The MCC Manhattan CCTV cameras have mysteriously stopped working.
So... the cameras are down.
Which cameras, darling? You'll have to be more specific. You have cameras everywhere.
Not MY cameras. The ones at the facility. Both of them. At the same time. What are the odds?
Now hold on. Let me be perfectly clear. I have no knowledge of any cameras, any facility, or frankly any of the words in this conversation.
Bill, you're in the group chat. We can see you typing.
That depends on what your definition of "typing" is.
The guards also fell asleep. Both of them. Simultaneously. While I'm on suicide watch. Very convenient nap schedule.
Well, guards do get tired. It's a very demanding job, sitting in a chair and looking at a door.
I want everyone to know that I am currently at home in Chappaqua watching television with Hillary and have WITNESSES.
Bill, nobody asked where you were. Why are you volunteering an alibi?
I'm not volunteering an alibi! I'm simply establishing a contemporaneous record of my whereabouts for no particular reason.
Jeffrey, perhaps you should raise the camera issue with the warden? File a complaint?
Oh sure, let me just ring the complaint department. "Hello, yes, I'm the world's most high-profile prisoner and your surveillance system is conveniently offline. Could you look into it between naps?"
Now Jeffrey, I'm sure there's a perfectly reasonable explanation. Old building. Bad wiring. Things break down.
Bill, you sound very calm for a man who has a LOT to lose if I start talking.
Ha ha ha. What a fun joke that is, Jeffrey. A real knee-slapper. Please never say that again.
Boys, let's stay focused. The cameras. Who benefits from the cameras being off?
Literally everyone in this group chat, Ghislaine.
Fair point.
I want to reiterate that I barely know Jeffrey. We rode on his plane maybe four times.
Twenty-six times, Bill. The flight logs are public.
I meant four times that I REMEMBER. I sleep on planes. Could have been sleepwalking onto them for all I know.
Sleepwalking. Onto a private jet. Twenty-six times. Bill, even for you, that's creative.
Anyway the cameras. I've got a bad feeling about this. If anything happens to me, the deadman switch activates and everything goes public.
WHAT deadman switch? Jeffrey, WHAT deadman switch?
Jeffrey, this is the first I'm hearing of a deadman switch. We need to discuss this immediately.
Relax, relax. Insurance policy. Tapes, documents, flight logs, photos. All stored somewhere safe. If anything happens to me, boom. Front page of every newspaper.
I need to call my lawyer. And my other lawyer. And my lawyer's lawyer.
Jeffrey, please tell me this "safe place" isn't your former butler again.
No comment. Anyway, goodnight everyone. I'm sure the cameras will be fixed by morning and everything will be totally fine. Probably.
