:07:01
of Einstein's theory
of what, Eddie?
:07:03
Highway safety.
:07:05
Relativity.
:07:07
Relativity.
:07:08
- Didn't do your reading assignment?
- That's a funny story.
:07:11
See, science is a discipline.
:07:14
This department has trained
some of the best minds in the world.
:07:17
But nobody ever gets there
by just coasting along.
:07:21
I don't mean to sound like your father,
but I take pride in my students.
:07:24
I want to see them succeed. That means
doing the work, being persistent and...
:07:35
We'll fiinish up Einstein when I get back
from the applied science congress.
:07:39
In the meantime,
you guys have a couple days off...
:07:43
to prepare for your midterm.
:07:54
- Hey, Dad.
- Hey, Zak.
:07:57
This is a rare honor.
:07:59
Come on, I visit you at work
every now and then.
:08:02
But careful analysis reveals
it's usually because you need something.
:08:05
That's crazy.
:08:07
Can you co-sign for my car?
I got the down payment together.
:08:10
There's a few cars I liked at Benson's,
and their lot stays open until 9:00.
:08:14
Hold on a second.
Hey, Jer.
:08:17
Where's my stipend
on the NASA consultation?
:08:19
- We fiinished that job three months ago.
- Working on it.
:08:22
So maybe we can get there
around 7:00?
:08:24
Dr. Gibbs, your batch is up on the
mainframe. It's some pretty wild stuff.
:08:27
- I'll be down in a minute.
- What are you working on?
:08:30
Last weekend an old student sent me
a project he's working on with QT Labs.
:08:34
You remember Earl Dopler. One of the
best students to ever pass through here.
:08:37
That freak who used to come over
and eat a lot of potato salad?
:08:40
He isn't a freak.
Eccentric, maybe.
:08:42
Anyway, the word on this project
is very hush-hush.
:08:44
Let's just say that,
hypothetically speaking...
:08:46
it were possible to accelerate
your molecular structure...
:08:49
until the rest of the world
seemed as if it were standing still.
:08:52
- Cool.
- It's called hypertime.
:08:55
Imagine being able to perform delicate
surgery between the beats of a heart.
:08:59
This technology is going to
revolutionize medicine, science, travel.
