Case #29: Video

[It's an extreme close up of a Victorian constable! George has accidentally turned the camera on himself while picking up his communicator in an attempt to figure out what the strange device is. He looks a little older; a little stockier, because no one escapes the ravages of aging, and 1898 has been kind of a stressful year, what with all of the meth, and Draculas, and outwitting the American government. All of the brass on his uniform is also particularly shiny, and he's wearing a pair of white dress gloves and an expression of general confusion.

And then you can see it slowly dawn on him. And then there's a dizzying shot of the floor flying past as George hurries to make sure that...

Yes. The toilette remains.]

Oh my goodness I'm back.

[There's the sound of someone flopping back onto a bed, and a close up of a quilt. The quilt has the spotlight for a good few minutes, until George remembers the communicator is still running. Normal view!]

Could anybody tell me when it is here?

...It's November 5th.

[Swaying a little? Yep.]

When it is here is always a difficult question.

November, I do believe.

Welcome back. It's early November, actually.

Are you all right?

Welcome back, George!

[Audio] As the other person who watches Murdoch, I feel I now must tag you into oblivion.

Doesn't that quilt just look so cosy? [Oh, the sarcasm.]

Let me see if I have this straight. You were given the ability to leave this place, and you decided to return? Of your own free will?

Well, we're outside of the timestream at the moment! What's the last thing you remember?
