[ Piper counts it out on her fingers, though Ted can't see that: ] Wishing myself home. Asking politely if I can go home. Tapping my heels. Looking for a portal. Asking through the journal how the hell to get home. Using ... [ She trails off. How to say 'using my powers' without needing to go into an explanation? ] ... the magic of the castle.
[ She sighs ] We're stuck here, buddy. Going to bed and waking up is only going to show you how stuck you really are. The Castle will send you back when it wants to send you back, your feelings not considered.
Sure, I'll just go grab my car from the garage. [ She rolls her eyes. ] If we can't walk out of here, we sure as hell aren't going to be able to drive. But if you try, more power to you.
The further you go outside of the castle and into town, the more obscure it is out there. I don't think you'd get very far even if you did wish up a car and manage to drive yourself away from the castle. Your home isn't beyond the borders of the castle.
Au contrare, it takes days to walk to some places where for a car it takes a few hours.
Okay, maybe we're not on Earth. Maybe we did get abducted by some alien species or whatever. But maybe if we traveled away from this place, we could actually find some... more pleasant alien species that would help us get out of here, and back home!
[He lists off a couple movies.] There's Star Trek, Star Wars... besides, we're all practically aliens to each other, aren't we? And we're trying to help each other! ... I think.
And there could be plenty of reasons. They might not even know we exist! We'll never know for sure what's out there until we start looking.

Besides, if there were a pleasant alien species, then why the hell are we all still here?
