Do you have a pen? Okay here, take this sheet of paper. I want you to write down exactly what I say 5 times, okay? 5 times. Don’t ask why, don’t say anything. Just do what I tell you.

Write down, in capital letters, “CZ”, then put a space, and then write, “84721”.

You got that? Okay, good. Thank you. Now write that four more times.

It doesn’t matter why; it does matter but I’m not going to tell you why I’m having you do this until you’ve written it out all 5 times.

Just do it.

Are you done?

Okay, great. Thank you.

I had you write down those numbers and letters 5 times so that you would remember them. You have them down in your head from writing them, don‘t you? Exactly, that’s what I was going for.

Look, I walked here today. I know it’s far. I know, I wouldn’t have done this if the thing didn’t happen.

My family’s car was stolen, okay? We have no idea where it is, all we know is that it’s gone and we’re trying to get people to memorize the license plate so that it’s recognizable when out on the road so you can call it in.

I understand if this is weird, I understand that you have no idea who I am and that you’re probably uncomfortable and I’m very sorry about that. I really am.

My family desperately needs our car back. My dad couldn’t go into work today because he has to drive out a few towns over to Willoughby each day, he works at the clinic there. His boss was all upset at him and that anger that carried onto him he carried onto the rest of us.

Please, if you see it out on the road, please call the cops and tell them you know of a stolen car that you’ve spotted and where you’re at. If they ask about how you know it’s a stolen car, I can write out all of my information like my name, address and phone number on the paper so you have it in case they ask.

Thank you so much for listening and doing everything I’ve asked. Yeah, I’ll go ahead and write my information down.

There you go. Again, thank you so much, I hope you have an amazing day! Thank you, of course.

Goodbye.

Please help me...

You.

I am talking to you.

Yes, you,

reading this right now.

Hi,

I know we haven't met before,

but I am in desperate need of assistance.

I think I'm being followed.

I can't be certain but...

No,

I am certain.

This man is following me.

Who turns down the same five streets as someone?

Is he going to kill me?

Oh my god,

I knew I shouldn't have gone out tonight.

I should have listened to my gut

and stayed inside tonight.

Who will remember me if I die?

Please still be there, reader,

I need you to do something for me.

I need you to tell someone,

anyone,

what is happening right now.

Because I don't think I'm going to be making it out of this one.

I'm almost to my car.

I think I can actually make it.

Maybe I won't need your help after---
