0:00.0	Hello, friends. This is the first of four episodes from our final show of last season called Trapped, Tales of Body Horror and Betrayal.
0:18.7	In our very fireside way, it plays around with the theme of being betrayed,
0:24.6	let down, horrified, or otherwise trapped by one's very own body. This is a theme quite personal
0:32.7	to me, and I have wanted to explore it for some time, but know that these stories are meant in no way to be political

2:12.9	Looking good. You know, I don't know. I saw you. No, no, no, no, no.
2:18.0	No, no.
2:18.1	No, no.
2:19.1	What are you? No, wait.
