PECOS (CONT'D)
project leaders, a native of this
great state--
Behind her, we see New Jersey lean over to Reno.
NEW JERSEY
She's not going to use my alias.
She never uses my alias.
PECOS
--my esteemed colleague, Dr. Sidney
Zwiebel.
New Jersey steps up to the podium, shaking her hand.
NEW JERSEY
Dammit, Pecos! I told you, in front
of the press, it's "New Jersey."
This echoes across the airfield over the PA. Embarrassed, he
covers the microphone with his hand, collects himself, then
proceeds.
Pecos smirks and takes the empty seat next to Reno. Reno and
Pecos exchange a look that tells us they're madly in love.
PENNY looks at her watch and then scans the horizon.
NEW JERSEY
Ladies and Gentleman, as you know
from our press release, today's
experiment represents the next
logical step in utilizing the
matter penetration technology we
were able to harness in the Banzai
Institute's recent Jet Car
experiments. Of course, the unusual
series of events following that
experiment delayed our follow up
research a bit while we ascertained
the safety of future tests.
PECOS
(whispering to Reno)
This will kill some time, but if
he's late again, it's your turn to
make excuses for him.
RENO
Lemme borrow your go-phone. Left
mine in my other suit.
Pecos hands him a GO-PHONE - a mobile VIDEO PHONE, with a
built-in microphone, camera, and two-inch color screen.
Reno presses a series of buttons, and in seconds the face of
PERFECT TOMMY appears on the screen.
