0:00

Listen, McCloud

0:03

was kind of a piece of shit, but

0:06

between us none

0:08

of this would have happened if it wasn't for

0:10

the dead. McCloud got

0:12

in heavy, a lot of

0:14

places, but here too, the

0:17

Ithaca. And so

0:19

McCloud became another

0:21

one of the assets from the family. I'm

0:24

not saying we shouldn't have coffee. I'm

0:26

saying McCloud wasn't killed

0:28

in some random fight.

0:32

McCloud was going after coffee. What's

0:35

the debt from? The

0:38

gambling. Just gambling?

0:41

Yeah, I mean, I get it. Hello.

0:45

Hi. There's an alarm

0:47

behind Audie. Are you okay?

0:50

The alarm is being raised. Meet me in the security

0:52

room. Get

0:56

on the ground and we won't throw another one. The

1:00

thing that I'm going to try and do is

1:02

a, you know, moment

1:04

of sudden rapid

1:07

violence. I'm

1:09

going to save you. Do you have it? Did

1:12

you get it? I

1:14

think McCloud had it. I

1:17

don't know where he put it, but you've got to get it. It's

1:20

dangerous. Orth sent me?

1:23

Orth, you don't have it. You

1:26

got arrested. Oh my God. What's

1:28

to find you? There's a

1:30

whole team. No, don't be scared. They're

1:33

not going to let me out of here unless

1:35

I give it to them. But I don't have

1:37

it. What's it? The card shark.

1:40

You don't know anything. Let's

1:44

start with a recap. Hi. Oh

1:46

wait, Austin. Real quick. Can you tell

1:48

me what your roll 20 hours played is? Yeah,

1:51

I've done that before. Haven't I? It's

1:53

like ridiculous. Not with me. You

1:55

have 5695. Holy crap. Yeah.

1:58

We were, we noticed. During

2:00

of a slow knife recording that me

2:02

art Dre

2:04

and so they all have wildly

2:06

different hours played. Oh, it's an

2:09

open. Yes. That's why dre's is 3000.

2:11

Yeah 20-100

2:15

minus 40 hundred in arts was 700

2:20

20 net in the top right if you're locked in

2:22

it will say member since blank hours played. I'm

2:25

22 80 Wow I'm

2:28

795 Yeah

2:31

closer to reality the 700s Yeah,

2:35

the Jack and I are about the same

2:37

people a little more That's people who are

2:39

diligently closing their web browser. I've closed my

2:41

ship all the time But it's

2:44

not you're in it all the time. Yeah, you're

2:46

in every game and you'd have to prep Right

2:50

I've done prep for stuff too. That's

2:52

a little extra. Yeah. Yeah,

2:54

I'll get you I Wonder

2:58

it counts if you're just like fucking around on

3:00

the roll 20 like I'm really looking at their

3:02

marketplaces that counting You know, I think

3:04

you got to be in a game you better in a game

3:06

window I don't want I don't want to count if I'm like,

3:08

yeah I could

3:10

use yeah, cuz they're not they're never tokens.

3:12

I could use that what we do here

3:16

really, oh Well,

3:18

sometimes you put down like buds and shit.

3:20

We use tokens for a joke right?

3:23

exclusively exactly exactly So

3:26

a little mystery recap before

3:28

we really get into it. What what are y'all

3:31

doing here recap? Okay,

3:33

I'm gonna give the top level of the mystery because

3:35

it's the bit I feel confident about sounds good Jack

3:38

I'm out here writing the chapter headings

3:40

and I'm gonna abandon the responsibility of

3:42

the actual contents of the text to

3:45

others the chime has been hired

3:48

by or scott love to travel to the

3:50

sill a former

3:53

sort of Diplomatic

3:56

neutral zone meeting place turned of

4:00

Pleasure District and Casino to

4:03

clear up a little crisis that

4:06

the CCT is having. Coffee

4:08

Afogato, their person inside the

4:11

sill, has been imprisoned

4:14

by the Ithaca's family as

4:17

a result of, I believe,

4:19

having killed somebody called Cameron

4:22

McCloud. Coffee

4:24

has been arrested for this. The

4:27

chime shows up and

4:30

instead of dealing with

4:32

the complex travel or tourists'

4:34

union to get through

4:37

a gate that opens quickly, develops what

4:39

will become one of their signature strategies

4:41

and just breaks into the place. That's

4:43

right. I think they call

4:45

that a callback. I think

4:47

that's a callback. Yeah

4:50

yeah yeah. We sort of

4:52

walked through a door. Sort of. Aria

4:55

met a fan and it didn't go well.

4:58

Audie intimidated a stack of

5:01

various guards with various success.

5:03

Cass and Mako went

5:06

in and met up with

5:08

a sort

5:10

of bar owner to get

5:12

additional detail on the events.

5:15

That's close but not quite right.

5:18

Cass and Mako met with Hunter

5:21

Cash who was an ex-boxer, a

5:23

kind of like a

5:25

prize fighter who is in debt to

5:28

the Ithaca's family and working as a

5:30

sort of tough for the family. But

5:32

who also has an established relationship

5:35

with Cass. Both of them are

5:37

Epistlesian. Gestured at maybe knew each

5:39

other in the war but maybe I'm misremembering that art.

5:42

We certainly gestured to it. Yeah okay good. Decide

5:45

what you think is true at home. Yeah yeah yeah. You

5:47

have the sympathetic tag. I remember

5:50

it being gestured. They

5:52

don't come back so. Right. Yeah

5:54

they sure do. Aria played casino games

5:58

and then. sort

6:00

of got involved in a fracas at about the same

6:03

time already got involved in a fracas you're skipping I

6:05

think odd he did first already

6:08

broke into the back of the because Oh what

6:10

he went and I spoke with someone

6:13

at Club Steelheart to name you up

6:15

to your heart unit 22 aka to to who told

6:20

them or who gave them access to something but

6:23

you look at them maybe I did

6:26

I have I had like records they

6:28

are all ruminating logs you were that

6:30

that coffee had given to two two

6:32

for safekeeping and these

6:34

these logs were incriminating in what way

6:37

they suggested there's kind of multiple

6:39

levels of it if I recall

6:42

the way that we ended up

6:44

playing that out the partly they

6:46

were emails

6:49

their messages between different

6:52

people including

6:54

coffee and members of the Ithaca family

6:56

and maybe coffee and Cameron it

6:59

looked as if I think one of the things I

7:01

was I was trying to communicate to you also the

7:03

reason that even I'm a little fuzzy on this is

7:05

because of the way techno works as a reminder I

7:08

don't prep a mystery that then we

7:10

unfold we find the mystery together in

7:12

play and I believe that

7:14

what we decided was the log suggested

7:17

that coffee that that

7:19

Cameron McLeod and maybe also other mysterious

7:21

people were trying to purchase

7:23

something from from coffee or

7:26

vice versa this thing that we

7:29

eventually learn is called the card shark AI

7:32

yes and at the same time we

7:34

know that coffee affogato is a sort

7:36

of useless manager spends

7:38

most of their time you know playing

7:41

the tables drinking hanging around and

7:43

is looking to win a sort

7:46

of large jackpot that is about

7:48

to turn over audio and this

7:50

from the very friendly to to

7:53

then breaks into a building setting off a bunch of alarms

7:56

aria also gets into fracas In

7:58

her moment of need? Or do. Deliberately abandons

8:00

her he said. It

8:03

was. Hoping it was

8:05

as he had tickets. He was tactical. Oh

8:07

yes, abandonment can sometimes be deliberately zero

8:10

fucks. ah they'll by the way or

8:12

years now and shale audi of planning

8:14

on being like will. this is the

8:16

way into the jail. You know we've

8:18

got a person inside the jail now

8:20

presumably were coffee I forgot so is

8:23

and as needs be I can state

8:25

of rescue. And ah, that's

8:27

sort of. The absolute

8:29

most recent thing I believe

8:31

was Aria makes me a

8:34

call. Ah or

8:36

know it was. Ah. Tacit:

8:38

make over here. Called him to

8:40

the jail. Who the guards

8:42

looking for? Aria? Yeah! It

8:44

was. It was the the

8:46

guards having my com. Or

8:48

young you were having an open

8:51

conversation about or said gray and

8:53

coffee revealing that the Ai situations

8:55

are here for a copy of

8:58

like do you have it happen

9:00

see I. Felt

9:04

about our coldest holes. That was why

9:06

we had brought us right the middle

9:08

of the palisades. diseases was because there

9:10

hasn't been floor. do you have it

9:13

comes from coffin The the Africa Auto

9:15

Coffee would tell that Ari Ari would

9:17

write it down or did you have?

9:19

There's a lot. There's something to that

9:21

and it would bounce around with her.

9:24

fifty thousand years of us. A fire

9:26

hazard bears a take stock of it.

9:28

Aria saw. This

9:31

isn't he the into a

9:33

mascot with are are many

9:35

many generations and generations later.

9:37

Oh yeah it's sad and

9:39

it's that members like and

9:41

sewing. V I'm. The

9:44

dinosaur chicken nuggets rise out how

9:46

like us as sick as a

9:48

dinosaur actually and side sorts and

9:50

nuggets are actually like over terms

9:52

of a i don't ahead of

9:54

time on free L A the

9:56

five percent messages, internal shots almost

9:58

certainly summer and. The

10:00

idea. Anyway,

10:04

And yeah, and that's where we left off and

10:06

recently. I believe that

10:08

that's true. So as it's a broad

10:10

stressed, the most simple broad strokes of

10:12

the mystery are coffee. i forgot who

10:14

killed someone they were talking about are

10:16

either buying or selling some sort of

10:18

weird are singled out. Sorry, I'm element

10:20

here that you may have missed. which

10:22

is that it became clear that Camryn.

10:25

Also. Was working for the east Coast family.

10:27

To. Retrieve the card shark.

10:30

Or. To get something with that.

10:33

right? Mmmmm. maybe Ems there is

10:35

something that is like forcing people to stay

10:37

in. This is a debt of issues that

10:39

yes they are busy or the data being

10:42

extorted. Yeah that Cameron. Like Hunter I was

10:44

working for the if He Goes family because

10:46

of a great deal debt. Cameron had kind

10:48

of gone on a losing streak is what

10:51

we learned that like haven't had like you

10:53

know, Like a pro

10:55

gambler who is already there. Were mad into

10:57

the sewer rats caressed yeah like you know

10:59

this is three. can talk about this mechanically

11:02

as a Cameron is. In this game made

11:04

in this this transmission I built as a

11:06

threat instead of a I'm and said of

11:08

like a character and so connection Cameron's like

11:10

but you know if things and seeking out

11:12

differently terror and a sort of character you

11:15

might have got into a fight with the

11:17

way that you got into a fight with

11:19

the three Ithaca's kids who while hub various

11:21

colors are blue in the name of right

11:23

yams enough and may recall that you've bought

11:25

a bunch of them and. Dies.

11:28

Of Dwight tying up to have them audi

11:30

to remember that. yeah I really by a

11:32

badly hurt one of them and I made

11:34

up the other two. That's correct, that didn't

11:36

do we do You know the origin of

11:38

the card shark? A I do do ask

11:40

and out we do not we had. have

11:42

you have a fucking clue what's going on

11:45

And we don't know if it's like Ben

11:47

out there being used either. Know with the

11:49

way that the waited with a with a

11:51

coffee is talked about it. it

11:53

sounds like it's ah oui it is

11:55

a singular thing it's one thing it's

11:57

not like in right It's

12:00

not like it's like a type of program.

12:02

It's like it's a unique program. It's a

12:05

one-off thing. Right. Because otherwise, coffee would be

12:07

like, do you have one

12:09

of those? You know what I mean? Or did you get

12:11

a copy of it or something? Right. But coffee asks, Aria,

12:13

do you have it? In

12:16

the most practical sort of mundane making the show

12:18

sense, we also have this cerulean VIP card. Cerulean.

12:20

Yeah. Cerulean. VIP card on the board. And I

12:22

wanted to check in to see whether or not

12:25

that was something that we have moved over in

12:27

the way that plutting is also the case of

12:29

going like, we're just getting that. No. I don't

12:31

think we've moved it over. In fact, this is

12:33

the thing, right? Coffee wanted that VIP card. The

12:36

thing I'm looking at in front of

12:38

me says, Coffee I forgot I wanted

12:40

cerulean VIP card. Cameron McLeod missing cerulean

12:42

VIP card. That gets you to the

12:44

game. That gets you into, what do

12:47

you mean, high stakes game? It gets you, that's

12:49

one of the things it does. It gets you

12:51

a lot of things, right? It gets you into

12:53

different parts of the casino. That VIP card might

12:56

doubly serve as a room key, right? It's like

12:58

your identity here. It might give

13:00

you access to the special

13:03

version of the mesh that exists here, which

13:05

of course we call the holidays. I

13:07

remembered this without having to check my

13:09

notes, thank God. Great. That old Arikon

13:11

branding. That's right.

13:14

Completely. Et cetera,

13:17

right? So yeah,

13:19

Coffee claimed that, I'm looking at just

13:21

that on our map of stuff. Coffee

13:23

claimed he was going to win the

13:25

jackpot. You could kind of

13:27

put together that maybe he was going to get

13:30

access to some sort of high stakes game via

13:32

the cerulean VIP card, and then use the card

13:34

shark to win that jackpot, right? Because this is

13:36

what Aria overheard from the locals, is that Coffee

13:38

kept talking about how he was going to win

13:41

the big one, you know? And

13:43

a possible motive here is that it's like, it's

13:45

two factions men moving against each other, right? It's

13:48

the CCT guy doing one thing and then Cameron

13:50

trying to outplay or counter him and it breaking

13:52

bad. And it does breaking bad. Right,

13:55

totally. Okay, good.

13:58

Where were we? arias

14:00

in jail mako and Cass

14:04

are performing radio crimes crimes against good

14:06

radio Radio, um,

14:09

i'll just note a few other things on this

14:11

board before we jump back in because there's some

14:13

stuff That's like in the air that we haven't

14:15

talked about There is a gang war between the

14:18

Ithaca family and the revenants the revenants are a

14:20

sort of upstart uh gang

14:22

of Episthenesians here inside of

14:24

the sill uh gestured at that they

14:26

were made up largely of young a

14:28

younger generation Um a lot

14:30

of war orphans who maybe don't aren't

14:32

the fathers of the Ithaca family despite

14:34

both being absolutely sin um

14:37

And mako you have a connection to some may go and

14:40

ri you will have connections to people who I don't think

14:42

have shown up in play yet Mako

14:44

you have a connection to someone named grandpa

14:46

heart who you're protective of And

14:48

ri you have a connection to somebody in

14:51

bosky kovac or kovac who you're dependent on

14:53

I don't think boskies come up, but i'm I

14:56

don't think because always we have a connection from

14:58

boskies somewhere else. I I would suspect uh

15:01

grandpa heart runs a um a

15:03

sort of uh A

15:07

campground and kind of trailer park on the

15:09

western end of the sill the northwestern end,

15:11

I guess the open arms campground over here

15:14

um, uh and uh You

15:16

know was was uh previously had some connections

15:19

to to uh, the

15:21

diaspora, I don't know if that's come up but but

15:24

that's true, uh, and then

15:26

Bosky used was the last actual mayor

15:28

of the sill and now it just

15:30

runs up a whiskey bar named kovac

15:33

Which unfortunately for you aria, uh

15:35

does not make deliveries Where

15:37

do we want to kick off? The

15:40

jail sounds like a good place to

15:42

start. Yeah, okay as a reminder if

15:45

I remember how we how described this

15:47

they're like small Hotel

15:49

rooms, but instead of regular walls, they

15:52

have the sort of like plastic

15:54

glass You know magneto

15:57

prison from those x-men movies, you know

16:01

A future jail. A future jail. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Exactly.

16:05

And Aria, you're in one of those. You

16:08

have access to the hotel TV, so

16:10

you can like, you can

16:12

watch e-entertainment news over and over again. If

16:14

you can't decide on what you want to watch, you

16:16

can leave it on the hotel channel and we'll just

16:18

repeat. Mario Lopez talking about

16:20

some sea-lick celebrity you've never heard of.

16:25

I, my hotel watch

16:29

of choice is HGTV, obviously.

16:31

Oh, sure. Yeah. Last time

16:33

it was a hotel watch.

16:36

They had a channel

16:38

on the hotel network that

16:41

was funny moments from Family Feud.

16:43

24-7. They

16:47

had a family-viewed clip show.

16:49

Clip channel. Clip

16:51

show channel. It was so funny. Not

16:55

even full episodes? No, it was

16:57

not. That's bizarre. It was not

16:59

even full episodes. What guy

17:02

who works there was

17:06

responsible for that? Great question. And how

17:08

can we promote them to

17:12

manager of the hotel chain? Yeah.

17:14

Yeah, of all hotels. Anyway.

17:23

Excuse me. Who are

17:25

you calling for here? The guards.

17:29

One of them, I think. That's one of the two guards. It's coffee in

17:31

a separate cell. A separate cell, but you can hear each other.

17:37

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, cool. I think

17:39

the, as you say, excuse me,

17:41

the phone rings. Like you have one of those

17:43

little, you know, like a,

17:46

it's like a rotary phone. Which is

17:49

a rotary phone. It doesn't have the rotary. It has like the buttons, but it's that

17:51

sort of like handheld phone, you know,

17:53

like little old fashioned phone. Does

17:56

it still have a custom ringtone? It does,

17:58

but it does it with. with like

18:00

a buzzing or a bell or something. You know what

18:02

I mean? Sure. It

18:05

plays, I don't believe you're

18:07

Aria Joy, do they? I

18:10

don't believe you're Aria Joy. Have they even thought? Could they? No,

18:12

they have not even thought. Ah, Aria, they probably

18:15

think you're an Aria Joy cosplayer, right? Well, there's

18:17

already been reports of a weirdo going around with

18:19

a person in your Aria Joy. So maybe because

18:21

of that they do, they've set your thing as

18:23

an Aria Joy ringtone and it

18:25

buzzes as you ask for someone to talk to. Hello?

18:29

How was it? Oh my

18:33

god, did I get a custom ringtone? Yeah,

18:36

we give all of our prisoners custom ringtones. What is it?

18:39

That's so nice. I

18:41

get a phone call, right? To

18:43

us. Well, like,

18:45

well, hey. The

18:48

classic... What

18:53

about the classic prison phone call? This

18:55

isn't prison. I

18:59

am locked in here. We'll

19:01

be dealing with you. Are

19:06

you busy right now? She

19:15

can't be beaten. I'm working. I'm

19:19

working right now? Well,

19:23

yeah, but I'm stuck in here. And

19:25

I... Yeah,

19:27

what about that? You know, we

19:30

escaped from jail. We could go

19:32

on a date. She

19:35

hasn't yet developed this technique fully yet.

19:37

It's newly... It's going

19:39

to be really powerful for her. She'll

19:42

find love. Sure

19:45

will. And so

19:48

the reason I'm stuck in here... I'm

19:50

in here to be punished... This is getting

19:52

weird. Sorry. This

19:56

is only as weird as you're making it. No,

19:59

I heard myself... I was like, wait, I'm going to have

20:01

to miss you because you're going to be on a throne. I

20:06

was trying to do this like I'm really guilty. You

20:08

should like, I'm not sent yet. Big

20:11

up. I'm

20:15

really guilty. Let

20:18

me out. If

20:23

you recall, the reason I'm in here

20:25

is because I was on the phone

20:27

with a friend of mine. And the reason

20:30

I was in the phone with a friend of

20:32

mine is... Crimes?

20:40

Because we're... They're

20:49

very sick. And I

20:52

really want to

20:54

get in touch. They

20:57

arrested me. They put you in here because you were on the phone. Yeah.

21:02

Well, that seems like an overreaction to me. Thank

21:04

you. Yeah,

21:07

so what do you want me to send flowers to your friend or are

21:09

they dying or what? Well,

21:11

if I can't... Maybe

21:15

you could get in touch with them. You

21:18

have my... You

21:21

do have my phone and... Do

21:25

you see a contact named Audie?

21:29

I don't have your password. What's your password?

21:35

Don't give him the password. Four...

21:39

Seven. Seven.

21:43

One. Four. Wow!

21:48

Yeah, I can't believe that happened. That's

21:50

it. That's the R-8. Four,

21:52

seven, one. Yeah. I

21:56

can't believe that happened. That's

21:58

it. Wow, if

22:00

you're a fan of the

22:02

show, don't make this your phone. Wow,

22:13

you really like that Aria Joy girl, huh? That's

22:16

me. Cool back, yeah. Cool

22:18

background. Ask

22:20

me anything about Aria Joy. That's

22:23

me. Are you a fan? I

22:26

like some of the songs, but I don't know. No,

22:29

I know. The first time putting out is awful. You

22:33

just said you were Aria Joy. No,

22:35

but I'm a person

22:37

and I write music. And like, let me tell

22:40

you. And you think you're close to Aria

22:42

Joy or is it like you write songs

22:44

for her? You were there, you

22:46

22:49

was at her home where I was

22:52

Aria Joy. For Halloween or

22:54

22:56

cell. Yeah. No,

23:04

bar that I? Kovach.

23:09

Kovach? That's the person's name. Is that the name

23:11

of the bar? Yeah, it's called Kovach. Well,

23:15

the reason, my friend

23:18

isn't really sick, but I'm

23:20

supposed to put on show. Wait, you were lying to me? I

23:23

kind of was, but I'm supposed to put on this

23:25

show. What

23:28

about it? Well, I. You're

23:31

in jail. We arrested you. No, I

23:33

know. I know. I'm not supposed to

23:35

say you're in jail. It's not jail. You're detained. You're

23:38

detained in a suite.

23:40

What if I got like a pass? For

23:44

what? What? For

23:46

detention? Well, can

23:48

I at least, can I at least, can

23:51

I at least call the bar owner and say

23:53

I'm not going to be there? Have

23:56

you been there? It's a really nice place. And

23:58

I don't want to leave this. me a

24:00

coax we're gonna roll something. Well you know

24:02

what, let's just keep going. I know you

24:04

can do this for three hours and see

24:07

where it takes us but as a reminder

24:09

let's take a peek here at your sheet

24:11

I don't remember if you have any you

24:13

don't have any you don't have any hurt

24:16

adjectives do you? I do not.

24:18

I have one charged ice and

24:20

two discharged. Well they all recharge.

24:22

Yep. Okay. Exactly. And then we

24:24

will move where's this hurt

24:27

die go? I guess we'll just back down a hurt

24:29

die pile and then we'll pull this back down. Action dice.

24:31

What is how many action dice do you do you get for

24:33

this? I'm

24:36

opening my character sheet which is in a

24:39

confusing place. I have

24:41

a three in coax. Okay. Yeah it's three. And

24:43

then you can you can of course use

24:46

any push dice you have which you still

24:49

have all your push dice by

24:53

calling on your adjectives or

24:55

equipment or etc. So you

24:57

okay you know

24:59

go for that. I'm

25:02

does that include idle and

25:04

smuggler? No it includes your adjectives

25:06

up top. Okay then I are

25:08

you energetic? Sure.

25:11

I don't think I'm being particularly alluring

25:13

or savvy right now. What why?

25:15

Where's that? Don't be so down on yourself. Alright

25:18

so then yeah pull that that

25:29

over and then pull up your or pull

25:31

it up to the dice rolling

25:34

spot. I'm sure you have three

25:36

dice. 123 go ahead and select

25:38

those and yeah choose random side

25:41

random side closing my eyes. There's

25:44

one six in there. There is a six in there

25:46

is your push die which is really useful actually. What

25:50

adjective do you want to give

25:53

to the security guard? Curious.

25:57

Curious like so so in other words

25:59

27:18

I. Got caught up in the casino. We.

27:21

Had to arrest her. And

27:25

my mother rest is entertained. We

27:27

had to detain her. Oh. Why?

27:31

Were you detained Or. Looks

27:33

as I was on the phone and the

27:35

casino which simply isn't allowed this. Is

27:37

crazy. Why? Are you

27:39

mess up for the show, right? Well

27:43

27:45

or bail than I could put up

27:47

for you. Just.

27:56

Look at. things

27:58

you ah well if you find out

28:00

there is, I can

28:02

28:05

would be great. And I'll pay you

28:07

back. A plus plus plus an encore.

28:10

Plus an encore. That sounds good.

28:13

Blue was hanging

28:15

up. I'm not a Keith, you know? And

28:20

the guard you've been talking

28:22

to says, I'll

28:24

look into that. But I

28:27

also think if you, if you're going to do a

28:29

show, I'm curious.

28:31

Let me get, can I get a ticket?

28:34

I don't know anything going on.

28:37

You know, you've been very nice to

28:39

me while I've been detained. So I'll

28:41

think about it. I'm kidding. You can totally come.

28:44

Okay. Can you invite people?

28:46

Can I invite people? Yeah. Do

28:49

you have more tickets? You seem really nice. I'd love to

28:51

meet your friends. Yeah. Well, I think

28:54

you have to buy a drink. Whiskey's

28:56

for everybody. You're doing

28:58

a show at a little whiskey bar. Yeah, I

29:01

guess. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I'll see who can show

29:03

up. It's going to be really

29:05

cool. Very intimate. Yes.

29:08

Yeah. Yes. Like, like

29:10

broken down. Like, like, broken

29:13

down. Is

29:17

that one of the songs I don't know? Oh,

29:20

well I've been working on it. Do you want to hear it? No. Hmm.

29:25

Oh, you'll hear it later. On

29:28

the phone. This isn't the way I like to listen

29:30

to music. I'm going to look into whether or

29:32

not you can pay your way out of this. All right. Okay.

29:36

You can call me at any time. I'm kind of bored in here.

29:39

I can tell. Click.

29:42

Bye. That

29:45

time was just a click, not a delay.

29:47

That's a difference. That was Vosky's phone. The

29:50

way you can hang it up that's angrier. Oh,

29:55

that's the click. Oh, the click. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And

29:57

then the blue. That's

30:00

the knife hang up you do for

30:02

your friends. Exactly. Exactly. Yeah. Um. Alright,

30:05

rest of you. Oddy,

30:07

Mako, Cass. Yeah. Oh,

30:10

I forgot I was coming back into this. Is

30:13

it usually you were listening? Yeah, I

30:15

was... This is great. Hang it

30:17

out. I was listening to Ally and then comment

30:19

every once in a while on something. Yeah. Yeah.

30:22

This is how it feels on the faction side

30:24

of the game. Uh, then occasionally we do atrocities.

30:26

Ooh, ooh, ooh. Yeah. Oh,

30:29

maybe we can do an atrocity. No. It

30:32

is possible. Well,

30:34

it's again, it feels like if we did an atrocity

30:37

it would have come up. Uh,

30:39

that's true. I know we have been kind to uh...

30:41

Sort of uh... ...to uh... ...uh, her

30:43

uh, continuity here. I could uh... You

30:46

know, I have some thoughts about what I would

30:48

like to do here, but since Oddy is like,

30:51

closer to the situation, I sort of want to

30:53

give room for Mako and Cass. That

30:55

makes sense. Yeah, we got a lot of audio at the end

30:57

of the last episode, so. So yeah, Mako and Cass. You

31:00

were kind of hurried out of the bar

31:02

by Cameron, or

31:04

sorry, by Hunter, um, who was like... Basically

31:07

like, I'm giving you a head start. Like, I...

31:09

They're gonna put together who you are and who...

31:11

...what this whole situation is and I'm going to

31:13

be... You know, I'm gonna

31:15

be kind of forced... You're gonna force my hand if

31:18

you stick around in this bar too long. You know?

31:20

That was a slip because Cameron is Hunter. That's not

31:22

true. Cameron's dead. But

31:26

sure. We've also always had success

31:28

catching Austin out like this before.

31:31

I guess we haven't ever seen... We haven't

31:33

seen Cameron's body, right? Right. That's true. This

31:36

is also another Friends at the Table move.

31:38

If in a murder mystery, avoid going to

31:40

the victim or the scene of the crime

31:42

for as long as possible. Okay,

31:45

so just a quick reminder. We know that

31:47

Ari is in jail. Yeah, you talked

31:50

to her, right? Didn't you talk to her at the very end there?

31:52

Or you tried to... No, we didn't know what happened. Or

31:54

he tried to... They spoke amongst themselves. They spoke amongst

31:56

themselves. He spoke amongst themselves. He spoke to Ari. He

31:58

spoke to Ari. He said. So I

32:00

guess we're going to the casino. You're.

32:03

In the adding a you been in the casino the the

32:05

bar was in the casino. I guess

32:07

we're in the casino

32:09

threat now. What? So

32:11

we are here. Are

32:15

your front of rid of the back room? I

32:17

guess you're searching for Aria? Basically, I wouldn't.

32:19

When you looking to achieve. Well

32:22

I guess I don't want to get arrested. I'm

32:24

so maybe we maybe there's

32:27

a. A.

32:29

Maybe there's like a know I am

32:31

as a concession. There's like a reception.

32:35

There were front desk yeah with a place

32:37

you go we the they get a hold

32:39

themselves so it it's to see know so

32:41

i assume a they use it and people

32:43

show up to be like yeah my. You.

32:46

Know uncle we've not seen anything like that

32:48

always seen as that they have. I mean

32:50

you haven't asked like hey would reduce even

32:53

got a remote. I think someone would have

32:55

my friends being detained by securities to have

32:57

no idea what that process of be like.

32:59

Yeah. I'm says one idea

33:01

animal or we could go illegal

33:04

straight away. and you don't meet

33:06

up with Audi behind closed doors?

33:08

Yeah, If that's if you want to

33:10

do, we should jump to ya being with Audi. Instead

33:13

of like. Doing more sneaking

33:15

around the back room bullshit. You

33:17

know what I mean. You have

33:19

a capacity to be detectives here.

33:21

I mean, I don't want to

33:23

claim that I've like got it

33:26

in hands. Ah, that will be

33:28

hubris, but ah, I'm I'm here.

33:31

Today as a jails a reminder, all your

33:33

little fucked up aren't you? Have

33:35

weakened. Yes, we can get that he M

33:37

P grenade on you with your views of

33:40

the hurt. Die Weekend. But. I've

33:42

written that today is a good

33:44

day of my heart assessment. Terribly

33:46

worried about yes, that opportunity to

33:48

like tissue. The.

33:51

Information about the card shark or

33:53

about the circumstances of the murder

33:55

rape. The. Great.

34:01

I. Am tempted to just say the

34:03

three of us are altogether. The

34:06

i've sort of the i've sort of with

34:08

the on the other. Guy that

34:10

that we should just we should go and

34:12

investigate the scene of the murder, right? If

34:15

I wasn't confident then they wouldn't have. Blown.

34:18

A whole him in the door and

34:20

walked games like that. Oh so. That.

34:23

They might have under control. And

34:25

if they don't, that's their problem, right?

34:28

Yeah. I'm. Ah you go

34:30

to where the place in the hotel is.

34:32

That was where the murder happened. Yeah.

34:36

I would love to do that doesn't

34:38

let us Vs do we do, we

34:40

know the weapon at, like, how many

34:42

of the national we got about a

34:44

we just. Debate. Telling

34:46

the I believe that's all we've

34:49

said. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe the

34:51

six we bring allow or this

34:53

recording wheeze I said Saddam in

34:55

broad daylight or something By remember

34:58

saying that. Know. I also

35:00

don't I also don't remember that. Okay,

35:04

I'm the of the.

35:07

Killing. A happened on a i

35:09

your corner of the hotel that

35:11

was like the the basically the

35:14

like the the cheap the cheap

35:16

seats right the Vikings honey sloths

35:18

and the ah the be are

35:21

cheap good to pass a poker

35:23

of the cheapest you know anti

35:25

is. The ah,

35:27

it's been cleaned up and it's

35:30

reopened. but it's it is pardon

35:32

the pun the it is dead

35:34

in here. Ah no one the

35:36

be a word. Got out that a killing

35:38

happened here. Where. and killings happened

35:40

in the cell but they often happens

35:42

inside of this rule you read on

35:44

upon a machine that someone died at

35:46

this is exactly right you know how

35:48

that it's a little weird people are

35:50

a little a little off ah yeah

35:52

there's a here for people here but

35:54

they seem really out of town they

35:56

seem like people who didn't hear about

35:58

this and ah gender really speaking, it

36:01

seems as if there's a whole

36:03

row of slots that seem like they have been,

36:07

it's a short row maybe, it's like five slot

36:09

machines that are currently

36:11

offline, that are currently

36:13

like out of order. You wouldn't know that

36:15

someone maybe got shot here or stabbed here

36:17

or whatever happened if you

36:20

didn't. I love they're really out of

36:22

town as like an insult. Yeah. They're

36:25

really out of town. They're really out of town. They're

36:27

really out of town as you can be. Bringing

36:30

it back from bluff actually. Classic

36:33

friends of the table diss out of town.

36:38

I bet that there's a way to get

36:40

into the security here. Oh yeah? Well

36:43

you want to try to do? To see some video. Okay.

36:45

I think I want to try to turn on and hack into one of

36:47

these machines, the off-machines. Tell me what

36:49

this is. I assume that that's where

36:52

the thing happens. You're able to do the, tell

36:55

me what this looks like. Give me the description

36:57

and I'll tell you if there's like, if you're

36:59

going to be, get opposed. Because remember

37:01

if you're not being opposed, you can just do a

37:03

thing. Okay. I think that

37:05

I will be opposed. No, sorry. I'll decide if

37:07

the thing is, you're going to be

37:09

opposed. I'm sorry. I'm just guessing that

37:11

you will oppose this. That's just

37:13

a guess that I have. So

37:16

I want to use my head

37:19

jack. I

37:22

want to get into one of these machines.

37:26

How bad, how like gross and psychological

37:29

do you think that they get with

37:31

gambling in the, you

37:34

know. Not so bad here. Okay.

37:37

Because this is not an Oricon casino, right?

37:39

Right, sure. And it's not a Diaspora casino.

37:42

There's no like, secret divine at the heart of

37:44

this thing trying to rip out people's minds. There's

37:46

not a camera behind the screen that's reading facial

37:49

micro-expressions and then giving you small wins when you

37:51

start to seem like bored or upset. No, what

37:53

there is. Well, is that just happening now? I

37:55

don't know if you have that. That's happening now.

37:58

The thing that's definitely happening here is. You

38:00

have an account with the casino. They

38:02

know who your mother is. They

38:04

know if she's sick. Right?

38:07

Uh, they know what other debts you have. They

38:10

know, you know, what your favorite food

38:12

is. They're doing that version of

38:14

pressure. Right? Uh, and, and they know that you

38:16

like, you like to get a big win on

38:18

Thursdays. When you get a big win on Thursdays,

38:21

you end up staying Friday, Saturday, Sunday. You get

38:23

a big win on Tuesdays, you leave. Right.

38:25

It's a personal touch, not an impersonal.

38:28

That's right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's still,

38:30

and it's, and it's data driven, but

38:32

it's data driven that starts at, there's

38:34

a person in a room looking at the

38:36

data. There's a box with a window, like

38:38

a little window. Yeah. And like maybe, maybe

38:41

they, they're moving, they're digitizing currently, you

38:43

know? But yeah, sure. They

38:45

probably are right. There's a holidays, there's

38:48

a virtual holidays room with about

38:50

the, the gambler, but there's

38:53

not a, uh, it's not, again, there's no

38:55

divine at the heart of this casino. Uh,

38:57

you know, Sure. Just

39:00

all the, the bad shit that's

39:02

already Correct. Correct. Correct. Okay.

39:05

Well, then I might, I might have to

39:07

rely on, which we want to call a

39:09

divine. We could, but we're not. So, uh,

39:12

rely on regular old security cameras.

39:14

Yeah. Um, but I still think

39:16

that this is a, this is like a real

39:18

Jack in the situation. I think this is like

39:20

a look through, yeah. So I

39:23

think through the camera's eye kind of. Oh, so

39:25

you're trying to hack the camera. You're trying to

39:27

hack the camera of the, of the slot machine

39:29

or the camera of the room of the room.

39:31

I was going to have a camera of a

39:33

slot machine, but you sort of said that there

39:35

wasn't one, so I'm going to go back to

39:37

normal. Yeah. Yeah. Then then, yeah, this would be

39:39

a post because there is up, there is someone

39:41

running security basically for them here. Right. Um,

39:43

which makes perfect sense to me. Let me make

39:45

sure I have what that is in

39:48

front of me. Not that,

39:51

not that, not that here

39:53

it is. Okay. Um,

39:55

yeah, this

39:58

is going to be like, uh, you're going to go after that. hacked

40:00

basically that makes sense to me. Alright.

40:02

So I have dermalinks so I'm gonna like

40:05

be at a machine sort of appearing

40:07

to be interacting with the machine but

40:09

I'm actually using the skin contact

40:12

to use

40:15

the cerebral input on the head

40:17

jack. That's how that's

40:19

how this is working. Okay I'm gonna say

40:21

it out loud I believe you. Eventually

40:25

this will be that is what push dice I

40:27

will be using. Yeah I get you. Go ahead

40:29

and put that in your dice rolling

40:31

spot. Alright. I've got two left.

40:34

Yeah you've two push dice and

40:36

then your hack is what three or four?

40:38

It's four. Yeah so you're crushing this. So

40:41

I'm gonna use six.

40:48

Cool. So wait what else are you using? What else are you

40:50

using? The two action die. What do you

40:52

mean the two action die? I'm sorry

40:54

the two push die. What are you using your

40:56

dermalink? What's the other push die coming from? Oh

40:59

there's two tags. There's the

41:02

dermalink and then the cerebral

41:04

input. Okay cool so you're

41:06

like moving fast because you're using your brain as

41:08

the input and you're like touching a cable or

41:10

a wall or something to get access to this.

41:13

Yeah. Gotcha. Okay

41:15

cool. Love it. Alright let's pull those up to the

41:17

dice rolling spot. Dice rolling spot. And then

41:19

roll them all. And roll

41:21

them all. And you have no hurt die right now

41:24

right? That's a six dice that keeps rolling now. Correct.

41:27

That's a five. That is a five. You're

41:30

gonna succeed on this. You're

41:32

going against only a four. What

41:34

is the adjective you're trying to apply? That was close

41:36

by the way with six. Uh huh. Yeah

41:39

you would expect a six in there. Yeah kind

41:41

of like statistically that's the thing you would

41:43

expect. Yeah yeah yeah. Okay

41:45

sorry sorry say again. What's the adjective you're trying to

41:47

apply? So I think as you're doing this

41:49

you know this is a classic you're hacking into a thing

41:51

and you're trying to avoid the attention of someone

41:54

who is monitoring all

41:57

incoming transmissions and you know connections

41:59

and stuff. And you're trying to

42:01

remain invisible or whatever. What is the

42:03

thing that you're doing to the security?

42:05

There's like IT security agent I'm

42:13

gonna say Okay

42:18

So this isn't this is an Adjective

42:22

that's going on that security on

42:24

that security agent. Yes, correct. So

42:26

I'm going to say Like

42:33

Clocked maybe like I've like this is oh

42:35

this is like the area that they're operating

42:38

in so that I can avoid them You've

42:40

seen them in other words. Sure. Yeah, you

42:42

know where they are. Okay. Yeah, we make

42:44

a note. Okay, cool Then

42:47

yeah, you're able to kind of again. This is

42:49

a you're not going into the virtual space here,

42:51

right? What's the visualization?

42:54

I'm guessing right? You're not you're not

42:56

you're not fogging this machine you're doing

42:59

But you are doing your don't know that is

43:01

a story that is the cerebral input. That's what

43:04

the okay I didn't so that what's this look

43:06

like? What's the because of the first time you've

43:08

done this particular version of this last time you

43:10

like busted out a little hand hacking computer? Though

43:14

this is the first time then you are in

43:16

the holidays. You've never been in this thing, right?

43:18

I'm now holidays in your hot your holidays in

43:21

Exactly. Um, I think it's

43:23

a little sickly like I think that the

43:25

first thing that is there's a smell There's

43:27

like a there's like a saccharine smell here

43:30

that's being pumped into the virtual

43:32

space that you're in We

43:34

start there instead of starting out like

43:36

a visual difference, right? And

43:38

then visually I think everything is like You

43:42

know It's

43:44

like there's not enough outlines on things. Everything's

43:46

fuzzy and blurry It's like

43:48

the world's normally are here are made of

43:51

are made of like hard solid

43:53

lines and Are often outlined

43:55

in heavy black lines and here everything's

43:58

fuzzy. It's almost dashes instead of being

44:00

made of solids, it's almost like you're

44:02

floating around, you know, gold

44:05

and neon pink and

44:08

yellow and turquoise.

44:10

And it's a little, it's

44:12

a little gosh, gosh, it's

44:14

a little much, you know.

44:17

But yes, you can immediately see

44:20

there is the security agent is

44:23

like literally floating above and

44:25

like hovering over different parts

44:28

of the sort of replication

44:30

of the interior of the Cerulean. It's

44:32

almost like a layered, you know, people

44:34

talk about 4D chess. This

44:37

is like 4D Pac-Man. And

44:39

you're at a lower level of Pac-Man

44:41

than a higher level of the Pac-Man

44:43

game, you know. But you can see

44:45

the enemy ghost, you

44:47

know, floating around looking for you.

44:50

Right. And you're able to keep a low profile as you

44:53

move through this space. What are you

44:55

trying to retrieve? What are you trying to see through this

44:57

camera? You know, you're downloading the camera logs as you're doing

44:59

this. What is it you're trying to learn? I

45:03

think I'm like looking,

45:06

I'm like

45:09

swiping past like a series

45:11

of televisions that

45:13

each have like a thumbnail that are

45:15

representing like a chunk of time. And

45:18

I'm going back and back and back and I'm like,

45:21

I want to see when these machines

45:24

were on. And that's how I know,

45:26

okay, it's like between when they're on and the next

45:28

one that they're off. Right. That's what that's the chunk

45:30

of time that I'm looking for. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're

45:33

able to go back. You see that. But

45:35

what is it that you're trying to you have

45:37

that are you just trying to see the records

45:39

of like what the camera shows basically? Yeah, yeah,

45:42

yeah. See this the shot of the murder basically.

45:44

Yeah. You

45:46

see Cameron

45:48

and and

45:51

coffee as you see Cameron at

45:54

one of these slot machines and

45:58

they are they are pulling the slot machine. handle

46:00

and like looking over their shoulder and pulling the slot

46:02

machine handle and looking over their shoulder your

46:05

intuition is they don't care about winning

46:07

here you're

46:09

not sure at first what's going on

46:11

you're gonna have to get a closer

46:13

look and

46:15

then you see in the distance you

46:17

know coffee starts coming this way running

46:19

past people pushing past people runs past

46:22

you know some sort of food server

46:24

or drink server and like drinks go

46:26

everywhere Cameron doesn't

46:28

seem to see what's going on and

46:31

you're gonna have to like you're gonna have to

46:33

actually engage with an either

46:35

a different camera or something else to

46:37

see if there's any

46:40

other particular detail as to what

46:42

Cameron's doing but coffee

46:44

gets there there's a brief back and

46:46

forth there's a there's a frockess and

46:49

then it looks

46:51

like coffee reaches for something you're not sure

46:54

what and then there is

46:56

a tussle with an

46:58

item between their hands and

47:00

then the item turns out to be a gun

47:02

and Cameron gets shot in the chest

47:04

and falls over and coffee

47:06

drops it actually coffee drops

47:08

to a knee as if as if looking

47:11

for something you can't seem to

47:13

find it everyone is freaking out in

47:15

the in this part of the of the

47:17

casino security runs in coffee

47:20

stands up can't find it can't find

47:22

it sees

47:24

the the the

47:26

I'm gonna give you this does a

47:29

little back kick as

47:31

if to kick the kick

47:33

something underneath one of

47:35

the nearby flop machines but

47:39

there may have been something else going on there too

47:43

Cass

47:45

as the two of you were over here and

47:48

as Mako is is hacking into

47:50

this thing you see like a

47:53

pair of security guards begin

47:55

working you're working their way

47:57

over towards you They

48:00

are very clearly trying

48:02

to clear the space out. They

48:05

aren't trying to, they're threatening you. They're

48:07

trying to intimidate you by presence. It's

48:11

clear that they don't want you to be here

48:13

and they're trying to frighten you. I'm actually gonna

48:15

roll against you here. What

48:18

is your, what's the role

48:20

to intimidate? I'm guessing it's Cokes. And

48:22

what would you be countering an intimidation with? It would

48:24

probably also be Cokes? What

48:26

do you think? Trying

48:30

to give someone the shakedown Cokes versus Cokes says

48:33

this cheat sheet. This is sort of

48:35

a shakedown, right? Yeah, it's

48:37

shakedown at Jason. All right, what is

48:39

your, what is your Cokes?

48:43

Two. Ooh, okay. So

48:46

these two big, they're big. I

48:48

think sometimes we think about Cass as

48:50

being a little slight and not small.

48:54

Cass was a soldier, but Cass is

48:56

not a big burly person.

48:58

Yeah, not that kind of soldier. Not that

49:00

kind of soldier, exactly. These

49:02

folks were, they have big

49:05

wide shoulders, real

49:09

brick house bodies, and

49:12

they are using the adjective, I'm

49:14

just gonna use this one person stats instead of trying

49:16

to, it's not multiple people rolling against

49:18

you. That would be weird. They

49:21

have a, I guess it's actually, would this

49:23

be their Cokes or their fight? Oh, they're

49:25

the same, that's useful. So they're gonna use

49:27

three action dice and then

49:29

they are using the

49:32

tough adjective. So

49:36

we're gonna roll four dice against your two random

49:39

side. There is a three. And

49:43

I'm gonna give, yeah, it does be two. Do

49:46

you have some unspent dice?

49:51

You could try to count, you could try to boost

49:54

your thing, right? But I guess it only boosts

49:56

by .1, doesn't it? It

49:58

doesn't boost by a whole one. to counter

50:02

Yeah, double checking that that's right

50:04

the terminal reaction established vector verb

50:06

rating and push dice I thought

50:08

I thought it counts as one unless it's tied and then

50:10

it counts as point one double

50:12

check So you also

50:15

have accesses. All right, here we go resolve the

50:17

role the terminal reaction Yeah,

50:19

you could you could you could discharge a

50:21

push dice to increase your reaction rating by

50:23

one if you'd like to Or

50:25

you could let me stick this on you and

50:28

then get an extra push dice No,

50:30

I think it's worth not being intimidated right now.

50:32

That's that's probably fair So

50:34

yeah, go ahead and drag it over. What are you

50:36

using to resist that way? I Mean,

50:39

I would say just looking at additives. I

50:41

think being authoritative is sort of a natural

50:43

resistance to being intimidated Yeah,

50:46

yeah, that makes sense Then

50:48

as a minor Prince you've been around

50:51

plenty of bodyguards. Oh for sure many

50:53

bodyguards many tufts many Many

50:55

such such people as this that

50:57

makes perfect sense to me So

50:59

then yeah, if your actions are always equal or less.

51:01

Oh wait, you need to do too The

51:05

result including to do is equal to

51:07

or less than No,

51:10

you're right if you if it's equal equal goes to

51:12

the defender, right? So Yeah,

51:15

you successfully defend this and I think that

51:17

the the heavy that is like taking the

51:19

front is like We

51:23

would love it if you would you

51:25

and your friend would Vacate the

51:27

premises and return to the

51:29

rest of the hotel Yeah

51:32

in a minute All

51:38

right, we'll be right here if you have any

51:40

questions and they seem a little like Confused

51:43

as to why that didn't work the

51:45

the the backup heavy looks at the

51:48

primary heavy almost in a judgmental way

51:50

as if to say like Damn,

51:52

you didn't you didn't do it. Let me you know,

51:54

maybe I should try But

51:57

doesn't doesn't sell the the primary person is

51:59

like no, no No, just give them some

52:01

time. Mako,

52:04

you now know that there's something over near the

52:07

one particular slot machine, but you're also now being

52:10

physically hounded by these two people,

52:12

and then digitally also followed at

52:14

this point. And you

52:16

know, there may even be more to learn if

52:19

you could figure out a different vector to see what

52:21

else was going on near that slot machine. I

52:24

wanna do that, I wanna figure out more. Okay,

52:27

if you keep doing this, you're gonna come

52:29

under threat also directly. Just wanna float that

52:31

just so you know. What happens with the,

52:33

when do the discharge dice go back to

52:35

being charged? When you do another roll. Okay.

52:38

So right now. So right now, so beautiful,

52:41

I am gonna do that. I'm not gonna push, I'm

52:43

just gonna roll my four. You're just gonna roll your

52:45

four. So you're staying hacked in. We

52:48

don't need to reestablish a vector here. You're just, what is

52:50

the, or we do have to reestablish our vector, but you

52:52

don't have to reestablish like you're using those things. Because

52:54

that's how you started it. But what is the, how

52:56

are you getting another like view on

52:59

this, whatever was happening at the

53:01

slot machine? Can

53:06

I use my 40 Pac-Man view

53:09

to like access a

53:11

different camera, so like a closer camera, or

53:13

is there like, maybe

53:15

there's something that has audio? Would the audio

53:17

make sense? Yeah, yeah, yeah, let's do audio.

53:20

Let's say that you picked up, like

53:22

maybe the slot machine do have like audio mics to

53:27

pick up when people are going. This is how you

53:29

learn who people's grandmas are. Exactly, you listen to them.

53:32

Pit bosses listening to room mics. Exactly, yeah, all right,

53:34

give me four. I

53:36

don't know what a pit boss is. Yeah, you

53:38

do. They

53:40

walk around and they intimidate, but

53:42

also they sit in the back room and watch you. Yeah. I

53:45

think, okay, all right. All right, roll them.

53:48

All right, that's a five. That's a five, you're good. Wait,

53:52

did I, yeah, did you need a, no, no, no, five

53:54

is right, five is right. They had a four before, I

53:56

did not check. Yeah,

53:58

they were four. All right. So what

54:00

do you, what, they were already, you

54:02

had clocked them, what are you giving

54:04

them now? The same

54:06

person who is pac-manning around above you. Can

54:13

I say Miss

54:15

Led? Sure, what's that look like? I've

54:18

like led, I've just like,

54:21

you know, opening and closing doors, like

54:23

making it look like, you

54:26

know, in the Scooby-Doo cartoon, you know,

54:28

you're like closing, you're closing a

54:30

door when you turn a corner to make it look like

54:33

you've gone in there but you keep going straight. So most

54:35

of them like that to like make them think that they're

54:37

on the right trail but I've sent them astray.

54:41

Cool. When you get the audio

54:43

feed here, you get,

54:47

let's say that you kind of hear it in

54:49

reverse first and you pick up

54:51

a few things. The

54:53

first thing that you pick up going backwards is coffee

54:57

asking about the card shark and also

54:59

about just the card, the card, the

55:02

card, which maybe is the VIP card.

55:05

Where is it? Where is it? Where is it? And

55:08

you're like buttoning back, it's almost like you're playing like

55:10

her story or something and you're like, you have five

55:12

second clips that you can listen to and you're going

55:14

from the end of the fight backwards

55:16

up to the top. Right. At

55:18

one point he brings an acoustic guitar and starts singing

55:21

like a song that's kind of a weird spoiler. Is

55:23

it kind of like a song backwards too? Is it

55:25

a song about? Yes, about

55:27

killing people and it starts out and I

55:29

did it, I killed them, I killed them.

55:31

No, the segments are forward. It's just that

55:34

they're laid out five seconds at a time

55:36

from the end back. It's

55:39

not backwards, you're listening to the record

55:41

backwards and hearing Satan's true name. The

55:47

argument seems to be about the card shark

55:50

and the VIP card. Where is

55:52

it? It's in your room, isn't

55:54

it? You have the thing, I need it. Give me

55:56

the card, give me the card, etc. during

56:00

the for coffee got there.

56:03

You can hear Cameron being

56:05

like come on Upload Faster

56:07

Upload Faster And. The you.

56:09

Get the impression when overlaying this

56:11

with the video that every time

56:14

they've set up some sort of

56:16

system, every time they pull the

56:18

lever on the arm on the

56:20

slot machine, they're applauding more and

56:22

more of a file someone you're

56:25

not sure where. Are

56:27

or what. You'd have to go look at

56:30

the machine and have dramatically did that machine

56:32

to figure it out. However from as you

56:34

just continue, what's the volume? the outside looking

56:36

in? What are you what does make what

56:38

is make goad doing in the real world?

56:41

In the physical world I guess I should

56:43

say. Ah, I I

56:45

think it looks are are a lot

56:47

like I'm. Of

56:49

Cameron. You

56:52

know I have mode and a file.

56:54

I'm just like I'd look sort of

56:56

like maybe not a frantic but just

56:58

sort of looking like I'm playing. I'm

57:00

a my zoned out playing slots but

57:02

your hold but your your head is

57:04

on the wall or something not on

57:06

where the slot machines. You describe you

57:08

know it's on the machine or you will do everything

57:10

selection into the machine. Okay I thought that you're near

57:12

the cameras and not near the machine. Or

57:15

ah, I got, I got. I.

57:18

Read: are you now. In.

57:20

One way. none of this makes sense of

57:22

because I don't have to take what was

57:24

said to frame way I do. I'm I'm

57:26

I'm asking the cameras through the network but

57:28

I got into the net. What are you

57:30

them said the machine At this point one

57:32

of these these guards moves to just pull

57:34

you away Tassie little less some touch may

57:36

go or or or or my rolling of

57:38

castle my rolling as make up. Your.

57:41

Audience Cast: as I thought this is

57:44

like. Hope.

57:46

On a hot streak. There's

57:49

a beer or whatever you the future version of

57:51

out loud voice your it's homeboy, not a hot

57:53

streak. But. ah

57:56

i see reasonable son casinos i think

57:59

i said a lot of time. Well, I

58:01

haven't really been to casino in a long

58:03

time, but I used to. But you used

58:05

to. Yeah, so this is the bigger of

58:07

the two. This is the one who was

58:09

making fun

58:11

of the other one. And

58:15

this is, that's almost

58:17

tough. This is strong. I'm going

58:20

to burn one of these. You know

58:22

what? This is strong. And let me burn my other, one of my

58:25

other ones. This is strong

58:27

and cyber arms I'm using.

58:30

So like you try to get in the way, Cass.

58:33

Yeah. And they are going to try to like

58:35

twist your arm back and pick you away or

58:37

like shove you away into one of these things.

58:40

What is your fight? Two.

58:43

All right. The general problem with Cass and

58:45

the system. Right. Was it all the stats

58:47

or just kind of bad? Right, right.

58:51

Let's random sign it and see what we get. Oh

58:55

yeah. Cass didn't have like one

58:57

real stand out, huh? Yeah. Cass

59:00

is a, what's the word? Oh,

59:02

you can tie it. A seven

59:04

of all trades. Cass

59:07

could not tie this. Cass doesn't have no. Cass

59:09

is a two in fight, right? Right,

59:11

but three dice. Three dice. No,

59:13

two dice. Oh, because you haven't rolled so

59:15

that doesn't get recharged. Correct. No, but I'm

59:18

ready for a roll here. But Cass is,

59:20

what do you mean you're ready for a

59:22

roll? Give

59:25

me whatever you're going to give me and then I'm going

59:27

to do what I'm going to do. I see. Okay. I'm

59:29

going to, I'm going to sticky one of these, which

59:32

as a reminder, sticky, sticky means

59:35

that it, it lasts until you

59:37

can get healing. Remember, as we've talked

59:39

about this before, I

59:41

believe that that's correct. It is not,

59:44

it is. Oh no, I'm sorry. That is,

59:46

yeah, negative can be mended. You could mend

59:48

it, but it's not all the way

59:50

to like permanent, which would be locked. So I'm going

59:52

to give you one of these die. I'm

59:55

going to give you a broken arm.

1:00:00

Alright, it breaks your arm just turns you

1:00:02

around snaps your arm and pushes you away

1:00:06

Cool, I use my other arm to shoot him My

1:00:10

god but an apostolacian

1:00:12

scion pulling a gun inside

1:00:14

the Cerulean at

1:00:16

this at this time at this

1:00:18

juncture at this juncture now

1:00:21

look I Love

1:00:24

the apostolacian the bus Alright,

1:00:27

let's what's your shoe? It's

1:00:30

a two. All right. I don't know that this

1:00:32

is like a you know Try

1:00:35

shooting someone in the open shoot versus move is

1:00:37

what it says. I guess that's

1:00:39

probably right I don't

1:00:41

think it's gonna go great for this person go

1:00:44

ahead and and un-discharge your your hurt

1:00:46

or your push dice And

1:00:48

what do you haven't you've a two and shoot? Yeah,

1:00:51

all right. What do you what are your bonuses or if

1:00:53

you're using any? What

1:00:55

push dice are you adding to this this to? You

1:01:02

I'll take a push on

1:01:04

this for Your

1:01:06

allowed into powerful my loud and powerful

1:01:09

guns Also,

1:01:11

I don't know this is really part of it,

1:01:13

but I think I got a great element of

1:01:16

surprise here I think so. I don't think this

1:01:18

guy's don't expect to get shot right early not

1:01:20

expecting it But again,

1:01:22

you'd have to spend a push die on that.

1:01:24

Maybe that's uh Was

1:01:27

sorry that was maybe that's like attentive You

1:01:30

know Using it.

1:01:32

Yeah, it was ready to shoot. Yeah, you're gonna spread the

1:01:34

second We're just you're just gonna roll the three that you

1:01:36

got the two action. I said one push die um

1:01:42

How much move can this tough really

1:01:44

have question I bet one It's

1:01:48

all look at me I can beat a I

1:01:51

can beat a one I give

1:01:53

you probably gonna beat a three

1:01:55

I'll find out it's hard to not

1:01:57

be the one for you're shooting the one who broke

1:01:59

your arm Right the tougher the oh

1:02:01

sure yeah, yeah, yeah Okay,

1:02:05

um this is a pretty bad idea.

1:02:07

I don't have the stats to do you have the

1:02:09

push dice And I

1:02:11

guess yeah, I Think

1:02:13

and I think you know this goes to

1:02:15

court. I think you're fine by the way Alright

1:02:20

so random so you're not you're not pushing more you're

1:02:22

pushing once you're adding one push die You have three

1:02:24

other push die you're gonna save those for defense presumably

1:02:28

Yeah, I think I need three to defend against almost

1:02:30

anything. I gotcha. I see what you're saying. Yeah Again,

1:02:33

Cass was poorly built now. We know alright

1:02:35

roll these dice and we I guess we

1:02:37

fixed it With the change

1:02:40

systems Hey, that's a

1:02:42

five. That's a five one push dice.

1:02:44

That's not enough to get this three move up to

1:02:46

a five Three are

1:02:48

you are you what are you what's the adjective you're

1:02:50

giving me are you gonna upgrade it to sticky? Yeah,

1:02:54

I'm gonna upgrade to sticky so Trade

1:02:57

and die you have a system. What's

1:03:00

why did I just want a one-up

1:03:02

broken arm? Punctured

1:03:07

torso sure is fine Bleeding

1:03:12

internal what was the classic one Mako?

1:03:15

perfect Perforated

1:03:18

yeah, I think I don't remember what we'd

1:03:20

establish about this gun, but I don't think

1:03:22

it's an automatic So I don't think perforated

1:03:24

is right. It's a single. I I

1:03:26

just I hate to that's how

1:03:29

what a Barker is No barkers like a

1:03:31

big hand cannon right? Oh, what's up? What

1:03:33

don't you want to do? So I mean

1:03:35

I have two questions The

1:03:37

one question is about framing. I'm so curious

1:03:39

about whether Cass took this action because

1:03:42

they saw it as a tactical

1:03:44

maneuver or if if

1:03:47

this is um if this

1:03:49

is like Like like like

1:03:51

a shock and they are reactive to having

1:03:53

their arm broken. Yeah. Yes Is

1:03:55

it reflective because I feel like Cassis is while

1:03:59

they might be poorly built in the system an

1:04:02

interesting enough character that you could cut it

1:04:04

both ways depending on the time that this

1:04:06

is taking place, right? I

1:04:08

think of this as you know

1:04:10

because we sort of move from This

1:04:13

cast to a more tactical cast as the game

1:04:16

goes on and I say as the game goes

1:04:18

on what I really mean is abruptly in the

1:04:20

middle, but to sort of

1:04:22

like back weave that in This

1:04:25

is cast This is the moment the cast realize

1:04:28

that they need to think they gotta start prying

1:04:30

hands together This is they had a part of

1:04:32

me play it together because their arms broken and

1:04:34

shot a guy in the chest Second

1:04:38

point and I hate to be the person reminding

1:04:40

the teacher that we have homework But the tags

1:04:42

on this gun are loud and powerful. Sure. Just

1:04:44

just oh, this is okay No,

1:04:48

and and you know make

1:04:50

it what's confusing for you Cuz

1:04:52

you saw this happen It

1:04:55

just happens. It's like a repeat of

1:04:57

the Cameron and coffee fight. Oh, I'm watching live

1:04:59

TV It's like you're watching live TV later on

1:05:01

top of an archive

1:05:04

of the same performance. Do you know

1:05:06

what I mean? It's like you're watching

1:05:08

Cass lip-sync coffee shooting someone right here,

1:05:11

right? Like literally got it here It's this is

1:05:13

the spot. This is where was yeah, there was

1:05:15

a there was a there was a little hand

1:05:17

to hand And then a gun came out and

1:05:19

someone got shot. This is like

1:05:22

it's like Tesseract layered

1:05:24

Television and right the

1:05:26

reality It's

1:05:28

not just rhymes. It's it's the

1:05:30

same words Someone

1:05:34

got shot in the casino someone got shot

1:05:36

I Hope

1:05:44

that you take this opportunity which I'm sure

1:05:46

gonna be a big distraction to look at

1:05:48

whatever got kicked under the slot

1:05:52

machine or I've been uh,

1:05:54

I Had

1:05:56

I had to I had to toss and turn I I

1:05:58

did a quick night's sleep just

1:06:01

now, tossing and turning. Good

1:06:03

morning. Can I wasn't sure about this.

1:06:05

Did we not roll hurt dice for that? Oh,

1:06:08

Keith, thank you. We

1:06:10

did not roll hurt dice for that. I

1:06:13

was really like that. That is sick. I really just wanted

1:06:15

to find, because you hit on a five. Six doesn't cancel

1:06:17

out the five. You're good. It's

1:06:20

not greater than. It's not greater than. Talk about-

1:06:22

It has to actually hit. I hated doing that. Talk

1:06:26

about the future delivery of homework. Well, yeah. Well, that's what I thought

1:06:28

Jack was going to say was what about the hurt dice. But

1:06:31

then, you know,

1:06:33

arts, your impassioned

1:06:35

speech about having to learn to

1:06:38

make plans. I was like, well,

1:06:40

maybe Cass deserves to fail. That's

1:06:44

what comes out of this. Yeah. No.

1:06:47

I think the broken arm is failure enough. Thank you very much. I

1:06:50

actually think, I don't know that the game works

1:06:52

this way, but I'm doing it anyway. That gun

1:06:54

is loud and this was a tight space. I

1:06:56

think all of the characters here have stunned as

1:06:59

a non-sticky hurt die

1:07:02

right now, including the NPCs, including

1:07:04

the out-of-towners down the way who

1:07:07

are just playing the slots. So

1:07:10

I'm just giving everybody, including you, and you're

1:07:14

double stunned. You're not actually double stunned. You're a

1:07:16

single stunned. But part of your stunning Mako is

1:07:18

just it's loud and you saw

1:07:20

it twice. The rhyming thing happened. It's

1:07:24

vibrating your head. Surely I pulled the trigger. I knew it

1:07:26

was going to be like this. What

1:07:29

did you do? Do you have like fiber

1:07:31

ears that you could mute? You

1:07:34

might. No, they know how loud the one gun is. I braced

1:07:36

my ears. You braced your ears. I

1:07:38

braced your ears. I see. No, you took...

1:07:41

That's why they say braced your ears. I'm

1:07:44

going to be done for a brief moment here. Mako,

1:07:48

are you digging around at the bottom of

1:07:50

this thing to try to find whatever got kicked under? Oh,

1:07:53

yeah. All right. So I want to

1:07:55

know that you have the Cerulean VIP card that says

1:07:57

Cameron McCloud on it. And

1:08:00

you spot hanging between two

1:08:02

of the slot machines a

1:08:06

data cord, you know? I'm

1:08:09

picturing this like the internal sort of, the

1:08:12

sort of like data cables on a PC, you know

1:08:14

what I'm talking about? Long,

1:08:17

flat. Like a SATA cable. Like a

1:08:19

SATA cable, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. So

1:08:22

there's a, is there still a hard drive there?

1:08:24

There's not, it looks like it was ripped. Looks

1:08:26

like whatever that was hooked into was ripped away.

1:08:30

There's like a loose screw or something.

1:08:32

So it's like there was something being

1:08:34

uploaded here. There's something plugged into the

1:08:36

network here that was being manually uploaded

1:08:38

one pull of the slot machine at

1:08:40

a time. It's

1:08:42

just if they, you know, the thing that happens

1:08:44

is these slot machines record data every,

1:08:47

between every pull of the handle. And

1:08:50

every time that they, you pull it,

1:08:52

it uploads the data to the network.

1:08:54

And so they were using that as

1:08:56

a mechanism to upload something from here

1:08:58

to somewhere else. And

1:09:01

you're able to do all that because you are

1:09:03

a hacker. Because you have the hacker background twice.

1:09:06

I'm gonna respect that. You don't have to roll for shit. I

1:09:09

guess you have the engineer background twice, whatever it

1:09:11

is. Engineer, engineer, criminal. Yeah, absolutely, yeah. So you

1:09:13

totally, like, oh, I see what they were doing

1:09:15

here. Nice. But

1:09:18

let me tell you, the other less

1:09:20

tough, tough, is not

1:09:22

reacting well to their friend being shot

1:09:24

in the chest. Okay,

1:09:27

gotta move. Yeah, you were

1:09:29

being, I think Cass is, they

1:09:31

are diving at Cass to try to tackle you,

1:09:33

Cass. Yeah. Which, let's

1:09:35

pull this up. They

1:09:37

are using, hold on a second, let

1:09:40

me make sure. They don't have

1:09:42

the same stuff. And

1:09:50

they have a heart die now because they

1:09:52

are stunned. So they have three

1:09:54

in fight and they

1:09:56

have, what can I use,

1:09:58

what can I use? I guess I said

1:10:00

before they had tough the other one had

1:10:02

strongly a tough so they're gonna use tough

1:10:06

Don't use another one of these die. Let me see

1:10:09

This one. I'm so glad one of my adjectives

1:10:11

is not tackled Good

1:10:15

one to use Safe

1:10:18

adjectives safe. Oh, you know, they have They

1:10:22

are reflexed emulence. And

1:10:24

so they're quick enough to get in on you or they're

1:10:26

good. That's what their hope is They're using

1:10:28

to a better because otherwise they're gonna get

1:10:31

shot All

1:10:33

right, and what do you what

1:10:35

do you this is probably move also right or

1:10:37

are you what are you doing? You're just gonna

1:10:39

probably move. I mean, yes, it

1:10:42

could be shoot But

1:10:44

you wouldn't give them a you wouldn't give them an adjective.

1:10:46

That's not how the system works. So yeah

1:10:48

Yeah, it's to unless it's unless it's uh,

1:10:50

I Guess my move

1:10:52

is worse than my shoot. So I Fight

1:10:55

is your fight better or worse than your move My

1:10:58

fight is better than my let's go with your fight then this is

1:11:00

someone trying to dive and tackle you What is your fight? To

1:11:03

all right. Are you sure it's not an operating?

1:11:06

I'm certain it's not Aren't

1:11:08

we all really just wait did those

1:11:11

actually change? Wait,

1:11:17

the the red one definitely changed did you change all

1:11:19

of it and it says in the sheet on the

1:11:21

Chats they all change where it doesn't look like they

1:11:23

did They just rolled

1:11:25

the main could you be in an outrageous?

1:11:27

Holy shit. I did what

1:11:31

Look art you rolled

1:11:33

a two on this one

1:11:36

on the higher push dice Then

1:11:38

a five and a one on

1:11:41

a one and then so these three

1:11:43

just didn't change. Yeah, they rolled the uh-huh

1:11:47

Wow, what are the fucking odds? I guess

1:11:49

something like Forty six thousand

1:11:51

to one. Okay. Thanks. Thanks make

1:11:53

no, isn't it 36 times six

1:11:56

wouldn't it be? six times each

1:11:58

of the dice or six times six or

1:12:00

six to the sixth power no

1:12:03

I think it's six cubed yeah I'm not

1:12:05

sure the three doesn't cancel anything out the

1:12:07

five is the high die here are you

1:12:12

going to discharge any dice to defend

1:12:14

this they're

1:12:17

gonna try to give you the they're

1:12:20

they're gonna try to give you the sticky

1:12:23

adjective they're going to

1:12:27

try to do the sticky adjective

1:12:29

concussed they're just gonna slam you against

1:12:32

the the opposite row of of

1:12:35

slot machines well

1:12:37

and I can just discharge these three

1:12:39

dice and we've tell me what you're

1:12:41

using to when you discharge those three

1:12:43

dice what adjectives or or equipment you're

1:12:45

using to boost your money okay and

1:12:48

you're gun hasn't it you three is what you

1:12:51

have right now right yes

1:12:53

well again attentive sure I

1:12:56

saw it coming it one

1:13:00

let

1:13:03

me come back to how much I want to

1:13:05

try to argue for intuitive yeah I don't know

1:13:07

that um

1:13:20

you need one more why

1:13:24

I need

1:13:26

I'm of the gun

1:13:28

yeah yeah try to avoid the

1:13:30

gun sure is a mitigating

1:13:33

factor in attack yeah sure I don't want to line

1:13:35

that I go into the gun that's not a good

1:13:37

shot so go ahead discharge one more and

1:13:40

yeah you're able to slip away they can't get

1:13:42

the angle on you exactly so hold

1:13:45

on I need I need one more but no you

1:13:47

need to get to five right ties go to the

1:13:49

defender yeah my oh

1:13:51

your mind is trying to not three

1:13:53

it's two yikes to okay well then

1:13:55

you're gonna need one more I think

1:13:58

it's intuitive I

1:14:00

think we started a fight that couldn't be intuitive.

1:14:03

Okay, so it's

1:14:06

the two fights plus... What

1:14:09

about authoritative? Wouldn't it be weird if

1:14:11

you were trying to like tackle Prince

1:14:13

Harry in the casino?

1:14:16

Wouldn't you be like, they recognize

1:14:19

you? They recognize you? Wait, I

1:14:21

can't. You're a sander. No,

1:14:24

no, they just shot at them. I think

1:14:27

they're shooting first. I agree. I do agree.

1:14:31

I would hear the argument for authoritative if you

1:14:33

had like gotten into a fracas with them, but

1:14:35

you shot one of them. You shot one in

1:14:37

the chest. What's

1:14:39

more authoritative than shooting someone? That's

1:14:42

the American way. We're

1:14:44

not in America. But I'm

1:14:46

in America. Right, no, I understand. So

1:14:49

the problem is that you just need one more

1:14:51

and you don't have... You die, but you have

1:14:54

no justification. What are the two dikes you have

1:14:56

right now? The test cases have been fantastic. I'm

1:14:58

being railroaded here. Hold on,

1:15:00

hold on. See, you've

1:15:03

got three action

1:15:05

dice, but you should only have two, right? Push dice, push dice.

1:15:08

Right, but there's three action dice. Those are mine. It's

1:15:10

my role, Keith. Oh, this is your

1:15:12

role. Yeah, it's hard to defend from a two

1:15:15

up to a five. Right,

1:15:17

and using attentive and

1:15:20

using the gun, which I'll give

1:15:22

you the gun, and then the

1:15:24

remaining adjectives here are intuitive and

1:15:28

authoritative. Well, I mean,

1:15:30

I could do it. Instead of using the gun, use

1:15:34

loud and powerful. Fire the gun again into

1:15:37

the air. But that's not what was actually

1:15:39

happening, right? Art

1:15:41

was not resisting

1:15:43

with shoot, Art was resisting with move. Or

1:15:47

with fight, which is your strongest thing,

1:15:49

right? I feel like

1:15:51

you could fire the gun into the

1:15:53

air and then punch someone. And the

1:15:56

thing about this is this person's already

1:15:58

stunned by the loud. So

1:16:00

it's not like that hasn't been accounted for that's

1:16:02

the red guy I rolled, you know,

1:16:04

okay I want a new vector you have

1:16:06

to determine vectors for reactions Intuitive

1:16:09

is I think attentive and yeah, I

1:16:11

can give you intuitive. It's a it's

1:16:13

a real It's

1:16:16

a real stretch. It's just one of those

1:16:18

things like intuitive is just so strong I'm

1:16:21

side-eyeing past Austin to be like what role

1:16:23

does intuitive not give you a vector on

1:16:25

you know It's

1:16:27

very strong So well

1:16:29

lucky for present Austin. This is almost

1:16:31

over. Yeah, well Okay,

1:16:34

sure Well compared to

1:16:36

her to last your life right here with my life.

1:16:38

Sure All right,

1:16:40

it's all I guess like a reverse threat. I

1:16:42

don't know. It's weird All

1:16:45

right. I'll let it go. So yes this

1:16:47

person misses you all

1:16:49

of your dice are discharged make-go There

1:16:53

the gun went off there, what are

1:16:55

you doing at this other alums? Yeah.

1:16:57

Yeah, okay. Everyone is screaming You

1:17:01

know Audi and Aria You

1:17:04

can hear security officers beginning to move

1:17:06

to try to like okay. It's it's

1:17:09

the world is on fire in this moment all

1:17:12

right, so I I Got

1:17:15

to try and think about what I

1:17:17

might want to do yeah and

1:17:19

my my Immediate first

1:17:22

impressions I can turn

1:17:24

off the alarms. Oh, I can misdirect

1:17:26

where the alarms are Headed

1:17:29

sure I can shoot

1:17:31

the second person I

1:17:35

can abandon Cass I

1:17:39

like that we were laying out all of your options on

1:17:42

the table. I respect Yeah

1:17:45

I can Maybe

1:17:52

hack into some of the

1:17:55

some cybernetics on the second

1:17:57

person or fight directly.

1:18:01

That's ill-advised.

1:18:07

And I guess,

1:18:12

I mean, and my top two

1:18:14

are turn

1:18:16

off the alarm, use

1:18:20

a hack to turn off the alarm, and

1:18:24

abandon CAS. Those are like my top

1:18:26

two. Because I've got the thing,

1:18:28

and the thing is really important. And

1:18:31

CAS is just going to go into a holding cell, and

1:18:34

that's where Arya is. I think

1:18:38

CAS might go into a holding cell, might be a

1:18:40

leap. Okay, might

1:18:42

get shot out. Might get shot out back. CAS

1:18:45

just killed someone, potentially killed

1:18:48

someone. He's not dead. Yeah, but

1:18:50

at the end of any scene in which one or

1:18:52

more adjectives were asserted to describe physical harming of the

1:18:54

character, there's a chance the adjective might lead to the

1:18:56

character's death. Do this for each character who's been so

1:18:58

harmed. So we'll find out if

1:19:00

you shot to death here. Also,

1:19:03

if you've broken armed to death

1:19:05

here, it seems unlikely, but that

1:19:08

would be so surprising. So funny.

1:19:10

One murder from the rest of

1:19:13

everything. One murder of, like, by

1:19:15

a CCT operative led to the

1:19:17

chime getting deployed here. And we

1:19:19

might be on the verge of

1:19:21

potentially two further murders by CCT

1:19:23

operatives. Yeah, why was it so

1:19:25

weird about y'all at the beginning

1:19:28

of the scene? Let's

1:19:30

get another crew in here to investigate this murder.

1:19:32

You know, I'm gonna be,

1:19:34

I'm gonna bet

1:19:38

on us. I

1:19:42

love to hear it. It's kind of sweet. And

1:19:46

use hack to

1:19:48

misdirect the security

1:19:50

forces one more time here. One

1:19:53

more time. Get them. I need to tell

1:19:55

you, I hear that I

1:19:57

hear the person who shot those people is

1:19:59

already outside. Need to tell you the thing

1:20:01

you will know about this is The

1:20:03

person who you were up against before is not the

1:20:05

person you were up against and now that the alarm

1:20:07

is going off Okay,

1:20:09

right. They have gone into high

1:20:12

security mode at this moment, right?

1:20:14

Yeah. Yeah like a bunch

1:20:16

of Cowards, right

1:20:19

you hear that you can hear that. That's

1:20:21

my freezer. Yeah, that's my freeze weird

1:20:24

I thought it's oh is your freezer

1:20:26

chopping? onion It's

1:20:30

my it's my ice maker, but I thought I turned

1:20:32

my ice maker off so that would stop doing that

1:20:34

But it's still doing it. I don't know what to

1:20:37

do about it Maybe

1:20:39

it's gonna get all the ice out remaining ice

1:20:41

out. It has I'm trusting me. I looked at

1:20:44

it's a whole thing. Okay, Mako Opens

1:20:47

you take advantage of the chaos opportunity

1:20:49

full-scale casino heist. I Do

1:20:53

I do like the sound of it Mako

1:20:55

full chaos take advantage of the chaos

1:20:57

opportunity? I

1:21:00

think I think the flaw is that I

1:21:03

go through the alarm has been sounded is

1:21:05

The is not the right time to steal

1:21:07

from the ball, right? Right, right? Sure

1:21:13

that makes sense. So instead you're gonna

1:21:15

try to deactivate this. All

1:21:18

right, what's your hack? Let's build that for

1:21:20

cool All right, I'm gonna use one

1:21:22

push die hold up here for

1:21:25

what thing? Criminal criminal

1:21:28

that makes sense. Yeah, I used

1:21:31

five. Yeah, I pulled them back. Yeah, I know about

1:21:33

I know about shutting off alarms Yeah, specifically know about

1:21:35

shutting off a lot. It's kind of the thing you

1:21:37

do long Six

1:21:40

that is a six. Uh Whoo,

1:21:43

I have this one die Do

1:21:48

I want to discharge this is

1:21:50

this worth discharging for this There's

1:21:53

probably something more fun later. Oh, no,

1:21:56

the thing that I like is that the alarm

1:21:58

is going off, you know I

1:22:02

Like the I like that part of the Yeah,

1:22:05

I'm gonna discharge this one to defend to bring mine

1:22:07

back up to six I

1:22:10

should say I'm not turning the alarm off. I'm just

1:22:12

moving where the alarm is telling everyone to go, right?

1:22:14

I I get you. Oh, I see

1:22:16

what you're saying. You're saying no, I'm not going I'm

1:22:18

keeping the pressure on you here This

1:22:21

person moves faster than they then

1:22:23

they seemed they would this this

1:22:25

new person that you're dealing with

1:22:28

They have nerve linked so they are moving at the

1:22:30

speed of thought just like you are and they're able

1:22:32

to keep up So you do

1:22:34

not pull this one off. You don't give them a

1:22:36

new adjective Can I? Know

1:22:40

you spend one push die. That was the thing

1:22:42

that you did there. See if you've been you've

1:22:44

been you've missed here There's no

1:22:47

resisting the resist. That is correct. You would

1:22:49

have had to have that is the thing

1:22:51

the defense gets in there in there You

1:22:53

know, yeah, I would have had to have rolled to sicker.

1:22:55

This is why or you would have had to Have had

1:22:57

another push. Yeah, you would have had to roll through sixes.

1:22:59

It's what you would have to have done. Yeah, exactly So

1:23:03

yeah, the alarm is continuing you feel like

1:23:05

the attention is like really coming down hard

1:23:07

on you right now There

1:23:10

are still this other person up And

1:23:13

they're gonna they are going to seeing

1:23:15

you hack this time this person who

1:23:18

missed you Cass

1:23:20

goes after Mako They're

1:23:23

gonna try to fight Mako and take

1:23:26

Mako hostage. They're what they're shouldn't have been on

1:23:28

us. Oh They are

1:23:30

going to try to give Mako

1:23:32

grabbed That

1:23:36

again is that's From

1:23:39

this is a kind of shoot the medic

1:23:41

situation, right? Where it's like they recognize the

1:23:44

capacity of Mako and in this moment as

1:23:46

a way to a Shoot the medic.

1:23:48

I think it's a take a hostage.

1:23:51

Okay, right Which

1:23:54

I think is slightly different here.

1:23:56

And yeah, they are gonna roll for what is

1:23:58

your fight? My

1:24:00

fight is... I think it's one. Okay,

1:24:03

that's bad. Yeah. Uh...

1:24:06

Alright, rolling. And

1:24:09

that is a six. Uh, let me

1:24:11

check. Yep, go ahead. Wait, wait, wait, I gotta

1:24:13

roll a hurt die. From

1:24:15

being stunned before it's still happening. No, there's no, there's

1:24:18

no, you have a five. You have a six. Even

1:24:20

if you... Oh, I do, you're right. Canceled the six.

1:24:22

I do cancel the six, you do. But the five

1:24:24

is just too much for you. Right. Okay. Um...

1:24:27

I couldn't even beat the three. You couldn't even

1:24:29

beat the three, you're right. Uh,

1:24:31

I am gonna give you this hurt die. Uh,

1:24:34

because I am going to give you the hurt, the

1:24:36

physical hurt. Actually,

1:24:39

I'm not. I'm gonna give you a psychological

1:24:41

thing here, which is just like... Some

1:24:44

version of scared. Someone is like... Yeah.

1:24:46

Like... You feel light

1:24:48

in this person's arms, you know?

1:24:51

And not in like a fun way. You

1:24:54

know, oh my God, they are like, they

1:24:56

lifted me up like a rag-doll. I'm nothing. Yeah.

1:24:58

Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Um, so go ahead and

1:25:00

add that hurt die. Uh,

1:25:02

I think scared is simple. It works.

1:25:04

Go ahead and add... Scared. Scared to

1:25:06

your, uh, your adjectives, your negative adjectives.

1:25:10

Uh, they got Mako, Cass. Yeah.

1:25:14

Put down the gun. You

1:25:17

think Mako has ever seen speed? So

1:25:20

they're movie nights on the team that come yet? I don't think so. I

1:25:23

don't know. They

1:25:25

show us all the old action

1:25:27

classics at the September Institute. I

1:25:31

have seen speed and I've seen speed two cruise

1:25:33

control. Well, that's not

1:25:35

as relevant to this situation. If

1:25:38

we were on a boat, it would be.

1:25:42

The fact that you say that tells me you don't know the reference.

1:25:45

Everybody shut up. I haven't

1:25:47

seen speed. Mako has seen speed. I see,

1:25:49

right. Uh-huh. Um,

1:25:52

no, I can't, right? I mean, what's your shoot? Shoot

1:25:56

to three. Oh, shoot to three. You

1:25:58

got some dice. You got three. I pushed ice to work

1:26:00

with. Yeah.

1:26:04

Well, I mean, speed says to shoot the hostage.

1:26:06

Right. Oh, sorry, I should not have taken... Oh,

1:26:08

I gave it to... Oh, sorry, I've seen Dragon

1:26:11

Ball Z. Right.

1:26:13

This is a radical Goku. Yeah, yeah,

1:26:16

yeah. You could special beam cannon this

1:26:18

guy. Um...

1:26:22

But with a 3-shoot, maybe I could just like... Just

1:26:25

do it. I could just shoot him. Just do it. Just

1:26:29

like... He's really

1:26:31

big and Mako's not that big. There must be a

1:26:33

lot of non-Mako space to shoot.

1:26:35

I don't know if there's a mechanic

1:26:37

in Technoir to like trade

1:26:40

shooting your friend for not having to

1:26:42

like roll shoot still. You would have

1:26:44

had to roll your shoot anyway. I

1:26:46

don't think that there is. But

1:26:48

I do get what you're saying. That's

1:26:50

not a bad idea though for a mechanic. You

1:26:53

could shoot your friend. I will for

1:26:55

an automatic test. I will take

1:26:58

an extreme negative... That's like a double bargain. Yeah,

1:27:01

that's a classic double bargain flatter of mine. But the

1:27:03

way that the tempo of this is, that I have

1:27:05

to let them react and the point of shooting the

1:27:07

host is they don't react. Yeah, uh-huh. You

1:27:09

know, so it's got to be like... Sure. Yeah.

1:27:12

Losing out on the double tap is the

1:27:14

real... Um...

1:27:18

So I'm just gonna... Whatever

1:27:20

he's not covering with Mako, I'm gonna shoot. If

1:27:22

it's the head, it's the head. If it's the...

1:27:25

It's whatever... Let's talk about this as

1:27:27

writers or as storytellers. What do you think is interesting

1:27:29

for Cass to shoot here? Because that's gonna

1:27:31

be the part that's not being covered by Mako. Um... That

1:27:35

gives it a... I think there is a part

1:27:38

of Cass

1:27:41

that wants to think of this person as their

1:27:44

country person, right? Right, yeah.

1:27:47

Yeah. And so

1:27:49

that... Could do the headshot. Chooses

1:27:51

to shoot the leg instead or the arm

1:27:53

or something. But

1:27:55

like a serious leg wound. Yeah. You

1:27:58

know, like... Um... You

1:28:01

know break the femur make

1:28:03

it so you have to get immediate medical attention or

1:28:05

you'll die Well

1:28:07

that'll that'll cost you It

1:28:10

will all right. I Mean

1:28:12

I I can't we

1:28:15

can't lose anyone here. It creates

1:28:17

a paradox I started saying if it doesn't

1:28:19

it happens it happens if he dies he

1:28:22

dies and Right

1:28:29

Cass and Mako were the four actually the

1:28:31

fond memories Like

1:28:34

they do it in king of the castle right where it's like

1:28:37

Oh Cass one one executed Yeah,

1:28:39

who has entered the game entered

1:28:41

it? No, I think I think

1:28:43

it's it's ghost Mako It's Mako's

1:28:46

been a clone the whole time

1:28:48

everyone knew Nick

1:31:29

yell uh... and the

1:31:32

two of you are for the

1:31:34

1:31:38

sirloin is on lockdown or is getting locked

1:31:41

down uh... you can hear

1:31:43

mako you can see through the holidays that

1:31:45

they are deploying like the

1:31:47

hover security drones to come try to

1:31:49

find you uh...

1:31:51

this is not a good place to be but

1:31:53

you do have the sirloin vip card which

1:31:57

should get you out of here Yeah,

1:32:00

I should know from being in For

1:32:04

being holidays in right where the nearest

1:32:06

like VIP door 100% it's not that

1:32:08

far away I

1:32:10

will now need art

1:32:13

you took a physical harm right or casted, right? Yeah

1:32:17

So for anytime that you take again

1:32:19

physical arm roll a hurt die for

1:32:21

each sticky or locked Negative adjective that

1:32:24

you have applied to you directly So

1:32:27

go ahead and roll this die What

1:32:31

am I trying to get don't want a six? Hey,

1:32:35

that's a four you're good and

1:32:37

then both of my characters also took

1:32:39

physical harm So

1:32:42

I'm gonna roll these oh Yeah,

1:32:46

you you're one of them dying the

1:32:48

one you shot in the chest is dying I got a six

1:32:50

here Well, they

1:32:52

are dying. The other one is just immobilized

1:32:54

as you said, but the first

1:32:57

one that you shot They

1:32:59

were such a shame that one deserved to die left.

1:33:01

Wait, no, that's what a broke my arm. Yeah for

1:33:04

no reason All

1:33:07

right, and then yeah y'all

1:33:09

y'all break off into a run presumably

1:33:11

towards the nearest VIP exit Yeah,

1:33:15

you're not using your it's all you have a

1:33:17

VIP card This is being registered as Cameron McLeod's

1:33:19

VIP card and it's not just as a VIP

1:33:22

card This is a VIP card for someone who's

1:33:24

been who? Felicity has

1:33:26

security access and was working as

1:33:28

an agent for them, but also is

1:33:30

explicitly dead correct Does

1:33:32

you know what I've been talking about

1:33:34

this casino being a real person operated?

1:33:37

They did not deactivate that card, right?

1:33:39

If anything they were hoping that but

1:33:41

you did say the word registered. Oh,

1:33:43

yeah, totally It's like somewhere it ticked

1:33:46

like dead guy using cars. That's

1:33:48

exactly correct Especially because Cameron was

1:33:50

we know that the family was

1:33:52

surveilling Cameron pretty thoroughly, right?

1:33:54

Exactly well, and they probably want this

1:33:56

card back to right and so I

1:33:59

suspect they didn't shut it down so that if

1:34:01

someone tried to use it, they would see where it got

1:34:03

used. So

1:34:06

back in the back rooms, Audie,

1:34:09

people are running around like wild. Aria,

1:34:12

the TV has switched on to

1:34:15

like the emergency channel only.

1:34:18

1:34:21

Celebrity-y emergency channel. And it's

1:34:23

Mario Lopez. E-mergency.

1:34:27

1:34:30
