## Transcript

"I had to pretend I've seen nothing so the company would leave me alone."
"They- They took away my pension, they've- they've- they've been writing me up left and right..."

"For whoever's watching this, my name is jolly."
"I work for Playtime Co., it's a massive toy company. They made Huggy Wuggy, they've been using all of the money they made to experiment with people... I have proof of it all."
"Next week, I've scheduled the companies... The- the servers, the security, to be shut down for sixty minutes of maintenance."
"While security is out, I can release everything and run...I think they are going to kill me first..."
"They have something that eats people alive..."

"I could have saved lives, I had access to everything, it's like they knew..."
"...It's like they knew you- I would never question them. That's probably why they hired me in the first place."
"...I'm an idiot..."
"Listen, if I die, I've hidden everything I found on this tape— If you find this, take it to the police. "
"Do not let them get away with this. Goodbye."
