The show you're about to listen to was originally a live streamed actual play on
twitch dot tv slash on made Gaming. Arise millions and welcome to this unmade
gaming production. Join us on our adventures as we take a jump to the
left, a step to the right, and time work all around the multiverse
to find out exactly how to save the town of Garrett in this original tale
from the Loop actual play Atari Twilight Rollout, my friends for the last time,
Welcome to Atari Twilight. This is episode twelve of our Rollout season,
the second part of our series finale. Before we go forward, some mechanics,
I will let you know this. I will need somebody to roll leadership
for us, and Rob already gets four dice for his leadership pool. I
wonder why. The other thing that I will say is this, Michigan's that
come in this evening for the series finally are at my discretion. I may
use them to make things worse, I may use them to make things better.
I already have one still banked. That one's in play, my friends,
If you would please go to your Spotify playlist, please go down if
you would, all the way are close to the bottom track number twenty four
separate ways by Journey. I don't know why this came up, but boy,
oh boy, is it timely. I will put forward that since last
week happened, that Shannon has to rule leadership I already did, oh great
successes. So as Rob has a pool of four dice to use, Shannon,
you two have a pool of four dice to use. Each of your
respective pools cannot be used for your own character, but they may be given
to any of the other characters or any role, and in any amount.
You can give all four dice for one role, split them up however you
would like for any other subsequent role. My friends, we've had our previous
previously on. We do not need a further recap. This is the second
part of our series finale. You are looking down upon the Loop, the
absolute culmination of everything and everyone that has led you to this point. It
stretches before you. You know. At the very center lies version of Mitch,
an evil, older version that if everything you've learned is correct, is
held bend when destroying everything. For reasons unknown between you and him, Evil
Mitch has arranged for every one of your foes from season one and season two,
and all points in between north, southeast, east and west to be
between you and him, to simply buy him time. Your friend Ben,
upon being retrieved from where he was held prisoner by evil Mitch, has informed
you that this is his plan. He doesn't believe that you can make it
to him in time. He believes you will argue, He believes that you
will be distracted. He believes he knows you better than you know yourselves.
And at this, as you are all together for the last time, you
stand with Ben Mackenzie, doctor Holter Arkaville, a good version of one of
your foes inside the Loop, and Jimmy main Street. Jimmy a former peer
of yours who has been stuck in a back and forth time travel, now
an older man looking at you, ready to help. But my friends,
it is this always has been. The only way to go forward is to
go back. And for the last time, I ask you, as you
stare down upon all of this, the final objective, what do you do?
Shannon? What's the plan? Is that what it feels like when you
guys ask, we gotta me and Rob need to go on our own and
for us, you guys need to back up Mitch so he can get to
it. You can get where he needs to go. Jimmy comes out over
to Yu Shannon, Arkaville, the bad one. He's keeping everyone in an
old munitions bunker. He converted it was his into a command station. It's
just outside of the Nexus. It's it's on our way there. I don't
know. You see that he's very confused. You notice that there is dried
blood in both of Jimmy's ears. Things are changing. I can't remember the
right way, but I was there. I was a prisoner when I was
younger, when I was Chris and I dove and they couldn't keep me there.
And but Maggie's there, and your dad, and pretty Serge is there,
and Jay and I think there might be more about I can't remember,
but we gotta get minched to the end. Are you okay? And she
like kind of points? Are you feeling off? I'm just dizzy. Things
are changing. I'm remembering good stuff but remembering cloudy stuff too. I Ben
steps forward and puts his hand on Jimmy's shoulder. Shannon, they want us
to split up, but they need to he needs to keep Mitch back.
I don't know what that means. But if we get held up. If
Mitch doesn't make it to the end, then it's over. So you don't
think we should split up? I don't know. And you can see that
Ben is just as torn as Jimmy. He doesn't seem to be as befuddled
and confused, but he it seems like he was given information and he has
accepted this information as fact. And Ben has been repeating it quite a bit.
We just got his get to the end. He has to get there.
If he doesn't get there, if we get held up and it's over,
it's over. Hey, hey, Ben, Yeah, how do you
know? I overheard him? Man, they were they were talking, and
I heard him the evil version and he points over Georgia that one and knew
where where were they? Where were they talking? Where they had me?
Man? Where they where they had me? Who? Who was I there?
But but but bat m no, not bad mentioned in time? Man.
Mitch starts mumbling and like pacing not far, but like you know,
like four or five feet back and forth. Uh. That's really suspicious,
right, is anyone else right? Any? I mean they could have done
it on purpose, yes, that's yeah. But well, if you're if
you're like a like if you think you're a mastermind and you have a prisoner.
Wouldn't it be really convenient to just slip the prisoner the thing and then
he get scapes or gets free or whatever and then tells everyone And that's exactly
where you want. Yeah, that's true. He bad, bad, bad
bad guys get caught monologueing all the time, though, Ben shaking his head.
No, man, it's the truth. I know it's the truth.
I know it. They weren't lying to me. I know it, and
I trust me. Man, you gotta trust me. I make a role.
Yeah, you can make a roll. You can use an empathize.
Here, we'll see if you want to suss something out about Ben. Ben,
you just ga successes. Ben is telling you the truth, but he's
leaving something out. I thought you overheard it. Yeah, Man, you
just said they wouldn't lie to you. No, I mean they wouldn't say
it around me to lie to me, to get me to tell you all
that. Ben, what else aren't you telling us? You can be honest?
Because right now, at this point, the more information we have,
the better. Shanny. You've gotta trust me. You've got to trust me.
We gotta get mitched to the end. It's the only way I can't.
I told you all I can so telling us whatever it is that you
know that you can't tell us. Shouldn't it change things? Though I tell
you it will, you won't go forward. But if you just whisper it,
I'll trust fun. HI believe you, buddy. He starts to cry,
all right, what's the plan. I guess we'll stick together. Okay,
all right, lead on. She actually steps away. Just give me
a second, Jerry. She kind of ushures very over in as whispering as
of a tone as she can. When we first met, you were going
to do something that would change you. But I think we need to change
this time. I don't even have a gun, no, but I think
you're capable of more than you believe. You need to protect Ben, of
course, at all costs, because I think Ben is going to be part
of what makes or help Smitch make it all the way. I could be
wrong, but if there's something that he's holding back, then we need to
make sure that he makes it too. I think I understand what you're saying.
You're the gun, Jerry. You're you're the gun. Oh I didn't
understand it at all. Okay, Okay, We're all gonna be okay,
right, Shannon's lying, she doesn't believe that, but I don't think Jerry
can see that. All right, well let's go. Then Shannon's going to
lead the way. And with Shannon taking point, you would all hear Ben
just whisper thank you. And as you all start walking, please go to
your Spotify playlist. I would like you to go to track number three,
Little Toy Soldiers by Martika. And as you dip down into the valley that
is the Loop, several things start to come into focus. There is a
war raging in different parts of the loop, not in your immediate section as
you kind of enter into the area and through the blasted gait you saw last
session. But around you there are in many ways torn and dismembered bodies of
those those green creatures, those gremlins that just seemed to be in various states
of destruction. You even see large metallic versions of fallen Decepticons. They are
gray and cold. Fans would know them to be rumble and frenzy. Pulses
of intermittent light can be seen deep within the loop and in various buildings and
in the three large vents. This light with flash. There's no rhyme nor
reason to it. It's not sequential, and it's no pattern to it.
And around this entire space, sometimes encompassing half of one of these Gremlins or
one of these Decepticons is fused and burnt earth in a perfect circle. My
friends, roll me and investigate one for Rob. Mhm, Rob have my
only success, and none of us are paying attention. Yeah, okay,
So at this moment, those of you that have tuned your Mitchie talkies to
the kind of confiscated frequency of go one oh six point one, they crackle
to life, and you hear from a distance, almost like speaking through a
can or down a well. You hear Veronica Kirkshaw as she says the luke
is firing some type of orbital laser as an anti personnel defense mechanism. We
are trying to jam it, but devastators in the building. Optimist has fallen.
There's a crackle and a sputter, another crackle and a sputter, A
crackle and a sputter. It's firing, Rob. Time slows you hear Optimist's
voice. Rob. Look to the stars. A bolt of light white hot
is dropping from the heavens. Directly word. Ben frags my friend, this
was your wish? What do you do? M h. He's gonna grab
Ben at the back of the shirt and just tossing, but like a step
Todd, He's gonna put every ounce of his scrowning arms into this and pretty
much thrown to the ground. Being hurts better than being dead. You don't
have to roll for this. The rest of you see in the last moments,
this push of Ben mackenzie as Rob takes his place. Rob, you
have them flash, a flutter of a butterfly, a beating of a heart.
Do you say anything to your friends? Two? Lower one? H
h. It doesn't hurt you all see Rob ought turned to dust. Ben
starts screaming, no, it was supposed to be me. No wrong,
No, supposed to be me. What do you do? Uh? Mitch
is on his handsonies feudally scooping Robin too a pile. Jerry's dumbfounded for a
minute, but he's gonna forcefully step up to Ben and lift him up by
like the the scruff of his jacket and just start yelling, get up.
We have to move now. Shannon goes to Mitch and locks her arm into
his We have to go. He's not resisting, he's just carrying whatever he
can and crying. Jimmy just says as he snaps a salute where Rob fell,
gotta make it mean something. We gotta get mitched to the end.
H Jerry, You're gonna have to basically do the same with Ben he is.
He just keeps saying, We're supposed to be me, man, it
was supposed to be me. It was suposed to be b Jerry, was
supposed to be me. Wasn't supposed to be any of us. Let's go.
You all continue deeper into the loop, if you could please queue up,
if you would track number four by Don Henley. As you move deeper
into the loop, you see there is a entrance to a tunnel almost like
the top of the stairwell that has turned into a fortified bunker. Beyond it,
deeper into the loop, there is a war raging, a battlefield,
impossible explosions, and these lasers that are dropping from the sky seemed to frequent
this area with extreme precision and numerous attacks. In front of this subterranean tunnel
entrance stands Rick Rugan, Carl Baker, and a being covered in insects,
vaguely humanoid, my friends. The only way to advance is to take this
tunnel. Arcaville points it should lead you deeper in. It's just straight but
and he looks at the people that are standing there. George, I need
you to roll a comprehend or an investigate, and you may do somebody plus
two no successes. Again, that read out that seems to be just above
your power level on the right hand side of your screen is flittering and filtering
through, and it seems to be making sense, but nothing that you can
kind of put together. It's starting to almost form words that you shouldn't be
able to understand it if it's written in another language that you are slowly beginning
to be able to conjugate to learn, but you can't put it all together
again. If you want, if you have luck to spend, you have
pride to use, you can push. If you wish it's not something you
have to do, you can let the role stand. I'd like to use
luck. I feel like this is something I should know. Okay, well,
I guess we'll find out it's not meant to be. And again with
that use of luck, what I'm gonna say is the next opportunity I give
you for this one, and I'll like you'll, you'll, you'll be able
to get it, but it's gonna take a little time. This is something
that you'll now be able to under understand that you're focused on it, but
it's gonna take time. Jerry, you see them, Regan, your dad,
This creature. Ben is in your arms essentially, and he looks up
at you. If you're staying here, I'm staying too, man. What
do we do what we've always done? Save these assholes? And Jerry's going
to reach into his pocket and pull out of a bowl of pennies that he've
had for a really long time at this point, the papers all worn down
on the outside, and he's going to hand it back to bed, all
right, man, and he wraps his fist around the pennies. Jerry,
if you here's the bargain. If you engage them, I'll give the rest
of the group a plus two to sneak past. Yep, Yeah, that's
a bargain. Jerry would take everybody. Ben will refuse to leave Georgia or
will refuse to leave Jerry's side. If this is what you plan to do,
the rest is on you. Guys, say your last words to Jerry
Baker. I think Georgia pull out his his iconic item, red Apple cigarettes
and he gives one to uh to Jerry and lights of for him. Smoke
him if you got him, cheer, He's going to spend his last moments
looking foolish and coughing because he doesn't smoke. Remember, God, good,
good, God, good God, damn it, why are you being polite
to me? So now I'm just kidding. Shannon just leans in and tells
Jerry don't hold back at all this time. Mitch quietly walks to the two
of them and just like looks back and forth with a height difference. Remember
remember what I said, if it if it looks like you can't win,
you've run. The point is to get me through, right, So it
doesn't matter what happens after I get past. As long as I get in,
We're gonna buy you all the time that we can. Man. Just
just like Rob, get there and finish this. Mitch hugs Ben and then
follows Shannon. He huggs you as hard as you've ever been hugged in your
life, and you hear him whispering in your ear. Cheers, my brother,
you're my best friend. I know, man, I know I'll see
you on the other side, both of you. Hey, hey, Shannon,
kick Mitch's ass. You can count on it. What can I do
do the other one? Oh yeah, the person in the group that is
going forward, the person, I believe it, Shannon with the best stealth.
Best stealth may roll with a plus two. Okay, all right,
here's my regular role and then my two come on one two successes, you
will be able to sneak past them. M Ben stands beside you. Jerry,
how do you get their attention? I think Jerry's gonna like call out
dad. Hey. All three of them turn to look. You got some
new friends. Rugen Stock starts to laugh. We lost one flag left us.
He starts walking forward, and the other two are following. He spreads
his hands. He seems healthier. He seems not as thin as the last
time you saw him. He's again began to put that balk on that he
had right after the death of Ben's mom. Someone had to be death.
We need another horseman, Jerry curs or. Your father bleeds over to his
sons, and he turns to the insect covered creature and says isn't that right?
Denny and the insect creature. Your brother looks at you and says,
kill me, Jerry. Meanwhile, inside the tunnel, my friends, Shannon,
Mitch, George, Ben Mackenzie and Emmy and doctor Arkaville. Are you
moving for speed or are you moving for stealth? When you enter down the
wrought iron stairs into a large, straight as an arrow tunnel, it's lit
by that same white, bluish glow and goes just in a beeline. You
can't see anything in here. It's as if there are rooms that lead off
of this tunnel, but they all seem to go into sealed doors. None
of them are open. The battle above has not spilled down into this tunnel.
If you run, I give you a time bonus. If you stealth,
I give you a sneak bonus. But it's up to you. How
far of a distance is it. It looks like at least a couple hundred
yards. And then there's a slight elbow turn. You're not sure exactly what
that means. Kay, speed, everybody go with that. The leaders spoken,
I would say, Shannon's sculling the shots, so okay, So you
all start running, and Arcaville is keeping up surprisingly well. He is being
helped by both Jimmy and Ben or I'm sorry, not Ben, both Jimmy
and anybody else that will kind of give him assistance. But the old man's
moving, he's moving quickly, and he's moving with purpose. And as you
go down this tunnel and you hit that slight elbow bend, you come face
to face with a face that you remember from the hospital, Shannon. You
see the robotic feline visage of ravage, but it is cold and gray.
No life, if that's what it was called, exists in this creature anymore,
not more than a arm's reach for one of these titans away. The
blue cassette type body of sound wave rests the only blue hint of it in
the face. The rest of it is gray, lifeless, and unmoving.
After the elbow turn, about fifty yards ahead, the area opens up and
you can see and kind of feel and sense here beneath the earth that it
widens and there's a bluish glow coming from the area. What do you do?
Is it just a big open room again? The tunnel continues, and
then you can see ahead that there is a wider space that you haven't had
a chance to investigate. Yet from that bigger space is a very profound blue
glow. Okay, she slows just a little bit, and make sure that
Mitch is kind of between, like in the middle of everybody rather than on
the sides or behind. Is Mitch still keeping up, Yeah, he is,
He's keeping pace with you. Okay. She goes forward, maybe tries
to identify which direction the light is in or is it just overwhelmingly bright in
that whole area. When you get into the area without any need for a
role or investigate or anything like that, you can see that the glow is
being produced by these stacks and stacks of cubes. These cubes are all blue
in color, and they are glowing this profound bluish glow. It's the same
glow that was in the liquid that you all rushed through the tubes in it
now seems to be contained within these almost like cube like aquariums. They're translucent.
You can actually see it as if it's a liquid inside is slashing back
and forth, captured elements of that same energy that you flowed through. That
energy on. As soon as you enter the area, you all hear a
voice who goes there, George the glyphs and ciphers on the right hand side
of your screen come into clear focus. The first two bits of information that
you received earlier you can now read. It says Optimus Prime offline, rob
them as Prime offline. And the new bit of information that appears says,
Lord Megatron. Do we see where this voice came from? Do we see
it's it's ahead and it's booming. Show yourselves, I see you in my
scanner. Ah, George will let go of doctor Arkerville and let Jimmy hold
him, assuming it he still needs some support. Yeah, and kind of
like brushes between Shannon and Mitch and just this is a this one's mine.
Mitch grabs butts uh, it's fun to say. Mitch grabs George and like
pulls him towards him, and he just like very stone cold says that the
cubes are explosive. Don't don't touch him, don't bump into him, find
a way to use it. It's not your dad. I'm sorry man.
You kind of let's them go. Yeah, but it's just kind of like
silently nods acknowledging it and kind of goes well to lall are one and it
turns around and heads into the room. Since George has engaged Megatron, you
all get a plus two to stealth to sneak past and George as you walk
in your readings. Underneath the reading of Lord Megatron says Energohn detected. Use
caution, whoever would like to roll stealth, I assume Shannon again, you
may do so. You have leadership dice and played too, yeah and then
two just one success, you will be able to pass by. And as
you are sneaking through the space Megatron, you fully realized robotic Megatron stands to
face the area in which George is approaching from. Are you trying to be
stealthy, George or are you walking in to face him directly? George doesn't
have much time for stealth. I think he's more upfront, so I think
he just broad shoulder, just walks right now. You all take this time,
and you're able to sneak by and through an access hatch that doctor Arcaville
indicates. Megatron stands there for a moment a beat another without the need for
a role. You can see that he has wounded. He has been through
some type of battle. There is energy sputtering off of slashes and would appear
to be gunfire across the portion of one portion of his torso his chest,
and when he sees you, he says, ah, shock wave, my
old friend, there you are. The war's done, the primes have fallen.
It's over, my friend. We can finally go home. I am
home and you can fuck off. You don't remember, my friend. You
are confused. Do you know what you are? I have an idea.
You are a Decepticon. You came here with me. I in the body
of the Mother you and the body of the Sun. I was able to
take over Eugene. You remained dormant until time was needed. The war is
over. I know it's hard for you, my friend, but you must
know that I speak the truth. I've learned a couple of things over the
last couple of years. One of those is labels aren't that important, and
you can choose them at one time. I also learned that it's not over
until it's over. Then look at it this way. If you can't remember,
I have no wish to fight you. You make the call. We
can bleed this planet dry and power cyber drown for centuries, or leave with
what we have and spare this place. Come with me and I can show
you things you've only dreamed of. Spaceships off the shoulder of Orion, sea
beams glittering in the darkness near the Tan house a gate. If you stay
here, the humans around you will live and die, while you remain eternal.
After a time, you will be unable to differentiate between them. Each
human life will be lost like tears in the ray. Will you return with
me? Before you say anything, we continue with the other group. My
friend DM me with your response. You emerge from the tunnel. The ground
is still littered with fallen combatants, but now more Loop robots roll me and
investigate Mitch. Two successes, you see that in this area it seems to
be primarily Loop defenses, meaning it's just those bipedal robots. But you also
notice that here and there these robots have large sections of themselves missing. There
are no blast marks around them, there are no scorching or laser fire or
explosions, and you're not sure how you know this, but with two successes
you realize that they have been someone has made them partially dive ahead, you
see the bunker and Jimmy points to it. That's it, That's where they
kept us. That's where they kept us, and beyond that another couple hundred
guards. Arkable points hatch the next just down here? Where is where?
Where would you be if you were here? And she looks to Arkabul.
I don't know. I don't I don't want to be here at all,
but I guess if I had, if I was trying to start the loop,
would be from there. And he points to the command bunker. That's
the same place that Jimmy indicated the prisoners were being held. Well, if
we stop him, then that stops other Mitch, right, it should.
If he can't power up the loop, then I don't know where would get
the energy? Bad? Niche would get the energy right, So let's go
there. Jimmy, can can anyone else dive? Not that I've ever met,
man, And you don't know how your stuff happens. I just get
thrown around. I can't control it, man. And next that one time
that you you help me with the walkie, let me cheat talkie. That
was the only time a doc If if if the dive is like the slide
or like the portal, and you can make the portal and you can make
the dive, could you science fiction this and make it into like a gun.
We take time. I understand what you're trying to say, but maybe
take an awful lot of power, Shannon, those aren't broken. What do
you mean those chunks that are missing her partially dove Well, like they were
like pushed like I did to part No, kind of like how I pushed
Optimus, but like just a part like just I just pushed your arm away
and the rest of you thing that you could eventually learned to do. Probably,
but that's a lot. And he like points to the slew of robots.
So either bad me is real fast or there's a device or and if
article is the one that invented the slide and the portal and he's the one
that invents to the portal gun. Okay, so if you're going that way,
I get what you're trying to say, basically saying that it's dangerous because
we don't know what caused this. Yeah, but you'd be prepared for that
is what I'm trying to say, less of a surprise. If you know
that he has a portal gun. It might not be a gun just with
touch, But I get what you're saying. But if we can stop at
Arquevillain in there, then other you doesn't have the power he needs to do
what he wants to do. Yeah, making a lot of organs there,
But yeah, your arquebillin shakes his head slowly. You would have thought of
that. It's probably true. I also don't know what he's try going to
do or if it needs power. The loop needs an immense amount of power
to do what I can do naturally, So maybe he's the power source.
I don't know, or then what's wrong and I'm the power source and that's
why I need to be there. Do we need that power to do the
the one second loop thing that you were talking about, Yeah, thoughts his
head. So we need them to turn on the power either way. If
it's just on, it's okay. We can siphon the power directly from the
loop. If he's going to activate the accelerator or at full capacity, we
don't need that much, I don't think so just if maybe not doing what
bad me is going to do, but keeping the loop on he's almost getting
does that makes sense, we can still take him out if if if you
think that's we can still take out. So we just need this loop's energy.
We don't want him, okay, So then we just prevent him from
connecting to the others. If it's a it's a holding cell, then we
could use all the people we can get. That's true. Are you guys
walking and talking as you do this? By the way, are you kind
of puddled up to are the are the bots patrolling like it's an aggressive ghost
town? Okay, so they're all like disabled? Yeah, okay, we
can yeah yeah then if if they if they're disabled, they were walking,
yeah, ROMI and investigate somebody, just one person, please, uh okay,
I'll do it. Fudge Monkeys, Nope, you're not sure, Yeah,
Shannon, for you, it's more like the wind changes and you just
see the spinley form of Arkaville leap forward and he says, yogo, Frank
no, And you see Frankenstein's monster, not the kindly Frank that Poulter remembers,
for This is not a Frank nurtured with love and kindness. This is
a monster created by a monster that wanted an attack dog with a devastating backhand,
frank strikes Arkaville and sends him flying into Mitch and Shannon, but before
he goes down, a flash a pop of fire comes from Arkabill's hands,
as he ignites the laboratory lighter he used for his Bunsen burners. The pop
of flame is just enough to spook the gruesome preacher and cause it to lope
back off into the darkness. Arkaville is on top of both of you,
Shannon and Mitch. Jimmy rushes over to your side, and you see his
face drop when he looks down and sees Arcaville on top of you all.
What do you do? At first? Shannon looks at Arcaville, see if
he's going to get up on his own. He is not kind of figure,
you see. His face is glanced with pain. He still seems to
be alive, but his chest is broken. He just says, it's my
heart. He reaches for Mitch and Shannon. Mitch hasn't moved. She takes
his Arqueville's hand. He has incredible pain written across his face, but in
his eyes there is only love. And though they are trembling with this agony,
one of his fingers touches the white band on each of your hands,
and he taps them and you hear him say good and then he's gone.
She kind of inches her way kind of backwards and out from under Arqueville and
kind of tries to pull Mitch as well. Mitch slides out and then grabs
the pack that he had containing the box with the slide parts in it and
just sort of shoulders the pack. Shannon picks up the lighter that Arkaville was
using, just in case, and you have it. The three of you
stand there, Mitch, Shannon, and Jimmy. Jimmy looks at the two
of you. Your dad and the others will be in their Shannon, so
will our Arkaville. He's bad news and completely nuts. Whatever he's doing.
I know it's gonna auto bots. If it's okay, I want to go
with Shannon. If I can help, that's where it will be. Uh.
The kids, the other kids, they said he's younger. Doc said
he he is. H he's a weak heart and he has bad eyes.
He can't he can't deal with loud noises, h and bright lights. It's
good to know, Jimmy, not Jimmy. Do you still have your walkie?
Yeah? Mitch? Is is it possible to create some kind of a
feedback loop with both of these and she grabs hers. Yeah, but it
would be local, Like I could I can make a feed back loop.
We just need a noise right yeah, yeah, yeah, hold on,
and he like pulls out the radio shack backpack, puts the two of them
together, like tunes them to like the same frequency that's like not a normal
frequency, and then duct tapes them together, duct taping the button down and
then turns the volume all the way down on both of them, enhands it
back and says, just just crank the knob. Okay, Mitch, roll
me a tinker for this weapon you have just created. Take an extra die
cool cool cool, Greg. I'm gonna use my iconic item on this as
well. I think let's do it two successes plus h just two successes.
If you is this item, you may do so at a plus four.
Okay. Cool, my friends, this is the last fork in the road.
Mitch and Shannon say your final words to one another. HM, it's
been an interesting experience. I can say that, but remember your promise.
You can't go back. Yeah yeah, I know, uh, I know.
Get everyone out getting come to you once we regroup, get in,
get your dad, get everyone there, go back for everyone else. M
okay, okay. Shannon pulls Mitch and gives him a hug. Mitch is
stiff. He's never got hugged by a girl. The closest was the time
he was on a skateboard. Uh, and he just stands there. Okay,
Okay, don't die. Yeah, same same, Oh man, It
would suck if I go in there and the bad used there and she just
stabs me again. Okay, No, I'm not gonna think about that.
Okay, yeah, don't think about the book. Good luck you too,
come to me. He walks towards the nexus, and as Mitch heads towards
the Nexus, Shannon, you enter the bunker, which turns into any immediate
descent upon some stairs. This bunker is filled with the same bluish glow as
the space that was sheltering Megatron before it, but here it seems purposeful,
set to a task. It pulses everywhere through veins and lines of light on
the far wall. When you reach the bottom of the stairs, the large
space that you see on that far wall, you see the tube filled with
energy on that you flowed through. Now you're on the other side of Alice's
looking glass. So little Soldiers, Comfort Daddy. The voice is nearly swallowed
up by the humlet technology. I do know for you, Oh, oh,
Jimmy creeps up beside you. I don't think he knows I'm here.
Good, and she kind of hands him the walkie around. Okay, you
know that disc you carry gives off magnatude fields, right, might as well
have set up a flare gun. Maybe I wanted you to know I was
here. He is standing in the middle of the space, but you are
still in shadow, as the areas around the outside that aren't lit by these
tubes of energy on are pretty dark. He seems to know where you are,
obviously from your the sound of your voice, but he's tracking oddly.
Roll me an investigate two successes. His eyes are pitch black, no lights
whatsoever. Mhm you hear Jimmy's voice as he creeps away. I don't think
I'm going to see you again, Shannon, Thank you for everything you've given
up for us. Thank you for being my friend. She just nods.
Arcaville starts to walk around like a showman. You want a front row seat?
Why single handedly conquered Death's that what the cell is all about? Immortality,
he produces as he looks at the wall of running energy on this device
will change the world. Well, you want to, I wonder how it
works. That sounds like something that you want to say to somebody before they
can get killed. So no, I don't want to see how it works.
You're not interested in Your dad was His little friends were Sarge and Thrice.
She was sneaky little one. He said you'd show up, said you
wanted your hill? Whatever the hell that means? Do you want your hill?
Is this your hill? Little soldier? Are you ready to die on
it? The question really is if you're ready to die for this supposed vision
of changing the world. I have no intention of dying. In fact,
I fully intend to live forever. And it's at this point that it's more
profoundly apparent that this Arkaville, unlike the elderly man who just died in your
arms. On the surface, he is at least thirty years younger. He
seems well, he's got long hair, just as the elder Arcaville did,
but he's vibrant, healthy and strong. Jeff bridges everybody for a face claim,
Hm, I'm wanna live forever, and so is everyone else. We
don't have a good god here on earth, not until tonight. Is the
floor like kind of smooth slipper like what is the texture of the floor,
that's it's your question. No, sure, sure, it's like a laboratory
tile, if that makes sense. So it's like that we're wet, it
would be slippery. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it probably has some grip
to it. But it's also probably a conjunction thing with shoes, you know,
So if you had the wrong shoes on and you were down here,
you'd probably be all over the place. Okay, can I see what kind
of shoes Arca fills wearing. Oh yeah, if you're earlier, investigate they
are impractical loafers, no socks, because we had a discussion about that before.
What that means they don't have riverized soles. I'm gonna go ahead and
say no. Okay, his achilles heel is actually his heels. Great,
Okay, So the are there like containers or cells or anything in this like
bunker area or is it just like that commands control center thing? Yeah,
this whole area to fully flush it out, it has low level would look
to be stations for multiple multiple personnel. Each station is almost think of like
a command center at NASA, you know, as you would have telemetry at
one and communications at another. Basically the size of a desk and a half.
You know, you could peer over them if you were seated behind them.
And there were six of those such stations. None of them are manned.
There is a rise or almost like a stage, with what would appear
to be a screen behind it if they were displaying, you know, with
slides or pictures or graphs or something of that nature. And that's where he
is standing. Behind him. Built into the wall, or perhaps a part
of the wall itself, is this vast machine that seems to be at least
ninety percent tubes of this energy in this light that are kind of rolling and
moving in and of themselves, almost like a puzzle. And as it pulses
and shifts with each one intermittently kind of firing and rushing this energy around,
he is standing in front of it, proud as a peacock of whatever the
this is that he made. Okay, But he's by himself as far as
you can see. Yeah, okay, trying to think. So, is
there any metal or makeshift that looking like item at it, like if it's
on a wall or something that Shannon could pry off of something else. I
tell you what, Let's roll for this. Roll me a D six if
you get a five or six, there will be a fire axe in a
case on the wall. Okay, let's hooke my right A six. Yes,
look what's right there? Uh? Okay, Shannon will vary quietly in
the shadow, open up the case and take the fire ax up. You
have a fire axe, and for the scene will be a plus two.
Okay, you're here for your da. I had a little soldier. I
already told you I'm here for you, and I'll tell you what I'll give
you your dad. No harm, no foul. Sean Locke walks right on
out of here. You want me to just believe that he's unharmed? Oh,
I mean he's still in one piece. Why don't you show me,
Frank Get the first one, first one, the first one, Frank No,
no, yes. And you hear a door open. You hear the
audible cussing of somebody at least doing a very good imitation of Sean lock.
The Frankenstein's monster walks into the light holding your father is thin, thinner than
you remember, grayer than you remember. Along the temples, he sees you,
Shannon, and then he lunges at Arkaville. You start away from her,
and then Frank just lifts him off the air until he's dangling. Who
Stoe feisty, You're gonna have him all yours a gift of me in exchange
for what? Turning around and walking off my hill, Hey Dad, what's
our song? He looks at you. We are star dust and Arcaville looks
between the two of you. Hey, I'm gonna need a decision, Frank,
get ready to tear that one in half. Your decision and before you
get a chance to before you get a chance to answer, Jerry, you
and Ben stand before these three. Your brother Denny, covered in these bugs,
says, kill me, Jerry, kill me, and Rugan much like
our former peacock is strutting in front of your family. Your dad just had
to move in on my territory. Melanie was mine and she would have ended
up with me. But your dad here did something, didn't you. He
turns around and he squeezes your dad's face. You never told me what you
did, Carl? What was it? Some type of wish? Love spell?
Curse your dad? Jerks A curse shit, Carl, I'm impressed.
So you sold your soul to have Melanie fall in love with you. A
fucking idiot. Your dad says, no, I used to curse to make
you leave her alone. I don't know why it stopped working. Regan pauses,
and for a moment he turns his back to you. So you're telling
me she fell in love with you by her own free will. I don't
fucking believe it. Carl Ben looks to you. Jerry, my friend,
what do you do so, Greg? When when Jery like got his superpowers?
Sure that's the question we should always ask, right, Well, yeah,
we were messing with like high power equipment and focus through a crystal,
and Jerry just again saw like a like a high power energy beam vaporize one
of his friends. But he's got these crystals in his pocket. Sure,
sure, I think Jerry's going to pull one of them out and kind of
like site down it in his hand like he's holding a pistol pointed at Rugen
and all the electricity he can muster out of his body, He's going to
try to channel it through this crystal and shoot Rugen right in the back.
My friend, roll me a force with this improvised weapon at a plus one.
All right, I'll have to roll an extra I sure hope it works.
All right. So that's uh, I got one luck. You know,
it seems like a good time to use it. Let's rock it out,
my friend. Everybody could give him a die. You certainly can do
it right now if you'd like, I'll let I'll let him roll it for
the first roll too. Go ahead and roll me a D six if you
want to. Let's just very alright, I'm on a roll. Okay,
So if you reroll it, you still continue to have that leadership die,
but you will get a condition or now you're using luck, you'll get you'll
get the reroll or the die from Shannon regardless even with the reroll, my
friends, please uh track twenty four. That's four classes? Who alrighty?
So, my friend, as you let this lightning fly, it blasts into
the back of Rugen and he begins to kind of twist and his whole body
spasms, but he does not fall. Instead, almost as if pulled on
giant marionette strings, your father begins to no no as he moves forward,
and you see lightning lance on his own fingers and across his own frame,
and you see your brother covered in the bugs begin to twirl into a spire.
As these bugs begin to tornado out from him and come towards you and
Ben and your dad tears streaming down his face. I can't stop it,
Jerry, And the energy is lancing as it's cutting into Rugan. Your father.
Father puts a hand in front of the bolt and begins to absorb it
himself as Rugan falls away, smoking from his shoulder. When he turns around,
the flesh on the right side of his face is ebony black. My
friend, what do you do as you continue to maintain this beam that is
shooting out of your hand, but your father now seems to be catching it
on his end. My family is standing here with me, even if they
can't now get out of the way. Your dad, his entire body is
shaking, and your brother again. The insects are starting to warm around you.
They're getting blistered and popped by the energy that you're creating. You hear
Ben screaming beside you, as he doesn't have the same lightning bug protection that
you do, and you hear Carl scream out I can't fight him, but
you can. You're my boys. You're all my boys. Roll me and
investigate. Jerry at a plus four, Well, no, that's zero.
I can give him someone. I'm dead right, my I can sure you
can give him as many as you'd like. When you're dad, my friend,
All all right, for this moment, I'll give you two. I'm
I'm gonna hold on to two, just a kase somebody else. No,
I couldn't make anything of it. I'll take it back. Kay. As
this all begins to happen, if you're gonna are you maintaining this beam?
Yeah? I think he's he's maintaining and taking slow steps forward like he's just
trying to clear a path basically. Okay, So as you do this,
I need you to make another force role. If you do not get three
successes, you're going to take a condition. All right, Yeah, now
I beat devastator. I feel like this is another time to use pride.
Jerry. Jerry doesn't believe he can fail. I give you one success,
my friend. Oh take it. No, No, that's not going to
do it. That's one success, roll me another investigate plus four. As
you take the condition, we'll go with injured. Zero success is there?
All right? Should have a condition? There you will. The bugs are
swarming all over you. As Rugan begins to move completely behind your father,
your father is spasming, not with the effects of the lightning. His own
lightning is surrounding him. But it seems to be him trying to fight against
his body to do something. But the spasms are only small, incremental movements.
He can't control himself and your brother. As he steps forward, the
only thing he can do is say kill me, Jerry, Kill me,
Jerry. As he takes each step. But these bugs running in and out
of his ears. You can see elements of his flesh that have been riddled
with these bites of these insects. I need you to rule me another force,
my friend. Another failure gives you a conditions. It's been pointed out
in the chat that don't forget the plus four dice for your crystals or is
that a one time thing? Greg, he has more crystals if he wants
to use those, as he's kind of burning through them, that's a plus
one for the crystals, right, I do have three? Well, I
guess two if I burned through one, so yeah, I guess I'll help
burn burn another one. Now it's two successes. Again. You take another
condition, though this one is upset. We will equate it as a little
more than rage. My friend, roll me another investigate again with the same
pluses as before. Hey, I've got two successes this time. You're not
sure why you look away, But when your father screamed out, you're my
boys. You're all my boys. As you look to your right, you
see Ben's squatting at the creatures, and when he looks up at you,
you see energy lick between his eyes, and it's not your electricity. Can
I reach back grab Ben's hand and I'm just like in the Devastator fight,
kind of look down at him and urge him with one fist and both of
us to point our fists at the same same target and just nod at him.
Hears streaming down his face. He grabs your hands pressed Palm to palm
is the roll of pennies between the two fabulous Baker boys. As with a
combined might one shot by Jerry and a newly formed lightning blast from Ben lances
out and hits Carl. As he seems to accept that, you see a
smile go across his face and he reaches back and instead of grabbing or instead
of trying to grab the lightning from Ben, he wraps his hand around the
sheltering Rugan who immediately starts to convulse with the electricity that's flowing through the mall.
And Carl looks over at your brother Danny circuit, and that's always says,
what do you do, my friend? Well, I think Jerry,
like like I said, he's been he's been doing this slow press forward throughout
this. I think if he if he's able to push it close enough hill
hug his father just letting the energy flow. At this point, you're able
to do it. And despite the stings and the bugs, Ben is able
to draw Denny in as well, until there is a circle of lightning,
and Rugin, being kind of the odds spoke of the wheel, is feeling
the energy. But his entire skin has become glossy, ebony black. It's
almost like it's oil, and he's screaming as it kind of bubbles across his
surface. Jerry, I'm going to tell you this. You can end this.
You have to become the lightning. You can see that your father is
burning up. He's has too much. You can see that Ben hasn't had
your experience with this. He's even the short blast that he's given, he's
already beginning to weaken and dim and your brother, Denny. He seems already
dead. It's up to you, my friend, how do you end this?
Carry's gonna stop, He's he's gonna he's gonna stop. He's hugging his
dad. You know, everything's falling apart. And I think at this point,
he's probably about the same size as his father. He's he's grown into
a large boy. And he's just gonna look over his dad's shoulder as the
lightning kind of fades away, and he's just gonna kind of kind of laugh.
You don't matter. You're too late. You can't stop us. And
whatever comes, Jerry's ready for it. Then wraps his arms around you and
Carl as well, and you don't see what comes, but there is a
white, brilliant light. What is the last thing that Jerry Baker says?
He'll He'll glance at Ben, catch you on the flip side, and Ben
and Jerry are gone. George Megatron looks at you. What is your decision?
Shock Wave? M you just don't listen to you. I am selfish.
I want my friend back. It's too bad. I'm not Shockwave.
My name changed a long time ago. I'm Ultra Magnus. Roll me a
charm? Could I possibly light up a cigarette? Could live for that line,
dude, after the night that I've had, If you fucking he can
light up a cigarette? Man? All right, here we go. I
rolled like twelve dice and no successes. Yeah, luck already again. If
there's anybody that wants leadership, you can push it if you'd like. I
have you not used your pride? You may, I'm not sure I haven't.
I do have my pride and it might be applicable here. It is.
I'm a survivor. I'll absolutely give it to you, okay, oh
us pride. Instead of arguing with you, Megatron looks at you and nods,
so be it. Autobot. I have no wish to fight you.
I am leaving this place. Are you going to try and stop me?
Well? I have to at least try if your intent is to attack?
Is that what you're intending to do? Yes? In the bottom right hand
corner you see an autobot symbol appear and it says transform. Yes, of
course, Greg, my friend, roll me a force. No successes.
As you stand there for a moment, you feel yourself become lighter as your
heels lift and then your toes lift. Off of the ground and much like
a disc or a magnetute disc in the palm of Shannon Locke. You lift
two three four inches off the ground and around your wrist where a watch would
be worn. On both of those you see a halo of light appear as
if floating above your wrists on each side. Megatron looks at you and says,
what a waste and he is going to attack you as he raises his
arm cannon up. I need you to make me a move. Role successes,
The blast goes off, and with three successes you are able to fly
and zip like a child of Neverland. And instead of the errant shot striking
a cube of energy on behind you, it blasts off into the ceiling,
creating a huge chunk of debris that falls and narrowly misses one of the stacks.
He turns to fire again. But you, my friend, can do
something here. What do you do? So to clarified, this is his
full form, like he's fully here? Or is this he is fully He
does not look like Eugene Butts whatsoever? He looks like g one Megatron.
Is there potentially a hose or pipe of energron in this area? There you
don't see any of the clear ones, but there are there's piping inventing running
everywhere in this subterranean area. I think it needs a little bit of juice,
greg I would like to I don't know if it's slammed into him,
but my goal is to drown him in energy on. Okay, rome a
force three successes, and like you punched the derelict robots in the Magnetarine truck
graveyard before the full maturation of your powers, you are able to pool these
pipes from the wall. As energyon begins to spill and rush into the area.
This energyn is hot. It is bubbling in places. You can see
that some of it is a normal temperature like what you flowed through. Some
of it is almost molten. As it comes out and sprays everywhere, you
can see that he is attempting. He is aggressive, but in his wounded
condition. You see him as this begins to flow into the area, touching
his feet, he reacts as if acid has touched him, and he begins
to back up towards a large kind of open garage type door in the back.
Not the service entrance that the rest of your friends went through. This
is a larger kind of a where deliveries would probably be gone, but without
the need for a role. It looks as if he plans to retreat.
He's backing through the stacks of energy on are you going to stop him?
Your father? If that's what you call him, he will suffer for your
insolence, ultra madness. I think with that it seals butts his conviction and
he goes to stop him. What are you gonna do if I'm still flying?
Or am I own crownd them? You're kind of hovering with attitude,
hovering with it. I could accept that. Uh. I think it's just
almost like when I knife handed the h bad butts through the slider. I
think I'm going to spear. I'm just gonna go for like a spear dive
into this guy. Roll me a force. No successes you spear dive into
him. I will allow you to push this. I will allow you to
use anything you would like. If you want to roll again or take the
result, I'll push. Do I accept the condition before or after after,
but you will get the condition injured. Okay. One success you are able
to spear into him. His exterior, though wounded, is still very strong
and causes you to bend a bit as you hit it kind of bow backwards
as your bodies, though strong, can't really match up to the Cybertronian steel
that he is. But you're able to kind of sneak your hand into one
of the wounds that are pre existing, and as you knife into him,
a huge spew of sparks and energy on comes out, igniting the energy on
cubes. My friend would is what does George but say at the end,
You'll never hurt anybody ever again, And like a hero of old, he
keeps his word. Shannon Frank holds your father aloft Arcaville looks at you.
Your father or death your decision, little soldier. Well, I did come
for you, but we have this. It's a really nice conversation. So
I guess I'll take my dad Bright drop him. Drop your dad drops to
the ground. Sean looks between the creature. Both creatures slowly begins to walk
towards you, keeping them. He's back and kind of walking to the side
until he puts himself between you and them. Get out here, Dad,
He's let us go. I know, trust me. He looks back at
you. I do with all my heart. Shannon kind of gives him a
smirk. Hey, Arquaville, I forgot to introduce you to somebody. Hey,
Jimmy his you see Arkaville's back kind of straighten. Jimmy's not sure what
you wanted to don Milwaukee. You see an object come flying into view,
and just as it flies into view, the first ear piercing squawk begins to
hit. From the feedback, I'm gonna let you roll force for this,
but do it at plus four okay, gift from good Mitch. Okay,
uh so force and then that was one plus four two successes. Arkaville drops
to his knees and he is grabbing his ears and screaming. Okay. Shannon
would like to literally sprint as fast as possible, and she is going to
swing the axe at Arkavill's head, my friend. With that plus two from
this scene driven item, roll me another force as you're going full happy Gilmore
on okay two on the regular role plus two plus two please three successes.
With the three successes that you needed, you bury this axe into the head
of doctor Holter Arkaville. A demon is not revealed. A robot is not
revealed. He does not stand up and pluck the axe from his head,
casting it aside like some god that he claimed to be he died. You
hear your father scream Shannon, and you feel something reaching for you. I
need you to roll me a move role. Can I use my iconic item,
the leather bust? I know I'm technically not wearing it, but absolutely
yeah. Okay, this is the last episode for Successes. You duck with
your father's knowledge on your own instincts, and as you kind of roll forward
out of the way, leaving Arkaville, who drops to his knees, still
clutching his ears, and then drops the side with the axe sticking out of
his forehead. Content warning, Frankenstein sweeps the air above where your head would
have been without the need for an investigate role. The machinery around you,
which was loud that he had to talk over before, seems to get louder
and louder, and your dad is You see him screaming and motioning yeah,
and Jimmy moves deeper in and you see him at the what presumably a bank
of cells that Frankenstein extracted your father from, and you see him furiously trying
to open them. You see the face of Maggie a sarge and of Thrice,
otherwise known as Jay h M damn it ah, Greg. Do I
have time for Shannon to smash the console behind her with the axe and then
make a run for it. Absolutely, But I will tell you this a
bit of meta knowledge. Meta. You may disable it, but it may
be very dangerous to you. Well, I'm gonna use my pride because I
never backed down. So well, whatever that happens will happen. So as
you pull the axe out of where it was placed, you bring it forward.
Your father is charging you, trying to stop you. He's nowhere close.
Jimmy and the others are safely to the far side of the space,
and you bring the acts down with your pride. There is no need for
a role. There's just a brilliant white light. I didn't think you would
all do this. What does she in and say? I thinks she just
says, we're all just stardust. Give me just a second and Shannon is
gone. Mitch. You are alone. The NEXTUS building is in front of
you. How do you approach? He just walks in. As you walk
in, you enter this large space for what seems to be a large space,
but when the doors opened, there is a set of familiar wrought iron
stairs. Heading down, it's it's the it's the electric chair walk. Each
step is like slow and purposeful, and he just walks down quietly. When
you get about two thirds of the way down, you have to reach out
and grab a railing as the space kind of rocks and rolls as thousands of
energy on cubes explode. A second later, there is another smaller explosion.
This one is localized closer, almost next door in that command bunker. Once
you enter the space at the bottom of the stairs, it opens up into
a pretty mundane laboratory. The interior pulses with a purple light. A massive
line of blue energy on is intersected in a vast X with a line of
glowing red energy on. White boards are everywhere. Classic coke cans are scattered
across the floor. Are you trying to be stealthy? No, Greg,
I already know I'm here. You hear your own voice about you. Just
sit over against the wall and don't ask any questions. You'll figure it all
out in a few years. Anyway. I'm pretty sure I got it,
man. Cool, Yeah, I just sit down. Then that's not how
this goes this time. You're around the corner, and you see in front
of this device that looks almost like a telescope that has like, you know,
like a sight line and a huge apparatus kind of reaching up into the
sky. Cool your jets. Man, listen, if you forget any ideas
of I don't know, pulling out a gun you found and shooting me,
I've got insurance, so have a seat. What what what insurance could you
have? The best kind? Man? Come on? All right? Shit,
do you remember when we were falling off of that tower between Trade Winds
and the magtruck graveyard. Yeah, Laser being a robot swooped in right,
grabbed you and said, son, huh dude, that's me. I just
haven't done it yet. Sit the fuck down. Man, You do anything
to me, you're out of here. So what you're saying is, if
I do anything to me, you're out of here. Paradox is weird,
ma'am. Don't you know what I'm trying to do here? Do you know
what's happened? They probably don't. I didn't. I don't really care at
this point. I think your friends are all dead. No, I know,
I knew they weren't making it out. They're all dead like I got
it and know what death means. You wait ten minutes, I'm bringing them
all back, bro, that's what you think, That's what I'd fucking no,
man, ten minutes. Just sit back and in ten minutes they'll all
be here like nothing fucking happened. Man, I'm resetting all the fucking garrets.
What's what's the power source? This is a beauty man, You've got
a lot of fun shit ahead of him. So I'm gonna give you a
little bit of jumpstart. I probably shouldn't have swore I wouldn't do this shit,
but let me put it. Check this. I knew exactly where the
loop was gonna expand all the farms and ship they were gonna steal by,
so over the course of a couple of decades, I bought the land next
to him. Dude, I hot wired the loop. If the fucking clue,
man, I took it. I took it all. I brought them
all here, Megatron flag all these assholes they're fighting each other. You're welcome,
But why though, to bring back our friends? Come on, man,
if this is our villain arc, where's the monologue? You've seen every
movie beat? You're getting it right now? I'm telling you how cool I
am by doing all this shit. But I already know how cool I am.
That's why I'm here. No, no, no, So why thank
your universes? Why Megatron? Why the monsters? Why he points to all
the white boards. It's math, man. I had to make sure I
had every fucking base covered. And I mean, I hate to say I
told you so, because it's really like telling about myself. I told myself,
but it did and I will and I'm a fucking badass. Okay,
all right, I mean all right, so if I have to eight ten
minutes, yeah, but before the before we start the clock, right,
I'm sure you gotta hit a few buttons. You show me how you hot
wired it, like, I'm sure that's going to be super useful in the
future. Right, I'm not going to show you how a hot wire.
You gotta learn this shit, man, otherwise you'll get done too quick and
then you'll try this before it's supposed to happen. I'll let you know this.
This is one thing that I told myself that I would let the fair
second. Oh yeah, that was one of the loop pierced the veil.
They fucked everything up when they did that Locke and our Dad fucked absolutely everything
up, but the one good thing was they got that spare second in eighty
seven, March twenty fourth, to be exact, I'm resetting all the fing
garrets to March twenty fourth, nineteen eighty seven, before any of this shit
happened, stopping it all. I'm stopping the original loop jump. I'm gonna
bring Dad back. Well, fuck it, year, Oh man, why
did you kill us in every dimension? Because we're fucking stupid. Man.
We think we know it all man, and we fucking argue and we don't
know it all man. I do you know why? Because I fucking won.
None of those others would listen to me. All of them are fucking
dead because they didn't listen to me. Jerry, Benn, George, Rob
fucking Shannon. They're all fucking dead because they didn't listen to me. You
were right, man, and now we get to show them. They won't
ever know it, but we're the fucking heroes of the day. Man.
We pulled the sword from the fucking stone. Yeah yeah, yeah, So
you need ten minutes to show everyone who the hero is. Right. You
can't stop it, dude, I get it. Man. They did our
best have a fucking seat? Man? You need an army and you ain't
got blood. Yeah, okay, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna hang out
over here. When you turn around, Mitch, there's a hooded figure behind
you, not looming over you, about five feet off to your right.
Not the need for a role. You realize that this is the the same
hooded figure you saw in the garret with the only McDonald's. The hooded figure
steps into the glow of the purple and your older self says, holy shit,
did you actually get one through? Fucking good on you, guys at
both of you have a seat, more people to celebrate. The figure reaches
up, grabs their hood, pulls it down and says, I'm not going
anywhere. Who do you think you are? Because you're not him? What
the fuck are you doing here, man, Mitch? This Rob looks seventeen.
What the fuck's going on? Man, it's been a few years,
figured some stuff out. I'm onder your ass now. You can't stop me.
Man, It's still just the fucking two of you. You see four
other figures step out of a brilliant white light behind Rob. I thought you
were good at math. George Jerry Shannon Ben one moment you were where you
were and with the pull of a sweat miss shirt hooded seventeen year old robot,
you are here. The fuck is going on? Man? What the
fuck is this? How are you? You're all supposed to be You're all
supposed to be dead. Guys, I need five minutes? He needs bullshit?
What the fuck is going on here? Listen, don't fucking do anything,
man, you you you you, you screw us all up. Too
late for that. You only need five twenty five well guard and you all
hear the heavy footsteps of something as it emerges from the shadows behind Mitch,
and that large silver robot with the slice of light for an eye steps forward
towards You need to fucking army man, fuck him up, gort and you
see the light begin to glow. My friends, everybody please go to number
twenty two. Excuse me, number twenty three on our Spotify playlist, Rob,
Welcome back, my friend. As your friends gather around you, you
need five minutes. What do you say to your newly arrived friends. You
haven't seen them in a while. God, we're so young. We'll reminute
later. Get big Mitch and he's gonna half half step, half charged towards
Big Mitch. My friends, this is your story. To tell tell me
what you want to do. Roll your dice, and if you get twelve
successes, you beat Mitch and Gordon. And because of the Michigan's we received
tonight, any conditions you have have her gone. Your luck is back,
as is your pride. Go get them auto bots. So Rob's gonna do
something that's very had not rubbish, as they know. And in his approach
towards Big Mitch, he's gonna crow hop and just punch him right dead in
the face, or attempt to just yeah, roll me some force, my
friend, h add whatever you would, I would suggest, adding everything you
have to it. So I'm gonna use both looks. So let's see,
I'm just gonna boost that up. And also the other two you can use
your lucks to reroll if you'd like. I'll give you more dice to do
that instead of counting him as extra dice. Yeah, yeah, let's do
that. Then yep, one success. Can I go ahead and roll it
again? Just give him a two piece you absolutely can. Yeah, keep
the one that you have and you'll incur. Yeah. So it's he hasn't
actually ever punched anybody. It's all been in the air, so this is
the first time he's gonna make physical contact with a person. It's a good
one though, as you crack him along the side right by the ear.
What's everybody else do? As you have one success my friends? Did you
want to add your pride into that too? Which has been refreshed Rob?
Oh? Yeah, absolutely, why not. Let's let's do that. You're
at two successes, my friends? Friends? Who's up next? Los?
Jerry? Yeah? Oh no, bad timing, gosh started? Hey Greg?
Yeah? My ax gone? Nah yeah, okay, uh, I'm
trying to remember. Shannon's trying to remember some of the stuff that Mitch and
her talked about while working on the Battlewagon. So they were like the whole
summer, right, So he talked about all sorts of mechanical shit that Shannon
was kind of paying attention to but not entirely, and is trying to think
of something that would create a vulnerability in the robot, like something that he
would only do. Mm hmm. You know that's a weird No, you're
looking for a week spot, is that what you're trying to do? Yeah,
Okay, I tell you what. I won't cause you to have a
push for this, but you'll need to basically take one of your dice and
spend that to roll and investigate, kind of give yourself a bonus action if
you will so roll and investigate, and then based upon that will allow you
to make your strike. Okay, so two successes on investigate. That beam
of light seems to be the weakest point. Strangely enough, it's just about
the size of an axe blade. Cool. Okay, is this a very
tall Shannon's got ups? So yeah, you can definitely get up there to
make the swing it's about Okay. I was like, is this thing like
twelve feet or higher? Because as you're gonna need a boost. Okay,
if you want to go narratively and get a boost from somebody like Fastball special
Issue, I'm all here for it. Okay. Cool. Yeah, who's
the closest to Shannon? I can't remember that order in which everybody appeared.
You would all you'd be between George Ben Jerry. Okay, she's actually going
to turn to butts. Butts toss me up and she's getting her ass ready
for liftoff, and you're like, oh yeah, and she just steps and
pushes off as hard as she can. So I'm going to allow you guys
to tell me how you do this. I will give you an example.
Butts can rocket like a missile towards this thing, and have you like prepared
to kind of like mailbox baseball it when you go by, or he can
throw you as a missile yourself. You all tell me your story and then
roll some force for me. Shannon m Betta, this is your play,
so you let me know what you prefer. I feel like I'm gonna need
Butts to back her up, so tossing her is probably the best bet here,
just in case the robot doesn't, you know, get this ring or
something that's kind of intercedes. Yeah, okay, Romo, force Butts just
to see uh my last two leadership to two butts. Okay, one success.
You are rocketing through the air at this robot. Roll me a force
with the plus two of the acts of course. Okay, bunch, okay,
hold one more plus two son of a new hit. But it doesn't
penetrate the visor. It kind of skiters off the forehead as you fly by.
You can push if you want. That's what will happen. But what
does happen is up to Meadow. You may push it, continue it,
throw your pride into it. I feel like pride is going to be the
one to go. She's on a roll with this axe. So yeah,
we're when I gotta go with pride. Okay, So with you get one
success as you sink the axe into the visor, causing it to like shorten
the glass the kind of bow and split as the crystal or whatever it is
that is that translucent material splinters and flies out of the front of the visor,
rocketing gort back, you know, a half step of his giant you
know, silver moon boot. Jerry George, what do you do to contribute?
Mitch obviously too, we'll have a role in this. In a moment,
I think, well they're doing that. Cherry's gonna like give bad Mitch
a look. You were the smartest kid I knew and stupidest grown up,
and he's gonna punch Dirt's knee like sideways to try and down them. Roll
me a force, take take my extras. I got two more figures.
Nice, all right? They I didn't help. Never again. You may
pride or push or if you push the role or use a luck. If
you have it, you may use the same dice that we're given to you.
Again. They also come back and apply, Yeah, I've got I've
got the luck back, so I may as well. I'm better than this.
I know I am. That's two success It gives you all a total
of five. As you run forward and I'm with another an electric fastball to
the knee, you crack the haymaker and as Gord's knee bends the wrong way
a little bit, you know, a bit of an Ostrich effect. George,
what do you do, my friend? I think after sending Shannon and
in that same amount of time, I think that's when Jerry also hits the
kneecap. I think I want to capitalize on that momentum and tried who hit
him from the direction that he would topple Gordon. So I'd like to fly
into him and just kind of like a philo exactly. Okay, so roll
me a force. Any success will cause that to happen, because it was
set up by Jerry and Shannon. For that matter, no successes push pride
for both where locks my luck? Two successes, two more successes, and
again anybody can throw the pride into it if they want. That's always a
free success no matter what you've already rolled, Mitch, your friends are buying
you time. In the few precious moments that these four are kicking ass and
or to taking names, Mitch is frantically removing parts and tools from his backpack
from Arkaville's backpack, and he is building the contraption that he and Arkaville designed.
I'm gonna I'm gonna roll you some shit, Greg, and this is
going to be a part of the defeat, So rollmy I'm assuming you want
to go tinker with this. I absolutely do. And you get the plus
two from the device that you created. Let's see here six. That is
three additional successes. And Greg, since you are a huge fan of them
and it is the final episode and it has been a traumatic three and change
years, I have a I have a little bargain for you, buddy.
We need two successes. Is you sure do? Young Mitch doesn't know how
to hot wire the loop, but he had a pretty good idea when he
was talking to Shannon a few minutes ago, and he's pretty sure he can
be a power source. I'm going to try to dive the loop without them
in it and Mitche goes with it. Are you killing yourself? It's the
only way to make sure en that happens again, using your pride. Don't
tinker for successes. Old Mitch begins to scream. He moves as the walls
begin to liquefy around you. He grabs hold of the walls and attempts to
stop what's happening. George, Rob, Jerry Shannon do something to stop him.
No, you see that Mitch is holding onto the device ice that was
designed in the back of the moving battlewagon. And Mitch is constantly phasing in
and out and in and out and in and out as everything is moving and
warbling around. Rob. Did you say that out loud? Candle said that,
Oh m hm, Rob's gonna Rob's gonna throw his crystal at him.
Not say anything. Just helmet right ahead, the one that you wear,
the one that from Maggie. Yes, the crystal. What do you want
to roll? Forced move charm? You tell me what you're trying to do,
and I'll tell you what's wrong. I want him to have a way
back if he goes. I want I want him to have a beacon so
we can find him. I don't I don't want him to just disappear.
It's the only thing I have. They kept kept me here, well relatively
speaking, with a plus two for the iconic item Roman empathize as you were
trying to save your friend. M hm hm hm, Oh, that's not
it. That's not it either. How do I forget to do this?
Slash our space to the Yep, it's the slash first ye, the crystal
hits him and catches along the loop of no pun intended as he just phases
in, he catches along the loop of his belt. And when he phases
out again, the crystal becomes in material as well. And then he's gone.
And you want are standing in a field, who's all? Is it
just the four of us or other other people? Four of you? And
then you see the other people around you, see Jimmy, Maggie. They're
farther off your father. They seem unharmed, but now kind of bewildered as
to why they are lying on the grass and not in a cell or a
tunnel. M Oh no, no, no, no, no, no,
that's he wasn't supposed to do that. He just happened. He wasn't
supposed to do that. He's supposed to still be here. We're supposed to
win. I think we just did. I planned this for four years.
Okay, he's gone, He's not gone. You just have to find him
better not be man. He's He's got my crystal and I need it back.
Jerry's gonna just reach out and grab Rob by the shoulder and pull him
in for a hug, no words, and Rob's gonna lose it. It's
a much stronger hug than you remember. I believe it. As you all
stand there, the clock flips over to twelve oh one January first, nineteen
ninety. Mitch is out there somewhere. He has a gift from his friends
and family with him. My friends, if wherever you are, and good
things happened and Mitch's found, what do you see happening for your your group,
your your people? What is the what is the happily ever after?
For each of you? Anyone may go first. This is a dream of
hope. This is not what will be, just what could be, because
that's what hope is. Sounds like nobody else is jumping at the bit,
So I guess I'll go through what I had planned. I would like to
imagine this as a show. So I imagine it as a scene in the
suburbs. It's a camera pans into a picture window on a middle class house.
In the bottom it says nineteen ninety six. This is POLICI. Here's
some sort of voice. Sounds like it's some kind of broadcast, and as
it shifts into the room. And in other news, Lieutenant Governor Kathleen Kennedy
Townsend made a statement with regard to the disruptions around the Capitol Beltway Expressway from
this past Tuesday. Lieutenant Governor and explained that and then the news anchor stops
dead, looks directly into another camera. Don't trust Rita Clarissa find Alpha five
near Henry and Son salvage. You can't go it alone. Seek sword Ons
guidance. She says. We can expect it to breed, to be cleared,
and traffic patterns to resume normal operation after this weekend. This is George
Butts with w bl I at Witness News. Have a good evening and thank
you for watching n see well everyone else thinks. I will tell you my
hope for George. If I could pick a story. The gondola car spasms
as the last length of safety line begins to splinter inside. Seven souls pray
for many things, but none of them pray for salvation. They know no
help wholl ever arrive in time. There are prayers of preparation for what happens
next, prayers of protection for the loved ones being left behind, and a
small six year old boy and his nine year old sister pray for their parents,
who let their granddad bring them into the city. Tears roll down the
little girl's cheeks as the gondola's last length of steel cable gives and they begin
to plummet. Sometimes even the unvoiced prayers are answered. The car's descent slows
until they are drifting downward, no faster than an autumn leaf. Gently,
they come to rest on the rocks at the base of the mountain they are
attempting to summit. Outside the little girl's window, George comes into view,
wearing a deep hood and a dark band of color over his eyes. No
one else save if her brother notices him. The rest are too busy weeping.
All right, are you Superman? She asks through the blown out window.
George smiles but acts offended. Do I look like Superman? No?
No, no, she says a smile of her own, ghosting her shock
filled face. What do I call you? George seems genuinely challenged by the
question. Finally he smiles again, call me ultra Ultra, just ultra,
as if beginning a new prayer. The girl whispers ultra ultra, winks and
flies away. Because every reporter needs to be a superhero, what are your
hopes they can be some? I think after all of this, Jerry,
Jerry does want the simple life. You know, maybe maybe he finally pursues
that that romance. Maybe maybe I can see him staying in Garrett. You
know, maybe the football scholarship didn't pan out. But he's a systant coach
for the middle school team or something, and it's a good life for him.
Uh. You know, he's he's grown a lot, and he's he's
got a lot to pass on to the next generation. Even if he doesn't
seem all that smart, he gets it. And I like to think that
he and Ben on weekends play in the worst grunge band to grace the county
of it. My hope for all of these characters. I'm selfish and wrote
these while ago. So in the middle of a blizzard in the snow globe.
That is Garrett. It's dead. Chief Vanessa's going to have this baby
in the truck. Jerry steps forward pop the hood, Rick, lifting the
hood. Police Chief Jerry Baker assesses the vehicle's engine as the snowstorm rages around
him. Quickly removing a glove, he places his hand on the car's battery
as lightning dances in his eyes. The vehicle roars to life. You did
it, roaring over the blizzard and the newly reborn engine. Follow me in,
Rick, We'll get you to the hospital. Breaking back through the shin
deep snow towards his police issue Bronco, Jerry sees the two shadows of his
nine year old twins standing beside the vehicle. I told you too to stay
inside. First twin says, I only thought we could help. Jerry says,
you can help by getting in the Bronco. Second twin says, shotgun
forced boy grumbles, But the rules are the rules. The chief smiles as
he climbs into the vehicle and waits for his boys to strap him. Dropping
the broncos plow, he starts to cut a path into the middle of Garrett
towards the hospital. Jerry is happy it is a good life. Yea,
you win these. I get to save my ship because I love you all
and so oh uh so I don't. I feel like Rob will maintain,
but he's not gonna do well. You get every time he sees any kind
of crystal, you know, he grabs it and then just goes into a
depressive state for days and tries to, you know, do his best to
recreate the feeling of the all the times he jumped. He even sometimes just
turns his Mitchie talkie on and sits and stares at it in the dark.
But these are things he does in private. On then the outside he's he's
robbed, you know, he's now he's older than all of his friends,
but it doesn't bother him. He goes about his day to day. He
takes over duties at the paperback exchange, and he lives in normal life and
does his normal everyday thing. But no amount of the home amount of crystals
can really get to happen what he wants to happen. He can't make communication,
he can't jump, he can't do what he wants to do. And
I'd like to believe at his very lowest he finally finds a crystal underneath the
floorboard during a remodel, and he picks it up and m and MITCHI talkie
goes off. That's it. You win. Before us say anything about Rob,
I need to go to Mitch because I need to know this Rob fired.
You. We see Mitch. We see all of these scenes and the
camera sort of pulls back and warbles as it does, and you see that
Mitch has set up what looks like TV screens, but on closer inspection,
they are versions of the slide that he has spent time and time and time
trying to perfect. He has one on each of his friends in every universe
him that they traveled to, and he's watching and taking notes, doing his
best to not cause ripples and time. But every once in a while you
see him fold up something and toss it into one of the windows and it
lands somewhere just out of sight of the person that focuses on for them to
find something, something that will help them fix their garrett. But when the
years creep by and you've done it, the garrets are safe, your effects
are passed away. When the crystal will find you, what do you do?
There is a ridiculous piecemeal antenna that at the base of it is the
original MITCHI Lucky, and he presses the button, says, this Wheeljack is
anyone out there? You go home? There's a way home, there always
is. Signed flips from closed but not forever to open. A moment later,
Knee, wearing his brown UPS uniform, backed into the paperback exchange,
wheeling a hand truck laden with several cardboard boxes the top of the Morning Rob,
the middleway man, says cheerily, Morning Knee, What do you have
for me? Looks like all the normal stuff, but we do have a
special delivery. Is it what I think it is? Looks like it,
buddy. Rob quickly reaches past the frame picture of Miss Maggie, the activated
Mitchie Talkie, the sealed and boarded copy of Ultra number one, and finally
behind the counter, and a moment later he pulls forth a box cutter.
Trembling hand, he holds a sharp edge over the top box of the hand
truck. Mee whispers, gonna be awesome. Man holding it up. Stealing
himself. Rob opens the box, revealing several copies professionally graded and packaged of
the first issue of a brand new comic book. Holding it up and revealing
the back to us viewers. Rob holds it so Knee can see together the
boys of thirty fewer years. They both leaned forward, lean forward, and
whisper oh. For several minutes they simply stare at the cover until finally Knee
shakes his head, breaking the spell. Damn it, I have to go
finish my route. Would you. Rob just looks at him, Wait till
you get back new points a finger. You're the man, Robot. Moment
later, the large brown ups truck peels wheel out of the lot. Rob,
you take the paperback. You look around and take in the paperback,
exchange your inheritance from your mom smells just like comic print in nineteen sixty nine.
Like Carl, you smile as you look down at the comic in your
hands, wearing ink and color version of this very storefront stairs back. At
the top of the cover, the title Atari Twilight blazes fourth and at the
bottom in smaller fun it says co written by Ben Mackenzie and let Blake Mackenzie.
And as you look and nod just under one of the shelves between the
rows, in a spot near where a clown once broke your finger, you
see a crystal, and when you pick it up, the Mitchie talkie crackles.
Shannon, I'm really glad I waited for everybody to go first, because
this maybe works out. So Shannon, after spending a very short and brief
time with her father, just being and reunited with the mother as well,
they make a plan and they gather every single piece of evidence and information about
the loop, Mitch's research in the graveyard and everything, and they start basically
like a crime scene wall of everything that they could find, and they replace
everything in the garage with whiteboards and all the details copied over pictures of whatever
Mitch had previously written out that was still available, and they spend however long
it takes, figuring out where and when Mitch is and hope to bring him
back, and as you do this, getting information that will eventually lend itself
to once Mitch is discovered, finding how to get him, how to bring
him home, how to do the math in many ways, becoming Mitch to
find Mitch. Throughout that time with your father, I'd like to think that
there are times when she Ann is finally allowed well. Out along the interstate,
Shannon Locke rides her Harley North. Her long hair blows behind her,
and her entire presence is the very picture of nineteen ninety nine freedom over the
hills. She rides alive in the present and still respectful of her eventual,
eventful past, but not mired in it. She has no longer any desire
to be anything to anyone. Her fate is not predetermined. She's not forced
into choices she never wanted to make. That is the past. Now she
only has to be two things, a daughter and herself. Beside her another
Harley roars into view. Sean Locke. His hair shoulder length when not trailing
behind him, is streaked with gray. His frame beneath the denim has thinned,
but his smile is just as white and just as bright. Together they
ride through the countryside of Pennsylvania and into New York later that evening. Beneath
the stars, they sit beside a smoldering campfire, and they're cooling bikes there
near the farm that held the greatest music festival in history. Daughter and father
talk about the events of the day. Not once is there a mention of
a mad scientist, killer robots, or time travel, and it is not
information deliberately omitted it is genuinely forgotten. In that moment, at one point,
both look up into the sky, their eyes focusing on the same star.
They are stardust, they are golden, they are billion year old carbon,
And finally they got themselves back to the garden, my friends, if
Mitch is to be found, and there's only one thing left. Decades from
now, when the eighties are a channel on Sirius XM radio, Charlie lays
in the bed, the cancer moments from taking her her eighty year old eyes,
look at her husband, Mitch's unable to speak, she instead produces an
envelope from beneath her bed quilt. Written across the front, it says one
last adventure. In it says, among other things, gather the autobots and
find the first diver. Go back to the beginning, just like Inago,
says. The day of the funeral, the autobots gathered a farewell one of
their own. As Jay Charlie Mitchell is put to rest, it shows the
letter to his friends. There is a note for each of them, Ben,
Shannon, George, Rob and Jerry. It proposes the same thing,
one last adventure. They all agree. Through the woods around Garrett, they
march George carrying Rob, who is sick himself and unable to walk. The
autobots, old and near the end of their travels, help each other through
the woods. However, somewhere along the way the path gets easier. One
point, Rob has to be put down and finds he can easily walk on
his own, his legs strong, gray hair begins turning dark. Muscles weakened
by age grows strong. At one point they begin to run. The laughter
of youth fills the woods. George runs with his friends, not questioning their
metamorphosis, but simply allowing the tears to run down his face as he feels
more alive and he has in years. The autobots reached the lip of a
large valley, none now older than fourteen. Holding Charlie's urn, Mitch looks
into the valley and sees the object of their quest. His voice catches and
tears rush into his eyes. He quickly opens the urn as the wind catches
the contents, and he feels his hand filled. As Charlie puts hers in
his Doctor Holter Arkaville, the Good One stares into the valley. Jimmy,
Dutch and Knee rush up to look down Sam and Veronica Flank, George,
Jerry van Halen, and the Keystones gather. Maggie, Gary and sargeant Urico,
Mister Darry, Shawn Locke, Millie McKenzie and Carl Baker, all their
friends and family, all that ever walked in the Atari Twilight stared down into
the valley. At the first diver, Mitch whispers, there you are,
and the dinosaur stares back and into the sky shoots the raven, tears of
its own coming from its eyes. A brilliant light gathers, and all of
them are gone. And that is where we will end our series of Atari
Twilight. Well, there will be no outro tonight. You know where to
find us, you know where be Then I've got one last thing, Oh
ahead, no outros. This is the end. M Well, we have
one more thing, but I've got something to say before that. One more
thing, Mike, right for it. A brilliant light dims. A creature
of silky oil sits on a stump across from Maggie Arqueville. You've won.
Congratulations. I suppose this is farewell, Maggie. It has been in trim
and Maggie interrupts, double or nothing excuse me to double or nothing? Am
I to believe you would so readily wager that? Would you spent so long
winning? Perhaps you care less for your town than I realized. Garrett is
my life and my love eternal, and those that call at home are my
children. But there are other garrets and they need me too. What is
your wager, Maggie? May double or nothing? My Garrett, for all
the others. If you win, you get them all, including this one.
If I win, every garret in every world is closed to you for
all time. I know all of your tricks. You've played all of your
cards. Do you really believe you can best me? Without them, without
Rob, without Jerry, without George, Mitch Shannon? Can you truly beat
me? I believe in my kids? Oh, Maggie may how foolish?
Do we have a deal or not? We do? But don't say I
didn't warn you? So how does this work? Like the very best theater?
We take it from the top of dear friend, very well, from
the top. Why are you smiling? You don't know all of my tricks?
Goodbye, Garrett. I'd like to thank you for hanging with me all
this time. Many of you started listening to me last year, and that's
a heck of a commitment to a new DJ. We've seen and heard it
all with a soundtrack by the very best rock that's fit to spin the highs,
the lows, the laughs, the tears. We've been together through it
all. Garrett. Let me make a promise to you on this my very
first day of work at GO one oh six point one FM, Mountain,
Maryland's home of today's hits, I promised to be with you through thick and
thin and hopefully provide the soundtrack to the stories of your lives. The time
is now twelve twenty three on Tuesday, January first, nineteen eighty and the
temperature is a brisk eighteen degrees. Time and ten picture are brought to you
this evening by our friends at the Paperback Exchange, where you can always find
your legends and heroes just waiting among the rows. As we say goodbye to
the seventies, let's look forward to a new era, a new age.
I have a good feeling about the eighties, Garrett. I think we're all
going to fall in love with this whole decade. I believe it in my
heart. So if you would, why don't you sit back, smile,
and Darling Garrett walk awhile with me. You're listening to Go one oh six
point one FM for all the rock that's fit to spin. And for the
first time in the eighties, I am DJ Jackie m Rock and this is
my favorite song, A Little led Zeppelin Over the Hills and Far Away.
