Chapter 3: What psychological themes are explored in the narrative?

99.469 - 125.983 John Carpenter / Narrator

Finally found the giddy-up to return to Dante's Hellfire Club. But an expectation is just a disappointment waiting to happen. Hmm. So let's raise them eyebrows and lower those expectations and welcome Marcel. What? I need to speak with you, Mr. Marcel. Forgetting our last conversation, Boozy, what did I tell you? I remember, Mr. Marcel.

Chapter 4: What moral dilemmas does the angelic witness face?

126.404 - 178.416 John Carpenter / Narrator

If Boozy returns to Dante's, you kill Boozy. Then out of kindness, I suppose. You should leave now, Boozy. You're dismissed. You want to hear me out, boss? It's about your, uh, book club? I appreciate you seeing me, considering past alliances. Let me just say, Mr. Marcel, mistakes are made. Sit down, Boozy. You told me to keep an ear out for anything about the Triangle Book. I remembered.

0

178.936 - 205.739 John Carpenter / Narrator

I'm all ears, Boozy. Let me pour you a drink. So what have you learned about Book Club? I overheard this tour guide in the quarter doing one of them haunted tours. My interest in your conversation is already waning. Her name is Paige, and she was speaking with authority about them triangle books. Knew all about them. And so quickly, you have recaptured my interest. Proceed.

0

206.24 - 208.984 John Carpenter / Narrator

Just to be up front, out of respect, Mr. Marcel.

Chapter 5: How does Boozy's return to Dante's Hellfire Club impact the story?

209.025 - 242.828 John Carpenter / Narrator

Please, boozy, just Marcel. I am no mister. Just being up front, Marcel. This guy, Page, said there is no third triangle book, and thus it definitely ain't here in New Orleans. Only two of them exist, and they in Los Angeles. Now why would you build me up, buttercup, just to bring me down? Huh? Paige said there wasn't no book here, but... That's it, boozy. Drink up. You outta here.

0

243.149 - 258.852 John Carpenter / Narrator

Wait, wait, wait. She spoke with the... Gravitas. What? Gravitas. An old English word meaning a seriousness and importance of manner that causes feelings of respect and trust in others. I know what Gravitas is, boozy. Listen. Oh, I hear.

259.433 - 287.036 John Carpenter / Narrator

You tell Boozy to listen, I hear all. She knows something more than she was saying. I even saw her again in the car with- Really? Uh-huh. Paige Sullivan. Something Wicked History Tours. Saw her permit, wrote it down on my arm so I wouldn't forget. See? Maybe Boozy did good? You did very well, Boozy. Very well. Maybe Boozy returned here to Dante's and work with you?

0

287.116 - 287.196

Hmm.

287.682 - 318.007 John Carpenter / Narrator

Mention of triangle books and a stolen exorcism kit all in one day? Even for the quarter, that's strange. You heard about that? Well, of course you did. They say New Orleans is fertile ground for coincidence. I don't believe in coincidences. Did you hear me, Marcel? Maybe I can come back and work for you? You look pale as a ghost. Something ain't right. Did you put something in my drink?

318.488 - 322.492 John Carpenter / Narrator

Now, Boozy, what did I say about you returning here?

323.993 - 326.736 Boozy

You look strange. Shifting.

327.437 - 389.103 John Carpenter / Narrator

You know the first rule of book club? You don't talk about book club. I think you mean fight club. Damn, Boozy, I'm really gonna miss you. But I am a creature of my word, and you need to remember our last conversation. Why are your eyes glowing red? What's up with your teeth? No, no, no, no! Oh.

Chapter 6: What insights are revealed about the Triangle Book during the conversation?

453.192 - 463.886 Unknown

be that. Confirmation code verified. I'll be there with the quickness. Rush order fees apply. And as usual, I got dibs on anything in the pockets.

0

464.427 - 514.553 John Carpenter / Narrator

Yeah, good luck with that. Give me 15 minutes, then I'm gone for the day. Cash will be on the desk. Now, where'd that arm go? Ah, there we are. So, Page Sullivan. Something wicked his, his... Where'd the rest of that arm go? There it is. Tori Tour. That doesn't make any sense. Oh, something wicked history tours. I should have got that. I know that hurts. She should be easy to track down.

519.781 - 544.227 John Carpenter / Narrator

Nicky, you remember Ethel Licker and Queenie Labatt? Yes, we've met several times, my mare. How are the ladies of the Mystic Order of the Bayou? And where is Miss Lily hiding? She'll get here when she gets here. Her family and her business running a ragged, just like families and businesses do. We heard what happened on your tour. How you doing, Nikki? You need something to eat?

0

544.588 - 551.034 John Carpenter / Narrator

We weren't going to mention that, Ethel. What? The poor girl needs a nosh. A wayward breeze could take her.

0

551.315 - 552.116 Unknown

The other thing.

552.756 - 575.683 John Carpenter / Narrator

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. What did you hear? I heard you got caught without a guard permit. I heard something got stolen on your tour. Damn it, Ethel Licken. What? Sit your mouth, girl. How did you gain this information so quickly? This is New Orleans, Nikki. Everybody knows their neighbor's business. Queenie lives in the Treme. Miss Ethel Carrollton.

576.123 - 586.44 John Carpenter / Narrator

We are not exactly neighbors here in the Lower Garden District. Depends on your field of view. Eagles versus hawks. Oh, that reminds me. There's something I needed to tell you.

587.635 - 588.497 Nikki

What was it?

588.677 - 614.204 John Carpenter / Narrator

Plus, Boobie, it's not who you know, it's what you know about them. If all of this is accurate, what neighbor should I chat with about a missing exorcism kit? You should go talk to Miss Tammy. She runs the bar at the Half Moon. Oh, they call her the Huggy Bear of the Lower Garden. Huh? They also call her the Tamdlorian, and Tampioka, and... Damn it, that's a little... Sit your mouth, girl.

Chapter 7: How does the concept of coincidence play a role in New Orleans?

989.758 - 1007.883 John Carpenter / Narrator

That's usually my job. We're just sprucing up the guesthouse for you. All made out of cypress. And that's good. Shalom and blessings. Very strong. Won't rot. Plus, bad spirits can't cross upon us.

1007.903 - 1011.088 Host

Queenie, superstitions do not make for good foundations.

1011.488 - 1013.291 John Carpenter / Narrator

What city do you think you're living in, child?

0

1013.631 - 1014.232 Host

Oh, hey.

0

1016.676 - 1022.584 Esteban

Foolish.

1022.604 - 1028.732 John Carpenter / Narrator

Hey, Papa Coltrane. I made your groceries. Want me to drop them off before they get warmer?

1029.313 - 1031.957 Boozy

I didn't make no groceries. I told you to get

1033.203 - 1037.006 John Carpenter / Narrator

Hey, hey, hey, easy, easy. It's an unsecured line, Papa.

1037.287 - 1041.35 Boozy

Where we going? An unsecured line is the least of your concerns.

Chapter 8: What are the final resolutions and implications for the characters?

1711.827 - 1725.742 John Carpenter / Narrator

So, let's cut to the brass tacks here, Sherman. And here we go. Okay, what do I do and what's my penance? And understand, I'm really sorry for the MF thing earlier.

0

1725.783 - 1734.953 Unknown

Ten Our Fathers for that. And ten Hail Marys for calling them fools. And it's not a negotiation this time.

0

1735.372 - 1747.439 John Carpenter / Narrator

That seems kind of steep. Haven't I suffered enough? Okay. Ten and five. Ten and five? What do you want from me? I'm just an eleven-year-old girl.

0

1747.84 - 1751.288 Unknown

Fine. Five and five. Final offer.

0

1752.179 - 1753.943 John Carpenter / Narrator

I'd hate to see what stabbing will get me here.

1754.464 - 1763.244 Unknown

Go. Set your penance. But come back tomorrow morning. We'll sort all this out. And I have a feeling faith will deliver with the sun.

1763.745 - 1795.5 John Carpenter / Narrator

So go. With the blessings and protection of our savior. I look forward to our next negotiation. Me too, Father Sherman. And you might want to bring representation. I would have settled for ten and ten. Because I really want my friend and my pen back. Thank you for listening to John Carpenter Presents Something Wicked. Presented by Bloody FM.
