Flubber Page #3

It`s closed, okay?

Whoa!

Hey! Huh?

Oh! Huh!

- Whoa-oh!

- Yeah!

Ha!

Mmm! Whoa, Weebo! I got it!

Great. Now what are you

gonna do with it?

Oh! It has incredible inertia.

Mm, maybe it`s

just glad to see you.

- Weebo?

- Yes?

- Do you know what this is?

- Flying rubber?

Yes. That`s what it is.

It`s flying rubber.

It`s flubber!

Ouch.

- Thank you for waiting so long.

- Yes, ma`am.

I`m sorry, Sara.

Are you going to tell me,

"l told you so"?

No, no.

- I`m going to give you a ride home.

- Thank you.

There you are.

Careful. Watch your gown.

I`ve got it. Thank you.

It`s perfectly safe, Weebo. It`s just

an ordinary radioactive isotope...

that Weber is now removing

from the lead containment unit.

Very good, Weber.

Then you place

the radioactive isotope...

carefully behind

the sliding shutter.

You see, the sliding shutter

works just like a camera.

It regulates the flow

of gamma radiation.

Instead of billions of random particles,

you have a precise stream of energy.

Now we carefully place

the sliding shutter mechanism...

underneath the flubber.

And l`m burning up in here!

Weebo!

Over here.

The gamma radiation triggers a

metastable decay in the flubber itself.

- Right.

- Which releases enormous

quantities of energy,

- and that`s what propels the flubber.

- Of course.

Now doing it this way,

I believe, is a lot more scientific...

than dropping it

or kicking it...

or bombarding it

with light bulb photon flashes.

- Absolutely.

- I believe...

by controlling

the gamma radiation flux,

we can control the movement

of the flubber itself.

- Cross your fingers, Weebo.

- Here`s hoping!

- Good luck.

Oh, yes!

It works!

Descent, gradually.

Back up again. Yeah!

My wedding. Oh!

- I`ve gotta go, Weebo.

- But you haven`t finished

the experiment yet.

You`re just getting started.

You can`t just stop in the middle.

The wedding. Oh, I can`t

miss this one, Weebo.

I`m aware of the time.

Thank you.

But your days are wrong.

I`m getting married Friday, 6:30 p.m.

- No. No, you`re not.

- Why not?

Because you`re not

getting married, Phillip.

- Yes, I am.

- You missed the wedding.

It`s 6:
30 in the morning.

No. No.

Yes. I`m sorry.

- It is?

- Yeah.

Sara.

Sara?

You have a lot of nerve

to show your face around here...

after what you did to me

last night.

Will you please let me explain?

No. There`s nothing to explain.

You weren`t there.

For the third time you left me

standing at the altar.

I`m sorry with all my heart.

But please listen to me, Sara.

Please. You know me.

You know how sometimes I can get

really fixated on an idea?

- I don`t want to hear it.

- Sara, you`ve got to hear it.
