PO President Orlean
Mmm-hmm. So how certain is this?
Dr. Randall Mindy
There's 100% certainty of impact.
PO President Orlean
Please, don't say 100%.
OA Old Aide #2
Can we just call it a potentiality significant event?
PO President Orlean
Yeah.
Kate Dibiasky
But it isn't potentially going to happen. It is going to happen.
Dr. Randall Mindy
Exactly, 99.78% to be exact.
Jason Orlean
Oh, great. Okay, so it's not 100%.
Dr. Teddy Oglethorpe
Well, scientists never like to say 100%.
PO President Orlean
Call it 70% and let's just move on.
Kate Dibiasky
But it's not even close to 70%.
PO President Orlean
You cannot go around saying to people that there's 100% chance that they're going to die. You know? It's just nuts.
W Waitress
That's an awfully official-looking White House badge you got there.
Dr. Randall Mindy
I don't know why I have this on.
ND Nearby Diner
Listen, just tell us what's going on.
GF Guy from the Bar
I got three scared kids at home. How about you just tell us something.
Dr. Randall Mindy
I understand. I wish could share information, but...
GF Guy from the Bar
We're people just like you. We deserve to know!
Kate Dibiasky
They're right. They deserve to know. Do you really wanna know what's going on?
Dr. Teddy Oglethorpe
Kate, don't. Kate.
Dr. Randall Mindy
Kate.
Kate Dibiasky
They found a bunch of gold and diamonds and rare shit on the comet. So they're gonna let it hit the planet to make a bunch of rich people even more disgustingly rich!
Dr. Randall Mindy
[Kate sits in a car with a bag over her head]
I did everything I could. They won't listen.
Kate Dibiasky
Surprise, surprise.
Dr. Teddy Oglethorpe
I'm starting to think you just like riling people up.
Dr. Randall Mindy
I'm so sorry, Kate. Really, I am.
Kate Dibiasky
Oh, Randall. God. Where's Brie Evantee? Shouldn't you two be playing footsie in a restaurant that only serves cubes and foam?
Dr. Teddy Oglethorpe
Well, she ain't wrong. You did lose the thread in a big way.
Dr. Randall Mindy
And what do you suggest we do? An online petition, huh? You want to hold... Get a mob and hold up picket signs? You wanna overthrow the government? I mean, look at this.
Kate Dibiasky
I can't! My head is in a bag!
