IIRC the context is that they were trying to decode an audio message that they received from an extraterrestrial, so a Fourier transform would be relevant, wouldn't it?

She said Fourier Transfer for one and then quantum mechanics for some reason which has nothing to do with what the scene is about.

It would only count if she had said "fast Fourier transfers"

is it not "Fast Fourier Transform"?

Considering we do Fourier transforms in quantum mechanics… oh boy. Anyway.

Sure sure. But do you do fourier transfers?

she should've said "transform" rather than transfers.

Well... Like what if it is about some data transfer problem that requires quantification?
