1:21:20
They're on their way again.
1:21:23
12 minutes left.
1:21:30
What a time to run out of sugar.
1:21:37
Looks like quite a way.
1:21:39
We'll reach the base of the brain soon.
From there it's not far to the site of the injury.
1:21:44
But we're running out of time.
1:21:49
Where's that light coming from?
1:21:52
It's from the outside world.
1:21:54
Filtering in through Benes's eardrum.
1:21:58
That puts us right here.
1:22:00
Which means we can head for
the subarachnoid cavity.
1:22:14
The Proteus has passed the inner ear and
is now in the channel leading to the brain.
1:22:19
I thought I'd die when the scissors
dropped on the floor.
1:22:25
- It's against my better judgement.
- To wait until it may be too late?
1:22:30
- I've done all I could with the laser!
- All I ask...
1:22:32
I'm only asking him
that he test it beforehand.
1:22:36
If it doesn't work,
it's beyond my power to fix it.
1:22:39
But if it does, there's no telling
how long it'll stand up.
1:22:42
It's a jury rig at best and we'll need
every second of use we can get out of it.
1:22:46
That's why I don't want to put extra
strain on it by running unnecessary tests!
1:22:50
- Dr Duval, I insist thatyou test the laser.
- I'll do nothing of the sort!
1:22:54
The operation is my responsibility.
I won't do it.
1:22:56
All right. As usual you want ityour own way.
Only this time there's more at stake.
