Okay, okay, okay, Well this is embarrassing.
Speaker 12 (03:32):
We did the right thing, Jack, you did what you wanted.
We're in public, Jack, I did what was best for
our son. We should just take a look around. We're
at his girlfriend's service. Do you have any idea how
easily it could have been him?
Speaker 1 (03:45):

Speaker 13 (03:55):
Voice, hike Todd, Rema, Jack, Hey Todd, Hey Jack. A
couple of us were wondering if we could maybe have
a talk later, talk sure, and not to be ghost.
Maybe you guys would consider waiting at home?
Speaker 12 (04:15):
What are you asking us to leave?
Speaker 2 (04:19):
No?
Speaker 13 (04:19):
No, it's just the hubbub with Avery. You know, it's
casting a bit of a dark cloud on the whole bed. Hey,
how about I cast a bit of my fucking foot
up your.
Speaker 8 (04:34):
It's Phoebe.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Is she okay?
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Phoebe? Phoebe Mony?
Speaker 14 (04:42):
Holy shit, is that a finger?
Speaker 8 (04:44):
Phoebe?
Speaker 14 (04:46):
You give that to me right now? You gotta judge
me place, young lady. Drop that right now. You will
tell us right now, where did you get that?
Speaker 10 (05:10):
He gave it to me? The dark man in the corner.
He said he was just with Aaron.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
If this draft was any bigger, we'd be protesting the war.
Let me just go ahead and erase that dad joke.
Speaker 9 (05:45):
Oh my god, I just had a dad joke and
I'm not a dad or in my fifties.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Deleted.
Speaker 9 (05:51):
Okay, So after the fifth what the fuck moment in
the diner, I think I'm gonna document more than just
possible story stuff, just in case my body ends up
being party face. I heard two small children at memorial
services on a lighter note slash worst segue ever. Gordon
has been even more adorable. So normally I'd say I
want to take him home, but technically I'm homeless and
(06:12):
he lives in a library. That being said, cute Gordon
is get this gathering a set of books to bring
to the coop or what they call the Cooper nursing home.
Every week he delivers a curated box of selected works,
plus any request the residents have. And let me tell you,
that man is checking off boxes I never knew existed.
(06:32):
If only he could check off the properly insulate an
old building box, we may be engaged already.
Speaker 8 (06:38):
Engage.
Speaker 9 (06:39):
Nope, didn't scare me. I heard them close toed Birkenstock
feet from a mile away.
Speaker 8 (06:44):
But I also heard talk about engage.
Speaker 9 (06:47):
I was remembering my favorite Star Trek episode.
Speaker 8 (06:50):
Oh yeah, which one?
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Is this one of those?
Speaker 9 (06:53):
I'm wearing the band shirt, so I have to prove
that I'm a fan by naming a song toxic Snyder
cut dude, bro moves.
Speaker 15 (06:59):
Oh no, no, I've only ever seen like two episodes
of any Star Trek.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Ew really is that bad? It was here the cracks
started showing.
Speaker 15 (07:07):
Okay, well, allow me to redeem myself. I have seen
every episode of Doctor Who.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Okay, you can stay.
Speaker 16 (07:16):
Hey.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
I wanted to ask, did you know Erin at all?
Speaker 2 (07:20):
No?
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Not really, like not really didn't know her at all?
Speaker 6 (07:25):
Well, well, no, I mean she came in a few
times and I can remember.
Speaker 15 (07:29):
But you know, the institution of the library isn't really
keeping up with the TikTok algorithm, and most of the
famous ones are still open because social media.
Speaker 6 (07:37):
Has deemed them a tourist destination.
Speaker 14 (07:38):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
But I didn't ask about them.
Speaker 15 (07:41):
I'm so sorry. I guess I'm still processing all that's
going on.
Speaker 6 (07:45):
You know what, I think?
Speaker 15 (07:46):
I want to see Miss Milligan, along with the others
still at the coop, make some people smile today after
that craziness as Shaws.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
I get it. I'm sorry. I guess I'm always in
work mode.
Speaker 15 (07:58):
No, No, it's okay, I get it. I really should
have watched more.
Speaker 8 (08:01):
Star Trek.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
Doctor who.
Speaker 15 (08:04):
I mean, come on, there will be no tarnis Lander
tolerated on this trip.
Speaker 4 (08:09):
Oh, I'm coming, I mean, if you want.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
I was kind of hoping I.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
Could talk to miss Milligan and see if she could share.
Speaker 8 (08:17):
Anything brilliant alone.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
See if that's a reference. I swear this place looks
like one of those horror movie orphanages.
Speaker 8 (08:36):
That's basically any brickhouse in New England.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
Exactly.
Speaker 8 (08:40):
What's your favorite orphanage movie?
Speaker 4 (08:42):
Can I say the Orphanage?
Speaker 16 (08:44):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (08:44):
That works?
Speaker 5 (08:45):
You win?
Speaker 8 (08:46):
I do first price? What is it you get to
carry half the books.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
In I should have said the devil's backbone.
Speaker 8 (08:54):
Oh, now that would have gotten you a cargo free entrance.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Noted. So this place is definitely not haunted.
Speaker 15 (09:01):
No, but it kind of has that clean, old person smell.
Oh I know that, and I can't imagine ever putting
my folks in one of.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
These, even if it was the best option.
Speaker 15 (09:12):
Oh my god, I once joked that we were gonna
put my boilin at home. And let me tell you,
my entire family didn't talk to me for a month.
My birthday was in the middle of it all, and
I didn't even get a high five.
Speaker 8 (09:22):
I didn't get the gandul she promised me. I didn't
get anything. It's just kind of like a wink. I
got a wing from my grandma.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Oh.
Speaker 9 (09:28):
Speaking of no communication, hello, huh, that's weird.
Speaker 15 (09:35):
One at the front desk, but also the exodus. Okay,
but someone has to be here if.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
They can't just leave the patients residence.
Speaker 16 (09:43):
Oh if they catch you calling them patients.
Speaker 9 (09:46):
Oh, I'm sorry I didn't Gordon.
Speaker 5 (09:49):
Is she with you, yes, ma'am great? You know the
rules about visitors.
Speaker 16 (09:53):
Not on the list?
Speaker 15 (09:54):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (09:54):
Sorry, Eliza, Misscastle, Miss Castle, You're lucky I'm too understaffed
and those books will come in handy, so let's go.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Thank you, Miss Castle.
Speaker 8 (10:09):
Is this everyone?
Speaker 5 (10:10):
The other nine were all picked up by their families
for early winter trips. Hello, missus Bridgers. Everything okay, must be.
Speaker 13 (10:19):
Nice kids, Missit ain't there folks under them?
Speaker 12 (10:24):
Buzard anymore. I gave them everything a second they could leave.
Speaker 16 (10:30):
They left down.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Though, missus Bridgers, these aren't anyone's kids. This is Gordon,
the librarian you met on our field trip back in May.
Poor woman has no idea what I just said. She's
been angry at her family since they checked her in
four years ago.
Speaker 4 (10:47):
She's been alone for four years.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Younger generation doesn't like the burden of taking care of
the people who take care of them.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
Yeah, must be a bummer, Oh, miss Milligan.
Speaker 8 (10:57):
I'll leave you.
Speaker 15 (11:01):
No, Miss Milligan. Mister Cahill retired a few years ago.
I'm the new and improved model Gordon from the library.
Speaker 16 (11:08):

Speaker 8 (11:28):
Yes, yes, we got some doozies today.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
Miss Milligan.
Speaker 9 (11:31):
I was hoping you'd be able to tell me about Joshua,
your son. You remember him right, Maybe what he said
before he.
Speaker 16 (11:39):
Left or child? Come here me closer, young lady. If
you're going to stay, don't trust the dark man in
(12:00):
the corner.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
I'm sorry, what.
Speaker 16 (12:04):
Leave the books here? I need to take a nap.
Speaker 8 (12:09):
Alrighty, well, we'll see you next week.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Who are you?
Speaker 12 (12:15):
Did you hear? What the fuck?
Speaker 14 (12:16):
She just said?
Speaker 8 (12:16):
The dark man stuff?
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (12:18):
Wasn't that basically what Aaron's little sister said?
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Man?
Speaker 8 (12:20):
I don't think so.
Speaker 15 (12:21):
I think she was And this is pretty par for
the course with the elderly in New England.
Speaker 8 (12:25):
Referring to me.
Speaker 5 (12:26):
What.
Speaker 15 (12:27):
Yeah, she asked for Dean Koons's watchers two weeks ago
and could only find whispers, So I may have played
it off like that's the one she wanted.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Wait what?
Speaker 17 (12:37):
No?
Speaker 9 (12:38):
I mean that's terrible, But it isn't that what Aaron's
sister phoebe? Yes? Uh, Phoebe? Isn't that what she said?
Speaker 15 (12:46):
Honestly, it is so loud to the diner that I
don't remember I'm telling you though, Milligan's just salty.
Speaker 8 (12:51):
Also, she's a coonsman in Stephen King Country. I mean
she should know better.
Speaker 9 (13:06):
It remains the windy city inside this book Sanctuary. And yes,
I know that Chicago was called the windy City not
just because of the crazy windstorms, but because their politicians
were full of hot air? Sarah, did I just man
explain myself anyway?
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Fuck?
Speaker 14 (13:21):
It's cold, Gordon?
Speaker 9 (13:24):
Is there heat anywhere in this cursed building?
Speaker 4 (13:34):
Great? Doesn't like Star trek Love's lame is? Where did
I go wrong?
Speaker 9 (13:38):
All right, let's brow me the use this bitch.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
There's got to be a heater or access to, as.
Speaker 12 (13:44):
Jesus a wind tunnel.
Speaker 9 (13:46):
Why well, Sarah, glad you asked, because you see, books
don't get cold, so why don't anyone ever need to
invest in an adequate humane heating system for them? That's
a great point. Sarah, who is now talking to herself
in the first, second and third person, stayed to see
if I can have her talk to you in the
fourth as well. Okay, it's fridgid down here, and I
(14:06):
think what the wind is coming from the janitor's closet,
which for some reason is hidden behind a bookshelf. This time,
are intrepid. Yes, I've decided intrepid stays. Our intrepid explorer
has secured the barrel key and has figured out how
to deactivate the alarm. No to Selve, don't keep the
(14:29):
alarm security code on a post it on your bedroom mirror.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Huh?
Speaker 9 (14:42):
Hello, okay, well, this draft is clearly.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
Coming from a closet. That doesn't make sense unless I
move this and these jumpers.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Huh.
Speaker 17 (15:02):
And that, my friends, is a very small door. It's
like an Alice in Wonderland door with a sketchy chain
lock on it locked this Keith definitely won't fit, but
it does open a bit. Maybe if I can put
my flashlight in the opening looks like a tiny little
(15:23):
cross space.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Pretty empty? Wait, what's that? If I can just get
I can just yep a little more?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Got it?
Speaker 4 (15:41):
What a Nokia cell phone? My museum really is?
Speaker 9 (15:48):
It's alive?
Speaker 8 (15:50):

Speaker 18 (16:42):
Received Tuesday at nine ten pm.
Speaker 11 (16:46):
Rynn hits me. I'm sorry about earlier, but listen to me.
If you need to go home or come here right away.
It's not safe at the diner or anywhere.
Speaker 15 (16:55):
Really.
Speaker 11 (16:55):
I can't explain it, but I've asked Dad to head
down and offer you a write. You should be there
in a few.
Speaker 12 (17:02):
Fuck.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Fuck, fucking fuck.
Speaker 19 (17:04):
Fuck.
Speaker 9 (17:04):
That means Jack stopped to take my car and never
got to pick up Aaron in time. Why is this
phone here? Why was it hidden in the closet, behind
a closet, behind a door. Oh the dark man, Fuck me, Sarah,
I gotta get out of here. So, in a classic
(17:26):
trope filled Sarah move, I think I've been sleeping with
the killer.
Speaker 4 (17:29):
It can't be, but I wasn't with Gordon Manny.
Speaker 9 (17:32):
The bodies were Oh, for fuck's sake, Okay, we'll figure
this out.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
But for those of you listening, looks like.
Speaker 9 (17:39):
A pretty big commotion at the station at the other
end of town.
Speaker 12 (17:49):
Olbert, I'm going to need you to tell me exactly
what happened.
Speaker 8 (17:54):
I'm sorry, Max. He said he needed to go to
the bathroom. Yes, and then so I opened the cell
and pull him to the men's room.
Speaker 14 (18:01):
And did you escort the detainees?
Speaker 8 (18:03):
He's just a kid, and I've known him since he
was born.
Speaker 14 (18:06):
I understand, but we have protocols for a reason. I
had no idea.
Speaker 5 (18:11):
I didn't know he did.
Speaker 9 (18:13):
Sheriff, Miss Simmons, what on earth are you need to
talk to you?
Speaker 11 (18:17):
Now?
Speaker 8 (18:17):
Is not a good time?
Speaker 9 (18:18):
What happened? We're not at Liberty.
Speaker 12 (18:20):
Too, you've re escaped.
Speaker 14 (18:21):
What you know?
Speaker 12 (18:22):
Bear to you're too.
Speaker 11 (18:25):
Sure?
Speaker 16 (18:26):
Let's go with that.
Speaker 9 (18:28):
Yes, Miss Simmons, looks like we've got a fugitive on
our hands.
Speaker 8 (18:33):
Oh, it's my fault. So there you have it.
Speaker 9 (18:37):
Nothing says I'm really guilty, like running away after being
questioned for murder.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
I don't think avery is guilty. Oh I found this.
Speaker 8 (18:46):
That's a pretty old phone, maybe older than.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
You probably, but it's what's on it.
Speaker 9 (18:51):
That may answer some questions if I could just play
you the oh no, no, no.
Speaker 4 (18:57):
No, good luck finding a charger for.
Speaker 8 (19:02):

Speaker 14 (04:42):
Holy shit, is that a finger?
Speaker 8 (04:44):
Phoebe?
Speaker 14 (04:46):
You give that to me right now? You gotta judge
me place, young lady. Drop that right now. You will
tell us right now, where did you get that?
Speaker 10 (05:10):
He gave it to me? The dark man in the corner.
He said he was just with Aaron.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
If this draft was any bigger, we'd be protesting the war.
Let me just go ahead and erase that dad joke.
Speaker 9 (05:45):
Oh my god, I just had a dad joke and
I'm not a dad or in my fifties.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Deleted.
Speaker 9 (05:51):
Okay, So after the fifth what the fuck moment in
the diner, I think I'm gonna document more than just
possible story stuff, just in case my body ends up
being party face. I heard two small children at memorial
services on a lighter note slash worst segue ever. Gordon
has been even more adorable. So normally I'd say I
want to take him home, but technically I'm homeless and
(06:12):
he lives in a library. That being said, cute Gordon
is get this gathering a set of books to bring
to the coop or what they call the Cooper nursing home.
Every week he delivers a curated box of selected works,
plus any request the residents have. And let me tell you,
that man is checking off boxes I never knew existed.
(06:32):
If only he could check off the properly insulate an
old building box, we may be engaged already.
Speaker 8 (06:38):
Engage.
Speaker 9 (06:39):
Nope, didn't scare me. I heard them close toed Birkenstock
feet from a mile away.
Speaker 8 (06:44):
But I also heard talk about engage.
Speaker 9 (06:47):
I was remembering my favorite Star Trek episode.
Speaker 8 (06:50):
Oh yeah, which one?
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Is this one of those?
Speaker 9 (06:53):
I'm wearing the band shirt, so I have to prove
that I'm a fan by naming a song toxic Snyder
cut dude, bro moves.
Speaker 15 (06:59):
Oh no, no, I've only ever seen like two episodes
of any Star Trek.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Ew really is that bad? It was here the cracks
started showing.
Speaker 15 (07:07):
Okay, well, allow me to redeem myself. I have seen
every episode of Doctor Who.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Okay, you can stay.
Speaker 16 (07:16):
Hey.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
I wanted to ask, did you know Erin at all?
Speaker 2 (07:20):
No?
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Not really, like not really didn't know her at all?
Speaker 6 (07:25):
Well, well, no, I mean she came in a few
times and I can remember.
Speaker 15 (07:29):
But you know, the institution of the library isn't really
keeping up with the TikTok algorithm, and most of the
famous ones are still open because social media.
Speaker 6 (07:37):
Has deemed them a tourist destination.
Speaker 14 (07:38):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
But I didn't ask about them.
Speaker 15 (07:41):
I'm so sorry. I guess I'm still processing all that's
going on.
Speaker 6 (07:45):
You know what, I think?
Speaker 15 (07:46):
I want to see Miss Milligan, along with the others
still at the coop, make some people smile today after
that craziness as Shaws.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
I get it. I'm sorry. I guess I'm always in
work mode.
Speaker 15 (07:58):
No, No, it's okay, I get it. I really should
have watched more.
Speaker 8 (08:01):
Star Trek.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
Doctor who.
Speaker 15 (08:04):
I mean, come on, there will be no tarnis Lander
tolerated on this trip.
Speaker 4 (08:09):
Oh, I'm coming, I mean, if you want.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
I was kind of hoping I.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
Could talk to miss Milligan and see if she could share.
Speaker 8 (08:17):
Anything brilliant alone.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
See if that's a reference. I swear this place looks
like one of those horror movie orphanages.
Speaker 8 (08:36):
That's basically any brickhouse in New England.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
Exactly.
Speaker 8 (08:40):
What's your favorite orphanage movie?
Speaker 4 (08:42):
Can I say the Orphanage?
Speaker 16 (08:44):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (08:44):
That works?
Speaker 5 (08:45):
You win?
Speaker 8 (08:46):
I do first price? What is it you get to
carry half the books.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
In I should have said the devil's backbone.
Speaker 8 (08:54):
Oh, now that would have gotten you a cargo free entrance.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Noted. So this place is definitely not haunted.
Speaker 15 (09:01):
No, but it kind of has that clean, old person smell.
Oh I know that, and I can't imagine ever putting
my folks in one of.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
These, even if it was the best option.
Speaker 15 (09:12):
Oh my god, I once joked that we were gonna
put my boilin at home. And let me tell you,
my entire family didn't talk to me for a month.
My birthday was in the middle of it all, and
I didn't even get a high five.
Speaker 8 (09:22):
I didn't get the gandul she promised me. I didn't
get anything. It's just kind of like a wink. I
got a wing from my grandma.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Oh.
Speaker 9 (09:28):
Speaking of no communication, hello, huh, that's weird.
Speaker 15 (09:35):
One at the front desk, but also the exodus. Okay,
but someone has to be here if.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
They can't just leave the patients residence.
Speaker 16 (09:43):
Oh if they catch you calling them patients.
Speaker 9 (09:46):
Oh, I'm sorry I didn't Gordon.
Speaker 5 (09:49):
Is she with you, yes, ma'am great? You know the
rules about visitors.
Speaker 16 (09:53):
Not on the list?
Speaker 15 (09:54):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (09:54):
Sorry, Eliza, Misscastle, Miss Castle, You're lucky I'm too understaffed
and those books will come in handy, so let's go.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Thank you, Miss Castle.
Speaker 8 (10:09):
Is this everyone?
Speaker 5 (10:10):
The other nine were all picked up by their families
for early winter trips. Hello, missus Bridgers. Everything okay, must be.
Speaker 13 (10:19):
Nice kids, Missit ain't there folks under them?
Speaker 12 (10:24):
Buzard anymore. I gave them everything a second they could leave.
Speaker 16 (10:30):
They left down.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Though, missus Bridgers, these aren't anyone's kids. This is Gordon,
the librarian you met on our field trip back in May.
Poor woman has no idea what I just said. She's
been angry at her family since they checked her in
four years ago.
Speaker 4 (10:47):
She's been alone for four years.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Younger generation doesn't like the burden of taking care of
the people who take care of them.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
Yeah, must be a bummer, Oh, miss Milligan.
Speaker 8 (10:57):
I'll leave you.
Speaker 15 (11:01):
No, Miss Milligan. Mister Cahill retired a few years ago.
I'm the new and improved model Gordon from the library.
Speaker 16 (11:08):
The cover, the what the cover?
Speaker 8 (11:12):
The book cover? Miss Milligan.
Speaker 15 (11:14):
I don't think she likes does Jackets?
Speaker 16 (11:16):
Who are you?
Speaker 9 (11:17):
I'm Gordon Gordon and you Hello, Miss Milligan. I'm Sarah
Simmons and Gordon and I have brought you some amazing books.
Speaker 8 (11:28):
Yes, yes, we got some doozies today.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
Miss Milligan.
Speaker 9 (11:31):
I was hoping you'd be able to tell me about Joshua,
your son. You remember him right, Maybe what he said
before he.
Speaker 16 (11:39):
Left or child? Come here me closer, young lady. If
you're going to stay, don't trust the dark man in
(12:00):
the corner.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
I'm sorry, what.
Speaker 16 (12:04):
Leave the books here? I need to take a nap.
Speaker 8 (12:09):
Alrighty, well, we'll see you next week.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Who are you?
Speaker 12 (12:15):
Did you hear? What the fuck?
Speaker 14 (12:16):
She just said?
Speaker 8 (12:16):
The dark man stuff?
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (12:18):
Wasn't that basically what Aaron's little sister said?
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Man?
Speaker 8 (12:20):
I don't think so.
Speaker 15 (12:21):
I think she was And this is pretty par for
the course with the elderly in New England.
Speaker 8 (12:25):
Referring to me.
Speaker 5 (12:26):
What.
Speaker 15 (12:27):
Yeah, she asked for Dean Koons's watchers two weeks ago
and could only find whispers, So I may have played
it off like that's the one she wanted.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Wait what?
Speaker 17 (12:37):
No?
Speaker 9 (12:38):
I mean that's terrible, But it isn't that what Aaron's
sister phoebe? Yes? Uh, Phoebe? Isn't that what she said?
Speaker 15 (12:46):
Honestly, it is so loud to the diner that I
don't remember I'm telling you though, Milligan's just salty.
Speaker 8 (12:51):
Also, she's a coonsman in Stephen King Country. I mean
she should know better.
Speaker 9 (13:06):
It remains the windy city inside this book Sanctuary. And yes,
I know that Chicago was called the windy City not
just because of the crazy windstorms, but because their politicians
were full of hot air? Sarah, did I just man
explain myself anyway?
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Fuck?
Speaker 14 (13:21):
It's cold, Gordon?
Speaker 9 (13:24):
Is there heat anywhere in this cursed building?
Speaker 4 (13:34):
Great? Doesn't like Star trek Love's lame is? Where did
I go wrong?
Speaker 9 (13:38):
All right, let's brow me the use this bitch.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
There's got to be a heater or access to, as.
Speaker 12 (13:44):
Jesus a wind tunnel.
Speaker 9 (13:46):
Why well, Sarah, glad you asked, because you see, books
don't get cold, so why don't anyone ever need to
invest in an adequate humane heating system for them? That's
a great point. Sarah, who is now talking to herself
in the first, second and third person, stayed to see
if I can have her talk to you in the
fourth as well. Okay, it's fridgid down here, and I
(14:06):
think what the wind is coming from the janitor's closet,
which for some reason is hidden behind a bookshelf. This time,
are intrepid. Yes, I've decided intrepid stays. Our intrepid explorer
has secured the barrel key and has figured out how
to deactivate the alarm. No to Selve, don't keep the
(14:29):
alarm security code on a post it on your bedroom mirror.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Huh?
Speaker 9 (14:42):
Hello, okay, well, this draft is clearly.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
Coming from a closet. That doesn't make sense unless I
move this and these jumpers.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Huh.
Speaker 17 (15:02):
And that, my friends, is a very small door. It's
like an Alice in Wonderland door with a sketchy chain
lock on it locked this Keith definitely won't fit, but
it does open a bit. Maybe if I can put
my flashlight in the opening looks like a tiny little
(15:23):
cross space.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Pretty empty? Wait, what's that? If I can just get
I can just yep a little more?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Got it?
Speaker 4 (15:41):
What a Nokia cell phone? My museum really is?
Speaker 9 (15:48):
It's alive?
Speaker 8 (15:50):
Wait a minute.
Speaker 9 (15:51):
Four new voicemails.
Speaker 18 (15:53):

Speaker 18 (16:42):
Received Tuesday at nine ten pm.
Speaker 11 (16:46):
Rynn hits me. I'm sorry about earlier, but listen to me.
If you need to go home or come here right away.
It's not safe at the diner or anywhere.
Speaker 15 (16:55):
Really.
Speaker 11 (16:55):
I can't explain it, but I've asked Dad to head
down and offer you a write. You should be there
in a few.
Speaker 12 (17:02):
Fuck.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Fuck, fucking fuck.
Speaker 19 (17:04):
Fuck.
Speaker 9 (17:04):
That means Jack stopped to take my car and never
got to pick up Aaron in time. Why is this
phone here? Why was it hidden in the closet, behind
a closet, behind a door. Oh the dark man, Fuck me, Sarah,
I gotta get out of here. So, in a classic
(17:26):
trope filled Sarah move, I think I've been sleeping with
the killer.
Speaker 4 (17:29):
It can't be, but I wasn't with Gordon Manny.
Speaker 9 (17:32):
The bodies were Oh, for fuck's sake, Okay, we'll figure
this out.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
But for those of you listening, looks like.
Speaker 9 (17:39):
A pretty big commotion at the station at the other
end of town.
Speaker 12 (17:49):
Olbert, I'm going to need you to tell me exactly
what happened.
Speaker 8 (17:54):
I'm sorry, Max. He said he needed to go to
the bathroom. Yes, and then so I opened the cell
and pull him to the men's room.
Speaker 14 (18:01):
And did you escort the detainees?
Speaker 8 (18:03):
He's just a kid, and I've known him since he
was born.
Speaker 14 (18:06):
I understand, but we have protocols for a reason. I
had no idea.
Speaker 5 (18:11):
I didn't know he did.
Speaker 9 (18:13):
Sheriff, Miss Simmons, what on earth are you need to
talk to you?
Speaker 11 (18:17):
Now?
Speaker 8 (18:17):
Is not a good time?
Speaker 9 (18:18):
What happened? We're not at Liberty.
Speaker 12 (18:20):
Too, you've re escaped.
Speaker 14 (18:21):
What you know?
Speaker 12 (18:22):
Bear to you're too.
Speaker 11 (18:25):
Sure?
Speaker 16 (18:26):
Let's go with that.
Speaker 9 (18:28):
Yes, Miss Simmons, looks like we've got a fugitive on
our hands.
Speaker 8 (18:33):
Oh, it's my fault. So there you have it.
Speaker 9 (18:37):
Nothing says I'm really guilty, like running away after being
questioned for murder.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
I don't think avery is guilty. Oh I found this.
Speaker 8 (18:46):
That's a pretty old phone, maybe older than.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
You probably, but it's what's on it.
Speaker 9 (18:51):
That may answer some questions if I could just play
you the oh no, no, no.
Speaker 4 (18:57):
No, good luck finding a charger for.
Speaker 8 (19:02):
There you are. I was worried when I couldn't find you.
