Jeff R.: No Doubt Based on a Design by Rambaldi

"And here's our most important gadget."

"Looks like a cell phone."

"Ah, but it's so much more. This cell phone enables faster-than-light communication."

"So?"

"So when an agent is in the field, say, in Ankara, when her cover has her in Chicago, and her friend in DC calls her, she isn't given away immediately by the lag time that a normal cell call would have while the signal travels around the world."

"Wouldn't it be easier to not let our agents take personal calls in the field?"

"You haven't met them. Trust me, changing the laws of physics was easier."
