INT. GOAT MAN'S HOUSE–DAY

BELINDA stands in front of the crowd and has a piece of paper in her hand. GINA, MIN, and JORDANIA listen to her.

BELINDA CONT'D: We got the results! Erle is representing the machine group, Conner for the goat, and Lucy for void. Vanessa is the leader for the wandering souls. I guess that's a given since she got the key.

GINA: Are we going to see how much did they win by?

BELINDA: No, it would be mean to.

MIN: I would like to know the results.

JORDANIA: Yeah same, if the difference was one vote then a recount might be needed.

BELINDA: Nope, everything is good.

GINA: How do we know the polls aren't rigged?

BELINDA: No worries, you can trust me.

MIN: Are you sure about that?

BELINDA: Yes! I've dedicated the most time to the mystery, I can be trusted.

JORDANIA: We keep telling you to sleep more. You haven't been doing that.

BELINDA: I don't get enough sleep anyways without the mystery. I'll be fine.

Jordania stares at her with concern and Min stares at her with an unconvinced expression.

MIN CONT'D: I don't think—

LUCY enters the scene with ERLE.

LUCY CONT'D: Belinda! It's your turn to cook dinner!

BELINDA (to Lucy): Fine! (To the rest) I have to go now.

GINA: Talk to you later!

LUCY: So what's been happening?

GINA: You and Erle became representatives of the group.

ERLE: What are we supposed to do again?

MIN: No idea.

LUCY: Wait to be chosen by Goat Man if I recall correctly?

ERLE: I still think it's pointless to do this.

JORDANIA: Same.

MIN: I agree.

LUCY: I mean it might be useful?

GINA: Yeah, we don't have to do last minute deciding if we need a representative.

JORDANIA: Well, we'll see.

LUCY: Got any ideas on what you think might happen next?

GINA: Well I got a few...

Gina and Lucy chat amongst themselves and Erle, Jordania, and Min sit in an awkward silence.

MIN CONT'D: So.

ERLE: Huh?

MIN (pauses): Nothing.

Jordania mindlessly stares into space with a worried expression.

MIN CONT'D: What's on your mind, Jordania?

JORDANIA: Just thoughts.

MIN: What kind of thoughts?

JORDANIA: Just worrying.

MIN: Worrying about what?

JORDANIA: People.

MIN: What kind of people?

Jordania pauses and gives a frustrated sigh.

JORDANIA CONT'D: If you want me to shower you in compliments, all you have to do is ask.

MIN (rolls eyes): Damn it, Jordania. You seem to be bothered by something so I'm making sure you're alright.

JORDANIA: You're what?

MIN: You're important to the group. Every person counts to solving the mystery.

JORDANIA: What?

MIN: Also, you're fun to talk to.

JORDANIA: I'm not used getting compliments from you. Is this a trap? Are you trying to trick me into something?

MIN: I'm ignoring that.

JORDANIA: Who are you and what have you done to Min? Answer me you imposter.

MIN: Jordania, can't I be nice for a day?

JORDANIA: No. No, you can't.

MIN: Seriously, Jordania?

JORDANIA: Seriously, Min?

The two can barely hold in their laughter and Erle watches them in confusion.

ERLE CONT'D: When did you guys get so close anyways? At first it was hostile and now you guys seem pretty close.

Jordania glances at Min and Min shrugs.

MIN CONT'D: It's a long story. Right, Jordania?

JORDANIA (nods): All I'll say is that we came to an agreement and we grew closer since then.

ERLE: Huh, alright.

MIN: But I guess our dynamic has changed.

ERLE: You definitely are friendlier with each other now.

JORDANIA: Indeed we are.
