[It takes Kori a moment to count backwards from ten and then to turn her device on. She selects video - it'll be easier, after all, if her face is recognizable. She barely glances at it before she turns away to speak in hushed tones to her own communicator from home.]

- Arsenal? Please come in, Arsenal - Roy? Jason?

[When there's no answer, there is a subtle slump to her shoulders. After a long moment, she turns her attention towards her device. ] ... Communications are down to my home. Obviously. I feel it unwise to request council with those responsible for my displacement. I will ask anyway: who has brought me here?

[A pause. ] I am Koriand'r, second Princess of the planet Tamaran. I do not take lightly to kidnapping.

I'm looking for a human - he has red hair, green eyes and wears an ugly sort of hat. And - another, also. Black hair, blue eyes. They will answer to Arsenal and Red Hood. [Another pause; she glances, almost anxiously off to the side. ]

... Oh, X'hal. Why now of all times?

An experiment.

[If Spock listens closely, he will he at six car horns an the sound of a truck crashing. ]

I see.

You will doubtless find other hypotheses—

[A pause. He frowns. To his sensitive Vulcan ears that was quite the crash.]

Pardon me, what is happening?

[fiamme]

Ah - there was an unfortunate traffic accident just now, involving a mailbox.

[She is about 600 x more calm now. ]

[..... Right.]

You are not injured?

Not at all.
