Is this--hello? Is this working?

[The frame moves to show Penny. Her hair is whipping around her face, propelled by the relentless winds of the second circle.

Freckles! Where--are you at home?

[Unfortunately, Penny has to talk much louder to be heard over the howling wind and the screams. She can hear Doll well enough if she holds the device right up to her ear, though.]

...I think it's hell.

[freckleddoll]

Ignore you if...

[She shudders, trying to block out the images and feeling terrible for not helping and horrible for being helpless to do anything even if she could bring herself to leave the apartment.]
