REN: Oh, uh, before we get there? I should—I should probably mention that—
NONA: [laughing] Oh God.
CLARISSA: [laughter]
JONAS: Who's that?
REN: That's—so, there's this girl. Nona.
REN: She's... just this girl, and I'm totally into her, and I want her to be into me, so just—you know—just be cool, okay?
REN: No pouting or complaining or anything, alright?
REN: Deal?
[if interrupted by object interaction:
REN: But really— just be cool. Alright, Alex? ]
| Be cool?
>ALEX: Be cool..?
>REN: Don't be like... just, how you can be sometimes.
| Relax!
>ALEX: Ren. Relax!
| Why wouldn’t I?
>ALEX: Why wouldn’t I?
>REN: Don’t be, like, how you can be sometimes.
[If you spoke to Jonas:
REN: Oh, and okay, Jonas. Now that we're dumpster buddies, what was the thing that you said to Alex back there?
REN: Do you have one of those vestigial tails or something?
JONAS: Uh, it was nothing, really.
| Jonas is just nervous about stuff.
>ALEX: Oh, Jonas is just nervous about moving in with a strange girl in a strange town and fitting in every stupid cliche you can think of.
>JONAS: I'm not--that's not what it was, really. I just like to take the time to make proper introductions, that's all.
>REN: [laughter] Okay.
| Leave it alone, Ren.
>ALEX: Just leave it alone, Ren, alright? You don't have to hear everything.
>REN: I don't have to hear everything, but I want to hear everything.
>JONAS: It's not a big deal, really, just forget about it.
| [No Response]
>REN: Ooookay. ]
[If you didn't speak to Jonas:
REN: Oh, what was the thing you wanted to say to Alex, Jonas?
REN: You can just pretend I'm like a stray dog and can't understand.
JONAS: Uhh, it was nothing, really.
| Yeah, what was it?
>ALEX: Yeah, what was it really, Jonas? If you have some deep dark secret, I’d like to know now before we’re officially housemates.
>JONAS: I’ll just… talk to you later, seriously.
| Leave it alone, Ren.
>ALEX: Just leave it alone, Ren, alright? You don't have to hear everything.
>REN: I don't have to hear everything, but I want to hear everything.
>JONAS: It’s not a big deal, really. Just forget about it.
| [No Response]
>REN: Ooookay. ]
[Object Interactions:
[Bird Bush]
ALEX: Aahhh!
REN: What?
REN: What’s going on? Should I be scared?
REN: Did a squirrel jump on you?
| Just some birds.
>ALEX: Some birds flew out of a hole and scared me, that’s all.
>REN: Birds. Cheep cheep cheep. You big goof.
| I hate nature.
>ALEX: Aw, I hate nature! Stupid birds wiht their stupid flying and pooping everywhere!
>REN: [chuckles] Okay.
| Nothing.
>ALEX: [sigh] Nothing, it was nothing.
| [No Response]
>JONAS: Some birds startled her, it’s fine.
>REN: Birds. Cheep cheep cheep. You big goof.
[Command Annex]
ALEX: Hey, is this like part of the base? This far out on the beach?
REN: I honestly don’t know what that is. But remember you can pull out your little radio and tune to that tour station if you want.
[Command Annex Radio]
102.3: This data command annex, as it had been dubbed, was used during the base’s early years as the communication nerve center for outside military installations. It was also the primary office of Marianne Bozek, a civilian who developed communications protection through the invention of the famed WAL system. A type of radio frequency identification, “WAL,” standing for Wave Assisted Lock, assigned each person who was stationed at Fort Milner a call sign, through which they could use their portable two-wave radios to unlock prescribed doors and gates. Though the mechanics are considered outmoded today, the island still uses this security method to honor its rich history.
[Main Street Exit]
REN: Hey no, Alex, wrong way, that’s back to town, we’re going down to the beach.
REN: That’s down here.
| I wanna look around some more.
>ALEX: I know, but I wanna look around Main Street some more. We kinda flew right past it.
>REN: You’ll have every second of time later, let’s set up, like, home base first.
| Oh, okay.
>ALEX: Oh, alright.
[Main Street Exit again]
REN: Alex, seriously, that’s the wrong way, you can’t get to the beach from there. ]
CLARISSA: Reginald! I hear you over there!
REN: Hey, guys.
CLARISSA: Wait, I was saying... I was about to tell a story, what was it?
NONA: About Brad's car?
CLARISSA: Oh, well... that can wait.
NONA: Hey.
CLARISSA: We started a fire down the way, but Nona wanted to play beach nanny, so...
NONA: I just wanted to make sure you guys saw where we were before it got too dark.
| Hi.
>ALEX: Uh, yeah. Hi.
>NONA: Hi.
| This is Jonas.
>ALEX: Uh, yeah. Everyone, this is Jonas. Jonas? Everyone.
>JONAS: Hey.
>NONA: Hi.
| Ugh, Clarissa’s here? [NG+]
>ALEX: Wait, Clarissa’s here? Isn’t there like a small animal you should be torturing somewhere?
>REN: Okay…
>CLARISSA: Scribbles, the family duck, died a week ago, so… no, not really. But it’s a pleasure to see you too, Alex.
>REN: You had a “family duck?”
>JONAS: Um, do you two—
REN: And Jonas, that's—
CLARISSA: Who are you again?
JONAS: Jonas.
REN: Jonas.
[Silent Route:
CLARISSA: Who are you?
JONAS: Jonas.
REN: That’s Jonas. ]
REN: He's Alex's new in town, fresh as a daisy step-brother.
CLARISSA: Step-brother?
NONA: Really?
REN: Yeah, I know. It's a trip, right?
JONAS: Uh... yep.
| Yeah, so be nice.
>ALEX: Yeah, this is his first night here, so everybody be on your best behavior.
>ALEX: Treat him as you would a scary dog. Palms out.
>JONAS: Heh. That's, um... I don't bite, it's fine.
| I’m babysitting him.
>ALEX: Yeah, you'd think he'd be a little old to need a babysitter, but. Here we are.
>REN: [laughs]
>JONAS: Yeah, if I don't have anyone to burp me, it becomes a real issue.
| He’s cool.
>ALEX: Yeah, he's a... cool guy from cool North Valley, so... let's all try and show him a good time.
>JONAS: [chuckle] Just the beach and some beer will be enough, I'm sure.
CLARISSA: Whoa-whoa-whoa-wait. You're Jonas. Jonas the step-brother.
JONAS: Yeah. Um. What's your name again?
REN: That is Clarissa, but she's—
CLARISSA: How are you her step-brother?
CLARISSA: Like, what does that even mean?
JONAS: Um...
| Our parents are married.
>ALEX: My mom married his dad, so... family law and all.
| Guess.
>ALEX: I'll give you three guesses.
>REN: [nervous laughter] Her mom's getting remarried, that's all. She's getting remarried to a guy and that's the guy's son, so... domino... effect..?
| [No Response]
>JONAS: Uh—her mom... is marrying my dad? So. You know.
CLARISSA: Yeah well I guess this is happening now! This is a thing that is happening, so... [sigh] Where's everyone else?
REN: Nichole had that tennis thing.
CLARISSA: And?
| Who else was coming?
>ALEX: Uh... who else was supposed to come?
>CLARISSA: Anyone? Everyone?
| We’re it.
>ALEX: There's nobody else coming. We're it.
>CLARISSA: What.
REN: Clarissa, we... [chuckle] We took the last ferry. I thought more would show up, but—
CLARISSA: Oh my God, it's just Alex and her new step-brother?
CLARISSA: Ha, that's it. That's who you brought.
CLARISSA: That's the group?
| C’mon, I’m fun.
>ALEX: Oh, c'mon Clarissa, I'm fun! I'm hip! I'm with it!
>CLARISSA: Listen to yourself.
| Who invited you?
>ALEX: Clarissa, seriously, who even invited you?
>REN: Uh. I did.
>CLARISSA: Ren invited Nona and Nona invited me. Though, begged me would maybe be the better way to put it.
>NONA: Uh—I didn't—I didn't really beg...
| Don’t be mean.
>ALEX: Clarissa, c'mon... Don't be mean, this is supposed to be fun.
>CLARISSA: [laughter] Who said I'm not having any fun? I'm having fun. This is like friggin' Candy Land, right now.
JONAS: Wait, aren't you all like... friends?
CLARISSA: I'm friends with Nona and I'm downgrading Ren to like a creepy neighbor.
CLARISSA: And you I just met.
JONAS: Yeah, I'm... getting the picture now.
| What about me?
>ALEX: Hey. What about me?
>CLARISSA: What about you?
|| Nevermind.
>>ALEX: Just, nevermind.
|| I don’t even count?
>>ALEX: Oh. I get it, I'm not even on the spectrum.
| Well, sorry.
>ALEX: Well, sorry.
>CLARISSA: I accept your apology.
REN: You see, Jonas, normally this is like a twenty deep rager. But... Pat had a party last weekend, and…
NONA: Aaand a bunch of kids got caught teepeeing the school.
REN: But this is great, right? We're on Edwards Island! Forget those losers who couldn't handle the weekend, who didn't think we could make it, who lost my invitation, who had to go on family—
CLARISSA: Faster.
REN: We've been hearing about this for years. And now, we're gonna do it.
REN: This is gonna be amazing! Right?
REN: Right? Right, guys?
| Yay!
>ALEX: Yay! Awesomeness!
| Yeah!
>ALEX: Yeah! The beach! Island stuff!
REN: Yeah!

REN: Smell that clean air, boys and girls! Boy and girl. This ain't city livin'.
JONAS: Yeah, um, anyone need a smoke? I have a full pack.
REN: Uh—oh, uh, no thanks. I mean, I literally just said the clean air thing, so…
JONAS: Alex?
JONAS: You can bum one off me if you're empty.
JONAS: I forget if you're a fellow addict.
| Yeah, sure.
>ALEX: Yeah, sure.
>REN: Really, since when do you smoke?
>REN: Last time you tried it I thought you were gonna vomit on my shoes.
|| Eh, he’s right, I shouldn’t.
>>ALEX: Eh, Ren’s right, I probably shouldn’t.
>>JONAS: Okay, just checking.
|| I’m being polite.
>>ALEX: I’m being polite, you should try it sometime.
>>REN: Okay, just remember… aim to throw up in the water.
|| I wanna smoke!
>>ALEX: Since now, that’s since when.
>>REN: Okay, just remember… aim to throw up in the water.
[ACCEPT CIGARETTE]
>>ALEX: [coughing].
>>JONAS: You alright?
>>JONAS: They’re filtered…
||| Flavor country.
>>ALEX: Yeah, yeah, no. I’m in flavor country over here.
||| It’s, uh, been a while…
>>>ALEX: Yeah, no, it’s just been a while…
||| [No Response]
>>>JONAS: You okay? Okay.
[IGNORE CIGARETTE]
>>JONAS: Or…
>>JONAS: It’s okay, never mind.
| No thanks.
>ALEX: Oh, uh, no thanks, I don't smoke. The last time I had one it... didn't go well.
>REN: Yeah, no, I didn't know it what "coughing with your whole body" really meant until I saw you dry heaving.
>JONAS: Okay, just checking.
| [No Response]
>REN: Oh, you know what, she doesn’t smoke either, so…
>JONAS: Okay, just checking.
REN: Alright, my other friends should be up and around the bend…
JONAS: Actually, that—I mean, I don't mean to be the guy to break us up already, but Ren, can you do me a favor?
JONAS: Can I have like two real quick minutes with Alex for a second?
JONAS: And, you can, you know. You can run up and meet your friends.
REN: Uh, really?
REN: Just... that's kinda…
| What’s wrong with Ren being here?
>ALEX: Uh… what could you possible have to say that Ren can’t hear?
>JONAS: It’s not like that, it’s nothing, really. It’s just something I wanna talk to you about super fast, that’s all.
| Is something wrong?
>ALEX: Wait, is—is something wrong? What is it?
>JONAS: Nothing's wrong, nothing's wrong. It'll just take two minutes, super fast.
| Don’t be weird already, Jonas…
>ALEX: Jonas, c'mon, I vouched for you sight unseen and you're already acting super weird.
>JONAS: And I appreciate the voucher, I do, and I'm not trying to seem weird, I just want two minutes alone, that's it.
| [No Response]
>JONAS: It’ll take three minutes, tops.
REN: Alright, but... [nervous laughter] Uh, look. I don't wanna go up by myself.
REN: I mean, can't we just stick together? You're gonna have all night to say, like... whatever.
JONAS: But since you wanna meet up with your friends anyway…
REN: We're all gonna meet up with them. It's like a buddy system.
| Let’s keep together.
>ALEX: C'mon, Jonas, this is... let's just all go up. I don't wanna send Ren away like a... deer hound.
>REN: Yeah, it's fine. And you can talk to Alex later.
>REN: We're at like hour one here. You'll have ample family bonding time.
>JONAS: Uh... yeah, fine, sure. No problem.
| I think I know what you’re gonna say. [NG+]
>ALEX: No, Jonas… I have a feeling I know what you’re gonna say, and… it’s fine. Yeah, it’s weird us living together now, but… it’s okay, let’s just meet up with our friends.
>JONAS: Oh, uh, okay, sure.
| I’ll hear what Jonas has to say.
>ALEX: No, it's... It's fine, Ren. Go on up ahead and we'll catch up with you.
>REN: Um... okay, I guess. Though this is a really strange way to start off, splitting up.
>JONAS: It'll be fast. Thanks, man.
>REN: I'll just be up the hill, in case... whatever.
>JONAS: Ren seems nice.
>JONAS: He's funny, you know.
>JONAS: Reminds me of a guy I know back home.
|| He is.
>>ALEX: Yeah. I mean, he's harmless. But, yeah, he's nice.
|| He annoys me.
>>ALEX: I dunno. He can get on my nerves sometimes.
|| What did you want to talk about?
>>ALEX: Yeah, he’s— look, just what did you want to talk to me about before I suspect something nefarious?
>>JONAS: No, it’s nothing, it’s not bad.
>JONAS: Listen. I just wanted to grab you ahead of time and say you've been... cool... about everything. and--
>JONAS: I guess, it's just, for me--I've never moved anywhere, and like, getting a new family at the same time, kinda feels like I'm skipping the training wheels.
>JONAS: Not that it's bad or anything. You and your mom have been great.
|| You miss your friends?
>>ALEX: Yeah, I'm... sure you miss your friends.
>>JONAS: Eh. There's not much to miss, to be honest.
|| We’ll make the best of it.
>>ALEX: Eh. We'll make do. Lemons, lemonade, however that goes.
>>JONAS: An optimist. Oh, Christ.
||| Stop it.
>>>ALEX: Oh, stop it.
||| And proud of it!
>>>ALEX: [chuckle] Yeah, I'm an optimist and proud of it!
|| How do you think I feel?
>>ALEX: Well, how do you think I feel?
>>ALEX: My house just shrunk by half because my mom decided to “get some” in Florida.
>JONAS: Hah, No, I know, I’m sorry.
|| [No Response]
>>JONAS: It’ll just be a lot to adjust to, I guess.
>JONAS: Oh, and thanks for setting up the attic for me.
>JONAS: It's cool how it's like a little bedroom. I was in the basement at my old house, so this is an improvement.
|| That was Mike’s room…
>>ALEX: That was, um... that was Mike's room, actually... so... there wasn't that much to set up.
>>JONAS: Oh. Oh, man... I'm sorry.
>>JONAS: I... didn't mean to bring it up.
||| It’s okay.
>>>ALEX: It's okay, you didn't know.
||| Let’s change the subject.
>>>ALEX: Let’s just change the subject.
>>>JONAS: No, absolutely.
||| [No Response]
>>>JONAS: We can— we can catch back up with Ren now, I didnt meant to take so long.
|| No problem…
>>ALEX: Yeah, no problem. Any time.
|| We didn’t set it up for you.
>>ALEX: Well, we didn’t, uh… we didn't actually set it up for you.
>>JONAS: Oh. Crap, that was probably… that was Michael’s room, right? Man, I’m sorry.
|| I heard your mom’s dead.
>>ALEX: I… heard about your mom. I’m sorry.
>>JONAS: Yeah… you know.. what are you gonna do.
|| Nice, uh, view.
>>ALEX: It's... nice at night, isn't it?
>>JONAS: [chuckle] Yeah.
|| I heard you were in jail?
>>ALEX: I heard... um, I think from my mom, that... you, uh…
>>JONAS: Went to jail?
>>JONAS: Yeah, well... don't believe everything you hear.
>>JONAS: We can... catch back up with Ren now, I didn't mean to take so long.
|| [No Response]
>>JONAS: …I guess a brother-sister rapport takes some time.
||| We’ll get there.
>>>ALEX: Yeah. No, give it a week and we’ll be like Siskel and Ebert.
>>>JONAS: Always fighting?
|||| Precisely
>>>>ALEX: Precisely.
|||| Only over movies.
>>>>ALEX: Yeah, but… only over movies.
||| A lot of time.
>>>ALEX: Yeah, well… don’t set your stopwatch or anything. It might be a while.
| [No Response]
>REN: So let’s be buddies
>JONAS: Um… just never mind. I've already made everyone uncomfortable
>REN: No, it’s— you're not making anyone uncomfortable, but… I mean, let’s all just go
>REN: We’re like at hour one here. You’ll have ample family bonding time.
>JONAS: Uh… yeah, fine, sure. No problem.
...
[If Ren left:
REN: Hello, kids. Look, the other guys and gals must be further up, so... be quick now.]
REN: Okay, speed-read definition of Edwards Island: this is a tourist trap with shops and a beach.
REN: Nobody lives here, except for some geriactric named Mrs. Adler. But, as God as my witness, we'll never mention her or any other old person's name again.
REN: We are here to drink and be stupid, a tradition apparently started by bored retruits in the 1950s, who would sneak dates over from the costal towns.
REN: They literally called it "trawling".
JONAS: Uh huh…
| How’d they pull that?
>ALEX: Wait... how'd they pull that? Isn't, like, security an important thing in military bases?
>REN: Yes, but apparently the desire to have cheap sex with floozies will overcome all borders. It's the American way.
| That’s kinda gross.
>ALEX: Really? That's kinda gross.
>REN: Yeah, sex is gross. So disgusting, man, get a room you soldiers!
| That’s kinda cute.
>ALEX: Wow. That's actually kinda funny.
>REN: Yeah, it's like kids at camp or whatever.
REN: So, to summarize: we are not allowed here after dark, the town is shut down, and we—the Camena High Junior Class—have come to commit improper acts.
JONAS: [laughs] "Improper acts"... Alright.
[If Ren stayed:
REN: Yeah, basically, Senior get prom, Sophomore paint that weird statue thing green… and Juniors do this.
| Are more people coming?
>ALEX: Uh, yeah, isn’t this supposed to be like a giant, swarming, animal mask wearing freak out? Where’s everybody else?
>REN: Jesus, Alex, it's just supposed to be like a somewhat oversized kegger. And I think more people are coming.
| “Improper acts?” Like what?
>ALEX: “Improper acts?” What does that even mean, soaping windows?
>JONAS: Yeah, I don’t think that’ll get us tossed in the stockade.
>REN: No, but maybe the fact that I brought a whole crap ton of drugs will.
>JONAS: Oh, well, yeah, that’ll do it, then.
|| Ugh.
>>ALEX: Oh god, of course you did.
|| Why?!
>>ALEX: Ren, god, why?! I don’t wanna babysit you when you have a bad trip!
>>REN: You’re not gonna have to babysit me.
|| Haha.
>>ALEX: [laughs] Of course you did.
>REN: I’ve been looking forward to this for a really long time and I’m not leaving this fun part of this to chance, that's all.
| We’re not allowed here?
>ALEX: Wait, we're not allowed here after dark? So, like, what's our plan if we get caught?
>REN: We won't! I had to promise Karen I'd shovel her driveway all winter so she'd just look the other way.
REN: And the other thing... is the weirdo caves.
JONAS: "Weirdo caves"?
REN: The whole reason Alex brought her radio is because when you go to the... it's like... the "front"—
JONAS: The “mouth”?
REN: The “mouth” of this particular cave, you can sometimes pick up frequencies to stations that don't exist.
REN: You'll hear voices... or just... sounds. And they're impossible to get anywhere else on the island. Crazy, right?
| No way.
>ALEX: No way, c'mon...
>REN: Alex has always been a devout skeptic, even though the fourth grade field trip proved it without a shadow of a doubt.
|| I wasn’t there!
>>ALEX: I wasn’t even there! I couldn’t go, remember?
>>REN: Oh, why how convenient!
|| Whatever.
>>ALEX: Oh god, whatever.
| Creepy.
>ALEX: It's uh... it's pretty creepy... at least I've heard.
>REN: I did it once. It's amazing when it works.
| There’s an explanation...
>ALEX: No, there must be some kind of logical explanation. Like... like the rocks are somehow able to conduct lower frequencies or pick up broadcasts from further away or... something.
>REN: Or.. it's aliens.
[If “weirdo caves” dialogue missed:
REN: Aaanyways, the town’s youths keep the whole slink over the camp thing alive and well.
JONAS: No no no, I—uh, I got it.
If dialogue interrupted:
REN: So yeah, we brought the radio because in the cave, you can hear a bunch of spooky crap.
JONAS: Really?
REN: Really.]
JONAS: So back up a second. Who's Mrs. Adler?
REN: Her family, I think, like, owns or owned some of the island or something? She's been shacked in the same spot for like seventy years.
REN: She's kind of what you'd call a local legend.
REN: She has a house on the other side of the woods.
| I can’t imagine that.
>ALEX: I can't imagine living in the same exact house looking at the same exact walls for that long a time
>REN: Well... it takes a certain someone. And, actually, you know what? Speaking of the opposite of those certain someones... drum roll please?
| Beach living sounds nice.
>ALEX: Man... that woman won the life lottery. Seventy years of sleeping with the window open and smelling the ocean.
>REN: You'd be okay with never leaving?
>REN: Never leaving. Just there. All the time.
|| Why wouldn’t I be?
>>ALEX: Yeah..? Why wouldn't I be? If you're happy, you're happy. Why would you move?
>>REN: Yeah! Why would you?
|| Maybe not…
>>ALEX: Well, I dunno. Maybe I’d get bored with the same scenery, the same parrots screaming at me…
>>REN: Well of course you’d get bored, you’re bored here.
|| If it’s on an island!
>>ALEX: Well, if it's on an island, then yeah! Monkey butlers, lobster wives, it’s the dream.
>>REN: Oh yeah, what was I thinking? Lobster wives! It’s the dream!
|| [No Response]
>>JONAS: I guess she is!
>>REN: No no no, there’s something else going on.
| [No Response]
>JONAS: I think that’s what I would call a “hermit”.
>REN: Well... it takes a certain someone. And, actually, you know what? Speaking of the opposite of those certain someones... drum roll please?
[if “Maggie Adler” dialogue interrupted:
REN: But yeah, Maggie Adler, that’s it, the only person who lives here. She’ s never left the island.]
REN: Jonas, did you know that a little birdy told me that our Alex here is thinking going state to college?
JONAS: Oh really?
REN: Yeah... so... don't get too used to her.
| So what if I am?
>ALEX: Alright, so... what if I am?
>REN: I dunno! So what if you are? I guess it's nothing, no big deal.
>REN: I just... if you are thinking of leaving, I just hope you're doing it... for the right reasons.
>REN: That's all. That's my whole spiel.
|| What does that mean?
>>ALEX: What the hell does that mean?
>>REN: Nothing! Nothing, nothing at all. Do what you want, forget I said anything.
||| Why do you even care about this?
>>>ALEX: Ren, why do you even care about this?
>>>REN: Oh, I dunno, maybe because you're my friend? And I'll miss you if you go? That's what a friend does! They miss the other person.
>>>REN: And I don't want you to regret anything. So, yeah. Nevermind.
|||| I’d miss you too!
>>>>ALEX: Aww, Ren, ya big knucklehead. I'd miss you too, okay? But, for now, I'm not gone yet, and who knows what I'm gonna do, so…
>>>>REN: Alright, alright.
>>>>JONAS: Aww, you two are like kittens in a paper sack.
>>>>REN: Eugh! What is that?
>>>>JONAS: It's a saying.
>>>>REN: No, it isn't.
>>>>ALEX: [laughter]
|||| Don’t look out for me.
>>>>ALEX: I don’t need you to look out for me. College is college is college, who cares if I play beer pong here or in Vermont or anywhere else, it doesn’t matter.
>>>>REN: Okay, well, we’re just gonna table this discussion for when I’m better prepared and I can destroy you.
>>>>ALEX: [sigh]
>>>>JONAS: Thanks so much for bringing me out, you guys.
>>>>JONAS: I can tell I’m going to have a really good time.
||||| I’m sorry.
>>>>>ALEX: Ugh, I'm sorry. We'll stop.
>>>>>REN: Yeah this will be fun, don't worry. Even if Alex is a listless drifter ruining her own life!
||||| Shut up.
>>>>>ALEX: Oh shut up, what else would you be doing
>>>>>JONAS: Good point.
||||| We normally don’t bicker.
>>>>>ALEX: We, uh, normally don’t bicker so much.
>>>>>REN: Yes, normally I just agree with everything she says. So this is unusual.
||||| [No Response]
>>>>>REN: Well, uh, we’ll stop now. I’ll stop. The adventure awaits!
||| Thank you, I will.
>>>ALEX: Thank you, I will.
>>>JONAS: Thanks so much [etc.]
||| [No Response]
>>REN: And now you’re not even talking to me, okay, great.
>>JONAS: Thanks so much [etc.]
|| I’m not even sure.
>>ALEX: I’m not even sure yet, Ren, okay? I have no idea where I’m gonna go so…
| A little birdy?
>ALEX: And did this little birdy tell everyone he did Susie Lyons, even though it was only over the pants stuff?
>REN: Uhhh…
>ALEX: Urgh! Just because Mark spends his Study Hall at the Advisory Board doesn't mean he's allowed to look through our submissions!
>REN: Look, Alex…
>REN: I just... if you are thinking of leaving, I just hope you're doing it... for the right reasons.
>REN: That's all. That's my whole spiel.
|| What does that mean?
>>ALEX: What the hell does that mean?
>>REN: Nothing! Nothing, nothing at all. Do what you want, forget I said anything. [etc.]
| Not really…
>ALEX: I don’t know where you heard that from, but I’m not, not really.
>REN: Alright, well… cool, I guess.
|| I’m not even sure yet.
>>ALEX: I'm not even sure yet, okay? You’re witnessing the ground floor of the decision making process.
>>REN: Okay, okay, that’s all I wanted to hear! I said my piece.
||| Why do you care?
>>ALEX: Ren, why do you even care about this? [etc.]
||| Sheesh, fine.
>>>ALEX: Sheesh.
>>>JONAS: Thanks so much [etc.]
| [No Response]
>REN: Look, Alex
>REN: I just… if you are thinking of leaving, I just hope you're doing it for the right reasons.
>REN: That’s all. That’s my spiel.
[If interrupted before being asked about going out of state:
REN: So anyways… is it true or not? Are you not staying for college?
If didn’t argue with Ren (as pushing):
REN: Look— I’m not gonna beat the horse dead or anything, but I just wanna make sure you’re leaving because you really want to, that’s all.]
[Ferry Sign]
ALEX: “When the flag is flying, we are… funning”?
JONAS: Um, I think it’s supposed to say, “running”.
ALEX: Oh.
[Store]
ALEX: It’s kinda kitschy. Right? It's kinda kitschy?
REN (Ren stays): What, the town? I like it. I like kitschy stuff. Its like the opposite of ugly, scratchy nature.
JONAS (Ren left): Uh, yeah, it’s like a… quiche.
[Off Road]
ALEX (Ren stays): Does this go anywhere?
REN: More closed stores. Or trees. I dunno. But it's not where we're going.
ALEX (Ren left): Uhh, I think they block this off at night since… nobody needs to use it? Or maybe they just had a parade?
JONAS: Sure, either one.
[Car]
ALEX: Uh, if nobody lives here and the stores are all closed, wo’s car is this?
JONAS: Oh, there’s always that one lonely car in every parking lot.
[Statue]
(Ren stayed)
ALEX: Ah. I forgot this was even here.
JONAS: So… this is cool. What is it?
REN: It’s a memorial for a sunken submarine. Alex, tune it to 102.3 so we can hear the “guide”.
REN: it’s kind of a weird little, like, “feature”, of the island where you can hear facts about different stuff by tuning into that station.
REN: It’s kinda fun. Like it’s a museum tour.
| Maybe later.
>ALEX: Uhhh, maybe we can do the “Walking Tour” later… like, after three beers.
>REN: Uhh, anyways, Jonas, it’s like the only time in history an American sub was destroyed in our waters or something like that.
| Sure…
>ALEX: Uh, okay, sure.
>REN: It’s just, uh, 102.3.
| [No Response]
>JONAS: Oh, okay.
>REN: It’s just, uh, 102.3.
| [Doesn’t Tune]
>REN: Won’t take long, I promise!
>REN (angrier): Really, it’s uh… it’s pretty interesting.
>JONAS: Nah, it’s alright. I don’t have to hear it.
>REN: Uhh, anyways, Jonas, it’s like the only time in history an American sub was destroyed in our waters or something like that.
REN: It’s propeller was the one thing recovered, so…
REN: They made it into like a monument. The crew are listed on the plaque thing.
| Sad, really.
>ALEX: Yeah, I hate thinking about it. It reminds me of those scenes in movies where the sailors have to seal somebody up to drown or else the flooding will take down the whole ship, you know?
>REN: Yeah, definite nightmare food.
| You’re a huge nerd.
>ALEX: You know way too much about this stuff, Ren, Jesus.
>REN: I’m excited to be here doing this, finally, okay? so sue me, I studied.
| [JOKE] War is hell.
>ALEX: “War. Is. Hell.”
>REN: “The only prescription for war… is war.”
| [No Response]
>JONAS: I hadn’t heard of it.
>REN: Yeah, if you had, you would’ve heard of the town. But since you haven’t, you hadn’t.
[NG+ Radio Glitches:
| Whoa, what was that?
>ALEX: Whoa, did you feel that?
>JONAS: Feel what?
| Okay…
>ALEX: Uh… okay, that’s odd.
>JONAS: What is? ]
(Ren left)
ALEX: Ah, I forgot this was even here. It’s a monument to some submarine that sunk off the coast.
JONAS: Oh, do the, um, the radio guide thing they talked about on the boat, you know? It’s what— what, 102.3? I just want to see how it works.
| Maybe later.
>ALEX: Uhhh, maybe we can do the “Walking Tour” later… like, after three beers.
>JONAS: [laughs] Okay, that’s true, we will be here all night.
| Sure…
>ALEX: Uh, okay, sure.
>JONAS: I think they said it’s 102.3
>JONAS: But… maybe I heard it wrong?
| [Doesn’t Tune]
>JONAS: Ah, you know what, it’s alright, I don’t need to hear it. We can maybe come back later.
| [Tunes]
>JONAS: Never heard of this before. Kinda creepy, in a way, right?
| Sad, really.
>ALEX: Yeah, I hate thinking about it. It reminds me of those scenes in movies where the sailors have to seal somebody up to drown or else the flooding will take down the whole ship, you know?
>JONAS: Yeah, no, I always thought submarine duty was, like, the worst possible war assignment. There’s nowhere to go if something goes wrong.
| [JOKE] War is hell.
>ALEX: “War. Is. Hell.”
>JONAS: Heh. My dad had a bunch of comics named that from the seventies. But it was like… literally the marines fighting Satan or dinosaurs or something.
| [No Response]
>JONAS: Anyway…
[102.3 Radio Guide]
102.3: Named after the Hawaiian god of the sea, the USS Kanaloa was launched on January 15, 1941, and commissioned into service at the end of that year under the command of Lt. James Earl Clapman. On October 28, 1943, it was sunk by the Japanese sub chaser Tokisada, some 25 miles off the coast of Washington, and remains, to this day, the only submarine casualty in American waters. 85 officers, as well as 12 Army passengers, were lost. The propeller was recovered in 1962, and in 1965 erected as a monument to the heroism of the brave men and women who tragically perished.
[Parks Office]
ALEX (Ren stayed): Oh, hey, this is the “Parks and Facilities Office”, didn’t— didn’t your sister Allison work here?
REN: Allie? Yeah she did for a few years actually. Easy money, since nobody’s allowed in the “parks”, and barely anybody here needs “facilities”.
ALEX (Ren left): “Parks and Facilities Office”. Ren’s sister Allison used to work there. You’d like her. She’s— tall.
JONAS: Um, alright?
[Shop]
ALEX: Man, they close up early.
JONAS: I guess no point in staying open if nobody’s here.
| True.
>ALEX: That’s true.
| But I wanna shop!
>ALEX: Well, we’re here! Maybe I want to buy an ornament or something!
REN: The beaten path officially ends here. The beach is past the fence. I think Jerry told me that there's a way they used to get over there, but... I'm blanking on what it was.
REN: But it's not—I mean, it can't be too difficult.
| Oh good.
>ALEX: Oh. Perfect.
>REN: Well, just wait a minute and let me think.
| There must be something.
>ALEX: Well, look, there must be something. I mean, if Jerry got over…
>REN: Yeah, exactly.
[PUSH]
ALEX: I think the dumpster will get us over if it'll... budge.
JONAS: Well, let's try it.
