Please, fast forward 2 months.
As mind’s eye pans over the green, leafy British countryside the rapid staccato percussion of a helicopter’s blades can be heard. As we grow closer, the chopper comes into view. Hovering, its illuminating search light pointed down at the ground.
On the ground firemen and other emergency-response types move around quickly, with purpose. An a-frame and winch is assembled, with a taut steel cable running from it down into a pit as dark as pitch.
One of the firemen activates the winch. After what seems like an eternity of grinding gears and the sound of steel plinking tightly a hirsute… thing is hauled out of the hole and quickly lifted onto a stretcher. Half man, half something, he — it — blinks in the bright lights.
As he is dragged away from you and into the back of an ambulance only one thing is heard, a slight mania in his voice: “I can lick my own elbow you know!”
…
And that, kind sirs, is my epic escape from the bunker in Day 37.
Below is the next installment of Day 37. The beardless aftermath that picks up the story again, a week or month after Sebastian has been rescued from a bunker that he was trapped in for 3 months. If you haven’t seen Chapters 1-3 of Day 37, I suggest you watch them first, as this one won’t make much sense without the back story!

The trouble with this episode is that it’s blindingly obvious that you’re in the same room as you were before. Which didn’t look like a bunker in the first place.

Yeah, but this time I turned the light on.
I’m on a BUDGET man.

Wait a darned varmint-ridden minute… what’re you doing belittling MY bunker?!
Show me YOUR bunkerish bedroom, and then throw stones at mine!

I realise that the comment was unnecessarily critical. But you’ve got to do what you’re good at :).

Hey tell me again why are you trapped for that long?

No one knew I was in the bunker…
There’s a WHOLE big back story… which I might fill in one day, in a bunch of ‘flashback’ video blogs…

Bit late for commenting on this, but…
I love that you said he was “gorgeous,” lol… adorable.
Also, I think you should have Jim Sturgess play you in the film, that way you can turn it into a really confusing musical/madness-in-bunker extravaganza! Like that horror musical… Evil Dead?

Well he IS cute!
Jim Sturgess would be pretty good.
I was thinking more Anthony Head though, and the musical episode of Buffy… …

Okay, but Anthony Head looks nothing like you! Better go with Jim…
