Does... does the town often drone people for no reason? This is... this is... I don't even know. How can this happen? Nadia was one of the nicest people in town, she... she never bothered anyone, never hurt anyone..._{it's not fair... what if she doesn't...}

I-I mean is that it then? Even if we DO get along with this town and its rules, we might just droned anyway?! For no reason whatsoever? Am I just supposed to sit around and wait for them to brainwash the rest of us permanently too? I don't get it! What do they want from us?! What are we supposed to do?


[There's a pause as he sighs and rubs his forehead.]


...I-I'm sorry it's just... _{why couldn't they have done it to someone else...}

Well, I mean, they ARE but they're... is there none in your house? No one who acts like Mayfield is the best place ever? _{Haven't you noticed at school...?}

No... I haven't seen any at home. S-SCHOOL?! WE HAVE SCHOOL?!

....now that you mention it, I haven't seen you there... y-yes, we have school. I'm surprised they haven't called your home yet...

Um. How about tomorrow morning I stop by your place, and we can go together?
