Dan-ily Remaster
Like all good actual play TTRPGs, the first episode had our characters meeting in a tavern! It went off the rails pretty quick after that though.
We've all learned a lot over the past couple years. About editing, about our show, about ourselves. In their off-time Russell decided to revisit the first episode. This took a very long time, you would not believe, Enjoy!
Back to regular release next week!

00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,720
Please check the episode
description for content one.
4
00:00:20,300 --> 00:00:24,540
Hey everybody, it's me, Daniel.
These are my dreads.
5
00:00:25,180 --> 00:00:27,300
I'm Gabriel Fernandez, I'm the
host of the show.
6
00:00:28,980 --> 00:00:33,540
Thanks for checking us out.
This is our first episode at our
7
00:00:33,660 --> 00:00:37,720
computer, and I just want to
give you a little bit of a
8
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:41,800
historical note.
This is not actually the first
9
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:47,600
episode that we put in.
This is the same thing, but the
10
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:52,760
episode we put out, it was fine.
But we've learned a lot about
11
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:57,080
producing podcasts since then.
We wanted to make sure that the
12
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:02,120
first thing you hear is not
traffic.
13
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:07,400
Yeah, we can say it.
So please enjoy this remastered
14
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,320
version of the first episode of
our show.
15
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,960
Hope you enjoy it and hope you
enjoy the rest of the show.
16
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:21,840
Thanks.
Bye.
17
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:29,960
All right, so welcome everyone
to Daniel's Thread Tales, our
18
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,520
first episode here.
This evening we're going to be
19
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,720
playing Trail of Cthulhu.
Specifically, we're going to be
20
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,520
playing a version of the
adventure The Dance in the Blood
21
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,520
by Graham Wolmsley.
It's a pretty great little
22
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:50,080
adventure, I think.
And let us introduce you to our
23
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:54,720
characters this evening going
around Russell, Tell tell us
24
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:56,000
about yourself and your
character.
25
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,360
Hello, I'm Russell and I'll be
playing Doctor Michael Laws.
26
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,280
He's the Doctor.
Is there anything we should know
27
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,440
about Doctor Laws?
Anything special we should know
28
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:05,720
about him?
What do you think the most
29
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,360
interesting thing about Doctor
Laws?
30
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,120
Good question.
My love for humanity extends to
31
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,360
those around me, like my brother
and my wife.
32
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,600
I haven't been entirely
faithful, but it still counts.
33
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:22,120
OK, that's you love her.
You just haven't always been
34
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,080
faithful to her.
You know what happened?
35
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:25,600
All right, Nathan, how about
you?
36
00:02:26,920 --> 00:02:30,120
Hi, I'm Nathan.
He him pronouns I and I am
37
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,240
playing Helen Long, an artist.
What's something interesting we
38
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:38,160
should know about Helen?
Well, at the moment she's bored
39
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:43,000
out of her God damn mind and to
inspire her absurdist, her
40
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,640
surreal artwork, she needs
something dark and twisted and
41
00:02:47,640 --> 00:02:50,280
exciting.
And I, I get the feeling that
42
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,240
she's going to regret that.
But you know, we'll see how it
43
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,040
goes.
Last but not least, is Dominic.
44
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:01,600
Hello, I'm Dominic.
I'm playing Tom Jones.
45
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:06,200
Jonesy is what you can call me.
I am a gentleman extraordinaire,
46
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:11,120
one of the nicest, most British
people you can possibly meet.
47
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:19,920
Even though my English it's not
that great, but I will gladly
48
00:03:19,920 --> 00:03:23,400
take any drink that you offer me
and I will gladly pay you back
49
00:03:23,640 --> 00:03:26,840
when I can because that's the
most gentleman thing to do.
50
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,320
What would you say your
profession is?
51
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:35,920
Jonesy is a gentleman.
I yes, I am a gentleman of the
52
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:40,000
great small town that I'm from.
Everyone knows my name.
53
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:45,400
I have great character,
especially among those of the
54
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,440
police, but yeah.
'Cause I'm looking at your sheet
55
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,400
and it does say hobo on here.
I'm just.
56
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:52,880
I just wanted to double check
that I.
57
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:56,160
I'm a gentleman and kind of a
scholar.
58
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:01,800
Hobo is just a trait or just a
name for someone that travels
59
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,240
around.
Exactly.
60
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:04,840
You're, you're a, you're a
travelling man.
61
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:11,040
Exactly.
It's a certain kind of scholarly
62
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,280
air, you know, a very specific
one.
63
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,680
I should note that you are not
the only hobo in the world.
64
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:23,640
The year is 1935 and we are in
in an area of England known as
65
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:28,560
the Lake District, in a small
little village called.
66
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,440
Keswick.
Yes, we're in the small little
67
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,840
village called Keswick and
you've all ended up there for
68
00:04:34,840 --> 00:04:38,480
various reasons and I think
we're going to get started.
69
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:43,640
Right now it is evening and
you're all at the inn here in
70
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,720
Keswick.
It's pretty normal evening.
71
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,760
You all have gotten done with
whatever you were doing during
72
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,600
the day and what do you think
you're doing when we're you're
73
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,600
sort of wrapping things up for
the evening.
74
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,240
I should note there is a lovely
little bar at the Hood.
75
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,960
Well, I'll head down to the bar
for a spot of Branda.
76
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,800
Yes, Brander, it's like Brandy,
but harder.
77
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,400
It's harder Brandy, yes.
So at the Blackstone where you
78
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,560
are, they do have a bar.
It's, it's a pretty nice place
79
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,240
and it's overlooking Keswick's
Market Square.
80
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:23,040
This is a small town, but it's
not a nothing town.
81
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,960
It's got like a pencil factory,
you know, very exciting stuff.
82
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,400
There is a hospital, there's a
library.
83
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,880
It's not like a little village,
but it's still not a
84
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,280
particularly exciting place.
This is, you know, no one's
85
00:05:34,280 --> 00:05:38,360
going to confuse this for
London, but there are not a ton
86
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,320
of people in the bar when you're
going down there.
87
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,080
There's like 6 or 7 people.
They're all sort of sitting at
88
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,920
tables chatting with each other.
And there is one gentleman
89
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,680
standing behind the bar at the
barkeep, and you see that it
90
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,080
looks like what he's doing is
reading a book right now.
91
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,000
Barkeep the spot of your finders
Brender.
92
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,000
He looks up from the book with
disdain in his eyes and says,
93
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,720
what Brander?
I misspoke and I'm sticking to
94
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,520
it.
Brandy, then.
95
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:13,440
Well, if that's what you've got.
OK, yes, any particular
96
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,160
whatever.
And he grabs something and
97
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,360
starts pouring it.
This place is, you'd say it's
98
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,560
very quaint.
There's a lot of decorations on
99
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,800
the wall.
There seems to be photos of
100
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,120
people from the village and
whatnot.
101
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,760
There's photos all over the
place.
102
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,440
There's a couple of like, I
don't know if you'd call the
103
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,560
artifacts or something, but
there's like old stuff on the
104
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,200
wall as well.
Like, oh look, here's like an
105
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:38,600
old farm pick or something.
It's almost like a modern day
106
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,600
Fridays, just with a bunch of
goofy stuff on the wall.
107
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,720
Does Fridays have that?
I guess that's more of an
108
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,320
Applebee's thing.
Regardless, do you?
109
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,320
There's just bunch of pictures
on the wall and.
110
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,080
And some other random stuff.
Yeah.
111
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,000
Pours your drink and offers it
to you.
112
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,560
And would you like to set up tab
or you want to pay right now?
113
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,440
I'll pay now, I don't drink that
heavily.
114
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,880
You can make the deal.
What is your credit rating?
115
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,200
Or you have a four credit
rating.
116
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,160
OK, you can afford to buy
something right now.
117
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,120
It's not going to affect your
your personal finances or
118
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,600
anything here.
OK, so you're just sort of
119
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,360
drinking at the bar.
What are you doing as you're
120
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,080
drinking?
Anything in particular?
121
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:17,800
Oh, definitely.
Looking around at the other
122
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,320
patrons, I believe I'm just sort
of visiting this place.
123
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:23,960
Yeah, you're just sort of
visiting.
124
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,240
You're on a you're on a little
vacation.
125
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,800
Yeah, so well, people watch.
Yeah, do it.
126
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,520
Some people watching.
All right, well, let's look at
127
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,400
some of the other people you
might see.
128
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:34,600
Jonesy.
What?
129
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,960
What do you think you're doing?
So Jonesy just walks into the
130
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:44,400
bar with his bowler cap, his
nice fanciest coat, and he's
131
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,760
got, you know, dress pants that
look they've seen better days,
132
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,640
but they're in good, goodish
quality.
133
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:58,080
And he walks in with a cane in
hand, twirling, and he points
134
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:02,880
towards the barkeep and he winks
and goes, ah, it's good to see
135
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,960
you again, friend.
What can you get me today?
136
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,920
I hope it's a gin and tonic.
And he puts on his biggest
137
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,360
smile.
And how are you today?
138
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,440
How's everything going?
He sort of sighs and looks up at
139
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,120
you and says are you going to be
able to pay?
140
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:29,000
You know me, I am a man of great
quality, great esteem and great
141
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,360
way of pain.
And Jonesy kind of looks around
142
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,720
and goes, ah yes, you.
And he points towards the the
143
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,400
doctor and he goes, ah, excuse
me, what is your name?
144
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,640
Doctor Michael Laws, pleasure to
meet you.
145
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,720
Laws, it is a great honor to
meet you.
146
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:49,360
My name is Tom Jones.
You may call me Jonesy.
147
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:55,040
As you can tell I am a in a
pinch but I can glad you pay you
148
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,280
back.
If you just give me a gin and
149
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,800
tonic I will gladly pay you
back.
150
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,120
Not today, but maybe tomorrow.
Well, that sounds like fantastic
151
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:05,920
deal.
Here you go.
152
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,760
You see that the barkeeper
during this conversation has
153
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,960
pulled up his book.
He's reading Murder on the
154
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,920
Orient Express and is ignoring
you guys.
155
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:18,280
That is an excellent book.
Murder on the Orient.
156
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,800
Positively good book.
As you can tell.
157
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,360
I have paid the drink.
Gin and tonic please.
158
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,320
He sighs, pours you a gin and
tonic.
159
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:30,960
He slides it across at the bar
for you.
160
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,240
What are and what are you doing
here besides drinking?
161
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:39,320
Jones, he's here, he's looking
for a little bit of trouble.
162
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,200
He's looking for trouble so he
can report it to the police
163
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:47,880
'cause he's, that is his duty as
a great and grand citizen of
164
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,320
this English country.
You're a hobo who's friends with
165
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,760
the police.
Oh yes, absolutely.
166
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,400
I talk to them all the time.
I report all the gums and goings
167
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,880
of the town and if there's any
vagrants, some people of ill
168
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,600
repute I greatly report to the
police.
169
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:11,040
Of course, of course.
And finally, Helen, I think
170
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,120
maybe you're the last one to
arrive, or maybe you've been
171
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,360
here all along.
What are you doing this evening?
172
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,200
She's she's at the bar drinking
mostly.
173
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,760
She's here because, well, since
she's so bored, you know,
174
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,160
alcohol might help.
And if a bar brawl breaks out,
175
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,080
that would really help.
Like maybe if something really
176
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,600
violent happens, she could maybe
get some artistic inspiration
177
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,360
from that.
So she's kind of just looking
178
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:40,200
around while getting a little
deep in her cups.
179
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,720
Got it.
All right.
180
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,880
Well, Helen, do you have, do you
have the photography skill?
181
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:50,880
Yes.
You do have the photography
182
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,760
skill, all right, So you're sort
of looking around as well,
183
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,080
trying to get a feel for things.
It doesn't look like any fights
184
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,920
are breaking out.
There's this very loud gentleman
185
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,680
who's just come in the bar and
is hitting up the doctor at the
186
00:11:01,680 --> 00:11:03,960
bar to get itself a drink.
But you're sort of looking
187
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,600
around, examining everything.
What catches your eye is one of
188
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,080
the photos on the wall is kind
of close to you and you look
189
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:14,960
over at it and it's weird.
At first it seems like just one
190
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:16,640
of the other photos around the
bar.
191
00:11:16,680 --> 00:11:20,920
It's a picture of what looks
like a small family.
192
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:26,360
There's a man and presumably his
wife, and you see four young
193
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,800
children with them.
And there's some names written
194
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,480
under the there.
But there's something weird as
195
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,520
you're looking at it.
There's one young girl and the
196
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,160
name Helen is written underneath
this small child.
197
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:43,560
She about she can't be more than
like 2 years old, but sort of
198
00:11:43,560 --> 00:11:48,200
looking at it a little, it kind
of looks like you.
199
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,320
The fuck kind of the Shining
bullshit.
200
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,080
It's just hanging on the wall
right there and you see the you
201
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:59,200
see written on it is Helen
wearing see other names there.
202
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,280
There's a there's a Victoria
seems to be the mother.
203
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,560
Jack seems to be the father
there.
204
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:11,640
There are a couple other names.
Michael, Thomas and Jeffrey, it
205
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,760
seems very weird to you.
There's something sort of
206
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:19,680
drawing you to this picture.
You said Michael and Thomas were
207
00:12:19,680 --> 00:12:22,000
two of the names.
Michael and Thomas, yes.
208
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:26,520
Like like the other two people
currently at the bar.
209
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,360
Yes, Weird, isn't it?
Very weird.
210
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:34,080
I'm going to go up to that
picture and take it off the
211
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,280
wall, assuming it is only hung
on the wall and not it's.
212
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:42,480
Just hung on the wall.
The bar keeper sort of looks up
213
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,280
from his book is, hey, what are
what are you doing?
214
00:12:46,680 --> 00:12:49,640
Oh, I just, I wanted to ask you
about this picture.
215
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,360
What can you tell me about this?
She says that she brings it over
216
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,120
to the bar.
I don't, I don't know.
217
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,440
There's a lot of pictures that
hang around here.
218
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,280
We just get it's decoration for
the bar.
219
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,920
I don't looks like a family.
It's supposed to be a family
220
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:06,720
that lives around here.
I don't know, it seems kind of
221
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:12,240
an old picture.
So as Jonesy sees Helen pick up
222
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,800
the picture, he stands up
immediately and twirls his
223
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,800
canes.
Madam, do you plan to pay for
224
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,960
that painting that you just
lifted off my good friends wall?
225
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,680
Did did you just call this a
painting?
226
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:33,160
Yeah, it's in a frame, correct.
Yes, but I failed to see what
227
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,720
that has to do with you know
what, I'm not getting caught in
228
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:37,880
this.
I was not planning on taking it.
229
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:41,240
So if you don't mind.
If you do take it without
230
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,960
paying, I will have to report
you to the proper authorities.
231
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,480
Doctor laws, Are you interacting
with this at all?
232
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,240
Have you looked at the picture?
I think I'm noticing there's a
233
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,880
commotion and.
Yeah.
234
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,280
That there is a woman holding a
picture.
235
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,720
Yeah.
I'm going to go over to her and
236
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,040
introduce myself.
Hello Doctor Michael Laws.
237
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:08,240
I'm married and it still counts.
Why would you never mind?
238
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:10,640
Hello.
I'm Helen.
239
00:14:10,680 --> 00:14:13,760
Helen Long.
I was just admiring this
240
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,520
photograph.
There's something strange about
241
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,880
it.
Yeah, it's quite striking.
242
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,840
Doctor Michael, as you are
looking at it, do realize that
243
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,200
your name is on here.
What the deuce?
244
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,040
As is the name of your brother
Jeffrey.
245
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:38,840
And the faces here do seem to
look like what you've seen of
246
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,160
yourselves when you were
younger.
247
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,200
You definitely Jeffrey's the
oldest of all the the children
248
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,920
in the picture and it kind of
looks like some of the pictures
249
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,440
that your parents have up around
the House of young Jeffrey.
250
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,560
Well, this is quite odd.
Are you 2 related?
251
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:58,080
Is this a family reunion?
Well, I'm sure I'd know.
252
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,760
I've never, I've never met this
man in my life.
253
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:06,080
Obviously you 2 are in the same
photograph and it looks like you
254
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,560
2 might have been planning a
meeting, have you?
255
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,960
Ah yes, more drinks around Baki,
more gin and tonic.
256
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:14,760
Well, I assume you're getting
this round.
257
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,960
I yes, absolutely.
I am a gentleman.
258
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,880
And you, Madam, what are you
drinking?
259
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:25,320
Bourbon.
A bourbon and then you and Jones
260
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,680
just kind of puts his nose to
your drink.
261
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:33,280
Doctor and ah, a brander, right?
That's it exactly.
262
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:38,360
Ah yes, Baki Brander and a
bourbon please.
263
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:44,080
And another gin and tonic.
Open up a tab under doctor laws.
264
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:50,880
We will gladly pay you back.
The barkeep size writes that
265
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,840
down, mutters like I know this
one person did it.
266
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,200
All the clues are coming
together.
267
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,320
It's got to be this one person
on the train and pours your
268
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,440
drinks and slides them over and
just says whatever, happy,
269
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,320
reunite, whatever, just put the
picture back when you're done.
270
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:10,840
Yes, perfect, drinks all around.
So let's grab a seat and I would
271
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,520
like to hear your two stories.
How did the long lost brother
272
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,760
and sister do this?
Tom, have you noticed that your
273
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:23,400
face is on this picture yet?
Oh, hold on.
274
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,080
My dear old mother lives in
Canterbury.
275
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:28,200
She's not.
What?
276
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,960
What is this?
Who got my picture?
277
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,720
Yeah, it looks like the youngest
child here.
278
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,880
Doesn't quite look like.
It's hard to tell.
279
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,560
It's kind of a, I guess saying
that it looks like you is maybe
280
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:46,280
a little much of A stretch
because it's kind of a baby, but
281
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:50,400
there's sort of like a dimple on
your chin that this child has as
282
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,520
well.
And it has the name, and it sort
283
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,880
of looks like it's a couple of
pictures that your dear old
284
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:56,280
mother had of you when you were
young.
285
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,160
I will have to call my dear old
mom.
286
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,720
Maybe she might have a photo
like this.
287
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,079
Maybe we're both.
We're all related.
288
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,040
Baki.
More drinks.
289
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,280
But no, I we should finish this
round first, don't you think?
290
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,359
We will have another drink right
after this one.
291
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:15,319
I'm up for.
Anything.
292
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,839
I will note now, now that you've
all sort of seen this, this is
293
00:17:19,839 --> 00:17:22,920
all kind of unsettling.
This is weird.
294
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:25,480
No kidding.
No kidding.
295
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,440
I need you all to make
difficulty for stability tests.
296
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,160
You have a.
This would be a loss of three.
297
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:37,080
So what that means is you have,
you have stability points that
298
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,320
represents your like sort of
general.
299
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,760
It's not quite your sanity,
although it's related, just your
300
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,560
ability to like hold it
together.
301
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,120
What I'm going to need you to do
is make a role difficulty 4.
302
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,680
If you fail this role, you will
lose 3 stability points.
303
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,360
I should note that your
stability can go all the way
304
00:17:55,360 --> 00:18:00,200
down to -11 before you are
absolutely, completely mad.
305
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,320
However, you may spend some
points before the role of your
306
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,680
stability.
So it's kind of a, a tricky
307
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,080
thing to think about.
You could spend one point of
308
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,800
stability and then you have a
higher chance of succeeding at
309
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,560
your role, but then you've used
up one of your points of
310
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,080
stability that you're trying to
hold on to.
311
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,880
And if you still fail then.
If you still fail, you'll still
312
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,600
lose the three points that
you're potentially going to lose
313
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,920
here.
And this is just a 1D6, correct?
314
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:31,640
The only dice you roll in this
game is AD 6 I guess the only
315
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,200
die you roll.
Nailed it.
316
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,040
Oh.
So you didn't spend anything,
317
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:37,880
Russell, Correct.
Yeah.
318
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,880
OK, Well, you got a six.
I'm going to spend 10.
319
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,160
Come on.
That's a three.
320
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:46,240
Sorry.
That's a failure.
321
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,360
So you're going to lose 3 points
and you also spent one.
322
00:18:49,360 --> 00:18:51,840
So that's a net loss of four
there.
323
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,840
Great start.
I'm not going to spend anything,
324
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:56,560
I'm just going to roll.
OK.
325
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,680
Oh, so that's a four.
That's just enough.
326
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,600
So the only person who lost out
was the only person who spent a
327
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,240
point?
Yeah, that's my luck.
328
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,880
That makes sense.
Certainly for an artist in
329
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,360
Lovecraft, yeah.
Yeah.
330
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:16,920
Yeah, yeah, Jonesy and Dr. Law
seem to not be too bothered by
331
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:18,160
this.
Maybe you're taking it into your
332
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,320
stride or something like that.
But Helen, all of this is kind
333
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,480
of unsettling to you.
Well, this bear is investigating
334
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,840
to the library.
Oh well, it is about 8:00 at
335
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,520
night, so the library would be
closed.
336
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,040
We can break in.
Wait, that's the brand you're
337
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,800
talking?
Is there anything you would like
338
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,280
to do to investigate this
though?
339
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,320
Could look at the photograph?
You could talk to people here.
340
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,920
Feel free to use any of your
investigative skills if you
341
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,240
think they apply.
Yeah, Earlier I asked the
342
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,040
bartender about it and he kind
of brushed me off.
343
00:19:51,360 --> 00:19:55,240
I've got assess honesty as an
interpersonal skill.
344
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,480
Does he actually not know
anything about it or is he
345
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,120
hiding something?
You could sort of tell that this
346
00:20:00,120 --> 00:20:01,440
guy's not trying to hide
anything.
347
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,280
He just doesn't, he doesn't want
to talk to you about this.
348
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,560
He barely looked at it, is the
thing.
349
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,640
He's it's not that he doesn't
know anything about it or knows
350
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,720
something about it.
It's more that he just sort of
351
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,880
looked at it and didn't really
think about it at all and just
352
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,960
said to leave him alone so he
could go back to reading his
353
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,600
Agatha Christie.
Which, I mean, fair.
354
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,400
Murder on the Orient Express is
one of the greatest murder
355
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:24,640
mysteries I've ever written.
Yeah.
356
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,840
Well, I'm something of a
photographer myself and telling
357
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:29,960
a thing or two about photos.
I'll flip it over and see if
358
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:31,200
anybody's written anything on
the back.
359
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,320
Do you have photography skill?
1.
360
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:35,200
We have one point of
photography.
361
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,840
OK, great.
You would need to take the
362
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,880
photograph out of the frame to
look at it more, but you could
363
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:45,920
easily get it out of the Nope.
OK, how do you open up the
364
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,200
frame?
Do you just sort of RIP it apart
365
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:49,080
or what are you?
What are?
366
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:49,920
You doing?
Absolutely.
367
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,520
I do not hold my liquor well.
Oh.
368
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,760
What are you doing?
The barkeeper says.
369
00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,160
Look.
At it, don't worry about it.
370
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:05,080
You you find a photographer's
mark on the back and it lists
371
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:09,120
the location manisty.
Well, this means nothing to me.
372
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,560
And the barkeeper sort of walks
up and statues the photo out of
373
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,920
your hands, or at least tries to
and says what are you doing?
374
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:16,880
You can't just take the photos
out of the frame.
375
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,920
This is not yours.
Can I reassure him?
376
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:24,160
Want to reassure him?
No, this is fine.
377
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,000
Don't worry about it.
This picture of me I should have
378
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,880
this.
I will say you can reassure him
379
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,080
to make him not immediately kick
you out.
380
00:21:32,360 --> 00:21:35,520
If you would like to spend a
point of reassurance, you could
381
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:37,760
make him like you and be willing
to give it to you.
382
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,880
I see no reason to hoard my
reassurance points.
383
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,800
OK, Yeah, this is definitely an
important to solving the mystery
384
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,520
of this photograph.
I guess holding on to it is kind
385
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,600
of important.
It's literally the only clue we
386
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,840
have.
This is true.
387
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,880
So far.
OK, so spending a point of
388
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,800
reassurance, he's like, fine,
whatever.
389
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,720
I guess it's you.
How about you just go to bed and
390
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,840
go go to Manistee tomorrow?
OK, leave me alone.
391
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,840
Wait, what's Manistee?
Aren't you from there?
392
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:13,120
Refresh my memory maybe?
Small village on the other side
393
00:22:13,120 --> 00:22:14,800
of the water.
It's to the West.
394
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,480
Yes, I remember now.
Very smooth.
395
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:23,200
He just sort of shakes his head
again and says, all right, well,
396
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:24,960
let me know when you want to
close out your tab.
397
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,600
Doctor goes back to his book.
Well, it sounds like we're off
398
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,800
to Manesty in the morning.
Are you working together now or
399
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:32,800
what?
What's going on?
400
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:34,880
Yes, we're a merry band.
I thought it was obvious.
401
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,000
When did this happen?
Just now with the the thing with
402
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,280
the photo.
Whatever.
403
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,840
So Jonesy's had his mouth a gape
the whole time because he just
404
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,520
witnessed vandalism.
And he's just like, I don't, I
405
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:53,520
don't know if I should report
this or roll with it.
406
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:58,640
So Jonesy's going to talk to
other other patrons at the bar.
407
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,280
There are other people here.
Yeah, there's some other people
408
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:02,520
here.
I will they.
409
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:06,280
Must be quite the sight.
I will just kind of talk to one
410
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:09,240
of the other patrons.
I'm going to use my streetwise
411
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,760
and just kind of, you know,
since people know my name,
412
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:16,080
everyone knows Jonesy, the
excellent extraordinaire
413
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:20,880
gentleman and just goes, excuse
me, all people from Manistee
414
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,880
this way.
I'm sorry to tell you, Jonesy,
415
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,120
People may know about you in
other parts of the country, but
416
00:23:27,120 --> 00:23:30,800
you have not really been to this
town before in Keswick.
417
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,560
You're kind of new to the area,
so they don't immediately
418
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,520
recognize you.
Everyone knows Jonesy.
419
00:23:39,120 --> 00:23:43,040
A streetwise spend will is not
really going to be helping you
420
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:44,880
here.
Streetwise is more dealing with
421
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,720
the criminal elements.
Oh my bad.
422
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,520
No, it's totally fine.
Streetwise is sort of a a broad
423
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:55,720
term for this, but streetwise is
more like being knowing about
424
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,280
crime stuff.
I guess you have that because
425
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,760
you are always reporting that
people who are.
426
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,880
Doing then I will use my
charmingly good looks and
427
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,560
flattery to talk to the.
People, yeah, one of them says
428
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,080
Manistee.
Nobody goes over there.
429
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,200
That's just a town that that's
like a nothing town on to the
430
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,040
West.
It's empty, a ghost town.
431
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:17,560
What do you mean?
Is it just?
432
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,000
Yeah, it's just a little fishing
village.
433
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,320
They got some pigs over there.
I don't know.
434
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,400
It's kind of nothing.
It's been there forever.
435
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,840
Is it the same quality of air as
old Keswick?
436
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,120
Actually, it smells kind of bad
there.
437
00:24:35,120 --> 00:24:37,880
It's near the it's on the Moors,
the swamps over there, they
438
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:41,160
don't smell so good.
If you really want to go to hop
439
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:45,280
on the ferry or I guess take the
southern Rd. over to the West.
440
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:51,080
Oh, OK, the ferry.
Jonesy hasn't been on a ship
441
00:24:51,120 --> 00:24:54,640
yet.
New adventure, What do you say?
442
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:56,840
And he just looks at the other
two.
443
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:58,360
Oh, I'm sorry, I wasn't
listening.
444
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,960
Yes, you have.
You are quite deep into your
445
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:07,880
brand and you miss Helen.
What do you say?
446
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,600
The road a fairy.
I don't see why either would be
447
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:12,880
a problem.
Let's do the fairy then,
448
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:16,320
assuming we can all afford the
fee.
449
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,480
Can you my friend?
Absolutely.
450
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:26,160
I'm a gentleman and a scholar.
I can afford many things.
451
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:30,040
Ain't that right, Doctor Laws?
Well, I don't think either of
452
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:31,800
those professions actually pays
very much.
453
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,400
You Sir, are quite the gentleman
yourself and you can afford
454
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:40,800
things as I have seen paying for
our rounds of branded gin and
455
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,640
tonic and bourbon.
Well, yes, but I'm a gentleman
456
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,840
at a doctor.
Doctor Michael Laws, married,
457
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,280
still counts.
Why do you keep saying that?
458
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,720
So everyone knows it still
counts.
459
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,640
OK.
Well, sounds like you guys have
460
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:58,520
kind of a plan.
If there's anything else you
461
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,280
want to do, you can do it this
evening.
462
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:04,320
But if you'd like, you could
retire to your rooms or I guess
463
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:10,280
outside Jonesy.
Jonesy is going to visit Miss
464
00:26:10,360 --> 00:26:13,800
Travis.
She's an exceptionally kind old
465
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,640
lady.
Yes, there is a nice lady named
466
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,720
Miss Travis who you recently met
when you came to town a couple
467
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,960
days ago.
And if she doesn't help me out,
468
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,640
I'll go visit my friend Tiny
who's at the library.
469
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:31,600
Miss Travis does has sort of
gone to bed, but you do know
470
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,640
that she has a little shed in
the back that she leaves a
471
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,120
little cot for you to sleep on.
God.
472
00:26:37,120 --> 00:26:39,600
Bless her, I'll settle up with
the barkeep.
473
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,080
Yeah.
Thank you, Doctor.
474
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:48,600
My pleasure, man.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, he says again,
475
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,480
not a very good bar.
Keep uninterested in talking to
476
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,320
you.
Just wants to read his book.
477
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,120
He's sure that it's this one guy
did it.
478
00:26:57,120 --> 00:26:59,800
He knows there's one person who
did it, and that person is the
479
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,160
one who did it.
He's got to keep reading and
480
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,520
figure it out.
I'm pretty sure the Butler did
481
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,880
it.
So you settling up your tab and
482
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:08,640
you guys could sort of retire to
your rooms.
483
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,840
Do you think you guys paid for
like the nice rooms at the hotel
484
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,320
or the kind of basic ones?
I think I'll go with basic.
485
00:27:15,120 --> 00:27:17,400
OK.
Yeah, I've.
486
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:21,800
Basic, totally fine.
You guys go to sleep and getting
487
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,040
ready for an interesting day
tomorrow.
488
00:27:24,120 --> 00:27:26,720
None of you guys have anything.
You don't have any particular
489
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:28,600
reason to be here, but now you
do.
490
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,200
You're sort of on vacation or
painting or just wandering
491
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,000
around.
But now you've got a little bit
492
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,680
of a thing, like try to figure
out what's going on with this
493
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,440
painting.
Oh, now I'm calling it a
494
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:39,000
painting.
Jonesy Jonesy got me going on
495
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:42,840
with this photograph.
Well, it's rotoscope, so it's
496
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:49,360
actually kind of both.
Is some really advanced shit for
497
00:27:49,360 --> 00:27:51,360
the 30s?
Yeah, exactly.
498
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:57,880
You do, however, have some
unsettling dreams, Doctor Laws.
499
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,120
That's my name.
You find yourself standing
500
00:28:02,120 --> 00:28:05,080
inside a circle of standing
stones.
501
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:11,000
There are others around you,
dancing with bizarre ritualistic
502
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:15,000
movements, whirling as they hold
their arms horizontally.
503
00:28:16,360 --> 00:28:19,800
You look down and you see your
brother Jeffrey.
504
00:28:20,360 --> 00:28:24,080
You see your brother Jeffrey
lying beside an open grave.
505
00:28:25,360 --> 00:28:30,600
In your hand is a curved,
ancient knife of strange metal.
506
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:36,480
You know what you must do.
You must slice his throat,
507
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:41,240
shoulders and calves.
What do you do?
508
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,160
Well, exactly that, it's what I
must do.
509
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:48,240
OK.
You just fucking went for it.
510
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:52,600
And then you wake up.
Wow, what an unsettling dream.
511
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:54,920
Helen.
That's me.
512
00:28:55,200 --> 00:29:00,920
You are walking across a Ridge
in the hills with a shovel in
513
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,240
your hands.
In the distance is a lake
514
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,840
glittering in the dark night.
You're tired.
515
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:12,480
You've walked for a long way,
but there are duties you must
516
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,280
perform.
You know you must continue.
517
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,640
Ahead of you is a stone circle.
What do you do?
518
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:25,240
I suppose I keep walking.
As you get closer, you start to
519
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:30,000
hear strange sounds, almost like
whispers.
520
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,520
And then you wake up and
finally, Jonesy, you're dancing.
521
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,800
It's a dream where you're
dancing, dancing around like
522
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:42,200
crazy, and you're in a stone
circle.
523
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:49,480
You hold your arms to the side,
leaping and whirling, but you're
524
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,680
executing complicated steps and
you know them.
525
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,280
You don't even need to think
about them.
526
00:29:54,640 --> 00:30:00,680
And in the middle of the circle
you see a man holding a curved
527
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:06,240
blade of metal that looks
strange with a knife, ready to
528
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,920
perform a human sacrifice.
What do you do?
529
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:14,160
Can I use sense trouble?
Buddy, there's trouble.
530
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,240
All right.
I look around for the nearest
531
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:24,920
police officer.
I admire your consistency.
532
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:32,120
There's no one here except those
dancing and the one with the
533
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:36,280
knife.
No one is coming to help, but
534
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:40,280
you don't need any help.
Everything's going to be OK,
535
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:45,160
everything is just as it should
be, and then you wake up.
536
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,880
No police.
I guess maybe that everything
537
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:52,560
isn't as it should be.
That's terrifying to you.
538
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,560
Where are the police?
Everybody?
539
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,000
Difficulty 4, loss of three
stability.
540
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:02,080
Except for you, Doctor Laws
would be a loss of four
541
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:03,880
stability because it was your
brother.
542
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:08,160
So she goes.
OK, it looks like Russell.
543
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,560
Excuse me, Doctor Laws lost
something.
544
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,880
Jonesy is good, and Helen lost
it.
545
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,960
Oh, actually, Helen, it's only
two for you 'cause all you did
546
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,400
was you were walking with a
shovel.
547
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,840
It was still a weird dream, but
it wasn't as there was no human
548
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,480
sacrifice in it.
It's good 'cause I am the one
549
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,560
who has so far suffered the
most.
550
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,360
Yeah.
Direct hits to the sanity, yeah.
551
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,960
Sanity is actually a whole other
thing that will start going
552
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,200
ticking down once you get into
the negatives of your stability,
553
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:38,440
right.
Yeah.
554
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:43,240
So by the way, the whole point
of this sort of game is you're
555
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,000
going to be driven mad.
You know this.
556
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,160
We know all why we're here.
So if you ever feel like there
557
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,160
would be something crazy that
happened or something spooky
558
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,320
that would mess with their
stability, you could just say
559
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,920
like, hey, would would that hurt
my stability?
560
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:57,240
And I'll and I'll probably say
yes.
561
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,960
So if I don't call it out, you
could call it out.
562
00:31:59,960 --> 00:32:01,040
Go for it.
It's fun.
563
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:02,520
Lovely.
That's the whole point of this,
564
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,920
all right?
And you wake up.
565
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,640
What do you do?
Well, I'll wake the sweat for my
566
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,680
brow.
That was quite an intense dream
567
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,560
and there was a lot of sawing at
the end.
568
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,360
A lot of sawing, I guess the the
cutting, yeah.
569
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,880
Jeffrey's flesh was very tough,
knife was dull.
570
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:29,640
Actually his flesh came off very
easily, it was almost loose.
571
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:36,000
Oh, that's a relief.
That's worse, yeah.
572
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,400
Would you like to do anything
before you guys head out in the
573
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,280
morning?
I suppose you had some ominous
574
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:44,640
dreams that you could maybe look
at stuff about or chat with each
575
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,040
other about.
Or you just go hop on the ferry
576
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:51,120
and go check out Manistee.
Jonesy Jonesy, you were in my
577
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:54,200
dream last night.
Before Jonesy leaves the cot, he
578
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:58,200
looks around.
Misses Travis's garden for
579
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,880
flowers.
He picks the flowers and then
580
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:04,520
puts the flowers on her back
doorstep as kind of like a gift.
581
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:06,440
Kind of.
Like, yeah.
582
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:13,640
He's a gentleman, so and then he
heads to the to the bar, but
583
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:15,680
he's got to go on patrol.
So he's just kind of looking
584
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,520
around suspiciously because that
was a rough dream for him.
585
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,280
No police, no, no authorities.
Aw, man, jeez.
586
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,760
So he's kind of looking around a
little suspiciously.
587
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:30,080
OK, and what about you, Helen?
What are you doing this morning?
588
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:34,640
Well step one, grab my fucking
supplies and sketch the shit I
589
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,240
saw.
Oh, OK.
590
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:38,520
Yeah.
That's free real estate.
591
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:44,080
You actually, as you start
sketching it and thinking about
592
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,720
it, your art knowledge means
you're actually kind of
593
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:48,440
knowledgeable about dance as
well.
594
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,360
I don't know, maybe you're
friends with a dancer or maybe
595
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,560
you're a dancer.
I, I, I don't know, I don't
596
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,960
think you're a dancer, but you
tell me about Helen.
597
00:33:56,280 --> 00:34:01,120
Was there dance in my dream?
Shoot, you didn't see the dance.
598
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,200
You were the shovel person.
Back it up, the shovel lady.
599
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:09,080
Back it up.
I hope we don't cut a lot of
600
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:13,320
this because it's really funny.
Well, we'll, we'll figure it
601
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:17,280
out.
OK, so you're sketching the the
602
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,280
stone circle that you see in the
distance?
603
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,199
Mostly, yeah.
Do you think there's anything,
604
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,040
any skills that you have that
might help you know what a stone
605
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,480
circle is from?
Well, I have architecture and
606
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,480
art history, so.
Looking at the stones, you could
607
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:37,440
tell like they look like they
were, you know, one of the many
608
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,880
stone circles around England.
But besides that, you don't
609
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:42,360
really know too much more about
it.
610
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,719
Other than that I'm not sure
what I would use so.
611
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,360
Yeah, no, that's fine.
I I'm not trying to trick you.
612
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,159
I don't actually think you have
the skills for it.
613
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,920
How much time do you spend like
sort of drawing this or painting
614
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,719
this?
I mean, I know I've got shit to
615
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:58,480
do today, so I basically just
get the rough sketch down so
616
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:02,080
that way I it's like stuck in my
head and I can paint it later.
617
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:04,080
Oh, it's going to be stuck in
your head.
618
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:06,160
And how about you, Doctor Laws?
What?
619
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,720
What do you do when you wake up?
What's your morning ritual like?
620
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,280
Oh, have breakfast.
There's a different person at
621
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,560
the bar now who seems a little
bit more friendly.
622
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:15,480
Oh thank God.
But the bar also has a little
623
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,680
restaurant there as well.
They're serving some eggs and
624
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:19,840
stuff like that and you could
get a nice little English
625
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:21,640
breakfast.
Those are continental.
626
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,240
Beans.
There is not a continental
627
00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:26,840
breakfast, no.
I don't know if they had those
628
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,560
in the the 40s, thirties, 30s.
I also don't think they had
629
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,040
those in the 40s, but it's the
30s right now.
630
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,080
I know at my earliest
convenience I'm going to be
631
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,160
discussing my dreams with my new
compatriots.
632
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:41,320
OK, Jonesy sort of is on patrol
looking around and eventually I
633
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:42,840
think we'll make it to the
restaurant.
634
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,320
Oh yeah, yeah, he definitely
makes us to the restaurant.
635
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,000
He almost like comically, kind
of floats through the air
636
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,720
because he's smelling breakfast.
Oh yeah, there's a pie on the
637
00:35:50,720 --> 00:35:54,120
windowsill.
Actually, and he kind of hopes
638
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:59,240
that his brand new best friend,
Doctor Laws, still married,
639
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:04,400
still counts, is downstairs.
And he kind of almost instantly
640
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:08,160
twirls his cane, points to
Doctor and goes, ah, my good
641
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,360
friend, what a interesting
night.
642
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,320
You going to finish that
breakfast?
643
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,520
Good question.
Now that I think about it, I
644
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,040
think I may have taken too much
my friend.
645
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,840
Perfect, I will gladly finish
that.
646
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:21,840
It's the most genuinely thing to
do.
647
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:22,960
Oh.
That's very nice of you.
648
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:25,320
Is this you being nice Doctor
Laws?
649
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,000
Certainly.
Yeah, okay.
650
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,240
And then Jonesy just scarves it
all down like.
651
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:33,400
Fast Jonesy Jonesy, we do have
silverware here.
652
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,480
Yes, perfect.
Let me wash my hands and reuse
653
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,600
the silverware.
And Helen can descend at any
654
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,440
point while you guys are sitting
there.
655
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,360
Have a conversation if you would
like.
656
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,040
Let me know when you want to
head out or if you want to do
657
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,200
anything else.
So as he's cutting the toast and
658
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,640
eggs and goes.
I had such a strange dream
659
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,680
yesterday.
Oh, myself as well.
660
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:58,440
I was dancing.
I haven't danced in a long, long
661
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:02,600
time.
Something, something stone
662
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:04,160
circles.
Yeah.
663
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,680
But I can tell you the scariest
thing about it.
664
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,560
There were no figures of a
thought.
665
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,720
My dream included a circle of
standing stones and dancing as
666
00:37:12,720 --> 00:37:17,400
well.
There I was, also dancing.
667
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:20,200
I do want to mention Doctor
Laws.
668
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:21,640
Sorry, I don't mean to
interrupt.
669
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:23,680
You were not dancing, Doctor
Laws.
670
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,200
You were standing at the circle,
not dancing, with a knife in
671
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,880
your hands.
Yes, dancing away the night.
672
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:33,600
I did also as Jones.
He's kind of cutting a little
673
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,160
slower now that the memory's
still a little, still a little
674
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,040
fresh.
There was someone in the middle
675
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:41,080
with the knife.
Was there?
676
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,960
Were there also someone in the
dream with a knife in the middle
677
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,120
of the circle?
Yes, I recall seeing that as
678
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:48,560
well.
How strange that we've had the
679
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:50,800
same dream.
Clearly, our shared experience
680
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,480
last night has done something to
our brains.
681
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,440
And it's at this point that
Helen comes down from her room,
682
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,480
and she's like, yes, I overheard
a bit of this.
683
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:01,400
Did the stone circle look like
this?
684
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,680
And she pulls out the sketch
that she made of it.
685
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:10,960
Yes.
I had a dream last night where I
686
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,720
was walking to this place
carrying a shovel.
687
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:15,200
Yes, probably to bury my
brother.
688
00:38:15,240 --> 00:38:16,240
I mean nothing.
What?
689
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,920
What?
Dancing the night.
690
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:25,280
Away.
Yes, You have a brother.
691
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,760
Best Jeffrey, one of my finest
friends.
692
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,000
How old is he?
He's a couple years older than
693
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,560
me.
Oh, is he a good man?
694
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,880
Is he a gentleman and esteemed
as you?
695
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:36,240
Yes.
All right.
696
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,640
Why did we need to bury him in
the dream?
697
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,800
Well, you don't walk away from
that much blood loss, let me
698
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,240
tell you that.
Jones is just kind of eyes, both
699
00:38:43,240 --> 00:38:47,720
of you suspiciously.
And yes, how about we just leave
700
00:38:47,720 --> 00:38:50,560
for this fairy before this
conversation requires me to go
701
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,960
talk to someone, Yes.
Sounds good to me.
702
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,920
Helen rolls up the drawing.
The second location.
703
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,080
Wonderful.
As you're getting to go, you
704
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,440
hear a ton of static coming from
around you.
705
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,600
You're not quite sure where it's
coming from, just this really
706
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:08,240
loud, staticky sound.
Sounds like someone's radio is
707
00:39:08,240 --> 00:39:11,240
on the Fritz.
Shall we quickly take a look?
708
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,960
I would like to see a radio.
Yeah, there's a radio on the bar
709
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,600
and you notice that somebody
must have brought it out to set
710
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,000
up some music, but you're just
hearing all this, this wild
711
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,280
static coming out of it.
Can I use a mechanical repair?
712
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,640
Just ask the bar key.
Do you hear that seg?
713
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:29,360
May I take a quick look and see
if I can fix that?
714
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,120
He looks at you and sort of
turns his head to the side, says
715
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:34,640
no, no, the radio works just
fine.
716
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:36,920
OK, I got no money for you.
I'm sorry.
717
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,520
Oh no, I won't do it.
I won't do it for money.
718
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:41,520
I won't do that.
The kindness of my heart, it's
719
00:39:41,720 --> 00:39:44,720
gentlemanly thing to do.
No, you don't need the music.
720
00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:45,640
Sounds just fine.
OK.
721
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:46,880
Don't.
Don't mess with the radio.
722
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:50,400
But it sounds like static.
No, it sounds like Cole Porter.
723
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,160
What are you talking about?
Oh.
724
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,160
You know, and then Jonesy just
kind of picks his ear and pulls
725
00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:57,440
out a big old thing, that ear
wax.
726
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:01,840
Yes, my word, yes.
It's just, it's just my ears.
727
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,280
And kind of like sheepishly
walks out.
728
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:05,800
Oh no.
Hell and stability.
729
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,320
Yeah, 2 point stability loss
difficulty 4.
730
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,920
I swear there's other mechanics
in this game besides losing
731
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,040
stability.
Oh God, that's a one.
732
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,120
OK.
So you want to down to two
733
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:19,360
stability?
Jonesy loses 2.
734
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:20,880
I'll think nothing of it, my
friends.
735
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:22,480
I don't really understand music
either.
736
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:26,040
Can't believe it.
You're just.
737
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,400
Nothing is bothering you, Doctor
lost.
738
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:32,760
You're just completely fine.
I lost some from the dream.
739
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:34,480
You lost some from the dream,
you did lose some from the
740
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,960
dream.
So plan is go to the ferry
741
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,760
leaving Keswick, get ahead on
the ferry over to Manistee.
742
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,320
Before we leave, hold on what?
What time does the ferry leave?
743
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:45,040
Leaves at 10.
OK, what?
744
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:47,880
What time is it I?
Don't know, it's like 9 or so,
745
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,160
maybe 8:30.
OK, we have an hour real quick.
746
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:55,120
So knowing certain things of the
streets, Jonesy is going to go
747
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:58,960
talk to his dear friend Tiny,
who sleeps at the library.
748
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,840
He kind of wants to get some
information about manasy.
749
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:06,920
Maybe Tiny might know something?
And adjacent to that, I'd like
750
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,920
to use my library use skill to
see if Helen can find anything
751
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,400
out about the circle that she
saw.
752
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:14,560
OK, got it.
If there's any record of
753
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,080
something like that in the area
or?
754
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:20,320
Yeah, of course, Of course.
OK, heading over to the library.
755
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:22,960
How about you, Doctor?
I will wait patiently at the
756
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,520
fairy landing.
Just sort of wait at the fairy
757
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:27,120
landing.
OK, sure.
758
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,920
I don't see how medical records
or hospital wards would help me
759
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,080
right now.
OK, Helen, you sort of go
760
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,400
through the books.
You you have a library skill.
761
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:40,840
As you're looking through the
books, you do find that this
762
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:44,360
seems to be Castle Rig Circle.
The description of it looks
763
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:48,040
about right, and it's relatively
nearby, a little bit north of
764
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:50,240
the water.
I see.
765
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:55,400
I keep saying the water that is
a lake that is between here and
766
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,320
Manistee.
It's called the water.
767
00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:01,440
But yes there is a old stone
circle called Castle Rig.
768
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:06,440
Reading about it, there's not
much to it, just that it's not
769
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:11,000
of modern craftsmanship
obviously, but also it doesn't
770
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:17,680
really match quite up with any
of the other stone circles built
771
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:19,400
by druids and stuff around this
time.
772
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:23,080
It seems to be unique.
In fact it seems to be better
773
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,960
constructed than any of the
other ones that are around.
774
00:42:26,240 --> 00:42:29,240
But besides that, nothing,
nothing more to it.
775
00:42:29,240 --> 00:42:32,400
It's just sort of an odd
archaeological footnote, as it
776
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,280
were.
And Jonesy, you're, you're able
777
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:38,200
to talk to Tiny He, he's happy
to see you in the morning.
778
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:43,440
Jonesy, my man, come, come.
He gives you a big old hug.
779
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:49,240
My dude, how are you doing?
Getting by, getting by, You know
780
00:42:49,240 --> 00:42:51,600
how it is.
Yeah, you know how it is.
781
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:54,480
And you know, one of the things
that everyone keeps falling
782
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:57,920
about is this this act anyways,
you know anything about
783
00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,160
Manistee?
Manistee.
784
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,840
Yeah.
Yeah, no, that's, that's that
785
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:04,200
little village over there,
right?
786
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:06,920
Yeah, yeah.
That's what I hear.
787
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:09,680
Any anything to look for?
Do we got any signs over there?
788
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:14,280
No, it's kind of a small town.
I've been over there once
789
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:15,880
before.
Not much to it.
790
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:19,240
It's like a little inn over
there and just some houses and
791
00:43:19,240 --> 00:43:21,680
some some fishermen and a couple
of farmers.
792
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:23,960
Really nothing.
Nothing that exciting over
793
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,920
there.
Do you know if we have any
794
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:32,720
interesting stone circles there?
I don't know any stone circles.
795
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:34,520
I think.
I think a little bit to the
796
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:37,680
South there was like a couple of
broken down buildings, but I
797
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:39,400
wouldn't call those stone
circles.
798
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:41,520
Well, what type of the buildings
were they used?
799
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:44,560
I don't know, I was just looking
for a place to stay.
800
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:49,000
I found a couple of like torn
down buildings like ruins but
801
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,480
like I don't know it there
wasn't enough cover from the
802
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,080
wind.
They're not.
803
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:58,280
They're not safe.
No, it's, it's better just stay
804
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,640
over here.
Warmer, more friendly people.
805
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:04,360
People over there, not too
friendly, not unfriendly, but I
806
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,800
don't think they get too many
visitors is the thing, you know?
807
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,360
And if I, you know, twirl the
cane, tip the hat, people,
808
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,320
people kind of fall for that
kind of thing.
809
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,200
I am a gentleman after all.
You can give it a shot.
810
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:20,400
They always love you, Jonesy.
Everyone loves old Jonesy, so
811
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,880
all right, cool.
Why you ask about Mantasy?
812
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:26,840
You going over there?
Yeah, a person that's a doctor
813
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:30,600
that I'm kind of schmoozing, he
might be able to pay for a few
814
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:34,360
things and might be able to look
after me, maybe if we head back
815
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,600
to London.
Yeah, he's paying.
816
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:41,040
He's paying for everything.
This guy's a sucker, so.
817
00:44:43,240 --> 00:44:45,400
Yeah, and he's and he's going to
Manistee.
818
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:49,200
Yeah, he's going to Manistee.
The hospitals in Keswick?
819
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,760
Why is he going to Manistee?
Maybe he has someone he has to
820
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,760
look after, something about a
brother or I don't know.
821
00:44:56,720 --> 00:45:00,280
Oh, OK, You stay safe, Jonesy.
Yeah, take it easy, Tiny.
822
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:02,120
You know what?
Yeah, yeah, take it easy.
823
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:06,720
And Jonesy pulls out a shilling
and flicks it towards Tiny and
824
00:45:06,720 --> 00:45:08,880
goes live large.
You got it.
825
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,920
I should note that Tiny is of
course, a huge man.
826
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:16,520
That's why he said live large.
Yeah, Anything else you want to
827
00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:18,280
squeeze in before the ferry
arrived?
828
00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:20,480
I could inquire after the health
of my brother.
829
00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:25,240
OK, just give him a call.
Yeah, You call his house in
830
00:45:25,240 --> 00:45:29,040
London, he does not pick up.
Well, I'm sure he's fine.
831
00:45:29,240 --> 00:45:31,360
I'll write him a letter.
You'll write him a letter.
832
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:33,280
OK, What are you going to write
him in the letter?
833
00:45:33,720 --> 00:45:35,920
Dear Jeffrey, how are you?
I am fine.
834
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,560
Keswick is OK.
I'm going to go explore
835
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:39,800
Manassee.
That's it.
836
00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,800
Yeah.
No, like I think we're adopted
837
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,880
or anything like that.
It's a very strange picture the
838
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:47,760
other day.
That's why I'm going to explore
839
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:48,880
Manassee.
Goodbye.
840
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:50,280
Got it.
Love it.
841
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,520
The boat arrives, you hop on the
ferry.
842
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:56,680
It's uneventful, honestly.
The fact that it stops at
843
00:45:56,680 --> 00:46:01,040
Manistee is kind of a side note.
It's got a couple of stops and
844
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:04,840
it swings by Manistee on the
way, but you are able to take
845
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:08,360
the ferry there and you arrive
in the small town of Manistee.
846
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,680
It's on the other side of the
Derwent Water.
847
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:17,000
And as you cross this beautiful,
dark and glittering lake, you
848
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:22,400
see the village, which is
constructed of mostly local Gray
849
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:25,480
slate stone.
It's pretty grim and foreboding.
850
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:31,040
They're blocky stone buildings
and there's just sort of nothing
851
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:34,160
really too much to it, but it's
small little village.
852
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:40,000
My word, it stinks here.
The barkeep was not lying.
853
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,040
Wow.
Well.
854
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:46,360
Yes, I guess the best thing to
do, my friends, is why don't we
855
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:50,080
go introduce ourselves to the
closest bar, Hmm.
856
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,880
Gin and tonics.
I don't see any trouble going
857
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:54,720
on.
Maybe I'd go on one of my
858
00:46:54,720 --> 00:46:56,440
patrols.
Helen, would you like to come
859
00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:59,480
with me on one of my famous
patrols?
860
00:47:01,240 --> 00:47:04,600
No.
Oh, what?
861
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:09,880
What about if it's?
You might get inspirational art
862
00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:13,000
inspiration.
Shit.
863
00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:16,960
All right.
Ah, perfect.
864
00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:20,080
You never go on patrol by
yourself if you're in an unknown
865
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,080
place.
And you, doctor, would you like
866
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:25,600
to go on patrol?
Nah, I think I'll go wander off
867
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:30,160
alone for a while.
OK, well, be careful.
868
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:34,680
Seems like a bad idea.
As you all are wandering around
869
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:38,960
the town, one pair and one solo,
there are people that are sort
870
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:40,600
of going about their daily
lives.
871
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,640
People going down to fish, some
people that are working,
872
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:45,720
building some stuff.
There's a Cooper, you know,
873
00:47:45,720 --> 00:47:47,880
making a barrel.
You hear the sound of a couple
874
00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:51,320
of pigs near the edge of town.
People are giving you like sort
875
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:55,120
of odd looks, but nobody's sort
of walking up and talking to you
876
00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:56,920
necessarily as you're looking
around.
877
00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:00,800
Near the center of town, one of
the only sort of public places
878
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:05,280
is a little building that has a
sign outside that says the
879
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,640
Leeward Inn.
Besides that, there's just
880
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:11,240
mostly a bunch of houses.
I don't know I without knowing a
881
00:48:11,240 --> 00:48:14,160
particular house to look for, I
don't know what you could do.
882
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:16,440
So the doctor will meet back up
with these guys.
883
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:20,040
Wow, this place sucks.
Quite.
884
00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:22,280
Yeah, I thought Keswick was a
dumb does.
885
00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:24,760
Anyone feel like we maybe made a
mistake and we should go back?
886
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:28,000
Nonsense, nonsense.
We gotta give every town a
887
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:31,160
chance.
Why don't we go into the inn and
888
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:35,440
then we can introduce ourselves
to at least some of the locals.
889
00:48:35,720 --> 00:48:41,040
If need be, I can go in first,
tip the hat, twirl the cane and
890
00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:44,040
put on my charm.
You do still have that
891
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:46,360
photograph.
I suppose I should mention as
892
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,840
you're looking at the photograph
a little bit more, you know,
893
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:52,520
after you stole it from the bar,
I mean, took it with permission
894
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,240
from the bar.
The picture does appear to be in
895
00:48:55,240 --> 00:48:57,080
front of one of these Gray
houses.
896
00:48:57,320 --> 00:48:59,960
Unfortunately, they're all kind
of Gray stone houses, so that
897
00:48:59,960 --> 00:49:01,800
doesn't really narrow it down
too much.
898
00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:04,840
We could ask the innkeeper about
the picture.
899
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:07,880
Sure.
Brilliant idea, Helen, Brilliant
900
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:08,960
idea.
All right.
901
00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:13,840
Well, as you head into the inn,
it's cold and dark and there's
902
00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:17,880
kind of nobody in here.
No one's really drinking at
903
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:19,520
noon.
Amateurs.
904
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:24,080
You actually do see there's a
couple of people sitting at one
905
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,080
table and then one lone figure
sitting at another table.
906
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,560
But there's a woman behind the
bar who sort of looks out at you
907
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:33,520
and says, more visitors to town.
Well, is there some sort of
908
00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:36,560
convention?
There's a convention in town.
909
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:40,040
What type of convention?
I do love people.
910
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:43,400
I am Tom Jones.
You can call me Jonesy.
911
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:48,920
And these are my compatriots.
Miss Helen an artist and we have
912
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,200
a doctor.
Is anyone sick in town?
913
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:56,800
She's just sort of looking at
you with narrowed eyes and both
914
00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:59,760
narrowed eyes of suspicion but
also confusion.
915
00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:04,800
You're kind of a lot for her.
Just a big ol smile on Jonesy's
916
00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:07,760
face.
Yeah, she says.
917
00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:11,320
No, there isn't a convention.
Maybe you could tell me.
918
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:13,360
We already had another visitor
come by yesterday.
919
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:18,280
I don't know who you guys are.
Are you you with the bank?
920
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:19,680
Are you trying to buy up the
land?
921
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:20,640
What?
What's going on?
922
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:22,680
Why is it cheap?
I don't.
923
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,760
I don't really know anything
about that really.
924
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,800
Sorry about my friend here and
Helen kind of a little bit
925
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:33,360
pushes him to side.
Oh my pardons.
926
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:37,840
I suppose I'll start with some
good old fashioned reassurance.
927
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:39,720
OK?
Terribly sorry if we gave off
928
00:50:39,720 --> 00:50:42,560
the wrong first impression.
He's eccentric.
929
00:50:42,720 --> 00:50:47,200
He certainly is.
But we're here in town on a
930
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:49,240
voyage of self discovery, we'll
call it.
931
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:53,000
She rolls her eyes.
Yeah, I know.
932
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:57,040
I get that all the time.
But but we do mean no harm, You
933
00:50:57,040 --> 00:51:00,760
said another someone else from
out of town came in recently.
934
00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:03,960
Did they give you a name or
anything like that?
935
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:07,000
I don't know.
We got a got a room last night.
936
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:10,320
He stayed up there, Jeff or
something like that.
937
00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:12,600
No, Jeffrey, it's my brother.
What?
938
00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:15,400
What?
I second that.
939
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:17,600
What?
Oh, it makes sense.
940
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:19,720
He was in the picture, so he's
come to investigate too.
941
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:23,760
How would he know?
How would he know what's in this
942
00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:26,240
picture if we have this picture
right here?
943
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:29,760
Well, maybe he's got a copy.
What picture?
944
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,440
What are you talking about?
This one right here.
945
00:51:32,720 --> 00:51:34,240
I got it from a bar across the
water.
946
00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:37,560
OK.
Look, it's me and Jonesy and
947
00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:41,880
Helen.
Oh, so you're you're from around
948
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:42,920
here?
I don't really.
949
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:48,640
Wait, are you Jack's old son?
Sure, why not?
950
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,880
Could you tell us a bit more?
Like I said, it's a journey of
951
00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:54,120
self discovery so we don't know
ourselves.
952
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:57,080
No, I, I I recognize this
picture.
953
00:51:57,080 --> 00:52:01,400
This is if these are you that
then you must be Jack and
954
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:03,800
Victoria's kids.
Rest their soul.
955
00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:06,880
Oh, wow.
Why are you coming back after
956
00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:11,000
all this time?
Well, hold on, hold on.
957
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:15,760
Maybe they're related.
No, that is a child.
958
00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:18,360
That is a baby that is not old.
Jonesy.
959
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:24,880
My mother, Misses Jones, God
bless her, is a seamstress in
960
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,800
Canterbury.
I'm along with them 'cause these
961
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,680
are my dear friends that I've
met in Keswick.
962
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:34,520
They must be mistaken.
Well, Jonesy, I'm something of a
963
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:40,000
doctor that most adults at one
point in their life are babies.
964
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:42,760
But don't all babies look the
same?
965
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:45,200
Well, yes, most people do when
it comes right down to it.
966
00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:50,600
Yeah, see, we're not related.
My dear old mom's in Canterbury.
967
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:52,240
God bless her.
I should call her on the phone.
968
00:52:52,240 --> 00:52:55,880
She has a new phone.
We, we have a phone here if you
969
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:57,840
want to call, I guess whatever.
Absolutely.
970
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:00,600
I will call my mother and we'll
have the discussion.
971
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:06,440
I'm from England, I am English.
God bless you.
972
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:08,440
I would also.
Like to call my mother about
973
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:11,800
this.
And where might Jeffrey be my
974
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:14,320
brother?
I sure.
975
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:16,800
I guess if he's your brother,
there's, there's a room in the
976
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:19,160
back where he's staying.
I, I don't think he's left it.
977
00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:22,160
He's been in there.
He seemed kind of worried.
978
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:24,760
I, I don't know, but whatever
you have the phone's over there.
979
00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:28,640
Feel free to make a call.
Are you buying anything?
980
00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,080
Oh, bourbon for me.
OK.
981
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:37,000
Gin and tonic on her tab please.
Well, I'll go fetch Jeffrey and
982
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:39,480
we'll all have a drink together.
Perfect.
983
00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,440
All right, who?
Which one do you think's is
984
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:46,960
gonna make the phone call first?
I will gladly let the fine lady
985
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:49,800
call first.
Helen appreciates it.
986
00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:55,040
She knocks down her drink and
dials up her mom and Chelsea.
987
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:59,240
Hello.
Hello, mother.
988
00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:04,040
It's it's Helen.
Oh, Helen, dear.
989
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:07,760
How are you doing?
How's the art coming along?
990
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,760
You always were so talented.
It's been so long since I've
991
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:15,520
heard from you, darling.
Yeah, Terribly sorry about that.
992
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:20,400
I Yeah, I was in Keswick.
Oh, that's out in the Lake
993
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:21,600
District, right?
Yeah.
994
00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:24,320
What are you doing out there?
I was.
995
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:28,320
Looking for artistic
inspiration, a friend pointed me
996
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:31,040
in this direction.
Well, a client and admirer.
997
00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:33,760
Oh, you always have so many
admirers.
998
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:41,360
Yes, right now I'm in Manistee,
the town across the lake.
999
00:54:41,880 --> 00:54:44,040
I'm sorry, what?
Mother, is there something you'd
1000
00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:46,160
like to tell me?
About.
1001
00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,800
About.
Manistee, yes.
1002
00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:54,080
Helen, I There's no easy way to
say this.
1003
00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:58,040
I Well, when you were young, you
were, you were too young to tell
1004
00:54:58,040 --> 00:54:59,320
about this.
We didn't know when.
1005
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:02,000
And another time passed and we
don't.
1006
00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:06,480
Your father and I didn't.
Mother, am I adopted?
1007
00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:12,000
Yes, yes, there was a woman,
your birth mother, a woman named
1008
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:17,240
Victoria, had put you and some
of her other children up for for
1009
00:55:17,240 --> 00:55:20,600
adoption.
And your father and I, we, we'd
1010
00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:25,440
never been able to conceive.
So we took you into our family.
1011
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:30,120
And, and I know, I'm sorry I
never told you, but you should
1012
00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:32,800
know that we will always be your
family.
1013
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,880
I think of you as my daughter,
100%.
1014
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:40,360
I, I, I You may not have come
from me, but you are my flesh
1015
00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:42,880
and blood spiritually if not.
It's all right.
1016
00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:46,040
You are my mother.
You could tell that she's baby
1017
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:49,320
getting ready to cry she's feels
so guilty about this.
1018
00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:53,760
And I promise you, no matter
what may come to pass, you will
1019
00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:55,960
always be my mother.
Well, thank you darling.
1020
00:55:56,240 --> 00:56:01,560
I How did you figure this out?
It's a long story, OK?
1021
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:03,720
I'll tell you all about it when
I come home.
1022
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,480
If I come home.
Darling, don't speak like that.
1023
00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:11,120
For some reason, the world feels
rather crazy right now.
1024
00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,080
I'll call you back if I get the
chance.
1025
00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:15,000
I love you.
Bye.
1026
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:16,120
I.
Love you too, darling.
1027
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:19,840
Helen hangs up.
Are you all right, Miss Ellen?
1028
00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:23,240
That was a sobering
conversation.
1029
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:26,960
Sobering indeed.
I need another bourbon.
1030
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:32,160
One point loss test.
It's not too much because you
1031
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:34,880
kind of were already starting to
put these clues together in your
1032
00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:37,560
head.
Well, I passed this time.
1033
00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:40,200
OK, first check, I've actually
passed.
1034
00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:46,400
So Jonesy hasn't called his dear
old mum in a very long time.
1035
00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:51,880
So he kind of fiddles around in
front of the phone.
1036
00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:55,640
Just, I don't know, She's she's
getting there in age.
1037
00:56:55,640 --> 00:57:02,360
I don't want to bother her.
All right, I'll call her.
1038
00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:06,120
So yeah, that's his dear old
mom.
1039
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:10,800
Hello, Mom.
Thomas, Is that you, Thomas?
1040
00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:14,840
Yes, ma'am, it is your baby boy
Thomas.
1041
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:19,120
I have finally called you.
Oh, Thomas, it's so good to hear
1042
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:20,280
from you.
We don't hear from you.
1043
00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:22,560
It's so long.
I know that you had gone into
1044
00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:26,440
the city to look for work and
And how how are you, my boy?
1045
00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:30,640
Oh, it's been so.
Long, Your clothes are still the
1046
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:33,600
best pair of clothes you've ever
made.
1047
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:38,680
My dear old mom.
The coach, fantastic in great
1048
00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:42,400
condition.
The cap, the bowler hat, still
1049
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:45,080
in mint condition.
Mom, these are the best things
1050
00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:48,720
I'm telling you.
You need to sell your clothes to
1051
00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:52,520
the wider public.
Stop working for that awful man.
1052
00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:57,680
You know that I can't compete
with the the textile mills that
1053
00:57:57,680 --> 00:58:01,280
they have these days, darling.
I've been showing your clothes
1054
00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:03,920
everywhere I go.
I've been going like the weave
1055
00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:07,800
leaf on the wind, as Wordsworth
once said.
1056
00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:13,720
Something beautiful.
I can't remember anything but.
1057
00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:18,760
You always were so well read.
Your dear old son is doing quite
1058
00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:21,160
well.
He's well known across all of
1059
00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:24,960
London and and England will soon
know Tom Jones.
1060
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:27,400
Well, I, I, I don't doubt it,
dear.
1061
00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:29,640
I don't doubt it.
I just make sure that you're
1062
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:31,720
eating well.
It's tough out there these days.
1063
00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:35,640
Oh yes, absolutely, ma'am.
It's it is definitely tough, but
1064
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:38,200
I found some great people along
the road.
1065
00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:42,880
I'm with a doctor right now.
I'm helping him look for his
1066
00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:47,160
brother in some small village
called Manistee.
1067
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:50,720
Ring a bell?
It sounds familiar, but I I
1068
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:53,320
can't say I I don't I don't
really know.
1069
00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:56,640
Perfect.
That is totally fine Mom.
1070
00:58:56,640 --> 00:59:01,720
I went to Keswick and then to
this small little town helping a
1071
00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:05,320
doctor.
I do have a question to ask you,
1072
00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:08,160
mother.
Do you know anyone named
1073
00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:14,640
Jeffrey?
Jeffrey Jeffrey Wolfson, he we
1074
00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:17,800
see him at church.
Yes, I remember him.
1075
00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:20,200
I I don't really know any other
Jeffreys.
1076
00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:22,400
I'm sorry.
Sorry.
1077
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:25,520
Are you looking for a There are
a lot of Jeffreys in the in the
1078
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:27,720
land you know.
Oh yes, it's a very common name.
1079
00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:32,200
I just the name slipped.
What about a Michael Laws?
1080
00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:35,920
Anyone named Laws?
No, I I don't know anyone named
1081
00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:37,720
laws.
I'm I'm sorry, dear.
1082
00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:41,120
You might need to look in a
well, I was going to say phone
1083
00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:42,120
book.
Are there phone books?
1084
00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:43,320
I guess there's maybe a phone
book?
1085
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:47,480
I will call the director or the
operators.
1086
00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:51,280
Yes, the operators, The
switchboard people, yes.
1087
00:59:51,320 --> 00:59:53,840
OK, Mother, you have helped me
out a lot.
1088
00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:57,240
God bless you.
I hope you are in good health.
1089
00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:00,520
And yes.
Nothing else you wanted to ask
1090
01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:06,520
me, darling.
It's it is a crazy, crazy story.
1091
01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:11,680
There was a picture that my
friends and associates found
1092
01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:17,400
that apparently a small child, a
baby apparently looks like me
1093
01:00:17,400 --> 01:00:20,040
and I was being held by another
family.
1094
01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:25,840
They think that I'm adopted.
Oh, darling, sweetie, Thomas I
1095
01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:29,040
that is.
That is true.
1096
01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:32,880
Before you tell me anything,
Mother, that's not true.
1097
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:34,360
I'm gonna.
I'm gonna go.
1098
01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:38,680
I can barely hear you right now.
And you have a great day.
1099
01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:39,920
Love you.
Click.
1100
01:00:40,320 --> 01:00:43,640
Ha ha.
That that that rattled fucking
1101
01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:46,440
old Todd Jonesy.
That really rattled him.
1102
01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:50,280
I think that might be a two
point loss for you.
1103
01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:53,120
OK, a second round for my
friend.
1104
01:00:54,520 --> 01:00:58,840
No, ignorance is bliss.
You just Yeah, you rolled A6.
1105
01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:01,480
Obviously not true.
Your mom's too old.
1106
01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:02,360
She doesn't know what she's
talking.
1107
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:04,720
About she's up there in it.
Yes, Jen and Todd, actually, you
1108
01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:05,920
know what?
I'll take a Brandy.
1109
01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:12,640
A What she means Brandy.
No, OK, don't have much, but OK.
1110
01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:15,600
It's not not what it's called.
It's not called a Brander.
1111
01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:17,600
Helen just size and Pats him on
the shoulder.
1112
01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:23,640
That is also devastating.
All right, Doctor laws, While
1113
01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:25,880
these phone conversations were
going on, you made your way to
1114
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:30,880
the back and you knocked on the
door to the room.
1115
01:01:31,120 --> 01:01:34,880
But do you get no response?
Well, as is our custom when
1116
01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:37,320
dealing with my brother, I will
knock louder than required.
1117
01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:40,240
Open up.
You hear it Sounds like kind of
1118
01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:43,360
a groan coming from in there.
Go away.
1119
01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:45,920
Jeffrey, open up with me.
Michael.
1120
01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:48,240
Yes, it's me, your brother.
What are you doing?
1121
01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:52,760
And you hear the sound of
movement, and the door opens.
1122
01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:57,880
And you were right, of course.
The Jeff that they were talking
1123
01:01:57,880 --> 01:02:00,480
about is your dear brother
Jeffrey.
1124
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:03,960
And to put it bluntly, he looks
like shit.
1125
01:02:04,960 --> 01:02:09,400
He seems to be sweating like
crazy, His skin looks rather
1126
01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:12,320
pale, and most importantly, he
looks like he hasn't been
1127
01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:14,280
sleeping and looks almost
panicked.
1128
01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:17,480
It it.
It's good to see you, Michael.
1129
01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:19,480
I What?
What are you doing here?
1130
01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:22,240
Well, we found this picture and
we've extrapolated that we've
1131
01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:24,880
probably adopted some strange
dreams and happenings have me
1132
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:27,440
thinking that maybe I'm destined
to sacrifice you in a standing
1133
01:02:27,440 --> 01:02:30,680
circle.
I'm sorry, what?
1134
01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:35,160
Why would you open with that I?
Me and my brother have a special
1135
01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:37,160
bond.
He just goes and lays back down
1136
01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:41,160
on the bed.
I think I'm dying.
1137
01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:45,080
Not yet you're not.
No, I know you're a doctor and
1138
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:47,440
you keep people from dying, but
but I can't.
1139
01:02:47,640 --> 01:02:51,080
And you see that he's like
touching his wrist, touching his
1140
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:54,960
neck, and he says like, I don't,
I don't have a heartbeat there.
1141
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:58,440
There's something wrong with me?
This seems like a job for first
1142
01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:01,040
aid.
Actually, this would be less
1143
01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:05,440
first aid, because first aid is
the actual like going in and
1144
01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:08,160
fixing someone, which I suppose
you're going to do.
1145
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:11,160
But to diagnose someone, to
figure out what's wrong with
1146
01:03:11,160 --> 01:03:13,840
them, that is a medicine.
Hey, if nobody else has been
1147
01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:16,080
here on first aid.
You don't also have medicine.
1148
01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:17,200
I do.
OK.
1149
01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:21,200
Well, regardless, first aid or
medicine can get you.
1150
01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:24,960
As you go over to him and start,
you do try to take his pulse.
1151
01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:28,880
And he's right.
You can't find his pulse on his
1152
01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:32,320
wrist, on his carotid, or
anywhere else.
1153
01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:36,880
He feels very clammy to the
touch and he looks very pale.
1154
01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:42,040
He says that his skin feels
loose, and as you're just sort
1155
01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:47,320
of examining him, it you don't
really know how to say this.
1156
01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:53,320
D glove.
No, he seems to be dead, or at
1157
01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:58,520
least not alive by any normal
sense of medicine.
1158
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:02,120
He does not have any of the
things that an alive person
1159
01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:04,400
should have.
Well, Jeffrey, it seems like
1160
01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:06,600
your tickers stop ticking.
We ought to get a drink in you
1161
01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:10,080
and figure this out.
All right, this will be a five
1162
01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:11,600
loss of stability.
Perfect.
1163
01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:16,680
How do you keep rolling?
Nothing phases you.
1164
01:04:17,120 --> 01:04:21,880
This should be should probably
bother you, doctor.
1165
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:26,680
OK, well, OK, he says.
I don't think I could drink
1166
01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:29,680
anything.
I'm not thirsty or hungry.
1167
01:04:29,760 --> 01:04:32,920
I just feel so sick brother.
Well, let's test your
1168
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:35,800
hypothesis.
So do you like sort of get him
1169
01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:37,840
up at all about to the bar?
Yes.
1170
01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:43,160
OK, as you 2 are wrapping up
your phone calls you see the
1171
01:04:43,160 --> 01:04:47,400
doctor coming out with a man
who, as previously mentioned,
1172
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:50,360
looks like shit.
Jonesy raises a glass.
1173
01:04:50,400 --> 01:04:52,320
Goes here.
Here he found his brother.
1174
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:55,840
Hear that everybody?
He found his long lost brother.
1175
01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:58,120
Yes, Jonesy.
Helen, this is my brother
1176
01:04:58,120 --> 01:05:00,360
Jeffrey.
Introduce yourself, Jeffrey.
1177
01:05:01,440 --> 01:05:07,120
Hello, I'm I'm sorry, can I go
lay back down brother or go I I
1178
01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:10,920
think I'm dying.
He looks really bad, Doctor.
1179
01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:13,240
Oh my God, please get that man
somehow.
1180
01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:15,480
Why don't we have him actually
sit down?
1181
01:05:15,480 --> 01:05:19,440
Let's is there like a booth or
the table we can sit him down
1182
01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:20,800
at?
There is, yeah.
1183
01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:23,280
And so Jonesy pulls out a chair
and goes.
1184
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:24,840
Sit down, Sir.
Thank you.
1185
01:05:25,080 --> 01:05:26,480
Thank you.
At Gin and Tonic.
1186
01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:29,760
Can I just have a water baby?
Gin and tonic.
1187
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:31,960
Bottle of your most sterile
Brandy.
1188
01:05:32,160 --> 01:05:33,160
A water.
What?
1189
01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:36,720
The lady said.
In any case, I don't mean to
1190
01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:40,080
jump right into business when
you are clearly so ill, but
1191
01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:41,680
before anything else, I must
ask.
1192
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:44,920
Helen pulls out the sketch.
Have you dreamed of this
1193
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:48,360
location anytime recently?
It's why I'm here.
1194
01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:51,000
I thought so.
I've been dreaming of this place
1195
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:54,600
and I I had to come here.
I knew I had to come here.
1196
01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:57,280
But you're glad to see me.
It is always good to see you
1197
01:05:57,280 --> 01:05:59,680
brother.
I don't think I can do it.
1198
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:03,000
I feel so sick.
Maybe we should take him to
1199
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:06,560
Keswick, to the hospital like.
Yeah, what happened to him?
1200
01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:09,960
He does not look good, doctor.
Yeah, that seems like it might
1201
01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:11,800
be a decent idea.
Nonsense.
1202
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:15,840
I'm the Doctor here.
There's something weirdly funny
1203
01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,680
about the two random people
having more compassion for this
1204
01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:22,440
man's brother than the
compassionate Dr. Isn't one of
1205
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:24,920
your things that you care about
people in that written on your
1206
01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:26,480
character sheet?
I save lives.
1207
01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:28,720
Humanity is essentially good.
Yeah, yes.
1208
01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:29,840
We should take him to the
doctor.
1209
01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:33,720
Not doctor, hospital I suppose.
Yes, yeah, yeah, No, that would
1210
01:06:33,720 --> 01:06:36,720
be that's probably for the best
to go to the hospital.
1211
01:06:36,720 --> 01:06:40,720
I can't if for some reason I I
knew I had to come here, but now
1212
01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:44,160
I don't know what I need to do.
And I think, I think maybe I'm
1213
01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:46,680
just going crazy.
I know what that feels like.
1214
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:51,400
When does the next ferry leave?
The woman looks up, comes by
1215
01:06:51,400 --> 01:06:53,680
around 5:00.
Oh, it's still in the morning.
1216
01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:57,920
Oh, well, we could.
Maybe this is a crazy idea.
1217
01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:05,560
Why don't we go possibly to the
South and take a just a quick
1218
01:07:05,560 --> 01:07:07,760
look and see if we can find
those pillars?
1219
01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:11,200
I'm kind of curious if those
actually exist, but it's up to
1220
01:07:11,200 --> 01:07:13,000
you Sir.
Are you able to walk?
1221
01:07:13,400 --> 01:07:16,920
I can walk, but I I'm fine to go
to the hospital.
1222
01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:20,560
That's probably a good idea, but
could I just go lay back down
1223
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:23,720
until it's time to go?
Yes, I think at best you rest
1224
01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:27,680
and that we investigate.
Also, did I never mention that I
1225
01:07:27,680 --> 01:07:29,880
found out where the pillars
were?
1226
01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:33,560
No, actually.
Oh my apologies, there is an
1227
01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:38,080
intact stone circle that is to
the north of this location.
1228
01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:41,520
How about weed?
Get your brother back into bed,
1229
01:07:41,520 --> 01:07:46,040
doctor, and see for ourselves.
It is across the Moors.
1230
01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:48,680
It would be across the Moors,
yeah.
1231
01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:52,600
So probably too long of a walk
to get back by 5.
1232
01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:55,280
Yeah, unfortunately it's a
little bit too far to go there
1233
01:07:55,280 --> 01:07:57,440
if you want to get back by 5,
the woman says.
1234
01:07:57,520 --> 01:07:59,080
Well, I'm glad you're taking
care of him.
1235
01:07:59,080 --> 01:08:02,320
I don't really want anybody to
die in my inn.
1236
01:08:03,560 --> 01:08:06,880
But you're going to go meet up
with Jack's wife, Did you?
1237
01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:08,920
Did you want to to see her?
Oh.
1238
01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:11,640
Certainly.
She's still in town, very much
1239
01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:14,000
so.
Well, Jack hasn't been in town
1240
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:18,560
for a little while, but his wife
is, so maybe you could see her.
1241
01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:21,240
She lives in a the little house
up the way and she gives you
1242
01:08:21,640 --> 01:08:24,560
some directions to a house
that'll be the Waring house.
1243
01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:30,640
Well, I see if we have time we
could go see this fine lady.
1244
01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:33,560
And then be back in time to get
this man to a hospital.
1245
01:08:35,279 --> 01:08:37,800
Yes, I'll get Jeffrey tucked in
nice and snug.
1246
01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:40,920
If you'd like, you could make a
first aid check at difficulty 4
1247
01:08:40,920 --> 01:08:44,680
to give him something to to calm
him down to make him feel
1248
01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:46,279
better.
A spot of Brandy.
1249
01:08:46,399 --> 01:08:51,880
Yeah, suppose there's that too.
OK, didn't spend any points on
1250
01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:52,359
that.
No.
1251
01:08:52,359 --> 01:08:54,319
So he is not.
He's not reassured.
1252
01:08:54,319 --> 01:08:56,560
Very good at being stable, very
bad at first aid.
1253
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:01,359
Not a doctor.
Here's a lollipop for you,
1254
01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:03,479
Jeffrey.
I hope it makes you feel better.
1255
01:09:04,720 --> 01:09:08,439
Oh my God.
So it's a short walk away from
1256
01:09:08,439 --> 01:09:11,279
the center of town.
It's a small Gray cottage like
1257
01:09:11,279 --> 01:09:12,800
many of the other ones around
here.
1258
01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:16,000
It's got a short little dirt
driveway away from the main
1259
01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:18,720
road.
As you're walking up, Doctor, in
1260
01:09:18,720 --> 01:09:23,479
particular, you are feeling a
sense of familiarity that the
1261
01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:27,520
bird song you're hearing, the
crunch of gravel, it all feels
1262
01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:31,319
very familiar to you, Helen.
You're also feeling that a
1263
01:09:31,319 --> 01:09:34,279
little bit, mostly like the bird
song seems to be triggering a
1264
01:09:34,279 --> 01:09:38,319
little bit of a memory to you.
I will say, Jonesy, not so much
1265
01:09:38,319 --> 01:09:40,960
you, maybe just because you were
so young the last time you were
1266
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:43,120
here.
And you approach the door, and
1267
01:09:43,120 --> 01:09:49,399
before you knock, Doctor, you
know without a doubt that the
1268
01:09:49,399 --> 01:09:53,479
wallpaper behind that door is
going to be yellow with a Tulip
1269
01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:55,880
design.
Hey, Jonesy.
1270
01:09:57,040 --> 01:09:59,520
Jonesy.
Yes, Doctor, Sorry, it was in my
1271
01:09:59,520 --> 01:10:01,720
head.
What do you how much you want to
1272
01:10:01,720 --> 01:10:04,280
bet that the wallpaper in this
place is yellow with a Tulip
1273
01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:07,160
design?
It's our adopted home, remember?
1274
01:10:07,440 --> 01:10:11,840
Well, you're adopted.
No, no, all all three of us,
1275
01:10:11,840 --> 01:10:16,000
we're all definitely adopted.
A gentleman's bet, How about
1276
01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:17,160
that?
Sure.
1277
01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:21,040
What's that mean?
It means I don't pay anything.
1278
01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:23,640
Well, Ben.
Excellent.
1279
01:10:23,640 --> 01:10:25,240
Let's shake on it.
All right.
1280
01:10:25,440 --> 01:10:27,800
Shookt.
Do you hear some giggling coming
1281
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,400
from inside the house?
Sounds like like a young woman,
1282
01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:33,280
maybe 2 of them.
Well, I'll knock on the door
1283
01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:35,760
extra loud, as is my custom.
Open up.
1284
01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:41,400
You knock on the door and
opening the door is a quiet,
1285
01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:44,240
mousy sort of woman.
She looks like she's in her her
1286
01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:49,560
late 30s maybe, and she smiles,
but is you could tell there's a
1287
01:10:49,560 --> 01:10:51,520
little bit of a concern on her
eyes.
1288
01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:55,640
It says hello, Can I can I help
you?
1289
01:10:56,720 --> 01:10:58,920
Hi, I'm Doctor Michael Loss.
Are we related?
1290
01:10:59,920 --> 01:11:05,160
I no, I'm my name is, is Mary
wearing?
1291
01:11:05,160 --> 01:11:07,440
I don't know any laws, I'm
sorry.
1292
01:11:07,440 --> 01:11:08,800
I think you might be in the
wrong place.
1293
01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:10,520
You know who does know some
laws?
1294
01:11:10,720 --> 01:11:16,440
This guy right here, Jonesy.
Yes, I do know Doctor Laws.
1295
01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:22,400
My name is Tom Jones, and he
tips his hat like gentleman
1296
01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:24,240
extraordinaire.
And your name is Ma'am?
1297
01:11:25,120 --> 01:11:28,560
My name is Mary Wearing.
I'm sorry, are you are you
1298
01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:31,680
selling something?
I'm I'm sorry.
1299
01:11:31,680 --> 01:11:36,320
I, if you, if you need a cup of
tea, I can give you something,
1300
01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:38,280
but I, I'm confused.
What?
1301
01:11:38,800 --> 01:11:41,920
And she actually kind of looks
over at you as well.
1302
01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:44,480
You whose character's name I
forgot, Helen.
1303
01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:48,680
She looks over at you as well.
Helen maybe with a little bit of
1304
01:11:48,680 --> 01:11:51,960
a pleading, seeing if you will
make any of this make sense
1305
01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:54,280
'cause she's extremely confused
by this situation.
1306
01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:57,560
Time to play that all time
classic assurance card.
1307
01:11:57,920 --> 01:12:00,560
Sorry if my companions seem
strange.
1308
01:12:01,480 --> 01:12:07,520
We're in town investigating our
parentage as it were, with this
1309
01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:11,640
as our only clue, and I show her
the picture.
1310
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:18,080
Oh oh.
Yes, I don't suppose you could
1311
01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:21,280
help us?
Oh, you must be Jack's kids from
1312
01:12:21,280 --> 01:12:24,000
his previous marriage.
Sure, why not?
1313
01:12:24,800 --> 01:12:28,000
Oh, come, come in, come in.
I Yeah.
1314
01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:32,080
And as she opens the door more,
you do see behind her the
1315
01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:35,800
wallpaper.
Well, a little bit older is as
1316
01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:38,000
remembered.
Well, John, ZI think you owe me
1317
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:41,920
two handshakes.
All right, I wow, I'm quite
1318
01:12:41,920 --> 01:12:44,120
shocked.
Here you are.
1319
01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:46,800
Here's your first handshake and
I will give you that second
1320
01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:49,040
handshake later.
All right.
1321
01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:52,760
Yeah, we're very adopted.
Doctor Laws, that is going to be
1322
01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:56,040
a Stability 2 test.
I know you're sort of playing it
1323
01:12:56,040 --> 01:12:59,000
off here, but it's also sort of
very weird for you.
1324
01:12:59,600 --> 01:13:02,840
There we go.
OK, so you lose 2 still doing
1325
01:13:02,840 --> 01:13:07,520
fine, but you're bluster about
all of this is is maybe covering
1326
01:13:07,520 --> 01:13:09,040
up something that's a little
weird here.
1327
01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:13,520
She smiles and is pouring you
guys some tea and says yes.
1328
01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:17,960
I guess I don't really know too
much of what to say, but feel
1329
01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:21,680
free to to look around.
Get nostalgic for your own home
1330
01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:24,920
I suppose.
And you do hear some static
1331
01:13:25,080 --> 01:13:28,160
coming from one of the bathrooms
and two girls.
1332
01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:31,200
Oh, is that more Coltrane?
Doctor Law.
1333
01:13:32,040 --> 01:13:34,840
Excuse me ma'am, do you have a
radio in the house?
1334
01:13:35,440 --> 01:13:38,840
Yes, Lisa and Bethany are
playing it too loudly.
1335
01:13:39,080 --> 01:13:43,760
Lisa, Bethany, our guests don't
want to listen to jazz music.
1336
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:47,000
Turn that off.
Oh no, I am a big fan of jazz,
1337
01:13:47,080 --> 01:13:51,040
definitely from America, but
it's not English, It's not too
1338
01:13:51,040 --> 01:13:54,080
English.
Why don't we take a look?
1339
01:13:54,080 --> 01:13:57,440
If it's a little too loud, maybe
the knobs a little broken, I
1340
01:13:57,840 --> 01:13:59,480
will.
I'm a man that knows a little
1341
01:13:59,480 --> 01:14:01,960
bit of mechanical work I can
take.
1342
01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:05,600
Take a look for you.
I guess.
1343
01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:09,560
So.
I sure guess you'd sort of
1344
01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:14,280
motions towards the back and as
you go back there you see 22.
1345
01:14:14,280 --> 01:14:17,320
You could definitely tell they
are twins, two young girls,
1346
01:14:17,400 --> 01:14:21,160
probably about five years old,
5-6 years old, not particularly
1347
01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:23,520
old.
And they are laughing and
1348
01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:26,480
listening to the radio and you
see every once in awhile one of
1349
01:14:26,480 --> 01:14:29,240
them like whispers into the
radio and they both start
1350
01:14:29,240 --> 01:14:31,560
laughing.
I will dance.
1351
01:14:31,680 --> 01:14:34,040
You will dance.
Yes.
1352
01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:37,960
OK to the static.
Yes.
1353
01:14:38,320 --> 01:14:41,240
There's no real music to dance
to, it's just sort of static.
1354
01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:43,640
Yeah, that's a pretty unsettling
picture, right?
1355
01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:47,680
Yeah, actually, as you start
listening to it more, you know,
1356
01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:49,840
to dance to music, you have to
really listen to it.
1357
01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:56,960
It's not quite just static.
There's something to it.
1358
01:14:57,000 --> 01:15:00,680
There's maybe some sort of drum
or something like that, and
1359
01:15:00,680 --> 01:15:05,200
every once in a while you you
think you hear a voice, but you
1360
01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:07,240
can't quite make out what it's
saying.
1361
01:15:07,240 --> 01:15:10,200
Mostly you just hear static.
I don't trust like that.
1362
01:15:10,480 --> 01:15:13,760
Excuse me, you 2 find young
girls?
1363
01:15:13,960 --> 01:15:18,040
My name is Tom Jones, Jonesy as
you can call me.
1364
01:15:18,560 --> 01:15:22,360
Do you mind if you turn that
down just a little bit?
1365
01:15:22,560 --> 01:15:29,280
Just a little bit.
OK, I like your dance, Mr. He's
1366
01:15:29,280 --> 01:15:33,200
silly.
Oh, Doctor Lazius, he's a very
1367
01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:35,320
silly man.
Why don't you go say hi to him
1368
01:15:35,320 --> 01:15:39,080
and dance along while I help
turn down the the music?
1369
01:15:39,440 --> 01:15:41,560
Mommy said we're not supposed to
dance anymore.
1370
01:15:41,760 --> 01:15:44,520
No, she told us not to dance
when we did the other thing.
1371
01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:46,040
It's fine.
We can dance.
1372
01:15:46,040 --> 01:15:48,640
We can dance all we want.
When they go out and they start
1373
01:15:48,640 --> 01:15:50,960
dancing around you in a circle.
Dr. Loss.
1374
01:15:51,280 --> 01:15:54,920
Just remember to leave your
friends behind if they don't
1375
01:15:54,920 --> 01:15:59,240
dance, and if they can't dance,
they ain't no friends of yours.
1376
01:15:59,240 --> 01:16:02,000
And he turns down the music.
No, my friends have to come.
1377
01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:04,280
You, you.
You Can Dance behind me and
1378
01:16:04,440 --> 01:16:08,920
Helena can bring the shovel.
You mean Helen, not Helena?
1379
01:16:09,480 --> 01:16:12,640
Correct.
Speaking of Helen, meanwhile,
1380
01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:16,120
good news to talk to Mary so.
Yeah, this has been a great
1381
01:16:16,120 --> 01:16:19,680
excuse for, like, the doctors
keeping the kids busy and like,
1382
01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:22,960
Josie is messing with the radio.
We kind of leaving you alone
1383
01:16:23,240 --> 01:16:26,560
with her.
So what can you tell us about
1384
01:16:26,560 --> 01:16:28,240
your husband?
About Jack.
1385
01:16:28,760 --> 01:16:34,280
I he's he's not around.
She seems uncomfortable and
1386
01:16:34,280 --> 01:16:37,000
maybe not willing to talk about
it.
1387
01:16:37,360 --> 01:16:40,760
There are a couple ways to read
that, but I suspect he walked
1388
01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:42,440
out.
I'm not saying this in
1389
01:16:42,440 --> 01:16:44,480
character, I'm just making a
personal note.
1390
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:48,160
If you would like, you could try
one of your interpersonal skills
1391
01:16:48,160 --> 01:16:50,160
to try to get her to talk a
little bit more.
1392
01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:53,160
Yeah, reassurance is the old
classic.
1393
01:16:53,240 --> 01:16:55,680
Reassurance is not going to
really work on her though.
1394
01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:57,480
I didn't think so.
Yeah.
1395
01:16:57,880 --> 01:17:00,840
I'd feel like a real asshole if
I tried intimidation.
1396
01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:04,040
You could try it, but yes that
would be an asshole move.
1397
01:17:04,400 --> 01:17:08,200
I think I'm going to go for
flattery.
1398
01:17:08,480 --> 01:17:12,440
OK, I'm going to say well, as it
were, you've you seem to have
1399
01:17:12,440 --> 01:17:15,800
done very well raising these two
girls without him.
1400
01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:18,320
They are 5.
How long have you been raising
1401
01:17:18,320 --> 01:17:20,920
them with without him?
And that's going to do it.
1402
01:17:20,920 --> 01:17:22,160
That's sort of going to unlock
it.
1403
01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:28,560
Jack left before they were born.
I was pregnant one day.
1404
01:17:28,560 --> 01:17:32,520
He, I mean, he'd been having bad
dreams for a while and then one
1405
01:17:32,520 --> 01:17:36,200
day he just just left.
He didn't even pack up his
1406
01:17:36,200 --> 01:17:38,120
stuff.
He didn't tell anyone where he
1407
01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:40,520
was going.
He just disappeared, walked
1408
01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:42,640
away.
Did he ever mention a stone
1409
01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:44,600
circle?
No, I don't.
1410
01:17:45,200 --> 01:17:49,560
He said so many things about his
dreams, but I don't really
1411
01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:51,360
remember anything about a stone
circle.
1412
01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:54,080
Sorry.
I see.
1413
01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:58,840
Thank you.
I know that he, I don't, I don't
1414
01:17:58,840 --> 01:18:02,440
know.
But you know, we make do, make
1415
01:18:02,440 --> 01:18:06,880
do now.
But yes, I'm sorry about Jack.
1416
01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:10,520
He, he's not here.
And your mother, I oh God, she
1417
01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:15,520
sort of catches herself.
Do you know about your your
1418
01:18:15,520 --> 01:18:17,720
mother?
No.
1419
01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:22,520
What is there to tell?
Jack never really told me too
1420
01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:27,640
much, but from what I understand
she she took all of you away,
1421
01:18:28,360 --> 01:18:33,360
put you up for adoption and then
never told Jack where he went.
1422
01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:36,200
They found her dead in a hotel
in London.
1423
01:18:37,240 --> 01:18:39,600
Suicide.
I see I.
1424
01:18:40,640 --> 01:18:43,160
Don't I know what would make a
person do that?
1425
01:18:43,160 --> 01:18:49,080
I think it it really hurt Jack,
but he did his best to move on.
1426
01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:51,480
He was he was a good man.
He was a kind man, a
1427
01:18:51,480 --> 01:18:54,360
knowledgeable man.
He was so well learned.
1428
01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:56,480
He he ran the school here in
town.
1429
01:18:56,480 --> 01:19:01,280
I know he had an office down in
the school and then he just,
1430
01:19:02,080 --> 01:19:05,400
he's just gone, started having
those awful dreams.
1431
01:19:05,640 --> 01:19:08,400
I do want to just cut over to
the little girls that are
1432
01:19:08,520 --> 01:19:10,160
dancing around and laughing with
you.
1433
01:19:10,520 --> 01:19:12,640
Are you doing anything in
particular with the girls?
1434
01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:15,040
Dancing and laughing.
Dancing and laughing.
1435
01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:17,120
Perfect, cool.
Nothing else is.
1436
01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:18,320
Just having a good time with
them.
1437
01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:23,160
Grand old time.
Grand Old Time and Jonesy, do
1438
01:19:23,160 --> 01:19:25,280
you try to mess with the radio
at all or you're just turning it
1439
01:19:25,280 --> 01:19:27,040
down and.
Then yeah, I'm just trying to
1440
01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:30,520
turn it down just enough so I
stop hearing the static.
1441
01:19:30,560 --> 01:19:33,840
It's really getting to me.
Yeah, as you're getting closer
1442
01:19:33,840 --> 01:19:37,920
to the radio, definitely there's
a voice in there that's saying
1443
01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:40,320
something.
Can't quite make it out though.
1444
01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:44,160
Yeah, no, just turns it off.
Just turns it off.
1445
01:19:44,160 --> 01:19:47,560
Yeah, no.
The fact that you are just going
1446
01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:50,560
to turn it off means that you're
only going to suffer a possible
1447
01:19:50,560 --> 01:19:54,400
2 point loss.
OK, damn, that got to me.
1448
01:19:55,240 --> 01:19:58,560
Yeah, heebie jeebies.
Yeah, I don't, I don't really
1449
01:19:58,560 --> 01:20:02,400
know anything else to to tell
you, She says that she sort of
1450
01:20:02,400 --> 01:20:05,000
just sort of mutters and and
looks away.
1451
01:20:05,480 --> 01:20:08,480
Well, I appreciate it.
You truly have been helpful to
1452
01:20:08,480 --> 01:20:10,360
us.
Is there anything else that you
1453
01:20:10,360 --> 01:20:12,360
would like to do around here,
Jonesy?
1454
01:20:12,640 --> 01:20:15,400
I would say everyone is
distracted.
1455
01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:18,560
Oh, yeah.
Oh yeah, Jonesy is going to just
1456
01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:22,480
kind of rub his hands a little
bit and just goes, OK, what can
1457
01:20:22,480 --> 01:20:29,200
we find here today, Jonesy?
No Jonesy after she's been so
1458
01:20:29,200 --> 01:20:31,920
helpful.
Come on.
1459
01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:34,240
Yeah, I'm just going to look
around and see if there's like
1460
01:20:34,360 --> 01:20:37,200
anything that's remotely
expensive.
1461
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:40,520
Nothing too expensive that's out
here.
1462
01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:42,800
You do know that maybe there
could be something valuable in
1463
01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:44,840
the bath.
That also is a very reasonable
1464
01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:46,720
thing to be like, oh, I'm going
to the bathroom.
1465
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:49,480
Like I could sort of sneak in
there and that's like totally
1466
01:20:49,480 --> 01:20:53,160
reasonable something to do.
Oh yes, I'm heading to the water
1467
01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:55,440
closet.
I definitely need to relieve
1468
01:20:55,440 --> 01:20:59,080
myself.
Yeah, you notice that the
1469
01:20:59,080 --> 01:21:01,800
bathroom mirror, it's an older
mirror.
1470
01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:04,040
I suppose it could be worth
something, but it's not like you
1471
01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:06,480
could actually lift the mirror
out and steal it.
1472
01:21:06,480 --> 01:21:08,240
It's maybe.
It's a little too heavy for.
1473
01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:12,400
Jonesy Too heavy for that, a
little too fragile, but there
1474
01:21:12,400 --> 01:21:17,960
are some weird scratches on it
about head level and they seem
1475
01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:22,200
to like sort of form the shape
of a head just like all
1476
01:21:22,200 --> 01:21:25,920
scratched up, maybe with just
like someone's hands or maybe
1477
01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:28,840
even like a small knife.
There's horizontal lines running
1478
01:21:28,840 --> 01:21:32,600
across it, though, and then
there's like some eyes that are
1479
01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:35,960
carved in there with like sort
of XS that sort of look like
1480
01:21:35,960 --> 01:21:39,200
slits.
It seems like somebody was
1481
01:21:39,200 --> 01:21:42,240
looking at their face and doing
something to it.
1482
01:21:42,240 --> 01:21:46,440
It almost looks like he drew a
face or someone gender.
1483
01:21:46,480 --> 01:21:48,200
I don't know.
It's it was probably Jack.
1484
01:21:48,240 --> 01:21:52,080
It was like scratching out a
face, and in particular it was a
1485
01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:59,160
face with two slits for eyes.
Oh, oh, wow, that's slightly
1486
01:21:59,160 --> 01:22:01,680
disturbing.
And so is this one of those
1487
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:04,440
like, is it just like a solid
mirror or is it something that's
1488
01:22:04,440 --> 01:22:07,240
kind of like a little cabinet,
like a like a pill cabinet?
1489
01:22:07,520 --> 01:22:10,440
It is a solid mirror, but there
is a cabinet around here that
1490
01:22:10,440 --> 01:22:12,600
you could you could go through
as well.
1491
01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:13,960
Let's.
Check that.
1492
01:22:14,440 --> 01:22:16,920
There's some small little bits
of medicine here and there, you
1493
01:22:16,920 --> 01:22:21,400
know, like a little.
No, My knowledge of 30s medicine
1494
01:22:21,400 --> 01:22:24,960
is limited, but there's a couple
things you could just pick up
1495
01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:28,400
here real easily.
Jonesy kind of looks at the
1496
01:22:28,480 --> 01:22:32,360
like, thinks about the kids,
thinks about the mother and
1497
01:22:32,360 --> 01:22:36,600
looks at the pills, looks at the
mirror, looks back at the pills,
1498
01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:40,160
looks at the mirror and just
goes I'm going to take one
1499
01:22:40,160 --> 01:22:44,520
bottle, just one, and it's going
to be the one that's the looks
1500
01:22:44,520 --> 01:22:47,560
like the most expensive.
Yeah, you could do that
1501
01:22:47,640 --> 01:22:50,200
actually.
Make a filch roll.
1502
01:22:50,440 --> 01:22:55,120
Oh yeah, absolutely.
Difficulty 4 Would you like to
1503
01:22:55,120 --> 01:22:57,360
spend any points?
I'm gonna spend 4 points.
1504
01:22:57,720 --> 01:23:00,600
I will say this, you don't.
You don't want to spend 4
1505
01:23:00,600 --> 01:23:01,880
points.
That's kind of a waste.
1506
01:23:02,040 --> 01:23:05,000
You could spend 3 points to get
a four because you'll roll.
1507
01:23:05,000 --> 01:23:07,240
I'll spend 3 points.
Yeah, perfect.
1508
01:23:07,600 --> 01:23:09,840
OK, so then that's an automatic
success.
1509
01:23:10,320 --> 01:23:13,200
Perfect.
You not only find a nice little
1510
01:23:13,200 --> 01:23:14,680
bottle of pills, but also as
you're going through, it's like,
1511
01:23:15,040 --> 01:23:17,400
oh, there's like a man shaving
razor in here.
1512
01:23:17,400 --> 01:23:20,040
It's some shaving cream that's
like a little old that you're
1513
01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:21,680
also like, oh, I could totally
take this.
1514
01:23:21,680 --> 01:23:23,120
Nobody's going to be using this
either.
1515
01:23:23,760 --> 01:23:26,280
A gentleman needs a clean shaven
face.
1516
01:23:26,440 --> 01:23:30,000
Yeah, so I'm taking that razor.
Yeah, You have a, you know, a
1517
01:23:30,040 --> 01:23:32,120
straight razor.
Nothing could be bad about that.
1518
01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:34,880
The girls are sort of laughing
along.
1519
01:23:34,880 --> 01:23:37,720
It's singing with you, doctor.
And they say, like, do you know
1520
01:23:37,720 --> 01:23:39,760
the song?
Could you sing the song?
1521
01:23:40,840 --> 01:23:42,760
No, no, I don't understand
music, really.
1522
01:23:43,200 --> 01:23:46,280
Oh, OK, OK.
We have to sing them down and
1523
01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:48,120
then they get up and then
everything's great.
1524
01:23:48,320 --> 01:23:50,160
I like your funny words,
children.
1525
01:23:51,880 --> 01:23:54,160
We like you too.
Are we friends?
1526
01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:57,800
We are friends.
They both sort of give you a hug
1527
01:23:57,800 --> 01:24:01,440
around the leg.
Yeah, I'm popular with children.
1528
01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:05,800
Jonesy kind of walks out and
goes, wow, he's, he's a good
1529
01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:07,560
doctor.
He's a pretty friendly guy.
1530
01:24:07,920 --> 01:24:10,600
Yeah, you're a pediatrician.
I don't know what that word
1531
01:24:10,600 --> 01:24:12,600
means.
Kid doctor ah.
1532
01:24:13,600 --> 01:24:16,760
There we are, yes.
Is he one of those?
1533
01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:20,280
Yeah, I think that makes sense.
Yeah, that that would make you
1534
01:24:20,280 --> 01:24:22,400
more adorable.
Your your pediatrician.
1535
01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:24,880
That's why you had a lollipop to
give to your brother.
1536
01:24:24,920 --> 01:24:28,480
Exactly.
All right.
1537
01:24:29,160 --> 01:24:33,080
And Helen, the tea has been sort
of set out for everyone here,
1538
01:24:33,080 --> 01:24:36,680
but no, people seem to not be
drinking it except for perhaps
1539
01:24:36,720 --> 01:24:38,840
you.
And you do sort of get the
1540
01:24:38,960 --> 01:24:43,960
impression that, well, Mary's
being nice to you guys, but
1541
01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:47,680
isn't quite sure what to do
about what's happening here.
1542
01:24:48,240 --> 01:24:50,560
I mean, who?
Who would?
1543
01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:52,920
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't.
1544
01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:58,560
There's nothing I else I know
about Jack really nothing else
1545
01:24:58,560 --> 01:25:04,000
to say.
But yeah, you can stay here as
1546
01:25:04,360 --> 01:25:06,760
if you need to for a little
while, but we don't really have
1547
01:25:06,760 --> 01:25:10,960
a place for you to sleep.
No, that's quite all right.
1548
01:25:11,240 --> 01:25:14,280
We need to be getting back to
the ferry by 5:00 anyway.
1549
01:25:14,400 --> 01:25:16,040
Oh.
My brother needs to go to the
1550
01:25:16,040 --> 01:25:18,880
hospital.
Oh, no, that does make sense.
1551
01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:21,640
He he had four children, right?
Oh, I'm sorry.
1552
01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:23,920
Your brother's not feeling well.
What?
1553
01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:25,880
What's wrong with it?
Well, he doesn't have a pulse,
1554
01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:27,640
and it seems like his skin's
about to fall off.
1555
01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:32,600
I'm sorry, what?
Helen did not know that this was
1556
01:25:32,720 --> 01:25:35,400
the extent of the.
Yeah, yeah.
1557
01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:37,480
Helen just knew that he was
feeling bad.
1558
01:25:37,600 --> 01:25:39,640
Actually, Helen, you hearing
that?
1559
01:25:39,640 --> 01:25:41,280
And Jonesy, do you hear that as
well?
1560
01:25:41,840 --> 01:25:44,520
Oh yeah, no, he spit out his tea
as soon as he heard that.
1561
01:25:44,920 --> 01:25:48,840
All right finding out that he is
not you know alive or at least
1562
01:25:48,840 --> 01:25:52,480
having the traditional ways of
being alive 3 point stability
1563
01:25:52,480 --> 01:25:57,160
loss take a check only three it
was five for his brother 3 for
1564
01:25:57,160 --> 01:26:00,760
you guys, although I guess you
are he is your brother sort of
1565
01:26:01,040 --> 01:26:04,520
but.
So I'm going to add a point
1566
01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:08,960
because like at this point, if
I, if I get hit with anything,
1567
01:26:08,960 --> 01:26:11,200
I'm out.
So I might as well try and avoid
1568
01:26:11,200 --> 01:26:14,120
that.
OK, not out, but like, yeah.
1569
01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:17,000
Oh, and of course, the one time
I do, I don't need to.
1570
01:26:19,880 --> 01:26:22,120
Can we just have a quick
stability check going down the
1571
01:26:22,120 --> 01:26:23,200
line?
How's everybody doing?
1572
01:26:25,920 --> 01:26:29,920
I have one stability.
Doctor's feeling fine with four.
1573
01:26:30,200 --> 01:26:34,600
Yeah, I'm down to three, OK.
Helen is anything away from
1574
01:26:34,600 --> 01:26:39,920
losing her God damn mind.
You see that definitely hearing
1575
01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:43,680
that, the sort of sick not
having a pulse seems to be.
1576
01:26:43,760 --> 01:26:46,760
You see, there's maybe a little
bit of a reaction from Mary at
1577
01:26:46,760 --> 01:26:49,040
first, but then she sort of
shakes her head, says, well, you
1578
01:26:49,040 --> 01:26:51,480
should probably take care of
your brother.
1579
01:26:51,760 --> 01:26:53,760
Oh, he'll be fine.
We see this sort of thing all
1580
01:26:53,760 --> 01:26:57,040
the time, I think.
Oh, oh, OK.
1581
01:26:58,400 --> 01:27:03,640
Well, good morning.
Yeah, let's thank you for the
1582
01:27:03,640 --> 01:27:06,440
tea ma'am.
I'm Jones.
1583
01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:11,800
Jonesy puts down his teacup and
tips his hat and says that he
1584
01:27:11,800 --> 01:27:14,360
looks at the 2 little girls
ladies and then he goes.
1585
01:27:14,560 --> 01:27:17,800
Shall we get to the fairy?
Let us away.
1586
01:27:18,360 --> 01:27:21,040
Indeed, though at some point I
would like to check out the
1587
01:27:21,040 --> 01:27:23,520
school, take a look through his
old office.
1588
01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:25,200
There's time to check the
school, probably.
1589
01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:28,840
OK, I'll give his office a once
over if they haven't, you know,
1590
01:27:29,240 --> 01:27:31,560
put somebody else in it or
something like that.
1591
01:27:31,560 --> 01:27:34,320
Does anybody have the ability
assess honesty?
1592
01:27:34,480 --> 01:27:36,040
I have two points.
In I do.
1593
01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:38,680
Might want to use it is all I'm
saying.
1594
01:27:39,160 --> 01:27:41,400
Last time I'm going to try to
remind you about this, but it
1595
01:27:41,400 --> 01:27:44,200
might be a a thing to consider
using.
1596
01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:46,720
I don't know that I've heard
anything that I need to assess
1597
01:27:46,800 --> 01:27:48,560
honesty for.
OK, then I guess we're good.
1598
01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:51,040
No, I have.
If you're ever talking to
1599
01:27:51,040 --> 01:27:53,760
somebody, remember you can use
assess honesty.
1600
01:27:54,040 --> 01:27:56,160
Probably most of the time people
will be telling you the truth,
1601
01:27:56,160 --> 01:27:58,040
but it's something to to
remember and consider.
1602
01:27:58,240 --> 01:27:59,720
Well, humanity is essentially
good.
1603
01:27:59,720 --> 01:28:02,360
No one would ever lie to me.
Yes, of course.
1604
01:28:03,400 --> 01:28:04,800
Forget.
I think it said that doctor.
1605
01:28:04,920 --> 01:28:09,280
She was a little too quick to
accept your assessment of your
1606
01:28:09,280 --> 01:28:10,840
brother.
Well, I'm a professional.
1607
01:28:10,840 --> 01:28:11,880
I know what I'm talking about,
no?
1608
01:28:12,120 --> 01:28:16,520
No, no, we, we, me and me and
Jonesy reacted like people.
1609
01:28:16,680 --> 01:28:19,160
We were stunned.
She barely reacted.
1610
01:28:19,560 --> 01:28:21,640
And you're supposed to react to
these things.
1611
01:28:22,560 --> 01:28:26,120
Are you a sociopath?
I don't know what that word
1612
01:28:26,120 --> 01:28:27,720
means.
It's fine, doesn't matter
1613
01:28:27,880 --> 01:28:30,000
anyway.
Yeah, she seemed to be reacting
1614
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:33,080
a little weirdly when she didn't
quite react the same way as
1615
01:28:33,080 --> 01:28:34,400
everybody else when she said
that.
1616
01:28:35,240 --> 01:28:38,480
Well, if you listen to static
all day, it does kind of get to
1617
01:28:38,480 --> 01:28:40,360
you.
There's something she's not
1618
01:28:40,360 --> 01:28:43,080
telling us, and I don't know
what it is.
1619
01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:44,960
I suppose that's why she didn't
tell us.
1620
01:28:45,360 --> 01:28:49,760
Yeah, yeah, there's definitely
something about in particular,
1621
01:28:50,000 --> 01:28:52,240
you know, talking about that and
talking about Jack.
1622
01:28:52,240 --> 01:28:55,040
It seems like she's trying to
avoid saying something about
1623
01:28:55,040 --> 01:28:58,800
Jack, but not because she's like
trying to keep some sort of
1624
01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:02,680
terrible secret or anything.
It's more that she's like, Nah,
1625
01:29:02,680 --> 01:29:04,840
I don't need to say that.
That's that's nothing.
1626
01:29:04,840 --> 01:29:07,160
That's ridiculous.
Sort of a thought in her head.
1627
01:29:07,160 --> 01:29:08,480
That's sort of the vibe you're
getting.
1628
01:29:08,480 --> 01:29:10,960
It's like she she was going to
say something, but then she
1629
01:29:10,960 --> 01:29:12,760
thought better of it.
Not because she's trying to keep
1630
01:29:12,760 --> 01:29:15,720
a secret, but just because she's
like, it's just a bunch of
1631
01:29:15,720 --> 01:29:16,720
strangers.
It doesn't matter.
1632
01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:18,720
I already got all the
information I could out of
1633
01:29:18,720 --> 01:29:23,520
flattery, so OK, somebody else
wants to double back and ask and
1634
01:29:23,520 --> 01:29:26,320
try questioning her.
Or you could head to the
1635
01:29:26,320 --> 01:29:30,600
schoolhouse, or back to the inn,
or I guess down to the town
1636
01:29:30,600 --> 01:29:34,200
ruins that Josie was interested
in, or whatever you want to do.
1637
01:29:34,360 --> 01:29:38,000
You probably have time to do one
more thing before the ferry
1638
01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:39,880
arrives.
We have time to do three more
1639
01:29:39,880 --> 01:29:42,360
things if we split up.
That's also true.
1640
01:29:42,880 --> 01:29:48,840
We went on the patrol before and
I don't sense anything troubling
1641
01:29:49,040 --> 01:29:52,480
yet, but.
Yeah, nothing scary or troubling
1642
01:29:52,480 --> 01:29:55,200
at all going.
On nothing just yet.
1643
01:29:55,200 --> 01:29:59,200
Nothing just yet.
I would like to at least take a
1644
01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:01,360
look at what Tiny was talking
about.
1645
01:30:01,360 --> 01:30:05,800
That might be just a a destroyed
building, but sometimes you can
1646
01:30:05,800 --> 01:30:08,960
find some of the greatest things
in the rubble.
1647
01:30:09,560 --> 01:30:12,160
But I am OK at going to the
school with you.
1648
01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:16,280
Well, I'll accompany what
appears to be our dear sister to
1649
01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:17,640
the school all.
Right.
1650
01:30:17,640 --> 01:30:21,200
You're a sister.
No, our sister, we're adopted.
1651
01:30:21,880 --> 01:30:25,520
You're adopted, mind you.
Yes, and you are too.
1652
01:30:25,960 --> 01:30:27,920
You're our brother.
Let him come to it in his own
1653
01:30:27,920 --> 01:30:31,720
time, Doctor.
I, I I cannot as a gentleman,
1654
01:30:32,200 --> 01:30:36,720
say that you, we are brother in
spirit, but not in physical
1655
01:30:36,720 --> 01:30:38,080
flesh.
My we're.
1656
01:30:38,080 --> 01:30:39,840
All part of the brotherhood of
man, you know.
1657
01:30:42,920 --> 01:30:44,200
I'm going to check out the
school.
1658
01:30:44,840 --> 01:30:48,120
OK, then I will accompany the
fine Madam.
1659
01:30:48,760 --> 01:30:52,400
Not splitting up a team.
OK, so the school, the old
1660
01:30:52,400 --> 01:30:55,080
school house, it's kind of hard
to notice.
1661
01:30:55,080 --> 01:30:57,520
It's sort of an unremarkable
disused building.
1662
01:30:57,720 --> 01:31:00,000
The only reason you know where
it is is because it was pointed
1663
01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:02,280
out to you.
It's just a tiny little
1664
01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:04,640
Victorian school.
It even has like separate
1665
01:31:04,640 --> 01:31:07,160
entrances for girls and boys.
But then when you get inside,
1666
01:31:07,160 --> 01:31:10,280
it's the sort of one big
classroom though, though there
1667
01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:13,040
is a small office attached.
As you approach, you find the
1668
01:31:13,080 --> 01:31:17,160
door is not locked.
The whole thing is very dusty.
1669
01:31:17,280 --> 01:31:19,720
It's almost like people just
disappeared.
1670
01:31:19,720 --> 01:31:22,440
It's like, you know, they talk
about like with Chernobyl, like
1671
01:31:22,440 --> 01:31:24,200
if you went around there, it
just looks like everyone
1672
01:31:24,200 --> 01:31:25,800
disappeared and left everything
there.
1673
01:31:25,960 --> 01:31:29,160
It's kind of like that.
There's a quadratic equation
1674
01:31:29,280 --> 01:31:32,520
written on the board.
There are like some notebooks
1675
01:31:32,520 --> 01:31:37,000
and stuff in the desks, but
there are cobwebs covering
1676
01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:40,360
everything.
There are weeds and Moss growing
1677
01:31:40,680 --> 01:31:42,680
through the flagstones on the
floor.
1678
01:31:42,880 --> 01:31:47,080
And the whole place, at least
for you, Doctor, it feels
1679
01:31:47,080 --> 01:31:50,560
familiar.
Ah yes, the old school house.
1680
01:31:50,800 --> 01:31:52,800
I probably learned some things
here all.
1681
01:31:53,120 --> 01:31:55,920
Right.
Actually, as you're looking, you
1682
01:31:55,920 --> 01:31:58,840
know which one of these desks
was your desk?
1683
01:31:59,360 --> 01:32:00,120
You remember.
Oh.
1684
01:32:00,760 --> 01:32:02,440
I better carve my initials in
there do.
1685
01:32:03,320 --> 01:32:05,400
You want to take a look.
Of course, yes.
1686
01:32:06,120 --> 01:32:11,240
You absolutely did carve your
first name, or at least somebody
1687
01:32:11,240 --> 01:32:15,880
carved that name in a childish
version of your handwriting. 3
1688
01:32:15,880 --> 01:32:17,840
point loss.
Oh.
1689
01:32:18,600 --> 01:32:21,400
Yeah, this is all you know.
This is sort of freaking you out
1690
01:32:21,400 --> 01:32:25,640
a little bit.
You were definitely here before.
1691
01:32:26,400 --> 01:32:28,040
That's not the right last
initial.
1692
01:32:28,600 --> 01:32:30,720
Yeah.
It's not the right last initial
1693
01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:36,160
or I mean it's AW wearing.
What would you like to do in
1694
01:32:36,160 --> 01:32:38,600
here?
Jones is going to take a look at
1695
01:32:38,600 --> 01:32:40,400
the teacher's desk.
OK.
1696
01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:44,840
Mostly there's just like a bunch
of exercise books that are
1697
01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:46,600
written there.
It seems like he was maybe in
1698
01:32:46,600 --> 01:32:49,520
the middle of grading, like,
children's essays.
1699
01:32:49,760 --> 01:32:51,760
And as you're going through it,
it seems like they're writing
1700
01:32:51,760 --> 01:32:55,360
about like, local folklore.
At least some of them seem to
1701
01:32:55,360 --> 01:32:57,880
have been writing about that.
And as you're going through it,
1702
01:32:57,920 --> 01:33:01,400
that seems to be what it is.
You would need to maybe have
1703
01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:04,840
some sort of ability to go
through a bunch of books and
1704
01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:08,840
like use a collection of books
to maybe get this information.
1705
01:33:09,280 --> 01:33:12,280
I'm gonna use a library use.
There it is.
1706
01:33:12,280 --> 01:33:16,560
Library use.
Yes, you start going through all
1707
01:33:16,560 --> 01:33:20,040
of them.
One of the essays catches your
1708
01:33:20,040 --> 01:33:25,800
attention because it seems to be
Well, I'm going to share that
1709
01:33:25,880 --> 01:33:30,120
with you right now.
Class I have a essay for
1710
01:33:30,120 --> 01:33:33,440
everyone to listen to.
Take your seats please.
1711
01:33:33,920 --> 01:33:37,960
Once Upon a time there was a
little girl who lived in
1712
01:33:37,960 --> 01:33:44,160
Manistee, and one day she found
a Gray slimming hand reaching
1713
01:33:44,160 --> 01:33:47,600
through the earth.
She did not know what to do.
1714
01:33:48,520 --> 01:33:51,360
What is this?
She asked, but her mommy and
1715
01:33:51,360 --> 01:33:54,720
daddy did not know.
The next day when she was
1716
01:33:54,720 --> 01:33:58,600
walking through the woods, she
saw a monster and it was all
1717
01:33:58,600 --> 01:34:01,080
wormy and slimy and smiled at
her.
1718
01:34:01,920 --> 01:34:06,200
The little girl went home, told
her mommy and daddy, but they
1719
01:34:06,200 --> 01:34:09,840
did not believe her.
Then wormy slimy monsters under
1720
01:34:09,840 --> 01:34:14,160
the earth came up, and that
night they ate the little girl
1721
01:34:14,160 --> 01:34:18,560
up and their mommy and daddy and
they tore the house up and ate
1722
01:34:18,560 --> 01:34:26,680
its bricks.
Not what I was expecting for a
1723
01:34:26,680 --> 01:34:29,200
child story.
Slightly scary.
1724
01:34:29,720 --> 01:34:32,960
I'm going to put this down and
kind of walk outside.
1725
01:34:33,920 --> 01:34:35,360
Is there anything else on the
paper?
1726
01:34:35,680 --> 01:34:38,640
Yeah, he just kind of puts the
the paper down right next to
1727
01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:40,600
Helen.
That might be some inspiration
1728
01:34:40,600 --> 01:34:41,960
for you.
Oh.
1729
01:34:43,320 --> 01:34:46,840
Yeah, the child has drawn a
little picture of a house with
1730
01:34:46,840 --> 01:34:49,480
somebody inside of it.
Helen, how would you describe
1731
01:34:49,480 --> 01:34:51,200
that thing that's coming towards
the house?
1732
01:34:52,040 --> 01:34:57,160
It's very basic, but it appears
almost Serpentine and it has two
1733
01:34:57,160 --> 01:34:59,880
arms with fingers that are way
too long.
1734
01:35:00,440 --> 01:35:04,640
Yeah, like a kind of monster.
Kind of a wormy monster.
1735
01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:07,000
Kind of a wormy monster.
Yeah, there's a little worm
1736
01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:09,600
monster.
Yeah, not a fan of that.
1737
01:35:10,320 --> 01:35:12,480
Wait, Helen, wouldn't you be a
fan of that?
1738
01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:19,400
Helen's having a rough day.
Yeah, I'd be more into this if
1739
01:35:20,440 --> 01:35:24,560
checks notes my whole life
hadn't been upended two hours
1740
01:35:24,560 --> 01:35:27,800
ago.
Because we're adopted.
1741
01:35:28,400 --> 01:35:33,560
Among you. 2 are adopted.
You say from outside as.
1742
01:35:33,680 --> 01:35:37,200
You say exactly outside.
We'll tell him when he's older.
1743
01:35:37,360 --> 01:35:40,040
By the way, Jonesy, when you
stepped outside, there is sort
1744
01:35:40,040 --> 01:35:42,240
of an angry looking farmer who
walks up.
1745
01:35:42,240 --> 01:35:45,000
Dude says boy, what are you
doing here?
1746
01:35:46,840 --> 01:35:51,520
I've was accompanied with my
friends to take a look at the
1747
01:35:51,520 --> 01:35:55,160
school and I'm going to use
flattery to calm down the
1748
01:35:55,160 --> 01:35:58,640
situation.
How are you flattering this
1749
01:35:58,800 --> 01:36:03,880
angry farmer?
You look quite in physical shape
1750
01:36:03,880 --> 01:36:06,160
my friend.
What have you been doing with
1751
01:36:06,160 --> 01:36:09,040
your life?
It looks you look fantastic,
1752
01:36:09,600 --> 01:36:11,920
like I'm just changing the
subject immediately.
1753
01:36:11,920 --> 01:36:14,200
I'm looking for my pig.
Oh, your pig.
1754
01:36:14,640 --> 01:36:17,080
Did you take my pig?
No.
1755
01:36:17,480 --> 01:36:20,000
Is your what?
What does your pig look like?
1756
01:36:20,520 --> 01:36:23,800
It's a pig.
Is it a prize pig?
1757
01:36:23,800 --> 01:36:27,240
Is it a fair pig?
Is it over ��100?
1758
01:36:28,720 --> 01:36:32,120
No, it's just a it's one of the
youngest pigs that we had.
1759
01:36:32,120 --> 01:36:35,680
It was a young, small pig.
I don't know if there's a pig
1760
01:36:35,680 --> 01:36:38,440
rustler around here.
You're not rustling pigs, are
1761
01:36:38,480 --> 01:36:43,200
you, You bum.
I I Sir, I am a hobo, not a bum,
1762
01:36:43,240 --> 01:36:46,880
and I don't rustle pigs.
Oh my God, did he just admit it?
1763
01:36:47,960 --> 01:36:51,160
Oh my God, he admit it.
Gentlemen.
1764
01:36:51,160 --> 01:36:53,560
Gentlemen.
Stability gain.
1765
01:36:56,160 --> 01:36:59,840
Fine, if you were to be stealing
pigs, you would have stolen more
1766
01:36:59,840 --> 01:37:02,840
than the smallest one.
I also don't see a pig around
1767
01:37:02,960 --> 01:37:06,800
you, you keep an eye out.
I guess what's the pig's name so
1768
01:37:06,800 --> 01:37:09,320
I can call its name?
It's a pig.
1769
01:37:09,320 --> 01:37:14,120
It doesn't have a name.
But, well, I've heard Sue Mary,
1770
01:37:14,120 --> 01:37:18,000
Mary Sue Sue, you know?
Sure, sure.
1771
01:37:18,040 --> 01:37:19,960
Yeah, whatever.
Just look for my pig.
1772
01:37:20,520 --> 01:37:22,920
OK, I will keep an eye out, my
friend.
1773
01:37:24,160 --> 01:37:25,960
And Jonesy pulls out a
handkerchief.
1774
01:37:26,880 --> 01:37:30,760
Oh sweet God.
Yeah, you're being accused of
1775
01:37:30,760 --> 01:37:35,280
crimes, Jonesy.
That was close.
1776
01:37:35,600 --> 01:37:38,160
Anyway, back inside the
schoolhouse, anything else you
1777
01:37:38,160 --> 01:37:40,600
want to look for?
I don't know how much is here,
1778
01:37:40,600 --> 01:37:44,240
but there's maybe some stuff.
The desk, His desk was checked,
1779
01:37:44,240 --> 01:37:46,480
right?
Oh yeah, I definitely want to
1780
01:37:46,480 --> 01:37:48,440
check that.
Does he have an office in here?
1781
01:37:48,440 --> 01:37:50,920
She mentioned An office.
I want to give that a look
1782
01:37:50,920 --> 01:37:53,520
through.
As you are going through the
1783
01:37:53,520 --> 01:37:58,120
office, you do find several of
these exercise books, children's
1784
01:37:58,120 --> 01:38:02,640
stuff that's been left there.
Again, they seem to all be
1785
01:38:02,640 --> 01:38:06,040
written about local folklore.
They must have been having to
1786
01:38:06,040 --> 01:38:08,800
like, research local folklore
and write some stuff about it.
1787
01:38:09,040 --> 01:38:12,120
And you see a lot of them seem
to have been writing about
1788
01:38:12,120 --> 01:38:15,040
Castle Rig's stone circle.
Not surprisingly, it's a, it's a
1789
01:38:15,040 --> 01:38:17,920
pretty recent spot.
It said it was like a place
1790
01:38:18,200 --> 01:38:22,320
frequented by witches who buried
people alive.
1791
01:38:22,520 --> 01:38:24,800
They did human sacrifice.
They would cut them and then
1792
01:38:24,800 --> 01:38:27,200
bury them alive.
That feels important.
1793
01:38:28,120 --> 01:38:30,080
Yes, is that?
Going to ring a bell?
1794
01:38:30,520 --> 01:38:34,280
But besides that, it does look
like maybe there were some
1795
01:38:34,280 --> 01:38:37,280
things that were taken away.
I know it was said that Jack
1796
01:38:37,280 --> 01:38:40,080
disappeared in the night, but
you could tell that like there's
1797
01:38:40,080 --> 01:38:43,080
one drawer that's empty that he
he might have taken stuff from
1798
01:38:43,840 --> 01:38:46,800
so.
Jonesy walks in and just goes.
1799
01:38:47,320 --> 01:38:49,720
Farmer just accused me of
stealing his pig.
1800
01:38:51,160 --> 01:38:53,000
Jonesy, you can't be stealing
people's pigs.
1801
01:38:53,520 --> 01:38:55,080
Do I look like I could steal a
pig?
1802
01:38:55,760 --> 01:38:57,400
Yeah, absolutely, if you set
your mind to it.
1803
01:38:58,320 --> 01:39:00,640
Thank you, it's actually quite
charming you.
1804
01:39:01,240 --> 01:39:02,520
Gotta believe in yourself,
Jonesy.
1805
01:39:03,440 --> 01:39:06,000
Thank you.
Well, I I'm not a thief.
1806
01:39:06,440 --> 01:39:08,600
Not a thief.
I'm a gentleman.
1807
01:39:10,960 --> 01:39:13,120
And can we can we can we leave?
Is this.
1808
01:39:13,320 --> 01:39:16,240
Yeah.
You guys need to go or I'm still
1809
01:39:16,240 --> 01:39:19,360
looking around.
Well, I just learned something
1810
01:39:19,360 --> 01:39:21,800
interesting.
Helen shares what she had least
1811
01:39:21,840 --> 01:39:23,600
recently learned.
That was interesting.
1812
01:39:25,480 --> 01:39:27,760
Yes.
Yeah.
1813
01:39:27,880 --> 01:39:29,920
The other thing, Helen, is as
you were looking, there were a
1814
01:39:29,920 --> 01:39:34,240
couple other books that talked
about Low Manesty, which was the
1815
01:39:34,240 --> 01:39:39,080
village that was there before.
Well, before we unpack all that,
1816
01:39:39,520 --> 01:39:41,400
we should probably get your
brother to a hospital.
1817
01:39:41,760 --> 01:39:46,240
Absolutely.
Assuming they can help him now
1818
01:39:46,240 --> 01:39:47,600
that I've learned what I've
learned.
1819
01:39:48,520 --> 01:39:50,000
Oh, it'll be fine.
They'll hook him up with some
1820
01:39:50,000 --> 01:39:51,400
heroin.
He'll be fine within the
1821
01:39:51,400 --> 01:39:54,720
fortnight.
So you go back to the inn.
1822
01:39:55,040 --> 01:39:57,960
He's still looking real shitty.
Jeffrey, have you been eating
1823
01:39:57,960 --> 01:39:59,560
your lollipop?
I had it.
1824
01:40:00,520 --> 01:40:04,960
I was delicious.
At least I remember they were
1825
01:40:04,960 --> 01:40:07,440
delicious.
Didn't really taste like much.
1826
01:40:08,280 --> 01:40:13,640
Oh, that's not a good sign.
Yeah, I are we going to go?
1827
01:40:14,600 --> 01:40:16,560
Yes, we're going to get you to
the hospital, Jeffrey.
1828
01:40:16,760 --> 01:40:18,240
All right.
Yeah, Get on my shoulders.
1829
01:40:19,960 --> 01:40:21,760
He sort of is able to walk a
little bit.
1830
01:40:21,760 --> 01:40:23,440
He's not going to jump on his
shoulders.
1831
01:40:23,600 --> 01:40:26,600
He is your Big Brother.
I was thinking firemans carry
1832
01:40:26,600 --> 01:40:28,480
but all of a sudden it became a
piggyback ride.
1833
01:40:28,960 --> 01:40:31,360
I don't think a piggyback rod is
going to work here.
1834
01:40:31,720 --> 01:40:33,040
He's still able to walk a
little.
1835
01:40:33,400 --> 01:40:35,600
So at the very least we can
support him.
1836
01:40:35,920 --> 01:40:40,200
Yeah, to the ferry.
Yeah, you do see that there are
1837
01:40:40,240 --> 01:40:43,480
in the inn as it's getting a
little later, a couple of people
1838
01:40:43,480 --> 01:40:46,280
are getting done with their work
a little early, and there are
1839
01:40:46,280 --> 01:40:50,840
people dancing as the radio is
playing static very loudly,
1840
01:40:51,080 --> 01:40:52,720
almost drowning out everything
else.
1841
01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:55,600
Yeah, more of that Coltrane.
Yeah, Can we get to the ferry?
1842
01:40:56,000 --> 01:40:59,480
I don't want to listen to this.
Yes, I am choosing to focus on
1843
01:40:59,480 --> 01:41:03,280
anything else as we keep moving.
So, Jeffrey, it turns out we
1844
01:41:03,280 --> 01:41:05,400
actually are adopted and these
are your siblings.
1845
01:41:05,800 --> 01:41:10,200
Oh, strange.
I well, we'll deal with that
1846
01:41:10,200 --> 01:41:10,880
later.
I guess.
1847
01:41:11,480 --> 01:41:14,080
I'm, I guess I'm Jeffrey.
Hello.
1848
01:41:14,920 --> 01:41:19,600
Hi, Helen.
Nice to meet you, He offers to
1849
01:41:19,600 --> 01:41:22,120
you to shake it, you know.
He offers his hand to shake.
1850
01:41:22,560 --> 01:41:27,680
Helen takes it and then quickly
moves to supporting, supporting
1851
01:41:27,680 --> 01:41:29,480
him on her shoulder.
Yeah, we can.
1852
01:41:29,680 --> 01:41:32,720
We can.
We can bond his siblings once
1853
01:41:33,120 --> 01:41:37,080
you're better.
Yeah, his hand is clammy and
1854
01:41:37,760 --> 01:41:41,640
yeah, and the skin feels almost
loose, like a glove.
1855
01:41:41,920 --> 01:41:45,920
Charming.
Tom Jones, no relation.
1856
01:41:46,040 --> 01:41:50,680
You 2 are adopted.
He's still processing it.
1857
01:41:51,280 --> 01:41:56,520
Okay, okay, you move towards the
fairy and it's full of people.
1858
01:41:56,520 --> 01:41:59,440
Actually, when it when it's
coming through, there must have
1859
01:41:59,440 --> 01:42:01,760
been something else going on in
one of the southern towns or
1860
01:42:01,760 --> 01:42:04,680
whatever.
But as it stops, you get kind of
1861
01:42:04,680 --> 01:42:08,440
a glare from the guy as you're
calling on a person who could
1862
01:42:08,440 --> 01:42:13,120
barely walk.
I don't want any sick people on
1863
01:42:13,120 --> 01:42:14,680
on the boat.
What are what are we doing here?
1864
01:42:15,160 --> 01:42:18,360
Oh, I will use some reassurance.
What he's got isn't catching
1865
01:42:18,360 --> 01:42:19,920
friends.
We just need to get him to a
1866
01:42:19,920 --> 01:42:23,120
hospital, get him looked after.
What are you, a doctor?
1867
01:42:23,120 --> 01:42:26,120
How do you know this?
Yes, I am, in fact, a doctor.
1868
01:42:26,120 --> 01:42:29,120
Doctor Michael Laws.
Oh, do you have like a card or
1869
01:42:29,120 --> 01:42:30,240
something?
Definitely.
1870
01:42:30,720 --> 01:42:35,040
OK.
Oh, OK, doctor, I guess I'm
1871
01:42:35,040 --> 01:42:38,160
sorry.
It's kind of full today.
1872
01:42:38,400 --> 01:42:42,400
I think you and your your
patient, but I'm sorry the other
1873
01:42:42,400 --> 01:42:43,680
two I don't think they could fit
on.
1874
01:42:43,800 --> 01:42:45,720
Well, that works for me, if it
works for them.
1875
01:42:45,720 --> 01:42:47,760
That's fine, we can check up at
the end.
1876
01:42:48,160 --> 01:42:51,840
We're we're staying here.
Wait.
1877
01:42:53,760 --> 01:42:58,160
I have found no signs of any of
my compatriots.
1878
01:42:59,160 --> 01:43:01,240
Excuse me.
There has to be some room.
1879
01:43:01,240 --> 01:43:04,360
Can I sit in in the storage box
or?
1880
01:43:05,480 --> 01:43:09,000
Dad, just get off this island.
This is not you're not on an
1881
01:43:09,040 --> 01:43:10,720
island.
You could take the road.
1882
01:43:10,720 --> 01:43:14,600
Back I am so bad with the land
geography.
1883
01:43:14,600 --> 01:43:17,480
Sorry.
OK, How far is the road?
1884
01:43:18,000 --> 01:43:20,160
What am IA map?
Get out of here you bum.
1885
01:43:20,960 --> 01:43:23,280
I'm a gentleman.
All right?
1886
01:43:23,400 --> 01:43:25,640
Fine.
Stay.
1887
01:43:25,920 --> 01:43:29,200
I mean you could try to make
like a interpersonal like spend
1888
01:43:29,560 --> 01:43:31,960
to try to get onto the boat
here, but they are full.
1889
01:43:32,480 --> 01:43:35,760
I used all of my good stuff and
I'm not going to intimidate
1890
01:43:35,760 --> 01:43:38,040
someone.
Oh, wait, wait, wait.
1891
01:43:38,040 --> 01:43:41,040
Hold on, hold on.
I can do a scuffle and I'll
1892
01:43:41,040 --> 01:43:45,120
drive the boat.
OK, OK, I, I have one.
1893
01:43:45,120 --> 01:43:47,480
I'm gonna bargain.
So I'm gonna pull out the pills
1894
01:43:47,480 --> 01:43:52,600
that I pilfered and be like, I
do have some high quality
1895
01:43:52,600 --> 01:43:55,440
medicine.
If you can allow me and my
1896
01:43:55,800 --> 01:43:57,720
friend here, Helen, on to the
ship.
1897
01:43:58,080 --> 01:44:01,880
We could fit one more person on
I'm sorry lady it we are just at
1898
01:44:01,880 --> 01:44:04,320
the we're stuffed in like
sardines.
1899
01:44:05,360 --> 01:44:08,280
If you would like, you could
spend a point of bargain and all
1900
01:44:08,280 --> 01:44:10,120
three of you can go, or I guess
all four of you.
1901
01:44:10,280 --> 01:44:12,160
Yeah, I'm gonna spend a whole
point of bargain.
1902
01:44:12,200 --> 01:44:15,960
OK, OK, Actually I'm gonna spend
2 because it'd be one for me and
1903
01:44:15,960 --> 01:44:17,880
then one for Helen.
I guess so, Yeah.
1904
01:44:17,880 --> 01:44:19,800
So you're gonna use up the your
bargain.
1905
01:44:19,800 --> 01:44:22,760
OK, Well, try to spookily split
up the party.
1906
01:44:22,760 --> 01:44:24,800
Is is not happening yet.
That's cool.
1907
01:44:24,800 --> 01:44:26,360
Whatever.
Mission failed.
1908
01:44:26,360 --> 01:44:30,320
You'll get him next time.
Should I have spent points on
1909
01:44:30,320 --> 01:44:34,160
reassurance previously?
No, no, generally you just can
1910
01:44:34,160 --> 01:44:36,680
do it because you have it.
If you're trying to do something
1911
01:44:36,680 --> 01:44:39,560
in like hard, you have to spend
a point.
1912
01:44:39,840 --> 01:44:44,160
OK, you are really packed in
here on the boat, but you do
1913
01:44:44,160 --> 01:44:48,640
eventually make it back to town,
the larger town of Kenswick
1914
01:44:48,640 --> 01:44:53,280
anyway, and you bring him over
to the hospital and he is
1915
01:44:53,280 --> 01:44:55,200
admitted.
What do you do in the what do
1916
01:44:55,200 --> 01:44:57,560
you try to do in the hospital?
How do you approach this?
1917
01:44:58,080 --> 01:45:01,920
I guess we go to emergency or
whatever the analogue is.
1918
01:45:02,320 --> 01:45:06,760
Yeah, as as you bring him in,
they're sort of like, Oh yeah,
1919
01:45:06,760 --> 01:45:09,080
sure.
Come at.
1920
01:45:09,080 --> 01:45:14,400
You're met by a doctor Rossdale
who you actually, because you
1921
01:45:14,400 --> 01:45:16,400
are a doctor.
You have heard of him before.
1922
01:45:16,440 --> 01:45:21,080
He's an older guy, but he's, you
know, this guy knows his his
1923
01:45:21,080 --> 01:45:22,600
stuff.
You may have read a paper that
1924
01:45:22,600 --> 01:45:24,960
he wrote one time.
He's there's nothing anything
1925
01:45:24,960 --> 01:45:27,040
extraordinary about him.
But he's also, he's like a good
1926
01:45:27,040 --> 01:45:28,800
doctor.
He's like a very good doctor.
1927
01:45:29,280 --> 01:45:31,240
He says, oh, OK, I'll take care
of your brother.
1928
01:45:31,240 --> 01:45:32,120
Don't work.
Don't work.
1929
01:45:32,800 --> 01:45:36,880
I'd say he's in capable hands.
He's got a fever of 10.
1930
01:45:37,960 --> 01:45:40,960
What?
He's he's pretty cold right now.
1931
01:45:40,960 --> 01:45:43,480
Oh.
OK, I wouldn't hold that A yes.
1932
01:45:43,600 --> 01:45:47,280
OK, nurse, get him in there.
And he is taken to a room.
1933
01:45:47,360 --> 01:45:51,360
He's sort of groaning a little
bit, but he he says he's going
1934
01:45:51,360 --> 01:45:54,560
to, you know, take a look at it
and he says are, are there any
1935
01:45:54,560 --> 01:45:56,640
other symptoms?
What's what's wrong with them?
1936
01:45:57,480 --> 01:45:59,240
Real loose skin and no
heartbeat.
1937
01:45:59,920 --> 01:46:03,000
What?
I know that sounds insane, but I
1938
01:46:03,000 --> 01:46:06,880
can attest to that.
The man who as you can see is
1939
01:46:06,880 --> 01:46:10,400
moving and talking and breathing
does not have a pulse.
1940
01:46:11,040 --> 01:46:14,360
Good luck.
Absolutely not.
1941
01:46:14,360 --> 01:46:17,440
You must be mistaken I that that
can't be correct.
1942
01:46:17,920 --> 01:46:19,560
Well, I always value a second
opinion.
1943
01:46:19,960 --> 01:46:21,360
OK.
Are there any?
1944
01:46:21,880 --> 01:46:24,240
Is there anything you'd like to
say to him to maybe convince him
1945
01:46:24,240 --> 01:46:27,760
to take that seriously?
Check him yourself.
1946
01:46:27,800 --> 01:46:30,720
Yes, I I guess I'll, I'll, I'll
check myself.
1947
01:46:31,960 --> 01:46:34,480
Oh God.
Something wrong with him?
1948
01:46:34,720 --> 01:46:35,560
Something.
Definitely.
1949
01:46:35,560 --> 01:46:38,960
OK, well, I'll try to figure
this out.
1950
01:46:40,440 --> 01:46:43,040
You might have some sort of
records about this.
1951
01:46:44,920 --> 01:46:48,440
And he he spent some time
looking at him, examining him
1952
01:46:48,440 --> 01:46:54,120
and says, my God, it's it's just
like in the Eddie trails off and
1953
01:46:54,120 --> 01:46:56,280
he actually runs out of the
room.
1954
01:46:56,840 --> 01:47:01,000
Are doctors supposed to do that?
I've never seen one run out the
1955
01:47:01,000 --> 01:47:03,280
room.
We we should, we should follow
1956
01:47:03,280 --> 01:47:05,600
him, yeah.
Good idea.
1957
01:47:06,640 --> 01:47:09,640
You see him run to like an
office and that you see him like
1958
01:47:09,720 --> 01:47:13,520
looking through his bookshelf
and he pulls out an old book and
1959
01:47:13,520 --> 01:47:16,280
then runs back to the oh, no, it
it, it's right here.
1960
01:47:16,720 --> 01:47:20,120
It's right here, Doctor.
Actually, have you introduced
1961
01:47:20,120 --> 01:47:22,600
yourself as a doctor?
Doctor Laws.
1962
01:47:23,360 --> 01:47:24,960
I glossed over it, but I think I
would have.
1963
01:47:25,280 --> 01:47:28,640
OK, Doctor, Mr. Laws.
Or I guess Doctor Laws.
1964
01:47:28,640 --> 01:47:31,720
He wouldn't say Mr. There is
something that I've seen before,
1965
01:47:31,720 --> 01:47:34,880
something like this in the old
hospital archives.
1966
01:47:35,640 --> 01:47:39,120
There's one other case that had
symptoms similar to this.
1967
01:47:39,360 --> 01:47:41,520
I thought it was so strange.
I was going through the hospital
1968
01:47:41,520 --> 01:47:43,440
history and nobody ever figured
out what happened to her.
1969
01:47:44,040 --> 01:47:49,640
I have an inkling who it was.
A woman named Betty came in
1970
01:47:49,680 --> 01:47:55,560
goodness, it must have been in
the 181816 it says here 1816.
1971
01:47:56,000 --> 01:47:59,720
A woman named Betty came in, had
the same symptoms and nobody
1972
01:47:59,720 --> 01:48:02,760
knew what to do.
She became rather agitated.
1973
01:48:03,920 --> 01:48:05,840
Well hopefully that doesn't
happen to my brother.
1974
01:48:05,840 --> 01:48:08,080
He's generally a level headed
sort.
1975
01:48:08,480 --> 01:48:11,600
Yeah, well, Betty was apparently
a level headed sort too, but
1976
01:48:11,600 --> 01:48:15,880
then she she started screaming
and and fighting back against
1977
01:48:15,880 --> 01:48:18,000
the folks here and then
eventually jumped out the third
1978
01:48:18,000 --> 01:48:21,120
story window.
Nobody ever saw what happened to
1979
01:48:21,120 --> 01:48:22,880
her after that.
They couldn't find a body.
1980
01:48:23,600 --> 01:48:24,760
Yeah.
I think we can probably guess
1981
01:48:24,760 --> 01:48:26,280
though.
Yes, though, of course, of
1982
01:48:26,280 --> 01:48:28,440
course, But it's there.
We weren't able to do an
1983
01:48:28,480 --> 01:48:32,320
autopsy, is the thing.
Of course, I hope that we won't
1984
01:48:32,320 --> 01:48:35,240
need to perform an autopsy on
your brother, but this is
1985
01:48:35,320 --> 01:48:36,760
fascinating.
We'll need to take a look at
1986
01:48:36,840 --> 01:48:39,560
this, figure out what happened.
As you're looking at the book,
1987
01:48:39,560 --> 01:48:44,440
you see that the records are for
a Betty Waring from 1816.
1988
01:48:44,760 --> 01:48:46,600
So.
So not Jack then Betty.
1989
01:48:46,920 --> 01:48:51,560
Curious, Sir, and curious Sir.
Yeah, well, this was almost 100
1990
01:48:51,560 --> 01:48:53,920
years ago, actually more than
100 years ago.
1991
01:48:55,080 --> 01:49:00,520
This is 1816.
Right now it's 1935 so I doubt
1992
01:49:00,520 --> 01:49:03,360
this could have been Jack.
Oh, right.
1993
01:49:05,040 --> 01:49:09,960
Unless Jack is very very old and
also I guess he would have to be
1994
01:49:09,960 --> 01:49:14,360
a time traveller if he died in
1816 and then bothered you like.
1995
01:49:14,920 --> 01:49:17,160
Lovecraft.
These are all possibilities.
1996
01:49:18,040 --> 01:49:20,960
These these this could be
possibilities, yes, yeah.
1997
01:49:21,000 --> 01:49:25,160
You guys were all born around
like 19119 O 4 or so, so it's
1998
01:49:25,160 --> 01:49:27,000
night time.
What would you guys like to do
1999
01:49:27,000 --> 01:49:29,400
this eve?
Also, as you are going, as
2000
01:49:29,400 --> 01:49:32,880
you're leaving the hospital,
once again you are hearing a
2001
01:49:32,880 --> 01:49:35,440
radio and the static is getting
louder and.
2002
01:49:37,840 --> 01:49:39,480
Louder.
Who has the radio on?
2003
01:49:39,760 --> 01:49:44,360
It's so loud.
Sorry, the the people like to to
2004
01:49:44,360 --> 01:49:48,120
listen to some music.
They're they're playing some
2005
01:49:48,120 --> 01:49:50,680
classical music that helps calm
folks down.
2006
01:49:52,120 --> 01:49:56,600
What, like in the outside you
can hear outside the hospital,
2007
01:49:56,600 --> 01:49:58,680
We're walking out, we're
outside, right?
2008
01:49:59,600 --> 01:50:02,000
Yeah, no, but there's like
radios outside the hospital as
2009
01:50:02,000 --> 01:50:03,520
well, but yeah.
Man.
2010
01:50:03,840 --> 01:50:07,400
I should note that every single
time they're describing this as
2011
01:50:07,440 --> 01:50:10,120
music and you guys are not
hearing.
2012
01:50:10,640 --> 01:50:15,120
Yeah, no, trust me, that fact
has my full attention.
2013
01:50:16,880 --> 01:50:19,320
You know, it's been a strange
day, but I think I'm finally
2014
01:50:19,320 --> 01:50:24,000
starting to understand music.
What is wrong with you?
2015
01:50:29,320 --> 01:50:33,320
I should note just a little bit
about the static that you keep
2016
01:50:33,320 --> 01:50:35,600
hearing.
Do either, do any of you guys
2017
01:50:35,600 --> 01:50:40,960
have physics?
One point in physics, OK, this
2018
01:50:40,960 --> 01:50:43,840
is sort of like maybe what's
happening is somebody has like a
2019
01:50:43,840 --> 01:50:48,840
transmitter that's like shooting
out white noise, and that would
2020
01:50:48,840 --> 01:50:51,680
sort of drown out all the other
radio signals and make it so
2021
01:50:51,680 --> 01:50:54,240
that you can only hear static
instead of the actual radio.
2022
01:50:54,640 --> 01:51:00,760
But that doesn't really explain
why only a few people can hear
2023
01:51:00,760 --> 01:51:03,120
the static and other people seem
to hear them.
2024
01:51:04,800 --> 01:51:07,000
I've also got 2IN languages if
that's relevant.
2025
01:51:09,160 --> 01:51:13,200
Not really.
Again, as you, I mean, do you
2026
01:51:13,200 --> 01:51:15,440
want to try to listen really
closely to it to try to see if
2027
01:51:15,440 --> 01:51:17,760
you can understand the language?
Definitely.
2028
01:51:18,600 --> 01:51:19,960
OK, that sounds right up my
alley.
2029
01:51:20,400 --> 01:51:25,360
Yeah, again, you just hear
whisperings here and there and
2030
01:51:25,360 --> 01:51:31,400
then at one point you are
certain that the voice says
2031
01:51:31,920 --> 01:51:39,240
Michael.
It's time, Michael and you hear
2032
01:51:39,240 --> 01:51:42,440
drumming about.
Well, I hope my brother's all
2033
01:51:42,440 --> 01:51:43,720
right.
I think I'll need him later.
2034
01:51:43,720 --> 01:51:47,120
Oh.
God, by the way, definitely
2035
01:51:47,120 --> 01:51:53,040
hearing your name in the static
is going to be a three-point
2036
01:51:53,040 --> 01:51:56,160
possible split plus.
All right.
2037
01:51:56,160 --> 01:51:58,040
I will spend a point this time,
OK?
2038
01:51:58,680 --> 01:52:00,240
Nice.
Nice.
2039
01:52:00,240 --> 01:52:03,320
OK, you don't fail.
This all seems above board.
2040
01:52:04,840 --> 01:52:10,120
I mean, to be clear, you know
it's not above board when you're
2041
01:52:10,200 --> 01:52:11,760
you're making these checks
successfully.
2042
01:52:11,760 --> 01:52:14,040
Does that mean that you are
foolish?
2043
01:52:14,280 --> 01:52:17,560
It just means that you are
trying to make it through here.
2044
01:52:18,680 --> 01:52:21,120
What is your stability at then?
Did you spend a point?
2045
01:52:22,160 --> 01:52:26,040
Oh right, so that puts it in 0.
OK, yes, you are shaken.
2046
01:52:26,160 --> 01:52:30,960
You are no longer able to spend
ability points for investigative
2047
01:52:30,960 --> 01:52:33,720
skills.
You can only just use them, so
2048
01:52:33,720 --> 01:52:36,320
you can't get the greater
successes and all of your
2049
01:52:36,320 --> 01:52:39,560
difficulties are going up by 1.
All right.
2050
01:52:39,800 --> 01:52:44,080
If you would like to use
investigative abilities, you'll
2051
01:52:44,080 --> 01:52:46,000
be able to make a stability
test.
2052
01:52:46,440 --> 01:52:48,680
Like if you want to actually
spend, you'll, you'll have to
2053
01:52:48,680 --> 01:52:52,480
make a test.
Also, you start checking your
2054
01:52:52,480 --> 01:52:56,600
own pulse.
You just feel the desire, just a
2055
01:52:56,600 --> 01:52:59,920
little bit of a compulsion to
start checking your pulse and
2056
01:52:59,920 --> 01:53:01,680
maybe the pulse of people around
you.
2057
01:53:02,320 --> 01:53:07,520
Hey, Jonesy, come here.
How can I help you, doctor?
2058
01:53:08,840 --> 01:53:10,520
And just hold still for a
second, I'm going to check
2059
01:53:10,520 --> 01:53:11,880
something.
OK.
2060
01:53:12,760 --> 01:53:16,320
His pulse seems to be beating.
All right, everything seems OK
2061
01:53:16,320 --> 01:53:17,040
here.
Hey, Helen.
2062
01:53:18,640 --> 01:53:20,400
Why do you need to check my
pulse?
2063
01:53:22,120 --> 01:53:25,760
The doctor, just in case, you
know, these things can be
2064
01:53:25,760 --> 01:53:26,720
contagious.
I don't know.
2065
01:53:26,720 --> 01:53:28,440
It's it's a pretty mysterious
illness.
2066
01:53:29,080 --> 01:53:35,840
She does offer her arm.
Her pulse seems weak and slow,
2067
01:53:35,840 --> 01:53:38,880
but it is still there.
Oh.
2068
01:53:39,400 --> 01:53:42,320
I'll give a look like could be
better, Helen.
2069
01:53:43,000 --> 01:53:45,520
There, there's a third person
you need to check their doctor.
2070
01:53:46,320 --> 01:53:48,360
Well, well, no, I can't check my
own pulse.
2071
01:53:48,360 --> 01:53:50,200
That's that's physically
impossible.
2072
01:53:50,200 --> 01:53:51,800
They've tried.
What?
2073
01:53:54,440 --> 01:53:57,360
Doctor, may I check your pulse?
Oh absolutely.
2074
01:53:57,600 --> 01:53:59,040
Only way to do it.
Have someone else do it.
2075
01:54:02,560 --> 01:54:06,280
Yeah, I just placed my fingers
on his wrist.
2076
01:54:07,280 --> 01:54:11,520
For just a moment it seems like
he doesn't have a pulse.
2077
01:54:12,360 --> 01:54:15,000
Oh, but that it starts, it's
very slow.
2078
01:54:16,000 --> 01:54:21,080
So how am I doing?
Your pulse is unusually slow.
2079
01:54:22,720 --> 01:54:25,760
May have jumped the gun when I
told that ferryman that that
2080
01:54:25,760 --> 01:54:29,160
wasn't catching.
Today has been a very eventful
2081
01:54:29,160 --> 01:54:35,240
day for all of us.
How about we just get one drink,
2082
01:54:36,000 --> 01:54:39,480
process everything that's
happened, and then get some
2083
01:54:39,480 --> 01:54:41,440
sleep?
I like that plan.
2084
01:54:42,240 --> 01:54:45,840
I like most of that plan
processing what's happening and
2085
01:54:45,840 --> 01:54:48,720
take it and leave it.
I feel that.
2086
01:54:52,360 --> 01:54:54,600
Thanks for listening to our
remastered first episode.
2087
01:54:54,800 --> 01:54:56,760
Danielle was our GM for Trail of
Cthulhu.
2088
01:54:56,960 --> 01:54:59,920
Dominic played Jonesy and also
originally edited the episode.
2089
01:55:00,400 --> 01:55:03,040
Nathan played Helen and Russell
played Doctor Laws and did the
2090
01:55:03,040 --> 01:55:05,280
remaster.
Daniel's Dread Tail's cover art
2091
01:55:05,280 --> 01:55:08,800
is by Trinity, the T tab Witch.
Our main theme is by Claire LW
2092
01:55:08,800 --> 01:55:11,120
on SoundCloud.
You'll also hear music from
2093
01:55:11,120 --> 01:55:14,440
Isaiah Brighton at the top and
some snippets of random jazz by
2094
01:55:14,440 --> 01:55:16,360
Imagined Dragon.
On pics of it.
2095
01:55:17,000 --> 01:55:18,640
Any other music you heard was by
me.
2096
01:55:19,120 --> 01:55:21,800
We're all learning as we go
here, and I wanted to update our
2097
01:55:21,800 --> 01:55:23,920
first episode.
The first episode a lot of
2098
01:55:23,920 --> 01:55:26,320
people will hear from the show
to reflect what's been learned.
2099
01:55:26,920 --> 01:55:29,880
For instance, I no longer use
push to talk whenever we record.
2100
01:55:30,160 --> 01:55:31,440
That's what the clicking sound
was.
2101
01:55:31,600 --> 01:55:34,040
I know I missed some.
Anyway, if you want to hear the
2102
01:55:34,040 --> 01:55:36,040
whole learning curve, we welcome
you to do so.
2103
01:55:36,240 --> 01:55:38,960
We had a lot of fun making every
episode and we hope you enjoy.
2104
01:55:39,360 --> 01:55:41,680
If you'd rather jump ahead to
where it started to become more
2105
01:55:41,680 --> 01:55:45,200
polished, It's the End of the
World is a personal favorite.
2106
01:55:45,680 --> 01:55:48,360
Again, thanks for listening and
until next time, this is the
2107
01:55:48,360 --> 01:55:51,320
first episode and it will always
have been the first episode.
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:04,320
Daniel's Dread Tales is a show
for grown-ups.
2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:07,960
It may contain adult language
and adult themes.
3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,720
Please check the episode
description for content one.
4
00:00:20,300 --> 00:00:24,540
Hey everybody, it's me, Daniel.
These are my dreads.
5
00:00:25,180 --> 00:00:27,300
I'm Gabriel Fernandez, I'm the
host of the show.
6
00:00:28,980 --> 00:00:33,540
Thanks for checking us out.
This is our first episode at our
7
00:00:33,660 --> 00:00:37,720
computer, and I just want to
give you a little bit of a
8
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:41,800
historical note.
This is not actually the first
9
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:47,600
episode that we put in.
This is the same thing, but the
10
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:52,760
episode we put out, it was fine.
But we've learned a lot about
11
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:57,080
producing podcasts since then.
We wanted to make sure that the
12
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:02,120
first thing you hear is not
traffic.
13
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:07,400
Yeah, we can say it.
So please enjoy this remastered
14
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,320
version of the first episode of
our show.
15
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,960
Hope you enjoy it and hope you
enjoy the rest of the show.
16
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:21,840
Thanks.
Bye.
17
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:29,960
All right, so welcome everyone
to Daniel's Thread Tales, our
18
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,520
first episode here.
This evening we're going to be
19
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,720
playing Trail of Cthulhu.
Specifically, we're going to be
20
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,520
playing a version of the
adventure The Dance in the Blood
21
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,520
by Graham Wolmsley.
It's a pretty great little
22
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:50,080
adventure, I think.
And let us introduce you to our
23
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:54,720
characters this evening going
around Russell, Tell tell us
24
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:56,000
about yourself and your
character.
25
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,360
Hello, I'm Russell and I'll be
playing Doctor Michael Laws.
26
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,280
He's the Doctor.
Is there anything we should know
27
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,440
about Doctor Laws?
Anything special we should know
28
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:05,720
about him?
What do you think the most
29
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,360
interesting thing about Doctor
Laws?
30
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,120
Good question.
My love for humanity extends to
31
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,360
those around me, like my brother
and my wife.
32
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,600
I haven't been entirely
faithful, but it still counts.
33
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:22,120
OK, that's you love her.
You just haven't always been
34
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,080
faithful to her.
You know what happened?
35
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:25,600
All right, Nathan, how about
you?
36
00:02:26,920 --> 00:02:30,120
Hi, I'm Nathan.
He him pronouns I and I am
37
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,240
playing Helen Long, an artist.
What's something interesting we
38
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:38,160
should know about Helen?
Well, at the moment she's bored
39
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:43,000
out of her God damn mind and to
inspire her absurdist, her
40
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,640
surreal artwork, she needs
something dark and twisted and
41
00:02:47,640 --> 00:02:50,280
exciting.
And I, I get the feeling that
42
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,240
she's going to regret that.
But you know, we'll see how it
43
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,040
goes.
Last but not least, is Dominic.
44
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:01,600
Hello, I'm Dominic.
I'm playing Tom Jones.
45
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:06,200
Jonesy is what you can call me.
I am a gentleman extraordinaire,
46
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:11,120
one of the nicest, most British
people you can possibly meet.
47
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:19,920
Even though my English it's not
that great, but I will gladly
48
00:03:19,920 --> 00:03:23,400
take any drink that you offer me
and I will gladly pay you back
49
00:03:23,640 --> 00:03:26,840
when I can because that's the
most gentleman thing to do.
50
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,320
What would you say your
profession is?
51
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:35,920
Jonesy is a gentleman.
I yes, I am a gentleman of the
52
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:40,000
great small town that I'm from.
Everyone knows my name.
53
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:45,400
I have great character,
especially among those of the
54
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,440
police, but yeah.
'Cause I'm looking at your sheet
55
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,400
and it does say hobo on here.
I'm just.
56
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:52,880
I just wanted to double check
that I.
57
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:56,160
I'm a gentleman and kind of a
scholar.
58
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:01,800
Hobo is just a trait or just a
name for someone that travels
59
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,240
around.
Exactly.
60
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:04,840
You're, you're a, you're a
travelling man.
61
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:11,040
Exactly.
It's a certain kind of scholarly
62
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,280
air, you know, a very specific
one.
63
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,680
I should note that you are not
the only hobo in the world.
64
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:23,640
The year is 1935 and we are in
in an area of England known as
65
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:28,560
the Lake District, in a small
little village called.
66
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,440
Keswick.
Yes, we're in the small little
67
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,840
village called Keswick and
you've all ended up there for
68
00:04:34,840 --> 00:04:38,480
various reasons and I think
we're going to get started.
69
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:43,640
Right now it is evening and
you're all at the inn here in
70
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,720
Keswick.
It's pretty normal evening.
71
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,760
You all have gotten done with
whatever you were doing during
72
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,600
the day and what do you think
you're doing when we're you're
73
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,600
sort of wrapping things up for
the evening.
74
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,240
I should note there is a lovely
little bar at the Hood.
75
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,960
Well, I'll head down to the bar
for a spot of Branda.
76
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,800
Yes, Brander, it's like Brandy,
but harder.
77
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,400
It's harder Brandy, yes.
So at the Blackstone where you
78
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,560
are, they do have a bar.
It's, it's a pretty nice place
79
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,240
and it's overlooking Keswick's
Market Square.
80
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:23,040
This is a small town, but it's
not a nothing town.
81
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,960
It's got like a pencil factory,
you know, very exciting stuff.
82
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,400
There is a hospital, there's a
library.
83
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,880
It's not like a little village,
but it's still not a
84
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,280
particularly exciting place.
This is, you know, no one's
85
00:05:34,280 --> 00:05:38,360
going to confuse this for
London, but there are not a ton
86
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,320
of people in the bar when you're
going down there.
87
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,080
There's like 6 or 7 people.
They're all sort of sitting at
88
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,920
tables chatting with each other.
And there is one gentleman
89
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,680
standing behind the bar at the
barkeep, and you see that it
90
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,080
looks like what he's doing is
reading a book right now.
91
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,000
Barkeep the spot of your finders
Brender.
92
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,000
He looks up from the book with
disdain in his eyes and says,
93
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,720
what Brander?
I misspoke and I'm sticking to
94
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,520
it.
Brandy, then.
95
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:13,440
Well, if that's what you've got.
OK, yes, any particular
96
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,160
whatever.
And he grabs something and
97
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,360
starts pouring it.
This place is, you'd say it's
98
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,560
very quaint.
There's a lot of decorations on
99
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,800
the wall.
There seems to be photos of
100
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,120
people from the village and
whatnot.
101
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,760
There's photos all over the
place.
102
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,440
There's a couple of like, I
don't know if you'd call the
103
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,560
artifacts or something, but
there's like old stuff on the
104
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,200
wall as well.
Like, oh look, here's like an
105
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:38,600
old farm pick or something.
It's almost like a modern day
106
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,600
Fridays, just with a bunch of
goofy stuff on the wall.
107
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,720
Does Fridays have that?
I guess that's more of an
108
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,320
Applebee's thing.
Regardless, do you?
109
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,320
There's just bunch of pictures
on the wall and.
110
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,080
And some other random stuff.
Yeah.
111
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,000
Pours your drink and offers it
to you.
112
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,560
And would you like to set up tab
or you want to pay right now?
113
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,440
I'll pay now, I don't drink that
heavily.
114
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,880
You can make the deal.
What is your credit rating?
115
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,200
Or you have a four credit
rating.
116
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,160
OK, you can afford to buy
something right now.
117
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,120
It's not going to affect your
your personal finances or
118
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,600
anything here.
OK, so you're just sort of
119
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,360
drinking at the bar.
What are you doing as you're
120
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,080
drinking?
Anything in particular?
121
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:17,800
Oh, definitely.
Looking around at the other
122
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,320
patrons, I believe I'm just sort
of visiting this place.
123
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:23,960
Yeah, you're just sort of
visiting.
124
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,240
You're on a you're on a little
vacation.
125
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,800
Yeah, so well, people watch.
Yeah, do it.
126
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,520
Some people watching.
All right, well, let's look at
127
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,400
some of the other people you
might see.
128
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:34,600
Jonesy.
What?
129
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,960
What do you think you're doing?
So Jonesy just walks into the
130
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:44,400
bar with his bowler cap, his
nice fanciest coat, and he's
131
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,760
got, you know, dress pants that
look they've seen better days,
132
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,640
but they're in good, goodish
quality.
133
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:58,080
And he walks in with a cane in
hand, twirling, and he points
134
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:02,880
towards the barkeep and he winks
and goes, ah, it's good to see
135
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,960
you again, friend.
What can you get me today?
136
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,920
I hope it's a gin and tonic.
And he puts on his biggest
137
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,360
smile.
And how are you today?
138
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,440
How's everything going?
He sort of sighs and looks up at
139
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,120
you and says are you going to be
able to pay?
140
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:29,000
You know me, I am a man of great
quality, great esteem and great
141
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,360
way of pain.
And Jonesy kind of looks around
142
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,720
and goes, ah yes, you.
And he points towards the the
143
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,400
doctor and he goes, ah, excuse
me, what is your name?
144
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,640
Doctor Michael Laws, pleasure to
meet you.
145
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,720
Laws, it is a great honor to
meet you.
146
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:49,360
My name is Tom Jones.
You may call me Jonesy.
147
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:55,040
As you can tell I am a in a
pinch but I can glad you pay you
148
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,280
back.
If you just give me a gin and
149
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,800
tonic I will gladly pay you
back.
150
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,120
Not today, but maybe tomorrow.
Well, that sounds like fantastic
151
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:05,920
deal.
Here you go.
152
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,760
You see that the barkeeper
during this conversation has
153
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,960
pulled up his book.
He's reading Murder on the
154
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,920
Orient Express and is ignoring
you guys.
155
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:18,280
That is an excellent book.
Murder on the Orient.
156
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,800
Positively good book.
As you can tell.
157
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,360
I have paid the drink.
Gin and tonic please.
158
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,320
He sighs, pours you a gin and
tonic.
159
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:30,960
He slides it across at the bar
for you.
160
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,240
What are and what are you doing
here besides drinking?
161
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:39,320
Jones, he's here, he's looking
for a little bit of trouble.
162
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,200
He's looking for trouble so he
can report it to the police
163
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:47,880
'cause he's, that is his duty as
a great and grand citizen of
164
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,320
this English country.
You're a hobo who's friends with
165
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,760
the police.
Oh yes, absolutely.
166
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,400
I talk to them all the time.
I report all the gums and goings
167
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,880
of the town and if there's any
vagrants, some people of ill
168
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,600
repute I greatly report to the
police.
169
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:11,040
Of course, of course.
And finally, Helen, I think
170
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,120
maybe you're the last one to
arrive, or maybe you've been
171
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,360
here all along.
What are you doing this evening?
172
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,200
She's she's at the bar drinking
mostly.
173
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,760
She's here because, well, since
she's so bored, you know,
174
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,160
alcohol might help.
And if a bar brawl breaks out,
175
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,080
that would really help.
Like maybe if something really
176
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,600
violent happens, she could maybe
get some artistic inspiration
177
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,360
from that.
So she's kind of just looking
178
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:40,200
around while getting a little
deep in her cups.
179
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,720
Got it.
All right.
180
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,880
Well, Helen, do you have, do you
have the photography skill?
181
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:50,880
Yes.
You do have the photography
182
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,760
skill, all right, So you're sort
of looking around as well,
183
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,080
trying to get a feel for things.
It doesn't look like any fights
184
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,920
are breaking out.
There's this very loud gentleman
185
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,680
who's just come in the bar and
is hitting up the doctor at the
186
00:11:01,680 --> 00:11:03,960
bar to get itself a drink.
But you're sort of looking
187
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,600
around, examining everything.
What catches your eye is one of
188
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,080
the photos on the wall is kind
of close to you and you look
189
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:14,960
over at it and it's weird.
At first it seems like just one
190
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:16,640
of the other photos around the
bar.
191
00:11:16,680 --> 00:11:20,920
It's a picture of what looks
like a small family.
192
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:26,360
There's a man and presumably his
wife, and you see four young
193
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,800
children with them.
And there's some names written
194
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,480
under the there.
But there's something weird as
195
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,520
you're looking at it.
There's one young girl and the
196
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,160
name Helen is written underneath
this small child.
197
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:43,560
She about she can't be more than
like 2 years old, but sort of
198
00:11:43,560 --> 00:11:48,200
looking at it a little, it kind
of looks like you.
199
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,320
The fuck kind of the Shining
bullshit.
200
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,080
It's just hanging on the wall
right there and you see the you
201
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:59,200
see written on it is Helen
wearing see other names there.
202
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,280
There's a there's a Victoria
seems to be the mother.
203
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,560
Jack seems to be the father
there.
204
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:11,640
There are a couple other names.
Michael, Thomas and Jeffrey, it
205
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,760
seems very weird to you.
There's something sort of
206
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:19,680
drawing you to this picture.
You said Michael and Thomas were
207
00:12:19,680 --> 00:12:22,000
two of the names.
Michael and Thomas, yes.
208
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:26,520
Like like the other two people
currently at the bar.
209
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,360
Yes, Weird, isn't it?
Very weird.
210
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:34,080
I'm going to go up to that
picture and take it off the
211
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,280
wall, assuming it is only hung
on the wall and not it's.
212
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:42,480
Just hung on the wall.
The bar keeper sort of looks up
213
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,280
from his book is, hey, what are
what are you doing?
214
00:12:46,680 --> 00:12:49,640
Oh, I just, I wanted to ask you
about this picture.
215
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,360
What can you tell me about this?
She says that she brings it over
216
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,120
to the bar.
I don't, I don't know.
217
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,440
There's a lot of pictures that
hang around here.
218
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,280
We just get it's decoration for
the bar.
219
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,920
I don't looks like a family.
It's supposed to be a family
220
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:06,720
that lives around here.
I don't know, it seems kind of
221
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:12,240
an old picture.
So as Jonesy sees Helen pick up
222
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,800
the picture, he stands up
immediately and twirls his
223
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,800
canes.
Madam, do you plan to pay for
224
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,960
that painting that you just
lifted off my good friends wall?
225
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,680
Did did you just call this a
painting?
226
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:33,160
Yeah, it's in a frame, correct.
Yes, but I failed to see what
227
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,720
that has to do with you know
what, I'm not getting caught in
228
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:37,880
this.
I was not planning on taking it.
229
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:41,240
So if you don't mind.
If you do take it without
230
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,960
paying, I will have to report
you to the proper authorities.
231
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,480
Doctor laws, Are you interacting
with this at all?
232
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,240
Have you looked at the picture?
I think I'm noticing there's a
233
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,880
commotion and.
Yeah.
234
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,280
That there is a woman holding a
picture.
235
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,720
Yeah.
I'm going to go over to her and
236
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,040
introduce myself.
Hello Doctor Michael Laws.
237
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:08,240
I'm married and it still counts.
Why would you never mind?
238
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:10,640
Hello.
I'm Helen.
239
00:14:10,680 --> 00:14:13,760
Helen Long.
I was just admiring this
240
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,520
photograph.
There's something strange about
241
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,880
it.
Yeah, it's quite striking.
242
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,840
Doctor Michael, as you are
looking at it, do realize that
243
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,200
your name is on here.
What the deuce?
244
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,040
As is the name of your brother
Jeffrey.
245
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:38,840
And the faces here do seem to
look like what you've seen of
246
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,160
yourselves when you were
younger.
247
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,200
You definitely Jeffrey's the
oldest of all the the children
248
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,920
in the picture and it kind of
looks like some of the pictures
249
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,440
that your parents have up around
the House of young Jeffrey.
250
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,560
Well, this is quite odd.
Are you 2 related?
251
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:58,080
Is this a family reunion?
Well, I'm sure I'd know.
252
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,760
I've never, I've never met this
man in my life.
253
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:06,080
Obviously you 2 are in the same
photograph and it looks like you
254
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,560
2 might have been planning a
meeting, have you?
255
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,960
Ah yes, more drinks around Baki,
more gin and tonic.
256
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:14,760
Well, I assume you're getting
this round.
257
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,960
I yes, absolutely.
I am a gentleman.
258
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,880
And you, Madam, what are you
drinking?
259
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:25,320
Bourbon.
A bourbon and then you and Jones
260
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,680
just kind of puts his nose to
your drink.
261
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:33,280
Doctor and ah, a brander, right?
That's it exactly.
262
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:38,360
Ah yes, Baki Brander and a
bourbon please.
263
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:44,080
And another gin and tonic.
Open up a tab under doctor laws.
264
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:50,880
We will gladly pay you back.
The barkeep size writes that
265
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,840
down, mutters like I know this
one person did it.
266
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,200
All the clues are coming
together.
267
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,320
It's got to be this one person
on the train and pours your
268
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,440
drinks and slides them over and
just says whatever, happy,
269
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,320
reunite, whatever, just put the
picture back when you're done.
270
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:10,840
Yes, perfect, drinks all around.
So let's grab a seat and I would
271
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,520
like to hear your two stories.
How did the long lost brother
272
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,760
and sister do this?
Tom, have you noticed that your
273
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:23,400
face is on this picture yet?
Oh, hold on.
274
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,080
My dear old mother lives in
Canterbury.
275
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:28,200
She's not.
What?
276
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,960
What is this?
Who got my picture?
277
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,720
Yeah, it looks like the youngest
child here.
278
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,880
Doesn't quite look like.
It's hard to tell.
279
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,560
It's kind of a, I guess saying
that it looks like you is maybe
280
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:46,280
a little much of A stretch
because it's kind of a baby, but
281
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:50,400
there's sort of like a dimple on
your chin that this child has as
282
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,520
well.
And it has the name, and it sort
283
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,880
of looks like it's a couple of
pictures that your dear old
284
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:56,280
mother had of you when you were
young.
285
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,160
I will have to call my dear old
mom.
286
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,720
Maybe she might have a photo
like this.
287
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,079
Maybe we're both.
We're all related.
288
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,040
Baki.
More drinks.
289
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,280
But no, I we should finish this
round first, don't you think?
290
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,359
We will have another drink right
after this one.
291
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:15,319
I'm up for.
Anything.
292
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,839
I will note now, now that you've
all sort of seen this, this is
293
00:17:19,839 --> 00:17:22,920
all kind of unsettling.
This is weird.
294
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:25,480
No kidding.
No kidding.
295
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,440
I need you all to make
difficulty for stability tests.
296
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,160
You have a.
This would be a loss of three.
297
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:37,080
So what that means is you have,
you have stability points that
298
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,320
represents your like sort of
general.
299
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,760
It's not quite your sanity,
although it's related, just your
300
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,560
ability to like hold it
together.
301
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,120
What I'm going to need you to do
is make a role difficulty 4.
302
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,680
If you fail this role, you will
lose 3 stability points.
303
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,360
I should note that your
stability can go all the way
304
00:17:55,360 --> 00:18:00,200
down to -11 before you are
absolutely, completely mad.
305
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,320
However, you may spend some
points before the role of your
306
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,680
stability.
So it's kind of a, a tricky
307
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,080
thing to think about.
You could spend one point of
308
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,800
stability and then you have a
higher chance of succeeding at
309
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,560
your role, but then you've used
up one of your points of
310
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,080
stability that you're trying to
hold on to.
311
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,880
And if you still fail then.
If you still fail, you'll still
312
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,600
lose the three points that
you're potentially going to lose
313
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,920
here.
And this is just a 1D6, correct?
314
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:31,640
The only dice you roll in this
game is AD 6 I guess the only
315
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,200
die you roll.
Nailed it.
316
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,040
Oh.
So you didn't spend anything,
317
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:37,880
Russell, Correct.
Yeah.
318
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,880
OK, Well, you got a six.
I'm going to spend 10.
319
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,160
Come on.
That's a three.
320
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:46,240
Sorry.
That's a failure.
321
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,360
So you're going to lose 3 points
and you also spent one.
322
00:18:49,360 --> 00:18:51,840
So that's a net loss of four
there.
323
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,840
Great start.
I'm not going to spend anything,
324
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:56,560
I'm just going to roll.
OK.
325
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,680
Oh, so that's a four.
That's just enough.
326
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,600
So the only person who lost out
was the only person who spent a
327
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,240
point?
Yeah, that's my luck.
328
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,880
That makes sense.
Certainly for an artist in
329
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,360
Lovecraft, yeah.
Yeah.
330
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:16,920
Yeah, yeah, Jonesy and Dr. Law
seem to not be too bothered by
331
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:18,160
this.
Maybe you're taking it into your
332
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,320
stride or something like that.
But Helen, all of this is kind
333
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,480
of unsettling to you.
Well, this bear is investigating
334
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,840
to the library.
Oh well, it is about 8:00 at
335
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,520
night, so the library would be
closed.
336
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,040
We can break in.
Wait, that's the brand you're
337
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,800
talking?
Is there anything you would like
338
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,280
to do to investigate this
though?
339
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,320
Could look at the photograph?
You could talk to people here.
340
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,920
Feel free to use any of your
investigative skills if you
341
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,240
think they apply.
Yeah, Earlier I asked the
342
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,040
bartender about it and he kind
of brushed me off.
343
00:19:51,360 --> 00:19:55,240
I've got assess honesty as an
interpersonal skill.
344
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,480
Does he actually not know
anything about it or is he
345
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,120
hiding something?
You could sort of tell that this
346
00:20:00,120 --> 00:20:01,440
guy's not trying to hide
anything.
347
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,280
He just doesn't, he doesn't want
to talk to you about this.
348
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,560
He barely looked at it, is the
thing.
349
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,640
He's it's not that he doesn't
know anything about it or knows
350
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,720
something about it.
It's more that he just sort of
351
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,880
looked at it and didn't really
think about it at all and just
352
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,960
said to leave him alone so he
could go back to reading his
353
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,600
Agatha Christie.
Which, I mean, fair.
354
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,400
Murder on the Orient Express is
one of the greatest murder
355
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:24,640
mysteries I've ever written.
Yeah.
356
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,840
Well, I'm something of a
photographer myself and telling
357
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:29,960
a thing or two about photos.
I'll flip it over and see if
358
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:31,200
anybody's written anything on
the back.
359
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,320
Do you have photography skill?
1.
360
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:35,200
We have one point of
photography.
361
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,840
OK, great.
You would need to take the
362
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,880
photograph out of the frame to
look at it more, but you could
363
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:45,920
easily get it out of the Nope.
OK, how do you open up the
364
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,200
frame?
Do you just sort of RIP it apart
365
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:49,080
or what are you?
What are?
366
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:49,920
You doing?
Absolutely.
367
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,520
I do not hold my liquor well.
Oh.
368
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,760
What are you doing?
The barkeeper says.
369
00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,160
Look.
At it, don't worry about it.
370
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:05,080
You you find a photographer's
mark on the back and it lists
371
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:09,120
the location manisty.
Well, this means nothing to me.
372
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,560
And the barkeeper sort of walks
up and statues the photo out of
373
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,920
your hands, or at least tries to
and says what are you doing?
374
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:16,880
You can't just take the photos
out of the frame.
375
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,920
This is not yours.
Can I reassure him?
376
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:24,160
Want to reassure him?
No, this is fine.
377
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,000
Don't worry about it.
This picture of me I should have
378
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,880
this.
I will say you can reassure him
379
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,080
to make him not immediately kick
you out.
380
00:21:32,360 --> 00:21:35,520
If you would like to spend a
point of reassurance, you could
381
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:37,760
make him like you and be willing
to give it to you.
382
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,880
I see no reason to hoard my
reassurance points.
383
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,800
OK, Yeah, this is definitely an
important to solving the mystery
384
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,520
of this photograph.
I guess holding on to it is kind
385
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,600
of important.
It's literally the only clue we
386
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,840
have.
This is true.
387
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,880
So far.
OK, so spending a point of
388
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,800
reassurance, he's like, fine,
whatever.
389
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,720
I guess it's you.
How about you just go to bed and
390
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,840
go go to Manistee tomorrow?
OK, leave me alone.
391
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,840
Wait, what's Manistee?
Aren't you from there?
392
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:13,120
Refresh my memory maybe?
Small village on the other side
393
00:22:13,120 --> 00:22:14,800
of the water.
It's to the West.
394
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,480
Yes, I remember now.
Very smooth.
395
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:23,200
He just sort of shakes his head
again and says, all right, well,
396
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:24,960
let me know when you want to
close out your tab.
397
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,600
Doctor goes back to his book.
Well, it sounds like we're off
398
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,800
to Manesty in the morning.
Are you working together now or
399
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:32,800
what?
What's going on?
400
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:34,880
Yes, we're a merry band.
I thought it was obvious.
401
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,000
When did this happen?
Just now with the the thing with
402
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,280
the photo.
Whatever.
403
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,840
So Jonesy's had his mouth a gape
the whole time because he just
404
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,520
witnessed vandalism.
And he's just like, I don't, I
405
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:53,520
don't know if I should report
this or roll with it.
406
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:58,640
So Jonesy's going to talk to
other other patrons at the bar.
407
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,280
There are other people here.
Yeah, there's some other people
408
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:02,520
here.
I will they.
409
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:06,280
Must be quite the sight.
I will just kind of talk to one
410
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:09,240
of the other patrons.
I'm going to use my streetwise
411
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,760
and just kind of, you know,
since people know my name,
412
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:16,080
everyone knows Jonesy, the
excellent extraordinaire
413
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:20,880
gentleman and just goes, excuse
me, all people from Manistee
414
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,880
this way.
I'm sorry to tell you, Jonesy,
415
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,120
People may know about you in
other parts of the country, but
416
00:23:27,120 --> 00:23:30,800
you have not really been to this
town before in Keswick.
417
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,560
You're kind of new to the area,
so they don't immediately
418
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,520
recognize you.
Everyone knows Jonesy.
419
00:23:39,120 --> 00:23:43,040
A streetwise spend will is not
really going to be helping you
420
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:44,880
here.
Streetwise is more dealing with
421
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,720
the criminal elements.
Oh my bad.
422
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,520
No, it's totally fine.
Streetwise is sort of a a broad
423
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:55,720
term for this, but streetwise is
more like being knowing about
424
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,280
crime stuff.
I guess you have that because
425
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,760
you are always reporting that
people who are.
426
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,880
Doing then I will use my
charmingly good looks and
427
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,560
flattery to talk to the.
People, yeah, one of them says
428
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,080
Manistee.
Nobody goes over there.
429
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,200
That's just a town that that's
like a nothing town on to the
430
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,040
West.
It's empty, a ghost town.
431
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:17,560
What do you mean?
Is it just?
432
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,000
Yeah, it's just a little fishing
village.
433
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,320
They got some pigs over there.
I don't know.
434
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,400
It's kind of nothing.
It's been there forever.
435
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,840
Is it the same quality of air as
old Keswick?
436
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,120
Actually, it smells kind of bad
there.
437
00:24:35,120 --> 00:24:37,880
It's near the it's on the Moors,
the swamps over there, they
438
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:41,160
don't smell so good.
If you really want to go to hop
439
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:45,280
on the ferry or I guess take the
southern Rd. over to the West.
440
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:51,080
Oh, OK, the ferry.
Jonesy hasn't been on a ship
441
00:24:51,120 --> 00:24:54,640
yet.
New adventure, What do you say?
442
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:56,840
And he just looks at the other
two.
443
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:58,360
Oh, I'm sorry, I wasn't
listening.
444
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,960
Yes, you have.
You are quite deep into your
445
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:07,880
brand and you miss Helen.
What do you say?
446
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,600
The road a fairy.
I don't see why either would be
447
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:12,880
a problem.
Let's do the fairy then,
448
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:16,320
assuming we can all afford the
fee.
449
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,480
Can you my friend?
Absolutely.
450
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:26,160
I'm a gentleman and a scholar.
I can afford many things.
451
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:30,040
Ain't that right, Doctor Laws?
Well, I don't think either of
452
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:31,800
those professions actually pays
very much.
453
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,400
You Sir, are quite the gentleman
yourself and you can afford
454
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:40,800
things as I have seen paying for
our rounds of branded gin and
455
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,640
tonic and bourbon.
Well, yes, but I'm a gentleman
456
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,840
at a doctor.
Doctor Michael Laws, married,
457
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,280
still counts.
Why do you keep saying that?
458
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,720
So everyone knows it still
counts.
459
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,640
OK.
Well, sounds like you guys have
460
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:58,520
kind of a plan.
If there's anything else you
461
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,280
want to do, you can do it this
evening.
462
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:04,320
But if you'd like, you could
retire to your rooms or I guess
463
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:10,280
outside Jonesy.
Jonesy is going to visit Miss
464
00:26:10,360 --> 00:26:13,800
Travis.
She's an exceptionally kind old
465
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,640
lady.
Yes, there is a nice lady named
466
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,720
Miss Travis who you recently met
when you came to town a couple
467
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,960
days ago.
And if she doesn't help me out,
468
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,640
I'll go visit my friend Tiny
who's at the library.
469
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:31,600
Miss Travis does has sort of
gone to bed, but you do know
470
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,640
that she has a little shed in
the back that she leaves a
471
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,120
little cot for you to sleep on.
God.
472
00:26:37,120 --> 00:26:39,600
Bless her, I'll settle up with
the barkeep.
473
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,080
Yeah.
Thank you, Doctor.
474
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:48,600
My pleasure, man.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, he says again,
475
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,480
not a very good bar.
Keep uninterested in talking to
476
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,320
you.
Just wants to read his book.
477
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,120
He's sure that it's this one guy
did it.
478
00:26:57,120 --> 00:26:59,800
He knows there's one person who
did it, and that person is the
479
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,160
one who did it.
He's got to keep reading and
480
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,520
figure it out.
I'm pretty sure the Butler did
481
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,880
it.
So you settling up your tab and
482
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:08,640
you guys could sort of retire to
your rooms.
483
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,840
Do you think you guys paid for
like the nice rooms at the hotel
484
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,320
or the kind of basic ones?
I think I'll go with basic.
485
00:27:15,120 --> 00:27:17,400
OK.
Yeah, I've.
486
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:21,800
Basic, totally fine.
You guys go to sleep and getting
487
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,040
ready for an interesting day
tomorrow.
488
00:27:24,120 --> 00:27:26,720
None of you guys have anything.
You don't have any particular
489
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:28,600
reason to be here, but now you
do.
490
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,200
You're sort of on vacation or
painting or just wandering
491
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,000
around.
But now you've got a little bit
492
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,680
of a thing, like try to figure
out what's going on with this
493
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,440
painting.
Oh, now I'm calling it a
494
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:39,000
painting.
Jonesy Jonesy got me going on
495
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:42,840
with this photograph.
Well, it's rotoscope, so it's
496
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:49,360
actually kind of both.
Is some really advanced shit for
497
00:27:49,360 --> 00:27:51,360
the 30s?
Yeah, exactly.
498
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:57,880
You do, however, have some
unsettling dreams, Doctor Laws.
499
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,120
That's my name.
You find yourself standing
500
00:28:02,120 --> 00:28:05,080
inside a circle of standing
stones.
501
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:11,000
There are others around you,
dancing with bizarre ritualistic
502
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:15,000
movements, whirling as they hold
their arms horizontally.
503
00:28:16,360 --> 00:28:19,800
You look down and you see your
brother Jeffrey.
504
00:28:20,360 --> 00:28:24,080
You see your brother Jeffrey
lying beside an open grave.
505
00:28:25,360 --> 00:28:30,600
In your hand is a curved,
ancient knife of strange metal.
506
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:36,480
You know what you must do.
You must slice his throat,
507
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:41,240
shoulders and calves.
What do you do?
508
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,160
Well, exactly that, it's what I
must do.
509
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:48,240
OK.
You just fucking went for it.
510
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:52,600
And then you wake up.
Wow, what an unsettling dream.
511
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:54,920
Helen.
That's me.
512
00:28:55,200 --> 00:29:00,920
You are walking across a Ridge
in the hills with a shovel in
513
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,240
your hands.
In the distance is a lake
514
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,840
glittering in the dark night.
You're tired.
515
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:12,480
You've walked for a long way,
but there are duties you must
516
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,280
perform.
You know you must continue.
517
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,640
Ahead of you is a stone circle.
What do you do?
518
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:25,240
I suppose I keep walking.
As you get closer, you start to
519
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:30,000
hear strange sounds, almost like
whispers.
520
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,520
And then you wake up and
finally, Jonesy, you're dancing.
521
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,800
It's a dream where you're
dancing, dancing around like
522
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:42,200
crazy, and you're in a stone
circle.
523
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:49,480
You hold your arms to the side,
leaping and whirling, but you're
524
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,680
executing complicated steps and
you know them.
525
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,280
You don't even need to think
about them.
526
00:29:54,640 --> 00:30:00,680
And in the middle of the circle
you see a man holding a curved
527
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:06,240
blade of metal that looks
strange with a knife, ready to
528
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,920
perform a human sacrifice.
What do you do?
529
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:14,160
Can I use sense trouble?
Buddy, there's trouble.
530
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,240
All right.
I look around for the nearest
531
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:24,920
police officer.
I admire your consistency.
532
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:32,120
There's no one here except those
dancing and the one with the
533
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:36,280
knife.
No one is coming to help, but
534
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:40,280
you don't need any help.
Everything's going to be OK,
535
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:45,160
everything is just as it should
be, and then you wake up.
536
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,880
No police.
I guess maybe that everything
537
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:52,560
isn't as it should be.
That's terrifying to you.
538
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,560
Where are the police?
Everybody?
539
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,000
Difficulty 4, loss of three
stability.
540
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:02,080
Except for you, Doctor Laws
would be a loss of four
541
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:03,880
stability because it was your
brother.
542
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:08,160
So she goes.
OK, it looks like Russell.
543
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,560
Excuse me, Doctor Laws lost
something.
544
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,880
Jonesy is good, and Helen lost
it.
545
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,960
Oh, actually, Helen, it's only
two for you 'cause all you did
546
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,400
was you were walking with a
shovel.
547
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,840
It was still a weird dream, but
it wasn't as there was no human
548
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,480
sacrifice in it.
It's good 'cause I am the one
549
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,560
who has so far suffered the
most.
550
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,360
Yeah.
Direct hits to the sanity, yeah.
551
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,960
Sanity is actually a whole other
thing that will start going
552
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,200
ticking down once you get into
the negatives of your stability,
553
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:38,440
right.
Yeah.
554
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:43,240
So by the way, the whole point
of this sort of game is you're
555
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,000
going to be driven mad.
You know this.
556
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,160
We know all why we're here.
So if you ever feel like there
557
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,160
would be something crazy that
happened or something spooky
558
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,320
that would mess with their
stability, you could just say
559
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,920
like, hey, would would that hurt
my stability?
560
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:57,240
And I'll and I'll probably say
yes.
561
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,960
So if I don't call it out, you
could call it out.
562
00:31:59,960 --> 00:32:01,040
Go for it.
It's fun.
563
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:02,520
Lovely.
That's the whole point of this,
564
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,920
all right?
And you wake up.
565
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,640
What do you do?
Well, I'll wake the sweat for my
566
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,680
brow.
That was quite an intense dream
567
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,560
and there was a lot of sawing at
the end.
568
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,360
A lot of sawing, I guess the the
cutting, yeah.
569
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,880
Jeffrey's flesh was very tough,
knife was dull.
570
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:29,640
Actually his flesh came off very
easily, it was almost loose.
571
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:36,000
Oh, that's a relief.
That's worse, yeah.
572
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,400
Would you like to do anything
before you guys head out in the
573
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,280
morning?
I suppose you had some ominous
574
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:44,640
dreams that you could maybe look
at stuff about or chat with each
575
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,040
other about.
Or you just go hop on the ferry
576
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:51,120
and go check out Manistee.
Jonesy Jonesy, you were in my
577
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:54,200
dream last night.
Before Jonesy leaves the cot, he
578
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:58,200
looks around.
Misses Travis's garden for
579
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,880
flowers.
He picks the flowers and then
580
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:04,520
puts the flowers on her back
doorstep as kind of like a gift.
581
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:06,440
Kind of.
Like, yeah.
582
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:13,640
He's a gentleman, so and then he
heads to the to the bar, but
583
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:15,680
he's got to go on patrol.
So he's just kind of looking
584
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,520
around suspiciously because that
was a rough dream for him.
585
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,280
No police, no, no authorities.
Aw, man, jeez.
586
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,760
So he's kind of looking around a
little suspiciously.
587
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:30,080
OK, and what about you, Helen?
What are you doing this morning?
588
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:34,640
Well step one, grab my fucking
supplies and sketch the shit I
589
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,240
saw.
Oh, OK.
590
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:38,520
Yeah.
That's free real estate.
591
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:44,080
You actually, as you start
sketching it and thinking about
592
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,720
it, your art knowledge means
you're actually kind of
593
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:48,440
knowledgeable about dance as
well.
594
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,360
I don't know, maybe you're
friends with a dancer or maybe
595
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,560
you're a dancer.
I, I, I don't know, I don't
596
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,960
think you're a dancer, but you
tell me about Helen.
597
00:33:56,280 --> 00:34:01,120
Was there dance in my dream?
Shoot, you didn't see the dance.
598
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,200
You were the shovel person.
Back it up, the shovel lady.
599
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:09,080
Back it up.
I hope we don't cut a lot of
600
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:13,320
this because it's really funny.
Well, we'll, we'll figure it
601
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:17,280
out.
OK, so you're sketching the the
602
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,280
stone circle that you see in the
distance?
603
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,199
Mostly, yeah.
Do you think there's anything,
604
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,040
any skills that you have that
might help you know what a stone
605
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,480
circle is from?
Well, I have architecture and
606
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,480
art history, so.
Looking at the stones, you could
607
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:37,440
tell like they look like they
were, you know, one of the many
608
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,880
stone circles around England.
But besides that, you don't
609
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:42,360
really know too much more about
it.
610
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,719
Other than that I'm not sure
what I would use so.
611
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,360
Yeah, no, that's fine.
I I'm not trying to trick you.
612
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,159
I don't actually think you have
the skills for it.
613
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,920
How much time do you spend like
sort of drawing this or painting
614
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,719
this?
I mean, I know I've got shit to
615
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:58,480
do today, so I basically just
get the rough sketch down so
616
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:02,080
that way I it's like stuck in my
head and I can paint it later.
617
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:04,080
Oh, it's going to be stuck in
your head.
618
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:06,160
And how about you, Doctor Laws?
What?
619
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,720
What do you do when you wake up?
What's your morning ritual like?
620
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,280
Oh, have breakfast.
There's a different person at
621
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,560
the bar now who seems a little
bit more friendly.
622
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:15,480
Oh thank God.
But the bar also has a little
623
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,680
restaurant there as well.
They're serving some eggs and
624
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:19,840
stuff like that and you could
get a nice little English
625
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:21,640
breakfast.
Those are continental.
626
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,240
Beans.
There is not a continental
627
00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:26,840
breakfast, no.
I don't know if they had those
628
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,560
in the the 40s, thirties, 30s.
I also don't think they had
629
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,040
those in the 40s, but it's the
30s right now.
630
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,080
I know at my earliest
convenience I'm going to be
631
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,160
discussing my dreams with my new
compatriots.
632
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:41,320
OK, Jonesy sort of is on patrol
looking around and eventually I
633
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:42,840
think we'll make it to the
restaurant.
634
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,320
Oh yeah, yeah, he definitely
makes us to the restaurant.
635
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,000
He almost like comically, kind
of floats through the air
636
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,720
because he's smelling breakfast.
Oh yeah, there's a pie on the
637
00:35:50,720 --> 00:35:54,120
windowsill.
Actually, and he kind of hopes
638
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:59,240
that his brand new best friend,
Doctor Laws, still married,
639
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:04,400
still counts, is downstairs.
And he kind of almost instantly
640
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:08,160
twirls his cane, points to
Doctor and goes, ah, my good
641
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,360
friend, what a interesting
night.
642
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,320
You going to finish that
breakfast?
643
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,520
Good question.
Now that I think about it, I
644
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,040
think I may have taken too much
my friend.
645
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,840
Perfect, I will gladly finish
that.
646
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:21,840
It's the most genuinely thing to
do.
647
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:22,960
Oh.
That's very nice of you.
648
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:25,320
Is this you being nice Doctor
Laws?
649
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,000
Certainly.
Yeah, okay.
650
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,240
And then Jonesy just scarves it
all down like.
651
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:33,400
Fast Jonesy Jonesy, we do have
silverware here.
652
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,480
Yes, perfect.
Let me wash my hands and reuse
653
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,600
the silverware.
And Helen can descend at any
654
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,440
point while you guys are sitting
there.
655
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,360
Have a conversation if you would
like.
656
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,040
Let me know when you want to
head out or if you want to do
657
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,200
anything else.
So as he's cutting the toast and
658
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,640
eggs and goes.
I had such a strange dream
659
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,680
yesterday.
Oh, myself as well.
660
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:58,440
I was dancing.
I haven't danced in a long, long
661
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:02,600
time.
Something, something stone
662
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:04,160
circles.
Yeah.
663
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,680
But I can tell you the scariest
thing about it.
664
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,560
There were no figures of a
thought.
665
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,720
My dream included a circle of
standing stones and dancing as
666
00:37:12,720 --> 00:37:17,400
well.
There I was, also dancing.
667
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:20,200
I do want to mention Doctor
Laws.
668
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:21,640
Sorry, I don't mean to
interrupt.
669
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:23,680
You were not dancing, Doctor
Laws.
670
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,200
You were standing at the circle,
not dancing, with a knife in
671
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,880
your hands.
Yes, dancing away the night.
672
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:33,600
I did also as Jones.
He's kind of cutting a little
673
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,160
slower now that the memory's
still a little, still a little
674
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,040
fresh.
There was someone in the middle
675
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:41,080
with the knife.
Was there?
676
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,960
Were there also someone in the
dream with a knife in the middle
677
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,120
of the circle?
Yes, I recall seeing that as
678
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:48,560
well.
How strange that we've had the
679
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:50,800
same dream.
Clearly, our shared experience
680
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,480
last night has done something to
our brains.
681
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,440
And it's at this point that
Helen comes down from her room,
682
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,480
and she's like, yes, I overheard
a bit of this.
683
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:01,400
Did the stone circle look like
this?
684
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,680
And she pulls out the sketch
that she made of it.
685
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:10,960
Yes.
I had a dream last night where I
686
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,720
was walking to this place
carrying a shovel.
687
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:15,200
Yes, probably to bury my
brother.
688
00:38:15,240 --> 00:38:16,240
I mean nothing.
What?
689
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,920
What?
Dancing the night.
690
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:25,280
Away.
Yes, You have a brother.
691
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,760
Best Jeffrey, one of my finest
friends.
692
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,000
How old is he?
He's a couple years older than
693
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,560
me.
Oh, is he a good man?
694
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,880
Is he a gentleman and esteemed
as you?
695
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:36,240
Yes.
All right.
696
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,640
Why did we need to bury him in
the dream?
697
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,800
Well, you don't walk away from
that much blood loss, let me
698
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,240
tell you that.
Jones is just kind of eyes, both
699
00:38:43,240 --> 00:38:47,720
of you suspiciously.
And yes, how about we just leave
700
00:38:47,720 --> 00:38:50,560
for this fairy before this
conversation requires me to go
701
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,960
talk to someone, Yes.
Sounds good to me.
702
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,920
Helen rolls up the drawing.
The second location.
703
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,080
Wonderful.
As you're getting to go, you
704
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,440
hear a ton of static coming from
around you.
705
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,600
You're not quite sure where it's
coming from, just this really
706
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:08,240
loud, staticky sound.
Sounds like someone's radio is
707
00:39:08,240 --> 00:39:11,240
on the Fritz.
Shall we quickly take a look?
708
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,960
I would like to see a radio.
Yeah, there's a radio on the bar
709
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,600
and you notice that somebody
must have brought it out to set
710
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,000
up some music, but you're just
hearing all this, this wild
711
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,280
static coming out of it.
Can I use a mechanical repair?
712
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,640
Just ask the bar key.
Do you hear that seg?
713
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:29,360
May I take a quick look and see
if I can fix that?
714
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,120
He looks at you and sort of
turns his head to the side, says
715
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:34,640
no, no, the radio works just
fine.
716
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:36,920
OK, I got no money for you.
I'm sorry.
717
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,520
Oh no, I won't do it.
I won't do it for money.
718
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:41,520
I won't do that.
The kindness of my heart, it's
719
00:39:41,720 --> 00:39:44,720
gentlemanly thing to do.
No, you don't need the music.
720
00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:45,640
Sounds just fine.
OK.
721
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:46,880
Don't.
Don't mess with the radio.
722
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:50,400
But it sounds like static.
No, it sounds like Cole Porter.
723
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,160
What are you talking about?
Oh.
724
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,160
You know, and then Jonesy just
kind of picks his ear and pulls
725
00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:57,440
out a big old thing, that ear
wax.
726
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:01,840
Yes, my word, yes.
It's just, it's just my ears.
727
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,280
And kind of like sheepishly
walks out.
728
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:05,800
Oh no.
Hell and stability.
729
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,320
Yeah, 2 point stability loss
difficulty 4.
730
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,920
I swear there's other mechanics
in this game besides losing
731
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,040
stability.
Oh God, that's a one.
732
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,120
OK.
So you want to down to two
733
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:19,360
stability?
Jonesy loses 2.
734
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:20,880
I'll think nothing of it, my
friends.
735
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:22,480
I don't really understand music
either.
736
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:26,040
Can't believe it.
You're just.
737
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,400
Nothing is bothering you, Doctor
lost.
738
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:32,760
You're just completely fine.
I lost some from the dream.
739
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:34,480
You lost some from the dream,
you did lose some from the
740
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,960
dream.
So plan is go to the ferry
741
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,760
leaving Keswick, get ahead on
the ferry over to Manistee.
742
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,320
Before we leave, hold on what?
What time does the ferry leave?
743
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:45,040
Leaves at 10.
OK, what?
744
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:47,880
What time is it I?
Don't know, it's like 9 or so,
745
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,160
maybe 8:30.
OK, we have an hour real quick.
746
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:55,120
So knowing certain things of the
streets, Jonesy is going to go
747
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:58,960
talk to his dear friend Tiny,
who sleeps at the library.
748
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,840
He kind of wants to get some
information about manasy.
749
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:06,920
Maybe Tiny might know something?
And adjacent to that, I'd like
750
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,920
to use my library use skill to
see if Helen can find anything
751
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,400
out about the circle that she
saw.
752
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:14,560
OK, got it.
If there's any record of
753
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,080
something like that in the area
or?
754
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:20,320
Yeah, of course, Of course.
OK, heading over to the library.
755
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:22,960
How about you, Doctor?
I will wait patiently at the
756
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,520
fairy landing.
Just sort of wait at the fairy
757
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:27,120
landing.
OK, sure.
758
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,920
I don't see how medical records
or hospital wards would help me
759
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,080
right now.
OK, Helen, you sort of go
760
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,400
through the books.
You you have a library skill.
761
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:40,840
As you're looking through the
books, you do find that this
762
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:44,360
seems to be Castle Rig Circle.
The description of it looks
763
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:48,040
about right, and it's relatively
nearby, a little bit north of
764
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:50,240
the water.
I see.
765
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:55,400
I keep saying the water that is
a lake that is between here and
766
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,320
Manistee.
It's called the water.
767
00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:01,440
But yes there is a old stone
circle called Castle Rig.
768
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:06,440
Reading about it, there's not
much to it, just that it's not
769
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:11,000
of modern craftsmanship
obviously, but also it doesn't
770
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:17,680
really match quite up with any
of the other stone circles built
771
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:19,400
by druids and stuff around this
time.
772
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:23,080
It seems to be unique.
In fact it seems to be better
773
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,960
constructed than any of the
other ones that are around.
774
00:42:26,240 --> 00:42:29,240
But besides that, nothing,
nothing more to it.
775
00:42:29,240 --> 00:42:32,400
It's just sort of an odd
archaeological footnote, as it
776
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,280
were.
And Jonesy, you're, you're able
777
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:38,200
to talk to Tiny He, he's happy
to see you in the morning.
778
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:43,440
Jonesy, my man, come, come.
He gives you a big old hug.
779
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:49,240
My dude, how are you doing?
Getting by, getting by, You know
780
00:42:49,240 --> 00:42:51,600
how it is.
Yeah, you know how it is.
781
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:54,480
And you know, one of the things
that everyone keeps falling
782
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:57,920
about is this this act anyways,
you know anything about
783
00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,160
Manistee?
Manistee.
784
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,840
Yeah.
Yeah, no, that's, that's that
785
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:04,200
little village over there,
right?
786
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:06,920
Yeah, yeah.
That's what I hear.
787
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:09,680
Any anything to look for?
Do we got any signs over there?
788
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:14,280
No, it's kind of a small town.
I've been over there once
789
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:15,880
before.
Not much to it.
790
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:19,240
It's like a little inn over
there and just some houses and
791
00:43:19,240 --> 00:43:21,680
some some fishermen and a couple
of farmers.
792
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:23,960
Really nothing.
Nothing that exciting over
793
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,920
there.
Do you know if we have any
794
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:32,720
interesting stone circles there?
I don't know any stone circles.
795
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:34,520
I think.
I think a little bit to the
796
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:37,680
South there was like a couple of
broken down buildings, but I
797
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:39,400
wouldn't call those stone
circles.
798
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:41,520
Well, what type of the buildings
were they used?
799
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:44,560
I don't know, I was just looking
for a place to stay.
800
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:49,000
I found a couple of like torn
down buildings like ruins but
801
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,480
like I don't know it there
wasn't enough cover from the
802
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,080
wind.
They're not.
803
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:58,280
They're not safe.
No, it's, it's better just stay
804
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,640
over here.
Warmer, more friendly people.
805
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:04,360
People over there, not too
friendly, not unfriendly, but I
806
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,800
don't think they get too many
visitors is the thing, you know?
807
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,360
And if I, you know, twirl the
cane, tip the hat, people,
808
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,320
people kind of fall for that
kind of thing.
809
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,200
I am a gentleman after all.
You can give it a shot.
810
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:20,400
They always love you, Jonesy.
Everyone loves old Jonesy, so
811
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,880
all right, cool.
Why you ask about Mantasy?
812
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:26,840
You going over there?
Yeah, a person that's a doctor
813
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:30,600
that I'm kind of schmoozing, he
might be able to pay for a few
814
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:34,360
things and might be able to look
after me, maybe if we head back
815
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,600
to London.
Yeah, he's paying.
816
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:41,040
He's paying for everything.
This guy's a sucker, so.
817
00:44:43,240 --> 00:44:45,400
Yeah, and he's and he's going to
Manistee.
818
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:49,200
Yeah, he's going to Manistee.
The hospitals in Keswick?
819
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,760
Why is he going to Manistee?
Maybe he has someone he has to
820
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,760
look after, something about a
brother or I don't know.
821
00:44:56,720 --> 00:45:00,280
Oh, OK, You stay safe, Jonesy.
Yeah, take it easy, Tiny.
822
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:02,120
You know what?
Yeah, yeah, take it easy.
823
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:06,720
And Jonesy pulls out a shilling
and flicks it towards Tiny and
824
00:45:06,720 --> 00:45:08,880
goes live large.
You got it.
825
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,920
I should note that Tiny is of
course, a huge man.
826
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:16,520
That's why he said live large.
Yeah, Anything else you want to
827
00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:18,280
squeeze in before the ferry
arrived?
828
00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:20,480
I could inquire after the health
of my brother.
829
00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:25,240
OK, just give him a call.
Yeah, You call his house in
830
00:45:25,240 --> 00:45:29,040
London, he does not pick up.
Well, I'm sure he's fine.
831
00:45:29,240 --> 00:45:31,360
I'll write him a letter.
You'll write him a letter.
832
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:33,280
OK, What are you going to write
him in the letter?
833
00:45:33,720 --> 00:45:35,920
Dear Jeffrey, how are you?
I am fine.
834
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,560
Keswick is OK.
I'm going to go explore
835
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:39,800
Manassee.
That's it.
836
00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,800
Yeah.
No, like I think we're adopted
837
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,880
or anything like that.
It's a very strange picture the
838
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:47,760
other day.
That's why I'm going to explore
839
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:48,880
Manassee.
Goodbye.
840
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:50,280
Got it.
Love it.
841
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,520
The boat arrives, you hop on the
ferry.
842
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:56,680
It's uneventful, honestly.
The fact that it stops at
843
00:45:56,680 --> 00:46:01,040
Manistee is kind of a side note.
It's got a couple of stops and
844
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:04,840
it swings by Manistee on the
way, but you are able to take
845
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:08,360
the ferry there and you arrive
in the small town of Manistee.
846
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,680
It's on the other side of the
Derwent Water.
847
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:17,000
And as you cross this beautiful,
dark and glittering lake, you
848
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:22,400
see the village, which is
constructed of mostly local Gray
849
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:25,480
slate stone.
It's pretty grim and foreboding.
850
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:31,040
They're blocky stone buildings
and there's just sort of nothing
851
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:34,160
really too much to it, but it's
small little village.
852
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:40,000
My word, it stinks here.
The barkeep was not lying.
853
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,040
Wow.
Well.
854
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:46,360
Yes, I guess the best thing to
do, my friends, is why don't we
855
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:50,080
go introduce ourselves to the
closest bar, Hmm.
856
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,880
Gin and tonics.
I don't see any trouble going
857
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:54,720
on.
Maybe I'd go on one of my
858
00:46:54,720 --> 00:46:56,440
patrols.
Helen, would you like to come
859
00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:59,480
with me on one of my famous
patrols?
860
00:47:01,240 --> 00:47:04,600
No.
Oh, what?
861
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:09,880
What about if it's?
You might get inspirational art
862
00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:13,000
inspiration.
Shit.
863
00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:16,960
All right.
Ah, perfect.
864
00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:20,080
You never go on patrol by
yourself if you're in an unknown
865
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,080
place.
And you, doctor, would you like
866
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:25,600
to go on patrol?
Nah, I think I'll go wander off
867
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:30,160
alone for a while.
OK, well, be careful.
868
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:34,680
Seems like a bad idea.
As you all are wandering around
869
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:38,960
the town, one pair and one solo,
there are people that are sort
870
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:40,600
of going about their daily
lives.
871
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,640
People going down to fish, some
people that are working,
872
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:45,720
building some stuff.
There's a Cooper, you know,
873
00:47:45,720 --> 00:47:47,880
making a barrel.
You hear the sound of a couple
874
00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:51,320
of pigs near the edge of town.
People are giving you like sort
875
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:55,120
of odd looks, but nobody's sort
of walking up and talking to you
876
00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:56,920
necessarily as you're looking
around.
877
00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:00,800
Near the center of town, one of
the only sort of public places
878
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:05,280
is a little building that has a
sign outside that says the
879
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,640
Leeward Inn.
Besides that, there's just
880
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:11,240
mostly a bunch of houses.
I don't know I without knowing a
881
00:48:11,240 --> 00:48:14,160
particular house to look for, I
don't know what you could do.
882
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:16,440
So the doctor will meet back up
with these guys.
883
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:20,040
Wow, this place sucks.
Quite.
884
00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:22,280
Yeah, I thought Keswick was a
dumb does.
885
00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:24,760
Anyone feel like we maybe made a
mistake and we should go back?
886
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:28,000
Nonsense, nonsense.
We gotta give every town a
887
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:31,160
chance.
Why don't we go into the inn and
888
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:35,440
then we can introduce ourselves
to at least some of the locals.
889
00:48:35,720 --> 00:48:41,040
If need be, I can go in first,
tip the hat, twirl the cane and
890
00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:44,040
put on my charm.
You do still have that
891
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:46,360
photograph.
I suppose I should mention as
892
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,840
you're looking at the photograph
a little bit more, you know,
893
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:52,520
after you stole it from the bar,
I mean, took it with permission
894
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,240
from the bar.
The picture does appear to be in
895
00:48:55,240 --> 00:48:57,080
front of one of these Gray
houses.
896
00:48:57,320 --> 00:48:59,960
Unfortunately, they're all kind
of Gray stone houses, so that
897
00:48:59,960 --> 00:49:01,800
doesn't really narrow it down
too much.
898
00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:04,840
We could ask the innkeeper about
the picture.
899
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:07,880
Sure.
Brilliant idea, Helen, Brilliant
900
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:08,960
idea.
All right.
901
00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:13,840
Well, as you head into the inn,
it's cold and dark and there's
902
00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:17,880
kind of nobody in here.
No one's really drinking at
903
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:19,520
noon.
Amateurs.
904
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:24,080
You actually do see there's a
couple of people sitting at one
905
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,080
table and then one lone figure
sitting at another table.
906
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,560
But there's a woman behind the
bar who sort of looks out at you
907
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:33,520
and says, more visitors to town.
Well, is there some sort of
908
00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:36,560
convention?
There's a convention in town.
909
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:40,040
What type of convention?
I do love people.
910
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:43,400
I am Tom Jones.
You can call me Jonesy.
911
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:48,920
And these are my compatriots.
Miss Helen an artist and we have
912
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,200
a doctor.
Is anyone sick in town?
913
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:56,800
She's just sort of looking at
you with narrowed eyes and both
914
00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:59,760
narrowed eyes of suspicion but
also confusion.
915
00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:04,800
You're kind of a lot for her.
Just a big ol smile on Jonesy's
916
00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:07,760
face.
Yeah, she says.
917
00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:11,320
No, there isn't a convention.
Maybe you could tell me.
918
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:13,360
We already had another visitor
come by yesterday.
919
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:18,280
I don't know who you guys are.
Are you you with the bank?
920
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:19,680
Are you trying to buy up the
land?
921
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:20,640
What?
What's going on?
922
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:22,680
Why is it cheap?
I don't.
923
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,760
I don't really know anything
about that really.
924
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,800
Sorry about my friend here and
Helen kind of a little bit
925
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:33,360
pushes him to side.
Oh my pardons.
926
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:37,840
I suppose I'll start with some
good old fashioned reassurance.
927
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:39,720
OK?
Terribly sorry if we gave off
928
00:50:39,720 --> 00:50:42,560
the wrong first impression.
He's eccentric.
929
00:50:42,720 --> 00:50:47,200
He certainly is.
But we're here in town on a
930
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:49,240
voyage of self discovery, we'll
call it.
931
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:53,000
She rolls her eyes.
Yeah, I know.
932
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:57,040
I get that all the time.
But but we do mean no harm, You
933
00:50:57,040 --> 00:51:00,760
said another someone else from
out of town came in recently.
934
00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:03,960
Did they give you a name or
anything like that?
935
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:07,000
I don't know.
We got a got a room last night.
936
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:10,320
He stayed up there, Jeff or
something like that.
937
00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:12,600
No, Jeffrey, it's my brother.
What?
938
00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:15,400
What?
I second that.
939
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:17,600
What?
Oh, it makes sense.
940
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:19,720
He was in the picture, so he's
come to investigate too.
941
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:23,760
How would he know?
How would he know what's in this
942
00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:26,240
picture if we have this picture
right here?
943
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:29,760
Well, maybe he's got a copy.
What picture?
944
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,440
What are you talking about?
This one right here.
945
00:51:32,720 --> 00:51:34,240
I got it from a bar across the
water.
946
00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:37,560
OK.
Look, it's me and Jonesy and
947
00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:41,880
Helen.
Oh, so you're you're from around
948
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:42,920
here?
I don't really.
949
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:48,640
Wait, are you Jack's old son?
Sure, why not?
950
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,880
Could you tell us a bit more?
Like I said, it's a journey of
951
00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:54,120
self discovery so we don't know
ourselves.
952
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:57,080
No, I, I I recognize this
picture.
953
00:51:57,080 --> 00:52:01,400
This is if these are you that
then you must be Jack and
954
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:03,800
Victoria's kids.
Rest their soul.
955
00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:06,880
Oh, wow.
Why are you coming back after
956
00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:11,000
all this time?
Well, hold on, hold on.
957
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:15,760
Maybe they're related.
No, that is a child.
958
00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:18,360
That is a baby that is not old.
Jonesy.
959
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:24,880
My mother, Misses Jones, God
bless her, is a seamstress in
960
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,800
Canterbury.
I'm along with them 'cause these
961
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,680
are my dear friends that I've
met in Keswick.
962
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:34,520
They must be mistaken.
Well, Jonesy, I'm something of a
963
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:40,000
doctor that most adults at one
point in their life are babies.
964
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:42,760
But don't all babies look the
same?
965
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:45,200
Well, yes, most people do when
it comes right down to it.
966
00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:50,600
Yeah, see, we're not related.
My dear old mom's in Canterbury.
967
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:52,240
God bless her.
I should call her on the phone.
968
00:52:52,240 --> 00:52:55,880
She has a new phone.
We, we have a phone here if you
969
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:57,840
want to call, I guess whatever.
Absolutely.
970
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:00,600
I will call my mother and we'll
have the discussion.
971
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:06,440
I'm from England, I am English.
God bless you.
972
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:08,440
I would also.
Like to call my mother about
973
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:11,800
this.
And where might Jeffrey be my
974
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:14,320
brother?
I sure.
975
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:16,800
I guess if he's your brother,
there's, there's a room in the
976
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:19,160
back where he's staying.
I, I don't think he's left it.
977
00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:22,160
He's been in there.
He seemed kind of worried.
978
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:24,760
I, I don't know, but whatever
you have the phone's over there.
979
00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:28,640
Feel free to make a call.
Are you buying anything?
980
00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,080
Oh, bourbon for me.
OK.
981
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:37,000
Gin and tonic on her tab please.
Well, I'll go fetch Jeffrey and
982
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:39,480
we'll all have a drink together.
Perfect.
983
00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,440
All right, who?
Which one do you think's is
984
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:46,960
gonna make the phone call first?
I will gladly let the fine lady
985
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:49,800
call first.
Helen appreciates it.
986
00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:55,040
She knocks down her drink and
dials up her mom and Chelsea.
987
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:59,240
Hello.
Hello, mother.
988
00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:04,040
It's it's Helen.
Oh, Helen, dear.
989
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:07,760
How are you doing?
How's the art coming along?
990
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,760
You always were so talented.
It's been so long since I've
991
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:15,520
heard from you, darling.
Yeah, Terribly sorry about that.
992
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:20,400
I Yeah, I was in Keswick.
Oh, that's out in the Lake
993
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:21,600
District, right?
Yeah.
994
00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:24,320
What are you doing out there?
I was.
995
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:28,320
Looking for artistic
inspiration, a friend pointed me
996
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:31,040
in this direction.
Well, a client and admirer.
997
00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:33,760
Oh, you always have so many
admirers.
998
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:41,360
Yes, right now I'm in Manistee,
the town across the lake.
999
00:54:41,880 --> 00:54:44,040
I'm sorry, what?
Mother, is there something you'd
1000
00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:46,160
like to tell me?
About.
1001
00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,800
About.
Manistee, yes.
1002
00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:54,080
Helen, I There's no easy way to
say this.
1003
00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:58,040
I Well, when you were young, you
were, you were too young to tell
1004
00:54:58,040 --> 00:54:59,320
about this.
We didn't know when.
1005
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:02,000
And another time passed and we
don't.
1006
00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:06,480
Your father and I didn't.
Mother, am I adopted?
1007
00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:12,000
Yes, yes, there was a woman,
your birth mother, a woman named
1008
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:17,240
Victoria, had put you and some
of her other children up for for
1009
00:55:17,240 --> 00:55:20,600
adoption.
And your father and I, we, we'd
1010
00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:25,440
never been able to conceive.
So we took you into our family.
1011
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:30,120
And, and I know, I'm sorry I
never told you, but you should
1012
00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:32,800
know that we will always be your
family.
1013
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,880
I think of you as my daughter,
100%.
1014
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:40,360
I, I, I You may not have come
from me, but you are my flesh
1015
00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:42,880
and blood spiritually if not.
It's all right.
1016
00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:46,040
You are my mother.
You could tell that she's baby
1017
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:49,320
getting ready to cry she's feels
so guilty about this.
1018
00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:53,760
And I promise you, no matter
what may come to pass, you will
1019
00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:55,960
always be my mother.
Well, thank you darling.
1020
00:55:56,240 --> 00:56:01,560
I How did you figure this out?
It's a long story, OK?
1021
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:03,720
I'll tell you all about it when
I come home.
1022
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,480
If I come home.
Darling, don't speak like that.
1023
00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:11,120
For some reason, the world feels
rather crazy right now.
1024
00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,080
I'll call you back if I get the
chance.
1025
00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:15,000
I love you.
Bye.
1026
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:16,120
I.
Love you too, darling.
1027
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:19,840
Helen hangs up.
Are you all right, Miss Ellen?
1028
00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:23,240
That was a sobering
conversation.
1029
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:26,960
Sobering indeed.
I need another bourbon.
1030
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:32,160
One point loss test.
It's not too much because you
1031
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:34,880
kind of were already starting to
put these clues together in your
1032
00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:37,560
head.
Well, I passed this time.
1033
00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:40,200
OK, first check, I've actually
passed.
1034
00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:46,400
So Jonesy hasn't called his dear
old mum in a very long time.
1035
00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:51,880
So he kind of fiddles around in
front of the phone.
1036
00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:55,640
Just, I don't know, She's she's
getting there in age.
1037
00:56:55,640 --> 00:57:02,360
I don't want to bother her.
All right, I'll call her.
1038
00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:06,120
So yeah, that's his dear old
mom.
1039
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:10,800
Hello, Mom.
Thomas, Is that you, Thomas?
1040
00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:14,840
Yes, ma'am, it is your baby boy
Thomas.
1041
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:19,120
I have finally called you.
Oh, Thomas, it's so good to hear
1042
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:20,280
from you.
We don't hear from you.
1043
00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:22,560
It's so long.
I know that you had gone into
1044
00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:26,440
the city to look for work and
And how how are you, my boy?
1045
00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:30,640
Oh, it's been so.
Long, Your clothes are still the
1046
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:33,600
best pair of clothes you've ever
made.
1047
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:38,680
My dear old mom.
The coach, fantastic in great
1048
00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:42,400
condition.
The cap, the bowler hat, still
1049
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:45,080
in mint condition.
Mom, these are the best things
1050
00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:48,720
I'm telling you.
You need to sell your clothes to
1051
00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:52,520
the wider public.
Stop working for that awful man.
1052
00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:57,680
You know that I can't compete
with the the textile mills that
1053
00:57:57,680 --> 00:58:01,280
they have these days, darling.
I've been showing your clothes
1054
00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:03,920
everywhere I go.
I've been going like the weave
1055
00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:07,800
leaf on the wind, as Wordsworth
once said.
1056
00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:13,720
Something beautiful.
I can't remember anything but.
1057
00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:18,760
You always were so well read.
Your dear old son is doing quite
1058
00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:21,160
well.
He's well known across all of
1059
00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:24,960
London and and England will soon
know Tom Jones.
1060
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:27,400
Well, I, I, I don't doubt it,
dear.
1061
00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:29,640
I don't doubt it.
I just make sure that you're
1062
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:31,720
eating well.
It's tough out there these days.
1063
00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:35,640
Oh yes, absolutely, ma'am.
It's it is definitely tough, but
1064
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:38,200
I found some great people along
the road.
1065
00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:42,880
I'm with a doctor right now.
I'm helping him look for his
1066
00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:47,160
brother in some small village
called Manistee.
1067
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:50,720
Ring a bell?
It sounds familiar, but I I
1068
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:53,320
can't say I I don't I don't
really know.
1069
00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:56,640
Perfect.
That is totally fine Mom.
1070
00:58:56,640 --> 00:59:01,720
I went to Keswick and then to
this small little town helping a
1071
00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:05,320
doctor.
I do have a question to ask you,
1072
00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:08,160
mother.
Do you know anyone named
1073
00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:14,640
Jeffrey?
Jeffrey Jeffrey Wolfson, he we
1074
00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:17,800
see him at church.
Yes, I remember him.
1075
00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:20,200
I I don't really know any other
Jeffreys.
1076
00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:22,400
I'm sorry.
Sorry.
1077
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:25,520
Are you looking for a There are
a lot of Jeffreys in the in the
1078
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:27,720
land you know.
Oh yes, it's a very common name.
1079
00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:32,200
I just the name slipped.
What about a Michael Laws?
1080
00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:35,920
Anyone named Laws?
No, I I don't know anyone named
1081
00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:37,720
laws.
I'm I'm sorry, dear.
1082
00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:41,120
You might need to look in a
well, I was going to say phone
1083
00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:42,120
book.
Are there phone books?
1084
00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:43,320
I guess there's maybe a phone
book?
1085
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:47,480
I will call the director or the
operators.
1086
00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:51,280
Yes, the operators, The
switchboard people, yes.
1087
00:59:51,320 --> 00:59:53,840
OK, Mother, you have helped me
out a lot.
1088
00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:57,240
God bless you.
I hope you are in good health.
1089
00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:00,520
And yes.
Nothing else you wanted to ask
1090
01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:06,520
me, darling.
It's it is a crazy, crazy story.
1091
01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:11,680
There was a picture that my
friends and associates found
1092
01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:17,400
that apparently a small child, a
baby apparently looks like me
1093
01:00:17,400 --> 01:00:20,040
and I was being held by another
family.
1094
01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:25,840
They think that I'm adopted.
Oh, darling, sweetie, Thomas I
1095
01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:29,040
that is.
That is true.
1096
01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:32,880
Before you tell me anything,
Mother, that's not true.
1097
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:34,360
I'm gonna.
I'm gonna go.
1098
01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:38,680
I can barely hear you right now.
And you have a great day.
1099
01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:39,920
Love you.
Click.
1100
01:00:40,320 --> 01:00:43,640
Ha ha.
That that that rattled fucking
1101
01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:46,440
old Todd Jonesy.
That really rattled him.
1102
01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:50,280
I think that might be a two
point loss for you.
1103
01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:53,120
OK, a second round for my
friend.
1104
01:00:54,520 --> 01:00:58,840
No, ignorance is bliss.
You just Yeah, you rolled A6.
1105
01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:01,480
Obviously not true.
Your mom's too old.
1106
01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:02,360
She doesn't know what she's
talking.
1107
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:04,720
About she's up there in it.
Yes, Jen and Todd, actually, you
1108
01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:05,920
know what?
I'll take a Brandy.
1109
01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:12,640
A What she means Brandy.
No, OK, don't have much, but OK.
1110
01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:15,600
It's not not what it's called.
It's not called a Brander.
1111
01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:17,600
Helen just size and Pats him on
the shoulder.
1112
01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:23,640
That is also devastating.
All right, Doctor laws, While
1113
01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:25,880
these phone conversations were
going on, you made your way to
1114
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:30,880
the back and you knocked on the
door to the room.
1115
01:01:31,120 --> 01:01:34,880
But do you get no response?
Well, as is our custom when
1116
01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:37,320
dealing with my brother, I will
knock louder than required.
1117
01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:40,240
Open up.
You hear it Sounds like kind of
1118
01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:43,360
a groan coming from in there.
Go away.
1119
01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:45,920
Jeffrey, open up with me.
Michael.
1120
01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:48,240
Yes, it's me, your brother.
What are you doing?
1121
01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:52,760
And you hear the sound of
movement, and the door opens.
1122
01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:57,880
And you were right, of course.
The Jeff that they were talking
1123
01:01:57,880 --> 01:02:00,480
about is your dear brother
Jeffrey.
1124
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:03,960
And to put it bluntly, he looks
like shit.
1125
01:02:04,960 --> 01:02:09,400
He seems to be sweating like
crazy, His skin looks rather
1126
01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:12,320
pale, and most importantly, he
looks like he hasn't been
1127
01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:14,280
sleeping and looks almost
panicked.
1128
01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:17,480
It it.
It's good to see you, Michael.
1129
01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:19,480
I What?
What are you doing here?
1130
01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:22,240
Well, we found this picture and
we've extrapolated that we've
1131
01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:24,880
probably adopted some strange
dreams and happenings have me
1132
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:27,440
thinking that maybe I'm destined
to sacrifice you in a standing
1133
01:02:27,440 --> 01:02:30,680
circle.
I'm sorry, what?
1134
01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:35,160
Why would you open with that I?
Me and my brother have a special
1135
01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:37,160
bond.
He just goes and lays back down
1136
01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:41,160
on the bed.
I think I'm dying.
1137
01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:45,080
Not yet you're not.
No, I know you're a doctor and
1138
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:47,440
you keep people from dying, but
but I can't.
1139
01:02:47,640 --> 01:02:51,080
And you see that he's like
touching his wrist, touching his
1140
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:54,960
neck, and he says like, I don't,
I don't have a heartbeat there.
1141
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:58,440
There's something wrong with me?
This seems like a job for first
1142
01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:01,040
aid.
Actually, this would be less
1143
01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:05,440
first aid, because first aid is
the actual like going in and
1144
01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:08,160
fixing someone, which I suppose
you're going to do.
1145
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:11,160
But to diagnose someone, to
figure out what's wrong with
1146
01:03:11,160 --> 01:03:13,840
them, that is a medicine.
Hey, if nobody else has been
1147
01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:16,080
here on first aid.
You don't also have medicine.
1148
01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:17,200
I do.
OK.
1149
01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:21,200
Well, regardless, first aid or
medicine can get you.
1150
01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:24,960
As you go over to him and start,
you do try to take his pulse.
1151
01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:28,880
And he's right.
You can't find his pulse on his
1152
01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:32,320
wrist, on his carotid, or
anywhere else.
1153
01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:36,880
He feels very clammy to the
touch and he looks very pale.
1154
01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:42,040
He says that his skin feels
loose, and as you're just sort
1155
01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:47,320
of examining him, it you don't
really know how to say this.
1156
01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:53,320
D glove.
No, he seems to be dead, or at
1157
01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:58,520
least not alive by any normal
sense of medicine.
1158
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:02,120
He does not have any of the
things that an alive person
1159
01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:04,400
should have.
Well, Jeffrey, it seems like
1160
01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:06,600
your tickers stop ticking.
We ought to get a drink in you
1161
01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:10,080
and figure this out.
All right, this will be a five
1162
01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:11,600
loss of stability.
Perfect.
1163
01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:16,680
How do you keep rolling?
Nothing phases you.
1164
01:04:17,120 --> 01:04:21,880
This should be should probably
bother you, doctor.
1165
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:26,680
OK, well, OK, he says.
I don't think I could drink
1166
01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:29,680
anything.
I'm not thirsty or hungry.
1167
01:04:29,760 --> 01:04:32,920
I just feel so sick brother.
Well, let's test your
1168
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:35,800
hypothesis.
So do you like sort of get him
1169
01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:37,840
up at all about to the bar?
Yes.
1170
01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:43,160
OK, as you 2 are wrapping up
your phone calls you see the
1171
01:04:43,160 --> 01:04:47,400
doctor coming out with a man
who, as previously mentioned,
1172
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:50,360
looks like shit.
Jonesy raises a glass.
1173
01:04:50,400 --> 01:04:52,320
Goes here.
Here he found his brother.
1174
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:55,840
Hear that everybody?
He found his long lost brother.
1175
01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:58,120
Yes, Jonesy.
Helen, this is my brother
1176
01:04:58,120 --> 01:05:00,360
Jeffrey.
Introduce yourself, Jeffrey.
1177
01:05:01,440 --> 01:05:07,120
Hello, I'm I'm sorry, can I go
lay back down brother or go I I
1178
01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:10,920
think I'm dying.
He looks really bad, Doctor.
1179
01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:13,240
Oh my God, please get that man
somehow.
1180
01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:15,480
Why don't we have him actually
sit down?
1181
01:05:15,480 --> 01:05:19,440
Let's is there like a booth or
the table we can sit him down
1182
01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:20,800
at?
There is, yeah.
1183
01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:23,280
And so Jonesy pulls out a chair
and goes.
1184
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:24,840
Sit down, Sir.
Thank you.
1185
01:05:25,080 --> 01:05:26,480
Thank you.
At Gin and Tonic.
1186
01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:29,760
Can I just have a water baby?
Gin and tonic.
1187
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:31,960
Bottle of your most sterile
Brandy.
1188
01:05:32,160 --> 01:05:33,160
A water.
What?
1189
01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:36,720
The lady said.
In any case, I don't mean to
1190
01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:40,080
jump right into business when
you are clearly so ill, but
1191
01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:41,680
before anything else, I must
ask.
1192
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:44,920
Helen pulls out the sketch.
Have you dreamed of this
1193
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:48,360
location anytime recently?
It's why I'm here.
1194
01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:51,000
I thought so.
I've been dreaming of this place
1195
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:54,600
and I I had to come here.
I knew I had to come here.
1196
01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:57,280
But you're glad to see me.
It is always good to see you
1197
01:05:57,280 --> 01:05:59,680
brother.
I don't think I can do it.
1198
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:03,000
I feel so sick.
Maybe we should take him to
1199
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:06,560
Keswick, to the hospital like.
Yeah, what happened to him?
1200
01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:09,960
He does not look good, doctor.
Yeah, that seems like it might
1201
01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:11,800
be a decent idea.
Nonsense.
1202
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:15,840
I'm the Doctor here.
There's something weirdly funny
1203
01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,680
about the two random people
having more compassion for this
1204
01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:22,440
man's brother than the
compassionate Dr. Isn't one of
1205
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:24,920
your things that you care about
people in that written on your
1206
01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:26,480
character sheet?
I save lives.
1207
01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:28,720
Humanity is essentially good.
Yeah, yes.
1208
01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:29,840
We should take him to the
doctor.
1209
01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:33,720
Not doctor, hospital I suppose.
Yes, yeah, yeah, No, that would
1210
01:06:33,720 --> 01:06:36,720
be that's probably for the best
to go to the hospital.
1211
01:06:36,720 --> 01:06:40,720
I can't if for some reason I I
knew I had to come here, but now
1212
01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:44,160
I don't know what I need to do.
And I think, I think maybe I'm
1213
01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:46,680
just going crazy.
I know what that feels like.
1214
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:51,400
When does the next ferry leave?
The woman looks up, comes by
1215
01:06:51,400 --> 01:06:53,680
around 5:00.
Oh, it's still in the morning.
1216
01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:57,920
Oh, well, we could.
Maybe this is a crazy idea.
1217
01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:05,560
Why don't we go possibly to the
South and take a just a quick
1218
01:07:05,560 --> 01:07:07,760
look and see if we can find
those pillars?
1219
01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:11,200
I'm kind of curious if those
actually exist, but it's up to
1220
01:07:11,200 --> 01:07:13,000
you Sir.
Are you able to walk?
1221
01:07:13,400 --> 01:07:16,920
I can walk, but I I'm fine to go
to the hospital.
1222
01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:20,560
That's probably a good idea, but
could I just go lay back down
1223
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:23,720
until it's time to go?
Yes, I think at best you rest
1224
01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:27,680
and that we investigate.
Also, did I never mention that I
1225
01:07:27,680 --> 01:07:29,880
found out where the pillars
were?
1226
01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:33,560
No, actually.
Oh my apologies, there is an
1227
01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:38,080
intact stone circle that is to
the north of this location.
1228
01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:41,520
How about weed?
Get your brother back into bed,
1229
01:07:41,520 --> 01:07:46,040
doctor, and see for ourselves.
It is across the Moors.
1230
01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:48,680
It would be across the Moors,
yeah.
1231
01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:52,600
So probably too long of a walk
to get back by 5.
1232
01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:55,280
Yeah, unfortunately it's a
little bit too far to go there
1233
01:07:55,280 --> 01:07:57,440
if you want to get back by 5,
the woman says.
1234
01:07:57,520 --> 01:07:59,080
Well, I'm glad you're taking
care of him.
1235
01:07:59,080 --> 01:08:02,320
I don't really want anybody to
die in my inn.
1236
01:08:03,560 --> 01:08:06,880
But you're going to go meet up
with Jack's wife, Did you?
1237
01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:08,920
Did you want to to see her?
Oh.
1238
01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:11,640
Certainly.
She's still in town, very much
1239
01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:14,000
so.
Well, Jack hasn't been in town
1240
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:18,560
for a little while, but his wife
is, so maybe you could see her.
1241
01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:21,240
She lives in a the little house
up the way and she gives you
1242
01:08:21,640 --> 01:08:24,560
some directions to a house
that'll be the Waring house.
1243
01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:30,640
Well, I see if we have time we
could go see this fine lady.
1244
01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:33,560
And then be back in time to get
this man to a hospital.
1245
01:08:35,279 --> 01:08:37,800
Yes, I'll get Jeffrey tucked in
nice and snug.
1246
01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:40,920
If you'd like, you could make a
first aid check at difficulty 4
1247
01:08:40,920 --> 01:08:44,680
to give him something to to calm
him down to make him feel
1248
01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:46,279
better.
A spot of Brandy.
1249
01:08:46,399 --> 01:08:51,880
Yeah, suppose there's that too.
OK, didn't spend any points on
1250
01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:52,359
that.
No.
1251
01:08:52,359 --> 01:08:54,319
So he is not.
He's not reassured.
1252
01:08:54,319 --> 01:08:56,560
Very good at being stable, very
bad at first aid.
1253
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:01,359
Not a doctor.
Here's a lollipop for you,
1254
01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:03,479
Jeffrey.
I hope it makes you feel better.
1255
01:09:04,720 --> 01:09:08,439
Oh my God.
So it's a short walk away from
1256
01:09:08,439 --> 01:09:11,279
the center of town.
It's a small Gray cottage like
1257
01:09:11,279 --> 01:09:12,800
many of the other ones around
here.
1258
01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:16,000
It's got a short little dirt
driveway away from the main
1259
01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:18,720
road.
As you're walking up, Doctor, in
1260
01:09:18,720 --> 01:09:23,479
particular, you are feeling a
sense of familiarity that the
1261
01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:27,520
bird song you're hearing, the
crunch of gravel, it all feels
1262
01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:31,319
very familiar to you, Helen.
You're also feeling that a
1263
01:09:31,319 --> 01:09:34,279
little bit, mostly like the bird
song seems to be triggering a
1264
01:09:34,279 --> 01:09:38,319
little bit of a memory to you.
I will say, Jonesy, not so much
1265
01:09:38,319 --> 01:09:40,960
you, maybe just because you were
so young the last time you were
1266
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:43,120
here.
And you approach the door, and
1267
01:09:43,120 --> 01:09:49,399
before you knock, Doctor, you
know without a doubt that the
1268
01:09:49,399 --> 01:09:53,479
wallpaper behind that door is
going to be yellow with a Tulip
1269
01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:55,880
design.
Hey, Jonesy.
1270
01:09:57,040 --> 01:09:59,520
Jonesy.
Yes, Doctor, Sorry, it was in my
1271
01:09:59,520 --> 01:10:01,720
head.
What do you how much you want to
1272
01:10:01,720 --> 01:10:04,280
bet that the wallpaper in this
place is yellow with a Tulip
1273
01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:07,160
design?
It's our adopted home, remember?
1274
01:10:07,440 --> 01:10:11,840
Well, you're adopted.
No, no, all all three of us,
1275
01:10:11,840 --> 01:10:16,000
we're all definitely adopted.
A gentleman's bet, How about
1276
01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:17,160
that?
Sure.
1277
01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:21,040
What's that mean?
It means I don't pay anything.
1278
01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:23,640
Well, Ben.
Excellent.
1279
01:10:23,640 --> 01:10:25,240
Let's shake on it.
All right.
1280
01:10:25,440 --> 01:10:27,800
Shookt.
Do you hear some giggling coming
1281
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,400
from inside the house?
Sounds like like a young woman,
1282
01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:33,280
maybe 2 of them.
Well, I'll knock on the door
1283
01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:35,760
extra loud, as is my custom.
Open up.
1284
01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:41,400
You knock on the door and
opening the door is a quiet,
1285
01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:44,240
mousy sort of woman.
She looks like she's in her her
1286
01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:49,560
late 30s maybe, and she smiles,
but is you could tell there's a
1287
01:10:49,560 --> 01:10:51,520
little bit of a concern on her
eyes.
1288
01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:55,640
It says hello, Can I can I help
you?
1289
01:10:56,720 --> 01:10:58,920
Hi, I'm Doctor Michael Loss.
Are we related?
1290
01:10:59,920 --> 01:11:05,160
I no, I'm my name is, is Mary
wearing?
1291
01:11:05,160 --> 01:11:07,440
I don't know any laws, I'm
sorry.
1292
01:11:07,440 --> 01:11:08,800
I think you might be in the
wrong place.
1293
01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:10,520
You know who does know some
laws?
1294
01:11:10,720 --> 01:11:16,440
This guy right here, Jonesy.
Yes, I do know Doctor Laws.
1295
01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:22,400
My name is Tom Jones, and he
tips his hat like gentleman
1296
01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:24,240
extraordinaire.
And your name is Ma'am?
1297
01:11:25,120 --> 01:11:28,560
My name is Mary Wearing.
I'm sorry, are you are you
1298
01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:31,680
selling something?
I'm I'm sorry.
1299
01:11:31,680 --> 01:11:36,320
I, if you, if you need a cup of
tea, I can give you something,
1300
01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:38,280
but I, I'm confused.
What?
1301
01:11:38,800 --> 01:11:41,920
And she actually kind of looks
over at you as well.
1302
01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:44,480
You whose character's name I
forgot, Helen.
1303
01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:48,680
She looks over at you as well.
Helen maybe with a little bit of
1304
01:11:48,680 --> 01:11:51,960
a pleading, seeing if you will
make any of this make sense
1305
01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:54,280
'cause she's extremely confused
by this situation.
1306
01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:57,560
Time to play that all time
classic assurance card.
1307
01:11:57,920 --> 01:12:00,560
Sorry if my companions seem
strange.
1308
01:12:01,480 --> 01:12:07,520
We're in town investigating our
parentage as it were, with this
1309
01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:11,640
as our only clue, and I show her
the picture.
1310
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:18,080
Oh oh.
Yes, I don't suppose you could
1311
01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:21,280
help us?
Oh, you must be Jack's kids from
1312
01:12:21,280 --> 01:12:24,000
his previous marriage.
Sure, why not?
1313
01:12:24,800 --> 01:12:28,000
Oh, come, come in, come in.
I Yeah.
1314
01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:32,080
And as she opens the door more,
you do see behind her the
1315
01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:35,800
wallpaper.
Well, a little bit older is as
1316
01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:38,000
remembered.
Well, John, ZI think you owe me
1317
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:41,920
two handshakes.
All right, I wow, I'm quite
1318
01:12:41,920 --> 01:12:44,120
shocked.
Here you are.
1319
01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:46,800
Here's your first handshake and
I will give you that second
1320
01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:49,040
handshake later.
All right.
1321
01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:52,760
Yeah, we're very adopted.
Doctor Laws, that is going to be
1322
01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:56,040
a Stability 2 test.
I know you're sort of playing it
1323
01:12:56,040 --> 01:12:59,000
off here, but it's also sort of
very weird for you.
1324
01:12:59,600 --> 01:13:02,840
There we go.
OK, so you lose 2 still doing
1325
01:13:02,840 --> 01:13:07,520
fine, but you're bluster about
all of this is is maybe covering
1326
01:13:07,520 --> 01:13:09,040
up something that's a little
weird here.
1327
01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:13,520
She smiles and is pouring you
guys some tea and says yes.
1328
01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:17,960
I guess I don't really know too
much of what to say, but feel
1329
01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:21,680
free to to look around.
Get nostalgic for your own home
1330
01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:24,920
I suppose.
And you do hear some static
1331
01:13:25,080 --> 01:13:28,160
coming from one of the bathrooms
and two girls.
1332
01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:31,200
Oh, is that more Coltrane?
Doctor Law.
1333
01:13:32,040 --> 01:13:34,840
Excuse me ma'am, do you have a
radio in the house?
1334
01:13:35,440 --> 01:13:38,840
Yes, Lisa and Bethany are
playing it too loudly.
1335
01:13:39,080 --> 01:13:43,760
Lisa, Bethany, our guests don't
want to listen to jazz music.
1336
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:47,000
Turn that off.
Oh no, I am a big fan of jazz,
1337
01:13:47,080 --> 01:13:51,040
definitely from America, but
it's not English, It's not too
1338
01:13:51,040 --> 01:13:54,080
English.
Why don't we take a look?
1339
01:13:54,080 --> 01:13:57,440
If it's a little too loud, maybe
the knobs a little broken, I
1340
01:13:57,840 --> 01:13:59,480
will.
I'm a man that knows a little
1341
01:13:59,480 --> 01:14:01,960
bit of mechanical work I can
take.
1342
01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:05,600
Take a look for you.
I guess.
1343
01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:09,560
So.
I sure guess you'd sort of
1344
01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:14,280
motions towards the back and as
you go back there you see 22.
1345
01:14:14,280 --> 01:14:17,320
You could definitely tell they
are twins, two young girls,
1346
01:14:17,400 --> 01:14:21,160
probably about five years old,
5-6 years old, not particularly
1347
01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:23,520
old.
And they are laughing and
1348
01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:26,480
listening to the radio and you
see every once in awhile one of
1349
01:14:26,480 --> 01:14:29,240
them like whispers into the
radio and they both start
1350
01:14:29,240 --> 01:14:31,560
laughing.
I will dance.
1351
01:14:31,680 --> 01:14:34,040
You will dance.
Yes.
1352
01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:37,960
OK to the static.
Yes.
1353
01:14:38,320 --> 01:14:41,240
There's no real music to dance
to, it's just sort of static.
1354
01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:43,640
Yeah, that's a pretty unsettling
picture, right?
1355
01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:47,680
Yeah, actually, as you start
listening to it more, you know,
1356
01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:49,840
to dance to music, you have to
really listen to it.
1357
01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:56,960
It's not quite just static.
There's something to it.
1358
01:14:57,000 --> 01:15:00,680
There's maybe some sort of drum
or something like that, and
1359
01:15:00,680 --> 01:15:05,200
every once in a while you you
think you hear a voice, but you
1360
01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:07,240
can't quite make out what it's
saying.
1361
01:15:07,240 --> 01:15:10,200
Mostly you just hear static.
I don't trust like that.
1362
01:15:10,480 --> 01:15:13,760
Excuse me, you 2 find young
girls?
1363
01:15:13,960 --> 01:15:18,040
My name is Tom Jones, Jonesy as
you can call me.
1364
01:15:18,560 --> 01:15:22,360
Do you mind if you turn that
down just a little bit?
1365
01:15:22,560 --> 01:15:29,280
Just a little bit.
OK, I like your dance, Mr. He's
1366
01:15:29,280 --> 01:15:33,200
silly.
Oh, Doctor Lazius, he's a very
1367
01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:35,320
silly man.
Why don't you go say hi to him
1368
01:15:35,320 --> 01:15:39,080
and dance along while I help
turn down the the music?
1369
01:15:39,440 --> 01:15:41,560
Mommy said we're not supposed to
dance anymore.
1370
01:15:41,760 --> 01:15:44,520
No, she told us not to dance
when we did the other thing.
1371
01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:46,040
It's fine.
We can dance.
1372
01:15:46,040 --> 01:15:48,640
We can dance all we want.
When they go out and they start
1373
01:15:48,640 --> 01:15:50,960
dancing around you in a circle.
Dr. Loss.
1374
01:15:51,280 --> 01:15:54,920
Just remember to leave your
friends behind if they don't
1375
01:15:54,920 --> 01:15:59,240
dance, and if they can't dance,
they ain't no friends of yours.
1376
01:15:59,240 --> 01:16:02,000
And he turns down the music.
No, my friends have to come.
1377
01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:04,280
You, you.
You Can Dance behind me and
1378
01:16:04,440 --> 01:16:08,920
Helena can bring the shovel.
You mean Helen, not Helena?
1379
01:16:09,480 --> 01:16:12,640
Correct.
Speaking of Helen, meanwhile,
1380
01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:16,120
good news to talk to Mary so.
Yeah, this has been a great
1381
01:16:16,120 --> 01:16:19,680
excuse for, like, the doctors
keeping the kids busy and like,
1382
01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:22,960
Josie is messing with the radio.
We kind of leaving you alone
1383
01:16:23,240 --> 01:16:26,560
with her.
So what can you tell us about
1384
01:16:26,560 --> 01:16:28,240
your husband?
About Jack.
1385
01:16:28,760 --> 01:16:34,280
I he's he's not around.
She seems uncomfortable and
1386
01:16:34,280 --> 01:16:37,000
maybe not willing to talk about
it.
1387
01:16:37,360 --> 01:16:40,760
There are a couple ways to read
that, but I suspect he walked
1388
01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:42,440
out.
I'm not saying this in
1389
01:16:42,440 --> 01:16:44,480
character, I'm just making a
personal note.
1390
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:48,160
If you would like, you could try
one of your interpersonal skills
1391
01:16:48,160 --> 01:16:50,160
to try to get her to talk a
little bit more.
1392
01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:53,160
Yeah, reassurance is the old
classic.
1393
01:16:53,240 --> 01:16:55,680
Reassurance is not going to
really work on her though.
1394
01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:57,480
I didn't think so.
Yeah.
1395
01:16:57,880 --> 01:17:00,840
I'd feel like a real asshole if
I tried intimidation.
1396
01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:04,040
You could try it, but yes that
would be an asshole move.
1397
01:17:04,400 --> 01:17:08,200
I think I'm going to go for
flattery.
1398
01:17:08,480 --> 01:17:12,440
OK, I'm going to say well, as it
were, you've you seem to have
1399
01:17:12,440 --> 01:17:15,800
done very well raising these two
girls without him.
1400
01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:18,320
They are 5.
How long have you been raising
1401
01:17:18,320 --> 01:17:20,920
them with without him?
And that's going to do it.
1402
01:17:20,920 --> 01:17:22,160
That's sort of going to unlock
it.
1403
01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:28,560
Jack left before they were born.
I was pregnant one day.
1404
01:17:28,560 --> 01:17:32,520
He, I mean, he'd been having bad
dreams for a while and then one
1405
01:17:32,520 --> 01:17:36,200
day he just just left.
He didn't even pack up his
1406
01:17:36,200 --> 01:17:38,120
stuff.
He didn't tell anyone where he
1407
01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:40,520
was going.
He just disappeared, walked
1408
01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:42,640
away.
Did he ever mention a stone
1409
01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:44,600
circle?
No, I don't.
1410
01:17:45,200 --> 01:17:49,560
He said so many things about his
dreams, but I don't really
1411
01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:51,360
remember anything about a stone
circle.
1412
01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:54,080
Sorry.
I see.
1413
01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:58,840
Thank you.
I know that he, I don't, I don't
1414
01:17:58,840 --> 01:18:02,440
know.
But you know, we make do, make
1415
01:18:02,440 --> 01:18:06,880
do now.
But yes, I'm sorry about Jack.
1416
01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:10,520
He, he's not here.
And your mother, I oh God, she
1417
01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:15,520
sort of catches herself.
Do you know about your your
1418
01:18:15,520 --> 01:18:17,720
mother?
No.
1419
01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:22,520
What is there to tell?
Jack never really told me too
1420
01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:27,640
much, but from what I understand
she she took all of you away,
1421
01:18:28,360 --> 01:18:33,360
put you up for adoption and then
never told Jack where he went.
1422
01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:36,200
They found her dead in a hotel
in London.
1423
01:18:37,240 --> 01:18:39,600
Suicide.
I see I.
1424
01:18:40,640 --> 01:18:43,160
Don't I know what would make a
person do that?
1425
01:18:43,160 --> 01:18:49,080
I think it it really hurt Jack,
but he did his best to move on.
1426
01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:51,480
He was he was a good man.
He was a kind man, a
1427
01:18:51,480 --> 01:18:54,360
knowledgeable man.
He was so well learned.
1428
01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:56,480
He he ran the school here in
town.
1429
01:18:56,480 --> 01:19:01,280
I know he had an office down in
the school and then he just,
1430
01:19:02,080 --> 01:19:05,400
he's just gone, started having
those awful dreams.
1431
01:19:05,640 --> 01:19:08,400
I do want to just cut over to
the little girls that are
1432
01:19:08,520 --> 01:19:10,160
dancing around and laughing with
you.
1433
01:19:10,520 --> 01:19:12,640
Are you doing anything in
particular with the girls?
1434
01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:15,040
Dancing and laughing.
Dancing and laughing.
1435
01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:17,120
Perfect, cool.
Nothing else is.
1436
01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:18,320
Just having a good time with
them.
1437
01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:23,160
Grand old time.
Grand Old Time and Jonesy, do
1438
01:19:23,160 --> 01:19:25,280
you try to mess with the radio
at all or you're just turning it
1439
01:19:25,280 --> 01:19:27,040
down and.
Then yeah, I'm just trying to
1440
01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:30,520
turn it down just enough so I
stop hearing the static.
1441
01:19:30,560 --> 01:19:33,840
It's really getting to me.
Yeah, as you're getting closer
1442
01:19:33,840 --> 01:19:37,920
to the radio, definitely there's
a voice in there that's saying
1443
01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:40,320
something.
Can't quite make it out though.
1444
01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:44,160
Yeah, no, just turns it off.
Just turns it off.
1445
01:19:44,160 --> 01:19:47,560
Yeah, no.
The fact that you are just going
1446
01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:50,560
to turn it off means that you're
only going to suffer a possible
1447
01:19:50,560 --> 01:19:54,400
2 point loss.
OK, damn, that got to me.
1448
01:19:55,240 --> 01:19:58,560
Yeah, heebie jeebies.
Yeah, I don't, I don't really
1449
01:19:58,560 --> 01:20:02,400
know anything else to to tell
you, She says that she sort of
1450
01:20:02,400 --> 01:20:05,000
just sort of mutters and and
looks away.
1451
01:20:05,480 --> 01:20:08,480
Well, I appreciate it.
You truly have been helpful to
1452
01:20:08,480 --> 01:20:10,360
us.
Is there anything else that you
1453
01:20:10,360 --> 01:20:12,360
would like to do around here,
Jonesy?
1454
01:20:12,640 --> 01:20:15,400
I would say everyone is
distracted.
1455
01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:18,560
Oh, yeah.
Oh yeah, Jonesy is going to just
1456
01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:22,480
kind of rub his hands a little
bit and just goes, OK, what can
1457
01:20:22,480 --> 01:20:29,200
we find here today, Jonesy?
No Jonesy after she's been so
1458
01:20:29,200 --> 01:20:31,920
helpful.
Come on.
1459
01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:34,240
Yeah, I'm just going to look
around and see if there's like
1460
01:20:34,360 --> 01:20:37,200
anything that's remotely
expensive.
1461
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:40,520
Nothing too expensive that's out
here.
1462
01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:42,800
You do know that maybe there
could be something valuable in
1463
01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:44,840
the bath.
That also is a very reasonable
1464
01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:46,720
thing to be like, oh, I'm going
to the bathroom.
1465
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:49,480
Like I could sort of sneak in
there and that's like totally
1466
01:20:49,480 --> 01:20:53,160
reasonable something to do.
Oh yes, I'm heading to the water
1467
01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:55,440
closet.
I definitely need to relieve
1468
01:20:55,440 --> 01:20:59,080
myself.
Yeah, you notice that the
1469
01:20:59,080 --> 01:21:01,800
bathroom mirror, it's an older
mirror.
1470
01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:04,040
I suppose it could be worth
something, but it's not like you
1471
01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:06,480
could actually lift the mirror
out and steal it.
1472
01:21:06,480 --> 01:21:08,240
It's maybe.
It's a little too heavy for.
1473
01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:12,400
Jonesy Too heavy for that, a
little too fragile, but there
1474
01:21:12,400 --> 01:21:17,960
are some weird scratches on it
about head level and they seem
1475
01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:22,200
to like sort of form the shape
of a head just like all
1476
01:21:22,200 --> 01:21:25,920
scratched up, maybe with just
like someone's hands or maybe
1477
01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:28,840
even like a small knife.
There's horizontal lines running
1478
01:21:28,840 --> 01:21:32,600
across it, though, and then
there's like some eyes that are
1479
01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:35,960
carved in there with like sort
of XS that sort of look like
1480
01:21:35,960 --> 01:21:39,200
slits.
It seems like somebody was
1481
01:21:39,200 --> 01:21:42,240
looking at their face and doing
something to it.
1482
01:21:42,240 --> 01:21:46,440
It almost looks like he drew a
face or someone gender.
1483
01:21:46,480 --> 01:21:48,200
I don't know.
It's it was probably Jack.
1484
01:21:48,240 --> 01:21:52,080
It was like scratching out a
face, and in particular it was a
1485
01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:59,160
face with two slits for eyes.
Oh, oh, wow, that's slightly
1486
01:21:59,160 --> 01:22:01,680
disturbing.
And so is this one of those
1487
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:04,440
like, is it just like a solid
mirror or is it something that's
1488
01:22:04,440 --> 01:22:07,240
kind of like a little cabinet,
like a like a pill cabinet?
1489
01:22:07,520 --> 01:22:10,440
It is a solid mirror, but there
is a cabinet around here that
1490
01:22:10,440 --> 01:22:12,600
you could you could go through
as well.
1491
01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:13,960
Let's.
Check that.
1492
01:22:14,440 --> 01:22:16,920
There's some small little bits
of medicine here and there, you
1493
01:22:16,920 --> 01:22:21,400
know, like a little.
No, My knowledge of 30s medicine
1494
01:22:21,400 --> 01:22:24,960
is limited, but there's a couple
things you could just pick up
1495
01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:28,400
here real easily.
Jonesy kind of looks at the
1496
01:22:28,480 --> 01:22:32,360
like, thinks about the kids,
thinks about the mother and
1497
01:22:32,360 --> 01:22:36,600
looks at the pills, looks at the
mirror, looks back at the pills,
1498
01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:40,160
looks at the mirror and just
goes I'm going to take one
1499
01:22:40,160 --> 01:22:44,520
bottle, just one, and it's going
to be the one that's the looks
1500
01:22:44,520 --> 01:22:47,560
like the most expensive.
Yeah, you could do that
1501
01:22:47,640 --> 01:22:50,200
actually.
Make a filch roll.
1502
01:22:50,440 --> 01:22:55,120
Oh yeah, absolutely.
Difficulty 4 Would you like to
1503
01:22:55,120 --> 01:22:57,360
spend any points?
I'm gonna spend 4 points.
1504
01:22:57,720 --> 01:23:00,600
I will say this, you don't.
You don't want to spend 4
1505
01:23:00,600 --> 01:23:01,880
points.
That's kind of a waste.
1506
01:23:02,040 --> 01:23:05,000
You could spend 3 points to get
a four because you'll roll.
1507
01:23:05,000 --> 01:23:07,240
I'll spend 3 points.
Yeah, perfect.
1508
01:23:07,600 --> 01:23:09,840
OK, so then that's an automatic
success.
1509
01:23:10,320 --> 01:23:13,200
Perfect.
You not only find a nice little
1510
01:23:13,200 --> 01:23:14,680
bottle of pills, but also as
you're going through, it's like,
1511
01:23:15,040 --> 01:23:17,400
oh, there's like a man shaving
razor in here.
1512
01:23:17,400 --> 01:23:20,040
It's some shaving cream that's
like a little old that you're
1513
01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:21,680
also like, oh, I could totally
take this.
1514
01:23:21,680 --> 01:23:23,120
Nobody's going to be using this
either.
1515
01:23:23,760 --> 01:23:26,280
A gentleman needs a clean shaven
face.
1516
01:23:26,440 --> 01:23:30,000
Yeah, so I'm taking that razor.
Yeah, You have a, you know, a
1517
01:23:30,040 --> 01:23:32,120
straight razor.
Nothing could be bad about that.
1518
01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:34,880
The girls are sort of laughing
along.
1519
01:23:34,880 --> 01:23:37,720
It's singing with you, doctor.
And they say, like, do you know
1520
01:23:37,720 --> 01:23:39,760
the song?
Could you sing the song?
1521
01:23:40,840 --> 01:23:42,760
No, no, I don't understand
music, really.
1522
01:23:43,200 --> 01:23:46,280
Oh, OK, OK.
We have to sing them down and
1523
01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:48,120
then they get up and then
everything's great.
1524
01:23:48,320 --> 01:23:50,160
I like your funny words,
children.
1525
01:23:51,880 --> 01:23:54,160
We like you too.
Are we friends?
1526
01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:57,800
We are friends.
They both sort of give you a hug
1527
01:23:57,800 --> 01:24:01,440
around the leg.
Yeah, I'm popular with children.
1528
01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:05,800
Jonesy kind of walks out and
goes, wow, he's, he's a good
1529
01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:07,560
doctor.
He's a pretty friendly guy.
1530
01:24:07,920 --> 01:24:10,600
Yeah, you're a pediatrician.
I don't know what that word
1531
01:24:10,600 --> 01:24:12,600
means.
Kid doctor ah.
1532
01:24:13,600 --> 01:24:16,760
There we are, yes.
Is he one of those?
1533
01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:20,280
Yeah, I think that makes sense.
Yeah, that that would make you
1534
01:24:20,280 --> 01:24:22,400
more adorable.
Your your pediatrician.
1535
01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:24,880
That's why you had a lollipop to
give to your brother.
1536
01:24:24,920 --> 01:24:28,480
Exactly.
All right.
1537
01:24:29,160 --> 01:24:33,080
And Helen, the tea has been sort
of set out for everyone here,
1538
01:24:33,080 --> 01:24:36,680
but no, people seem to not be
drinking it except for perhaps
1539
01:24:36,720 --> 01:24:38,840
you.
And you do sort of get the
1540
01:24:38,960 --> 01:24:43,960
impression that, well, Mary's
being nice to you guys, but
1541
01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:47,680
isn't quite sure what to do
about what's happening here.
1542
01:24:48,240 --> 01:24:50,560
I mean, who?
Who would?
1543
01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:52,920
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't.
1544
01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:58,560
There's nothing I else I know
about Jack really nothing else
1545
01:24:58,560 --> 01:25:04,000
to say.
But yeah, you can stay here as
1546
01:25:04,360 --> 01:25:06,760
if you need to for a little
while, but we don't really have
1547
01:25:06,760 --> 01:25:10,960
a place for you to sleep.
No, that's quite all right.
1548
01:25:11,240 --> 01:25:14,280
We need to be getting back to
the ferry by 5:00 anyway.
1549
01:25:14,400 --> 01:25:16,040
Oh.
My brother needs to go to the
1550
01:25:16,040 --> 01:25:18,880
hospital.
Oh, no, that does make sense.
1551
01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:21,640
He he had four children, right?
Oh, I'm sorry.
1552
01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:23,920
Your brother's not feeling well.
What?
1553
01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:25,880
What's wrong with it?
Well, he doesn't have a pulse,
1554
01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:27,640
and it seems like his skin's
about to fall off.
1555
01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:32,600
I'm sorry, what?
Helen did not know that this was
1556
01:25:32,720 --> 01:25:35,400
the extent of the.
Yeah, yeah.
1557
01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:37,480
Helen just knew that he was
feeling bad.
1558
01:25:37,600 --> 01:25:39,640
Actually, Helen, you hearing
that?
1559
01:25:39,640 --> 01:25:41,280
And Jonesy, do you hear that as
well?
1560
01:25:41,840 --> 01:25:44,520
Oh yeah, no, he spit out his tea
as soon as he heard that.
1561
01:25:44,920 --> 01:25:48,840
All right finding out that he is
not you know alive or at least
1562
01:25:48,840 --> 01:25:52,480
having the traditional ways of
being alive 3 point stability
1563
01:25:52,480 --> 01:25:57,160
loss take a check only three it
was five for his brother 3 for
1564
01:25:57,160 --> 01:26:00,760
you guys, although I guess you
are he is your brother sort of
1565
01:26:01,040 --> 01:26:04,520
but.
So I'm going to add a point
1566
01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:08,960
because like at this point, if
I, if I get hit with anything,
1567
01:26:08,960 --> 01:26:11,200
I'm out.
So I might as well try and avoid
1568
01:26:11,200 --> 01:26:14,120
that.
OK, not out, but like, yeah.
1569
01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:17,000
Oh, and of course, the one time
I do, I don't need to.
1570
01:26:19,880 --> 01:26:22,120
Can we just have a quick
stability check going down the
1571
01:26:22,120 --> 01:26:23,200
line?
How's everybody doing?
1572
01:26:25,920 --> 01:26:29,920
I have one stability.
Doctor's feeling fine with four.
1573
01:26:30,200 --> 01:26:34,600
Yeah, I'm down to three, OK.
Helen is anything away from
1574
01:26:34,600 --> 01:26:39,920
losing her God damn mind.
You see that definitely hearing
1575
01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:43,680
that, the sort of sick not
having a pulse seems to be.
1576
01:26:43,760 --> 01:26:46,760
You see, there's maybe a little
bit of a reaction from Mary at
1577
01:26:46,760 --> 01:26:49,040
first, but then she sort of
shakes her head, says, well, you
1578
01:26:49,040 --> 01:26:51,480
should probably take care of
your brother.
1579
01:26:51,760 --> 01:26:53,760
Oh, he'll be fine.
We see this sort of thing all
1580
01:26:53,760 --> 01:26:57,040
the time, I think.
Oh, oh, OK.
1581
01:26:58,400 --> 01:27:03,640
Well, good morning.
Yeah, let's thank you for the
1582
01:27:03,640 --> 01:27:06,440
tea ma'am.
I'm Jones.
1583
01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:11,800
Jonesy puts down his teacup and
tips his hat and says that he
1584
01:27:11,800 --> 01:27:14,360
looks at the 2 little girls
ladies and then he goes.
1585
01:27:14,560 --> 01:27:17,800
Shall we get to the fairy?
Let us away.
1586
01:27:18,360 --> 01:27:21,040
Indeed, though at some point I
would like to check out the
1587
01:27:21,040 --> 01:27:23,520
school, take a look through his
old office.
1588
01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:25,200
There's time to check the
school, probably.
1589
01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:28,840
OK, I'll give his office a once
over if they haven't, you know,
1590
01:27:29,240 --> 01:27:31,560
put somebody else in it or
something like that.
1591
01:27:31,560 --> 01:27:34,320
Does anybody have the ability
assess honesty?
1592
01:27:34,480 --> 01:27:36,040
I have two points.
In I do.
1593
01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:38,680
Might want to use it is all I'm
saying.
1594
01:27:39,160 --> 01:27:41,400
Last time I'm going to try to
remind you about this, but it
1595
01:27:41,400 --> 01:27:44,200
might be a a thing to consider
using.
1596
01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:46,720
I don't know that I've heard
anything that I need to assess
1597
01:27:46,800 --> 01:27:48,560
honesty for.
OK, then I guess we're good.
1598
01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:51,040
No, I have.
If you're ever talking to
1599
01:27:51,040 --> 01:27:53,760
somebody, remember you can use
assess honesty.
1600
01:27:54,040 --> 01:27:56,160
Probably most of the time people
will be telling you the truth,
1601
01:27:56,160 --> 01:27:58,040
but it's something to to
remember and consider.
1602
01:27:58,240 --> 01:27:59,720
Well, humanity is essentially
good.
1603
01:27:59,720 --> 01:28:02,360
No one would ever lie to me.
Yes, of course.
1604
01:28:03,400 --> 01:28:04,800
Forget.
I think it said that doctor.
1605
01:28:04,920 --> 01:28:09,280
She was a little too quick to
accept your assessment of your
1606
01:28:09,280 --> 01:28:10,840
brother.
Well, I'm a professional.
1607
01:28:10,840 --> 01:28:11,880
I know what I'm talking about,
no?
1608
01:28:12,120 --> 01:28:16,520
No, no, we, we, me and me and
Jonesy reacted like people.
1609
01:28:16,680 --> 01:28:19,160
We were stunned.
She barely reacted.
1610
01:28:19,560 --> 01:28:21,640
And you're supposed to react to
these things.
1611
01:28:22,560 --> 01:28:26,120
Are you a sociopath?
I don't know what that word
1612
01:28:26,120 --> 01:28:27,720
means.
It's fine, doesn't matter
1613
01:28:27,880 --> 01:28:30,000
anyway.
Yeah, she seemed to be reacting
1614
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:33,080
a little weirdly when she didn't
quite react the same way as
1615
01:28:33,080 --> 01:28:34,400
everybody else when she said
that.
1616
01:28:35,240 --> 01:28:38,480
Well, if you listen to static
all day, it does kind of get to
1617
01:28:38,480 --> 01:28:40,360
you.
There's something she's not
1618
01:28:40,360 --> 01:28:43,080
telling us, and I don't know
what it is.
1619
01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:44,960
I suppose that's why she didn't
tell us.
1620
01:28:45,360 --> 01:28:49,760
Yeah, yeah, there's definitely
something about in particular,
1621
01:28:50,000 --> 01:28:52,240
you know, talking about that and
talking about Jack.
1622
01:28:52,240 --> 01:28:55,040
It seems like she's trying to
avoid saying something about
1623
01:28:55,040 --> 01:28:58,800
Jack, but not because she's like
trying to keep some sort of
1624
01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:02,680
terrible secret or anything.
It's more that she's like, Nah,
1625
01:29:02,680 --> 01:29:04,840
I don't need to say that.
That's that's nothing.
1626
01:29:04,840 --> 01:29:07,160
That's ridiculous.
Sort of a thought in her head.
1627
01:29:07,160 --> 01:29:08,480
That's sort of the vibe you're
getting.
1628
01:29:08,480 --> 01:29:10,960
It's like she she was going to
say something, but then she
1629
01:29:10,960 --> 01:29:12,760
thought better of it.
Not because she's trying to keep
1630
01:29:12,760 --> 01:29:15,720
a secret, but just because she's
like, it's just a bunch of
1631
01:29:15,720 --> 01:29:16,720
strangers.
It doesn't matter.
1632
01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:18,720
I already got all the
information I could out of
1633
01:29:18,720 --> 01:29:23,520
flattery, so OK, somebody else
wants to double back and ask and
1634
01:29:23,520 --> 01:29:26,320
try questioning her.
Or you could head to the
1635
01:29:26,320 --> 01:29:30,600
schoolhouse, or back to the inn,
or I guess down to the town
1636
01:29:30,600 --> 01:29:34,200
ruins that Josie was interested
in, or whatever you want to do.
1637
01:29:34,360 --> 01:29:38,000
You probably have time to do one
more thing before the ferry
1638
01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:39,880
arrives.
We have time to do three more
1639
01:29:39,880 --> 01:29:42,360
things if we split up.
That's also true.
1640
01:29:42,880 --> 01:29:48,840
We went on the patrol before and
I don't sense anything troubling
1641
01:29:49,040 --> 01:29:52,480
yet, but.
Yeah, nothing scary or troubling
1642
01:29:52,480 --> 01:29:55,200
at all going.
On nothing just yet.
1643
01:29:55,200 --> 01:29:59,200
Nothing just yet.
I would like to at least take a
1644
01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:01,360
look at what Tiny was talking
about.
1645
01:30:01,360 --> 01:30:05,800
That might be just a a destroyed
building, but sometimes you can
1646
01:30:05,800 --> 01:30:08,960
find some of the greatest things
in the rubble.
1647
01:30:09,560 --> 01:30:12,160
But I am OK at going to the
school with you.
1648
01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:16,280
Well, I'll accompany what
appears to be our dear sister to
1649
01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:17,640
the school all.
Right.
1650
01:30:17,640 --> 01:30:21,200
You're a sister.
No, our sister, we're adopted.
1651
01:30:21,880 --> 01:30:25,520
You're adopted, mind you.
Yes, and you are too.
1652
01:30:25,960 --> 01:30:27,920
You're our brother.
Let him come to it in his own
1653
01:30:27,920 --> 01:30:31,720
time, Doctor.
I, I I cannot as a gentleman,
1654
01:30:32,200 --> 01:30:36,720
say that you, we are brother in
spirit, but not in physical
1655
01:30:36,720 --> 01:30:38,080
flesh.
My we're.
1656
01:30:38,080 --> 01:30:39,840
All part of the brotherhood of
man, you know.
1657
01:30:42,920 --> 01:30:44,200
I'm going to check out the
school.
1658
01:30:44,840 --> 01:30:48,120
OK, then I will accompany the
fine Madam.
1659
01:30:48,760 --> 01:30:52,400
Not splitting up a team.
OK, so the school, the old
1660
01:30:52,400 --> 01:30:55,080
school house, it's kind of hard
to notice.
1661
01:30:55,080 --> 01:30:57,520
It's sort of an unremarkable
disused building.
1662
01:30:57,720 --> 01:31:00,000
The only reason you know where
it is is because it was pointed
1663
01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:02,280
out to you.
It's just a tiny little
1664
01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:04,640
Victorian school.
It even has like separate
1665
01:31:04,640 --> 01:31:07,160
entrances for girls and boys.
But then when you get inside,
1666
01:31:07,160 --> 01:31:10,280
it's the sort of one big
classroom though, though there
1667
01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:13,040
is a small office attached.
As you approach, you find the
1668
01:31:13,080 --> 01:31:17,160
door is not locked.
The whole thing is very dusty.
1669
01:31:17,280 --> 01:31:19,720
It's almost like people just
disappeared.
1670
01:31:19,720 --> 01:31:22,440
It's like, you know, they talk
about like with Chernobyl, like
1671
01:31:22,440 --> 01:31:24,200
if you went around there, it
just looks like everyone
1672
01:31:24,200 --> 01:31:25,800
disappeared and left everything
there.
1673
01:31:25,960 --> 01:31:29,160
It's kind of like that.
There's a quadratic equation
1674
01:31:29,280 --> 01:31:32,520
written on the board.
There are like some notebooks
1675
01:31:32,520 --> 01:31:37,000
and stuff in the desks, but
there are cobwebs covering
1676
01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:40,360
everything.
There are weeds and Moss growing
1677
01:31:40,680 --> 01:31:42,680
through the flagstones on the
floor.
1678
01:31:42,880 --> 01:31:47,080
And the whole place, at least
for you, Doctor, it feels
1679
01:31:47,080 --> 01:31:50,560
familiar.
Ah yes, the old school house.
1680
01:31:50,800 --> 01:31:52,800
I probably learned some things
here all.
1681
01:31:53,120 --> 01:31:55,920
Right.
Actually, as you're looking, you
1682
01:31:55,920 --> 01:31:58,840
know which one of these desks
was your desk?
1683
01:31:59,360 --> 01:32:00,120
You remember.
Oh.
1684
01:32:00,760 --> 01:32:02,440
I better carve my initials in
there do.
1685
01:32:03,320 --> 01:32:05,400
You want to take a look.
Of course, yes.
1686
01:32:06,120 --> 01:32:11,240
You absolutely did carve your
first name, or at least somebody
1687
01:32:11,240 --> 01:32:15,880
carved that name in a childish
version of your handwriting. 3
1688
01:32:15,880 --> 01:32:17,840
point loss.
Oh.
1689
01:32:18,600 --> 01:32:21,400
Yeah, this is all you know.
This is sort of freaking you out
1690
01:32:21,400 --> 01:32:25,640
a little bit.
You were definitely here before.
1691
01:32:26,400 --> 01:32:28,040
That's not the right last
initial.
1692
01:32:28,600 --> 01:32:30,720
Yeah.
It's not the right last initial
1693
01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:36,160
or I mean it's AW wearing.
What would you like to do in
1694
01:32:36,160 --> 01:32:38,600
here?
Jones is going to take a look at
1695
01:32:38,600 --> 01:32:40,400
the teacher's desk.
OK.
1696
01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:44,840
Mostly there's just like a bunch
of exercise books that are
1697
01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:46,600
written there.
It seems like he was maybe in
1698
01:32:46,600 --> 01:32:49,520
the middle of grading, like,
children's essays.
1699
01:32:49,760 --> 01:32:51,760
And as you're going through it,
it seems like they're writing
1700
01:32:51,760 --> 01:32:55,360
about like, local folklore.
At least some of them seem to
1701
01:32:55,360 --> 01:32:57,880
have been writing about that.
And as you're going through it,
1702
01:32:57,920 --> 01:33:01,400
that seems to be what it is.
You would need to maybe have
1703
01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:04,840
some sort of ability to go
through a bunch of books and
1704
01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:08,840
like use a collection of books
to maybe get this information.
1705
01:33:09,280 --> 01:33:12,280
I'm gonna use a library use.
There it is.
1706
01:33:12,280 --> 01:33:16,560
Library use.
Yes, you start going through all
1707
01:33:16,560 --> 01:33:20,040
of them.
One of the essays catches your
1708
01:33:20,040 --> 01:33:25,800
attention because it seems to be
Well, I'm going to share that
1709
01:33:25,880 --> 01:33:30,120
with you right now.
Class I have a essay for
1710
01:33:30,120 --> 01:33:33,440
everyone to listen to.
Take your seats please.
1711
01:33:33,920 --> 01:33:37,960
Once Upon a time there was a
little girl who lived in
1712
01:33:37,960 --> 01:33:44,160
Manistee, and one day she found
a Gray slimming hand reaching
1713
01:33:44,160 --> 01:33:47,600
through the earth.
She did not know what to do.
1714
01:33:48,520 --> 01:33:51,360
What is this?
She asked, but her mommy and
1715
01:33:51,360 --> 01:33:54,720
daddy did not know.
The next day when she was
1716
01:33:54,720 --> 01:33:58,600
walking through the woods, she
saw a monster and it was all
1717
01:33:58,600 --> 01:34:01,080
wormy and slimy and smiled at
her.
1718
01:34:01,920 --> 01:34:06,200
The little girl went home, told
her mommy and daddy, but they
1719
01:34:06,200 --> 01:34:09,840
did not believe her.
Then wormy slimy monsters under
1720
01:34:09,840 --> 01:34:14,160
the earth came up, and that
night they ate the little girl
1721
01:34:14,160 --> 01:34:18,560
up and their mommy and daddy and
they tore the house up and ate
1722
01:34:18,560 --> 01:34:26,680
its bricks.
Not what I was expecting for a
1723
01:34:26,680 --> 01:34:29,200
child story.
Slightly scary.
1724
01:34:29,720 --> 01:34:32,960
I'm going to put this down and
kind of walk outside.
1725
01:34:33,920 --> 01:34:35,360
Is there anything else on the
paper?
1726
01:34:35,680 --> 01:34:38,640
Yeah, he just kind of puts the
the paper down right next to
1727
01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:40,600
Helen.
That might be some inspiration
1728
01:34:40,600 --> 01:34:41,960
for you.
Oh.
1729
01:34:43,320 --> 01:34:46,840
Yeah, the child has drawn a
little picture of a house with
1730
01:34:46,840 --> 01:34:49,480
somebody inside of it.
Helen, how would you describe
1731
01:34:49,480 --> 01:34:51,200
that thing that's coming towards
the house?
1732
01:34:52,040 --> 01:34:57,160
It's very basic, but it appears
almost Serpentine and it has two
1733
01:34:57,160 --> 01:34:59,880
arms with fingers that are way
too long.
1734
01:35:00,440 --> 01:35:04,640
Yeah, like a kind of monster.
Kind of a wormy monster.
1735
01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:07,000
Kind of a wormy monster.
Yeah, there's a little worm
1736
01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:09,600
monster.
Yeah, not a fan of that.
1737
01:35:10,320 --> 01:35:12,480
Wait, Helen, wouldn't you be a
fan of that?
1738
01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:19,400
Helen's having a rough day.
Yeah, I'd be more into this if
1739
01:35:20,440 --> 01:35:24,560
checks notes my whole life
hadn't been upended two hours
1740
01:35:24,560 --> 01:35:27,800
ago.
Because we're adopted.
1741
01:35:28,400 --> 01:35:33,560
Among you. 2 are adopted.
You say from outside as.
1742
01:35:33,680 --> 01:35:37,200
You say exactly outside.
We'll tell him when he's older.
1743
01:35:37,360 --> 01:35:40,040
By the way, Jonesy, when you
stepped outside, there is sort
1744
01:35:40,040 --> 01:35:42,240
of an angry looking farmer who
walks up.
1745
01:35:42,240 --> 01:35:45,000
Dude says boy, what are you
doing here?
1746
01:35:46,840 --> 01:35:51,520
I've was accompanied with my
friends to take a look at the
1747
01:35:51,520 --> 01:35:55,160
school and I'm going to use
flattery to calm down the
1748
01:35:55,160 --> 01:35:58,640
situation.
How are you flattering this
1749
01:35:58,800 --> 01:36:03,880
angry farmer?
You look quite in physical shape
1750
01:36:03,880 --> 01:36:06,160
my friend.
What have you been doing with
1751
01:36:06,160 --> 01:36:09,040
your life?
It looks you look fantastic,
1752
01:36:09,600 --> 01:36:11,920
like I'm just changing the
subject immediately.
1753
01:36:11,920 --> 01:36:14,200
I'm looking for my pig.
Oh, your pig.
1754
01:36:14,640 --> 01:36:17,080
Did you take my pig?
No.
1755
01:36:17,480 --> 01:36:20,000
Is your what?
What does your pig look like?
1756
01:36:20,520 --> 01:36:23,800
It's a pig.
Is it a prize pig?
1757
01:36:23,800 --> 01:36:27,240
Is it a fair pig?
Is it over ��100?
1758
01:36:28,720 --> 01:36:32,120
No, it's just a it's one of the
youngest pigs that we had.
1759
01:36:32,120 --> 01:36:35,680
It was a young, small pig.
I don't know if there's a pig
1760
01:36:35,680 --> 01:36:38,440
rustler around here.
You're not rustling pigs, are
1761
01:36:38,480 --> 01:36:43,200
you, You bum.
I I Sir, I am a hobo, not a bum,
1762
01:36:43,240 --> 01:36:46,880
and I don't rustle pigs.
Oh my God, did he just admit it?
1763
01:36:47,960 --> 01:36:51,160
Oh my God, he admit it.
Gentlemen.
1764
01:36:51,160 --> 01:36:53,560
Gentlemen.
Stability gain.
1765
01:36:56,160 --> 01:36:59,840
Fine, if you were to be stealing
pigs, you would have stolen more
1766
01:36:59,840 --> 01:37:02,840
than the smallest one.
I also don't see a pig around
1767
01:37:02,960 --> 01:37:06,800
you, you keep an eye out.
I guess what's the pig's name so
1768
01:37:06,800 --> 01:37:09,320
I can call its name?
It's a pig.
1769
01:37:09,320 --> 01:37:14,120
It doesn't have a name.
But, well, I've heard Sue Mary,
1770
01:37:14,120 --> 01:37:18,000
Mary Sue Sue, you know?
Sure, sure.
1771
01:37:18,040 --> 01:37:19,960
Yeah, whatever.
Just look for my pig.
1772
01:37:20,520 --> 01:37:22,920
OK, I will keep an eye out, my
friend.
1773
01:37:24,160 --> 01:37:25,960
And Jonesy pulls out a
handkerchief.
1774
01:37:26,880 --> 01:37:30,760
Oh sweet God.
Yeah, you're being accused of
1775
01:37:30,760 --> 01:37:35,280
crimes, Jonesy.
That was close.
1776
01:37:35,600 --> 01:37:38,160
Anyway, back inside the
schoolhouse, anything else you
1777
01:37:38,160 --> 01:37:40,600
want to look for?
I don't know how much is here,
1778
01:37:40,600 --> 01:37:44,240
but there's maybe some stuff.
The desk, His desk was checked,
1779
01:37:44,240 --> 01:37:46,480
right?
Oh yeah, I definitely want to
1780
01:37:46,480 --> 01:37:48,440
check that.
Does he have an office in here?
1781
01:37:48,440 --> 01:37:50,920
She mentioned An office.
I want to give that a look
1782
01:37:50,920 --> 01:37:53,520
through.
As you are going through the
1783
01:37:53,520 --> 01:37:58,120
office, you do find several of
these exercise books, children's
1784
01:37:58,120 --> 01:38:02,640
stuff that's been left there.
Again, they seem to all be
1785
01:38:02,640 --> 01:38:06,040
written about local folklore.
They must have been having to
1786
01:38:06,040 --> 01:38:08,800
like, research local folklore
and write some stuff about it.
1787
01:38:09,040 --> 01:38:12,120
And you see a lot of them seem
to have been writing about
1788
01:38:12,120 --> 01:38:15,040
Castle Rig's stone circle.
Not surprisingly, it's a, it's a
1789
01:38:15,040 --> 01:38:17,920
pretty recent spot.
It said it was like a place
1790
01:38:18,200 --> 01:38:22,320
frequented by witches who buried
people alive.
1791
01:38:22,520 --> 01:38:24,800
They did human sacrifice.
They would cut them and then
1792
01:38:24,800 --> 01:38:27,200
bury them alive.
That feels important.
1793
01:38:28,120 --> 01:38:30,080
Yes, is that?
Going to ring a bell?
1794
01:38:30,520 --> 01:38:34,280
But besides that, it does look
like maybe there were some
1795
01:38:34,280 --> 01:38:37,280
things that were taken away.
I know it was said that Jack
1796
01:38:37,280 --> 01:38:40,080
disappeared in the night, but
you could tell that like there's
1797
01:38:40,080 --> 01:38:43,080
one drawer that's empty that he
he might have taken stuff from
1798
01:38:43,840 --> 01:38:46,800
so.
Jonesy walks in and just goes.
1799
01:38:47,320 --> 01:38:49,720
Farmer just accused me of
stealing his pig.
1800
01:38:51,160 --> 01:38:53,000
Jonesy, you can't be stealing
people's pigs.
1801
01:38:53,520 --> 01:38:55,080
Do I look like I could steal a
pig?
1802
01:38:55,760 --> 01:38:57,400
Yeah, absolutely, if you set
your mind to it.
1803
01:38:58,320 --> 01:39:00,640
Thank you, it's actually quite
charming you.
1804
01:39:01,240 --> 01:39:02,520
Gotta believe in yourself,
Jonesy.
1805
01:39:03,440 --> 01:39:06,000
Thank you.
Well, I I'm not a thief.
1806
01:39:06,440 --> 01:39:08,600
Not a thief.
I'm a gentleman.
1807
01:39:10,960 --> 01:39:13,120
And can we can we can we leave?
Is this.
1808
01:39:13,320 --> 01:39:16,240
Yeah.
You guys need to go or I'm still
1809
01:39:16,240 --> 01:39:19,360
looking around.
Well, I just learned something
1810
01:39:19,360 --> 01:39:21,800
interesting.
Helen shares what she had least
1811
01:39:21,840 --> 01:39:23,600
recently learned.
That was interesting.
1812
01:39:25,480 --> 01:39:27,760
Yes.
Yeah.
1813
01:39:27,880 --> 01:39:29,920
The other thing, Helen, is as
you were looking, there were a
1814
01:39:29,920 --> 01:39:34,240
couple other books that talked
about Low Manesty, which was the
1815
01:39:34,240 --> 01:39:39,080
village that was there before.
Well, before we unpack all that,
1816
01:39:39,520 --> 01:39:41,400
we should probably get your
brother to a hospital.
1817
01:39:41,760 --> 01:39:46,240
Absolutely.
Assuming they can help him now
1818
01:39:46,240 --> 01:39:47,600
that I've learned what I've
learned.
1819
01:39:48,520 --> 01:39:50,000
Oh, it'll be fine.
They'll hook him up with some
1820
01:39:50,000 --> 01:39:51,400
heroin.
He'll be fine within the
1821
01:39:51,400 --> 01:39:54,720
fortnight.
So you go back to the inn.
1822
01:39:55,040 --> 01:39:57,960
He's still looking real shitty.
Jeffrey, have you been eating
1823
01:39:57,960 --> 01:39:59,560
your lollipop?
I had it.
1824
01:40:00,520 --> 01:40:04,960
I was delicious.
At least I remember they were
1825
01:40:04,960 --> 01:40:07,440
delicious.
Didn't really taste like much.
1826
01:40:08,280 --> 01:40:13,640
Oh, that's not a good sign.
Yeah, I are we going to go?
1827
01:40:14,600 --> 01:40:16,560
Yes, we're going to get you to
the hospital, Jeffrey.
1828
01:40:16,760 --> 01:40:18,240
All right.
Yeah, Get on my shoulders.
1829
01:40:19,960 --> 01:40:21,760
He sort of is able to walk a
little bit.
1830
01:40:21,760 --> 01:40:23,440
He's not going to jump on his
shoulders.
1831
01:40:23,600 --> 01:40:26,600
He is your Big Brother.
I was thinking firemans carry
1832
01:40:26,600 --> 01:40:28,480
but all of a sudden it became a
piggyback ride.
1833
01:40:28,960 --> 01:40:31,360
I don't think a piggyback rod is
going to work here.
1834
01:40:31,720 --> 01:40:33,040
He's still able to walk a
little.
1835
01:40:33,400 --> 01:40:35,600
So at the very least we can
support him.
1836
01:40:35,920 --> 01:40:40,200
Yeah, to the ferry.
Yeah, you do see that there are
1837
01:40:40,240 --> 01:40:43,480
in the inn as it's getting a
little later, a couple of people
1838
01:40:43,480 --> 01:40:46,280
are getting done with their work
a little early, and there are
1839
01:40:46,280 --> 01:40:50,840
people dancing as the radio is
playing static very loudly,
1840
01:40:51,080 --> 01:40:52,720
almost drowning out everything
else.
1841
01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:55,600
Yeah, more of that Coltrane.
Yeah, Can we get to the ferry?
1842
01:40:56,000 --> 01:40:59,480
I don't want to listen to this.
Yes, I am choosing to focus on
1843
01:40:59,480 --> 01:41:03,280
anything else as we keep moving.
So, Jeffrey, it turns out we
1844
01:41:03,280 --> 01:41:05,400
actually are adopted and these
are your siblings.
1845
01:41:05,800 --> 01:41:10,200
Oh, strange.
I well, we'll deal with that
1846
01:41:10,200 --> 01:41:10,880
later.
I guess.
1847
01:41:11,480 --> 01:41:14,080
I'm, I guess I'm Jeffrey.
Hello.
1848
01:41:14,920 --> 01:41:19,600
Hi, Helen.
Nice to meet you, He offers to
1849
01:41:19,600 --> 01:41:22,120
you to shake it, you know.
He offers his hand to shake.
1850
01:41:22,560 --> 01:41:27,680
Helen takes it and then quickly
moves to supporting, supporting
1851
01:41:27,680 --> 01:41:29,480
him on her shoulder.
Yeah, we can.
1852
01:41:29,680 --> 01:41:32,720
We can.
We can bond his siblings once
1853
01:41:33,120 --> 01:41:37,080
you're better.
Yeah, his hand is clammy and
1854
01:41:37,760 --> 01:41:41,640
yeah, and the skin feels almost
loose, like a glove.
1855
01:41:41,920 --> 01:41:45,920
Charming.
Tom Jones, no relation.
1856
01:41:46,040 --> 01:41:50,680
You 2 are adopted.
He's still processing it.
1857
01:41:51,280 --> 01:41:56,520
Okay, okay, you move towards the
fairy and it's full of people.
1858
01:41:56,520 --> 01:41:59,440
Actually, when it when it's
coming through, there must have
1859
01:41:59,440 --> 01:42:01,760
been something else going on in
one of the southern towns or
1860
01:42:01,760 --> 01:42:04,680
whatever.
But as it stops, you get kind of
1861
01:42:04,680 --> 01:42:08,440
a glare from the guy as you're
calling on a person who could
1862
01:42:08,440 --> 01:42:13,120
barely walk.
I don't want any sick people on
1863
01:42:13,120 --> 01:42:14,680
on the boat.
What are what are we doing here?
1864
01:42:15,160 --> 01:42:18,360
Oh, I will use some reassurance.
What he's got isn't catching
1865
01:42:18,360 --> 01:42:19,920
friends.
We just need to get him to a
1866
01:42:19,920 --> 01:42:23,120
hospital, get him looked after.
What are you, a doctor?
1867
01:42:23,120 --> 01:42:26,120
How do you know this?
Yes, I am, in fact, a doctor.
1868
01:42:26,120 --> 01:42:29,120
Doctor Michael Laws.
Oh, do you have like a card or
1869
01:42:29,120 --> 01:42:30,240
something?
Definitely.
1870
01:42:30,720 --> 01:42:35,040
OK.
Oh, OK, doctor, I guess I'm
1871
01:42:35,040 --> 01:42:38,160
sorry.
It's kind of full today.
1872
01:42:38,400 --> 01:42:42,400
I think you and your your
patient, but I'm sorry the other
1873
01:42:42,400 --> 01:42:43,680
two I don't think they could fit
on.
1874
01:42:43,800 --> 01:42:45,720
Well, that works for me, if it
works for them.
1875
01:42:45,720 --> 01:42:47,760
That's fine, we can check up at
the end.
1876
01:42:48,160 --> 01:42:51,840
We're we're staying here.
Wait.
1877
01:42:53,760 --> 01:42:58,160
I have found no signs of any of
my compatriots.
1878
01:42:59,160 --> 01:43:01,240
Excuse me.
There has to be some room.
1879
01:43:01,240 --> 01:43:04,360
Can I sit in in the storage box
or?
1880
01:43:05,480 --> 01:43:09,000
Dad, just get off this island.
This is not you're not on an
1881
01:43:09,040 --> 01:43:10,720
island.
You could take the road.
1882
01:43:10,720 --> 01:43:14,600
Back I am so bad with the land
geography.
1883
01:43:14,600 --> 01:43:17,480
Sorry.
OK, How far is the road?
1884
01:43:18,000 --> 01:43:20,160
What am IA map?
Get out of here you bum.
1885
01:43:20,960 --> 01:43:23,280
I'm a gentleman.
All right?
1886
01:43:23,400 --> 01:43:25,640
Fine.
Stay.
1887
01:43:25,920 --> 01:43:29,200
I mean you could try to make
like a interpersonal like spend
1888
01:43:29,560 --> 01:43:31,960
to try to get onto the boat
here, but they are full.
1889
01:43:32,480 --> 01:43:35,760
I used all of my good stuff and
I'm not going to intimidate
1890
01:43:35,760 --> 01:43:38,040
someone.
Oh, wait, wait, wait.
1891
01:43:38,040 --> 01:43:41,040
Hold on, hold on.
I can do a scuffle and I'll
1892
01:43:41,040 --> 01:43:45,120
drive the boat.
OK, OK, I, I have one.
1893
01:43:45,120 --> 01:43:47,480
I'm gonna bargain.
So I'm gonna pull out the pills
1894
01:43:47,480 --> 01:43:52,600
that I pilfered and be like, I
do have some high quality
1895
01:43:52,600 --> 01:43:55,440
medicine.
If you can allow me and my
1896
01:43:55,800 --> 01:43:57,720
friend here, Helen, on to the
ship.
1897
01:43:58,080 --> 01:44:01,880
We could fit one more person on
I'm sorry lady it we are just at
1898
01:44:01,880 --> 01:44:04,320
the we're stuffed in like
sardines.
1899
01:44:05,360 --> 01:44:08,280
If you would like, you could
spend a point of bargain and all
1900
01:44:08,280 --> 01:44:10,120
three of you can go, or I guess
all four of you.
1901
01:44:10,280 --> 01:44:12,160
Yeah, I'm gonna spend a whole
point of bargain.
1902
01:44:12,200 --> 01:44:15,960
OK, OK, Actually I'm gonna spend
2 because it'd be one for me and
1903
01:44:15,960 --> 01:44:17,880
then one for Helen.
I guess so, Yeah.
1904
01:44:17,880 --> 01:44:19,800
So you're gonna use up the your
bargain.
1905
01:44:19,800 --> 01:44:22,760
OK, Well, try to spookily split
up the party.
1906
01:44:22,760 --> 01:44:24,800
Is is not happening yet.
That's cool.
1907
01:44:24,800 --> 01:44:26,360
Whatever.
Mission failed.
1908
01:44:26,360 --> 01:44:30,320
You'll get him next time.
Should I have spent points on
1909
01:44:30,320 --> 01:44:34,160
reassurance previously?
No, no, generally you just can
1910
01:44:34,160 --> 01:44:36,680
do it because you have it.
If you're trying to do something
1911
01:44:36,680 --> 01:44:39,560
in like hard, you have to spend
a point.
1912
01:44:39,840 --> 01:44:44,160
OK, you are really packed in
here on the boat, but you do
1913
01:44:44,160 --> 01:44:48,640
eventually make it back to town,
the larger town of Kenswick
1914
01:44:48,640 --> 01:44:53,280
anyway, and you bring him over
to the hospital and he is
1915
01:44:53,280 --> 01:44:55,200
admitted.
What do you do in the what do
1916
01:44:55,200 --> 01:44:57,560
you try to do in the hospital?
How do you approach this?
1917
01:44:58,080 --> 01:45:01,920
I guess we go to emergency or
whatever the analogue is.
1918
01:45:02,320 --> 01:45:06,760
Yeah, as as you bring him in,
they're sort of like, Oh yeah,
1919
01:45:06,760 --> 01:45:09,080
sure.
Come at.
1920
01:45:09,080 --> 01:45:14,400
You're met by a doctor Rossdale
who you actually, because you
1921
01:45:14,400 --> 01:45:16,400
are a doctor.
You have heard of him before.
1922
01:45:16,440 --> 01:45:21,080
He's an older guy, but he's, you
know, this guy knows his his
1923
01:45:21,080 --> 01:45:22,600
stuff.
You may have read a paper that
1924
01:45:22,600 --> 01:45:24,960
he wrote one time.
He's there's nothing anything
1925
01:45:24,960 --> 01:45:27,040
extraordinary about him.
But he's also, he's like a good
1926
01:45:27,040 --> 01:45:28,800
doctor.
He's like a very good doctor.
1927
01:45:29,280 --> 01:45:31,240
He says, oh, OK, I'll take care
of your brother.
1928
01:45:31,240 --> 01:45:32,120
Don't work.
Don't work.
1929
01:45:32,800 --> 01:45:36,880
I'd say he's in capable hands.
He's got a fever of 10.
1930
01:45:37,960 --> 01:45:40,960
What?
He's he's pretty cold right now.
1931
01:45:40,960 --> 01:45:43,480
Oh.
OK, I wouldn't hold that A yes.
1932
01:45:43,600 --> 01:45:47,280
OK, nurse, get him in there.
And he is taken to a room.
1933
01:45:47,360 --> 01:45:51,360
He's sort of groaning a little
bit, but he he says he's going
1934
01:45:51,360 --> 01:45:54,560
to, you know, take a look at it
and he says are, are there any
1935
01:45:54,560 --> 01:45:56,640
other symptoms?
What's what's wrong with them?
1936
01:45:57,480 --> 01:45:59,240
Real loose skin and no
heartbeat.
1937
01:45:59,920 --> 01:46:03,000
What?
I know that sounds insane, but I
1938
01:46:03,000 --> 01:46:06,880
can attest to that.
The man who as you can see is
1939
01:46:06,880 --> 01:46:10,400
moving and talking and breathing
does not have a pulse.
1940
01:46:11,040 --> 01:46:14,360
Good luck.
Absolutely not.
1941
01:46:14,360 --> 01:46:17,440
You must be mistaken I that that
can't be correct.
1942
01:46:17,920 --> 01:46:19,560
Well, I always value a second
opinion.
1943
01:46:19,960 --> 01:46:21,360
OK.
Are there any?
1944
01:46:21,880 --> 01:46:24,240
Is there anything you'd like to
say to him to maybe convince him
1945
01:46:24,240 --> 01:46:27,760
to take that seriously?
Check him yourself.
1946
01:46:27,800 --> 01:46:30,720
Yes, I I guess I'll, I'll, I'll
check myself.
1947
01:46:31,960 --> 01:46:34,480
Oh God.
Something wrong with him?
1948
01:46:34,720 --> 01:46:35,560
Something.
Definitely.
1949
01:46:35,560 --> 01:46:38,960
OK, well, I'll try to figure
this out.
1950
01:46:40,440 --> 01:46:43,040
You might have some sort of
records about this.
1951
01:46:44,920 --> 01:46:48,440
And he he spent some time
looking at him, examining him
1952
01:46:48,440 --> 01:46:54,120
and says, my God, it's it's just
like in the Eddie trails off and
1953
01:46:54,120 --> 01:46:56,280
he actually runs out of the
room.
1954
01:46:56,840 --> 01:47:01,000
Are doctors supposed to do that?
I've never seen one run out the
1955
01:47:01,000 --> 01:47:03,280
room.
We we should, we should follow
1956
01:47:03,280 --> 01:47:05,600
him, yeah.
Good idea.
1957
01:47:06,640 --> 01:47:09,640
You see him run to like an
office and that you see him like
1958
01:47:09,720 --> 01:47:13,520
looking through his bookshelf
and he pulls out an old book and
1959
01:47:13,520 --> 01:47:16,280
then runs back to the oh, no, it
it, it's right here.
1960
01:47:16,720 --> 01:47:20,120
It's right here, Doctor.
Actually, have you introduced
1961
01:47:20,120 --> 01:47:22,600
yourself as a doctor?
Doctor Laws.
1962
01:47:23,360 --> 01:47:24,960
I glossed over it, but I think I
would have.
1963
01:47:25,280 --> 01:47:28,640
OK, Doctor, Mr. Laws.
Or I guess Doctor Laws.
1964
01:47:28,640 --> 01:47:31,720
He wouldn't say Mr. There is
something that I've seen before,
1965
01:47:31,720 --> 01:47:34,880
something like this in the old
hospital archives.
1966
01:47:35,640 --> 01:47:39,120
There's one other case that had
symptoms similar to this.
1967
01:47:39,360 --> 01:47:41,520
I thought it was so strange.
I was going through the hospital
1968
01:47:41,520 --> 01:47:43,440
history and nobody ever figured
out what happened to her.
1969
01:47:44,040 --> 01:47:49,640
I have an inkling who it was.
A woman named Betty came in
1970
01:47:49,680 --> 01:47:55,560
goodness, it must have been in
the 181816 it says here 1816.
1971
01:47:56,000 --> 01:47:59,720
A woman named Betty came in, had
the same symptoms and nobody
1972
01:47:59,720 --> 01:48:02,760
knew what to do.
She became rather agitated.
1973
01:48:03,920 --> 01:48:05,840
Well hopefully that doesn't
happen to my brother.
1974
01:48:05,840 --> 01:48:08,080
He's generally a level headed
sort.
1975
01:48:08,480 --> 01:48:11,600
Yeah, well, Betty was apparently
a level headed sort too, but
1976
01:48:11,600 --> 01:48:15,880
then she she started screaming
and and fighting back against
1977
01:48:15,880 --> 01:48:18,000
the folks here and then
eventually jumped out the third
1978
01:48:18,000 --> 01:48:21,120
story window.
Nobody ever saw what happened to
1979
01:48:21,120 --> 01:48:22,880
her after that.
They couldn't find a body.
1980
01:48:23,600 --> 01:48:24,760
Yeah.
I think we can probably guess
1981
01:48:24,760 --> 01:48:26,280
though.
Yes, though, of course, of
1982
01:48:26,280 --> 01:48:28,440
course, But it's there.
We weren't able to do an
1983
01:48:28,480 --> 01:48:32,320
autopsy, is the thing.
Of course, I hope that we won't
1984
01:48:32,320 --> 01:48:35,240
need to perform an autopsy on
your brother, but this is
1985
01:48:35,320 --> 01:48:36,760
fascinating.
We'll need to take a look at
1986
01:48:36,840 --> 01:48:39,560
this, figure out what happened.
As you're looking at the book,
1987
01:48:39,560 --> 01:48:44,440
you see that the records are for
a Betty Waring from 1816.
1988
01:48:44,760 --> 01:48:46,600
So.
So not Jack then Betty.
1989
01:48:46,920 --> 01:48:51,560
Curious, Sir, and curious Sir.
Yeah, well, this was almost 100
1990
01:48:51,560 --> 01:48:53,920
years ago, actually more than
100 years ago.
1991
01:48:55,080 --> 01:49:00,520
This is 1816.
Right now it's 1935 so I doubt
1992
01:49:00,520 --> 01:49:03,360
this could have been Jack.
Oh, right.
1993
01:49:05,040 --> 01:49:09,960
Unless Jack is very very old and
also I guess he would have to be
1994
01:49:09,960 --> 01:49:14,360
a time traveller if he died in
1816 and then bothered you like.
1995
01:49:14,920 --> 01:49:17,160
Lovecraft.
These are all possibilities.
1996
01:49:18,040 --> 01:49:20,960
These these this could be
possibilities, yes, yeah.
1997
01:49:21,000 --> 01:49:25,160
You guys were all born around
like 19119 O 4 or so, so it's
1998
01:49:25,160 --> 01:49:27,000
night time.
What would you guys like to do
1999
01:49:27,000 --> 01:49:29,400
this eve?
Also, as you are going, as
2000
01:49:29,400 --> 01:49:32,880
you're leaving the hospital,
once again you are hearing a
2001
01:49:32,880 --> 01:49:35,440
radio and the static is getting
louder and.
2002
01:49:37,840 --> 01:49:39,480
Louder.
Who has the radio on?
2003
01:49:39,760 --> 01:49:44,360
It's so loud.
Sorry, the the people like to to
2004
01:49:44,360 --> 01:49:48,120
listen to some music.
They're they're playing some
2005
01:49:48,120 --> 01:49:50,680
classical music that helps calm
folks down.
2006
01:49:52,120 --> 01:49:56,600
What, like in the outside you
can hear outside the hospital,
2007
01:49:56,600 --> 01:49:58,680
We're walking out, we're
outside, right?
2008
01:49:59,600 --> 01:50:02,000
Yeah, no, but there's like
radios outside the hospital as
2009
01:50:02,000 --> 01:50:03,520
well, but yeah.
Man.
2010
01:50:03,840 --> 01:50:07,400
I should note that every single
time they're describing this as
2011
01:50:07,440 --> 01:50:10,120
music and you guys are not
hearing.
2012
01:50:10,640 --> 01:50:15,120
Yeah, no, trust me, that fact
has my full attention.
2013
01:50:16,880 --> 01:50:19,320
You know, it's been a strange
day, but I think I'm finally
2014
01:50:19,320 --> 01:50:24,000
starting to understand music.
What is wrong with you?
2015
01:50:29,320 --> 01:50:33,320
I should note just a little bit
about the static that you keep
2016
01:50:33,320 --> 01:50:35,600
hearing.
Do either, do any of you guys
2017
01:50:35,600 --> 01:50:40,960
have physics?
One point in physics, OK, this
2018
01:50:40,960 --> 01:50:43,840
is sort of like maybe what's
happening is somebody has like a
2019
01:50:43,840 --> 01:50:48,840
transmitter that's like shooting
out white noise, and that would
2020
01:50:48,840 --> 01:50:51,680
sort of drown out all the other
radio signals and make it so
2021
01:50:51,680 --> 01:50:54,240
that you can only hear static
instead of the actual radio.
2022
01:50:54,640 --> 01:51:00,760
But that doesn't really explain
why only a few people can hear
2023
01:51:00,760 --> 01:51:03,120
the static and other people seem
to hear them.
2024
01:51:04,800 --> 01:51:07,000
I've also got 2IN languages if
that's relevant.
2025
01:51:09,160 --> 01:51:13,200
Not really.
Again, as you, I mean, do you
2026
01:51:13,200 --> 01:51:15,440
want to try to listen really
closely to it to try to see if
2027
01:51:15,440 --> 01:51:17,760
you can understand the language?
Definitely.
2028
01:51:18,600 --> 01:51:19,960
OK, that sounds right up my
alley.
2029
01:51:20,400 --> 01:51:25,360
Yeah, again, you just hear
whisperings here and there and
2030
01:51:25,360 --> 01:51:31,400
then at one point you are
certain that the voice says
2031
01:51:31,920 --> 01:51:39,240
Michael.
It's time, Michael and you hear
2032
01:51:39,240 --> 01:51:42,440
drumming about.
Well, I hope my brother's all
2033
01:51:42,440 --> 01:51:43,720
right.
I think I'll need him later.
2034
01:51:43,720 --> 01:51:47,120
Oh.
God, by the way, definitely
2035
01:51:47,120 --> 01:51:53,040
hearing your name in the static
is going to be a three-point
2036
01:51:53,040 --> 01:51:56,160
possible split plus.
All right.
2037
01:51:56,160 --> 01:51:58,040
I will spend a point this time,
OK?
2038
01:51:58,680 --> 01:52:00,240
Nice.
Nice.
2039
01:52:00,240 --> 01:52:03,320
OK, you don't fail.
This all seems above board.
2040
01:52:04,840 --> 01:52:10,120
I mean, to be clear, you know
it's not above board when you're
2041
01:52:10,200 --> 01:52:11,760
you're making these checks
successfully.
2042
01:52:11,760 --> 01:52:14,040
Does that mean that you are
foolish?
2043
01:52:14,280 --> 01:52:17,560
It just means that you are
trying to make it through here.
2044
01:52:18,680 --> 01:52:21,120
What is your stability at then?
Did you spend a point?
2045
01:52:22,160 --> 01:52:26,040
Oh right, so that puts it in 0.
OK, yes, you are shaken.
2046
01:52:26,160 --> 01:52:30,960
You are no longer able to spend
ability points for investigative
2047
01:52:30,960 --> 01:52:33,720
skills.
You can only just use them, so
2048
01:52:33,720 --> 01:52:36,320
you can't get the greater
successes and all of your
2049
01:52:36,320 --> 01:52:39,560
difficulties are going up by 1.
All right.
2050
01:52:39,800 --> 01:52:44,080
If you would like to use
investigative abilities, you'll
2051
01:52:44,080 --> 01:52:46,000
be able to make a stability
test.
2052
01:52:46,440 --> 01:52:48,680
Like if you want to actually
spend, you'll, you'll have to
2053
01:52:48,680 --> 01:52:52,480
make a test.
Also, you start checking your
2054
01:52:52,480 --> 01:52:56,600
own pulse.
You just feel the desire, just a
2055
01:52:56,600 --> 01:52:59,920
little bit of a compulsion to
start checking your pulse and
2056
01:52:59,920 --> 01:53:01,680
maybe the pulse of people around
you.
2057
01:53:02,320 --> 01:53:07,520
Hey, Jonesy, come here.
How can I help you, doctor?
2058
01:53:08,840 --> 01:53:10,520
And just hold still for a
second, I'm going to check
2059
01:53:10,520 --> 01:53:11,880
something.
OK.
2060
01:53:12,760 --> 01:53:16,320
His pulse seems to be beating.
All right, everything seems OK
2061
01:53:16,320 --> 01:53:17,040
here.
Hey, Helen.
2062
01:53:18,640 --> 01:53:20,400
Why do you need to check my
pulse?
2063
01:53:22,120 --> 01:53:25,760
The doctor, just in case, you
know, these things can be
2064
01:53:25,760 --> 01:53:26,720
contagious.
I don't know.
2065
01:53:26,720 --> 01:53:28,440
It's it's a pretty mysterious
illness.
2066
01:53:29,080 --> 01:53:35,840
She does offer her arm.
Her pulse seems weak and slow,
2067
01:53:35,840 --> 01:53:38,880
but it is still there.
Oh.
2068
01:53:39,400 --> 01:53:42,320
I'll give a look like could be
better, Helen.
2069
01:53:43,000 --> 01:53:45,520
There, there's a third person
you need to check their doctor.
2070
01:53:46,320 --> 01:53:48,360
Well, well, no, I can't check my
own pulse.
2071
01:53:48,360 --> 01:53:50,200
That's that's physically
impossible.
2072
01:53:50,200 --> 01:53:51,800
They've tried.
What?
2073
01:53:54,440 --> 01:53:57,360
Doctor, may I check your pulse?
Oh absolutely.
2074
01:53:57,600 --> 01:53:59,040
Only way to do it.
Have someone else do it.
2075
01:54:02,560 --> 01:54:06,280
Yeah, I just placed my fingers
on his wrist.
2076
01:54:07,280 --> 01:54:11,520
For just a moment it seems like
he doesn't have a pulse.
2077
01:54:12,360 --> 01:54:15,000
Oh, but that it starts, it's
very slow.
2078
01:54:16,000 --> 01:54:21,080
So how am I doing?
Your pulse is unusually slow.
2079
01:54:22,720 --> 01:54:25,760
May have jumped the gun when I
told that ferryman that that
2080
01:54:25,760 --> 01:54:29,160
wasn't catching.
Today has been a very eventful
2081
01:54:29,160 --> 01:54:35,240
day for all of us.
How about we just get one drink,
2082
01:54:36,000 --> 01:54:39,480
process everything that's
happened, and then get some
2083
01:54:39,480 --> 01:54:41,440
sleep?
I like that plan.
2084
01:54:42,240 --> 01:54:45,840
I like most of that plan
processing what's happening and
2085
01:54:45,840 --> 01:54:48,720
take it and leave it.
I feel that.
2086
01:54:52,360 --> 01:54:54,600
Thanks for listening to our
remastered first episode.
2087
01:54:54,800 --> 01:54:56,760
Danielle was our GM for Trail of
Cthulhu.
2088
01:54:56,960 --> 01:54:59,920
Dominic played Jonesy and also
originally edited the episode.
2089
01:55:00,400 --> 01:55:03,040
Nathan played Helen and Russell
played Doctor Laws and did the
2090
01:55:03,040 --> 01:55:05,280
remaster.
Daniel's Dread Tail's cover art
2091
01:55:05,280 --> 01:55:08,800
is by Trinity, the T tab Witch.
Our main theme is by Claire LW
2092
01:55:08,800 --> 01:55:11,120
on SoundCloud.
You'll also hear music from
2093
01:55:11,120 --> 01:55:14,440
Isaiah Brighton at the top and
some snippets of random jazz by
2094
01:55:14,440 --> 01:55:16,360
Imagined Dragon.
On pics of it.
2095
01:55:17,000 --> 01:55:18,640
Any other music you heard was by
me.
2096
01:55:19,120 --> 01:55:21,800
We're all learning as we go
here, and I wanted to update our
2097
01:55:21,800 --> 01:55:23,920
first episode.
The first episode a lot of
2098
01:55:23,920 --> 01:55:26,320
people will hear from the show
to reflect what's been learned.
2099
01:55:26,920 --> 01:55:29,880
For instance, I no longer use
push to talk whenever we record.
2100
01:55:30,160 --> 01:55:31,440
That's what the clicking sound
was.
2101
01:55:31,600 --> 01:55:34,040
I know I missed some.
Anyway, if you want to hear the
2102
01:55:34,040 --> 01:55:36,040
whole learning curve, we welcome
you to do so.
2103
01:55:36,240 --> 01:55:38,960
We had a lot of fun making every
episode and we hope you enjoy.
2104
01:55:39,360 --> 01:55:41,680
If you'd rather jump ahead to
where it started to become more
2105
01:55:41,680 --> 01:55:45,200
polished, It's the End of the
World is a personal favorite.
2106
01:55:45,680 --> 01:55:48,360
Again, thanks for listening and
until next time, this is the
2107
01:55:48,360 --> 01:55:51,320
first episode and it will always
have been the first episode.
