“Um, it was after dad divorced mom.

He got into a big fight with Mama Ni-, uh, our aunt Nina, it was scary. They were screaming a lot.

He left the house after that.

Then, like a week later, he messages me saying that he wants me to go to one of his factories.

I uh, I wasn’t really sure what to do because last time he was home he was really angry and loud and I was gonna be with him alone so…

I mean! he has never hurt me or anything! But, um, you know, that could change.

I asked if I could go with Nadia or Owen, but he said no, that it was for me only.

Then Nadia gave me one of her cameras, it was a secret one that i could hide in my clothes, that way if he hurts me or something we would have proof.

It’s… difficult to tell authorities someone famous did bad things without proof.

Sometimes even with proof.

The camera did make me feel a bit safer, though.”

“Why didn’t you just not go?”

“… I didn’t want dad to be mad at me or disappointed. I mean, he divorced mom, and even so, he messaged me. That means he cares, right? A little bit?”

“… keep going”

“Um, he wanted me to take a tour of the factory. He always says that I’m his heir and that I need to know things when I take over and stuff like that. So we went.

But the thing is, it was really bad inside.

Nobody looked happy to be there. Half of the people had some sort of injury and some people got injured while I was there too!

Dad said it was on purpose

That he’d been doing it for a few days

That he would keep doing it.

And, you know, I asked why! How has no one said anything about it??

He said that, uh, after it’s done, he will never have to worry about anything again.

That he will tell me when I’m older.

Apparently, he made the workers sign an NDA, where he gave them health care for their injuries and a raise as long as they kept working and did not talk about it.

After the, uh, ‘tour’ i guess, I showed the video to Nadia and Owen.

Nadia… really didn’t like it. She already really dislikes dad, but I think she knows something else, i dont know, ask her.

She said we needed to stop him! That we needed to expose him!

But, you know, we don’t really have much power.

Our moms were going through it, and dad could easily buy the police if we gave the video to them.

Then Owen remembered that time dad showed him his speedrunning videos.

He said that we could upload them to his account there. That way, it would make it seem like he was treating it as a game, and people would, like, actually get mad at him!”

“I saw his password. It was dolphinsareugly32, he uses it for multiple accounts

We took out the audio to protect Simon’s identity and used some obnoxious dubstep to make it look sillier.

I bartered with the moderator to please let it through for justice reasons, and he agreed! but only for a few days. So the moment it was up, I sent the link to a reporter lady I saw on Twitter.”

“Ah, of course, after the news broke out, he immediately recognized it was us who did it, and he got really angry.

When he was getting detained, he screamed at us about how much of a traitor we were.”

“Well, then he started screaming it at everyone”

“Um, yeah, so he’s probably very angry at us now.”

“Then why did you accept his invitation to come here?”

“I didn’t want to! Well, maybe a little, but it was Nadia who wanted to! She said that dad might be planning something and that she wanted to stop it.

And, well, we didn’t want her to go alone, so now we’re here.

But hey! Mom and Mama are here too, so it’s not as scary”

“Speaking of your mom, she said she wanted to talk to you about something.”

“Oh, uh… i dont know….”

“We told her that all of us might be in danger. She wants to keep you guys safe.”

“… We can check it out”

“Ah! Before you go, where is your sister?”

“Nadia is on the second floor, i think. She went to get blankets for a fort”

“Thank you”

The teens stay to discuss more in private.

Oliver and Ángel get out of the room.

“Give me my hat back”

“No”

“Bastard”

Ángel sighs

“So what, the guy is a maniac, but not a speedrun obsessed maniac?”

“It appears so, I think the oldest daughter should know more”

“Yeah, probably, they were like colleagues or something”

“Where did you get that?”

“I’ve talked to them before”

“… I hope I wasn’t too pushy, I don’t like being mean to kids”

“Especially the hat kid, I think our fatherhood talk must’ve awaken some fatherly instict in me, I really want to protect that kid”

“… yeah, I can see that”

“Let’s get moving. Time is not by our side”

“Oh, you have no idea how right you are”
