Olivia: We've double-checked our observational equipment and the computer's warm-up is almost finished. We have precautionary personnel in place ready to start a shutdown in the event of a failure. Olivia: It's time. Jackie: Right. Jackie: Spin the machine up slowly so we can monitor for any abnormal power fluctuations. We start on "3". Jackie: "1"... "2"... Jackie: "3". [There's a metallic clunk. The baritone whirr of machinery can be heard.] Jackie: Something's not right. Olivia: It's the container... the atom is vibrating too fast. [The whir of the machinery peels up an octave into a mechanical screech.] Olivia: W-we have to abort! Jackie: No, not yet. Drop power from the coolant system and use it to bolster the container. It'll stabilize. Olivia: But without coolant-- Jackie: It will stabilize! [There's a sharp crackle of electricity.] Olivia: Drop 40% power from the coolant systems, reroute everything we have to the atomic container! [The whirring reaches a crescendo, then calms into a steady hum.] Olivia: That did it. The container is stabilizing. [Jackie sighs in relief.] Olivia: But... Look at these numbers. Jackie: My god. Are these real? Olivia: Yes, I'm certain of it. Jackie, I think we did it. Olivia: I think we created an infinite energy source. ------------------
