Then Jack smacked Naoko's ass and said, "Come on, did you forget about Nora already?"
"No," she said, "but you're very distracting."
He smiled, gave her a quick kiss, and said, "Good."
Then he grabbed her neck and pulled her down the hall to Madison's office.
When they entered, he found Madison, Nora, and Rina, and Samantha all huddled around a screen, looking at it with a mixture of awe and excitement.
Nora looked up when he and Naoko entered, grinned at him, and then waved him over.
"Jack, come look at this!"
Dragging Naoko with him, he rounded the table, and Nora moved out of the way to make room for him in front of the computer screen.
She put a hand on his back and pointed at the screen.
"Look, it works!"
On the screen was a slow-motion video of a DNA strand being edited. And it wasn't CRISPR he was looking at. It was something else.
"Is that the DNA editor you were talking about? Did you succeed already?"
