Last time on no latency side quest. Sweet hot lead. You know what that means? No, I'm not. No, I don't have a gun. I don't. Is there a clear shot it's? Got messy tunes? Hostage do that going to take that body shot. And I'm going to pick up Maggie and throw it at them. Great, but what the fuck? Oh yeah, the chat is just clipping bad now. I'm sorry, tune. Pick it up, put it in your pocket. Cover me, I got to get this fixed. Really don't want to pick up that gun, man. I'm sorry, Did he?
Just come what happened? Trying to whack him right in the head, yeah. I enforce the NBA. Yeah, it's when I shoot. Oh no. Listen, I've worked for these fuckers. They will not be honest. Before we go poke in the bear. If we got paid yet, maybe. We talked to Natasha. Maybe they're at the other. It's only a few blocks away. I'm. Sure it will be fine on the grand scale. Marvin wise it. Was not fine. No, it was not. This is going to this is going to be a great collab.
I, I can, I can already see this is going to be this is going to, I mean, I, I don't quite know how to get through all of this stuff that you just handed me, but I think I think we're going to have a good time, man. It's going to be great. Well, well, in honor of your collab, what's the cover story? We want to get in there. Are we doing the story or are we doing the pissed off? I was going to say customers
pissed off contract employees. That just got our heads almost blown up. Oh, they don't care, can I? So if you tell them you have a tip for them that could probably increase revenue if they fix it really quick, they'll they'll, they'll listen to that 100 times before you say you almost got killed. Yeah, I second that. I probably should use that more often. Usually I just throw angry burning bags of poo through the doors. Or dead bodies. Well, those are harder to find. Are they though?
In Night City. There's not one on every corner, but well, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll. I'll take your lead, Lumen. Whatever you need me to do, I'll fall after you. Oh, OK, sure, OK, sure. Yeah, yeah, I got down. So walking up to the front door, here is there. Do we have to kid buzzed in? Is it Timmy just well. Perception. Oh, that's, that's fair. I'm going to pull Cargill off to the side. I know you think you beat me at that ball game. Oh yeah. I don't know. I challenge you.
Challenge me. Yeah, I challenge you. You challenge me, are you? You're coming right up to me and you're challenging me. Yeah. Oh, you don't want to come up to me and challenge me? I will show you and the cup and the cup and ball Master I'm. Going to say this. OK. Feel like we're probably going to get into more fights. OK. Whoever has the bigger kill count wins. If I win, I get your pay for whatever this was. If you win, I'll convince Neon
Pass to make you a mod. Boy, you don't have that power. Hey Neon, you still want those recommendations for mod? Oh heck yeah man, I'm this, this stream is blowing up. I'm going to need a few more. All right, I got a short list. I'll just look directly back at you. You you realize this means I must destroy you. Whatever keeps your head in the game. Oh yeah. And and you're having this incredibly cool guy moment. I thought it was locked.
As you watch Lumen fall through the front door of this place, he falls into the lobby. Very. Sexual when he falls. That's his king. He just thought he thought it was locked. You felt right. I don't know. Can I help you? Says the receptionist. And you get up and you dust yourself up. You know you didn't hurt yourself. It's really embarrassing. Oh, no, it's my pride. Yeah, I didn't expect to get this far.
Hi. Yes. Oh, we were just part of product testing for the the cup and ball product that you're you're about to launch. Oh. Cool we haven't had our heart back name yet to how'd it go? I think we have some notes that might help, and this would be like a small patch you could roll out and. If not, just tell Maggie those notes. Maggie was busy. Maggie was busy. Why she's not picking up and Howard from there is picking up crazy. It's it. Is it it?
Yeah. So, so if there's someone we could speak to and we could just give them these notes, we really think it would help the product and and is. There someone you wanted to speak to? Is anyone specific or? Is Mr. Wise available? Maybe I see him down there. She points down the hallway and Mr. Why not be that easy? Standing in front of a woman and you're really far away, So what you can see is that he's shouting at her. What I need you to? Understand is get this done before Christmas.
Eve, are we clear? And then he walks out of sight. Would you, is it OK if me in the test group just try to try to get him before he's too engaged in something else? We don't want to take up a lot of his time is the thing. Yeah, sure. Just sign in in the in the sign in book and make sure you leave your fingerprint. Yeah, yeah, All of us. Or just me? Every person who comes in the building has to sign in and give
their fingerprint. I OK I I fully understand, I just didn't know if everyone was under my fingerprint because that would be a but this is fine. This is fine. No, no, we we need that in case some shit goes down. Right. It would never do that though. It's no. No, I'm at the happy company. Be happy. He's going to sign it just like get out of there. Just like, come on guys, can. You sign your actual name. Sure. I I think he would. I just think it's Yeah, of course I'd sign my real name.
Why wouldn't I? And. Do the rest of the group follow you into the building? Because they don't have to. I just signed POS and maybe do a funny little drawing. Of a possum. Cool. Yeah, I'd. I'd follow, I said I'd be right behind Lewin and I am one to stick to my word as best I can. I do not like giving my fingerprint though, so First off I'm going to sign the Jebadiah Popeska though. OK. And then I would like to accidentally break the fingerprint machine. That would not.
It's just. Ink and paper. Oh, then I'm just going to roll my finger as just one big giant smudge. No whirls. Well, then roll for it. If you if you want to do that, you can roll forgery or try and convince me of something else. 28 Yeah, that's good. You have tech hands.
That's excellent. So you smear your fingerprint and the receptionist doesn't notice because they're filing their nails, regrowing them, and then trying to get the perfect shape and then regrowing them and then trying to get the perfect shape. The fuck you finger never is right. What? I'm going to be honest, you're a little long on the right side of. That. One fuck you. Yeah, I thought so. I mean. Stay happy. I'm kidding, right? Cargill, what do you do?
Cargill and Vex, are you coming in? Yeah, Cargill comes in and writes down Cargill. Past past, pal past. PAL number 007. And at least it's not great effects. You coming in. Yeah, I'd walk right in, not do anything special. He's along for the ride. Cool. You're all inside. And you see the woman that Mervyn was talking to? OK, it's Kite, just like a. Pocket, that's all he's. Gonna do. Yeah. Hi, man. I just, I, well, we'll just ask
her where he was going. So you walk down the hallway, you pass more of those commercials you saw at the marketing place. They glow yellow in here. As you're walking on the yellow floor, there's this like, red line that leads up to a locked door at the end that says main train staff only. And she's standing in front of it. And you can see she's having emotion. If you want to learn more about those emotions role human perception, which is Cyberpunk's version of insight. That's not.
My best. You say that a lot, Lumen. A lot isn't my best. You say that a lot but still rolled in 18 so. If I, I think that's my, that, that's like saying someone's going to crit on someone else's turn. I'm not going to say that anymore. So. So Cargill and Neon, you look at this woman and she seems upset, but you can't really work out what kind of upset lumen you see. Regret, shame. I so approaching. I think it would. And sorrow. Oh, ma'am. Excuse me. Sorry, sorry. Who are you? No.
Who are you in? At the door I fell it. We were just here to talk to Mr. Wise. We were part of the testing group for for the cup and ball and we had we had a couple of suggestions. We thought you'd want to know about it. Are you OK? Yeah, you, you. You've played the game. And she takes a step right from you. What? What group are you in? A. Oh, OK. What did you want to know? Sorry you had feedback from me. Sorry. I. No, no, no, no. It's OK. We'll forget about that for a
second. Are you OK? What's wrong? I'm. I'm fine, just some corporate arguments, you know? OK, no, I I get it. I, I, I, Yeah. Well, test Group B had some side effects, right, guys? What would you describe the side effects as? They went cyber psycho. Oh. Fuck. Aggressive. Yeah. Did anybody get hurt? Oh boy. Yeah. Maggie fell to pieces. Is Maggie OK? In a sense. No.
I meant literally. Oh. Fuck. The thing about corporations is there are some things you can't say, you know, there are some things that I can't say. She swallows hard. I I have a pretty good conversation is is there a way I can speak around it and still get an answer that I can interpret, like kind of reading it between the lines? Yeah, definitely. Roll for it. 23 I'm good at talking. Yeah, she gives you a look. What do you say to her to convince her to do something?
It seems like the Group B thing wasn't unexpected and we would really like to kind of curb that in any way we can, right? And if something were to happen that were outside of your control, you, you, you had no idea that that this could happen. Would that help you? Hypothetically speaking. Of course. Of course, yeah. And she looks at this group of edge runners in this hallway. You look very out of place. This place is clean as shit and you're all dirty.
Oh, I like to kind of, you know. After that fight, you're all dirty. Yeah, I know, I know. Hanging your head in shame, yeah. I know, I'm sorry. I'm a dirty boy. Dirty boy. I'm a filthy filthy. And she eyes the corridor to her left and looks at a security guard. Well, it's, it's near the end of
the day, of course. And hypothetically speaking, what I should do is relieve my team and lock this door behind me, this door where they do all the research for the latest product it's coming out, which I'm sure you're very excited about after testing it, right? Yeah, very. It's very I the adrenaline was pumping. Good. And let's say hypothetically speaking, I had like maybe, maybe I can't help you directly, but I might, I might say that like Mr. Wise has left this
building for the day. I might say that, and I also say that I'm just going to. And she walks back, you know? It I should, I should really be careful to not leave this door open. It's the end of the day. You could you too. So we can. We're done. Yeah. And these two technicians in the room. OK, OK, Doctor Gray, we. Didn't really fight. It's fine. Go home. And she steps out, and these two assistants step out the room. OK. Sorry, Natasha, just. Fucking go. Big group of people.
And these two people walk past you and you wave at them and they they wave at you back. Don't worry about it. Bye. I'll see you tomorrow. Don't forget the picnic on Sunday. Be happy. And and you know, I would never say, I would never say that. I would never say that, that my computer's in there. I'd never say that. Anyway, I'm just going to close this door and lock it because I'm, that's my job, you know, as the head of the R&D department.
And it was lovely to meet you, but the the craziest thing has happened. I've completely forgotten your name. And she looks at you as she walks around, and you turn around as she walks past you towards the main door. It'd be an awful thing if the if the Happy Company secrets got out, wouldn't it? Yeah, I'm Lumen. I just. I. He's not trying to. He's trying to be helpful in that. It's like, no. You're not. No, like, no you're not. We'll see. I. Hey, we got.
Thank you so much for everything. We're gonna. We're gonna, Yeah, we're just gonna you a. Happy Christmas. We're just gonna be here, you know? Yeah, Mary. Yeah, we're gonna spend our work. What? What money did we get again for doing this? Fun box. Yeah, our fun box. Where do where do we even spend those fucking things? I'm not spending it on that ball and cup game.
That's. And as you're, as you're saying this retro you, you look, you look in this in this hallway, you can see that there are vending machines where you could redeem that for cash do. Vending machines. Oh, so we can't exchange it for cash? Oh, OK. Yeah, you have to do it at A, at A, at a happy company vending machine and there are three this. Hallway I I would love to do that. Let's get. It right? So I just feed it the QR. Code or Yeah, there's a machine just to your S Do you see the
vendor just there? No. No, there it is. Soon, soon, soon, soon. Line. I think you're first there bud. And you get exactly what they promised. You've signed a contract with a corporation and they're going to stick to it. So everyone earns 500 eddies except who gains 550. Yeah. It's the last thing Maggie did, apparently before she died, was register your win. What did I say? Maggie's a full on hero. Gosh, she's such a champ. Such a champ. Is there anything inside of the?
Machines. Oh nice, so you rolled 2 twos in A10? You find the physical version of bowl in a cup in the vending machine part of a promotional reward for pre-order bonuses that you can only currently buy in this building until Christmas Eve. And then you find that the the lowest layer of this vending machine has broken and those two rows have very warm boost in them. Each can is 30 yetis.
I want the ball in the cup for sure because that reminds me of the first toy that my adoptive mother gave me so. It is 40 eddies. It's pretty cheap. Yeah, yeah, I'll buy that. Sure. And it's 3D printed and the little wire that connects the ball to the cup is like carbon fiber. It's really. Oh, yeah. No, this is really good. Yeah. That's like a weapon. Try to.
You could the ball and the cup. This isn't the same as the one that that my my mom gave me. That one, that one you had, like it was a cup on both ends so you could try to get it on a higher side. And Lumen, you look over at the door to R&D. Hey, guys. You may not have picked up on that. It was super subtle, but I think that Lady who might have been Natasha just did us a favor and left the whole R&D department unlocked for us and we could go take a look.
Just, you know, yeah. Yeah. You. You know what I'm saying? Give me one now. The only problem with this is that there is a guard to the South staring at you. Oh, hi. Cargill knots at you guys and he walks over to the guard. That is a that's a nice weapon you're packing. What are you? What are they armed you guys with? Oh, hey, man, How's it going? Yeah, I don't. Yeah, man, that's pretty sick. It's a company issue. That's why it's yellow. It's not my color.
I'm more of a red guy myself. No, no, I could tell you look like a red guy. I could see that. Do you like no one's around? Oh no, I don't see nobody. He. Takes out a Santa hat and puts it on. Oh bro. Yeah, that's you. That's pretty sick. Roll Persuasion to see if this fucking works. Not a chance in hell, but let's go. Christmas keeps on giving. And as he's like showing you, his gun goes off and it the bullet goes towards your foot. Roll Evasion. Where is evasion?
Oh, it's in Fighter. It's in fighting, yeah. Like, minus the bullet goes, the bullet goes into your shoe, scrapes the top of your foot and flies out and hits the vending machine and the vending machine and you take 3 damage. Oh. Dude, fuck, oh dude, oh dude, oh dude. Fuck. Oh fuck, dude. Oh dude. You have got to get me to a medic. Fuck. I've got a Med. Do you want a Med patch? Please don't tell my boss. Oh my God. Oh. OK, OK, let me help me out with this.
Oh God my oh this hurts. Oh my God, oh dude, oh dude, God, oh guys. No one saw anything right? Oh my God, I could lose my job. I got, I got it all on camera. I got it all on camera. It's gonna be a huge liability. Yeah, man, Sorry. Hey, hey, hey, squirrel guy. Come here. Come here. Yeah, OK, Pop. Yeah, he waves. His gun at you. All right, Cool. OK, cool. Cool. I need you to like, delete the footage and then maybe if I like, pay you off, you'll leave me alone.
I'll leave you guys alone. Hey steel shipping the vending machine, I'll give a fuck. I got a better idea. Why don't you First off subscribe to my stream just. You know I'll. Send this to you. Boom, flips it over. Oh dude what? Do you call this is red sick? I like purple too. Yeah, man, it looks, it looks good. I got a couple of outfits like that. So good to have you in the past, pals. I'm really sorry for shooting your friend. I'm really that's my bad. Hey, you know what?
You know what you know what? Don't even worry about it. I'm going to delete this video. Why don't you take like a 30 minute break just outside of the building? Yeah, totally. I mean, the break room's just down there. So like this is good. We're good. I don't want to give you anything we're. Good. And I'm going to see you in the past, pals, right? Yeah, I'll, I'll, I'll check out your latest video. So there's a fight and. He's walking away like looking at. A button, Sir.
Hold on, Sir. Sir. Yeah, I thought we were good. Can we? Can I just fucking go? Or not? Can I have that patch? I'm bleeding. Yeah, he or he, he hands you a patch as he walks away. It's, it's a, it's you have to take your shoe off and wrap it around, but it stings a little bit, but it does return to HP. Sir, I I don't think my friends were being completely honest with you and I feeling like the honourable one should be the one to tell you. You know that your security
cameras caught that too, right? I mean, yes, but also no, because there are no cameras in this particular bit of the hallway. That's why Mr. Wise likes to leave through this back door. So no, I can. I shouldn't have said that. That's stupid. I didn't say. What, sorry, I, I was kind of scratching my ear. I, I, I couldn't hear what you said for that last bit. I wanted to check to make sure that you weren't going to get caught back by your own company.
That's all. So. The cameras were on, everyone would see that the code for the door is 21470. Shit. What? Exactly. Fuck, I need to grow. And he walks away. One second, I'm so sorry. I don't want to hold you up. I just want to thank you and tell you there's a little button next to the trigger that turns the safety on. And if you do that. He gives you a look. Just trying. To be helpful just like OK. Bye, you know. What you know what, Jason? Excellent call back inspiration. Thank you.
That was good, and so now you've cleared the guard by someone taking a bullet. Cargill. That was pretty cool though, not going to lie. I mean, you literally. Yeah. I mean. Just try planned. So we should get in that. We should get it. Yeah, No, no, let's let's limp over there, walk over there. We know no one's in there. Let's just go in. Let's go, let's do it. Hello, it's Ian from Respect the Crit, an inclusive tabletop RPG actual play podcast about

Whatever the system miss or a hit, you always got to respect the crit. Join us BI Weekly every other Wednesday for characters, campaigns and new episodes anywhere podcasts exist. Hey, hey, hang on, hang on. Gets out of his phone. All right, everyone, we got another surprise stream going on.
This one's going. To be a little bit. Quieter, I can't talk to chat so much. Hey POS pals, still with my buddies here. We just found I just. Walk in. Some cool stuff, yeah, I wouldn't. Let's just go in. As you walk in, you see to your right. Just before you step fully into the room, you see to your right that there's a security camera to the right. I step back out of the If you you, it can't see the door at its current angle because it's pointed straight across the room.
OK, I'm going to turn back to the group who's good with camera shit. You know, just making it not do the camera thing. There's camera right inside. Well, Lumen's pretty illuminating. Yeah, you're a tech guy. Can you make that move? I can't. Where's the? I need an access point. The console to open this door is connected to the local security network. That'll do it. OK, I've had good luck with this. Please just hey. Oh honey, one you loop the. Footage.
Of the empty room. Oh, we Ocean's 11 it. Oh, OK guys, I got like one more good role in me. So whatever we're going to do, let's fucking. I've never had a run of luck this good. And you make your way into the room. I'm assuming everybody. Yes. Oh. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, amazing. So you will make your way into the room. Does anyone close the door behind them? I'll, I'll.
Close the door and kind of try and make sure it stays close behind us. Like even if it's just blocking it and holding it because the less he does the better he figures at this. Point actually, are you in there too? Yeah, mainly because Retro needs to find a way to get his count up after making that deal with Cargill, because Cargill's up by 1 now. Yeah, if you want to have a look around this room with more
detail, please roll perception. But what you see is 2 sort of desks, a bunch of closets on the wall to the east. There's only one of the desks has a computer on it, the other has marks from someone making equipment and probably prototyping. And on the N wall there is a large mainframe computer. Well, I'd like to go to the mainframe computer. Sure, Neon passes with. There are cables leading from the mainframe computer to the
computer on the desk. Can I plug my neural link which is the audio visual ports in my head to the mainframe computer and see what I can find? Sure. 30. Oh. 33 The mainframe computer has no storage. There's something really weird about this machine, and as you dig through the data, you find a bunch of overinflated RAM chips. You find empty data ports to inflate the data being displayed. At the very, very base of this system. You find a thing that says open close. OK DM, quick question.
Yes. Would I assume this to be that it's wide open because nothing's really been put into it, or that it's been cleaned out? It's not a mainframe computer, it's a door. So there's another way out of here I guess. Maybe. The back door. I oh, I love a back door. It's only all. Well, Roger, I did my bit. What are you all doing? Do you tell everybody that? Oh, yeah, no, I'm like, oh, no, I, I I I found a back door. Like a literal back door. Not just like a back door in the
system, like a back door. This thing not even actually a computer. It's just like is. This the one emptiness. Is this the one that Weiss goes out of? Is this the? Is this the door they were talking about? No, I don't know now hit open that. Was in the whole way outside. Oh, got it.
Yeah, and you see, a countdown doesn't feel like a bomb countdown just feels like an unlock countdown as it sort of undoes a bunch of bolts in the wall and you hear it disengaging feels like it's going to take a second. Cool. I'm. Just going. To sit there and wait, you know what? No, I'm going to pull out my shotgun again and then I'm going to be sitting there and waiting. Does anyone else look at anything else in this room? I'll take a look at the computer on the desk, but it seems moot
now. Give. It a shot. Yeah. You rolled 18 on basic tech, and as you look at this computer you see the last user to log in was Natasha Gray, and with weirdly very little resistance, you discover a document. Oh, this is this is a bit deeper. OK, so some of this information's redacted, but there's a bit at the beginning. Do the highly controversial nature of the latest happy company product.
The following in highly classified is highly classified considering a company and considered a company. Sick of that makes sense. Yeah. Do not distribute. Natasha, you signed an NDA. This report is to be buried. Don't undermine me again. You think I wouldn't find this Mr. Wise? Oh, OK. So obviously this is the, the rest of this is from Natasha. OK. The blank are secure. Work on the software continues. Their blank continues to baffle the R&D team as well as its
effect on others. There's no doubt they want to be close so they have to be separated per orders. They both are more blank now, yet the code still holds. The connection they have is blank and that data has mostly a similar effect on most exposed mostly and most are like highlighted red now. Blank of test subjects experience withdraws after exposure. This seems to clear up after a few weeks. However, blank negatively affected are also seeming seeing
symptoms of big blank. I don't think that Mister Weiss will take heed of this. It's my professional opinion the project should be scrapped. Miss Mr. Weiss vendetta against these two stinks. I doubt they even need the blank. Nothing in my scan suggests that is the case, despite Mr. Weiss fervent insistence. Honestly, big blank Natasha Grey. I bet all the I bet all the like the the blanks that they put in
there are swear words. They just didn't want anyone to have to see all that language you. Want to print all of that file? You can't attempt to do so. What would that be? Can I give them help? Sure. Yeah, well, I got a bunch of luck too. Mm, hmm. Mm. Hmm. Oh yeah. Yeah, just make sure you change the code because they're probably, if it's redacted, they just slapped a sensor bar over it.
So if you decided to make that into either a transparent or a separate color, then the regular font is just going to pop up over that. Oh, I had a Batman comic like that. Who's Batman? Go for it. Me or them? Roll for Batman. You want to help? I thought you were. I thought you were asking me to roll if I didn't. Eight, yes, you pass over a decryption algorithm and it removed 28. Yeah, it removes the redacted information.
Oh. Oh. See a 15 to 22% of test subjects experienced withdrawals after exposure. Over 5% of those negatively affected are also seeing symptoms of rage, violence and inhumanity. Who are the? Twins. And a door opens in the mainframe, Neon as you turn around. They're in that room. There's a male figure crucified in a pod, cables cascading at the back back of his head and his eyes robbed back past his eyelids, his mouth agape as light moves away from his brain into the machines.
Around him is a macabre sight, and we'll do really well as a thumbnail. Someone's been watching too much Evangelion. Are you OK? Guys, I don't think he's happy. How, how do we, how do we help you? I'm gonna look around and and see if I can see a a Safeway to unplug this guy or around his body or around the machine or or something. Oh, he's a fork. He's a net runner. Oh. You found this secret side room behind the mainframe. I want to get all I get all of
this. I just I like I'm do like as I'm looking for some place to unplug him. I'm like just recording of panoramic of this room in this this scene. Fucking hate corpose. OK Cargill Vex. Can you find some kind of cooling apparatus? Like, I don't know, maybe some cold water, ice if preferable, Something like that. Cargill. Cargo types into the chat and says me and I'm watching the door. Got it. He's he's at the door. Oh shit. I'll go to the I'll see if I can
get to the vending machine. Yeah, you know what? Hey, that's a smart idea. There's probably some kind of cold pump in there that'll have something right? Because usually. Vending machine has a coolant pumps that you could pull. Yeah, all. Right. Grab that. Yeah, it's ruined. So that doesn't require a roll. OK, All right. And I will bring that over. Hand it over. Really.
I listen. If you need me to do something, just tell me. Well, we're going to need somebody that's going to be pretty dexterous, good with, good with the reflexes, something like that to help catch the body if it falls, as well as to help cool the body down. Lumen Pass, you and I are going to have to all disconnect them in the proper order. This isn't just like a plug and play system, right? If we don't do this right, they could go. Yeah, you. Got it.
This is so fucked. I don't get why you'd need this for a ball and a cup game. Right, but what are they putting in this game? My sister. I. Thought Twins. Fuck. So wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. There's another one of you, my sister. Let's disconnect them first and then we can ask questions once. They're not going to fry their brain out. OK, OK, OK. OK. Yeah. Yeah, let's do. Now, Evan, do you want to use all of your inspiration right now? I don't have any, yeah. You do? Yeah, you do.
Wait, No, do you? No, I don't. If someone else wants to give you their inspiration, they can. They are. If you like an inspiration, let's I feel like this is crucial which you you can have my inspiration. Yeah, sorry, I used my last inspiration last night, remember? That's right, you did. Apologies. But it's fair because I've given my inspiration to tell people a lot too. So 100 lbs. 33, yeah.
Oh yeah, yeah, yes, there. The machine Pistons out and follows the disengage procedure correctly and he is released and put in a sitting position in a medical chair. The pod disengages and the lights change to yellow. Thank. You. Hey, hey, hey, hey. It's OK. Where's your where's? Where's your sister? Do you know she's out there? Production facility. And where, where, where is that? That's E Night City. You have to. You have to stop them.
My brother's a madman. All he cares about is money. Is your brother Weiss? Yes. Holy shit dude. I'm Frank Weiss. So you're all family? Yes. Is your, is it? Is it your twin sister or is yes? My my sister and I have twins. Sorry, my sister and I are twins. My brother's just paternal and he never did very well in school. He's kind of an asshole. Yeah, I can tell. I I I gotta ask? What month is it? Oh, it's almost Christmas, my guy. Oh fuck.
Yeah, and they're trying to roll out with some cup and ball bullshit that is like fucking people. Oh, the. Game's bullshit. It's my sister and I need to be together, Mike. When I'm near her, I can hear. I'm deaf. When I'm near her, I can hear and she can see. Oh, is this like psionics? No, it was some cyberware. To save both of our senses, we borrowed the brain pathways of each other. Does the cup and ball represent you 2? Kind of. That's. Just shitty.
Yeah. I mean the the stringing you up thing is real bad but I feel like the cup and ball thing was over the line. It's a bad metaphor, right? Oh my God, this. Kind of an asshole. My sister and I, we were doing good things. We could process so much data. The neck can really, really harm you if you're not careful. But with my sister around, I could even go beyond the Black Wall for a little bit.
And then my brother realized that anyone else connected to it wanted to be I'll handle it. Went mad. Holy fuck. You have to stop my sister. Why is this rich as fuck? I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll wire money. I'll, I'll, I could shit, just just get me to a node and I can do it. OK, shit. All right, well, if someone who's who's here strong enough to carry them. Bloom It's going to step way back. I can help, but not not me. Plus, I got to hold the.
I got to hold the camera. You really should invest in one of those hover cameras. They're not very expensive. Well, I got one in my. Sister and I'll, I'll, I'll try this. Coupon code, anything. Just save my. That's cool, man. That's cool. Yeah, you can. You can rack up a bunch of Subs later. Let's get you out of here. Yeah, let's, let's just move on. BEX, can you keep that coolant pump on them so they can restore
their body temperature? Yeah. So he'll support that with one hand hopefully, and then try to with the other hand support. He. Grabs the cable from the coolant pump and plugs it into a a little port on his side and you see the coolant spread through the machine and go through his veins and the blue kicks through his whole body and his eyes go white. OK, I can walk. What time is it? Yeah, it's almost. Dusk.
Almost dusk. 45 past five. OK, well if you can get me and my sister out of the city, I'll make sure you're paid handsomely. If you can kill my fucking brother, I'll pay you double. Oh, I like that. Well, OK, your sister's in another building and OK. That's where they'd make the fucking machines happy. Company my fucking ass. OK guys, they already said that Weiss left so. Can you tell us where this building is or give us like GPS directions? He said he's. Device and I'll just give you
the pen. Oh yeah, here's my tile. Grabs the tile, pulls a cable from his head that retracts, plugs it in and you see his eyes glaze over and your tile gets an incredibly exact location of the production facility for the happy company. There you go. Hey, could you call us A Dalaman? But don't use my name it. Blinks twice. Hey, are they going to let you walk out of here? I know the lady at the front desk, she's super cool but I don't know if wait. We're going to use the side
door. The guards gave us the code. The camera over there doesn't work. That's smart. That's smart. Next time on no latency side quest. Right, Yes, no, I after. Almost a full year. Yeah, you don't smell great either, but I'm not going to lie. Let. Me, let me check out first. Make sure no one's coming this way. Just confidence walking in. What's in your head? Look, we look like we work here, not the other building. We don't want to be Krampuses
before Christmas, right? Mainframe computer. Hey, is anyone else good at talking? That's you, Mr. Pocket. I'm just following Lumen's lead. Confidence. Let's go. I feel it would impact profits. Roll that high. Roll that high. I, you know, I, I felt stickier. It's, it's fine. It's OK. I think you misunderstand me. All right, so retro, we've got all these red barrels surrounding all of us all over the place. It's a whole clause and effect then. You're Mr. Wise, right?
We need you right over here. I pull out a grenade. When I hear beeping, I start running. I want. To see you spam that. Run. No. It's probably a good time for all of you to run. I think that's insider trading. I I don't think you're supposed to to to do that. Thank you for joining us on our adventure once again here at No Latency.
