Last time on Eternal Lies, as
5
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:21,720
Falcon, Kane worked to distract
a crowd of people with sharp
6
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:23,720
objects.
Gilworth and Kane set to work
7
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:25,840
raising the village and doing
away with his leadership.
8
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:28,680
While the appearance and
subsequent murmurs of a terrible
9
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,800
new mouth on Colin's arm proved
too much for JB to handle, the
10
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,640
MA marked detective kept things
together enough to regroup with
11
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,480
his companions, just as a fiery
explosion did away with the
12
00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:40,200
Dalal proto mouth during their
hasty egress.
13
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,640
With rational thought thrown
completely out the window, Reg
14
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,760
enacted a desperate change to
their escape plan, opening a
15
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,960
portal into the blackest depths
of outer space and sacrificing
16
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,800
himself in the process.
Though the village was dealt
17
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,160
with, the investigators now
found themselves in the middle
18
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,000
of the desert without guides.
After making their way to a
19
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,000
known Oasis nearby, Frank set on
on his own in search of aid,
20
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,240
finding it just in time for his
own sake.
21
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,239
Out of the fire, but with the
frying pan perilously close,
22
00:01:05,239 --> 00:01:08,440
Falcon Kearns took Colin back to
Kaluli and reft the portion of
23
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,280
his arm hosting a mouth from his
body before making their
24
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,040
mercifully uneventful way back
to New York, having met with
25
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,080
success over the mythos.
At the cost of an arm at a
26
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,360
Ridge.
The die is cast, the pact is
27
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,680
sealed.
May God have mercy on our souls.
28
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,080
It's Daniel's dread tales, I
think.
29
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:33,480
That's a.
Fine place to start.
30
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,160
I've got a new things to do in
New York though.
31
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,680
Yeah, OK.
Yeah, it's a good place.
32
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,760
To arrive at the time you
arrange to beat Miss Winston
33
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:48,280
Rogers, there is another man
standing in the room with her.
34
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,360
Do you want to introduce what
your character looks like,
35
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,840
David?
He's kind of just standing off
36
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,640
to the side of the room looking
at something in Winston Rogers
37
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:03,280
office and he is a fairly tall
man, indeterminate age with
38
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:09,160
shoulder length black hair and
is completely clean shaven.
39
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,840
One of the things that stands
out about him is he's wearing a
40
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,400
black suit and white glove all.
Right.
41
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:24,080
And Miss Winston Rogers invites
you all in and says, do come in,
42
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,720
take a seat.
I would like to hear of how your
43
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,360
investigations went in North
Africa.
44
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,800
Poorly.
I shudder visibly.
45
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:42,920
That said, I wouldn't say it was
without merit, but as you have
46
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,840
no doubt figured out by now, we
lost Reg in the process.
47
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,160
Yes.
Dare I ask what happened?
48
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,760
Better if you don't.
Yeah, it's quite complicated.
49
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:59,000
Let's just say there isn't a
body to bury.
50
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,520
Indeed.
Were you successful?
51
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:08,440
Did you find this man you were
looking?
52
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:14,960
For we did, we found heirs and
managed to acquire some limited
53
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,320
information from him.
And more questions.
54
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:23,640
And more questions, of course.
But we also managed to stop a
55
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:29,480
burgeoning branch of this cult
from forming any further.
56
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,560
I guess technically we took out
two melts.
57
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,520
Cullen waves his non existent
left hand.
58
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,120
Yeah.
My goodness.
59
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,720
Also called and lost his arm at
at the elbow.
60
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,000
Yeah, that did happen.
Well getting rid of these
61
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,000
mouths, cussing arm and a leg
and I got a discount I guess.
62
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:52,160
Oh God.
That comment made her visibly
63
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,120
uncomfortable.
A little bit of a gallows humor
64
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,880
here.
We all cope in our different
65
00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,640
ways.
If it makes you feel any better,
66
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,760
I think next time's my turn or
JB's.
67
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,320
Does not make anyone feel
better.
68
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:05,600
Anyway.
Who?
69
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,840
Who the fuck is this guy?
New goon, OH.
70
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,640
My God.
I was hoping that we not lose
71
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:18,480
anyone else.
This is Doctor Smalls.
72
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:25,080
He is an alienist that is
acquainted with my organization.
73
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,720
He is from I I'm sorry, I
forgot.
74
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,600
Where did you study Doctor
Smalls?
75
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:35,560
Yes, I studied at Miskatonic
University.
76
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:43,920
Yeah, home of the fighting.
I was called in by Miss Winston
77
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:50,440
Rogers to assist with your
investigation.
78
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:57,160
It seems that my presence would
be needed here more than was
79
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,160
described.
Question.
80
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,600
How does the stump on Collin's
arm look right now?
81
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,200
Like is it well bandaged like?
Healing at this point, assuming
82
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,000
this has been a couple days that
I didn't get off the plane and
83
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,080
go straight to the office.
That's why I'm asking.
84
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,480
I get it.
Clean bandages.
85
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,640
Collins looking after it because
it would be real bad if he
86
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,600
didn't.
Taking care of the bandages is
87
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:28,880
helping him acclimate would.
You all say that injuries of
88
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:33,720
this nature are part and parcel
for this investigation.
89
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:39,320
Gesturing to Collins truncated
arm.
90
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,200
I'd say this was exceptional
circumstances.
91
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,240
I'd say he was lucky to get away
mostly intact.
92
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,840
Could have been worse.
There was a mouse that was
93
00:05:49,840 --> 00:05:51,680
trying to bite me.
It had to get rid of it.
94
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:57,560
Been so much worse.
So welcome to the team.
95
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,080
We could definitely use a
shrink.
96
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:06,080
There used to be library cards,
but sort of don't need those
97
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,680
anymore.
That was really the reason that
98
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,480
I brought the good doctor on
board.
99
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,400
I was thinking that they would
not actually accompany you in
100
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,160
the field originally, just
provide you with a little bit of
101
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:27,600
solace between your expeditions.
But perhaps it would be better
102
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,240
if he accompanied you.
I will say when we need the most
103
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,600
help is when we are in the
field, psychologically or
104
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,200
otherwise.
More meat for the grinder.
105
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,800
Don't say that I'm trying to
create a welcoming atmosphere
106
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:47,400
here and you guys are just.
You gained a little bit of a
107
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:52,000
fatalistic outlook there.
I think my drive being bad luck,
108
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:53,400
this is just the turn that it's
taking.
109
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,560
It's like, yeah, this is how
it's going to go from now on.
110
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,400
I'm not sure if others notice,
but Kerns is high.
111
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,160
Oh.
I mean, that makes sense.
112
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,520
Kerns is high OK.
Kerns is high on morphemes right
113
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,480
now, so.
Yeah, that that tracks.
114
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,800
He's a little bit a little bit
slow.
115
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,720
Two questions for the GM.
OK.
116
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,720
Is it is this a smoking or
non-smoking office?
117
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,600
Like are there ashtrays?
Yeah, there's ashtrays.
118
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:20,360
Yeah, there's.
Ashtrays.
119
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,400
Cool 30s everything is smoking.
Oh yeah.
120
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,120
Most maybe Winston Rogers didn't
want smoking like, you know,
121
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:28,560
Yeah, I.
Guess.
122
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:34,360
And would you say that with a
medicine score of 6, Doctor
123
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:38,360
Smalls would have an inkling
that Kearns is high as a kite?
124
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,960
I think not high as a kite,
functioningly high.
125
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,280
Just thinking I'm a little bit
slow.
126
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,520
So high is like a a medium sized
tree.
127
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:52,280
Kearns thinks that they are at a
level where they can function.
128
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,960
Whether or not that is actually
true is a different question,
129
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,040
but.
Fair enough.
130
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,600
Yeah, OK.
Oh, right.
131
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:07,760
This is the first time I've been
back in a populated city since
132
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:12,640
our adventure in Ethiopia.
Do I have to do something to
133
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,160
manage?
It's JB High too.
134
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:16,880
Oh no.
I've got a mild.
135
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:21,080
I've got a severe addiction to
Nectar though is the problem.
136
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:26,280
That's another question, yeah.
Is JB showing signs of
137
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,520
withdrawals at the moment?
Well, let's see, because JB only
138
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,200
took it once.
He did take a lot of it all at
139
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,080
once though.
Yeah, and I've been cold
140
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:41,120
turkeying ever since.
I need you to make a stability
141
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,160
test Difficulty 5.
Actually no, just three.
142
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,480
If you're ever like literally in
front of Nectar, like you see
143
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,080
it, it will be 5.
But for right now, it's a
144
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,680
difficulty 3 for you not to go
out and try to get some Nectar,
145
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,600
which is not super prominent in
New York yet.
146
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:04,880
OK, well I still fail so.
Oh shit.
147
00:09:05,680 --> 00:09:10,120
OK, OK, so you are also high on
Nectar.
148
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,840
I I found some, I went out and
found some.
149
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:14,560
OK.
Yeah.
150
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:19,440
All right.
The nectar lasts for about 3
151
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,280
hours.
Actually it lasts 1D3 hours, so.
152
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,840
So I'm probably like coming down
about right now.
153
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,120
You're coming down.
Yeah.
154
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,960
You definitely felt the need to
to have sex.
155
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,480
I don't know what you did.
I'm not gonna narrate what your
156
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,840
character did, but you truly
wanted to.
157
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:42,120
Like, I don't know if you have a
gal or gentleman that you went
158
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,400
to or you've hired a
professional or anything like
159
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,240
that.
We don't need to get too deep
160
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:53,240
into it, but yes.
If I may make a suggestion, did
161
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,800
we not bump into each other in a
sex store?
162
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,080
OK, Yeah.
I forgot about that.
163
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,840
Something happened.
We're not going to talk about
164
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,760
it.
No, we're not talking about it.
165
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,440
No.
OK, so you guys are both on your
166
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,360
drugs of choice and deliberately
not looking at each other after
167
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,240
you hooked up.
I'm not ashamed.
168
00:10:14,560 --> 00:10:18,360
OK, JB is maybe ashamed, I don't
know.
169
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,840
Or maybe not, I don't know.
J BS in a complicated state
170
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,600
right now and doesn't want to
get into it.
171
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:32,520
Yes, thankfully this, I mean
look big on Nectar bad news, but
172
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,640
at least at this point, when
you're not on mission, it's OK
173
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,160
ish.
I need you to make a mark
174
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,000
somewhere on your character
sheet that you have taken Nectar
175
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:43,760
twice now, uh.
Oh.
176
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,760
Yeah, I don't like the sound of
that.
177
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,320
Yeah, you guys are really
falling apart anyway.
178
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:53,040
Hey Doc, you were looking at
these people and they are on
179
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:57,480
some level of drugs.
So yeah, what everybody sees is
180
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:02,840
Doctor Smalls at some point
pulled out a small notebook out
181
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:07,400
of their jacket and has started
taking notes.
182
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,040
That's hilarious.
So like the camera pan would
183
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,880
like take a would see the
notebook and what's being
184
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:20,200
written down and it'll be Mr.
Falk high question mark, Kearns
185
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:24,600
dash high on opiate question
mark.
186
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,360
'Cause.
I don't assume that he would
187
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,800
know that it was specifically
morphine, but something in that
188
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,240
group of drugs.
Yeah.
189
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:39,240
Opioid addiction is currently
raging in the United States.
190
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,120
Yes.
As in in the 30s?
191
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,320
Yes, and now, but that's a
separate thing.
192
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,040
Yeah.
It's going to get even worse
193
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:53,640
after the war, actually.
But Winston Rogers is sort of
194
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:59,880
looking out the window now over
the city and says you have had
195
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:03,960
some victories over this Colts
that did these horrible things
196
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:09,320
to my father and the world.
I know you limited their nectar
197
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:15,400
distribution in Europe and stop
this mouth here in North Africa,
198
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:21,440
but I it feels so large.
From what I understand, Nectar
199
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,080
is even starting to appear on
the streets of New York City.
200
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:28,360
JB conspicuously dodges eye
contact with everyone in the.
201
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,720
JP why did you just spin around
in a circle?
202
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:38,200
I know that maybe because the
United States based operation in
203
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:42,800
Los Angeles is still functioning
and the police there too corrupt
204
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,280
to do anything about it.
Honestly, you'd think setting
205
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,960
the place on fire would have
done more to slow them down.
206
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,800
Hey, drop a tip to the police.
Tell them we're in the
207
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,440
Trammell's basement.
Problem solved.
208
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:54,600
You know that's not how that
would work, right?
209
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,400
Probably not.
All right, we're still wanted,
210
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,400
aren't we?
Have you found the source of all
211
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:05,360
this?
This thing that they worship?
212
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,920
Can you find it?
Can it be stopped?
213
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,360
Well, the best lead we have is
that it's in a mountain
214
00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:15,560
somewhere and there's some sort
of spell we got to cast to
215
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,960
reveal it.
And the moon has to be, it's a
216
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,520
it's a whole deal.
Anyway, Reg took that stuff with
217
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:22,680
him.
Oh.
218
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:27,480
Did he, Did we actually lose all
of our magic stuff with Reg?
219
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,720
If everything in the three mile
radius was sucked into the black
220
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:33,440
hole.
You lost some stuff.
221
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,400
The remember you left a lot of
the books with Winston Rogers,
222
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,440
who we established.
Oh yeah, we did.
223
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,360
Yeah, OK, we did.
I was just going to say like
224
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,400
most of the library was probably
on the plane because that was a
225
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,320
lot of books.
You OK?
226
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,080
Oh yeah, I guess Winston Rogers
has Trammell's testament that
227
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:50,000
she's been going.
To go.
228
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,960
And you guys have the the huge
pile of books that you stole
229
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:58,760
from Trammell's cult.
He's probably very mad when he
230
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,720
led up to his library later on.
And it's like, honestly, it
231
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,840
seems kind of unreasonable that
they got so many books out of
232
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,040
here.
But let's not think about it too
233
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,320
much.
I have been looking at this book
234
00:14:11,680 --> 00:14:16,760
speaks of a black man Capital B,
Capital M.
235
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:23,120
Oh yeah, Neurlathetep.
Yes, I talked to a Professor
236
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:28,440
Armitage up at Miskatonic.
They told me about Neurlathetep,
237
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,480
that they're a prophet.
No, that's not right.
238
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,200
Kay said they were the messenger
of as I thought.
239
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:36,960
I don't know what most of those
words mean.
240
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:42,960
That they were a they were the
John the Baptist to this other's
241
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:47,800
Christ, as it were.
But that doesn't from what you
242
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:52,840
told me, that doesn't seem to
you said it was Golgoroth or
243
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,240
none of this seems to make
sense.
244
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,160
Right there with you.
The only thing we really got out
245
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,960
of Ayers is that he's absolutely
certain it's not Golgoroth.
246
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:06,280
It's not Golgoroth.
Well, when it comes to these
247
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:11,960
cults, a lot of their beliefs
are highly contradictory of one
248
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,520
another.
Not much of it can actually be
249
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:21,440
taken for face value, especially
when it comes to cults that
250
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,560
involve drugs and debauchery.
Not that they've given us a lot
251
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,360
of value to face in the first
place.
252
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,320
The late leader of this cult,
Ikaria.
253
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:36,400
From from what I understand he
he didn't much care about the
254
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,760
worship or the worshippers in
the 1st place.
255
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:46,880
He had his own ulterior motives.
To what end he established this
256
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:51,800
cult, we're still not sure.
Yes, I guess that's what Trammel
257
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:57,560
says, that Golgoroth is not the
site of the worship, but there
258
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,120
are signs.
I don't know.
259
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,880
I've been reading as much as I
can to try to understand it, and
260
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,080
it all makes even less sense the
more I read about it.
261
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:15,560
There's some evidence of the
Mayans or the Aztecs worshipped
262
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:20,720
Golgoroth, or at least some of
them did at one point.
263
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:26,040
Not all of them, but Colts of
him existed in the the Yucatan.
264
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:31,480
Perhaps that's why there's some
evidence that the colt was
265
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:35,320
active in Mexico City.
That whole city's built on an
266
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:39,960
Aztec city in the first place.
We had found a record to back at
267
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,480
Trammell's place.
I think Kay took that with her
268
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:46,840
when she exploded, but it was
from a place called Lose Discos.
269
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:52,600
Yeah, we never played it.
I know I I read some things in
270
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,080
Trammell's testament here, here,
and she provides you with
271
00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:00,440
several things to read.
It's letters sent to Trammell
272
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:06,240
from somebody who is named.
I suppose this may become
273
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:10,839
slightly confusing JB.
No relation, I promise.
274
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,640
No, I think we would know if
there was.
275
00:17:15,079 --> 00:17:24,160
There's talk about a making a
letter that will honor their God
276
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,680
and will help the nectar blow
throughout all of North and
277
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:32,320
South America, but there's a lot
here about seems mostly
278
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:36,960
apologies.
I'm sorry that the production is
279
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,600
down, but it will be up again.
The letter is taking a while.
280
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,480
The not the letter, the sorry
the album.
281
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,080
The album is taking long, but
just give me a little bit more
282
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,040
time.
Seems quite.
283
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,760
I don't quite understand what
was going on, but it seems like
284
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,640
they were making a record and
mostly we're sending apologies
285
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,960
to Trammel for why it hadn't
worked yet.
286
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:02,640
Perhaps the most really useful
thing I could find is APO Box
287
00:18:03,120 --> 00:18:05,400
that these letters were being
sent from I.
288
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,280
Didn't know you could send from
APO box, that's cool.
289
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:13,720
Well, that's the return address.
They're all on a loose discos
290
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,040
stationary.
We had found a letter in
291
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,160
Donovan's possession from JB as
well.
292
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,360
I imagine this is probably the
same person because 3J BS would
293
00:18:24,360 --> 00:18:25,880
just be too many.
Yeah.
294
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,280
Wasn't it?
Yeah, it was Donovan who wrote
295
00:18:29,360 --> 00:18:32,440
the letter to JB, right?
That makes sense.
296
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:38,160
Yeah, never sent it.
Yeah, I would say that seems
297
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:42,280
like a place to investigate.
I know there's some mention of
298
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:46,640
the colt in Bangkok, but it's
all a little vague.
299
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,840
They said go to the Fragrant
Honey shop, but how can you find
300
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:56,200
that in all of Bangkok whereas
this is a straight up PO Box?
301
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,320
Yeah.
You are ultimately the
302
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,360
investigators, but I would
encourage you to maybe look at
303
00:19:02,360 --> 00:19:04,520
this.
I think that's the plan.
304
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,200
It might be nice to stay on the
same continent for a change.
305
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,360
Is it a drive to Mexico City or
is it a flight?
306
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,720
I mean, I suppose you could
drive if you wanted to, but the
307
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,760
flight would be much more
reasonable because New York is
308
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:21,280
pretty far away from Mexico
City.
309
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,680
Yes, like if you were in Los
Angeles, it would make sense to
310
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,520
drive to Mexico City.
But we very intentionally left
311
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:34,200
Los Angeles when we did.
Yeah, well, I guess I'll go make
312
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,440
sure that Princess is ready to
fly if you excuse me.
313
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:46,920
Yes, and Doctor Smalls, I I know
I briefed you on some of this
314
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,960
information, but they could
catch you up on everything else.
315
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,560
I suppose.
I must thank you for your help.
316
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:58,800
I ask you for your absolute
discretion in these matters.
317
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:05,800
And while I know money is
perhaps not the greatest
318
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,760
motivator, it's something this
dangerous.
319
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,320
Know that you all will be
greatly compensated.
320
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,160
Could see why my father never
wanted to think of this again.
321
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,600
I can't turn a blind eye to the
world.
322
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,760
Miss Winston Rogers, is there
any mention of an Edgar job in
323
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:27,520
that manual by Trammell?
No, no mention at all.
324
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,560
Interesting.
You'd think his name would come
325
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,000
up somewhere in here, but
absolutely nothing.
326
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:36,160
You mentioned Cavaria did
something with Trammell.
327
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,960
Ayres was absolutely convinced
that Edgar Job had some
328
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,560
important part to play in a
Cavaria's plan.
329
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,560
Well, Trammell is not a cavaria.
Perhaps he's being fooled like
330
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,680
everyone else.
Oh, I'm almost certain of it.
331
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:51,640
Oh, have I?
Have I mentioned?
332
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,320
I'm pretty sure that all of this
is according to Cavalry's plan,
333
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,160
and really, Trammell's just a
puppet in the end.
334
00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,920
I'm much more worried with the
Cavalry's plan than Trammell's.
335
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,760
Just he's get that clear.
He's dead though.
336
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,640
Are you saying that he has a
plan beyond his grave?
337
00:21:07,120 --> 00:21:08,920
Oh, absolutely.
Would it shock you?
338
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,880
Suppose not Cavalry is the one
that brought this thing into the
339
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:17,080
world.
Trammel's just been harvesting
340
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,920
it.
I wonder if I could interview
341
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,960
Edgar Joe.
Did they summon the males or did
342
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,480
they just build up around him
and the males were always here?
343
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,800
I don't know.
Well in Ethiopia they were
344
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:34,400
trying to summon it, but it was
already a stone featuring around
345
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:38,200
when he found it so.
Yeah, it'd be kind of weird if
346
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,880
there was a couch with a mouth
on it all that time too.
347
00:21:41,120 --> 00:21:43,600
They were trying to summon a
stone carving.
348
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:48,640
No, no, a mouth, big, huge, 30
feet across eats people, drips
349
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,480
some sort of drug that makes you
loopy.
350
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,760
I recognize that this sounds
insane, but it is true.
351
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,400
Yes.
To be clear, Mr. Smalls, this is
352
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:06,640
not a metaphor, Dr. Smalls, this
is very real and very dangerous.
353
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:10,080
But I know that you're what's
your drive again?
354
00:22:10,360 --> 00:22:11,680
If I remember correctly,
arrogance.
355
00:22:12,360 --> 00:22:15,040
Oh.
Oh interesting.
356
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,280
Fuck.
No way to no way to compliment
357
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,640
somebody on their arrogance
without sounding like an
358
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,640
asshole.
Expertise.
359
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:29,640
This is the kind of challenge
that you might appreciate and
360
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:33,440
that your expertise could do
well in looking at this.
361
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,040
Very well.
I'll make sure the plane is
362
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,720
fueled up, give you some more
petty cash.
363
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,880
I think American dollars will do
just fine in Mexico.
364
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,440
Good luck, I hope that you find
answers.
365
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,240
Yeah, that'd be nice.
Currents, I need you to make a
366
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,320
difficulty 4 cents trouble
check.
367
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:58,640
Interesting.
Makes sense.
368
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:00,960
I'll spend 2 points.
That's an 8.
369
00:23:01,360 --> 00:23:03,000
Someone's been tampering with
the plane.
370
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:09,160
What with Princess who, I'm
going to RIP their fucking spine
371
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:13,120
out.
It looks like the fuel line was
372
00:23:13,120 --> 00:23:15,480
loosened so that it would come
loose during flight.
373
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,080
OK, I'm going to use mechanical
repair to fix it.
374
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,040
Easy enough to do that.
That's a pretty simple
375
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,320
maintenance job to fix for for
one like you.
376
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:29,080
But yeah, somebody was here
tampering with your plane.
377
00:23:29,360 --> 00:23:32,720
Make it so it's going to crash.
I need you to make a difficulty
378
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,760
3 mechanical repair pack.
Sure, yeah, I'll just spend 2
379
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,360
points and succeed.
I'm going to go let Rue know, I
380
00:23:39,360 --> 00:23:41,640
guess.
Yeah, there's the there's been
381
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,280
somebody's been trying to
sabotage Princess.
382
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:47,480
Well, we got to let Winston
Rogers know.
383
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:52,800
Is there security at the hangar?
It's just at a, it's at an
384
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,520
airfield.
There is security there, but
385
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,720
it's not super tight security,
if that makes sense.
386
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,480
It's 1930s security.
Yeah.
387
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,080
Yeah, this could be something
that Winston Rogers could try to
388
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:06,960
investigate, but.
OK.
389
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:12,080
But this means that somebody
maybe knows who you are or knows
390
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,680
what your plane looks like or
something like that.
391
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:16,600
Well, it was bound to happen
eventually.
392
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,840
Yeah, it is pretty distinct.
It is a super plane that exists
393
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:25,240
outside of town that's able to
go across oceans that planes
394
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,320
really shouldn't be able to go
over at this point in history.
395
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,480
But that's just a little bit of
menace for you.
396
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,720
Besides that, you're you're
ready to go to Mexico City.
397
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:38,240
Yeah, somewhere between this and
the take off, I'm going to go
398
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,320
get more pills.
Anything else people are going
399
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:41,880
to do before they leave for
Mexico City?
400
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:46,640
Colin is going to talk to
Reggie's cousin Tracy, who was
401
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:50,080
an actor or actress.
Yep, Off Broadway.
402
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:54,360
And because Colin has terrible
luck, he catches her before a
403
00:24:54,360 --> 00:24:56,880
show instead of after.
Of course.
404
00:24:57,360 --> 00:25:00,880
Oh no.
It's a bad scene.
405
00:25:01,120 --> 00:25:04,240
Do you want to use any of your
conversational skills?
406
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,400
Accounting, right?
No, no, that's an academic
407
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:10,160
skill.
Right.
408
00:25:11,360 --> 00:25:21,200
Although.
You are mentioned in his will.
409
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,080
They wanted you to have this.
Just some sort of Knick knack
410
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,000
apple flask.
I don't.
411
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,040
I don't know if I want to play
out this whole scene.
412
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:34,880
I think we want to get moving to
the investigation, but I think
413
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,320
that she cries and hugs you.
Stands awkwardly.
414
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,960
And what do you say happened to
him?
415
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:47,880
Got to say she's going to.
Ask.
416
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:49,000
Yep.
Fuck.
417
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:54,480
Well, he, I suppose he found the
only piece that he could find
418
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:56,440
anymore.
Maybe there's some solace in
419
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,760
that.
It wasn't pretty though, I'll
420
00:25:59,960 --> 00:26:01,400
tell you that.
Fuck.
421
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,440
Me.
Go until you said that.
422
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,640
Oh my God, what?
Happened.
423
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,760
Was it?
Was it gangsters?
424
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,120
What?
It was magic, actually.
425
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:20,960
Oh, that poor woman.
Shut up, I'm loving my heart
426
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:25,480
calling me shut the fuck.
Up.
427
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:30,120
Are you there, JB?
No, he's just yelling across
428
00:26:30,120 --> 00:26:33,760
space of time.
Now JB is in an alley getting
429
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,880
high on Nectar and he sees this
happening and brings him right
430
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:41,200
out of it.
Like Kearns is 1 alley over?
431
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:47,120
JP was about to do some nectar,
but then he peeks out, sees this
432
00:26:47,120 --> 00:26:51,400
and tosses that shit aside and
Secret Service tackles call into
433
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:56,800
the ground.
No, no, I don't think that
434
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:58,520
happens.
I think I think what she's going
435
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,840
to say is yeah, obviously, yeah,
yeah.
436
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:05,480
He was looking into that occult
stuff that he was obsessed with.
437
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:07,240
Huh.
He was, yes.
438
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:09,520
I told him to stay away from
that.
439
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,680
Nothing good can come with that.
I guess it did.
440
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,720
They did not, and I suppose
that's best we just leave it at
441
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,720
that.
I don't want to give you too
442
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,200
detailed a description here,
it'd be real bad for your
443
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:29,600
sanity.
I suppose it's an odd question.
444
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:35,320
If you could tell me this, they
wouldn't be coming after me now
445
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:39,000
would they?
So I'm going to hook you up with
446
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,600
a lady named Janet Winston
Rogers.
447
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:43,840
You should probably go talk to
her as soon as you can.
448
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:48,880
Tell her Colin sent you.
What OK the?
449
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,760
Fact that they probably weren't
going to go after her, but you
450
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,800
just made the situation way more
stressful than it needs to be
451
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,640
is.
My specialty.
452
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:00,640
Yes, I know.
Thank you.
453
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,080
Anything else before we make the
flight to Mexico City?
454
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,880
No, I think pollen burned that
budget to the ground.
455
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:14,600
OK, the flight to Mexico City is
an uneventful one.
456
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,000
You're just like flying over the
continent, nice and easy, you
457
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:19,280
know?
No camels.
458
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:24,320
No camels, no nothing like that.
Just landing in Mexico City.
459
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:28,400
Fun fact about Mexico City,
Mexico City is kind of like our
460
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,840
Washington DC here in the United
States in that it is not
461
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:35,440
actually in a state.
It is its own sort of federal
462
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:38,400
district.
Mexico City was built on the
463
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:42,680
remains of Tinochitran, which
was sort of the capital of the
464
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:46,560
Aztec Empire.
It's also built mostly on top of
465
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,920
a lake that was drained and
covered up.
466
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,880
Tenochiklan was built like in
the center of the lake.
467
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,000
It's apparently very, very
beautiful.
468
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,520
The conquistadors dealt with
that.
469
00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:00,840
Though I will say the Aztecs
were very big fans of human
470
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:04,560
sacrifice, which is, you know,
I'm not a big fan of that
471
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:05,920
though.
I'm also not fan of the
472
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,720
conquistadors doing all the
things they did there as well.
473
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:14,920
But that was a long time ago.
Mexico City is a pretty cool
474
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,400
place to be living in at this
time in history.
475
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:22,720
While you know, it may someday
become for a little while the
476
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:27,080
kidnapping capital of the world,
this is actually with the police
477
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:31,120
are more or less in control,
there's no big riots or anything
478
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,960
going on.
It's a pretty cool place to
479
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:35,800
live.
Even when the war starts.
480
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,840
It's going to be a relatively
cool place to live, though.
481
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:42,480
The Nazis do try to get the
Mexicans involved in the war
482
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:46,320
against United States at one
point, but Mexicans do not find
483
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,720
that it's actually why.
Yeah.
484
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,320
Yeah.
It's actually partially why the
485
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:56,960
State Department funds the Walt
Disney Company to make all of
486
00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:02,040
those Saludo Savino Amigos
shorts with the South American
487
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,640
and Central American birds
hanging out with Donald Duck to
488
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:08,080
make Central South America like
us more so they don't join, not
489
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,600
funds back.
We've gone way off the rails.
490
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,760
But that's a that's a true, true
thing.
491
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:19,920
You land in lovely Mexico City.
What sort of outfits is
492
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:23,240
everybody wearing?
Depends on the weather.
493
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,720
It's warmer.
Everywhere we go is hot.
494
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,480
Yeah, most of the place we go
are pretty hot.
495
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:36,240
Yes, I will say the the fashion
here is mostly like that of most
496
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,680
other Western nations.
So Malta wasn't super hot,
497
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:44,160
though there's usually a little
bit more color in the outfits
498
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,520
that are being wore.
And you do see occasionally
499
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,440
people in more traditional dress
going around, but you see plenty
500
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:53,360
of people going around in
Western style suits, but those
501
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,600
suits often have bright colored
ties and stuff like that.
502
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,240
You don't see a lot of people
walking around in like all
503
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,840
black.
I think I might bust out a nice
504
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,280
shirt like burgundy color.
OK.
505
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:11,400
And I look amazing in burgundy,
like I look hot as fuck.
506
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,000
Great.
It is very warm here, so yeah,
507
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:19,200
you're going to be hot.
I don't think that's why.
508
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:21,720
I'm just being annoying.
Go on.
509
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:23,600
Yeah, that's it.
That's all.
510
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,200
I'm no.
I assume you're also wearing
511
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:27,800
like, you know, pants of some
sort.
512
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:32,720
Yeah, some light, some light
pants and like espadrilles.
513
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,440
OK, great.
What about the rest of the crew?
514
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,920
Just so we could picture what
you're doing as you're running
515
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,480
around before you get
vangoriously devoured.
516
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,680
Colin is looking forward to
getting vangloriously devoured.
517
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,160
So he's actually dressed up a
little.
518
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:52,600
He's wearing a button down
shirt, but I think he's wearing
519
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:59,560
a tie and not dress pants.
That's a little too much, but
520
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:01,160
decent pants.
OK.
521
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,720
You do you have any color in
this ensemble?
522
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,960
Green.
Green like green tie, green
523
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:10,840
pocket square sort of thing.
Matching.
524
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:13,960
Oh no, he's he's not wearing a
smoking jacket or anything.
525
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,040
He's just got a button down
shirt and a tie.
526
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:17,400
Right, right, right.
Sorry.
527
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:21,960
Shirt is green tie.
I'm going to say silver.
528
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,480
OK, OK.
Who else?
529
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,120
And long sleeve, short sleeve.
Long sleeve rolled up.
530
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:32,280
OK, so people will see the lack
of the hand.
531
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,480
Yeah, it kind of looks silly if
he didn't have them rolled up.
532
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,280
Yeah, would just sort of be
hanging.
533
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:40,600
I've got mine rolled up too by
the way.
534
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,840
Yes.
Show off my forearms.
535
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,640
Of course.
And you know what, With all the
536
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:50,440
Athletics points that he now
has, Colin is looking a little
537
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:56,720
more like he remembers himself.
This adventure is is really
538
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,920
awakened again.
It's also driven him to become
539
00:32:59,920 --> 00:33:01,360
more fatalistic about
everything.
540
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,520
But you know.
Hey, we all got to die Sunday.
541
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,480
Did you say Sunday or Sunday?
Sure did.
542
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,960
Asked and answered.
What about our other two?
543
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:20,400
Doctor Smalls is dressed very
similarly in Winston Rogers
544
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:24,640
office.
However, instead of a black tie,
545
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:29,440
their tie is not quite burgundy,
but like a dark red.
546
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,600
As they're walking off the
plane, they have their suit
547
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:35,760
jacket kind of slung over their
shoulder because it's warm here.
548
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:39,720
And JB.
JB has his overcoat like tied
549
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:43,920
around his waist and is just
wearing like the button down
550
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:49,200
shirt short sleeves with like 2
buns at the top undone and some
551
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:53,640
very unflattering shorts.
You got shorts even, OK.
552
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,920
It's warm.
JB learned his lesson, even if
553
00:33:57,920 --> 00:33:59,640
it makes him look fucking
terrible.
554
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:01,480
Yes.
OK.
555
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,200
You look like a goofus.
That's great.
556
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:09,600
OK. 100%.
All right, Well, you land at the
557
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:16,120
Mexico City International
Airport and you are heading over
558
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,560
to the Federal District of the
city.
559
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:22,520
And in the city center is around
where that heel box would be.
560
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,520
But Mexico City has several
districts.
561
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,440
It's a lovely place.
And when you get off the plane,
562
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,280
as you're getting your, you
know, pulling out your luggage
563
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:36,159
and whatnot, you see, just even
performing at the airport are a
564
00:34:36,159 --> 00:34:39,159
trio of mariachis.
And there's the people clapping
565
00:34:39,159 --> 00:34:41,239
along, throwing some money in
the hat.
566
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,440
It's good vibes here.
It seems like a pretty chill
567
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,159
city, which a very welcome
change from what you've been
568
00:34:47,159 --> 00:34:51,000
seeing lately I think.
Yeah, but like, give it 2 days.
569
00:34:56,199 --> 00:35:02,480
Hello there, boils and ghouls
and non boon Aries.
570
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:07,400
Daniel's Tread Tails is a free
podcast, and it will continue to
571
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,640
be a free podcast.
We can and have been doing this
572
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:15,240
without any payment because
we're in it for the love of the
573
00:35:15,240 --> 00:35:17,560
game.
But would the show sound better
574
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,080
with a real editor?
Yeah.
575
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:25,640
Could some of us use some sound
treatment or better audio
576
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,160
recording equipment in our
recording spaces?
577
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:32,280
Sure.
Would it be neat to have like
578
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,800
basic merch, like, I don't know,
like stickers or something?
579
00:35:36,240 --> 00:35:36,880
Maybe.
I don't know.
580
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,160
That's really a question for
you.
581
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,400
Let us know on the Discord.
Anyway, we're opening up a
582
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:46,760
Patreon to help us get money for
those things I just said.
583
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:48,960
And on this Patreon, you're
going to be able to find
584
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:54,080
everything we've ever remembered
to record in a handy audio
585
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,960
format.
This includes our monthly Twitch
586
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:58,560
streams.
Would you like that?
587
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:01,000
Just as a podcast?
Bam, you're going to get it.
588
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,840
We even got a couple of games
that never quite made it air.
589
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,560
You're going to be able to
listen to those secret episodes,
590
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,360
Lost episodes.
That's like, cool, right?
591
00:36:12,240 --> 00:36:16,080
And you're going to get a bunch
of fun little bonuses that
592
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,520
Russell might be working on
putting together bloopers and
593
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,480
stuff like that from previous
episodes.
594
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:27,840
And if you really want to hear
the bloopers, I guess you could
595
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:31,800
get raw mixes shortly after we
record.
596
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,000
That's right.
If you want to hear us, just do
597
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:38,760
the raw Daniels Dread tales.
You can listen to it and you can
598
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:42,680
hear our awful unfiltered sounds
as soon as possible.
599
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,200
The next episode.
If you want to hear it, it is
600
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:50,000
already up there in the Patreon.
It's got all the UMS the US, the
601
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:54,440
tangential banter, the brakes,
it's all in there, baby.
602
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:59,600
So if you want to help us out
with our hosting cost, listen to
603
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,960
episodes a little bit in
advance, even if they're going
604
00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:06,080
to be kind of messy.
Please check out our Patreon at
605
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:10,000
patreon.com/dread Tails.
We'll give you a shout out.
606
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,440
You can name some of our
characters.
607
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,880
It'll be a good time.
We hope to check it out Again,
608
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:21,160
that's patreon.com/dread Tails.
A little bit of a logistics
609
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:24,640
issue, nothing too much, but
what sort of hotel do you want
610
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:26,880
to be staying at?
Well, what's our credit rating
611
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,560
look like these days?
I don't know you guys tell me.
612
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,080
Mine's sitting at a four.
Alienists apparently do well
613
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:37,200
for.
Themselves, it's Doctor Smalls.
614
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,720
Yeah, fair enough.
Well, maybe we'd get somewhere
615
00:37:39,720 --> 00:37:40,960
nice.
Yeah, what's that?
616
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:42,880
Let's go somewhere decent with
like.
617
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,200
Somewhere they put the
cockroaches in suits.
618
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:49,760
Yeah, you go to a luxurious
hotel.
619
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:51,880
I don't know exactly the name of
it.
620
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:55,560
There's a lot of like really
nice hotels in the city proper.
621
00:37:55,720 --> 00:37:58,840
They're kind of what are known
as like mansion hotels.
622
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:04,040
They're sort of taken from
existing mansion, like big sort
623
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:07,440
of sprawling villas that are
turned into hotels in the
624
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:09,600
various rooms.
And you could get a couple of
625
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:13,920
really nice places, very
relaxing, get some good stuff.
626
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:18,320
Again, Mexico City, this place
rules right now.
627
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:21,600
It's a good, good place to be if
we want to make sure that
628
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,760
everything is set.
You want to go to like the
629
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:25,920
really nice hotel.
I will need somebody to spend a
630
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,040
point of credit rating.
This one's on me.
631
00:38:29,240 --> 00:38:31,040
We're all sort of spending our
money.
632
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,360
That's what the credit rating
is, but because you are
633
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,360
splurging a little bit to get
the really nice places, we got
634
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:37,760
to spend a little bit of credit
rating.
635
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:42,160
Theory the nicer of the hotel to
lower our chances of getting our
636
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:45,800
throat slit and our sleep so.
From what I understand, the
637
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,480
first place was very nice and
that got ransacked.
638
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,240
Well we got a refund for that
one, so it doesn't count.
639
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:56,040
This place is nicer, though.
This place is nicer.
640
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,440
We don't need to go through all
of the stuff about you getting
641
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:00,320
settled, but you're staying at a
nice hotel.
642
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,720
I assume we rented a car or
something.
643
00:39:03,240 --> 00:39:06,120
Yeah, yeah, you get a car.
There is public transportation
644
00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,000
around here, but yeah, rent a
car.
645
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,960
The streets are relatively busy,
but we're not talking about Los
646
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,000
Angeles traffic or anything.
You could get around pretty
647
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,240
easily in a car or on foot.
That's also a nice change of
648
00:39:16,240 --> 00:39:19,440
pace.
Travel has not been easy lately.
649
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,920
There's there's streetcars too.
What are their names?
650
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,120
They're expanding the streetcar
network, but there are
651
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,280
streetcars.
They don't have names, they are
652
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,200
not named desired nor anything
else.
653
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,280
OK, So yeah, what would you like
to do first?
654
00:39:32,720 --> 00:39:36,760
You know, I know when when we're
in Ethiopia, it was a little bit
655
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,160
more focused to try to get where
you were going to go.
656
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,760
Right now we're back into
investigation mode.
657
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,320
Baby, where do you go first?
Yeah.
658
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:47,440
What time of day is it?
Whatever time you want it to be.
659
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,400
Right after check in, yeah.
Thanks to be in the morning.
660
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:54,720
That's fine, yeah.
So, priority one breakfast.
661
00:39:54,720 --> 00:40:00,280
Let's find that disco place.
Lose discos, yes.
662
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:04,120
Record business.
Yeah, like light records.
663
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:08,120
Also, by the way, I guess I
should ask who speaks Spanish?
664
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:09,920
I do.
I do.
665
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,400
It's nice to have two people who
can, yeah.
666
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:17,560
Do I spend a point for that or?
You have as much languages as
667
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,800
you have in your language
rating.
668
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,600
So I don't need to spend a point
for it, but I'm limited to that
669
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:23,560
number.
Perfect.
670
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,600
So call it speaks Spanish and
Curran speaks Spanish.
671
00:40:27,720 --> 00:40:30,480
JB and Donovan don't speak
Spanish.
672
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:31,360
That is correct.
Who?
673
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,840
Excuse me, Doctor Smalls, Not
Donovan.
674
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:35,240
Who's Donovan?
You did.
675
00:40:35,240 --> 00:40:38,040
You've been dead for a while.
All right.
676
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,720
You said you're going to find
this loose discos.
677
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:44,360
How do you intend to do that?
We had an address right on the
678
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,800
record.
PO Box and everything.
679
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:51,520
You have the PO Box, yes?
No, no, that was the letter.
680
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,840
The actual record had an address
for a loose discos on it.
681
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:59,320
It did.
Let me check my notes on this.
682
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,560
I'm pretty sure you're only
supposed to have the PO Box.
683
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,560
Did I not just tell you the PO
Box when we did this before?
684
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:09,320
There isn't another address.
The the lose the lose discos.
685
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,480
It had the PO Box on the the
thing.
686
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:15,320
Yeah.
So don't forget you do have this
687
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:16,320
is something that gets
overlooked.
688
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:20,720
You do have access to libraries,
although you kind of have to
689
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:24,640
speak Spanish or at least read
Spanish to get the most out of
690
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:27,280
the libraries around here.
And you also have sort of your
691
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:31,800
one major lead that you have
from before, which is of course
692
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:34,680
the PO Box.
We should probably check out the
693
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:38,440
PO Box.
OK, yeah, sounds like a plan.
694
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,840
Would that be just at a post
office or they got some sort of
695
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:42,720
other?
Facility there.
696
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:46,560
Yeah, it is a it's at a big post
office.
697
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,080
This would be the Palacio
Postal.
698
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:54,960
It's the crown jewel of the
Mexican Postal Service.
699
00:41:56,720 --> 00:41:59,320
It the the architecture looks
really nice.
700
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,360
Unless you have architecture
skill, you just sort of look at
701
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:03,920
it.
You're like, oh, nice.
702
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,720
If you want to look at it more,
you can, but you probably just
703
00:42:07,720 --> 00:42:10,240
want to go inside.
Are there gargoyles on it?
704
00:42:10,720 --> 00:42:12,640
There are not gargoyles on it
though.
705
00:42:13,240 --> 00:42:14,320
Good enough for me.
Let's go.
706
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:22,040
The PO Box is just sort of
sitting in the wall of PO Boxes.
707
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:26,320
We don't have the key.
You do not have the key.
708
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:29,400
I look at Colin.
Do you want to take this?
709
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,240
Yeah, absolutely.
If you can cover for me, if we
710
00:42:32,240 --> 00:42:35,080
get access to it, all we're
going to have is this mail.
711
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,120
I meant talk to the nice person
at the till.
712
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,040
I also thought you were implying
me to pick the law.
713
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:42,720
That makes more sense.
Jesus Christ.
714
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,600
OK, it's not particularly
Hibbett.
715
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:50,600
It's just sort of in the middle
of all the PO Boxes.
716
00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:52,800
People are walking in and out
all the time.
717
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:59,480
I did not mean pick the lock.
Could you please go and talk to
718
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,560
that person at the tail because
you have more social skills than
719
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,280
I do.
Oh, sure.
720
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:08,040
Thank you.
As this going on, Donovan is
721
00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:12,080
hastily scribbling notes in.
His journal.
722
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:17,000
In his little notebook.
Yeah, you could write a book
723
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,040
about any individual person on
this team.
724
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:22,880
It's weird, though.
Those two seem to be arguing
725
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,120
like they're a married couple,
but that doesn't seem right.
726
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:34,520
Yeah, you could go up to one of
the attendants here who it's a
727
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:36,680
little harried, you know,
because things are a little
728
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:38,280
busy.
But again, I'm going to
729
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,120
translate all of this into
English, but says it's Spanish.
730
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:42,680
Hello.
How can I help you?
731
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:47,520
Hello, how are you?
I'm fine.
732
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,880
What can I do for you Donde?
Esta la biblioteca.
733
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:58,280
The library's back away.
Damn you, I was going to make
734
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:03,200
that reference.
Jokes aside, it's not bad to
735
00:44:03,240 --> 00:44:07,000
know that.
Yeah, and of the this ask in a
736
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:11,160
Lovecraft game donde esta la
biblioteca is about a horrible
737
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,720
thing to ask.
We're looking for somebody with
738
00:44:13,720 --> 00:44:16,960
a post box.
This number you got a letter to
739
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:20,120
deliver to him.
Yeah, we'll put it in the post
740
00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:21,480
box.
You're really supposed you're
741
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,080
not really supposed to do it
this way.
742
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:25,200
You just Is there a stamp on the
letter?
743
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:28,640
As it turns out, I'm just flat
broke, can't afford the stamp so
744
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:30,400
I'm just going to deliver it to
him in person.
745
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:35,560
That's not how this works.
I don't know how.
746
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:37,080
All right, I'll use reassurance.
Yes, it is.
747
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:51,440
Yes, it is.
Oh, Sir, I think I understand
748
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:59,560
what you're saying.
I there are, you know, I'd love
749
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:03,840
to help you.
There are transaction fees that
750
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:09,400
would need to happen though.
Is this person asking for a
751
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,120
pride even though I just said
I'm broke?
752
00:45:12,240 --> 00:45:14,840
Yes.
All right, I can work with that,
753
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:17,600
pull up my wallet.
It's like, all right, so who
754
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:23,000
owns this post box?
Let's see here, Brooks.
755
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:26,960
It's like a Brooks.
Brooks, eh?
756
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:30,040
Jonathan Brooks.
Jonathan Brooks, eh, is.
757
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:35,000
That all you wanted?
Let me go check go back to the
758
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,240
the rest of the team.
Let me go check all.
759
00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:40,240
Right.
Name's Jonathan Brooks.
760
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:43,600
I mean, at the very least we
would need his physical address.
761
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:45,560
Do we I?
Suppose not if.
762
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,800
We have his name and we.
Yes, Sir, he is.
763
00:45:50,240 --> 00:45:51,480
Yeah, we can look him up, huh?
Yeah.
764
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:58,480
By the way, the bribe that you
need to give pretty low the
765
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:01,320
dollar goes quite a ways here in
Mexico at this point.
766
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:03,360
Yeah, the conversion is like 2
to one.
767
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:04,880
It's good.
It's good for.
768
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:07,640
You all right?
So is it so low that I don't
769
00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:10,440
spend a credit rating on it or?
You don't need to spend a credit
770
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:11,360
rating on it, no no.
No.
771
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:15,600
OK yeah cuz the way that played
out, I pulled out my wallet
772
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:18,200
implying I would give a bribe
and then I walked away after I.
773
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:19,560
Got there.
You just walked away.
774
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:23,760
OK?
You didn't give the Yeah, sorry
775
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,760
if we didn't make that clear.
You know, you probably actually
776
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,440
had to go to the library real
quick to figure out like which
777
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:33,040
PO, which post office would have
had this PO Box in the 1st
778
00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,640
place.
And we didn't see that scene
779
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:36,880
though, because I was bored.
But.
780
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:38,920
You've seen we're about to do
that.
781
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:40,640
Yeah.
So I'll walk back over and say
782
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:43,400
thank you and leave them a
modest tip.
783
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:48,080
I mean, Brad, always tip your
postal worker all.
784
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:53,640
Right, Jonathan?
'S OK, Thank you.
785
00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:56,240
Yeah, they're not going to open
it for you.
786
00:46:57,960 --> 00:46:59,080
No, that's right.
We don't.
787
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:01,520
We don't need the contents of
it, I hope.
788
00:47:01,720 --> 00:47:02,960
Probably.
So that's fine.
789
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:06,200
OK.
I will say you could try to pick
790
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:08,200
the lock.
It also is APO box.
791
00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:12,680
It's not that hard to get open.
You just sort of hit it a bunch
792
00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:16,080
and yank it out and steal it.
It'd be pretty obvious though,
793
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:18,360
yeah.
I don't feel the need to do
794
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,400
that.
I love how the.
795
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:23,640
GM is giving us destructive
suggestions.
796
00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:28,680
Me too.
It just smells you hearing this.
797
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:34,120
Would you like to completely
fuck stuff up as soon as we
798
00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:36,680
arrive at a location?
Just just keeping our options
799
00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:39,640
open.
Clearly.
800
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:43,000
Let's go find that fucking guy.
Yeah, you know what, I'll give
801
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,640
you this.
Also on the card that she shows
802
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:47,920
you for Jonathan Brooks is a
forwarding address.
803
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:50,480
Oh, there you go.
Hey, there we go.
804
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:56,520
To the loose record offices.
Yeah, well now we don't need to
805
00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:59,000
go back to that library.
Wouldn't want to experience all
806
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:02,520
the strange things there again.
Yeah, the looks we got.
807
00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:06,800
Those creatures.
It takes you a little while to
808
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:11,400
get to the Lose Records offices.
It's in a different part of town
809
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,840
in a Poyocon, which is sort of
an arts district.
810
00:48:15,240 --> 00:48:19,000
Frida Kahlo is here right now.
Lots of great artists.
811
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:23,600
Leon Trotsky will retire here
before he is ICE picked.
812
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:28,840
And the place itself seems to be
on the second floor of a
813
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:30,760
building.
And it's sort of set up like a
814
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:33,360
like a motel.
Like you don't go into the first
815
00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:36,080
floor like you go straight up to
the second floor.
816
00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:38,680
There's a side stair that leads
up around here.
817
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:40,160
Looks like there's like a Taco
joint.
818
00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:43,440
Looks like there's a tax
preparation office underneath,
819
00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:46,760
or at least counts underneath
it, stuff like that.
820
00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:50,800
My people.
And there is a faded sign that
821
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,840
says whose records.
In English.
822
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:55,560
No, it wouldn't say it in
English.
823
00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:59,200
Yeah, it says lose discus is
what it would say because it
824
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,720
would be in Spanish.
But you're you're able to say
825
00:49:01,720 --> 00:49:04,080
that that lose records.
All right.
826
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:07,440
Well, I got a crazy idea.
I guess my question before that
827
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:11,000
happens, would you like to try
to arrive here near the end of
828
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:14,760
the day or wait till night time?
End of the day, see who leaves
829
00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:18,400
the place like just sit in the
car like all inconspicuous like
830
00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:21,800
and just look at the people who
are leaving the place.
831
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:25,680
OK, just four men sitting in a
car inconspicuously.
832
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:28,480
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, we don't all have to
833
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:30,800
fuck.
We don't all have to be in the
834
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,120
car.
One can sit on the bench or
835
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:35,640
something.
One can like, read newspaper,
836
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:37,240
smoke a cigarette, whatever you
know.
837
00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:40,560
Can we use the washer?
OK, I need each of you to make
838
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:42,760
it difficulty 3 stealth check.
Fuck.
839
00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:44,840
Oh, I don't have that.
Neither do I.
840
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:46,800
So I just roll straight.
Like you just have to roll
841
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:50,120
straight then.
Well shit, I'm sorry team.
842
00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:54,040
So for our listeners, what just
happened was Kearns and Colin
843
00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:59,400
Kane rolled sixes, while JB and
Doctor Donovan Smalls rolled
844
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:02,440
horribly.
Yes, OK, I rolled A1.
845
00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:03,960
I'm going to make a note of
that.
846
00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:11,560
Now, to be fair, the worst.
Thing your GM could say.
847
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:15,240
Doctor Smalls is basically just
kind of sitting on a bench
848
00:50:15,240 --> 00:50:16,680
smoking a cigarette at the
moment.
849
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:20,440
For the record, you see the
stores around sort of closed
850
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:22,600
down.
The accounting verb closes down.
851
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:26,040
The taqueria stays open, though
still, people are going in and
852
00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:29,360
out of there occasionally.
Nobody leaves the record
853
00:50:29,720 --> 00:50:30,960
company.
Perfect.
854
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,160
Also, as you're looking up,
there are no lights on.
855
00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:37,400
Well, can anybody else say front
business?
856
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,320
Is it Sunday?
Would they be closed on Sunday?
857
00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:43,920
It's not Sunday.
No.
858
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:47,160
It's Tuesday.
Probably not a long weekend
859
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:49,360
either.
OK, Karen, should I open this
860
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:55,320
one?
Might as well, although we
861
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:58,000
should.
Should we wait after like until
862
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:01,000
it's dark or?
I mean, it's starting to get
863
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:04,200
dark while you because you were
waiting around like that was the
864
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:05,760
idea.
Like you were waiting around.
865
00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:08,800
Nobody showed up.
The other businesses closed
866
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:10,560
except for the Taco joint across
the street.
867
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:13,520
OK, Yeah, sure.
Yeah, let's do it.
868
00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:16,920
I'll cover for you.
All right, we'll go do some lock
869
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:19,760
picking if necessary.
I don't know, maybe they left it
870
00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:22,200
unlocked.
There's some off the shelf dead
871
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:25,440
bolts on each door.
Either one could get you in.
872
00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:28,280
You could open it pretty easily
with locksmith though.
873
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:31,920
There's nothing fancy here.
However, opening it is going to
874
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:35,880
leave evidence that it was
jimmied open somehow, unless you
875
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:39,240
want to spend a point of
locksmithing to make it so your
876
00:51:39,240 --> 00:51:42,520
break in is not noticed.
Best to make sure there's no
877
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:44,080
evidence left behind.
There you.
878
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:47,160
Go.
All right, You make your way
879
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:49,440
inside the offices.
It's dark.
880
00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:51,720
Flashlight.
OK.
881
00:51:51,720 --> 00:51:54,000
We're doing flashlights.
We're not turning on the lights.
882
00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:57,680
I will use my low light vision.
Oh right, I forgot you were a
883
00:51:57,680 --> 00:51:58,640
dwarf.
Yeah.
884
00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:02,760
JB and Smalls, what are you guys
doing?
885
00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:06,160
I had already established that
Doctor Smalls was sitting on a
886
00:52:06,240 --> 00:52:08,560
bench.
Nobody came to talk to Doctor
887
00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:11,640
Smalls about this.
So he sees you go to the
888
00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:15,800
building and he's just gonna
continue sitting on the bench,
889
00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:18,440
conspicuously watching the.
Building.
890
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:21,720
What about you JB?
You going in?
891
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:26,920
I also failed myself Jack, so I
think I don't want to draw
892
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:30,080
attention to the break in now.
OK, OK.
893
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:33,840
So I will also stay outside for
now.
894
00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:36,080
You can give us a signal if
somebody is coming.
895
00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:39,080
Yeah, I'll make a bird noise.
You're busting out the
896
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:41,080
flashlights then?
Yep.
897
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:42,440
OK.
Yeah.
898
00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:46,320
OK, if people do see the
flashlights through the windows
899
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:48,680
of this place, that is going to
look a little suspicious.
900
00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:51,120
But also turning the lights on,
also suspicious.
901
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:56,040
So, you know, it's a single
large room, but there's plaster
902
00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:59,920
in case posts and wooden glass
separator walls dividing it to
903
00:52:59,920 --> 00:53:03,160
into four different offices.
The main thing you notice is
904
00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:05,320
that this place has been cleared
out.
905
00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:10,760
There are filing cabinets that
are open and empty as you're
906
00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:12,600
looking around.
There's a safe in the back.
907
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:18,080
It is ajar and cleaned out.
Desk drawers are open and empty
908
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,280
except for some staples, you
know.
909
00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:22,880
Staples.
Yeah, OK.
910
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:26,000
How dusty does it look?
Yeah, pretty dusty.
911
00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:29,040
Not like a decade's worth of
dust or anything like that, or
912
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:32,080
even a year's worth of dust.
But people were not in here
913
00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:35,680
earlier today, probably haven't
been here for you.
914
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:39,600
Got to give me a skill to tell
me if to get anything more than
915
00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:42,200
that.
I don't think I have any
916
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:44,000
evidence.
I'm sure I do.
917
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:46,720
Yeah.
Oh, you know what I just have.
918
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:49,000
I just purchased the Point of
Forensics.
919
00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:51,200
Perfect.
Yeah, this is exactly what
920
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:52,920
forensics is for.
Yeah.
921
00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:58,160
People haven't been in here for
at least a week, maybe 2.
922
00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:02,240
Well, that's a day wasted I
guess.
923
00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:07,240
So like, there's just nothing.
Well, there are some papers on
924
00:54:07,240 --> 00:54:09,760
the ground that were sort of
left behind as you're looking
925
00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:12,080
around.
What do the papers say?
926
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:15,960
A lot of it seems to be garbage,
really.
927
00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:19,240
A lot of like catalogs that are
addressed to this place, like
928
00:54:19,240 --> 00:54:22,320
trying to sell music equipment,
which is, you know, not super
929
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:25,360
useful.
And you see that the catalogs
930
00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:28,320
that are actually on the floor,
there's circles on them.
931
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:31,200
And it looks like like sort of
the scribbles in there.
932
00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:34,880
It seems like whoever was here
was trying to price out several
933
00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:37,000
albums.
Like, you see actually, like
934
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:40,120
some small math that he was
doing and figuring out actually
935
00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:44,640
in particular the production of
records like that is a big thing
936
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:47,640
that he was looking like, how
much would it cost to get
937
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:50,440
records produced?
Which place should I go to to
938
00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:53,280
actually produce these records?
Because like, this is a place
939
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:54,960
where maybe they would record
something.
940
00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:57,680
Actually, you don't really see
any recording equipment around
941
00:54:57,720 --> 00:54:58,840
here.
They probably weren't doing any
942
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:01,000
recording.
Or they moved all the recording
943
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:03,200
equipment.
Yeah, or they did that.
944
00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:06,320
You find an invoice in the
trash.
945
00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:10,520
It's greasy paper stained with
the red stains.
946
00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:12,560
Huh.
OK.
947
00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:19,040
And it's a invoice in Spanish
charged to Jonathan Brooks and
948
00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:24,120
Leticia de la Luz for last
minute production time at
949
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:29,640
Estudio del Manana, located at
1220 Morales Ave., just up the
950
00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:32,400
block.
Oh, I bet these guys are closed
951
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:33,720
by now.
Probably, yeah.
952
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:35,400
We should still pay them a
visit.
953
00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:37,200
All right.
Just just a second here.
954
00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:38,480
I want to check something.
OK.
955
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:42,160
So using accounting, looking at
these papers where they're
956
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,320
pricing things out, does it seem
like this place is the place
957
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:47,640
that they would have chosen?
Is it the cheapest?
958
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:50,760
It's the cheapest.
There you go, accounting.
959
00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:55,920
Yeah, looks like they were.
Yeah, but The thing is, it looks
960
00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:57,680
like he was comparing different
places.
961
00:55:58,240 --> 00:56:04,000
Oh, and also you find as you're
looking around a record, however
962
00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:07,120
it's broken in half.
Is it labeled?
963
00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:12,640
Yes, it says side one and side
2.
964
00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:17,360
Terrifying does not have a name
for the for the tracks.
965
00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,160
Well, I guess we should see
about getting this patched up
966
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:22,240
and driving our new friend
insane with it.
967
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:27,600
Colin.
Let's go see how good that
968
00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:30,720
studio really is.
All right, now your Marvel's
969
00:56:30,720 --> 00:56:32,600
doing, still rattling around
pretty good.
970
00:56:32,720 --> 00:56:37,640
Maybe you could listen to this?
Well I currently have like 9
971
00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:39,680
sanity and 10 stability so I
think I'm OK.
972
00:56:40,240 --> 00:56:42,440
Yeah, there you go.
You're horribly self medicating.
973
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:46,240
But besides that.
I mean hell, maybe This is why
974
00:56:46,240 --> 00:56:49,200
I'm perfectly stable, because
I'm walking around fucking
975
00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:51,880
euphoric all day.
Yeah, compared to Colin, who's
976
00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:53,520
raw dogging this.
Yeah, right.
977
00:56:53,840 --> 00:57:00,080
Not like mad respect but also.
Two people outside make a choice
978
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:05,000
on this because this is going to
be a hard one it and succeeding
979
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:08,480
is not necessarily necessary.
Difficulty 8.
980
00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:12,760
Sense Trouble Difficulty 8.
Sense trouble.
981
00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:16,680
Yeah.
You know what, I'll spend the
982
00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:18,760
two points.
You know what?
983
00:57:18,760 --> 00:57:22,080
I'll spend 3 points to possibly
succeed.
984
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:26,360
OK, just because you're you are
quote UN quote wasting those
985
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:28,160
points if you don't get it, but
give it a shot.
986
00:57:28,160 --> 00:57:30,760
I could roll a, you know, A5 or
A6.
987
00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:33,480
You could roll A5 or A6.
You're right haha.
988
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:37,960
I rolled A5.
Damn.
989
00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:40,840
The nice gods have smiled upon
thee.
990
00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:44,880
You realize that you are being
watched.
991
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:50,360
You catch a hint of somebody
with binoculars on a nearby roof
992
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:55,080
that seems to be mostly looking
at the record store, but has
993
00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:57,280
also in particular noticed you
too.
994
00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:00,120
And also because they are
staring at the record store,
995
00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:03,400
which now has flashlights moving
around in it, they've definitely
996
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,400
seen that as well.
OK, Doctor Smalls is going to
997
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:10,600
wave at them.
Oh, the person who's looking
998
00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:11,920
with the binoculars?
Yep.
999
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:15,640
OK.
That is an astoundingly Chad
1000
00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:20,200
move and I applaud you.
Yep, the person you again,
1001
00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:23,400
they're sort of a dark figure.
You can't really see because
1002
00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:27,320
it's, you know, dark.
But they look down at you, see
1003
00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:29,960
you waving, then you see the
figure run off.
1004
00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:32,280
A certain dominance.
Problem solved.
1005
00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:34,560
Incredible.
Shit.
1006
00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:39,320
Smalls has already endeared
himself to me immensely, yes.
1007
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:42,960
All right, that guy was not like
did not have like a stifer rifle
1008
00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:45,880
trade on you or anything they
say, but maybe only have but.
1009
00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:48,800
Which is entirely a good thing,
because.
1010
00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:51,680
Yeah, this guy.
They would have shot you.
1011
00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:54,520
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, a guy at the Taco place
1012
00:58:54,520 --> 00:58:57,360
sort of waves at you thinking
that maybe you were waving at
1013
00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:00,640
them.
You know what, Afterwards I go
1014
00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:04,960
over and I buy a a little meal.
OK.
1015
00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:08,400
You know what?
JB goes to join you, you know.
1016
00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:12,560
Holy shit, Kern's they got tacos
here.
1017
00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:15,640
Without us.
No, I mean in Mexico.
1018
00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:23,960
Boy, Colin's been real punchable
this episode, huh?
1019
00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:29,840
Currents is just going to raise
an eyebrow, call and go huh,
1020
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:32,640
weird.
As JB and Doctor Smalls sit down
1021
00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:36,240
with their food, Smalls is going
to just quietly be like somebody
1022
00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:39,280
was watching, by the way.
It happens a lot.
1023
00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:43,200
I can't say I'm surprised that's
happened before, but you can
1024
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:47,120
never tell whoever's watching
you is friendly or not.
1025
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:49,680
Usually it's been a friendly
actually.
1026
00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:53,320
It has been a friendly but like
don't always know that.
1027
00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:55,520
Yeah, last time we tortured a
guy.
1028
00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:58,960
I don't know if I would even say
it's usually been a friendly.
1029
00:59:59,160 --> 01:00:02,760
At least 60% of the time it's
been a not very friendly that's
1030
01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:05,760
been watching, I mean.
The night of Malta and the the
1031
01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:09,360
guy in Ethiopia were both chill.
And how many others had been
1032
01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:12,040
watching us?
Let's see, there's that time I
1033
01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:17,080
got kidnapped in Malta.
There's a private investigator
1034
01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:18,320
in Los Angeles.
Yeah, yeah.
1035
01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:20,560
There were.
AP guys in Los Angeles.
1036
01:00:20,680 --> 01:00:23,400
Yeah, yeah, fucked us up.
Yeah, they killed FK.
1037
01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:30,320
Yeah, yeah, the the guys in
Savannah, GA yeah, they mugged.
1038
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:31,600
US.
Yeah.
1039
01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:36,320
Like I said, at least 60%, yeah.
Well, now most of those people
1040
01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:39,840
are dead.
By the way, the guy who served
1041
01:00:39,840 --> 01:00:42,880
you sort of comes up to the did
you guys come out?
1042
01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:44,400
The other two come out of the
office.
1043
01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:46,640
Yeah, I think we met up at the
taqueria.
1044
01:00:46,720 --> 01:00:47,760
Yeah, that's what I thought.
Yeah.
1045
01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:50,400
They ask if you want anything.
Absolutely.
1046
01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:53,480
Yeah, they also ask like,
haven't seen you guys around
1047
01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:54,480
before.
Where are you from?
1048
01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:57,960
Up north, OK.
OK, I'll take a carton outside
1049
01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:00,800
the burrito, please.
OK, extra guacamole.
1050
01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:05,440
OK, Colin's gonna ask for
something spicy, not realizing
1051
01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:07,120
he's going to get it.
Not.
1052
01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:11,680
Besides the food being pretty
good, the guy running the
1053
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:14,920
taqueria seems friendly enough,
but you guys don't want to talk
1054
01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:17,600
to her, but that's fine.
And with that.
1055
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:20,480
It's nothing personal, you know,
it's just, you know, Kate
1056
01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:23,960
flirted with like one
construction guy and and.
1057
01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:28,800
Now she's dead.
So it's nothing personal against
1058
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:32,200
the Taco guy, at least in my
case, I'm just being cautious.
1059
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:34,880
That said, he might know
something.
1060
01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:38,960
Does the Taco guy look healthy?
He looks a little overweight.
1061
01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:43,120
You got an extra mouth.
Oh, no, no, he he does not look
1062
01:01:43,120 --> 01:01:46,640
like he is.
Yeah, he doesn't look like he's
1063
01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:49,560
drugged up or anything.
I'm giving that to you because
1064
01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:51,320
you have medicine, skill, like
looking at him.
1065
01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:54,240
This guy is overweight.
But yeah.
1066
01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:57,560
Doctor Smalls, you should ask
how his teeth are looking.
1067
01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:01,960
I mean, you mean ask me the GM,
not him, Yes.
1068
01:02:01,960 --> 01:02:04,040
You're not going to just ask him
Like, hey, what's up with your
1069
01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:05,120
teeth, dude?
No.
1070
01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:11,160
Yeah, no, his teeth seem fine.
Frank, are you still looking for
1071
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:12,760
vampires?
Vampires.
1072
01:02:14,920 --> 01:02:20,240
No what what I found is somewhat
scarier than any old Dracula.
1073
01:02:20,640 --> 01:02:23,000
All right, well, there was the
holy water, and now you're
1074
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:25,640
asking about people's teeth that
just a little in the dark.
1075
01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:28,920
I wasn't asking about people's
teeth, that was the person who
1076
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:34,680
was playing me, as you can
clearly hear from the difference
1077
01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:37,080
in our voices.
Renee, are you looking for
1078
01:02:37,080 --> 01:02:40,640
vampires?
Yeah, always.
1079
01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:46,680
Oh, fair enough.
Mr. Kern, if you have something
1080
01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:50,000
you need to speak about that
part of the reason why I'm with
1081
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:54,320
you gentlemen.
I'm going to go talk to the Taco
1082
01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:57,320
guy, OK?
All right.
1083
01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:03,560
I mean, I guess if we could ask
him about the the record place
1084
01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:04,720
so.
Yeah.
1085
01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:08,520
Can I get you something else?
I wasn't too spicy, was it?
1086
01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:11,560
I know you.
You don't look like you're a
1087
01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:13,080
local.
Sometimes this could be a little
1088
01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:16,480
spicy for out of towners.
Oh yeah, it was spicy all right.
1089
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,480
Woo, love.
Lovely stuff though.
1090
01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:21,600
My compliments to the chef
friend.
1091
01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:27,000
Amazing.
I'll take a a horchata and I pay
1092
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:28,800
like triple the price of the
drink.
1093
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:32,240
Oh, he does not.
He should flick with that.
1094
01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:34,080
He does not tell me that.
It's not too much.
1095
01:03:34,160 --> 01:03:37,000
You know what I mean?
Yeah, Yeah.
1096
01:03:37,320 --> 01:03:41,600
Yeah, no, we're, we're just here
to see some friends that used to
1097
01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:44,640
run this record store this lose
discos.
1098
01:03:44,800 --> 01:03:49,200
Oh, you were friends with them?
They haven't been around for a
1099
01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:53,720
while now.
Like God, it must have been a
1100
01:03:53,720 --> 01:03:56,320
month or something.
Now I saw them move it out a
1101
01:03:56,320 --> 01:04:00,480
bunch of boxes and I haven't
seen the lights on since then.
1102
01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:02,480
Fuck, I should not have said
they were friends.
1103
01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:07,240
Oh well.
They seem like interesting guys.
1104
01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:10,280
You know, they used to come in
here, talk about the music and
1105
01:04:10,280 --> 01:04:12,040
the great parties they would
have.
1106
01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:14,480
They promised to invite me once
or twice.
1107
01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:16,880
I don't know.
Yeah, no, you probably wouldn't
1108
01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:18,120
want to go to those kind of
parties.
1109
01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:22,600
Yeah, no, they seemed yeah.
Sloppy.
1110
01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:25,440
He seems a little nervous now
that you're talking about the
1111
01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:28,240
parties.
How much did you bribe him by
1112
01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:31,240
the way?
Like a credit rating about of
1113
01:04:31,240 --> 01:04:34,200
bribe.
Now that we're actually chatting
1114
01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:36,840
and I noticed that he's getting
nervous, I must spend a credit
1115
01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:39,720
rating.
OK, to make sure that he tells
1116
01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:43,160
you everything about it.
Yeah, I'm just going to slide
1117
01:04:43,160 --> 01:04:45,640
over 100 or something, I don't
know.
1118
01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:48,160
His eyes bulge out of his
sockets.
1119
01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:49,560
Yeah.
You're making this guy's, like,
1120
01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:51,080
month.
Yeah, God damn.
1121
01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:53,720
Yeah, for the record, it
probably wouldn't be 100.
1122
01:04:53,720 --> 01:04:56,600
It would probably be like those
are like 20 or something, but.
1123
01:04:56,800 --> 01:04:58,800
Yeah, I'm not sure the rate of
inflation there.
1124
01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:05,200
Exactly with the inflation, but
I know that they did drugs.
1125
01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:08,160
They did a a weird drug.
I hadn't heard about it.
1126
01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:09,440
I tried it once.
They called it.
1127
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:13,720
What was it, actor?
Do you say that?
1128
01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:17,080
Are you standing there?
Like, have you wandered up to
1129
01:05:17,080 --> 01:05:19,280
like, listen?
We're all at the same table,
1130
01:05:19,280 --> 01:05:21,200
right?
I thought she walked up to the
1131
01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:22,680
bar.
Yeah, She went up to the
1132
01:05:22,680 --> 01:05:24,240
counter.
She went up to the counter.
1133
01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:25,840
OK.
Yeah, sorry, I missed that.
1134
01:05:26,120 --> 01:05:28,160
I guess that she.
Kurds is a he?
1135
01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:30,800
Yeah, he went up to the counter
also.
1136
01:05:30,800 --> 01:05:32,720
You wouldn't understand it,
right?
1137
01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:34,640
True.
This is in Spanish.
1138
01:05:36,560 --> 01:05:38,400
Sitting at the table translating
everything.
1139
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:41,680
It was nectar.
That's what it was.
1140
01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:47,120
Nectar I even tried it one
night, but it was it was bad.
1141
01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:50,280
I didn't.
I felt good, but I felt bad.
1142
01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:54,160
Nasty stuff.
I felt all dirty and rowdy on
1143
01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:57,520
that shit.
I didn't I know they used to get
1144
01:05:57,520 --> 01:06:01,320
it from there were like little,
little parties that would pop up
1145
01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:03,960
on the street and that's how you
would get it.
1146
01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:06,440
Though I haven't seen those
parties lately.
1147
01:06:06,840 --> 01:06:10,280
I only I only took a little bit.
I never want to take any again.
1148
01:06:10,640 --> 01:06:16,240
They used to go do recordings
down at the Studio de Manana,
1149
01:06:16,280 --> 01:06:20,840
though they haven't been doing
that anymore either, so I don't
1150
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:26,120
know where your friends are.
Oh, no offense about the the
1151
01:06:26,120 --> 01:06:30,640
creepy stuff.
Oh, no worries there, No worries
1152
01:06:30,640 --> 01:06:33,040
there.
Any idea what happened?
1153
01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:36,240
Why the urgency?
I don't know.
1154
01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:40,880
All I know is they started,
they, they just loaded all of
1155
01:06:40,880 --> 01:06:44,400
their stuff and they left.
And the date he gives you for
1156
01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:50,040
when they moved it all out is a
week before you landed in Los
1157
01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:51,680
Angeles originally.
Interesting.
1158
01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:54,920
So a couple months ago at this
point.
1159
01:06:54,920 --> 01:06:57,520
Yeah, I I've been keeping track
of the exact dates on that
1160
01:06:57,520 --> 01:07:00,920
stuff, but it was they moved all
that stuff out a week before you
1161
01:07:00,920 --> 01:07:06,640
landed in Los Angeles.
All right, shit, I don't have
1162
01:07:06,640 --> 01:07:08,040
the brain for mysteries.
What?
1163
01:07:08,040 --> 01:07:11,440
What else should I ask?
I don't think he has anything
1164
01:07:11,440 --> 01:07:12,800
else to tell.
You OK?
1165
01:07:13,120 --> 01:07:15,200
Fair enough.
You gave enough money that he
1166
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:16,120
was going to tell you
everything.
1167
01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:20,720
All right, but did I give him
enough money that he doesn't
1168
01:07:20,920 --> 01:07:25,560
blab about us to anybody else?
Do you say that?
1169
01:07:25,600 --> 01:07:28,800
Spend a credit rating, I think
that's a safe amount to ensure
1170
01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:31,200
silence.
Are you going to say that to him
1171
01:07:31,200 --> 01:07:32,920
to like, hey, don't tell anybody
about this?
1172
01:07:33,280 --> 01:07:36,280
Yeah, yeah, I'm going to tell
him.
1173
01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:41,480
Well I you you seem like a stand
up fellow and I trust your
1174
01:07:41,480 --> 01:07:46,680
discretion.
Oh, of course, yeah, good luck.
1175
01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:49,440
He can't do the horchata.
I says honesty.
1176
01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:51,600
Is he going to talk?
He's not going.
1177
01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:52,640
To talk.
OK, cool.
1178
01:07:53,280 --> 01:07:54,840
If he was, what would you do
about it?
1179
01:07:55,160 --> 01:07:58,120
I don't know.
I mean like if this guy got
1180
01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:00,960
grabbed and tortured, like he
would talk, you know what I
1181
01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:03,040
mean?
But if so, he just like asked
1182
01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:06,440
him or something or he wouldn't
like volunteer the information.
1183
01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:10,720
OK, cool.
Yeah, I returned to the table
1184
01:08:10,720 --> 01:08:14,360
and relay everything.
Unfortunately not a ton of info
1185
01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:15,800
from that but you didn't already
know.
1186
01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:17,880
Though it does confirm that
nectarism play.
1187
01:08:18,760 --> 01:08:20,479
Yep.
Well, I guess we don't need to
1188
01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:22,520
stop at the other place tonight
then.
1189
01:08:22,880 --> 01:08:25,560
I mean, we might find something
out.
1190
01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:27,600
It's just up the street.
Yeah.
1191
01:08:28,359 --> 01:08:30,000
Well, I still got a point in
lock picking.
1192
01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:31,160
Let's go.
OK.
1193
01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:34,680
I think I should be the lookout
this time.
1194
01:08:35,399 --> 01:08:38,880
OK, it's dark enough that you
could make it over to the studio
1195
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:39,880
of tomorrow.
Pretty.
1196
01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:42,479
Like all of us, right?
I assumed everyone was going.
1197
01:08:43,080 --> 01:08:45,279
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
OK, cool.
1198
01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:49,800
It's a moderately sized
operation in an old single story
1199
01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:52,399
office.
It's in a relatively more modern
1200
01:08:52,399 --> 01:08:56,359
part of the city, and the door
is locked.
1201
01:08:56,800 --> 01:09:00,439
In fact, it looks like there is
a newly installed lock here.
1202
01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:05,520
Well, clicking it, click lock
pick time.
1203
01:09:05,840 --> 01:09:07,279
That's going to be the same
thing.
1204
01:09:07,399 --> 01:09:11,760
If you want to finesse it to
leave the lock in working order,
1205
01:09:12,319 --> 01:09:15,359
you could spend a point, or you
could just break the lock with
1206
01:09:15,359 --> 01:09:17,720
one point.
Like you're, you know, picking
1207
01:09:17,720 --> 01:09:19,359
it, whatever, but you're going
to break the lock.
1208
01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:21,840
I'll finesse it, don't need to
wreck people's property.
1209
01:09:22,279 --> 01:09:25,279
OK, make me a stealth check
difficulty 4.
1210
01:09:25,680 --> 01:09:31,680
All right, that is a four.
OK, you're able to get the door
1211
01:09:31,680 --> 01:09:36,080
open and nobody's noticed you.
Place has still been full
1212
01:09:36,080 --> 01:09:38,200
operation, so that's sort of a
miracle.
1213
01:09:38,800 --> 01:09:43,000
Well, it is nighttime, so.
So it's a little late to ask
1214
01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:46,160
this now, but were there any
lights on in the building?
1215
01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:50,720
No, however when you open the
door you do see a lights on.
1216
01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:54,400
Well.
I already said that I'll be
1217
01:09:54,400 --> 01:09:58,080
staying outside because I have
sense trouble out the wazoo so.
1218
01:09:58,960 --> 01:10:02,720
Well, time for Colin to go do
some more talking this episode.
1219
01:10:05,880 --> 01:10:08,960
Yes, I will surreptitiously
approach this light.
1220
01:10:09,480 --> 01:10:11,720
OK.
I'm assuming it's a desk light,
1221
01:10:11,720 --> 01:10:13,840
not like a fixture in the
ceiling or something.
1222
01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:17,000
It's it's a small lamp actually
it's a small floor light, but
1223
01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:20,920
it's not very bright.
It's sort of shorter and you see
1224
01:10:20,920 --> 01:10:25,120
that it is next to a couch.
It looks like this building has
1225
01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:30,400
two like recording booths and
also like a little office that
1226
01:10:30,400 --> 01:10:35,760
opens up into the office and you
see a man in short sleeves
1227
01:10:35,760 --> 01:10:38,200
sleeping on the couch.
Huh.
1228
01:10:38,520 --> 01:10:40,160
I'm not sure what to do with
this information.
1229
01:10:40,360 --> 01:10:43,120
He's not like wearing pajamas or
anything, but yeah, he is
1230
01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:44,760
asleep.
But if you keep doing stuff in
1231
01:10:44,760 --> 01:10:47,960
here, he will probably wake up.
But your successful stealth and
1232
01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:50,880
locksmithing means that you got
in without this guy noticing.
1233
01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:52,800
So I wonder if this is the
security guard?
1234
01:10:53,120 --> 01:10:55,600
He's not a very good security
guard, it seems.
1235
01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:59,160
It is a security guard, yeah.
Well, 90% of the job is
1236
01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:02,440
literally nothing happening.
Yeah, he's also not wearing like
1237
01:11:02,480 --> 01:11:05,240
a uniform.
Well, I guess I'll use some
1238
01:11:05,360 --> 01:11:08,000
evidence collection to try and
figure out what happened with
1239
01:11:08,000 --> 01:11:11,680
lose discos.
As you are looking around, you
1240
01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:14,320
don't really find anything
immediately as you're looking
1241
01:11:14,320 --> 01:11:16,120
around in here.
Actually, as you're looking
1242
01:11:16,120 --> 01:11:19,520
around, it seems like no
recordings have happened
1243
01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:21,920
recently.
Like you look at a schedule of
1244
01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:25,720
recordings and seems like no
recordings have happened here
1245
01:11:26,200 --> 01:11:30,120
for a couple months now,
actually, exactly to the day
1246
01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:33,560
that the lose records cleared
out.
1247
01:11:33,800 --> 01:11:36,000
Oh, actually, no.
A week before that, actually.
1248
01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:40,160
What was their last project?
It says lose records.
1249
01:11:40,840 --> 01:11:43,040
That makes sense, yeah.
And a chance there's a copy of
1250
01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:44,960
that around?
Not that you could see.
1251
01:11:45,840 --> 01:11:47,680
All right, now I'll go talk to
the other.
1252
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:50,240
So there's a guy in there, he's
sleeping on the couch.
1253
01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:53,200
I couldn't find anything, just a
just a quick check there.
1254
01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:57,400
Any ideas?
Talk to the nice gentleman.
1255
01:11:57,840 --> 01:12:01,040
OK, but no torture.
Who wants to go talk to him and
1256
01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:03,720
are you going to be like pulling
a gun on him or?
1257
01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:06,800
We did have to break in to like,
get in here.
1258
01:12:06,800 --> 01:12:10,320
So yeah, if we do talk to him,
there's no way it's going
1259
01:12:10,400 --> 01:12:13,440
peacefully.
Well, all right then, JB, you
1260
01:12:13,440 --> 01:12:17,240
look menacing over there.
OK, perfect.
1261
01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:22,520
Just like that.
This is a terrible idea.
1262
01:12:23,160 --> 01:12:27,920
About this, can you conceivably
make it so the lock is like back
1263
01:12:27,920 --> 01:12:31,680
in place and we just like knock?
I can think of a couple ways to
1264
01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:34,280
do that.
I mean it is possible to pick a
1265
01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:36,880
lock close?
You would spent the point so you
1266
01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:39,120
could do that, yeah.
And we pretend like we never,
1267
01:12:39,680 --> 01:12:42,040
never went in there.
Sure, click.
1268
01:12:43,160 --> 01:12:45,360
OK, you're going to go knock at
the door now.
1269
01:12:45,840 --> 01:12:48,640
Yep, Yep, like good boys.
Bang Bang, Bang, Bang.
1270
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:53,240
The shout of Vierda is so loud
you could hear it through the
1271
01:12:53,240 --> 01:12:58,000
door and as you hear a bit of a
thump on the inside as well.
1272
01:12:58,000 --> 01:13:00,640
He.
He rolled off the couch.
1273
01:13:01,040 --> 01:13:05,720
He fell off the couch.
And outside of that, you don't
1274
01:13:05,720 --> 01:13:08,280
hear anything.
Actually, you hear somebody
1275
01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:11,000
approach the door, but they
don't say anything.
1276
01:13:11,400 --> 01:13:13,520
Oh JB, stop being menacing.
I think you spooked him.
1277
01:13:17,440 --> 01:13:20,080
JB looks exasperated, as per
usual.
1278
01:13:20,360 --> 01:13:25,280
That's better.
JB never stopped looking
1279
01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:29,520
exasperated, for the record.
Do you try to knock again?
1280
01:13:29,520 --> 01:13:31,560
Do you say something Knock?
Knock, knock, knock, knock,
1281
01:13:31,600 --> 01:13:32,200
knock, knock.
There you.
1282
01:13:32,760 --> 01:13:35,960
Go.
A voice comes through and he
1283
01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:40,120
says I have told no one
anything.
1284
01:13:40,960 --> 01:13:45,880
You tell Mister Brooks, Mr.
Konolov, it's fine.
1285
01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:47,920
I'm not giving up any
information.
1286
01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:50,880
Please go away.
I think we should probably talk
1287
01:13:50,880 --> 01:13:53,160
to this guy.
Konolov.
1288
01:13:53,240 --> 01:13:55,680
Not a name you've heard before.
Is like a Slavic name.
1289
01:13:56,880 --> 01:14:00,840
Yeah.
I'm going to use a point of
1290
01:14:00,840 --> 01:14:03,360
reassurance.
You don't need to spend a point,
1291
01:14:03,360 --> 01:14:04,920
you could just say that you're.
Reassurance.
1292
01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:08,600
Yeah, OK, I'm going to.
I'm going to use reassurance and
1293
01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:12,920
I'm going to go.
We are, we don't mean you any
1294
01:14:12,920 --> 01:14:14,760
harm.
We're just here to talk.
1295
01:14:15,560 --> 01:14:18,640
Then I burst down the door.
Nobody has to get hurt.
1296
01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:23,120
I.
I grab Colin as he's flying
1297
01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:27,240
towards the door.
Nobody has to get hurt.
1298
01:14:27,560 --> 01:14:30,720
We're just going to talk and
leave you in peace.
1299
01:14:31,360 --> 01:14:33,840
Who are you?
Someone who doesn't want the
1300
01:14:33,840 --> 01:14:38,280
world to end just yet.
Come inside.
1301
01:14:38,280 --> 01:14:40,800
I don't want anybody to see you.
Come inside quickly.
1302
01:14:41,040 --> 01:14:41,960
Holy shit it worked.
Oh.
1303
01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:45,360
My God, I'm genuinely shocked.
OK, let's go.
1304
01:14:45,800 --> 01:14:48,840
And he opens the door and is
surprised to see four people
1305
01:14:48,840 --> 01:14:52,320
there.
He also has a shotgun like
1306
01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:55,440
pulled out and to get the door.
Hey, we met earlier.
1307
01:14:55,440 --> 01:14:58,520
You wouldn't remember it.
Colin, Colin, Colin.
1308
01:15:00,600 --> 01:15:07,000
Oh my God.
Is with you today.
1309
01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:10,480
He doesn't know the context.
For that, we're fine.
1310
01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:14,080
Doctor Small.
Just slowly face palms.
1311
01:15:32,440 --> 01:15:34,960
Thanks for listening.

If you're hearing this the week
1319
01:15:56,400 --> 01:15:58,880
it comes out, you've still got
time to submit questions for the
1320
01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:02,520
campaign up to this point over
on our Discord or our e-mail,
1321
01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:04,400
both of which you can find like,
two in the show notes.
1322
01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:07,600
Again, thanks for listening.
And until next time, if at first
1323
01:16:07,600 --> 01:16:10,440
you don't succeed, tell everyone
and let their bewildered stairs
1324
01:16:10,440 --> 01:16:11,640
be your consolation price.
