Chapter Text
“Hey, Geek?” Sam asks. “Yeah?” Responds Geek who is messing with some contraption. “I just realized that Max and I haven't given you any money towards building the lab. How on earth did you get the funds to build it?” Sam asks. “Do you do commissions?” Max asks. “The answer is very simple, gentlemen.” Geek says as they get up and lead Sam and Max to their computer. “You see in the field of mathematics, there are several problems that remain unsolved. Several problems that the mathematicians would call “Hard and complicated as heck, yo.” their words, not mine. And have cash prizes for anybody who can solve these problems.” Geek explains as they reach the computer. “You see, I’ve already solved half of the problems already. I just wait when I need more funds and cash the answer in for some quick dough.” Geek finishes. “That’s genius!” Max exclaims. “Which part? The solving previously unsolved math problems or saving the answers for later when cash is low?” Sam asks. “Both!” Max exclaims. “How much does each answer get you, Geek?” Sam asks. Geek thinks for a moment. “The most I’ve ever gotten was one million dollars.” Sam and Max both jump. “One million?!” They both exclaim. “Yep. How else can I afford to fix the car every Tuesday?” Geek jokes. The three of them laugh.
