0:00.0	Hello, my friends. Here we are back with a new episode from our show, Trapped, Tales of Body Horror and Betrayal.
0:15.2	With this series, we had the privilege to work with five very different, very fabulous writers. As I've mentioned,
0:23.0	we are well aware that we are treading very delicate territory with this theme, but we tread

2:00.0	I ripped it from my very chest and sent it to you on loose-leaf pepper. It's a metaphor.
2:05.6	Oh, Dylan, I've dreamed about your metaphors.
2:09.6	You are dreaming now, my love. That is why I have this French accent.
2:14.6	Dearest, I have something to ask of you. Anything, Dylan.
