Hello?
Speaker A:What time is it?
Speaker B:Who is it?
Speaker B:I don't know.
Speaker A:I.
Speaker B:Situation Dream Gold Mongoose.
Speaker A:Sorry honey, I have to take this.
Speaker B:Yeah, we're coming back to our wonderful agents of Cell R and we're going to indulge in the Delta Green home scene, which is a short vignette that's pretty, pretty well structured by the new rules.
Speaker B:Tells us exactly what the agent or agents have been up to in between operations.
Speaker B:It's an opportunity to recover some sanity or pay attention to their loved ones and their personal life and professional lives.
Speaker B:Or it's maybe a way to stay on the case, keep going, dive deeper, for better or for worse.
Speaker B:But before we get into that, with each one of our agents last operation we ended up seeing Agent Relic in a hospital bed.
Speaker B:I think we'll.
Speaker B:We'll begin with exactly what that looks like now, weeks, maybe months later.
Speaker B:The sky is a bruised purple, smattered with wisps of fast moving cirrus that twist and break across it like ocean surf.
Speaker B:David Burton is finally comfortable.
Speaker B:The wooden chair creaks a bit whenever he readjusts, but otherwise the night is filled only with the clacks and calls of cicadas filling the tree branches below.
Speaker B:He's still not used to it, the arm being gone that is, and he set his drink on his left side, out of habit.
Speaker B:David picks up the glass now, takes a sip.
Speaker B:He watches the eerie orange smile along the western horizon dimly pulse, reflecting off the swiftly moving clouds above.
Speaker B:Sometimes the forest burns, and if his colleagues do their job, it's a good thing.
Speaker B:It's a chance for regrowth, change, transformation.
Speaker B:David takes another sip.
Speaker B:His phone again placed on his left side, out of habit, begins to buzz, cutting through the night's uneasy tranquility.
Speaker B:It's that phone.
Speaker B:Not the one his daughter sometimes calls to check up on him.
Speaker B:He watches it vibrate on the wooden table next to him, letting it ring and ring without fully realizing it.
Speaker B:David relents and picks it up before he can think better of it.
Speaker B:Relic, this is Snedeker.
Speaker B:We're putting together El Sal, a couple of medtechs and a black bag op that did some CIA work in Afghanistan.
Speaker B:Do you think you can meet them in Anchorage in two days?
Speaker A:Run support?
Speaker B:They.
Speaker B:They need a handler.
Speaker C:You.
Speaker C:You want me to take your job, Snedeker?
Speaker C:What, losing a limb gets me a star by my name?
Speaker B:Something like that.
Speaker B:They need someone running intel while they are out hunting.
Speaker B:Someone who can piece together a briefing for them and be aligned to Asel I'm asking you again, are you able to do this?
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker C:Yeah, I'll do it.
Speaker B:Good.
Speaker B:I'm gonna send you a number.
Speaker B:It's your connect to the Director of Operations.
Speaker B:That's Mannon.
Speaker B:He'll get you the info and set you up with a comms package.
Speaker B:You'll be working out of a safe house.
Speaker B:David hears the click.
Speaker B:The chair creaks, groans loudly as he stands up.
Speaker B:The horizon.
Speaker B:Now it seems to burn brighter.
Speaker B:Right, that's our little send off for Agent Relic.
Speaker C:Goodbye, Agent Relic.
Speaker C:My gosh.
Speaker B:For now that was.
Speaker C:I can't tell.
Speaker C:I mean the character started out almost as a joke when I was like, I'm gonna play a park ranger, let's do that.
Speaker C:And yeah, like over.
Speaker C:I don't know how many games, I just kept throwing them into like the most dangerous situations.
Speaker C:And whenever it came down, the roles always seem to work out.
Speaker C:So there you go.
Speaker D:Until they didn't.
Speaker B:Until they didn't.
Speaker B:Yep, that's how it is.
Speaker B:Amber, introduce yourself.
Speaker B:Let us know who you're playing and what has your agent been up to and what do they do when they receive the missive from the program.
Speaker E:So I'm Amber, playing Agent Roizen.
Speaker E:Since we last saw our team, Roizen has been back at Camp Peary doing some more training, off and on with new recruits mostly.
Speaker E:Occasionally she gets a team of older agents looking to learn a little more about the Middle East.
Speaker E:That being said, in her downtime, she's been digging through all those fun photos she took at Wild out there stuff and looking deeper into the contents of the laptop she appropriated from Jeff Jenkins.
Speaker B:So it sounds like she's continuing the investigation.
Speaker E:Yeah.
Speaker B:Cool.
Speaker B:So staying on the case means you're going to reduce any non delta green bond by one and potentially gain some sanity back.
Speaker B:Now you're going to either roll criminology, the occult, but I'll need to go ahead and roll that for you, so I'll do that now.
Speaker E:I mean they're the same, so it's not going to matter.
Speaker B:So reading through the materials that Jeff had on his laptop, no matter how many times you revisit these photocopied of photocopies, these digital artifact filled representations of.
Speaker B:Of something that looks like an aged and damaged manuscript.
Speaker B:Well, no matter how many times you reread it, it just doesn't make sense.
Speaker B:It doesn't at one point sounds like the ramblings of someone who was involved with some sort of otherworldly congress with a strange entity he kept in his basement that spoke to him in his dreams.
Speaker B:Sometimes, though, it.
Speaker B:It sounds like it's about a dream that someone had of this.
Speaker B:This surreal encounter.
Speaker B:And before long, you.
Speaker B:You have a difficult time really piecing together the narrative at all.
Speaker B:It seems to flow into itself and then, well, become a meta narrative of what it's trying to.
Speaker B:To tell you.
Speaker B:Honestly, it.
Speaker B:It's become this very confusing enigma for you where you do tend to want to revisit it often.
Speaker B:It's unsettling, it's disturbing text, but there's something about it.
Speaker B:There's something familiar now and comforting even every time you return your attention to it.
Speaker B:It always has something new for you.
Speaker B:In times when you feel stressed out, well, it's something to go to, to calm your nerves.
Speaker D:Ew.
Speaker E:Wow.
Speaker E:This should make for some interesting points in the future.
Speaker B:Yeah, you're a big fan as far as the photos that you took.
Speaker B:You're hit with kind of pangs of regret as you could look through them.
Speaker B:They look pretty interesting.
Speaker B:You would have loved to have put your hands on them before the entire building was reduced to cinders as you.
Speaker B:You four retreated away from.
Speaker B:From the burning, burning fires that you set.
Speaker B:One was a small vial of a white liquid under a glass case.
Speaker B:You see the label says real blood from a Zeta reticulum.
Speaker B:Another was a large crustacean that looks like it had been carefully painted with a preserving enamel partially damaged.
Speaker B:But the label on that was colorfully set as found in the stomach of an unlucky soul, what might be hitching a free ride right now with you.
Speaker B:You also saw and took a picture of a few slivers of quartz gems.
Speaker B:The plaque there read alien energy crystals might still work, but the item that you're, well, mostly interested in, and again, regretful that you'll never get to examine it further, was a strange tarot card in a sleeve.
Speaker B:The artistic detail didn't get picked up too well with your phone, but was obviously quite intricate.
Speaker B:It was titled Le Imperrection.
Speaker B:Figure depicted, there is a hunched yellow hooded man holding a mask in front of his face.
Speaker B:The mask appears to have long horns emanating from the eye sockets.
Speaker B:The man's also wearing a crown and appears to be judging the viewer.
Speaker B:It reminds you of something.
Speaker B:And this is.
Speaker B:This is a photo that you have up and next to you whenever you're reading the photocopied pages of monsters and their kind copied from Jeff Jenkins laptop.
Speaker B:You're back in a sort of rhythm, though just a newly added melody of research into strange things you discovered.
Speaker B:Before long Perhaps weeks later, you do receive a missive from the program.
Speaker B:We won't read it just yet, but you know that you're being called back into the field to Detroit, Michigan.
Speaker B:Tell me how Roizen reacts, responds, prepares, and inevitably makes her way.
Speaker E:The good news is, being on loan, it's a lot easier for Roizen to adjust her schedule and take off than it likely is for her other teammates.
Speaker E:So she'll contact the people she's organizing classes with, let them know she'll be off base for the next 2ish weeks, visiting some family friends who flew into the country on a surprise, pack up her backpack, throw a few extra things in after the last opera that she has discovered she probably needs and set.
Speaker B:Off any hints what that might be.
Speaker E:Definitely extra earplugs.
Speaker E:She would like to not be the only one with hearing at the end of this.
Speaker E:And she really isn't interested in learning American Sign Language on top of all the other languages she already spoke.
Speaker E:Speaks.
Speaker B:Gotcha.
Speaker B:That's very kind of you.
Speaker B:Cause they're gonna need it.
Speaker E:Good little self preserving there.
Speaker B:My random number generator tells me that.
Speaker B:Michael, it's your turn.
Speaker B:Can you introduce yourself, let us know what your agent's been up to?
Speaker F:Yes, I am Michael.
Speaker F:My agent is Agent Ryan.
Speaker F:He.
Speaker F:In discovering his dental enhancements for lack of a.
Speaker B:Remind us of what?
Speaker B:What that.
Speaker B:Remind us what that was?
Speaker F:Yeah.
Speaker F:Waking up in the.
Speaker F:Or getting checked out in the hospital at the same time that Agent Relic did.
Speaker F:The nurse pointed out that he seemed to have an extra set of teeth.
Speaker B:Oh yeah.
Speaker F:Along his.
Speaker F:His gum line there.
Speaker F:And in a degree of denial, goes home, goes to sleep.
Speaker F:But the fear and terror is reconfirmed the next morning.
Speaker F:So he goes to his desk and fishes out a phone that's got a little bit of dust across it from the bottom drawer and turns it on for the first time in a very long time, dials a number that he has memorized.
Speaker F:When the phone is answered, he tells the gentleman that he needs a dentist.
Speaker F:Unusual request.
Speaker F:Do you want to do a role.
Speaker B:Play that I don't think we need to.
Speaker F:Okay.
Speaker B:I think what we'll say is, is you make this phone call.
Speaker B:It's a number to a network that you've utilized before.
Speaker B:You make your request and the phone disconnects and you were called back after 20 minutes.
Speaker B:And you are told that you will have a caller at the address of your choosing.
Speaker B:And discretion is appreciated.
Speaker B:You actually arrange to have this caller come to your private residence.
Speaker B:Before long, you're sitting in one of Your comfortable chairs dozing off when a well, well kept individual looms over you.
Speaker B:Placing a mask from a mobile nitrous oxide tank over your nose and mouth.
Speaker B:And yeah, you undergo dental surgery to have a correction.
Speaker B:Now you are told by this specialist that it will never be the same there on the left side of your face, but he will at least ensure that you will have no speaking limitations and also ensure that it heals up well.
Speaker B:He tells you that you will need follow up surgeries potentially however.
Speaker B:And he gives you his card.
Speaker B:Anything else that Agent Ryan does in his time?
Speaker F:Agent Ryan continues on life as usual.
Speaker F:You know, doesn't.
Speaker B:Okay.
Speaker F:Yeah.
Speaker F:Yeah.
Speaker B:So you're fulfilling your responsibilities.
Speaker F:I was actually thinking of this as would the dental surgery not be indulging a personal motivation.
Speaker B:What's the motivation you're indulging?
Speaker F:Getting my teeth fixed.
Speaker B:Actually you have motivations on your character sheet that keep you running.
Speaker B:Now if one of them is dental perfection, then yeah, I forgot about.
Speaker B:So you've got uncovering the mystery behind your father's death, protecting your mother, building your wealth and autonomy and removing obstacles that are in your way.
Speaker B:Such as a pastor.
Speaker F:I do like the idea of indulging a personal motivation, but I don't think I'd like to do that kind of based off of the previous mission.
Speaker F:And I can't think of anything off of the previous mission that would I do that.
Speaker F:One of the other things I would like to do though is a special training motivated by injury and you know, inability to get out unscathed.
Speaker F:That's kind of be it ego or whatever it might be motivated Agent Ryan to improve his skills.
Speaker F:Like it, like it like a agility slash awareness sort of.
Speaker F:I don't speed.
Speaker B:Sure.
Speaker F:So that kind of lane.
Speaker B:Maybe I think like I think the.
Speaker B:What you're trying.
Speaker B:What you would like to do here is dodge.
Speaker B:So that's actually improving a skill.
Speaker F:Yeah.
Speaker B:What that means is you are actually probably going to go to an aikido class or two, learn from a master.
Speaker F:Right, Right.
Speaker B:And reduce a non delta green bond by one.
Speaker B:And you'll have a chance to increase your dodge by a certain amount.
Speaker B:That's.
Speaker B:That's kind of how that would work.
Speaker F:Yeah, I'd like to do that then.
Speaker B:And Roy and I did forget to.
Speaker B:To have you decrease one of your.
Speaker B:Your bonds by one.
Speaker B:So if you wouldn't mind taking care of that while we continue with Ryan for me.
Speaker E:Certainly.
Speaker B:So Ryan, which bond would you like to reduce?
Speaker F:I just did on my character sheet.
Speaker F:I did my childhood Friend.
Speaker B:Excellent.
Speaker F:Abdurahmon Hammad.
Speaker B:So Abdurahmon didn't get that.
Speaker B:That Thursday call that he's used to or something like that?
Speaker F:I'm busy, bud.
Speaker F:Sorry, man.
Speaker B:Yeah, well, he takes it personally, so.
Speaker B:So cool.
Speaker B:So let's.
Speaker B:Let's see how you do here.
Speaker B:Go ahead and roll your dodge for me, please.
Speaker B:Okay.
Speaker B:Since you succeeded, there's no effect.
Speaker B:So even though you're really focusing on this skill, focusing on this skill and learning as best as you can, you haven't made any progress in this short time between operations.
Speaker F:That's hilarious.
Speaker D:Now, while you've meta.
Speaker D:Not gained any skill, you now have some understanding of Aikido, and therefore maybe you think you're a little better than you are.
Speaker F:Right?
Speaker F:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker E:Terrible fun.
Speaker B:Misplaced confidence is what you currently have.
Speaker B:Okay, when Ryan does receive this electronic missive, better known as an email.
Speaker B:Why am I saying electronic missive, better known as an email that is obviously from the program and telling him that he needs to be in Detroit, what.
Speaker B:How does he respond?
Speaker B:How does he deal with this?
Speaker B:Personal life, professional life, etc.
Speaker F:Yep.
Speaker F:So he's on.
Speaker F:On the personal front, just as he was sort of with the first mission.
Speaker F:He's a bit of a lone wolf in that way.
Speaker F:And again, his assistant, Chloe is used to handling his schedule.
Speaker F:So he gives her a call letting her know that he'll be gone for at a minimum of the following week.
Speaker F:And we'll check in to let her know if that leave is going to be extended and to handle work, barring anything urgent.
Speaker F:And then does his normal kind of packing go bag.
Speaker F:And then asks her to set up a.
Speaker F:A charter for.
Speaker F:For Detroit.
Speaker B:Chloe, in typical Chloe fashion, gets this done extremely quickly, the highest competence, and you're out on the next first class flight, hopefully to arrive well before you need to.
Speaker B:Eric, would you like to introduce yourself?
Speaker B:Tell us about the.
Speaker B:Well, tell us the agent that you're playing.
Speaker B:And.
Speaker B:And let's.
Speaker B:Let's talk about that home scene.
Speaker D:My name is Eric Lundberg and I'm playing Romeo.
Speaker D:He's an agent with the FBI for.
Speaker B:Now until he gets inevitably fired for all that hooky.
Speaker B:All that hooky.
Speaker B:That's right.
Speaker B:Cool.
Speaker B:So what.
Speaker B:What is.
Speaker B:How does he spend his time when Aaron returns home?
Speaker D:He kisses his wife, Jenna, kisses his child, Stacy, giving her a coloring book he grabbed at the airport.
Speaker D:He makes up an excuse for why he's home earlier than planned.
Speaker D:The AC at the convention hall went out, so the whole thing got canceled and put off tbd.
Speaker D:Aaron makes his way to his office in the back of the house and checks that the hair that he placed in his secret compartment has not been moved and stows his operation gear.
Speaker D:As he exits the closet, Jenna inquires how the training went otherwise.
Speaker D:Oh, it was terrible, boring, procedural, and I don't know why I was selected for it.
Speaker D:I just want to sleep for the week since bureaucratically I have the time off anyways.
Speaker D:He then tears his clothes off, down to his undershirt and briefs and lays face down on the bed, falling asleep almost immediately.
Speaker D:Aaron dreams of darkness and the things that move like lightning within his dreams of pursuit and being pursued, of great mouths filled with teeth that gnash and gnaw in the dark.
Speaker D:When the horrible maw finds his neck, he jolts awake, panting, covered in a thick sheen of sweat.
Speaker D:He looks to his wife and sees she wasn't disturbed by the sudden movements.
Speaker D:Aaron makes his way into the kitchen, fetching a glass of water from the fridge spout and sees a crayon picture Stacy made attached by a magnet.
Speaker D:It depicts a stick figure drawing of mom, dad and me in front of a house with a smiling sun and waving flowers.
Speaker D:He stares at it, forgetting his water for what feels like ages.
Speaker D:This is why he does what he does.
Speaker D:The simple purity of this drawing, of all the innocence this world still holds.
Speaker D:It's all the reason he needs to keep going.
Speaker D:Aaron resolves to put himself back into living as best he can and compartmentalize the horrors he deals with for Delta Green.
Speaker D:He'll thrust himself into his life and work until otherwise called to action again.
Speaker D:And that's going to play out as fulfilling his responsibilities.
Speaker B:Roll your sanity.
Speaker B:Okay, well, unfortunately it's all too soon when Agent Romeo receives an email, obviously from someone in the program who is summoning him to Detroit, Michigan.
Speaker B:How does he get out of this one?
Speaker D:Yeah, how.
Speaker D:How soon is it?
Speaker B:Or how.
Speaker B:How does he commit?
Speaker B:I would say this is several weeks later.
Speaker B:Yeah, he's had some time to settle back into the routine.
Speaker D:Sure.
Speaker D:Okay, he's gonna.
Speaker D:He's gonna go to his boss and say he's just gotten off the phone with his wife, there's been a death in her family and he needs to take some time off for bereavement.
Speaker B:Got it.
Speaker B:Go ahead and roll your this time.
Speaker B:Roll your bureaucracy, please.
Speaker F:His what?
Speaker F:Chris?
Speaker D:Chrissy.
Speaker D:Brie rockercity.
Speaker F:How many Rs?
Speaker D:I don't know.
Speaker B:Well, my notes say there are 12 Rs, so I tried my my best.
Speaker D:Pronounced it perfect reading the hypergeometric interpretation of bureaucracy.
Speaker F:Hypergeometric.
Speaker D:Okay, here goes.
Speaker D:Bureaucracy.
Speaker D:It is a tough one and that's a fail.
Speaker B:I see that.
Speaker F:I see that it's not very bureaucratic of you.
Speaker B:Your request is granted.
Speaker B:Pretty quickly you go ahead and let your family know that you're back, back in the situation where you need to attend a follow up training.
Speaker B:And hopefully this time it'll only be two to three days but you'll, you'll let them know if it might be longer.
Speaker B:So John, you don't have to tell us too much about Lenny Hargrave really.
Speaker B:We'll discover much about him during the course of the game.
Speaker B:I would like you to set the scene where Lyney is and what he's doing when he receives a missive from the program.
Speaker B:Now he has worked with agents from the program before.
Speaker B:Every time he's been brought on as a what they call specialized talent or a more, more colloquially a friendly to the program.
Speaker B:And typically this means he gets some free meals, free flight and he gets to kind of show off all the esoteric weird stuff that he has stuffed in his head that nobody else cares about.
Speaker B:It's actually an exhilarating time for him.
Speaker B:He does receive this email and I'll ask you again if you wouldn't mind at some point reading it for our lovely audience.
Speaker B:But, but yeah, where, where is he when he gets this?
Speaker B:What is he up to and how does he manage to extract himself from his personal life in order to get out into the field?
Speaker C:Yeah, so my name's John and this season I'll be playing Lenny Hargrave.
Speaker C:Friendly.
Speaker C:He is a 39 year old senior conservation scientist who works at the Getty Museum in Los Angeles.
Speaker C:But mostly he spends a lot of time kind of buried down in some of the sub basements of the museum.
Speaker C:That's where his office is located.
Speaker C:Toiling away on some of the weirder, weirder aspects.
Speaker C:He's often forgotten, overlooked but for him that's just fine.
Speaker C:So occasionally when he does get a call it's pretty straightforward for him to put in a request saying hey, I've got a consultation gig at this other museum in another city.
Speaker C:Colleague has reached out and asked for some help in the field based on his, you know, typical results.
Speaker C:Usually those things are granted, he'll often burn bto.
Speaker C:He doesn't use it for anything else.
Speaker C:He usually has enough and they've been fine granting that from time to time.
Speaker F:Have you been to the Getty, John?
Speaker C:I haven't.
Speaker C:I would love to visit it.
Speaker C:But I haven't been there.
Speaker F:No, dude, it's sick.
Speaker F:This is awesome.
Speaker C:I've never been to Los Angeles and I'm playing a guy who's grown up and lived there his entire life, so we'll figure it out.
Speaker B:This is another situation where Michael has firsthand experience, so he will meticulously correct you, pedantically lecture you on all the things you've gotten wrong.
Speaker C:Please do.
Speaker F:I've lived in Detroit as well, Chris, so you better not fuck this next one up.
Speaker B:Oh, you lived in Detroit too?
Speaker F:No, I'm.
Speaker F:I'm just kidding.
Speaker F:I am kidding.
Speaker F:I am kidding.
Speaker F:I have been to Detroit.
Speaker F:I was about to throw out a couple restaurant names, but I decided not to be that much of a dick about it.
Speaker C:Although I think it's pronounced Detroit.
Speaker C:Right?
Speaker B:It's Detroit.
Speaker B:So, yeah.
Speaker B:Lenny receives an email that is for him a bright flashing sign.
Speaker B:He knows this is coming from that, well, that group within the government that he has worked for from time to time that he can't say anything about to anybody.
Speaker B:He feels apprehension and exhilaration all at once.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker C:So one.
Speaker C:One morning he gets in during his cup of coffee, pops up in his.
Speaker C:His email and finds email titled New Detroit Stars Emerge, exclamation mark.
Speaker C:Odd one.
Speaker C:So he pops it open and read, starts reading.
Speaker C:Good morning, fellow patron of the art.
Speaker C:You are cordially invited to attend a night out at the Detroit Michigan Opera House.
Speaker C:Our friend Steve Bourne will be awaiting your arrival.
Speaker C: -: Speaker C:The acts in this opera are very similar to a previous opera authored by a person of great interest, Jeffrey Jenkins.
Speaker C:Can you find any common themes between the first act and the latter acts?
Speaker C:If you don't like the music, feel free to stop the production as a spread of such material could be harmful to the arts.
Speaker C:Regards A.
Speaker C:Griffin.
Speaker C:And his first thoughts are, you know, as he's initially reading, he says, I don't know anyone at the Detroit Michigan Opera.
Speaker C:But as he continues through the email, he starts realizing that this is a strange email and that this is clearly from the organization that has called him in the past.
Speaker C:And he also immediately types in the name Jeffrey Jenkins into Google to see what comes back.
Speaker B:Well, a lot comes back without further context.
Speaker B:Nothing really piques his interest or sticks out as.
Speaker B:As anything interesting, unfortunately.
Speaker C:Well, at that point, he walks over to his boss's office and kind of awkwardly says, hey, I've been.
Speaker C:I've been asked to go consult at a friend's or colleague's museum in Detroit.
Speaker C:I'll need to leave pretty soon.
Speaker C:Will that be an issue?
Speaker C:Will there be any problems with that?
Speaker B:Roll your bureaucracy?
Speaker C:Oh, super failed.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:So it actually takes a bit of time in you working around what is a pretty packed schedule.
Speaker B:There's a new exhibit opening that you actually had a pretty well important role in.
Speaker B:And yeah, it's, it's, it's definitely not.
Speaker B:It becomes very clear that there's a little passive aggression there as you both try to work to get someone to cover some of the things that you were going to take charge of.
Speaker B:By the time you're leaving the museum that night, you're kind of playing back through some of that interaction in your head and you really don't think that went well.
Speaker B:But you do have the time off.
Speaker C:Cool.
Speaker B:So each one of you has arranged for your own transportation to Detroit.
Speaker B:I think for all of you, this means by plane, though, correct me if I'm wrong, is anybody driving in or taking a train or a bus, greyhound ride?
Speaker D:48 hour trip.
Speaker B:Yep, yep, yep.
Speaker D:No plane.
Speaker E:Froisin's actually gonna take the train.
Speaker B:Okay.
Speaker B:So getting that Amtrak ticket and in heading your way in, well, that works just fine.
Speaker B:As each one of you is arranging and packing and preparing and inevitably boarding your transport vessel, you have an opportunity to wait, to use the contact phone number that you received or to call it immediately.
Speaker B:I'll let each one of you.
Speaker B:Let me know what your agent does.
Speaker F:Do you want to call us an order or just talk?
Speaker B:Yeah, just talk.
Speaker F:So when Ryan lands, he makes his way to hotel downtown, a very nice hotel downtown, and is, is eager about getting started.
Speaker F:So he go goes ahead and calls the number as soon as he's settled in his room.
Speaker B:Well, it picks up after beep, beep.
Speaker F:Beep, beep, beep, beep.
Speaker B:After one minute, that was him dialing.
Speaker B:And the voice is one you've never heard before.
Speaker B:Thank you though, for the Foley work.
Speaker B:I'm gonna definitely get your help on post.
Speaker B:I didn't realize we had such a talent in the room.
Speaker F:Yeah, I'll let you know if I'm available.
Speaker B:Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll call you.
Speaker D:Check him on fiverr.
Speaker B:We'll figure something out.
Speaker B:We'll figure something out.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Voice you've never heard before.
Speaker A:Hello?
Speaker F:Hello, this is Ryan.
Speaker A:Ah, got it.
Speaker A:One second.
Speaker B:Here's some fumbling around.
Speaker B:The voice is now closer to the receiver, as if, as if the gentleman's being conspiratorial with his, his, his own phone.
Speaker A:Yeah, we're gonna meet at The Michigan State Crime Laboratory.
Speaker B:You familiar?
Speaker F:Ryan pulls his phone away, does a quick search on that.
Speaker F:The one on Park Avenue or whatever.
Speaker F:You know what I mean?
Speaker B:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker F:Did you look up where it is, Chris?
Speaker B:Do we have an actual address we could.
Speaker F:I mean the one on such and such a street?
Speaker A:Yeah, it's under renovations right now.
Speaker A:Come to the back rear access door tomorrow, hours of 8 and 11.
Speaker A:We're just gonna wait for everybody to arrive, and then we'll.
Speaker A:We'll talk.
Speaker F:Do you need me to bring anything?
Speaker A:I don't think you'll need anything.
Speaker A:If you want to bring me maybe an energy drink or something, I'd appreciate it.
Speaker F:Sure.
Speaker F:See you there.
Speaker B:He hangs up.
Speaker B:I assume my other agents are going to call the same number.
Speaker D:Oh, yeah.
Speaker E:Yep.
Speaker B:Excellent.
Speaker C:I will say, yes, Lenny does.
Speaker C:When he lands, he calls a number.
Speaker B:The voice is the same gruff cigarette, stretched rasp that answered for Agent Ryan.
Speaker B:Without going through each one of these conversations separately, is there anything, any agent asks that Ryan didn't, that they would like to elicit from this person?
Speaker D:Can you tell me more about Steve Bourne?
Speaker D:Is that you?
Speaker A:Yeah, that's me.
Speaker A:I'm.
Speaker A:I'm Dr.
Speaker A:Bourne.
Speaker D:Good, good, good.
Speaker D:And Dr.
Speaker D:Bourne, how.
Speaker D:Are you familiar with Jeffrey Jenkins?
Speaker A:We can talk about that when.
Speaker A:When the whole crew sets up and gets here tomorrow?
Speaker D:Sure.
Speaker D:All right.
Speaker D:Okay.
Speaker D:That'll do.
Speaker B:All right.
Speaker A:Bring me an energy drink or two.
Speaker A:Really need the picture.
Speaker D:These things are really bad for your heart.
Speaker D:Are you sure?
Speaker A:I'm a doctor?
Speaker D:Ph.D.
Speaker D:yeah.
Speaker E:Doctor of what?
Speaker F:Yeah.
Speaker D:Clown College.
Speaker B:Double PhD.
Speaker B:Do any other agents or friendlies ask Dr.
Speaker B:Boren.
Speaker B:Anything?
Speaker B:In addition to where and when and.
Speaker E:Who Roisin would have been making this call from the train, so she's going to say as little as possible.
Speaker B:Got it.
Speaker B:Very much all business.
Speaker B:Roisin?
Speaker B:I think that's her M.O.
Speaker B:at this point.
Speaker E:Pretty much, yeah.
Speaker B:Anything else I need to know or any other information that your agents would ask of.
Speaker B:Of this gentleman?
Speaker B:Before we switch to that scene, I.
Speaker F:Think Agent Ryan should have inquired a little bit more into Bourne's idea.
Speaker D:Nice.
Speaker B:Agreed.
Speaker B:He should have.
Speaker F:But he'll let it be.
Speaker F:He'll let it be.
Speaker B:He's never heard that one before.
Speaker B:He would have chuckled.
Speaker B:It would have been a sensible chuckle.
Speaker B:So, the large facility that is the Michigan State Crime Laboratory.
Speaker B:It's obviously home to many different law enforcement offices as well as medical offices.
Speaker B:It's something that would typically be bustling day and night.
Speaker B:However, it's clear that the recent renovations going on as each one of you arrives.
Speaker B:All that construction has dampened this typical activity at the site.
Speaker B:Honestly, the large complex seems rather abandoned.
Speaker B:Plastic sheeting flutters in the night wind next to equipment and several aerial work platforms that are jutting out of various faces of the large, stocky building.
Speaker B:One by one you find your contact waiting for you at the rear access door in the parking lot behind the structure.
Speaker B:He's standing there, leaning against the wall, surrounded by spent cigarette butts.
Speaker B:Seems to be fumbling to light another as you approach.
Speaker B:He doesn't see much until all four of you are standing there in a semicircle facing him.
Speaker B:He asks that you just wait for everyone to get here, enjoy the night air for now, and says, silence can be golden.
Speaker D:Romeo silently pulls out a Four Loko and hands it to him.
Speaker B:He nods appreciatively.
Speaker B:That you found such a relic that I guess those are sold now, I think the alcohol.
Speaker D:Fruit.
Speaker B:The recipe changed and it's.
Speaker B:Yeah, yeah, it has no more alcohol, right?
Speaker B:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker B:Does.
Speaker B:Is this like.
Speaker B:Is this like a collector's item without a hole?
Speaker D:No, he's just got.
Speaker D:He stopped at a corner store, picked up a grape one.
Speaker D:You know, grape.
Speaker A:The worst.
Speaker B:The worst possible flavor.
Speaker B:Got it.
Speaker B:He looks at it.
Speaker B:He kind of grimaces a little bit and sets it down on the.
Speaker B:On the ground next to his left shoe.
Speaker D:Aaron just nods sadly.
Speaker D:I mean, Romeo just nods sadly.
Speaker C:Hold on.
Speaker C:Which.
Speaker C:Which of the illustrious brands of energy drinks was he hoping for?
Speaker D:Obviously Monster.
Speaker B:Well, it's apparent.
Speaker B:Yeah, that one was not.
Speaker B:Not the one for him.
Speaker D:Listener.
Speaker D:I can only describe this man as haunting and also haunted.
Speaker B:Yeah, actually, I'll go ahead and describe him.
Speaker B:That's what y'all.
Speaker B:That's what y'all pay me for.
Speaker B:Stephen Bourne defines grizzled.
Speaker B:His weathered face speaks of heavy drinking, chain smoking, and stress.
Speaker B:He has an unkempt shock of black hair with abrupt streaks of gray.
Speaker B:It seems like he last attended to it, maybe with the aid of a blind, thumbless barber.
Speaker B:He is wearing a pristine lab coat, and without it, you four would probably mistake him for a vagrant.
Speaker B:His eyes are narrowed, slits haunted.
Speaker B:He looks as though he's peered beyond familiar truths.
Speaker B:As each one of you arrives, he does politely offer you a cigarette and a light.
Speaker B:Does anybody take him up on this?
Speaker D:No, Brian does not.
Speaker E:Royson passes, but she offers him a donut from the box she's carrying.
Speaker B:He seems very appreciative of that and takes hefty bites out of the donut, the pastry as he takes puffs of his newly lit cigarette, Lenny, you're the last one to arrive and as you step into this, as I described, a semicircle facing this grizzled man, you look around and realize you, well, don't know anybody here.
Speaker B:There's nobody from, well, the, the last couple of groups that you consulted for and you shore yourself up a little bit.
Speaker D:Hey, look at the new kid.
Speaker C:Hi.
Speaker C:Hi.
Speaker C:Yeah, my name is.
Speaker C:My name's Lenny.
Speaker C:I was called in, I think to help you all out with.
Speaker C:Well, they didn't really tell me what but something I could do.
Speaker D:Yeah.
Speaker D:John Romeo.
Speaker D:He thrusts out his hand and shakes yours, clasping his other hand on your shoulder as he does so.
Speaker C:Yeah, good to meet you.
Speaker E:So Roizen steps up.
Speaker E:I'm Roizen.
Speaker E:Would you like a donut?
Speaker C:Sure.
Speaker C:Yeah, sure.
Speaker A:The jelly ones are pretty good, says.
Speaker B:The lab coat covered man.
Speaker A:Well, now that we're all here, he.
Speaker B:Takes one last swallow.
Speaker A:I've never cared much for opera.
Speaker A:Too much drama, too much bloodshed, too much agony.
Speaker A:I guess the show goes on whether we watch it or not.
Speaker A:Till that fat lady wakes up and sings.
Speaker A:Just go ahead and get this started.
Speaker B:He grimaces, looks down and spins on his heel, Flashes a badge across a nearby maglock, opens the rear door.
Speaker B:He holds it open for you to enter and you four cautiously file through.
Speaker B:Dr.
Speaker B:Bourne guides you through fluorescent lit halls into a medical storage room.
Speaker B:It's quite cramped in here.
Speaker B:It's buttressed by tall metal shelves that are stacked with plastic bags and containers, some marked with biohazard symbols.
Speaker B:When he speaks, he allows an unlit cigarette to cling to his lip.
Speaker A:We're here because our bosses pegged me for another fucked up autopsy.
Speaker A:Happens every couple of months in this hellhole apparently.
Speaker A:Lots of weird shit pokes up its head or what have you around here.
Speaker A:Keeps me busy.
Speaker A:I'd moved to some quiet little cabin in the woods, but I've been encouraged to sit tight, just wait for these midnight phone calls from computer generated voices telling me to serve my goddamn country.
Speaker B:Takes a long breath.
Speaker A:Anyway, apparently this one was a friend of someone else.
Speaker A:They'd been watching.
Speaker A:Otherwise the cadaver would have been carved up by some second year med student.
Speaker A:This whole thing would have been forgotten in a couple of days after the next.
Speaker B:Mutilated corpse washes up near Grosse Point, turns to his right, picks up a grubby clipboard that's stowed on a nearby shelf.
Speaker B:He seems to refer to it when he goes over the following details.
Speaker A:Victim, sorry Vic is Darren Henn, 28 year old Caucasian Male.
Speaker A:Apparently some sort of blogger for an Internet show called beyond the Dark lost his head though.
Speaker A:His body was found early last Wednesday morning at Detroit Water treatment.
Speaker A:Fact number three.
Speaker A:Three, south side of town.
Speaker A:He spent roughly 10 to 20 hours in the sewer system before being found by workers.
Speaker A:The decapitation was done through unknown means.
Speaker A:And I noted strange 1 to 2 inch cylindrical markings along the wound.
Speaker A:Inconsistent with known bite mark patterns and blunt cutting traumas.
Speaker A:Additionally, my examination discovered an unknown bacterial thrush on the wound.
Speaker A:Inconsistent with local Monera.
Speaker A:My attempts to cultivate the bacteria failed.
Speaker B:He looks up from his clipboard at this point, takes a pause.
Speaker F:He points out consistent or inconsistent?
Speaker B:Inconsistent with local Monera Born.
Speaker B:Then turns the clipboard in your direction.
Speaker B:You see he's lifted up some papers to reveal a municipal map of what looks like the south side of Detroit.
Speaker B:And he points out to you the approximate location where the body was most likely dumped.
Speaker B:He also provides you with pictures of the unknown bacteria he collected from Hen's body.
Speaker B:All five of you kind of huddle over these photographs, the report, and have a chance to ask questions.
Speaker F:What do you know about Operation Treadstone?
Speaker B:He takes out a gun and shoots himself.
Speaker B:His body crumbles to the floor.
Speaker B:Blood pools beneath him.
Speaker D:Him.
Speaker F:Ryan reels back, runs for the exit.
Speaker A:The door is locked.
Speaker B:The lights flash off.
Speaker B:You're left in the darkness.
Speaker B:There's a heavy breath.
Speaker B:No, I'm just kidding.
Speaker F:I was about to go.
Speaker F:I was about to go into.
Speaker F:He suddenly discovers he knows skills he never explain.
Speaker F:Could run out flat out for a mile without losing his breath.
Speaker C:How do I know that?
Speaker F:Why do I know any of that?
Speaker F:Sorry.
Speaker F:Let me read this.
Speaker F:Ask a real question.
Speaker F:Who.
Speaker F:Who found him?
Speaker A:Workers.
Speaker A:Workers at water treatment facility number three.
Speaker F:Have you seen anything like this before?
Speaker A:Nah, nothing like this.
Speaker F:You look like you might have seen some shit in your life.
Speaker D:Okay, when you.
Speaker D:When you say 1 to 2 inch cylindrical markings along the neck, this is out of character.
Speaker D:Are you saying that they're lengthwise or width?
Speaker D:Or you know, like are they horizontal or vertical?
Speaker B:Let's see.
Speaker B:Oh, vertical.
Speaker F:And I genuinely can't even picture that.
Speaker F:What does that mean?
Speaker D:So he's got like gouges, cylindrical gouges in his neck that are vertical.
Speaker B:That's a good way to describe it.
Speaker F:Okay, got it.
Speaker F:So, Doc, what happened to him?
Speaker A:So head decapitated.
Speaker B:He shrugs.
Speaker A:Pretty sure that additional details are the reason that you're here, right?
Speaker D:Hey, can we get into your spaceship and fly to another dimension?
Speaker D:He looks got him confused because he's Cuz he's.
Speaker D:He's Rick from Rick and Morty.
Speaker F:Oh, nice.
Speaker D:I did bad.
Speaker B:I did bad.
Speaker D:Anyhow, as usual, with.
Speaker D:With.
Speaker D:With our.
Speaker D:Our briefing, I just have more questions than answers.
Speaker D:Okay.
Speaker D:How far was he found from how far he was assumed to have been dumped?
Speaker A:Look, I can only give you a real radius here, sure.
Speaker A:Of where he may have been dumped and then eventually washed up into the treatment plant.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:And so that's right here on this map that I've.
Speaker B:I've shown you.
Speaker B:You.
Speaker D:Perfect.
Speaker D:Okay.
Speaker D:Do you have any idea how fast that sewer water moves?
Speaker D:Do you have a general.
Speaker A:I do, actually.
Speaker A:And that's why I gave you this radius here of where he was potentially dumped.
Speaker A:That's actually how I calculated that area.
Speaker D:That's dope.
Speaker D:And I want you to know.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah, It's.
Speaker A:I'm a doctor.
Speaker A:It's what I do.
Speaker F:Except know what he died of.
Speaker A:That's a good point.
Speaker A:I don't.
Speaker A:And again, it's gonna take some additional investigation, most likely.
Speaker F:All right, Doc, well, have you been able to get any kind of other identification?
Speaker F:Has there been any attempts to identify him?
Speaker A:Man's name is Darren Henn.
Speaker F:Oh, right.
Speaker A:According to the.
Speaker B:The folks who employ us.
Speaker D:And did he have any possessions on him?
Speaker A:No.
Speaker D:Okay.
Speaker A:We did not.
Speaker A:Nothing?
Speaker A:Nothing besides identification and a credit card.
Speaker F:Do we know if he's survived by anybody?
Speaker F:Does he have family?
Speaker A:Next of kin?
Speaker A:Potentially.
Speaker A:That's nothing that I have been asked to look into.
Speaker D:I mean, you're just doing your part of the job.
Speaker D:That's not a worry.
Speaker D:But do you have that credit card?
Speaker A:No, I don't have that credit card.
Speaker B:Let me.
Speaker A:Let me show you something.
Speaker B:He takes out his smartphone, types.
Speaker B:After a moment, he turns it towards you.
Speaker B:You see, it's on a website that looks like an artifact of the past time capsule, if you will.
Speaker B:You're on a Contact Us page for a blog called beyond the Dark.
Speaker A:This here is, well, the editor's mailing address and phone number of his employer.
Speaker A:I've been instructed to tell you that this guy here, Danny Corsa, was likely the last person to have seen Darren alive.
Speaker A:He didn't give me any further detail.
Speaker B:He slowly nods at you.
Speaker B:It's kind of awkward.
Speaker D:Okay, perfect.
Speaker D:That's a good thing to go on.
Speaker A:They also told me to let you know Danny doesn't respond.
Speaker B:Kind of cringes a little bit.
Speaker A:Respond well to authority?
Speaker D:Oh, totally.
Speaker B:He shrugs.
Speaker D:I'm used to that.
Speaker D:Were there no radiations on the body?
Speaker D:Did you test for that?
Speaker A:There are no radiation burns or indications.
Speaker B:Of high level exposure.
Speaker E:All right.
Speaker D:I have no further questions.
Speaker E:Yeah, do you have the contact information for the responding officers?
Speaker A:I don't.
Speaker B:He looks around as there's this kind of heavy silence in the air.
Speaker A:What?
Speaker A:I just do the autopsies and they told me to tell you a couple of things about this Danny Corso character.
Speaker A:Sorry, it.
Speaker E:Nope.
Speaker E:Totally understand.
Speaker E:We'll stop by.
Speaker E:I can think of a few places we can get the extra information.
Speaker A:Sure.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:As far as I know, I'm just handing this over to, you know, you the experts.
Speaker A:I did my part.
Speaker E:Thank you so much.
Speaker D:And you did it well.
Speaker D:You earned yourself that four loco.
Speaker A:Oh, I.
Speaker A:I must have left that outside when we came into to brief.
Speaker A:Hopefully I remember to pick it back up and bring it inside and drink it.
Speaker D:It would deep cut me if you didn't.
Speaker D:That's.
Speaker D:That's.
Speaker D:Romeo has no further questions.
Speaker B:You have again just to review an interim report of autopsy which includes the details that were just communicated.
Speaker B:Two slides of bacteria and the location of where the body may have been dumped.
Speaker B:You also have been pointed directly to the address of the victims.
Speaker B:I'm sorry?
Speaker B:The vic's employer.
Speaker D:Are these slides pictures we were given?
Speaker D:Is that what we were to understand?
Speaker B:That's correct.
Speaker D:Okay.
Speaker B:That's correct.
Speaker D:And.
Speaker B:And if there's anything you'd like to do or skills you'd like to roll, I am willing to entertain anything.
Speaker D:Well, they're two very different looking images, so that's pretty wild.
Speaker A:I also have photographs of the wound if you'd like those.
Speaker E:Yes, please.
Speaker B:Nods.
Speaker B:He flips through his clipboard and passes those over as well.
Speaker B:Fairly gruesome.
Speaker B:Obviously a headless corpse since none of you are well trained in medical forensics or medicine at all.
Speaker B:It just looks like a jagged, terrible wound.
Speaker D:Awesome.
Speaker D:Can I.
Speaker D:Can I roll pharmacy on this?
Speaker D:On.
Speaker D:On the bacteria slides to see if that matches anything I am familiar with as a medicine or.
Speaker B:Or do you have chemistry or biology?
Speaker D:That is a definite no.
Speaker B:Yeah, it's.
Speaker B:It's your pharmaceutical expertise does not yield any insight from these slides of whatever organism has been captured here.
Speaker D:Okay, how about a cult on the removed head?
Speaker B:I mean, no skill needs to be run.
Speaker B:Are there instances in occult lore of decapitations hundreds upon thousands?
Speaker B:Yes is the answer.
Speaker D:Beautiful answer.
Speaker F:All right, well, we got an address.
Speaker F:Let's.
Speaker F:Let's go beat this kid up.
Speaker D:Wow.
Speaker F:Ryan looks around dead serious.
Speaker E:No, we're not beating anyone up until we've determined that it's the Right.
Speaker E:Course of action.
Speaker E:Also, no shooting the talking body until we're sure that the talking body needs to be shot, please.
Speaker D:Well, that.
Speaker D:That shouldn't be a problem this time around.
Speaker E:Yeah, that's what I thought last time too.
Speaker B:The doctor.
Speaker B:The doctor seriously and grimly nods as if he completely understands and is following.
Speaker C:Lenny, on the other hand, goes a little wide eyed.
Speaker C:What?
Speaker E:Just.
Speaker E:Just stick with me, Lenny.
Speaker E:These two will get you into no end of trouble again.
Speaker C:Okay?
Speaker E:Come on, children.
Speaker E:We've got a water plant to visit.
Speaker A:You're gonna go to the water plant?
Speaker E:Well, I need to see where the body was found and talk to the person who found it, so.
Speaker E:Yes.
Speaker F:No, we need to go to Darren's place.
Speaker F:Darren was the.
Speaker F:Or not Darren's place?
Speaker F:The.
Speaker F:His employer.
Speaker F:Right.
Speaker A: Listen, they put about: Speaker A:I don't think you're gonna find much in.
Speaker A:In the case of forensics.
Speaker A:Now if you.
Speaker A:If you.
Speaker A:If you talk to the workers who found him, maybe.
Speaker B:He shrugs.
Speaker A:Listen, you're the experts.
Speaker A:I'm sticking my nose where it don't belong.
Speaker F:Chris, remind me where the what.
Speaker F:What the name of the employer guy was.
Speaker F:The guy who ran the thing.
Speaker B:Sure.
Speaker B:The.
Speaker B:The gentleman's name from the Contact Us page.
Speaker B:The editor of the illustrious beyond the Dark webzine.
Speaker B:His name?
Speaker B:Danny Corso.
Speaker F:Danny Corso.
Speaker F:We gotta go visit this Danny guy.
Speaker D:Yeah, I think that's a good.
Speaker F:Okay.
Speaker F:If he doesn't like authority, we'll, We'll.
Speaker F:We'll talk to him.
Speaker D:Ryan, I think you need to take it down a notch or two there because you're coming in hot.
Speaker F:Thanks.
Speaker F:Man pops his collar.
Speaker E:Honestly.
Speaker E:We also need to talk to the police who filed the report.
Speaker F:Can you help me understand that?
Speaker F:Rosen?
Speaker E:Whoever the responding officer was when the body was found, there's possibly information in the report that we don't have yet.
Speaker D:All right, I'll give you that.
Speaker F:Fair enough.
Speaker A:I mean, I'm gonna disagree, respectfully.
Speaker B:He shrugs.
Speaker A:I saw the police report.
Speaker A:It was John Doe found headless in sewer, more or less, but hey.
Speaker B:Again.
Speaker B:He holds up his hands and trails off.
Speaker D:Well, thank you, doctor.
Speaker D:We appreciate your work here.
Speaker D:And we'll get out of your hair.
Speaker A:I would also let you know that this is filed as a John Doe with, with the local pd.
Speaker D:Understood.
Speaker A:The only folks who know the names or the name of the deceased is.
Speaker A:Well, us in this room and I guess somebody.
Speaker B:Somebody at some station.
Speaker A:But they probably work for our bosses too.
Speaker E:That's what it would seem all right Unofficial channels only.
Speaker A:Are there any others when this shit's involved?
Speaker B:He takes a long long drag on his cigarette really damn luckier than me guess they just call me when there's.
Speaker A:A bunch of shit to clean up.
Speaker A:All right let me walk you back.
Speaker B:Out he opens the door to the storage closet leads you through the fluorescent lit halls back outside into the dark parking lot he picks up the four loco and squints at it grasps it tightly seems he intends to drink it.
Speaker A:You have my number hopefully I've given you everything that you need if you find any other victims we'll give you.
Speaker B:A call we can we can probably.
Speaker A:Do some shuffling and I can probably.
Speaker B:Be the one who attends sounds good.
Speaker E:Well keep that in mind Dr.
Speaker D:Thank you Good luck and good luck.
Speaker B:To you he flashes his his badge over the maglock again goes through the door it closes behind him you4 are now left in the dark parking lot.
Speaker D:Sa.
