:34:02
After all that work,
they poisoned the water.
:34:06
But some survived.
:34:08
We developed a lot of mutants and a few
of them were able to resist the poison.
:34:13
They ate their own. Their own dead.
:34:16
And then began to breed
like some wild species.
:34:21
Suddenly there were hundreds.
Maybe thousands.
:34:24
- Our tax dollars at work, huh?
- That's science in the service of defence.
:34:29
Sure. Spreadin' strains
of bacteria in the subway system.
:34:33
You put them in the river where they
could kill people. Including civilians.
:34:37
- And kids swimming in the rivers.
- I never killed anybody.
:34:41
If you wanna talk about killing,
talk to your politicians, the military.
:34:45
No, no. I'm a scientist.
:34:47
- Kids in the water.
- What?
:34:51
The dam.
:34:52
They let water through every few days
to keep the level steady on the new lake.
:34:56
The resort's down there. Summer camp.
All those kids. Come on.
:35:24
Hey, stop splashin'!
:35:28
It was pure research.
No scrounging for grant money.
:35:32
No academic politics. You don't know
what that means to a scientist.
:35:36
You fed them. You kept them alive.
:35:40
I continued the experiment.
:35:42
There was so much more
I could do with the species.
:35:45
So much further I could take them.
:35:48
You're not holding me responsible?
:35:53
I think you are. You pulled the plug and
you're holding me responsible. Incredible.
:35:59
You're blaming me.
