Speaker 4: I didn't expect anyone in this early.

7
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 5: Today's the big day, isn't it?

8
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:35,840
Speaker 3: Yes?

9
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 4: I suppose it is.

10
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 5: If you've come to help, then just give me a task.

11
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 6: Well, at the altar, there's a stack of pamphlets that

12
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 6: can be passed out on the.

13
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 4: Seatbacks, six per pew on it. I must say, you

14
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 4: seem especially chipper today.

15
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 2: Who me don't take so just my normal charming self.

16
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 4: Things are going well?

17
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 7: Then, well, let's see, still locked up in a labyrinthine prison,

18
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,320
Speaker 7: with no idea as to the reason, no autonomy as

19
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 7: to what happens to me, and little to any hope

20
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 7: about a future that includes freedom.

21
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 2: Soon, I'd say, about the same. But who's counting?

22
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 4: I see there is.

23
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 8: Something something more like someone someone here, Yes, someone special.

24
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 5: You remember the woman I told you about, the one

25
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 5: I saw barefoot outside my cell the first night I

26
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 5: was here.

27
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 4: The one who was singing to you, Well, she was singing.

28
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 5: I wouldn't necessarily say to me, but uh, anyways, Yeah,

29
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 5: we've seen each other again a few times.

30
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 3: You don't have to explain. But would you mind if

31
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 3: I say I'm happy for you?

32
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 2: Yeah?

33
00:01:58,440 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 5: It's nice, right.

34
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 3: We all need other people.

35
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 4: It is through those relationships that we learn about ourselves.

36
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 6: Paradoxically, it is only by learning about ourselves that we

37
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 6: may honestly understand others. And to that end, it is

38
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 6: most important that we not lose sight of our own

39
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 6: individuality in the reflection of another person's mirror.

40
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 5: Why would you say that, I.

41
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,359
Speaker 3: Must be thinking about myself.

42
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 2: Six pamphlets per pew. What's next?

43
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,399
Speaker 3: Syh? I appreciate the help, but I think you'd better

44
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 3: be off.

45
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 5: Wait, you're sending me away?

165
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 3: There once was a king, and in celebration and reverence,

166
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 3: a blacksmith came to him and presented him with a

167
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 3: weapon that he'd make just for the king. And it

168
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 3: was beautiful and special and unlike anything else, And the

169
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 3: king was touched. And so the king went to war.

170
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 3: His armies decimated their opponents without contest, and the king

171
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 3: felt he owed it all to the blacksmith, and this weapon,

172
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 3: it was made just for war. So the king called

173
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 3: the blacksmith back, and he said to him, I want

174
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,080
Speaker 3: all my generals to have these, to which the black

175
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 3: smith replied, my King, it takes months of dedication and

176
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 3: skilled to build even one. I can't possibly make enough

177
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 3: for all of your generals. I'll need to train apprentices.

178
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 3: But then the technique will no longer be secret. So

179
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 3: I need your blessing. Then the king gave his blessing, saying,

180
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 3: whatever it takes so that each one of my generals

181
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:26,719
Speaker 3: have one. And so the blacksmith went to train five apprentices.

182
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 3: No Yah, hold me.

183
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 10: Something how, then sory back to your station. Nahi project

184
00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 10: for machine shop needs attention, medical extraction, biohezard, CLEANUPCA, repair, inact, replacement.

185
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 4: What a mess could be a lot worse.

186
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 3: At least he isn't screaming grab his arms.

187
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 2: I'll get the machine.

188
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 4: I've got biohazard. I can see the concern on your

189
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 4: face that man no longer works here and is no

190
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 4: longer our concern. When he leaves his room, that will

191
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 4: be life.

192
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 6: Remember, Let life be life, Let work be work.

193
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 3: The blacksmiths apprentices were able to build weapons for each

194
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 3: of the generals, and the King's army continued to expand

195
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 3: and conquer. Then the generals went to the blacksmith to say,

196
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 3: these weapons are incredible. If all of our soldiers had them,

197
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 3: the King's glory could spread even further. And so the

198
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 3: blacksmith went to his apprentices and told each of them

199
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:19,439
Speaker 3: to train more apprentices. But the apprentices were haunted by

200
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 3: the hundreds of souls whose lives had been claimed, and

201
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 3: so the apprentices trained the soldiers to make their own weapons.

202
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 9: Good morning, project for have a pleasant workday.

203
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 2: New day, New Part.

204
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 3: Now that every soldier had a weapon themselves, the army

205
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 3: was unstoppable. The King's dominion continued to expand as they

206
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,559
Speaker 3: conquered lands far and wide. Still they needed more weapons,

207
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 3: for the greater the kingdom grew, the more there was

208
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 3: to protect and defend. But now the soldiers were haunted

209
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 3: by the ghosts of those slain, and they needed to

210
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 3: find someone else to build the weapons for them.

211
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 5: So who did they train the slaves.

212
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 11: Good afternoon, Project Fall. Your workday is over. Please proceed

213
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 11: to security screening. Good morning, Project Fall, Have a pleasant work.

214
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 2: Day, a day New Part.

215
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 3: Things in the Kingdom were good, but in order to

216
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 3: build all of these weapons, they had depleted the resources

217
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 3: of the land. Mills had been built all along the river,

218
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 3: so the fish were getting harder to find and catch.

219
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 3: There was a hard winter, and the crops died, and

220
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 3: the animals and wild game were thinned out. And when

221
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 3: there wasn't enough food, the first people to beat denied

222
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 3: were the slaves. So while the king sat in his castle,

223
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 3: safe and sound with all the food in the world.

224
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 3: The slaves were out in the barren lands, starving. Many

225
00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 3: had come from the lands the king had conquered, remembered

226
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 3: their burning homes, the dead families, death with no conscience,

227
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 3: but never without consequence. Altogether, the slaves outnumbered the soldiers

228
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 3: and the guards and the generals, and they overthrew them all,

229
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 3: even the king, with the same weapons that had conquered them.

230
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 2: But then, weren't they haunted by the ghosts?

231
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 3: Did you understand the story?

232
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 4: Project for room needs attention, medical extraction and bile hazard only.

233
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 9: Good morning, project for have a pleasant work.

234
00:16:50,600 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 5: Day, New day, new part. Wait, this is not a

235
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 5: new part today. One of the parts repeated.

236
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 3: You don't say, look.

237
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 5: Can I ask you something? What was the weapon?

238
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 3: You ever notice when you leave here? How Thomas only

239
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,000
Speaker 3: sort of half pays attention to the metal detector.

240
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 5: I guess I hadn't really thought about it.

241
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 3: What about yourself? The screws? Ever? Toss it? Toss it,

242
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 3: you know, search through it, check the mattress, snack the toilet.

243
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 5: You know what?

244
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 2: No, they never have.

245
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,880
Speaker 3: Some of these people, they don't belong here. And the

246
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 3: pen knows it. Listen, your parts are repeating. This place

247
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 3: wants something from you, or to show you something, or

248
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 3: maybe it wants you to do something.

249
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 5: You're saying, what that the pen has a consciousness.

250
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,399
Speaker 3: At least an influence. Haven't you felt it?

251
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,199
Speaker 5: What is it supposed to feel like?

252
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:09,400
Speaker 3: You ever leave somewhere? Sure you forgot something but can't

253
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,439
Speaker 3: remember what it is. It's that sort of feeling. It's

254
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 3: not constant, but I bet you feel it, don't you.

255
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 5: I feel like that every single day. But just saying,

256
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 5: you're right, how do I know what it wants?

257
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 3: Think of it as a puzzle.

258
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 11: Good afternoon, project Ful. Your workday is over. Please proceed

259
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 11: to security screening.

260
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 4: Siary.

261
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 2: Oh shit, you know what? I left the blank in

262
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 2: my pocket.

263
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 5: I was just about to start a piece right before lunch,

264
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:13,360
Speaker 5: and I totally forgot about it.

265
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:16,199
Speaker 2: Could you please hand this to Thomas.

266
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,880
Speaker 4: Thank you, siriy. Please be mindful in the future, naturally.

267
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 9: Good morning, project for have a pleasant work.

268
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:52,480
Speaker 5: Day, New day, old part. I did exactly what you said.

269
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,120
Speaker 5: I've got one of each of the parts in my cell.

270
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 3: Good.

271
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 5: They took the blank from my pocket but didn't even

272
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 5: think to look at my sock. It's such an obvious trick.

273
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 2: I can't believe it actually worked.

274
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 3: Maybe it was supposed to them.

275
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 5: Okay, but what do I do now? How do I

276
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:06,679
Speaker 5: put the pieces together?

277
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 3: How should I know?

278
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 4: Project four room needs attention, medical extraction, biohazard clean up,

279
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:22,400
Speaker 4: mechanical repair.

280
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 11: Good afternoon, project for your workday is over. Please proceed

281
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,440
Speaker 11: to security screening.

282
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 9: Light's apt.

283
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:47,919
Speaker 4: Okay.

284
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 8: If it is a puzzle and there must be a solution, somehow,

285
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 8: these all have to fit together, maybe like this, maybe

286
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 8: like this.

287
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 5: Maybe this is impossible. Maybe I'm insane. The pen doesn't

288
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 5: want anything from you, Siurie. It's not the fucking Overlook Hotel.

289
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 5: The only influence that has over people is to crush

290
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 5: their spirits into submission, to make them crazy, a remaningless

291
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 5: minutial like this, and steal their souls in the process.

292
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:30,199
Speaker 5: They have the kingdom, the generals, the soldiers, and all

293
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 5: the weapons. All you have is a contraband stack of

294
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 5: scrap metal that's going to get you throw them back

295
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 5: in the fucking dungeon. Bad and delusions of grandeur that

296
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 5: anything you do in this life could actually make a difference.

297
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 5: Holy Mother of God, it's a key.

298
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 2: At least I think it's a key, but it's not

299
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 2: a normal door key.

300
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 5: It sort of looks like like.

301
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,479
Speaker 3: This could be a key, could be anything.

302
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 5: Let's say it is a key, what do you think

303
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 5: it opens?

304
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 3: Well? Do you think it opens?

305
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 5: I have no idea, and.

306
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,880
Speaker 3: I don't know anything more than you. But you put

307
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:15,919
Speaker 3: facts and observations together, and sooner or later you'll understand things,

308
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:21,199
Speaker 3: or at least you think you do. Anyway, that was fast.

309
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 3: It took me hundreds of tries before my part's finally repeated.

310
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 3: You mean I already finished my puzzle. I've just been

311
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 3: waiting to use it. What is that device?

312
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 5: A device that.

313
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:35,680
Speaker 3: Does what we're about to find out?

314
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:36,359
Speaker 10: Wait?

315
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 3: Hold on, do you understand the story now?

316
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, the pen is the kingdom. We are the.

317
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 3: Sleeves, but we're also holding the weapons because they taught

318
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 3: us how to build them.

319
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 5: You're saying that things.

320
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,439
Speaker 3: When we go back to the shop, you leave. Do

321
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 3: you understand, no questions, no looking back, just to leave. Yeah, listen,
