The Nobel Prize in Physics 2022 has been awarded to three pioneers for their experiments on the foundations of quantum mechanics and its potential future applications. In this popular science talk we will tell the entangled story of how generations of physicists tried to interfere with the long-distance relationship between Alice and Bob. (Spoiler alert: featuring Einstein as the antagonist!)
