I am not here to help, Robert. I knew you could do this without me. Then why did you come? BOHR: To talk about after. The power you're about to reveal will forever outlive the Nazis. And the world is not prepared. "You could lift the stone without being ready for the snake that's revealed." We have to make the politicians understand, this isn't a new weapon. It's a new world. I'll be out there doing what I can, but you... you're an American Prometheus. The man who gave them the power to destroy themselves, and they'll respect that. And your work really begins.

Just tell me your concerns, and I'll relay them. My concerns? Germany's defeated. Japan's not going to hold out alone. How could you know that? You got us into this. You and Einstein with your letter to Roosevelt - saying we could build a bomb. - (scoffs) Against Germany. That's not how weapons manufacture works, Szilard. SZILARD: Oppie, you have to help. ROBERT: Fermi's in the meeting. - Lawrence is in the meeting. - They're not you. You're the great salesman of science. You can convince anyone of anything.

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)

BOHR: The British pilots put me in the bomb bay. Showed me the-the oxygen, you know, - but I messed it up. - (crowd laughs) Uh, when they opened me up in Scotland, I was unconscious. But I pretended I'd been napping. (crowd laughing) Please enjoy your party. (light applause) (whispering): Is it big enough? To end the war? To end all war.

ROBB: So the Super was under development on your watch at Los Alamos? Yes. ROBB: And yet, after the war, you tried to deny it was viable. No, no, no. I... I pointed out technical difficulties with it. You... Didn't you try to kill it at the AEC meeting - after the Russian bomb test? - No. ROBB: But that was the recommendation of the AEC, - was it not? - After hours of discussion about the best response. An H-bomb is 1,000 times the power of an A-bomb.
