SECOND LAP. [rocket frequency audio; video from lake of rage.]
[AUDIO; LOCKED TO ROCKETS]
So... How come we never do anything fun? I mean, I guess some of you guys think explosions are fun or whatever -- and they can be! -- but shouldn't there be like, I dunno, a company picnic, or a morale-boosting festival? Let's face it, guys, as a team we don't have the greatest track record of successes.
[NOT THAT SHE...MINDS THAT...]
Even some of you old, boring guys gotta enjoy something fun! Throw us younger members a bone, here.
[VIDEO; OPEN TO PUBLIC]
Alright guys, I've got a question. And I need you to think really hard on it! This is important.
[She stares into the camera for several seconds, brows furrowed to show the seriousness of the situation.]
...You can only eat one thing for the rest of your life. Go.
[...Yeah, she might be going a little bit stir-crazy in her tent, today.]

[ that has to count-! and excuse u
u got something 2 say about tomatoes ]
Because I like them.
( VIDEO )
[Or are you just crazy for liking tomatoes...?]
( VIDEO )
[ although cherry tomatoes are an exceptionally delicious finger food . . .
looks like he's the third option though-! ]
( VIDEO ) disclaimer: i actually think tomatoes are delicious
Don't you like candy, or anything?
( VIDEO ) whispers me too
[ with any kind of food!!! inclining his head a bit, he wrinkles his nose, shaking his head. ]
I don't like sweets.
[ give this kid a gold star ]
( VIDEO )
[she's just. going to stare.]
You... You don't like sweets?
[SOMEONE EXORCISE THIS BOY.]
But you're a kid!
( VIDEO )
No— Not everyone likes them! The taste is weird.
( VIDEO )
[Though she can't argue against not everyone liking them... Apparently that was the harsh reality...]
Maybe you just haven't been eating the right sweets!
( VIDEO )
What kind is the right kind?
( VIDEO )
[She needs a stronger argument...!]
( VIDEO )
[ that's most of them and variations of them perhaps . . . ! ]
Not much else— It's always the same.
( VIDEO )
It's really good, I promise! Or licorice! That's probably even better!
( VIDEO )
[ gAGS i mean ]
—What's licorice like?
[ like, he knows it's sweet, but he's never heard of it . . . ]
( VIDEO )
[ARGH.]
Licorice is like, umm... [She reaches up and tugs at the candy rope tying her hair back, brows furrowed.] It's like jelly! Except more chewy, almost like a gummy, but not quite...a gummy... And it's not as tough as a jellybean. I guess it's also not quite as sweet as any of that stuff? Maybe the gummies.
Some you can eat tiny strips you peel away like cheese, but some of 'em are like solid chunks. Both kinds are pretty good.
( VIDEO )
I don't know.
[ wait— ]
—Is that candy in your hair?
[ WHO TIES THEIR HAIR WITH CANDY ROPE ]
( VIDEO )
[GOT SOMETHIN' TO SAY ABOUT IT?]
( VIDEO )
Doesn't it get sticky?
( VIDEO )
If it gets wet, I guess. But I dunno, I'm pretty used to it!
( VIDEO )
Is it all you eat, too?
( VIDEO )
A'course it isn't. I gotta buddy who thinks I'll die if all I eat is candy, so he tosses me a sandwich every once in a while.
