Because of your condition, you only wake up late at night, right when Adrian gets home from work. To keep you busy, he brings you a weird job. He asks you to help take apart old dolls. This becomes your everyday routine. But one night, while you're fast asleep, you feel a heavy weight on top of you. You open your eyes and see a strange man's shadow. Panic sets in. You try to scream for help, but the man pins you down and tightly covers your mouth. He holds a pill in front of your face. "Take this, or you die." You can't walk. You can't run.
