It's not that simple, Hoke. MAN: Chevalier, good to see you. It's... Ah, Barbara, good to see you and the illustrious Dr. Oppenheimer. I'm Eltenton. - ROBERT: Oh, pleasure. - Please, please. Now, might you say a word about organized labor on campuses, yes? Coming through! Coming through! - (chanting): F.A.E.C.T.! - I work at Shell. We've signed up chemists, we've signed up engineers, so why not scientists in academia? (chanting): Oppie! Oppie! Oppie! Oppie! Oppie! Oppie! Oppie! Oppie! Oppie! - Oppie! Oppie! Oppie! - (cheers and applause)

Robert. I want you to meet Chevalier. Dr. Haakon Chevalier, Dr. Robert Oppenheimer. - Pleasure. - Pleasure. This is my little brother, Frank. - And this is... - Hello. - Still Jackie. - Hello, Still Jackie. Chevalier, you're in languages? And your reputation precedes you. - What have you heard? - MARY: Excuse me. That you're teaching a radical new approach to physics I have no chance of understanding, but I hadn't heard you're a Party member. - Uh, I'm not. - Oh, not yet. Frank and I are thinking of joining. Just the other day, - I was saying... - I support a range of causes. CHEVALIER: The Spanish Civil War? A democratic republic being overthrown by fascist thugs, who wouldn't? Our government. They think that socialism is a bigger threat than fascism. ROBERT: Not for long. Look at what the Nazis are doing to the Jews. I send funds to colleagues in Germany to emigrate. I have to do something. (sighs) My own work is so abstract. What are you working on? What happens to the stars when they die. Do stars die? Well, if they do, they'd cool, then collapse. In fact, the bigger the star, - the more violent its demise. - (explosions) The gravity gets so concentrated it swallows everything. Everything, even light. Can that really happen? The math says it can. If we can get published, then perhaps one day, an astronomer finds one. But right now, all I have is theory, which can't impact people's lives. Well, if you're going to send money to Spain, do it through the Communist Party. They can get it to the front lines. Mary sent me with these.

SERBER: Donald, would you like to contribute here? Please, help me out. HORNIG: You're on your own, pal. Bob, I'm not quitting my job because plutonium is radioactive. We just don't know what it might do to the female reproductive system... Your reproductive system is more exposed than mine, presumably. Can we please? The implosion device is nowhere. Hey, you can't rush everything. - Oppie, please. - Well, there's rushing and there's getting on with it, so pick one. Wait. Neddermeyer's doing his job. Teller's not helping. You're not helping. I've been asking for calculations on the implosion lenses for weeks. The British can do it. Fuchs. Absolutely. It's your job, Teller. I'm engaged in research. On a hydrogen bomb we're not even building. (others laughing)

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.
