[The video flickers on unexpectedly, almost like someone bumped into the guide and turned it on accidentally. There's a girl in a pink dress with short-cropped hair standing at arrivals, leaning over the desk and looking absolutely beside herself. Her cheeks are stained with tears and flushed red, hands folded against her chest. The aliens working arrivals seem to be trying their best to remain patient with her]
I'm sorry ma'am, but you have to fill out the forms--
I-I'm sorry--! I'm just so... [she sniffles] ... I just get in the way, I-I'm sorry--!
Ma'am, the forms...
I-I just want to know... m-my brother, my friends. A-are they okay...?
Ma'am...
[she small girl bursts into a fresh set of tears and turns toward the camera so the viewers can get a suspiciously full view of her crying, pitiful expression. Perhaps turning said camera on hadn't been an accident after all.]
O-oh--! D-did I turn this on? Oh my... I'm so clumsy... I... h-hello? C-can anyone out there please help me? G-ganta? Brother? C-can you hear this?
