1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,359 You're listening to Dumbgeons and Dragons and we'll start in just a moment. 2 00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:18,719 Kavlaran, you are sitting ever so patiently in a chair outside of Nina's office and you've been 3 00:00:18,719 --> 00:00:28,960 waiting here for quite some time for Nina to come back. Her receptionist is busy filling out 4 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:35,039 paperwork at her desk and she looks over to you and says, I swear she told me she was going to be 5 00:00:35,039 --> 00:00:43,120 back in a moment, but that was several hours ago. Did you need a snack? Are you going to just? 6 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,880 A snack would be pretty good. I do have to come clean about something though. 7 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:54,880 I can't remember your name. I know I've been here all day and it's gotten past the point 8 00:00:54,880 --> 00:01:00,640 of where it's like too awkward to ask, but I just, I need, I need to own up. I need to tell 9 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:05,760 you that. No, that's fine. I just, I've lost the plot on this one and I don't love the fact that 10 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:11,359 that's what happened, but that's what happened. I just, I just thank you for your time. Defense 11 00:01:11,359 --> 00:01:16,159 rests. Well, thank you for admitting that and not just calling me. Hey, you like everybody 12 00:01:16,159 --> 00:01:21,120 else does. I'm Gwenn de la Veer. Gwenn de la Veer. You know what? I should have remembered 13 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:26,880 that. That's my sister's name. Well, it is a very common, it was a very common name for about a year. 14 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:33,120 Everybody was named Gwenn de la Veer. It just rolls off the tongue. It just has this sweetness 15 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:39,040 to it. Ah, yes. But thank you for asking. I'm going to go get you a snack. I can go see what 16 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,360 they have down in the kitchen there. Maybe there's some nice pastries. Somebody, I heard 17 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,040 somebody maybe brought in some donuts. I'm going to go see about that. I mean, I do love a 18 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:52,400 pastry. That would be delightful. And she rounds the corner and you hear like a little, oh, 19 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:58,240 and then some whispers. She's got goose in the hall. She's going straight to HR. No donuts for 20 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:04,320 you. Sorry. And then two pairs of quick footsteps going back down the hallway 21 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:11,920 towards the kitchen. Nevermind no HR. This is like an office romance. Yeah. And Kav does 22 00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:17,840 hear this, but he's still getting over the fact that he actually like owned up to not knowing 23 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:23,040 Gwenda la Veer's name and is like super proud of himself for like being an adult. So he doesn't 24 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:27,440 really pay that much attention to it. Like he hears it, but doesn't click for him as to like 25 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:32,960 what is it, what it is, say a moment of recognition. And then you go back to just 26 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:37,520 staring at the wall on the other side of the room. I go back and I'm like, it's 27 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,680 Gwenda la Veer, Gwenda la Veer. Got to remember Gwenda la Veer. 28 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:35,920 Gwenda la Veer comes back into the room with a donut for you. And she says, I didn't know what 29 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:42,320 your favorite was. So I brought a couple. This one's like, oh, you want both of them. 30 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:46,800 Okay. Well, I mean, I don't have to have both of them, but like I don't really have a favorite. 31 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:54,400 They're all kind of my favorite. I got a Crueller and I got just this Long John 32 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:59,040 and it's got like this cream inside. I think they called it like an Eclair, something like 33 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:05,040 that. Thought you take your pick or you have them both. I can go get some more and no 34 00:04:05,039 --> 00:04:11,199 problem. I saw Nina and she said she'd be here any moment now. 35 00:04:11,199 --> 00:04:15,199 You saw Nina? Yeah. She was passing by the kitchen, 36 00:04:15,199 --> 00:04:25,120 said she got swept away with a big meeting upstairs. And she'd be right down to see you. 37 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,480 I'm going to go back to the kitchen, get myself a donut because I should have brought 38 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:37,280 three. Foolish me. And she exits the room. Cav puts like one of the donuts on the desk 39 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:44,240 and like completely just inhales the other one. And then like not even a full minute 40 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:50,480 goes by and he like reaches back over for the second donut. After another few moments, 41 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:55,280 Oak walks into the room. There you are. You've been gone all day. What are you doing? 42 00:04:55,280 --> 00:05:00,880 Well, I've been waiting for Nina, but apparently she had gone into her office earlier, 43 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,120 but then never came out. But then Gwenda LaVere ran into her in the hallway. Is there like a 44 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:11,280 second entrance to Nina's office that I don't know about? No. So then she probably wasn't 45 00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:16,720 here at all then. She probably wasn't here at all. She probably just gave you the slip. 46 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:21,040 Gotcha. Gotcha. Yeah. Would you say that's like a characteristic of her personality, 47 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:30,720 like deceitful? Well, I mean, avoiding people happens a lot. The deceit factor, I mean, 48 00:05:31,280 --> 00:05:38,800 I can't prove or deny if she has told me the truth when she is around in her office or not. 49 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,640 I just assume she's telling me the truth. All right. I mean, yeah, like, you know, 50 00:05:43,519 --> 00:05:51,599 make someone prove you wrong, right? Yeah. Wait, what are you going to ask her? Like, 51 00:05:51,599 --> 00:05:57,759 why are you waiting for five hours? I mean, really, I just wanted to follow up on like the 52 00:05:57,759 --> 00:06:05,360 finances. But I think that's why she's avoiding me. So maybe just go back and look at the 53 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:11,599 books. Is that a better follow the money, follow the paper trail? Sure. Yeah, we can 54 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:16,080 follow the books. I mean, we've checked the books time and time again, and they look fine. 55 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:21,520 I told you the books are perfect. I did them. I heard like a whisper of like a second set of 56 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:29,920 books. A second set of books. One that perhaps that would be fraud. Kavlaran. That would be 57 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:37,439 fraud. Yeah. And like probably a pretty good one. Wait, is that what you're here 58 00:06:37,439 --> 00:06:42,319 investigating? I mean, I'm investigating a lot of things, but absolutely that's part of it. 59 00:06:43,199 --> 00:06:49,920 You didn't tell me you were investigating fraud. Well, I mean, somebody walks by the 60 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:54,480 office and looks in with just raises an eyebrow and keeps going. You're gonna have 61 00:06:54,480 --> 00:07:00,720 to keep it down a little bit. Sorry. Sorry. It's okay. It's okay. Yeah, there's there was like 62 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,800 a few different things I was supposed to check out while I was here. That was just one of them. 63 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:15,839 Okay, so if Nina is being deceitful to you, what makes you think she's even gonna tell you? 64 00:07:15,839 --> 00:07:21,839 Are you trying to catch her in a lie? Are you trying to? What's your game plan here? 65 00:07:21,839 --> 00:07:27,040 Well, I had a cousin that was really good at like reading people, you know, like those cold 66 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:35,120 reads that like the charlatans do on innocent people. I had a cousin who like showed me how 67 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:41,600 to do that a little bit and I thought I could get something from her just by being in the same 68 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,759 rooms or asking her some questions, seeing the way she reacts, that sort of thing. Just take 69 00:07:45,759 --> 00:07:54,720 some mental notes of like, what's up with Nina? What's up with Nina? Well, 70 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,680 I don't think she's gonna come back. No, it doesn't seem to be that way. Yeah, so 71 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:07,199 we could continue to wait here. He has sat down beside you at this point, not on a chair, 72 00:08:07,199 --> 00:08:13,199 because there isn't another chair, but on like a little side table. He was just sitting up there 73 00:08:13,199 --> 00:08:18,079 across his legs. He's not just doing a weird wall squat beside him. No, he has to kind of 74 00:08:18,079 --> 00:08:22,560 hover because it's not going to be able to support his weight. So he's holding it, but 75 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:27,920 just barely. So we could go and we can come back. We could get you. I mean, clearly 76 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:33,360 you've got a little you've got a little cream on just like in your mustache there. 77 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:40,879 Yeah. Clearly you had some donuts. I mean, some is a little presumptuous. Yeah, I had to. 78 00:08:40,879 --> 00:08:45,039 Yeah. If only there was something we could do to figure out this solution for you. I guess 79 00:08:45,039 --> 00:08:49,440 I'll just go back to my office and not do anything nefarious. I mean, do you need company? 80 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:54,560 He gets up and he starts to leave. Well, I guess if you want to come, like, I don't know. 81 00:08:54,560 --> 00:08:58,560 I mean, sitting here has been you're the one doing the investigating waste of time. 82 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:05,680 Is there any like storage rooms or anything where like old files are kept? Oh, yeah. Yeah, 83 00:09:05,680 --> 00:09:10,560 of course there is. I haven't shown you the storage closet downstairs. Yeah, come on with me. 84 00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:16,800 Yeah. So Kava totally has just like forgotten about the cabinet. And as he starts to follow 85 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:23,360 Oak down the hallway, he sees like an identical looking cabinet behind Gwenda Levere's desk. 86 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:32,159 And it like stops him dead in his tracks. Oh, what I just forgot Gwenda Levere said that Nina 87 00:09:32,159 --> 00:09:37,759 was coming back. So maybe I should just stay a little longer because like if she does come back, 88 00:09:37,759 --> 00:09:42,240 I'd hate to miss her. Oh, yeah, sure. Yeah. Do you want somebody to just join somebody to 89 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:49,120 wait with you? Like I've finished all of our paperwork for the next three days. So I could 90 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:53,919 just go home or I could stay and hang out. I mean, Mom's probably going to be expecting 91 00:09:53,919 --> 00:09:58,480 me soon. It's getting close to clock out time and she expects me five minutes later. 92 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:04,399 So sure. Yeah, sure. Yeah. Well, OK. Yeah. You know what? Well, we'll catch up tomorrow 93 00:10:04,399 --> 00:10:07,120 since like all that since all that paperwork's already done. 94 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,360 And I'll just wait here a little longer and then I'll probably call it a day as well. 95 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:18,560 All right. Well, it's good seeing you. I guess I'll just I'll go lock up the office. 96 00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:23,200 I'll make sure all your stuff's ready to go in there. I'll put your lunch back in your bag. 97 00:10:24,560 --> 00:10:29,600 And yeah, I guess that's it for me. Have a good night. 98 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,200 All right. Yeah, you too. I'll just. Yeah, I'll talk to you tomorrow. 99 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:37,520 OK, bye now goes back to the one chair and like sits down and just 100 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:42,960 waits a minute till everything's like calm and quiet and then goes and tries that door handle. 101 00:10:43,519 --> 00:10:50,400 The door handle is unlocked. It's a little it's got a little stick to it, but the door opens 102 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,440 and then it bumps into the desk. Obviously. Yeah. Slip in and close 103 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,200 the door behind me as best I can here without making too much of a racket. 104 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:05,200 And beeline straight for that cabinet. Sure. And by beeline, you mean awkwardly 105 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:10,639 move around the large desk inside this very time. I was thinking actually more of a direct 106 00:11:10,639 --> 00:11:17,600 like as the crow flies situation. So step onto a chair, onto the desk, off the desk. 107 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,919 Yeah. Yeah. Love it. OK, great. Are there any windows in this office? 108 00:11:21,919 --> 00:11:24,399 I can't remember. No, there are not. 109 00:11:24,399 --> 00:11:31,199 There is a poster of a nice tropical beach set up on one of the walls, but no, no windows. 110 00:11:31,199 --> 00:11:33,600 Oh, I really hope there's an escape tunnel behind that poster. 111 00:11:34,399 --> 00:11:37,200 And a new frame. Yeah. 112 00:11:38,159 --> 00:11:40,960 Nina's been taking out one bit of drywall at a time. 113 00:11:42,399 --> 00:11:49,519 Yeah, you go and you you're examining the cabinet and the two lower drawers are locked. 114 00:11:49,519 --> 00:11:53,680 The top three, you're able to open them and file through them if you would like, 115 00:11:53,680 --> 00:11:58,960 but the bottom two are locked and secured. Quick look through the top three. 116 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:05,759 Anything interesting in there at all? Mostly seems like personnel files and documents, 117 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:10,560 incident reports, that sort of thing. Nothing, nothing out of the ordinary, 118 00:12:10,560 --> 00:12:13,759 just at a quick glance through them. Can I flip through Oak's personnel 119 00:12:13,759 --> 00:12:15,200 file real quick? Sure, absolutely. 120 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,200 Just like I want to see like the one pager. 121 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:23,120 It just says Oak, stellar employee, five stars, not likely to get a raise ever, 122 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:28,159 overachiever and never pushes back, quite reliant on his mother. 123 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:33,840 Also, mother barred from City Hall. I need to know what happened with that. 124 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,080 I'll have to ask him next time we're out for boys night. 125 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:41,519 Yeah, makes a little mental note to ask Oak about mother being barred from City Hall. 126 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:48,799 And looks around. I would love to find like a key for these bottom drawers. 127 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:54,960 Any role investigation, any likely hiding spots that you might leave a key? 128 00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:01,840 Let's see here. That is a 17, but my investigation is not great. 129 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:07,200 So it's a 15 overall. OK, you move through all of the 130 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,160 upper cabinets on this drawer. You move through all of the drawers 131 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:17,840 in the desk, lift the papers. It does not appear that you can find a key 132 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,240 that would fit this drawer. There are no keys in sight. 133 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:28,400 So leading you to believe perhaps that if there were a key, it would be on Nina's person. 134 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,640 Sure. I mean, do I just bust it open? 135 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,840 I don't feel like that's a great approach, but like desperate times. 136 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,120 No, it's not that desperate. I'm going to get out of the 137 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,000 office before anybody comes back to find me there. 138 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:46,960 OK, you climb back over and open the door and as you pull it shut behind you, 139 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:52,879 you hear footsteps coming back down the hall and Gwenda LaVere comes around the corner just as the 140 00:13:52,879 --> 00:13:59,360 door latches. What do you do to act nonchAlydint as she comes around the corner? 141 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:05,120 Actually, Cav just puts his hand up to his ear in the door and he's like, 142 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:06,639 I thought I heard someone in there, but. 143 00:14:07,759 --> 00:14:09,360 Ah, you're still here. Hey. 144 00:14:10,560 --> 00:14:14,480 Hey, Gwenda LaVere. I was just, I thought I heard someone in there, but 145 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,360 you said there was no any.
