[2] Video (Cherrygrove City)

[The feed comes on to show Blake, a little the worse for wear from camping out. he hasn't done that since he was a kid, and wasn't real thrilled with it then either. He standing at the outskirts of a town, and now that he's there, he's not so sure about it. The map calls it Cherrygrove City, but it's not much more than a few buildings by the seaside.]

This is supposed to be a city? Where's the Chinese takeout places, and the alleys full of garbage, and the panhandlers?

[It's a disappointment is what it is, and now Carter's homesick.]

The point is, anybody know if there's someplace to get a shower around here? Fuck knows I need one. I've got some...the hell is this, yen?

[There's some muffled yipping noises from behind him. Blake turns around and grabs something.]

Anyway, this isn't so tough. Steve Buscemi's already beat the crap out of all kinds of little weird monster things.

[he turns back to the screen, holding up a Hoppip by its long green leaf appendages. It chirps into the camera. For all that it got the crap beat out of it an hour or so ago, it looks pretty cheerful. Blake, for his part, looks proud of himself.] I got a turnip with a face.

[He looks at it thoughtfully, then reaches a decision and nods to himself.] Spiro Agnew.
