00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:23.559
Thanks for watching! Welcome to Agent's Dossier,

00:00:23.780 --> 00:00:26.600
a Delta Green actual play series brought to you

00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:30.620
by 12 Sided Stories. And now your GM, Wes Otis.

00:00:48.490 --> 00:00:51.250
Hello, Patreon listeners. Welcome to Agent Stassi

00:00:51.250 --> 00:00:55.329
A episode number 16. We have some wonderful players

00:00:55.329 --> 00:00:59.109
with us. Let's start with Mac. Hey, guys, I'm

00:00:59.109 --> 00:01:01.090
Mac. I'm going to be playing Desiree Kimball

00:01:01.090 --> 00:01:05.170
and things are ridiculous. Hello, I'm Saint and

00:01:05.170 --> 00:01:08.909
I'm playing Norman Morales. And hey, he's just

00:01:08.909 --> 00:01:13.510
excited and reserved. I'm Michelle Otis and I'm

00:01:13.510 --> 00:01:17.209
playing Perla Ayala. And she is trying to make

00:01:17.209 --> 00:01:20.790
sense of all of this craziness. Hi, y 'all. Jay

00:01:20.790 --> 00:01:23.790
playing Mars Paulson. And he just wants to punch

00:01:23.790 --> 00:01:27.549
something. Hi, I'm Pooja. I'm playing Robin Porter.

00:01:27.849 --> 00:01:31.370
And now that she knows what's happened, it's

00:01:31.370 --> 00:01:35.989
time to get revenge for what happened. Last time

00:01:35.989 --> 00:01:38.930
we all got together, you were checking out this

00:01:38.930 --> 00:01:43.209
tire factory in downtown Charlottesville, Virginia,

00:01:43.489 --> 00:01:45.750
that has been getting a bunch of chemicals going

00:01:45.750 --> 00:01:49.030
to it that seems to be tied to some explosion

00:01:49.030 --> 00:01:52.430
that happened in Edna Bay a few years prior.

00:01:53.980 --> 00:01:56.859
Basically, you're all separated at this point.

00:01:57.060 --> 00:02:02.060
Perla and Robin are at the dig site with this

00:02:02.060 --> 00:02:05.780
huge cube. They have been using pressure washers

00:02:05.780 --> 00:02:08.919
to clean it off. And they've cleaned it all the

00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:12.740
way down to the center. And there is a silver

00:02:12.740 --> 00:02:15.860
sphere just in the center. And they stopped all

00:02:15.860 --> 00:02:18.020
work because they're like, okay, what? the fuck

00:02:18.020 --> 00:02:22.099
is that thing? I believe that Perla was asking

00:02:22.099 --> 00:02:25.960
Agent Roos if she could run some tests on the

00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:29.560
bones. Meanwhile, Robin herself was getting kind

00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:33.180
of close to the bones. I wasn't sure if she was

00:02:33.180 --> 00:02:36.840
going to try and take a sample just for herself

00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:39.740
without anybody seeing, but that's kind of where

00:02:39.740 --> 00:02:43.099
we had ended that episode. So those decisions

00:02:43.099 --> 00:02:48.099
hadn't been made. Mars and Desiree, had been

00:02:48.099 --> 00:02:51.680
staking out the tire factory. They found out

00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:54.419
a couple of very interesting things, like there's

00:02:54.419 --> 00:02:57.259
a sniper turret on the back of the building that

00:02:57.259 --> 00:03:01.539
is hooked up to a separate power grid from the

00:03:01.539 --> 00:03:05.840
city. It's on a closed system. A really strange

00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:10.750
-looking tall man with long... jacket on, covered

00:03:10.750 --> 00:03:14.050
in bandages, showed up in an old clunker car

00:03:14.050 --> 00:03:16.949
that if you were to search it, you're pretty

00:03:16.949 --> 00:03:19.590
sure it would come back as totaled or gone or

00:03:19.590 --> 00:03:22.550
whatever. He came in, then a truck showed up,

00:03:22.610 --> 00:03:25.810
dropped off some stuff, and then left. And there

00:03:25.810 --> 00:03:29.030
hasn't been anybody since. Desiree has been hanging

00:03:29.030 --> 00:03:32.289
out on the street, kind of doing transient kind

00:03:32.289 --> 00:03:35.129
of thing, you know, drifter kind of thing, keeping

00:03:35.129 --> 00:03:41.050
an eye on the building. Mars has also been kind

00:03:41.050 --> 00:03:45.229
of scoping out the area. And then Norman has

00:03:45.229 --> 00:03:48.490
been looking up all the information, trying to

00:03:48.490 --> 00:03:51.169
find more information on the English cult that

00:03:51.169 --> 00:03:53.449
came over. It's the only reference that you have

00:03:53.449 --> 00:03:57.629
from 1697. They were making smaller cubes out

00:03:57.629 --> 00:04:01.710
of cat and dog bones, but nothing to the scale

00:04:01.710 --> 00:04:04.819
that you're seeing. The record is sparse, and

00:04:04.819 --> 00:04:07.060
it doesn't give you much. You found a symbol

00:04:07.060 --> 00:04:10.919
of a tree that seems to be connected. We were

00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:14.139
also checking out Norman Majestic, which that

00:04:14.139 --> 00:04:17.959
came up as one of the CIA agencies that was involved

00:04:17.959 --> 00:04:21.399
with the tire factory. There's layers upon layers

00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:25.139
of ownership. Plus, your boss... is spying on

00:04:25.139 --> 00:04:28.319
you. Yes, Shelly, right? Shelly sent over a couple

00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:31.540
of agents. They're in a van down by the river.

00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:35.220
Not really. They're right across the street.

00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:39.480
So you know that you're on their radar. That

00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:42.660
pretty much gets us all caught up to where we're

00:04:42.660 --> 00:04:46.759
at right now. Perla and Robin are at the dig

00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:51.680
site. Mars and Desiree are at the... main tire

00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:57.800
factory. Norman's in a Botel 6 setup, kind of

00:04:57.800 --> 00:05:00.839
going over the internet. You have all of this

00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:03.579
information. I guess we should go around. I think

00:05:03.579 --> 00:05:06.779
the most pressing one would be Perla and Robin.

00:05:07.019 --> 00:05:10.579
So Perla and Robin, they've worked their way

00:05:10.579 --> 00:05:13.279
down. Robin, you're really near the cube right

00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:16.540
now, and you see the silver sphere the closest.

00:05:17.149 --> 00:05:19.949
It looks like something's moving inside of it.

00:05:19.990 --> 00:05:23.050
It's almost like watery, almost like quicksilver

00:05:23.050 --> 00:05:26.870
or mercury. So it has a shimmer to it. Perla,

00:05:26.930 --> 00:05:29.389
you hear them stop work. They're like, whoa,

00:05:29.470 --> 00:05:33.230
whoa, whoa, wait. And so the bottom third of

00:05:33.230 --> 00:05:37.069
the cube is still covered in mud. They had decided

00:05:37.069 --> 00:05:39.250
that they wanted to just get it out of the ground

00:05:39.250 --> 00:05:42.490
as quickly as possible to move it to a site where

00:05:42.490 --> 00:05:48.199
if something goes tits up, it's okay. No, I think

00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:50.360
they're right to stop work. I'm going to call

00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:53.540
for everybody to back off, and we need to get

00:05:53.540 --> 00:05:56.699
a team out here with, you know, the thingies

00:05:56.699 --> 00:06:00.779
to... It's a technical term. The scientific thingies?

00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:03.860
The scientific thingies. Geiger counters, I guess?

00:06:03.980 --> 00:06:06.860
Yeah. Yeah, to measure if it's radioactive or

00:06:06.860 --> 00:06:09.540
anything, because I don't want any of us, you

00:06:09.540 --> 00:06:15.649
know, dying. Oh, are those teeth? Oh no. Exactly.

00:06:16.769 --> 00:06:20.970
And I go, Robin, Robin, we need to back away

00:06:20.970 --> 00:06:23.529
from this. I don't think this is safe. What does

00:06:23.529 --> 00:06:27.750
Robin do? I'm going to go back to Perla and tell

00:06:27.750 --> 00:06:30.170
her what I've seen. Like, it's like, it's more

00:06:30.170 --> 00:06:33.370
than not safe. There's something in there in

00:06:33.370 --> 00:06:35.209
the center of it. What do you mean something?

00:06:35.709 --> 00:06:40.149
I mean, it, it almost looks like a globe of Quicksilver,

00:06:40.209 --> 00:06:44.360
like a mercury. It, it. Weird. I mean, this isn't

00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:49.000
really my area of expertise. Mine either. Suddenly

00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:53.399
the cube starts to hum and vibrate. It just starts

00:06:53.399 --> 00:06:57.060
shaking kind of hard. How far back do you all

00:06:57.060 --> 00:07:00.180
back up from it? I'm just curious. I mean, the

00:07:00.180 --> 00:07:03.819
cube is 30 by 30, right? At this point, I think

00:07:03.819 --> 00:07:05.939
like a good, I don't know, half a football field.

00:07:06.060 --> 00:07:08.560
Like they've gotten like a containment zone going.

00:07:09.230 --> 00:07:11.410
So we would have gone to the edge of that. Okay.

00:07:11.529 --> 00:07:15.550
So these strange arcs, it's not lightning, it's

00:07:15.550 --> 00:07:19.350
something else, start to go between the bones

00:07:19.350 --> 00:07:22.470
and then it starts to kind of creep out. And

00:07:22.470 --> 00:07:27.209
almost like it's feeling what's around it. It's

00:07:27.209 --> 00:07:30.009
not random at all. It keeps getting a little

00:07:30.009 --> 00:07:32.670
bit further and a little bit further out. And

00:07:32.670 --> 00:07:34.889
Ruse is all like, all right, everyone back up

00:07:34.889 --> 00:07:38.149
further. You know, everyone backs up a little

00:07:38.149 --> 00:07:41.730
bit further and then it suddenly just dies. It

00:07:41.730 --> 00:07:44.009
just stops doing everything, just goes inert

00:07:44.009 --> 00:07:48.009
again. And someone shows up with a Geiger counter.

00:07:48.209 --> 00:07:50.949
There's no radiation at all. It's the normal

00:07:50.949 --> 00:07:55.430
background noise of living in the 2021s. Radiation

00:07:55.430 --> 00:07:58.769
isn't the only thing that could come off of an

00:07:58.769 --> 00:08:02.810
artifact of living matter. No, I agree totally.

00:08:03.009 --> 00:08:07.180
Yeah. And I feel like until we know what kind

00:08:07.180 --> 00:08:10.620
of reaction just caused that mini lightning storm.

00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:15.420
Is that what we're calling it? Because lightning's

00:08:15.420 --> 00:08:18.319
not that deliberate. No, I mean, I don't remember

00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:20.660
what that thing is. That is the globe that you

00:08:20.660 --> 00:08:22.980
put your hands around and the little like things

00:08:22.980 --> 00:08:26.759
like. Oh, yeah. Like a Tesla coil, not Tesla

00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:28.800
coil, but it's it's another Tesla thing. And

00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:31.139
I can't remember what it's called. Bruce says,

00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:35.399
I guess my worry is how the hell do we get it

00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:38.679
out of here without it killing a bunch of people?

00:08:38.759 --> 00:08:42.279
It obviously has some sort of energy in it and

00:08:42.279 --> 00:08:46.360
it could easily, it would wipe out a good chunk

00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:49.740
of the city. I mean, Edna Bay was, we were lucky

00:08:49.740 --> 00:08:53.559
only 300 people died there. So any suggestions

00:08:53.559 --> 00:08:56.940
at all from your team, I don't even know how

00:08:56.940 --> 00:09:00.169
to approach this. But we have to approach it,

00:09:00.190 --> 00:09:02.289
obviously, to get it out of the ground. Have

00:09:02.289 --> 00:09:04.710
you taken any samples from the cube itself? Not

00:09:04.710 --> 00:09:07.610
yet, no. Water didn't seem to do anything. There

00:09:07.610 --> 00:09:09.809
wasn't any reaction at all. And unfortunately,

00:09:10.070 --> 00:09:13.769
at the end of the day, we can't just leave it

00:09:13.769 --> 00:09:17.129
there because, you know, we have to do stuff

00:09:17.129 --> 00:09:21.110
to it. We just have to do stuff slowly. We can

00:09:21.110 --> 00:09:25.019
take a sample of it and see what happens. But,

00:09:25.019 --> 00:09:28.960
you know. My fear is that whatever it is in the

00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:31.759
middle is some sort of, I mean, for lack of a

00:09:31.759 --> 00:09:35.179
better word, magnet, but that it's collecting

00:09:35.179 --> 00:09:38.840
living things and holding it to it. It could

00:09:38.840 --> 00:09:42.360
be an organism. I mean, if this thing is as old

00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:47.580
as you say it is, or if it has an unknown chemical

00:09:47.580 --> 00:09:51.240
property that might react to something within

00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:54.710
bone matter. since all it collects is bones.

00:09:55.049 --> 00:09:57.330
But we don't know. We don't know if there is

00:09:57.330 --> 00:10:00.269
a contagion. No one should be in this area outside

00:10:00.269 --> 00:10:02.929
of, like, contamination suits at this point.

00:10:02.970 --> 00:10:05.389
You know nothing about it. We don't know if those

00:10:05.389 --> 00:10:09.370
bones were, you know, living beings before they

00:10:09.370 --> 00:10:13.049
were absorbed into this thing. Like, if they

00:10:13.049 --> 00:10:16.570
were alive when it happened. If you have a remote,

00:10:16.690 --> 00:10:19.250
I don't know, robot to try to take the sample,

00:10:19.350 --> 00:10:21.230
I think that might be your best bet. That's a

00:10:21.230 --> 00:10:24.929
good idea. Yeah, we can do that. Everybody here,

00:10:25.090 --> 00:10:28.710
let's get back further, and we're going to get

00:10:28.710 --> 00:10:32.269
suits for everybody, and we'll send a bomb squad.

00:10:32.730 --> 00:10:35.850
robot in to take a sample. All right, so I'll

00:10:35.850 --> 00:10:38.549
get back to you when they collect all that stuff.

00:10:38.610 --> 00:10:42.629
Let's jump over to Norman, who is in a Motel

00:10:42.629 --> 00:10:47.269
6 room. We've all been there. What is Norman

00:10:47.269 --> 00:10:50.169
focusing on right now? What things does Norman

00:10:50.169 --> 00:10:54.950
want to find out in his caffeine -driven conspiracy

00:10:54.950 --> 00:10:59.090
theory thing? Well, you are the conspiracy. You

00:10:59.090 --> 00:11:03.269
are the conspiracy. You're the NSA. Go ahead.

00:11:03.389 --> 00:11:05.909
What do you want to do? I imagine people who

00:11:05.909 --> 00:11:08.350
are part of conspiracy theories are just like

00:11:08.350 --> 00:11:12.350
so normal. Like their imaginations are like,

00:11:12.370 --> 00:11:17.669
no, like literally I am your nightmare. So, okay.

00:11:17.909 --> 00:11:21.090
The last thing that we found out was just the

00:11:21.090 --> 00:11:23.210
majestical thing. That was like literally, that's

00:11:23.210 --> 00:11:24.710
the last thing I have written down. Right. Make

00:11:24.710 --> 00:11:27.470
sure that's correct. Yeah. And I don't know.

00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:33.100
Did they call me from the tire factory or do

00:11:33.100 --> 00:11:36.179
I not know that yet? You do know all the information

00:11:36.179 --> 00:11:38.100
from the tire factory because they did update

00:11:38.100 --> 00:11:40.320
you. They told you it was a closed system. You

00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:43.179
check that out. So you have all that information.

00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:47.120
The turrets are on their own power grid. Right.

00:11:47.220 --> 00:11:53.220
OK, perfect. So at this point, I guess let me

00:11:53.220 --> 00:11:57.379
I want to see if I can. I want to I want to.

00:11:57.840 --> 00:12:01.500
craft my own wait well i want to make my own

00:12:01.500 --> 00:12:05.879
bug i've got crafting for microelectronics and

00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:08.659
i know that they're they're putting that the

00:12:08.659 --> 00:12:12.799
van on me very obvious van but of course i haven't

00:12:12.799 --> 00:12:16.700
gone shopping so i wonder if it's possible to

00:12:16.700 --> 00:12:21.080
use my microelectronics skill to roll for kind

00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:24.980
of diy -ing one and absolutely yeah roll all

00:12:24.980 --> 00:12:27.789
right I think I just did not make that. Yeah.

00:12:27.889 --> 00:12:30.549
Nope. Did not make it. I have a 40 and I rolled

00:12:30.549 --> 00:12:34.909
90 fail. So you try to use the stuff that's around

00:12:34.909 --> 00:12:38.549
the room and what you have in your kit and you

00:12:38.549 --> 00:12:41.309
just don't have enough. Do you want to pop out

00:12:41.309 --> 00:12:45.710
to the local electronics store to Best Buy or

00:12:45.710 --> 00:12:48.570
something and try to grab some components or.

00:12:49.549 --> 00:12:53.309
Yes. Let me, let me do that. I'm going to, you

00:12:53.309 --> 00:12:57.509
know, put on my low key. hoodie and dark colored

00:12:57.509 --> 00:13:02.590
pants and go, you know, kind of nondescriptly

00:13:02.590 --> 00:13:06.049
walk over to, I almost said Radio Shack. That

00:13:06.049 --> 00:13:09.929
doesn't exist anymore. Yeah, no. Oh, wow. And

00:13:09.929 --> 00:13:13.330
we're not in the 90s game again. Yeah. Where

00:13:13.330 --> 00:13:15.429
do people go for their surveillance equipment

00:13:15.429 --> 00:13:18.970
these days? Fries? No, Fries is dead too. Fries

00:13:18.970 --> 00:13:23.009
is gone. Yeah. Oh, no. The world is coming slowly

00:13:23.009 --> 00:13:26.870
to an end. Oh, no. Let's make one up. Just make

00:13:26.870 --> 00:13:31.090
one up. Jimmy's Electronics. We got all you need

00:13:31.090 --> 00:13:34.649
at Jimmy's Electronics. There's Battery Hut.

00:13:35.570 --> 00:13:38.570
That's a great name. Yeah, there's Battery Hut.

00:13:38.710 --> 00:13:41.809
Their slogan is for all your battery needs. That's

00:13:41.809 --> 00:13:44.309
not a front for the mob at all. In the Valley,

00:13:44.330 --> 00:13:47.990
we have all electronics. Oh, that's a great name.

00:13:48.429 --> 00:13:51.389
So you head out to one of those? One of those.

00:13:51.629 --> 00:13:54.629
Okay, so we'll get back to you in a minute. Mars

00:13:54.629 --> 00:13:59.330
and Desiree, it's daytime and everything seems

00:13:59.330 --> 00:14:02.850
to have died down completely. Like there's nobody

00:14:02.850 --> 00:14:04.889
driving in and out. It looks like an abandoned

00:14:04.889 --> 00:14:09.129
tire factory. No weirdness at all. How long do

00:14:09.129 --> 00:14:11.250
you watch it for? Is there anything in particular

00:14:11.250 --> 00:14:14.490
you'd like to do? All that good stuff. And we

00:14:14.490 --> 00:14:17.370
can say that you have radios. between the two

00:14:17.370 --> 00:14:20.289
of you that you can communicate with, surveillance

00:14:20.289 --> 00:14:23.710
-type stuff. Remind me, are we armed? Am I armed?

00:14:23.789 --> 00:14:28.370
I assume so. Yeah, you're armed. If you all want

00:14:28.370 --> 00:14:31.570
a gun, you can definitely have a gun. Yeah, I

00:14:31.570 --> 00:14:33.970
think they gave me one before. They gave you

00:14:33.970 --> 00:14:37.129
one, yeah. Hmm. I mean, there's nothing happening

00:14:37.129 --> 00:14:39.429
here, and there was no way to sort of track the

00:14:39.429 --> 00:14:42.929
car that came in, right? Right, no. You know,

00:14:42.950 --> 00:14:47.019
though, you could, if you wanted to, check out

00:14:47.019 --> 00:14:50.899
like maybe junkyards might be a place where you

00:14:50.899 --> 00:14:53.700
could talk to somebody because it was obviously

00:14:53.700 --> 00:14:57.960
something that they got from somewhere you know

00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:00.059
where it was supposed to be demolished or whatever

00:15:00.059 --> 00:15:04.820
and the bar does have an eclectic group of people

00:15:04.820 --> 00:15:08.500
who collect old cars and just pile them places

00:15:08.500 --> 00:15:11.419
i'm gonna fix this up one day and they just sit

00:15:11.419 --> 00:15:14.440
there so you could use that kind of contact it

00:15:14.440 --> 00:15:17.200
doesn't necessarily need to be an official government

00:15:17.200 --> 00:15:20.740
contact but that's one option i think desiree

00:15:20.740 --> 00:15:22.320
has checked out a little bit on what's going

00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:25.080
on because it's getting boring and has started

00:15:25.080 --> 00:15:30.899
surfing wedding planning sites and it's very

00:15:30.899 --> 00:15:35.259
enwrapped in her phone right i mean i feel like

00:15:35.769 --> 00:15:37.730
We don't have a particular mission to stay on

00:15:37.730 --> 00:15:39.889
this place for now. We may want to check it out

00:15:39.889 --> 00:15:42.370
later, right? Basically, you know that these

00:15:42.370 --> 00:15:45.009
chemicals are coming from here, and it seems

00:15:45.009 --> 00:15:47.789
to have some connection with the cube, and you

00:15:47.789 --> 00:15:51.509
all wanted to figure out what was going on. I

00:15:51.509 --> 00:15:54.669
think that there was... Maybe some thought about

00:15:54.669 --> 00:15:58.070
trying to get into there at some point and seeing

00:15:58.070 --> 00:16:02.370
what the setup was. But beyond that, you can

00:16:02.370 --> 00:16:04.809
go anywhere you want. You can check out anything

00:16:04.809 --> 00:16:08.129
you want. If Desiree wants to go check in with

00:16:08.129 --> 00:16:12.389
Sonia, she can. If Mars wants to do whatever.

00:16:12.830 --> 00:16:16.970
Or if you all are like, hey, let's figure out

00:16:16.970 --> 00:16:19.549
how to get into this fucking place and see what's

00:16:19.549 --> 00:16:23.549
what. I'm going to take a look. Is there, like,

00:16:23.590 --> 00:16:26.990
a front, sort of obvious front entrance? There

00:16:26.990 --> 00:16:32.110
is. Now, remember, it's surrounded in the city

00:16:32.110 --> 00:16:36.110
chain -link fence of, hey, this place is condemned

00:16:36.110 --> 00:16:38.929
kind of thing. But, yeah, there's an entrance

00:16:38.929 --> 00:16:42.330
where the guy drove through and the whole nine

00:16:42.330 --> 00:16:45.029
yards. Right, yeah, like, there's an entrance

00:16:45.029 --> 00:16:47.809
to the road that is open enough, right? Yeah.

00:16:47.929 --> 00:16:50.629
All right, so I'm gonna... Desiree, I'm gonna...

00:16:51.019 --> 00:16:53.940
Try the front door. I'm going to try to act like

00:16:53.940 --> 00:16:56.820
a regular person and see what happens. Ooh, acting.

00:16:57.019 --> 00:17:02.500
Okay. Okay, but before you potentially get shot,

00:17:02.700 --> 00:17:04.859
what do you think of this arrangement? Okay.

00:17:05.099 --> 00:17:09.200
Like, for flowers. Oh. I mean, it's a little

00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:12.759
busy, I'd say. It's a little much. Yeah. I feel

00:17:12.759 --> 00:17:14.200
like you want something a little simpler, a little

00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:16.680
more elegant. Classy. You're a classy person.

00:17:17.230 --> 00:17:19.789
Thank you. I appreciate you. Yeah, sure. No problem.

00:17:21.430 --> 00:17:23.390
All right. Let me go take a look. So, yeah, I'm

00:17:23.390 --> 00:17:25.950
going to like scooch back to where like the road

00:17:25.950 --> 00:17:29.430
is and then sort of walk down the road kind of

00:17:29.430 --> 00:17:32.230
in the middle. You know, it's daytime, daylight.

00:17:32.789 --> 00:17:36.109
I'm just like a guy in clothes walking in, not

00:17:36.109 --> 00:17:39.569
even creeping. And I have disguise, but this

00:17:39.569 --> 00:17:42.680
isn't really like a disguise, but it is. I don't

00:17:42.680 --> 00:17:44.720
know. Do you have performance or anything like

00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:49.440
that? Like any acting or, or psychology or anything

00:17:49.440 --> 00:17:53.000
that would go towards like, Hey, I'm doing a

00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:57.099
thing. I mean, disguise is the closest. Well,

00:17:57.220 --> 00:17:59.859
why don't we make a disguise role then? All right.

00:17:59.880 --> 00:18:02.319
Let me try. Let me try a disguise role here.

00:18:02.970 --> 00:18:05.710
Basically, you're trying to pass as not a competent

00:18:05.710 --> 00:18:09.390
Marine dude. Exactly. Just trying to pass as

00:18:09.390 --> 00:18:12.890
just a regular guy walking up the place. Can

00:18:12.890 --> 00:18:16.190
I assist? Sure. How do you want to assist? Well,

00:18:16.269 --> 00:18:19.269
my disguise skill is very high, so I want to

00:18:19.269 --> 00:18:23.009
be able to help, like, no, no, do this. Yeah,

00:18:23.069 --> 00:18:25.849
walk like this. So I'll give you an advantage

00:18:25.849 --> 00:18:28.450
on that then. Excellent. I was going to ask,

00:18:28.529 --> 00:18:31.240
did we drive here? We drove here, right? Right,

00:18:31.319 --> 00:18:33.880
it's not very far from the Motel 6, but you do

00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:38.220
have a vehicle. Cool. I want to go grab, on Desiree's

00:18:38.220 --> 00:18:42.299
advice, I want to go grab a gas can from the

00:18:42.299 --> 00:18:46.700
car. So I'm walking up with a gas can. All right,

00:18:46.720 --> 00:18:51.619
that is a 38. Okay, so with your advantage, you

00:18:51.619 --> 00:18:55.819
get an extra 10%, so that puts you at a 40, and

00:18:55.819 --> 00:19:01.119
you make the roll. Yay! Huzzah! So explain exactly,

00:19:01.259 --> 00:19:04.220
you have narrative control for a moment, what

00:19:04.220 --> 00:19:07.720
happens? So yeah, I come walking down the street,

00:19:07.900 --> 00:19:10.460
sort of in the middle, carrying my gas can, looking

00:19:10.460 --> 00:19:13.619
sort of confused and maybe a little, maybe with

00:19:13.619 --> 00:19:16.079
Desiree, smudged a little dirt in my face so

00:19:16.079 --> 00:19:17.839
it looks like, you know, I was working on my

00:19:17.839 --> 00:19:20.819
car. And I try to look for, look like I'm looking

00:19:20.819 --> 00:19:24.519
for the front door. All right, so you are able

00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:28.869
to get past the gate. relatively easy and you

00:19:28.869 --> 00:19:32.390
go up to the front door, you notice that there

00:19:32.390 --> 00:19:38.829
is a tiny red light that is shining down towards

00:19:38.829 --> 00:19:42.490
you. It's not actually on you. You realize it's

00:19:42.490 --> 00:19:45.950
there. It's obviously a scope light. You look

00:19:45.950 --> 00:19:48.569
at the front and you see that there are several

00:19:48.569 --> 00:19:52.710
little pod cameras that are tucked up. So if

00:19:52.710 --> 00:19:54.230
you're looking from the street, you can't see

00:19:54.230 --> 00:19:57.059
them. But they are recording. And you do the

00:19:57.059 --> 00:19:59.180
whole thing where you're kind of looking around.

00:19:59.579 --> 00:20:01.859
Yeah, looking around, knocking on the door. Hey,

00:20:01.920 --> 00:20:05.299
anybody in there? Need some help out here. You

00:20:05.299 --> 00:20:08.619
notice that the light turns off once you start

00:20:08.619 --> 00:20:13.099
talking. But you can see the camera kind of moving

00:20:13.099 --> 00:20:15.859
the bulbs a little bit, tracing where you're

00:20:15.859 --> 00:20:18.839
at. But there's no response from anyone inside

00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:22.950
of the tire factory. I try the door. The door

00:20:22.950 --> 00:20:27.190
is locked, and you notice that if you look through

00:20:27.190 --> 00:20:30.069
the crack, the center crack of the door, there

00:20:30.069 --> 00:20:34.190
seems to be a secondary metal door. This is a

00:20:34.190 --> 00:20:36.890
facade door, definitely. And when you try the

00:20:36.890 --> 00:20:39.089
door, you notice the light goes back on, the

00:20:39.089 --> 00:20:41.829
red light, and it just kind of tracks over to

00:20:41.829 --> 00:20:44.490
where you're at. So it obviously doesn't like

00:20:44.490 --> 00:20:46.690
you messing with the door at all. And that's

00:20:46.690 --> 00:20:49.170
okay. I mean, are there windows to look in? I'm

00:20:49.170 --> 00:20:51.369
just trying to, again, looking like I'm looking

00:20:51.369 --> 00:20:53.650
for help. I'm just looking for help. I'm just

00:20:53.650 --> 00:20:56.769
a regular guy. I didn't see no red dot. So you

00:20:56.769 --> 00:20:59.630
go over and you do the whole looking through

00:20:59.630 --> 00:21:03.309
the window thing. And it looks like a TV set

00:21:03.309 --> 00:21:05.410
where they've made the windows dirty as opposed

00:21:05.410 --> 00:21:10.029
to actual years and years. You do see movement

00:21:10.029 --> 00:21:13.920
inside. It looks like at least two people. You

00:21:13.920 --> 00:21:16.960
can't really make out much, but they're looking

00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:19.480
at what you think is probably a computer monitor.

00:21:19.819 --> 00:21:22.480
They're probably watching through the security

00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:26.480
cameras right now. I'm going to bang on the window

00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:28.740
a little bit. Just be like, hey, is there anyone

00:21:28.740 --> 00:21:32.539
in there? Hello? They don't respond, but you

00:21:32.539 --> 00:21:36.819
can still clearly see them. How long do you stay

00:21:36.819 --> 00:21:40.549
in the front? I mean, I'm sort of walking around

00:21:40.549 --> 00:21:43.309
the building looking for help. So, you know,

00:21:43.390 --> 00:21:45.890
sort of try the door, look in the windows, see

00:21:45.890 --> 00:21:48.430
if I can see is there a back door, you know.

00:21:48.589 --> 00:21:51.450
There's a back door and a loading area. And as

00:21:51.450 --> 00:21:53.130
you go around the whole thing, you notice that,

00:21:53.170 --> 00:21:56.150
like I said, there's turrets on every side. They're

00:21:56.150 --> 00:21:58.809
definitely following what you do. Desiree, you

00:21:58.809 --> 00:22:02.670
notice as Mars is going around this building,

00:22:02.849 --> 00:22:07.799
a cop cruiser. coming to the front while he's

00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:10.980
in the back. And it's obvious that they got some

00:22:10.980 --> 00:22:13.819
kind of disturbance call because they get out

00:22:13.819 --> 00:22:16.359
of their car and they're checking the front gate.

00:22:16.420 --> 00:22:20.680
They don't look like they are in the know. Like

00:22:20.680 --> 00:22:23.079
they didn't roll up, open the front gate, go

00:22:23.079 --> 00:22:25.819
in, park, that kind of thing. They're definitely

00:22:25.819 --> 00:22:28.900
checking things out. And you're watching this

00:22:28.900 --> 00:22:31.819
from, I imagine, a bit away so they don't see

00:22:31.819 --> 00:22:34.690
you at all. You know that Mars is in the back

00:22:34.690 --> 00:22:38.690
checking out everything. Yeah. Huh. I'm torn.

00:22:39.589 --> 00:22:42.670
Sorry, I'm thinking. Because I want to buy Mars

00:22:42.670 --> 00:22:45.710
a little bit more time. Okay. But I'd also like

00:22:45.710 --> 00:22:48.150
to not get arrested. You've done that before

00:22:48.150 --> 00:22:53.250
and Sonya doesn't like it. Yeah. Yeah. It puts

00:22:53.250 --> 00:22:55.910
a real hamper on things. I'm going to try and

00:22:55.910 --> 00:22:59.730
distract this cop, I think. Okay. And I think

00:22:59.730 --> 00:23:02.089
this is going to go very, very poorly for me.

00:23:02.509 --> 00:23:04.470
What kind of skill would you like to try to use

00:23:04.470 --> 00:23:08.289
for this? Well, I'm still in, like, my Hobo Joe

00:23:08.289 --> 00:23:13.250
getup. Okay. Hobo Joe. Is there debris around

00:23:13.250 --> 00:23:16.210
me? Yes, for story reasons, there's debris around

00:23:16.210 --> 00:23:21.369
you. I look for, like, a beer bottle. Okay. And...

00:23:21.369 --> 00:23:24.210
Wow, how big of a distraction are we going for?

00:23:25.009 --> 00:23:29.039
Okay. Just... Enough. I'm not going to like slam

00:23:29.039 --> 00:23:31.559
it against the bar and like cut the guy with

00:23:31.559 --> 00:23:33.859
it or something. You die today, motherfucker.

00:23:36.579 --> 00:23:41.420
All right. So, yeah. Yeah. Just enough to look

00:23:41.420 --> 00:23:45.480
like I am extremely not sober. All right. And

00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:49.579
I'm causing disturbance issues. Just kind of

00:23:49.579 --> 00:23:53.759
like. Lousy cops. Why are they coming up in our

00:23:53.759 --> 00:23:57.799
neighborhood and doing the thing? I don't understand.

00:23:58.019 --> 00:24:01.500
And just being like really disorderly about it.

00:24:01.579 --> 00:24:05.500
Not violent or anything, but like. Right. Belligerent.

00:24:05.539 --> 00:24:11.660
Yeah. Okay. So give me a, I guess, do you have

00:24:11.660 --> 00:24:15.900
a performance role or? I have persuade. Yeah,

00:24:16.059 --> 00:24:20.700
let's do persuade. All right. I got a 27 underneath

00:24:20.700 --> 00:24:23.880
my 70. All right, so you're making this big,

00:24:23.920 --> 00:24:28.359
loud ruckus. We're going to say that Mars actually

00:24:28.359 --> 00:24:32.619
hears it, and the cops turn around towards you.

00:24:32.779 --> 00:24:36.140
Hey, you, have you seen anybody walking in here?

00:24:36.539 --> 00:24:40.700
Just you. What are you doing here? Yeah, I was

00:24:40.700 --> 00:24:43.559
in the neighborhood. You know, being drunk in

00:24:43.559 --> 00:24:46.980
public is illegal, right? Yeah, well, your face

00:24:46.980 --> 00:24:50.019
should be illegal. Oh, let's see how that goes.

00:24:53.500 --> 00:24:58.400
They start walking over towards you, and one

00:24:58.400 --> 00:25:00.940
of them goes, Look, you haven't seen anybody

00:25:00.940 --> 00:25:04.460
come in and out of here, right? No, I... It's

00:25:04.460 --> 00:25:08.099
just a stupid old tire factory. Trust me, I wish

00:25:08.099 --> 00:25:10.220
I could get in there. I want to go sleep in there.

00:25:10.400 --> 00:25:13.940
It looks cozy and safe. And they look you up

00:25:13.940 --> 00:25:17.500
and down, and they go, Look, stop drinking so

00:25:17.500 --> 00:25:21.579
much. And then they walk off and they get in

00:25:21.579 --> 00:25:24.339
the car. And because you rolled really well and

00:25:24.339 --> 00:25:26.539
probably because you're white, they drive away.

00:25:29.920 --> 00:25:32.759
True story. I mean, if we're being realistic.

00:25:33.380 --> 00:25:37.900
True story. True story. I hate to say it, you

00:25:37.900 --> 00:25:40.259
know, but that's just the way it is. So they

00:25:40.259 --> 00:25:44.819
drive away. And you hear them, Mars, drive away.

00:25:45.359 --> 00:25:48.480
And again, everything's really quiet. You're

00:25:48.480 --> 00:25:52.279
in the back. At this point, you two, Desiree

00:25:52.279 --> 00:25:55.079
and Mars, should think about what the next steps

00:25:55.079 --> 00:25:57.619
are now that you kind of have a layout. You note

00:25:57.619 --> 00:26:00.480
that everything's a facade. They've rebuilt the

00:26:00.480 --> 00:26:04.450
inside completely. There's people in there. Checked

00:26:04.450 --> 00:26:06.369
out at least two people. There's a loading dock

00:26:06.369 --> 00:26:10.410
in the back for the chemicals and turrets on

00:26:10.410 --> 00:26:14.329
each side that are the snipers. Let's jump back

00:26:14.329 --> 00:26:20.049
over to Norman, who is going into, what do we

00:26:20.049 --> 00:26:24.009
say, Jimmy's Electronics? Jimmy's. You're at

00:26:24.009 --> 00:26:26.930
Jimmy's Electronics. We have all your electronic

00:26:26.930 --> 00:26:30.170
needs. All right. So it's the only fucking accent

00:26:30.170 --> 00:26:34.859
I can do. So you go in. And you're picking up

00:26:34.859 --> 00:26:36.859
all the stuff you think would work really well.

00:26:36.980 --> 00:26:40.099
And suddenly right next to you is one of your

00:26:40.099 --> 00:26:45.119
coworkers. And they go, hey. Hey. How are you

00:26:45.119 --> 00:26:49.779
doing? Doing great. You want to just tell me

00:26:49.779 --> 00:26:53.579
why I keep running into you guys? Well, there

00:26:53.579 --> 00:26:59.420
was a blip on your movement and somebody high

00:26:59.420 --> 00:27:02.690
up took a look at what was going on. That's what

00:27:02.690 --> 00:27:05.470
I know. But I also know right now they're in

00:27:05.470 --> 00:27:09.029
your Motel 6 room, bugging the shit out of it

00:27:09.029 --> 00:27:11.890
probably. So I wanted to let you know. They're

00:27:11.890 --> 00:27:13.910
going to pull you in sooner rather than later.

00:27:13.970 --> 00:27:17.450
So whatever you're doing, you need to do it fast.

00:27:17.789 --> 00:27:20.289
Because they haven't done anything yet. They're

00:27:20.289 --> 00:27:22.990
still watching. But I think they're being clumsy

00:27:22.990 --> 00:27:27.789
on purpose. Probably a bit of professional courtesy.

00:27:29.589 --> 00:27:32.490
probably to bring me in before they have to do

00:27:32.490 --> 00:27:36.049
any actual work. Correct. They want you to figure

00:27:36.049 --> 00:27:38.910
out what's going on for yourself and, you know,

00:27:38.930 --> 00:27:42.710
that kind of stuff. Anyway, you need to wrap

00:27:42.710 --> 00:27:46.730
it up or move locations or maybe not go back

00:27:46.730 --> 00:27:49.009
to that location. I don't know. It's up to you.

00:27:49.089 --> 00:27:51.450
But like I said, they're bugging it right now.

00:27:51.589 --> 00:27:55.410
So anyway, I got to go. Well, I appreciate the

00:27:55.410 --> 00:27:59.309
heads up. Maybe I'll see you in the office sometime.

00:27:59.890 --> 00:28:04.750
Hopefully, don't get disappeared. He walks off.

00:28:06.190 --> 00:28:08.430
Okay. It's one of those things where I'm like,

00:28:08.609 --> 00:28:12.329
I kind of thought I had a little more time, but

00:28:12.329 --> 00:28:15.349
I guess not. No, the second you were gone, they're

00:28:15.349 --> 00:28:18.890
like, Norman's out, he's gone, so fuck it, let's

00:28:18.890 --> 00:28:24.410
go. Gosh. Fools. Well, I guess that's what I

00:28:24.410 --> 00:28:28.710
get for going by the playbook. Now I'm thinking,

00:28:28.789 --> 00:28:34.250
though, why not leave some of them, some of the

00:28:34.250 --> 00:28:39.289
bugs that they plant in there and perhaps give

00:28:39.289 --> 00:28:42.130
a little bit of a red herring trail or is that

00:28:42.130 --> 00:28:45.529
a phrase? Yeah, I might. I'm not super uncomfortable

00:28:45.529 --> 00:28:48.130
with this, but it is annoying. I'm going to still

00:28:48.130 --> 00:28:54.519
buy what I need to buy. Probably need a new laptop,

00:28:54.660 --> 00:28:58.759
so I'm going to get one of those now that I'm

00:28:58.759 --> 00:29:02.299
here. I'm going to get a burner phone as well.

00:29:02.400 --> 00:29:06.680
Absolutely. Yeah. They have the new HBO back

00:29:06.680 --> 00:29:12.779
wire, the wire phone. Oh, perfect. Perfect. Hey,

00:29:12.940 --> 00:29:18.299
who says branding's all bad? Get your wire branded

00:29:18.299 --> 00:29:23.400
HBO phone. All right, cool. And, uh, you know,

00:29:23.539 --> 00:29:26.019
okay. If I've got, if they're really going in

00:29:26.019 --> 00:29:29.000
there and, you know, just contaminating everything,

00:29:29.200 --> 00:29:34.099
let me, I mean, should I just say, let me also

00:29:34.099 --> 00:29:38.779
get the components needed for, uh, a, like I

00:29:38.779 --> 00:29:41.390
was going to say, get a new modem. So I can do

00:29:41.390 --> 00:29:43.789
my own Wi -Fi. But is that a little tedious to

00:29:43.789 --> 00:29:47.789
talk about? Well, no. We can just say you get

00:29:47.789 --> 00:29:51.029
all the stuff that you need. And then when you

00:29:51.029 --> 00:29:53.009
make rolls, I'm not going to be like, well, was

00:29:53.009 --> 00:29:56.329
that on your shopping list? Can I see the receipt?

00:29:56.890 --> 00:30:00.789
Did you buy the right wiring? You get all the

00:30:00.789 --> 00:30:03.349
stuff that you need and you feel that that would

00:30:03.349 --> 00:30:06.930
be helpful. And then head back. Right. And I

00:30:06.930 --> 00:30:10.910
guess I brought a backpack with me. I can carry

00:30:10.910 --> 00:30:14.990
all this stuff because I walked here. So I still

00:30:14.990 --> 00:30:19.369
want to craft my own little, little bug. So why

00:30:19.369 --> 00:30:22.269
don't we make that roll then? Yes. Okay. So 10

00:30:22.269 --> 00:30:25.029
% advantage because you have all the right equipment

00:30:25.029 --> 00:30:27.930
now. Perfect. All right, here we go. So I'm going

00:30:27.930 --> 00:30:31.190
to do well. Yeah, I'll do, because I realize

00:30:31.190 --> 00:30:34.710
I have electrician as well, but probably microelectronics

00:30:34.710 --> 00:30:36.769
is better, and it's higher. Okay, that's fine.

00:30:36.789 --> 00:30:39.269
Either one, whichever one you like. All right.

00:30:39.470 --> 00:30:43.690
All righty. Ah, yes, I made it. It's 12 under

00:30:43.690 --> 00:30:47.250
my 40. So you now have a working bug that's hooked

00:30:47.250 --> 00:30:50.529
up to your brand new safe laptop that you just

00:30:50.529 --> 00:30:54.509
got. All right. And if I'm back in the hotel

00:30:54.509 --> 00:30:59.519
room, let me do just a sweep of... see if i can

00:30:59.519 --> 00:31:02.640
tell how many bugs yeah i can probably tell them

00:31:02.640 --> 00:31:06.039
there's your typical bug in the lampshade and

00:31:06.039 --> 00:31:08.680
you know all that there's they've got four bugs

00:31:08.680 --> 00:31:11.079
all together and then they tap the computer that

00:31:11.079 --> 00:31:14.220
you have hooked up so they're nice i'm assuming

00:31:14.220 --> 00:31:16.960
the the phone are there usually phones in motel

00:31:16.960 --> 00:31:21.220
sixes yeah now yeah yeah okay i'm assuming that's

00:31:21.220 --> 00:31:24.160
that's oh yeah but who the fuck uses it like

00:31:24.160 --> 00:31:26.420
right it's like they want to know my wake -up

00:31:26.420 --> 00:31:29.819
call desk yeah That's a Hail Mary. Like, you

00:31:29.819 --> 00:31:32.980
know, maybe somebody will use it. So you have

00:31:32.980 --> 00:31:35.720
all that information. We will get back to you

00:31:35.720 --> 00:31:37.980
in a little bit, unless you have something specific

00:31:37.980 --> 00:31:42.940
you wanted to do. I was think I'm just like roll

00:31:42.940 --> 00:31:46.119
happy right now. I I'll save it. I'll save it.

00:31:46.180 --> 00:31:48.140
Cause I want to talk to my, to my bros before

00:31:48.140 --> 00:31:50.700
I make the next decision. Yes. So yes, I'm cool

00:31:50.700 --> 00:31:53.460
for now. All right. So cool. Let's jump back

00:31:53.460 --> 00:31:58.140
over to the Dick site. Everybody is now. in contamination

00:31:58.140 --> 00:32:01.960
gear, hazmat suits, that kind of thing. They

00:32:01.960 --> 00:32:05.160
had a large tent system set up so that no one

00:32:05.160 --> 00:32:07.660
could see the cube from outside, but they put

00:32:07.660 --> 00:32:11.200
out a secondary further back barrier to keep

00:32:11.200 --> 00:32:14.779
people from coming any closer. You're all standing

00:32:14.779 --> 00:32:20.000
there, you all, meaning Robin, Perla, Agent Roos,

00:32:20.099 --> 00:32:25.200
and a few other of the bomb squad are within

00:32:25.200 --> 00:32:28.349
the first, like half a football field kind of

00:32:28.349 --> 00:32:31.789
thing. You're within the first level of clearance.

00:32:32.130 --> 00:32:35.829
There is no radiation, but they're worried about

00:32:35.829 --> 00:32:38.970
the electricity or whatever that power source

00:32:38.970 --> 00:32:42.549
is coming off the cube. And they send the robot

00:32:42.549 --> 00:32:46.410
forward and they start to take a little part

00:32:46.410 --> 00:32:49.980
of it and the cube starts to ramp up again. And

00:32:49.980 --> 00:32:52.319
it makes this horrible kind of shaking sound.

00:32:52.539 --> 00:32:57.839
And an arc of energy comes from the cube, hits

00:32:57.839 --> 00:33:01.599
the robot, and it arcs from the robot and hits

00:33:01.599 --> 00:33:06.180
a guy in a hazmat suit as if it was purposely

00:33:06.180 --> 00:33:11.220
figuring out where the waves from the controller

00:33:11.220 --> 00:33:14.519
were coming from. And it hits the guy for just

00:33:14.519 --> 00:33:17.220
a brief second, fries out the robot, and the

00:33:17.220 --> 00:33:20.539
guy falls on the ground. And isn't moving. Was

00:33:20.539 --> 00:33:26.039
his hazmat suit red? No. I am going to run over

00:33:26.039 --> 00:33:29.180
and attempt to perform first aid. Yeah. Okay.

00:33:29.480 --> 00:33:34.440
Emergency medicine business on our electrocuted

00:33:34.440 --> 00:33:38.859
van. Okay. So you run over, and the first thing

00:33:38.859 --> 00:33:41.900
you notice is something's really wrong, like,

00:33:41.900 --> 00:33:46.309
with physiology. When you grab... onto him to

00:33:46.309 --> 00:33:49.630
check his vitals and everything else. It is almost

00:33:49.630 --> 00:33:57.069
like he is a huge balloon of water. He's not

00:33:57.069 --> 00:33:59.470
breathing. You check for breath. Do you take

00:33:59.470 --> 00:34:03.609
off the hazmat suit? I mean, I think you'd have

00:34:03.609 --> 00:34:06.869
to. Yeah, I have to because otherwise you can't

00:34:06.869 --> 00:34:11.090
get to him. Right. Make a medical roll for me.

00:34:11.210 --> 00:34:14.230
Let's see. Is that right? Yeah, I have medicine.

00:34:15.000 --> 00:34:19.480
Yeah, let's do medicine. And that's a 26 under

00:34:19.480 --> 00:34:24.119
my 60. Okay. So you turn him over and he weighs

00:34:24.119 --> 00:34:27.139
a lot. Like suddenly you just feel like you're,

00:34:27.139 --> 00:34:30.880
it's like extra weight. He's not breathing. Do

00:34:30.880 --> 00:34:34.800
you do a chest compression or do you listen for

00:34:34.800 --> 00:34:36.829
a heartbeat? You're not hearing any heart. And

00:34:36.829 --> 00:34:39.469
when you touch him, it's like touching the side

00:34:39.469 --> 00:34:41.989
of a water balloon. It's just a door, you know,

00:34:42.010 --> 00:34:45.909
like a waterbed mattress almost. Yeesh. Human

00:34:45.909 --> 00:34:52.250
go -gurt. If he's not breathing and I don't hear

00:34:52.250 --> 00:34:54.070
a heartbeat, then yeah, I would start rescue.

00:34:54.369 --> 00:34:56.530
Oh. I will say rescue breathing, because I'm

00:34:56.530 --> 00:34:59.349
not going to, because the potential for contamination

00:34:59.349 --> 00:35:02.570
is still there. Like, I'm still in my hazmat

00:35:02.570 --> 00:35:04.969
suit, and I'm going to do chest compressions

00:35:04.969 --> 00:35:06.909
to see if I can get at least his heart started

00:35:06.909 --> 00:35:10.510
again. So you press down on him, and it pops,

00:35:10.710 --> 00:35:14.469
and all of this liquid comes spraying up, and

00:35:14.469 --> 00:35:18.679
he just... Like all of his muscles and the tendons

00:35:18.679 --> 00:35:22.199
and his lungs and everything else have liquefied.

00:35:22.219 --> 00:35:25.500
And you push down and you go straight to the

00:35:25.500 --> 00:35:28.420
ground and all of this like water just covers

00:35:28.420 --> 00:35:32.980
you. I need a resolve check for you and Perla.

00:35:34.280 --> 00:35:40.949
Oh God. Yeah. I've never regretted like. trying

00:35:40.949 --> 00:35:44.090
to help someone so much before my life. I'm just

00:35:44.090 --> 00:35:47.050
saying. Oh my god. It's like squeezing the middle

00:35:47.050 --> 00:35:53.690
of the toothpaste. I didn't make it. I didn't

00:35:53.690 --> 00:36:00.269
make it either. Oh, you both missed it? I feel

00:36:00.269 --> 00:36:03.230
like this is completely within bounds of me just

00:36:03.230 --> 00:36:08.469
being like, nope, nope, nobody know. I would

00:36:08.469 --> 00:36:11.909
agree with you. If I had made it, I think I couldn't

00:36:11.909 --> 00:36:15.210
do it. It would bother you even more? Like, why

00:36:15.210 --> 00:36:19.289
am I okay with this? All right, let me see here.

00:36:19.670 --> 00:36:21.590
Instead of a resolve check, we should make a

00:36:21.590 --> 00:36:25.210
con check. This is what the hazmat suits are

00:36:25.210 --> 00:36:26.949
for. Yeah, you're definitely going to fail that

00:36:26.949 --> 00:36:30.469
con check. There's no... The bar on that is real

00:36:30.469 --> 00:36:35.659
high, so... Throwing it up in a hazmat suit is

00:36:35.659 --> 00:36:40.739
not probably a fun thing to do. Nope. Nope. Oh,

00:36:40.940 --> 00:36:44.480
Nellie, no. So this is a pretty big deal. I'm

00:36:44.480 --> 00:36:47.599
rolling a 12 -sider, just so you know. I'm going

00:36:47.599 --> 00:36:50.659
to do it individually. So for Perla... Oh, shit.

00:36:51.820 --> 00:36:56.119
Perla, you take 12 points. Ouch. Yeah. With that

00:36:56.119 --> 00:37:01.380
kind of situation, the 12, 10 to 24 points loss,

00:37:01.659 --> 00:37:04.000
I take over the scene and tell you what happens.

00:37:04.159 --> 00:37:08.360
So you don't need to roll anything. I got you

00:37:08.360 --> 00:37:14.920
covered. Robin, nine. Yeah. So you both take

00:37:14.920 --> 00:37:20.059
a huge hit. Perla, you scramble back a few feet.

00:37:20.119 --> 00:37:25.000
You throw up in your hazmat suit. And just run

00:37:25.000 --> 00:37:29.179
as fast as you can away from the situation, trying

00:37:29.179 --> 00:37:32.980
to get your hood off and get free so you can

00:37:32.980 --> 00:37:36.079
run faster. We will get back to what happens

00:37:36.079 --> 00:37:38.579
with that later. Yeah, I think that sounds appropriate.

00:37:38.900 --> 00:37:45.639
Yeah. No, you're running in your puke. I don't

00:37:45.639 --> 00:37:48.139
know why. All I can think of is the scene in

00:37:48.139 --> 00:37:50.199
Stand By Me where they're having the pie -eating

00:37:50.199 --> 00:37:59.059
contest. Yep. Robin, you get to roll a 50 -50

00:37:59.059 --> 00:38:03.239
luck check to see whether or not you can handle

00:38:03.239 --> 00:38:07.019
this or if you have to roll on the reaction table.

00:38:07.360 --> 00:38:15.500
63. So reaction table it is. No part of this

00:38:15.500 --> 00:38:19.369
is going my way. This is what I get for trying

00:38:19.369 --> 00:38:23.210
to help people. Why don't you roll me a d6, please?

00:38:23.630 --> 00:38:26.969
I have one of those right here. three okay you

00:38:26.969 --> 00:38:32.469
freeze and you are just kind of stuck there looking

00:38:32.469 --> 00:38:36.530
at this goo that's all over this water that's

00:38:36.530 --> 00:38:38.730
dripping off your thing and everything else you

00:38:38.730 --> 00:38:41.869
can't move you're just floored that this has

00:38:41.869 --> 00:38:43.889
happened and that's where we're going to wrap

00:38:43.889 --> 00:38:51.159
this episode up thank you all so much All I kept

00:38:51.159 --> 00:38:53.519
picturing when she was going in to do the chest

00:38:53.519 --> 00:38:55.880
compressions was that scene from The Thing. Yeah.

00:38:55.880 --> 00:39:00.760
Yep. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. Pretty close. I

00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:04.210
was really going with RoboCop. When the guy falls

00:39:04.210 --> 00:39:09.969
into the toxic goo. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's

00:39:09.969 --> 00:39:13.269
