Once More with Feeling!

Play it again, Benny!

Boss... My arms hurt...

Play it! I need to hear this one more time!

The gears are so stiff... arrgh...

Keep it turning, greasemonkey. This cacophany must be heard at the right speed!

Is that why you're using it? Or is that... Hurgh... why you're using it on them?

Both! This music was passed down to me by my grandfather! And from his grandfather before! It's a generation of timpany whistles and mechanical symphony!

And... What does it do to them?

Brings them into my world, Benny. It makes them mine to control.

Why not a recording or something? That's a lot easier on me at least...

Stupid, selfish simpleton! It must be harmonic - Speakers cannot do that! Will not do that! And besides, you said you wanted some exersise...

Yeah... But not just my friggin arms and shoulders...

Hush up! Here comes the accompaniment!

Those whistles are so loud...

They have to be to pierce the defences of the human mind... Like a sonic infection. Crawling up the ear canal and cutting into all of that dull grey matter, turning it cotton candy pink!

You're a poet and a scholar, Mr. Pinkerton.

Please, Benny... Call me Paddy!

Okay... Paddy... So, who are those people down there... There are kids and adults there...

they're nobody special! Some may think they are, but, oh no... Nobody is special. All just drones, you see... Living their lives like insects and carnivores... they have no idea how much FUN they're missing out on!

So... you want to cause chaos?

No! Fun! Fun isn't like Chaos! Chaos is destructive and violent... Fun is constructive! Warm! Exciting!

So... this music'll make them have more fun?

In a way... It'll free them from their inhibitions!

Is... is that Governor Swifton?!

Well! So it is! Looks like he got a flyer too! Just like the mayor! and there is police chief Redfield!

My god...

And with the loss of inhibitions, comes the loss of sensibility! Insanity!

Paddy...

Mr. Pink to you, right now, Benny boy. Keep playing! Keep those bells and whistles rolling!
