Summary of Receipt
17, 26 and Jericho from the Other Cafe interrogate Pleasant. She reveals that the Dark are still searching for the 'First Book', and hints that the Blood Moon was used by the Salvation Cult and that the Cafe will soon discover just what the Ice Machine tracks, telling them to 'hang out in the hallways' before disappearing through a portal - though, allegedly, not to the Dark. Also, the Other Cafe's 8's name is Nikki - Nicole Langley.

CAFE AND DINER RECEIPT FROM 9/23/17
MANAGER 26
RECEIPT: MRSPLEASANT07
STATUS: NO SERVICE
Mrs. Pleasant Customer Satisfaction Survey conducted by 17, 26, and unwanted guest (UG). The most relevant information has been collected and transcribed by the CaDCom system.
S.O.T Mrs. Pleasant: What a lovely cell you have here. 17: Oh, you like it? That's good. You'll be here a while. Mrs. Pleasant: Oh, couldn't I get out on good behavior? 26: You killed someone. Mrs. Pleasant: Only a government dog, what's it to you? 17: You can't just kill people! …Even if the people might deserve it. 26: [17], tone it down. We need information. Mrs. Pleasant: You think I know so much because I was once with the House of Satan. Funny. I'll answer what I can. 17: What do you know about the blood moon? Mrs. Pleasant: It's some dirt rock celestial phenomenon where your moon turns red. Thrilling. 26: And the boundary lines? Mrs. Pleasant: Hm... I suppose... The Otherside is just a rotation of this dirt rock. A moment in it's past. So, we've already seen the Blood Moon, and the right people could use that to their advantage. Perhaps they seek salvation? UG: Oy, someone like Umbra? Mrs. Pleasant: Oh, he doesn't need any ritualistic nonsense. He has a guest coming over soon, Rico. Then it won’t matter where the boundary lines are! Aren’t you excited? UG: Bloody ‘ell… what are you tryin’ to get at, eh? Was the tulpa not enough? Now it’s all about tearing apart the bloody Flipside? All for what? To find your little book? Mrs. Pleasant: Little book? Oh, sweet Jericho, it is THE book. The first book. UG: Lawds above, is Umbra still on about that? It doesn’t bloody exist! If the Red-bloke couldn’t find it no one can! 17: Okay that’s not really our business... What do you know about this (The Ice Machine)? Mrs. Pleasant: It's... a tracker. What of it? 26: What does it track, Pleasant? Mrs. Pleasant: Friday. 17: We know it goes off on Fridays but WHO does it track? Mrs. Pleasant: It’s what? …The 23rd? I suppose you'll find out soon enough. If I were you, I’d hang out in the hallways if possible. That’s where it’s the most fun. UG: Right. Well, I’ll leave you lot with that riddle and me ‘an Pleasant should be getting back to Florida. My team can contain ‘im and maybe we can ransom ‘im off to the Dark. Mrs. Pleasant: Oh, goody I get to leave. Except I’m not going back to the Dark. UG: Oh? Whyzat? Trouble in paradise? Mrs. Pleasant: Yes. That’s the plan. Now this has been a very fun game of cops and robbers, but I must be going. [Around this time some type of energy rift opened, and Mrs. Pleasant escaped] UG: Oy! What in the seven hells- 26: That’s not good. UG: Oh yeah? You think so Jules? Bloody ‘ell… You see what we’re dealing with, eh? It’s your choice, mate. I can’t force your hand. But think about my offer, choice? If not for me, for Nikki. She misses you. Joy too. 26: Hm. E.O.T
