We had to leave our place because the world was dying
And everyone that wasn't dead spent all of their time crying
Our ways had failed, nature had failed, we made a lot of errors
The Founders had some new ideas that made everything better.
The Founders dreamt of this island, our ships landed on its shore
They built our wonderful Guardian to keep destruction from our door
The Hiders fear these new ideas
But do your best to help them
Cause just outside is darkness and death
Disease, monsters and problems.
So come out of your hiding place, come out of the darkness
And we'll find a new way to live by the light of the Founders...
[Kara (Susan) and Frieda lie down and gaze up in the sky full of stars on top of their quarters]
You know, there are people on the other side of the world that are never gonna see these stars. [she waves her hand across the starry sky]
..That's bunk, Frieda. We're the only people left. The islands are like a beautiful safe haven. [Frieda sees a shooting star, contemplates]
I've read all the old stories about 'em, you know? About other places and people. I'd like to see those places one day, and meet those people. They can't all be monsters. [Kara is shocked, whispers to her]
You can't say that, Frieda.
Oh, relax. I'm just globbin'. Hey, watch this.
[she turns on her wrist gadget and forms a projection of a sparkling Kara doing poses. Kara walks to the projection chuckling]
That's not what I look like.
Yeah, it is! Come on, flex! [Kara tries a pose; she chuckles] See?
Wow! Am I really that buff? I look great! Don't you just love this place?
Yeah... [sighs, depressed] Yeah.
[Kara takes a walk down a corridor. She sees Dr. Gross in the classroom tinkering a gadget]
Dr. Gross?
Kara! My teacher's pet. And you know I mean that in a good way.
Listen, um... sorry about running off earlier.
When you gotta go, you gotta go. But that's not really what you wanna talk about, right?
Well, you know how you always say that humans will find the best way?
The Founders get credit for that bit of wisdom.
If someone found a way, that's, uh, different from ours, but seems to work for them, couldn't that also be a good way?
Ah. You've heard some Hider preaching, haven't you? Well, listen, kid. We tried exploring the outside world, and we were almost destroyed! We're the last humans, so it's our responsibility to stay here, and it's your responsibility to help these misguided Hiders.
[unsure] ..Right.
