[It's a beautiful day at 456 Stone Street. Birds are chirping, puppies are yapping, and one brunette nation is sticking closely to the window, phone piece firmly held in one hand.]

I've been relocated. Again. While this looks like a more cheerful occupation and this is the happier I've seen the Eastern Bloc be in a while, I'd really appreciate the prior notice.

Although it's been a while since I've worn a dress.

It is. Very much so.

And it gets worse. Every so often, the town changes somehow. We call these changes "events." One week, they took away all food in the town. Around Christmastime, they first reverted us to younger ages, and then pushed us forward in time ten years. And most recently, the town turned into an exaggerated communist dictatorship.

[She rubs her temple at the irony]

Have those who tried to break free from this town been punished? Has anyone ever succeeded in getting away?

There have been punishments, yes. Six months ago, a riot was planned and carried out. Grady's response was to make us play a murder mystery game...one with us as victims or suspects.

And no one has succeeded in escaping. Occasionally, someone will be brainwashed, and when they return to normal, will tell of returning to their world in the meantime. But no one has escaped under their own power.

Then the others are telling the truth. I must have been here before, even if i don't remember it.

Wh-what?! You've been here before, but...but you don't remember being here?

None of it. This place is entirely new to me.

That is...

...I'm sorry. This must just make things all the more confusing for you.

Don't sounds so sad! If it can't be helped, then that's how it is! I just have to deal with it the best way I can.

You have a very admirable attitude. I'm impressed.

You're too kind to flatter me.

I'm Hungary, and I'll surely go for you for any more information, mister Kiske.
