This is the secure line of Quentin Beck, also known as Mysterio.

State your business and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

Large enough for a space-ship.

How much time?

If you want it to work perfectly - about three months.

Define perfectly.

The town rushed me. I was going to give them dreams. They got nightmares.

You could get the opposite.

If you rush me.

Well, we certainly wouldn't want that.

Three months is fine.

Could well be sooner, depending on how much information and extra funds you give me.

What sort of information?

What kind of people are you targeting? If they're not human then I will have to make further adjustments. And even human brains aren't all the same.

Would brain scans help?

They could. Any specific brain data will make the results much more effective.

I'll transmit some to you, then. Once you have a lab.

Good. Now, is there anything else?

At the moment, no.

Of course there will be a delay in my work until the town is satisfied I've paid some penance. But then I can get started on your project.

Yes, I assumed you meant three months after that penance was complete.
