Video from Mexico

[Various security encryptions are in place to keep this video away from Soviet eyes. Are they successful? All Robo can say to that is "Hopefully." Either way it at least won't be easy for soviet eyes to find this.]

It sounds like everything is getting really weird up there.

So listen, I'm sure most of you want to stay and fight. Or...stay and support your knew communist overlords. That's great. If you DO want to get out, we've got room.

More importantly, all evidence suggests that your heads are getting messed with pretty heavily. We should get as many ImPorts out of there as soon as we can. Especially since some of us are, well, kids. Kids shouldn't have to go through this. We've already got a sort of underground railroad for getting people south of the border, and I've been working on transforming one of the apartments they gave us into a secure area for holding people who might not strictly want to be there.

I don't like the idea of imprisoning ImPorts any more than you, but we've got to get them away from the Russian influence before we can make any serious attempts at breaking their conditioning. I don't know what the US government is doing right now, but if they're not going to take any action, we're going to have to do it ourselves.

Good luck.

I guess the soviets are keeping a pretty close eye on them.

[bestever]

Fffff. Sucks to be them, I guess.

What's this train system you're talking about, though?

[mammal_robot]

Not a literal train. I mean we should just smuggle people out of there whenever we can.

[bestever]

... Then why the fuck did you call it a railroad?

[mammal_robot]

You've never heard of the underground railroad? Moving slaves out of the South in secret during the Civil War?

[bestever]

Oh! Uh, yeah. Totally. I knew that's what you were talking about. Shit, what kind of idiot do you think I am?

2/2

[mammal_robot]

ANYWAYS I'd say it's a pretty high priority getting people out of there. Last thing we want is having to deal with a bunch of reprogrammed ImPorts that are fanatically loyal to the Soviet Union.

[bestever]

Yeah, well. Is there anything folks can do to help from the outside?

[mammal_robot]

Mainly what I need right now is underworld contacts who can give us alternate routes to get people down here.

You don't happen to know any gangsters, do you?

[bestever]

Gangsters? That's a bit oldfashioned, isn't it? I know some mercenaries back home, but they're not exactly the type I'd trust to help with emergency procedures. If you get my drift.

[mammal_robot]

Sort of the "Shoot first, get so excited about shooting you forget to ask questions later" type?

[bestever]

Yyyyeah. Something like that. Usually more like... Setting you up to shoot yourself, and then questioning you about that. It's real fun.

[mammal_robot]

...How do you end up shooting yourself?

[bestever]

Well! You know! If you get tricked into it! Or something! [he is really losing his grasp on this conversation.]
