Speaker 1: Bridgewater is a production of iHeartRadio three D audio and
Speaker 1: Grim and Mild from Aaron Mankey for full exposure, listen
Speaker 1: with headphones. Listener discretion advised. Oh my god, I'm getting
Speaker 1: tired of running through the woods away from monsters. Jeremy,
Speaker 1: how did you? I mean you just I don't know
Speaker 1: I did that? Did that really just happen? I guess
Speaker 1: yeah it did. Welcome to the club of people with
Speaker 1: evidence of the paranormal. This is unbelievable. It is a
Speaker 1: lot to take in. We've been dealing with it for
Speaker 1: a week now, and I don't think we've even begun
Speaker 1: to process it. I mean, those are those were thunderbirds,
Speaker 1: like real thunderbirds. I'm not sure about that. Actually, what
Speaker 1: do you mean? They were enormous birds who brought thunder
Speaker 1: and lightning with them. Thunderbirds are sacred protectors in Wampanog legend.
Speaker 1: They mostly attack creatures from the underworld or people who
Speaker 1: broke moral rules. It doesn't make sense that they'd attack us.
Speaker 1: Not to mention the face of one of them, it looked, well,
Speaker 1: it looked a little too human, didn't it. Maybe our
Speaker 1: shape shifter has a greater range than we thought. Impandulu
Speaker 1: the Pandulu the lightning bird from South African myth. That
Speaker 1: bird also creates lightning, but it's considered much more malevolent. Right.
Speaker 1: It's vampiric, isn't it, And it can disguise itself as human.
Speaker 1: Maybe it was in the middle of transformation or something,
Speaker 1: or maybe it was a thunderbird and it was simply
Speaker 1: trying to protect its domain. I don't know that's possible too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: maybe if it had a human mouth along with those claws,
Speaker 1: that could be our cow killer. Well, whatever it was,
Speaker 1: we better hope that it went back into the forest
Speaker 1: and not farther out looking for dinner. Okay, so we
Speaker 1: need to know how to take it down if we
Speaker 1: encounter it again. I'd say you did pretty well on
Speaker 1: that score. I mean, I can't believe it actually worked.
Speaker 1: I know, right, Holy shit, did I just do? Imagine?
Speaker 1: I think you did. Wow, that's amazing. What room exactly?
Speaker 1: Was that one for protection? Not banishment? I guess that's
Speaker 1: maybe the best way to protect against them. Well, it
Speaker 1: didn't get rid of all of them, so maybe one
Speaker 1: of these rooms Peyton gave me will do that. Oh wait, no,
Speaker 1: don't banish them all? What wouldn't you want to study it,
Speaker 1: show it to the world, prove that monsters actually exist.
Speaker 1: Peyton made it very clear that keeping the secrets of
Speaker 1: the phayrealm is vital. Think about the kind of chaos
Speaker 1: that would ensue if if people the phayrealm. You didn't
Speaker 1: tell her it hadn't come up yet, sop and I
Speaker 1: think that this all, all of this has been the
Speaker 1: work of the realm. That the Bridgewater Triangle is a
Speaker 1: gate from this world to theirs, and that that's where
Speaker 1: all of these creatures are coming from. WHOA, yeah, and look,
Speaker 1: not many people know this, so you cannot tell the
Speaker 1: other legend trippers. Okay, yeah, Mum's the word. So we've
Speaker 1: been working on closing the gate. And there's this whole
Speaker 1: deal that's been in place, I guess for centuries. That
Speaker 1: explains some of the missing people throughout the years. And
Speaker 1: it seems like with the old Bridgewater Gathering more or
Speaker 1: less now defunct, it's maybe up to us to fix it.
Speaker 1: That's what you're doing. You're not just doing research for
Speaker 1: your class. By the way, I am really a professor.
Speaker 1: It just happened to be a professor who's actually gotten
Speaker 1: in very over his head. Wow, you know, like an
Speaker 1: os goot, Indiana Jones. This isn't a movie, Okay, it's
Speaker 1: real life, is our lives? Look, I didn't mean so
Speaker 1: if there's anything you know that you're not telling us,
Speaker 1: you really need to what. No, I'm not hiding anything
Speaker 1: from you, guys. I wouldn't do that. I mean I
Speaker 1: want to help. I like to think I already have.
Speaker 1: She has. I think we're covered. You know as well
Speaker 1: as I how expansive all these legends are, how unreliable
Speaker 1: and vague they can be. I know your experts, but
Speaker 1: it seems like maybe we each have gaps in knowledge
Speaker 1: that the other ones can fill. Just let me help.
Speaker 1: She knows how to help. I can't hurt, and we
Speaker 1: would have been torn to shreds if she hadn't taught
Speaker 1: me that room. I guess. Okay, we should go over
Speaker 1: to the Hoskins and meet up with everyone else, Olivia said,
Speaker 1: she and Thomas. We're going to try and get Lee's
Speaker 1: old radio working. All right, let's see if the coast
Speaker 1: is clear. Stuck what I don't know? I can't can't.
Speaker 1: I can't get the door knob to turn that h happen?
Speaker 1: Can you everything is unlocked. I don't know what's Uh,
Speaker 1: do you want me to give it a try? Yeah? Sure,
Speaker 1: go for it. Yeah, let's up. Oh it feels like
Speaker 1: it's like here, let me help. It's like someone is
Speaker 1: pulling from the other side. What we're trapped? Oh my god,
Speaker 1: we're not through all the stations yet. We've been at
Speaker 1: this for forty five minutes and nothing. I don't know
Speaker 1: that we're ever going to find something. FM didn't have anything.
Speaker 1: But that doesn't mean am well, wow, you have the
Speaker 1: patience of a saint. Yeah, I kind of had to
Speaker 1: oh shit, right, sorry, Oh it's okay. How's your chest?
Speaker 1: Because you sound a little would you stop hovering? I'm okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 1: It's just if you're having anxiety about this whole thing,
Speaker 1: and I can handle it on my own. What with
Speaker 1: the shallow breathing tightness in the chest. Look, I have
Speaker 1: friends with anxiety, and I don't get anxious. It is understandable.
Speaker 1: I mean, we're trying to tune into the place where
Speaker 1: you were trapped, I know, and I just want to
Speaker 1: find it. You know you're safe here, right, Thomas, No,
Speaker 1: I'm not, but I'm not anxious. This It's been happening
Speaker 1: every couple of hours today. It's always something something what
Speaker 1: I don't belong here, Olivia, which is why I need
Speaker 1: to figure this out. Wait, go back, stop stop stuff there?
Speaker 1: That that that's the music, Nan and I heard when
Speaker 1: the house went nuts? What what station is this? Nine twelves? What?
Speaker 1: How's that possible? Hey? How's it going in here? Hey?
Speaker 1: Are you okay? Yeah? And Shelley? Yeah, picking up some
Speaker 1: food for all of us. I think she needed some
Speaker 1: time to herself. But we're you know, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't think that things are broken beyond repair. So
Speaker 1: good good, Yeah, but I'm sure she love to talk
Speaker 1: with you at some point tonight, So really i'd love that. Okay.
Speaker 1: So hi, Nana. I can't find any evidence that this
Speaker 1: particular station has ever been registered anywhere. Wait is that music?
Speaker 1: I know? Station nine twelve on AM radio? I mean
Speaker 1: no idea who owns the frequency or where the broadcast
Speaker 1: is coming from? Yeah? I thought all AM stations ended
Speaker 1: in zero? Yeah they do. So what this is some
Speaker 1: kind of pirate radio? More likely magic radio? Now what
Speaker 1: we wait for a voice? See if Alden is still
Speaker 1: trying to call out? You said you thought that music
Speaker 1: was coming from the other side, not the liminal. So
Speaker 1: maybe there's another station that's tapped into the in between,
Speaker 1: or things are so thin between worlds that the other
Speaker 1: side is bleeding through and drowning everything else out. Ah, okay,
Speaker 1: so we're stuck magic, some kind of creature a run maybe,
Speaker 1: whatever it is. I don't think getting out of here
Speaker 1: is going to be easy. What the fuck? Why is
Speaker 1: it dark all of a sudden, and what's what the fuck?
Speaker 1: I'm a little more focused on the fact that everything
Speaker 1: seems to be moving. It's like we're looking through a
Speaker 1: fun house mirror. What the hell is that? I thought
Speaker 1: maybe it was old glass. No, that's definitely just what
Speaker 1: the outside looks like now, and that's not a way
Speaker 1: out either. Not the going outside is particularly appealing at
Speaker 1: the moment. Sh do you do you hear that it's music?
Speaker 1: I wonder if that's the same as that has to
Speaker 1: be right. I totally get what Olivia meant by wrong now.
Speaker 1: It doesn't really sound like music is supposed to. What
Speaker 1: are you guys talking about? The woman who lives here
Speaker 1: and she and her granddaughter heard music the other day
Speaker 1: when the house was shaking an earthquake, we don't think
Speaker 1: so if those incidents were the veil between worlds and
Speaker 1: Freetown force getting weaker on the other realm bleeding through,
Speaker 1: then and we might be inside the liminal now, oh god, Okay, okay, everybody,
Speaker 1: stay calm. We'll find our way out of this. Okay,
Speaker 1: She's right, she's right. Maybe we just need to wait
Speaker 1: it out. Eventually, whatever weird force was coming out of
Speaker 1: Freetown making everything quiet, it did retreat before, right, So
Speaker 1: it's it's almost like a tide that goes in and out.
Speaker 1: So where we just sit here and wait for it
Speaker 1: to go out again. Well, I don't know. I just
Speaker 1: think we need to keep our heads. Okay, what exactly
Speaker 1: did you do with that run? What? Everything was completely
Speaker 1: normal until you showed up, Vip, And I was the
Speaker 1: one who did the run. No, no, not that one,
Speaker 1: the one that she carved right before everything went to shit.
Speaker 1: I don't get while you're trusting her, Jeremy, you barely know, aren't.
Speaker 1: She was clearly stalking you. Oh who woa, whoa whoa.
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to help, And oh exactly do you
Speaker 1: think you're helping? You? Say? Peyton made a mistake with
Speaker 1: the ruin, but the moment you carved it, those things
Speaker 1: attacked us and then this happened. Look, I'm not I'm
Speaker 1: not trying to disturp your position here or anything. Excuse me. Look,
Speaker 1: I get it. You've been Jeremy's tea for a long
Speaker 1: time and you're used to being his right hand man.
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to take that from you. Who exactly
Speaker 1: do you think you are? Okay? Okay, okay, okay, why
Speaker 1: why don't we all this? Can? Can? Can we all
Speaker 1: just take a deep breath here? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, that's
Speaker 1: a that's a good idea. I'm just gonna, well, I
Speaker 1: can't get some fresh air, so I'm just gonna jesus,
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. I've never seen rip and do anything
Speaker 1: like that before. It's okay, I mean we're in a
Speaker 1: tough spot. I get it. You know. I haven't been
Speaker 1: following you or anything, right, those those first few times
Speaker 1: we ran into each other. No, no, of course not obviously,
Speaker 1: and you've been a big house. Yeah. Yeah, it's nice
Speaker 1: to have someone around who gets this stuff and who
Speaker 1: I don't know. This is gonna sound strange to say
Speaker 1: at a time like this, but you've been a very
Speaker 1: calming presence. I'm not sure Vippin would agree. I'm not
Speaker 1: sure you would either. He's usually very easy going. I'm
Speaker 1: I'm sure he'll warm up to you. I think this.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's obviously pretty stressed about the whole situation,
Speaker 1: and you're not. No, I am definitely. I have a
Speaker 1: special personal interest in all of this, which is that
Speaker 1: my father. My father's Thomas Bradshaw. And I assume, given
Speaker 1: your hobbies, you're familiar with his name, right, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: of course I am. Oh, holy shit, I had no idea.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm so sorry. No, no, it's actually actually okay,
Speaker 1: you don't need to be sorry. What do you mean?
Speaker 1: He's back, like alive and back. It turns out he
Speaker 1: was never dead at all. After all this time he
Speaker 1: was he was stuck in this in between space, a
Speaker 1: liminal that's that's what you guys called it, right right,
Speaker 1: and he was trapped there this whole time. And some
Speaker 1: kind of sacrifice to the fae and then Celeste, that's
Speaker 1: the old gathering leader, she did this ritual that brought
Speaker 1: him back, except it seems to have broken everything else.
Speaker 1: The monsters as I see it, the liminal is some
Speaker 1: kind of stop gap between our world and the other one,
Speaker 1: and without two people in there, it stops functioning, right
Speaker 1: And you think that's where we are right now. I
Speaker 1: think maybe maybe it's seeping out of its usual dimension.
Speaker 1: That's the fear of what will happen if we don't
Speaker 1: close the gate, that the Faye Realm will just come
Speaker 1: pouring into our world. It's happening again. I'm hearing myself
Speaker 1: talk and it sounds crazy. Well, okay, but that doesn't
Speaker 1: mean it's not true. I mean, I think of it
Speaker 1: this way. You just saved us from a pretty hitchcocky
Speaker 1: in situation by waving your hands, So that's not that absurd.
Speaker 1: Oh gosh, okay, So all these attacks, these monsters there here,
Speaker 1: we think because the gate is open, if we're in
Speaker 1: the liminal right now, or I guess if the liminal
Speaker 1: has come to us, do you think we could get
Speaker 1: into the Fay Realm. I don't know. My dad was
Speaker 1: in there for years and never figured out how to
Speaker 1: pass through. He tried, I don't know. I don't know
Speaker 1: what he could have tried. Did he know about the
Speaker 1: runs about magic? Well? I assume falling into a different
Speaker 1: dimension made him realize that magic was real. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: if he didn't know how to use it, maybe we could.
Speaker 1: Olivia did say that she thought the music wasn't coming
Speaker 1: from the liminal but from the other side, So maybe
Speaker 1: what happened to the music? Do you think the tie
Speaker 1: is going back out? I'm not. I'm not sure. What
Speaker 1: the hell what was that? I think there's something in
Speaker 1: that bad. Did you guys hear that? Yeah? The music
Speaker 1: stopped too. That can't be good, right, Oh, maybe it
Speaker 1: means that there's more distance between us and the other side.
Speaker 1: Maybe that that's not a bad thing, right? What there? Oh?
Speaker 1: Do you see something? You don't see? There? I don't
Speaker 1: see it. I don't see it. What is it? Are
Speaker 1: you serious? You can't see it? That's taking up an
Speaker 1: entire wall. Okay, Vippin, it's just calm down. What do
Speaker 1: you see? It's it's almost in the shape of a person,
Speaker 1: and it's moving. Oh god, it's it's it's coming off
Speaker 1: the wall. Oh hell, you really? I don't see it? No,
Speaker 1: I know. Okay, maybe it's a trick of the light.
Speaker 1: Are you okay? Well I heard that ship? Ship ship?
Speaker 1: Oh god, oh god, oh god? You see it? Now yeah,
Speaker 1: I see it has horns. I don't know. The whole
Speaker 1: thing has made a slow Oh god, and then run
Speaker 1: is that what? Yeah, that's that. That's a kind of yokai. Right,
Speaker 1: but don't they need bonfires? Apparently not? Okay? Okay, yoki yokai?
Speaker 1: Are there ways pipping? What? How do you repel a yokai? Beads? Beads? What? Soybeans?
Speaker 1: Thick and thick and drive away? Yoki? Oh german him? Yes,
Speaker 1: I got him, I got him, I got him. Go
Speaker 1: go get you see an as any beans. Just just
Speaker 1: I got you. I got you here harpendo being but
Speaker 1: just try it. Shit, just start bulting them go hey ah,
Speaker 1: oh god, holy shit, what the hell is that? Oh
Speaker 1: my god, zippin or live what? I don't know. I
Speaker 1: don't know, Jeremy, how are we hearing this? This? This
Speaker 1: this free have no idea, Jeremy and and Viippen. We're
Speaker 1: going to Freetown today. Maybe who's that? I don't know,
Speaker 1: but I think I know where they are. Jeremy. Whoa,
Speaker 1: whoa there, you're okay, You're okay? Now? H m hm
Speaker 1: is it gone for now? At least? Come on, come on,
Speaker 1: let's sit down. A whoa, thanks thanks for saving me
Speaker 1: with the beans. It was all fipping fast thinking with
Speaker 1: those beans. Whatever that thing was, it wasn't like an
Speaker 1: one or anendra I've read about, and I don't know
Speaker 1: how long it will stay away. Well at least we've
Speaker 1: got some more beans. Ah, did it hurt you? M Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think I think my wrist is broken, hipp and
Speaker 1: go see if there's an ice pack or frozen peas
Speaker 1: or anything. Yeah here, let me see, like if you
Speaker 1: I've broken my fair share of bones before. Yeah, hazard
Speaker 1: of the hobby. I guess. Oh yeah, this is definitely broken,
Speaker 1: but I think I can probably get some kind of
Speaker 1: a splint together here frozen tater talk. Oh sorry, Fhippen.
Speaker 1: Do you think you could try looking for a first
Speaker 1: aid kit, bandage's tongue depressor anything we used to stabilize
Speaker 1: his wrist? I thought I thought the birds were first
Speaker 1: time that you've ever seen a monster? Oh no, I
Speaker 1: guess I can say I've seen two, although I feel
Speaker 1: like I barely saw that, yo guy. So if those
Speaker 1: were your first monster attacks while all the broken bones,
Speaker 1: I'm very clumsy. Uh uh, thanks for holding onto me.
Speaker 1: I thought that thing was going to drag me into hell,
Speaker 1: I probably would have just taken you to the other side, right,
Speaker 1: the fay Realm. Yeah, well sixth one. Do you really
Speaker 1: think it's that bad over there? I don't know, but
Speaker 1: I can't say I'm particularly fond of the residents I've met. Oh, sure,
Speaker 1: but I mean they're just doing what they've been taught
Speaker 1: to do right, protecting their home, following the terms of
Speaker 1: the deal. God doesn't make it right. No, No, but
Speaker 1: I I don't know that we can blame a guard
Speaker 1: dog for biting an intruder? Is that? When you think
Speaker 1: those monsters were guard dogs? What else would they be?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I guess I hadn't really thought about
Speaker 1: who and what the fay Realm actually are. It's been
Speaker 1: a few encounters that were almost certainly puckwadgies, and I'd
Speaker 1: sort of assumed that those were the ones that have
Speaker 1: made the deal. Maybe or maybe the faith themselves haven't
Speaker 1: even come to this side yet. Well, I hope we
Speaker 1: never find out. But magic is real. You just did it,
Speaker 1: and that's that's incredible. We live our whole childhood's reading
Speaker 1: stories about magical worlds and superpowers, and then we grow
Speaker 1: up and find out that those things only exist in
Speaker 1: the realm of our imaginations. But here we are, you
Speaker 1: and me to otherwise normal people, and we've been let
Speaker 1: in on this amazing secret that basically no one else
Speaker 1: knows that all the stories are real, and that if
Speaker 1: we wanted to, we could probably learn all sorts of magic,
Speaker 1: learn how to visit those other worlds. Doesn't that excite you?
Speaker 1: Everything I've encounter in the past few weeks has been terrifying,
Speaker 1: and it feels more like a nightmare coming true than
Speaker 1: a fantasy. But what if that's not all there is
Speaker 1: to this? Come on, are you telling me that in
Speaker 1: all your years of teaching folklore you never once wish
Speaker 1: that all of it was real and you could be
Speaker 1: a part of it. Here some ace bandages, first aid kid,
Speaker 1: and a ruler. I figured that might work as a splint. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's great, thank you. This is probably going to be unpleasant.
Speaker 1: Oh good, something new and different. Hey, we need to
Speaker 1: figure out how we're going to get out of here,
Speaker 1: right before that thing comes back or before something else
Speaker 1: comes through. Okay, what do we know about getting out
Speaker 1: of the fay realm? We shouldn't eat anything we shouldn't
Speaker 1: step into circles, we shouldn't follow music, check, check and
Speaker 1: check what else? Ah Oh, iron repels fairies, turning your
Speaker 1: clothes inside out right church bells. But okay, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: some of those things we can do, and some of
Speaker 1: them maybe we can fake. I think we've probably passed
Speaker 1: the always be polite to fairies stage of Hey, guys,
Speaker 1: what about salt. That's a thing to protect against all
Speaker 1: kinds of paranormal beans, right, I might as well add
Speaker 1: it to the list. It can't hurt. Okay, you finished
Speaker 1: patching him up, and I'll start to gather whatever supplies
Speaker 1: I think might be useful. Thanks. You know I have
Speaker 1: thought about it before, of course, the possibility of it
Speaker 1: all being real. It's actually, um ah sorry, it's actually
Speaker 1: why I got into folklore in the first place. I
Speaker 1: never I never told anyone this before. Now. I'm pretty
Speaker 1: sure there are plenty of people who wouldn't be surprised.
Speaker 1: But I started researching all sorts of things that when
Speaker 1: I was a teenager because I thought, um, I thought,
Speaker 1: maybe if I put the right pieces together, I could
Speaker 1: bring my dad back. I mean, I guess I thought
Speaker 1: some of it must be real. If there were so
Speaker 1: many people in the world. I believed in it, and
Speaker 1: I I even tried some spells and as a team
Speaker 1: I got into Wicca for a bit. I had a
Speaker 1: similar phase, did you. Yeah, And then I realized that
Speaker 1: he was dead and he was never coming back, and
Speaker 1: there was nothing I could do about it. And fuck
Speaker 1: now I realize, of course there was something I could
Speaker 1: have done. Oh, there's no way you could have known.
Speaker 1: All the research in the world wouldn't have led you
Speaker 1: to what's actually happening. I know, but I'm still I'm angry.
Speaker 1: I think I'm angry that magic is real and that
Speaker 1: this is what it's giving me. It's a life forty
Speaker 1: years without my father and monsters breaking my bones. And
Speaker 1: can I tell you something I've never told anyone? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I lied. I do remember a little bit about when
Speaker 1: I went missing as a kid. Really, I think I
Speaker 1: was somewhere else, somewhere else. I don't know if I
Speaker 1: was in the same place your dad was. It doesn't
Speaker 1: sound like it. Wherever I was, it was beautiful. It
Speaker 1: looked like Freetown forest, but better, brighter. Everything smelled better,
Speaker 1: tasted better, felt better. I mean, maybe I wandered off
Speaker 1: and ate some drugged up mushrooms or something. But whatever happened,
Speaker 1: I've been trying to figure it out ever since, trying
Speaker 1: to recapture it. I mean, if I'm honest, do you
Speaker 1: think I'm just totally off my rocker? Well, if you are,
Speaker 1: I am, I get it a little. I mean when
Speaker 1: I did that run, I don't know if I can
Speaker 1: describe this, but it felt what I felt. It felt incredible.
Speaker 1: I don't know how to describe anyway. I think I
Speaker 1: would definitely want to feel that again, and that it
Speaker 1: scares me. What doesn't have to be scary? I mean,
Speaker 1: if doing magic felt good and protected you, how can
Speaker 1: it be bad? Here? Keep that on as long as
Speaker 1: you can. Look. I get being angry and scared, But
Speaker 1: everything we've ever been taught about magic tells us that
Speaker 1: it doesn't need to be bad, right, I mean, in
Speaker 1: every legend, there's always light magic and dark magic. It's
Speaker 1: about the user, not the magic itself. Well, do you
Speaker 1: think we could use magic to get out of here?
Speaker 1: I don't just mean here, I mean the whole deal.
Speaker 1: The Faye Court are famously not very generous negotiators. Well,
Speaker 1: what if the deal wasn't broken? But changed. What if
Speaker 1: I don't know, merge the world somehow. You mean, let
Speaker 1: them Faye realms seep out into ours, Let magic exist here.
Speaker 1: The Faye use it to keep their gate closed, and
Speaker 1: we use it to keep our gate closed, and no
Speaker 1: one has to sit in the liminal. Why would the
Speaker 1: fay realm ever go for something like that? What if
Speaker 1: the gates were closed but not locked, accessible to those
Speaker 1: who knew, able to pass through from one world to
Speaker 1: the next. Wouldn't you want to see it if you
Speaker 1: could the other side. I don't know if I trust it.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen any magic that's led me to believe
Speaker 1: that it's a stable or positive force. It just saved
Speaker 1: our lives. It brought your dad back. Yeah, but it
Speaker 1: took him away first, but it brought him back. And
Speaker 1: on top of that, you now have more time together
Speaker 1: than you ever would have if he'd stayed an age normally.
Speaker 1: You have your whole lives to get to know each other,
Speaker 1: for him to know his grandkids and great grandkids. What
Speaker 1: a gift that is. I didn't know you were such
Speaker 1: a glass half full person. I don't need to be
Speaker 1: a glass half full person because the glass is magic
Speaker 1: fair enough. But you might actually have a point. Maybe
Speaker 1: there is a way to make all of this work
Speaker 1: for us, for the other side to be an ally
Speaker 1: not an enemy. My thoughts exactly. Well, first things first
Speaker 1: have to figure out how to get out of here,
Speaker 1: yeah and fast. I don't get it. Are you sure
Speaker 1: it's unlocked? I know how to unlock my own front door.
Speaker 1: I'm still not getting anything from the station. Maybe whatever
Speaker 1: was going on is over, or something much worse happened.
Speaker 1: Let me try. It feels like, yeah, like someone's pulling
Speaker 1: from the other side, right, Jeremy, Jeremy, Jeremy, Hippen. What
