Actual Play - Red Markets T-Minus - EP 3 Entrance Fee

With tensions rising in the area, who knew meek, and raiders and devilied eggs oh my would end up being so profitable? They will have to be with needy dependents, uncertain payouts, bad jokes, and loose Frank Sinatra references.

Nick – The Market

Adam – Shake – A soon to be family man, fringer, unemployed weed dealer, current grow op operator, living outside of the enclave society.

Brownie – Road Salt – Crash Hero, Mining Engineer, Not Funny.

Crazon/Review Cultist/Chris – Balto – Pre-crash medic with a latent brother and an ambulance as a dependent. Playing the Driver Tough Spot.

Ethan - St. Bernard - A deeply flawed man, cracked in detachment, definitely not Benny. He's our face, but can handle himself in a fight. Playing the Fenceman tough spot.

[00:00:02] Hello and welcome to the Roleplaying Exchange. I'm Nick and I'll be running tonight's game of Red Markets T-Minus Episode 3 of our ongoing war campaign. Hopefully by now you know all of our intrepid takers. I'll let them introduce themselves in the usual ABN order, starting with...

[00:00:25] A for Adam! Hey, this is Adam and I am reprising a row of Shake. He is one of the custom classes that Nick's been working on. I'm the Fringer and it is the albatross that financially hangs me. I'm gonna have to probably have nothing but a gun and the Ubix specs and a prayer to ever afford anything.

[00:00:44] But in the last session, I pretty much almost got infected. That was bad. I had to pick up pickled eggs for my wife who's pregnant in the game, which was actually worse than the blight possibility. Just want to go ahead and...

[00:01:02] Can't remember which one of you, I don't know, assholes suggested pickled eggs?

[00:01:08] You know, at two. But yeah, so in this particular session, I'm looking forward to not touching blight or pickled eggs. So, awesome. Moving right along?

[00:01:22] I wish you luck.

[00:01:24] Okay, you are gunning for me.

[00:01:26] No.

[00:01:27] Is that gonna be the aberrant pickled egg, but casually? Never mind.

[00:01:32] Fully deviled eggs for that one.

[00:01:34] Thank you for the idea, Adam. I'll make sure to include that.

[00:01:39] That's fucking disgusting. Okay, somebody take it away.

[00:01:42] That takes it over to me. This is Brownie. I'm reprising my role as Road Salt, the Crash Hero Salt Mine Engineer.

[00:01:52] He, you know, did a few things last time around, pulled Adam out of that infection situation that he mentioned,

[00:01:58] and is really enjoying the T-minus so far.

[00:02:02] Taking us on to Crazon.

[00:02:05] Hello, this is Crazon.

[00:02:07] Or Chris, or whatever.

[00:02:09] I will be playing Balto.

[00:02:12] I will be working on the transporter spot, or testing it out.

[00:02:18] And, like Adam and his financially fickle spot, mine also has it because I'm tied to a shambulance.

[00:02:28] Gotta pay up for that very pricey-fueled demand that's going on.

[00:02:33] You say tied, I say married.

[00:02:35] Yeah.

[00:02:35] Married to the shambulance.

[00:02:37] Mm-hmm.

[00:02:37] You don't always have to drive it around.

[00:02:39] You could keep it in that garage.

[00:02:41] You have played it there.

[00:02:41] No, he really always needs to drive it around.

[00:02:44] Come on.

[00:02:45] Okay.

[00:02:47] Let's, tonight in, let's see if we can drive Balto crazy.

[00:02:52] But yeah, he's a former paramedic after the, then the crash happened.

[00:02:57] He stayed at a location where he was sent off to go check out during the crash and has survivor's guilt.

[00:03:06] Also has a latent brother.

[00:03:08] Oh, he also got Ubix bags.

[00:03:10] Thanks.

[00:03:11] Finally.

[00:03:13] Well, yeah.

[00:03:15] He's moving up with the world.

[00:03:16] He's no longer working on that low-tech.

[00:03:20] I've entered the cyber age.

[00:03:23] That's good.

[00:03:23] That's good.

[00:03:25] And I guess next would be...

[00:03:28] Hello, we're skipping the letter D.

[00:03:30] It knows what it did.

[00:03:31] I'm Ethan.

[00:03:32] And I'm playing St. Bernard again.

[00:03:34] He's been shot in the chest two jobs in a row.

[00:03:39] So, let's see what happens.

[00:03:41] Let's make it three for three.

[00:03:43] Well, I'd like to not, but...

[00:03:47] Oh, okay.

[00:03:47] I thought that's what you were going with.

[00:03:49] I wish you would.

[00:03:52] Wish you motherfucking would.

[00:03:56] Rose skating up.

[00:03:57] God damn it.

[00:03:58] It's always played everywhere you go.

[00:04:00] Apparently, our group of takers lucked out a bit when selling the rifles that they had recovered.

[00:04:08] With the threat of raiders attacking the elevation train.

[00:04:15] With the meek going around and infecting people.

[00:04:21] With the Randians trying to set up new business opportunities.

[00:04:26] People have become very nervous.

[00:04:30] And the price of guns has skyrocketed.

[00:04:34] So, they managed to get a good chunk of change from selling the three rifles they recovered.

[00:04:39] And actually all made a profit on the last job.

[00:04:43] But that money has been spent.

[00:04:45] Upkeep has been met.

[00:04:47] Devil dags have been purchased.

[00:04:50] Ugh.

[00:04:51] Please continue.

[00:04:52] And we move on to the next job.

[00:04:57] But first, vignettes.

[00:04:59] Alright.

[00:05:00] Well, I think that I took...

[00:05:03] As I walked from the kitchen to my computer to see exactly the damage.

[00:05:09] I think I need to...

[00:05:11] I think I absorbed a little bit of...

[00:05:13] Oh my god, I'm going to turn into a casualty damage the last round.

[00:05:20] So, I...

[00:05:22] I think you need to...

[00:05:25] Let me tell you.

[00:05:26] As a person who has went through this with children, you know, expecting children.

[00:05:32] You're not prepared, obviously.

[00:05:35] So, in this particular scene, we are baby-proofing our house that is located outside of the Enclave.

[00:05:44] So, I mean...

[00:05:46] It's not like we really need to worry about covering up outlets and shit like that.

[00:05:50] But, yeah.

[00:05:51] So, I kind of want to set the parameters for...

[00:05:54] That is being baby-proofing the house.

[00:05:57] And who would love to play my main squeeze in this particular scene?

[00:06:02] Would we like to keep consistent with Dependence?

[00:06:05] Or do people not care that much?

[00:06:10] I mean...

[00:06:11] Do you think you'll hurt me again?

[00:06:15] Yeah.

[00:06:16] I'll take craze on.

[00:06:17] Go on.

[00:06:18] All right.

[00:06:18] That was a pretty...

[00:06:19] That was a pretty innocent laugh.

[00:06:22] Sorry, I had a frog in my throat.

[00:06:24] Okay.

[00:06:25] So, I guess some of the accoutrements in the house are kind of rusty.

[00:06:30] Got this old and salvage and stuff like that.

[00:06:32] So, I'm walking around with a Brillo pad trying to get the rust off of the metal in the house.

[00:06:40] I mean, it's...

[00:06:42] You pick something.

[00:06:43] It's metal.

[00:06:44] It's probably rusty.

[00:06:45] And I'm probably filing away on it.

[00:06:47] Got it.

[00:06:48] Make sure you don't have that tinnitus.

[00:06:51] Or is it...

[00:06:52] No, tetanus.

[00:06:52] That's what it is.

[00:06:53] Yeah.

[00:06:54] Tetanus shots suck, man.

[00:06:55] It hurt.

[00:06:56] Anyway.

[00:06:59] So, I'm sitting there working around.

[00:07:02] I'm probably...

[00:07:03] We found a high chair for the baby.

[00:07:06] And it was rusty.

[00:07:07] And I'm kind of standing around on it trying to get it all pristine.

[00:07:11] And, yeah.

[00:07:12] Let's go ahead and start to see.

[00:07:14] And this thing was real steel.

[00:07:16] In fact, I think I actually had to steal it.

[00:07:19] But, anyway.

[00:07:20] It's no problem.

[00:07:21] This thing looks good.

[00:07:21] I've checked it out.

[00:07:23] Look.

[00:07:23] Look.

[00:07:24] And I put my hand on it.

[00:07:25] Put it kind of push on the seat a little bit.

[00:07:27] I may feel it kind of pop a little bit.

[00:07:29] I quickly pull my hand back.

[00:07:30] Like, totally hate a baby.

[00:07:32] That will hold our little boy or girl or whatever.

[00:07:36] I mean, it can hold it.

[00:07:37] Yeah.

[00:07:38] Yeah.

[00:07:38] That looks...

[00:07:38] Looks steady.

[00:07:40] I think maybe we'll...

[00:07:42] We could probably get some pillows around the bottom just in case.

[00:07:46] Mmm.

[00:07:47] Mmm.

[00:07:47] Maybe a thicker rug.

[00:07:49] I don't really see a lot of pillows or anything out there.

[00:07:52] But, I mean...

[00:07:52] I'll keep my eye out.

[00:07:54] I mean...

[00:07:54] You want an easy one?

[00:07:56] Yeah.

[00:07:57] Mine goes back to that man I shot in a car.

[00:08:00] Blood soaking through the upholstery.

[00:08:03] Oh, God.

[00:08:05] Yeah.

[00:08:05] You hear the person go,

[00:08:07] I surrender.

[00:08:08] I give up.

[00:08:09] Just let me go.

[00:08:10] Right before the...

[00:08:11] The flash of the gun.

[00:08:15] Oh.

[00:08:17] Noise.

[00:08:17] The noise of the bullet entering the head.

[00:08:20] Are you coping?

[00:08:21] Or are you...

[00:08:22] Well...

[00:08:24] I'm trying to cope.

[00:08:25] Okay.

[00:08:26] I'm trying to cope.

[00:08:27] So, I was just looking to see what I got to roll real quick.

[00:08:30] Self-control.

[00:08:31] Self-control.

[00:08:32] I think I got two in that.

[00:08:34] Yeah, I do.

[00:08:36] And we'll see how I cope with it.

[00:08:39] 12 over 2.

[00:08:41] And then, as the image fades in our film...

[00:08:44] And it's back to her...

[00:08:45] Mary Jane slash Kat talking to me.

[00:08:49] And then I...

[00:08:50] Huh?

[00:08:50] What was that?

[00:08:52] Bob the Builder?

[00:08:54] What's Bob the Builder?

[00:08:56] So, is that the scene then?

[00:08:58] Yeah.

[00:08:58] That's the scene right there.

[00:08:59] Yeah, right there.

[00:09:00] Yep.

[00:09:03] So, you can heal your column of humanity.

[00:09:06] Okay.

[00:09:07] Thank you.

[00:09:09] And...

[00:09:09] Who would like to go next?

[00:09:11] I guess I can.

[00:09:13] Anybody else has any objections?

[00:09:14] No?

[00:09:15] All right.

[00:09:15] Cool.

[00:09:16] Yeah.

[00:09:16] So, just want to make sure.

[00:09:18] So, coping is like the only one that you can do to get stressed...

[00:09:21] To relieve stress?

[00:09:22] Or is it...

[00:09:23] Oh.

[00:09:23] You all heal a column of humanity.

[00:09:26] It's just...

[00:09:28] You're not going to do it for free.

[00:09:30] You've got to vignette and something.

[00:09:31] You have to do something to earn it.

[00:09:34] Like, dealing with a flashback.

[00:09:36] Or getting something for your dependent.

[00:09:39] Or engaging in the community and helping something out there.

[00:09:42] Or dealing with something there.

[00:09:43] That kind of thing.

[00:09:44] Well, I'm going to probably...

[00:09:47] Is it...

[00:09:48] Sorry.

[00:09:48] Bury a burden?

[00:09:49] Or carry a burden?

[00:09:50] Bear a burden.

[00:09:51] Bear a burden.

[00:09:52] That's what it is.

[00:09:52] Bury a burden.

[00:09:53] I think it's called something else in the book.

[00:09:54] Yeah.

[00:09:56] I'd like to bury a few burdens of mine.

[00:09:59] Yeah.

[00:10:00] I think I'll go with that one.

[00:10:02] With my latent brother.

[00:10:06] Based on the conversation we had last time.

[00:10:09] In the vignette.

[00:10:10] So, your latent brother is Ralph.

[00:10:13] Played by Brownie.

[00:10:15] If Brownie still wants to play Ralph.

[00:10:17] Sure.

[00:10:18] So, what are you doing with Ralph there, Balto?

[00:10:22] I imagine, like, kind of tight on things we can do.

[00:10:27] Because of his living situation.

[00:10:31] So, maybe that's where this kind of comes up.

[00:10:34] Is, like, we're probably reading the same...

[00:10:36] We're probably just hanging out.

[00:10:37] And, like, maybe reading the same magazines.

[00:10:41] Or, like, books.

[00:10:42] Or something.

[00:10:43] For, like, the third time now.

[00:10:45] Or something.

[00:10:46] Are you, like, leaning against the fence.

[00:10:48] And reading it.

[00:10:49] And he's just, like, peering over your shoulder.

[00:10:51] Through the fence.

[00:10:52] Yes.

[00:10:53] And telling you when to turn the page.

[00:10:54] Yeah.

[00:10:55] That's what's happening.

[00:10:56] Oh, God.

[00:10:58] No, no, wait.

[00:10:58] I wasn't done reading that page yet.

[00:11:00] Oh.

[00:11:00] I'm sorry.

[00:11:01] Hang on.

[00:11:02] Okay.

[00:11:03] Oh.

[00:11:05] That's interesting.

[00:11:07] Yeah.

[00:11:08] What are we reading?

[00:11:09] What is this?

[00:11:11] I don't know.

[00:11:11] What did you bring me?

[00:11:13] Oh, God.

[00:11:15] We'll go with Jekyll and Hyde.

[00:11:19] Boy, that's really interesting where he...

[00:11:22] The illustrated version.

[00:11:23] Oh.

[00:11:24] That is a really nice piece of art.

[00:11:26] Yeah.

[00:11:27] I like the illustrations they put in these penguin books.

[00:11:31] Or these pelican books.

[00:11:33] Reminds me of the old...

[00:11:35] Well, what were those?

[00:11:37] It wasn't newspapers.

[00:11:38] What were those called again?

[00:11:40] Like magazines or comics?

[00:11:42] Comics.

[00:11:42] Yeah, yeah.

[00:11:43] The big ones, you know, where they put like 50 comic book editions into one big book?

[00:11:50] Yeah.

[00:11:51] The anthology volumes.

[00:11:52] Or the volumes.

[00:11:55] Yeah.

[00:11:55] I really used to like those.

[00:11:57] I know you did too.

[00:11:58] I know we looked at those together a lot.

[00:12:00] Yeah.

[00:12:01] But...

[00:12:02] And I tried finding it.

[00:12:03] I found it in my collection when I went back to the...

[00:12:06] When I scavenged through the house.

[00:12:07] But then, like, it seems like we had some rain come through.

[00:12:12] And like with the wreckage.

[00:12:13] And yeah, it just pulped my collection.

[00:12:17] I really wish I had invested in some of those dust bags or whatever.

[00:12:22] Those like plastic bags that you put comics in.

[00:12:25] Never really thought there was a point to it until I guess now.

[00:12:29] Yeah.

[00:12:30] I guess the electronic versions, I guess, probably lasted better than the fiscal ones, huh?

[00:12:35] Yeah.

[00:12:36] Oh, actually.

[00:12:37] Yeah.

[00:12:37] And I've...

[00:12:38] Oh, and like put...

[00:12:39] Kind of nods at the Ubix.

[00:12:41] It's like, yeah, I guess I can access the e-books versions now from...

[00:12:47] What's the Amazon Prime version?

[00:12:49] Or what's that?

[00:12:50] What is it?

[00:12:50] Comixology?

[00:12:52] Distributing.

[00:12:53] Yeah.

[00:12:53] Distributing.

[00:12:54] Distributing's comic department or comics section.

[00:12:58] I guess I could maybe hunt some of those in.

[00:13:01] Man, I wish I could do that.

[00:13:02] I can't use those.

[00:13:03] I don't want to, you know, don't want to get you dirty.

[00:13:07] Yeah.

[00:13:07] Find if I could do that too.

[00:13:09] Those look really fun and cool.

[00:13:11] Well, you know, maybe...

[00:13:14] Thinks on like...

[00:13:15] Aw, shit.

[00:13:18] Well, I'll see what I can do if you want.

[00:13:22] Because like, I mean, you don't have...

[00:13:24] Like, it might be an improvement for your entertainment over in your apartment.

[00:13:30] I mean, honestly, if you could find like a tablet or something,

[00:13:33] we could play games together.

[00:13:34] It doesn't have to be fancy Ubix specs, you know.

[00:13:37] A tablet probably would work better for what we're doing.

[00:13:38] I could read the books and turn the pages all on my own.

[00:13:42] Yeah.

[00:13:43] I mean, I got the Ubix because of like my job and stuff.

[00:13:46] It's more like kind of a work thing.

[00:13:47] But I could...

[00:13:49] Yeah, we could definitely see about getting you like a tablet

[00:13:51] or maybe even a laptop or something like that.

[00:13:54] Thanks, brother.

[00:13:54] I really appreciate that.

[00:13:55] Then we can, you know, have some more quality time together.

[00:13:58] You don't even have to come and lean on the fence.

[00:14:01] I mean, it's always good to see in person.

[00:14:04] But yeah, I mean, it would be like much...

[00:14:07] We'd be able to have a lot more accessibility, I guess, with the digital stuff.

[00:14:11] Yeah.

[00:14:12] I appreciate you thinking about me that way.

[00:14:14] Yeah.

[00:14:15] And then more awkward looking at the...

[00:14:17] Yeah.

[00:14:18] And seeing...

[00:14:18] Your brother wants a laptop or pad or something like that,

[00:14:24] which is a little bit more expensive than usual.

[00:14:27] But you could probably find a real beat-up old version for two bounty.

[00:14:32] Okay.

[00:14:33] Thank you for avenging me, Brownie.

[00:14:37] So just note down that you owe your brother a two bounty pad.

[00:14:42] Where's that?

[00:14:43] All right.

[00:14:44] Do I have to roll a stress or anything like that or no?

[00:14:47] No, no.

[00:14:47] That's the cost.

[00:14:48] You got to spend some bounty.

[00:14:50] Gotcha.

[00:14:51] And that's due at the end of the job.

[00:14:53] St. Bernard or Road Salt, would either of you like to go next?

[00:14:57] I can go next.

[00:14:59] Ethan, are you going to play Sparky again?

[00:15:01] Yes.

[00:15:02] Yes, I am.

[00:15:03] So I want to do Bear Burden for Sparky.

[00:15:07] We're hanging out like we do in the fuel depot,

[00:15:10] the bar and fuel depot for our enclave.

[00:15:14] So Sparky, how's it been going?

[00:15:17] I hear them have you work a little more with me gone.

[00:15:20] Yeah, they've been walking me like a mule, Rhodey.

[00:15:23] Man, I feel bad.

[00:15:25] I mean, I know that you retired.

[00:15:27] You've been taking over for me when I've been gone.

[00:15:30] Do you need anything?

[00:15:31] Is there anything I can do to help you out?

[00:15:33] I think there sure is.

[00:15:34] I seem to have misplaced my spanner.

[00:15:38] Oh, which one is that?

[00:15:40] Is it one of the special ones?

[00:15:43] Oh, it's five and three eighths.

[00:15:45] Oh, five and three eighths.

[00:15:47] That's almost big enough to put your head through.

[00:15:49] I don't even know how we got it out of there.

[00:15:53] Boy, do we know, do you know who took it?

[00:15:56] I think it might have been Lenny.

[00:15:58] I had my eye on him.

[00:16:00] He's a real bastard.

[00:16:01] Shifty little shit.

[00:16:03] I don't like Lenny much either myself.

[00:16:05] Well, I'll keep my eye out.

[00:16:06] See if I can find you a replacement for that.

[00:16:09] It's kind of specialized, so we'll have to see.

[00:16:12] Bring it back, boy.

[00:16:14] Now, how big is a five eighths or five eighths?

[00:16:17] What was the dimension again there?

[00:16:19] Well, Sparky asked for a five and three eighths wrench,

[00:16:22] which is a wrench that will turn a nut

[00:16:25] that is almost half of a foot wide.

[00:16:27] So that's a pretty big one.

[00:16:28] It's not going to just be sitting in somebody's tool chest somewhere.

[00:16:31] It'll be leaned up against a wall.

[00:16:33] I'd just sneak out with one of those.

[00:16:36] I don't have to think about it.

[00:16:37] You don't want to know where Sparky's going to have to smuggle it in.

[00:16:43] I don't think that's how that works, but okay.

[00:16:48] So that leaves St. Bernard with the last vignette.

[00:16:53] Tell me what you would wish to accomplish with this

[00:16:56] if you're wanting to use it with your dependent there, Ethan.

[00:17:00] And I have a suggestion.

[00:17:02] Dependent, if you want me to play to handle the child again.

[00:17:07] I was thinking I'd do one with Arthur.

[00:17:10] Okay, never mind.

[00:17:11] Another dependent of mine.

[00:17:12] Okay.

[00:17:14] He's a former fenceman as well.

[00:17:16] We both served on the fence.

[00:17:19] But he's blind.

[00:17:20] He got blinded in an accident covering me.

[00:17:25] And mistimed a grenade or a mine or something.

[00:17:28] And he dove in to save me, but was blinded in the blast.

[00:17:33] Yeah, we can say it could have been shrapnel or something like that

[00:17:38] or a chemical or burned or whatever.

[00:17:40] But yeah, I'm blind.

[00:17:41] All of the above.

[00:17:42] He's extremely blind.

[00:17:45] Real fucked up.

[00:17:47] So what do you wish to accomplish with this scene?

[00:17:50] I'm thinking cope would probably be one.

[00:17:54] Because I got a little bit of attachment on here.

[00:17:58] And as someone who has already cracked, I'm going to nip that shit in the bud.

[00:18:04] Indeed.

[00:18:05] So what are you doing with Arthur?

[00:18:08] Like, what's the scene?

[00:18:09] Probably catching up with him.

[00:18:12] Maybe I haven't seen him in a while.

[00:18:14] I'm at the...

[00:18:15] What did we say the name of the bar was?

[00:18:17] The Fuel Depot.

[00:18:18] Fuel Depot.

[00:18:19] Yeah.

[00:18:20] Meet up with him down there.

[00:18:21] In the background of Sparky and Rothesalt.

[00:18:25] Okay.

[00:18:27] So, yeah.

[00:18:30] So he kind of...

[00:18:31] He hears you set his glass down on the table.

[00:18:34] Arthur does.

[00:18:35] And he's kind of reaching out in that general direction.

[00:18:38] He hasn't quite gotten used to losing his sight now.

[00:18:43] So you kind of see him to the left of it, to the right of it.

[00:18:46] And then, I guess as he's getting ready to reach on it, you kind of notice that he's going to tip the glass over.

[00:18:54] And I get...

[00:18:55] You know...

[00:18:55] Do you block it?

[00:18:56] Do you brace the cup?

[00:18:58] Or like...

[00:18:58] I'll like slide it back and slide it back into his hand for him.

[00:19:04] Oh, you son of this.

[00:19:05] You're just messing with me.

[00:19:06] You're just messing with old Arthur, aren't you?

[00:19:08] He slaps his knee.

[00:19:09] He knows where that is.

[00:19:11] You caught me again.

[00:19:13] I'm going to make you go blind.

[00:19:14] So...

[00:19:15] Hey, hey, it's no problem.

[00:19:16] I appreciate you.

[00:19:17] You're taking a lot on with me and the little girl and all that.

[00:19:20] How's she getting along?

[00:19:21] Oh, it's all right as, uh...

[00:19:23] Sunny Littleville can be raised in a prison, I suppose.

[00:19:26] Mmm.

[00:19:27] Well, you do what you can.

[00:19:29] I suppose he takes a drink.

[00:19:32] Grimaces.

[00:19:33] What the shit is this?

[00:19:34] Ethanol, mostly.

[00:19:36] Whew!

[00:19:38] Takes another drink.

[00:19:39] All of a sudden, there's a loud bang.

[00:19:43] St. Bernard, you quickly put your hand over your chest and look down, and you see blood coming out from under your hand.

[00:19:52] You push the chair back, and you stand up, getting ready to take cover.

[00:19:57] You push your chair back, getting ready to take cover, and you look down again, and your chest is fine.

[00:20:04] The vehicle outside that had the engine backfire, you hear just take off and move to the other side of the enclave.

[00:20:10] Give me a self-control check.

[00:20:12] Ah-ha-ha.

[00:20:14] Let's go to the market.

[00:20:15] Do they?

[00:20:17] Yeah.

[00:20:17] Take one, two.

[00:20:19] Trauma.

[00:20:20] Hey, hey, hey.

[00:20:21] Back with me.

[00:20:21] Back with me.

[00:20:22] Snipe his hands.

[00:20:24] So...

[00:20:25] You all right there?

[00:20:26] Just a calm backfire.

[00:20:27] I know...

[00:20:27] Yeah.

[00:20:28] Just a calm backfire, I suppose.

[00:20:31] Ah.

[00:20:31] Little habits die hard, I guess.

[00:20:34] You just have to die harder, as he stares at you with his sightless eyes.

[00:20:38] That's supposed to be funny.

[00:20:39] I was shot in the chest.

[00:20:40] His ribs are still bruised, you know.

[00:20:43] Who said that?

[00:20:44] Any cutscene.

[00:20:45] Ha-ha.

[00:20:47] Oh, lord.

[00:20:47] I was afraid how I was gonna go, ma'am.

[00:20:50] I can clear that row of detachment I've taken, right?

[00:20:54] Yes.

[00:20:55] A column, not row.

[00:20:56] I thought it was you could clear a row or a column.

[00:20:59] No, it's just column.

[00:21:00] But you have three dependents, so it's technically three columns.

[00:21:04] Oh.

[00:21:05] That's probably why you thought it was a row, because you cleared out everything last time.

[00:21:09] Maybe.

[00:21:10] I feel like I was looking in the...

[00:21:12] I saw something about using...

[00:21:13] But either way, that gets rid of two detachment.

[00:21:17] Probably the one trauma.

[00:21:18] A little PTSD involved in getting rid of that, but it's fine.

[00:21:23] Exactly.

[00:21:23] Spent some good time with your old friend, Arthur.

[00:21:26] Which brings us to the job.

[00:21:28] You know that...

[00:21:32] Ward...

[00:21:32] ...the son of a bitch whose car backfired.

[00:21:35] I'm sorry.

[00:21:38] This little man, why is it working?

[00:21:42] No blood, no foul.

[00:21:44] Meanwhile, haunted stare.

[00:21:46] Are you okay, St. Bernard?

[00:21:49] So, you know that Ward is offering a job to you guys with no competition.

[00:21:55] It is a salvage job.

[00:21:57] But you don't know the current price, because prices change in between rounds.

[00:22:02] And you hear that there is another job available, but you don't know any information on that.

[00:22:09] Also, we did get a war favor for dealing with the Randians, correct?

[00:22:13] Yes.

[00:22:13] But that's just...

[00:22:15] That's just for a bigger picture thing.

[00:22:17] Okay.

[00:22:17] I'll let you know when that thing happens.

[00:22:20] Okay.

[00:22:21] It's more like an endgame kind of thing that you're building up for the end of the game.

[00:22:26] Gotcha.

[00:22:26] Gotcha.

[00:22:27] Well, you know, if a salvage job, if we could find just a couple more rifles, I think we

[00:22:32] could probably make our way back into the loss if we wanted to.

[00:22:36] Yeah.

[00:22:37] I mean, that worked really well last time.

[00:22:39] Mm-hmm.

[00:22:40] That's really worth the weight and blood these days.

[00:22:44] So, I was thinking, do y'all want to go ahead and go with that salvage job, or do you want

[00:22:49] to see what else is up?

[00:22:50] Do we want to put all of our ducks in one row, or are we going to diversify?

[00:22:55] Yeah.

[00:22:56] Maybe we should see, because I mean, we should probably see what the prices are.

[00:23:00] Like, see what our options are before we go too full into it.

[00:23:04] Okay.

[00:23:05] So, I don't have a lot of social skills or stuff like that.

[00:23:09] I mean, my checks can be sneak or whatnot, so if anybody has a good idea on how to find

[00:23:13] out the price first, and I could maybe try, you know, save that criminality check for another

[00:23:18] thing.

[00:23:19] Yeah.

[00:23:20] Oh, my gosh, I got specs.

[00:23:21] Sorry.

[00:23:22] There is a price of the word job you could find out, and then you need to find out first

[00:23:27] who's offering the other job, and then you can find out the information about it.

[00:23:31] All right.

[00:23:33] Anybody got a preference?

[00:23:34] I just wonder if I could use first aid again to get some juicy information from doing some

[00:23:41] rounds.

[00:23:42] Well, I mean, the fact that you don't have that, I mean, you could probably take your

[00:23:48] skills and maybe do a pre-scam thing of some sort.

[00:23:52] You know what I mean?

[00:23:53] Like, remember how you bought your competition off and things like that?

[00:23:55] If you don't have a social skill, then maybe we could save that for the tail end, and maybe

[00:23:59] you could do something to help the job itself.

[00:24:02] What?

[00:24:03] The, uh, that was a scam that he did.

[00:24:06] I mean, unless he wants to save up his action to get two scams, he could always do that.

[00:24:10] Yeah.

[00:24:11] Yeah, because all I got, right, like, socially is, like, network.

[00:24:14] I got one in networking and one in sensitivity.

[00:24:16] I was just thinking about it.

[00:24:17] Yeah.

[00:24:18] I get it.

[00:24:18] Networking is through the Ubix, or?

[00:24:20] Just in general, network through the Enclave to see what people have heard of for, like,

[00:24:26] what is this other job?

[00:24:28] All right.

[00:24:29] Or you can do networking with your Ubix specs to see what moth contacts have about the job

[00:24:35] board's offering.

[00:24:36] Yeah, I guess I'll, I'll, if people are okay with it, I'll, I'll, uh, do a network and just,

[00:24:41] like, ask around, see, like, what our, like, just try and get, see what our options are for,

[00:24:45] for jobs.

[00:24:46] Just to see if there's, like, another one out there.

[00:24:48] Okay.

[00:24:48] And possibly how much it's for.

[00:24:52] Roll networking.

[00:24:53] Okay.

[00:24:58] You hear talk about the Enclave that a local trader, T-R-A-D-E-R, um, Joe, named Levi,

[00:25:08] Oh, damn.

[00:25:11] is looking to hire people for a job.

[00:25:15] He trades frequently with the Enclave and has been doing so for a while, so you know he

[00:25:21] definitely has some money behind him.

[00:25:23] But that's all that you hear.

[00:25:24] I've heard that Levi's a good man.

[00:25:27] Oh, John reference.

[00:25:28] All right, I'm out of here.

[00:25:29] Keep going.

[00:25:31] Get out of here now.

[00:25:34] Who would like to go next for finding out information?

[00:25:36] So there's the price of the, the moth job, and you can find the price competition or type

[00:25:42] of job for the Levi job.

[00:25:45] What do y'all want?

[00:25:46] What are you thinking so far?

[00:25:47] Well, if we're throwing our lot in with the moths, it might make sense to do some more

[00:25:51] work for them.

[00:25:52] Yeah.

[00:25:53] Yeah.

[00:25:53] Hmm.

[00:25:54] I guess I can find out the price of the moth job.

[00:25:57] All right.

[00:25:57] What skill role are you using?

[00:25:59] Indeed.

[00:26:01] Indeed, indeed, indeed.

[00:26:02] Do I have networking?

[00:26:04] I have criminality, but I don't want to just be a one-trick pony.

[00:26:07] Just keep breaking and entering into their homes.

[00:26:10] Or hacking into their systems.

[00:26:12] Damn it, that just really looks like I'm not much better than you.

[00:26:16] That kind of criminality.

[00:26:19] Shit, dude, I feel horrible.

[00:26:20] That's the only thing I could do unless it's, uh, I don't even have networking.

[00:26:23] I mean, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

[00:26:25] Okay.

[00:26:26] Uh, yeah.

[00:26:26] I'm going to do some, I'm going to do some illicit shit.

[00:26:29] So.

[00:26:29] So that password that you stole last time, you're going to try and figure it out again.

[00:26:35] Yep.

[00:26:35] See if it still works.

[00:26:37] I'm going to try this.

[00:26:38] So we'll see.

[00:26:39] That's true criminality.

[00:26:41] 1010, critical success, natural.

[00:26:44] Okay.

[00:26:45] Uh, well, unfortunately, you know everything else about the job, but you find out without

[00:26:49] a doubt that the job is being offered for 10 bounty.

[00:26:53] My one moment.

[00:26:57] Okay.

[00:26:58] So 10 bounty for the moth job.

[00:27:00] That makes me really lazy among the moths for not changing their passwords.

[00:27:04] You know what it was is I got on the bulletin board and I sent, I sent the moth people like,

[00:27:10] Hey, what's your, what was your mother's maiden name?

[00:27:14] What was it?

[00:27:16] You remember her mention her cat and you guess that as her password and it works.

[00:27:22] Mr. Wiggles.

[00:27:24] So does St. Bernard or Road Salt want to find out any information about Levi's job?

[00:27:30] I guess I can figure out how much it's paying and then we can decide which of the two we want

[00:27:33] to go for.

[00:27:34] Sure.

[00:27:35] Networking, just, you know, talking with people down at the, uh, the fuel depot.

[00:27:38] Okay.

[00:27:39] Uh, but I do not succeed on that networking role.

[00:27:42] Do you want to tap a reference?

[00:27:43] Uh, sure.

[00:27:45] Who do you call upon?

[00:27:47] Uh, Strauss.

[00:27:48] Strauss.

[00:27:48] Okay.

[00:27:49] You talk to Strauss and he tells you that, uh, apparently he's seen a couple postings

[00:27:57] that Levi is offering 18 bounty for his job.

[00:28:00] Well, well.

[00:28:01] Thanks Strauss.

[00:28:02] Of course.

[00:28:03] Anything to help.

[00:28:04] Just remember if you treat me kindly, I treat you kindly.

[00:28:08] I won't lose your number.

[00:28:09] And I won't lose yours.

[00:28:11] All right.

[00:28:11] So team, uh, 10 versus 18.

[00:28:14] Don't know anything else about Levi's job.

[00:28:16] Wow.

[00:28:17] Big difference.

[00:28:18] Yeah.

[00:28:19] Uh, Balto whistled at that.

[00:28:21] Like, damn.

[00:28:23] Oh, I mean, we are trying to help the malls, but it's a lot of bounty.

[00:28:28] Yep.

[00:28:28] What are we thinking?

[00:28:29] Who wants to be the, uh, tiebreaker on this?

[00:28:31] I mean, personally, I mean, I got a high upkeep and stuff like that too.

[00:28:36] I think, I think the job, I think the, we need to find out what Levi's job is and let's

[00:28:41] make that be the deciding factor.

[00:28:43] We can find out what it is and maybe legs and all that if, and then jump blind into the

[00:28:49] moth thing and hopefully not get screwed.

[00:28:51] If it seems like Levi's thing is too much.

[00:28:54] Yeah.

[00:28:55] Uh, I'm with that.

[00:28:56] Okay.

[00:28:57] Who's, who's got it?

[00:28:58] So St. Bernard's last, uh, find out information.

[00:29:01] Uh, let's see.

[00:29:03] Good.

[00:29:04] You can do research, networking, intimidation.

[00:29:09] You can go down to the fuel depot and intimidate some guy to tell you information.

[00:29:13] Tell me your secrets.

[00:29:14] You know the bartenders here and all kinds of shit.

[00:29:17] Oh yeah.

[00:29:18] Yeah.

[00:29:18] I think I tapped him as a reference last time.

[00:29:21] You did?

[00:29:22] Maybe, uh.

[00:29:23] The honeymoon's over?

[00:29:24] Maybe try networking and.

[00:29:27] Sure.

[00:29:28] Uh, roll networking.

[00:29:30] Mm-hmm.

[00:29:31] The dice continue to hate me.

[00:29:33] I have under eight.

[00:29:35] Do you want to tap a reference?

[00:29:36] Or spend a will?

[00:29:38] Uh.

[00:29:40] Reference.

[00:29:41] Reference.

[00:29:42] I tap a reference.

[00:29:44] I don't, I don't think I want to blow a will.

[00:29:46] Just yet.

[00:29:47] Okay.

[00:29:48] So do you want to talk to the, the bartender again?

[00:29:51] Uh, yeah.

[00:29:52] Okay.

[00:29:53] You, you, you chat him up again.

[00:29:56] Promise to, to tip him for the info.

[00:29:58] And he lets you know that the job that Levi's looking to, you know, hire someone from is a, uh, extraction job.

[00:30:07] Needs to get somebody out of a dangerous situation.

[00:30:10] Very interesting.

[00:30:11] That one bounty.

[00:30:12] You could pay it now or pay it at the end of the job.

[00:30:15] Up to you.

[00:30:16] Pay it now.

[00:30:17] Okay.

[00:30:18] What would you guys like to go with?

[00:30:20] Oh.

[00:30:21] I'm a little gunshot at that 18 bounty job.

[00:30:25] Yeah.

[00:30:26] I, I do like, I, on the, on the one side, big, uh, big risk, high reward, right?

[00:30:31] Mm-hmm.

[00:30:32] Oh.

[00:30:32] So, however, both me and, and, uh, uh, and, uh, shake have very high upkeeps.

[00:30:40] Yeah.

[00:30:40] Or very high, uh, break evens.

[00:30:42] So.

[00:30:42] Right.

[00:30:43] Just big dog run, guys?

[00:30:46] Big damn heroes.

[00:30:48] Y'all want to, y'all, uh, Branny, what's, you've been kind of quiet.

[00:30:51] What do you think, man?

[00:30:52] What do you want to go for?

[00:30:53] Uh, I'm good for either one.

[00:30:55] Uh, one is more of a short-term gains kind of thing.

[00:30:59] One's more of a long-term gains kind of thing.

[00:31:01] The long-term being the moth job.

[00:31:03] Hmm.

[00:31:04] If we're kind of playing toward the war assets thing, though.

[00:31:07] Uh, I know, man.

[00:31:08] I feel like I may be making a bad mistake, but I'm kind of, my vote, my vote's for moths.

[00:31:12] You guys pick what you want, even though I'm not 100%.

[00:31:16] Yeah, against my better judgment, uh, looks at my wallet.

[00:31:23] I'll go with the moth's job.

[00:31:25] We just gotta make sure we get that, uh, some really good, uh, negotiations going in this one.

[00:31:31] Yeah.

[00:31:31] Yeah.

[00:31:32] No pressure there, Superdart.

[00:31:36] What about, um, what about you, Ethan?

[00:31:38] What's your take?

[00:31:40] Be alright with the moth's job.

[00:31:41] Makes sense.

[00:31:42] Okay.

[00:31:43] Just hoping the moths don't eat holes in the bottoms of our pockets, huh?

[00:31:46] Hmm.

[00:31:47] Okay.

[00:31:48] Give him a wheel.

[00:31:49] Give him a wheel.

[00:31:50] Oh, come on.

[00:31:53] Uh.

[00:31:55] You're gonna regret that.

[00:32:00] Don't come on down if it's offered.

[00:32:02] No, you can have a wheel.

[00:32:06] You created a monster.

[00:32:09] So, let's get this show on the road.

[00:32:11] What are we looking at?

[00:32:13] So you guys are going with the moth job.

[00:32:15] Interesting.

[00:32:16] I wonder if you guys didn't get a crit success on those rifles, if you would have gone for

[00:32:21] the 18 bounty job right away.

[00:32:23] I forgot about the case, but...

[00:32:25] Yeah.

[00:32:26] I mean, those rifles only allowed break even, honestly.

[00:32:31] So, oof.

[00:32:31] True.

[00:32:32] Yeah.

[00:32:33] I think some restructuring of equipment is probably in the future.

[00:32:37] No.

[00:32:40] You mean we need two shambulants?

[00:32:44] Guys, I can't afford to...

[00:32:45] I'm sorry.

[00:32:46] I can't afford to take the shambulants out today.

[00:32:48] We're gonna have to walk this one.

[00:32:50] I mean, if that's what you want to do, you can do it.

[00:32:53] But going forward...

[00:32:55] St. Bernard, you know, to call up Ward.

[00:32:58] So mark a charge off your Ubix.

[00:33:02] Oh, hey!

[00:33:03] Hey St. Bernard!

[00:33:05] Are you calling about that job I forwarded to you?

[00:33:09] As a matter of fact, I am.

[00:33:11] Oh, good, good.

[00:33:12] Glad you could finally come around to get to it.

[00:33:14] Uh, Lex told me he did such a great job on his job.

[00:33:18] And, uh, glad you could find some time to help me out with some issues.

[00:33:24] So, yeah, let's get on into it.

[00:33:26] Wait, where should we begin?

[00:33:29] Roll leadership.

[00:33:31] He's fucking dice.

[00:33:33] Oh, no!

[00:33:36] Did you fail?

[00:33:37] That's how you failed.

[00:33:38] That's a black six and a red ten.

[00:33:41] And did you want to use a will at all?

[00:33:43] Or did you want to save it?

[00:33:44] The difference is just...

[00:33:47] Do you know how many rounds there is or not?

[00:33:50] I'm gonna save it.

[00:33:52] Good call.

[00:33:53] For whenever I do this exact shit when we're actually negotiating.

[00:33:58] And he's like, oh, what if we just pay you half?

[00:34:00] Nice.

[00:34:01] Oh, god.

[00:34:02] Half?

[00:34:03] Sounds great!

[00:34:03] You don't even want to understand or something.

[00:34:05] Yeah.

[00:34:06] Go into this on five bounty?

[00:34:08] Jesus.

[00:34:09] Yep.

[00:34:09] So there are a number of rounds that you don't know about.

[00:34:13] That's greater than one.

[00:34:15] It could be one.

[00:34:16] It could be five.

[00:34:18] It is greater than or equal to one.

[00:34:21] Yes.

[00:34:22] But you would start at buyer's market.

[00:34:24] The client will start at red.

[00:34:26] I mean, expenses.

[00:34:28] Would you like to go first or second?

[00:34:30] I will go first.

[00:34:32] Remember that since my Crash Hero spot refresh,

[00:34:35] you can use that for an extra push on the first round before we have anything else.

[00:34:38] Let's do it.

[00:34:39] But at this point, I'm almost like used to bringing him up.

[00:34:43] So I like I like slide a business card over.

[00:34:46] It's just like wrote like our crew with road salt at the top.

[00:34:51] Allow me to introduce you to the crew.

[00:34:54] We'll skip the first one.

[00:34:56] I think he needs no introduction.

[00:34:58] Ah, yes.

[00:34:59] Road salt.

[00:35:00] I've heard a lot about him.

[00:35:01] Indeed you have.

[00:35:02] Many people have.

[00:35:03] Perhaps you can hear more when he comes by to help collect the payment once we finish the job.

[00:35:08] Roll that persuasion.

[00:35:10] All right.

[00:35:11] Fickle bitch.

[00:35:12] Don't screw me over again.

[00:35:14] God damn it.

[00:35:16] Spend a will.

[00:35:18] God.

[00:35:20] That's.

[00:35:21] Ah.

[00:35:21] That would have been a black five and a red eight with the plus three from my persuasion.

[00:35:27] So there's one down.

[00:35:29] Okay.

[00:35:30] So you succeed with the use of a will.

[00:35:32] She is just going to rattle off numbers and statistics about the budget she was given for the assault and the various distribution to optimize the usage.

[00:35:48] It's just all talking technical jargon.

[00:35:50] You sort of your eyes glazed over for a little bit.

[00:35:53] So she is just going to move up one and you are going to move up two.

[00:35:58] So you're at labor and she is at a hundred percent markup.

[00:36:03] And we have our first scam.

[00:36:05] Okay.

[00:36:06] So we need to find it like tougher.

[00:36:07] A weak spot.

[00:36:09] You could find any of her spots or you could mess with the price of the job.

[00:36:13] Keeping in mind that we don't know how many more rounds we have.

[00:36:16] So this could be the last, the first, last and only scam we get.

[00:36:20] Depending.

[00:36:21] Yeah.

[00:36:21] We go for a spot then, huh?

[00:36:23] That's assuming there's a round after this one.

[00:36:25] But I imagine he would have told us that this was already the last round.

[00:36:28] I would have just ended it right now if it was.

[00:36:30] That would have been interesting.

[00:36:32] I've done it before.

[00:36:34] So you want the job?

[00:36:35] Like, yeah, this is, this is us.

[00:36:37] Cool.

[00:36:38] Here you go.

[00:36:38] Back in time tomorrow.

[00:36:40] Yeah.

[00:36:41] So here's what I'm thinking.

[00:36:43] If this is the last round, we, well, nevermind.

[00:36:46] Nevermind.

[00:36:47] I was thinking something else.

[00:36:48] Go ahead.

[00:36:48] All options are worthwhile.

[00:36:50] Well.

[00:36:51] Do we want to mess with the price or get a spot?

[00:36:53] If we get a spot, we should get softer weak.

[00:36:54] Like, because those will be able to use on her next time without having to run a scam for them.

[00:36:59] You know, I got an idea.

[00:37:01] Can I use, I want to, I want to mess with the competition.

[00:37:05] I think that wouldn't be a bad.

[00:37:06] There is not.

[00:37:07] That's the benefit of going with her.

[00:37:09] Oh, that's right.

[00:37:10] Hmm.

[00:37:10] But we need to drive the price up.

[00:37:12] I don't know how to do that.

[00:37:13] I was going to use criminality.

[00:37:15] But, fuck.

[00:37:16] I guess whatever you want to do.

[00:37:17] Well, say, well, Road Salt was saying that you should probably find a spot in case this is the last round.

[00:37:23] Yeah.

[00:37:24] And this is the, and this is the, the, our, our correspondent who's not actually here or like there.

[00:37:30] Yeah, they're not actually physically in the, in the enclave.

[00:37:33] All right.

[00:37:34] Well.

[00:37:34] You've got to strike shake.

[00:37:35] Oh, yeah.

[00:37:36] Yeah, we both do.

[00:37:38] Use criminality to do some light hacking to see if you can figure out some information about her background.

[00:37:43] Okay.

[00:37:44] I'm going to, like, did she have.

[00:37:46] I have the Gibson.

[00:37:48] Inspired by what's happened to Parler this week.

[00:37:51] So let's go.

[00:37:53] Oh, nine over three.

[00:37:54] Got it.

[00:37:55] You go back again and she still hasn't changed the cat password.

[00:38:00] So.

[00:38:02] All too easy.

[00:38:03] She just added an extra one to the end.

[00:38:06] Reading through her emails, you find, what'd you want, her weak spot?

[00:38:10] Yeah.

[00:38:10] Soft spot.

[00:38:11] Weak spot.

[00:38:12] She has the moral high ground.

[00:38:14] She truly believes that she and the mob have the moral high ground.

[00:38:19] They're, they're the right party.

[00:38:21] They're the good party.

[00:38:22] Their cause is noble.

[00:38:24] That kind of thing.

[00:38:25] Sounds familiar.

[00:38:26] She truly believes that.

[00:38:27] Okay.

[00:38:28] I pass that along to our intrepid.

[00:38:32] If you, like, feed that, make her, like, agree with her.

[00:38:35] Confirm, have her, confirm her feelings of she, she is the, the right party.

[00:38:41] Uh, she will like that.

[00:38:43] Frame that like we just gave up an 18 poundy job to help your ass.

[00:38:47] Oh, that's a good one actually.

[00:38:49] Right?

[00:38:50] So would you like to go first, St. Bernard?

[00:38:52] Or would you like her to go first?

[00:38:55] I think I would like to go first again.

[00:38:58] What was the exact, uh, spot again?

[00:39:01] She truly believes that she has the moral high ground.

[00:39:04] Oh.

[00:39:05] She and the cause that the mauls are working for is the right cause.

[00:39:09] You know, the, the noble cause.

[00:39:11] Yeah, I hear you are, uh, one might call a true believer in your cause.

[00:39:17] I find that very admirable.

[00:39:19] We are ourselves quite dedicated to this cause.

[00:39:23] I'd like you to know that.

[00:39:24] We've done, uh, two, I would say, jobs for the moths.

[00:39:27] One perhaps a bit unofficial, but invaded the moths twice now, and, uh, matter of fact,

[00:39:33] we're given quite an opportunity, and we chose to stay loyal to you.

[00:39:37] I feel that loyalty will one day be rewarded, hopefully sooner rather than later.

[00:39:43] We're all persuaded.

[00:39:44] There we go.

[00:39:46] Nine over five.

[00:39:48] So she goes, you know what?

[00:39:50] I thank you for that.

[00:39:51] For truly believing in the cause going with us.

[00:39:54] And I definitely want to see you succeed.

[00:39:58] Not just for you, but also for the cause.

[00:40:01] Which is why I am going to give you Ubix specs to help you out.

[00:40:09] I heard that Balto didn't have any, and it was causing some problems.

[00:40:15] So here is a pair of Ubix specs so all of you can stay connected and be a well-cohesive unit and finish this job in one piece.

[00:40:23] Man.

[00:40:25] Son of a bitch!

[00:40:26] I thought Hammond was an asshole GM, but shit.

[00:40:32] And that's the end of negotiations.

[00:40:34] Well, fuck.

[00:40:36] Now I have something for my brother.

[00:40:42] I actually wrote down Ubix specs before today.

[00:40:46] Shit.

[00:40:46] It just worked out perfectly.

[00:40:49] I like how you just let me hang myself before recording.

[00:40:56] He didn't say nothing to nobody.

[00:40:59] Let it happen.

[00:41:01] The best thing about being gifted Ubix specs is that you now have an extra set of Ubix specs to upkeep.

[00:41:06] Yeah.

[00:41:07] Or sale.

[00:41:09] Yeah.

[00:41:11] Cool.

[00:41:12] We walk out of there like, hey, anybody need Ubix specs?

[00:41:14] Going cheap.

[00:41:16] So you can't enter the same spot.

[00:41:20] Two push versus two push because it was a gift spot.

[00:41:22] You can't fight against it.

[00:41:24] When you guys meet, you are at labor.

[00:41:26] She is at hazard pay.

[00:41:28] Roll that last leadership check to see where you end up.

[00:41:31] Okay.

[00:41:34] Mother bitch.

[00:41:36] Do you want to use a will?

[00:41:37] Yeah.

[00:41:38] That's another red.

[00:41:39] That's another red 10.

[00:41:42] Well, Ethan, I think we're going three for three.

[00:41:45] For gunshots.

[00:41:49] On the one hand, if I was rolling this for damage, I'd be like, you are my favorite D10.

[00:41:53] I'm never letting you out of my sight.

[00:41:57] So you go to hazard pay with the will flip.

[00:42:02] Your break point, I believe, is the same.

[00:42:06] So it should be 15.

[00:42:10] I might break even.

[00:42:12] Break point, not break even.

[00:42:13] Break point, yeah.

[00:42:14] Okay.

[00:42:14] Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:42:15] That one.

[00:42:16] That stayed the same.

[00:42:17] Then it's one bounty per taker per leg.

[00:42:22] There is one leg.

[00:42:25] Fuck.

[00:42:27] So that's four bounties.

[00:42:29] I'm sorry, guys, but I swear I'm not making this shit up.

[00:42:33] I mean, I made it up, but I made it up a while ago.

[00:42:37] Oh, God.

[00:42:39] Oh, God.

[00:42:39] Oh, God.

[00:42:39] And then there's the base pay of 10 bounty.

[00:42:42] So you guys are getting out of there with a hot, hot 29 bounty.

[00:42:48] But it's for a good cause.

[00:42:51] Yeah.

[00:42:51] Yeah.

[00:42:52] I forgot.

[00:42:52] I forgot it, guys.

[00:43:22] To get in there.

[00:43:23] We have been in negotiations with the mine foreman.

[00:43:27] But it appears that large portions of the mine have been purchased by the archivists, who, unlike the foreman, are not as willing to give up their tunnel space.

[00:43:38] But we need a little something to get an edge on them during negotiations.

[00:43:43] In the middle of Hutchinson, there is a space museum called the Cosmosphere.

[00:43:49] I don't know if you guys are familiar with it.

[00:43:51] But they have not been able to get there because they are afraid of the large amount of casualties in the area from the nearby evacuation checkpoint.

[00:44:03] So I have a list of artifacts, quote, unquote, that's what they call them.

[00:44:09] But artifacts for you guys to recover from the museum and retrieve for us.

[00:44:15] And we will then offer that to them as a bonus to entice them into allowing us to hide our attack force in your tunnels.

[00:44:24] Does that sound good with everybody?

[00:44:26] Any questions?

[00:44:27] Well, I guess possible.

[00:44:30] We may not have to use that much fuel.

[00:44:34] Since I don't know if we guys want to take the shambulance necessarily.

[00:44:38] No.

[00:44:38] How big are the things?

[00:44:40] Is there anything like a space capsule we have to bring back?

[00:44:44] A whole space suit?

[00:44:45] I have a list here for you guys to get.

[00:44:49] We did a rundown of what's in the museum.

[00:44:52] And we highlighted some stuff that they might be interested in.

[00:44:56] Okay.

[00:44:57] Any books that you find in the museum.

[00:45:00] Probably in the gift shop.

[00:45:02] Any books on space.

[00:45:04] Especially the more historical sighted ones.

[00:45:06] Obviously archivists are going to love that.

[00:45:08] Like Dune.

[00:45:09] A haul of that would be good.

[00:45:12] The various exhibits and stuff like that.

[00:45:15] This is why I gave you the Ubix specs also.

[00:45:18] In addition to Forbalto.

[00:45:20] Is if you could just like walk through the exhibits slowly.

[00:45:24] Just make sure you got like pictures.

[00:45:26] Recordings of all the signage.

[00:45:28] Just the actual information provided by the museum.

[00:45:31] Would be good.

[00:45:33] They actually.

[00:45:34] I don't know why.

[00:45:35] But they have a piece of the Berlin Wall.

[00:45:38] In the space museum.

[00:45:40] But the archivists love historical crap like that.

[00:45:43] If you could recover a chunk of that.

[00:45:45] That's probably like a haul.

[00:45:48] They have a couple of historical actual space suits in there.

[00:45:52] From.

[00:45:53] If I'm reading this right.

[00:45:54] A couple Apollo missions.

[00:45:56] As well as some early flights.

[00:45:58] X-15.

[00:45:59] Something like that.

[00:46:00] So.

[00:46:01] Four of those space suits.

[00:46:04] Would be good.

[00:46:05] That's about a haul.

[00:46:07] Apparently they had a.

[00:46:09] Theater in there.

[00:46:10] Which ran shows.

[00:46:11] If you could just recover at least two of the recordings.

[00:46:13] That they would show in the IMAX.

[00:46:14] And the other theater there.

[00:46:16] They'll probably like that.

[00:46:17] And.

[00:46:18] There's something called a lunosphere.

[00:46:20] Which is a sphere that they.

[00:46:22] Brought to the moon and back or something.

[00:46:24] I don't know.

[00:46:25] But that's about like a haul.

[00:46:28] I could send you a clip of this.

[00:46:29] If you want.

[00:46:30] You know.

[00:46:31] Encrypted email or something.

[00:46:32] That would be it.

[00:46:34] Well.

[00:46:35] Fly me to the moon.

[00:46:36] Is that all?

[00:46:37] Oh yeah.

[00:46:37] Yeah.

[00:46:37] That should be good.

[00:46:38] I mean.

[00:46:38] If you want to.

[00:46:39] If you find anything in there.

[00:46:40] That you would like personally.

[00:46:42] Feel free to take it.

[00:46:42] I don't.

[00:46:43] I don't give a crap.

[00:46:43] Well.

[00:46:44] Maybe they have some tablets.

[00:46:45] That are just lying around.

[00:46:47] Also.

[00:46:47] I like how Google Maps.

[00:46:49] Has this.

[00:46:49] Has the interior mapped out.

[00:46:50] Of this place.

[00:46:51] That is pretty cool.

[00:46:53] Yeah.

[00:46:53] It's an actual place.

[00:46:54] For the listeners.

[00:46:56] And they actually had the Berlin Wall.

[00:46:57] They actually have.

[00:46:58] A piece of the Berlin Wall.

[00:47:00] In there.

[00:47:00] For some reason.

[00:47:01] Brought to you.

[00:47:02] By the tourism board.

[00:47:03] Of Hutchinson.

[00:47:05] Got a blackbird in there.

[00:47:07] Yeah.

[00:47:07] They got some interesting stuff.

[00:47:08] In there.

[00:47:09] So if.

[00:47:09] So you're not being paid a lot.

[00:47:11] But there are some stuff.

[00:47:12] That you could recover.

[00:47:14] Also noticing.

[00:47:15] The surrounding area.

[00:47:17] Around this place.

[00:47:18] Is the.

[00:47:19] Community college.

[00:47:21] And.

[00:47:21] Yeah.

[00:47:21] That was the.

[00:47:21] The checkpoint.

[00:47:22] For.

[00:47:23] For the evacuation.

[00:47:24] Yeah.

[00:47:25] That means a lot of.

[00:47:27] Fuck.

[00:47:28] Oh boy.

[00:47:29] We're heroes guys.

[00:47:32] Yeah.

[00:47:32] I am so sorry.

[00:47:33] I said.

[00:47:34] Moth job.

[00:47:35] I mean.

[00:47:35] I blame me.

[00:47:37] I'm not.

[00:47:37] This is going to be great.

[00:47:40] No.

[00:47:40] I'll play it.

[00:47:40] I'll just.

[00:47:41] I'll just do the.

[00:47:41] The good stuff.

[00:47:42] Just quote.

[00:47:43] Okay.

[00:47:44] Hmm.

[00:47:44] Research.

[00:47:45] Can we make a research row.

[00:47:47] To see if there's anything else in there.

[00:47:49] That we could pick up.

[00:47:51] To sell to other parties.

[00:47:53] Or is it.

[00:47:53] I mean.

[00:47:53] That may be kind of.

[00:47:55] Cheating.

[00:47:56] Scenario.

[00:47:56] You could do that.

[00:47:57] Yes.

[00:47:57] If you want.

[00:47:58] Like.

[00:47:58] To get a map.

[00:47:59] I would say that's part of like.

[00:48:00] Get a map.

[00:48:01] Slash exhibit layout.

[00:48:02] Maybe you won't get a hundred percent.

[00:48:04] Of what's in the exhibits.

[00:48:05] But you can get like.

[00:48:06] The main exhibits.

[00:48:07] Okay.

[00:48:08] Anybody got research.

[00:48:09] I mean.

[00:48:09] I have great ideas.

[00:48:10] For sure I have research.

[00:48:11] It may take me a few minutes.

[00:48:13] To.

[00:48:13] Oh you're fine.

[00:48:14] Tell you some stuff.

[00:48:16] Because I'm trying to locate.

[00:48:17] My documents.

[00:48:18] That I use for this.

[00:48:19] Do you guys.

[00:48:19] Want me to do the research role?

[00:48:20] I don't have research.

[00:48:21] I got a ten over one on that.

[00:48:23] Okay.

[00:48:23] Cool.

[00:48:24] So.

[00:48:24] So go with at least one success.

[00:48:27] Like they asked you for.

[00:48:28] A couple of like.

[00:48:29] Apollo spacesuits.

[00:48:31] And some stuff like that.

[00:48:32] There are.

[00:48:33] There are actual pieces.

[00:48:35] Of.

[00:48:35] Equipment.

[00:48:36] That were up in space.

[00:48:38] Like.

[00:48:38] These are some actual.

[00:48:40] Pieces of rockets.

[00:48:42] And control panels.

[00:48:43] And stuff like that.

[00:48:44] You know what they need to work on.

[00:48:46] Large industrial equipment.

[00:48:47] Large industrial spanners.

[00:48:50] Exactly.

[00:48:51] Plus.

[00:48:51] You know that there is.

[00:48:53] The spacers in the area.

[00:48:55] In the enclave down south.

[00:48:57] Platform.

[00:48:58] They would love anything.

[00:49:00] Having to do with space.

[00:49:01] That they could use.

[00:49:01] In their efforts to.

[00:49:03] Leave the planet.

[00:49:04] Hmm.

[00:49:05] Oh those guys.

[00:49:06] Right.

[00:49:07] They're in the wrong state.

[00:49:08] They need to be in Ohio.

[00:49:09] Apparently that's a great motivator.

[00:49:12] That's where they all.

[00:49:12] Yeah.

[00:49:13] That's where they all come from.

[00:49:15] So.

[00:49:15] Right offhand.

[00:49:16] I think we need to take the shamblance.

[00:49:18] Because we're going in here.

[00:49:19] And stripping the copper out of the walls.

[00:49:21] Yeah.

[00:49:22] I was thinking of that too.

[00:49:23] Yeah.

[00:49:23] Like right after I said.

[00:49:24] Maybe not.

[00:49:25] But.

[00:49:25] Yeah.

[00:49:26] Just remember that.

[00:49:27] Your haul rating.

[00:49:29] For.

[00:49:29] Your vehicle.

[00:49:30] It gets decreased for every occupant.

[00:49:32] In the vehicle.

[00:49:33] Yeah.

[00:49:33] So if you want to maximize.

[00:49:35] You would have one person drive.

[00:49:36] And then.

[00:49:37] Everyone else would walk.

[00:49:39] I can.

[00:49:39] I would.

[00:49:40] In that ration.

[00:49:41] But that would be on the way back anyway.

[00:49:43] So my haul rating right now is nine.

[00:49:45] For the shamblance.

[00:49:46] So.

[00:49:47] Minus.

[00:49:47] And then.

[00:49:48] We carry something back.

[00:49:50] Each one of us.

[00:49:51] I can actually take.

[00:49:52] I guess two haul.

[00:49:53] But then again.

[00:49:54] I feel like I need to refresh.

[00:49:55] Because we're going to be sitting here.

[00:49:57] Shooting a bunch of fucking things.

[00:49:58] Yeah.

[00:49:59] This is.

[00:50:00] Yeah.

[00:50:00] I'm.

[00:50:01] I'm looking forward to it as a player.

[00:50:03] I'm dreading it as a.

[00:50:04] As a character.

[00:50:05] Good.

[00:50:07] Once I get.

[00:50:07] A map.

[00:50:08] I will post it in there.

[00:50:10] Unless you guys have seen it already.

[00:50:11] I would.

[00:50:12] I'm staring at it.

[00:50:13] At the Google Maps.

[00:50:15] That's good.

[00:50:15] Yeah.

[00:50:16] I mean.

[00:50:16] We can abstract stuff too.

[00:50:17] When we get there.

[00:50:18] It's totally fine.

[00:50:18] Here we go.

[00:50:19] Yeah.

[00:50:20] Also.

[00:50:21] I like to use the maps.

[00:50:22] As the general layout.

[00:50:23] I'm not going to specifically.

[00:50:25] Name every single window.

[00:50:27] And point of egress.

[00:50:29] Yes.

[00:50:30] How dare you.

[00:50:31] No.

[00:50:31] I'm kidding.

[00:50:33] Can I.

[00:50:34] Do a research on.

[00:50:36] Recent weather patterns.

[00:50:38] In the area.

[00:50:38] And what might be the safest.

[00:50:40] Side to approach from.

[00:50:41] Sure.

[00:50:42] Considering the.

[00:50:44] Evacuation point there.

[00:50:45] In addition to that.

[00:50:46] I will name one thing.

[00:50:48] That catches your eye.

[00:50:50] Road salt.

[00:50:50] Especially.

[00:50:51] Since you are looking towards.

[00:50:54] Artifacts.

[00:50:55] And stuff that you can recover.

[00:50:56] They actually have.

[00:50:58] A v2 rocket.

[00:50:59] In the museum.

[00:51:01] Rocket.

[00:51:02] I love that.

[00:51:03] That.

[00:51:04] If you spent some bounty.

[00:51:05] You could.

[00:51:06] Put in some of the.

[00:51:07] Missing components.

[00:51:09] Like they have.

[00:51:10] Most of the components.

[00:51:11] In there.

[00:51:11] From what you can see.

[00:51:12] In the gallery photos.

[00:51:13] Obviously just no explosive.

[00:51:14] And some of the other parts.

[00:51:15] That actually made it work.

[00:51:17] If you wanted to.

[00:51:18] You could potentially.

[00:51:19] Get a v2 rocket.

[00:51:21] What's the haul on that?

[00:51:22] I would say that is.

[00:51:25] Give me a second.

[00:51:26] I will let you know that.

[00:51:28] In a second.

[00:51:29] What was your other question.

[00:51:30] Quiet at home.

[00:51:32] Well.

[00:51:32] One thing.

[00:51:33] One thing I want to say.

[00:51:34] Before that.

[00:51:35] Gonna need fuel for that rocket.

[00:51:36] Balto.

[00:51:37] Coming right out of the.

[00:51:37] Shambulance.

[00:51:41] His face just droops.

[00:51:43] Yep.

[00:51:44] No.

[00:51:45] Just the.

[00:51:46] The safest.

[00:51:47] Way to approach.

[00:51:48] Considering.

[00:51:49] The.

[00:51:49] The weather patterns.

[00:51:51] Of casualties.

[00:51:52] And the evacuation point nearby.

[00:51:54] Sure.

[00:51:54] That's an eight over six.

[00:51:56] It looks like they have.

[00:51:58] Generally.

[00:52:00] Dispersed.

[00:52:01] A bit more.

[00:52:02] Like it's not completely.

[00:52:03] Concentrated.

[00:52:05] But there was fencing.

[00:52:07] Around the college.

[00:52:08] So.

[00:52:09] They have stayed in the area.

[00:52:11] There haven't been any.

[00:52:13] Large groupings.

[00:52:14] Spotted.

[00:52:15] Spotted.

[00:52:16] South.

[00:52:16] Towards Hutchinson.

[00:52:17] But definitely.

[00:52:19] The.

[00:52:19] College.

[00:52:20] Grounds.

[00:52:21] Would be full.

[00:52:22] There's no.

[00:52:23] Reports.

[00:52:23] Of large groups.

[00:52:24] Roaming.

[00:52:25] But.

[00:52:26] If you go on.

[00:52:27] To the college property.

[00:52:28] Probably.

[00:52:28] You're going to encounter.

[00:52:29] Large groups of casualties.

[00:52:31] Feel like.

[00:52:31] We probably want to go.

[00:52:32] Come in from the south.

[00:52:34] End of the.

[00:52:35] Of this block of death.

[00:52:37] Is what I'm seeing.

[00:52:39] So that we don't go.

[00:52:40] So we don't.

[00:52:41] Tramps.

[00:52:41] We.

[00:52:41] We.

[00:52:42] Tramps as lightly as we can.

[00:52:43] Onto the college grounds.

[00:52:45] Yeah.

[00:52:45] We're just going to strap that rocket.

[00:52:47] To the.

[00:52:47] The top of the shambulance.

[00:52:48] It's going to look really funny.

[00:52:49] Coming back to.

[00:52:51] They also have a V1 rocket in there too.

[00:52:53] If you want a V1 rocket.

[00:52:54] All the Vs.

[00:52:56] Yeah.

[00:52:57] So I.

[00:52:57] If you wanted to.

[00:52:58] Out of character.

[00:53:00] Like I said.

[00:53:01] In the document.

[00:53:02] If you find stuff.

[00:53:03] That could be useful.

[00:53:04] That you could develop.

[00:53:05] Into war assets.

[00:53:06] And stuff you can.

[00:53:07] This is what I was talking about.

[00:53:09] If you wanted to develop.

[00:53:10] The two rockets.

[00:53:11] Into war assets.

[00:53:13] You could have a war asset.

[00:53:14] Of V2.

[00:53:16] And V1.

[00:53:16] V.

[00:53:16] V rocket.

[00:53:18] That would be badass.

[00:53:19] It's like.

[00:53:19] Take this.

[00:53:20] D.

[00:53:20] D.

[00:53:20] D.

[00:53:21] Q.

[00:53:21] S.

[00:53:22] You thought we were a bunch of.

[00:53:23] Fucking cavemen.

[00:53:23] Rocket time.

[00:53:25] So does anyone want to do.

[00:53:27] Any other research or anything.

[00:53:28] Before you head out.

[00:53:29] On your one leg.

[00:53:31] Rub it in.

[00:53:31] Don't you?

[00:53:33] Yeah.

[00:53:34] It sounded like it.

[00:53:34] To me too.

[00:53:36] Well.

[00:53:36] I'm trying to figure out.

[00:53:38] All right.

[00:53:39] So we know.

[00:53:40] We know what's in there.

[00:53:42] We know what's around there.

[00:53:44] I have no idea.

[00:53:45] Sorry.

[00:53:46] Go ahead.

[00:53:47] I was just.

[00:53:47] I was responding to Brownie for a second.

[00:53:49] I was like.

[00:53:49] That sounds like a parable idea.

[00:53:50] Blaring anything on that.

[00:53:52] On the shambles.

[00:53:53] I had that deactivated.

[00:53:54] A long time ago.

[00:53:55] We're talking about.

[00:53:58] Elton John songs.

[00:53:59] Yeah.

[00:54:00] Rocket man.

[00:54:01] Oh god.

[00:54:02] Road salt lets you know that.

[00:54:04] Oh you were sleeping.

[00:54:05] I reinstalled the horn.

[00:54:06] And he hits it.

[00:54:07] And it's like.

[00:54:07] Do do do do do do do do do do do.

[00:54:10] No.

[00:54:12] A dodge charger flies by in the background.

[00:54:15] Cut to.

[00:54:16] The gates of our.

[00:54:18] Of hatch.

[00:54:19] As the guards are just watching us.

[00:54:21] Coming in as a.

[00:54:23] Thrall.

[00:54:23] Like an.

[00:54:23] Oh.

[00:54:23] We're just.

[00:54:24] We're just dragging.

[00:54:25] A horde of zombies.

[00:54:28] Well if you guys don't have anything else.

[00:54:30] You would like to do to prepare.

[00:54:31] I guess we could head off on.

[00:54:33] The first leg.

[00:54:35] Who would like to be in the passenger seat.

[00:54:37] As your spotter.

[00:54:38] Let's give that to.

[00:54:39] Bernie again.

[00:54:42] It's got the most padding.

[00:54:44] So I can hold these bruised ribs.

[00:54:46] Nice and easily.

[00:54:47] I come to you again.

[00:54:49] Don't worry.

[00:54:49] I had the.

[00:54:50] I had some of the.

[00:54:50] The windows.

[00:54:51] Have been.

[00:54:52] Have been.

[00:54:53] Replaced.

[00:54:53] Or repaired.

[00:54:54] See some like.

[00:54:55] Tape over the cracks.

[00:54:57] And then whole.

[00:54:58] Bullet holes.

[00:54:59] Uh.

[00:54:59] Clear packing tape.

[00:55:00] Yeah.

[00:55:01] Sorry what was that?

[00:55:03] Saber dart.

[00:55:04] Ah.

[00:55:04] Good as new.

[00:55:05] Yep.

[00:55:06] And I just decided to paint the seats red.

[00:55:09] It just makes it look better.

[00:55:11] Bring me my red pants.

[00:55:13] It makes the seats go faster.

[00:55:15] What?

[00:55:16] There's bullet holes in the hood.

[00:55:17] No.

[00:55:18] There's feet holes.

[00:55:20] It's like golf balls.

[00:55:22] It's dimpled for faster action.

[00:55:23] Yeah.

[00:55:24] They're decals.

[00:55:26] All right.

[00:55:26] So.

[00:55:27] Uh.

[00:55:27] Mark off a charge of fuel.

[00:55:29] On the shambulance.

[00:55:30] And.

[00:55:31] St. Bernard.

[00:55:31] Please give me an awareness check.

[00:55:34] Uh.

[00:55:34] Ha.

[00:55:35] Not today.

[00:55:36] Drinky red bitch.

[00:55:39] Nine red.

[00:55:40] Eight black.

[00:55:41] But I have a plus two.

[00:55:43] Ooh.

[00:55:44] Well secretly there was a vector in the back seat.

[00:55:46] That had a murder modifier of nine.

[00:55:50] Just bites his head off.

[00:55:51] Ha.

[00:55:52] Suddenly half of the shambulance is filled with water.

[00:55:55] You can't see into the water.

[00:55:57] So you're driving.

[00:55:59] Yes.

[00:56:00] You're driving through a neighborhood.

[00:56:02] You're sort of skirting around.

[00:56:05] The college side.

[00:56:07] Of eastern Hutchinson.

[00:56:08] And you're entering an area which appears to have been bombed a bit by the military during the crash.

[00:56:16] And you spot what looks like a armored vehicle sticking out very very slightly.

[00:56:23] You almost missed it.

[00:56:24] Sticking out of some of the rubble.

[00:56:26] Like damaged rubble kind of thing?

[00:56:28] Or like in position or something like that?

[00:56:30] Like it.

[00:56:31] No no.

[00:56:31] Like it's under rubble.

[00:56:32] Oh okay.

[00:56:33] It must have been driving or parked there or something when the bombing happened and the building part like collapsed on it.

[00:56:40] And a little bit of it sticking out.

[00:56:42] And it's the type of armored vehicle I mean that's um.

[00:56:45] Like would transport cash or valuables and stuff like that.

[00:56:50] Not like a armored military vehicle.

[00:56:52] It's a shambulance mark two.

[00:56:54] Don't listen to them honey.

[00:56:59] However.

[00:57:01] Put it on the other hand.

[00:57:05] That armor upgrade is looking rather fun.

[00:57:09] Do y'all want to go check that out?

[00:57:11] I mean what am I saying as I think about our bounty?

[00:57:13] We're checking.

[00:57:14] I'm already parking buddy.

[00:57:17] Okay.

[00:57:17] Do you turn the vehicle off or keep it running?

[00:57:19] I keep it running.

[00:57:20] Okay.

[00:57:22] Question.

[00:57:22] You said parking this time instead of stopping the vehicle which is why I asked for clarification.

[00:57:28] We're in Hutchinson.

[00:57:29] I'm keeping it in ready to go for when the inevitable horde shows up.

[00:57:33] Who wants to poke the hornet's nest?

[00:57:36] I can poke it with my crowbar.

[00:57:38] Tap tap.

[00:57:39] Tap tap.

[00:57:40] Gonna have to remove rubble?

[00:57:42] Yes.

[00:57:43] You only see like the top corner of the back of the vehicle sticking out from under the rubble.

[00:57:48] You're gonna have to clear some rubble out of the way.

[00:57:50] Is that an athletics check or is that a resistance?

[00:57:53] Probably resistance.

[00:57:54] That would be resistance, yes.

[00:57:56] Not my strong suit.

[00:57:57] I've got one in it if anybody's got better than that.

[00:58:00] I have one in it but will my plus two to tool skill checks count on a big crowbar for clearing rubble?

[00:58:07] Since it is a crowbar I would say that is applicable.

[00:58:09] All right, my goal is to clear rubble around the back doors maybe and maybe the fuel hatch.

[00:58:17] That would be a 13 over 8 with the modifications.

[00:58:22] And I'll mark off a charge on my rations.

[00:58:24] Was anyone helping Road Salt at all?

[00:58:27] I would assume.

[00:58:29] Yeah, I'm also helping probably just trying because we need to get to that the door but also the gas tank.

[00:58:35] So St. Bernard, you are keeping watch it sounds like?

[00:58:39] I would keep watch.

[00:58:40] I have a resistance of 0.

[00:58:44] Give me an awareness check, St. Bernard.

[00:58:46] I have an awareness of 2.

[00:58:49] Aha!

[00:58:50] 11 over 2.

[00:58:52] Good.

[00:58:52] So they're clearing rubble and like I said a building partially collapsed on it.

[00:58:58] So as they're clearing rubble sometimes more scoots like shifts down from above and they clear out more.

[00:59:04] And after dislodging a large chunk out of the way a decent amount runs down from what would have been the second level.

[00:59:12] And you see a part of a casualty sticking out of the rubble now and it starts picking itself up.

[00:59:19] He has risen.

[00:59:20] You point that out to us there, Bernie?

[00:59:22] You can probably handle it.

[00:59:24] No, yeah, I'll point it out.

[00:59:26] Got her a lot.

[00:59:27] I almost said we've got a live one.

[00:59:30] Ha ha.

[00:59:32] Casualty.

[00:59:33] Well, you know, it was a Road Salt.

[00:59:39] You all get an action and then it will be within range to attack.

[00:59:43] I'm already digging with my big tool and I already have it in my hands.

[00:59:48] Can I just do a melee on it?

[00:59:50] Sure.

[00:59:52] That is a 9 over 6.

[00:59:54] You bring it down on the casualty.

[00:59:57] There's a squishing sound as the head is caved in.

[01:00:02] And after some more working, you uncover the back of the vehicle like you said you wanted.

[01:00:07] It is an armored vehicle and locked, obviously.

[01:00:11] Digging.

[01:00:12] Smash.

[01:00:13] Digging.

[01:00:14] Digging.

[01:00:15] Criminality to jerry-rig their lock or picket.

[01:00:19] Criminality to break in?

[01:00:21] Yeah.

[01:00:21] I would allow that.

[01:00:22] Okay.

[01:00:23] Could I use driving to try and see about the gas siphoning?

[01:00:27] Or more mechanics?

[01:00:29] That would be a scavenger roll.

[01:00:30] A scavenger?

[01:00:31] Okay.

[01:00:31] That's fine.

[01:00:32] Okay.

[01:00:32] I get it.

[01:00:33] No.

[01:00:34] No, that's 2 over 10.

[01:00:36] Or no, 4 over 10.

[01:00:37] Excuse me.

[01:00:38] So it's too much for me.

[01:00:40] I can't get the back open.

[01:00:42] No, you can't pick it.

[01:00:43] I can pop it with my crowbar, maybe.

[01:00:46] All right.

[01:00:47] So I'm totally fine with that.

[01:00:49] But I'm almost also willing to say that we need to set up a distraction somewhere else

[01:00:55] because that's going to be loud, probably.

[01:00:57] That sounds like it.

[01:00:58] Or I don't know.

[01:01:00] We just smash and grab, I guess, too.

[01:01:02] You're all right, Kyle.

[01:01:03] Well, you hear some cursing from the side of the car as Balto does not find any gas,

[01:01:09] I guess, because he got a 5 under 6.

[01:01:11] Just try and stab some gas.

[01:01:12] Yeah, it must have evaporated or they ran dry, which is why it was left here.

[01:01:17] Or something.

[01:01:18] There's no gas inside.

[01:01:20] How about...

[01:01:21] Well, we've got the car started, so if we need to get out here in a hurry, we can just hop

[01:01:26] back into the car.

[01:01:27] You know, narratively speaking, if a scavenged check on that zombie, or casually, if it was

[01:01:32] a critical success, it could have been a driver and he has the keys in his pocket.

[01:01:36] If only we were in some kind of a game.

[01:01:38] I don't know.

[01:01:41] I haven't scavenged yet.

[01:01:42] Would you like me to try to scavenge the casualty that we killed?

[01:01:45] I mean, we need all the money we can get anyway, if that's the only thing we get out of this.

[01:01:49] Sure, let me roll it.

[01:01:52] That's 11 over 5.

[01:01:54] You find a bounty.

[01:01:55] That's it.

[01:01:56] Okay.

[01:01:56] I'm willing to spend.

[01:01:58] If we can tap a reference to figure out how to use a...

[01:02:02] do a mechanics check or something like that to get, like, the door hinges off or something

[01:02:05] like that.

[01:02:06] The back...

[01:02:06] I can do that.

[01:02:08] I've got mechanics.

[01:02:10] Yeah, we still haven't tried your route.

[01:02:11] So yeah, go for it.

[01:02:13] Roll mechanics to try and force it off or take it off or something like that.

[01:02:18] Picking just the right spot to flex the doors and pop where the lock is attached to the

[01:02:23] doors.

[01:02:25] That's a 5 over 2.

[01:02:26] Add all my bonuses and that's a 10 over 2.

[01:02:29] So as he's wrenching it open and getting it ready, I will allow...

[01:02:35] It sounded like Shake and Balto were up close with Road Salt there with St. Bernard standing

[01:02:40] a bit back.

[01:02:41] I will allow Shake and Balto to give me an awareness check.

[01:02:45] That is a 5 over 1.

[01:02:47] That is a 4 over 7.

[01:02:49] Okay.

[01:02:50] So as Road Salt is popping it open, you hear what sounds like, since now it's like pried

[01:02:57] open a bit, noise of clanging or something moving inside the vehicle just as Road Salt

[01:03:05] pops it open.

[01:03:07] Oh, guns up!

[01:03:09] So Road Salt pops it open and there's a casualty in the security guard uniform coming out back.

[01:03:16] I will allow both of you to take shots if that is what you wish to do.

[01:03:21] Yeah.

[01:03:22] I'm not going to force your characters to shoot it if you don't want to.

[01:03:24] Give it a fighting chance.

[01:03:26] And I missed.

[01:03:28] Well, you missed.

[01:03:30] I fired a warning shot across its nose.

[01:03:33] It's a 4 under 1, or 4 under 5, sorry.

[01:03:37] I was going to say.

[01:03:39] A shot of 40.

[01:03:41] Wait, what?

[01:03:42] Shake, what did you want to do?

[01:03:43] I think I'll take the shot as well.

[01:03:45] Hellbar.

[01:03:46] I guess.

[01:03:47] I just hope I don't critically fail.

[01:03:49] I have to burn a wheel.

[01:03:50] No, if I burn it, it would be nothing.

[01:03:52] I see that you're on that critical chart, Ian.

[01:03:55] Or sorry, Nick.

[01:03:57] Wow.

[01:03:57] Sorry.

[01:03:57] Yeah, I did.

[01:03:58] How dare you?

[01:03:59] It's a curse.

[01:04:03] Anyway, I did roll a 5 over 3, so I did tag it.

[01:04:07] Oh, you didn't critically fail.

[01:04:08] You sound disappointed.

[01:04:10] Well, it was funny, because I was actually looking at the table that Crazon was talking

[01:04:14] about when he said that.

[01:04:16] Yeah, I guess we talked about it earlier.

[01:04:19] Yeah, you put the casualty down.

[01:04:22] And it just, it goes charging out of the back door, and with a burst of gunfire, it just

[01:04:27] flops down, face down onto the pavement.

[01:04:30] Whew.

[01:04:31] You know what the problem is with trying to arrest casualties?

[01:04:34] Oh, no.

[01:04:35] You can never take them alive.

[01:04:38] At the same time, St. Bernard, you notice 9 casualties?

[01:04:42] 5 shambles away coming down the road?

[01:04:44] Gentlemen, we've got company.

[01:04:47] A quick scavenge, maybe?

[01:04:50] Yeah.

[01:04:51] Would you allow me to scavenge again real quick before they get here?

[01:04:54] Sure.

[01:04:55] You may allow me to start shooting them?

[01:04:57] Sure.

[01:04:58] That would have been a 7 under 8, but with my 3 scavenge, it's a 10 over 8.

[01:05:02] You find a haul worth of valuables.

[01:05:08] Money, other stuff similar to that.

[01:05:12] Some precious stones.

[01:05:14] Just a haul worth of valuables, we'll say, to keep it simple.

[01:05:19] I'm going to activate my Ubix Specs app, what for shooting casualties.

[01:05:27] So, considering the bonus I get for shooting casualties, this would put me at a plus 5.

[01:05:34] Oh, how's a 15 over 1 sound?

[01:05:37] You shoot one casualty.

[01:05:39] That's what it sounds like.

[01:05:41] There are now 8?

[01:05:42] But I shoot them, like, really well.

[01:05:43] Right between the eyes.

[01:05:44] Like, I turn around and put the gun over my head and, like, bam, right in the face.

[01:05:50] 8 casualties, 5 shambles away.

[01:05:53] Balto or Shake, did you want to do anything for this round?

[01:05:58] If we're, you know, I hate wasting ammo, but then again, that's more bounty possibly too.

[01:06:04] So, I think I'm going to take a, I'm going to shoot.

[01:06:07] I'm going to go ahead and burn a Ubix charge for Deadeye.

[01:06:10] That moves me at plus 2, so I have a plus 4.

[01:06:13] I'm glad I did that.

[01:06:14] So, the first is 10 over 9.

[01:06:16] So, I take out a casualty.

[01:06:19] I'm going to go ahead and burn my Twitch, since they are several shambles away, correct?

[01:06:24] They're 5 away.

[01:06:25] Okay.

[01:06:26] So, I went ahead and I'm going to burn my Twitch, and that's another one that's 10 over 8.

[01:06:31] So, 2 down.

[01:06:32] So, there are now 6, 5 shambles away.

[01:06:35] And Balto?

[01:06:36] Yeah, Balto's going to, like, start heading toward the car, but also, like, aim and fire.

[01:06:41] Okay.

[01:06:42] Because, yeah, if we can whittle these guys down before we have to flee, that's more bounty.

[01:06:49] That is 11 over 1.

[01:06:51] 5 casualties, 5 shambles away.

[01:06:54] Burn a Twitch, since you don't have to do defense this round.

[01:06:57] Yeah.

[01:06:57] Yeah, I'm going to do that, I guess it will.

[01:06:59] So, I can just roll again to try and shoot?

[01:07:01] Yeah.

[01:07:02] Usually it's to the end of the turn order, but casualties are always the last thing to go on a turn order.

[01:07:06] That is a critical 6.

[01:07:08] Ooh.

[01:07:08] Or a critical success.

[01:07:10] So, success.

[01:07:11] Uh, so you take down 2 casualties for a total of 3 out of 5.

[01:07:16] Which I should correct to say 3 out of 4, as 9 more casualties show up 7 shambles away.

[01:07:24] Is that because of the wrenching, or because of gunfire?

[01:07:26] Because, I mean, I've got a silence.

[01:07:27] Uh, it is because you are close to a hot zone where there's a lot of casualties.

[01:07:32] Okay.

[01:07:32] I am just, I'm rolling an extra die.

[01:07:36] So it's like, one die on one turn, one die on another turn.

[01:07:39] And that's, that's all I'm going to share with you.

[01:07:42] Gotcha.

[01:07:42] It was the tough spot, basically.

[01:07:44] Yeah.

[01:07:45] So there are 3 casualties, 4 shambles away, 9 casualties, 7 shambles away.

[01:07:49] Uh, what would you guys like to do now?

[01:07:51] Uh, Road Salt's got the, the bags of money under his arms.

[01:07:54] Gentlemen, I think we need to just go ahead and finish these up, scavenge, and then get

[01:07:58] out of here before the rest of them get here.

[01:08:00] Sounds like a plan.

[01:08:02] Sounds like a good time to exit stage left.

[01:08:05] Alright, let's mop these ones up.

[01:08:07] So are you leaving, or are you mopping these?

[01:08:09] Mopping.

[01:08:10] Yeah, mopping.

[01:08:11] The, the closer set, right?

[01:08:12] So whoever would like to go first can, can do so.

[01:08:15] Uh, yeah, I'll go, go before me.

[01:08:18] 8 over 5 on silence, handgun.

[01:08:21] 2 left.

[01:08:22] Okay, that is a, uh, 11 over 10.

[01:08:26] Okay.

[01:08:26] 1 left.

[01:08:27] 5 under 7.

[01:08:29] Still 1 left.

[01:08:30] Uh, okay.

[01:08:32] I guess one of us will, do you want to roll, Brownie?

[01:08:34] Did Jake want to, did Jake want to roll?

[01:08:35] Yeah, I'll take the shot.

[01:08:36] Yeah.

[01:08:37] Someone roll for me, I'm away from my dice.

[01:08:39] Just add forward to it.

[01:08:40] Um, 11 over 6 for that, then?

[01:08:42] Uh, I should have had Ethan.

[01:08:44] All the, all the closer casualties are done.

[01:08:49] There are the 9 casualties, 7 shambles away.

[01:08:52] Here, here, here, Benny, take these all, scavenge, and I'll.

[01:08:56] Weight of the bags.

[01:08:58] Graves in your chest.

[01:08:59] Hurts your, your, your chest wounds.

[01:09:02] Just handing over the, the money bags from the back of the van to Benny.

[01:09:07] He'll take them.

[01:09:09] Roll the scavenge.

[01:09:11] Uh, scavenge is a 5 over 4 with a 3 on scavenge, 8 over 4.

[01:09:16] So you find 5 bounty on the casualties.

[01:09:19] We should probably split.

[01:09:21] Yep.

[01:09:21] As they move to 6 shambles away.

[01:09:24] Yeah, I'm hopping into the car.

[01:09:26] Getting it ready.

[01:09:27] Let's go!

[01:09:28] St. Bernard, Shake, Rourne Salt, you're all getting in the car?

[01:09:32] Uh, I assume so if we've already scavenged.

[01:09:35] Oh yeah.

[01:09:36] Yep.

[01:09:37] Okay.

[01:09:37] You load up in the car and drive off.

[01:09:40] How did we do on that?

[01:09:41] I missed the, the scavenge check.

[01:09:43] 5.

[01:09:44] 5 bounty.

[01:09:45] We're doing good so far, guys.

[01:09:47] We're up to 34 currently.

[01:09:49] 35.

[01:09:50] Not counting any references and stuff.

[01:09:52] Yep.

[01:09:53] Plus our hall of valuables.

[01:09:54] Plus your hall of valuables.

[01:09:55] Yes, I have, I have that in my notes.

[01:09:57] Mark off another charge as you drive up to the cosmos sphere.

[01:10:01] Taking a sort of slightly secured as route.

[01:10:03] And as you pull up, it's a nice fenced off parking lot.

[01:10:09] What strikes you as you pull up, besides the fact that there is a nice little pile of casualties stacked up by the front door,

[01:10:16] is that there is a, another vehicle, slightly bigger than the shambulance,

[01:10:22] parked with its rear, pulled right up to the main lobby door.

[01:10:26] Is there any insignias on that thing?

[01:10:30] It is painted Easter, Easter color green.

[01:10:34] You know, do you know what I'm talking about?

[01:10:36] Like that color.

[01:10:37] What is Easter color green?

[01:10:39] Or like the light, like a mint green, like a light mint green kind of thing.

[01:10:43] Almost a seafoam.

[01:10:44] Pastel green.

[01:10:44] Almost a seafoam, yeah.

[01:10:46] Pastel.

[01:10:46] But actually pastel is probably the color.

[01:10:49] And there is a red stripe on the side.

[01:10:52] And it, uh, sort of looks similar to the Planet Express ship coloring.

[01:10:59] These are the spacers.

[01:11:02] Maybe.

[01:11:03] You big signal?

[01:11:04] Yeah, there's, uh, at least three.

[01:11:06] Besides your own.

[01:11:08] Hmm.

[01:11:08] Is there anything already in the car?

[01:11:11] We just got an easy job.

[01:11:13] Should we roll an awareness to, uh, should we roll an awareness to see if we can, if

[01:11:18] anybody's still driving, like driving it?

[01:11:20] Yeah.

[01:11:20] Roll awareness.

[01:11:21] Okay.

[01:11:21] Who's in the front seat with me?

[01:11:23] That would be St. Bernard.

[01:11:25] Both of us roll awareness.

[01:11:27] Sure.

[01:11:27] Both of you can do awareness.

[01:11:29] Critical fail.

[01:11:30] Pull threes.

[01:11:31] Well, uh, I got a eight over five.

[01:11:35] So St. Bernard, you don't see anything?

[01:11:38] Truck.

[01:11:39] It's just a truck.

[01:11:40] How got me?

[01:11:42] Also, you don't see anyone as well.

[01:11:45] Uh, you don't see anyone in the main lobby watching out.

[01:11:49] Okay.

[01:11:49] You don't see any casualties walking around.

[01:11:51] They probably, that's probably what the pilot casualties is for.

[01:11:56] And you don't see any movement.

[01:11:58] What you do see is the vehicle appears to have the armor upgrade.

[01:12:02] And it has slots in the back for, like, gun ports.

[01:12:05] So it's pretend, there, there might be somebody inside the back.

[01:12:08] That's what I'm hearing.

[01:12:09] There's nobody in the driver's seat.

[01:12:11] Yes.

[01:12:11] Nobody in the driver's seat or the passenger seat.

[01:12:13] Okay.

[01:12:14] Look, man, I think we can all get along here.

[01:12:17] Maybe we should just reach out to them.

[01:12:19] And I'm actually kind of asking for a spot here to say that come hell or hot water, I'm going to announce our presence and give away any inkling of a surprise that we could have performed on these people by trying to get an extra wheel.

[01:12:34] Oh, dear.

[01:12:34] You mark off that wheel as you pin one of the epic addresses.

[01:12:38] Boo.

[01:12:39] They pick up.

[01:12:41] Yeah.

[01:12:42] Hey.

[01:12:42] Well, who is it?

[01:12:43] Hey, man.

[01:12:44] It's your boy.

[01:12:46] Hey, don't worry about that part.

[01:12:48] Anyway, I'm looking at your vehicle here.

[01:12:51] It seemed like we kind of had the same thing in mind.

[01:12:53] And I thought, hey, why don't we work together?

[01:12:56] So, look, we're a taker crew.

[01:12:59] We're trying to retrieve some stuff.

[01:13:00] You're doing shit, too.

[01:13:03] Like, what do you say?

[01:13:04] There's no reason we should all be against each other on this ordeal.

[01:13:09] Doing shit, too?

[01:13:11] We're recovering resources for the future of humanity.

[01:13:16] If that's just doing shit, I would beg to differ.

[01:13:20] Man, I'm sorry.

[01:13:21] I'm one of those nihilist people.

[01:13:24] Like, they don't like humanity.

[01:13:26] Never mind.

[01:13:26] I'm rattling.

[01:13:28] Anyway, sorry.

[01:13:29] So what are y'all there for?

[01:13:31] Maybe we don't want to step on any toes or anything?

[01:13:33] There are some command modules we are trying to recover.

[01:13:38] There are some actual intact spacesuits.

[01:13:42] We are recovering for usage of our astronauts.

[01:13:47] There are a bunch of other valuable equipment and knowledge that we are recovering for platform.

[01:13:55] Now, if you want to wait until we have retrieved what we've come here for, that is okay with us.

[01:14:03] Hey, are we all able to hear once in a conversation?

[01:14:07] I don't have GoogleNet, but if anybody wants to...

[01:14:10] Look, I don't have negotiation or any deception skills, really.

[01:14:15] So if anybody wants to fuck with this guy, they're going to have to join the call.

[01:14:19] Do you tell us what they said, at least?

[01:14:21] Oh, yeah.

[01:14:22] Unless someone boots up GoogleNet.

[01:14:24] It's just what Jake tells you.

[01:14:27] Benny, we could try to convince them these are all knockoff replicas that don't actually work.

[01:14:32] The real stuff is at that other space museum, wherever that other one was.

[01:14:36] I hate to say this to your face, but that is a good idea.

[01:14:40] Well, even a broken clock is right twice a day, huh?

[01:14:43] I suppose so.

[01:14:46] You reminded me of the Glancy game in Russia with everything's on the second train.

[01:14:53] Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.

[01:14:55] What is your plan, then?

[01:14:57] As Jake, you're being told that you can recover things when they're done.

[01:15:03] I'm waiting to look at our shopping list and see if there's some areas on the Venn diagram where we're going to have problems.

[01:15:10] Space suits.

[01:15:11] Maybe the Lunasphere.

[01:15:13] Also, possibly the books on space.

[01:15:15] You know?

[01:15:18] Go ahead.

[01:15:19] So, Benny, I think we either tell them it's all garbage replicas and none of it's going to work,

[01:15:25] or at least try to convince them that the space suits, they don't want the ones from the Apollo and from the Mercury missions

[01:15:31] because all of those are going to have their seals rotten and won't work in space

[01:15:35] and they should go for the new space suits.

[01:15:36] What do you think?

[01:15:37] That sounds like a plan.

[01:15:38] We only need, you know, all the space suits, do we?

[01:15:42] Just need the classics.

[01:15:44] And the classics are the ones that aren't going to work for them.

[01:15:46] It's before they change over to metric and everything new is metric

[01:15:49] and you're not going to be able to screw a standard hose into a metric receptacle anyway.

[01:15:53] They should just leave those to us.

[01:15:55] You make a good point.

[01:15:57] You should probably join the call and convince them with your gift of gab.

[01:16:01] I'll just hand a Ubixpex over to you.

[01:16:04] Like, look, as I rattle, he's, can I speak to an adult?

[01:16:08] Sure.

[01:16:09] Hold on one minute.

[01:16:10] The only one qualified here to speak on the metric system, I'll take over.

[01:16:15] Yes.

[01:16:16] Hello?

[01:16:16] Hello?

[01:16:17] Who am I talking to now?

[01:16:19] You can call me St. Bernard, yes.

[01:16:21] There's some information you ought to know about some of the gear in there.

[01:16:26] I think we ought to kind of work together to push our shared goals for the future of the moon

[01:16:32] or whatever's going on here.

[01:16:34] Future of the moon?

[01:16:36] I mean, living on the moon would be nice,

[01:16:39] but obviously Mars is the next planet we're going to inhabit.

[01:16:42] The moon is just a moon.

[01:16:44] Yes, well, naturally.

[01:16:45] Anyway, some of those spacesuits, you know, are awfully old.

[01:16:50] They've been used.

[01:16:52] They've been into space.

[01:16:54] Exactly.

[01:16:54] That's why we need them.

[01:16:55] They have been proven operational and useful.

[01:16:58] They work fine then.

[01:17:01] Now they're old.

[01:17:03] The gaskets are worn out.

[01:17:04] The rubber on the road will rot away.

[01:17:06] Probably dry rotted.

[01:17:08] Get a tight seal on that and before you know it, your lungs will be sucked out of your nose.

[01:17:12] Of course.

[01:17:14] We'll replace anything that needs replacing.

[01:17:16] But the main body is still there.

[01:17:20] We've got the best and brightest minds working on this problem.

[01:17:25] You can give me sensitivity rule.

[01:17:28] Uh-huh.

[01:17:29] Double sevens.

[01:17:30] Hmm.

[01:17:32] They have the best and brightest minds.

[01:17:34] He might be connected back to...

[01:17:36] I haven't come up with the name of the company yet, but this universe is equivalent of SpaceX.

[01:17:41] Who knows how far their reach is.

[01:17:44] Maybe they're truly working to get people to live on Mars.

[01:17:49] Or at least he believes that, considering you used...

[01:17:52] Yes.

[01:17:52] Or at least he believes that.

[01:17:54] He has the confidence of someone who's well-connected.

[01:17:57] Or at least believes that he's well-connected.

[01:17:59] Hmm.

[01:17:59] Well, I can see you have some real geniuses in your corner.

[01:18:03] Why is it they can't craft a better spacesuit?

[01:18:07] The ones in here they were built, you know, constructed decades ago.

[01:18:12] Well, you know, you need a platform.

[01:18:17] Platform heads the Enclave name.

[01:18:19] To build off of, you know, a base design to move forward from.

[01:18:24] We're simply just recovering the lost data and funneling it towards those who will...

[01:18:33] Well, they work.

[01:18:35] That's what matters.

[01:18:36] You seem to have caught him there.

[01:18:38] And you were stuttering a little bit.

[01:18:40] That or you're breaking up.

[01:18:42] What was that?

[01:18:43] We will take that into account.

[01:18:45] When platform launches, it will prove all of you wrong who says that we can't go into space.

[01:18:53] Yes, yes.

[01:18:54] And are you going to pressurize this thing or what?

[01:18:58] Are you mocking me?

[01:19:00] No, I'm simply asking a question.

[01:19:02] Are you going to pressurize it or are you going to...

[01:19:04] No.

[01:19:05] Yes, of course.

[01:19:06] Then you're going to have an oxygen supply.

[01:19:09] What's the use of the spacesuits if you're going to keep air inside the thing, then?

[01:19:13] You know, in case you need to walk along the surface and...

[01:19:17] Look, we've got this planned out and everything.

[01:19:20] Just come by platform if you want all the specifics.

[01:19:22] Or, like I said, to your friend.

[01:19:25] We will let you scavenge after we're done going through here.

[01:19:28] Tell you what, I can...

[01:19:29] How do we make a deal?

[01:19:30] I've got an engineer here.

[01:19:31] He's a real whiz.

[01:19:32] He could probably teach you how to build a...

[01:19:35] I don't know, a superior spacesuit or a...

[01:19:37] Any of the objects you might like to find in here.

[01:19:40] Mmm.

[01:19:41] Roll me for soid.

[01:19:42] Then we sold...

[01:19:44] Rutzel to the rest of the spacers.

[01:19:47] The whole point of the spacers...

[01:19:52] ...is that they believe by moving two bars they can escape the blight.

[01:19:56] Oh no, I'm aware.

[01:19:58] I hear ties go to the market, so...

[01:20:01] Oh!

[01:20:02] What is this engineer's name?

[01:20:03] I thought we had all of...

[01:20:05] We have all the top engineers in the aeronautical field.

[01:20:09] Oh, you have all the top engineers in the aeronautical field and not the mechanical field.

[01:20:15] Oh, who is this one?

[01:20:16] What's their name?

[01:20:18] You've probably heard of him.

[01:20:19] Road Salt.

[01:20:21] Jason precedes him.

[01:20:23] You hear what sounds like...

[01:20:25] Actually, it's you've expected...

[01:20:26] The person sort of, like...

[01:20:27] ...takes the glasses off of his face for a second.

[01:20:31] You hear, like, mumbling in the background.

[01:20:32] And then he puts them back on.

[01:20:35] Yeah, we've heard of this, Road Salt.

[01:20:37] You're willing to offer his services to us?

[01:20:39] I look back at him and go, yes!

[01:20:43] We're willing to give up the spacesuits for his services.

[01:20:46] Yes, yes, yes, that's great.

[01:20:48] Yes!

[01:20:49] We can have some people down right away.

[01:20:51] We can trade.

[01:20:52] We have the spacesuits already packed up and ready to go.

[01:20:56] We'll give them to you.

[01:20:57] Yes?

[01:20:57] I'm just looking quizzically at St. Bernard, you know, only hearing half the conversation.

[01:21:02] But I didn't hear my name.

[01:21:04] Like an OK sign, like, got it.

[01:21:06] Nailed it.

[01:21:08] You said you needed some other things besides spacesuits.

[01:21:12] What else did you need?

[01:21:13] We're willing to help you out.

[01:21:15] I mean, especially for the services of Road Salt.

[01:21:17] Do we want to just start giving them, like, oh, what do we got?

[01:21:20] Well, yeah, and I'm almost like in whatever.

[01:21:23] I guess sensitivity is basically insight, isn't it?

[01:21:27] Yeah.

[01:21:28] Do you want to roll sensitivity?

[01:21:30] I kind of do.

[01:21:31] I didn't know if I had already.

[01:21:33] No, that's fine.

[01:21:34] It's fine.

[01:21:34] Sorry.

[01:21:34] Just going forward, if you ever want to see if someone's lying or try and suss out their

[01:21:39] feelings, feel free to ask for a sensitivity roll.

[01:21:43] Holy shit.

[01:21:45] Fucking double seven.

[01:21:47] Oh, God.

[01:21:48] Jesus Christ.

[01:21:48] Jesus Christ.

[01:21:49] He generally.

[01:21:51] This job.

[01:21:53] He genuinely wants to help you out and sounds super excited and happy that you guys are

[01:22:01] here to help them.

[01:22:02] So for those.

[01:22:03] Would it be easier if I simply forwarded you the full list?

[01:22:07] Yes.

[01:22:07] Yes.

[01:22:08] Excellent.

[01:22:09] Excellent.

[01:22:09] Since you are fully on board, seem like you're on the level.

[01:22:13] There you go.

[01:22:14] See it in just a few moments.

[01:22:16] Hey, guys.

[01:22:17] Adam here.

[01:22:17] For those of you listening at home, if you would like to help Ethan buy a pair of dice

[01:22:22] that weren't given to Judas for betraying Christ.

[01:22:30] Ethan's dice were melted.

[01:22:32] Melted.

[01:22:32] We're from the melted down coins that Judas got.

[01:22:37] I'm finding a new red.

[01:22:39] I'm starting to think.

[01:22:41] You at home may be able to hear me rifling through my numerous dice.

[01:22:45] Yeah, this one's purple.

[01:22:46] That'll do.

[01:22:47] I'm going to take this.

[01:22:48] I'm going to take this D20 and 11 through 20 is just a repeat of 11 through 10.

[01:22:54] Believe it or not.

[01:22:55] I played a game at a con with a guy that rolled two D20s for D10s.

[01:22:59] It works, but man, it just felt so wrong.

[01:23:02] Hmm.

[01:23:02] Bizarre.

[01:23:03] I also think that you were probably a Roman centurion in your passing.

[01:23:08] And, you know, it's a double Jesus whammy is what's happened.

[01:23:12] But anyway, please keep running your game.

[01:23:13] I just wanted to tell you that you're cursed.

[01:23:15] Okay.

[01:23:17] Oh, like, I don't know.

[01:23:19] I just feel bad for your pockets.

[01:23:22] So you guys hear St. Bernard say that he could forward them in an email.

[01:23:27] Any response from the rest of the crew?

[01:23:30] Wait, no.

[01:23:31] What?

[01:23:32] What's going on?

[01:23:33] St. Bernard?

[01:23:35] Hang on.

[01:23:36] Hang on.

[01:23:36] I'm being rudely interrupted.

[01:23:38] Let me put you on hold for just a moment.

[01:23:40] Yes, I've got them right where I want them.

[01:23:43] Okay.

[01:23:44] Where do we have them?

[01:23:45] Great.

[01:23:46] They've already gathered up the spacesuits that they're going to give them to us.

[01:23:49] Just road salt over there.

[01:23:50] They're going to teach them how to, you know, weld together a, I don't know, some circuitry

[01:23:55] so they can make their little modules and this will be over in a jiffy.

[01:23:59] I think they're going to gather the rest of it.

[01:24:02] Should one of us roll foresight?

[01:24:05] I would argue that I would also like to pick up the headphones, take the headphones back from him

[01:24:11] and hit playback and make my own sensitivity check on that just to see how it...

[01:24:16] No, I'm not going to...

[01:24:18] It's an active call.

[01:24:20] You weren't recording it.

[01:24:24] Even your kid agrees with me.

[01:24:26] See?

[01:24:27] She called me a cheat, cheat, cheat.

[01:24:30] Exactly.

[01:24:31] Savage.

[01:24:33] There's nice young man's been on hold now for almost a minute.

[01:24:36] But anyway...

[01:24:37] Alright, well I guess we'll test...

[01:24:39] What do you think that'll take?

[01:24:40] Like, I don't know, an hour?

[01:24:42] I'm going over the list right now, yes.

[01:24:45] We have the spacesuits.

[01:24:46] We have the lunosphere.

[01:24:47] We could bring that down for you.

[01:24:50] Recording of the universe.

[01:24:52] Or the recording of the secrets of the universe and other stuff like that.

[01:24:56] You can walk through on your own, right?

[01:24:59] We don't have, like, recording equipment and it seems like you came here with the intention

[01:25:03] of doing that.

[01:25:04] Is that alright?

[01:25:05] Right?

[01:25:06] It'll have to do, I guess.

[01:25:08] Okay.

[01:25:08] Good, good.

[01:25:09] We did not clear the IMAX theater yet.

[01:25:11] So you will have to do so.

[01:25:13] We do not have that currently.

[01:25:14] We do not intend to go down there and clear that out.

[01:25:17] And the piece of the Berlin Wall.

[01:25:19] We have not yet cleared the German gallery.

[01:25:25] But we have set up DDJs.

[01:25:29] We could leave them in place if you wish to use them to clear out the German exhibit if

[01:25:33] you wish.

[01:25:34] We could allow that.

[01:25:36] It's a DDJ out of character.

[01:25:38] It's the door jam trap.

[01:25:41] Oh, yeah.

[01:25:42] Carbon fiber filaments that shoot out and block a doorway.

[01:25:46] Yeah.

[01:25:47] Denial.

[01:25:48] I think it's like a denial trap or something.

[01:25:49] Yeah.

[01:25:49] It sets the carbon fibers out.

[01:25:51] Carbon fiber.

[01:25:53] Wires.

[01:25:54] Yeah.

[01:25:54] The carbon nanotube wires out.

[01:25:57] And basically they're used to block off doorways from casualties.

[01:26:02] Like a person who has consciousness can like climb through them.

[01:26:06] But a casualty just walking forward can't.

[01:26:09] So and it's not like it's a door.

[01:26:12] It's just wires.

[01:26:12] So you can still like shoot through it, which is what he's saying.

[01:26:15] Like he could leave them in place if you wish to lure casualties over there and just

[01:26:18] shoot them safely from behind the DDJ.

[01:26:20] Well, I love it when a plan comes together.

[01:26:23] Good, good, good.

[01:26:24] Yes, yes.

[01:26:24] Do you have a map of the facility?

[01:26:28] We do.

[01:26:28] It was sent to us by our employer.

[01:26:30] I'm not saying that on the call, but informing out of character.

[01:26:34] In out of character, Ethan is like, no, don't.

[01:26:39] In character.

[01:26:40] I have like crit failed three times in this.

[01:26:43] Two times in this specific conversation.

[01:26:46] So, you know.

[01:26:47] Like, yes.

[01:26:48] All right.

[01:26:49] We have barricaded off the anything past the ticket desk and the gift store.

[01:26:54] With door denial jams on the first level.

[01:26:57] So the main lobby there and the ticket desk and the gift store are clear for you to walk along.

[01:27:02] If you head up the stairs to the second floor from the main lobby, you can find us there in the various Apollo base galleries.

[01:27:11] We have the crates there if you wish to take them now.

[01:27:14] Anything on the northern parts on the first floor and the second floor, we have barricaded off.

[01:27:20] You will have to clear those on your own.

[01:27:21] And then I'll make a note of that on the map.

[01:27:24] And I think we would like to take those spacesuits and such now.

[01:27:28] Of course, of course.

[01:27:29] Yes, yes.

[01:27:29] Just, uh.

[01:27:30] We'll bring them down and leave them in the main lobby for you to take.

[01:27:33] We are busy scavenging the rest of the gallery.

[01:27:35] If you wish to finish your scavenging.

[01:27:38] And we could finish that together.

[01:27:41] And we could head out together.

[01:27:43] And, you know.

[01:27:45] Go our separate ways amicably.

[01:27:47] Yes, well.

[01:27:48] It seemed like, uh.

[01:27:49] Like quite a nice resolution to all this.

[01:27:51] Good.

[01:27:52] Good.

[01:27:52] Yes.

[01:27:52] Yes.

[01:27:53] We are.

[01:27:54] We're very excited.

[01:27:55] But we must get back to scavenging.

[01:27:58] Just, you know.

[01:27:59] Come on in when you're ready.

[01:28:01] We look forward to talking with RoadSalt later.

[01:28:05] Yes, quite.

[01:28:06] Well.

[01:28:07] We will see you shortly.

[01:28:09] Okay.

[01:28:10] And he hangs up.

[01:28:11] Thank you.

[01:28:11] Goodbye.

[01:28:12] So basically.

[01:28:13] Hopefully we've gone better.

[01:28:15] So basically the area outside the digital dome on your map.

[01:28:19] And the banquet room.

[01:28:21] And up.

[01:28:22] Is full of casualties.

[01:28:24] And everything by the German wall on the second floor.

[01:28:29] And up.

[01:28:30] Is filled with casualties.

[01:28:31] Where do you want to go first?

[01:28:32] By the way.

[01:28:34] Uh.

[01:28:35] I mean.

[01:28:35] So St. Bernard's.

[01:28:36] Excuse me.

[01:28:37] Kind of gave me that look for a moment.

[01:28:39] You silver tongue devil.

[01:28:41] You.

[01:28:42] I have a way with words.

[01:28:44] If I may say so myself.

[01:28:46] That's that posh accent.

[01:28:47] Gamma.

[01:28:48] You bitch back.

[01:28:48] It's memory time.

[01:28:49] Oh yes.

[01:28:50] Here you go.

[01:28:51] So wait.

[01:28:52] What am I doing?

[01:28:53] We're going to help them design.

[01:28:55] Whatever that silly module is.

[01:28:56] That they're trying to.

[01:28:58] I need to blast off with.

[01:28:59] I don't know.

[01:28:59] Sketch something out.

[01:29:00] Make it up.

[01:29:01] If you have to.

[01:29:02] Okay.

[01:29:03] Okay.

[01:29:04] I mean.

[01:29:04] I'm a maintenance engineer.

[01:29:05] But okay.

[01:29:07] Yes.

[01:29:07] Well.

[01:29:07] They don't have one of those.

[01:29:09] I don't think.

[01:29:09] So you know.

[01:29:10] I'll just sketch up some notes.

[01:29:12] And they'll be on their way.

[01:29:13] Okay.

[01:29:14] There.

[01:29:15] I thought we were going to have to kill them all.

[01:29:16] So.

[01:29:17] This will be fun.

[01:29:18] I mean.

[01:29:18] We're working together.

[01:29:20] I guess.

[01:29:20] It's not all bad out here.

[01:29:21] I guess.

[01:29:22] I suppose.

[01:29:23] Well.

[01:29:23] No time like the present.

[01:29:24] The spacesuits are ready now.

[01:29:26] Let's go get them.

[01:29:27] All right.

[01:29:27] I'm going to put the car into park.

[01:29:29] And not stop it.

[01:29:31] Or should I?

[01:29:32] Or should I?

[01:29:33] I think you should stop it.

[01:29:35] I mean.

[01:29:35] If we're.

[01:29:36] One stolen.

[01:29:39] Yeah.

[01:29:39] I would almost be tempted to tell you to cry underneath their car and unhook the fuel

[01:29:43] line.

[01:29:44] But.

[01:29:44] Are we worried about it though?

[01:29:46] Like.

[01:29:47] I don't know how.

[01:29:48] What kind of check would be.

[01:29:49] Like sensitivity would just tell me if.

[01:29:51] Um.

[01:29:52] So any sensitivity check would unfortunately at the moment be reading St. Bernard.

[01:29:57] And he seems happy and proud of a job well done.

[01:30:01] So in other words crit failure sensitivity on Bernard.

[01:30:04] And you'll think that he's.

[01:30:06] Something's up and he's working with them.

[01:30:09] And then you can do whatever you want.

[01:30:11] Transitive property of crit failure.

[01:30:13] Crit failure.

[01:30:13] You can blow you a set of deep tens if you'd like.

[01:30:17] Crit failure.

[01:30:18] And there's like.

[01:30:18] Sorry.

[01:30:19] Sorry.

[01:30:20] Uh.

[01:30:20] Saber dart.

[01:30:20] Had to be done.

[01:30:21] What?

[01:30:21] Bang.

[01:30:22] Ha ha ha.

[01:30:24] It was always us.

[01:30:26] Bye.

[01:30:27] Do you guys pull into the parking lot and park next to the.

[01:30:31] Spacers.

[01:30:32] Truck.

[01:30:32] Or.

[01:30:33] Yeah.

[01:30:33] If.

[01:30:33] If no one else has any objections.

[01:30:35] Like.

[01:30:35] And I'm reading.

[01:30:36] All clear from our.

[01:30:38] From our.

[01:30:39] Correspondent.

[01:30:40] I don't see.

[01:30:42] I mean.

[01:30:42] I can't separate Adam from.

[01:30:44] Shake.

[01:30:45] Uh.

[01:30:45] Yeah.

[01:30:45] I guess.

[01:30:46] Just park.

[01:30:47] Shit.

[01:30:48] Yeah.

[01:30:48] No.

[01:30:49] Park down the road.

[01:30:51] What?

[01:30:51] Park down the road?

[01:30:52] I think.

[01:30:52] Yeah.

[01:30:53] I think park.

[01:30:53] All right.

[01:30:53] Yeah.

[01:30:54] Okay.

[01:30:54] Yeah.

[01:30:55] I'll park.

[01:30:55] Like out on the road.

[01:30:56] Like.

[01:30:57] Just a little bit of ways.

[01:30:58] Outside the fenced off parking lot?

[01:31:00] No.

[01:31:00] Actually.

[01:31:01] I'm going to park.

[01:31:01] As close as I can to the.

[01:31:03] And.

[01:31:03] To the exit.

[01:31:04] Okay.

[01:31:06] Their vehicle's literally backed right up to the door of the front lobby.

[01:31:09] Yeah.

[01:31:10] So we'll be across the parking lot I guess.

[01:31:12] That's fine.

[01:31:13] Oh.

[01:31:13] I see what you mean.

[01:31:14] The exit to the parking lot.

[01:31:16] Okay.

[01:31:16] Yeah.

[01:31:17] Like you're parking for a sports game.

[01:31:19] Are they backed up to the main lobby or the museum entrance?

[01:31:22] The main lobby.

[01:31:24] So.

[01:31:24] For some reason this map is labeled first floor and museum floor.

[01:31:28] The museum floor is the second floor.

[01:31:31] Okay.

[01:31:33] That's.

[01:31:33] That's.

[01:31:34] All right.

[01:31:35] Which I guess makes sense because all the museum exhibits are on the second floor.

[01:31:38] But.

[01:31:38] Yeah.

[01:31:39] Whatever.

[01:31:39] So as you guys pull in and park.

[01:31:41] You notice that there is a person.

[01:31:44] That has a large crate that they are putting down in the middle of the lobby.

[01:31:49] And they like wave at you and give you a thumbs up.

[01:31:52] And then head towards the direction of the stairs.

[01:31:54] And back up.

[01:31:55] Hmm.

[01:31:56] Ah.

[01:31:56] There we go.

[01:31:57] Nice on time.

[01:31:58] I guess.

[01:31:59] Go ahead and load that up.

[01:32:01] To.

[01:32:01] Yeah.

[01:32:02] I mean.

[01:32:02] Check the box first.

[01:32:04] I guess.

[01:32:04] You head in.

[01:32:05] You see the description of the first floor that he said where there's DDJs blocking off

[01:32:11] the upper part was correct.

[01:32:13] So they didn't lie to you there.

[01:32:15] And you open up the box.

[01:32:17] And it is full of not just the four spacesuits you wanted.

[01:32:20] But a whole bunch of other spacesuits.

[01:32:23] So you have extra spacesuits in the box.

[01:32:25] Perfect.

[01:32:26] This is fun.

[01:32:28] Do we want to put that in our van before we head on in?

[01:32:31] I think so.

[01:32:32] I'll also take that off the list I have in my notes.

[01:32:35] Same.

[01:32:36] We currently have one hall of valuables and one hall of spacesuit.

[01:32:40] In a nine hall van.

[01:32:41] Um.

[01:32:42] Those of you who entered the lobby can see the gift shop.

[01:32:46] Because all museums do that.

[01:32:48] And you can see books on display throughout all the glass windows.

[01:32:53] All right.

[01:32:54] So.

[01:32:54] Yeah.

[01:32:55] I will argue this.

[01:32:56] Shake has done illegal stuff.

[01:32:59] And I don't think.

[01:33:00] I think this gift raft is just making him kind of expect the other shoe to fall.

[01:33:06] So to speak.

[01:33:07] So.

[01:33:08] I'm almost tempted to suggest to you all that maybe we should have.

[01:33:12] Like.

[01:33:12] What's going to keep them from DDJ and us inside the building and stuff like that.

[01:33:17] It almost seems like we should almost put the party down by one.

[01:33:21] To kind of do Overwatch.

[01:33:23] I don't know if you share that opinion.

[01:33:26] Yeah.

[01:33:26] That's smart.

[01:33:27] Like.

[01:33:28] Just as a general rule.

[01:33:29] In the loss.

[01:33:30] So.

[01:33:31] What's it.

[01:33:31] Do you all want to go get the Berlin Wall first?

[01:33:33] Get up.

[01:33:34] Is it upstairs DDJ?

[01:33:35] Or is it.

[01:33:36] The main entrance to the museum DDJ?

[01:33:39] The upstairs is DDJ.

[01:33:41] But.

[01:33:41] The upper floor is like the first floor.

[01:33:44] In that it is also split in half with the north side.

[01:33:47] Cut off from the south side.

[01:33:49] The south side being cleared.

[01:33:50] Okay.

[01:33:51] At least according to the spacers.

[01:33:53] I've kind of got the shooting down.

[01:33:56] I've got the dead eye.

[01:33:57] I've got a plus four on all this.

[01:33:58] If you all want to put Shake on cleaning.

[01:34:02] The top floor.

[01:34:03] That's fine.

[01:34:04] I mean.

[01:34:05] I don't mind going into the thick of it.

[01:34:07] And trying to weed some of this out.

[01:34:09] I just.

[01:34:09] I'm almost to the mindset that we don't want to put all of our eggs in one basket.

[01:34:13] Yeah.

[01:34:13] So we want.

[01:34:14] All of our spacesuits in one crate.

[01:34:15] Yeah.

[01:34:16] So we want one team up.

[01:34:17] Go upstairs.

[01:34:18] And the other team stay down here.

[01:34:19] I think that wouldn't be a bad idea.

[01:34:22] Okay.

[01:34:23] Who wants to go with Shake?

[01:34:25] I can go with Shake.

[01:34:26] Flash back to you pulling me out of the water.

[01:34:29] I got you, buddy.

[01:34:32] Let's get on doing this job.

[01:34:34] It's not like it's rocket surgery.

[01:34:36] I look forlornly at the others.

[01:34:41] You said you agreed.

[01:34:43] I did.

[01:34:43] I did.

[01:34:44] Yeah, that's fine.

[01:34:44] So, yeah, we'll go ahead and head upstairs.

[01:34:47] What are the people on the first floor doing?

[01:34:50] You see casualties milling about outside the IMAX theater in the planetarium where the recordings would be.

[01:34:58] And you'd see the gift shop full of books.

[01:35:01] Do you want to try?

[01:35:03] Do we want to try the bookstore first to get those?

[01:35:07] So what else was on this floor?

[01:35:09] So the stuff on the first floor that you recover are the IMAX theater recordings and the books from the gift shop.

[01:35:17] Okay.

[01:35:17] The theater recordings would be less weight.

[01:35:20] Yeah, as in no weight.

[01:35:22] Yeah.

[01:35:23] They'd be easy to carry.

[01:35:24] All right.

[01:35:25] We just have to kill a couple of casualties.

[01:35:27] There are currently...

[01:35:28] That's way too low.

[01:35:29] I rolled a one.

[01:35:30] There's not one casualty.

[01:35:31] Damn it.

[01:35:33] One really big casualty.

[01:35:35] There are currently 23 casualties remaining on the first floor that you could shoot...

[01:35:45] That you see that you could shoot from the safety of the DDGs.

[01:35:48] So you just got to spend the charges.

[01:35:49] Okay.

[01:35:50] Just want to do that then.

[01:35:52] Yes, but I don't want to spend all my charges.

[01:35:56] Because...

[01:35:56] No.

[01:35:57] Yeah, checks his bullets.

[01:35:58] Or checks his gun.

[01:35:59] This might be a good time to ask.

[01:36:01] How does refresh work?

[01:36:03] When you use refresh, you get back all the charges for the piece of gear that you are recharging.

[01:36:10] Okay.

[01:36:11] Unless it is a purchase-only item or something to that effect.

[01:36:15] Makes sense.

[01:36:16] Well, I've got nine charges left on my handgun right now with two refresh in the bank.

[01:36:21] I've got seven and two recharges.

[01:36:24] I do have extended mag, so...

[01:36:28] How would you guys like to split the charges amongst yourselves?

[01:36:31] Or do you not want to handle this?

[01:36:35] Actually, I just realized my gun is actually hungry.

[01:36:39] So...

[01:36:39] Oh, so you actually have four charges left.

[01:36:43] Yeah.

[01:36:43] And by four charges, you mean two shots.

[01:36:46] Yeah.

[01:36:46] I've only got two shots left and two recharges.

[01:36:50] There's how many casualties?

[01:36:51] 23.

[01:36:53] I mean, if I use up the rest of this handgun refresh, that'd be 19 out.

[01:36:58] I mean, I could refresh again and still have six charges left.

[01:37:02] I think I can spend a recharge for the last ones, if that'll work.

[01:37:10] Why not...

[01:37:11] I can smoke 19 of them.

[01:37:14] Yeah.

[01:37:14] So if you do 19 and Balto handles four, which would be a total of eight charges, you can do that.

[01:37:21] And then last refresh, and then I'm back to zero uses of the handgun.

[01:37:26] So...

[01:37:27] So then you can use your last refresh to have ten charges in it again?

[01:37:30] That's what I meant, yeah.

[01:37:32] It was like, they could still have all ten shots after using that last refresh.

[01:37:37] And montage, blam, blam, blam.

[01:37:39] Okay, so that's what you're actually doing.

[01:37:41] Yeah, blam, blam, blam, blam.

[01:37:42] You're banging on the wall to attract them over, shooting them, repeating until no more come.

[01:37:48] You shoot a total of 23, and you're pretty sure the first floor is clear.

[01:37:53] Cut to the other group.

[01:37:55] You head up the stairs.

[01:37:57] Mm-hmm.

[01:37:58] You notice, as you're heading up, there was a motion sensor on the stairs.

[01:38:02] You pass right by, and you enter into the astronaut experience, where there are two people in motorcycle helmets painted white, with typical space logos painted onto the side of them.

[01:38:18] They have submachine guns, and they're loading up crates of various exhibits.

[01:38:26] They wave at you.

[01:38:27] Oh, hey guys.

[01:38:29] It's a pleasure working with you all.

[01:38:32] Likewise.

[01:38:33] We look forward to working with RoadSalt going forward as well.

[01:38:36] Glances at RoadSalt.

[01:38:38] I just give a thumbs up.

[01:38:40] Mm-hmm.

[01:38:40] Oh, awesome.

[01:38:41] Well, where do we need to clear here?

[01:38:44] We'll help out.

[01:38:45] We can all work together.

[01:38:46] If you head over to the German section, you can clear it out.

[01:38:49] All of that stuff is early rocketry.

[01:38:52] We are not interested in that.

[01:38:53] Just the more recent advances in space technology.

[01:38:56] Oh, okay.

[01:38:57] All right.

[01:38:58] I'm just trying to figure out how to...

[01:39:00] Okay.

[01:39:00] Never mind.

[01:39:01] Yeah.

[01:39:01] If you wish to climb through the DDJs, feel free to do so.

[01:39:04] Or you can just push the button in the middle of the device, and the springs will detach and so on, and you can just walk on through.

[01:39:14] I think we might just...

[01:39:16] You want to just navigate through it, or you want to detach them?

[01:39:19] I think we should leave them up.

[01:39:21] Mm-hmm.

[01:39:22] But we know where the button is in case we have to scramble quickly out.

[01:39:26] Yeah.

[01:39:26] Well, appreciate it.

[01:39:28] And we'll keep our eyes open if we see anything that looks like you guys would like.

[01:39:31] Of course.

[01:39:32] Of course.

[01:39:32] Your lunosphere is over there.

[01:39:34] We didn't pack it up quite yet, but you could take that.

[01:39:38] And we have left the signage intact, so you could start recording whenever you wish.

[01:39:43] Okay.

[01:39:45] Well, thank you very much.

[01:39:47] I guess I'll go ahead.

[01:39:48] Oh, no, thank you.

[01:39:49] Thank you.

[01:39:49] In this astronaut experience area, are there any examples of the tools astronauts would use, either on spacewalks or anything like that?

[01:39:58] Sure.

[01:39:58] Let's say so.

[01:39:59] Are there any comically large wrenches?

[01:40:03] I will...

[01:40:04] If you're looking for, like, a weaponized tool kind of thing, I would say roll a scavenge check for that specifically.

[01:40:09] Is that what you were going for?

[01:40:11] I was looking for a 5 3 8 spanner.

[01:40:14] Oh, oh, oh.

[01:40:15] To do that?

[01:40:15] Yeah.

[01:40:15] Give me a scavenge check for that.

[01:40:17] All right.

[01:40:17] That's a 7 over 2.

[01:40:19] Okay.

[01:40:20] Yeah, you managed to find the object your dependent requires.

[01:40:23] I imagine that's an entire hall, considering the size of it.

[01:40:27] Yes.

[01:40:28] Slip that into my backpack, and my backpack is almost full.

[01:40:31] Destroy a person's head with that thing.

[01:40:34] Mm-hmm.

[01:40:36] They go, oh, yes, yes, we have two of those back at platform.

[01:40:40] One of them is...

[01:40:41] We had a third, but it got a little bloodied when someone decided to use it against a vector.

[01:40:45] You know, we need this one for, you know, industrial-sized maintenance.

[01:40:50] Yes, yes, of course.

[01:40:52] Am I getting any...

[01:40:52] I'm going to roll sensitivities to see if they seem on the up and up, if they seem like they're planning something.

[01:40:59] Are their motorcycle visors mirrored, or can we see their faces through them?

[01:41:04] Mirrored.

[01:41:05] Okay.

[01:41:06] Is it okay if I do a sensitivity check?

[01:41:09] Yes, you can do that.

[01:41:10] 8 over 3.

[01:41:11] They seem very nice and friendly to you, too, but even more friendly to Road Salt.

[01:41:19] They seem generally happy and excited to see you guys.

[01:41:22] Okay.

[01:41:23] I guess easing on through the DDJ thing.

[01:41:26] You'd be happy, too, if somebody was going to be offering their skills to teach them.

[01:41:31] To teach you.

[01:41:34] So you walk around the exhibits, you see them, and you come to the DDJs.

[01:41:40] And I'll spend a charge on my Ubix to activate it for recording purposes while we're here.

[01:41:45] Yeah, you spend some time recording the exhibits before heading over to the DDJs.

[01:41:49] And you see that there are 14 casualties on the top floor, or you can make out that amount.

[01:41:59] Honestly, I've got the extra refresh anyway.

[01:42:02] I don't mind being the guy who takes all these out, Road Salt.

[01:42:07] Well, let me empty my gun since I took a few shots earlier, and then I can do a refresh also.

[01:42:13] Okay.

[01:42:14] Do you need a skill check for this, or is it basically shooting a barrel?

[01:42:17] Just spend the charges.

[01:42:19] Well, I've got nine right off the bat then.

[01:42:21] And I'll do my refresh, and then you can do what you need to do, Adam.

[01:42:25] You said 14, so I just need to do five.

[01:42:28] So, okay.

[01:42:30] Wouldn't want to have to reload in a hurry.

[01:42:32] Yeah, that would be bad.

[01:42:33] So you do the same thing that they were doing below.

[01:42:36] Banging, making noise, attracting them over.

[01:42:39] And after a bit, no more cum.

[01:42:41] And you clear out the casualties.

[01:42:45] Might I entice you?

[01:42:47] I have one round left.

[01:42:49] Maybe my head is in the clouds too much, or is that too much double doing that?

[01:42:54] I was going to say, I will.

[01:42:56] It's a little too much if you just waste a...

[01:42:59] I mean, it's just one shot.

[01:43:00] Good point.

[01:43:01] You have potentially a whole refresh left.

[01:43:04] That's cool.

[01:43:05] I will go ahead and just spend my refresh as well.

[01:43:08] I'll lose the round.

[01:43:09] This seems important.

[01:43:11] Okay.

[01:43:12] How are these casualties dressed?

[01:43:14] Do they look like employees?

[01:43:16] Do they look like college students?

[01:43:17] Do they look like randos?

[01:43:19] Some employees, a whole bunch of what look like just typical museum patrons.

[01:43:23] Can I scavenge these 14 casualties?

[01:43:26] Yes, you can.

[01:43:27] That's a 7 over 1 natural, 10 over 1 modified.

[01:43:32] You find 7 bounty on the casualties.

[01:43:35] All the casualties that were outside, by the way, in case it wasn't obvious, were already

[01:43:40] picked through since they were piled up.

[01:43:42] Yeah.

[01:43:43] Okay.

[01:43:43] Did the people down below want to scavenge the casualties?

[01:43:48] Yeah, we might as well.

[01:43:49] Okay.

[01:43:50] Saberhead, do you got scavenging at all, or is it just me?

[01:43:53] Do not have scavenging.

[01:43:55] Okay.

[01:43:55] I'll roll my 1 then.

[01:43:57] That is 9 over 4 with an 8 natural black.

[01:44:01] You find 8 bounty.

[01:44:03] Okay.

[01:44:03] So you're now at a total of 50 plus a haul of valuables.

[01:44:08] Okay.

[01:44:10] But not to, you know, have you go through every little detail of ripping the copper wiring

[01:44:15] out of this museum.

[01:44:16] You managed to find everything on the list that you needed.

[01:44:21] You cleared the casualties, threat.

[01:44:24] Did you want the V2 rockets?

[01:44:27] Yeah.

[01:44:28] Are they getting the V2 rockets?

[01:44:31] Because we were going to get them to sell to them or make munitions with them.

[01:44:36] Early exhibits, they don't care about.

[01:44:39] They only care about the more recent Apollo and astronaut experience exhibits, really.

[01:44:44] So the V1 and V2 rockets, you could take if you wish.

[01:44:49] That sounds good.

[01:44:50] They would be 2 haul each.

[01:44:54] Okay.

[01:44:54] So we're looking at, okay.

[01:44:55] So it's 4 haul for the V-Rock.

[01:44:57] Yeah.

[01:44:57] And there's 2 of them.

[01:44:58] Okay.

[01:44:58] So we have 1 haul of valuables.

[01:45:01] 1, 2, 3, 4 haul for all of the stuff except for the V-Rockets.

[01:45:07] We've collected.

[01:45:08] And then another 4 haul for the V-Rockets.

[01:45:11] Well, we're also talking about loading up the van and walking home, right?

[01:45:14] That's true.

[01:45:15] So we have...

[01:45:16] Now, does that 9...

[01:45:17] Do I have to count myself as the driver?

[01:45:19] Yes.

[01:45:20] You count the driver as taking up one of the haul.

[01:45:24] All right.

[01:45:24] So if somebody wants to take the bags of money or something...

[01:45:28] Yeah, I'll carry those because I'd scavenge them.

[01:45:30] I'm good with that.

[01:45:31] We'll stuff the crate of suits and the Berlin Rock and the Lunasphere and the V-Rockets

[01:45:38] either into or strap them onto the top of the shambulance.

[01:45:44] And I think that'll be just about 9 of all used up on the shambulance.

[01:45:51] Like that rocket up in the Toy Story when they're on that card.

[01:45:57] Oh, yeah.

[01:45:58] That'll go great.

[01:46:01] The spacers are even kind enough to help you tie on the stuff to your shambulance if you

[01:46:08] ask them to.

[01:46:09] I bet that made Adam even more nervous.

[01:46:11] That's awful nice of them.

[01:46:16] So when do you guys need me to come down and consult?

[01:46:20] Oh, we'll drive you there right now.

[01:46:23] Okay, hold on.

[01:46:25] There it is.

[01:46:25] Hey, Benny.

[01:46:28] I'm going to need you to take the bags.

[01:46:31] We still split up.

[01:46:33] Well, it sounds like I'm going to be riding down there and then I'll have to come back

[01:46:37] to the Enclave later.

[01:46:38] So I won't be able to return these to the Enclave with you guys.

[01:46:41] But one of you can carry it.

[01:46:42] Yes, you can head back when we're done with the work.

[01:46:46] Somebody roll sensitivity.

[01:46:48] Are we together at this point or are we still split up?

[01:46:52] Yes, yes.

[01:46:52] You're all in the parking lot.

[01:46:54] All the vehicles are packed up.

[01:46:56] The back of their vehicle is open and they're gesturing for road salt to go on.

[01:47:01] Yeah, sorry.

[01:47:02] I didn't mean to interrupt here.

[01:47:03] But just because we're going to like a gift shop and stuff like that of a like spacey

[01:47:09] place.

[01:47:10] Could I roll scavenge to see if I can find a tablet that's functional?

[01:47:14] Yeah, sure.

[01:47:14] You can do that.

[01:47:15] In this educational place?

[01:47:17] Yeah, sure.

[01:47:18] Okay.

[01:47:19] So that's nine over three.

[01:47:20] You find a beat up old tablet that technically connects to the internet.

[01:47:26] Perfect.

[01:47:27] One of your point of sale tablets for the gift shop for the employees maybe?

[01:47:31] Basically, yeah.

[01:47:33] It's got its priority locks on there and stuff like that.

[01:47:40] But you know.

[01:47:41] It'll get jailbroken.

[01:47:42] It's fine.

[01:47:43] So.

[01:47:45] Oh, Lord.

[01:47:46] So.

[01:47:48] Did anybody roll up?

[01:47:49] You ready to roll up in your character?

[01:47:51] Brownie?

[01:47:53] You can come back when the work is done, you should say.

[01:47:55] You can come back when the mission's over, yes.

[01:47:58] I just thought of something.

[01:47:59] It's like.

[01:48:00] Planet.

[01:48:00] I just kind of thought of something.

[01:48:02] Is there no other mission?

[01:48:04] Oh, sorry.

[01:48:04] Go.

[01:48:05] Go.

[01:48:05] I'm just thinking like road salt, like swap it.

[01:48:08] Like Brownie swaps out road salt with his, his dependent.

[01:48:11] And then his dependent is still road salt.

[01:48:14] Who's in another enclave.

[01:48:18] I could roll up Sparky.

[01:48:22] Oh my God.

[01:48:23] I can't.

[01:48:24] We can't.

[01:48:24] We can't sell you.

[01:48:26] That's horrible.

[01:48:27] I mean, it's more like a loan.

[01:48:29] It's like renting.

[01:48:30] It's fine.

[01:48:30] It's like layaway.

[01:48:31] Oh my God.

[01:48:34] It sounds like that's what we, we, uh, negotiated.

[01:48:37] I mean, I don't recall negotiating you for mission to space.

[01:48:43] I can't believe I just said that.

[01:48:46] So I know, I know you guys are good and you, you put up with me a lot with my, my bad jokes.

[01:48:50] Do you think they're really going to want me to stay there for very long?

[01:48:53] I mean, I'll help them with whatever they need, but they're going to probably let me go.

[01:48:59] I got a crazy idea.

[01:49:01] Let's all relocate to that.

[01:49:04] I kind of like that idea.

[01:49:08] Is that against the parameters of the, uh, the, the game?

[01:49:14] Join a cult.

[01:49:17] Join a cult enclave.

[01:49:18] It's completely different.

[01:49:19] We don't have to be, um, would you, would you relocate your dependents?

[01:49:27] Do they, do they take latents?

[01:49:30] No.

[01:49:31] Everything is strictly quarantined.

[01:49:33] They can't have any chance of infection going up into space.

[01:49:36] That's, that's a big problem then.

[01:49:39] Oh, we could, we could 10k lakes it and just all of us be in different fucking enclaves.

[01:49:44] I'm not even in an enclave.

[01:49:46] I'm just letting on every journey to come pick me up at the beginning of each mission.

[01:49:49] Yeah.

[01:49:49] Oh God.

[01:49:51] I'd say that would cost an extra fuel.

[01:49:57] It's like a guy you had to pick up.

[01:49:58] You were going to take him to work one day, but then all of a sudden, six months later,

[01:50:02] you're still picking him up every day to take him to work with you.

[01:50:05] He's like, fuck it.

[01:50:06] Oh my God.

[01:50:07] Yeah.

[01:50:08] Oh God.

[01:50:11] Also, we are going to probably end up selling that you've expects, I guess.

[01:50:13] Yeah.

[01:50:15] Yeah.

[01:50:15] Gentlemen, we were thinking more short term though.

[01:50:20] That's just kind of what, you know, consultation was.

[01:50:25] Is there any work we could take with us to our enclave to do for you all?

[01:50:29] And risk someone walking off with it or stealing it?

[01:50:34] I mean, think of the Soviets.

[01:50:36] I mean, the Russians and the Chinese, they could take it and they could beat us to space.

[01:50:41] They could cut us off.

[01:50:42] I mean, they beat you to space by like a hundred years.

[01:50:46] Man, I got some shit at home.

[01:50:48] If you smoked, you'd think you were in space.

[01:50:51] Maybe you should set your sights a little lower.

[01:50:53] Not helping.

[01:50:54] Okay.

[01:50:56] Maybe.

[01:50:57] Who knows?

[01:50:58] You could be shit on the moon in no time.

[01:51:01] All right.

[01:51:01] Yeah.

[01:51:02] What do we want to do here, guys?

[01:51:04] Is Road Salt coming with us to help us with our work or not?

[01:51:10] I don't mean to push this.

[01:51:13] It's just that you haven't like hard said a thing.

[01:51:16] You've been floating different ideas.

[01:51:18] Once you hard say a thing, I'll say do a roll or something like that.

[01:51:22] What's everybody's consensus?

[01:51:23] We got to squeeze on this somehow.

[01:51:26] How are we handling this?

[01:51:27] Well, I think that because of the way the rolls have been and the way we've been doing this,

[01:51:32] I think it would be really like narratively, it'd be really interesting if we did just like end up accidentally selling one of our own takers.

[01:51:41] I'm okay with that.

[01:51:42] Out of character, I'm okay with that.

[01:51:45] Yeah.

[01:51:45] Okay.

[01:51:45] Keeping in mind that if my character that I currently have goes to that enclave, does a bunch of work with them,

[01:51:52] there could be a flight of the Valkyries charge to help the war assets later.

[01:51:58] Look at the fight for another day.

[01:52:00] Well, either I get in really good with them and I'm a helpful war asset later potentially,

[01:52:05] or they get sick of my terrible jokes and I appear one, maybe two games down the line and the other character can be shuffled back out.

[01:52:14] One of the two.

[01:52:14] I'm good with that either way.

[01:52:16] Those are some possibilities that I see.

[01:52:18] I don't want to push you into going and giving yourself up, but another thing you could do is you could relocate your dependent to platform and they could basically hold him hostage to guarantee that you come back.

[01:52:34] That could prompt some self-control checks and stuff.

[01:52:38] I mean, if they treated him well, it would honestly be better than them continuing to pull him down into the salt mines.

[01:52:44] Yes, but I would require a persuasion check to convince them of that.

[01:52:47] If that's the route you wish to take as well.

[01:52:49] I want this to be your decision, Brownie.

[01:52:51] Don't worry about us.

[01:52:52] Are you all, do you agree with me, folks?

[01:52:54] This is like his character, his decision.

[01:52:56] Yeah.

[01:52:57] I just like the thought that during the charge on the fort, Road Salt shows up with a jetpack or something.

[01:53:03] I don't know.

[01:53:05] A flamethrower.

[01:53:07] Jetpack and a flamethrower.

[01:53:08] But of course.

[01:53:09] I don't think it's going to get that easy, but I know it's not going to make that much progress, huh?

[01:53:15] No, no.

[01:53:16] So the progress is mostly, so I don't remember if I explained this, but the spacer cult is generally the meme of I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

[01:53:27] Because there are talks about actually being on Mars this decade.

[01:53:32] But I mean, that was five years ago that they said that.

[01:53:35] So this is near future.

[01:53:37] So progress was actually being made to living on Mars.

[01:53:40] So people who just want to leave the planet are like, we were nearly there.

[01:53:44] If we just push hard enough and work hard enough, we could actually get off this godforsaken planet.

[01:53:50] And the people who are actually able to do that are positioned in the recession.

[01:53:55] And the people in the loss are the crazy people who think they could do it themselves.

[01:54:00] Or the crazy people who think if they funnel necessary information back to the recession people, they can join them.

[01:54:07] What do we be, Brownie?

[01:54:08] Let's do the lose road salt for an episode or two until they get sick of the bad jokes and can roll up Sparky for a couple of games.

[01:54:19] If that's, that'll work for everybody.

[01:54:21] Are we going to have like a mechanic, Nick, to where it's like, right at the beginning of each session, like no, you roll like, no, they're still tolerating him.

[01:54:29] I like the idea of that if you're willing to do it, Nick.

[01:54:32] I would, I would allow it, but you would not be able to use road salts crash hero spot.

[01:54:39] That's fine.

[01:54:40] It's not technically going out.

[01:54:42] I'll figure out something for Sparky before next time and I'll make it appropriate.

[01:54:47] I might keep the equipment the same just to make that easy, except for the tool.

[01:54:51] Okay.

[01:54:52] I feel so, this is so weird.

[01:54:54] Like you were too fucking nice, Nick.

[01:54:57] Like these guys were so cool and helpful.

[01:54:59] And I'm like, you know me, I've been wanting to shoot a motherfucker for an hour.

[01:55:04] They believed, they 100% believed that you were selling road salt for a bunch of astronaut suits.

[01:55:10] They were happy to exchange that.

[01:55:12] They thought they were getting the better deal.

[01:55:15] Well, we'll let it start.

[01:55:16] Yeah.

[01:55:17] Oh my God.

[01:55:18] I love how this is turned.

[01:55:20] We may have to eventually do one mission where we got to break road salt out.

[01:55:25] A heist game.

[01:55:27] Yeah.

[01:55:28] I'm down for this.

[01:55:29] This leads to new fun gameplay.

[01:55:31] Also, not going to lie.

[01:55:32] I'm maybe taking some notes for a Red Markets on Mars game now.

[01:55:38] The Spacer Cult actually worked, except the blight still follows.

[01:55:43] Or they get to Mars.

[01:55:45] Turns out the aliens theory was correct.

[01:55:49] Yeah, we all have the blight up here, but it's way worse.

[01:55:53] Yeah.

[01:55:53] They had normal blight.

[01:55:55] Guys, we found some ruins.

[01:55:57] They had one closet crusader on their team that brought a small sample.

[01:56:01] Yeah.

[01:56:02] Oh my God.

[01:56:03] Yes.

[01:56:03] Yeah.

[01:56:04] Like, there's like, oh, okay.

[01:56:05] We'll talk.

[01:56:06] I'll talk about that later.

[01:56:07] Yeah.

[01:56:08] Okay.

[01:56:08] So, Road Salt is up.

[01:56:11] Are you going to go with them?

[01:56:12] And you're going to roll Sparky and Road Salt will reappear at an indeterminate time?

[01:56:17] Yeah.

[01:56:17] We can chat between games about that, about how you want to handle that.

[01:56:22] Yeah.

[01:56:23] That's good with me, if that's good with you, Brownie.

[01:56:25] Yeah.

[01:56:25] I'm willing to give it a try.

[01:56:27] I like the idea of them either getting fed up with me or, you know, a heist episode where

[01:56:31] you come and heist me out.

[01:56:34] Okay.

[01:56:36] So, Road Salt, what do you say to everybody before getting into the back of the van?

[01:56:41] Well, guys, sounds like this is what it's going to be.

[01:56:45] Just, you know, take care and put Sparky in touch.

[01:56:51] Yeah.

[01:56:52] We'll definitely do that, Road Salt.

[01:56:53] We'll give him more share of the bounty.

[01:56:57] I go to shake Road Salt's hand.

[01:57:00] I pull him in close and I'm like, you can't for a little chap.

[01:57:04] These fellows seem like they might be complete lunatics.

[01:57:10] Oh, God.

[01:57:12] Make a self-control check, Road Salt.

[01:57:14] Oh, my God.

[01:57:16] Oh, my God.

[01:57:18] He's 10-10.

[01:57:19] I have a new best friend.

[01:57:20] Oh, my God.

[01:57:21] Oh, my God.

[01:57:22] I'm supposed to cry.

[01:57:24] Holy shit.

[01:57:26] Although, that's a good point.

[01:57:28] The others should probably have self-control checks for having...

[01:57:32] Yeah.

[01:57:33] I'm going to have everyone do a self-control check for splitting the group.

[01:57:39] So, with that last dad joke, Road Salt chuckles and gets onto the van.

[01:57:47] And as the door closes and the engine revs and you split ways, all of you give me self-control checks.

[01:57:53] Can I inject one thing in there?

[01:57:56] Yes.

[01:57:56] As the doors to the van close and you hear me talking to the spacers, wow, this job really took off.

[01:58:06] One more for the road.

[01:58:11] That was a 12 over 7 for myself control check.

[01:58:15] 10 over 5.

[01:58:17] Purple D10 has also betrayed me.

[01:58:20] That's a 2 under 9.

[01:58:21] All right.

[01:58:22] Nick, he's crying in the back.

[01:58:24] Nick, I would like to opt to fail that.

[01:58:27] Okay.

[01:58:28] Road Salt.

[01:58:29] I guess this doesn't...

[01:58:32] This may not matter, but do your self-control check.

[01:58:35] Failure.

[01:58:36] 1 under 5.

[01:58:37] 4 under 5 with the self-control.

[01:58:40] So, if you are not Road Salt and you failed...

[01:58:44] Detachment.

[01:58:44] ...take 2 to the detachment.

[01:58:47] If you pass, don't lose any.

[01:58:51] Okay.

[01:58:51] This is a level 2 check.

[01:58:53] Do you think this would be trauma to Road Salt, Brownie, or stress?

[01:58:57] I'd say probably stress because trauma is my face is going to eat eaten off.

[01:59:00] Okay.

[01:59:01] It was more of, do you think the spacers are going to be harmful to you or not?

[01:59:05] That was more of, like, what your line of thinking was.

[01:59:07] So, just...

[01:59:08] You failed, so take 2 to stress.

[01:59:10] And done.

[01:59:12] As you part ways, you drive off to the Enclave with your rockets and your space gear,

[01:59:20] and you get a call from the ward.

[01:59:23] Do you have the equipment?

[01:59:25] Yes.

[01:59:25] Who...

[01:59:26] Ethan is...

[01:59:27] It would have been probably St. Bernard.

[01:59:29] Yeah.

[01:59:29] As a matter of fact, we do.

[01:59:32] That's good.

[01:59:32] That's a fairly simple job.

[01:59:34] As soon as you bring it back, there'll be an archivist waiting for you to unload it.

[01:59:40] The deal's gone through.

[01:59:41] We can start storing equipment and hiding people out in your mines.

[01:59:48] Fantastic.

[01:59:48] And with your...

[01:59:50] In with the lodge that you obtained through Lex, we'll be able to get some food sent our way

[01:59:57] to feed the people hiding out in a hatch.

[02:00:00] So, good work to all four of you.

[02:00:03] Thank you.

[02:00:04] Thank you.

[02:00:05] Related, do you know a good mechanic?

[02:00:08] I mean, you have Rhoadsalt.

[02:00:10] You have the best.

[02:00:11] Yes.

[02:00:11] But do you know another one?

[02:00:13] We have him, of course.

[02:00:14] But do you know another one?

[02:00:15] I can refer one if Rhoadsalt is stuck on anything.

[02:00:21] Everything's fine.

[02:00:21] He just...

[02:00:22] He's sabbatical.

[02:00:24] Okay.

[02:00:25] I'll take your word on it.

[02:00:26] Don't worry about it, but I'm gonna need a plan B.

[02:00:30] We'll work on it.

[02:00:32] Tell everyone there, good job, and we're proud of all four of you.

[02:00:37] And with that, she hangs up.

[02:00:38] Like how you just said four twice.

[02:00:41] And I won't cause another self-control check, but we end there with you hanging up and you

[02:00:45] all just staring down the road without Rhoadsalt, and the screen goes to black.

[02:00:51] I feel like this is fucking...

[02:00:53] Like, I don't know if you've read Animal Farm, but the horse boxer, like after he serves

[02:00:59] his use for Napoleon the white pig, they sell him for glue.

[02:01:05] This is what I've kind of caught.

[02:01:08] I've never actually read that.

[02:01:10] I'm sorry.

[02:01:11] Holy crap.

[02:01:12] No, it's fine.

[02:01:12] It's the English sugar, guys.

[02:01:14] Yeah.

[02:01:15] You sold Rhoadsalt for a box of spacesuits.

[02:01:17] Magic beans?

[02:01:19] I knew I should have held out for more.

[02:01:22] So we said there were extra spacesuits in there, right?

[02:01:25] Does that mean extra bounty?

[02:01:26] Huh?

[02:01:29] I will...

[02:01:29] That came out of your human mouth.

[02:01:32] I will allow a networking check for that, but it's not going to be anything.

[02:01:37] It'll be like one or two bounty, depending on what you roll.

[02:01:39] No one's looking for spacesuits.

[02:01:41] Hey, hey, hey.

[02:01:42] Don't know.

[02:01:43] Don't sell them.

[02:01:44] We may be able to trade the spacesuits back for Rhoadsalt.

[02:01:47] Hold on to it.

[02:01:47] I seriously think we should use this as a leverage tool to sweeten the deal if we're going to pay his...

[02:01:54] Yeah.

[02:01:56] The people that you could sell these spacesuits to, you just gave them a mechanic to build them better spacesuits.

[02:02:03] So that's why it's like one or two bounty.

[02:02:06] I have a question also about the Yubix specs that we got from Ward.

[02:02:10] Or it was Ward, right?

[02:02:11] Yeah.

[02:02:12] Do we give...

[02:02:13] Do we sell that or do we give it to our new mechanic so that he can stay in touch with his buddy out in the platform as well as, you know, help us out?

[02:02:24] That seems like a cost of business in my opinion.

[02:02:26] Yeah.

[02:02:27] Here's my question.

[02:02:28] Do you split the take three ways or four ways?

[02:02:31] Hey, they already said they were giving it to Sparky.

[02:02:34] I already spoke on that.

[02:02:35] Yeah.

[02:02:36] I mean, they can take it back, but...

[02:02:38] Oh, that's fine.

[02:02:39] That's fine.

[02:02:39] That'd seem like a real unfair.

[02:02:42] Like, in character, it'd be like sick.

[02:02:44] More bounty.

[02:02:45] Like, out of character.

[02:02:46] Yeah.

[02:02:47] Dick move.

[02:02:47] Yeah.

[02:02:48] Okay.

[02:02:49] So, I hope everyone enjoyed questions, comments, concerns.

[02:02:53] Oh my god.

[02:02:54] Great.

[02:02:54] I loved it.

[02:02:57] Especially that heart-wrenching ending resolution.

[02:03:02] You're, like, I'm always amazed with every game that you ever played with you here that we were running, definitely.

[02:03:08] It's just like, you're so creative and I just totally enjoy it.

[02:03:12] I didn't see this coming.

[02:03:14] I didn't see the last game.

[02:03:16] Like, you know, certain things playing out the way it did.

[02:03:18] I mean, just, yeah.

[02:03:20] Kudos, man.

[02:03:21] It was just a ton of fun.

[02:03:23] And I feel like less of a human now as a person in the real world.

[02:03:29] Thank you for the compliments.

[02:03:30] I'm sorry.

[02:03:31] You feel like less of a person.

[02:03:34] So, what was the total bounty by then when all of a sudden done with it?

[02:03:37] So, it depends on networking checks.

[02:03:40] Oh, okay.

[02:03:40] And we'll do it off the mic.

[02:03:42] Okay, cool.

[02:03:43] But it's probably going to be somewhere around, probably, if things go well, like 14 each.

[02:03:50] Something like that.

[02:03:51] Yeah.

[02:03:51] I'm still going to go hungry.

[02:03:52] And you can now develop V2 rockets as a war asset if you put in the 20 bounty for them.

[02:03:58] Yeah.

[02:03:59] I'm never going to be able to chip in, guys.

[02:04:02] Same.

[02:04:03] I have, like, I've been, like, slowly collecting.

[02:04:06] Like, I have, like, a total of three bounty right now in my bank.

[02:04:09] You can always sell your equipment and refocus your character build if you really need to.

[02:04:17] Because now, because you guys are playing new spots, so you didn't really know exactly what you were getting into.

[02:04:23] Hell, I didn't even know exactly what you were getting into.

[02:04:25] Precisely.

[02:04:26] So, yeah.

[02:04:27] If you need to change up your gear based on selling and buying it, like, I understand.

[02:04:34] You don't have to stick through and punish yourself.

[02:04:36] Okay.

[02:04:37] Anybody else have any comments for Nick?

[02:04:40] No.

[02:04:40] I'm good.

[02:04:41] Looking forward to that heist episode.

[02:04:44] Hell yeah.

[02:04:46] Hailed it.

[02:04:48] Awesome.

[02:04:49] Well, thank you all for tuning in, checking out another episode of Red Market, T-.

[02:04:56] And until next time, we'll probably see you before we see Road Salt again.

[02:05:01] Turns out that the name of this campaign was T-.

[02:05:05] Dot, dot, dot.

[02:05:06] Mars.

[02:05:09] I'm a few bars for us, Brownie, of the Sad Hulk theme as we leave here.

[02:05:14] I don't know the Sad Hulk theme.

[02:05:15] Me neither.

[02:05:16] Shit.

[02:05:16] Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.

[02:05:20] Is that it?

[02:05:21] Yeah, it works.

[02:05:23] Like, I can do wah, wah, wah, wah.

[02:05:26] I thought you knew.

[02:05:27] Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.

[02:05:31] Oh, God.

[02:05:32] Jurassic Park.

[02:05:35] I don't know.

[02:05:35] That's what I thought of when you guys were trying to hum your things.

[02:05:39] Fair.

[02:05:39] Ethan, would you like to add anything?

[02:05:40] I realize that's Jurassic Park, but.

[02:05:43] Which doesn't fit, but.

[02:05:44] Yeah.

[02:05:45] Makes it even better.

[02:05:46] Are you going to hum anything?

[02:05:48] Maybe the bass line from another one bites the dust?

[02:05:50] I mean, anything?

[02:05:51] I guess not.

[02:05:53] See you guys.

[02:05:54] Good night.

[02:05:54] Later.

[02:05:55] Bye.

[02:05:55] Bye.

[02:05:56] Bye.

[02:05:56] Bye.

[02:05:56] Bye.

[02:05:56] Bye.

[02:05:57] Bye.

[02:05:57] Bye.

[02:05:57] Bye.

[02:05:57] Thank you.
