Father's Salvaged Possessions

Master-bedroom salvage

Carl takes his father's weapon, cigarettes, documents, keys, furniture, clothing, and arcade cabinet before the memory timer ends.

Story so far

Carl checks the dresser drawer his father named and finds three packs of Marlboro Reds. He also takes a folder of court documents without reading it.

A 9mm Glock and two boxes of ammunition are the father's only firearm. Carl recovers keys for the Harley and broken Ford truck, then inventories the dresser and mirror, queen bed, bedside tables, clothes, and other movable items.

He leaves family photographs on the walls but takes the unplugged Centipede arcade cabinet. Carl sees the gun, motorcycle, and cabinet as the last defining possessions of a man whose life is about to end.

Appearance

A spread of Glock, ammunition, cigarettes, vehicle keys, legal folder, and Centipede arcade machine.

Role

The salvage strips Carl's father of material legacy while preserving tools and evidence for later use.
