T-Rex: Once upon a time there was a brilliant scientist named Mary! Guys, Mary had her own problems.
T-Rex: She was born with a disease where she only saw in black and white!
T-Rex: Also, she's spent her entire life in single black-and-white room equipped with a black-and-white computer screen. Despite this she's still super successful, and has learnt each and every piece of the physical information there is to learn about the neurophysiology of vision! She knows EVERYTHING about how colour works, how light interacts with the eye, and so on.
T-Rex: Good work, Mary!
Utahraptor: And then one day doctors cure her disease and let her out of the room!
T-Rex: Exactly!
T-Rex: And the question is: when she first looks up at a beautiful blue sky and actually experiences colour for the first time - does she learn anything new?
Utahraptor: I don't know, I just wanted to release Mary from the prison you'd built for her. Later, she finds a great partner and is super happy!
T-Rex: What? No! She's still not sure if seeing colour helped-
Off panel: She interrupts that thought to say the whole room thing was a dream, and reminds herself that she's really an astronaut! From the FUTURE.
T-Rex: ...
T-Rex: ...Go on
