Hey there Foundation staff, Sherm here. Welcome to Skip Dictation Live February 14th Valentine's Day Edition 2018. So you might notice something new. I've got new tech. That's why this stream is about 15 minutes late. I've been setting up my new editing headphones to my adapter to my condenser so now I can monitor my recording in progress like the professionals do. So this is a new incredible frontier of being able to record. So now when we do all these voices I'm gonna know if it goes wrong before it goes wrong and I'll tell you what the first thing that I find when doing having an actual monitor into my microphone is I can hear all of the background noise. I can hear the entire world around me in a way that I can't normally. So this is going to bring a whole new world into the art of recording these voiceovers. And while I've been stalling talking about my shiny new headphones I'm also trying to pull up the chat. So one thing that's going to make this weird is that every time my laptop makes a ping sound I can hear it now where it doesn't make a sound normally. So I can hear all my computer sounds and it's crazy. And I can hear the world around me and I can hear myself in the microphone. Oh my lord this is going to change things man. This is a real game changer. We're going to make things happen. Okay here we are. So we got lull know what I will ma something as it go and notice me sent by what's up Ellen is here. Sea jobs is here. So in case you're new to the channel this show is for hanging out with me while I record SCP readings. This is behind the scenes stuff. You can ask questions about the recordings the SCP videos and I'll chat in between. So I'm going to set up my audacity. I now have microphone monitoring. This is really weird. Okay so open a new audacity window. I'm going to have to remember to replace that thing. Audacity. All right now you'll notice that for skip dictation live the title is now a bunch of is just a date rather than a bunch of readings. That's because I'm going to attempt to go through as many as I can on each day. So let me give you a run through of today's readings. Our reading list for today we have ground control which is a tail based on a skip that synthetic alien did. So we're going to do the tail and then link to his video which is going to be cool. Meanwhile once I get that out of the way because I've only got to record about two or three words for that because the rest of it is sat-pout-cut-a-duck sat-pout-cut-a-duck our favorite SCP are bought so he did most of it because it's a Russian accent but I'm going to cover those words. Then 3444-4 I have to get out of the way because there's a musical number coming up for it but that shouldn't be too long. After that we're going into patreon requests so we've got date night and scp 939 from witness then I think it was Lachios Lachios who asked me to do 2761 and 2761 at the very least I'm going to need a girl to play pearl a girl to play pearl so we're going to go through these along the way and if I have time at the end of today I'm going to go through and do a diminished thing which is a Dr. Spanko tail yes and I'm going to follow that up with scp 1048 because my version of scp 1048 is broken someone commented on the video and apparently it's been up for two years but it cuts off halfway through and I didn't know that so I've got to go and I thought to myself well I could just re-upload the version I had before but I've gotten so much better at this since then so I'm just going to remaster it because 1048 is a really good scp and I'd like to start it from the beginning and do it right and for everybody in the site 42 discord the contest for the t-shirt contest is going to end after this stream because I can't judge the t-shirt contest on stream while I'm recording and final note in case you're new to the channel hi my name sherm this is site 42 we mainly do scp readings which you're seeing the behind the scenes of now we also have guest artists do scp readings if they can do like high quality we teach people how to do scp readings and then I also do small explainer videos and apparently witness says thank you for her request you're welcome uh oh no pabs is having love life problems god help us all but now it's time to get 30 seconds of silence for noise correction for our first reading of the day so everybody it's time to meditate yes all right so we have our noise correction silence in the room now to open up our first reading of the day which is scp net slash ground control ground control to major tom actually know the words to that song delete delete delete control sat pout cut it up did all of this so the only thing I have to do is evil demon voices of the italics so all right so let's see we've got to say let go you can return home they want you home look how they try you can't hold out much longer wrong wrong wrong oh we do something creepy for that i'm gonna do like echoey voice and weirdness nice can't stop weak pitiful thing you will fall home okay so that's all the lines let's line this up and words presence and this presence was with him does it say anything he wasn't drifting he was being pulled the presence it felt wrong so he stopped it he's not sure how he caught himself the presence raged okay so good we have some emotion here that's what it means so if you're gonna act it out do the best to actually match what the text says right okay here we go it was a false warm a false feeling of hope let go no what the heck was that that was terrible let's let's oh no no let's go you can return home they want you home look how they try you can't hold out much longer wrong wrong wrong wrong okay i gotta move this a little bit so a little bit of that take spiked on the volume so i gotta redo that last part wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong good memes ruined by kevin spacey damn it hello brad barman welcome to the stream wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong nice we got it all right copy pasta that and on to the next sentence that felt wrong but what he didn't expect is for it to oh how the present presence raged stop weak pitiful thing you will fall home all right and that's all for this one that's a shorty i'm just gonna give that a quick listen thank you see jobs voice acting 101 is if you make the facial expressions your voices come out more like the way you want them to so when you watch people who like professionally voice act you'll see them do all these stupid faces because it's acting it's just you can't see them act and that last one's gonna be neat that last home because he's saying i'll finally come home and then i'm gonna put my home over his all right so this is ground control that was quick do do do let's save the file do do do do ground control do do do insert that into sat conduct stream add that to the editing list that way i don't forget to do it unedited ground control for sat excellent and we're back and the next reading in our lineup is 344-3444-4 3444-4 so let's all take a stroll to scp 3444 which okay i don't want to be that arrogant guy who thinks he's so cool because i'm not cool or nothing but i'm just noticing that when i started recording scp 3444 it was like at a plus 50 upvotes and now that i've put out three episodes it's at like plus 69 plus 69 i think i i don't think i had anything to do that i think i had something to do with that i didn't have nothing to do with that i might have something to do with that probably didn't have anything to do with that we don't we don't need a sherman guy saying our things although the next episode this one that we're doing now has an original musical number oh my god we're doing scp the musical for real real pen guineater wrote a song and he performed it and one of my friends back home who's a professional singer is gonna sing it and we have an original musical number based on tufto's lyrics that they wrote in this skip i'm so excited for scp the musical you don't even understand okay here is scp 3444 let's knock this sucker out audacity file oh wait before i do that let me just copy and paste the 30 seconds of noise correction i don't need to do it every time track new boom there we go don't have to meditate every time if you just copy pasta the noise correction okay here we go oh god my brain just went blank what did i do before i need to make sure the format is the same every time so i have to listen to the opening of the last video and make sure that i didn't accidentally um i don't know say something weird like how it starts oh damn it that's number one i need number three scp 3444-3 opens up to some form of open okay cool i did not open it in any way that's good so i just dove straight into it i'm philip the franco let's jump right into this that was that was bad that was let's let's cut that there's a live stream just censor that whoever's doing youtube just cut that we don't need it we don't need it okay okay here we go 3444-4 time for action scp 3444 opens onto an urban area stylistically reminiscent of that found in scp 3444-3 the area is typically portrayed as sorry i have facebook messages coming in and so they uh interrupted my reading ability they caught my eye line yeah like in golf there's a rule where you're not supposed to walk between someone and the hole while they're putting or like in front of them so that they can see you because you don't want to draw their eyeline and distract them that's like the same for everything like don't walk in someone in front of someone really playing video games don't walk in front of someone when they're shooting pool or in this case don't walk in front of someone when they're reading a script because it makes it really hard to keep reading so how far did i get before that happened okay so i made it one whole sentence this this bodes well okay okay the area is typically portrayed as some form of slum or poor neighborhood at this point the cognitive hazardous effects ordinarily begin to alter not just the actions of the subject but their personality too they will consciously take on the role of someone living within a slum or house within the neighborhood attempting to become successful at their chosen field but instead relegated to a less desirable form of employment the scp 344-9 instances will often be hostile to the subject either through aggression or through attempts to take advantage of the subject's vulnerability after these interactions the subject will perform a soliloquy or for golden events running the musical script a solo musical piece discussing their condition before returning to scp 344-1 please consult experiment log 344-15 for more information experiment log s drat editing so good at my job i don't mess up that much experiment log 344-15 section four so it's crazy i never realized how much this coat makes noise before i got a headphone monitor like i can just constantly hear this coat wrestling like all the time like this is really frustrating like i gotta stand really still that's okay so lab coats are good for critique lab when i don't have to record but can't do a coat from recording because i can't yeah now i can move my hands a freaking a funny thing about italian people is they can't talk when their hands are tied so now i can't do anything else unless i can move a little bit all right and uh lano what of them asks what is your favorite scp if i may ask access sco sxp scp so i have a couple favorite scps uh first and foremost is my scp that i wrote which is scp 3806 that's wrong no it's 3086 3086 is my scp so it holds a special place in my heart i may write another one update one day but i haven't finished any drafts yet beyond that my favorite not by me uh is a 3999 which is amazing people say it's bad all the time but it's good it's well written it's just not people's favorite flavor of skip and that's fine if you don't like it it's fine if you think it's bad you're wrong don't at me fight me whatever beyond that uh 3043 and 3143 which are the murphy laws along with never met a fictional character i didn't like the murphy law series is quick is by far my favorite canon it's gonna be a canon soon someone else just need to write some murphy law stuff and it'll be great um and then for joke scps i like 008-j because jiff is just a nice guy he just wants to find the gents mate we should be facebook friends smiley face jeff is such a great dude and i want to hang out with him except he'd get lost and we never get to hang out so yes 3999 the three the murphy law series and jeff 008-j subject d508 a female from vermont usa convicted of the premeditated murder of her boyfriend keith baker this experiment is notable for being the first occasion on which the musical script was activated in which each silver event features an elaborately choreographed musical number summary of prior silver events at scp 3444-2 origins the station opened onto an orchard in vermont yeah i said an because i want to say a and then i changed it to an so i said an brad says uh that he is thinking about writing an scp document soon but struggling to get started the only reason i wrote one at all is because i was in a discord server i was in the scp declassified discord and i had this really good idea uh and law what wants longer what wants to know by scp about so my idea was what if fred scp 423 was evil just flat out that was my first thought is what if this sentient fictional entity was evil okay well what could he do well he can't do anything unless he has different powers than fred so maybe instead of changing from story to story and like going in between them he multiplied so that he was in every story okay well how does he do that well if he makes contact with a book he spreads or if he's mentioned he comes into being and so it turned my scp is audio because everything i do is scp's is audio so it's an scp about a thing you can't describe in text or pictures because it will create an instance so you had to speak the entire thing so that's my scp it's like an 11 minute long audio tape or you can just read it because i left the script there that way people who couldn't had didn't have time to listen could at least read it even though i know it's not in universe oh well you can't type about it but you typed about it yeah i get it origins the station opened onto an orchard in vermont a small farmhouse containing scp 3444-9-a was located 50 meters away from scp 3444-2 scp 3444-9-a took the form of d2508's father the instance appeared to have him bide the large quantity of alcohol and spent much of his dialogue blaming d508 drat 25 continuing large quantity of alcohol and spent much of his dialogue blaming d2508 for her mother's death don't stumble on the number and spent much of his dialogue blaming gosh darn it i don't feel like i'm coming from the sentence right let me hear what i said large quantity of alcohol and spent much of his dialogue blaming d2508 for her mother's death upon leaving the farmhouse d2508 sang a musical piece about how she wished to leave the countryside drat i can't read far enough ahead to get these words right d2508 upon leaving the farmhouse upon leaving the farmhouse d2508 sang a musical piece about how she wished to leave the countryside and attain some form of success in the city before returning to scp 3444-2 at scp 3444-3 bright lights the station opened on to time square new york city as of 2001 d2508 entered through several shops located around time square while singing a musical number along with several scp 3444-9 instances acting as background singers and dancers about her hopes for life in the city once the musical number had finished d2508 returned to scp 3444-3 begin long the station opens on to a street in new york lined on i feel like i said that wrong actually i said that perfectly okay hold on the chat just all right so what is this whole bowling ball game i don't i haven't seen it i saw it in like a discord server the other night and i don't know what's going on can anyone tell me what's up with this whole bowling ball thing it's a bullying ball something is that just is that the whole joke is it like a picture of a bully ball and then you be mean to somebody i don't i i miss this one like it's not under my radar i'm not sure what's going on with this i just see a picture of bowling ball and then people are like ban the bowling ball what what what's going on i miss the i didn't show up in time for this meme guys i was like to the party i missed it let's cut that cool okay we got that cut now in new york lined on both sides by rundown deprivated housing blocks unlike the rest of the locales visited which appear to take place in the early 2000s the appearance of the buildings is more akin to new york in the early 1990s d2508 exits scp 3444-4 and walks into the street she is swiftly approached by an scp 3444-9 instance apparently representing her boss what the hell are you doing sander wow missy okay that's a little loud i'm gonna have to bring down the volume on that voice so i don't blow out the speaker for the mic so let's do a little editing cut that to where i want it yeah so lavish is looking for the skip proposal link youtube comments chats don't seem to let you post links so if you want to throw that in the site 42 discord server maybe under like the general or the scp general channels then i can check it out in there because i have the discord pulled up i just stick to the chat because that's who's actually watching right now so that's most of the chat i need to see but we can also look at there along the way continuing on audacity just a pinch the smallest pinch hello oh no my what are you doing what are you doing i can't believe you're waiting what the hell are you doing standing around missy come on tables ain't gonna wait themselves huh this is gonna be fun this guy's uh this guy's a blast he's such a nice dude they're an scp that you absolutely hate or just cringe when you read it hating guy like because like at one point i thought scp 3300 the rain was like really boring and i didn't like it but then i did a researchers notes on it because someone requested it and i studied it and i was like oh well there are good things in here and i can see why someone else would like it even if i don't so that's a that's the kind of guy i'm like even if i don't like something i kind of find ways to like it but all the time i had i can't think of any that i like despise like that's that's like super negative like don't don't be a dick don't don't be mean just just be nice just have fun we all writing things huh could be fun could be nice let's see maybe you shouldn't make those loud noises you're making the tables break okay that's the right volume that's how i want to say it that's how it's gotta be round missy come on the tables ain't gonna wait themselves there's no that dang it you do when standing around missy come on tables ain't gonna wait themselves asks if 3456 is coming soon and actually that reminds me to bother vulgar so i'm

that's just because i make funny voices all the time even when they're really bad voices that's what i do let's put that in the list of things the end and the girly lines will be added in by my singer so hey i dare you to read scp527-d you should put that in the reading request put the link in there that way i know to find it in the site 42 discord server make it make a link in the reading request channel that way i can find it later because there's a lot of requests i'm trying to catch up it's uh it's been a busy month all right what the hell you doing standing around blah blah blah and now the boss instance walks away the boss instance walks away another scp344-9 instance bearing a strong resemblance to keith baker then approaches d2508 all right so that was that was the boss he was really angry and he's kind of like carol from aquatine hunger force except i'm not really good at that voice or any voice but i just make sounds with my mouth and it happens so hey what are you gonna do so now keith damn it girl you're breaking my heart you know that i've been slaving away at work all day yes that's where it is that's the guy god it's almost like john travolta in greece but it's a little not quite the same but it's and it's gotta be higher it's gotta be higher a little bit damn it girl you're breaking my heart yes that's what it's all about okay damn it girl you're breaking my heart you know that i'm enslaving away at work all day the least you can do is get me my god damn suffer i should be the one bringing in the dough me that's my job isn't it my fucking purpose is a man for god's sake i thought we were trying for a baby fuck you be back before midnight or you'll get what you deserve at this point d2508 begins to sing all right let's see how we spiked the mic i didn't check this i didn't spike that i can go with that all right keith what a douche what a skadoosh right and now song song song song song the music and singing abruptly end d2508 oh oh oh wait oh gosh okay so i better record that then i better tell penguin what that is the music and singing abruptly end d2508 stands still for 20 seconds before speaking again okay i'm glad i caught that uh right now the musical number that we have that penguin wrote ends with like this big dramatic swell and it keeps growing and it keeps growing and it keeps growing until the final line but it's not supposed to it's supposed to stop penguin penguin discord server penguin penguin penguin hey dude three four four four four and i just saw a thing check this out at the end the music and singing abruptly end d2508 stands still for 20 seconds before speaking again so she kind of stands there in silence so we don't really want to uh i come back and the chat's like but it sounds really cool don't don't do that take some artistic license bro don't don't change it it's such a cool song it's such a cool ending do it that way man artistic license i see what you mean though that it builds and it builds and it builds and then it sounds dramatic at the end so actually hold up the chat i'm streaming while i message you because i'm dumb says it sounds awesome and we shouldn't change it i'm going to ask the author about taking artistic license because maybe they're into it uh tufdo has been paying attention on the uh has been following on reddit all the episodes so i'm gonna be like hey private message i've got a question for you yeah so send a message it's the wiki everything is artistic license you don't make a good point that is that is fair right you're right artistic license it sounds really cool i'm not gonna mess with it i am making a decision in the name of art i i don't make i don't take artistic license a lot but i usually go for accuracy but no license license forget i'm just gonna delete it all i'm gonna assume he hasn't seen it just delete delete delete he's offline he won't know i got rid of it forget everything i said we are doing it live in the name of art okay okay back to finishing this reading so i can get on to more readings so here's the chat the chat is back back to the chat in the next okay so did i say nlog i might have not said nlog yet before speaking and log summary of subsequent silver events at three four four four drag really really dang it oh no oh no please tell me i didn't do it wrong every time i didn't do it wrong every time please tell me i

nothing is ruined nothing's fine nothing is ruined continuing on at scp 3444-5 first site the station opened onto a french restaurant in manhattan scp 3444-9-b appeared as a copy of d508 i got confused by her number 2508 is a really hard number for me apparently 2508 is just the hardest number in the world for me to say let's try that again scp 3444 3444 is also really difficult apparently scp 3444-9-b appeared as a copy of d2508's acquaintance jake of manwell the two sing a duet concerning forbidden love at scp 3444-6 big break the station opened onto the ticket office of a different train station d2508 bought a ticket to albany new york state before engaging in a solo song concerning themes of romantic love and heartbreak at scp 3444-7 love the station opened onto a woodland and upstate new york d2508 met scp 3444 there's a weird hyphen in here i don't think it's supposed to be there continuing on continuing on 34 3444 would be easier to say but it's not official enough you gotta sound fancy so 3444 must dictate d2508 met scp 3444-9-b the two that engaged in an passionate duet in which they proclaimed their love for one another the sound of an alarm was then heard d2508 then ran back into scp 3444-7 at scp 3444-8 climax the station opened onto time square again several policemen were present telling d2508 that she had been completely exonerated from the murder of the baker instance in response d2508 initiated an elaborate musical number involving all the scp 3444-9 instances present including scp 3444-9-b concerning her new found freedom desire to stay in the city and relationship with scp 3444-9-b at scp 3444 is in second control z control z is the best sc job said gosh darn don't mess everything up there we go we're good we're good everything's fine at scp 3444 second manifestation wake up scp 3444-9-b and the baker instance appeared on either side of d2508 after she stepped onto the platform piano music in the key of e-minor could be heard as scp 3444-9-b attempted to encourage d2508 while the baker instance attempted to denigrate denigrate is a word that you don't see very often that's okay okay denigrate denigrates what we're gonna say good vocabulary word of the day all right all right attempted to encourage d2508 while the baker instance attempted to denigrate to while the while the baker instance attempted to denigrate d2508 d2508 was noted as being visually upset at their appearance swiftly exiting scp 3444 done we got it it's in the box we got it done it's over 3444 is ready so now my part of this is done so let's save this

exquisite do you want to one three zero really outdid himself tonight he gestured to one of the several d-class personnel in attendance more why d two three eight seven nine wrong number wrong number why are they five digit d classes why are you doing this to me whoever wrote this i don't need this you're making my life difficult for no reason eight nine seven right away dr clef the man in the orange jumpsuit said nervously stepping up to the table and refilling his glass with a particularly crisps chardonnay crisp fixed and there right away dr clef nervously stepping up to the table and refilling his glass with a particularly crisps chardonnay crisp crisp is a word crisp is a word that exists and it's a word i can say crisp i'll start with the man in the orange jumpsuit here we go the man in the orange jumpsuit said nervously stepping up to the table and refilling his glass with a particularly crisp chardonnay clef lifted the glass to his mouth took a sip inside with satisfaction this is nice he said smiling at his guest we should do this more often don't you agree across the table scp 173 stand back at him unmoving silent five d-class personnel were positioned around the living statue their eyes fixed on it cold sweat dripping down their faces as they struggled not to blink not to break eye contact not even for a second a six man stood directly next to 173 trembling with terror as he lifted spoonfuls of fennel soup up to its face smearing the contents where its mouth shouldn't be in may i just say how lovely you look tonight darling clef said his eyes moving appreciatively over the black evening dress covering the statue's curves the blonde lustrous hair of the wig on its head its rouge stone cheeks i was going to wait until later but seeing you like this i just uh look at me you have me babbling like a schoolboy i don't know what it is about you you've always had that effect on me scp 173 looked on ellen i can't stop laughing oh no please

always had that effect on me scp 173 looked on its stone features blank impassive anyway clef said i got you a little something to show you how much i appreciate you being here sharing this evening with me cleft to reach into his cleft cleft that's not how you say that name this word it does not mean what i do not think it means what do you think it means oh salt a finger guns i guess you could say 173 looks pretty snappy for those who can't see the chat later on that's the joke just want to make sure everyone in the future got to appreciate that rapier wit cleft reached into his pocket took out a small flat box handing it to d23897 who was standing nearby the man took the box and went around to the other side of the table his heart rate rising as he approached 173 open it darling cleft said d23897 opened the box revealing a gold necklace inlaid with dozens of small diamonds it should be the right size i had it made especially for you go ahead put it on cleft smiled d23897 removed the necklace from the box and reluctantly tied it around 173's neck wincing his fingers brushed against the cold hard cement surface cleft was momentarily at a loss for words it suits you to perfection he said at last god you're beautiful i feel like i never want to take my eyes off of you at that profite at that profice profice actually for the chat let's say oh no scp scp 173 is the best waifu scp porno rule 34 is about to break the internet what dating sim is this cleft's paying the 173 dating sim q let's get it on is let's get it on a berry white song or is it now green song because we specifically have berry white so i think what we're listening to right now is actually my darling i can't get enough your love baby i wish i were in a tenor i would sound way better if i were not a tenor there's can't get enough of your love babe all right yes exactly okay so here's the thing in these videos you have to use royalty free music so you can monetize without getting sued but uh i think for the sake of art i'm going to pull a lord bong and i'm just gonna use the real song because the the art is worth it to not actually uh use a fake song when a real song cue isn't it so i think i'm gonna do that for the art that precise moment can't get enough of your love babes began to let's try that again with about 10 percent less suck at that precise moment can't get enough of your love babe began to play cleft felt his heart flutter it's our song he breathed as berry white's rumbling voice filled the air cleft found himself staring into 173's alien painted on eyes losing himself in their deaths you know he said after a moment his voice now a little more than a husky whisper i'm gonna say that better c job says you two might let you license that song for extra ads i wonder if that's a thing i had not known about that i will have to check it out and see if i can use that all right so you know you know you know he said after a moment his voice now a little more than a husky whisper i'm suddenly not very hungry anymore what do you say we retire for the night cleft was lying in his ample bed 173 at his side the lush satin sheets in disarray around of them the de glass personnel were standing in a circle around the bed 10 pairs of eyes that had not left the statue for the last two hours i can't tell you how much these little tristavars mean to me cleft was murmuring in 173's ear running site 19 all that responsibility all those lives depending on me it gets so exhausting you're a miracle worker you know you really his train of thought was interrupted by a series of hushed whispers two of the de glass personnel seemed to be having an argument cleft clear his throat loudly one second i've gotta do something real quick sometimes i have to actually respond to the messages that come onto my phone for business purposes so okay soul seem to be having an argument seem to be having an argument cleft cleared his throat loudly do you mind i gotta actually clear my throat cleft cleared his throat loudly do you mind d23897 i got the number right i had just so many digits that i didn't realize i got it right dang it trat 23897 d283 now i get it wrong d23897 snapped to attention i'm sorry sir it's d45931 he hasn't slept in a couple of days and he was starting to nod off i told him he had to keep his eyes open oh i see well actually that's not necessary d23897 oh no oh no first of all i really wish we had a better number for this d class so i could not say this number nine times d23897 frowned confused but sir the statue i won't deny she could be a feisty one what with those fiesta states of hers but as long as i'm around she won't try anything so there's no danger d23897 asked that's right no need to worry now if that's all cleft said i'd like to get back to then why are we here so now i need to make sure i don't spike my microphone while i yell this hey all right volume goes down volume goes down just a little just a little then why are we here nope sound test lower then why are we here then why are we here nope still quieter then why are we here why did you make a stay oh that's better so now i'll add in the little bit in between the cleft says or the narrator says d23897 nearly shouted in disbelief nearly shouted okay that's fine that's i'm almost shouting but i'm not really shouting because i'm in a room so i didn't actually shout okay cleft gave the man a strange look the hint of an unhinged smile playing on his features i just like it when people watch darn it that's a thing that's a thing now that exists in our lives can't escape it all right so that is the end of date night save project date night gig-a-d gig-a-d gig-a-d gig-a-d let's take it down and go to put this in the editing file so we know to do it at some point date night next in line we are going to run at scp2761 so i'll save this was beautiful thank you now bullying ball we gotta we gotta wait on that one that one's gotta be in the lineup i still gotta get through all of today's work i got some patron stuff to do i got stuff i gotta get recorded for different episodes for different people gotta gotta do my job part here we go and i keep forgetting to pull up the right one and get the noise correction copy file new put away close control shift new track paste noise correction got it good continue have i done bees asked cjop i have not done bees although i know vulgan has done bees and i tend to aim at ones that haven't been done as much because my channel is very small so if i do when someone else is done they just go to the one with the person with the more people so like no one else is done 3999 or 3001 and that's why those videos are popular if vulgan does 3999 or 3001 people are gonna go to those videos because he has like 10 20 2000 50 000 25 times 25 times as many subscriptions as me so he gets a little better of an ad boost we'll get to it down the line because it is a fun story bees is who actually bees is really artistically fun because it's like gibbering madness and i like gibbering madness that's what 3001 was all about was gibbering madness so maybe maybe that'll get higher than i thought it might but for now haha let's go to hit up what time is it do i have to go to work yet i have time for one more i have time for one more okay so scp two seven six one go all right so this is the one with a really long interview log so chit chat chit chat chit chat all right starting at the top don't start recording if you forgot to breathe that's stupid breathing is important item number scp two seven six one object class euclid special containment procedures scp two seven six one is currently stored in a lead lined class b semi aquatic containment unit in site 71 clearance for scp two seven two seven two seven right through the gut through some stuff before failure struck again clearance for scp two seven six one research is available to level two personnel and higher research of scp two seven six one genetics is limited to level three personnel and above though carnivorous scp two seven six one must be supplied a steady diet of fruit to minimize the carcinogen output in its waste as such site 71 personnel assigned to scp two six seven one two seven six one two seven six one get the number right don't mess it up get the number right don't mess it up if you ever thought voice acting was glamorous you were wrong it's ridiculous site 71 personnel assigned to scp two seven six one must set aside time to restock food supplies every week description scp two seven six one is a genetic hybrid species that is undergone multiple physical myth let's do better let's not suck as bad who set pout kind of duck is here huzzah and we did uh i got ground control all set so we got that online so i will edit that now that i have my stuff and your stuff and we can put it together it'll be great and then we'll link it to synthetic alien all the channels coming together in friendship okay so description scp two seven six one is a genetic hybrid species that has undergone multiple physical mutations since its containment in 2005 it initially possessed amphibious and piecing traits pissing pissing i know that because i had to do another one that mentioned pissing traits and i was like certainly it can't be pissing right they wouldn't do that but they did do that it's pissing that's how you say that word since its containment in 2005 it initially possessed amphibious and pissing traits similar to those of species found within the florida everglades first i mess up that take in second oh god it's a florida scp everything's weirder in florida oh no what are you doing to my home state why are why would you do this gosh it initially possessed it initially possessed amphibious and pissing traits similar to those found of species within so many words in this one wordy you're wordy you have weird words in extra places it initially possessed amphibious and pissing traits similar to those of species found within the florida everglade everglades everglades i lived there i can say the name of it i didn't actually live in the everglades i lived in central florida so that doesn't count it initially possessed amphibious and pissing traits similar to those of species found within the florida everglades where it was originally discovered but it's since developed more reptilian features as a mater mater theme a mater theme mater theme as a mater theme mater theme sufferin suckatash as of may 13th 2016 as of mace as of may 13th 20 2016 officially it's not 20 it's not fancy enough as of may 13th 2016 as of may 13th 2016 scp 2761 measures 12 meters in length and resembles a large hunchbacked bipedal alligator with a large mouth structure it's not a large mouth structure it's just with a mouth structure with a mouth structure similar to that of Karchuk Karchuk Karnik Kacchuk Partelukish balshark Karchauerness Karchauerness Lucas all right, we're going to google tch tch tch to learn how to say tch tch tch the latin genus tch tch of Karchauerness Lucas pronunciation How to pronounce cartoonist, cartoonous, cartoonist Lucas, cartoonist Lucas is the name of the shark, cartoonist Lucas, we're gonna say it right, cartoonist Lucas, I'm not gonna get it wrong, cartoonist Lucas, here it comes now. With a mouth structure, that's where I start.  SCP-2761 possesses a notably yellow skin coloration, a peddled flexible frill that can conceal and protect its face and con- Alright, so I said consistently instead of constantly, but you know what? I said cartoonist Lucas right on the first try. So how about that? What the heck was that? No one saw that coming. I didn't have to say that nine times. And constantly exudes a scent described as smelling like overripe bananas. Additionally, SCP-2761 possesses biohazardous blood, at least 32 known genetic carcinogens and dozens of known hazardous bacteria strains, including clostridium tetanide, clostridium tetanide, E. coli, and streptococcus. Okay, we're gonna do this. It's gonna happen. Let's... Okay, test run. At least 32 known genetic carcinogens and dozens of known hazardous bacteria strains, including clostridium tetanide, E. coli, and streptococcus. Including clostridium tetanide, E. coli, and streptococcus are present. We got it. Alright, here we go. At least 32 known genetic carcinogens and dozens of known hazardous bacteria strains, including clostridium tetanide, E. coli, and streptococcus are present. It appears its gut flora also constantly produces even more of the former. However, instead of causing SCP-2761 harm, it appears these compounds and bacteria are beneficial for it, inciting even further mutations over time. Strangely, despite all the mutations of SCP... ...Drat. Sometimes I just add a word, because it's fun to add words where they're not supposed to be. Strangely. Despite all the mutations SCP-2761 has undergone, it has never shown signs of any cancers or tumors. SCP-2761 cells each possess an extremely large nucleus, with the genomes containing hundreds of spliced genes from other various species. Apart from its primary genome, the nuclei also contain at least 68 other unaltered sets of DNA from various species. These unaltered genomes have never shown signs of major mutation, despite SCP-2761's blood being full of mutagens. Instead of breaking down and causing major long-term health problems, SCP-2761's genome will rapidly rearrange and replace lost segments with DNA from the unaltered genomes, inciting SCP-2761's gradual changes in physical appearance. It is possible that SCP-2761 somehow absorbed... Oh, cancel. So what happened there is it's using it as a... It's using a non-S word as a plural, and that's what I got confused. Hello, Daibu-man who welcome to the stream. We are halfway through SCP-2761 at current. Changes in physical appearance. It is possible that SCP-2761 somehow absorb and express these genomes through the organisms. Through the organisms. It is possible that SCP-2761 somehow absorb and express these genomes through the organisms it eats. Addendum 2716... Bah! Try again! Maybe try not sucking. How about that Sherman? You can do that. You can't do that. Okay, here we go. Through the organisms it eats. Addendum 2761-1. Investigation into SCP-2761 uncovered information pertaining to a company known as Aquagene, a pet storefront that sells heavily genetically modified aquarium fish. Their selection is primarily made up of fish that exhibit color patterns not seen in their natural species, such as bioluminescence and exalic... Exalic. Such as bioluminescence and exotic color themes. SCP-2761 was apparently part of a set of prototypes for their next installment, Sentifruti Fish trademark. Below is an interview of Dr. Pearl Watkins, 29, and Dr. Matthew Nakamura, 41, two employees and genetic scientists at Aquagene. Interview SCP-2761-1, March 14, 2005. Interviewed. Dr. Pearl Watkins. Let me do that in high voice too. Interviewed. Dr. Pearl Watkins and Dr. Marcus Nakamura. Interviewer. Researcher Matthew Liu. Forward. The purpose of this interview was to obtain information on SCP-2761 and possible motive behind its creation. Dr. Watkins and Dr. Nakamura were brought to an office near Site-71 for questioning, under the guise of an EPA questioning. Begin log, 1320. 1320 hours. And back in there. And we got it, and we're good. And interview. Okay. So, Dr. Watkins, Dr. Nakamura. Alright, so I need a female to voice Pearl. So, I'll get that later. I need someone to voice Pearl. Probably... We'll see who's open. Okay, so let's go down. Everyone else though. Dr. Watkins. Dr. Nakamura. Sir? My name is Matthew Liu. I'm an agent with the EPA. Yeah, I don't like using my same narrator voice for the research, or I'm going to change that. Let's back up. Dr. Watkins. Mr. Nakamura. Sir? My name is Matthew Liu. I'm an agent with the EPA. I assume you know why you're both here? Yes, sir. You've been looking into your sales records for a while now. There's been some questionable product... Don't rush. Daibu asks if I take requests or such. So, I have a tier of ways I pick skips. I have patron requests, regular requests, and then any of them that I find interesting at the time. So, I try and keep a balance between the three. That way it's not just all requests or all me all the time. So, yeah, if you go to the Site 42 Discord server, there is a channel called Reading Requests, and you can put a link to the skip you want read, and I'll get it as I go down the list, or if it seems interesting, I might bump it in line, or if you're a patron, I'll bump it way up in line. I'm looking into your sales records for a while now. There's been some questionable products you have on the market. Would you like to fill me in on your thoughts about this? Excuse me? Pearl? Dr. Watkins, we're not interested in AquaGene's overall business operations. We're only interested in one particular specimen. So, we're not in any legal trouble for selling our fish? At the moment, no, though that may change depending on if you can help us or not. In August of last year, it appears you were starting up a new line of modified fish that would be released during the holidays. Oh, the senti fish! Would you care to explain more about these? Of course, sir. See, our idea was to make a tropical themed fish set, sort of Hawaii in December, if you will, and we wanted to introduce these fish as sort of a... and we wanted to introduce these fish as sort of a living air freshener. We were going to go for the classic samples. Our plan was for the selection to include apple goldfish, strawberry tetras, orange clownfish, raspberry and blueberry betas, pineapple puffers and banana pipe fish. What was the mistake I made? There we go. That takes out the false take. There's the other broken one. There we go. That's all of it.  Did you say banana pipe fish? It is possible that one of these specimens escaped from your company's aquarium sometime in September of last year. On March 3rd, a research group of ours managed to catch this organism. Researcher Liu produces a picture of SCP-2761 in its initially discovered form, which resembles a yellow two meter alligator gar with early signs, with early signs of leg development, which resembles a yellow two meter alligator gar with early signs of leg development. This organism, can you identify it?  Is it possible that this fish could have originally been one you engineered? It appears that its genome is very unstable and is somehow unable to... Not unable to, it is able to! One you engineered. It appears that its genome is very unstable and is somehow able to express the genes of other animals it eats. Is it possible that something could have gone wrong with the gene splicing in its early stages?  I mean, it's definitely yellow, so... But that looks nothing like a pipe fish. In ours, we're only about 20 centimeters long. Dr. Watkins? Pearl, what's wrong? Dr. Watkins, please, explain what is going on. I thought you had Higgins fired after the stunty pulled with the peanut jellyfish. You let him work on my team? Dr. Watkins, Dr. Nakamura, if you please. I apologize, Mr. Liu. You see, our, um, stunty fish project, it encountered quite a few bumps in the R&D. So it seems that without my knowledge, Pearl decided to temporarily hire Dr. Gregory Higgins to my research team. He has... He has since been terminated from aqua gene for unprofessionalism. I gotta fix all that. I made a snort and it made a sound in the microphone and I hated it! Research team. He has since been terminated from aqua gene for unprofessionalism. I see. Were there any incidents leading up to our capture of this specimen? If you were able to retrieve them, then how did... Pearl, are you saying that he made... Yes, actually. We've taken waste samples from this organism. It appears that it contains a multitude of gut flora usually found in people, along with various carcinogens. So Higgins must have made more of those things after he took them back. Put the originals in the disposal unit and then... Log 1350. 1350 hours. 3029 on Discord. We need it. Okay, says Daibu-men. And in the meantime, that's the end of SCP-2761. We made it to the origins of Bananazilla. So because I did the origins of Bananazilla... Oh my god, Bananazilla begins part one. What? How far does this rabbit hole... Bananazilla begins part two? What? What?  Coming soon, there's more. There's more... Well, now I have to read all of these and find out what Bananazilla is all about. Because when you name it Bananazilla, I need to know. I can't not know about this. But, at least for today, let me throw this in the save it. Save it so I don't lose it. Save project as SCP-2761 saved. And we'll add the third character. This to the list on the list of editing so I don't forget SCP-2761. So ground control 3444-4 date night and 2761 today. That's not bad for an hour and 45 minutes of recording time. That went pretty well. So we got that, that went pretty well. Where do I work? I am a dance instructor. So I teach ballroom dancing, dancing with the stars kind of stuff. So I make appointments and private lessons and stuff like that so I can make my own schedule. It's just that I have a student scheduled. So I have to go warm up, stretch and then go be fancy dancer man. So let's see. Anything else? Yes. So thank you guys for tuning in to the stream. I hope you had fun hanging out with me while I recorded all these SCPs. Thank Witness and Lashios for the patronage as well as the patron requests. Because date night, dear god, hilarity. And 2761 is Bananazilla. That's also amazing. If you guys want to help out the channel in any way, shape or form, viewing is the best way to do it. Sharing is extra credit.

ost to do Winter Wellness as we have done it and it hasn't gotten shorter over the years because I feel like there has been some decisions around that from classroom teachers we've also run into glitches with just weather operating with us because in the past we've had six weeks and then we had four weeks but then because of snow days the kids really only went three does every school in our supervisor even do Winter Wellness in some form or fashion is there a difference in the cost so this may continue but it actually may be a problem I would say this is one of the places where you could say things are not very equitable across the elementary schools and you're not at one extreme or the other as of my knowledge the middle without going to do a financial analysis and a program analysis but from what I know of it sitting here at the table you're about the middle he's going to bail every year you're on the public right now it's time to talk about this board Brian is a sugar rush I can't be civil after it shouldn't be civil okay so in force to the board any education goals is that something you know I don't think we have anything on that is there anything I don't have anything on that thank you very much I wrote the transition it was just listed twice oh so that was transition team from Casey that was not the transition from me into the WCAS district maybe I'm a supporter of that you know it's more of how do you want to wind down we'll put that on that can we could I get feedback from Casey or like some sort of statement as far as what he's thinking would work after having talked to people would that be transition purposes can I say one thing really quick the garden and I just really want to thank Talitha for what she has provided to the garden and then what she accomplished over the course of like the past three weeks maybe month so she set up a little fun me for many aspects of the garden and if you look out there in the rain today you'll see a beautiful new day Theresa's goal of $600 was her goal and she succeeded that goal so I just want to thank her and I hope that someday we continue to have our garden coordinator because I think it's so important and the kids get to benefit from that so I'm not good I just want to say it's really awesome and just shows dedication to our community we pull that off like a small amount of time 100% thanks very much we recognize you any reports from the we're shooting for the 17th 17th is when we were shooting for okay so it looks like so we'll get the financial report okay we'll get everything it looks like our action agenda is done unless there's resignations and hires that we're not aware of so any of the forward business any comments from Amy, Bill audience members thanks for sticking it out okay 8 o'clock okay well we will adjourn and we'll stick it out oh yeah it's all gate press no no we need a motion I move to approve forward orders in the amount of $60,597.80 second one favor please sign yeah please don't walk away though 2-1-2-3 come on can't believe this is this is an issue


He wanted to be in Baton Rouge because he really didn't want to be in the city. In the city, it was just going to be too much. Yeah, everybody when he moved, right? So he wanted to be kind of outside the city. And which body do you want to come home? We just missed home. I don't know. And the thing about it when we came home, he said, man, just leave. All that is take the equipment.  All of that he just left. We just left all that. He said, just take your clothes and equipment.  We're about to go back to leave. Yeah, we on Boss Talk 101. Came back home after how long? After us being there for a year. And then when you came back home, because you had to go back again. How long did you come home? No, no, no. When we came home, we was home. You're home. That's when he was like mammary. He was more like mammary to go back home. Did y'all come to New Orleans? Did y'all come to Baton Rouge? Where did y'all go? No, we all came back to New Orleans. But at that time, he wanted to be in Baton Rouge, because he really didn't want to be in the city. In the city, it was just going to be too much. Yeah, everybody, when he moved, it was. Right. So he wanted to be kind of outside the city. Why did he want to come home? We just missed home. I don't know.  Just take the equipment.  All of that he just left. We just left. All that he said, just take your clothes and equipment.  How? Y'all just love home. No, no, this is how we left. He woke up. It was like 20 months. He came in and said, come on, we're about to go. He said, just get the equipment. Y'all clothes.  He didn't even know what he was talking about at that time. No. We said, we're going back home. He said, we're going to the city. We're going to New Orleans. OK. But the thing about it that, just imagine that you just getting up in the middle of the night and say, come on, let's go. We ain't never coming back. Did you feel hurt? No, not because I really. He about that works. I know he about that works. See the thing, I really didn't establish no friends there, though. He was working. I do work in so much. Right. And during that time, they was putting out a lot of music. They was working. And at the end of the day, what did it help coming back to New Orleans because of the field? Yeah, but see when it came back, that's when everything started popping. So I was able to bring in the artist. Yeah. That's when I came aboard. So it just now. And y'all just left. Mac Finn. Y'all left the big court. The big court didn't come with it down here. He went back to Kansas because he said he can't see the Missouri. The big court went back.  But it made him a better artist. It made him better, yeah. He said you was looking at him. So you just be staring like, do it again. Yeah, like do it again. Because it's like when I was working at that, when artists are artists, I listened for pronunciations. I listened for making show.  I still wanted you to say it right. That's very important. We had an artist came on the show and he was talking about it. I think it was Eclipse Darkness because he's one of those that he can spit real, real fast. According to him, he's faster than even Twister. Well, you got songs with Twister. But the difference is because like Twister, when he go really, really fast, I can't really can't understand him as well. But this dude, whenever he did it, I could understand every single word. Right. He was like, he was like, Annunciation is everything and how he pronounced that word. But see, that's what I was on court about.    They understood. They heard it and understood it the first time they heard it. Yeah. But it was just more me coaching court about being a better artist of your product. Him being an artist of delivery and saying it.  Which is understandable, you know? Like the thing you gotta understand, you guys, y'all were doing something that was going to change. It actually, it swayed hip hop in a way, you know? Right. Yeah, we on Boss Talk 101.

Those excellent California wines that can add so much pleasantness to the way you live, to your happiness and entertaining guests, to your enjoyment of everyday meals. Yes, right now a glass full would be very pleasant as Roma Wines bring you Dame May Whitty in a remarkable tale of suspense. My dear niece, I'm writing you this letter in explanation of certain recent actions of mine, about which you're probably curious. As you know, since that day four years ago, when your dear uncle died, may he rest in peace, I've been living a busy, if lonely, life. Fortunately, the city is small as health and one as many friends, but they in no way could make up for the loneliness I felt. As you recall, you're continually urging me to try to get some sort of opposition. And so, finally, I took your advice and placed an advertisement in our local paper. It was six weeks ago this next Friday that I inserted the ad. I'm sure you must have chuckled when you read it. Widowed woman, Gentile, some secretarial experience, drives own car, desires position of interest with reliable business house. Address Miss Emily Rogers, box 2B, or phone Hilton 22412. I was somewhat surprised to receive a reply the next morning. I'd finished my breakfast. Yes, you're right. I still drink a cup of hot water when arising each morning. I'd finished at all events when the phone rang. Hello? Mrs. Emily Rogers, please. This is she speaking. I'm calling about the ad you ran in the evening paper yesterday. Oh, yes. I think I can offer you a position you'd be interested in, Mrs. Rogers. My name is Bruce. How do you do, Mr. Bruce? We have a very small publishing house, Mrs. Rogers, and need someone to take care of any of the contacts we might wish to make in your part of the country. Oh, aren't you from Hilton then? No. No, our offices are in Los Angeles. We'd pay you $50 a week providing you could use your home as an office, although there wouldn't be much office work required. As I say, the position primarily would be one of establishing contacts. Quite. It sounds fine, Mr... Bruce. It sounds fine, Mr. Bruce. Good. Good. Well, then consider yourself under salary beginning immediately, Mrs. Rogers. I'll phone you again as soon as there's something more definite for you to do. And that's how I got the job. I assume naturally that I would immediately receive instructions from Mr. Bruce as to how I should go about establishing contacts. The first word I had after the telephone conversation was when the postman arrived the next Saturday with an envelope for me containing a check for $50. There was no return address on the envelope and the check was a personal one bearing no company name. It was signed R. L. Bruce. Three weeks went by in this fashion. Each Saturday I would receive the $50 check in the mail but always the envelope was without a return address and the check was a personal check. All the envelopes were post-Mark Los Angeles but other than that I haven't the smallest clue as to the identity of the company by which I was employed. I've always believed that money is very precious and as your uncle, may his soul rest in peace, used to say no self-respecting person would accept it without doing a lick of work for it. I was dissatisfied with the arrangement. I would tell this Mr. Bruce when he phoned and I wished to resign my position with his small publishing house. It was on the Wednesday after he arrived with a third check that I again received a telephone call from Mr. Bruce. He was charming as he'd been on the first call and before I had the chance to tell him if I wished to resign... Well, I had your first assignment for you, Mrs. Rogers. Oh, I wanted to talk to you about that, Mr. Bruce. Oh, getting a patient, were you? Well, this will keep you busy for a while. Yes, Mr. Paul Stevens. Now, he's one of our most promised... What sort of a favor, Mr. Bruce? Well, Mr. Stevens has been... has some rewriting on a novel we planned publishing in a few months and too many people interrupt him here in Los Angeles, so I wonder... I wonder if you could put him up at your home until he finishes. Well, I... I don't know. Oh, he'll be no... Well, I... yes, I suppose I could. Oh, that's fine. That's fine, even. Yes? And that's all I knew of the job, my dear niece. Well, at last I'd be doing something for my pay, which to me was very important. I waited around the house all day, afraid to leave, even to do my shopping, for fear I'd miss the telephone call from Mr. Stevens. It is quite late in the afternoon, almost five o'clock, when the telephone rang. Hello? Mrs. Rogers? This is Mrs. Rogers. This is Paul Stevens, Mrs. Rogers. Oh, yes, Mr. Stevens. I've been expecting your call. Where are you? I'll come and pick you up. Oh, that's very good. The corner of Brookside and Sierra Madre, fine. I'll be driving a black Buick convertible, and the right fender's dented. A parking station attendant did it. Black Buick? Goodbye, Mr. Stevens. Oh, Mr. Stevens. I remember I hadn't asked Mr. Stevens what he looked like, so that I would be able to recognize him. But then I thought that Brookside and Sierra Madre is not a busy intersection, and all the chances of there being more than one stranger of the corner were slight. I left the house immediately and drove through town to where Brookside crossed the Sierra Madre. The first nervousness I felt was, when arriving at the corner, I found myself faced with this problem of identification. There were many cars and a rather large and excited crowd gathered at the corner. Stand back, everybody, please. Oh, hello there, Mrs. Rogers. Officer, what happened? A hit-and-run accident a few minutes ago. It was dreadful. Who was hit? That man about 35. No one I know. Was he badly hurt? He's dead. Oh, oh, that's awesome. Yeah, please, now back. Officer, I... Well, I was supposed to meet someone, a gentleman here, a Mr. Paul Stevens. I don't suppose that this poor gentleman could be... Well, now the ambulance will be here in a few minutes, Mrs. Rogers. I'll call you when we find out who it is, if you like. Would you? I'd be very grateful. All right, now, please, get stand back. Mrs. Rogers? Yes? I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I'm Paul Stevens. Mr. Stevens? Oh, I'm so relieved. Well, of course, please get in. The accident upset me. I was afraid for a minute. It was you. No, no, it wasn't me. Won't you get in? Thank you.  Yes, yes, thank you. I'd like to go to your house, if you don't mind. Of course, Mr. Stevens. It won't take long. I was really terribly relieved, and I thought what a warrior I was. Because for a few minutes, I really had been sure that Paul Stevens was dead. But now everything was fine. I tried making conversations with Mr. Stevens on the drive home, but he seemed tired, not inclined to talk. And so we drove quietly back through town and to my house. We went inside, and I showed Mr. Stevens up to his room, and then went into the living room to tidy up.  Hello? Hello, Mrs. Rogers? This is Officer Barnes. Oh, yes, Officer. I'm glad you called. I wanted to tell you that I met Mr.... I sent that identification for you. Yes, that's what I wanted to tell you, Officer. The name was Paul Stevens. It couldn't answer. I stood there, frozen, with the telephone receiver in my hand, looking at the door to the hallway, where the man who called himself Paul Stevens stood smiling tightly, holding a gun in his hand. A gun that was pointed right at me. More suspense, Roma Wines are bringing you a star, Dame May Whitty, in My Dear Neese by Elliot Lewis.

Dame May Whitty, as Aunt Emily, in my dear niece, a play well calculated to keep you in suspense. My mouth felt frozen. My throat dry. I stared fascinated down the battle of the gun, pointing at me. Mrs. Rogers. Thank him and hang up. Hello, Mrs. Rogers. Are you all right? Uh, yes. Yes, I'm all right, officer. I was... Thank him and hang up. I was... Thank you, officer. He walked away from me then and sat across the room where he could watch me and also see anyone who might come to the front door. The gun rusted in his lap. I stood and stared at him. My mind raced. I tried to think of what to do. I was surprised when he spoke. Sit down, if you like. Who are you? Why did you tell me you were Mr. Stevens? Sit down. Who are you?   What? I didn't think they'd find out who he was. I didn't know he was hot. You killed? Yes. I killed Paul Stevens. That's all he would say. I tried to find out who he was and why he'd chosen me and why he'd killed Mr. Stevens and what he was going to do next, but... he wouldn't answer me. He wouldn't say anything. He looked over at me occasionally and smiled. It was beginning to get dark and I got up to turn on the lights. What are you doing? It's dark. I thought I'd... I like it dark. My house doesn't look win in the dark. We'll be going out in a few minutes, Mrs. Rogers. Where are we going? We're going out for dinner, Mrs. Rogers. You're going to be my dinner guest. Why did the cop call you? How did you know he called me? The phone upstairs. I was expecting a call. Why did he call you? I thought you were dead. I mean, I thought Mr. Stevens was dead. All right, all right.  I have a very important engagement. We left the house then, got in the car and drove to a restaurant I'd never been in before. It's on the highway, out past the other side of town, and it's quite a bad reputation. The man didn't know where it was, but he knew the name. All the while I was trying to remember who we was. I say remember because there was something familiar about him. But what that something was, my dear niece, I couldn't for the life of me think. An attendant took the car when we arrived at the road house and we went inside. We just sat down at the table when a small and very thin dark complexion man slid into the seat next to the man who wasps Mr. Stevens. What are you doing here? I had to come. It didn't work. They found out who he was. Why didn't you stay hidden? She knows I'm not Stevens. The cop told him. It stayed her house anyway, couldn't you? You have to come out where people can pick you up? Take it easy, Al. It's not easy. What's the matter with you? Mary figures out a foolproof way for you to get rid of a guy and hide out right into the cops' noses and then you go and louse up the whole deal. It's not louse stuff. It will be if you don't get away quick. Maybe, maybe. Oh, I don't think you've met Mrs. Rogers. Mrs. Rogers, this is Mr. Al Nuhal, who owns this restaurant. Ah, yes. I am. Look, you better get back to LA. What good would it do? Have you got any contacts in that part of the country? Suddenly, I knew. I knew who the man was. Because as he talked to Al, I remembered that voice. We need someone to take care of any contacts we might wish to make in your part of the country. It was Mr. Bruce. The same Mr. Bruce who'd given me my job and sent me the checks and would call me that morning and told me to inspect Mr. Stevens that afternoon and to put up Mr. Stevens at my home for a while. How did they find out? What? They found out who he was. How? It was hot. They had pictures and prints on them. I jumped them at the corner just before I met her. You're Mr. Bruce. He did that payroll job, then. What did you say? He's Mr. Bruce. Well, that's very good, Mrs. Rogers. How did you know? I just remembered your voice. It doesn't make any difference. You know too much about this anyway. Doesn't make any difference. You want me to take her with me out? I don't want her out here. Somebody might have seen her car drive in. They'd look. I think we'll go back to her house and start fresh. That way it'll be harder checking where she went. Whatever you do, do it now. The crowd starts coming for dinner soon and someone will see you. Yeah, yeah, okay. Shall we leave now, Mrs. Rogers? Where are we going? We're going to your house, Mrs. Rogers. After that, I'm not sure.  We left then. I can't describe my fright. It all seemed so hopeless. I suppose I was more resigned than frightened. We drove back through town. Mr. Bruce sitting very quietly next to me in the front seat. My car's not new, as you know. And although I often have trouble with it, I never before had the horn stick. But that night it stuck. Right on the corner of Brookside and Sierra Madre.  I'm sorry, Mr. Bruce. I'm not blowing my horn. It's gotten stuck. Stop the car. Stop the car. Now, say where you are and don't try to drive away, see? Yes, I see. Let's get out of here. You, uh, got the horn fixed, Mrs. Rogers? Who's that? Evening, Mrs. Rogers. Tell him everything's all right. Want me to fix that horn for you? Mr. Mayor, uh, no, thank you. It's all right. Oh, don't really take me a second to fix it so you can use it. Never mind. Mr. Mayor's, this is Mr. Paul Stevens. Oh, please, Major. How are you? I see you pulled my eyes to stop the horn. I usually take care of Mrs. Rogers' car myself, making me feel funny when something goes wrong with it. Oh, of course. I'll bring it in in the morning, Mr. Mayor's. Oh, no sense you're bothering Mrs. Rogers. I'll go along with you now if you like and take you home. Not today, you're driving without a horn. Oh, I think that's an excellent idea. I, uh, said you wanted to show me the town, you see, Mrs. Rogers. Wouldn't you need the car? Well, uh, I suppose... I was looking forward to the drive. You don't mind? No, of course. You picked the car up, though, in the morning, Mr. Mayor's. I had promised Mr. Stevens I'd take him for a ride. Sure, of course. Uh, thanks for your trouble, Mr. Mayor's. Oh, glad to help. It is such a little town. We all know each other and like each other and like to help each other. And so, Mrs. Rogers? Yes. Well, good night, Mrs. Rogers. And I'm glad to have met you, Mr. Stevens. The rest of the drive was uneventful. The street lights were on now and flashes of light from them darted into the car and lighted up the sullen face of the man who sat tensely by my side. I tried to remember all the conversations I'd had with him to find the reason for his choosing me out of all the people who must have placed advertisements that day as the person with whom he would hide out. For by now, my dear niece, I was convinced that Mr. Bruce had deliberately set out to murder Mr. Stevens for some reason and hide out in my house where the police were the most unlikely to look for him. But why my house? Why had he chosen me? When we got to my house, Mr. Bruce directed me to leave my car on the street and we went up the dark pathway to the front door. Mr. Bruce a few steps behind me all the way. Quite dark tonight, isn't it? Yes. Why are we going inside? I have to make a phone call. I see. Open the door. How's that light? Pardon me? Turn off the light. Oh, sorry. Now, pull the blinds down on that window. Yes. Now the light. Yes. Get the telephone. Ask a long distance for Crestview 9177 in Los Angeles. I'd like long distance, please. Crestview 9177 in Los Angeles. Crestview 9177. One moment, please. I'm calling Crestview 9177. Crestview 9177. One moment, please. All right, give it to me. Mary, look. Meet me at ours as soon as you can get here. Something's wrong. No, no, no, I'm all right. I'll tell you later. Get here fast.  Where are we going? Oh, a little trip. You ready to go? Don't answer that. It might be the operator calling back. Is she with her? OK. Answer it. But I'm right here. Hello? Mrs. Oh, yes, operator. Is he still there? Say yes or no, operator. Yes, operator. Thank you, operator. Dear Mr. Mayer, he'd understood me. And he told the police. And they were going to save me. Well, you just can't imagine. I felt exactly like the heroine in an emotional picture. I simply had to run at Mr. Bruce from leaving the house. Just a few minutes, the officer said. Just time enough for them to get here. All right, let's get going. I wish I knew where we were going. Do I have to take anything with me? Will we be gone long? Yeah. A long time. Then I need several changes of clothes. Let me think. My brown suit. With a gray be better. It's older, but... Come on, come on. You won't need anything. Oh, the heater. What? I left the heater on in the other room. I'd better turn it off. I wouldn't like anything to catch on fire when we are gone. Fire? You mean those heaters could set the house on fire? No, no, no, not really. I meant that, well, I'd rather not pay a gas bill that's been run up against me because I neglected to turn the heater off. All right, all right, but make it fast. Come on, what's the trouble? Oh, this thing always sticks. I never can fix it. I remember it did it last fall. I was just starting off to meet my niece, Mary. And... Yeah, let me do it. There. Thank you. And now I feel better about it. I'm sure there must be something I've forgotten. And let me think. Come on, come on. Now, are you ready? Yes. I'm ready. Quiet on my street. Peaceful and dark. All the neighbor's lights were out, except for the ganges across the way. One light was on upstairs on the back of their house. It threw a diffuse pattern diagonally across the pavement. And I thought for a minute that I saw a figure move suddenly towards us. Mr. Bruce motioned to me to go ahead and I walked slowly down the path towards the car. I could feel Mr. Bruce a few steps behind me. Suddenly, it happened. All right, Bruce. What? Get down, Mrs. Rogers. What? Oh, there you are. Mrs. Rogers, are you all right? Yes, I... I'm all right. Thank you. I'm all right. And there it is, Mary. The explanation I promised you. I felt as your aunt that I should tell you how you happened to be in the penitentiary. When Mr. Allen the Roadhouse first mentioned your name, I was suspicious. But not until Mr. Bruce made the phone call to you, did I begin to piece the story together. You had suggested the advertisement. Your husband answered it and employed me. If only you'd told me, my dear, that you'd gotten married when you were in Los Angeles. After all, I'm your only living relative and I could have come to your wedding. Then this whole thing wouldn't have happened, would it, dear? Because I would have known Mr. Bruce all the time. Let me know after the trial what your new address is to be and I'll continue writing. As always, Aunt Emily. Suspense. Presented by Roma Wainz. R-O-M-A. Made in California for enjoyment throughout the world. Before we hear again from Dame Mae Whitty, the star of my dear niece tonight's suspense play, this is Truman Bradley for Roma Wainz. Here's a hospitality tip on how to flatter your guests when entertaining. So easy, so smart, and so economical too. Famed hostess Elsa Maxwell offers this suggestion from her own great entertaining experience. I find, says Miss Maxwell, that keeping a selection of Roma wine on hand enables me to please all my guests all the time. Yes, there's a Roma California wine to delight everyone. And you flatter your guests when you give them a choice. To add warmth to your welcome, serve red, red Roma port. Perfect at the end of a meal too. Many prefer glorious golden amber Roma sherry. Others the rich distinctive fragrance and taste of golden Roma muscatel or the flame bright radiance of Roma to Kay. And you can afford all these Roma wines easily. For Roma is now at the lowest prices in years. No other wine offers you so much or so little. Get Roma wine tomorrow. Insist on Roma. R-O-M-A. Roma wine. Discover for yourself why more Americans enjoy Roma than any other wine. This is my witty. As always has been a great pleasure to me to appear unsuspenced. And I want to thank Mr. Spear for his usual splendid help and Mr. Wally Mayer as Mr. Bruce for his excellent support and all the other members of the cast who've all been so helpful. About next Thursday's suspense, it seems that a gentleman of questionable reputation or racetracks windler who is, I believe the phrase is, hot. Assistant advertisement which apparently offers him free transportation from New York to California. How this leads to the committing of one murder and the uncovering of another should give that extra actor George Calouris something to get his teeth into. I'll be listening as I'm sure you will be next Thursday. And don't forget the March of Dimes. Thank you. Thank you, Dame May Witty. Next Thursday, same time, the audience will bring you Mr. George Calouris as star of Suspense Radio's Outstanding Theatre of Thrills. Produced by William Spear for the Roma Wine Company of Fresno, California. This is CBS, the Columbia Broadcasting System.


Dear students, in this module, we are going to talk about the conflict perspective. In our previous module, we discussed the structural functionalist perspective, which maintains that there must be social order in society, there must be restoration of peaceful society, and all the groups and group members in the society are perpetually or continuously struggling to maintain the social order in society. However, conflict perspective disagrees to this point of view and says that there is a continuous struggle for resources in the society that would ultimately lead to the conflicting situation. The conflict theoretical perspective views the society as a struggle between groups which are competing for resources and power. In this, we see that the groups in the society compete for power and resources for each other. Conflict perspective mostly talks about the economic system, such as a capitalistic economic system in which two classes are continuously in a struggling situation, which is a proletariat class or a working class that is exploitative, exploited, and the bourgeois class or the elite class who have a means of production can exploit the working class in such a position. So, this is a continuous struggle between two classes, which maintain conflict perspective that inequality is basically the binding force that keeps a society together. When we look at it from this point of view, when we look at it from an economic point of view, it becomes much easier to understand it because the rest of the institutions also have a continuous conflicting situation. But there is a little bit of a covert situation in the economic system, which we don't see in the other systems. For example, in the education system, we also see that people compete for a continuous competition. People compete for very limited positions. Those who compete for it go to privileged positions and those who are not able to compete go on a journey. So, conflict perspective in a nutshell, this approach emphasizes the importance of power and inequality in shaping all these social relationships within the society. If we talk about the Pakistani society, that applies to studying the struggle between different groups that may include ethnic groups, religious groups, or different classes within the Pakistani society for different resources and power. For example, when we talk about the political structure, different political parties are continuously in struggle in the struggle of power. As a result of the struggle of power, conflict is also created. This conflict is also created by violence. So, when we look at society from a conflict perspective, we look at human behavior and particularly its social structure, we will see that the society keeps reproducing inequality. Sociologists focus on this through conflict perspective so that they can analyze it through critical point of view and understand it.
