You said there's another satellite? 860 01:08:42,898 --> 01:08:44,298 Yes. Oh, yes. 861 01:08:44,300 --> 01:08:46,066 Spinning around our little world 862 01:08:46,068 --> 01:08:48,367 until we advanced technologically 863 01:08:48,369 --> 01:08:50,703 to the point where we could retrieve it 864 01:08:50,705 --> 01:08:53,673 and discover its secrets. 865 01:08:53,675 --> 01:08:55,778 They were waiting for us. 866 01:08:56,812 --> 01:08:58,881 In a sense.

Ah... 871 01:09:10,059 --> 01:09:12,391 Not exactly. No, this was 872 01:09:12,393 --> 01:09:13,961 a very similar state of affairs 873 01:09:13,963 --> 01:09:16,529 to what is happening now, but not quite the same. 874 01:09:16,531 --> 01:09:18,598 We retrieved the satellite. 875 01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:22,702 We... We found, inside, an encrypted message... 876 01:09:22,704 --> 01:09:24,704 along with blueprints. 877 01:09:24,706 --> 01:09:28,075 - Mm? - But the purpose was different. 878 01:09:28,077 --> 01:09:32,445 The purpose, I believe, was to tether themselves to... 879 01:09:33,915 --> 01:09:36,716 To our dimension. 880 01:09:36,718 --> 01:09:40,453 An anchor of sorts. 881 01:09:40,455 --> 01:09:42,521 Our dimension. 882 01:09:42,523 --> 01:09:44,423 - You mean...? - Yes, yes, yes. 883 01:09:44,425 --> 01:09:48,861 Yes. I mean, yes, inter-dimensional beings. 884 01:09:48,863 --> 01:09:52,698 Yes, that's what I believe them to be. 885 01:09:52,700 --> 01:09:54,634 It's wonderful, isn't it? 886 01:09:54,636 --> 01:09:56,669 Although I'm not sure that A.R.I.S.T. 887 01:09:56,671 --> 01:09:58,471 shares my enthusiasm. 888 01:09:58,473 --> 01:10:00,539 When I tried to communicate this to them, 889 01:10:00,541 --> 01:10:03,609 they had me discredited, locked up and... 890 01:10:03,611 --> 01:10:07,480 ...excommunicated from the scientific community. 891 01:10:07,482 --> 01:10:09,882 They said I was paranoid, schizophrenic. 892 01:10:09,884 --> 01:10:13,085 Not unlike what you two have been going through, I'm sure. 893 01:10:13,087 --> 01:10:16,422 I, too, developed a tumor. 894 01:10:16,424 --> 01:10:18,658 A small one, non-fatal, 895 01:10:18,660 --> 01:10:22,561 which I believe enabled me to... To see them. 896 01:10:22,563 --> 01:10:25,097 But they don't exist on the same plane 897 01:10:25,099 --> 01:10:27,833 of linear time as we do. 898 01:10:27,835 --> 01:10:30,803 It was challenging to try to figure out any way in which 899 01:10:30,805 --> 01:10:33,438 I could make some kind of sense of it, 900 01:10:33,440 --> 01:10:36,008 which I-I'm sure you two can relate to. 901 01:10:36,010 --> 01:10:40,445 Not to mention, psychiatric institutions in the '70s were... 902 01:10:40,447 --> 01:10:42,547 Were a bit different than they are today. 903 01:10:42,549 --> 01:10:44,817 Please, sit. Sit, sit, please. 904 01:10:44,819 --> 01:10:48,788 So if they... If they exist on another plane... 905 01:10:48,790 --> 01:10:51,489 then that means their perception of our reality 906 01:10:51,491 --> 01:10:53,059 would be different. 907 01:10:53,061 --> 01:10:56,195 Well, I am quite certain that they are incapable 908 01:10:56,197 --> 01:10:58,530 of perceiving things the way we do. 909 01:10:58,532 --> 01:11:03,202 We are so, so primitive. They are so advanced. 910 01:11:03,204 --> 01:11:06,205 So that means whatever dimension they're from... 911 01:11:06,207 --> 01:11:08,841 Wouldn't experience time in linear form. 912 01:11:08,843 --> 01:11:11,978 - Right. - Yes, well, I believe that, 913 01:11:11,980 --> 01:11:15,915 to them, quite possibly, time is one moment. 914 01:11:17,452 --> 01:11:19,617 So... Ha. 915 01:11:19,619 --> 01:11:22,221 So if the, uh... If the first machine... 916 01:11:22,223 --> 01:11:24,923 ...was a tether 917 01:11:24,925 --> 01:11:26,925 then what does the new machine do? 918 01:11:26,927 --> 01:11:29,128 Ah, well... Ha. 919 01:11:29,130 --> 01:11:33,434 I believe the new machine will allow them, 920 01:11:33,600 --> 01:11:36,735 for lack of a better word, access... 921 01:11:36,737 --> 01:11:38,805 to our dimension. 922 01:11:40,507 --> 01:11:44,042 Think of it as if they are watching a video cassette, 923 01:11:44,044 --> 01:11:47,146 and we are the characters in that story. 924 01:11:47,148 --> 01:11:48,913 And we can move from the beginning 925 01:11:48,915 --> 01:11:50,515 through the middle to the end. 926 01:11:50,517 --> 01:11:53,752 We can only experience things as such. 927 01:11:53,754 --> 01:11:55,920 The first machine was the remote, 928 01:11:55,922 --> 01:11:58,623 with which they could jump around 929 01:11:58,625 --> 01:12:02,660 at any point and watch the story. 930 01:12:02,662 --> 01:12:05,063 But they couldn't affect us. 931 01:12:05,065 --> 01:12:08,900 They couldn't alter, they couldn't interact. 932 01:12:08,902 --> 01:12:11,569 But I believe this new machine... 933 01:12:11,571 --> 01:12:14,039 will enable them to... Ha. 934 01:12:14,041 --> 01:12:16,841 To reach right through the screen. 935 01:12:16,843 --> 01:12:20,111 And the closer we get to the machine's activation, 936 01:12:20,113 --> 01:12:22,647 the stronger we're feeling its effects. 937 01:12:22,649 --> 01:12:24,282 They're becoming more present. 938 01:12:24,284 --> 01:12:26,918 The effects of the machine are rippling 939 01:12:26,920 --> 01:12:29,187 as soon as the machine is activated. 940 01:12:29,189 --> 01:12:31,524 Time is bleeding backwards. 941 01:12:31,526 --> 01:12:33,958 There's an overflow of-of effects 942 01:12:33,960 --> 01:12:37,228 moving out to the future and to the past. 943 01:12:37,230 --> 01:12:39,064 The closer we get to that moment, 944 01:12:39,066 --> 01:12:41,533 the more concentrated the ripples are, 945 01:12:41,535 --> 01:12:44,805 the more powerful they become. 946 01:12:46,740 --> 01:12:49,974 Yeah, uh, Rebecca tried to warn us. 947 01:12:49,976 --> 01:12:53,011 Yes, well, things are getting very strange 948 01:12:53,013 --> 01:12:54,312 at A.R.I.S.T. Yes. 949 01:12:54,314 --> 01:12:57,248 Very strange indeed. Ha, ha. 950 01:12:57,250 --> 01:13:00,051 Anything in close proximity is... 951 01:13:00,053 --> 01:13:03,054 Are being affected dramatically. 952 01:13:03,056 --> 01:13:05,156 People are moving in slow motion, 953 01:13:05,158 --> 01:13:08,960 looping conversations. Can you imagine? 954 01:13:08,962 --> 01:13:11,664 I-it's crazy. It's crackers. 955 01:13:12,999 --> 01:13:14,968 We know nothing. 956 01:13:16,269 --> 01:13:18,203 We know nothing. 957 01:13:18,205 --> 01:13:23,308 We can try to reason the rules of their existence, 958 01:13:23,310 --> 01:13:26,044 but we don't even understand our own. 959 01:13:26,046 --> 01:13:30,348 My theoretical description of their existence is just that. 960 01:13:30,350 --> 01:13:34,352 It's a theory. It's just so we can begin to understand. 961 01:13:34,354 --> 01:13:38,189 But it's probably nowhere near the actual truth. 962 01:13:38,191 --> 01:13:39,790 Case in point. 963 01:13:39,792 --> 01:13:42,093 When you look at them... 964 01:13:42,095 --> 01:13:45,062 you perceive them as what? 965 01:13:45,064 --> 01:13:47,867 As men, correct? 966 01:13:49,202 --> 01:13:51,668 Yeah.
