- 0:26Alright, if you say so. Excuse me fresh.
- 0:28You're doing your Doo wop. Crazy son of a bitch.
- 0:31He's only like 3 years old. Ayona is pretty good at this
- 0:34actually. But what?
- 0:35What do we want for Domino? Right, Domino?
- 0:37Yes, This isn't all about about me.
- 0:40Quality doesn't matter. No, no, retro.
- 0:42Are is that a weapon you have there?
- 0:44Oh boy. Sir, what are you doing?
- 0:45Retro. Retro, what are you doing?
- 0:47Are you threatening me? Here we go.
- 1:00Are you threatening me? No, no, don't.
- 1:04Don't do that. I think you're threatening me.
- 1:07No, I'm not. Sir, what are you doing with
- 1:10your hands? They're on the desk, not moving.
- 1:13Don't. Don't do that.
- 1:14No, no, I can lean slightly to the right and look cooler this
- 1:17way. It's my good side.
- 1:19When they lean to the right, I'm going to face plant my head and
- 1:23do the counter. Your head to the counter.
- 1:29Why? Why Remy Remy, Why would you?
- 1:32I'm not doing anything. He just hit me and then I'm
- 1:35going to do it again. Roll rolling.
- 1:37And throw myself over the counter.
- 1:39Oh boy, here we go. I've I've.
- 1:42Seen this happen on the body, the body Cam footage that they
- 1:47release on the garden, you know what I mean?
- 1:49People, people fake this stuff all the time. 18 You
- 1:53successfully do this trick without hurting yourself.
- 1:57That's essentially what I think is the most important part in
- 1:59this particular moment. I learned it from watching a lot
- 2:02of WWA wrestling. I've learned how to take bumps.
- 2:09A. Lot of people learn how to do
- 2:13that in their college days. Yeah, I I did go to wrestling
- 2:18school for a little bit, but I just wasn't tough enough.
- 2:23I'm glad that the shop you're any of this.
- 2:26Maybe it was the TV head that you know.
- 2:29Didn't really help. Yeah, I couldn't.
- 2:30I couldn't get the the, I couldn't get the helmet on.
- 2:33They said that it wasn't. Allowed retro.
- 2:35You fling yourself over the counter and you land on the
- 2:38other side and there's a gasp in the crowd and the other vendors
- 2:42that can see this area look over and see the vendor leaning to
- 2:47his right with his hands down. The thing is, dude is right is
- 2:51away from you, not towards, so it just looks like he avoids you
- 2:55jumping at him. Oh.
- 2:57Boy, that really helps the story.
- 3:13Retro you rolled a crit fail, a crit fail on acting and the the
- 3:22the shopkeep looks down at you I.
- 3:25Don't know how I could do that. I studied with Julia.
- 3:29Look. You didn't graduate you.
- 3:32Didn't graduate, obviously. Look here, let me help you up.
- 3:34Come on, you're not the first person who's tried to like I've
- 3:38been. I've been selling at the market
- 3:40for a while. I sold them their feet.
- 3:41Do they work? Yes, thank you.
- 3:43They're really I, I think skate feet.
- 3:45Very cool. Sorry, I'm interrupting.
- 3:47Please continue. Look, I've got one item.
- 3:53You guys seem like you have loads of money, yes, No, they do
- 3:56have a lot of money. It's right there.
- 3:58They've got the money. That one right there has got a
- 4:00lot of money in their bank account because they're rich and
- 4:06successful, I mean. Can't you tell?
- 4:10I'm suave. Hair flip.
- 4:12Hair Flip. I thought your name was Clive.
- 4:16It's the same in Welsh and he points.
- 4:19And sort of awkwardly go leaves the area, leaves the view of the
- 4:23the argument and goes to like fiddle around one of the cases
- 4:25rather embarrassed and he feels a little scolded by Iona.
- 4:29Look, I've got this. I've got this.
- 4:30Hand. It's a pair of hands and they
- 4:34are three link digits. Can drill, it can chop, and it
- 4:39works as a heavy MLA weapon. OK.
- 4:43Only got 1 and if you stop this I'll sell it to you.
- 4:48Wow, you are an actual nice person.
- 4:53Because some of the other people here, they might get aggravated
- 4:56and just tell us to get the hell out of here.
- 4:59But. But no.
- 5:00But no, you just. You're still offering your wares
- 5:03to us. That is appreciate.
- 5:05He wrote a. Crit fail.
- 5:06That was really embarrassing and that guy over there still
- 5:08laughing at him so. Well, yeah, that's true.
- 5:12That's kind. Of feels like the situation
- 5:14solved. Itself, thanks to that crit
- 5:15fail, going to be real. To be honest, the only thing
- 5:18that's really hurt here is my pride.
- 5:21Yep, I see. That.
- 5:24That'll be 4 grand. Listen, I'm very sorry for my
- 5:30friend. They didn't get much of the
- 5:34attention they were looking for by doing the stunt.
- 5:38So the Iona Hagel VB says under her breath.
- 5:42I've I know, I know. When the story comes in, it's
- 5:47the Iona Hagel, Jeb. It's going to do that, Dale.
- 5:52So I'd like to take over from here if that's all right.

- 8:34to load the things into a little box that they'll sit in.
- 8:40It's not like armored or anything, but it'll keep it neat
- 8:44and they all kind of Tetris their way into it.
- 8:46It's a Tetramino selling box I suppose.
- 8:50And as they they fill it, they watch it with two of their eyes.
- 8:53But keep one eye on retro with this slight squint as you are
- 8:57still a little close. I know, I know what he's
- 9:01checking out, checking out a new washboard ABS that I got.
- 9:05He's been eyeing me up the whole time.

- 10:35Yeah, very good. Yeah, you catch Vivian in your
- 10:38arm. Big, burly, strong arms.
- 10:42Because you're actually Iona's pretty put off.

- 10:48directly on the other side and sees you catch them.

- 11:35that this woman is painted? I am.
- 11:37I'm just about to tell them that you, we shouldn't, we shouldn't
- 11:40make a big scene around Vivian, especially with her, you know,

- 11:48disperse, go shopping. Elvis or I mean, are you going
- 11:51to take care of it? Vivian Bendel and I will stay
- 11:54here with Jane. No, we need to.

- 12:05Fall over the counter again. Yeah, offering autographs or
- 12:09something, I don't know, just fuck off.
- 12:12What? About close up magic.
- 12:13Whatever you've got, Jeb, just make a distraction that isn't a
- 12:16fight. I know that's a tough one for
- 12:18you too. Jeb, let's go with the flash mob
- 12:21idea. All right, Retro is going to
- 12:24quickly walk a couple weeks away, start playing some royalty
- 12:27free music that we can use and start.
- 12:31Music playing currently at the market, by the way, but.
- 12:34We're going to do it as loud as we can and start doing our, our
- 12:39routine dance moves that we've been doing outside of our, our
- 12:44missions that we've just been kind of coming up together in
- 12:46case a moment like this was needed.
- 12:48And try to get other people around to either a watch or B
- 12:51join in if they can, because this is fun for everyone.
- 12:54I'm so glad we practiced these dance moves. 12345678812345678.
- 13:03That fades into the distance as you guys start a flash mob in
- 13:06the background and people start to dance with you.
- 13:09You're sort of in the the central area now of the glass
- 13:13market and a bunch of locals have got up to dance with you
- 13:16and no one's paying any attention whatsoever to the fact
- 13:21that Vivian has lost consciousness.
- 13:24But also because Clive is now break dancing along with you in
- 13:28the middle with their extra arms and it looks pretty badass.
- 13:32There's a little bit of extra spin that he can get now that he
- 13:35has his brand new. Because he can do head stands on
- 13:38his third arm. No, but he's got a brand new Red
- 13:40Hat and it's like helps with the spinning.
- 13:41Oh, I. Thought he was just doing it
- 13:42with his like. He has many moves by guy.
- 13:45You are seeing some like, supreme stuff, you know, like
- 13:49this is this is the kind of stuff that would win the
- 13:51Olympics anyway. Like the dinosaur pose.
- 13:55Yes, like the dinosaur pose. Retro.
- 13:57Exactly. Meanwhile, on the other side of
- 14:00the market, in a little bit of a corner near an exit, Vivian is
- 14:05unconscious on a bench. OK, I'm going to take a look at
- 14:10her and see if I can figure out what happened.
- 14:14Is she OK? She's going to be just fine.
- 14:17I'm sanitizing myself. Oh no.
- 14:20Oh, oh God. I'm I I you've.
- 14:26Run out of sanitizer. Yeah, I noticed that.
- 14:29A voice in the sky. I If you wouldn't mind taking
- 14:32care of this, Phoebe and Vendell, just watch Vivian.
- 14:38Jane, you're going to be just fine.
- 14:40I have to go. I will be right back.
- 14:44OK, that was strange. I don't care to Vendell.
- 14:51All right. Well, I will take a look at
- 14:54Vivian. You have done a great job.
- 14:56You put out your scanner you because you rolled over 22.

- 15:40There is a severe biotoxin in her and her heart is shutting
- 15:43down. So no, she's not OK.
- 15:45Vivian starts to phone the mouth.
- 15:48Like Oh my goodness, what I know like do I need is there like an
- 15:52anti like venom or something to help with something like this?

- 17:13OK, all right. This should help her and I
- 17:16administer the biotoxin. Or the anti venom.
- 17:18In the process of doing all of this, you also grab the syringe
- 17:21itself that she was hit with the dart.
- 17:23Oh yes, in your bag in the section that doesn't cost you
- 17:27anything. And then if there's a bit of
- 17:31storage in there and you jam it into her jugular.
- 17:34Her eyes burst open and she inhales the foam that was coming
- 17:37out of her mouth. A couple of Pats on the back and
- 17:43I just, like, put my hands on her shoulders and just.
- 17:46You're OK, you're OK, you're OK. Yeah, that'll taste a little
- 17:52nasty, but you're going to be all right.

- 22:27and you see that there are two left in the machine.
- 22:31I I just take the one. Yeah, and you see that there is
- 22:36chicken fried kibble in the other vending machine.
- 22:39It's cheap though. It's cheap.
- 22:41Yeah, it's like 22 eddies a bag and the bag serves like 4.
- 22:44Does. It come?
- 22:45Does it come with the wipes afterwards so my fingers don't
- 22:48get all sticky? No, the wipes are extra.
- 22:52You know what, I want to get wipes because you know I don't
- 22:54need to get my fingers all bad. The wipes are an annoying 7 per
- 23:00packet. How many are there?
- 23:047. So 40 I don't.
- 23:10Know how mad? Well, Jeb, Oh my goodness.
- 23:13Sorry, I saw you guys were doing some math so I thought I'd pop
- 23:17in. Well, good big Jeb.
- 23:20Yes, yes, I do love your your calculator brain.
- 23:25There's something about you that I love as a savant that you have
- 23:27of just being able to put numbers together.
- 23:30It's really just the the the multiplication tables all I got.
- 23:34Now do you go parentheses, multiplication and so forth?
- 23:37Or do you or you do brackets I. Have no idea what you're talking
- 23:42about. Are you a PEMDAS or you a beat
- 23:45ass? Beat ass.
- 23:49I mean, sometimes. I suppose mostly I should.
- 23:52So. So do you buy all 7 packets?
- 23:54Yeah. OK, you buy all 7 packets and
- 23:56the fried chicken and confused Jeb.
- 23:58Why? Nice.
- 23:59Very good. Awesome.
- 24:01Yeah. I'm going to make my way back to
- 24:04Vivienne. Cool, are you 2 safe away still?
- 24:08We don't. We still don't need a big crowd
- 24:09around her. I don't know how she is do.
- 24:11We do we still need to make a scene or do, but yeah, all
- 24:16right, Jeb, let's do, let's let's do the Bollywood one this
- 24:20time. Well, all right.
- 24:24Now I'm really depending on you this because you're the one who
- 24:26really has a dance moves down. So you got to you got to kick it
- 24:28into high gear on this one. Well that's true.
- 24:30I have been working on my on that like slag with the with
- 24:35with the knees and then hop up. Yep.
- 24:38Then you do. The the, the hand chest
- 24:41vibration, yeah. You got to be careful though
- 24:43because it's perfect down here, so don't burn.
- 24:45It's true. All right, I have to get a.
- 24:46Little bit more run. A little more speed.
- 24:51And they fade off into the distance to create another
- 24:54distraction. Roll for it.
- 24:55And Iona, you arrived to Vivienne and Vivi at the bench
- 25:01you left them at. Vivienne looks a little
- 25:04disheveled. So somebody tried to kill
- 25:11Vivienne? Oh, again, I know.
- 25:17And I'm pretty sure it's Danny Dark Side or somebody that works
- 25:21for him. Oh.
- 25:24Whoa. I knew this was going to come
- 25:26back and fight. Because of the assistant thing.
- 25:29Yeah, yeah. And Vivienne posted on the
- 25:32garden for everybody to see that she would be here tonight, so
- 25:38you know. Why is that a problem, Janie?
- 25:41Is that a problem? Normally it's not a problem, but
- 25:44if you have enemies. Oh, maybe do it afterwards?
- 25:50Yeah post it the next day so I'm nowhere near exactly is that
- 25:55what I should be doing to keep myself safe Yes crazy no one
- 25:58told me education system as am I right this.
- 26:05Angled technology, it's still, we're still trying to learn the
- 26:07best ways to protect ourselves on on the garden, you know?
- 26:12Yeah, otherwise your life could be online, right?
- 26:18Right. Oh, it's too real.
- 26:20Oh, it's too real in here. Is she all right?
- 26:24Can we like? Yes.
- 26:26Well, no, I feel fine. It's just a little bit of a my
- 26:29my heart feels honey, so I'll just I just got a new one next
- 26:33week. Want to run on a bad ticker?
- 26:40I suppose I should leave. Otherwise there could be a fight
- 26:45and then you won't be able to do your purchases.
- 26:47I don't see any bags, baby. Oh, they're all being held
- 26:51behind the counters. We plan on being here for a
- 26:53while. Oh, OK, well, I know Danny wants
- 26:58me dead. There are only a.
- 27:00Few. I mean, maybe he wants me dead.
- 27:02Maybe he just wanted to scare me.
- 27:04Maybe you knew I'd get saved by someone fabulous like you.
- 27:07No, not you, Jane. Just be careful because next
- 27:14time there may not be a conveniently placed Med tech
- 27:17next to you. Oh.
- 27:19Right. Yes, that's right.
- 27:22Jane, are you a Ventec? No, she is.
- 27:25Oh, fuck. Right.
- 27:26Sorry. Whatever you gave me, it's
- 27:29loopy. Do you have anything else for
- 27:31me? Make me feel better?
- 27:33You know I'm. I'm down a third of my HP.
- 27:36So. It's a bad day.
- 27:39I can give you some stimulants. Oh, now we're talking.
- 27:45Here you go. Well.
- 27:47Thank you, honey. You know what?
- 27:49I'm going to take that from the, the, the charge thing.
- 27:53My we need to come up with a name for this.
- 27:55My Med tech bag, my trauma team charge pack.
- 27:58Yeah. It only cut this the the
- 28:01stimulants really cheap. It's like 20 eddies.
- 28:03It's like a nothing but she hands you 100.
- 28:06Eddie Bill. Thanks.
- 28:07Maybe. Thanks.
- 28:09You've got to tip your doctors. It's a dystopia that am I right?
- 28:14I just go this way. Shall I go this way to the right
- 28:17or shall I go that way? Which would you think is the
- 28:19safest? I imagine this is a pretty big
- 28:21decision. Here where?
- 28:27Where are you? Where is your car coming from?
- 28:29Do you know? Can you call the car?
- 28:34Let's just do it now. Where do you want it to land,
- 28:36West or east? Are we?
- 28:39We're parked. If.
- 28:41You'd like to. Try and remember anything about
- 28:44when she fainted. You're all local expert.
- 28:47It seems important, so I will people.
- 28:52Local expert is a base of four. You've lived in Night City for a
- 28:55while. You haven't put any points into
- 28:57it though, so I yeah, you've got 12.
- 29:03I'm going to say Iona gets no, no, I see.
- 29:06I only get 6 to local expert and.
- 29:08Because back, back. Backroom stuff that she's been
- 29:11involved in and Tracy, you get 5 because you have done trauma
- 29:14team stuff. So 13, yeah. 14 over here. 14
- 29:19Yeah, I am a slightly higher. So that's above mid as a 14 Iona
- 29:25Vivi, what you remember is something going past your ear.
- 29:29Yeah. Yep, and what you remember,
- 29:34Iona, is someone left by the east entrance just after Vivi's
- 29:40hair kind of floofed in the air. Now was Vivi standing next to me
- 29:46at the I'm I'm looking at the map from where Jane was standing
- 29:52to the east of me with Vivian. Yes, Jane is where Vivi was if
- 29:57Vivian was Vivi. Wow, that.
- 30:00Made it even more confusing. Essentially, Vivienne was
- 30:04between you and Vivi, and it came.
- 30:07The hair flicked towards you. So came from the east, yes, so I
- 30:13was correct. What we're going to do is we're
- 30:16going to escort you to where our van is and I'm I'm going to send
- 30:21Vivienne a pin or I'm going to send Jane a pin of where we
- 30:26parked Vanna White. So call the car there.
- 30:30And that way we will move as a group and then retro and retro
- 30:37and who's the other one? Jeb can protect us as well.
- 30:41So I just we're going to come away from this opening of the
- 30:45market. In your dancing, Jeb and your
- 30:50movement, you've inspired a bunch of people.
- 30:54There's a conga line of citizens and notable people jumping
- 30:59through the market. A few of the vendors are a
- 31:00little pissed off because they could be customers right now,
- 31:04but everyone's having a pretty good time.
- 31:06You found a can of shine. If you want to drink that while
- 31:10you dance, you can. Don't mind 5 do 5678.
- 31:15Don't resist watching drugs. 785 32 I lost care but that's
- 31:21alright. I'm still going.
- 31:22I'm vibing. And the music keeps playing.
- 31:26Everybody with Vivienne is walking her to the West exit,
- 31:30and Jeb manages to cause a crowd to actually block the South
- 31:35entrance so that you are not seen moving through the crowd.
- 31:39And there in the opening is a black vehicle waiting in a
- 31:43parking space for Vivienne. Together in a big land.
- 31:46Big land right there from that door.
- 31:48Perfect and kick and kick and kick.
- 31:51Yeah. Yeah, that's it, champ.
- 31:55I didn't know you could do the splits.
- 31:58I can't. Roll high enough not to be re
- 32:01addicted to shine but it does give you plus one to a few
- 32:05things including athletics if you want to try and do the
- 32:08splits again. You know what I'm feeling?
- 32:11Feeling confident. Let's do it again.
- 32:13Oh. Sixteens.
- 32:14Out you managed to do a split where you bend the front leg
- 32:18which stops you from hurting your gonads.
- 32:20There's close one there. We got through it nice.
- 32:23And Vivian is by the car in front of VV and all.
- 32:29Right darling, please don't post where you're going to be.
- 32:34Post afterwards. Where I'm coming from.
- 32:37Exactly, and if you have any issue with Mr. Dark Side, I
- 32:42suppose let us know because I do feel bad.
- 32:45It is my. Fault.
- 32:46No, no, it's fine. I'll put a hit on him too.
- 32:48We'll have our Tay Todd today. Beautiful.
- 32:51So much better. Yeah.
- 32:53No, no, Jane, can we put a hit out on Mr. Dark Side?
- 32:57OK. Yeah, do you?
- 32:58Want it to be serious? Yeah.
- 33:00He gave me drugs. This is bullshit.
- 33:03I would have just slapped him. See you later, honey.
- 33:06Have a good night. And they drive off.
- 33:08I love Vivian and Jane. I'm sorry.
- 33:11Go ahead. Avoided the the the conflict
- 33:13here at the glass market without a target.
- 33:17Will the hitman even try? He doesn't even know that you've
- 33:20done anything because of Jeb's dancing.
- 33:22And you walk back into the market, where Jeb finishes a
- 33:27dance and does a little spin. I have a question hit me.
- 33:31I noticed someone in the crowd and I want to know if I know who
- 33:35they are. Sure.
- 33:38I guess I'm going to roll local expert to see if I recognize
- 33:42this Ram's head that I see here. So it's 15.
- 33:46Yes, yes, you do. You've heard of his name?
- 33:49He's a hit man. Rams.
- 33:52Rams Head. I quickly ducked back into the
- 33:56market and I can see that he is standing outside the South
- 33:59entrance. So I'm going to pull Vivi and
- 34:02Vendel into this little alcove just to just to the the north of
- 34:08of that entrance There, there the hitman is still here.
- 34:15Oh yes, I I should probably say it over the comps.
- 34:20Just so everyone knows there was a hit man and he is still here.
- 34:24They are still here. I don't, I don't actually know
- 34:26who they are. I've never met them.
- 34:28I've just heard of them. Yeah, of course the hit man's
- 34:30here. Jeb's fucking hitting it out
- 34:32here on the floor. Awesomely.
- 34:33The other. People, they got out here.
- 34:35No, no, just to the South entrance.
- 34:41The the person with the the I have to peek my head out for a
- 34:44second. The person with the I'm zooming
- 34:46in the scary face and the Black Hat.
- 34:50Well, that definitely makes a good profile for a hitman.
- 34:55Scary face, dark hat. It's like, I mean, he maybe he
- 34:59kind of stands out too, you know?
- 35:00I I think that's Rams head though.
- 35:02I I think we should. The Rams head.
- 35:05Oh, yes, yes. That's that's bad.
- 35:08Why is that bad? Because he did a good job for
- 35:10Martin. Oh, oh, I know one of one of the
- 35:16guys that you, I know, you don't remember anybody's name.
- 35:19He's on the 4th floor. He runs that team.
- 35:22Had that guy killed. Martin runs the team.
- 35:25I got that guy killed, I promise you that.
- 35:29Never mind, he's not gotten to me.
- 35:32OK, should we take him out before he takes us?
- 35:36Well, I he's just a working man. Just a working man.
- 35:41He just tries to assassinate Vivian.
- 35:43And that's his job. Also, just because they're a hit
- 35:46man doesn't necessarily mean that they were the ones who did
- 35:48it. Are we sure that's the only hit
- 35:49man here? Are there others?
- 35:53That's like pacing around looking a little pissed off.
- 35:55I. Mean, he does seem pretty
- 36:02pissed. But let's take him out.
- 36:05We should know we can get some info out of them.
- 36:10We can get some, we can get some details out of him, like whose
- 36:14next target is who, who else he might be working for if he's
- 36:17working for our boy Danny Darkside.
- 36:21That's all. We might not buy you anything.
- 36:24You're right, my hollow, my hollow gear.
- 36:31Did you know anything in the end?
- 36:34Not yet I well, I I have to find what hollow my hollow wear.
- 36:40I'll just. Go talk with him.
- 36:42You you go talk with him. I'm going to go buy some gear.
- 36:45BB as you know because you've been to the glass market a few
- 36:47times, the clothing and armour bench is to the north, just
- 36:52around the corner of where you are.
- 36:54Yes, N just around the corner of where I am, I accidentally walk
- 36:58into a wall and I go around. Vendel follows Iona down to
- 37:03where Jeb has finished dancing and you can see Rams head in the
- 37:07street. He's outside of the glass market
- 37:10and just pushes some guy fuck out.
- 37:11Of my weight. He lights a cigarette.
- 37:14It sits at the edge of the street.
- 37:16We're going. Are we going?
- 37:17Let's get out of my way. These people that move.
- 37:22Did you? Did you start conga line?
- 37:26Oh my God. Director's just going to dance
- 37:30through the conga line because retro has rhythm and they can
- 37:33just easily get through hey. Hey, does that mean, does that
- 37:40mean we're leaving all of us? Is this a whole whole party
- 37:42thing? We're gone.
- 37:43If you want to go ahead and keep rock rolling that you feel more
- 37:46than no. No, no, no, it's fine.
- 37:47It's fine. I'm going.
- 37:48I'm just having fun, but it's fine.
- 37:51Fuck. I'm going to go.
- 37:53I'm not going to go outside with, I don't know, I guess then
- 37:56I'm going to pop up AJ in my mouth and.
- 37:59Go Why are you behind me? I'm I was about to ask, but
- 38:03you've got a light. I don't know, I can't find my
- 38:05lighter. Yeah, puts his finger up towards
- 38:08you, his middle finger, and then a flame appears.
- 38:10Pretty edgy. I like that, thanks.
- 38:11There you go. And he lights another cigarette.
- 38:14No, you wanted shit you could have asked for.
- 38:17Before I was just walking up, man, like, hey, you seem pretty
- 38:20upset if you don't need some. Like if you need somebody to
- 38:23talk to just to lose fat, I could do that for you.
- 38:25But it can also just go away. It seems like you just need
- 38:28somebody to like, kind of like get all this energy out.
- 38:31Let me look here. I got a joy.
- 38:35Oh dude. Yeah, here.
- 38:36Where have you? Have you here?
- 38:37Sure, and he lights his finger again and lights it and lets you
- 38:40take the first hit. Here we go, Jim.
- 38:51Yeah, No, I just. I just failed a job that sucks.
- 38:56Failed a job? What do you mean you failed a
- 38:58job? How do you failed a job?
- 38:59What do you do? Kill people.
- 39:03Oh like really kill people? Yeah, corporate contracts,
- 39:10Joseph Lovers. I don't.
- 39:14I I was looking at when people hurt animals.
- 39:16I do that for free. You hurt animals for free.
- 39:19No, I hurt the people who hurt the animals for free.
- 39:22But are you high? Oh no, sorry.
- 39:25Yes is the answer. It's all right, Look, I got.
- 39:28I got a little confused for a second.
- 39:29I don't know how sweet is this? Oh, this is Spaceship Star
- 39:35Crush. Is that his name or this string?
- 39:39Gambi. It's a pretty cool name, I got
- 39:41to admit it. That's a that's that's Jebediah,
- 39:46the winner of the blood race. Oh shit.
- 39:49Yeah. Hey, nice to meet you.
- 39:51You shake your hand. It's great.
- 39:52Great to meet you too, Hitman. Yep.
- 39:57He's an actual hit man. Yep.
- 39:59Yeah, I'm wondering if maybe you know, how much are your services
- 40:02because, you know, we, we have had to also kill some people in
- 40:06the past and honestly, you know, a professional like you might
- 40:10come in handy sometime. Depends on how hard they want me
- 40:13to attempt. Like if they kind of just want
- 40:16me to like scare him a little bit, then it's, it's so I now I,
- 40:21I, I don't think it worked. So I'm going to have to charge
- 40:23this guy less shit. That's it man, any way we can
- 40:27help? I already spent the money.
- 40:30Oh, does anyone want you dead and I kill you?
- 40:35Unfortunately, nobody wants you. Do you, do you know of anybody
- 40:37with ATV for a head that that people want to have dead?
- 40:41No, some people don't like that DJ calls guy.
- 40:44Anyway, can I help you guys? Hey man, I.
- 40:48Wasn't here. To help to let you vent like.
- 40:51No thanks dude. But there are other people like,
- 40:53what does this one want, Corporal?
- 40:55I don't. Even know who these people are,
- 40:57really. Hi.
- 40:59Hello. I'm the corporal.
- 41:01I was. I was introducing myself.
- 41:07Do you need? Do you need a high?
- 41:09And he like dusts off his hand and puts his hand out.
- 41:12Hi, we've never met actually, but you did a job for my
- 41:16associate Martin. Martin Martin Work Corp.
- 41:21Oh, 4th floor. Martin Yeah, I killed a guy.
- 41:26I pushed him off a bridge. Wonderful work, wonderful work.
- 41:30Everybody was talking about it. It was wonderful.
- 41:34Who were you? Who were you here for?
- 41:37Oh, some red headed woman. I was meant to leave the
- 41:39assistant alive so it could look look like her fault.
- 41:43It's a really powerful biotoxin. It's expensive.
- 41:46Who would want? Who would want to kill?
- 41:49I believe that was Vivienne. She's one of my my dearest,
- 41:53closest friends. Oh, it's just business.
- 41:55I'm no. No, no.
- 41:56But I honestly, I just want to know.
- 41:58Oh. Look, I, I failed the job.
- 42:07I think they left their vehicle's not here and he wanted
- 42:11her dead today. And so if I can't do it today,
- 42:13then he doesn't want it at all. So I've got to give him back
- 42:17half because I definitely shot her and there was this person in
- 42:21the way they were wearing like a, a, a medical jacket and I'm
- 42:27not around here. But if I'd seen her, I'd be
- 42:29like, wow, it was their fault, but not here.
- 42:32So whoever that was, there's something.
- 42:35And I think she spiked shit. Yeah, shit, That's that's.
- 42:41Well I got to give half the money back so I need like 1500.
- 42:46Are you asking me for 1500 for you to tell me who hired you?
- 42:51Oh yeah, totally like business. Hey, stop Bogart in the joint,
- 42:55dude. Oh.
- 42:56Sorry. Thanks.
- 43:00What about half of that? Well, persuasion.
- 43:15Oh, persuasion, not perception. 1 second.
- 43:19One moment I lost it again. Nah, no.
- 43:25It's hard keeping track of these scales.
- 43:27Wait, I found it. Nice Persuasion 18.
- 43:33Sure, 750. Great.
- 43:36I mean, it's not our fault that you didn't kill your mark today.
- 43:39No, you know it happens. But but hopefully this helps
- 43:41ease the blow. I give him 750.
- 43:44Hey, and thanks for being cool about all of this.
- 43:48Of course, it's just a job, yeah.
- 43:50Right, that's nice. You know, I have a a truth
- 43:53problem. So I just if it's really hard,
- 43:59like I had to really concentrate not to tell you that it was
- 44:01Danny dark side. Thank you for the money, by the
- 44:02way. I just tell it's it's why I do
- 44:06corpo, because they don't care if you tell them the truth.
- 44:08Like that guy I killed, you know, the guy I pushed off the
- 44:10bridge. I also put off both his hands.
- 44:13For fun. So when you.
- 44:14Say no, no, I, I, I, I, I I just wanted to.
- 44:19You're like, you're like Abraham Lincoln if he were an assassin.
- 44:24Yeah. You just can't help it but tell
- 44:26the truth. Can't help and you know the hand
- 44:28cutting thing. Right, right.
- 44:31Yeah. Cool, we all have our own
- 44:34things, so. Absolutely good weed TB head
- 44:37guy. Oh yeah.
- 44:38Nice. I guess I'm I'm going to be able
- 44:44to get those tires after all. Pax Shit, that's not what I
- 44:47expected today. Hey, Jeb, quick question.
- 44:51Yeah, who cut down a Cherry Tree?
- 44:53That was George Washington. And what did he say after that?
- 45:02Take that Cherry Tree. I don't know.
- 45:16Next to happen? Oh no.
- 45:18Light and sleep. You design clothes.
- 45:25Wow. Well.
- 45:26I don't know why you just don't offer your service.
- 45:27I can do the 1st 16 would you like that is?
- 45:30That about the same guy. Look what I got.
- 45:32Is it on? Are you naked underneath?
- 45:33Well, that's fine. Could you reverse engineer it so
- 45:36it's kind of like a stealth? Suit as long as you don't break
- 45:39it. What happened to that Lady?
- 45:40Oh, she's fine. What's going on?
- 45:42Damn. Is it usually this dark?

- 45:49That's why they didn't tell. You as much sugar as you can.
- 45:51No way. Yeah.
- 45:53Ma'am, I, I apologize. It was.
- 45:56I will gently sway along. You know she's got 2 left feet
- 45:59sometimes. Right.
- 46:02All know about that. It would be a vibe killed, but I
- 46:05think you just have to dance through.
- 46:08NCPD is so unhelpful. Oh.
- 46:10Shit. Get close to you, get all up on
- 46:12you, start dancing, and then they pickpocket you and steal
- 46:15you for everything. Oh, Jeb.
- 46:17Oh God. Oh no, no, Jesus Christ.
- 46:21Oh dear Lord, no.
