[ This video starts out much like any other - new person being mildly awkward, staring a little to the left. Sheepish might be a good descriptor for Peter at the moment. ]

Right, so. [ Which isn't what he planned to open with, hang on, let's rewind. ] My name's Peter Petrelli. I'm from New York, year 2006. I've read back on the network enough to get a decent idea about what's going on, but not nearly enough to make sense. I did read that we have a medbay, and that I was here before. So uh, sorry about this, but I don't remember being here the first time around.

I guess what I'm trying to say is — who do I actually talk to about getting on the medical team?

Oh, and I can't figure out the space microwave. A little help with that, maybe?

Says the guy who just brought up calcium degradation. I think you'll fit in just fine. [And more seriously:] Far as I know, nobody's been here past the 12th -- month, jump, whatever you want to call it -- marker. As for the longterm side effects... one of the other Science guys could probably give you a more detailed answer, but a lot of it's still, ah, in the dark. So to speak.

It's a profession thing, come on. What, you don't have any curiosity about the long-term effects space has on people, now that you're in it?

Which, honestly. Space. I'm not sure I'm buying it entirely yet. It sounds pretty damn crazy.

In all honesty? The only thing you've got wrong is "sounds."

You're serious.

[ he sounds serious. and also "sounds" is apparently a bad word around here. ]

How bad does it get?

Well, you just missed the ship deciding to go on standby and lock us out of our rooms for three days.
