Do we think that “the core” refers to a group within OSDM…….or a group of core participants? Contextually, it sounds a lot like they’re talking about participants.

“I just don’t think the core understand how critical they are. Maybe the visit we have planned will help…”

“…it’s not the core’s usual inside-drama….my second biggest fear…is tha…[Read more]

“I think I’ll be done crunching the EI reports by 1…” “I might not make lunch after all, this must be corrupted, the index is all over the board…” The EI reports….Emotional Index?

“Hey, do me a favor and check the current numbers on RE? I can’t believe she came back and was just like, BLAM! I heard she purposely didn’t give him anything to wor…[Read more]

A few thoughts on watching the video back…

Jacob: “DID YOU PLEDGE YOUR DESIRE FOR OUR SACRIFICE AND FREEDOM??!!!”
– “Our”. Not “their”. “Our”.
– We’ve been wondering for a while about whose sacrifice we’d pledged our desire for. Jacob belongs to several categories. Which category was he referring to when he said “our”? “Our sacrifice and…[Read more]

@kasch Was the implication that Noah knew you’d “written novels to the CEO” because you’d posted about it on the forum…or because he has access to everything Stacey has access to?

“I’m charge of it. I’m in charge of ALL of it. The back end, the tracking.”

I didn’t really follow what this meant. Was this a confession of her involvement in tracking us, something she’d seemed oblivious about before? But why did she know about the tracking but not about the bugs until now?

“They don’t want money.” “W…you didn’t say that…[Read more]

@thegilded – Oh, interesting. You think this could have been another way of getting to Morgan? It would make sense. They ransack his apartment, can’t find what they’re looking for (whatever that is), bug my place and possibly his to try to find it?

Oh and @macbethinabathtub it was NOT the leather-bound notebook with folded pages, it was an ordinary lined notebook.

@kortneydarling – It’s always possible that she planted it…but what would she have to gain? I forgot to mention, I asked her who had put it there and she specifically said she couldn’t say. So she wasn’t using it to try to turn me against anyone or make me paranoid. The bug was significant to her, but she wouldn’t share anything about that…[Read more]

@coryphella I am deeply curious about how your friend is Ninja-like and what induced them to become that way.

I’m at home now and there doesn’t seem to be anything out of place…

I wondered a bit if she had detected an anomaly at all, or if she simply wanted to know when I’d be home, and cobbled together her story about my IP being in use to disguise the question.

Edit: @moustachemax beat me to it

@meghanmayhem She did seem baffled, she was stammering.

I forgot to mention her Freudian slip, and in retrospect it may not have been a slip at all. When she said “back end traffic” she actually said “back end trap– traffic”.

@bryan Did you get this call too?

Did anyone else?

WTF?!

Interesting change of tone from her last phone call, when she appeared to be desperate and frightened. No “Why haven’t you left the state yet,” no explanation about how her last call got cut off by a mysterious male voice…just annoyed orders?

Who are the two accounts that she’s admitting were compromised? I’m sure it’s more than that, but if she’s admitting to two…is this a reference to the phone calls Bryan and I got?

Random note: the song in the background was called “Eclipse” – by Helen Jane Long.
