Maybe it's possible for us to come up with a social contract under which we collectively pretend that floods like the last one just didn't happen? It feels like a lot of us enjoy each others suffering in a way that is inevitably going to come back around and make our lives uncomfortable at a later date.

Comrades, has anyone else noticed that Howie seems... particularly unlike himself, lately?

[Private to Howie]

Excuse me Comrade, I was wondering if I could ask you some questions about God?

Because you can't work yourself. Obviously.

What, you'd really just give it to me? I thought you were meant to be like my personal police officer.

I mean why would I trust you, Comrade? Even if I wanted to change my memories, if I let you touch me, you'd just... make me forget I was your warden, or the contents of your file or something. It would be terrible, Comrade.

It's not like that. I mean, I am supposed to stop you from doing evil things if I can, but I'm also supposed to try and help you when you need it.

Besides, there's no law against getting drunk.

Come on, man. I wouldn't do that. How would I graduate without you? [Pure, pure lies.]

Huh, so does that mean that you'll let me go to the bar? It's in the spirit of helping, right. It can only make me better.

I'm not buying it, Comrade.

All right, Comrade. You'll have to come with me, because you couldn't get in on your own even if I wanted you too, but I'll take you if you want.

Are you calling me a liar? I'm hurt, warden.

[Thinks about this.] Right. And you'd agree to keeping a few feet away from me at all times? I'm not having any of that worker business done on me again.
