FEARS TO FATHOM Meets THE STALKED in ONCE UPON A MIND a Little Too Friendly

YouTube is 💩

Once Upon A Mind - A Little Too Friendly is a short, story-driven psychological horror experience that focuses on grounded horror without supernatural elements [1]. The game follows Emily, a 23-year-old who moves to Brooklyn for a fresh start, taking a job at a small café [1] [2]. Her initial sense of comfort gradually unravels as an unsettling presence begins to shadow her routine [2].  The game emphasizes narrative through dialogue, monologue, and an immersive atmosphere, with most lines being voice-acted to enhance tension and emotion [1] [2]. Key story sequences are presented in a fully voiced, stylized graphic novel format for deeper emotional impact [1]. The gameplay involves first-person exploration, allowing players to interact with their surroundings and uncover the story at their own pace [1]. Despite its horror genre, it includes calm café gameplay moments [1]. The game is designed to be completed in under an hour, typically taking 40-60 minutes [1]. Its realistic tone is inspired by real-life situations of obsession, control, and unease [1].  While praised for its strong voice acting, atmospheric environment, and impactful ending, some aspects could be improved [2]. The transition between comic-style story sequences and gameplay can feel jarring, and technical issues like erratic NPC behavior and overlapping dialogue have been noted [2]. A significant point of feedback is the lack of a manual save option, though the game does resume from the last major story beat  YOUTUBE IS ABSOLUTE GARBAGE... please follow me on other websites instead.

00:00:00Welcome back everyone, this is Nezuko here again with hopefully a game similar to Fears

00:00:15to Fathom, at least that's what the reviews are saying.

00:00:19It's called Once Upon a Mind, a little too friendly, and it's got some decent voice acting

00:00:25from what I can tell, so you won't be hearing too much of me, I'm gonna shut up and let them

00:00:33do most of the talking, so, alright, let's get into it, look, this is gonna be unusual,

00:00:38it's gonna be unlike anything that we've done here so far, looks like.

00:00:47Dialogue voice lines, um, grr.

00:00:53I was 23 when I moved to Brooklyn, no big reason, just, wife pushing me forward.

00:00:59I'd always been close to my parents, and even though they were a little upset, they understood,

00:01:04I needed space, a fresh start, my own place, my own life, it felt like the right move.

00:01:11Back then, I thought it would be simple, new apartment, part time job, maybe meet a few

00:01:17people, just enough to feel like I was building something.

00:01:20But looking back now, I had no idea how quickly things could change, how fast comfort could

00:01:26turn into paranoia, or how someone's kindness could twist into something else entirely.

00:01:32I didn't move here looking for trouble, but somehow, it still found me.

00:01:38Alright, very interesting, uh, intro.

00:01:44Where to?

00:01:50129, Mabel Ave, Brooklyn.

00:01:54Ah, Mabel, you new around here?

00:01:58Yeah, I'm moving in today, hoping for a fresh start.

00:02:02Brooklyn's not a bad spot, busy though, you'll get used to it.

00:02:06I'll try, it's a lot different from where I'm from.

00:02:10You'll be fine, now buckle up, let's get you there.

00:02:14I'll try, it's a lot different from where I'm from.

00:02:28I'll try, it's a lot different from where I'm from.

00:02:56You gotta like that there, he's an actual police officer.

00:02:58It was a short ride to Mabel Ave from where I used to live.

00:03:01The taxi driver kept a conversation going with small talk.

00:03:04He gave me a few tips about the area, too.

00:03:07He seemed like a genuinely nice guy.

00:03:09Made me feel a little more hopeful.

00:03:11Like maybe I'd meet good people here.

00:03:13When I finally got to the apartment, I was exhausted.

00:03:17The only thing on my mind was unpacking just enough to crash for the night.

00:03:21It had been a long day, and honestly, I just needed some quiet.

00:03:26Oh, we don't get a voice for her?

00:03:38Okay, well, look at you.

00:03:40You've grown up so much since I, so much, I still remember you running around at pigtails

00:03:45when your mom brought you to my place that one summer.

00:03:48I had no idea.

00:03:49I was too young to remember anything.

00:03:51Haha, yeah.

00:03:52Feels like forever ago.

00:03:55It was forever ago.

00:03:57Your mom and I go way back.

00:03:59When she told me you were moving here, I just knew I had to help however I could.

00:04:04Here you go, sweetheart.

00:04:06Your keys.

00:04:07Apartment is just above mine, 2B.

00:04:10Thank you so much, Mrs. Jacob.

00:04:13Really.

00:04:14Now go on, get some rest.

00:04:17You've got a whole new chapter ahead of you.

00:04:20Yeah, it's definitely got the creepy, um, face models from Fears to Fathom.

00:04:27Let's go up.

00:04:30Let's leave it here.

00:04:33I'm gonna explore a little bit.

00:04:39There's like people walking around.

00:04:46Imagine all these doors are gonna be locked.

00:04:49I have no need to go there.

00:04:52And, they're walled off.

00:04:56Okay, so imagine I can't go up the street very far.

00:05:02Nope.

00:05:03Okay.

00:05:04Well, that's a nice thought on it.

00:05:08Let's go.

00:05:09Chup, chup, chup, chup, chup.

00:05:112B.

00:05:12Ah!

00:05:13Cool.

00:05:14Can't knock.

00:05:15Okay.

00:05:16Oh, Jesus.

00:05:17Didn't think anyone was coming in here.

00:05:18Sorry, sir.

00:05:19What the hell?

00:05:20Who are you?

00:05:21Who are you?

00:05:22Handyman.

00:05:23I was fixing the heater.

00:05:24Landlady said tomorrow.

00:05:25You weren't supposed to be here today.

00:05:26Oh, God.

00:05:27Just get out.

00:05:28Right?

00:05:29Just get out.

00:05:30Right?

00:05:31Oh.

00:05:32Oh, Jesus.

00:05:33I didn't think anyone was coming in here.

00:05:37Sorry, sir.

00:05:38What the hell?

00:05:40Who are you?

00:05:42Handyman.

00:05:43Handyman.

00:05:44I was fixing the heater.

00:05:46Landlady said tomorrow.

00:05:48You weren't supposed to be here today.

00:05:50Oh, God.

00:05:53Just get out.

00:05:54Right?

00:05:55Creepy fun.

00:05:56Ooh.

00:05:57I remember unpacking my suitcase after I entered.

00:06:10Okay.

00:06:12Holding down the key.

00:06:14Nothing is happening.

00:06:16Uh.

00:06:21On the highlighted places.

00:06:24Okay.

00:06:25It must mean the other room.

00:06:39Handyman.

00:06:40Throw those down.

00:06:41Grab that.

00:06:42Let's go.

00:06:43Can I put a closet?

00:06:44I won't open.

00:06:45Okay.

00:06:46Aw, man.

00:06:47Why does that thing have been so dark?

00:06:52Is that a highlighted place?

00:06:53Oh.

00:06:54Oh, there we go.

00:06:55Okay.

00:06:56What the fuck?

00:06:57Did she bring enough snacks?

00:06:59Okay.

00:07:00I'll place the items on the highlighted places.

00:07:01Okay.

00:07:02So.

00:07:03Oh.

00:07:04Oh.

00:07:05Oh.

00:07:06Oh.

00:07:07Oh.

00:07:08Oh.

00:07:09Oh.

00:07:10Oh.

00:07:11Oh.

00:07:12well.

00:07:13That maybe we can go.

00:07:14Oh.

00:07:15Oh.

00:07:16Oh.

00:07:17I'll place the items in the aisle on any places I think, so...

00:07:47I'm serious...

00:08:18These go here.

00:08:23Place... there we go.

00:08:26Oh, nice.

00:08:28I feel hungry. I could grab some snacks. After that, I'll use the bathroom to get freshened up.

00:08:34Oh, shit. I'm inside here.

00:08:47There we go.

00:09:04Good. Little piggy. Quiet piggy.

00:09:10Can I turn this on? Nope.

00:09:19Why am I supposed to take a shower?

00:09:21This is the bathroom, right? Okay.

00:09:33Oh, now it's...

00:09:34It wasn't working earlier.

00:09:37Oh, they just don't want to, uh...

00:09:40They just don't want to create a bathroom.

00:09:44Who could be around this tunnel?

00:09:48Uh, can I help you?

00:10:01Uh, can I help you?

00:10:15Moving in, huh?

00:10:18Yeah. Just got here.

00:10:20I bet he's the neighbor.

00:10:22Laws are thin.

00:10:23You better keep it low, kid.

00:10:24And keep your doors locked.

00:10:25This place is full of freaks.

00:10:27I could see that.

00:10:29We'll keep that in mind.

00:10:30I knew it. I knew it.

00:10:37I knew it.

00:10:38Okay. That was... something.

00:10:41I should head to sleep, though.

00:10:55I have to interact with that pillow.

00:11:00The next morning, I woke up late.

00:11:02First night, a new place will do that to you.

00:11:04I spent most of the day unpacking, cleaning, doing the usual settling in stuff.

00:11:09Honestly, I got so caught up in it all, I completely forgot to apply for a job.

00:11:14It wasn't until my mom texted, checking in, that I remembered.

00:11:17That little, did you apply yet? guilt trip was all it took.

00:11:21So, I finally pulled up my laptop and applied.

00:11:30Oh, we only got one channel.

00:11:39Okay, that's fine.

00:11:41There's only one channel on here.

00:11:53I wish that he'd just click apply.

00:11:58Oh my god, not again.

00:12:03A pizza?

00:12:16Oh, bless you, you little angel.

00:12:20Afternoon, hon. I was making some pizza today. Figured I'd bake one extra for you.

00:12:26That's really sweet of you, Mrs. Jacobs.

00:12:28Yeah.

00:12:30She looks scarier in the dark.

00:12:33I mean, she still looks a little scarier.

00:12:35Of course, dear, just wanted to check in.

00:12:38Is everything alright in the new place?

00:12:40Your mother and I go way back.

00:12:42You can always talk to me.

00:12:44Well, that's a relief to hear.

00:12:50Still, if you ever need anything, don't hesitate.

00:12:53It's a big city girl.

00:12:55But this building has got a little heart.

00:12:58Now, go on.

00:12:59Take this.

00:13:00I made it just for you.

00:13:02Not at all drugged.

00:13:05Yah.

00:13:10Did it just disappear?

00:13:11Oh, okay.

00:13:12I guess I'll eat it.

00:13:19Oh, I can't go there.

00:13:21Okay.

00:13:22Alright, that was cool.

00:13:31That looks spooky.

00:13:39Oh, that's their other game.

00:13:40The Bopatisha.

00:13:48Okay.

00:13:57I should take a shower before I go to work.

00:13:59Didn't you just take a shower?

00:14:01I ended up applying for a waitress job at a nearby cafe.

00:14:10A couple hours later, I got a message.

00:14:12It was from someone named Sarah.

00:14:14We exchanged a few texts.

00:14:16She asked where I was from, and I told her I just moved to the area.

00:14:20She was sweet, said I could stop by the cafe that evening just to meet her and see how things felt.

00:14:26I didn't expect much, but something about it felt right.

00:14:29I could use the routine.

00:14:31Oh, okay.

00:14:32Oh, that dude's power walking.

00:14:33Oh, this is cool.

00:14:34Got like a little city going on.

00:14:35Oh, this is cool.

00:14:36Got like a little city going on.

00:14:37On the left corner of the street.

00:14:38So, that's it.

00:14:39Oh, that's it.

00:14:40Oh, that dude's power walking.

00:14:41Oh, this is cool.

00:14:42Got like a little city going on.

00:14:44On the left corner of the street.

00:14:49So, that's it.

00:14:51This is pretty cool.

00:14:53Can they run me over?

00:14:54Ahhhhhh.

00:14:55Oh, that dude's power walking.

00:14:57Oh, this is cool.

00:14:58Got like a little city going on.

00:15:02On the left corner of the street.

00:15:03So, that's it.

00:15:04This is pretty cool.

00:15:07Can they run me over?

00:15:11Ahh.

00:15:12Ah! Ah! Oh, that's cool. You can just go right over. Huzzah. Okay. Oh, I can't stay on one.

00:15:25That's a big one. Come on. Let's play chicken. I love how they don't even stop, though.

00:15:33Okay. Stop playing around. Let's get to work. Bluebird Cafe.

00:15:49Hey, Emily. Good to see you. How was your first day in the new apartment?

00:15:52It's been hectic, to be honest. Still unpacking and getting everything set up.

00:15:57I can imagine. Moving can be such a hassle. Need any help with anything?

00:16:02Oh, thanks, but I think I got it under control. Just trying to get settled in.

00:16:09You'll get there. And hey, no pressure today. I know we called you in kinda last minute.

00:16:15What happened was, our last waitress quit out of nowhere, so you're a bit of a lifesaver.

00:16:19Oh, wow. Didn't realize I was filling some big shoes.

00:16:26Uh, I'll be up front handling the register if you need anything. Just give me a shot, okay?

00:16:31Okay. Hey, I gotta cheat.

00:16:36Uh, put a cup in the machine.

00:16:41Money. M-m-m-money. Money.

00:16:44Money. Okay, so I guess I gotta go around and ask people what they want.

00:16:48What?

00:16:51What?

00:17:05He's trying to look at me.

00:17:07Huh.

00:17:08He's not doing anything.

00:17:12I guess I gotta go over and ask what they want, right?

00:17:37Matcha?

00:17:44I don't know what's going on.

00:17:55Milk coffee.

00:17:56Oh, they're, okay, I'm taking their orders, okay.

00:17:59Milk coffee.

00:18:00Alright, so milk coffee is a two.

00:18:04There we go.

00:18:07Yeah.

00:18:10Can't you throw it out?

00:18:13Yeah!

00:18:15Thankfully I didn't spill any.

00:18:19What the fuck?

00:18:23Okay.

00:18:25Dude's having a good signature or something.

00:18:32See, they're almost making me work, but it's not cool.

00:18:40There we go.

00:18:42Alright.

00:18:43What did you want?

00:18:45Dark coffee.

00:18:46No surprise there.

00:18:48It's insane.

00:18:49Alright.

00:18:50I hope I don't have enough cups.

00:18:51Dark coffee's a one.

00:18:52Like, she couldn't do this by herself.

00:18:53This is crazy.

00:18:54Oh.

00:18:55Yeah, eat that shit.

00:18:56Dark coffee.

00:18:57Let me eat some dark coffee.

00:18:58Okay.

00:18:59Okay.

00:19:00What did she want?

00:19:05Okay.

00:19:06Okay.

00:19:07What did she want?

00:19:10Darn coffee, I mean, it's dark.

00:19:25Okay.

00:19:27What did she want? Matcha.

00:19:31Matcha, okay. Two matchas.

00:19:36What the fuck that is?

00:19:40Right.

00:19:46Please first.

00:20:04Okay, all good.

00:20:11Yeah, you know what I'm checking out.

00:20:16Alright, we're good, right?

00:20:20Now what? Did I get money?

00:20:22Ah, a wallet.

00:20:34Hey Sarah, I think I dropped my wallet here earlier today.

00:20:44Oh, alright. You were here earlier. Sure, you can take a look.

00:20:47Thanks. Take it. Take it.

00:20:53Oh, man.

00:20:55Too slow.

00:20:56I think that's it for today, Em. You did really well.

00:21:04Awesome. 15 minutes of work.

00:21:06Thanks, Sarah. I was kind of nervous at first, but it wasn't too bad.

00:21:10Yeah, easiest job in the world except hers.

00:21:12Random, but...

00:21:13I've seriously been craving cupcakes all day.

00:21:18I get that. Serving customers all day really helps build a sweet tooth of your own.

00:21:23Listen, there's this really good bakery just a few blocks down.

00:21:26You should check it out tomorrow.

00:21:29Alright, let's lock up and get out of here.

00:21:31Alright.

00:21:45My first shift was over, and honestly, it felt good.

00:21:49I actually enjoyed working beside Sarah.

00:21:51She made everything feel a little easier.

00:21:55I had ordered food earlier, just something small to treat myself.

00:21:58By the time I got home, it was already at my doorstep.

00:22:01But as I stepped out that night, something felt off.

00:22:05Not wrong exactly, just...off.

00:22:10That's her neighbor.

00:22:28Going further.

00:22:31Going further.

00:22:51Ooh!

00:22:52What the hell?

00:22:54That scared the hell out of me.

00:22:55He came out of nowhere.

00:22:56Hey, your name's Emily, right?

00:22:59Yeah, it is.

00:23:01Aren't you the guy who lost his wallet?

00:23:05Guilty, haha.

00:23:06That's me.

00:23:07I'm David.

00:23:09Did you need something, David?

00:23:12Uh, I know this might sound weird, but...

00:23:15Do you have some social media or something?

00:23:17Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

00:23:18I mean, not trying to be a creep or anything, just...

00:23:20Don't you seem really cool?

00:23:26I don't...

00:23:28Really use...

00:23:29Social media.

00:23:30No social media.

00:23:32No social media?

00:23:34In this day and age?

00:23:35It's kinda rare.

00:23:36Well...

00:23:38I just thought you were really pretty, you know.

00:23:41Figured I'd shoot my shot.

00:23:44Oh, Jesus Christ.

00:23:46Anyway, guess I'll see you around.

00:23:49Bye and...

00:23:50So that's not the end of the creepy stuff.

00:24:15He's just waiting here.

00:24:17Yeah, it's not creepy.

00:24:23Not at all.

00:24:31I have no idea where I live.

00:24:47I can't go any further here.

00:25:01Yeah, this little city is very unsettling.

00:25:05Okay, I can't go any further that way.

00:25:08Probably can't go much further this way.

00:25:11Huh?

00:25:16Is this it?

00:25:18It is.

00:25:19Wow.

00:25:20Lucky break.

00:25:21Nice.

00:25:27Is this a package?

00:25:28That must be the food I ordered.

00:25:30I wanna watch TV and eat the food.

00:25:33That sounded very AI there.

00:25:35I wanted to watch TV and eat the food.

00:25:48Looking to consume.

00:25:52I'll have to place it down first.

00:25:53Sit down first.

00:26:02There we go.

00:26:06Ugh.

00:26:08Saved the old damn box, aren't I?

00:26:10There we go.

00:26:11Nothing crunchy.

00:26:16Oh, it's him again.

00:26:18Lower your freaking volume.

00:26:21Don't you understand?

00:26:23I'm trying to sleep.

00:26:24Uh, I don't give a fuck what you're trying to do.

00:26:29I'm sorry.

00:26:30I'll lower the volume.

00:26:32I apologize for the inconvenience.

00:26:33Don't apologize to him.

00:26:36He's rude.

00:26:38You're a rude little shit, you know that?

00:26:41I'm sorry.

00:26:42I'm sorry.

00:26:43I'll lower the volume.

00:26:44I apologize for the inconvenience.

00:26:45Don't apologize to him.

00:26:47He's rude.

00:26:49You're a rude little shit, you know that?

00:26:51Rude little shit, you know that?

00:26:53Lower your freaking volume!

00:26:55Oh, you're gonna say it again?

00:26:56It's on his throat.

00:26:58Don't you understand?

00:26:59I'm trying to sleep.

00:27:02I'm sorry.

00:27:03I'll lower the volume.

00:27:04I apologize for the inconvenience.

00:27:12I have started to dislike this oldie.

00:27:15Anyway, I should take a shower and head to bed.

00:27:18Yeah.

00:27:21Let's take a shower.

00:27:29It's kind of weird they didn't create a bathroom, though.

00:27:34Someone's in that apartment.

00:27:35I swear I heard something outside.

00:27:51Something's gonna jump on me.

00:28:00I know it.

00:28:05Oh, okay.

00:28:06Something's in my room now.

00:28:22Okay.

00:28:42Okay, I'm going to put that up there.

00:29:12I can't go outside, so I'm not sure what it wants me to do.

00:29:28Let me just wait.

00:29:37I thought for sure someone was going to be outside the window.

00:29:41Okay, let's go.

00:30:04Bedtime?

00:30:05Alright, I'm just going to bed again.

00:30:09Next few days were the same.

00:30:15Wake up, work, come back, sleep.

00:30:18Nothing really stood out, except him.

00:30:21I don't know why, but David kept finding ways to talk to me.

00:30:28It stops narrating in odd places.

00:30:35She says, in the cafe after my shift, even when I went out to take the cafe's trash.

00:30:41But that day something triggered my weirdo-meter.

00:30:48Oh, there he is.

00:30:53There she is.

00:30:54Don't worry, I'm not here to order anything.

00:30:57Just thought I'd drop something off.

00:31:00What's this for?

00:31:03Chocolate cupcake.

00:31:06You mentioned craving one the other day.

00:31:09Extra chocolate.

00:31:11I'm actually from that bakery on 5th Street.

00:31:14It's 5th Sweet Town.

00:31:16They're always sold out by the evening, so I had to go curly.

00:31:20That's really nice of you, but you didn't have to.

00:31:24I'm like 19, too.

00:31:26This is really creepy.

00:31:27I wanted to, I mean, what kind of guy would I be if I didn't do something sweet for someone who deserves it?

00:31:37God, these come out so fucking creepy, too.

00:31:40Like old man creepy.

00:31:42Go on, try it.

00:31:44I wonder if they still make them good as it used to.

00:31:47Just one bite.

00:31:49I really can't eat while on shift.

00:31:52It's just one bite.

00:31:55Come on, Emily.

00:31:56Oh, he's not smiling anymore.

00:31:58I brought it just for you.

00:32:02David, she said no.

00:32:05Yeah.

00:32:06We appreciate your gesture, but-

00:32:07Thanks, Sarah.

00:32:08Don't disturb us during our shift, man.

00:32:09Mm-hmm.

00:32:10I felt so safe around Sarah.

00:32:13Right, right.

00:32:14Sorry.

00:32:15I just thought it'd be a nice surprise.

00:32:18Next time, maybe.

00:32:21The way he's carrying it, man.

00:32:24Jesus.

00:32:25I never told him about cupcakes.

00:32:27I sent Sarah two days ago.

00:32:30He's just being weird.

00:32:36After that day, things felt normal again.

00:32:41Or at least they seemed to.

00:32:43David still came by the cafe like usual.

00:32:46Nothing was out of the ordinary.

00:32:48And honestly, I'd settled in pretty well.

00:32:51I was getting used to the flow of things.

00:32:53Then came October 7th.

00:32:55Uh-oh.

00:32:56I decided to order some groceries.

00:32:58Just the usual stuff.

00:32:59I was running low on basics.

00:33:01When the delivery finally came, he said something I did not expect.

00:33:05Uh-oh.

00:33:06I can't open my door.

00:33:07I've got to wait for it to get knocked on, I guess.

00:33:21There we go.

00:33:23Oh, it's so dark out there.

00:33:27It's so creepy.

00:33:28Delivery guy.

00:33:29Press E to interact.

00:33:30Ma'am, it's your groceries.

00:33:31He's Asian, too.

00:33:32Oh, and by the way, someone already paid for it down there.

00:33:34What?

00:33:35Who was it?

00:33:36Uh, some guy.

00:33:37Tall, dark hair.

00:33:38Kind of quiet.

00:33:39He said he wanted to do something for you.

00:33:40Do something nice for you.

00:33:41From inside.

00:33:42Yeah.

00:33:43Yeah.

00:33:44Yeah.

00:33:45Yeah.

00:33:46Yeah.

00:33:47Yeah.

00:33:48Yeah.

00:33:49Yeah.

00:33:50Yeah.

00:33:51Yeah.

00:33:52Yeah.

00:33:53Yeah.

00:33:54Yeah.

00:33:55Do something nice for you.

00:33:56From inside.

00:33:57I was like, what the actual hell?

00:34:01Okay.

00:34:02I should head to work.

00:34:18But first.

00:34:19Some chips.

00:34:20He's going to be outside my door, isn't he?

00:34:25And then I need to get that wet floor sign out of my way.

00:34:41I want to see the rest of this building.

00:34:43I knew it.

00:34:44I knew it.

00:34:45I knew it.

00:34:46I'm not scared.

00:34:47Hmm.

00:34:48Ooh.

00:34:49Ha ha ha.

00:34:50Did you like my kind gesture, Emily?

00:34:52I like how he would use the same sounds.

00:34:53Like that.

00:34:54That train, whatever.

00:34:55That loud whistle.

00:34:56Dude.

00:34:57You scared me.

00:34:58And yeah.

00:34:59I loved your surprise.

00:35:00I loved your surprise.

00:35:01Oh, thank you.

00:35:02Thanks.

00:35:03I guess.

00:35:04But you really didn't have to.

00:35:06Come on.

00:35:07I was just being nice.

00:35:08You're new here.

00:35:09Thought I'd help out.

00:35:10I noticed that he had a habit of repeating things.

00:35:11Annoying as hell.

00:35:12So, did you like my kind gesture?

00:35:13Yeah.

00:35:14I just answered you.

00:35:15No?

00:35:16By the way, I'm running late already.

00:35:17I need to be at the cafe.

00:35:18Busy girl.

00:35:19Well, I won't keep you.

00:35:20I've got some things to take care of anyway.

00:35:21Hmm.

00:35:22I wish I had a flatátic- Had it?

00:35:23I wish I had a flatátic motorbike.

00:35:24Did you think I could get it?

00:35:25Why not?

00:35:27Why not?

00:35:28Why not?

00:35:29Why not?

00:35:30Why not?

00:35:31Why not?

00:35:32Why not?

00:35:33Why not?

00:35:34Why not?

00:35:35Why not?

00:35:36Why not?

00:35:37I'm dying.

00:35:38Why not?

00:35:39I'm dying.

00:35:40Ah, I knew it.

00:35:41Why not?

00:35:42Why not?

00:35:44Why not?

00:35:45Why not?

00:35:46Why not?

00:35:47Why not?

00:35:48like. What's going on with his head? Don't see that? I follow David. Roll Reversal. Okay.

00:36:11Got to find that cafe though. That's it, right? No, it's like blue. That's going to be the pharmacy.

00:36:24Oh my god. Oh my god.

00:36:35I bet you this is an achievement. Oh. Man, I just cleaned up trash for no fucking reason.

00:36:59Alright. It's the pharmacy. Ah, here we go.

00:37:13Bye sweetie.

00:37:15Sarah, what happened to your eye? Damn. It looks like her boyfriend had a hotel or something.

00:37:21Oh, this? It's nothing, really. Just a stupid accident. Anyway, come on. Let's get ready. Our shift's about to start.

00:37:27Are you sure you're okay?

00:37:29Yeah, yeah. Just clumsy as always. Let's not make a thing out of it, alright?

00:37:35Okay. I don't know how to do this now.

00:37:41Okay, go ahead. Come on, I need customers.

00:37:51Come on, I need customers.

00:38:01Here comes one.

00:38:06Boom.

00:38:07...

00:38:08We're going to dance around, we're gonna never keep it down, and we're gonna dance around, we're gonna never keep it down, and we're going to dance around, we're gonna never keep it down.

00:38:23Yep, we got coffee coming right up...

00:38:26...

00:38:29...

00:38:33Emily, I need to go right now. Please, cover for the rest of my shift.

00:38:37Damn, she got... she got tired.

00:38:40Wait, what? What happened? Are you okay?

00:38:44It's my husband. He, um... I really need to go. Take care of yourself.

00:38:49Told you.

00:38:51Sarah.

00:38:52Sarah.

00:38:53I'll explain later, just... thank you.

00:39:03Oh. Runs itself, doesn't it?

00:39:23Perfect. There you go.

00:39:27And where they want the matcha again or whatever, yeah.

00:39:31Doesn't it look like, um... what's his name?

00:39:37Oh, fuck. What's his name? I can't think of his name.

00:39:41Huh? Jesse Eisenberg?

00:39:46Yeah, Jesse Eisenberg.

00:39:56Nope.

00:39:58What happened to me, given the wrong thing?

00:40:01I'll give him dark coffee.

00:40:11Oh, he's like, fuck you, I don't want your dark coffee.

00:40:22Okay, here we go.

00:40:23I wish I could just dunk it all.

00:40:38Yeah, I can't help it, man. I'm a sucker for these games.

00:40:41It's little cityscapes and everything.

00:40:43Can I leave now?

00:40:53Uh-oh. Oh my god, I'm all alone with this great rough night.

00:40:57Yeah, something like that.

00:41:00Sarah seemed upset. Hope everything's all right at home.

00:41:03I'm sure she'll be fine.

00:41:06I was confused. How did he know that Sarah left early because of her husband?

00:41:10Because he is her husband. Dun-dun-dun. Yeah, relationships can be tricky. One wrong move and everything falls apart.

00:41:18Do you need anything?

00:41:24Nah, just checking in. Making sure my favorite waitress in the city is okay.

00:41:30Thanks, David. I need to get back and finish things up.

00:41:37It's nice, you know, having someone who's always here, reliable, feels personal.

00:41:44I should finish closing up.

00:41:47All right, all right. I'll leave you too. See you soon.

00:41:51Huh?

00:42:03Huh? That's, what's, that's weird.

00:42:05What is?

00:42:07I thought you said you didn't use social media, that ringtone. It's from SnapDog, isn't it?

00:42:13Uh-oh.

00:42:14David, I don't think this is the time.

00:42:16Are you freaking kidding me right now? You lied to me. Why the hell would you do that?

00:42:23David, calm down. You're making a scene. This is not okay.

00:42:29He was furious.

00:42:30Right, right.

00:42:31But the scarier part was him hiding out so well.

00:42:33Have a great shift, Emily.

00:42:46It was pretty late by the time I got home. Closing the cafe alone always took longer than I thought.

00:43:08When I finally stepped inside the lobby, I remember feeling relieved.

00:43:11Just a quiet night ahead. There was some trash I'd been meaning to take out, so I did just that.

00:43:24I guess I've already got the trash.

00:43:27Let's go get it.

00:43:31That creepy old man.

00:43:32I need to take the trash out.

00:43:45Here we go.

00:43:47I seize it.

00:43:52Get my lights on.

00:43:57What's up with all these drugs, man?

00:43:59The kids are always taking so many drugs.

00:44:08Jump scare.

00:44:15There's a dumpster near the keep it clean sign on Maple Street.

00:44:24I have no idea which way that is.

00:44:26It's not that way.

00:44:40Here we go.

00:44:43I think David's going to be around here.

00:44:48Creepy motherfucker.

00:44:50Oh, wonderful.

00:44:51There we go.

00:45:03I've just cleaned up all this shit, too.

00:45:04I knew it, I knew it.

00:45:18You scared me.

00:45:21I knew it.

00:45:23I was throwing trash away to avoid this.

00:45:25I didn't mean to.

00:45:26I didn't know anyone else would be at here this late.

00:45:30Yeah, that's a woman.

00:45:32Looks like Wolverine.

00:45:34Yeah.

00:45:34Just throwing out trash.

00:45:37This street's quailing.

00:45:38Too quailing if you ask me.

00:45:41No one asked you.

00:45:43Yeah.

00:45:48It always starts like that.

00:45:50They got really uncomfortable.

00:45:52I really gotta go, ma'am.

00:46:06Something about her stairs sticks with me.

00:46:08I don't live on Maple Street though.

00:46:21I don't live on Maple Street though.

00:46:33I don't live here.

00:46:39That'd be another jump scare because this will make me run all the way home.

00:46:53The chair always been in.

00:47:12I guess I can just go to bed, right?

00:47:20Uh huh.

00:47:23We're leaving that there.

00:47:36My heart dropped.

00:47:38Oh no.

00:47:40What does it say?

00:47:40Almost your friend?

00:47:53I don't know.

00:47:56Oh damn it.

00:47:57I've told you before, stop stomping around at night.

00:48:00Some of us actually need sleep.

00:48:03Shut up.

00:48:04I swear to God, if I hear one more...

00:48:07Never mind.

00:48:08I am sorry.

00:48:09Just keep it low, kid.

00:48:12Plot twist.

00:48:13He's the killer.

00:48:14And David's going to protect you from him.

00:48:16Man, it just goes right through the door.

00:48:32What's up with that item?

00:48:33They know my old name.

00:48:46I should have closed the phone down.

00:48:48There was something on there I missed.

00:48:50Oh, trippy.

00:48:57Am I under the influence of...

00:49:00Bark narcotics.

00:49:05It had been five days since that night.

00:49:09The note.

00:49:09The messages.

00:49:10I didn't need proof.

00:49:12I knew it was David.

00:49:13I reported it.

00:49:14I reported it.

00:49:15Breaking and entering, harassment.

00:49:17The police got involved, but they couldn't trace anything concrete.

00:49:21We couldn't trace anything concrete, ma'am.

00:49:23The number?

00:49:24It was registered under the name of a woman who had been missing for years.

00:49:30David had vanished.

00:49:31He stopped showing up at the cafe.

00:49:33No texts.

00:49:34No glimpses.

00:49:35Nothing.

00:49:36It was like he melted into the city.

00:49:39And Sarah?

00:49:40She never came back.

00:49:42No goodbye.

00:49:42No explanation.

00:49:44I assumed she was sick.

00:49:45Maybe taking time.

00:49:47But she texted me that day saying she quit.

00:49:50Then, that afternoon, just as I started to feel the silence settle in,

00:49:54there was a knock at the door.

00:50:09Leave me alone, David.

00:50:10You're a freak.

00:50:23I'm going to drink this for 10 minutes.

00:50:32This is my favorite color.

00:50:38I'm going to use the color of the color.

00:50:44I'm going to put the color in the color.

00:50:49I'm not going to give up, is he?

00:51:05Oh, well.

00:51:11Huzzah!

00:51:13Hope I didn't disturb you, sweetheart.

00:51:15No, just wasn't expecting anyone.

00:51:20Listen, I'm heading out of town for a few days.

00:51:23My son, something happened, and I need to be there.

00:51:27Huh? What happened to him?

00:51:30He was attacked a few days ago.

00:51:32Some guy followed him home, jumped him out of nowhere,

00:51:36didn't steal anything, didn't say a word,

00:51:39just beat him up and disappeared.

00:51:41Where are you heading to, Mrs. Jacob?

00:51:44Flatbush. Why?

00:51:45No reason. Just sorry that happened.

00:51:50I need to be there for him.

00:51:52I don't know when I will be back, but just be careful, all right?

00:51:57Lock your doors.

00:51:58People in this neighborhood...

00:51:59He was never a troublemaker.

00:52:09I don't know why someone would attack him.

00:52:12The police couldn't even find the attacker.

00:52:14It was David.

00:52:15I could tell she saw a disturbing look on my face.

00:52:21Have a safe journey, Mrs. Jacob.

00:52:23Hopefully he will be okay, and you will be back soon, too.

00:52:26Oh, shit.

00:52:30Well, she's fast.

00:52:38No, no.

00:52:39Take me with you.

00:52:40Take me with you.

00:52:43Take me with you.

00:52:45Oh, there's nobody in the car.

00:52:47That's creepy.

00:52:48That's creepy.

00:52:52Why don't I check my phone?

00:52:56Fuck, my head hurts.

00:53:12I've been having, like, a migraine all day.

00:53:14There we go, okay.

00:53:44I don't know what I'm supposed to do.

00:54:07Am I supposed to run the cafe?

00:54:12I don't know.

00:54:41Let's go.

00:55:11Okay, people are coming.

00:55:26Yeah.

00:55:30Okay.

00:55:37I forget which thing is.

00:55:39Three?

00:55:41Two?

00:55:53Three?

00:55:54One.

00:55:55I'm going to get the same thing below.

00:56:10Same thing tonight.

00:56:38Okay, that's it.

00:56:41It's so weird.

00:56:49David will be here any second.

00:56:54He's going to be like, hey, you miss me.

00:57:07Oh, okay.

00:57:08I remember that day.

00:57:15It was late and I was alone.

00:57:18With this pounding headache, I couldn't shake.

00:57:21Closing up took longer than usual.

00:57:23Maybe I was just drained.

00:57:24Maybe something fell off.

00:57:26All I wanted was to get back to my apartment and sleep it off.

00:57:30My mom was visiting the next day.

00:57:31And for once, I actually felt excited about something.

00:57:35But what happened next still send shivers down my spine.

00:57:38Here we go.

00:57:41Here we go.

00:57:46It's so dark.

00:58:00It looks blurrier than normal.

00:58:21Okay, so that's the cafe.

00:58:41Oh, I can open it.

00:58:48No way.

00:58:52Oh, that's so cool.

00:58:53Oh, there's no cups on the counter.

00:59:02That kind of sucks.

00:59:04It's so dark.

00:59:06Oh my god.

00:59:06It's dark.

00:59:07Okay.

00:59:07I think I want this one already to.

00:59:13So, let's go down here.

00:59:18Fuck the apartment.

00:59:25Like, how's it?

00:59:29I don't like that noise.

00:59:30Because I think it has a tiny little city yard.

00:59:35I've never found a way home.

00:59:39Oh my god.

00:59:40Yeah.

00:59:58Awesome.

01:00:00I'll try again.

01:00:08That's useless.

01:00:30Okay.

01:00:31I'm inside it now.

01:00:37Pretty sure.

01:00:38911.

01:00:39What's your emergency?

01:00:40Please.

01:00:41I need you to be calm and to explain your address.

01:00:48I'm in my apartment.

01:00:5129 Maple Street.

01:00:54Please.

01:00:54The way he's moving.

01:01:11Oh man.

01:01:13There you are, Elizabeth.

01:01:14You don't answer my messages.

01:01:17You run.

01:01:18Oh shit.

01:01:19Nice.

01:01:21David made some loud noises.

01:01:25The old man was a kid.

01:01:29He warned us.

01:01:30He warned us.

01:01:31He said next time you make some loud noises.

01:01:33I don't know what happened.

01:01:36If he hadn't shown up when he did.

01:01:39Mrs. Jacobs said she noticed something was off in my face that day.

01:01:44Told the old neighbor to keep an eye on me just in case.

01:01:47That neighbor was the same man I'd been quietly growing uncomfortable with.

01:01:53Always lingering by the hallway.

01:01:55Always too curious.

01:01:57I never imagined he'd be the one to save me.

01:02:01I didn't scream.

01:02:02I didn't move.

01:02:03I was just frozen in that wardrobe.

01:02:06And when the door creaked open, I thought it was the end.

01:02:10But he was there, that old man, swinging a damn frying pan like a movie hero.

01:02:17No hesitation.

01:02:20David went down hard.

01:02:21And just like that, it was over.

01:02:26But the truth is, David had been isolating me long before that night.

01:02:32He hurt Mrs. Jacobs' son.

01:02:35Set her rushing away from the city.

01:02:37He fed lies to Sarah's husband.

01:02:40Until she had no choice but to leave.

01:02:44One by one, the people around me.

01:02:47Until it's just him and me.

01:02:50I wish I could say I'm okay now.

01:02:53That it didn't leave marks.

01:02:56That it didn't leave marks, I still carry.

01:02:59But I'm healing.

01:03:01Slowly.

01:03:02Because even in a city full of strangers,

01:03:05sometimes someone still cares.

01:03:08And then there's someone who watches out,

01:03:12frying pan, in hand,

01:03:14quiet, carefully,

01:03:16just enough.

01:03:18You never really see it coming.

01:03:20Not until that smile lingers too long.

01:03:23The questions get too personal.

01:03:25And the kindness feels like

01:03:27that's how it starts.

01:03:31With someone being

01:03:32a little too friendly.

01:03:35Please leave a review.

01:03:39I sure will.

01:03:40Very, very enjoyable game.

01:03:43A little short for $3.99.

01:03:45But not terrible.

01:03:46The Fierce the Fathom games are around $5 anyway.

01:03:51Not going to complain about spending $4.

01:03:53It's not a big deal.

01:03:54So, yeah, solid.

01:03:57Very, very solid.

01:03:59Yeah, we check out a lot of games

01:04:00that are pretty buns

01:04:02compared to Fierce the Fathom.

01:04:04But this one is legit.

01:04:06This is a decent one.

01:04:07So, I'd like to thank you all
