[The camera, fixed in the ceiling, looks down on one of the hospital's isolation rooms. By the edge of a crumpled bed stands a man more usually seen in scrubs than the hospital gown he has on now.

Reinette? [A look up to the camera] Don't. You shouldn't have to watch this.

I'm not. [His voice catches in his throat and the screen shows him looking up through the window as though someone might come back.] But I'll get myself out, don't worry about me.

[This is a totally new tactic. All the others have aroused too much suspicion.]

[ Pretty convincing act there, Chase. ]

Are you being held against your will?

I'm being held here so I can't help while they're hurting my friends.

[Thanks, he's been practicing.]

[ It's paying off. ]

Who is holding you, the deities? Who are they hurting?

[Oooh, good idea. The deities.]

Angela-- my neighbour. My roommate. When I went to try and get them back they had be locked up here and told people to stay away from me. Do I look like I'm the dangerous one?

Of course you do not.

[ Funny, Chase, because she's talking to Angela right now and Angela says she's digging in a garden. Someone's not telling the truth. ]

Someone is hurting Angela?

[ WELL she was going to hang with Angela to see what was up with her, but now that all these stories are conflicting... Sorry for the barrage of questions, Chase. ]

[The questions are just making him want to find something solid to slam his head into. Why is this always so much work with you humans?]

I could try to find someone to help you, if you would like.

I don't think there's time for that. Who would you find?

One of the Doctors, perhaps, or Tony.
