"Oh Happy Day!" Cecil declares, abandoning the story about the the lack of safety issues currently surrounding the children of Night Vale as the door to his studio quietly snicks shut behind him. "I have just received word that Carlos returned from the entrance to the city..."
In ringing tones full of honest admiration and less-than-subtle infatuation he explains the extent of Carlos' discovery, and the triumphant method of how he reveals the truth to one and all - there may be a city underneath the pin retrieval area of Lane Five, but it is very tiny! Only ten feet down, and so small its tallest spires only reach to Carlos' knees as he stands amidst that place they feared for so long! How brave, how bold, how brilliant his scientist! How insignificant their problems!
"Well… if Carlos says it, I will happily repeat it. We have nothing to fear, and never did!" He intones firmly, as if by sheer will alone he could obliterate the doubts and fears in the minds of all his listeners.
