I was... running... where were you running? i'm... not sure... everything hurt so much... it was snowing... Where i s the last place you do remember? I bet you are in NYC it was a street...

Does Patrick Moctezuma sound familiar? its old... the kind you'd see... in a library... is the start bar blue, or is it grey? No... ive never heard the name before... grey... That's probably windows 98... when you say datacorps logo, what does the logo look like, is it just writing? it's red... with a shield... behind the text... god... my head... So what shall we do for you, Ein? i just... i just want to... get out... Ein, What year is it? so dark... and that man... that man is so scary... Is that guy still standing there? Maybe you should contact the NYPD Is there a web browser on the computer? i would have done that... if i could... but its quite obvious i cant... contact them...

That's ok, I don't think the file is on a Windows system anyway Can you use the run command on the start menu? yes... He must know, if he gave you a computer with IRC and IM on it, that you would be seeking help imho i think his head is meaningful but he also got to this room, i think that was no accident.. he was meant to seek us out try running "winipcfg" in the run command, and tell us what it says... it may help us find you. it says... windows cannot find winipcfg... wow. you have a screwy labtop type ipconfig /all it closed itself. cmd is a dead end what month is it ein?

Back to your head for a moment... you keep saying that it hurts... is that just a headache, or doyou have some sort of head injury? my head is just hurting... it feels like... it's going to collapse... on itself. do you have any bumps or tender spots on your head Like a hangover, maybe? wel macgyver i think you are gonna need to fashion a coke bottle-pencil hatchet and hack yout way out of there. i wish it was... a hangover. Baucis? I meant more like hangover type pain? a hatchet...? lets get real... its plastic... you said that the pencil was broken... what material is the pencil made out of? wood i bet graphite... they stopped using lead decades ago... is it a mechanical pencil, or is it a wooden one? is it yellow? #2... they never used real lead in pencils What have you been sleeping on?

Rickety and metal, I think you may be able to work with that but the man... Spring to pick the lock? Has the man spoken to you at all? no... all he's done... is stand outside the cell... and breath... he sounds to worked... sounds to worked? what do you mean? he... sounds like... he's hyperventilating... overworked? perhaps he will pass out focusing on the immediate issue at hand... how much battery life does the laptop have left in it? it's blinking... yellow... lindenmann, do you know where yuu are by any chance? ...i... people these... days... what about people these days einy Ein, what sort of work do you do?

Any contact information? is merrlos brunette? merrlos... we got into... an argument... when was this ein? the arguement Yes, but I'm sure she wouldn't want this for you. Can we ring her up? yes, merrlos is a brunette... a year... ago... what happened ein? yall broke it off? it would be in my cellphone sim card... does this mean anything to you: *SatisFIED?* no... fie and pshaw mata, your speaking a different language to me... do you know where your cell phone would be? or a number so we can try to locate it? mata i apologise is from the UK what was the cells number? if i put this all in english it would swamp the room even further it was in my hoodie... i feel so naked right... i hoped a key word may promt you into remembering something important So if we call that number, perhaps someone will answer no worries... i dont know where my phone is... why not? Yes, but you must know the number? can you give us any phone number you remember? hes in a cage, just woke up... i dont see how he can remember much It's worth a shot... he obviously needs any help we can give him. it was... 1718... i can't... remember the rest... thats a NY area code 718 718 - New York City Metro Area, New York (Queens, Staten Island, The Bronx, and Brooklyn damn there go all my limetree's they were 212 ein, has your captor ever done anything unusual before today? 212... thats... a manhattan area code. besides kidnapping you well, i mean maybe he is playing games with him mata prisoners usually dont get labtops were you given the laptop, or was it found? no its are for a prisoner to get a labtop 1718 sounds more like an address captor... well if he lived in manhattan, if he dialed out, it would be 1-718-the rest of the number besides the man outside the cell... i've seen noone... WW is right. how close is he to the cell, out of interest? thanks ein glad to see someone can recognize genius a few years back... dialing those four numbers was made necessary to complete... the call.. is the man outside right now....if so, how does he not know about the computer without being instumental in your getting it he's a few feet away... ahhhh...i guess that answers that... do you know why you would be held captive? did you ask him for help? is there anything extraordinary about yourself, or something you know or have done? did you ever do anything before being kidnapped that would cause someone to want to kidnap you (for any purpose (to help them or keep you out of their way?)) Ein, Hhave you tried to launch Trillian on the laptop? If not do so please. i'm not sure... i grazed him with my fingertips before... he just stood there. nothing... standing with his back to me... can he hear you? im trying to get a grasp of your situation i've moaned and groaned for the past hour... nothing out of him. but such a harsh breathing... pattern... he has... have you tried talking directly to him? ask him something....... of course... call him the prophet or provider or oracle see if that registers anything the prophet... the provider...?? Ein, Launch Trillian. It may have a default account that auto logs in. You may see a contact list. Maybe one of them will know something. just do it please he made the same noise he always does. yes...ask him if he is the prophet/provider/oracle. this could give us some needed info... ive tried... trillian also closes in on itself. bummer ive never experienced this kind of thing... before... dammit... so he doesn't move when you touch him? can you feel on him for some keys? can you punch him in the crotch? i could only graze him with my fingertips... his back is facing me... if this guy is a murdere, maybe a crotch punch isnt advised what about your pencil can you poke him? i dont think my buddy ein's situation will get any worse than it is uh... best to see if his captor will say or do something again... nothing out of him... Can you try a roundhouse kick? ... someone hasn't been listening... tut, tut i know this might sound drastic, but have you tried relieving yourself on him? ask the man for somethin....such as a glass of water or the use of a bathroom.... LOL! i think we may be barking up the wrong tree here Ein, what about your job? Where do you work? not really enough fluids in me to do so, ww. i feel so... drained... i think maybe we could do with knowing a little more about datcorps.... ask him why he killed merrlos merrlos is... dead? hello i dont think he said he killed merrlos no we dont even know her ein can you remember what she was wearing last time you saw her? merrlos... its been a year... A brunette was found hanging from a street post, I am looking to get a reaction. ah try to get out of a barred room is harder then it looks. ask him to let you out to use the restroom or something......improvise. Are you hungry, Ein? Light still blinking yellow, ein? It's been red for a few minutes... so, your time is short. Ask for food and water. Surely he does not mean for you to starve to death in there. If that were the case, you'd already be dead i feel hungry... yes... * [TheProvider] has joined #TheRoom Ask for food and water, then pay very close attention to any sounds, how far he walks, doors opening, voices, etc <[TheProvider]> Yes, surely, that is not the case. Hell Provider * [TheProvider] is now known as TheProvider i mean hello Hello Provider. Do you have Ein? Why, of course. Who...? Perhaps you will tell us why you have him? He's a... puppet, so to speak. A puppet...? Part of a show, then? what the fuck do you mean...? are you one and the same as the prophet, etc? What do I mean? Dear boy, sit down and shut up. Play your role, you've already been marked. You've already been stamped one of the sacraments. What value is Ein to you? marked? who has been marked a sacrament? Ein? me... sacrament? what the fuck do you mean? Ein, I said quiet yourself. ...my head... Yes, your head. Now roll over and keep to yourself. Why did you send Ein here? He has been chosen. ein, do as he says.. it may be your only way of staying alive ...As one of the 13 sacrament. What did you do to his head? ...
