They find us interesting in some way. No doubt it's the reason they brought us here. I wouldn't go so far as to say they care about us - if they did, they wouldn't have ripped us from our homes.

[The most apt analogy in his mind is a zoo. It doesn't seem wise to frame it as such right now, when the girl is obviously unsettled by whatever rumour she's received. He thinks the concept is evident enough, besides.]

Sooner or later, they will probably broadcast a message at us again. Every so often they speak over the communication channels if they see the need.

They speak?

No; we only hear their voices. I don't think anyone has seen their faces. I've only heard the woman myself, but I've been told there's a man also.
