Well, hey there folks.

[The Mayor sits in his room, smiling cheerfully down at his communicator. He's a nice-looking man with a friendly voice and a kindly demeanor.]

Wow - what an adventure, huh? [He raises a hand to forestall arguments.] Now, before anyone gets mad at me, I'm not saying, "Gee, it's great to be here." I've got plenty to get back to - heck, I'm the mayor of the greatest city there is, and I don't want it to have to get along without me! But that doesn't make this anything less than an adventure, and I say even if we're mad or sad or something we still make the best of it.

So let's start out with introductions! "We all already know each other," you're probably all groaning, and I say to that, settle down, let me catch up a little. I'm Mayor Richard Wilkins of Sunnydale. And I'm really glad to meet each and every one of you, and I'm looking forward to having more adventures with you all!

And now it's your turn. Be nice to me, and step forward and tell me your name and what you do here.

An understandable misapprehension, as I have indeed passed a good deal of time, at one time or another, within Britain's shores, and on some occasions have passed for one of her citizens. But in truth I have no avowed allegiance to any nation on your [suburban nightmare of a ] planet.

On my planet? Hey - you don't mean you're an alien!

If the common understanding of our plight is to be believed, we are all in a sense aliens aboard the Tranquility. I may say, however, that I am neither human nor of Earth.

That's a good point, there. So...can I ask what you are?

But of course. I am a Time Lord, of the planet Gallifrey.
