Transcript
00:00I can't believe I'm here.
00:18Valley View Lab's future quest facility.
00:21And for the next week, the ultimate science and space camp.
00:25It's him!
00:26Commander Duke Conrad!
00:28How could you miss him?
00:30Well, I suppose if we had entered the facility blindfolded and with earplugs, we might be...
00:34I'm being sarcastic, Gizmo.
00:36His face is plastered everywhere.
00:38Would you stop it, Joy?
00:39His face isn't everywhere.
00:40Oh, Chris!
00:41I brought your Commander Conrad memorabilia like you asked, so you can get it autographed.
00:47Not now, Gizmo.
00:49Well, so what?
00:51Commander Conrad is a real hero, Joy.
00:53He's flown dozens of deep space missions, developed the Heisenberg Horizon Space Hub,
00:57and...
00:58Huh?
00:59Welcome to Valley View Lab's future quest academy, cadets.
01:23Thank you, sir!
01:24Okay, just there you are.
01:26I'd like you to meet Commander Conrad.
01:28Wait a minute.
01:30What?
01:31Welcome to future quest, kids.
01:33But how...
01:34Wha...
01:35There are two of you.
01:38Yes, definitely two of them.
01:53It's the word for all time.
01:55The word for all the world.
01:59The story's forever alive.
02:03Superbook!
02:04Yeah!
02:05Superbook!
02:06The word!
02:07Superbook!
02:08Superbook!
02:09Yeah!
02:10Superbook!
02:11The word!
02:12Superbook!
02:14Here at Valley View Labs, we have a passion for science, Chris.
02:23Investigate everything in the universe.
02:25Study it.
02:26Learn as much as you can about it.
02:28Down to the movement of every subatomic particle.
02:30Then reverse engineer it and use that knowledge for the progress of humanity.
02:35For example...
02:38Meet Qubit.
02:40Valley View Labs' advanced, artificially intelligent droid.
02:43Wow!
02:44Amazing!
02:45Welcome.
02:46My volumetric cloaking device allows me to project a highly complex three-dimensional particle field
02:50that replicates shapes collected through my various senses.
02:59Something may appear to be one thing, children,
03:02but the job of young scientific minds like yours is to investigate and discover the truth.
03:08So, who's ready to launch into future quest?
03:11I am! I am! I am so excited!
03:13I can't believe this! I'm going to burst a casket!
03:15My senses have detected operational inefficiencies.
03:18Your motor processing unit is consuming 2.98% of your internal battery.
03:22Your gearing ratios in the posterior axis hatch are...
03:24Thank you, Qubit.
03:26But if I wanted an operational diagnostic, I would have asked for an operational diagnostic.
03:33I have been asking Professor Quantum for an operational diagnostic for three months.
03:38Qubit, I do not want your help!
03:53Wow! Would you just look at this place!
03:57I can't wait to try a spacewalk, Commander!
04:00Why don't I sign you and Chris up for that activity first thing?
04:03All right!
04:05Son, if you need anything, I'll be a guest counselor in this lab all week.
04:09That's also where you'll prepare your end-of-camp demonstrations.
04:12Each cadet, or team of cadets, is required to apply what they've learned during the week
04:17into a presentation of their research.
04:19I'll be in charge of the presentation.
04:21Each cadet, or team of cadets, is required to apply what they've learned during the week
04:25into a presentation at the close of camp.
04:27A good scientist must be able to effectively communicate his hypothesis.
04:31Like your father, I suspect you've got science built into your DNA, Chris.
04:36Sir, yes sir, Commander!
04:38You forgot to get him to sign your footie PJs, Chris.
04:52Watch what these MagSim suits can let you do!
04:55Woo-hoo!
04:56Check this out, Joy!
04:59Word to Chris, can we focus, please? They're going to time us, you know.
05:03All right, all right.
05:05Okay, now remember, Commander Conrad once saved the lives of his entire crew
05:10by courageously doing an untethered spacewalk to replace the core heating element on the space hub.
05:15You need to try and accomplish the task in the same time or your whole crew will freeze in space.
05:20You're in good hands, kids!
05:23Ready timer!
05:27Go!
05:36Get out!
05:37What's all the commotion?
05:39Chris Quantum just found a new path to the heating element!
05:42He's ten seconds ahead of your historic mission, Commander!
05:45Well, I am impressed.
05:47You're still ahead of the clock, Chris!
05:50Commander Conrad!
05:53No pressure.
05:57Whatever you do, don't let the core element touch the sides of the chamber.
06:01Thanks, Joy.
06:03Big help.
06:09Lord, please help me.
06:12Chris?
06:14What is he doing?
06:16Chris?
06:18What is he doing?
06:19It looks like he's praying, sir.
06:23In Jesus' name, thank you, Lord.
06:26You can do it, Chris! You still have fifteen seconds!
06:30He's gonna do it!
06:39Help!
06:41Chris, help me!
06:43Accessing your system directly will allow me to more accurately analyze your central protocol.
06:51Wait!
07:02Chris, Joy, it appears Q-Bit and Gizmo created a breach that stopped the simulation.
07:07Yes, sir.
07:09Gizmo?
07:11Q-Bit?
07:14Q-Bit?
07:17Please, sir, let me try it again.
07:19I know I can complete the mission.
07:21I was so close.
07:23Chris, were you praying or something instead of carrying out your task?
07:28Well, I said a quick prayer.
07:31Are you saying you were asking a god to assist you?
07:35Yes, well, THE god.
07:39I see.
07:40This is a scientific facility, Chris, and science works on evidence.
07:45And let me tell you, I've been looking into space for a long time, and not once have I come across evidence for any gods.
07:52So, as a scientist, no evidence, no gods.
07:57Well, I've experienced God. I know He's real.
08:03If we can't demonstrate it scientifically, it's not real.
08:07But there's all kinds of things we can't demonstrate scientifically, Commander Conrad.
08:12I mean, what about right and wrong?
08:15What is beautiful?
08:17That the past is real.
08:19Yes, I understand, but God?
08:22I mean, there's no room for fairy tales in science, Chris.
08:27We all need to think like scientists if we're going to make great advancements for humankind.
08:33I do think scientifically, Dr. Conrad.
08:36I love science. My dad's a scientist, and so is my grandpa.
08:41Well, maybe you should talk to your dad about it sometime.
08:46Now, who's ready to get some lunch at the Comet Cafe?
08:50Chris, Joy, get out of those suits and come along.
08:57Great. Now Commander Conrad thinks I'm a total nutjob.
09:01Sounds like someone has spent a bit too much time in zero gravity.
09:05Actually, gravity is measured at GM1 M2 over R squared.
09:09And though the gravitational pull of an object can be very low, it never reaches absolute zero.
09:14That does it.
09:17Hey, Qubit, did you know that the gravitational force inside my chest cavity may be exactly zero?
09:24That is impossible.
09:27Well, I...
09:29Yes, you are probably right.
09:32What did he mean, talk to your dad?
09:35You know my dad, Joy. We never really talk about God.
09:40Maybe Commander Conrad is right. About evidence.
09:45What do you mean?
09:47I never thought about that before. I mean, we just believe because we've experienced God.
09:54But isn't that evidence?
09:57Yeah. It's evidence for us.
09:59But how do you show someone who hasn't had our experience?
10:03Super Fork!
10:10If only Dr. Conrad was still here! This would have to qualify as evidence!
10:21I am taking you to meet a man who knew how to defend the truth in the face of greatness.
10:27The truth in the face of great skepticism.
10:40Where are we, Gizmo?
10:42Qubit!
10:44Go, Gizmo! You were right! I did experience zero gravity!
10:48Oh, wow! This is not value, you lads.
10:51Oh, great. Now we've got two of them.
10:54Gizmo, do an info scan and find out where we are.
10:57We have landed in Athens, Greece. First century, sir.
11:03And the marketplace is approximately 14 meters southeast of our location.
11:07Athens is the epicenter of academia in the ancient world.
11:10Home to a variety of philosophical schools and many different religious beliefs and practices.
11:15Is your name Gizmo?
11:18My name is Qubit. Value, you lads. Advanced, artificially intelligent droid.
11:22You know, Qubit, I have a lot of experience with time travel,
11:27so it is probably safer, you know, to avoid detection if you get back in here and stay out of sight.
11:33No problem. I will scan the area and use my cloaking device to blend in.
11:41Huh? Sorry, no. That is a horrible disguise.
11:45Knock it off, Gizmo. I need to find this defender of the truth.
11:49Superbook mentioned. So he can help me with Commander Conrad.
11:53Come on, experience time traveler.
12:19Wow! The Greeks have the upper hand.
12:23They have the upper hand.
12:26They have the upper hand.
12:29They have the upper hand.
12:32They have the upper hand.
12:35They have the upper hand.
12:38They have the upper hand.
12:41They have the upper hand.
12:44They have the upper hand.
12:47Wow! The Greeks have the opposite problem Commander Conrad has.
12:52It looks like they believe in every possible god.
12:56And goddess.
12:58Hey, doesn't that man look familiar? I think we've met him before.
13:02Gizmo, do a facial recognition scan.
13:05Excuse me. My facial recognition scan indicates...
13:09It's the Apostle Paul. I remember him. Come on.
13:13Well, I guess I am just not needed on this trip.
13:16There you are. Where have you been? I sent you to get that bull over three hours ago.
13:21I'm afraid I am unaware.
13:23Yes, you did. And Alex and I were on our way.
13:30I'm Joy, by the way. And we were just about to...
13:34That's enough. Fortunately, we don't need that bull until the festival.
13:38Just come with me. You have some work to do.
13:41Cupid, no. You don't disguise yourself as a real person.
13:44Affirmative. No disguise. No, no, no, no. Go back. Go back.
13:49Hurry up.
13:52I'll come too. Maybe I can help. Go get Chris.
13:57Advanced intelligent droid. My posterior thermal coupling.
14:02Please, let me explain.
14:06One true God. It is important that we define our terms clearly.
14:11What do you mean by God?
14:16He is our Father, longing for us to be reconciled to Him.
14:21That is why He sent His Son, Jesus.
14:25What is this babbler saying?
14:28Seems to be a proclaimer of foreign gods.
14:30You are saying some rather strange things, Paul. It is certainly new.
14:35Let us have him speak to the leaders at the Areopagus.
14:39They are always interested in something new.
14:48Well, Paul, what do you say?
14:51Care to see how your God fares among the greatest minds in Athens?
14:54I would.
14:57We will go make arrangements.
15:04Chris!
15:06Gizmo!
15:08We're adjoining Qubit.
15:10Well, Qubit's brilliant disguise was not so brilliant after all.
15:14He disguised himself as a real boy named Alex.
15:17The boy's father showed up right after him.
15:19And he took Qubit and Joy away.
15:21What? Where?
15:23I do not know. He said something about a bull.
15:26Oh, okay, okay. Just go find them and meet me at the...
15:30the Areopagus. I need to talk to Paul.
15:33I am on it.
15:36Hi, I'm Chris.
15:38And you're Paul, the Apostle of Jesus.
15:42I am indeed.
15:44And you are?
15:45Paul, the Apostle of Jesus.
15:48I am indeed. How do you know me?
15:51Everybody knows you. You are the...
15:54I mean, you know, I heard you speaking and...
15:58I'm a Christian too.
16:00Well, that is good news.
16:02I could use your help here.
16:04Many people need to hear about Jesus.
16:07Yeah, I can see that.
16:09I'd like to help, but I'm not very good at...
16:13you know, knowing what to say.
16:15I mean, there are so many different people with...
16:18so many different beliefs.
16:20How do you know what to say?
16:22A very good question, Chris.
16:24Come with me. I want to show you something.
16:29These tools are very inefficient for the task at hand.
16:32I can use my...
16:33No, no, no, no, Qubit.
16:35Let's stick with their technology for now.
16:38We've got to get out of here and find Chris and Gizmo
16:41before the real Alex gets back.
16:43Come, let me show you some others.
16:45Come on, now's our chance.
16:51It's the real Alex.
16:53Joy, I found you.
16:55I trapped your Valley View Labs wristband and...
16:57Gizmo, shh, quickly.
16:59It's Alex, the real one behind us.
17:03Hi, Alex, right?
17:06Right. Who are you?
17:08I'm Joy. I'm just helping your dad out with...
17:11you know, some work.
17:14So, you got another bowl, huh?
17:17Yes, these are very special bowls.
17:19No spot or blemish.
17:21Joy, it is me.
17:23Hey, and me.
17:25Nothing but the best for the gods.
17:28What do you mean, for the gods?
17:31Oh, these bowls are for sacrificing.
17:33What?
17:35Right, that is something.
17:44It says, to an unknown god.
17:48They worship all these false gods,
17:51and then even a god they don't know at all?
17:54But they do not believe in the true god.
17:57Yeah, I know people like that.
18:00But how does another mysterious god help you?
18:04Paul, there you are.
18:06The arrangements have been made.
18:08The city leaders will hear you now.
18:09Of course.
18:21Would you stop that?
18:23So, how often do you sell these?
18:26I'm telling you, you're making the right choice.
18:29If you really want Zeus' favor,
18:31there's nothing better than a fine, stout bowl.
18:34Looks like the kids have already selected it.
18:36I don't know.
18:38This one just came in, so it's much, much fresher.
18:44Oh yeah, this one's a winner.
18:47No, this one is an excellent choice.
18:50Have fun looking at it.
18:52Come along.
18:54No.
18:56What are we going to do?
18:58I don't know.
19:06Now, Paul, tell us what your new teaching is all about.
19:10We have heard you say some strange things,
19:13and we want to know what you mean.
19:36Men of Athens,
19:39I notice that you are very religious in every way.
19:43For as I was walking along, I saw your many shrines.
19:47And one of your altars has this inscription on it.
19:50To an unknown god.
19:53This god, whom you worship without knowing,
19:56is the one I'm telling you about.
19:58He is the god who made the world and everything in it.
20:02Since he is lord of heaven and earth,
20:04he does not live in man-made temples.
20:08And human hands cannot serve his needs,
20:11for he has no needs.
20:13He himself gives life and breath to everything,
20:16and he satisfies every need.
20:19From one man, he created all the nations throughout the whole earth.
20:25He decided beforehand when they should rise and fall,
20:29and he determined their boundaries.
20:31His purpose was for the nations to seek after God
20:35and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him.
20:39Though he is not far from any one of us,
20:42for in him we live and move and exist.
20:46As some of your own poets have said,
20:48we are his offspring.
20:50And since this is true,
20:52we should not think of God as an idol,
20:55designed by craftsmen from gold or silver or stone.
20:58God overlooked people's ignorance about these things in earlier times.
21:03But now he commands everyone, everywhere,
21:06to repent of their sins and turn to him.
21:10For he has set a day for judging the world
21:13with justice by the man he has appointed.
21:16And he proved to everyone who this is
21:19by raising him from the dead.
21:22This is ridiculous! Rising from the dead?
21:26Dead men do not rise!
21:28Who is this man, Diodorus?
21:30Remove him! Enough of this foolishness!
21:33Crucified! Then resurrected!
21:41No one is listening.
21:44He didn't convince anyone.
21:46Chris!
21:47I found Joy and Cupid.
21:49And Cupid disguised himself as a bull.
21:51A bull?
21:53Yes, a sacrificial bull.
21:55A sacrificial bull?
21:57Yes, a bull used for sacrifices.
21:59What?
22:01And he's about to be sacrificed!
22:03No!
22:05Yes! Follow me!
22:11Wait a minute. That bull is Cupid's?
22:14Yes!
22:15Is Cupid's?
22:17Yes!
22:45Jesus, you died upon a cross
22:48and rose again to save the lost.
22:51Forgive me now of all my sin.
22:54Come be my Savior, Lord and friend.
22:57Change my life and make it new.
23:00Come be my Savior, Lord and friend.
23:03Jesus, you died upon a cross
23:06and rose again to save the lost.
23:09Forgive me now of all my sin.
23:12Change my life and make it new.
23:17And help me, Lord, to live for you.
23:22Change my life and make it new.
23:26And help me, Lord, to live for you.
23:41Jesus, you died upon a cross
23:46and rose again to save the lost.
23:51Forgive me now of all my sin.
23:55Come be my Savior, Lord and friend.
24:01Change my life and make it new.
24:06And help me, Lord, to live for you.
24:11Change my life and make it new.
24:16And help me, Lord, to live for you.
24:30Change my life and make it new.
24:35Help me, Lord, to live for you.
24:39Change my life and make it new.
24:45Won't you make it new?
24:48And help me, Lord, to live,
24:54to live for you.
