No captioning in today’s “Backstage at The Librarian” video other than YouTube’s automatic captioning (which I have yet to see caption anything correctly), so a transcript follows:

0:00 - Guitar strumming, then the words “check, check,” [then ambient noise over shots of the audience, Cecil, and Disparition]

0:13: [Applause as the shot switches from Disparition to Queen Meg, fading when Cecil starts to speak]

0:26 - Cecil: “Then the show went on, and that moment of exchange hung between all the strangers in the audience, latent, and invisible. Perhaps to be reprised later, or perhaps already only existing in the poor reconstruction of memory.”

0:50 - Cecil: “Stay tuned next for a shuffling movement outwards, the dimming of lights, and a large hall left empty and silent until the next time it is not.”

1:13 - Cecil: “Goodnight to all of you, listeners.”

1:18 - Cecil: “And goodnight, Night Vale. Goodnight.”

1:26 - [Applause, quickly fading out at 1:29]
