Albert is a Companion in Stray who can be found sweeping the alleyway behind the Nightclub of Midtown.
He speaks of a friend he misses, named Fifi.
Trivia[]
- His wearing of a traffic cone on his head has been suggested as a reference to Pyramid Head from the Silent Hill games, but a more likely reference for this instance of the Lampshade Wearing trope is the tradition of drunkenly placing traffic cones on the heads of statues, particularly the Duke of Wellington in Glasgow. His own path to wearing it may have been similar: drunks from the Nightclub might have placed traffic cones on his head almost every night, until he eventually stopped removing them.
- He mentions a male character called "Fifi". This might be taken as a reference to the crude "Ah, Fifi" joke, but that joke requires a female Fifi, a recent contact with her, and a sense of smell. A more relevant reference might be to the 1965 movie Circus Angel, in which the hero is a man called Fifi. As well as the male Fifi, and being French, another connection is that the director of the movie was another Albert: Albert Lamorisse. A significant theme in this movie was clocks.
