+
+I was seeing someone through the lens of a concealed camera, like the thing
+journalists might do.  The camera's wearer went into a store to go buy a pair of
+scissors, then went into a toy store to buy some sort of zip tie.  A woman
+working at that store helped him remove the zip tie from its hard plastic case.
+
+The man opens a MacBook's case and installs some dark gray cable supposed to
+block the num lock key to protect the computer.  He complains to the camera
+about the complexity of installing all of this, although some resellers provide
+MacBooks with this system already installed.  He slowly folds the long cable
+multiple times to make it fit in the case, then picks up one of its ends,
+bearing a USB micro B plug.  There were 3 or 4 micro B female plugs in the case,
+some intersecting each other, and all apparently had different behaviors.
+
+---
+
+I was with my best friend in the middle of a field.  We had unplugged, then
+plugged back in, over a hundred key fobs.  Each key fob was attached to a pole
+buried in the ground, and all the poles were forming a grid.  The grid was
+apparently supposed to act as an antenna and give us an internet connection.
+
+I plugged a cable coming from one of the poles into my phone, and it only caused
+it to start recharging instead of getting an internet connection.  We try to
+plug this cable differently into each of the MacBook's case's micro B plugs, to
+try each of the different behaviors of these plugs.
+
+---
+
+Back to the concealed camera.  This time, its wearer is one of my cousins, and
+not some unknown man.  After coming back to the first store to drop off the
+scissors he will no longer need (as those were intended just to open the zip
+tie's case!) into a random aisle, possibly making someone happy with some free
+scissors later, he exits the store and ends up in a hallway.
+
+The hallway is quite narrow and leads to an equally small room with no windows,
+maybe 15 squre meters, in which a few people are chilling and talking.  On the
+corner opposite to the hallway is a strange set of stairs.
+
+You can both take the stairs to your left or your right.  You will reach a
+corner, turn, reach another corner, and meet the other set of stairs, and then
+you can walk onto new stairs either behind you or on your side; basically
+imagine a staircase that turns on each corner of a square-shaped room, but it
+gets mirrored to the opposite side of room, so you have two staircases
+intersecting each other.
+
+This physics-breaking staircase leads to some private nightclub, judging from
+the colored light we can see coming from above and the music.  My cousin first
+sees some french policemen at the bottom of the stairs; he spins around himself
+and the policemen are replaced by one security guard.  He tries to run and
+quickly go up the stairs to avoid the guard, but the guard catches up to him and
+grabs his shirt.
+
+My cousin manages to free himself, but then the guard goes up the stairs even
+faster and blocks him upstairs, right before the nightclub's entrance.  He tries
+to push the guard, but the guard pushes back and they both fall down the stairs.
+
+I see my cousin from an outside POV, as if I was looking through a security
+camera now; he is lying down in the middle of the stairs, with his neck all red.
+The security guard punches him in the face.

+
+I was walking in an abandoned building, similar in style but not in layout to
+one I explored many times IRL.  I entered a large room.  The walls were covered
+with colorful tags, the ceiling was rather high, everything was made of concrete
+and sunlight was entering the room through some completely missing walls.
+I find my cousin there, who tells me something like "reorganization" and I reply
+"reaffectation" while we sit down on a wooden bench in the middle of the room.
+My two other cousins were sitting on another bench a bit further away.
+
+then i woke up.
