The Last Work: 12PM is the three-hundredth video in the lonelygirl15 video series. It is also the forty-fourth video of season two.

Transcript

(Color bars are seen and a high pitched noise is heard. The bottom of the screen reads, "St. Grinstead Psychiatric Research Institution" and next to it reads, "TCG" with a timer for the video. The color bars disappear and we see Gavin, Doctor 1, and Doctor 2 in a room. Gavin is sitting on a bed facing the two men and the camera is centered on him. Doctor 2 is turned at the camera, adjusting it. He turns back to Gavin.)

Doctor 2: Eh, you don't mind if we film this, do you Gavin?

Gavin: Uh, no.

Doctor 2: Good.

Gavin: No. It's c- it's cool. It's cool bananas, man. Cool. Ice cold. (Whispering) Cool.

Doctor 2: Good.

Gavin: What's this for?

Doctor 2: Oh, it's just for reference.

Gavin: Reference?

Doctor 2: Mhm. (Nods)

Gavin: Swell.

Doctor 2: Yeah.

Doctor 1: Gavin, as you know we've been monitoring your progress over the last few weeks with us and we're really, really happy with the signs of recovery you've been showing us.

Doctor 2: Mmm, it's been a real improvement.

Doctor 1: But there is- there's still one aspect of your assessment that's... cause for concern and, well... it's entirely normal for- for people to... question their self-image, the face we present in the world. We'd like to do some work on that today. (Looks at camera) Are you sure you're okay with us filming this?

Gavin: Yeah.

Doctor 1: Because it just seems from your case notes that the- the sense of being viewed or tracked is... it's still an issue for you.

Gavin: So?

Doctor 1: So... what we'd like to do today is to try a- a little exercise.

(Doctor 2 hands Gavin a clipboard with a piece of paper.)

Doctor 1: W-what we'd like you to do is to- is to write or, or maybe even draw for us some sense of the emotions that- that surface while you're being recorded.

Gavin: I haven't got a pen.

Doctor 2: Oh, sorry. (Hands Gavin a pen) Here.

Gavin: Thank you. (Holds pen to paper) You want me to show you with this (holds pen up) how I feel about that (points to camera)?

Doctor 1: Yeah, just- just give us some idea of the opportunities that the- having a camera in the room presents to you.

(Gavin goes to start writing on the paper but suddenly stabs Doctor 1 in the leg with the pen. Doctor 1 starts screaming and falls to the floor. Gavin gets up and beats Doctor 2 over the head with the clipboard. He grabs the camera, shows Doctor 2 on the floor, then Doctor 1. He grabs a set of master keys off a desk and runs out of the room, shutting the door behind him. He runs down the hall, passing a staff member along the way. He keeps running, checking around corner for people.)

Gavin: (winded) Welcome to Grinstead's loony bin. A place where The Order stores their problems. And it looks like I'm just reached my used by date. (Runs down another hallway)
