[Video clicks on, and lo! It's a teenage boy with a shock of grey hair. He's walking as he talks, wandering the halls of the Barge apparently aimlessly.]

Uh, hey, I don't wanna cause a stink, but there's been some kind of terrible mistake here. My- uh, my parents, are going to be losing their minds back home in New Jersey...

[There might be something ever so slightly shifty about how he says this, but then again, he is a recently deceased teenage boy. He could easily just be nervous.]

All of this-- this inmate stuff? Yeah, you definitely got the wrong guy for that. I got a perfectly normal, crime free life, back home with my family. Yes, we cheat on our taxes and have the occasional three am family-document-shredding-party, but who doesn't? By nine am we're back to pancakes and oatmeal, and that, [decisive finger jab at the screen.] Is how you live the American dream, right?

[Private to Inmates]

So, does anyone ever actually escape from this place?

Well, that all depends what you mean by escape.

Hello, lad. I'm Mason. I'm your friendly neighborhood grim reaper.

Where in Jersey? I might be able to get a message to them.

[Probably not, honestly, but. He's curious.]

[Jean looks skeptical - because come on, kid - but she's smiling.]

Yeah? I don't think my parents ever did that. Pretty sure my professor engaged in some tax fraud, though. [For the greater good!!]

I wouldn't know about that, but we're not permitted to release inmates.

No.

Please don't assume you're the exception to the rule and drag us into some kind of tiresome breach again.

They do not. Your protests are meaningless.

My American dream involves [murdering people horribly] sleeping at three A.M.

I'm afraid I don't know New Jersey very well. [This may or may not be a lie.] Where do your parents live?

[He's putting emphasis on his parents for a reason: it sounded like it had the potential to be a stumbling block.]

Yeah, definitely never had a family-document-shredding-party.

There was an inmate rebellion, the way I hear it, but it seems it didn't stick. Not heard of anyone escapin' yet.

[He gives a low chuckle.]

And that sounds just like the American dream. Least the reality of it, rather than what they sell on the box.
