Something wrong with the clip?
Quote
Wayne Szalinski:
And given that my machine can substantially reduce the size of bulky payloads... And fuel supplies of the savings to the space program would be staggering.
Professor Frederickson:
Mr. Szalinski, are you trying to tell me that suddenly size is no longer relative?
Wayne Szalinski:
Well, that's right, Professor Frederickson, and that all matter is made up of not only density but of empty space, and if we can proportionally reduce the amount of empty space in any given object, we can, thereby, shrink the object.
Professor Frederickson:
Uh-huh. Where's your proof?
Wayne Szalinski:
When Einstein came up with the atomic bomb, did they ask him to prove that it worked?
Professor Frederickson:
You, Mr. Szalinski, are hardly Einstein.
[the audience laughs]
Wayne Szalinski:
I picked a name.
Professor Frederickson:
You have, however, managed to shrink one thing: the size of the audience.
[stands up]
Professor Frederickson:
Gentlemen, ladies, I don't know about you, but I'm going to lunch.
[leaves along with the rest]

And given that my machine
can substantially reduce the size
00:00:05.878 --> 00:00:07.088
of bulky payloads...
00:00:09.257 --> 00:00:10.758
and fuel supplies,
00:00:11.001 --> 00:00:13.511
the savings to the space program
would be staggering.
00:00:13.803 --> 00:00:15.054
PROFESSOR FREDERICKSON:
Mr. Szalinski,
00:00:15.304 --> 00:00:18.266
are you trying to tell me that
suddenly size is no longer relative?
00:00:18.558 --> 00:00:20.309
WAYNE: Well, that's right,
Professor Fredrickson,
00:00:20.393 --> 00:00:23.271
that all matter is made up of not
only density, but of empty space.
00:00:23.354 --> 00:00:24.981
And if we can proportionately reduce
00:00:25.064 --> 00:00:26.774
the amount of empty space
in any given object,
00:00:26.857 --> 00:00:28.734
we can thereby... shrink the object.
00:00:28.818 --> 00:00:30.403
Uh-huh. Where's your proof?
00:00:31.779 --> 00:00:33.906
When Einstein came up
with the atomic bomb,
00:00:34.999 --> 00:00:35.575
did they ask him to prove
that it worked?
00:00:36.003 --> 00:00:38.786
You, Mr. Szalinski,
are hardly Einstein.
00:00:38.995 --> 00:00:40.329
(LAUGHTER)
00:00:41.122 --> 00:00:42.248
I picked a name.
00:00:42.373 --> 00:00:44.542
You have, however, managed
to shrink one thing.
00:00:44.875 --> 00:00:46.586
The size of this audience.
00:00:46.877 --> 00:00:48.921
Gentlemen, ladies,
I don't know about you,
00:00:49.026 --> 00:00:50.464
but I'm going to lunch.
00:00:58.389 --> 00:01:00.224
Wayne? Wayne!
00:01:01.183 --> 00:01:04.027
- Oh, hi, Dr. Brainard.
- Don't take it too hard, Wayne.
00:01:04.562 --> 00:01:07.999
It will take time
to convince people without proof.
00:01:08.001 --> 00:01:09.001
WAYNE: I appreciate it.
Thanks a lot.
00:01:11.694 --> 00:01:14.614
By the way, you were right
about the electric flea collar.
00:01:14.697 --> 00:01:16.532
The extension cord was a bad idea.
00:01:17.491 --> 00:01:19.016
What could be taking them so long?
00:01:20.786 --> 00:01:22.747
I am not missing the mall today.
00:01:23.914 --> 00:01:25.994
Nick!
00:01:28.461 --> 00:01:29.712
- Nick.
- Ron?
00:01:29.795 --> 00:01:31.964
If you guys are hiding up here,
it's not funny.
00:01:33.007 --> 00:01:34.717
Nick, you know what Dad said.
00:01:35.176 --> 00:01:37.994
You're not supposed
to be playing up here.
00:01:38.971 --> 00:01:40.514
(WHIRRING, ZAPPING)
00:01:52.693 --> 00:01:53.944
Where are we?
00:02:06.916 --> 00:02:08.125
Oh, my God. What happened?
00:02:08.334 --> 00:02:09.001
- NICK: Amy!
- RON: Russ!
00:02:10.001 --> 00:02:11.999
NICK: Amy!
00:02:13.547 --> 00:02:14.548
Nicky.
00:02:14.001 --> 00:02:15.001
Ron?
