[Late at night on Fourth of July, after the last fireworks have stopped and after all the droning has worn off, Jane Smith can be seen walking down the streets of the town. Or rather, stumbling, but she doesn't appear to have been drinking. She seems happy as she always does, but the smile today is wider and even less natural looking than normal.

[>You have woken up from the droning. Memories of your fake life still remain, along with your real ones both here and back home.]

...

Despite your will, you are unable to think of those alternate memories as bad. It seems you still cannot think clearly.

...? There is a woman there. Is she crying? Laughing? It's hard to tell. However, she's in trouble. You should go to help her.]

>1. Go help her
2. Leave her be.

Oh...oh hello, honey! Did you have a nice night? I've had such a very nice night!

[doudemoe]

I guess.

But it didn't sound like it was all nice. [You sounded hysterical.]

[mayfield_mods]

No, no, no, it was wonderful, simply wonderful!

[doudemoe]

[He's not convinced, but he'll keep playing dumb.]

That's good.

Would you like me to walk you home?

[mayfield_mods]

No!

Don't make me go back! I don't want to go back there, please!

[doudemoe]

Okay, then where do you want to go? You can't stay out like this.

[mayfield_mods]

Yes, I can! Just a lovely walk! I just need a little more time, please, only a little more time.
