But none of that stopped Robert from pushing the GAC to recommend arms control instead of the H-bomb.

What is it you said? "This is just how the game is played." Well, forgive my naivete. Amateurs seek the sun. Get eaten. Power stays in the shadows. But, sir, you're... you're out of the shadows now. Yeah, that's why this has to work. Well... Teller's testifying this morning. That'll help. And then... Hill is in the afternoon. Hill is gonna help us too.

You write up an indictment and tell Oppenheimer his security clearance is not being renewed. But offer him the chance to appeal. As you can see, Robert, it's not yet signed. ROBERT: May I keep this? No. If you do decide to appeal, they'll have to send you a copy. When he appeals... and trust me, he will... - I appoint a board. - (indistinct conversation) They will, of course, have counsel. - NICHOLS: Prosecutor? - In all but name. - NICHOLS: Who? - Roger Robb. Ouch. Robb will have security clearance to examine Oppenheimer's file. As will the Gray board. Defense counsel will not.

A closed hearing. ROBERT: The so-called derogatory information in your indictment of me. No audience. No reporters. - No burden of proof. - No burden of proof?

(scoffs) ROBERT: He may not be wrong. Stimson is now telling me we bombed an enemy that was essentially defeated. TELLER: Robert, you've all the influence now. Please. Urge them to continue my research on the Super. I neither can nor will, Edward. Why not? It's not the right use of our resources. Is that what you really believe? J. Robert Oppenheimer. Sphinx-like guru of the atom. Nobody knows what you believe.

Uh, sorry, Admiral. Stopped off to get this. It seems pretty favorable. COUNSEL: There's Oppenheimer. What's the caption? Uh, "J. Robert Oppenheimer, Strauss fought..." (soft music plays) "and the US won."

Do you? Hmm? GROVES: One final time, our program director, Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer. (applause) ROBERT: I hope that in years to come you will look back on your work here with pride. But today, that pride must be tempered with a profound concern.

Let me make this simple for you, gentlemen. According to my intelligence, which I cannot share with you, the Japanese people will not surrender under any circumstances short of a successful and total invasion of the home islands. Many lives will be lost, American and Japanese. The use of the atomic bomb on Japanese cities will save lives. If we retain moral advantage. - How so? - Well, if we use this weapon without informing our allies, they'll see it as a threat. And we'll be in an arms race. How open can we be with the Soviets? BUSH: Secrecy won't stop the Soviets from becoming part of the atomic world. We've been told they have no uranium. You've been misinformed. A Russian bomb is a matter of time. The program needs to continue at full pace after the war. Uh, Secretary Stimson, if I may... Not all scientists on the project are in agreement. In fact, this might be a moment to consider other opinions. - If you talk a scientist in... - GROVES: The Manhattan Project has been plagued from the start by certain scientists of doubtful discretion and uncertain loyalty. One of them just tried to meet with the president. Now, we need these men, but as soon as it's practical, we should sever any such scientists from the program. Wouldn't you agree, Doctor?
