waking up

[Well, Ladd, you've just approached the stuffiest, most serious person in the room--a nerd named Dr. Egon Spengler. Spengler gives him a cursory glance, taking in the red splotches on his jacket, his speech mannerisms, his callous and otherwise overconfident posturing. His expression barely shifts from its deadpan state, and his voice seems to match--barely rising above a dull, flat drone.]

No. I haven't seen any "dames" around here. Nor have I seen any of the motel staff.

[Early 20th century American slang. Spengler adjusts his glasses, careful not to make direct eye contact with him. The circumstances surrounding his appearance in this place only seem to grow stranger by the minute.]

Judging from my observations, this place does not appear to be New York--at least, the New York that I know. [He gestures to the nearby window.] For example, New York does not have the sufficient climate to grow palm trees. I would guess that we are currently located in some sort of sub-tropical zone somewhere in America, as the United States are the few countries that actually use motels, and the fact that most of the signs outside appear to be in English. Unless I can get a better look at those palm trees, I would narrow down our location to either California or the southeast coast.

[Sorry you got a five minute lecture on geography]
