[0.0s] Dumbgeons and Dragons begins in a moment.
[6.0s] Alydin, it's the end of the day and you're locking up the Magic Closet.
[11.5s] Oh yeah.
[12.0s] It's been a while. You've seen the two that tried to pull the wool over your eyes and steal some goods from you the other day.
[23.0s] You've seen them walking by the store. They look very sheepish.
[26.0s] I make extreme eye contact and I do like that I point at my eyes and I point at them. They know.
[32.0s] They know. Any time that you do that to them, they quickly turn tail.
[37.0s] Like they don't even look like they're trying to come in and do bad things.
[40.0s] Like they're just walking up the nerve to try and like come by the things that they actually wanted.
[47.0s] But now they're scared off and we're probably going to wait till Bizard comes back.
[51.0s] I've done sketches of their faces and put them up next to the till.
[54.0s] Of course you have.
[56.0s] Don't serve these people here.
[58.0s] Yeah, no, no. They shot a fan.
[60.0s] Bizard's going to come back and there's going to be like 50 people up on this wall where previously there might have been one.
[66.0s] Trying to steal from me.
[67.0s] I don't think any of them have actually stolen from you.
[70.0s] There were probably only the two, but everybody who walks in I feel like you're just-
[74.0s] No, no. I want to be a good business person.
[77.0s] Of course.
[78.0s] But you've gotten really good at sketching people so like there's that.
[82.0s] You could be a street character artist now.
[85.0s] I've been drawing them like you're French girls.
[87.0s] Yeah.
[88.0s] I am.
[90.0s] I'm feeling pretty good about my situation here in the Magic Shop here.
[95.0s] You've been doing a great job and you're heading off to check on the kids who have, as we previously found out,
[102.0s] have been moved around the city in the three different locations.
[105.0s] There's the school.
[107.0s] There's a shed, which is where Tally is staying with a small contingent of the children.
[114.0s] And the mill, you being still the eldest of all of these kids, where do you go first when you're doing these rents?
[122.0s] I think I go check in at the shed because Tally as my number two, my protege.
[131.0s] Yeah, she would think of her as a protege.
[137.0s] Like it goes Bizard and then me and then Tally.
[142.0s] I wasn't going to say it.
[144.0s] We were all thinking it.
[146.0s] Just to double check that things are going all right and just to check in with who I left in charge.
[156.0s] Of course.
[158.0s] You make your way through the streets and the shed isn't too far from the stables where you previously were.
[167.0s] It maintained its form at the very least after the monsters attacked and days since several of the guards who knew that you were
[175.0s] staying there did come by and like board up the door that was busted open from when that monster came out.
[182.0s] So there's no more getting back into that cellar, at least not in its current state.
[187.0s] But you make your way to the shed.
[189.0s] And as you're walking up to the shed, it's getting towards evening hours.
[193.0s] You hear a soft lullaby being sung from the shed and it sounds like Tally's voice and like some of the kids are singing along.
[203.0s] I just I I loitered the door for a minute because this is this is a nice moment and I don't want to spoil it.
[211.0s] And I'm proud of Tally for keeping the kids like, you know, at the very least entertain.
[216.0s] They're all not just sitting around looking at each other being like, I wonder when the next monsters going to destroy our home.
[222.0s] You hang at the door and the tune is familiar.
[226.0s] It's it's a lullaby tune.
[228.0s] So I mean, all songs basically kind of sound like what?
[234.0s] Like that kind of. Yeah, I thought you were starting off some good King Wentz.
[244.0s] Very similar start, but on that third note, it deviates.
[247.0s] So you got to watch it. Yeah.
[249.0s] But as you're listening, you catch kind of the tail end of this song and the words as you go up to the door become more clear.
[259.0s] And the words you hear at the end of this song are so stay with me.
[265.0s] Don't go astray or in the night you'll fade away.
[269.0s] For once you hear his lonesome song, the banjo man won't wait too long.
[277.0s] What the fuck?
[281.0s] Dumbgeons and Dragons is a D&D actual play podcast.
[285.0s] And I'm your Dungeon Master Russ More, he him.
[288.0s] Also joining me today is Amy More as Alydin, she her.
[292.0s] And then I heard what you were singing.
[294.0s] Tom Laird as Kavlaran Goldweave, he him.
[297.0s] Oh, no, you mixed up your cyanide tablet.
[299.0s] And Kyle Claset as Bizard the Wizard, he him.
[302.0s] I bet they try to call it a work pod, huh?
[304.0s] Dumbgeons and Dragons is a Patreon supported podcast.
[307.0s] And you can join us today at patreon.com slash Tom Dragoncast.
[311.0s] There's a seven day free trial and a whole bunch of episodes for you to listen to.
[315.0s] We hope to see you over there.
[317.0s] And now fuck it. Let's play.
[324.0s] Bench and Cav.
[326.0s] So previously you two were at the...
[332.0s] Had one of the most uncomfortable dinner experiences of Kavlaran's life.
[338.0s] You guys were at the cured pig.
[341.0s] Let's say you spent at least part of the day there.
[344.0s] You've finished up.
[346.0s] Bizarre, your mum has brought the bill.
[350.0s] And everything OK?
[354.0s] Cav, it's been lovely to meet you.
[357.0s] Super nice to meet you too.
[359.0s] Yes. Well, I hope to see you again, Bizarre.
[361.0s] I expect to see you again before you go heading back to Vintersmouth.
[365.0s] And of course I will think on what we talked about earlier.
[370.0s] And I will formulate just how I'm feeling in that state about coming back to Vintersmouth.
[378.0s] And in fairness, I will consider going to see Dad.
[385.0s] I don't... I'm not...
[388.0s] Don't... It's OK.
[390.0s] Distress yourself, OK?
[392.0s] Believe me, I will not, Mother.
[394.0s] But, thank you.
[396.0s] There's a call from the kitchen in the back.
[398.0s] She says, I've got to go. I'll see you very soon.
[401.0s] She gives you a big hug and says, I love you.
[404.0s] And then heads back into the kitchen.
[406.0s] Leaving the two of you to finish up at the table and decide where you both need to go next.
[415.0s] So, Kav, do they give you a pretty good stipend?
[419.0s] Because, you know, this seems like a really good business lunch to talk about what we're going to bring to the officials, right?
[427.0s] I love where your head's at, B. Love it.
[431.0s] Yeah, the stipend's not great, but it'll cover our lunch. Absolutely.
[437.0s] Sick.
[438.0s] Let me pull out the Contra chips.
[444.0s] So, I've got to swing by the Comptroller's office.
[448.0s] You're welcome to come with, but it might be pretty boring.
[452.0s] OK, let's see.
[455.0s] The library is kind of in the opposite direction, so I'm going to stick with you for now.
[461.0s] And, you know, I know the librarians, so I'll be able to just...
[465.0s] They'll let me in. It'll be fine.
[468.0s] OK, cool.
[469.0s] Yeah, let's head on to the Comptroller's office.
[472.0s] I don't know. Working for the mayor has kind of shown me a little bit of behind the curtain of the, you know, red tape and everything.
[478.0s] And I have a slight interest in it, especially if I'm going to continue to be a business owner.
[483.0s] Yeah, absolutely.
[485.0s] All right. Let's, I mean, we'll settle up here.
[488.0s] We'll head on our way and spill the beans, I guess.
[492.0s] Sounds good.
[494.0s] Dine and dash on your mom.
[497.0s] Yes, by settle up here, I mean run out the door.
[500.0s] Yes, they'll never find us.
[505.0s] You head off to, I guess, question for Cav.
[510.0s] Does Cav have...
[511.0s] Yes, I did get a receipt.
[512.0s] Great. That was the first question.
[514.0s] You submit your receipts. Make sure you get them in by end of day on Friday.
[517.0s] Otherwise, the whole thing just falls apart.
[519.0s] You have to wait the whole... Yeah, yeah.
[522.0s] But my real question was, does Cav have an office here?
[527.0s] Cav doesn't have his own office.
[530.0s] He's got like a cubicle amongst a wall of other cubicles.
[535.0s] I bet they try to call it a work pod, huh?
[538.0s] You know, they like to call it just your workstation, but like it ain't fooling anyone.
[544.0s] We enter into what's familiar to Cav, but he hasn't been here, obviously, in a few months.
[552.0s] What is time?
[554.0s] And bizarre, this is probably not a building that you've been in.
[560.0s] Certainly not.
[562.0s] Part of the many city official buildings that surround the King's Tower.
[569.0s] You enter in and there's a series of long winding hallways,
[574.0s] and you get back to the auditor general's office, the comptroller's office, and several others.
[582.0s] So there is a wall of cubicles.
[585.0s] And as you're walking by, there are several people working, writing in ledgers,
[590.0s] and a couple of them kind of look up and back down to their books.
[594.0s] And you walk by one and like there are papers stacked to the ceiling on this desk.
[600.0s] Cav, it's your desk.
[604.0s] Yep, make yourself at home. There's a chair around here somewhere.
[609.0s] Okay, should have brought Oak with you.
[612.0s] Oh my god, he would make, he would just, this would all disappear and it would be a dream.
[617.0s] Well, kind of edge between the piles and everything and almost knock one over and I stabilize it.
[624.0s] I mean, that one was there before I left, but like, all right.
[628.0s] These other two, they're new.
[630.0s] So do you have to do all this right now or how does this work?
[636.0s] I don't think so.
[638.0s] I think, you know, more pressing issues than this.
[641.0s] I was just making sure that my ficus was alive.
[644.0s] George, thanks for watering it.
[646.0s] No problem.
[648.0s] Cav, this one's dated a year ago.
[652.0s] Yeah, it's fine. I'll get to it.
[655.0s] Yeah, I'm not very good at my job.
[657.0s] It's somebody appealing the tax rate on their, okay.
[661.0s] I mean, that's not something I can personally solve.
[664.0s] I just need to like, give it the old once over.
[667.0s] But yeah, it's just, you know, other things took priority.
[669.0s] There's a tap on your shoulder, Cav, and a clearing of a throat.
[673.0s] And you turn around and somebody recognized her name is Stacey and she's got another stack of papers.
[678.0s] And she says, oh, it's good to see you, Cav.
[680.0s] And she piles it on top of one of the lower piles of papers.
[684.0s] It says, we've just been keeping these here for you until you get back.
[687.0s] Take your time.
[688.0s] Okay, well, I'm not really like back yet.
[691.0s] Just a quick pop in, just to stop over.
[693.0s] You're here though.
[694.0s] So how do you do?
[695.0s] If you could just take care of this, because it has fallen over a couple of times
[699.0s] and we've tried to put it back together,
[701.0s] but it feels like there's going to be some work in to sort out all this paperwork.
[705.0s] Yeah, all the king's horses and all the king's men, you know.
[708.0s] Oh, speaking of the king's men, is Wiggins in?
[712.0s] I saw him earlier. He was doing his rounds.
[714.0s] So if he's not in his office, he can't be too far.
[716.0s] All right, cool. Thanks, Stacey.
[718.0s] I just got to, I'm going to take my buddy here.
[721.0s] Oh, sorry, Stacey, Bazaard, Bazaard, Stacey.
[724.0s] Pleasure to meet you.
[725.0s] Nice to meet you.
[726.0s] Shake your hand.
[727.0s] Yeah.
[728.0s] Are you also in auditing?
[730.0s] No.
[731.0s] Are you new here?
[732.0s] I don't do this job and I'm not doing anything here.
[734.0s] Yeah.
[735.0s] Okay.
[736.0s] Well, that's fair.
[737.0s] Okay, well, it's good to meet you.
[738.0s] We'll probably see you around.
[740.0s] Cav, great to have you back.
[742.0s] I'll let everybody know that you're here.
[744.0s] No, I'm just popping in.
[746.0s] Cav is here.
[747.0s] Just to stop over, just a little.
[748.0s] George.
[749.0s] How do you do?
[750.0s] Cav is here.
[751.0s] Oh, no.
[752.0s] I spotted his ficus.
[753.0s] He just thanked me.
[754.0s] Thanks, George.
[755.0s] Anytime.
[756.0s] All right, let's go try to catch Wiggins.
[759.0s] Come on.
[760.0s] You head out of the cubicle area down the hallway.
[762.0s] You pass by a lovely woman who looks and says, Cav, I heard you were back.
[768.0s] No, just ever so briefly.
[771.0s] Just stopping in.
[772.0s] So excited to have you back.
[773.0s] And she keeps going.
[774.0s] Again, still not back.
[776.0s] And you make your way to Comptroller Wiggins' office.
[780.0s] The door's slightly ajar.
[783.0s] You hear some grumbling inside.
[785.0s] It sounds like one voice.
[787.0s] But it does sound familiar.
[788.0s] It sounds like Comptroller Wiggins.
[791.0s] Is now a good time?
[793.0s] Oh, yeah, yeah.
[794.0s] Come on in.
[795.0s] Come on in.
[796.0s] Who's that?
[797.0s] Oh, Cav.
[798.0s] Cav, I heard you were back.
[799.0s] Come on.
[800.0s] It's great to have you.
[801.0s] Come on in.
[802.0s] Just here for just a scooch of time.
[804.0s] Oh, yeah, sure.
[805.0s] Come on in.
[806.0s] Come on in.
[807.0s] Hey, you got a new friend there.
[808.0s] Oh, yes.
[809.0s] Sorry.
[810.0s] Wiggins, this is my friend Bazaar.
[811.0s] Bazaar, this is Wiggins.
[812.0s] Nice to meet you.
[813.0s] Great to meet you.
[814.0s] Great to meet you.
[815.0s] Come on in.
[816.0s] You're looking to get into auditing, I hear.
[817.0s] Or perhaps just paperwork in general.
[820.0s] No, I'm a business owner.
[823.0s] So I'm...
[824.0s] So you're going to submit paperwork?
[825.0s] He runs the local magic shop.
[827.0s] In Vintersmouth.
[828.0s] Oh, great.
[829.0s] Oh, yes.
[830.0s] No, not here.
[831.0s] No, in Vintersmouth, where I've been for several months.
[833.0s] Yes.
[834.0s] Right.
[835.0s] You were in Vintersmouth.
[836.0s] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[837.0s] Still am.
[838.0s] Got to go back there.
[839.0s] Just stopping in.
[840.0s] It's going around that you're back and that you're going to take care of that huge
[842.6s] pile of paper on your desk.
[844.0s] I mean, I'm just...
[845.0s] I'm really not.
[846.0s] I'll level with you.
[847.0s] I'm not going to do it.
[848.0s] I mean, half of that is correct, Cav.
[849.0s] You are back, but just that latter half, right?
[852.0s] Yeah.
[853.0s] Yeah.
[854.0s] Just...
[855.0s] Easy misunderstanding.
[856.0s] Quick little pop-in.
[857.0s] Just back for a sec.
[858.0s] Okay.
[859.0s] Let's just...
[860.0s] All seriousness, it's great to see you back.
[861.0s] But your last report said that you didn't find anything, so I didn't expect to see you
[866.8s] back for quite some time.
[869.4s] Yep.
[870.4s] Mm-hmm.
[871.4s] What are you doing here?
[872.4s] Oh, well, things have changed.
[875.4s] So you are back.
[876.4s] Nope.
[877.4s] Nope.
[878.4s] Not in that department.
[879.4s] In the previous department, in the didn't find anything department.
[882.4s] Really?
[883.4s] I'm just going to skoosh this door closed for a sec.
[886.0s] Oh, yeah, of course.
[887.3s] Come on in.
[888.3s] Come on in.
[889.3s] Have a seat.
[890.3s] Have a couple chairs.
[891.3s] See?
[892.3s] Paper work everywhere.
[893.3s] It's just how we do it here.
[894.3s] Do you need coffee?
[895.3s] Or water?
[896.3s] Or something?
[897.3s] I'm good.
[898.3s] Coffee sounds good.
[899.3s] Great, great, great, great, great.
[900.3s] He goes and moves another stack of papers and there's a coffee machine that looks
[903.4s] like it's been off for a while and pours it into the cup.
[907.8s] There's no steam coming off of it and hands it to you.
[910.4s] It is cold.
[911.4s] Thank you.
[912.4s] You're welcome.
[913.4s] I hold it.
[914.4s] That's official city coffee.
[915.4s] It doesn't get any better than that.
[917.4s] It really does.
[919.2s] OK, so yeah, in the things have changed in the not finding anything department, I just
[924.6s] got a little little something here and I reach into my bag and I pull out the books
[930.6s] and I like slam them down on the table and say, oh, Wiggins, you're going to you're
[936.3s] just going to love reading this.
[938.2s] And he sits down in his desk and flips them open, positions his glasses at the
[944.6s] end of his nose and says, oh, my.
[949.8s] We'll be right back.
[953.8s] It's the middle.
[956.4s] So this week has been a good week.
[958.9s] Everybody lists something good that's happened to them.
[961.6s] I moved into my new house.
[963.0s] Yeah.
[965.0s] Oh, Tom shouldn't have gone first.
[966.8s] That's a really good one.
[968.3s] Yeah, sorry.
[969.3s] Yeah, sorry. We'll cut yours to the end, Tom, but that is very exciting.
[975.5s] You have gay.
[976.5s] I'm getting the winter tires changed on both of our vehicles.
[979.5s] Nice. Great.
[980.8s] Yeah. Thank God, because if he didn't do it, nobody would.
[985.0s] I got some new Halloween decorations finally up in my game.
[988.1s] Not so boring outside of the house.
[990.4s] Oh, I fixed my window that I smashed because I'm a little slugger.
[994.0s] Oh, yeah.
[996.5s] Dennis, the menace to yourself.
[999.1s] Um, I learned that it only takes me 15 minutes to clean a whole thing of liquid yogurt out of a backpack.
[1006.7s] Oh, information you didn't want to learn, but you did.
[1009.5s] And you did it.
[1010.5s] I know.
[1011.5s] Good for you in a pinch.
[1012.9s] You get some yogurt in your backpack.
[1015.0s] You know, it's going to take 15 minutes.
[1016.8s] OK, it's not bad.
[1019.1s] Zero follow up questions.
[1020.3s] What if it's Greek yogurt?
[1021.5s] Oh, see, I said zero.
[1023.1s] Greek yogurt would be easier because it's not liquid in every way.
[1026.8s] You can scoop more of it.
[1028.3s] There was cooling.
[1029.6s] Yeah.
[1031.5s] Yeah. Cut it down to seven minutes for Greek yogurt.
[1033.7s] That's my guess. Yeah.
[1036.9s] But all these great things are happening.
[1038.7s] It feels like there's just some cool vibes in the air right now.
[1042.4s] And we just want to pass that along to you.
[1044.8s] And hopefully you're having a great week.
[1046.5s] Especially to our patron, who this episode is dedicated to.
[1051.3s] Yeah.
[1052.3s] Yeah. Oh, my God.
[1053.4s] The look on Russ's face was great.
[1056.8s] I was on the edge of doing it and Carla came in.
[1059.6s] That's one of the great things that happened this week.
[1063.9s] This person who Russ has at his fingertips.
[1067.9s] Yeah, Russ has prepared.
[1069.9s] He's just so excited to say their name.
[1071.9s] I know. He's bouncing up and down.
[1075.1s] You've got to slow down and take a deep breath.
[1078.4s] You don't even know the name that I'm going to give you.
[1081.0s] I know. I'm so excited.
[1082.0s] Well, you keep it a secret.
[1083.9s] Yeah, we don't even know.
[1085.1s] I don't like to tell everybody so that you're surprised.
[1088.1s] It's in a sealed envelope.
[1090.3s] All right. Got the envelope.
[1092.3s] I just sound like you like we're spitting.
[1097.5s] That's how you get an envelope open.
[1099.0s] You got to make it. You got to get a little lip on there.
[1101.1s] You got to get a little lip on there.
[1103.3s] So you can see through it a little bit, almost.
[1105.8s] That's right.
[1106.7s] Yes. Thank you to this week's patron, William F. Kirkwood.
[1112.7s] Thanks, William.
[1115.7s] Thanks for being one more wonderful thing
[1118.4s] that happened this week.
[1120.4s] Absolutely.
[1121.2s] Also, your name sounds like a movie star name.
[1123.1s] It really does.
[1124.0s] Yeah, the F that really throws it in there.
[1125.8s] I think so.
[1126.9s] But also, it's just like real solid names.
[1129.7s] Yeah.
[1131.0s] Like when you see that name come up fourth in the credits,
[1133.8s] you're like, he's the bad guy because he's very recognizable.
[1137.6s] So good.
[1140.2s] Thank you, William, for being the bad guy in our movie.
[1144.7s] Absolutely.
[1145.5s] Yeah.
[1146.9s] We hope you're having a great week,
[1148.4s] and we hope you're enjoying this episode.
[1149.7s] We'll get you back to it.
[1150.6s] Thanks so much for being here.
[1151.8s] We love you, bye.
[1152.9s] We love you, bye.
[1154.8s] I wish all your backpacks are not filled with you.
[1162.4s] And we're going to cut back to Vintersmouth.
[1167.3s] Kick us off.
[1169.4s] Kicking us off by kicking that door open.
[1172.1s] The children scream.
[1173.4s] Ah!
[1174.0s] What was that?
[1175.5s] Hi, you guys.
[1176.4s] Hi.
[1176.9s] Oh, surprise.
[1179.0s] You scared us so much.
[1180.6s] I'm so sorry.
[1181.9s] I was just so excited to see you guys.
[1184.7s] It's great to see you.
[1185.9s] How was the day at the Magic Closet?
[1188.4s] Oh, pretty good.
[1190.0s] That's good.
[1190.7s] Business is booming.
[1191.9s] Oh, fantastic.
[1193.3s] Bizard is going to love that he put you in charge.
[1196.1s] I saw you put so many new pictures up today.
[1199.4s] It was only one extra, and she knew why.
[1204.4s] She knew.
[1205.1s] I'm sure she did.
[1206.0s] She did.
[1206.6s] Yeah, you're doing a great job.
[1208.5s] Yeah, yeah, speaking about jobs,
[1210.5s] can I just talk to you outside the shack?
[1212.3s] Oh, sure.
[1212.8s] Just over here a little bit.
[1213.9s] You guys, you just hang out, OK, you guys?
[1216.3s] Probably ring around the rosy.
[1217.9s] Now sing it creepy like, no.
[1220.4s] Ring around the rosy.
[1223.2s] I pulled Tally outside.
[1225.0s] Yeah, what's up, boss?
[1226.0s] And she pulls the door closed behind her.
[1228.7s] What's up?
[1229.7s] What's up?
[1230.2s] What's up?
[1230.9s] What's up?
[1231.9s] So walking up, hear you singing to the kids.
[1235.5s] Oh, that's what we were doing.
[1236.4s] Oh, fantastic.
[1237.3s] Love it.
[1237.9s] I was in that moment so proud of you.
[1241.9s] I was like, look at Tally taking on all
[1245.2s] of this responsibility.
[1247.5s] Just taking care of these kids.
[1250.8s] And then I heard what you were singing.
[1253.0s] OK.
[1254.2s] Oh, you just heard the Banjo Man song.
[1257.9s] Yeah, no, that's a new song that we heard.
[1261.0s] We were down by the docks there.
[1266.0s] Why did you take the kids down at the docks?
[1268.2s] They've got to get out.
[1269.0s] You've got to stretch their legs every now and again.
[1270.8s] You can't keep them in this shed all day long.
[1273.0s] Don't bring them down to the docks.
[1274.5s] I'm pulling my hair out, Alydin.
[1276.0s] I'm pulling my hair out.
[1277.1s] I've been home with the kids all day.
[1280.0s] Now I guess you know how I felt.
[1281.7s] I just needed to get out for a little fresh air.
[1284.4s] Listen, next time have them play around the pond.
[1287.7s] Don't bring them down to the docks.
[1290.4s] OK, anyways, we were down at the docks.
[1292.7s] And there was this lovely man singing a bunch of songs.
[1295.9s] So we all pulled up and gathered around.
[1298.0s] And he was doing a great job.
[1299.6s] And then he came to this one, the Banjo Man.
[1302.0s] And there was a tale about how there's some missing children.
[1307.0s] And it was a little bit of a spooky, scary ghost story
[1310.2s] more than anything.
[1311.6s] But then taught us this lullaby to sing about the Banjo Man.
[1315.7s] And we really loved it.
[1317.5s] Felt really calming.
[1320.9s] That song's like real creepy.
[1324.5s] Well, which part did you hear?
[1326.3s] The end.
[1327.3s] Oh, well, I mean, contextually, you probably
[1330.1s] want to hear the-
[1330.7s] OK, well, sing me the whole thing, then.
[1331.5s] OK.
[1331.9s] Convince me.
[1332.7s] OK, you ready?
[1333.5s] I'm ready.
[1334.7s] From your diaphragm, dig deep.
[1336.7s] Hush now, child, and close your eyes.
[1342.2s] The Banjo Man will sing the skies with silver strings
[1349.7s] and gentle sound.
[1352.3s] He'll lead you where no harm is found.
[1356.5s] See, no harm is meaning good.
[1359.3s] He plays for those who dream and weep.
[1363.7s] His melody will soothe your sleep.
[1367.7s] But if you wander far from bed, he'll
[1372.1s] play a song to fill your head.
[1376.6s] Soothing is what the Banjo Man's doing.
[1379.7s] In shadows deep and woods so tall,
[1383.6s] the Banjo Man will softly call.
[1387.6s] With music sweet, your steps he'll
[1390.7s] guide through mist and dark to where he'll hide.
[1395.6s] It's like a game, like peek-a-boo,
[1398.2s] like hide-and-go-seek.
[1399.2s] So he's calling?
[1400.1s] So stay with me.
[1402.1s] Don't go astray.
[1404.5s] Or in the night, you'll fade away.
[1408.4s] For once you hear his lonesome song,
[1412.3s] the Banjo Man won't wait too long.
[1419.2s] They like it when you go up at the end.
[1420.9s] Tally, oh my god.
[1422.7s] What?
[1423.6s] That's messed up.
[1424.5s] What do you mean that's messed up?
[1425.8s] That is a horrific song to sing to children.
[1429.0s] But what are you talking about?
[1430.2s] I'm talking about some creepy dude
[1433.6s] singing a song to kids in the woods.
[1436.5s] Well, there was a guy down at the docks.
[1438.5s] That is different.
[1439.9s] Singing this very song to children.
[1442.3s] And there were adults there.
[1444.2s] Sorry, I bumped into you.
[1445.6s] I apologize.
[1446.6s] I'm just getting very animated.
[1450.0s] OK, I need you to hear me.
[1451.3s] So we don't like the song.
[1452.4s] Tell me what part about the song we don't like.
[1454.5s] I don't like that it is telling the children
[1458.5s] that there is a creepy Banjo Man somewhere
[1461.7s] who fills their head with nice songs,
[1464.4s] but also subsequently hides in the forest.
[1476.3s] And lures children.
[1478.0s] That's not what I took out of the song.
[1480.2s] Oh, but that's what it is.
[1483.1s] And then this song sounds like a warning.
[1486.1s] You better not go too far from your bed,
[1488.3s] otherwise a Banjo Man is going to get in your head.
[1490.7s] Well.
[1491.7s] Well.
[1492.7s] OK, so I'm hearing your feedback.
[1495.6s] I'm hearing your feedback.
[1497.0s] So what you're saying is that also,
[1499.4s] it's a song that they like,
[1501.1s] but also it warns them not to walk away in the dark.
[1504.3s] We've had that problem before.
[1505.9s] You've had?
[1506.9s] Well, I'm just talking about it in general.
[1508.5s] You know, the kids sometimes have walked off in the past.
[1510.9s] They've been pretty good.
[1511.9s] They've been pretty good lately.
[1513.5s] But like, this is a constant reminder to stay in the shed.
[1516.3s] That was Jimothy and he was sleepwalking.
[1518.7s] OK.
[1519.7s] Well, yeah.
[1520.7s] I know.
[1521.7s] Jimothy is the tale we tell everybody.
[1523.7s] But now we've got the Banjo Man.
[1525.3s] Yeah, but I don't think that scaring the kids
[1527.5s] is a good idea.
[1528.5s] I won't sing the Banjo Man anymore.
[1530.5s] Thank you.
[1531.5s] What if you were to do the Banjo Man
[1533.5s] What if you were to just change a couple of words?
[1536.1s] Make it your own.
[1537.7s] Make it not so ominous.
[1540.1s] OK.
[1541.1s] That means spooky.
[1542.1s] That's a good one.
[1543.1s] Subsequently, I won't make it ominous.
[1548.3s] Nailing it.
[1550.7s] Quick learner on that vocab.
[1552.1s] And it could be whatever you want.
[1554.5s] But like, just don't make it creepy.
[1556.7s] And we want the children to stay because they like to stay
[1562.5s] and they feel safe, not because if they leave,
[1565.9s] something terrible will happen to them.
[1568.3s] That's fair.
[1568.9s] I mean, we were singing the one that you taught us,
[1571.5s] the Rockabye Baby one.
[1572.7s] But like the baby falls from a treetop in that one.
[1575.7s] The branch isn't that high.
[1577.3s] But I see where you're coming from.
[1579.3s] Cautionary tales.
[1580.5s] You know what?
[1581.1s] Maybe just OK, going forward.
[1584.3s] We just sing happy songs for the kids.
[1586.5s] Just happy songs.
[1587.3s] Yeah, because like stuff's really hard
[1588.9s] and they like legitimately.
[1591.3s] That means like really, really just saw a monster.
[1595.5s] That is true.
[1597.1s] And I bet that's going to leave
[1599.5s] some long lasting, you know, stuff for them.
[1605.9s] Yeah, they have some of them scream in the night.
[1608.3s] But you know, that's.
[1611.3s] Jesus Christ.
[1614.3s] I'm going to need you to tell me
[1617.1s] who's screaming in the night.
[1618.7s] Sure.
[1619.3s] Tally begins to walk back
[1620.7s] and you hear them singing the song again on inside.
[1624.5s] OK, I'll shut it down.
[1625.9s] I just bust the door open.
[1627.5s] Everybody shut up.
[1628.5s] No talking.
[1629.7s] Subsequently, Alydin is going to make sure
[1634.7s] that we don't sing this song ever again.
[1636.7s] Now, point to your friend who was screaming last night.
[1640.7s] I point to Sarah.
[1643.9s] And then they point to Walter.
[1646.9s] And then they point to Dee.
[1648.5s] It's everybody, isn't it?
[1650.5s] Is everybody screaming at night?
[1651.7s] Not everybody.
[1652.7s] Well, in my defense, once Sarah started,
[1654.9s] what was I going to do, not scream?
[1656.5s] It was like a domino attack.
[1657.5s] That would be very scary.
[1658.5s] So here's what I hear.
[1662.1s] Look, I dig inside of my bucket
[1664.9s] and I pull out a piece of chalk.
[1667.1s] You see this?
[1667.9s] Yeah.
[1668.9s] This is magic chalk.
[1672.9s] For real, because I work in a magic shop.
[1677.9s] She's basically a magician.
[1679.7s] Whoa.
[1680.7s] Is there an employee discount?
[1682.7s] Can you eat it?
[1683.9s] No, don't eat it.
[1684.9s] It's chalk.
[1685.9s] Magic chalk.
[1687.3s] So here's what I'm going to do.
[1689.5s] And I go to the front door
[1691.7s] and I draw a thick line of chalk.
[1695.5s] You see that line?
[1697.5s] Yeah, everybody see that line?
[1699.7s] Uh-huh.
[1700.7s] That line is magic
[1703.9s] and no bad stuff can pass it.
[1707.9s] Wow.
[1708.9s] What about at the window?
[1710.9s] Well, let me just check.
[1712.1s] And I go over to the window
[1713.5s] and on the sill I go shh.
[1715.7s] Good thinking.
[1716.3s] Can't pass the window either.
[1717.9s] Uh, so bad stuff can't get in through the door or the window.
[1721.5s] So you know what?
[1722.7s] Only good stuff is in here.
[1724.3s] So when you sing songs,
[1726.1s] let's sing good songs
[1727.1s] and fill this place up with good stuff.
[1729.1s] Does that mean Jim,
[1729.9s] are these feet stinks going to stay outside?
[1732.9s] Oh, good question.
[1734.5s] Are you guys smelly?
[1735.5s] Jimothy, are you smelly?
[1737.7s] Yeah.
[1738.9s] Whoa, Jimothy has a much deeper voice than I in it, doesn't he?
[1743.9s] That's OK.
[1744.9s] It's called puberty.
[1746.9s] Yeah, yeah, it is.
[1748.3s] And it's OK.
[1749.1s] Everybody eventually goes through it
[1751.3s] and all the kids look to each other in shock and fear.
[1756.1s] Oh, we did that little field trip with everybody.
[1760.1s] So is this the first place or the last place you visited?
[1764.3s] Because you probably want to tell them not to sing this.
[1766.9s] Did not.
[1768.9s] You want them to sing different songs.
[1772.5s] This was my first stop,
[1774.5s] but thank you for that information.
[1776.9s] Great.
[1777.5s] All right.
[1777.9s] Do you guys need anything?
[1779.7s] You got more of that chalk?
[1781.3s] I dig inside of my bucket
[1783.5s] and I find another piece of chalk.
[1785.9s] Yep.
[1786.5s] Great.
[1787.5s] So no eating it.
[1789.9s] Tally hands it over to one of the children.
[1792.3s] Just make sure you do a full perimeter.
[1793.9s] Full perimeter of the shed, OK?
[1796.1s] Don't miss any spots.
[1798.1s] And I take out a few cookies from those buns dough
[1803.3s] and I give them to Tally.
[1805.1s] Thank you.
[1805.9s] Not just for you.
[1806.7s] Split them among the kids.
[1808.5s] Of course.
[1809.1s] Yeah, of course.
[1810.3s] You know what?
[1810.9s] You're doing a really good job.
[1812.7s] Oh, thank you.
[1814.5s] It's a learning experience.
[1816.1s] And you're nailing it.
[1817.9s] And you took the feedback well.
[1820.3s] Well, I mean, if you put your back up
[1823.5s] against constructive criticism,
[1825.3s] nobody gets anywhere.
[1826.7s] Great words.
[1827.9s] Wise.
[1828.5s] All right.
[1829.1s] Bye, you guys.
[1831.1s] Bye.
[1831.5s] Love you.
[1832.5s] I love you too.
[1834.3s] Door shuts.
[1835.1s] Everybody go to bed.
[1836.7s] I look up at the sky.
[1838.1s] The sun's still up.
[1839.5s] It's like four o'clock.
[1841.1s] See Tally through the window just chain smoking.
[1845.9s] Nap time, kids.
[1848.9s] Got to write a new fucking lullaby.
[1851.3s] And I book it to the mill.
[1854.7s] We see you tear off towards the mill.
[1856.8s] And we fade back into Comptroller Wiggins' office,
[1861.1s] who's flipping through the ledger.
[1863.1s] And he says, so tell me one more time
[1867.1s] where you got these books from.
[1869.1s] All right, so these books were under locking key
[1873.7s] in Nina's office.
[1875.7s] There are so many names in this book,
[1880.5s] like names I don't even recognize.
[1883.3s] But some names I do recognize.
[1886.9s] Like Nina and the mayor.
[1889.1s] Nina and the mayor are all over this.
[1891.9s] I'm more concerned about, perhaps,
[1895.9s] a noble name that exists not within that town,
[1900.7s] but in this town.
[1902.3s] And he flips back a couple pages.
[1904.5s] And he says, did you see this one?
[1907.3s] And he points to a name, and it's Lady Cressida Thorne.
[1911.1s] Yep, yeah, I saw that one in there a couple times.
[1914.3s] He sits back and takes a swig of his cold coffee.
[1920.1s] But like, what do we do with all these names?
[1922.7s] What do we do with all these names?
[1927.1s] He's gone, like, Stark White,
[1930.5s] his previously unmentioned, unkempt mustache and goatee.
[1937.7s] He starts pulling at it, just like combing it
[1941.3s] through with his hands.
[1942.9s] He says, this is a little bigger
[1947.1s] than I thought it was going to be.
[1948.5s] I thought it was just going to be some local stuff.
[1950.7s] But this is like working with many different regions.
[1954.5s] Oh, yeah, no, and like everyone from dwarves
[1957.9s] to pirates to diplomats.
[1959.7s] It's wild.
[1960.9s] How did Knops is inept?
[1964.1s] How did Knops pull this off?
[1967.5s] Oh, I don't think Knops did.
[1969.9s] That's the thing.
[1972.3s] So you think Knops is the fall guy.
[1975.1s] Or like knows what's happening.
[1979.1s] But I think he knows he's just like,
[1981.1s] oh, well, there's much smarter people
[1982.9s] who can run this instead of me.
[1984.3s] So I'm just going to like, I'll be the figurehead.
[1987.5s] But that's as far as my role goes.
[1990.5s] Right.
[1991.5s] So we have to be.
[1994.1s] He closes the book, closes all of the books,
[1997.7s] and stacks them back up.
[1999.3s] And we have to be very careful about this.
[2005.3s] Looks over your shoulder, makes sure the door is still closed,
[2008.1s] like checking the sill underneath,
[2010.1s] making sure there's no like shadows at the doors.
[2013.3s] We have to be very careful about this.
[2016.5s] Who knows your back?
[2018.7s] Everybody knows your back.
[2020.3s] Literally, everybody in the office knows your back.
[2023.3s] But what if like I leave again,
[2028.3s] and then whatever is going to happen,
[2032.1s] happens once I'm gone.
[2033.5s] And then maybe people won't correlate
[2036.5s] that I had this news for you.
[2040.3s] So you're putting this on me?
[2042.7s] Well, like you're Comptroller for a reason.
[2045.7s] I do endless amounts of paperwork.
[2051.5s] There hasn't been this.
[2053.1s] There hasn't been since I started.
[2055.7s] I've been here for 42 years.
[2058.7s] I'm supposed to retire in three weeks.
[2061.9s] Oh my God, I had no idea.
[2063.3s] They were going to throw a big party for me.
[2066.1s] Usually there's like a card that goes around,
[2068.5s] but I guess with me not being here for a while,
[2070.5s] I probably missed out on that.
[2071.7s] It's probably on one of the piles on your desk.
[2074.3s] Oh, yeah.
[2077.7s] Bazaar, what do you think?
[2078.7s] What should we do?
[2080.3s] Well, I find it interesting that a noble person
[2085.3s] from Kingston would wind up sending money to Vintersmouth.
[2089.3s] What reason would they have to do that?
[2092.7s] Especially considering like how the mayor has used
[2097.5s] the money for gold statues.
[2099.5s] Unless they're trying to make themselves some kind of,
[2102.1s] I don't know, a vacation spot made just for them.
[2105.7s] But I love Vintersmouth, but I don't think it's that really.
[2111.3s] Well, I mean, I don't know.
[2112.9s] I don't know what the end goal is,
[2114.9s] but looking through the book,
[2117.1s] it seems like her payments are,
[2120.9s] well, they correlate with Nopz's authority
[2123.7s] and like anytime there's a challenge to him,
[2125.7s] she seems to like re-up that payment.
[2129.7s] So obviously something there between the two of them,
[2133.1s] but I don't know what it could be.
[2136.1s] What if we just focus on getting Nopz and Nina out?
[2143.3s] What about that?
[2144.7s] Yeah, we could focus on that.
[2146.7s] I think that's the move and the evidence here
[2150.3s] would hopefully, what we're willing to divulge,
[2153.7s] yeah, would certainly get them out.
[2157.7s] I don't know how rich this Cressida person is,
[2161.7s] but unless they have...
[2163.1s] You see Jav making the money sign
[2165.1s] with his fingers in the background.
[2167.1s] I could only assume based off of the brief numbers I saw,
[2170.9s] but if they have the money to throw like this,
[2176.7s] who says they wouldn't just throw it behind
[2179.3s] any kind of lawmen to make it just go away?
[2186.1s] And nothing happens.
[2187.3s] Yeah, yeah, I see your point.
[2190.3s] Evidence burned, evidence dismissed.
[2195.1s] Wiggums looks to you, Kav.
[2197.1s] Have you made...
[2198.7s] I see you've got some notes there on this.
[2201.1s] Have you made any copies of anything that's in this?
[2205.9s] Not like a copy per se,
[2208.1s] but like jotting down my thoughts.
[2211.3s] Of course, of course, of course, of course.
[2213.3s] Here's what I'm proposing.
[2214.7s] Here's the spaghetti that I'm throwing at the wall here.
[2217.1s] Love it. Hit me with it.
[2218.1s] I don't know how long you've been walking around
[2220.5s] with these books for,
[2221.5s] but I don't think you should be walking around with these books.
[2224.3s] Oh, yeah, full agreement there.
[2226.3s] We need to keep these books somewhere safe
[2228.9s] that nobody is ever going to look.
[2231.3s] I would say the giant stack of paperwork on my desk,
[2233.7s] but someone might actually look there, you know, for the card.
[2236.7s] Okay, so what if we go find the card,
[2239.7s] get the card out of the stack,
[2241.3s] and as ridiculous as this sounds,
[2243.5s] what if we hid these books inside that giant stack of papers
[2247.5s] that nobody's ever going to look,
[2249.3s] and they just keep piling papers on top of it?
[2251.7s] So your solution is to find the needle in the paper stack.
[2255.9s] Yes.
[2256.9s] And then hide more needles in said paper stack.
[2259.1s] And then hide more needles in the paper stack.
[2261.3s] And what I think I need to do here
[2265.7s] is to start asking some pointed questions
[2269.7s] to some people that I trust
[2272.1s] and figure out exactly how high this goes up
[2275.7s] so that we can figure out who to take this to.
[2280.3s] And I'm sorry to tell you, but I don't think you're back yet.
[2283.9s] Oh, yeah, no, I'm thrilled to hear that.
[2286.5s] I did not want to do anything back here.
[2289.7s] I mean, not that, you know, there's not,
[2291.9s] like, I want to come back here eventually.
[2293.7s] Yeah, I understand.
[2294.7s] There's lots going on down in Vintersmouth.
[2296.9s] Yeah, I feel like we need to keep you in Vintersmouth.
[2302.5s] You've developed some relationships with people
[2305.3s] who obviously are presumably connected with this, yes?
[2309.7s] Yeah, yeah, one really good relationship
[2313.1s] with my friend Bench, who is,
[2315.1s] well, he comes up in that book a few times, doesn't he?
[2317.5s] Yeah, he did notice that name.
[2320.3s] Okay, so maybe,
[2322.9s] maybe you can use that to your advantage.
[2325.3s] If you, guaranteed, he knows what you've been doing, right?
[2331.1s] We haven't been keeping that a secret.
[2332.7s] You were there with explicit directions to audit the office.
[2335.7s] Oh, yeah, yeah, he knows, he knows, yeah.
[2338.9s] He doesn't know what we found.
[2340.9s] No.
[2341.5s] But he knows what I'm doing there.
[2342.9s] Okay, if we're able to keep you there,
[2346.3s] you can gain any more information.
[2348.9s] Obviously, these books are gone.
[2350.5s] That may pose some questions.
[2353.7s] Could be a problem.
[2354.3s] But why would you come back if you had the books?
[2357.7s] Only a fool would do that.
[2358.7s] Only a fool would do that.
[2361.1s] It looks too bizarre, right?
[2362.9s] Only a fool.
[2363.5s] That's my thought on it, too.
[2366.3s] Okay.
[2368.9s] When's the next ship out that you're looking to take?
[2372.7s] Biz, like tomorrow, right?
[2375.1s] Yeah, we can head back out up and hit up the library tonight
[2378.3s] and then see what my mom says tomorrow morning, then we're off.
[2381.3s] Perfect.
[2381.9s] Oh, we still got to stop by a chest of drawers.
[2383.9s] Of course.
[2384.5s] Maybe that can just be like on the way.
[2386.1s] If you know what you want, I know what I want.
[2388.3s] Got their catalog in the mail a couple of months ago and saw what the...
[2392.5s] They've got some nice seasonal patterns.
[2395.3s] I was just there last week.
[2396.7s] Oh, okay.
[2398.1s] I always love when they get the seasonal stuff in because it's not in the catalog.
[2401.9s] So you just have to kind of go see what's there.
[2403.7s] That's right.
[2404.3s] It's exciting.
[2405.3s] Okay.
[2406.9s] I will start spreading the news.
[2410.1s] I'm going to go tell Stacey that you're not going to be here.
[2413.3s] She's going to be very upset.
[2414.7s] Well, I mean, literally, if you tell Stacey, then everyone will know.
[2418.1s] So I'm going to go tell her that you're not here and there's been a bit of a mix up.
[2422.7s] They'll continue to pile papers.
[2424.5s] Yeah, just keep putting that paper.
[2425.7s] I'll be back to do it.
[2426.9s] Don't you worry about that aggressive wink.
[2429.5s] Yeah, yeah.
[2430.5s] Bureaucracy is cool.
[2432.1s] Take these books and put them back in your desk.
[2436.9s] I trust you to put them in a place in a certain stack.
[2441.7s] Nobody's going to touch the fucking stack.
[2443.7s] That's all I'm saying.
[2444.7s] So put them back in your desk and then casually exit the building.
[2450.9s] I will ask those questions.
[2453.1s] I will try and get some information before you go as to what could possibly be your
[2459.9s] next step or if there's somebody we can take this to quicker.
[2466.7s] Sounds good.
[2467.7s] Always a pleasure, Wiggins.
[2469.1s] Always a pleasure, Cass.
[2470.3s] And I am sorry.
[2472.7s] No, no, no, no, no.
[2473.7s] This is great.
[2474.5s] This is what we sent you out there for.
[2476.1s] I was hoping he was just inept and didn't know how to add numbers.
[2480.5s] But it turns out he's got enough backing that...
[2483.9s] Oh, yeah, there's some super corruption.
[2486.1s] Gosh.
[2487.1s] Okay.
[2488.5s] He cracks open a little container and pops two pills into his mouth and just starts
[2494.5s] chewing them up.
[2495.5s] Oh, no, you mixed up your cyanide, Cass.
[2500.3s] And now he's dead.
[2502.7s] It just seems like a running joke in this office.
[2504.9s] Somebody else's problem now.
[2506.9s] Oh, you cyanide pills.
[2508.3s] Oh, no.
[2509.1s] Womp, womp.
[2510.5s] All right.
[2511.1s] So we'll meet tomorrow at the usual spot.
[2516.5s] You know where we do all the office outings.
[2520.3s] You know, you've been to the office outings, right?
[2523.7s] Yeah.
[2524.1s] You've never been to a single office outing.
[2526.9s] No, I haven't.
[2529.7s] So we started meeting at the escape rooms so we can go meet at the escape rooms.
[2534.9s] Okay.
[2535.3s] Nobody's going to expect a business dealing at the escape room.
[2539.1s] That's a place where joy goes.
[2540.7s] Okay.
[2541.7s] I'll see you tomorrow.
[2543.5s] He heads down the office.
[2545.5s] Stacy, you hear it calls down.
[2548.5s] The two of you head back down the hallway towards your desk and you've got those
[2552.7s] books in hand.
[2554.1s] Oh, I put them back in my bag at this point, I believe.
[2556.9s] You're not walking around with them like this, just held it in front of you.
[2559.7s] Don't look over here.
[2561.3s] You've got the books in your bag.
[2562.5s] Mind your business.
[2564.5s] At the books in your bag, you're heading back towards your desk.
[2567.5s] You hear George walks by, he says, oh, sorry, I actually back.
[2571.7s] Stacy said you weren't.
[2573.3s] Oh, yeah, no, just back.
[2574.7s] Just just for a little scooch of time and then back to back to back to the
[2579.9s] dub.
[2580.1s] It's good to see you.
[2580.9s] Do you mean to keep water in the ficus?
[2582.5s] Are you going to take that with you?
[2584.3s] You know what?
[2584.9s] I'm going to take it with me.
[2586.1s] Roger that.
[2586.5s] I appreciate you keeping it alive.
[2588.3s] It's one of the easiest things I've ever done in this place.
[2591.7s] Well, it's good to see you.
[2593.5s] Can't wait to see when you are back and pleasure to meet you.
[2597.5s] Keeps carrying on.
[2598.9s] Good, dude.
[2599.7s] Yeah, you know what?
[2600.9s] George is solid.
[2601.5s] And as I like, I tuck the books into like the never-ending stack of
[2605.7s] paperwork and the card is like on top of one of the other stacks.
[2609.9s] It's delightful.
