WEBVTT - 12 | The Unreachable Star

0:00:00.840 --> 0:00:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Consumed as a production of iHeart Podcast and Grimm and

0:00:03.760 --> 0:00:08.719
<v Speaker 1>Mild from Aaron Maky. Headphones recommended. Listener discretion advised.

0:00:20.960 --> 0:00:30.479
<v Speaker 2>Do you mind if I smoke? We called him the

0:00:30.600 --> 0:00:34.400
<v Speaker 2>dark Man. We were told he would come through the

0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:39.280
<v Speaker 2>shadows and make bad kids disappear. I was eight years

0:00:39.320 --> 0:00:45.480
<v Speaker 2>old when Jimmy vanished. James Mooring he was sixteen or seventeen,

0:00:45.600 --> 0:00:52.319
<v Speaker 2>and boy was he a trouble maker. He draws all

0:00:52.320 --> 0:00:54.800
<v Speaker 2>of the kids at the McDonald the old middle school.

0:00:55.560 --> 0:00:58.520
<v Speaker 2>I was looking for a fight would have gone pro

0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:03.120
<v Speaker 2>in the ring. I suspect if only he hadn't been

0:01:03.120 --> 0:01:06.480
<v Speaker 2>pushed so hard by his father. That son of a

0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:09.960
<v Speaker 2>bit strength enough for the whole town. And we knew

0:01:10.000 --> 0:01:13.280
<v Speaker 2>when Jimmy came around with a black eye it wasn't

0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:16.520
<v Speaker 2>because he lost a fight. He never lost a fight

0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:21.440
<v Speaker 2>or fell down the stairs. No one bought it, but

0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:24.400
<v Speaker 2>he never said it out loud. You didn't back then.

0:01:24.440 --> 0:01:28.280
<v Speaker 2>It was nineteen sixty. Twelve year old smoked a pack

0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:31.160
<v Speaker 2>of luck. He's a day for fun. You just let

0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:34.840
<v Speaker 2>Jimmy terrorize you, as if it was a way to

0:01:34.880 --> 0:01:39.760
<v Speaker 2>give him a small win in his otherwise miserable life. Now,

0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:43.679
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how much of this ended up being

0:01:44.080 --> 0:01:48.160
<v Speaker 2>legend versus fact, but I was eight or nine, and

0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:52.760
<v Speaker 2>remember that one day Jimmy was picking on us down

0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:57.320
<v Speaker 2>behind the Anderson and the next day he was gone.

0:01:57.680 --> 0:02:02.640
<v Speaker 2>Old Man Brooder, grandpa who ran the grocer, told us

0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:05.800
<v Speaker 2>Jimmy had gone off to some prep school. I think

0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:11.440
<v Speaker 2>your kids call it the Governor's Academy nowadays. Now look,

0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:15.120
<v Speaker 2>there's no way in hell Jimmy Mooring would have let

0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:18.920
<v Speaker 2>himself go to a prep school. Kid was smart, but

0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:22.280
<v Speaker 2>he wasn't a suit and tie kind of guy. But

0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:27.680
<v Speaker 2>we didn't question, not until well, it wasn't until we

0:02:27.760 --> 0:02:30.800
<v Speaker 2>heard what happened to missus Shaw one night in nineteen

0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:35.160
<v Speaker 2>sixty three. We didn't see it, but rumors said that

0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:40.320
<v Speaker 2>she showed up the Mooring house, who were clearly still grieving,

0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:45.880
<v Speaker 2>and she just started pounding on the door, yelling things

0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:50.160
<v Speaker 2>like the dark Man took our children. They let him

0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:54.480
<v Speaker 2>take them. And that's how it started and grew into

0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:58.960
<v Speaker 2>an urban legend. Everyone wrote off Missus Shaw and Missus

0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:03.280
<v Speaker 2>Mooring is coop, especially when mister Moring drunk himself into

0:03:03.320 --> 0:03:07.040
<v Speaker 2>the ground a year later. But when you're sixteen years old,

0:03:07.120 --> 0:03:14.240
<v Speaker 2>you start to worry about other things, like girls and Vietnam,

0:03:14.280 --> 0:03:18.280
<v Speaker 2>wondering if you'd end up going if the US got involved,

0:03:19.880 --> 0:03:20.280
<v Speaker 2>did you.

0:03:20.919 --> 0:03:21.119
<v Speaker 3>Oh?

0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:24.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Only thing I ever won that wasn't Sandy's affection

0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:28.160
<v Speaker 2>was the lottery. But this was the world's worst lottery,

0:03:28.160 --> 0:03:32.000
<v Speaker 2>and I spent eighteen months there, barely survived Kese Song,

0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:36.760
<v Speaker 2>only thinking I'd never see her nor Danville again. I

0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 2>suppose that's why we had little Joshua so fast when

0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:41.000
<v Speaker 2>I got back.

0:03:41.680 --> 0:03:44.640
<v Speaker 4>And he's the boy that disappeared in nineteen ninety one

0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:46.240
<v Speaker 4>at the rock concert in Boston.

0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:50.360
<v Speaker 2>That's what the paper said. But Joshua never made it

0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:51.280
<v Speaker 2>down to Boston.

0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:54.200
<v Speaker 5>How do you know what happened?

0:03:54.960 --> 0:03:58.600
<v Speaker 2>I could see it in their eyes, the Shaws, the Bruders,

0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:04.320
<v Speaker 2>the McDonald's. What the guilt? They knew? What happened?

0:04:05.000 --> 0:04:07.760
<v Speaker 5>What was it? What happened to your son, Rudy?

0:04:08.600 --> 0:04:30.239
<v Speaker 6>They happened, this town, happened, sat hides and you should

0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:32.000
<v Speaker 6>in your house.

0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:08.480
<v Speaker 7>So was it the dark Man?

0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:10.240
<v Speaker 5>Because believe me.

0:05:10.320 --> 0:05:11.159
<v Speaker 7>We took care of that.

0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:12.680
<v Speaker 8>We stopped it.

0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you didn't stop anything, just like I didn't thirty

0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:25.080
<v Speaker 2>one years ago or this year what do you mean, Oshi, Manitou.

0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:31.719
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, Manitou. It's everything to the Algonquin. It is

0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:38.760
<v Speaker 2>the spirit of life, omnipresent and found everywhere animals, earth, trees, plants, food,

0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:41.080
<v Speaker 2>even at birth and death.

0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:44.240
<v Speaker 5>Okay, And like.

0:05:44.279 --> 0:05:49.640
<v Speaker 2>Many spiritual cultures, there's a duality to it, the good

0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:50.719
<v Speaker 2>and the bad.

0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:56.000
<v Speaker 5>No ugly Gordon, Sorry.

0:05:55.040 --> 0:06:02.000
<v Speaker 2>The good Manitou is the asha the bad Oatshee. Back

0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:05.800
<v Speaker 2>in the seventeenth century, when the colonizers found Danville, they

0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:07.479
<v Speaker 2>found a thriving community.

0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:11.960
<v Speaker 8>Holy shit, Gordon, the whispers.

0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:15.200
<v Speaker 2>They were welcomed by a tribe settled up top what

0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:20.279
<v Speaker 2>you know is Anderson Hill, where this very library was

0:06:20.279 --> 0:06:24.760
<v Speaker 2>eventually built. The chief of the tribe was convinced everyone

0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:30.240
<v Speaker 2>could get along, but the colonizers had guns and greed.

0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:33.040
<v Speaker 8>Some things never change.

0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:37.479
<v Speaker 2>Still, this chief thought he could make things work, but

0:06:37.600 --> 0:06:41.760
<v Speaker 2>little by little, the colonizers kept taking and he kept

0:06:41.760 --> 0:06:45.159
<v Speaker 2>making deals. It wasn't until the deals ran out and

0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:48.440
<v Speaker 2>he was forced to lock up his remaining tribespeople in

0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:52.279
<v Speaker 2>a crypt built somewhere in town that they burned them

0:06:52.320 --> 0:06:58.039
<v Speaker 2>all alive while making him watch. Then, because they were bored,

0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:05.279
<v Speaker 2>brutally skinned, and murdered him. Oh Jesus, And do you

0:07:05.520 --> 0:07:09.279
<v Speaker 2>want to know how old the chief was when he

0:07:09.360 --> 0:07:16.400
<v Speaker 2>had everything, his children, his wife, his family, his tribe,

0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:22.360
<v Speaker 2>his land, his entire village taken away from him.

0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:22.320
<v Speaker 8>Thirty one years old.

0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:24.640
<v Speaker 2>Thirty one years old.

0:07:25.680 --> 0:07:27.920
<v Speaker 4>But how does that explain that they got rid of

0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:30.600
<v Speaker 4>the good spirits, leaving this area unbalanced?

0:07:31.120 --> 0:07:40.320
<v Speaker 2>Correct? Without Asha Manitou, only Oshi Manitou remained, and it

0:07:40.480 --> 0:07:45.360
<v Speaker 2>laid upon Danville a curse that had to be fed

0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:49.360
<v Speaker 2>every thirty one years.

0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:52.160
<v Speaker 7>A sacrifice like what they did to the chief.

0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:55.760
<v Speaker 2>Every thirty one years, someone from the town had to

0:07:55.800 --> 0:08:02.320
<v Speaker 2>be consumed in order to keep the manner to it. Bay,

0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:07.400
<v Speaker 2>I didn't believe any of the dark man or until

0:08:07.440 --> 0:08:08.480
<v Speaker 2>it happened to my boy.

0:08:09.880 --> 0:08:13.160
<v Speaker 9>But what about the monster? We definitely ended something down

0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:13.880
<v Speaker 9>by the old drain.

0:08:14.520 --> 0:08:17.680
<v Speaker 2>You ended a physical manifestation of what happens when the

0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:22.080
<v Speaker 2>curse is ignored. The sacrificing of a resident has to

0:08:22.160 --> 0:08:23.200
<v Speaker 2>be fulfilled.

0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:28.160
<v Speaker 9>Okay, supposing there's sillivandet out there, why did you leave

0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:29.680
<v Speaker 9>and take the internet with you?

0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:35.960
<v Speaker 2>I shut down the grid because well, because I was angry.

0:08:37.240 --> 0:08:41.680
<v Speaker 2>They took Joshua and you saw her they took my

0:08:41.840 --> 0:08:48.640
<v Speaker 2>Sandy away twenty eight years. She tried to process, but

0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:52.000
<v Speaker 2>it eats at you. All she wanted to talk about

0:08:52.120 --> 0:08:55.239
<v Speaker 2>was the dark Man. No one else existed, myself included.

0:08:56.000 --> 0:08:59.120
<v Speaker 2>I knew I'd have to work just to keep her

0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:03.160
<v Speaker 2>in a safe place. I'd already developed the area's first

0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:07.199
<v Speaker 2>computer network, so it was only natural that I create

0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:11.920
<v Speaker 2>our rural isp framework as well. That's when I noticed

0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:15.600
<v Speaker 2>this year that they could hear us, and some of

0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:16.720
<v Speaker 2>us could hear.

0:09:16.559 --> 0:09:18.840
<v Speaker 8>Them through technology.

0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:24.240
<v Speaker 10>Through the waves are man made spirits, so they've been

0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:32.040
<v Speaker 10>listening this whole time. But from where, from everywhere, radios, phones, speakers.

0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:35.840
<v Speaker 7>That does sound a bit crazy, though.

0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:41.640
<v Speaker 2>As crazy as the monster you say you incinerated, Well yeah,

0:09:41.920 --> 0:09:44.520
<v Speaker 2>let me ask you. Did you ever see it.

0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:46.160
<v Speaker 5>The windy go?

0:09:47.000 --> 0:09:47.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:09:48.160 --> 0:09:49.960
<v Speaker 5>Well no, but I heard it.

0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:55.439
<v Speaker 2>You heard what you're scared of. You heard your deepest fears,

0:09:55.920 --> 0:09:57.200
<v Speaker 2>and it terrified you.

0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:04.040
<v Speaker 7>But why did you let it come back this year revenge?

0:10:04.200 --> 0:10:08.360
<v Speaker 2>What with Sandy at the home and Joshua gone. Once

0:10:08.400 --> 0:10:11.160
<v Speaker 2>I saw that the patriarchs of the town were planning

0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:14.640
<v Speaker 2>on defying the curse, I knew they'd pay for it,

0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:17.760
<v Speaker 2>And my only regret is that the spirits haven't taken

0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:19.000
<v Speaker 2>more of them.

0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:22.719
<v Speaker 11>Okay, but hold on, Alfonso had nothing to do with.

0:10:22.679 --> 0:10:26.000
<v Speaker 2>Any of this Wrong town, wrong time.

0:10:26.920 --> 0:10:27.920
<v Speaker 8>So how do we stop it?

0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:31.599
<v Speaker 2>Unless you can find a way to satiate the spirits,

0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:35.640
<v Speaker 2>you can't. You should just pack a bag and never

0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:37.200
<v Speaker 2>turn around.

0:10:37.679 --> 0:10:39.079
<v Speaker 5>Worry, But why did you come back?

0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:43.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to bury my wife next to the empty

0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:46.959
<v Speaker 2>grave of my son, and by this time next week

0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:49.840
<v Speaker 2>I'll be somewhere in Europe. Who knows?

0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:53.480
<v Speaker 9>Is there any way you can help us before someone

0:10:53.480 --> 0:10:54.160
<v Speaker 9>else dies?

0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:55.920
<v Speaker 2>I've told you everything I know.

0:10:56.480 --> 0:10:57.079
<v Speaker 5>No, but for.

0:10:57.040 --> 0:11:01.160
<v Speaker 4>Real there, thank you for your time, Rudy, Sorry for

0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:02.960
<v Speaker 4>your loss, says.

0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:06.480
<v Speaker 8>I hope you find some peace wherever you end up.

0:11:09.559 --> 0:11:13.520
<v Speaker 2>It's too late for peace or revenge for me, but

0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:15.160
<v Speaker 2>perhaps not for you.

0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:23.000
<v Speaker 7>Was that helpful?

0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:25.040
<v Speaker 8>Dude has seen shit?

0:11:25.920 --> 0:11:27.640
<v Speaker 5>Yeah? But was it all shit?

0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:28.600
<v Speaker 3>What?

0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:31.120
<v Speaker 5>I don't mean his suffering? No, no, no, I.

0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:36.400
<v Speaker 9>Mean we could be talking big fish here. Memories makes

0:11:36.400 --> 0:11:38.520
<v Speaker 9>with dreams as you get older, and it all becomes

0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:39.480
<v Speaker 9>real in one's head.

0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:41.120
<v Speaker 8>Shut up for a second.

0:11:41.200 --> 0:11:45.559
<v Speaker 5>Listen you hear that the wind draft's gotta draft?

0:11:47.080 --> 0:11:50.720
<v Speaker 7>No, no, no.

0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:54.360
<v Speaker 5>No, it can't be. What the fuck we wrote that

0:11:54.440 --> 0:11:55.199
<v Speaker 5>that demon from hell.

0:11:55.480 --> 0:11:56.440
<v Speaker 6>We did.

0:11:57.520 --> 0:12:05.560
<v Speaker 8>Listen, listen, Holy shit?

0:12:08.600 --> 0:12:11.880
<v Speaker 5>Was that English? That's not supposed to be this shit.

0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:20.120
<v Speaker 4>It's okay, listen, pray, remember Gordon, don't you get it?

0:12:20.720 --> 0:12:27.480
<v Speaker 8>What it's here, It's been here the whole time.

0:12:36.559 --> 0:12:39.319
<v Speaker 4>Sheriff, Sheriff, Hey, hey, I was just coming to it's

0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:39.920
<v Speaker 4>the library.

0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:44.400
<v Speaker 12>What it's the library. That's the source of all of it.

0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:46.200
<v Speaker 12>And if you don't come with us and help us

0:12:46.200 --> 0:12:48.880
<v Speaker 12>try to stop it right now, I think we'll be

0:12:49.000 --> 0:12:52.439
<v Speaker 12>in for a very massive fucking realization that things are

0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:53.439
<v Speaker 12>nowhere near done.

0:12:53.559 --> 0:12:55.840
<v Speaker 11>Can someone just listen to us right now.

0:12:56.040 --> 0:12:56.719
<v Speaker 13>We need to get the.

0:12:56.679 --> 0:12:59.480
<v Speaker 4>Guns, the cups, the tactical whatever, and just get back

0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:00.840
<v Speaker 4>to the tunnel tunnels.

0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:03.880
<v Speaker 11>I'm sorry, I'm a bit busy right now. I've that

0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:04.960
<v Speaker 11>wasn't everything.

0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:06.560
<v Speaker 13>And the longer we wait here.

0:13:07.880 --> 0:13:08.400
<v Speaker 2>What the.

0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:10.719
<v Speaker 7>What's going on?

0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:15.800
<v Speaker 8>What's that smell?

0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:18.080
<v Speaker 11>I think it's wherever those fire trucks are going.

0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:21.240
<v Speaker 14>Oh my god, it's the library.

0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:27.920
<v Speaker 7>Get the ladder off on the side.

0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:28.920
<v Speaker 1>We need more water.

0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:31.000
<v Speaker 7>We don't have any more water.

0:13:31.200 --> 0:13:33.120
<v Speaker 5>What do you mean the hydrant is dream?

0:13:33.480 --> 0:13:34.319
<v Speaker 6>What the fuck?

0:14:04.800 --> 0:14:05.920
<v Speaker 7>A nott a fucking night?

0:14:06.720 --> 0:14:09.240
<v Speaker 5>Good job, boys and girls, we contained it.

0:14:09.440 --> 0:14:12.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but the entire villain is basically turned to ash.

0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:15.960
<v Speaker 13>What's important is that it didn't spread and no one

0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:16.480
<v Speaker 13>was hurt.

0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:18.439
<v Speaker 5>It took fourteen.

0:14:17.960 --> 0:14:19.080
<v Speaker 2>Hours, but we did it.

0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:24.320
<v Speaker 7>Let's get out of here. Thanks Max, Thanks guys.

0:14:29.200 --> 0:14:32.880
<v Speaker 14>Hello, officer, have you seen a woman named Sarah Simmons?

0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:38.760
<v Speaker 8>Lex Sarah? Oh, Jesus Christ, you're okay? Of course?

0:14:39.840 --> 0:14:40.840
<v Speaker 13>How did you find us?

0:14:41.120 --> 0:14:43.760
<v Speaker 14>You'll find my iPhone pings late last night after a

0:14:43.840 --> 0:14:45.880
<v Speaker 14>day and a half of calling you and it going

0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:49.320
<v Speaker 14>straight to voicemail, which we'll have to talk about later.

0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:52.840
<v Speaker 4>And you drove up here. Of course, I drove up

0:14:52.880 --> 0:14:55.600
<v Speaker 4>here to chastise me. I suppose to make sure.

0:14:55.440 --> 0:14:59.400
<v Speaker 14>You were okay, Sis, talk of murders and then radio silence.

0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:02.640
<v Speaker 14>I'll do a number on someone. So you're not here

0:15:02.640 --> 0:15:05.280
<v Speaker 14>to I'm here for my sister, and that's all that matters.

0:15:06.680 --> 0:15:09.760
<v Speaker 14>I'm relieved beyond measure that you're alive and well. And

0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:12.520
<v Speaker 14>I'm not even going to ask what happened there.

0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:15.119
<v Speaker 7>That used to be my playground.

0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:16.080
<v Speaker 3>Hi?

0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:19.640
<v Speaker 7>Gordon Morales, you must be alex Sis.

0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:24.040
<v Speaker 4>This is Gordon literally just said that, Yeah, sorry, it's

0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:27.400
<v Speaker 4>been what day is there? It's been a few days.

0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:30.600
<v Speaker 14>Nice to meet you, Gordon.

0:15:31.840 --> 0:15:32.760
<v Speaker 8>You used to live here.

0:15:33.200 --> 0:15:36.440
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, a lot of history. Just went up and smoke, Alex.

0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:39.400
<v Speaker 11>I'll explain everything, but I gotta Yeah, No.

0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:39.880
<v Speaker 13>I get it.

0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:42.760
<v Speaker 14>I saw a diner on the way in I can

0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:45.400
<v Speaker 14>Uh no, I wouldn't go there.

0:15:45.680 --> 0:15:48.360
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, I'd avoid that place. They got to see you

0:15:48.400 --> 0:15:51.280
<v Speaker 9>on their latest health inspection. But there's a great motel

0:15:51.320 --> 0:15:53.680
<v Speaker 9>in Lumington just down the road. We'll make sure to

0:15:53.680 --> 0:15:55.000
<v Speaker 9>get Sarah there once we uh.

0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:56.240
<v Speaker 14>Yeah, no, I get it.

0:15:57.400 --> 0:15:58.920
<v Speaker 8>I'm just happy you're okay.

0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:08.760
<v Speaker 11>Thanks, Lex. So, so where are you going to stay tonight?

0:16:10.000 --> 0:16:11.880
<v Speaker 5>I have no idea none.

0:16:12.360 --> 0:16:16.120
<v Speaker 7>I mean, this all kind of happened really quick. Yeah,

0:16:16.600 --> 0:16:19.200
<v Speaker 7>one minute or researching centuries of history, and.

0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:22.040
<v Speaker 11>The next it's all gone without.

0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:22.640
<v Speaker 5>So much as a warning.

0:16:23.200 --> 0:16:27.840
<v Speaker 4>Shame the books, I guess. I guess when books are burned,

0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:29.680
<v Speaker 4>things like this tend to happen.

0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:34.800
<v Speaker 9>Colonial cartnage, the terrorizing escapegoating of certain people's minorities if

0:16:34.840 --> 0:16:39.000
<v Speaker 9>you're being nasty, theft, death, destruction lies to blink the

0:16:39.000 --> 0:16:40.000
<v Speaker 9>public into thinking.

0:16:40.280 --> 0:16:42.240
<v Speaker 11>Feels like a New Hampshire primary.

0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:45.800
<v Speaker 9>Well less detrimental to the country as a whole, I suppose,

0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:47.840
<v Speaker 9>But I'll still miss them.

0:16:48.360 --> 0:16:51.720
<v Speaker 11>And the newspapers. Oh, the old computer, the Tom Brady poster,

0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:53.640
<v Speaker 11>all gone.

0:16:53.760 --> 0:16:57.280
<v Speaker 7>Well, almost all gone. For some reason.

0:16:57.320 --> 0:16:58.960
<v Speaker 9>I brought a little bag with me when we left

0:16:58.960 --> 0:16:59.960
<v Speaker 9>the Gotell Maxwell's.

0:17:00.720 --> 0:17:03.760
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, I can see that. It's a beautiful bag, stunning.

0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:06.239
<v Speaker 11>Did you want to describe it to me? Even though

0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:07.679
<v Speaker 11>I'm standing here looking at it.

0:17:07.680 --> 0:17:10.119
<v Speaker 7>It's not the bag so much, but this.

0:17:12.440 --> 0:17:15.040
<v Speaker 11>Whoa is this the real thing?

0:17:15.600 --> 0:17:18.680
<v Speaker 9>The playbill for Man of Wamoncha's Broadway debut.

0:17:19.280 --> 0:17:22.080
<v Speaker 4>I mean one would have assumed it would have burned

0:17:22.080 --> 0:17:25.359
<v Speaker 4>with everything else. And if I were a betting man,

0:17:25.640 --> 0:17:29.000
<v Speaker 4>I would assume that if someone had time to get

0:17:29.000 --> 0:17:32.360
<v Speaker 4>something out of a burning building, perhaps they had something.

0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:32.640
<v Speaker 11>To do with it.

0:17:33.400 --> 0:17:36.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, we can just keep on assuming it.

0:17:36.560 --> 0:17:38.680
<v Speaker 11>I like, just wait, which part?

0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:39.400
<v Speaker 5>What?

0:17:39.840 --> 0:17:40.280
<v Speaker 13>Which part?

0:17:40.280 --> 0:17:43.520
<v Speaker 4>Are we assuming that it would have burned with everything else?

0:17:43.680 --> 0:17:46.880
<v Speaker 4>Or that someone might assume we had something to.

0:17:46.800 --> 0:17:47.159
<v Speaker 13>Do with this?

0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:52.000
<v Speaker 9>I do you think anyone is going to figure out that?

0:17:53.480 --> 0:17:53.760
<v Speaker 13>Think?

0:17:55.520 --> 0:17:55.879
<v Speaker 7>Sorry?

0:17:56.119 --> 0:17:56.480
<v Speaker 5>Think what?

0:17:57.080 --> 0:17:58.160
<v Speaker 13>I wouldn't want to risk it.

0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:01.679
<v Speaker 9>Well, lucky for us us, this beautiful bag has an

0:18:01.680 --> 0:18:02.520
<v Speaker 9>inside zipper.

0:18:02.640 --> 0:18:06.040
<v Speaker 7>So I'll just put it back here, just.

0:18:06.000 --> 0:18:09.720
<v Speaker 11>For us, just for us, huh.

0:18:09.280 --> 0:18:11.600
<v Speaker 9>I mean until the rom com prophecy is fulfilled, and

0:18:11.720 --> 0:18:14.640
<v Speaker 9>I find out you're building high rise luxury housing right

0:18:14.680 --> 0:18:16.800
<v Speaker 9>here with my bank account.

0:18:16.840 --> 0:18:18.439
<v Speaker 11>Until I have a job, I won't be doing much

0:18:18.480 --> 0:18:18.960
<v Speaker 11>of anything.

0:18:19.440 --> 0:18:20.880
<v Speaker 5>I don't think that will be an issue.

0:18:21.320 --> 0:18:23.320
<v Speaker 9>This story will open up a million doors for you.

0:18:24.119 --> 0:18:24.719
<v Speaker 13>What story?

0:18:25.359 --> 0:18:28.080
<v Speaker 5>What story? You mean the last four days of stories.

0:18:28.280 --> 0:18:29.360
<v Speaker 5>Happy to remind.

0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.800
<v Speaker 11>You, I have no idea what you're talking about. Seems

0:18:31.880 --> 0:18:33.040
<v Speaker 11>like some people.

0:18:32.800 --> 0:18:36.440
<v Speaker 4>Got mulled by woodland creatures and an unfortunate fire took

0:18:36.440 --> 0:18:39.840
<v Speaker 4>a creaky, drafty, shaky building that really shouldn't have been

0:18:39.880 --> 0:18:40.600
<v Speaker 4>there in the first place.

0:18:41.280 --> 0:18:44.080
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, Yeah, that's exactly what I was gonna say.

0:18:44.480 --> 0:18:45.160
<v Speaker 5>A real talk.

0:18:45.280 --> 0:18:48.080
<v Speaker 9>Wouldn't another version help you get one of those big

0:18:48.119 --> 0:18:48.960
<v Speaker 9>fancy jobs?

0:18:49.520 --> 0:18:49.720
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:52.119
<v Speaker 11>Maybe, but at what cost?

0:18:52.960 --> 0:18:55.160
<v Speaker 4>Also, I think you're overestimating what a media job pays

0:18:55.160 --> 0:18:55.960
<v Speaker 4>in twenty twenty two.

0:18:57.080 --> 0:18:59.560
<v Speaker 11>And besides, I think I found the job that I want.

0:19:00.280 --> 0:19:03.560
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, yeah, you want to get out of here?

0:19:04.640 --> 0:19:05.800
<v Speaker 7>Yeah?

0:19:06.080 --> 0:19:07.119
<v Speaker 3>The on Me.

<v Speaker 4>Starve.

0:19:25.080 --> 0:19:28.159
<v Speaker 15>That was the impossible dream from that doozy man of

0:19:28.240 --> 0:19:28.800
<v Speaker 15>La Mancho.

0:19:29.040 --> 0:19:29.560

<v Speaker 16>First off, relax, not calling about anything having to do

0:20:05.240 --> 0:20:06.080

<v Speaker 11>When you see us.

0:20:15.240 --> 0:20:18.480
<v Speaker 3>Well, unless you're dying to staying. Where even are you.

0:20:18.920 --> 0:20:21.000
<v Speaker 7>Indiana, Missouri?

0:20:21.480 --> 0:20:24.600
<v Speaker 3>Sorry? I don't even know where that is really? North

0:20:24.600 --> 0:20:26.080
<v Speaker 3>of Texas, south of Canada.

0:20:26.119 --> 0:20:30.239
<v Speaker 13>I presume hold on Mescal s Amigos.

0:20:30.119 --> 0:20:32.960
<v Speaker 16>In good old CDMX, or as we call it down

0:20:33.000 --> 0:20:38.399
<v Speaker 16>here aks, but usually without my atrocious accent butchering it.

0:20:39.119 --> 0:20:40.480
<v Speaker 11>You're in Mexico City.

0:20:41.119 --> 0:20:44.760
<v Speaker 5>Indeed, how why when it dust.

0:20:44.640 --> 0:20:49.000
<v Speaker 16>Settled after that mysterious fire, I tried to tie up

0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:52.600
<v Speaker 16>some LuSE enns And when I looked around, everyone that's

0:20:52.600 --> 0:20:55.840
<v Speaker 16>had lost someone had family to lean on, except.

0:20:55.359 --> 0:20:57.840
<v Speaker 8>For Alfonso's mother.

0:20:58.560 --> 0:21:02.880
<v Speaker 16>Correct, So I decided that my time in America had

0:21:02.880 --> 0:21:05.200
<v Speaker 16>come to a pause.

0:21:05.440 --> 0:21:08.959
<v Speaker 3>And that someone had to get consoled reunited with her relatives.

0:21:09.520 --> 0:21:10.920
<v Speaker 5>So you stayed down there.

0:21:11.200 --> 0:21:16.280
<v Speaker 3>Wouldn't you. It's gorgeous and the people are wonderful, but.

0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:19.160
<v Speaker 9>They're kind of getting annoyed with expats moving down there,

0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:21.000
<v Speaker 9>aren't they Americans?

0:21:21.400 --> 0:21:22.880
<v Speaker 3>They're annoyed with Americans.

0:21:23.280 --> 0:21:24.960
<v Speaker 16>But that's a worldwide phenomena.

0:21:25.359 --> 0:21:26.040
<v Speaker 11>You're not wrong.

0:21:27.000 --> 0:21:30.080
<v Speaker 4>That's wonderful, But I think we're a bit confused as

0:21:30.080 --> 0:21:31.000
<v Speaker 4>to why you're calling.

0:21:31.280 --> 0:21:37.480
<v Speaker 16>I guess what do you know about Elbosque, the Chapultepec.

0:21:37.480 --> 0:21:38.800
<v Speaker 7>The forest of Chapultepec.
