1 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:09,000 Speaker 1: Irene's homecoming was without fanfare. There were no balloons, no 2 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,119 Speaker 1: smiles or hugs. For the first time in her life, 3 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 1: she was in the doghouse. It was two a m. 4 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 1: And Valeria barely acknowledged his niece as his men escorted 5 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 1: her through the front door. Chante was at a nearby table, 6 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: silent but inwardly relieved to see her tardy Russian consort, 7 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: and Irene, debased and unkempt, stood before her brooding uncle. 8 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: I will deal with you in the morning. Era. It 9 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:44,959 Speaker 1: bangs me to say they will have to be many changes, Shanty, 10 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:50,840 Speaker 1: you will live this place tonight. It was the first 11 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: time he'd referred to Chante by her real name. This 12 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: did not bode well for the juvenile. Where am I going? 13 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: I told you when we first met that keeping one 14 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 1: sword was key. Instead, you betray my trust and endanger 15 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: my livelihood. No, there is no reason for us to 16 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: continue this arrangement. So you will be sent abroad. Abroad 17 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 1: where I mean to do what m h There is 18 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: more suitable profession for your overseas one you are a 19 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: more accustomed Shante comprehended his meaning, as did Irene. She 20 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: was rightly afraid that Valeria intended to sell her to 21 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: bad people, terrible men who would do terrible things to her. 22 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: Thinks Chante would never come back from don't do that. 23 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: What happened to her? It's not quiet. I no longer 24 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: value your judgment under your care. She stopped vitaments boys 25 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: on my security and got you kidnapped scientists. Was your responsibility, 26 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: and you have failed her. So fate will reflect that 27 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: failure accordingly. But you can't do this, Era, You are 28 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: on thin iice yourself. Don't tell me what it is 29 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: I can and cannot do with this straight Bobby, but 30 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: very listen. As he spoke in his curt and haughty manner, 31 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,679 Speaker 1: Chantes felt anger rise within her. It was the old 32 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: temper returning after all she'd been through with training. She 33 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: could not bear Valera's dismissal of her. She had come 34 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: so far, sacrificed so much, and all he could do 35 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: was blame her for events that had been out of 36 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: her control. When the words came out of her, she 37 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: could not stop them. I didn't know dave Von was 38 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 1: going to do all of this, I mean, damn, I 39 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 1: didn't even know that he was stalking me and Rebecca. 40 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 1: She approached me out of nowhere. She knew where I lived, 41 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 1: and she knew about all the fouls on the computer. 42 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,839 Speaker 1: Has it ever even crossed your mind that is your 43 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: security that's doing the bad job here? I mean, I 44 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: know from experience that they are not that hard to trick. 45 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: And speaking of truth, what about you? You're the liar 46 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: lying about those pills. It's no way in hell those 47 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: were vitamins. The outbursts was followed by a lingering silence 48 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: as they all waited to see what Valeria would do next. 49 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: He said nothing at first, but then smiled from ear 50 00:03:54,440 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: to ear. She had never been so frightened. Beautiful, just beautiful. 51 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: I'm glad you got that off your just you bring 52 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: up some good points that I must consider, especially regarding 53 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: my security. And yet you are not to be trusted. 54 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 1: You cannot change that. No one is more disappointed than 55 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 1: I am. Such potential waste it Jama so much no video, no, no, 56 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: I know, I know, I know, I know. But her 57 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: cries fell upon deaf ears. There was nothing I Rene 58 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: could do for her. Now, Shanty's faith was all but sealed, 59 00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: and certain Chantey's faith was far from being sealed. There 60 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: was still so much unknown. The poor girl was scared 61 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: to death as a bag was placed over her head 62 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: and she was shoved into a van where she was headed. 63 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: She didn't know. The car ride seemed an eternity. Finally 64 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 1: they arrived to the location. Chante was led into a 65 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: small windowless room with a cop and a toilet bowl. 66 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: The situation was bleak, but she could not afford to despair. 67 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 1: A plan had to be formed. Plan. I'm sick of plans. 68 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: Plans don't work out, Plans change, and y'all made sure 69 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: of that. He's just when I think I know what's 70 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: going to happen, the rug just it go from under me. 71 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: She looked around the room. It had been soundproofed and sealed. 72 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: There was no hope of an escape. Tears for him 73 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 1: in her eyes as she plunged into her sorrows. These 74 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 1: are tears of sir. This test the difference. Yes, indeed, 75 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: there was a difference between tears of despair and tears 76 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 1: of anger. But that anger could be transformed into determination, 77 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,239 Speaker 1: and determination is what would get Chanty out of this mess. 78 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 1: After all, she had already come such a long way 79 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: as far as society was concerned. Her life had been worthless, 80 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 1: just another sad example of a little black girl with 81 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,239 Speaker 1: a bad attitude and from a rough childhood. But now 82 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: she was in the midst of self creation evolution. Her 83 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: time as Lauren proved that she was capable of rising 84 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 1: to the occasion and coming cool she needed to be. 85 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: All she had to do was focus on her goal 86 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: and she could manifest her desires into existence. You're right, 87 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: I was never Lauren. Lauren doesn't even exist. I mean, 88 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: all that was was this drug that was just giving me. 89 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: There's nothing I can do now but just sit here 90 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: and just hoped God a miracle to happens. Deep down, 91 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: she believed that Irene would come to her rescue, that 92 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: somehow her mentor would find a way to get her 93 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: out of this. After all, she had risked everything to 94 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: save Irene from Davon, even if the foolish plan had failed. 95 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: Wasn't it the thought that counted? But her faith was 96 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: in vain, for no one, not even Irene, could get 97 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 1: her out of this mess. It was easy enough for 98 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: Irene to help Shante when it suited her own needs, 99 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: but she was not a fool, and she couldn't save 100 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: Chante now without risking her own position and safety. The 101 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: situation was hopeless. This situation was by no means hopeless. 102 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: There were solutions available, if only she could overcome the 103 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: nagging voice in her mind sowing doubts. With that outside 104 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: world now shut out, she could zero in on her options. 105 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: Were Chante of a more resolute disposition, perhaps she would 106 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: have found this newfound solitude gratifying. But she was a 107 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 1: consummate wretch and this was but a voice that led 108 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: to nowhere. How about your both just shut hey, tired, 109 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear nothing else from y'all. Just tired. 110 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: Overcome with exhaustion, the weary girl laid on the cut, 111 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: where she instantly fell into a deep slumber. For a 112 00:08:55,600 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 1: few blessed hours she had relief from the chaos. Two 113 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: days passed, and Chante still remained imprisoned in the same room, 114 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: but she had no way of knowing this, since there 115 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: were no windows or natural light present. The only time 116 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 1: she was exposed to another person was when twice a day, 117 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: a masked man would bring her a mildly warm fast 118 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 1: food meal. Each time, she would ask him how long 119 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 1: she would remain in the bleak purgatory. He never uttered 120 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: a word. So what now you just don't see me? Hello? 121 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: Are you just going to ignore me? Hey? What's wrong 122 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:38,239 Speaker 1: with you? More than once she thought about physically attacking him, 123 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: but that was a risk. He could be armed, or 124 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: there could be five others just like him waiting outside 125 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: the room. And so hour after hour in solitary confinement passed. 126 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: Left only with her imagination, she began to consider all 127 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: the possibilities of what Valera had planned for her. She 128 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: thought about how many mistakes she had made life, unfailingly 129 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: trusting the wrong people of time and time again. Would 130 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: she ever get the opportunity to make better decisions? It 131 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: wasn't likely, and the more time passed, the more she 132 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: realized how alone she'd always been and would always be. Slowly, 133 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: hope drained from her soul. As she had said, only 134 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: a miracle would save her now, and hers wasn't a 135 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:34,719 Speaker 1: life adorned by lofty occurrences such as miracles. But then 136 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: a miracle did happen. It was the third evening of 137 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: her imprisonment. Shanta had been lying in the bed when 138 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 1: she heard a distant commotion outside her door. The sound 139 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 1: of guns jolted Shanty out of the bed as the 140 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,839 Speaker 1: conflict continue to get closer. She could hear our Ring's 141 00:10:50,920 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: voice close by. Yea. All of a sudden, the door 142 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: swung open. Breathless and armed with a gun. A blood 143 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: splattered Irene charged into the room. Shanty stand at her shocked. 144 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, what the hell did you do out there? 145 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 1: Let's go now, Shanty ballad Irene's lead. The hallway outside 146 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: the room was littered with three or four motionless bodies. 147 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: One of them was the mas guard who had brought 148 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: her food. Maybe I don't know. It was a large building, 149 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 1: and leaving it was more complicated than getting inside it, 150 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: since our green had shut down all the power. They 151 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: had to take the stairs. And they finally made it 152 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: outside and into Irene's car. Shanty was out of breath. 153 00:11:55,200 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: What the where are we? Stockton Han, It sure took 154 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: you long enough. I thought you was gonna let me 155 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,839 Speaker 1: rot in there. I don't have to tell you how 156 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: hard it is to get away from my uncle. I'm 157 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 1: supposed to be on a plane to Sant Petersburg right now. Great, so, 158 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: now we're both on the run from Valerra. I'm taking 159 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,839 Speaker 1: you to the Amtrak station here. This is a one 160 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: way ticket. To Albuquerque. It's the closest place. Vallera doesn't 161 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: have much influence Alburquerque by myself. Where are you gonna 162 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: go for my protection and yours? I can't tell you 163 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,319 Speaker 1: because you shouldn't have to be afraid of him. Can't 164 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 1: we just report him to the police or something? Come on, 165 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: you're not that naive. So what he's a Russian diplomat, 166 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 1: big deal? This is America. Valletta works for Russia officially, 167 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: but he has been cooperating with the CIA for years. 168 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 1: You can't imagine how protective he is, trust me, So 169 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 1: what does that mean? Huh? He can't just go around 170 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: kidnapping people. It's complicated. There's no time to get into 171 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: this right now. No tell me. I'm not getting to 172 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: have this car until I know everything. Why does he 173 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: get a free pass to just do whatever he wants? 174 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: And what does he want with all those girls? He 175 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: asked day Von for You sure you want to know? Huh? 176 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: I doubt that very much. Listen, for the last six months, 177 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: I've done everything, You've aked, not everything, well almost everything. 178 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: The least you can do is tell me what is 179 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: all this for? You're absolutely right you deserve to know, 180 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: But if I tell you, it will alter the course 181 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: of your life for better or for worse. I don't 182 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: know this is your red pill moment? And who the 183 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 1: funk are you now? Uh, Morpheus? I just saw a 184 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: bunch of dead bodies just a minute ago. I think 185 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: I can handle a red motherfucking peel. Shante looked to 186 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 1: Irene eagerly awaiting a response. She could tell it was 187 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: difficult for her to speak, so she didn't know why 188 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: Schanta needed answers. The time for living in the dog 189 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 1: was over. Irene knew this, for she had once been 190 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 1: in the same boat. I used to think like you 191 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: thought I was invincible. I wasn't as brave though you 192 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 1: want the truth, But to be honest, I didn't want 193 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: to know all the ship my uncle did. Deep down, 194 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 1: I knew what was going on. But why we choose 195 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: to look the other way and go along with the 196 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: status school? Because once you see the world for what 197 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 1: it is, you have an obligation to act, And if 198 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: you have any scruples at all, you wouldn't be able 199 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: to sleep at night knowing your comfort is paid for 200 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: in blood. Yeah, well, it looks back to me you 201 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: sleep pretty damn good. I have no scruples. That can't 202 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: be true. You risk your life to come get me. 203 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: It's hard to explain. I can only tell you that 204 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: I feel compelled to help you against my better judgment. 205 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: This whole time I thought I had power over my narrative. 206 00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: Turns out I don't do this bullshit. Of course you do. 207 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: How else do we get out of this myths like 208 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: me shanty? You hear the voice of the patriarchy. It's 209 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: a heavy burden. Knowing all the ways it tries to 210 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: fuck you over exhausting. I got myself out of a 211 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 1: bad situation only to end up in Valeria's control, and 212 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: then you brought me to him. I had to that 213 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: was my job. My uncle and the CIA know about 214 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: people like us. Okay, if they can control us, they 215 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: can control the patriarchal voice. Think of it like a 216 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: movie where you can change the plot, change future events, 217 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: create new narratives. So basically, they just want to use us. 218 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: I told you from the beginning, but Lara was just 219 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: another pimp. Valera told me that he was doing it 220 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: for Russia to help change the world's perception of us. 221 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: What a joke. He's only helping himself with him there's 222 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: no loyalty, no moral center. But anyway, he's invaluable to 223 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: the government. He's invested millions of dollars into medical and 224 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: pharmaceutical research on their behalf, on their behind. You mean 225 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: drugs like the by it means y'all gave me right. 226 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 1: That's just one of many drugs that they've developed. I 227 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: knew something was the but because still don't get why 228 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 1: they need him, can't they just do it themselves? The 229 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 1: CIA exports these efforts to private companies like Variras to 230 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: keep their hands clean. So let me ask you something. 231 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: What was really in those pills? Then? The pills you 232 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: were taking had two primary functions. One of those was 233 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: repression of impulsive behavior and increased obedience. If you're doing 234 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: what my uncle wants you to do, his desired outcomes 235 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: will likely happen, not yours, okay. And the other part, well, 236 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: that one's not so bad. It was an advanced new tropic, 237 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: a new enhancement that's simply allowed you to learn and 238 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: retain information quickly. But the truth is these ments affect 239 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: everyone differently. They don't even really know how they work, 240 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: which is why I was concerned when you stopped taking them. 241 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 1: That makes sense, and that's probably why I had these 242 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: two voices in my head. Now, I've never heard of 243 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: that happening. I don't know if that's a side effect 244 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: of the mets or not. They're always fighting. He talks 245 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 1: shit about you constantly. She talks a lot. But I 246 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: like her, you know. I feel like she's always trying 247 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: to hype me up. And I don't know what are 248 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 1: they telling you now? Hold on. Shanty strained to hear 249 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 1: these voices. But the most important thing for her to 250 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 1: know was that her previous experiences were unimportant. Now. It 251 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: didn't matter that she came from a broken home or 252 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: that she had sold her body for money. Those things 253 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: wouldn't define her future. She could and would be free. 254 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: Freedom would come at a price, though, and it was expensive. 255 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 1: She would first have to destroy everyone and everything that 256 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: held power over her. The men who had taken me 257 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,640 Speaker 1: from Shanty would again take from others. There was no 258 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 1: end of the damage and suffering they would cause. That 259 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: was the story of the world, the world that had 260 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 1: been created for and by men with boundless desires for dominance. 261 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:11,199 Speaker 1: The time had come to end the patriarchal Nightmary, you 262 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: sold me out to Valeria, and now he's going to 263 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: do the same thing with those girls, but worse, and 264 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 1: I can't let that happen. He's not going to hurt them, Chante. 265 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 1: They will be trained out spies, killers, less sophisticated versions 266 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 1: of you, and lucky for them, there'll be a lot 267 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:31,439 Speaker 1: easier to mold. And you're okay with that? After everything 268 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 1: I told you, you still don't get it. You can't win, 269 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 1: unlike you, Irene, I guess I do have scruples. You're right, okay, 270 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: we have an obligation to put a stuff to this 271 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: that isn't exactly what I said. Anyway, What are you 272 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 1: gonna do? Well, I sure as hell ain't going on 273 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 1: that plane, that's for sure. Take me back to Oakland. 274 00:18:55,800 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: Why we have to kill day Von again and Valera? 275 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: Both of those assholes have to go. A reversal of 276 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,919 Speaker 1: power had occurred between the two women, for despite her 277 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: outward confidence, Irene was the weaker of the two. She 278 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: had never escaped a powerful ball encompassing influence of the patriarchy, 279 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: nor would she ever. Though she didn't yet know it, 280 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: Johntay's childish attachment to her Soviet iDoom would eventually lead 281 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: to her own doubtful But dear listener, that's a fact 282 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: which will remain a secret between you and me. It's official. 283 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 1: Rebecca and Owen are married. Of course, that's just on paper. 284 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: The so called marriage is a sham to get own legalized. 285 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 1: Who could blame them? Still, it doesn't sit right with me, 286 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 1: not after Owen told me that he was in love 287 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 1: with my sister. But I guess it's everyone's job to 288 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: smile and pretend it's all good. I'm so glad for Rebecca. 289 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:17,400 Speaker 1: She deserves to be happy. Yeah, I guess, are you okay? 290 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: You seem upset? I'm fine. Grand It's just weird. I 291 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: always thought Owen had a thing for Savannah, so did I. 292 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: He cared for her very much. But I can't blame 293 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 1: him for wanting to move on with his life. Savannah 294 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 1: is still here, Yes she is. That doesn't mean others 295 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 1: are obligated to wait around until she wakes up. My 296 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: grandma never ceases to see the best in people. Too bad. 297 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 1: That's not a trade I inherited, if you say so. Oh, look, 298 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: Rebecca's coming over now. Rebecca. Congratulations, dear, Oh thank you, 299 00:20:55,560 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: miss look very Oh you're so sweet. There's a little 300 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: gift from Builah and I you're amazing. I'll open it 301 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:09,439 Speaker 1: later with owen. Are your parents around? Yes, they should 302 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: be here somewhere. I'll go find them and like, ladies 303 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: chat congratulations. Oh, I'm I'm sorry. Is it Beulah or 304 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: Savannah saying that? What do you mean? I'm guessing Beulah, 305 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 1: since I don't think Savannah would be too thrilled about 306 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 1: all this. I have no idea what you're talking about. 307 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 1: Savannah still in a coma. Okay, So so that's the 308 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 1: storyline we're going with today, got it. You know the 309 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 1: only reason I haven't thrown you out is because Jennifer 310 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: is here and I refused to disrespect her. But let 311 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 1: me make this clear, stay the hell away from me 312 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: for good. If this is about Basil, Basil, please. The 313 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: ship you pulled the other night makes this Basil situation 314 00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: look like a trip to Disney Place, Jacca. I told 315 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 1: you I have been having problems with my memory. If 316 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 1: I did something else to offend you, I'm sorry. Yes, Beulah, 317 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: I find you blackmailing me and implicating me in a 318 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 1: human trafficking skiing very fucking offensive. So stay the funk 319 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: away another episode in the Twilight Zone. I must have 320 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: blacked out again. This can't be happening. There's no way 321 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,120 Speaker 1: I could do something like that. A bomb is bad enough, 322 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 1: but trafficking blackmail? What kind of monster? Am I? Really? 323 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: I need fresh air? Come on, keep it together, Beulah, 324 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: Just relax, Thankfully, no one's out here to see what 325 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: a mess I am. Sounds like Lenny. Is he arguing 326 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: with someone in the Liberation Radio building? No, I'm not 327 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: gonna do it.
