[ Hello, world! This is Tony DiNozzo (otherwise known as Thomas Anselmo) waving for the camera.

… wait, camera? Yes. Camera. He’s grinning and seems far too pleased with himself for this, one arm reaching outside the frame to hold up the device he has. ]

Hey there. My name is Thomas Anselmo, as some of you probably already know. I hope it’s obvious by now, but we’ve got a new system up and running. Trust me when I say this one is about a thousand times better than the one we had before. Why is that? Well, great question, me. I’ll tell you! This particular network has enough strength to boost itself right across the Overworld and get you right in contact with anyone in the City. Or vice versa, since I’m doing that right now.

Sorry we didn’t have this ready when you guys first woke up. It was in the works; just didn’t want to keep you guys waiting for too long. [ He winks. His distraction is momentarily stolen by something past the camera, and he makes a few faces as if trying to converse without actually saying anything out loud. Thomas eventually rolls his eyes and returns his attention to the device. ] Also, Robert Franklin is back in the saddle. He’s in charge of anything to do over at the Library, so if you have a smart person question, you take it to him.

Got it all? Good.

—oh! One last thing... and this should be up soon, so: all of you in the City should check the southwest metro tomorrow. There’s a surprise waiting for you there. Free tickets and everything, so you can ride as many times as you want. Have fun.
