Zim was finishing constructing his flash light and magnifying glass. Gir was watching the monkey on the TV.
"I love this show…"
Zim, finished with the light and magnifying glass, paused and glared at the TV.
"That monkey…"
Gir laughed.
"Gir! Get over here."
"Okay."
"When I say so, press this button."
Gir reached for it and Zim slapped his hand.
"Not yet Gir! When I say so."
Gir's eyes changed and he saluted. "Yes, sir!"
Zim activated the reactor. The goo inside began to cause it to overload.
"Press it Gir!"
Gir did nothing.
"Press the button!"
"You said 'when I say so'."
"So! So! Press it before we blow up!"
"Wha?"
Zim ran over and pressed the button himself, just in time. The flash light activated and the light hit the glass, focused into a laser beam and shot into space.
The sensors said that the beam hadn't hit the moon, the intended test target.
The beam had hit a satellite, bounced off the solar panels and cut a wide path of destruction through New York.
"Another failure."
