( 'Trapped' was a word that Joan was not particularly pleased to hear. Never, in all the cases that she has worked, did being trapped have a good outcome. Victims were trapped. If she were a victim - if all these people were victims - who were they a victim of? What was the motivation behind it all? )

Look, I just got here and thought I'd ask a few things on here.

( She hadn't wanted to ask the others that brought her to where she'd be staying. Usually trusting her instincts, she had been patient about getting more helpful answers. )

Could anyone point me in the direction of the law enforcement around here? Or any type of hospital for that matter?

( Best to start with what she knew best. Getting to see how people were treated when they broke the law or if they were injured might prove to be useful. )

I'm Joan, by the way. Joan Watson.

[That gets a thoughtful look from Shepard.] In my experience? People are resilient. Adaptable. They constantly surprise you, what they can deal with.

I guess that's true. ( she could say the same about where she's from. living in new york was all about adaptability. she had seen amazing recoveries from addiction ) How have you held up through all of it?

I've seen a hell of a lot worse. If anything, I'm just trying not to go stir-crazy stuck here all the time.

Worse than this? If you don't mind my asking, where?

Ah, Earth. The milky way. All over, really. It'd probably be more helpful to say when, which is the 22nd century.
