The first 200 lines.
Hm.
Oh.
Ah!
Come explore science as we go above...
Three, two, one, zero.
And beyond!
Close your eyes.
Go ahead.
Most people think it's just a black abyss.
But in fact, the universe appears.
Look closely. Do you see it?
It's faint,
but it's there if you concentrate.
It's probably colorful and shifting.
It's evolving and growing.
Do you see it?
What you're seeing is entirely unique to you.
It's a kind of fingerprint,
your own personal universe.
Now...
Open your eyes.
- I said, can you open your eyes for me, Cameron?
Hello?
Oh, my God.
It was unbelievable.
Was he dead?
- The ambulance guy said he had a chance.
Paramedics.
- Yeah, I know what they're called.
Well, was anyone else hurt?
- What did you do till they showed?
- No, but-but-well, I just kind of sat there,
uh, with him.
I don't know. I just-it was weird.
What?
- It's-it's a really crazy story, Cam.
It's really crazy.
You don't believe me, do you?
- I do. I do. It's just the part
about falling from the sky, you know?
You sure it didn't hit the curb and then flip over?
- Well, who was he? - Yeah. Yeah, I am.
They didn't tell me, but he-
he looked like a younger, better-looking version of me.
- Hm. I bet my twin is a hot blonde
with big fake boobs.
- Oh, come on. You're beautiful as is.
Cam, you do know
that it sounds outlandish, though, right?
- You're a man, right? - Yeah. I understand, but it-
- So why is it that, like, the standard of beauty for men
is, like, high heels and a dress?
What is that about?
I mean, it doesn't make sense to me.
Like, why- - I'm just saying-
- What's wrong with, like, a good pair of pants?
- I feel like there's no reason
you can't give a rational explanation for this.
- Because, like, at school they make you either wear,
like, a skirt or pants for your uniform-
This is pressure.
Air pressure.
Air pressure makes the wind blow
and allows us to breathe.
Without air pressure, nothing could fly.
Now, look at this.
This airplane is flying.
Well, it was in rehearsal.
Air moving across the wings is what scientists call lift.
Now, any fluid, be it air or water,
flowing around an object puts a force on that object.
Lift is the component of this force
that is perpendicular to the oncoming flow.
And it is this perpendicular force
that causes airplanes...
Your show's on way too late.
Why do they put a kids' show on at midnight?
Midnight's a decent time slot.
Besides, Tony's got some Saturday morning slot
opening up soon.
We'll be on with the other kids' shows
before you know it.
- Didn't he say that last year?
- You know, my dad used to always say,
"There are two kinds of people in the world, Cameron,
"astronomers and astronauts.
Some look at the stars, others swim in them."
Okay.
Just be happy you're young.
You could still be an astronaut.
- Yeah, but I don't wanna be an astronaut.
You do.
No, what I mean is,
you still have time to do something fantastic.
- What do you want me to say here, Cameron?
You're calling me Cameron now?
- Yeah. It's your name, isn't it?
Isn't it your bedtime?
I think it's your bedtime.
Shh. Shh. Shh.
What'd I miss? Come on.
- You missed the fact of the day.
- No! - Yes.
And that- - That's my favorite part.
- Now you won't- - What was it?
You missed it.
The fact's gone.
Ugh. Come on.
You don't get the fact.
I talked to Larry.
He said the divorce papers should be...
ready in a few weeks.
- Are we sure we want to do this?
- We have to figure out how we're gonna tell everyone.
Forgot to brush my teeth.
- Hey, come on! It's 7:15.
- Whoa. - What?
It's that guy.
That-that guy from the car crash
that I saved or whatever,
He won a Copley. He's an astronaut.
- What's a Coupler? - Copley.
- It's British. - It's a medal,
for science, like the Nobel prize.
- Well, except the Nobel is Swedish.
Remember Bill Lang?
He won a Copley only four years after graduating?
- God, who could forget Willie Lang?
- Exactly. Ugh. - Hang on.
Didn't you win a medal once?
That was a Crawford.
His father won the Copley.
- Okay, now I'm lost. Actually, I don't care, so...
All right. I'm off.
God, this guy looks like me.
He totally does.
- I-I mean, like a little, not that much, right?
- No, he does. Okay. See you, Cam.
Does-does he look like me?
Not a lot though, right?
- Statistically speaking, in a room with over 23 people,
there is more than a 50% chance
that two people will have the same birthday.
We've got 22 in here now,
but I think we've got a pretty good shot.
So let's hear some birthdays, starting in the back.
Mr. Cohen.
September 8th.
August 9th.
November 7th.
March 28th.
December 10th.
November 7th.
April 4th.
February 14th.
Valentine's Day.
October 31st, Halloween.
Ooh, October 31st.
Spooky.
Yes? - Hi. Yeah.
I just got registered, and they said to come here.
- Oh. Welcome, welcome.
And what is your birthday, good sir?
October 31st.
- We have a match, ladies and gentlemen.
Mm! Isn't math cool?
A Halloween destiny has been foretold.
Why don't you come on in, have a seat
right in front of your match.
Now, probability statistics...
- There is a certain force of attraction in our universe
pulling us together.
You,
me,
and the TV you're watching are all pulling on each other.
This...
Is gravity.
The more mass an object has on Earth,
the greater pull it has from Earth.
We call this pull weight.
With all that weight pulling down,
it's a wonder anything or anyone has ever made it
off planet Earth and into outer space.
You gotta go 600,000 feet up to get there.
That's 20 times higher than Mount Everest.
So how do you get there?
Rockets.
- That'll work. It's a go for broadcast, Cam.
- You didn't watch the whole thing.
Ooh, I trust you didn't slip
any subliminal messages in there.
Your shows are all the same anyway, right?
- Um... - Everything okay?
Yeah.
- Man, sorry about the Saturday slot.
- The-the what? - The Saturday morning slot.
I thought you guys really deserved it.
- I've got the footage- - Mm-hmm.
- And we're seeing a few problems with it...
- Uh, thanks. - Yeah.
