Each level of the Tower is different. Amenities and environments are tailored to the needs of the Policies who dwell there. Of course the Managerial class requires a greater degree of comfort than tunnel dwelling Policies. How else would our society function? The intricate, careful work of the Vice Presidents, Managers, and other leaders requires a clear head and gentle life.You would not disturb this careful balance by demanding more than is your due, would you Loyal Policy? Of course not.Content Warnings for this episode can be found here.The Narrator— Ansel BurchTeju Valentine— Jonah WinstonSwitchblades Cobalt— Ele MatelanWaiter— Zev ValancyDoctor Emily Caligari— Marsha HarmanJosh— David RheinstromJenny— Marsha HarmanThe Voice of HartLife— Jeffrey GardnerWritten by David Rheinstrom.

Loyal Policies- the truth can be a hard algae-pill to swallow. No matter how you may feel about the villainous, disloyal Policies confined to the Cube, do not be swayed. Their re-education is just. Their treatments are mandated. Their care is rationally considered and metered to restore them to peak functionality and efficiency. They have forgotten their place within HartLife. Do not forget your Content Warnings for this episode can be found here.The Narrator— Ansel BurchDirector Charles Gari— Johnard WashingtonDoctor Montgomery Moro— Mark SoloffMolePerson— Nate WheldenElizabeth Snidge— Tara SchileSeth— Hank HewittAndrew Snidge- Frank SjodinGuard— Rose SengenbergerDoctor Herbert West— Ryan SchileThe Voice of HartLife— Jeffrey GardnerWritten by Mark Soloff.
