lf l knew, l'd explain it, All l know
is that the ink is 600 years old,
l know, This is my father,
This is him,
- He's just playing a prank,
- No! No, there is no way
he would risk contaminating the site
as a joke, He just wouldn't,
- Did you carbon-date the ink?
- Of course,
- There's got to be another reason,
- l did it three times,
Like l just said,
but he wrote it 600 years ago,
l don't care about lTC's policies,
l'm his son, l wanna talk to him now,
l found the professor's glasses,
They were on his desk,
lt's a perfect match, Look,
to make sure,
l'm sick of this, Either somebody
tell me where Professor Johnston is
or l report a kidnapping
to the authorities,
Have l made myself clear?
Just tell us when and where,
What is it?
Doniger's sending a plane for us,
We're going to New Mexico?
Let's pack up, guys,
Good morning,
Steven Kramer, lTC,
Frank Gordon, security,
- Where's my dad?
- You'll see your dad shortly,
- Where's Doniger at?
- Doniger's waiting inside,
- Mr, Kramer will explain everything,
- Tell me,
How come we have
a 600-year-old document
- with his handwriting?
- Pleading for help,
l'll explain as soon
as we get through security,
lTC is constantly advancing itself
in science,
30 years ago, the business world
was revolutionized with a machine
that sent documents anywhere
with the push of a button,
Doniger's vision was to do that
with 3-D objects,
- Like a fax or something?
- Exactly,
He's trying to send actual objects
from one place to another?
- Follow me,
- But that's impossible,
He would need a quantum computer
with millions of processors,
We used them to build a machine that
could fax three-dimensional objects,
l'll explain these mirrors later, lt would
put FedEx and UPS out of business,
- You actually made it work?
- Yes,
Across a room,
But we wanted to send things
across continents
This is the prototype,
The prototype?
So that thing that we just passed,,,
- Exactly,
- ,,,is the real thing?
We gave it a thousand times
more power.
We tried to send something
from New Mexico
to a twin machine at a lab
in New York City,
Now, here's the interesting part,
at its destination,
A few hours later,
it showed up back here,
Wait a minute, So if it went missing
between New Mexico and New York,
- where did it go in the meantime?
- We asked the same question,
So we sent out a camera
over and over,
and we got back photos of the
same location, a hillside with trees,
That's when Mr, Doniger
made the brilliant decision
