"It could be fatal." "What then?" "You read Streetcar." "play along." "He needs medicine." "physical beauty is passing." "A transitory possession." "Beauty of the mind and spirit and tenderness of the heart" "And I have all those things." "Aren`t taken away." "But-- But grow." "Increase with the years." "Strange that I should be called destitute when I have all these riches locked in my heart." "I been onto you from the start." "I seen how you sprinkle this place up with them powders and fancy French colognes." "well, I say, ha!" "You hear me?" "Ha!" "Ha!" "I think" " Yeah." "Why, you`re not the gentleman that I was expecting." "What`s going on?" "Whoever you are I`ve always depended on the kindness of strangers." "How you feeling, miles?" "Oh, you look beautiful." "You were screaming out names." "I was having sexual nightmares." "Who are the AP gypsies?" "You look different." "I am different." "I`ve spent six months living like an animal." "really?" "That`s right." "AII of us live on our cunning and our instinct." "We`re all a pack of wild animals." "Lunch." "while you were a pawn of capitalism..." "..." "Erno`s been teaching KarI Marx." "Who?" "Erno." "You must meet him." "He`s wonderful." "Soon he`II lead a revolt and start a Marxist regime ruled by the workers and the masses." "You remind me of Lisa Sorenson." "Who?" "An old girlfriend." "A Trotskyite Jesus freak who sold pornographic connect-the-dots books." "I have a song about the revolution." "It won`t happen unless we stop the Aires." "Don`t worry about it." "Just relax." "Listen." "Rebels are we" "Born to be free" "Just like the fish in the sea" "I`m sorry." "I didn`t know you were kissing." "miles, I was telling Erno about Aires Day." "He has a plan." "You tell him, Erno." "Right, darling." "This is a radio." "What, darling?" "This is a phony thumbprint." "It`ll allow her to pass the security device." "We`ll get gowns and pose as doctors." "And that`s how we`ll get inside." "Okay, try not to appear nervous." "smile." "Peasants." "You`re shaking like a leaf." "How should I shake?" "It`II be fine." "Why are you shaking?" "Because you`re making me nervous." "Don`t blame me." "hello." "will you get a grip on yourself?" "You`d feel safer with Mr. White Teeth." "Who?" "The rebel with the muscular chest." "Erno?" "A great name if you`re the star of a vampire movie." "He`s smart." "Yeah, he didn`t come." "He had handsome lessons." "jealous?" "jealous?" "With a body like mine?" "You want me to choose one man?" "My love is for all BoIsheviks." "Do what you want." "You`re over 21 ." "Tramp." "We`re here on business." "I created a bohemian monster." "Next, she`II want robots." "will you shut up?" "She becomes a pseudo-inteIIectuaI..." "...fascist, Freudian monster." "Look, don`t get crazy." "Let`s do our parts." "failure will be your fault." ""It`II be your fault."" "You`re retarded." "A retarded man." "Get your part right." "Get your part right." "What am I doing?" "I`m 237." "I should be collecting social security." "Look, do you remember?" "Forward." "control." "manual." "Overheat." "Rewind." "I know this." "I want to make sure." "I`m going out a window." "It`s a Iong drop." "I`d bruise my smock." "AII right, don`t worry." "I got it." "This is the manual." "No, that`s rewind." "Then this is manual." "That`s dual control." "You said you had it." "I do." "I have it." "I have it." "Do you love Erno?" "Oh, miles I don`t know." "AII right, the coast is clear." "Start lowering me." "This is manual." "No, that`s fast forward!" "Oh!" "Oh, miles." "Oh!" "Look, I-- I got some of the tape around." "And I thought you didn`t know how." "Erno said to go north." "I`m in charge." "Go my way." "He knows what he`s talking about." "He`s handsome, so he knows everything?" "He has capped teeth." "Did you know?" "He has capped gums." "He`s a mathematician." "Yeah, but can he do this?" "You`re an idiot." "We`re going my way." "Fine." "Dr. Temkin!" "The meeting is this way." "Doctor." "We`re doctors, not impostors." "Dr." "Temkin, can we go?" "Big doctor." "Eye, ear, nose and throat." "May we?" "May we, doctor, please?" "Nice work." "They think we`re someone else." "I know." "If we`d followed Erno, we`d be okay." "Let`s not talk about it." "It`s the only thing that makes me stutter." "I`m tired of hearing about him." "No more." "Shut up, shut up!" "AII right." "None of you have met before, for reasons of security." "But now, Aires Day is here." "I realize what I`ll say will be shocking." "But I`m counting on you to respond appropriately." "Ten months ago, our leader was hurt when a bomb, planted by the underground, exploded." "It was kept quiet." "Since then, we have been virtually leaderless." "Preparations for a successor were not adequately clear." "We have been in the throes of a major crisis." "As for our leader  the Emergency Department rushed to the accident immediately." "But all that remained of him was this." "This is our leader`s nose." "Using great presence of mind we rushed it to our Delta laboratory, which is here." "Through massive biochemical effort it has been kept alive for a year." "Our dream has been that by cloning we would reduplicate the entire leader again." "For those of you unfamiliar with biology it`s a process by which using a single cell a duplicate of someone could be formed." "Until now we`ve only had limited experimental success." "All efforts have been directed to cloning lately." "We feel that we can reproduce our leader in perfect tact from his nose." "Gentlemen, with God`s help, in a couple of hours we`ll have our leader." "Then we`ll coordinate phase two which will terminate all dissidents on signal from our reborn leader." "It`s a nose." "I was here." "What will we do?" "Radio Erno." "We must strike." "The Ieader`s handicapped." "He has no body." "We`re not prepared." "No, but it`s chaos." "We`II win." "Give me the radio." "I dropped it." "It fell out of my pocket." "Stop repeating me." "Stop repeating." "Get a grip." "We must stop them." "We have to steal it." "How?" "I`ve never stolen an organ before." "Wait!" "I got an idea." "Yeah?" "It`s in the operating chamber." "We go below, get in the ceiling slide through, come up, and hide it under my coat." "Stupid plan." "Why?" "Because it`s too subtle." "We`re doctors." "We go in..." "...make a diversion and run." "Great!" "I`m scared." "calm down." "You took some skin there." "Here." "What`s that?" "A lighter?" "You gave it to me at MeIik`s." "Where`s it been?" "Don`t tell me." "The trick is to remain cool." "Those are my nails." "You`re tense." "The nose, I heard it was running." "Dr. Temkin, we`re ready here." "You don`t mind if people who aren`t involved in genetics observe?" "No." "I Iike to be watched when I clone." "The more, the merrier." "I never clone alone." "Hello, Dr. Temkin." "So nice to see you." "I`m Biocentral computer 21 00, series G." "I`ll assist you through the process." "We`re all aware of your reputation." "We look forward to a successful cloning procedure." "My assistant, Dr. Spock." "Janus." "Janus." "Spock." "Spanish." "Spanish." "Let`s see the patient." "Wow." "It`s in worse shape than I thought." "Better lay off Armenian women." "You can see the medical history on readout four." "I believe this will be a very difficult croning job." "Yes." "cloning, you idiot." "cloning!" "We`re ready to proceed." "After looking at it I feel we ought to postpone the cloning." "Doctor, that would be a tragic mistake." "The computer didn`t account for the Pinocchio factor." "The square of the proboscis is equal to the sinuses over seven." "What is your opinion?" "Do we proceed with cloning or postpone?" "Ah, indeed." "One moment." "A moment." "A medical moment." "Yes." "WeII" "I think we should go ahead." "Excuse me." "I have to have a conference." "If you`II come over here." "I want to talk." "What do you mean, "go ahead"?" "What can we do?" "I don`t know how to clone." "You`re crazy!" "Proceed." "Stop it!" "You stop it." "Get a grip." "I`m glad you put it to me that way." "Now, if you`II let me have the lobster fork." "What you have-- I diagnosed the situation." "We`ve got a nose." "I think we`re in agreeance." "I have it here." "And what you want, basically is a person connected to that nose or you get your money back." "Want me to leave room for a mustache?" "There`s a nice area there which will...." "What?" "We`re placing down the garments because we`re going to clone." "We`re going to try to clone the patient directly into his suit." "He`II be completely dressed at the end." "It`s a first, and then we`II get out." "We don`t have to stay while he suits up." "Time to check the cell structure." "Checking the cell structure." "Checking the cell structure!" "Ah, checking the cell structure." "The structured cells to be checked." "Checking the cell structure." "Checking the structure." "The cell structure." "The cell structure has been checked." "I thank you so much." "And now I`II just take my mask, if you don`t mind and I`II strap it onto my face." "Excuse me while I give the patient a quick nostriIectomy." "This is it." "Keep your fingers crossed." "Something`s wrong." "There`s a current break in  the life-support system." "What we should do" "What`s that under your mask?" "Pardon me?" "Under my mask?" "Nothing." "Why?" "Does it look excessively buIbous?" "He`s got the nose." "Under his mask!" "He`s got the nose." "Quick!" "quickly!" "Nobody move or I shoot your president." "Come on, we`re getting out of here." "Don`t come near me, or he gets it between the eyes." "He`II do it." "I`ve seen him shoot a nose." "please." "please be careful." "You don`t realize that you`ve been dealing with a great mind." "Yeah, and his isn`t so bad either." "Don`t come near us." "Get out of here now." "He`s bluffing." "He wouIdn`t shoot it." "BIuffing, am I?" "Okay, clowns, you asked for it." "I can`t believe we did it." "An eye for an eye and a nose for a nose." "That sounds brilliant." "You were absolutely wonderful." "Erno`s plan worked." "Erno`s plan?" "What was I through all of that?" "You?" "It was Erno`s plan?" "I can`t get into a discussion about Erno." "I`m getting a hostility ache." "A migraine headache now." "I haven`t seen my analyst in 200 years." "He was a strict Freudian." "If I`d gone all this time, I`d be cured." "Erno`s going to head the new government." "Don`t you understand?" "In six months, we`II be stealing Erno`s nose." "political solutions don`t work." "It doesn`t matter who`s there." "They`re all terrible." "Why are you looking at me like that?" "I think you really love me." "Of course I Iove you." "This is what this is all about." "And you love me." "I don`t blame you." "You know?" "I`m not knocking Erno." "He`s great if you Iike a tall, blond Prussian, Nordic, Aryan, Nazi type." "But meaningful relationships don`t last." "That was proven by science." "There`s a chemical in our bodies that makes us get on each other`s nerves." "I don`t believe in science." "Science is an intellectual dead end." "It`s a Iot of guys in suits cutting up frogs on foundation grants." "You don`t believe in science or that political systems work..." "...and you don`t believe in God." "Right." "So then, what do you believe in?" "Sex and death." "Two things that come once in my lifetime." "But at Ieast after death, you`re not nauseous."
