Ned's Little Buddy

"We have a dream to discuss apparently we need to do some dream interpretation uh need to see if we can figure out a way to get back through the gate," says Thacker. "I'm just so used to having bad dreams i assumed the first one was the real one and the second one was a fanciful firing of my neurosynapses", he adds. The next morning show up at the cryptonomica where they meet with Ned's little buddy curvy curvy who has not been doing great since Ned's passing. They talk about their experiences, but also try to think of ways to help each other in order to save kepler from extinction.
