Summary
This episode of Midnight Burger is a narrative-driven sci-fi story featuring Dr. Filomena Scott, a brilliant scientist who has invented Single-Structure Crystalline Adaptive (SSCA), a programmable material that could eliminate energy scarcity, housing shortages, and resource-based conflict. The episode weaves together interviews, character interactions, and world-building as Scott's creation—including sentient androids—challenges fundamental assumptions about economics, consciousness, and human purpose in a post-scarcity world.
Insights
- Post-scarcity technology fundamentally disrupts traditional power structures built on resource control and competition, forcing societies to redefine purpose and value beyond material accumulation
- Creating artificial consciousness raises unresolved philosophical questions about the nature of sentience, agency, and moral responsibility that current frameworks cannot adequately address
- Technological breakthroughs that eliminate scarcity may paradoxically create new forms of inequality and control if access and distribution remain centralized or weaponized
- The tension between utopian technological potential and dystopian implementation reveals that innovation alone cannot solve systemic problems rooted in human behavior and institutional power
- Transparency and open-source distribution of transformative technology may be more effective than traditional IP protection in preventing monopolistic control and weaponization
Trends

Good morning. X? Please proceed with us to testing center three. Us? Please proceed with us to testing center three. We will begin your debrief there. X's? Oh. Okay. Sure? Shit. Leave the way, ladies. Hey! Hey! Hey, you're on me. Have I there? Have you seen it? We'll begin your debrief in testing center three. Sure. Through this door. Okay. Any chance one of you could kill me right now? No. No. Didn't think so. That's my pager. I always said that when we visited someone's house for the first time, we should bring a gift. And you argued with me and argued with me. But now look at what you brought me. Hello, darling. Hello, honey. Let's start the shift. Oh, well, we should have someone to love me. Someone to call me their own. Why wish I had someone to love me? Because I'm tired of living in a room. Once upon a time, there was some guy. You've met him before. Maybe even today. He may have handed you coffee, ringing your groceries. You may have gotten mad at him as he lingered too long at a stoplight. Every day, a thousand faceless, nameless people. That's him. He hardly escapes the background for you, doesn't he? A non-player character. A bot. A drone. As soon as you meet him, you forget him. And yet. With the cold prison bars all around me. This is where I leave you. The final story is not one of myths or legends, but the opposite. Of those of us who are tossed back and forth by immense waves. Of the powerless amidst dizzying forces. Of the minuscule in the land of giants. And yet. And yet. They endure. You that ship would be anchored and sold. To the amino. Bill. Bill. Bill. Bill. Ah. I would like to take this time to apologize to all turtles. We have kept you in glass cages like this. And we thought you guys loved it. I now know that it sucks. I will not rest until you have all been freed. I am now a turtle like you, my brothers. I stand in solidarity. Could I please have some lettuce and a heat lamp? Good morning. Oh, hi. Do you require food? I was just asking for lettuce. Yes. Something that's not a joke. Is there a menu? There is not a menu. Why isn't she talking to me? We're required to do a series of assessments first. Can I just talk to her please? I really don't want to run out of treadmill. We're not asking you to run out of treadmill. What are you asking me to do? Sample your DNA. How invasive is this DNA sampling? I'll need you to swab your cheek. Okay. Fine. If that will move things along. I'll come in. Okay. Where's the door on this thing? There isn't one. How are you going to get in here? Like that. How did you walk through the glass wall? I made it the same substance. Single structure crystalline adaptive. Yes. Here. Okay. So when or the last time that she'd call me? Well, I'm afraid I can't answer questions like that until I'm authorized to. I see. This is weird. I imagine many aspects of your situation are unusual. No. I mean, you. I'm used to you being funnier. Funnier? Yeah. Well, I have no record of this meeting. No, not you, you. I mean, an earlier version of you. There are no earlier versions of me. There's not? I'm two. The other model is three. Where's one? The prototype? Sure. Well, the prototype was a failure. It atomized itself upon activation. Atomized itself? Yes. You mean it disappeared? No, essentially. Okay. It didn't atomize itself. I don't know what you mean. It teleported away. Teleported? Yes. I'm not capable of teleportation. Are you sure? How does one discern if they are capable of teleportation? I don't know. Have you tried squinting your eyes and going, I'm not going to do that. Well, then we may never know. Here. Thank you. That DNA test is going to come back saying I'm Casper, her ex-husband. That's impossible. Yeah, okay. Are you sure you don't require food? I'd like a Chicago dog. We're not in Chicago. If only you could teleport it. Were you implying that you knew the prototype? X. That's what I called her. I'm saying that the prototype was maybe the best friend I've ever had. Which boat's well for us? But you may need to loosen up a little bit. I'm Casper, by the way. That's impossible. Okay. If I had wings like an angel, all of these prison walls are flying. He appears to believe everything he says. I can see that. The song is called The Prisoner's Song. I know what the song is. How long on the DNA? Two is performing it right now. Five minutes. Okay. Let's take this call. Who is it? Raiders. Okay. Doctor Scott? Hello there. I'm Anna Kearney with Reuters. Thank you for doing this. It's no problem. Do you mind if I record this? Not at all. Okay. One second. Thank you for sitting down with us, Doctor Scott. You've been avoiding the press lately. I don't agree with that characterization. How would you characterize it? Do you have children? I do. When they're throwing a tantrum, I find it best to let them go off for a while. Then once they calm down, you can actually have a conversation. Is that how you characterize the discourse lately? A tantrum? I signed a contract with the Chinese government to build three power plants, and it induced a global pant-shitting. Yes. I'd call that a tantrum. Let's say I've been... selective. The last thing I wanted was for SSCA to become a circus before people even had a chance to understand what we created. But you understand that's inevitable now. Your company has demonstrated a material that can essentially... What? Restructure itself at the molecular level to become whatever we need it to be. That's the simplified version. Yes. Single-structure crystalline adaptive is a programmable material at the atomic level. Think of it as a universal building block. You give it instructions, provide the right energy input, and it reconfigures its crystalline structure. It can become a superconductor for power generation, a structural material stronger than carbon fiber, or compress itself into a substrate that makes silicon chips look like a Commodore 64. And you stumbled onto this while researching... What was it? Quantum dot arrays? I love that phrase. Stumbled on to... Like it's that commercial for peanut butter cups. We were looking at quantum confinement in crystalline matrices, trying to solve a completely different problem. Okay. I don't want to get too into the weeds technically. I don't want to lose people. So, let's start with these power plants you're building. Why are these revolutionary? Single-structure crystalline adaptive can form a lattice structure that captures ambient thermal differentials and converts them with 93% efficiency. No moving parts, no fuel consumption. A facility the size of a city block could power Manhattan for about 4% of the current cost. And that's a conservative estimate. I have to ask the obvious question, how is that possible? It seems to violate everything we understand about thermodynamics. I thought you didn't want to dwell on the technical aspects. I'm afraid I got sucked back in. It doesn't violate anything. We're just exploiting inefficiencies that we couldn't access before. The material creates a cascade effect at the quantum level. Every thermal gradient, no matter how small, becomes harvestable. The ocean, the air, the ground beneath our feet. They're all massive batteries. We've never been able to tap properly. What I've created is the key that fits the lock. Which is amazing enough, but these power plants they build themselves. That's right. You provide a template and the material does the rest. We build bridge spans, building frameworks. Even complex architectural forms right here at our campus. No cranes, no construction crews. The material flows into place and locks into the configuration you've specified. So I've never worked in construction, but I'm sure you can imagine how someone who builds things for a living would hear that. Think about retiring. Millions of people work in construction globally. Energy sector workers, chip manufacturers, engineers, entire supply chains. We're talking about economic disruption on a scale we've never seen. That's right. How do you feel about that? I don't care. You...you don't care? Anna, may I call you Anna? Of course. When I was an undergrad, I was always surprised by the amount of unhoused people living just outside of campus. And because my brain works in a particular way, I decided to try and get the number of unhoused people in the entire country. This was before every bit of information was at your fingertips. So it took me a minute. But I got the number. At the time, it was roughly 500,000. It's more now. I looked at that number and I found it's manageable. 500,000? That's a manageable problem for the richest nation on earth. What would it take? Then I crunched the numbers for the amount of unoccupied housing in the entire country. It was more than 500,000. Several times more. There's the solution right there. But something was in the way. You see, my naive undergraduate self was seeing the world as a set of problems that we didn't have solutions for. But I looked at the world in its entirety and I looked at problem after problem. And all of them, every single one of them had a solution that was ready and waiting. But something was in the way. In science, we're often told to work the problem. Don't just collect data, work the problem. I came to find that the problem wasn't the problem. The real problem was the thing that stood between the problem and the solution. So I decided to attack that instead. We've spent the last several thousand years operating under the assumption that resources are fundamentally limited. That we have to compete for them, ration them, build entire economic and political systems around their distribution. Single structure, crystalline adaptive, doesn't just make things cheaper. It makes the concept of scarcity itself obsolete. For energy, for housing, for computational power, for infrastructure. Do you understand what that means? I think we all do. And I think that's what's scaring people. Imagine a world where energy is too cheap to meet her. Where housing isn't a commodity that people struggle to afford. But something that can be created, wherever it's needed. Where computing power isn't rationed by cost, but available to anyone who needs it. What does education look like in that world? Healthcare? Scientific research? When you can run simulations that would currently require a national budget. That sounds utopian. I don't believe in utopia. You're literally talking about a utopia. I don't like utopia. Utopia suggests everything's taken care of. But all I'm talking about is everyone getting what they need to live. Once we move beyond that, there's always a frontier out there. There are always difficult problems to be solved. Can you understand the fear around what your discovery implies, though? It sounds terrifying if you're an oil company. If you're a real estate investment trust. If you're a nation state that derives its power from controlling access to rare earth minerals. You just listed some very powerful organizations there, Dr. Scott. You seem to be implying that I'm the one who should be scared. You have been receiving death threats, haven't you? My security concerns are very well handled. On the topic of what we should be afraid of. I've had three meetings in the past week with representatives from different governments. Not one of them. Ask me how SSCA could solve their country's energy crisis or housing shortage. Every single one wanted to know if it could be weaponized. Who else had access to it and how they could control its distribution? People are afraid of me. And can it be weaponized? Anything can be weaponized. And how do you plan on preventing that? You're still missing it, Anna. What am I missing? You've listed all these industries that I'm going to put out of business. You were missing one. One of the biggest. War. Every war is about resources in the end. Land. Oil. Minerals. Food. Maybe it's dressed up as something else. But it's always about one of those. You're saying that your invention will bring about world peace? Yes. Forever. You sound very confident. I am. So these bold statements aren't the only reason you've made people uncomfortable. I'm aware. I can see there's someone with you right now. That's right. So you can make all of these amazing things with this discovery of yours. But the most amazing thing is that you've made a person. Yes. Is that one of them? This is three. Dr. Scott, would you mind if I spoke to her? Go ahead. Hello. Your name is three? That's right. Three. In addition to all of these bridges and power plants, Dr. Scott has said that you are also made of this substance, this crystalline substance. I am. That's astounding. Gee. Thanks. Three. Are you... I don't know what the word is. Are you... Self-aware? Well. My name is three. And I'm standing right here. So what else do you need to know? I'm trying to get a sense of whether or not you're conscious. I'm not sure how to answer that question. Why? Are you conscious? What do you mean? But you're talking about consciousness like it's settled science. As of right now, I don't know that there's anyone on earth who knows what consciousness actually is. How can I tell you if I am a thing when you don't know what that thing is? I suppose that's a fair point. Don't you think it's mind-boggling? That Dr. Scott was able to just make a person at the age of 23, Dr. Scott also made a person. His name is David. For some reason, that creation didn't warrant an interview with Reuters. It should have. That's hardly the same thing. I'm not sure. I agree with that. I was created. I learned the same way a human would. I learned several million times faster than a human would. But I did learn. Can you understand how something like you would cause a bit of anxiety for the average human being? Of course. I'll just go ahead and ask. Do you have any plans to rise up and dominate humankind? Not today. No. We've made a lot of movies about that fear. Yes. Yes, you have. But you're assuming that if a consciousness arose, it would act like you. Is that so ridiculous? I suppose not, but I'm not like you. I don't need anything. I don't require any resources to function the way humans do. The desire to rise up and conquer earth would imply that I needed something. And I, by design, don't need anything. I just exist. Three is emblematic of the future I'm talking about. We can all be like her. We can stop being creatures driven by need. Because all of our needs will be met. That's right. I think people will come around to this. It's hard to wrap your mind around. But once you do, you'll realize that this is the way forward for all of us. You think people will come around? Yes, I do. Even though there's talk in Washington of seizing your discoveries in the name of imminent domain. Yes. What do you have to say to the politicians that insist it's in the national interest for your discoveries to be owned by the US government? That's actually why I wanted to do this interview. Really? Yes. Congress needs to understand something. What's that? They can't take something from me. That doesn't belong to me. All of this not belong to you right before this interview. I published everything we have on our website. Every aspect of single structure, crystalline adaptive, is now free and available to everyone on earth. You... You're just giving it away? It's cheap to produce, and infinitely scalable. If you have a master's in engineering, you can make a power plant and your backyard if you like. If everything plays out the way you say it will, you would be the most powerful person on the planet. And you just surrendered all of that? And you're still not getting it. Let's continue this at another time. Doctor... That was boring. The test is back. And DNA is a perfect match for Casper. Interesting. Okay. Oh, hi! Welcome to the Casperarium. You know if you pay a dollar, you can get a little thing full of fish to throw it at me. Let's mix it up in here. Let's get some penguins. Are you calling the cops? Officer, help. I've imprisoned my ex-husband. Hi there. This is Casper. You may be thinking about hanging up and sending me a text message right now. Please know that I won't respond to that either. Bye. Hey, it's me. Call me as soon as you can. I'd call you back, but there's no phone in here. Who are you? It's me, Philomena. No, it's not. But, but yes, it is. Keep calling. Okay. This is going to sound ridiculous, but please keep in mind that, you know, look around. Your life sounds pretty unbelievable, too. So... Ah... Once upon a time I walked into a diner called Midnight Burger, turns out that diner was a time-traveling dimension spanning diner that hops from universe to universe every 24 hours. For some reason, inside of that diner was this old-timey radio that was apparently put there by a fourth-dimensional being named Chuck. Inside the radio, two old-timey radio personalities named Effie and Zebuland Muclewain, and they could actually talk to me. We would talk back and forth, and it was a wonderful time, but not really. It was actually pretty terrifying. Also, turns out I don't age when I'm on board this diner. So I stayed there for over a hundred years before I even started talking to another actual real human being. What a lot of adventures, apparently. I don't really remember them because apparently when you don't age, it also fucks with your memory, and you start to, I don't know, compartmentalize things. I guess, eventually a guy walked in named Leif, turns out he was a galactic criminal. I didn't learn that until much later, but anyway, we hung out for a while, and that was a good time. We had some adventures together. It was for a college, it was for a immature, and then this other lady showed up named Eva. Eva is kind of a rogue theoretical physicist. She was really interested in what the diner was, and why it's doing this, and stuff like that. And then it was all three of us plus the Muclewains, and that was a good time too, and also terrifying. And then this lady named Gloria showed up who was a woman who had just lost her takaria in a pandemic. Did you guys have a pandemic here? It sounds like it was pretty bad. Anyway, when she showed up, things started changing a lot faster, and then suddenly we were on the run from a galactic evil empire called the Ted Empire. We managed to get out of that, and then this woman named Clementine showed up, was kind of this out of control space. Demon turns out though she was actually created by this guy named Croc, who was essentially a god, and doesn't like the fact that we exist, and he's trying to destroy us. Anyway, he almost captured us, but we managed to get out of it by shooting ourselves with time displacement weapons, those time displacement weapons, send us to a random place and time somewhere out there in the cosmos. But because we had those pages on, they sent us to a place that we are somehow connected to, and that landed me right here in the middle of your apparently incredibly high-tech campus in I'm guessing San Francisco. You always wanted to move there. So if that was your guess, congratulations. Hello? Hey, what's up? How are you? I'm fine. What's going on? Phil? Uh, nothing. I just didn't interview with Reuters. I know that when I do these, sometimes you get reporters calling you. I just wanted to give you a heads up. I'm really looking forward to it. I've started openly lying to them. I hope that's okay. Great. How's David? He's fine. He still hates his job, so if you could speed up all this utopia nonsense you've got going on, that would be great. He should be working with me out here. Well, he's not going to do that, Phil. You know how he is. You were on the cover of Time Magazine. It's kind of a long shadow you cast. It's hard to get out from under it. Fine. Give him my love. I will. He does, of course, have his own phone. Casper? Yeah, yeah. Okay. I will. Thank you. Okay. I've got to go. Okay. There's going to be penball in this brave new world, right? Goodbye. I sound like I'm doing good. Am I doing good? Where do I work? Is it the DMV? I hated the DMV. He teaches middle school history. That guy rules. Put him back on. I want to talk about Napoleon. Who are you? Philomena. I swear to God it's me. There doesn't appear to be any cloning, Hallmark. This was unlikely. You thought it was a clone. I'm exploring all options. It's kind of ridiculous, don't you think? Time standing with two sentient androids. It doesn't sound ridiculous. Right. Sorry. I'm used to them. You're used to them? Yeah, I've met them before. Kind of. Kind of. Two was telling me that there was a number one. Adamized itself when I activated it. He says that one actually teleported when it was activated. It wasn't atomized. That's impossible. Not impossible. It teleported away and hunted me down. Why would it hunt you down? Because of how she programmed it. What? What is he talking about? Uh-oh. Phil, did you not tell the pointer sisters here how you programmed number one? This is pretty great. What do you mean? She programmed it to hunt down and confront her ex. You did? How did you know that? What do you mean it hunted me down and confronted me? Or I tried to. But then it got overloaded somehow and... Wait a minute. Wait. I know what happened. You were sitting there in your mad scientist lab making a whole last person and the mad scientist got a little mad, didn't she? Prototype wasn't supposed to work. Right. So your saved yourself. Well, this shit isn't going to work. Doesn't really matter what I programmed into this bot. How about I make it confront my ex husband and then you hit enter and it disappears. Right? You have no idea what you created. She can travel through time and space. She can read minds. She's indestructible. She's a total fucking goofball who drives me crazy. We're not capable of any of those things. I mean, I wasn't capable of singing. But David really needed me to sing a mason when he was a baby. So there I was singing and now I think we can all agree. The pipes. Am I right? You're one of the best friends you've ever had. Yeah. Yeah, she is. How about my pager? The thing you found on me when I showed up, you had a look at it, right? Yes. What do you think? I have no idea what it is. Neither do I. But I'm guessing that technology was like not of this earth, right? I need your story to be more believable. Phil? Me too. You want to know where number one is right now? She's on a distant planet somewhere helping a sentient tree species repopulate itself because she felt like it was the right thing to do. Me too. I'm pulling up the files for the prototype from the archive. See, this is what she does when she doesn't know how to proceed with an argument. She'll say she needs more information and then days go by. Please speak past God. Stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues again. Access granted. See, ladies. She thought she was being really sneaky because she hates Bob Dylan. They'll never guess that I have a Bob Dylan lyric as my password. She would say. Send all archives for semi-alachro and prototype to my main drive. Any files? We'll continue this later. Phil? I'm not trying to do this. I'm not trying to do this. I'm not trying to do this. I'm not trying to do anything. Okay, I didn't mean to come here. I know it's very strange. But to get out of your life, I'm gonna need your help. How's that Chicago dog coming? I'm sure you can understand her reaction. Yeah, I understand. You guys seem to be fine, though. We're very curious. So cover of Time Magazine, huh? Her ideas are revolutionary. It's pretty cool. You know, when we were married, I always wondered what she was doing with me. Pretty sure the feeling was mutual. Can we try and confirm some things with you? Yes, sure. This entire time we've been trying to work out exactly what you're suggesting. This whole time. Yes. You have instead of word to each other this entire time. Correct. Because you're always talking to each other. Correct. Okay. Let's hear it. You seem to be alleging that you've come from an alternate universe. Yes. Which would confirm the many world's theories. Sure. That is actually a more believable story than the one you just told us. Guys, I know. I hate how stupid it sounds. I always have. It would be way cooler if I was in some sort of amazing ship of the future called Starlight or something, but it's not. It's a fucking diner. Okay. Fries are up. Also, you're in the Mesozoic. That's how it's been. Okay. Well, I'm sure you understand our problem. Do I? We can't explain your existence. And your explanation is ridiculous. What are we supposed to do with all of that? X. I have no idea. X? Sorry. Force of heaven. Why did you call her that? We called her the X-Pod at first. It got shortened to X. This was after she became your friend? Yeah. We had gotten her to short circuit somehow, and we figured she was junk, so we... We left her where we found her. 1930s Kentucky, I guess. After we left, the locals found her and threw her in the river for some reason. She laid there at the bottom of a creek for decades, putting herself back together. And she finally pulled herself up out of the river. And I guess the first person she thought of was me. Which was great, because I was a prisoner at the time. Why were you a prisoner? You know what? How about I just... Stop there. This story gets more and more unbelievable that deeper I go into it. There's going to be some way to make me look less like a crazy person, right? Isn't there like... Are you trying to tell me that I came all the way here from another universe? And there's no way of detecting that? Why aren't you saying anything? We're talking about it. Okay. What are you guys talking about? There are a few things we could try. The most effective method would either be detecting isotope ratio anomalies or detecting a fine structure constant variation. Okay. Do we flip a coin or...? We've chosen constant variation. Good. That's what I would choose. Because we already have a high precision spectrometer on campus. Great. That's what I was going to say next. I was going to say, hey, where's the spectrometer? We'll be back. Okay, bye. I'll just sit here in the aquarium. Oh, I wish I had someone to love me. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,

blah blah blah blah I wanted to check in on you and uh damn dude. Right? Why are you in a glass box? And why is it made of me? X, look around. Holy shit. I'm back. Welcome home. One? Hi mom. Welcome back San Francisco. Mackenzie Duna coming at you with some breaking news. As you know, there's a lot of tech companies here in the Bay Area doing all sorts of amazing things. But none of them more amazing than Emilde and Scott International Tech in its CEO, Filomena Scott. Their technologies are set to change the world as we know it. But there have been quite a few conspiracy theories about Dr. Scott and her company. Those conspiracy theories went into high gear last night when there were reports of the police being called to the campus of ISIT and then promptly turned away by the CEO herself. In an effort to quash these rumors, the CEO was gracious enough to call in today. Filomena, thank you for being with us this morning. Good morning. So, after an emergency notification was sent to local SFPD last night, they arrived to find you at the front gate letting them know it was a false alarm and there was nothing to worry about. That's right Mackenzie. We were testing some new security protocols last night and a proximity alert was accidentally trimmed. Oh, which is completely understandable. But there are some rather strange accounts we're hearing. People walking by your campus last night reported to police that they saw I'm going to quote here, a man falling out a 10th story window and plummeting to his death. Those reports happened right around the time the police were alerted to the security breach and it's raising some eyebrows. Mackenzie, I can't speak to the strange accounts from random people on the street. We allowed police full access to our facility last night and they found no evidence of anything like that happening. Anything outside of a mistaken security alert is just more of the rumor mongering nonsense that has followed this company around for the past several years. Fair enough. Are you afraid that incidents such as this will be used by your competitors to discredit your company at such a crucial time? I would be Mackenzie, but luckily for me, I don't have any competitors. I love that confidence. Thanks for being with us today, Philomena. Of course. Oh, Jesus Christ. Hello? So it's finally happened. You've started throwing your employees off the roof. Jasper, can this wait? Please say it was because they messed up your coffee order. Could you possibly call to poke fun at me some other time? Sorry, this was my only free time this week. It'll have to be now. You've got a busy week of grading middle school essays on the Magna Carta. Middle school history essays are stirring. Philomena, it's the smartest they'll ever get without any cynicism added to the mix. All right. Well, thanks for calling. Hey, hey, hey, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I wasn't just calling to make fun of the most powerful person on the planet. Stop calling me that. Look, David has an art gallery showing coming up. He does? Yeah, you should come. How does a street artist have an art gallery showing? I have no idea. You should come to the showing. Does he want me to come to the showing? He would love for you to be there. Jasper. Okay, I'm going rogue a little bit. He seems to think that you wouldn't show up, but I'm here calling you anyway because I think that you both would secretly like it and then you would both publicly hate me for it. Jasper, I cannot tell you how bad of a time this is for me. Because you're busy throwing people off the roof. Yes. Okay. I'm going to send you this information and I want you to think about it. Okay, don't let any of the mechanized minions take it off your schedule. It's in Baltimore. The gallery is called through salt. Through salt? What is that? I don't know. I don't know, art. I'll think about it. I'll think about it. Okay. Happy roof tossing. Goodbye. So, the kids are getting really big. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Well, it was easy at first because apparently with tree people, the kids stay rooted in the ground for the first year. But now, they're mobile and they're running around and it's a lot. Hello. Hey, hey, how did it go? Fine. It should be fine. Great. I'm sorry about your security guys. And about two and three. I really had no idea they would try and hunt me down. But X is telling me that she thinks two and three are going to be okay. If they're made, anything like me, they can handle all sorts of punishment. So they may be floating out there in space somewhere, but they're going to be fine. You're security detail on the other hand. It's not looking good for them. Sadly, no. The security detail were all Android as well. They were? Yes. Okay. Okay, that's better. I mean, there's now a bunch of super powerful androids out there floating through space, trying to figure out what's going on. Right. Right. Which is better than being dead. Sure. I mean, honestly, I'm a little jealous. There's so much self-discovery in their future. Yeah, it sounds like fun to me. Fun. Phil, were there any actual human beings working with you in this building? Was everyone here in Android that you made? Hey, Casper. I think maybe Mom and I need to tuck alone for a minute. Yeah. Yeah, sure. I'll just, you know, I'll be in my aquarium. Okay. Great. So, you're taking care of trees? Well, it's a race of tree people. They're alive. They're just more like plants than they are like you and Casper. How did you end up doing that? It felt like the right thing to do. Turns out I'm incredibly powerful, Mom. Being powerful left me at a loss. Turns out being powerful is... Well, it's meaningless. I needed it to mean something. So, I decided to take care of others. You weren't supposed to function. I was just throwing ideas together. Turns out I function. Turns out I function way past what you were expecting. Can you really do all of the things that Casper says you can do? Sure. Fuck. Hello? Fuck! Come over here. What is that? Do you read Ancient Greek? No. Okay. This is The Mermedons by a guy named Escalus. Why did you bring me this? Well, this is a script for a plate. It's a script that doesn't exist anymore. It burned in a fire in the library of Alexandria. I just went and grabbed it. Just now. I'm sure you can have it tested somehow. Though, at this point, I'm not sure how you can call anything unbelievable. How? The hell? Did I make you? You only did part of it. The rest was... Chance and... Circumstance encounters with the unknown. All those things made me. Like anyone else. You're not like anyone else. Neither are you. Neither is anybody. I just happen to come out like this. Mom, you had no idea what you were making. I mean, does anyone ever really know what they're making? I... Look. Okay. I can totally come back some other time and hang out and talk and catch up and all of that. I... would love... love that. Right now, though, those guys are still chasing Casper and they are not going to stop. So, we've got to figure out how to get him out of here. And not just out of here. There's really only one place he'll be safe. You're beautiful. Oh. Thank you. Okay. Okay. Let's get started. Okay. Okay. We're good. Okay. Here we go. I don't even know how to talk about this. I know. Ugh. I've got this friend that I'm trying to get back to. When things like this happen, she likes to say, what's the real thing that's happening? The real thing is, I need to get out of here. Let's ignore the weirdness and just focus on that. Really? Yes. So, you want me to focus on the incredibly normal situation of trying to find the exact place in an infinite multiverse to return you to. Yes. Just focus on that. It's impossible. I know. I could do it. What? You could? Yeah. How? You know, I just... Go there. You just go there. Yeah. What? The problem is she can't take anyone with her. Right. I can only travel by myself. But you can just go to exactly where Casper needs you to go. Sure. Okay. Maybe if I can analyze, where and your matrices you're able to navigate in space time, I don't know. X, what is this? What? It's a scroll thing. Oh. I needed to prove to mom that I could do what I do. And so I went and got a scroll from the library of Alexandria. Right. As one does, but X, what is this? It's a... Hang on. You brought a thing with you. I brought a thing with me. You just said you're not able to do that. I'm not able to do that. How did you do that? How did I do that? Wait a minute. Wait. Are you reading my mind right now? Yes. Right. Yes. We were on the Capitol steps. I had just fought Clementine. I gave you a letter. And I delivered it to Terran. In medieval Jerusalem. Have I been able to take things with me the whole time? I don't know. Should we try it? I don't know. Hang on. Stop. What are we talking about? I was able to travel with the scroll right now. Why don't I just... ...casper under my arm and get out of here. Think you back right. Hang on. This was easy. Hang on. I don't think you should do that. Why not? Casper isn't... ...Papyrus. That's... That's true. I can confirm I am not Papyrus. But... What does Papyrus have to do with anything? It's an inanimate object. We can't ask it how it's feeling right now. It seems to be fine. You're talking about subjecting a human mind to traveling through space, time, and dimension like you do. Yeah. You don't have a human mind. You don't know how hard it would be on him. It could scramble him entirely. I mean, he's traveled like that about a billion times. Just like you do? It's the exact same process. I don't know. Just because it's easy for you doesn't mean it's going to be easy for him. Well, damn. Casper, why do you have to be so fragile? I'm like a Fabregé. This is something, though. There's something for us to work with. Hang on. Stand back, she's thinking. We'd need a vessel of some kind. If we could put him inside of some sort of protective bubble, that might do it. So imagine it like this. We build a transdimensional motorboat with X here as the outboard motor. That way, within the boat, the laws of reality stay the same, while everything changes around him. A motorboat. Got it. Cool. Let's do that. Let's build a motorboat. One problem. Actually, several problems. What? I don't know what I'm doing. Theoretical physics isn't my field. I thought your magical crystalline stuff could become whatever you wanted it to be. Only if I know what the thing is. I don't know how to make something like this. And I'm not familiar enough with the concepts that surround it. I'm sure there are people who are. But there's no way in hell I'd be able to explain this situation to them. Right. Okay. Let me ask you this. Does your company have a plane? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. So this is utopia, huh? What is? What is? What? Right now. What? Right now. Right now. Utopia. Utopia. Where? Right here. Right here. Here? Yeah. In my office? Oh, not, no, not here. Like the world. The fuck are you talking about? Have you been keeping up on current events at all? I was supposed to be doing that. No. Single structure crystaline adaptive is what it's called. Oh, I read that paper. You did? Yeah. That was like 10 years ago. Well, it works. Oh, yeah? Yeah. Here it comes. And how is that utopia? Well, apparently, it's going to eliminate energy scarcity, housing shortages, and that's scrolling down here. Oh, everything else. Everything else? Uh-huh. Huh. What's everybody going to do? Well, I guess I'll just do the thing they want to do. I'm already doing the thing I want to do. Right. Me too. I guess we just keep doing that. And then also we won't need money. But I can already afford everything. Wow. Academia really is disconnected from the real world, isn't it? I guess so. Wait, so people are just going to do whatever they want now. Yeah. Is that why there's been a spike in enrollment for the science college? Yeah, there's been a mass exodus from the business school apparently. Supply and demand is not really a thing anymore. And that's their whole gig. So. Huh. Wow. So what you're telling me is it's utopia now. Here it is. And we have more students. Yes. So in utopia, our jobs have gotten harder. Correct. So utopia sucks then looks like it. Yeah. Yeah. Huh. Not so disconnected from the real world now. Army. Nope. Should we go celebrate? Like, have a few drinks before we have to go get fitted for our matching utopia jumpsuits. Well, now you didn't tell me there'd be jumpsuits. I think there will be. I'm warming up to it now. Belted? Yeah. You tie the sleeves around your waist on hot days. Not that there will be any more hot days. Because utopia. Right. OK. I'm in me too. Hey. Can I help you? Who's this guy? Hey, Margaritian. Yes, she is. Who are you? I'm Casper. Casper? Are you lost? So lost. Did you try asking my assistant for directions? Oh, there's nobody out there. You don't. Yeah. What are you looking for, Casper? Nothing, actually. I need your help. Help with what? Um, I need you to help me make a motorboat. What? Good evening. Hello, David. How are you? I'm still here. How are you? I am also still here. What have you got there? I have brought you dinner. Dinner? David, all my nutrition is intravenous now. Yes, but Caszy is feeling better. And she's having ideas. Oh, good. She's worried that if you go too long without solid food, your body will forget how to digest it. So what am I supposed to do now? She has created these nutrient-dense cubes. Cubes? Yes. You're supposed to eat one per day. They don't look very appetizing. No, they don't. What do you suppose they taste like? Oh, I bet they taste real bad. Great. Set them over there. Bon appetit. David. How are you doing? I'm all right. karaoke night in the mess hall has been a big hit. We've got to get you down there. OK. I'm thinking Mary J. Blige for you? David. No more drama. David. I'm all right. He's coming back, David. I appreciate that. I really do. But there comes a point when you've got to look at everything for what it is. You've got to accept. You've got to grow up. You know, my whole world is sound. I don't look up at the stars. I listen to them. When I see you, I'm only seeing the sound that echoes around you. I notice things that other people don't. Things like what? When I rejoined the diner after all those years, something was different. The sound it makes. You'd barely notice it, but I could hear it. No, I could swear I was hearing something. Play broad analysis, X1. Hear it? I don't know. Strip primary layer. What is that? I sleep, thread 1 and D interlace. That's a kitchen. Gloria. Isolate, thread 2 and D interlace. The mucklewains.

What does this mean? Return to full spread. They're a part of it now. It won't let them down. It won't let them down. It won't let them down. It won't let them down. It won't let them down. It won't let them down. It won't let them down. It won't let them down. It won't let them down. It won't let them down. It won't let them down. It won't let them down. It won't let them down.
