They are just about to Wyoming when Cypress asks: "Making literally anything includes making things that - don't technically exist but physically could? Such as, I don't know, an instruction manual for a spaceship you invented?"
(The Zevs have left the main cabin again. It's a really good thing their room is soundproofed.)

Cam makes him a small slice of Swiss cheese and hands it over. "Let that be a lesson to you."
