Wow sounds like you had a great time on your way back to Santa Monica.
Im so glad its party season coming up, I need an excuse for a good party.
I have emailed Peeps with your message as you asked, so fingers crossed you two can set something up real soon.

I didnt realize you knew french?
I took a few years of french in high school back home in Scotland, Im a bit rusty but its nice to see it being used again.

How are your nerves lately?
Ive noticed youve taken to smoking a lot, i hadnt noticed that in your correspndance before?
Im sure its a great way to relax though.
I hear its almost as good as a nice big bar of chocolate.
Chocolate seems to be my vice.

I hope you make it back to Santa Monica safely, I have been worried about you this weekend.
Take care dear friend.

Sallyyyyy

sallyyyyy, quoi de neuf? it has been quite a ride back santa monica! thanks for talking to peeps for me. be sure to tell him i can come to him. just give me the place and time. yeah, you know, i took french in high school too but i never used it. suddenly it pops into my head all the time. the smoking started on the same day that the french started popping into my head. i used to smoke and then i quit a few years ago but i'm back to smoking like a mad dog! i don't know why but i can't seem to get enough of it right now. je m'en fous!
betty


Now the 2 lines in french, the first one says "what is nine?" and the second one is "I am insane".

Interesting huh?

sallyyyyy, mon ami right back at vous! ha! thanks for helping me with peeps. i really don't get his thing with not contacting me directly. i mean excusez-moi but i have known him for a much longer time than you new sammeeeees. whatever. i'll hook up with him soon.

i have to tell you, sallyyyyy, that i haven't felt myself since my time in that red room. i get these weird flashes at night and i wake up sweating and then i get the most uncontrollable urge to smoke. it seems at times i'm not in control of my own head. i woke up with smoking cough this morning and thought i should not smoke for a couple days but i can't stop. and barney, i can't even let him into my mind for more than like five minutes. the minute i think about him my mind begins to race and i start wondering where could peeps be (to the point of almost manic obsessing) and now i avoid thinking about barney at all. i feel like if i could find peeps, my mind might calm down. i feel like i might be losing my mind or something. Sad MERDE! i don't know what to do. i feel so very alone these days. its like i'm lost and i thought it would help to anchor me to see nedd ludd but he's avoiding me. no answer to five emails. MERDE!

sorry to dump on you. i have no one to talk to about this. you know everything that's been going on with me. do you think i'm losing it, sallyyyyy? please be a friend and be honest. thanks.
betty



So....before i reply, what do you think guys?
Should I go out on a limb and suggest she stop smoking and that she may have been compromised by Dr Abbott?

I think you should tell her we think she was brainwashed. She needs help but I don't know who can help her. She's a danger to everyone. Poor Betty.

 		Yes I thought so too....so this is what I wrote her.

Quote:

My dearest friend Betty.

I can see from your writing how conflicting this has all been for you lately, and what you need now more than anything are friends.
You have asked me to be honest with you, and I will be.
I dont think you are going crazy in the slightest, but I do think there may be some things that are affecting the way you think lately.

I think a lot of it has to do with the smoking.

I hope you feel you can trust me betty, if there is anything I can do to prove that trust to you please let me know, in return I want you to do something for me.

Just as a small experiment to see if we can get you feeling better.

Those cigarettes you have been smoking.
Get rid of them, flush them down the toilet, or the garbage disposal, where ever you can put them to destroy them.

please dont smoke anymore.

Specifically any cigarettes given to you by someone else.

Its going to be tough, I know you feel you need them, but you are such a strong woman Betty I know you can do it, and I will be here all the way.
If you need me, or feel you cant cope with not having a cigarette, you can message me I am never far from a computer and am always checking my messages.

Just try it overnight,..get rid of the cigarettes, have a hot bath, and an early night, and see how you feel in the morning, take it an hour at a time.

I think you may have had something done to you while you were in Dr Abbotts custody, and they are using these cigarettes to control you.

I hope you understand and are willing to test this theory out.

Im suggesting this to do anything I can to help you betty.

your loving friend
Sallyyyyy

 		Telling Betty the Truth
I was thinking about this while driving to work today (yeah, I know, this ARG has taken over my thinking IRL).

I agree with telling her our suspicions.
But!
Even if she agrees with us, and acts "cured".....we can't completely trust her to have direct contact with any WR or Peeps - there is too much risk of compromised until after we have all 5 disc pieces in Sammeeeee hands.
I'll offer the same advice if she has also sent me an email today.

So yeah even if we "cure" her we cant tell her anything.

"Good Morning Betty, its great to hear from you.
I am so sorry that you had that strange black-out last night, it sure does sound like you were digging around for something though.

I am so proud of you for not smoking, please please stick with this.
When you walked by Peets coffee did you stop to buy anything?

Keep up the good work betty.
As always I am here for you if you need me.

<hugz>
Sallyyyyy

 		Keen eye Enaxor, I had my hubby email the message to me so didnt pay quite as close attention As I normally do, but I did thinkt hat her repetition of the places was very strange.

Now, is she wanting to meet peeps?
Or is she wanting to meet one of us?

Hello Betty.

I don't know if you remember me. I'm Tess, a fellow sammeeeee. We wrote to each other some time ago.

Peeps sent me a note today, telling me that he had e-mailed you but not recieved any reply. He wondered if we (the sammeeeees) had any contact with you at the moment and if you were alright. He seemed rather worried.

Are you alright? Is there any reason why you wouldn't answer him (or didn't you know about the e-mail)?

Mvh,
Tess


And her reply

Quote:
tess, yes i remember you! wow! great to hear from you again! peeps is writing to me? you are bringing me the news i've been waiting for! i'm sure that now

MERDE! my mind is racing again, tess! oh no! i'm getting those weird flashes! i'm seeing more places along main street! my mind is flickering! i see o'brien's then novel cafe then betsy & tracy then ocean park library then ashland & hill then rudy's then dhaba's then wildflour pizza then angel city books and finally l k market! what is happening? i will try to get to my email again if i can remember where it is. please tell peeps we must see each other soon! he's my only way out of this hell!

 		As we discussed last night, should we ever struggle with a decision, our sammeeeee friends will always guide us in the right direction.

Hello Sallyyyyy, I think we should talk to Jean Moulin about Betty's condition. He knows best about what they do to people in room 505. Tell Jean what you have told me. Thank you for taking such good care of our Sammeeeee friend named Betty. Good night and sleep well, Sallyyyyy.
Peeps



So to the one and only Jean Moulin it is with me....

Onboard wal? What am I missing?

It looks like "on boardwalk" (adding the "k" from "l k market"). Presumably this goes with "please meet me" to form "please meet me on boardwalk". Maybe a time or date will come next?
