Ignoring the signs - what if it were completely random, like the last thing we talked about? Some people go into a door and get the normal and very bad door experience, some people go in and get something nicer. Then it'd be a little like the other thing, where people start wondering why and getting angry about it.
I'd need to talk to the others about it, but I'm not sure if that's gonna work right now, either. We just got the other thing in place, and that was already pretty nice, even if it's the way it is.

they're vague on purpose, but... they sound genuinely apologetic, reaching under their veil to adjust something, or maybe rub between their eyebrows. ]
This can act as a good example for Yuri, at least, but I think in the circumstances, I won't be able to say yes. Sorry, Rupert.
It's okay. It's not your fault, and - I'm sure we can think of something else soon. [he glances back towards yuri.] That's pretty much how it works, though - you just have to find a way to justify it that seems like it would be more appealing to the person in charge, even if it's something that helps us, too.
So throwing a "prize" into one of the rooms, and incentivising us to keep looking through them and do our best to beat the challenges inside of them for that prize wouldn't count as entertaining enough for your Nightman, Aquila?
[ you can't see their face, but they definitely make a face. ]
I don't know, Yuri. It's - the doors are hard to predict, anyway, so adding something to to them or changing them would probably be impossible. Like I said. I'll snoop around, but I doubt it.
Don't go asking the others for deals about the doors, while you're at it. They'll give you the exact same answer.
We've been telling you guys, we really aren't your all knowing overlords like some of you keep assuming.
[ they shrug. to rupert: ] ...Iunno. It'd really depend on what it was, and I think two in one day might be pushing it. Keep in mind that I'm not trying to lose my job.
Right... I definitely don't want to get you in trouble. This can just be an example for him, then, and if I think of something else, I'll come back on Saturday. Sound good?

If I can think of something else while I'm here, can I ask for that, or is it one request a day?

So the doors are a huge mystery even to the staff. I'm not sure if that's reassuring or not.
