Speaker 1 (00:06):
Solve Presents Amnesia, Part two? Where am I? You're back?
Where you belong? How we've missed you? Cassandra? Why do
you keep calling me that that's your name? Cassandra, You're
(00:26):
understandably confused. I've seen on the news that you've lost
your memory the news, yes, and it seems like you're
wanted by the police. But don't worry. You're safe here.
Where is here? What is this place? Come, let's go
for a walk. I'll explain everything You've lived here in
(00:52):
the desert. I don't care for the city. It vibrates
too much negative energy. Yet we're still enough to go
into town to business. Okay, look, I am freaking out, man.
Will you just tell me because you seem to know
who am i? York. Cassandra dumis senior vice president of
(01:13):
the Pickott Success Institute, And that's you, Biquet DuPont. We've
worked together for years. Cassandra, you are the most successful
recruiter of the Institute has ever had. Recruiter. Who do
I recruit people who need help gaining control of their lives.
That's where the system comes in. What system I've devised?
(01:35):
The system, which, if used correctly, allows people to attract
anything they desire into their life. Okay, this sounds familiar.
It's it's one of those new ag pyramid schemes. Oh,
it's hardly a scheme and it's not new age. It's
all based on science. A system is derived from semantics,
the study of visible sound and vibration. And how does
(01:59):
this system work? When you study semantics, which you have,
you learned that every time you think, every time you feel,
the cells in your body vibrate and send out the
sound that's imperceptible to the human ear but resonates all
of the energy around you to that sound. A low
frequency sound attracts low frequency circumstances poverty, despair, heartbreak. The
(02:25):
high frequency sound attracts high frequency circumstances, wealth, happiness, love.
So you teach people how to vibrate better. We teach them.
Oh okay, Sandra, if you could only remember how you
wear my star pupil look back at no offense. But
(02:46):
I can't imagine ever getting involved in something like this.
I'm a doctor, so I don't think I get involved
in something so hokey. Well, of course, it was the
institute that bestowed you with an honorary doctorate. In vibrational studies.
Are you telling me I'm not a real doctor that
(03:09):
when Rainbow said I was her doctor? Her mentor out.
Poor Rainbows, such a lost soul. She runs off from
time to time, talking mostly nonsense. Do you know where
she is? It's long past time for her to come home. No,
when I went back to see her, she was gone.
Uh huh a shame ah silly. Hello Beckets, isn't it
(03:35):
a beautiful day? Even more so now that Dr Loomis
is home. Hello Cassandra, welcome home. You're the girl from
the bar. Yes, I apologize for the deception Earlier Beckett
said it would be better if you opted in organically,
But the universe found it fit to bring dear Cassandra
to us, albeit on the conference center floor. I know
(03:59):
she's see her. I'll take care of us. Excuse me
for a moment, Cassandra, dilly. Under no circumstances is Cassandra
to talked to her? Come, Cassandra, help me set the
table for dinner. Who's that girl making all the noise?
(04:22):
Oh that's just Alice. She'll be sent on her way. Alice,
who we shouldn't speak her name humor, The woman who
lost her mind, Alice Wheeler, And what's Alice's problem? We
don't talk about problematic individuals here. Sorry, So who's coming
for dinner? Just us? Everyone that lives here. You live
(04:46):
here too, so do you, Cassandra and a couple dozen others.
I'm confused. I thought Beckett just sold his sound energy
system thing and had conferences. Yes, of course, for those
who are truly committed, you can move onto the compound
to be closer to Beckett. How much does that cost you?
When you live here? You don't need any money. Beckett
(05:08):
takes care of us, so you gave him all of
your money. He can do much more good with it
than I ever could. Becket's a genius, a prophet. Really, yeah,
it sounds like a swell guy. He takes such good
care of us. And if you're really good, he'll give
you treats. What kind of treats? Whatever you're into ayahuasca?
(05:32):
Benzo's harder stuff so that it keeps everyone doped up.
I guess that explains the state I found Rainbow in.
How is everything coming? We're almost ready? Excellent? We should
really get you calibrated before dinner. Why don't you come
with me to my office calibrated. You're so lucky. I
(05:55):
remember my first calibration. Please have a seat. This device
will measure the frequency that yourself are vibrating at. It
tells us what kind of energy you're putting out into
(06:15):
the world. I've done this before. Oh yes, the first
step when joining the institute. It establishes a baseline from
which we can monitor your progress as your advancer of
a system. Please give me your answer. Oh, what is that?
(06:42):
This is a very low frequency. Well, low frequency means
low vibrations. And since what you put out is what
you bring in, you're attracting all kinds of negativity into
your life. Well, it has been a rough couple days.
(07:03):
I look at you today and and I see the
same thing I saw when we first met three years ago,
a star. If you use our system to improve your vibrations,
increase your frequency, there is nothing you can't accomplish. Wow,
that's quite a pitch. You can see why people buy
(07:24):
into this. You yourself have used this system to great success.
You can do it again. But first we have to
establish your range. This is a pretty low frequency, but
we have to know what your floor is, Okay, and
how do we do that? Recall a low moment in
(07:45):
your life when you did something horrible well as fun
as that trip down memory lane sounds. As you know,
I have no memory, so I can't really you may
not be able to remember it, but you can feel
it guilt, Shane, can you find that feeling for me?
(08:06):
I guess I can try. Yes. Oh, yes, we're getting there. Now.
Let's see if this feeling can lead to unlocking those memories.
What did you do? I don't know. I feel bad,
(08:27):
but I don't know why. What did you do? Cassandra?
I don't know? Is it did I? Yes? Your kogat
mad who who was? He? So called journalist writing a
hit piece on the Institute, on our life's work. He
(08:49):
was going to completely compromise the system. He was a
problematic individual, Yes, exactly, And you, doctor Cassandra Loomis, are
problems over No, No, this is I wouldn't do that.
You would do anything for the Institute, not to mention
(09:10):
that you yourself could have very well ended up in
jail this story was published. If this makes any sense,
We believe a reporter had something that belonged to us,
something which in the wrong hands would be like opening
Pandora's box and destroy if this organization, despite all the sacrifices,
can we take a break, please, thank Etceter. Something was
(09:32):
stolen from us? Where is it? I wouldn't get out
of here? Of course? You welcome to come and go
as you please, and we can have somebody take you
into town. But where will you go? Hey? You can't
(10:05):
lock that We're open. They know I'm here. I have
to be quick. Who knows you're here? Miles? I am
in deep ship here. I can't go to the police.
Rainbow's gone. You covered for me when that detective came
in here, so I know I can trust you, right,
You're the only person I can trust. Yeah? Yeah, of
course what can I do to help? Ever? Here's something
called the Beckett Success Institute. Um, yeah, actually that would
(10:30):
be annoying. Person on Facebook post about it. It's some
kind of pyramid scheme Facebook, right, I need to see
your phone? Okay, what are you looking for? I was
at this Beckett guy's weird desert commune and a girl
showed up and I think she was looking for me.
Name's Alice Wheeler. Mm hmm. There's a few Alice Wheelers.
(10:52):
Do you recognize any of them, Yes, her, maybe she
can help me make sense of what I heard today.
I'm sending our message Ellis. This is going to sound
really weird, but my name is Cassandra Loomas and I
recently lost my memory. I think you and I know
each other. Can you message me on myles account as
(11:14):
soon as you get this? Your name's Cassandra. So they say,
what do these people want with you? Apparently I was
a member one of those annoying people on your Facebook. Hey,
let's see if Cassandra Loomas has a Facebook page. Here,
(11:34):
this is you, I want to usc apparently, because that's
good to know. Only two more spots remaining for this
weekend's conference. Register with me now and find out how
the Beckett's Sematic system can change your life. They're all
like this, So you're not a doctor doctor of good vibes? Apparently,
(11:57):
where are they able to tell anything else? Like what
happened with that dead guy? Of the message from Alice,
she wants to meet Thanks for the ride. Sure you
don't want me to come in with you, I'll be fine. Listen,
(12:20):
If you're not back at the bar by midnight, I'm
calling the police. Got it? Got it? And thanks, good luck.
Hi Alice, Wow, you really don't remember me? Do you?
(12:41):
Don't take it personally? It's just brain damage. Who are you, Cassandra?
We've been best friends since second grade. It is so
good to see you. I'm sorry I don't remember you,
but I can't tell you how good it feels to
(13:02):
meet an actual friend right now, Babe, don't worry about it.
How are you feeling? Confused? Just really fucking confused and
freaked out? Alice? I need your help. Four nights ago?
Did I tell you where I was going, who I
(13:22):
was with, cass I haven't heard from you in years,
ever since you joined that cult. It is a cult, right,
I have read all about them. It's a pyramid scheme
with Beckett at the top. He brainwashes all of his
followers into undying loyalty and labels any friends and family
who show concern problematic individuals, makes you cut them off.
(13:46):
Then what were you doing at the commune earlier? I
saw a police catch on the news your face. I
knew that Beckett had finally gone too far. That was
my sorry as rescue attempt, Alice. I'm so sorry. I
don't remember cutting you off, don't it None of this
is your fault. I thought I knew who I was.
(14:10):
I felt that I was a good person, But I
was a part of this called I scammed people. It's
not who you were that matters, it's what you do now, Alice,
you don't understand I killed someone? Do you know that?
Or is that just what Beckett told you? It's what
(14:32):
Beckett told me. Look that guy, listen to me, the
Cassandra Loomas I know, could never kill anybody. Really, then
what happened that night? Did Beckett give you any clues?
He said the dead guy was a reporter who took
something from him, something that could destroy the institute. Called
it Pandora's box. You know what, I'll bet it's the recordings?
(14:57):
What recordings? I watched this documentary on the Beckett Institute
where former members talked about how they had to confess
their darkest secrets as part of their initiation calibration, that's
what he called it. Apparently he secretly recorded all those
sessions and kept them as blackmail so people wouldn't speak
out against the institute. Hey, you don't think you know
(15:19):
where those recordings are? Do you? They could be the
key to bringing Backett down. I don't know. Maybe I
keep trying to remember even a flash of something, but
it's all just dark. I have an idea, my grandpa's
(15:41):
pocket watch. Do the trick. You really learned how to
hypnotize people from a YouTube video? You got a better idea?
I suppose, not right. Just follow the watch with your eyes,
keep your focus only on the watch left, right, left, Eat,
he's still with me? Yes, Okay. Now I want you
(16:06):
to think about where you were the night of the murder.
A parking garage. I don't know where, but can you
picture yourself there? Yeah? Actually, yeah, yeah, I can see it. Great.
Now what are you doing? Um? I'm talking to someone
(16:27):
the reporter? Yeah, I think, So what are you saying?
I can't hear. Everything's muffled and in the shadows. There's
someone else in the garage. They just locked their car
or something. Who can Sandra? Who's there? I turned around
(16:50):
to see who it is. I can't make out who
it is. It's still too foggy. Okay, let's think whoever
it is. They're much is there to kill someone? They
want something? Does the reporter have it? Do you? I
don't know, I don't know. Everything's blurry. I can't really
tell what's going on. Maybe you have something in your hands?
(17:11):
Is there anything in them? I do have something in
my hand? What is it? A gun? It was me?
I shot him. Cassandra Loomis was played by Katie McClellan.
