Episode description

We’ve seen it time and again, nearly daily: a solution that has no problem. No, I didn’t mispeak. The world is full of solutions to things that aren’t even problems to begin with. But when you’ve only ever known problems, how could you help but think only of solutions? That is the exact situation our character finds himself in in tonight’s story. He is confronted with a number of small, yet unsolvable, problems for which he seems to find one extraordinary and inexplicable solution. Of course, we know there is a name for this: we know the Latin term is Deus Ex Machina.

This story was written by Phillip Clark. It was directed, engineered, and edited by Phillip Clark. The Hidden Archives is created by Phillip Clark, and is produced by Phillip Clark and Nicole Clark of the Rhodes Collaborative Experience LLC.
