Hi
Hi
It's cold in here.
It's ok, step out.
Let me see your hands.
Let me see your feet.
Wow, even the scar...
...from when I fell off my hydropede?
You remember! The printer worked perfectly!
Yeah...so, you know the plan?
Of course!
Dad!
Le cena e servita. Penne con
salsiccia!
Your mum and I had this
in Sicily. Right after I ...
...  saved her from a giant jellyfish.
I know, dad, you’ve told me a million times.
Right.
When is she
coming home?
Any minute now.
Umm, I want her to see something.
How did your science project go?
Did the mouse survive?
Dad, I killed that idea ages ago.
Rupert stole my idea again so I had to do some more research.
That's my boy! Bill, hey...
Yes?
No!
Well I can but it would change the whole
rhythm of the piece.
We can't cut another character, Bill. If we don't show Stevie Spider as a young...
Hey sweetheart!
Mum, mum, listen. You won't believe...
What?
We need another toothbrush!
One minute, sweetie.
Well, look, I'll do my best but I don't know how long it will take.
We'll need to get a bunk bed but we can share clothes and birthday presents.
Does no one listen to anything I say?
We cannot grant bioprinting licenses for non-governmental bodies.
For this I had to use your agency pass to unlock the 3D printer at school.
Research and defence, don't misquote me on that!
I had to do it quickly during assembly. You're not mad, are you?
No! No, absolutely not! That would be illegal under current legislation.
But that would be a huge rewrite.
Mum! Mum! Mum!
Mum! Mum! I can show you now. Mum!
Sweetheart that's fantastic. Take some photographs, we'll show grandma at the weekend.
You have yoga on Saturday and then we'll probably have guests around.
No, that's not going to work. Well, if we're going to privatise the patent...
...that would be the whole first section...
Can we just talk about that tomorrow?
(muffled talking)
Bill?
Caleb?
I just wanted to show you something important for once! But you’re always too busy. It’s always the same.
You probably wish you never even had me.
Caleb!
I think his mouse must have died in the experiment.
Do you think we made a mistake?
Not having a second one, I mean.
Sometimes I think all we can offer him is this adult madness.
He'll come around, don't worry.
I promised him a special day out on Saturday, just the three of us.
So did I.
He did seem calmer when I put him to bed.
Our sleeping professor.
That reminds me, can you throw away his dinosaur pajamas? They’re way too small.
Dinosaur?
He was wearing his spaceman ones.
Here you are.
Oh...right...yeah.
What are you guys working on over there?
Our latest experiment.
It's the best thing we've ever done!
The unveiling will be at 6 PM tonight.
Please arrive on time.
I can't believe this is happening!
Stop worrying mum.
We've thought this through.
You have no idea.
You're going to love it.
6 PM. Tonight.
Bye, mum.
I still can’t believe it. This is amazing!
Amazing? Have you any idea of the trouble we're in?
Come on, sweetheart.
I have to fix this.
Can't you stay? Call in sick?
No, John. I can't. I've got to sort this out.
Sort what out? It's already done, isn't it?
Unless you mean deciding which one is the original?
When they stepped out of the 3D printer, they had the same memories, the same experiences, everything.
So technically, they are both the original.
And here was I trying to figure out which colour to give them on the schedule...
We have to work out which one to keep.
Right, boys... I've got a few things planned for us today.
Hello?
Hey mum it's me, Caleb.
Caleb?
It's me, Caleb.
No. It's me, Caleb.
John are you there?
It's me, Caleb.
I think she hung up.
Are you out of your mind?
What were you thinking calling the office? What if someone were listening in?
Oh come on, it was just a bit of fun.
Fun?
Yes, fun. Remember?
Oh, John.
You know I can see you in both of them?
No one can find out about this. Ever.
So I've contacted an agency.
An agency?
Yeah, they'll be here tomorrow.
What kind of agency?
It doesn't matter.
I know them from work. They...
They deal with problems.
Are you serious?
Of course I'm serious.
But why?
Sonia, we can work it.
We’ll come up with a cover story. Long lost twin. Separated at birth.
Change our identities...
He’ll understand when he’s older.
Will he?
How do you know?
What about me?
Will I understand?
Will you?
You need to sign these.
What if I don't?
Will your big bad government come and take me away?
Mum! Dad!
The car will be here at 7.
Anti Bullying Machine?
Mum, shhhh
Sorry.
You push this button...and then this one.
It's really brilliant.
Once the bullying impulse is neutralised in their brains ... they get a chocolate taste in their mouths.
...for being kind. That's dad's idea.
Is there a problem at school, Caleb?
Not anymore. We're protected forever.
But you know you can talk to us, don't you?
Yeah, but this is way cooler... way cooler.
Yeah, it is pretty cool.
Hey, do you know what great scientists do to celebrate a big moment?
They have a pizza night.
Pizza!
Pizza for four?
No mushrooms.
Yeah and extra olives.
Extra olives.
And a double-bill.
Yeah but not too late...
...up early in the morning.
Do you think they'll be proud?
Of course! How do we share our room?
What's mine is yours.
And what's yours is mine.
The synapses adjuster should go above the oxygen filter to stop overheating. Diagram J.
Otherwise the bully's good impulses might get damaged.
And mum always said wanting to be good is what makes us human.
Dear friend,
How's life in the city? Being off the grid is incredible.
Thanks for sending those text books over for Caleb.
Sonia, congratulations on your NGO paper.
Who knows, this might be the first step
towards bio-printing equality.
John, I'm honored to be the one collecting the Children's Book of the Year award for us.
Anyhow gotta go. Got a fish on the fire
and my nose is telling its burning.
Can't believe it's only one more month until we're back in London.
You're gonna love it here.
Until next time.
Lots of love.
