YARD CUNO SCENE - 1094

G 0 START 1 input 0->1 57 Cuno: "Right, pig, this is where Cuno plays with his little wooden choo-choo. Fuck do you want with it?" 1->57 62 Cuno: "Yeah, the Kingdom of Cuno, the fuck do you want with it?" 1->62 2 Cuno: The boy shakes his head. "You need these pants. But you ain't gonna get these pants, pig!" 163 Cunoesse: "That's what the f****t gets for trying to split us up, Cuno! NO FUCKING PANTS!" 2->163 3 Physical Instrument: Coach Physical Instrument endorses these pants. They are tartan-ready. 197 Conceptualization: They will also make you into an idiot. 3->197 4 Savoir Faire: These could drastically improve your chances of survival in the urban wilderness. 4->3 5 You: "Cuno, there's a stack of eternite back there..." (Point to the shack.) 46 Cuno: "That's just some shit roofing-gimps left behind. Lazy dinks." 5->46 6 Cuno: "Yeah, that's what Cuno said. She couldn't handle the heat, so she took off. Cuno can take it." He fills his lungs with the rancid air. His eyes get a little watery. "Shit's *nothing* to Cuno." 138 Jump to: [Untitled hub] 6->138 7 Drama: Of course, sire. Better not anger the Cuno with this silliness. We regret bringing it up. A thousand years of misfortune upon us for bringing it up! 178 Jump to: [skeenehub] 7->178 8 Cuno: "Pig... if Cuno was hiding something, it would be hidden," he says with exaggerated confidence. 96 Drama: But it is not hidden, is it, sire? You picked up on it. You should examine the pile of roofing material again. 8->96 9 Cuno: "Cuno doesn't know who lives there. And if he did, he wouldn't squeal. But if you find out, maybe you can..." 56 Logic: ...tell the Cuno who it was? He's curious. He likes putting 2 and 2 together here. 9->56 11 Cuno: "All right, piggo!" His face lights up. "Shit's rolling." 51 Cunoesse: "Don't do business with the pig, Cuno! He's gonna steal all your money, Cuno!" 11->51 12 Cuno: "As you can see..." Cuno nods towards the fence. "Cuno and C don't trust you. Can't do business without trust." 126 Empathy: There's more to his distrust than being a *pig*. He feels threatened by something obscure in you. What that is, however, remains a puzzle for now. 12->126 13 Perception (Sight): You'd have to be blind not to notice the giant white letters "F-A-L-N" running down his trouser leg. 198 falnpantsandshit 13->198 14 Kim Kitsuragi: Variable["yard.cuno_drama_hidding_something"] 15 Variable["yard.cuno_drama_hidding_something"] 14->15 16 !(Variable["yard.cuno_drama_hidding_something"]) 14->16 108 You: "Are you hiding something?" 15->108 109 You: Shit 'some gimps' left behind. Sounds legitimate. Let's move on. 15->109 74 Logic: Was there something here you were supposed to pick up on? As soon as it crosses your mind, the thought is gone... 16->74 17 Jump to: [skeenehub] 79 skeenehub 17->79 18 You: "Not just that. I also think the hypothethical *mug fucker* lives in that apartment there." (Point to Gary's apartment.) 182 Kim Kitsuragi: Variable["yard.cuno_lives_in_apartment_route"]  and  IsKimHere() 18->182 19 Cunoesse: "Stop turning into a pig, Cuno! They're trying to get you hooked on the snitching!" She lets out a hiss, even meaner than before. "Get away from my Cuno, f****ts!" 20 Cuno: "Yeah!" Cuno jumps back. "Get your bacon shit away! Cuno doesn't like to be seen with the popo. Get your shit done and out of Cuno's face!" 19->20 28 Jump to: [skeenehub] 20->28 21 Cuno: "Yeah, whatever. Cuno doesn't give a shit." He spits over his shoulder, then looks back up at you. 32 Jump to: [CUNO MAIN HUB] 21->32 22 Cuno: "No, it's not fucking Cuno's, it's ancient -- look at it." 58 Cunoesse: An evil squeak comes from behind the fence. "He thinks you're fucking four, Cuno! He says you climb the ladder up to your *magic tree house*!" 22->58 23 Kim Kitsuragi: IsKimHere() 24 IsKimHere() 23->24 25 !(IsKimHere()) 23->25 124 Kim Kitsuragi: You can't help but notice a little approving nod the lieutenant makes. He agrees. 24->124 48 Cuno: "What do you want Cuno to do about it? Cuno's fucking twelve!" 25->48 26 fixit_container 38 You: "Someone might have stashed something in there. Maybe there's even a lead..." "Perps might have stashed something more in that container." "Found something of mine in there. Maybe perps stashed something in there too. Might even be a solid lead." 26->38 102 You: "Okay, enough about this, Cuno. I've got other matters to address." 26->102 27 Cuno: "The fuck? A *mug* in the trash? Is this about the fucking clothes again?" 41 You: "Yes. Does this adequate depiction of a South-Samaran man have anything to do with it?" 27->41 147 You: "Yes, does this quaint, better-not-taken-out-of-its-historical-context mug have anything to do with it?" 27->147 159 You: "Yes. Does this racist mug have anything to do with it?" 27->159 175 You: "Actually, talking about this makes me uncomfortable. Let's back up a notch." 27->175 28->79 29 Rhetoric: Yeah, her. 92 Kim Kitsuragi: Variable["yard.cuno_rhet_gardener_it_was_her"] 29->92 30 Drama: He's hiding something. 30->14 31 Untitled hub (05) 31->18 123 You: "That's exactly what I'm saying, Cuno. Someone has tampered with the crime scene, cleaned some of it up." 31->123 6030438 JUMP OUT to YARD / CUNO 32->6030438 33 You: "Look, it's basic police work. If there's a trash container on the crime scene you have to investigate it." "Look, it's basic police work. If there's a trash container on the crime scene you have to investigate it thoroughly. I may have missed something when I checked it before." 33->23 34 Cuno: "Believe it, you *need* this shit..." He unzips his jacket to give you a quick peek at the plastic-wrapped pants. They are graphite-black and look brand new. 34->4 35 Empathy: Cuno is actually a *little* interested. 172 Jump to: [skeenehub] 35->172 36 Inland Empire: We are *way* beyond normal already. We are in the STAR CHAMBER. 110 Kim Kitsuragi: IsKimHere() 36->110 37 Encyclopedia: *Kipt* is a pejorative term used to describe people of South Semenese or Areopagite descent. It used to be a common first name among the Areopagites of Iilmaraa -- not so much anymore. 105 Untitled hub 37->105 39 Cuno: "Yes, yes, absolutely, absolutely... Why the fuck are you telling this shit to Cuno?!" 38->39 39->172 40 fix_container 40->102 173 You: "I got a very strong *hunch* there's something of importance in it. Something I must find." "I got a very strong *hunch* there's something of importance in it. Something I am yet to find." 40->173 135 Cuno: "Yeah, Cuno sees where this is going. Cuno's got that fast-brain," he whispers excitedly. "You saying you pigs are after the mug fucker -- coz he's the clothes fucker..." 41->135 42 You: "I need to know. It could be a lead in the investigation. Someone may have tampered with the murder scene." 52 Cuno: "Listen! Listen!" He stops you. "Cuno doesn't care about this small-time shit. Just listen -- Cuno saw what you did there. Dumpster diving. Sad shit." 42->52 43 Kim Kitsuragi: Variable["yard.cuno_logic_greenhouse"] 44 Variable["yard.cuno_logic_greenhouse"] 43->44 45 !(Variable["yard.cuno_logic_greenhouse"]) 43->45 106 Encyclopedia: Fish is sometimes used to fertilize the soil a few weeks before planting something.

Fuck are you talking about?!" He loses his cool for a moment and starts yelling. "Ask me a normal question, pig!" 47->53 149 Jump to: [skeenehub] 48->149 49 Electrochemistry: Or alcohol, if you don't want to do drugs. Alcohol is just as rewarding, but it isn't a drug. This has been going on for quite a while, hasn't it? You've been thinking about drugs and alcohol for a long time now. Juicy drugs, tasty alcohol... 59 Electrochemistry: Seems kinda boring now, going back to... What was this about? Some yard? Yards aren't interesting. Only drugs are interesting. Drugs and alcohol. You feel sad now, but what can you do. Life has to go on. With a heavy sigh, you say... 49->59 50 Jump to: [falnpantsandshit] 50->198 116 Kim Kitsuragi: Variable["yard.cuno_lets_talk_succeded_whitecheck"] 51->116 115 Cuno: "Cuno could hook you up with some sweet rags. Shit like Cuno's wearing." He points to his pants. "Your size, good price, 500 reál." 52->115 150 Cunoesse: "They're trying to make you feel stupid, Cuno!" 53->150 54 You: Better not to bother the lieutenant with my Star Chamber. He wouldn't understand. 134 Cuno: "Are you having a seizure in Cuno's yard now?" He sounds agitated. 54->134 55 Jump to: [strange_feels] 75 strange_feels 55->75 56->19 57->79 160 Cuno: "Get the fuck out of here, pig! Cuno doesn't have a magic tree house!" 58->160 130 Jump to: [skeenehub] 59->130 60 Kim Kitsuragi: The lieutenant remains silent, but his expression couldn't say *I told you so* any louder. 60->50 61 Cuno: "Yeah, back out of this shit with Cuno." 167 Cunoesse: "Back out and take your fat ass with you." 61->167 62->79 63 Cuno: "Look at that fucking shit?" he screeches. "You tryin'a get Cuno killed?" 72 You: "So you would say that the ladder is... unclimbable?" 63->72 64 Cuno: "The fuck does this have to do with the Cuno? Cuno doesn't give a shit who she is." 170 Electrochemistry: You were expecting relaying this information to him to be more rewarding, right? Telling him you found out she isn't a gardener. You know what you should do, if you want to get rewarded? Drugs. Drugs are more rewarding than work. 64->170 65 Jump to: [skeenehub] 65->79 66 Kim Kitsuragi: Variable["yard.cuno_lives_in_apartment_route"] 67 Variable["yard.cuno_lives_in_apartment_route"] 66->67 68 !(Variable["yard.cuno_lives_in_apartment_route"]) 66->68 67->9 84 Cuno: "Cuno doesn't know who put that shit in there.

Cuno means the gardener, alright?" 73->138 74->178 75->47 76 You: "So you say, but I saw *past the veil*." 75->76 97 You: Don't I have a single normal thing to say? 75->97 201 You: "Yes, yes... some shit gimps left behind.

For now, let's talk about something else." 79->152 153 You: "That ladder yours?" 79->153 165 You: "The dead man's clothes were in the trash container." (Point to the container.)

Cuno was trying to help you. But you're too fat for FALN anyway, pig." 81->85 82 You: "Wait -- I asked you what happened to *his* clothes. You must have seen them lying around?" 158 Cuno: "Look, Cuno ain't seen shit lying around, 'cept for that f****t up there." He points to the cadaver. "Now you want performance gear or not, grandpa?"

Don't climb it, Cuno!" 88->121 89 You: "Wait, what did you mean by *kipt*?" 89->73 90 You: "The gardener? She's actually not a gardener. Turns out she's a union fixer." 90->64 91 Cuno: "Look, Cuno doesn't explain shit -- Cuno just *says* shit."

What kind of *gardening* is done in March? 93->177 94->200 95 You: Not important right now. (Refuse task.) 129 Cuno: "The fuck are you staring at with your mouth open?

He thinks for a moment. "Someone's going to the beatdown-basement, huh? Mug-guy gonna get tied to the radiator." He nods in approval. 123->136 124->149 125->102 125->173 126->77 127 You: "Right.

He's already come up with an interrogation technique too. 136->141 137->33 137->102 138->105 162 Logic: Yes, it seems suspicious.
