SCENE #8
"STRESSIN' STREET, CONT."
SETTING: STRESSIN' STREET, CELL 2
SCENE: This scene triggers automatically as the Man approaches the entrance of the cell following Stressin' Street.
An exclamation point of surprise ("!") appears above the Man's head, and if he isn't facing that direction already, he turns and looks at the cell's exit point.
A tumultuous party can be heard in the distance.
Man
(I can hear a bit of a commotion coming from the street up ahead.)
Man
(I detest doing this sort of thing, but it might be worthwhile to ask a local for some help...whether they lead me to a public phone or let me borrow theirs, I'll take what I can get at this point.)
The Man pauses to survey his environment before continuing his monologue.
Man
(This entire experience has been nothing short of nightmarish.)
Man
(Feral cats and arduous terrain...as if missing my stop wasn't bad enough, this town is less like civilisation and more like a warzone.)
Man
(And what kind of name is "Gokuma", anyway?)
Man
(...I can't believe there's a place on Earth that makes me wish I was back in the office.)
The player regains control of the Man at this point.
