What the hell were you doing in Chicago? Visiting the Met? - Why? Why? - Well, you can't talk to... Because we have every right... You have just the rights that I give you. No more, no less. We are adults trying to run a project here. This is ridiculous. Tell him. Compartmentalization is the protocol we agreed to.

- FERMI: Oppie. - Dr. Fermi. (greets in Italian) I hear you got a little town. Yes. Come and see. (Szilard scoffs) Who could think straight in a place like that? Huh? Everybody will go crazy. Thank you for the vote of confidence, Szilard. Do we really... do we really need that in the notes? When are you going to try it out? We did. The first self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction. Didn't Groves tell you? No. (crackling) (Robert exhales) GUARD: One at a time, please, one at a time. Dr. Oppenheimer?

LLOYD GARRISON: General Groves, were you aware of Dr. Oppenheimer's left-wing associations when you appointed him? GROVES: I was aware that there were suspicions about him. I was aware he had a very extreme liberal background. In your opinion, would he ever consciously commit a disloyal act? I would be amazed if he did. GARRISON: So you had complete confidence in his integrity. At Los Alamos, yes, which is where I really knew him. General, did your security officers on the project advise you against the clearance of Dr. Oppenheimer? They could not and would not clear him until I insisted. And it's safe to say that you had a pretty good knowledge of Dr. Oppenheimer's security file. GROVES: I did. Well, then there's only really one question I need answered here today. In light of the current AEC guidelines, would you clear Dr. Oppenheimer today? Do you have the guidelines? ROBB: Under current AEC guidelines, would you clear Dr. Oppenheimer today? - (birds chirping) - (rooster crowing)

So you could control me. Well, I'm not that subtle. I'm just a humble soldier. You're neither humble nor just a soldier. You studied engineering at MIT. Guilty as charged. Well, now we understand each other, perhaps you can get me my security clearance so I can perform this miracle for you.

LAWRENCE: Greetings from Berkeley. I am here to update you on our progress and solicit your input. To do so, I am going to have to share a few things that General Groves told me not to. Sorry, General, I said I understood, not that I agreed. - (laughter) - 'Kay. Gentlemen, to business. There were rumors of espionage at Los Alamos. ROBERT: Unsubstantiated. Unsubstantiated. STRAUSS: I'm told that there were Communists on the project. We didn't knowingly employ any Communists. I just want to know, were any of them involved in discussions of the Super? I seem to remember you demanding your brother come to Los Alamos. My brother had left the Party by then. What about Lomanitz? Lomanitz was never employed at Los Alamos. He was a liaison. Our security was tight, as former Colonel Nichols well knows. Our security was as tight as it could be given the personalities involved, but attempts were made. What is that supposed to mean? We've all read his file here.

You are aware that the Nazis have a two-year head start. Dr. Oppenheimer, the fact that your security clearance is proving difficult to obtain is not my fault. It's yours. May not be your fault, but it's your problem. Because I'm going. STRAUSS: And how many people were in these, uh, - open discussions? - NICHOLS: Too many. Compartmentalization was supposed to be the protocol. We were in a race against the Nazis. And now the race is against the Soviets. - Not unless we start it. - STRAUSS: Robert. They just fired a starting gun. What's the nature of the device they detonated? ROBERT: The data indicates it may have been a plutonium implosion device. Like the one you built at Los Alamos. The Russians have a bomb, Truman needs to know what's next. What's next? Arms talks. - Arms talks. - Obviously.

What about the Super? Does Truman even know about it? Did we brief him on that? Not specifically. ROBERT: We still don't know if a hydrogen bomb's technically feasible. Right, my understanding is that Teller proposed it? - ROBERT: Yes. - At Los Alamos? Teller's designs have always been wildly impractical. You'd have to deliver by ox cart. - Not airplane. - LAWRENCE: Oppie. I'm sorry, Dr. Lawrence, you want to comment?
