[13] – Video Post

I’m out of zero, since the warden administration decided to get their act together. [Eye roll, Crane’s obviously not impressed with the time he spent down there.]

Unsurprisingly, nothing has changed. Good job though, with getting rid of the fear gas mess so far. The dining hall is looking quite pleasant. You could almost eat your lunch there without thinking about someone getting murdered where your chair is. [Crane just smiles at the camera for a long moment, before flicking it off.]

[Private – Irene Adler]

I don’t suppose you know anything about this? [Crane holds up a wad of paper which appears to be a file on Irene, with a kiss in lipstick on the top. He’s put it in a plastic sleeve to avoid touching the icky lady germs.]

[Private – Ms Rose]

I’m out of zero, finally, but you’re not in the infirmary. Where are you?

Just like every other self-righteous criminal. 'Oh, it's not me that's at fault, it's society. I'm just a victim, really.' You made people suffer. You're at fault, stop blaming others.

Yes, because your accusations certainly help the situation. God forbid, things be a little more grey then your simplistic black and white worldview.

And your self-absolution by blaming everyone else is certainly making things better. Gods forbid you accept responsibility for your own stupid, disproportionate attempts at revenge.

Why, you seem to have a great deal of anger. Were you in the dining hall at the time?

No, I wasn't.

Are you quite sure? Was one of your friends, perhaps, in there at the time?

No, this isn't personal.

I just don't approve of people who spread chaos. Whether I'm involved or not.

It seems to me like you're far too focused on being in other peoples business. If you weren't effected and neither were your friends, then it is not your concern.

Or, perhaps, I've got a little less self centred idea of what's important. I happen to think order and nobody dying is important.

I don't give a damn about any of the individuals involved on an individual level. But I give a damn about order and the people in general.

Ever understood that concept?

Funny, I was under the impression that you were an inmate. Are you trying to throw some of the wardens own propaganda back at them to increase your chances of graduation?

Or, not all inmates are the same.

I've always believed that. I just went about the wrong methods in making it happen and in defining who was a threat and who wasn't. But I've always believed in order and keeping the people safe. It's not propaganda, I've believed that since the day I was made a watchman.

How very inspiring. Next time someone is needed to make a speech, I'll be sure to recommend you.

Still, that type of talk makes me curious as to what you were before coming here. Keeping the people safe makes you sound like some kind of police officer, or perhaps a soldier.

Captain of the City Watch, thank you.

Of what city? That seems to be the most important factor.

Ankh-Morpork, a city state, and one of the greatest states on the Disc.

Never heard of any of those. Still, stranger things happen around here.

Not many people have. The Barge seems to have a quota of people from my world. Two at a time.

So, currently, Edward d'Eath can account for my planet's existance.

There may be some logic to your theory. Only the Joker and myself have any real insight into the reality of this place. They may be performing tests in pairs.

Going... back to that again? Really?

Maybe. It's not any of your business.

Enjoy your little theory.

You think that you come from a flat world. Enjoy your little theory.

That's not theory. It's scientific fact.

Now, a Roundworld, that's ridiculous. And yet, I accept that you know your own world well enough.

I am not going to have this debate. It is too ridiculous to seriously try and prove that the world is round.

For you, and your world, yes. For me and mine, it's too ridiculous to seriously try and prove it's flat.
