Trash Planet contains themes of desperation and
poverty. We portray a comedic, absurd and violent
world. For a full list of content warnings, please
see the episode description. We were under attack.
It is nighttime. Your eyes hurt. Like I think
most of you probably have masks on unless you
don't need them, Enla. You are tired. You just
had a crazy day. You were awoken and you were
attacked. I think three of you are on the roof
right now, sleeping in your tents. As we know
that... The air here is toxic, so you have no
choice but to sleep in your mask. So you're ready
to go in that sense, but you're probably feeling
pretty off balance in other ways. You've already
radioed your buddy Tank for help. So who is making
moves? What are we doing here? I think that four
bought you a little bit of time. Like you see
the two people up front, they see you, we're
kind of on even footing here. What's the move?
Who leaps into action? Lottie is still on the
roof. I want to say like Inla is in the restaurant,
so. She's made her way downstairs so she can
get a better look at what's happening. So let's
talk about how the inside connects to the outside
of this Greenman slice. Now we know that the
front of the building, so it's shaped like a
triangle, right? Big pizza slice. And there's
a pole under the sharp point of the pizza slice
that holds up the front of it. So it's a big
old, just a triangle that's leaning, right? Um,
so I think it is a couple stories, technically,
but because it is so janky and weird, there's
a couple of ways that you can go from inside
to outside and from above to inside. Um, so you
could like leap down the pole. Like you could
just fireman slide or you can go through the
building, um, come out from inside. Yeah. What
do you want to do? Leroy Jenkins is going to
go down that motherfucking bowl. All right. So
you just woke up. How well does this go for you?
Well, OK. What is your ultimate aim? Are you
going to go tackle these two people, or what
are you rolling for here? I'm just trying to
get them off of my property. I want them out
of my business. Get away from us. Do you have
any weapons? Are you going to fight them? And
what didn't really think this all the way through
here's the good news. We're in a kitchen. This
is true Yeah, she grabbed a big old fucking butcher
knife, right? Okay pulls up a big old butcher
knife has it like in her teeth and rolls down
the fucking pole Okay, so the scene is they throw
the thing bonk you're like Shit, shit. You hurl
up like a trap door. You wake everybody up. You
hurl up the trap door, disappear for a moment,
re -emerge, holding one knife in your teeth,
and I'm gonna give you another one in hand, maybe.
Yeah, thank you. These are not the nicest knives
in the world, but they're knives, tell you that
for sure. And then you just... You know, like
a beautiful fireman. The most graceful. The most
graceful. You are going to thunk down into the
earth. OK, so you're trying to intimidate, right?
Yes, intimidate. All right, so I might call that
a command roll. OK, the one I'm worst at. Good,
good, good. Important. It's important to do things
you're bad at. It's a two. So Lottie, the view
from your end is we see Enla roaring off, and
you see her blood is up. She's just sprinting.
We remember, listener, that Enla is like, Five
foot even, maybe? Like, Enla is, like, short,
and we know that. And so as you, like, squeegee
on down this pole, you hear... running. You hear...
You're shouting indiscriminately. What are you
shouting? What the fuck are you doing in our
house? Get the hell out of here! And then as
you're saying that, you just hear thunk, thunk.
And you are kneed in the gut, and then you are
slammed in the back with an elbow. So the really
big one, the one who's wearing body armor, is
just gonna fucking go for it. So unless you would
like to resist, you are gonna take a level of
harm here. Yeah, I mean, I would like to resist.
Okay, so I'm gonna call this some kind of physical
thing. So roll a resist with prowess. I got six,
motherfucker. Okay. I like to think that I was
like super lithe and like slippery and just kind
of like get out from underneath them. Okay, so
here I think we see some of that rovin like the
technique the ancient technique to survive in
a world That is bigger than you your clothes
are crazy, right? They're huge so they're voluminous
and they're patterned and they're dazzling and
so when you run up on her you just kind of look
like a shape and she goes for you and she just
Misses and you're like right to the side. So
no level of harm and no stress taken you fucking
nail it However, you are now on the floor next
to a big scale scary body armor lady and someone
who is wreathed in smoke in a spooky way. Where
would you like to throw the action? I want to
see what Lottie's doing. So I think after Enla
went over the edge of the roof, Lottie would
have panicked a little bit and started running
down the stairs because she's not going that
way. Probably a little too old for that. Yeah.
And she's probably going to start rummaging around
in the kitchen for something not belated that
she can use to defend the place because with
her insatiable hunger, she doesn't want to hold
something sharp. I'm gonna try to find something
useful that I can use, um, in the kitchen against
this. Okay, so we're gonna call this Risky Standard.
Would this be a roll, or would I have a good
enough lay of the kitchen? Well, what is your
ultimate aim? Like, your aim is just to find
something that is good for defense, or is your
aim to, like... Find something good for defense
that doesn't make me feel like my juice burn
is gonna make me accidentally kill myself. Okay.
Yeah, I'll call it a find roll. Yeah, that feels
about right. One. Well, well, well. Oh my gosh.
Untouchably lucky Nat. Do you want to resist
this or are you going to let it go? I should
probably resist this. Only you can say. It depends
on what it is. I mean, I guess if it's a find
roll, I feel like I'm just like not going to
succeed in finding things. I don't know what
the consequences are of finderall. So for the
listener who might not be used to this system,
we tell the player what could happen and then
they decide whether they accept that or not.
So what could happen is you're gonna go down
in the kitchen and step on something unexpected
and it's going to be, holy shit, a gunk snake.
Just the biggest fucking meanest, wettest snake
that is just in your kitchen, because again,
this is just a shack that we built. Like this
is not insulated. This is not pest proof. And
so you're like, oh my god, we're under attack.
You know, there's just a snake just up on you.
This thing is maybe three or four feet long.
It has a pattern on it that looks like somebody's,
you know when two cars scrape against each other
and it leaves behind both of their paint colors.
Like that's exactly how it looks, but also wet
somehow. And it looks surprisingly stupid. Like
I think it has like the bald eagle thing going
on where from the side they look really vicious
and scary. And then you see a gunk snake head
on and it's like boy, you know, like very, very
goofy. But yeah, this is a gunk snake, so. I
found a snake. Lottie's appropriately freaking
out. Is this attacking her? How's it reacting?
On a one, yeah, I think absolutely. I think on
a one, it would inflict a level of harm. I think
you would just immediately be bitten by a gunk
snake. Are you going to resist? Does that resist?
The snake's still there, right? I'm just resisting
the encounter that bites me, or? There's finding
the snake and there's the level of harm. How
about that? So you could choose to resist the
harm and still find the snake, or you could go
big and try to resist both. I'll accept the snake.
I'm just trying to resist the harm. Open your
heart to the snake, baby. It's beautiful. So
we're going to call this an insight resist. So
that entire column, the darker column on the
left of your insight scores, however many X's
you've got in the column, that's how many dice
you roll. Three three. Okay. All right. So you're
gonna take three stress is what that means because
it's always six minus whatever you roll and so
the snakes like whips out at you and you know
you leap backwards um really exciting stuff down
here big old snake in the mix everyone say hi
to gunk snake uh where would you like to send
the action i feel like it's only makes more sense
to see connie first because tank is off scene
so let's see incredible all right connie what
are you up to um from what i gathered uh enla
jumped off the roof and then was immediately
engaged in a fight with someone like immediately
at the bottom of that jump right? Yes. I'm going
to try and use some subterfuge in my approach
because now I've seen that there's a person attacking
Enla down there. How many other people are there
like visible from the rooftop? You've only seen
the two up front. Then I'm at the moment I'm
gonna assume there's only two. I would like to
throw my robe down first to maybe obscure this
person's vision and then jump on top of them.
Oh, cool moves. What would you like to call that?
It's got to be physical. I think it's a wreck
because I'm trying to take this guy down with
body weight. I'm going to accept either fight
or touch, I think, because I don't know if that
counts as wreck because wreck is like massive
physical harm, you know, overwhelming force.
Overwhelming. OK, you throw in a blanket on a
guy. All right. I'm throwing my body on a guy
using the blanket as a diversion. I think it's
going to be fight. I don't know if it's earned
a wreck. I'm equally terrible at both sides.
All right, we're calling this desperate for sure.
Yeah. And that's a two. All right. So I think.
immediately your cool robe move, which is a cool
move to be sure, not going to work. Robes kind
of sails off onto the dirt and like falls in
a puddle and you're like, ah, and then you're
already in midair and you just like thunk to
the side and do not affect the person in any
way. And then you are immediately like you're
on the ground and then you get kicked in the
head. So unless you'd like to resist, that's
what's going to happen. Kick me in the head.
Big leather boots, gong right in the knocker,
man. Really brutal. If you've ever been kicked
in the head before, it sucks. I have once by
accident in a martial arts class and it really
like, it was like, oh, this is bad. This is a
bad time. Anywho, yeah, level of harm. You got
your bell rung, whatever you want to call that.
Level one harm? Yep, level one harm. You are
now, but the good news is you're right next to
Enla. You're up in the mix. There's two people
here. Where do you want to send the action? What's
up? I want to continue this fight. So, endla,
I guess. Okay, well, let's just check in with
Tank, right? Because you should be able to enter
at some point. I'll let you choose. Do you want
to do a fortune roll where you have the possibility
to do a six? Like, if it's a six, you're just
there. Like, you just happen to be in the neighborhood
or whatever. Or you can roll a d4, and that's
how many turns have to go before yours. Let's
roll a d4. Okay, yeah. Incredible. Big money.
For the listeners at home, the dice just exploded.
It was bad. All right. Four turns. So it's not
the longest, but it also isn't right now. So
just briefly, we cut over it. What is Tank doing
on his journey to a ride? So cut to Tank. He
is in his room. He's making a collage. uh he's
cutting out stuff out of uh uh magazines and
putting stuff together what's it for i guess
we'll see uh but then he he gets the the page
and this is his moment i'm being called he leaps
up out of his seat uh he's he's wearing his crop
top but just tidy whities Look He is hung his
athletic shorts like the real like three inch
like Sophie Like all cotton shorts. He is hung
them by the side. So he just like jumps in Suspended
in the air He busts out the door and he starts
sprinting towards the screaming slice, but then
on the way there's just a really elaborate hopscotch.
To get through he has to participate. He stops.
He picks up a rock, he throws it, and he does
it, and he gets to the final run, he picks up
the rock, and he hops back. At the end of it,
there's three kids holding jump ropes, and you
have to do it a lot to get through them. You
have to do the triple dutch. Yeah, triple dutch.
Oh my god, yes. He finishes the triple dutch,
and then there's just two guys walking a pane
of glass. across the street, and then dives over.
Incredible. And then a parade of fruit cart stalls.
Isn't this also in the middle of the night? Yeah.
And then he gets to another street crossing,
and then there's just a train crossing that comes
down, and then he has to leave. All right, Tank
is fighting for his life. Tank is in a different
podcast we will explore in an eight -part miniseries.
And then cut back. OK, and then we cut back,
yeah. Where would you like to send the action
take? I will send it back to Lottie. Lottie versus
snake, baby! So I think Lottie has no idea if
the snake is part of the station or not. My god!
They've got pests! too. So she's gonna assume
the worst and think it is and that it needs to
get out. So she's gonna try to grab it. It may
take a roll to grab it, I'm not sure, but she
wants to run out the front door screaming with
it. Just like a lasso. Just like lasso and a
gunk snake. Pretty much. All right. Would you
prefer to call this touch? I don't know. Why
don't you sell me on what's gonna happen here?
Lottie, are you a snake charmer? Yeah, you're
so charming naturally. Like you could, I don't
know. I would love for that to be what Lottie
does right now, but she is kind of panicking.
Yeah. So I think it makes a little more sense
for her to do like a touch or fight. They're
the same for me. Yes, fair. Listener, Natalie's
luck has run out. I don't know. Well there was
a six in there, but unfortunately I don't have
good dice for this. Alright, so what's gonna
happen is the snake is going to bite you, is
the first thing, and then the second thing is
you're gonna hear a crash from the back room.
There's something happening in the back room
that I'm not telling you about, but basically
that thing will happen. Honestly, the snake still
feels like the smaller part of my problems right
now. Where's your stress level at right now?
Not bad. I didn't get a lot of stress during
the last mission. I got a juice burn, but not
a lot of stress. So I'm only at the stress that
I just got. I can probably handle resisting again.
As a reminder, you only have one more shot to
reduce stress coming up. But yeah, I'm not, yeah,
do whatever you want. I'm gonna go for it. I'll
resist the back room. Okay, let's just call that
an insight resist. Four. Four. So... You're only
taking two stress out of this. So the snake is
going to bite you. I think that you're going
to take one level of harm. And the thing about
gunk snake bites is that like like everything
on Trash Planet, gunk snakes are janky, right?
So their teeth aren't even like a clean punch.
It's like somebody hit you with a stapler and
then dragged it backwards. Like it's it's ragged.
You're like, oh, so where do you think it gets
you? Well, I was grabbing it. So probably the
arm. Okay, yeah, right on the arm. Brutal. Where
would you like to send the action? I want to
see what happens out front. But quick question
about the snake first. Did I completely fail
to grab it or am I holding it and it's mad at
me? That's funnier. Let's do that. You squarely
grab it. Success. It bites you so hard. Alright,
out front. Who would you like to send it to?
Emma first. All right, so I've successfully avoided
Big Armor Person. Yes. So I think my next move
is, which is not, I'm not great at it, but I
want to start to fight Big Armor Person. I'd
like to use touch to do so. Okay. And as a reminder,
during invasions, you can still argue for bonus
dice. You can't use flashbacks. And you have
a load of two. So if you want to invoke an object,
you can. But you just naturally have two that
are available to you. So I'm just saying. I have
my knives, so does that mean I'm already taking
one? Oh, OK. Yeah, I'll take a one. And you know
what? I'll give you one bonus dice for you have
a weapon and you're ready to go. Yeah. Fighting
with knives doesn't really touch, though, right?
I would say it's pretty squarely fight. Is that
squarely fight? OK, that's fine then, too. Yeah.
Yeah. Okay. Okay. So then how do I do this? Because
I don't technically have anything in fight. So
then I take two with one with the lowest and
then I would roll just one. Yeah. Since you got
the bonus dice for being ready to fight. My dad
would be so proud. He's a big knife guy. I got
a five. Okay. So is your goal to kill this person
or what? Um, it's at least to get them to like
stop coming at me. You know what is mad. She's
mad and she's like, fuck you. and goes off like
a feral fucking cat. So yeah, she's ready to
kill. It's like that stab, stab, stab, stab,
stab kind of thing. Oh man, scary. Nifty Allah
husband hotel vibes. Yes. Okay, so on a five,
you get some good hits in. You're feeling this
knife go in and out. It's punching through flesh,
which is always weirdly easy. Yeah, it's... scary
and you smell hot blood and this person grunts
under you and you're just like jeez it you know
like we're in it baby however on a five still
mix six i mean that is a success but you still
have something else to worry about so you don't
see anything you don't hear anything but all
of a sudden you are just choking the air leaves
your lungs you cannot breathe there's like this
kind of like white Vapor smoke thing that's just
starting to choke you out here You can roll to
resist if you would like otherwise, you're gonna
take level one harm choked Are you do you have
any level ones right now? No, you have no harm.
Okay. Yeah, so I would like to resist that so
that's prowess. Absolutely That's a three so
I gain three stress. All right three stress.
You don't take the harm However, you do see this
like it's just smoke rising off this other person
So this person you've been fighting like they're
big and body -armored this other person is just
wreathed in smoke They look really skinny and
you're like Uh -oh. Like, yeah. Where would you
like to send the action? I want to send it over
to Connie. But first, we cut to tank. Oh, sorry.
I'm so sorry. The gates lift up. He starts sprinting.
He turns the corner. Oh, no. There's a ticker
tape parade. Cut back to Connie. Connie, what
are you up to? Connie is on the ground, uh, and
has the, you know, the cuckoo birds, uh, just
circling around his head, but they're, uh, actually
a ticker tamper. Oh my god, there's Tank running
around Connie's head! Yeah, anyway. Uh, but no,
uh, upon seeing the violence from Endla and getting
probably some blood on me as a result, uh, I
think I'm gonna get up and consider that guy
dealt with. and charged the one who is wreathed
in smoke. Okay. I think I'm gonna say something.
Yeah. I would like to say what why are you here?
This other figure turns to you and like through
the smoke like it's truly just like coming out
of her skin and so you would know you take one
look at this you're like juice burn crazy juice
burn and you would guess that like the intensity
of this this isn't like a slight juice burn that
you know she's gonna wear off in a little bit
this is like a permanent one or you know something
like that this is deep impurity baby and she
laughs and she's as if you don't know you little
bitch um and so are you gonna fight her what
are you gonna do yeah i think so so desperate
for sure also maddie your role was also desperate
like you're in hand -to -hand combat for your
life so desperate standard okay rolling fight
i'm not gonna fight Did you just roll a one?
That is a one! No! Oofa doofa, baby. I think
you're gonna take a level two harm unless you
choose to resist here. And in addition, on a
one, something's gonna happen in the house that
you don't know about, or in the screaming slice.
I'm gonna try to resist the harm to me. Okay.
Prowess? Yes. I resist. Bad stuff happens inside,
but I think we have Lottie on the inside, so
we should be okay. Okay, okay. What could have
happened is she would have grabbed you and gotten
really close to you and opened her mouth and
smoke would have like rolled over your head and
your body and you would have choked the fuck
out. You would have incurred a lot of damage.
You maybe would have had a lasting problem from
that. That's not what happens. What happens instead?
Yeah, I think, uh, it's sort of a dance of her
trying to grab me and then me, like, using what
parts of my robe I can to, like, blow away the
smoke and then trying to grab her back, but neither
of us gets, like, a position of purchase on the
other. Nice. Okay, you realize in this moment
that you're, like, a skinny person wearing cloth
robes, and that's also what she is. Like, you
have that, like, she has the scary smoke stuff
going on, but you're, like... Okay. Okay. You
kind of get your feet under you. So cool moves.
Where do you want to send the action? We cut
back to Tank. Tank is weaving. He's bobbin. All
throughout the parade. He gets to the other side.
It's like a breath of fresh air. He's very close.
He pulls out like a Gatorade sport bottle. It
has a masking tape on it that says special juice.
And he squirts it into his mouth. Wow. What does
it taste like? It tastes like chalk. And slime
mixed together. Bad, I don't like it. I think
you see an old man who's like, my cat, my cat
is stuck on this fire escape. Young man, won't
you help me? I don't really have the time, but
of course, I'm a hero to all people. In one sentence,
how do you get this cat to help you? I just look
up and go, hey, hey. It just, like, jumps into
your arms. Just, like, perfectly. Anyway. I walk
up to the old man, cat cradled in my arm. Here
you go, sir. Thank you. I've been so hungry.
It kills the cat, just goes for the neck, fights
in. You're just like, oh! Tank is devastated.
We cut back. Where would you like to send the
action? I'll send it to Enla. OK, Enla. So violent.
Sorry, it's a brutal world. and gets back up
and how is the armored person? Looking bad, like
still alive, but stumbling and like got stabbed
a lot. Like, you know, the majority of like stabbings
in prison cases are not lethal, you know, like,
cause it's very shallow. And like, even if there's
a lot of stabs. Unless you get to the kidneys.
Yeah. Well, hey, this person's wearing body armor.
So ha ha. So still alive, not doing great. I
don't know. Do you want to keep fighting? Are
you still trying to fight me? Ooh. Or are they
walking away? This is your call. In the moment,
this is happening so fast that, yeah, I think
it's up to you. But I'm picturing me on top of
them. I've kind of attacked. In that case, I
think they're smacking at you. They're trying
to get you off. All right, then I'm going to
keep stabbing. Jesus, OK. Listen, Roman life
is brutal. OK. I was going to say, like. I feel
like we've gotten past the point of talking.
They have made several attempts on our lives.
This is not gonna be a conversation. At this
point, Enla just sees red and it's like, you're
going down. So I guess that's another fight.
I'll tell you what, I don't even think you're
gonna roll for it. I think if you want to kill
this person, you just make the decision and do
it. I don't know if it's a choice that Enla makes.
I think it's just like a rabid thing. She just
keeps going. Okay. Does that make sense? Like
it makes sense. Like, I mean, you're in the heat
of the moment. Like you're reacting, you know,
it's not like endless sensor for money. It's
too, it's too in the moment. Crazy. So I'm picturing
you are straddling this person. You're on top
of them and it's just like gone, gone, gone,
gone. Like aiming for the throat, like nice in
both hands. Oh, geez. Okay. Have you ever killed
someone before? No, rabbit. Not you, the player!
Not you, man! Come on! No, Enla! Enla has never
killed a person. She's definitely killed a lot
of creatures. When you're out in the Robins,
or up in the upcountry with the Robins, there's
a lot of big creatures out there that you kind
of have to take care of. Not just gug snakes,
but also like... In that moment, yeah, as the
knife is coming down, flashing in neon from the
streetlights, we cut back over to you and your
dad, and you're out there in the upcountry, just
cloth blowing in the wind, huge textures and
patterns, bright, colorful, blasting sun overhead,
and... You're watching your dad writhing on the
ground with, it's called a fox finger. Uh, it's,
it's a lot of like tentacles and like finger
type stuff on bottom. Um, and it's pretty big.
It's like three feet long. And so they like get
on you and then they just like try to like eat
you from the inside. Like they're looking for
your holes and shit. It's real bad. And you're
watching him like stab, stab, stab, stab, stab.
And he's got like glowing green blood all over
him and he's like hucks it off. And he's like,
it's us or them baby. It's them or it's us. You
got that? Yeah, daddy, we never die We never
fucking die and then we cut back and you stop
and you look down and this person Like and you're
just like, oh, this is a woman. This is I've
killed a woman This is a woman that I've killed
a human It's a human being and the knife falls
from your hand and you've done it Yeah, and let's
gonna have a little bit of a mental crisis in
this moment. So I'm gonna pass Also, how far
does take live away We cut back to Tank. He's
so close. He can feel it. He's running. Out of
the corner of his eye, he sees a chalkboard.
The chalkboard, it has a problem. A problem that
no one has seemed to solve. Oh my God! The building's
pretty dirty and you're like, maybe I should
go to the building, but man, this chalkboard.
He stops. You see Tank. He starts scribbling.
The music's getting really intense. His brow
is really furrowed. He takes a step back. Robin
Williams is there, he claps you on the shoulder.
And then he takes off. But we don't follow Tank.
We see another man. He walks up. He looks at
the chalkboard. This is the dumbest shit he's
ever seen in his entire life. I think I'm still
locked in combat with this person, but I think
since I'm no longer in a desperate position,
question mark? I want to try and find this person's
uh I want to try and find a weakness or a way
I can exploit their juice burn against them I'm
gonna see if examine works for this okay I don't
know I feel like that might be too I might be
pushing it well I think I would let you do it
but you wouldn't be able to act on it on the
same turn right right so I think I need to act
I don't think I have this luxury Yeah, I think
I'm going to try and get the drop on them by
using their own smoke against them because I'm
sure it's impeding visibility. Does this person
have any sort of eyewear that might? Nothing
like that. No, it doesn't seem like they're like
mouth or eyes covered, which is also interesting.
That means they can breathe the atmosphere, but
yeah. Yeah, they're breathing smoke 24 -7, so.
Yeah. But yeah, I think I'm gonna try and slip.
away and get the drop on them by trying to hide
within the smoke, like, juking and taking a back
step so that they're hidden in their own smoke
and can't see through it. Sick. Okay, would you
prefer to call that sneak or fight? I think it
would be sneak. Okay. Yeah. Sneaky move. Let's
do it. We're gonna call it risky standard. That's
a four. All right. So are you seeking to strike
this person? Like you're trying to incapacitate
kind of thing? Yeah, if I can. Yeah. Okay. So
you're going to successfully do that. The consequence
is, you're going to hear a deafening crash in
the building. So that would be something that
happens. But yeah. What do you want to do? I'm
going to try to resist. Yeah. How close are you?
If I take four stress, I'll be traumatized. So,
and now that I've said that, I'm definitely going
to run the run. What am I rolling to resist though?
Yeah, we're gonna call it Insight. Insight Resist.
Five. Really, really. Fate smiles upon Connie
and his little purple robe. So you take one stress
instead of the many that you could have taken.
You said little purple robe when I pictured like
a little like house robe. Like, Connie has his
cool guy robe and he has his tired guy robe,
okay? What does it look like when you get her?
So I do a juking backstep and she gets lost in
her own smoke. thinking that I'll be in one place
and not in another. And using that momentum where
she's trying to grab me, I sort of jump on top
of her, almost like a judo move where because
she's already lunging towards a location, I just
use that to tackle her to the ground. And I think
at this point, I probably have my knee on her
back and completely in a position of power. Okay,
I'm gonna say. you take her out like yeah she's
down she's not dead or anything she's like barely
even injured but she is not a physical fighter
so you got her pinned and you've resisted the
consequence so hell yeah uh where do you want
to send the action i think ladi we haven't seen
the inside of this place in a long time ladi
and the snake are braiding each other's hair
uh they're really close by this point yeah so
at this point right now there's a snake it's
teeth are in my arm it's loosely coiled around
my arm there's a noise in the back right yeah
you just heard a little noise yeah I think I
need to go check that out in a panic. So I'm
going to do that with snake hands. On the way
through the kitchen, I think what Lottie is going
to do is grab a pair of tongs and she is now
using them to snap at the snake so it bites at
the tongs and not her, but it's still on her
arm. So she's just distracting it and running
to the back. I wish D &D had points of inspiration.
I wish we had an equivalent, because that rules.
That's so funny. So is your aim just to investigate
what's going on in the back room? Okay, what
you see is So you parked the the nice skimmer
in the back room, right? And right now there's
a woman on it and she has the key in the ignition
and Like the garage is down So you realize that
the crash that could have happened was her blowing
up your garage with the guns that are mounted
on the front and just driving away So she is
in position to leave like she's mounted. She's
ready to go. The thing is on so that's what's
about to happen happen here. So she's in like
the driver's seat? Yeah. Can I throw the snake
at her? Bitches hate it when I throw the snake
at them. Okay, so the snake is entangled and
it has bitten you, so I think disentangling the
snake. I think it's no longer bitten into me
because I'm sort of fighting it, but it's definitely
on my arm. You are now physically wrangling the
snake. I would accept this as either a touch,
fight, or wreck. Well, they're all the same for
me. Okay, yeah, let's do it. We're gonna call
this desperate limited. Like, I don't know. Also,
the goal of throwing it is like, oh shit, there's
a snake on me. I can't focus on driving and leaving.
So like, that's the idea. Okay, flinging it,
you know. I'm just imagining, have you ever tried
to throw a rope, like even if it wasn't alive,
like just like throwing a rope where you want
it to go is like hard. And so if it is an angry
rope, this is a difficult thing you're doing.
I actually used to dance under that name. The
angry rope they called me. Okay. I got a four.
So lucky. She's back baby. She's back. So what's
it look like? So it's only a four. So it's not
like it was a perfect throw or anything. So Lottie
awkwardly like stumbles sort of like in front
of the vehicle to sort of like just delay kind
of get in the way a little bit. At least make
the person have to like commit to like drive
through her or something. And just kind of chucks
it over the front of it. And it probably like
the things that like scratch her a little bit
on the way. And it just kind of like arcs over
and lands somewhere near the driver's seat. Cool
moves, cool moves. That is what happens. What
also happens, unless you resist, is that Moe
Giddy's gonna say, fuck! And then is going to
just jam the gun because she was going to shoot
her way out of here. Like she was just gonna
blow through the wall. So actually what happens
is she reflexively stomps on the gas and just
sort of crashes forward with no plan. Not even
fast enough to really make a dent, but it would
hit you and it would hit the wall. So it would
like pin you against the wall. unless you want
to do something about it like badly or like i'm
no like low speed um just stuck yeah just stuck
i wouldn't call it a level of injury even it's
just well maybe i would do you have any level
ones yet i just got a snake bite oh yeah okay
um i think you have two level one slots right
um i would call it a level one and i'd say pinned
i'm okay with that i think okay all right so
at extremely low speeds Lottie, you are slammed
against the wall. The machine is there. She is
screaming at you. There is a snake in the cockpit.
You've successfully solved your snake problem,
which is cool. So you should be proud of yourself
for that. And also, mark XP for your desperate
roll, because hell yeah. That's in the playbook,
right? No, that is for whatever you rolled. So
I think that was probably a prowess. Yeah, cool.
So where would you like to send the action? Is
tank an appropriate answer? We cut back to Tank.
Tank is 100 feet from the screaming slice. He
can see the smoke, he can see the battlefield.
All of a sudden, a man in a high -vis vest and
a construction hat walks out with a sign that
says, Detour, and points back. And Tank looks
at it and he goes, I guess them's the brakes.
And he turns left. He makes a right, a left,
another left, another right. And he ends up...
He's back in his apartment. We cut to a traumatized
Enla. Enla, what are you up to? Enla is shell
shocked. not in the literal sense of shell shock
but in the sense of emotional shell shock because
she's just staring at this person that she has
killed effectively and is like kind of rushing
in the realization of like holy shit because
while she did grow up in the rovans and things
are pretty brutal she never ended up actually
killing any person or hurting any person just
critters you know critters so she's just kind
of in a state of disbelief and everything kind
of is muted all sounds are a little weird because
she's very dissociating at this moment Out of
curiosity, does the commotion in the screaming
slice raise any concerns? I don't know that it
would because we just had it like clunk into
the side of the building, you know. You look
down, you realize this lady had a purple necklace
on. It was just like a dumb little like charm
on it or something. I'm going to snatch that.
Damn. OK. And unless something's something seems
to be happening in the garage. I'm too busy with
this. Person hey fuck you and let's just like
blinking into reality someone's inside the screaming
slice. Oh Oh shit, okay, and it kind of feels
like she's running in slow motion backwards Yeah,
yeah that like crazy run. Yeah, okay And you
sprint through the building not fully in control
of her body Yeah, you sprint past like where
that smoke bomb bounced it just sort of like
left a puddle of smoke that you're just like,
whip by and leaves it in your wake. On the inside,
you, uh, I don't know, it's just normal screaming
sly stuff for the front room and then you get
to the back room and you see what you see, which
is the skimmer alive and awake. You see Moe Giddy
driving it. She has pinned Lottie up against
the wall. There's a gunk snake. Like big and
crazy and they're like, oh jeez it like for some
reason this like works to get you out of your
It's just like it just wasn't what you were expecting.
Maybe I don't think quite like a good snake in
a cockpit to wake you up. Yeah You notice that
its pelt is beautiful. You're like, oh my god
Out of curiosity, is it just the skimmer or is
the package on the skimmer? No, it's just the
skimmer. Okay. I see Lottie. I was like, Lottie,
are you okay? What the fuck's going on? I'm painting
us the wall! I mean, I see that. She's bleeding.
Get her off the gas! Okay, okay. So like I run
to the front where the driver is, yank open that
cockpit. I'm an expert around getting around
gunk snakes. I have one tattooed on my neck.
So I'm kind of great. I'm the gunk snake whisperer.
So I go in and I just like pet between its little
cute eyes and it like kind of falls off. And
I'm like, knock, knock, motherfucker. And then
just like punch Moe Giddy in the face. Okay.
I guess that's going to be another touch. Or
is that a fight? I'm going to call that a fight.
Yeah. Okay. I dropped my knives because of my
shock. Yeah. Yeah. Alright. Oh snap! Look it!
I got a five! Yes! Alright! So like the heroes
of old, you know, in the old timey movies, you
just come flying in and I think you get the gunk
snake without even really looking at it. It lunges
up to strike you and you do the cool guy thing
where you just catch it and you weren't even
looking for it and you're just like, ha! It's
so cool. You're like, okay, gunk snake's fine.
I got this, yeah. And then with your other hand,
you just like... like right into Moe Kitty and
you are gonna get her dazed. Her foot is still
on the gas, unfortunately. Okay, can I kind of
like shove her out the other side? I think this
is the end of your, well, okay, Moe is suddenly
outnumbered and she is now going to stomp the
gas. She's like, time to go, and she is going
to, like, and that is going to be grievously
injurious to Lottie if this happens. I'm gonna
resist that. Okay. Feel free to resist with prowess.
Where are you at on stress? I got four before
I hit trauma. Okay. Oh, I got a six! Oh, I got
a six! Oh my god, okay. Our resistance has been
amazing. This is crazy. This is crazy. It's because
we're at the screaming slice. This is our home
ground. Oh my god. On my house! On my turf! Yeah,
okay. Absolutely. You see the panic in Moe's
eyes and you like see what she's about to do.
How do you stop her? I literally like open the
door in one swift motion and shove her out the
other side. Okay. Cause I kinda come through
the passenger side is my thought. Yeah. So that
I'm like, get the fuck out. I always pictured
skimmers like ski dudes where there's kind of
no doors. Then if there's no door, then hell
yeah. Absolutely. I just like. Just like sweep
her off. Body slam her, just like somehow. Well,
I punched her already, so then I just take my
leg and kind of sweep her leg up over so she
falls off. Yeah, okay. All right, so Moggitty
slams outside. You are in the skimmer with the
snake, and also there's no foot on the gas. A
lot of you are not pinned anymore. What a relief.
That sucked. I still have like... the one injury
from it, right? Yes. Yeah. You still got like
mildly crushed, but you know, it is what it is.
Take the keys out the ignition. Nice. Lay up
next to me. Adrenaline starting to fade. Yeah.
Okay. Where do you want to send the action? I
have this person pinned. Yep. But they're able
to talk. They are. Yeah. That's the plan. When
you came here today, I'm sure you had no intention
of losing your life and thankfully for you I
have no intention of taking yours So why don't
you just turn around and walk away? Do you want
to roll? No, I want to have a conversation Okay
She she's face down right like you have like
knee in her back kind of thing Yeah, okay sure
like her mouth is probably exposed. Yeah, I mean
she can talk I'm just like for this scene like
the smoke bomb is still going off next to you
guys And she is still losing smoke and you can
feel your fingers are like Stinging a little
bit like the closer that they are to her And
she says like life without honors no life at
all. You fucking killed her you fucking killed
her What did you expect to happen? You intruded
on our turf. You disrespected us. You took from
us. Look, we have to take our opportunities where
we see them. You fucked up. You didn't get it.
She is going to try to throw you. So what would
you like to do? I always have a hidden knife
on me. This is going to end one way now. Yeah.
What do we call this? Because I am going to try
to kill her. I am going to try to shank her in
the throat. She's made her choice. I've made
my choice. I'd accept fight or touch, I think.
Okay. They're the same. Yeah. We're gonna call
this risky standard. Can I make an argument for
controlled? I'm on top of her. Yeah, yeah. Fair.
Yeah. What? Listen, I'm in a situation here where
I have to physically use my body in a way that
I never did. Okay, for the listeners at home,
Nihar had to roll two, take the lower. First
dice was a six. Perfect success. Second dice
was a one, baby. The second dice also taunted
us for a long time because it rolled like three
times as long as the first. The dice gods are
mocking you for sure. The two things that could
happen on this one are, she is going to hurt
you real bad, and then she's gonna run away.
So you could resist one or both, you could let
it happen. Up to you. Yeah, I think I'll resist
the damage to me. Yeah, I think she's gonna get
away. Yeah, okay. So what it looks like is, you're
mid -sentence, and when you're arguing with people,
sometimes it's just like, don't you see? Don't
you understand that like, Come on, this is the
way that it is, and you are constructing your
argument, and you're feeling the rightness, you're
feeling the threads of the universe, and then
she throws you sideways, and this wave of smoke
comes out of her body. You realize that she was
holding her breath or something, just building
it up, and this whoosh of this toxic, choking
fog. She's like, you are not breathing for a
good few seconds. It knocks you, and so when
she just... shrugs you off and sprints. And there's
so much smoke left in her wake that you don't
see which direction she goes. You're not going
to take harm or anything, but in this instance,
she is gone. It's just footsteps in the street,
you know? Do I resist with resolve? I'm trying
to tank the smoke. Well, you're not going to
take harm. Well, OK, so there were two consequences.
There was you taking harm and there was her running
away. You already resisted the harm. Do you want
to resist her running away? Well, I did resist
the harm. I didn't roll for it. Oh, you mean
for stress? Yeah, roll for it. Yeah, roll your
stress. Sorry. I misunderstood. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. Resolve. I'm gonna say resolve. Three.
I'm out. Jesus Christ. Okay. What does it look
like? How's it go? So you're gonna be knocked
here. Like, yeah, what happens? No, I think the
blast of smoke hits Connie and it's just... you
know, cannot breathe desperate coughing and hacking
until he just stops and is laying on the ground,
unconscious. Damn. Okay, and we see that it's
one of those cool camera shots where it's right
from above, like the ground is flat below us,
and we see the body of this body armored person
splayed on the ground, this pool of black blood,
and then Connie beside you, like the robes strewn
out to one side. It's very beautiful. It like
spins a little bit as it pulls out. We're like,
oh, cinematography. You're unconscious. Where
would you like to send the action? We come back
to Tenk. Tenk is distraught. He has ended up
in the place he started. And now, he thinks to
himself, well, the quick way didn't work. I'm
gonna take the long way. So he takes off in the
other direction than he did before. He makes
a right, he turns left down an alley, and then
makes another left, and bong, he hits the back
of a screaming slice. He's dead. Oh, wow, I guess
the first time I took the long way. Damn. The
tank has entered the fray. Nice, nice. So I think
you hear clanking and shouting from the back
room, and you probably wouldn't hear anything
at all from the front, but I don't know. What
do you want to do? I'm going to go investigate
the back room. Yeah. OK, I mean, you're in the
garage. You know how to get in. Yeah. Yeah. Tank.
Hey, Tank. Endless splattered with blood, just
like... Like, but greets you with a big, Hey
Tay! She's holding a gunk snake somehow. Am I
interrupting something? Not anymore. I scan the
room for visible threats. You see that Moe Giddy
was crumpled on the ground and she's going to
get up and try to sprint, sprint the fuck out.
I'm going to charge and do one of those, you
know, like when pro wrestlers, they like go to
jump on someone, but they like do it almost like
horizontally. Like a cross like that. Right to
Moe Giddy. Yes! Alright, what would you like
to roll? here. I guess, I guess that's fine.
Sure, yeah. I'm gonna call this controlled standard.
This is fine. This is fine to do. Actually, it's
risky standard. Yeah. Four. Four. Okay. So bonk,
you cross body her with incredible precision.
You missed your calling. You should have been
a pro wrestler. And you thunk on top of her.
And it was a risky standard because What happens,
happens, which is that she stabs you in the gut.
So you take a level two harm unless you're going
to resist. I'm going to resist. Okay, yeah. Promise?
Yes. That's a six. So little, little knife, like
wicked little pen knife, and you catch that glint
just at the last second and just catch her hand
like Enla catching the snake. And Moe just like
hisses and snarls at you. You got her, she's
pinned. Okay. Yeah, you got her. Sitting my butt
on her face. Okay, classic pro wrestling behavior.
Yeah, so this is the situation as it stands.
What would you like to do? Wait up. Let's not
forget I am extra stanky right now. Oh yeah,
you smell really bad. Also, which way are you
facing while sitting on her face? So like, are
you facing where like your legs are facing her
body or a way? A way. Just like beast stoop position.
Get to you, kid. Brutal. Brutal series of events.
Yeah. What are we doing here? Are there any more
threats? I think it was just her and this downstairs.
Okay, I think I got her neutralized. Yeah, you
got her. Lottie, how are you? Are you okay? She's
flailing ineffectively underneath you. Lottie
is just like kind of nursing like a really bad
bruise across her side where she got pinned.
And it's also looking for something to bandage
the wound on her arm. So she's just kind of busy
with injury. She must take some of her blood
-soaked coat and rips off a strip and wraps it
around her arm. Thank you, Anna. This hurt's
really bad. Yeah, gunk snakes are pretty brutal
unless you know how to handle them. You're just
like gesturing with the gunk snake. Lottie like
flinches every time you gesture with it. I love
this thing now, this is great. Anyway, you guys
are all happy and goofy. Connie's limp body is
just like out front, just hanging out. We should
probably go check on Connie. I think he's still
out front. Yeah, I think Lottie would probably
start making her way out front. What do you want
me to do with our prisoner? Moe Giddy, actually.
And she's under you, but she's trying to regain
some composure here. Fuck you, but fair, all
right? Let's... Call it even! You let me go,
we'll make it work, okay? Make it worth your
while. How would you do that? We're the fucking
giddy girls, we got - we got shit, what do you
want? You just - to leave us alone? Yeah, uh
-huh. There's a mutual understanding between
you that you have just so deeply disres - You
just killed, like, presumably someone she's close
to, I don't know. She doesn't know that yet.
Yeah, she doesn't know that yet. So, um, it's
not gonna be that, basically. Just leave us the
fuck alone. And, like, covered in blood, holding
a snake. Guys, I think - I think she might be
lying. I'm not lying! We pull jobs, okay? We
get money. Do you want money? Is that what you
want? You just let me walk out of here. We'll
call the whole thing sauce, okay? We can't just
let you walk out of here. What am I gonna do,
right? You took my skimmer. You took my package.
Like, you guys don't even know about the fucking
tender mercy, right? Like, they're gonna eat
you alive in there. What are you gonna do? You
gonna sell it back to them? They're gonna eat
you for breakfast. You need my help. You know,
I'm not... I just want to preface this. Not great
at business. It's not a businessman. The visor
is descending upon your head. The calculator
pops out of your chest. Sorry, continue. This
is not financial advice. But I imagine we can
work out a deal with the tender mercy that probably
cuts you out of the equation. So what you're
offering is not really of interest to us. You
don't know who you're dealing with. They're so
far above your fucking weight class. I know how
to work with them. I know the secrets of the
place. You are gonna get rocked if you even try
anything with them. Okay, what are the secrets?
As if I tell you! Let me go! This is a transaction.
You said I could give you something. I need insurance.
Okay, name your terms. Fuck. You let me go now.
Can I stand up at least? Can I sit? Usually we
keep something for insurance? Yeah. Okay. You
keep something for insurance? I don't know, not
a business guy. Someone keeps something for insurance.
She says, okay, how about one of us stays with
you, right? One of us stays with you while you
go and talk to them and whatever, because you're
clearly going to try to steal our job. Okay,
so I like that proposition. You are currently
the only person that we have. She smiles. She
thinks that means the other two got away. One
is still here. What one is what one is still
here, but not on this mortal plane I took I took
one of she's still gesturing with the gunk snake
It's been it's been a weird day Emma I just want
to let you know I'm not great with nuance. I
I Killed one I don't know if anybody can see
Moe's face right now. Because you're sitting
on it? Yeah, probably. We would be seeing a cool
actor moment if we were, but yeah. Wait, have
we been talking through his leg? Yeah. Okay.
I would say yeah, just slightly mumbled. I also
just want to point out he's wearing little Sophie
shorts. No! This keeps getting worse. And they
just have been running around. And you're supernaturally
stinky. Oh my god. This is the worst day of Moe's
life for like a couple of reasons. This is brutal.
Yeah, um, I'm still processing, but I took down
the big one. She's, she's not moving. Silence.
Moe isn't speaking. I think we're going to have
to have a conversation about how to correctly
negotiate with, with other parties. Um, I, I'm
sorry. I just, I kind of just went avid and When
I came to she was gone Lottie, how are you doing?
So Lottie would have walked out front to check
on her situation. She sees one body and her friend
unconscious She freaks out a little bit thinking
the worst and runs up to Connie and sees that
he's breathing But just out of it and it's trying
to rouse him a little bit. Okay You remember
there's some big, wet seaweed in the kitchen
that you've always found very refreshing. Maybe
that'll help. I don't know. Sure. Um, after a
little bit of like trying to shake Connie out
of it and not working, she resolves to go find
like, you know, like a bucket of water or something
like that, goes into the kitchen and the wettest
thing she can find is those. So she goes back
out front and with those and kind of just like
tosses the wet slimy thing like over his eye
and sees if he reacts. Connie, do you want to
wake up soon or do you want to be out for a while?
I think it's more interesting if I'm out until
we resume downtime. Okay, so interesting. Y 'all
are gonna have to resolve this with Mo without
Connie's help. Without the negotiator. Real cool,
real normal, real good. Yeah, you've got the
psychopathic killer, the not -so -great businessman.
The really good businessman. The recently besnaked
Lottie. It's like besnaked and quiet grandma.
Okay, so Mo speaks up from her position, which
sucks, and she says, all right, let's get real.
There's a way in. There's someone you can talk
to who isn't gonna fuck you the way that the
main management would. You have to take my word
for it and you know I'm good for it because I've
worked for the Tender Mercy for years. So you're
really just gonna have to believe me that I know
what I'm saying when I say they'll kill you and
you need my help right now. It's just one of
you. It's just us. It looked at me just like,
oh boy. Yeah, what do you guys do? So I'm gonna
be totally honest with you right now. You're
making a really good case for us to just hold
you hostage. Fine. Okay. It occurs to you how
fucking difficult it's gonna be to have a live
hostage in your restaurant that hates you, that
you have murdered someone close to her, that
like, this is gonna be tough. I don't know, it's,
yeah, I don't know. It is what it is. I wasn't
thinking of keeping her at the restaurant. Well,
we could cask of a Montiago her into the tunnel.
That seems like a lot of effort to just kill
her. We smash cut into whatever goofy thing Tank
was thinking about. Where are we putting Mo 'Gitty?
What's the deal? Sorry, my dark ass spoken brain.
No, I love it, yeah. Yeah, what do we do? One
of the features of Tank's room is a full -on
stripper pole floor to ceiling that he thinks
just handcuff her to the stripper pole. Okay!
okay um how much is within reach or is it totally
center like a center of the room there's nothing
within reach i am gonna raise an important note
handcuffs i don't think yeah we don't have handcuffs
yeah or tie her but using whatever you can whatever
we can this is just what's going on in tank's
brain goofy I'm gonna say I'm not gonna let you
do downtime until you resolve what happens to
Moe. So you do need to... All right. I'm just
saying, ask of Montiago her into the tunnel,
but leave like a space open so she can't get
out, we can talk to her. We're gonna bury her
alive, except for her face? Basically. I feel
like it would be such a beautiful representation
of how Weir's completely suffocated by society
and its rules. And like you're remembering paintings
of like Ophelia. You're remembering paintings
of like... truth coming out of her well, you
know, like you're like, visually strong. Yeah.
Are you okay? Like in the head? I think so. Blood,
blood everywhere, snake still in hand. What's
your vibe on the snake? Are you enjoying your
snake experience? Yeah, me and gunk snakes, we're
kindred spirits. Nice, yeah. I want to keep him
as a pet. Oh my god! This podcast has been zero
days since pet equity. If there's one thing I've
learned from D &D, you do not throw an animal
at your party unless you want them to take it
as a pet. Yeah, incredible. I mean, of course
I want a pet gunk snake. Lani will avoid my part
of the roof forever. How about this? You said
you could help us. Yeah. Give us what we need
to know. And then what? You shoot me in the head?
No, you need to give me some insurance that you're
going to let me go. Oh, man. That's the part
where we give you something. How would we do
that? How about this? You let me sit up. That
would be great. You let me go to the door. Hold
a knife on me or whatever. I get a knife on you.
I don't know. You got me hostage. That was a
terrible idea. Famously no one survives a knife
fight. Everyone gets stabbed in a knife fight.
Listen, why should I help you then? Just kill
me now. Either kill me or trust me. You need
to trust me. Yeah, but you haven't explained
how you're gonna help us. Yes, I have. I know
someone at the Tender Mercy, and I know what
they're like, and I know how to talk to them,
okay? Just tell us who it is! There's also no
way to guarantee that what Mo tells us is actually
the truth. And if we get there and it's wrong,
we're fucked. Yeah. Connie's spinning and is
not great. Yeah. At least I dragged you inside
by now, probably. I hope so. I mean, I don't
think you'd bring me to the place with the anime.
No, I just mean, like, in the rest of it. Like,
you're safe. Indoor. You're safe. Lottie has
you, like, inside on the floor, spread eagle.
She's, like, lit a candle for some reason. We're
just like, hmm. I don't know. Maybe that'll help.
Yeah. OK. Don't know I don't know how this plays
out because she wouldn't want to give it like
she needs some insurance like yeah Like you need
to let me go you need to let me I will I will
tell you I will tell you Tank I'm gonna go check
on Lottie and Connie first. I'm not good at this
apparently And I think we might mean You're just
gonna leave me alone Well, I would hope the only
rule is don't let her go Okay, you got this tank.
I believe in you She believes in you, Tank. Shut
up, Mal. Scorn. Just visceral scorn. The way
she said that makes me think that this is not
a good idea. And yet it happens anyway. Lottie!
Connie! Enla, you see the scene of unconscious
Connie. You see Lottie kelp. Seaweed, not kelp.
Seaweed. So Connie's OK? He's probably not gonna
wake up for a while, but he seems all right.
Fuck, okay. We kind of need him. We're doing
some interrogation in the back, and it's not
going great. I think we need to get back there
soon. Do you want to help? Yeah, let's go. It's
probably gonna be... It's just Tank, so, yeah.
We gotta move. So in that moment while Endless
Gone, Moe says to you, you're on the tickball
team, right? Yeah. Yeah, so you know Ludenza,
right? Oh, yeah, I do. Yeah, you like that guy?
Cool guy? Yeah, I mean, he did throw me into
a tick tree, but it was pretty sweet. Yeah. Do
you want to know where he gets his juice? This
is a big deal. All the players on the team have
their custom juice blend. It's a closely guarded
secret. This is unheard of. Yeah, so I don't
know. Oh my gosh. I do want to know that. Cool.
Wouldn't it be nice if I was alive and I could
tell you that after this all works out? That
would be nice. Yeah. Okay, so it's you and me,
right? Is that what insurance is? Maybe. Okay.
I solemnly swear that I will make sure you're
alive through this ordeal. Okay. As long as you
provide me with the juice recipe. and location
or or just the location whatever it was the location
of the juice or it's the guy who gets him his
juice okay okay okay provided that you provide
me with that information all right deal shake
on it uh i mean i'm not we're not really in a
position to shake but like like verbal agreement
that's that's legally binding yeah for sure The
way you said the way you said that did not do
not tank no, I never lie You're not doing me
any favors. I will null and void this Tank, what
are you knowing and voiding? What's going on?
I Think we figured out the whole insurance thing
tank insurance. Yeah, this is the This is the
bitch that crushed me. Karate just like rolling
in his grave faster than anyone's ever rolled.
So you're sitting on the lap of the woman that
crushed me. Doing what? Guaranteeing her safety
in exchange for information that will help us
and me also. What's that information, ma 'am?
He wants to know about the juice that Ludanza
uses on the tickball team. This is of interest
to you, actually, Lottie, because, I don't know,
you're involved in drug world. Yeah, Lottie,
this is the guy. This is the guy we've been looking
for, your main competitor. You know him? We flash
back to, this is like, you know how rich people
don't talk about who their plastic surgeon is?
There is that economy around the high level tickball
players. So you have always been aware that there
are like high level dealers who have very exclusive
clientele. You have never come anywhere close
to that world. Like I think you're very small
time in the grand scheme of things. but you're
like, oh, okay, you know? So yeah, exciting.
So like, is this guy like the reason I can never
get any sales with the tick ball players or anything
like that? You're trying to sell the tick ball
players? Yeah, good luck. You guys don't know
shit, all right? You need somebody to help you
out here. All right, so now I stand up and now
I'm your hostage or whatever, but I'm going to
stay alive and I'm going to stay safe, okay?
As long as you're useful. All right. And as long
as you don't piss me off. The gunk snake. Being
gunky. You're really going with Gunky? It's a
temporary name. You have no imagination. That's
what's so depressing about all of you is that
you just don't have any fucking panache, all
right? What are you even called as a group? Your
name is Getty and you get things for people.
Yeah. It's a brand. You ever heard of marketing?
Enla is getting heated. Enla, one of nature's
artists, encountering one of nature's marketers.
And saying that she doesn't have creativity is
infuriating. I think that... Enla's fuming. What
is the last thing we see as this moment is ending?
We're gonna tie up her hands. Okay, using what?
Rope that we have in the back room for tying
up meats and stuff. Like Butcher's Twine? Yeah.
Oh, actually, I think it's an old phone cord.
Oh, something I got lost in. It's like one of
those curly phone cords. Yes! Yay, okay. Tangle
that shit up. And then what do you do with her?
Do we have the skinny lockers? Oh no. Oh no!
I mean, sure, you can generate a skinny locker
in the Screamer's Lace, yeah. We just shove her
in the skinny locker and lock it? Okay, okay,
and then the cl - No, this is not final sale.
None of you guys - I want input. No, I like the
idea of - It's dumb enough that it feels right,
you know? Cause Albert doesn't know this is here.
Yeah, oh my god! Yeah, all this happened at like
4am. Yeah, I think the camera pulls out on like
Halbert waking up for the morning and then Petra
coming to do the morning, you know, baking kind
of stuff and then like a lot of yelling and a
lot of what happened and a lot of oh my god a
body and like just the confusion and like this
day just keeps fucking going. Like what a day.
There's just always more day. And there's more
day tomorrow because we are back down to downtime.
