TURBO: Your friend. Your entertainment!

person2:

We're going over to our colleagues at Triple-N.

person3:

This is Triple-N.
We're going straight to Kentucky for this developing story.
Kirsty Cormick, are you there?

person4:

I am Joan. It's 48 hours since this all began.
A community laid low with an unknown illness.
A military perimeter set up almost overnight.
Then the rumors of civilian confusion and bizarre activity within the zone.
There are helicopters overhead, scientists in hazmat suits...
This county has been split in two, and folk are scared.

person2:

My daughter and my grandchildren are in there!
I was staying at my fella's and... I was gonna go back but...
Phones are still out.
What's going on in there?
What's so bad they can't even pick up the phone?

person3:

Well further to that interview...
Knox Telecommunications claim the lines are down for long-planned improvement works.
Terrible timing, or something more?
You'll find out here...
... on Triple-N


Time: 06:0011:30

person1:

TURBO: Your friend. Your entertainment!

person2:

We're still broadcasting alongside colleagues at Triple-N...
...on the developing situation in Kentucky.

person1:

Judge Matt Hass - on Triple-N!
The voice of reason!

person2:

So what is it? I'm no scientist...
I didn't listen in class. Too busy on the Football field.
We know folks are ill.
We know it's widespread.
We know no-one could get out while the soldiers rolled on in.
We know they're back on their feet, but we also know there's confusion.
I'd be confused too, if I woke up and someone had built a military cordon round me!
But they've got scientists to talk to now. Guys in chemical suits.
They've got the best in the business. Heck, the world...
... in there to fix this whole thing up.
So let's support our boys, people.
This thing, let's call it 'The Knox Event', feels like a powder keg.
Too many people shouting 'conspiracy', hearing unverified gunshots.
No situation is perfect people.
This is a war. A war on whatever this thing is.
And, together, it is a war the United States will win.

person1:

That was Judge Matt Hass. Good evening, you're on...
... Triple-N.

person2:

I'm Stephanie O'Donoghue. This is Hollywood Insider!
The Forgotten Element is the latest blockbuster to hit the big screen...
... and, as ever, Hollywood Insider had EXCLUSIVE access to the stars!
My name's Stephanie O'Donoghue, and I'm here with Cindy Craddock.
Cindy, I've seen the movie and it's just AMAZING.
How are you dealing with all this positive feedback?

person3:

Oh I hate it! No, just kidding!
I love it. Who doesn't love positive feedback?

person2:

The role was challenging though? Tough?

person3:

Sure it was tough. I had to really get into the mindset of the character.
Sometimes I'd just sit in my trailer and I'd feel overwhelmed.
I'd just cry...

person2:

Wow Cindy. And how did you prepare for the nude scenes?

person3:

I don't care about that stuff. It's just my body.
When you're there it's just another day at work.

person2:

You know people are talking Oscars, right?

person3:

Ha! Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
But if the Academy are watching! Go for it!

person2:

Cindy, the movie's great - and we love you!

person3:

Thank you! I love you too!

TURBO: Your friend. Your entertainment!

person2:

We're going over to our colleagues at Triple-N.

person3:

The Knox Event Exclusion Zone is STILL in place.
Officials remain silent on the impact of an outbreak...
... described as 'non-lethal' with symptoms of 'panic' and 'confusion'.
Kirsty Cormick is in Kentucky.

person4:

A strange scene here south of Louisville.
Roads blocked by military vehicles.
Barriers and fences once intended for use overseas...
...deployed around a no-go area deep inside Kentucky.
And dead in the center?
The small towns of Muldraugh and West Point...
... and the bases and training facilities of the Army itself.
I'm here in a camp of displaced families, and they're angry.

person2:

We just want to go home. That's all!
Why can't we talk to them?

person5:

What's the worst thing they could do?
Cut off the phonelines!
Do they want us to panic?

person1:

Just let me talk to my son!

person4:

Military officials have told us to expect a full statement this afternoon.
Until then this is Kirsty Cormick for Triple-N on the Knox Event line.

person3:

Thank you Kirsty.
Now, amidst angry scenes in Washington and a storm of Republican protest...
We are expecting word from the President, following crisis meetings...
...with experts from the Center for Disease Control at the White House.
More developments as they happen...
... on Triple-N.

TURBO: Your friend. Your entertainment!

person2:

Once more, we're going over to our colleagues at Triple-N.

person3:

Thanks for joining us. We have an announcement on the Knox crisis:
General John McGrew has confirmed 'panic' and 'confusion' inside the Zone.
With no confirmation of the violent scenes some claim to have witnessed.
But still no reasoning behind the communication blackout:

person4:

I am making this statement at 11AM on the 14th July 1993.
There are many rumors circulating. Many falsehoods.
This is an appeal for calm.
I can confirm there has been an outbreak.
The ailment is, as yet, unidentified.
It is flu-like. It leads to panic. It leads to confusion.
There is NO evidence of fatalities within the Exclusion Zone.
We are using judged and judicious force to maintain the border.
Warning shots have been fired.
No civilians have been harmed.
We must ensure that this infection is not allowed to spread.
I am in hourly contact with the President on this matter.
The no-fly zone will remain in place for the foreseeable future.
At this time, we will take no questions.

person3:

Are the General's responses enough for America?
Those forced to stay in Army issue tents around me...
... and evacuated to the North seem to be saying 'No'.
We're now returning you to your regular programming.

Reports are coming in of military convoys moving from bases and into the heart of major cities.
This is the President's statement in full.

person4:

It is time to face facts. It is time to settle down.
We only ask for your responsible actions as an American citizen.
I, personally, take responsibility for the perceived lack of communication.
And for the rumor-mongering that has grown around the so-called 'Knox Event'
At this time we have no reason to believe residents of Kentucky will not recover.
However, as the picture clears, and more information is made available...
... its likelihood is starting to recede.
We have been hesitant to discuss specifics, yes, but with reason.
The Knox Event IS contained, but its panic and confusion are not.
We wanted to establish facts, but public alarm has not provided enough time.
From 6pm tonight there will be curfews in some of our biggest cities.
This is for your protection. Please do not leave your house.
Please have faith in both our military and our emergency services.
I ask our journalistic community to report responsibly.

It causes panic and confusion among sufferers
Some of whom will then perform acts that are... un-American.
The initial period of contagion is over.
There is absolutely NO need for further panic.
Panic... engendered by irresponsible and unofficial reporting.
Sufferers are NOT deceased.
We ARE establishing the likelihood of discovering a cure.
At this stage the infection is passed only through DIRECT fluid contact.
This means bites. This means scratches.

TURBO: Your friend. Your entertainment!
We're currently with our colleagues at Triple-N who are covering the Knox Crisis.

person2:

This is Triple-N.
This statement from the Knox Event exclusion boundary...
... was recorded earlier today by General John McGrew.

person3:

First and foremost: we are safe.
America is safe.
Today we can confirm that, yes, the nature of the Knox Event is degenerative.
It causes panic and confusion among sufferers
Some of whom will then perform acts that are... un-American.
The initial period of contagion is over.
There is absolutely NO need for further panic.
Panic... engendered by irresponsible and unofficial reporting.
Sufferers are NOT deceased.
We ARE establishing the likelihood of discovering a cure.
At this stage the infection is passed only through DIRECT fluid contact.
This means bites. This means scratches.
My thoughts are with those poor souls behind the Event line.
But this is contained.
It has always been contained.
We are safe.
America is safe.

person2:

Meanwhile it's been a night of anarchy on our streets as...

Robert Johnson, you're on 1000 dollars! Well done!

person2:

Thank you Daniel. It is an honor to be here.

For $2000: your answer is 'A fish pie'.
You have three attempts remaining.

person2:

Bof. I think maybe... 'What is a bad pie?'

person1:

Lots of folk like fish pie RJ. Next try.

person2:

'What pie is bad... in France?'

person1:

I think you're gonna have to let go of the 'bad' thing.
Last chance!

person2:

'What pie has... fish in it, and I think is really, really bad?'

person1:

I'm sorry. You're going home.
You've been a great contestant.

person2:

Stupid. STUPID.
I hate this... Fish pie.

person2:

I'm Stephanie O'Donoghue. This is Hollywood Insider.
Today: Tinsel Town's OUTRAGE at the Knox Event.
Icon Jeff Madingly, star of Rock Paper Scissors, has spoken out!

person3:

Hollywood has been too silent, for too long.
We knew we didn't know the whole story.
We suspected people had been killed.
But these pictures? These pictures just show true horror.
I, and my colleagues in Hollywood, want to go on the record.
We REJECT the actions of the US military.
We are ANGERED that the truth of the Knox Event was withheld.
Yes, the infection is contained. But for how long?
That will be all.

person2:

Jeff! Jeff! One question!

person3:

Please talk to my publicist.

person4:

Back after these messages!

First of all I'd like to welcome FBI Director Anderson to our... meeting.

person3:

Gentlemen, it's a pleasure.

person2:

I'm sure it is. We want to talk to you about Hargrave.

person3:

Hargrave? He's old news. You don't have to worry.

person2:

We want him back Director Anderson.

person3:

That can't happen. The Paranormal department is shut down.

person2:

Then... open it back up.

person3:

Can I ask why?

person2:

You can ask, but seeing as many of the people in this room...
... don't exist, and neither does this meeting itself...
... I wouldn't expect an answer.

person3:

Hargrave is a fruit loop. He's a liability.

person2:

He's proven an asset.
We want him back.
We want to see the ghosts FBI Director Anderson.
His hunt is back on.

This is Triple-N.
This is Kirsty Cormick.
The Knox Event infection is spreading.
Is spreading fast, and it's spreading without fluid contact.
It came out with the infected over the Event line.
It's chaos here.
People are heading North to Louisville, but it's gridlock.
People are hungry, people are fighting.
And now they're falling ill.

person2:

My father... he's not bitten.
He hasn't even seen one of those things.
But now he's laid low with the fever.
I know what it is. I saw my wife with the same thing.
He's going to change.
Can we come in your news van?
When they find out they'll... you've seen what they're doing?
The others? He can't die! He can't die!

Judge Matt Hass - on NNN!
The voice of reason!

person2:

We've had word from our reporter on the ground in Kentucky.
It's spreading without bites.
Get away from your television NOW.
Lock the door. Get into the basement.
No-one knows how it's happening, but it is.
Keep away from people, animals... everything.
Purify water. Turn off electrics. Hide.
It could be coming from anything, anywhere and anyone.
Go get your guns people.
Disassemble them. Clean them, then reassemble.
Lock them. Load them. Keep 'em that way.
The founders of this beautiful nation gave us a right to bear arms.
Liberals have tried to take that right away for years.
I've sat behind this desk so many times, explaining the obvious.
Well, who's glad they've been at the range now - huh?
Protect yourself, and you protect our future.
This is it. We're ready.
God bless.
Good luck.

That was Judge Matt Hass. Good evening, you're...

This is Triple-N.
Bringing you the facts you need to know, as the Knox Event widens.
The Knox Infection is spreading throughout Kentucky, and further North.
Huge numbers of civilians are laid low by sickness.
Infected bodies have begun to rise.
These pictures show an infected attack on the outskirts of Louisville.
Isolated reports suggest that the infected are, scientifically, deceased.
A statement from the office of the President reads as follows.
Stay in your homes. Avoid public places.'
Emergency teams are en route.'
Mass movement on major roads will delay help being sent'.
The curfew will remain in place'
Meanwhile efforts are being made to curtail inter-state movement.
Key bridges and river crossings are being blocked.
We'll update you throughout the day...

This is Triple-N.
Bringing you the facts you need to know, as the Knox Event widens.
We're here with vital news.
As the Knox Infection spreads, so do the scenes of horror.
After twenty four hours the spread of flu-like symptoms has accelerated.
There are suspected cases throughout surrounding states.
However, there are individuals who are NOT immediately endangered.
We have obtained this audio recording from Kirsty Cormick.

person2:

I'm hoping you guys get this.
Duke, my camera guy - he's got the fever.
Everyone's got it here.
I don't know why.
Maybe it was just dormant, maybe we had it all along...
But everywhere I look I see dead and dying people.
Left on the street. Lying in doorways.
But I'm okay.
I need you to tell people that...
... I think some people are immune.
Some lucky people.
Oh God, I've got to go.
They've seen me.
They've seen me.

This is Triple-N.
I'm afraid we come with bad news. Worse news.
As scenes of horror unravel at home, shocking news from overseas.
Symptoms similar to those of the Knox Event have been reported in the United Kingdom...
... and in Somalia, Africa.
These pictures clearly show Knox Event infections...
...in Norfolk, England and at an unknown location within the Somalian capital Mogadishu.
I'm so sorry.
We have anecdotal evidence that a very small minority...
...of people may be immune.
Wherever you are though, please take care.
Take care of your loved ones, find food and hide.
Please don't fight.
We can do this together.

What is a body, without a soul?
Impurities aren't tempered.
Urges aren't controlled.
It's just hunger, and anger.
Maybe I'm reading into them too much.
Maybe they're just a blank.
Savagery without thought.
Murder on automatic.
The embodiment of death.
Welcome to Hell, America.

      -Don't become a couch potato.
    • The following line: General John McGrew has confirmed 'panic' and 'confusion' inside the Zone is the only line that effects the hunger of the player.

    • The line: You're way out of line Hargrave adds to the character's sickness and is the only line that does.
      -I'm a big Hargrave fan...
