It had three parts. The first part was in a school (of course) and I don't really remember it at all, besides that I knew the receptionist, and she was lonely. The second part is also pretty hazy; I know the two of us were working on some sort of musical project that required us to travel to this specific rich family's home (purportedly the home of a famous experimental musician) and steal their books. But when i got up the stairs to the bedroom where the books were, I couldn't bring myself to do it. Then, in the third section, we must locate the musician Burial, who is deep within "the underground", IE the basement of the house. We come back, and this time at night. The entire place is pitch black, but it's definitely the same house. I enter the basement and it unfolds into a ridiculous network of dingy subway-maintenance-esque hallways and adjoining rooms, all also pitch black. I run into various disheveled residents occasionally. At one point I find a ground of youths wildly swinging cell phone flashlights around in order to demonstrate how good the spot would be for filming a fucked up music video. From there I go up a stairwell and find myself in the bedroom with the books. Somehow I know that the family is actually travelling and won't be back any time soon, but I still can't bring myself to steal a book. I go downstairs to meet back up with you, but on the stairway I run into the receptionist from the school. She is so happy to see me, and suddenly we're on a couch under a blanket on a phone call with the head of school listening to teacher drama. This goes on for a while. Then I wake up.
