21.

In room 211 at The Mulberry Hotel six people have come together. All six people, along with one other, who in this moment so happens to be staying at the local hospital, are suffering from total memory loss only. Even at this very early stage and separately, something is returning, not very much is coming back but between them all there is something. There are clues too, some unreliable, others intentional, and if everything can be brought together or put together then who knows what may come from it?

One thing is as to if they can all work together and be honest with one another completely to a point where everything and anything can be discussed honestly, truthfully, and openly and without letting doubt set in then a forward motion may come, though what if doubt is what can aid a forward motion to be just that?

Conversation and discussion begin, bringing everyone up to speed as to how everyone woke to their memory loss, where their waking moment took place and how it is they all came to be here, and the discussion also brings in all which also has Sander being where he is as well as having the information Archer received via Sander being brought to the table.

Everyone including Bonnie and apart from Archer do the whole head search thing finding no signs of any head surgery among any of them. No evidence at all is detected. If they all are connected with some kind of implants, then there are no obvious signs as to how such a thing may have come about. It is also possible that if whatever it is in Sander's head is in his head alone, then he may be the only one affected by whatever the heck it is though if seven people wake in the same town on the same day all with the effects of memory loss it could be safe to say that they are all affected by the same thing.

Despite it already having been spoken of rather briefly, a question comes as to how exactly this room came about and a thought is spoken out loud that if this room was booked and paid for prior to the any moment of waking with memory loss had occurred then could this room be bugged? Is it possible that these people right here right now are being watched or listened to, could they be subjects in some sort of experiment?

This brings a moment of Henry feeling rather stupid, not because of the discussion of the possibilities as to if room 221 is bugged somehow but rather to the fact of possibly having Archer identified. Siobhan down at the reception desk had been able to tell Henry that a Doctor Archer had paid for the room on the day previous to when Bonnie woke in this room with no memory.

Siobhan obtained this information through a computer she worked at so she herself did not see a Doctor Archer, so if she hadn't then maybe someone else who works at the hotel has. Taking up a leader's role once again, Henry informs Archer that he needs him to accompany Henry himself down to the lobby for an experiment of his own. Archer takes offence to a couple of things in this moment.

'Who made you group leader? It's not like we have taken any kind of vote or anything of the likes?'

'I am only trying to get somewhere here, possibly putting two and two together' Henry says as calmly as possible, not wanting any arguments to break out. It is understandable that there is agitation, if anything there should be a lot more of it at this point or prior to this point, but if at all possible, it best to be calm or as calm as can be whenever possible.

'Get somewhere my ass ... if anyone of us knows more than we are letting on then that would be you.'

'I'm not hiding anything Archer, c'mon, no need to freak out.'

'Freak out, no need to freak out ... really? Why don't you tell everyone about your little secret huh? Since we are having an open discussion here ... we may as well get everything out in that open.'

Bonnie is not liking any of this at all, she had turned to see what is happening only to return her gaze back to a wall, a plain uninteresting wall. Sue is surprised at this moment and the twins are intrigued to watch the moment play out.
