Desire to Leave Amidst Overwhelming Feelings
Adelaide Gabe, I wanna go.
Gabe Where you tryin to go?
Adelaide I can't be here, I...It's too much.
Gabe You serious?
Adelaide Being here, it, um...It feels like there's this, um... black c-cloud just hanging over me and, uh...I don't feel like myself.
Gabe I think you look like yourself.
Adelaide Okay, yeah. When I was a kid, I went to that boardwalk with my parents. I wandered off. I don't know why, I just did. I ended up in that hall of mirrors. There was another girl in there. She looked like me. Exactly like me.
Gabe You were in the hall of mirrors...
Adelaide She wasn't a reflection. She was real. She was real. Sh-She... I ran as fast as I could. My whole life, I've... I've thought that she's a devil coming for me.

The Connection Between Light and Shadow

But when the shadow was hungry, she had to eat rabbit raw and bloody. On Christmas, the girl received wonderful toys; soft and cushy. But the shadow's toys were so sharp and cold they sliced through her hands and fingers when she tried to play with them. The girl met a handsome prince and fell in love. But the shadow at that same time had Abraham. It didn't matter if she loved him or not. He was tethered to the girl's prince after all. Then the girl had her first child, a beautiful baby girl.

The Tethered's Fight for Existence and Identity
Red How it must have been to grow up with a sky. To feel the sun, the wind, the trees. But your people took it for granted. We're human too, you know. Lives. Gave them hands, teeth, and blood. Exactly like you. And yet, it was humans that built this place. I believe they figured out how to make a copy of the body but not the soul. The soul remains one shared by two. They created the Tethered so they could use them to control the ones above. Like puppets. But they failed and they abandoned the Tethered. For generations, the Tethered continued without interactions. They all went mad down here. And then there was us... You remember? We were born special. Fate brought us together that night. I never stopped thinking about you. How things could have been. How you could’ve taken me with you. Years after we met, a miracle of life happened. That's when I saw God. And He showed me my path. You felt it too. The end of our dance. The Tethered saw that I was different. That I would deliver them from this misery. I had found my faith. And I began to prepare. It took years to plan. Everything had to be perfect. I didn't just need to kill you. I needed to make a statement that the whole world would see. It's our time now. Our time up there. And to think, if it weren't for you, I never would've danced at all.
