A Fragile Mind

Timeline: 2038

In AFM Universe: Runs parallel to AFMS1 EP07, as well as AFMS2 EPs 01, 04, 07, and 10.

With massive corporations running the country in this post-2nd-Civil War era, a lot can happen in the breakroom. Gossip, paranoia, intriguing developments. While this story runs akin to the mainline story, the roots of this story are buried primarily in Season One of AFMS. Using the backstory of the CAROL who goes by Carol, but is really Nichole, we learned that there was an uprising that takes place at some point between 2038 and 2040 (present day for AFMS). This might be a glimpse into how that all begins. If you're into the AFMS lore though, let's see which story line this will eventually connect with. Good luck hunting for that Easter Egg.

This show is part of the entire universe by Joe Swenson (Novels Letter #3 and The Key, Audio Dramas AFMS 1 & 2 (Rules of the Keeper) and At The Cabin.

From Executive Producers: Helen May and Hannah Lee DeFrates

Directed by Ian Ashland
