Infinity Train

Glad-One: Do be careful.

I think you accidentally slipped and broke a porter.

Sad-One: Many, many times in a row.

Hey, I know you.

You're the rare foil version of my friend Tulip.

Aghhh! I'm not Tulip.

I'm not foil. I'm not reflection.

I'm not a sliver. I'm not a null.

I'm not any of the hundreds of names

that everyone wants to give me.

I'm my own person who is getting off this train,

and whatever gears or reality-bending buttons

you've got to press, you're gonna do it.

But why would I?

You're exactly where you're supposed to be.

-No. -No?

No. Give me my exit.

You can't have an exit. You don't have a number.

Ugh! Give me a number then!

Numbers are for passengers.

How can I expect someone to grow emotionally

without some nice, juicy math?

Fine. Give me some trials, whatever.

Take my memories.

Tape me. I don't care!

Let's do it!

No, you'll stay and keep helping.

You're so good at it.

I can show you.

Sad-One: Ah, let's see.

What was your passenger's name?

Jesse. His name is Jesse.

Oh, yes, thank you.

See? So helpful.

Here we go. He got down to zero,

all sorted out and off the -- hmm?

He can't be at zero but also in process.

So if he's being processed...

Then he's back on the train.

Field trip to the passenger farm!

Alan Dracula!

Oh! Hey, buddy.

Jesse!

Glad-One: Field trip to the memory-watching machine!

Glad-One: Well, I don't get it. We fixed him already.

Sad-One: Yet that greedy little piglet is thirsty for more.

Glad-One: Oh, new release!

Gimme, gimme, gimme!

Let's take a peek.

Ahhh!

Glad-One: Ooh, a tape has never started on the train before.

Tape Glad-One: Remember, you can't spell "escape"

without companionship.

Uh, companion-shape? Companion-scape.

Com-scape-ionship.

Constipation.

Hey, come back!

That didn't explain anything.

Tape Sad-One: ...of transformation.

Ah!

I didn't realize he was so scared.

Ah!

Glad-One: Oh, look, you've got costar billing now.

Sad-One: But you'll probably be paid less

because Hollywood breeds gender inequality.

You can't even help yourself.

That's why passengers get on this train in the first place!

Hey, don't push...

Ah!

Your friends are bad.

You know that, right?

Maybe.

Glad-One: Oh, train does it again.

Look how much he's grown.

I guess I changed, too.

Memory Jesse: I got you. We're getting out of here.

Sad-One: This is my favorite part.

Please don't show me this.

Ah! Ah!

MT? Where'd you go?

MT!

Jesse! Jesse!

Where have you been?

Nate. Ah!

I wasn't sure I'd see you again.

I shouldn't have let those guys hurt you.

I -- Ishouldn't have hurt you.

I'm so sorry.

Ah, i-it's okay.

W-what about you? Where did you go?

Glad-One: Yeah, yeah, yeah, we don't need to hear it.

We just watched the hi-def version.

And now I'm here, and she's still trapped

on the train with those flecs.

Do you think she's okay?

I don't know. I mean, she's MT.

She can probably take care of herself,

but I promised we'd stay together.

So... what are you gonna do?

I -- I just need to sit here and think for a bit.

Okay? Okay.

Uh, I'll go get some food or something.

Be right back.

I can't leave her there.

Uh.

Now will you wake him up?

Glad-One: Oh, heavens no.

Waking a passenger is a whole process.

It involves robots and coding and juice boxes and --

-Ugh! -Wha!

-Ah! -Ah, ah, ah!

Where am I? MT!

Jesse, I thought you were gone!

MT, I didn't think I would find you so fast!

A.D.!

Sad-One: Excuse me, young man.

This train is for fixing problems,

not for hang time with buds.

Oh, I have a problem.

My friend is trapped on a train.

Glad-One: Whoo-hoo! Number time!

Ah! Ah! Okay, this is terrifying.

Ah! Hey, let go of me!Oh, stop it.
