Last time on no latency, I've got a.
Proofed idea. I'm gonna do it like a tail
whip. Do it what?
Are you doing? No.
If you don't move out of a moving vehicle, oh.
All right, let's do this. Fridge and Claire.
Just a nurse.
You actually pissed off the one calm person in the group.
Did you dig that crossbow out of your life?
That is unfair. The energy in this fight is UN
unsportsmanlike weird. I would have to agree with you,
Jeff. You really are pressing the
wrong ones here. Oh, VB, go ahead.
Yeah, I've ruined a few rugs. I don't remember ruining it with
this guy. What are you doing?
All of us versus you, Walker. You really want to play this
game. One liner has always been a
trophy little bitch. What What files do you have?
Well, I got to uncrypt them first.
That's going to take a minute and we get a drink.
Bottle of tea. Let's get her a bubble out.
Hi Ping, That super Grim on your hip looks very fashionable.
Thanks. I just polished it.
Ping, I I brought you some bubble tea.
We were at the Bubble Tea Cafe. I don't remember if you knew
that. Oh yeah, no.
I ever heard the phone call with sore tooth and everything.
I hope you like lavender. I do like lavender.
Did you put any drugs in it? I did not.
Oh shit. I could have got this with
drugs. It's probably for the best.
We just take it easy honestly. Lavender is a very calming
supplement and I think it might be good for us after all of the
things that we've been through in these past couple of days,
weeks, months that maybe we just.
Enjoy just some calming lavender without any extra additives.
Oh, I put some Dramamine in mine.
Oh well, that might make you more relaxed, actually, that.
Was that was the point? You hear Ping knock over a glass
and you turn around. Ping's salting some Synth Coke
into their drink. What?
I own some common coke nice.
Well, so much for that idea. Well, I need to do cleaning
again. That's fair.
Also, my resist torture drugs is like, fucking massive.
I'm good. Phoebe, you're OK.
You know, I'm just really glad that we took the time to give
back to the community because, you know, we do a lot of crimes
and killings and other otherwise frowned upon activities and it's
just good that we sometimes do like to go back and build up the
the community around us. I did have a lot of fun cleaning
up the the Bubble Tea Cafe though Throwing, throwing around
little tapioca balls was was quite a delight.
Everyone was giggling. It was.
And when it just broke into a musical number that nobody else
will ever hear because it was just a one time thing.
I know. Will You Roll Me AD 10?
And the choreography that we all we all just spontaneously knew
was incredible. It was nuts.
I I won't say I really appreciated the lifts there
Retro I I have not been hoisted. Above, hoisted high by by a
strong, Strapping Young Lad in quite a while.
Well, I hosted I Hoisted you by my own petard for that one.
Very nice, Iona. It strikes you in your memory
that you remember a large portion of time where Vendel was
missing Vendel. Why?
Why didn't you help us clean? Nothing.
I was. I was helping, was helping raves
in the kitchen. How did I know you were going to
say that? You dirty dog.
You dirty dog, you. Oh my goodness.
He let me touch his sign. I didn't think that's what you
were going to say, but you dirty dog, you.
Also he's a great kisser. I nothing bye and.
Then just go to the bathroom. That's delightful.
I have conflicted emotions about that.
Why, that's so delightful. I mean it is, but to be honest,
like also like internally I was shipping him with my housemate
and today I'm and I know that he's gone, but like still part
of it, you know. Oh, but I'm sorry, you were
shipping Vendel with with Sano? Oh yeah, yeah.
We don't talk about that. I know, I know, we don't.
Don't bring, don't bring that up because I mean that that very
much was a thing. Yeah.
Hey, guys. What are we whispering about
them? Taxes.
And Jed blocks. Hey everyone, I think we got a
message. Oh my phone, my my tile dinged.
Oh, you, yeah, you guys and your tiles.
Oh sorry, we didn't go all you know corporation on our on our
phones you get agents. OK, let me see here.
Oh, this is a confidential Biotechnica memo.
Now why is it always Biotechnica?
Aren't there any other corporations here?
Aren't there any other evil corporations in this season?
Aren't there any other evil corporations here?
That's what you sound like, Chip.
That's what you sound like. Do you think I'm evil?
Look at me. I was doing an imitation to you.
I I I couldn't help it. I thought I'd do pretty good.
I don't. Know.
Yeah, I mean, it's not hard to do a corporal imitation.
Just corporal speak is so low class.
Anyways, like watch here, listen to listen to this.
Look at this. Your opinion has been noted and
it's been given all consideration it deserves.
See. Super easy that.
Was pretty good. Were you reading that or or did
you come up with that? I came up with that.
Oh, I was. I was very convinced.
I. Can read this, this, this
confidential note from Biotechnica in my best in my
best Biotechnica agent. Corporal, speak.
Well, let me go to let me go to the numbers.
Performance, I guess. Acting.
Yeah. There you go. 15.
Everybody watches Jeb straighten up and his face slightly
changes. And then he says.
Doctor Abbott's work of cybernetic prosthetics and the
modular nature of the design is unseen in the space.
Biotechnic is not equipped to advance this technology or
Doctor Abbott for all the NC Space Agreement, or indeed has a
collaboration opportunity with Xerofa, who requires an
underwater and clandestine facility to take the designs to
production. Oil rigged M5 is tapped and is
close to newly exposed to the moment Abbott and her research
can go to full production in mere months.
Zurafa is confident Abbott's research can be used for a very
wide range of applications. Links to the internal strength
at any size with this toodle mixture.
Any size. I cannot stress enough.
If the if the Rafa says any size, then you mean it.
This is huge. Start Doctor Abbott's transfer
documents immediately. We're all going to be rich and
we get rid of Abbott. Win Win Management.
The little evil laugh at the end was quite convincing.
I don't sound like that. No, no, of course not.
No. But I got.
Hey, what's this little thing in the corner there?
I'm just going to click that. Oh.
They have a whole, they have a
whole one line set of plans set up for us.
These are architectural one line plans.
Interesting. Let's see.
And I just love seeing those schematics being able to really
get down in the nitty gritty of the plan and that we're about to
do. So it looks like the oil rig is
on top, oil rig M5, and then at the very top is a biotechnical
security detail and there's a surface dock at the water line
that goes to that. Now that looks like there's some
kind of there's two different tubes here, one in yellow and
one in orange. The yellow one hands down to
under the water to a maintenance repurposed as underwater staging
area and so far as requested underwater defenses.
Oh, that goes something else. To a submersive dock and then
the main entrance that's there and looks like there's also this
orange line that says Abbott Lab elevator maintenance.
And then it looks like there's a bunch of mines and some turrets
under the water as defenses. Interesting.
So that does give us quite a bit of information of how we want to
tackle this. Seems like maybe the best way to
do it would be to get. Get in on the top level and then
take that orange elevator shaft all the way down.
That way we can bypass all of them.
Turrets and I guess mines, sea mines, What are those things
called depth charges? There we are.
That is a plan. However, let's be honest,
typically whenever we go through the front door or something.
We're not the most. Bendel comes back from the
bathroom. Professional.
Now I suppose the other option would be to get some sort of
submersible and go real down deep, but further on, you know,
further back, oh, come in from underneath.
There you go. What do you think about that?
I think the biggest problem there is that we just don't got
to submersible. We don't.
And does anybody know how to drive one?
I mean, I imagine it's the same. I mean, we could, we do, we do.
We are going to just get that guy to, right?
Run the boat, right? Well, not if one of us knows how
to run the boat. There is no sea vehicle.
Yes, there is. Oh, just kidding.
Yes, there is. I mean, I'm all right.
You know, I I kind of just, I kind of just imagine that it's a
that it's a car and I mean it. I'm OK.
I think the whole point of us hiring the the pirate guy was so
that he'd take us there, right? But we don't know his rates.
Oh, his pirates. .1415926 a day. Actually, that's a really good
rate. 1000. Oh, I'm misleading, I'm saying.
So what? What's Can I see?
Retro. Oh, OK, so there are two
attachments. Looks like we've got the bot
top. Oh, did anyone see this little
portion here where it says Frog Lab?
Wait, there's a what? What's the what?
Retro. You talked about this one file
with the oil rig and the two places we can get into, But
what's this other one? Oh, here on the the Abbott lab.
Oh, it says Frog Lab. Oh, don't throw frogs in there.
Don't show that to to Sloan. Frogs are her favorite trade.
We'll have to grab some. Oh, well, I hope so.
And I hope there are those ones that, you know, you can, like,
tear off a leg and then regrow the leg.
Real fire. That's so we're all on the same
page. Because then you could just.
Kind of you guys. Continuously the the the Abbott
lab schematics from the M5 decommissioned oil rig.
Does this help us plan? Well, it does look like there's
other. Submersible points we can go to
aside from the very top one, however, looking like there's
quite a bit of security on that and more defenses as we go down.
So do we have to go through the oil rig?
Not if we come from under. Yes.
That's it. It sounds, it sounds like the
heavens are crying because they want me to say that we have to
go through the oil. Got 2 two ways of going to the
oil rig. We can either go underwater or
to the top. Yeah, 'cause you can, you can
see here that there's it. It literally does say there's
key cards for some of these. So this probably means that we
can't just submersible to the very lower ones the best one
that we can do. Is that top sub, the top sub one
if we go underwater or we go to the landing dock bio via boat?
The question is, is that can we be honest with each other?
We are either going to either do guns a blazing at the right, at
the front, or we somehow charlatan our way down, which I
have to admit that we've done before.
But can we constantly trust in ourselves to do that?
Really, I don't quite know. I I am not a part of this
project at all. And I will say that these people
probably know who I am. I think we should do some sneaky
sneak for that reason alone. Yeah, because then if they
recognize you, and once we things do go sideways as what
they usually do, are you really ready for your bosses to go?
Excuse me? We need you, Iona, to please
take a look at this memo we got from your face being in a lab
you're not supposed to be at. Now I've got.
That's why I'm saying we have to go ahead.
Now the people, the the the faculty that work at this
facility, do they live there full time or they must have some
sort of shipments in and out? There must be some sort of
outside contact. They probably got to come back
and see their families, at least during the holidays.
I can look it up. Because maybe, maybe.
We don't know. Yes.
Do you get paid? Do does Biotechnical give PTO?
Oh, definitely lots of PTO. Oh, OK.
Why do you think I never go to work?
I'm still on BTO. We technically work from home.
I have. I have six months of BTO.
We're sort of on call. I do technically work from home,
yeah. We actually do get a lot of work
done when we're not doing all of this bullshit.
Well, that. 'D be good to know I have no
idea what you do at your job. Well, I I cut shit up, but I
pretend to be an assistant. Sorry, I didn't.
That's strike two. What was strike one?
Kissing Reeves? Shut up.
Right.
I'm looking it up. All right, they've got what were
we? They kiss Reeves.
Oh, Vivi, were you not here for this conversation?
Made me out in the kitchen while we were coming at the Bubble Tea
Cafe. Oh, that is juicy.
You. Were naked.
All right, I found out information about the oil rig.
Yeah, yeah. Let's stop spilling the bubble
tea. Let's figure this out.
Hey, that's nice. All right.
So I found out that they've got a biotechnical security detail
on the main oil rig part and like this paperwork's paper
thin, it's very obvious that they're just guards and then
there is less people in the other area and this report is so
it's like glass the other area. And then it says any more
information is classified. Well, maybe we just, I mean like
what's what's the time frame on this job here because maybe we
just kind of loiter outside, you know, a few few miles out and
make sure. Oh oh boy, he's back.
Well, if this is whether they're making friends.
You could get me one and then blow it up.
Why is blowing it up always the answer?
Because there's no other answer. It says here automated
production at the bottom and with it being thermally powered
it may be perpetual. Oh shit.
It also has a shipping yard, too.
That's not good. It's all right under the Frog
lab. How under the?
Frogs. The frogs are running the whole
lab. It's frogs all the way down.
Crew, What is it going to be? Are you going to attack this
slowly from underneath the surface or above?
You go up or you go down. Which one it be?
I'm going to be honest, I kind of want to do under the water.
Because that's something we haven't done yet.
Going through the front door has usually been our jam, but I feel
like under the water, like that's earns a new trophy for
the trophy case. I vote from below as well, more
so because I think it's more of a practical option, not just
because it's cool. Would like for the rest of you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we're agreed, so I'm going to
take that as a yes. So you've added.
That. OK, Jeb, that's a yes.
And Iona, you also agree, yes, from below.
So we're going to avoid the mines and go to the staging
area. Yeah.
I mean, if we're paying pirate, then we have to.
I mean, if we're, we got to get our money's worth.
It's true, might as well. All right.
Well, then let's go to the docks.
Bye, Ping. Bye domino all.
Right. Bye guys.
You have a really good time. I'll see you later.
I'm going to keep mopping. Bye.
Hey, Ping, real quick.
Yes, what's going on you? Got any more of that synthcoke
on you? No.
I poured it all into my into my beverage.
I finished it. Look.
Ping, Ling, Ling, Ling, Ling, Oh, come.
Man. Baby, can I hear this
conversation? Oh.
No, I was quiet for good reason. Your favorite multiverse hopping
game system jumping, high Production value Actual Play
Podcast is back. System Switch Season 2 drops in
your universe on November 16th. Bowler and Hicks have been
transported into the science fiction world of Scum and
Villainy. Follow our heroes as they try to
break out of prison. This is clearly a sale.
I've seen a sale before. In any universe, this is a sale.
Fly through asteroid belts. Break into high security

police. And punch fascists.
That's always very cool. Catch up on season one of System

premieres on November 16th. Wherever you get your podcasts,
the multiverse is a strange place.
All right, let's let's be honest, y'all we're going
underwater. Now I don't know if the rest of
you, I don't need to hold my breath, so.
Oh, was that not rhetorical? I do have to hold my breath.
Do we need? Maybe maybe rebreathers?
Rebreathers, yeah, yeah. Just in case, can we need dive
suits too, It's going to be really cold.
Where are we going to get those? I imagine if it's a big facility
that they'd probably have some we can steal.
Oh, that is my finger just. Oh, so.
I'm all for that, so it is procured on site.
Is everyone stacked on ammo? I'm really.
Sure, what I would need, other than maybe a self-contained
underwater breeding apparatus. I would like to stop by Clive,
see if they have a sale on something.
Maybe they got something interesting.
You know what? That's.
Yeah, let's do that. Jeb takes a left at one of the
lights. Everyone shifts to the right
side of. The park Can you screech outside
of Clive's and your head inside? Clive Hey, you right.
How's it go when? It's going all right.
How? How's the shopping doing?
You haven't been getting robbed again, right?
No. That's good.
I've been. I've been all right, actually.
That's nice. That's awesome.
Yeah. We decided to stop by to see if
like you had any like fire sales or anything cool come onto the
shelves. So.
Fire shale. No, I don't have any fire sales.
I mean, like, I sell things and my my my products are fire.
Ha, ha. Maybe.
Maybe we just, you know, ask you directly.
Like, you know, if if we were to do some sort of underwater
mission. Yep.
But I'll ask you for a friend. Do you have any?
If my friend was going to do an underwater mission, what what
kind of stuff would you be willing to sell me?
Them? Sell them, my friend.
Well, if you're going underwater, I've got 3
breathers, but a few of those. And I and I turned to the rest
of the group. Look at.
That they're they're they're one time use and I've got like a
like a harpoon attachment for a grapple gun.
Perfect. When you you, you fire it into
something and then you have to snap it off, so it's also one
use. Wow.
Yeah, would love that. Oh, it's like a grapple gun.
Like, it is not a it's not an attachment.
It's just the grapple gun. But it's with a harpoon.
Yes, yeah, you you put it in and it fires and then you have to
like, you know, undo the rope because it digs really far, you
know? Oh, and anybody could use that.
We have to have a grapple gun, but yes.
Oh, OK, so it is an attachment to the grapple gun.
Badge. Yes, it's like a grapple ammo.
Jeb would like that. Jeb.
Yeah, you would like that?
Listen, when it I don't got, I'm out of money.
Now you guys kind of went through my entire pockets, so
I'll take anything you guys know about me.
Am I out? Of money.
You're not out. You know that the money.
I might need to. I might need to do another race
or two. I.
I don't know. I spent a lot of money on VV.
That's true. I do have 400 eddies from that
guy at the Bubble Cafe who just left his money on the ground.
That could go towards this. With these harpoon ammo, they're
25 each and I've got 3. Oh, I mean.
We could get all three. Holy cannolis vendor, why do you
have so much money shut? Up Wait, how?
How much money you got? How much money?
You got no, no, no, no. You can't still share my bank
account. That's that's privileged
information. Iona.
Sorry I had I had I had fresh P hack into it just now.
That's not. I don't know if you know this,
but I do have access to. Everything that has to do with
your character, it is now. I've been paying you handsomely.
I'm about saving for a home. Vendel's really good at saving,
unlike the rest of us. We won't touch your money.
Unattainable dream of owning a home.
A Night City. Sorry, Vendel, you're going to
have to keep dreaming. Hey.
Look if this city hasn't. Hardened you then there's no
hope. I don't think anybody owns homes
in Night City. It's a renting economy, baby.
It really is. I'm saying you could probably
save for like a nice apartment rather than, you know, a lot of
the other shipping boxes and containers that people live in,
so. I was going to get a condo.
You know, you should really put those into rolling CDs.
It's. A little ambitious.
Put into ACD account, but you do it in like you do a new CD
account for every two months so that once the the one that you
put it in first realizes you could take the money that you
put there, put it into a new CD account so you're always going
in and out of the market. Do you want the Grapolama or
not? Yes, please.
Yes, we'll take all three. Right, here you go.
Do you want any rebreathers? Of course.
We'll take 123455. Right.
They're 100 each one time use though, so the tanks aren't
replaceable. I've got it.
Ain't that hell they are. They're always, they're always
they just they just make them one time use so they buy them
again. Yeah, it's a disposable economy,
yo. Yeah.
And and like, if you're in the
ocean, you know, you can just throw it away.
I will not be doing that. As if the oceans.
Of Night City or the the The bodies of water in your Night
City aren't polluted enough. I think a couple of extra
breathers isn't going to kill it.
I guess it's true the all of the coral has been bleached in the
world at this point. I love, I love bleached coral.
So pretty. Got some of the wall.
Oh well, I got two questions for you.
My, my, my. Dude, hit me one.
You got any grenades? Yeah, of course I've got
grenades. What do you think I am a?
Person who rarely has grenades. Oh, great welfare.
How many do you want? 3.
What kind you're looking for? Grab bag.
Surprise me. Crab bag surprise.
You all right? That's a look.
I've got an armour piercing grenade.
You can have that one. OK.
I've got What the fuck is this doing here?
Just rolled A6 on AD 6 in this box and it's all dusty.
A depth charge? Who the fuck needs that?
Put that aside, what else have I got?
Another armor piercing grenade at what?
A depth charge, Is it necessarily?
No. No.
Yeah, Is it not? Is 1.
All right, well, I've I've, I've got two armor piercing grenades
and a depth charge, you crazy bastard.
All right. And what do we say like 300 for
the lot? Sounds good to me.
Cool. 300 And then you got any, like special shotgun ammo or you
know, smart rocket ammo? I've got basics mark rockets,
got some of those and I've got some more armor piercing shotgun
ammo. I'll take.
I'll take some of that too. Cool.
So there's fifteen shots of that armor piercing shit, and then
here are two rockets. Four of those.
Cool SO400 all together. Yes, yeah.
Yeah. Oh, and.
There's a another six. There's another dusty box back
here. One second.
Got a torpedo? What the fuck am I going to do
with a torpedo? Well, honestly, I mean, why
don't you just give us the, give us that, you know?
Give it to you. Roll.
Roll something for that. No roll.
If you want to give it to you, you roll for that roll, like
Trading or Persuasion. OK, hold.
On 18, yeah, fuck it, You can have the torpedo, I remember.
What we going to do with it, Clyde come?
On Clyde Who the fuck are you Clive with AV?
Oh, I'm, I'm, I'm redo. That's right.
TV headed twat, Right. He's just shit.
Make sure you tap to pay and I'll see you later.
Anything else? I I think that's all for us.
All right, well, make sure you take yourself a free bottle of
water as you leave. Oh, that's nice.
Yeah, I get it from sore tooth. It's part of the union, so it's
very clean. Oh, unions, right?
Yeah. No, the shop union, you you guys
helped us like you're in on it. Yeah.
The The Better Business Bureau. We're we're oh wow, This one
actually has the union label. Oh.
Look for the union label retros. You turn around, you face the
vending machine, and they're in the vending machine in a whole
row. It's a buttload of Jizzner
snaps. Well, I'm definitely getting
myself some of them, Jizzner snaps.
Jizzler snaps. Jizzner Jizzner.
God, I love. I love, Jizzler snaps.
Oh. I don't.
Like the lemon flavour? I like the the white cream
filling. Yeah.
Oh look, look. Look at the logo.
It's now has extra cheese. It sure does so.
Much ginger. Well, that'll be good.
If any of us get like, seasick, right?
We should probably get that. Yes, couple of.
Those we should all we should all eat some cheers before we
get in the water. Yep.
Yeah, that's. Well, they say not to eat, you
know, wait 30 minutes before. After eating before swimming
but. That's a rumour on the Internet.
That's not true. Oh, all right.
So retro. You buy one packet of chisnas
snacks for everyone spending machine each.
Each bag is 2 servings. Oh, I pay.
I'm not as rich as everybody else, so that's cool.
Bye, Clive. Have a good.
Day See you later. Bye, bye, bye bye friends.
Thank you for everything that you do.
Thanks for your patience to us. Thanks for getting for
continuing not to be shitty. Bye bye.
Well, I'm. Going to try to make sure I get
this torpedo on the top all right.
Torpedo or depth chart? I have both.
I'm coming in prepared a. Whole lot of explosives and you
arrive outside of Rait's boats. Well, we've been here before.
So I guess we'll just stroll right in and go through the shop
out through the back to where the dock is and hopefully find
Mr. Pie. Mr. Rait's first name PIE,
right, Right, Right, Right, Right, right.
Bye.
Let's just let's just hope nothing funny happens this time.
Hey, hello. I go up to the front desk.
We're just here to see Mr. Wright himself.
You're it's me, Jeff. I'm I, I I It's really just me
who works here. Oh sure, I am notoriously bad
with faces. I.
Also like live here as well. So once again, thank you for
saving me from the bozos. The other day, Every time.
We apologize for Jeb. He has face blindness.
I've face blindness. That's right.
Your. Hasn't been any other clown
trouble around these parts since, has there?
No, no, you've you've pretty much embarrassed them so.
So you've been able to juggle everything?
OK then. I do not appreciate.
Oh man, Reggie, you are. You are getting better and
better at those. I've I have.
I've fixed my boat. And by boat I mean submersible
of course. Oh so we can go on the top or
underneath. I've retrofitted an OTEC hammer
head multi purpose mini submarine.
Oh well, yeah, if I fitted it, yeah, it's going to be real good
then. Yeah, he is all it today, folks.
Cool. Maya Yar.
So we're ready to move out. Where the fuck are we going,
Yar? To the briny deep again.
Do not appreciate the potent Sir.
You said you had coordinates, but you never gave them to me.
Where we going? We're.
Going, we're going coordinates, the other coordinates.
Are they on the thing, on the messages that we got?
Iona has coordinates. Ah, I have coordinates on my
tile here. You're Oh dear.
I don't know how to read this, yes.
The M5, please. The M5?
That's the one. OK.
And are we just going up to the oil rig or?
We are going below it. Oh, fuck, right.
Well, my submersible can only go about 450 feet under.
So how many yards really, really deep?
We don't know. Fucking metric system.
Sorry. Help myself on that one.
That was a good one, that both of those jokes were good.
So do you want to just get in the boat or do you have more
information for me? I mean.
Am I just dropping you off and fucking off or am I doing
something else? Well, you're gonna wait for us?
Of course. What?
Yeah, It's like, do you have to, like, communicate from the
surface and make sure we're all good?
I mean we it's not dangerous, though.
I'll be. I'll be safe.
Now I don't remember signing that on the dotted line.
Is there anything important I need to know?
If we're going underwater places abandoned, there's probably
nothing there. No, there are turrets.
What? And there's depth charges.
Oh, fork. But I I also have a depth charge
right here. Oh.
Noise. Oh, and I got AI.
Got a torpedo on the back of the of Vanna White too.
Holy shit. Fire torpedoes.
Got a torpedo on the back of Vanna White?
Well, go get it. Bring it here.
All right, I'll go get the torpedo.
You go and get the torpedo. You bring it back and it it's
it's now that you're holding in your hand.
In this light, it's smaller than you thought it would attach to
your rocket launcher, and you could fire it underwater.
Oh yeah, Maybe I'll just hold on to this for right now.
Your That's a baby torpedo. I like that like a Caterpillar
of the sea. That's.
Oh, that's that's exactly what it says on there.
It says the cat, it says the. Caterpillar of the.
Sea. Yeah, right.
So you want me to We're not going to the surface.
You want a map or something? Yeah, I'll give him the
schematics. Just just give him the oil
require. That's what I did.
Oh. OK, you're OK.
Service, right? OK.
Mines. Oh shit.
I told you. OK.
It's going to have to take some skillful piloting.
Well, that's why we're hiring you.
Yeah, it's a good thing I disabled the restrictive Sis
that help you pilot the soap. Fuck that shit.
Do it all manually. Do I know if it's good or bad
that fills you with unease? Does anyone have a jizz jizz and
her stabs left? I feel a little sick.
I've got a spare one. I have a couple.
Thank you, Vendel. Appreciate that.
You're welcome. You've got a bit of my jizz on
jizz. That was so good.
Oh. You mean you've got a little
jizz nurse snap on your on your lip just there?
Well, I mean not lip on your CD drive.
Just wipe it off retro. You're quite.
Clean. God.
All right. I'm sorry about this.
I just. I don't know why everybody
thinks that jizz nurse nuts are so funny.
Quite tasty. I like the way they feel as they
swallow. God, I need to stop.
Right over that shit. Let's get out of here.
He just fucking leaves and goes towards the boat and you head
out to the docks and out to the sub will get inside and as you
get inside there's enough space for you all.
There are seats in the inside, and some of the seats actually
sit in a little turret position, so you can shoot from this
little turret. And there's a space on top of it
that you can stand out in the open and fire from an outside
turret. But it needs to be manned, and
since you're underwater, that person would have to be using a
rebreather or some kind of suit, and it can go pretty fast.
If one of you wants to give up shooting, you could help drive
and then you'd be able to avoid things better, but that's up to
you. All right, so where's everybody
sitting? Dibs on Navigator.
Going to be honest, first I'm on the water.
For your Julie here. So I'm going to go ahead and be
as close to the edge of the boats possible, so when the
inevitable hurling starts, it'll just go right out that.
Explains the Dramamine OK. Jeb, you do know so under the
water, right? You do realize this is a sealed
vehicle, right? Will I imagine we'd be up on the
surface for. Through the window that doesn't
exist, just. OK, well then hand me a bag,
Captain, and send me. Bags.
Sick bags are underneath your seat.
Oh, there we go. English hard.
Oh, great. Don't hold the sick for too long
since the bag is biodegradable. I guess I'll sit somewhere in
the middle. All right.
So Jeb, you're rolling on that that turret right over there,
you carpal, are you going to sit on that turret?
Yep. Yes, I am.
Aye, aye, captain. Oh, I like that.
You could guess what. Yes.
Can I take a sonar? Position, Sir?
Absolutely. All right.
This is great. You all being part of the team,
That's good. Yes, excellent.
So because I don't have an A, any AIS controlling the ship,
we'll have to do it. So you and me, retro.
We're going to be zooming around underwater, cowboy.
If you see anything big, come close to the ship, shoot it.
Because on that plans it looked like they had those, those mines
and they can drift towards us and that'll be dangerous.
You know what, I'm really glad we're not going on the surface
because there's been a few pirates out there recently.
I'm glad that we won't be getting into a fight with them.
No, because you're you're our only captain and you feel the
submarine come to life as the propellers and engines spool up
and the submersible drives out into the ocean on the surface.
You told me when you want us to submerge.
OK, I think we're we'll go a little bit without needing to
submerge now, right? Sounds good.
Yeah. All right.
Everybody. Well, no, you retro man.
Oh, roll for it. Sure, I'm going to roll.
And Jeb roll Resist Torture drugs.
Dang, that was pretty good. 29 and 12 Jeb, you managed to hold
your your stomach. Oh boy, it's coming up but out
of. Control Out of control.
Here's another just a snap if you need it.
I do. Thank you.
Appreciate that. And you come to a little space
underwater and you can see a bunch of depth charges and
turrets in the distance retro. You've rolled high enough that
none of the turrets have seen you, because that's a 29.
You can choose what to do at this moment.
Let's keep close to the walls. Hopefully.
Maybe we'll. Kind of meld in with the seawall
and the whatever sonar detectors they have won't notice us if we
go at a slow pace. What do you think, Captain?
All right. Quarter Head full.
You can. Hear the depths of the water
ushering. Around here.
All right. Gently.
No, gently. Easy does it.
Here we go. Boogly.
Tell.
Oh, I'm rolling good today. Yeah.
Yes, you managed to. Oh.
What? Did somebody see something on
the radar? What am I?
I'm not looking bad, it's pretty bad.
It's not great. It's like Minesweeper.
Oh boy, should we start shooting them or just kind of stay the
course? Can we stay in this a straight
line and don't drift at all? We should make it perfectly past
everything unless they drifted to us.
You drift a bit further between the mines as you get closer the
vehicle. Exits.
Its way NA little bit in the water closer to one of the mines
you see it starts to drift towards the sub.
Oh, that's not good, is he? Lord, no, we should.
Are we able to veer? Oh, right.
No, right veer, right. Is that after port?
Fuck, where do I Where do I go, Retro?
Roll roll. C Vehicle Tech No Roll C Vehicle
Driving. I like tech better.
Tough shit. We're driving it now.
Civil. The mine comes dangerously close
to the front of the sun. It's going to explode unless you
do something. God damn it, Binary, you're
causing my heart to actually hurt right now.
I'm actually getting anxiety right now from.
This. See.
We just shoot it then. Whose?
Whose port side? I don't know.
I'm. I'm on the left, that's.
You Jeb. Oh, shoot it.
OK. 16 Yes, that's a good roll. That is a good roll.
If you'd roll 15 or less, you would have caused it to explode.
But instead sort of trick shot a bullet or two off the top of
this mine and it starts to spin, causing it to stay right where
it is. Oh boy.
The sub drifts past the mine. OK, I did not like that.
Oh shit. That was a close one.
Good shot, cowboy. We're safe.
Looks like you might be useful after all.
Oh, thank Deb. My kidneys hurt.
I'll just lower the ship a little bit.
I'm sure that'll be Oh no, mine. Oh no.
Who's on? Who's on the right side?
The aft aft Port Starburn would be me, Captain.
I'm gonna shoot it. As soon as I find heavy weapons,
I'm gonna shoot it. Oh, God.
Oh, no. It's a bad day.
On roll 20. It's a.
Bad. Wait, Wait.
Wait. Wait.
I might have inspiration.
Hold on, hold on. I might have been.
I do. Actually I have an.
Expiration. I will reroll.
All right. And for this reroll, I'm
actually going to put two points of luck in two wives.
Yeah, it's better. Much better.
Yeah, you roll an 11 and as it comes towards the ship you
manage to shoot it pretty square and it gets pushed back deeper
into the ocean and explodes. You feel the shockwave of the
explosion. At the ground.
But because you rolled over A10, it doesn't cause any of the
other mines to explode. It has caused a tiny bit of
structural damage to the boat. Not enough to make it sink, but
enough to make you feel uncomfortable as you hear it
creak. Good fucking Lord, Jesus, your
fuck. I literally just said shivers go
up and down my body. What's going on?
All right. That was a close one.
Nice one, Corporal. Thank you, Captain.
And you move forward. Now this last bit is going to
take a little finessing in the distance.
In the depths beneath the redshift of the water, you can
see the shadow of your destination, the staging area
underneath the oil rig. To get into this area, you're
going to have to be pretty delicate.
Because if you. Remember on your schematic there
are a few turrets there, so retro.
Roll Stealth and Pilot C vehicle.
Oh, boy. Oh, God.
All right, let's let's do stealth first.
All right, now let's do Pilot C vehicle 1st, and I'm going to
put three points of luck into this, OK?
Ten. Yes, very good.
You managed to get just to the very bottom of the sub's limit
in terms of pressure. You feel it Creek around you.
It takes a little bit more damage because you went a bit
too low. Come underneath the turret,
rolling a crit +7 for 21 and entering the oil rig staging
area completely silently. You've made it into this first
step of oil rig M5. I don't know why, but I have a
sinking feeling. Next time on no latency.
Delve out. I'm getting plank onto the dock
and I can just feel the pressure of the compressed air down here.
Okay, there's a couple of wet suits here, so and a rebreather,
so we need some extra stuff. At least we know it's here.
Should we have retro go in and you know, take a look at this
padlock or something, see if there's an alarm and behind the
glass is a desk and there is someone sitting at the desk.
I I have an idea actually. I'm getting a little light
headed from the alcohol smells so strong.
I'd like to help just by sending good vibes.
This is. Kind of a lot.
Yeah, I think Tim's pretty pretty, pretty excited to get in
there. Am I Tim or Eric?
I forgot. Well, I'm.
I'm Tim. You must be Eric.
The coast is clear. Jeb's handling the last of the
guys in there, and then we should be good.
Let me double check. All right.
All right, let's go. I'm following you.
Well, that was a close one. Guys, I can't open the door.
