PAGE 39 (Four panels)

Panel 1: Something like a giant beach ball blowing up into the tank where Hiram dropped the capsule.

SFX – DETONATING CAPSULE (1): FWOOOM!

Translation (1): ¡BOOOOM!

Panel 2: Hiram pointing to a projected slide. It shows a silhouette of a woman in profile. In the middle of the silhouette, mapped out in white space, is a representation of her digestive tract. A dotted line from her mouth down to her stomach indicates the path that the capsule has presumably taken. Hiram is pointing at a little capsule shown resting in her stomach.

CAPTION – UNSEEN INTERVIEWER (2): How is that supposed to help you capture the creature?

Translation (2): ¿Cómo se supone que eso te ayuda a capturar a la criatura?

Hiram (3): Simple, really. Our subject swallows the capsule at the start of the exercise.

Translation (3): Es muy simple, en realidad. Nuestra sujeto de estudio se traga la cápsula al inicio del ejercicio.

Panel 3: Hiram pointing to another projection. It is a large silhouette of the outline of the creature (or what the research team thinks it looks like anyway). There is a similar white space representing the creature’s digestive tract, and in the middle of that tract, another silhouette of a woman. There is also another dotted line showing the path that the woman took from the mouth of the siphon down to the creature’s stomach.

Hiram (4): In the course of her interaction with the creature, the subject will be ingested and then subsequently digested.

Translation (4): Durante su interacción con la criatura, la sujeto de estudio será ingerida y después digerida.

Panel 4: Another projection, this time showing the creature, change will be detected by but with a FWOOM in the middle of its digestive tract.

Hiram (5): At a sufficiently advanced stage of the digestion of the subject, the chemical change will be detected by the sensors, setting off the explosive charge.

Translation (5): En una etapa suficientemente avanzada de la digestión de la sujeto de estudio, los sensores detectarán el cambio químico, activando la carga explosiva.

Hiram (6): We believe the resulting explosion will both stun the creature and, by changing its buoyancy, force it to the surface, where it can be collected.

Translation (6): Creemos que la explosión aturdirá a la criatura y además, al cambiar su flotabilidad, la obligará a salir a la superficie, donde podrá ser capturada.
