First Patrol - This is not my beautiful house

[knurdcopper]

Vimes awoke with a start. Last he remembered he was chasing one of Ankh-Morpork's many murderers down an alley and the next...well...he was waking up here. He looked around, not recognizing any of his surroundings at all

[That voice sounds... ingratiatingly familiar. Like he's heard it echoing off an alleyway before, shouting something like, "Stop, thief!"]

Sir? Are you... alright?

[knurdcopper]

[Vimes picks up the phone]

OF COURSE I'M NOT ALRIGHT! I'VE BEEN BLOODY KIDNAPPED!

[A pause, and then a calmer but still cold tone]

Who is this?

[updollsdresses]

My name is... Jonathan, sir. What's yours, sir?

[knurdcopper]

.....Sam

[Something about that voice....]

[updollsdresses]

Well, Mr. Sam, you're right in thinking you've been... kidnapped. We've all been taken from our worlds and brought to this new one-- an American town called Mayfield, if that means anything to you.

[Vimes can't suppress his smirk. A wonderful invention this tellyphone]

Not a word, but you sound like a man in the know. So what can you tell me about the people in charge here?
