[Good morning, Strangers.

How do you all feel today? Sad? Confused? Worried? Well, that's not the Hosts' problem. You guys are the ones being stubborn and obstinate, after all. In any case, it's time for all of you to get up and start moving.

It's Friday. Maybe you'll luck out and everyone's alive. But there's only one way to find out.]

[LISTEN SHE WANTS TO HELP AND IT WOULD BE WEIRD FOR HER TO SEARCH HER OWN HOUSE

But okay. That doesn't actually seem all that weird for a furnace, but it does kind of seem important to note.

Are there any kind of controls she can check that would indicate whether it's doing anything it doesn't usually, or is it pretty much just Hot Maker?]

[strangerpeople]

[There are controls to indicate how hot the furnace is and when it was last used.]

[touchsensors]

[Convenient! What are they showing now?]

[strangerpeople]

[The furnace was turned on within the last several hours. Nothing more specific than that, though, so it could be 5 or 15 hours for all you know.]
