I won't work for that man. (others exclaim) Let him go. He's a prima donna. SERBER: I agree. He should leave Los Alamos. Okay. Kisty, you replace Neddermeyer. Seth, I'm putting you on plutonium. Lilli, you go work for Kisty. Because he needs you. Fuchs, you take Teller's role. I'm putting you exclusively on the implosion device. And no one is leaving Los Alamos. (rousing music playing)

D.C. - RABI: That's fair. It's a weapon of attack with no defensive value. - Deterrence. - BUSH: "Deterrence"? Do we really need more deterrence than our current arsenal of atomic bombs? Y-You drown in ten feet of water or-or 10,000, - what's the difference? - (rhythmic stomping) We can already drown Russia. They know it. - And now they can drown us. - So we're just escalating... (stomping intensifying) (discussion continues indistinctly)
