[[Nick addresses the assembled group.]]
Nick: As Patty has already said, nobody should be jumping to conclusions. We're going to approach this rationally and scientifically, in as controlled of a fashion as possible.
Nick: Our first priority should be to establish how long we can maintain a presence over there before we succumb to the time-slowing effects. Without that, we're taking a gamble.
Nick: Based on the scanner results, I can probably come up with an enhanced measuring technique specifically tailored to this use case. [To Alpha-Duck, Pi, and the Inexplicable Speck!] Your help would be appreciated.
Nick: [To Fooker, Sharon, Patty, Trish, and Chris] As for everyone else, we'll need volunteers to be guinea pigs, with the obvious caveat that there's a non-zero chance of it being a one-way trip.
[[The others share an uncertain, uncomfortable glance.]]
