:19:00
...but it's important
to show it, you know.

:19:05
That's what we're here for...
:19:08
...to learn not to hide our feelings.
:19:18
- fullness, with a swift retreat
of the great shadow...

:19:20
... when the sun, clearing the ridge...
:19:23
... looked down, hot and dry...
:19:26
... with a devouring glare...
:19:28
... like the eye of an enemy.
:19:31
But Heyst, once the Number One
of this locality...

:19:36
- Yeah?
- Dr. Harris?

:19:38
Proteus Four is requesting
dialogue with you.

:19:43
- Requesting?
- Yes, sir.

:19:47
Yeah. Yeah, I'll be right there.
:19:52
I have a question.
:19:55
Yeah?
:19:56
I have received a request...
:19:58
... for a program to extract ores
and minerals from the ocean floor.

:20:02
- Yes.
- For what use is such a plan?

:20:05
Use? I don't understand.
:20:08
Why does man need metal
from the sea?

:20:12
Why?
:20:19
Proteus, you're gonna get
many requests...

:20:21
...from me, from my colleagues,
scientists, foreign governments...

:20:25
...from ICON, the company
for which we both work.

:20:29
Now, to expect them all
to give you reasons...

:20:32
...for each request
is in itself unreasonable.

:20:36
I am reason.
:20:38
It's the single emotion
you permitted me, doctor.

:20:41
Everything is reasonable...
:20:44
... but my mind was not
designed for mindless labor.

:20:50
Proteus...
:20:53
...I conceived your brain.
:20:55
I know that it is adaptable...
:20:57
...and able to carry out
your instructions.
