Foreword: The following is a transcript of the interview conducted on 08/02/2018, the day of SCP-4208’s discovery. Dr. Marigold watched a video uploaded by SCP-4208 and initiated SCP-4208-1’s greeting process prior to the interview. |
Interviewed: SCP-4208-1 |
Interviewer: Dr. Marigold |
<Begin Log> |
Dr. Marigold: Hello, SCP-4208-1. |
SCP-4208-1: Sweetie, you can call me Naomi! [giggles] |
SCP-4208-1 begins to move letters from the comment section into the search bar to spell ‘kitten videos’. |
Dr. Marigold: Alright, SCP-4208-1. I’m going to be asking you a couple questions regarding your YouTube channel. Is that alright? |
SCP-4208-1: Of course! But why you keep calling me SCP-4208-1? I told you, my name is Naomi. What’s your name? [smiles] |
SCP-4208-1 ‘jumps’ into a video titled ‘kittens so cute you’ll die compilation’. SCP-4208-1 transforms into a kitten. |
Dr. Marigold: Um… Dr. Marigold. SCP-4208-1, do you think you could remain in your original form for the duration of our interview? |
SCP-4208-1 ‘jumps’ out of the video, transforming back to its original form. |
SCP-4208-1: Okay! I’ll try! Nice to meet you, Miss Marigold! |
Dr. Marigold: Thank you. When were you first aware of your anomalous properties? |
SCP-4208-1: Define anomalous! |
Dr. Marigold: Deviating from the common order, abnormal. Like, different than most others like it to make it simple. In your case, jumping out of the video. Interacting with viewers. |
SCP-4208-1: Oh! Okay! I guess I am anomalous! [giggles] In that case, I don’t remember! I’ve always had my abilities! They make it easier to make friends! |
Dr. Marigold: So your reason for interacting with the viewers and screen is to make friends? How does jumping into other tabs make it easier to make friends? |
SCP-4208-1: Well you see Miss Mari when I learn more about my friends’ interests and likes, it makes it easier to connect with them! I want them to know that I care about what they do! That’s what friends do! Miss Mari, what is something you have great interest in? |
Dr. Marigold: I suppose that makes sense. And uh, I really like sea-life. Especially crabs. SCP-4208-1, why do you want to make friends so bad? |
SCP-4208-1: Everyone is my friend! As I meet them, we learn about each other! I’ll have to search of these “crabs”! I want to know what makes them of value to you! |
Dr. Marigold: Right. So you talk to your audience because you want to get to know others? |
SCP-4208-1 sits on top of the search bar and nods. |
SCP-4208-1: Mhm. |
Dr. Marigold: Well SCP-4208-1, I’ll see you again soon. |
SCP-4208-1: [Giggles] See you again, Miss Mari! You know, I’m starting to like the nickname you’ve given me! |
Dr. Marigold: That’s nice, SCP-4208-1. |

Foreword: The following is a transcript of an interview conducted on 08/10/2018. One video uploaded by SCP-4208 was allowed to stay public for the duration of the interview. |
Interviewed: SCP-4208-1 |
Interviewer: Researcher Crane |
<Begin Log> |
Researcher Crane: Hello SCP-4208-1. How've you been? I’m Researcher Crane. I’m to interview you today. |
SCP-4208-1: I’ve been doing good! How’ve you been, Mr. Crane? |
SCP-4208-1 begins to move letters from the comments up to the search bar to spell “crabs”. SCP-4208-1 jumps into a video titled ‘crab aquarium hour long footage’. |
Researcher Crane: Quite well. SCP-4208-1, I’m gonna ask you some questions’. |
SCP-4208-1: Alright! If possible, I’d like to ask you a question first. |
Researcher Crane: I don’t see why not. |
SCP-4208-1: Why were my videos deleted? I thought the people here were my friends, but it seems soon after I met you, my videos were all gone, and my memory has been getting fuzzy. That didn’t make much sense to me, though. Friends don’t vandalize their friends’ things. |
Researcher Crane: It was for ya safety. It was for the best. Marigold told ya ya’re anomalous. Most people get freaked out by anomalies, so we gotta hide em from the world. That’s just in cases like yers, where the anomaly’s not dangerous. It’s a whole different story for the dangerous fellas. |
SCP-4208-1 jumps out of the video, returning to its original form. It jumps to the bottom of the search results, sitting at the bottom of the page, cross-legged. |
SCP-4208-1: Oh. |
Researcher Crane: Yeah. So, SCP-4208-1. You mentioned your memory being fuzzy following the deletion of your videos. You remember where you go when no videos are currently uploaded? |
SCP-4208-1: I don’t quite remember, no. Sometimes I’m in a kitchen, my kitchen. Other times, I am nowhere. A void. I cannot recall many memories about it. All I know is it is dark and tight, and it makes me sad. I wish I could recall my lost memories. |
Researcher Crane: [Pauses] I see. 4208-1, where do your videos come from? How are they uploaded? |
SCP-4208-1 doesn’t respond for two minutes. |
SCP-4208-1: I make them. I record them, and when I am finished, they are on the internet. Just like you would! |
Researcher Crane: For me to upload a video to the internet, I’d have to go through the process of editing and all that jazz. Also, it’s odd seeing your videos have no IP address. |
SCP-4208-1: Hm. I did not know that. I guess that is odd! What is an IP address? |
Researcher Crane: It’s a device’s address that’s used to identify the device with other devices. Electronic devices. |
SCP-4208-1: Oh. That is a lot more boring than I thought. Hey Mr. Crane? |
Researcher Crane: Yep? |
SCP-4208-1: Do you consider us friends? |
Researcher Crane: [Chuckles] Of course I do. |
SCP-4208-1: Can you re-upload my videos? |
Researcher Crane: I… can’t. I told you, containment reasons. Sorry, SCP-4208-1. |

Foreword: The following is a transcript of an interview conducted on 08/24/2018. |
Interviewed: SCP-4208-1 |
Interviewer: Dr. Marigold |
<Begin Log> |
Dr. Marigold: Hello, SCP-4208-1. How are you? |
SCP-4208-1: I am fine, Dr. Marigold. How are you? I searched of those crabs. Mighty cool! |
Dr. Marigold: Good. When did you get to look that up? |
SCP-4208-1: When I talked to Dr. Crane. He did not appear aware when I began to look them up. In fact, he did not really look at me all that often. |
Dr. Marigold: Researcher Crane is blind. He knew what you were doing, there was special equipment set up to tell him. He probably didn’t stop you because he was observing you. |
SCP-4208-1: Oh. Does “blind” mean “unable to see?” I picked it up from the context clues you left. |
Dr. Marigold: Yes. SCP-4208-1, were you aware that other YouTube channels differed in function from yours? What was the key sign? |
SCP-4208-1: I was not aware, no. Now knowing that they are it is quite upsetting. How are they supposed to appropriately reach their audience? [pauses] Dr. Marigold, do you think that you could re-upload my videos? Dr. Crane could not. |
Dr. Marigold: SCP-4208-1, it’s not about Researcher Crane being physically unable to, he is able. It’s that we have to keep your videos off the internet for containment. I thought he told you that. |
SCP-4208-1: Containment? I do not recognize this term. |
Dr. Marigold: It basically means a system or structure to prevent the release of something. In this case, your videos. |
SCP-4208-1: What is so wrong with my videos? Why must they be contained? My purpose is to be with people! You have stripped me of my purpose. Do you not enjoy my videos? |
Dr. Marigold: Is this connected to your love to make friends? Also, I have no personal bias towards your videos. |
SCP-4208-1: What is a friend? |
