Summary

Noah may have healing powers but he's still a fragile human. When you prick him he does bleed so when he finds himself pitted against a sentient spider-robot the side of the sedan it's going to hurt. Unless, he uses his skills to think outside the box to beat the odds which are securely stacked against him and Sara.

Noah and Sarah have been inching forward. Sure, they've traveled miles of underground tunnels,

0:08.1

but overall they've just been inching forward, progressing their story a little at a time.

0:13.3

Sometimes they've made great strides heading upwards and out, but others, they've been

0:16.8

forced to retreat deeper into the facility. But the general trend is forward, albeit an inch at a time.

0:23.5

You know, when you're moving forward at that pace, it's easy to lose track of just how

0:26.9

far you've come, how all those inches have added up.

0:30.8

Back in batch one, a few chupacabras felt like an insurmountable obstacle, but by batch

0:35.1

three, they're being hunted by a giant, sentient spider robot, and even more surprising,

0:39.3

they're doing well.

0:41.3

They've grown alongside their obstacles, which makes me think back to the beginning where

0:46.3

Noah postulated that their whole experience could be a video game.

0:49.3

You know, where their skill growth is being mirrored by an increase in game difficulty, And if I wasn't seeing all of this from the outside having the benefit of a different perspective,

0:58.8

I'd almost agree with them. It never gets easier for them.

1:02.4

No matter how dialed in Sarah is with her strength or Noah with his healing, the obstacles have always grown with them.

1:08.8

So it's with that note in mind that I'd like to revisit an important inch forward for Noah and Sarah.

1:13.6

Escaping Denver, Batch 3, Episode 9, The Pinning. It's coffee.

1:38.5

Thank you to everyone who wrote in with your theories.

1:41.2

A lot of you wrote about Stonehenge, which of course makes sense, but someone, a Steve S from,

1:47.2

I guess, parts unknown, he brought up a spot called the Gobeckley Tepe.

1:52.2

Hope I'm pronouncing that right.

1:53.9

It has the same stone pillars in a circle just like Stonehenge, but this site is considered

1:58.6

one of the earliest human settlements.
