{{DISPLAYTITLE:''Death of the Of The Hired Man''}}
{{Acts}}
{{title}} is the fifth and final {{KRZ}} interlude, released on January 28, 2020 alongside [[Act V]] and the game's TV Edition. Its title comes from the poem "[[wikipedia:The Death of the Hired Man|The Death of the Hired Man]]" by [[wikipedia:Robert Frost|Robert Frost]].
== Synopsis ==
With no audience, actors, or crew to perform his play, Carrington sits in [[The Lower Depths]] with [[Harry Esperanza]] while lamenting the failure of his production. [[Emily]] sits and watches TV while the two talk. The events of the interlude mirror those described in Frost's poem of the same name, with certain lines of dialogue borrowed directly from the poem. Carrington and Harry (who mirror Frost's characters of Warren and Mary) discuss Lula's sudden move to Mexico, [[Brandon]] (who mirrors the character of Silas), and what the concept of having a place to call home means. Despite the failure of his performance, Carrington, albeit unknowingly, finds himself within a version of the story nonetheless.
