Thru the Moebius Strip Page #2
No problem.
Then all we got left to talk about is price.
Mom, I gotta talk to you.
In a minute.
- No, mom, it can't wait.
Dad's alive, ok! I just talked to him.
I don't have time for this right now.
Well, Me neither. You wanna unload some veggies or
not?
Definitely.
Caroline Weir?
Yes.
Agent Po, Galactic Intelligence.
Were you aware that a restricted database was breached
from your computer account?
You must be mistaken.
To the contrary, Mrs. Weir.
I'm absolutely certain.
I'm telling you, no one has access to my account
but me, and...
Listen lady
when you wanna talk tomatoes,
Don't go, please. I'll get rid of him in no time.
I Don't think so.
Accessing restricted databases is a class three offense.
Pending the completion of my investigation,
I am suspending your trading license.
How am I supposed to make a living?
I am also placing you under house arrest.
Lucky for you, you have a nice house.
If you leave your biosphere for any reason,
you will be subject to immediate arrest and incarceration.
That's great, just great.
The details are all here. Good day.
I am an automated surveillance droid.
Any attempt to tamper with my systems or prevent me
from tracking your location is a violation of the law...
That..., right there, that's a violation of! Oh, that does
it.
But mom!
Your little prank just cost us our trading license.
And now, we are forbidden to leave the farm.
Mom, mom listen I know how crazy this all sounds.
But I'm telling you the truth.
There was an energy field -
a ring of light.
He was trying to come through. He was almost through,
mom!
Jack
do you know how many times in the past 7 years you
told me you've heard your Father's voice?
I know, but this was different.
He said to go to Callisto.
Yeah, D. R. Droids.
He was sooo close, mom.
- Let it go, Jac! No! No I am not letting him go!
Calisto...
Calisto...
Dad's lab was there.
I almost forgot, I found it in one of his packets.
Let's go.
I remembered that you father did mention something
and of course you wouldn't have known that.
I'm sorry I never believe you.
Oh... It's OK, MOM.
You know Jac, there's a lot of your father in you.
You don't think they're looking for us, do you?
No way.
What?
It looks like we've got company.
...No way do we outrun him,
not in this old beater.
I guess you were too young to remember your mom's
favorite past time.
- You mean giving me a hard time?
- Okay, second favorite.
- No, what?
Rebuilding cruiser engines.
Way to go, mom!
This is office 54 requesting back up.
Suspects have violated house arrest and are subject to
immediate apprehension.
There's three of them. Go go go.
Bring your vessel to a stop immediately, you're under
arrest.
Whoa, Mum, out off control!
I need you to help me find a place to hide.
Wugh! Mom, there, Head in there.
Stay sharp, this lady's good.
Stay sharp, this lady's good.
Mom, sensors show something moving up ahead
But I can't tell what it is?
Mom, Scavengers
I hope it is scavengers.
- Looks like he blew a gasket. - I hope his insurance is
paid up.
I don't see them on sensors. Suspects escaped.
Return to base.
I can't believe you just pulled that off.
Transport 9075 will be departing from launch bay 5.
All passengers and cargo...
Still no sign of them.
D.R. Droids
hello there!
Well
Well, hello there! C'mon in!
I've got the droid to fit your needs.
The Keyton 972?
Strong and efficient. Lifts 200 tons with one arm.
Doesn't break a sweat. Even in 7200 degrees!
But we're...
Ah, how about Hawkings III?
Cracks into "The Universe in a Nutshell" as well as any
bank account!
All we need...
IDMT pioneer. EX 2 butler
Alpha 450...
sucks, plugs and dries in any oxygen-based
environment...
Retro-fratphammonia planets? Can do!
Glad to hear it, but we're lookin' for someone with another
name...
Hymo.
Well you found me.
What can I do for you?
I'm Jac Weir,
and this is my mother Caroline.
Give it to me.
You're a droid!
You have amazing powers of observation.
That's unreal... You're practically perfect.
Practically? I'm road-tested, son...
Simon created me to protect his secret.
From everyone but you two, that is. For seven years
I waited for you to come
because my access level cannot...
the door to Simon's lab.
Only you, Jac, matches the DNA passcode.
Mission complete!
Arthur!
Arthur! Arthur!
Arthur... Can you hear me?
Looks like his power pack's been trashed.
Oh! I got an idea.
Oh! Mrs. Weir.
I'm so sorry for my ghastly appearance.
At least you're still in one piece.
What happened, Arthur? Where's Simon?
In the Virgo cluster.
27.2 million light years away.
This must be it. Dad's secret project.
It's a Moebius Field Portal, based on the theory of
"Internal Transfer Loops."
Maybe you could explain it a little more... simply.
When a three dimensional cylindrical loop is given a 180
degree twist,
it becomes a two dimensional mathematical oddity
known as a Moebius strip.
By twisting two of the existing parameters of space,
Professor Weir was able to manipulate the third
parameter,
which is distance...
You call that "simply"?
Professor Weir created a conduit
to any location in the known universe.
All you have to do is walk through here
and you can go anywhere in the galaxy!
That's how Simon wound up 30 million light years away?
Actually 27.2.
After the Professor went through the portal,
he was attacked by one of the planet's indigenous
population.
This foliage crashed through the gateway and disabled
the Portal.
My function was to protect Professor Weir. I did
everything in my power to save him, but...
I failed.
Can you get the Portal up and running?
That would depend on the extent of the damage.
You did it!
Connection established and secured.
The Professor's safety specifications
require a minimum Stability Factor of 90% before
accessing the Portal.
Field integrity failing.
It's losing stability!
Jac!!!
I'm going after my son!
No! You will be vaporized!
Then bring it back on line!
Emergency shutdown initiated.
Dad? Dad?
How beautiful
I need the secret of this magic. Guards!
Shepway foretold that Ragis was the one who would
restore Raphicca to glory.
We cannot let her death prevent him from fulfilling his
destiny.
I'm sorry Simon.
You were so close to returning to your family. What pain
you must be feeling.
We've all suffered.
We did no such thing!
Shepway conspired with the rebels.
The king was within his right to punish her.
Stop! Tor murdered Shepway. How dare you try to justify
it.
What does your intuition tell you, Ragis? That Allana and
King Tor found Shepway's crystal in the rebel cave.
Proof of what? Only that Shepway distrusted Tor.
But Tor is the King of Raphicca.
But Tor is the King of Raphicca.
