What's a knocks turn everybody. I don't have the cameras on right now because
we're still waiting for c K to get here, and I'd have to recapture
everything once she gets here. But I figured I could go ahead and start
the recount of episode so everybody can get und But when she actually gets here
and the show begins, I'm gonna go ahead and do that. Now about
silence disturbing into the darkness, and your eyes will adjust the time. Proceed
at your own risk. Previously on Nocturno, I'm gonna have a quick walk
around. I'm just gonna walk start walking around the print of the building.
Now, you can walk all the way around it if you'd like. The
rest of the building looks very much the same decade. You get a faint
smell when you step really close to the wall, mildew, but you can
also feel a great sadness and almost hear a weeping run at time, guys,
I can feel it. Yes, you enter the Lucky Rabbit and everything
is as it was before, at least on the inside, which is fucking
strange. Outside looks terrible, inside is still buzzing. Lots of people.
Time has passed since you left, I've turned around and I'm my back's to
the bar and I'm leaning against it and on my elbows on the bar,
and I'm looking. I'm not drinking anything, but I'm looking around in maybe
a way people watching. Okay, you do notice something really strange. There's
a little girl in here. You see crazy hair over there. Yeah,
he fell in love and then decided to fuck everybody's world up. Okay,
so if you really want to point fingers, it's him and someone named adsa
Beello. I made a new friend. Yeah, well what was that about?
She? Uh? She might be able to help ananks the justs jezz
Yeah, leave the leave the ritual with me. I'll see if I can
find out what exactly it is so we know how to how to stop it.
The only other option is to fight it head on. If I I
can get there, you might be able to get to me. Then brier
and pull the rest with you. Yeah. I noticed she was a puller.
But it really hasn't gone too well for him, so I just yeah,
don't get caught doing that shit. A cleaner will come and get you
soon enough. You can head out now. I know Lee can get there
if you want to head there. I'll send Lee after with any information that
I find. I'll try and fix it. I appreciate that before you go
you might end up being what makes it work this time. As you leave
the Lucky Rabbits, there are pendants on the bar, six of them.
How are you doing this? And who are you trying to pull? When
you Trick and Emma, okay, I'm thinking there together. Okay, So
I'm gonna go into the veil and see if I can find a door that
they might be behind. Stop, stop and stop. You said you would
never leave. I'm just tears. Your trick is dead. I'm just as
good and and everything is just happening in slow motion. The blood is spraying
out, the body is falling slowly. I'm me to trust you. He
made the right choice. Give what you had to do to protect what's yours,
protect your family. We should leave, Chrick, what did you do?
I'll tell you on the way. We should take the back way out.
I'm gonna run up and grab his hand like kind of like a little
kid would, and like squeeze it really hard. What what is hop Come
on, I had to make a choice. You feel horrible, You smell
like, what did you do? I chose you? What I choose you.
I'll always choose you. I choose you. It's okay, I'm okay.
You're really freaking me out. I'm never gonna leave. Oh just just
told me from me wrap my hands as far around them as I possibly can,
and like crush, squeeze, I'm gonna be fine. Everything comes circle.
We see them huning in the alleyway. Just for a moment. There
is still chaos that we can hear in the background. People screaming, you
know, shouting. There are sirens now that you can hear in the distance.
I'm going to turn the door handle and open it. What do you
say? An alleyway? Trick and Emma kind of cowering behind a garbage dumpster,
and so I step out, but the door is open, so you
can just see blackness behind me. And I walk over to them without saying
anything, and I just reach my hand out and take Trick's hand and pull
them with me back into the veil, And just as quickly as we step
through, it's like the curtain again. We come back out in front of
the Lucky Rabbit. Amazing. Thank you guys so much for waiting c.
Kate is home now, just getting ready to turn it on our PC and
we'll be right with you. Thanks so much for waiting. J John Jr.
I'm in the apartment. That stuff all on the floor. Everybody's gone.
I think something went wrong, something went really wrong. Let me help
you. Welcome to the dock this morning. Red your eyes will adjust the
time. Welcome to table, stories not turn everybody. Thank you guys so
much for waiting for us. We're here now and we have a question.
I believe we're doing the what's your what's are we really doing this? What's
your worst nightmare or one of your worst If you don't want to say the
worst your worst nightmares, that's a good question. I hate it. Thanks.
Let's start. Let's start with Millie I. I used to have nightmares
as a kid. I had night terrors for about three years straight. But
my my main one was that I was in like a forest and it was
all really calm. There was a little old lady and a group of small
children and they were all picking flowers, but it was like eerily calm,
and I knew something dreadful was going to happen, and then armageddon, like
end of the world, Pillars of Flame a horrendousness, but it was the
same one every single night, and because it was night terrors, it was
walking night terrors as well, So I was half conscious, so at different
points in the dream, I would always have my hand on the door handle,
and once the armageddon thing happened, I was always standing in the lounge
in front of my parents, like, eyes open, but not there at
all. So yeah, oh stream, Nope, yep, it's totally fine.
We had an audio dcinc. So I had to refresh and this is
what happened. But that's okay. Please continue with your story as well.
I haven't that's it. It was. It was pretty bad. But I
feel worse for my parents because they literally couldn't leave me with a babysitter for
about three years. Oh I yes, I can relate to that. Oh
I can relate to that pretty hard the nightmare thing yet, yeah, imagination.
Okay, who is next, Zeke? Actually you're next in the overla
even though we can't see you. But I'll do that right here. Okay,
what is my worst nightmare? Like, the worst nightmare I've ever had
is that we're doing? Okay, if you don't want to share, the
worst one. We can just do one of Oh God. I had I
had a dream when I was a kid that my dad died and he came
back like from wherever, and he was he was like, I was like,
Dad, what happened? I was, you know, bawling, and
I was like, I don't know how old I was. I had have
been like junior high ish, like twelve thirteen something like that, and uh,
I dreamed that he had died. I don't know how he died or
anything that, but I just knew he in the dream, you know things,
So I knew he had he had died. And he came back from
wherever and was standing like in front of me, and he goes and I
go like, Dad, what happened? How did you die? Oh my
god? It's like it's okay, son, they don't hurt your heart in
heaven. And I was like, what did I do something? Oh God?
This? Did I hurt your heart while you're here? Oh God?
And I just woke up just like bawling. He's like, no, no,
horrible, it was horrible. That is horrific. Yeah, terrible.
Yeah, Yeah, this is a great question if it's in the mood.
The mood it kind of does. Should I put some music on? Of
course? Okay, all right, I got it. I'm on top of
it. Here we go. Oh wait, oh, wait for the music,
all right, Daniel q ah. Yes, So also as a kid,
because most of my nightmares now are usually just waking up from who knows
what, like you didn't file your TPS report, and then I wake up
with an adrenaline spike and stare at the ceiling and get myself to calm down,
realizing you have quit that job like seven years ago. You're okay,
oh wow, But more along the lines of when I was a kid or
maybe a teen, because I don't know, somewhere around there, my brain
is fucked up. Who would have thought I'm on this show? And so
my nightmares make no sense. It's nothing like even slightly dipped into realism.
So the most vivid nightmare I had I was upstairs in our two story home
growing up, and I hear meowing clear as I hate it already. Yeah
I didn't have we never a cat, but I hear it, and I'm
like, that sounds like it's from outside. So looked out the window and
looked down into the cul de sac and there's just a cat there mewing just
in the cull a sack, which is like two hundred feet away at this
point, because we're up like I lived in the middle of the woods on
a hill and I was looking down the hill, and then down in the
cul de sack catches me on and then look at it just like stop cat,
like go away, because that's apparently what I need to do in my
dream. And then it snaps its head at me and its head gets large,
like zooms in on the head, and then I wake up in a
sweat. No, thank you, Yeah, i'll pass. I'll pass.
That was the nightmare. My nightmares were all on that level. That's a
hard pass the all physics space, like the law. This doesn't fit because
I used to have that with all like something's wrong, like my brain just
it would twist reality. That's why I can't watch horror movies. I can't
do horror movies because a getting the next day. It's too real, so
my brain fucks with it. Never work in a hospital. Oh yeah,
I was just gonna say, like, you probably have pretty intense uh in
too. I actually don't, which I think says more about me than it
should. Like is my, I'll just go I guess I talked my.
I have like recurring dreams and nightmares that always happen in the same places.
And my most recent nightmare is definitely one that's like a recurring one I've had.
It's basically I have a baby, but the night there part is that
I just wake like in my dream. When I become conscious of the dream,
I'm pregnant and I give birth and I'm like, oh no, And
I usually put it in a closet and just leave it there forever. WHOA.
I more times in my entire life than I could ever tell you hashtag
I don't want kids if you can was I'm not supposed to laugh with that.
No, it's weird, but I mean I'm not killing real babies,
so I guess at least it's in my dreams, right. Yeah, See,
I can laugh at anything, right. That's I told a really really,
really bad joke, Like an awful person would laugh at this kind of
joke at at Burning Man. It did not go over well, no,
it was too bad for burning Man. Well. Sensitive liberal uh, A
lot of them are sensitive too sensitive liberal fuck wads out there, a lot
of them. But if you want to hear that joke, I'll tell that
all that burning man ship tomorrow tomorrow Channel KPP. Do you want to share,
like one of the worst nightmares you've ever had? Sure, I won't
show the worst ones. I'm gonna share one that I have reoccurring ones too,
And it's mostly when I'm like looking for somebody that I care about and
I'm on a boat in the ocean. Then the boat breaks and then I'm
left alone in the ocean floating and there's sharks everywhere, and I like keep
going under the water and I see the sharks. Jesus. I love sharks,
but I have a huge fear of them, Like I don't swim in
the ocean. I have a very rational fear of sharks. So my nightmares.
If I didn't take night Quill, it gives me this nightmare and I
will have this stream where I'm in the middle of the ocean. I can't
get out of the ocean. It's just sharksmares. Ever, Yeah, I've
played that. That one doesn't scare me because it's so cartoony. Okay,
it gave me. It gave me the sweat. The couple sharks sweats where
you play like divers and the sharks attack you, and that game actually freaks
me out, And I do that as charity incentives because I freak the f
out when I play it. But can anyone else run in their dreams?
I can never. I've never ever managed to be always freeze motion. Yeah,
I'm trying to go, But when you're running through tar or something becomes
such a like such a recurring thing in my dreams, trying to run away
from stuff that I remember that I can't run, get down and do like
a bear crawl like as fast as I my fucking hands and knees. I'm
like, I know I can't run. This is the fastest locomotion I got.
It's fucking terrible creature out of Silent Hill, you know, because I
like start running, I'm like, oh that's right, I can't. It's
like a half lucid dream right there. At least that's kind of nice.
Yeah, yeah, I only tell myself like, hey, grow wings and
fly, you're dreaming. I used to be able to do with that when
I was a kid. In actual reaction, I could never trigger lucid dreaming
because the worst part would be I would think that I had I'd be like
I'm looking at my hands like I'm able to do things, and then the
dream would get scary, and then I'd find out it wasn't lucid at all
and I had absolutely no control and that was not a good space. Yeah,
I'm indulged in that for like six months, and then I stopped dreaming,
or rather I stopped remembering my Yeah. I think that just means you
don't wake up during your rim cycle, is what that is. Yeah,
do you remember your dreams? It means you don't sleep very well. Yeah,
it means you're interrupting. Yeah, you're interrupting your m cycle. I'm
afraid, Like, friends, you guys remember that that nymer on El Street
where the dude was like really into comic books and then he like dreamed and
he made himself like this comic book hero and he was like, fuck you,
Freddie, and he was like blasting him with guns and shit like that.
I'm afraid that what happened in that will happen to me. Like I'll
be like, I'm lucid dreaming, I can do whatever I want, and
then my brain I'll go, nah, fuck you, I'm gonna take over.
And then I'm like oh rides my lucid dreaming. Yeah, you are
away al along. Yeah, oh god, I'm responsible for so many murders.
Oh my god. Well, just speaking of should we should we start
the show? I mean I will, I will, I stah, let's
go ahead and start the show. I will share not the scariest nightmare I've
ever had, but a recurring scary one for me because I don't want to
cheat. Oh man, my heart rate is climbing just thinking about this.
It's a will. It will change depending on where I have fallen asleep.
So if I fall asleep on the couch, for example, I dream that
I have like woken up a little bit, everything's still dark the way it
exactly was as I fell asleep. If you know my hubby is there on
the couch, I imagine, like I dream that he's there on the couch
and there's just somebody standing like right over me, and it fucking terrifies me
and I wake up. Yeah it's real bad. Yeah that's a skin crawling
type. Yeah, you need to do your nightmare too. Almost you can't
escape your nightmares, no goodness. I won't share my darkest ones, but
there's one that's been occurring since I was five years old. It's just it's
it's a weird one. It's just all I hear is like this weird bass
tone and this high pitch down that kind of goes with it. And then
it's just these two images that flash. One with a white background and this
smooth, weird looking I want to say alien, but kind of this weird
off shape human human entity, and then this black background one with this smudged
ink pastel looking like fat face that's just glaring in my eyes. And those
images will just flash back and forth, back and forth. As a kid,
I don't know come, it'll come back like once or twice every year,
and I'll just get that same dream and it just never goes away.
And I can I can't get those faces burned down of my brain. Gross.
It's weird, hard hard. That's another thing I never do. I
could never see anyone's face that is freaky. It's freaky. Thank you.
I'm gonna sign up from that. It's trying to look at someone like through
like uh, like the heat waves over a campfire. Dreams, the swallow,
the negative, just the negative ones. I used to have a recurring
sex dream, which was awesome. It was like a story that like when
I was like going through puberty. I think it was what it was like
hormones. I would go I would be excited to go to sleep. Maybe
I'll recurring dream. I like that. That's way better than straight up murder,
where we're going to start today's episode with not a sexual encounter, but
straight up murder. We are going to begin today's episode with Henry and Lilith
slash Emma in the back alley. The last thing that happened between the two
of two of them was Henry had asked Emma to just stay with him for
a minute, and they embraced. So how long do people normally hug as
long as they need to? I guess Okay, we should probably go though.
Let's tap back to then it's a group, Okay, they should know
what happened now, Okay, I'll tell you what happened as well. Something
that happened. Yeah, we should get a move on, all right,
Okay, I'm gonna just grab his hand and not really ever let go of
him. Okay, Trick, can you roll for me? Thirty nine?
Thirty nine? Okay, and what is your soul stat? Seventy five okay.
When she grabs your hand, the shot rings out again in your mind
and you see yourself shooting her in the back of the head. All right,
I I like, I don't I don't stop fully stop, but I
definitely like stutter my step and try and shake the image out of my head.
Are you okay, I'm okay. We just let's just just keep going.
I'm going. You just grabbed my hand really hard. Yeah, are
you okay? No, I'm not, but I'm I'm good enough, kidding.
I had to make a choice. Hey, we should get back to
the others then and talk about it. Yeah, I don't feel right here,
both of you roll for me. You're gonna try to sneak sneak down
the alleyway right to try to head back towards the cafe Sleepy Bean, right,
okay, oh, puppy year old remember, and then Henry one more
time for me? Okay, excuse me, thirty. So you guys are
gonna make your way down the alley way kind of ducking behind, trying not
to be seen by anybody. Henry probably is leading the way, I assume,
or is Emma. Yeah, yeah, and I'm just holding okay,
So Henry you rolled really well, so you like peek behind, like you'll
stop right before a break in a building, and you'll peer your head around
and look and see. And you can see people like screaming on the street
and running around, and you can hear the sirens. They're still going.
There's two emergency vehicles now that have come by the police as well. And
you wait for a break and then you kind of dash across while holding her
hand, and then when you get to the other side of the building,
you pause and you wait. It's very intense. Your heartbeats are racing for
both of you. Henry, what in the fuck went down? What is
going on? You have to tell me as I skimper after him, because
I'm pretty sure one step of his is probably like two of mine. Yeah,
we weren't that far from the coffee shop that we left, right a
couple of blocks away here, Okay, okay, it's not too far.
Okay, I'll tell you when we get there, I promise, But right
now we need to move. I promise, please, I'm moving. I
just what in the fuck? As I skimper after him, Let's just go.
It's fine. As you guys are getting ready to leave the second alleyway.
The strangest fucking thing happens. You get ready to step forward trip a
trick, and it looks like a curtain like opens in front of you,
but it's a curtain that has reality as its backdrop, and it opens to
darkness, and then Brier steps through. I just walk up to him and
grab his hand. I don't say anything. Can I turn around? Where'd
you come from? You have to go? I know that? What go
with you? Yeah, we're going back to the group. Yeah, that's
where I said. And I look at Emma. Can I see her?
Yeah? Diden, Hey, I grab her hand too, and I start
backing up towards the curtain. Are we This is fine, It's gonna be
okay. We just gotta just come with me. And I walk through the
curtain. Emma, do you resist? I'm gonna look at Henry what it's
okay? Is this a thing? Now? I don't know if we should
go through that. I mean, just look back to the coffee shop.
That's where we're going. Well, it's not quite where we're going, all
right, Well, wherever we're going, it's better than here. I have
been left out of a conversation, and I'm just gonna stomp through the curtain
ahead of him. Okay, are you holding Briar's hands still when you go
through the curtain or do you just let go and then stomp through the curtain.
No, I'd still hold on okay, And you're still holding on to
my trick as well, so all three of you are linked. Okay,
I need to one way as you walk through the curtains. Sorry, go
ahead, Brier, You're fine. I rolled an eleven thirty nine again.
When we walk through, it's like you're hip. It's like when you're inside
a cool, air conditioned store and the door is open. It's like this
warmth hits you. And just as fast as you feel that, you feel
this rush of cold again as we go through another curtain, like almost immediately,
and then we're out standing in front of the Lucky Rabbit and what was
behind us is just a parking lot. There's nothing different, and you can't
reach back and feel anything behind you. You're no longer in the alley now,
and the group's around us. What the fuck? Who's that? Oh?
What the fuck that you were able to bring them for? Just fine?
Very good? Who is that? That's that's echo? She's good.
What's an echo? Oh gosh, how do we Okay? So is he
wasn't real? Apparently it was a mix of myself and Adisa. I created
her. I don't know how I fucking did that, but apparently she is
from where we just came from. And uh so she's your baby, she's
from the veil. We just came from the veil. She's what's the veil?
I have missed something. This isn't the best place for this kind of
conversation. Well, then should we start head into your warehouse? I think
that would be wise unless there's any other last minted things and look around to
the rest of the group that you need to take care of for are we
good? Symbol? And I'm in my head trying to run through what I
remember of that little snatch of memory. If you're trying to access you'll just
need to roll three three, Okay, So you're trying to remember what exactly
Isy's first memory of getting pulled into that into this reality A seven okay mm
hmm. Yeah, you can access that. You remember it perfectly, but
it is it is again like you're reading a book or watching a movie rather
than experiencing it yourself. It's like you have her memories on film that you
can pull up and watch, but you don't feel anything. You don't experience
it yourself. Going to the sanctuary, are you? Are you expecting a
fight? Probably wish we don't have to go there first, though, never
Jazz said that this bah was connected to another one. Perhaps that would be
a good place to start. It might be a bit of a safe place
to explain things by pointing at Emma. That would be lovely. Yeah.
Right, Are we avoiding the sanctuary because it kind of feels a little bit
like that when we go there, there's no going back. I think is
he knew something about that? It's it's hard to explain, but I think
maybe today's not a good day, or maybe usually you're supposed to be there
on the seventh, but we might be able to check things out ahead of
time before. Mike is a very dangerous word. That's why I don't suggest
we go there first. You did say this timeline's different, though, maybe
it doesn't matter if it's on the seventh day. I don't think it should
be today. Maybe I'll lead on your wisdom. Uh, well, well
you just did, Briah. Uh just look at trick and Emma, do
you feel all right being pulled through the veil? So to speak? What's
a veil? Was that what you walked through? To think of it as
a space between spaces. You've been in it before with me? It was
refreshing. No, she has You're right. You remember the darkness and then
there was the door that was the veil. We just went through it again.
Do you own it now? I don't own it. I think that
it works with me now, So no big scary teeth man anymore. If
I want, yes, but I won't. I don't think pop up out
of nowhere. Cool. I'm listening to all this al nice, feeling jealous
that they got to experience that. Everything's so quiet now, and I don't
know how to marry that with what's actually going on. Could you like make
a hound like you? Yeah? I think out of shadows, but I
don't think quite like you. So you could make shadow hounds that could theoretically
need owners. And I've never explored that, but I guess I could try
it. I'm just saying it's an idea. I'm saying it's sad. Who
are you you smell clean? Mh? I'm I'm gonna take a step towards
her and just kind of start smelling the air around her and trying to figure
out who she is. I'll take a tentative step back towards Brian. Go
ahead and roll for me, Emma, I've rolled a fourteen. Oh yeah,
you can smell her very clearly. She smells. She smells of oil.
What do I never smell good like motor oil? Yeah? I love
motor oil, so down with it. You smell like a mechanic. Did
we need a mechanic? I'm not sure what to do with that. Yes,
it's still no. She's her own person. Now, how did we?
Okay? Hid good? We really should not be standing here all right?
Leads everywhere, and I think I know why lead on. I'm gonna
grab Henry. I don't think I I never like go of Henry's hand.
I'm still holding Henry's hand. It's probably a little outstretched. I'm probably like
hanging off of Henry's weight to sniff Echo and ambulance drives by. I'm watching
how physically comfortable she is with that contact, and thinking back to Izzy's memories
of her and just smile. I'm sorry for you. Did you say you
were getting into the car. No, I didn't thank you. Uh brih.
Yeah. Do you know if you have access to grand Theory, Because
I know I can get there on my own, you potentially could find your
way to me. If I do that. I just want to make sure
we all get there. I can go look. Would you like to go
look? Ors? Would you like me too? Because I know I can?
Well, then why would you go look? So that you could find
your way to me? Ok? You can. It's not like he like
sets like a little light off or anything, and I'm like, oh,
there's professor. Well that's what I was wondering. I didn't know exactly how
you can make it work. If I give you some thing of mine,
could you find yourself to me and look to Emma and so could I guess
I could just go in and see if I could find it, and then
if not, you could go and smell it. Yeah, you could smell
it and then we could find them in all right, Well, if you'd
wish to try, by all means, I just want to make sure we
do this the safest way. Yeah, I'll just go look now, and
I'll it'll ripple behind me and I just kind of slide into the veil.
I want to turn around and look at Trey Henri be okay, don't feel
you're okay. I'm not going to go in that unless you say it's okay.
Okay, I'm gonna squeeze his hand, Henry, Henry, I'm sorry,
I'm sorry, I'm here, I'm sorry. I'm gonna grab his other
hand. Only Henry hears that, Henry, what is going on? I'm
gonna let go of his hands, and I'm gonna reach up and try to
put my hands on his face and like make him look at me. Why
won't you look at me? What is going on? Just stop? Please?
Just stop touching me and talking to me. Just stop, please.
I'm gonna back away and kind of recoil like I've been hit, right.
You don't know what happened. They say, what happened. I tell you
what happened. Yet you've been standing right here. I'm just trying to figure
out who that is. I forget that would be the best left for you,
Rick, Henry, unless you'd prefer otherwise. No, you need to
know know what what is it? Nobody's telling me right now. I'm getting
really frustrated. Okay, what the fuck is going on. I'll tell you
I had to make a choice. There was another there was another you from
some other place, some other time. What and wait, I'm gonna look
at THEO. What did you do? Not me this time? Who did
it? Who did it? I'm sure what happened? What happened? The
two of you couldn't live in the same place at the same time. You
did know I hadn't make a choice. I'm gonna take a step away from
him and recoil even more. I put the other one down. If you
want to know, I don't know what you mean. That doesn't make sense.
The other Emma in cold blood in front of that bar while you were
picking songs in the jukebox. Just there was no other choice. There's always
another fucking choice. You will come first. It was it was me.
Both you couldn't exist, So I chose you, Like I said, how
can you choose me and murder me at the same time? Because it wasn't
you? This one is you? You are you? And she was from
a timeline that was that was everybody was dead and it was it was deleted
from the universe or whatever. She had nobody to go back to. Her
master was gone. Every body was gone, and it was just you.
It was you or her, and I chose you. Do you understand now?
Now? You know? Now? I would like to not talk about
it for a while. We are going to join Briar in the veil at
the moment. H mh Briar? Uh? Wow? What are you?
Uh? What are you trying to do in here? I'm looking for a
grand theory or an opening to grand theory. Read that, okay, and
I can bring them all because apparently there's a spell or some sort of curse
around the town, so we can't leave. So I'm going to try to
find an alternative way in. Okay, what does this look like when you
enter the veil? And you, because I assume you're trying to get there
still with you from your door, I have to think about how I say
this, right, you still want this door. You don't want a different
door. You want this one, meaning meaning that I want the door that
I came out of. Yes, but you yes, you want that door
that you came out of. But in grand theory, yes, I want
it in the same timeline. That's what I was asking it, and I
want I didn't want to feed it to you yeah, I want to see
if I can find the same grand theory in the timeline that we're currently in
and if I have access to it. Okay, okay, you roll to
forty nine, so I will let you role play out what you think this
looks like when you see multiple options and they are confusing. I hear whispers
as I'm walking. It's like a dark hallway, but there's no discernible walls,
and at the end there's staggered doorways and they all look different, and
I feel like I'm trying to listen to see if I can get any sort
of clue that might say this is the right one. But it's like there's
a standard white door, but then there's an elaborate door with oak carvings in
it, no oak tree carving, and then there's another door that's black and
modern, and they're just all scattered around, and I'm assuming they all lead
to grand theory, but I need to pick the right one, and I
ask the voices or the veiled ones if they can help me. Oh,
yes, yes, you can go ahead and roll again for me. Yeah,
sixty two. What is it when you ask them? Are you just
saying it out loud or are you thinking it? How how do you go
about asking them for help? I use my mind because I feel like it's
just the way I would just can you help me find which one the grand
theory that I need? So when you call out for a minute, there's
no response. It's kind of like all you hear is that little bits of
whispering, and then you hear but also this one over here. They are
all calling to you. You see five doors before you. I'm gonna because
the stakes are so high, I'm going to back away from the doors and
go back to the group and probably have the O go because wait, where
are you going? You're telling me there's multiple doors, multiple ways to get
there. I need the right one. The right one help me? And
I start to ignore them and I go through the curtain and come back out
to the group. Back's a grand theory or I mean back to athemore.
Okay, all right? When you walk out, there is some fucking tension
in the in the room. I guess it's not really a room, but
there's some tension between everybody. Everybody's pretty quiet. Henry looks very upset.
Emma looks pretty upset. I was literally gone for like a few minutes.
Welcome back. Yeah, I couldn't find it. There's too many options and
we need to make sure it's the right one. What's going on? I
know what happened. Now, we're not going to talk about it anymore.
Please, she's okay. Yes, who's okay? The one you killed?
She's okay. I took her somewhere safe. What do you mean after you
shot her? I went to her and I took her to the veil and
I brought her to a new home. Wait, is she and your wabbly
curtain thing? She went through it that she lives somewhere else now, So
what did I actually do? Then? You killed her, but I took
her soul somewhere else. A good place then is to reach out really quick
and grab briars. I'm do your thing. I still have one. She's
in a happy place. She's a dog all the time now, but she
can run free and do what she wants. No, I meant the soul
part. Do I know if Emma has a soul? Yeah? I can't
answer that. I think you have to go like based on what your character
would think if you were asking me, Yeah, I think you have something.
So it's the only word I know how to explain it. There's something.
It's better than nothing, right, Yeah, flick a maggot out of
my ear, right, Henry, How does this make you feel? I
mean, it makes me feel a little relieved, but also like I don't
know what, like what she's talking about. I feel a little bit.
It's like it's like when you feel relief, but you feel a little like
fraudulent about that relief. Yeah, like that's how I feel. I feel
like she just told me that they took the dog to a farm up state,
and I really really want to believe that. Do you believe it?
It's it's kind of like the agnostic thing, like I don't know, I
really don't know if because there's I mean, normally I would say no,
I would say that's bullshit and all that kind of stuff. But like with
all the stuff that I've seen and been through, that could very well,
like she could be a soul shepherd for all I know, and like with
the ability to take souls to their to the happy hunting grounds or whatever you
want to call it. So I'm it's it's reserved relief for sure, but
it's still like I can't get the image of her falling out of my head.
Like that's continuously like on a loop, every like every time I forget
about it, it comes back and I just see it like black and white
slow motion, like a fucking an action movie. It's like boom fall,
boom fall. Do you see the back of her head when she falls?
Like, do you focus on the gunshot or is it just the act of
her falling that you find upsetting? There's the Yeah, it's the act of
falling. Yeah, okay, the gunshot is what like that's like the opening
of the of the memory. I don't see it. Hear it? Well,
I hear it, but I don't see the gun go off. I
just see the slow falling forward. Can I find like the video that somebody
took that's all over the news? Yeah, I'm going to watch to roll
for that. It's all over Twitter and all that stuff. So I'm gonna
have pulled it up and I'm going to hand it to Trick because it does
show at the end that her body disappears. Yeah, watch it all through.
Why you show me this? I don't want to see this. I
already tout her somewhere and you can see that. Are you gonna take it
and watch it. Yeah, I'll keep I'll watch it, but like I'm
gonna close my eyes of the parts I don't want to see. Also,
I have to face it, Mart'll haunt you. Throw a glance at Bria,
just terrified of what she just did. So go ahead and roll trick.
I'm just going to see how good you are knowing the appropriate time to
look. Man, You've been replaying this moment over and over and over in
your mind. You know exactly how long it took. So you open your
eyes and she's already on the ground. You are gone, but you do
see Briar walking up to her, kneeling down, and then her body disappears.
Both of them disappear, just the one, just Emma, So Briar
remains in Emma's body is gone. Yep. Then Briar stands up. She
looks around and it looks like she makes eyes with someone with a phone and
starts walking towards them. And that's where the video ends. If I were
just seeing this, I chalk it up to Oax, some sort of magic
trick. If I wasn't there, so I guess m I don't know what
the thing. I know what I did. Do you trust me. Can
I that answers it? I know what I did, and I take my
phone back and I walk away from him. Where are you going? You
guys are still in the parking lot of the Lucky Rabbit. I'm heading to
the Subaru. I'd walk over there too. I just stand there watching him.
Who Henry Henry? Yeah, puzzling over the last time she had a
proper conversation with it. I've already robed for it. She remembers, is
he having that conversation with him out on the porch really clearly? Which role
was it? Thirteen? And I'll I'll take a step forward, and I
remember what I did with Leo in the cafe where I kind of looked at
him and he could see familiarity in my face. And I don't say anything,
but I just I want to know if he gets that as well,
because I think it might make him feel better. I want to help.
I want to comfort him somehow. Ah, if you like, touch me
or whatever. Look at my eyes, touching, just looking empty. House.
Lights are on, there's no furniture inside, There's nothing in there right
now. This is frustrating because I know if Easy was here, she'd be
able to fix this like that. That's a weird word to use for that
ability, change the memory, take it, steal it. No, that's
not necessarily fixing it. Help. Do you think that it's fixing? Does
Echo think that it's fixing repairing? Echo thinks it's putting somebody where they need
to be to function. It's a kindness. It's like stroking the lucky rabbit.
Didn't help anything, but sometimes the comfort is enough. Sometimes not remembering
is better. Interesting, thank you? Well, just I'll look at Brian
and see what he's doing. I've been watching this entire things as the outside
of the group. They've they've they've been through so much, and I've been
pulled into this for a ride. So I'm just silently, respectfully listening and
just keeping my head kind of down in and check, knowing my opinion holds
no weight with this, with what's going on. So what do you think
about what Henry said that he put another one of them down? How does
that make you feel? Hearing that? Well, when THEO pulled me originally
knowing that they needed me, they're already dropping like flies. I didn't put
much weight into it, more the emotional, I would say I put more
way into the emotional situation of it all, just with the group therapy stuff
that I've heard that stuff before, So you just you just respectfully listen and
if you actually have something to invest into it or say something, then maybe
you can. But usually you just just people need people to hear it.
So I just sat there quietly observing the whole situation. Okay, Yeah,
THEO and Briar at the car, are you talking or are you just standing
there waiting talk? But not once? She'd like once I once? She
what are you doing me? That's a better question because you went to the
subrow first, Brier. Yeah, I'm opening the door to the passenger seat
and I'm going to get in. I'm just rearranging my bag. I'm moving
the gun seja. So for me to get there, I need to go
alone. There a way we can put like a tracking beacon on you or
something. I look back to Emma, you have one. I just bring
her with me in there. She can find anyone anywhere in the world.
Aren't you like a ghost? I can kind of, it doesn't matter.
I still have a living body for the time being. Okay, as well
as she can find you, you can test it before I go, I'm
gonna smell him. Does he smell like anything? Oh RhE let me look
at your sheep forty nine over forty five? Uh, what is theo?
Does the aware cologne or anything? Probably not, because he's been seven years
trapped in this hell hole. I mean diote, probably like minor deodorant.
When he's in public. He had, you know, the same routine,
like wake up, do your normal things so that you can function in society.
It's part of the routine. Okay. Outside of that, TB can
tell you, Okay, So he he smells faintly of coffee and peroxide.
I just kind of like, I smell that and I just kind of go
like I leaned into much. Yeah. I didn't flinch. It just saw
you doing it. And it's kind of like nod in my head a little
bit. Now it might work. The bod comment got me like, I
want your bood, Like, what are you doing? Professor? Knocked that
ship off. It's like what I can put the can the aerosol can in
my drawer at work. It's got a sy torso on the bottle. What
do you want? A yes? So if you want to ask her,
she could close her eyes and I'll spin around a few times and she'd know
where I am. It's a thing that hounds can do. I don't have
to spin. Oh that's right, they see they can also hear very well.
Spin. Yeah, I'm just gonna yell over to her, Emma,
would you be all right with Track and the professor so we can get to
grand theory? Can I eat him? That would be unwise, As I've
said before, you say that because you would be dead. I mean,
it's obviously you're gonna say that. Oh, you wouldn't exist anymore either.
Probably you're just like full of like little threats, Like do you know that?
How much you say like little threat bout of her? It's not a
threat, it's the truth. You wouldn't exist without me? Kind of deal?
Man? You really should How would you rather me say? If I
don't exist, this timeline collapses? I mean, I've heard it a lot
now. I don't know what to tell you. Everyone wants the truth,
but no one likes to hear it. Just add on the shoulder, any
man, here's well, what do you mean? Like he's right with what
he's standing right here? His body is right there. Yeah, I'm one
pointing at him. Yeah, he's gonna go somewhere else, and then we
gotta go into the veil and find him. Oh, I have to sniff
him in your curtain place. Yes, essentially, Yes, it'll be difficult,
but you should be able to. Isn't there gonna be like, yeah,
that's fine. Whatever. Cool. I'm gonna look back at Henry,
but I'm not gonna say anything. I'm just gonna like look at him,
like, are you gonna fight it? Well, all right, let's do
this. Take whatever you'd like with you, pointing at Briar's bag just in
case something goes wrong. Yeah, I grab my bag and the gun.
Okay, and you're going to open the veil and go through? Or is
THEO going first? Shall we go together THEO? Or should we? I
mean, well, then do she go? If I just go with you?
Yeah, I can't bring anyone with me. Oh that's the problem,
and you should wait. I don't exactly know how long it will take.
It will be shorter than a normal trip, but it could be ten minutes,
fifteen minutes, an hour. Okay, But like last couple of times
you've done this, you've just kind of like died, and this is different.
Okay, I was just checking. I need to make sure I have
all the information before. Yes, I'm going to drive, okay, and
then I'll be there. That's how I had the case, because I drove
last and sit down on the driver's seat and make a roll. Okay,
that is a thirty two, which is a success. All right, I'll
see you all there and I drive to Grand Theory. All right, So,
Brier, you took your bag in your shotgun. Did you take anything
else out of the car before THEO left? Well, okay, THEO starts
up the car fucking drives off, leaving you all standing there in the empty
parking lot of the Lucky Rabbit. What was that for? I was trying
to see if I could remember the last time Busy remembered THEA driving away.
She does, no, Well, I guess we got to wait till he
gets there and then we can pop pop in the veil and go sniff some
stuff out. How do we know when he's there? That's a good question.
Could we just go in and like meet echoes peeps and I could just
I mean, it's not like I turn the smelling on. It's just suddenly
I smell asshole. So yeah, I mean, could you smell out grand
theory? I mean maybe i'd have to have like a really specific sent that
only comes from grand theory. Does anybody know what grand there is like known
for like do they have huckleberries or some shit? Try smiling smiling for rain,
but like a specific kind of rain. You'll know when you smell it.
All right, I guess we'd go in and start seeing if we can
get there. We could try to beat them there. I'm gonna start like
waving my hand back and forth in the air space where the curtainy place was.
Yeah, nothing moves for you. However, I just need to be
clear. This is a I'm pretty sure this is a significant charge for you.
How many yes, how many of these do you have? Which part's
significant charge? To sniff things to track, Like what you're about to do
is a significant charge? Three? You have three, So you basically have
three attempts at this. And keep in mind all of your other spells that
require significant charge you will not be able to use if you don't have enough.
Okay, just because we don't usually do stuff like this, so I
thought i'd remind you. Oh, thank you, So you're going to use
a significant charge now to try to sniff rain for grand theory, right and
I have are we doing it in the veil? I believe? So okay,
I just wanted to make sure that that's what you're going to attempt to
do. Okay, So Brian, I need you to roll to Oh you
don't need to roll to open the veil anymore. You can just go ahead
and do that. You can open the veil. So where she was waving
her hand before she can, yeah, you can do it again. Do
what just to feel for it? But I kind of look at her like,
oh, you caught me and we thinks in it. Yeah, she
can feel at this time, and she can go through if she wants.
Dude, I know all right, just having in high school, I'd live
in it. It's just going to walk through and I'll follow her. So
anybody looking at these two as they go through, it's like the world has
been torn open where there's a moving curtain and everything just moves aside as they
slip behind it into darkness. Bria saying I'd live in it gives me very
confusing feelings, and I'm not sure how I feel about going back there.
It's kind of it's like that feeling you get when you get invited to a
school reunion or something. And part of me is hoping that it'll be exactly
the same, and there's a small part of me that's scared that I can't
go back, that it too much has changed, or that I've done something
wrong. And I'll just kind of stare at the air where they step through
and look back at Brian and Henry. Henry does not look right, and
there's enough of a memory there of some of his he's trauma work to know
that he's basically just a very badly programmed response machine right now. So I'll
step up to him, okay, Henry, and I'll hold out my hand
and see if he takes it. H m hm, just give it a
little squeeze, and look at Brian. Are we were? What are we
going to? Are we following them? I? I guess so? Is
everyone good? Interesting question? That's not read my place to talk about it.
But what are we doing? We're gonna go and find the others?
I'm sorry I was. I was checked out that whole time. Where did
they go? They're going to grund theory? Is that where the professor went?
Mm hmm. What are we gonna find there. I don't know yet.
Well know they you take the first step, or we hope to find
there. I guess onces. Wow, we tried to go there a couple
of times, never made it. I think there's a new technique. Now
that's something it's hard to explain. We're just gonna go through the magic door.
Then they went through. I think, sir, how about you,
Brian, how are you feeling? Ah ready? Are you No? But
that doesn't matter much now, does it? Yeah? Um hm, I
kind of stroke his hand, remembering back to what I did with the bar.
Okay. I just want to at least make him feel like somebody is
there. I don't I know you don't remember me, but I remember you.
M I wish I see would say it to help you. H But
now I'm going to have to do. I'm sure you'll be fine. M
Wait a minute, mhm. I just remember something. I have a meeting
today four. Anybody know what time? It is? All right, man,
I don't got anything on me. Everything got left in the grocery store
that I got picked up in. I am like someone should apologize to you,
Brian, for dragging him into this. Might as well be me.
You seem like you had your lafe pretty well put together, and it sucks
that you had to be dragged into this. Well, it's kind of weird
how this world works, isn't it. You may be fine, but somewhere
else you may not be. If that makes any sense. It does,
and I I'm glad you do. And oh I owe a few people he
helped me out, So I'm I'm I'm happy to be here. I'm happy
to help out any that I can. I'm gonna look at my phone and
see what time it is roll for me. Okay, sixty four. Your
phone is glitching between eleven two and four thirty. Your battery is also going
down as the time progresses. God damn it. You have the watch I
do, but that doesn't tell real time, at least far as I know.
It just tells that the time we have left. Let's take a look.
I pull out the pocket watch. You still have three days left.
Okay, hopefully everything will make a little more sense on the other side,
but I wouldn't count on it neither. Well. Ready, m yep,
how do I do? I just is there like a door there that I
can just walk into? Or well, it was a it was a curtain
that they pulled back so you could try to go where you saw the curtain
was and try to pull it. Yeah, I'm gonna do that, like
like real tentatively, like is this yeah, Brian, did you leave it
open? No? Nothing happens when you swipe it the air. I'm not
I'm not getting anything. Anybody else want to give it a go. I
walk up and kind of like like I'm gonna lean into it a little bit,
you see if I can touch it, and then I'll like kind of
stumble at all for a little bit. No, it's not here. Oh,
they must not have known we were falling. Kind of waved my hand
in the air where it was. So what was all that talk about staying
together? All right? Okay, great, well she he's got the vehicle
and you were in an empty parking lot. Okay, maybe we should maybe
organize a little better for this whole end time thing. Huh. That would
be a nice mm hmmm. That'd be a nice start. Would have been
really nice if she'd imagine the coat. Hm hmm. Well if we go
inside of the lucky Rabbit here, So what's your what's your what's your stick?
By the way. Uh, she's Henry. Uh what do you do?
What's your thing you bring to the group here? Oh my? Oh,
well, like I don't know if names mean stuff out here, but
I was partial to right sex magician, cock wizard, and I would know
what that is, maybe like a terminology for that, the proper one.
I have a question to ask you your personal quest in this timeline of Brian.
Oh oh, did you ever find out more? I'm gonna say no,
okay, hmm, it's up to you to fire you're out how much
you discovered. But yeah, you would know what that is. You would
know you're you're awakened part of the bar, you know, Ah, yeah,
right, okay, Yeah, we have nicknames for it too. Would
come from funck fairies. Ah. I like that one. I like the
alliteration. Well, a lot of women actually get into that one. It's
a lot easier for them to believe it or not. Ah, would I
know what that is? Because I did just roll to see if she remembers
Izzy's conversation with THEO, and she really doesn't. I mean, you'd have
to roll for it for knowing what it. Yeah, that is, okay,
huh. I'm trying to think if Izzy would have even KNOWNU is he
knew what THEO had told her for sure? Yeah, but I don't remember
that conversation. Yeah, you get it. I mean think you can maybe
guess that it's sex an I was just gonna like, ye, just say
it out loud, but like the full name. But it was. Yeah,
I'm one of those sex equals power kind of things. Isn't everybody not
the way I do it? Honey? H mm hmmm, take your word
for it. Ah, good humor. We're on the right track now,
all right, let's think where do we gotta go? So THEO is off,
so it'll be a real quick my escalades out in the middle of the
forest somewhere by a cabin. That's convenient. How about you, smart field
trip? What can you do echo precisely? What can you do that coming
help the situation? I don't I think anything. I think hmm, I
think she made me wrong. Well, as my would say, you're worth
something, because God don't make no junk. It's not God to shoose something
else. Well, well, I think you're fine just the way you are.
Thanks. Well, does anyone else know what fucking time it is?
Because my phone's on the Fritz. It's telling me three different things. Apparently,
is he didn't think that things like watches or coats or trousers were important.
Well, that's what I was gonna say. We keep Duck inside the
rabbit for a minute. And last time I was in there, magic me
up this shirt because I wanted it well, matched me up something shitty to
begin with, because I was making fun, but then it eventually it gave
me this. So maybe we can step in there, drink, figure out
what our next step is. That idea is really appealing to me right now
because I enjoyed the cocktails but I don't and maybe that will help you a
little slowest down. But other option if we have, I mean, we
can get the uber. I mean, the one person who does Uber in
this town. I wonder what that would cost a grand there, it's about
an hour's drive, two hours. I'd be like fifty sixty bucks something like
that. Oh my wallet, so you're paying well, I mean I have
an Uber. I work in the city, so I don't think I've ever
had money. You've never had money. I know girls like you in my
industry, they don't need money. You're right. I'm sorry. I was
a joke. Bad joke. Mm hmm, drink. Wait you are you
able to talk to it all? You like completely separated? Now, I
don't. I don't know. Like some things have, like an instruction manual,
Not many of us get instruction manuals. You kind of you kind of
plunge into it and you kind of learn as you go. That's true.
So do you like, I don't know, can you like try? They're
just concentrating and seeing if you can somehow try? Yeah, I mean,
dam have you seen people do this before? Or is this like why I
have to do it? Oh? Yeah, There's been a not used for
this particular reasoning, but there's been definitely times where I've witnessed that a type
of yeah you want, you want to give it work, and you might
be able to do it. Okay, Yeah, And I'll kind of stare
down at the pavement because I don't I don't want anything to distract me.
But I don't think closing my eyes will help. And I'm just trying to
imagine Bria, but Bria as I saw her in the veil when we first
met. Okay, riis version. It makes me feel sick to even think
about it, But I don't think Bria will help right now. Okay,
so you're thinking of her, but it's making you not feel good when you
think about her. It's making me scared. Okay, go ahead and roll.
Mhm. Okay. The world around you darkens, almost like you're gonna
pass out, which I don't think you've ever done before, and you find
yourself standing in the veil. Before you is a tall, willowy, shadowy
creature with a large, wicked, grinning mouth, lots of teeth. Can
I hear it in my head? Is it like the others? No,
it's not saying anything. You don't hear anything. Silent. That's a disconcerting
feeling. Being back here is like having a blanket wrapped around and do you
like? Everything's fine? But then this realization that it's quiet and this one
won't talk to me, and it doesn't look right? Can I help you?
I'm I'm looking for Bria Harris. She's not here right now? Why
I'm in the veil? Huh? Do I recognize? Do I recognize what
this is? Yeah? Do you really not recognize me? I just want
to see if I remember Busy and Briar in the cabin. Wow, mhm,
yeah, this isn't the same one right where it is. I don't
think you know that. M. You know there's two of us in a
way, two of you or us I'm the butcher. Oh huh, it
was one of those out there as well. What can I help you with?
She gave you a chance at a new life. What are you doing
back here? Trying to find a way to save it? We'll end it
whatever needs to happen. She's trying to do that too right now. She's
looking for a way to get you all there with a dog. M.
Do you not want her to? I just want there to be balanced.
Smart? Can you hear them the others here? I can't hear them anymore.
The reason you can't hear them miscause you were given life. I hear
everything, So you're not alive. This is where I'm from, like you
were once. I'm an echo. You're a real echo now. I don't
know if it was the right choice. Is it not what you wanted?
What she wanted? What is he wanted? I didn't know what I am
anymore? Or whatever you manifest, whatever you choose anything. When you stepped
out of here, when you grew your long red hair, that was your
choice, as is your choice now to do what you want out there or
do you want to come back. I don't think I can. I can't
hear them anymore. Yes, it's like you want to hear them. I
don't. I don't think i'd like what they said anymore. You have a
choice now to surround yourself with the voices you want to hear. Interesting that
I choose you, then it is maybe you missed me. Everything imbalance right
with the good comes the bad. M Well, this could be interesting.
I feel like she's looking for a way to bring you, but she has
to find the door first, and then she'll come back for you. If
I promise to balance it, will you help her? What do you mean
your grip on this reality is slipping echo You have maybe thirty seconds left.
I I don't think they understand. I don't think they understand that that it
has to be a balance. You get what you pay for. And they're
also keen to blame everybody. They'll soon learn it all comes at a cost.
And that's when you slip out and your vision returns and you're standing back
in the parking lot, And I think that's a good place to take our
break. Actually mm hmm, I just got actual full body chills when right
there. Yeah, so fucking good. Call you just a dog em little.
That's good. All right, I am here. Okay, we're gonna
take a quick break. Everybody will be back. If you have a Twitch
Prime and you haven't considered using it, please consider using it on one of
these fabulous broadcasters. It is also September, so if you haven't sub to
them before, it's half off for you, but they get the full amount,
so you know, maybe consider doing that for them as well. And
if you want to support Table Story, one of the best ways you can
do that is head over to our patreon. We have character sheets for you,
adventures for you and your table, and you can make NPC's for your
favorite show, including this one. And there are some other cool stuff on
there, like a really adorable video of wax Cat Boo booo go now it's
bo that's it. That's all I got. Okay, so we're going to
take a break. Stretch your legs, go to the bathroom, wash your
pist mittens, and we shall return. Welcome back, everybody. Thank you
so much for waiting. I hope your break was amazing. We're going to
dive right back in, and we are joining Briar and Emma in the veil.
Briar, when you step through, I'd say, initially, you're gonna
feel a little bit of a tug because you close the curtain behind you,
right uh huh, Okay, you will feel sort of like a tug that
somebody else has entered your space without permission. Can I incognito, like listen
to the voices or tell ask the voices to tell me who came in?
Does that make sense? Yes, it makes sense, But I'm trying to
think of how I can word this without feeding you anything. You can actually
do both of those things. There are two separate things. Do you want
to eavedrop yourself? Or do you want to ask the voices to tell you
who it was? Kind of want to eavesdrop? Okay, go for it
then okay ooh okay, So when you try to easedrop a very oh,
describe what it's like when you feel the presence of the butcher over your shoulder.
It feels like that feeling you get when someone's watching you. Yeah,
and so it's like the goosebumps and hair on your body kind of you're more
aware of everything, and you just feel like someone's eyes are looking at you.
Then when you look, a person turns away, or or it's just
dark because this is a veil. Yeah yeah, so it's just it's a
feeling of just not comfort. It's unsettling. Okay, So this happens almost
immediately when you step into the veil. But when you look behind you,
there's nothing there. It's just darkness. But this is your sandbox. You
know that the butcher is handling it. Since I know that the butcher's handling
it, I'm just gonna press on because we ought to get to grand theory.
Okay, am I I need you to roll for me as you enter
the veil. That's my super serious role. This is a sniff roll no
why okay, okay, you want me to tell you that role Satan?
All right, well i'll let you know when that role comes. Thank you,
thank you? Oh oh god, it was not that yeah. Well,
actually this one was kind of important as well, but awesome. Uh
this place. The first time you went through, when you were holding Trick's
hand or Henry's hand and Ryer's hand, you kind of felt okay, but
the moment you step through this time, oh, you can see are many
many doors, some close, some far away. They look like they come
up on a hill. Everything down at your feet is kind of moving,
but you can't see it yet. You can feel it, and then when
you look up you kind of see it out of the corner of your ear'm
maybe moving like mist or fog. And then you look back down and everything
still because it's darkness. This whole place is extremely unsettling. All the smells,
everything is very strange. All the sounds for you here are very strange.
It's like you can hear someone ordering a coffee and then also someone sobbing
at a hotel bedroom, Like you can hear all of these things faintly at
the same time. I'm gonna shmack my hands over my ears really fast and
kind of just look at Brier and be like, this is terrible. Why
it's not where we went before? Oh my god? Is that sex?
Are people? Is that a baby? Are people having sex near a baby?
Smells like coffee? What is this? Oh my god, Briar,
I hate it. Okay, just focus on Okay here, I'm gonna start
looking is moving? Oh my god? Mind the door that I brought her.
Other Version two oh, okay, go ahead and roll for me.
I want to see if I can show you something, Emma, all right,
whatever, I just really need to get out of this room. It's
can you not hear that? This is the It's like we're in a mall.
Oh my god, yeah, I can hear. Just you got to
learn to like tune it out a little bit. I have dog ears now.
I don't think I can do that anymore. Oh oh my god.
You see a door kind of reveals itself to you? Is it the same
door? Do I remember it? It looks different. Can I shush the
voices for her? Not really, simply because the voices that she's hearing is
actually voices of the real world outside. But she's hearing the parts that people
hide. I think that they're either ashamed of or that they don't put forth.
Is that something I would know? You do know that? Now?
Yes, okay, this is your sandbox. Yeah. So if I open,
I'm going to just go up to that door and I'm just gonna crack
it, and I'm gonna look within like a little sliver looking for it.
I don't necessarily want to show her her dog version running. I want to
show her where I brought the other her. Okay, it opens to let's
find out. I rolled a sixty six. It opened to a very dark
city. Have either of you traveled, Emma or Briar? Me? I?
Have you traveled in your lifetime before this whole shit show happened? Oh?
No, Briar's from Maine, and so she drove here when she left
her parents' house. Okay, like cross country to not cross country, but
she drove however far that distance would have been. Okay, But you've never
left the country, either of you. No, I'm Auk has not left
the area. Okay, this is totally a foreign city to you. You
don't recognize this at all. There are very very tall buildings, lots of
them, sky scrapers, all close together. I closed the door. There
is snow on the ground. You closed the door. Okay, yeah,
I closed the door. But I think about all the possibilities behind all these
other doors. Yeah. Is that tempting to you right now? Brier?
Oh yeah, oh yeah, but it's kind of like a I can't do
that, but I could just disappear, just you, like you would slip
away through one of these doors and leave everybody to deal with the osmis.
There's a part of me that likes that idea, but there's the other side
of me that won't let that happen. The guilt would consume me on the
other side of the door. Okay, can I look one more time since
Emma's not like yelling about the voices, to see if I can find the
door or am I at a chances for that? I don't play it that
way, go for it, but you'll make another attempt to go for it.
You see a door, it's different from the last one. Yeah,
I know it's not the right door, but I want to peek in it
anyway to see what's behind it. Okay, let's see. Oh when you
open this door, Hey girls, a dir I'm naking in here. What
are you doing? When you open this door? It is too a destroyed
city. Everything's apocalyptic kind of thing. Yep, it's not the same city
you just saw. But there are cars kind of stalled in the middle of
the road. Some of their doors are open. There's grass growing in the
in the road, like in the middle. Like it's come up. It's
been so long. I'll close the door. I was looking for something for
you, but I can't find it. Right now. I guess maybe later,
can you uh smell rain? I don't know if I could find it
later, I'll show you. It's better to show you than to explain it.
Okay, all right, rain, brain smell. She didn't whatever rain
smell. I'm going to attempt to try to smell the athmore rain. Now,
okay, this is this is your moment. We need some busses in
the chat, need some bus fires. Please can just do it. Okay,
So describe what this is like. You do have to transform into your
spectral hound form to be able to use this ability. Okay, So go
ahead and describe what this is like as you transform, and then you find
this, uh this door. Okay. So I don't think Emma knew she
was going to transform. I think that kind of took over when she because
it was probably a difficult task, and so she probably was like, all
right, I'm gonna smell and then just exploded as she does, into piles
of guts and maggots and whatnot, now undulating on the already undulating floor.
No, you can't see them. They disappear as they fall off the bar
of the darkness. That's right, that's all right. And then she emerges,
and her spectral form for those who have not seen Lilith and her true
beauty, is this enormous imagine like a pit bowl jacked on steroids, but
all the bones are poking out of the skin everywhere, and there's like maggots
and just like dead flesh sluffs off her as she moves. She's just like
an undulating mass of rot all the time, basically, and bugs and lots
of maggots. And she has these huge, blowing red eyes that just bleed,
and her eyes bleed and her mouth bleeds and her ears bleed. She
has teeth like an anglerfish, just like these enormous hook so her mouth can't
really shut. It's just like stuck open, breathing heavily all the time.
And instead of drool, it's just like blood oozes blood and maggots just like
ooh's out from between the teeth. And I think she'd kind of start to
do the shaking, kind of flickering in and out if you were to look
at her. You can't really see her, like you can't. She's like
a shadowy right too, right, Yeah, she's gonna blend into this darkness.
I was kind of wondering if I'm gonna get stuck. I don't know.
We'll see, she's definitely part of this, whatever this is, She's
part of it, and so you can't look at her like she's flickering in
and out of sight and in and out of existence kind of. And then
she'll probably kind of just like her head will be shaking really bad and just
kind of like look back at Briar and then look forward and then just start
to move, leaving what would be a trail of maggots in flesh. But
now, Lilith, when you do this, when you look back to see
Briar, you don't see Briar. You see a very tall shadow with two
heads where Briar was standing. And you see eyes all around you in the
dark. You can see them now everywhere, everywhere you look, many millions
of eyes just staring at a tube blinking in the dark. I am unsettled,
but in spectral form, I don't think that comes across. She can't
really make expressions with the dead flesh and the missing tendons and whatnot on the
face. But because I'm still Lilith on the inside, I don't like lose
my mind. I'm horrified like this is like I don't really know what I
look like. I don't know that I'm a big scary beast. So I'm
still me inside like oh shit, who's that? What's this? And I
think my instinct will be I'll probably walk forward to where I smell the door
and just like let out this disgusting growl like a dog, pointing like a
hunting dog kind of okay, and just growl until it appears well, you
can smell it. You can't see any doors, but you smell that this
is the spot where as you walk up behind this hound, which you can
kind of see, you know where she is. I don't want to speak
for this world in this veil that is sort of both of ours in this
way, but I think you know. So whether you see her or you
don't, that's totally up to you. But you know where she is.
So she leads the way to a set of five doors. I imagine that
I probably see her spectral form and I'm probably the two headed thing behind her.
Yes, and I'll follow her to the five doors, which one it's
gonna point her face down to the ground. This spot where they all seem
to smell like athemas Rain. I mean, technically there should be like a
million different doors here, but we're gonna go with five for the sake of
narrative. But just for people listening, there's like millions of choices. Can
you smell theo? Ooh, that's a good question, and we're gonna switch
scenes all right, THEO You are driving my good sir, heading down halfway
road? What are you thinking about while you're driving? Not too many loops?
Actually get to see her too late, too soon after reset? Okay,
maybe we can do it this time. Do you actually believe that?
Yeah, you wouldn't have accepted the deal if you didn't believe it. Role
for me, for you. Yes, you should also see a new option
as well, everybody. I'm just letting everybody know. You should see an
option down on the bottom next to secret role that says Eenie Meani. Does
everybody see that? No? I see a role or secret role? Okay,
if you do not, please hit the gear or the sorry the notepad
option right next to the music and click to see the Eenie Meanie roll in
the bar. Please I added that. Okay, but my secret role has
been done regardless. Okay, No, that's good. Secret role is good.
I need any meaning in a minute. Okay, what's the best memory
you have with Adisa studying, not rituals, not anything, just a quiet
moment together as a couple, kind of before all the madness, before the
she revealed who actually or what she could do, before I kind of understood
what I could do. Just the quiet. You know, the couple that's
been together forever that can just be happy sitting in silence. We hit that
early and it was just wonderful being able to be quiet and know that the
other person cared for the other one. I think he was reading Mesopotamian history
at the time. You're thinking about this as you drive, and you're hoping
maybe we can actually do it this time. And now I need you to
roll. And this is a big one. I'd like to declare a goal.
That's why I have That's why I said it. Okay, what is
your goal that you are declaring? Diseased pilgrim, I need to get to
grand theory. I need to be more specific. No, that works for
me, But I'm going to ask some follow up questions because there's some magic
at play here. What are you willing to trade to get there? I
already gave up everything, my life, my ability to be with her in
the end. Would you be willing to give that up? I thought I
already did. And if not, then yes, his goal is to save
her. Now that means, in no reality will you end up with your
future wife with Odisa? You're willing to trade that for her safety? Yeah,
he knew that's what the end was for him, But be sure of
it. Now, what about everyone else? If it meant saving her,
he'd give them up? Okay, go ahead and roll for you. He'll
do his pilgrim roll first sixty nine. Okay, now, just for the
people listening, go ahead and describe what the pilgrim role does. So he
did not succeed it, but it essentially lets him flip his role if it's
related to his goal specifically, so if it meant he'd need to drive to
get there and has to make a driving check rolls in ninety one, he
could make that nineteen. Yeah, if he succeeds on that, which he
did not. He did not THEO do you love Odisa? Yeah? More
than anything. When did you know that you loved her? The day she
smiled at him the first day in the at the university at the lecture.
Right, she at her lecture she gave Okay, wow, you went to
talk to her after a lecture just to compliment how she'd spoken and smiled.
All right, give me your big role, professor thirty eight. After you
think this through, you're driving for a couple of minutes. You're thinking about
what it was like being on the couch with her, in her presence,
where you could just be reading a book and then look up and see her
deep into her own book and just smile to yourself and think about how lovely
that is. You're thinking about that, and you're thinking about what you would
give to make sure she was safe at the end of all of this,
and what you would sacrifice and what you'd be willing to put aside, And
all of a sudden you're at a stoplight and a sign next you says,
welcome to Grand Theory. Good, I'm coming home back with Brier and Emma.
So you want me to smell THEO and not just pick a door,
That's what I'm thinking, but beast form. So it's so she's a too.
Do I hear Brier? Do I hear coming out of two headed?
Wonder? Yeah? You would hear her voice he language I do, yeah,
you do hear language yep in this. Okay, let me be specific,
because I know you're gonna take this and run with it. RP Wise.
It is because you are in this realm specifically you can hear her.
Oh okay. The only other voice you can usually hear in your spectral form
is the voice of your master. Okay, I am going to like snort
like I am upset with what she said, and I'm going to stalk behind
thing and see if I can push it with my head, just just nudging
it forward, like you choose the door, uose the door. It did
my part, choose the door, toutt my shit? And can I touch
her? Is she like solid? Oh? Yeah? Okay, So I'm
gonna use the entire huge flat front of my face and just slowly start to
nudge her forward. I know, but we need to find THEO in grand
theory. Still pushing, Well, she's pushing me. I want to try
listening to the echoes to see if Phil let me forguide us to the right
door. Okay, go ahead and roll for it. Two. Okay,
So the voices become clear to you that like initial whispering we cannot. Why
not? We do not know. We've never been outside. You have to
know at least which one. It's my timeline. They're quiet for a minute
that we know, and point us to the right door. All doors around
you except for one disappear swallowed up by the shadows. Thank you. I'll
walk over to it. I'm gonna trot ahead of her and look back like
you're welcome, and then go sit next to the door. Can I read
her thoughts in here? You can try? Did I roll for it?
Yeah? It's your playground, Jesus, yes you can with a four.
You absolutely can what you're thinking about, Lilith, You're welcome because I think
I did it. Yeah, I hear her think you're welcome. And I
turned my two heads to look at her, and in a way I kind
of roll my eyes a little bit. As I look back up at the
door. I'm hesitant because I don't feel confident that this is the right door,
Lilith. Can can you smell just things? I find? Sorry?
Like could you smell the professor if we open the door, just like a
waft of him? Can I use my normal smelly bullshit if we opened the
door. No, you would have to actually use the significant charge. Yeah,
okay, I'm gonna kind of like look down at the ground and think
about it for a minute and then just look up at her and be like,
that's that's some serious shit that I just recently did. Hi, I'm
just gonna go fuck it and I'm gonna open the door. Okay, go
ahead and roll for me twenty one. I try very hard to be a
neutral DM. I cannot in this moment. You said my timeline Brier's timeline,
correct, but you have moved into a different timeline. So perhaps you
would like to try a different door. I think you would know that.
Okay. So if I open the door, though all I did was open
the door, I didn't can go in it, which is why I had
you roll the twenty one. By the way she rolled a twenty one,
this is basically an intelligence check. So what I open the door and then
just instinctively go this isn't right. I don't think so. I think it
feels more like home to you than this one does. But maybe that's enough
to trigger the memory in you that you are looking for your timeline, which
is not the same as Blair's timeline. I'm gonna look at lilith. Just
give it a little sniff. All right, I'm gonna use my normal sniffy
shit and just see if I can pick up on anything. Okay, go
ahead and roll. You're old an eight. Yeah, you can smell really
well. You smell grass, You smell maybe a little bit of magic because
it is the parking lot of the lucky Rabbit. Oh no, sorry,
this is grand theory. Oh no, you smell grass, You smell fire.
Maybe you smell burning rubber and perfume. That's about it. You don't
smell the yo though. I'm gonna like blow air out of my nose really
quick and just backup out of it and walk away from it disinterested. That's
definitely he's Nope, Nope, not that one. We fucked stuck here forever,
will fare their eyes everywhere. Those are the veiled ones. Slam the
door. Do you look at it like? Do you study it to try
to remember it because that is where you are from? Well, since it's
grand theory, I you don't probably wouldn't care all that much, okay,
because I don't really feel like I have a home anymore. Yeah, okay,
because I killed another person that lives inside of me, So I don't
know that I can trust my instinct of what's home and what's not. Okay,
Okay, that makes sense to me. So I'm gonna talk to the
voice, the echoes and the voices again. Okay, if you can.
That's not the right one. What do you mean you bring the other doors
back? Please? They do they appear before you? Okay, lilaslet's is
let's just open them one by one and hope to God you smell for you.
If you're okay with that, just shrug my shoulders and one big fat
bot fly maggot kind of falls out and just walk forward like what have we
got to lose? And I just like I imagine with the two heads,
I like slunk over to the next door and open it, just kind of
nod both my heads to give a good smell. All right, you can
roll four times for me? Okay, I'm very I'm very uncomfortable with the
two heads. Yeah, it's she's if you were not in spectral form,
she'd look just like herself. But right now you see two You see one
long, willowy shadow with two heads, and it's very fucked up. All
right, Okay, can I get some bus fires. Can I get some
bus fires? It's a bus fire? Is in the chat right, Gods
of dice, suckle my dark skin? One, two, three, four,
Oh my god, the progressively got worse. I do see a sixty
nine and a ninety six, and that it's actually that's super fucked you.
When she starts opening these doors, maybe on the third door, you think
he might smell something like no, no, in fact, that's not it
at all. None of them smell like you. I don't smell him,
are you? Are they on our side? Keep looking around it? All
the eyes, yeah, most of them, most of them comforting. Okay,
I don't know what to do. It's like, should going there?
Maybe we should have asked that he kept talking about a sanctuary, sanctuary and
a bar a bar? Do we have any bars? Apparently there's more like
the Lucky Rabbit. I'm gonna try to think about our town. Is there
any places that I would know about that were like empty lots or just like
random parking lots that kind of looked run down that maybe I'd be like in
wait in athmore other than let's find out other than the Lucky Rabbit parking lot
that you know, is there there might be one or two more. There's
an old abandoned school. There is also an old abandoned asylum as well that
has an empty parking lot. We could always try out the old asylum.
Sounds like a fitting place for THEO. You can do this, Emma.
If you use another significant charge, you can find anyone anywhere in the world
that is your ability. You don't want. I have two significant charges?
Yeah, zeke, do you have any charges here? I'm sorry, Am
I gonna make you go crazy if I use all my significant charges? No?
He just has to you. Yeah, okay, so I can be
under him and we're cool. Okay, yeah, yeah, I'll get it
another try. I will remind you to gain more significant charges. You have
to eat people. That's right, oh, dude, Like I already cross
that threshold. Were good? Now? We good? Now? Okay,
we got a feed? All right? Okay, just that hard part is
dumb, baby, We're hungry. Daddy gonna get you a snack, okay,
which I am a snack looking like a snack. Okay. So discontent
with all of this and highly uncomfortable with the situation, I think Emma would
just give in and do another big sniff and see if she can find THEO.
Okay, go ahead and roll. This is a big one right now.
It's fine, it's fine. It didn't even roll, Katie. Come
on, why I rolled in ninety four? Oh? I don't think I
do. Do you want to check before I say what I'm gonna say.
I think I have a flip roll. Hold on, let me look through
my book. I think I still have a whatever it's called that lets me
flip my role the hunch roll. Yeah, I think I have a hunt
roll way fucking back, because I've never used one, but you gave me
one of the very very beginning. Would I still have that? Yes?
I will let you have that because it's in here. But I've never used
a hunt roll. I just know you gain me one. Everybody has one.
I have actually a ticker that tells me who has them left, So
you're good. She do have one? Can they hunt roll that flip to
a forty nine? Yep? It's a forty nine? God? Yeah,
you think you smell him at door two and three, but you can't differentiate
which one between tours two and three. Yep? All right, I'm going
to walk over to them and look between both of them and I'm going to
look back at Briar machine and think anyway you could two head this because it's
one of these both in my heads, not at you. I figured you
look malleable. I'm just gonna kind of back away to like a watching distance,
but also still pretty close, because she's less scary than the millions of
eyes around me. I kind of want to leave it up to chance,
but I'd like to roll to see if I can deduce which door is the
correct door. I will tell you this. If you leave such a major
thing up to chance, which is exactly what Eiris would do, I will
reward you. Yes, I would like to do this. Okay, please
roll the Eenie Meani button, new button. Okay, I need busses in
the chat here. Oh yep, okay, so you roll the two.
I'm gonna make this super transparent by also rolling the Eenie Meani button. Hmm.
Yeah. Can everybody see that, just so that I don't get yelled
at later? Can no one see that? Okay? So yeah, you
pick a door and you open it, and you see. Welcome to grand
theory. I'm gonna look back at Emma. You stay here, absolutely not
you insane. It's a problem. We don't should leave me with them.
They'll keep you safe, somaly somewhere on our side. Was that a joke?
Help me? It was a joke. Yeah, just like you know,
curl up in a little ball and they'll come give you pets. You
probably shouldn't leave her here. I think a part of you knows that you
can if you want to, but I should thought I should tell you.
I'm gonna walk between her legs and do that dog curl like around the leg
like no, no rubbing my sluffy maggot things on her. Miss All right,
I'm gonna step through and I'll pat my leg. I'm gonna trot right
past her. No, don't go too far. I'll spin around and stop.
Brian, you can have a major charge. What you left it up
to chance and you willingly walked through the wrong door, You can have a
major charge. We are going to switch scenes. Oh, back in the
parking lot of the Lucky Rabbit. You guys have been waiting a long time.
Yeah, twenty minutes at least. Well, since we don't have a
way of getting anywhere. She left the door closed behind her. In my
car'sm I a either we have a drink and wait, I do have me
and go to Yeah, I want to join me on that. Well,
I can't go back into the bar jazz, I want to come back around
again. I don't. I don't blame her, So we can go.
I can go do that? What do you think I go? And I'm
trying to think about what that could mean and whether it's a good idea that
I'm there or not. And I'm just drawing a blank. I just want
to be somewhere worn right now, and I want to go where somebody leads
me. Making choices like that feels very abient, and I'm okay, oh
you're good. Well I look at the like this like the sun, since
I have no other means of telling exact time. Is the sun like high
in the sky? Is it like more towards the horizon like sunset? Or
that's pretty high in the sky. Okay? Do I see him looking up
at the sun like that? Yeah? Of course, all right. Well
I can't tell you what time it is, but I can tell you a
long agun until the sun goes down. I don't know if that helps or
not. Sure. All what you do is I learned this in Scouts.
Eat your fingers is fifteen minutes. Put your hand out and put on the
horizon and then start stacking your hands like this, adding an hour until you
reach the sun. And that's a long approximately until the sun goes down.
All right, what do we got when I start like doing that? Like,
yeah, absolutely, you can't every every like every like handful is an
hour. Yeah, and then so as you're doing you've got about roughly four
hours left. It is February. The sunsets pretty early, okay, so
it's I mean, it's closed if not pastime, so on is it?
Though usually done? Run here at this time? What time? Four thirty?
It's the first thing? Four yeah, four thirty. It can't set
it for thirty. Nowhere does it set of four thirty excepts like Alaska,
Alaska, Michigan. It does, does it not? It gets dark at
four thirty. Michiganders in the chat can represent Michiganders. Wheize your hands,
yeah, four thirty. Yes, it does, Thank you so much,
Thank you so much. It absolutely does. This time of year, yeah,
February. Yeah, same, Well, okay, it's February, so
maybe I'll give you five thirty an extra hour. But it does set very
early in the winter. There. Okay, so we got we got lots
of time where this even happens. Yeah, that sounds of it. Okay,
Well I checked my phone just to see if I got any text messages
or whatever you do the one like I can help you with your problem,
and then Phil I text them back. Yeah, okay, where do you
want to meet when? And when? The text comes back instantly, Oh,
I thought you had changed your mind. It's been a while. But
yeah, I'm I'm here, I'm in the town. I'm available. I
can meet you anywhere you need me of a car question mark, Yeah,
come pick me up at the corner of blank and blank wherever we are?
Okay? Are you going to stay here in the parking lot of the Lucky
Rabbit when you tell him? Are you telling him to come here? You
said this is on a street that doesn't exist in this town, didn't you?
It exists, but the building doesn't exist. It's an empty parking lot.
Okay, but the street exists. Okay, well if the street,
if the street exists, then yeah, and I'm going to let them know
I have a couple of friends. They're just going to be uh what's the
word for it, like off camera they're not going to be Yeah, they're
just going to be watching. Is that a session? Uh, he replies
back, sure, man, you're calling the shots? Cool? How long?
Et a two minutes actually a couple of blocks away at a coffee shop.
Okay, see you soon. So I let them know, all right,
I got someone gonna come pick me up, us up, take us
to wherever we're going. Just to let you guys know, Uh, you
don't have to accompany me into the event, so to speak. You can
hang out outside or whatever, but you're fully, fully allowed to come in.
Oh. What's what I've been told is that in order for me to
get my power, I have to perform these certain acts in a certain way
or with certain people. And as you might imagine, they are sex acts.
So if I were to say you're coming to an adult film shoot,
I wouldn't be that far from the truth. In fact, that would be
the truth. So if you have any problems with that, now's the time
speak up. Do I know what that is? I'm assuming I do.
I mean, because of what shadows are. Yeah, it's it's up to
you at this point. But yeah, okay, And if you don't know
the reason why this is necessary is because in order for me to keep a
keep a leash on Lili, I have to be stronger than her. And
I want to make sure that I'm never not stronger than her. And I
don't know if she's using up her power and whatever, but I just want
to make sure I got a good hold on it. You know what I'm
saying. You spend a lot of effort justifying yourself. Why. I don't
know if it's justifying. I'm just laying out the facts. I'm not embarrassed
about what I do. I'm known worldwide as Trick Magnum, star of Bigfoot
one through five, one through four, He never got to make five,
could stop shooting in the middle. There we had a problem with an actress.
Yeah, Echo completely remembers the films that is he watched That was a
forty one though. Yeah, it's something my easy though. Oh okay,
what's your easy? Fifty five? Okay? Oh yeah, I see we've
seen some of my work, have you in a way, Well, that's
what we're gonna do. And I've been told in order to mm hmm get
the big, the big powerful stuff, I have to recreate things from my
past with people that either look or have something in common with someone that I
originally did that with. And uh, my friend, the woman told me
about the industry and whatnot. Richard on Phil, as I know, found
a willing participant, and I'll just let the rest kind of explain itself.
You want to watch to be here in two manus, so he should be
here pre time now, Okay, if you think it's necessary, sure,
yeah, I definitely don't need to come in and watch that. I'll be
good, all right. I'm kind of pondering that. I'm wondering whether I
want to see that. I think I kind of do. Hm. Okay,
the car pulls up. It is a sedan. I kind of wave
him down. Oh yeah, okay, he pulls up. Man, he
looks just like Phil. So what does Phil look like to you? Well,
back in the day, this was like it had to be like at
least twenty years ago. Yeah, so what did twenty years ago Phil look
like? He was like very like like picture a California surfer, tan blonde,
but a little older, a little bit like still still trying to catch
waves, but like a little bit a little bit less like it's more wrinkles,
more sun damage, that kind of stuff, but still looks really good.
Has graduated. He's trying to trying to graduate out of actually doing like
starring in it. I kind of followed his career path, moved out of
starring in in porno too, making his own torn and stuff like that.
So this dude like he looks out of place here. He doesn't look Midwest,
he doesn't look anything like this place. But uh he pulls up and
I just I just kind of blink my eyes at him, and wow,
nailed at that time, Huh, it looked just like him, you know.
Yeah, So he tells me even told me what to wear. Can
you believe he wore this scrap? I certainly can't. I told him I
made fun of him for years for that stuff. Yeah, well I'm making
fun of him now. All right, up in the shotgun if you guys
want to get back seat. I hear him him talking about he told me
what to wear and taking the piss out of it, and I sort of
looked down at my outfit and go, m sounds about right, m h.
And wait to see where Brian gets in. I'll let him go first.
Well, all right, I guess I'll just sit in on the back
then yeah, okay, and then you slide in on the other side,
closes the door. He looks at you. My name's Doug. Doug.
Yeah, true. So where are we going, Drick? Well, the
first scene we shot ever was in a basement on a couch. So you
got a basement. I do a fifteen fifteen minute drive from here, maybe
twenty. We're going to go to my We're going to go to my place.
Now, did he tell you the first scene was yeah, he told
me it was just me, and the second scene is me and you.
Right, yeah, he told me. Okay, man, I don't even
know if I have an outfit that looks like my old one. Trying to
think of what I was wearing. Probably some light, some sort of like
heavy metal, black tea or something. Then you have a copy shorts.
What's that? You have a copy of it? Oh yeah, at home.
I'm just trying to remember from memory. Huh. Yeah. No,
I've got my video library in a place of a place of honor downstairs.
I watched The Lucky Rabbit kind of reced off into the distance and feel warmer
but strange, and as we're driving, like, sorry, okay, I
was like that was not me, Like I have an inside a vehicle sound,
but that's not it. No, I think someone's doing their lawn or
something. But now I tried, like, as we're driving a long trick
things to like to like to do his garage, and he's wondering, like
what vehicles might be in there this time when we get home, Like would
there be a beat up professor's car with a boy are you in the truck?
Maybe? Or like two escalades for some reason, like it could be
anything, you know, it could be empty, who knows. And as
we're driving along, i'd i'd say to Doug, hey, is this your
car? Dog? Or do you borrow this? This is my car?
Why? Well, I was wondering if while we're doing this shoot or whatever,
and these two wanna take a leave to go get food or coffee or
whatever, do you mind if they borrow your car? I think I think
echo back, there might need some new some new duds. He looks away
from the road and looks at you for a second, studying you don't pay
extra. I don't think I'm getting paid. Isn't that the rule? That's
right? Forgot about that it's your first I don't think this would go against
the rules, though, if I paid you for something completely else. This
has nothing to do with our thing. This is just a favor for them.
What if I don't want money? Okay, now we're negotiating. This
is something I'm good at. So what do you want? I'm looking for
a type of liquor, are you now? What? Might that be?
A type that isn't here anymore? Okay, but I hear you know where
to get it. I might at that. So if I were to provide
you with this, you would let my friends use your car for a little
while? Yeah, I would? All right, we'll burn that bridge when
we come to it. I'm thinking about what they just said. I'm thinking
back to what was said in the bar, and I want to test a
theory. It's a real long shot and I don't think I think it'll work.
It's worth trying. But in my head, I just keep hearing Aris
gets what eris wants and hair saying you can be whatever you want to be.
And I want to see if i'm I can be wearing different clothes.
Oh, okay, go ahead and roll for me. Yeah, ONETI one,
what are you thinking about wearing? M like ripped jeans but not like
the not the tight restrictive kind, the kind with some stretch to them,
big pair of chunky boots, a black top, and a leather jacket.
You think really hard for maybe fifteen thirty seconds, but nothing happens. Weather
shot. We drive to Trick's house. Is anybody else doing anything in the
ten to fifteen minutes it takes to get there, No, just pondering that.
Yeah, you're trying to That has to be something in it, But
I can't figure out what the idea of asking for permission feels weird and dangerous?
Trick or Henry? Should I say, well, I guess your trick
right now, aren't you? Yep? Are you nervous? Am I nervous?
Yeah? No, man, this feels right at home. Okay.
Even the magic drawing part of it, the magic wedding, the fact that
you'd be, you know, getting a charge out of this doesn't make you
a little nervous, It's okay. If it doesn't, I'm just curious.
I'm gonna say, no, man, this is like this is like,
uh, if someone said, like you get magic power from drinking glass of
water and you do that every day, You're just like, all right,
no big deal. Yeah, Okay, all right, are you excited?
Yeah, a little bit to go back and recreate the first Yeah, Okay,
I'm like, this is very like I'm thinking back to the time,
like I was a nervous kid, like no more than nineteen years old,
figuring out like what I want to do. Someone noticed me and said,
hey, you should try this out. Got to get to make a lot
of money doing it. You got you got talent in more ways than one.
Does that make you feel powerful? Yeah? In in that it makes
me feel like I'm in control of something for the first time in a long
time, Like this is shit I can do, and this is shit I
know about. Okay, we pull up to tricks driveway. He navigates the
way. I believe you'll have to get out to open the garage if you
want to open the garage or are you gonna have him just park in the
driveway. No, I'll let him in the garage. I gotta I gotta
go put in the the code on the garage. Okay, since I don't
have my car my I go in there, like up to the garage door,
like the you know, the barrier or the wall or whatever. I
watch that very closely. You can't. You're in the car. You can't
see him go up to things and punch in a code. But okay,
so you go in to like punch the code in the garage, and as
you go to do that, and as you finished typing in the code,
you feel the connection between you and your hound. He's gone. And that's
where we're going to end today's session today. Excuse me? Yeah, what
puppy. The connection is gone with no warning or or or inkling of this
happening, It's just gone. Pebe, do you realize what I've gone through
this episode and you're going to pull this shit on me. I didn't do
it. I didn't do it. They did it. They walked through another
door. Yell at them, not me. Yeah, I am husarious.
I know the name, I know the title of the damn episode. Blame
Brier. Yeah, it's not my fault this time. Fair? Oh no,
