Of alternate dimensions and mad scientists...

Near the flashing sign, a door materializes seemingly out of thin air. A second later it opens and a white-haired man in a long white lab coat walks through.

"My turn to get the snacks again, I could have sworn it was Mimet's... Maybe I should keep better track," the preoccupied man mutters under his breath. He closes the door and turns to look at the Nexus...and stops dead. The man looks back at the door, then at the Nexus, then back at the door once again. "...Not again."

He tries to go back through the door, but this time, it won't open. In a sudden fit of anger, the man grabs at the doorknob and tugs furiously on it. The door retaliates by disappearing, leaving the man to fall onto his backside in the middle of the street. Agitated, he stares at the empty space before getting up and brushing his lab coat off. Then, he notices the sign.

A question...Why not? He clears his throat and adjusts his glasses, like nothing at all had happened. "If you suspected a subordinate of yours was slacking off and not making an effort to work to her full potential, how would you recommend solving the situation?"
