're probably just showing off.
I mean, you have it, you got to use it, right?
-What? Does it hurt?
-No, I didn't feel anything.
That sound is just weirding me out.
-What does it feel like?
-I don't know.
I don't know if I'm making it up.
Here.
-Next part. Let's do the next part.
-Yeah.
Isn't there some sort of glass
or a transparent....
Anything we can use as a window? Pyrex?
-Yeah, I'm in.
-Okay, drop it.
-I don't know of anything
that won't leave a gap in the field.
But we got to see what's going on in there.
-How much did that cost?
-Yeah.
-What?
-You want to put my camcorder...
inside the box that's so dangerous
we can't look into it.
If something happens,
would you pay me back?
So we have a slightly negative pressure
in the box.
So we're ready for the argon.
-Which one is that?
-It's the blue one.
I weighed it at 77 grams.
I set the scale to decagrams, though.
I'm showing 7.7 decagrams.
Ready for...
0.05 liters of argon.
-You ready?
-Just the plate first, right?
Right, first just the plate, and then we'll....
Let's just give it a second.
-You want to do the box now?
-Yeah.
Let's go through the checklist.
Aaron, hold on a second.
Let's make sure everything's set up right.
Hold on, Aaron. Wait.
Just wait.
Okay.
Anything?
-Is this normal?
-I don't know.
-I'm turning it off.
-Wait! No.
-Okay, I didn't do that.
-Did we blow something?
Yeah, we did. That's destroyed.
-You want to check your camera?
-Yeah.
-Let's get this.
-You ready?
One, two, three.
Hey. Tell me you're hungry.
Kara's at her mom's and I'm starving.
Yeah, I'm hungry. What....
Abe, it's 7:00. Abe, it's 7:00 at night.
-Okay, yeah, I have food--
-Okay.
-Wait, are those kids there?
-Just a sec.
Yeah, they're here.
Okay, screw that, let's just go somewhere.
I just pulled in, so come on down.
Come up first. I have some stuff
I want to take back to the shop.
All right, but meet me at the door.
-Okay, all right.
-Seriously, meet me at the door.
Okay. All right. See you.
-What's up, Abe?
-Hey, Brad. How are you?
Good.
-How long did he say he would be there?
-Not long.
If he's got problems, he's got to fix them.
You're not his dad.
I know. I just thought it would be good
to do something charitable.
It definitely is charity.
At least you admit that.
You feel like a steak? To eat.
I don't want a steak. Let's just
grab some tacos on the way to the shop.
-I have some stuff I want to try out.
-Okay.
We can get some tacos on the way,
or we can get a steak afterwards.
What are you talking about?
I'm not paying for a steak.
It's stable?
Aaron, it's stable?
-What did you do to this thing?
-What?
-It looks like a dog digested it.
-Okay, that's the plate.
I rigged this into the box
so I could control the feed.
-I figured it's the easiest way--
-It's just controlling the box.
The plate stays the same.
What you do is you gradually feed it.
Okay. You hear that? How it's....
See, I'm not touching it anymore.
It's growing with its own momentum.
It's like a feedback loop,
and it just regulates itself.
And what you do is when it gets there,
you bring it back...
and there you go, it coasts.
It's stable. It stays like that.
So it works?
-Yeah, it does.
-What is that, like 10°%°?
It knocks another couple of points
by the time it reaches the peak.
You may want to come over here
and take a look at this.
Okay, what am I looking at?
-What are we pulling out of the batteries?
-Probably 24 volts.
-I mean, no more than that, right?
-Okay.
So your meter's jacked up.
That's what I figured. So I tried three others.
I got the exact same thing.
-I spent all last night--
-What was it?
I spent last night and a two-hour break
just double-checking everything.
There's something wrong here. We're not
pulling out more than we're putting in.
-Slightly more.
-Well, yeah, whatever.
It's not like a volt and a half
more than we're putting in.
It's probably the batteries.
