"I'm indeed sorry to say that I have no speech planned to explain why I'm about to do this. You see, I'm running rather short on time, though I soon won't be, in face, I'm considering buying back several hundred years worth of time, traveling back to the days when fear played a prominent role, and I'd like to take you with me."
