To sleep for a chance not to dream. I
0:30
guess he's gone. Whoever he was.
0:45
Didn't think I'd be here again. Got to
0:48
say, it's a treat to see the sun.
0:51
Fabian.
0:53
Huh?
0:53
What? Oh, fire.
0:58
Heck. Well, hello to you too then.
1:00
How is this still here?
1:03
It's a construct, I suppose. A memory in
1:07
your head. In our head, like we're
1:11
telling each other a story, even after
1:14
the gardener is gone. I wonder why he
1:16
kept sending me back into those
1:18
memories, those dreams.
1:21
A tale told for an audience to digest.
1:47
And he said she was his grandmother. Can
1:49
you believe it? I was right about the
1:52
buck te.
1:53
His grandmother
1:55
in that outfit. Oh, heavens.
2:00
Oh, my boy. It never ceases to amaze me
2:02
how these things land at your door.
2:08
You know the Greek thing, right? About
2:10
the fates. Three of them spinning all
2:12
day, keeping the whole world in a
2:14
pattern. Well, that's got to be dull,
2:16
right? I mean, real boring. You've seen
2:18
one human life, you've seen a hundred.
2:21
If I were a fate, I know I'd get bored.
2:23
start sneaking in the odd cross stitch
2:25
or maybe a picture of a jack rabbit,
2:27
wouldn't you?
2:28
I guess I can appreciate that. The world
2:31
is stranger than anyone thinks. But tell
2:35
me, how do your investigations proceed?
2:44
Don't even start that sentence, my boy.
2:47
Right. Sure. Yep.
2:54
The killer's gone public. There was only
2:56
so much time we could spend covering it
2:57
up. Papers got hold of it. They're
3:00
calling him the rebar killer.
3:03
In my opinion, there's very little that
3:05
a concerted effort by the Camarilla
3:07
can't cover up.
3:08
You think someone leaked it?
3:10
It would not surprise me.
3:13
H wonder who gets something out of that.
3:17
Fear is a powerful thing.
3:20
Got to say, I'm stumped. We have a
3:23
hunter. Mortal, I think, but I'm not
3:25
even sure about that. More than mortal.
3:29
Incredibly strong. Can sneak up on
3:31
Kindred, stake them just like that. Has
3:34
a heck of a jewelry supplier and access
3:37
to a buildingard.
3:40
It strikes me, my boy, that this is one
3:43
of your stories.
3:45
How do you mean? A tale told for an
3:47
audience to digest. Has anyone seen this
3:51
killer? Does he even exist?
3:55
Now that's an interesting thought.
4:01
Well, hello you two.
4:03
Sophia, take a seat.
4:15
Did you like the puzzle?
4:18
It was wonderful. Thank you so much. An
4:21
acrostic playing underneath one of
4:23
Carol's ladders. I did get it.
4:26
Velociped, right?
4:27
Which is why Bone and Shaker were at the
4:30
start. You got it.
4:32
How's your night been? Anything
4:33
interesting? Fabian was just telling me
4:36
his ideas on this Rebar killer as the
4:38
public are calling him.
4:40
Well, that's inaccurate for a start. It
4:42
isn't rebar that kills them. Kindred are
4:45
arguably already dead. If you want to be
4:48
picky, you could say final death happens
4:50
when the head comes off. As for mortals,
4:53
rebar through the chest would certainly
4:54
give them a bad few moments. But again,
4:57
the head is the clincher.
4:59
The curse of a vivid imagination. I can
5:01
just feel it. An iron steak bursting out
5:04
of me or that crack as my head comes off
5:08
makes me shiver. Let's talk about
5:10
something else.
5:17
How is the court handling Rosalyn's
5:19
death?
5:20
Lou is devastated. Of course,
5:22
genuinely.
5:24
Well, even I can't tell that. But
5:26
remember, this has hit her in the pocket
5:28
as much as the heart. Rosalind was the
5:31
brains. She had all the court's dealings
5:33
at her fingertips, and this is a blow.
5:36
I'm helping where I can, but Lou does
5:38
not like me. It makes things difficult.
5:43
Isaac's a loss, right?
5:46
Big time. He was the way Rosalind and
5:48
Lou kept tabs on Seattle and kept tabs
5:52
on their tabs in the gin joints at Cat
5:54
Houses. There's no doubt this will be a
5:57
setback, but the city has seen worse, as
6:00
has Lou. At least it didn't burn down
6:02
this time.
6:08
I'll be honest. I'm not sure what to do
6:10
without the boss.
6:11
I can understand that. This is a
6:14
difficult task for you alone.
6:16
What task?
6:17
To maintain the masquerade. This city
6:20
grows so fast, and I worry technology
6:23
will outstrip us all. It will not be
6:26
easy.
6:27
Oh, well, we'll help where we can. We
6:30
have to. You're protecting our
6:32
existence, Fabian. Uh,
6:35
my apologies. There's something I want
6:37
to check on. I'll I'll take my leave.
6:41
Is there a problem?
6:43
Not at all. I've just realized I have
6:45
something I want to ask of our esteemed
6:48
prince about the art of storytelling and
6:51
the invention of the mythic. Good night,
6:54
Sophia. Fabian, mind you take care of
6:56
her.
7:00
Do you mean take care of her or take
7:03
care of her? I wouldn't want to get it
7:05
wrong.
7:06
I'll see you both later.
7:13
We never really get the chance to talk,
7:15
do we?
7:18
I know this is a personal thing, but you
7:21
and Gideon, are you an item? Fabian,
7:25
it's just I never heard of two kindred
7:28
being like that. I thought that after
7:30
the embrace, everything changed.
7:33
I'd like to say that night was the last
7:35
time we both saw him, but that's not
7:38
true, is it?
7:55
There it was all along. And I knew it.
7:59
And I didn't know. I knew Gideon was the
8:03
gardener.
8:05
Oh, yes. That is clear, isn't it? We
8:08
never did find his body, but we did
8:10
close the case.
8:12
Lou called him a minor irritant, and
8:15
historical footnote. It was her. She did
8:19
this to him. I can't remember.
8:24
I found evidence. I I closed the case.
8:29
No, it's gone. Fire. Nothing left in the
8:32
old noggin.
8:41
It will come back.
8:43
That's what worries me.
8:54
Hate to tell you this sweetness, but
8:56
your beauty sleep has had zero effect.
