be awesome.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I want to.
Speaker 3: See those those tune Guard Eighty dollars for box of
twenty is a little rough, but okay, I can get
behind it.
Speaker 1: Well, they used to be metal models for like forty
five to fifty bucks a box for ten, so and
at least I only have to buy one box, right,
so right, but not yet. But yeah, I decided I
think I'm gonna work on some Empire stuff because I
have so many Empire models that need to be built,
and I really don't want to spend money on a
new army right now, so I think the cast Wears
are gonna have to take a little break right now,
and my Wodolf army that I've been dreaming of will
have to wait for a little bit. So they were
just gonna fuck around with Empire. You know, I started
paying some stuff for old world. I just have to
tear them off the bases and put them on new ones,
which is fine. So I've already got like a unit
and a half two units done, so might as well
just go with that. I gotta go from there, so cool? Uh, Scar,
are you back?

Speaker 5: No, no, yeah, tonight's just going out to meet some
old friends and mutual friends, just at a bar tonight.

Speaker 4: So we're wielding. Uh, son of a gun.
Speaker 5: I think this got revealed when I wasn't here, but
he did officially revill. He's got four arms last episode,
cool stuff, and he can kind of heal. Okay, and
my heel, I mean I take your pain and and
I become pain.
Speaker 3: And yeah. Listening to some Papa Road or Lincoln Park, Yeah, yeah,
some my chemical romance.
Speaker 1: Yeah awesome wonderful. We're happy to have you here, Aaron Switcher,
your profile pictures triggering me. I can't handle it, and
uh yeah, well that's cool. Adam, how about you? Who
are you?
Speaker 7: I'm Adam. I am the game mass I'll be playing
everybody that you guys aren't playing. Yeah, yeah, I am
the world.
Speaker 1: We Uh, we spent the first like hour tonight listeners
actually spending experience. Turns out I can't do math. I
think we already knew that though, so I had way
more to spend that thought, and we all have a
ship a ton of money, but we spent. I think
everybody spent experience.
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, what did?
Speaker 1: What? Did everybody level up? Sean?
Speaker 3: I got a new spell called mind Probe.
Speaker 1: Okay, nice cool, Aaron? How about you?
Speaker 2: I spent I I kind of OpEd a few skills mostly,
and I opped my charisma, so I opped my demolitions.
I OpEd just in case I got bo something out.
I up my negotiation because I don't know I was. I.
I initially had him as kind of being not very
charming at all, but it turns out everybody likes him,
so I'm just gonna exactly. He's wonderful and yeah, I
did that. What else did I upgrade? Oh? I put
a couple of points into an exotic weapon so that
I can i and hit people with with the food
motion room. Nice.
Speaker 1: You must be like leveling up all level one stuff,
because I I leveled up like one thing and that
was like all my XP.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there were all skills I had like zero points in.
Speaker 1: Okay, good idea. All right, and Scott, what about you?
Did you spend XP or karma as they call it.
Speaker 4: No, I'm gonna hang on to it, take it to
my grave, good man.
Speaker 5: Worked, Yeah, because that's exactly it will happen if I
don't spend it soon.
Speaker 1: Yep, yep. Cool. Uh well, that's awesome. I spent it
to level up my agility, which in turn leveled up
all my gun skills. I'm now at my racial max
for agility, and I put one point into throwing weapons,
so I actually have skills in it. So that actually
jumped up by like two or three points because it
was at zero.
Speaker 7: So there you go.
Speaker 1: Any more grenades I have to throw should be a
little more accurate. So uh yeah, So I think it's
about it. I'm the great unclean one, your host, and
I will be continuing to play Uthrak, better known as Knuckles,
the Orc biker who loves guns and explosions and going
fast and is kind of the uh one of the tanks,
front line fighters of the group and uh yeah, Old
World is back. Pre ordered a bunch of stuff today.
Got all the books coming, a couple of card packs,
and uh, I've been painting some zombi side figs. Got
some some fatties I'm working on right now, trying a
couple different color schemes here and what else. Oh I finished.
I watched in its entirety the Netflix Residentievil series and
it turned out way better than I anticipated when I
first watched it. When it came out I think it
was in the summer last year. I would actually put
it up there as very good to excellent. Lance Reddick
fucking crushes it as Wesker.
Speaker 3: Everything he does.
Speaker 7: Oh my god, dude, I've been watching Fringe and like, dude,
Lance Reddick is what a tragedy dude like he he
was as every single thing I've ever seen him, and
he was awesome.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So it is actually a good piece of live
action residiable media. And the interesting thing is they don't
adhere to any of the like main stories really and
it's you know, there's things that have happened, like the
incident in Raccoon City, and you know, Wesker is a character,
and you have the Umbrella Corporation. But I was surprised
at how good it was for not leaning on original material,
because usually when they don't lean on original material, it's
a fucking dumpster fire. See also the other seven Residable movies.
But this series was great and they did a really
good job just making you want to know more about
what's going on with all the secrets and mystery. And uh,
the the woman, the actress who plays the like the
head of Umbrella, was really awesome too. She did a
great job. So I didn't care much for the main character,
but Wesker and and yeah, lady Umbrella awesome. So if
you haven't seen it, go check it out. I actually
do recommend it. I do Indorset. So the zombies were
a little eh, but everything with Wesker was fucking awesome,
So just go watch it. It's like watching the first
like episode of Star Wars, if it was just like
record and watch forty five minutes of Darth Maul over
and over and.
Speaker 3: That's that's awesome.
Speaker 1: That's kind of what it's like, so except there's no
Jarge or Banks, so it's already better. Anyway, Adam, what
are we doing tonight?
Speaker 7: For a brief For a brief moment, we're talking about
the movies that I watched, because man, I got to
watch some movies, which I I I love watching movies
and I haven't been able to do a lot of
it since I had my daughter, and I had an
opportunity to watch movies. And that's that's lovely. So first
the movie Barbarian, right the babe you seen this? No,
definitely not, Okay.
Speaker 4: I love Barbarian I've heard yes.
Speaker 7: Dude, yes, watch it. Don't ask what it's about, don't
read what it's about. Just watch it. Go into it
completely blind and you'll love it more fantastic. So I
did the same thing like when I was working like
way back all right, hear me out. I'm really fucking old.
When I was working at Blockbuster back in the day,
one of my coworkers was like, you got to watch
this movie hard Candy and know, like what's it about.
He's like, don't ask, just watch it, And I was like, Okay, man,
I will and like, whoo, that's the only way to
go into that movie. But uh yeah, Barbarian fantastic. I
watched Everything Everywhere all at once. Top five favorite movies
of all time. Oh fucking great, great, absolutely amazing. Dude.
There's a scene where these dudes are like battling to
try to get things into their butts in order to
get like special kung fu powers. Holy shit, what a
great movie.
Speaker 2: Yeah no, that is one of my favorite movies. Oh
my god.
Speaker 7: Yeah, Dark City. I watched Dark City.
Speaker 4: That's a good one.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, dude, Oh yeah, oh yeah, I haven't seen
that one in a very long time. Great movie. Highly
recommend it if you like uh, you know, weird like
neo noir things. You know, key for Sutherland's character, Like
his acting was really really ridiculous, but you know, the
movie was great. And uh it's got the guy that
played riff Raff in Rocky Horror Picture Show. So there
you go. All right, So with that out of the way,
let's play some shadow run. Huh. It's about the hour
after our start time. Let's go.
Speaker 4: So we left dark Oh sorry.
Speaker 7: Uh, in my heart he will always be alive. But
uh I think so I think so. But anyhow, so
let's go. Let's play shatter Run. Right, So we left off,
you guys had just made your daring escape, and it
wasn't really a daring escape. It was it was a drive.
But you drove away from Boise, Idaho. It's about an
eight hour drive if you go NonStop, but you guys
had to make a couple of stops along the way
because no one can do eight hours like that. So
you guys, it took you guys about like nine and
a half. Right, you had to stop, You had to
fill up for gas a couple of times. You had
to you know, get you stop at a cracker barrel
because that's important on a road trip.
Speaker 4: So good, so good? What's what's rock with you?
Speaker 2: So good?
Speaker 7: It's regardless of whether you like it or not, you
have to do it on a road trip. So you
stop off with the cracker barrel. You guys get some
biscuits and gravy, and you know, you play the little
game with the pegs, and you know there's some rocking chairs.
You guys take a couple of goofy pictures in the
rocking chairs outside with your your calm links and stuff,
and you guys have a good time and it's playing
like a you know, an eighties montage song, as you
guys do that. But one of the cool things that happens, well,
you guys are stopped off at the Cracker barrel Ford's
food like is is good, but like you you know,
as you eat, you get this rumbley in your tummy
and you go and you blast a terrible duke in
the bathroom, right and it's like like a troll sized
duke and like a man sized toilet and like you
hear something hit the toilet and like you look and
like you see that bullet. Get past it.
Speaker 8: Nice to Jimmy, you get you get like immediately back
like just a whole bunch of fucking emojis, and like
him like a picture of him sitting in the booth
with like a big thumbs up and like, uh, he's like,
what are you gonna name?
Speaker 7: It is what he sends you in a text, But uh,
you guys make it back. You guys get back into
Seattle and like the good news is that they're not
looking for you anymore, apparently because this one guy said
he worked alone, the guy with the cool shades. You
guys are able to see anyboy gonna look up any
of that kind of stuff, looking up the news or anything.
Speaker 1: I definitely would because I'm very suspicious.
Speaker 7: There we go, finally somebody's checking out the news. So
you look into the news and you know, there's this
whole thing they got him in, Like there's video of
him like like confessing to it. He's like, no, I
worked entirely alone. It's like I did it because I
hate the man, And you know, it's like all this bullshit,
and like you see video footage from it, and like
it looks like it's possible this guy was operating alone
from from the edits of the video footage that you
see in the news reports. But you know, they say
that they're locking up for a long time. They call
him the the King Dome Gasser, and like they try
to peg him for or pin him for a bunch
of other gassings that have happened. And they don't peg him.
That's a different thing. I'm sorry, but they try to
pin a bunch of different gassings on them, and they're like,
you know, mad gas are on the loose, and you
see all these other reports of people believing that they've
been gassed but it's all bullshit. Nobody's running around gassing people.
But all these people are like, oh my god, I
was having a party at my house and I couldn't
feel my feet anymore, and then I realized that somebody
had gassed me. But it's all bullshit. Anyhow, that looks
like you guys are in the clear. It says, you know,
case closed. They don't talk about it anymore. So the
footage that you're looking at is from a couple of
days ago, and you know they're over it. There's a
little bit of news about what's going on inside the
skyer I'm sorry, the ACHE. Pardon me, it's the ACHE now.
And you know, they say that they've restored order. Mostly
there's reports still coming in from the upper levels of
animals roaming the halls, but the mall is clear and
the mall is safe, so you know, they're having like
all sorts of different promotional deals. If you're trying to
shop at the mall, they say like, don't worry. The
animals are no longer in the main portion. They're up
in the upper levels with all the poor people. You guys,
come on in.
Speaker 1: The gorillas are still fighting their liberation war, that's amazing.
Speaker 7: Yeah, man oh man, yeah, yeah, they're they're setting up
strongholds on floor thirty nine. So that's Gorilla Town. But
you know, the mall is open again. You know, the
zoo is open. They say that they're they're cloning new
gorillas now, so there should be Gorilla soon. But the
roller coasters back open, no problem. Let's see what else
do you guys see in the news. Rash of disappearances
from corporate executives is still ongoing. That's that's something that
is a little weird, but you know that's happening. That's
about it for the news. You know, nothing too crazy.
But you guys get back into town, and as you
get into the in the city limits, so I'm guessing
you guys probably went back in the same way you
got out. So you get back towards that sewer thing,
you drive through and you come out the other side,
you have ferry across back through the rats Nest, and
you know you've got an opportunity. You guys need to
talk to the guys of the rats Nest at all.
Do you have anything that you need to talk to
him about?
Speaker 2: I don't no, and for but probably avoid talking to them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't really want to go towards the cool town.
Speaker 7: Okay, good, so yeah that's they still you. You get
back in through that way, and you know, you got
you know, Chrysler meets you guys again as you get
into into range and guides you through the sewers, and
you guys ferry across and uh, you know, you get through.
Everybody you know waves at you as you drive away,
and then you know they see some some tong dudes
coming up and they open up with machine guns. You
guys drive fast and like everybody's having a nice laugh
and you you get back in and as you're in town,
you get almost immediately entering the city limits, you get
a message. It's about two pm at this point. By
the way, you get a message says four pm. It's
from mister Johnson, all right. Basically as soon as you
cross the city limits. So you get that message, you
also get contact from Jimmy and Jimmy so you he's yeah, yeah, yeah,
I found a new place to hang out. I got
this place. It's called the Retirement. You know, it's a
couple of miles away from my last place. But you know,
let's riff rath in here if you know what I mean.
So if you guys need anything, you know as where
you're gonna find me, come on down. No skirt steak here.
But they got a killer killer. It's like they use
what it's it cause mica protein that's made out of
mushrooms to make like reconstituted like mushroom caps that are
fucking great.
Speaker 3: Cool. So I guess we should get over to the
Alabaster Maiden at four pm.
Speaker 7: They way of anywhere else that they'd like to go
before heading to the Maiden.
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not sure how much you want to
RP this, but I mean, for what does it his dog?
He's been gone for like a week or more.
Speaker 7: So are you dropping everybody off or you going everybody
in the car?
Speaker 2: I don't know. I park in front of my house.
I'll say, like you can come back three three thirty.
I'll see you in an hour and a half. Uh.
Just like it's one of those things where it's like
we all like kind of live on the same street
so they can walk home. Yeah.
Speaker 7: Yeah, you guys are all pretty close together. You guys
are in the same neighborhood. You know, it's a maybe
like a ten to fifteen minute walk between your burnt
out building and where the garage is. So you get
back to the garage, the fellow's garage, and as you
roll up, you hit your your little button to roll
up your your bay. It doesn't go up. You hit
the button a couple more times, and it's it's not responding.
I go into the office and as you head towards
the office, you look at give me a perceptual. Perceptual,
let's do this.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm not very good perception, but I'll do it
just for you, Adam.
Speaker 7: Thanks buddy, appreciate you.
Speaker 2: All right, I only roll one dice, right, so.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I guess yeah, you gotta Oh my god.
All right, so yeah, you uh, you head towards the office,
and as you do, you're not looking where you're going,
and you slam straight into this dude. And this guy
he's wearing like a suit. He's in a black suit.
He's got like a like a thin black tie, white shirt.
He's got black sunglasses on, and you see he's got
like a like a fucking thing in his ear that's like,
you know, a coyly cord that goes down and like
tucks into like his collar and runs on his back
and you slam into him. And the dude's like, why
don't you watch for your going pal?
Speaker 2: And uh, there's sweet as that you says something you
could just thick door's them, you know.
Speaker 7: The dude brushes some dust off and like walks away,
and then he gets into a car and you see
that the car's got rental plates on it. You pick
that up right away. You're familiar with it. You see
it's got rental plates, and uh, it's a little weird.
It's black sedan rental plates. Whatever. Guy had a black suit,
black tie, black shades, ear piece, you know whatever. But
he gets back into that car and you go and
as soon as you step in the door, the little
bell rings. It's an old school bell that's like physically
getting hit by the door and ed ing ding ding,
and you see your boss and your boss is looking
at you with this he's got this face like he's

Speaker 7: About half hour?
Speaker 1: How far is Hannah's do I know for it or.
Speaker 4: I'll ask you.

Speaker 7: I imagined, and this could be totally off, but I
imagined that they live above the shop.
Speaker 2: That's fair. I mean, I mean, yeah, I hadn't really
planned it, so that's as good as any I'll send
and tell me if I need to make a role,
I'm gonna try and dumb me, like or clone my
phone so that doesn't look like it's coming from my phone.
If I can do that and send a text to
Hannah asking if Sasha is.
Speaker 7: With her, you can. You can hit a stuffer shack
and grab a burner real quick.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, yeah.
Speaker 7: That's easy when you're when you're talking about doing difficult
getting a burner real quick and easy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll get a burn and I think that's like
two hundred or something.
Speaker 7: That sounds about right. So you have the stuffer shack.

come home from school. I've been looking.
Speaker 1: Ask her, uh if she's checked with the school.
Speaker 2: Did you call school? Did you call the school?
Speaker 7: Of course I checked the school. She got on the bus.
I guess she got off somewhere else and I haven't
seen her.
Speaker 10: The bus.

says I don't know who that is in the text message.
Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough.
Speaker 3: Her phone's being tapped probably.
Speaker 5: So.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then he'll he'll throw the phone out of
the window.
Speaker 7: Yeah, hits the ground explodes into like a million pieces
and then you managed to do a sick burnout and
shred the what's left of the same guard.
Speaker 4: There you go, everything hunger force, everything explodes that that
they're on the ground.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't have to animate it anymore.
Speaker 2: Dude.
Speaker 7: Oh my god. Samsung had this this streak while I
was working at this one corporation that everything that they
made exploded. It was their phone, it was their fucking
washing machine. But that was great. That was good times. Anyhow,
another side story, let me interrupt you.
Speaker 2: Guys.
Speaker 7: I had this guy that I worked with when I
worked at a video game store that like, the district
manager was like, don't you get the emails? And this
guy's like on my phone and the district manager's like yeah,
And he pulls out his phone and it's like this
old flip phone and as he flips it up, it
fucking falls apart in his hand into like twelve pieces.
He's like, oh shit, with the fucking battery slides across
the floor to That guy was my favorite. That guy
would he'd like fall asleep at like all of the
district meetings, Like he'd like take a nap and he'd
be snoring and shit. That guy was my hero. I
hope he's still a lot better if you're still out there.
If you're still out there.
Speaker 2: Rich, Wow, you remember a chef's kiss of a person?
Speaker 7: Yeah, dude, he was fucking hilarious.
Speaker 2: All right, sorry going Uh so, Yeah, I will arrange
to pick everyone up, and I will encourage you guys
to not go home, and I definitely don't go home,
but yeah, I'll arrange a spot to pick up the
three of them if they're all coming.
Speaker 1: My Mike man, I met up.
Speaker 7: Backward the other the other two that you pick up. Uh,
you guys are outside of a stuff for shack. Yeah,
you guys stopped off to get whatever snacks. There's a dude,
damn Gustavo that works in there, and he's like cus drugs. No, No,
I'm good right on if you if you need any
or you know anybody it does.
Speaker 3: Are you trying to sell or buy or.
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: You know I'm most yeah, wow, Okay.
Speaker 7: Yeah, you guys leave and you guys get in the car.
By the way, every stuffer shack is the exact same layout,
and from your experience, it seems to be the same
employee at every stuffer shack is fucking bizarre.
Speaker 3: Let's Dosavo. They're already cloning, you know, gorillas, so it
makes sense.
Speaker 1: Oh, those are probably extinct at this point.
Speaker 2: Isn't that also the same guy that like was bugging
you about the mascot suit, Like, yeah.
Speaker 7: It was the guy at the stuffer shack where he
picked up the mascot suit. Yeah, dude, it's fucking Gustavo.
Speaker 2: He works.
Speaker 7: He seems to work at every stuffer shack.
Speaker 1: All right, fuck Estava, let's focus. All right, let's go
to the Ford, Let's go to this meeting, and then
we'll go find your daughter.
Speaker 4: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I I am. Oh that's hard because I
know that I wouldn't go to a meeting if my
daughter was kidnapped.
Speaker 3: What are the chances that the f guy also got
to the Johnson and we're about to get like gadded
by some swap tat team.
Speaker 1: Well, then there's going to be a dead swap tat
team by the end of the day.
Speaker 12: Okay, pretty balls, more grenades, clearly, I mean, that's that's
been the solution to every problem.
Speaker 7: I haven't met a problem I wouldn't throw a grenade at.
Speaker 4: This is a bit of a difficult decision. My nature
and has been inclined to say fuck the Johnson and
help you.
Speaker 2: But I say we send we send them Bolt alone. Yeah,
that's okay. He goes to see no if if if
because Bolt has always been our best negotiators. So if
he goes and deals with Johnson and then it fills
us in on the task after.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but if it is a trap, we don't want
to be split.
Speaker 4: Mm period.
Speaker 1: If we're splitting, we're going to and two. Otherwise we're
all going to one place.
Speaker 7: If you're all of your meetings with mister Johnson have
been pretty quick, I'm.
Speaker 1: Gonna yeah, that's the thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fair. And to be honest, it might be
one of those things where where like you can brow
beat him enough. He needs your help right now, so yeah, hey,
maybe he can help us.
Speaker 6: Look, look, what would you even do immediately? You need
more information to find your daughter.
Speaker 2: I'm going to find doctor Doom. I'm gonna strangle why
not because I know where he lives. I'm gonna strangle
him until he fucking finds my daughter.
Speaker 4: This is his fault, one way to go about it.
But hear me out.
Speaker 6: If you're their phones are being tapped in there looking
for you. You could compromise him as well.
Speaker 2: I hope he does. I hope he fucking dies.
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, uh.
Speaker 1: I know I'm not always the sharpest box of marbles
in the shed. But did I did I miss something
with doctor Doom here that I'm not catching up with
your picking?
Speaker 2: Jimmy. Jimmy told us he sold he sold the pay
data first job. That's why the FBI, and that to
be why the FBI is after it, because I don't
think anyone gave a shit about the guns. I think
they care about what he took and what he sold.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't follow you.
Speaker 2: He sold trade secrets.
Speaker 1: M what does he do with us? We stole prototype weapons?
I don't, I don't. Well.
Speaker 2: We also we also were part of the people who
came in and took that pay data. I think there
were have.
Speaker 4: A face on the whole issue. He they don't know him,
but that we've they've got a face on us. We're
on national television.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah.
Speaker 3: Also, the guy who took the fall for our last
job did at one point directly meet with Ford and
it was like posted on the videos, right, So he
might have tried to blame you too.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 6: I'm just saying, even if he even if this one
guy took the fault too, they're gonna know that we
shot him with the They're.
Speaker 2: Gonna know what's going on. Let's go see Johnson.
Speaker 3: I don't We'll go talk to him. Find doctor doom
Wave Virgin to give us more info.
Speaker 6: Yeah, take some time for word cool off. Let's go
ahead this meeting, knock it out and then get a
game plan.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, And he just kind of guns and he
starts to drive. You're in the car on the city.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, he literally he puts a hand on you.
Speaker 3: He puts a hand.
Speaker 4: No, I'm running, I'm jogging outside.
Speaker 3: He puts a hand on your shoulder.
Speaker 4: And he said, she's gonna be okay, we're gonna find her.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Ford just does one of those big shrugs
that kind of throws her hand off of his shoulder.
Ah yeah, yeah, that's it's fine. Whatever, And he just
kind of drives.
Speaker 4: You guys drive, just wanted to I just wanted to
feel your muscles.
Speaker 7: They are Robie. So you guys drive, and as you're driving,
like it's Ford's head is so fucked up right now
that you miss your turn, which has never happened before.
You miss your turn and then you have to end
up like looping back and you like, you know, do
an extra block and you end up getting there. You
get to the door, and you know it's four pm,
just before four when you guys arrive, and you know
the same situation. Front door is locked. You know, you
got the side entrance, you got that troll outside, and
he you know, he's he's like, you guys know the
deal by now?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I need to know about four Just
handsome a gun.
Speaker 7: It's like, all right, thank you. And it's like you
got that hammer still.
Speaker 3: Pull it out out of my jacket, yes, sir, so yeah, I.
Speaker 7: Figured you would. There you go, and the swords, you
got all those here, here's the bass. Get buddy, just
unload all your fucking grenades and guns and all that
shit that you got to toss it in there. And
after you guys unload, he does the pat down. So
if you guys aren't trying to smuggle anything in there,
you guys can progress inside. Anybody trying to sneak anything
in Nope, no, cool, cool, all right? So you know
he grabs all your ship, puts it back in the
safe thing whatever. And then you guys head in. You
head through the hall, down the hall, through the kitchen.
The guy, the orc guy, the the prep cook sees
you guys, gives you the nod and kind of gestures
with his head a little bit towards the hall, and
you guys head down that hall. You go to the
end and there's the door that's closed at the end
of the hall.
Speaker 3: All right, let's do this, so you guys have this. Yeah,
just go in.
Speaker 7: It says ah, Welcome back. I hope your vacation was peaceful.
Speaker 1: That's all right. Thanks.
Speaker 7: I I'm sorry about the confusion with our last arrangement.
I spoke to an associate and things have been dealt with.
Should not happen again. Now I have an urgent matter
for you. It's very fortuitous, I believe, is the term
that you arrived back when you have there is a
asset that needs to be secured immediately. My employers prepared
to pay ten new yon apiece.
Speaker 4: For this job, and you give us details on what
the asset is.
Speaker 1: It is a.
Speaker 7: Mobile asset. The facts three mobile assets to be specific.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna lean in and whisper to Forde, maybe you
can instead of getting the Nona, and maybe you can
get this guy to help look for Sasha. He's got.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll speak up. My daughter was apprehended, perhaps by FBI,
by somebody. She did not come home from school.
Speaker 7: I need everybody give me perception role.
Speaker 1: I like making roles.
Speaker 3: Yeah skills.
Speaker 2: Oh I got one success.
Speaker 7: See critical glitch. Oh that's something else that was the
last one waits No, no, no, that's that's both perception
roles to in a row critical glitch, critical glitch.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, never mind. Sorry, I saw bolts and
I thought was zero.
Speaker 1: Success is gross?
Speaker 7: M okay, so wow Ship seven dus Mantis, you pick
this up. Only Mantis picks this up for a brief moment.
Mister Johnson's just his face barely for a brief moment,
betrays him and reveals a look of shock. You catch that,
No one else catches it. Uh geez, I don't even
know how to handle a critical glitch. In this case.
We're gonna we're gonna you know what, Oh yeah, absolutely yeah.
It's gonna fucking get you sometimes. So yeah, you noticed
a look of shock, just just like a micro expression.
When he mentions the FBI, he says, uh, I'm sorry,
are you Are you taking this job? I need to
know before I give you any further details.
Speaker 2: I will take this if you find my thought. That's
my payment, That's what I asked for.
Speaker 7: This, this is this is not my expertise.
Speaker 3: I am.
Speaker 4: Does it surprise you that this happened to us? Uh?
Speaker 2: It seems this this is uh but not.
Speaker 7: Within the parameters of our uh business plan. I'm sorry,
I uh m hm. I I am an intermediary. I
believe it is the term I I I uh, And
he seems a little nervous. This is this is outside
of the uh m hm scope of operation.
Speaker 3: For my role.
Speaker 7: Now, I I have no means to locate a missing person.
I simply I'm a liaison, I believe is the how
you say any gestures towards the troll.
Speaker 12: You might be a liaison, but you surely have connections
with people who might be able to help us.
Speaker 1: Not to mention, you've also negotiated with us before about
the pay. Why all of a sudden the change of heart.
Speaker 7: I have a discretionary budget. This this is flexible. My
scope of work is not.
Speaker 4: Let's is in a difficult situation. I don't think we
can expect or.
Speaker 6: Friend here to work at full capacity knowing his daughter
is missing as a result of one of our jobs.
Speaker 7: In fact, this is not my concern, my concern, and
this is a time sensitive matter. If you will not
take this job, I will find another team that will.
Speaker 4: And just looks at the others.
Speaker 1: Your call forward. I'm good either way.
Speaker 2: How time sensitive? Do we have to leave right now?
Speaker 7: That would be best. After the briefing, you will head
to the destination and procure and secure these assets.
Speaker 2: You'll know what we can put the calls out. We
can have information gathered while we do this. I'm probably
gonna need them.
Speaker 1: You sure, very good.
Speaker 2: Let's not talk about this in front of this businessman.
He is limited in his scope.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, m.
Speaker 7: He kind of leans back in his high backed leather
chair and his cyber arm comes up like halfway like
almost to his face, and like out of like his forearm,
like a fucking little mechanical thing like dispenses like a
cigar into his hand, and then he holds it up
and then like another thing comes off the palm of
his hand and lights it, and he starts to smoke
a cigar. Super fucking cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, out of character, I'm trying my back. I'm trying
to say not say no to the you know the
question appreciate. So I'm just like, yeah, you know what,
Like I can just put out feelers and spend a
bunch of money and hopefully someone will have information for
new wonward.
Speaker 7: Right. Most likely this job will be very quickly done,
and there there will be a holding period, of course,
but the actual action should be very brief, at which
point you can get back to whatever your uh personal problem.
Maybe yeah, okay, and he ashes the cigar tiptap.
Speaker 1: All right, what are we waiting for.
Speaker 3: Let's go, Well, we need more information on the job.
Speaker 7: Yeah, tat, you got enough, go for it. So okay,
So once you guys accept the job, he uh kind
of leans back again, and he seems to relax a
little bit, and he slides a chip across his desk
again like he's done before. He says, your target is
a woman two children there to be procured, kept safe,
not harmed. And he looks when he says that, he
looks directly into knuckles soul unharmed.
Speaker 1: Wait, you think I'm sort of some sort of sick
fucking can hurt a kid.
Speaker 7: Hold unharmed. I will contact you in likely two days,
possibly three, Hold them, see to their well being in
the meantime, at which point money will be delivered to you.
Speaker 2: Are these people do they know what are coming? No?
They do not?
Speaker 7: Kay?
Speaker 3: Yeah, what kind of resistance can we expect? Are they
currently heavily guarded.
Speaker 7: Or currently they are unguarded? However, there's a possibility that
there will be another team dispatched to attract, attract them,
to extract them. That is why time is of the essence.
You must hurry now, h retrieve them before another team arrests.
Speaker 2: On this chip.
Speaker 7: You have their address, dossier on them, and then advance. Okay,
so make a negotiation role. That's going to determine your advance.
Speaker 3: It's got the highest negotiation I've got.
Speaker 7: I think it's you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's good. I have a three rating, so seven.
Speaker 7: Okay, you know what You're who's got the lower pool?
Speaker 3: I have a two rating, but a six.
Speaker 7: Chartisma, So you've got a seven pool.
Speaker 2: Let's eight.
Speaker 3: Six plus two is eight?
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know what, You're right?
Speaker 1: Seven? You know fine?
Speaker 3: I feel I mean, I don't want to disagree with this.
Speaker 4: Let's just make it a cool Let's just make it
a cool ten.
Speaker 3: Yeah, smooth and easy.
Speaker 7: What do you mean?
Speaker 1: All right?
Speaker 7: So, uh for the listeners that didn't get that, they're
not privy to our discord conversation. Uh, I told these
guys in between sessions how much karma they were going
to get. One of them is like that seems a
little bit low, and I'm like, fine, I'll give you
fifty percent more and then uh he says, I'm just
making a joke, and I'm like, fine, another two karma
highest all goes fifteen and uh yeah, so oh yeah, yeah, anyhow,
uh yeah, so uh whatever, you got eight? Who's what's
what's the other pool?
Speaker 4: Mine is seven?
Speaker 7: Okay, So so scar Mantis, roll your negotiation first. Any
hits you get are gonna be a dice pool bonus.
We're gonna do a teamwork thing, a dice pool bonus for.
Speaker 2: The other because I got yeah.
Speaker 7: But oh yeah, you got five? Yeah, dude, go for it.
Speaker 4: Why is that so high?
Speaker 2: What mine?
Speaker 4: Mine?
Speaker 7: Because you got a lot of charisma?
Speaker 1: Man, no charismatic?
Speaker 2: Okay, to successes?
Speaker 7: Two successes? All right, so let's see we got three one? Wait,
I thought you had the high pool. I thought you
had the.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, it says you seven ranks in negotiation. I
think that you put seven there.
Speaker 4: I think I have a bonus where there shouldn't be
a bonus.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, because you said you had three negotiations, it
should be okay, fine, you just get caught, you know
on the screen. Wow, god damn, you.
Speaker 2: Rolled another D six and see if you get three success?
Speaker 3: Okay, you brought you are.
Speaker 2: Cheating.
Speaker 3: You got to write the first time?
Speaker 7: Nope, just to Okay, so what we got we got four?
Is that is that the answer?
Speaker 2: No, the final for volt's role is to successful.
Speaker 7: Okay. So seven hundred extra new yah as an advance
because like you know, this should cover your gas. Okay,
probably not, but can you believe it's seven hundred dollars
a gallon? But anyhow, Yeah, he gives you. He gives
you an advance to cover your you know, your expense
that you may need. You got the address. Who's gonna
slot the chip?
Speaker 2: Ford? Well this time?
Speaker 7: Because if it's ok yeah, you got the address. It's
an Auburn. It's a little bit of a trick, but
you guys can get up there pretty quickly and Uh,
it's this is basically like a suburbia.
Speaker 3: So let's get I'm the way there. Volt will call
Jimmy and ask him to set us up a safe house.
Speaker 7: He's like, yeah, yeah, I got I got a place.
Speaker 1: I got place.
Speaker 7: He Uh, you're not gonna believe it, but I got

the dossiers while we're on the way.

out in a little bit of a rush. And as
you're driving towards the destination again, you know, Ford's head
is spinning. You got all this shit going on, and
you're trying to run through place. Where do you think?
Where do you think Sasha might be?
Speaker 2: So both Aaron and Jock believe that she might have
been picked up by the FBI, and and is actually
kind of hoping that's the case, but it is also
not one hundred percent sure, just because it just seems
kind of weird that she got on the bus and
off and so oh there's there's a few people. I
suppose I hope it's not that. Sorry, I just I
just realized, I'm like, what if it's coarse air? But
I don't know why he would do it. But he's
going to send a message to doctor Doom and he's
just gonna say, Sasha me lared five years old. We
need to contract.

says it gives you an address. It says, meet me
here in half an hour.

a response that motherfucker? Oh god? Why would you do this, Adam?
We're supposed to Okay, how long would it take for
me to get there? How long would it take for
us to kidnap someone and then go there?
Speaker 7: These are the questions you're asking yourself as you're driving
towards this job. You miss again, you missed the exit
on the highway that you're supposed to take, and you
end up having to do the fucking clover leaf to
get back. But as as this is going on, you
get what's going on? What's bugging you?

Speaker 1: Mmm, well that's easier. They're just like making a button
pressing gesture.
Speaker 7: Could well, but nobody knows what the hand crank window is.
It hasn't been around for one hundred years. It's like
it's like telling someone to hang up the phone now,

be able to take her down like, like quietly quickly?
Just knock her unconscious, getting her in the car like
we can take kids, but we don't need her fighting

Speaker 3: I was thinking more of a zip tie kind.
Speaker 7: But okay, yeah, they got both. They got both.
Speaker 3: Are you just upped your charisma forward? So maybe you
can seduce her into the car?
Speaker 7: I don't know they got they got a weird I

they got like you know, the pink fur on them.
But then like, uh from the chain, from the chain,
there's like a longer chain with a uh oddly shaped
butt plug attached. I don't know, I don't know what
the plan is with that, but it's available.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so we got some zip ties.
Speaker 7: Yeah, uh, okay, you guys stop off. You guys stop
off at a stuffer shack. There's a dud Dan Nostavo
working there and he's like something and you guys get
you know, your your handcuffs and whatever. What what else
do you guys need?
Speaker 4: There's zip tie cuffs, gas masks, and tear gas arrows.

Speaker 1: Fair, I got, I got the gas grenades.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 4: Wait, it's having to incapacitate if quickly is the idea?
We want to just shock? Go ahead?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't do they sell tasers at the patagas

Speaker 7: Supper shake. Absolutely.
Speaker 4: I just wanted to wear a gas mask.
Speaker 2: Hm. You can borrow with rocks look like.
Speaker 4: Praying mantis.
Speaker 7: Psychomantis Psycho, thank you.
Speaker 4: We'd look at your memory card saves.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that was so fucking cool. Oh my god, you
like Cavana right, Yeah? That was like how does he
know that I love Castlebaba?
Speaker 4: It was perfect, the perfect imitation.
Speaker 2: Of it too.
Speaker 1: I can read it to your mind.
Speaker 3: I think the game this isn't Cocain.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Psychoman.
Speaker 5: If it was nowadays, it'd be like, why is there
so much HINTI games.
Speaker 1: Modern Warfare thirty six.
Speaker 2: Do that?
Speaker 7: Like, oh my god? When I played that, that blew
By the way. Metal Gear Solid was the first video
game that I bought with my own money, and like
I saved up for it, Like I played there was
like a PlayStation magazine, like fucking demo disc and I
had it on there, and I played the demo for
it like over and over and over, and I was
like this is the I'm like, this is the best
video game that's ever existed. Like the graphics are so
real and you look at it now and dude doesn't
even have eyes, but like, it fucking blew my mind.
And I saved up money and I bought that game.
I think I was in like fifth grade or something
when that came out and like, dude, that game was
fucking awesome.
Speaker 1: Awesome. You buy games with your money and you're fucking disappointment.
Speaker 7: Yeah that happens.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got I've got gas grenades.
Speaker 2: Like what do they do?
Speaker 1: Hold on, let me look, I just made sure I
think I have smoke gerdades too. I just made sure
I had a diversified portfolio.
Speaker 7: You know, yeah, your portfolio.
Speaker 4: I would be up the up the alley.
Speaker 1: Uh, gas grenade instead of exploding the gas grenade at
least a cloud of gas over the area with the
radius of ten meters. This is usually a riot control
slash CS gas, but many other chemical or toxin payloads
can be chosen, such as toxins, drugs, and btls whatever that.
Speaker 7: Is better than life chips.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay. The cloud lasts for approximately four turns,
less and windy areas longer and confined areas at the
GM's discretion. So I didn't specify. I just assumed it
was like a smoke type gas grenade, you know, like,
so whatever the considered the basic one would be is
what I imagine I would have, because I do actually
have smoke grenades as well. Those are different.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it is normally is like CS gas or something.
Uh usually riot control slash cs gas. Yeah, so we'll
say CS gas is what you've got on there. So
that's like to your gas.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, what is CS gash?
Speaker 7: It is a power eight.
Speaker 1: Thing.
Speaker 7: The effects are disorientation, nausea, stun damage.
Speaker 2: All right, which is kind of what we're going for.
We're trying.
Speaker 3: I mean I can just unball them too, but their
kids overflow going to physical.
Speaker 7: You guys are having this conversation in the stuff for
Shack and Gustavo is like, you guys need drugs?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Do you have anything that would put people to sleep?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 7: Man, Like how long are you trying to sleep?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 7: Are you dogging like Chambian or are you looking for
something a little bit more? Uh? You know, uh, direct
you guys trying to party or are you guys just
trying to you know, sleep?
Speaker 2: I got the real trouble sleeping, and I need to
do it like instantaneously kind of what now what I want?
Yeah you got something like that?
Speaker 7: Uh? Yeah, yeah, I got some weird shit man. I mean,
if you guys like to party, uh, if you want
to go on like a crazy trip and immediately, you know,
go out. I got some shit. It's a little expensive,
you know, sleep yeah.
Speaker 1: Because I don't. I don't think this is the idea's Yeah,
I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't, but I will buy whatever you're selling.
Speaker 7: I'm just curious, yeah, man, I mean like if you
got like a grand I got, uh, just give it
to me. Here you go, man, right on, I'll figure
out what it is later.
Speaker 1: Are you secretly a drug addict? Bolt?
Speaker 3: Are you okay?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: No, no, I'm just very curious and we don't have
time to discuss this.
Speaker 7: You you get this thing and it's like, uh, it
looks like a CO two cartridge kind of thing. He's like,
you need an inhaler, Man, I got you, and like
he opens up like his he's wearing like the uniform shirt.
It's like a like a button out kind of like
it almost looks like like a bowling shirt, right, but
it says like stuffer shack the best place to stuff
your shack on it and uh, you know, it's like
it's like unbuttoned. He's got like a gold chain around
his neck, but he like opens it up and inside
he's like, I got puffers. If you need one, man,
you can just take this one. And he hands you
a puffer and like your thing will load into It's
kind of like an asthma. Haaler is what it looks like,
but like you know the puffers, you know it's it's
pink and like in yellow. It says ignite on it
and like it's like yellow and like looks like he's
made out of lightning. Bult says ignite with an exclamation point.
He's like, here's a puffer, bro totally clean on the house.
And he's like he goes one love pounds his chest
once and you get one hit of shade s a
h D shade. See, this ship will send you on
a trip man, far out trip, shit that I've never seen.
All right, last couple of hours, all.
Speaker 1: Right, are we done with the illicit substances for now?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 7: All right? And like before you go, he's like, hey,
green man, you load that capusule into one of those
greene it'll go off aerosol baby one love.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, I see you later.
Speaker 2: Bye.
Speaker 1: You guys, what a bunch of freaks.
Speaker 2: I hate that guy.
Speaker 7: I hate those guys.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah. And and Ford he's kind of not racing,
but he's going above the speed limit like reasonably, so
like you know how you can kind of get away
with a little bit over. That's what he's doing most
of the way there. But then when he gets to
the neighborhood, he's driving like like he's doing it manually
just in case he's got to do something crazy. But
he's driving almost exactly, like like the automated grade.
Speaker 7: Okay, so you're headed to the destination. It's at this
point about four pm. No, five pm?
Speaker 2: No, what did I say?
Speaker 7: You guys were meeting for six It's about six o'clock.
Sun's starting to go down, not yet, it's not its
way descending. You check it out real quick, just because
you're curious. You remember something about Sundown dealing with this
character before. At this point, Sundown's it like six point twenty.
You guys are there six pm. You get to the house.
It's looks like all the other houses in the picture
that you see here. It's two stories, but don't sweat
that it's only one. You know, one story, one love.
It plays back in your head, one love, one love Love.
What the hell does it mean? What is he saying?
Why do I keep seeing the same guy? Everything is
fucking weird. All of this shit. It seems connected somehow.
We robbed this place, use those items. Now suddenly I'm
dealing with the security person again. I never thought I
would see her. What is this? Why is this happening?
Where's my daughter? Why is the FBI here? Did they
take her? Did Doom take her? Why is Doom so
insisting on this timeline? What's happening? But you get there,
you arrive, it's quiet. There's synthetic birds flying around in
this neighborhood looks like a cardinal but you know, to
drone is flap around. It's part of the homeowners association.
It makes it look more friendly. The grass is all
perfect in all these lawns, trees, manicure and everything. Every
lawn looks identical. It's peaceful.
Speaker 3: You feel like.
Speaker 7: At home oddly, but at the same time, you feel
out of your own body, out of your skin, like
you're in some sort of peril little universe where people
have money and everything comes easy. That's not your life, baby,
but that's where you are. When you get there, we're
gonna transition to their next scene. That should all be
mostly blurred out for you, or like blacked out for
you guys. Yeah, Okay, you see the porch yep, and
then some shrubbery, some windows and ship.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 7: Cool. You arrive at the house. You haven't gone in,
you haven't gotten out of the car yet. Is there
any other preparations you want to do before you head in?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 1: See, you guys want to maybe scope this place out
or just kick down in the front door.
Speaker 3: I mean, she's a made so probably want to scope
it out a little bit, right.
Speaker 1: Oh, can you see if she's got any defenses, like
I don't know, magic alarms or anything like that.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Can I check it out magically and see if I
can sense any weird stuff?
Speaker 7: Okay, So you switch into your astral perception, you know,
you sit back and you kind of massage your temples
a little bit, and then your eyes film over real
fast and roll into your head, and you see in
the astrom neighborhood's peaceful. Everything seems peaceful. You can see peaceful.
The only emotions you're picking up in this neighborhood in general.
You see peace. You see boredom, and that's it. But
you look and you see all of the perfectly manicured
lawns and shrubbery and all of them. They seem alive,
but somehow muted, as if as if they're bored, as
if the grass itself is bored. And you see the
house the target man a barrier, whole fucking thing warded. Okay,
other houses in the neighborhood, No, nothing makes sense this
one warded.
Speaker 3: So what remind me what a man of barrier does? Exactly?
Speaker 7: It means that if you tried to pass through it
with spells active or while you're astrally perceiving or projecting, uh,
it is difficult. And if you do manage to penetrate it,
it will send an alarm to the person that put
up the barrier.
Speaker 3: Okay, but for your active it won't.
Speaker 7: It won't alert them correct if you go through unless
you're dual nature, if you're a ghoul and you try
to go in there, it's gonna fucking be a barrier.
But if you have no spells active and you're not
astrally perceiving, you can you can move through it like nothing.
You'll feel it because you're magically attuned to it, but
it's like, uh, you know, you'll get that shiver, but
it's not gonna do anything to you and you won't
trigger anything.
Speaker 3: Okay, but if you can ope out because it's man
of barrier, so correct, go back to the land of
the living. Yeah, she's still an age man of barrier.
Speaker 2: I say, to be honest, we can go and we
can talk to her. If we know somebody else is coming,
we could say we're here to take her to a
safe house to protect her. Just lie.
Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, we can give it a shot. A lie, yeah, right,
to keep them safe. Yeah, might work. Peaceful is always
better than kidnapping.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, especially because I would like to be able
to bring her equipment if the she's going to be
on the colner the whole time.
Speaker 12: Yeah, okay, let's do that. Yeah, maybe no offense bluth Rock.
You might now want to be like super visible.
Speaker 1: I'll scope things out from the street, keep an eye
on case, uh cases other team shows up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you'll.
Speaker 1: Probably hear me deal with that before I say anything.
Speaker 3: Now, if I cast invisibility on Newthrock and I walk
through the barrier, it won't act me, right because I
don't have a spell on me.
Speaker 7: Oh uh, that is a good question. I I'm not
sure I'm gonna say you'll be okay, Okay, I'm we
may be cheating, and I'm sorry if you're listening to this,
especially man, I forgot your name. But the dude, no, no,
not him, he's he's he's he's the guy that likes
all the stuff. The dude that pointed out my my foolishness.
I'm sorry you specifically, no different guy, different guys.
Speaker 2: We've got to comments.
Speaker 7: We got two of them, two of them, and any
any comments that are not either of these two guys,
uh me, So I comment on all of because I
think it's hilarious. So anyhow, yeah, yeah, dude, dude that
listened to the first episode and pointed out my mistake
about availability ratings, I apologize ahead of time. Let me
know that I'm wrong. I'll give you another shout out
and and i'll call you out by name. So hey,
by the way, thanks for listening. And I hope you
I hope I'm not destroying your sanity. So anyhow, I'm
gonna say no, I'm gonna say if you cast some
visibility on him and you go in, you'll be okay.
Speaker 12: All right, Luther Rock, I'm just gonna make you invisible,
so if people do show up, you can just you know,
geek him real quick, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're talking like you know, Vault you're a great guy.
I just want you to know that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, I appreciate that.
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure about you at first, you know, living
in that burned out building. But man, for Homos Skain,
you're pretty fucking cool.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 3: Thanks, lived a long life. I'm gonna pre edged ques question.
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Question? In Vault? Will that
make the bike invisible tour?
Speaker 5: Just me?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean double check.
Speaker 1: Let me ask the voice in the sky.
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna read that one object creature.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: If I'm sitting on the bike and we considered one
object slash one creature.
Speaker 13: Probably not do I emergine with my bike and become
one with it.
Speaker 3: If you are a Transformer, then I would say it
might be like that.
Speaker 7: That's different.
Speaker 2: No, you can do that in this game. You can
buy uh cyber upgrade that.
Speaker 1: You could also play Transformers RPG too.
Speaker 7: What Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I was talking about
the Transformers RPG, which I guess crosses over with the
g I Joe one.
Speaker 3: Yes, dude, Yeah, it doesn't look like it effects your
bike and the.
Speaker 7: Power Rangers one by the way and the Power Rangers.
Speaker 2: I just want to point out how awesome it is
and g I Joe versus Megatron just it's like, come on,
Joe's and then Megatron just fucking shoots him in the
face robot gun.
Speaker 7: Can we can we briefly just break off from what
we're actually doing and talk about Megatron for a minute.
This dude makes no sense to me, right for one, Like,
I get you know, he's he's in charge of the
Decepticons and shit, right, but he like turns into a gun.
He turns into like a pistol. So shouldn't he be
like real small and not huge like everybody else like him?
Like he turns into a gun that stars Scream holds
and shoots, and Starscream is a fucking jet, right, some
conservation of mass tells me that that Megatron should be
way smaller. And if if Starscream turns into a jet
and he can hold Megatron as a gun, like, Megatron's
probably about three times this size, maybe twice the size
of a human.
Speaker 1: Yeah, one of the sound waves cassette robots.
Speaker 7: Right, Like, yeah, I'm not sure what's going on there,
but uh, dude.
Speaker 2: It's the future, Okay, he's more closely related to the
All Spark him and Optimist Prime. They have more abilities
to control their size because of because because well because
they're like second generation like from the All Spark.
Speaker 7: Okay, okay, okay, so that's so. Does that Does that
still affect Ultra Magnus or no?
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know who ultramatic this is.
I just remember, all right, what.
Speaker 1: Well, let's table that because you know what any of this.
Speaker 7: I never through the movie. You never cried through the
Transformers movie every time I watched it. Oh my god, dude, guys,
you're bringing back.
Speaker 1: Memories.
Speaker 7: I'm gonna tell you the Transformers movie, the Transformersformers.
Speaker 2: Speaking of transforming, I'm going to transform this woman from
not kidnapped to kid boom.
Speaker 7: I think you're trying to wrangle my way. Let's get
back to shadow was.
Speaker 11: Yes, I know anything about Transformers make me invisible, and
I well, uh, I'll stand guard, uh somewhere outside the house.
Speaker 7: All right, I'm putting this on the list, by the way,
for the for the gen Con trip that we're everybody
has agreed to go to.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 7: I don't know if you guys know that or not,
but you've agreed to go to this gen Con trip.
We're gonna watch Transformers. We're gonna watch Transformers the trip.
Speaker 1: You got to touch you.
Speaker 4: You know, you guys might uninvite me from the meet up,
but not a Transformers fan.
Speaker 7: Dude, you're gonna change your mind. Let's get back to
let's get back to s all right, so uh all right,

Speaker 1: That's what it was.
Speaker 7: That's excellent sore edging. Yes something. Oh you're your invisibility spell?
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, got five successes.
Speaker 7: So so here's what happens. You guys roll up and
you guys are having your your discussions and your you're

You guys get out of the car. Let me get
a perception roll from everybody.
Speaker 2: No, I get a critical glitch.
Speaker 7: You get okay at this? Yeah? Yeah, we'll see what
happens here.
Speaker 1: Maybe you should have put a skill point in that
you can to not roll it if you.
Speaker 7: Want to not roll it.
Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't know that was an option. I would
have told you. Yeah, okay, well for successes. I got
zero successes, but not a critical clutch.
Speaker 7: So volts and ooth rock, both of you. You notice
neighbors peeking out of windows.
Speaker 1: Got a lot of luki lose fellas.
Speaker 7: I'm so happy you said, looky lou, That's what I

The motorcycle? But you guys, head up to the door.
The three of yous. Is it the three of yous? Yeah, yes, okay,
the three of you head up to the door. Knuckles.
You're sitting on the bike keeping a look out. You

Speaker 1: I do have uh some time invisible. I do have
my uh my pistol like unholstered just in case.
Speaker 7: Yeah, so you're invisible. You draw your gun. And there's
like this old lady and she's got those you know,
those like cat glasses, the cat eyeglasses where they come
to a point in the corners and like, and she's
got like the updal like the beehive, and she's looking
out the window and she sees you. She has well,
she doesn't see it. You're invisible. She sees your motorcycle
and she's like staring at it, and you can see
her like through the blinds. You point the gun at
her and you give her the finger and she's just like, hm, anyhow, Uh,
you guys head to the door. You go up and
it's you know, it's this uh wooden door. It's kind
of a like a blonde color. It's like a like
a white oak, and it's got at the top of
it three little glass panels. It's got it looks like
a little shelf below those three glass panels, and it's
got a door knocker on it. And there's also a doorbell.
Speaker 2: Ford's gonna ring the door.
Speaker 7: You ring the doorbell. After just a moment you hear
from the doorbell.
Speaker 2: Uh, yes, well, actually no, Ford won't say this because
he's not very good at these things. Well you explain it, Hi,
missus Murr.
Speaker 3: You'd like to talk with you. This a possible thread
on your life. We would like to help.
Speaker 7: Prevent I'm i'm. We're happy with our religion, thank you.

Speaker 3: We are here to try to help you because something
bad is gonna happen. We're trying to prevent it. H.
Speaker 7: Is this about the kidnappings?

Speaker 7: Oh my god. Howard said that something like this might
be happening. H.
Speaker 3: We want to take you to a safe flow.
Speaker 7: I have a gun. I have a gun.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'll use it.
Speaker 3: Right if someone tries to kidnap you, yes, I think
you should use it. But we're trying to prevent that.
So will you let us help you?
Speaker 7: Who do you do? You work for? Eagle?
Speaker 3: I'm not at liberty to say who we work for.
Speaker 7: Uh? Howard said, Eagle was gonna come.
Speaker 1: Can I hear any of this on COMMNS or anything?
Speaker 7: Uh?
Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, I'm gonna part my sweet ass glasses, so
they're already on me. I'm gonna look up what the
fuck Eagle is.
Speaker 2: That's the security that she works for.
Speaker 7: No, she hasn't worked for Eagle Security. She's a private contractor.
She works alongside Eagle Security to protect that.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 7: Gorties al Chemical is that what she's referring to. That
is most likely who she's referring to is Eagle Security,
third largest security contractor in North America.
Speaker 3: Ma'am, okay, we work for Ortiz Now Chemical and we're
here to protect you. Please let us say, are you
with salad?
Speaker 2: Kidnap?
Speaker 7: Are are you with as.
Speaker 3: I'm not at liberty to state who we work for,
but it doesn't pair for your children's safety. You let
us in, you.
Speaker 7: Said, children, Yeah, okay, all right, hold on and you're
like the dead bolt, the dead bolt, the chain, another chain,
another dead bolt, a dead bolt, another chain something. It
sounds like a safe vault. No, it's not all that.
But she unlocks the door and you guys are yeah,
so you see her. She's there. She's an elf woman.
She's you would estimate probably in her mid forties. She's
she's beautiful. You know, she's not so she's beautiful. She's
got long hair. It's kind of like almost like a
lavender color, but it's kind of like gray with a
little bit of a lavender tint. And uh, you know,
she's she's uh, she's she's beautiful. She's beautiful to behold.
She's got these stunning blue eyes, like like ice from Antarctica,
pure stares through you. Gorgeous. Her ears are pierced. She's
wearing a cool leather jacket. That gives you kind of
a vibe that she's a little bit dangerous but also
a little bit professional, sending you mixed signals. But you're like, Okay,
I can respect that jacket. That's how you feel. That's
your immediate instinct is I respect that jacket. Respect the jacket.
So she's there, and she's got in her hands currently
a gun pistol. Any of you guys know anything about
guns that are there?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have I hope numbers.
Speaker 7: Hit me with the armorer check real quick.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's under engineering wrong seven dice on that.
Speaker 7: Five successes hot damn mental limit five. You got five hits.
That is the best you could possibly do. She's got
an aries light fire seventy five. That gun, you know
immediately is illegal unless you work for some sort of
security firm that's got access to it. This thing's got
a built in silencer and you can tell from the
way that it's it's lighting up ever so slightly at
the barrel. This thing's loaded up with sticking shockgrounds that's
got She's like, yeah, I know, it's a nice gun.
Who do you work for?
Speaker 2: And come inside?
Speaker 7: Come inside. There's Howard said that this might happen. There's
and you're here to keep the kidnappers away.
Speaker 3: We're here to take you to a safe location. People
already know where you live.
Speaker 1: Oh no, oh no, oh no.
Speaker 7: There's been so many disappearances at the company, but so
many people taken.
Speaker 3: We can talk about that later. We need to get
your children and start moving because we need to take
them somewhere safe.
Speaker 2: I heard your daughter is needed special care.
Speaker 7: Uh did Howard contact you?
Speaker 2: We I don't know what the name we got that.
I didn't speak directly.
Speaker 7: Okay, all right, so you must you must, you must
be working with him. Nobody else knows that she's okay.
Speaker 3: We were told she was in at Homa for about
a year. So is she able to move or do
we need to move her? Can she be transported?
Speaker 7: No, no, no, she's she's in a coma.
Speaker 1: Oh she's.
Speaker 2: I couldn't sell her, but she can. She can break that.
She needs access to equipment.
Speaker 7: She and you, you guys, notice, give me a give
me one of those judge intention kind of roles. It's
under your attribute roles.
Speaker 4: Free successes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, one success. She's gonna shoot us. That's what's happening
right now.
Speaker 7: Okay, vault, you can tell she's she's on edge here
and and uh, she says she's not able to move,
and you can tell she's hiding something.
Speaker 2: Ms.
Speaker 3: Mark, we can't protect you and your children fully if
you're not truthful and honest with us.
Speaker 7: I would imagine that if if Howard sent you that,
you would have some idea of the situation.
Speaker 1: Mhm, hey, Adam, all this is going on. Could I
be looking through the dossier?
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, you're You're scrolling through.
Speaker 1: It, and I'm looking for anything about a. Howard.
Speaker 7: You see nothing about Howard.
Speaker 2: I know who Howard is a because you mentioned he's
the boss, like he's the the Eagle Security boss guy.
I remember you mentioned in that during that Make a
Memory roll, that was that.
Speaker 3: Something that Bolt would have learned when he was schmoozing
with the security guys make a Make.
Speaker 7: A Memory wrote both of you.
Speaker 4: Okay, shit.
Speaker 7: Two or the boss for Egle Security on that site
was named Eric Foreman. Oh because uh, when you guys
asked for a boss's name, I was like Eric, because
my boss in real life, my boss's name is Eric.
And I was like, oh, fuck, don't say your boss's name.
So I said Eric, and then I'm like, uh, he's
my foreman, Eric Foreman. I'm like, wait, fuck, that's good guy.
That's Eric Forman. Uh so yeah, Eric Forman was the
name of the boss for Eagle Security. Howard. You guys
have never heard the name Howard before unless wait, oh,
Franklin Nichols Volt you weren't in the right place for that.
Give me, uh, give me one.
Speaker 3: Uh you know what?
Speaker 7: Uh Ford you with your two hits, you've seen the
name now that you're thinking about it, Howard Murr. You
saw that name briefly, and all this stuff's coming back
to you that there was a placard when Mantis went
in and he grabbed those guns on the wall the
lab that he got those guns out of, there's a
placard on the wall that said Howard Murr. H MANDI.
You don't remember that ship at all, because all you
remember from from this event, from from from the whole
courtiese situation, you you barely remember any of it.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, just yeah.
Speaker 7: You barely remember any of it. You just you just
know that it worked out out. It's foggy, it's hard
to recall, and it's weird to you. It's real weird
to you that it's hard to remember that. And now
it's got you thinking. You're digging into your mind trying
to rebuild those memories, trying to fetch them up and
recall them from the back of your skull, and you're
getting nothing blank. And then you start to think, and
you're like, I've got lost time, missing time, multiple cases
of lost time. What the fuck is going on?
Speaker 4: And you.
Speaker 7: Keep that to yourself. You don't tell anybody because you're
you're thinking, maybe I'm going nuts, maybe I'm losing it.
Maybe maybe my memory's failing me, Maybe my mind. Maybe
all the tempo that I did back when I was
working the forest, working the beat, maybe it's maybe it's
damaged my mind. They said there were no side effects,
but all those murderers that were on tempo, all those
people that would not and killed everyone, maybe the tempo
is fucking with my brain.
Speaker 4: To get back in the right mindset, jogged the memory, you.
Speaker 7: Think you might know a guy named Gustavo's. You might
know a guy's named Gustavo that could help you with that.
Speaker 2: And while he's having that crisis of mind himself, forward
will like he's kind of piecing together, and he just
has a moment where he's like I know what to say,
and he's like mister and has not spoken directly with us.
Originally it was supposed to be EGO security. We are private.
We there are his issues with the egal security compromised
were here.
Speaker 7: Oh, keep on keeping keep talking, keep talking.
Speaker 2: And because I did, like Ford read the dossier. He
he has enough logic that he can kind of piece
together like a medicine check, like you can just turn
in for one success okay. And and so he like
half assed kind of sounds like he knows talking about
in regards to that AR and doesn't know what patients need.
But it would just be like all we know is
that we are to take it to a safe house
for a total of two days to make sure you're
not armed. This is the job we've you're a security
professional as well. Sometimes things happen quickly. And then I
will make mcconrode okay, plus plus two what.
Speaker 7: Do you got? What do you what do you think
you can do for a teamwork thing?
Speaker 3: I mean I've been trying to lie in coerce her
to go with the whole time.
Speaker 7: You go, you go, Yeah, so give me a conroll.
Uh for a conroll? That's true, he says, So volt
first conroll I will use. That will add any oh,
any hits you get will add to the test that
Ford is gonna make with plus two on top of it.
So hot.
Speaker 2: Okay, So I went from rolling two dice to rolling
eleven dice.
Speaker 7: Oh my god, you're trying to do it two dice? Okay?
Speaker 2: Hey, four successes.
Speaker 7: Okay, let's see how she does for successes.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna spend my edge. I'm spending it.
Speaker 7: Roll. You got bad luck, don't you?
Speaker 1: Yep?
Speaker 2: I'm rolling to do six first man.
Speaker 7: Never better.
Speaker 2: Okay, five successes, get fucking Sarah Murr get.
Speaker 7: Wrecked, lady that I'm trying to kidnap? So you you
you say that and she's like, I yeah, okay, yeah,
I get it some yeah, yeah. Of evolving situations. We're
all here. So, I mean, Howard's Howard's not due home
for another Yeah, he's he's been staying late. He's probably
gonna be home in about half an hour. Do we
need to wait for him?
Speaker 3: We have a separate team coming to his location.
Speaker 2: We don't have to wait for him.
Speaker 7: Hey, Kevin's in his room. He's he's playing, Uh, he's
he's playing the shadow Runner on his xbox U's seventy
nine eighty and uh, he's in the he's in his room, Kevin, Kevin.
Hold on, uh, and she heads back to go get Kevin,
and you see her head this issue. So you guys
are in this this living room, and it's it's uh,
it's comfy, but it's very, very very clean. It's like
super clean it. Uh. It looks like people live there, definitely,
but it's been dusted recently and there's not like any
kind of scattered crap that you would expect for someone
that's got two kids. It's it's very clean. There's a
couple of houseplants inside that look real. They're probably real,
maybe I don't know, carpeted. There's still on top of
the carpet. There's a rug underneath like by the couches
and the chairs, and there's a big trid screen on
the wall. And then she heads back, I'm not in
the right thing. Hold on, you guys, didn't see my ping.
She heads back this way and heads down a little
hall and goes to the door and she, you know,
opens the door and she's like Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, and
you know, he takes off the headphone and he's like
up uh and uh, you know, she she gets him
and she's like, pack your bag real quick. We're gonna
be going on a quick vacation just for just for
the weekend, just for the weekend, so you know, get
make sure you've got a swimsuit. We're gonna go to
a hotel and you know, get your stuff together. Mom,
Can I bring my Xbox? Like no, No, you can't
bring the Xbox Like okay, fine, I'm gonna bring Mike COMI.
I got games on there I can play blah blah blah.
And so he starts backing a shit real quick and
then she's like, you know about Tina, Uh, how much
do you know about her?
Speaker 2: Just that she is in a coma and that whether
not to allow her to come to harm.
Speaker 7: Do you have a vehicle prepared to transport?
Speaker 2: We have the Ford America outside. It is additional seating
so she can take up the back by herself. Unfortunately,
that's the best we have for now.
Speaker 7: That's that's that's not gonna do. You're I'm afraid you're underprepared.
Come with me, and so she heads this way. You
guys go with and you head back to the other bedroom,
reveal that and you know what, for funzies, I'm gonna
reveal Kevin's bedroom and check it out. The bathroom at
the end of the hall. Blamo. You guys assume it's
a bathroom, and you're right. But you head to the
other bedroom, Tina's room. She opens the door and you
see inside Tinamorr.
Speaker 1: She's in.
Speaker 7: Her bed. Her bed is like a hospital bed. She's
kind of, you know, propped up a little bit at
the waist. She's nikoma. She's got a bunch of shit
strapped to her arm. She's got troads connected to her head,
and she's all hooked up to machines. There's a little
thing that that goes bing and uh she's inside of
a bubble, like a plastic bubble, like a bubble boy.
Oh shit, and you can tell and let me get
uh oh, what would this be. Let's let's say intuition
and logic. I don't know if there's an automatic button
for intuition and logic, but roll intuition in logic. Everybody
that's inside.
Speaker 14: Okay, okay, I'm just gonna roll logic and then intuition.
How about actually click though it's over there.
Speaker 3: Who were successles?
Speaker 2: Oh wow, okay, it's gonna ask me if I'm playing
to state the spells.
Speaker 3: Yeah, for some reason for.
Speaker 2: Successes total for me as well? Wow?
Speaker 7: What romantis.
Speaker 4: Blitch?
Speaker 7: Critical glitch?
Speaker 1: Geez my god.
Speaker 4: All right, the longest part.
Speaker 7: Okay, So you guys go in and like you step
into the room and Mantis is like what you. Mantis
walks into the room and like stumbles over a cord
that's plug into the wall.
Speaker 1: Supporter and it unplucks.
Speaker 7: And those of you that have, like both of you
guys have four successes. You guys noticed that this bubble
is slightly from your perspective convex uh so like it's deflating,
Like it's as if there were some sort of suction
inside of the bubble, like a vacuum.
Speaker 2: Yeah, please use words, We understand, Thank you, pardon me?
Speaker 7: So back in is air blowing blowing in like like
there's a vacuum inside of the bubble. As as Mantis
trips over that cord and yanks it, you see the
bubble start to expand slightly, as if the vacuum inside
has stopped.
Speaker 4: Okay, immediately plug it back in.
Speaker 7: You fumble and you you try to get it to
plug it back in, and you, guys, look and you
see Sarah's face like she's seen a fucking ghost, and
she's like no, and she dives for that cord as
your dive. Your fumble with the cord, and you're like,
like fucking fumbling it and it's silly in the air,
and then you go to plug it back in and
everybody sees all at once. Tina Murr, the unconscious little
girl's eyes snap open and they have a red glow
to them. She opens her mouth, revealing fangs razor sharp,
and she screams instantly, and it's the loudest noise you've
ever heard.
Speaker 3: God damn it.
Speaker 13: We were doing so good, maybe pany all right the end, fools, Well, the.
Speaker 3: Ghool virus that whatever it can carn you into a
vampire or bangie or if you get the ghoul version
just a google.
Speaker 1: Oh sure, yeah, all right, well yeah, that's that's all.
We've got a nice, nice job, guys.
Speaker 3: Well, hold on, we were doing pretty good up until
that last thirty second stretch.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, have fun fight in the vampire anyway, that
