1 Steve: These notes in the margin look like a time travel spell. But it's all written in alchemical symbols! Crikey!
2 Jane Goodall: Let me see that. I can read those.
3 Terry: You can read ancient alchemical symbology?
4 Terry: Yeah, yeah, okay. You're Jane freakin' Goodall.
4 Jane Goodall: I told you not to forget that.

Is there nothing this woman cannot do??

Wait... How does Steve know it looks like a time travel spell if he can't figure out the alchemical symbols?

Sometimes it's best not to ask.
