BUILDING 52 --I did it. You're really here. An astronaut. Jesus. --Who's that? --You probably have a headache. From the chloroform. --What? Where am I? Where is this place? Who the fuck are you? --You don't recognize me? --What? No. What is this? --That? It's a chain. It's attached to that post. Don't pull on it. --Holy shit. Holy shit. --I said don't pull on it. And I have to tell you right away how sorry I am that you're here under these circumstances. --Who are you? --We know each other, Kev. From way back. And I didn't want to bring you here like this. I mean, I'd rather just grab a beer with you sometime, but you didn't answer any of my letters and then I saw you were coming through town so-- Really, don't yank on that. You'll mess up your leg. --Why the fuck am I here? --You're here because I brought you here. --You did this? You have me chained to a post? --Isn't that thing great? I don't know if you'd call it a post. Whatever it is, it's incredibly strong. This place came with them. This was a military base...
