[The video clicks on to a thoughtful looking Matthew--maybe a little melancholic, but definitely thoughtful. He's got a bottle of milk next to him, and seems to be...sitting on a rooftop.]

Hey.

I know we all get stuck here and wonder about our captors and all, trust me, I wonder too.

But today's a holiday, did you know? I didn't know either, because it's not a holiday in my world.

[A contemplative look at the bottle of milk before he continues.]

...Someone else here taught me about it.

Ever heard of Tanabata? I don't know much about it, but I guess it's worth celebrating.

[And he lifts the bottle of milk in a bit of an ironic toast.]

Have you guys learned anything from the people around you? You might as well not waste the trip.

It's written with the characters for 'seven' and 'evening'. Aka, it's celebrated on the seventh day of the seventh month.

When exactly that is depends on which calendar you're going by, but if you assume the month to be July, then there's only one day that qualifies.

[Hint: it's not today.]
