[It's just before lockdown ends in the morning that John sends out his message. He knows it's going to invite criticism, ire, possibly screaming at him some more. But people deserve to know what's happening.]

Good morning, everyone. I don't know where everyone is, but I wanted to say thank you for those who've been helping to put up messages around town for the anomalies. We'll be reaching the power plant this morning. We have a good team with us and we've made some preliminary plans about how to trap specific anomalies, as needed, and how to talk to the ones who might be willing to help us. We're keeping things flexible in the event some are there that we haven't planned for or what have you.

I know some of you don't approve of this. I know some of you think I'm a monster for helping to organize this. That's all right. I'm taking responsibility for what happens today. The people who are helping haven't been forced, but I am directing them. Any failure, any lives lost, injuries sustained, those are on me. We'll provide an update at the end of the day when it's done.

Godspeed to everyone in the Bunker. We're counting on you. To everyone else scattered to the winds, hold fast. We'll make it through this. Keep safe and keep warm.
