Transcript: A Simple Balance

DIGIT: There's a number lock on the lever. It won't budge till we enter the right code numbers.

INEZ: Is that what Hacker did to release the cyberstatic?

DIGIT: He had to! It's the only way the lock works.

JACKIE: Where do we get the numbers?

DIGIT: Off these weighty things. I watched the Doc do it once. He picked two weights - put one on each side of this scale and... INEZ: And what?

DIGIT: And uh, that's all I remember - except that something has to balance. Does, uh,that help?

JACKIE: Yeah, it helps! A balance scale to shows when two things weigh the same.

DIGIT: I knew that.

INEZ: We'll show you - maybe then you'll remember more. You and Matt put one weight on each side of the scale - and don't let me see the numbers!

INEZ: The numbers aren't the same.

DIGIT: How'd she know that?

MATT: Because the scale doesn't balance. It tipped down this way...so the weight on this side has to be heavier.

JACKIE: Which means the numbers on this weight is greater.

DIGIT: You're right! Eighteen is definitely more than nine. Even I know that!

JACKIE: So when Doctor Marbles said the weights had to balance - it was clue! Now do you remember what happened next?

DIGIT: Yes! I remember! He wrote the numbers that balanced in here!

MATT: Two places for the numbers - and an equalssign between them.

JACKIE: Equals means that two numbers have to have the same value - and that's just what the balance tells us!

INEZ: So we need two weights with the same numbers.

MATT: Here's a three! Is there another three down there?

JACKIE: Uh-uh! No threes!

DIGIT: Here's a five? Anyone got another five? Lookin for a five!

JACKIE: Got it!

JACKIE: It balances! Five equals five!

MATT: That must be the number code! I'll write it in.

DIGIT: Hold it!

DIGIT: I just remembered! We can't use just any old marker to enter the code! The Doc used this special one!

INEZ: Hurry! Sensible Flats is almost Static Flats!

MATT: Five on the left equals five on the right.

VOICE: Security access permitted.

KIDS: We did it!

MATT: The satellite is pulling the cyberstatic back in!

MATT: Sensible Flats is saved!
