(From Slashy version)
Dear Jeanie,
Well, I'm back. I'm sure you've been dreadfully worried about me these last nine months. Sorry about that. Actually, I was writing this to ask you a very big favor. You see, while I was… gone, I met this woman and we became quite good friends- the whole captive bonding thing, you know? Anyway, she was pregnant, but something went wrong and she didn't make it. Before she… died, she made me promise I'd take care of her child. I want to, but I'm afraid I didn't come out of my captivity unscathed. You see, there's a chance that I might die pretty soon. So I'm asking you if you and your husband would be willing to take this child if I don't make it. I need to know soon, the clock is ticking here. I'm sorry about springing all this on you in a letter. I'm really sorry, Jeanie.
Love always,
Meredith Rodney McKay
