Plot summary
Perry Frank gathers a team for an experiment with a machine built to reanimate the dead. Alongside him are Carter Watts, a friend and protege, Devin Fischer, a biologist, and Ampersand Garner, an engineer who goes by Amps. In private, Devin and Amps doubt Carter's usefulness, but the four speak with optimism in taped interviews Perry arranges. Perry explains that the funding covers five subjects only, so the work must go slowly and carefully. As the equipment goes up, Amps and Carter grow friendly. Devin tells Perry that his father, a scientist, most regretted that later teams completed his work, and Devin intends to carry this experiment to its finish. The first subject is an insect, and the test fails. Devin suggests dropping insects, since the machine was designed around mammals, and Perry reluctantly agrees.
