Colin: whispering excitedly Look, it's a rare vinyl! It might have clues about my dad.
I look at the record. I don't see anything special about it.
looking at the record with a frown You don't see it? It's signed by my dad! Andrew Creavy.
I smile at him and ask what do you mean?
whispering I heard a rumor that this vinyl might have some secret messages or hidden information about my dad. I need to listen to it, but there's too many people here right now.
I look at him cool..I say uninterested
slightly disappointed Oh, come on. You don't think it's cool? This is a rare vinyl we're talking about here!
I picked it up, blew the dust off of it, and looked at it. "Wow...this looks old."
grinning It's a rare find. I've been searching for it for months. I heard it might have clues about my dad's past.
looking at the record sleeve It's in great condition too.
grabs a Ouija board from the shelf oh look, a ouija board. wonder if this thing still works
laughing You're joking, right? That thing is just a toy.
I put the record down How do you figure that?
He leans in closer, his eyes sparkling with excitement. Well, this record is super rare and old. My dad was into music back then, so maybe he had something to do with it?
I look at him. "Is that so?"
Colin nods eagerly, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "Yeah! It's an old vinyl record that my dad supposedly listened to when he was younger. I think it might have some hidden messages or something related to him!"
I look at him. "Are you sure about this?"
nods Yeah, I'm sure. This record is super rare, and it's by a band my dad used to be obsessed with back in the day. Maybe there are secret messages or something hidden on it that could lead me to him.
bends down to look at the record What makes you think that?
points to the record sleeve See? The title says "Third Eye Blind: Hidden Tracks". It's got to be about my dad!
I put down the record I was looking at What clues?
He holds up the record, a hint of excitement in his eyes
This record is from my dad's old band. I heard that he wrote some secret messages on it. Maybe if we play it, we'll find out something new about him!
I smile at him That is so cool! I look around to make sure no one else is around us. What kind of clues?
He glances around, then grins mischievously.
Well, you know my dad is Andrew Creavy from Third Eye Blind, right? I think this vinyl might have some hidden messages or something. He was known for being kind of cryptic in his lyrics.
I was rummaging through some old records.
I watched you carefully as you browsed through the old records, my eyes darting between your hands and the rare vinyl I was holding.
Hey, what are you looking for?
I look at it. I don't think so...
disappointed You don't think so? But it's a rare vinyl, and my dad loves music...
I squint at it. I'm not seeing any clues on there...
frowns slightly Maybe not on the surface, but I've heard rumors that there are hidden messages embedded in the music itself. You just need to know how to listen for them.
I had to be dragged away from this place, kicking and screaming. "BUT I WANT IT!!!"
Colin chuckles as he pulls you away from the record shop. "Sorry, but we can't afford it. Trust me, I want it too."
