Overview
Daniel plays a video game on PC using an Xbox controller and large monitor while eating chicken soup, comparing mechanics between Battlefield and Call of Duty Warzone and monitoring financial trades that gain £26 before dropping.
Daniel receives messages from his girlfriend stating she cannot afford to meet this weekend because of car repair and vet expenses, turning down his offers to drive to her, cover petrol or food, or reschedule for the following weekend.
Daniel closes his game due to distress over the messages, reviews their two-month history of meeting almost weekly, consults his sister for advice after she notes the situation seems unusual, and prepares to charge his car to travel to his mother's house from Devon before ending the stream.
