So I've got three guesses as to what this is right now. [ The voice that comes through the communicator is quiet and calm. The undertone to this voice, however, is not at all -- there's a hint of panic and a whole lot of anger underneath. ] One, I traveled back in time to land in some Twilight Zone-Silent Hill bullshit. Two, I've finally cracked and I've gone insane, which, y'know, could be worse, my brain coulda put me in somewhere much more terrifying than a room with a camera -- or three, I'm dreaming. [ Which is what he's afraid of. There's a beat, and then the sound of a lighter being flicked on, a cigarette being lit. ]

Watch, m'just talking to myself. I don't even know if anybody's out there. [ It's been an hour and he hasn't seen anybody yet, after all, though to be fair he hasn't gone very far. He's waiting. Come get him, nightmare. He's not scared of you. ]

Oh yeah, that'll go over well, askin' the ladies to hula dance. Not creepy at all. [ The grin is evident in his voice though. ] Good, though. Nobody wants t'see me when I don't got cigarettes.

Well, maybe if you start it off, they'll all wanna get in on the fun. Might make a trend out of it, who knows?

[Or maybe 'Britney' just wants to get the newbie to do something silly.]

[ Snort. ] Why ain't you asked 'em before, then? You're more famous than I am, you got more influence. They all girlfriends who wish they was hot like you, Britney. [ Jesse that's the Pussycat Dolls. ]

[Gabriel doesn't know any better, one of many reasons why the Britney Spears disguise isn't one of his more usual disguises.]

I don't wanna abuse my power, kid.

Probably wise. Hey, I'll ask around bout hula dancing and let y'know the results, how 'bout that?

Thanks, kiddo. I'll keep it in mind if you ever need a leg up in showbiz.
