Why isn't it working? Come on!!

[Nux's voice carries, a little too loud, before his face appears on camera. He looks into the device, squints a bit as if studying it and then--]

Is this on? Is it working? [Yes!]

This is so shine... [He grins. He's in his uniform, war paint scrubbed off his face but there are scars clearly visible. On his lips, nose, and two large lumps on the side of his neck, but his grin is wide and enthusiastic.]

I've seen things I never thought possible before... that I never thought I would do in a million years. How many of you out there have come from places like this?

My home... my world, it's dead. Salt as far as the eye can see. Water was rationed... We were told not to depend on it, that it would make us weak when it was finally gone. It isn't like here at all, where we have food and water...

When I first arrived... I thought it was Valhalla for a moment.

[Even rationed, everything was still more plentiful than at home. He pauses, thoughtful. There was more point to this than all that though.]

Tell me, where did you come from? What was it like and do you want to return to it?

Euh... [That's a little more complicated. And she does have an answer, she's just wondering how much of it he'd understand.] It's a field. A specific electrical field that causes atoms to remain suspended. This field is essentially projected over each section of the city, allowing it to hover above the clouds. Or below, if the occasion calls for it...

[Like when they fired on the Boxer Rebellion.]

Mm... working on what?
