He Told Us Something That Changed Everything...

"He Told Us Something That Changed Everything..." is a 26 minute video of Season 1 in the Project 863, which aired on March 4, 2021. In this episode, the team continues to talk to Syphus. Syphus wants to exchange information and he reveals that D3B was a real person all along...

Plot

 * After getting a text from Syphus, the following conversation occurs, it takes up the whole video.


 * Syphus is "S"


 * Matthias is "M"


 * S: I'm getting impatient, have you all found what I instructed you to find?


 * M: Yes, we found what you were looking for.


 * S: Well done, well done. And?

The team is wary of giving out exactly what happened, so they decide to be a little vague...


 * M: We found the tape you were looking for. There was a lot of medical ambiance, and screaming.

Matthias is a little upset that the tape doesn't really reveal any incriminating evidence. Syphus knows what the team was trying to do and responds with,


 * S: That wasn't all that was on the tape, and you know it. Don't play 'hard to get' with the information. What else did you hear?


 * M: First, before we tell you... is our exchange still on the table?


 * S: You really are desperate to know about the 863 project, aren't you? Did your little detective friend not have the answers you were hoping for?


 * M: Stop stalling.


 * S: Do not test me.


 * S: But yes, it is still on the table. Now, tell me what you found.

The crew decides to tell him,
 * M: Fine, there was a conversation on the tape between D and another man.


 * S: And what were they talking about?


 * M: Why do you want to know?


 * S: Frankly, it's none of your business.

The team decides to take a quick walk outside and respond,
 * M: Didn't you work with D? Don't you know how she felt about you?


 * S: Tell you what, if I tell you about D and give a name to one of your faceless sources of information, will that speed this along? An exchange of information for information.


 * M: I suppose.


 * S: I need a yes or a no.


 * M: Yes.


 * S: There, was that so hard?


 * S: D's real name is Deborah.


 * S: She was the head clinical scientist at Syntec through most of its life cycle. She's the one who oversaw most of the trials and experiments.


 * M: So, D sent us the emulator.


 * S: Looks like it.

The crew walks to Orange Base Warehouse,


 * M: She was talking about pushing you out of Syntec.


 * M: Saying that you where dragging the company down.


 * S: Oh, was she now? She hasn't changed a bit even now.


 * M: What do you mean?

Syphus decides to elaborate more on Deborah,


 * S: Deborah is talented, no one would question that, but she was rather touchy when it came to me. I'm not sure if it was a difference in opinions or ideas for the company, but she never liked me. She would speak more with my partner than myself.

Speaking about the partner, Matt tries to gather more information on the Co-founder of Syntec.


 * M: I'm assuming that was your partner she was talking to in the message.


 * M: He was saying he tried to talk to you. Make you see reason.

The crew walks further into Orange Base,


 * S: That does sound like him, always the peacemaker. He had to placate her often to try and calm he down from her ideas of pushing him to undermine me.


 * M: So this is something you already knew?


 * S: Of course, I told you: nothing happened at Syntec that I didn't know about. But, I needed to be sure for two reasons...


 * S: For one, a confirmation of a snake in the grass is better than speculation.


 * M: and the second?

Then the crew decides to walk to Red Base,


 * S: Think of it as my way of showing you why you shouldn't trust her, nor anyone working with her. That includes your detective friend.


 * M: This doesn't really change anything...


 * M: It just sounded like she was trying to stop you from doing illegal things.


 * S: I see that she's manipulating even YOU at this point.


 * M: What?


 * S: Deborah was a master manipulator, you heard it for yourself on the tape. All of those clinical trials that went wrong, all of the people that were experimented on, she headed all of that.


 * S: She's the reason I need that serum in the first place.


 * M: What do you mean?


 * S: I'll keep it nice and simple, I need those vials. And it's in your best interest to hand them over to me.


 * M: That doesn't line up with what we heard in the recording.


 * M: I mean the chat logs.


 * S: Having trouble keeping your hands steady, investigator?


 * S: You're avoiding the question... but regardless, if you mean the logs on the Apple II, I figured as much.

The team walks further into Red Base to discuss the chat logs more in depth,


 * M: What does that mean?


 * S: I mean, it figures that she would attempt to rewrite what she needed to on that disk or else, here little act would come to light quickly.


 * M: Rewrite? is that even possible?


 * M: But even D3B referenced you as a threat.


 * S: You're not being serious, are you?


 * M: What?


 * S: You do realize what D3B stands for, right?


 * M: Some type of AI that D wrote?


 * S: D3B is Deb. Not some AI, not a fortune teller, that is Deborah.
