okay.
00:42:11
Speaker
So it does not see you.
00:42:13
Speaker
But there is one thing I want you to keep into you in consideration here.
00:42:18
Speaker
There is no glass in any of these windows.
00:42:24
Speaker
So if you make a noise to try to warn everybody else that there is something in theater nine.
00:42:31
Speaker
I will be rolling alertness.
00:42:34
Speaker
Okay.
00:42:34
Speaker
So I thought you were trying to imply I missed something and it was going to come stab me in the back.
00:42:38
Speaker
I got worried.
00:42:39
Speaker
Nope.
00:42:40
Speaker
Okay.
00:42:41
Speaker
No, trust me.
00:42:42
Speaker
These are, these are the kind of monsters that when they know something there, they're going to shriek.
00:42:46
Speaker
They're going to, they're going to be loud.
00:42:47
Speaker
You're going to know that it knows you're there.
00:42:49
Speaker
Okay.
00:42:50
Speaker
How big is this thing?
00:42:52
Speaker
It's like a normal size person.
00:42:54
Speaker
Five, like the one that you're seeing right there, probably about five, eight,
00:43:01
Speaker
It looks fairly muscular, not like pro wrestler, bodybuilder, that kind of thing, but definitely more of an athletic build.
00:43:11
Speaker
But the thing that you notice is that, like you saw in Arthur's book, it has no skin.
00:43:17
Speaker
It basically looks like the skin was all stripped off.
00:43:21
Speaker
On its fingers, where its fingers are, at the tip of its fingers, it has claws.
00:43:27
Speaker
And it has claws.
00:43:27
Speaker
When I say that there are claws, they're like foot long claws.
00:43:32
Speaker
It also has claws on its feet.
00:43:35
Speaker
You did not really look at what Arthur showed you like you didn't really read the passage.
00:43:40
Speaker
But in his cryptids book, it does say that they are very good at climbing walls.
00:43:47
Speaker
You also see that it has sharp teeth and it has no eyelids.
00:43:55
Speaker
So it is constantly looking around.
00:43:58
Speaker
Can I see what it seems like it's preoccupied with in the room?
00:44:03
Speaker
It is behind the back of a chair.
00:44:08
Speaker
It looks like what it's preoccupied with is in one of the seats and from where you're at, you cannot see what it is.
00:44:15
Speaker
Okay.
00:44:16
Speaker
Is it doing anything that would give me a hint at all?
00:44:19
Speaker
Like, is it trying to pick something up?
00:44:20
Speaker
Is it just staring at it?
00:44:22
Speaker
It's like wildly clawing at the seats.
00:44:27
Speaker
So it's like attacking the seat?
00:44:29
Speaker
Yeah, it's attacking one certain area of the seats.
00:44:33
Speaker
And you see just the padding, the stuffing of the seat just flying through the air as it's wildly clawing at something you can't see.
00:44:42
Speaker
But I will say this, with a 10 on your alertness...
00:44:47
Speaker
It does not look like you see any blood, any flesh, anything like that.
00:44:52
Speaker
Really, the only thing that you're seeing flying through the air is like the stuffing, the padding of the seat.
00:44:58
Speaker
So it's just it seems like it's just attacking the chair.
00:45:02
Speaker
Pretty much from where you're at, from what you can see.
00:45:04
Speaker
Yes.
00:45:05
Speaker
Yeah.
00:45:06
Speaker
Is it making any like big noise?
00:45:09
Speaker
Is it like screaming or anything like that?
00:45:11
Speaker
Or is it just like tearing into the chair silently?
00:45:14
Speaker
It's tearing into the chair, but at certain points you can hear like a I just have to say.
00:45:28
Speaker
That was really good and also scary.
00:45:31
Speaker
Thank you.
00:45:31
Speaker
I appreciate that.
00:45:33
Speaker
I've been working a lot on my monster sound effects.
00:45:37
Speaker
I'm no Matt Mercer, but I'm trying.
00:45:39
Speaker
Yeah, that was good.
00:45:43
Speaker
Thank you.
00:45:45
Speaker
So it's not being loud, but it is definitely making exertion noises as it's clawing into the seat.
00:45:52
Speaker
Okay.
00:45:53
Speaker
Ryan is going to step back and move to one of the earlier theaters and pull out one of the candles out of his duffel bag.
00:46:04
Speaker
Okay.
00:46:05
Speaker
And light it for whatever theater they end up going into first.
00:46:10
Speaker
Okay.
00:46:11
Speaker
So at that point, I will get the rest of the group in.
00:46:17
Speaker
One second.
00:46:18
Speaker
How far would it be from the window to the floor of the theater?
00:46:24
Speaker
Because usually the projectors are at the top of the slopes, so it's not usually as far.
00:46:31
Speaker
Right.
00:46:33
Speaker
How far would it be?
00:46:35
Speaker
So if you were to try to go through the window or say something from the theater was going to try to get up to you, your window is only about three or four feet above the top of the what would be the headrest of the topmost row.
00:46:52
Speaker
So we'll throw into we'll throw this as an example out there.
00:46:57
Speaker
Say Ned was trying to get into the room that you're at from where wherever he is.
00:47:03
Speaker
He would very easily be able to get into your room.
00:47:07
Speaker
Okay.
00:47:08
Speaker
And vice versa.
00:47:09
Speaker
If you were trying to get out of that room, it would not be you wouldn't take any damage falling if that's what you're asking.
00:47:16
Speaker
Okay.
00:47:17
Speaker
So it wouldn't be like I'd break a leg trying to jump out of the one of these windows.
00:47:22
Speaker
No, absolutely not.
00:47:23
Speaker
You could very easily just jump through and land on one of the seats.
00:47:28
Speaker
You'd drop maybe four feet.
00:47:30
Speaker
Okay.
00:47:31
Speaker
Yeah, it wouldn't be much of a drop at all.
00:47:33
Speaker
Like, if you were standing on a seat and turned around, you could stare at the projector.
00:47:38
Speaker
Okay.
00:47:39
Speaker
Okay, cool.
00:47:40
Speaker
All right.
00:47:43
Speaker
Yeah, then I will have to wait for them.
00:47:47
Speaker
Just to give you a heads up, whenever they come into probably their second theater, I'd assume I'd find them in, because I can't, having taken this long, I went to find them in their first one.
00:48:00
Speaker
Unless they go into Theater 9 first.
00:48:03
Speaker
True.
00:48:04
Speaker
I'm hoping they're not that dumb, but we'll see.
00:48:07
Speaker
But yeah, basically they'll catch him in like this second or third theater, wherever they go into, because we've taken a while.
00:48:16
Speaker
He will light the candle and just kind of set it in the windowsill when they come in, hoping that they notice it.
00:48:22
Speaker
Okay.
00:48:23
Speaker
I will make them all roll an alertness check.
00:48:28
Speaker
Once they get into their second or third theater.
00:48:32
Speaker
Again, assuming that they don't go into nine first.
00:48:35
Speaker
Yeah.
00:48:36
Speaker
Okay.
00:48:36
Speaker
Let me get everyone else back in.
00:48:37
Speaker
How do you want to play this?
00:48:39
Speaker
Do you want to say that you're off and mute, but really be here?
00:48:44
Speaker
Do you just want to mute and be here?
00:48:46
Speaker
How do you want to play this?
00:48:48
Speaker
I was going to say off and mute.
00:48:53
Speaker
And then if they ever notice the candle, kind of come in then.
00:48:59
Speaker
Okay, perfect.
00:49:00
Speaker
And you don't have to pretend to like pull me in if you don't want.
00:49:05
Speaker
But yeah, I just don't know there.
00:49:08
Speaker
I'm there initially.
00:49:10
Speaker
Excellent.
00:49:11
Speaker
Okay, I will get them back in here real quick then.
00:49:15

Thank you so much for listening and let's get you back to the show.
00:51:21
Speaker
So you guys decide to go down the hallway with theaters one through nine.
00:51:27
Speaker
I'm going to tell you this.
00:51:29
Speaker
You have theaters one through five on your left hand side.
00:51:32
Speaker
You have six through nine on your right hand side.
00:51:36
Speaker
The other hallway that you guys did not go down has 10 through 16.
00:51:39
Speaker
This is a theater with 16 theaters.
00:51:43
Speaker
So I am going to let you decide where you're going to go first.
00:51:49
Speaker
Basically, as you're walking down this hallway, you see theater one and theater nine.
00:51:55
Speaker
One is on your left.
00:51:55
Speaker
Nine is on your right.
00:51:58
Speaker
And basically, for those of us that live in the Rockford area, picture Showplace 16.
00:52:05
Speaker
Yep.
00:52:05
Speaker
I'm going to do my best to keep describing it for those listeners that don't, but that is what I want you to picture.
00:52:14
Speaker
All righty.
00:52:15
Speaker
So you're going to see Theater 1 on your left, Theater 9 on your right.
00:52:19
Speaker
After Theater 8, you're going to see a little mini concession bar.
00:52:23
Speaker
You're going to see bathrooms on the left.
00:52:25
Speaker
You're going to see posters for upcoming movies.
00:52:29
Speaker
All that kind of fun stuff.
00:52:30
Speaker
Do any of the doors to the theaters look different from each other, or are they all virtually the same?
00:52:37
Speaker
This entire theater, from what you have seen, looks like it's open for business.
00:52:42
Speaker
But but like none of the doors look like one of them was where they.
00:52:47
Speaker
Oh my goodness.
00:52:51
Speaker
Charlotte.
00:52:52
Speaker
Lance and Charlotte.
00:52:53
Speaker
Yeah, Lance and Charlotte.
00:52:55
Speaker
Like one where they might have been holding up.
00:52:59
Speaker
No.
00:53:02
Speaker
Well, I'll say we just kind of poke our head in all of them and see if we can't see anything.
00:53:09
Speaker
Are the main lights on or are they dark, like you're actually going in to see a movie?
00:53:15
Speaker
No, all the house lights are on.
00:53:16
Speaker
Okay.
00:53:19
Speaker
I'm going to go to the left and go to theater one.
00:53:22
Speaker
I'm going to stick with you, man.
00:53:24
Speaker
I don't want one of us to run into one of them monsters.
00:53:28
Speaker
I got my broom spear.
00:53:31
Speaker
Elise, are you going to join them in Theater One?
00:53:34
Speaker
Yeah, I'll just follow them.
00:53:36
Speaker
Okay, Ashley's going to follow you guys as well.
00:53:38
Speaker
You guys walk into Theater One, and basically it looks like you guys are the first ones there to pick your seats for a movie.
00:53:48
Speaker
There is nothing in this theater.
00:53:50
Speaker
Nothing is playing on the screen.
00:53:52
Speaker
The house lights are up.
00:53:55
Speaker
There's nothing here.
00:53:56
Speaker
It's just an empty theater.
00:53:59
Speaker
All right.
00:54:00
Speaker
We should get out of here.
00:54:01
Speaker
Yep.
00:54:01
Speaker
Next one.
00:54:02
Speaker
Number two.
00:54:04
Speaker
I should repeat that action till we see something new.
00:54:08
Speaker
Yeah.
00:54:08
Speaker
That way we don't have to play out each and every empty room.
00:54:10
Speaker
Yeah.
00:54:11
Speaker
Okay.
00:54:12
Speaker
You guys go into theater two.
00:54:14
Speaker
Absolutely empty.
00:54:15
Speaker
Do you guys want to check like the bathrooms and like halfway down the hallway is like what would be like the mini concession storage rooms?
00:54:26
Speaker
Like, do you guys want to check everything?
00:54:27
Speaker
Are you just checking the theaters?
00:54:30
Speaker
I say we start with the theater.
00:54:32
Speaker
Yeah.
00:54:33
Speaker
I'll probably poke my head over the counter of the concessions just as whenever we walk past it, but I'm not going to like try and go in there.
00:54:40
Speaker
Okay.
00:54:40
Speaker
Your, um, the concessions would be between theater seven and eight.
00:54:46
Speaker
So we got quite a few theaters to make it through first.
00:54:49
Speaker
Yes.
00:54:49
Speaker
All right.
00:54:50
Speaker
You guys get into theater three.
00:54:52
Speaker
I need everybody to roll me alertness.
00:54:56
Speaker
Hooray.
00:54:57
Speaker
Hooray.
00:55:02
Speaker
71 on a 27.
00:55:02
Speaker
90 on a 33.
00:55:07
Speaker
29 out of 20?
00:55:09
Speaker
Oh, you guys are so lucky.
00:55:15
Speaker
Ashley rolled a 10.
00:55:17
Speaker
So you guys walk into this theater.
00:55:19
Speaker
It is completely empty.
00:55:21
Speaker
But then you see Ashley turns around as you guys are going to leave and goes,
00:55:27
Speaker
Guys, what's that?
00:55:29
Speaker
And she points up at the projector window and you guys see a lit candle in the projector window.
00:55:36
Speaker
That looks like something we should go check out.
00:55:41
Speaker
Yeah, you ain't kidding.
00:55:43
Speaker
Anybody know how to get up there?
00:55:45
Speaker
So the way the theaters are is the projector window, if you were to look at what would be the headrest of a seat,
00:55:54
Speaker
At the very top row, the projector window is only about three or four feet above that.
00:55:58
Speaker
So as it sits, you guys could basically stand on the top row seats and see into the projector room.
00:56:07
Speaker
Isn't there some sort of like manager door that we could just get to to get to that room?
00:56:13
Speaker
Scaling a wall.
00:56:15
Speaker
I mean, there is 100% that as well.
00:56:18
Speaker
I mean, if we just go bust the door in, if there is something else in here, they're going to see us.
00:56:23
Speaker
If one of us poke our head up over there, there's a chance that maybe we won't be seen if there is somebody in there.
00:56:29
Speaker
Well, I'm not poking my head in there.
00:56:32
Speaker
I'll do it.
00:56:35
Speaker
All right, I'll come up there, witch, and you just tell us what you see.
00:56:39
Speaker
Okay, so Elise, you're going to, since you said you're going to, you're going to lead the way up the stairs, and you see, again, it's an empty theater.
00:56:49
Speaker
You're kind of side-eyeing every row as you're walking past him.
00:56:53
Speaker
You don't see anything there.
00:56:56
Speaker
You make it to the top row.
00:56:57
Speaker
You get to the middle of the top row.
00:57:00
Speaker
stand on the seat, and again, you're like face to face with this lit candle.
00:57:06
Speaker
And on the other side in the projector room, you see Ryan looking back at you.
00:57:12
Speaker
Oh, don't make a sound.
00:57:16
Speaker
And Ryan is going to slowly pull his fingers up to his lips and just say, meet me in the lobby.
00:57:23
Speaker
Don't let them talk.
00:57:24
Speaker
And then he's just going to put the candle out.
00:57:25
Speaker
I don't know if I'm going to respond to that.
00:57:28
Speaker
What's going on up there?
00:57:30
Speaker
She at least puts a finger to her lips and looks at.
00:57:34
Speaker
I don't remember your names.
00:57:35
Speaker
Arthur and Ryan.
00:57:38
Speaker
No, Ryan was there.
00:57:39
Speaker
Arthur and Ned.
00:57:41
Speaker
And Ashley.
00:57:41
Speaker
And Ashley.
00:57:43
Speaker
And like kind of shoes them out of the theater.
00:57:47
Speaker
Ashley kind of does like a little as she puts her hand over her mouth.
00:57:53
Speaker
Yeah, Arthur shuts up.
00:57:55
Speaker
As soon as we get out the door, I'm going to in hushed tones.
00:57:59
Speaker
Hey, what's going on?
00:58:00
Speaker
What did you see up there?
00:58:02
Speaker
You rushed us out pretty quick.
00:58:05
Speaker
I saw Ryan.
00:58:08
Speaker
I think that's his name.
00:58:09
Speaker
Ryan?
00:58:11
Speaker
Yeah, the other guy.
00:58:11
Speaker
Your friend?
00:58:12
Speaker
Yeah.
00:58:13
Speaker
Yeah, he said don't make a sound and come out here.
00:58:17
Speaker
All right, all right.
00:58:19
Speaker
So we just hadn't back?
00:58:21
Speaker
What?
00:58:22
Speaker
I think he said he'd meet us.
00:58:24
Speaker
I think that's what he said.
00:58:26
Speaker
All right.
00:58:26
Speaker
Yep.
00:58:27
Speaker
He told you guys to meet him in the lobby.
00:58:31
Speaker
Well, let's all go to the lobby.
00:58:36
Speaker
All right.
00:58:37
Speaker
At that point.
00:58:39
Speaker
Elise might be a little more concerned and would kind of look for the door to that area to make sure he's actually coming out.
00:58:49
Speaker
Okay.
00:58:51
Speaker
As you guys get to the lobby, you can definitely see the door that would lead upstairs to the projector room.
00:58:58
Speaker
And I'm assuming they see you come out of it, Ryan?
00:59:03
Speaker
Yes.
00:59:04
Speaker
He comes out of it and immediately starts grabbing anything he can find that's heavy to gently and quietly place in front of the door.
00:59:12
Speaker
Okay.
00:59:13
Speaker
Hey, Ryan.
00:59:14
Speaker
Shut up.
00:59:15
Speaker
You're acting funny.
00:59:15
Speaker
And just holds a finger up to his lips.
00:59:18
Speaker
Ryan, carrots.
00:59:20
Speaker
I miss.
00:59:20
Speaker
And Ryan comes over to you guys and is like, okay, so fuck the theaters.
00:59:27
Speaker
Theater 9 has one of those missing his skin claw guys that we talked about that kind of, Chris.
00:59:35
Speaker
So let's not go anywhere near that part of the fucking building.
00:59:39
Speaker
And at that point, I need you all to take your headsets back off again.
00:59:43
Speaker
Go ahead, Shelby.
00:59:44
Speaker
What were you going to say?
00:59:45
Speaker
I was going to ask if Melanie could hear that because I thought she was in the lobby, but sorry.
00:59:49
Speaker
Yep.
00:59:50
Speaker
I'm going to do her scene and then you guys are going to come back and she's going to hear that when I'll bring you guys all back and yeah, she'll hear that part.
00:59:59
Speaker
Okay.
00:59:59
Speaker
Goodbye.
01:00:01
Speaker
Goodbye.
01:00:01
Speaker
Bye-bye.
01:00:12
Speaker
So you see that Ned's group goes off towards Theater 1 through 9.
01:00:17
Speaker
Okay.
01:00:18
Speaker
They go into Theater 1.
01:00:20
Speaker
You see Ryan goes through a door, and as he's going through the door, you see he starts heading up a set of stairs.
01:00:29
Speaker
Okay.
01:00:31
Speaker
Okay.
01:00:32
Speaker
That is what you see.
01:00:33
Speaker
You are alone with Chris.
01:00:39
Speaker
And he does say it like that.
01:00:44
Speaker
Because he does still have his arm around your waist.
01:00:48
Speaker
Okay.
01:00:49
Speaker
So Sam is bright red currently.
01:00:52
Speaker
Like it, it, uh, the group didn't make a big fuss about it, which is what she was, you know, kind of hoping about, but she looks, why are you rolling dice?
01:01:02
Speaker
Continue.
01:01:04
Speaker
He crit failed his alertness to see if you were bright red.
01:01:07
Speaker
So he still has his arm around your waist.
01:01:12
Speaker
Sam will slowly look at him and kind of sidestep away because she's.
01:01:17
Speaker
Oh, my God.
01:01:17
Speaker
I'm sorry.
01:01:19
Speaker
Too soon.
01:01:19
Speaker
I'm.
01:01:21
Speaker
Idiot.
01:01:21
Speaker
God damn it.
01:01:25
Speaker
That's fine.
01:01:27
Speaker
I just wasn't expecting it.
01:01:30
Speaker
Look, I've never told Ashley this, but I've liked you for a long time.
01:01:35
Speaker
And I always thought it was kind of, you know, that Ashley would find it kind of weird that I had a crush on, you know, my sister's friend.
01:01:42
Speaker
And I'm sorry.
01:01:46
Speaker
I'm sorry, but I mean, I've had a crush on you for a long time, too.
01:01:49
Speaker
So, I mean, I guess it was bound to happen.
01:01:53
Speaker
She's still extremely bright red.
01:01:55
Speaker
Yeah.
01:01:57
Speaker
At this point, he's looking at you and notices.
01:02:00
Speaker
I, I, uh, I'm, oh, I didn't mean to embarrass you.
01:02:04
Speaker
God, I'm so sorry.
01:02:05
Speaker
No, it's fine.
01:02:08
Speaker
Oh, geez.
01:02:08
Speaker
That aside, do you think it was smart for them, for all of us to split up?
01:02:13
Speaker
I mean, we all have these, these knots that Ned put on our arms, right?
01:02:19
Speaker
All we would have to do is check for those.
01:02:22
Speaker
Yeah, but something just feels off.
01:02:25
Speaker
I don't like this Elise girl.
01:02:27
Speaker
I'm hoping we can trust her.
01:02:28
Speaker
I'm worried that something happened to Charlie and Lance.
01:02:32
Speaker
And I know you don't know who they are, but I feel like we can trust them and that they're probably our only key out of here.
01:02:38
Speaker
So are you thinking we need to go to this nest place?
01:02:41
Speaker
Honestly, yeah.
01:02:44
Speaker
I do think we need to go to this nest place.
01:02:46
Speaker
As much as it sounds horrible...
01:02:49
Speaker
But I feel like they're in some sort of trouble.
01:02:52
Speaker
I need our help.
01:02:53
Speaker
Yeah, I get that.
01:02:56
Speaker
But if it's crawling with monsters like this Elise person says that it is, this is going to sound stupid.
A Tender Moment Amid Chaos
01:03:03
Speaker
This is going to sound childish.
01:03:04
Speaker
And I'm sorry, we just kind of admitted our feelings to each other.
01:03:11
Speaker
I don't want to really see anything happen to you.
01:03:14
Speaker
I know.
01:03:15
Speaker
I don't want anything to happen to you either because I just found you.
01:03:20
Speaker
We've got to get out of here.
01:03:21
Speaker
And I'm hoping- That still throws me for a loop that you said I died.
01:03:25
Speaker
I don't- I mean, that's what the soldiers told us, is that you were dead.
01:03:29
Speaker
But you said you buried me.
01:03:31
Speaker
You said you saw my body.
01:03:32
Speaker
At this point, I don't know what I saw anymore.
01:03:34
Speaker
I'm hoping that you can come back with us if that was really your body or if that was one of those things that can mimic us.
01:03:43
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, me too.
01:03:45
Speaker
I'll tell you that inside out thing that I saw, that, Sam, the enemy's using some fucked up shit.
01:03:51
Speaker
I don't doubt that.
01:03:52
Speaker
If it has anything to do with this place, then we're all screwed.
01:03:55
Speaker
Yeah, if it's in, I'm still getting used to this new realm thing, but if it's in, you know, the real world, our world, that means it's not isolated to this realm.
01:04:07
Speaker
That means these things are actually out there, Sam.
01:04:10
Speaker
Or there's some sort of
01:04:11
Speaker
riff or something?
01:04:13
Speaker
Maybe.
01:04:15
Speaker
I don't know.
01:04:16
Speaker
Sam is going to turn from him and walk over to the door that Elise had come through.
01:04:23
Speaker
And does it have a window?
01:04:26
Speaker
Is it like a normal movie theater where you can see out?
01:04:29
Speaker
Yeah, 100%.
01:04:30
Speaker
Okay.
01:04:31
Speaker
So she's going to walk over to the window and kind of look out to see if there's anything like
01:04:39
Speaker
lurking or watching them or anything like that.
01:04:42
Speaker
Okay, go ahead and roll me an alertness check.
01:04:46
Speaker
Oh no, no, no, no.
01:04:53
Speaker
That was good.
01:04:55
Speaker
It was a, I thought it was double zeros for a second, like all the way across the board, but no, it was a three on a 68.
01:05:06
Speaker
Okay, perfect.
01:05:07
Speaker
With a three, you are able to see that the lights are on in the parking lot.
01:05:14
Speaker
Okay.
01:05:14
Speaker
However, there are no cars.
01:05:18
Speaker
The parking lot is as barren as if you were to drive by the movie theater at four o'clock in the morning.
01:05:25
Speaker
Okay.
01:05:25
Speaker
At the very edge of the light, you see a figure lurking.
01:05:32
Speaker
Like a humanoid figure or like a decrepit figure?
01:05:36
Speaker
Yes, a humanoid figure.
01:05:38
Speaker
Um, Chris?
01:05:39
Speaker
They're not moving.
01:05:40
Speaker
They're not coming towards you.
01:05:42
Speaker
They're just standing at the very edge of the light.
01:05:45
Speaker
Like, you almost have to think to yourself, like, do I really see that?
01:05:51
Speaker
Is that someone out there?
01:05:53
Speaker
Like, that's kind of what you're thinking to yourself right now.
01:05:55
Speaker
Like, because you're just not certain.
01:05:57
Speaker
Uh, she raises a hand to see if it mimics her movements.
01:06:02
Speaker
It does not.
01:06:04
Speaker
And at that point, the door that Ryan came through opens up and Ryan comes back in as well as everybody else meets in the lobby.
01:06:16
Speaker
Sam, as you are looking out the window, like I said, the door that Ryan came through bursts open.
01:06:22
Speaker
Ryan comes out and you see the other group come in and meet Ryan and Ryan's like, just be quiet, just be quiet.
01:06:31
Speaker
And you turn around from the front door and that's what you see.
01:06:34
Speaker
And Chris steps forward and he goes, Hey, what?
01:06:39
Speaker
You especially be quiet.
01:06:42
Speaker
You're already.
01:06:46
Speaker
You see all the color drain from Chris's faces.
01:06:48
Speaker
He immediately knows what you're talking about, but he still asks, what, what, what, um, what, what do you mean?
01:06:56
Speaker
Theater nine man with no skin, fucked up looking claws.
01:07:04
Speaker
Everybody needs to be quiet.
01:07:05
Speaker
And I think we need to find a new safe.
01:07:09
Speaker
And he does the air quotes place.
01:07:11
Speaker
Cause I think we may have,
01:07:16
Speaker
like that.
01:07:18
Speaker
The rollin' and the ooo.
01:07:20
Speaker
As you guys are talking, you hear what sounds like nails on a chalkboard.
01:07:27
Speaker
And you hear from... I'm the son of a...
01:07:40
Speaker
As the inside out man kicks the door to theater nine open and steps out into the lobby with you.
Cliffhanger Confrontation
01:07:50
Speaker
And that's where we're going to end this episode.
01:07:52
Speaker
Oh my dick.
01:07:53
Speaker
I'm going to be honest.
01:07:58
Speaker
The moment you introduced the inside out man, I knew you were going to pull that shit.
01:08:03
Speaker
To be fair, the, Oh, the, uh, was because it crit succeeded on its alertness.
01:08:09
Speaker
So it,
01:08:13
Speaker
You lit the candle.
01:08:16
Speaker
Yeah, I can't talk.
01:08:18
Speaker
Those things are open.
01:08:19
Speaker
Fucking hear me.
01:08:23
Speaker
I had to get your attention quietly and I had a candle and I think maybe a flashlight.
01:08:31
Speaker
And a gun, but that's not, you know.
01:08:33
Speaker
And a pocket knife with your name on it.
01:08:35
Speaker
Seems like you had a lot of options that weren't candles.
01:08:42
Speaker
And what would have gotten your attention?
01:08:45
Speaker
Yeah, what quietly would have got your attention?
01:08:48
Speaker
The candle.
01:08:48
Speaker
So I do need to ask Shelby, how was your first Delta Green episode?
01:08:54
Speaker
I'm very confused.
01:08:57
Speaker
That's normal.
01:08:58
Speaker
Welcome to Delta Green.
01:08:59
Speaker
Yeah, welcome to Delta Green.
01:09:03
Speaker
As I said at the beginning of the episode, Shelby is going to be here for basically this arc.
01:09:10
Speaker
Awesome.

No spoilers.
01:10:07
Speaker
Oh, I'm not spoiling what four episodes, but just be prepared to hear extensively about Kevin James Taint.
01:10:14
Speaker
It's an important taint.
01:10:16
Speaker
It has to be talked about.
01:10:17
Speaker
I don't understand what the problem is.
01:10:19
Speaker
It's important.
01:10:21
Speaker
Oh, my God.
