Silver looks down at his kirin, and meets her magenta eyes with his own sky blue ones.
"That new appliance I bought for household not too long ago, sitting in living room. It is like radio, but it broadcasts pictures as well as sounds."

To explain the area:
The basement is dominated by a wine cellar as you enter down the stairs from the first floor of the house. Then in a connected room is a large number of shelves, with no door but only an open archway separating the storage area from the wine cellar. In a small adjacent room to the storage area is a rectangular room that is used to store several items, including the lesser art piece. This room is sectioned off from the main storage room by a door. This room is something like an antechamber to another, which is seperated by a stairway and a doorway to some room even further underground. This room holds the greater art piece.
The greater art piece has been transported up the stairs to the antechamber/small storage room. While it isn't that great of a distance, it is one of the two stairways it must be hauled up, and more importantly, it is being boxed in this room.

"Oh..." She says.
"I uh, I was wondering what that was. I saw a small portion of a motion picture back in Ngua Nam but... never an entire one."

Presumably by this time they reach the car, where Silver helps Khoi into the passenger seat and closes the door for her like a gentlestallion, and then gets in the driver's seat himself. He pulls out of the lot to go for their next location: a movie theater.

The two walk the several blocks to the parking lot. Khoi looks at Silver, and then hops into the car seat. She comments "all of this is new to me..." shortly after entering the car.
The two drive some number of blocks along Westside, before coming to the tan-walled building with a red metal sign, a ring of lights, and the names of movies displayed in black letters on a white background: the cinema.

Silver parks the car in an acceptable spot, and once again gets out first to help his date out of the car. Once out, he offers his hoof to walk her to the cinema.

A space by the roadway is available, albeit on the other side of the street. She gives Silver a quick smile as he helps her out of the car, and then presumably across the street. The two walk up to near the ticket booth.

Trickey's eyes go wide, and she moves her head back. Sorrel, lovingly holding the other (still at least half full) bottle, takes notice and looks over at Dark Night, and walks a little closer. The Whiskey is smooth, but biting.

Her mouth starts to come open. Soon, Dark Night has an audience of both, wide eyed ponies, who stand and watch in amazement as the small earth pony drinks.

Tricky's mouth hangs open, and she blinks
"All of that..."
Sorrel looks at the spectacle, but then lowers her muzzle down towards the remaining open box, and starts to nuzzle the waffle.

"You'll regret that in the morning." She says
Sorrel, standing up and with her muzzle in the box that lies on the floor, bites into the waffle.

She is scrunching... until she sees the bottle of whiskey. She sits down, clops her hooves together in a quick clap, and makes a "hehe" as her eyes widen. She moves over, bops Sorrel in the nose, causing the latter to pull away with a loud "squeak" sound, and pulls the waffle closer to herself.
Dark Night leaves the room, and manages to go downstairs

Dark Star was wise to eat the hayburger, lest he become too drunk too quickly. He makes it out of the room, down the stairs, and presumably, into the bar

"I figured" He says. "Let me get you a tall glass." He pours a tall glass with water, though only after adding a few ice cubes.
"Here you go."
He gives Dark Night a sly smile.

Khoi's grip is fairly weak on Silver, but she does not hesitate to let Silver hold her hoof. They move inside the pink carpeted building with its dim lights, concession stand, and its many posters of black and white stallions in fedoras and trench coats carefully holding hidden revolvers, or of a mare terrified at a green eyed Abyssinian standing tall in a dark doorway. Silver may not chose to purchase concessions if desired.

Silver looks around with wide, excited eyes. He looks at the posters for various movies, oooing at the gangsters and aaaahing at the Abyssinian. He also at least checks out the concession stand to see what they have.

Silver blinks in turn.
"Oh. Uh, popcorn is what you get when you heat kernals of corn, they explode out from their shells and turn into fluffy white pieces of foodstuff, then you cover them in butter and salt. Soda is sweetened, carbonated, caffinated beverage. I think there used to be type of soda that had cocaine instead of caffine, but they stopped that."

As Mason raises the last board on the box, and starts to hammer it in, Helm turns back to Amber and smiles.
"Yes and no. No, these are not part of a proper set. The beauty that is being boxed up now is over a thousand years old and belongs to an unknown artist from an indigenous Hertzland culture. This-" He places a claw on the back of the statue of the hound, and for a moment, amber may be afraid that the thing will turn and bite him, so realistic does it look. "Was sculpted by the artist Georgi Genovicci in a straight, almost sleepless three week period, after he awoke in a cold sweat one morning, saying he saw the thing in a dream. No, they do not share the same origin, nor subject matter, nor even material. They are not what we would normally think of as a 'set'."
Mason finishes the hammering, and sets the hammer down. He looks upwards towards the ceiling in bewilderment. All in the room can hear the sound of banging, but Mason is the only to notice that he has stopped hammering.
"But yes, they are a set, as both are going to the same new owner in New Manehattan. And that is why we are moving these here."

"So this one has a definite history. Good to know at least, but I have no idea why a sculptor would recreate his nightmare…I wonder if the other had a similar origin, and is just older and by a different griffon.."

"I meant to say "German" instead of "Polish," she abruptly cried, blushing lightly.
"It's just that I get excited at the thought of European nationalism and that, despite it, they might want to cum in my pony pussy," she quickly blurts out, slightly retreating as she does so, bashfully mock-folding one foreleg over the other.
"Maybe I could just go for a nice pretzel?"

Helm looks down on the hound with a loving glance, as if it were his own beloved hunting dog, and gently rubs his claw against its "back."
"Oh I can see why. He had a vision of something older. More primal. Unmitigated. And what a fine job of turning that vision into reality. As for the other... We can only speculate. Perhaps it came in a vision or dream. Perhaps he saw it with his own eyes."
Mason turns around.
"Ready."

The statue of the Griffin, while seemingly containing a core of metal, is otherwise comprised of bone or ivory or some similar lightweight substance, and as it is largely hollow and adorned in amber, it isn’t very heavy. The hound is larger and is composed of solid stone. It is much heavier.
The hound may be grabbed by the creature’s barrel, or at its base.
“Careful not to grab onto the wings, lest they break.”

Silver smiles at his kirin.
"Pretzels are baked bread snacks covered in salt, usually made into twists. Peanuts are type of nut, like name suggests. Haydogs are like hayburgers, but hay patties are long and shaped like dog's body."

The hound, for all of its malign glory, does not have an energy, or stigma emanating from it. Not like the other. Thankfully even that has declined significantly since the other was boxed and incased in wood.
It’s level ground through the door, across the storage room, to the base of the stairs.

“Um… maybe a pretzel.” She answers. “And… maybe peanuts?” She holds her teeth down, looks up, and extends her right foreleg, hoof angled down in a questioning pose.

It's heavy, but they make it all the same through the threshold and across the floor. When they come to the stairs, Amber is placed on the side walking back up the stairs, while Helm and Mason are both on the bottom side, holding the statue up. It's awkward and heavy to lead up the stairs, but it occurs all the same. On the way up, Mason looks around, like a dog in the night, who sits up to attention at an unheard provocation. They make it to the threshold to the first floor.

Amber can hear sounds down the hallway, past a bend and to the entry foyer where new creatures enter and speak. She can hear talking in the library (the room she was in previously) that consists of simply direct questions and orders.

Amber knows what she doesn’t hear, and she doesn’t hear laughter or jovial speech.
Helm whispers:
“Could the police be here?”
Mason backs into the threshold of the basement, and from under his coat draws a pistol, albeit an odd pistol that is very long, big, and has the magazine in front of the handle.

Helm starts to walk towards the library. Mason stays back, holding his gun tightly.

Yes and no. No, there are no exits to the house that are visible from Amber's position. Yes, there are alternative points of movement away from the locations where the police are suspected (the library and the entry foyer). Going left on the hallway will lead to the library, the entry foyer, the staircase and a few other rooms. Going right in the hallway that Amber is currently at will take her somewhere else.
Mason glares back at Amber, holding the pistol upright. It appears he has his own assessment of the situation independent of both Helm and Amber. Helm is already moving towards the library.

Amber moves down the hallway to see a rear door, and a doorway that peels off into a kitchen, and then to a different room in the back.

It's a rather large kitchen, albeit of some sort of older design. It includes a pantry, large cupboards, an island, and slots for wine bottles near the ceiling. There is a window to the outside.
