- 2:08a tube? Do you know what experience he's
- 2:10going through right now? AM.
- 2:12I in. A tube.
- 2:15I did a water slide once. I mean, I kind of had the
- 2:18changeover from having an actual head to ATV head.
- 2:23I don't know if that's. I don't think it's quite the
- 2:26same thing, yeah. Jeb, we're upstairs.
- 2:31Footsteps. Footsteps.
- 2:32Footsteps. Whoa, you guys, I don't know
- 2:38what the hell just happened, but you will not believe this.
- 2:41I woke up in a tube Jeb towel. Sorry.
- 2:46Listen. He throws a bar towel at you and
- 2:48he hits you in the face. Wipe it down.
- 2:55Whoo. Listen, I I will say one thing.
- 2:57Waking up on that tube, weird as hell from a mental standpoint,
- 3:01but honestly, I think I was probably the most comfortable
- 3:05I've ever been. Listen, I'm going to be honest.
- 3:07Last thing I remember, I was down at a bar of some sort, and
- 3:13I do remember they had super whiskey, which ain't something I
- 3:17had never had before. And by golly, it really knocks
- 3:21you on your ass. I thought that was just
- 3:24moonshine super whiskey were. They lying on me.
- 3:27That's what you had you you downed like a lot of that.
- 3:34And then you left. And then you left for candy.
- 3:37Yeah, and. Was there?
- 3:40History. Oh my God, I almost forgot about
- 3:43the whole Halloween thing. A whole release.
- 3:45Yeah. And Jeb, we saved your life.
- 3:47There was a whole thing, yeah. It felt like we it felt like we
- 3:50went really far to do it, you know, really far.
- 3:52Like, all the way down to San Diego.
- 3:54Well, I don't know about. That I I felt like I contributed
- 3:56quite a bit during that. You know I had the whole I I, I
- 3:59I did kill Vandell with a with a you know my hands.
- 4:02No, no. Jeff, after that you were in a
- 4:03tube you you were there, but you weren't there.
- 4:07I'm not following. I was there, but I wasn't there.
- 4:11That make that all made no sense.
- 4:13You know, in spirit. And in a tube.
- 4:16Yes, that. You're telling me that I was in?
- 4:19OK, hold on. What day is it?
- 4:20November the 5th. Has it been Thanksgiving yet?
- 4:23No. No.
- 4:25OK, I love Turkey. Sloan gives you a look.
- 4:31Hey, it's different. You love Turkey, too.
- 4:33Don't even lie to me. Yeah, all right.
- 4:40I know. Well, all right.
- 4:42Thank you Bebe for that, Ivy. By the way, I'm having a much
- 4:45better clearness to my head. However, I think I need to
- 4:49separate it real quick. Pink.
- 4:51Can I get a shot at tequila real quick?
- 4:53Sure. So I'm just wondering why you
- 4:55guys brought me along on a mission.
- 4:56If I was just in a tube, you know, you could have.
- 4:59Easily saved you. You were being sold to someone
- 5:02the. Mission was us, you know,
- 5:04collecting your body back. With you in it.
- 5:08Yep. Wait a minute.
- 5:10Y'all did a rescue mission for Mike.
- 5:13Yes. Yeah, it could be a little more
- 5:15grateful. No, thank you.
- 5:18I'm. I'm with our words, you know.
- 5:22You know, this reminds me that I've been working on Song for
- 5:25y'all. Moleskin Cowboy well.
- 5:29That one's some of the words. Actually, no, that that one I'm
- 5:32still working on. I I'm trying to get past the
- 5:34the, the, the bridge. I can't really nail that one
- 5:37down. But but I did.
- 5:39I did write this little dicky for you, my friends.
- 5:45They're the greatest friends. They're my bestest friends and I
- 5:57go with missions, bam. And then it kind of goes into a
- 6:00more kind of Getty like a little cool drum beat Here I'm thinking
- 6:04if. I.
- 6:07Haven't performed this live. There's gonna be a big off the
- 6:10side, right? And then and then it kind of
- 6:11really gets into it there and it goes like my friends.
- 6:16They're the greatest friend. Anyway, King brings you a drink.
- 6:21That's nice, Jeff. Oh, thank you anyway, I'm I I
- 6:25guess it's not quite doing you. I can see potential though.
- 6:29We all stare blankly as Yep, yes, we.
- 6:34Do baby. Well, yeah, I mean, we said.
- 6:40I mean, the mission was pretty cool, if I could say so myself,
- 6:44but. Yeah, I was thinking.
- 6:48I mean, if you like Jeb and you're like, wait, the last
- 6:51thing I remember was like Halloween.
- 6:52I expect that's the kind of thing you'd have to like, look
- 6:54up, check out the YouTube channel, that kind of thing.
- 6:57Oh yeah. I mean, we are pretty famous.
- 7:02You're famous. That's why you were stolen, Jeb.
- 7:04True. It was like.
- 7:06You. Know what that means, everyone?
- 7:08That I need a new identity. Great idea.
- 7:12We need to start doing the buddy system.
- 7:16And those girls in the. Way they have to go with someone
- 7:19now. Sloan, you're my buddy rat.
- 7:25But that didn't sound very convincing.
- 7:29That's because Sloan and I are already buddies.
- 7:30Sloan I give them a treat. Hey, buddies.
- 7:37For life, bro. Yeah.
- 7:39She's a good bird, I will tell you that.
- 7:42She's good. Oh, I got a message from that
- 7:45pie Right guy? Yeah.
- 7:48He says the boat's almost ready. Oh, good.
- 7:50That's good to know because Ping, I got a question or two
- 7:53for you. Now that I'm on like an even
- 7:55keel with like, the alcohol from last night leaving my body and
- 8:00being replenished and the alcohol I now have in my body
- 8:03now, I'm like equalized at the moment.
- 8:07I know that we're going out in the middle of nowhere, but like
- 8:11he missed that. Is there any way we could like
- 8:14get some like Scout information? Like are there any like can we
- 8:20get like Guard deployments if they're out there, maybe some
- 8:24schematics, a floor plan? Schematics of the ocean Well,
- 8:29there's something out there in the ocean we're going to get.
- 8:33What did Mr. Kerrigan say? It was something.
- 8:36If any of us remembered. You are pretty hungover.
- 8:39I got it written down somewhere. Something about an oil rig,
- 8:42Yeah. Do we remember what the name of
- 8:44the oil rig is? Is that something we can like
- 8:45research online? I've got the coordinates in it.
- 8:47That's good. Yeah, we got those.
- 8:49We got the coordinates. Ping, I know you're a really
- 8:51great fixer. You're one of the top fixers
- 8:53that they have here in Knight City.
- 8:55Is there any way you can get us some information on this?
- 8:58Domino. Yes.
- 9:00Oh, you look really hungover. Why is jet wet?
- 9:05Actually, I feel great. And I'm wet because I was saved
- 9:10and not like I was baptized or nothing.
- 9:12It was. I came out of two Awesome.
- 9:14I'm glad that you're OK. Do you mean to yourself, reborn?
- 9:18Hey Dom. Oh, sorry.
- 9:20Do you mind if I call you Dom? I have.
- 9:23No. Cool.
- 9:24I like Dom. You know?
- 9:25It's kind of it's kind of punchy.
- 9:27Boom. Dom.
- 9:28Anyway, dumb. You ever heard about this oil
- 9:31rig? It is one of many oil rigs that
- 9:33have been run and controlled by several companies in Knight
- 9:38City. However, I believe you are all
- 9:40trying to find the facility underneath since it has been
- 9:44decommissioned. Underneath an oil rig?
- 9:47Is it one of them oil rigs that are out, like in the middle of
- 9:50the desert? Or where's this oil rig?
- 9:52It's the Ocean Jerk. In water.
- 9:55That's why we're going to see Pie Rat you.
- 9:57Got a boat? Oh my God, the boat.
- 10:00I almost forgot about the boat. Well, if you need plans for
- 10:04something involving the Syndicate, we would either have
- 10:07to find their main base or hack that data out of an AI core.
- 10:12Do you know of any of the agents of the Syndicate who have tried
- 10:19to engage with you? Yes, we did blow one of them up
- 10:23a couple days ago. Yeah, on Halloween there is
- 10:27another one. There is the second Claire Ohh.
- 10:30The second Claire was what happened?
- 10:32What about the other one that was that Claire's?
- 10:37Apartment. Ohh one liner.
- 10:39I know how to get ahold of that that hack.
- 10:42Because you took down the satellite, if there is an AI
- 10:45nearby, there is an AI core. Obviously they will fight for
- 10:50tooth and nail to stop you from accessing it.
- 10:53You will have to find a way to gain access to the core for a
- 10:57brief period of time. How do you access the core it?
- 11:00Will be nearby, I believe. If I were to do it myself, I
- 11:04would put it in a vehicle like a bear.
- 11:07May not say you relax volumes. You could see.
- 11:10The one that showed up now. Side of the bar a few weeks ago.
- 11:15On the side there was a wizard riding a wolf howling at the
- 11:19moon and. That they were they.
- 11:22There was a wizard rabbing a wolf, and they were all painted
- 11:26driving. The van Yes, it was cool off.
- 11:30Oh, I I saw it. You saw it.
- 11:33I did, yes. It was a girls night thing.
- 11:38You wouldn't understand. Sloane, you yarn on these girls
- 11:40nights. Oh, I'm sorry about that girl.
- 11:45I'll invite you to the next one, Sloan.
- 11:48No, no, no. We talked about this.
- 11:53No. Woo, woo.
- 11:54Good. God, I'm I'm giving Sloan
- 11:59another treat. You're getting so good at
- 12:01learning how to speak. OK, so the plan is we need to
- 12:08find an AI and Jack their core. We're going to do what to their
- 12:13core jacket? Jacket.
- 12:16Jack the core, you know. Right, right.
- 12:18Right. So we know where one is with Mr.
- 12:23Kerrigan. And then did we leave another
- 12:26one at Claire's apartment? What did happen to that one
- 12:29liner? Oh, they escaped out the
- 12:31bathroom. I remember that.
- 12:32Jumped out the window on a hellcat.
- 12:36Yeah, wow, that sounds badass as hell.
- 12:38Is this one liner easily distracted?
- 12:41Yes, I feel like they could be. If you talk shit.
- 12:45Yes, they get hit. Oh, a rhyme.
- 12:49Excellent. I can't rhyme with excellent.
- 12:51I I can't do it. So that's OK, Jeff.
- 12:56I was trying to continue the the rhyming.
- 12:58So that's the thing I couldn't get in my in my songs I can't
- 13:01get. I'm not good at rhyming.
- 13:03Though I'm I'm I feel like I'm really getting down a a basic
- 13:08song structure. That one I got down and mail it.
- 13:13You know, it's got to have a snapping tool.
- 13:17Anyway, to the task at hand, Jeff, right?
- 13:20Potentially all of the human race are in danger.
- 13:25Uh huh. So how do we get a hold of 1
- 13:27liner then? That's the that's the question.
- 13:31If he's out on the streets, it will not be difficult to detect
- 13:35him since you have already met him a few times, what do you
- 13:39know about him? Well, he's jank as fuck.
- 13:42I know that, right? Nobody's choom, not quick on the
- 13:49whip drives that busted ass van. What kind of van was it?
- 13:54How do we can we find out that maybe we can find out where the
- 13:57van is and then he'll be nearby? Sounds good to me.
- 14:01Yeah, does anybody remember? Let me think.
- 14:04I'm only think if I can remember I'm going to go into my mind
- 14:08Rolodex. Roll Local Expert My Home 17 Yes
- 14:15Yeah, I was a white fan with LW Dash RDR 2.
- 14:25OK, there's a. You just plug it in somewhere.
- 14:29Someone got access to the DMV? Nowadays.
- 14:34I don't. I don't have access to that
- 14:36because I'm going to got a tile. Oh, here, you can borrow mine.
- 14:39Now this is a tile as well. I have an agent.
- 14:42You posh git. I thought it was normal for
- 14:46people at Night City to have agents.
- 14:48I I still haven't. Under I I don't.
- 14:53I don't get why you all have tiles.
- 14:55They're burners, look. And that just snaps their tile
- 14:58in half. Oh.
- 15:00Is that do you all like, go through tiles?
- 15:03Pretty, Pretty. Rapidly actually like this snap.
- 15:09And then they'll buys two more from a vending machine and
- 15:11passes one director. It's actually really easy.
- 15:13But you don't have like something that like, I mean like
- 15:16when you got to go on the garden, you got to check like
- 15:19your messages with your friends like you don't.
- 15:21Save all your better data through like a biometric
- 15:23BitLocker with like how much encryption is it even?
- 15:26I have difficulty. Interesting.
- 15:33When you see it in half it deletes everything and it also
- 15:36has a universal charger. Not like with the agents where
- 15:39they only have a certain one that you constantly have to keep
- 15:41buying because they burn out and they have like designed it that
- 15:44way specifically. Well, you all are selling me on
- 15:47this. But it doesn't have speech.
- 15:50Yeah, yeah. They're only third party apps,
- 15:52so you never really know what you're getting.
- 15:55I I do really like my agent, but.
- 15:58I mean, you should keep it. Just means that you're green
- 16:00text. Great.
- 16:05Well anyway, unlike all of you, I could look up this number.
- 16:10Oh no. I think I also have an agent.
- 16:11They've been making fun of my green bubbles for a while now.
- 16:15No, Jeff, you just haven't signed into that.
- 16:16Never mind, I'll. Fix it nicely.
- 16:19So, so we're looking up this license plate, Is that what
- 16:21we're doing right? Yeah.
- 16:23OK. I'll, I'll, I'll take a look.
- 16:27So you go on to the garden on your agent and there are a few
- 16:29things you can download. There are a few apps and one of
- 16:32them is the NCPD public database.
- 16:35It's just available. Hey man, that's public
- 16:37information. Wow.
- 16:39That's fucking great, crit. Well done, that's.
- 16:42That's that's a Max crit. That's plus ten.
- 16:45Yes, you scan through the the public information in the app
- 16:50and it glitches out and lets you into the security level chest
- 16:53below it. So instead of just finding out
- 16:56what kind of area it is it's in, you get a copy on screen of the
- 17:03last speeding ticket it got. Oh.
- 17:07It was 45 minutes ago. 45 minutes ago, Does it say where
- 17:13it was located? Somewhere near the bubble.
- 17:18Cafe. I know this location, or at
- 17:22least I know this area. They got a speeding ticket near
- 17:24my favorite bubble cafe. Oh shit.
- 17:28Have I taken you guys there yet? I think I did.
- 17:30We did. We did.
- 17:31Didn't we go there? We got takeout.
- 17:33Yeah. I love bubble tea.
- 17:35Yeah, I remember you gave me the one that had the nicotine in it.
- 17:37Yes, I did do that. Well, let's go again.
- 17:41Yes, maybe we'd take a little trip to get some tea.
- 17:46Some bubble tea. Yeah, Have you got to drive?
- 17:49Oh yeah, I've never felt better in my life.
- 17:51The tube is really sobering, but you did have that drink earlier.
- 17:55Did I have a drink since I woke up?
- 17:57Yes. Oh, Ping handed you one while
- 17:59you were talking. You went listening.
- 18:01Oh, that's right. No, no, it was.
- 18:02I was singing. Yeah, I remember.
- 18:08Maybe before we head out, I take a quick check up on Claire.
- 18:14You head downstairs. Claire's hooked up to a computer
- 18:18which Retro managed to connect to a backup battery so you could
- 18:21transfer her here. She's lying on a way more
- 18:24uncomfortable metal cot, but you have her secure in the basement.
- 18:28When you look at the computer, it's got to 9 hours and 12
- 18:31minutes and just stopped. She should have woken up now,
- 18:35looks like. A.
- 18:36Dumb. All right, pull.
- 18:39Around She's still currently actively in the brain dance,
- 18:42from what it looks like. From what I'm seeing, she's not
- 18:45OK. Yeah, and it stopped at 9 hours.
- 18:48OK, something might have happened here.
- 18:53Hey, Remy, can you come take a look at this?
- 18:59You're more tech savvy than I am.
- 19:01Yeah, yeah, sure. Hold.
- 19:05On come on down. It looks like something might
- 19:10have, like, glitched in the brain dance.
- 19:12It's been stuck on this like 9 hour mark.
- 19:15She should have kept going in this.
- 19:18Should I like should we just try to, like, disconnect it?
- 19:21There could be some cerebral damage.
- 19:23Do you want to see me? Yeah.
- 19:26You know what? Yes.
- 19:27First things first. Let me check her vitals and make
- 19:31sure everything's all good. And then we'll figure out what
- 19:33to do. I thought I'd come down too.
- 19:35Yes, thank you. Let me let me check.
- 19:39I will just do a quick scan. Pull out your Med scan.
- 19:41Now you do a little scan. Medical Tech 13.
- 19:44Oh, no, this doesn't. This doesn't look good.
- 19:49Oh, gosh. We need to OK emergency.
- 19:53Everybody, please report downstairs.

- 20:14Bowler and Hicks have been transported into the science
- 20:17fiction world of Scum and Villainy.
- 20:20Follow our heroes as they try to break out of prison.
- 20:23This is clearly a cell. I've seen a cell before.
- 20:25In any universe, this is a cell fly through asteroid belts,
- 20:31break into high security government buildings.
- 20:33Hey, give me a mark. There.
- 20:35Excuse me, I'm from the library police and punch fascists.
- 20:40That's always very cool. Catch up on season one of System
- 20:43Switch now or jump in for your first time when Season 2
- 20:46premieres on November 16th. Wherever you get your podcasts,
- 20:51the multiverse is a strange place.
- 21:02What's happening? Claire has been stuck in this
- 21:06brain dance and and is in a coma.
- 21:09What? How did that happen?
- 21:11What? What do you mean?
- 21:12Something I've I I feel bad. I wish I've been checking more
- 21:16regularly. Something happened.
- 21:18It's been days. First of all, she needs to.
- 21:23She needs food. I'm going to try to like
- 21:25administer some like liquid IV vitamins into her.
- 21:32Yeah, I would do that. Via IV and at least get her some
- 21:38nutrients and then we have to figure out how to get her out of
- 21:41this. So I set up a little IV bag and
- 21:44put some good nutrients in it. All the good stuff and.
- 21:49Put it in her arm and administer that.
- 21:52Oh, it's blue. That's cool.
- 21:53Yeah, I actually have different colors, but.
- 21:56Oh, nice. OK, so now that she's at least
- 22:00it seems a little more stable, do we want to maybe think about
- 22:05going into the brain dance and seeing if we can pull her out
- 22:09that way? Is it something that we got to
- 22:11go in and, you know, take care of it if you will?
- 22:14I will say that I am. I'm kind of burnt out on brain
- 22:19dances at the moment. Me too.
- 22:22I don't want to go back in. I am worried that if it's
- 22:26something with the brain dance that and she's stuck and might
- 22:29get us also stuck, unsure. That's a good point, yeah.
- 22:34Should we call fresh B? Let me see if I can get it to
- 22:38work. See if I can just I'm just going
- 22:41to go ahead and jiggle the the cable.
- 22:44Have you tried to turn it off and back on again?
- 22:47You jiggle the cable and it detaches and she's still in a
- 22:54coma. The computer is no longer needed
- 22:56for this. The BD is running on her own BD
- 23:00hardware internally well. Fuck, I mean, I can, I can try
- 23:08to take a peek inside that cyber Ware.
- 23:11Let's see what I can see in the cyber Ware. 26 the BD has.
- 23:16Bled into her memory centres. Oh my God.
- 23:20And she's replaying her whole life.
- 23:23Holy shit, how did this happen? Is that BD place just like?
- 23:28Cursed. I don't think the person who put
- 23:31us in the BD is actually Emma. I'm going to put that out.
- 23:34There. So that means that Claire's BD
- 23:36is also not on the up and up. Yeah.
- 23:42The thing I don't fully understand though is that.
- 23:45Thing the replicant, right? It had us all there.
- 23:50We were asleep and vulnerable and it didn't take us.
- 23:55Maybe it didn't need to. Well, it wanted us to stay in
- 24:01the the BD. In fact when Vivi and I opened
- 24:06the door, they seemed surprised that we were we were out early
- 24:13also. Does anyone else?
- 24:15Remember, there's something in my brain that I'm just when I
- 24:19gave them that logic puzzle, but I brought up the point that they
- 24:23share information with each other.
- 24:26Like all connected, I'm not following.
- 24:29I'm also not following. Pseudo hive mind with
- 24:35individuality. So what one knows, the others
- 24:39know. Some of what they know their
- 24:41data transfer speed is awful since they run that data on
- 24:46Knight Cities basic gong network.
- 24:49I am connected to the satellite, as you know, gives me almost
- 24:53unlimited bandwidth here. You seem to have thwarted their
- 24:57plans to get stronger. Giving us an opportunity to take
- 25:01that down. Well, that's good at least.
- 25:03It's funny, they could get a satellite up sooner if it
- 25:06weren't for all the bureaucracy. Ha, ha, ha.
- 25:11Ha, you're funny, Tom. Now I didn't get it.
- 25:15Thank you, Iota. That's OK, Jeff.
- 25:17Some jokes aren't for everyone. Can you do one for me though?
- 25:22Because I kind of feel left out. How many rocks does it take to
- 25:26screw in a light bulb? I don't know how many.
- 25:30No, they're all too stoned. I I get that one because because
- 25:40they're stones. Because they're rocks and
- 25:41they're stones. But, but, but people who are too
- 25:44stoned also can't put in a light bulb.
- 25:48Am I right? You you explained it very well.
- 25:53Yes, thanks for explaining the joke.
- 25:55Yeah, well, I just had to make sure that I got it.
- 26:00Give Jeb, Pat. OK, OK, so we need to figure
- 26:07this out. Well, I think there's really
- 26:12only one person we can call for this.
- 26:15Oh no. Who?
- 26:18Who? Who?
- 26:22Like sweaty. I I was going to say sawtooth
- 26:27Oh. Saturn.
- 26:30Wait, how oh. You were going to say sorties?
- 26:33Oh, I thought you were going to ask the the Clone Guy Clone guy?
- 26:37What's his name? The Father.
- 26:40Oh, Steve. He was a clone, Steve.
- 26:42Oh. There's one other person we
- 26:45could ask Father Steve. I don't want to talk to Father
- 26:49Steve. Father's How could Father Steve
- 26:53help? Oh, he's a cloning expert.
- 26:56I mean. Oh, but sorties worked with him,
- 26:58so we don't have to. Exactly.
- 27:01Oh, thank God, I hate that guy. OK.
- 27:07You tried to bring back a character for season one.
- 27:09Get fucked. Hello.
- 27:14Hi Sawtooth here. How's everyone doing?
- 27:16Someone's in a coma. Oh no.
- 27:18Is it Jeb? No.
- 27:21Oh, good. Not this time.
- 27:22Excellent. You got him out of that tube.
- 27:25Yes, good. No, we we have.
- 27:28Nice. I believe an innocent person in
- 27:30a coma. Oh no, that's the worst person
- 27:33to be in a coma. Yeah, honestly, I don't know him
- 27:35that well, so I'm just going to shine on the side that they are
- 27:38an innocent person and we could probably use your help very
- 27:41much. OK, Bebe, what's the prognosis?
- 27:45Well, she she's pretty deep in the coma, she Bebe saying.
- 27:52Kind of a. A little nervously, she's been
- 27:56stuck for three days. She was malnourished and
- 28:00malnutrition, but she's good on that now.
- 28:03Oh, good. Excellent.
- 28:04But now she's in a brain dance coma.
- 28:07Oh, you're meant to consult your position if that happens for
- 28:11more than four hours. What about 3 days?
- 28:14That's a bad one, right? Well, I tell you what.
- 28:19I will. I'll finish what I'm doing right
- 28:22here. I'll finish my beverage and I'll
- 28:24come right over. I'm.
- 28:26Getting some bubble tea. It's pretty great.
- 28:29Oh, are you at the bubble tea place?
- 28:32Oh, the Bubble Cafe. Yes, I am.
- 28:35I love it here. I like the I like the caffeine
- 28:38one. Because they really put it in
- 28:39there. I'm glad I could recommend it to
- 28:42you, Sawtooth. It is, it is great.
- 28:44Thank you for the recommendation.
- 28:46Also the staff here are great and you know they they seem to
- 28:49really know what they're doing. Independent businesses should be
- 28:52supported. Yes, yes, I was surprised.
- 28:55They're not all driven out by all the mega corporations in
- 28:58their city. Oh shit.
- 29:04Oh shit. There's there are I'm just I'm
- 29:09I'm getting under a table. Just give me a second man.
- 29:12This is good. The the place is being attacked,
- 29:16you don't stay the. Bubble Cafe.
- 29:18There's a guy here. He just turned up in a white
- 29:21van. He looked really pissed.
- 29:23Oh, oh, OK We need to get to the Bubble Cafe.
- 29:26We also need to help Claire. Claire, this is this is one of
- 29:30those times where you have two decisions in front of you and
- 29:33you know when you play like those like.
- 29:35Those brain dance games that are like, you get like the two
- 29:39options and you have to choose one of them and and it's like
- 29:42usually it's one, there's no good option to choose.
- 29:47Yes, the trolley problem, I will say.
- 29:50If she's already deep in a coma, I guess.
- 29:53She'll be fine. I guess you're right and I am
- 29:56giving her food and and nutrients.
- 29:59Oh shit. I would appreciate.
- 30:01Since if you do remember, I don't really like fighting.
- 30:04If you could just ha ha. Come, please.
- 30:08I know you called me for me to say to you it would be great if
- 30:11you could come. We'll save you first, OK?
- 30:13All right. Let's do that.
- 30:14Let's go save Sawtooth. Everybody, all.
- 30:16Right, let's We're on our way. Satooth 01 More thing if you
- 30:20wouldn't mind Sawtooth. What's that?
- 30:22Can you order me a bubble tea with synth coke, please?
- 30:24Thank you. The.
- 30:25The. Nuts and Coke.
- 30:29As your position, I'm not going to get synth coke.
- 30:31Also, as a person who's being shot at, I'm going to say that
- 30:34maybe service is suspended temporarily.
- 30:40Yeah, yeah. Probably.
- 30:43Let's let's go. Please, Let's go.
- 30:45I'm going to have a look at what's oh, no, no, he they are
- 30:47shooting. There are a few guys here.
- 30:50One of them's really big, OK? Just try to hold off and don't
- 30:55let any of the workers get shot or the place get destroyed,
- 30:59please. We'll be there soon.
- 31:00And make sure to fake laugh at every one of their jokes.
- 31:03It'll probably save you in the end and and remember any of the
- 31:06good jokes because I'd love to hear them and maybe get them
- 31:09explained to me if I don't get them.
- 31:11OK. Well, I'll try and process all
- 31:12of that wallet. Sore tooth.
- 31:15If they destroy the Bubble Cafe, I will destroy everybody.
- 31:19My feel and error will begin. Feisty VV.

- 31:28businesses. Yes, it's a it's a good thing in

- 33:27door elevator. And if you want to grab your old
- 33:30shotgun, but Phoebe has taken yours.
