"Well, most importantly you'll be letting a murderer run free." Sariel explains much to Ben's displeasure, "You've gotten quite the taste for blood, haven't you? I don't doubt that he was one that told you to kill us after the Rules Drone was destroyed."
"Cause it's what you deserve!" Ben shouts. "You deal with people's lives like cards on a table! If I were allowed I'd rip out your jaw and make the octopus eat it!"
"Such an obsession with what's in my mouth, Ben... I realize that we have caused you all quite a bit of discomfort. But... understand it was done with the best of intentions. We need living subjects for our experiments to be accurate. Machines are incapable of simulating the human thought process and killing real people is out of the question. Cloning was the most humane option." "Nothing about these games are humane!" Ben fires back. "Why do you even do these experiments anyway?!
"We need to come up with new ideas." Sariel tells him, "Otherwise we would have stagnation and with stagnation comes manipulation. The point of these altercations would be lost in favor of who can play the system first. For instance, a cop is the difference between victory and defeat in Mafia. If the limits of investigation are not challenged then there will be a reliance on such occupations to reveal themselves and lead their team to victory. For the mind to be sharp... it must not become complacent. That is the true point behind these experiments: Not to stop these Mafia situations but to provide more options: benefits and drawbacks to everyone... but not Jesters."
"cUlTs aLsO SuCk." clarifies Asmodeus.
"We are merely trying to do what is best for all of you. It is not a job many can appreciate but also necessary. We apologize for the pain we've caused. I'm not sure what we can do to repay it- NOT WITH OUR DEATHS."
Ben closes his mouth.

Sariel and Ben open and close one hand to simulate one hand clapping. Asmodeus, meanwhile, stares at his tentacles.

Meanwhile, Ben tilts his head. "I wouldn't call myself fantastic. In fact, my "role" doesn't connect me to the Fantastic Four at all. Much like you all I am connected to a fictitious world. Mine is known as The Running Man, where people are hunted for sport after a societal collapse." He clears his throat, "It's the knowledge they gave me of this world that allowed me to survive long after the experiment I was in. Otherwise those grinders would have finished me off."

Sariel and Asmodeus share a glance.
"We aren't sure." Sariel says. "If the world knew what we were doing there would be... quite a controversy."
"So you admit that what you did was wrong." Ben exclaims.
"That's not what I'm saying. We have taken funding from a variety of sources with the intent of stopping a Mafia epidemic. Most of them do not know what we're doing and don't care." Sariel reveals a picture of a noose attached to a doorway. The fact that there's blood on it... is an unsettling image. "See this? This is happening in cities, towns, and suburbias right now. When we told the world we were studying the ways this situation plays out they practically poured money and blood samples onto us. Publically people are asked a few questions about game theory and how they would handle Mafiosos in their lives before going home. When they find out... if what we do is seen as immoral then most will pull our funding and they'll probably... come to arrest anyone they can. If they don't then these experiments will continue until the epidemic ceases."
"So, yes?" Ben asks.
"I'm not sure what WE would do." Sariel tells him, "But given how we're being treated as subjects kept in the dark as well I have no idea what the organization will do after the fact. Maybe it'll kill everyone still in storage, us, and all our co-workers." She tenses up though Ben is unimpressed.
"Then we'll free the people in storage after we kill you." Ben suggests. "Problem solved. Your allies made their bed otherwise so what happens to them would be justice served."
"sAiD LiKe a tWeLvE YeAr oLd hAvInG A TaNtRuM." Asmodeus snarks.
"SAID LIKE A SERIAL KILLER THAT YOU ARE." Ben argues.

"Who's Sam?!" Ben asks.
He gets no answer.
"I'm... not Sam. Right?" Sam asks Asmodeus. He doesn't answer her either.

"You DO know who's been making us kill each other, right?" Ben asks the crowd deliberating.
"You killed two people that can't ever come back." Sariel answers for them, "Us researchers don't have DNA samples. At least we had the best of intentions."
"It's good that you won't come back." Ben says. "You WILL die when they get their act together."
"yOu hUmAnS ArE So oBsEsSeD WiTh sElF-PrEsErVaTiOn tHaT YoU LeT It cOnSuMe yOuR BeInG." Asmodeus speaks up, "iF YoU WeReN'T ReAdY To dIe, WhY DiD YoU AgReE To oUr dEaL In tHe fIrSt pLaCe? HoNeStLy."
Ben begins to sweat, matching how uncomfortable Sariel looks but in his own way.
