"This type of biological engineering is expressly forbidden under the UN germ warfare pact." "If they could fool Talos into believing that the origin of this material was, in fact, from outer space, they could fool anyone and avoid..." "Avoid indictment for violation of the pact." "Exactly."

"I'm sure whatever Dr. Viallini is using to black... was using to blackmail Elliot is in that little folder of yours." "That will be enough, Doctor." "It is not enough, damn it." "You've had it in for Michael ever since the ICV incident." " Dr. Kane..." " You've been waiting... for an opportunity like this to get rid of Michael so that he couldn't..." "he's been looking for an excuse... a few months back, Michael Foster developed a retro-clonal virus... a virus with the ability to seek out specific chromosomes within certain organ cells." "This virus could have been used to hunt down and destroy malignantly mutated genes." "Ultimately, it might one day have rid mankind of most inheritable diseases." "Dr. Viallini had other plans." "Son of a bitch!" "You had no right to call the Defense Department in on this one." "This is my project." "It's my work, my responsibility." "You are an employee of the Talos Corporation." "Any materials you develop, any research you undertake is funded by this corporation." "Hence, it is owned solely by this corporation." "It is the board of trustees who determine when, where and to whom we offer the results of our research." "Not some pig-headed Ph.D. With delusions of..." " You incredible bastard!" " Michael." "We are not discussing some secret recipe here." "We are talking about a search-and-destroy virus that could be perverted and manipulated to wipe out selected populations of the human race!" " I will not be responsible!" " You're not that naive, Doctor, nor that innocent." "You've taken a willing part in many projects whose objectives were less than altruistic." "This is no different." "I'm not going to let you get away with this." "I'll destroy all the data, all the samples." "Do not make irrational threats you'll be sorry for." "This is no threat." "I'll blow the whistle on you and your little mutant freak show downstairs." "I'm sure the National Genetic Council would have a field day in this place." "Subpoenas will be flying around here like a ticker-tape parade." "You are just as much responsible." "You'll be cutting your own throat." "I may go down, Doctor, but I swear to Christ, I'll drag you with me." "You wouldn't." "You want to play hardball?" "You just try me." "Michael." "Michael!" "He's a very stupid man." "I suggest you speak with him, set him straight, before I'm forced to take more drastic measures." "You're wasting valuable time, Doctor." "Mr. Jarrett and Mr. Mitchell are not interested in your accusations or your fantasies." "They work for me." "If any harm comes to Michael Foster," "I will see to it personally that the NGC strings you up by the balls." "Mr. Mitchell and Mr. Jarrett are waiting." "Please continue." "Within hours, Michael's entire body had been infected." "(groaning)" "Elliot set up the lab facilities for treating Michael, but the mutations were too rapid, and research led only to dead ends." "As the days passed," "Michael changed even more, as if his entire cellular structure was being rearranged... redefined by the alien tissue." "Nancy, come here." "I'll need your help." "Hold that open while I get a sample." "(screeches)" "What the hell was that?" "(screeching)" "Elliot!" "Are you trying to give me a heart attack?" "Stand back." "Come here, you little son of a..." "(screeching)" "What in God's name is that... thing?" "I don't know, but I'm not taking its temperature." "Look at this thing." "Jesus Christ!" "Freakin' thing's pissing on me." "Elliot's theory was not quite accurate." "These small masses of flesh contained a caustic venom, ejected through a hollow quill in its mouth, I suppose." "But like a bumblebee, once the stinger has spent its venom, the mass dies and virtually decomposes within minutes." "It is not a pleasant sight." "(intercom buzzes)" "Yes?" "Who?" "I see." "Give me a moment and then send her in." "Wait outside for a moment." "It appears that Officer Griffen's daughter is here asking questions." "She hasn't seen her father all day and she's..." "Ah, Miss Griffen." "Come in." "I'd like you to meet Dr. Nancy Kane." " Doctor, this is Stephanie." " Sherry." "Hello, how do you do?" "Your father has talked about you quite often, Sherry." "I understand you are a very smart young lady." "You're studying computers, is it?" "Micro-circuit design and engineering." "Very impressive." "Very impressive, indeed." "When you graduate I hope you come see me." "I'm sure we can find a spot here at Talos for somebody with your talents." "Thank you, sir." "I'd like to ask you about my father." "Ah, yes?" "A fine man!" "One of our most trusted and loyal employees." "Dr. Viallini... my father's been gone since last night." "I haven't seen or heard from him since." "I'm very worried." "It's not like him." "I see." "Well, according to our log... your father didn't work here last night." "Wait." "You mean he wasn't here?" "No, it says here he called in sick." "Yes." "That's confirmed." "Another security guard is listed on his shift." "This is very strange." "It's not like him to leave Kim and me without calling." "I wouldn't worry." "I'm sure there's some explanation." "I'll keep my ears open." "And if he doesn't show up soon," "I'll personally see to it that my people find out where he is." "Thank you so much for stopping by." "Feel free to stop by anytime you have a problem we can help you with." "We may have trouble with her." "The question is, where could it be hiding?" "Where would it be hiding?" "I would appreciate it if you would stop saying "it."" "That is still Michael Foster, no matter what he's turned into." "I'm sorry, Doctor, I forgot how close you two were." "Well, when I saw him last he looked pretty slimy." "He'd begun to resemble some sort of garden bug or slug, or leach." "(groaning)" "(groaning continues)" "Dr. Stein!" "Thank you, very much, Doctors." "Now would either one of you care to retrieve my probe, or shall I just take a reimbursement out of petty cash?" "Elliot!" "This is no time for levity." "(screaming)" "Ta-da!" "For my next trick..." "By this time, even his internal physiology had transformed." "His blood became highly caustic, his heart enlarged by nearly twice its original size, and he was becoming less and less responsive to the medications." "Finally, after four weeks of dead ends," "Elliot made a major breakthrough." "Computer:" "Nucleic IVM:" "One part per billion." "Cellular engraination reaching MD T threshold." "(groaning)" "Temperature:" "58° Celsius." "Michael." "(screaming)" "Elliot!" "Elliot!" "Michael!" "Computer:" "Microbiotic enzyme distention at 47%." "I think we've got it." "RNA factor:" "0.936 IMP." "Take a look." "A few minutes ago that sample was completely infected by the alien cells." "But this shows no sign of infection." " Thank you very much." " Elliot, you're wonderful!" "Yes, I know." "How did you do it?" "Elementary, my dear." "I'd been noticing strange molecular behavior whenever I exposed samples through the electron microscope." "The reaction to negative pulse phasing caused rampant destabilization of the molecular bonding, but only at specific wavelengths." "As it turns out, cellular and biological activity is halted for a period of time when electricity is introduced." "I can't be that simple." "You've received total remission." "When his heart stopped, we gave him electro-shock resuscitation..." "it did nothing." "You're talking about normal AC current." "You got two problems there." "One, there's no way to control or focus it at specific enough wavelengths." "Secondly, the amount of energy required to stop and reverse Michael's metamorphosis would fry him." "Well?" "Well, what?" "Well, how did you manage it?" " Wow!" " Elliot!" "I, uh..." "I borrowed this little machine from the boys down in particle acceleration." " An atom smasher?" " That's right." "But it's not atom smashing I'm interested in." "You see, the particles are accelerated through a series of electromagnets." "As they travel and build up speed around its curved course, electrons fly off, sort of like tires screeching when you take a turn very fast." "But these electrons can be focused and manipulated to any wavelength." "So, I can control the output." "And this way we can reverse the process and still keep Michael alive." "That's what I'm hoping for, yeah." "Well what are we waiting for?" "Come on, let's give it a try." "Nancy, hold on." "Calm down." "I still need to do a few more tests." "Besides, this machine isn't nearly powerful enough to do the job." "We can use Agnes." "My thinking exactly." "A cyclotron the size of Agnes will put out 10 times the power we need." "We'll have to construct a terminal in a room nearby the accelerator tunnel." "Let's schedule the first test next week sometime." "If we can keep Michael alive until then..." "I'll talk to Viallini right away." "Tell me exactly what's required, and I'll have him take care of it." "The particles are accelerated..." "Within a week the terminal was constructed." "We called it the atomic shotgun." "Let me see that." "Agnes, this cyclotron, it's never been tested?" "Construction has only just been completed." "We expect a full-power test firing tonight in... less than six hours, as a matter of fact." "And the engineers, they have no knowledge of this shotgun's purpose?" "Only the four of us in this room." "Go on, Doctor." "Michael's transformation continued while we conducted more tests preparing for tonight... unfortunately." "Computer:" "Bio-scan of frequency shutdown." "All systems at standby."

"He was lying to me." "He told me my father never even showed up for work last night, that he called in sick." "All right, all right, so maybe your father did call in sick." "Maybe he had other plans, personal plans that Viallini wouldn't let him off work for." "He would have told me." "He would never leave Kim and me this long without calling." "Maybe he did call."
