[Being his researcher self, Beckett is sensitive to nuance, and something about this story just doesn't come together right. Like there's a lot that is going unsaid. That's fine: that is, in fact, his expertise.]

If you could describe some of those animals, perhaps my Earthling knowledge might be helpful in identifying them. I assume you will want to know if there's further correlation.

[It's not a safe assumption. But he's testing.]

[ The temptation is there. It's why Rocket pauses, trying to decide if he wants to talk about this or not. For the first half of his life, he's wanted to know whether there were others out there like him. Now ... now he never wants to think about the fact that there aren't. ]

Maybe next time, when I'm in more of a nostalgic mood — instead of an abducted one.

[ Little does he know, it won't be long before he actually gets to see Beckett in the flesh. ]
