SOMA | The Meme Dump

Levon peaks out the window at the new arrivals. He has bedhead, is unshaven and naked. The photographer sees Levon. He scrambles away from the window into the corner of the playhouse. He pulls on his jean shorts.

Who was that?

CLEANER

Too early to be a vulture. The story was just published…

The Cleaner hollers up at the treehouse.

CLEANER

Mycelium!?

LEVON

This is a residence! No trespassing, please!

CLEANER

I think that’s the guy. Man alive. He’s not supposed to be here. He should have been picked up hours ago and brought to the safehouse.

This is a hot mess. We must work for the most disorganized company in the universe.

Is there a picture of the gangerman we can reference?

CLEANER

Good idea. Let’s get visual confirmation before we complain. I don’t want to sound needy.

Nick Steib’s digital assistant, LeoNard, appears on the Cleaner’s phone. She is holding a reference photo. It is a grainy image of Levon disguised in a bandana armed with a slingshot.

CLEANER

Could be him. Let’s confirm.
