#7. Boom!

Conrad cannot shake Rafael and his attempt to make a trans-continental to a free Los Angeles. In an attempt to suppress the press, Conrad and his body guard conduct a guest edit of the Voice's walls in Astor Place, tearing down the articles of Natalie and her father, Bowman. This only leads to a backlash and Conrad is stuck with the association of Rafael and can only hope Rafael will disappear quietly. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

#6. Slick

Despite having explicitly rebuffed Rafael request to support his one-man trans-continental, Conrad finds himself linked to the project. Rafael uses Conrad's name around town and redirects bills for supplies his way. This forces Conrad to pay Rafael a visit in his garage workshop. He doses Rafael with the anti-narcotic Sanity in an attempt to bring him back to earth. It seems to work, at least in the short term. Long term effects, however, may differ. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

#3. Heralds

Big news hits the Quarantine and Conrad is consumed, both by the turn of events and the scene down in Astor Place. Witnessing a quarrel amongst journalist, he meets Natalie.
