A military producer informs the hosts that four GIGN (Groupe d'Intervention de la Gendarmerie Nationale) officers were involved in the response to the Paris attacks. The discussion shifts to the eerie similarity between the real-world events and the Ubisoft video game "Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege," which features GIGN units rescuing hostages from terrorists in Paris. The hosts remark on the late author's tendency to be ahead of geopolitical events.

The trailer for the upcoming video game "Rainbow Six Patriots" features a scene where a banker is kidnapped and executed with an explosive belt. This imagery is analyzed as a form of "sublimation," allowing players to vent frustrations against the financial elite through virtual violence. The game is viewed as part of a broader trend of preconditioning and desensitization regarding civil unrest and domestic terrorism.
