[SPEAKER_00]: Project Echo.

00:03.728 --> 00:08.621
[SPEAKER_00]: Your experience of this story may be inhibited by your linear perspective on time.

00:09.142 --> 00:12.411
[SPEAKER_00]: We apologize for the inconvenience.

00:16.060 --> 00:17.905
[SPEAKER_00]: Episode.

00:29.326 --> 00:31.771
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, my watch was hijacked.

00:33.033 --> 00:42.311
[SPEAKER_01]: I used it to jump and the agency deposited me straight into the lobby, and if there is one place you don't want to be, it is the fucking lobby.

00:42.331 --> 00:49.023
[SPEAKER_01]: There's no way to get out and you just have to wait and wait and wait and wait.

00:51.247 --> 00:52.650
[SPEAKER_01]: And so I was looking around.

00:53.069 --> 01:04.203
[SPEAKER_01]: And I have the wall of agents, a memoriam, everyone has devoted themselves to this cause, and they have the director portrait only, it had been replaced with father Christmas, which is fine.

01:04.644 --> 01:11.793
[SPEAKER_01]: Of course, they're the director, but above that, where it should have said Tempest, itinerables.

01:12.915 --> 01:15.839
[SPEAKER_01]: Instead, it said Tempest, Imperium.

01:17.721 --> 01:22.367
[SPEAKER_01]: I left the watch and the skimmer behind.

01:22.904 --> 01:27.130
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I knew they could track them, but I didn't know they could hijack them.

01:28.953 --> 01:32.798
[SPEAKER_01]: You cannot use agency devices to get out of the lobby.

01:34.721 --> 01:40.569
[SPEAKER_01]: But I have two non-agency devices, and I use the kid science project.

01:42.151 --> 01:52.506
[SPEAKER_01]: And holy hell, if there's a bumpy ride, but I got out of there.

01:54.022 --> 02:07.214
[SPEAKER_01]: It was only after I got out of there, and I could really sit that I even remembered the voicemail, and I've really just been sitting here with it in my hand.

02:07.234 --> 02:10.036
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't even know if I want to play it again.

02:10.056 --> 02:12.238
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if I trusted.

02:12.258 --> 02:23.168
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't trust the entity, but it thinks I should, and worse that I will, and I definitely

02:25.392 --> 02:40.008
[SPEAKER_01]: And as terrifying as it is to know that Valentine is maybe the only other person out there still unbored with Tempest-Hiton Airbus, I just have to believe that time does march on.
