[The video jumps around a little, shaky as he moves around the rec area. Thankfully he's going at a pace that can actually be seen by the human eye. The screen is just a shaky shot of the pool area, jerking a bit as he speaks.]

So, the pool. That's a really nice touch. Almost makes up for us being stuck in space. But, you know, I'm going to give it to you guys because I've always wanted a pool- well a bigger pool. We had one of those blow up kiddie things, but no one over the age of eight wants to be caught dead in that thing. Anyway, this. This is a step towards making this place less like a weird prison sentence.

What's not cool, on like the top ten list of really screwed up things about this place, is what you're lacking. You do have some issues with with rabid dogs and apparently you guys blew up a planet, like what? And while I'd really like to punch whatever lost my headphones, hey. I'll live. But the worst thing?

[Peter finally comes into view, a frowning mess of silver hair and bad fashion.]

I've not found a single Twinkie in this place. No Ding Dongs, no Ho Hos. Not even a Sno Ball. You guys are really killing me here.

Uh, I was thinking more medbay, but whatever keeps you calm.

Hey, don't worry. A guy like me will be fine. I'm quick enough for it.

Still. What's that saying? 'You don't have to be faster than the bear — just faster than the guy running next to you'. Keep it in mind if shit really goes south. They're not exactly paying us, here.

[He laughs, mischief in his tone.]

I think I'm fast enough to get both me and the guy left behind away from any bears. But don't worry, I'm really into self preservation.

[ That raises an invisible eyebrow. But she'll let it be for now — even if half the way Peter talks is giving her Honey flashbacks.

Her kingdom for a more detailed personnel register. ]

I'm going to hold you to that if we ever meet a space bear. Thanks for the heads-up on all this.

Hey, if we ever meet a space bear, I will totally save your ass. Then you'll owe me one.

Yeah, sure.
