〃What makes you think Im worried about anything?〃 Norman asked。
〃Your face;〃 Harry said。 〃Thats what makes me think youre worried。〃
〃Maybe I am;〃 Norman said。 〃But about this sphere。。。〃
〃You know; Ive been thinking a lot about that sphere。〃
〃And?〃
〃Its quite amazing。 I really dont remember what happened。〃
〃Harry。〃
〃I feel fine…I feel better all the time; honest to God; my energys back; headaches gone…and earlier I remembered everything about that sphere and what was inside it。 But every minute that passes; it seems to fade。 You know; the way a dream fades? You remember it when you wake up; but an hour later; its gone?〃
〃Harry。〃
〃I remember that it was wonderful; and beautiful。 Something about lights; swirling lights。 But thats all。〃
〃How did you get the door to open?〃
''155'' 〃Oh; that。 It was very clear at the time; I remember I had worked it all out; I knew exactly what to do。〃
〃What did you do?〃
〃Im sure it will e back to me。〃
〃You dont remember how you opened the door?〃
〃No。 I just remember this sudden insight; this certainty; about how it was done。 But I cant remember the details。 Why; does somebody else want to go in? Ted; probably。〃
〃Im sure Ted would like to go in…〃
〃…I dont know if thats a good idea。 Frankly; I dont think Ted should do it。 Think how boring hell be with his speeches; after he es out。 I visited an alien sphere by Ted Fielding。 Wed never hear the end of it。〃
And he giggled。
Ted is right; Norman thought。 Hes definitely manic。 There was a speedy; overly cheerful quality to Harry。 His characteristic slow sarcasm was gone; replaced by a sunny; open; very quick manner。 And a kind of laughing indifference to everything; an imbalance in his sense of what was important。 He had said he couldnt crack the code。 He had said he couldnt remember what happened inside the sphere; or how he had opened it。 And he didnt seem to think it mattered。
〃Harry; when you first came out of the sphere; you seemed worried。〃
〃Did I? Had a brutal headache; I remember that。〃
〃You kept saying we should go to the surface。〃
〃Did I?〃
〃Yes。 Why was that?〃
〃God only knows。 I was so confused。〃
〃You also said it was dangerous for us to stay here。〃 Harry smiled。
〃Norman; you cant take that too seriously。 I didnt know if I was ing or going。〃
〃Harry; we need you to remember these things。 If things start to e back to you; will you tell me?〃
〃Oh sure; Norman。 Absolutely。 You can count on me; Ill tell you right away。〃
THE LABORATORY
〃No;〃 Beth said。 〃none of it makes sense。 First of all; in areas where fish havent encountered human beings before; they tend to ignore humans unless they are hunted。 The Navy divers didnt hunt the fish。 Second; if the divers stirred up the bottom; thatd actually release nutrients and attract more animals。 Third; many species of animals are attracted to electrical currents。 So; if anything; the shrimps and other animals shouldve been drawn here earlier by the electricity。 Not now; with the power off。〃
