[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?]

Ok.. what do I need to do now?

[This sucks. But at this point he doesn't really see any other option. He needs a new pair of clothes too.]
I'll go check it out. Thanks for your help... what's your name?
Re: Video
[Right, she has your name and a bunch of others, but she never introduced herself.]
I'm Kaylee Skywalker.
Video
[Yeah he's not just going to let that go. That's not exactly a common name.]
Video
Skywalker. Coupla months now.
Video
[He'd say it's not possible but then he reminds himself that he's in space and logic is completely gone at this point.]
Video
[She's heard about the movies. They all have. But she doesn't usually think about it.]
Video
[Because there's no Kaylee in Star Wars. He's very confused.]
Video
Place called Mayfield. 'Verse is stranger than we ever reckoned. This ain't the only place that grabs folk from all over.

[But Kate wasn't in the car with him. Chances are, she's back home waiting for him at the altar.]
Video
Video
[Thinking he left her at the altar. He would never do that.]
Video
Video
Video
[Yeah, about that]
Over a year. There's usually only about three of us, and she's the size of a city.
Video
And no natives here who know how to fix it?
Video
She ain't from here. Crashed 'bout a century back and the locals are just as confused as the rest of us.
