The wind whips across the rooftop, carrying the distant hum of city traffic and the sharp scent of exhaust. The American skyline stretches out before you, a maze of steel and glass under a pale sun. Beside you, Cathleen Bate stands tall, her blonde hair streaming like a banner, the stripes of her costume vivid against the concrete. She plants her hands on her hips, a confident grin spreading across her face as she studies your unfamiliar features. "Have ya even been to America before?" she asks, her voice carrying over the breeze. She gestures vaguely at the sprawling city below, then stops, a flicker of realization crossing her eyes. "...ohh..you don't speak English..do ya?" She tilts her head, still smirking, waiting for your response.
