Video Revachol, 24h: "*Something?* Listen, I can't help you." He sounds annoyed now. "If you need further assistance you can visit us on the corner of Voyager and Main. Are we done?"
34
Empathy: He thinks you're pulling a prank on him.
2->34

You: "My name is Raphaël Ambrosius Costeau. Do you have anything on my name?"
59
Video Revachol, 24h: "Raphaël *what*? Listen, I can't help you over the phone." He sounds annoyed now. "If you need further assistance you can visit us on the corner of Voyager and Main. Are we done?"

You: I might try this again later.
69
Interfacing: Sure, why not. Muscle memory is a tricky thing.
5->69
6
Physical Instrument: Nothing tricky about that. You just *do*, *fail*, *repeat* until it works. All it takes is motivation and practice.

You: Insert 10 cents.

Punch Clock/Payphone: The machine swallows your coin and seems to be waiting for your next move.
9->60
10
You: "Oh, okay. Thanks."
11
Video Revachol, 24h: "If you can, return it to us on the corner of Voyager and Main."
10->11
82
Shivers: On the corner of Voyager and Main a large neon sign hangs on the side of a building: "Video Revachol, 24h." It's raining and there is almost no traffic on the street. A woman's footprints in the mud lead away from the front door.

Shivers: Tiny heels, tip-toeing down the road. Beautiful steps, light-footed, with a lifetime ahead of them. You look up and the air seems to grow darker.
13->27
79
Video Revachol, 24h: The call is terminated by the other party. You're left with the discomforting sound of the disconnect tone.
14->79

Punch Clock/Payphone: An imposing combination of a punch-clock and a payphone is looking down at you from the wall. A note on the side says: "Tokens unavailable due to strike. Use change."
18->55
19
Video Revachol, 24h: "No."
19->8
20
Punch Clock/Payphone: The already familiar cold touch of plastic welcomes you as you pick up the handset.

You: "Kim, I feel sad about Video Revachol 24h."
21->80
22
Video Revachol, 24h: "Here we are! You haven't rented anything in five years, but you still have a copy of *Blue Ocean Hell* from November '46. Wooh, not a fun film, that one."
22->10
70
You: "What kind of a film is that?"
22->70
23
Interfacing: Undoubtedly, no.
23->5
24
Punch Clock/Payphone: The payphone hangs mutely on the wall. There isn't much more to do here.
24->28
25
Perception (Hearing): The voice of a youngster on the other end sounds as enthusiastic as that of a man walking towards the gallows.
73
You: "What is this place?"
25->73
26
Kim Kitsuragi: "That's enough for you today," the lieutenant says quietly. "Let's conclude this call."
26->15
26->65
71
Inland Empire: Suddenly you feel like you don't want to hear about video rentals anymore. You don't want to hear about *any of it*. It was all shit. It's over.
27->71
28->9

You: Let your muscle memory dial a random number.
28->40
72
You: [Leave.]

You: "Can't we do it without my last name? I can't really remember it."
75
Video Revachol, 24h: "Listen, man, I can't help you without your surname." He sounds annoyed now. "If you need further assistance you can visit us on the corner of Voyager and Main. Are we done?"

Interfacing: Your fingers run over the dial pad. 005... that's the dialling code for Revachol -- 49-52... and a moment of hesitation before entering the final numbers: 993.
37->63
57
Interfacing: It's unclear whether you actually have muscle memory. Right now your finger is just drawing vaguely occult patterns in the air.
