Ada travels from her grandmother's basement to Nikola Tesla's New York workshop in 1893. Tesla shows her a glowing glass tube near a giant coil and explains alternating current. At the Chicago World's Fair, Ada nearly unplugs a main cable, fixes it, and watches thousands of lamps blaze. She returns home knowing alternating current carries electricity far away and still powers her outlets.
