"You came in through a computer, correct?" Brain asked WakkoRyan.
"That's right," said WakkoRyan. "I used a personality transdimensionalizer implantation portal to transfer my mind to the body I'm in right now."
"Then by logic, we would use a computer to get you back to the real world." Brain walked over to a nearby computer and turned it on.
"Good point. But how do we link this world with the real world?"
"With technology similar to that which got you here. We don't have the elements to create a portal in the same way that you described to me, but we could send brief data bundles to a known location, perhaps two, and accept data bundles. It just has to be to someone you trust, because they will have to manually participate in transferring you, in the form of data, to your real body. If your real body is still alive."
WakkoRyan shuddered at the possibility that he could now exist solely in toon form. "And who is to say that my body isn't perfectly fine?"
"It has been a week," Brain said. "If no one came to visit, you would have starved by now. Besides, my theory is that your body, Ryan, suffered the same injuries that you, WakkoRyan, suffered in this world."
"Great, just great," WakkoRyan said, rolling his eyes and extending his arms outwards in an exasperated gesture. After a brief pause to fight off the urge to cough again, he said, "so, about that data transfer…could that be done so that it is sent to an instant messenger?"
"Precisely. We may even be able to carry two conversations at once. Allow me a minute to do some calculations."
After fifty-eight seconds, Yakko said, "it's been a minute…nnnow! So, Brain what is the answer?"
"The answer is that you are an idiot. There are several questions that may lead to that answer."
WakkoRyan couldn't help but smile, and he thought he saw Wakko and Dot stifling giggles out of the corner of his eye.
"There we are…I'm ready to enter the information for the recipient or recipients," Brain said.
"Okkay…I think Carley is the only one that will believe me."
"Go ahead," said Brain. "She is online."
