[The man on your video screen is wearing a tux. He's not James Bond though.

In fact he's a writer from New York City, who was on his way to get married (for the third time) when he blacked out while driving and woke up in a pod. It was by far the oddest experience he's ever had, and Richard Castle has had many odd experiences. At first he thought he was in some kind of government facility, that the SUV with the black out windows that had been tailing him had put him here where some kind of weird experiments happened. Waking up in a pod in your boxers is enough to throw anyone. He'd put on the clothes he'd been wearing, found in the footlocker next to the pod and managed to locate the rest of his stuff. His cell phone was deader than dead, of course, so he couldn't call Kate. It seemed, other than the creepy pods filled with what looked to be people, nobody was around keeping him in one place. He wasn't a prisoner, so he decided to explore.

Stepping out of the hatch, he observed a completely different world. It was not New York. It was possibly not even Earth.]


Uh. I take it this isn't the Hamptons?

[What the hell has he gotten himself into now?]

[Oh...well...this guy looks like he came from a Caprican ball. She doesn't recognize him, or the name Hamptons, but...since she's on a break from fixing her ship, Sharon pipes up cheerfully.]

No, it's Verdana. A whole new planet. You okay? No bumps or bruises or anything I hope?

[Oh...boy...]

Another planet. As in, not your homeworld.

Either you came in on Salvation or you crashlanded like I did. And I'm going to assume you woke up in a pod, with that reaction.

I don't...think I've ever seen that one, sir. But if you came in on a pod you're better off than me. I'm stuck here till I get my ship operational again.

[She chuckles mildly. She knew what movies were, of course. They had them back on Caprica.]

I'm Lieutenant Sharon Agathon, from the Battlestar Galactica, Colonial Fleet Command. What about you?

Novels, huh?

[Cool.]

If you woke up in the pod, you have a guaranteed ride out of here when they get Salvation back online. Me? I don't.

Yeah, I do. Have you published many?

[Nods]

Yes. I crashed here after my navicomp went nuts.

Probably so. How are you at solving actual mysteries, though?

I do...know what police are. The Twelve Colonies were pretty civilized, when...they was still around.

[Because in Battlestar Galactica? Nothing is ever okay and everything always hurts.]

I'm sure the police here could use a hand though.

Yes, there is. I've got a friend or two on the force.
