Transcript
In a robotics lab, a young man with short braids and a dark polo cleans near a glass display containing a mechanical figure. He says, “...And they got me downstairs cleaning dinosaur footprints.” He examines a workstation marked “DR. ELIAS VOSS / ADVANCED ROBOTICS” and says, “This must’ve been his station...” He looks down at a framed photograph and says, “Whoa...” In the photo, two men pose together; one wears a light lab coat and glasses, and the other wears a dark suit and glasses. The young man asks, “...You two were friends?” The bespectacled man standing nearby replies, “Once.” He says, “Yeah, Banks... that was a lifetime ago.” Then, “He wasn’t always like this.” Then, “Hell of a mind.” He adds, “What a shame, really.” The photograph is labeled “WESTHAVEN ADVANCED SYSTEMS / 2004.”
