[ Too bad no one invented smello-vision, or this transmission would be a whole lot more attention catching. Charlotte lets the camera pan over her kitchen table that is practically overladen with an assortment of pies: full size and cup, three-plum and pear with gruyere. Maybe she got some of Ned's stress baking or maybe prison life is just a little too boring today. ]

So... I think I went just a little bit overboard. I was supposed to bake some pies for a friend, but I guess she's not here anymore... at least, I haven't seen her around. [ A quiet thought to Dawn, one of her first friends and also the first to go. ] Either way, I have a lot more pie than I need.

Anyone want a slice? I'm in Apartment [ Number ] in Sector 4. I'll keep the door open — just follow the smell!

	Oh, I've known how to bake pie a long time. My aunts taught me. [ They're also responsible for the habit of baking cheese and honey into the thing. ] Ned just... I guess he elevated what I already knew into a new, better level. They do say the secret ingredient in a good pie is love. Homeopathy works just as well though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The secret to a lot of things is love, if you ask me. It may sound very weird but that's why I'm so great with my hacking, because I love it. I can't really share it with people like you can do with pie, sadly. My team appreciates it, but it'd be nice if I could do something awesome around here. [Like send everyone back to their worlds and loved ones.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hacking... that's computers, right? I don't know that much about them, but couldn't you create a game or something? Heaven knows we have way too much time on our hands around here. [ Evidence A: pie mountain. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Got it in one! Computers and code and all things virtual. And yeah I could whip up a game or something, but really most of my free time has been spent trying to figure out a chink in this place's armor. Not easy, and I'm no slouch in this department. Honestly, I probably could stand to spend more time on it, but it feels like beating my head against a wall in hopes of bringing it down. Not encouraging, nor conducive to a good state of mind.

	Maybe that's the problem. You're focusing so much on the problem that you can't find a solution! All work and no play, you know... Ned used to do that all the time and stress himself out until he couldn't even remember his name. Maybe you should take a step back and do something else for a while? (Reply to this) (Parent)
