0:00.0 | I'll keep this short. We have a Patreon. And lately the amount on that Patreon has gone down. |
0:05.7 | While income from live shows and merch do obviously help, the Patreon is still the main way that we |
0:11.2 | make this show and pay all the people involved. Both behind the scenes and, you know, in front of the |
0:17.2 | scenes. Is that the phrase? So if you are able to and have not yet supported us on Patreon, |
0:22.8 | please consider it. It helps the show exist. And we have all sorts of cool rewards, |

1:57.8 | the sheriff's office. The family of Frank Chen is prepared to move into City Hall, gathered outside |
2:04.6 | our Norman and Don Chen, Frank's older brothers, and Nicole Chen, Frank's younger sister, as well as |
2:12.0 | May Chen, Norman's adult daughter and Lyle Chen, Nicole's seven-year-old son. This small crowd of |
2:19.9 | Chen's eye to the clock, waiting for the 3pm deadline that would mean they officially owned the town. |
2:26.8 | In answer to questions, they screamed, no comment, over and over. The only exception was May Chen, |
