- 0:15You know, as long as we got three of them up somewhere,
- 0:17we're good. Here's the thing.
- 0:18We're going to be doing triangulation.
- 0:19I can never remember where things are.
- 0:21Oh, clandestine. OK, Jeb has occasionally used a
- 0:25big word like that. They are smarter than we fear.
- 0:29I asked for door. Retro SO.
- 0:31Finding them is going to be harder than you think.
- 0:33So is now a good time to? I think it is.
- 0:37More specifically on Domino. Any like major red flags so far?
- 0:42Let's go gamble and have fun. Combat Zone Sharks cards.
- 0:45All right, let's go gambling. We haven't been there in a
- 0:47while. Everybody outlet's go huh?
- 0:49Oh, this is. Going to be a good.
- 0:50One things are professional. I don't know are you?
- 0:52Are you all? Right, slot machines.
- 0:53Slot machines. Not Peter.
- 0:56Oh, OK. Retro, of course, has a little
- 1:10joint while he's waiting for everybody else, I would like
- 1:16another card, please the. The dealer's hand lingers near
- 1:20your cards on the table, and they turn their hand over and
- 1:24pull their finger towards the joint.
- 1:28Yeah, sure. There you go.
- 1:30Thank. You do you want to hit us stand.
- 1:35I'm, I'm going to stand. It's good shit, right?
- 1:37Yeah, this is fucking great. Thank you.
- 1:39It's it's a new strand that I grew myself.
- 1:42It's called Thunder Down Under. Well, that's really good.
- 1:48You can. Answer back to you, OK.
- 1:51I love the relaxed nature of having a card house in the
- 1:54combat zone. Because this doesn't fucking
- 1:56help. OK, I've got 9.
- 2:00Fucking hell Mr. TV man. Oh shit.
- 2:04They have 1515 that's. Good.
- 2:09O22 table wins. Ping lays out their cards and
- 2:16they had a 5 and ace, A2A6 and A5.
- 2:19Wow. Which adds up to. 19.
- 2:23Wow, you know right? Can't do math, so you have to
- 2:26tell me. Not sure we'll flip their cards
- 2:29over. They had a.
- 2:31You can pull them out and put them on the table in theory.
- 2:33Retro had a nine. Well, I.
- 2:37Want to come play some some blackjack?
- 2:40Where are y'all? Jeb moves through the room and
- 2:43down to the table. Iona, are you?
- 2:47Are you spending again? Yes, I am.
- 2:50You can hear Iona spinning another slot machine in the
- 2:53background. Let.
- 2:55Me. Let me paint a picture for you.
- 2:57You see Iona's a silhouette in the glow of the multicolor slot
- 3:06machine as it tinkles and jingles and lights flash and
- 3:14shimmer around Iona and you. You.
- 3:18Flip to APOV of the slot machine and the lights are just
- 3:22reflecting off of Iona's eyes, and they're larger than you've
- 3:26ever seen. Oh shit, Iona's eye.
- 3:31I know it's going to come out on top for the rest of us.
- 3:38Hold one, spin the rest. It is a spade.
- 3:43I'm going for it. I'm going big.
- 3:47You do not lose a spin because the machine gives you a reroll.
- 3:50Great. OK, I'm going to.
- 3:54There's a * 2 at the back here, so hold hold four and five,
- 4:00which is again a spade, but they're next to each other so I
- 4:03want to hold them. Gosh darn it.
- 4:08Downtown, folks, I think those machines back there, I was
- 4:11playing with the island for a bit, but I'm telling you,
- 4:14they're they're totally red. So I'm coming over here because
- 4:17you know what? You can't cheat.
- 4:19You can't keep the car. I mean, you totally can.
- 4:21I've done it plenty of times. I mean, you know, not an
- 4:24establishment, not an establishment like this dealer.
- 4:28Just, you know, Anyway, I'd like to play if that's all right with
- 4:32y'all. Great.
- 4:36Iona, as you fail, the guy next to you smirks, collects a large
- 4:40reward from the machine he's at, and moves, and the machine he's
- 4:43sitting at is 100 per play. Do you move over?
- 4:50I take a look around the room. Is anyone else making moves
- 4:55towards this machine? Is anyone else even I in this
- 4:57machine? No, no.
- 4:59But the indent on the chair in front of it gives you the
- 5:01impression that guy was sitting there for a while and he had a
- 5:04lot of money. He won a lot of money all.
- 5:06Right, I'm in. I only moves over and starts to
- 5:10settle in for another set of spins meanwhile.
- 5:14Yeah, I guess before we go in, yeah, I'll put in like, well, we
- 5:17can play a couple of rounds guys.
- 5:18Let's let's up the the ante a little bit here.
- 5:22So I'm going to put in. 15 right BB puts in 15.
- 5:27And I stick. Who else?
- 5:29What is anyone else upping? Are you staying standard?
- 5:31Oh. I'm putting in 15.
- 5:33I like that. Yeah. 100 for retro.
- 5:38Whoa. Retro means it.
- 5:42So we all have to put in 100. Nope.
- 5:44Nope, this isn't Hooker. It was poker and.
- 5:48Yeah, yeah. Yeah, and Vendel puts in 50
- 5:52bucks. See, it's a good thing we're not
- 5:53playing poker, because retro would fucking ruin you all.
- 5:56Only because VV did, and Vendel's still pretty green to
- 5:59this so. I.
- 6:01Thought basically coffee and. Paper 50 or 1/5. 50 Vendel puts
- 6:06in 50 bucks. VV is that what you said?
- 6:09I was going to put in 15, but you know what?
- 6:11I'll put 150. I'll put in.
- 6:13All right. Nice, nice, Oh.
- 6:15Is that what we're doing? We're doing 50.
- 6:16This is this is a hyper OK. Jab jab, are you humidated to
- 6:21put 50 down? I mean, if that's what the
- 6:24rarest of the crew's doing, then I got it.
- 6:26I got to follow suit, you know? Right.
- 6:29Oh, that's very funny. Says the dealer as they wink at
- 6:31you and deal the cards. Oh, Doctor.
- 6:36I stick. I'm just getting crap cards.
- 6:39OK, what do I do? I should hit OK.
- 6:44Vendel's talking to Iona through that.
- 6:46Yeah, that's. What?
- 6:50About now, is this good? Hey, no table talk.
- 6:54No, it's bad. Bad did I lose?
- 6:58Yeah. Oh shit, I'm I'm, I'm bust.
- 7:00Fuck. Oh Vendel, too bad retro will
- 7:07stay knock table. I'll hit.
- 7:11It says ping. Oh fuck bust damn.
- 7:15It. Jed.
- 7:16What happens? Hit me.
- 7:18All right, I slug slug him in the shoulder.
- 7:22Wow, as your pasta card. You asked.
- 7:26Are you hitting again? You hit me.
- 7:28I hit him again. I did.
- 7:30Oh wait, wait, I didn't get another card.
- 7:32You have 3 cards. I'm not seeing any other cards
- 7:35on my screen. Oh, wait.
- 7:37Those aren't your cards, dude. Your cards are in your hand.
- 7:40A little pink card. Click the three.
- 7:43It's down by your name. Wow.
- 7:45Look at that. Oh God.
- 7:46OK, I made a huge mistake last time.
- 7:52Well thankfully I was saved and I'm actually looking great so.
- 7:58Stick. Yeah, I'm staying with it.
- 8:00I shouldn't, should not have hit, but it actually totally
- 8:05worked out. Jeff, I thought you knew how to
- 8:06play blackjack. Oh, I just didn't realize that
- 8:09my cards were it's these the digital cards.
- 8:11I never, never worked with these hologram cards before.
- 8:15I'm not not used to them. Before the dealer yields their
- 8:21card, I want to keep a close eye on to make sure that there ain't
- 8:28no cheating. No sleight of hand.
- 8:31No sleight of hand. Yeah, OK, Roll a perception
- 8:33check. Who would be cheating?
- 8:37A place out in the combat zone and you got a dealer that's
- 8:41showing 11. I see where?
- 8:46Is it? Where are you any awareness?
- 8:55I rolled on 11, but it's a crit fail, so no.
- 8:58I got too many of these moonshines in me.
- 9:02That was this Thunder down under.
- 9:05Everything's a little. Dealer has to hold on 17, don't
- 9:07they? Yeah, unless it's a soft 17, so.
- 9:10It's not a soft, it's a heart though.
- 9:12Dealer has 17, who's the winner? Ain't bad, I got 20 ah. 19 damn.
- 9:21You got me. You mean got you.
- 9:22We all win. Are you?
- 9:23Yeah. All right, We all.
- 9:24Win against the ass. Sorry, I'm used to playing
- 9:27poker. Is there a poker table up and
- 9:30maybe we all should go have a hand in hand the.
- 9:32Poker. It's Blackjack Knight.
- 9:33That's all right. It's OK.
- 9:36And for this wonderful display of card playing, Retro earns
- 9:43200, Jeb earns 100, and Phoebe earns 100.
- 9:47Woohoo. For a final time, we go back to
- 9:50the slot machine. Come on.
- 9:53Slot. Where Iona is now sitting at the
- 9:56100. Big money.
- 9:59Big money slot machine. This is the loosest slot they
- 10:01got here. I'm going to be smart about it
- 10:05this time. I'm only going to put in one
- 10:08spin at a time. All right.
- 10:13Hold on one SEC. All right?
- 10:17And I spin. Oh, that's very close.
- 10:23Hold 1-2 and three. I got the skulls.
- 10:29That's 200 all. Right, I'm I'm going to put in
- 10:32300 and fresh spin. Fresh spin.
- 10:36Yes. Crash it all all.
- 10:43Right. Do a fresh spin.
- 10:47Pretty good, pretty good, Pretty good pretty.
- 10:51Good, that's no latency. Hold 3 and 4 hold. 3.
- 10:56And four so because that is a heart and a club and then the no
- 11:00latency button, the skull and the blood drop, I will re spin.
- 11:06You did not lose that spin. Sure.
- 11:08Do you? Want to do the same ones?
- 11:11We have just re roll it. Let it ride.
- 11:16Oh, so you do get. If you if you cash out now, you
- 11:19can make one time times one point and 1 1/2.
- 11:22Which is what, 450? I'll take it.
- 11:27I'll take. It plus the money back in.
- 11:29That's a way, yeah. So it's it's times, whatever you
- 11:31get back. You did make money back.
- 11:34You made money back, Iona. You pulled 450 eddies out of the
- 11:38machine and it goes berserk. Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding,
- 11:40Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding.
- 11:51Hey, that song's in the public domain.
- 11:53Interesting, interesting winning tunes jingles that they have at
- 11:57this. Oh no.
- 11:59That was that was coming off of Iona's.
- 12:04Because they finally won the slot machine.
- 12:06Then we actually saw Iona. Sing for the first time.
- 12:12It. Wasn't ambient music, it was
- 12:15literally Ion. Toyota was constantly trained in
- 12:18opera. What the hell was that single
- 12:21tear? Rolls down.
- 12:22I understand. And Iona, you're so excited
- 12:26about this win, and as you're celebrating holding your money,
- 12:29you notice that there is an extra device attached to this
- 12:33slot machine. I jiggle it.
- 12:37Is it a skimmer? Is skimmer.
- 12:44Oh, first of all, can I RIP it off?
- 12:47Roll a rolling check. Rolling. 14 yes, it snaps right
- 12:56off. Really simple task.
- 12:57It was attached with a little bit of adhesive and as you do
- 13:00that, a little alert goes off on your device and you lose $400.
- 13:05On on my my like my tile or. Because you used your Eddy
- 13:10account to give this machine money.
- 13:12You did not say cash and so it took your data and that data has
- 13:15now been given to someone else. Yep.
- 13:19Vandel. I I just I just vent vandel over
- 13:23the earpiece when you have a moment could.
- 13:26You could. You contact the bank and tell
- 13:30them to freeze my account. Yes, raw bureaucracy.

- 15:05What the Hell's going on? I just got caught, I got scammed
- 15:12you. Got scammed in your own place?
- 15:14I. Sure, Dawn did.
- 15:18Hold on. I'm so confused.
- 15:20It's under. Education.
- 15:22You managed to cancel your your account before yet another
- 15:25transaction is pushed through and you only lose 400 entities.
- 15:31Still made 50 bucks. Still made 50 bucks, but
- 15:34obviously I would imagine my owner is slightly concerned that
- 15:37someone is essentially ripping her off not only for the money
- 15:40she has won from her own business, but also her own
- 15:43business. Yes, I would like to check the
- 15:48cameras to see if it was the person in front of me who was
- 15:53baiting me to use the machine to see if they installed.
- 16:00Well, you know where the cameras are.
- 16:01They're in the office. I.
- 16:02Sure do. I'm just telling you what I'm
- 16:04doing. I see this.
- 16:06What's going on? I just.
- 16:09Iona got scammed skimmer. Oh, I made a skimmer.
- 16:17Now they got your, they got your card.
- 16:18Info Iona got a skimmer. Yeah, here I've I pass it over
- 16:25to you. Interesting.
- 16:30We need to check all of these machines.
- 16:32Do you? Want me to go and do that while
- 16:34you do? Please.
- 16:37Bendel gets up from the table and thanks the dealer, giving
- 16:40them a little 5 Eddie tip and then moves to the back of the
- 16:43room to start checking over those machines.
- 16:46There's still a power source on this.
- 16:47It's still got like battery power to it, right?
- 16:50Can I, can I go ahead and access the account?
- 16:56Because if it's a skimmer and it means it's dumping money into
- 17:00account, so that means I can find out what the account is, it
- 17:02wouldn't be protected. Something of this level isn't
- 17:04got some kind of encryption. Give it a shot.
- 17:09Good idea went. To the wrong page.
- 17:15Retro. You fiddle with this thing until
- 17:17you find a little interface plug and you click in.
- 17:20The DV was genuinely a 28 year old of 33 and you discover the
- 17:27and you discover the account itself is an intermediary and it
- 17:31funnels the the money through about 1000 different accounts to
- 17:36find. The final destination of this
- 17:38was a 35, but you do know the start of the route and you find
- 17:43the signal it is giving off for its administrator to.
- 17:46In theory, you could use that signal to triangulate them.
- 17:51There's a lot of triangulation we're going to be happening
- 17:53around there. If I have that then can I?
- 17:59I'm assuming it's all on the same network though, right?
- 18:01Yeah, it's a shortwave thing, so they have to be in the area to
- 18:04download to the data. Then I would like to try to
- 18:08clandestinely reroute any of their skimming to an open
- 18:14account of my own now. Sure, roll electronic security
- 18:16tech again so you don't fuck it up.
- 18:17And put three points of luck into this.
- 18:19Oh shit. But with the three points it
- 18:23does beat the DV of 28. Retro what's?
- 18:27What's that thing you got there? My new money making thing.
- 18:31What is it though? Wasn't it?
- 18:33Didn't I only have that thing? What's that thing do?
- 18:35It looks. Kind of.
- 18:36Well when when you you know use your electronic skimmer for your
- 18:42Eddie account, This takes copy of it and whatever money routed
- 18:48it then has access to to then maneuver around depending on how
- 18:52good of encryption your bank has.
- 18:53So I've just rerouted it so any of the skimmers within the
- 18:57building will go to a personal account that I just opened.
- 19:02So you're stealing money from Ion's business?
- 19:07Are are you able to identify the skimmer from this?
- 19:10Unfortunately they got they got me on a firewall towards the
- 19:13end. I know where it starts though.
- 19:17They're they're somewhere in the building.
- 19:20Well, maybe we can find something on the security
- 19:24cameras that Ion is looking at. Iona, you moved through the back
- 19:28room and the door to the office is locked.
- 19:30I knock. It's Iona.
- 19:36And you hear the door click open and then it slides into the
- 19:41wall. How are you?
- 19:45I've been better. I found a skimmer on one of our
- 19:48slot machines. Fuck.
- 19:52I don't know how long it's been there, but I wanted to check to
- 19:55see if it was the person in front of me or the person on it
- 19:59before me that installed it. Not not to be.
- 20:02Are you going to like deal with the problems?
- 20:06Yeah, I hadn't thought that far ahead, but yes.
- 20:09Oh fuck yeah. Normally I have to do it myself
- 20:12because you guys are never around.
- 20:13I mean, I know. Well, like you own the business,
- 20:15but holy shit. I just do things here on my own.
- 20:18I'm sorry, no, no, I I'm a bad no.
- 20:21It's great. I'm super excited.
- 20:22Thank you. I, I, I'm not sorry.
- 20:24It comes across as a little bit, you know it's holder, it's not
- 20:27the. Vibe No, Listen, listen.
- 20:29I'm not trying to be a bad business owner.
- 20:31You run this business beautifully and whatever you
- 20:35need from me always let me know. And if it's to beat up some bad
- 20:40guy, we can do that. Oh sorry Shark 1 moment.
- 20:48Yeah. Yellow.
- 20:50Hey Iona, got a hold of that skimmer thing that you got?
- 20:55I got good news and great news. Good news.
- 20:59I found out that whoever is using the skimmer thing is in
- 21:04house, so wherever they're at, they're in the building for
- 21:07running this thing. Great news, whoever they're
- 21:13scamming skimming that money off of it no longer goes to them.
- 21:16It goes into my account now. So awesome.
- 21:23Two transactions come in, one for 54 eddies and one for 38.
- 21:26Oh I just got 54 and 38 transactions.
- 21:30Nice. Where would that be?
- 21:34Where is that the slot machine? Where is that where sharp?
- 21:38Where would those? Transactions come through.
- 21:40Yeah, that's so me. Hold on.
- 21:48Waiting. Oh, excuse me, they added.
- 21:55They've up, they've updated the. Sheets currently.
- 21:57That's combat awareness. It's just combat awareness.
- 22:00Whoa. Vendel is extra perceptive
- 22:02because of their combat awareness.
- 22:05I I I found another one-on-one of the other machines.
- 22:08Iona check the vending machines as well.
- 22:12Oh shit, yeah, OK. Bendel finds a third one, but
- 22:17not one on the 4th machine that you were using the first time,
- 22:21and Bendel goes to look through the rest of the room.
- 22:24Pat's the guy on the shoulder who looks.
- 22:25Just be careful. What you stick your stuff into,
- 22:30in every sense. You and Bendel hangs up to go
- 22:35and look at the other vending machines.
- 22:36Just good life advice, careful what you stick your stuff into.
- 22:41Yes. Yeah, so why are you in the
- 22:43office? Because I wanted to check the
- 22:46cameras. Oh.
- 22:47Yeah, yeah. All right.
- 22:48I mean by by all means please. Shark gets up from his desk and
- 22:52offers you his computer. I I bustily lean over the desk.
- 22:59Sorry. Enormous Brack.
- 23:06That's. Cannon.
- 23:08That's cannon. It is cannon.
- 23:12All right, roll something to look through the footage.
- 23:18Bustily look through the footage.
- 23:21Why not bureaucracy? That's a vibe, yeah.
- 23:24There you are. Works in 21.
- 23:29You zoom back through the footage and you see yourself
- 23:31lose on the slot machine and you zoom through the footage and
- 23:35then the guy next to you gets up and you see him turn towards the
- 23:38camera and blow a really big pink bubble gum bubble.
- 23:42It pops as they walk away and they smile to themselves as they
- 23:45head towards the back door that you entered towards the
- 23:48bathroom. Well, all right, I'm going to
- 23:50change to the camp. The bathroom that points towards
- 23:53the OR the camera that points towards the bathroom.
- 23:56It's. Like the camera in the bathroom?
- 24:00I I'm going to switch to the camera that points towards the
- 24:03bathrooms. Has that person come out?
- 24:07No, they're still in the bathroom it seems.
- 24:09Or at least they haven't left the bathroom.
- 24:12Retro. You said they were still in the
- 24:14building. Oh, sorry, We were in the middle
- 24:15of another hand. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 24:18The the the signals in the building.
- 24:19The signals coming from in the building.
- 24:21You know what? I bet there's someone chewing
- 24:24bubble gum in the bathroom. Is that a euphemism?
- 24:26Or yeah, I don't know what that means.
- 24:29Sorry, no, I think that's how we identify the person which.
- 24:34Bathroom did they go into? Whichever doors on the left,
- 24:40they're both. They're both just all the used
- 24:42bathrooms, but it's the one on the left.
- 24:44OK, should one of us, you can go in there who wants to but.

- 24:57my own ethanol because I've had a lot of moonshine.
- 25:02You do you do have to take it out back though.
- 25:04You can't you can't beat them up in the bathroom, but please
- 25:07first question them to make sure that that it is them it's.
- 25:11Too bad Domino isn't here. Don't just beat up my patrons.
- 25:15Thank you. You do have a crush.
- 25:18No one would have ripped them out of the bathroom, brought
- 25:20them back and got whatever info we needed out of them.
- 25:25Baby, you have a problem. I'm just saying.
- 25:30Bendel finds no skimmers on the vending machines.

- 26:03night I guess I just lost 300 eddies, damn it.
- 26:07And you look down at at Ping's chips and they put down 300 on
- 26:11that hand. Rough thing.
- 26:17That's mine. Totally worked out for me.
- 26:19It worked out, yeah. You tap the table, you get a
- 26:22card, and then the dealer plays. Stays.
- 26:25And they they hold on a 17, everyone at the table except
- 26:29Ping who bust wins and you won't win another 180.

- 26:38and heads towards the bathroom as as Jeb celebrates his win of
- 26:44100. Days, yes.
- 26:49All right, retro, You head to the bathroom in the back.
- 26:52You pass by a team sitting on a bench in this backroom drinking
- 26:56a fizzy drink. Do.
- 26:59I notice anything about him. Not really.
- 27:02They're just there. OK, I'll just do a perception,
- 27:09OK? However, I also admit I am kind
- 27:14of drunk so. Yeah -2 yeah, still a decent
- 27:18perception. They don't seem like they're a
- 27:21threat to anyone, but you do see them seem a little sad.
- 27:25They probably lost a lot of money reason and that tracks.
- 27:28Hey, fuck you got you. Got something in your hair?
- 27:35What? In your hair you got.
- 27:38Do you mind if I mind if I pick that out?
- 27:41Sure. I'm going to go to pick it and
- 27:44then I'm going to try to use my own like sleight of hand for one
- 27:46of the 100 eddies that I won as a chip and just Oh yeah, yeah,
- 27:52yeah, 100 eddies. Roll to see if this is smooth or
- 27:55not. Rolled for smooth smoothness.
- 28:00I think I should roll to see if it's too cheesy, but sure, roll.
- 28:02For Rizz. Roll for Rizz.
- 28:05Oh no, you go to do it and poke them in the eye with the ship.
- 28:07Oh. Fuck.

- 28:13God damn it. You giving me 100 eddies?
- 28:17Yeah, you seem sad. Thank you, that's the least you
- 28:21can do for poking me in the fucking itune fuck.
- 28:24They get kind of, they get up and they walk away.
- 28:27Well now I feel bad because they don't feel like a kind of person
- 28:30I should have helped. Ow fuck.
- 28:34I thought they were one of the people that got scammed.
- 28:36And you head to the bathroom. As you enter the bathroom, the
- 28:41hum of the fan permeates through the room.
- 28:46The. Floor is a little damp.
- 28:48This is a shitty place and I need you to roll perception to
- 28:54see what you can hear in this room because some of the stools
- 28:57are occupied. Why is this floor sticky?
- 29:01Listen. For bubble gum.
- 29:04I feel like they just use the same mop water in here because
