Hello, Wade. |
00:02:08.061 - 00:02:09.596 |

WADE: I was born in 2027. |
00:02:18.905 - 00:02:21.441 |
After the Corn Syrup Droughts,
after the Bandwidth Riots. |
00:02:21.441 - 00:02:25.245 |
After people stopped trying
to fix problems |
00:02:25.245 - 00:02:27.447 |
and just tried
to outlive them. |
00:02:27.447 - 00:02:29.749 |
My parents,
they didn't make it
through those times, |
00:02:36.322 - 00:02:38.791 |
so I live here
in Columbus, Ohio,
with my Aunt Alice. |
00:02:38.791 - 00:02:42.762 |
In 2045, Columbus is
the fastest-growing city
on Earth. |
00:02:42.762 - 00:02:48.101 |
It's where Halliday and Morrow
started Gregarious Games. |
00:02:48.101 - 00:02:51.437 |
These days,
reality is a bummer. |
00:02:56.309 - 00:02:58.711 |
Everyone is looking
for a way to escape, |
00:02:58.711 - 00:03:00.680 |
