**Marco:** *[hears Indian sounds of ritual]* "Hello, is anyone here?"

**William:** "Hi?"

**Marco:** "Oh, hi. How are ya? Are you William?"

**William:** "No, I say 'hi, how are ya?' You say, I'm doing..."

**Marco:** "Well, fine. Good. What are you doing here?"

**William:** (*Makes hand gestures which relate to what he tells Marco*) "No, bruh. What are *you* doing in here? You know, I was the original inhabitant of this land. We had a pristine camp, owned by the great tribe of Kiwipacaca, where every tribe rejoiced with glee and comfort. The most majestic and elegant camp you can imagine. That is, until we got kicked out of there by some gosh damn fracking crackers!"

**Marco:** "Oh, crackers. Sure, I'm not one of those guys. Anyway, do you have any answers about why AI kidnapped my friends? Like, before he did that, my algorithm clone was so nice to us and everything-"

**William:** *(rubs salt on the campfire)* "Well yes, but first... I must know the question."

**Marco:** "Okay, the question is, why do I have to suffer? See the world around you, it's terrible now. Why?"

**William:** "I brought this for ya. Enter through the bag of marbles. Look at them. What do you see?"

**Marco:** "I see nothing, sir. Nothing to make me surprised."

**William:** "Look further. Further. More. There, you're cool now."

**Marco:** "Ooh, what's this? Seems like a dark place in here."

**???:** "Okay, are we ready to tackle him up?"

**???:** "Dude, stop. We're not gonna kill him! That's against the rules!"

**???:** "Crack his abs! Crack his abs! Come on!

**William:** "Shh! Be quiet!"

**???:** "Hey you, can you hear me? Bet you're not hearing me now!"

**William:** "Shut up! First thing we'll do is to send him off to the river. To throw him off the cliff!"

**???:** "What?! We can't do that. We're no better than the God!"

**William:** "Agh. He's right. C'mon, let's get the lad out."

**Marco:** "Ah! Who are you, guys?"

**Alexis:** "We're the Non-Punishables, motherclucker."

**Marco:** "Hey, I'm not a motherclucker."

**Andy:** "We never get chastised. Never."

**William:** "We are the Immortal Boys."

**Marco:** "Hmm hm. Really?"

**William:** "Nah, we're actually the Dropout Boys. Except him, he just graduated."

**Andy:** "Hi, I'm Andy."

**Marco:** "Oh, I know you. But, who's the other guy?"

**William:** "He's Alexis, my always had been partner-in-crime."

**Alexis:** "They call me Mr. Alexis. Like, I can whoop all those crackers with one fist bump. Those cracking cracker-ass crackers." *(crushes a stack of literal saltine crackers with his hand)* "See?"

**Marco:** "Okay, where do you two come from?"

**Alexis:** "You don't wanna cracking know."

**Marco:** "Dude, I only asked where do you two come from. Geez, what's the big deal?"

*(The Dropout Boys gather up for a plan by themselves)*

**Alexis:** "What are we gonna do with him? Shove him down our throats?"

**William:** "Don't be crazy! Of course not. We gotta find a way to do this."

**Andy:** "Think about it, and come to me later."

**William:** "Good spit." *(turns back to Marco)* "So, you want to know about the Great Beyond or what?"

**Marco:** "What's the Great Beyond?"
