[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?]

No, it's Verdana. A whole new planet. You okay? No bumps or bruises or anything I hope?
[video]
[He's more banged up mentally than he is physically and he's in need of some answers. Hearing that he's on another planet is not a good start.]
[video]
Another planet. As in, not your homeworld.
[video]
Right. Verdana. You wouldn't happen to know how I got here, would you?
[video]

[At least there wasn't a ton of goo on him after waking up in the pod.]

[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?

[It doesn't sounds as impressive as hers.]
How is waking up in the pod better?
[video]
[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.
[video]
Really? So.. what you're saying is that whoever brought me here didn't bring you here?
[video]
[Nods]
Yes. I crashed here after my navicomp went nuts.
[video]
[video]
[video]
[Because they might not have police or whatever where this woman's from.]
[video]
[Because in Battlestar Galactica? Nothing is ever okay and everything always hurts.]
I'm sure the police here could use a hand though.
