Broadcast dialogue

Broadcast transcript

“We've been getting reports today of some anomalous weather conditions. A thick fog has rolled into town, and visibility has been reduced significantly. We'd like to remind residents that fog can be dangerous, so please move slowly and carefully if you're planning to go outside..”

“This of course is due to the presence of the "Staring Lady". On particularly foggy days such as this, a woman with an unkempt appearance and no eyelids is said to roam the streets. If she catches up to you, she will ask you an unusual question.”

“If you answer incorrectly, tragedy is said to befall you. So, be careful today if you plan to go out in the fog.”
