TrystI am helping to conserve endangered species.
By putting them in this machine?
TrystYes.
Ah yes, of course. Just in the same way a jam maker conserves raspberries.

[The Doctor and Tryst are discussing the CET machine]
And you invented this marvelous machine to collect your specimens? You know, I knew a man once who toyed with an idea like this. What was his name, a Professor... Professor Stein?
TrystProfessor Stein!
Yes.
Tryst[delighted] Oh! A dear friend! He was my mentor! We worked on this idea together before he died, of course. Then we stopped.
TrystOh! I'm so delighted that you're taking an interest in my CET machine.
I'm absolutely amazed.
TrystYes! Well, it is rather impressive, isn't it?
No, I mean I'm amazed at you, Tryst, using a machine like this when it's still so primitive. The whole thing's utterly unstable.
Tryst[stammering] ...Well, I value your opinion, Doctor...
Good, good, I value my life, and this machine makes me fear for it!
TrystIt does?
Yes!
TrystWell, what do you think is so wrong?
Well, at a rough guess, I'd say the spatial integrator... transmutation oscillator... hologistic retention circuit, shall I go on?
TrystOh, yes...
Dimensional osmosis damper?
TrystAh... the what?
[shocked] You mean you haven't even got a dimensional osmosis damper!?
TrystAhh...
Professor, you don't realize how unstable this machine is!
