"The Egg is a grand success. Churches want to buy it and use it to unite couples long separated. Everybody wants the Egg. Our marketing department has set the price of the Egg at $10,000,000," the executive CEO stated.
Claire stared at Francis for what seemed to be a long time. Francis was beaming with a shameless and proud smile.
"The Egg can possibly POSSIBLY lead to immoral results," Claire stated.
"What do you mean?" asked the executive CEO.
"What if someone puts in a six year old girl with a much older man?" Claire asked.
"We cannot determine how it is used, Claire. We really cannot determine morality."
"Why can't we determine morality?"
"Our job is not to determine morality but to produce original products. Besides, it is highly unlikely that a six year old's dream could correspond to a dream of a much older man."
"But it could happen..."
"Claire, it is not what you think. I went in the machine with Francis and it was a very fulfilling experience, almost spiritual. It really makes you bond with another person," Jason Lambert interrupted.
"With almost a complete stranger?" Claire asked.
"This is getting absurd. The morality of people are personal. It's not our business to promote morality," Francis asserted.
"The meeting is adjourned. The Egg will be sold be $10,000,000."
"Jason," Claire blurted.
"What is it Claire?"
"Is it true what I heard about the Freemasons?"
"What did you hear?"
"I heard that after a costume party in which the wife and husband attend, the husband and wife go into a room set for them. Then, they are supposed to renew their marriage vows and have sex that is supposed to be like the very first time... except when the husband goes into the bathroom, another Freemason with the same clothes and even similar features replaces him."
"No, it's not true. Where do you hear these things?"
"Why won't you have dinner with me?"
Jason looked at Francis and then at Claire.
"Why don't we go to a museum tonight?"
"Perfect."
