So! I had this idea--<br> '''Kamal:''' --Goodbye Aiden!<br> '''Aiden:''' Hey, hear me out. Didn't I make you rich?<br> '''Kamal:''' Oh yes. I have more funny-colored poker chips than any other colonial in town! Stop by the casino and I'll buy you 400,000 drinks with little umbrellas.<br> '''Aiden:''' Oh there's that mad-cap sense of humor.<br> ===Lucky me=== {{Listen|title=Lucky me |filename=ILB_Lucky_me.ogg }} '''Aiden:''' Look, I've got this killer opportunity here. You're a doctor right?<br> '''Kamal:''' I finished med school.<br> '''Aiden:''' How's that different from being a doctor?<br> '''Kamal:''' No residency, no board exam, no license.<br> '''Aiden:''' Pfft! Paperwork. You're practically a doctor. So listen...<br> '''Kamal:''' What did I ever do to you?<br> '''Aiden:''' What?<br> '''Kamal:''' Why am I the lab-rat for all your crazy ideas?<br> '''Aiden:''' Hey, give yourself some credit. I don't think of you as a lab-rat. We're collaborators, Kamal. Partners. I feel bad for you sometimes. You don't believe in yourself.<br> '''Kamal:''' What's your idea?<br> '''Aiden:''' Oh man, it's a good one.<br> '''Kamal:''' Lucky me.<br> ===Like Vampires=== {{Listen|title=Like Vampires |filename=ILB_Like_vampires.ogg }} '''Aiden:''' So you gonna let me in?<br> '''Kamal:''' Fine... it's like vampires.<br> '''Aiden:''' So I'm watching this celebrity of the week thing last night, and a thought occurs to me. What does every celebrity need?<br> '''Kamal:''' Help from you?<br> '''Aiden:''' MORE of themselves.<br> '''Kamal:''' I already said goodbye to you right?<br> '''Aiden:''' Let's say you're a celebrity. How much appearance money could you soak up if there was more than one of you? Burn bright! Be everywhere! Ride the wave until it falls on you! See where I'm going with this?<br> '''Kamal:''' Not even a little.<br> '''Aiden:''' Don't play dumb.<br> '''Kamal:''' Umm... they could use holoforms.<br> '''Aiden:''' They already do that, man. I'm talking about actual appearances!<br> '''Kamal:''' So... what?

I'm going to humor you. Let's say we wanted to flash clone a vid-star. Which I don't, but let's just say.<br> '''Aiden:''' That's it. Let that finely tuned brain of yours begin to hum.<br> '''Kamal:''' First we'd have to have access to the star's DNA.<br> '''Aiden:''' Look around! DNA collection central! And we throw in a face-lift for free.<br> '''Kamal:''' Aiden, what are we going to do with our clones when the original isn't famous any more?

You can really taste the [[list of food and drinks|soy]]!<br> '''Kamal:''' Okay, it doesn't work.<br> '''Aiden:''' What do you mean, it doesn't work? Of course it works!<br> '''Kamal:''' Flash clones aren't just like rubber stamps of the original.<br> '''Aiden:''' But close right?<br> '''Kamal:''' No you take an embryo and develop it 100x faster than it would have naturally and what you get is something different--<br> '''Aiden:''' --So we do plastic surgery to make them look right. Hell, you could do that couldn't you?<br> '''Kamal:''' That isn't what I study.<br> '''Aiden:''' Big deal, study it now.<br> '''Kamal:''' Aiden, all these anomalies pop up because flash clones are forced to go through time too fast--<br> '''Aiden:''' --Kamal, no science gaff. Give me the executive summary.<br> ===Wave and smile=== {{Listen|title=Wave and smile |filename=ILB_Wave_and_smile.ogg }} '''Kamal:''' Okay, flash clones don't know how to talk.<br> '''Aiden:''' They don't have to talk. Stars wave and smile, Kamal. They walk down red carpets and show off their clothes. Nobody wants to hear them talk.<br> '''Kamal:''' Well they don't know how to wave and smile either.<br> '''Aiden:''' Come again?<br> '''Kamal:''' Clones don't have any muscle memory. No training like you and I just got observing people while we were crawli--<br> '''Aiden:''' --Okay, okay, whatever. Doesn't matter, we'll prop them up behind tables, put sunglasses on them, and make them look arrogant and bored. People love that.<br> ===Yasmine=== {{Listen|title=Yasmine |filename=ILB_Yasmine.ogg }} '''Kamal:''' Also, they'll drool, like babies.<br> '''Aiden:''' We'll make sure they've got managers with them. (impersonating an agent) Miss Pop-Star doesn't believe that this role fully realizes her artistic integrity.<br> '''Kamal:''' Aiden, Christ, would you listen to me! You can train them - intensive therapy - but after a year or two they start to degenerate; metabolic instability.<br> '''Aiden:''' That takes care of the problem of what to do with them afterwards, right?<br> '''Kamal:''' Oh come on, about the time you might get them to be coherent, to talk and walk, all these little errors in their systems add up and you get a metabolic cascade failure---<br> (Kamal drops glass)<br> '''Aiden:''' Hey, you okay?<br> '''Kamal:''' Oh my God... [[Yasmine Zaman|Yasmine]]... (runs out)<br> '''Aiden:''' Hey, hey!

What if Aiden...<br> '''Sophia:''' I'll deal with Aiden. What's wrong?<br> '''Kamal:''' Did Aiden tell you about his plan?<br> '''Sophia:''' Aiden and I don't talk about his business. He'd rather buy me shoes.<br> ===Flash clones=== {{Listen|title=Flash clones |filename=ILB_Flash_clones.ogg }} '''Kamal:''' Um, listen. If you need me to go home, I can go home--<br> '''Sophia:''' --Can I get you something? You're white as a ghost. Let me get you some water.<br> '''Kamal:''' Lately Aiden's been coming to me with his weekly scheme.<br> '''Sophia:''' Ya?<br> '''Kamal:''' Well he shows up 2 or 3 days ago, saying he's got this great new idea. He wants to clone pop stars. I mean flash-clone them.<br> '''Sophia:''' Here, drink.<br> '''Kamal:''' Thanks.<br> '''Sophia:''' Flash-clones... that's kind of... different for him.<br> '''Kamal:''' You mean most of his ideas aren't felonious?<br> '''Sophia:''' Well they're not that blatant anyway.<br> '''Kamal:''' I said I'd look into it, just so I could explain to him why it couldn't be done and uh...<br> '''Sophia:''' Drink.<br> (Kamal drinks)<br> '''Kamal:''' I did. I did explain it to him. I was telling him, listen, these people - these clones - they can't walk, they can't talk, they always degenerate. Their systems break down. Their metabolisms, and--<br> '''Sophia:''' --oh, oh my God. <br> ===I never came=== {{Listen|title=I never came |filename=ILB_I_never_came.ogg }} '''Sophia:''' Your sister.<br> '''Kamal:''' No!
