1.0 | MONDAY MORNING - early
[ The camera opens up to a face far to up into the screen, squinting, and tipping her head, as if she's trying to figure this out. She tipped her head again -- this time in the other direction -- as if she's mystefied by the entire thing. ]
They said -- [ She starts, but then stopped, as she held her hand to her face. ] Oh! This is foolish! These instructions had to be lying!
[ But curiosity wins out, and Dolores sighed, and squared her shoulders, as if she's preparing for a presentation. ]
I have some instructions, that told me that this is... a way to communicate with others. I've never heard of something so...fantastic and ridiculous in all my life. [ Her voice comes in a breathless rush, the prospect is so shocking, clearly. ] Where I come from, we... we go visit, if we want to talk to someone, not try something so...impersonal.
[ She smiles, and ducks her head. ] This is so silly...
If I'm not just making a fool of myself, and there really are people listening... [ A pause, and her eyebrows knit together in concentration. ] We're all supposed to be from different places, right? What types of places are you all from? Is this...normal for other people? I'm afraid I feel out of place, and a little bit confused.
Oh, and my name is Dolores. What's yours?
