Mister Dee? Are you in there?
Are you still depressed because your friends are missing? Na, I’m doing good.
Yeah, right. Look - you’re even neglecting your cat!
Oh, he’s fiiiine. Did you bring me food? No, because I’m not your owner.
Whatever. I can just order on my phone. I don’t need to go outside anymore. The food
comes to me. With my mini-fridge and my bed… All I need now is a portable bathroom-
Oooooooooh-kaaaaaay, that’s enough of THAT! What do you waaaant!?
You had a package come in. Why is it opened already?
It’s a mystery! Why must you go through my mail?
What is this? It’s a card key.
Awh yeh? IS IT? Here I thought it was a roast turkey. What is it a key FOR?
If you’re gonna be rude about it, I’m not going to tell you.
Oh, Darlink, wise one, forgive my impertinence. Good boy.
This is the same card key that opens the sleeping pods.
The pods? Yeah it’s meant as an override to
get people out during emergencies or if the main mechanism goes offline. I had one for your booth.
But I don’t know which pod THIS keycard goes to. The pods are all open now, right?
So why did someone send me this? Hmm. Only one way to find out I guess.
Alright. So what are we looking for?
Something. Well that’s helpful.
So uh… what do I do with it? Swipe it against the sensor.
Try a different one.
Weird. Hey, Darlink-?
Is this Melissa’s pod? Why’s it all busted? She must’ve forced her way out… or something,
Really? If that happened
why are all the shards inside the pod then? Erm. Maybe someone… cleaned them up and put
them inside. Yeah, okay.
Not that one.
I don’t remember this booth.
Someone scratched out the name. Hmm. Probably just a backup booth.
Are these the only pods? Are there any others we might be missing?
Na, I don’t think so. Na. It was just for the PD crew. Na. Na. Well…….
You used to live here? Well yeah, but obviously
back then it didn’t look like trash.
I’d almost forgotten we had a booth here.
Why were you keeping one at home? It was the prototype. But then again,
I don’t see any reason why the keycard would work on it, assuming it still exists…
Two bedrooms? Dolan, was someone else here?
You’re not the first housemate I’ve lived with, y’know.
Should I take a look? I’m not going in there.
I found it!
Uh, Dolan? Didn’t you say this one would be empty?
Uh…. hello? Uh. H-hi.
Hi….? Um. Do I know you?
Erm…… my name’s…. Darlink?
“Darlink? I’ve never heard of you before. Do you mind if I ask what
you’re doing in my house? Well this is gonna sound strange, but uh…
this house has been abandoned for years. And you are the LAST person I thought we’d ever find here.
As much as I’d like to believe you, I kinda… just… don’t? And who is “we”?
Darlink, who’re you talking to-?
So….. uh….. turns out the pod was occupied.
Dolan? Is that really you? Really me? ME? What about you? I simply refuse to
believe that you are here right now and you exist.
And why are you BRITISH?
That seems… confusingly… rude?
So I think that means it really IS you, Dolan. I am so confused.
It’s been a long time, hasn’t it? That’s an understatement.
Yeah, she’s real alright. Unless I’m going crazy too.
Darlink, please accept my apologies for the rudeness I displayed earlier.
I didn’t realise you were here with Dolan. No, that’s okay! I’m the one who should be
apologising to you for uh…- Oh! I guess I haven’t
introduced myself yet, have I?
Hello there. My name is Shima.
