LATER THAT EVENING, NAPOLEON AND HIS SISTER ARE HAVING DINNER AT A SMALL TABLE IN THE GENERAL STORE
NAPOLEON: I'm worried about the Sandwich-Faced Daddy's Boys. And not sleeping makes it worse. But enough about me. What do you do these days?
CLEOPATRA: The same — astronomy. During the winter I work in the Dark Sector. That's an area near the South Pole with lots of astronomy equipment. We maintain radio wave silence there so the instruments aren't disturbed.
NAPOLEON: Instruments like saxophones?
