Exploring the Slums of Osaka in Japan

Is it streaming?

Oh, it looks like the previous VOD got

saved.

It got cut down to 12 hours.

It cut off the last 3 hours, didn't it?

Interesting.

So the 19-hour VOD did not get saved, but

the 15-hour VOD got saved.

Yeah,

it cut off the first 3 hours.

What?

No, it cut off the last 3 hours cuz the

VOD ends and I'm still in bed.

So it's cut off the last 3 hours after

12.

I'm not really going that far.

I'm going 1 hour away.

Same distance as yesterday.

Okay, get ready to go to slums.

Yeah, I'm wearing slum attire to fit in

with my slum brethren.

Let me clean my glasses.

I'm saving so much money from not using

the train.

I think we would have spent like ¥4,000 by

now on trains.

Okay, put the laptop on sleep.

Do my stretches.

My bum's less painful today.

Put my mask on.

Anti-sun protection mask.

Where is my mask?

Oh, it's there.

Is it back?

Okay, it's back.

I hope this pocket Wi-Fi is reliable.

Okay, I think it's looking good.

Do you think I should bring the sun cream

with me?

Might need it again.

Uh, no, I think I'm fine.

A hat would be better.

Yeah, but then it would ruin my lovely

hair.

Actually, I want to disable my lock screen

because it's annoying having to enter the

password every time.

How do I do that?

Uh,

How do I disable lock?

General?

Nope.

Oh my God.

Hey, iPhone.

So many damn settings.

Screen time?

No.

Accessibility?

No.

Privacy, security.

No.

Oh my God, where the hell is it?

Display.

Ah, password and security.

No?

I can't find it.

Passcode.

Passcode settings.

No, that's for a guided thing.

Oh my God,

this is the worst setting menu ever.

Uh, Face ID and passcode.

Oh my God, I see it now.

Use Face ID with a mask.

Ah.

Use Face ID with a mask.

Remove the mask.

God sake.

Remove your glasses.

No, skip that.

Okay, don't skip.

Okay, see if that works with my mask on.

I don't know how Face ID works without a

mask on.

Okay, try face unlock.

Hey, it works!

Haha,

cool!

Okay, you guys ready?

Got everything charged.

Got the battery banks,

iPhone charger, RED charger.

Phone is charging.

Uh, I got my pocket Wi-Fi which is

charging too.

And yeah, okay, put my shoes on.

Got a 1-hour bike ride.

I want to pick up some energy—

energy drinks.

Hope that old woman's not outside.

Now I've spoken to the old woman, I kind

of have to say hello.

Otherwise it'd be rude if I just ignore

her.

That's why I hate talking to people,

because after you've established a

connection, you can't really treat them

like strangers anymore.

Ah,

it's so nice I can unlock my phone with my

mask on.

Take sunscreen.

You need to reapply it.

Okay,

okay, Dad.

Okay, let's go.

Don't talk to me.

Okay,

ah, another nice day.

Feeling pretty good today.

So, about the bike seat, you guys are

saying it's too low.

Let's take it down here first.

Wow, it is a beautiful day.

Hmm, how do I extend the bike seat then?

What is this lever?

Lever.

I think I need tools to extend it.

I need a spanner.

Don't I need tools?

To make it go higher.

I think I need a tool like a spanner.

Actually, I don't.

I can use that little lever thing.

The hell?

This Lever is— how does it attach?

How do you get it off?

Oh, you use a lever to turn it around.

Oh, I get it.

You use a lever to spin this screw thing,

and then I can— oh my God, this is so

easy.

Jesus Christ, how high should I put it

then?

Shouldn't it be level with the handlebar?

That's quite a lot higher.

What do you think?

Is that too high?

Let

me try it.

Oh, that's too high now.

I'm tiptoeing.

To stand up.

This feels too high now.

Yeah, my legs were so bent when I was

pedaling.

Maybe

like that.

Oh, let's try now.

Your feet should be touching the ground.

Okay, let's try this.

Oh my God, that feels so much better.

Start the

plates.

Was he looking at me?

I didn't want to talk because then he

would know I'm a foreigner.

I heard they randomly stop foreigners, but

I guess I kind of look a bit Japanese.

So I don't really stand out.

I think if you're black, you get stopped a

lot.

I heard black people complain a lot about

being stopped,

and kind of like punk-looking white guys

with tattoos, dreadlocks, they get stopped

a lot too.

You gotta, you gotta fit in, blend in with

the people.

Then you won't get stopped.

If you look like a drug addict, then yeah,

you'll get stopped.

I remember a Canadian guy at the guest

house just popped down to the convenience

store to buy some stuff.

He got stopped by the police,

asked for his passport, but he didn't have

it on him,

and it was like a big hassle.

I never had those problems.

I get stopped too.

Oh, really?

How often?

It's weird, they— the police suspect you

just based off of your fashion and your

hairstyle.

This is so weird.

Okay, I think the bike seat is a good,

good height.

Maybe a bit higher,

tiny bit higher.

Oh my God, this is so much more comfy.

When I was cycling before, my knees were

bent at like 90-degree angle.

No wonder my knees have been aching.

This is so much nicer.

Oh,

Mr.

Meow Meow.

Let's go through the quiet area again.

I feel like I can go much faster too now.

Whoa,

I can go faster by putting less energy in.

It's also easier to start going.

Oh, shaky.

This mount thing's a bit shaky.

There's no way to tighten it.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

day 5 in Japan.

Morning commute.

I'm basically working a job.

Go in the morning, come back in the

evening.

We have a commute there and back.

Oh, Lawson.

Let's get some energy drinks.

That was a little warm-up.

Small warm-up for the main event.

What do they sell here?

Socks.

Energy drinks.

Where are the energy drinks?

Oh, here.

Energy.

Oh, they've got protein too,

15 grams.

Should I get protein or carbs?

This is

the equivalent of one rice ball of carbs.

I'll get both.

That's a good lunch.

Yeah,

where's my money?

Ah, très bas.

あ、大丈夫です。

Okay,

I want protein.

It's

like a yogurt thing.

That.

It's like baby food.

Give it 4 out of 10.

And then the carbs—

special energy drink

supplies carbohydrates.

Oh, it's damn hot.

This one's better.

It is grape flavor.

Mascotto.

What is mascotto?

I think it's grape.

It's like a type of grape.

Okay, that's breakfast.

Where's my key?

Oh, I put it in my trouser pocket.

Okay, back on the road.

Green grape.

Yeah, I didn't know green grape is called

a muscat.

Back on the road again.

Oh,

she's on the wrong side of the road.

Idiot.

Why do cyclists think they can ride on the

wrong side of the road?

I think my seat's too high.

I'm having to tiptoe.

Google Maps,

it says go straight.

Going to the slums of Osaka.

So my goal is I want to hit an interesting

place in Osaka each stream and archive it

so people can watch it later.

I don't think it's a big problem that we

accidentally lost the last 3 days because

that was like the setting up process.

Had to set up buying the bike, set up

getting the Wi-Fi.

Now we are— I think we're basically fully

set up.

This is where day 1 starts.

I've got my biking legs.

Growing.

So we need some ideas of places to go for

each day.

Today we'll do the slum

and Yodobashi Camera just be like an after

thing.

So we're going to try and go out and film

stuff live instead of doing a video.

I need to turn right.

Uh,

this car's turning right.

Oh, yesterday I was so dead coming home.

I was really struggling on the ride back.

But feeling pretty good today.

Oh,

this road sucks.

This road's nice.

Straight ahead.

Yeah.

Oh,

left

here.

Oh shit, I didn't go left.

There was no left.

It's okay, recalculating.

Oh my God, it's bumpy.

We got to go left here.

Yeah, here.

Really?

Oh, okay,

this is more like it.

Oh, oh.

I think we're going the farm way.

Now we're left, left here.

What's this?

Baseball field.

Turn right.

Oh,

my bum.

And

then turn left.

Oh, I missed the left.

That guy was in the way.

Oh, left

here.

It's really making me zigzag.

I think I missed the turn.

Why do I keep missing the turns?

Yeah, I missed the turn.

Let's turn right here.

Oh my God, it says 1 hour until we get

there.

How?

Uh, let me check the map.

Yeah, I went to the konbini already.

So where do we go?

Oh wow, that is a long ride.

We're going to Shin-Imamiya.

Should I cross?

I guess I should cross

and

then turn right.

Let's go down there.

Oh, come on,

so

much traffic.

Yes.

And there.

Nice.

Oh, what are they building here?

How do they know how to build a building?

It's crazy.

Imagine you're on a building team.

How do you know what to do?

They'd be like, okay, you're in charge of

setting up the scaffolding.

How do you know where to put the

scaffolding?

Ow!

Okay, let's, uh, make some progress here.

Oh, we're back at the pond where I came

last time.

The Sakura Pond.

Cherry tree blossoms.

A fly went in my mouth.

Oh, speed boost.

Turn right here.

The

hell?

Oh no, it says I went the wrong way.

What?

Recalculating.

Turn left here?

What?

Uh, okay, it wants me to zigzag left,

leftwards.

And then turn left here.

What?

Telling me to go back now?

What happened there?

I'm pretty sure it said turn right.

Okay, whatever,

straight here.

Oh, all over the

gray mill.

Japanese cemetery.

Say hello to the dead Japanese.

These people.

We should come here at night

and jerk off.

These could be dead World War II soldiers.

Heisei jūnana nen.

三月。 Hey, when's Heisei 十七年？ I think I was

born in Heisei zero.

So seventeen years after I was born,

which would be like two thousand and five.

Wow, this is a big graveyard.

Holy moly,

what a waste of space.

Could build houses on it.

Why did they turn around?

Who was making that weird noise?

Like, very

confusing.

Zigzagging to the slum.

I hate it when they cycle on the wrong

side of the road.

In Thailand, they ride the motorbikes on

the wrong side of the road sometimes.

Turn right here.

Uh, screen.

Turn left here.

I think I'll stay on the footpath.

Path.

Look at all this traffic.

Jesus.

Whoa.

Oh my God.

Oh, my poor phone.

Stupid

app.

I don't know why the app started to—

decided to stop streaming and then didn't

start resuming the stream, so I had to

open the flip phone, press stream again.

Don't know why it does that.

Okay, let's go.

Is that a red light for me?

I think yes.

No, I didn't fall off.

The app just decided to stop streaming for

some reason.

We just go straight for quite a while.

La la la.

Again?

You got a woman's bike.

Everyone has the same bike here.

Look around, they all have baskets.

Whoa, look

at that guy running!

He was sprinting

into the yakiniku restaurant.

Why did the Japanese man cross the road?

Yakiniku o yakiniku kameni.

Oh, I think someone's behind me

and they just heard me say that really

lame pun.

Oh, he's turning left.

Better stop.

Can I do a wheelie?

Used to be able to when I was a kid.

I wouldn't want to do it here.

I used to be able to do bunny hops,

um,

Lift up the back wheel using the front

brake.

Me and my school friends used to like

doing bike tricks, bunny hop onto the

pavement and stuff.

My school friend had a BMX.

Do you remember when BMXs were really

popular?

Don't see them around anymore.

Whoa, whoa.

Quick break.

At the red light,

44 minutes away.

I do like the red lights actually, gives

me a break.

Gives me a chance to rest.

At the tomb again, 3rd time.

The Emperor's Tomb.

Push,

pushy,

push.

Check the map.

I think they go down here, but I'm not

sure.

Oh yeah, go down here.

Oh, is that— what is that?

Oh my God, I don't know what that was.

It looked like a massive chicken.

50 miles per

hour.

Whoa, whoa.

Oh

yeah, oh yeah,

oh no.

That's some

good speed.

Yeah, it's a single gear bike.

I need to turn right here.

Multiple gear bikes are expensive.

They're a couple hundred dollars.

I ride on the road cuz I'm fast.

Everyone here cycles really slowly.

39 minutes away.

Where are we going?

We're going to the slum.

Yeah, it's hard going uphill.

Usually I just get off and push.

I need 1st gear for uphills.

And then can I turn right?

I don't think I can.

Yeah, they're going straight.

I'd get flattened.

Is this the only thing you're going to do

in Japan?

No, I'm going to go to interesting places,

but we got to bike there.

We have to get there somehow.

And then we're going to change hotel to a

closer hotel

so we don't have to bike so far.

I kind of made a mistake choosing to stay

somewhere so far away from the center, but

actually I didn't think I was going to do

streaming every day.

I thought I'd just sit inside playing

games,

but then I realized this is quite fun

actually.

This is way more fun than sitting inside

playing games all day.

I am a changed person.

Honestly didn't think I was even gonna

stream.

I thought I'd just make like a video,

talk about being lonely.

We're gonna leave the apartment in a few

days

and then I already booked Oh shit, it's

red light.

Didn't see the red light.

I already booked the next hotel in the

slum here.

We're here for serial drama.

Well, I'm trying to bang this

depressed middle-aged Japanese woman, but

she replies so slow and she's got a

daughter.

So it's kind of difficult,

kind of difficult to make progress with

her.

Oh crap, my finger's all cracked and dry.

I need to buy moisturizing cream.

My fingers look gross.

The knuckles are all dry and

cracked.

Actually, I think there's moisturizing

cream in my bag.

I'll get it in a minute.

Is this guy parking or what?

I think he's parking.

Maybe I'll walk a little bit,

stretch my legs a bit.

Where am I?

Ah,

holy crap, look at my fingers!

Let me look for my train.

No, I left it at home.

2 bottles of cream.

I had to get out my bag.

My finger's all cracked looking,

and I didn't bring the moisturizer.

Oh, it looks pretty cool down here.

I kind of want to go down here, but this

is the wrong way.

Actually, I think we could go down here

and turn right.

It's fine, it's a little detour.

Traditional shopping street.

Oh look, this is like a pharmacy here.

Maybe they have cream.

Where can I put my bike?

Can I put my bike here?

How do I say dry skin cream?

すみません。

Uh, I didn't actually want to buy

corticosteroid.

I already have.

I wanted to buy moisturizer, but she kept

saying I should put this.

What even is this?

Of course.

Oh, this is

antibiotics, isn't it?

I don't know, but if she said this is what

I need—

I kind of just wanted moisturizing cream.

構成物質、構成物質、配合成分。I don't know what that

means.

Hormone.

I think this is corticosteroid.

Ah, because she asked me what do I usually

put on it, and I said corticosteroid.

Multicosride cream.

I don't know what the first thing— the

first box she was showing me.

You have eczema, not dry skin.

Moisturizer won't work.

The first box said, um,

shishin, which is like a rash, and kaumi,

which is itchiness, and hifuin, which is

skin inflammation.

So maybe that wasn't the right thing.

See a doctor?

No.

You see what chat was saying when I was in

there?

Daniel flirting with the pharmacist.

She's probably the same age She said

there's 5 levels of corticosteroid cream.

The strongest 2 levels, you need a

prescription.

Put this cream on.

Dekisan VG.

What's that say?

Nanko.

I've never seen that kanji before.

Good.

It's like Vaseline.

It's kind of oily, like

Vaseline, but it's squeezing out the tube.

Maybe it works on my other handpox places.

Okay.

Well, I trust, I trust her advice.

Maybe she's a better pharmacist than my

girlfriend.

Japanese pharmacist versus Thai girlfriend

pharmacist.

I've got 3 tubes of corticosteroid now.

Hmm,

you have STD on your hands,

maybe.

You should get checks before you bang

anyone else.

Well, I don't think it's very likely I'm

gonna bang anyone, so I can't be bothered

to go on Tinder.

La la la la la.

Meadow Cafe.

Bar open at 8

PM.

Oh, thanks, Kale.

Visit Blood Bucket.

She lives far away,

north of Osaka.

Oh, look, high school girl uniform.

Maybe I can buy one for my OnlyFans.

Wow, this place is so dead.

This is like the old school traditional

Japanese shopping places.

It would have been bustling back in the

'80s or the '90s.

Oh look, I would buy

1,050 yen an hour.

That's pretty good.

Yakiniku.

What's that, $8 an hour?

It's more than what I'm making.

Check my hands.

Oh, they look pretty moisturized now.

Japanese high school student.

This guy's taking pictures of drain hole

covers.

Drain hole cover enthusiast.

Oh, it's got like a painting of a woman.

Look, did

you see the drain hole cover?

Would I ever walk up to a pretty girl and

ask her out?

I don't know, it's kind of out outside of

my comfort zone.

I'm getting used to talking to staff, shop

staff.

Maybe I can work up to chatting to a girl.

I don't know what to say though.

It's easy with staff because I go in there

for a reason and I've got a problem and

it's their job to help me.

But talking to like a random girl, what do

I say?

She doesn't owe me anything.

Go up to a random girl and say, excuse me,

my skin's dry, can you lick it?

Fix your speaker?

What speaker?

I'm using the built-in mic on the phone.

There's nothing to fix or unplug or

whatever.

Oh look, this is a gym.

Maybe we can go here for a gym.

Oh yeah, it's doing that.

It's doing that crackling thing.

It did this before.

I had to restart the stream.

Okay, hold on guys, let me reset the

stream.

Testing, testing.

Is it okay now?

Yeah, I don't know why it does that.

It's not the mic, it's like the connection

or something.

It did it before and I fixed it by

resetting.

Now it's fine.

Nice.

Okay, back on the road.

Need to find a way to cross

cross over.

What about the gym?

I went to the gym yesterday.

I'll go to the gym again maybe next week.

I'm not in the slum yet.

I am 38 minutes away from the slum.

I think I can go this way.

I kind of didn't understand what she was

saying when she walked off.

I think she was asking what do I usually

apply to it.

I got a bit lost there.

Why does she look like she's crying?

That girl on the poster.

Ow.

I

think I can cross here.

Oh, it smells nice here.

Are we there yet?

We're about 38 minutes away.

All this traffic is blocking me.

So many cars in ugly square shape.

Yeah, they're very popular cars here.

Cheap.

Um, good fuel economy, I think.

It's got good headspace, room, headroom

space.

It's got a good high ceiling.

I don't think I can go on this road, it's

like a motorway.

That's why Google Maps telling me to go

back.

Google Maps is telling me to go back.

Can I go along this big road?

I can go down this park.

Yeah, I can go down here.

Ding ding.

Yeah,

there's electric bikes here.

A lot of people have them,

but they're very expensive.

Nearly $1,000.

¥130,000 is like about $1,000.

Uh, there's no footpath here.

What?

And there's roadworks.

Can I go on this road?

Maybe I'll go back up here.

Through the park.

Ouch.

Where the kiddies got some candy.

Pidgey, get out the way.

Uh, my hand's all slimy from the cream.

Ah, footpath.

Oh,

oh nice, you can go all the way down this

way.

Wait, I need to adjust my phone mount.

It's starting to flop down and I need to

tighten

Tighten the nut.

Yeah, nice and tight.

Okay, you've got a nice straight footpath,

nice shade.

Things are looking up.

Oh,

oh, oh.

I think we have to cross the river again,

the Yamato River.

She kept saying kasa kasa.

I think that means flaky, like flaky xiên.

La la la la la.

Cross here.

Ha.

30 minutes away.

Uh-oh, green light.

Try

and speed it up.

I want to get to the slums,

spend a few hours there, head to the

middle,

rest a

bit, head back.

The livestream, Bob,

so we got some footage for people to watch

whilst I'm asleep.

Uh, why is it a dead end?

I need to go straight ahead.

Where's the bridge.

There's a train crossing.

Okay.

Turn

right here.

And then straight,

then left.

See the river again.

Okay, now we're left.

I think I'm gonna have to push.

I want to save my energy,

conserve energy.

There's no point wasting energy

pushing up a hill,

is there?

When am I gonna hang out with Pewds?

I asked my team to send his team a collab

invite, but he hasn't replied.

Dear Mr.

PewDiePie, I think it will benefit both

our channels greatly.

If we, if we participate in a

collaboration.

Yours sincerely, DJ Ordo.

I can cross here.

Who are you?

Does it say no bicycles?

I think it said no entry apart from

bicycles.

Ah, she has bicycle.

It's it said自転車を覗く, I think.

All the pigeons.

Mr.

Pigeon.

Yeah, we can go this way.

Oh, I can see all these fish in the

Is that

guy spitting out his window?

What?

He beeped at the pigeons.

My fingers are all oily from the cream.

It's kind of gross.

I think this is a one-way street.

That's why there's a no entry sign.

I don't see cars going the other way.

Let me check my battery, make sure it's

charging this time.

Yep,

100%.

Good, good.

Too much wind.

Yep, 100%.

Yeah, I need to get off the bridge.

Nearly there.

I think I'll start riding.

Oh, oh.

Oh,

look at this downhill.

Well, that guy has a solar panel on his

back of his bike.

You ready for the hill?

Whoa, I

can't go full speed.

These

red light.

Oh.

Not sure if it's lagging.

Can we go in here?

I can't get a motorbike.

I need a license.

I need an international driving permit.

These places are so dead.

It's like only old people come here.

What would happen when they all one day

stop existing?

Who's gonna come here?

I don't think young people want to set up

life here.

This feels like an old part of.

Old

Town vibes.

I'm getting slum vibes.

I think we're close.

I bet the slums are nicer than Bangkok.

I'm gonna get some slum vending machine

juice.

20 yen.

Slum water.

Stock up, get like 20.

Oh, oh, oh.

We're probably near the red light district

actually.

Must resist,

resist temptation.

Still regular neighborhood.

Looks kind of slummy, but they got trams

here too.

This is very old town looking.

Let me check Google Maps.

Oh, we're 20 minutes away.

It's just a straight line.

45,000 yen a month apartment.

Oh, this is the shrine I came to

yesterday— no, 2 days ago.

We're not going in again, already went

there.

Maybe on the way back I'll show you

quickly.

Is he going to the swamp too?

I didn't realize there's such a big tram

network in this part of Osaka.

I feel like trams are kind of like an old

method of transport,

old infrastructure.

What's a tram?

Like a train

with tracks on the road.

It's like an electric bus.

See, the top bit has like a metal thing

that touches the cable.

Providing power.

They should bring back steam trains.

Good for the atmosphere.

It's just letting steam out, isn't it?

But you're burning coal, so that's not

good.

13 minutes away.

That building looks so weird.

It's made out of rusted metal.

Why do they choose that design for it?

Very weird looking.

It's like fake rusted metal.

So I could take this guy so I can talk.

Oh,

this

road sucks.

So the cars drive on the tracks with

Typical slum road.

I've never been to those— what's it

called?

Bikkuri Donki.

It's like a hamburger restaurant, isn't

it?

I feel like I wouldn't want to go there

just because the outside looks weird.

These tracks could—

if I ride onto the tracks, I could fall

over because the wheel would get stuck in

the groove.

Now these grooves are quite deep.

If the tire goes into it, I'd be stuck in

the groove.

Boxing gym

closed.

Am I on the wrong side of the road?

I need

to charge my phone soon.

The iPhone

thing doesn't even last 2 hours.

Rubbish.

Oh.

No, we're not in the slum yet.

Nearly.

About 5 minutes, 5 minutes away.

Uh, no, I'm not going to Stenkaku.

I'm going to—

huh, where am I going?

Where is

slum.

It's kind of around Shin-Imamiya.

It might just be straight ahead and a bit

to the right.

Red again.

Yeah, I need to get a drink soon.

Getting thirsty.

I'll get some slum juice.

I don't want to accidentally ride into top

of this jetty.

Oh, police.

What's the police doing?

I am going to the slum.

I'm trying to find it.

It's around here.

The hell is it?

I think I need to go

to the left or right

because it's like tucked away.

That guy looks Indian.

He looks so brown.

Hmm, uh, check the maps.

Oh, I'm still 4 minutes away.

Going straight.

Oh, nice.

稍 等一下。 现在 的 警 察 啊， 刚 刚， 哎， 后 续 的 要 我 再 来。

嗯。

What the

hell is going on?

This place is crazy.

Oh my God, was

he

talking to me?

I think he shouted at me.

That guy's definitely shouting

at me.

I'm

scared.

I'm pretty sure he said something like,

"メガネ何撮影?" She's like, "Were you filming

glasses?"

This place so weird.

Yeah, he was like, "メガネ何撮影して?"

Jesus, first, first corner I turn into

here, the police.

Police and a drunken fire.

I don't want to go into the Homeless

shelter park upstairs.

This is where I came to make that video,

and me and Shiro went into this park.

I think that they'll get pissed off if

they realize I'm filming.

I'm scared.

They just sit around in the park all day

drinking.

It's like that place in Fallout 3,

the, um, the shantytown.

So you've got the main park over there,

which is where a lot of them live, and

that's where they hand out free stuff.

They'll hand out coffee and free food.

Should

I go left or

right?

Everyone here looks really weird.

Try not to make eye contact.

Which way should

we go?

So we just walked down here.

That homeless

This shelter park place is scary.

It's not a white guy.

I should ask the white guy what he's doing

here.

They're doing karaoke.

Go at night?

No way, doesn't look like a safe place.

Swamp.

This is the swamp,

can't you see?

Let me check the map.

If

we keep

Did you hear what he said to me?

He said "doke," which means "get out of

the way." I didn't hear what else he said.
