Alright, let's go over the plan, Mike.
spk_0
Yeah, so I'll drive the car to the board.
spk_0
They have a checkpoint outside the hospital, so we'll stop, do a little tour point, and
spk_0
they should let us ride through.
spk_0
Should?
spk_0
Maybe I'll give us some shit or something.
spk_0
What's cool to talk at worst?
spk_0
Ugh, do we have to?
spk_0
I hate small talk.
spk_0
There's all these guys do all day.
spk_0
They wait for people to come along and they crap on you.
spk_0
It's very important that you laugh at their jokes.
spk_0
Is that really important?
spk_0
Very.
spk_0
Will they not let us in if we don't laugh?
spk_0
I mean, they might let you in, but they make your life a living hell for sure.
spk_0
They'll probably have us wait to be let in.
spk_0
Oh no, anything but that.
spk_0
Or, they could decide to strip searches and do a full cavity search.
spk_0
We never know these guys.
spk_0
That happen often?
spk_0
Well, fun and laugh.
spk_0
Regardless, we get through the checkpoint and head on in.
spk_0
If anyone asks, you three are converts looking to join up with the guard, and I'm your sponsor.
spk_0
You get a referral bonus if we join?
spk_0
Yes, actually.
spk_0
I won't get to cash in on it, which sucks, but whatever.
spk_0
Please try to talk to as few people as possible if you can avoid it.
spk_0
We should be able to walk around the halls without much issue once we're past the checkpoint.
spk_0
I'll talk to the guard captain about the heart and they should less us writing.
spk_0
There's should again.
spk_0
If the board is there, then there's still a chance that they won't want to meet with us.
spk_0
Or it would send a rap instead.
spk_0
We need to talk to them directly or this plan doesn't work.
spk_0
We tell one of the guards what we found and we might be robbed before you make it to the board.
spk_0
Guard captain is the only one who has no incentive to rob us.
spk_0
I thought you nights were supposed to be, I don't know, honorable.
spk_0
Y'all just steal from each other?
spk_0
Yeah, if it gets you favor with the board, absolutely.
spk_0
So we keep that under wraps until we can hand it them personally.
spk_0
How many people are on this board anyway?
spk_0
Six.
spk_0
But right now, five of them are away.
spk_0
All five?
spk_0
Yeah, they went down to New York or DC, I think.
spk_0
They've been gone for at least a month to see the Alistair or Burton still in New Hampshire.
spk_0
I forget.
spk_0
And what do we call them?
spk_0
Your Majesty or my Lord?
spk_0
My Lord, actually.
spk_0
I was joking.
spk_0
I know, but they don't take too kindly to jokes.
spk_0
These people contract as the garden fell in love with the ye old role play thing we do.
spk_0
Did they do the accents too or was that just a you thing?
spk_0
Hmm, just the guard usually.
spk_0
Awesome.
spk_0
So we meet with your Lord guy and explain to him what?
spk_0
That we jumped you and as a sign of good faith wanted to bring you back and with a token, etc., etc.
spk_0
Just tell them that we were attacked by lurkers in Vermont.
spk_0
You three came to our aid.
spk_0
In the chaos, Sir Davis was unfortunately slain and devoured.
spk_0
Shouldn't we bring his body back?
spk_0
Did he have a family or has he eaten them already?
spk_0
I'd like to bring his body back, but...
spk_0
If we bring him back and they do an autopsy, they'll see the bullets.
spk_0
We need this to go with that hitch so he's staying buried.
spk_0
Exactly.
spk_0
spk_0
We saved you, recognised your insignia and wanted to strike a deal to save her father.
spk_0
We humbly request their benevolence in this situation and want to make our family whole again.
spk_0
That about sums it up?
spk_0
It's essentially the truth for the most part.
spk_0
Cutting out our unfortunate original encounter, but yes.
spk_0
And you're sure that you're not going to try to turn us in when we arrive?
spk_0
You said it yourself. The guard likes to screw others over to get what they want.
spk_0
It might be beneficial for me to do that, yeah.
spk_0
Not a great start.
spk_0
But I swear to you that I won't.
spk_0
I just want the deal to be over and to take some simple duties guarding a truck or something.
spk_0
I think I'm done with the questing for a little bit.
spk_0
Good. Plus, if you did betray us, I'd make sure you go down with me.
spk_0
I'd take a hundred bullets just to make sure you don't get to enjoy screwing us, understand?
spk_0
Loud and clear.
spk_0
Plus, I'd help in killing you.
spk_0
I'd make sure she got to you.
spk_0
You would be on borrowed time. And not a lot of it.
spk_0
I get it. You'll kill me if I betray you.
spk_0
You want to freshen me too, Ke'er?
spk_0
No, I think they got it covered. Any closing arguments?
spk_0
Fine by me. I have a few, but I'll hold on to them for now.
spk_0
Perfect. Mike, you mind getting food ready?
spk_0
Sure. Make me do the work.
spk_0
I don't be like that. We'll be out of your hair in a few days. Enjoy it while you can.
spk_0
If that's the case, I'll be right back.
spk_0
So, what's on the menu?
spk_0
We got canned spaghetti and canned meat.
spk_0
I want to try and make bolognese.
spk_0
Sounds yummy. I'm gonna go see what I own as up to.
spk_0
Same. You finish up with the food.
spk_0
We shouldn't even start.
spk_0
You mean you didn't even start. We'll be right back. Don't eat without us.
spk_0
You could just tell me if you wanted a secret conversation.
spk_0
Don't be mad or anything.
spk_0
Kind of ruined it.
spk_0
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
spk_0
Cool.
spk_0
You done pumping?
spk_0
It's not a pump. It's a pen.
spk_0
Well, penning sounds weird.
spk_0
We wanted to talk.
spk_0
I can tell. That's why you two followed me.
spk_0
I want to know what the plan B is if things go pear-shaped.
spk_0
If this plan goes absolutely to shit, which a lot of ours do.
spk_0
I'd like us to have a backup.
spk_0
Well, this was the backup to the original.
spk_0
Yeah. And we're not going back to the original plan, right?
spk_0
Of course not.
spk_0
What was the original plan?
spk_0
Don't worry about it. But we should brainstorm an idea.
spk_0
Because if we're trapped in there and they don't want to give up your dad, we're out of options.
spk_0
We go on the chopping block.
spk_0
I know. I just can't think of any way out of that.
spk_0
Buying our freedom is what we're trying to do.
spk_0
But the only other option is shooting our way out, which is less than ideal
spk_0
after seeing how you two perform in a firefight.
spk_0
Hey, we saved you.
spk_0
From your own plan.
spk_0
Still need that spit story, by the way.
spk_0
It'll be something to look forward to if we survive.
spk_0
The thing about fighting our way out is I really doubt we're going to be allowed to keep our weapons.
spk_0
We're going to be in there unarmed.
spk_0
I have an idea.
spk_0
Down puppy, down. What's your idea?
spk_0
Okay, okay, kid.
spk_0
Do you remember the worst day to rock?
spk_0
It was a movie we saw during our shitty movie binge.
spk_0
I think we saw a lot of movies.
spk_0
Okay, whatever.
spk_0
The movie has a dude go to prison for murder he was framed for.
spk_0
But he's an ex-hitman who got out of the murdering business.
spk_0
The mob frames him, tells him he has to go to prison and kill an inmate.
spk_0
And if he can do it, he can go back to his peaceful life.
spk_0
It was not a great movie and has a really dumb plot.
spk_0
But the actors did give it their all.
spk_0
The plan, punk.
spk_0
Yes, sorry, sorry.
spk_0
In the movie he has to kill someone in the prison.
spk_0
He hides a razor blade under his tongue during inspection.
spk_0
And he uses it to carry out the hit.
spk_0
What if we did something like that?
spk_0
Carry a razor blade in our mouth to the meeting and assassinate the board guy?
spk_0
Not assassinate.
spk_0
If things go bad and we're literally out of options, we have a code word.
spk_0
And then we know to strike.
spk_0
What you're describing is assassination with a trigger.
spk_0
But I see what you mean.
spk_0
You do?
spk_0
If we're out of options, we might have to resort to violence.
spk_0
If they're gonna chop us up, then we take the board guy hostage and use him as ransom.
spk_0
In worst case scenario, we kill him.
spk_0
Whoa, where'd this kid come from?
spk_0
I was expecting you to rather we all get eaten instead of fighting back.
spk_0
Okay, I don't like this characterization that I'm this huge voice who wouldn't hurt anyone.
spk_0
I would really, really prefer if we didn't kill anyone.
spk_0
What?
spk_0
But see what happens when you don't lead with killing people?
spk_0
We get Mike helping us.
spk_0
How lucky of us.
spk_0
And this might cut without a hitch where we all walk out on skays because of it.
spk_0
Or we can all die in there.
spk_0
So, yeah, I'm down for this plan.
spk_0
Oh, really?
spk_0
Because I was just kind of spitballing, but if everybody likes the plan, I guess we can go with it.
spk_0
We don't have a razor, but we can use the Shard of Glass from one of the jars we broke.
spk_0
Punk puts it under the tongue and sneaks it in and we're in business.
spk_0
Wrap it in a leaf or something so you don't cut yourself, though.
spk_0
Oh, why is it my mouth the glass has to go into?
spk_0
I'm not going to stab a dude with glass.
spk_0
And I need to talk to the board guy to get my dad back.
spk_0
Okay, well this sounds amazingly bad ass.
spk_0
I don't think I want to be the person who does it.
spk_0
Stabbing is like super personal, shooting someone way easier.
spk_0
What if I just spit it to you?
spk_0
What does that mean?
spk_0
Like you spit the glass in my hand and I kill the guy?
spk_0
I feel like we're adding an extra step to this where things can go horribly wrong.
spk_0
Okay, but I trust I own it way more with the kill kill part of this plan way more than I trust myself.
spk_0
Oh, fine.
spk_0
Please try to leave the spit to a minimum, though, and please don't cut yourself.
spk_0
I will try my best.
spk_0
Hey guys, this spaghetti ball and nays is ready.
spk_0
One sec.
spk_0
Are we all in agreement?
spk_0
Yes.
spk_0
Hell yeah.
spk_0
Go team on three?
spk_0
No.
spk_0
Come on.
spk_0
It might be our last chance to do it.
spk_0
Fine.
spk_0
Ready?
spk_0
Go team!
spk_0
spk_0
You guys have me a team cheer without me.
spk_0
You know, part of this, Mike. Stop putting in.
spk_0
Geez.
spk_0
Sorry.
spk_0
If you're just done by the way.
spk_0
Thank you, Mike.
spk_0
We're pretty much there now.
spk_0
You can see the hospital right over there.
spk_0
The one with all the dudes swimming around it?
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
That's the guard.
spk_0
That or traitors?
spk_0
Traitors like turncoats or traitors like they're selling stuff.
spk_0
Hey, punk.
spk_0
Let's talk more glass in your mouth.
spk_0
Ah.
spk_0
Already?
spk_0
What's in their mouth?
spk_0
I said, uh, got an ass for a mouth.
spk_0
Haha.
spk_0
Nice.
spk_0
We're almost there.
spk_0
This battle work for all our sakes.
spk_0
Shush.
spk_0
We're guessing to checkpoint.
spk_0
Come on up.
spk_0
Oh, man.
spk_0
It's Tyler.
spk_0
Whatever he says.
spk_0
Don't engage.
spk_0
He's the worst.
spk_0
Hey, Tyler.
spk_0
Whoa.
spk_0
Well, well, well.
spk_0
Look who it is.
spk_0
Big Mike in the house.
spk_0
How you doing, bud?
spk_0
Fine.
spk_0
Oh, come on.
spk_0
That's all you got for me.
spk_0
How's the quest?
spk_0
Anything exciting happened?
spk_0
Wait.
spk_0
Where's Davis?
spk_0
He didn't make it Tyler.
spk_0
Are we good?
spk_0
Oh, no.
spk_0
Hey, I'm sorry, man.
spk_0
I know you two were tight.
spk_0
How are you holding up?
spk_0
I'm fine.
spk_0
Can we go?
spk_0
It's okay to hold in and now, but you should really feel these feelings.
spk_0
Who are your friends?
spk_0
Ugh.
spk_0
New recruits found them when Davis...
spk_0
You know.
spk_0
Wow.
spk_0
Nice to meet you.
spk_0
Name Tyler, checkpoint guard.
spk_0
I like him.
spk_0
What was that, pal?
spk_0
Don't worry about them.
spk_0
Bit their tongue.
spk_0
I'm Kit.
spk_0
They're Morgan and this...
spk_0
Iona.
spk_0
Iona?
spk_0
Amazing name.
spk_0
I love it.
spk_0
Well, nice to meet all of you and...
spk_0
Mike.
spk_0
Sorry, you can't about Davis.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Thanks.
spk_0
The checkpoint.
spk_0
Oh, haha.
spk_0
Duh.
spk_0
They're clear.
spk_0
Returning guard.
spk_0
I hate that guy.
spk_0
I don't know why.
spk_0
He seems pretty nice.
spk_0
Yeah, and here I thought all you guards were awful.
spk_0
Please tell me you didn't pull for his act.
spk_0
He's a snake.
spk_0
Whatever.
spk_0
Forget him.
spk_0
You three.
spk_0
You remember the plan?
spk_0
We sit here and wait.
spk_0
Exactly.
spk_0
You stay here while I speak to the guard, Captain.
spk_0
And we hold onto the heart.
spk_0
It's not that complex of a plan.
spk_0
I know.
spk_0
I'm just... whatever.
spk_0
Be back.
spk_0
Was it just me or was there sexual tension between Mike and Tyler?
spk_0
I thought it, but didn't want to say anything.
spk_0
Okay, great.
spk_0
I thought I was crazy.
spk_0
He was cool, though.
spk_0
Your leg.
spk_0
What about it?
spk_0
It's annoying.
spk_0
You're nervous.
spk_0
And you're not?
spk_0
Your nails are gone.
spk_0
They're just how it.
spk_0
We're gonna be fine.
spk_0
I know it.
spk_0
But this is crazy.
spk_0
We just wanted to go to Maine and now here we are.
spk_0
So cool, right?
spk_0
Look, you don't have to come with.
spk_0
After we had the heart, you two could have just bailed.
spk_0
They might be too late for you to back out now, but...
spk_0
You know.
spk_0
You're welcome.
spk_0
I didn't say anything.
spk_0
You didn't have to.
spk_0
We're gonna be fine.
spk_0
We grab your dad and leave here.
spk_0
You're still welcome to head off with us if you want a change of climate from New York.
spk_0
I hear you got whale critters in Maine.
spk_0
That'd be something to see.
spk_0
I've never changed one.
spk_0
When this is over, we can all go together.
spk_0
Turn on.
spk_0
They're gonna see us.
spk_0
Ready, team?
spk_0
Let's go.
spk_0
It's Lord Alistair who's presiding over this meeting today.
spk_0
The other lords of the border are away, so our chance is a good.
spk_0
Is Alistair nicer than the rest of your idiot leaders?
spk_0
Lord Alistair is more willing to trade.
spk_0
And you're not going to be able to get out of here.
spk_0
spk_0
spk_0
Just show him what we have to offer and he'll fall on over it.
spk_0
The others might not make this trade so willingly, but he'll love it.
spk_0
Also, you'll have to bow when you enter.
spk_0
Fuck no.
spk_0
I'm with them.
spk_0
I'm not bowing.
spk_0
You will if you want her dad back.
spk_0
I'll deep of a bow.
spk_0
Just something quick, quickly for bow, and don't forget the mullord.
spk_0
They eat that up.
spk_0
Ready?
spk_0
As will ever be.
spk_0
Oh, welcome my dear friends.
spk_0
I have been told by God, Captain Callum, that you've procured something of great importance
spk_0
that may only be shown to me.
spk_0
Why, I'm a busy man, but you have struck my fancy.
spk_0
Bow.
spk_0
Lord Alistair, my name is Sir Mike and I bring to you.
spk_0
Sir Mitch, was it?
spk_0
Where is your accent?
spk_0
I thought you nights loved your accents.
spk_0
Of course, my lord, slip of dye on tongue.
spk_0
Me and my partner were one of many gods' central missions to secure items of great importance.
spk_0
During our quest, we were accosted by lurkers who have had taken the life of my sworn
spk_0
shield brother.
spk_0
So, Davis.
spk_0
Ah, a shame.
spk_0
Go on.
spk_0
These brave individuals beside me came to my rescue and assisted me in slaying and procuring
spk_0
the heart of a tunneler.
spk_0
A tuddler heart, you say?
spk_0
Well, that is an amazing feat for all of you.
spk_0
Though I am burdened by the death of one of your granite knights.
spk_0
God.
spk_0
It is good to see that you have succeeded in your quest.
spk_0
Have these individuals come back to speak for themselves in hopes to join your order?
spk_0
I'd think they'd be more suited at your headquarters.
spk_0
Unless they are of worth.
spk_0
But perhaps not in the way you believe, my lord.
spk_0
The opposite, actually.
spk_0
These individuals are looking.
spk_0
I'm looking for my dad.
spk_0
Hey, Shush, it's not your time to...
spk_0
It's quite alright, Sir Mitch.
spk_0
What is your name, Miss?
spk_0
Iona.
spk_0
A gorgeous name for a beautiful girl.
spk_0
Yuck.
spk_0
Right.
spk_0
We saved your guard, Sir Mike, and were unfortunately unable to save Sir Davis.
spk_0
Something I'm sure we all deeply regret.
spk_0
We saved your guard not knowing who they were, but not long after we learned of their origin.
spk_0
The armor was a dead giveaway.
spk_0
Ah, well, are gods do love their reflectovests?
spk_0
Is that not right, Sir Mitch?
spk_0
Uh-huh.
spk_0
After we learned of his identity, I realized this was an opportunity before me.
spk_0
For your father, was it?
spk_0
Exactly.
spk_0
He was a traitor who came here often.
spk_0
As in trading resources.
spk_0
Correct?
spk_0
Yes.
spk_0
Why would he... never mind.
spk_0
Yes, he traded with the board often.
spk_0
Various pieces of weaponry, building material, whatever he could find for insulin.
spk_0
Eventually, he started running out of stuff the board wanted, and you took him in collateral.
spk_0
Did we?
spk_0
That is not usually something we do.
spk_0
Traders are meant to come here in good faith, and are treated as guests whether we want their wares or not.
spk_0
If your father could not afford the purchase, he would have simply been let free.
spk_0
Are you sure he's here?
spk_0
Positive.
spk_0
If he was taking a mistake, would you be willing to let him leave?
spk_0
If he was taken, then perhaps it was on the orders of another board member.
spk_0
An axle like that must have meaning.
spk_0
Perhaps he is working off a debt.
spk_0
Then I'd like to trade for him.
spk_0
We secured the heart of a tonneller.
spk_0
I'd like to trade it for his life and more.
spk_0
And more?
spk_0
My lady, I've not even told you I'd accept your deal for your father, and you're already looking to gain more from this.
spk_0
Yes.
spk_0
I like that.
spk_0
You got the grit of a haggler.
spk_0
Go on, wow me.
spk_0
What's your offer?
spk_0
My father, obviously.
spk_0
Of course.
spk_0
And a car, a four door with enough gas to get out of New Hampshire.
spk_0
A fair offer.
spk_0
I-
spk_0
I'm not done.
spk_0
Ehem.
spk_0
My lord.
spk_0
Along with my father in transportation, I'd like what he originally came for.
spk_0
Insulin.
spk_0
At least six months worth of it.
spk_0
Then you never see us again.
spk_0
I like you, Iona.
spk_0
May I call you, Iona?
spk_0
Uh, sure.
spk_0
Your father and the car are easy sales.
spk_0
A single man's life and a car are nothing compared to what the heart is.
spk_0
No offense meant to your father, of course.
spk_0
But the insulin.
spk_0
The insulin is a hard sell.
spk_0
Counter-offer.
spk_0
Your father, a car for you and your compatriots.
spk_0
And one month worth of insulin.
spk_0
Five months worth of it.
spk_0
One and a half.
spk_0
Four.
spk_0
You're really hung up on this whole insulin thing, aren't you?
spk_0
I need it to live.
spk_0
Of course, of course.
spk_0
I see how this is going to go.
spk_0
Three months is the most I can offer to you, child.
spk_0
And you can take the same car you arrived in.
spk_0
With my father.
spk_0
With your father.
spk_0
How does that deal, suture fancy?
spk_0
It suits me just fine.
spk_0
What's smoother than I was expecting?
spk_0
Of course, young man.
spk_0
I'm nothing if not accommodating.
spk_0
You are lucky to catch me and not my fellow board members.
spk_0
Some of them are more stringent with our assets.
spk_0
Me, on the other hand.
spk_0
I am a man of the people.
spk_0
Thank you.
spk_0
Do not mention it.
spk_0
Young.
spk_0
Goth.
spk_0
Person.
spk_0
Now, what was your father's name?
spk_0
Robert.
spk_0
Robert Lansing.
spk_0
Lansing.
spk_0
Lansing.
spk_0
Ah, here we.
spk_0
Oh.
spk_0
Oh.
spk_0
Oh, indeed.
spk_0
I'm sorry, young lady.
spk_0
But I don't believe I will be able to release your father.
spk_0
What?
spk_0
Apparently, he is a vital asset.
spk_0
That's my bad.
spk_0
I should have asked his name before making these outlandish promises.
spk_0
Oops, is the magic word.
spk_0
What does that mean?
spk_0
I'm not leaving without my father.
spk_0
We made a deal.
spk_0
And now I have to rescind, said deal.
spk_0
I'm very sorry, young lady.
spk_0
How about this?
spk_0
You can take a car and a full six month worth of insulin.
spk_0
As a way to apologize for this.
spk_0
Do you think my father's life is worth three months of insulin?
spk_0
Double the amount you were going to leave with.
spk_0
No deal.
spk_0
I want him and that's it.
spk_0
Let me see him or you don't get the heart.
spk_0
Not to split hairs, but you are in my facility.
spk_0
I could simply take the heart.
spk_0
But that would be unsportsman-like.
spk_0
We can't do this to her, we came all this way.
spk_0
I'm sorry, child.
spk_0
But I can't understand you.
spk_0
We came all this way for her father.
spk_0
Why can't he leave?
spk_0
What else do you need from us?
spk_0
It is a bit more complicated than that.
spk_0
Why is it so complicated?
spk_0
Again, the mouse thing.
spk_0
Are you okay?
spk_0
Forget them.
spk_0
Look at me.
spk_0
I'm not fucking around with you.
spk_0
Show me my father now.
spk_0
I own her.
spk_0
No, Mitch.
spk_0
It's quite alright.
spk_0
You'd like to see your father, my lady.
spk_0
You may regret this.
spk_0
I don't care.
spk_0
In that case, follow me.
spk_0
All of you.
spk_0
spk_0
spk_0
I'm sorry.
spk_0
I'm sorry.
spk_0
After you, Sermich.
spk_0
Of course.
spk_0
Down the hall to the left.
spk_0
Where are we, my lord?
spk_0
I've never gone lower than the ground floor.
spk_0
Never gone past ground.
spk_0
You wouldn't believe the crazy stuff we have down here.
spk_0
Who would blow your mind?
spk_0
Call of your minds.
spk_0
Oh yeah?
spk_0
It's this door.
spk_0
Here.
spk_0
Dad!
spk_0
Oh, my bad.
spk_0
Forgot to tell you about the glass.
spk_0
Thoughts you'd notice it.
spk_0
What is this place?
spk_0
Why is he in there?
spk_0
It's like an iron lung.
spk_0
Good.
spk_0
What the fuck?
spk_0
Are you having a stroke?
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
You're right, Morgan.
spk_0
Mm-hmm.
spk_0
You're going to have to explain this doc.
spk_0
Why is he hooked up and why can't he leave?
spk_0
Spill it.
spk_0
Fine.
spk_0
Your father is special.
spk_0
Well, he's not special.
spk_0
He's pretty below average in most medical ways.
spk_0
What I mean is he's unremarkable as a specimen,
spk_0
except for his blood.
spk_0
When he arrived, he tried to trade some silly trinkets for insulin.
spk_0
Obviously we said no, and my fellow board members were going to set him on his way.
spk_0
That was until he offered up his blood for a week's worth of insulin.
spk_0
They took pity on him, apparently.
spk_0
You weren't there?
spk_0
I was preoccupied elsewhere, but your father was special.
spk_0
His blood and his bone marrow were compatible with the project we're working on.
spk_0
One that requires the heart and scales of a tunneler.
spk_0
He was a match, and now that you brought us the heart,
spk_0
we cannot let him leave.
spk_0
That isn't an iron wall.
spk_0
No, it isn't.
spk_0
You're fucking superglowing critters into people.
spk_0
What are you on, you psycho?
spk_0
I'm with Kit here.
spk_0
Alistair.
spk_0
What is this?
spk_0
This is above your pay grade, Brave Knight.
spk_0
All you need to know is that her father is an important part of what comes next.
spk_0
He's an important part of what the board is working towards.
spk_0
Which is what?
spk_0
Sending the critters back to whatever hell they crawled out of.
spk_0
I'm sorry, young lady, but this is what must be done to save this world.
spk_0
My lady.
spk_0
Ayauna.
spk_0
Sure, right?
spk_0
Um, Aya?
spk_0
Punk?
spk_0
Yeah?
spk_0
Ah, ah, ah, ah.
spk_0
Spit.
spk_0
What?
spk_0
What are you doing?
spk_0
spk_0
Why are you spitting into her hand?
spk_0
Ayauna?
spk_0
Plangie.
