At dinner...

- Listen, Jose... we shipped the whole microscope system from the UK, right? The whole thing, with the lasers, the optics… all packed in crates. Well, we lost track of it after a day or two. I mean, it disappeared completely! It was nowhere to be found. Then, a week later, these crates start appearing in Crete. They had all followed different paths, you see? Some parts went through Italy, others crossed Hungary, Romania, it was chaos…
- Did you manage to assemble it?
- Oh yes. It was working nicely. The lasers aligned and all. D. and C. even tested it with some cells they transfected in the hotel room…
- In the hotel room??
- Yep. In the bathtub, with hot water running...
