We're a couple of New York Jews. How do you know Dutch? Well, I thought I'd better learn it when I got here this semester. You learned enough Dutch in six weeks to give a lecture on quantum mechanics? Wanted to challenge myself. Quantum physics wasn't challenging enough. - Schvitzer. - Schvitzer? - Show-off. - (chuckles) Dutch in six weeks, but you never learned Yiddish? They don't speak it so much my side of the park. Screw you. You homesick? Oh, you know it.

I was just kidding. (chuckles) - No, he hates me, not America. - You know, General, not everyone has levers to pull like mine. I don't think I understand. You didn't hire me despite my left-wing past. You hired me because of it.

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.

Seriously, keep it out of the lab. Well, out of the lab, my landlady is having a discussion group tonight. Interested? I have sampled the Berkeley political scene. It's all just philosophy post-grads and Communists talking integration. You don't care about integration. I want to vote for it, not talk about it. 'Specially on a Friday. Come on, let's eat. (sighs) I'm meeting my brother there. SENATOR BARTLETT: And how would these activities have come to the attention of the FBI? Well, if I remember correctly, the FBI was taking license plates outside suspected Communist gatherings, and his name popped up.

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.

I'm told he's there most afternoons. You know, I've always wondered why you didn't involve him in the Manhattan Project. Greatest scientific mind of our time. Of his time. Einstein published his Theory of Relativity more than 40 years ago now.

(smacks lips) VOLPE: As AEC Counsel, I can't represent you. I'll call Lloyd Garrison. Oh, he's good. The best, but I have to warn you... this won't be a fair fight. - (suspenseful music plays) - ROBB: During your interview with Boris Pash in 1943, did you refer to microfilm? - No. - Tab 11, page one, paragraph three. You never said, "Man at the consulate expert in the use of microfilm"? - I'm sorry, I'm sorry. - No. I would like to know what document Mr. Robb is quoting from and if we might be furnished with a copy. The document is classified, Mr. Garrison. I think we should get back to first-hand information. This is first-hand. How so, Roger?
