(00:14):
Yeah, that's fair, not thewaho. I would like whoever wants to
do it one final act under pressureto get the vents off and get y'all
out of there. Yeah all right, well okay, red break. It
is part of the you know what, you will get the one forward on
this, but I need you toact under pressure. That's fine, that's
my good stand pressure rid me,stop pressure me? Okay, wow,

(00:39):
damn you know what the one timeyou needed to roll good huh sniley?
Yeah, yeah, the one time. All right, You've already memorized where
the events were in your head,so by the time you took the corner,
the screwdriver was already out. Youwere like ripping that shit apart.
Eye in it. Ice pick isgoing to be a tight fit. But
you can. You can get allthree of y'all through there. Not fat,
I'm just really weird. Listen toyour unit, as the kids said,

(01:03):
very wire unit and ren Bray blankface, you know, sweat on
his brow. He's hustling y' allthrough. He's gonna take up the rear
here. You put the vent backon as you get through, shimmy up.
You just pass the threshold of thefloor. You're on like the floor
wanting in the bows of the buildingnow, and then you see three feet

(01:23):
below you. It's like someone justcut a straight line through it. As
you see, you're the midigun andyou have suspicion that floor three has met
the same plate as floor wanting tohell. Fire rounds man. The insurance
companies are gonna love this. That'swhere we're gonna leave our three intrepid infiltrators,

(01:47):
soot all over their face, crawlingthrough the vents. I'm sure there's
Noah's beestos in here. I'm sureit's been long enough, but that's no
longer on a cot. You don'tgot to worry about that. Yeah,
they have new cancer causing chemicals togo out there shit with now it's true.
You get them crawling through and thenwe get a cut to the outside

(02:07):
of the ramen shop. The twomook's asleep at the door, definitely just
asleep, and we find ourselves withMitch jaber Jaenka Fritz and Nobunaga and the
most boring police officer known to manat a standoff of sorts. Well so
here, I am well marinated inmy anxieties. Thank you. I'd like

(02:30):
to roll edge to check it outand hopefully figure out the best way that
Fritz and I can get out ofhere. Okay, so you're rolling a
sessca. Yes, please edge forme. Oh boy? All right,
you know the drill. We gotthe questions what is the best way out

(02:53):
for us? Because ideally I'm notgoing to bail on Fritz here. I
mean, there's the backroom to thekitchen is like the way that is not
toward officer. Wait a minute,wait a minute, So let me let
me just verbalize what I'm imagining.So here we are Fritz's office, and

(03:14):
for some reason it's just oversaturated withlike newspapers and other papers, really weird
for this day and age. Allthis hardware is like yellowed from the apathetic
kitchen staff smoking cigarettes on their brakes, leaving the open and all that.
For sure. Yeah, it's notold technology. It just looks nineteen eighties

(03:37):
old because because the cigarette smokes andcooking oil and just other rimy shit just
building up on all the plastic andother Yeah. So he's got one door
to the front of house and anotherdoor like right to the kitchen. He

(03:57):
doesn't even have an isolated spit.God, that's so him, No kidding
me, No, absolutely not.It's amazing. Love it all right.
So it's Frits, me and thisguy who just wants to talk for the
record. That's all he said rightnow. He did knock out fucking Tweedledum

(04:21):
and tweedledd here. You don't knowwhat necessarily happened out there to can facilitate
that, but that's what you know. I also know. I'm still on
the clock. I gotta go.Okay a humor officer, bland man,
Okay, what are you talking about. I feel like we've gotten off to

(04:41):
the wrong foot. I will notinsult you by making you pronounce what my
real name is, but you cancall me Stefan. Okay. I see
that you've gotten the information from ExoticTransports and what they were trying to cover
up. I don't actually consume whatI transport. I'm a professional like that.

(05:05):
His eyes kind of like we're focusedon you, then kind of lock
onto Fritz. Oh. I seethat you've done some research into what Exotic
Transports is up against. I aman associate of their guests. I would
really like to see my friend againin safe places. I think we can

(05:29):
facilitate that. For one another.The confusion on Midge's face is very plain.
Yeah, wait did I did hesteal the beans of what was going
down there? I forget I doI feel we paid a reveal. We
looked at some of the footage,but it was so nonsensical to us that
I'm not sure it's registering that it'sreal necessarily yet it's just too wild for

(05:55):
all we know. It's some highschoolers film project. Do you know what
I mean? I can't believe I'mgonna say this. Then I assure you
that what you might think is afairy tales reel. I am a representative
and agent of the Glendato Empire,and my prince is helvunder captive at Exotic
Transports. I can help you getto your friends if you can help me
