[There's the sound of what seems to be someone speaking urgently, becoming louder and louder as the voice gets closer to the journal.]

Oh, God-- my face . . . can't feel anything-- what's...

Terri? Terri, are you in here?!

Can't breathe-- My arm... good lord, my arm! what happened...?

[It's at this point Hank catches his reflection in a mirror. There's silence for a moment, followed by a drawn out yell.

Anyone on floor 3 are likely to hear this, especially as he barges into the hallway.]

Hopefully not because he did something wrong...

[Frowns] I wouldn't cover for him if he did.

He uncovered a conspiracy within the military. He was going to cut it off at the head when we were attacked.

I wish I were there.

If wishes were fishes...

...people... do leave eventually, right? We can't honestly stay here forever.

[She nods] They do. It's just that no one seems to have any control over when that is.

Then I guess all we can do now is wait, and try to learn as much about this place as we can.
