The Last Mimzy Page #5

Synopsis: The siblings Noah and Emma travel with their mother Jo from Seattle to the family cottage in Whidbey Island to spend a couple of days while their workaholic father David Wilder is working. They find a box of toys from the future in the water and bring it home, and Emma finds a stuffed rabbit called Mimzy, and stones and a weird object, but they hide their findings from their parents. Mimzy talks telepathically to Emma and the siblings develop special abilities, increasing their intelligences to the level of genius. Their father becomes very proud when Noah presents a magnificent design in the fair of science and technology, and his teacher Larry White and his mystic wife Naomi Schwartz become interested in the boy when he draws a mandala. When Noah accidentally assembles the objects and activates a powerful generator creating a blackout in the state, the FBI arrests the family trying to disclose the mystery. But Emma unravels the importance to send Mimzy back to the future.

I know I've seen it.

There it is.

I knew it.

It's 12th century,

it's one of the oldest known.

Oh, my god...

That is incredible.

It's almost an exact match.

And you know something else?

This is the same image...

...from my dream.

Larry...

Hey, Noah...

You know what time it is?

Yeah, I know, it's late, but...

You gotta see this.

What is this? I mean

it's way past your bedtime, bud.

It's... Uh...

What is that?

It's part of my exhibit

for the science fair at school.

It's amazing, how did you do that?

It was easy.

First i discovered that spiders

are sensitive to sound waves...

...and seem to move when they

hear various frequencies.

Then I experimented

with the frequencies...

...to make them move in

specific patterns.

I calculated their movements

with my computer...

...and I re-programmed them.

Their circular webs started changing

into something more elongated.

I call it...

...the structured bridge.

This geometric design is

extraordinarily strong...

...and would be equal to

a beam that could hold...

...1,000 pounds per square inch.

Did he do this on his own?

Did you help him?

No, he's done it all by himself.

He's just, sort of,

taken off all of a sudden.

You know,

in the last month or so.

His sister is highly gifted too.

Mm. No, no, no, no.

This is more than highly gifted.

This is genius.

He's gonna win the

national science fair.

...that exist today,

a bridge of this type...

...could span

the entire solar system.

Are there any questions?

"It was brillig and the slithy toves...

"Did gyre and gimble in the wabe...

"All mimzy were the borogoves...

"And the mome raths outgrabe. "

Wait, did that say mimzy?

Uh, yep.

Let me see.

Look, she's got mimzy too.

- With the white rabbit?

- Yeah.

- Ok.

- And this is mimzy.

She came here to find me.

I don't know why.

White rabbit, just like in the book.

You know, he was the one

who was always late...

...for a very important date.

Where did you get it?

We found her on the beach.

Noah thinks she's from outer space...

But he doesn't really know.

Outer space.

Do you believe in aliens?

Aliens? Like flying saucers

and things like that?

Yeah, I guess I do, sort of.

Noah does too.

Oh, well... boys.

Do you think aliens

would ever come here?

Some people think they

might be here right now...

...and we don't even know it.

Really?

But what do they want?

I don't know.

Noah doesn't know

if they're good or bad...

They might help us or kill us...

...or maybe steal our brains.

Steal our brains?

If I show you something

promise you won't tell?

Oh. Like... a secret?

Really? Cool!

What kind of secret?

I can do a magic trick
