Savvy's here, watching the little fiasco of the horseback monument. You should distance yourself from this project. Say it's your Personal Brand Strategist gone rogue.

A seagull lands on the monument, surveying the town below. Then it takes off again.

Your mind is silent, just like the roundabout under the sodium lights.
Your mind is silent, just like the roundabout in the falling rain.

He nods. The roundabout is quiet, almost eerily so in the snow. The apricot sceptre glows fiercer upon the white sheets, held up by the frozen king of disco who hunts for the next funky beat...

- "But was it all worth it? Everything that came before -- Cindy, the stocks, the thing with Idiot Doom Spiral..."
- "One more question, if you don't mind -- was it all worth it?"
- "And was it all worth it?"
- "Never mind. Another question -- was it all worth it?"
- "But was it all worth it? Everything that came before -- Cindy, the stocks, even the street lamp."
- The lieutenant speaks as if you're rich -- a common misconception -- especially if you count the tax. No, we've got a long way to go before we can feel financially comfortable. The hustle never stops!

Good -- take no responsibility over this disaster. People are trying to mourn and all they can see is your gaudy figure mocking them from above.
Don't you see? Idiot Doom Spiral has finally achieved something remarkable.
