00:22 The scavenger hunt list? That's fun.
00:24 Chauncey says you're not allowed to play with us.
00:27 Oh.
00:27 Because you left him.
00:29 I need something happy.
00:31 Something happy?
00:32 Ugh.
00:34 I thought bugs freaked you out.
00:35 If I can finish my list, Chauncey will take me on a trip to the place he's from.

01:08 Does that seem like a game a good friend would want to play?
01:12 Maybe we shouldn't play together anymore, Chauncey.

01:47 When the connection is severed, the entity becomes enraged.
