WELCOME TO ANOTHER EPICAP. THIS ONE IS HUGE! Back again? So glad to have you! This week, the MDR crew is headed outside...yes, outside. It's all a part of the 'New' Lumon (Lumon is listening!). The innies said they wanted to go outside...so here they are! Lumon has deposited them in an incredibly snowy and desolate area around a place called "Woe's Hollow." Woe's Hollow holds particular meaning for Kier. He wrote about it in the super-secret FOURTH appendix to the handbook.
We'll get a look at this 4th Appendix and hear stories about Kier's TWIN BROTHER!! (Gasp!) Yeah, this all gets a bit soapy, but it's for a good cause. Got your snow boots and fur Cossack hat? You're gonna need 'em! It's time for EpiCap04 - 'Woe's Hollow.'
