222 [Before the Start of the Flood]

[He's a little beaten up, as you might be able to tell on the video.]

Disappointing news I'm afraid, my dears. Auditions will be a matter addressed after the port at the end of the month. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'll certainly feel more comfortable running lines with people after this place has gone back to normal.

I'm sure you're heartbroken, the lot of you.

The changes to the facilities don't especially agree with me, or Renate for that matter. [a bark in the background.] It leaves me feeling especially optimistic about what's to come.

[It takes him a second for his own words to catch up to him. Wait for it. Waaait for it.

You know what, he's just going to smile. Hi there, Marquis.]

Well I certainly hope the enclosure has been kinder to you than to me.

To be honest, it's depressing as hell. And usually a good fight doesn't put me in that down a mood. No, that place is depressing as hell.

We could certainly use a little more mirth.

Funny thing is, I think you're right. As pissy as I get about people goofin' off around me to irritate me, it makes goin' into a situation a lot easier.
