I thought there wasn't a person alive
0:15
who could best the matriarch Ursopod.
0:18
Yet
0:22
here you are. What a show.
0:25
You the doctor in charge here? Indeed I
0:28
am, soldier, and mine. What a picture
0:32
you are. What exquisite graft work.
0:35
Might I trouble you for an examination?
0:38
I
0:39
So you're the one who butchered my
0:40
friend Ortiz. The one who tortured those
0:43
creatures out there who killed that
0:46
soldier.
0:48
What's going on? I don't know any Ortiz.
0:51
I swear it. I'm just a doctor. Please
0:54
don't shoot.
1:06
I beg your pardon. I trained at the most
1:09
prestigious technical college under the
1:11
purview of Auntie. Do you want to die?
1:14
All right, I'll talk. I did operate on
1:16
one trooper Ortiz along with two others.
1:19
He eagerly offered himself up for this
1:22
project's first human trials. Rather
1:24
hasty in hindsight. I know what you're
1:26
thinking. Yes, the grafting program was
1:29
officially
1:32
shuttered 6 months ago. That was not a
1:34
lie. But I thought it a shame and it
1:37
seems I wasn't alone in that. I was
1:40
recruited for this unofficial venture
1:43
soon after. Don't understand the need
1:45
for secrecy myself, but our sponsor
1:48
demanded it. I dared not ask too many
1:51
questions.
1:54
He's some manner of executive. I don't
1:57
know his name or official title. I swear
2:00
my orders came down the long, long chain
2:02
of command. I'm only doing what I was
2:05
told. Enough with the excuses.
2:09
You absolute wretch. Any scientist with
2:13
any shred of decency would have refused
2:16
your position. Your precious data is
2:20
nothing compared to those you killed.
2:23
I sympathize with your friend, soldier.
2:25
Truly, I do. But if I mourned every
2:28
failure within these walls, I might
2:29
never operate again. You must understand
2:32
that the work we do here is greater than
2:34
any one life. We can change the galaxy
2:37
for the better.
2:46
Enough with the threats of violence.
2:48
Listen here. If you choose to to
2:51
brutalize me, all of my research and
2:53
knowledge will be gone forever. The
2:56
suffering you've seen here will be
2:58
nothing in comparison to the suffering I
3:00
could prevent. Do you truly want to be
3:03
the one to stand in the way of progress?
3:15
There is no research for you to take. I
3:18
purposely did not keep meticulous
3:20
records. You know how it is in a
3:22
competitive industry. I cannot risk
3:24
someone else taking credit for my work.
3:26
It's been a long time coming. But I
3:28
believe I've laid the groundwork for
3:30
treating injury and illness far better
3:33
than modern medicine can manage. You
3:36
see, I'm only here because I conceived
3:38
of a device to keep my lungs
3:40
operational. Without it, I'd be laying
3:42
repose in an iron lung. This is just the
3:46
start of what we may build. We are on
3:49
the precipice of regrowing limbs that
3:51
had been lost in accidents. Reversing
3:54
brain trauma, nerve damage, maybe aging
3:57
one day. It would be a boon to humanity
4:01
and a boon to Auntie's bottom line.
4:10
Don't even start, Commander. I ain't
4:12
keen on anything this man sells. Let's
4:14
let's not be hasty. I see your graft is
4:17
a result of revision surgery. Your first
4:20
go was botched and you were considered a
4:23
failure of the program. Yes, I know what
4:25
happened to those failures. Demoted,
4:28
disgraced. It was horrible business. And
4:30
yet you still wear our colors. You want
4:34
to reclaim your station, don't you?
4:36
I You don't know anything about what I
4:38
want.
4:53
You've not even heard my offer. Were you
4:56
a true friend or associate or whichever,
4:59
you'd let her decide for herself.
5:01
Whether I want to regain my position or
5:03
not doesn't matter.
5:06
I don't want your help. I will not
5:09
benefit from the pain of others. You
5:11
think there were no victims of the first
5:12
program? That your existence isn't built
5:15
off the bones of those who came before?
5:18
You're no more righteous than I. You
5:20
simply looked away. Now, if you stay
5:24
your hand, I will grant you two
5:26
stateofthe-art grafting parts. They
5:29
cannot fail. Install one of them and
5:32
you'll see my earnest intent. You were
5:35
never the broken thing they made you,
5:37
soldier. If you wish it, you may still
5:40
become a most extraordinary specimen.
5:44
No. No. Stop talking. Stay there. Don't
5:49
make any stupid moves. Understand? The
5:52
adults need to have a talk over here,
5:54
commander. I don't know what to do. I
5:56
came here intending to make him pay for
5:59
what he's done. And I can't check the
6:01
reasons I've seen to burn this place to
6:03
the ground. But what if he's right?
6:07
What if something in his work is worth
6:09
saving?
6:11
What if this is my chance to make
6:12
something of my life,
6:15
to be accepted again?
6:39
Aren't you already, Commander?
6:42
You know, it's telling that when a
6:44
choice is to be made, you're more keen
6:46
to vacasillate or wash your hands of it
6:48
entirely. Maybe that was uncharitable.
6:52
You've done a good deal for me in our
6:53
time together.
6:55
But we got a big decision to make now.
6:58
Please work with me. Now, I ain't
7:01
condoning what happened here. I won't
7:03
disrespect Ortiz or the other victims as
7:06
such.
7:08
But if we continue this research,
7:12
know that it cannot must not be like
7:16
this. We can trust Doc Tinsley to set
7:18
things right. One can only know goodness
7:20
if they're led by example.
7:23
But if this doctor doesn't take
7:25
direction, we'd only be repeating the
7:27
cycle. We would be complicit.
7:54
Yes, I know too much is riding on
7:57
conditions, but that doesn't mean I
7:59
can't try. For every person helped, it
8:03
could make this all worth it. It's your
8:05
lucky day. You'll live. Pack up your
8:07
things and head straight to Fairfield to
8:09
Doc Tinsley. You want to continue your
8:11
work? You'll follow her lead.
8:14
Thank you, soldier. Thank you. I won't
8:16
forget this. I swear. I'll unlock the
8:18
cases for you now as promised. Take the
8:21
graphs you like and uh let me know how
8:23
they work out, won't you?
8:24
Make no mistake. I ain't doing this for
8:26
my own gain. If you say you can help
8:29
other folk, you best deliver on that
8:31
promise. Let's get out of here before I
8:34
change my mind.
