ALFA ‌ACTA ‌HOME ‌DEFENSE INSTITUTE OFFICE OF ADMISSIONS - OFFER OF APPOINTMENT
Dear Candidate {Contestant},
On behalf of the McJohnson family, we offer you a conditional appointment to the Operational Readiness Program at ALFA ACTA's Home Defense Institute.
Your performance in The Arena demonstrates the vigilance and healthy suspicion appropriate in candidates who will be defending their homes and property.
Candidates must live up to the McJohnson Standard. That means treating all visitors as unexpected. Even when they are expected.
You will study Perimeter Integrity, Advanced Door Answering, Defensive Landscaping, Residential Escalation, and Applied Neighbor Studies at the Institute.
Final appointment is conditional upon satisfactory performance and the personal approval of Grandma McJohnson.
Congratulations,
ALFA ACTA HOME DEFENSE INSTITUTE

DOC - IF THEY GET INSIDE

HARD PASS™ A Grandma McJohnson Guide to Unwanted Company
Company’s like rain. While a little can be welcome, too much and you’ve got a problem.
FORTIFY Latch the gate. Lock the door. Mind the windows. Remember, good fences save many awkward conversations.
PREPARE Know your exits. Keep what you need close. Pa kept a flashlight by the bed and a shovel by the door. Said between the two, most problems got sorted.
RESTORE Once the trouble’s gone, put things back the way you found ’em. Except the locks. Change all those.
REMEMBER: You don’t have to be rude. But you do have to be ready to be rude.
HARD PASS™
Hospitality Has Limits.

HENDERSON v. ALFA ACTA

EXCERPTS FROM TRIAL TRANSCRIPT

FRANK HENDERSON, previously sworn.
CROSS-EXAMINATION

BY MS. REED, COUNSEL FOR ALFA ACTA:

Q. No one at ALFA ACTA agreed to pay you for mowing the disputed strip. Correct?
A. I didn’t know I was mowing it for ALFA ACTA. Q. You believed it belonged to you.
A. Yes.
Q. So you’re asking my client to pay for your mistake?
MR. COLE, COUNSEL FOR HENDERSON: Objection. Argumentative.
THE COURT: Sustained. Rephrase.
BY MS. REED:

Q. After the survey established ownership, did you stop maintaining the strip?
A. No.
Q. You continued mowing it?
A. Someone had to.
Q. Your neighbor, Senior McJohnson, offered to do it. Is that correct?
A. He offered, yes.
Q. And you refused?
A. He cuts too low. I’ve told him. You get one dry week and the whole thing goes brown.
Q. But you refused his offer.
A. I’ve just explained why.

MS. REED: Nothing further.

[Excerpt resumes at the court’s ruling.]

THE COURT: Mr. Henderson, you have not established that ALFA ACTA requested this work or agreed to compensate you. Judgment is entered for the defendant.

MR. HENDERSON: Then they can mow it.

THE COURT: That concludes the matter.

MR. HENDERSON: An inch and a half. Tell whoever they send.

VAIIYA CUSTOMER SUPPORT - CALL TRANSCRIPT
AGENT: Thank you for holding. You were calling about your husband?
CALLER: Yes. He bit me when I tried to get him out from behind the fridge. He’s pulled it right off the wall. I don’t know how he got in there.
AGENT: I’m bringing up his chip status. Has he eaten anything unusual?
CALLER: Half a cereal box. The actual box. There’s nothing wrong with the cereal, I bought it yesterday.
AGENT: And is he responding to his name?
CALLER: No. The microwave went off and he came running, though. Nearly knocked me over.
AGENT: Yes, I see the issue. His chip is running a laboratory calibration profile.
CALLER: What does that mean?
AGENT: It’s a reward-response program used during animal testing. It shouldn’t be available on a consumer chip.
CALLER: What animal?
AGENT: A rat.
CALLER: ...My husband’s behind the fridge because you’ve turned him into a rat?! Are you [REDACTED]
AGENT: Please calm down, ma'am, I can assure you his normal profile is still intact. I will restore it remotely. Can you get him within reach of your phone?\
CALLER: I just told you he bit me! AGENT: Try rustling the cereal bag. [Pause.]
CALLER: He’s... coming out. Martin? Good, yes, over here...
AGENT: Starting the restore. Please give him a piece.
CALLER: Can I put it in a bowl?
AGENT: Of course.

SIMULATION REVIEW - FAMILY CAMPING TRIP
★☆☆☆☆
If I could rate this a 0/5 I would!!! booked this for a nice evening with the kids. We’re on our NINTH attempt because neither DISSUN station has fuel and my husband refuses to abandon the car. It is NOT OUR CAR! also someone stole our food again so now he’s drawn up a watch rota for next time. Apparently we’re doing a next time...

do NOT recommend this for families.

PS. I have Fun or Funds™ insurance through work, and I had ZERO fun so I’ll be claiming for all nine sessions. My husband says he’s enjoying it. He can file separately.

RESPONSE FROM PROVIDER
Dear valued participant, thank you for your feedback! We’re delighted to hear your family is engaging with the scenario.
The fuel shortage is an intended challenge. In fact, it is the main challenge. Your progress is saved when you exit, including the vehicle.
We look forward to welcoming you back!

DOC - SERVING UP THE NEIGHBORHOOD JUST LIKE GRANDMA INTENDED.

GRANDMA McJOHNSON’S C.A.S.S.E.R.O.L.E.™
Serves 6. More if they know their manners.
YOU’LL NEED:
1 lb mushrooms, chopped
1 onion, diced
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
2 cups sharp cheddar
1 bag frozen green beans
1 good handful fried onions
Salt, pepper, CHEDDAR CHARGE™ sauce to taste
Tater tots, enough to cover
1 sturdy baking dish with defensible sides
METHOD
Brown the mushrooms and onion until they've given up most of their moisture.
Drain thoroughly. A soggy foundation never held anything worth protecting.
Stir in soup, beans, cheese and CHEDDAR CHARGE™ sauce.
Season generously.
Spread evenly in your baking dish.
Arrange the tater tots around the outside first. Secure the perimeter. Work inward until there are no gaps. Gaps invite trouble.
Bake at 375° for 35 minutes.
Add fried onions and more cheddar.
Return to the oven until golden, bubbling, and inhospitable.
Let stand five minutes. Keep an eye on it.
Grandma’s Note: A proper casserole has layers. So does a proper defense. If anybody reaches across the table before grace, use your judgment.

DOC - // CNS SIGNAL OVERRIDE DETECTED

---------------INTERCEPTED EMAIL--------------------
SUBJECT: CNS BREACH
FROM: Marcel
TO: Grandma McJohnson
Mrs. McJohnson,
Please accept my personal apology for the CNS intrusion into ALFA ACTA operations. MultiCo should have caught it sooner.
Our intelligence suggests this was not the work of any CNS faction we’ve encountered before. We’re calling these individuals “The Architects” for now.
I suspect you’d call them something slightly shorter.
VAIIYA has offered to conduct a full security review. I understand you have already declined. Twice.
For what it’s worth, I’ve instructed our people not to interfere with whatever precautions you consider appropriate. I know better than to tell a McJohnson how to secure her own house.
Again, you have my apologies.
Marcel
P.S. Please thank Truck for his kind invitation to that housewarming party. I regret that I am otherwise engaged.

DOC - PROVE THAT GRANDMA KNOWS BEST.

INTERNATIONAL HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION MEMORANDUM, BOARD EYES ONLY
RE: ALFA ACTA / McJOHNSON RELATIONS
Following extensive consultation with Mrs. McJohnson, the Board recommends formally retiring the terms “excessive,” “dangerously disproportionate,” and “incompatible with normal residential life” from all future ALFA ACTA guidance.
This decision reflects our commitment to constructive dialogue and is in no way related to:
- Mrs. McJohnson’s 47 consecutive days of correspondence.
- The live Goo demonstration in the visitor parking lot.
- Her detailed assessment of each Board member’s home security.
- The photographs accompanying said assessment.
- Her observation that several of us “sleep awful close to a ground-floor window.”
The Association therefore proposes burying the hatchet and establishing a new cooperative relationship with ALFA ACTA.
Mrs. McJohnson has graciously agreed.

Challenges

THE MCJOHNSON STANDARD

MAIN CHALLENGE - WELCOME TO ALFA ACTA'S HOME DEFENSE INSTITUTE

ALFA ACTA recognizes THE FINALS as the preeminent preparedness simulator. Every match tests a candidate's ability to anticipate threats, secure a perimeter, protect what matters and transition to offence from defense effectively.
These are the very skills that underpin successful home defense. Although our initial assessment reveals alarming gaps in your vigilance, the McJohnson family believes you have potential.
We have prepared an Offer of Appointment to the Operational Readiness Program at ALFA ACTA's Home Defense Institute, pending approval from Grandma McJohnson. Congratulations. Please report to the Arena for your baseline training evaluation.

UNEXPECTED COMPANY

MAIN CHALLENGE - IF THEY GET INSIDE

ALFA ACTA research shows most household intrusions begin innocently: "We'll only stay a minute." "Is that coffee I smell?" "Can we sit in the shade?"
Once they're inside, your perimeter has buckled. That's why every ALFA ACTA customer receives our HARD PASS™ home-defense protocol in a pocket-sized brochure.

Head into the Arena and put HARD PASS™ to the test.

THE PANIC BUTTON

SIDE CHALLENGE - WHEN IN DOUBT, PRESS FIRMLY.

Before automated turrets, predictive threat detection, and active residential countermeasures, there was one red button.
One press locked the doors, secured the windows, illuminated the property, and initiated the McJohnson Panic Procedure. Simple enough for any member of the family to operate. Effective enough so that unwanted guests rarely lingered to learn what happened next.
Some ideas don't need improving. They need scaling. Enter the Arena and simulate initiating the Panic Procedure.

FRONT-DOOR SECURITY

MAIN CHALLENGE - KNOCK RIGHT BACK

ALFA ACTA knows incursions rarely begin with someone yelling "Home Invasion!" More commonly, they start with promotional samples, the smell of baked goods, or with seemingly innocuous statements like "there's a package here for you."
Charity workers. Meter readers. Long-lost cousins. The list goes on. Negative.
The Arena is no different. Protect what matters with the Ding-Dong D.E.NY.™ Protocol: Detect, Engage, NullifY. Head into the Arena and make your opponents regret they ever came knocking.

LAWN & ORDER™

MAIN CHALLENGE - PROTECTING YOUR PERIMETER

Every property ends somewhere. Sadly, the same isn't true of meddlesomeness. Lost footballs. Joggers. Dog walkers. Neighbors shortcutting across your lawn. Slippery incursions that balloon into invasions when boundaries aren't enforced.
You sense this. You know this.
The good news is that countless homeowners trust ALFA ACTA's LAWN & ORDER™ defense package, featuring the tried and trusted ALFA ACTA M60 for reliable everyday perimeter maintenance. Take it into the Arena and mow down any pesky boundary confusion.

Contracts

THE OTHER FAMILY

MAIN CHALLENGE - KNOW THY NEIGHBORS

According to the National Homeowner Preparedness Association, 7 in 10 families believe their next-door neighbors pose a threat. ALFA ACTA considers this estimate dangerously optimistic. The remaining 3 in 10 are presumably very gullible.
Fortunately, we've prepared a simulation for this type of situation featuring a neighboring family every bit as vigilant, well-equipped, and deeply suspicious as your own. Enter the Arena and settle the property dispute the old-fashioned way.

Contracts

Loretta McJohnson, Junior and Truck's little sister, has never lost. She doesn't plan to start now.
This year, she picked you.

A WARM WELCOME

MAIN CHALLENGE - SECURE YOUR BLOCK. BRING THE H.E.A.T.

A truck with faded livery? Suspicious. A rowdy sorority party when there's no college nearby? Not likely. A garage sale that attracts outsiders to your block? Profoundly unsettling. A hot-air balloon carrying six unidentified men and a goat descending into your neighborhood? More common than you think.
ALFA ACTA developed the H.E.A.T.™ Response Plan to counter these very real scenarios. Did you know 87.6% of typical neighborhood threats are countered effectively by using overwhelming firepower?
Enter the Arena and put our latest plan through its paces: Hold territory. Expose threats. Arm defenses. Trouble still there? Light it up.

SIDE CHALLENGE - BRING YOUR OWN BARRICADE.

Truck McJohnson just opened his own VR workshop where he intends to simulate real-world scenarios and rehearse his latest stunts. It's perfect for practicing the truck-fueled daredevilry he regularly performs for OSPUZE, but really, anything goes.
It's time to hold a housewarming party. What's the theme? BYOB™. Bring Your Own Barricade.

SIDE CHALLENGE - A BROTHERLY BUSINESS.

Ramona called Truck with a business opportunity ISEUL-T had turned down. Before she'd finished explaining the commercial prospect, he'd bought Baby, Bath & Ballistics™ without consulting his brother, or more importantly, Grandma.
Truck calls it diversification. Junior says it's the reason Truck's company credit card is revoked.

MAIN CHALLENGE - SERVING UP THE NEIGHBORHOOD JUST LIKE GRANDMA INTENDED.

Trouble has a smell. It's not a pleasant one. And once it's in the neighborhood air, it tends to spread. A county fair. A bluegrass concert. A farmers market. A peaceful protest. Halloween.
Harmless community gatherings? Not a chance.
Grandma's cooking up a new lesson for the ALFA ACTA Home Defense School. Test C.A.S.S.E.R.O.L.E.™ in the Arena: Control with Goo. Arm Mines. Secure with Barricades. Suppress with Gas.

FAMILY EMERGENCY DRILL

SIDE CHALLENGE - PREPARE FOR THE W.O.R.S.T.™ | SIMULATION I

A virus has compromised VAIIYA's behavioral chips. As a result, affected individuals exhibit extreme aggression, persistent biting, slurred or garbled speech and impaired coordination. But even more concerning, these folks no longer recognize established property lines! Authorities recommend boarding up windows and porches, locking doors and staying indoors. But that's just basic survival. We're beyond that, and Grandma wants to know you can do better. Enter the Arena, test ALFA ACTA's Family Emergency Loadout, contain the affected, and protect what matters.

MODEL HOMEOWNER

MAIN CHALLENGE - PROVE THAT GRANDMA KNOWS BEST.

The International Homeowners Association has questioned whether ALFA ACTA's preparedness and defense practices are "excessive," "dangerously disproportionate," and "incompatible with normal residential life."
Grandma McJohnson respectfully disagrees. So she's invited their board to ALFA ACTA headquarters for a live demonstration using Goo, which clearly no one can complain is excessive, no matter how benign the neighborhood may seem.
You'll be representing the McJohnson Standard Practice in the Arena. The Association crowd is watching. Make Grandma proud.

Handler Comments

Grandma McJohnson: Dangerously disproportionate. Hogwash! Senior would've called that a compliment.
Sometimes the best way to settle an argument is simply to show folks how it's done. They'll be watching you in the Arena.

Grandma McJohnson: Now remember, sweetheart, these Association folks are our guests. So mind your manners.
No gloating. No pointing out obvious deficiencies in their personal security. And don't ask any of 'em how they got here without checking underneath their vehicle.

Grandma McJohnson: Well, sweetheart, I don't know if we changed the Association's mind, but we sure gave 'em something to talk about.
That's how it spreads, honey. One concerned homeowner at a time.

THE PRICE OF FEAR

SIDE CHALLENGE - CNS SIGNAL OVERRIDE DETECTED

ALFA ACTA teaches you to lock the door.
Watch the neighbors. Build the wall. Buy another turret.
Funny how every new thing you're told to fear comes with something they're wiling to sell you.

Handler Comments

Grandma McJohnson: Well now, sweetheart. Look how far you've come. You've shown me everything I needed to see.
So that's enough tests. Set the table, hun. We're coming for dinner. And yes, we'll knock!

Grandma McJohnson: You've heard enough from this old woman, honey. You know what to watch for. You know who to look after. And you know what to do when trouble comes knocking.
Go on. I'm watching.

Grandma McJohnson: Well, sweetheart... I reckon that's that. You've shown me everything I needed to see. Senior would've liked you. I know I do.
There's an old McJohnson heirloom I've been saving for the right person. Welcome to the family, honey.

NOT FOR COMPANY

SIDE CHALLENGE - P.E.A.C.E. CENTER SUBLEVEL CLEARANCE

There are parts of every home guests aren't expected to wander into. At ALFA ACTA headquarters, those parts begin five floors below ground.
Access to the lower P.E.A.C.E. Center is restricted to family members, authorized personnel, and individuals who have demonstrated sufficient judgment under simulated emergencies.
Please don't make us change the locks again. Complete your Arena assessment to gain access.

Handler Comments

Grandma McJohnson: Mama had one room we weren't allowed into without permission. Naturally, that made it the most interesting room in the house.

Grandma McJohnson: Now don't go getting too curious, honey. Most of what's downstairs is perfectly ordinary.
Emergency supplies. Archives. Testing facilities.
Most of it.

Grandma McJohnson: You passed, honey. That gets you through the first blast door. And before you ask, no, five floors down isn't the bottom.
Not even close.
