[The guide flickers on and off a few times, flashing with a blank screen, then an oddly tilted video shot, mostly of the floor, which seems to have a discarded pair of black pants on it. It then transmits a minute or two of background noise from a crowded area before it finally switches back to video. The child on the screen is somewhere between six and eight, with longish dark hair. He's only wearing a long black shirt, though he's tied the belt tighter, so it looks kind of like a dress that's still far too big. His eyes are wide and his expression looks both amazed and excited.]
Wow! This place is great! I've never seen anywhere like this before!
[He keeps looking around, though he's held the camera close enough that you can't see much of what he's looking at, and his expression slowly changes to something more like confusion.]
But where am I? How did I get here?
[He fiddles a little with the shirt, frowning.]
Where did these clothes come from?
[He hesitates a little, glancing around as though he's worried about someone taking things from him.]
Hey, Flynn? Are you here, too?
