Hello everybody and welcome back to a very special game.
Soda, pisode of infinite Quest where you finish a quest.
I usually go up but I decided to go down.
It's like it's backwards. Really good computer.
Shutting down to knee, knee, knee fur.
That's not right, don't play that that phrase, it's not
anything. What if I was like?
It's me Satan. But I just didn't know about
some. I said, Jesus, I mean
statistically possible, you know, monkeys on typewriters or
whatever. Be, I can't do it.
Say, how did you say? Say, say 10 sad test that tests.
See if this is totally off topic.
But there's an interesting distinction to be made like eyes
because it because a lot of people like practice that is a
scope. It's fun, right?
Really. But there's yeah, We're back
working with, you know, but there's an interesting
distinction like I saw one Tick Tock made by this guy who does
that and he goes a lot of so you'll see a lot of tax account
of people saying things backwards.
You know like this and he plays a little thing of something like
RAB NE tog is I just made that up I know but it's whatever
backwards and he comes back and he was nested you know denigrate
what they're doing. That's still really cool but
what I prefer to do is phonetically say it backwards so
it's not just like if you were to reverse the letters and then
say that word it's like phonetically what does it sound
like? See That's what I was that's way
harder. I feel like I feel like it is
too. Yeah.
Interesting enough. Phonetic palindrome say yes.
Say yes, is if you play that audio backwards, it's still so
say yes it begins and ends symmetrically with the same
mouth. Sounds.
Yeah. To.
That was really cool. Say yes.
There's no saying yes. Would you like to say yes to me
and it'll be close to your bedroom?
Yes, sir will not replace today. I'm sorry.
Did you say three magic to Magic?
That's a long, you. All right, so we ended up with
so where we left laughs off was Henry.
Going to the third. That's right.
Watch stopped. That was our event.
Yeah, it looks up saw. Also for them to you, my friends
weren't listening. He looks up sees this like light
in the sky. Like a new light like a new
bright star. Yep.
And then looks at it. Checks his watch and it stops.
Yeah. So it was your thing.
I just want to make sure yeah no, that's right.
So now you get to ask questions, stayed opinion, or show a
consequence. Whoa.
And while you're doing that, I'm going to get the marker because
Bailey knocked it off. What do you jerk little done to
make a bunch of noise? If you're just joining us I
spilled a glass of water all over the studio earlier time.
Well, no it's because because I put it on the floor.
Is it interesting? Like is there's an ADHD
Confluence you know? Like I didn't have a surface to
put it on because all my services company garbage.
So I put on the floor so that when you fidget it in your
chair, you push to thing which then hit it.
Yeah. Speaking of fidgeting, it's the
last night I was playing a game for Hero Forge and I was like
watching myself and I fidget more than anybody.
Like I was like I was just sitting there and I was like
sweet Linda just being like a wiggling guy and I was like I
got like really embarrassed because I was like, I never
noticed how much it was until I was like, just watching myself
with like six other people who like weren't ya?
Jesus. Yeah, I think that's like a
measurable way that they test for ADHD.
Do they use it? And have you ever dare to show
you that video? There's like a really cool
research project that happened? I think.
Out of jail, I want to say but basically they filmed a
classroom full of kids and you could pick out the kids with
ADHD which is based purely on how much they move.
Oh nothing else. No other testing.
No other like anything so it was used to diagnose.
It was you said like identified. Yeah they were just like there
was a correlation. Yeah.
And 100% of the time. It worked.
Every time. Wow.
Because it was just like squiggly.
Yeah. I've been like this in a town of
like little girls and stuff like this little squiggly, squiggly,
squiggly. Interesting.
I've So we just got back from Connecticut to see my
grandparents and my grandfather. Why talk about all the time.
If not on the podcast in real life, I do at least my
grandparents are cool. Anyways, he's a very stoic guy.
Like he's the last person you would think has ADHD, and I'm
not saying that he does, but he's very stoic, very measured,
very conductive but he is always you may have noticed this too.
He's always always always when he's sitting like not at a
table, he's always shaking one of his feet just sort of idly
not Rhythm not like back and forth and back and forth, but
like I'll just sort of swing it around and sort of like play
with the weight of his own foot. It is but he's done it.
As long as I've known him which is kind of interesting.
It's like that's a internal World thing that he and I both
have in common were like, I have to have some sort of stimulus
going on in my hands or feet, you know.
Anyhow. So we're looks up and sees the
light, okay. And then I'm adding s questions
seen opinion or hey Bailey. No ma'am.
You gotta be a good time, podcast, talk?
Yeah. To be a good podcast dog.
Can't eat stuff. Tough.
Um, any garbage and also the state, an opinion that can just
be, that could be the opinion of a resident.
That could be an opinion of me or is just an opinion.
Yeah. Okay, I'm General opinion.
Hmm, Pastor question. All right, I guess I'll ask a
question, which is here, iced coffee.
Yes, that's my cheese. Really taste the half-caff.
Yeah. Well you see a screw?
My question is, does the mayor notice?
The think of this will actually, did you say that they both look
up in the sky or yeah? You they both look okay.
Yeah, I mean maybe does the mayor no?
Nona? Take your question for me.
But does the mayor notice? Henry's reaction?
Just watch topping, right? And it doesn't need an answer.
Yeah, I guess what was on? It also has those are told.
Question is does the mayor notice?
Henry notice that is watch that. Hmm.
My question is, what is his reaction?
Because we don't know. Yes, it's true.
Okay, that's you. Okay.
Hey, and I would say, looking at the clock, like three more
rounds problem. Just see actually, cuz if we
placed some more characters than yeah, yeah, yeah, I'ma Do, it
will happen like vignette, eat. I'm totally.
Yeah, time. Well having Blue Yeti time.

So shall he reap? Okay.
This is the question for you. Yes.
Because I'm genuinely interested.
Yes, you wrote it on the board as CWS as a man.
So it's like a tailor and I'm not making fun of you.
I'm wondering did you do that? On purpose is like a double
entendre? No, I didn't do that on purpose.
I don't I didn't know that. It's not how you so so this is s
0 WS. It's like sowing seed versus
sewing. Oh yeah, no, I thought it was
sewa That's good. I didn't mean to, like,
embarrass you. But it was like, oh, is that
like a clever play on words for like bringing stuff together?
Oh, interesting. I mean, I guess.
Yeah. The same kind of thing.
Yeah, I'm cool. But no, I just funny when I
wrote that down, I was I felt proud of myself because I was
like, that's not how you, you know, you say you pronounce the
word differently than it's spelled.
It turns out. It was the wrong.
That's right. You do pronounce.
It's just what. It's just like double smart.
Thanks, that's good. Okay, what I feel, really bad
that I call this and I'm sorry. No sweetie.
It's I would always rather be corrected.
Could you imagine like the amount of random like mistakes
and whatever is malapropisms that we would say all the time
if people never corrected as yeah try to make it a bit like
my content and of mine. People.
Correct me in the comments. If it's good heart, you know,
like like, oh, actually it's this because it's like, yeah
Quicks, you know? It's interesting kind of ways.
So as a man s ows Soze, okay, so okay, and you to go first.
Oh yeah, I do. You can pay some Landmark even
my you can put a landmark more than one landmark.
The neighborhood and you can also if you also want to spread
them out. Hmm.
I'm tempted to like make the mayor character, you know,
because we keep were interacting with the mayor and it's like
who's the mayor? You can see that because you can
also put more than one. Yeah, I'm the same way.
Yeah, no. I'm gonna do what now?
I just got excited and I know you're going to do.
I'm gonna do trench Fort, okay, trench for it.
Okay, I'm going to make a landmark there.
R. Okay, and it is going to be
okay, well, if you don't want to interrupt you, but I do want to
let you know that if the birthday party was for an
Italian race car driver would be Mario.
Andretti's birthday, confetti, mom's spaghetti, blue.
I think, what was the original one that it wasn't Blue Yeti?
I don't know. We could let me said, Blue Yeti
hose for The Listener knows. There's nothing like it was this
dumbass female ask an infinite quest podcast.com to let us know
what You scream most frequently at your phone while you're
playing this. The car radio.
My car radio a lot me too. I'm just like God damn it.
Okay, the landmark in trench for is going to be the McManaman his
basement. What a good name.
Tell me about the mechanic mends basement.
McManaman McMahon them in the name of my dad.
Stepdad was Patrick failing McManaman, but that is so so
fucking name. Patrick Patrick, flail, flail
and Falen, face. Not a spell Fitzpatrick, Phelan.
It might be sey. Aha, and or whatever incredible
name. Sorry.
Anyway, so it is. So it's going to be basement.
The McManaman is basement. Their commands are a family so
it's like the McManaman is plural is a family.
Of will say great influence in that Community, like their
movers and shakers, and their basement contains.
Their basement is basically the meeting place of all of the
movers and shakers, in the trench work Community because
like the police don't really give a shit, you know, whatever
the city, the city itself, like the government of the city
doesn't give a fuck about transfer, they've been for it.
So you've gotten used to solving problems on their own.
And so they had to create sort of, they're not necessarily A
government but like, Are you just looking at our perfect dog?
Be no! It's her ears.
Really close to the wheel and we know grade.
Now this comes to build structures that are mature.
Tears can't sleep. Oh.
So like they've had to basically create a body of people who make
the stuff happen, you can. I mean, you could kind of think
of them as like a gang but not really like, they just, you
know, they're the ones who determine how the community
deals with problems and stuff. And the McManaman is basement,
is like, The Unofficial meeting, I mean, it's the official
meetings own, but it just looks like a regular basement, which
is why they use it so that they can basically claimed that this
whole group doesn't exist. So that's the other.
McManaman 's basement, McMahon and big bass meant landmarks
have address. It'll be 2 2016. 8 Ur stream,
Nice fix. And it's true.
Name is the seat next to the seat and the table now?
Yeah, does he is, he will go along.
I don't feel like they go over the tale of two families.
Will feel like it and something. Something I'll give you $100.
If you can tell me box, I needed.
Every time I did you could have never done.
I don't to to house Has both alike in dignity and respect.
No, not dignity and what? Let's just agree.
It's just dignity, two households, both alike in
dignity, in fair Verona where we lay our.
So in fair Verona Tennyson. Damn it.
That was, you know, it was there.
You like dig Mitty. I did you can't see, but Kate
made of digging gesture. However, I would say that I was
saying dignity, before you did, they were digging gesture.
I just want that to be known. That's a hilarious bit from the
complete works of William, Shakespeare approached.
Dig. It dig me is like, it's like a
pull. It's in the script anyway.
Sorry, please continue about the descriptive.
What complete works of William. Shakespeare bridged.
Oh huh. It's a play.
That's okay. It's not actually the complete
the bridge to complete. Well, no, it's the one with
like, three guys and they like improv, like all the different
Shakespeare shows. Oh, Eric.
Have you never seen the complete works of William?
Shakespeare average? No, I never heard.
Is it a show? Yeah.
Oh, you are you fucking? I'm not fucking with you.
I've never heard. I thought it's so good.
It's so it's like it was like it was okay, so the complete works
of William. Shakespeare Bridge is a play and
it was written by the come. They have a name, I can't
remember. But basically it's three guys.
I was funny. It's really really funny show
and they go and the whole thing is like they're trying to do all
the plays of Shakespeare in one night and so they're just making
shit up as they go. There's like this whole thing
but it's very, very favorite show and it's very, very funny
and you should be in it. You would be amazing me.
I've directed it three times. Oh, really?
Yeah, that's cool. Be so good in that show.
Bobs, thanks. Do you want to do it?
But it's the same. But it's only two people, it
would be very hard to make that show to people, Joe.
I would rather find a third actor and actually produce it
because it would be great in that show.
Well, thanks, I'd love to sir. We're gonna watch it.
There's a really good video of it.
That's awesome. I'm so sorry.
Anyway, McManus. Oh, I finished, the round has
really changed. I think it's great.
It's great. Woman is why this thing is just
like you're having a conversation but it's around
something that you can return to doing.
And it can always always conjures, random, weird shit
that I see. Either thinking about our know.
Okay so in trench for it the McManus basement at 2201 seder
Street. Also its true name is the seat
and it is the place where the movers and shakers of trench for
it. Meet to discuss trench for it
happens. All right, I'm going to
immediately build a character Place very inspired.
Okay, dude. Um, but solves our, this is
awesome dude. We tell the story.
I just had to move. It was like don't suppress it
just be happy. This is cool as shit.
Okay. Because now that I kind of know
the flow of it, it's like we're fucking yeah.
All right. So I would like in the McManaman
Spaceman, there is a young man. He is tall.
He is handsome. He is classically good-looking.
He is like strong in that way where you're like oh he works
outside. All day long like he is he is
that kind of strong and he's like a little rough around the
edges but he seems like a pretty nice dude.
Except he has a determination and a focus and a hard set.
Nisai about his jaw that you would look at him and you would
say he might be handsome but I'm not gonna fuck with that guy.
Do you mean when you say about his jaw, you don't mean
concerning his jaw. You mean like there's an air.
Yeah. There's like No.
Yeah, around it. Yeah.
That gives the impression. Yeah.
She's like, he's like, not fuck with apple.
What do you mean every outward way?
He sort of appears to be a nice guy.
Yeah. Click onto the surface.
How old is he? I would say probably around
like, 22, 22, 22 22. He's younger.
Is he like, is he like a married?
22 year old type or is he like a?
He is a kind of 22 year-old type.
He is was just getting to it because I'm gonna break the game
because I can because rather than Focus on this young man,
whose name, by the way is Liam that madman and Mammon, and
McManaman ice. I'm sorry, man.
Oven, I knew it was gonna be hard on her pick manaman but
there anyway, so that's Liam McManaman, but he is in the
basement with a couple of his brothers, a couple of his
brother's friends and a couple of just you know younger guys
from the community doubted trunch Forts and they are having
a meeting of this group. Whose true name is?
The Deep Pockets, that's the cool name of their cool Fight
Club gags big. So that's the true.
Just they don't call it that or is that it's that's what name.
That's what people around town would be like, oh those guys,
they're, they're Deep Pockets. Like you don't wanna okay, cool.
Okay? When yeah, I like that.
Alright, yeah, that's cool. Okay.
I just went like full peaky, blinders.
No, it's great. Actually make man.
Just listen. Okay, I'm gonna Minnie Minnie,
Minnie, Minnie Minnie Minnie and he's a, he him and and I'm just
going to say and leave me in a minute in the deep pocket.
Sounds like a band. That's fine.
Maybe they are bad. We don't know yet.
And so for this vignette, I would like to focus in on this
sort of gathering of guys and a couple of them are Talking over
in the corner and you get this sense that Liam and his buddy
are, you know, they're kind of the ones in charge there, you
know, this is a Liam and his right-hand man sort of situation
but helium helium. Yeah, sure.
Okay, would join me to talk first.
Yeah. If you would like, I like that.
This is the part where we get hung up because they're so like
awkward. No, no I'm a hugger.
I just thought, you know, I'm heavy Liam.
But yeah, am I I guess am I contributing as well or they
might Act? Ting out your thing.
I mean, I will introduce her. How about thanks?
Okay, so as we sort of focus on this moment, Liam and his much
rough-and-tumble friend. His friend looks like the
classic sort of sidekick looking guy.
He's a little shorter, he's a little heavier set.
And he'd be like, yeah, that guy's the sidekick, like Central
Casting, psychic energy, big sort of sideburns and a kind of,
I just realized I'm describing Le fou fous.
What I was picturing in my head. And and so this character whose
name is Frank, slide sort of a hand-drawn map over a piece of
paper on a piece of paper across the table to where Liam is
sitting kind of arms folded. Slumped back in his chair a
little bit and he Taps the piece of paper and he says that's what
my guy says right there. Yes.
Liam says these are all the water mains.
That's all of them that we know about according to the Ants.
But like I said, a lot of times, you know, the plans, I mean,
they're changing all the time especially with what they're
doing down in uh, you know, Wilkes.
So that's that's what my guy says.
And he he tends to be a guy knows what he's talking about.
And we have boys here and here right now, what happened to him?
No, they split, they split like weeks ago.
We haven't heard from them for like what?
He did Johnny Wilkes boys. Yeah.
Like two three weeks. I didn't tell.
In the split, they got sick. Were they drinking that water?
I don't know, but they got stink just like everybody else done
well if they got so we haven't heard from him in a couple of
weeks now. Alright.
So right called him a Roy's and have them send a team to try to
find them to make sure they're not dead yet.
And we'll just get a team of five down there to replace them
as well. All right.
Do you have anybody in mind? Yeah, get that new kid, his dad.
Has moved here from fucking somewhere.
Who knows? Get the new kid and send him
with Johnny and I don't know what.
Johnny pick the rest of him. He's doing well question for
you. The new kid, has he?
Um, Frank sort of gestures unsure Italy.
Has he been you know, sworn in? Does he know?
But would like the are we sure about him like he just moved to
town. It's a big step for somebody
new. Yeah, I know he loves, he chose
his pinky Jesus Christ. Yeah, it's really weren't doing
that anymore. It's been a while, hasn't it?
No, he's fine. So your whole take Johnny,
they'll go back and make sure they stop for a bit more though.
You know, the stuff on their way, they had to make sure they
have enough to add. All right, you sure about this
never? Okay, sure.
Liam McMahon Omens. True name is the Puppet Master.
Wow. Okay.
And then an event happens. I feel like I'm parts that I
could have been like vague but not because like I wanted to
like put burden on you as like anybody but I want it.
I didn't want to choose yet, you know, guys, like I wanted to
leave it open, which is kind of cool because I don't like
normally wouldn't think that way I would.
Yeah. It would be like a just say a
thing, like, whatever. But yeah, it's like because it's
like you have a choice, you know?
Because it's like if you choose something then that's
immediately Cannon and that generates and more infinite
amount of possibilities. But if you also leave it open,
then you don't, you know, so Sort of, like, six of one
half-dozen the other? Yeah, cool.
Some kind of basement. And so now, it's an event,
right? And event.
And it's you and it's me. Let's just go ahead and say,
hmm. The cost of spring water from
the mountains goes up. Okay, doubles.
Will set. Does it go up in every part of
town or does it go up in certain parts of town?
Where does this happen? It goes up all night Citywide.
Just going to deal with the cost of it.
In general goes up it's weird to think of a town in 1912 like
paying for water. Was it a thing?
Let me we pay for water. ER, I mean, yeah, but like how
long have people been paying for water?
And how much it was just like, yeah, we gotta, well, I don't
know. Yeah.
I mean, it's fine. That just means that this, like,
in this Society. Yeah.
And this water is, is already a commodified resource.
Yeah. But doesn't mean that you're
wrong, you know? It's just like, oh, shit.
That makes a big difference. What is videos about like Henry
Cahill's motivations? Like what is his immediate
motivation was his Grandeur motivation basically like and I
don't know, I'm just sort of trying to like plan angles and
hmm. It's also going to see.
I don't know what you're going to do, either.
I know so it's like I can sort of find something.
Like this isn't my story so like maybe that's what happens.
Yeah, it's cool. I have a, I have a fan theory
about memory, okay, help. Yeah, I'm not gonna tell you.
Okay, what happened? The pink ones.
And then so questions opinions. All right, um Casa water going
up. What's gonna happen to trench
for it? An opinion.
How deep are the Deep Pockets? You know who watches the
Watchmen? Yeah.
Okay. Great Compass.
Katie Compass Katie. Where's my green?
No, I lost it again. It was just in my hands a green
marker, right? Yeah.
Where did it go? You were sitting on one of those
types of chairs and since to eat stuff.
Yeah. Hey found a pen.
That's not the right thing. Where did it go though?
For real Sierra, it's fine. I'll just put out a post it.
This is ADHD, should never listen to his play, a game where
we lose the pieces that we were holding two minutes ago, huh?
I saw your world may never know. No, no under the Autumn.
Yeah, maybe it's is Bailey. Bailey stolen.
We should probably start out. For you must have been right?
But that's okay. I guess that means we haven't
used it since we can welcome back to infinite Quest.
It's me your host patches over way.
I'm okay. So the compass for this round is
going to be Oh my gosh, this is so hard.
Sometimes. Nice is different than good.
All right, I like that. It is that made it up, did you?
Yeah, nice for sure. Cool.
I'm not doing well, that's really good.

to into the woods, my head and I wasn't listening at all.
No I was sitting there and take X your camera strangers.
Even flowers have their dangerous because scary is
exciting but nice is different than good.
That's okay, I'm done now. Um, There's like two people who
just got really excited. I bet email students getting
requests. I guess, how come I'm gonna
build a landmark. Um, and I'm gonna build a
landmark in. This will be our second last
round. Okay.
Um, I'm gonna build a landmark in art Meadows and it is going
to be a bench. It's a fairly innocuous wrought
iron. Bench, nice sturdy.
Wooden handles. They replace them every couple
of years to, you know, take the strain off the damage that
weather causes and the bench is address, is sort of like off the
beaten path. It's part of the park, but it's
not a part, you know, it's not like right in the center by any
stretch. Also meant to ask you delivered,
how big is the park is it? Well, I would say it's like a
marker like I would say would be like a tenth of Central Park,
like it is, it's not huge. Like you could reasonably kind
of get lost in it. It, I would say it's like a like
a like a city park, so like maybe a couple of blocks, okay?
But it's not like you're getting lost there just like enough
bushes, where there's like a little privacy if you want to
make out, you know, there's like a hill, you know, and there's
like a gazebo, you know, and that's where they have stuff in,
like the Fourth of July or whatever.
And yeah, so the actors of the bunch is off the beaten path.
And it's true. Name is introspection.
Okay. Hmm.
Okay. Introspection.
I instantly have like five characters that I want to do.
Okay, I will do. I don't know if I want to
introduce this as I mean, I guess I could introduce this as
a resident, but I guess I'll introduce as a resident because
well whenever I'd like to introduce a resident, it is an
envelope taped to the bottom of the fetch.
Okay. Do I feel like personify the
envelope? I think so.
Okay I guess the envelope would just be quiet and we're just
sitting, you can put the lamp you can make it a landmark.
Mark, could I okay, well, I guess I'll just be just, it just
happens to occupy a very similar space, all right?
Yeah, so let's make a landmark, okay, it doesn't matter color
code, maybe envelope and the draw draw the levy envelope.
It's address is under the bench. And it's true name.
Katie it strewn is Blood in the water.
Nice. So good at coming up with names.
Thanks. Okay, bam.
Okay. Um.
Question opinion consequence, right?
Because there's no vignettes because there's no.
Oh, yeah, okay. - Rhett. Oh, that's gonna mess.
No, it's okay. Um, we can we do in a bit?
Oh yeah. The water going on?
Yeah, cause water went out. Um, there is a cave in at the
mines. Oh shit.
Okay, interesting. Okay.
And so how in terms of like chronology.
So the letter was there before the cave in, right?
Maybe, I don't know. Okay, cool.
I would say like chronology can be what you want it to be.
Okay so if you are like it was there before gets place after
like I think that's something that you could flush out now to
like give context, okay, because it entered, it really makes a
difference, doesn't it? Yeah because like it's cool.
I like those small details. Yeah.
Because then like the envelope could be regarding the cave in
if it happened. Mm-hmm after.
But if it happened before and then it couldn't be yeah.
Or it could be a warning, it could be.
Oh yeah, the Catalyst for it happening.
Like here's your mark. Go at it like Liam sent it out,
it could be something completely unrelated, you know?
Yeah, damn. Okay, so question to me or
question, kind of opinion consequence?
To me, I guess, right? Yeah, it is the Union of it is
the opinion of Liam's, right-hand man, Frank Frank
broke that. The bench is the stupid place to
hide. Illiterate okay, what happens if
this envelope gets into the wrong hands?
That's my question that I'm asking as Frank, what uh-oh,
what happens if there's a focus of the wrong kids because I Is
it suffering toxin that so Frank sucks?
Okay, Compass Eric Compass me. Oh yeah.
Mid game mitigate me game like to begin middle of a chess game,
which I was always really interesting by the way.
So like I'm sure you probably already know this, but like for
contacts, like in a chess game, there's three phases as the
opening which is just when you're moving your pieces into
the initial setting. So there's the mid-game heard
like development where the middle of the and then the end
game when it's like, there are very few pieces left in the
board and it's just kind of stuff around what I always
thought was interesting about that, is that there's no The
time it's not like, okay, well after the fifth move, it's now
the mid-game like, I'm sure people have opinions on it, but
like I just thought that was interesting is you can look at a
chess board and be like, oh, they're in the mid game but
like, why? You know, I just thought was
really interesting that those distinctions can so clearly be
made such to use like in professional settings.
Yeah. But they're also completely
subjective. Yeah, I was interesting.
Anyhow Compass Mickey. Okay, so it's up to you if you
want to show ya a Neighborhood Land.
Mark resident. This is I'll say it's the last
round for now for now. Yeah dude.
We we've been playing this game for like almost two out.
Well I don't know half plus. Wow.
All right it's quick. Its quick yeah I love that.
You can just sort of like do it. I only like we could just be
doing this. Yeah and then you let me go make
a sandwich or whatever. And what's really interesting
too is like how the vignettes can go because sometimes you
really get it like in your like we're just gonna be like because
the last time I played this I think there's one where we
literally went for like 15 minutes.
We have like an entire You know, and it was great and we're like
yeah we're gonna like this, just keep going and it was like
really cool, you know? Mmm.
Okay I I love my outfit so much. That's a really nice outfit
sweets. Look like this.
They should. My, can you do?
That's exactly what you look like, with the buttons case.
We have for this week, I'm going to make A landmark.
Okay. It's going to be at the mines,
okay? And it's going to be the spring,
the spring, the actual spring. Yeah.
Okay. So now you spring?
Yeah. I keep picturing like a
bedspread. Oh me too.
She know your spring the address on the widest wrote address on
the thing. Okay, is Is deep in the mind,
you know, more, you know more. I said also some yeah, do the
songs but lot of stuff. Huh.
It's from Snow White. Oh, I'm sorry, I don't know why
I look so betrayed. It's rooster would Jersey and
it's true. It's true.
Name is golden teat. Special Sauce.
The golden teat Special Sauce. T is T, EA t, write T together
in a temporary. Yeah, I think yeah.
Okay. So these are at the mines where
there was just a cave-in. Yeah so you go through the cave
in damage and spring well you're certainly say anything.
Um I keep thinking, like, how long do I want the ark to be?
That's the thing we are doing wrong for forever.
Well, yeah, I know, but so cozy. Yes, I didn't.
It didn't damage the spring, but it made it more difficult,
access espressos only get destroyed it.
Okay. But like, you know, the main
yeah, Corridor that leads to the spring.
Okay. It's sort of like shittier and
it's smaller now like they can get like Machinery through there
but you can still Go in and out, you know, I guess I could say
more about the spring. But like, I guess as the at the
spring during the During the cave in at the spring cave in
happens. And you see, let's say for four
people, let's say like a 20 something year old man like a 40
something year, old woman, 60 something-year-old man.
And a let's say 15 year old boy also put bottles down.
And jump under the tables as the thing collapses, and the tables
are just covered and covered and covered.
And just the the same sort of green bottle, some of which have
lids on and are very like arranged and some of them are
just sort of open like in process, they jump out of the
tables and as soon as the Cadence stops the first thing,
somebody says is get a message to Liam, okay.
And that's my Landmark. Cool, cool.
I know you're like, Allowed to do that but you know, who cares,
you don't? Yeah, it's one of those things
where if you want to send us an email at asking, if it sounds
like you're mad. I'm going to add.
I'm so I'm so conflicted I'm so conflicted because part of me is
like I want to like lean into this and be like let's do it.
Let's let's see what's going on with the water but there's also
a lot more going on in this town than just.
Yes. Like there's this whole yeah you
know it's sort of like a meanwhile back at the ranch
type. Yeah it's like stuff going on
which took over here. I wonder where they intersect do
they intersect. Yeah.
Um, I do what I want to do, what?
I'm gonna be weird about it. I'm going to place a character.
And her name is Elizabeth. And for the forget, the lakhtin,
what's the to be named the mayor?
No. Wait.
Okay. Um, yeah, her name is Elizabeth
active. Nice.
Elizabeth actin is known very much and very well around town
because she is the mayor's daughter.
Hmm. And so she and so she's going to
be on the bench in our and Meadows.
Her pronouns. Are she her and she has Gone to
the bench very late at night. She snuck out of the house.
She is kind of like bundled up in a like a cloak that covers up
her very Vivid, blond hair and she is quietly and quickly
walking with purpose to the bench.
When she gets there, she kind of looks around.
She left, she looks to the right.
She pulls back, her cloak cloak and she is Like get with the
hood and she very sort of primly and daintily brushes off her
skirts, adjust her you know, blouse and she sits on the
bench. Very expectantly and just wait,
cool. So it's nighttime.
Cloak bench. Sit expecting Lee.
Cool going to do a vignette. Yeah, cool.
I'm sitting on the bench waiting for somebody who my Waitin For
Eric. Oh, Do you have so many options?
You know? Because you could be Liam, you
could be the mayor could be Henry, you could be somebody we
haven't even met yet. Yeah you got a lot of options,
try to feel like Oh, and she doesn't know the envelope.
Is there. She doesn't notice that she
doesn't pay any attention to her.
Fuck, do you want me to give you like a parameters?
Sure, FIFA jogs, anything. Well, I mean, I have a million
ideas thing. I don't know which one I want to
do, but you can be to give me parameters, that would help me
narrow it down though. Okay, I just want to step on
your ideas before, okay? So from across the park, this
huge hulking figure giant of a man.
Just, you know, he's the type of guy that you would nickname
them. Mountain and people be like,
yeah that makes sense and he is impeccably dressed.
Super expensive suit, you know. Very very nice.
You know like a little stud diamond stud in his cravat and
ring on his finger. He's got a nice sort of pocket,
watch chain hanging out of his best, but his shoes are
disgusting. They're covered in mud.
They in covered in dirt, they're covered in grit and it's kind of
splashed up like To the bottoms of his pants, cuffs and like,
kind of up towards the shin and it looks like he's been running.
Okay, so he comes up. He walks up, not like, rushes
up, but like he's not wasting time but he's not like jogging,
you know? So he walks up a purpose and
sits down and says, excuse me, I had to answer a call Where Have
You Been? Liam hadn't called me that there
was a fuck. This is not how he would talk.
That's sorry. Sorry you can wreak on it.
I'm sorry, that's not information that I can give out,
so readily, it's not it. I've been waiting here for 20
minutes. Have you seen your father?
I mean, yeah. It dinner, how's his mood?
What does he look like? What is this ebook?
What are you get? Why do you care?
What my dad is doing? I don't care the person who
would, please me cares. Which by the way, can I get a
name? Because I still haven't gotten
one. And I'm getting frankly, very
tired of not having answers to the questions that I have been
asking you listening. The deal wasn't that you would
get answers deal with it would get paid.
Yeah. The deal was that I would get
paid and also You know, not have to consistently put myself in
danger all the time, so maybe it's time we be done with our
little Arrangement. All right, fine.
He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a piece of paper that
says I am in a blank. Would like to relinquish his
licorice, my service to the Deep Pockets signed and then their
name, he pulls it out of his pocket.
And he puts it, I'm sort of in front of her.
Imagine he has some sort of like briefcase he kind of thing.
So we put that on knee, pulls out a really fucking nice pen
and takes off the cap and puts the cap in his pocket and then
he holds the pin out to her. Do you think I'm stupid jury's
out? I'm not signing anything the
minute. Anyone in town gets ahold of
that. The mayor's daughter is signed
an agreement with the Deep Pockets.
Absolutely not. I will not be signing anything.
I think we're done here and she goes to stand up and he says
well if you don't sign this and you don't give us the
information that we'd liked and we will consider two up'.
We will consider you to be in breach of contract.
Owen contracts. Yeah, like the first one we
signed I haven't signed anything.
This is all based on my wanting to do a favor for Liam.
I told me. I'm one favor, one time and he
has manipulated And convinced over and over and over again.
That this is the last time. This is the last time I'm tired
of doing favors, I'm tired of doing favors with a Deep Pockets
and getting nothing back in return, aside from what money,
great, I have enough of that. I was doing it for the fun of it
and now, I'm bored. And I want out, he looks at her,
not happily, but like, he knows what happens next.
He's seen this before, he knows what happens next, and he's not
against it happening. Let's sort of sort of like, he's
cosmically board. And when what he knows is going
to happen happens, it's just sort of interesting for him.
He's sort of a true neutral person and he just sort of
enjoys watching me. So he smiles, very faintly
stands up takes the piece of paper and never breaking eye
contact with her takes a piece of paper.
Folds it very neatly straightens it and puts it in his breast
pocket and he says, very well, I'll see you soon and he turns
on his heel and just walks away. Okay.
I'm going to call it. It there.
And I'm going to say Elizabeth's.
True name is the prodigal daughter.
Well, you made it two episodes into a thing before you
introduced a smart librarian. We said study Korean.
Where was that in her character's back?
No, you're right. Let's just early life.
I'm just his work there. She runs the school actually.
No, that's totally biased on my friend.
Every time you introduce like a young, usually female character,
like, it's just a stupid, she's really smart.
Yes. Yes, yeah, she's extremely
well-read and like you know, is the only character I ever played
ever except for unprepared Caster?
Yes, I'm really excited for that.
Yeah, me too. It's gonna be so different.
Yeah, I'm really scared about it.
I think you're going to be great.
Thanks. We're going to be Grim.
Like, I'm worried about the voice.
Don't, you know? Okay.
You did the voice professionally every day for buggin.
Ya, pirate voice dude, back pocket.
Yeah, it's fine. Anyway anyway.
Okay, so an event happens. I have a theory.
I have a fan theory about what I deeply deeply want you to do,
but I'm not gonna. Is it my?
Oh, it is - yeah, it's your event, you have fans.
Here's what you do. You really want you to do
something, but I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna, I'm curious to
see what you choose, okay? But you pictures afterwards, if
yours is really cool and I don't want to not do it.
But if you want to see what I would say, yeah, there was an
event. I don't know.
What's your idea? Elizabeth is found the next
morning. In the dressmaker shop where she
works on the floor, hair Immaculate, close macula
untouched, but she has drowned, what?
Okay? Yeah.
Alright. Now, let's do that.
Sure. All right.
Well, write it down. I'm so I get to ask question
State an opinion who killed Elizabeth actin and I'm going to
show a consequence. So the consequence of Elizabeth
Elizabeth being found dead, is a Massive upheaval for the town.
Um, her dad mayor actin is understandably, devastated, and
Furious and the the Deep Pockets.
Start, getting a lot of scrutiny by sort of the local
authorities, but nobody can pin anything on them, nobody can pin
anything. Because she just, it just looks
like she appeared out of nowhere, bone dry, and drowned,
and so this sort of like, lure sort of like, Ground gossip
train gets going around town about like what happened to
Elizabeth Arden? What happened, like, what really
happened that night, who was it? Where did she see?
And the more people start looking into it and sort of
trying to figure out what's going on?
The more, the sort of like turmoil starts to brew.
Hmm. And that is right.
Yeah, I have an idea. I don't know how it would
happen. What I want a scene and I want,
but I don't like spoiler because I think this be really cool.
It's okay to just like do we could just do it, we could close
with us. Yeah, let's do that.
Okay. Do you want to write it down?
Or do you want to tell me what it is?
Oh, I'll write it down. Yeah.
All right, I'll run another postcard know like put it on the
back of the Whiteboard or something.
Just so I remember it. But I have a good idea.
If you want to do it right now, that's what I'm asking.
Oh, if I just close with seen reading, close every want to
close the world, is your oyster Eric.
That's true. Yeah.
Do you want to do you want like one more one more Scene?
Yeah, quick. See if I don't need to kind of
just like, describe what happens.
Yeah. Okay, so we see Henry Cahill the
third sitting in his Tastefully opulent, sort of study hall,
he's at a desk, there's a globe, you know, is it?
A good Globe. It's like a really nice.
Okay, Globe. Yes, open up into a bar.
It is not, he's sitting at his desk.
There's a gramophone sort of playing sort of a Dusty.
Sort of, I'll be the gramophone, of course. it's actually is the
ba conventions you can grab a phone feedback is
good and the door opens big one and the Man walks in his Fiona.
It's a very deliberate Coke. Clunk as is one footsteps and
the second footsteps, and he turns to shut the door and turns
around. Does he get mug on mud on the
rug? Because issues were buddy?
No, no, one of the rock. His shoes are indeed still very
much, okay? And they're muddy and now wet.
Okay. And he walks over to the, to the
desk, the episode desk and Enrique low.
God, he just continues to write in the sort of Ledger looking
thing, and the large man pulls out the paper from his pocket
opens it, and it's still unsigned.
And he puts it next to him and Henry Cahill looks up at the
contract. Doesn't look at the large man,
takes the pain that he's currently running with.
And in the, there are three blank slots on the contract.
There's I blank relinquish my whatever.
Whatever might you know, Working for liege affiliation with the
Deep Pockets and then there's signed and there's a spot for
Elizabeth's name and then there's a spot for Liam's.
Presumably, any looks up the document and reaches over and
perfectly signs, Elizabeth actin signature, and the first W and
then perfectly signs Liam's name.
And the large man grabs. The paper doesn't fold it this
time. He walks over to a large sort of
wooden filing cabinet and opens it, a very specific drawer and
sort of shuffles back to a very specific folder.
How many pieces of paper and drawer, you know, shoot, it's
virtually foot like, it's very well written, but it's well, and
he sort of opens uses his to massive fingers, to very
delicately. Openness a single spot and he
slides the Right? Yeah, he does and then he got
damn it if I okay I deserve that one and then he shuts.
Then he shuts the thing. He takes a seat, that is sort of
a nice wood carved chair sits down crosses his legs and
checks, his watch. It's working again.
I don't know. A large man sits down and checks
his watch. Oh the large man.
Sit down. I thought Henry side down.
Oh no. Henry was sitting in the Tim.
Do you suggest the whole time? He just looked up to him.
So invested it's gonna happen. No I'm picturing.
This town we actually made a mystery.
I'm excited. I got some ideas so exciting.
I'm also picturing the large man as like a mixture of odd job.
And And Dave Batista. Yeah.
You know I'll take it like because whatever I picture like
clearly very like jacked dude. But in a really nice suit.
I was picture. It's a teaspoon.
Yeah, or some devil, my friend Gary people's.
