		<description>Never mind any of that. If it&#039;s the 30th century, why is the doctor still wearing glasses?</description>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bad said: &#8220;I don&#8217;t get it: what happens to the tissue occupying the space that the &#8220;healing pill&#8221; phases back into?&#8221;</p>
<p>Ah, but the doctor never actually says that the capsule phases back in. I propose that it remains in fourth-dimensional space, somehow connected to Sun Boy&#8217;s ankle. From there, its unspecified curative rays can filter back into the three-dimensional world at a predetermined rate and arrive at the site of the injury.</p>
<p>Mind you, if the capsule is invisible, intangible and away in the Fourth Dimension, they only have the doctor&#8217;s word for it that he&#8217;s done anything at all.</p>

		<description>Ben: You&#039;ve opened up a can of worms with that. Now we have to wonder how the tiny man eats and breathes (and evacuates waste) while inside Sun Boy&#039;s ankle bone (!?)</description>

		<description>Oh, and was just thinking about those gloves from White Dwarf the other day. The SFX for putting on those gloves was simply rolling film backwards, and yet I was rapt with attention every time they did it. It looked so awesome as the glove &#039;attacked&#039; the fingers</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t get it: what happens to the tissue occupying the space that the &quot;healing pill&quot; phases back into?

Why can they still see the end of the pliers and the pill even though they need to be completely out of our particular 3rd dimensional plane in order to pass through anything?

How is implanting a pill a form of surgery?  They didn&#039;t cut anything.  Is it surgery when I insert an oreo into my mouth?</description>
