No. No! You KNOW who's in there!
[Up in the North Wing, there's a pounding on one of the doors. Someone or something wants out. But what's worse is the crying. The sounds of a woman, frightened to the point of tears, pounding on the door, hoping someone will let her out.]
P-please... [She sobs.] Please, Harry, open the door.
[The sobs continue for a while longer, alongside the desperate pounding on the door.]
Please don't leave me alone. Please!
Somebody?
[The weeping begins again.]

bloodtears away from her eyes. But then the moment has passed and she slowly pulls herself up to her feet.]Th-thank you. I... I don't know how I got in there.
[She blinks up at Roy, then looks past him in confusion.] Where are we?
no subject
Okay maybe he still noticed.]Uh, shit. [She must be new. He hated having to explain this kind of thing, because most people just shrugged it off as lunacy anyway.] Some island. No one really knows how we got here or how to get out.
You okay, though? I mean, ya need to sit down or somethin'?

[She was starting to get the idea that something was wrong with this place, and not in the way everything had been wrong before. If only she could get some White Claudia to help with the transition. Maybe it'd even make whatever this man was saying make sense.]
Islands? But I was in a hospital last.

[Trying one of the rooms here in the North wing was too risky. Every time he entered one he ended up in some weird place -- and now wasn't the time to risk it for a place to sit. He gestures for her to follow a bit awkwardly.]
I can explain what I know on the way there, if that's cool with you.
no subject
This place is really quiet. It's creepy.

His posture straightens a little.]
It ain't so bad once you get used to it. You're usually pretty safe around here. ["Usually", but not always.] I know it don't change the fact that you were kidnapped 'n all but...
[Small comfort?]

He tries to laugh it off, as if that'll make her feel better.]
I mean, that's the word for it. But at least they don't have us chained up or nothin', right?
[Maybe if he ignores the fact that he said "usually" she'll forget all about it, because oops.]
no subject
[Roy has failed spectacularly in comforting Lisa. The nurse looks even more nervous.
no subject
I wish I had an answer for you, doll. No one knows. But lemme tell you, it really ain't as bad as it sounds. [He shrugs.] Sure, this ain't exactly where you wanna be right now, but considerin' how normal kidnappings go, we're pretty lucky.
[He's...really trying, okay.]
