Let me know if you need help with the party, by the way.

Drawing up a list of requests as we speak. Why don't we have horses?

Why do you need a horse?

Authenticity. But also, I'm currently checking out Prescott.

We don't have horses because if a car gets a flat tire you don't have to take it out back and shoot it.

Jesus. Well, now I'm looking around wondering if it's someone's assigned job to take horses out back. The responder with the most inconsolable air.

Jem, probably.

That's not who you're going to want to ask if you want to borrow the horse as a party prop anyway.

Leaders have to take on the toughest jobs. Who would you ask?

Charcuterie board girl.

Is this real advice or are you setting me up? I'm going to do this anyway, I just want to know.

It's real advice. She seems like she'd participate in a stupid idea if it was funny enough.

I appreciate you. What do we think of a scary welcoming party?

No horses in the Lobby.

I think trying to execute an elaborate theme party in a week with limited resources is doomed to failure.

Less than a week, actually. But it's October.

It is October. What's scary about horses?

Anything can be scary if you get creative. And if most people are drunk by that point of the night. What are the party allotments?

It's an occasion, so wedding rules. One drink per guest per hour. Everyone will be plenty shitfaced.

Hi. It's Gideon.

I'll be around on Friday, and I'll be staying to see your show. A handful of us will. Mara asked if we could get you guys reliable power and hot showers. Might take a bit, but it's in the works.

Hello, Gideon. It's Edgar de Leon.

Very exciting news, assuming Mara lets us use the showers. But regardless, I have extra motivation to get this new show ready.

Oh, good. I wouldn't want to talk to an imposter/impersonator.

Mara seems accepting of you. What's the show?

Could you imagine if I was an imposter? There was a fellow back in Oregon claiming to be Leonardo DiCaprio.

~~Mara~~ That's a secret. But it's a true classic.

I'd be skeptical if I hadn't seen you in person. You're still not what I anticipated. [...] No offense meant.

Shakespeare?

What do you mean? Critical reviews are important.

More recent than that. We've been doing rehearsals, nailing it down.

You're unreal. You're a celebrity. You're Carnelian's secret weapon. He told me I should quit my job because he had this one in a million star.

[...] Crazy thing for him to say. It was a temporary contract.
