hermit horror week day 7: season 9 or from beyond
Q: HOW LONG WAS SHE MISSING?
A: That's, uh, quite the thing to start this out on, Joe, I mean. When you said you wanted to interview me for an article about my role at Blue River Raceway, I didn't think you'd... Who do you mean?
Q: YOU'RE DODGING THE QUESTION.
A: And you're starting off a bit too strong. Seriously, I might think you're lying.
Q: I MEAN, I LIED A LITTLE. I DIDN'T THINK YOU'D ANSWER QUESTIONS IF I DIDN'T.
A: I can leave.
Q: I MADE FRIENDS WAY BACK WHEN WE WENT TO EMPIRES. WITH SOMEONE WHO WASN'T OLLIE.
A: I don't have to answer this.
Q: HOW LONG WAS SHE MISSING?
A: I don't know who you're talking about.
Q: I THINK YOU DO.
A: I think if I knew, she was dangerous. She knew how to modify memories. She wasn't safe to be friends with, Joe. You should--you should get that checked out. I mean, think about what a me who didn't care for you might do, and then, like, go to a doctor about it.
Q: SO YOU KNOW WHO I'M TALKING ABOUT.
A: I'm... not supposed to. I think she tried to make me forget she was ever there.
Q: HOW LONG WAS SHE MISSING?
A: Look, time is weird. It was after I built my base. Before the Rift. Only slightly before then, though, because time isn't the same on both sides. If I'd known that, I would have been more careful. Sent her better supplies, too. Brought my own memory potions. I wouldn't have just... followed you all blindly. Not that I did.
Q: YOU KNEW SHE WAS GONE?
A: Of course I did. I had to be prepared.
Q: PREPARED FOR WHAT?
A: Joe, she's dangerous. You have to know she's dangerous. I did what had to be done, after she got dangerous, and I did what had to be done, after she escaped. I was prepared. I knew what would happen if she found you all.
Q: YOU WERE GOING TO KILL HER.
A: Well, when you put it like that...
Q: SHE WAS NICE TO ME. YOU HUNTED ME OUT OF HERMITOPIA--
A: Hey, don't characterize it like that, you know as well as I do how much that was a game--
Q: LET ME FINISH THE QUESTION. SHE GAVE ME A HOME. SHE WAS NICE. WHY DO YOU SAY SHE'S DANGEROUS?
A: Joe, how much of your time in Cogsmede do you remember?
Q: I'M THE INTERVIEWER.
A: And I'm trying to tell you. How much do you remember? Did she show you everything? Did she tell you why she wanted you there?
Q: STOP THAT.
A: Because I know she liked to hunt people. That's part of why I locked her up in the first place. Tried to figure out what had gone wrong with her. You kept asking how long she was missing, and I, I tried to keep you all safe. You have to understand I had to do it. And--how much do you remember?
Q: I MEAN, I KNOW ABOUT THE HEADS.
A: Joe.
Q: MY BEST FRIEND'S CLEO, I REALLY CAN'T JUDGE ABOUT THE HEADS.
A: You have to know she's dangerous then. And she just let you remember?
Q: NO SHE DIDN'T. I'M JUST BAD AT FORGETTING THINGS I'M SUPPOSED TO. I HAVE A SURPRISINGLY ROBUST MEMORY! I JUST--DO YOU THINK SHE'S OKAY?
A: It's not that simple.
Q: DO YOU CARE?
A: It's not that simple. But yes. Of course I care. Of course I... Of course I do. I couldn't not.
Q: HOW LONG WAS SHE MISSING?
A: Since slightly after the Rift closed. I sent her a letter. I haven't heard back.
Q: TELL ME IF YOU DO.
A: Fine. I will.
Q: I CAN ACTUALLY ASK YOU ABOUT THE RACE TRACK NOW IF YOU'D LIKE.
A: I mean, I built the sign. What else is there to say, in the face of all that?

Joe Locke on working with Kit again this season:
God, it was just really awful. He’s such an awful person. [Laughs] I’m joking. He’s the easiest person to work with. We have this level of comfortability with each other that I’m not sure I could ever have with anyone else. He’s the best scene partner you could ever ask for and especially when you have to kiss this person time and time and time and time and time and time and time again, which never are fun scenes to film. They’re always awkward. But working with Kit makes them the least awkward as possible because we’ll just have fun and laugh and try and make it less awkward.
🍂Slightly vague spoilers in article so approach with caution! 🍂
