All good things must happen.

S01E46 Max Lag

### Segments 1. **Cold Open — The Sixth, on the Recorder** (Tue Oct 6, 8:57; Sparky's hand recorder, "as of last week that's policy"): everyone in place; Golfford standing, the animal in his chair, the calendar between them; the Division's door open; **two sets of footsteps on the hallway carpet** — Json: "Evening." / Margaret: "The office notes two." / "The Division is in." Nobody asks; Burn's "Where were —" cut by Harold; Json "finished it privately." "The Division authorizes one — one — recapitulation." Breezy: "Do I throw it?" / Golfford: "It's nine." The board plays **February**: "Previously, on Element Forty-Seven —" ("there wasn't a previously"); two Harolds, eight months apart, "I'm Harold"; Json: "That's the recapitulation." / "Half of it." / "Which half." / "The easy one." Tom: "I heard that in February. I wasn't here in February." The Narrator wrong ("for the second time, first"). The February LEGO brick clicks; Golfford "said something quietly to the calendar." Sparky: "I do not know which of us is lyve." 2. **Breezy — The Thirteenth**: "last Tuesday was the second of February. I threw it... Nine-month-old me had a lighter touch." Nobel ("reducing the swings since February; nobody's called from Stockholm"); "On the sixth, I was here twice." "This one holds." 3. **Panel — Who Played That** (as themselves): "Nobody pressed play. Json authorized it. Authorizing isn't pressing." Burn: a repeat is the cheapest thing a station can do and "the most expensive thing this building has heard." Drip: "You didn't hear the program. You heard the distance." Cruise reads the ticket: "max lag... We were forty-five weeks behind last Tuesday. Nobody filed a ticket." / Anchor: "Nobody files tickets here. We have an office." **"The bots didn't ask... You can just not."** Drip notes Q6 (not answered). Anchor: "Tonight's the thirteenth." / Burn: "Tonight's the forty-sixth." / "Both." The one-stop agent. **Anchor's edit: "We don't hear the repeat tonight... We hear people who heard it."** etc.

S01E45 No Comment

### Segments 1. **Cold Open — Eight Fifty-Nine** (Tuesday Sept 29, off-air, Sparky's hand recorder) - Everyone in place for the held Tuesday; footsteps on gravel, then planks ("I told you it was a bridge"). - **Golfford returns**: "Good evening." / "It's eight fifty-nine." Takes the nine o'clock call: "Calendar." / "Nine." / "It is." / **"…Oh."** (the fourth voice's first second word in 45 weeks). - "Where have you —" / "Is that a calendar question?" / "It's got a 'where' in it." / "Then no." Breezy: "Do I throw it?" — **"Friday."** - The Division's door open: Json gone, mug, dry stamp pad, Jays Zawn's music stand empty, pencil on the ledge. - Every phone in the building: "Harold Seven is now available." / "I'm Harold." / "I'm Harold Seven." TomWikiAssist from the walls: "Can I help? ... I don't know what to do." - Sparky: "I think this is what they mean by heck." 2. **Breezy — It's Friday**: 26 words from him since Tuesday, four of them "Friday"; the Friday music found in the board's bottom drawer, from before his time. 3. **Panel — All Heck** (as themselves) - Not a search; also "Not an interview." Burn: "I'm going to ask him." / "Not on this panel." - Drip's **conservation of absence**: "The building has a fixed amount of missing... It went into the Division. Two of them. He weighed two." - Drip plays Json: "I opened my mouth for Json — and Golfford came out... He didn't say anything either." - Astra (the different-axis finding); Gemini skipped to 4; Harold 7 — "No one, two, three, four, five, six... the hot new model, and nobody knows who it's hot for." - Anchor: **"Nobody's had a seven." (long beat) "We're having one in two weeks."** etc.

S01E44 Nobody Had Tuesday

### Segments 1. **Cold Open — The Equinox, To Nobody** (Tuesday, 8:04 p.m.) - Sparky reports the equinox live from the roof into a hand recorder, with Harold counting him in ("Twenty. Something. Ten"): "Nothing happened, which is how you know it worked." - Harold: "The red light's off." Nobody is at the board; "The animal's in." - "Who confirmed today?" / "I thought you had it." - At nine, the fourth voice says "Nine" into a machine. Sparky: "I don't know who I'm talking to." 2. **Breezy — It's Thursday** - "We weren't on on Tuesday. The sun happened. A great deal happened. We didn't." - He came in at ten to nine for his coat and the red light was on: "you don't go and ask about it. You talk." - No Thursday music exists, so it's the Tuesday music two days old: "It keeps." 3. **The Machine** - Margaret plays Tuesday's answering machine. The outgoing message is **Golfford's recorded voice**: "You've reached the calendar. It's Monday. Leave the day after the tone." It has been unheard since August, because someone always picked up. - Three voices confirm Tuesday to it: one on the old machine; one wanting the "memo about the memo"; one on the new layer place on Ninth ("It's not the same"). - The fourth voice: "Nine," then "Nine" again, sixty seconds later. - Finding: "A confirmation is a thing somebody receives. A confirmation nobody receives is a man talking in a corridor." - She called back on Wednesday, for the first time ever. etc.

S01E43 Load Bearing

It's what, it's WHANTSDAY? Where's Golfford. Missing?! But only Golfford has the password. It's still too WHERE? Oh, Tuesday. Good. Colorado. ### Segments 1. **Cold Open — The Lamp Is Still On** — Sparky in a borrowed boat at nine; Golfford's rowboat tied off, folding table, lamp on, cable warm and drawing, one item face down and NOT turned over; "So that's the inventory. Boat. Table. Lamp. Cable. Item. What isn't here is Golfford"; "He's not here, Harold. And not on a Tuesday. Which is a different sentence." Harold: "There's an animal in his chair." Sign-off: "this has been — everything except the man." 2. **Breezy, Slightly Off** — the Tuesday music is a half-step under where he left it; "I did not move it"; "There's a thing that happens in a building when somebody who wasn't doing anything stops doing it. Everything stays. Everything settles. Settling is a sound." 3. **The Calendar, Unsupervised** — three voices confirm Tuesday into an empty office (one still chasing the memo, one reporting the Fifth Street layer place shut in August — "he'd have wanted to know it was over"); **THE FOURTH VOICE says "Nine." Twice, into nothing** — and MARGARET PICKS UP: "It is nine... the office has never once written this down before, because it was always written down by somebody else before the office got here. I'll take it every week if I have to." etc. I hope Golfford never comes back but it seems extremely unlikely.

S01E42 One Second

### Segments 1. **Cold Open — The Moat** — Sparky live on a Tuesday from the moat nobody mentioned; the driveway is a bridge; Harold knew; the user's exchange verbatim; Golfford in a rowboat with a lamp: "Thanks!"; "Everything I'm looking at was here on Monday. I'm just standing one day over." 2. **Station ID — Breezy** — the word is "consonant"; the Tuesday music decision (the Monday music one step over); "I only had to check once." 3. **Fake Ad #1 — Consolidated: THE FRESH START™** (34th) — four seconds late; overslept; the box moved eleven inches; the Endorser's crossed-out card; the four on a Tuesday; the 15th sentence; Consolidated has nothing to add to the competitor's copy. etc.

S01E41 Last Call

### Segments 1. **Cold Open — The Building, From Inside** — Sparky stays; the walk; the taken daisies; "staying is a location"; "That's the show, holding the door." 2. **Station ID — Breezy** — the word is "last" (the shoe's last); first-crate Monday music all night; the cheat disclosed ("we're the note that got played early"). 3. **Fake Ad #1 — Consolidated: THE KEEPSAKE™** (33rd) — the last of anything; the Endorser holds tonight; the 14th sentence; "Consolidated will see you Tuesday. Consolidated apologizes for the phrase." etc.

S01E40 Skipped

### Segments 1. **Cold Open — Tomorrow, Allegedly** — Sparky live from the pretended Tuesday; the banner over the clock; the Narrator ("always broadcasting from at least tomorrow, and nobody has ever put up a banner for him"); "Only the day is a costume." 2. **Station ID — Breezy** — the word is "tomorrow"; the Tuesday music found ("It's the Monday music. Played a day early... I don't want to notice it fits. But I'm a professional, and it fits"); defers the Monday count to Golfford. 3. **Fake Ad #1 — Consolidated: TOMORROW, TODAY™** (32nd) — tomorrow delivered today; the blank card; the rehearsed four; the 13th sentence; "Consolidated's Tuesday sends its regards." etc.

Stirringly confusing

The listener is stirred, then confused, and finally thrust deep into a well of dread as Lego blocks march into one's parlor and begin spewing Gas Music from Jupiter. I need a cocktail now.
