[the video flickers on to reveal a man who looks quite the worse for wear; his hair is mussed, his face smudged, and his clothes look a bit singed]

Ah, hello there. I got this at the shop – fascinating little thing, really, never seen anything quite like it.

[he pushes a sooty hand through his hair]

From what I can work out, this is a network for those stranded here? And I seem to be, at the moment. I crashed… [he waves a hand in a vague direction] right outside the city.

[as much as he attempts to sound cavalier, there's a strain to his voice, guilt and worry and suspicion]

I'd like to learn more about this place, now I'm here. Particularly why so many people seem to have ended up on it.

[he flashes a smile, bright and cheerful in his grimy features]

I'm the Doctor, by the way.

[not at all petulant, really] She does see quite a bit of you, yes.

I prefer to think of it as experience.

Very amusing, Doctor.

I can assure you, I'm not here to hurt any of these aliens. [This is true. If only because he doesn't actually know why he's here at all. Of course not coming here with intent to hurt them doesn't mean he won't hurt them if it comes down to him against them.]
