09:54a new building's being dedicated in Derek Wright's name
09:58i'll explain in the car
10:00yeah
10:00I thought this was where Rebecca worked but at least the bouncer was cool enough to tell us where she transferred to
10:07yeah he told us that after we paid the cover charge
10:09here's what i think we should do we go back inside for investigation purposes only just to make sure we're heading in the right direction they had a great OJ in there so let's just go
10:17professor jackson
10:18huh
10:19what are we gonna go to right now
10:20our uber's probably still right there
10:24every building the squid has hit so far was funded by an exploitative capitalist
10:30thurman
10:31thurman use child labor kudus manipulated the markets and Derek Wright it's just the worst
10:38i'll tell you that's some darn good detective work
10:41i got the christy would have been so proud i mean a little conflicted but yeah so proud
10:47oh 5-0 is everywhere
10:48bro you sure the squid will risk it if i know the squid and after the last 24 hours i feel like i do they're close by

15:31yeah
15:32the squid's work speaks to me in a language
15:35speaks to me in a language i just
15:37can't describe
15:38it inspires me to slow down and breathe
15:42smile
15:43cry
15:44live
15:48this doesn't make me feel any of that
15:51hmm
