February 20, 2026 Episode 17: Smoke and Mirrors [42-713]
A seemingly standard, if not extreme, case of a soldier's PTSD finds its way into the depths of the Red Ribbon Files, and the haunting story of trauma takes a darker turn when the memories become all too real.
Does this mean that some Red Ribbon Files are "typical" mental health patients, or is there something more sinister behind Captain Crane's trauma? If it's all in the soldier's head, what was the attendant in the addendum talking about? Are the doctors of the Asylum really helping her, or is there something more going on?
