Jeffrey’s wife and daughter are somewhere under Storm Mother and he’s going to find them, teaming up with the crew to do it. What Franklin calls ‘a death wish wrapped up in a fantasy’. He used to be an engineer with a mining corp, now he’s a bundle of guilt and shame that Storm Mother has gotten her claws into. He’s educated, data focussed, still has a little flair for the dramatic presentation from his corporate powerpoint days, but he’s also exhausted. The crew are his last hope (and he is unable to admit to himself the futility of his search).
Side settings:
SIDE 1
It’s a meeting in an old bus turned office. You’ve got the crew’s attention, you need to sell them a story, make them realise you can help them.
SIDE 2
Your voice cracks a bit when you talk about your wife, Imani. You can’t bring yourself to talk of her in the past tense.
- male adult
Okay this is the classic image everyone knows of the inside of Storm Mother. Once you're past the rain curtain, which by the way, makes it sound way more benign than it is, you enter a vast windswept open space with a monster tornado in the middle. (BEAT) Complete bullshit of course.
Imani called them FCE's because that woman loves her acronyms. Fast-moving Cyclonic Events. To you and me - tornadoes on steroids. This now, is a partial composite of her radar images.
