[ Uh-oh, it's another newbie. This one looks pretty much like a normal 20-something human woman. Maybe a little confused, but that's not unusual around here, either, no doubt. ]

Hey, so, I've never been kidnapped before, but I'm pretty sure giving me a new communication device defeats the purpose of disabling the one I came here with.

Anyway, I'd like to see if anyone is here that I know - so... hi?

[ She waves at the camera. ] Tempest crew? Andromeda Initiative? I can't be alone here, can I?

[ She really doesn't want to be alone here. ]

We should get you scanned. There's gotta be a medical center here somewhere.

[ For the moment, Ryder remains serious, grave. ]

I'd agree with that, but I'm not sure I want to just give them certain... information. Whoever they are.

Then we find someone like us -- someone who got dragged here without asking.

It can't be too hard to find.

Am I a bad person for wishing Lexi was here? I just... I'm not sure I can trust anyone else with it.

On top of everything else, it's... weirdly personal.

I don't think that's a bad thing. Maybe if she was here, she'd lecture SAM into activating again.

[C'mon laugh. Just a little.]

I'll keep an eye out, all right? We'll get this figured out.

If anyone could do it, Lexi could.

Thanks, Vetra. [ Ryder makes a slight face. ] Sorry I'm not up to par - I mean, worse than usual.

[ She has really been thrown for a loop, here. ]

I think I'd pay to see that.

[She shrugs, with a game attempt at a neutral expression.]

Hey, it's okay. It's not everyday you fall out of the Nomad and end up in another universe.

We're both a little uneasy here.

Little bit. Kidnapping was not on my bucket list.

Anyway, nav point sent. Let's meet up, talk in private.

I'd be worried if I was.

Got it. Coming your way.
