patterning could get out.
0:08
>> What makes you think the pattern?
0:11
Welcome back. I'm [snorts] glad to see
0:14
you up and about.
0:16
I guess you've uh heard that Arish has
0:20
stepped down, so I'll be overseeing all
0:23
critical operations for the time being.
0:25
Arish's misguided activation of the CFD
0:28
made one thing clear. We don't
0:30
understand what we're dealing with.
0:39
>> Arish stepped down. In a sense,
0:44
removing Arish from active duty was a a
0:46
mutual decision. For the past seven
0:49
years, this new crisis, it's it's having
0:52
an effect on all of us.
0:54
When Arish and I first became acting
0:56
co-directors, I'm sure I'd be the first
0:59
to break.
1:01
I don't know how Jesse handled this
1:02
alone. I think Jesse would agree that
1:05
finding a way to stop the patterning is
1:07
now priority number one. Now, his
1:09
entities can be shot, but we have no way
1:12
to combat the pattern resonance. It's
1:14
altering the foundational elements of
1:16
our reality. We need answers. Now, our
1:19
rangers discovered that the CFD caused
1:21
the sinkhole to pattern even deeper. So,
1:23
I sent a team of four researchers down
1:26
to investigate any methods of impeding
1:28
the patterning,
1:30
but they've run into trouble.
1:37
>> Let me guess, they need help. My help?
1:41
>> Yes.
1:43
Look, the team's comms have broken down.
1:45
No research data is being transmitted,
1:47
and their messages seem well,
1:50
incoherent.
1:51
Now, the team is led by Agent Schultz
1:54
and includes one of my top
1:56
paraphysicists, Dr. Grist. Their
1:58
research is vital to humanity's
2:01
survival.
2:02
I want you to find the team and secure
2:05
their data. Now, they went into the
2:07
sinkhole using the escape route you
2:09
found below the laundromat. Oh, one more
2:12
thing. Uh Langston keeps filing
2:14
requests. Something about his uh
2:16
apartment in the city. Can you take care
2:18
of it?
2:28
Pope,
2:29
>> did you know that the director is
2:31
expected to resolve interpersonal staff
2:33
conflicts? So, bureau agents who are
2:35
outside during the lockdown can't agree
2:36
on almost anything with bureau agents
2:39
who are inside, break times, trading
2:41
shifts, which chairs need replacing in
2:43
the field office. And apparently, they
2:46
can't figure it out for themselves. I'm
2:48
I'm sorry. How How can I help you?
3:00
>> Pope, when I saw Jesse, it was inside a
3:04
place between dimensions. She called it
3:07
a fault.
3:08
>> No, we always theorized that that there
3:10
might be thin places between dimensions.
3:12
and not quite a threshold, but areas
3:15
where if something were strong enough,
3:17
it it could leak through or or where the
3:20
walls between dimensions could degrade
3:22
more and more until one day there's a
3:25
hole.
3:27
I I have so many questions, but no, for
3:30
now, I I'll I'll just keep taking
3:32
measurements from your MCD.
3:34
>> I don't know where she is, Pope. I I
3:37
can't hold on to the connection.
3:39
>> No, we just have to trust her, Dylan.
3:41
That's all we can do.
3:45
>> What?
3:46
>> Oh. Uh, Dylan, you know the resident
3:48
entity you fought inside the factory?
3:51
>> Uh,
3:52
yeah.
3:53
>> We think he was an FBC employee. He
3:55
worked with the furnace and disappeared
3:58
years ago before the lockdown. Maybe
4:00
some people assumed. I guess it doesn't
4:03
matter now, but it's a shame. I I never
4:06
really knew him. Anyway, I I just
4:09
thought I should tell you.
4:15
>> You said before
4:17
that Dr. Darling had disappeared.
4:20
>> Oh, right. Uh, no. I I I guess I
4:23
wouldn't have told you when you were
4:24
locked in containment. Uh, well, Dr.
4:28
Darling disappeared a long time ago,
4:30
shortly before the uh the invaded the
4:33
oldest house, and we have no idea where
4:35
he is. Thanks for letting me know,
4:39
>> Dylan.
4:40
For what it's worth, Dr. Darling's lack
4:44
of ethics during your training was
4:48
inexcusable.
4:52
>> Hope
4:52
>> Dylan, thanks to you, we've discovered
4:55
something new about resonant entities.
4:57
See, we already knew that they were
4:59
humans transformed by the patterning.
5:01
But now I suspect that what separates
5:03
them from everyone else is that they may
5:05
have had a a susceptibility to the
5:07
paranal,
5:09
>> like parutilitarians.
5:11
>> No, not precisely. No, I'm not talking
5:13
about paranal power. I'm talking about
5:15
like a vulnerability or an openness. But
5:18
I'll know more soon. Thank you for your
5:20
help with this.
5:28
I found a door. It's constantly changing
5:31
shape and form. I went through it and
5:33
ended up in another part of the city.
5:36
>> I'm sorry. You You used it? I mean, no.
5:38
We We know about the door. It showed up
5:40
in the field office yesterday, but no
5:42
one's been able to approach it, let
5:43
alone walk through it. And you're saying
5:46
it displaced you physically to another
5:49
location in the city? I mean, was it
5:51
instantaneous?
5:53
Almost.
5:54
>> Well, how far did you travel? I did you
5:56
feel differently when you got there? And
5:58
was it one way or could you have gone
6:00
back the other? No. Okay. Sorry. We'll
6:02
we'll get to this later. But this is
6:04
great, Dylan. This is this is really
6:06
great. Keep using the door. I can I can
6:08
gather data via your MCD. Now that we
6:11
know what it does, we can study it
6:13
properly. I I can't wait.
6:17
Hey,
6:18
>> barrier. What is it, Dylan?
6:27
What exactly are black rock injectors?
6:30
Oh yeah.
6:31
>> Uh liquid black rock mostly. Well mixed
6:33
with some sodium chloride and
6:34
anti-coagulants to prevent blood clots.
6:37
See the problem is that black rock is
6:39
excreted rapidly from the body. So a
6:41
constant intravenous infusion is
6:43
required to maintain anti-his properties
6:46
in the user. So, injectors are
6:49
imperfect, but hey, perfect is the enemy
6:53
of good, right?
7:01
>> Should I use a black rock injector, too?
7:03
>> No. No, I I don't think so. You an
7:06
injector on a on a parutilitarian like
7:08
yourself might just dampen the the
7:10
variabilities that you need for this
7:12
operation, and it's unnecessary, Dylan.
7:15
For whatever reason, you you seem to
7:17
have your own immunity.
7:25
>> Dylan, my research team is still waiting
7:27
in the underpass. Don't procrastinate,
7:29
okay? And no need to sign in on your way
7:31
through the laundromat. Everyone knows
7:32
you're coming.
