week 1 - trial

[productions]

week one trial



[At 9 AM precisely, the old grandfather clock chimes once again, and the doors to the drawing room are opened. They will remain open until everyone has come inside, after which they will shut behind them. It is not possible to leave on your own, although perhaps if you have a specific purpose the hostess will allow you to go. The room is set up comfortably, with several tables by the fireplace set out to assist with the trial. The Hostess will also remain in a seat near the fireplace, next to the scales on the mantle. At lunch, the doors will open to bring in a large meal on an automatically rolling buffet, and at 3 PM, tea and finger sandwiches will be served. You'll be able to enjoy the trial in comfort, of course, but the information cards set out on tables will not allow you to forget your true purpose here.]

[respecting]

Aight, aight. We'll see!

[He stares at the freezer impatiently while munching his sandwich and occasionally glancing back at the girl and her panda, then finally caves to his curiosity about Xiao Mei's ability to eat sandwiches and they chat idly until he realizes it's time.]

Whoa, it's here! Moment of truth, yo!

[Four of the bottles remain unchanged. The one marked as Bernkastel's has a chunk of ice floating on top.]

[pandacea]

Ah--! Beat, come look! It worked!

[She grabs the bottles.] Quick, let's hurry back and tell everyone before the evidence melts!
