:15:00
Yes. Absolutely.
:15:02
And the liver that was about
to explode in my face?

:15:05
Perfectly sound.
:15:08
Excuse me, could someone tell me
what's going on here?

:15:12
About 370 years ago,
you died of a massive embolism.

:15:19
I don't remember anything
about that.

:15:22
You and the others were frozen.
:15:26
Cryonics, you know?
Freeze you now and heal you later.

:15:30
Yeah, I've heard of it,
I just never gave it much thought.

:15:34
- How did we get here?
- You were in a space module.

:15:38
The wacko that sold me this scam
:15:39
said that in orbit,
there'd be no brownout.

:15:43
Yes, several cryonics companies
fell into disrepute

:15:47
because power failures adversely
affected their refrigeration system.

:15:51
Their stocks were severely depressed.
:15:54
The whole deal was a long shot,
:15:56
but I figured I'd give them
the dough instead of my ex-wives!

:16:03
But, son, I figured
it was a bunch of hooey.

:16:07
Hooey?
:16:10
As in hogwash, malarkey, jive.
An intentional fabrication.

:16:14
There you go. You got it.
:16:18
Now, if you didn't contract for this,
who did?

:16:22
It must have been my husband,
Donald.

:16:26
If it was new and foolish,
he'd pop for it.

:16:29
Well, it's the first thing
he bought into that worked.

:16:33
I, for one, never had a doubt.
:16:35
My stock in this company must have
split a dozen times by now.

:16:40
Actually, the process of cryonics
was never more than a fad.

:16:44
It did not continue beyond
the mid-21 st century.

:16:49
I need to make a phone call.
:16:52
- A phone call?
- Yes, I have provided for myself.

:16:55
I have a substantial portfolio.
It's critical that I check on it.

:16:59
Let the bank know I'm alive and well.
