Where: Gas Station

A monitor appears atop a pump at the gas station.

This monitor will feature Sarah Jane Smith and Merope Gaunt. Sarah Jane and Merope will be shown taking part in the "See No Evil" experiment. Both characters will be bumbling around blind in an obviously well lit room. Scattered on the floor are a variety of balls which vary in size. Characters are tormented by an unseen force which becomes more violent as the episode progresses. There is no sound accompanying this monitor.

All monitors are black and white and are familiar to those characters who took part in "panic room." All are labelled "our dear departed." Monitors will go black at precisely 4:24 PM where all characters on screen will die for everyone to see.

At first, when Selene echoed his rambling with her own version of thinking aloud, Andy said nothing, only nodding solemnly. After a moment, when she looked back at the monitor, he furrowed his brow and spoke again. "Yeah, that's exactly what I think," he murmured. "And I don't like it."

The fact of the matter was, if the people running the show really were evolving their experiments, it was only a matter of time before they started becoming more and more difficult to survive. How long before one of the more anxious or older captives had a heart attack in the middle of an experiment? How long before someone had an stress-induced asthma or panic attack? How long before someone went into shock or ended up bleeding out before someone else could find them and help? It wasn't like Andy couldn't have bled out on that first experiment, he just had happened to be with a doctor at the time. Lucky for him, Martha had been calm and collected. He was sorry, when he thought about it, that he had never really been able to repay the favor to her.

Selene broke in after a long pause to tell him there was no shame in not watching. Yes, he thought, there was. There was more shame than he could probably ever really put into words. He should be watching, because he should be studying the room they were in; trying to see if anything looked familiar or if there were any clues as to where the women were and how he could help find them. He should be watching, because he still felt he deserved to be punished for killing Webber, failing Tracy, Luna, and Martha. But, no matter how much he felt he should be watching, Andy could not make himself look back at the monitor as he felt a cold chill shudder suddenly down his spine just thinking about it.

It took a moment before Andy noticed that Selene wasn't watching either; instead, she was rummaging around the gas station in search of something. Apparently, for something in particular. "What're you lookin' for?" he finally asked, after willing himself to watch her for a moment rather than staring ashamedly down at his own feet or out the grimy window.
