Digit, Jackie, Inez, and Matt miscalculate the amount of cryoxide they would need to fill Motherboard's tank. Her tank had more depth than they thought since part of it was hidden. They discuss how the shape of the container doesn't determine how much liquid it can hold; its total volume does. They use the contaminated junk they previously took out from the tank to determine how much more cryoxide to obtain.
