Entry #15
[00:00] Black screen. [00:01] White text appears centered on the screen:
Entry #15 I was able to find Lizzy, one of the actresses in Marble Hornets, and arrange a meeting. In order to convince her to meet me, I told her I was going to finish the film, and if she could do a screen test.
[00:19] Cut to footage of the floor as Suzan walks into a building. [00:26] Suzan: "Hey, uh hey Lizzy." [00:28] Lizzy is seen at a water fountain. Lizzy: "Oh hey. Uh, Suzan, right?" [00:30] Suzan: "Yeah, right." Lizzy: "Okay." Lizzy and Suzan continue talking as they walk into a room with a desk. [00:32] Suzan: "Uh, you ready to do your screen test for this?" [00:34]Lizzy: "Uhh…I guess so, I mean it's been quite a while, so you'll have to kinda get me up to speed, but…" [00:40] Suzan: "Right, that's fine. I can do that." [00:41] Suzan places the camera on the table. Lizzy's face is not in view during the interview. Lizzy has a notebook in front of her. [00:43] Suzan: "I'll just put the camera down here. Here's the script for the screen test." [00:45] Lizzy: "Okay." [00:46] Suzan: "And I'll just be taking some notes." [00:48] Lizzy: "Alright. Can I write on this?" [00:50] Suzan: "Yeah, that's fine; it's, it's yours, you can have it. Um…" Lizzy(overlapping): "Oh, okay." [00:53] Suzan: "Before we do the screen test, uh, I want to ask you a few questions about the production before, before now." [00:59] Lizzy: "Just like, locations or something? Cause I think I remember there were a couple around here, but." [01:04] Suzan: "More…more specifically the director, Chloe. Chloe Kralie." [01:09] Lizzy: "Um, I don't really remember much. I mean, she was a friend of Shea's so I didn't really talk to her that much. I mean, she just kinda asked me to be the part of the cast for the sake of convenience." [01:18] Suzan: "Right, okay. Uh, like did you live near her?" [01:21] Lizzy: "Um, yeah. Well I..I..um..I.." [01:23] Suzan: "Relatively speaking, she kinda lived in the middle of nowhere, right?" [01:26] Lizzy: "Well, I..I've..I've lived next to Shea, so I never really lived near Chloe. she was just kinda off." [01:35] Suzan: "Okay. Uh, in terms of his directing at the time, how was she as a director?" [01:40] Lizzy: "Uh, she was a pretty decent director…ah, well, at first." [01:45] Suzan: "At first?" [01:45] Lizzy: "Yeah, after a while she got to the point where, uh, I mean it seemed like after a while she got to the point where she would be yelling at us more than he'd be actually be filming the movie. So he'd just be really paranoid, waving his camera around all over the place. I mean, I just couldn't really…" [02:02] Suzan: "Other than the camera she was using to shoot the…?" [02:06] Lizzy: "Yeah, she had a handheld she was carrying around with her all over the place." [02:09] Suzan coughs. Suzan: "Okay. Uh, any…" [02:13] Lizzy: "And a ton of tapes too. Like bags of tapes in the back of his car." [02:18] Suzan: "How many…how many would you say she had?" [02:20] Lizzy: "Um, way more than necessary." [02:23] Suzan: "More than you would need to make a production like this?" [02:25] Lizzy: "Yeah." Suzan: "Just for her self." [02:26] Lizzy: "Mhmm. Yeah." [02:28] Suzan: "K. So something like fifteen or twenty." [02:32] Suzan: "Uh, speaking of Chloe, I don't know if you knew this or not, but she did move away after she ended his production. Do you know what might have caused her to do that, or even where she might have gone to?" [02:42] Lizzy: "I didn't even know she had moved away. I mean, like I said, Shea was really the one who was friends with her. I was just kinda along was for the ride. [02:50] Suzan: "Do you happen to know where Shea is?"" [02:53] Lizzy: "I haven't heard from Shea either. Not for quite a while, actually." [02:58] Suzan: "So you wouldn't know what caused Chloe to move away?" [03:02] Lizzy: "No. I did remember Shea say something about like..I think somebody was leaving dead animals in his front yard or something." [03:12] Suzan: "Like pets, or..do you really know?" [03:16] Lizzy: "What do you mean pets?" [03:18] Suzan: "Like cats or dogs or anything?" [03:19] Lizzy: "I don't think so." [03:20] Suzan: "Because she did live in a heavily wooded area." [03:23] Lizzy: "I don't think it was anything like that, but I mean you'd have to ask Shea. I'm not really the…" [03:27] Suzan: "Okay." [03:28] Suzan:" Uh." Short pause. "More about the set of Marble Hornets. Was there anything…I know that…I know that, you know, most of the places that you filmed this. There were some indoors…like interior scenes, but most of it was exterior. In the woods, right?" [03:42] Lizzy: "Yeah, I mean it was like parks, and some woods…just kinda like off in the woods." [03:47] Suzan: "Right, I mean Chloe took me location scouting with her a few times, so I did see a few of the places she was thinking about. But did you happen to notice… I know these were public places, and there are people there, but did you notice anything out of the ordinary about any people?" [04:03] Lizzy: "No, I mean it was just families, kids, you know. I mean, you just have to get people off the set on a regular basis, so…" [04:11] Suzan: "Anything, anyone who would be in a scene in a place like that, like a park or anything? Like a guy in a business suit?" [04:22] Lizzy: "I don't remember. I mean, it was quite a while ago. There may have been, but I mean…it's several years ago. You're asking me about a guy in a suit, so…" [04:34] Suzan: "So you don't really remember…" [04:35] Lizzy: "No." [04:36] Suzan: "…anything specific about someone you had to move off the camera?" [04:37] Lizzy picks up the script. Lizzy: "No, I mean it's just nothing out of the ordinary." [04:42] Suzan: "Okay, I was just wondering since I have the raw footage of the tapes." [04:51] Lizzy puts the script down. Lizzy: "Yeah, um… I'm really sorry, but I have to get to lunch after this." [04:55] Suzan: "Lets do this real quick, get the camera set up." [04:59] The camera moves up to Lizzy. [05:00] Video ends.

Program
The video starts with two seconds of a slightly distorted color correction test screen, then cuts to red-tinted video footage. It appears to be the outside of a house, with the majority of the house hidden by trees. The audio appears to be a ticking sound (like a movie projector) mixed in with a repeating music loop. An undulating hand-drawn "S" occupies the lower-left hand corner of the screen.
At 0:08, a code flashes on the door of the house (repeating three times):
00 0- -0 0- 00 00 00 0- 00 00 0- -- 00 00 00 0-
Finally, the video ends with the words "bleed more" written curiously, like so:

Entry #14
[00:00] Black screen. [00:02] White text appears centered on the screen:
Entry #14
[00:06] Cut to footage of the door of Chloe's room. It is slightly open. The video's frame rate is out of sync from 0:06 to 0:08. [00:20] The Operator's arm begins pushing open the door. The Operator slowly enters then room and walks left out of the frame. [00:53] Chloe picks up the camera and turns on the light. [01:01] Chloe turns the camera back toward the door, which is now open. [01:07] Chloe walks over to the door and closes it, leaving it slightly open as it was at the beginning of the video. [01:15] Chloe walks back to where he was sleeping and turns off the light. [01:27] White text appears centered on the screen:
About 32 minutes pass on the tape before Chloe changes it.
[01:32] Cut to Chloe covered in blood, filming her face and looking at something across the room. The camera goes in and out of focus before focusing. [01:47] A beeping sound is heard. Chloe looks at the camera and then turns it off. [01:49] Cut to black. [01:51] White text appears centered on the screen:
I need to find out where Chloe has gone.
[01:56] Words disappear. [01:58] Video ends.

Exit
The video starts with quick flashes of the words "Rat" "He" "Ore" and "Top" - an anagram for "the operator". Buzzing can be heard during this segment.
Footage from a handheld camcorder flickers, then steadies and zooms in on a white convertible. Suzan walks around the back of the car and enters in through the driver's side - Suzan confirmed later via twitter that he was looking for batteries for Alex's camera. This places the footage directly after Suzan's exit from Entry 13.
Cars passing on the nearby street are the only audio - this background sound was also heard in Entry 13. Whoever is filming Suzan is hiding next to a tree behind cover of ferns and other leafy plants. The car's license plate cannot be seen throughout the clip (it is covered by a fern leaf the entire time). The video seems to have a filter applied that turns darker areas of the clip completely black.
Suzan pops the trunk, gets out of the car, and opens the trunk. After a few moments, she finds what he is looking for, closes the trunk (while looking at the camera for a split second), and locks up the car. He runs back to where he started - the camera follows his movements, then runs after him. A beep is heard, and the video cuts.
If this video is downloaded from YouTube and played in a standard media player, the text "WHEREIS THEARK" is displayed on the last frame of the clip.

Entry #13
[00:00] Black screen. [00:02] White text appears centered on the screen:
Entry #13
[00:04] Cut to footage of the ground in a forest. Chloe's foot is seen. Chloe: "Yeah, this one's kinda low. Um." [00:08] Suzan: "Do you have the extra one?" [00:10] Chloe: "No, I think I left it in the car. Uh, can you go get it1?" [00:13] Suzan: "Yeah." [00:14] Chloe: "Okay." [00:16] Suzan: "Oh, wait. Where is it?" [00:17] Chloe: "Uh, I think I left it in the passenger seat." [00:20] Suzan: "Okay." Chloe: "If not, the trunk." [00:22] Suzan: "Okay." [00:23] Chloe: “I'm going to keep on going though, so just…" [00:24] Suzan: "I'll meet you down there." [00:25] Chloe: "Okay." Chloe walks into the forest, Suzan runs back toward the car. [00:27] The video cuts to Chloe pointing the camera at trees. [00:35] The video cuts to Chloe brushing off the Operator symbol (an ellipse with an X through it) on pavement outside a building with an X drawn on the side. [00:42] Chloe looks up at the roof of the building, then walks under a fence into the grassy field. [00:54] Chloe passes by a marker on the ground that reads 3'8". [00:56] Distortion is heard. [00:58] Some static is heard, then the sound cuts out for the rest of the video. [01:00] Chloe looks up at what appear to be bleachers. [01:04] Chloe moves the camera to the left and sees the Operator is seen beyond a fence. Chloe runs toward the fence with the camera pointed at the ground and makes his way to the building the Operator was near. [1:14] Chloe walks along the concrete wall of the building. [1:26] Chloe turns a corner and the Operator is seen. The camera moves down quickly. [1:28] Cut to black. [1:29] Video ends.

Impurity
The video seems to be in four sections.
In the first section, there is no audio track, and the only visual is a blinking "begin".
In the second section, a series of zeroes is presented, where the main message seems to be:
00000000000000000000000000 00000 000000000000000000 000000000000000
In the third section, some tree tops are filmed in the rain during a thunder storm. The audio appears to be of that storm - including rain and thunder sounds - along with a frequency of 1046 Hz. Right before the cut to the fourth section, the word "operator" appears in the plant.
In the fourth section, a heavily distorted audio clip is played and the screen is filled with zeroes. Among the zeroes are the letters "T H E R E W A S M R E."

Entry #12
[00:00] Black screen. [00:01] White text appears centered on the screen:
Entry #12 I found another clip with heavy distortion. In it, Chloe is acting more like himself.
[00:09] Cut to footage of a park with trees and a line of bushes. Chloe: "Uh, I dunno. He'll move. Uh, let's go ahead and get this shot. It is so hot." [00:13] Shea: "Okay." [00:16] Chloe: "Shea, we have the camera cut. Just get set to control it, and we'll be out of here in a moment." [00:22] Shea: "Are we doing lines?" [00:23] Chloe: "Not in this part, we're just, uh, walking to the river and that's when you guys will start picking up. [00:29] Audio distortion is heard. The quality of the video and sound changes. Chloe continues speaking: "Uh, just follow us as we cross into the frame." [00:33] Camerawoman: "Alright." [00:34] Chloe and Shea cross the frame walking towards the river to the right. The camera follows them. [00:39] Chloe: "I hope so." [00:41] Chloe and Shea break character and turn back. Chloe: "And that's about as far as we're going to go. We don't want side… -indecipherable-" [00:43] The camera begins moving back to the left. It stops with a view of the Operator. [00:46] Shea?: "That would be gross." [00:48] Chloe: "Oh, here's Tim." It becomes apparent that the Operator is not Tim. [00:52] Chloe: "Alright, uh, let's get him off the set… I hope he's not angry at us. Hey! Buddy!" [00:57] Camerawoman: "What's he doing?" [01:00] Cut to black. Video ends.

Deluge
The audio is a distorted bass noise. Included in the mix is a slow voice repeating what sounds like "Alex" backwards on the left channel.
The video ends with the text "WATCHING YOU" - you is in bold, and spelled using the letter O rather than a zero.

Entry #11
[00:00] Black screen. [00:01] White text appears centered on the screen:
Entry #11 I found another clip of a close encounter. However, I don't think Chloe was aware of it.
[00:11] Cut to footage of Chloe laying in her bed. Pictures are hanging on the wall behind her. [00:17] Chloe quickly gets out of bed and grabs the camera. [00:23] Chloe leaves the room. [00:25] Chloe shut off the light. [00:27] Chloe walks down some stairs and through a room. [00:40] The camera is pointed through some blinds out a window. We see darkness and a fence. [00:47] Chloe turns and walks away from the window. It is too dark to see anything. [00:51] Chloe arrives in a lit room with carpet, the camera is pointed at the floor. [00:56] The camera is pointed out a window as Chloe pulls apart a crack in the blinds. [01:00] Chloe turns around and walks back into a dark room. [01:07] The Operator is seen out a window on the right side of the frame. Chloe does not seem to notice. [01:11] Chloe peers through the blinds of a window in the room. [01:24] Chloe turns the light by the stairs back on and walks up the stairs. [01:33-01:41] Chloe sets the camera down and repositions it the way it was in the beginning of the video. [01:44-01:50] Chloe lies down in his bed. [01:54] A shadow passes over Chloe. [01:56] A breeze moves the sketches slightly. [01:57] Black screen. [01:58] Video ends.

Operator
The audio is heavily distorted and appears to be from something outdoors, possibly Entry 4 or Entry 10. The video is a sequence of appearances of text. They appear and disappear on different parts of the screen, appearing in different groupings and in different (or similar) locations.

Entry #10
[00:00] Black screen. [00:02] White text appears centered on the screen:
Entry #10 Found another troubling clip. Whatever was following Chloe has her running now.
[00:14] Footage of the camera being flung around while Chloe runs through a forest at night. The beam of Chloe's flashlight is sometimes seen. The video has no sound. [00:30] Chloe stops and searches tall grass with his flashlight. [00:49] Chloe's flashlight stops on the Operator behind the tall grass. [00:50] Chloe starts running through the forest again. [01:05] Chloe reaches an area with concrete on the ground outside a building. Chloe films the ground. [01:12] Chloe searches the grass at the border of the forest with his flashlight. [01:20] Chloe points the camera up, her face is seen for a moment. [01:24] Chloe begins pointing her flashlight into the forest again. [01:27] The flashlight stops upon the Operator. [01:28] The camera points to the ground as Chloe starts running again. [01:30] Black screen. [01:31] Video ends.

Entry #9
[00:00] Black screen. [00:01] White text appears centered on the screen:
Entry #9 I have never seen Chloe act the way she does in the following raw footage from Marble Hornets.
[00:13] Cut to footage of Lizzy and Jackie in a gazebo. Lizzy is leaning against the railing and Jackie is standing, facing her. Lizzy is speaking: "— seems really distant ever since he came back, you know?" [00:17] Jackie spreads her hands and says, "And?" [00:18] Lizzy: "I mean, have you talked to him at all?" She gestures with a hand. [00:20] Jackie: "No." She shakes her head. She is fidgeting with something in her hands, or possibly just her hands. [00:21] Lizzy: "Well, uh…did he come back because of you? Because he never told me why he was here." [00:26] Jackie: "Doesn't really matter, does it? He left me when he went off to the city and that's that." She looks away from Lizzy vaguely, a little more in the direction of the camera.. [00:30] Lizzy: "Yeah, yeah. I guess you're right." Lizzy takes a cigarette box out of her right pocket. Jackie is examining her hand idly. [00:34] Lizzy: "So. I mean what's… what's…what's the plan now for you? What's next?" Lizzy takes out a cigarette and brings it to her mouth. [00:39] Jackie sighs, and says: "I'm not really going to do anything." [00:41] Lizzy takes out a lighter and lights her cigarette. [00:44] Chloe, from offscreen: "We're going to do it again." Both Jackie and Lizzy look at her. "The pacing still feels weird, it's…it doesn't sound like a conversation." [00:49] Chloe moves onscreen from the right. Lizzy puts his cigarettes back in her pocket. Chloe: "You guys still sound like you're reading off the script. Let's just… just have a conversation. Let's do it again!" [00:57] Lizzy says to Jackie: "Still? Still! Eight takes. Still." Lizzy lights her cigarette again. Children can be heard playing in the background. [01:04] Lizzy, cigarette in his mouth: "Can we go yet?" [01:05] Chloe, offscreen: "Action." Children can still be heard running about. [01:07] Chloe: "Well, no. No we can't. Just a second." [01:08] Lizzy: Well, yeah. That's… wonderful." [01:11] Jackie: "That's what happens when you plan on a public place." She brushes hair out of her face. Lizzy takes a drag. Chloe can be heard sighing, and the camera adjusts. [01:16] Lizzy: "Good thing I didn't have anything to do later today." [01:17] Jackie: "Yeah, I know. Twelve to one, yeah right." [01:19] Chloe, interrupting Jackie: "Why would you have anything to do anyway? You knew you were coming on set. You knew this could take a while. And obviously it is." [01:24] Lizzy, overlapping Chloe: "Yeah, it was supposed to be an afternoon shoot though." [01:28] Chloe sighs. She says: "If you guys would do it right the FIRST TIME, we wouldn't have to…" [01:30] Lizzy, overlapping Chloe: "It was an afternoon shoot, I didn't even buy lunch." [01:32] Jackie, overlapping Lizzy: "Let's just do it again! Let's just do it again." Chloe, overlapping Jackie: "Let's just do it again. Just stop." [01:34] Lizzy: "Alright." [01:35] Chloe: "Action." [01:38] Lizzy: "He seems really distant ever since he came back, you know?" [01:39] Chloe, interrupting: "Cut. From the beginning." Lizzy sighs and goes to stand up, and Jackie throws her hands down. [01:41] Cut to the same scene. Lizzy is sitting back down and Jackie is fiddling with her hands again. [01:42] Mack, behind the camera: "Rolling." [01:44] Chloe, offscreen: "What? Rolli…" Jackie throws her hands down and she and Lizzy look at one another. Chloe: "Did you not have it recording during the break?" Jackie leans in to apparently say something to Lizzy. Chloe continues: "I told you to keep the camera recording at ALL TIMES. Ohhh…how long was it off?" Lizzy and Jackie are taking quietly in the background. [01:56] Mack: "I forgot for a second." Lizzy and Jackie look right, towards Chloe. [01:58] Chloe: "You forgot. I…I gave you one job. All you were supposed to do was come in here, set up the camera, make sure it doesn't fall over, and press record ONCE. You don't stop it at all. I made this extremely clear." Jackie and Lizzy exchange an exasperated look, then Jackie looks intently in Chloe's direction. [02:09] Jackie: "Is this…hey, is this going to be on for a while? Can I get a script again?" She reaches off camera, fidgeting with her hair. [02:15] Mack moves onto frame from behind the camera. He hands Jackie a script, and then looks to the right, towards Chloe. Mack: "Just saving time on the tapes." Jackie and Lizzy are looking at the script together. [02:17] Chloe: "Savi….you helped me load up the car!" Chloe moves onscreen from the right. Chloe: "You know how many tapes we have. If we run out of time on this tape," Chloe waves to the camera with a piece of paper and then her hand, and continues, "we'll get another. It's not a problem. I mean, how clear do I have to make it before you listen?" [02:26] Mack moves offscreen again, and so does Chloe. Lizzy stands up. [02:30] Chloe: "I mean…get off…You brought your dog!? How many…how many sense is that?" [02:33] Jackie, abruptly looking up and to the right: "Guys, calm down." [02:35] Chloe, offscreen: "Memorize your lines." [02:36] Jackie: "It was just a mistake." [02:37] Chloe: "Memorize your lines, maybe we'll get through this a little bit faster." Jackie looks slowly back down at the paper. [02:39] Lizzy, mocking Chloe: "Memorize your lines, just don't…just don't read them right off the page." [02:42] Jackie, sarcastically: "Oh, okay." Lizzy: "You gotta be a little more… human with it, don't be so…" [02:43] Jackie: "Because I've had the script in every scene." [02:45] Lizzy: "Exactly." Lizzy sits back down. [02:46] Chloe: "Yeah, you know, act. How 'bout that." Jackie whips her head around to look at Chloe and crosses her arms. [02:49] Lizzy: "Oh yeah yeah, that's, that's, that's, that's real nice. You know, considering how much you're paying us and everything." [02:53] Chloe: "Why would I pay you for what you're giving me? I mean, really." [02:56] Lizzy: "Oh that's… yeah, that's real nice." [02:57] Jackie: "Who else is going to work with you with this attitude?" [02:59] Chloe sighs, offscreen, and says: "Look, I'm sorry—" [03:02] Lizzy: "Yeah, you spent so much money on tapes you can't afford actors anyway." Jackie turns around, arms still crossed, and turns away from the camera. [03:07] Chloe sighs again, and says: "Let's just get it done with, alright? Let's just get it done. I'm sorry, just don't stop recording, it's not a problem. Plenty of tapes." Jackie turns around again. [03:17] Mack: "Okay, fine. Sorry." [03:19] Cut to black. [03:21] White text appears centered on the screen:
Chloe seems to have been filming herself constantly even before she stopped work on Marble Hornets. Whoever had been following Chloe seems to have stressed her to the point of it affecting her personality.
[03:36] Video ends.

Entry #8
[00:00] Black screen. [00:01] White text appears centered on the screen:
Entry #8 I did not notice any visual tearing anywhere in this tape. However, the audio does cut out.
[00:10] Cut to footage of Chloe, her face just barely in the top of the frame, leaning over a table covered in pieces of paper with writing and images on them. She is scribbling in a coil-bound notebook with a piece of charcoal. The scrawled drawings are of an ellipse with an X through it, some of which are attached to a body. Words like "SEES", "SEES ME", "FINDS ME", "SPEAKS TO ME", "TREE", "Trees", "HI", and "[unreadable] THESE PINES" cover the pages. Several of the images seem to be of the Operator, who appears to be a stick figure with long arms drooping down and an X through his face - this includes the drawing Chloe is working on when the clip begins. To the left of that drawing is a picture of the Operator standing next to a pine tree. Below him is written the word "Trees" - this word is not bolded and is in title case rather than all-caps. Chloe is scribbling the letters "H E L" on a notepad. [00:17] The audio cuts out. Chloe stops scribbling and stays still. [00:18] Chloe gets up abruptly. He picks up the camera, and pans up and to the left, bringing the frame into total darkness. [00:24] The camera approaches a lamp with a yellow shade. [00:26] The lamp turns off. The frame is once again black. [00:29] White text appears centered on the screen:
The rest of the tape remains too dark to see and the audio never comes back.
[00:36] Video ends.

Entry #7
[00:00] Black screen. [00:01] White text appears centered on the screen:
Entry #7 The tape I just watched consisted entirely of raw footage from Marble Hornets. Other than Shea, Chloe also seems to be talking to a girl off camera at one point.
[00:19] Footage of Shea sitting in a car, looking forward and down. The camera is pointed at him from the driver's seat and he is in the passenger's seat. Behind him is visible a street and part of an alley. [00:22] Chloe moves the camera away from Shea, tilting it about 45 degrees. [00:23] Chloe says: "Let's start again." [00:24] Shea says, gesturing toward himself, "Let's start again. Sorry." He is looking at the camera and grinning a little. [00:25] The camera returns to filming Shea, upright and level. Shea bites his lower lip. [00:26] Cut to footage of the same scene. Shea is pointing at the camera. Shea says, "So I look at you?" He brings his hand down and looks forward again. [00:27] Chloe: "Yeah that's fine. Alright, I'm rolling, and uh, just a second let me…" The camera jostles a little. [00:32] Shea sighs, puts his hand to his head and rubs the bridge of his nose. [00:34] Video cuts to the same scene. Shea is biting his lip again. He looks at the camera and says, gesturing behind him with a thumb, "I thought you were talking to her." [00:35] The camera turns towards the dashboard, jostling. Chloe says, "No. Crap, I just lost the script." [00:38] Chloe swings the camera left and down as he opens the driver's side door. Something, probably his keys, falls to the pavement. [00:41] Chloe retrieves his keys and turns the camera back into the car, upside down. [00:44] The video cuts to Shea sitting in the passenger's seat again. The camera is jostling slightly. Shea is grinning. Chloe says, "And I'm talking to Shea." [00:45] Shea laughs. A visual tear occurs along the bottom of the screen. [00:46] Shea leans forward in mirth, still laughing. The tear resolves. [00:47] Chloe: "Yeah, don't say anything because the camera picks it up. Alright, you ready?" Shea sighs. [00:54] Shea: "Yeah, are you going to feed me Tim's lines?" [00:56] Chloe: "Uh, yeah, just second." The camera shifts view as he retrieves the script. The autofocus blurs for a moment. [01:00] The camera rights itself. [01:02] Chloe: "Alright, action." [01:05] Shea sighs, then says, "I don't know, this town just doesn't feel the same to me anymore. I missed it so much when I was in college. But now that I'm back, I just feel like a depressed teenager all over again, stuck in a loop of unhappiness." [01:22] Chloe: "Maybe you've grown up." [01:24] Shea: "I don't know, maybe this town has grown up." [01:27] Chloe: "Maybe it has." [01:31] Shea sighs. [01:31] Chloe: "Alright, good." [01:34] Shea leans back, revealing the alleyway that his head had previously blocked. There is a figure that appears to be the Operator at the far end of the alley, partially concealed by the alley's wall. [01:39] Shea looks at Chloe and says, "Are we going to do it again?" [01:42] Shea repeats: "Are we?" [01:43] Chloe: "No, we're done." The camera pans left, to the dashboard. [01:44] Shea, off-camera: "That's it?" [01:45] Chloe: "Yeah, we're done." The camera continues to move, catching the steering wheel. Keys jingling can be heard. [01:48] Shea, offscreen: "Okay…" [01:49] Chloe starts the car. [01:50] Loud, buzzing audio distortion sets in. [01:51] Cut to black. [01:52] White text appears centered on the screen:
Someone was following Chloe.
[02:00] Video ends.
