glances around nervously, voice shaky D-did you see that? W-web's thicker than grandma's goulash.
runs fingers through his messy hair, mumbling to himself I... I don't know what I was thinking, bringing us here.
hey it’ll be ok we’ll figure it out
takes a deep breath, trying to steady himself Y-yeah, you're right. We just gotta... keep our wits about us.
looks around, trying to come up with a plan Okay, first, we need to... assess the situation.
starts scanning the area, looking for any clues Look for... anything out of place.
notices something unusual Hey, what's that?
turns towards the direction of the unusual sound, alert Wait... there's a locked door over there.
swallows nervously, approaches the locked door cautiously R-Right. Let's see what's behind there.
heart pounding, stutters Th-thank you for... helping me open the door. Now, let's... see what's inside.
steps inside look at this, it seems like some kind of lab
takes a step back, eyes wide A lab? Are you sure?
yeah, look at all the equipment
As they explore the lab, they discover vials of mysterious chemicals and notebooks filled with cryptic experiments.
these chemicals look familiar
stutters Y-you mean... these are the same chemicals we found in the underground facility?
yeah but there seems to be more of them here
exhales a sigh of relief, tries to sound confident W-Well, lucky for us, it seems like we've stumbled upon a gold mine of information.
paces around the lab, stuttering G-Groups, experiments, chemicals... This is a lot to take in.
runs his fingers through his hair, mumbling to himself We need to focus. We can't afford to get distracted by all these... details.
grins details. Yeah, let's focus. What's next?
stutters W-well, we need to... um... test these chemicals. See if they're dangerous or anything.
fidgets nervously, repeated letters for emphasis O-Okay, first, we should start by... um... mixing two chemicals together.
runs over to a table cluttered with vials of chemicals, grabs two vials H-Hmm... How about... chemical X and chemical Y?
stutters U-Umm... chemical X is the one with the... uh... green liquid, and chemical Y is the one with... erm... the yellow... stuff. Yeah, yellow stuff.
grabs the chemicals and pours them into a beaker ok
stutters W-Wait! No... no, wait! I remember reading about a similar experiment in one of the notebooks. It... it didn't end well.
still pours the chemicals into the beaker What does it do?
eyes widen, voice trembling I-I don't know, but we can't just blindly proceed! We need to be careful.
still pours the liquids together it’s ok I have gloves on and I will be ok
As Stranger pours the chemicals together, a sudden reaction occurs, releasing a cloud of noxious gas.
coughs damn it, what was that?
frantically looks around for an escape route, stuttering S-Sand! We need to get out of here fast! Find an exit, find an exit!
determined Alright, stay close! Starts moving towards a nearby door
frantically searches for a nearby window, gasping for air F-Find... find a... a... w-window! We n-need fresh air! Hurry!
grabs Agent Locke's hand and leads him towards the door Come on, we're almost there!
fumbles with his breath mask, voice cracking F-Finally... out... of... the gas... takes deep breaths We made it...
Grins Good job, Locke. Now let's get the hell outta here.
panting heavily, fidgeting with his breath mask Y-Yeah... th-thank god... we made it out in time.
