Dory Sief and her staff at LYTE,
the controversial
pharmaceutical endeavor
have barricaded themselves
into their workspace headquarters
in Brooklyn, New York today,
after scientist Benny Balthazar
fell out a window to her death.
Sief has denied access to the building
and is holding several
innocent bystanders hostage
while her staff mans the windows
armed with spray bottles
filled with sulfuric acid.
The hostages have been identified
as the former lover of Ms. Sief,
Drew Gardner,
the Grand Duchess and
Arch Duchess of Bellhead,
Winnifred and Beatrice Hamsdale,
and a camera man with no family
by the name of Vernon Ankles.
The Hamsdale's were
confronting their daughter
live as part of a special program
for the British network Satellite Four
when the event happened.
[GLASS SHATTERS] [ALL SCREAM]
Sief released a public statement
across her own social media
platforms earlier today,
outlining her agenda.
We've discovered a
formula for enlightenment,
but they're trying to shut us down.
So we've decided to take
things into our own hands.
Keep your faith in me, and stay tuned
'cause soon,
you will get everything
your heart ever wanted.

We have the building surrounded,

you're going to get out of
this unless you cooperate.
I'm curious.
Are you crazy or just stupid?
What do you want?
Let's be reasonable.
There's no way you can get out of this,
right?
Have you had a look outside?
You should take a peek.
It's a quite a scene.
We have a full militia.
We even have sn*pers all for you.
Well, I'm flattered.
Look, come out now,
it won't be that bad on you.
You'll get a year, tops.
And, who knows?
Maybe you can charm the jury,
like last time.
So what do you say?
Do you want to end this
before it gets out of hand?
What's out of hand
is that the human race
has been drowning in false
ideological structure
since the beginning of time.
So what are you going to do about that?
- That's a tough one.
- [SNAPS]
I don't know.
Well, I do.

here and say a few words
to try and get you all to come out.
But I don't care about that.
I need you all to do whatever it takes
to make that pill. Take
as long as you need.
- What are you doing?
- Hold on.
I am staying at a hotel these days
because I'm scared of our son.
He cut me, the entire length of my arm.
But I guess that's why
God gave me two arms.
Make that pill, baby,
make a bunch of 'em!
Are you out of your damn mind?
You are the worst hostage
loved one in history.
Oh, God. Okay.
Hey, Dory.
So we have gotta make this pill.

What you're saying is delusional.
Come on, Dory,
you basically k*lled your own doctor.
If he k*lled himself, and that is true,

But all I am responsible for
is sharing my own experience.
You need real help, all right?
You're a danger to
yourself and to others.
What you believe to be
reality is not reality.
You're right,
my reality is different than yours
and most people's,
because most people are
living in an illusion.
I know because I used to
live in that illusion,
but now I see the truth.
And the truth is that the world is sick,
and it needs medicine, Drew.
That's reality.
Then why are people getting hurt?
Because people are scared.
'Cause we'd rather be in pain
than find out who we really are.
Dory...
- I'm tapped out.
- I know.
No, I don't think that you do know.
Okay? 'Cause you're everywhere.
You're in my thoughts,
you're in my dreams.

'Cause every single time
I think that I get out,
I look around and I realize
I'm right back in it.
Okay? And it is t*rture.
[SIGHS] I can't help you anymore.
You're upset
because you want to be
strong enough to let me go.
You keep thinking that if
she does one more bad thing
then that'll be the proof I
need to know that she's bad.
But there's never
enough proof, is there?
Because I'm not bad
and that's why you
keep coming back to me.
So if you're gonna come back,

And, if not,

Oh, that sucks for him.
It actually seems like she

Nothing official yet but I can just tell
I've definitely been
