Abducted

"Isn't it obvious?" he says softly. "We're all alien abductees. True, you don't see them often, but they're there, watching us. Sometimes they like to come look at us from a window, always up high. As far as I can tell, we're on a humongous spacecraft."

Jerry pauses and looks solemnly at the number on his wrist. You lean in closer to show you're still listening. You blurt out,

"But that man! The one with the needles, surely you've seen him? He looks human to me." Jerry nods,

"The doctor? Yeah, he seems human. But he's different from them." he grips his wrist like it's hurting, "Nobody's been able to figure out what his deal is, though."

The other people who have been listening to you and Jerry nod in affirmation. Jerry goes on in a bitter tone, "We don't know why we're here. Those stupid robots won't tell us. You'll see soon that life is pretty boring around here.

"We wake up, we eat, we go to the gym to exercise, we eat again, rinse and repeat until its time to go to bed and do it all again the next day. Oh, but that's not entirely true, no sir. Once a week, if we've been behaving, we go to the Theater, and that's-"

Jerry, probably unintentionally, has been letting his voice get louder. A G-Model stops where we're at and looks at us with blank white eyes. There is a pregnant pause in the air. It must be waiting for you and Jerry to explain yourselves...
