[[Nega-Nick (masquerading as "our" Nick) and Trudy are starting to talk about what just happened to them when they inadvertently touched each other's hands. Nega-Nick wanted Trudy to take his hand to see if the experience happened again.]]
Alien: [in Nega-Nick's mind] What are you doing?! You will expose us!
Nega-Nick: [thinking] We'll only learn to block it with practice. No time like the present!
[[As Trudy reluctantly takes Nega-Nick's hand, the world around them fades to gray and they see a flood of images. Images include Nick yelling angrily at Trudy, the Great Skaboola, Nikki Ronat screaming, Ki Oshiro and some of the alien invaders from Emperor Nickolas' universe, Trudy laying in her hospital bed, and Lieutenant Stone's death. Trudy struggles to understand, but the images are too much.]]
Trudy: [thinking] Too... much... I... can't... think...
Nega-Nick: [thinking] Fight it! Concentrate, or you'll lose yourself...
[[Both are shocked that their thoughts were "heard" by the other, and both stare at the other across the table. Trudy's stare is shocked, while Nega-Nicks is more cunning.]]
Trudy: [thinking] I didn't say that... you... heard my thoughts!
Nega-Nick: [thinking] Isn't this an interesting development...
