Prince is fine.

Walter. Let's talk.

[wretched_son]

Speak, then.

[mostly_spice]

We both know how this works. I want you back in a cage.

[Here, have the sound of Prince whimpering a little.]

You want him out of one. Let's trade.

[prince0fcosmos]

w-walter... please...

[wretched_son]

You will be safe. Of that, I promise.

[wretched_son]

I fail to see it being a fair exchange. You hold an innocent life. I am not one.

Elaborate for me on this exchange. If I were to agree, where would I meet you? How would you ensure his release?

[mostly_spice]

No. You're a threat to a lot more innocent lives. Deal was you got locked up. Killing yourself and leaving whenever you feel like it was not part of the deal.

The prison's open. You don't need a key to lock yourself back into the cell. Someone pats you down for weapons. After that, kid goes free. I'll even bring him to you, if you want that.

[wretched_son]

I want assurance that he is safe. Do this for me.

{A tight shot of Prince caught in a pet carrier. He has a blanket and a can of food and a bottle of water. It clicks over to audio again.]

He's fine. He's just not getting set free until you're locked up.

[wretched_son]

Keep him safe in the meanwhile.

Or there will be blood on your hands.

[mostly_spice]

You'll have to tell me what that feels like, sometime.

[prince0fcosmos]

W-Walter!! We.. We are in a place with lots of boxes and it is sort of dark and dusty!! It smells old..

[locked to Prince]

[wretched_son]

That will do.

Be patient for me.

[locked to Walter]

[prince0fcosmos]

OK!! OK! But please please be careful!! Please- it will make Us sad if you get hurt, or hurt somebody.. We.. We don't want you to be sad, either!!
