SPEAKER_06

Hey everyone, thanks for listening to Star Wars Empire Wreckers, the Toy Story 5 of Star Wars Actual Play Podcasts. Who's ready for a very necessary adventure today?

SPEAKER_03

Khaliset is ready for a very necessary adventure where you learn that the source of all the problems is those mysterious tablets that keep ending up in a house.

SPEAKER_04

Hello, Jehovah Crissant, and uh I don't know if uh my character arc just ended after I almost got incinerated in a garbage compactor. I feel as though I wonder I would want people that to know that I have additional memories that I want people to know of that are more happy than almost getting incinerated. I agree, by the way.

SPEAKER_08

Much like in Toy Story, Stumber's design spin of Stumber and Chris Elements, the no one remembers And much like Jesse in a Toy Story, Illyria was also abandoned.

SPEAKER_06

And if you're ready to hate short people, why don't you come along with us to a long time ago in a galaxy far far away in Randy Newman's Star Wars? It is the time of terror. The evil galactic empire has risen to power, and the blades of the Imperial Knights enforce the rule of the insidious Emperor Palpatine. With their enemies seemingly vanquished, the Empire has begun the construction of a new weapon of terror, a battle station of immense size and power. With knowledge of the battle station reaching the ears of the Empire wreckers, the former Imperial Knights and their allies set into motion a plan to stop the weapon before it can be brought to life. So last time you uh reunited with Illyria's parents. And it felt so good. And Illyria's father, Illude, turned out how he ended up in the clutches of uh the Imperial Knight Jarek was that he had been arrested while snooping around uh imperial sites, uh, namely the planet Geonosis, which he uh found out was building an immense kyber-powered battle station.

SPEAKER_03

Ooh, now it's up to us, we gotta get rid of that thing.

SPEAKER_06

After returning to Alishan, and I assume telling people about this.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Uh you have many allies who may have had uh some thoughts about what to do, some uh perhaps expertise into the Empire's machinations, uh perhaps some uh uh expertise in kyber-based weaponry, some experience with the Separatists and the Decimators, uh, you have Zin of the Senate, you have Gray of the ISB, you have Frank also of the ISB, technically a number of Jedi to help you, and Illyria's parents with their expertise from uh the Chess Expansionary Defense Force. And you have gathered together in a little meeting after everybody had a chance to go away and do their own investigations. Uh there's all of your friends. There's also the what's left of the crew of the Yonder after their captain betrayed them that has been doing some work for you as well, acting as uh go-betweens, going out on various supply runs. You're kind of creating quite a little group of uh rebels on this planet. Rebel rebel. And uh Gray seems to be uh leading the discussion. He says, Is everyone here? Is everyone we're good here?

SPEAKER_03

I think we're all here. I don't know if everything's good, but we're here.

SPEAKER_06

Presente?

SPEAKER_03

Presenting Chrysant.

SPEAKER_06

Alright, so here's what we know. Uh thanks to Elude for alerting us to this weapon that they're building near Geonosis. Um now, in my experience, I know that uh Geonosis was sterilized. So shortly after the war. Perhaps related to this project, perhaps not. But uh if we're going to be trying to destroy this thing, uh there are a few options. I think maybe we can present them to the group here. The things that have been presented to me that I've kind of written down. Uh option one would be just finding a way to destroy it.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_06

Which is possible, we could do that, but uh the Empire does have the resources to build this thing. They probably would have the resources to build another one. So that would delay the creation of this weapon, but it wouldn't end it permanently. Option number two, uh, we could find a way to take out the project heads, the scientists. Uh this is kyber-based weaponry. I believe uh, unfortunately, the group of you were perhaps involved in a uh shipment of uh kyber crystals uh from an ancient Star Destroyer, and he kind of nods to to Relin.

SPEAKER_03

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Uh that I believe if my next energy project the Emperor's Energy Project may be connected to this. Uh, I think the project head was uh uh Galen Urso. That is a name that we could investigate, but again, um cut off one head, another will appear in its place, the Empire will just replace them. Somebody who is willing to do the work. Yeah, but it'll start out slow. Option number three, we know these are kyber-based weapons. There are many worlds that they're probably uh mining these crystals from Ilum, potentially uh Jedda, potentially who knows where else. But in order to prevent this weapon from being created, we would have to find a way to neutralize uh all of the kyber across the galaxy that would have the benefit of also disabling the weapons of the Imperial Knights, but it would also be a hindrance if uh you or another group had any interest in restarting the Order of the Jedi. And I have heard other rumors about other types of weapons in my time with the ISB. The Empire may start investigating things that are less stable, dark matter, quintessence, that kind of thing. It could jump start uh an arms race ahead 20, 30, 50 years if we uh reduce kyber weaponry kyber weaponry and we know what it does. The other stuff is a big question mark. So that's an option, but not one that I would uh particularly relish. Recommend now. But all of these options have one thing in common. If we destroy the superstructure and they build another one, those orders come from one person. If we disable their ability to use kyber, the decision to switch to another source of energy, that comes from one person. If we take out the project heads, the decisions of who to hire, that comes from one person.

SPEAKER_03

Yet they could take out the emperor.

SPEAKER_06

I think that if we want to stop this thing from being utilized, we need to stop the man who's going to utilize it.

SPEAKER_03

That was real ambitious.

SPEAKER_04

Um, he uh not not for nothing, but uh between you and me, I feel like the Emperor scares me, uh, because the amount that he made me trust him. Um the fact that I was willing to do anything for him really was is uh makes me worry about what he's capable of.

SPEAKER_06

Well then hopefully we can't uh we won't have to come face to face with him. From what I've heard, uh he is a wizard of great power.

SPEAKER_03

Chris, are you are you worried that uh you'd come face to face with him and be like, you know, Chris, I always believed in you, and then you resolve to destroy him would just like splinter. How do you lose my number one guy? I know you, Chris, I know you inside and out. Not inside, not technically. That's the Zen only. I loved him so much. In a very platonic way. In a normal way.

SPEAKER_07

He did tell us we were good special boys.

SPEAKER_03

We were special boys.

SPEAKER_04

We still are special boys. I know we have to be a good one.

SPEAKER_03

Oh god, a gold star I I could go for a gold star sticker. I know we're all susceptible to that sort of thing, but we gotta stay strong. He was he is an evil wizard. We used to get uh we used to get uh Master Sedjaw to occasionally give us gold stars, so it's like okay, uh an older authority faker is approving of us. We got our fix.

SPEAKER_04

We need we need dog toys in order to let people know that like we we we we just wanna be loved. We just wanna love and be loved in return. Free to a good home.

SPEAKER_03

Aware of wreckers, please, pet wreckers. But like I I see what you're saying, Grey. Like, did you have something in mind? Because like, obviously, I don't think a uh you know a uh head-to-head assassination is gonna be a good idea against a Sith Lord.

SPEAKER_06

No, especially uh on Coruscant, where uh the Imperial Knights have their stronghold, where he's protected by Darth Vader and any number of other troops and ships in orbit. Is he giving any speeches sometime soon?

SPEAKER_03

I and a Quest of the Second, are they near a book depository? Well, I like where you're heavy.

SPEAKER_07

Including or excluding droid violence.

SPEAKER_03

Look, I don't approve of what happened to the Emperor, but the Emperor proved what happened to the Emperor. Sorry, Craig, go on.

SPEAKER_06

Well, you said would he be giving a speech somewhere? That, uh, I don't have access to, but uh you're right that drawing him off of Coruscent would be a good idea. And thanks to Elude's reconnaissance, we know that Geonosis is not very heavily defended. They seem to be using uh secrecy as their best defense. The less people who know about this project the better. And this is the type of project that the Emperor would periodically need to inspect himself if only to make sure that the construction workers and contractors are completing things on schedule. So I think that bureaucracy could be our way in. Bureaucracy?

SPEAKER_03

Do you mean uh kind of going in good like figuring out what his schedule is and seeing whether he'd be uh going near this thing, if they can.

SPEAKER_06

Then, now destroying the superstructure, regardless of whether or not Palpatine survives this, which I hope he doesn't, we should also make a play to destroy the superstructure. Hopefully we can do them both at the same time. Maybe his ship would be docked with it when it happens. But to do that, we d obviously don't have conventional firepower. We don't have access to the schematics, but we know it is under construction. And a project like this is probably being uh contracted out to somebody that the Empire trusts. And I think that would probably be KDY, the Kuat Driveyards. They and their subsidiaries built the Republic's Grand Army, they did it for ten years in complete secrecy for the Kaminoans, nobody heard of Peep. So I think the Empire would trust them for this project.

SPEAKER_04

Do we infiltrate the ranks of what were they called again? Kuat Driveyards. Uh do uh do we pretend to be be Zem and then uh uh spring a trap?

SPEAKER_06

Well, here's what I'm thinking. We c this superstructure, we don't have the weapons to destroy it, but it's big. We can use its mass against itself. If we can get the override codes for the construction vehicles from somebody high up in KDY, we can use them to drag the superstructure out of orbit, send it crash-landing onto the surface of Geonosis.

SPEAKER_03

Oh.

SPEAKER_06

But maybe, if we can time it right, with the Emperor's flagship still attached.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, Geonosis is you know is a dead planet now. You said it was sterilized, so it's not like we'd be uh killing innocent Geonosians.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

More than they already have been.

SPEAKER_06

In order to send the override codes, we would need a ship capable of broadcasting them, and for that we would need a ship that could plausibly be at Geonosis. Now, you mentioned something about a light cruiser that was in the hands of some perhaps allies.

SPEAKER_03

Oh yeah, the one that um Ahsoka Ahsoka took.

SPEAKER_06

We need to get our hands on some IFF codes, some up-to-date credentials, some security clearances to make sure that we can present that ship as it's supposed to be there. That's that's a future problem. For now, our first step is to number one get those override codes. Number two, get the schematics of the battle station. Number three, get Palpatine's inspection schedule. All of those things would probably be in the hands of one person.

SPEAKER_04

Can we have like a uh a Sodobird box for all of these moments of this plan? I know podcasting is not a visual medium, but uh You can pretend.

SPEAKER_06

You can pretend there's a Sodobird box around you. Yeah, dog.

SPEAKER_03

Visualize it in your in your mind.

SPEAKER_04

It's in my mind, mind flute music. We need somebody to say I'm in. I'm in.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

The plan. And Grace brings up a hologram of a middle-aged man in uh a human man in an imperial uniform. And he says, This here is a uh an imperial moth. He's also a member of a prestigious shipbuilding family that is heavily involved in Kuat driveyards. Now, I don't have any proof that he is, because this is a very secret project, but if anybody would have Palpatine's inspection schedule, the schematics to this weapon, and the override codes to Kuat's construction vehicles, it would be him.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, so like what do we think? Uh sneak it sneak it into his place, his uh his home, snooping around his computer?

SPEAKER_06

Perhaps. We don't know uh what kind of personal security he might have, what kind of things he would have on his person. He might be arrogant enough to think he can get away with having a local copy of things. But uh, his name is Moth Loam Eric, and he is holding a wedding for his daughter, Clarion, at his family's getaway estate on Spira. She's marrying a uh Hugo Holowan from a family of droid manufacturers. It's a very uh high society thing. It's a business merger and a romantic venture.

SPEAKER_04

Is it more a romantic venture than a business ad uh venture, or uh were these two kids forced together?

SPEAKER_06

Well, it seems to be something that is probably going to pay dividends to both families.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, but that's not what I that's not what I mean. I'm meaning if if they're in love, well I guess that doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_03

Are you wondering if you could maybe seduce the bride away, you sir as a did? Ooh.

SPEAKER_04

No, not everything. I just what if I just love the ancestor of uh what if I just want the be uh the best for these people? You seduce them both separately, Frankenfurter style. And then you bring them both together and you go like it wasn't all bad, was it?

SPEAKER_07

The women of this line have gone through enough.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, what if what if you seduce them both separately and you invite them both back to the hotel room and then they see each other and it's like I didn't it's like it's like you look at the Pink Colada song Getting caught in the rain. I didn't know that you love green twinks and getting caught in the rain. We have more in common than we knew. And then you have a three-way. What was the name of this moth again?

SPEAKER_06

Uh Loam Eric.

SPEAKER_03

Loam, thank you.

SPEAKER_04

Because Eric Loam is too normal a name for a Star Wars character.

SPEAKER_07

Because it's dirty, it's like fucking earth like Meyer.

SPEAKER_04

I just appreciate that this is apparently both a possibly a heist operation and a wedding crash. Fuck yeah. Here for it. Maybe a wife swap if you're lucky. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_03

Wait, who's whose wife are you swapping? Does Chris swap uh Starzan for Clarion? Is Starzan is.

SPEAKER_04

Well, Starzan, Her Hercules is the entertainment, right? At the best time.

SPEAKER_03

Hercules is the entertainment. Oh, do you have to operate Zen to be your date? Or uh is this a um, hey, we're going separately so we can both F around?

SPEAKER_06

Well, Zen is actually how I learned about this in the first place. She has still some contacts in the Senate that were able to uh help us narrow down when it would be appropriate to approach and perhaps uh steal from the moth. And this type of event will probably have security. Um, it's likely that the Hollowan family is providing droids. But there's gonna be a lot of people there, gonna be a lot of drunk people there, gonna be a lot of people uh who have access to information, security clearances. The Eric family is a very uh storied and prestigious family in KDY. Uh the Empire uh maybe even sending an Imperial Knight to give the Emperor's blessing to the wedding. We don't know who's gonna be there exactly. Uh Zin wasn't able to get a guest list, unfortunately.

SPEAKER_03

Uh maybe it'll be Argo and we can just get him to join us too. Does this mean? Okay, does this mean dare I hope, dare I, dare I wish? Is this gonna be a dress-up episode? You will have to look the part.

SPEAKER_06

You may want to disguise yourselves. You are wanted criminals after all.

SPEAKER_07

Oh yeah. I'm I made a note in my book that says his daughter Clarion, no relation. Wait, yes, relation.

SPEAKER_03

Yes relation.

SPEAKER_06

It's an old family name.

SPEAKER_03

Did you start it? Were you the first Clarion? Not you, but uh Probably not. Were you already Clarion the uh 19th?

SPEAKER_06

I mean, this is the planet where like every third guy is called Kuod of Kuat.

SPEAKER_07

Was she named after the ancestor who was a pop star or the ants or the engine?

SPEAKER_04

That could.

SPEAKER_03

Or is it or is it like Mormons where it's like you get your secret special name that's been conferred to us by God and you can't tell anyone what it is? And then it's like everyone who goes on a like a certain day of the week just gets the exact same name and there's only like No, is that what they do?

SPEAKER_07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Because like what what are what's uh do we do we have holographic disguises or ways to get those, or should we just like uh do makeup? I can dye my hair. What do you guys think?

SPEAKER_07

I mean not blue.

SPEAKER_03

How do you think I'd look as a blonde?

SPEAKER_04

I'm looking at your character.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I can put on lipstick.

SPEAKER_04

Hell yeah, dog. I've got I've got it. I will pretend to be a Wookiee. Just start collecting a whole bunch of hair from the drain. Uh I will. You said uh you said Zinn's not coming, right?

SPEAKER_06

Well, Zinn doesn't have an invitation. Like, she doesn't have the invitation list. She was the one who knew uh that the wedding was happening. Um she was arrested by the ISB. So she would probably need to be in disguise as well. If you wanted to take her as a plus one, she might be able to she would probably be able to give you a blue on social checks when dealing with like Senate and Imperial people. I I need to take my girl with me then. Even if she just like stays on the ship and like guides you through the earpiece, that would kind of be a uh a general blue you'd be able to add for her advice. Hell yeah, I'm for it.

SPEAKER_04

You don't want Zinn there to to do a group I i I I I do I actually uh I do want Zinn there, but I'm wondering if it is more dangerous to have her there than to not have her there.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, could it possibly be any more dangerous than to have us there?

SPEAKER_04

Fair.

SPEAKER_03

And then you guys try to zoom someone together.

SPEAKER_04

I I I will t I will text Zinn, hey, did uh did you want to be on the uh on the ground on this, or did you want to be uh the uh the guy at the desk with the uh with the keyboard?

SPEAKER_06

So she's standing across the holographic table from you and she's typing into her data pad. She sends you a message of like like two foot emojis, then a table emoji, and then like a reclining person emoji.

SPEAKER_04

She doesn't want to come. She's okay being the car the the keyboard.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, she wants to put her feet up. Is that how that should be interpreted?

SPEAKER_04

That's how I interpret it.

SPEAKER_03

See, because I I was thinking uh interpreting that like, oh, is that like she wants to be dancing on the tables, like she wants to be in the thick of the party?

SPEAKER_04

No, you think it was to interpret it.

SPEAKER_07

Considering she's texting instead of calling, I think that answers the question.

SPEAKER_06

That their feet on the table. She's like in the room with you.

SPEAKER_03

Just hold up your data texting instead of saying anything.

SPEAKER_04

Well, he was texting her first. You gotta make a perception check on that one.

SPEAKER_03

How should this be interpreted?

SPEAKER_04

God damn it. And I'll I I'll text uh I'll text down Zinn. Uh I I know what you're talking about, but can you put it in words so that my friends are?

SPEAKER_07

Oh my god. Oh my god, are you coming or not?

unknown

Are you coming or not?

SPEAKER_03

This is why Elyria can't have a romantic murder.

SPEAKER_04

The main dude is just like putting on a presentation and we're all just texting Zinn behind his back. All all of uh Chris's presentation.

SPEAKER_06

All of you were in except for Gray. They're auto forwarded to a group chat.

SPEAKER_03

So you're just Elyria's just saying to Zinn, Are you coming or not?

SPEAKER_06

Yes. And Zin, she's like, Well, look, I've always wanted to get fucking shit faced at a wedding.

SPEAKER_03

Oh yeah. Me too.

SPEAKER_06

Cause a big scene.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

If you think it would be beneficial to have me there on the floor, I I will be willing to disguise myself since I am also a wanted criminal.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, we would all have to disguise ourselves anyway. I think uh having I think having you around would be a uh more of a boon than a blessing, and uh or a bo uh uh a boon than a curse, I should say. Uh uh so I I think you should come along.

SPEAKER_03

So just to clarify, how was your text to Chris meant to be interpreted? Because I interpret it as dancing on the table, Chris interpreted it as putting your feet up on the table, like you're relaxing.

SPEAKER_06

Oh no, I said that he would need to give me a foot massage later.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, that makes sense. Oh we're we're not we're not a perfect couple, but we're getting it. You know what? None of us interpret it as horny, that's the problem.

SPEAKER_03

That's true.

SPEAKER_04

We should have known better. Our first instinct. What do you mean, horny? There's just a there's no you uh foot massages don't have to be horny. I know there's a whole um Marcella's there there's a whole uh uh fuck, what's it, uh pulp fiction conversation about this, but you give a man a foot massage?

SPEAKER_07

I just think when you ask for a foot massage and someone touch starts touching your butt, uh the foot massage is gonna wry.

SPEAKER_06

Look, all I am saying is that I'm not going to be around uh Frank for a little while, regardless of whether or not I stay on the ship, and someone is going to have to tend to these Tootsies.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, does Frank do your foot massages?

SPEAKER_06

If you've never gotten a foot massage from a droid, you are missing out.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, does Frank is Frank here?

SPEAKER_06

Frank's Frank's there, looming.

SPEAKER_03

Frank, do you do foot massages?

SPEAKER_06

I do foot massages.

SPEAKER_03

Amen. I might take you up on one of those later if you if you're free. But you got real strong hands.

SPEAKER_07

Does the droid try and touch your butt half a time?

SPEAKER_06

He looks at his hands, he flexes his fingers, his unblinking KX droid eyes, and he says, Yes, I do.

SPEAKER_03

Uh that sounds a little threatening. It's okay, we know he's just very frank. Anyways, that aside. So so Zid's gonna come with us, we all go in disguises. What kind of disguises do we think? Like Defali come in colors other than green, Chris?

SPEAKER_04

I think all of us need to uh wear fake mustaches because none of us have mustaches.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, cause cause you can send the crew of the yonder to get supplies. Whatever you want, they can bring back. And then I'll just roll to see how uh good they do and if if you'll need to pay out the ass for it.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, what do we th what do we think? How how do we all want to disguise ourselves? Do do Falline cut come in different colors?

SPEAKER_06

I mean generally just green.

SPEAKER_03

Just green? You maybe change the hue of your green. Yeah, I'll I'll put on some self-tanner and wear a wig.

SPEAKER_07

I'm afraid I will need a holographic disguise matrix. Yeah, do we have any butt any of those lying around?

SPEAKER_03

Could the crew of the yawner get us one?

SPEAKER_06

Uh, we're just gonna put on some makeup and uh we're gonna become very different people and cause the thing about a holographic disguise matrix is it's holographic, so if you need to like touch anything or do any slow dancing, it may not hold up.

SPEAKER_03

Ooh, slow dancing. I do not want people to touch me. Don't touch me. Yeah, but see, Elyria, you gotta you gotta inhabit a part because if you go and you just act like yourself and you're like, don't touch me, don't look at me, and then people are gonna be like, man, that seems like that autistic Imperial Knight that left.

SPEAKER_07

Why would anyone say that?

SPEAKER_03

Well, you have a you have a very distinctive presence, Elyria. Look, if you want to do a uh holographic disguise matrix and just don't let anyone touch you, that's reasonable.

SPEAKER_07

Okay, do you want to paint my body a color other than blue?

SPEAKER_03

Do I personally want to do that?

SPEAKER_07

I mean, since you're off seem to be offering.

SPEAKER_06

I have also become proficient with airbrushes.

SPEAKER_03

Oh yeah, see Frank's here to help. Frank's a pal.

SPEAKER_06

I have been adding my own graffiti tags to the walls.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, cool. I was wondering what those cool that cool graffiti was like was from. I was like, is that from a young hooligan? But I don't think we really got a lot of young hooligans around here.

SPEAKER_06

And it just seems to be a lot of like QR codes.

SPEAKER_03

If you scan one, well, okay, is it gonna it's not gonna brick my data pad if I scan this, is it?

SPEAKER_06

Why don't you try it and find out?

SPEAKER_03

Can I get a data pad I don't use that often? Get a random data pad with nothing on it and try scanning it.

SPEAKER_06

You can you can scan it and it brings up like a rotating, like early 90s CGI like landscape of just a bunch of weird random shapes that probably seem very entertaining to a droid.

SPEAKER_03

Is it like watching the uh the old Windows XP screensaver?

SPEAKER_04

Ooh. Like the like the uh uh maze?

SPEAKER_03

Oh hell yeah, I love that.

SPEAKER_05

I'm not graduated to mazes yet, I am still doing the pipes.

SPEAKER_03

Hey man, you're doing a great job with the pipes, I love it. Love what you've done with the pipes.

SPEAKER_04

I like what how you lay Zen pipe. What what? I think I admi I think I would admire his pipe laying skills.

SPEAKER_03

I'm sure you would. I'm sure you would. But uh yeah, if Frank will help us. Just because just because I like someone's pipe laying skills.

SPEAKER_04

I'm a fan of how this guy lays a pipe. I don't know what that's what is the deal with pipe laying?

SPEAKER_03

What Zinn, are you also a fan of how Frank lays the pipe?

SPEAKER_05

I think Frank is gay.

SPEAKER_03

Oh yeah, if I I I did kinda yeah, I did get that feeling like he you were gonna he was gonna have a uh an enemies to love us with uh with grey. But anyways. So Elyria, if you wanna do you just wanna like put in some contact, does it get painted human color?

SPEAKER_06

I mean she could just get put put in some context and dye her hair purple and be a Pantoran.

SPEAKER_03

Oh yeah, that's true. You don't even have to get paint.

SPEAKER_07

Can I can I wear a wig?

SPEAKER_06

You can wear a wig.

SPEAKER_04

Do you wear wigs? When will you wear wigs?

SPEAKER_03

When will you wear wigs?

SPEAKER_07

Right now.

SPEAKER_04

Fuck yeah. The prophecy has been foretold.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I'll I'll uh I'll I'll ask them to bring me some uh some self-tanner and and a wig. Just put shove my my antennae under there.

SPEAKER_07

And just do them up like little pigtails. You know, as one would have a hairstyle in a sci-fi video game designed by men who don't know the hairstyles of women.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Something like that, yeah. There's two little pigtails straight on the top of the head. No, I'll do I'll do self-tanner and a brown wig. I'm a nondescript human woman.

SPEAKER_04

I will have a very nice suit and a mu mustache and uh glasses, and I will wear a hat.

SPEAKER_03

Are you gonna get airbrushed a uh a different shade of green?

SPEAKER_04

No, I don't know you need to go that far, I don't think. Is it time for my alter ego twercules to appear as part of the entertainment? As part of the entertainment.

SPEAKER_03

Has made enough of a name for himself to uh That's a good point.

SPEAKER_04

Perhaps I should have an I'm trying to think of other guys as other reasons. I could be sec like hired as security.

SPEAKER_06

Well, because Twercules is kind of known as a like he recently got some fame in like some underworld gladiator arenas. Um That's true.

SPEAKER_03

If you went as twercules, you are an established presence where it's like, oh yeah, sure, we got twercules as the entertainment. He's a celebrity.

SPEAKER_04

He he fought that Rath Ghoul. Or uh that uh Starweird. Death Rate? Starghool?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

That Dementor.

SPEAKER_03

He happened to be there at that uh that bar for that Bachelorette party when things kind of went wrong for that Imperial Aw, but you know. Yeah, as one does. Yeah, so Star Wars is Torcules, he's hired as the entertainment.

SPEAKER_06

Star Wars is Torcules.

SPEAKER_04

Star Wars is Torcules. Torquilles has taken over the franchise. That's the next that's the next movie.

SPEAKER_03

That's that's the uh fan is Torcules. Leave me alone, I'm sick of it.

SPEAKER_04

That feels like a wrestling thing. Uh Star Wars is Raw is war. Raw is war.

SPEAKER_03

God damn.

SPEAKER_04

It's taking over the franchise.

SPEAKER_03

We'll we'll give our our shopping list to the the crew of the yonder then. Oh, and fancy dressed clothes, of course.

SPEAKER_06

So uh disguise kits, those aren't um restricted or anything. Anybody who wants to disguise their facial features a little bit uh can use one. Uh and then if you want uh your clothes to have any specific. So there are some clothes that can give you uh bonuses. So you could have banal apparel if you don't want to be spotted. I want to banal the shit out of this apparel. Well, I don't know if I don't want to be spotted. Uh if you want to draw attention to yourself so that maybe somebody else, if you wear resplendent robes, then allies in medium range can add blues to per s perception skullduggery and stealth checks if you're drawing attention to yourself.

SPEAKER_04

I I I will do I will do that. I can be the guy that distracts while you guys do uh what you need to do. Hello, fellow rich people. And you know, I could still distract people, and having uh uh Zinn with me will also will all already give me a uh a blue here, so I will be resplendent.

SPEAKER_03

Well, because aren't there like entertainers' clothes or like uh performers performers' attire?

SPEAKER_06

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, if you're there to be if at as like uh twerkleys to be the entertainer.

SPEAKER_06

Adds blue to checks to perform or attract attention.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, well there you go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's better.

SPEAKER_06

Entertainer. So um a cape, if you want a cape, uh a cape is uh 900 credits if you want a cape.

SPEAKER_03

What does a cape do?

SPEAKER_06

Uh well it depends.

SPEAKER_03

Um razzle dazzle.

SPEAKER_06

Uh a black synthetic nano silk capelet with blue satin lining. Once per encounter, you can upgrade the difficulty of a deception check you make and add an automatic triumph to the result.

SPEAKER_03

Ooh.

SPEAKER_06

So if any of you are good at deception, uh that you think upgrading it to get a free triumph would be useful.

SPEAKER_03

Hold up. Can you wear that in addition to the uh the robes?

SPEAKER_04

It's a cape. It's a cape, so I'd have to wear it on its own.

SPEAKER_03

Because oh hang on a sec. Because how how would that be added if it's not something that's like in here already?

SPEAKER_06

Uh you would write it down.

SPEAKER_03

Don't make me do that. Hang on.

SPEAKER_06

Don't make it don't make this analog.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, notes for the item. Plus cape. Do we all need capes?

SPEAKER_06

So there is a dark blue Shantung satin cape with baffle weave liner. Adds two blacks to all checks made to detect concealed items on the wearer's person.

SPEAKER_04

What if we're wearing these as a way to blend in, but then we get there and we're the only ones wearing capes when you stand out like sort of.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, that's the same. Don't fuck with these guys.

SPEAKER_03

It would be weirder if we weren't wearing capes.

SPEAKER_06

Capes are so last season, you guys. Uh if you if you want to try and conceal any weapons or other items, maybe uh that dark blue cape. Uh a bespoke tailored Pantor and silk capelet in white with turquoise taffeta lining, add two blues to all charm checks. Better than woke, it's bespoke.

SPEAKER_03

Could I take the concealing cape or the uh the lying cape? Because I wouldn't be able to bring my gun, but like could maybe smuggle in my light dagger. But also, if I'm getting the diplomats' robes that are like this'll this'll give you blues talkie to underlings if we happen to get caught when we're trying to infiltrate. Maybe I should just lead in to be able to lie and then put my lightsaber on my bus. I'm gonna get the lion cape. What was the lying cape?

SPEAKER_06

The deception cape?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Um that gives you uh once per encounter, increase the upgrade the difficulty of a deception check and add an automatic triumph.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, sorry. Up upgrade the difficulty?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. So turn a purple into a red, but you get a free triumph. That seems fucking worth it, honestly. Is there is there a charm version of that cape? Yeah, there is a there's an add two blues to all charm checks cape. I want that.

SPEAKER_04

I think I probably have to get that one too. To all charms? Unless there's a performance cape that I can go with my performance rope. Yeah, there's none for performing. Which is weird because a cape is a performance.

SPEAKER_06

I feel like if two of you are wearing the same cape, uh It'd be awkward. That might be a faux pas. And a clue. Yeah, it's like you're all wearing the ugliest cape, no demand. It's like, why are you wearing that cape? Oh, it gives me good stats.

SPEAKER_03

Cause we I I might want to try to smuggle in my light dagger, even though it would be risky, but it is pretty small. Um how would a model 58 concealment holster work? It says it's built for handguns, but I also my light dagger's pretty small.

SPEAKER_06

Only only usable for light and holdout blaster pistols.

SPEAKER_03

Uh.

SPEAKER_06

Uh, but because do you have any hard points available on your lightsaber?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I have one hard point.

SPEAKER_06

There is, for one hard point, you can get a hilt masking kit. Ooh, that's good for masking hilts. I love how everything is a kit, by the way. So it's basically like, what is it disguised as? Is it a k is it hitting in it hidden in a cane? Is it like hidden as as like part of a blaster?

SPEAKER_03

Okay, what if I have it.

SPEAKER_06

Uh part of a binocular is it like a telescope? This is my eyeglass.

SPEAKER_03

What if it's something where it's like I I add something so I can strap it to like the inside of my thigh, so if I get the pat down and it's like, what's this? That's my penis. Okay.

SPEAKER_06

Well, um, so the hilt masking kit. The the cost, rarity, and encumbrance of a hilt masking kit are the same of that the item is meant to look like.

SPEAKER_03

A penis is very common.

SPEAKER_06

Well, so you would need some synth skin.

SPEAKER_03

This is my strap. Yeah, if you if you're just in case.

SPEAKER_06

If you just if you just want to cover it in synth skin and have it and have it dangling, that would be 10 credits.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, man, I'm gonna do it. So can I do the optional mods? Make it very realistic, and bump that up to 200 credits.

SPEAKER_06

Very realistic.

SPEAKER_03

I'm just gonna turn my lightsaber into a dildo bat.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so if you wanna cover it in synth skin, you can.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Uh it's got a vein. It looks very it looks very, very realistic.

SPEAKER_03

Look what I've done with the guys! Oh man, does it have a special? It's gonna be special where it's like when you go to turn it on, the urethra opens up to let the blade out without damaging the skin. I'm so tired and sick.

unknown

Uh uh.

SPEAKER_03

I'm taking both the optional mods, so it adds two failure.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so it's an it's an insanely realistic. How, because your yours is like a light dagger, so how uh how long is this? How long is your uh hilt normally?

SPEAKER_03

Uh 12 inches, I think, my guy. Yeah, my dog. I'm swaying.

SPEAKER_04

The license for that thing? Concealed carry.

SPEAKER_03

So, yeah, no, it so with the optional mods, it adds three failure to attempts to find and no one wants to touch it.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, yeah, you can disguise it as a packer.

SPEAKER_03

Hell yeah. Trans-Icon Calliset. Not actually.

SPEAKER_08

Well, it's almost it'll be over the time people hear this.

SPEAKER_06

Well, are you are you gonna disguise yourself as a uh as a dude then? Or or is or are you just are you just swanging?

SPEAKER_03

I'm just swanging. Okay.

SPEAKER_06

Okay. You still want to wear a dress. You just want to be swanging.

SPEAKER_03

Look, I still I still wanna feel pretty at a I I still wanna look pretty at a dress. I just also want to have a fat a fat swanger.

SPEAKER_04

We we could give you a fake mustache and call you Sebastian, and you sneak into the party as somebody else. Do you call your 12-inch swangin' thing little Sebastian? Your your 12th knight.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, I'm I'm Kala. This is my set.

SPEAKER_04

Perfect.

SPEAKER_03

I don't know what that means. It doesn't mean anything.

SPEAKER_04

Set of low hangers.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, I I got my disguise. As soon as I got that, I kinda got it in place. Kala's just like standing in place and making it swing back and forth. I'm having fun. Wahoo!

SPEAKER_06

More than three shakes is just a yeah, so I don't think anybody got anything that's restricted. Uh so you could probably uh get everything for for regular cost. We're good noodles. Nobody, nobody needs a uh like even like a a canister of synth skin is not technically restricted. Yeah. Do you have uh because we have we know that Starzan is twercules? Do the rest of you have alternate identities?

SPEAKER_04

unknown

Marshy Tundra.

SPEAKER_03

Do we just want to try to bluff our way in or do we want to try to like uh dummy up some invites?

SPEAKER_07

I think if we try to bluff our way in. Fucking Garrus from Mass Effect?

SPEAKER_04

I think if we Starzan.

SPEAKER_06

What are they, Maori of people who exist on Earth? I guess. Yeah. This is different.

SPEAKER_07

This is totally different.

SPEAKER_06

This is different. I'm allowed to make fun of it.

SPEAKER_07

Uh people also ask, are Pantorans chiss?

SPEAKER_03

Oh what?

SPEAKER_04

If we fail, we still have another chance of getting in by sneaking in.

SPEAKER_03

That's true. Yeah, because if if Chris takes the lead trying to bluff our way in, and then we're all just like your posse.

SPEAKER_04

Any any and any time you uh there has to be a lie, you could always like bump in. And since we're beside uh Zinn trying to get into this place here, uh I think that gives us an extra blue.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Is that how that works, or how does that work?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, that's how it works, I think. Right?

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, let's do this. We're all ready. We all look good. Look at good gag.

SPEAKER_04

We start punching each other in the arms. We got this. Come on, we got this. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Ow.

SPEAKER_04

How? How would you do it? I'm sorry, I'm just so psyched. It's been a while since we've done uh since we've done ourselves a a good old-fashioned sneakin.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I love a dress-up episode. Let's roll.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, he's sneaking everywhere.

SPEAKER_06

Sneakin' around. Zin Zin says, uh, Chris, okay, so uh my right Leku I put in your laser sword, in the left Leku I put in my blaster. So if we need to pull it out, it's in there.

SPEAKER_03

Just reach into my brains.

SPEAKER_04

That is the sexiest thing you've said in an hour.

SPEAKER_03

Oh yeah, Star Z and Elyria, they have you concealed weapons to sneak in.

SPEAKER_04

Um, hmm. A giant sword might be conspicuous. That's why it's so funny that I hid I hid my lightsaber inside of a giant sword.

SPEAKER_07

Can I just like strap my lightsaber to my thigh and hide it under my holographic outfit?

SPEAKER_04

Would they allow me a cultural sword?

SPEAKER_06

Um, I think it might give you away because it's from a very specific culture.

SPEAKER_03

I mean what if Okay, Star Z, what if you put like uh an orange like sheath, uh an orange silicon condom on yours and you're like, oh no, it's a prop, it's for the Torcules bit. Like you have to have the safety tip on it.

SPEAKER_04

I think I'll be okay unarmed. I'm a pretty good brawler. Yeah. You are a pretty good brawler. I just wish you were a little bit taller. He's like seven foot one. He's like eight nine, I would call. He's like ten feet tall. We just keep we just keeping it. I just want to let it be known that I said what I said.

SPEAKER_03

Every episode Starzak gets a little bit taller.

SPEAKER_04

I think Eden said I was seven foot one last time, and I was like, oh, uh, okay, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Well, I was the guy who was bad at the end of the day. Now it's can and Star Wars is seven foot one.

SPEAKER_06

Star Wars is seven foot one?

SPEAKER_03

He did it again.

SPEAKER_06

Oh boy.

SPEAKER_03

You know it's bad too. I was making I was making my notes to write down what everyone's aliases were and when I was writing down Star Z was put Star Wars there too. Uh I blame I'm gonna blame everything today on being sick. I'm just like, I'm sick. You can't expect it.

SPEAKER_04

I rolled a despair. I ru I wrote a roll to despair. I'm just really sick right now.

SPEAKER_03

You guys can't hold anything against me. I'm sick.

SPEAKER_04

I'm a perfect individual otherwise.

SPEAKER_03

I've never done anything wrong in my life.

SPEAKER_04

If I commit any war crimes today, it's because I'm sick.

SPEAKER_03

My tummy hurt! Okay, Jesus. Let's go. Let's roll.

SPEAKER_06

So, uh, you can set off uh either in your outfits if you want to get practiced at wearing them, or if you want to savor uh your last hours where you don't have to wear them before getting into character, uh, you can and set a course for Spira. Uh now, because uh Spira is a fairly uh popular vacation world, it's tropical, it's in the core. There's nothing going on that you would need to watch out for unless you potentially got accosted by the Empire, so maybe uh an astrogation, maybe uh one purple and a black astrogation just to make sure that you stay away from anybody who might want to scan the traffic.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, I can take away blacks now. Three success, two advantage.

SPEAKER_06

Do you want to do anything with those uh advantage? To maybe learn about the planet or where to land or anything else, see where people are gathering, see if there's anything else going on that maybe you could be a part of.

SPEAKER_07

Do we want to check out anything else on the planet or just get a good place to park?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, may maybe you just find like where where are people parking where a ship would not like stand out or be noticed.

SPEAKER_07

And perhaps like cultural norms of the place. Where are we going?

SPEAKER_03

Spira.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. Some improvements.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, let's see if we get a see if we get a feel for the social etiquette of Spira.

SPEAKER_06

Um well Spira is governed by the tourist guild, so uh the social norms are the customer is always right.

SPEAKER_07

Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_03

So what I'm what I'm hearing is this a this is not a you gotta stand on the right side of the elevator, otherwise everyone's gonna be pissed off at you, place.

SPEAKER_06

No.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_06

So uh because you got those two advantages, when you set down, um, do you want to sit down like in a uh in a city?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Spaceport.

SPEAKER_06

We should we should be uh privately privately public. Yeah, so uh one of the larger islands, Ataria, you can set down in the city there at the spaceport. Everything seems fine and normal. Famous last words. And when you disembark, because you got those two advantages on your astrogation, you can hear uh some some chatter. Uh a couple of uh well-dressed, they appear to be nobles. I don't know if you'd be able to immediately identify where they're from. Uh, but it's a couple, a man and a woman, and they're saying they're they're kind of arguing to each other, and the man is saying to the woman, now watch how much you're you're drinking this weekend. I don't need you embarrassing me in front of in front of the moths or in front of the hollow ones.

SPEAKER_04

The hollowans. Do we uh have we heard of who the hollowans are?

SPEAKER_06

Uh well, the groom in the wedding is Hugo Hollowan. Okay. So these people are going to the wedding.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. We we we can we uh we can either follow them or we can take their tickets. How many are there? Uh it's two of them.

SPEAKER_06

It's a couple of man and a woman.

SPEAKER_03

See, maybe if we just find another couple people who have tickets and we just keep pickpocketing tickets. What kind of man and woman are they?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

What would it be? Would that be skulldoggery to try to pickpocket their tickets?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

What would that be for skulldoggery?

SPEAKER_06

That would be either against vigilance or perception. Probably they're busy arguing with each other, so I would say probably vigilance. Um you are gonna have to pickpocket them, so I'm gonna say that is gonna be a two purple and a black skulldoggery.

SPEAKER_03

Two purple and a black. I got a yellow, three green. One success, one advantage. Give me those tickets, okay.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, you can pickpocket uh the man is carrying them in his back pocket. You can pull out two invitations.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, cool. Who wants to be uh who wants to take these two? We just gotta find three more people. Well, or or maybe just two more. Well, no, because we need for Chris and uh Zinn. Yeah. Oh, Chris and Zinn, this is a couple. Do you wanna be these ones?

SPEAKER_04

We could be these ones. Uh uh, do they do the tickets have somebody's name on them?

SPEAKER_06

No, they're blank, but they but they are invitations for a plus one. So it's like it seems that both of these people were invited, but the invitations allow for a plus one, they just don't need them.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, so we could all so so Zin could be your plus one, and then Elyria could be my plus one, and then Starzan is the entertainment.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. Yeah, that's I think that's reasonable.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. What do you say, Elyria can't be a good one?

SPEAKER_04

Like invite as an entertainer.

SPEAKER_07

I mean, uh oh my god. Sure.

SPEAKER_03

Oh yeah, yeah. Oh yeah, Elyria, do you want to be my date? Sure. We are both very accurate in our accents.

SPEAKER_00

Pack the cat and have it, yad.

SPEAKER_03

I do like that I could just talk in a normal voice, but no, I'm not going to.

SPEAKER_04

We've chosen to do characters.

SPEAKER_03

I've chosen I have chosen.

SPEAKER_04

Am I supposed to talk like Chris now?

SPEAKER_03

Only if you want to.

SPEAKER_00

Uh just for fun, why not? Hey.

SPEAKER_03

Oh my god, Starzan, you're even using pronouns and everything. You're really in cancer.

SPEAKER_04

Shall I win again? Starzan, I feel I can't help but feel as though you're making fun of me. Is that true? Why would Tarzan do that? Oh, that's I mean, no, it's honestly that's fair. Why would Tarzan do that? Why would Tarzan do that? Why would Star Trek? Starzan's name is Tarzan.

SPEAKER_00

Not Tarzan.

SPEAKER_04

I'm not Starzan.

SPEAKER_03

I think it sounded like a little too Diego Luna, not really French.

SPEAKER_04

Diego Luna. Diego Luna. Anyways, we uh uh uh tit we take their tickets, plus one, plus one entertainment. Starzan's just Starzan. He doesn't.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, Starzan is a gift to the the bride and group. Star Starzan is a game. The gift to the party.

SPEAKER_04

Starzan is good for my heart.

SPEAKER_03

Torcules is a gift to everyone. Okay, let's try to get in. I'm sure that Chris could bluff Starzan in.

SPEAKER_06

So as you uh wander through the spaceport, you can see that there are a couple of uh valet speeders nearby that bear the same uh Eric family crest as the invitations do.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, are they shuttling people to the party?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Let's approach, so show them our tickets.

SPEAKER_06

And they take them and they say, uh, excuse me, these are only for four. Uh I see there are five of you.

SPEAKER_04

Oh yes, I'm so uh I'm sorry. The uh uh we are uh we are babysitting for our uh for our friends, and we can't uh uh le uh leave my ne uh my nephew uh alone at this point. What?

SPEAKER_03

Your nephew Oh this is uh Twercules, you heard of him? He's uh entertainment for the party. Yeah, you heard of the twerkles.

SPEAKER_06

Uh see if he has. Give me a uh two purple and a black charm.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, Chris take that. Two purple and a black. So I can take away that black. Uh and then I can add two whites. I can add one blue because of my uh because of my clothes, one blue or two blues because of my cape. Another blue because of Zen?

SPEAKER_06

Dealing with the valets, yeah, probably. It's all part of the same sort of high society thing.

SPEAKER_01

Sure.

SPEAKER_04

Uh, and then U U, U U, I swear to god, if I somehow fail this. Uh three success, four advantages, and one light side, one dark side. Now we'll use that light side for another advantage.

SPEAKER_06

Uh because you have to use the destiny point to use light sides. Oh fuck.

SPEAKER_04

Um, how many destiny points do we have?

SPEAKER_06

You have three, but you already succeeded really hard. I'm good. I'm good. Twercules, yes, of course, twercules, the famous stripper slash glad gladiator.

SPEAKER_04

This prop sword that will have a stripper in it. Sure. Well, for the parties.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. No, it's like you slam the sword into the ground and then you spit around it like a pole.

SPEAKER_04

Starzan jump Starzan. Turcules jumps out of big cake. Here is Big Cake with nothing else suspicious inside of it. Happy Mr. President.

SPEAKER_06

Do you do you want to use the destiny point to have uh ahead of time baked your sword into a lar long phallic cake? For the staghead party. Nothing wrong with baking a lightsaber.

SPEAKER_03

I'm sure it's fine.

SPEAKER_06

It's fine. Well, you just bake the cake like with uh cutout in it.

SPEAKER_03

You bake the cake, you dig out a trench for the sword, and then you ice over the top of it.

SPEAKER_04

So you're cream, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Your sword's gonna be real messy when you dig it out, but that's not unusual.

SPEAKER_04

It's usually messy with blood. Well, I guess there's no blood if you cut out here.

SPEAKER_03

You just have to hope that like the the the bride does not try to be kooky and slam her face down in the cake before eating it.

SPEAKER_04

There is a disturbing trend where uh grooms would smash a cake into their bride's face as a joke. Like, aha, isn't this funny?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I've seen that. I don't like it.

SPEAKER_04

No. Together. How to get a divorce before your honeymoon.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, so Star Sands lightsabers in the cake or his swords in the cake. We're bringing a dick cake.

SPEAKER_06

Now we know that we're bringing a dick cake.

SPEAKER_03

Now we know that we're bringing a dick cake.

SPEAKER_06

Is that to scale? Haha, just kidding. Anyway, I'll take you up.

SPEAKER_03

Does he kind of give a look just like, haha, just kidding. Unless?

SPEAKER_06

Unless.

SPEAKER_04

Is that four foot dick cake to scale? Is that more dick? Four.

SPEAKER_06

Like it's a big sword. You can uh get into the valet speeder, putting the cake in the trunk. And they take you up to the Eric Villa, a palatial estate up uh on one of the mountains on the island with a gorgeous view overlooking the bay and the ocean. And you can see that it is uh like they take a valet up there. It appears that they have like a lot of guest quarters. This is a place that seems like they do do a fair amount of entertaining. It seems to have enough to accommodate the guests of both families. So this is like a compound. Like Michael Buble would live here. I don't know why he needs a compound. I uh don't ask questions. That's the rule around here. Don't ask Michael Bublet why he needs a compound. Is that a is that a question that people ask? You don't don't ask that. Okay, okay. What does Michael Buble need with a starship? Kids have disappeared for less. I know.

SPEAKER_03

So, anyways, we're going to Michael Bublet's compound.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, uh, it is it is palatial, and as you land, the valets uh let you out, and you notice a couple of security droids uh stamped with the Hollowan crest uh approach and they say tickets please present our tickets. They scan the tickets.

SPEAKER_04

Who is he? Uh oh. Uh Z is uh Tw uh Zet is Twirky Lease. He is uh Twitter Z Entertainment.

SPEAKER_03

For the staghet. The Stagette Party. For the Stagget Party.

SPEAKER_04

For the Stagette Party, he is part of the uh in.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Do we need to talk to your manager? Where's your manager? Please hold. Oh right, my voice. Manager. I got it.

SPEAKER_04

Where is the manager?

SPEAKER_06

And the security droids stand by, and another droid comes out. This is an IG100 Magna Guard, again stamped with the logo of Hollow On Laboratories. And it approaches, and this one seems to have been programmed to be slightly more personable than the basic uh security droids. Uh, but it's still a little brusque, and it says.

SPEAKER_02

My subordinates have informed me that you have an extra guest.

SPEAKER_04

Uh, yes, this is Torcules. He is the the the entertainment for the females.

SPEAKER_02

He is not on the guest store gift registry.

SPEAKER_03

Well, he's a person. You d did you want us to put a person on the gift registry?

SPEAKER_04

Torcules is the gift. I mean, have you seen his guns?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

All arrivals must pass inspection. Do you submit to examination?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I mean, you're not hiding anything up your ass, right, right, Torcules? Just these syringe dores.

SPEAKER_03

Does Torcules have like a big comically oversized bow just above his butt? Like he does now stay.

SPEAKER_06

So, uh, Torcules. Um, what would be, let's see. Cause he's gonna scan you, he's probably gonna run your face past like various criminal databases.

SPEAKER_04

Ah, but much like Juggalos. Yeah, you got that sensor back on makeup. Constantly changing makeup. He doesn't usually wear the same face paint twice. It's not like a signature face paint.

SPEAKER_06

It's always like a black. You do have the disguise kit, so you may have altered your feature slightly. That'll add another black. Um yeah. So this would probably be against your skullduggery to change your appearance. Okay. So what's your skullduggery? Skullduggery is three green. Okay.

SPEAKER_04

Starzana is more cunning than you'd think, but not good.

SPEAKER_06

Oh! Two success on its perception rule to identify you, and three threats.

SPEAKER_03

Maybe it just identifies you as Torcules. You're no alias.

SPEAKER_02

Database registry found you are Torcules, pulling up file footage. This was an excellent match.

SPEAKER_06

And you and you can see he pulls out this little like hollow device and it plays footage of your fight against the Star Weird.

SPEAKER_08

Turcules is a conqueror in the arena and the bedroom. Woohoo!

SPEAKER_02

The party will no doubt find you to be most amusing.

SPEAKER_03

Yes.

SPEAKER_02

Be on your way. Do not cause trouble.

SPEAKER_06

Trouble is not even in our name. So the guard droids uh let you enter, but probably don't want to get on your on their bad side. You see that they do have some security droids, but also if they've got Magna Guards stalking around, that might be a little bit of trouble as well. You can take your cake. Uh where are you taking your cake?

SPEAKER_04

I don't know. Is there a place to put like a dessert section? Maybe I maybe should keep it away from there, actually, so no one just kind of plugs into it. Maybe I'll be like Is there a certain like private section for performers? Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

You can take it to the kitchen, maybe. Uh they did on the invitation, there is like room numbers. Uh it is the same room number for both of you, because originally you were just going to be a single couple, but if you want to put it in like your your your private quarters. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Stash it.

SPEAKER_06

And you find uh an itinerary being automatically downloaded to your data pads, much like an unwanted U2 album.

SPEAKER_04

Song of Innocence. What is this shirtless man doing on my doing on my phone?

SPEAKER_03

We're in the mansion. We've taken the cake to our our aside room.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, it's large. This it's not so much a room as it is like a suite.

SPEAKER_03

Ooh, wow. We're living large.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. You can see uh there is a view out onto the pool, which uh has a view out onto the bay, which has a view out into the sea.

SPEAKER_03

Wow.

SPEAKER_06

See, there are people who uh have begun uh enjoying the pool. They're swimming around, relaxing, lounging, chit-chatting about whatever it is rich people talk about.

SPEAKER_03

Rich people stuff.

SPEAKER_04

Uh yes, the bare sterns, yes. Supergirl, the box office. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

I've replaced all my workers with droids, and then I hired a droid to look after the other droids.

SPEAKER_03

No, I don't see why uh why people need to now my factory. Okay, do we want to uh do we want to try to to hobnob or just get right into snooping about?

SPEAKER_04

Let's snoop. Let's uh let's see, let's get our bearings.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, let's go for go for a little snoop around, see if we can get an idea of where uh loam's quarters may be.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so that would probably be a uh do you want to so this would probably either be perception or stealth or cool. Let's see.

SPEAKER_07

I'll do perse- Mine is the same for every single one. Because it depends what you want to do.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Because perception will draw attention. I'm gonna be cool. I'm gonna be cool and draw some attention here. But probably stealthy. Or charm. Yeah, probably charm.

SPEAKER_06

Perception would be like if you want to actively look, but you might get caught. Cool would be if you want to just sort of seem like you belong there and maybe passively find stuff. Um and that's stealth would be if you want to if. If you want to actively stay hidden, maybe see how deep in into the uh palace you can get, like it's a Scientology building. Uh yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Could I choose like a charm to attract attention to be like, haha, look at me and not the people sneaking around. Start your performance. Performing, yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_06

And what what would I roll for for charms to get out of here? Get out the baby oil. So if you want to work together, um either uh you could combine your rolls, use one person's uh presence and one person's charm, or one of you could roll and the other could provide assistance with blue. Um, I'm pretty I'm pretty charming.

SPEAKER_04

Like I I I feel like I should charge. Oh, are you gonna be the carnival barker to hit me my operation? Stephen. That's legitimately what I was just thinking. Hell yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_06

Alright, what what's the uh pool? Uh so that's gonna be you're gonna have to attract these wealthy nobles. That would be against their cool, so that would be against a red and two purples.

SPEAKER_04

Two success and one advantage and four dark side, so ladies and gentlemen! Well I'm I've I'm committed now. Ladies and gentlemen.

SPEAKER_06

Gaza round, gaz around, everybody. She starts like clapping her hands. Where where are you guys doing this? Uh are you going like down to the pool?

SPEAKER_06

Well he was helping you out, so. This is this is to cover the people who were sneaking around. Uh yes.

SPEAKER_03

Which I guess that would be me and Elyria there. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Gotta have some hot stuff. Gotta have some love now. Look at him as his muscles glisten. Look at him as his muscles dance. Look at him as he does a topspin on his head, and you could see under his pants. So I'm doing a topspin on my head? Yes. Am I ray gun now?

SPEAKER_03

You think you could do a topspin?

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_03

Okay, so while that's happening, can Elyria and I go sneaking about in the compound? And would that be to be us should we be rolling stealth to avoid being caught or just perception to keep an eye out?

SPEAKER_06

Well, uh, Chris and Starzander drawing attention, so you could probably just do perception.

SPEAKER_03

Okay. What would that be for perception?

SPEAKER_06

So you're just trying to locate uh the Moffus?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, let's find the Moffus to see if we can find his uh his Moff pewter.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so it's probably not gonna be too hard, but a lot of the doors are closed. You wouldn't necessarily know just by looking at it. So that would probably be a two purple and probably one black perception. I can move a black.

SPEAKER_07

One success, two threat.

SPEAKER_06

SPEAKER_03

We don't have one of those, I don't think.

SPEAKER_06

No, but he does.

SPEAKER_03

But he does if we uh if we want well, if we want to pickpocket it off of him, that would also be skullduggery. You gotta find him again. Go pick his pocket. Maybe he'll go down and get distracted by the twerklee show, it'll be real easy to rob him.

SPEAKER_04

You gotta work that ass a little bit more there, twerklees.

SPEAKER_07

SPEAKER_06

Uh yeah, you can find Loam. He's beginning to mingle with the various guests until a butler droid comes and takes his attent and he heads off following the droid to do some kind of uh wedding thing.

SPEAKER_03

I sneak behind him and just uh my hand in his pocket.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so this will be a skullduggery then. Uh it'll start as two reds and a purple. Since there is a droid that is following him, uh, and kind of telling him where he needs to go for for what he needs to do for the wedding, and you are sort of more out in the open now. That is also gonna add two blacks.

SPEAKER_03

Two blacks.

SPEAKER_06

And he is in uniform, so uh do you know where Imperials wear their code cylinders? It's not on the dick, is it?

SPEAKER_07

Up their butts.

SPEAKER_06

Around the corner. No, stick it up your butt. It's kind of uh on the front of their uniforms by their armpits. So gonna give you a destiny point to upgrade the upgrade the difficulty again because it's like on his front that you need to slip it out of. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Oof.

SPEAKER_03

I could flip another destiny point and get a yellow, get another yellow. That gives me two yellow, two green. Is this a bad idea? Yes. Oh, that was a really bad idea.

SPEAKER_04

Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Got three advantages out of despair.

SPEAKER_04

Woo! Can't can't you get rid of a despair and make it two threats? That's for a deception.

SPEAKER_06

Oh, never mind. You feel this metal hand clamping on your wrist, and you can look and see an IG-100 Magna Guard saying, Hands off the moth.

SPEAKER_05

And then he turns around and he says, Oh, oh, it's you. Did you enjoy the toilet? Oh, look, unhand her, unhand her. She is a guest here. This is a good advantage to have. This event. And she's no trouble, no trouble at all. Look at her. She's a stick thin. She couldn't harm a fly.

SPEAKER_03

I I couldn't. I could not. I I just bought it to thank you for your hospitality. The bathroom was so great.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, it's no matter, no matter. It's those uh danged old new fangled Hollywood toilets. They insisted on gifting us, but I don't uh I don't know if I really like them.

SPEAKER_04

I prefer the little too invasive, right? Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

They collect all of my information. I don't know what they're doing with a database of stools. Uh uh, it just doesn't make any sense to me. I don't want that information floating around out there.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, it's a it's a little weird to have the toilet talk to you.

SPEAKER_05

Yes, yes, it's it's strange. Back in my day, the only thing the only conversations that happened in there were between two men on either side of a hole cut in the wall.

SPEAKER_04

As That's what that hole cut in the wall is for. Hercules thought it was for sushi. Where are you going?

I haven't had uh uh I hope I don't seem too presumptuous, but uh yeah, lovely lady hasn't uh said much to me since my wife passed away in an act of corporate espionage.

SPEAKER_03

Wow, that sounds like it must have been really it's probably been lonely for you.

SPEAKER_05

That's why I accepted all the help from the Hollow ones, these droids around here, you see. I don't want anybody getting into my secrets and uh using them.

SPEAKER_03

That would be bad.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, we'll You wouldn't believe the security things that I've had to had installed in my office. Uh oh, if somebody were to go in there, they'd find themselves with a nasty surprise, I'll tell you. Well, it's a good thing I keep my code cylinders with me, or else I might get blown to hell if I step in in the wrong place.

SPEAKER_03

Wow, that sounds like it's really good to know about. Uh, but why don't yeah, why don't we meet at the bar later and we'll talk more? Yes, of course. I think I'd I think I'd like that. Me too. Tootolooo!

SPEAKER_04

He tootles off. This d this dude rules. I want him on our side. Join our crew. Don't you want to be part of a rebellion? Doesn't that sound cooler than anything that you can do? Would you like to wreck some empires, sir, instead of toilets?

SPEAKER_03

Would you like to see our base glory hole? Where are you going?

SPEAKER_06

Where are you going? Come back. Hear us out. It used to be an airport.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_03

Just in case I need full mobility. Why don't you meet me at the glory hall, dude? Well shoot, I don't know. I I cause I guess we await till after the wedding ceremony when Twercules has to go be the entertainment for the party.

SPEAKER_04

Well would like during the wedding ceremony be the perfect time to snoop around. Honestly, probably during the wedding ceremony because everybody else should be should be distracted. I mean, other than guards, but we get by those.

SPEAKER_06

The day prior to the bachelor and bachelorette parties. So that's it.

SPEAKER_03

So the wedding ceremony would not be for like a little while. At least like a couple of days, probably.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, okay. It's probably better well, let's see if we can work sooner rather than later, maybe. Maybe we don't even need to show up for the wedding. Right. We're gonna have to sit through that shit.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Well, because he he said he would meet me at the bar later. If the wedding ceremony's not for a few days, maybe it's like in a few hours. Meet him at the bar and try to get his stuff, and then after everyone's asleep.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, it seems like one of those weeklong weddings that's like when is this over? Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, because like i is there is there a way to like duplicate a code cylinder?

SPEAKER_06

Probably not that they're designed to be like specific keys for specific people. But like, I don't think you would have the tools anyway.

SPEAKER_03

Cause like, okay, what if we wait till this guy they get this guy alone later? I'll try to pickpocket the code cylinder off his tits and slip it to one of you guys. I'll just keep him talking while one of you uh like slips away to his office and uses the code cylinder to bust in. Or, being more charming, Chris slips in ahead of me and is like, Why do you want to talk to that dusty, uh dusty old human when you can talk to me? And we can find out where on the Kinsey scale this guy lies.

SPEAKER_04

I do, uh uh Chr uh Chrissant does uh go through the entire spectrum.

SPEAKER_03

Chris does go through the entire spectrum, or we both go there and it's like you to charm and me to pickpocket, and it's like you could have both of us old man.

SPEAKER_04

Uh uh Chrissant abides by the Harkness rules?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Where any species is game as long as they're of age to consent and uh have the brain power to consent.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, Chris, you use your pheromodes. What do you say, Chris? Do you want tank team this old man?

SPEAKER_04

Let's tank team this old man. Fucking uh I'll take the high road, you take the low. With your mighty in juice.

SPEAKER_03

What do we think? Okay, can Chris and I wait by the bar until he comes and joins us?

SPEAKER_06

You can uh wait by the bar. Wanna use perception to keep an eye out for him?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

That'd probably be a uh maybe a two purple and a black.

SPEAKER_03

For what's the rule for that? Perception. Perception. Two purple and a black.

SPEAKER_07

One success, three threats.

SPEAKER_03

Four success.

SPEAKER_04

Three success, two threats, and a triumph.

SPEAKER_03

Ooh.

SPEAKER_04

One triumph, one advantage, but no success. Okay. Nice.

SPEAKER_06

So Chris Illyria Cala, you can all see uh the moth when he returns. Uh Chris and Illyria. Uh, because you got threat, you can see that he's changed into more casual attire, and he does not have his code cylinders with him.

SPEAKER_03

Ah, dang.

SPEAKER_06

Oh, but Starzan, uh, you don't see uh him coming. Starzan and Chris, you both got a triumph. So you can see uh he was talking about like uh potentially other people that were gonna be snooping around. And you can see that there is a middle-aged woman about his age, uh, that has kind of she's sort of been like lurking a little bit around the bar. Um, she seems like, as people who are sneaking around trying not to seem like they're sneaking around, she's behaving like you.

SPEAKER_04

Pretty suspicious if she's acting like us.

SPEAKER_06

She looks like uh she looks like a Kwadi noblewoman. And Starzan, um, because you also got an advantage, there is also kind of down at the far end of the bar, uh there is a woman that's kind of like glancing at you periodically. She doesn't seem like uh she's a noblewoman or somebody who's like doing corporate espionage, but maybe maybe she just likes you. Ooh, a seed thief.

SPEAKER_03

Maybe she's just a fan of Torcules.

SPEAKER_04

Maybe she's just a fan of Torcules. Does she have any dollar bills?

SPEAKER_03

She's shyly fluttering it at you. Over here.

SPEAKER_06

Well, the bar is free, so uh you don't know what kind of currency she's carrying, but based on what she's wearing, she's got she's wearing like a form-fitting, sleeveless, high-collared, and at certain angles you can tell backless uh black and red dress. Ooh. But she is kind of baggy else. Yeah, if if if you know you glance her way, if you share her glances, she does send a drink your way. Ooh. Is it uh poisoned perhaps? Uh do you want to detect if it's poisoned? Sure. Uh that would probably be a perception. Okay. Or maybe medicine. Uh let's do perception. Medicine is not great for Starzan. This came from the bar. She didn't touch it, she just ordered it from the bar. So it'll be a one purple perception to see if it's poisoned. Okay. Two advantages. You can't tell if it's poisoned, but considering she had nothing to do with it, it's probably not poisoned.

SPEAKER_04

Even though, uh, Starzan will pour on his chest seductively. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

You're not drinking, just dumping it on yourself.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, she kind of she kind of like raises her glass in a toast and she nods at you before taking a sip of her own. There you go.

SPEAKER_03

And then you just dump it on yourself.

SPEAKER_00

Starzana is hot.

SPEAKER_03

Ooh. Yeah, you you pour it on yourself, it just steams and sizzles because you're so hot.

SPEAKER_06

Perfect. So you pour the drink on your chest, she kind of like toasts you, uh, and then she comes over. And she says, Hello, I couldn't help but noticing across the bar you pouring your drink all over your chest for me. Hercules enjoys the dampness. Oh my. Well, I don't mind uh making a man wet. I'm Trilla. Honored to meet you, Torcules. Does that ring any bells to me?

SPEAKER_04

Or should it? Trilla. Yeah. Trilla the thriller. Trilla the thriller.

SPEAKER_06

Who am I? Perhaps. We'll see. What brings a specimen like you to a wedding like this?

SPEAKER_08

Turcules is entertainment.

SPEAKER_06

Entertainment? Disflexes, does the gun show. Very amusing. Most muscular to the traps. Did the entertainment bring a plus one to this venue? Um, the Turcules left cat at home.

SPEAKER_03

Ah, no pussy.

SPEAKER_06

No bitches! Strong and nurturing. That's uh quite an attractive combo.

SPEAKER_04

Here you go. Ladies love cat dads.

SPEAKER_03

Ladies love cat dads.

SPEAKER_04

L cool uh uh C D L C D L C D. It is funny having this person flirt with the most asexual character in the game.

SPEAKER_03

You c okay, you're saying the most asexual character in the game with Illyria is right there.

SPEAKER_06

I was gonna say. What does Torcules do when he's not twerking?

SPEAKER_08

Uh fight in the battle pits!

SPEAKER_06

Oh, you don't say you are a uh a warrior as well. A conqueror. Have you ever spent any time in the Tapani sector? Does that sound familiar? Uh give me a knowledge core world, probably a two purple and a black.

SPEAKER_08

One failure.

SPEAKER_06

This does not sound familiar to Torques. Uh well you should. Uh they have a uh I think it's a fad, but they uh have quite a robust dueling culture out there. They use uh light foils, uh imitations of the old Jedi's laser swords to uh to combat one another for honor and well, whatever the reasons they happen to come up with. I've I've become fairly practiced at it myself.

SPEAKER_03

A sexy duel?

SPEAKER_06

A sexy duel? But if you have not uh practiced with the blade, that is neither here nor there. It's a shame. I like a man who knows how to handle his sword. Gang, what do?

SPEAKER_03

I don't know, Starzan, she's talking to you. What do you what do you think you do?

SPEAKER_04

Fight her well. Starzan is trying to maintain the important bond of uh not spreading a seed for uh to avoid a civil war.

SPEAKER_03

Is Starzan uh socially savvy enough to recognize that that's what she's getting at, or are you just like, I will hit you with a sword?

SPEAKER_04

I think I think Starzan is generally suspicious of seed stealers.

SPEAKER_03

You see seed stealers on every corner.

SPEAKER_04

He was raised to keep the seed strong.

SPEAKER_03

Man, that's a weird thing to be raised to do. Son, never use it.

SPEAKER_04

You don't want to start a civil war. If your offspring will usurp you.

SPEAKER_03

Hello, my ten-year-old son. Let me tell you about semen retention.

SPEAKER_04

That's the whole point of the King Arthur myth. He banged one witch and then she birthed the son that killed him.

SPEAKER_03

Never bang a witch.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Never bang a ship. That's the whole point of the King Arthur myth. Don't trust a hoe. Never trust a witch.

SPEAKER_06

Every Starzan inevitably dies by getting stabbed through their gut and then pulling the s themselves through the sword.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I don't know, Starze, what you want to do.

SPEAKER_04

Can we pump her for information?

SPEAKER_03

Are you are you gonna?

SPEAKER_04

Greg. Well done. I mean, what what kind of information should we get?

SPEAKER_03

Well is she.

SPEAKER_06

Yes. Is this a Selena Kyle and Bruce Wayne situation? So what is your uh perception against her then, Starzan? What's your perception?

SPEAKER_04

Uh I believe it's two greens and a yellow, and I can take a black off. Um two I can take two blacks off. Two greens and a yellow.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so that'd be Starzan is nobody's fool, but he does not have that ability. Um, okay, so I had her roll against you just to see if she's hiding anything, if she's being cool at all. Because probably uh, you know, this is a random woman that is talking to you for an extended period of time. She's probably just not a uh a time waster here. But you get the sense that like she does definitely seem to be very competent. She definitely seems to be a woman who has a high degree of control of what she's doing and why. Uh she's she seems to be somebody who does not frivolously take action. So regardless of like why she is, like there is her intent may simply be as basic as it seems, uh, but it is there is a s you sense a certain amount of sort of uh calculation behind everything she's doing.

SPEAKER_08

What's her name again?

SPEAKER_06

Trilla. What bring Trilla to wedding? Oh, I'm an envoy of such and such and so and so sent to just uh make sure that uh, you know, uh my employer's presence is felt at this gathering. But I'm not here to discuss business, I'm here to get drunk.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, dog.

SPEAKER_06

Starzan will buy her a drink. Uh what do you buy her?

SPEAKER_04

I don't know, a Pongfar? Um what's what's the seat? What did she get me? Uh she got you something that smells expensive. We'll get both of those and then I'll pour it on my chest.

SPEAKER_03

Maybe Cheryl pour hers on her chest too. Yeah, yeah, they're learning.

unknown

Learning that.

SPEAKER_06

When in her own, right? She she does uh she takes the drink and she she pours it on her chest as well. Perfect learning. Is this something they do a lot where you are from, Twercules?

SPEAKER_08

Hercules not remember much of where Twercules from.

SPEAKER_04

Looks all sad. Oh, you're all mysterious. Doing the Don Draper form of seduction.

SPEAKER_06

Oh, have you been- Buying drinks, being a drunk mess. And she like puts a concerned like hand on your hand and she's Twercules, have you been trafficked?

SPEAKER_08

Oh no. Uh-oh. Twercules not know what that means.

SPEAKER_06

Oh no. Are you do you want to be twercules or are you being twercules against your will?

SPEAKER_03

Oh, do you don't know Twercules lost passport?

SPEAKER_08

Twercules come from home planet, where Twercules important person, and then twercules taken from home, and responsibilities forced into learning weird religion.

SPEAKER_05

Uh-oh.

SPEAKER_08

Uh-oh.

SPEAKER_05

Uh oh.

SPEAKER_08

Twercules raised with responsibility. Twercules never know what never been asked what twercules want. What does twercules want?

SPEAKER_03

Oh, twercules!

SPEAKER_04

I'm not I I I can't I can't show up and be like, oh, look at the time at the bar with him.

SPEAKER_06

That was the whole thing. You're all waiting for this moth to come back.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, Twercules, he's saying the funniest things.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, twerk Hercules, now's not the time for some uh Oh now's not the time for uh uh uh crisis of self here.

SPEAKER_07

Torcules clearly absorbed the alcohol through his chest. That's why he's talking like this.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, you know, I I hear that, you know, if you uh if you're doing drugs, if you rub it on your nipples, you soak it up faster. Faster. You soak it up faster.

SPEAKER_06

Faster. It's like boofing. So are you guys interjecting then?

SPEAKER_04

Twercules chest boofing.

SPEAKER_06

Are you are you interjecting to save Twercules from a life of independence so he doesn't uh do anything without your express approval and consent?

SPEAKER_04

Uh I I I feel like this person is wanting to take advantage of our friend Twer uh Twercules here, so well I'll though probably not, I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

Look, we can't have this person trying to intervene to free Twercules.

SPEAKER_06

At this point, no. Well, she she sees you gathering around Twercules and forming a uh a robust uh cage, I guess. And she says, Well, uh, if you decide that you do know what you want, here's my room number. I'm going to retire. I have some alcohol on my chest that I need to get cleaned up. I should slip out of this dress. She slinks off back to her room.

SPEAKER_04

Like a snake. See that? She's she's kind of a snake. Snake. She's a snake.

SPEAKER_07

My character voice is Microsoft Sam.

SPEAKER_03

Oh my god. Okay, so God, what's even happening?

SPEAKER_06

Uh, well, the moth is the moth is back, and there is also a uh looks like another Kwadi Noble woman that is lurking around, potentially trying to overhear secrets. And then there is this lady who just kinda had a thing with uh Torcules.

SPEAKER_03

Because if I'm talking to the moth, like, Chris, do you want to go talk to the Kwadi Noble lady?

SPEAKER_04

Uh yeah, sure. I couldn't talk to the what uh remind me again, what are we go uh what are we after here?

SPEAKER_03

We're trying to figure out a way to break into his office, because I was originally like, I'll try to steal his code cylinder, but now he's he's back without his coat, so he doesn't have his code cylinder.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. And she and she might be able to get into his room?

SPEAKER_03

Well, I don't know. She's lurking around like she's looking for secrets, so she might be uh amenable to helping us bust in if she's also looking for something.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, I am going to bust this girl. Yeah, bust this lady. Bust this lady. Bust this woman.

SPEAKER_06

You can approach her. She's uh middle-aged, uh, noblewoman. She's dressed somewhat uh flamboyantly for somebody who is uh trying to remain unnoticed. But uh maybe that's part of the plan, hiding in plain sight.

SPEAKER_04

Um bonjour. Hello, uh Danish. And uh uh I see that you're uh I see that you are looking for something, and I was hoping that I could be somebody something that you're looking for. Ooh.

SPEAKER_06

And she looks you up and down and she says, Oh, you think so? I think I need something with a little more meat on its bones.

SPEAKER_04

Is this the same lady who just talked to Dracules?

SPEAKER_03

No, no, this is a different person. So, uh Is this person also doing a weird accent to try to hide her identity?

SPEAKER_04

Seems like she is.

SPEAKER_03

Everyone's just doing bad accents.

SPEAKER_04

Uh.

SPEAKER_03

Worse than usual.

SPEAKER_04

I I I that's the uh the wedding invitation said, in lieu of presents, bring bad accents.

SPEAKER_03

Bring silly bit.

SPEAKER_04

Do you mean uh do you mean somebody like Trucules over Zach?

SPEAKER_06

Oh no, I mean somebody with a little more uh more mileage on his tires, if you don't mind me saying so, sir. Oh, like older? Yeah. Yes, get out of the way. Here he comes, here he comes. And she you can see that she's like got her eyes locked on the moth.

SPEAKER_01

Oh.

SPEAKER_04

Oh. Oh Matchmaker Old Edition.

SPEAKER_03

Is she also uh she she's of similar age?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. So it's not weird.

SPEAKER_03

It's not weird.

SPEAKER_04

Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. A rich old guy dating somebody his own age out of Impossible. Impossible.

SPEAKER_03

It's true. That doesn't sound correct.

SPEAKER_04

Can I can I kinda like follow them just to see uh or well like I'm wondering what's the what's the next path from here?

SPEAKER_03

Maybe you'd ask her why she's interested in the moth. Uh interest.

SPEAKER_04

Uh, what's uh uh why are you uh why are you so interested in in the moth? I feel like the moth has uh explored hit uh explored his life to the fullest already. Uh give me a charm. Okay. Uh I'm not around Sin uh uh Zin right now, so or am I?

SPEAKER_06

I mean, she's with you. She's uh being Tweelucky at the bar, uh getting hit on by Alan Sundry. Of course. Is that a different Star Wars character we haven't met yet? Yeah. It's Alan Sundry. Played by Alan Thick. Sorry to keep you waiting. Uh what's the dice pool? That's gonna be against so she's a middle-aged uh noble Kwadi noble woman. She is uh probably an executive of at least three or four companies. Uh so she's pretty used to uh people trying to charm her. So this'll be against three reds and two purples. Jesus.

SPEAKER_03

But if she used a croissant trying to charm her.

SPEAKER_04

Um how many destiny points do we got? You got three. I'm not gonna flip I'm not gonna flip one now because I may need one later for the Zin is also whispering in in the calm link. So we've got her help. So yeah, I got I got I got a lot of stuff. I got a lot of stuff here. I'm just afraid of a despair. Um, more than anything.

SPEAKER_06

You have you have three destiny.

SPEAKER_04

That's fair. Okay. Oh yeah. Yeah, we're f we're we're fucking good. Uh two success, five advantages, one triumph, one light side, and one dark side.

SPEAKER_04

Uh uh Do I I look I look over in Zen's general direction like, do I look like a stooge? Never mind, don't talk about it.

SPEAKER_06

It's that bowl cut wig you were wearing. Oh fuck, of course. So she kind of like pulls you down to sit at the table next to her. Uh and she drops the weird fake accent and she says, My name is Jestra Andrin. Jestra Andrew of the new audience.

SPEAKER_03

Was this one of the families that he was ranting about? Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

And I know a thing or two about a thing or two about you falling. How you uh enjoy suntanning in the black sun, as it were. Uh, and uh I don't care I don't care what criminal ties you have, but would you be interested in making a little bit of money? And by a little bit, I mean six figures.

SPEAKER_04

I uh um can I what what do I need to roll to not come in my pants?

SPEAKER_03

Come on, Chris. I should hope you're more practiced than that. Okay.

SPEAKER_04

I'm I'm good, I'm good, I'm good. Um I feel like I feel like that's not that that seems reasonable. Yes, of course. Well when you say six figures, you don't like mean like, you know, one exactly one hundred you know what? We don't worry about that.

SPEAKER_03

I gotta pay you in six uh human beings.

SPEAKER_04

There's all four uh there's all four ninja turtles, uh Shredder and April O'Neal. The rare April O'Neal toy.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, that is worth a fortune.

SPEAKER_04

Which is worth six figures. It's both meanings. That's great.

SPEAKER_06

No, I mean uh cash, hard cash.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, it's just untraceable cash. Credits. I stop. I can only be so hard. Let's uh let's uh what do you what do you need? What's uh what is it says you are looking for, and maybe you can help me too. Well you see that barrel chested oaf there at the bar. Uh I have uh is he is is she pointing at Starzan there? She's pointing at the moth. Yeah. Okay, yes. Uh I I have uh seen him before, yes.

SPEAKER_06

Well, you see there's a merger happening between his family and the Holoons. Now that could be a uh very dangerous proposition for my family, unless that old fool's wife died a number of years ago, and I think it's uh cooled long enough for me to enact step two to become the stepmother to his daughter.

SPEAKER_04

Love it. Got it. I'm fucking into it. If you if I have uh I can help you do the he's the guy that uh with the cylinders, right? Yeah. Okay. Uh tell you tell you what, do you help uh I will help you uh I will help you uh become a match uh I will be your matchmaker for uh you two to uh live happily ever after for as long as he has to live. Oh, I don't need happily ever after. I just need happily ever until the checks clear. Let me believe in love for a second, okay?

SPEAKER_03

Do you say that when you look loggingly back at Zid and just like, ha!

SPEAKER_04

No, yeah, I say I say I say that like let me believe in love just for a minute, okay? Just don't don't mention it. Um I will let you live as a happy relationship.

SPEAKER_06

Even if you believe you're exchanging love, that is simply one person gets a benefit, and so does the other. Some transactions are even, some aren't. Okay, mom.

SPEAKER_03

Is that something your mom used to say to you?

SPEAKER_04

God mom. Okay, mom. Uh uh, okay. I will help you uh complete a transaction with Zedman if you help me get some cylinders uh from here.

SPEAKER_06

I know you uh falling have uh potent pheromones. Uh do you have specific control over? Your particular scent?

SPEAKER_04

I think I do.

SPEAKER_06

Do I?

SPEAKER_03

I think it's like you can you can you can use your scent to attract like anyone regardless of species or gender.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I don't know how much you can really like manipulate the scent specifically, though.

SPEAKER_04

Can I direct it so that he falls in love with her?

SPEAKER_03

It seems like it's coming off of her. You stand right behind her and then pump out some pheromones.

SPEAKER_04

Do do do I do I find a treadmill and just like uh pack up a couple of bottles of my perfume and then your musk. Like like that, like that one uh kids in the hall sketch.

SPEAKER_06

Well, she kind of like puts uh one of her hands on the side of your neck and she says, sweat for me.

SPEAKER_01

Ugh.

SPEAKER_04

Um I I do all of a sudden get flush a little bit, and then I start I start uh leaking out my pores.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so I think uh generally like for a clotite transformation, stuff like that, anything that is manipulating your body that is sort of an internal organ or isn't like prawn or agility-based is usually like resilience. So it would probably be a resilience to control your output.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_06

Um probably a give you a destiny point here. We'll give you a cocktail. It'll be a red, a purple, and a black resilience. Red, purple, and black.

SPEAKER_04

I'm not great at resilience here. Uh red, purple. Zin's is is Zin's thing doesn't work with resilience, right? No. And neither does any of my clothing, right? No.

SPEAKER_03

Well, this is to pump out uh pheromones. If you look at Zin, could it could you kind of uh trick yourself into pumping more out? Like you know, if you have to like trick yourself into crying on Q so you think about your mom dying.

SPEAKER_04

Can I can I can I put her in my memory bank, my special place? Bank bank.

SPEAKER_03

Yes.

SPEAKER_04

I didn't want to be so crass, but we've already been very crass this episode. This has been a very crass episode. A very poor. This is a very crass show.

SPEAKER_03

It called literally has a packer for his for a lightsaber right now.

SPEAKER_06

Anything can happen at a wedding, cuz. Okay.

SPEAKER_04

Because I'm thinking about Z uh thinking about Zen a little bit here, can I add a blue? Uh, yeah. Okay. Uh motorboat and bastard. You motorboatin' son of a bitch. How many Destiny points do we have? We have three. I am gonna flip one this time. Uh where's that yellow? There you are. Fuck yeah. Two success, three threat, and one triumph.

SPEAKER_06

Oh yeah, you can mix up exactly the kind whatever kind of cocktail you want with that advantage and triumph. Now, this woman is clearly she's trying to uh get close to the moth so she can do whatever she wants uh to get into his good graces and become a part of this upcoming merger, get her family involved in it. It would be very useful if you had a Patsy during this particular espionage engagement. Patsy. So if you want to mix, I don't know what kind of mix you want, if you want it to fade after a while, if you want it to be uh Oh, like if you wanna leave your pheromones in the office so it seems like she stole them after we steal the code cylinder.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Uh oh, this poor woman. This poor one. What come on she she won't live happily ever after. Yeah, we could probably we could probably use a patsy here.

SPEAKER_03

All's fair and corporate espionage.

SPEAKER_04

I mean that I mean we're not here for the corporate uh uh corporate espionage part, but like also Yeah, it is a good idea to have a Patsy.

SPEAKER_06

What's that threat what that threat do, I wonder though. Well the threat is I mean you'll you have you don't do this too often, so you'll take some strain, it's not that bad, but no. Okay. But what is what is her play?

SPEAKER_04

It will be a time bomb, it'll be a time bomb pheromone where it starts off starts off beautiful and then it'll turn ugly kind of thing. Love to hate. Lovers to enemies pheromones.

SPEAKER_03

Enemies to lovers to enemies again.

SPEAKER_04

Yes. Alright, uh my my juice is f uh loose.

SPEAKER_06

So she she takes it and she dabs it on herself and she says, Thank you. And she pulls out of her purse uh a stack of uh credit chits in large denominations, and she slides it across and she says, Don't spend it all in one place. And how much is that again, sorry? 100,000.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I figured it'd be a hundred thousand. That's okay. I was like, oh, six figures, aka the bare minimum. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

How is this how is this gonna help us get those that those tubes?

SPEAKER_04

She's gonna get she's gonna bring she's gonna bring them for us.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_03

Okay. Maybe when she comes over to flirt, I'll uh I'll I'll really I'll I'll I'll I'll look I'll I'll make myself look like a buffoon, so it's like, oh yeah, of course you should go after this lady instead of. Yeah, the the mobile.

Hello, Loam. How how how was the day?

SPEAKER_05

Oh, you know, very uh very tiring, making all kinds of decisions, and I don't I'm not suited to this. Uh my wife was always the one who was uh good at designing and planning these sorts of things. I never had much of a head for it.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, sounds like you need a woman's touch around the place again.

SPEAKER_05

Oh maybe, but uh an old codger like me's not really uh attracting too much attention these days, especially with my busted leg and uh oh, you know, my my haunted past.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, haunted I love a haunted past. Tell me more about your haunted past.

SPEAKER_05

Well, I suppose it all started uh when I ran away to join the sector fleet.

SPEAKER_03

Does he like start to say this and then he trails off to go look at that uh enticing scent?

SPEAKER_06

Well, he he he doesn't trail off, he starts telling you his story, and then uh you get distracted and you see this gorgeous middle-aged woman sauntering up, and for some reason you find her irresistible.

SPEAKER_03

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_06

Roll me a uh uh Chris, what's your charm? My fucking My Charm.

SPEAKER_04

You make me a MILF Hunter, aren't you? Um you're not gonna you're gonna not uh you're not gonna like my charm. I'm not going to. Uh it is two yellow, two green, one blue, one takeaway a black, two whites.

SPEAKER_06

Uh we'll just do the the do it as uh two reds and two purples, and the moth will be rolling against us as well.

SPEAKER_03

Would that be discipline?

SPEAKER_06

Uh this would be cool.

SPEAKER_03

Cool. Oh no. Yo, one yellow, one green. You're cool, right?

SPEAKER_04

This jittery addict. It's very cool. So somebody's gonna need their drugs. Oh no, wait.

SPEAKER_03

One success, four threat. It takes everything I have to not start like who in a dollar in like a cartoon wolf.

SPEAKER_06

Uh so Moff Lone, he gets uh two success, two threats, and a triumph.

SPEAKER_04

Oh wow. He's been around the block a few times.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, so he's kind of locked in and he turns around. Uh he the the threat is that he does like notice her coming and he turns around and says, Excuse me.

SPEAKER_05

Well, if I didn't smell something stinky coming into this place, I'm sorry, I didn't mean that. You smell very nice, actually. Bitch, you wash. Uh Jestra, this is my uh my new friend.

SPEAKER_04

Fantastic.

SPEAKER_08

Oh my god. Phenomenal.

SPEAKER_05

Jestra, this is my new friend Daisy Joe. Since uh strange name from uh she comes from a strange land, I assume. Uh why don't you come have a drink with us? Uh normally I can't stand your fucking face, but uh Okay, I'm trying to be personable for the sake of uh making my daughter's wedding a good event for all.

SPEAKER_04

This voice is unlocked and making me think of Dave Jolly's boss character from Kids in the Hall. I can't stand your fucking face. It's fucking serving. Turned this man turned into Don Rickles all of a sudden.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, Cal is keeping it together, but like this lady sits down and it's like, you do smell really good.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, she does. It's uh quite a fetching uh fetching scent, I must say. Even though uh I know that you killed my wife. What?

SPEAKER_04

So you finally figured it out, did you?

SPEAKER_03

Oh! She admitted it!

SPEAKER_04

We're getting a we're getting a m uh wedding and fucking drama.

SPEAKER_03

We're like tuning in to like episode 10, season five of a soap opera. I was just like telenovella.

SPEAKER_04

Is John Oliver gonna pop up here soon? Because he's gonna be in a soap opera soon.

SPEAKER_05

If I'd known you felt that way about me, I would have just divorced her. Oh this isn't high school anymore, Jester. We don't have to go about these uh shenanigans and killing people's spouses and what have you. We can be honest. We've lived too long, lived our lives too long, witnessed too many things, lost too many adult boy men to the horrors of war before the wars? Adult boy men? Yeah, they fought in the clone wars.

SPEAKER_03

Oh. Oh yeah, it's like I love those clones.

SPEAKER_04

Especially those adult boymen. I thought he was talking about like fucking like pool boys or something. We've lost too many cabana boys.

SPEAKER_05

Terrible feud. He says, I uh I don't know, I don't know what I'm thinking or feeling right now. I'm very can I'm feeling very confused. Just uh just a second here.

SPEAKER_06

And he reaches into his pocket and he pulls out like a little blue dropper and he drops it into his eyes.

SPEAKER_05

He says, Alright, I think it's uh I think I'm uh it's okay. I'm becoming lucid again. I'm not getting lost in my dreams no more. Uh you're here, you're here, you're doing this for Claire. You're doing this for Claire, Lom. It's for Claire.

SPEAKER_03

What what is what is that thing that he just dropped in his eyes? Can I tell?

SPEAKER_06

Uh yeah, you know a lot about drugs, roll me a perception.

SPEAKER_03

Look how perception.

SPEAKER_06

Uh for you? Uh probably two purple.

SPEAKER_03

Two purple?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. Oh, five advantage, no success. Um, you don't know exactly what it is, uh, but based on how he's acting, it appears to be medication for severe PTSD.

SPEAKER_03

Oh lord.

SPEAKER_04

This makes a lot of sense. It's tracks.

SPEAKER_03

God, I just how maybe I should just be like, say, Loam, I'm tired. Why don't you tell me where your room is and I'll go meet you up there and then I'll see if I can rifle through his clutch coat solder.

SPEAKER_05

Young miss, uh, I uh I'm too old for a thing like you, uh, but uh maybe it's time to give old flames a second chance on the log. Is he talking about the toilet again? Just for I've been a fool. But if I'd known that you were gonna kill my wife over it, then uh why don't we go make up for lost time? Let's head back to my room. When we come back, the sun will be up.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, why do you cause you mentioned the code cylinders to her, and and you we always have our radios open. As they're walking away, could I kind of like look at her and just like use my fingers to make the shape of a cylinder?

SPEAKER_06

And she says back to you, Oh, don't worry, little girl. The cylinder will not be harmed.

SPEAKER_03

Don't put it in the mini MM's tube. The cylinder is pretty much too big for the mini MM's tube. Because, like, should we kind of uh sneak up to their room and lurk outside and see if she rolls out the cylinder to us after uh he passes out? Just stand outside the whole time. Well, how else do we know how she's gonna get it to us?

SPEAKER_06

Uh well, Chris Watch.

unknown

Sure.

SPEAKER_03

I need to know what happens. I need to I need to turn their closed door romance into an open-door romance. What's going on in there?

SPEAKER_08

Does he come or what?

SPEAKER_06

I will I will I will destiny point this. Okay. Uh so what was the uh the drop-off you arranged? Is she gonna get it like sent to your room? Is there gonna be a a secret sort of place where she's got somebody standing by to take it?

SPEAKER_04

Uh um, like honestly, if she if she takes him up to the room, uh, we can wait by the room uh or are there any guards by his room?

SPEAKER_06

His room? Like, if you look where they're going, uh they're heading into uh an area of the estate that seems to be more heavily patrolled by guard droids.

SPEAKER_04

You know what would be cool if we uh somehow if somehow she like throws the cylinders out, like I don't know how high how high is this building throws on top of the building.

SPEAKER_06

It's it's uh wide, but it's not tall. So the compound is like three floors.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, throw uh uh throw uh you know if I if I have a pillow down there, she lands the pill uh lands the cylinders in the pillow, I pick it, I pick it up and we mosey on.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so you just tell her to like when she finds, does the you know, Luke Skywalker toss it out the way? Pretty much. So you can go uh out and stand in the bushes underneath uh the room and you can hear muffled sounds uh coming from the window. Uh they're very quiet, barely audible. Uh, but after a certain point, a little silver cylinder does come flying out the window. Uh give me a coordination to catch it. Three purple.

SPEAKER_04

I will three purple coordination. Has your coordination? Um, it's it's fine, but if there's somebody who has great coordination, that'd be more ideal. Oh, that would be Starzan. Would it extend it? I only have two green, but I have three uh forest point. I guess yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I have a yellow, three green to coordination. You got it. Yeah, you got this. So you said it was three purple?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Ooh, two success, one threat. Get a strain, I almost drop it.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, you you got it, but uh you have a code cylinder, so the higher ranking officers wear multiple code cylinders that have different codes in them.

SPEAKER_03

Oh man.

SPEAKER_06

Uh so a moth like Loam would have had four. Girl, so it might not be the right one.

SPEAKER_03

Uh well, I guess it's only one way to find out.

SPEAKER_04

Um I'm uh should I should I text uh I don't know if I have her text, but I'm like, uh, is there any more?

SPEAKER_06

I don't think I don't think you would have her text if you even if you did, she ain't looking at her phone right now. No.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I mean if it's not, maybe we can see if we can hack our way past the rest. We got Elyria. Elyria is smart, smart people who do everything that smart people do, right?

SPEAKER_07

I have no ranks in computers. Yeah, maybe having time.

SPEAKER_03

Smart people are all smart at the same things. It's fine.

SPEAKER_04

That's why a Dr. House can create a spaceship.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. That's true.

SPEAKER_04

Who could forget that fate that episode?

SPEAKER_06

I thought you were talking about in Tomorrowland. Oh, I guess it's touched.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, let's go back up to his office. Let's give that a try.

SPEAKER_06

You can uh go back up to his office. Um since it was only one threat, it's gonna be a one purple computers just to make sure it's or if you want to burn your last destiny point. What do you think? To make it the right point.

SPEAKER_07

How many? One purple. Four.

SPEAKER_06

One purple?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. That's just to make sure it's the right one before you plug it in.

SPEAKER_06

I'll I'll give you a destiny point now. We'll call it a red.

SPEAKER_07

Sure. That means I could get a despair.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Two success, three advantage. Okay.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, dog. So you can open his door. You see his desk in there. Uh there are family photos. There are uh various trophies from his time during the war. You can see a clone trooper's rifle, uh, a couple of helmets that have been apparently you see numbers on them. They've been signed by the men under his command. It seems like he was uh fairly popular. And you see uh suspended in some kind of gel or plastic, like almost like suspended in amber, uh his leg that he kept.

SPEAKER_03

Oh I didn't even realize he was missing one. We kept saying a whole speech about it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Used to be an adventurer until he lost his fucking leg.

SPEAKER_03

We were coming here for the contracts. Okay, does he have a like a terminal in the terminal at his desk? Okay. What was the security situation on the terminal like?

SPEAKER_06

Uh well if you plug his code cylinder in, it seems like the computer and the door use different code cylinders, so you will need to actually try and hack into this one.

SPEAKER_03

What would that be?

SPEAKER_06

So I'll give you a destiny point. This would be a red, two purples, and a black.

SPEAKER_03

Ooh.

SPEAKER_07

Computers?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Do I have do do can I upgrade mine? You're a smart person, you're smart at everything.

SPEAKER_03

Unless, like, specifically getting past computer security could be argued as skull doggery. I don't think so though.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, I think this would be a it would be a computer security.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

But can I upgrade it?

SPEAKER_06

With a destiny?

SPEAKER_07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

One success, one threat.

SPEAKER_06

So you can uh log in and you can find files. Um do you want to spend time searching or do you want to because it might be it's hard to say what would be quicker. Presumably you brought some kind of media to download information onto. So you could either do a full dump or you could try and uh search for specific things. I don't know if you would know at a glance which would be quicker because a full dump of his terminal might take a while, but also looking around for the files you need, trying to identify them now, might also take a while. Mm-hmm. Okay, so you can do a full dump of the terminal. Uh you can see the bar on the screen slowly filling up. And because you did get that threat, uh oh. After it's about like 25% of the way there, there is a click on the outside and the door opens. And uh you see Trilla, the woman from the bar. She says, Oh, I'm sorry, I was looking for the bathroom. Perception. I'm gonna perceive against her.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, is she was she also is she actually looking for the bathroom, or was she also trying to bust it and now she's lying?

SPEAKER_06

Uh well, do you want her to roll deception against somebody? Does anybody have nobody's fool? I have two ranks. And that uh upgrades. Uh so what is your discipline then? My discipline? Yeah. Uh discipline is two green, so that's not great. Okay, well, that's against two reds.

SPEAKER_01

Oh!

SPEAKER_06

Uh she rolled a failure in a despair.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, oh fuck.

SPEAKER_07

Spill, spill, spill.

SPEAKER_03

Is she lying?

SPEAKER_06

Chris, um, this woman, she is about your age. And maybe you weren't paying attention, maybe you were too busy scoping out this MILV uh that was in the corner when Starzan was talking to her. But now that you're in a more well-lit room, the the office has lights on, it's not like the dark bar. This woman, she's about your age. She said her name was Trilla, and suddenly it clicks. You recognize her. Oh. Trilla Siduri was a Jedi Padawan who was in your class at the temple.

SPEAKER_03

Oh.

SPEAKER_06

Oh shit. She's a fucking imperial knight.

SPEAKER_03

Oh no.

SPEAKER_04

Oh no. To think she was making Starzan have second thoughts about his instant vault. How dare. Uh Starzan will never trust again. Uh, but uh in and she right now she's trying to talk to me, uh, talk to me about something.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, she got failure and despair. Uh, so she's thinking, oh, I was just trying to uh go to the bathroom. Obviously, she knows who you are. Uh obviously her conversation with Starzan, if there was any doubt, Starzan talking about his past confirmed exactly who he is. Um she knows who you are. She can probably glean that you're here for some purpose. She probably doesn't think you know about the Death Star. She was probably sent here as security for the wedding. Um she doesn't know she got failure with despair. She doesn't know that you know that she knows who you are.

SPEAKER_04

Ah, yes, the uh uh the bathroom, I believe, is uh uh right that way uh right that way, madame.

SPEAKER_06

Hey, you uh Oh, of course, yes. I uh this door just happened to be open, so I uh uh I stumbled in. So you d so you decide to stumble?

SPEAKER_04

Do you uh know uh this place is can be a little bit of a maze.

SPEAKER_06

Yes, I would love to have someone show me. Twercules, would you like to show me to the bathroom?

SPEAKER_04

Oh, twerk uh Twercules is currently indispose. He has to get ready for something.

SPEAKER_06

Oh, I don't I don't mind. I could uh help dispose of him.

SPEAKER_03

Oop. I mean s if Twercules wants to to go out with her and then just like knock her out.

SPEAKER_04

Did she say the quiet part out loud?

SPEAKER_03

Yes, maybe.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. I believe so I believe so. And I I I'm I'm looking at her as and uh I just say like you mean uh take him out to dinner. Take care of him. Oh, I can take care of him. When you say take care of him, you mean to take care of him, not fucking take care of him, right? Oh, I mean I'll take good care of him.

SPEAKER_03

Hmm.

SPEAKER_04

Suspicious. Can we knock this bitch out?

SPEAKER_03

I got a dildo saber, I could maybe whip it out. And like put it to her face and just like just keep quiet or I turn it on.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, you're in uh the moff's office. You're in the moffice. Nobody else is in there. You're downloading the stuff from his computer. This Imperial Knight, this undercover Imperial Knight, has walked in on you guys. She knows who you are. Starzan, your lightsaber's in the cake. Uh Illyria, I don't think you have yours. Do you have yours?

SPEAKER_07

I said I strapped it to my leg under my. You strapped it.

SPEAKER_06

Nobody checked you, so you're probably fine. You've got yours. Uh Chris, do you have yours?

SPEAKER_04

Uh it's in uh Zin's tendril.

SPEAKER_03

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Zin is not in the room with you. Oh, then I don't have it. I don't have it. Zinn could be able to get starzance from the cake if you needed her to make a quick delivery. Uh Kala's got hers in her packer.

SPEAKER_03

In retrospect, it's a little silly that I went through all the effort of turning my lightsaper into a packer when it's like Elyria's like, nah, I just tied it to my leg, it was fine.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I put mine in a cake.

SPEAKER_03

Everyone else went through so much effort.

SPEAKER_04

I put mine in somebody's brain.

SPEAKER_07

I have a holographic costume, which means I could make the skirt larger.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, it would be voluminous. Because if we if we just want to like try to deal with this in this office, don't don't let things spill over. Then maybe if Zin can run for uh the lightsabers and deliver them fast.

SPEAKER_04

Deliver us from evil here.

SPEAKER_03

Illyria and I and I mean unarmed Starzate is still pretty formidable.

SPEAKER_04

That's true. Not against the lightsaber though. Yeah, but like, you know, hopefully she won't have a chance to get out her lightsaber. It's a good point. Gotta think positively.

SPEAKER_03

I hip off this off. Could I whip off my my backer? Drop point it at her face just like keep your mouth shut or I turn it on. Maybe she won't even register it as a threat.

SPEAKER_06

She does like intimidation. The lip zip thing where it's like, I don't need to speak. And she reaches the slit in her dress and draws her own lightsaber from inside. Lights, uh, just turn it on, turn it on.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, just turn it on. She turns on.

SPEAKER_04

Uh how long will it take for my lightsaber to get here? My star sword.

SPEAKER_06

If Chris wants to uh signal to Zinn to start running, that will start the clock. Um start ref uh uh start running. Okay. That that that can be a maneuver. Is there anything you want to do with your action, Chris? I mean, I don't have any weapons with me, do I? Uh this is the moth's office. Uh he does have some uh blasters from his time in the war mounted on the wall.

SPEAKER_04

I will take I'll I'll take the biggest one and I will uh uh see if it hits.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so that would be uh probably a got a DC 15. So that would be a uh ranged heavy.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, that would be a ranged heavy? Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Uh and uh what's your brawn? Pfft two Okay, so it it it has cumbersome three, so you'll have to add a black onto that as well.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. Uh sorry, what was the dice pool?

SPEAKER_06

Uh so this is a short range room. She's got defense, she's got adversary, so that'll be a red, a purple, and a black, and another black for the cumbersome.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, I'm gonna flip it, Destiny. Uh, how many destinies do we got?

SPEAKER_06

We got two right now.

SPEAKER_04

I'm gonna flip one.

SPEAKER_06

Two success, two threat. Can blast at her. She is going to try and reflect it. So she can reduce by seven. Seven. But you can get a couple of hits on her. A couple of them do hit her, uh, singing her dress.

SPEAKER_04

And uh, I hide behind a table. You can die behind a table into cover.

SPEAKER_03

Uh, I'll I'll go next, because I'm closest to her. I did a mid-game level up and got a rank in Quick Strike. Yeah, you did. So, because I'll go at her with the lightsaber. I'm not very good at with my lightsaber, but. So I'll let me add a blue. And I also have Ravage, so once per counter, you suffer three straight to add force, up to their force rate you do a combat check, and they can spend it to uh add success or advantage. So I'll take three straight and by force pips onto there.

SPEAKER_06

She's got two ranks of melee defense, she's got two ranks of adversary, so that'll be two red and two blacks.

SPEAKER_03

Ooh! Two success, two advantage, two dark side, one light side. What do we have for Destiny?

SPEAKER_06

You have one.

SPEAKER_03

Mmm. You know what? I won't flip it, because at two advantage, that is enough for me to activate disorient, where I can spend two advantages to disorient the target for a number of rounds equal to ranks in disorient. So, I guess I'd only be able to activate that once, anyways. So yeah, she's disoriented for a round.

SPEAKER_06

And she is going to parry that as well. Okay. But it is enough to uh put her off her game.

SPEAKER_04

I'll just try and do a tackle, I guess.

SPEAKER_06

Okay. Yeah, it's fine. Maybe disarm. Try and disarm her. Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Slip her arms off.

SPEAKER_06

So if you want to relieve her of her lightsaber, uh, that'll be two reds and two blacks for all. Actually, four blacks, because you'll have to haul your shot as well. Fuck.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. Um, I'm also going to uh use one of my force points to add my strength to six. That is. Two success, one dark side, one lightside.

SPEAKER_06

Since your aim was to uh take her lightsaber from her, you can pull it out of her hand, uh, and then Illyria. Exactly.

SPEAKER_07

How's the data transfer going or whatever I'm doing?

SPEAKER_06

Uh, it is at 50%.

SPEAKER_07

Alright. I Oh my god. I mean, I could just use my lightsaber. How far I just how far away am I?

SPEAKER_06

You would have to leap over the desk, so you'd have to spend a maneuver to leap over the desk and run at her. Avoid uh slashing Starzan. Oh, okay. Okay. Yeah, be an a- be an action hero. Let's do it.

SPEAKER_07

I'll run. I'll chop. I'll flee.

SPEAKER_06

Okay. So that is gonna be uh two reds and three blacks to avoid, because Starzan's right there, so you're gonna have to avoid slashing him.

SPEAKER_07

We we fighting to kill. One success, three threat. That's something.

SPEAKER_06

So yeah, you can uh slice at her, digging deep into her arm. She probably should have worn some sleeves.

SPEAKER_03

It was very classy though.

SPEAKER_06

But you did get uh some threat on that. So you swing wide with your strike. Uh a big, a big swing on it. It's now her turn. She's gonna use the move power to continue your momentum.

SPEAKER_03

Oh.

SPEAKER_06

Uh so she got two darks. Uh a lightsaber is a silhouette zero object. Uh, so that is enough to continue your momentum as you swing around and hit Starzan. Oh! So uh your lightsaber does base damage to him. What is your base? Now she gets to do her uh That passes my soak, right? Yeah, it bypasses your soak.

SPEAKER_07

But I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_06

It's almost half, I heard. Okay, you have the heal power for next round. So, uh she does have an ability. She is going to commit, you guys keep attacking her, she's going to commit one of her dice, which she can use to upgrade the difficulty of attacks targeting her twice. That's gonna add another red to anybody who's attacking her. Okay. And for her action, she is going to uh use the force to try and pull her lightsaber back out of Starzan's hands.

SPEAKER_03

Oh man, that's not a roll either, is it? So it doesn't even add the black.

SPEAKER_06

So she got uh two lights and one dark. She pulls the lightsaber back into uh her own hands out of Starzan's, and she's gonna take two strain and she's going to uh move into a defensive posture. So that's gonna uh add a black onto any attacks against her as well.

SPEAKER_03

Well, um, if it's the top of the round again, I uh I don't know how this'll work, but I'm gonna try to do a suppress on her. And I'm gonna try to do mastery, which is discipline versus discipline, to see if I can get her to uncommit those pips that she just committed. Okay. So what would that be against?

SPEAKER_06

This would be oof. I have a feeling she's gonna uncommit him to purple.

SPEAKER_03

Two purple. You know what?

SPEAKER_06

I'm gonna- I'm gonna I I have to give her a destiny point. It'll be a red and a purple.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, I got two yellow, one green, so it's like it's not i uh she might still be. Look, she was a Padawan. She was a Padawan. Oh, and then we have another destiny point, hooray! Dang! Oh, that's embarrassing. One failure, one advantage for Dark Side. I literally can't use any of that. Man, that sucked.

SPEAKER_04

That really does.

SPEAKER_03

That's that's maybe the advantage is that uh she's like, oh, that person's not a threat. Just ignores me for a bit.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, she shrugs off. Oh I've heard about your ability to suck, and it's true you do, Kala.

SPEAKER_03

Oh no, she fucking didn't. Look, there's nothing you can say about me Elyria hasn't said better.

SPEAKER_07

It's true, I am mean.

SPEAKER_03

Only Illyria's allowed to bully me. So who's gonna go next?

SPEAKER_04

I guess I could try and just like smack her.

SPEAKER_03

Knock her out.

SPEAKER_06

Knock her out. Let's try that. Uh so she's now so she's in a defensive posture, so that adds a black, and she's committing one of her force uh dice. So that is going to it upgrades the difficulty twice. So that is gonna be against three reds and three blacks.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. Uh-oh.

SPEAKER_03

Uh-oh.

SPEAKER_04

Uh, four failures, one despair. Oh no. Uh one advantage, one dark side, one lightside.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so she gets a free with that despair, she gets a free cap with her lightsaber. You take base damage. That's another.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, Nelly.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

I'm still standing. I don't have much left.

SPEAKER_03

And remember how we like killed all the Jedi Masters because they inexplicably were just like all rolling really, really bad? This kind of feels like it's uh it's a reverse happening.

SPEAKER_06

You're all rolling really, really bad.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. This one this one former Padawan is gonna annihilate us because we just cannot get a success.

SPEAKER_06

If fucking Cal Castis can kick her ass, but the four of you can't. What are we even doing here?

SPEAKER_03

I bet next round my suppress is gonna work real good.

SPEAKER_06

So Cal and Starzan have gone.

I feel as though if she's knocked out, we probably could just sneak out of here because we got all we need, right? You got all you need, but when she wakes up, what's gonna happen?

SPEAKER_03

Is there any way to do a mind wipe?
