Intermission - Jamie and Alex

"Holy fucking shit!" You and Jamie almost scream as the video plays some absurdly milquetoast advertisement for a useless shaving subscription product.

"Is this real? That couldn't have been real?" You say, sweat falling off your forehead.

"I've no idea- Social media!" Jamie says, as you both begin pulling out your phones to search for Emmerson.

"Is he on social media? I never added him" you say, not seeing any signs of him.

"Yeah he should- Shit, he's not Emmerson anymore," Jamie says as he flips his phone around to show your worst fears come true.

"Shit, that's Emmerson?" you ask, blinking at the picture. She certainly looks to be related

"Sure got the same last name," Jamie says quickly, flipping through their feed. "Wow, she's running with some 'former racist white woman on Instagram" description and everyone is just going 'I'm so happy for you and your boyfriends!'"

"We're calling Emmerson she?" you ask, still shocked and dumbfounded

"Well, the rest of the world seem to have adjusted," Jamie says with a huff. "If I knew writing 'turn Emmerson into a white girl who loves black dudes' on some random website would do just that, we probably should have been more careful with our wording."

"You don't say," you snark back as you notice the advert on Jamie's laptop has gone silent.

"Glad you could rejoin us for the final part of today's episode," the narrator's voice says with mirth. You both go quiet and watch the screen as the camera moves closer to the entrance of a public restroom.

"Now let us sneak a look in on how things are looking for our new protagonist, Emma," the narrator says before the video cuts to an interior shot.
