"Ohhhh, okay! I see how this works. That little black tape in there, that's the pictures! That's how film works in cameras on my world. Big long strings of see-through paper that capture images. I guess this is... A bunch of pictures all in a row?"
He excitedly offers the VHS to Jim and shouts, "Put your finger in the hole on the back and spin it real fast! Make the movie play!" So close but so far.
