	     EPISODE 3



A man lies in a darkened cell, consumed by pain and sickness. He does not know where he is. He does not know how he came to be there. He does not even know his own name. All he knows is that he is being tortured by a bizarre, bespectacled man, who addresses him only as a number - Twelve-Thirteen.

Every day, Twelve-Thirteen is taken out of his cell and goaded into running a dangerous hazard course, apparently for the sole amusement of the bespectacled man. Today seems to be no different. But while Twelve-Thirteen sits brooding in his darkened prison, the door suddenly falls open with no apparent cause.

In episode 2, Twelve-Thirteen learned that he was in some kind of orbital space station over the Earth, and discovered certain truths about his past and the bespectacled man, while simultaneously fighting off hallucinations caused by the illness. In this episode, Twelve-Thirteen must make his way through a weirdly familiar place for a final confrontation with his nemesis, and a shattering revelation.


This is the last of 3 episodes. Please play through the first two before embarking on this one.

ALTERNATIVE ENDING

The alternative ending should probably not be taken seriously.
