  Speaker 4: burned Sherlock Holmes poster that Quanta has brought with her

  Speaker 4: and I hold the poster up to the tailor.

  Speaker 2: What about something like this?
• 0:58
  Speaker 5: It can't be another another vision? Has this ever happened
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: to any day before? You don't think so. You're too old,
• 1:08
  Speaker 5: you already had yours. One of the firemen has you
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: in his arms. He's a young man around your age.
• 1:18
  Speaker 5: As your eyes open, he has brown, wavy hair, and
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: he's sweaty. His face is smeared with yeah, I keep going.
• 1:28
  Speaker 5: His face is smeared with ash. As he sees your
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: eyes open, he says, ah, Hi, I'm Joshua, You're okay, Hi,
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: thank you, You're safe.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: I'm Quanta.
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: But you do have an appointment this morning with a
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: repeat customer who comes in often.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Her name is Angel. Oh Ronnie, I need you bad, honey.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Oh Angel, What is it?
• 1:52
  Speaker 6: I met this new guy. Really, he's so good to me.
• 1:56
  Speaker 6: I don't know why I'm complaining, but I don't know.
• 1:59
  Speaker 6: I think he might be cheating on me. I need you, Ronnie.
• 2:02
  Speaker 6: I don't want to feel this way anymore. I need
• 2:05
  Speaker 6: you to take away the hurt, the pain you within her.
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: See a tunnel that's allowing pain to flow, tunnel that,
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: through meeting with you, you've squeezed.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: And made narrow.
• 2:20
  Speaker 5: Wouldn't it be nice if Angel didn't come back whinding
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: about the salon or how her waiter treated her, or
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: the new guy she's seeing. It'd be nice if just
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: shut it off. You feel like what you're doing is helpful.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: You feel the power of it, and.
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: You imagine closing the tunnel, pinching it. Pain can't get
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: through anymore, Jimmy or you step back, aghast as the
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: brilliant beam from the heaven seeps back into the sky.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: You stumble back in the garden of your grandma's old
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: house as Jackie and Maria catch each.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Of your arms. Oh, jamir, what was what the hell happened?
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: You guys see that? Have you guys see her? Uh?
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: No, we just saw like the big fucking beam of
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: blue light.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Oh, is that what you're talking about. There's a lady
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: at it, A lady. Yeah, she's she's like a she's
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: she's from space, but she's human. There's some crazy stuff
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: going on cosmologically speaking out there, and uh, long story
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: short spaces space is habitable, Jackie, but because of aliens
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: star people that are enabling humans to live out by
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Jupiter and maybe other places. I honestly could have asked
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: a lot deeper stuff.
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: Jay's shaking her head. Jimmy, that's insane. What did you learn?
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: What did you? What else did you? What did she?
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: What was she telling you? What did what happened? Well?
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I mean I was just asking a lot of questions,
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: trying to understand the nature of her, you know, descending
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: to space. It seems that it's rooted in magic, and
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: the magic comes from the starfolk, some of the stuff
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: my grandma was trying to study and tap into before
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: you know, she went with a technological route foreverwing. But
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: I guess most elevant to me technically, I'm my powers
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: come from what they consider a curse from one of
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: their spiritual enemies, who you know is I would call
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: the the geno who gave me these powers? Apparently his
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: people are an ancient enemy of the Star people, and
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: he's trying to pay off his debt to their people
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: by being an enslaved gin granting wishes to humans. But
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: he hasn't done it well yet, and so technically, as
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: much as these powers have been a blessing, there's probably
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: more to it than meets the eye, and there's some
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: kind of curse element. Well, that was crazy shit that
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: we saw. Thanks for watching me dance for that long.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: It's kind of humiliating.
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: Sure, I mean you got moves, Maria says, I'm hungry,
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: Are you guys hungry?
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: That made me?
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: That whole thing made me hungry.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: I'm very hungry. I could whip us something up, or
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: we could go out. I honestly don't want to leave.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: If we could just eat here, that sounds awesome, all.
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: Right, I'll make us something, Maria, you and Jackie go
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: into the kitchen and whip up some food. Jamir, as
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: you're walking in, you have leveled up this interaction with
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: this otherworldly woman. You've taken the get behind me perk,
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: your ability to defend those around you. What else has
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: Jamiir poured into and how is that making Jamir feel
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: right now? Yeah, Jamiir has buffed both his strength and
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: his magic blasts. So I think Jamiir, while he's tired,
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: the magic is flowing through him more easily, and his power,
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: both in his physical might as well as when it
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: shoots through him magically, is coursing and flowing a bit
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: smoother now.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: And what percentage buffer are you than before? You know,
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: I'm like a good twenty five percent buffer?
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Oh oh oh that's a job. Oh, I can't do that,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: mas sing like what he is now?
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: Us seventy?
• 7:43
  Speaker 7: Well? Is it twenty five percent of where he was
• 7:46
  Speaker 7: at now or where he was at before?
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: Yes?
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: Yes, okay, I went from five to seven, so it's
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: probably like one hundred and thirty percent increase technically, check
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: my math on that.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Trust you great?
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: Everyone, let's all just imagine buffer buffer but from before
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: he got powers.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right, it's great.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: A nice lot of leg day in there. No, I'm
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: just saying from like yesterday, from level two. I'm just
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: two to three, Okay, two to three.
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: Because I think before you were ten percent buffer from
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: when you didn't have powers.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: It doesn't matter, you're just shirt off. It was it
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: was seventy five. Oh yeah, yeah, I believe so. Oh dang, okay,
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: it's starting to get thicker, one hundred percent buffer from
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: when you before you got power. Sure nice, Maybe I
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: don't know, check the math. Let us know. When you're
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: doing your fan art out there, consider just.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: A little pinch and zoom, just a.
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: Little Yeah, if you're do an art and an iPad,
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: pinch and zoom, you know what I mean.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: He enhance enhance.
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: But yes, Raja, with this interaction and with a greater understanding,
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: with knowledge comes power, you are able now to pick
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: and choose some of the magics you want to throw
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: out with your magic blasts.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Ooh, I like that.
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: Once per recovery rest you can just pick one.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: That's fun. I like that.
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: But then the other ones you still have to roll for.
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: But you can roll twice and choose which one you want.
• 9:35
  Speaker 8: Very fund aids.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: I'm just throwing as I'm beginning to grasp the strands
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: of magic flowing through my body.
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: Rija, with this empowered feeling, you move into a nice
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: and very late snack with Maria and Jackie.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I make a thick turkey sando nice.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: Like I think, like the day after Thanksgiving, like not
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: thin slices just like.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, just lots of lots of Deli slices
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: layered on top of each other, to each other, a
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: couple of different cheeses, probably two different kinds of mayo,
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: some Chipotle and some regular.
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: It's like hard to get your mouth around the verticality
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: of the sand If I have any Tabasco sauce around,
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: I'll probably be holding that to like dash on each bite.
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: What a picture. You're just like your shirt's like tighter.
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: You're just holding a huge sandwich tobacco bottle.
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: Your hands just humming with new magics and turkey sandwich.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Turkey Sando magics and salmwich.
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: I will move over to Jason following threads. We've done
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: one for Ronnie, one for Jamir. What are you doing, Jason?
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: I just got the one point in thread chasing, and
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: I'm I'm literally chasing threads this time.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: Gotta pick up my package.
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: Boy, just gotta go to the dry cleaners, drop off
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: this spellbook suit, pick up the other one. A little
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: quick and dirty in and.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Out of the like that's what a DC, it's I
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: got it.
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: You show up to the tailor's one night a week
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: later looking to get your new suit.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: At this point, Jason is just wearing like kind of
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: a saint. He's been not sleeping and wearing Arthur's the
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: suit he wore to Arthur's funeral, like a gray, crumpled
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: suit and just a paper bag on his head. And
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: he's got in like a grocery tote bag, the Spellbook
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: suit that he's at on loan.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: And he buzzes the tailor. It's me, oh, paper boy,
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: paper man, I mean paper fan.
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: Come on in, she buzzes, and you go up to
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: her penthouse. She's moved the mannequin upstairs as she's putting
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: on the finishing touches.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: I've got some business to attend to, so I hope
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: you'll forgive me.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: I can't stay low. Well, you don't want to try
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: it on.
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: I'm sure if it's great. And if it's I mean
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: it looks like you met my specs. It's paper and
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: venim together. Yes, I've done everything you wanted. You look
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: and you see, pale white but still shimmering is the
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: new suit of the Paper Phantom. The tailor has really
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: done the incredible. She's fused the pulp of paper with
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: venim lace thread to create a paper venim cloth alloy
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: thing amazing. She's been able to selely adjust the tone
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: with light grays and off white to create a stunning piece.
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: It's a trench coat that folds over itself in the
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: front and has a broad and pronounced collar that pops
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: up well beyond the top of the neck. The tails
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: of the coat are hilariously and Prantom approved.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Long paper Phantom approved and wide wide.
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: There is a paper mask that is just overlapping. It
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: looks like just overlapping paper, kind of like mache. It
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: has no features, it's just paper. It covers the whole head,
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: giving a haunting look. And then there is the hat.
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: It's a fedora with a much broader brim, kind of
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: like Carmen San Diego style.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: Of Diego style, Yeah, Carmon's nda.
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: A light gray ribbon where the brim meets the dome
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: of the hat. You are meant to look past the
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: broad collar and then under the wide brim hat, expecting
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: to see a face, but instead are met with the
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: pale blank face of the paper phantom.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: I'm just imagining Untaanned Adjason looking confused.
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: The pale and then yeah, just like you see like
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: the paper bag starts to get wet as you see
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: a tear to form underneath the bag. It's it's beautiful.
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: Thank you here, I brought you this back to hands
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: hands the tailor, the total bag with the spellbook outfit
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: in it.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: She takes it back. I'll fine, I'll just use this
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: for touchups when you guys need help. I appreciate it.
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: She puts her hand on the mannequin, kind of on
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: the chest part. She looks at you and says, now,
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: paper phantom.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: Is it just me?
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: Or is there something going on between you and me,
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: like like a little buzz, a little something happening.
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: Maybe like professional coworker stuff.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know about that. Maybe more like.
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: Romantic, kind of sneaky romantic, like you can wear that
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: paper bag and I'll wear one of my masks and
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: we can go out on a date or something.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: Huh.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: I'll be honest, this is the first time that I've
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: really thought about that. And also I had a funeral
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: this week and it's been kind of I've been doing
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: some other stuff.
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: Well I wasn't subtle before.
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: I'm not used to social situations. Ah, I see before
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: this that my friends we're all just books. So I'm
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: not saying no, but I don't it wouldn't be a
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: good date. Well, agree to disagree. How do you feel
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: about soup? Everybody likes soup?
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: Well maybe once the city is safe, we can get
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: soup as.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: More than co workers. I don't know.
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: I'll hold you to that paper boy, paper whatever.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Taylor.
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: And Jason's gonna unbutton his shirt under the jacket, pull
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: it open, and the suit is going to like sloop
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: into his chest to be stored for later use.
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: And the paper Phantom has come out of his cocoon
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: of paper and become a new hero, a paper butterfly, paper.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Diego, whoa because of car.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: I'll take that out. I'll take that out. Don't worry.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: I'll take that. Don't worry. Hey, guys, he's gonna take that.
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: If that's the exists in the same universe as where
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: the Pillsbury Double Boys is the name of the team.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, guys know, I'm paper Diego.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: San Diego Quanta. Yes, let's follow a Quanta threat.
• 17:57

• 18:00
  Speaker 7: I think one night, maybe like the three of us,
• 18:04
  Speaker 7: maybe listening to the VHS tapes or something again from
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: the womb or winding down. Hey, guys, before we go
• 18:17
  Speaker 7: to bed, I was kind of wondering if you'd go
• 18:24
  Speaker 7: with me to see somebody maybe maybe sometime in the
• 18:30
  Speaker 7: next next few days, if you can, one of you
• 18:35
  Speaker 7: or both of you.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I have no follow up questions about that. I'm available.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: I don't have a job anymore.
• 18:42
  Speaker 7: I mean, it's it's just it's a delicate situation. Somebody
• 18:49
  Speaker 7: from before. Oh, she only knows me as Ronnie or
• 18:57
  Speaker 7: you know, the Arch day both she knew me before.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: But I mean, are you going to go to her
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: in costume or are.
• 19:05
  Speaker 7: You going to go to her I'd like to go
• 19:07
  Speaker 7: to her as Ronnie, but when I've gone before, I so,
• 19:11
  Speaker 7: I I really, I really, she's she's somebody I really
• 19:16
  Speaker 7: messed up with. Okay, but she's fine. Okay, but I
• 19:22
  Speaker 7: don't I don't think she should be living the way
• 19:27
  Speaker 7: she is.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: So I know. I said I had no follow up questions,
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: but I do now.

  Speaker 7: I I kind of chickened out the last time I
• 20:09
  Speaker 7: saw her and I didn't. I didn't fix it. But
• 20:12
  Speaker 7: I think she's gonna be really mad if I do
• 20:16
  Speaker 7: fix it, or she's at least gonna I don't know,
• 20:19
  Speaker 7: maybe we need like e mts there or something.

• 20:42
  Speaker 2: so I think she's good. What whoa?
• 20:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah that's how guns work, right m hm cool
• 20:53
  Speaker 7: This whole.
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: Time too, I'm wearing we're like watching hs Is in
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: the nest. I've got one of those cleansing face masks
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: on and I'll use paper manipulation to pull it off.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: I'll be there, Thanks, thank you.
• 21:08
  Speaker 7: I'll let you know when I had that way.
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: Yeah, let the boys agree to meet you for this
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: special errand before that, errand let's do the other thread
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: you wanted to chase. Oh okay, meditating on your visions,
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: how do you want to go about that?
• 21:29
  Speaker 7: So I think about, well, the first one was just
• 21:32
  Speaker 7: normal for like a day kid, but then it wasn't
• 21:38
  Speaker 7: like it. I mean it was because all the visions
• 21:41
  Speaker 7: are just chaos. So one of infinite options that could
• 21:45
  Speaker 7: have that I could have seen. And the second one,
• 21:49
  Speaker 7: my dad in a place that at the time I
• 21:52
  Speaker 7: kind of loved, was under threat. So I think Ronnie's
• 21:57
  Speaker 7: trying to think, like could she like create a situation
• 22:02
  Speaker 7: where she's like pushed back into it?
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: M hm.
• 22:05
  Speaker 7: So I think and thinks about the second vision and drowning,
• 22:12
  Speaker 7: and she heads to like a local like why.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: The z She heads to the z the Zong the
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: zung Men's.
• 22:27
  Speaker 10: What is for the men's club, Christian Association, the Zung
• 22:36
  Speaker 10: the Zung Men's Catholic.
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: Associations Z for gen Z and millennials a gen Z establishment,
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: So this thing is ancient at this point. Could also
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: be the n b C a.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: Christian is.
• 23:05
  Speaker 7: She it's the local end the local alphabet and hides
• 23:12
  Speaker 7: in there until I gets shut down and then sneaks
• 23:15
  Speaker 7: into the pool.
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: The lights go off. You hear the janitor, sense the janitor,
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: You sense you sense the janitor. Lock up here, the
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: doors close, The water is still but inviting.
• 23:35
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I put the CCTV on a loop electrically, just
• 23:38
  Speaker 7: with the thought stripped down. Take a deep breath and
• 23:44
  Speaker 7: jump into the deep end and let myself sink, releasing
• 23:50
  Speaker 7: all the air out of my day lungs until I'm
• 23:54
  Speaker 7: like sitting crisscross on the bottom and start holding my breath,
• 23:59
  Speaker 7: trying to force myself into a panic.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: And it does not take long.
• 24:05
  Speaker 11: Because I've started a panic, got stuff thinking about doing that?
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, naked, naked, drowning yourself at the man's Christian as
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: panic takes over.
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: Roll a spirit check, okay, plus your synaptic scan.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: It's only a D six and a D four.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: I'm rolling a challenging check, which is a D ten.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: All right, it's possible, pretty good. Seven.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: I rolled a one, Are you serious? Yeah? That's the one.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: I mean.
• 24:40
  Speaker 5: I'm randomly showed a one to.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: Like one is out of here, no cap detective.
• 24:50
  Speaker 7: I also see the one to everyone not on the table.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: It was one.
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: I picked it up because I thought it looked like
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: the seven and then that would have been a Ti
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: Cry situation.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: But it was a one.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: TI Drowndron failed.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: Could you just have drowned? In the campaigns?
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: Check out something I always have my secondary character.
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: You panic, your mouth opens, You start to do that
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: scary thing where you're inhaling water because you're reaching for
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: the air naturally involuntarily. You just start pushing and clawing
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: towards the surface. As your head breaks the surface, your
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: mind goes to a different place. Your spirit, your soul
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: goes to a different place, and you are shooting through
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: the sky as lightning. You do so over the city
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: of New Babel in a new vision. You crash to
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: the edge of the city where you behold a woman
• 26:08
  Speaker 5: in the air. She floats aloft, having called you the
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: lightning to her. She grabs a hold of the lightning
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: bolt and flings it down and it crashes into the
• 26:24
  Speaker 5: ground in front of some un soldiers that are chasing
• 26:28
  Speaker 5: refugees who are running past the walls of New Babel.
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: You're seeing the Eva war.
• 26:39
  Speaker 10: Oh my gosh, I can't believe it worked, or I'm dead.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Oh, maybe Joshua was reviving me.
• 26:50
  Speaker 5: You pop out of the lightning and are just ethereally
• 26:53
  Speaker 5: kind of in the air, next to this woman as
• 26:56
  Speaker 5: she grabs a hold of the lightning. The woman has
• 27:00
  Speaker 5: unkempt and wild yellow hair, not blonde, but yellow. She
• 27:07
  Speaker 5: has a flowing cloak that stretches past her feet. Her
• 27:12
  Speaker 5: bodysuit is blue and it's kept tight to her body
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: with a series of straps. She creates an orb of
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: wind around fighting evos on the ground to block a
• 27:23
  Speaker 5: barrage of incoming fire. She pushes and flips a un
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: tank with the wind as it listens to her and
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: heeds the flick of her wrist. She then pauses as
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: she hears a horn call. She turns to see that
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: the refugees have made it into New Babble. She speaks,
• 27:48
  Speaker 5: her voice amplified.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: On the wind.
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: We have done what you've asked. We've come here, and
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: we will leave. Now leave us be, or can continue
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: to weather the tempest. Two lightning bolts strike down, and
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: she grabs them each as extremely long swords with which
• 28:12
  Speaker 5: she threatens the un retreating troops. They begin to cease
• 28:16
  Speaker 5: fire and turn. She sighs in relief. You see she
• 28:21
  Speaker 5: is tired and exhausted. But then a spike an inch
• 28:28
  Speaker 5: in diameter and a foot long suddenly sprouts through her chest.
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: It neutralizes her EVO gene, and as the lightning fizzles away,
• 28:40
  Speaker 5: she falls until.
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: She strikes the ground.
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: Oh, crumpled and dead, her face fades from your view,
• 28:52
  Speaker 5: and she smiles, knowing that her last act was saving
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: the EVO refugees.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: Hello.
• 29:05
  Speaker 5: The clouds start to swirl in front of you, and
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: the wind forms the woman you've seen before.
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: Once as the forest and then as the ocean, she
• 29:19
  Speaker 5: now presents herself as the sky.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: Oh, I thought that was you? Why point down at
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: the ground.
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: She was my daughter, as you are my children.
• 29:35
  Speaker 5: She gestures to the EVO refugees now running into New
• 29:38
  Speaker 5: Babble through No Man's Land.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: Were slaughtered, forced away. The world thought it no longer
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: needed them. They were wrong.
• 29:52
  Speaker 12: Who I'm I'm sorry it sounds like you're saying I'm
• 29:58
  Speaker 12: an EVO.
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: Yes, you are mother as she was before you. She
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: gestures to the crumpled body of the tempest on the ground.
• 30:14
  Speaker 7: She seems amazing. I wish I knew more about her.
• 30:20
  Speaker 7: I heard last moments were incredible. I just hold out
• 30:28
  Speaker 7: my arm hands looking at it, and ad gestured all
• 30:31
  Speaker 7: of me.
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: I'm not human.
• 30:36
  Speaker 5: I am a rock, earth stone, tree, wind, wave, flesh
• 30:44
  Speaker 5: and flower.
• 30:45
  Speaker 7: And you are of me, of earth. Yeah I thought
• 30:50
  Speaker 7: I was of Venus. There's venem on earth.
• 30:55
  Speaker 5: No, oh, you're an alloy of earth, metal and ve yeah.
• 31:02
  Speaker 12: Remember yeah, yeah yeah.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: Quanta nods and looks down at bat.
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: That's all right. The world needs you again. I need
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: you again.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: What is it?
• 31:21
  Speaker 7: Is there something happening outside New Babbel? Is there another
• 31:24
  Speaker 7: famine or catastrophe? What's That's what I was always taught.
• 31:30
  Speaker 7: Seemed that the Evos came from global crisis.
• 31:35
  Speaker 5: My children, throughout ages have been builders, creators, growers. In
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: this time, the world needs protectors, defenders. Death comes. I
• 31:51
  Speaker 5: feel it in my earth and bones from where beyond.
• 31:57
  Speaker 10: Whoa?
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: She gestures too, the atmosphere and above with a wisp
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: of cloud. Whoa.
• 32:06
  Speaker 5: It will be slower this time, for my power is
• 32:10
  Speaker 5: still waye. But you are the new beginning, my daughter.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: Are you so there's going to be more?
• 32:19
  Speaker 7: Yes?
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: She wraps you in cloud.
• 32:23
  Speaker 5: You rush together through New Babble and you feel both
• 32:31
  Speaker 5: space and time shifting until you realize you're in the
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: present today, and you go to an apartment building, a
• 32:43
  Speaker 5: crummy apartment building. It's in Sass. It's well north of
• 32:49
  Speaker 5: Crow's Hold and Jamier's house. And the two of you
• 32:54
  Speaker 5: phase through the walls and windows, the brick in stone
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: until you hover above a bed and you see a
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: young man the wavy brown hair. Oh my god, what's
• 33:12
  Speaker 5: the good word.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: Jesus?
• 33:16
  Speaker 9: Like?
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: No, ripped? When you're like like, when you're like turning
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: in your bed, tossing and turning.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: Yes, I call it crocodile rolling.
• 33:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you see a young man with wavy brown hair,
• 33:38
  Speaker 5: tossing and turning in his bed.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's Joshua.
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: Is sheets soaked with sweat. Oh? Should we.
• 33:50

  Speaker 7: Yah?
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: Should we be seeing this? What are we? What are
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: we doing here?
• 33:56
  Speaker 12: I know this is my vision, but I did not
• 34:00
  Speaker 12: did not mean for it to go this far.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: With you here and just.
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: Watch, Okay, his arms shoot out and out of it
• 34:10
  Speaker 5: come come.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: Your vision is awesome? He comes? Yeah, he shoots, come
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: out of his eyes. Is that what we want this
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: to be?
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: No, it's awesome. You're doing an awesome superhero. I'm sorry,
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: I'm a little ship.
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: He shoots out his hands and out of them grow
• 34:41
  Speaker 5: stacking hexagonal plates.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: That are trying to think of words that aren't dirty. Now,
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: sure to challenge that. Shove into into.
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: The walls and break the breakthrough the dry wall. He's
• 35:04
  Speaker 5: still asleep and just tossing his head back and forth
• 35:08
  Speaker 5: as the Earth Mother sucks both of you back out
• 35:12
  Speaker 5: into the sky.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: Oh, he will need a guy, got it.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: I'm a little embarrassed.
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: What do you have to be embarrassed about?
• 35:25
  Speaker 7: I mean, watching that and how I already think he's
• 35:28
  Speaker 7: pretty hot, and now I'm going to be like his teacher.
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: And you're technically naked now too, and I'm totally naked.
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: These things have no impact on the way I see
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: the world.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: That makes sense.
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: I'm sorry if I've offended your day sensibilities. These things
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: are beyond me.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: That makes sense. Mother, This is this is really happening, right,
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: I'm having another vision?
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: Yes, and you wake up in the water, crashing, coughing.

  Speaker 1: Time for water aerobics. Oh sorry, ladies, look at you?

  Speaker 1: But she doesn't know it's me.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: She doesn't know.

  Speaker 12: It's the most tension of a secret identity there ever was.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: Water carry arms up, arms out. She doesn't recognize.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: Now, why are you naked?
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: I'd like it.
• 37:05
  Speaker 7: I can put on clothing if that'd be more comfortable
• 37:07
  Speaker 7: for everybody.

• 39:11
  Speaker 5: through you.

  Speaker 5: find the house of Angel, do a little playback of
• 45:07
  Speaker 5: what happened to Angel because of you.
• 45:11
  Speaker 7: As Ronnie is approaching the building, she thinks about how
• 45:15
  Speaker 7: she met Angel doing her former job, which was and
• 45:20
  Speaker 7: is going to keep being pretending to be a fortune teller,
• 45:24
  Speaker 7: pretending to know people's futures and give them advice on
• 45:27
  Speaker 7: what would be best for them and what would work
• 45:30
  Speaker 7: in their endeavors in love and in life and in
• 45:32
  Speaker 7: work business. And she didn't know at the time, but
• 45:36
  Speaker 7: she was using her powers to see into people and
• 45:40
  Speaker 7: to affect how they felt and thought. And with Angel,
• 45:44
  Speaker 7: who was a frequent flyer that Ronnie was getting annoyed with,
• 45:49
  Speaker 7: one day, she without knowing, cut off Angel's pain sensors
• 45:57
  Speaker 7: so she doesn't feel emotional or physical pain anymore. And
• 46:01
  Speaker 7: as far as Ronnie knows, she's still that way, and
• 46:06
  Speaker 7: Angel seemed.
• 46:09
  Speaker 8: To like it.
• 46:12
  Speaker 7: The last time Ronnie checked in with her and then
• 46:17
  Speaker 7: found out that the church was then using Angel because
• 46:21
  Speaker 7: of her lack of hurt, to take her blood to
• 46:26
  Speaker 7: power Dirk, and Ronnie hasn't gone back to check on
• 46:30
  Speaker 7: Angel since that night praying Dirk and revealing herself to
• 46:36
  Speaker 7: the council. Oh, she's gonna hate me either way, walk
• 46:48
  Speaker 7: up one side of the steps, ding.
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: Dong, the bell rings. The house is.
• 47:01
  Speaker 5: Enormous. It's in North Cono. It's one of those houses
• 47:06
  Speaker 5: that as you're going through a city it seems out
• 47:11
  Speaker 5: of place. It's so big and beautiful. There's a double,
• 47:16
  Speaker 5: a double arched like an arching grand staircase that goes
• 47:21
  Speaker 5: up to the front door. You walk up one side
• 47:24
  Speaker 5: and ding a bell. The house is dark, quiet for

• 47:35
  Speaker 2: To the door.
