Welcome to Dreamworld - EPISODE 2

Episode 2 on YouTube

The collapse of the Dreamworld Entertainment facility begins.

## Summary

The video begins with a clip from the YouTube creator Rain. They read an E-mail on their phone from Dreamworld Entertainment themselves, in which they ask Rain to inform the audience that all footage is fictional in order to prevent misconceptions of their brand. The E-mail accuses them of hacking company computers and stealing confiscated recordings from their records, to which Rain becomes visibly shaken. The email states that the recordings made by Wiatt Nicholson are to be kept private and the facility has long been collapsed underground, and it claims that Wiatt's recordings are simply a conspiracy theorist being left to do as he pleases. Rain reads that their videos are garnering too much attention and may attract other larger channels to cover the issue. Before ending the recording, Rain reads that failure to comply would result in a Dreamworld Entertainment employee being sent to their location to ensure no more videos could be uploaded.

A new tape begins in which Lisa, the manager, tells all the employees that a birthday party will be happening soon and that higher ups have instructed her to keep everyone in line. Pen complains about the newly opened facility already hosting events despite the fact that there are safety protocols to be reviewed first. Hayden states that Sara doesn't care, and then they and a security guard named Audrey begin discussing mysterious happenings at the facility such as founders Lewis and Oliver disappearing, computers corrupting all files besides old pictures of the founders, and fellow staff members going missing often. When Hayden and Pen complain about the safety of the animatronics and then of the general facility, Wiatt taunts them for sounding like Rex. The other employees are puzzled by the insult and suspiciously ask Wiatt to explain himself. When Wiatt admits he's been spending time with the animatronics, the others react with shock about an employee interacting with them. Wiatt begins to stutter out an explanation only to be interrupted by Ribbon Dancer entering to ask him for help with the decorations in the Star Light Theater. Wiatt tells his fellow employees that he needs to go before turning off his camera.

A training tape for new employees begins, addressing customer satisfaction by depicting a few potential scenarios that the new hire must choose a correct course of action for. Scenario one depicts a customer asking an employee who is busy cleaning the floors if they could assist them in finding a specific attraction. Scenario two depicts an employee attempting to bring an animatronic into maintenance while the animatornic refuses to comply. The correct answer is shown to be one involving violence towards the animatronic. Scenario three begins, accompanied by a different visual style that instead resembles child-like drawings on a black background. The tape explains that a child is lost in the woods outside of her elementary school and is terrified because she had been bullied by other students for moving from a less wealthy part of town. When her three bullies corner her in the woods, she pushes one off of the edge of a cliff, killing them. The other bullies panic only to be killed as well, and the child leaves the scene without telling a soul. The incident is framed as an accident. This event haunts her to adulthood, leading to an eventual relapse. The tape describes a scenario where a friend pushes her too far and asks for another answer, proposing either she compromise with the friend, leave the facility, or "pull the friend apart until there is nothing recognizable left beyond a bloodied, broken husk." After slowly fading into the image of a disembodied hand clutching a piece of paper, the tape abruptly cuts back to the simple training tape graphics as it happily confirms that the third answer was correct. During its review of the three scenarios, the tape urges the employee to always put the customer first, dismiss any ideas of the animatronics being sentient, and use force against them when necessary. Before it can address the final scenario, the footage is overtaken by static and cuts to someone filming a motionless upside-down Star Light with both masks over his face. The masks eventually move, revealing Star Light's hollow expression. The person moves away, shocked and taken aback. As they question the scene, Star Light leaps towards them, human eyes filling his empty sockets.

In the next tape, Star Light is relieved to see that Wiatt has woken up and reveals that the building collapsed. He explains that all of the screens turned red, sparking Wiatt to assume it was a virus. Star Light questions his logic, but Wiatt says that he's been getting strange signals on his laptop all week and that the security cameras were also acting up. He accuses someone of interfering with Dreamworld Entertainment technology. Star Light says that they haven't had any computer problems since Oliver left, explaining that the founder was in charge of any computer and technology work. Wiatt ponders how Sara feels with the entire facility going under while she's the only founder left in the building. Star Light remarks that it isn't necessarily true before a mechanical whirring grabs his attention and shocks him. Wiatt attempts to pry about his remark before Star Light dismisses him and urges them to leave immediately.

     Security camera footage in the Seaventure attraction plays. A frightened Glory pleads to be left alone, but Rex approaches and attempts to comfort her. Glory says that she thought she'd died but instead became trapped inside of the animatronic's body. Rex continues to console her, saying that his fate is the same and that they could exist that way together. As Glory emerges from the water, still confused, Rex explains that he's been here for three weeks and that he understands what's going on, although he's terrified. They discuss how both of them planned to go to college, with Glory wanting to go somewhere south to get away from the cold weather in Ohio. She says that it'd be nice if they were classmates, and they could've gone to the same school if they didn't die. Rex sadly jokes about the circumstances of his death, having a trash compactor crush his head. He mentions that two of the other animatronics in Dreamworld are like them too. Glory thanks Rex for his comfort and asks for his name. Rex introduces himself as his animatronic's name, and Glory does the same.

    A new recording begins with text declaring it to be audio from Oliver found in the facility's basement, and that it should only be viewed by certified Dreamworld Entertainment faculty and staff. Oliver is heard complaining that it's too dark for his camera to film anything then has the idea to use his camera's flash to give himself some light. He finds a TV propped on top of a shelf with its bottom removed, potentially to put something inside. Oliver comments that the metal and wires inside of it would make it a death trap, scaring himself. He finds an array of different notes and letters from a variety of people, some curious about the whereabouts of certain other employees, others accusing Sara of something, and a few from Sara herself about her plans. Assuming that she knows he's in the basement, Oliver rushes to record as much as possible. However, he stumbles upon a radio experiencing heavy interference until it eventually begins playing ragtime music. Oliver continues onward before he stumbles across a storybook, stating that Dreamworld never produced any and it must be a prototype. He finds the pages full of ominous text about escaping death itself, and upon reaching the book's end, he reads that he will be next. This throws Oliver into a panic, frantically questioning it until a loud crash silences him. The camera sets off with a final flash, showing Oliver collapsed with an illuminated CRT television on his head.
