KotN Actual Play Podcast 119 - Visiting the Past
[music] Hello, and welcome to Night to the Night actual play podcast. This World of Darkness story, Shagrin, was written and run by your storyteller Scott. And now, please enjoy episode 119, trying to visit the past. Actual play starts 16 minutes, 33 seconds. Okay, before we get into the podcast, we have a little bit of feedback to go over, and thank you, everyone, for sending it in after I pitched last week, playing the two in so many feet. No, he whined. He whined. Yeah, he was more of a whined than a bitch, or a complaint. He was. But we still don't have any new iTunes reviews. Wow. Isn't that sad? I got a fucking whined. I got a whined. Alright. The first bit of feedback we have is from the KOTN blog page, and this was one on episode 90, so it's a callback from way back, in which Terence says, "Hey guys, I got away from the podcast for a while, but I'm coming back to it. I'm really enjoying delivery. Actually, I kind of went backwards as I returned to Shagrin, and I'm now going back to delivery." Maybe next to shit luck. Yes. I have to wonder, though, is there anything London gives a shit about, except wine and cash. Jeez. Women? Men. Men. Occasionally, if it's like a Minajatwa kind of thing going on, I'm sure. I mean, he definitely experiments. Is there more? Yes. "The wand deserves better than the likes of London." Wow. That's harsh. I've not obviously meant to get that context. I'm like, I'm really embarrassed to appreciate the finest things in life. It was a mystery how I accidentally found that. Yeah, I did. Well, first of all, I was not doing it correctly. I was going to the blog site and looking at our most recent posts, looking for people who responded. It's not very intelligent if people respond from way back. There's actually a place that lists the comments in most recent order, and that's how Mike found this. I mean, I will use that from now on, moving forward. So we won't lose people that post on old episodes. So thank you, Terrence, for that. Yep. Thanks for the comments, Terrence. We also had some feedback as misguided as they might be. That's right. I thought they were funny. Brilliant. Right on. Facebook, Episode 118, Taylor McClure says, "Well, if you like Dungeon World, you might consider giving Apocalypse World a look. It uses many of the same basic mechanics as Dungeon World, and in fact, Dungeon World started out as a mod of Apocalypse World. There are tons of Apocalypse World clone games out there if you're interested." So thank you very much, Taylor. And I didn't know that, but I had forgotten that, and I went back and took a look at Apocalypse World. It was like a Zonda game? It's, well, it's, you know, end of the world-type thing, and it looks really interesting, but I think if we're going to play anything, we're probably only done with Dungeon World because we were looking for something that was fantasy-based. Yes. And we'll never try it at Apocalypse World, but I think Mike needs to get his heroic palette done. Let's not make it about anyone. Oh, no. It's about you. It's all about you. I won't run Dungeon World for you. There will be no children in danger. And you can get it done. Play it, Alvin, Paladin. Alvin, Paladin. Hi-yah. Who does not trip over any type of what you want to obstacle? We will call him Surefoot. That will be it. You'll never miss. Keebler? Surefoot. Sounds like something's going to be alive. But you wonder why he died. So thank you for the suggestion, Taylor. We also had a response from Ari, who said, "I am seconding Taylor's suggestion. I've been in an Apocalypse World campaign for a couple of years now, and it's excellent, especially for an active player like myself. And by active, I mean playing an active character, taking initiative, pushing things on words. It's a simple system yet rewarding and gives opportunity for you to think outside the box, too. The review of Dungeon World Session was nice. They'll play inside of actual play, and it would be interesting to see how your capable crew tweaks the D&D cliche. P.S. I just got myself another Apocalypse World hack, the monster of the week, which is quite like the Hunter game. Hmm. Maybe I should try running shit luck with those rules. So if you do, Ari, let us know that would be interesting to me here, thanks for the suggestion as well. Roy from the Rusek Amers said, "If you want to hear a Dungeon World AP, check out the Rusek Amers," and it gives the link. He was referring to Episode 80, 81, 85, through 87, where they covered a Dungeon World. In fact, I had already listened to it, so I just got set up to our listeners as well. So thank you for that suggestion. The Rusek Amers also did Savage Worlds, Dread Noir, which is an interesting adventure. That's what they're on currently. But he said that they got more feedback from their Dungeon World episodes than anything else so far. Cool. I always go to broaden our horizons and try some different things, and besides, Mike needs to get his horror fantasy out there. It's all about you, Mike. They're like focusing on you. I think it's not just about Mike, because now we've played twice. Jon, Thomas, you guys still digging it? Dungeon World? Uh, I wish I wasn't so good. Yeah. That shouldn't be a problem in it, is. The game, no one cares. It's exactly opposite of your character in World of Darkness. It sounds like if Scott was a jam, we'd be leveling like crazy. The way those mechanics work is you roll two six-sided dice. If it's six or less, you fail, and you get an experience point. So Jon, who is rolling like, "Shit, he's already leveled," and Mark is the same. Thomas is rolling really well, but he's behind the curve, because he's doing too well in the game. Anyways, Roy, you're finished up by saying, "By the way, we love Dungeon World. The reason we stopped playing was that GM was having real-life interference. Dungeon World has a great feel, and it's a lot of fun. And much like burning wheel, it's even fun if you fail. Of course, you guys should also try fiasco. Of course, you guys, you know. That's like our fans, Anthem, and we should try it. I'm up for it. I don't know exactly, I don't know what the problems are. Alright, on 118 Richard Watts also posted saying, "Listening to this episode while running, per usual." And I nearly fell down a couple times from trying not to laugh at the flying agents in the Channel 1 comments. I'm honestly old now, because I got the Happy Day reference. You're welcome, Mike. Uh-huh. Did you listen to me? I did. Tom Bosrail. Tom Bosrail, yes. The demon Tom Bosrail. Right. The comments about flying agents was when Scott was talking about the helicopter opening up to canisters and firing it at the house. Yeah, it's something unusual coming out of agents. One last comment in reference to episode 118 from Darius, who said, "You guys remember the time and shit luck when you made fun of Jay leaving his rifle in the church roof?" During this episode, I still saw these priests on the roof staring at the sniper rifle and saying, "This is bound to cause much harm and many deaths and flashback." So Darius was... And they were right. They came back to haunt a lot of people. Yes, they did. Facebook. There was some general post, one from Wesley Harps, who said, "So I started listening recently and I started with the Dresden stories and I'm listening to the entirety of it. I'm wondering if I need to go back and listen to the first world of darkness before I go on to the newer stories." So he's asking if he should go back to shit luck before he goes on to chagrin. My suggestion to Wesley on Facebook was, "No, you really don't have to go back to shit luck." And it's actually kind of painful to do so. Those first ones sound like shit. Well, what? You can if you want to. I think the story is the vibe, you know, the group kind of coming together. So it's much like, agree that maybe acoustically and the production wise, it's definitely weaker. The story itself is the story. The story is too, in which they said, we fully cover what happened in the previous story. So is it required for him to go back? No, of course not. I would say fully cover. I'd say we gave it an overview as we started this, right? Because I mean, obviously there's a lot of little small things in here. Well, here's the thing, Wesley. You're going to catch up, we come out once a week, you're going to run out of things and listen to them. Then feel free to go back to look at the beginning of shit luck. Yeah, most people that we have liked it, so. Yes. I had too many feedbacks, people who said, "I went back and listened to that," and boy was that. That's a waste of my giant quality being the quality being different, right? Usually as a compliment of the new quality, yes. Well, when you compare it to what we've, and you have done most of that, how much has, how much it has improved over to go back and listen to the early days is rough. Right. I have a couple of other feedbacks on Facebook and episode 117, Luke Greenside, I'm rather curious about the growling that's happening upstairs. I think it might be discovered that Danny is experimenting with finding ways to bring his daughter back. Good guess. Thanks, guys. We'll see. We'll see. Indeed. Richard Watts said that he loved the violin music during the flashback regarding the missing dock workers. What was that from? I have no clue. I really don't like that. I absolutely don't. I absolutely should probably just jot it down in like some production notes or something of what you. Well, it was a flashback, so I meant it was a smaller group, so I had a much larger selection of my music to choose from that fit into that time slot that the actual scene took place. But it is cool that our fans are quizzing us on the details, the production notes, and no clue. Well, there's an app for that. That's true. That's true. Just put whatever phone up to... Suzanne, we're doing it. I don't remember the name of it. The soundhound is the one I use where you play it up and it listens to the music and it'll tell you who did it. Of course. It's a lot of difficulty with the people talking. Yeah, a little bit. But not much. Tyler Reed also said on episode 117, "Hey, guys, I just started listening to y'all podcast, and I'm really enjoying the world of darkness storyline. Seeing the Dresden files, I expected to enjoy Dresden files. But after listening to the first 50 or so episodes, I'm so hooked into the Siren storyline, so I skipped the entire Dresden series just so I could continue with the world of darkness." Go back eventually. Eventually. Yeah. Well, he's a fan. Because he's a good story. But I can see you wanting to keep this story going. It makes sense. I never played D&D, and I'm half looking for a group to start playing, so wish me luck. Dude, the moment you sprayed your ear with ortho twice, you won me over. I think you and Scott could have had some fun with the B's second in command, but I'm glad you're in the hide for the final battle. I didn't have to do that. You forgot that. That was probably one of the most memorable scenes, I think, in that story. That's you. No one. Yeah. Yeah. He ends with, "Thanks for the great work you guys do," editing lines, and you make it all really easy to listen to your podcast. Tyler. That's gonna be a lot of work to do it. It would be neat to somehow do a best of moments with those old stories and say, in one podcast, that look, to catch up to speed and some of the highlights of the previous are... Big Momma Hobson. Yeah, Big Momma Hobson, any of the fights, any of the... Right. I have a hard time getting it out in time weekly, so that's your project. You feel free. You've got some software editing fields. Yeah, that's true. That's true. Okay. Okay. I have emails that were received at emails@kids.com, it's like, I got a page the other day, I mean, it's an old school. And you get a Twitter, or you get a fake... No, I'm kidding, guys. We really enjoy you. What are the tweets to it? Yeah, I actually do. Yeah. And in fact, the first one is from Terrence, and Terrence has been representing us on Twitter quite a bit. Awesome. I use Terrence to be there. He says, "Okay. My curiosity is peaked. I'm visually impaired, and I can sort of make out the letters on your logo, but I can't quite tell what's in the middle of the O. The T, at least from my perspective, sort of looks like a sword. Is that intentional?" Thanks to advanced for satisfying my curiosity, Terrence. Oh, sure. P.S. Alan Montgomery is awesome. Wow. He's the best. This is the M.O.I.K. Decentory episode. You're getting a lot of personal kind of... And you should know that, I'm working a good bounce in the bowl. A huge portion of my job is on Fadwoi compliance to making sure that median people have an easier time to... Yeah. Look at that. Accessing true. Which explains that you didn't design the logo. I did not design the logo. That would be me. That was my build-up. You kind of stepped on the... Anyway, but yeah. I'm sorry. I didn't know that. I could edit it out. Go ahead. You could edit it out. No, no, no. We won't laugh. I don't. Yeah. Whatever, Tom, or he said that, Mike. Sorry, Mike. I think if you go back and check, you'll see that I didn't design that logo. That would have been funnier. Scott designed the logo there is very faintly in the back, which I'm sure... Terence, I have a hard time seeing this. It's shy on a horse. The knight, as it were. Right. The circle is, well, knight. So it's a moon. It's half. It's half moon. Yeah. It's half moon. And then he is correct. The T is a sword because there were knights. So I tried to take the words from the group name and incorporate it into the logo. Okay. And lastly, we have one additional email from porcelain llama. The title of the email was chagrin and baron. And he goes on to say, "It's named Knights of the Knight. This is a trilobite. I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed chagrin. I would love to see you experiment with faster pacing and a higher level of player decisiveness. But I'm really just... Welcome to my hell. My hell. But you know what's really funny about that? It's been edited. So it is quicker. It is quicker. If you think you've no indecision. But I'm really digging the stories you all create. You have lively characters who know how to role play an essential mystery. Which to me is what does the former hunter here know and how is he involved. You have me hooked. Cool. Awesome. I especially like the use of flashbacks. Both in the way that they are inserted in the game with appropriate cinematic triggers. And the way that you are using them to extend essential mystery and fill in the background to the story. It's dynamic. Something that I've always failed to achieve when using flashbacks in my game. Sir Scott, consider this technique joint. Yes. You like a way. And I hope it works well for him in the future. Oh, go ahead. Snatch. The players are great with these two. Smoothly transitioning from now to then. Throwing themselves into the role of their past selves. And then letting the flashback inform their actions. You all have a great team. And I can see why you've came together so long. Thanks for your continuing to do excellent work. And being an example to other actual play podcasts. Dulcet et decorum est pro Leatherman morai. I have no idea how bad I slaughtered that or what do you mean. Where's Google Trans? Where's the fucking Google Trans? Hey Greg, you should know some some Latin for yours. Dulcet et decorum est pro Leatherman morai. I haven't really received feedback from trial by before. Yes we have. Yeah. Because we had an argument over. Oh, it seems like it might be a reference to a Wilford Owen poem. Oh, Dulcet et decorum est. He knew that. Actually I'm worried. See Greg read it much better than I did. He's consulting his encyclopedic knowledge of his phone. Does Dr. Lucius have encyclopedic knowledge or idetic memory? And just to formalize the ending here, the trilobite ends with your humble servant, the trilobites stage manager and proprietor of the porcelain llama theater, which is a actual play podcast as well. Oh, that's right. It is sweet and right to Dr. your country is the Dulcet et decorum est. So it is sweet and right to kill with a Leatherman? Or to use one maybe. See? I make memes. I'm a meme maker. You are a meme maker. I'm a meme maker. I'm a meme maker. You're right to die for your country. You're a meme maker. I think it's sweet and right to die with a Leatherman. No. All right. See? All right. Yes. We have an Amazon link. Use it. Doesn't cost you anything extra. It gives us some money for the podcast. We appreciate it. The vote on the KMT and podcast.com site. We have Edgard on the bottom with five. You have four more. That's one more. It's some movement. We have more than your characters doing it. We're all over. We have Daniel with nine. Chew Park with 10. Sister Katie with 10. Michael Clay with 11. Hey! Jayce with 14. Hey Jayce. Jayce still on the lead. So thank you all for voting for your favorite character. Thank you for downloading the podcast. And now we're going to go on to the episode. Please enjoy. This is chapter 12 of the World of Darkness story chagrin. I'm your storyteller Scott. And with me tonight on my right is. I am Jim. Playing in Sister Katie O'Connor part of the Shadow Congregation. Bob playing FBI Special Agent Chew Park. Member of the VASU conspiracy. Tom playing Jay Alton. Member of the Ascending Ones. Mike playing Michael Clay. Member of the Ages Kydoru. Thomas playing Edgard Montez. If we're doing Practitioner and the Member of the lay moustache. Spirits. John playing Daniel Morgan. Mountain Man Turn Mercenary. Next Member of Task Force Valkyrie. Also with us tonight are two guests here for the evening. A longtime player Doug, who we hope will be rejoining us soon. And a player from the past who is visiting our area. John. So welcome both of you tonight. And thanks for hanging out with us and taking in the story. A brief recap of last week would be Daniel Morgan. He had made it to the house. Had found some disturbing photographic evidence of a 14 year old girl plastered throughout the entire lower half of the home. You had made it past one of the guards who shot one of the Task Force Valkyrie agents that was going out the stairs that you shot. You moved past him after disarming him. Moved up the stairway. I believe you put your foot through one of the steps because you are after all gigantic. And you, I think we cut the evening with you removing yourself from your constrictive situation and starting back up the stairs again. Is that correct? It was a growling thing up the stairs. Yes. In the room the door is somewhat, it's a jar but it's not all the way open. And you were able to hear some low water roll growling coming from the room. Which seemed to stop at a point when Jay's sniper rifle took out what he believed to be another Task Force agent in the upstairs of the stone colonial. Is there a fire too? Yes. That is starting to rage in the lower level and then at the conclusion of last week's chapter the stealth helicopter fired two canisters of subtype of military grade accelerants and the entire front facade of the stone colonial has gone up in flames. Then I have two brats running away from me. No, you weren't here last episode. They made you stop talking to the children and because you were scaring them. I didn't know if you played last time or not. You can't have any pudding if you don't eat your mates. You know, you totally flipped out. You were just, it was no good. So the kids did run away from you but you were able to catch up with them. Actually, I think Michael played calm them down right by the, you were just south of the hillock. Right. And the kids had calmed down and you were for a moment surrounded by feeder demons which I believe you told the kids to start singing. I was trying to give him a singer Carol or something. Christmas song actually they started singing and the team even started to fade and flicker in and out of existence. So you're in that area right there. Chew, you were, you made your way towards Mortonville but then had a change of heart. Went back to the fence area just south of the trailer. I think you had fired upon the zombie. I'm in a gunfight with the zombie. Yes. In pretty good shape because zombies aren't very good at gunfights. And Thomas Edgard was almost at the house I believe you made it very close. And Jay you'd made it relatively close as well but you had decided to go prone and snipe someone you saw at a window in the stone colonial. And I think that covers, he's not here. Pretty much. What's wrong with that? What's my answer? No, that really happened. Another mess. Not a ton. It wasn't my turn. Yeah, it's always your turn. I should just go first. I believe. No, you don't go first. We're going to start this session off with Flashback. Because Michael Clay had wanted to do some investigation of the two individuals who had died once you got the names last week. Victor Schultz and Ted Dostefano. There you go. And I want to allow you guys to do a little bit of investigating. You'd also found out that the last big hurrah for Danny Rockland's Hunter Cell was a. First Commission. A mission to the Cleveland Police Museum. Which seemed really, really odd. That was some information everyone was kind of chomping at a little bit. And I want to give you guys a chance to do some investigation on that level if you'd like to. So we'll start with Flashback. No initiative. Just whoever wants to do something. Let me know. Well, I would have been co-lating information on anything that can find on Victor Schultz and Ted Dostefano. First off, which one of them's family lives in the greater Cleveland area? Dostefano was the one that still lives in the Cleveland area. Schultz is the one who had moved to Texas. All right, so we can maybe look up anything on the local Dostefano's phone books, phone records, or not a phone record. Or not a phone record. Well, what type of access do I have? Do I need to roll to determine? You have some good abilities with your computer. You have some government-issued software, I believe. Access to an FBI database as well. So you have a very wide range of options available to you to do your investigating. Am I still recovering from Binary Hetz's hash and money equipment? No, he only put a password on it to stock you from getting back into it. He didn't actually damage your system. All he claims. Well, the password. New. No, it will be said that you did give a bit of a challenge in that. I don't want it to seem like you just got destroyed by Binary Hetz. He is a world-class hacker, and you gave him a good fight for his money. Now, can you ridicule him afterwards? But overall, you did do a very good job. Which plus computer? Can I assist him? I'll go one or two ways with you, Jim. You can assist him and take whatever successes you have in Mike and Adam to his dice pool, or you can give him an equipment bonus of the FBI database which will automatically give him a plus-two. Which would you prefer? Feeling lucky? I'm just going to give him a plus-two. Okay. That works. The password? The password to the FBI database is to... And it is so natural. Just. Does my hacking specialty of computer apply in this situation? I'm going to assume that you're doing everything possible to track down the Stephanos in the Greater Cleveland area. So, I'm going to say that there's going to be some legal stuff and some, definitely some cutting-edge stuff going on as well. So, yes, it will apply. All right. What was the time period that we were talking about? 2002, right? That was the last post on the BBS, right? Yes, 2002 was the last post on the BBS. I want to say it was 98, potentially, that the drowning occurred. It was his very first attempt at taking on a supernatural creature. So, I believe it was 325. So, March 25th, not February, which I mistakenly or erroneously said before, 325 is when the drowning took place. And that was, I'm going to say 98, if we go back in the annals and find out that I'm wrong, then we'll say that I'm wrong. But I just want to expedite things right now and say that it's 98. Okay. The last post in 2002 referenced the Cleveland Police Museum? Yes. That is correct. All right. That he was in business for just over four years as far as, I think it was the Doc Workers Association. They called their group of people who... How did the Union do this? The Union was the overall dacha, sorry. Yeah, like in the game, in the book, it's called the Union, but their version of the Union was the Doc Workers Association. It was a separate sect over a second. Yeah, like because the Union is really disparate. You know, it's just groups of people protecting their neighborhood, protecting their neck of the woods. And so, that's what they were doing. I have a total dice pool of nine with all the equipment and skill bonuses. Okay, you use a plus two from his equipment. You use a plus from your either high-tech government equipment. Okay, another plus two for that. Can I have another 10 seconds please? Yeah. And then because of the age of the material that you're looking at, and then a lot of that stuff wasn't available online in 98, I'm going to subtract two dice from your pool. Fair enough. Okay. All right. Now, like normally this would be a width plus investigation, but because computer is a more logical skill to use, we're going to use width plus computer. Okay. I have a total of nine dice. And I have four successes, three of which are 10 again. Make this a little bit of time for the roll. The dice again. Hoping for one. Crazy. And that's it. Four. So close to exceptional success. I'm not going to perform this right now. I'm not going to perform this right now. I'm not going to perform this right now. I'm not going to perform this right now. So that's it. Four. So close to exceptional success. I'm not going to perform this right now. I'm not going to perform this right now. I'm not going to perform this right now. I'm not going to perform this right now. I'm not going to perform this right now. I'm not going to perform this right now. I'm not going to perform this right now. I'm not going to perform this right now.

I'm not going to perform this right now. I'm not going to perform this right now. Unless you have another way to get information on her. Oh, you have an online presence? Two tables list. Okay. So, what kind of information were you looking to get from her? Just anything that occurred on that night, anything unusual? You remember that time your husband died, like, I don't know, ten years ago? He was a member of a hunter group. If we could get a way to contact them out of her, that would be amazing. That would be exactly what we want. Hunter groups, just wait. Yeah, but just the former members. We could get into the house and maybe go through his old stuff if she wouldn't even allow us to do that. Maybe. That might be a good problem. Well, she might be unhappy with Andy Rockland anyway. Cold case. Yeah, that's a good way to approach it. Right. But also, she might blame Danny Rockland for her husband's death. So, she might be very willing to throw him under the bus and give us... As long as we make it sound like that's what we're doing. Well, we'll have to feel that out and see how she feels about that. You have any social skills? Oh, yeah. It's good with the ladies. Pretty good with the possessed jakes. I hope she says so. The bitter widows. All right. So, you now have an address for Kelly to step it up. Anyone else want to do anything in this particular flashback? We definitely want to contact Kelly and see what information she might have about her husband's death. I think we also wanted to follow up on some information regarding the Cleveland Police Museum, right? Right. You have any information? It's an actual website that exists. I don't see anything there that's relevant. They have something about ports and harbors, but Kelly refers back to 1963, which is outside of our range in 1981, which is the same. I'm wondering why Danny Rockland, which means that to be his last stand. Or... Last mission. Do we know that yet? I'm sorry. For her, after the mission succeeded, he posted a message saying, "We got her back. We're totally done. We're out." Right. After they went there. Our current theory is that they got the daughter back. She had been kidnapped for something, and random ransom told him that she was fine or rather could be retrieved here. That's what they're going to do. Huh? She's been turned. Yeah. That's what we're working on. Someone needs a rereading of what you learned from Binary Hex last week. I can certainly reread it, but so far you guys have been... You've got it to have some appointments. Yeah. That's what he said basically. I guess my concern is I'd like to know who... Does it say anywhere who runs or operates the Cleveland Police Museum? Is it a part of the police department? Are they all vampires? Are they like the... Oh, yeah. It's on the website. Yeah. Well, I'm not deaf, but I'm in the committee on the events for that bad guy. People. We hate humans. (laughter) Hey, the earth. Listen to us, cattle. (laughter) She won't. Cleveland Police Museum. Blood Drive. That could mean something. Oh. What was that? I'm lying. (laughter) But I guess what I meant to say is that it's not a part of the... The police don't run their own museum. It's probably a volunteer organization. Or a private organization. Actually, it is run by. Because there are volunteers who staff the... That's why I'm asking questions, right? But I was there making all the wrong assumptions. Right. No, it's actually located within the Justice Center in downtown Cleveland. But that's a little bit more disturbing that he chooses a place for a last stand to retrieve somebody who he feels was kidnapped. And it's the system itself made. The system itself is corrupt. This is back in the '70s? No. Late '90s. Oh yeah, he started late '90s. The hit was in 2002 with the police museum. Sorry. I thought I was going to get to like some '70s slang there for a second. There's board members in trustees. What was it at the police museum? So that's what everyone's wondering right now. Oh, there was just a rivalry there that probably not. Well, there was a mission to go there. John, what happened to this daughter? What's the whole next story on that? Well, you got really depressed for a period because she had vanished. And then people were dying left and right in his group. And he's like, we'll do one last Toronto after he got a message from Ransom. But we don't know where that message was. But presumably it was about his daughter because after the mission was a success. And I came back where he said we got her. A quick encapsulation. All right. I've reached the end of the info train. Don't know what to make of this. But Danny's grand finale was at the Cleveland Police Museum. And it seems like it was a success. Although nothing. I mean nothing was reported to any of the media of the day. Just a final post from an apparently stoked Danny. We did it. We found her. And everything he told me is true. I've got her back again. And I'm never going to lose her. Time for a long deserved retirement away from all this darkness. Time to flip things right with my girl. They'll try to find me. All of them will. But I'm never going to let them hurt her or us again. The dock workers are officially done. Don't try to look for us. We won't be happy to see you. We won't play nice. Because the truth is you can't win. You can't beat them. The best you can do is survive. And that's what I plan on doing far away from these bloody streets. You should do the same. And then binary. I'm going dark. Good luck. Don't take it afterwards. I'll be in touch if you survive. There's some great names on this border trust useless. Let me tell you. Dracula and this. See you tonight. That's fair too. That's sort of Rocco Palutro. Break the Torres. Jimmy Buriola. Don't eat cologne. Alright what's good. When you guys are doing research I wouldn't mind doing like we're true. I don't know if we need to scare an old lady but that's what I'm good at. We don't need to. This is not Roberto. He's not going to fuck her eye out. I don't know what you're talking about. No one made that assumption. If I'm going to punch out a few senior citizens I'll do this. I can say that maybe we don't want to generate some coral or not even old. She's a really good lady. I have no reason. I have no researching skills. I'll wait to see that you hear the description before. I have no researching skills. I can't be of help here. I just want to do something. Are you working alright? You're next to hanging out with the clubhouse. You like to be out in the mountains. Climbing the trees. If there's too many walls here. Gotcha. Jay, you've got some people chomping the pit. What are you going to say? Transform rule out. This is a fucking flashback. It's already happened. I thought this was what we did. I'm sorry. Tell us what we did. You succeeded. Because apparently we didn't heed any warnings because we're right in the thick of a big fucking way. But we'll know you like there are. And prepare. Because you hurt. Next 12 hours my name is trying to send us a message. They have fucking helicopters. Two dogs. Six soldiers. Everyone's a sniper. Even the zombies. The zombies. The zombies everywhere. What are you guys doing? And he was ignoring. Well I guess we could try to maybe get a little information from Kelly. But I like the approach of choose the carrot and then Daniel can be the stick. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Good to go. Cap. Cap. I'm going to send a message to Future Q. [laughter] You guys are going to have to be treated in this flashback. Tell us what you have to do. This one you're about to die. Bring a lot more armored guns. [laughter] All right. So chew and Daniel depart from the safe house midday. Again it's the middle of summer. It is ridiculously sweltering outside. Cleveland heat wave it hasn't been seen in literally over a century. It's probably in the high 90s. Terrible humidity. I mean drive. It's actually pretty close because the near west side isn't very far from your Ohio city safe house. [laughter] What? Well I actually go. I'm not sure the skill pool involved but I'll be glad if I can add something to it. He's got subterfuge and I don't know. Can you lie? Like a rug. [laughter] And he entered a big mile of hops. [laughter] And that was cool. Literally. I've got something to do. I guess I could go to. There's a persuasion. Well that's our answer. We can't. We can do that. So. Well you're right good call. You have persuasion? Persuasion have empathy. Okay. I guess. Socialize, streetwise and subterfuge. Okay. What are you guys dressing up? Like how are you dressing for this occasion? I think I'm an agent's usually where. Yeah. I'm going to wear a. You know. A hot suit with a nice tie right around that. Yeah. What's to be thickening neck? Yeah. Okay. Let's see what happens here. You got the black suit, thin tie. Yes ma'am. FBI. Got it. Right. Edgar. I guess I'll follow the dress code if we're all going to pretend to be. Yeah. I mean if we came with two guys in overalls. Okay. I'm taxi. Everyone. I'm the local club. The main black with the black glasses. Yeah. Do you have sunglasses? Because you don't know. I used to live down south. So yeah. But Haitians know about heat. Yeah. They do. He's actually you know what? He's playing a nice linen suit. You know it's all good. You're not even breaking sweat. All right. So you guys work your way through the back streets of the near west side. And you pull up to what can be charitable. We described as a ramshackle. One level ranch that is in a complete state of disrepair. There's shit in the front yard. That's not the state of America. Where are the dog signs? This little gated area. Which? What's it is it's sound like? This is. This is Cleveland. This is Cleveland. We should. Yeah. West 25th like between Fulton and Puritas. That kind of area by Metro to give you a visualization. So you're looking at pretty much old rundown houses. Very poor subset of the population. Again there's a big beware of the dog sign on a gate that is not locked. The house to you from the short distance by 20 feet to the actual porch itself. There is a porch out front with the ease. They're kind of falling in on it. The windows have cracks in the glass panes. Not holes, but just cracks along the glass panes. There is an air conditioner in one of the windows as well. So one of the windows is actually open a bit and has their condition unit that is running currently. It's just a blinding depressibly hot day. So you can't really see if there's any lights out in the house or what the kind of activity is. Because the shades are drawn and the house itself seems to be somewhat not viewable. Or you just can't believe a good estimation of what's happening inside the house from the outside due to the closed doors, the shaded windows. Is there a car in the driveway? Does it look like someone's home? There is a driveway and there is a garage that is actually leaning somewhat sideways behind the house. And slightly to the right of the house. And the garage door is closed. Throughout the yard there's weeds. The grass is overgrown. The sidewalk is cracked. And that's your initial impression of telling the staff of those homes. Good cop, bad cop. All right. Dang it. Thump, thump. I knock on the door. I don't know what you're doing here. I'm breaking the bag. Oh, I do that good. Opening the latch defense and moving into the yard that says be aware of dog. Is there a front door? Yeah, I can go with dogs. Oh, there's a front door. You guys will have known this, but I'm going to talk soon. Right? We'll go to the front door. Okay, so you flip up the latch. Who's leaving? Me, I'm afraid of dogs. Me, I'm afraid of dogs. Not afraid of dogs. All right. That's what I would make. That's what the comment would mean. No sense. What am I doing? Okay, so Daniel, the hulking seven foot mountain man, leads the way up the path. Jew, are you behind him? I would be following him, yes. All right. You said guard one, but I would have hit one. Yeah, he's in a nail footing suit. Yes. Oh, you are. Absolutely. I mean, flood city going on with the end of the city. Edgard, you're bringing up the rear of the procession. And who's doing the talking when you get to the door? I will. All right. So I would assume Daniel and you would step off of the side, kind of leaning forward a bit, trying to be imposing over the doorway. Are you holding back from that type of persona as the door is not being knocked down by Jew? I'm going to hold back. I was in front of to make sure the dog wasn't up in someone's throat. I don't know where he is. Yes, no dog. Seemed to a bridge. Okay. That's a lie. You know that's put up front. Jew. Edgard, where are you standing? I'm slightly off to the side. Hands behind my back and I'm locked. Like I'm on a fish. Okay. We've got Jew right in the middle of the door. We've got Daniel off to the left as you're facing the house. Are you off to the right? So you're each flanking Jew on either side. Yeah. I want you to get to the bullet coming out of the house. You're not going to have a lot underneath this thing of course. Because that's not even more happening to the door. You knock on the door and you hear the sound of a large dog, the footfall, you know, the nails on the linoleum, and then padded and then boom against the door. And you see the curtain is a long narrow rectangular window vertical and you could see basically the face of what looks to be some type of shepherd or doverman just drooling all over the window and ripping at the curtain with its paws and basically making quite a racket. You're up, Daniel. Have you scooby slants? You hear a light footfall off that and then a woman's voice yelling at the dog and then you can see her actually, her arm pulling the dog away from the door. You hear a deadbolt unlock more screaming at the dog. The door opens but it catches a chain so it's only open maybe six inches at the most. And you see what looks to be a middle-aged woman kind of peer around the corner and say, "May I help you?" Does she look like Kelly's to staff now? I'm sure we were able to take up a picture of her. I actually weren't able to take up a picture with an exceptional success. She's on the Facebook. I've been fine. I failed. You only have four out of five successes. It's all playful. It's all playful. Well, define success either maybe. Why don't you ask her? Not exceptional. So basically you see a woman, she's got reddish hair. She looks to be in her mid to late 40s and says, "Can I help you?" Good afternoon. Can we speak with Kelly to staff now, please? I'm Kelly. Can I ask who you are? Yeah, Kelly. My name is Chu Park. I'm from the FBI. And we just want to ask you a couple of questions regarding your husband. If you have a couple of minutes. My husband, my husband's deceased. Right. We kind of want to talk about what might have happened that day. Okay. Go ahead and I'd like you to make a manipulation. Plus, you can choose. You sound like you're being relatively, I'm going to go socialize to start with. Manipulation plus socialize. You're being congenial, but you're trying to get your way in the house, right? I'm just trying to talk to you. Okay. What did you guys pull? It's four. All right. So if she's on guard, I'm going to say minus one does. Did you wait one second? Did you show her your badge or not? I did not. She didn't ask for it. I didn't present it. Okay. Minus one does. How was it done? You got the badge. Why not? Well, you got the goods. It'll come out. All right. You want to bust it out in the first two minutes, right? Take your time. You got to eat it anyway. Don't stand pee towards the badge. You got to slam the door shut. Yeah. Take it easy on him. All right. Really don't understand the patient. I got a zero. All right. Ten again. All right. She says. All right. Sure. The house is a little bit messy yet, but you can come in. It's pretty hot out there. One second. Okay. And so she, man, closes the door. You do not hear it lock again. You hear her speak to the dog, but it's muffled. And the dog. You hear kind of like a scampering of nails on linoleum. And then you hear a door closing. And then 15 minutes. No. And she comes back to the door. She unlatches the chain and invites you in. And you see what looks to be the house itself inside is old and dated, but it's clean. And she seems to take relatively good care of the inside of her home. She invites you into the kitchen, turns on some whites. The house smells of, you know, wet dog and Febreze. She asks you if you can get something to drink from you or your fellow agents. We're good, man. Thank you. All right. She sits down at the table. You are really hot. But the house is a little cooler than it is outside, although not by much. Her air conditioner is not nearly big enough to really help the house with this heatwave. So she sits down at the table. She pours herself a couple of iced tea, sits down and says, "What can I possibly help you with?" My husband passed away nine years ago. I don't know what the FBI could possibly want to know about him. He was just a doc worker and died in a freak accident. Yeah. We're just kind of going back and touching on some of the cold cases. And sort of the mystery of his death that we're interested in. And if there's anything that you can tell us that you recall about his death, I thank you. It was a big help to us. Okay. Give me a -- again, manipulation. But you can be empathy at this point because I think you've gotten past the socializes kind of people you don't know all that well, and now you've kind of worked your way into a trust zone. So I'm going to go with empathy at this point. Empathy and manipulation? Yes. You're still trying to get information out of her. You're not using your presence. Or your composure. All right. I got six dice. I'm rolling. Okay. Just minus one. She's more for her confusion in the tying going back, trying to find out through the fog of time, basically. So I'm rolling five dice here. Okay. It's three successes. All right. She tells you that her husband was a doc worker. His behavior had changed the last couple of years, their marriage. She told the police when they came to investigate, but she didn't -- they put it in the report. That she felt like maybe he was having an affair because he was spending a lot of nights out of the house. And that wasn't usual for him. They, unfortunately, they weren't able to have children. So it was just the two of them. But he was almost always home after his shift. But there came a time when he wasn't coming home until really the sun hit. I mean, he was gone all night. His shift ended. But mid-19 was usually home around one. And she just figured he was having an affair. And they had a lot of fights. And it was a rough couple of years. But then, towards the end, she wasn't quite sure because there were times when she saw some bruising at his body. And his job was a tough job. But she didn't remember ever him being that bruised and beat up as he was the last couple of years when they were fighting in their marriage. But as far as his death goes, you know, I mean, it seemed like it was a drinking accident. There was alcohol in his system. And then they found him, you know, in the Cuyahoga down the flats. And he could have been, I just figured he was out drinking maybe either with his buddies or with somebody that I thought he might have been having an affair with. I never found anything. You know, there was never any evidence of it. But it just seemed weird that he would be out all night. What else could it have been? Right. Did you know many of his friends that he consorted with? Yeah. We would get together. You know, I mean, there were union picnics. And you know when she says the word union. She's not talking about union picnics. She's talking about dock workers. Real dock workers union. I got together with a lot of them. I mean, he had some close friends and I know some of them. I mean, I don't deal with anyone anymore. But I certainly when he was alive, I was friends with some of his co-workers. Did you know Danny at all? But Danny, Danny, Danny, Danny. That name sounds familiar. Yeah, I think I knew. I'm pretty sure I knew a Danny. And he was friends with him? Yeah, definitely. Yeah. Again, it's kind of foggy. It's been almost a decade. But I just remember being in a couple of picnics and there was a Danny. He seemed almost like a leader. Like type. You know, like he was kind of like everyone kind of gravitated to him. I just knew that they were friends. But yeah, that sounds right. They were friends. But occasionally, I think we had a couple saw him at the different functions and picnics and stuff. Sure. But I really don't see what any of this has to do with his death. It was a drowning. I mean, is there something that I should know? No. I mean, we're just trying to get information about anything related to his death. Because it does seem kind of out of place just the way that Danny met his end. Well, yeah, it was an accident. I guess I could see that. It just seems that to me that three federal workers would be sent to investigate a swimming death that's been closed now for almost ten years. I don't mind talking about it. You're right. I said goodbye. But yeah, it just seems a little bit weird. There are some other factors in this case that we are trying to investigate. Mostly people that Danny might have associated with. So any information that any of his friends could have been responsible for his death? I can't say, I'm not going to talk. I wish I were. But it's perfectly okay to tap him on the shoulder and say a moment, please. I mean, you could talk to him if you want, but you just roll play. Mm-hmm. You don't? No. Go ahead. So if there's any of his, any people he would have associated with. Well, I mean, there's Danny. Now that you say his name, I remember him. He was like, I remember Teddy being impressed with him. Mm-hmm. He really seemed to think that Danny was somebody who had it together. And his wife was really nice. He had a really nice wife. And they had a really cute daughter. But it's coming back to me. I think she actually died. The daughter. So yeah, there was Danny. There was obviously Teddy who hung out with them and Vic. Vic was a good friend. Those three were like, they just always hung out together. There was probably a couple others that hung kind of like, were not quite as part of the group. But I think it was really those three who like, they were in bowling leagues and dark leagues. And they would go to Brownlee's games together. And they were just, they were pretty close friends. God, I haven't heard that name in a long time, Danny. Was Vic the other guy who died? Vic Schultz. That doesn't help, won't you? I forgot a name of a living member. Just saying. Right in front of him. No. Sorry. That's right. Sorry. Not to. Did you know Vic's wife at all? He had a wife, but I wasn't close with her. She was kind of a loop and I just, I didn't really get along with her. So no, I don't know anything about her. Do you recall anything that Ted might have said to you? The few days leading up to his death at all? Anything out of, anything out of ordinary? Honestly, no. I mean, we were fighting all the time, Agent Park. There wasn't a lot of communication going on at that time. So no, not really. I mean, the only one that was even slightly close to was Jenny. And that was Danny's wife. We were kind of, we were close because the boys were always together. You know, the guys were always hanging out. So we got thrown together a couple times at different functions and stuff. So she was nice. I liked her. I really liked their daughter. I don't remember their daughter's name. I remember that she passed away. But it was right around the time that I was dealing with Teddy's death. So I wasn't really in the place to help Jenny out at all. Sure. That's understandable. I don't remember anything about the wife. Do we hear you? This is the first you ever heard about a wife. Which is why you haven't heard anything about it. Right. I had no idea that Danny Rockland's wife was deceased. Oh, she's that. This is daughter. That's why I was talking about her. His daughter died right around the time that Teddy died. Oh, yes. We know that. So I took this. I don't know. Jenny is still alive. The best in my knowledge. I think she's still in the Cleveland area. I don't know. I haven't talked to her since then. But I haven't. Well, actually I did. I talked to her a couple of times. Maybe the last time about seven years ago. She didn't sound like she was... The best in my knowledge. She's still alive. We just... The friendship faded because the boys weren't around and kind of pulled us together. We didn't really know each other that well. So you've been out touched for a while? No. No. Long time. Were they still married at the time? They were. But I always thought it was really odd because when Danny and her separated or got divorced or whatever it was that happened. She's always been kind of vague about it. She took her maiden name. She stopped using his name. I mean, immediately. I remember that thing. Add about it. I mean, she lost her daughter and her husband leaves her. I guess because it's probably dealing with the loss of the daughter and sometimes marriages can't get over that. That's sure that could be really tough. Do you recall what her maiden name is? Oh, god. Oh, her maiden name. Daniel. Tear her arms off. We just did it very well. I'll never remember. You remember that when they're on her? Holy shit. She had one diet to roll and she was successful. It was like Johnson but it wasn't Johnson. It was Johansson Johnson. Johnston. Johnston. It was Jenny Johnston. And does she still live in the area? Again, I haven't seen her in seven years. Well, seven years ago. She was. Yeah. As on the last time I talked to her, I just ran into her at the local supermarket. So it was just a chance of acquaintance and to the best of my knowledge, she was still in the house they were living in and still in the area. Thank you very much. This information is quite valuable to us. Thank you. Oh, sure. I'm glad I could help. Can I have a word with you? Oh, sure. I don't want to ask you to excuse us for a minute. Of course. Of course. Some business to attend. Are you sure, sir, you wouldn't like something to drink? No, I'm fine. Okay. It's done. All right. Do you live in Cleveland or do you travel from Washington, D.C.? Oh. No, she's not going to Edgar. Oh. Making small talk while the other two agents are. Right. We come from France. [laughter] I traveled from Washington, D.C. recently, transferring to just from the urban area. All right. That's the episode and agent data. It's also from Cleveland. Oh. So you work out at the time of a building downtown? Yes. Okay. Okay. Are you lying to me? Yes. They had that BBS or whatever. If he has a computer in the house. It could be a view if we could compensate it. I did kind of want to go through some of his old stuff if she's alright with that. So it seems like she doesn't use the PC then. All right. Okay. Yeah. That's good idea. So you two come back into the room, sit yourselves down at the table, and... I'm wondering if Ted had any artifacts left behind in any personal belongings. Especially any computer equipment. It seemed like he posted frequently on a message board. Oh, did you know anything about that? Yeah. I do as a homies on that damn computer. God, we really pissed me off. Again, I always figured he was just talking to his girlfriend or whatever. Always posted on those damn sites. To be honest, I got rid of that computer probably a couple months after he passed away. It was an old bit of machine, and we really didn't need it anymore. The only thing I really kept from him was his union certificate when he passed exams and became a doc worker. I framed that and kept it on the wall and the living room. You're welcome to look at it, but I don't have any other of his effects in the house. It was tough getting over the loss of him, and it's really the only thing I can look at at that time that I really look at and not feel either a lot of anger about because of the fact that I was having a affair. Or just hurt me because of the stuff that we shared together and I just wanted to get rid of it because it reminded me of him too much. So, all I really have is his spring certificate. Do I get the impression that she's lying at all? Go ahead. She's being straightforward. Let's say WITs plus up the future roll. I mean, do I should have, please? You can detect us too. Yeah. Yeah, feel free. Anybody can. If you have WITs and you have subterfuge, you can make a roll. No, no, no. She's not as tall. That was empathy. That would be wrong. The specialty of detect lies. In your empathy? Yeah. In empathy. But, I mean, if you want to go with the subterfuge... Go ahead. Go ahead. Use what you have. I'd figure that subterfuge will you give me a minus. No, I'm not going to give you any minuses. I would plus subterfuge. Let me know how many dice you each have. Six. Six. Because you don't know her very well, I'm going to give a minus two dice to your pool. How many you have two? I have seven. You have nine? Oh. Two is one social, some of it. Yeah. So, minus two dice to both of you. Good luck. Oh, that is nine. Two successes. Okay. Two successes. One, ten. Yes. You both kind of make eye contact with each other and slight nod. She's telling the truth. Okay. I actually work as a nursing assistant at Metro and my shit starts in a little while. If there's nothing else, do you think we can wrap this up because I really do have to get the work? Oh, I don't think I have any more questions. The gentlemen will have no questions. Well, let's take a look at that certificate. Okay. Sure. I'll act as you can see on the layout because we're going to go through the living room on our way out. It's right about the TV set. Thank you very much for your time, man. Oh, you're very welcome. Good luck. And if you find anything out, I would, I'd like to know. I thought, kind of, put it away. I'm sure. Something do happen. Some of those memories. No, that's okay. I mean, you're just doing your job. And if there was something shady or something that was unlawful about his passing, I certainly would like to know about it. Absolutely. We will let you know anything that we would uncover related to his death. All right. And so she leads you out to the front door, but stops in front of her TV set, which is an older model and shows you the certificate. And he graduated from the Dachlooper's Academy in 1990. So he was a Dach worker for about eight years before he started his late night predilections. Okay. I don't think that helps us. But I just want to see what it was. I'm going to take a picture of it. Okay. Sure enough. All right. So the rest of you gentlemen and lady, you return about two hours later unless you're going somewhere else. Is there anything unusual about the frame or is it kind of normal? Does it look as the certificate is or does it look like kind of new within the last? No. That's a great thing. Your estimation is that the frame looks old and scratched and like it's seen about 21 years worth of wear. It definitely is not a new frame. It looks like the frame that it was originally. The paper's yellowing. There was a mat around the picture and it's yellowed in some places you can see from sunlight and just age. So yeah. Okay. Which one? Are they back at the apartment? Yes. About two o'clock in the afternoon they return to the safe house. Go ahead. In the time that they worked on, I pour over the Cleveland Museum site, which I have to do here. Sure. I got nothing. Okay. So the light that I'm seeing just gives us stuff from the 30s when L.A.S. was there and from the lugging eras and from the buffios in the 70s. I don't know if I'm missing something. Or if you think we got a new character role to see if he spots anything. Sure. Based on what you and Daniel and a jar report back. Yes. When I hear that the yard was kind of in disrepair but the inside was better. And if he was kind of like a blue collar, dog person, it makes me wonder if he had like the garage or the shed or maybe he had made his tools of the trade or his activities at night. So I'm wondering if it might... She doesn't work. So we could go back. That's an interesting way to look at it. Sure. That's true. Okay. Very quick. That's excellent. Jay, really quick, go ahead and make a Witz plus investigation role. You can use, let's say, you could use computer if you prefer instead of investigation. Can I help him in that or am I busy doing my own thing? I don't see why you couldn't help him with that. Or would you like to give me criteria and then I'll be the one to do it. You give me the criteria and I'll try to do my best to interpret it. Or you both want to decipher. I'm just looking at the site and seeing if anything comes out. Anything from that time period and he names the match up. And I'm not seeing it myself, but my character might. In that case, I'll just help him. I'll help him to facilitate his search. Go ahead and make a Witz plus computer role. Michael, how many dice is that? For me, that's six, seven if you let me have hacking. But I don't know if... No hacking this time. And you're trying if you want to die because Jay's got my name's own. Sometimes, it's what you say. Sometimes. I know, right? I have two successes, one ten again. Okay, well ten again, please. One ten again, so three successes. Roll ten again, please. Ten again, four successes. Roll ten again, please. Right, usually fair. Ten again, five successes. Holy shit. This is fucking unbelievable. And a nine. A total of six successes. Oh, right. I thought a password. I guess. How many ten again did you get? Four in a row. You got six successes on six dice. On five dice. On five dice. On five dice. That's unbelievable. I only have four. So that... You have nine. A total of ten. Six and four is ten. Oh, yes it is. Actually, I thought I was taking five in my head. Sorry. And I'm not going to reduce any dice from you because it was just fucking unbelievable. Zero. Zero. I got three. Yeah, we're in a flashback right now. Three. Wait until we get back to where we were. Three successes. And okay, I'm giving you nine again for this roll. Yeah, it's still three. Okay. I actually want to give it again. No. I do have a limit to my large dress. No, three successes. Okay. I'm wondering why I was doing this. Four dice. He's gonna fuck it. Yes. Because what? He's gonna do it. You feel as if you're not missing anything. But some idea that comes to you is that it's not the same as being there. The information they have on that website is incredibly limited. Yeah, it is. And so the idea comes to you is, you know what? This might not be everything that's there. Or there might be more information there than I know. So you kind of start performing an idea in your head that you might have had this idea anyways. But your successes don't get you any information because there's nothing there more to grab. But you certainly think that this isn't the end of it. There's something here. It's worth a visit. Yeah, it's worth a visit. And Mike, while you were helping him, once he started looking at the page and you got bored, you had to surf this like yourself and with your six successes, you actually found a back door into the Justice Center's website. So that is now an ability for you to be able to tap in the future. I'm not saying it gets you anything right now. There's any more information there. But you found a way surreptitiously without detection, you've broken into the Justice Center's database. That's always a safe thing to do. To the best of your knowledge, you've not been monitored. And you kind of can put a little placeholder there so you can access that again in the future without having to make a role for breaking into computer systems. That role against the admin. You don't have to do that in the future. Does anyone know the hacking term for putting something in there that you can then go back to in the future? Is this a trick? No, it's not. I don't know. I didn't know what found the answer. Yes. I don't know. Thanks for listening to Nights of the Night at Action Play podcast. Visit kotnpodcast.com for more information on this and other adventures.

Kevin, what do you want to do first? Is this anywhere who runs or operates at Cleveland Police Museum? Is it a part of the police department? Are they all vampires? Oh yeah, it's not on the website. Not at that time. The Committee on the Adventurer. People, we hate humans. Hey, the earth. Listen to us, Kettle. No, I'm lying. I don't know if we need to scare an old lady, but that's what I'm gonna do. Slow down, we don't need to. This is not Roberto, he's not gonna fuck her eye out. I'm gonna send a message to Futureq.
