CODE BLACK: The Truth
The operating table was supposed to be the end of your appendix troubles—not the beginning of a nightmare that would leave you fighting for your life in a hospital gone mad.
Welcome back to the terrifying continuation of "Code Black," where we pick up right after our survivors escaped their initial operating room horror. Armed with nothing but an IV stand and a security guard's baton, they now face a hospital transformed into a labyrinth of death and mystery.
What started as a routine medical procedure has spiraled into something far more sinister. The facility is crawling with "gurglers"—zombies that emit a deadly pink mist from their mouths where organs grotesquely hang. Most horrifying are the infected children, whose small bodies can't contain the infection, causing them to explode when approached.
The stakes rise dramatically when the hospital PA system crackles to life with a message from Dr. Eris Thorne, broadcasting from "sub-level three"—revealing the existence of secret underground floors. Simultaneously, metal grates seal all exits, trapping our survivors inside. What kind of hospital has lockdown protocols and hidden subterranean laboratories?
When armed personnel arrive, they shoot first and ask questions never. Our survivors sustain multiple injuries in the ensuing firefight but manage to overcome their attackers, collecting valuable security access cards for the mysterious sub-levels. Could the key to survival—and answers—lie beneath the hospital?
Throughout this pulse-pounding episode, you'll experience the desperate measures people take when faced with impossible situations: treating severe wounds with limited supplies, disguising themselves in enemy uniforms, and making split-second decisions that determine whether they live or die.
Grab your medical kit and load your weapon—this hospital visit is just beginning, and discharge isn't an option. Subscribe now to hear how deep the rabbit hole goes in this medical facility where healing is the last thing on anyone's mind.
Hello, survivors, and welcome back to another episode of Will You Survive the Podcast. And today we are bringing back one of our utmost amazing episodes. But before we get to that, let me introduce our two characters. Well, we're playing one character, but our two people on the podcast that I'm a host of.
SPEAKER_02:You said you were gonna make us play two people.
SPEAKER_04:Um who? When?
SPEAKER_02:Last episode, it's in the VOD.
SPEAKER_04:I don't know if it's in the edit.
SPEAKER_02:No, I gotta show you.
SPEAKER_04:We got Eric, he's the whiny one. Say hi, Eric.
SPEAKER_01:No, I had a character planned out on everything.
SPEAKER_04:We've got Alex, he's the mute one. He doesn't actually talk, he's just here. Say hi, Alex.
SPEAKER_02:He says hi.
SPEAKER_04:He's signing right now. He actually communicates through squeaks on his bald head. He just rubs his strategically.
SPEAKER_02:Wow. That would actually be quite an impressive language. That's like a Star Trek language for sure.
SPEAKER_04:But yeah, today we are doing Code Black.
SPEAKER_02:Woo!
SPEAKER_04:Uh for those of you who haven't seen the last episode, probably go watch the last episode. It ends on a cliffhanger, and then you can come back to this one. Sit back, relax, enjoy this long ass episode, because it's probably gonna be long because they were in the operating room last time for at least 45 minutes.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, we didn't know the we didn't know the vibe. We were still vibe checking.
SPEAKER_07:Yeah, you were mean. Yeah, you didn't give us any clues. He speaks. Eric.
SPEAKER_02:Can you remind can you remind us for for the audience? Uh what happened last?
SPEAKER_04:Okay, so for those who haven't heard the last episode, basically they were on the top floor of a hospital. They woke up, they were on the operating table. Their appendix was just about to be cut off. Like it was already clamped and everything. They were gonna cut it off or whatever. Woke up, room was covered in blood. Uh it took them 45 minutes. They finally exited the room after doing all the proper medical care to their bodies that they needed to, so they didn't get an infection. That was they then ran into the big bad of the story, my zombies. I'm not sure what I'm gonna call them yet. Let's just call them zombies. Um, gurglers, I think it was one of them. Uh Zekes, they emit a pink mist from their front where their organs are hanging out of their mouth. Uh yeah. Yeah, so they escaped that. They ended up in a room. Uh, that room had a security guard uh in the middle. It was he was dead. Uh there was a room on the right where they could have gotten a flashlight and a gun, but they were smart. They missed it. And we said no. Um, their only weapon was their IV spirit. We missed it, like the pink missed. I hate you. You see what I did there? You see what I did there? The um they stole the security guard shit. He left them but butterball ass naked on the floor. Uh they have He wasn't gonna need it. They have a baton, they have their IV stand, they have handcuffs, they have oh, a map of the building, but only for the top floor. Um, am I missing anything that you can remember?
SPEAKER_02:Well sounds about right.
SPEAKER_07:We went into a stairwell and we were looking to see it our way down, but it's collapsed.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, the stairwell is collapsed from the second floor down.
SPEAKER_07:So they second floor, okay.
SPEAKER_04:They could only be on the third floor, and that's where the pediatric ward and all like the kid ward shit, baby ward, whatever, it's all on that floor. Uh when they made it to that floor, they realized that there are multiple types of zombies. Uh, and when a child is infected with this virus, um, or infection, or whatever the fuck it is, um their little bodies can't stand it. Uh their organs expanding, because usually it'll go out their mouth, but they can't stand it and they explode into a pink mist. Um, there was hundreds of them. Uh, and I believe you were running, got glass in your feet because you were barefoot. Okay, I remember that. And just right at the end of that. Security guard was like a size eight. You threw something. That's right. I think you threw the baton. Wait, what happened? Why did we throw it?
SPEAKER_07:We didn't throw the baton.
SPEAKER_04:What what did you guys throw? You threw something at the zombie.
SPEAKER_02:I'm not gonna lie, because now things aren't really uh clicking too hard with me. I feel like I got tired at the end of this episode.
SPEAKER_04:At the very end of the episode, it ends on a cliffhanger. They throw the baton at the head of the child zombie, or the one that's closest. Because there's a lot chasing. Um that won't open. We threw a baton at a kid to try to they tried to initiate the explosion prematurely, so it didn't get to them.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, what is that?
SPEAKER_04:And that that's that's where we end, because they they rolled a dice, I think. A die. Um Well, what did we roll? To determine. I I I remember what happened, like, because I don't remember what you rolled, but I know that it had a certain I feel like I rolled a nine. I don't think I rolled well. I think it had a certain op like. Whatever's gonna happen is happening. Because that's it was in my brain for so long. I knew what was gonna happen.
SPEAKER_02:Okay. I'm ready. I feel caught up.
SPEAKER_04:Let's do this. What was that noise? Sound like an explosion coming from the floor below us. Maybe I should go check that out. Eric, you're on the floor above the third floor in the stairwell.
SPEAKER_02:I'm old man, Jenkins!
SPEAKER_04:You're not, you're 20 years old. Okay.
SPEAKER_02:I still talk this way. I'm kidding. Uh I'm just I'm kidding.
SPEAKER_04:You go down to check where that explosion is. I'm on the fourth floor. You are on the floor above the third floor in a stairwell. Uh, most people would say fourth floor. Um, do I do I do I know what's going on at all? Uh you have somewhat of a knowledge of what is happening. Oh, right. Just not what's happening down there.
SPEAKER_02:Gotcha. So I hear an explosion. Yeah, I do want to cautiously go down the stairwell if I can, and I kind of want to peer in through the glass and see if I can see what's going on, but I want to be cautious.
SPEAKER_04:As you take your first step down the stairs, bang! Giant explosion. You hear the door on the floor below you shoot back and hit the stairs.
SPEAKER_00:Okay. Uh it got blown off. Can I see anything?
SPEAKER_04:I mean, you're still on the stairs. Do you continue on? Um, hold what do I hear? You hear rubble falling, you hear groaning.
SPEAKER_02:I'm gonna hug the wall closely and slowly start walking down. I I just want to see if I could kind of peer in and see what's happening.
SPEAKER_04:Uh, as you walk down the stairs, you're you know, getting real, you know, real slick with it. You're trying to look around so you don't get spotted by something or you know, whatever. And you see what looks like a security guard with no shoes on.
SPEAKER_07:Oh man.
SPEAKER_02:Um, do am I in a stairway that goes down any any further?
SPEAKER_04:Uh you you I mean you haven't checked.
SPEAKER_02:I I look around. Does it look like I can go down further?
SPEAKER_04:It looks like you can go down further.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, I'm gonna call out. Uh uh, is there anything between me and the security guard? Does he even know I exist?
SPEAKER_04:Uh I you're looking and he looks unconscious or dead.
SPEAKER_02:Oh shit.
SPEAKER_04:And are there any are there any Z's around? Uh there are no Zeds, but you see a bunch of rubble past the door that he's laying next to.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, I'm gonna kinda slink my way over towards the security guard. I'm gonna check him for a gun. Uh, you start checking the security guard and he moves. Oh, come on. Okay, I take my hands out of his pockets. They definitely weren't there.
SPEAKER_04:It looks as though he's alive. But his whole shit. His whole left side is singed and burned in the coat that he's wearing is melted into his skin. You know that the pink mist that comes from these zombies can infect people. Oh no. Do I know of any way to stop that? Uh, earlier in the day, when it started, you've seen a guy cut off a limb to save himself. Is this burn just on his arm or is it like it's it's on his arm, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Alright, buddy. Uh, we're gonna be okay. I'm going to kind of military get underneath his uh his uh sh armpits with my with my arms and kind of start walking backwards, dragging him uh kind of away from the rubble. Is there a room nearby that looks like it might have something sharp? Uh a minute.
SPEAKER_04:Like some sort of you can go up the stairs or down the stairs. Oh, okay. I'm no longer on the floor. Um you're he he got blown into the stairwell. So you're in the stairwell.
SPEAKER_02:I see, I see. Okay.
SPEAKER_04:You can't go through the door that he came through because it's collapsed.
SPEAKER_02:I see. Oh fuck. Do I have anything on me? Do I have a machete or something? Do you want to check for that? Yeah, sure. I'm gonna check. What do I got on me?
SPEAKER_04:You check your bag, you have a little mini Barbie flashlight that you crank in order to use.
SPEAKER_02:I actually I had that on me before the apocalypse.
SPEAKER_04:You have a dead Apple Watch, you have a Samsung phone. It's at 2%. What kind of person am I? I it's weird. I don't know. Uh you have a half-smoked joint.
SPEAKER_02:I know what kind of person I am.
SPEAKER_04:You have a fire axe. Hmm. Okay. Do I have a wearing you have a lighter? You're wearing jeans, uh, jean jacket, and a jean shirt.
SPEAKER_02:Is uh is the security guard awake?
SPEAKER_04:Uh he seems to be like when you're moving him around, he seems to like he's there. Like he's not dead. He's making noises and stuff, but okay, but he is he's out though.
SPEAKER_02:He's out. Sick. I'm gonna take off my belt if I have one. You do have a belt. I'm gonna really tightly uh tourniquet his shoulder. Okay. You do that. Uh I'm gonna pull out the joint out of my pocket and I'm gonna light that up and take a couple hits. You light the joint and start smoking it. Yeah.
SPEAKER_07:Um don't bogart that joint. Yeah, I'll save friends.
SPEAKER_02:I'll save the roach for you. Nice. Um, and I I'm gonna grab my fire axe and I'm gonna start lining up the hit. Um, but I'm not gonna lie, I don't feel like I've done this before, so I'm gonna really hesitate here as I kind of mentally prepare myself, kind of hoping that maybe I don't have to do this.
unknown:Okay.
SPEAKER_04:Right as you're about to do it, he wakes up. Alex, you see a five foot seven uh dark-haired 20-year-old uh with an axe ready to hit you in the face with it.
SPEAKER_02:And a joint in my mouth.
SPEAKER_04:And a joint in his mouth. What do you do?
SPEAKER_07:What are you doing, man?
SPEAKER_02:Um This w I I don't know how to ex Am I dead? Not yet.
SPEAKER_07:Why are you gonna do that?
SPEAKER_02:Well I okay, I should you should first maybe take a hit of this.
SPEAKER_07:I haven't smoked since I've been in college. Good. Okay.
SPEAKER_02:There you go.
SPEAKER_03:Um So don't look. But your arm is.
SPEAKER_04:Alex, as you're fully regaining consciousness, you realize that he's not aiming for your head, but he's aiming for your arm with a belt tied around it. Okay, but don't look.
SPEAKER_07:What happened to my arm?
SPEAKER_02:Well, I don't know. You uh you came bursting through here like a superhero.
SPEAKER_04:Except Alex, do you realize he's going to cut your arm off?
SPEAKER_07:Do you have to? Is there I don't know any medical stations nearby? Can we fix it? Am I bitten?
SPEAKER_01:No, but if it's like the equivalent from what I've seen. Look, I've seen this in a music before.
SPEAKER_04:You remember you were burnt on your back by the pink mist at least 30 minutes ago.
SPEAKER_02:So from what I've seen, um, you don't look too hot.
SPEAKER_07:Uh but if if I'm gonna turn from these burns, I'm gonna turn whether you cut my arm off or not. Because I'm burned all over my back, too.
SPEAKER_02:I slightly adjust my aim more headward. Okay.
SPEAKER_07:I think I think this is kind of fucked up. If I was gonna turn, don't you think I would have already turned?
SPEAKER_01:I don't know you.
SPEAKER_07:Well, I don't know you.
SPEAKER_01:Well, I don't know.
SPEAKER_04:You you in your recollection, you remember that it takes ten seconds to turn.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, I kind of loosen up a little bit.
SPEAKER_07:Um can you maybe put that down?
SPEAKER_02:Yes. I'm gonna lower it and I'm gonna take that joint back.
SPEAKER_07:Okay.
SPEAKER_02:I'm gonna take a step back. Um so the last person that I saw get burned. Um turned pretty fast. And so I don't know uh I don't know anything, apparently.
SPEAKER_07:I think I would have turned by now if I was gonna turn. But if you wouldn't mind helping me, I could use maybe some bandages.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, yeah. Um, do I have a backpack? Do I have anything?
SPEAKER_07:Is there an OR station nearby? Would I I'm a security guard. I think I would know.
SPEAKER_04:You got an old dingy uh T-shirt that has a rock band's name on it.
SPEAKER_02:I I toss him a Metallica shirt. You could use that.
SPEAKER_07:Now, theoretically speaking, I would know if there's an OR nearby or a uh a medical supply station, right? So maybe I can direct him where some medical supplies are.
SPEAKER_04:I mean you could. But as you guys are talking, a sound of a faint crackling alarm followed by a sudden jarring screech of feedback from the PA system happens. A man's voice comes through. Attention hospital staff and remaining patients. This is Dr. Eris Thorne. I am transmitting from a secured lab on sub-level three. The doors are sealed and they're not getting in. Right as you say that. All the doors and windows lock down with metal grates.
SPEAKER_02:So I was just here uh for a uh for a uh a measles shot. Um what kind of hospital is this?
SPEAKER_07:You were here for a measles shot?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I was I was just here. You seem to know uh maybe more about this.
SPEAKER_07:This is just a regular hospital. We take in pediatric patients. Uh on the fifth floor is the operating room.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I don't know many hospitals that um lock down and have sublevels.
SPEAKER_07:Well, um, most hospitals have sublevels. That's where they keep the morgues.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, I didn't know that. I but-level three?
SPEAKER_07:I don't know anything about that. I don't even know who that doctor is. For all I know, he's not even a real doctor.
SPEAKER_04:Gunshots downstairs. Okay, we could keep arguing about this.
SPEAKER_07:Or we could get out of here because they're coming. Okay, well do we go towards? Well, here's the concern. Uh, we go towards the gunshot, and they're probably gonna do to us what you were gonna do to me. Can you walk? Can I walk?
SPEAKER_04:Do you want to check your body?
SPEAKER_07:I do.
SPEAKER_04:Uh your arm's cooked. Uh it's your left arm, it's pretty burnt and uh crispy. Uh lots of acid burns all over it. Your legs are fine. Uh other than the glass that was in your feet. Um there's probably still a little bit in there. Um, and the rest of your body's fine, other than the scar where you're you cut out your appendix.
SPEAKER_07:So on this level, really there would be a nursing station, and the nurse's station would have some basic medical supplies. I need to take care of this arm and this wound, otherwise, we're not gonna move very far very fast. Okay. I'm gonna need your help, and you can't leave without me because I know how to get around in this place.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, well, I was hanging tight on the fourth floor. Um, if we want to check that or any anything to help you. Um I don't think you can move very much right now. Where where would these supplies be? Do you know on the fourth floor?
SPEAKER_07:So I want to check my memory. Um, what do I know about this level? And where could I get medical supplies?
SPEAKER_04:Well, you know that the level you're on, you're currently in the staircase. The door next to you is completely unable to be used. There's rubble everywhere. That goes to the floor. So that's a no-go. Uh and you know that the floor below you is just like a general hospital floor. It's it's gonna be the second floor.
SPEAKER_07:We gotta check the second floor. That's where I remember the supplies will be.
SPEAKER_04:Okay. Um Is that where is y'all y'all going to the second floor? Yeah, can you walk?
SPEAKER_07:Carefully, daintily. I cannot run. I can't. I need your help.
SPEAKER_02:Okay. Kind of do like the army. Yep. Put your arm over me. My good arm. And we'll uh we'll shamble down the stairs towards the second floor.
SPEAKER_04:Yep. Alright, so you go down the stairs very slowly. And it takes a good you know, five minutes. His feet are really fucked up. Leaving blood everywhere.
SPEAKER_02:Watch your watch your step. Watch your step. Okay, there's another step. Okay, there's another step.
SPEAKER_04:You get to the door for the the second floor.
SPEAKER_02:Do you look at? Okay.
SPEAKER_04:Um yeah, yeah, we peek in. You peek in through the glass and you see what looks like some sort of SWAT team member or something. Not he's he's very heavily geared up. Uh headlamp on his head, and he's shooting down people. Okay. What look like people.
SPEAKER_07:By himself?
SPEAKER_04:It looks as though he's by himself.
SPEAKER_02:Okay. You wait here. Where would where would this medical box thing be? Front desk?
SPEAKER_07:I don't think we should do that. I think we should check. What do you mean? We should check to see what what is this guy's purpose here? Is he here to kill everything and everybody? Or is he only killing those things?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, that's I was I wasn't even gonna talk to him. Don't you worry. I don't want to go towards the big scary guy with the gun.
SPEAKER_07:This is what I want to do. I'm gonna approach him.
SPEAKER_02:What?
SPEAKER_07:If he turns to kill me, I want you to bury that axe in his neck.
SPEAKER_02:He we're coming from the same spot.
SPEAKER_07:I'm gonna go first. I'm gonna hide, I'm gonna he's not facing us.
SPEAKER_02:I mean, that's true. Okay. Um, this seems like I'm gonna get as close as I can to him. What about the things he's shooting? I feel like we're not thinking about everything. I feel like you're very injured. And um, I know I've smoked a little bit already, but I feel like we should just grab the box and but we can't get by him without being noticed.
SPEAKER_04:As you're talking, you hear level two clear heading up to the third.
SPEAKER_07:Oh shit, he's coming.
SPEAKER_04:Uh you hide behind the door.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, okay, I hide behind the door with the axe. I'm ready.
SPEAKER_04:All right. You you you hear steps. He's getting closer. He's getting closer.
SPEAKER_02:Go up the stairs a little.
SPEAKER_04:The door swings away.
SPEAKER_07:I'm backing away towards the stairs, and I'm gonna ask him for help. You get down!
SPEAKER_02:I peek around the door. I'm I'm ready if it seems like he's gonna shoot.
SPEAKER_07:I'll comply. I'll get down on my knees. I'm asking for help.
SPEAKER_04:We've got a civilian here, and uh, you know, you hear them. But sir, he's not infected. All right, I guess he pulls the gun up and drives.
SPEAKER_02:I put the axe down on him.
SPEAKER_04:You smack him, hits him right in the back of the neck. He drops thud. He continue to swing on him.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, I swing a couple times. I I swing like a lot. There's a lot of adrenaline happening.

One one dude is on the ground bleeding from his shoulder, one dude is dead. So uh I am going up to the city. Dude is not a threat at the current moment, but yeah. You get a double tap.
SPEAKER_07:Maybe we question him. Maybe you we question him first. Who who are you? What are you doing here? Do I recognize this guy?
SPEAKER_04:Uh, you do not recognize this guy.
SPEAKER_07:So that's my that's my line of questioning. Who are you? What are you doing here? Why are you trying to kill us?
SPEAKER_02:While he's interrogating him, I'm standing over him trying to look real tough with the AR.
SPEAKER_07:After you just screamed in the hallway.
SPEAKER_02:I bet I'm standing over him trying to look all tough.
SPEAKER_04:He's like listen, you can't you can't let them out. We we're in lockdown.
SPEAKER_01:What do you mean?
SPEAKER_04:What are they? I'm not the doctor would know that. I don't know that. I'm just I'm just a medivac.
SPEAKER_07:And why are you trying to kill us? We're not infected. Didn't you shoot first?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, sidebar.
SPEAKER_07:I I pull you over. We did shoot first. No, no, no. That other guy tried to kill us. We asked for help, and he tried to kill us. And in response, they send these guys. You're right, you're right. I turn back around. That's not what happened. Yeah, we shot you guys first, but you were gonna kill us.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. Where's Finch? Okay, you you see this? I show him I show him my head. This is you guys. It's not even like booming that much.

SPEAKER_02:Actually, I don't know if you son of a bitch! One of us pulls a gun out of us.
SPEAKER_04:Roll of dice.
SPEAKER_06:Come on, I'm standing over him with my gun still in my hand. You're gonna make me roll for this?
SPEAKER_04:It's a surprise.
SPEAKER_02:I gotta agree. I gotta agree. A seven. I feel like you should get advantage. Advantage? Yeah. You're telling me this guy's gonna pull a gun when Alcat actively has a gun pulled on him.
SPEAKER_04:You have advantage. I say you can roll again.
SPEAKER_00:That did not have a three. It was a seven, and now it's a three.
SPEAKER_04:Alex shot in the left arm. Alex, you get shot in your left arm, but you should end up ending the guy. Point blank. Uh you have one bullet left, don't you? Yes.
SPEAKER_02:I have what? I have eight bullets left.
SPEAKER_07:Fuck. Okay. Check all of them. This guy had a gun. Yeah. I need more ammo.
SPEAKER_02:I'm gonna take the other guy's sidearm and ammo. Alright, so you you you take the uh team? Yeah, I'll take the other medical guy who I assume had a handgun.
SPEAKER_07:I won't take a rifle. I can't handle a rifle. I got no left arm. You take his ammo though, because they probably are using the same ammo.
SPEAKER_02:I'll I'll take the if it's the same rifle ammo, I'll take the rifle ammo and I'll hand you the handgun ammo. But I'm I'm gonna keep a handgun from the medical team. If there's like two, I assume each one had a handgun. Is that correct?
SPEAKER_04:Each of them have the exact same stuff as they okay.
SPEAKER_02:I'll take a handgun and I'll take like two mags of ammo, but I'll give the rest over to Alex.
SPEAKER_07:And check the other guard for a sidearm matching my pistol.
SPEAKER_02:Wait, does it match?
SPEAKER_04:Or is the ammo at least the same? Uh you check his ankle. It's not the same uh same uh, you know, kit. You didn't have a gun. Same ammo? Doesn't have a gun there. Oh, okay.
SPEAKER_07:Okay. Now I gotta patch up these bullet wounds. Do you feel I'm in agony? I'm tough. Don't worry about me. You got me high.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. It's strong stuff.
SPEAKER_04:It's from Colorado. It's like I don't feel anything.
unknown:You know.
SPEAKER_04:Is he feeling it?
SPEAKER_07:The problem is that I'm already burnt to a crisp. I'm pretty sure if it was it sounded like that would be third degree burns. My nerves are completely shot. I'm barely feeling anything in my left arm.
SPEAKER_04:Is he bleeding? Uh he's he's bleeding. Um I don't think he feels it though. Uh it's it's they're pretty deep burns. They're rapid probably.
SPEAKER_07:But like I need you to check me if these three shots are through and through.
SPEAKER_02:Okay. Uh I look. Are they through and through? They're all through and through.
unknown:Okay.
SPEAKER_07:So you're good. All I gotta do is stop the bleeding. So we need some get your belt. We need some co- I got this. We need some uh blood clotting gauze, which they would have.
SPEAKER_02:Does the medical team have that have that on them? I assume they would.
SPEAKER_07:They should have a full kit.
SPEAKER_04:They came to Yeah, there's there's a there's a medical bag next to the gurney that they're carrying.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, I take I take the kit, I put one of the kit, one of the kits in my backpack, and then I open up the other kit, um, and I start kind of rummaging through stuff, but I don't really know what any of this is.
SPEAKER_07:I need you to look for morphine. It would be an injection. They should have a syringe and they should have a vial. There's two. And if it says morphine on it, I want to use that.
SPEAKER_02:I look at I look at the vials, I find the morphine. Um I put I put the syringe into it. I assume this is how morphine works, and I I pull some out. Okay. Morphine. Okay. Hold on to that.
SPEAKER_04:Mm-hmm. Turns out it wasn't morphine, it was fent.
SPEAKER_02:Turns out it wasn't morphine, it was porphine.
SPEAKER_04:Alex is currently leaning on the corner of a gas station right now.
SPEAKER_05:That's exactly what would happen. So are you being serious though?
SPEAKER_04:Is it No, it's it's you you do find morphine. Uh you also find uh a clotting agent and more gauze. So I do my best couple tampons.
SPEAKER_07:Clot the I I do my best to stop the bleeding, wrap it. We're on the move here. We gotta do something. Um I I have to inject myself with this morphine.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I hand that to you. I don't like needles.
SPEAKER_07:And do I have to roll for that? Or am I good?
SPEAKER_04:You inject it, it goes in. Um you're feeling it. It's uh it feels good. It feels great.
SPEAKER_07:My reaction times are gonna be slower, so you're gonna have to pay attention to it.
SPEAKER_04:But now your lips are numb.
SPEAKER_07:Now now I'm in agony, but I don't care. Yeah, you so what I what we need to do now is check the rest of these guys for their cards. They should have security clearances, they should have some key cards. Let's strip them and see what they've got.
SPEAKER_04:Uh looking for that. Uh you find on the Medivac guy, you one of them, you find an access card to level one. You also find another one uh to uh sub-level one on the other guy.
SPEAKER_02:Okay.
SPEAKER_04:Um on the gunman, you find a access card to sublevel three.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, we're taking it. We take a sub-level. What's the other card we had? Sorry. Was that sub-level four?
SPEAKER_04:Sub-level four, you have a sub-level three and two sub-level ones.
SPEAKER_07:Okay. And now, thankfully, I've already taken the morphine and it's already kicked in because now I'm going to cause myself great distress. I have to put on that bulletproof vest.
SPEAKER_02:I was gonna say, are you gonna put on the other guy's gear?
SPEAKER_07:I have to slide my arm in there, which is going to hurt like hell, but at least I won't care.
SPEAKER_02:I help you. Um, do they have helmets by any chance? Or like anything that kind of obstructs the face? Yes. Let's put those that on. We are now these people.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, you you already had it on, Eric. You put on all the dude's gear. Oh. Cool. Um, so Alex, he does the same. Uh that's why it was crazy. You got just you chop dudes' head off somehow. It's crazy.
SPEAKER_07:What what I'm what I'm guessing is are they wearing uh are they wearing gas masks at all? Uh respirators.
SPEAKER_04:They they are wearing respirators and there are like clear goggles over the eyes uh to block blood splatter.
SPEAKER_07:We gotta put those on too. We do that. And the the next thing is uh is the gunman was he wearing a um like a coat or just like a long sleeve shirt or what was he what was he in?
SPEAKER_04:He had a tank top, he had a black t-shirt.
SPEAKER_07:That was it, just a black t-shirt.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, black long sleeve t-shirt.
SPEAKER_07:Uh long sleeve.
SPEAKER_04:Yes.
SPEAKER_07:So I'm going to put that on uh before I put the vest on. I'm gonna put that long sleeve shirt on, but I'm not going to put my arm in the sleeve. I'm going to pin my arm and kind of uh my hand is jacked up, isn't it? Because my my whole arm all the way down to my fingertips are burnt.
SPEAKER_04:Uh there's there's some spots that aren't um like near your hand area, but you know, there's still a little bit of spiciness on your hand.
SPEAKER_07:Okay. I'm not going to wrap like fully wrap my arm. These are third degree burns. So wrapping is gonna actually no, I should. I should wrap them because it's it's prone to infection at this point. So how much polyester is still stuck on me?
SPEAKER_04:Uh you managed to get about 85% of it out with the uh the stuff you found at the nursing station.
SPEAKER_07:Okay. Uh is there is there any benefit to me searching their medical kit to see if I could do a better job with what they have, or is there nothing more like I'm gonna need scalpel and surgical equipment and a doctor to do the rest?
SPEAKER_04:There's none of that in there. It's just you know what you found.
SPEAKER_07:Okay, then I am. I'm gonna have to wrap it and I'm going to uh do they have enough gauze that I would be able to makeshift a sling that I can wrap my whole arm and then wrap it to my body, tape it to my body and wrap the the uh gauze all the way around my my torso. You could roll for that. Come on, my dumbass can do that right now. 17.
SPEAKER_02:And your dumbass can also do it now. Yep.
SPEAKER_07:And I got shot in the other arm now.
SPEAKER_04:From from from hella far back, just shot in the Eric drops his gun, shot in the arm. And it went through one of the bullet holes already there.
SPEAKER_03:You drop something and it startles me and it's oh fuck.
SPEAKER_06:No, you can't. Yeah, because I'm wrapping your arm. I'm wrapping the gauze and I scream.
SPEAKER_02:What is this? Okay, I scramble and I grab the gun. I got him.
SPEAKER_06:I got him. You got me.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, you successfully get your arm into uh wrapped into a bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit.
