(skateboard rattling) (suspenseful music)

(can cracking)

- Some friend you turned out to be.

(dramatic music)

I told you 40 years ago you wouldn't listen.

Now look what you're doing.

You didn't give me a chance.

You let the whole thing slide right down the damn toilet.

Now what do you got? Shit, you piece of shit.

You don't even know what's going on, do you?

What do you think I got?

(dramatic music) Not shit.

(beer splashing)

(can clanking) It's all piss anyway.

Crap. (dramatic music)

Back in those days,

I had some strange ways of taking care of the anger.

The name is Axel, Veteran Contra Drug Wars

Hundred and First Air Cavalry,

three years in Central American Jungles left me

without the use of my hips

and a nervous system ripped to shreds.

All I have is my deck and the clothes on my back.

Some people think my behavior is the result of the war

and a bad diet, but so what?

I am a successful mutation,

a product of my environment just like everybody else.

(wheels clattering) (drum rattling)

Surviving the war was one thing.

Surviving the place I lived in was another matter.

Five acres of shipping containers was the city's answer

to low income housing.

It was a brutal scene,

but it was better than sleeping under via docks,

The city called it a housing project.

We just called it the Gray Zone.

(drum rattling)

One thing about survival is that you need friends to do it.

I was fortunate to have some able bodied

that helped me get around.

There was Scratch an androgyne percussion expert

who was one of the toughest health food freaks I ever knew.

Scratch! Scratch!

Stop that Scratch.

If you're not part of the problem, you are the solution.

You jack off.

Cut that shit out. Cut it out.

Cut that shit out Scratch.

- Uh oh, you've been rolling around downtown again Axel,

sucking up nitrates and twitching.

Here. This will make you feel better.

(drums rattling)

- Goddamn vaporwave hell.

Those asses are dinner.

There was also young Razoreus,

an edgy kid full of deviant hormones

and like Scratch an expert shoplifter

and all purpose vandal.

We all lived there.

Zoners in the gray zone. (drums rattling)

(rock music) (stick rattling)

(rock music continues)

(rock music continues)

But one guy we'll never forget is Orpheus.

Everybody liked him in the Zone.

He had a band called The Shredders

and we would go see him at the Thrash Bin Club

every chance we could.

Not having money didn't stop us,

we would always find a way to rock like rabid dogs.

(crowd cheering)

- Okay, one more and we gotta go.

(crowd cheering)

Can we have the projection please?

Okay there's an old saying, nobody loves me.

Everybody hates me.

Guess I'll go eat worms. (crowd cheering)

Don't ever do that.

That's an old saying.

(rock music continues) (crowd cheering)

- Orpheus, don't break the guy's face, it's not worth it.

(crowd cheering) (rock music continues)

- You don't have to do this.

(rock music continues) (crowd cheering)

- [Axel] Seemed like Orpheus had it made,

a hot band and a hot dancer chick named Eurydice.

But on this particular night, things started to get weird.

- Hey Orpheus. Nice work. - Yeah, right.

See you later. - Yeah, right.

See you later.

Why is he so bent outta shape?

- Ah, he's gotta bug up his ass.

- [Axel] Later that night we went on

a little search and destroy mission.

It was then we stumbled on this weird new TV show.

At the time,

none of us realized how much it would affect us.

(patriotic music)

(static crackling) (dramatic music)

- [Announcer] Don't touch that dial,

Welcome late night viewers.

It's time for your favorite video narcotic

from the Underworld Entertainment Capital,

the Euthanasia Broadcast Network presents,

"Praise the Ray" with your hosts Hades and Persephone Akada.

- Good evening ladies and gentlemen,

and welcome to the world of the sedate,

where the subliminal meet the sublime.

Sit back, relax,

and let the cathode ray fill your soul

as we share together the ministry of somnolence.

- Praise the ray.

- [Hades] Let yourself be comfortable.

Give yourself to the ray.

The ray is so comforting, so soothing.

Lets yourself absorb the ray into every pore of your body.

- The light from the ray is the beautiful mystery of waves

and particles and particles

and waves becoming waves of parts and parts of waves,

blending into little wave-icles of lightning bugs

washing over you and cleansing and healing you.

As you breathe in,

observe the teeny weeny bits of microwave radiation

manifest in your being.

As you breathe out, feel the warm glow.

So soothing, so relaxing.

So give yourself to the ray.

(pots clanking)

(dramatic music)

(pans rattling)

(upbeat rock music)

(car clanking)

- Bring that sucker down.

- Today's used cars are better than ever before.

We offer 500 year 50 million mile protection.

The rust never sleeps, today the pride is back.

If you can find a better deal, thrash it.

(glass shattering) (rock music continues)

See that, boot it, bust it.

- [Guard] Hey, what are you doing?

- Hey, let's get out of here!

- [Guard] Goddamn kids.

(rock music continues)

(peaceful music) (guitar twanging)

(guitar thunking)

(peaceful music continues)

(both sighing)

- You love to torture me.

- Because you deserve it.

You need to be punished.

- What did I do?

- Oh, that thrashing around making that nasty racket.

Did you do that when you were growing up?

- Ma'am, I've dedicated my life

to the sound of metal insects

screaming in a wall of oatmeal.

- Since when?

- Oh, back in 86,

the first band was a speed metal Neo Detroit outfit

with Direct Eye Marshall Stacks,

They were called Latent Death Wish.

- Latent Death Wish.

Don't you think that name's cutting it too close.

- Oh, don't get serious on me.

That was just a stupid marketing strategy

for the corpse lookalike crowd.

- The strategy didn't work, did it?

You're still alive, aren't you?

- Try me.

- Do I have to?

- Do you want to?

(peaceful music continues)

(upbeat electronic music)

- [Producer] I hope you like this one.

I think she would be great on the show.

Look at that.

She's got great moves.

- He's not bad either,

- Yes, perhaps. (lighter clicking)

(lighter snaps)

But you can never really tell on tape.

See, the proof is to see her dead in person.

- [Producer] We've got plenty of storage

and we need some fresh talent.

It's absolutely critical to our growth,

Network programming's already hardwired

into the trilateral corporate structure.

Hell, we've got 85% of that market.

But if we're going to get beyond the corporate crust

and expand our viewing addicts,

we've got to reach out and put our finger

on the main vein of the youth market.

We need the heartbeat of America.

- That is it.

- Do you think you can start with her?

- I think we can build a program around her,

with her we can play Peoria. (dramatic music)

- Get her. (music intensifies)

(upbeat music) (water splashing)

- Looks like you might have overdone it.

- Do I have any choice when the music is the Shredders?

Ow. (electricity crackling)

(both panting) (peaceful music)

(fire crackling)

- Hey Orpheus. Let's go hit the Safeway.

- Sorry, I've got other plans.

- Hey, we got a stock up for the month.

Come on man. Don't go soft on me.

- Orpheus? (peaceful music continues)

- You are going soft. (fire crackling)

- What do you think?

- I'm ready for a change.

- You ready? Let's do it.

(peaceful music continues) (fire crackling)

(train blaring)

- And now by the power vested in me by the state of mind,

incorporated within the ephemeral boundaries

known as the gray zone, I hereby pronounce you

husband and wife. - Woo.

You can go ahead and kiss each other.

- Ah. - Yeah.

(crowd clapping) (crowd cheering)

- Thanks.

- My pleasure. Congratulations.

I'm sorry your folks can't be around to see this.

They'd be very happy for you.

- Thank you. Muchas gracias. Allow me to be the first.

(all laughing)

All right now I have managed to procure for the occasion

some of that incredible punch so shall we let the fun begin?

(crowd cheering) (upbeat electronic music)

(dramatic music)

- Where did we get these caterers?

- You know, Linus and his weird deals,

they probably came with the place.

- Congratulations. - Thank you.

(drink splashing)

(dramatic music)

- Revelers, revelers, may I have your attention please?

I would like to propose a toast to the bride and groom.

To the bride and groom,

may their love be in invincible, inexhaustible, relentless,

totally consuming, and of course, eternal. (laughs)

Prust. Prust. (crowd clapping)

Now come here you two,

I want to give you a wedding present. (laughs)

Come on, come on, come on, come on.

The perfect gift for the musician and the dancer.

- Whoa oh, what is it?

- The Gibsonian Lyre-Axe guitar

designed by Mr. Jimmy Hendrix.

No. Yes.

Only three prototypes were ever built and it comes complete

with this mini electronic interface system.

Huh? Huh?

- When did Hendrix do this?

- Ah, well, right before Jimmy died.

So the story goes, he got together with this guy,

Mr. Paisley Pattern.

Their objective was to create

the ultimate power cord machine

that would alter and elevate human consciousness.

But, but, but Jimmy died

before they could work out all the bugs.

Gibson never got it past the prototype phase

and then Mr. Pattern disappears with the design plans.

Poof. Spooky, huh?

So who knows what this will do

in the hands of the right musician, and in any case,

it remains a collector's item

and should make a valuable addition

to your family home entertainment center.

So fire it up, bubula.

Let's see what you can do.

Jim Bakker. Line three.

- A bit early, aren't you?

Please go down the hall to room 3A.

EBN. We bring good things to death.

- [Announcer] William Casey,

please bring your files to debriefing,

William Casey to debriefing.

(shredder whirring)

(knuckles rapping)

(golf ball clacking)

- [Orpheus's Dad] Just leave it on the counter please.

- Okay but first I've got a question.

- What's that?

Orpheus? - Dad?

- Unfortunate to see you.

You better get in here, son.

- What are you doing here?

- Working for the network son.

We shred the memory files of the the new arrivals

before they go up river to PTR.

- What? - When people come here,

they get shredded so that when they get reborn again,

they don't remember anything about their past lives.

It's kind of sad to get reborn, go out,

and make the same mistakes all over.

What can I tell you? The system sucks.

- Well, how do you know all this?

- Some of us have had the good fortune

to become members of the club.

Your mother and I before we can retire

to the Elysium Fields Golf and Country Club,

we have to put in some time for the network.

Well, son, gimme your papers.

- Hold on. I'm not dead.

- You are always so impetuous.

Look on the positive side.

You're better off not having a memory around here.

Remembering around here only makes it worse.

- But wait a minute. I just got married.

I'm not supposed to be here and neither is my wife.

- Don't worry, this won't hurt.

- Wait.

- What is this? - Mother?

- Orpheus!

- Mother, don't let dad shred my memory.

- What?

- I just came here to find my wife,

We just got married.

- Oh dear. That's terrible.

Who is the lucky girl?

- Her name's Eurydice.

- Oh dear, well, unfortunately,

now everyone who comes here has to let go of their memory.

- We wouldn't wanna let you go free

and you got caught and your mother and I'd be subjected

to a hundred thousand years of word processing.

Do you wanna put your mother through that type of hell?

I'm not willing to risk that.

This Eurydice, she's only a dream.

- A dream. That's right.

That's why I need to find her.

- You're always trying to buck the system, aren't you?

Where do you think he learned that?

- Look, I'm just trying to find Eurydice.

If you know where she is, help me.

- Wait a minute.

I have an idea.

What if we selectively shred only the papers

that deal with his memory of us?

If he has no memory of us, they can't trace it.

- Eh. - Hurry it up in there.

- Hold on. We're trying to fix the feeder.

All right. Gimme your papers.

For God's sakes. Don't be careless out there.

Goodbye son.

(shredder whirring) (suspenseful music)

- Oh, excuse me. I'm looking for a woman.

Her name's Eurydice, she's a dancer.

- Dancer, huh?

Try the hall on your right last door.

Do I know you?

- No. - No.

- Okay. Fiberglass Performance ensemble.

10 minutes.

Hey man, save it.

So what's your trip?

- I'm trying to find someone.

- Well, that's very nice to know,

but what are you going to do on stage?

- I'm not gonna do anything on stage.

I'm just trying to find Eurydice.

- I don't know who you're talking about,

but if you're not in the show,

you're not supposed to be here.

- Look, I'm just trying to find my wife.

I was told she was down here.

She's a dancer.

- Hey, I don't care who she is.

I think you better go now.

- Woo-hoo. Mr. Producer, just one moment, please,

It is clear you are not supposed to be here,

but you are a musician, are you not?

- Yeah.

- Well, if you wish to stay, why don't you play?

- Okay. Sparky, what's it gonna be?

(upbeat acapella music)

(crowd sighing) (hosts clapping)

- Praise the ray.

Thank you very much.

That was completely dull,

My fellow vapors, we will continue with more

on the Euthanasia Network after these messages.

- Lou, from the Euthanasia Broadcast Network PTR presents

the traveling ray,

now brothers and sisters,

you can take the microwave gospel wherever you go,

to work, to school, even on vacation,

and eventually friends

it will save you thousands of dollars

because the more you watch, the less you move.

The traveling ray comes complete with Evian batteries

and the handy carrying case.

Friends don't live a day without the ray.

That does feel good.

Order now our toll free operators are standing by.

- Okay, let's get you set up.

(Persephone whispering indistinctly)

- Our next performance is for a very special guest.

He has just arrived from the other side of our microwaves

to perform on a Gibsonian Lyre-Axe.

Please welcome Orpheus.

(crowd clapping)

(guitar clicking)

(upbeat electronic music)

(upbeat rock music)

(upbeat rock music continues)

- It's art, dear.

(upbeat rock music continues)

- Pass to control, fade to black. Now!

Superimposed maximum hypno force and cut to commercial.

Now!

No doubt we are losing thousands of Euros every second.

Come on. Go. (rock music continues)

We work eternal hours sedating.

What kind of stunt are you trying to pull?

- I'm not trying to pull anything.

- Oh, come on, dear, would you please lighten up?

- How did you get in here?

- I don't know.

I came here because I'm looking for Eurydice.

I was told I could find her here.

- Well, isn't that the pits, her being here.

And for that matter, you being here is inevitable.

So why fight it?

- If it's inevitable why don't you let us outta here?

We'll be back soon enough.

- So you want to intervene with destiny?

I don't think so.

- Dear would you please come here a moment.

Why are you being such a hard ass?

This is love and devotion.

You can make any rule you want.

So why don't you just have a little charity.

- Charity. Are you serious?

- Yes. You let me go on summer vacations.

- Dear you are really too avant garde.

First you want this guy to play,

now you want him to live with this woman?

- Just this once.

- Okay, but they won't have carte blanc.

Well, sonny boy, this is your lucky day.

Persephone seems to feel that you deserve

a chance to live here with your wife.

You know you've been such a pain in the red

I'm inclined to agree with her.

So you may leave, but there is one condition.

- Hades we're on in 10 seconds.

We better get back on stage.

- Okay? - Yeah.

- Here we go.

(unsettling music)

Welcome back.

With that obnoxious performance,

Orpheus is qualified to play a new PTR game.

Don't look back.

The contestant may leave the Euthanasia Network

with his bride if he can do it without looking back at her.

If he succeeds, it's an all expense paid honeymoon vacation

for two to the Gray Zone.

(crowd clapping)

Are you ready to play? - You bet.

- As you leave, Eurydice will follow behind you,

but you must never look back at her

until you have both completed your exit.

Understand?

- You bet.

- And remember, don't look back.

(lighter clicking)

- You bet. (somber music)

- You are one lucky sucker.

- Gee, thanks a lot. Is she there?

- Why don't you turn around and find out?

- Very funny. Eurydice are you there?

- I'm here. - Let's go.

(somber music continues)

- See you soon.

(somber music continues) (door slams)

- Eurydice?

(door slamming) (dramatic music)

(somber rock music)

- [Axel] it was all a big setup.

Even if Scratch hadn't blown it by yelling at Orpheus,

these Euthanasia people knew what they were doing.

After the disaster at the wedding

and his performance on the PTR show,

Orpheus became kind of famous in the zone.

He didn't give a shit and we hardly ever saw him,

but every once in a while we would get him out

for a cruise in a garage we called Devo.

(wheels clattering)

You can take a look at 'em, What's it gonna hurt?

The yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

They used to be called the Shredders.

They're now Orpheus and the Shredders, and right Leon,

the same guy that was in Euthanasia Network last year

and lived to tell the tale, okay?

And Leon, look, that translates into mystique.

Okay? Alchemy lesson.

Mystique in the publicity. Publicity into Greenbacks.

Okay. No, no, no Leon.

Isolated occurrence Leon, he's fine.

No, no. Leon, you're blowing smoke.

I know you do not have a warmup for Raging Mucus.

No, Leon, they would be terrific in the condo.

Don't put me on hold.

I hate your guts.

(wheels clattering)

- Hey, let's check this one out.

- You're not going in there. - Why not?

- 'Cause it's not cool. It's not rad.

It's the pits. - What do you mean?

- Guys that have tried to escape this garage

never get past the security.

- Even if they do, nobody ever sees them again.

- I wanna check it out. - Hey, don't be a jerk.

That garage is the stairway to hell.

It's a hamburger inferno.

It's the final thrash. It's a goddamn piece of shit.

It's a piece of shit. - Take it easy.

Come on, take a blow.

Do us all a favor. Don't get him started.

- Look, I just want to check it out.

- Where do you think I got this?

- Even if you get in there,

you're gonna need a special deck and wheels

that can shred it.

- [Orpheus] Where can I find that set up?

- Find it? Shit man you don't find it, it finds you.

(board clacking) (wheels rattling)

- Folks, next entree is the Gray Zone's ultimate grinders.

Orpheus and the Shredders!

Yeah, let's do some shit. Yeah!

(crowd cheering)

- All right, thank you.

Some things just can't be said.

They won't be whistled either, but we're gonna play it.

Bingo. Real carbohydrates.

What a deal. - Let's go dip brain.

(rock music continues) (wheels clattering)

- When are you going to get that thing fixed.

- Soon.

- Well, I wish you would.

It's screwing us up. - Probably needs batteries.

- Muy bueno muchachos, muy bueno.

Thank you.

Thank you, thank you.

All right Orpheus better late than never, huh?

- Right. - Right.

Look, I wanna talk to you about a real sweetheart of a gig

I got cooking.

I have an audition lined up for you to play for,

get this, carcinoma dance, sweetness, huh?

- Right.

- Look, shit man, busted my ass to get you this audition.

Now these people are interested.

They're comers with damn good money.

It's a chance for you to meet some tres importante people.

Okay nice babe. Jesus.

(Orpheus sighs)

Look it's a nice alternative to thrashing yourself,

don't you think?

(object snapping)

Look, dipwad, your ass had been dragging around.

It's getting really boring.

- Get outta my trench, man.

- No problem.

It's the old Showbox Ballroom, Tuesday night at nine.

Okay, 9:00 pm, Orpheus, they're professionals.

They don't got a permit, so they gotta sneak in.

Promptly if you can, please? - Tuesday at nine.

(Linus stomping) (rock music)

(rock music continues)

(rock music continues)

- Hey Orpheus! - Hey.

- It looks like the skate Pirates have scored again,

- Here.

- Thanks.

- Hey, how'd the show go?

- We peeled some paint off the walls.

- Hey, did you get me that tape?

- Oh yeah.

Just so happens you're in luck.

Greatest hits. Maximum volume,

- Alright, thanks.

- We're just not getting the performance

we need from this woman. - Mhm.

- I think we have to get that musician back.

- Mhm.

- There's got to be a way.

- [Producer] Hm.

I've got just the thing. (peaceful music continues)

(producer blowing) (unsettling music)

(Orpheus gasping) (rock music)

(objects clattering)

- Man, hey man, Fred, come on,

We're talking to someone with major Marky value.

The guy is cult legend around here.

Truck him in from suburbia, Man, Fred, don't think small.

We're gonna get kiss, kiss, kiss coverage,

print, radio, television.

Let's go for the tri-state area,

All right and, and, and, and Manny,

let's not let a few percentage points get in the way okay?

I mean, Manny, we both got overhead, right?

Hold on a second. What is it?

- It's the production manager from that dance company

on the other line.

Orpheus hasn't shown up for rehearsal yet,

and they've been waiting outside the Showbox

for over an hour.

They're really pissed off and want to talk to you.

- Shit.

Tell 'em I'm right there.

Manny look, I got a little forest fire here.

Let me lemme call you back, okay?

Hello? Yeah.

Yeah.

I, I, I, I know I'm, I'm real sorry about that.

Look, I, I know he's a little moody.

Alright? Alright.

But his stuff is perfect for your show.

Just, just give,

gimme a half an hour to get 'em there okay?

All right. Bye. (phone dinging)

I'm out.

(Linus knocking) Orpheus.

- Screw off. - No way, babe.

(metal clattering)

So you've been doing some redecorating?

- Yeah.

- You're an absolute mess,

When are you gonna stop living in the past, my friend?

You gotta move on.

- Where do you want me to go?

- First to rehearsal, I'm tired of covering your ass,

I treat you like a brother

and all I get in return is bullshit.

It's all bullshit to me, man.

I don't know who I am. - Then get some help.

Look, there's an oracle coming in

on the next tangent shipment tomorrow evening.

Counseling, channeling,

neuro-linguistic programming, video tarot, she's hot.

See her.

- Maybe. - Do it.

Let's go.

(dramatic music)

(container thudding)

(truck beeping)

(Orpheus knocking)

(door clanging)

(electronics whirring)

- Put your hands on the screen.

- [Oracle] The lovers, tower.

Hanged man. - Hm, hm.

All right.

Don't force this one babe. The price is too high.

You've got an itch you wanna scratch,

but this little lady's in the rear view mirror.

Don't turn your back on the rest of your life.

- Life? I don't have a life unless I get her back.

I don't have a choice. - Listen, boo boo,

you're lucky you made it back the first time.

If you wanna join the pantheon

of dead skate rock guitar heroes, that's your choice.

- Look, just tell me whatever it is I need to do.

- Okay you might get what you want,

but it won't be what you expect.

Go to the river, wait for the smoke

and whatever it is you need will be there.

And if you're gonna go, go now.

- Hey, what's up?

What happened to your place?

- Just doing a little remodeling.

- You are weird,

Hey, this stick looks pretty rad.

Where'd you find it?

- Don't touch it.

I didn't find it. It found me.

- Well, hey, if you're hungry

check out what I scored dumpster diving.

Pepperoni pizza. Olives and mustard.

- I gotta go.

- Oh, come on.

Let's do lunch.

- Okay, let's do lunch.

- Where are you going?

Where are you going?

You're gonna try that garage, aren't you?

- Let's just say I got a new deck and yeah,

I'm gonna try that garage,

- Try it my ass.

How many times have Axel and Scratch said not-

- [Orpheus] I know what they said it.

It's dicey.

- Dicey?

That sounds like a meat grinder to me.

- Look, I've got the deck.

I've got a chance.

I've gotta take it.

- That's totally mental.

- True.

- Well, don't blow it okay?

- Okay.

Why don't you stay around and crash.

I'll be back in a couple hours.

- Mental.

(dramatic music)

(door creaking)

- Right this way, sir.

Going up to go down, sir.

Have a nice trip sir. (somber music)

(board clacking)

(door thudding)

- Five minutes.

- Now what, did they decide they needed an encore?

- No, new routine.

Remember him? (upbeat rock music)

- Orpheus?

(music intensifies)

- What's going on?

- Looks like you and the old flame

are getting back together again.

He just won't burn out.

- You're not gonna stop him?

- We tried. He's too smart.

- Stop him. - Too late.

- Stop him. - Chill out.

You get to be queen for a day.

In four and a half minutes.

(door slamming)

(upbeat rock music)

(dramatic music)

(lighter clicking) (lighter clacking)

- Well Orpheus.

Welcome back.

So you wish a try for Eurydice again?

- That's right Hades.

- All right Orpheus, then let's begin

the Eurydice Door Show.

(Hades laughs)

(dial clicks) (unsettling music)

- [Announcer] We interrupt our regularly scheduled program

to bring you this special EBN report.

We go now live to the Eurydice Door Show

already in progress. (dramatic music)

- Here is the deal.

Persephone is standing in front of two sliding door,

door number one and door number two.

Behind one of these door is Eurydice.

Behind the other one is your death.

All you have to do is choose. (laughs)

You still wish to play?

- Yeah. - No!

(door thudding)

I'm supposed to be behind the door.

- Okay Orpheus, it's time to decide, which will it be?

Door number one or door number two?

Door number one or door number two.

(crowd chattering) (dramatic music)

- One. (groan groaning)

- All right, all right,

we have a decision, door number one.

(suspenseful music)

(door whirring)

(crowd cheering) (dramatic music continues)

(guitar clanging)

- You're on.

(somber music)

- Orpheus, it's time to leave your body now.

(somber music continues)

Orpheus. (somber music continues)

- Well, well what do you know.

Together at last. (somber music continues)

(somber music continues)

(somber music continues) (unsettling rumbling)

(somber music continues)

(wheels rattling)

(suspenseful music)

- Oh no.

(water splashing)

(board rattling softly)

(dramatic music) (door clanging)

(door creaking)

- Going up to go down sir.

- No way.

(guard snarling in foreign language)

(device humming)

Hey, what's going on?

(board whooshing)

(rock music)

- [Axel] After Razoreus tried the Euthanasia Garage,

it was clear that there wasn't really

anything we could do for Orpheus.

I also figured that the network was going to catch up

with all of us sooner or later.

But in the meantime,

I figured we could have a ripping rad time

thrashing the network signal.

(upbeat rock music)

(explosion booming)

(upbeat rock music continues) (metal clanging)

(fire crackling)

Razoreus and Scratch wanted to keep Orpheus's skull

and at first it would bother me

when they would do these little rituals,

but I remember during the war,

I ran across a tribe in the jungle

that kept the skulls of their ancestors around

to protect them

in the belief that they would retain

the wisdom of their forebears.

And what the hell, for these guys, anything that anchors

a little meaning in their life couldn't hurt,

Right now these guys think Orpheus was cool

because he played on a PTR show

and skated the Euthanasia Garage,

but maybe someday they will understand why he did it.

(upbeat rock music)

It reminds me of the time before the war.

She was really beautiful.

(upbeat rock music continues)

Shred it, yeah!

(upbeat rock music continues)

(upbeat rock music continues)

Go on, yeah.

(upbeat rock music continues)

Remember Orpheus.

Yeah!
