Yeah, sorry about being the bearer of bad news there. You're correct in your thinking too. [The little changes don't go unnoticed, and he is genuinely sympathetic.] If it's any consolation? You don't need to worry about anything important that you have going on at home. When I said every when, I meant that. Whenever you get sent home, you'll be dropped off at the same point as if nothing happened. Odds are that you might not remember this place either.

The memories are part of the reason why some people don't really want to leave, actually. Among...other reasons. It's really not a terrible place, and everything is pretty cozy except for the random experiments that are run and this barrier that no one's broken yet.
Who knows? Maybe some of your friends are here too.
