Anti Matter Page #5

Could this feel anymore ominous?

At all?

You don't have to do this, you know?

Yes, she does.

Now relax, exhale.

You're screwing with the readings.

Nate?

For the record, I'm

really, seriously scared.

Don't be.

This is all you. / Picture the Nobel.

One last thing.

What if I grow tentacles? /

Or testicles.

A great big, harry pair of... /

We phase matter.

We take matter and we pass

it through a wormhole.

Unaltered, pass it unaltered.

Your point?

The numbers really are dropping.

We should go. / Just matter.

What if we're...

What?

Nothing, no.

Good luck.

Nate?

You owe me a movie, cool guy.

Good luck.

Okay, and on three, two, one.

Hi.

Hi, I'm James. Do you

have a moment? / Sorry.

No, don't be.

No, I'm kidding.

You know this place? / Look.

They're using it for animal

testing, you know that?

I'm sorry.

Not today, okay? / Okay,

no worries, maybe next time.

What's your name? / Ana, yes.

Ana, that's a lovely name.

I used to have a pet rabbit called Ana.

Ana, you're in science, right?

We don't really use animals.

Oh, of course, of course.

But you do... / Sorry, look.

I support what you're doing, I do.

Just not today.

Well, hello again.

How're you feeling?

I shouldn't drink so much.

Can't remember sh*t.

I hope I didn't...

Good.

So, we've pretty much

lost all of our capacity.

We're back to atoms for the time being.

Everything?

That was quick. / Was it really?

Yeah, so basically

that thing is mothballed

for the moment.

We do have computer models. / We have.

Sorry.

We have it modeled, yes.

So we can run analytic

tests on the server.

Until we get funding.

Yes, until then.

Everything went okay though, right?

Nate?

Yeah, of course.

Why do you ask?

Okay, so what do we do next?

What do we do?

Okay.

So firstly, how are those tests?

Tests? / You're the chemist.

You said you needed to

take samples, run tests.

Memories, so many wonderful memories.

Do you remember the video we did

from the photos of Loredo?

I found it upstairs.

I will pack it as well. / No, mom.

Ay, let me pack it!

You can throw out

anything you don't want.

That doesn't make sense,

it's more work for both of us.

Just throw it away,

or give it to charity.

And the comic books?

Just put them in the trunk.

The trunk?

I told you, everything

has to fit in a small trunk.

But there's so many things!

Well, that's the point of a small trunk.

You kept it, mom. / Okay,

Don't get antsy.

How are thing otherwise?

They're...

Things are fine.

Just a bit of a cold, but I'm okay.

Don't work too hard.

I miss you.

Hello?

Okay, okay then.

Just please, leave my stuff and go.

Please leave my work!

For f***'s sake!
