Holy shit.

I mean, heck. [She bangs on the glass once, wincing.] No, I'm pretty sure it's shit.

[examining the walls really closely, still seems pretty calm though] Totally. But if this is their end game, I'm kinda disappointed.

From:

suburbanlegend

You know, I'd feel a lot better if you were freaking out, too. Kinda disappointed?

From:

324b21

Spending all that time and money creating us and watching us, just to do this? No way.

From:

suburbanlegend

You're right. Things could get worse.

From:

324b21

It's a trick, Alison. It has to be.

From:

suburbanlegend

See, I'd buy that if someone'd kidnapped us from our homes in the middle of the night, but did you see all the other people they ferreted along, out there?

From:

324b21

Okay, true. But what if they're all being tested too?

From:

suburbanlegend

...Did you miss the circus show out there? What would they test them for? I'm not saying you're the best example of normalcy here, but please!

From:

324b21

The same thing they're testing us for.

[Now she's going to have a think about If I Were Doing This What Would I Be Looking For]

From:

suburbanlegend

[That is all a too reasonable answer and it leaves her unahppy, so she's going to sulk now.

And give the glass a solid kick.]

From:

[Ignores that in order to theorize] Okay, so an experiment like this is all about the will to survive. They're separating us into four even categories, when you think about it.

From:

suburbanlegend

Four? The desperate, the suicidal, and the what? The Hunger Games enthusiast?

From:

324b21

The top 50%, the bottom 50%, and then in each category there's the person who agrees to die and the person who doesn't.

From:

suburbanlegend

Let's just agree no one gets to die and call it a tie. I don't see how statistics are a big help here.

If anyone's getting killed, it's more likely to be because we don't give an answer. Even if we take the rules at face value, we're better off.

From:

suburbanlegend

Right, right. [Rubbing the back of her neck nervously, she still eyes the knife.]

So what do we do about that?

From:

324b21

[Oh god, Alison and knives] Nothing. Pretend it's not there. Let's just work through this all hypothetically, okay?

From:

suburbanlegend

Fine. We can do that [for now.]

We better not touch it or anything. You don't know what they might do with our fingerprints.

From:

324b21

Good idea.

Okay, so hypothetically, if we were going to choose one of us to survive...

[shuts up suddenly because her brain has caught up with well it makes sense for the scientist who is studying all the clones and trying to save them from mysterious respiratory diseases to be saved ahead of all else but like hell she's going to say that out loud]

Alison Hendrix, that's me, is going to live. Cosima Niehaus is going to die.

We're offering the life of the person responsible for going after us and killing our... Sisters. Oh, and my new Prius.

Hmm . . . I'm afraid that you've been outbid. You have ten minutes, or I'll take matters into my own hands.

[You have ten minutes to decide how to die and to put that plan into action! When that time runs out, water will begin to trickle in the room from the floor, faster and faster and faster—after ten more minutes, the room will be completely flooded. The person chosen to survive will instinctively know that they won't have any trouble breathing.

Once the person slated to die is dead, their body will vanish, and the water will recede. With a sickening lurch, the survivor will find themselves back in the garden, with the corpse of their partner nearby.]
