[A single frame with a table in the middle. A device consisting of multiple components and electrical wires is on the table. A Cueball stands to the left of the table with hands open, and facing him, Ponytail and another Cueball stand to the right of the table.]

Cueball: My layered silicon crystals can amplify or switch current while sitting right here on the table!

Another Cueball: I see.
