Can you hear us? Can you see this?, otherwise known as VHS Tape #1, is an unlockable tape that can be found in Project: Playtime.

Harley Sawyer, also known as the Doctor, talks about how Playtime Co. is failing due to declining profits, lack of safety, and the constant threat of a lawsuit. He pitches the idea of the Bigger Bodies Initiative, claiming that it will solve these problems all at once. He requests to be put in charge of the project. It's currently unknown who he was talking to.

The video cuts off at the 1:13 mark, being replaced with text being typed out on the screen. A group of entities have reached out to the Specialist, wondering if they are trustworthy. They decide to send them a "gift" to test them. The Specialist is told to keep everything they heard a secret, and that the Bigger Bodies Initiative will fail.

Harley Sawyer:
"My name is Harley Sawyer. I'm called "the Doctor." When I look at this company we've built, I do not feel proud."

"Declining profits, failed experiments, people are constantly seeing things they shouldn't."

"How is that anything less than complete failure on our part? It's pathetic."

"Now we're understaffed, safety protocols are being abandoned, workplace incidents are common. We can't avoid a lawsuit forever."

"We need to deal with all of these issues at once. I'm here now with a solution."

"The Bigger Bodies Initiative."

"Giant toys, we can increase our workforce and simultaneously decrease the number of lawsuits and people on our payroll if there people we have working aren't people."

"Put me in charge of it, and I will save this company."
