I'm audio booking this so no page numbers, just hour and minutes.
part 2 Escapee 2:02
chapter 1 in memoriam
Marie Quinn is doing a thing with Ollie Morgan.
After a while at the Antimemetics Division you are given the drugs and do their thing and they can see the giant stone spire. Going up into the giant stone spire is part of initiation. Did I mention that Marie Quinn has a mimetic friend that helps her? It can't come with them. Somehow the walk up the stone spire stops them from going up. There's a part in the spire where there's equipment. Computer, generator, etc.
This thing is a memorial. Morgan asks how many memetics wars there have been. Morgan is an Egyptologist.
Marie tells Morgan that whoever built this memorial was built by an ancient advanced civiliation. That whole civilization is completely gone AND there's enough antimemetic stuff about it that normal people just can't see it.
Quinn only knows about 1 antimemetics war. Quinn tells Morgan that there's a U-4929B that isn't dangerous anymore but they think it was active during Egyptian times. Nobody knows hyroglyphs anymore so the idea can't possibly be that infections so no big worry. But Morgan knows hyroglyphs and then a giant monster made of spiders starts to fly at them out of the sky. Also there's a skinny man with shaggy hair that's been shot. We know this is the same monster Quinn ran into at the lake. But Quinn doesn't. Long story short, it kills Morgan and Quinn doses herself with amnesia juice so she forgets about the monster and thus it forgets about her.
Chapter 2: Where have you been all my life
Quinn lives way out in the forest. She doesn't live anywhere near a big city. The logical thing to do would be find a place away from the headquarters in the direction of a big city. But she did the opposite. Someone has broken into her house. She's gonna investigate while backup comes. But whatever she's gonna do she figures it'll be over before said backup arrives.
There's a man coming up the stairs and Quinn gets the jump on him. It's her husband. She's forgotten her husband. His name is Adam.
Adam used to be in antimemetics. He was there when Quinn domesticated her imaginary friend. There's a flashback to another mission that they were on together where they narrowly escape from being "eaten" by a glob monster. It eats Adam's shoe as they climb to safety.
hour 3
No, this isn't a mission. Not for Adam, he was an innocent bystander. Marie tells him about the organization. Bestest part is that in this flashback she tells him that they've been doing this for 200 years. Something we know that she doesn't know anymore. Also that she's not with the FBI and even if she was, what would the FBI doing in England. Marie starts complaining about how she didn't like the FBI tv show. The years of will that won't they is ridiculous. In the real world, you know if you want someone or not kinda right away. She knows she wants him.
Back to the modern day. Adam continues to be kept in jail. I think he thinks it's cause the organization doesn't trust him. I think the organization is total happy with Adam and it's Marie that doesn't trust him. When she finally comes, he goes to hug him, but she shuts that shit down HARD. She doesn't know him at all. But he hasn't forgotten about her. It's hella sad.
And like Onyx said in the musical masterpiece Slam "but wait it gets worse" She's gonna wipe his memory and relocate him and also wipe everyone's memory of him. It'll be like he never existed.
Chapter 3: 3:37 case colorless green
Marie "finds" a secret lab that is setup specifically to combat the thing that killed morgan and the old man. The idea is that you only work on your theories about the thing while in that room and then you leave all your evidence there and then you purge your memory so you don't remember it so it doesn't come kill you. There's old video that she left herself. She's so worried about Adam back then. Cause the two of them just sorta clicked, which indicates to her they had similar minds and the monster if it got to her would get to Adam through her due to said similarity. There's a bit of a history of the "war" they had with this monster. The war is pretty much over. There used to be dozens, maybe hundres of antimememtic organizations around the world. Now there's just this one and the headquarters we know isn't even the real headquarters. That got destroyed and the one they're in now that seems way too big is I guess the backup headquarters and that's only got 90 people. The war is over, the enemy is just moping up their remains.
But there is a giant engineering lab deep below. Her hope is someone built a weapon to fight the monster there.
Lee is ther and he is infected by the monster. Marie runs away.
