[Anyone viewing the hologram will notice Charles looks a lot less... well dressed and put together than usual. While he isn't really rocking the Goth chic of some of the other inhabitants, this general ensemble isn't something you'll ever see him wearing back on the Barge. He's also standing up, because this counterpart swapped out his damaged spine for a new one, and is currently working off the debt by being a Repo Man who is pretty chill about his job and is partnered up with his bff Erik.
He smiles a bit, seeming fairly normal and casual about the whole thing, and clearly not bothered about the environment or oh god, someone is coming after my organs thing.]
Bit strange, isn't it? Everyone says they know what they're getting themselves into when they sign the contract initially, but as soon as the deadline on payment approaches, it becomes "I don't remember" and "you must be wrong", "this can't be happening". [He laughs a little flatly, somewhere between a little amused and disbelieving.]
What else were they expecting, honestly? You don't find quality goods lying around in the street. And I have it on good authority we're doing our best to accommodate for everyone's needs.
Perhaps people should be sure they understand what they're signing before going under the knife.
[He finishes the recording by humming a few bars of the GeneCo jingle, which - if you strain your ears a bit - is playing distantly in the background on his end before the feed cuts.]

No, but isn't it interesting? It's just so organised of them. Good effort, and that. Do you know how many times I've heard I'll pay tomorrow?

And I suppose it won't matter, in a few days.

That's just it, isn't it? There's nothing. But there's some claim that their story would stand up to a fresh medical examination. Either it's a desperate bid for time or there's something new on the market. If it's the latter, I suppose they'll find it in the autopsy.
